ty for all the feedback on the edit : ) for those interested the full vod is on my twitch: twitch.tv/rainbolt ! will continue to test and do a less hyper edited cut down for next week : )

I'd suggest keeping the actual games unedited but editing out most of the stuff in between because I remember in the last unedited vod there would be 5+ minutes of the players getting ready between rounds that most people don't really want to see. I also think having the games themselves be unedited is better in my opinion.

New Zealand is such a killer... Well played all the teams, this tourney was so competitive!

Anna’s performance was crazy! first time Stique couldn’t get the dub but gg to everyone! Love these tourneys Rainbolt! Keep em coming ❤️

Was an absolute pleasure to participate and cast in such a big tournament! Huge thanks for Rainbolt for giving GeoGuessr a platform, man is a legend and one of the nicest guys in the community ❤

Please keep making content on KZfaq, I don't have TikTok so I was first introduced to you in Ludwig's video. I love how you explain your picks, I honestly find it so educational/entertaining to watch you, I've learned a lot!

I super strongly recommend setting up virtual audio cables for the music if you decide to keep the edits. The cuts feel a little jarring mostly because the music gets cut up. With an audio cable, you could have the music play like normal on stream, but remove it easily in post. After you make the cuts you can add back whatever music you like, super easy once it's set up. Also, huge props for putting in the leg work to organize and cast these tournaments. It has only been a couple weeks and I already find myself looking forward to Saturday's to watch them.

I really like the editing here. Showing your guess, then showing where they went, then showing the results. Tiny bit of commentary when interesting, blast through it. Very watchable. Also like how the first rounds are quick, and then as the tournament goes on we see more of the gameplay itself, which is nice for the viewer to take in the location a bit, otherwise it's all pretty hectic lol. For your games, showing a lot of the gameplay would be good, and thought process for sure, and same for the finals, and anything that was interesting/not just a regular boring round. Showing the whole round every single time from the beginning would be boring and take way too long. Also basic timestamps are always awesome. Steal that shit from a commenter and then apply them to the video (would be pretty dope). That was an incredible tournament. Damn entertaining.

Love that on nearly every team I recognize at least 1 icon of someone who has brutally embarrassed me in a Duel, gg to all!! Excited to see more of these tourneys!

edit was much easier to get thru than previous videos. well done.

This tournament was sick. Dream with the prize pool hookup

So now this is definitely already my second most fav geoguessr channel after GeoWizard (where obviously it's mostly his great personality which makes the videos great). Once you get the gold standard for editing and commentary right, this is going to be huge!

Would have preferred the full VOD again. It’s great for learners and slowly working through! The edit was too fast to really enjoy imo. Great work on the tournament.

These out of the blue tournaments with donor money is a genius move. Keep em going! This might turn into something big. It might move geoguessr up as a game!

16:49 Tom Davies on his straight line mission! lmao so true. Get in!

I appreciate the edited version but would suggest having a link to the full vod in the description. Listening to all of the commentary and learning the details is good content too.

16:06 damn i live here omg didnt expect that

I like the longer videos too. Maybe upload both?

I never thought GeoGuessr tournaments were a thing! you guys are insane, this makes me want to learn more about the strategies. Amazing video!

Man, you gotta get Ludwig host one with you, I'm sure some money and publicity will come along :)

Great video with the editing! I do love the full length but this was easier to put on, so I enjoy both anyway. Better luck next time!

I love this. This is how eSports should start. Not developers trying to force it (like Overwatch), but players slowly building it up until it gets official. I hope it can grow bigger.

I never knew that geoguessr has hell of a community. Also it looked strange for me in the beginning but commentators made me super hyped

I feel like I just watched a 36 minute tiktok and my brain is way too overwhelmed

This is iconic, these guys are literally trailblazing a new lane for high level gameplay in the game they love and I absolutely love to see it!

Upload full length video please! Love listening to the commentary

28:15 this is insane, I just drove over this road a few days ago

would love to see more footage from the POVs of those playing in each round, loved seeing how you guys worked out where to guess as a team :D

As a person that just got into watching GeoGuesser it was really fun to watch the video! It is INSANE for me how quick you guys can recognize those different countries!

Regarding the Israel round at 2:24 - if you know it's Israel and see huge mountains to the east, it's definitely in the south. The Jordanian side of the border is mountains right after a huge valley so it's pretty safe.

if geoguessr keeps growing at the rate it is, there are definitely going to be big companies coming in and sponsering $10k plus tournaments. I could see travel related companies being interested in partnerships with top players and creators.

4:09 idk if this is weird, but I felt so good about myself when I knew the "Poland" guess to be wrong here. Poland NEVER has those kinds of cobbled roads in rural areas, in Poland that would've been a dirt road or just plain asphalt. I'm not a pro geoguesser player or trying to become one btw. I just live in Poland, lol

I wish it wasn’t so edited during the actual matches! Edit between matches, no problem that’s an improvement, but not during the match itself!

perfect editing tbh, commentator guess and pov, into player guesses and points, fast and snappy, super enjoyable

13:20 we got the polish L, polish lines, and of course you gotta love the polish poles from poland

I’m so happy that you’re channel is growing fast, already 1/4 of the 100k subscribers. And I really like the format of this video, because I don’t have the time to watch 4 hours long vod.

