i expected higher multikills, but that doesn't really matter to me. it kept my interest for the whole time, so i'd say it's an enjoyable montage with a nice variation of maps, how he got the kill, etc. i liked some of the things that were done with the editing too.

i posted this already in the other Leaked thread, but here it is again.

i just saw it -- it was pretty decent, although i feel that it lacks in true originality. it was an enjoyable watch, but with some really obvious nods to editors for the big name montages lately.

namely he likes to pump up the in game audio at certain points in order to emphasize the 'killtacular/killfrenzy' without removing the audio from the the rest of the game. instead of a cool voice manipulated 'kill frenzy' you get the same thing but with garbled in game noise. nothing too big, but slightly annoying.

he slows down parts of it, and instead of a dramatic effect, i thought my video player was suffering from frame rate drop. that wasn't cool. zooming up ultra hardcore on a shot to the point where all i see are red pixels? not cool either.

almost every cool effect in this montage has been seen before; everything from the 'streaking of the screen' when he bxr's someone (this was in walshy's) to the death sihouettes when outbring someone. the HUD zoom up on the BR was an obvious take from Braddddd's montage. Used differently, and with some interesting filters (the bluish/shake the screen effect was cool). I don't want to say that he ripped off of Walshy's montage but I think that Halzred had way too many things similar for it to be really outstanding. Hell even the music selection is somewhat similar to Walshy's using a catchy hard banging rock track for the first half, and a more indie/hip sounding rock beat to finish out. He ended the first half of the montage well...which leads me to my last point.

THE END SUCKED. what the hell? it just ended with a kill frenzy, and centre court is sitting there waiting to be killed. i didn't expect the montage to end right there, it was really abrupt.

i only pointed out the flaws, because it would be dumb for me to go on and on about how great it was. overall if imitation is the most sincere flattery, than peridious should be feeling pretty damn good about himself. good in the fact that execution and editing is generally good and the work of an obviously talented player (pun definitely intended), and editor, but not deserving of a win or the hype that it's gotten for lack of originality.

note: i did edit this after watching it a second time and finding stuff i hadn't seen before.
