Some backstory to this video if anyone is interested. Kinda long though. I initially wanted to make this video 3 years ago, but I never did. I recorded a lot of footage, tons of good stuff, and kinda just never worked on it. I.. don't really know why. It's not that I forgot. In fact, it has been in my head mostly every other day, even more and more as time went on, but no progress. Nothing. Maybe my mental problems. Idk. Anyway. Fast forward to about 6-7 months ago from present day, I took notice of one of Marblr's videos, mainly the 5 Million DMG Mitigated one. Something just clicked after watching that. I got determined, and I actually started working on it. Thing is, though, due to my content 3 years ago being from OW1, kind of outdated, I had to do it all over again, even though the numbers back then were higher. (at least they were... the final part of the video blows it out of the water. lol) I had to make a choice though. I thought for a while in what style to make the video, and in the end, I decided to make it in this style. I've always kinda wanted to try and make a video in this style ever since I first watched a video from the KZfaqr "shounic" long long ago. First time I saw one of those it was really cool to me and I remember kinda wanting to learn more about it, perhaps that's why seeing Marblr also ignited something within, cause his videos are pretty similar too. So, I started. And oh boy was it an adventure with A LOT of ups and downs. I had near zero experience in making this type of stuff, I had no idea what I was getting into. Sure, I had some editing experience, but it was very basic if you ask me. I had to learn and unlearn so many things for this project. First of all, I tried to make this video for a while in my old editing software, Vegas Pro 16, and yeah that didn't go well very fast. It was laggy, and several things I wanted to do were just painful to do, slow, and annoying. So I had to try something else. After a bit, I found DaVinci Resolve. I've never used different editing software before, so this was an experience of itself. I struggled for a good while, even almost wanting to return to my previous cause I couldn't figure it out. But as I kept going, I knew the pain was eventually going to get bigger to handle in Vegas than learning Resolve. For example, the "simple" background effect you see me use throughout the video (at the time, unfinished, unanimated, by the way) made the preview be like 2 fps, and sometimes even wanted to crash; I knew I couldn't stay for long, so I had to shift. Eventually, I got more or less the same skillset in Resolve as I had in Vegas, but a lot slower at the time. I remade what I had in Vegas in Resolve. It wasn't much, it was mostly just cuts here and there and 1-2 effects but it got me a grasp of the basics. Let's talk about outside of Resolve for a little bit. I also had to learn how to use the Workshop properly. During this time, the Workshop was literally disabled. I had to learn in Notepad. I had no idea what I was doing, but I needed to learn how to make some of the basic "cinematics" you see throughout the video. Fortunately I did have programming experience beforehand, so I knew what I wanted to do in theory, I just didn't know the syntax.. which I couldn't easily get cause the Workshop was offline. Nice. I had to take a bunch of custom games made from other people and paste them into notepad to view the code. It was a messy experience at the beginning, but eventually I got pretty decent at it... With all the typical programming misadventures that tend to happen. Still remember some of those extremely silly errors. Beside that, I also had to learn how the heck to even make these effects and backgrounds in the first place. Initially, I wanted to make a lot more and/or different better ones, but my brain was too small for that, so I made this one and a few extras and moved on. This was overwhelming enough for me already. Back to Resolve. My goodness. Looking back, my workflow was really bad sometimes, and I made so many mistakes stacked on mistakes. I cannot count how many times I had to go back and readjust stuff cause I messed something up, or cause I changed my mind about something / got a new idea, or something broke, etc. It cost me so much time and willpower. Especially further down the road cause there are just more and more layers in the project. For example, I honestly don't like doing voiceovers that much, so I left it for close to last. Big mistake. Even though I tried to more or less make everything prepared for when I do the voiceover, it did not match like 60% of the video. I had to move and readjust my entire timeline so many damn times, recreate many of the transitions, taking a long time, at the risk of potentially breaking something. It wasn't nice. I'm honestly not too happy with some parts of the video, but I really did not want to rewrite, code, record, voiceover, edit, again and again. Too many times. Should I have? Probably. But it was just too much too often. If I had to say one word about this project, I'd say overwhelming. It was too big for me, I should've made something smaller and then progressed. As time went on, I was really feeling myself not wanting to do this anymore. It was physically painful to work on it for like a month at one point, I had to stop. I was just too tired of learning everything and failing at everything. Even recently when I'm so close to the finish line, when I should be the very motivated in theory, I just didn't want to keep going frequently. After I passed the mental block I did enjoy the process again though for some time, but it was hard to get into it almost everyday. I have to admit though, I did learn a lot. I persevered in the end, this made me learn so much more than I probably ever thought I would. It still isn't much compared to some stuff I've seen, but I'm honestly really happy with the result in the end, and I want to make more, that's all that matters. And I know that it will be SO MUCH easier moving forward. I have made so many mistakes, which means I have learned a lot of what I should not do. Recently, the big PvE for Overwatch was cancelled, too. You know, being probably one of if not the biggest PvE player for the game, this shook me to the core. This for a day or two completely shut down my progress for the video. I felt completely done. But after some time, I knew that I can't just abandon this project. I spent way too much fucking time on it to just let it never come out. So, in the end, the cancellation was actually a really good motivator. If I finished this, I could finally move on, and so I will. To some extent I would hope this is my last Overwatch video, but it probably won't be. I might make another video, maybe I won't, I don't know. Time will tell. Either way, I'm happy. I have ideas coming outside of Overwatch which I hopefully will be able to achieve sometime soon now, we will see how it goes. If any one of you read all of this, I thank you very much, friend. I just hope you actually enjoyed the video lol also i swear if i let an editing mistake slip somewhere i'm gonna be malding okay bye

