  • what are the songs in this vid?

  • back then was the snared animation just your races slowwalk?? because he slowwalks when the mage snares him with a frostbolt

  • @4lifewarcraft They still do require skill cus atm wow is so unbalanced...

  • Love this videos.. back when warrior required skill

  • what patch is this?

  • Ah the good old videos , thats because i actually made my warrior back then ur the best Swifty !

  • i am very good vs frost mages...any mages except ice mages i can rape, np...even against frost mages, they need to use cold sap to beat a warrior...what u have to remember is anticipate what happens next...the only thing is hard to anticipate is if they will fake cast/spell lance ur spell reflect, its like rock paper scissors if u guess right you can win...using blade storm early is good too...if u manage to escape, you can mount up and waste a bit of time and wait for blade storm to come back

  • :O

  • what !?? no fire mage

  • @markust1000 fire mage wasn't viable

  • Now the game requires no skill what so ever

  • Swifty is the man!

  • they should make so that deepfreeze don't increase the dmg to icelance and atleast that problem is solved....

  • <3

  • Rofl I guarantee xdlyo that swifty would spank you.

  • talks like the hero like a god lol what a nerd

  • man that frostmage isnt that good... even I would play better. but the vid is pretty cool

  • but what if mage goes evocation with glyph?... he could poly u when u did regen and evoc himself :\

  • Yep they never do he still makes awesome videos , but the old ones ftw :)!

  • lol now in cata a duel with age takes about 5sec

  • 2 words for ya swifty: HOLY. SHIT. i have a tauren warior i suck with em, i now know switching stance helps alot and i need to improve alot. Your awesome !!!

  • @BackDownBaby no.. you dont stance dance anymore.. not as arms if you're thinking about it...

  • thumbs up if blizzard should make shattering throw instant!

  • @fettersackk ........ no

  • Ahh back when mages didn't 1 shot people in a deepfreeze :(

  • Y u no show fire mage? >:(

  • 10 hours for 4 months, man no wounder people can call this game deadly addictive.

  • Swifty was cooler as night elf

  • 2300 rating disarming a clothie.

  • @TheStewieGriffinFan Disarming removes his MH weapon, decreasing his stamina and intellect for the duration of the disarm. Its practically like another damage ability.

  • @HykuGaming I've looked it up, even tested it out. It does no damage whatsoever.

  • Guys! The music at the end is Immediate Music - Coronation. Thumbs UP!

  • kijda shitty mage

  • @ChronosNAME0600 Kinda shitty spelling

  • lol arcane mage is soooo easy to beat

  • great video swifty.

    fuck the haters. you know whats up. your an oldschool player thats been in it since the game came out. most of the people that play the game now are just wanker noobs that have only been playing for the past few years. old school wow players FTW

  • Stupid Video ,,,mage should stay mid range so he could not be charged/interceped

  • seriously you fail like 24/7

    your reflects are fkn bad, you start reflecting, instantly switch to berserker-stance, eating another bolt lol, you didn't even ONCE reflect a deepfreeze, which is fkn ridiculous if a mage is wating that long until he deepfreezestrinketing a 4sec deepfreeze at like 1 1/2 sec. ... letting the mage do a self-sheep in your reflect, and you're not "good" at pvp if you're doing good in bg's only lol.. perso-healers and dispellbots don't make you a good warrior ;)

  • @sKaXz dude this was over 3 years ago back when he was 80 hes gonna be bad, watch his newer vids, and people don't really watch him cause hes the best, they watch him because hes awesome

  • Back when frost mages were balanced and warriors could move in duels T_T

  • please helppp, im so confused as too how i always see people do this T_T, how is he always healing besides using enraged regeneration?

  • @stupidmonkeywing 2nd wind, heals 10% health over 10 seconds. Should totally activate when dk uses chains of ice, so much bull goes on in fighting Dk's vs Warr.

  • THE FROST MAGE DIDNT USE THE MANA GEM WTF :D

  • THESE videos are gold

  • Amazing strategies :)

  • HaHaRR, i will own :P

    Thanks to you! :)

  • well I can only say that the arcane mage didn't use evocation and he only ran and no arcane missles....

  • Bladestorm the pets people!

  • Check my channel 

  • I miss WOTLK! Back then it wasn't that good, but now Cata is shit, and you realize how good wotlk is when comparing to cata.

  • i just hate and never cna kill frost mage...stupid op blizz fav class in cata not in wotlk..in wotlk was easy

  • i just hate and never cna kill frost mage...stupid op blizz fav class

  • I miss WotLK !

  • Man, this is one of the first Swifty vids I watched 2 years ago. Sad seeing where the game is at now rofl.

