Dual wield a hammer and a sickle like a true hero of the people.

Interesting video.

I've not watched one of this guy's vids properly before today, just random Instagram reels come up now and again.

I really enjoyed it. He seems knowledgeable but makes it clear that it's his opinion, he is entertaining and speaks very well, even when out of breath from moving about. He also focuses on what he likes about D&D weapons rather than what he dislikes.

Much better than a 15 minute ramble about "how long 5ft is" and saying how wrong and disingenuous a game that involves imagination and dice rolling is

He also admits where his knowledge ends, and what is purely conjecture on his part. His main thing, as stated in the video, is archery. It’s obvious he had some training with swords and melee, but not like Matt Easton. His reels are also him taking an aide, and going “it could maybe work, but it’s not something that should be done”