damn, this damage is almost enough to kill Orisa

hero: **exists** roadhog: **rapidly aproaching their position**

that one unemployed friend on mondays:

"As you can see, sombra has already wrecked the universe with her EMP, but we can do better!"

The roadhog appearing after the 4 bap deadeye genuinely scared me.

rip cass spinbotting for infinite damage multiplier

I seriously love the humor with Roadhog. Wonderful video.

this is how it feels to get hit by orisa spear tbh

I don't think that's enough damage. I think we need 1 quintillion damage for it to be enough

I didn't expect the absurdly good production quality, but if I had expected it, you still would have exceeded my expectations.

the roadhog killing everyone made me die laughing every time

The editing is top tier. 3:28 the random no-clipping hog had me laughing my ass off 😭😭😭

I love the edits and roadhog randomly killing heroes

8:34 I love the Undertale reference here, the humor in this video is incredible

That Roadhog jumpscare was incredible lmao

That DVA transition was so fucking cool. Absolutely deserved every single like and views, and you need more

The production quality of this was so good I thought this was Marblr's channel until you credited him for a discovery! I started following you for your PVE content years ago and I hope you're able to continue with anything OW related

Clicked for the numbers, stayed for the Roadhog appearing, jumpscare and doing silly things

"blizzard must have broke something again" is the most apt way to explain OW2 to outsiders

I love the entire sequence of events at 0:24

I really hope this video gets more attention, this is extremely well made and you clearly put a ton of effort into it, and you deserve it.

8:54 had me laughing so hard

Junkrat shooting barriers all match: "Look what they need to mimic a fraction of our power"

Damn! Your editing skills are on another level. Loved the sketches with the characters and unspoken contexts! You are a very good storyteller.

Very well edited, deserves a ton of respect and views!

It is actually fun to see drg everywhere. ROCK AND STONE TO THE BONE!

Woah, the undertale refrence at 8:35 made me subscribe to you. This is an incredibly high quality video, especially the roadhog stuff at the beginning was hilarious. Please keep it up. Quality, Information, Humour and refrences - damn. Such a good video. EDIT: 9:57 - OneShot music? ONESHOT? Eleventh Hour? Oh my goodness I am in LOVE.

"Bro he is one shot" The one shot in question:

Unrelated, but, I _love_ your editing style, the clean transishions and all the little character interactments to help explain stuff. Im a visuale lerner so its a really nice touch and I never acctuly had to rewind witch was super nice! Thank you

3:18 Volskaya Jumpscare. Awesome video!

Nice! Thank you for pouring so much time into alle the workshop scripts as well as into the neat visuals, keeping the video entertaining ♥

6:34 that’s almost enough health to survive a bastion ult form, impressive

Incredible editing. Good story telling. Just a really good video. But 278 views? How is youtube that bad at recommending good channels?

Some of the best editing ive seen so smooth and clean and a wonderful easy to understand vid to boot! Loved it

Fabulous video, felt like watching a Marblr video (all compliments intended) the graphics and explanations were amazing! Cannot wait to watch more of you!

Such a well presented and explained video! Awesome job.

I thought it'll be another Marblr video, then I heard your voice. I'm not disappointed

With this we can finally kill a junker queen

i love when people go this crazy with spaghetti code. amazing production and explanations, and the hero change transitions were funny enough to keep me more engaged than i already was! keep it up!!

absolutely love the goofs and side bits you put into the background footage, very cool!

I love your editing! Such an entertaining and well put together video!

Amazing quality. Great flow and keeping the topic easy to follow along.

