4s and with the big delay over we're back
5s here in the arena with uh lasers first
7s pancakes uh we have a beautiful match
9s battery experts first fancy pants and uh
12s mod please tell us what they got
15s yeah so uh boundary experts has brought
16s a triple bar guest a guardian pontifex
18s double arbitrator punisher garmer
21s skybreaker and fancy pants um choosing
23s to go triple apoc ashimu magus double
26s deacon confessor and two vectors
29s both teams bringing out the weird
31s cruises here like a shimu and then
32s arbitrators obviously darby's bringing
34s the tracking instructors but the ship
35s you're bringing
36s slightly longer webs and some and some
38s sucking power
40s definitely interesting matchup we're
41s gonna be seeing here sure obviously a
42s couple of vexes these are definitely new
43s vexes they've got no guns again
46s so that's perfect yeah it'll be
48s it'll be really interesting to see if
50s these arbitrators how they're split
52s between um missile guidance disruption
54s and tracking disruption because if those
56s arbitrators went all in on missile
58s guidance they're going to be in uh for
61s quite a surprise so we'll see in a
63s couple seconds once those um napox get
66s locked up what's quite going on there uh
68s speaking of what's going on um that
69s garment is already down into low shield
72s here um yep so the obviously yeah it's
75s all getting pounded
77s yeah and we see a tracking disruption
79s but not quite spread across the core of
81s navy apox leading me to think that they
83s were split between missile guidance and
86s um tracking disruption going 50 50. so
90s one of the an apoc's not quite getting
92s disrupted here one of the things though
93s that is getting disrupted is the armor
95s of cassie gerald down into low armor
98s here um getting absolutely pounded by
100s those long-range missiles on the bar
102s guest
102s i don't want to call it too early but i
104s think he's just never mind i was gonna
106s say just about gonna hold but they're
108s finally breaking through a bit must be
109s hitting the reps
111s they just got a absolute swarm of rep
114s drones on him at the moment as well as
115s of course his logic trying to save him
117s if he survives long enough this might be
118s trouble for the um for these bargains
120s because they are gonna not they're gonna
121s be clip based they're gonna run out of
123s clips soon
124s yeah i'm just kind of counting the
126s missiles usually um yeah the bargains
129s are going to be on reload now so we see
131s the attack bar drop off pretty hard and
133s um casey gerald is going to you know get
136s wrecked back nearly fully here um
139s now that those uh bargains would destroy
141s liam and avery are you know on their
143s reload at the moment but the confessor
145s just keeps it's absolutely one tapped
147s i'm not quite sure what exactly that was
150s that that might have been maybe a
151s bargain a bug saying like a missile to
153s and just doing like a one shot
154s but look at the eight buck navy's are
156s trying to go for the bugs they can't
157s kill the arbitrators under this tracking
159s shop like you know what fine then we
161s don't need tracking to shoot at barges
162s it's a pancake it's literally the size
164s of a barn door we're all good
166s so they're trying to go for this bug now
168s but honestly taking down a fully armored
170s bag with a guardian wrapping it
172s that is also a tool it looks like both
174s teams are honestly kind of fumbling the
176s start they're definitely testing each
177s other out for sure
179s yeah they're testing things out and one
181s of the difficulties that um you know
183s fancy pants is going to have being
185s distracting disrupted and they are
186s deciding to close in they're decided
188s we're tired of trying to fight at range
190s they're going to close with their knee
192s pocks is that they realize that if
193s they're just going to shoot scorch
195s they're not going to break every louis
197s um
197s the reactive armor hardener will cycle
200s and will sustain him uh however uh the
202s magus of zarothel is
205s apparently wasn't locked because he was
207s taking significant damage uh without
209s getting any reps for some time and if
211s that magus goes down that's all the
213s links for fancy pants and he's gone oh
217s that may not that won't hurt for now but
219s in about a minute or two you're gonna
220s watch the team start to suffer through
222s lacking their links
224s this is slowly going against fancy
226s plants they need to really like put down
227s the hurt with those navy apocs which we
229s know they can do but these arby's are
231s almost like a perfect counter to them
233s removing that tracking bonus effectively
235s yeah i mean you're in a very awkward
237s position where you get tracking
238s disrupted at range and you have to close
241s or you're just going to get picked apart
243s by bargas that
245s while
246s you know they
248s don't have the most survivable of tanks
250s they have a lot of utility and they have
252s a lot of projection and we can see that
253s that's been what's picked apart the
255s magus and the confessor when the deacons
257s were caught slipping
260s yeah a quick look as well it looks like
262s the um yashimu is trying to like nude
264s out this punisher trying to tackle him
265s so he's trying to like be a bit of a
266s screen himself doesn't seem like it's
269s quite working this arbitrary does take
270s occasionally like very hard hits but the
272s guardian's been keeping up like an
274s absolute champ
276s yeah so the garment did here is he used
278s himself to basically screen off the
280s ashimu so the ashima what he wanted to
282s do was used his bonus um webs to the
286s range and his bonus newts basically a
288s mini balgorn was to get on top of gan's
290s apples in the guardian and web him down
292s and basically shut off um anything he
295s could do with those newts and the
297s garment got in his way screened him off
299s so
299s now you're in a very awkward position if
302s you're in fancy pants even more so now
304s that you're being grappled and webbed
306s yourselves by those bar guests
309s kind of wondering what these vectors are
310s up here looks like the vectors are
311s currently going in as well that's good
313s to see but i'm trying to figure like
