0:00Are you tired of failing your tier test?
0:01Well, in this video, I'm going to give
0:02you a full breakdown on how to get low
0:04tier three in Crystal PvP. I'll be
0:06covering everything you need to get low
0:07tier three such as mechanics, keybinds,
0:09kit, and game sense techniques. Whether
0:11you're just trying to get low tier three
0:12or even pass eval, if you follow this
0:14guide to the T, I can almost guarantee
0:16you will do better on your [music] next
0:18test. But, enough with the app, let's
0:19get into it.
0:25Your kit is probably one of the most
0:26important things when it comes to eval.
0:27Here is my kit, but what makes it
0:29special? Well, first and most
0:30importantly, always use double blast
0:32prot. If you don't, you're basically
0:33asking to fail. The initial switch can
0:35be pretty hard from prot to double blast
0:36prot, but trust me, you will get used to
0:38it and it is so much better. Next, I use
0:41a knockback two sword. Now, before you
0:43absolutely flame me, let me justify it.
0:45If you don't already know, most tier
0:47twos use knockback two because in holes,
0:49it gives you plenty of advantages such
0:51as being able to hit your opponent onto
0:53a ledge, which can lead to several pops,
0:55hit your opponent far enough away to
0:56spam safe anchors, and lastly, it just
0:58gives your opponent more airtime, which
1:00leads to easier detaps. The switch can
1:02be really weird at first, but it will
1:03help so much in the future. Another
1:05thing that's becoming meta is thorns,
1:07but I don't personally use it unless
1:08it's high tier three plus fights. My kit
1:10also has a little bit of other things
1:11which are nice like all the utilities
1:13you'll need, an extra stack of glowstone
1:14for longer fights, and obviously all the
1:16regular stuff. It also complies with all
1:18tier list rules, so you're good.
1:24As for mechanics, I'm first going to go
1:26over all the basic mechanics you need
1:27just in general to even consider getting
1:29low tier three. First, you need to know
1:30how to detap, anchor, and totem very
1:32consistently. If you manage to get these
1:34down, congrats, you're already at least
1:35low tier four skill. But, there's still
1:37other mechanics that are very useful.
1:38One of my personal favorites being safe
1:40anchoring and obby anchoring. Safe
1:41anchors provide the benefit of being
1:43able to anchor whilst not popping
1:44yourself, but only your opponent. Obby
1:46anchoring is typically only used when
1:47you know you [music] and your opponent
1:48are about to trade safe anchors. If
1:50there's only one mechanic I would
1:51suggest to anyone to get fast at, it's
1:53safe anchoring just because of how
1:54versatile and easy it is. Another
1:56mechanic I would suggest learning is hit
1:58D tap anchoring. Because opponents are
1:59always in double blast prod, they're
2:01basically unable to double pop. This
2:02technique provides a guaranteed way to
2:05always double pop your opponent. It's
2:06also what Dr. Dona uses very frequently
2:08to kill his opponents. And honestly, if
2:10you can do these mechanics really well,
2:12you will be able to get low tier three.
2:13[music] If you want a more in-depth
2:14guide on even more mechanics, check out
2:16my advanced mechanics video. But there
2:18is something we still got to cover.
2:23Game sense is the most important thing
2:25when it comes to your tier test, and it
2:26is more important than mechanics. So,
2:28I'm first going to go over all the game
2:29sense techniques you will need during
2:31your test. First of all, if you're
2:32losing the initial whole fight, don't be
2:33afraid to pearl out to recollect
2:35yourself. The start of a whole fight can
2:36determine the outcome of the round, so
2:38it's important to always [music] have a
2:39good start. This means you should also
2:41slow fall your tester before taking any
2:42holes. Additionally, if you're winning
2:44the initial whole [music] fight and your
2:45tester pearls out to re-gear, take your
2:47time to re-gear as well. You're already
2:49winning, so it's okay to take some time
2:51to re-gear. I've seen so many players
2:52hard aggro their tester when they're
2:54winning and end up taking a bad hole and
2:55losing. Now, another thing to consider
2:57is when you get below eight totems,
2:59>> [music]
2:59>> start using your shield to block
3:00attacks. It's important to switch to a
3:02defensive play style once you're low on
3:03totems, cuz now your objective is to
3:05drain your tester's lead. This means
3:07[music] only taking holes you know
3:08you're going to win, ledge dashing, and
3:10safe anchoring a lot. You want to pop
3:12your testers more times than yourself.
