638s	B let's
640s	[Music]
645s	go fortnite fans around the world
649s	welcome to the fncs global Championship
654s	we've been doing this for a while and
656s	now here we are please give a warm
660s	welcome to mini Miner and of course
661s	Kelly Link who will be your analyst for
663s	this bit that's right crowd y'all can go
665s	crazy that's okay man to think guys
668s	we've been talking about globals all
670s	year you know globals it's yeah globals
672s	is this far away it's this far away now
674s	here we are how do you feel we made it
678s	we made it we're here finally the whole
680s	year has been building up to this major
683s	one two3 the last chance major but
685s	finally we have made it and in front of
687s	this amazing audience right here in
689s	Copenhagen this is where it all goes
690s	down honestly Zeke I've been waiting for
693s	this moment since the Invitational
695s	finished up last year and like you said
697s	this has been leading up to it since
699s	Majors 1 two and three all these teams
702s	moving through and now we have a
703s	three-day competition with 4 million on
706s	the line I cannot wait to get started
709s	yeah I mean if we thought the
710s	competition was kind of crazy before
713s	this is just that very next step right
715s	normally we have two days of competition
717s	now it's three there's an upper a lower
719s	bracket only five games the first two
721s	days I mean pressure's on the pressure
724s	is on I mean the players will be feeling
725s	it they'll say they won't they'll say I
726s	got nerves of Steel yeah not nervous at
728s	all they are they're nervous definitely
730s	nervous uh but I mean how can't you be
732s	in this incredible arena in front of all
734s	these fans this is something we haven't
735s	seen before of course a single day Grand
738s	Final six games on Sunday five games in
740s	the uh upper the upper and the lower
742s	brackets so things is going to be a
743s	little bit different here yeah I think
745s	that's something we haven't really seen
746s	before in fortnite either this upper and
748s	lower bracket we're going to have 25
750s	teams that we don't even get to see
752s	compete tomorrow as well and also having
755s	it be five games and then the finals are
757s	only six games when we're used to a 12
760s	game finals it's going to be a bit
762s	unexpected I think that is what we are
764s	here for now how long are we here for
767s	let's take a look at that broadcast
768s	schedule as we've kind of mentioned
770s	today we will be here for five games we
772s	got an upper bracket tomorrow the lower
774s	bracket and make sure you do not miss
777s	Sunday the grand finals of the CS Global
781s	championships it's still so crazy to say
784s	those words out loud but here we are I
787s	mean guys what are your expectations
789s	coming into the weekend we've talked
790s	about the difficulty but what are your
792s	thoughts I'm expecting drama I'm
794s	expecting chaos I'm expecting excitement
796s	because if anything if the Invitational
798s	is anything to go by that was all three
800s	of those things so I mean on a grander
802s	scale bigger prize B bigger event across
805s	the whole year is going to be amazing I
807s	mean when you only have like a region
808s	logged tournament in the fncs there's a
810s	lot of respect for where teams are going
812s	to be dropping but obviously by having
814s	six regions dropping all into each other
816s	there's going to be a bit of
817s	contestation especially around that
819s	creaky compound area where I think
821s	there's six teams competing for all the
823s	loot over there so it's going to be a
825s	bit chaotic at the start I think I can't
828s	wait to get into all of that and more
830s	but first it's not just us calling all
831s	the action why don't we do a little tour
833s	of the Arena there's so many people that
835s	are all involved in making this happen
837s	why don't we give a warm welcome to your
838s	casters
840s	thank you so much Zeke it's monster def
842s	here in the best taco of course the
843s	place is starting to fill up and these
845s	are not dinners it's excitement as of
847s	course we're all here brought together
849s	for the upper bracket where the top 25
852s	Duos will be moving on I'm just so happy
855s	to be here I mean you can already feel
857s	that little bit of tension in the air
859s	but the energy is so alive inside the
861s	venue and knowing that we are going to
863s	be witnessing gameplay from some of the
866s	strongest strongest 50 Duos essentially
869s	from their respective regions because of
870s	the fact it wasn't by any sort of
873s	circumstance or last minute changes no
875s	Majors won two and three that's what
876s	dictated today's upper bracket that's
878s	right and we've had so much time
879s	throughout the week to actually touch
881s	base with the players and I must say
882s	there isn't a shred of Doubt every
885s	single opponent that I've or competitor
887s	I've talked to about their opponents
889s	have said they feel like they are
890s	pushing their way through the top 25 it
893s	really shows you how the utmost of
895s	confidence is just exuberating out of
896s	the players here to be so as they start
899s	to take the stage later I mean there
901s	really are going to be some true upsets
903s	but I know who's really happy right now
904s	it's Frankie down on the floor you're
907s	absolutely right I am so excited to be
910s	here at the Royal arena in Copenhagen
912s	surrounded by so many fans who've turned
915s	out early on a Friday to support their
917s	favorite players I've met Mr Savage fans
921s	I've met Thomas fans I met crazy and
924s	Veno fans everyone here has got a
927s	favorite jro and everyone here
929s	absolutely loves fortnite earlier I was
933s	talking to 20-year-old Charlie who plays
936s	with her mom not zero builds because
938s	apparently her mom says zero builds is
942s	no fun it's got to be about builds for
943s	her I have to disagree I have plenty of
946s	fun in zero builds Charlie's mom but an
949s	absolute bunch of Legends surrounded by
951s	Legends here in the arena and I cannot
954s	wait to see the support they're going to
956s	be giving the players weekend and
959s	speaking of players they are nervously
961s	lining up behind the stage they've had
964s	to split from their jop partner that's
966s	the secret you'll find out why later on
968s	as they walk onto the stage and so it's
971s	almost like every man for himself or it
974s	would be but actually these players
977s	they're so delighted to see each other
978s	in person they're giving each other so
980s	much support and that's all going to
982s	change once they board the battle bus
985s	now someone who's been giving me a lot
986s	of support and taught me so much about
988s	fortnite the last year is my friend
990s	Vivid and he is over in the Creator
993s	Lounge doing the tour around the arena
996s	of course the fans are funneling in the
999s	players are hiding out backstage ready
1001s	to jump in but we also have more special
1005s	people here at the Royal Arena it's
1007s	going to be creators from around the
1009s	globe very very excited to talk to them
1012s	throughout the weekend kind of get some
1014s	of their Insight how they are feeling
1015s	about the event and check out all of the
1017s	content that they will will be producing
1020s	as the show goes on so I am currently
1022s	over at the Creator lounge and this is
1024s	where we getting some exclusive talks
1027s	with some of those creators now as far
1029s	as expectations are concerned for the
1031s	weekend I mean I'm going to be looking
1033s	towards the na guys that are going to be
1035s	competing right I am from na myself but
1037s	there's been a lot of talks about some
1039s	of the smaller regions showing up at the
1041s	global championships I mean we got
1042s	Brazil Asia Middle East oce here as well
1046s	cannot wait to see how all of the action
1048s	unfold just five games to the up upper
1051s	bracket today and as far as that goes
1054s	it's going to be very very exciting
1055s	Kelly talked about it's a brand new
1057s	format can't wait to see what the
1059s	players do with it but for now we got to
1060s	go back to the to the desk it's going to
1062s	be Zeke and the
1064s	crew thank you so much guys we are
1066s	getting closer to kicking off the
1069s	competition but what is at stake here
1072s	well this might bit of prize money yes

1077s	amount let's have a look just bit of
1079s	course a million dollars going to the

1096s	incredible sum of money $500,000 for
1099s	each of the winning Duo and of course
1100s	this is after Sunday's Grand finals is
1103s	where it's all going to go down this a
1105s	huge prize po K it's a huge prize po but
1107s	also it's a huge difference between
1108s	first and second place we saw at the
1110s	Invitational how close it was between
1113s	SEI and Cammy and quezy and voo how a
1115s	quick decision changed their placement
1118s	between first and second that today this
1120s	weekend is going to be a
1123s	$350,000 decision wow as well as this
1126s	incredible trophy that we're seeing
1128s	right now absolutely thanks and big
1130s	shout out to our friends over at
1132s	Swarovski I mean it's like the
1133s	Invitational trophy but just that much
1137s	crazier now obviously we have quite a
1140s	bit of expectations and I'm sure this
1142s	crowd viewers at home all have their own
1145s	is there people you guys have eyes on
1148s	lots and lots of people of course we
1149s	have so many GEOS to talk about and
1151s	there's plenty of GEOS that we have our
1153s	eyes on to do well of course across this
1155s	weekend of course one of which zagu one
1157s	of the Asia players of course teamed up
1158s	with pepo exciting Duo I'm excited to
1161s	see what they can do yeah I mean we have
1162s	50 teams to talk about so and we're
1164s	going to be breaking them down even more
1166s	but just looking at some of the Doom
1169s	that we have right now the names of like
1171s	Cooper and Meo we saw fisen and ketos at
1174s	the Invitational surprise all of us by
1177s	getting a fifth place against some of
1178s	the biggest names in the game I mean
1181s	just just look at this it's actually
1182s	crazy to see this on the screen because
1184s	these are some of the world's best
1186s	players all in one lobby together we're
1189s	seeing so many massive names on the
1190s	screen right there yzo and Rise Of
1192s	course qualifying through to the upper
1194s	bracket a team that we're going to have
1196s	our eyes on to take the take the
1197s	championship home potentially just wild
1200s	six regions all coming together on a
1202s	single stage there is going to be so
1205s	much chaos cuz now you're thinking okay
1207s	well I'm in this region I'm used to
1208s	fighting players from this region just
1210s	kidding there's five other regions that
1211s	I have to worry about and how they play
1213s	in their region mad now Kelly you
1215s	brought up a good point here du that I
1218s	wanted to kind of focus on we got to
1219s	talk about zagu we got to talk about
1220s	pepo clip we saw zagu back at the
1223s	Invitational and man they put on quite a
1225s	bit of performance so they they're
1226s	hoping to bring some of that experience
1228s	to today yeah I mean after game number
1230s	three of day one of Invitational zagu
1232s	and his Joe back then marim they were
1234s	actually in second place so a lot of
1236s	teams a lot of people would sort of see
1238s	AIA as a smaller region and not put them
1240s	in their top three but they have every
1242s	reason to be in people's top three
1244s	they're going to come out strong they're
1245s	going to come out aggressive and they're
1246s	going to be feisty they're also going to
1247s	be coming out of eclip State one of the
1250s	new pois we're seeing this season and
1252s	let me tell you this is an incredible
1254s	POI potentially unconned as well not
1258s	only are they going to have the Rifts
1259s	that are near them allowing them to
1260s	rotate but they're also going to have
1262s	those three Mythic podiums kind of
1264s	giving just a little bit more chance for
1266s	that RNG of what Mythic is going to be
1268s	dropping there also they had a great
1270s	performance in Majors 1 and two getting
1272s	that first place finish in major one and
1274s	then a second place finish in major two
1276s	major three though they actually split
1278s	they decided to play with different
1279s	teams or different teammates didn't
1281s	actually work out as well for them so
1282s	now they're back together they're
1283s	feeling good and hopefully they'll get
1284s	back to their winning ways that's right
1286s	we will definitely be focusing on them
1287s	but more Duos to across this entire
1290s	Lobby list of players let's take a look
1291s	at Suns and an on from
1293s	oce what can you tell me about These
1296s	Guys these guys are the backto back
1299s	Major one and major two grand final
1301s	winners coming from ooc as you mentioned
1303s	they are a fantastic Duo they're one of
1305s	only three Duos that actually go back to
1307s	back winning uh each different major so
1309s	I'm excited to see what they can do
1311s	today a little St from both of those
1312s	winning majors in all 24 games that they
1315s	played to those grand finals they only
1316s	failed to pick up an elimination in one
1319s	of those games so expect some electric
1321s	gameplay from them expect some
1322s	aggression for sure I love that you're
1324s	talking about aggression eliminations
1326s	because I'm going to talk about
1327s	placements now because in major 2 out of
1329s	the 12 games they played in 11 of them
1331s	they placed top 15 which is just unheard
1335s	of my only concern though is that
1338s	they're Landing naughty Nets which isn't
1341s	the most beneficial POI they also have
1343s	the likes of queasy and Veno Landing
1346s	just to the west of them so that's going
1348s	to be a little scary it's a difficult
1350s	spot to get storm search from Naughty
1351s	Nets has been traditionally one of those
1352s	spots particularly on OC they don't have
1353s	the practice on the global stage I'm
1355s	interested to see what they can bring to
1356s	it today because they're going to have
1357s	to pull out a few strategies for sure
1359s	Kelly you said a Duo quezy Veno why not
1362s	talk about the other side of that coin
1364s	oh you know we have to talk about that
1366s	Cammy seti right your Invitational
1368s	winners they went from winning the
1371s	Invitational to not having the best
1372s	start in major number one but following
1375s	they really picked up the pace yeah I
1376s	mean we know this Joe from this moment
1378s	is Kelly what a moment this was
1380s	Invitational quey and Veno contesting
1382s	them at their drops SP and we all know
1383s	how this went I mean knowing your POI
1387s	and the ins and outs is so pivotal and
1389s	we see that in this moment at the
1391s	Invitational why that made such a
1393s	difference why quezine Veno didn't know
1395s	that you couldn't build a wall there and
1397s	that's what separated them from success
1400s	and failure and I think they kind of got
1402s	a little taste of their own medicine
1404s	because in major 3 we saw them have a
1407s	little you know or I'm sorry major one
1408s	they had a kind of a rough start getting
1410s	23rd place right there in major 2 though
1413s	they got fifth place and then in major
1415s	three getting fourth place top five in
1419s	six of the 12 games yeah and as you can
1421s	see they're landing at frenzy field
1422s	today the biggest question mark for this
1424s	Duo for this competition today is that
1426s	they are actually contested which is
1428s	something we haven't seen from them
1429s	since major won this year they didn't
1431s	have a great major as you said Kelly but
1432s	for them they've been practicing a lot
1434s	off spawn at the moment and even they've
1436s	actually been practicing their drops in
1438s	Jo ccops at kenjutsu Crossing lands at
1442s	kju Cross it's quezy and Venom yes so I
1444s	wonder why they could be practicing
1446s	their drop at not their drop faot uh
1448s	probably probably no reason there's
1450s	probably no way that matters in any way
1452s	shape or form uh it's probably going to
1454s	happen at least we hope even just a
1457s	single time uh now the beauty of being
1459s	here in this setting is that we have the
1462s	players standing by we can actually talk
1465s	with them and who better to do that than
1467s	none other than Frank who is standing by
1469s	right here right now with none other
1471s	than man himself said yes I am I'm very
1475s	excited to be honest I'm quite nervous
1477s	and he is cool as a cucumber because
1479s	this man is no stranger to success at an
1483s	international land seti is this bringing
1486s	back memories of the Invitational this
1488s	is definitely bringing back many
1489s	memories and we're here to make some
1491s	more was that the B moment of Your Life
1493s	Lifting the trophy and rally yeah 100%
1496s	And I'm ready to make another one how
1497s	did you top that that though uh I guess
1499s	we have to see so tell me about this
1502s	year because it feels like you guys have
1504s	been on an upwards trajectory and you've
1507s	had to adapt your play style from just
1509s	being low ground to sometimes actually
1511s	challenging for High Ground what's that
1513s	being like uh it's been great it's been
1516s	great adapting because now we can play
1517s	low ground mid ground and High Ground so
1519s	just great combination what about
1521s	aggression because you're not
1523s	necessarily A team that does go for for
1525s	eliminations you do like to make the end
1527s	game do you think that's going to be
1529s	difficult for you to rack up those all
1531s	important points here I don't think it's
1533s	going to be difficult at all we're
1534s	goingon to make end game we're gonna
1535s	make some eliminations win some games
1537s	and that's it are there going to be any
1539s	interesting off sworm battles coming
1541s	your way oh yeah obviously and what will
1543s	happen if people do drop you I just be
1546s	prepared I can't wait to see it I
1548s	imagine you and Cami will be incredibly
1550s	prepared thank you so much Siti POA
1552s	gorum
1555s	uram thank you so much Frankie of course
1558s	se you can see the focus in his eyes he
1562s	is looking to prove something could they
1564s	be the ones to get the back to back from
1566s	Invitational all the way up to Global
1568s	Champions I think if you ask a lot of
1570s	people they would say yes I mean the
1572s	type of players that they are the way
1573s	that they are their sort of mindset
1575s	towards the game very very cool you saw
1577s	it in that interview very very cool very
1578s	very calm and collected is a you you got
1580s	to look out for without a doubt
1582s	absolutely well let's keep this ball
1584s	rolling cuz we know we want we want
1585s	games let's talk about the format what
1587s	does this look like so we kind of talked
1589s	about it we have an upper bracket a
1590s	lower Brack but let's break that down so
1591s	today and tomorrow we have five games
1593s	lined up then the top 25 from today will
1596s	go straight to day three in the grand
1598s	finals the players that end that bottom
1600s	25 will go to day number two where
1602s	players from the last chance major are
1604s	waiting then in day two that lower
1606s	bracket the top 25 from there we'll move
1609s	on to day number three that will give us
1611s	the top 50 best Duos from around the
1614s	world yeah this is going to be very very
1617s	exciting I mean this is something that
1618s	we haven't seen too much before I think
1619s	a lot of players might be thinking oh
1620s	you know what day number one upper
1622s	bracket it's just a good sort of day to
1623s	have an extra one in the bank right you
1625s	might have you might see day number two
1627s	as kind of like a backup in case things
1628s	don't go well on day one but no you want
1630s	to get rid of that mindset make sure you
1632s	do it now make sure you're qualifying
1633s	right here because you want to get it
1635s	done early you don't want to leave it
1636s	till tomorrow if you can't well
1637s	especially because all of these Duos
1639s	have been preparing for this day in day
1641s	two it's 25 new Duos that they'll be
1644s	facing against with drop spots that they
1646s	aren't too sure of so that is going to
1648s	throw a wrench in some things and also a
1651s	lot of these Duos are used to having a
1653s	day two to kind of prepare and and
1655s	research but they're not really getting
1657s	a 12 game series here yeah and I like
1659s	that you kind of talk about this day two
1660s	25 new teams there's just so much to
1662s	track of especially when you have things
1664s	like the points right we have 65 points
1666s	for the victory Royale every elimination
1668s	is worth four points and we cannot
1670s	forget those all important mid match
1673s	objective points yeah mid-match
1674s	objectives obviously been recently
1676s	introduced to the game they already had
1677s	a new Dynam Dynamic to the game of
1678s	course we have the forecast Towers worth
1680s	three points and of course the rift
1682s	Island worth 15 points there Abol huge
1684s	sum a lot of players will actually sort
1686s	of dictate their play style around those
1688s	mid-match objectives particularly with
1689s	that Island we see teams going for that
1691s	and making it almost their gameplay
1693s	personality going for that Island every
1694s	single game and even the drop spot
1696s	choice for the forecast towers for some
1697s	teams that's absolutely vital yeah and
1699s	it's not just the points they're going
1701s	for the forecast Tower gives you
1703s	forecast it is an absolutely incredible
1705s	thing to have in the game knowing where
1707s	every Zone is going to be getting those
1709s	early rotations putting yourself in a
1711s	high Advantage position and grabbing
1713s	those storm surge tags I can't wait to
1715s	see how these teams utilize it I cannot
1718s	wait you guys have got me hype now of
1719s	course we're talking about what this
1720s	looks like these offs spawn fights well
1723s	let's hear from the players themselves
1725s	check this
1735s	out being contested just means that at
1738s	the spot you land you have another team
1740s	with you it's kind of like 50 50% chance
1742s	like that you survive you need to be
1744s	lucky get the right guns get in the
1746s	right position if you want to have good
1748s	loot you're going to have to fight for a
1749s	spot often it seem to be a bad thing but
1753s	sometimes it can be good as
1759s	well we're dropping on the racetrack
1762s	currently we're contested by ages in
1763s	Canada I wouldn't say that I'm scared of
1766s	them we have been playing against better
1767s	play or phone then for
1769s	sure we're Landing pinks book so it's
1772s	like in the middle of almost like all
1773s	the good pois and we're contested by E
1775s	and cold we're probably just going to
1777s	try eliminate them as fast as possible
1780s	they're good Fighters but I think that
1781s	me and acorn are just just
1795s	better the main things I look for when
1797s	Landon the POI is how much metal it has
1800s	wood and brick is everywhere around a
1801s	map but if you can get C metal you
1803s	already at an advantage if you don't get
1805s	a gun instant you have a really good
1808s	chance of like getting out of the game
1809s	really quick if you can't get a good
1812s	drop spot it just makes life 10 times
1814s	harder for you it's just one of the most
1815s	important parts of the
1818s	game you're thinking of Landon on us
1820s	good luot we had teams contested they
1823s	got last place they can try
1825s	again if I eliminate Thomas and we go
1828s	six teames in a row I'm 100% winning
1830s	this
1831s	tournament everyone that contests us is
1834s	going to get eliminated they finished
1836s	they're
1838s	finished well this is kind of
1840s	interesting because I've just heard you
1842s	two talking about each other in the
1844s	video that we recorded on media day and
1846s	Thomas you said that you have faced osor
1850s	battles against better players than
1853s	Canada before can you look him in the
1855s	eyes now and just reiterate that
1857s	statement play I mean most EU players
1859s	like in the top level is better than na
1862s	players so I
1865s	mean I mean that's kind of true but like
1867s	you know me like I'm the fncs winner
1869s	just won you know what I'm saying like
1871s	you're going to see today like who's
1872s	really the who's really the goat you
1873s	know what I'm saying and you also said
1875s	Canada that if you win all the Osborne
1878s	battles today you're taking that trophy
1880s	but I thought after watching your major
1882s	three winners interview on fncs that you
1884s	didn't care about winning here I mean
1886s	like being contested like it sucks like
1888s	I was contested like fncs major 2 and
1891s	like you can't really do anything about
1893s	it but like when I heard I was coming to
1895s	Copenhagen like like I'm I'm not going
1897s	to lie I'm here to find a girlfriend you
1898s	know what I'm saying D the Danish girls
1900s	are here they're pretty beautiful so can
1902s	I can I keep your eyes on the prize
1903s	though cuz there is a trophy out there
1905s	you're going to go and have a date with
1906s	it in a moment so you have a think about
1909s	what really matters in life and I'll
1910s	give you a hint it's fortnite and I'm
1911s	going to come back to Thomas cuz I want
1913s	to know why you're so devoted to
1915s	dropping at racetrack I mean I mean
1917s	we've been Landing there the entire year
1919s	so we we wouldn't switch drop like it
1922s	would be dumb we haven't practiced
1923s	anything else so yeah and what's
1925s	happened when other people have tried to
1927s	drop you there I mean it's been ups and
1929s	downs but we're trying to like learn how
1932s	to play the best but yeah you don't want
1935s	to just learn how to play at the best
1937s	though you want to play at the best
1938s	especially if this guy is coming at you
1940s	all aggressive and American like what do
1944s	you think you'll have to do though if if
1945s	the battles don't go your way are you
1947s	going to agree to just split the POI or
1950s	is it just going to always be all out
1951s	aggression it's it's going to be 50/50
1953s	on the slow truck every uh game so I
1956s	mean Canada haven't touched the game for
1957s	four days so I played this morning I
1960s	played this morning for like two three
1961s	hours I'm I'm pretty I'm feeling good my
1962s	finger looking good so I'm looking good
1965s	and and just one more question how long
1966s	did you play this morning uh I didn't
1968s	play this morning but I played like all
1969s	week so yeah he's fresh he's warmed up
1972s	and I'm excited let's head back to the
1975s	desk Canada always the jokes are that he
1978s	is uh this is an offs spawn fight we
1980s	will be seeing happen at the racetrack
1983s	obviously Canada coming off a recent win
1985s	does hold the ax of Champions going up
1987s	against Thomas HD someone who has yet to
1989s	get a win what can we expect from this
1992s	head-to-head fight this head to head is
1993s	going to be very very exciting I mean
1995s	we've seen malib and Thomas HD they're
1997s	actually contested in major 2 um by TC
1999s	and putri and they actually still
2001s	managed to get a third place they were
2002s	kind of half s splitting the POI at that
2004s	stage so I think they might sort of do
2005s	the same maybe if it's on day but day
2008s	one they still have tomorrow to go I
2010s	think it's going to be all out 50/50 as
2011s	they mentioned they've got to go for it
2013s	yeah and it's a little bit of a
2014s	different story for Canada and aers who
2016s	when they were contested in major 2 got
2017s	12th Place and then when they were
2018s	unconned of course in major 3 they
2020s	walked away with their first fncs win
2024s	and a lot of that was due to their loot
2026s	pathing being able to quickly loot up
2028s	the entire RAC trck and then be able to
2030s	rotate quickly for an early Tower to get
2032s	those search tags but I think there's a
2035s	possibility to split race track there's
2038s	great metal and brick it's splitable by
2040s	the west and Eastern side you have the
2042s	slurp truck on the west side and then
2044s	you have that forecast Tower towards the
2046s	Eastern side so I mean they just said
2048s	it's a 50/50 I do think that once one of
2051s	them sees how rough it's going to be for
2052s	them on the drop that they might try and
2054s	split it I mean I spoke to maluki
2056s	yesterday I had a little talk with him I
2058s	was like mate how you feeling about
2059s	tomorrow he said it's Duos anything can
2062s	happen we don't know what's going to go
2063s	down and I'm sure for a lot of fans in
2065s	here for a lot of fans are all over
2067s	Denmark they'll be see they'll be
2068s	feeling like this is Thomas's Destiny
2070s	right hasn't won an fncs yet and what
2072s	better place what better time to do it
2074s	than now and Thomas just is regarded as
2077s	one of the best mechanical players in
2079s	the world teamed up with maluko who's
2082s	regarded as one of just the best players
2084s	in the world I cannot wait to see this
2087s	Duo go up against Canada and aers let's
2089s	keep this conversation going we have to
2090s	talk about more Duos Relentless Retreat
2093s	C Gamer up against King yes it's that
2096s	King top five of the World Cup King
2098s	probably br's best player or regarded
2101s	the best player that King yeah 100% I
2104s	mean this is Relentless Retreat anything
2106s	can go down Kelly this is where it all
2108s	happens we've seen different play Styles
2109s	in these guys throughout this season uh
2111s	of course Cal gamer seemingly get it
2113s	getting it unconned in Middle East
2114s	everyone in Middle East is just feeling
2115s	like you know what yeah let's just let
2117s	him have it he's the king of this area
2118s	but King himself has been actually
2120s	contested by another Duo throughout all
2121s	the cash cups and they don't seem to be
2123s	fighting they seem to just sort of be
2124s	splitting the POI a little bit so I'm
2126s	interested to see how this Dynamic Works
2128s	between them both I like that you're
2129s	talking about the dynamic differences
2131s	that we see because this the both of
2132s	these Duos here also have a lot of
2134s	similarities both of them back-to-back
2136s	champions in major 2 and major three for
2139s	their respective regions but I love that
2141s	you talk about Cy gamer and how
2143s	respected he is because he might be one
2145s	of the most studious players that we
2147s	have ever seen in fortnite comparable to
2151s	players from just any region from around
2153s	the world and again Relentless Retreat
2157s	is it's a splitable POI but what I'm
2159s	interested in seeing is that it takes
2161s	about a minute to be able to get down
2163s	into the Vault for those Mythic po wi in
2166s	whichever team is able to get down there
2168s	first is probably going to have the
2170s	upper hand and I'm really glad you
2171s	mentioned that cuz I was actually
2172s	speaking to King yes I got to speak with
2173s	old players you know we all get on but
2175s	yeah me and King we were speaking out
2176s	we're actually watching them scrim and
2178s	they're actually trying to practice the
2179s	quickest route to that Mythic Vault it
2182s	shows how much they're going to
2183s	prioritize that they're making sure they
2185s	get there as quickly as possible because
2186s	the loot that's in there it's absolutely
2187s	valuable well you've heard our thoughts
2189s	on it but why don't we head on over to
2191s	Frankie who once again has a head tohe
2193s	head for us take a look thank you yes I
2196s	have been very fortunate to be joined by
2199s	Cal gamer who is the king of the Middle
2202s	Eastern region but also King himself one
2205s	of our Argentine players who's
2207s	representing Brazil and both of these
2209s	players have won two majors alone this
2212s	year we're also joined by Daniela our
2214s	fabulous translator So Cal game I'd love
2216s	to speak to you first I know that you
2219s	are someone who researches your
2221s	opponents have you watched any of King's
2224s	matches and do you have any opinions on
2226s	how he plays uh I haven't watched him
2228s	that much but I watched a little bit and
2230s	I realized how he plays and he's not
2232s	very good so that's why I'm there and
2236s	why would you say you're a better player
2237s	than King I mean it's just the facts you
2242s	know he's just not that good are you
2244s	going to put your money where your mouth
2246s	is later though because you are dropping
2248s	at the same spot as him on Relentless
2249s	Retreat yes uh I don't really want to
2252s	talk too much I mean after a few hours
2253s	we want to play and see what happens sh
2256s	Clan okay well I'll go and talk to King
2258s	then while you you get your thoughts in
2260s	order and we'll come over to Daniela as
2262s	well King you are arguably the greatest
2267s	player in the Brazilian region right now
2270s	tell me why Relentless Retreat though is
2272s	a spot that you're going to win when you
2274s	drop on it against calgamer later
2299s	we don't have like a meod that we going
2302s	to do but uh we going to attack from the
2305s	right side and uh we hope we're going to
2308s	win and we will do because we are the
2311s	best yeah K gamer has given his opinion
2315s	on you but what's your opinion on C
2318s	Gamer have you seen him
2336s	play
2337s	we are waiting for them we see them
2340s	playing and they're not so good like
2342s	they thought and we uh we I'm sorry
2346s	there it's Argentinian so we talk too
2349s	too fast so he he will fight uh until
2353s	the end I'm really looking forward to
2355s	the fight hopefully the end will be in
2357s	the aim game for both of these players
2359s	rather than at the Relentless Retreat
2362s	thank you so much gas Mel gas and
2365s	shakran thank you so much for talking to
2366s	me calgamer we will see what happens
2369s	between these two and their J Partners
2371s	when they drop on Relentless retreat in
2374s	just a few short
2377s	moments uh so they can't both be bad
2381s	they just have no respect for each other
2382s	do they no no mate you're don't have
2385s	he's bad he's bad we're both bad uh of
2388s	course just some friendly trash talk
2390s	right as we prepare for Global
2392s	Championship that's kind of I guess
2394s	they're both in High Spirits that's kind
2395s	of where you want to be right I think
2397s	get each other's head aren't they really
2398s	that's all it is yeah
2400s	sure like I don't want to you know what
2402s	that's fine just that'll do uh guys we
2405s	actually have something very special
2406s	lined up and we have a remote interview
2409s	with the man the myth the legend himself
2411s	my oldest friend in the world Cipher BK
2414s	Cypher I don't know if you can hear it
2415s	but the crowd is going absolutely ham
2417s	right now how you doing man y I'm doing
2420s	great I'm glad to be here for the fncs
2422s	global Championship even though it's
2424s	remote I'm excited to watch a ton of
2426s	fortnite this week and and I am
2428s	personally rooting for Clicks in Epic
2430s	whale I want to see clicks get his first
2431s	fncs championship that is amazing dude
2434s	how has it been like obviously you've
2436s	been watching right we've seen all of
2437s	these Duos just kind of grow and evolve
2440s	over the year what are your expectations
2442s	for the
2443s	competition I mean I want to see a
2445s	repeat of what happened at the
2447s	Invitational just like a super intense
2450s	like first and second going head-to-head
2452s	in the last match I think we're going to
2454s	see something we're going to see some
2456s	early drop fights and whatnot but uh
2458s	yeah I was there at the Invitational it
2460s	was just electric and I'm hoping we see
2462s	that again here in Copenhagen how crazy
2464s	was it back in Invitational right kind
2466s	of the the first time we've had a land
2468s	like that and now we're back but the
2470s	stakes feel so much higher you talked to
2473s	a bunch of players what were they kind
2474s	of feeling at that
2476s	time I mean everyone is always a little
2479s	nervous before the tournament but I
2481s	think once they're in the battle bus
2482s	like it's game time and the stakes are
2485s	really high I mean what this is like the
2486s	biggest prize B prize po since World Cup
2489s	correct me if I'm wrong like $1 million
2491s	for the first place Duo that's that's a
2493s	life-changing amount of money so I think
2495s	uh it's just it's going to be intense
2497s	it's going to be insane yeah absolutely
2499s	I mean Cypher for those of you or them
2501s	out there that don't know who you are

2587s	gotten our thoughts why don't we get the
2589s	thoughts of our casters as we draw ever
2591s	closer to the competition yeah I must
2593s	say especially after watching the
2596s	head-to-head interviews there that I'm
2598s	feeling so so good and I'm looking
2601s	forward to of course the competition of
2603s	the contention that we're going to see
2604s	on the drops and what I love the most
2606s	too is that it's one thing to know your
2608s	drop spot but for all of these
2610s	representative regions you have to keep
2612s	in mind it's the international
2614s	competition it's the global Championship
2615s	so just knowing your drop isn't good
2617s	enough because every region is going to
2619s	have their own sort of flare for the
2621s	competitive meta and it's going to be a
2623s	really interesting Dynamic to see how
2625s	some of these players choose to break
2626s	into it because even at the Invitational
2628s	where we last saw some International
2630s	competition one thing where I think some
2632s	of the other regions in general might
2633s	have struggled with was the searge
2635s	strategy so I want to see how well
2636s	that's been wrapped up to be brought
2638s	here today well we know a couple teams
2639s	aren't going to have any surge issues
2641s	it's those that of course are competing
2643s	against one another especially Canada
2646s	let's just back up here and really touch
2649s	base about the the problems that he's
2650s	going to face right now Canada and aers
2652s	are surely and like you know two of Na's
2655s	best right and they have a difficult
2658s	task in front of them Thomas HD maluka
2661s	right he was really honing in on the
2662s	fact that he has been playing all
2664s	weekend long and he feels like canot
2666s	Focus isn't quite there is that going to
2669s	be the default in his play that that's
2671s	the false sense of security that Canada
2673s	is trying to implement into Thomas's
2674s	brain right there because at the end of
2676s	the day Canada is a competitor I mean he
2679s	is one of the few players that we have
2681s	here that's actually got some of the
2683s	most fncs appearances well you know what
2685s	we've had a long rooll to get here and
2688s	all of a sudden we are closing in on it
2690s	so let's go ahead and dim the
2695s	lights fortnite
2698s	fam a yearlong competition has led us
2703s	here to
2704s	kopenhagen these players have fought
2706s	through the fncs gauntlet three fncs
2710s	majors and a last chance major all to
2713s	battle it out here on this stage these
2718s	players have put everything into this
2721s	competition six regions all going
2724s	head-to-head to prove who's the best but
2728s	it's about so much more than just that
2732s	it's about holding the acts of Champions
2735s	high it's about hoisting a championship
2739s	trophy banking their share of 4 million
2743s	but above all else it's about a title
