This Is How You Use Clint More Effectively — Transcript

1. 0:00In this video, I used Clint and I'll
2. 0:02share some tips on when it's a good idea
3. 0:03to pick him.
4. 0:05In this game, I used the Assassin
5. 0:07Emblem, but later I'll also try the
6. 0:09Fighter Emblem.
7. 0:11Both have their own pros and cons and
8. 0:13it's important to understand which
9. 0:14Emblem you should choose depending on
10. 0:16each game. I was up against Lesley and
11. 0:18she deals true damage and is also a
12. 0:20burst type hero. After we killed Lesley,
13. 0:23our Rafaela made a really solid move.
14. 0:25She shared the gold from the turret
15. 0:27plate and then she even last hit the
16. 0:29gold crab that I worked hard to secure.
17. 0:31Sharing the gold plate is fine, but she
18. 0:33also took the gold crab. But anyways,
19. 0:36the reason I used the Assassin Emblem in
20. 0:38this game instead of the Fighter Emblem
21. 0:40is because the hybrid defense from the
22. 0:42Fighter Emblem is basically useless
23. 0:44against Lesley's true damage.
24. 0:46On top of that, the hybrid life steal is
25. 0:48hard to maximize when you're facing a
26. 0:50burst type hero.
27. 0:52Since Clint is also a burst type hero,
28. 0:54it usually comes down to who can burst
29. 0:56first, you or Lesley. That's why I chose
30. 0:59the Assassin Emblem. I might be wrong,
31. 1:01but I've noticed that penetration stats
32. 1:03are extremely effective on skill-based
33. 1:05heroes.
34. 1:06Heroes like Clint and Granger benefit a
35. 1:08lot more from physical penetration
36. 1:10because a huge portion of their damage
37. 1:12comes from skills.
38. 1:14The added damage feels much more
39. 1:15noticeable compared to heroes who rely
40. 1:17mostly on basic attacks like most
41. 1:19marksmen.
42. 1:21For basic attack reliant heroes,
43. 1:23physical penetration doesn't feel as
44. 1:24impactful compared to skill reliant
45. 1:26ones. So even though the Fighter Emblem
46. 1:28is good for Clint in terms of
47. 1:29sustainability, if you know that
48. 1:31sustainability will be hard to maximize
49. 1:33in a specific match-up, sometimes it's
50. 1:36better to go with the Assassin Emblem.
51. 1:38The damage difference can be
52. 1:39significant, especially since Clint is
53. 1:41also skill reliant. I don't really
54. 1:43recommend using Clint when you're up
55. 1:45against high mobility heroes.
56. 1:47Not only are his skills harder to hit,
57. 1:49but even his enhanced basic attacks can
58. 1:51miss when enemies move too fast.
59. 1:54That makes it difficult to fully
60. 1:55maximize his damage output.
61. 1:58His enhanced basic attack is somewhat
62. 2:00similar to Kimmy's in the sense that it
63. 2:01can be hard to land consistently on
64. 2:03fast-moving targets.
65. 2:05The difference is, it feels much worse
66. 2:07when Clint's enhanced basic attack
67. 2:09misses because it deals much higher
68. 2:11damage and you have to use a skill first
69. 2:13just to trigger it.
70. 2:15So, if your skill misses and your
71. 2:17enhanced basic attack also doesn't
72. 2:18connect, that's a huge damage loss. It's
73. 2:21even harder now after Moonton reduced
74. 2:23the range of his ultimate to match the
75. 2:25range of his enhanced basic attack. In
76. 2:27my opinion, they should have just
77. 2:28increased the range of the enhanced
78. 2:30basic attack instead.
79. 2:32His first skill is also difficult to
80. 2:34land against fast enemies and missing it
81. 2:36is a big loss since it's a huge part of
82. 2:37his damage. That's why I don't recommend
83. 2:39picking him against very mobile heroes,
84. 2:41especially most assassins.
85. 2:43He's much harder to use in those
86. 2:44match-ups unless you have teammates who
87. 2:46can lock down enemies and make it easier
88. 2:47for you to hit your skills and enhanced
89. 2:49basic attacks.