3:14If you have better mechanics than your
3:15tester and you know that, it's okay to
3:17play a bit more aggro. That doesn't mean
3:19to spam anchors and pop yourself. No, I
3:21mean play aggro, but smart. If [music]
3:23you want a deeper insight on how high
3:24tier these play, check the description
3:26on this video where I have a 30-minute
3:28uncut video of pure gameplay you can
3:30study up on. If you also want a free
3:32coaching session from a low tier two,
3:33join my Discord [music] for a chance to
3:35win. But anyways, the general idea when
3:36it comes to your tier test is to play
3:38smart where you pop your tester as much
3:40as possible whilst minimizing the pops
3:42to yourself.
3:47Now look, I'm not expert on key binds.
3:48In fact, here are mine. A lot of people
3:50say they're bad, but I can give you some
3:52tips to make your keybinds way better.
3:54When it comes to detapping and
3:55anchoring, you want them to be on two
3:56different fingers. For example, I press
3:58Q for my obi with my ring finger and E
4:01for my crystal with my index finger.
4:02This means I can switch to my obi and
4:04crystals way faster. Same goes for my
4:06anchoring binds. Now, some keybinds I
4:08see so many people neglect are your
4:10toteming binds. You want your three
4:11keybinds for toteming, which are your
4:12inventory bind, your hot bar totem bind,
4:14and your swap offhand bind. All of these
4:16binds should be on different fingers to
4:18maximize toteming speed.
4:20I have my inventory bind as shift for my
4:22pinky, my hot bar totem is F for my
4:24index, and my offhand totem is my mouse
4:26button. Since they're all three
4:27different fingers, it speeds up my
4:29toteming drastically, but don't copy my
4:31binds. Everyone is different, so find
4:32binds that suit you. All I'm doing is
4:34giving you tips to make your keybinds
4:36better.
4:40Lastly, I'm going to go over a bunch of
4:41general tips that will help you speed up
4:43your training by so much. When it comes
4:45to practicing, always play with your
4:47eval kit. That means 14 totems max,
4:49whether you're playing rekit's whole or
4:50flat. This gets you used to the feeling
4:52of toteming with only 14 totems, which
4:54helps so much during your tier test. As
4:56for mentality, I highly suggest tier
4:58testing on fake tier list to recreate
5:00the feeling of tier testing normally.
5:02This really helped me with my nerves,
5:03and I know it will help you, too. Also,
5:05once your cooldown is up, try testing
5:07immediately after. A lot of players say,
5:09"Oh, I don't want to test unless I'm
5:10sure I'm getting low tier three." But
5:11no, you shouldn't. There isn't any harm
5:13in testing as soon as possible because
5:15you're either going to stay the same
5:16tier you are right now or rank up. And
5:18who knows, you might end up peaking and
5:20get low tier three. Another thing I like
5:21to do when I'm tier testing is I usually
5:23get into a call with some of my friends
5:25that I get some coaching while I'm
5:26testing, and it helps with my nerves.
5:28Finally, the last tip I can give you is
5:30to touch grass. Yes, I mean that.
5:32Sometimes people get way too caught up
5:34in trying to train, and it's important
5:35to remember it's just a video game. So,
5:37if you get heated, go outside and touch
5:39some grass. Anyways, that's it. All of
5:41the things you need to get low tier
5:42three in your next vanilla test. If this
5:44helps in any way, make sure to like and
5:46subscribe. And if you have any
5:47additional questions or want a chance to
5:49get free coaching from a low tier two

5:52Hopefully, this guide gets you one step
5:54closer to low tier three. Thanks for
5:55watching, and I'll see you next time.