2746s	that comes with the highest Prestige
2749s	effan yes Global
2752s	Champions after this weekend one duo
2755s	will break through through and stand
2758s	undeniably above the
2761s	rest so get ready this is the fncs
2766s	global
2769s	[Applause]
2779s	[Music]
2780s	[Applause]
2785s	championship
2786s	[Music]
2797s	[Applause]
2808s	[Applause]
2821s	[Applause]
2835s	[Applause]
2841s	[Applause]
2865s	[Applause]
2880s	the stage is ready the trophy is here
2885s	but you can't Crown a champion if there
2888s	are no
2890s	contenders Copenhagen Royal Arena are
2892s	you ready to meet the
2893s	[Music]
2895s	Players let's bring them
2905s	on
2909s	[Applause]
2913s	they're going to come to the stage right
2915s	now and of course most importantly is
2917s	the battle that they had to fight
2919s	through to be here bullying their way
2922s	through the Shockwave Hammer meta one of
2924s	the most destructive Seasons they have
2926s	to brace for chaos as these players now
2929s	step into the most chaotic environment
2931s	they have faced all year long and with
2935s	19 96 total finals appearances spread
2938s	amongst all of them they are here to
2941s	show exactly why they're the forerunners
2944s	of their respective regions and you
2945s	think about it they had the first
2947s	chances the first opportunities put in
2949s	front of them and they did just that
2952s	they secured it and here they
2954s	[Applause]
2959s	are let's go Copenhagen y'all went
2963s	absolutely crazy for the players that is
2965s	what we are here for we don't have this
2967s	competition without them so y'all
2969s	definitely feel free to lose it when you
2971s	guys see them come out on the stage my
2973s	gosh that is just the qualifiers from
2975s	major number one there's so many big
2977s	names Thomas HD though
2980s	maluka that's We Have Eyes on yeah well
2983s	I mean I had a massive cheer yeah and
2986s	we're hearing it right
2988s	now I wonder I wonder why I wonder who
2990s	they're cheering for is it Thomas HD
2993s	yeah I think actually I think it might
2994s	well be because he is the the Danish man
2997s	himself what a perfect player when you
3000s	think about all of his attributes so
3002s	smart his aim is next level and of
3004s	course pair that with maluka this is a
3006s	dangerous Duo only bad thing contested
3009s	today but they have so much skill in
3011s	this Duo that they should be able to
3012s	overcome the problem we've seen
3014s	sometimes being contested can be a
3016s	little bit beneficial and we saw them
3018s	have an incredible performance in major
3020s	one getting second place and only losing
3022s	by just a single point they are the best
3026s	team to have never won an fncs but I
3028s	think that they may be changing that
3030s	this weekend that would be so crazy
3033s	right no fncs title but a global
3035s	championship title that would be next
3038s	level we talked about EU how about we
3040s	gone over gone over to na Acorn and cold
3043s	I feel like so many players and fans
3046s	alike talked about this duel when they
3047s	won saying this is probably one of the
3050s	best Duos in na period yeah there was a
3052s	lot of hype around this Duo when they
3054s	performed in major number one of course
3055s	of course coming out with a great
3057s	performance you I like this year you saw
3059s	combin a really really big brain igl in
3061s	acorn and arguably one of the best
3063s	fraggers in na in cold this kid is crazy
3066s	and I'm expecting to bring that Dynamic
3068s	you can see them on the screen right now
3069s	they're looking happy they're looking
3070s	excited and they should be cuz they're a
3071s	top team and we saw what cold can do on
3074s	a land setting at the Invitational
3076s	getting a third place finish with his
3078s	recent or his old Duo mate scented and I
3082s	mean their placements outside of major 1
3084s	was six in both m major 2 and major 3 so
3087s	even when they're doing their worst it
3090s	is still so vastly better than most of
3092s	the
3093s	competition now of course that was a
3095s	look at just the qualified players for
3097s	major number one we have two more to go
3100s	so please give a warm welcome for your
3102s	qualified players from major number
3106s	two the kinetic blade was the season it
3109s	was also the problem that they had to
3112s	learn how to overcome learn how to make
3114s	theirs and perform form to the best of
3116s	their capabilities because my oh my what
3119s	a destructive time it was they really
3121s	had to slice their way through the
3122s	competition to qualify for globals but
3125s	more impressive still is the sheer
3127s	amount of experience that this
3129s	particular group of contenders carries
3131s	with them considering 18 out of 24 of
3134s	them have played on a land stage here
3137s	before can you imagine having that
3139s	experience bundling it all up and then
3141s	putting it out right here in front of
3143s	you where there is your chance to make
3146s	the bulk of $4
3148s	million we know who you're looking at I
3151s	know who I'm looking at but most
3152s	importantly can they step up can they
3155s	perform here now as the times and
3157s	options are limited there's only five
3163s	games I mean if that was it right if
3166s	that was just the the let's go
3167s	everyone's here let's hit play I believe
3170s	that's a grand finals Lobby there's
3171s	still more seats to be filled but as we
3173s	focus in on the qualifiers from MJ
3174s	number two quezy Veno this Stadium went
3179s	crazy when they walked by that trophy
3183s	some would say these are the villains of
3185s	this Arc right these are the guys that
3187s	went up against SEI and Camy and fell
3189s	short now they want to come back they
3192s	want to come back even stronger than a
3194s	year ago yeah definitely the one of the
3197s	best teams in EU I think that's without
3199s	doubt number one number two number three
3201s	one of those three because these guys
3203s	are absolutely incredible we saw in
3204s	major number two 12 game Grand finals
3207s	six Victory Royals I don't understand
3210s	how that's even possible uh and then
3212s	arguably the biggest upset when came
3214s	when of course they didn't qualify to
3216s	Major 3 Grand finals how does that
3218s	affect their mentality going to this is
3220s	this now a bit of a Redemption for them
3222s	not winning an Invitational not making
3224s	major three grand finals what a better
3226s	time to do it listen the whole added you
3229s	know uh fool me once shame on me fool me
3231s	twice or shame on you or whatever maybe
3233s	something like that they they changed
3235s	their drop spot at the Invitational and
3237s	it potentially cost them that first
3239s	place spot and then in major 3 they
3241s	changed their drop spot again and didn't
3242s	even call so I think that they're going
3245s	to be sticking to their guns and going
3247s	kutsu Crossing and potentially going to
3250s	be coming out on top and day one there
3253s	are so many big names we have to
3255s	continue the conversation Meo and Cooper
3259s	now kind of focusing in on na Miro just
3262s	ridiculously decorated yeah a really
3265s	really great player in the na region won
3267s	so many fncs titles paired up with a
3269s	less experienced player and this is a
3271s	really nice story line because you have
3272s	the experien of Meo he's actually not
3275s	Elling this year it's usually Cooper
3276s	that takes that role and he's actually
3278s	saying you know what I'll take the range
3279s	I'll use your experience when it comes
3281s	to frag cuz Meo is just one of the best
3283s	in the world at that and of course he
3284s	can lead the way lead the tops and make
3286s	sure they make their way to end game
3287s	this is one of those Duos that I'm
3289s	really really excited to see how they
3290s	perform On LAN because both of them are
3292s	very very talented but together we're
3294s	yet to see them in this stage no but we
3296s	did see them perform incredibly well in
3297s	major 2 getting a second place finish
3299s	and I think Rumble ruins is a great POI
3301s	for them being in the center being able
3303s	to handle rotations which seems to be a
3304s	little bit of an issue for them in
3306s	earlier Seasons so I'm excited to see
3308s	Miro obviously as you were saying an
3310s	incredible player a five time fncs champ
3313s	however most of those wins were with his
3315s	old Duo Matea absolutely well we have
3319s	one group of players left so Arena
3323s	welcome them this is your qualified
3324s	players from major number
3328s	three and as we all know fortnite is
3331s	ever changing and evolving season to
3334s	season you never really know what you
3336s	are going to get but guess what this
3337s	team these players had to go against the
3340s	zero Mobility when it was arguably so so
3344s	difficult and what they might have
3345s	lacked in Mobility they certainly made
3347s	up for as far as adaptability is
3350s	concerned because having gone through
3352s	every single iteration of competitive
3355s	Seasons competitive metas to find
3358s	themselves here at the global stage that
3360s	is the embodiment of mental fortitude
3363s	and really and truly it's one of the
3364s	hardest things to do is when it's your
3367s	last chances when it's your last
3368s	opportunities to punch your way straight
3371s	through to the biggest opportunity of
3373s	your career and it's time to put up
3375s	those numbers can you do it surely all
3378s	of our major three qualifiers had to
3381s	play with that pressure they had to play
3383s	with that knowingly you know a a looming
3386s	pressure of hey I can only do this one
3389s	more time and again considering what's
3392s	at stake considering that they want to
3395s	go straight in to that finals Lobby here
3398s	on Sunday this is their moment to Siege
3401s	it all that's right there are no more
3403s	chances up for for grabs here other than
3405s	the five that's put in front of them you
3407s	want to do it here and now will you be
3410s	one of the first top 25 Duos to punch
3412s	through to Sunday we'll find out
3418s	I know I know you felt that these are
3423s	incredible players This Is 50 of the
3426s	very best the upper bracket all facing
3430s	off today you can feel it the atmosphere
3433s	is electric it's not just this amazing
3435s	crowd it is every single one of these
3437s	players they all know what they have to
3439s	do top 25 by the end of the day yeah
3442s	this is it this is our lobby I mean we
3444s	haven't spoken about yeah in depth how
3446s	can we not booger the man himself what a
3450s	player of course the World Cup winner
3452s	how many times have we said World Cup
3453s	winner to it does anyone need to be
3454s	reminded at this stage World Cup winner
3456s	no no no not really never I mean Booga
3459s	in threats I love this Duo herea
3461s	obviously having the history and the
3463s	knowledge with threats having just some
3465s	of the most insane aim in the game
3469s	having these two powerhouses together
3471s	definitely excites me and what excites
3474s	me even more is that they're Landing
3475s	sanguine sweet one of the new pois where
3478s	they're going to have those two Mythic
3479s	podiums and it has absolutely insane
3482s	amount of chests ammo and loot so even
3485s	though they're going to be contested by
3487s	nutty I don't think that's going to be
3489s	too much of a concern for them yeah and
3490s	I was speaking the threats yesterday I
3492s	was saying how you going to approach
3492s	that osor he said mate there's so much
3494s	loot at this drop spot we're not too
3496s	concerned about fighting each other
3497s	Osborn but we want that Vault they're
3499s	going to be going for that Vault every
3501s	single game so we'll see how it goes for
3502s	them so insane more Duos talk about yzo
3507s	and Rise Front Runners from na a Duo
3510s	that all of us just feel and expect such
3513s	greatness from them now the question
3515s	becomes how do they perform on land yeah
3518s	the Canadian GE here a lot of people had
3521s	a lot of expectations for them going
3522s	into major 3 DA's the best team in na at
3526s	that time didn't quite live up to that
3527s	first place but still managed to get a
3529s	third place overall lots and lots of
3531s	hype around this team we haven't seen
3532s	them perform on land yet so this is
3534s	going to be a very very big test for
3535s	them will they live up to that height
3537s	will the weight lay on their shoulders a
3539s	little bit and maybe put a little bit
3540s	too much pressure on them I'm not sure
3542s	but either way they have the talent I
3543s	mean you're talking about third place in
3545s	major 3 but I don't think that paints
3547s	the full picture because in major 1 they
3549s	also got a third place and major two
3551s	their worst performance was fourth they
3554s	have the best placement between all
3556s	three Majors than anyone else here and
3560s	they're going to be landing in the gas
3562s	station which is a great split POI so I
3565s	think they might be the kings of Na for
3568s	today what about the kings of oce could
3571s	that be worthy and Alex I had an
3574s	opportunity to meet worthy such a just a
3576s	sweet guy but Alex is pretty widely
3579s	regarded as the best player in oce yeah
3582s	100% such a recognizable character in
3584s	the oce scene as well and these guys
3586s	definitely pack a punch as a duo in
3589s	major 3 Grand finals Alex on his own had
3592s	more eliminations than 33 three teams
3596s	had eliminations so him the solo is
3598s	outperforming some Duos which is
3600s	absolutely insane a big thanks to coach
3601s	Timmy for that stat because that is just
3603s	showing how good these guys can be when
3606s	they're on this big stage when they're
3607s	in those grand finals they do not
3608s	crumble under pressure well I mean I
3610s	think that incredible power is is
3612s	showcasing also in Majors 1 and two he
3615s	placed Fifth and Third but just him
3617s	because this Duo formed in major three
3621s	they might be actually the newest Duo
3623s	that we're going to be seeing compete
3625s	here today and they're going to be
3627s	landing near that creaky compound where
3629s	there are so many teams Landing there
3632s	it's going to be interesting to say the
3634s	least to say the least indeed now of
3636s	course we only have five games here
3638s	today pressure is on with less games you
3641s	cannot make a mistake how much does even
3645s	just this going down to five games
3647s	change everything I mean it changes
3649s	everything particularly if you are
3650s	contested if you lose off spawn that's a
3652s	fifth of your games gone where
3653s	previously it was a little bit less than
3655s	so you have to make the games count that
3657s	you are contested off we talked about
3658s	malib and Thomas HD versus ages and
3660s	Canard earlier if those guys don't have
3662s	a good game when they make it off spawn
3664s	there's no guarantees that you'll make
3666s	the next one off spawn so you have to
3667s	make it count and we always talk about
3669s	you know maybe they're day one team a
3670s	day two team oh they're going to have an
3672s	opportunity after day one to VA review
3674s	and look they're not going to have that
3675s	opportunity essentially these are like
3677s	three separate tournaments each day so
3680s	these teams are going to have to do
3681s	everything they can that day to get in
3683s	that top 25 spot yeah I think when I
3685s	think about more of these Duos that
3686s	we're going to see right ton and merach
3688s	another Duo that kind of just jumps to
3689s	the front of my mind T I mean if you
3692s	asked any EU player you just said the
3695s	name t they'd be like yep I'm scared I'm
3697s	good leave me alone but also now paired
3700s	up with mer stash where are these guys
3702s	Landing what can we expect from them I
3704s	mean ton why they regarded as the goat
3706s	of fortnite mhm however there a big
3709s	however okay he's yet to do it on land
3712s	he's yet to do it on this massive stage
3715s	so a lot of people would say he's the
3716s	online goat which I agree with 100% he's
3719s	won so many fncs across different game
3721s	different chapters whatever the meta he
3723s	is on top but what a perfect time what a
3725s	perfect storyline for T and merach to
3728s	finally do it to finally Crown t as an
3731s	on as an in-person winner not just
3732s	online yeah and we're talking about ton
3734s	but merach is also an incredible player
3736s	in his own right but there is a thing
3739s	such as tournament Jitters and ton
3741s	definitely seems to have an issue with
3743s	that being in front of all of these
3745s	people thousands of people on stage is a
3749s	little bit different than playing at
3751s	home in front of your own setup and
3752s	everything but I think with the right
3754s	preparation they've had a lot of
3755s	opportunity to practice leading up into
3757s	this then maybe he can finally be the
3760s	land goat we know he can be but how much
3762s	of that you you kind of talk about being
3764s	here in front of the crowd even that one
3765s	mistake how much could that affect those
3767s	mentals right Kelly because it's easy to
3770s	say at home I made a mistake I'm out
3772s	okay let me just get up walk around
3773s	whatever this is so very very different
3776s	I think it depends on the players in the
3777s	team when you have someone like Canada
3780s	which if you guys haven't had the
3781s	opportunity to watch the major 3
3783s	playback of him where essentially the
3785s	entire time he's just screaming agers
3788s	agers I I think having mentality like
3790s	that even when you're down is such a big
3792s	deal and you'll hear a lot of these
3793s	players what's a big part of your
3795s	success in winning this major that major
3798s	and a lot of them will say keeping their
3799s	head in the game even when going down
3801s	just talking about what went wrong and
3803s	moving on from it instead of dwelling on
3805s	it it's so different it's so different
3807s	being in this environment you you're a
3808s	different desk everything's a little bit
3810s	different a chair potentially is a
3811s	little bit different as well so
3812s	everything is almost alien to you from
3815s	what you're used to you can't just get
3816s	up after a bad game go have a cup of tea
3818s	and relax in the living room you have to
3820s	stay in this area and that's what can
3822s	add to the pressure as well you're in
3823s	this area you're in this Zone it's now
3825s	or never and they do it I wanted to ask
3828s	a question here so obviously the the
3830s	bottom 25 move on to tomorrow okay so if
3833s	you're one of these Duos if find
3834s	yourself in the bottom 25 let's say
3836s	they've revealed some kind of strategy
3839s	is that good is that bad going into
3841s	lower bracket is there some kind of
3842s	advantage or disadvantage to doing so as
3844s	I said earlier I don't think you should
3846s	be aiming or hoping that you get in the
3847s	B the lower bracket it's not something
3849s	that you want you want to be getting
3850s	into the grand finals today now but if
3853s	you do end up finding yourself in there
3854s	things could definitely change I think
3855s	tonight's going to be a very important
3857s	night for these teams that are going to
3858s	find themselves in that lower bracket
3860s	cuz there will be 25 and I think that's
3862s	going to play a big part cuz then
3864s	they'll start to figure out where are we
3865s	going to be dropping where's our loot
3866s	path going to go we don't
3869s	know I'm getting
3871s	word it's time now as we prepare for
3875s	this first game you guys find your seats
3877s	on the battle bus I want to hear from
3879s	our Caster to prep us before game number
3883s	one thank you so very much Zeke and yeah
3885s	find your seat on the battle bus find
3887s	your seat in the arena here because we
3889s	are looking at a very contentious drop
3893s	map I know we focused in on a couple of
3894s	those you know head-to-head face offs
3896s	but there are so many more battles
3898s	happening today I think one perfect
3900s	example we were just discussing was the
3902s	whole vco pink but hold that thought
3905s	because the battle bus has gone off and
3907s	we're ready to roll into game
3917s	one the fncs global championship game
3921s	number one starts right now W there is
3925s	the bus now we get to jump off and
3928s	really take to the world and see who
3929s	will be able to put up all of the
3932s	numbers that they are claiming that they
3934s	are worth let's watch it we get to start
3936s	things off here of course with King and
3940s	Cammer and keep in mind we heard a
3944s	little bit in the pregame interviews
3947s	King Cal gamer neither side particularly
3951s	scared of the other both playing best
3953s	but Thomas he's taking the the 50/50
3955s	it's Canada though who's going to find
3957s	the first down but it's a trade it's a
3960s	trade on both sides AIS is down as well
3963s	Canada will have to do a big convert
3965s	here or go head-to-head Toe to Toe with
3967s	maluka malaba just has a singular build
3970s	he goes for the open exchange and now
3972s	Canada is going for the push things are
3974s	going to slow down he's going to come
3976s	down to everything he gets the first
3977s	tags can he get the follow up here
3979s	Rush's on one more tag no Canada fall
3983s	maluka comes out of top Malo with the
3985s	twin mag but I don't think the pressure
3987s	stopped just yet he's taking a moment
3990s	here and that is massive the reboot B
3994s	providing just enough coverage away from
3997s	those pistol shots out of Canada and the
4000s	first 50/50 will go eu's way and you can
4004s	see that is the simple tactics coming
4007s	into play a little bit of High Ground
4009s	all of a sudden The Leverage was thrown
4012s	onto the other side but here we have
4013s	nutty and capser who are contesting
4014s	Booga and threats here at the sanguin
4016s	suite this is a very tough battle to
4019s	have to go against as well because they
4021s	too are going for a landing 50/50
4025s	depending on of course what you pick up
4026s	here but so far it does seem likea has
4029s	to play a little bit slow I do not see
4031s	his Duo
4033s	inside threats seemingly already
4035s	eliminated here so buo will be forced to
4039s	try and choose the proper moment to
4041s	engage just going to stay crouched for
4043s	the time being though again keep in mind
4045s	the amount of buils he actually has to
4047s	work with that infiltrator pump might be
4049s	able to buy him a little bit of time as
4051s	well but seems as though bua is
4052s	investing fully into Weaponry here
4056s	understanding he can't take that extra
4058s	second of reload he doesn't have a
4059s	teammate to fall back on just in case
4061s	and as for nutty y abser they seem to be
4063s	just taking their time actually
4065s	prioritizing some of the loot inside of
4067s	singland well as one Duo Falls another
4070s	one Rises up to the occasion here we
4072s	have yonzo and Rise looking pretty Sol
4075s	getting their drops and their rout
4077s	together so far so good speaking about
4080s	other things happening though I did see
4082s	Baka who is also contested up towards
4084s	the northern portion of the map get an
4086s	exchange off there too and here we get
4089s	to take a look in with quezy and voo
4092s	down at the kenjitsu
4093s	Crossing yeah way outside of the map and
4097s	the real Curious question to ask here is
4100s	how well exactly they're going to be
4102s	able to manage some of the early surge
4105s	because being this far south at kinjutsu
4107s	it's not exactly the easiest in terms of
4109s	elevation having to deal with some of
4111s	those other teams surrounding you maybe
4114s	expect that quezy might look to wait for
4118s	Veno to continue scouting a little bit
4120s	further in maybe towards the bridge we
4122s	might see them looking to implement a
4125s	little bit of search strategy and sloppy
4127s	Shores Tason he's having to eat some
4129s	damage as is but has plenty of Shield to
4132s	work back with oh yeah we we all know
4134s	that this here is definitely a very
4137s	popular exchange teams will often fight
4139s	it out as Slappy Shore is one of the
4141s	major pois that will just yield so much
4144s	additional heals of course that you can
4146s	continue to play off of and bounce back
4148s	from meanwhile merach down low
4150s	continuing to get his material together
4153s	we're going to jump on over to datus and
4155s	stain here looking pretty solid over at
4158s	the frenzy field just north of this we
4160s	also know that Acorn and cold were
4162s	equally contested somewhere near their
4164s	drop and look they've wiped the team and
4167s	they're up towards the top right now
4169s	also have to keep in mind though dat and
4170s	stay guesss who they near at freny I
4172s	mean that's bound to be SEI and cammy's
4174s	turf that's where SEI and Cammy have
4176s	been establishing themselves the entire
4179s	year just about so curious to see
4183s	whether or not those two will Clash it
4184s	seems as though seti has already been
4187s	eliminated and that's true the fact that
4188s	s and datas were able to take care of
4190s	them this early on is huge yep big
4193s	trades Happening Here now we see Yuma
4195s	getting tags in the distance too surge
4196s	of course is going to be one of the
4198s	equally most important things to worry
4199s	about meanwhile in the feed Acorn has
4202s	found himself an elimination too these
4204s	are all of the contested battles
4207s	Happening Here the drop map standing
4210s	true exactly as we expected teams that
4212s	were uh aware of teams that were going
4215s	to land on them are definitely fighting
4217s	for it and you can imagine the the
4219s	confidence boost the the momentum that
4222s	some of these teams engaging in those 50
4224s	50s are B to be looking for and the best
4226s	part about it is getting those
4227s	eliminations so early on leaves you
4229s	plenty of room to actually continue
4232s	working on their pre-planned loot
4234s	pathing not having to really worry about
4237s	interference towards some of those
4239s	rotations can make a big difference in
4241s	positioning later on we talk about Acorn
4243s	and cold take a look here as they're
4244s	moving out they picked up their
4246s	elimination they're trying to see if
4247s	they can single out the solo remaining
4250s	but nothing just yet so not really
4252s	getting greedy with with the opportunity
4254s	put in front of them but instead banking
4257s	that elimination remember there's just
4258s	five games right only five games you pop
4261s	off in game number one and all of a
4262s	sudden you're really set up for a
4266s	potential just seal top 25 for today
4269s	right the goal is get to Grand finals I
4271s	mean just think about the amount of
4272s	sheer splashes that Acorn just had
4275s	available for himself 12 SL splashes to
4277s	work with is a huge amount they can
4280s	definitely take their time in terms of
4283s	finding those I build movements in case
4285s	I need a little bit of that slap effect
4286s	to work with thoric
4289s	meanwhile continuing to seek out a chest
4292s	that might be left over splitting there
4294s	with
4295s	bolts seems to
4297s	have an idea of maybe looking over
4300s	towards one of these forecast Towers
4302s	maybe also keeping an eye out for that
4304s	Ruben van in the distance as well for
4306s	anybody that gets some ideas early on
4309s	forecast Tower is definitely extremely
4310s	powerful it's going to be one of the
4312s	best pickups you can can play for in the
4315s	distance though Sun's also not making it
4317s	easy for anyone rotating Through The
4318s	Valleys here now we have fast stroi and
4320s	Kylie down at the Western southernmost
4323s	area of the map here split up from his
4325s	teammate looking to hold out a potential
4327s	King maybe rotating down at the bottom
4330s	it could be cow gamer there but no it is
4332s	King and
4333s	Duo and they have danger nearby they've
4337s	already exchange between the two you can
4339s	see the passive standoff here but these
4340s	are fights that are so important these
4342s	are fights that you need to
4344s	at the very least entertain for
4346s	now as far as Kylie is concerned as well
4349s	a little bit of Leverage there over King
4351s	with some of that height but seems as
4353s	though King has spotted out that Kylie
4355s	is just a little bit cross the way from
4358s	him but transitioning back over to Pink
4361s	and
4363s	Vico a lot of these players just seeming
4366s	to take their time as long as you have a
4368s	twin mag assault rifle it just doesn't
4370s	really seem as though there's too much
4373s	pressure to activate some search
4375s	strategies early on but pink here really
4378s	sitting on some of the augments that
4382s	he's going to choose to actually
4387s	prioritize hold up looks like we got a
4389s	little bit of a stand up here on the
4390s	rotation on in hero in triple fhd pretty
4394s	tough situation to be in tagged up here
4396s	for us to go ahead and bunker down save
4399s	for a second here it's ritual and re who
4402s	have a bit of a high ground position
4403s	here looking down very nice spot to be
4406s	in meanwhile Gus and Shri also nearby
4408s	getting the pressure of the lobby here
4410s	Richard and re can determine any team
4413s	that they want to put the pressure on
4414s	and others are going to look inward see
4416s	if they can jump in on it barely hanging
4419s	on right now just inside the edge of
4421s	this Zone and the way that it's breaking
4424s	out for them just does not seem to be
4426s	all that favorable just like for snazy
4428s	and Pai under quite a bit of pressure
4430s	here snaz is going to have to take some
4432s	time now to actually try regen some of
4435s	that white HP some of that Shield as
4437s	well not sure if he even has any Ms to
4440s	work with but Pai he's Scout in the area
4443s	making sure that they're both still
4445s	aware of what exactly is surrounding
4448s	them just outside Rumble
4451s	ruins they working here the community
4454s	rallying for poai here but a very tough
4457s	spot to be in halfway through the
4458s	materials but hold up we get back to the
4459s	fight here Bach and pars already had two
4461s	eliminations and another team is looking
4463s	to influence them a little bit more as
4465s	they were trying to get to the new
4466s	safety this next Zone here just a minute
4469s	left before it starts to move again
4472s	they're in a pretty difficult spot here
4473s	digging deep into the trenches right now
4476s	MK papa is holding it down here but
4480s	again this is a fight that you're
4482s	expending time you're expending some
4484s	resources in build outside of the zone
4486s	for both of these players all these
4489s	teams well I say teams but Papa left as
4492s	a solo defend for himself
4494s	trapped at brutal fashion essentially
4496s	does not seem as though pars and Baka
4500s	want to let papa go time soon MK pop
4502s	already under too much pressure to deal
4504s	with sharp too just enough take him out
4509s	easy elimination in the two versus one
4511s	scenario but again they're all the way
4512s	up brutal they still have to rotate into
4514s	Zone I just want to say pars was putting
4516s	up a front in the back there talking hey
4518s	man you know not too sure about the time
4520s	zones he's acting like he he wasn't
4522s	quite sharp and aware but
4524s	they are leading in eliminations right
4525s	now possibly faking out the competitors
4530s	here today so far so good meanwhile twws
4533s	qdx and rapit already on the move here
4537s	trying to get situated que and Veno quey
4540s	actually hit the sniper shot to open
4541s	this one up alongside Voo Voo really set
4544s	themselves up for Success so surge
4546s	looking well but not good enough to
4549s	really conclude the battle so they're
4550s	just going to move on over but for quezy
4553s	and voo I mean they'd be surely excited
4556s	to see Cam and c not make it I think
4559s	they have to be at this point given that
4561s	they're still in they're still able to
4563s	continue trying to ACR some points on
4567s	leaderboards I know taking his time
4569s	right now with that suppressed sniper
4571s	seeing if he has an opportunity here but
4574s	instead no it's going to be off in the
4575s	distance true cha CAU win of Wheezy and
4578s	Veno on top of this hill and that's not
4580s	the surprise party that Veno was hoping
4582s	for not forget uh Chucho and TRX were
4585s	definitely under some pressure here
4588s	they're not the sitting the prettiest
4589s	when it comes down to overall material
4591s	but all in all they do have the great
4594s	positioning here on the top of this
4595s	mountain yep que is going to go and get
4597s	on out of there picking up augments now
4598s	as well really trying to uh round out
4600s	his Advantage where possible they're
4604s	just going to have to rotate to Greener
4607s	pasts giving quezy load out as well that
4610s	first assault definitely going to come
4611s	in handy when you've got a gold twin mag
4615s	bonus damage always a plus on that first
4617s	shot and the same thing as well for the
4618s	first shotgun augment that he had Rock
4620s	in there with that gold sharp dude so
4623s	can definitely expect him or expect that
4626s	there's a reason why and Veno are
4629s	looking to try and find those Bal
4632s	opportunities not too surprising though
4634s	to see Team still trying to collect as
4636s	much brick as possible here car me and
4639s	Vac definitely
4642s	wanting to just a few more builds but
4646s	understanding the fact that some of
4647s	these teams starting to trickle in as
4649s	Zone continues to pull just further
4651s	towards that Mega City area they're
4655s	going to have to be careful of the teams
4657s	rotating from above them yeah there are
4659s	a couple late stragglers looking to make
4661s	their way to the new Zone meanwhile
4663s	Spinx and poo sitting right above the
4665s	acorn and cold
4667s	here like the positioning so far no
4670s	reason to do anything too hasty just yet
4674s	on the feed miro's taking his own damage
4676s	to himself possibly taking some fall
4677s	damage possibly being Deep In the Zone
4679s	here falling on a late rotate could be
4683s	troubles on the horizon here not forget
4686s	Meo has all of the inperson experience
4688s	he has the fncs titles under his belt
4690s	but his
4691s	teammate pick it
4693s	up let's watch those Sphinx look at the
4696s	material count here this is a desperate
4697s	plea to get somewhere that he can
4699s	replenish so coming into the mega City
4702s	comes with its own risk but there it is
4703s	is rearming material is going to be the
4706s	name of the game for them meanwhile
4708s	securing the island malaba and Thomas
4712s	HD a huge huge gain here if you of
4715s	course can secure this worth 15 points
4719s	if you are the first to Rift Island to
4721s	go ahead and
4722s	convert it definitely seems as though
4724s	maluka and
4726s	Thomas are initially going to be
4728s	successful not sure if these other teams
4730s	that are looking to actually or them
4732s	will have have a chance to catch up in
4735s	time and ala Thomas still holding down
4739s	the capture
4740s	point they got to be aware of the fact
4743s	that there are bound to be some other
4746s	teams maybe if they can't get the
4748s	capture Point might still be looking for
4749s	the vault that remains but that is a
4752s	free 15 points there for maluka and
4755s	Thomas and the teams rotating from the
4757s	underside they've got to be careful now
4760s	because that's some good loot for maluka
4762s	and Thomas another way to look at that
4764s	Baka has three elims they scored more
4767s	points than those three eliminations are
4769s	worth in just a matter of 15 or so
4773s	seconds very very great way to put
4776s	yourself into a Sunday position and now
4780s	we watch some of Brazil's best ketos in
4782s	PH in versus Baka and fars here man Baka
4786s	and fars has not had an
4789s	easy way to the uh to the safe zone so
4792s	far I want to be surpris the storm
4794s	sickness turns on at this point for them
4796s	but when you think about it they're
4797s	nearly 600 above the damage threshold to
4800s	be that far up on Surge and yet still in
4803s	a less than favorable position here is
4806s	there a possibility that they may have
4808s	spent too much time looking for some of
4810s	those early fights and that might have
4813s	delayed them just long
4815s	enough yeah well listen we got to get
4818s	caught up with the ingame and the mid
4819s	game so let's go over to
4821s	11 thank you very much Monster look
4824s	there are so many high-profile battles
4826s	we've been watching all across the map
4828s	but one that we need to pay attention to
4830s	the Invitational Champions Camy and seti
4832s	went down early against DUS and stain
4835s	and it was a fight we knew could happen
4837s	but many people didn't actually expect
4838s	it to go down how it did DUS and stain
4841s	wiped Cam and set off spawn and now
4843s	they're conceeding throughout the game
4845s	and it's going to be a big question mark
4846s	for whether or not C City can bounce
4848s	back and how are DUS and Ste going to
4850s	use this opportunity how many more times
4852s	can they continue to beat these guys off
4854s	spawn I had the chance to speak to D
4856s	insan yesterday and even though they
4858s	don't speak English I tried my best and
4860s	they were there practicing their drops
4861s	they said they were ready they said they
4862s	had the better drops now they were going
4864s	to beat cameon city five out of
4867s	five what a bold statement to make thank
4870s	you Lev for the insights there and the
4873s	valuable Insight of being a really hear
4875s	from their perspectives but we have boa
4878s	oh big tags coming in for boa he doesn't
4881s	have a teammate either threats already
4883s	down for the count here he's below the
4886s	surge he's going to have to do more here
4888s	tacoa just looking so isolated right now
4893s	Bing and gun just really taking their
4895s	time to see whether or not they want to
4898s	try and
4899s	finalize on an elimination on
4902s	toaa definitely aware definitely closing
4904s	in sees that brief moment of Separation
4906s	there between going and ping and feels
4909s	as though it might be his opportunity to
4911s	strike but gone being certainly aware of
4916s	the fact that they're going to have BGA
4917s	trailing in behind them and buga he's
4918s	trying to take shots where he can gone
4920s	having some difficulties getting those
4921s	builds up behind
4923s	him that's going to put them in a really
4925s	rough position as both of these teams
4928s	struggling to make it into zone for a
4931s	second there I thought he got the knock
4932s	there close would have been a huge come
4935s	up for him but now he does have to move
4937s	in so just 97 above he will recognize
4940s	that of course he has to continue to
4941s	fight and push his way through this
4943s	meanwhile hotai finds an elimination on
4945s	the
4946s	kitos and other trades happening there
4949s	too seven man finding an elimination and
4953s	his teammate Amari gets one as well so
4955s	Middle East finding their success tier
4958s	two let's jump on over to Meo Meo who
4960s	picked up oiss just a bit ago that's
4962s	going to be the single elim in the
4964s	pocket there in a long long rotate now
4967s	as they have to push all the way Eastern
4969s	here if he wants to get
4971s	safe you can see Meo kind of just hoping
4976s	that nobody's going to spot him out for
4977s	Mega City but for Meo and Cooper all two
4980s	easy pickings here on the pookas trying
4982s	to hold his own but unfortunately this
4985s	pincer maneuver is one that we've seen
4987s	time and time again from the likes of