  • '' thats all l did 4 months, 10 hours a day playing battlegrounds'' even he's a game guru lts so sad hearing this

  • I miss intercept soo much :(

  • Mage fights dont look anything like that anymore. Its more like need more pressure or your dead cause spell reflect is dumb now

  • even though this video is outdated, it is still sooo much fun to watch

  • Well my mage in this patch 4.2 . i fuck all classes . aint hard a frost mage !

  • algien tiene una cuenta en lvl 80 qe no le sirva plz

  • what? i cant remember mages having deep freeze , mirror in 2009.. :s

  • @thoosejakob149 both were introduced in WotLK which came out in November, 2008.

  • now intercept and charge share the cooldown...now the best tactic against a mage is not leting him see you. you engage a mage, you're dead

  • Also, epic video.. seriously epic :p

  • @yushuuu Bro mages have no advantage over a shaman cause i am on as an alt and they are OP.

  • whats the song at the end ?

  • unlike some of his newer vids, I like this one a lot.

  • That mage is terrible.

    Hes all "He has good arena rating" Boom. shows 50% win ratio and hes 2.1k....

    Really? hahah

    Seriously go duel any mage over 2.5k

    I can gurantee you would get flawlessed every single time

  • @Lovesickdope firstly rating was harder to come by back then, secondly, he's not doing this to help out guys above 2.2k.. he's doing it to help out people maybe starting out on a warrior. Thirdly, this was two years ago now, look at his recent videos, in which he duels 2.5k+ rated mages, and wins.

    Oh thats right, troll just got trolled. -.-

  • I'm losing it going through the hundreds of Immediate Music songs. What is the song at 5:50-7:30? It used to be in the tutorial vs. rogues video as well. Would appreciate it if anyone could tell me. Thx.

  • Oh boy, the old swifty videos. hehe, they never get old.

  • @MisterFallout Old videos never get old, haha.;p

  • and ppl say war sux wow swifty u r a fking monster

  • wth? why did he at 3:54 disarm the mage?

  • @brunschiboy So the mage can't meele, duh

  • Mage is shit, l2 evoc.

  • holy shit he is like a super god

  • I love your videos swifty... I hate when somebody think he can just beat frost mages when beat somebody who never "kite"... yes if the frost mage(s) don'T know about this they can lose if the warrior is good, but if the mage is pro and can keep the warrior in 4-7 yard range, the warrior is already dead. trinket>fear and ur slower then a mage so if I just use fire blast and cone of cold I going to win.

  • Well ist's not like that first what u can do it's charge or intercept but when you are in combat and slow him he will frost you even if you put piercing howl. Then he will blink if u get in range to him ill make video so you can guys see it it's not like this situation when swifty duel they don't go on range they stay close to u so u can' t charge or intercept if u bladestorm they will blink...

  • can some1 msg me some usefull pvp macros for warrior in scripts ;) would be rly gladfull, tnx :P

  • Swifty I watched your videos vs frost mages and others good duels, I learned so much from you now I duel vs frost mages, but mages come near me so i can' t charge I have full rage but i can' t come near them im snared all the time he can cast spells but I cant come near them...

  • @MultiDrhell piercing howl will force them to blink out, then you got the chance to charge

  • any TBC video

    

  • music at the begin ,,Immediate Music: Avenger``

  • Locks!

    

  • nothing elst but ice block? What about Frost Nova+blink+Some Damage dealing(Arcane blast)

  • No disrespect to the mage or anything, I think that if he really wanted to win he could.

    Just use the 3-7 yard weakness and a warrior is pretty helpless :p Altho it's lame but still xD

  • @Prinoto

    You know warriors can go out of range to charge themselves right? Piercing howl ftw

  • @Jam0nBread Let's start by saying this :D

    The video is from 2009, they couldn't do the "jumping-thingy" whatever it's called and piercing howl didn't help that much since the warrior is slowed as well (90% during the fight). So yea, the mage could've done the 3-7 yard weakness. /watch?v=48K_8EyyGwc&feature=r­elated

    However, now it's harder to do it but still possible. Even if they go out of range ONCE to charge :D

  • @Prinoto

    1.I wasn't commenting on the video I was replying to your comment which is 6 days ago.

    2. Even then PIERCING HOWL DID HELP that much..snares are useless if you're not going faster than the other person

    3. Now in cata he could heroic leap - > charge, double hammy, spam a rotation, knockdown, burst.

    4. The video you linked me is from 2009..

  • @Jam0nBread

    1.You were replying to my comment, and my comment was that if the mage would've done 3-7 yard weakness the warrior wouldn't stand a chance... and I said to this mage in THIS clip which was in 2009.

    2.YES EXACTLY! Snares are useless if you're not going faster than the other person, and since the warrior will be snared 90% of the fight, piercing howl IS useless.

