I'm starting to think Ranked should be age restricted

I think one big mistake people make at Ray is holding their unite move. I think they’re waiting for that perfect penta kill ult, that moment never comes, they die without using ult. Its fine to have a less than perfect ult at Ray. Just throw it out there when you see a semi decent chance, its better to get half of the possible value from an ult than it is to get no value because you never used it.

Imo best way to describe how new people need to play defender is: You're useless if you don't have a team behind you to follow up and you're less valuable if your team is in front of you taking the hits.

Appreciate the tips! My Stardew Valley farm is thriving like never before!

Spragels (7:01): "Show up where your team is" Default game: *team distributed equally accross the map*

random thought but i hope they remove "thanks" from the quick chat feature because its so annoying when someone is just constantly spamming it

Hi Spragels! I think your new beginner guide videos are great and a very good resource for new players. It would be nice if you made a video about good resource management (coins, tickets, energy and enhancers), I struggled with this when I was starting Hope you have a nice day

Your tutorials are amazing Spragels, helped me out a lot when I started the game at launch, I honestly think watching tutorial videos like yours is the best way to get better at unite instead of trying to pay your way to victory.

What I have yet to see if a good video on what Pokémon play well with other Pokémon Comps. THAT would be an absolute crucial video for people to watch because they never pick Pokémon that complement well with the team which is pretty important quite often. Especially when it comes to matchups.

Greninja is actually really good as a ranged attacker, water shuriken has a ton of damage and it’s sorta surprising how many people have fallen for double team.

A team comp guide to show good/bad team compositions and how best to fill in would be awesome to accompany these beginner guide videos. Although it may be very situational it could be helpful.

How do i force my teammates to watch these amazing videos? They need it...

I usually come back to Pokemon Unite once a year, but this time I am sticking around. These beginner videos really help. Thank you!

Great video. The number of back-cappers at the end in year 2 of the game is just mind blowing

Go to every objective and Level up by making sure your jungle is basically always cleared. That's the 2 things I wish every player would know, whenever I'm in a match and I see someone that clearly just wants to score points is when I know I'm playing with a terrible player. I do blame that the game doesn't teach this well at all.

Really love this! Thanks so much spragels! Every single thing mentioned in the video is helpful! (only hopefully, players do be willing to spend 12 minutes watching this...)

For number 3 I feel like Pokémon like sableye are an exception considering his main job is to score and he could go score a huge ton of points behind the enemy fights because they are distracted by the objective

3:10 The ideal situation is that you are at least level 5 (1st evo) at the 8-minute mark and level 9 at the 6-minute mark. Level 9 by 5 minutes is acceptable if the team is in bad shape, but definitely agree that you have to do an Arteezy to get to those levels. Ideal level at the 2-minute mark is 13 and higher, but you want to be close to 12 by then. 5:50 Do remember that points double after the 2-minute mark. In the example given, you should score the 10 if it is not at that point yet. 10:55 As much as possible, try to break said shields away from your goal. The jump pads are not going to stun if they have shields up. Defensive advantage of being over your goal is also somewhat negated when the opponent has shields of their own.

My favorite content cowboy, I just want to say this, you are doing an amazing job casting at Worlds!!

No 1: Don’t play until Mewtwo is nerfed.

I play stacking items, I warn my teammates that I need to score previously to the game. Yeah, so few times my teammates understand this. I even let some energy for others, but many times they steal them from me. Currently I'm playing Umbreon support, because healing and securing enemies to MewTwo is too overpowered. The downside is that you need an intelligent random to play with you.

Another video idea: paying attention to who is stacking by looking at items everyone has. What items to look for and be aware and try to help your stackers when you can. Being aware they need farm to stack. Etc.

Is backcapping the norm nowadays? Ive had 3 games where backcappers told me, a mamoswine, a defender main, Im "stupid" for not helping them backcap. Holding off the enemy team as much as possible but seeing the game lose since Im the only one showing up for the match, and every player backcap while everyone scores and then go back to ray. Oh Ive been gone a while!