4989s	Meo and coer just a synchronized attack
4993s	that is way too problematic for INS solo
4995s	to deal with look at that Alex and
4998s	worthy turns the corner and gone is
5000s	waiting there from the outside of the
5001s	zone so we know boa is also close by
5004s	it's a very dangerous pocket to be and I
5006s	like that they're going out and around
5007s	the edges here but zone is already up to
5009s	two ticks worth of damage for every time
5012s	you sit in the zone
5015s	there Alex and worthy also have a little
5018s	bit of an upill
5020s	adventure Crash Pad definitely going to
5022s	help out with that as far as just
5024s	getting them some forward distance
5027s	coverage but again you have to expect
5030s	that there's a decent amount of teams
5032s	that were kind of situated inside of
5033s	Mega City those will be some of the
5036s	front leaders as far as getting more
5038s	towards that Center of Zone got a
5041s	handful of teams trying to prioritize as
5044s	things continue to pull further and
5045s	further away from Mega City
5047s	and
5050s	hero a nice little Glide in won't be
5053s	interrupted there on the launch pad but
5055s	look at this L look at these builds that
5057s	is not the kind of load out that you
5059s	want to see this deep into the game yeah
5062s	big big commitment as well into the
5064s	double metal Fortress here to pick
5066s	themselves up that low ground position
5068s	meanwhile Acorn and cold just slide
5070s	their way in so big teams we're seeing
5072s	here on the horizon T mustach still
5074s	alive maluka and crew up top meanwhile
5077s	fhd bot opens the window and gets
5081s	punished immediately looks like Hero's
5083s	going to have to leave his teammate down
5085s	for the count potentially here now as
5087s	he's going on in not worth sitting
5090s	around here potentially has the team on
5093s	the hunt yes it is Yuma right on his
5095s	heels here and voo and quey jump into
5098s	finish the deal so that's going to be
5100s	the huge Refreshers for voo and quey
5103s	now but you know quezy they have so much
5108s	space to work with you can see some of
5109s	the congestion that's starting to
5113s	build on this bottom edge of the Zone
5116s	but as far as quezy and men are
5117s	concerned they're definitely far enough
5120s	above the damage threshold 439 damage of
5123s	above that heisted breacher as well for
5126s	quezy depending on which direction they
5127s	actually choose to tarp out in could
5129s	make some quick work of
5131s	builds and lead for a great attack
5134s	opportunity there boa's in a very tough
5137s	position here 172 damage below the surge
5139s	threshold as the pressure continues to
5142s	mount on top of his shoulders here
5145s	already out of material now this is an
5147s	All or Nothing situation he he's a fight
5149s	happening nearby miss a couple of quick
5151s	Farms there but he has get into this one
5153s	this is truly all or nothing but no B
5157s	and he makes his way through the builds
5159s	there and
5162s	crushed that's just the unfortunate side
5164s	effects of not having any builds of your
5166s	own to work with you're just breaking
5167s	through everybody else is with the
5169s	pickaxe hoping that you're not going to
5171s	break through the wrong build and find
5173s	somebody right behind you or right in
5175s	front of you sneazy and Pai though
5179s	follow one with them a little bit
5180s	earlier on we saw them initially in some
5183s	pressure throughout some of that mid
5184s	game but definitely managed to work
5186s	through
5188s	it high ground though doesn't really
5190s	seem to
5191s	be too feasible for them from this
5195s	position it seems as though that's a
5197s	little bit more in control over there
5199s	with likes of Thomas maluka maybe
5201s	looking to work their way up also saw
5203s	Kylie doing a decent job decent Hill
5206s	position there yeah really having to use
5208s	these crash pads here to get on out now
5209s	it's time to make a move but again no
5211s	one near them is really going to give
5213s	them any kind of resistance here so it's
5215s	going to be a quick slide on down the
5216s	side here as long as no one opens up the
5218s	edit they are fine and Thomas and malaba
5222s	with expert Precision get right into
5224s	position here a going to be set up for
5226s	the first to make it to New Zone
5228s	meanwhile pink finds Meo he's down and
5232s	out on High Ground as well trulex and
5234s	Chicho set up for Success so we're
5236s	already looking at a very big game
5238s	remember with just five in front of us a
5240s	huge performance is really all it takes
5243s	to give you the leg up put you in the
5246s	spot to walk away straight to
5249s	Sunday not have an early day of
5252s	competition tomorrow but here's a little
5253s	early glimpse into the leaderboard so
5255s	far in match number one and Thomas
5257s	maluka they seem to be leading the
5259s	charge and with ping and Kyrie having
5262s	just been freshly eliminated there this
5265s	is a moment we saw malaba and Thomas
5268s	looking to see as though they might try
5271s	to work their way up through that
5272s	secondary tight layer but as far as
5273s	merach and P are concerned they know
5275s	they've got teams surrounding them every
5278s	which way right now it's about picking
5280s	the right direction to go and a lot of
5282s	these teams trying to avoid some of the
5284s	water that's just onside of the zone and
5288s	a just has a few teams alive Acorn and
5289s	coldan one of them baking pars Cooper is
5292s	up still too meanwhile quei and Veno
5296s	some of eu's best on the move right now
5298s	crash Pats perfectly putting them in
5300s	position right now but snazy and PA side
5302s	fall on this rotate here very tough time
5305s	for them indeed quezy playing for high
5307s	ground right now this is what we love
5310s	about que but no someone's going to shut
5311s	that dream down all the material commit
5315s	they're put to waste as now they have
5319s	been crushed there but here comes voo to
5320s	go and reconnect and high ground is
5322s	theirs here King meanwhile on the
5326s	opposite end of the
5327s	spectrum as a solo forced into the water
5330s	swimming through this ultimate Lo around
5332s	hoping that he doesn't encounter anybody
5334s	else anytime soon but it's going to be
5336s	mixing off to his side not able to
5337s	connect the shot swims directly
5339s	underneath a Duo and it's going to be an
5342s	opportunity for for strokey to possibly
5344s	get knocked no instead it's going to be
5345s	king under pressure and it's too much
5348s	the elimination onto the Brazilian King
5351s	yeah the comms come out they say wait
5352s	there's someone under here come down
5354s	support me and with no hesitation there
5357s	was froki and Kylie just coming on in
5359s	getting the full finish there here's
5360s	pars and Baka Baka so hurt but six
5363s	eliminations my gosh they are doing it
5366s	again they did it at the Invitational
5368s	they're doing it at the championship so
5370s	far remember this is going to be
5371s	arguably the most difficult bracket to
5374s	fight your way out of it is of course
5376s	the 50 best that played through their
5378s	respective times and those Seasons
5381s	throughout this entire year but look up
5383s	it's quey and Veno they get chopped
5385s	momentarily by merach but it's still not
5389s	seeming to deter them from maintaining
5391s	control of this High Ground stash now
5393s	hoping that this legendary slurp ju is
5395s	going to buy him enough time to get out
5397s	of this difficult position that he's
5398s	landed into with Jason and coold
5400s	meanwhile back side of the Zone trying
5402s	to charge his way forward looking to
5405s	stay as close to Acorn as possible
5407s	because as things continue to move you
5409s	can expect all these other Duos to
5411s	follow suit and Alex going to eat a shot
5414s	immediately ay meanwhile High Ground
5416s	goes for a fight here mustach and T
5418s	trying to take it all away they take
5420s	down oce's power Alex is well there big
5423s	big find for him but no they have to
5425s	conclude they have to concede it they
5426s	give it down quey puts up the fight
5428s	against T puts him down as well no
5430s	material left for The High Ground team a
5432s	very very tough spot to be in but it's
5435s	all or nothing now the end game is
5436s	already theirs this is surely a
5438s	successful run already re is still up
5441s	too but they just need just barely
5443s	enough builds to actually connect it to
5444s	the hill over this water where everyone
5446s	else is trying to deal with it Reit
5448s	though alongside rual everything in his
5451s	power here gets the elimination onto
5453s	Acorn it looks as though quey may have
5455s	fallen in the feet as well what a big
5457s	trade here just a couple players left
5459s	now this is it Veno Soo here but he does
5463s	have builds the clutch as possible he's
5465s	also one of the healthiest here on the
5466s	lobby foki doesn't have much to work
5468s	with he also can't get up and over it's
5470s	going to come down to the siphon if
5471s	whether or not can get the conclusion
5472s	and venol does look get it here finds
5475s	for strokey and the finish and Vino wins
5478s	the
5479s	game this is starting to work pretty
5482s	familiar monster quey and Veno striking
5487s	first in game number one of the global
5490s	Championship what a way to do it as well
5493s	explosive fashion in historic fashion
5496s	you know they are a team that should be
5498s	racking up wins and they're doing just
5501s	that lucky for us we have Frankie there
5503s	for the word yes I have run down to this
5506s	brief on you're exactly where you were
5507s	at boys this is exactly the start you
5510s	were looking for so stand up so
5512s	Copenhagen can see you come on quezy
5515s	Veno what's it like to win the first
5519s	Victory Royale of the global
5521s	Championship because I know that major 3
5523s	was a bit of a tough time for you it's
5525s	standard for us it's standard you know
5527s	every year we always got to win first
5529s	game we always got to have some boot
5531s	Royal and you know we just got to do
5533s	what we got to do is it nice to be back
5536s	in the same space on landine together
5538s	does that help in game yeah 100% I mean
5541s	from last year we came here to finish
5543s	the story and we'll see how it goes how
5545s	are you making season 4 work for you uh
5548s	I think we're well prepared we tried to
5551s	hide everything that we could and uh
5553s	we'll see you in the finals so tell me
5555s	about that final fight then because it
5557s	was it was an EU number you know your
5559s	opponents quite well why do you think
5561s	you were able to get the upper hand I
5563s	mean you know we had Thomas and uh Mala
5566s	come up on high and we put him down
5568s	thanks to queing myself and then you
5570s	know I clutched out I clutched out as a
5572s	you know it's just standard I I can't
5574s	really say anything more you know well
5575s	you don't want to tell everyone in
5577s	Copenhagen that you took down the Danish
5579s	boy Tomas so you're not scared that
5581s	you're going to become a villain here
5582s	you know I think we came here on our
5584s	villain Arc I cuz we came second you
5586s	know we want to show the Rival is over
5589s	but it's not is it I mean we'll see I'm
5591s	looking at them now well you guys fix
5594s	your eyes on each other and get ready to
5596s	board the battle bus again as we head
5598s	back to the desk congratulations crazyy
5600s	and
5601s	Veno
5604s	Here We Go Global championships kicks
5607s	off and what do we
5610s	expect not quite this I wasn't sure if
5613s	it was going to be quezy and Veno to be
5614s	honest there were so many names right
5616s	but of course quezy and Veno say Zeke
5618s	hold on a minute this is us I love that
5621s	he kind of calls out we're on our
5622s	villain Arc I agree I think these guys
5626s	want and have so much to prove in the
5628s	year they've had right that second place
5631s	to us is amazing wow second place life
5634s	changing amount of money to them it was
5636s	a loss now they are coming back stronger
5638s	than ever and they want the W yeah these
5641s	guys are winners right they they see
5643s	second as the same as 50th it doesn't
5645s	matter to them whether anyone else is
5648s	taking that Crown cuz they want it to be
5649s	them they want to make sure they can do
5651s	it and I really really like the way they
5653s	played that end game beautiful stuff
5654s	from them just typical queasy Veno stuff
5657s	they're on High Ground they got to that
5658s	front side of Zone cranked up actually
5660s	fell down at the beginning of that end
5662s	game which kind of threw them off a
5664s	little bit but no they're used to that
5665s	sort of situation and that's exactly
5667s	what they do best I do think that the
5669s	Zone pulled a little bit in their favor
5671s	but by zone three quey not only had a
5674s	gold twin mag AR a gold sharp tooth as
5677s	well six crash pads but also had two
5680s	Mythic slurps they were set for Success
5684s	from the get-go we see them of course
5686s	get chopped right there that was the
5688s	moment that kind of set them a little
5690s	bit away but no taking out maluka right
5692s	there that breach of shotgun as you
5693s	mentioned Kelly so good on height just
5695s	putting the pressure down and actually
5697s	using those crash pads of course we saw
5698s	quey going down a little bit earlier
5700s	here but I think if I'm quey I'm going
5702s	to be so confident having Beno on my
5704s	side because I mean just look at that
5706s	that's what he can do massive shots if
5708s	there's anyone you want clutching up as
5710s	a solo it's Veno he's got the the aim
5712s	he's got the game sense he has the
5713s	mechanics and of course he's such a
5715s	smart player just look at what it means
5717s	to them getting off to a great start
5719s	what a start for them they couldn't have
5721s	wanted anything different
5722s	yeah I mean I think what we have seen so
5724s	much about this Duo is it really doesn't
5727s	matter what situation they get put in a
5729s	lot of times we do kind of see this
5730s	happen one or the other is Left Alive
5732s	but what both do together is they're
5734s	setting the other up so it's like even
5736s	if one of us Falls it doesn't matter
5738s	I've set you up you have everything you
5739s	need go make something happen now of
5742s	course in this situation final three
5744s	ven's like got your right where I want
5747s	you yeah the players that they were
5749s	going up against too were incredible
5752s	players and so still to be able to do
5753s	that as a solo player like voo just did
5756s	just shows how confident and calm he can
5758s	be but also very excited too but I mean
5761s	if we're talking about quey and venno we
5763s	got to talk about the other side of the
5764s	coin right SEI and Camy going down early
5767s	just like Leven showed us yeah really
5769s	rough start for those guys a start they
5771s	definitely wouldn't have wanted I was
5772s	saying at the beginning of the show they
5773s	were practicing their drop spots they
5774s	were looking good but unfortunately
5776s	things can change bus passs can change
5777s	of course environments can change you
5779s	never know what can happen and of course
5780s	when you're fighting against team that
5782s	isn't on your home region usually things
5784s	can be different teams have different
5786s	play styles that you cannot possibly
5788s	prepare for so if there's anything we
5789s	know about Camy and setti when they do
5791s	make it off spawn I'm sure in the next
5792s	games in the future they'll be
5794s	absolutely fine it's just getting to
5796s	that end game for them might be a
5797s	problem yeah and this is just the first
5799s	game right obviously with only five
5801s	which is usually the typical six we
5803s	don't want to be making mistakes like
5805s	this but they still have four more to
5807s	make something happen now of course a
5809s	couple other du we wanted to highlight
5810s	for you guys Thomas HD and maluka again
5815s	like as we talk about names you're just
5816s	going to be like yeah no I forgot about
5817s	them I mean I know they're here stop it
5819s	is great but looking to perform here as
5821s	well and a pretty good showing in game
5823s	number one yeah not a bad showing at all
5825s	I mean we saw it in game in the first
5827s	little offs spawn battle right there
5829s	what a time to do what a way to kick off
5831s	the weekend right Thomas HD managing to
5834s	win out off spawn it wasn't even Thomas
5835s	actually that clutched it up it was of
5836s	course maluka who managed to pick up
5838s	this assault rifle off spawn really
5839s	really great for him actually cuz he
5841s	just found that little bit of High
5842s	Ground there at the end I really like
5843s	the way he used the reboot ban to block
5845s	as much shots as possible and then this
5847s	this little H managing to find that high
5849s	ground and then finally take out Canada
5852s	what a start for this youa we know how
5853s	the rest of the game went solid game for
5855s	them as well although it did go down to
5857s	a 1 V one and I think a lot of people
5859s	may have been expecting Malik bua and
5861s	Thomas HD kind of just take it so
5863s	sounded and and I think that they might
5866s	be taking it a little bit easier in
5868s	these next few games just because of how
5870s	close it was you saw Canada trying to
5872s	grab height right there and you were
5873s	right that maluka was able to use that
5876s	reboot van to his Advantage but if
5878s	Canada just got a little bit closer a
5880s	little bit sooner it could have been a
5882s	bit of a disaster for maluka can't
5884s	forget of course they had that Rift
5886s	Island as well of course it was the
5888s	South poing Zone they know where the
5889s	spawns are just outside of that
5891s	racetrack area there's not actually too
5893s	many spawns down in that sort of
5894s	Southeast area so they were actually
5895s	able to sort of predict where it was
5897s	going to be and they managed to get on
5898s	there uncontested completely nobody
5900s	nobody wanted to go for it first game of
5901s	an iners event who has the guts to go
5904s	for the island it's these guys yeah and
5906s	of course the crowd did lose it when we
5907s	saw that happen but here we go a look at
5910s	our standings now please remember we
5912s	have another four games to go but right
5914s	now as it stands quey and Veno after
5916s	that Victory roale and the Seven
5918s	eliminations they hold down that number
5920s	one spot but look at a couple of names
5922s	here right re and ritual I mean 76
5926s	points off of the back of five
5928s	eliminations as well there's no double
5930s	digits yet in this top 10 but to just
5933s	kind of see this list of names man this
5937s	is wild yeah another team there as well
5939s	Kylie F Roki in third place they
5941s	actually land sort of towards the area
5943s	in that sort of steamy strings area so
5944s	the Zone was definitely in their favor
5946s	but in a five game format if you can get
5948s	that first Zone under your belt get
5950s	those points on the board early that's a
5952s	really really great stop from this guys
5953s	cuz remember they qualified through the
5954s	last chance major so they want to try
5956s	and put on they didn't qualify to sorry
5957s	major number three that's tomorrow uh
5959s	they qualified to Major number three so
5960s	they left it to the last that's one of
5961s	the teams that want to get off to a good
5962s	start here to try and boost their
5964s	confidence and make sure that they can
5965s	make it through to Sunday man I do want
5967s	to give some shout outs to Reon ritual I
5969s	know I always take the chance when I get
5970s	the opportunity to go said it I mean
5973s	Reit has just evolved as a player for
5977s	from the last two years he used to be
5979s	the wkey king to the point where you
5982s	couldn't really contain him but around
5984s	zone three or four you saw him playing
5987s	patiently they towered up pretty early
5989s	on able to get those storm Sur tags and
5992s	it wasn't until towards the end game
5994s	that re really popped off and grabbed a
5996s	few eliminations they're not really a
5999s	placement player and to see him get that
6001s	second place spot or third place and
6003s	eliminations as well I mean I'm just
6005s	proud to see him evolve as a player was
6007s	really difficult down those lower layers
6008s	as well remember that End Zone it was
6010s	all over water it was an absolute mess I
6011s	saw King there swimming through like a
6014s	shark down below trying to scoop up some
6016s	loot of course he ended up getting taken
6017s	out but those are the difficult times if
6019s	you don't have those materials you don't
6020s	have those refreshes when you have the
6022s	fragging power of re that's where those
6024s	fragging power that's where those
6025s	refreshes come into play because you
6027s	need those builds in that water Zone you
6029s	someone say those Reit brushes anyway
6031s	let's go back to the leader board let's
6034s	talk about more just just Zeke things um
6037s	another duo we kind of highlighted the
6038s	start of the show in sixth place you can
6040s	see cold and acorn right they did manage
6043s	to find themselves the five eliminations
6045s	but they're maybe lacking a little bit
6048s	on those placements now I feel like for
6050s	me rather than kind of like go through
6051s	all these two and kind of talk about
6053s	everybody I kind of want to talk about
6054s	what we saw in that game mad congested
6057s	right there was toward the end game
6059s	almost no one had materials right
6061s	everyone's doing the same thing we are
6063s	trying to go on the defensive we don't
6064s	want to make a mistake here in game
6066s	number one well that's due to the fact
6068s	that this is a low Mobility meta besides
6070s	the rocket Ram so these players instead
6073s	of being able to kind of just use these
6074s	Mobility items to rotate around the map
6077s	they're going to have to tarp up they're
6078s	going to have to protect themselves as
6079s	they rotate all the way to that far
6082s	Southeastern side so it does kind of
6085s	benefit the teams that are closer there
6087s	or the teams we did see a few players
6089s	using rocket Rams in there or at least
6091s	having them in their load out just in
6093s	case but this is going to be a difficult
6096s	meta it did start in major 3 so a lot of
6098s	these players are already used to it but
6100s	still utilizing your mats when you can
6104s	is definitely going to be a big part and
6106s	you mentioned in there Acorn and cold in
6107s	sixth place they made it to that end
6109s	game because of their off spawn and
6110s	initially we were thinking right these
6112s	guys have been contesting pink and vco
6113s	that's been the story line for the whole
6114s	time but it seems like they actually
6116s	switched drop here and they actually
6117s	ended up going towards ey drop and Mappy
6119s	in that sort of central area where all
6121s	those Caravans are they actually
6122s	switched to their drop last minute they
6124s	thought yeah let's just try and land on
6125s	this team and it worked out for them so
6127s	that just shows how those little
6128s	decisions like that switching the drop
6130s	spot at the last moment can make a big
6132s	difference and it did make a big
6133s	difference we saw earlier on in the game
6135s	that acor and cold had 12 splashes on
6138s	just one player and again using those
6140s	rotations that's pretty much one of the
6142s	only Mobility items in the game besides
6144s	the launch pads and then of course the
6145s	mini crash pads as well it's I mean they
6148s	definitely seem to have used that change
6150s	in drop spot which isn't something we
6152s	typically see on this caliber really
6155s	well and another team that I want to
6157s	talk about just by the leaderboard that
6158s	we saw is Thomas HD and maluka you can
6161s	see through their placement points that
6163s	they didn't get that many placement
6164s	points but the 15 points from the rift
6167s	Island made up the difference those
6170s	mid-match objectives will make or break
6173s	some Duos now at the start of the show
6175s	we talked about t the online goat
6178s	looking to make that Land Title kind of
6181s	all-encompassing just goat status paired
6185s	up with merach after this game right
6187s	this is a pretty decent start right and
6190s	again like we have to kind of be mindful
6192s	that remember there's six regions just
6194s	game one there's a lot of jitters after
6197s	game two what can we see them adapt or
6199s	change that might make this
6201s	game two crazier for them I mean we saw
6204s	them go for height there we saw them
6205s	prepping those slurps you see at this
6207s	moment right here merach just trying to
6208s	look up at quezy and Veno to go for that
6210s	High Ground T unfortunately getting
6212s	taken out so for this was a difficult
6214s	situation for them didn't quite have the
6216s	bills to make it happen and that can be
6218s	the problem if you're cranking up on
6219s	that back side of Zone you're expending
6221s	so many materials and if you're going up
6223s	against a great height team like que and
6225s	Veno that's where things can get
6227s	difficult but a really great start from
6228s	this St of course landing at the north
6229s	side of Slappy Shores we saw them
6231s	getting those surge tanks really really
6232s	early massive base that they seemingly
6234s	build every single game they go there
6237s	all those extra heals it got them to
6238s	that end game and they just need to keep
6240s	that consistency CU if they keep it up
6241s	they're going to do good and I think
6242s	what helped them too is that they were
6244s	holding second height or in that mid
6245s	ground really well where a lot of people
6247s	a lot of the top teams were kind of
6249s	fighting for that high ground or they
6250s	were in the depths of the water below so
6253s	by being aware situationally aware of
6256s	where all the other teams are and taking
6258s	that advantageous position in the midr
6260s	definit help them for sure now of course
6263s	that crazy moment in the victory roale
6265s	was wild but we have the ability to
6267s	listen in on the players so let's relive
6270s	this moment but from Vino's
6276s	perspective 200 de I got it I got it I
6278s	got it I'm coming up coming up coming
6280s	up crashing I'm rocking I'm rock I'm
6283s	going to rock it okay I'm dead probably
6284s	I'm dead I'm dead I'm dead top four top
6287s	four all Duos land on
6289s	H nice
6291s	Corner nice I'm tacked I'm tacked yeah
6295s	22 or two two one solo and the duo top
6298s	three top three you have medm play medm
6300s	play Med top two play medm top two trust
6302s	I'll let you know if he gets knocked
6303s	I'll let you know if he gets
6307s	knocked I got I knock yeah one V One V
6310s	one you're
6316s	good that's kind of nuts R I love that
6321s	Veno is able to just focus right it's
6323s	just about just let me rock my mechanics
6327s	right just just tell me where to look
6329s	tell me what to do and then just let me
6331s	execute upon that quey just so calm
6334s	right he's like like obviously there is
6336s	a bit of Chaos in the moment but que
6338s	just listen listen just grab this you're
6340s	fine trust you've got this and that's
6342s	such a skill as well I feel like not
6343s	many people talk about it when you are
6344s	down and your teammate is solo clutching
6346s	like that the conss that you give are so
6348s	vital you can see quezy just making sure
6350s	that he is giving the absolute perfect
6352s	PS what he needs to know maybe he might
6354s	have missed something maybe it's his
6355s	heels maybe it's his materials but ven's
6357s	like okay let me cook just give me the
6359s	ingredients that I need and part of the
6360s	reason he cooked there was that rocket
6362s	Ram using it to go straight up into the
6364s	air see where the rest of the remaining
6366s	Lobby is L down immediately and get that
6370s	incredible shot that's why we're seeing
6372s	them in first place right now 93 points
6375s	to start off the day a pretty decent
6378s	lead relative to the rest of the lobby
6380s	here
6381s	and you know the I don't want to say
6383s	necessarily bravery but to use that rock
6385s	Ram in that situation almost is like RIS
6388s	it's risky right mad uh high risk High
6391s	reward but for him he makes it work
6393s	here's a look at our top 20 Duos as it
6395s	stands just after game number one
6397s	remember four more to go uh we had
6399s	highlighted Cooper and miror though in
6400s	there in the 16th Place at the top of
6402s	the show as well as Alex and worthy or
6405s	is there maybe a Duo standing on these
6408s	top 20 that stand out to you guys I
6410s	think for me it's gripy and flixy these
6411s	guys land at Mega City so you would
6414s	maybe expect them to have a little bit
6415s	of a better game right there sat in 19th
6418s	Place when the zone does pull towards
6420s	you especially at Mega C you can just
6421s	sit on those on those Towers on those
6423s	buildings and try and farm storm SE I
6424s	think they might have struggled with
6425s	that a little bit because of course so
6427s	many teams are rotating in but it might
6428s	be a little bit too late you almost need
6429s	to rotate out get that storm so to try
6431s	and get back on that High Ground at the
6433s	right moment and from what I've seen
6434s	from those guys they're doing that so
6436s	well previously maybe a few spanners in
6438s	the works have been a little bit more
6439s	difficult for them because they need to
6440s	try and find those refreshes and that
6442s	water Zone definitely didn't help either
6443s	I mean I was looking at the top of that
6445s	page too right there and Alex and worthy
6447s	representing the oce region a pretty do
6450s	a good job after game number one there
6452s	and I know that a lot of people tend to
6454s	think that these competitions are going
6456s	to be you know oh EU and then maybe na
6458s	but a lot of these you know smaller
6460s	regions showing up right from the get-go
6463s	and it's about making a statement in
6464s	this first day right remember first five
6466s	top 25 go on to Grand finals on Sunday
6470s	so the jobs not not done but it's about
6472s	making those statements it's about
6473s	saying regardless of what we do if you
6475s	see us in Grand finals you know what to
6477s	expect from us yeah and I think you saw
6479s	that in the reaction from quezy and Veno
6481s	right they were hyped like they were
6482s	happy you got to be happy at winning
6483s	first game of day one of the global
6485s	championships but they weren't too happy
6487s	they didn't let their emotions get the
6488s	better of them they were very very cool
6490s	calm collected in that interview and I
6491s	think that's absolutely vital for them
6493s	because they know it's a marathon it's
6494s	not Sprint yeah and speaking of a
6496s	marathon we saw Baka kind of going on a
6499s	marathon throughout that game right
6500s	there grabbing so many eliminations and
6503s	part of that definitely has to be to
6505s	that uh Mythic mk7 that he had there he
6508s	was 600 damage above storm surge in the
6512s	middle of the game and by having that on
6514s	your pocket it's definitely going to be
6516s	you know a bit more of a confidence
6517s	boost leading into the end game Okay so
6519s	we've highlighted some Duos we talked
6521s	about what we like what did we maybe not
6523s	like out of this first game are there
6524s	things we're kind of hoping to see
6527s	change going into these next four cuz
6529s	remember this is it you want to end the
6531s	day in top 25 yeah I think I want to see
6534s	less water in the end zone next game how
6535s	about that can we can we get a little
6537s	less water please I want to see low
6538s	ground team starting to do good I want
6539s	to see omo Rise I want to see them
6540s	starting to play their way through the
6542s	mid and low ground layers so yeah a
6543s	little bit less water Kelly I think what
6545s	about you and I always just prefer to
6546s	see the zone change in different spots I
6548s	think that really makes or breaks these
6550s	teams because although gu queing you
6552s	know are an incredible duo in their own
6555s	right they did have an advantage by The
6558s	Zone pulling in southeast so by
6560s	showcasing if they can get another VR if
6562s	it pulls all the way to the Northwest
6564s	well that's what makes them champions
6566s	for sure and I think I I feel like we'd
6569s	uh we'd do an injustice one could say if
6571s	we didn't talk about the X Factor that
6572s	wasn't part of this game Camy and seti
6575s	right if they had been left alive how
6578s	different would this end game have been
6580s	I mean who knows is the question right I
6582s	mean these guys of course quezy and ven
6584s	are a fantastic Duo they won on high
6586s	ground but Camy and seti can disrupt
6588s	lobbies like that they can play their
6589s	way through those mid mid ground layers
6591s	and of course sometimes we've seen them
6592s	I mean we talked about at the beginning
6593s	of the show how they're able to go for
6595s	High Ground now we saw that sort of
6596s	developing throughout chapter 3 we saw
6597s	them trying to go for that height just
6599s	adding another Dynamic another element
6600s	to their game so of course as you
6602s	mentioned they're not necessarily
6604s	labeled as a height team necessarily but
6605s	they can do it so if it's anyone can
6607s	sort of contest those guys maybe it's
6609s	them I mean showcasing though that they
6610s	did have that rough start I don't know
6612s	exactly how their positions would have
6614s	been towards the mid and late game there
6616s	and I think by having that rough start
6618s	if they did make in survive into the end
6620s	game they probably would have stuck to
6621s	the low ground and we saw how chaotic
6623s	that low ground was so I don't know if
6625s	they necessarily would have even
6626s	attempted to go for High Ground
6628s	especially with the two Duos of quezy
6630s	and then Thomas HDs uh going up on high
6633s	I think that they you know may have not
6635s	even had that great of an in game if
6637s	they did make it there okay okay so what
6639s	we're saying is people are fighting over
6641s	High Ground yeah we want more of that
6644s	because High Ground gam more fun and
6647s	that too yeah yeah I mean quy Veno they
6648s	won six games out of 12 in too from
6651s	highight so it just if that's anything
6652s	to go by I think all the teams want to
6654s	be on that high ground for sure I'll say
6656s	something I I I want to seea again in
6659s	game number two he held out so long as a
6663s	solo player which is something you would
6665s	expect with someone as much experiences
6667s	him being able to understand when to
6669s	leave a fight how to rotate away from
6671s	everyone else through the dead side
6673s	rotation and I think he could do even
6674s	better with threats yeah that was a kind
6676s	of a difficult situation to be put in
6678s	right so many people Landing there at
6679s	Mega City
6681s	losing threats very very early on and
6683s	then there's just so much pressure you
6685s	can't go for the reboot you can't try
6686s	and make something happen he did still
6688s	manage to find eliminations right that's
6690s	still points we still are working
6693s	towards something but I think you're
6694s	right Kelly with threats there it could
6696s	be different mini yeah definitely and we
6698s	saw booger actually going down to Surge
6699s	there he was trying to be a little bit
6701s	too aggressive CU he needed that storm
6703s	surge damage and when you're only one of
6705s	two it's so difficult to do double the
6707s	damage that you need because of course
6709s	he's only on his own he tried his best
6711s	and being only 174 below at that point
6712s	is a credit to how much damage and how
6714s	much aggression he was showing in that
6716s	mid game because he needed to do it but
6718s	I mean it's Booga he can make anything
6719s	happen yeah and this is still just game
6721s	one of day one there's so many more
6724s	opportunities for these Duos to change
6726s	up their play style and potentially pull
6728s	out something we haven't seen before
6729s	that's right well uh let's let's hear
6731s	from uh Frankie who's actually standing
6733s	by cuz we want to hear what's going down
6735s	in the crowd well I think Copenhagen
6738s	thoroughly enjoyed game number one did
6740s	you love it
6744s	Copenhagen were you happy that it was a
6747s	European Victory let me hear
6751s	you I have met a couple of Americans
6754s	who's traveled all the way here I don't
6756s	know if there are many North American
6758s	fans in the audience can we hear it do
6759s	you love North
6762s	America that's not bad and don't forget
6764s	this is the Friday so the audience is
6766s	still arriving cuz people are coming
6767s	from work maybe someone's plane was
6768s	delayed what about Brazil Brazilian
6772s	fans you can always count on the
6775s	Brazilian fans to show up for their
6776s	players any esport any game the
6779s	Brazilian fans always give love we've
6781s	also got so many Japanese players on
6785s	stage as well I did meet a lovely
6786s	Japanese F who came in just for them
6788s	today as well any more Japanese or Asian
6792s	fans oh I love it they've all gathered
6794s	over here we literally have a row over
6796s	here of the Japanese fans oh we
6799s	literally have entire group of people
6801s	who are in Jersey so we're here to
6803s	support the Japanese players and what
6805s	about middle eastn
6810s	Africa oh well we've certainly got some
6814s	of the crowd going and I can't wait to
6815s	hear how things hot up as the
6817s	competition continues for now let's head
6819s	back to the
6822s	desk this is what it's all about it's
6825s	it's hard to not get a little bit
6827s	emotional when you think about like we
6829s	have been having competition kind of
6831s	separate all year right and now getting
6834s	to come together to just compete
6836s	obviously there's a lot of stakes but
6838s	when you just think about this concept
6840s	six regions all going head-to-head the
6842s	fans in the stadium I'm sure fans at
6844s	home watching all the people you are all
6846s	cheering for it's just something else
6848s	man so good I mean we see it online we
6850s	see some stuff on social media people
6853s	having a little bit of banter between
6854s	themselves a bit of rivalry some some
6856s	some some love as well between different
6857s	regions but to see it all here right
6859s	here right now is absolutely amazing I
6861s	like the fact that Frankie went around
6862s	the whole arena there to see who was
6864s	where where we expect to see some people
6866s	and we have some very very loud fancy oh
6868s	just a bit just a bit indeed so gentle
6870s	uh I mean we actually I mean yes there
6872s	is a little bit of banter going on
6875s	online but there's also a little bit of
6877s	ban going on in the pre-show but I want
6879s	to talk about re and ritual I already
6881s	talked a little bit about them but I
6882s	just want to showcase how they were able
6884s	to make it into the end game there and
6886s	as we can see five eliminations and that
6889s	second place but I mean that's a great
6893s	start it's a great start from this team
6895s	I mean we've seen these guys I we've
6896s	seen Mar performing on these
6898s	International stages before not quite
6900s	having the best results that we would
6901s	expect from his caliber of player but I
6903s	mean he's crazy he's going to be hopping
6905s	in boxes as we get to have a little look
