Winners of the Path of Exile Video-Making Competition

Respect to every winner and runner up!

But again this is a competition where the community should have voted. The "king of swords" video is really on a totally different level than any of the other videos showcased here. There is an amazing skill involved and not seing this in the top three makes me just shake my head in disbelief.

I wonder who decided on the winners this time, but it was most likely not the art department.

First and second were nice. King of swords was insane though

Anyone, like myself, feeling a bit down for not placing try and remember that this contest isn't a validation of your hard work and creativity. All of us put a lot of work into their own videos and regardless of some strangers opinion of it, it's still a great thing that you even took the time to create something good/funny/beautiful (in it's own right). Although I am not a believer in trophies for participation, I do believe as long as you try it means something. Keep your heads up fella's and ladies.

Bullshit.

In future, if that contest return in some form, I will not even think to participate. Because some of winner are very questionable and contest have no any criteria. Even 'under 3 minutes' words is fucked up at the end.

PS! My first prize would have gone to "King of Swords by KungFuPanda2" Amazing job!!!!

KING OF SWORDS!

WORK OF ART

Congratulations to the winners and runner-up's thanks GGG for a great game (can't wait for the next league) I don't really care about the order of who got what, since the prizes are not large stacks of money, it's more about the journey then the destination.

THX to all who liked king of swords rly means a lot. (theres no voice acting its just the story from the stones on the road to the grand arena)

Happy to be in top 10.

I'm trying to stop it but i'm slowly turning from PoE fan into PoE hater for these contests.

For real, i just dont get it, how the fuq "Jugg MKIII" video, that needs 30 minutes to montage and same amount to play and film whatever u need, can hold the third place of the contest, where "King of Swords" hold, like, 7th? Dudes, come on. WTF, who did judge this contest?

I was creating my own video for 20 hours of pure montaging, rendering, showing it to my friends to judge me, we together worked out to make it better, then i did rerendered it, and again showed, again found something, again rerendered.

JUST COME ON, WHAT IS THIS, I STARTED TO MAKE CONTEST TO NOT LET IT BE THIS PATHETIC, WHEN PRIZE POOL IS DIVIDED BY JUGG MKIII, I DID THIS FOR POE AS WELL AS FOR MYSELF (i really was thinking i'll get 3rd place).

Who. Judged. This.
WHO?!

AFTER ALL OF THIS I OBSERVE AS I WASN'T EVEN MENTIONED AS RUNNER UP, WHEN THIS GUY IS SHOWED?! https://youtu.be/6P_nGVvxiHE WTF, COME ON. WHAT IS THIS????????????????
IT'S LIKE 50 SECONDS OF NOTHING SPECIAL. AND I LOST TO THIS????

Really pissed off. Fuq these contests, real bullshit.

P.S. Even dude with strong mental health (veteran of DotA) it really turning me into hater, i can't hold it after this.
P.S.S. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=mD_a2Ng1tMU This is good video, btw, my dude.

I really don't get critteria's, i got that feeling that refferee's just look at the first 20 seconds of video and turn it off after this, but EVEN THEN I DON'T GET HOW EE's video is on third place!

My video proves that fun wasn't critteria https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=T67finar04k;
the video of this dude who also don't get the Runner Up (EVEN RUNNER UP) proves epicness doesn't matter at all too https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=mD_a2Ng1tMU


I was expecting 1-3 places, really disappointed with the results, waste of time, and anything... :/

not to shatter your dreams or anything but your video was bad, i hated how EE got top 3 but your video was.... dunno how to put it nicely.
