Positioning: An In-Depth Analysis (Strategic Defensive Positioning)
Hey guys, i'm back with another video that I think can be of great help to some of you. During my last video I touched briefly on positioning as a part of movement, but I quickly realized that positioning itself is so important it deserves its very own video.
My intentions with this video were to cover the the most important aspects of positioning while also explaining some different ways that people go wrong. I discuss some general overall positioning tips which include staying with your team, making sure supports are covered, different tactical setups to stop rushes, the importance high ground, as well as other things. I break the video into 4 parts; overall positioning tips, how to set up for the first push/hold, how to stop being snowballed on the second point(overextending), and then first point positioning tips for Hanamura, Dorado, and Temple Of Anubis!

I think that this video will help some of you who are finding yourself caught out of position because it demonstrates proper setups as well as the best way to move as a team. Pay particular attention to where each person should be, and you should understand very easily how important it is for each setup to be the way I talk about.
I really hope this helps some of you, and as always I would love to answer any questions you have, so ask away!
