I agree with everything, but I think we can add more here.
Sticks.. I think you forgot to mention the f2 to p2 stick. It's been done a billion times.
Quality (or lack of!) of players can help make a better montage. Some people are very serious about only having known players, others don't care at all. Please don't put in absolutely terrible pro kills or kills on absolutely terrible players though.
Variety.. this is more opinion than anything, but then again so is everything else. Some montage viewers, myself included have found montages to be dull and repetitive at this point because h2 is a pretty old game. There seems to be only a few molds for montages...
This is basically my opinion... it's also very negative (sorry, but we need to change... I plan on adding a lot of non MLG levels with some strange but difficult kills but mostly the usual stuff)
middy FFA + lockout and middy TS (boring as hell unless your clips are unreal. Satisfying to watch if against good players, but still not entertaning because it's been done 1000x times. This is what Luck did and few have been able to copy well. If his montage was released today though it wouldn't be nearly as impressive)
middy FFA + lockout snipes + small amount of team (ditto, but at least I can expect a few frenzies)
1v1 only (boring unless the clips are unreal. I don't have a 1v1 montage I would remotely place in my top 10 because they are all so repetitive)
80%+ middy FFA, random other stuff (a recently announced montage at H2F was like this. It was possibly the most boring and predictable montage I have ever seen. Walshy's montage was here, but he all pros and impressive (but not necessarily good) editing)