Great tips cowboy ✌🏼

What's hilarious is almost nobody who watches these videos needs these tips, and the people that do need these tips would never watch these kinds of videos.

As mostly solo q, I swear the people I get put with do the opposite of everything in this video and its so frustrating

The number 1 tip is nice... Except a lot of defender player i see backcap which makes ray fight a sad engage

This is why Spragels is a GOAT in this community. There are a lot of helpful and entertaining videos on the channel, and his casting is top tier. GOD-TIER, dare I say?

everyone was in wartortle hell.

Back in the Zap days, Dreadnaw was the most important lane objective. You'd defend your goal and try to break the opponent's to give you an advantage for it. Now that we have Theia Sky Ruins, which of the 2, the regi trio or regieleki, is the most important to gun for?

Played a game earlier as glaceon where the enemies cinderace never hit level 5. They surrendered at 1 minute left still with a level 4 on there team it was so funny

Spragels could you make a guide on how to not throw when you're winning cuz a lot of my teammates just don't understand that you don't rip ray for the enemies to steal it when you're winning

I am playing only with Ursifu and Syther/Scizor, because they can fit in team. Example, if Syther gets nerf I can use Scizor instead

I used to backcap all the time now i know ray is way better than 100 points :/

In low rank, the enemies never go to rayquaza. But in high rank, your team never goes to rayquaza

I understand how important it is to get to level 8 or 9 to evolve and get your unite move. But it feels impossible with blastoise sometimes

Unite should just put a KZfaq link to this video in the tutorial, because this actually learns people how this game works and how to play with your team, unlike most of my SoloQ teammates.

Leaf Tornado Eldegoss got me 25 assists in a match with a comfey who got 22 assists. I would always come back to play Leaf Tornado over Pollen Puff.

Accidentally going in to ranked and bullying the enemy team is another one

Jake has cured my depression

9:40 *Laughs in dragapultian*

I love your videos! Just can’t get out of veteran rank no matter how hard I try 😢

Can we be distraction in raquaza fights?

As a defender main my attackers wait till I die before contesting a fight at Rayquaza and it disappointing then thank me when they die lol

I wish knew charmeleon could evolve when I started, that would have saved me hundreds of games

Playing from season 3 still watching this💀

idk spagels today i played scoring wiggly, we lost ray but i scored so much as a roll out wiggly that they still lose. I think really depends on teammates and team comp

The only time I don't do team fights is when my team is lower level and keeps losing every team fight so people get pissed when I stop to farm to catch up I don't bother with pointless team fights

The first Pokemon you should take as your starter should be Eldegoss. As it's one of the most consistently good Pokemon in the game and you don't need too much mechanical skill in order to play them. But you should understand how to use Elde and not throw your Pollen Puff when your Slowbro is at 10% HP. I beg you.

Buzzuwool or dragonite or urhifu which is best

Video summary: 1. Expand your pokemon rooster (preferably each from different roles) [if your team already has 2 or more attackers, please for the love of god pick pokemon from the other roles] 2. focus on evolving your pokemon if it's close to it's evolution levels by maybe grind some levels when enemy is also playing it safe. 3. Scoring is important, but look at your team situations (Map awareness). 4. Showing up to get the Objectives (Regieleki, Bottom Regis, Rayquaza) or Try to contest them against the enemy teams 5. Prioritize Rayquaza at the late game, try to get it or zone enemies away from it, Make sure you safe your unite move for this moment

1:51 He said... "Zoroark"... OMG!! Jake prime's been replaced!! 😱

Can we get a video about how to determine and respect if teammates are duoing or trioing together... I am sick and tired of solo q players taking the same lane as my duo partner despite the fact that we called it first

This is the kind of tutorial the game needs to have instead of the false bot self confidence that it teaches

wow its my first time seeing a video posted 3 mins ago

"Enough speedsters" So I guess enough means none.

