This is the first PvP video I've ever put out and it was a 24 hour project. All of the footage was taken in a 24 hour period and it was published in that same period. There is virtually no editing sans the addition of music and this movie was generally made to show what the first few weeks of arena are probably going to look like for a rogue. This video was not planned in advance, but just kind of came together.

I started doing skirms around 6 PM server and just started recording matches with random partners and it caught on from there. The only parts where I am using vent at all are the parts where I was working with guildmates (Altoids/Kenza). Altoids had never done arena on a Shaman so if you're wondering what happened there it was mostly us going "oh **** lol." I actually enjoyed this project as it confirmed some of my ideas about arena. Mutilate, by and long, seemed the most powerful specc to me after a full day of arena.

The specc I used for mutilate is shown in the video along with my gear at the start and the Shadow Dance specc is: http://www.wowhead.com/?talent=fbxcoeZZebbdhGdbhzAcRt. The macro used is just a very simple bar switch macro which I screw up horribly several times.

This was really my first time walking into arena in almost 2 months now, so looking at the mistakes, I can't say I'm particularly surprised, but with Kenza I had a perfect record except for one disconnect. I'm aware I blind into an IB once etc. etc. This is really just me playing, not picking my best Neilyo clips for everyone to fawn over. Sometimes I vanish stuff, sometimes I don't!

Frankly, I would not watch this video as a skill video at all. There are many times garrote would've been 10x better than ambush but I was playing for entertainment purposes and doing more of a damage test(and yes our damage is clearly OP pre-resil). I'll probably put out another video in the future once serious arena comes around and winning actually matters.

In the video you will see everything from Challengers with downsies to Gladiators in vent and you will see a hell of a lot of Death Knights. There is also a very brief dueling section which resulted from the question of how much damage I can pump out on a healer.It's definitely repetitive in some parts which is probably a side effect of my very novice movie making skills so if it gets redundant to you, I've itemized what's in it so you can skip ahead.
