Radikal is a mage who is well known and respected for his PTR duels. He made a PTR movie around the same times as Ming's. I really enjoyed that movie. It is much easier to follow than Ming's since it is all in first person and I personally enjoyed the music. He doesn't do really heavy editting, but the intro is nice and things move along very smoothly. This is the type of movie you want to watch if you are switching classes and want to learn and get some tips on how to play a WE mage against a variety of classes. The video quality is good so you can easily see what is going on, and the play is very technical.
The biggest complaint about Radikal's movies on WCM is that he jumps to much:
"U JUPM 2 MUCH U SUK - rating 1/5"
He has a newer PTR movie out as well. I wasn't able to watch the whole thing, but it is in the same style as the first. A LOT of the opponents in both movies with be familiar to you if you have followed PvP movies for awhile. Ming, Unsouled, Akrios(Eviscerate), Dahis, Spoh, GC, Azael, etc. etc. IMO, it makes things a little more interesting when you are familiar with both opponents and you aren't quite certain which one of them is going to come out on top. (Although many of the outcomes I saw were somewhat predictable just from the class matchups themselves)
Again, if you are looking for some entertaining mage world PVP with some worthy opponents, then Drifting 3 is up your alley. If you are looking for a more technical movie in a clinical dueling enviroment for educational purposes then Radikal's movies are what you are looking for. He even gives fight-by-fight commentary for his more recent movie - something I got flamed for, but something which I think is appreciated by people looking to learn something about the class.
Not everyone is a vet, some people are fresh rerolls or players looking for tips. What's wrong with helping people? Information should be given freely and without flames, IMO.
Radikal's site also includes other important info for mages, such as gear changes or additions, an evolving strategy guide, and more.
