I was expecting this to be wrong. But every point made is valid. Wonderful to see people making videos that will help out newer and more veteran players.
+mrperson132 glad you found value my dude, that's huge and I appreciate you letting me know! Always great to make videos that I enjoy but also help others in some way.
I just wanted to say Rayn, that it's so incredible of you to bring out these videos to teach everyone how to become a better smite player. In all honesty, your own mentality is just amazing and I love learning from people like you. All your videos really have helped me, and thousands of others I know it! So stay awesome with your content because you deserve more subs than this!
Raynday's passive-Devine Presence-Raynday speaks for every 6 seconds and allies around him will be motivated giving them an atk speed buff and damage buff for 10 seconds
Thank u for ur videos!! I started playing smite abt 2 months ago and struggled up to level 24 mainly only playing mages. A few days ago started watching videos on gameplay and with a random youtube search found u. I have only watch abt 5 in between gameplay, but now I'm a level 28 and I play without struggle now. I feel I'm still a beginner but I have went from 2/15/8 to 5/2/18(for example average) and I still lose more than I win, I def have more confidence now that I will get really good. Thank you!!!!
Very informative video..not sure why some people think the video wouldn't offer any good info for new players. Hell, I'm a seasoned player and still learned at least one thing from the video so it was definitely worth a watch! Thanks for the tips bruh keep doing what you do!!
Raynday...these videos are too good man >_> You should make videos on tactics too like Rotations, Counter-Builds, Counter-Picks and Team Composition. Seriously dude idk how you script these but they flow so well it's like you've been teaching for years...keep it up dude!
Thank you my friend! To be honest they are all one take, so I record them line after line with no script, just flowing with what I feel I should say next. When it sounds good, and I think the point is covered, I move on to the next line/joke/whatever. Almost always how I've worked and it makes for a very creative, in the moment flow. Only thing I have scripted before hand are the bullet points of the lists. For instance, what the top 5 ways to be a better mage are lol. I don't make that up on the spot.
Hey, thanks Raynday. I watched this video and kept in mind these tips for my next few games. I didn't die for 3 games straight, and got 6-8 kills per game. These tips are really good
i really appreciate you as a smite player and as a mentor for smite because i have gotten much better at smite from your videos. you actually explain so much more then pros do. it helps alot and thank you! keep up the great work.
Just discovered you yesterday and I've just been going through all your uploads. Not necessarily for smite help, but more so for your positive attitude and outside the box outlook on things. Loving your channel bro. Glad I subbed.
Great video! Positioning and understanding ability utility is important. As an Ah Puch main, it feels great to completely end an unfavorable teamfight by laying down my ultimate and watching everyone scatter. lol. Can't wait for your video on hunters, the class I'm the worst at.
Fantastic video again man!! This has been by far my favorite series and it's clear how much love, attention and detail you put into these. Also got to say, some of those snipes were hot!. I've been working a bit on getting better at mages especially since I'm so used to playing hunters that it feels weird to have to wait for cooldowns to do anything :P. Being a bit more patient and just waiting for the right opportunity to us my abilities instead of using them early on really makes a difference. I know I'll never be amazing at a mage but every now and then when I do have to fill the role I want to make sure I can do the best I can.
Hey dude loved the video mage player here and also RU-vidr those tips were good my position some times is my biggest weakness I have been a nox main a while and recent convert to the baron as well
Love your vid. Can't wait to see your Top 5 ways to become a better Warrior player. I know you will see more Hercules players more often after you made that vid, because i will be one of them.
+Afrika Smith check it out, I already made that video! Go to my channel and you'll see the how to be a better player series and all of the videos there. I only don't have hunters done!
your magic exceeds that of Harry Potter's Raynday. You are the Origin of magic. Hirez got the whole "mage" thing from looking at you. keep up the good work
Yeah this was actually helpful. Most others just like to hear themselves talk but you brought up valid points and in hindsight of course I knew I should have been doing some of these that I wasn't. Thank you.
Hey Raynday, thanks so much for these videos, I'm new to smite and my Bellona and Amaterasu games improved leaps and bounds after you're warrior video. Looking forward to improving my mid-lane games now
There is an option in the settings that shows the mana cost of each ability in the corner of it's icon on your ability bar. It still means that you would be doing on-the-go math, but it greatly facilitates it. I personally play with this on all the time. I figure that the more information that I have, the better.
Great video, i really love your tips, they are very helpful. In my opinion the rule number 3 could be changed to "count your mana and cooldowns". Not killing or not escaping because part of your kit is down when engaging/overstepping can prove to be as fatal as lack of mana. That doesn't mean your CDR must be as high as possible because that might actually kill your potential depending on how you build, but you must know when your skills are avaliable, and if you recklesly use part of your kit when it will be useable again. -EXAMPLE- try zoning enemies out of your tower with zk expose evil (1) right before a wave, and you wont be using it to heal and stack your passive when you really need to, even if the rest of your kit is up.