6907s	at some of the highlights from them of
6908s	course ritual putting on such a great
6910s	show there as well and again this is
6911s	what we talked about earlier they're
6912s	just able to pick up refresh you can see
6914s	re right now zero bills he thrives in
6916s	these environments when he's got nothing
6918s	when he's down in the dirt he can just
6920s	pull something out of the bag and you
6922s	can see it right here he's got all the
6924s	loot to make it happen as much as
6925s	possible unfortunately couldn't quite
6927s	make it all the way to a victory but
6929s	second place for those guys if that Hill
6931s	wasn't in the way a little re versus
6933s	Veno 1 V one I want to see it and I love
6936s	just him showcasing there all of the
6939s	ability that he has the quick builds the
6942s	easy edits great eliminations the
6945s	patience as well as the aggression I
6948s	mean that's what it takes to be a top
6950s	player it's not just having good aim
6951s	it's not just having game sense it's
6953s	having it all yeah and I think what that
6955s	game play showed me and actually
6957s	something we've kind of seen a lot of
6959s	but more players have kind of shined a
6961s	light on is these sneaky tactics right
6963s	it's not about let me just run at you
6965s	cuz remember these players are playing
6966s	with indicators there's so many ways to
6968s	kind of know there's a threat incoming
6970s	but for so many players they're kind of
6971s	utilizing the strategy where we're just
6973s	going to crouch around we're come around
6974s	this cor we're not going to build we're
6975s	not going to make any sounds and then
6976s	suddenly bang we're here and now you're
6978s	in a fight for Reed this took him up to
6981s	Second Place yeah absolutely insane I
6983s	mean we saw him there with the the
6985s	Exotic shotgun just doing so much damage
6987s	jumping right in the Box I think that
6989s	that shotgun and him are like a a match
6991s	made in heaven I mean it's the perfect
6992s	shotgun just to jump in the box and go
6994s	crazy with so I'm expecting more of that
6996s	from them I'm expecting them to maybe
6998s	try and keep consistent while s are
6999s	going for those eliminations but it's
7001s	one of those situations for them where
7002s	do they have what it takes I think so I
7005s	I just all about how can they feel after
7008s	game number two what's going through
7009s	there their head right now how do you
7011s	even pick up from a game where I'm sure
7013s	they would have hoped to have won but
7015s	they couldn't have got off to a much
7016s	better start than that only one place my
7018s	only concern is that they can be a bit
7019s	of emotional players and being emotional
7022s	is is you know it's a double-edged sword
7024s	it does give you that passion that
7025s	excitement but then it also can be a big
7027s	detriment where once you're down you are
7029s	down for the rest of the competition now
7031s	again I keep talking about the evolution
7033s	of these two as players so hopefully
7035s	they've been able to kind of break past
7038s	that wall but I mean my goodness game
7041s	number one and just so many big names
7043s	going down early so many new teams also
7046s	coming through and kind of showcasing
7048s	their region and I already talked about
7050s	about the mo Baka and pars Baka and pars
7053s	getting eight eliminations in that game
7056s	I mean they just seemed to have a game
7058s	where they were so far away from the
7059s	Zone almost seemingly every single time
7061s	yet they managed that so really well we
7064s	saw them taking that fight all the way
7065s	up on the North side of the map which
7066s	did drag out a little bit of course a
7068s	2V1 situation you want to be getting
7069s	that done as soon as possible you want
7070s	to be cleaning that fight up ASAP so for
7073s	them they had to expend a little bit of
7074s	heals of course but that did give them
7075s	the storm surge damage I know Taco
7077s	mentioned it on the cast They had so
7079s	much storm surge damage at this point
7081s	just a testament to their fighting
7082s	ability and you can see it again needing
7084s	those refreshes hopping in the box and
7086s	recently these guys have really been
7088s	impressing me they've been cooking
7089s	they've been doing really good I mean
7090s	look at that Baka down to a sliver of
7093s	Health literally one HP but what he did
7096s	is incredible the confidence that he has
7099s	he didn't run away and turn tail which a
7101s	lot of these players would do instead he
7104s	kept going for that refresh and clearly
7107s	it worked out for them par is
7108s	unfortunately getting one V2 there but
7112s	still after that fight they have to be
7114s	feeling good remember both these guys
7116s	actually played with different teammates
7117s	at the Invitational so I think those
7120s	land Jitters they're not going to be
7121s	affecting those guys quite as much and I
7123s	think that's why they got to a very very
7125s	good start there despite the Zone
7127s	pulling all the way down to the South
7128s	they had all the an to all of those
7130s	questions and I think in this stage in
7132s	this environment that we're in that's
7134s	the most important thing just trusting
7135s	your game absolutely well we're getting
7137s	where the game two of the day is ready
7139s	so let's send it back on up to the
7141s	casters to get things started thank you
7143s	so very much zek and that's right we're
7145s	really beginning the reset right now
7147s	game two is just moments away and as we
7149s	already know we will have to see what
7151s	will happen with Canada on the drop here
7153s	alongside aers aers for the numbers but
7155s	here it is game number two is
7158s	ready
7167s	and just like that we are right back in
7170s	it with match number two of day one here
7174s	of the upper bracket at the global
7176s	championship and again monster you were
7179s	just starting to touch on it but some of
7180s	these initial 50/50s particularly that
7182s	one down at drift Ridge not going the
7185s	way that maybe some of these players
7186s	might have expected and crazy look at
7188s	this the 50/50 stain and datus Landing
7190s	directly on top of seti and Cammy really
7193s	looking to play upset here SII quite
7196s	doesn't land perfectly inside he doesn't
7197s	get a weapon first but Cammy does Cammy
7199s	does exactly what he needs to gets the
7201s	finish here gets the siphon as well and
7204s	it's all in his favor right now here
7205s	comes the pressure but it's all up to
7207s	datus to keep the hopes of aah alive
7210s	here they managed to win out game number
7212s	one SE though relatively low we see
7213s	Canada as well striking back for Revenge
7216s	there with a knock on to maluka but the
7219s	action here frenzy feels it's continuing
7221s	to build as dasis now looking for a
7224s	little bit of a wraparound just outside
7225s	of This Barn dasis getting some nice
7227s	shots SE will go down now it's just the
7229s	one V one between Cammy and dasis man
7231s	dasis really showing us what He is
7234s	capable of coming second the fncs major
7236s	thing for the Asian region but no comes
7237s	in and Camy finishes the job they strike
7240s	back but it's not over yet meanwhile
7243s	looks like Canada and aers have also
7246s	finished the deed on their side of the
7248s	map you got to think look Kylie foki
7251s	listening to what's happening here so
7253s	Cam and C are not saved just yet
7256s	meanwhile North pars Baka coming out of
7259s	the early game they have three
7260s	eliminations so it wasn't just this team
7262s	they finished they had more to fight
7263s	after this but it started with pars and
7266s	Baka getting that early Duo elimination
7268s	onto Misha and Tini and whether or not
7271s	they can look for a repeat instance is
7273s	all going to boil down so whether or not
7276s	Baka and pars really want to try and
7278s	take a more aggressive push
7280s	here Whispers have to bounce back though
7283s	we absolutely have to look at a quick
7285s	highlight here take a look at how Canada
7287s	with the Redemption shot here opens up
7289s	onto malauka the greed was real he
7292s	finishes him off and then Thomas HD in
7295s	the distance the the shoes were
7297s	chained put on the other foot here they
7300s	secure the slurp truck get the double
7302s	angle and Canada aggressively slides on
7305s	over to get the full finish and now they
7308s	have a chance to fight back here we
7310s	could be seeing both of them in Sunday
7312s	finals if it wasn't for that slurp truck
7314s	things might have looked a little
7315s	different there for kanana cuz I don't
7317s	know you notied but only eight shots
7319s	left in that twin
7321s	mag but again now it's going to be
7324s	Thomas and maluka who are left to sit
7327s	and simmer wait to see whether or not
7331s	they can finalize things there in game
7333s	three crazy to think too there's only
7335s	five games right and all of a sudden now
7337s	two of our favorite Duos one for EU and
7340s	have now have a chance here to to really
7343s	sit uh uh uh make a big deal and and
7345s	push their way up the standings really
7347s	showing you that hey there's a limited
7348s	number of opportunities you have to make
7349s	the best of it I told you the strokey
7352s	and Company might be coming on over and
7353s	look at this we're here to play upset
7356s	Cammy and seti they might have dealt
7358s	with stain and dasis at the beginning
7361s	but they still have plenty of work cut
7362s	out for them for strokey just slightly
7365s	above Cammy for the time being Cammy
7366s	though doing a good job utilizing these
7368s	builds some brick going to be going
7371s	out not enough yet for for strokey to
7374s	feel comfortable but it's Cammy with
7376s	that left side Peak bit tough to try and
7378s	work with said watching a side angle
7381s	here seeing if he can take advantage of
7382s	any opening cracking the armor here but
7386s	foki putting the pressure on starting to
7388s	run low on ammunition here so he will
7389s	have to be careful or make a decision
7391s	here to full commit instead gets
7392s	punished first cutting right through the
7394s	over Shields and the additional Shield
7397s	pot there so he is going to have to dig
7398s	into it meanwhile Kylie with the side
7400s	angle suppressed pistol putting in good
7402s	work here we like the angles but said he
7406s	clapping back another great angle C be
7409s	really hitting the tags when it matters
7410s	right now that's tough for Kylie as well
7413s	I mean he's really got to get up close
7414s	in personal that's supress pist going to
7415s	be difficult to work with in comparison
7417s	to that sharp tooth but Cammy SE they
7419s	are not willing to budge they are
7422s	staying as close to each other as
7423s	possible because they also want to make
7424s	sure that they stay in contention of
7426s	this capture Point not trying to Let It
7428s	Go for free towards Kylie for sty it
7430s	seems for the time being they have
7432s	successfully managed to push them off
7433s	entirely so it does look as though Cammy
7436s	and SE are going to buy themselves just
7438s	enough time and the capture point will
7439s	be in their favor meanwhile pink and
7441s	voco lurking nearby they're contesting
7443s	half of the split off of acorn and cold
7446s	now on the other side Slappy Shores T
7448s	and merach here's the team that can
7450s	truly take home the grand finals they
7453s	can make it there
7455s	definitely a pick
7458s	indeed
7460s	what a tower basee though for T I mean
7462s	you got a couple of medm Miss waiting
7464s	ample amounts of Shield potions
7467s	including a couple of big Shield potions
7468s	so for TAS his sole responsibility for
7471s	the time being is just to establish as
7473s	much surge damage control as possible
7475s	and it looks as though the limpy Tells a
7478s	different story or actually a same story
7480s	if your par is in Baka cuz for the time
7483s	being Tini at least no longer in the
7486s	lobby yeah pars and Baka turn online now
7488s	and get the the finish on to Tini there
7491s	it is so the full finish onto Misha and
7493s	Tini both sent back to the lobby
7496s	meanwhile there is another Duo lurking
7498s	from above chubs and Bryce looking on
7501s	down trying to see what they can do to
7503s	influence this exchange here can they
7505s	find tags to go ahead and put themselves
7507s	in a successful position so far so good
7510s	but these are absolutely important
7513s	exchanges here and listen ARs and Baka
7515s	man you got to give them some respect
7516s	dude when it comes down to performing
7520s	you would have thought at the
7521s	Invitational hey look we don't have Land
7522s	Experience what's going to happen nope
7524s	they are here showing that they didn't
7526s	need it and they're even better than the
7528s	last time we saw
7530s	them don't really need Land Experience
7533s	if you can just trust your instincts as
7535s	a player and that seems to be exactly
7537s	the mentality here for pars just
7539s	breaking through Tiny's builds tetiny
7541s	absolutely no help to work with in that
7544s	circumstance but it it's a nice
7547s	establishing point there because now
7550s	that is two games back to back that's
7552s	going to start to pose an real issue
7555s	here because again monster it's only 5
7557s	game and for Misha and Tini to be
7559s	knocked so early on they've got some
7561s	ground to really make up for at this
7564s	point a lot of ground to make
7568s	up cover to be made here but Acorn cold
7571s	looking good so
7573s	far sping out here trying to see if he
7575s	can Farm some surge in a distance
7577s	meanwhile ritual will find a knock onto
7581s	edgy Reen ritual what a surprise from
7585s	them I did not expect them to have such
7587s	standout performances especially with
7589s	such a strong game one uh game one and
7592s	then an even better start to their game
7595s	two so
7597s	far here's Jamon in
7600s	Yuma very very interesting Duo right
7605s	here just kind of floating around for
7607s	the time being
7610s	just waiting to determine which
7613s	direction seems as though they're just
7615s	going to build a little bit
7617s	further into this jungle biome and Yuma
7622s	neon doesn't seem as though they have
7624s	any other incentive for the time being
7626s	as far as aggression is concerned but
7628s	might be having to pick things up a
7630s	little bit as again we did see some
7632s	teams struggling a bit in gain number
7635s	one as far as that surge damage
7637s	threshold was concerned yeah stroy and
7639s	Kylie definitely not going to have a
7640s	problem with that right now one of the
7641s	few teams with an elimination right now
7643s	already making a move deep into the
7646s	outskirts here as they see there's a
7648s	potential cachet left behind so trying
7651s	to secure what they can brick needed
7654s	metal needed so very important for them
7656s	to get their rotation loot route down
7659s	Snappy here as the Zone will be pushing
7662s	in pretty
7664s	quickly on the other side pink and Vico
7666s	from the frenzy Farms now up to a high
7668s	ground position
7669s	here going to go for trades and oh what
7672s	a dirty angle there
7673s	forco those are extremely important onto
7676s	teams inside the mega City but again we
7679s	see some of the action that's been
7681s	unfolding here so far but we've got 11
7683s	to give us even more thank you very much
7686s	Taco look we just saw pink and vka there
7688s	on the screen we've seen acor and cold
7690s	in this game as well coming into this
7691s	game both these teams in the top 10 if
7693s	you know anything about me I like to see
7695s	action I like to see fighting and I
7696s	thought these two were going to be
7698s	fighting and even pink himself said look
7700s	we might have to fight them there's not
7701s	enough loot in this area for both of us
7703s	to share but they're somehow making it
7705s	work so far in game one both of them
7707s	they're making things so Scrappy every
7709s	single bit of loot they can get they're
7710s	going for and somehow they're in the top
7712s	10 if they can continue I expect both of
7714s	these teams to call but when it comes
7715s	time to Grand finals I don't expect them
7717s	to be friendly anymore I'm thinking if
7719s	they can both qualify that's when we're
7721s	going to start to see some action for
7723s	them that's an excellent point is it's
7726s	one thing to make your way through a top
7727s	25 being the the uh you know the hurdle
7729s	to overcome that's that's a pretty low
7731s	barrier for some of these top tier
7733s	competitors but when you get to finals
7736s	you you know it's going to be a lot
7737s	harder now as number one is all that
7739s	matters for the best of the best that's
7743s	got to be every Duo for themselves at
7744s	that point and especially I mean
7746s	you have to consider what he even
7747s	mentioned in one of the pre-show videos
7749s	that we saw C metal is so important for
7753s	him and you have to expect that his
7756s	split drop he is not trying to share by
7760s	any means with anyone else oh take a
7762s	look at this zagu and pepo actually have
7764s	finally found themselves elimination
7766s	last game taken out a lot earlier than
7768s	they would have liked so this is their
7769s	chance to go ahead and bounce back put
7770s	some numbers on the board and they have
7773s	a very very interesting strategy they're
7775s	actually healing Striker and getting as
7778s	much surge as possible what a unique
7780s	position to be in but also you have to
7783s	be so smart to think like this this is
7787s	how again ahe zagu and Pepa but imagine
7792s	being Striker your fate completely
7796s	decided just watching yourself benefit
7800s	some of your competitors to the utmost
7802s	extent and if if you're a fortnite like
7805s	super nerd like I am that right there
7807s	that was genius that was so
7811s	genius wory
7813s	meanwhile he's got to get a different
7816s	sort of strategy going decent span out
7820s	here will get some nice shots onto stash
7823s	actually tags him up all the way into
7824s	his white HP but still holding strong
7829s	here worthy doesn't seem all that
7832s	excited to give up this positioning that
7834s	he's established just yet and for good
7837s	reason it's a pretty nice aerial
7839s	view GE us and SH now great position
7842s	here zon's already starting to hold more
7845s	Center than the last game so this will
7847s	be a very much different terrain than
7850s	what we just saw in the last game that's
7851s	going to be a probably a warm welcome
7854s	for these Western teams that don't seem
7856s	to get very lucky
7860s	often but as we know it anything can of
7862s	course happen
7865s	here it's got to be so scary sliding
7867s	over the ice just then you're just
7868s	hoping that no one's going to be able to
7870s	catch sight of you but
7873s	Cooper not sure he's even fully aware of
7875s	the fact that zagu and pppo are based
7878s	just a little bit more
7880s	towards interior of this jungle trench
7885s	Miro following to behind Cooper these
7888s	teams trying to make sure they don't
7889s	stray too far from each other but still
7891s	wanting
7892s	to make sure of the fact that they are
7894s	collecting the resources they
7897s	need because we saw just how congested
7900s	that last game was especially with the
7902s	way that zone was pulling so viciously
7904s	over the water so much of these teams
7907s	were just getting trapped in inside of
7909s	that mid layer
7912s	territory meanwhile the rift island is
7914s	going to start to formulate here jumping
7917s	just outside of re and
7919s	rituals perspectives there they can be
7922s	the first to take a stab at it and if
7923s	they secure this I mean surely top 25 is
7927s	locked in the bag as they were in the 76
7931s	Point threshold range of total points so
7934s	they can get a big 15 here with the
7936s	elens and some placement they will be in
7938s	the top 25 it could be done in dusted
7941s	here as there are only five games but no
7944s	instead they say hey look let's go for
7946s	the uh full Rift get straight to the top
7950s	no zip line for us I don't know which
7952s	was riskier but it works out at the end
7956s	there able to Juke out some of those
7958s	distant shots in the air and being the
7961s	first ones to actually touch down on
7963s	Rift Island does mean they'll be the
7965s	first to try and make use of those bonus
7968s	objective points with the capture Island
7969s	point but again Reen ritual I mean who
7973s	did we see last game on the rift Island
7975s	it was Thomas babuka well guess what
7977s	they got eliminated super early by Kata
7979s	and aers now it doesn't seem as though
7981s	there's anyone posing too much of a
7982s	threat but Baka and pars they've been
7984s	fighting for as long as the game has
7988s	started it seems yeah it's still chubs
7991s	team too chubs was looking at them
7994s	before it seems like he's given them a
7995s	problem on the rotate into the zone and
7997s	look at the lost of Bryce because Bryce
7999s	was Fallen at some point or another as
8003s	they've made their way to this position
8005s	here but at this point it almost seems
8007s	as though Chubs is just trying to waste
8009s	Baka and par' time trying to force them
8013s	into expending some of their resources
8015s	some of their splashes and heals that
8017s	they might not have wanted to let go of
8020s	otherwise and again it's still early on
8023s	bars goes into the box he's going for
8024s	the full push Bak is here to back him up
8026s	and this is what happens you sh the
8028s	hornet nest and you might get stung and
8031s	luckily for him he will escape somehow
8034s	some way barely sliding his way out the
8037s	side there haa has a different goal in
8040s	mind though he's going to go around the
8041s	outskirts here no stranger to the Zone
8044s	continues to play with it but ouch that
8047s	surely wasn't a part of the strategy
8049s	here as chubs 2 stood
8052s	behind tough spot to be in now but look
8055s	at chub's builds they're running
8057s	incredibly low he's actually going to
8060s	Forfeit that height positioning but it's
8063s	not like Baka empires have any idea but
8064s	now chub seemingly under pressure from a
8068s	team slightly further out he still has
8070s	to make his way in through the zone as a
8072s	solo not sure if he'll find a re van
8074s	opportunity either this late in what a
8077s	spot to be in now if your canat and aers
8079s	even more pressure as they only scored
8081s	zero points in game number one the first
8084s	team to be fully
8087s	eliminated but not humiliated they do
8090s	have a true chance now finding tags here
8092s	now to Thor and
8094s	bolts of course some of Na's best there
8097s	too very few can say they've wielded the
8101s	pickaxe of Champions but hold up jump in
8103s	with colen foki who's already gotten
8105s	elimination this is actually a full
8106s	finish that they picked up potentially
8108s	onto Camy and now SE is by himself my oh
8113s	my what a tough spot to be in for Camy
8115s	and CTI of course didn't pull the luck
8117s	of the draw game one and now game two
8120s	not going in their favor necessarily
8122s	here could we be seeing them a lower
8125s	bracket
8126s	push it's the fact that SEI and Camy
8129s	already had to deal with one Nuance at
8132s	the start of match number two wait wait
8135s	no way he gets the Save Right Ste going
8138s	for it might make it to Cami in time but
8140s	unfortunately the rocket Ram speed just
8143s	not enough having the reboot card though
8146s	talked about how difficult it can be to
8148s	to look for that reboot B opportunity
8149s	but it might actually be the intention
8152s	from SEI at this point because it's a
8155s	lot easier to make it into that end game
8157s	if you have your duo with you that is
8159s	right well last game we saw buga make it
8162s	work as a solo with no threats this time
8164s	SEI says no I'm not going to end game by
8166s	myself he's going into the storm for
8167s	reboot let's see if he ends up working
8169s	out meanwhile quei and voo continue to
8171s	farm their surge tags here desperately
8173s	in need though 145 damage above that
8176s	protection is not going to to be enough
8178s	not for long at least they're
8180s	recognizing the potential threat
8183s	looming here comes the rotate another
8185s	sniper in hand here so Veno really
8187s	flexing and exercising his sniper play
8189s	here it's Canada who's in front of him
8191s	they got to be
8195s	careful Vina though taking his time with
8199s	the approach as you would expect at to
8202s	keep him fine for as much of a Fragger
8203s	as he is oh no trouble though for
8206s	threats here got a nice knock it seems
8210s	might be able to find the double finish
8214s	but still an on doing everything in his
8217s	power to delay as long as he can but
8219s	this storm is so
8221s	problematic threats trying to see if he
8224s	can finish the job now onto Anon he
8226s	wants this refresh of materials from
8228s	both Suns and Anon found to get
8230s	something for his troubles at this
8231s	point gold sharp to pump Prime ready to
8235s	go that right side Peak and it was
8238s	nearly a Miss there for threats but he
8240s	will be able to capitalize close out
8243s	another elimination secured
8246s	here and that's going to be Oshi taken
8248s	down by NA if it wasn't for that
8250s	overshield he was done he had two
8253s	eliminations worth there that's 100 HP
8255s	in siphon and he ended with 86 Health by
8258s	the way surely the map doesn't quite add
8260s	up so he needed a little more that we
8263s	couldn't see if it was that overshield
8264s	that kept him alive there my gosh how
8266s	close that
8267s	was
8268s	well for q& D rapid here Middle East two
8272s	of their finest here time to get on into
8275s	this new Zone here long rotate to
8277s	makeing it's going to be a tough one for
8280s	them meanwhile out of the top five here
8282s	only three Duos remaining here in game
8285s	two for strokey and Kylie down and Shari
8288s	Vision
8289s	view down there see on the
8293s	right on the bright side though for J
8296s	and Rapid did see the with that
8298s	stormchaser augment so that's definitely
8300s	going to benefit them a decent amount
8303s	they continue to look for those
8304s	rotations konky and GRS on the other
8306s	hand cir plants doing the job as far as
8310s	getting some health and shield regen is
8313s	concerned but definitely still need to
8314s	wait around see if they can get more but
8317s	unfortunately when you are this far
8319s	below the damage thresold
8321s	320 and then some to work with as far as
8324s	damage is concerned and that number only
8326s	growing bigger
8328s	yeah that's not enough they need a they
8331s	need a lot more coming up quite short
8335s	here but I mean hey I like the strategy
8337s	of course these are going to continue to
8338s	replenish they can bounce back and forth
8340s	but at what speed can they stay alive
8342s	here now trying to rock it out trying to
8346s	wait it
8347s	out there it is really starting to run
8349s	thin on time now eventually the math
8351s	will catch
8352s	up one false move and they are down and
8356s	out seems as though they're really
8358s	hoping that some of these other teams
8361s	might just get elim all of a sudden
8363s	because we have seen circumstances where
8364s	teams might be relatively far behind on
8366s	surge but Dean gets elim and then the
8369s	Gap isn't as big as it initially seen
8370s	But for Vico and pink they've got a
8373s	whole another mess to cover only 18
8375s	below damage threshold so the pressure
8376s	is definitely on right now but it's on
8379s	pink SE is the one who's going to clutch
8381s	up here when it matters and although he
8384s	may have saved Camy unfortunately it
8387s	does seem like he has to continue to
8389s	ride this one out it was definitely
8390s	worth it though because at the end of
8392s	the day they picked up eliminations and
8393s	he picks up two more now putting up at
8396s	four here so this is still a game that's
8399s	worthy of earning some at least some
8402s	points right remember at a very very
8404s	early finish in game number one if
8407s	there's anybody that knows how to play
8408s	the low ground it's definitely going to
8409s	be Ste as well so tarp being through as
8413s	a
8414s	solo while difficult isn't necessarily
8417s	imp possible but man with some of these
8419s	teams that are looming just outside of
8421s	where he's currently situated it is
8424s	going to be tough and T mer
8426s	stash they're going to be Crossing just
8429s	next to se and SE he's going to have to
8431s	continue trying to play from that far
8432s	back side of the zone and meanwhile Alex
8434s	still has high ground
8437s	there just for hod here up next door Big
8441s	Shots going out teams in a distance here
8443s	hoping to pull Zone
8445s	but Z hero put in the shot shot here man
8450s	gari four
8452s	El gari definitely with the four
8455s	elimination so far and they're just
8458s	continuing to see if they can add even
8461s	more to that number because even with
8462s	four eliminations being only 13 above on
8466s	that surge damage threshold just goes to
8468s	show you how aggressive this Lobby has
8470s	been definitely a a close one there
8474s	meanwhile re finds another elimination
8476s	there worthy who had The High Ground get
8477s	knocked by her okay so they must have
8479s	over Peak from their position and now
8482s	they've been taken down that could be a
8484s	potential huge swing could Middle East
8486s	be winning game number two so far they
8489s	are setting themselves up surely to do
8491s	so seti rotates across voo and quey
8493s	already trying to do this backto back
8495s	run backto back number here and look
8498s	hero is trying to make their way up but
8501s	the resistance up top is Veno and quezy
8504s	if there's one thing that quezy and Veno
8506s	love to do is it is take hyp by that
8509s	eighth Zone and it's something that
8511s	they've done excellently throughout two
8513s	games so far but again they still have
8514s	to maintain it can't count your chicks
8517s	before they hatch sort of mentality as
8520s	Canada in the elimination feed seems to
8523s	have found pus ey
8525s	snazy as well
8528s	seemly as though na definitely striking
8531s	back Paka par still
8534s	alive re ritual still alive even okus is
8539s	up right now saw him mixed in the feed
8541s	those are a few of the na competitors
8542s	that are up I do wonder where is the
8544s	though is he was also inside the top 10
8547s	if teams can continue to keep up that
8549s	pacing there but meanwhile the story
8552s	right now is how far can CI push this
8555s	here that's it rocket RAM usage out
8558s	45 that 49 damage above the surge now
8562s	halfway through material this is a tough
8563s	spot to be and here's the omzo look mid
8566s	to high ground here moving moving all
8568s	the way across beautifully done in clean
8571s	execution on the rotate here he actually
8572s	takes down middle Eastern's hero there
8575s	so that was that second to High Ground
8578s	team and now they just have to deal with
8579s	quey and Veno if they could do just that
8581s	they will be the kings of the top it's
8584s	almost like dealing with a final boss at
8585s	this point as far as quezy and Veno are
8587s	concerned but so long as they're in the
8589s	match teams are going to have to look
8591s	out coold though with Acorn doing an
8594s	excellent job taking out Sphinx and Oyo
8598s	that's going to clear things up for them
8600s	as far as these immediate dark layers
8602s	are concerned set though again the fact
8605s	that he is still kicking despite being a
8608s	solo for so long here MDF what a
8612s	fantastic display of his experience I
8614s	just can't wait till we get another
8615s	listen in later because you know Cammy
8617s	and SE are putting down the comms needed
8619s	here to navigate through this game so
8621s	effortlessly making it look easy
8623s	meanwhile on the low ground here's
8624s	Middle East bahad here representing four
8627s	elims right now what a big spot to be in
8630s	showing us just how good they really are
8633s	and let's again not forget this is the
8635s	Global's best tier joining us for the
8638s	upper bracket you had to perform in the
8641s	upper tier of the 50 to be here today
8645s	kada Falls inside the top 16 there very
8649s	far pushed for him but not good
8651s	enough yamz and Rise just doing such a
8654s	great job leading the charge on the low
8656s	ground at the front side of the Zone
8659s	just doing their best to cut off
8661s	everybody that keeps trying to Traverse
8664s	into their territory as now yamon will
8667s	meet the same fate as so many others so
8669s	far SE though still managing tarp his
8673s	way through but running so incredibly
8674s	low only has eight builds make that six
8677s	left to his name hoping that he can find
8679s	a straggling refresh anywhere the one
8682s	who's going to find that refresh is fad
8683s	he finds okus there straggling in the
8686s	distance but hold up here's re no ritual
8688s	in sight by himself we already seen him
8690s	do it once he clutches up goes in and
8692s	takes down pars once friends now enemies
8695s	here on the stage meanwhile seti says
8698s	hold up you want hype for free not when
8700s	I'm in the lobby down goes gearus in a
8703s	quick trade there but shie comes to the
8705s	rescue here for his teammate and he is
8707s	the new king of hype for a second but
8708s	Acorn cold representing for na not known
8712s	for the big elens but so far the plac
8714s	some points exactly where you expect it
8715s	to be here's yzo yo clap from the side
8719s	here rise left to do it by himself he
8721s	cannot flirt with the storm here acorn's
8724s	clutching at the moment acorn's trying
8726s	to do what he can he's got that auto
8728s	Maven primed and ready but at the same
8731s	time even with the maven Auto he's not
8732s	going to be able to miss a singular shot
8735s	he has hardly any HP to work with and he
8738s	consider the shield that he's missing
8740s	he's doing a great job so far continuing
8742s	by time only one build left though this
8744s	next moment has to be his best pixie w
8747s	doesn't see it coming as Acorn finds the
8749s	elimination he needs just enough builds
8751s	to keep going up absolutely clean
8753s	elimination there sorry now looking for
8755s	it they have not eliminations Acorn goes
8758s	all the way up needs to come on down
8760s	knows where his opponent is and he's
8762s	looking for him but the zone is ticking
8764s	gets right into it he knows he's got a
8766s	couple opportunities here it's All or
8767s	Nothing Now One Shot will be it but no
8770s	it won't be enough stillo four
8772s	eliminations in the second place there
8774s	and Sh TI home the second game now
8777s	alongside garas zi nearly playing spoly
8781s	there for Sherry and garas but even with
8784s	zti having eliminated gear out Sherry
8786s	doing a phenomenal job to clutch things
8788s	up and we've got Frankie standing by to
8790s	get into their
8791s	minds that was quite the performance how
8795s	did you feel in those final moments of
8797s	that game great and what was going
8801s	through your mind because you had an
8803s	American flying up into the air getting
8806s	the information of you but you had the
8808s	Better Health in the
8810s	situation how do you feel clutching in
8813s	front of all of these
8815s	people amazing amazing that's a perfect
8819s	word let me come over to you gas what
8821s	was it like watching CH in that
8822s	situation it was great I mean uh anyway
8825s	like in this final situations I already
8827s	knew we have so many points we are
8828s	already like basically qual so I was
8830s	just chilling and I I believed in him I
8833s	knew he he he will win it I love this
8835s	vote of confidence we're basically
8836s	qualified
8838s	two games in so are you already thinking
8840s	about Sunday uh not yet but yeah I mean
8844s	I think we are qu so let's let's like
8846s	maybe keep focused on on Sunday right
8848s	absolutely but also focus on the next
8851s	three games because obviously you want
8853s	all of these Duos to fear you what sets
8856s	you apart from the competition um I
8859s	think just good strategy good
8861s	communication in Duo yeah I think that's
8864s	all well we definitely saw the strategy
8866s	pay off
8867s	but congratulations on the victory Roy
8869s	Al GE and Cherry
8875s	everyone man oh man to compete on this
8879s	stage in and of itself is a is an honor
8882s	but to get a victory Royale in a
8884s	circumstance like this with a crowd this
8886s	electric that is something else yeah it
8889s	really is I mean these guys land in that
8890s	sort of AA so it's a very much a Home
8892s	Zone for them but they made it count
8894s	we've seen teams that haven't had that
8896s	sort of lot you could say actually pop
8898s	off but these guys they made it count
8900s	when they did get the Zone yeah and not
8901s	only did they grab that Victory Royale
8903s	but they did it with double digit
8904s	eliminations I did not expect to see
8906s	that so early on in the competition they
8910s	pretty much were grabbing eliminations
8912s	as soon as the game started and by Zone
8915s	8 they had four eliminations but they
8917s	were able to kind of hold that low
8919s	ground for so long and clean up the rest
8921s	of the lobby they deserve their VR it
8924s	was a battle of solos there in the end
8925s	as well I think I saw five solos right
8927s	there at the end all battling it out and
8930s	that's what we love to see from this
8931s	it's solos clutching up on the big stage
8933s	and that's really really not easy so
8935s	great job from Char to make it happen
8937s	well if we're going to talk about solos
8938s	clutching up then then we got to talk
8939s	about SE my goodness from the start I
8942s	mean we saw them go down early in game
8944s	one we knew that they needed to do
8946s	something a little different in game two
8948s	we've got to watch their drop where they
8949s	went for the window of that Barn in
8951s	frenzy fields and it looked like they
8953s	had a pretty easy uh 50/50 there but C
8957s	did end up going down in that fight and
8960s	they were able to make it come back
8961s	against dasis and stain but then not too
8964s	much later we saw foki and Kylie trying
8967s	to go for them as well and if I'm not
8970s	mistaken I think pink also was starting
8972s	to try and make their way down but then
8974s	said oh wait no no no that's SE and
8975s	Cammy I'm going to turn around right now
8976s	yeah you're absolutely right I mean we
8977s	saw seti in that end game this was crazy
8980s	he tried to go for h i just so this guy
8983s	crazy he was like you know he was like
8985s	an autopilot high high ground I mean oh
8987s	no I think honestly I think it was a
8990s	great play I think that there was so
8991s	much chaos going on in the low ground
8994s	that they weren't expecting anyone to
8995s	try and take High Ground seti positioned
8998s	himself just on the side you can see
9000s	that they weren't aware of that SEI was
9002s	going to be coming in onto them and
9004s	grabbing that one elimination it did
9006s	eventually lead to his you know demise
9009s	but he was still able to grab four more
9011s	points as well as kind of weaken the
9013s	other players in the lobby yeah I did
9015s	want to highlight a couple things for us
9017s	first in that number one spot rich and
9019s	re re and richual whoa I'll come back to
9021s	him in just a second but just as a
9023s	reminder Sherry and gas and I'm sorry if
9025s	I'm uh I'm sh if I'm mispronouncing the
9027s	names I'll see myself out I'm so sorry
9031s	I'll myself someone else on the Des yeah
9032s	can we get min Miner you take over um
