Top 3 Tricks You MUST KNOW on Genji to GET INSANE DRAGONBLADES OFF - Overwatch Pro Guide

[Music] how many times has this happened to you forget e that Q button can sometimes feel like a respawn button that being sent time and time again we see nutty six meant blades dominate the highlight reels and carry team fights solo blading is a fundamental Genji's skill that any inspiring Grandmaster Kenji player must learn game leap has you covered with the only Genji dragon blade guide you'll ever need to start popping off in each and every game you play Genji in let's just jump right into a shall we Ganges dragon blade is one of the key reasons to play Genji in the first place every character has their power level balanced at different points throughout their kit however with Genji his power level is heavily emphasized to his ultimate essentially dragon blade is one of the key ways the gauge is forced to impact and actually win teamfights all together needless to say Ganges you can't get any value do their dragon blades should honestly probably not be playing the character that's why we're gonna fundamentally breakdown the damage numbers fundamental play styles and everything else that you need to know in order to have huge dragon blades in each and every one of your games let's first breakdown some of the damage numbers when it comes to Genji's dragon blade Ganges dragon blade does 120 damage per swing you get a maximum of seven swings and you get a thirty percent movement buff this makes it a lot easier for you to chase down enemies who are running away from you when dragon blade on top of this Genji gets an extra dash when activating dragon blade so he can do things like dashing up in the air activating dragon blade and then dashing down onto the enemy lastly Genji will get a full amount of shuriken after his dragon blades ended so you don't have to worry about reloading after your dragon blade is over essentially dragon blade makes Genji do extremely high burst damage makes them even more mobile than he already is and plays into his existing kit get she has all the means to protect himself with reflect close the gap on enemies with dash and wall run and sneak in and out of combat doing giant amounts of burst damage that are hard for the enemy to heal through now becoming a Grand Master gun G player isn't easy plug amacom has everything you need to become that self actualized kenji got as quickly as possible our kenji section in particular has the most stacked amount of content in the entire site so for those of you who are serious about mastering the cybernetic schemata do yourself a favor and come check us out and I hope to see there now let's jump right into our first core topic when two dragon blade now there's a couple important things that you need to think about at Vantage versus disadvantage far too many times Genji pull out a blade in a fight that is ultimately lost in order to get a lot of value with dragon blade in most teamfights you want your team to be actively pushing it and creating pressure as well against you that goes in first with blade and is looked at by every single member of the enemy team can be easily shot focused out or cc having that additional pressure is the best way and that's why a lot of times go in with blade as your team engages as well now there'll be time so this is not possible and you need to evaluate your advantage versus your disadvantage how many members of the enemy team are low and who on the enemy team is worth blading do they have their cooldowns and is there any CC that could shut you down how many slices is it gonna take for you to kill anybody and is it reasonable for you to try for a blade these are all factors that you need to consider when trying to maximize each and every blade holding your blade for a better opportunity is almost always better than trying to force a blade into a disadvantaged situation being patient with the blade and using blade to secure you teamfights is the best way to use dragon blade but far too many times Kenji's waste dragon blade in a lost fight already now the last aspect of window' blade is game since is the fight winnable we've all seen those play the game clips where the fight was seemingly lost but a Genji dragon blade hero comes in and gets a 5k clutching the point how realistic is it for you to actually pull that off do you have any a mutation like nano or mercy boost in order to actually help you utilize this trying to crush a point with dragon blade only to die and feed ultimately makes it so you have to build it up again in order to give value you really need to try to get a feel for the different situations where a dragon blade can get value out of and make a plan in your head before you press that q button there are multiple things that go into whether or not your blade is successful including how mechanically composit the enemy is how aware they are and how mechanically compensate you are at performing your dragon blade however far and away the most important aspect is when pressing that q button to start your dragon blade you need to ask yourself is this a legitimate reason for me to start my dragon blade and what am I actually trying to accomplish don't just drag a blade with the objective to just go on to the enemy team and start doing damage find an actual goal and find an actual plan and try to execute that plan with dragon blade this leads directly into our next core topic who'da blade you need to have a target priority list when activating blade if the enemy McCree use flashbang you want to shut him down before he gets an the one off cooldown if the Enderman widow has line of sight on you you don't want to blade directly in front of her so she could easily shoot you this means these characters become target priorities also you need to be scouting a new target before activating every blade you need to think about what will be your next target before going on your primary target essentially you need to be thinking multiple steps ahead so that you can easily dash instantly to the next target that the second after you kill the first target the last thing you need identify is easy prey versus difficult prey easy prayer are things I have very little counter play to you if your close up on them think someone like Zen without an ultimate or Widowmaker who isn't paying attention to you at all these characters are easy primary targets if they already use their movement abilities or don't have any because they can't easily turn the tables on you and shut you down now difficult prayer are things that are not easy to kill or have abilities that can easily show you down think someone like doom fists McCree honor these characters all have abilities that could shut get you down and blade so you need to identify what those cooldowns are either keep track and going when they don't have them or add engaging mechanical mix-ups in order to shut them down I'll break down gauging mechanical mix-ups in just a second but first