314s what are they aiming for i think they're
315s going to go for a bug yep all right
317s they're all inning the bag here they're
319s sending everything and the vex is going
320s in for the needing power this isn't
322s they're all an attempt to try and beat
323s that bar down before the navy apoc goes
325s down
326s it goes i guess you gotta go for it
328s yeah and now that you're being screened
330s off in your navy apocs um you basically
333s have to commit to destoya here who is
335s now receiving a cloud of uh medium rep
338s bots and
339s damage drones it just looks like a giant
341s um
342s ball around him just a swarm of
344s everything and
345s one of the things that these navy apocs
348s lack is kind of those utility smart
350s bombs to really clear those off
353s yep but the first navy apoc for fans
355s plans deciding to go down i feel like
357s these vectors could have been like when
358s useful they were neuting out these
359s arbitrators the ones that are pretty
360s much making these apox worthless and
362s when this first one goes down that's
363s gonna make the tracking even worse for
365s the next one this is going to start
366s snowballing even more
368s yeah we saw how fast uh lush managed to
371s drop once those magus links expired
373s about a minute minute and a half ago and
376s you know the bargains at this point are
378s going to have no trouble chewing through
379s this mixer of druby they just pop in
382s very quickly i wouldn't be surprised if
383s cassie will was the next and he will be
386s in the next primary um these bar guests
388s are just going to work through the core
390s once those vectors are off and those
392s drones are no longer a threat they'll
394s eventually work through the ashimu and
396s the navy apocs i think they're just
398s going to sweep this 100-0 wing nut yeah
400s i'm pretty much with you there now man
402s like they had an opportunity there
404s they tried for it i think they kind of
406s like maybe squandered a bit by having
407s the vexes to try and neute out the bar
409s when trying to nude out these damn
410s arbitrators
411s but yeah at this point they're kind of
414s like in deep trouble there's not really
415s a play they can make and they can't
416s shoot the rb they try they can't shoot
418s the bar gets tanking they could try and
420s shoot the guardian but i mean good luck
422s they're kind of just stuck with you know
424s up creek without a powder right now
427s whoops yeah and that's one of the
428s awkward situations that you do put
430s yourself into so navy a-plots they get
432s excellent bonuses to tracking into their
434s range but
436s as a result
437s they don't output a lot of damage like
439s say in abaddon
441s and as a result you have to close to
443s range you basically have to get on top
445s of the guardian and kill it or at least
447s kill the lynx to remove that utility and
451s if you don't have that you're not going
452s to break through battleships and we're
454s seeing that be the case that god's
456s apples is now finally getting primaried
458s we see some damage on to him but i mean
461s it's just way too little too late with
462s only three minutes left in the match
465s a quick mention as well is that every
466s every single ship on this comp of um
469s bounty experts has anywhere between 25
471s to 50 mb of drone bay so they've just
473s been spraying out the rep drones so it
476s makes it even more impossible to
477s actually get a kill here
479s and that's honestly there's a lot of
481s rapping power
483s yeah people especially those in newer
486s teams really underestimate how much um
488s those logie drones really can be if you
491s have flights of heavies on you you
493s effectively have a second you know
495s guardian on your team and you know
498s guardians being 16 points as they are
500s you kind of um sort of appoint yourself
503s with how much longie
505s you really can have
507s as we see another navy apoc of catarina
510s drop and now those deacons being chased
513s after
514s will have
516s scrammed and webbed on them shortly
518s getting muted out and here's an
520s interesting thing
521s look at that guardian with only one
523s napoc around i mean it's starting to
524s fill back up with two but at the start
527s they might have the dps that just break
528s the guardian straight out
530s that that's probably gonna hurt if that
531s that is actually the case because that
533s guardian was actually going down quite a
534s bit
536s that they could have made me go for the
538s king slang just killed it
540s yeah the guardian didn't quite have um a
543s lot of rupt drones on top of him
545s initially when he was taking damage and
547s then they were up the vargas were you
549s know on top of the ball and did apply
551s those drones but i mean this was
554s excellence
555s from the boundary expert support corps
557s we saw the skybreaker and the garmer and
560s the punisher combined six points worth
562s of damage basically screen out any sort
564s of tackle from the vexers the confessor
568s and you know those deacons uh once you
570s prevent your guardian from being held
572s down and you know muted and tackled he
574s can basically pilot free and just
577s you know happily sit and just
580s rep without having to worry about his
582s positioning or having to worry about
584s being you know primaries himself
587s yep absolutely bravo to boundary experts
589s this is actually a quiet performance at
590s the very start seemed a bit rough for
592s them but they
593s just came straight through and pile
594s drove this team after so honestly bravo
597s it's a great comp and it's well flowing
599s these last dickens are just about to die
601s in split seconds between each other so
603s not gonna be long for this world
605s yeah i'm i'm really liking what we're
607s seeing out of uh boundary experts i
610s think they executed this um fairly well
612s um we're seeing now that as we're
614s getting deeper into the tournament um
616s you know more of these armored bargas
617s setups more of these kind of like armor
619s nightmare setups
620s setups that these
622s lower level teams aren't quite really
625s ready for um
627s i'm sure that broadcast studio will have
629s plenty to say about that one uh so for
632s wing and myself
633s goodbye and have a good one