9035s	still though a huge Victory Royale from
9038s	the duo and I kind of just love the way
9040s	they kind of play this right you can
9042s	kind of tell even just after these two
9044s	games these games are so hectic they're
9047s	not anything like the games we're used
9049s	to seeing right A lot of these other
9050s	regions Na and E which we typically
9051s	broadcast you can see like even though
9054s	there's chaos there's a lot of control
9055s	right okay well I know we're going to do
9057s	this and we'll position ourselves in
9059s	these last two games it's just chaos
9061s	right either no build or everyone's on
9063s	Mad low HP where everyone is one shot to
9066s	the other in this case coming down to
9067s	the 1 V one it is so hectic on this
9070s	stage I mean in this situation we've
9072s	talked about it almost seemingly all
9073s	year when quezy and Veno aren't on
9075s	height in that end game it's anybody's
9078s	game we saw seti trying to spoil the
9079s	party up there forchan garas on height
9081s	he didn't quite do that but he did take
9083s	out one of them and of course that was
9085s	Char that was gir so Char hat to solo
9087s	clutch from High Ground of course that's
9089s	what's going to win them these games
9090s	we're seeing it time and time again High
9092s	Ground is going to win these teams the
9093s	games and because quezy and Vena weren't
9095s	there The High Ground was a lot more
9096s	free it was it was indeed but I do want
9098s	to talk about the duo that we were
9099s	looking at for just a moment there re
9101s	and ritual course here we go Kelly all
9103s	right listen all right they're doing a
9106s	very good job job right now that might
9108s	be why they're in first place and
9109s	they're utilizing everything that
9111s	competitive fortnite has to offer such
9113s	as Rift Island getting those 15 points
9116s	and that is actually what's going to be
9118s	pushing them into that first place spot
9120s	but also look at the placements they are
9122s	currently tied with cold and acorn who
9125s	are some of the most consistent players
9127s	in the world yeah they definitely are I
9129s	mean it was always a moment there where
9130s	they were boxing up below that Rift ir
9132s	and they were like I mean nobody's
9134s	nobody's going up for it uh is is
9137s	I guess that's our Island will take it
9140s	that's what we like to see I mean yeah
9141s	that's what re's all about he's one of
9142s	those players that will play at SM of
9143s	course we've seen so much aggression
9145s	from them even in this end game there
9147s	are so many moments in that I think this
9148s	is what makes competitive fortnite on in
9150s	person so great is that when re makes
9152s	these crazy plays hopping in the Box you
9154s	can feel the energy you can feel the
9155s	crowd just go wow how has he gone about
9158s	that and that's what he's all about but
9159s	we can't um take ritual I mean he's
9162s	doing a great job as well he actually
9163s	had more eliminations than re there he
9166s	did go down but you know re is not going
9168s	to go down without a fight even as a
9170s	solo here grabbing some much needed
9173s	refreshes and being able to kind of
9175s	bully the low ground here I love this
9178s	play style right he's almost Fearless we
9180s	actually saw something very similar from
9181s	Baka and Pars in the last game right one
9183s	of them dropping down to one HP but it's
9185s	the confidence it's like it doesn't
9186s	matter what situation we're in we just
9189s	have to go for it if we're eliminated
9190s	that's fine but let's go for it now re
9193s	making that work is wild and I think
9197s	especially for him he's someone that for
9199s	a long time especially when it back when
9201s	it was NA East na West he kept saying
9203s	things like I want to go up against
9205s	these other regions because I I want to
9207s	prove that I have what it takes to
9209s	compete I what a better place to do it
9211s	right he's he's making the crowd happy
9213s	he's making us happy making the team
9214s	happy in first place SP as well right
9216s	there at the end we saw the player
9217s	actually going for the medm he said no
9219s	you're not having that medm I'm J
9220s	straight in there and the reaction from
9222s	the crowd was so cool at that moment
9224s	well I already mentioned them but Acorn
9225s	and cold also had had a great
9227s	performance as well and I mean I love to
9229s	see na on top Minnie what's going on I
9231s	mean na on top here this is a this is a
9233s	difficult one for them but you know I I
9235s	like the way they've adapted their play
9236s	style and of course they're doing very
9237s	very well at the moment we can see this
9239s	going through in this uh in this later
9240s	stage of the game I think there was a
9241s	moment in this end game where they were
9243s	trying to look up for that High Ground
9244s	didn't quite happen for them but these
9246s	mid to low ground layers is what they're
9248s	known for it's what they did so great in
9250s	major number one and as I said earlier
9251s	they've actually adapted their drop spot
9253s	Lev said it so well in that mid game
9254s	segment we saw them actually going
9256s	further away from Pink and vco which is
9258s	something I didn't expect to happen I
9260s	thought they just go for a fullon 50/50
9262s	it's day one why not and of course it's
9264s	working out for them and acor doing such
9266s	a great job solo clutching we've seen
9268s	him do it before and he's done it again
9269s	such a clean elimination there and you
9271s	know that they're feeling good going
9273s	into game number three and third spot
9275s	and at some point I mean looking at the
9277s	points and kind of calculating it maybe
9279s	our top three have kind of already
9281s	solidified themselves into Grand finals
9284s	obviously crazy things can happen right
9286s	I mean we've seen our top team teams be
9288s	eliminated on drops so that might not be
9291s	solidified just yet but still they have
9294s	to be feeling even more confident going
9297s	into the next three games absolutely and
9299s	uh you know we obviously we have
9301s	thoughts and perspectives we actually
9303s	have vivid standing by with Community
9305s	favorite reddish Viv what she have to
9308s	say I told you guys I was going to be
9311s	coming from the lounge throughout the
9313s	weekend this time around we have redish
9315s	joining us a fantas fantastic Creator in
9317s	the fortnite space and she told me that
9320s	this is actually her first time
9321s	experiencing an event as a fan so tell
9324s	us all how has it been experiencing the
9326s	global Championship so far I've honestly
9329s	been watching I think for the last three
9332s	years but as you said first time
9333s	watching from audience it feels
9335s	incredible I'm seated right next sorry
9338s	guys sorry uh we actually have to go
9339s	back to the desk so we're going to toss
9340s	it back to Zeke and the
9343s	crew don't worry I will find a way to
9347s	talk with you soon don't you worry
9348s	reddish don't you worry uh man this has
9352s	been such a an incredible start to the
9354s	day the first two games of the global
9356s	championships especially in the upper
9358s	bracket Kelly you said something that
9359s	interested me you talked about these top
9361s	three and how they potentially might
9362s	have already qualified right right what
9364s	we saw kind of at a quezy and Veno was
9366s	they had this strong start and it's like
9369s	okay well remember top 25 what do those
9371s	points look like after one good game a
9374s	Duo could very well just qualify right
9376s	they might just get a good game with a
9377s	couple VR or a couple eliminations
9379s	rather and it might be just enough it
9382s	definitely might I think for now these
9384s	teams that are in this sort of top five
9386s	top three realistically you have to
9389s	think that they have got it in the bag
9390s	but as you mentioned Z Anything Can
9392s	Happen they've got to keep their foot on
9393s	the gas cuz not only is it really really
9395s	good to of course be at the top of the
9396s	lead board it's also really really good
9397s	practice really good to be in this
9399s	environment what are these other teams
9400s	from these other regions going to do
9402s	because who knows come Sunday it could
9403s	be anyone's game well we're talking
9404s	about foot on the gas we got to talk
9406s	about Cammy and seti there going up 21
9408s	placements obviously going down early in
9410s	game number one that's going to put them
9412s	in the second page of our lobby list but
9414s	we got to talk about SEI using the
9417s	rocket Ram once again that seems to be
9420s	where the utilization of this rocket Ram
9422s	is going launching High into the sky
9425s	seeing where the rest of the lobby is I
9427s	love this and yes by having the rocket
9429s	Ram you see that a lot of these teams
9431s	are forgoing that third heel which can
9433s	be incredibly beneficial but it just has
9437s	so much more utilization than I think I
9439s	initially thought and it just shows how
9442s	good this you are individually we talk
9444s	about them so often as Camy and setti as
9446s	a collective but we have to remember
9447s	these guys are both incredibly talented
9450s	players as solos we've seen them in
9452s	dream hacks come first and second and
9454s	they're just like a Duo that have just
9456s	decided to play in that solo event so
9457s	that's what we love to see from this Duo
9459s	and I like to see the fact that we can
9460s	have trust in seti trust in Camy to
9463s	clutch up in the big moments cuz they're
9464s	not going to be nervous and you know
9465s	what else we have trust quezy and vo
9467s	going for heye of course if if it's not
9470s	them it's the others it it's there's so
9472s	much more now I promised you an
9473s	interview with redish we're going back
9475s	to vivot in the Creator Lounge let's do
9477s	this and we're back sorry about that
9479s	guys I accidentally did too far of a mic
9482s	drop earlier ended up breaking the
9484s	microphone but I'll introduce her again
9485s	it's going to be redish a fantastic
9488s	Creator in the fortnite scene and like I
9490s	was saying this is actually her first
9491s	time out at an event being a fan so let
9494s	us all know how it has been experiencing
9496s	the global Championship it's been
9498s	phenomenal I was saying earlier but you
9500s	didn't hear that I've been watching
9501s	every single fncs for like the last 3
9503s	years I think but this is my first time
9505s	watching from an audience I couldn't
9506s	make it to to the US last time and it's
9509s	been crazy I'm sitting right next to
9512s	gentlem mates the the French people and
9514s	they go crazy every two minutes the
9516s	audience goes crazy and also I have to
9518s	mention the first game as a gxr
9520s	supporter was pretty wild we had malib
9522s	buuk of Spawn and claim the island and
9525s	then quey won so it's been just amazing
9528s	to watch as a fan and supporter and
9530s	fortnite lover so yep yeah awesome I
9532s	love the fact that you're kind of
9532s	bringing up who's been doing well
9534s	throughout the day of course this is the
9535s	upper Breer we have 25 teams going
9537s	directly into the finals after the day
9539s	give us a couple names that you think
9541s	are going to be you know towards the top
9542s	of that leaderboard after the end of the
9543s	day we still have a few games left so I
9546s	have a feeling almost everyone kind of
9548s	still has a chance um but yeah GX are on
9551s	top I I hope que and maluka will do it
9553s	hopefully I didn't just jinx them and I
9555s	don't know so many teams are doing
9556s	amazing we have cold and acorn pink and
9559s	B oh City and Kami they're making a
9562s	little comeback so it's it's super
9564s	exciting to see U who's going to who's
9566s	going to make it in the end but all of
9568s	them are amazing and super talented at
9570s	this video game yeah awesome and for
9572s	anybody that would love to check out
9573s	your content reddish let them know where
9575s	they can find you redish on Twitch or
9577s	I'm reddish on Twitter there it is thank
9579s	you guys so much for tuning in thank you
9581s	reddish for the insight and we're going
9582s	to be tossing it back to the desk with
9584s	Zeke and the crew
9587s	thank you so much reddish you're
9588s	fantastic as always now as we kind of
9591s	draw closer to the next game start we
9592s	kind of wanted to highlight a couple
9594s	things really quickly Miner you kind of
9596s	called this out for us and I wanted to
9597s	take an opportunity to talk about it
9599s	zagu and pep clip they had a very
9601s	interesting storm surge strategy in that
9604s	last game yeah they did and I think this
9605s	just encapsulates what Lan events and
9608s	Global events are all about we never
9609s	know what these other smaller regions
9612s	could be pulling out of the Hat when it
9613s	comes to strategy and what I saw there
9615s	in that end game was actually or that
9616s	mid game actually to say Zach and pppo
9618s	actually got a knock they were able to
9619s	carry the body towards some of the slurp
9621s	mushrooms keep healing the player on
9624s	those slurp mushrooms which of course
9626s	that benefits them because they can keep
9627s	tagging up the player to get some more
9629s	storm surge damage we've seen storm
9631s	surge have such a big impact so far in
9633s	these first two games and if you don't
9634s	have enough damage it's going to result
9636s	in your elimination that's what I really
9638s	like to see from this those guys playing
9639s	out strategies I haven't seen before
9641s	just keeping on healing up the player I
9642s	love it leave it to pppo and Zago to do
9645s	that and also leave it to quezy and Vino
9647s	who had a pretty good strategy as well
9648s	early on to get those storm search tags
9651s	we actually saw a sniper on their load
9652s	out which is not something that we
9653s	typically see people tend to go for the
9655s	twin mag and then they also had two
9658s	different spots for their splashes there
9661s	so by having more I think it was around
9662s	10 splashes being able to not just heal
9665s	but also rotate quickly which is part of
9667s	the reason why we saw them be able to
9669s	set themselves up for Success towards
9671s	the end game and I say that as queezy
9672s	goes down but still being able to make
9675s	it all the way there is going to get
9677s	them those much needed placement points
9679s	yeah trying to get ven to clutch twice
9680s	in a row it's it's you can't do it again
9682s	surely but no I I like to see that wait
9684s	until Sunday yeah wait he's waiting keep
9686s	it all in the tank he brought it out in
9687s	game one but no not not a bad game at
9689s	all from this duo we saw them trying to
9691s	set up for what we're expected to see
9692s	from them let's see if they can continue
9693s	that's right I'm excited to see game
9695s	number three so let's kick it on over to
9697s	our casters to take us in thank you so
9699s	much Zeke and that's right game number
9702s	three nearly ready for these players to
9705s	hop off the battle but but monster we've
9707s	been seeing some pretty interesting
9709s	things so far throughout the first two
9710s	games and hold that thought till the
9712s	game because the battle bu is good to go
9714s	match number three right
9724s	here all right we heard you make some
9726s	noise it sounds like you are ready for
9728s	game number three I am2 remember there
9732s	are only five rounds of fortnite here
9734s	today so this will officially solidify
9737s	the halfway mark to start things off
9741s	though we have to begin here at the
9743s	frenzy Farms Camy SEI versus Das and
9745s	stain we've seen this go either way we
9747s	know that kyx is nearby as well Kyrie
9750s	here so you got to be careful meanwhile
9752s	K is the weapon first he's looking for
9755s	the tag and they're doing a great job
9756s	they actually have the left and right
9758s	here find just a little bit of time here
9760s	set a also couple of weapons at his
9763s	disposal tactical DMR infiltrator pump
9765s	as well stain trying to do his best to
9767s	pressure from the bottom of this Barn
9769s	it's going to be stain actually
9770s	eliminated first a nice tag team
9772s	appearance there from Cammy to get the
9774s	backup necessary and that's going to be
9776s	stain and dat eliminated yet again so
9779s	early on MDF and we're already in game
9782s	three yeah this time extremely quick
9785s	they secure the eliminations here
9787s	meanwhile seven men in Cal gamer versus
9791s	King potentially unfolding here I do
9794s	know Canada is battl as well seems like
9796s	he was taken down and eliminated by a
9800s	different Duo so we are already seeing a
9804s	very huge Miss up meanwhile King he will
9806s	show you why he is one of the best let's
9808s	not forget what Cal gamer had to say he
9810s	said himself that he does not believe
9814s	King has what it takes he thinks King is
9816s	a bit overrated but I beg to differ we
9820s	have seen what he can do in person we
9822s	have seen what he can do in just clean
9824s	head to heads in a box fight type
9827s	environment he's incredible it's
9829s	literally what king established his name
9831s	on was his prise when it comes to box
9835s	fight match opportunities here again
9838s	King looking for his chance to take down
9841s	Cal gamer Cal gamer actually going to
9843s	look for a brief Retreat here though at
9845s	the Relentless Retreat seems as though
9848s	he wants to try and look for some better
9851s	Weaponry or possibly even just looking
9853s	for a different position altogether yeah
9856s	upgrade would be important and massive
9858s	there especially since he's running out
9859s	of material there the shotgun meanwhile
9861s	zagu pepo they had the knock but they
9864s	didn't get the Finish that's going to be
9865s	a big mess up big mistake big
9867s	opportunity lost but zaku finds another
9869s	tag here
9871s	meanwhile looking for the big opener
9874s	another one there okay chipping away but
9876s	nothing significant this time that is
9878s	massive though for skits and sord that
9880s	skits was actually able to find that
9882s	revive In the Heat of it all as Now
9885s	Peppa
9886s	zagu few shieldbreaker emps curious to
9889s	see what zagu actually chooses to do
9891s	with these he's going to opt to try and
9894s	maybe apply some more pressure onto
9895s	skits and sorf with them or if he just
9897s	going to hold them for the time being
9898s	but skits now fully aware of the fact
9901s	that zagu is trying to break down his
9903s	wall continuing to replace build after
9906s	build gets with the peak zagu with the
9908s	damage
9911s	taken it's going to be skit and Sor
9913s	still looking to try and capitalize on
9915s	this circumstance
9916s	now be careful though backing themselves
9918s	up into an indestructible
9922s	[Applause]
9923s	corner and you can
9926s	hear the crowd really starting to turn
9928s	up right now big augment though that was
9930s	just picked up that Rarity check could
9932s	go crazy depending on how believe it was
9937s	Skits that might have opted for it saw
9940s	him one of those common
9943s	weapons zagu
9946s	back to full shield though but did have
9948s	to expend both of those big pots and
9950s	this battle's taking quite some time
9952s	business turret quickly taken out zagu
9956s	tried to place there pressure on
9958s	skits oh I think he's going to be
9960s	feeling really confident after that one
9962s	but zagu now completely out of material
9964s	here he does have to be careful his
9966s	teammate finds a little bit too so Pepa
9968s	goes in fully boxes up it's all going to
9970s	come down to hit the shots and he does
9972s	zagu showing us why he is one of the
9975s	best
9976s	coming directly out of the region of
9979s	Asia representing all the way for Japan
9982s	and my oh
9984s	my take a look now with Kylie and
9987s	foki man they're just mixing things up
9990s	constant tra for the most part but for
9992s	stroi and Kylie here at Stevie
9995s	Springs South side of the map seems to
9998s	be working out relatively well for them
10000s	so far having that elimination already
10003s	and now that's going to alleviate a
10005s	decent amount of pressure here for
10006s	stroke Kye they don't necessarily need
10008s	to fully push in just yet they can
10011s	really wait to see how they want to
10014s	actually choose to try and reapo here
10016s	but they're not the only team to mix
10018s	things up a bit as now Misha and Tini
10021s	just above Bryson chubs and they might
10023s	be looking for an opportunity to find an
10025s	elim or two here this is pretty
10027s	interesting because tin and Misha
10028s	definitely have been having a tough time
10030s	against uh bak and pars but Bryson chubs
10033s	have been jumping in that battle as well
10035s	it has been a three-way engagement here
10038s	at the Shady stilson
10041s	around so Tini and Misha trying to mix
10043s	it up saying all right what can we do
10045s	different how can we adapt here clearly
10048s	they made it to the upper bracket right
10050s	but having a tough time so far might be
10053s	looking like a Saturday appearance if
10054s	they can't turn up and turn up
10058s	soon meanwhile
10061s	Meo might be stuck in an engagement
10065s	against Char
10067s	is well a horse Retreat actually
10072s	Cooper very accurate some of those twin
10074s	mag shots Miro leading the charge up
10077s	against this solo and it seems like it's
10080s	only a matter of seconds before sh is
10083s	completely collapsed upon doing
10085s	everything in his power to try and stay
10087s	alive just one moment longer see if
10090s	there's somewhere that he can build off
10092s	to to actually Scurry away and Escape
10093s	but Cooper and miror they are Rel ESS
10096s	they refuse to let this opportunity go
10099s	and it's going to be another Four Points
10101s	by the way of elim as they finally close
10103s	out onari you got to respect that right
10105s	there Cooper all the way with the
10107s	initial opener and then the call out
10109s	setting up Meo for successes he said hey
10112s	look there they're one trust me miror
10114s	with no hesitation jumps directly in
10118s	there things are looking pretty good
10120s	though so far for threats and boa over
10122s	at sanguin sweets does seem as though
10124s	they manag to get their way into the
10126s	Vault that kind a stinger SMG certainly
10130s	going to come play a pretty big part
10133s	there for threats whenever they do
10135s	decide to
10136s	engage a few more battles later
10140s	on cloudsky and GS though a team that we
10143s	really saw in quite the position last
10145s	game it was really their surge strategy
10148s	that seemed to be a little bit lacking
10151s	in game number two so now the mentality
10154s	here for girls and clown if they want to
10155s	find some points want to work their way
10158s	up even further on that leader board
10161s	just try and cement themselves into that
10163s	top 25 but they've got to work through
10166s	some other teams before they can find
10167s	themselves there yeah and work through
10169s	those crash pads as well having them
10171s	work against them for a second there so
10173s	Clowny couldn't unfortunately join
10175s	grolls on the push to the top so cost
10177s	them a fair bit there but all in all
10180s	they have things on the
10183s	control a good hype positioning at least
10185s	that can definitely help a lot as far
10189s	as establishing some surge damage is
10191s	concerned meanwhile inside of Rumble
10194s	ruins you have rub up K ax Force hiding
10199s	inside of a bush and a pretty common
10200s	strategy as well for players to look for
10202s	those tag
10203s	opportunities with some of that safety
10207s	inside of the Bush yeah now that single
10209s	elim right there is onto Cooper I know
10210s	we just hyping up Meo and Cooper's big
10213s	eliminations they picked up but look
10215s	her's Now by himself in the distance
10216s	there so Cooper caught off guard out in
10218s	the open there and away from his
10221s	teammate here we get to see heroics
10224s	Thomas and
10226s	maluka they are up they are standing
10229s	which means they have survived the drop
10231s	clearly and they are working their way
10234s	towards the grand finals Here and
10239s	Now massive stuff though from alabuga
10241s	and Thomas given that they had to sit
10243s	out for game number two because of
10245s	canata and AER so for them to be able to
10248s	play makeup time now just adding to
10250s	their total Point count for the
10253s	day cuz again we are in game three of
10257s	five so this is I think technicality of
10261s	a halfway mark for a lot of these teams
10263s	and this is where you can really start
10265s	to see the consistency that needs to be
10268s	maintain come into play yeah one might
10270s	say this is the most important game of
10272s	the tournament here between game one and
10274s	game three I mean either you set
10277s	yourself up for success or you turn
10278s	things around now and come out a Victor
10282s	and by that I just mean top 25 right
10284s	that is the goal today and then of
10287s	course
10288s	Sunday get as high as possible make as
10290s	much money and be the winner of that $1
10294s	million first place
10297s	prize here we got pink and vco I know
10299s	we're hyping them up definitely a team
10301s	that has had a lot of success although
10305s	again playing off the scrappy drop but
10307s	look they find themselves finally
10308s	fighting acor and Cole true but they had
10310s	Cal gamer and seven man also on the
10311s	opposite of them it seemed as though
10313s	they were kind of sandwiched in that
10315s	position so might be very tough
10318s	circumstance for them to actually work
10320s	around and as well here in the heart of
10322s	Mega City got flexie way up top on the
10326s	building G is seems as though they had a
10330s	successful battle because flexie with
10332s	one
10333s	elimination looked as if he just got the
10336s	opportunity to revive grie there as well
10339s	but now from this aerial point of view
10342s	opportunities to use these grind rails
10343s	if
10344s	necessary for a quicker rotation but
10348s	Mega City seems to be relatively safe
10350s	for the time being and the way fie keeps
10353s	looking down leads me to believe that
10355s	he's got some form of idea that Suns and
10358s	Anon are the team directly below him
10361s	just outside of the mega City King and
10363s	phaser cam here
10365s	very interesting they've had a very long
10367s	track for the Relentless Retreat till
10369s	here no elim just yet but this is a
10372s	perfect time to go and catch up 11 so
10374s	let's hear the
10375s	word thank you monster like you see no
10378s	elims we obviously saw at the start of
10380s	the day C Gamer had a lot to say about
10382s	faser and King's ability he thought he
10384s	weren't too good and King said the same
10386s	he thinks they're not as good as they
10388s	say they are but these two teams have
10389s	been going head-to-head not full
10391s	engagement but still both teams looking
10393s	to try and set up for fights where
10395s	possible we see them sort of pinching
10397s	and peeking towards each other at times
10399s	and what's happening is that they're
10401s	both disengaging right neither team
10402s	currently sit in that top 25 so one of
10405s	these two teams is going to have to
10406s	start to step it up if either of them
10408s	are going to be making our of Relentless
10410s	Retreat and making that Vault
10414s	useful thanks so much Levan for that
10417s	breakdown on whether or not it's going
10419s	to be gal gamer 7 man or King and phaser
10422s	that's going to be the team that finally
10423s	breaks through from that initial drop
10427s	spot engagement but again it with teams
10429s	just actively choosing to disengage have
10432s	to believe that part of that reason is
10434s	because they don't want to risk being
10436s	early eliminated in match
10439s	three Acorn cold though they've got some
10443s	eliminations on the mine cuz they want
10445s	pink and vco if they can find it cold
10449s	now applying some pressure onto the
10450s	backside Here Pink and vco certain to
10452s	have to keep an eye out for it cold
10454s	though just continuing to move around
10455s	some of these top tier Builds an acorn
10459s	cold slight Lull in the
10462s	action as they try to make sure that
10465s	their approach is as methodical as
10466s	possible here at frenzy fields and of
10469s	this Duo here the Highlight player was
10471s	definitely acorn in match number two
10473s	where he really went the distance in the
10476s	end when it mattered but I'm sure if he
10478s	can do it one more time it should be all
10480s	but solidified inside that top 25 this
10483s	has been a great showing so far and
10485s	again contested half the loot he would
10488s	expect half of what he would really want
10490s	so to take out pink Ando to send them
10493s	back to the lobby to not see them on
10497s	Sunday would be
10499s	excellent they could make a run as Grand
10501s	Champions but what's interesting is that
10503s	at frenzy keep in mind Cal gamer and
10505s	seven man were there as well but they
10507s	weren't when we last checked in just now
10509s	so have to imagine that C Gamer s men
10512s	recognizing hey this just is the type of
10515s	Engagement you want to take right now
10516s	just like I drop as a solo trying to see
10519s	if he can gather anything from Rift
10522s	Island if he's able to get this capture
10523s	Point uncontested as a solo that will be
10526s	absolutely
10528s	incredible yeah and you know it's worth
10530s	15 points so it's definitely a position
10533s	you want to jockey for not a single
10535s	other team has decided that they want to
10536s	come up here this could be his lucky
10539s	graceful moment here but no there is a
10541s	Duo just above them cuz could ey drop
10545s	build a big enough base here to buy him
10546s	some of a flex potentially oh no it
10550s	seems like the team's actually
10551s	underneath okay but we jump in with
10552s	quezy quezy is hurt here voo pretty
10554s	healthy they have to double down
10556s	alongside one another it's Kylie and
10558s	froki Kylie and froki went South this
10561s	game had success down there and now
10564s	because of that inevitably it puts them
10566s	on the pathway the war path of Veno and
10569s	quezy that was a big shot though that
10571s	Kylie just landed onto Veno took down
10573s	his Shields almost entirely soo's going
10575s	to have to pause for a moment utilize
10579s	one of those legendary slurp jues to
10580s	make sure that he is at ample HP to
10585s	actually take this
10586s	engagement kyen now looking for where he
10589s	wants to try and make this finalized
10590s	approach but doesn't realize Veno has
10592s	managed to sneak up behind him Veno
10594s	making sure to return the favor of
10596s	Damage Done queasy as well starting to
10598s	create a little bit of a separation here
10601s	starting to see whether or not he could
10602s	try and pressure on the other side of
10604s	these build from me it's a nice pressure
10606s	application from this Duo all they've
10608s	got to do now is finish
10610s	it you know making Monaco very proud
10613s	here so far for the upper
10615s	bracket this fight now approaching that
10618s	time where you start to think uh how
10619s	worth it is it can we get out of here
10621s	safe and sound is there an exit plan for
10624s	us you have to assume they're feeling
10627s	the same way yep the demeanor says so
10629s	and we call it just right they want to
10631s	get out of there as much as we want to
10633s	see them rotate so on they go meanwhile
10636s	the same can be said about pick and be
10638s	I'm sure they're thinking okay what's
10640s	the game plan here aor and code no
10641s	better but at the same time aorin and
10643s	cold are in such a better position it's
10646s	in their best interest to actually stay
10648s	here hold them out and not only that the
10650s	team they want to take out exactly plus
10652s	pink we saw his bills just now in
10654s	comparison to cold it is a night and day
10657s	difference I mean cold with 90 builds to
10659s	still work through meanwhile pink I
10662s	believe last trck didn't had around like
10663s	16 18 that's practically nothing they've
10665s	invested so much time here now that they
10668s	don't really have another option other
10669s	than to close this fight out because
10671s	they need the material they need the
10673s	refresh of a cold and acorn acorn cold
10676s	but cold gets him in the box and puts
10678s	down the other as well pink and voco
10680s	shut down and sent back to the lobby and
10683s	that is the best team for them to
10685s	eliminate they already have pretty much
10687s	top 25 now sealed in the bag they are in
10691s	third place coming in this picking up
10693s	these elim here it was so good kind to
10695s	run it back one more time boxes him up
10698s	finishes him off this is how excellent
10701s	cold is in the pocket well played it
10704s	just did not seem as though pink and boo
10707s	ready to tackle cold from that position
10710s	but being towards that frenzy field side
10712s	they're going to have a great
10713s	opportunity now for acorn and Cole to
10715s	make an approach towards the Zone from
10716s	the dead side rotation so curious to see
10719s	how that actually pans out for them
10720s	later on but as for rise and
10723s	yo
10725s	solid as ever in terms of applying
10727s	damage they're the only team that
10729s	finished top five in every major of the
10732s	three Majors that is an exceptional
10735s	position to put yourself in really
10737s	showing how flexible they are season to
10739s	season and also shows you they might
10741s	just be the team this weekend they might
10744s	just be that team but let's jump into
10746s	the action here maluka hurt 3 HP forced
10750s	down and the pressure
10752s	unrelentless coming in from the Middle
10755s	Eastern team rapid here really pushing
10757s	back they've already claimed
10759s	Thomas malaba wants nothing of that the
10763s	me boy says Hey listen you're up sit
10765s	down we got this absolutely insane
10768s	though just how quickly maluka was able
10772s	to escape from that position because it
10774s	really looked as if C and Rapid were
10777s	about to finish off this Duo but with
10780s	Thomas being out of the picture maluka
10783s	Granton we know that he's capable of
10785s	making those solo clutch circumstances
10787s	happen but with so many power hitters
10790s	left in this lobby as a team that's solo
10793s	Spot Not Looking the best Vanette car me
10798s	absolutely scary scary Duo right
10800s	here some of eu's greatest very
10804s	hardworking Duo here takes Tini tin and
10807s	Misha just haven't caught a break
10809s	here rotating all the way down from the
10811s	north side coming up short here now out
10815s	fragmented apart Misha is looking to
10818s	replenish himself here but the storm
10819s	surge is active BC just says hey you
10821s	know what I want nothing to do with this
10823s	it's already looking pretty tough I'm
10825s	going to just go ahead and rotate on out
10826s	of here they're going to crash pad their
10827s	way across and that should be all she
10832s	wrote and effective rotate it's it's a
10836s	lot of map to cover though for some of
10837s	those North Side teams the way that
10841s	things have been breaking down but still
10845s	van and car me again doing a great job
10848s	utilizing those crash padses Cammy and
10851s	seti together as a Duo that's something
10854s	that we haven't really seen too much of
10855s	at this point in the game curious to see
10858s	how their end game goes now that they're
10860s	both up and running they're checking
10862s	bushes they're looking around they're
10863s	trying to see who is lingering about
10866s	they already have themselves their third
10868s	elimination and they're sitting on top
10871s	of the loot so this is a fullon refresh
10872s	for someone who was up on High Ground
10874s	here so this is an excellent find for
10876s	them meanwhile looking at the top five
10879s	here richel and re are leading the
10881s	charge by a fair margin the only team on
10884s	their heels now cold and acorn as geis
10886s	and Sh have been sent back to the lobby
10888s	but again if you take a win right now I
10890s	mean you have just about done enough
10892s	it'd be hard pressed for you not to get
10895s	out of the upper bracket and go straight
10897s	to finals with a victory yeah we're
10898s	definitely starting to see a pretty big
10901s	Point disparity yeah from our top 10 to
10903s	even our top 20
10906s	competitors gri and Flix though one more
10910s	time another revive it's going to have
10912s	to go through but this time it's going
10914s	to be g b turning the favor onto his
10917s	teammate fie with that me Mist as well
10921s	seems flexie is going to be just fine
10923s	for the time being but they still got to
10926s	keep pushing forward they still got to
10927s	keep trying to move in try and stay
10929s	ahead of these zones wherever possible
10932s	but two revives into the MCH already
10934s	monster you can tell that they're
10935s	definitely having some tough times with
10937s	making these rotations and I know we're
10939s	jumping in with Monaco's merach and
10941s	Falcon T here but I want to give a lot
10944s	of credit to Baka pars who have a great
10947s	position over the lobby right now Bird's
10948s	ey view they are one of the few teams
10950s	poised up for potential High ground and
10953s	they have just continued to show us what
10954s	they are made of they are now officially
10957s	slipped their way into top five really
10960s	working their way up but hold up T's got
10962s	a lot of problems knocking on his door
10964s	ping has got knocked in the mix there so
10967s	while he was focused on T other teams
10969s	started to look inwards and not sure T
10971s	understand that there was a down body
10974s	there or maybe he did and might be
10978s	interested in trying to pursue it
10980s	thinking about it Kyrie hoping he get
10982s	sing in time but it's going to be too
10984s	much from T Interruption on that revive
10987s	now it's stas stach seeing if they can
10990s	finish with somebody else that started
10992s	they managed to get the material refresh
10994s	item refresh as well if they want it
10996s	there for the taking and T will swap out
10999s	for that double legendary SL
11001s	jues but for stash and T still powering
11005s	through some of these builds that have
11007s	already been pre-established here and
11009s	that's just a freebie for them yeah it's
11011s	it's all in all a net positive you get
11013s	the damage that you need you start
11015s	inching your way towards this end game
11016s	then looks like it is going to be a
11018s	Slappy Shores finish here it's going
11019s	just outside the mountain there ven's
11021s	already marked up the position they want
11022s	to be in it's that Natural High Ground
11024s	on the back side here the ice
11026s	capsule but again bakaar is looking
11029s	downwards on them putting that infinite
11030s	upwards pressure here not making it look
11033s	easy at all here is going to have to
11035s	concede for a bit it's cost him a lot
11038s	he's going to have to take some of ven's
11039s	inventory as well so Veno trusting in
11041s	quezy to lead the rotate
11044s	here it's all about that middle though
11046s	at this point for quezy especially when
11047s	you know that you're having some
11049s	pressure being applied to you from The
11050s	High Ground more durable your builds the
11052s	better as far as understanding though
11055s	which way he wants to tarp
11057s	quezy recognizing the fact that he's got
