00:00I want to get tier 3 in competitive Minecraft PvP, but I need to fight good players to get better.
00:04So, I looked through my comments since a lot of you have asked to help train me,
00:07which is when I found this guy, a verified crystal PvP tier tester.
00:12And since he's a tier 3, which is exactly what I'm trying to practice for,
00:15this seemed like the perfect trainer and a great video idea.
00:19Hey, bro.
00:20Hello guys, we are here with a tier tester named Manila.
00:24Hey, how you doing?
00:25Pretty good.
00:25I basically just read your comment from YouTube, and I think you were like, yo, I can train you, I'm
00:30a tier tester, etc.
00:32Yep, and hopefully tier 3, at least by the end of summer.
00:36Yeah, the goal is to get tier 3 in crystals, so maybe with the help of Manila and just practicing
00:40a lot, we can do that.
00:42I don't really have a plan today, to be honest, but...
00:44I was just thinking at first, just do a couple of 1v1s, and then I have a couple of tips
00:483.
00:48I've watched a couple of your videos, and I have some of the things you should work on.
00:53Alright, ready? 3, 2, 1.
00:58We also haven't played yet today, so this is like a warm-up.
01:01Yeah.
01:04Oh!
01:06Like I said, it's a warm-up.
01:09See guys, no one's perfect.
01:11Even someone who's better than me right now.
01:13Uh-oh.
01:15Oh!
01:16I did the same thing.
01:21Oh, I see you're using little Blast Pro.
01:24Yeah, I did, uh, do a video on that recently, so I guess I have the same kit still.
01:30Yeah, I can tell.
01:34Ooh.
01:35A lot of pops.
01:37Nice toteming, though.
01:38What was that, then?
01:39Reload kit.
01:43Nice one.
01:44Yeah, that happens.
01:45Yeah, I'm trying to survive at this point, just trying to totem practice, I guess.
01:49Yeah, totem practice is good.
01:52Have you, um, have you used the O-Bolt's map?
01:56I have not, but I've been told about it by a few players.
01:59Is it good?
02:01Yeah, it's, it's really good for, especially totem practice against some of, like, the, some of the bots.
02:08Yeah.
02:08Especially when they're on high difficulty, it, like, really helps.
02:11Definitely try it out, too.
02:15Okay, re-kit.
02:16Oof, nice one.
02:17Yeah, I think, like, the main thing for me is just, like, the, you need to double-hand totems.
02:21Be fast with totems.
02:22Yeah, I think one of the main things I noticed is toteming is definitely a skill.
02:29Just important in general.
02:31Yeah, you need to work on, because I think if you don't have good toteming, it's kind of pointless of
02:36having, like, good mechanics.
02:38That's true.
02:42Bruh.
02:43Oops.
02:44Definitely getting warmed up before we even, like, actually learn anything here.
02:47Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah.
02:49We'll say, though, oh, wow.
02:51Crystal has gotten so much better, like, since three years ago.
02:56Yeah, skill level, I guess, but, honestly, I've not really been enjoying the meta that much.
03:01Oh.
03:02Oh.
03:02Uh-oh.
03:04Okay, good chain there.
03:06Oh, my God.
03:07Maybe we'll save for the corned up.
03:10I have a totem on my screen.
03:12What?
03:13I'm dead.
03:18I just passed my anchor speed there.
03:19That was really good.
03:21Okay, so that was a good warm-up, couple rounds, just so people know our skill levels right now.
03:26Uh, do you want me to, um, get into some of the things?
03:29Yeah.
03:30Some of the, some of the tips I have?
03:31Yeah, yeah.
03:32All right, so, um, first of all, what are your, um, anchor and crystal keybinds?
03:36So.
03:37All that stuff.
03:37Obsidian X, crystal is Q, and then.
03:40Okay, that's good.
03:41Anchor on F, and then tab is close, though.
03:44Tab is close, though.
03:44All right, so you're, okay, your keybinds are good, I'm just making sure.
03:48Let's do this.