    3. NOW they can yes.

    4.Yes, and so is THIS video which means that this mage could've done it aswell!

    Gosh xD

  • Tits gone wild!!!

  • an easy counter for the fist move is frost nova then dragon's breath before they start doin lots of damage

  • @TheShortKid23 hi..i'm a MeGa noob 4 mages..so i wanted 2 ask u..is dragon breath 4 fire talents only? if not pls tell me where 2 find them..cuz..i bought (learned) all of my skills and i cant find dragon breath in my fire skills..if ukno anythnin..help.........

  • @Ficko4 Dragons breath is unlocked in the fire talent tree after you get 25 points in it.

  • in 2v2 you will <3 Hands of Freedom when u fight Mage !

  • @shadow123474 I play a mage, and trust me, the Hand of Freedom never last longer than 1second on the guy, I just spellsteal it as soon as it's there

  • I like your vids swifty :)) BUT I LOVE THESE OLD ONES XD

  • this clip is such a good motivation for me to do bgs.when i get bored of bgs i come here wathch this clip and go back to the bgs! So thank you Swifty never stop making videos!

  • I wonder what his /played is

  • @IAMDISAPP0INT around 240 days

  • Ghostcrawler made sure warriors can't beat mages now with the intercept and charge shared cooldown, followed by this next patch nerfing warriors and greatly buffing frost mages. Seriously, did they fucking need to do that?

  • epic :D

  • Admire you warrior pvp style very impressive

  • Penis

  • ya if he could come out with a video now in cata with the charge and intercept cd that would be great

  • good vid, but your dmg in wotlk is very low

  • wow it looks hard even when intercept and charge didnt share a cd. now arms just gets smacked by mages

  • what song

  • /watch?v=4qq2OQNQnug if u like World of warcraft / Old bc frost mage

  • 116-114 ''good arena ratingz''????omfg......had like 57 loses all threw season 6 at 2400 and i considerened my self rather ''newbish''....

  • the ending is scary, yet epic :P

  • Good vid but, good mages? he ran into ur melee range to arcane explosion shadowmeld and hes right next to u? l2 blizzard o.0 what ever happened to good mages :(

  • @johnsju hi swifty! your videos are awesome! i'm hoping you can still beat frost mages. I get owned so bad by them in PVP. Wondering if there is any way to beat them. Hate them hate them hate them!!! Thanks.

  • In other Words Nelf or not you CANT beat a mage, same goes for Rogues - i paly rogue its a sad truth but Mele classes are just a big SNARED ROOTED punching bag for mages. You CANNOT beat a skilled frost mage as warrior / rogue in any spec. SKilled mage btw- not crubs

  • 4 Months playing 10 hours per day?! Fuck. Thats called COMBO NO LIFE!

  • bc mage watch?v=4qq2OQNQnug

  • Need help with how to move during bgs and duels - not just standing still. How do those rogues stunlock me and then run in a figure 8 around me?? can someone make a tutorial on how to move like that please (for a warrior)?

  • @helgard36 i usually use middle mouse button to move while fighting, so i have left hand totally free for using skills and still i can use my right hand thumb to use additional mouse buttons

  • intercept and charge (as I've heard and am to lazy to check) share the same cd, so this no longer works. As a warrior back in BC, I only lost to frost mages. This is an arcane mage and doesn't have nearly as much snare potential as a frost mage. Also he does measly damage for an arcane mage in the first place.

  • i agree practice is the best way to learn but not in BGs...best way is to duel other people and do 2v2

  • @shadow123474 well if you do 10 hours of Bg's a day for 4 months you'll end up in enough 1v1 and 2v2 situations hehe :P

  • @CascadeZ

    the big problem is : in my server horde are just stupid ! they are doing all wrong !!! BGs are like "EPIC FAIL!" there is no way to do good PvP (QQ) so for duels and 2v2s are only way but frost Mages are still owning me like no problem...i will h8 them forever

  • wow the frost mage didnt kite you at all with frost lance whats wrong with him thats a good 2-3k damage instantly and its low man and if your frozen it can hit up to 6k...

  • inspiring video swifty although a bit outdated your core strategies are still applicable. Thank you.

  • thumbs up for the song at the end pls!!

  • terribly outdated compared to lvl85

  • good mage dont even let you charge him = =

    he will just keep distance between you

    not too close and not too far...

  • what's the music in this video? (at the start)

  • The arcane mage has skill 0 LUL

  • A few questions: How are you getting healed? Which spec are you in? And it's fine to use a sheild and one gander in battle stance? Why did you never reflect his spells when you equipped your sheild?

  • @headchief4 Arms spec, Snares heal warriors the second wind talent and also engraged regeneration. He also put his spell reflect up alot but the mage timed his spells right.