let's go into our third core topic how to avoid being shut down this is indicate above all the things that I talked about before but you need to know what counters you and keep track of it lucio beat transcendence graviton whole-hog these are all things that can shut you down easily and you really need to keep track of it and make a plan in order to play around it do you know that czar is gonna grab you as you try to go in maybe you try to debate her and double jump + dash away in order to make her waist her grab maybe you could set up a reflect play on the grab if you know what's coming there's a lot of different things that you could do as long as you keep track of the abilities that people are trying to counter you with and make a game plan with Genji's blade on top of that another aspect about avoiding being shut down is how fast are you the quick who you are would drag a blade the more overall mistakes you can actually make this is a weird concept to understand but think about this example think about the extremely fast blading streamers that you see necrose and calvary well their blades aren't necessarily the smartest they're extremely fast and it makes it really hard for the enemy team to punish them there's a ratio of lethality to pressure the more lethal you are the more pressure you put on the enemy team to perform a hyper aggressive gedgie that is very quick is that much harder to punish that being said it's not worth increasing your speed until the fundamental other aspects of your blading-- is already work on every single one of these other aspects first and then slowly increase your speed to comfortable levels because the quicker you get the more lethal you'll be well you don't want to let go of your fundamentals in the process now we're jumping right back into the genji mechanical mixes that I talked about before if they can help you take down difficult prey that have specific cooldowns or abilities that can shut you down again and again there are a number of gedgie mechanical mix ups but let's just jump in and break some some of the big ones right here now the first thing we have to go over is the simple reflect and then animation cancelled - in this way as a Genji comes down he reflects the Ana's abilities such as her sleep dart or Nate and then he can easily animation cancel it with his - or go into his combo you can do this against many characters but essentially what you want to do every time is reflect and you can animation cancel it with your - keep in mind that you get another - every time you dragon blades so if you - up and blade you'll get another - to go into your combo now moving on to tip number two this one's fundamentally different this is a jump fade you do this in order to save your reflect so you can use it later on in the combo essentially what you want to do here is you want to - from the high ground without using your jump and jump right before you get to the enemy you can easily use this to bay things like flashbang or sleep dark essentially this allows genji to mix up and dodge enemy abilities but also hold on to reflects you can use it at different points - the combo later on combining these two types of dragon blading mix-ups together can make you a master blader and making it really hard for the enemy team to punish you mid dragon blade for the next mix-up what this one is is a - through the enemy reflect and wall run to cancel your reflect into the rest of the combo you wall run to cancer reflex you could start slashing immediately and go right into dealing damage now we're gonna run through two specific examples in slow-mo to help you get an idea of some of the things you need to think about when trying to get these dragon blades off that being said pound for pound the best way to get more consistent dragon blades is going to game to calm game be calm as the best Gangi guys you'll find anywhere we have high quality in-depth var reviews created by Grand Master players to help you become that gedgie guard as quickly as possible or get you got a particular is extremely stacked so if you want to master Genji as quickly as possible do yourself a favor and come check us out on the links here now for this first blade this comes out of circumstance this is not a flashy blade by any means but it gets the job done and I execute some interesting strategy throughout this blade now when dashing back in here because of my immortality field why do you think that I blade it directly in front of the Lucio you might be saying you know the Lucio has Boop so why would you drag and play directly in front of them the important thing to understand here is one I'm not threatened by the Lucio and two if I get extremely close to him the Lucio is forced to boot me away lastly the final important straw here is after I activate my Dragon blade I get another - in order to pursue this Lucio essentially while he can boot me away I get my - to reclose the distance but he's pressured to use the boot because I could easily burst him down if he doesn't get some distance between me and him now the follow-up is easy I chase down this Lucio because I want to confirm this kill as quickly as possible after that I go back to the main objective because I see that it's contested and I easily find a Nash and they get another follow-up on the honour I see far too many gangees activate blade - into a Lucio and get booped away unable to secure any value if you close the distance first and activate your dragon blade in front of the Lucio he's pressured to Boop you away then you can chase him down with the extra - you gain now for the next dragon blade it's another dragon blade of circumstance the important thing with Genji is when plating without something like nano blade or a combo you need to get really crafty and count cooldowns I see that the Makri wasted flash here so I use it as an opportunity to easily try to secure some kills on him in the honour I slash animation canceled - to easily burst these two then I go fishing for more well I couldn't play over on the Lucile Boop here I allowed myself to get two kills and then follow up onto the ERISA the important thing to understand about each and every dragon blade is you won't be prepared for every single circumstance that will come up mid blade what you need to be able to do is be adaptable and try to develop consistent fundamentals so that each and every dragon blade becomes more and more successful while both these dragon blade examples weren't flashy I identified an opportunity and I took it for guaranteed value not every blade is gonna be those 5 6 K blades but consistent two to three men dragon blades will you get kills and don't die can win you tons of games overall on Genji anyways I hope this dragon blade guide has been extremely helpful for you any questions please them in the comments down below as well as any other in-depth concept guides that you want me to make I would love to make them anyways I'm coach Mills and until next time [Music]