03:49I'm gonna make a hole, and then you're gonna go right here, and basically show me how you, like, build
03:53out of the whole fight.
03:55Okay, I mean, I would, like, spam obsidians to block myself.
03:58Okay, good, because I saw you, um, in one of your videos, you were, like, building out with, like, glowstone,
04:03which.
04:03Oh, yeah.
04:04It's not very, not very effective.
04:06Um, I guess I could, we could start off with, like, flat, and just, like, basic flat.
04:10Okay.
04:10Um, so basically in flat, you want to strafe a lot, so just, like, strafing around, kind of jumping a
04:16lot of the time also works.
04:18Basically keeping your opponent guessing, like, where you are.
04:20So when you say strafe, do you mean, like, diag, forward, or doesn't that?
04:25Honestly, just every, uh, basically any way where your opponent might not look.
04:30Yeah, and I'm always strafing while crystalling, just to make sure it's, like, much harder for my opponent.
04:34Yeah.
04:34Oh, yeah, and also another thing is, um, like, fast pearls.
04:38Like, pearl on me and try to hit crystal.
04:42Okay, that wasn't bad.
04:44That's pretty good, but I think what you can improve on is kind of placing the obby a bit behind
04:49them or to the side.
04:51Yeah.
04:51So, like, the good strat for, um, hitting them very quickly, so, like, you have to react when your pearl
04:57lands.
04:58Or, not react, basically time your sword hits as your pearl lands.
05:02So it's basically instant.
05:04Okay.
05:04So basically just, like, you can be faster with it?
05:06Yeah, just not wait for your pearl to land, just anticipate when your pearl lands and then hit.
05:11You could try.
05:13Okay, that was better, that was better.
05:14That was good.
05:16Okay, that, that was nice.
05:18That was nice.
05:21I don't think I was doing a running hit there, sprint hit.
05:25Yeah, and also, it does, like, really help if you're, like, sprinting right before you pearl on them, because it
05:31makes you...
05:31Yeah, I have toggle sprints, so I'm always sprinting, but I guess when I land sometimes, I just forget to
05:36press W.
05:37There we go.
05:38Yeah, toggle sprint's good.
05:40Uh, we could do some...
05:42Just, like, a couple of flatfights.
05:43Okay.
05:44Yeah, that's fine.
05:45See if you can apply as...
05:46Alright.
05:58Okay, that was good.
05:59Nice.
06:10A little half-hard there.
06:13Oof.
06:14Nice.
06:14Oh, I just accidentally pushed an anchor.
06:16Nice.
06:25Like that jump prediction.
06:28Yeah.
06:29I can stop even being hit kills a lot of times.
06:36Uh-oh.
06:39See, I'm just kind of, like, jumping around, making it, like, really annoying for, like...
06:42Yeah.
06:43It's kind of hard to get a good close.
06:49Yeah, that was a good jump right there.
06:54Oof.
06:54Oh, we can do recuts.
06:56Yeah.
06:57That was a good thing.
07:07You're, um...
07:09You're curling out to the gap.
07:12Yeah.
07:13I do that every so often.
07:16Hmm.
07:22Oh, I just accidentally threw him.
07:24Yeah, you, like...
07:25That was good.
07:25That was good.
07:25Right when you chris, like, you popped, I guess, and then...
07:27That's why I double tapped.
07:29Yeah.
07:30That's good.
07:30That's good.
07:43That was good.
07:49Taught myself.
07:51Oh.
07:52Gap ping flake.
07:53Yeah, playing this makes me realize how much I missed the flat pvp too.
07:58Yeah, honestly a lot of people just play whole fights, so it's kind of hard to get a good flat
08:07fight.
08:07But you're honestly pretty good at flat.
08:10That's what I'm used to, thanks.
08:18Nice, nice.
08:21I almost got double tapped.
08:23Oh my god.
08:25It's easier to focus on double-handing totems when you're not anchoring.
08:30That's true, that's true.
08:36This is personal myself.
