Hey guys, I made a sniper video for the Prestige team and I wanted to share it with you. Just a heads up, if you're not into longer intros and like videos that get straight to the frags then this might not be for you. I wanted to try and tell a story in this video instead of jumping straight into frags and smooths like most frag videos. This was more challenging to do than I had anticipated because there had to be a balance of animations and frags while at the same time I had to include smooths to set up certain frag scenes. The clips in this video are everywhere from matches to scrims and pugs. Some are a year old and some are recent. I know a video of this style might not be everyone's cup of tea but if it makes you feel any emotion at all I'll be satisfied. If the majority of the community enjoys it Konr and I will get to work on a longer project that includes better story telling and try to merge it flawlessly with the frag scenes and make it feel more like a movie than a frag video. Thanks.

Players featured: Konr, Helberg, Indx, Leaky, Rising, Sakiisa and Thazu

I loved the video and wanna thank you for the time you took to make it, but you don't need to explain yourself to anyone. You had an image for your video and after however many years it's been, you went through with it. Good on you and I'm already waiting for the next one.

ps thanks for the shoutout

your editing is so good, it's a shame it's wasted on sniper mains clicking heads in pugs

in all seriousness though that was a solid video and I'm glad to see you're back to making videos again

The storytelling was the the most cringe worthy shit I've seen in quite a while. The sfms were well made though.
Good frags and editing made up for it in the end.

Great frags and solid music - you can't not enjoy an ikpure video!

I appreciate all the work you've put in - and I'm happy to see you back, ik.

Thanks for all your help with my simple questions. :)

Good shit dude; you always put out quality content. I can't say I'm a fan of the story telling, but honestly thats my only issue with the video. The rest is awesome. Props for trying something different.

I looked into it, looks like viewmodels were broken when pure was making this.

looking at the credits in the end and seeing all those names like jukebox/flippy/fl1p/wltrs/kensi and so on and yet most of the frags are from tf2center/perma sniping on pugs is really dissapointing.
I really think clips of stomping on centers and a clip of 5k all headshots with 2 midair ones in between from a high official should not be in the same movie.
but still great editing and the second song was fantastic.

It was pretty much dependant on who actually gave frags in or had any to give. If the movie was made at a different time it would have likely been different but instead it was really dragged out over a long time due to the first editor backing out and ikay just taking the frags he could get basically to actually get the editing done.

I share the sentiment that it's a little sad that there are so many low level games being played in these clips mostly, but also think you can still appreciate good aim despite that.

We've decided there'll be a sequel to this but this time we're not sure which members will actually be a part of it yet, and we're going to only use match/official and pcw/scrim frags. It's easier to actually have that this time because we have a while to actually collect them. Before as I say it was kinda a scramble to get some shit together and not all of us had teams to get those frags from!

People need to understand the whole point of a frag video, especially an ikpure movie. It's the aesthetics, the music, the visuals, the frags. He didn't lie about where the footage came from, whether it be matches or pugs. And I'm sure half the people that posted "from pugs" can't hit a single head-shot to save their lives let alone a kill-streak. If you enjoyed the video, leave something positive behind, if not take your miserable life elsewhere.

it is still interesting to see how the players would handle higher level opponents, especially since most of them did actually play vs high level opponents, so that's why I think pug/center frags are not suppose to be impressive for them.
I wonder how many people will find it entertaining to send high/prem soldiers to destroy pugs/centers and upload their highlights.
but I am glad to hear there will be a sequel, and the frags will be from pcws/officials.
hopefully you'll get the best players from prestige to submit their frags.

It's a little bit different when it comes to something as precise as sniping since there's no room for shooting the ground or anything like that. You can see how well someone is aiming no matter what and can get some really sick shots in any case as long as the players dodge or rocketjump a bit and things like that. You don't really get the same sort of flashy looking plays when playing other classes vs lower level players.

I'm glad you're happy to hear about the sequel, I can't say who'll be in it yet but I promise it'll scratch all of those itches people like yourself found unscratched by this one. :)
