I don't always nominate combo videos

but when I do, I nominate TAI.

Now that that's out of the way, may as well nominate Shadow Claw 4 too.

Did you vote for someting before?

I don't want to be counting your vote twice so you have to tell me the difference haha.

btw to everyone, if you voted before and want to use up the rest of your nomination votes. don't tell me your previous votes, otherwise Imma get confused :confused: and be clear that you are nominating someone otherwise I might think you're just commenting on it.

Shadowclaw 4 has excellent combos but terrible editing. Sorry V3ctorMan but i don't want to see five combos played at once nor do I want to see those clips in black and white, nor do I want to listen to serious music in the background. You went the wrong way with the editing. Combo videos are supposed to be fun to watch with techno music (preferably) in the background and special effects just to make it look more crazy and fun, not more serious. Additionally why did you do that dumb journal effect theme? No matter what video you put it in it will look ********. Play one video at a time, only use SFX to add to the hype, have techno music in the background, don't use black and white (although making a clip rainbow may look awesome =D), and take out the dumb parts (I.E. Shadowclaw 4 loading screen), if you do this Shadowclaw 5 may be better than **** x 2.

TLDR:Read sentence above for tips, V3ctorMan

ALSO I NOMINATE **** X 2

holy crap lol well i pretty much agree. About the techno anyone could use what they want to use thats what makes it unique and theirs but about 5 clips playing at once and garbage like that it kills it

the music you dont wanna listen to is just personal preference and doesnt make the combo vid any worse... not everyone likes techno and it doesnt make a combo vid any better by any means

I strongly feel like TAI's vid is gonna ride the wave of "newness" to success, although overal being not-as-good as some other vids imo. Same for WTF HAX when it come sout, but WTF HAX will be mindblowing so idgaf.

that said, my second nomination goes to On-terrbile: An ontario canada combo vid

Now I understand that everyone has different views on the subject of over-editting (in SC4), but I think it was amazing. It added something new to combo videos. Made it more intense and also more fun to watch honestly. That type of editing is never seen and is much more appreciated.

Shadow Claw IV's STUPIDLY LONG introduction makes me not want to vote for it. TAI's is good.

Anyway, my votes:

1) Silent Wolf - All Systems Go

2) ???

3) ???

I'll figure out my other nominations later.

I liked ShadowClawIV because it was different, it kept me interested, and I felt like I wasn't watching the same video over and over again. To be successful you have to take risks, and Vman and Taj did just that. Instead of sticking with the same common formula, they were bold and dared to try something new. A loading screen to build anticipation, showing 5 clips at once to let you know that you're about to watch something extraordinary, etc.

Funny thing is, he did something similar (with the clips) with the Axe Effect and was praised for it, yet hated for it with SC4. Why is that?
