Guy in a celestial buff kills a guy with an arcane buff.

No skill to see here, move on.

If you watch the full VOD, I take on a number of people with celestial buffs.

His point is that you killed the guy with the arcane buff. I haven't seen the VOD, but it's much easier to takedown this arcane guy versus another celestial.

Not sure why people seem unimpressed. That was actually pretty damn amazing. Did you guys seriously do serp blindfolded too? haha

We tried but we had a couple new people who weren't doing good at 5th room and so he took it off haha. But one day it will the the whole room

With that gear you could probably let a cat play with the keyboard and still win

It's actually not hard:

Get high gear

Approach

Listen to stereo sound to see where the attacks are coming from

Do combos and remember how much mana each consumes so you know when to pots and what not

The entire VOD is located here: http://www.twitch.tv/ckeep/b/625031353

I'm happy to answer questions about playing without sight if anyone has any.

So it seems like you're just going off of sound. Then when you know you have them close enough, You imprison and button smash combos?

He can see through the thin cloth.

I mean that's what everyone wants to say, But honestly going off of sound is simple also.. If you're melee that is.

Yep, that's the gist of it. Any melee class should be able to do this easily.

>game is hard

Ohh_Yeah•

Pretty obvious that you can see through the cloth to some degree. About halfway through the match you start spending way too much time correctly facing the target as you strafe around each other. The opponent never actually ends up behind you or on the bottom half of the screen.

TS > Shield Slam > Bull Rush > Mirror's Light > Imprison > (if imprison hits) Precision Strike > Boastful Roar

Or another way you can see is just, how p2w it is. The guy with celestial buff just destroyed a guy with arcane buff, blindfolded. Or it's just what you could call "skill". Either way it's still gear > anything else atm.

Has better gear, must be p2w.

I love how he was circling the target at the end. So blind

What better way to honor a game and its creators than to exclude the visual work they did with the mechanics and show off its ease blindfolded.....
