  • Protip: Scoring with any amount of points gives you 10% Unite move charge.
  • @ikazuma1435
    0:20 1. Not knowing what last hitting is 2:38 2. Not participating in team fights 5:13 3. Handling Zapdos incorrectly 7:18 4. Overextending when the first goal is knocked out 10:03 5. Not knowing your role 16:17 6. Not knowing what your moves do 16:54 7. Scoring at the wrong time
  • @guitarlicker_
    I want the entire Unite community to find this video. I keep falling out of Veteran cause teamates are so obsessed with Zapdos when we're winning 😭
  • Pro tip: have a main, but also know how to use one of each type well so you can fill in any teams weakness:)
  • @franciscodelico
    18:18 I do believe the Eldegoss dunked their points precisely because they already won the team fight, and so, the Rotom would have more than likely gotten to the goal before any of the high-scoring players could dunk themselves. A quick dunk to get rid of the goal, so Rotom could advance, was probably a quick-thinking decision to not risk the Rotom and keep the ball rolling. Whether it was worth it or not, I can't judge, but they did proceed to destroy your other goal regardless
  • @terranleadr
    The whole "Zapdos fight" is spot on. Idk how many games I've lost cause my team is trying to get Zapdos despite that we are winning!
  • @leinadlink
    In terms of scoring there's also a thing you should've mentioned because this is very important specially for supporters. If you have under 10 points to score, you dunk them almost instantly, and scoring makes you invulnerable AND heals you. So if you see yourself pushing or diving under a goal and you dunking that amount won't delete it, it is worth to blow your cds, dunk to dodge theirs and get some health back. Plus if you are equipped with scoring items you get that benefit too. This is only useful for characters that won't be last hitting like defenders and supporters, but it is something to keep in mind. Edit: I also forgot to mention scoring also reduces your unite move cd, so the more you are scoring the faater you get to use it. Playing aggressive in this game lets you snowball super fast, but always try to score the max amount in the goals you can!
  • You can't really blame Manscaped for backing out, though. Probably didn't figure most players have any hair on their balls yet.
  • @TheTheEverling
    My only addition to the scoring 1 point tip: It's highly beneficial if you are using the held items that provide stat boosts each time you score. Whether it's 1 point or 50, you get the same boost each time. Score as many 1 pointers as possible quickly and you eventually start sweeping the enemy team very quickly.
  • @LARPBill
    I like how you stopped the slow motion replay of last hitting right before you take a minion from the charizard.
  • I would add a personal pet peeve of mine - Not recalling after scoring with a Zapdos advantage to defend the base until the timer runs out. Lost 2-3 games in Expert because of this. Whats the point of fighting on a enemy goal when 2-3 opponents are left wandering around with the potential to score 200 points and fuck you over anyway.
  • @yovani5594
    I’m a Garchamp main and my teammates always be stealing my last hits when I’m a just a gible lol
  • @Olixer109
    I guess this is aimed at noobs to MOBA's. Here's another big mistake people make: 3:30 trying to score when enemy team is about to or has just spawned, they will 100% interrupt you and you'll be at a disadvantage in that fight. And my greatest bother in any moba is people tunneling on their opponents, forgetting to farm and getting behind for no reason.
  • @JoelRiter
    As an Absol main, I kept trying to pick characters in solo to help with synergy (that's how Eldegoss became my second). Then, I realized that just because jungle has been taken and called, I can still play as bottom Absol. Many Pokemon can have a couple different functions of you build and plan right. I can now play Absol as a jungler, attacker, scorer, etc. So as long as your teams synergy isn't complete terrible (at least one defender/support and a jungler) just pick your main. Points don't matter till Zapdos. Remember my score Absol? It was sick. Too bad I never realized that the goals really aren't worth that much experience and I would have been better in center or bottom. Now I have much more consistent wins, all because I stopped worrying about the score until Zapdos. If you are going center, don't touch the first Aipoms. If your top or bottom don't touch the jungle pokemon. ANY OF THEM NOT A SINGLE POINT OF DAMAGE. Drednaw is the first win condition. You get first Drednaw and you get a huge advantage. Know your match ups. As an absol main, I know my match ups really well. When an opponent is out of lane, pushing too hard, if there's a Zeraora, I know to stay away because Absol can't outpace Zeraora in a lot of ways. I know I can literally dance around Snorlax and get KOs if I keep up my attack and watch for Snorlax attacks. This is just an example, but know your match ups. Know them with your play style, etc.
  • @JoeleyMoley98
    Quick tip from a production perspective - record the voice over, then record the background footage. You've saved a load of time just getting loops of footage from the game, but the audio looping is quite annoying. It doesn't ruin the video, but if you record the voice over first, you'll know how much background footage you need and can record it without 3 second loops. Another option is to just record maybe 20 minutes of each screen, then you can just use that as archive footage for any video you make in future. Little extra effort but saves time in the long run.
  • Last point helped me out. I'd been thinking the excess points were wasted if a goal only needed say 5 points left and I used 30+. And shame on Jack Daniel's for not wanting to sponsor a Pokemon Unite video. Pokemaniacs like to party sometimes too.
  • Super comprehensive, ngl I never really look at the points available in the goal when I score. From now I will be more mindful, but I play Garchomp so some games I will need to rush level 10 with suboptimal scoring patterns, sorry in advance teammates.
  • @joshakazam04
    early scores with small numbers are really important if you run the atk, spatk, and hp score scaling items.
  • @DOMmaster44
    So glade I found this video. Thank you. I've never played a MOBA and was having trouble understanding the more specific things I needed to be doing. A lot of other videos were either about one specific character or pretty much everything the tutorial went over. I glad this went over more about just how to play the game like a MOBA.