90. 2:51There are a lot of events in Mobile
91. 2:52Legends right now. [music] So, if you're
92. 2:53planning to top up diamonds, you might
93. 2:55want to consider using Wing Store.
94. 2:57In the Philippines, it starts at 13
95. 2:59pesos through Gcash. While in India, you
96. 3:01can buy diamonds via UPI. In Nepal, you
97. 3:03can buy them using Visa, Mastercard, or
98. 3:05PayPal through the global option. Wing
99. 3:07Store is available worldwide, so you can
100. 3:09use it wherever you are.
101. 3:10You can also get an extra discount by
102. 3:12using my code shown on the screen. Every
103. 3:14top-up also gives you cashback, which
104. 3:16you can later redeem for free diamonds.
105. 3:17You'll also earn spins for the Mobile
106. 3:19Legends Lucky Wheel for additional
107. 3:20rewards. If you're going to top up
108. 3:22anyway, you might as well get something
109. 3:23back.
110. 3:32That combo from Gloo was insanely solid.
111. 3:35It was my first time seeing that combo
112. 3:37and I almost died from laughing too
113. 3:39hard.
114. 3:42Only Lesley was left on the enemy team
115. 3:44here, so we decided to push mid.
116. 3:46We even managed to burst her down.
117. 3:49But, when the enemy minion waves came
118. 3:51out, I didn't force the end.
119. 3:53Instead of wasting time clearing waves
120. 3:55and hoping we could finish the game, I
121. 3:57rotated to push the top lane turret
122. 3:59instead.
123. 4:00The enemies were about to respawn, so it
124. 4:02would have been a wasted opportunity if
125. 4:03we stayed too long mid.
126. 4:06It was better to secure an objective
127. 4:07while we still had the advantage. It was
128. 4:09actually funny seeing Aurora build Sky
129. 4:11Piercer in this game.
130. 4:13She clearly wanted to secure as many
131. 4:14kills as possible when her main role is
132. 4:16to provide crowd control.
133. 4:19Honestly, it doesn't make sense when
134. 4:21support type mages build Sky Piercer
135. 4:23just to steal kills.
136. 4:25It would be more understandable on a
137. 4:26pure damage mage like Lunox, but Aurora?
138. 4:29No way. She can already be effective
139. 4:31without Sky Piercer.
140. 4:33Even though she stole a lot of kills in
141. 4:35this game, I still ended up with more
142. 4:37kills than her.
143. 4:38And I wasn't even using Sky Piercer.
144. 4:41Personally, I don't like building Sky
145. 4:42Piercer on Clint either.
146. 4:44It's too risky, especially since Clint
147. 4:46is already a very conditional hero. If
148. 4:48things don't go your way, the item loses
149. 4:50a lot of value. Yes, if you manage to
150. 4:53stack Sky Piercer, it's strong.
151. 4:56But what if you don't?
152. 4:57Is it really worth the risk?
153. 5:00I don't think so.
154. 5:01Even if you have stacks, they won't
155. 5:02matter if your damage isn't enough to
156. 5:04bring enemies down to low HP in the
157. 5:05first place.
158. 5:07The execute effect becomes useless if
159. 5:08you can't consistently chunk them.
160. 5:11What I'm trying to say is it's better
161. 5:12not to rely on Sky Piercer just to be
162. 5:14effective in the game. Even without it,
163. 5:17Clint already has very solid damage
164. 5:19output. You don't need to depend on an
165. 5:21execute item to make him strong. It's
166. 5:24better to use Clint as a poke and burst
167. 5:25hero, constantly pressuring enemies and
168. 5:28lowering their HP, rather than playing
169. 5:30him like someone who just waits to last
170. 5:32hit for kills.
171. 5:34By the way, I was using the fighter
172. 5:35emblem here, and this was the result.
173. 5:38My sustain was higher and I survived
174. 5:40that moment even though two enemies
175. 5:41focused me.
176. 5:43I outplayed them and got a double kill.
