Vallu's YT channel

I have my own YT channel in which I have mostly commentary videos. I try to tell why I do what I do, or sometimes why I shouldn't have done what I did. These are great for learning situational awareness as that's best explained on a video, or for seen how some tank handles. Occasionally I do something particularly funny, like driving over an ELC .

If you have any feedback, please feel free to share. All feedback is good feedback as it helps me to know what is liked and what is not. You can also suggest some tank I should do commentary of. If I don't have it I will find someone who has .

Let's kick off with a video I promised long ago. It's The Flying Ferdiiiiii!

The opening pic gives you some idea of what's to come.

Niceee! I've been awaiting the tales of the flying Ferdi
Btw will there be the next part where Ferdi rents a house?

Is that some game glitch?... Or just very edited video?

Glitch. Apparently works only on Ferdi, Maus and T95.

I watched and have the following remark: the links to the specific sections should also be repeated in the description of the video, that way one can jump back and forth without having to seek for the overview where you explain everything more at the end. It'd also be possible to open every section in its own browser tab that way.

Also I'd love to see such a match with your actual in platoon communication, I tend to learn a lot about things that way as well, especially where everyone is supposed to be and where they got caught by surprise and such. I understand if that'd not be possible though.

All in all it was fun to watch and I learned a bit more about scouting.

Maybe you want a flying Maus?... as far as I know, I'm the only moron that likes to drive a Maus in this academy.

@Harald Will add links in description in future videos. I been thinking of making a video with TS chatter, but I would have to record that live and it's in no way guaranteed we will get a match worth showing. Also my FPS drops while recording And depending who I'm with there is not that much "useful" chat. If I platoon with Wasp, we pretty much know what we are going to do without saying anything really. Only game related we said in that replay was me yelling "Help meeeeeeeee"
But I will make vid with TS chatter one way or another!

@Kawa It's glitch and a very funny one! I did this for fun in Test server and got called cheater and hacker Wasp also has Maus now, but I'm not gonna make another video like this, too many replays to capture and cut.

@Vampir Probably not.

I'm talking bit more about tactics in this one and there is a crucial move that me and Tyutyu make which just might have won the game for us. I've also added recap links in description now .

loved this one and an awesome example of hull down for lay people like me

I also like very much that you pause before each critical section, this allows me to decide what I'd do and compare it to your action.

I have 2 questions though: why did you stay on that hill so long, wheren't you concerned with the remaining Hummel? Also in your chinese videos your tank has 100% crew + skills, that tree is like a month old, pray tell how do you do that? I haven't even managed to 100% 1 skill.

Artillery only shot once there, so I figured he was shooting 1/2 line. If arty shoots anywhere near me I will notice it, I got bad experiences with arty

I have 3 skills on my WZ-131/132 crew because that's my old Type 59 crew

I realised I don't have any TD replays, so here's one. It's bit ironic that I'm driving a TD and Sid is driving the heavy

Passive scouting this time. More talking than action here really. I really just wanted to give an example how much you can do by patiently ummm ...doing nothing.

Good one. Have you ever tried to spot the enemy team by going to the bushes in the middle from that side?

No, and I doubt it would work, from the other side it's doable if you spawn on the right spot and there's no suicide scouters from the other side.

Uh.. about time I post something. For the money grinders this time, it's the Slöwe ...errr Löwe.

I will try to keep posting at least 1 video per week, hopefully more. Here's yet again Malinovka with WZ-132, showing how scouting works out from the other side. Also there's a neat little trick that you know about if you listened carefully in the Essentials class. Using the 15m rule to spot and shoot enemies without them spotting you even if you're only about 150m away. Hope you enjoy me shooting that poor SP who has no idea what's happening .

C'mon guys, gimme some feedback! And thanks to everyone who subscribed.

No replay commentary this time, but a collection of small clips. More to come.

Lol your accent makes me giggle for some reason D:

Btw just a suggestion Vallu... any chance to cut the videos slightly shorter? I mean, it's good as it is, but I have some difficulty finding 15-18 minutes in a row with a stable internet connection/life issues. Hence I always end up watch a quarter of your video before getting disconnected/called to do something and have to start all over again, hence missing lots of funny and crucial details of your video.

It's just a suggestion The content of your videos are great though!

You're not the only one.

As for cutting down the length... Do I have to die sooner? :O I always want to show the whole battle, so everyone can see the tactics involved. How short do you mean? I have couple of bit different videos coming that are about 7-12mins long. I could also do what Highflyer does and post some "quickys" instead of a montage of many small ones.

Nah there's no need to make quickies....they would just destroy the tactical value of your videos

I think cutting it down even by 2-3 minutes would help. Because due to my bad internet I tend to skip to about half way through your videos lest I lose buffering or YouTube crashes, which seems to be a good policy as I see much action there. Basically, if you cut it down even a little bit, I can watch it a lot smoother, but of course, there's no need to cater your videos because my crappy computer/internet cant handle it!

If you were to cut it a bit perhaps consider cutting the very beginning out, the 30 second timer really isn't necessary I think? :/

I won't shorten the videos, instead I will put a annotation with a link to the part where action starts for those who are impatient or with crappy computer/internet. First minute or so is always introduction to the video and me explaining where I go and why. Then the action starts. There's also recap points in the videos to quickly see something important, also found in the Recap part. Last is Battle Results for those interested in them.

While waiting F1 practice to start I decided to upload a new replay commentary. You'll like this Ding, It's less than 10 minutes (9 minutes 50 seconds ) and it has "Straight to the action" button.

Subscribed, watched and liked the vids. Agreed with Ding: they are very long, but with the new to the action better to watch at my work .

Haha, funny thing is, that i just relised, while watching your video, that you have simillar accent as Raikkonen ;D And you're F1 fun, I can see.
I bet you're cheering Kimi, don't you? Same here.
Maybe it's a finnish language issue, in whole? ;D
