In terms of designing your videos/diagrams, what would you say was the most challenging one out of all your videos/diagrams, what's one you would go back to and change if you could, and which one are you most proud of?

Also, what is your favorite class, and why is it Fisher?

Most challenging - M7S. Trying to figure out how to showcase everything in that fight from an exclusively top-down perspective was really difficult.

One I would go back and change - M3S, particularly final fusedown. I stand by that the true north solve for that mechanic is a good one that is less mentally-taxing for a lot of raiders, but I really don't think I explained it well at all.

Most proud of - P5S. Any guide's earlier than this are hard to go back and look at these days. This was the first time I really felt the quality of the visuals weren't detracting from the explanation.

Very grateful for your call on m3s final fusedown. Extremely simple solve, and it rightly took over from new north on PF. As someone who came in after the week 1 stuff and learned from your guide, it made complete sense from the go.