08:51I'm planning on doing a video like trying back OG crystal pvp.
08:56OG kit, diamond, flat fight, so this is kind of like that.
09:00With bots and everything.
09:01Yeah.
09:03Different meta for sure.
09:05Ha!
09:06Yeah, I definitely missed that kit.
09:11Re-kit, split second.
09:13That was close.
09:15That was close.
09:16Yeah, practicing like this on flat is definitely helpful for just getting crystal practice.
09:22And the muscle memory.
09:23Wow, this is making me realize how washed they end my flat.
09:27Me too.
09:30Yeah, I mean, honestly I'm really, I'm kind of impressed like, coming back after like, that long of a time,
09:39the crystal pvp and like still being somewhat decent.
09:44Yeah.
09:45Yeah.
09:46If anything, if I can't anchor, I can do this kind of.
09:49Yeah.
09:51Ooh, nice one.
09:59I almost actually anchored.
10:02Especially flat fights.
10:02Yeah.
10:03Yeah, I do that one.
10:09Especially flat fights, it's very difficult to kill people with double blast spot.
10:14So that's a good bonus.
10:15I forgot I had that on.
10:16Do you know like, if double blast spot is like, worse to use in flat or it doesn't matter?
10:21Well, if you want to win, double blast spot I think is definitely much better in flat.
10:26Because it's basically like very, very hard to double tap.
10:29Yeah.
10:30You can only do like one taps most of the time, but there is a strat for like doing the
10:35countering double blast spot in flat fights.
10:38Another good player, King Default calls it one taps.
10:41Yeah.
10:41You basically just crystal once.
10:44Oh, I've seen that.
10:45Yeah.
10:48Yeah.
10:49Yeah, and see how that's like more effective.
10:51Okay.
10:51And a lot-
10:52It confuses a lot of people.
10:54Yeah, one taps.
10:55Oh.
10:56Rose gapping.
10:57Basically just try like, try just doing like one hit crystal.
11:07Oh.
11:08Yeah, just like that.
11:09Okay.
11:09Yes, yes.
11:10As you can see it's very, very effective.
11:12Against double blast spot it's very nice.
11:15Yeah.
11:15Okay.
11:17Okay, what else do I have?
11:18We could-
11:19Yeah, we could probably do hole fights right now.
11:20Okay.
11:21There's certain times in hole fights where it's a lot more beneficial to anchor and a lot more beneficial to
11:25crystal.
11:26And there's specific situations when you want to do, kind of like combine those two.
11:31So basically when you're in an early hole fight like this, you see we both have fire tick.
11:36It's a lot harder to actually do like knockback, obviously.
11:39Yeah, obviously.
11:39So you want to like abuse fire tick as much as possible at the beginning of the fight.
11:43But try not to pop as much.
11:45And if they're also on fire, try anchoring.
11:48Anchoring should be your like early, early hole strat.
11:52Okay.
11:52You see where the sandstone?
11:54Yeah.
11:54And then when, once their fire tick is like over, crystalling is like a lot more effective.
11:59Yeah, cause it's just easier to get that knockback in.
12:01Yeah.
12:03And also anchor, you should anchor, there's two situations.
12:07When you want to get into a better position, or when you want to deal damage to your opponent.
12:12Like, let's say I'm just anchoring here, or here, stand over there.
12:16I'm not doing as much damage, but I'm getting in a better position.
12:19Yeah.
12:20Allowing me for like a follow up.
12:21Yeah, or you want to anchor the deal damage and try to like kill pressure them.
12:26Yeah, especially in this meta, kill pressure is very, very important in whole fights.
12:30You want to always keep your opponent off your feet.
12:33Remember that.
12:33Okay.
12:34If you always keep your opponent off their feet, they have to totem.
12:37And you basically win a lot of the time.
12:40Let's say I fail a hit crystal.
12:42Yep.
12:43After I fail a hit crystal, a lot of the times, what's good to do is to anchor them immediately.
12:48Not try to go for another hit crystal, unless they're still toteming.