  • This frost mage never uses ice lance when he could be; while waiting for freeze/ice bolt opportunities. In Cata, ice lance is more than a jab or potshots. They do really good damage esp when in DF.

  • @EeeScape

    because he was arcane dumb bitch how would icelance benefits him>?

  • @TheRet665 Because if you would remove your foot from your mouth you'd notice this video covers both arcane and frost. >.<

  • Oh man...even though you make me feel like crap for my fail warrior skill, you're still so much fun to watch.

  • backpeddel mage much :d

  • all you gotta do vs warrior as a mage is jump the charge/intercepts :))))!

    if you wanna beat a mage in cata as warr, you dont want to open with charge/intercept or HL, just start ontop of him and force a blink with burst dmg/bs

  • This pisses me off to see how much buttonmashing and technique warriors need to beat a frost mage, while theyre laughing it off

  • smart frost mage poly'd self to heal while he's in nova....: /

  • Haha if you guys like spell reflect kills, I got a pretty nice one in the middle of a short little vid I made called "Bajheera-Darkspear 12-1-41 AB 65-69 Warrior PvP (#7)" :D Hope you enjoy!

  • WTB achivement spell reflect killing blow

  • That was one pro-reflect-spell :o

  • inspiring pep talk..ill spend 4 months in bg's starting today

  • Making sapnish!!

  • how can i make a macro that changes my weapons from my 2h weapon to a 1h weapon and a shield and back?

  • try mages now -_- good luck xD everyone got the best gear now since u dont need arena rating and it is very very cheap

  • try beat now a mage frost with war fucking hard or impossibile ...

  • all u guys saying how a mage should fight a warr blablabla

    u guys realise all the best rogues and mages will sinply out play u right?

    how? simply play in melee range..guys u guys havent played vs 2.6k rated peeps up if u say such things

  • @moisestyle Im pretty sure you are at 1500 because of the say you spell.

  • ahhh maaan ... 4 months of wasted life eh ? :D

  • if u want High quality High Rated WoW pvp Videos (2700+ Eu cyclone) on 8x 80's Look no further,? Heres my channel! go check it out if u want ==) peace out brothers

  • i miss blizzard :/ P. Servers aint the same, well the good thing is that they aint full of fucking 12 years old kids

  • where are fire mages?? :L

  • LOL at this video...WARRIOR CAN"T BEAT MAGE>..

  • @jay1201x ofc they can. stance dance, time cooldowns, spell reflect. get a macro for def stance/spellreflect cast, use the macro late in the mages spell so that he wont cancel it with a weak ice lance or something. spellreflect a deep freeze for stun, frostbolt for the slow, pyro and AB for more dmg. but CC spells are the most clever to reflect

  • whats the song atb the end? really nice..

  • Fire mages too easy or something? :(

  • Mages are gonna become a bitch because after cata, the water elemental is going to be a regular pet for all specs so now you can get kited by all mages!

  • @ThePhysGun No its not, You will only gain the Water Elemental ability if you select Frost as your main specc

  • @GummiGudna Hmm, I just saw that, but I saw an arcane mage with a water elemental, or maybe it was a frost mage right next to him.

  • would like to see the duel without the Nelf racial spell :/

  • "Reapply rend!" , then he found Debuff filter :D

  • "Reapply rend!" /epic voice

  • pro tip for any mage watching. dont ice lance randomly if the warrior is in a nova. because warriors heal for a certain % of their health every time they get critted. if you ice lance they get healed for most of the damage done. makes it a waste

  • @faillidan lol not anymore, ice lance crits for 9k now mate

  • whats the name of this beat?

  • lolllll swifty , ive been followed your amazing videos and to be honest they are gr8, but killing elemental, common its just damage... not even a slow effect, so useless

  • @TheRoazer it has a frost nova that the mage can place where he wants,

  • @TheRoazer They do more damage than you think, and it really adds up since they just sit there casting away. + they get an extra frost nova from them.

  • pro stat

  • lol good luck with a Frost Mage!

  • with my all respect to both of u but i can easly kill u without getting my hp lower then 50% in my mage ^^

    and arcane kinda fail on dueling melee so cheers for that mage :)

  • @sheshkbab

    I seriously doubt that. Maybe you could beat him but lower than 50%? Now your just talking shit, Swifty clearly said that the frost mages beat him serveral times in dueling. And WTH do u expect from arcane its a pve spec.

  • a mage blinking after the first charge/intercept = fail.

  • @Aliceinchains1234 Not exactly, in the beginning, if a warrior charges and the mage blinks, then warrior intercepts, mage can trinket from the stun and start cc from there, a good way to make the warrior blow charge/intercept fast. But still the normal way is better imo.