"It was just" Classic quote

This had to be one of the best tourney experiences, had a blast playing!!

i don't know if this is something you can control but i think the multipliers get out of control pretty fast to the point where the first 5 rounds are basically meaningless whereas past 10x it becomes a question of one good round with even a few hundred points able to oneshot. great for upsets and keeping games relatively short but i think consistent good play should be more of a focus than it is. maybe more health but starting from a r1 5x multiplier or something could balance it more

man who'd a thought geoguesser would be a thing. gotta thank tiktok for introducing me to the geoguesser community. i freaking love watching this dudes videos.

Great video, liked the fast pace style

As a casual player its so incredible to watch these! Found your channel recently and absolutely loving the content, keep up the great work!

The speed of some guessing its very impressive. Could see that on big stage tournaments like they have in other games

Thanks for the edit on this one, much easier to see all of the action without skipping through 4 hours of gameplay

What i‘ve been asking myself: are they always playing the same countries? For example, there has been like 30x Japan, Spain & Austria in the Last 3 vids but never Kroatia, Germany or China.. Taiwan for example is such a small country but they seem to get it every round at least once. Great video anyways :)

I very much prefer this format and having the full vod available on twitch.

This was the perfect edit and length, thanks Rainbolt

I still prefer the raw stream version instead of this edited version, way more intense

A reeeeal shame you didn't show the actual games, which is what I hoped for, and since not I did not continue watching. I am looking forward to actual recorded games thou!

that was the most fast paced 30 minute video I've ever watched, wow that was insane

that ProjectBloom guy sounds so cool and attractive and intelligent and hot and funny and hot

Love the edit but u should post the full thing as well because it’s fun to learn off of it

Love the edit on this ❤️

As someone who just occasionally watches but never plays maps, I liked the faster edits of the vid, made it more watchable for my non existent attention span.

Not gonna lie I thought he was playing for the first 5 minutes

I Like that this is a competition.

This is upsetting

18:33 bro I've gotten that exact same Bellville round before

Best Geoguessr video I’ve ever seen

I’m seeing some people say they like the unedited better, but i like the edit better. I think your matches could led have less editing though

LOL GeoWizard getting some heat! Nice vid, some sick guesses

i trusted stique with all my channel points damn

I am new to this, watched the last few tourney's and they got me hooked! Altho they were quite long, still enjoyed them. Being able to see the areas is what kept me glued. During this tourney, having the screen change b4 my eyes can even register anything ... hard to stay with it. IMO for future editing, atleast scroll area, show them on map then scores and move on? This way we can see what they are guessing on and still cuts out the rest? Have to say there are some amazing talents in this game. I think some might even have photographic memory? 😉

ACTUALLY MORE THAN COLLEGIATE OVERWATCH IN PRIZE POOOL

Not the other commentator having no clue what hedge actually means

13:21 Polish trees… 😂

18:33 was my hometown lmfao

Hard to get my head wrapped around this stuff. Even as a solid geoguesser player. I honestly don’t like the edits. I would just cut out the commentary and show the full rounds.

Cool to attend. Hope to see something alike in the future again

16:45 Tim Davies

watched it live super hype stuff

dream is such a great guy for that

i didnt expect dream to pop up

Unpopular Opinion: Editing may be fast paced but that just works for long videos. If you wanna watch the vods, go to twitch.

edit was great for this, enjoyed

thanks for the wonderful birthday present

i freaked out when i recognized one of these geoguessr locations irl

shorter vids like this are prob easier to hit the algo.. i like it!

HOLY SHIT WHAT A FUCKING UPSETT !!!!!

These people know google maps

Fantastic job on the tournament, really good to watch and I hope there will be even more in the future. And wow Anna was on fire this tournament

imagine a geoguessr game mode where all the basic hints eg poles and google cars and street lines being blacked out. And the only give aways is the terrain / environment ...

holy boy how did i miss these

Love your content bro, but the long videos are the best

The edited down version is more digestible. A 3-4 hour vod is tough

New to this community (found you through NL) and really enjoyed the editing for pure entertainment value

at this point its not geoguesser its geoanswer

ouch second tournament and everything is edited out already, please dont.

I'm in the "edit the VOD, but keep in the entire game"-team :)

Here after friend 1 and 2 wiped out the worlds best geoguessr players

cant believe i watched all of this

Wow, you were 34 kms from my house, a place I have passed 100 times, and I didn't recognize it.

I don’t understand why these matches aren’t best of 3

Gotta love this guy

single elim bo1? wtf?

tim davies😩

The biggest upset was watching a streamer lose a Geoguesser 1v1 with a 5700 point lead in 1 round

solid editing, made it wayyyy easier to click on and watch through

Dude, rainbolt, I just watched the VOD. Would be nice if you focused on the signs a bit more. Otherwise it was a good stream!