12:52Basically just try to keep them off their feet, not give them any second to breathe.
12:56So just like, hit crystal, anchor.
12:58Right.
13:00You're pretty fast with it.
13:02So let's just do, yeah.
13:03Yeah, just like that.
13:05That's good.
13:05That's good.
13:06Let's just do like a couple of fights.
13:08Okay, bye.
13:10See how it goes.
13:13Okay, good, good.
13:18Uh oh.
13:20Oh.
13:23Whew.
13:24Close.
13:25Let's get out of there.
13:27And a lot of the times when I'm like trying to apply pressure, I'm not even...
13:30double-handing at like times when I know I don't really need to.
13:35Yeah.
13:36So like right there, I sacrificed my double hand.
13:40Yeah.
13:40To get into like a better position and get like three pops off.
13:44Oh, nice, nice.
13:46There you go.
13:46Oh.
13:48Oh my gosh.
13:49That was fast.
13:50Oh.
13:50And another good friend of yours is going to be the safe anchor in whole fights.
13:59Yeah, Bedork really changed your totem speed.
14:03Uh, didn't have a totem.
14:04For sure.
14:05Um, how do I say this?
14:06You have to kind of anticipate when they want to, they're going to pop you so you can
14:10totem a lot faster.
14:11So.
14:11Yeah.
14:12Uh, I'm just going to like screen share real quick.
14:14Right.
14:15So what I like to do a lot is, uh, when they're about to pop me like this, I kind
14:20of already
14:21predict the totem and like already go into my, so I can do like that.
14:24Yeah.
14:25Because I see a lot of the time you kind of like pause the totem.
14:29So like you pop, then you react and then you totem.
14:33Yeah.
14:33But you should, you should instead kind of like anticipate the pops.
14:36So I just have more time to react.
14:38Yeah.
14:39So you have like more time to react.
14:41So like if you're on a ledge like this, obviously they're probably going to pop you.
14:43So you should just go in your inventory.
14:45Yeah.
14:46And then block up.
14:47Yeah.
14:47Honestly, we can do some, a couple more, like maybe flat fights.
14:50Okay.
14:50Just short of flat fights and try to practice, uh, keeping your opponent off their feet and
14:56just like toteming a bit faster.
14:58Right.
15:12Anticipated that one right there.
15:15Nice.
15:15Nice.
15:30Nice.
15:30Nice.
15:31That was good.
15:31You got me off my feet.
15:33I had to totem a lot.
15:35Yeah.
15:35There I was trying to use my hop art totems before I opened my inventory.
15:38Because that's something a lot of people are saying as well.
15:41Use my hop art totems before I have to use my other ones.
15:44Because that's what they're for.
15:49Also, what do you blow up your anchors with, like when you like press down on the anchors?
15:54I do it with my totem now.
15:57Yeah, I've been totem.
15:58Let's go.
15:59Yeah.
16:00Cause that helps a lot.
16:01In both fights.
16:03Just in general.
16:04No, before I started PvPing again this week, like I was using my anchor to blow it up.
16:09The whole time.
16:09And I never noticed.
16:11Yeah, that was kind of painful to watch.
16:15It's okay guys.
16:16We're getting better.
16:18We'll save that and then we'll die.
16:20One step at a time.
16:23No, you're doing much better.
16:28Nice.
16:35Nice.
16:36We'll save anchor.
16:38Oh.
16:39Nice.
16:41Oh.
16:43Oh.
16:49That was good.
16:52That was good.
16:53That was good.
16:53There we go.
17:03Oh.
17:04Nice chain man.
17:05That was good.
17:05That was good.
17:06Yeah.
17:06Yeah.
17:07Oh.
17:09This is awesome.
17:10Like I feel like I'm slightly getting better than a week before.
17:15Oh, definitely.
17:27Oh.
17:28Yeah, my brain just lagged.
17:32I think at this rate you can definitely get a high tier 4 within like maybe next week.
17:37I bet.
17:38Or at least high tier 4 skill.