Hey Jake i used to play a lot and want to get back in but I don’t understand so many new characters and feel a little lost and overwhelmed any tips ?

Damn Stardew Valley is fire isn't it Jake

You cant tell me not to play comfey with lane razor leaf decidueye

Yo yo yo i was just in this one game and a stupid cinderace used his unite move on a half hp alteria 😂

5 things to make you win EVERD SINGLE MATCH: 1. Use Mewtwo Y 2. Have blissey 3. Have X attack 4. Use the top player's recommended held items 5. Hold down the A button as good as possible

By the way whats up early veiwers you got that bell on 🛎

Based on pings and jerks on mics, I'd say the biggest issue with solo queue is people having a bad attitude early in the game. If youre mad at teammates in the first 2 minutes, you gotta chill. This game has absurd comeback mechanics if you just keep your cool all the way through.

Me:watches this video Goes into ranked: comfey mewtwo zacian inteleon and buzzwole on the enemy team

#1 tip is do not steal the buffs and din't ATk requaza alone

Great guide! I think subscribing to your channel is actually a good tip though. Because if you're not looking for information on how to improve in Unite you probably won't improve much.

I see too many people only going for bottom and the other team destroys the top before Rayquaza even comes

Thing i wish i knew: EXP SHARE IS OP Thing i wish my team mates knew: EXP share is op, stick the f* with me

When I play support I always spam "avoid fighting before level up" because they keep dying to the enemies 3 levels underlevelled and don't stop trying to fight them, I'm just confused what's the problem with farming xp, they just keep feeding the enemy even under levelled

How about the speedsters choosing a favorite lane bc its so annoying how they just pick a lane to only help while the other one is suffering 😔

Honestly idk why there's sm hate for greninja - water shuriken is still insane and I'm often getting 90-110k damage per game with him

noted

Um... So Jake, how about a fresh tier list? 😊

Yee

When Rayquaza gets nerfed I will do a hard party 😂

I do number 5 in standard matches

Amazing as it is, the number of players watching is so minimal that it kinda pointless

I’ve played roughly 2800 matches and still haven’t ever played slobro

I feel like people keep forgetting that its just a game and you play it to have fun. In reality, the higher your rank, the more stress you have.

Bruh i just bougt zoroark💀

Its so annoying how people even in ultra or low master dont show up for rayquazza and are off getting their butt smacked on an enemy goalzone

guys should i get comfey or goodra or dragonite or umbreon or garchomp

Can i get a heart havent got one from your channel and if been subbed a while by the way im first 😅

I use number 4 to pound noobs while they are low level as they stay low level LOL

Playing stacking items with crap multipliers on their attacks.

This video should play before you are allowed to start playing the game for the first time.

I have season 10 11 12 rank stickers, so I don't need to get 1600

I like grenninja

hey sprangels why does pokemon unite gives me foe that is higher rank than me

6:27 Pokemon Disband

Spragles pls heart this comment also bless me with ur spectator energy me and my duo are bout to start a climb to masters

I lost FIVE CONSECUTIVE TIMES IN A ROW..... I now lost the will to go on... In other words..., I GIVE UP...

I want master rank tip

Im good with many pok3mon but my favorite and gold ribon i have is Sabley *get banned*

dude I just wish your content was obligatory content of the game's tutorial and people have to succeed in an one hour multiple choice test before being allowed for ranked matches

i picked charizard as a starter, i regret it.

tip number 1.5 if youre trash play support till youre not

😃😁

1:46 slowbro is too slow 😮‍💨😮‍💨.

I just hate how i need to watch this kind of thinks instead of chilling wiith my own caus i dont want my teamates to lose bcz they have trash teammate like me Like i like crustle but its trash , using it would be not nice in ranked or standar either There are a no game mode where i can just CHILL