11060s	his chance right now just keep building
11063s	up and again with it being metal it's so
11065s	difficult for teams to really take a
11067s	second to try and chop them out just yet
11069s	quey going to look for The Connect onto
11071s	some of these other builds but dropping
11073s	down ever so slightly still maintaining
11076s	the height overall though and that's
11078s	what I do best limited builds to just
11080s	get there connects it to a structure in
11083s	the distance but Cammy and SE are
11084s	looking backwards and they're saying no
11086s	not today not in this Lobby I want to
11088s	fight for it as well we need a big game
11089s	here we need it now and all of a sudden
11092s	now they are the most resistant on the
11095s	front side of the Zone here but if they
11097s	don't put pressure back we know what's
11099s	going to happen Veno quezy will run with
11104s	this set and Camy are careful keep in
11106s	mind where their builds were starting to
11108s	go towards I mean with the direction
11110s	that quezy headed at least it almost
11111s	seems as they might headbutt each other
11112s	on The High Ground the moment here but
11114s	inste it's Acorn bit sneaky with the
11117s	Crash Pad but he's continue to hang
11119s	around he wants that front side of the
11121s	Zone but hanging just on the edge of it
11123s	and I just love how we're seeing again
11125s	Na's best and eu's best right back to
11128s	back here two different perspectives two
11129s	totally different layers Acorn and cold
11132s	again just excellent low ground teams
11135s	playing to what they play best and
11137s	they're doing it well here meanwhile you
11139s	do of course have your other teams
11141s	fighting for height
11142s	so next
11144s	play to watch unfold here but we jump
11146s	with pars and end game for pars here too
11149s	no
11150s	Baka the least amount of Els we've seen
11152s	so far but it is a single one so so far
11154s	the three they put up numbers every time
11156s	now we jump with Muzz and paper turning
11158s	online right now six eliminations could
11160s	this be their game one big pop up will
11162s	put you up in that top 25
11165s	surely it's been a relatively quiet day
11167s	from MZ and paper so far so this could
11170s	be a massive moment if they're able sees
11174s	it sitting on the low ground though
11176s	Acorn and cold they can tell there's
11179s	players trying to make their way around
11181s	the edges next to them two crash pads
11183s	remain here at acorn's disposal cold
11186s	following closely
11188s	behind Cammy and Sh though they seem to
11191s	be making an idea all their own oh this
11194s	is crazy from the backside here they
11196s	find the tag and Vino's hurt and this
11198s	might be the new High Ground Cammy SE
11200s	coming in out of nowhere and they swing
11202s	things around quezy hurt Vino's fully
11205s	healthy but no things Chang so quickly
11208s	Acorn and cold finish him and now que's
11211s	by himself but still excellent end game
11213s	for them they're going to be happy with
11214s	a top 10 meanwhile paper and mzz
11217s	continue to force their way in here
11220s	eight elims now probably the most that
11222s	are alive at the moment trailing behind
11225s	another team and paper's going to fall
11227s	there and unfortunately mu to follow
11229s	suit but mer stash still up and Kicking
11233s	set though with a massive hit and that's
11236s	the back to backs now onto robot with
11239s	the materials refresh it might not do
11241s	any good he's not able to break into the
11242s	Zone in time Acorn instead will be here
11246s	to play cut off as now mer stash forced
11249s	Underneath It All lar pick as well
11251s	living as a solo this is looking like
11253s	Acorn and Cold's game for the taking and
11255s	acorn's doing an excellent job
11256s	pressuring with a breach of shotgun make
11257s	a sure no one's got a chance to breef
11258s	but lpx is still going he's found two
11262s	that's 11 elimination is fck of theow
11265s	but na takes the game Acorn and cold the
11269s	shrug he's making it look like it was
11272s	exactly his plan it's just too easy if
11276s	you're Acorn and cold but the best part
11279s	still is that moments away from figuring
11283s	out just how the day is actually going
11286s	to wind up and we've got our very own
11288s	Frankie down on the floor to see what
11291s	they have to say I do I'm so excited to
11293s	talk to these guys cuz they're known for
11295s	one of the most consistent placements in
11299s	all of the games that they play and you
11300s	haven't disappointed us so far what's it
11304s	like Cole taking a victory Royale on day
11306s	one here in Copenhagen um I don't know
11308s	it's an insane feeling I mean this guy
11310s	is just I don't know this guy's on
11312s	something else like this guy is the best
11313s	player I think I'm serious yeah doing it
11316s	for Canada we saw you in the air nearly
11319s	clutching the victory Royale in the
11321s	previous game and now you've taking it
11323s	one step further for you is it a bit of
11326s	a dream to perform so well so early in
11329s	the competition of course I mean like
11331s	getting ahead early is always the best
11332s	and no pressure now you know yeah you're
11334s	not feeling the pressure you're pretty
11336s	set on Sunday already why do you think
11339s	you are able so frequently to take down
11342s	the competition I mean I'm just playing
11344s	with the best player it's not that
11346s	hard you have been preparing for this
11348s	all year long you qualified way back in
11350s	major one how do you feel like the game
11353s	and the way you've had to play it has
11355s	changed over the past year um I mean
11359s	Everything's changed you know we kind of
11361s	did good in the beginning then we had a
11363s	little downfall and everything's
11364s	changing but we're adapting pretty well
11366s	you say downfall what do you mean by
11368s	downfall because you did place Top 10 in
11370s	all three majors in North America this
11372s	year that you played so for you what's a
11375s	bad day anything on their first anything
11378s	under first well it's looking like
11380s	you're probably going to have a very
11382s	good day now I got to send back to the
11384s	desk very quickly though before I do Aon
11386s	said such nice things about you code
11388s	have you got a message for him this guy
11390s	is actually the best IG on the game I'm
11392s	not kidding I'm not kidding this guy
11394s	just his his brain is just no one can
11396s	compete well I can hear Aon saying stop
11399s	stop stop over there so I will stop on
11400s	your behalf and we'll head back to the
11405s	desk big congratulations to Acorn and
11408s	cold finding themselves the victory
11410s	Royale now before we continue quick
11412s	shout outs to Vivid and L who will be
11414s	hanging out with us on the analyst desk
11415s	here for the remainder of the day my oh
11418s	my sometimes I you know rather I didn't
11421s	expect any Duo to win a game in this
11424s	fashion and that it looked so easy uh
11428s	that game was a roller coaster and for
11430s	multiple reason really and you know when
11433s	we we tune into the global championships
11434s	the one thing that obviously everybody
11436s	is excited about is The Clash of play
11438s	Styles the best at what they do and
11440s	throughout this game you know we saw a
11442s	couple of height changes but between you
11443s	know arguably the best height team in
11445s	the world quezy and Venom then I was
11446s	like oh look at this Acorn and cold
11448s	they're on the low ground that's exactly
11450s	where they Thrive and then uh yeah they
11452s	ended up on The High Ground to win the
11454s	game yeah that's what I've been looking
11455s	at Vivid right you're looking at the
11456s	teams and seeing if the things that they
11458s	do so well in their region can that
11460s	translate here on the global stage for
11461s	cold and acorn the answer is absolutely
11464s	yes they have been dominating on these
11466s	layers and I think the big thing here is
11468s	that you know you look at these guys
11469s	they're clearly in the element they're
11470s	feeling so confident cold when he's at
11472s	his best
11474s	what a player I I honestly it's almost
11476s	hard to describe the levels right major
11478s	one when they won the fncs in their
11479s	region I genuinely think that Peak that
11482s	cold had hit as a player individually
11484s	one of the best we've ever seen from
11486s	anybody right he was just on a whole
11487s	different level and he's showing that
11488s	here today right now I could not agree
11490s	with you more now what I'm curious about
11492s	are the standings let's take a look
11495s	together let's see how things are
11496s	unfolding remember we're trying to end
11498s	the day in the top 25 go straight
11500s	through to Sunday a uh Acorn and and
11503s	cold here in that number one spot
11505s	breaking 200 points uh all right this is
11509s	day one guys save some for Sunday this
11512s	is what I love to see you know I gave a
11514s	little bit of a sneak peek as to who I
11515s	was going to be rooting for earlier on
11517s	in the day and it was acor gold it was
11518s	the na boys and I'm very happy to see
11521s	them up there this honestly has big
11522s	implications for all spawn that right we
11524s	got to remember that they're contestant
11525s	so now they can play play a little bit
11527s	more aggressive in that sense yeah if
11529s	you're if you're pink and voco you're
11531s	looking at these guys going hold on a
11532s	minute we letting them run away with
11534s	things we need to maybe think about
11536s	putting a bit more pressure on and
11537s	making these games a bit more difficult
11539s	for them I'm personally looking at some
11541s	of the players beneath them right que
11543s	and Veno just below we saw how hot they
11545s	started the day they're going to be
11546s	looking above them thinking okay you
11548s	know these guys are setting the tempo
11549s	but we're going to do our thing up on
11551s	height while they do their thing down
11552s	below it's been weird for quezy and Veno
11554s	especially right because we're seeing
11555s	them so consistently going into these
11558s	end games in positions to play out
11559s	height very very well right you know
11561s	it's it's typical stuff for them but
11563s	they having a couple problems right
11564s	where a bunch of their other EU
11565s	compatriots are very much making things
11568s	difficult for them right seti and Camy
11569s	flanking them in that last game
11571s	typically quezy and ven very aware of
11573s	their flanks that's not something that
11574s	they often get caught out but but this
11576s	time around we seeing what happens sity
11577s	and Cameo there waiting for them gosh I
11579s	always have to have so much respect for
11581s	camon and C right because I was honestly
11583s	looking at their position and it was as
11585s	that seventh Zone rotate was coming in
11587s	they were actually towards that castle
11588s	split they were based up on top of it
11589s	and I was like wow they're on The High
11591s	Ground they have a very good position
11592s	and then Zone showed and it went all the
11594s	way North and I was like yeah there's no
11596s	way this is going to end up being a good
11598s	game and look at this Cami said they
11600s	just surprise every single time and in
11602s	such good fashion I mean you mention it
11604s	quezy and Veno they're usually aware of
11605s	their flank how did Camy and CTI pull
11607s	this off and and it's not just playing
11609s	it off right when they're actually in
11610s	the position delivering being able them
11612s	to actually you know hit the shots of
11614s	course they did get chopped out on
11615s	height eventually right it was Aon and C
11617s	that did that so so well but I think the
11619s	big thing with Canyon set is obviously
11620s	we saw how they started the day and I
11622s	think it's fair to say they brushed the
11623s	dust off their shoulders right they
11624s	didn't allow you know lose enough spawn
11626s	early on to sort of derail their
11628s	competition they understood hey look we
11630s	just got to stick to the fundamentals
11631s	get back in the game we can beat these
11632s	guys off spawn and now they are
11634s	delivering in the game and one more
11636s	Point here about camon CTI you know we
11638s	talked about the all small situation
11639s	with Acorn and cold now it's similar for
11642s	Camy and CTI right they're they're
11644s	pretty chilling when it comes to the
11645s	points just wild and to think this all
11648s	began like their day started with
11650s	basically no points on the board right
11652s	and their counter cards Vino and quezy
11655s	getting the victory Royale and now
11656s	they're sitting there attacking them on
11658s	High Ground these this is the story we
11661s	all came here to see at least I did uh
11663s	right into the loving Embrace of course
11665s	of acorn and cold like ah yes bring me
11667s	points that's what we want today uh you
11669s	talk about this being a roller coaster I
11671s	feel like so many things happened in
11673s	this game I mean we saw HRA by himself
11679s	take Rift Island uncontested at what
11682s	point he was getting shot thinking oh
11683s	yeah they're going to jump they can tell
11685s	nope 15 points and you might be thinking
11687s	Zeke right like oh it's it's so easy
11689s	right oh he's up there as a solo why
11691s	don't we just go up there and contest
11692s	them I mean it's got to be the nerves
11694s	right there's so much information that
11695s	these players are very good at hiding
11698s	idb somehow got that situation off where
11700s	he was like hey I'm just going to sneak
11701s	up here and I'm pretty sure later on
11703s	actually cuz as we know reboot van on
11705s	top of the island ended up using it to
11707s	go ahead and reboot his teammate so
11710s	smart absolutely insane L left
11713s	speechless now we do have something
11716s	really cool here lined up it is actually
11717s	a listening to that game-winning moment
11720s	from aorn and cold let's take a
11723s	listen we're just going to crash back
11725s	and go not now though but like on the
11729s	RO got it you're going to jump on the
11731s	ramp
11733s	yeah I'm tring to slide yeah I hit it
11736s	good try to run run left run
11739s	left going deeper all too L ground I bu
11743s	the box for you as well nice good
11748s	job you good yeah I think so
11759s	yeah got
11762s	it for that one
11768s	py I mean I just have to say every
11771s	single time I get to to hear these guys
11773s	coms Acorn and cold are so composed so
11776s	chill you'd never think they're sitting
11778s	at a land you know the biggest land that
11780s	there is to play you know playing one of
11782s	the most difficult lobes that just there
11783s	chilling I think what impresses me the
11786s	most if you look at literally any esport
11789s	doesn't matter which one have your pick
11792s	professional comms sound like that
11795s	there's a lot of things he could have
11796s	been calling out both of them though
11799s	just sat there they only called out what
11801s	was most vital the most critical thing
11804s	in that moment everything else was calm
11805s	the moment they find a moment to strike
11807s	it's like okay let's actually
11808s	communicate in this moment and get done
11810s	what we need to do that's crazy I I love
11813s	watching honestly the professional
11815s	players that play at this level cuz you
11817s	know you know we're thinking about the
11818s	meta and there we have the Min crash
11820s	pads they're out now but it's not a lot
11822s	of Mobility right so you have to save a
11824s	lot of your materials and the way that
11825s	some of these Pro players do it we saw
11827s	it right there where they were kind of
11828s	talking through that rotate they're kind
11830s	of just running in the open a lot of the
11832s	times not building but they find those
11834s	timings and that's why they're so good
11836s	and and big props once again to to Acorn
11839s	right this is a player who you see how
11840s	cold is talking about him as an igl
11842s	saying this guy's brain is unmatched you
11844s	know he's he's you know the best player
11845s	whatnot earlier this year right when
11847s	they didn't do as well during major 2
11849s	there were doubts within their
11850s	relationship right you know it was you
11852s	know conversations about them
11853s	potentially splitting up and and I had
11855s	the chance to speed Tak on about and he
11856s	said look hands up that major was my
11858s	fault I was not up to P I was not up to
11860s	standard but I'm going to fix that and I
11862s	think it's safe to say he's fixed it
11864s	right you know you see the way they're
11865s	playing right now and things are clearly
11867s	in a much better place they're clearly
11868s	much more confident in each other and
11870s	that's always the key right you have to
11871s	be able to trust your teammate if you're
11873s	going to have success in a competition
11875s	like this that is why being Vivid are
11877s	good at fortnite when we play Zero
11879s	builds cuz I trust Vivid completely uh
11882s	now let's kind of focus in on here we
11883s	like to kind of discuss storm surge
11886s	strategies obviously y'all at home I
11888s	know I could use some help but something
11890s	that was we kind of saw in something we
11892s	saw in in game was actually re and
11894s	ritual they have a very interesting
11896s	storm surge strategy yeah placing very
11898s	very high up on the leaderboard right
11900s	now and it's not even necessarily about
11901s	the storm Sur strategy it's about using
11903s	their drop spot to their advantage
11904s	they're going to be dropping towards
11906s	creaky compound which is pretty Central
11908s	of the map and if we think about any of
11910s	the fortnite zones right usually most of
11912s	them will involve the center of the map
11914s	in some capacity in those early zones
11916s	and the cool thing about crey compound
11918s	look at all of these Hills that ritual
11921s	and re can take advantage of the fact
11923s	that they're Landing there means that
11924s	they get early priority to a lot of
11926s	those positions and every single game
11928s	they're going to make sure that they
11929s	base up on those High Ground positions
11931s	to make sure that any of the players
11932s	rotating through the center of the map
11934s	which by the way a lot of players like
11935s	to rotate through the center of the map
11936s	and make sure they can get all the tags
11938s	necessary for their storm surge and I
11940s	think an interesting thing to note and
11941s	it's big props to read here when you
11943s	typically look at discussions around
11944s	storm surge and the ability for people
11946s	to you know be effective in tags you
11948s	often go look controller players it's a
11950s	lot harder right long distance that aim
11952s	assist as strong re making it look easy
11954s	hitting every single shot bang bang bang
11956s	bang bang you don't care you don't care
11957s	he's hitting everything right and so big
11959s	props to re that's not an easy thing to
11961s	do especially under the pressure as well
11962s	we're at the global championships once
11964s	and for all so I think for for him to be
11966s	as doing as well as he is right now says
11968s	a lot about him as a player good sh
11970s	absolutely you guys are killing it you
11971s	guys are great I love yall all right
11973s	actually why don't we go ahead and check
11974s	out the Creator Lounge Kelly Link is

12098s	pool just being like what's up fortnite
12100s	fam it's great to see all of you from
12102s	different walks of life from different
12103s	aspects of the game all in a single
12106s	place uh how have you guys enjoyed the
12109s	competition so far yeah uh you know I
12111s	think the competition is delivering
12113s	completely for me right the atmosphere
12114s	has been absolutely amazing the crowd's
12116s	been going absolutely wild especially
12117s	when Thomas HD is on the screen I know
12119s	the M8 audience up there every single
12122s	time they're on the screen they've been
12123s	going crazy so shout out to everybody
12124s	that's here yeah n the atmosphere has
12126s	been unbelievable and to think you know
12127s	we got more days of this right coming we
12129s	got Saturday we got Sunday it's going to
12131s	get even more inside of here which I'm
12133s	very much excited about but you know
12135s	even in the server right in the game the
12137s	players have been delivering man I think
12139s	when you have a competition like this
12140s	where you have the Stak set so high you
12142s	know we're expecting the big names to
12144s	come out but they actually given us
12145s	performances you know that match up to
12147s	the status they have it is a special
12150s	special special day so I think uh
12152s	looking at all the players hopefully
12153s	these last two games continue to deliver
12154s	in that regard I saw the early the B
12156s	looking a bit too na for my Ling so hope
12158s	some more of the EU teams can can sneak
12161s	their way up there but of course this is
12162s	you know the the the upper bracket day
12164s	the the more important day will be the
12165s	grand finals to see my EU boys up there
12167s	yeah yeah no bias at all no bias 100%
12170s	bias course and I'm sure you guys are
12171s	wondering what's what's up with this
12173s	longer break well keep in mind we're
12174s	halfway through the day so we have to
12175s	get the players a break get them kind of
12177s	get of step back kind of refresh the
12179s	mentals to come back stronger in these
12181s	next couple of games Frankie is actually
12183s	standing by right here right now with
12185s	Meo and Cooper let's take a listen I am
12188s	and this is such an impressive Duo
12189s	because they came together for major 2
12191s	and qualified for globals back then by
12194s	coming second so of course I had to talk
12197s	to them currently in 24th position on
12200s	the leaderboard and Cooper this is your
12202s	first land are you happy with how things
12203s	are going so far I think we should be
12205s	doing a lot better in terms of on the
12207s	leaderboard but for my first land I
12209s	can't complain you know I'm having a
12210s	good time and I hope you do better so
12212s	how come you've become this fresh-faced
12215s	igl that everyone is saying such great
12217s	things about given that this is your
12219s	first landan um starting in a ja R is
12222s	really hard for me but I think playing
12223s	with Maro also with being a great
12225s	teammate I think I've improved
12226s	drastically and I hope I do better yeah
12228s	hope I do good why did you want to
12230s	become an igl um I being a Fragger I
12233s	feel like I never got a good igl and I
12235s	wanted to kind of take terms of being
12237s	the leader in a Duo and I just got lucky
12239s	to play with the best Fragger so well I
12241s	should talk to that best Fragger now at
12242s	mirror I apologize for leaving you out
12244s	in the cold as I've spoken to your
12246s	teammate for so long but you are
12248s	regarded as a veteran this is not your
12250s	first brodeo why did you want to compete
12253s	here with Cooper uh I think he's just a
12256s	good he's a good teammate he's always
12257s	grinding the game you know just that's
12259s	really about it honestly he's just fun
12261s	to play with good teammate and I don't
12263s	know it kind of have like a lot in
12264s	common in terms of like interest and
12266s	stuff so he's like easy to talk to about
12267s	things and like music and all that so
12269s	just easy you know have you got a
12270s	warm-up song that you listen to before
12271s	you go on stage uh ski by sexy red I do
12276s	not know the song but that is because
12277s	I'm not as cool as you two are so what's
12280s	the strategy now how are you going to
12282s	three groups try and guarantee that spot
12284s	in Sunday's Grand Final today yeah I
12286s	mean I'm not going to say too much cuz I
12287s	don't want to get dqd but I feel like I
12288s	really haven't had a fair chance of
12289s	playing fortnite yet and I think that we
12291s	just need a little bit more luck on our
12293s	side and we're going to be fine okay
12294s	well hopefully the luck will be on your
12296s	side thank you so much for talking to me
12297s	gentlemen I'll let you go and get some
12299s	food and I am going to bring in a a
12302s	Londoner in fact our only Londoner on
12304s	land so therefore I'm slightly bias cuz
12306s	I'm from London too if you hadn't
12307s	noticed by the accent pink currently
12310s	29th on the leaderboard how are you
12312s	finding things in Copenhagen so far I'm
12314s	finding it good despite our placement I
12316s	think we're not playing the best but I'm
12319s	finding it good yeah why do you think
12320s	you're not playing the best yet uh game
12323s	one we played well game two it was a
12325s	Minor error making a the whole game go
12328s	to waste but then game three obviously
12331s	contested by Acorn he was already
12332s	qualified in two games so he dedicated
12335s	game three to grief us so I think it'll
12337s	continue to do that for game four and
12339s	game five but that's the that's what
12341s	happens so far are you thinking you can
12343s	grief back then what how how are you
12345s	going to respond to this cuz you're not
12346s	the kind of guy who's going to back down
12348s	in a fight I mean at this point they're
12349s	qualified so no matter what we do
12351s	they're through to the next round
12352s	anyways so it's more so a thing where
12355s	got to let go of the gudge and just
12357s	focus on ourselves for now so they're
12358s	not in your head no not at all and how
12361s	are you finding things with vco because
12362s	you're a relatively new J you came
12364s	together for major number three and
12365s	you're pulled off what you needed to do
12367s	to make it to globals but this was a
12370s	surprising duo in some so so why do you
12373s	think it's managed to come together so
12374s	quickly um I've been very tough with vco
12377s	and he's like at the start he was a bit
12379s	annoying I'd say but more so now he's
12381s	more so making me proud so I think we're
12384s	a good Doo we compliment each other well
12386s	and I like playing with him he's a
12388s	really aggressive player how did you
12389s	manage to stop him pressing W in every
12391s	situation had to fake drop him I've had
12394s	to scream a lot I've had to do a lot of
12396s	things I've kind of mentored him in a
12398s	way but yeah pink I'm I'm looking for a
12401s	coach so I don't know if we can once
12403s	you're done with global you got the
12404s	spare of time with your hands are you uh
12405s	taking new uh new clients on no Dam it
12409s	well it's a great excuse It's a great
12411s	excuse darn it but I'm fine with it I'm
12413s	fine with it I'll just go solo uh thank
12415s	you so much for talking to me pink and
12417s	we will see you out on the battle pass
12419s	thank you
12422s	but thank you so much for those
12424s	interviews for the players uh Pink is
12428s	pink is always one that's very honest L
12430s	he's going to tell you what's on his
12432s	mind and there's nothing wrong with that
12433s	I don't think yeah honestly it's the
12435s	best policy you know I wouldn't have it
12436s	any other way you want people likee you
12438s	would would I ever lie to you that's
12440s	that's not the I never Li I never lie to
12442s	you look the one thing i' say about pink
12444s	right and Vos they're in a very tough
12446s	spot because like he just said aqu and
12448s	cold they're basically qualified now
12450s	right they could you know not play the
12451s	rest of the games and they'll be good to
12452s	move through to the finals these guys
12454s	aren't right and so if you're Acorn and
12456s	cold and these guys are contesting you
12458s	you're going to make their life as
12459s	difficult as possible you're going to
12460s	make sure you can do what whatever it
12462s	takes to to guarantee they don't have a
12464s	chance to contest you come Grand Final
12466s	time so if I was thinkink and be I'd be
12468s	not worried per se CU you know this isy
12470s	not a guy that's ever going to be
12471s	worried but I would start to be a bit
12474s	concerned yeah I mean you definitely
12476s	bring up some very valid points but I
12477s	think if anything has been proven by
12479s	some of these performances so far one
12481s	good game right one Victory r with a
12483s	couple eliminations is worth enough
12485s	points 100% to fly up that leaderboard
12488s	so they just got to win that spawn fight
12490s	one more time do you think they do that
12492s	though is is that the play trying to
12494s	kind of keep rolling the dice is it just
12496s	let's find somewhere else or let's just
12498s	disengage what do you guys think so it's
12500s	interesting right because pink is a
12502s	player that's very experienced when it
12503s	comes to being contested right you look
12505s	back all the way to chapter 3 season 2 I
12507s	believe it was it was contested by
12509s	maacha maluku when they were playing
12510s	together and they you know were
12512s	unbelievable right and and I remember
12514s	pink saying to me I've never experienced
12516s	that of Spawn right and and they got
12517s	demolished back then when he was playing
12519s	with anas but he learned a lesson right
12521s	he learned how what it takes to be a
12524s	good Osa team and he said to me he had a
12525s	lot of those sort of similar strategies
12527s	coming in to try and use against aor and
12529s	cold and so maybe now we start to see
12531s	him start to whip out some of the things
12532s	he maybe would have wanted to save for
12533s	Grand finals but use them now to secure
12535s	a spot for
12536s	final good stuff they are sitting there
12538s	on the bubble 29th Place remember top 25
12542s	will be the ones to move on to Sunday's
12543s	finals now if you find themselves at the
12545s	bottom 25 they still have tomorrow
12547s	obviously not the best situation to find
12548s	themselves in uh you know Vivid right
12551s	now 11 makes a great point if they're
12553s	kind of pulling out some of these
12554s	strategies that they might have to yes
12557s	they it very well could get them to
12560s	Sunday but if it doesn't that means that
12563s	they're going to go into tomorrow's
12564s	lower bracket and those 25 players will
12566s	have watched this they will have known
12568s	okay well this is what they're looking
12569s	to do yeah I mean very interesting
12571s	situation I I don't think anybody wants
12572s	to be in the situation that they're in
12574s	right now listen we're at the global
12576s	championships right these teams are here
12577s	for region if two games is what it takes
12580s	for them to actually go through through
12581s	to the finals I guarantee you that they
12583s	are very very well capable of it yeah
12585s	100% right again it is just a matter of
12588s	doing what they were able to do in that
12589s	first game right he said it himself that
12590s	first game they was good they were in
12592s	the game they looked good they looked
12593s	like a team that was going to continue
12594s	throughout the day to have pop offs but
12596s	unfortunately hasn't panned out that way
12597s	right have to get back to what that was
12599s	in game one and I I think it's very
12601s	possible for this team yeah so what you
12603s	kind of just also just touched on you
12604s	guys are just hitting me with the the
12606s	razzled DS right now that's what you do
12609s	um you know this is the global
12611s	championship
12612s	okay we're looking for the best duo in
12616s	the world there cannot be no any
12618s	question there has to be a Duo that
12620s	steps up and says we are definitively
12623s	better than everybody else so I feel
12626s	like at this point in time we can be a
12629s	bit more critical about some of these
12630s	things right and we kind of have to be
12632s	you know we can't just say well this is
12633s	a major you know you've got weeks two
12635s	weeks three you know you'll go to we'll
12636s	see in Grand it's fine no this is this
12637s	is the end of the line you know what you
12639s	know what Lan said it honesty is the
12641s	best policy right so I'm going to talk
12642s	about one of the favorites here right we
12645s	we took a look at a little bit of the
12646s	bubble right there and I saw 23rd Place
12649s	Thomas HD and maluka that is not a very
12653s	comfortable spot to be not at all not at
12655s	all and and obviously you know when when
12657s	you are the favorite there's pressure
12658s	that comes with that you've got this
12660s	crowd here that's making all this noise
12662s	for you if you are Thomas HD and malaba
12664s	you have to start thinking about okay
12666s	how do we get back into this right I
12668s	think a lot of them people saw them as a
12669s	favorite coming into this competition
12671s	because they are so good but things
12673s	haven't been easy right the Canada
12674s	versus an AES off spawn battle hasn't
12676s	been the simplest of equations for them
12678s	to solve and even you know beyond that
12680s	right actually when they are getting
12681s	into play out games the the formula it's
12684s	not quite clicking it's not quite
12685s	working that's right well I'm getting
12687s	word as much as I'd love to continue
12689s	this conversation games are ready to go
12692s	so let's get it up to the casters and
12694s	get us
12695s	prepped we are here this is game four
12699s	about to get underway and and I want to
12701s	give a huge shout out to S kit let's go
12704s	ahead and go to the battle bus cuz the
12706s	game starts
12716s	now what I was going to say is a shout
12719s	out to Cammy and seti they had a little
12722s	bit of a rough start to start the day
12724s	but they have shown it just takes one
12727s	big game to get yourself inside of that
12729s	top 25 and this being game four with
12732s	only one game left after this there's
12734s	only a few spots left for those bubble
12735s	teams to grab and we're looking at a
12738s	team that definitely needs a good
12740s	matchup for things to start picking up
12742s	for them pisai snazy starting to get
12745s	some shots from the sky but here at the
12749s	racetrack we've watched this for three
12750s	games now 2-1 in favor of Thomas and
12753s	maluka Canada trying to see what he can
12756s	do it's a double fire but Thomas for the
12759s	time being he's going to go down Canada
12762s	and aers looking like they could be in a
12764s	decent position here but it's maluka on
12766s	the wrap around of the reboot B trying
12768s	to make sure that he can keep Thomas and
12770s	his own hopes alive for this game number
12772s	four aers Canada so incredibly low with
12775s	maluka down a half HP now jumping on top
12777s	of the building the reboot van just
12779s	barely keeping the hope alive for Canada
12781s	and angers oh this is going to be a big
12783s	save his chance to get his HP back and
12786s	it down on to Canada he has no ammo left
12789s	this could be huge if aers could just
12790s	find way to just push up finish this off
12793s	but it's maluka who does it yet again
12797s	one of the few times where a tactical
12799s	DMR is going to look like the Saving
12802s	Grace here for malauka Thomas as well
12806s	with the immediate da up onto his boy
12808s	and for good reason because this score
12811s	it's already being telegraphed 3-1 now
12814s	in favor of Thomas and Canada and keep
12816s	it in mind excuse me Thomas malaba but
12818s	for aers and Canada they're literally in
12820s	35th fifth place and that's bound to get
12823s	pushed even further back now that's
12824s	where you start to feel the nerves and
12826s	you feel like you're in the danger zone
12829s	we got Cal gamer seven man going up
12831s	against King and phaser com yet again
12835s	this is where it's going to get heated
12836s	up he gets a little bit of a first
12837s	strike but doesn't really take advantage
12839s	of it and a quick reposition out of King
12841s	and vaser this is exactly what you have
12843s	to do but the rift does go off they're
12845s	trying to reposition and try to have
12847s	some claim towards that high ground but
12849s	they're not able to do too much they
12850s	have to concede Relentless retreat in
12853s	order to stay
12854s	alive right idea though sometimes you
12857s	just know when a fight isn't yours to
12861s	make happen and for seven man all his
12864s	ammo running relatively low with that
12866s	disengage from phaser seven men and gal
12868s	gamer now going to have ample time to
12871s	try and loot out Relentless
12874s	Retreat Slappy Shores action has been
12877s	relatively quiet we've seen a couple of
12879s	circumstances with t in yeah really just
12882s	nice surge strategy going for the most
12885s	part at this location but for TR like
12887s	and Chicho they've also had a relatively
12890s	quiet time so far yeah for them they
12892s	just got to start building up that
12894s	confidence cuz even though they'd have
12895s	the cushion that you could still fall
12897s	into day two we were just talking about
12898s	it that's not something you even want to
12900s	test anything can happen in that lower
12903s	bracket that's why it's Paramount for
12904s	these teams to qualify today give
12907s	themselves a break a chance to readjust
12909s	and buan thres is one of those teams
12910s	that's outside of that bubble and I
12913s	think that's something nobody would have
12914s	expected coming into
12917s	today one thing that we've definitely
12919s	notice from the past three games that
12921s	have played out so far threats Anda they
12923s	never been a Duo they've never gotten a
12925s	chance to actually participate in that
12927s	late game circumstance together so maybe
12930s	here in game number four seems as though
12932s	thre is on a mission to write his own
12935s	story as some nice tags on the coast
12939s	side just south of sanguin sweets a lot
12941s	of pressure being applied to the duo a
12944s	little bit south of them yep just like I
12946s	was talking about with Cammy and SEI
12948s	just one big game this could be the
12950s	start that Booga and threats need to try
12952s	to propel themselves if not to the top
12954s	of the leaderboard at least inside of
12956s	that top 25 and that'll give them that
12958s	chance to readjust ph's in Kos they've
12960s	been doing well so far as well and
12962s	that's something that you want to see
12963s	even if you're qualified already you
12965s	want to keep up the pace continue to
12967s	build that confidence cuz even though
12968s	you might have Saturday off you have to
12970s	be prepared for Championship Sunday $4
12973s	million on the line that's not something
12975s	to take
12976s	lightly and again I think it doesn't
12979s	necessarily have to be flashy but for
12981s	Thomas and malaba I'm going far I'm
12983s	going
12985s	far I got spot I got I'm I
12989s	think 6 wi I'm dead they both here he's
12992s	getting shot in the back though he's
12993s	getting shot in the back one is running
12995s	back to F and one they're going to get
12998s	for break after here yeah yeah yeah he's
13004s	alone nice get get yeah for Thomas and
13008s	maluka it's definitely looked pretty
13010s	flashy when you're going for that 50/50
13012s	when you're representing that there's a
13015s	reason why this is your POI at least
13018s	that they're going to be choosing to
13019s	drop at or they established drop spot R
13023s	track's almost feeling like a POI with
13025s	how well they have managed to just take
13029s	hold of it yeah and and I'm not
13031s	surprised it was a couple of Majors ago
13033s	where they were contested and I wouldn't
13035s	say it was the highest placing of a
