Quoted from Casino
Had mentoring session with him and he’s a really swell guy. 8/8 would be gr8 m8
Quoted from Chopp
This guy knows his facts for real. And in addition he is super friendly as everyone knows.
Spent the whole afternoon with Mirelin and these people. He makes you actually think and helps you develop your own analyses instead of just putting all stuff out and leaving it at that. Great teacher =)
He can also switch from scottish to jamaican accent in 0.5sec.
Just had a mentor session with him couple of mins ago. Truly a nice guy with really positive attitude towards helping. His mentor style is similar to school where the teacher is asking you a question and helps you understand the problem itself while helping you at the same time. Even when he might point out some really complicated things that you don’t really get he explains it really well until it goes into your brain. Does everything really patiently and observes everything with passion in your game.
Really recommend you guys add him. you might not get a chance like this in life later and it really will help you
All right.
I’ve still got drezzo to go through the demos, but in overall, considering all mentor sessions I had, I know the direction in which I need to move.
By the overall conclusions; most medics completely repeat the same mistake over and over again. I think I might do a video on that.
————- My overall conclusions will start here
The thing which I am going to mention might be useful for every medic. Amateur or a skilled one. In other words; doesn’t matter in which division you play or to which skill level you think you are belonging to. This info might be very useful to you and might even help to get to a different skill level.
For some reason I had an impression that most medics are playing like in the World of Tanks. They were unaware of what’s going on around them.
That means that you have to be very careful and vigilant of what’s going on around you. Observing critical points while you are positioning or stepping inside somewhere is absolutely crucial. You have to always see all the aggression that is or might go in to your face.
Another thing which I have noticed is the position of the camera or crosshair. Most medics like to heal and observe their healed teammates while being completely unaware of what’s going on above them (most of the times in the sky, cuz that’s the place where the soldiers usually jump from, lol)
Thanks to Gaben, we don’t have to stare at our patients while we are healing them. We shouldn’t be lazy at doing flick moves with our mouses.
As a result, the things we should do – (Mouse flick)Targeting our patient that we want to heal -> (mouse flick) moving our camera back in to the directions from which the enemies can come from -> the end. No staring is necessary.
So far the following medics had an outstanding perfomance at their skill level, but had pretty silly similar mistakes “Camera positioning, self-unawareness.”:
Turbo, Jaakarhu.
All of them are welcome to meet me in a week or two for witnessing the result of our mentor sessions.
My other fellow students:
Euthanasia, ChopChop
Pretty good players too, I was generally impressed. Some flaws in the gameplay were noticeable, but I didn’t see anything big that might prevent you from improving further.
You are always welcome to ask me any question you wish. I will try to help you as much as you can.
My most hard-working students that I had a lot of fun with:
Mikau, R.E.M.
There are a lot of things you need to learn, I will do my best to help you bearing your skill barrier in order to improve further :)
Drezzo, still waiting for you to poke my ass. Gonna message you when you will come online :D:.

I’d like to have some mentoring as well!
Dutchman finally gonna get good! :DD . Love you bby <3
Are you doing mentoring stuff for nazi roamers too? :o
It would be honor beeing mentored by best med ever lived
All right.
Since steam is still broken, I can’t add anybody in to my friend list. I have tried to clear it up, still no effect.
Flying Dutchman – I accepted you and we can do the mentorship today in the afternoon.
AmirBonk – the same about you.
Alphaa – as long as you are okay with me calling you ”Mein Fuhrer”, I can try helping you. I played with the best roamer EU, but I am not good at roaming though.
deguCZ – That would be beautiful if you could add me in steam. Unfortunately, steam just doesn’t let me to :/ .
———————–
For the future references, all people who are adding me up for any kind of help; in order to get accepted, you still have to leave a message in this thread. If I am not going to recognize you (from this thread), then your invitation will be simply ignored.
If you found out about me from our mutual friends, I have to be informed about you from them.
The reason why I am doing that is to avoid accepting trolls in to my broken and very limited friend list. Some Russians felt very comfortable with adding me up and asking for making them play better. It is very hard for me to make somebody ‘play better’. You have to know your problems so I can help you out.

Another big thanks goes to -KaleidoChameleon for donating 10 EUR. I can’t really remember signing a weapon for you, I apologize. Kappa
”Thanks again for signing my weapon!” – was that sarcastic or I really signed your weapon? If not, then we can fix that up :D .
