I think you should show off large fights, small fights, Elite Boss Victims, and eventually fight an AV.
Really do a sort of montage video effect by switching from one action to the other.
I have an idea.....
Try to "advertise" the combo! Think of your video as promotional and demonstrational in both parts by creating a stunning visiual mesh of both large and single-targetted battles.
As for powerful enemies you don't exactly have to showcase their total defeats, just film the fight against them with a cinematic feel (if possible).
Take, for example, the promotional CoX videos. Do something like that! Be a revolutionary, heh.
But if you don't want to do that just basically showcase how good your MM is/how sweet you can handle the set.
I'd watch that 
I would like to see Oil Slick Arrow in action...since my highest TA is only 26 right now.
Other than that I'm not picky...I'll watch it

This won't be my only video, still keeping your ideas in mind.

Very nicely done video. Great quality.
What else can ignite Oil Slick besides Flamethrower? Commando doesn't use it unless he is at closer range. 
I don't know. I just feel Oil Slick looks quite weak because other sets like /dark and /storm, they use Pet debuff values so their base debuff values are a lot higher than TA's. One Freezing Rain can debuff 30% resistance while Disruption Arrow only debuffs 15%. You have to throw Acid Arrow to get to 30%.
Endurance cost also seems high to do the job. Freezing Rain costs 22 end but Disruption + Acid Arrow = 27ish end.
I would like to try TA again but I just don't think it's gonna be good.
What's left is to normalize all Assassin Strikes and improve Stalker's old sets (Claw, MA and EM)! You don't need to bring back the missing PbAoE attack. You just need to make the existing ones better! For example, make Slice a WIDER and LONGER cone.

2 origin powers can light the oil slick, I have a macro that targets OSA and uses apprentice charm at the same time, since it has no defense I find it really easy to light and only miss on a few occassions (but with such a low recharge on the power I can try it up to 7ish times though I never get past 2). The odd thing is that I have absolutely no clue what lit OSA in that video. TA is very light on endurance (compared to storm it costs nothing lol). I only picked up stamina because of EMP arrow and I didn't feel like slotting IOs that gave +recovery bonuses. OSA makes the set do more damage than dark or storm.
Edit: Can't find where it was said, but I'm pretty sure disruption stacks with itself. And I know glue arrow does.

Any Fire or Energy damage can ignite Oil Slick. It will ignore any other form of damage.

Apples and oranges.
OSA is not primarily a debuff. It's a damage power... that happens to have a debuff and soft control aspect.
At 50, unslotted, it will deal 3.34 Fire damage every .2s for 15s once ignited. That's 75 ticks dishing out a total 250.5 damage. It will also slow the affected foes, knock them down routinely and apply a -DEF debuff.
EDIT: And yes. Since Disruption Arrow is spawned via a pseudo-pet, it will stack. Provided you have enough Recharge to do so, of course.

I also think people aren't taking into consideration the nature of the set. It is ALL targeted AoE. No melee for you or your pets. And the slows keep them nice and bunched up w/ no scatter like /storm. Yes, /storm can debuff resistance better, but can you use thunder clap or gale or hurricane or tornado or even freezing rain without having enemies scatter from merc's small cones? TA also handles being mezzed much better, they have no toggles to shut off. Mercs don't need the resistance from exotic damage types and the stealth steamy mist provides is equivalent to flash arrow's -perception. I'm certain that merc/TA > merc/storm.
Edit: Actually I'm going to say that with all aspects considered merc/TA is greater than any other merc/ combination and merc/TA is better than any other /TA combination (except perhaps bots or thugs).
What should I do in it?
