Red face Taurucis's Guide to Alliance Battling

Last Saturday I got pretty disgusted at how poorly the Kurzicks were doing... so I decided to make a video that explains the basics of AB. I haven't made a GW video yet (all I make are really demented Oblivion videos...) so perhaps some of you more experienced video makers can give me some advice?

Nice concept,

Some notes though: some texts pass by too quickly.

Try to avoid unnecessary material. (parts that do not show anything valuable)

Fit in some music its better than all the clicking sounds ^^

Not bad for someone without experience!

*don't show the luxons please*

Nice interrupting btw

Yeah, I seem to have serious issues in any video I make, where the subtitles go by too fast. It's happened for every single one. I'm a little squeamish about putting in music because of all the copyright stuff flying around YouTube >_> And of course I'm going to show in the Luxons... its only fair, and let's say a Luxon who doesn't know how to AB is watching the video.

As for the "unnecessary material" I admit, that was just me showing off while interrupting.

I don't know how to exactly respond to notLurker... will "ty ^_^" work?

Be sure to add "avoid mobbing" for the Kurzick side...it is always their down fall when they try to attempt in when they're on the Luxon maps
And possibly stress the point to always go after the monk in the area...that point is never stressed enough.

Cool idea to have an AB instructional video. I've seen write ups about it, this is the first time I get to watch it with subtitles

Very good video, very clear as well. This is good for beginners. However, maybe you could say why it's best to kill the MM before the minions, etc. Explain these small things that seem obvious to many of us, but not to the beginners.
