I didn't say it wasn't a team player just that it is a blunt instrument of the team.

Sparrisen said it. Reaver is very weak character and will get his ass whooped if the team doesnt support his attacks. If he gets support then he will be able to make huge difference in the fights due to his ability to move around the battle field fast (can go where ever he is needed), superrior interupt ability (one well timed lvl 12 push in the middle of a fight can change the whole situation e.g. you interupt shield from templar, witch laying NW on the OP and bull rushing seeker) and the best short period DPS in the game (other reaver interupts the templar and other one flurrys him = dead templar), but if he doesnt get support from the team he will be not able do any of this. So advice to templars keep me alive

Aah.. So nice to see dawnspire videos again! TY!
I think your prowler playing was amazing, you were always alive and running(standing) around the fight to get the best camera views for this video. It would have been boring just watch prowler running relics or using skills, they only disturb good entertainment.
As a teammate, I wouldnt be so pleased such a playing. Every character have 6 skills slots and this(these?) prowler(s) was using only 2-3(prowl, aimed shot) of its skills. That means you could be 50% more efficient if you use all the 6 skills. For example with same playing style and using lvl 12 shriek instead of aimed shot and lvl 8-12 entangle instead of reinvigorate, you can still do lots of damage with prowl but same time you could make templar totally useless for several seconds and snare enemy fighter so it cant catch your templar.
I have nothing against prowlers as long as he/she knows what he/she is doing and there isnt more than 1(2) prowlers in 8 players team.
As someone said before, its totally different to play with bots or with humans. So I recommend new players to listen tips from old ones, because usually they know what they are talking about, even it might sound wierd at first. I hope there will be many CvC's in the future so new players have chance learn to play better and old ones wont forget this great game. I hope I can come to play too sometime.
Btw, I hope you will add least end game score to the video.

Really? I thought I used all of my skills  And I also thought "Why 6, why no 7 skills  " Could you say with simple words, how does shriek work?

You target ground with shriek, and your bird flies there. Everyone around that area can't use mana based skills for a while, and they lose a bit of their mana. Templars can't heal, witches can't use most of their spells, reavers can't interupt etc. etc.

that's why i don't like you when you are prowler ^^ also entangle is an VERY useful skill, my favourite, but I'm going to think farther and see you prowling me all the time, and now using that entangle i told u about and u go on prowling. im not gonna tell you about entangle then. sac,SF,entangle,scout lvl 12, MS,bird lvl 1 for the ultimate support build imo

Sparrisen said it. Reaver is very weak character and will get his ass whooped if the team doesnt support his attacks. Depends on a reaver. A light reaver (sprint, meta, flurry, BB...) properly played doesn't need any support to be useful. The key there is to make surgigal strikes. Basically pick your target, go in and flurry and get the hell away from there. A tank reaver, on the other hand, needs support to be useful.

Yea you can be usefull, but if the team doesnt give any support you can much less than you could do with support. And there is no way that you are going to get away with your flurry if nobody is giving you any support (if the opponents have properly positioned themselfs).