13037s	contested team ever but it was one of
13038s	the highest placings in an fncs Grand
13041s	finals for a team while contested so
13044s	they've had that preparation throughout
13045s	the year and they're putting all that
13047s	preparation here to the test just like
13049s	Duke and edgy trying to pick up the pace
13051s	here they are your fncs grand finals
13054s	champions of the na region as well they
13057s	already started off with one elimination
13059s	so you know they at least have some
13061s	surge in their back pocket but as the
13063s	lobby and the games have shown
13064s	throughout the day you need more than
13066s	just some surge you need an ample amount
13068s	of surge in order to survive this game
13070s	and for Duke and edgy they need a lot of
13072s	points as well cuz you have to remember
13073s	they entered game four in that 46th
13076s	position so quite a lot of places to
13080s	jump up in the leaderboard if they want
13081s	to actually find themselves in that top
13085s	25 but right now leaderboard is the
13087s	least of for strokey concern right now
13090s	it is all a about surviving and maybe if
13093s	he's lucky finding an opportunity here
13095s	to look for a Pick Off onto Yumi because
13099s	for stroi if he's able to find this
13100s	knock or if he's able to just be patient
13103s	he might actually have a chance to look
13107s	for grabbing his teammate's reboot card
13110s	if he hasn't already full disengage it's
13113s	still plenty early enough in the game
13114s	where a reboot B opportunity could
13116s	definitely come up clutch especially
13118s	here with zone is pulling forward a lot
13119s	of those teams are going to be begin to
13121s	rotate whether they try to go to the
13122s	slow side or directly straight towards
13124s	the center that is going to be one of
13126s	the few safe opportunities you will have
13129s	as the augments are already beginning to
13130s	come out possible Rarity check and a lot
13133s	of these teams you might be saving some
13135s	of those augments as well but King and
13137s	phaser kame you saw them disengage out
13139s	of Relentless Retreat they're outside of
13141s	the top 25 so a game like this is
13145s	necessary to come out on top grab as
13146s	many points as you can and he's already
13148s	getting challenged for that High Ground
13150s	instantly gives up phaser and him are a
13152s	little bit too separated for my liking
13154s	and probably theirs as well Striker
13157s	though decent top down
13159s	overview but it's going to be axodus
13162s	with the
13163s	immediate sha trading of that big Shield
13167s	potion making sure that his teammate is
13168s	able to maintain as close to full shield
13171s	as possible ex do meanwhile hey you
13174s	might be looking straight but there's
13175s	plenty of teams sure to be looking at
13177s	you as well got to make sure that your
13179s	backside is covered
13181s	and that's going to be an immediate drop
13183s	down into the safety of their any tower
13186s	that they've managed to build
13188s	up phaser and King
13191s	though just outside of Zone just kind of
13194s	landlock for the time being as well on
13196s	this beach outside of Relentless Retreat
13199s	it does not seem as though they're going
13200s	to have a very easy time working their
13202s	way in n and you kind of saw them they
13204s	on the lead aboard 22 points overall as
13207s	it stands now that bubble that 25th spot
13210s	is at 58 points so it's not too far for
13213s	any one of these teams to really climb
13214s	up the pace but the usual Misha and Tei
13218s	switching up their drop spot not liking
13220s	how their games has been going so far so
13222s	they're sticking to what even qualified
13223s	them to the global Championship
13225s	themselves and that is these sneak
13227s	attacks they're going ahead and trying
13228s	to cut off somebody's boot path and take
13230s	advantage while they can and that's qnd
13232s	DX that they're going after and they
13234s	have a 2V1 for the time being and
13236s	they're wasting a lot of their resources
13237s	just trying to build for it cuz that is
13239s	the extra loot that they need need
13241s	instead of farming up at a drop spot
13242s	this is the strategy that they're going
13244s	to use but unfortunately enough their
13246s	opponent does get away he finds a way to
13248s	disengage so they're going to have to
13250s	figure out where else they're going to
13251s	get their loot from I don't know if that
13253s	was intuition by the way from or if
13257s	maybe some sort of audio Q might have
13259s	given things away there for Misha and
13260s	Tiny but they were certainly ready to
13264s	pull the trigger a little bit too soon
13265s	there and didn't let q&d actually fully
13268s	steep into the building and again it did
13270s	seem as q&d kind of recognize better
13272s	thought maybe the lot's a little bit too
13274s	free in this circumstance just a huge
13276s	beam from okus trying to go ahead and
13278s	get as much surge as possible I think
13282s	for someone like him he's been doing a
13284s	good job so far trying to pick up these
13286s	opportunities where he can and that's
13288s	the thing re and ritual probably didn't
13290s	even really see exactly where those
13293s	shots came from who was surrounded or
13295s	all around them and see they're going
13296s	towards the south side of the zone that
13298s	they have to be careful because as long
13300s	as they can continue to go south we saw
13301s	the Zone was pulling up so this will be
13303s	the congested side you already see in
13305s	the mini map there are so many teams
13307s	going ahead and grabbing their spot all
13309s	around him that's going to make it that
13310s	much harder but Misha Andi keeping
13312s	things on the Run gapon cash is going to
13314s	come up and that seven man and cow gamer
13317s	that they're trying to contest for it a
13319s	little bit of a mistake there with the
13320s	briefcase turret trying to go ahead and
13322s	use it to their advantage KY with a nice
13325s	shot from the side backs up towards his
13327s	teammate seven man cow gamer this is
13329s	could be their opportunity to try to
13330s	advance clean up this elimination finish
13332s	the damage you already put down but for
13334s	them it's just grabbing the real estate
13335s	grabbing all that pece control so when
13337s	the cash does pop it is all theirs well
13339s	as far as seven man and calgamer are
13341s	concerned keep in mind seven man decent
13344s	load out to take this challenge up
13346s	against tiny and Misha left side Peak
13348s	maybe not the most favorable but they're
13351s	certainly still making the magic happen
13354s	buils continuously being edited out for
13357s	both sides and destroyed in the process
13360s	says here but Tey Misha they look as
13363s	though they really want at least one if
13366s	not both of these eliminations now they
13367s	know that seven man and Cal gamer are
13369s	bound to have some excellent resources
13373s	and materials but again if you're Cal
13375s	gamer and seven man we saw their load
13376s	outs they don't necessarily need to
13377s	pressure this they got exactly what they
13380s	were looking for can easily disengage at
13382s	this point yeah and being another team
13384s	that's outside of that top 25 bubble
13386s	they're just trying to play the safe
13387s	game straight by try to get some points
13389s	and that's re and ritual are almost
13391s	trying to do the opposite they're trying
13392s	to take the fight to maluka and Thomas
13395s	Thomas and maluka are one of those teams
13397s	that talked about how good they're
13398s	playing as a contested Duo but they're
13400s	in 23rd Place going down here no
13403s	placement points they only get to eight
13405s	points for those eliminations off spawn
13406s	this is not what position you want to be
13409s	in and you can see they're not playing
13411s	safe even though they did get some
13412s	damage they're not going ahead advancing
13413s	on it they got their spot in zone and
13415s	they're just trying to hold on to it you
13417s	see the the loot switch that's respect
13418s	between teammates as well maluka
13421s	definitely understanding that there's a
13422s	reason Thomas is known as a frager in
13426s	the EU
13427s	region and with that sharp
13429s	tooth seems as though Thomas feeling a
13432s	little bit more comfortable with trying
13435s	to aggress even further on the ritual
13436s	and re but we'll have to tune back into
13439s	them a little bit later on here because
13441s	keep in mind what pink said in that mid
13444s	game interview but we'll get more
13445s	insight on that later on because right
13447s	now we've got some great Insight coming
13448s	your way be ADM minute me my
13451s	thank you so much Taco now we saw a huge
13453s	game from Acorn and cold right there
13455s	which basically solidifies their spot in
13457s	the grand finals on Sunday we can see
13459s	them doing everything in their power to
13461s	make sure that pink and vco don't have
13464s	the same success now pink and vco are
13466s	actually in 29th Place right now so
13468s	they're just dipping they're getting out
13469s	of there of course getting inside the
13470s	territory of Camry and CTI as well they
13472s	don't want anything to do with it they
13473s	want to make sure they're avoiding
13474s	fights as much as possible cuz they've
13476s	only got two games to make it
13479s	happen with only two games left you can
13483s	see with pink and voco they talked about
13485s	it going down but as all that happened
13487s	merach is now in a 1 V2 position trying
13490s	to back up trying to do as much as he
13491s	can to try to stay alive that's Duke and
13493s	edgy on the other side they need these
13495s	points and it's a 2V1 situation and
13497s	merach is not backing down from The
13499s	Challenge a nice shot but that's going
13500s	to be a Miss Bach takes a little bit of
13502s	damage but he has more than enough heals
13504s	to try to get himself into tip top shape
13506s	and it's only really a matter of time
13508s	Duke and edgy if they realize that this
13510s	man is a solo that could be their
13511s	opportunity to strike at this stage in
13513s	the game with only two games left you
13515s	have to try to get as many points as
13517s	possible even if you don't get in the
13518s	top 25 here you want to get yourself as
13520s	close as
13522s	possible the hesitation though is
13524s	definitely not there as far as for
13526s	strokey and Kylie are concerned they see
13528s	a solo they're ready to completely try
13531s	and run him down because it's going to
13533s	be in Shari left defend for himself here
13536s	a nice double elimination there stroy
13539s	and Kylie So the plan clearly a success
13542s	from their starting point a great job
13545s	getting that reboot B so they can play
13547s	the game out as a
13549s	Duo
13550s	285 above the storm search threshold
13553s	Alex and
13554s	worthy trying to take advantage of this
13556s	opportunity that is right before their
13558s	very eyes peeking around towards the
13560s	backside of the Zone where they're
13562s	trying to predict some other teams are
13564s	trying to find a little spot a little
13566s	crevice anything that they can hang on
13567s	to but as you saw in the mini map not
13568s	too many teams are there he corn and
13571s	cold you said it yourself they have
13572s	already got their spot into Championship
13575s	Sunday but you know as well as I do
13577s	there's more than just money on the line
13579s	there's more than just the ax of
13580s	Champions it's about calling yourself
13582s	the best fortnite duo in the world and
13585s	that's what cold and acorn came to do
13587s	specifically cold he was at the
13589s	Invitational along with Acorn different
13591s	Duos but he placed third he fell just
13593s	shy above quezy and voo and Camy and
13595s	Siti and he's out for Redemption here as
13597s	merach and another 1 V one he takes
13600s	takes out OAS trying to keep the show
13603s	alive so unfortunate for okas but
13606s	mustach he might have found one
13608s	elimination he's got a lot more work
13611s	ahead of him though just from this
13612s	position alone here at the creaky
13615s	compound as a
13617s	solo maach is really going to have to
13620s	try and play things safe from the back
13622s	side of Zone probably going to have to
13624s	wait recognizing the fact that there's
13626s	some other teams around him but no
13627s	actually he can't afford to play safe
13629s	because the surge damage threshold has
13631s	just tapped in and with that in mind
13634s	merach now it is essentially Now or
13636s	Never he's got to make a play he's got
13638s	to find some damage and he is just
13641s	barely managing to put himself into that
13645s	safety net threshold looking at CH for
13647s	more that's just a a daring play very
13651s	very brave but that's something you kind
13653s	of known from merach one of the more
13655s	mechanically skilled players in the EU
13657s	region overall he's willing to take
13659s	those chances he's willing to bet on
13661s	himself but since he didn't land a shot
13663s	and didn't cover the distance he's just
13664s	trying to disengage you said it yourself
13666s	as well he's just trying to find his way
13668s	in towards the Zone instead of waiting
13670s	letting time pass by and having all
13672s	those Duos pass him and try to hold him
13674s	out I think that was a perfect play for
13675s	him to try to spot find his spot inside
13677s	of the Zone but a team that needs to not
13679s	only find their spot into the Zone they
13681s	need to find damage and they need to
13682s	start to build that Groove 77 below
13685s	continuously falling they're taking some
13687s	time to try to get some resources but
13689s	that's the decision you got to make
13690s	what's more important storm surge or
13692s	resources to try to survive granted
13696s	there isore available for King and vaser
13699s	to utilize but unfortunate stuff there
13702s	doesn't take them quite as far as they
13703s	were hoping for and now with that sound
13706s	going off seems as though teams on the
13708s	hill have definitely taken oh a
13710s	beautiful shot though from King that
13712s	suppressed sniper rifle might be the
13714s	main reason why they weren't as
13715s	concerned but they're still Below on
13718s	surge damage another shot like that
13720s	though and they might just be ahead
13722s	luckily there on the tail end couple of
13725s	shots go through 65 above they do get
13727s	the knock but chances for them to be
13728s	able to take advantage might not
13730s	necessarily be there but that's not
13732s	necessarily what they were looking for
13733s	they were looking to move through they
13735s	were looking to get themselves a spot in
13736s	towards the zone and and this is a
13738s	replay of that shot just amazing coming
13741s	out from King while the pressure is on
13744s	as well he is one of the teams outside
13746s	of that bubble that needs to put in that
13748s	work and let that be a reminder of I
13749s	think for some of these teams even if
13751s	you have that hyp positioning if you
13752s	Peak just a little bit too far get a
13755s	little bit too comfortable well player
13758s	like King he'll make sure to take care
13760s	of that for you yeah and a lot of these
13762s	players you know they might lose sight
13764s	of that suppressed Sniper being in the
13766s	game they might forget or they might be
13768s	forced to Peak to get the surge for
13770s	themselves and and those the
13771s	opportunities we've been seeing all day
13773s	but danger happens Duke goes down to
13775s	paper from one team that has their spot
13778s	for a team that's fighting for it it
13780s	that leaves edgy all by himself trying
13782s	to clutch up Acorn and cold first place
13785s	on the leaderboard they're fairing well
13787s	with that storm surge even though
13788s	they're just forced to continue to move
13790s	north in this Zone they're bypassing a
13792s	lot of those teams that are on that Rift
13794s	Island which honestly looks a little bit
13796s	more active than we' seen in some of
13797s	these previous games but for cold and
13799s	acorn when you know for a fact the draw
13802s	already guaranteed that Championship
13804s	Sunday like we just talked about they
13806s	could do essentially whatever they want
13808s	even if it means is just completely
13810s	running down some other teams yeah again
13813s	pink and talked about it they mentioned
13815s	it edgy and Duke
13818s	though still looking to work together
13821s	here as all these teams continue to Pile
13825s	in to the eclipse to State the way the
13827s	zone is pulling mildly unforgiving given
13831s	some of the water surrounding the area
13833s	but definitely something that these
13834s	teams can work with see the little
13836s	bounce pad Junior trying to boost
13838s	themselves to the front side of the zone
13839s	They they don't want to be one of the
13840s	last teams there unfortunate enough they
13842s	will be in the back of the pack but they
13844s	instantly are trying to build for some
13846s	elevation they don't want to get stuck
13847s	on that low ground especially in this
13849s	Zone that was what I was about to say it
13852s	could be a roller coaster of emotions
13854s	we're going up mountains we're going AC
13856s	cross rivers anything can happen here
13858s	and they get into the box Duke's being
13860s	forced back a lot of damage is there
13862s	he's going to get knocked it's all up to
13863s	edgy and their run comes to an end in
13866s	34th Place that leads their backs up
13869s	against the wall in our fifth and final
13871s	game yeah aorn and Cole do not care it
13873s	does not matter who it is as long as you
13876s	appear in front of them as a Target they
13878s	will look to eliminate you and they've
13881s	been extraordinarily successful all day
13884s	so far today babuka and Thomas
13887s	though they've also had a pretty solid
13890s	day as well JGA but again this is
13892s	definitely an instance where they could
13894s	look to cement themselves in that top 25
13897s	game four goes well see them just trying
13900s	to get that damage Ro Bob goes down but
13904s	at least his teammate ax force is still
13906s	alive trying to grab them as many points
13907s	as possible but at least they're inside
13910s	or at that 10 Place spot for now
13912s	probably got it secured but you don't
13914s	want to leave it up to a problem but he
13915s	don't want to leave it up to the judges
13917s	as you see another replay oh my gosh
13920s	what did we just witness from King does
13922s	he go back to back there is no way this
13925s	man is on fire I dare anybody on that
13928s	stage to try to step in his out now cuz
13930s	he's looking like an amalan trying to
13932s	demolish anything in his way look at the
13934s	load out the double suppressed sniper
13937s	rifle he's even got the sniper Surplus
13940s	augment to boot and he is making
13942s	fantastic work of it but strokey and
13945s	Kylie I am so sorry but the king
13949s	actually that that's his Turf you bag
13952s	you back a dog into a corner this is
13955s	exactly what is going to happen they
13957s	realize the pressure that they're under
13959s	they realize what's at stake even though
13961s	they do have tomorrow if they fall short
13963s	that's not something anybody wants to
13965s	stress about you finish the job here you
13968s	get it done you give yourself a break a
13970s	chance to relax and bod review Laha
13973s	Mixon another one of our teams that
13975s	we've seen do great things throughout
13977s	the year 157 above the damage threshold
13980s	even though that might not seem like a
13981s	lot but from what we've seen like from
13983s	the lobby there's a lot of teams that
13985s	are around those similar numbers but
13986s	luckily for everybody for turns off for
13988s	now even though it wasn't a far rotation
13990s	with the bounce pad Junior it's just
13992s	step by step that's the way a lot of
13994s	teams got to take it just one foot in
13995s	front of the other and forah mixing it's
13997s	certainly one tarp in front of the other
13999s	as they keep trying to make their way
14002s	forward look at Camy and SE though all
14005s	the way at the very top of eclipsis
14009s	state and this is some Primo rail estate
14014s	if you are Cammy and
14016s	se but it does seem as though they're
14018s	going to have to
14020s	disembark from this little Throne that
14022s	they've established the time being but
14023s	not without Ling some suppressive fire
14025s	so everyone below them first yeah and
14028s	leaderboard kind of see the top side of
14030s	what's going on but 19th 20 21st place
14034s	down 24th Place down 26th Place even
14038s	down so if you're outside of that bubble
14040s	for now this is your chance to shine
14042s	this is your chance to pick up those
14044s	points and you kind of saw it at the
14046s	start of the day with quezy and voo 90
14048s	plus points for that Victory Royale
14050s	combined with seven eliminations so
14051s	anything is definitely possible and
14053s	that's whyoga and threats are putting
14055s	themselves to the test now they have
14056s	four eliminations and barely any
14058s	placement points just to the F there's
14060s	24th Place and 24 teams still left alive
14063s	so there's still so many possible points
14065s	up for grabs but the best part is
14067s	threats and Booga they're at least still
14069s	together as we enter this late game
14071s	which is something we have not really
14073s	had a chance to see from this Duo all
14075s	day to day it's been repetitive as far
14078s	as solo F circumstances are concerned
14080s	they just haven't really been able to
14082s	bring anything to fruition because of
14084s	that pink and voco though under a lot of
14089s	pressure here from maluka and Thomas so
14092s	many other teams surrounding them
14093s	sometimes it can be really difficult to
14095s	tell just which direction your builds
14097s	are actually getting targeted from they
14098s	survived the offs spawn battle between
14100s	Acorn and cold this is their chance to
14103s	shine even though they don't have much
14104s	to work with we've seen them do amazing
14106s	things before vco one of the more
14109s	aggressively skilled players and forget
14111s	on top of the world when it comes to
14112s	fortnite they're going astronomical
14114s	building off of the Moon towards
14116s	Relentless Retreat trying to hold on to
14118s	their High Ground they have the rocket
14119s	RAM for backup as well so if anybody
14121s	looks up tries to chop them down they do
14123s	have a plan B pink getting a couple more
14126s	eliminations Thomas maluka bypassing
14129s	everybody else they're trying to stay to
14130s	the front side of the Zone looking back
14132s	only when they have to they have their
14134s	eyes set on the prize for now but I
14136s	wonder if anybody realizes just how far
14138s	up Cy and setti are
14139s	he needed a refresh instead he'll find
14142s	himself waiting for game number five to
14144s	begin as gamy we see SE upo right now
14148s	with the rocket R who he comes crashing
14150s	down is another story be decided because
14151s	yo and Rise they're under Fire right now
14154s	yam is going to drop all the way to the
14156s	water realizes tries to escape but not
14160s	able to Mixon and Blaha instead the only
14163s	ones seemingly able to continue pressing
14166s	forward in this mid low ground layer
14170s	four solos running around this Lobby
14171s	full of Duos squeezy and voo again these
14174s	guys are impressive consistently finding
14176s	a way to go for that High Ground just a
14179s	test here just like in the first game
14181s	they're looking to hold on to it get
14182s	that Victory Royale another elimination
14184s	being found by maluka their total as a
14186s	team does move up to five 12 teams
14189s	remain these are the points that they
14190s	were looking for they started this game
14192s	in 203d place this game alone if they
14195s	come out on top could qualify them to
14197s	Championship Sunday but the fight
14199s	continues Cen Acorn just trying to tear
14201s	everybody down even if that means it's
14203s	their na counterpart as pars and Baka
14206s	fall there's one thing that cold loves
14208s	to do it's play disruptor on the low
14211s	ground layers cuz now Ste Camy they're
14215s	actually going to be able to retake
14216s	height because quezy and Veno they're no
14219s	longer here at some point they winded up
14221s	following quezy himself potentially
14223s	eliminated from this
14226s	match we're seeing everyone below Cammy
14229s	and SE just doing what they can to stay
14232s	alive but Thomas and maluka they have
14233s	been on rampage in these lower layers
14236s	yep Cammy gets another one onto muz
14238s	finding him as a solo another player is
14240s	going to drop Sphinx and Poyo who
14242s	absolutely came out of nowhere on the na
14245s	region to claim their spot here in major
14247s	2 but they don't want just the spot they
14249s	want to take over Thomas find another
14252s	elimination taking down SE Now The High
14254s	Ground has changed and they're trying to
14256s	keep it for themselves acor gets sniped
14258s	out of the air with the the sharp tooth
14259s	and now we're into our final four teams
14262s	left alive but two of them are solos one
14264s	of them is Cammy he's trying to do what
14265s	he can to try to bypass with that men
14267s	Miss falling down low to the low ground
14269s	he goes down a 2v2 situation Sphinx and
14272s	poo drop them into the palm of their
14274s	hands but a nice shots going to be
14275s	traded off but it down on to Thomas and
14278s	they take the game na a on top thanks to
14281s	Poyo and face what a massive comeback
14283s	though from poo and Spinx I mean 12
14286s	eliminations given that they were in in
14289s	such a dire position heading into this
14291s	match that is a massive Point swing here
14294s	Jacob that might just be enough to even
14297s	make them surface in our top 25 and they
14300s	might have snatched away the single game
14303s	elimination record but I'm going to let
14305s	Frankie talk about that cuz there she is
14307s	on stage with our winners yeah I just
14309s	had to come in and ask everything you
14311s	were saying in that final Zone because
14314s	your mouth was going off how wether
14317s	comes um I don't know poo just doesn't
14320s	really talk kind of just you know gets
14321s	kills does this thing and I'm just you
14323s	know there there for the ride you know
14325s	and and do you just are happy to let him
14328s	off the leash like that I mean if he
14330s	gets the kills I got no problem with it
14332s	and and poo your re is burning now
14335s	yeah yeah he is a man of few words he is
14338s	a man of few words he was so what sorry
14340s	he was so loud he was incredibly loud to
14342s	be honest I felt like I could hear him
14344s	backstage so for you how has the day
14346s	been so far now youve got your Victory
14348s	Royale as 12 yeah it's been 21 off spawn
14352s	we I think we're at the bottom of the
14353s	leaderboard but I think we'll be near
14355s	wall range now hopefully we will take a
14358s	look at the leaderboard shortly I love
14360s	this you're a man of so many words I can
14361s	hear him in the background going 21 21
14364s	is there anything you'd like to say to
14365s	people watching right now and supporting
14367s	you um it's really laggy it it's really
14370s	laggy I mean these servers are are
14372s	atrocious but you know we're making it
14374s	work well you know what everyone is in
14375s	the same boat and it's fantastic to see
14377s	you guys doing so well well as you say
14380s	2-1 are you going to make it 31 now I
14383s	mean that's the only option it is the
14385s	only option hopefully you are closer to
14387s	qualifying for Sunday if not you'll get
14388s	to play again tomorrow and you'll get to
14390s	show why NA is potentially the best
14392s	region what would you say it is already
14395s	obviously obviously of course he's a
14397s	little bit biased boyo I know you're a
14399s	man of few words but give me one more
14400s	what's it like to play in Copenhagen
14402s	it's it's different it's not the same as
14404s	at home that's the most words and I
14407s	loved it thank you so much congratul
14409s	everyone than and
14410s	[Applause]
14415s	boo well well well Lan na on top what do
14420s	you have to say now I just want to I
14422s	love how like Po has won the game hype
14424s	moment and all he's thinking is like can
14426s	Spinx just stop talking he's talking too
14427s	much like P down a bit mate you know
14430s	that's his only concern about that game
14432s	um all I have to say is right after that
14435s	you know Thomas HD man were popping off
14437s	it looked like they were going to win
14437s	the game the crowd was getting loud we s
14441s	in the game everyone's just like oh uh
14443s	what did we just watch like the shots
14445s	Spinx and point just H at the end insane
14449s	from the low ground as well and yeah I
14450s	mean you got to give the positional
14452s	Advantage there 100% the Thomas HD and
14455s	malaba right High Ground is usually what
14456s	wins games in fortnite but the shots
14459s	like you mentioned I mean it's just too
14461s	clean and usually I give my respect to
14463s	Acorn and cold cuz usually they're so
14464s	good on the low ground poo and sphinx
14466s	they're looking a little bit better
14468s	especially in this game because they
14470s	were just getting elimination
14471s	elimination boom that that's the winning
14474s	shot right there you make it a 2v one
14476s	cleaning up easy just disgusting this
14478s	one I feel like I can say this about
14480s	every game we've seen so far they have
14482s	been roller coasters from you know SE
14485s	and Camy up on High Ground them going
14487s	straight up then suddenly it's quezy
14488s	Veno just kidding get back to se and
14490s	Camy now it's Thomas HD looking to
14492s	contest I mean this is what I want to
14494s	see is people get more comfortable
14495s	people say look we're just not going to
14496s	let people go for The High Ground we
14498s	want this to yeah 100% and look at this
14501s	right they were talking about it they
14502s	were towards the bottom of the
14504s	leaderboard look at that placement now
14506s	15th right that question mark was there
14507s	I think we're in qual range you are
14510s	definitely in qu range if you are 15th
14512s	right now couple more points might
14514s	secure it for you but it is looking good
14515s	for them right now yeah if they can keep
14517s	hitting shots like that they'll be well
14518s	on their way to being in that core range
14520s	and being secure right so I think the
14522s	big F from them is not to let this win
14524s	almost you know get them too excited
14527s	right stick to what's been working for
14528s	you
14529s	and sort of go with that going into this
14530s	last one I mean again I'm just still
14532s	mesmerized by some of the shots they
14534s	were putting on a clinic in that anger
14536s	yeah and I think it's interesting that
14537s	you know you have one in Sphinx that
14539s	maybe talks a lot by what they would
14541s	consider each other and then poo doesn't
14542s	talk apparently at all but yet they're
14544s	sitting here racking up 12 eliminations
14548s	in game number four of the global
14550s	Championship upper bracket I did not
14553s	think we'd see any Duo break double
14555s	digits and they just went on and did it
14558s	Vivid yeah absolutely incredible stuff
14560s	now we get the opportunity to look at
14562s	the standings Acorn and Cole they're
14564s	pulling away with their lead still in
14566s	first place but quezy and Veno also
14568s	managed to hold on the second place in
14570s	camon CTI they are on the rise that top
14573s	three looks all too familiar right you
14575s	look at if you were to analyze this
14577s	whole year and look at who have been the
14579s	best teams all across the world these
14581s	guys uh you know that top three in
14584s	particular has just been three of the
14585s	biggest names you mention yeah but
14589s	Zeke I'm looking towards 10th place
14591s	right now Thomas HD and Mala right I
14594s	said 23rd Place coming into this game it
14597s	wasn't comfortable so they went ahead
14599s	and clutched up this game but there was
14601s	more than just one clutch this game yeah
14603s	they were going crazy right you know I
14605s	think we all talked about how they
14607s	needed to start to step it up and they
14609s	finally did malab and Thomas started to
14611s	cook and I think we know them as being
14612s	incredible individual players but when
14614s	they start doing things like this Thomas
14616s	going up on height he doesn't care who's
14617s	there he just knows he wants it and they
14619s	take it so so well of course Point SS
14622s	win the game and they sort of shut them
14623s	up with a really really big shot but
14625s	these guys throughout that end game were
14626s	incredibly incredibly dominant showing
14629s	enough why they are revealed as one of
14630s	the favorites for this tournament and I
14632s	wonder what put them in a situation
14633s	where they didn't have those mats right
14635s	what led up to that ultimately where cuz
14637s	if they had materials it feels like
14639s	that's an easy close out right but
14641s	they're kind of put in this situation
14642s	where Poon on the low ground of all
14644s	things they have materials they have the
14646s	angles you're sitting there like a fish
14648s	in a barrel like yep we're going to jump
14650s	down you've got your ankles we hope
14652s	we'll hit ours yeah I mean listen when
14654s	you go up for high ground right we saw
14655s	them they had to go ahead and contest
14657s	The High Ground right when they got the
14658s	eliminations it takes a lot of materials
14660s	to go ahead and actually build up there
14662s	you have to make sure that all of your
14663s	builds kind of stay supported and stuff
14665s	like that so that's probably why they
14666s	were out of materials and then not to
14668s	mention poio and spak just picking up so
14669s	many eliminations on the low ground
14671s	almost impossible for them not to have
14673s	those builds necessary of course right
14674s	when you're wrecking them up over and
14676s	over and over again you sort of just
14677s	even if it is just siphon that you're
14679s	getting right it goes a long way whereas
14680s	Thomas and Mal weren't quite able to
14682s	loot everything that they were getting
14684s	just you know part of the trade
14685s	especially when you're up there on
14686s	height as well towards the end of the
14687s	game standard procedure but they won't
14689s	be upset with that game they'll be very
14690s	very happy especially when you look at
14692s	the previous games they've had and you
14693s	know I got to mention it right that
14695s	Thomas HD maluka clutch all spawn maluka
14698s	with the one V2 actually awesome stuff
14701s	and honestly coming into this they
14703s	should have been expecting stuff like
14704s	this because throughout this chapter
14707s	maluka and Thomas they have done that
14709s	seven times where one of them have gone
14711s	down early and they've clutched it up no
14714s	easy feet especially when you look at
14715s	the competition they've been facing
14716s	Thomas towards the start of the day said
14718s	look I've faced much better competition
14719s	off spawn than Canada in ages right so
14721s	I'm used to doing this and if he's able
14723s	to one V2 against players like that
14724s	they'll be confidently can one2 against
14725s	Canada and AES as well so really good to
14727s	see that happen like you said the two
14728s	clutches for them in that game you guys
14730s	talk about Thomas HD and I'm thinking
14732s	Thomas HD probably one of the best
14733s	snipers in the world then I I kind of
14735s	flash back to Mid game I want to just
14737s	quickly highlight King with two of the
14739s	backto back most disgusting Snipes we've
14742s	seen today un unbelievable King is the
14744s	kind of player that's always going to
14745s	give you that special moment right you
14746s	know we all think back to the world cup
14748s	times right when he eliminated tfue we
14750s	all hyp thinking we are NF this
14751s	Argentinian kid taking out tfue right
14754s	here again today we expect Thomas HD to
14757s	be the sniper machine King sitting
14759s	everybody down you were saying it during
14761s	the game right there were 200 down below
14763s	Serge and then a couple minutes later
14764s	they're 600 above that's ridiculous all
14767s	from his Snipes alone those shots were
14769s	absolutely clutch for sure but now let's
14772s	talk about the clutch that is necessary
14774s	for teams that are in the bubble that's
14776s	right 25 the top 25 will go on to Sunday
14781s	take a look right now M Sherry and Ru
14783s	sitting on that bubble 68 points is the
14787s	minimum going into these next games just
14789s	take a look at some of the names even
14790s	just down there in 30th right Cooper and
14792s	mural right there on the bubble kitos
14795s	and pH in as well but as we've seen
14799s	it just takes one good game and you can
14802s	just change everything now even look at
14804s	31st poai and snazy mate y'all out there
14809s	y snazy andai sneak blue there they are
14814s	y'all can hear them in the ground
14816s	they're going crazy but even someone
14818s	like Booga and threats right they've
14819s	kind of been relatively quiet currently
14822s	sitting in 34th they can make up the
14824s	ground but they really need to come
14826s	online here in this last game yeah 100%
14829s	you know we are at the global
14830s	Championship right let's talk about
14831s	Regional representation in that top five
14834s	or top 25 right now EU there are
14837s	currently 13 Duos na currently has eight
14840s	Duos and then one per each of the
14843s	regions in oce Brazil Middle East and
14846s	Asia so that is currently what the
14848s	regional breakdown is looking like so
14850s	far through the upper bracket yeah I
14852s	think for for me personally the na teams
14854s	have impressed so so much right of
14856s	course they do make up a big part of the
14857s	lobby but I think what we've seen is not
14860s	just the Trailblazers the typical na
14862s	teams you expect to dominate some of the
14863s	ones just in that beneath tier right
14866s	that have come through and really made
14867s	their mark on this competition right
14869s	showed us that they aren't just here to
14870s	sort of hang around and enjoy you know
14872s	Copenhagen and have a good time find a
14873s	girlfriend some of them were saying
14874s	right some of them are here to actually
14875s	try and win right that's what it's all
14877s	about for them right so you know the
14878s	priorities and a lot of these na players
14880s	are clearly you know to come here and
14882s	show EU show the other regions what they
14884s	got yeah and we kind of talked about
14886s	this back in major 2 right at the end of
14888s	it we're kind of I asked you the
14889s	question Le do you think na hangs if we
14892s	get to globals at the time it was no
14895s	right and I think for a lot of players
14896s	in na they're thinking okay 112k we'll
14898s	see you at land then cuz they it feels
14901s	like na is playing with the chip on
14903s	their shoulder and I also kind of want
14905s	to play a little bit of Devil's
14907s	Advocate what if we're revealing
14909s	strategies a little too soon what if EU
14911s	is like yeah you guys are ahead that's
14914s	cool then Championship Sunday they're
14916s	like okay so we were just holding it all
14918s	back you know we were letting you play
14919s	out there thinking you had something
