Used to play halo 3/reach competitively and theater mode (watching games) was a big thing. Things that might make this more informative is pausing and asking/answering questions. Not that it’s bad and like a lot of other vod review it’s watch and add commentary. In halo one of things to ask is 1. Why did person A die. 2. Did we make them earn it (wasting time) and was it avoidable You kind of mentioned him dying near the second turret (forget what everything is called, guardian?) And you could go back and see if you saw those people on the mini map and see if that was the right play for him to push so deep solo or if he had other things he could do if he doesn’t have the info (I know in this you can see everyone, but if you saw 2 in blue and now they aren’t there) Also something at the end of games Make sure you go over positives/negatives of the game Positives Laning phase vs latch he used bridge very well not to get hurt to badly and used his 3 to get damage himself. When he used 3s he landed quite a lot. Obviously in high mmr that’s going to happen but when reviewing your own gameplay and you’re struggling, reviewing what yourself and better people. That can be one of the differences Rotated a few times and was able to get few kills without anyone on his side dying. Didn’t get yanked when attacking left middle second turret. Either communication/mini map or playing enough, he knew paradox or someone could be coming The item he bought for melee kept him from hitting paradox shield. But the juke to try to force the parry was good Negatives Dying on right side by himself. Could have possibly went after farms, esp when you have monster rounds. This was a 20 min game without it being particularly close, but rarely saw it be useful outside of laning phase Don’t think second death was as bad as first. With having hindsight, maybe he could have been more direct after haze death? Could have abused the breakables more. Third death was weird. Started the interaction with 3 in right. He had wrath and abrams is dead more towards left. There’s no enemy in sight on right and don’t know if he can see pocket in left with lane pushed all the way up there. But with no follow up, using ult to attack instead of to live or not use it at all is an option. Or when he throws bomb and goes to building, staying up there to help protect second turret. Without backup, going in there was a bold choice. Good players should always get that kill and prob didn’t need to use haze ult Last death If this is a pub, prob very little communication. And sometimes it’s hard to get people to push together, so going from 0 to 100 can make it easier. But usually someone is going to get picked, but he made it very easy for his team to finish game off. If you compare the ending of this game to others, this seemed very smooth regardless of the death
OMG YES been silently hoping for a piggy vod review and you deliver! Amazing content as usual, keep it up brother! Edit: would defo be open to a personal match review some time in the future if you end up doing those
I personally don’t really see the point of buying melee charge for this build- if they’re in your stone form stun then they’re in melee range already. Ivy can also reload during her stone form so the reload doesn’t seem that good either. Melee lifesteal seems cheaper and more valuable, or even close quarters for the damage boost.
building full melee is very cheap, and ivy benefits from it greatly. melee charge lets you do a lot more mixups, and the reload is invaluable if you dont build ammo perks and utilize sliding often. I think melee charge + enduring speed + burst fire is an amazing way to manage ammo economy (because these 3 get you to 10 move speed allowing you to slide from sprint)
just from this vod it seems like a playstyle diff. the stun gets (marginally) more value but moreso hes just super confident with movement while frontlineing and gets insane value from quick, raw punches
@@clem564this, i mean makes sense because early game ivys gun damage is pretty mid, but the fast rate of fire somewhat balances it out. Just weird. Seems more like someone playing melee ivy/as a bruiser support lol
I've been using a modified version of Piggy's build for quite a while now and have had a lot of success with it. IMO Ivy's biggest strength is her versatility.

Make sure you go over positives/negatives of the game

Thanks a lot. These are great suggestions. I can definitely work some of this into future videos
Really awesome breakdown, learned a lot. This channel's gonna go places bro ❤
Loving your videos man, I used your Lady Geist build last night to shut down a fed Infernus. Keep it up!
Before this, piggy was one of the best players in THE FINALS
Great vod review
Ya I watched him a lot when the Finals came out and he was grinding ranked

Ya I think this build is pretty unique. Right now the game is in a good state because a lot of the characters have multiple viable builds
i run a very similar build. its mostly for bursting down large jungles really early (combined with monster rounds)

Great video Eskie! Could we get an analysis of a Seven player soon?
Yes definitely going to do Seven soon

Lets gooo
Great video man! Stay healthy, it seemed like your voice was getting a little hoarse in the middle there. We wouldn't want to lose you!