Yo, I've wait for videos like this from you just to learn more, and perfect what I know and teach to others, and it's great how you learn the same things you know from the perspective and view of another person, keep it up Raynday, I'll be waiting for the last role which is the one role trying to main and get better, the hunter :D
Well, there you go again Ranyday, making a top video, bringing all the good and helpful informations to improve our mage play, making me laugh here and there and of course not to mention the goosebumps at the end as well.. I know why I always keep watching you with such a hype and leaving you like always the like you deserve man - keep up the goood work and have a wonderful day sir.
Another great video Raynday. I love these how to vids and they're helping me to become a better Smite player-so keep it up. Btw, have any open spots in your clan?
Thank you so much for this guide, I'm the rare player who got the support and solo roles down easily but struggles with anything glass cannon-ey, and I always dread going midlane, but hopefully this will help
just throw yourself in, i played janus mid earlier and never played mid before in conquest. i did surprisingly well and ended up with the 2nd most kills on my team. just position yourself right and watch out for ganks. also don't over extend
New guy here some how I gravitated to kukuklan mostly and now I see I like mages and I'm very new and keep getting owned, but I'm getting better thanks for the vid
Very informative, Wish i had this when i first started playing. I love the Video man. Keep up the amazing content. Your videos always make me smile and make me want to be a better smite player. This made my day along with playing a Casual and seeing Zapman in my game. I wish you the best of luck with all your goals and dreams. :D
subbed. I'm a mage addict lol for the mana issue i insist Book of Thoth always. if its ur first maxed item. by level 7 it'll have 75 stacks. so from there on out it gives magic power increase and almost unlimited mana. my KuKulkhan build is a glass cannon with level20 magical power at 934/900. I broke the game XD
wow, i really enjoy your vids, not just the content, but the message you left on top of it, how you are always that positive , one of my favorite youtubers and content-creator, no doubt
dragontyron both of them works like a "bridge" between arena and conquest. its a way for arena players to feel comfortable queueing for conquest. problem is that we can only have 1 of those modes, and since they moved Siege to the buttom its a sign that clash is staying and Siege is leaving
Huh, I don't recall seeing this mentioned. I could very well be blind though. Joust serves the role too, since you learn more about jungling and laning without worrying about multiple lanes. I'd place it on the step between Arena and Clash. Clash is more of a bridge than Siege is, I feel, because Siege has the extra component of siege minions, which is definitely not a thing in Conquest. Yes, its jungle is way bigger than that of Clash, but the mode is its own entity, as it were. You play Siege for the extra nuances it brings, more than you play it as an "I want to learn Conquest." This also means that it's likely not going away anytime soon. Plus, due to its smaller size, Clash is faster. Players like that, since they don't have to invest huge amounts of time into it like they do for the larger two maps.
I have a suggestion for a video Rayn! How about "How to adapt" I get caught out in a few games not knowing what to build for the current situation. Do I choose health, defense or power? I struggle trying to get it right and usually stick to what I think works best, but ultimately it isn't always right. Would love some help and I'm sure some others would. Keep up the good work and I hope you hit that 50k soon enough!
I never thought of using Scyllas ult as an escape tool. That's genius, actually. Thanks for that useful tip, my friend. I also have a couple of questions regarding Scyllas early midlane-clearing for you veterans out there: How does she compare against the likes of Ra, He-bo and Kukulkan? Can she outlane them easily or will she have a hard time doing so?
If you get soulstone, damage pot, and damage buff....her clear is amazing! She can pretty much clear an entire wave at level 1. In my opinion, Scylla is pretty much the top mage right now. (In the right hands)
scylla was the first character i got to lvl X, her moves are so good she clears lanes really quickly. once i used my ult on a guy that had full health to scare him off a teammate so he wouldn't die lol dude turned around real quick. now I'm working on janus, i really like his moves a lot since i feel like he can be a good support for getaways. i had a friend running away from 4 enemies and i cast a portal right under him, to my surprise all 4 fell in and my friend actually made it out :D
+Kiro Shift No its smart. Not only do you get faster, you are cc immune. Plus mages, especially scylla, are not normally seen with sprint. I don't know why you would sacrifice a relic for an uncommon situation like this
Thanks for this!! Will be sharing with my friends who want to learn to mage. Being a mage main myself it was a great refresher video!! I will be working on counting my mana for sure now!! Thanks man!
I'm gonna have to say these feel incredibly forced to be as long as they are. You reiderate the same point so much it makes it nigh impossible to stay focussed. I'm training some newbies to smite, some played past moba's some have not and was looking for any form of tutorial videos that might explain things so i don't have too. But these are not concise and clear by a long shot, and are at the point of rambling. You have a "list" format which is the only semblance of structure the video has. Once you delve into a point you just ramble too much. the kakarot line was a bit left field.
Ferriano Rayn just gives tips. He doesnt tell you how to play like a pro player would. This is more of a entry-level guide of playing mage than a tutuorial lining up the specifics. Smite is a hard game to teach. A lot of things you just pick up by habbit, and you can't teach habbits.
Pavorish I get that but this is a 12 minute video that could easily be said in 4-7 minutes with no actual information lost what so ever. I'm just trying to give him constructive criticism so that he knows why I'm unable to use his videos as a entry level guide for new players. it's too rambling.