This was so well made love the graph background thing and how Dva can grab people and can move them and the hog flying 😂

Never in my whole time playing this game I have seen such high quality informational video. Gained a like a sub

Amazing video, love it. Also the cinematic are amazing and very eye catching/engaging

I love these types of videos! I am so happy I found a youtuber who does goofy things like this. Keep it up!

You know a video is phenomenal when you have to rewatch it just to see those great transitions. Everything about this video was perfect. Only complaint I have is it felt like it was over too quickly, just means I get to rewatch more though. Cheers!

This is amazing production quality! Love the drg music too, 10/10

kinda hopeful to see people still put this much effort into content about overwatch despite the state of the game. Hilarious and super fun video, good job man!

this video''s production is outstanding!! the editing and formating had me very engaged. Overall great vid!!

I'm glad Marblr is having influence in other creators as well, hope to see more of this channel. This style of editing is perfect for overwatch

This video was incredibly well made! loved the usage of emotes, voicelines, and movement expressiveness in the heroes. The editing was top notch, and you did a really good job at explaining all the techical stuff in a way my smooth river pebble of a brain could understand. Thank you for putting the time, effort, and energy into making the video, and all the testing necessary to do so. This is the first of your content ive seen, but I definitely hope to see more in the future!

fantastic humor, great editing, high effort that clearly paid off. i look forward to your future content even if you move away from ow2

this is incredibly well made with some really funny edits! also oneshot ost so instant sub

Great video with insane production value and quality for such a small channel. the music was great too, DRG music is goated and wasnt expecting to be punched in the feels by the surprise Oneshot ost XD

the definition of a passion projiect. he opens the video w such a philosophical tone

masterfully crafted vid my g, am proud of you

Really high quality stuff! Props :D

This video was incredible!! Definitely hitting a noti and hoping for more

Underrated channel keep it up man🔥

This is best Carrier video to date, *_awesome masterpiece_* great editing, transitions, narration, structure and interesting topic to research, looks like this one took a while to cook. (I wonder how long) Carrier really surpassed himself here. An excellent sequel to original damage video Cool to see this guy improve Weather he streams or makes awesome pieces like this or anything in between I hope he keeps going and doesn't quit and make *more awesome stuff!* Keep up the good work my friend!

u deserve all the subscribers that will come to you this video was very well made and edited

Great video! Loved the transition into Dva

amazing video with amazing music choices, truly a video ever

Wow I just watched a 13 minute video about damage and I enjoyed it, great job

Commenting to help the algorithm spread this video around more! Very interesting information and awesome editing

This was very high quality. Kudos!

Loved this video so much! :D

Awesome video dude ! Really interesting and funny. I remember you, camping the top leaderboard of every PvE mode with your friends, all with the hammond player icon. You guys are legends. I hope you feel OK about what this dellusional OW2 PvE mode has become. I personnaly stopped playing overwatch, but im happy to see such quality content on the game that i love. So thank you, and i wish you the best.

This video is so well edited, I don't even play overwatch but this was really enjoyable

I was not expecting to go through this video laughing. This is amazing quality and the gags made me laugh.

This is such a good video! Really really engaging well done!!

8:13 who else paused to figure out the math 😂

God damn... The editing level of this video is 15/10 Expectations shattered.. Sub earned my guy! keep the content coming please!

The amount of details and stuff going in background is just incredible. Congrats!

Very well made video. The editing and everything.

9:11 40%×200% My math expectation:80% What he says is reality:100%(somehow)

I feel like I have been waiting for this video since the One Million Damage video. Finally its here!

This editting is great! It gives me life

This video is really well made btw! Interesting topic, Amazing editing, and Incredible execution. Nice!

Feels like I was watching a scientific video

amazing video please make more like this

hearing the oneshot music after so long in the background was so surreal, great video!

Amazingly well done! 👍

when you showed the sojourn railgun headshot piercing through all those dvas i thought for sure that the ultimate method would have been to use her with a bunch of baptistes but then i remembered that you can only have 24 total, not 24 on each team so it wouldnt have worked sadge

damn the transitions are so clean good job bro

This is a crazy well made video and I genuinely loved the style of it, it reminded me a lot of this KZfaqr named AsumSaus 👍

Great video man! Excited for more videos to come.

Nice video carrier

Your editing skills are amazing! Good video btw. ❤

im so glad to see you get a video off the ground! i remember watching your 24 hour junkenstein stream and its great to see how much youve improved

I really love the little cut scenes! And as a Cassidy main it made it 100x’s more better for me, and all the goofy reactions are great, keep up the work‼️‼️‼️‼️🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏💗💗💗
