Personally i watch his videos because of the fact that i have been wathing them for over 5 years or so. I don't think swifty being as good as many other warriors. I am not a fanboy. But i think he has a nice personality and i think he deserves all the fame and money he get's out of playing. Give the guy a break. if you don't like it don't watch it.

I watch him because he's entertaining.

Those "emberrassing/weird" screams are actually entertaining me same with some of the information he gives.

I do have to agree on the part where he doesn't put effort in his vids. Well not his vids, but some of the information he features on them (talents he hasn't heard of in MoP beta, even though they have been in the game since beginning of cata or even wotlk).

But yeah, don't get why people have to be so anti-Swifty sometimes, he's a good and entertaining guy..

Because it's funny to see he pays ppl to lose against him.

Why do guys still watch skill capped and Gigi a backpeddling horrible hunter? Oh, I forgot that she's a girl and guys simply work like that.


Sorry but when I saw Gigi's video I just laughed "no one here has pwnage like us" yeah indeed: "11 killing blows" well done... I did Wrecking Ball as Protadin with this poor char. This makes me any kind of super hero?

EDIT: grammar -_-

He is entertaining tbh, I actually laughed when he was talking about Mages having a glyph in MoP to cast silence while casting.

He just went: NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!

With my little finger tied behind my back.

A) OP is jealous he doesn't get paid for his addiction, rather he has to pay FOR it.
B) OP is mad because Swifty has more friends/subscribers
C) OP is mad because Swifty is better than him
D) OP is mad because he secretly finds Swifty entertaining and wants him all to himself
E) OP is mad because Tradechat is hot in a weird "I'd do you, but not talk about it to my friends" kinda way.
F) OP is mad because Swifty has friends that are willing too boost him to Arena Master
G) OP is mad because although Swifty isn't LOL3k rating and super boss, he's helped people improve as players more than OP will ever do.

The funny thing is, people who pay attention know that Swifty isn't Godmode, gimme 10 duels and I reckon I could beat him for ~4? Purely because I know he's better than me, but it'd be good fun, he plays for fun - I mean c'mon he rerolled fury just to crit 380k, what part of that implies he's thinking he's pro. He's a stepping stone to becoming pro and a damn funny one at that.

He's not a "stepping stone to becoming a pro", since most of the stuff that he tells people to do has the opposite effect of becoming good.

Take for example the "one shot macro", if you actually used that, you were far stupider than the people not using it.

I don't care if you think he sucks or not. His videos are still really fun


This ^^.

At least they are entertaining. Also the same reason I watch Bajheera`s and Klinda`s movies.

What I like the most about Swifty tho, is that he makes his own path, totally ignoring all the haters. Wich again makes the haters hate him even more. I hope he keeps giving out random warrior advices forever.

Didn't read y'alls posts but Swifty's vids are a hot mess. If you don't feel any sort of second-hand embarrassment during his little intros that show him playing football or some !@#$ like that, there's something seriously wrong with you.

But generally, pretty much all WoW vids are kinda tasteless. Pretty much all of them begin with people having their toons /-walking to bad dubstep or 2008 metal lmao. And people who %^-* puddles over people like Swifty need to reevaluate their life.

So being a girl automatically means you're bad?

When he got banned and made the video, with the 'feel sorry for me' music, I couldn't stop laughing. I was literally on the floor in tears laughing.