177. 5:45Then Thamuz arrived, and I was about to
178. 5:47my secret recall technique, but it
179. 5:49wasn't even necessary thanks to
180. 5:51Hayabusa. If you look at this game, the
181. 5:53enemy jungler has low mobility, which
182. 5:55makes him easier to hit with skills and
183. 5:57basic attacks.
184. 5:59That's one of the reasons why Clint is
185. 6:00effective in this match up.
186. 6:02As for their mage, it's not the type
187. 6:05that can poke from a long distance, or
188. 6:07someone who can instantly burst me down
189. 6:09with no counter play if I get caught.
190. 6:10Here, the enemy EXP laner rotated to the
191. 6:13gold lane, and they used all their
192. 6:15resources on me, but I just recalled
193. 6:17back to base. They got baited.
194. 6:41Thamuz is a relatively easier match up
195. 6:43for Clint because it's easier to land
196. 6:44Clint's skills on him,
197. 6:46but you still need to be careful.
198. 6:47If your second skill is on cool down,
199. 6:50Thamuz can definitely burn you down.
200. 6:55Tough boots is actually very important
201. 6:57right now, even for marksman, because it
202. 6:59reduces the duration of almost all crowd
203. 7:01control effects except suppression.
204. 7:04And currently, only three heroes have
205. 7:07suppression.
206. 7:08I'm not sure about the upcoming hero
207. 7:10Marcel,
208. 7:11whether his ultimate is suppression too
209. 7:13or a new type of CC.
210. 7:15You really don't want to stay crowd
211. 7:17controlled for too long. I honestly
212. 7:19could have died there if I wasn't using
213. 7:20tough boots.
214. 7:22Without it, I probably would have died
215. 7:23multiple times in those situations.
216. 7:33If Moonton would reduce the back swing
217. 7:35of Clint's skills and enhanced basic
218. 7:37attacks, make him as smooth as Granger,
219. 7:40he would easily become a top marksman.
220. 7:43That's honestly his biggest problem
221. 7:44right now and the reason why he's not
222. 7:46always ideal to pick.
223. 7:48His damage is already more than enough.
224. 7:51The issue isn't the damage, it's the
225. 7:53animation delay and how clunky he can
226. 7:55feel sometimes.
227. 7:56>> Kill.
228. 8:00>> Chou tried multiple times to set on me
229. 8:02here, but most of the time he failed
230. 8:04miserably.
231. 8:05Honestly, Chou is one of the hardest
232. 8:07heroes to use mechanically right now and
233. 8:09he's really out of the meta, especially
234. 8:12in solo ranked games.
235. 8:14In the pro scene or when used by a very
236. 8:17skilled player, he can still be strong
237. 8:19and keep up with meta heroes.
238. 8:21But the problem is he's extremely hard
239. 8:23to use properly.
240. 8:24He's not ideal for average players or
241. 8:26for solo queue because you're never sure
242. 8:28if your teammates will follow up on your
243. 8:30set.
244. 8:34It's similar to Fanny. She can feel weak
245. 8:36in solo queue, but in the pro scene or
246. 8:39in the hands of Fanny gods, she can look
247. 8:41like the strongest hero in the game.
248. 8:44When mastered, one of the hardest heroes
249. 8:46can also become one of the strongest.
250. 8:48But in the wrong hands, that same hero
251. 8:51can look completely useless. Oops. For
252. 8:54less experienced players, Hanabi is
253. 8:56definitely a much safer choice.
254. 9:01Hayabusa didn't want to take Lord here.
255. 9:03So instead of forcing it by myself, I
256. 9:05just followed them and helped end the
257. 9:06game.
258. 9:08It would have been risky to try and take
259. 9:09Lord alone.
260. 9:11If I stayed there and they got wiped
261. 9:13without me, we could have thrown the
262. 9:14game.
263. 9:15So it was safer to group with them and
264. 9:17just finish instead of forcing the
265. 9:18objective.
266. 9:20And this will be Chou's final flicker
267. 9:21combo attempt in this game.
