SHIV advanced movement guide: "No one's better than me"

I notice that even high ranked players don't use Shiv's movement so I made a quick guide about how to use it.

It won't let me link the raw video file since it's too large; but here's a link:

Should post this on youtube. And shorten it, lots of meandering the point. Great ideas though!

Thanks I will try to edit it down; I was just trying to give the main juice in the first couple minutes, the rest is just some random uses I found on the map, but like I say in the beginning; it's such a fundamental tech that every player will discover their own uses for it.

"Hey, do you use Stam or Boots on Shiv?"
"Titanic Mag"
"Titani- what?"
"Titanic Mag"

Also, where the infini-slide shot appreciation
Slide backwards and just keep M2-ing. I stumbled on more walls doing that, though.

I tried this before, but you are heavily inflating how useful this is in practice. I did the same thing with Viscous, but Viscous' movement is way better because it simply isn't as commital. Viscous can cross an entirely lane faster than Shiv can with this tech at only a single stamina bar.

You give yourself infinite stamina and infinite ammunition, but unfortunately in-game this will pose a serious challenge. Almost everything you demonstrate in this video consumes more than a single stamina bar. You do provide some actually useful movement vertically, like the first climb consumes just a single bar - which is quite impressive and I myself hadn't figured out yet.

Unfortunately almost everything else you state is nonsensical. The prime example being around 3:40, where you somewhat pedantically dismiss speed boots "because you can just do this". In the jump you demonstrate you use 8 ammo and 4 stamina bars. I'm sorry but that is not remotely practical.

I think the most useful thing I've found out of this is the ability to get on rooves with this tech. Its easy to get bonus ammo with melee charge on Shiv in a jungle pop on a roof real quick locate an ez kill and swoop down like a hawk with full combo on an unsuspecting victim.