14921s	it's all a show maybe not an element of
14923s	of showing strats too early but
14925s	definitely let's not get ahead of
14926s	ourselves right you know it's just day
14927s	one is just the right you know the final
14930s	final is coming right and that's when we
14932s	got to be looking at the leaderboard and
14933s	really going okay how are the na teams
14935s	doing how are the EU teams doing I think
14936s	once we get to that points League that's
14937s	when we can really start to give that
14939s	analysis of you know regionally around
14941s	the world who who looks the strongest
14943s	I'm still going to say the EU boys right
14944s	but there are some top any teams out
14946s	there that are showcasing that they can
14948s	with anyway yeah man I mean listen you
14951s	know na teams are finding themselves up
14952s	there I'm very happy to see so far the
14954s	performance out of some of the top ones
14956s	okay okay let's take a look at some of
14957s	the stats we're seeing here out of the
14959s	competition so far this is the upper
14960s	bracket let's break it down by the
14963s	Numbers currently as we look at this
14967s	list okay most eliminations here we go
14969s	Acorn and coold that's not surprising
14972s	right they're currently sitting in that
14973s	number one spot it makes sense quezy and
14975s	Veno right behind though um do you guys
14979s	feel like this is the level of
14980s	aggression we would see coming into day
14983s	number one of the
14985s	competition uh for me probably yeah I'd
14988s	say right I think especially seeing
14990s	those two teams there is is is great for
14991s	me in terms of acorn and cold you know
14993s	quey V I look at ven I look at cod's
14995s	individuals throughout the year they
14996s	were the two players I think were going
14997s	head-to-head for you know best player in
14998s	the world a lot of the year and so see
15000s	them up there in terms of eliminations
15002s	just makes sense you'll love to see it
15004s	guess what fortnite fam it is time the
15007s	last game of the today here in the upper
15009s	bracket is about to kick off so casters
15012s	on over to
15013s	you thanks so much Zeke Vivid and 11 for
15017s	all the Insight on the analyst desk but
15019s	our final game of today's upper bracket
15022s	match number five is just on the horizon
15025s	we've seen so many teams now in that
15028s	26th to 50th position trying to escalate
15031s	themselves into the top 25 so that they
15034s	don't have to worry about tomorrow's
15037s	lower bracket match matches Jacob they
15039s	want to make sure that they are already
15041s	guaranteed for Championship Sunday yeah
15042s	and if you look at that leaderboard as
15044s	our analyst broke it down some teams
15046s	they just have to do the bare minimum
15048s	other teams they need a top placement
15050s	and then some teams need a win and
15053s	you're in scenario and I just want to go
15055s	ahead and talk about Canada aers Thomas
15057s	and maluka Thomas and maluka have you
15060s	know narrowly clinched their spot you
15061s	saw them into the top 10 canadan ages
15063s	around 39th place they're one of the
15065s	teams I'm talking about a top 10 finish
15067s	but they have to be able to survive that
15070s	offs spawn battle which hasn't really
15071s	been going their way today even just now
15073s	we saw the collection of players just
15075s	outside of where quezy andent are
15076s	sitting I mean he was threats we also
15077s	saw Canada there and the conversation
15079s	that he looked like he was having with
15080s	Thomas you know maybe he's like hey man
15082s	chill on me at that drip Bridge because
15085s	this 50-50 is not the kind of 50-50 that
15088s	canana and Angel were hoping for at the
15090s	start of today but again when you keep
15093s	in mind the fact that Canada and aers I
15096s	mean coming out of the being recent fncs
15098s	champions for major 3 I'm sure they have
15100s	it in them to make the comeback yeah and
15102s	I think poo and sphin from na have
15105s	really shown and one thing I want to
15106s	talk about is when the regions were
15107s	separated when we had NA East when we
15109s	had na West nobody gave na West a single
15114s	chance even myself said it might take a
15116s	month it might take a major for them to
15118s	get in that Groove but there are a
15120s	number of not only na teams but these na
15123s	players boosting to the top of the
15124s	leaderboard that we could see on
15126s	Championship Sunday and obviously our
15129s	regular na residents towards the top
15131s	side of that leaderboard as well cold
15133s	and acorn and I want to talk about them
15135s	just a little bit as well you know you
15137s	saw pink and Boco but we're going to see
15139s	them here again cuz the battle bus is
15141s	ready let's get this last and final game
15153s	underway it has been a beautiful day so
15157s	far of matches containing our 50 teams
15162s	here in the upper bracket some of the
15165s	strongest teams even from their
15166s	respective regions but only 25 can
15170s	actually break through and guarantee
15172s	themselves a seat on that battle bus for
15174s	Championship Sunday we've seen a handful
15177s	of them in the top 10 feeling relatively
15179s	safe but the relief can't come quick
15182s	enough for those teams just outside the
15185s	top 25 and I can count at the top of my
15187s	head at least three of these offs spawn
15189s	battles that would decide if a team goes
15191s	towards the lower bracket or at least
15193s	gives themselves a chance to get to that
15196s	top 25 to earn that Championship Sunday
15199s	spot themselves and this is going to be
15201s	one of them maluka and Thomas a Gada and
15204s	judging by their elevation it is on it's
15207s	looking like aers might have the beat on
15209s	the punch though aers and Canada quicker
15212s	as far as the drop is concerned opening
15215s	of the chest but it's a tactical DMR
15216s	here that Canada's Got about to work
15218s	with trying to break Thomas' initial
15220s	build AJ is going to follow it up with
15221s	the maven a that's going to be Thomas
15223s	down for the count one knock already A's
15226s	taking full advantage of the siphon as
15229s	well and another benefit is the weapons
15231s	that came with it yeah basically gave
15233s	him so you know full load out minus the
15235s	heals and you see maluka now on the Run
15238s	grabs that slurp truck and now he has
15240s	decisions to make do I try to fight the
15242s	2V1 while I have the underhand or do I
15245s	go ahead and try to disengage and just
15247s	already SE it on the mini map he's just
15248s	trying to survive even though they did
15251s	lose the offs spawn battle they know
15252s	they have their spot secured so now it's
15253s	just for bragon rights extremely
15256s	unlikely that we see maluka try to lap
15261s	back anytime soon here at the race track
15264s	he knows that it's going to take some
15265s	time before AES and Canada fully clear
15268s	this area out and if he wants to get
15270s	Thomas's reboot card he might force
15274s	himself into
15276s	waiting but the way is over as far as
15278s	threats and Booga are concerned that's
15281s	going to be a quick elimination to start
15283s	things off for a team that desperately
15285s	needs it yeah you see thread's taking
15288s	advantage of what is usually a triple
15290s	chest on the side of that mountain
15292s	mixing goes down that's not only
15294s	important points for boan threats that's
15297s	storm surge really give themselves a
15299s	little bit of a cushion cuz we know
15300s	that's not going to be enough but
15302s	another one of our Off spa battles that
15303s	are Paramount for our team success King
15305s	and phaser cow gamer seven man shots are
15308s	being fired phaser is going to quickly
15310s	disengage he doesn't want to give up too
15312s	much he wants a chance to heal you see
15313s	he has big pots and if King can get to
15315s	him that'll allow him to heal up as well
15318s	but even with the Vault card phaser he
15319s	can't charge into it just yet unless K
15323s	gamer some men have it in there asist to
15326s	just prioritize that but King applying a
15330s	little bit of pressure here from a
15332s	distance keep in mind the resources
15335s	though builds not looking the best as
15338s	far as seven man is concerned and Cal
15341s	gamer
15343s	again seems as though he has none at all
15346s	so this is definitely going to put call
15348s	gamer and seven man's push to a halt and
15350s	that is more than enough time for phaser
15353s	and King to get into the Vault here at
15355s	Relentless Retreat yeah both of these
15356s	teams need to have a solid performance
15359s	if they want to see Sunday right here
15361s	otherwise they'll have to go to the
15363s	lower bracket and earn it yet again but
15365s	you see a switch up of what we saw last
15367s	Game King and phaser this time around
15369s	getting control of that Vault over
15371s	towards Relentless retreat but instead
15372s	of just disengaging seven man and
15374s	calgamer are still looting up there's a
15376s	lot of loot there to grab and what a
15378s	huge battle going down yet again but
15381s	Cammy and SEI they're they're separated
15383s	but they're trying to pins them in
15384s	they're trying to surround from multiple
15386s	angles and trap them in that little Barn
15388s	one of the most common fights that we've
15389s	seen so far today and stain and datas
15392s	though holding their own now what a way
15394s	to represent Asia though I mean we talk
15396s	all the time ever since the Invitational
15398s	really where we saw some of the
15400s	potential I think from Asia fraggers and
15403s	so dasis and stain looking to try and
15405s	follow that up as much as possible they
15407s	have been going toe-to-toe here with
15409s	Camy and c and granted frenzy Fields
15411s	hasn't necessarily always gone their way
15412s	but it it's definitely made a little bit
15415s	of an impact against s and Cammy because
15417s	they had to go nuclear basically the
15418s	last two matches to play
15421s	catchup another one going to break down
15423s	a lot of early game skirmishes with your
15425s	back up against the wall it almost
15426s	leades you no choice to try to get the
15428s	elimination points ax Force robob going
15431s	against P0 and kitos Kos and P actually
15434s	do need this they are outside of the
15436s	bubble 26 place and a nice shot to try
15438s	to back down axe Force they still they
15441s	pounce they get the 2V1 give themselves
15443s	at least a Onan Advantage heo trying to
15446s	heal up they're not wanting to give him
15448s	that opportunity drop him down into the
15449s	palm of their hands they're attacking
15451s	from both angles time is running out
15453s	unless a miracle happens here as ax for
15455s	a little bit of a jumble and a miss step
15457s	but his teammate is there to rise to the
15460s	occas and get that elimination so we see
15462s	our first team in the lower bracket
15464s	facing against our last chance major
15466s	teams p and ketos try their best ketos
15469s	especially in that instance but you got
15471s	one below you one above difficult for
15475s	anybody to actually find
15478s	themselves on the benefactory I like
15480s	this I I like this pink may have called
15482s	it griefing but now this is just using
15484s	your brain Acorn and cold even though
15486s	they've already qualified letting pink
15489s	and voco qualify off of their spot which
15491s	means they're going to get contested
15492s	again on Sunday so they want to make
15494s	sure that team has his little loot push
15496s	him back as much as possible as an non
15499s	and Suns they need a big game here going
15501s	against quezy and voo who already got
15503s	their spot secured and I like the
15505s	aggressive nature coming out of this
15506s	start to build that confidence get some
15509s	points and then you can probably take
15511s	what they've been doing and put it to
15512s	the test yourselves but it all really
15515s	comes down here if they want to actually
15516s	fight because Zan looks like he's
15518s	disengaging he doesn't want to get
15520s	trapped between both vo and quezy this
15522s	is a very risky team to try and Tango
15525s	with when your position in that top 25
15529s	is on the line here Suns and Anan they
15531s	cannot afford to get eliminated just yet
15535s	but quezy and Veno they're not the sort
15537s	to let anything go we've got some player
15540s	listen in coming our way starting with
15545s	Canada got a m
15549s	16 white going to you I'm running on my
15551s	right run him 20 white kill him 40 white
15555s	40 white 40 white the he's at the Finish
15558s	get the Finish nice we need to kill him
15562s	bro he's running he's running back he's
15564s	he's just running to rise he's trying to
15566s	not give us the kill
15569s	points he's at the hut right
15571s	now nine damage no he ran bro we just
15574s	Camp the card we just Camp the card he's
15576s	a great see a lot go down in that listen
15579s	in the great teamwork the G great
15581s	chemistry but then the plan for the
15583s	future they're going to Camp that card
15585s	so that way maluka can't come back and
15587s	get it safely which leaves him as a solo
15590s	at the start of the game so remember
15593s	that because if he does amazing things
15595s	he did it all by himself as Veno just so
15598s	much damage from the storm with just a
15601s	sliver of HP you got to imagine as it
15603s	continues to pop low yeah I was going to
15604s	say a medkit is probably getting popped
15606s	please he does have some splashes he's
15608s	just trying to Hound be the Predator
15611s	towards his prey Suns and Anan got to
15613s	figure out what they're going to do
15614s	because they're just getting followed
15615s	right now by quezy and
15617s	Venom and Ken that's definitely not the
15620s	team that you want trailing behind you
15623s	because just like that quezy is going to
15624s	give some quick reminders of what he's
15626s	capable
15627s	of for Misha and
15630s	Tiny they've also got to deal with Baka
15634s	and pars and again such an impressive
15636s	day so far from Baka and pars we've
15638s	really been seeing them take an
15640s	aggressive stance and come out on top in
15644s	numerous
15646s	situations and I would expect to be all
15649s	the same here and Canada and aers even
15651s	though RAC TR might have gone their way
15652s	running into yzo and Rise is a different
15654s	story Al together as aers now forced to
15658s	Bounce has to leave Canada to be
15662s	eliminate collected and they went from
15665s	wanting to Camp Thomas's reboot card so
15667s	now AJ is potentially having to worry
15669s	about whether or not they that yzo and
15671s	Raz will do the same to Canada yeah this
15673s	is this is very Troublesome for aers and
15676s	Canada the duo that needs at minimum a
15679s	top 10 performance here in this game if
15681s	they're looking to skip Saturday and go
15682s	directly to our Championship but a fight
15685s	that we saw start as a 2v2 ends up in a
15688s	1 V one Baka gets the Beast control away
15690s	from Tiny not really letting him getting
15691s	any footing in this ground the real
15693s	estate here and that peace control is
15695s	going to be important and another shot
15697s	getting fire Tiny getting backed down
15699s	little by little Baka just playing a
15702s	game of peekaboo it's working out for
15703s	him but everything good comes to an end
15706s	eventually and Baka takes a massive shot
15708s	the thing here it doesn't matter where
15709s	he's at cuz he goes down and the only
15712s	place he's going to be is back to the
15713s	lobby that was a huge shot here for tiny
15718s	but it's not over just yet Bryce and
15720s	chubs now deciding to join the freay
15722s	Teeny going to look to see if he can
15725s	find an Escape Route somehow or at at
15726s	least an opportunity to get this revive
15728s	going off onto Misha and chubs Bryce
15731s	they don't seem like they're fully aware
15733s	just how far back tetiny and Misha
15735s	actually are so a successful revive does
15737s	come through a 2v2 potential situation
15741s	here but again Misha and Tiny bound to
15743s	be relatively low on resources after
15745s	that last
15746s	engagement got to imagine it to be true
15749s	that's Tey trying to hold the covers
15751s	give his teammate some time to try to
15754s	heal up first is going to be the medkit
15756s	now it's going to to be the Shields and
15757s	the forast tower hasn't even been taken
15759s	yet that's what they were originally
15761s	fighting over and that's probably what
15763s	draw Bryce and chubs over to this
15766s	direction but they don't know that he
15768s	was weak necessarily so for them they're
15770s	just trying to play the game they're
15771s	outside of that top 25 they want to give
15773s	themselves a fighting chance to get
15775s	towards that Championship Sunday and not
15777s	really fight towards that Saturday as we
15780s	tune on to agers you can see him just
15783s	trying to go ahead and bypass everything
15786s	let's go ahead and go listen in to see
15788s	what happened in the beginning of this
15790s	game when he gets in I'll be able to see
15792s	him in just front 3060 on him nice I got
15795s	head shot sniped through the bush this
15797s	is so sad
15800s	man that is really all that can be said
15804s	in some circumstances
15807s	yzo is actually just a monster for that
15811s	one I mean and if you're in Canada's
15813s	position as
15815s	well sometimes it it's just it is what
15818s	it is but yamza he's got a lot more to
15820s	deal with for the time being being a
15822s	littlex stal on the rotation quickly
15825s	reminded that there's still other
15826s	players waiting around in this Lobby for
15828s	him and you can see towards the mini map
15830s	from kind of edge of Zone towards the
15832s	Southeastern side and that's where a lot
15833s	of these caches will spawn either South
15836s	towards the east where a lot of these
15837s	teams are congested at and just judging
15840s	by the lack of the slurp juice they
15842s	haven't grabbed theirs just yet they're
15843s	hoping to try to beat another team to
15845s	that punch and even they found some
15847s	dangers there just a little bit you can
15850s	see that they have not too many teams
15852s	nearby as we see the other side of what
15855s	went
15856s	down and the head shot on the Mappy that
15860s	is a huge he is just on fire he's
15862s	feeling it look at the
15864s	confidence can't blame him at this point
15867s	it's just what are you really meant to
15870s	do in that sort of situation other than
15873s	just fall victim to yamza there but
15875s	fortunately for Adis and Canada they're
15877s	still going to be able to play things
15879s	out as a du well successful reboot van
15882s	there for
15884s	aers the health replenish as well got a
15888s	handful of slat splashes left to work
15890s	through so seeming as though the dream
15893s	is still alive for aers and Canada for
15896s	now at the very least but sometimes
15898s	those are the wake up calls you need
15900s	especially when you know it's our fifth
15901s	and final game of the day and while
15903s	they're facing all that Madness on that
15905s	side of the map buun threats sticking to
15908s	what they know Works which is those slow
15910s	side rotations they found themselves
15913s	towards the top side of the zone and and
15915s	kind of just looking there's not too
15916s	many teams in their mini map and if you
15918s	look even further there's only about
15920s	three teams directly in front of them so
15922s	they got themselves a safe spot as long
15925s	as they continue to pull that zone and
15927s	my only question Taco is going to be how
15929s	much surge do they have cuz if they're
15930s	on the slow side there's not going to be
15932s	many opportunities to grab it that's
15934s	exactly what I wanted to bring up
15935s	because with only one elimination
15937s	and from what we've been see
15938s	consistently throughout day there have
15941s	been circumstances where teams have had
15943s	several or more eliminations and still
15945s	found themselves just barely above that
15947s	surge damage threshold so IFA and
15950s	threats making these dead side rotations
15953s	yeah you might have the best positioning
15954s	in the world but it doesn't really mean
15956s	a whole lot if you don't have any damage
15959s	with it because then you still have to
15961s	compromise your positioning ultimately
15963s	just to find some damage damage
15965s	something they do plent here for acorn
15968s	and cold going to say that was big but
15971s	it comes to an end yet again and pink
15974s	and beo outside of that top 25 so I
15978s	think cold and
15980s	acorn have defended their drop spot
15984s	they're actually in
15985s	24th place they have 74
15989s	points that's going to be a tough one to
15994s	watch eyes on Cooper and Miro as
15999s	well one of our teams in that 28th
16001s	position but for the team on our screen
16004s	right now vannak and
16006s	Ki they've also got to
16009s	ensure that they're able to stay within
16012s	this top 25 because again just barely
16016s	being above as far as the points are
16019s	concerned it does not leave you in a
16022s	guaranteed position there are ample
16024s	teams that could look to leap frog over
16027s	you if you aren't careful so they'll
16029s	definitely keep that in mind and
16031s	continue trying to be as methodical as
16033s	possible with their movements yeah you
16034s	can basically see the tail end of that
16036s	top 25 pink and vinko down 74 Batman
16039s	buan rapid 80 the points continue to
16042s	climb the more you go up a lot of these
16044s	teams don't really need to do everything
16048s	they just need to do the bare minimum as
16050s	sty gets spotted out by himself and
16052s	Shari and Rue they have a chance to
16054s	sneak up snaz is all by himself pisai we
16057s	already saw him go down earlier on in
16058s	the game and the strike from above the
16060s	sneak attack and it's worked to
16062s	Perfection and Shar and Rue they get
16064s	that elimination and that's huge because
16067s	they were the team in the 25th spot they
16070s	started the game with 68 points now you
16074s	can kind of count them up 72 but they
16076s	still haven't passed up pink and Vico at
16079s	74 points Sneezy was just so focused on
16084s	teams that weren't on that Island he had
16087s	no
16088s	clue but those two were sneaking up
16090s	behind him the ultimate Crouch maneuver
16092s	essentially all the way up until they
16095s	had their precise moment to pounce onto
16099s	snazy and that's big as well forar and
16101s	Ru because again another team just
16103s	barely managing to hang on to that top
16105s	25 threshold they are currently
16109s	25th and looking to go higher yeah and
16111s	this is a team you know major one they
16114s	became Champions they they stayed
16116s	towards the top of leaderboards in Duo
16119s	cash cups in fncs they're just trying to
16122s	continue to mimic that just like Cooper
16124s	and Meo who are almost not even duoing
16127s	this season it was left to a coin flip
16129s	of all things and what a coin flip it
16133s	was I hope Cooper kept that coin maybe
16135s	framed it on a
16137s	wall one would think but I guess it
16140s	maybe depends on how this weekend goes
16143s	possibly for the do regardless they've
16145s	done an excellent job as a team but more
16148s	importantly still their placements you
16150s	saw it jump just a little bit part of
16152s	that due to the fact that Cooper able to
16154s	find a really nice elimination here and
16156s	this is a massive one as well a good
16158s	shut down onto Cold
16161s	essentially and that is huge for Cooper
16163s	and Meo because they have had some
16166s	problems in their rotations dealing with
16168s	some of these teams that are already
16169s	guaranteed to be participants of our
16172s	Championship Sunday so knowing that Co
16176s	was able to find that elimination on the
16178s	cold it it just makes the rotation all
16181s	that easier it probably builds a little
16183s	bit of confidence too cuz even though
16184s	they went down and they got their spot
16185s	on Sunday Colden Acorn they're going to
16188s	finish first in this bracket more than
16190s	likely with how they've been playing and
16192s	when you see cold go down when you see
16193s	Acorn go down it makes that much more
16197s	better it's like a sigh of relief that's
16199s	one less dangerous player in the lobby
16201s	that I have to go through towards the
16203s	very end I mean three out of five teams
16206s	in our top five are just not in the
16209s	lobby any longer they've all been
16210s	eliminated only Cammy and SEI and ritel
16213s	and re but again the point difference so
16216s	High um these guys can essentially
16218s	choose exactly how they want to wrap
16221s	things up for
16224s	today meanwhile boa doesn't get that
16227s	same luxury boa and threats have to be
16229s	on their aame yeah it's going to be a
16232s	must 44 points we saw the threshold
16236s	around 72 points thinking about 28
16241s	points to try to get inside of that
16243s	bubble or within contention which really
16244s	isn't much as long as they continue to
16247s	have a upward trajectory in a lot of
16249s	their games much like Canada and aers a
16253s	lot was was holding them back was Thomas
16255s	and maluka in that offs spawn battle but
16257s	now they have a chance here to hold on
16259s	to their own destiny fade is in their
16262s	hands and they just need to be able to
16264s	find a little bit of a re refresh but
16266s	where are they going to get their
16267s	refresh how how long can they survive
16269s	without it if they stop just short of
16272s	going deeper into the Zone they got
16273s	themselves The Edge for a team like this
16274s	with 329 above the damage threshold
16277s	that's just going to be enough for now
16279s	considering that aers had to get a
16281s	reboot off on the Canada they were a
16283s	little bit of shambles yeah when you
16284s	think about how this game started out
16286s	for them sure that initial 50/50 might
16288s	have been relatively successful granted
16290s	they would have definitely loved the
16291s	double elimination Factor there only
16293s	getting one onto Thomas maluka for
16295s	simply retreating but it is an Endeavor
16299s	to say the least to reboot your teammate
16303s	and then find yourself successfully deep
16306s	enough into a late game Lobby to
16307s	potentially catapult yourself into the
16310s	top 25 the leaderboards for today yeah
16312s	just moments ago in the feed bua taking
16314s	down Mappy they're just trying to
16316s	continue to control their own destiny as
16318s	well tiny taking down fast Roki a lot of
16320s	these teams outside of the bubble and I
16322s	thought I just saw ey drop go down to
16325s	Ping so that's another team eliminated
16328s	out of this
16329s	Lobby King and phaser though they're
16331s	still in it and they're here to win it
16334s	overall we see the loot getting past
16336s	around they have quite some distance to
16339s	cover and a lot of players to run
16341s	through if they want to make it
16343s	there on the bright side though they're
16345s	not the only ones that have a decent
16348s	amount of map coverage to go granted
16352s	when you are one of those last teams to
16354s	come in behind everybody else your
16356s	primary concern is going to be well
16358s	depending on where those other teams are
16359s	situated depending on where they're
16360s	position they might be able to cut me
16362s	off entirely and that's exactly what
16364s	king and faser are trying to avoid
16366s	they're trying to make their way to Zone
16368s	as quickly as possible so that they can
16370s	be the ones controlling the way that the
16372s	lobby actually flows yeah they don't
16374s	want to get held out they want to do the
16376s	holding they're rotating parallel to
16378s	both muz and Pap for a team that is
16380s	inside of the top 25 I wouldn't say
16382s	they're as safe as can be anything could
16384s	still happen but baser doing a good job
16387s	of leading the charge found themselves a
16389s	little bit of a spot where they can hold
16390s	up for now but they're getting focused
16392s	by a couple players in this Lobby Alex
16395s	worthy being one of them on the other
16397s	side as he continues to peek through the
16398s	cone 81 below Taco this isn't looking
16400s	good for now they might not have the
16402s	damage threshold just yet but they do
16404s	have a few crash pads phas are going to
16406s	instantly use one to jump a little bit
16409s	further a little bit more up on that
16411s	height as well but the shots come
16413s	through all the way across the line a
16416s	and that's going to be an instantaneous
16418s	knock just about onto phaser King now
16421s	under heavy dorest trying to do what he
16423s	can forced to build down forced to drop
16427s	numerous layers but again with this
16429s	legendary slurp juice will be able to
16432s	just barely prevent himself from being
16436s	eliminated by the damage threshold tags
16438s	off of the storm surge but still it is
16442s	tough stuff right now for King yeah if
16444s	it wasn't trle and chich on the other
16446s	side it's storm surge they're below the
16448s	threshold even with the slurp juice pops
16450s	they're taking a lot of damage but rise
16452s	yzo team who took down Canada and aers
16455s	in the beginning well it's just Canada
16457s	this time around but if he can go back
16459s	to his OG self we used to call him one
16461s	of the more prolific solo players in the
16463s	game being able to pick up a massive
16465s	amount of points a huge amount of
16467s	clutches we saw agers do it in their
16469s	major championship run now it's kanada's
16471s	turn to pick up the pace you see him
16473s	going low he doesn't have a lot of
16474s	builds not a lot of resourc the only
16476s	thing he really has going for him is the
16477s	damage threshold when it comes to storm
16479s	surge a nice little gift though just on
16481s	the ground managed to pick up some
16483s	materials it's going to provide him more
16485s	than the four buils he had initially to
16487s	work with shot him up to 30 but still
16491s	Canada also now with this heisted
16494s	creacher in toe breaking through the
16497s	floors of some of these builds and just
16500s	hoping that there is not a full team on
16503s	the other side of it because you're
16504s	looking at a 1 V one with not a decent
16506s	chance but two versus one situations is
16508s	tough for any player to deal with there
16511s	are more teams left alive right now that
16513s	are outside of the top 25 trying to earn
16515s	their spot then there is inside of the
16518s	top 25 and placement points haven't even
16520s	begun to kick in yet that puts a lot of
16522s	pressure on the king he's already
16523s	survived storm surge once he has the
16526s	slurp juice he has a couple minis but
16528s	he's still 123 below he's not even
16530s	peeking out going for shots he's just
16532s	trying to survive it but if he looks
16534s	down low there's there's a bit of loot I
16535s	thought I saw the tip of a big pot down
16537s	there as well which will be crucial for
16539s	his survival he finally look down
16541s	there's a med Mist as well he found a
16542s	treasure Trove and a miracle to keep
16545s	himself alive but he knows he needs to
16547s	go he knows he needs to continue moving
16549s	forward get towards the Zone he don't
16550s	want to fall behind but a nice shot from
16552s	the backside King forced to stabilize
16554s	himself stop the rotation that means a
16556s	lot of teams are going to be able to hop
16557s	over him and get to Zone first again
16560s	right now it seems though King he's
16561s	trying to prioritize positioning just
16563s	hoping that some other team some other
16565s	solo gets eliminated first and that
16567s	could potentially put him to where he
16569s	actually isn't below that special but
16571s	Canada right now just barely cleaning on
16573s	but it won't be enough finally finds
16576s	himself eliminated from the lobby
16579s	unfortunate run there for Canada en
16581s	agers in our final game of the day yeah
16583s	at least he got this experience of
16585s	playing on the big stage cuz he's going
16586s	to have to go again tomorrow against our
16588s	last chance major teams zidus and his
16592s	teammate have The High Ground they
16593s	started this game on the bubble you got
16595s	to imagine they've been climbing up that
16597s	ladder just likea and threats you talked
16599s	about it yourself you even casted it
16601s	throughout the day they have yet to play
16603s	a solid game as a Duo this is their
16605s	chance but the solo trying to push that
16608s	both Alex and worthy as well a lot of
16610s	damage being done here by storm surge
16612s	not even these players we're seeing so
16614s	many teams though struggling with storm
16616s	surge but for bua and threats they were
16618s	over 800 damage above they can focus
16621s	entirely on how they choose to actually
16624s	tarp through some of these congested
16626s	layers and right now Meo forced into a
16630s	solo position won't have any sort of
16633s	time to try and help out Cooper in the
16635s	process we are simply too deep into
16637s	these moving zones at this point as now
16639s	Meo finds himself in a decent amount of
16641s	pressure couple of slap flashes all of
16643s	his slap flashes actually going to be
16645s	expended here Meo trying to see if he
16648s	can find an opening from the back side
16649s	of the Zone nutty from the side though
16652s	clean shot onto seven man and a quick
16655s	build up
16656s	utilize his Med kit just quick moving
16658s	quick free acting but not quick enough
16659s	that's cow gamer and seven man a big
16661s	game needed from them they could boost
16663s	themselves into that top 25 as well buan
16666s	threats five eliminations so far peing
16668s	download trying to recycle some of these
16670s	builds cuz they know they don't got much
16671s	left a refresh or siphon Ms anything is
16675s	what they're looking for and they even
16676s	split it between them two so it's even
16678s	less for an individual they fall on top
16680s	of Alex can they get that elimination
16682s	can they get the siphon yes they can off
16684s	the back of threats who gets a double
16686s	elimination and push themselves into the
16688s	top 10 just barely there no boa actually
16692s	going to find himself trapped just
16694s	outside he won't be able to make it in
16696s	in time and the knock from that surg
16700s	that's so tough that the storm is going
16702s	to be his ultimate competitor but
16704s	threats still up threats still trying to
16707s	move forward doesn't have much left in
16709s	the medm Miss though needs to find a
16711s	refresh at this point it's
16713s	almost 100% necessary but these points
16716s	that he's grabbing here staying alive
16718s	seven eliminations as well this could be
16720s	enough but it's definitely going to be a
16722s	buzzer beater if I've ever seen one
16724s	myself and he's continuing to bypass
16726s	everybody but on The High Ground it's
16728s	yzo and Rise that are trying to take
16731s	this last and final game of the day a
16733s	few teams actually that are stuck down
16734s	low still need this shot to try to
16736s	qualify mishan is one of them JX and
16739s	Chicho they probably already got their
16740s	spot but threat does it yet again
16743s	another elimination trying to go ahead
16746s	and keep him anda's dream alive but for
16748s	threats he didn't find any sort of white
16750s	heals which he needed granted it might
16753s	not be necessary almost found the
16755s	closing shot there on surprise but with
16757s	Theo there to back him up it's no
16759s	problem whatsoever and we are seeing one
16762s	of Na's fin this with a victory Royale
16764s	for the day close I called them one of
16766s	the most dangerous teams coming into the
16768s	global Championship it may have taken
16771s	them some time to heat up but they have
16773s	finally won the game and I want to go
16776s	ahead and hear exactly what they have to
16778s	say so I'm going to throw it over to
16779s	Frankie to let us know how they're
16780s	feeling in this moment I'm between the
16783s	danger Juro and what a day it's been for
16786s	the two of you a spot in Sunday's Grand
16789s	Final was inevitable but how did you
16792s	ramp things up for the victory Royale at
16794s	the end of today uh it was a rough first
16796s	few games uh we had a two zero pointers
16798s	back Tob back so said we went last and
16801s	he I think three head shot Snipes this
16803s	game so it set us up in the beginning of
16804s	the game and and got the win and you are
16807s	currently in fourth place so you say
16810s	you've had a tough day but you've had
16812s	incredible performance uh for you rise
16815s	what's it been like getting to compete
16818s	with so many people here uh it's been
16820s	awesome it's my first land and I'm just
16822s	excited to be here it's your first land
16824s	that's incredible because you're taking
16825s	to it like a duct to water let me ask
16828s	you about this year and getting ready
16831s	for lamb because we know the two of you
16833s	you love to go for elimination
16835s	but you've had to find consistency and
16837s	stability to make it to the end games
16839s	and now you make it look successful what
16842s	do you think was the key to making that
16844s	change uh to be honest we've just been
16847s	playing the whole year and we just kept
16849s	the same play style yeah and for the two
16851s	of you now how are you finding the
16854s	pressure of being on land is it
16856s	affecting the coms in any way I think
16858s	the first game a little nervous of
16859s	course both our first lands but after
16862s	game one it went away and feels good to
16864s	be playing an international stadi so do
16866s	you think you could get used to being on
16868s	land do you feel like this is your
16869s	natural your favorite place to be now
16871s	yeah I just have to get used to and once
16873s	you get used to it it's kind of easy you
16875s	make it look easy I'm not going to lie
16877s	but I know it's definitely not yomo rise
16880s	congratulations we'll see you on Sunday
16882s	and we'll see the guys on the desk right
16884s	now I
16885s	think thank you so much this is a
16889s	unicorn Duo this is a rare type of Duo
16892s	okay I'm talking you're bringing
16894s	together two people who are unique in
16896s	gamep playay in skill set in hair color
16901s	these guys have it all the victory
16904s	Royale especially here in
16907s	Championship first day Global
16909s	Championship first day that's a big deal
16911s	yeah I mean listen I'll be honest I feel
16913s	like they were a little quiet throughout
16915s	the day I wasn't really keeping a close
16917s	eye on yzo and Rise but of course last
16920s	game of the day they got to be like hey
16922s	by the way guys like we're one of the
16923s	best teams here by the way yeah 100% man
16925s	the're Ginger Giants hey these guys are
16928s	look you said a bit quiet I I had seen
16930s	them sort of within almost every end
16932s	game right towards the back in right you
16933s	said you know he had the the double zero
16935s	point games or whatnot but then the rest
16937s	of it was very consistent exactly what
16938s	you expect to see from thez and Ry they
16940s	one of the teams I love the most from
16942s	any right because tactically they are
16944s	sound right they are as good tactically
16946s	as any other team in the world and when
16948s	they are feeling confident when they are
16949s	in their Rhythm they are so so good and
16951s	they showed it there in that last game
16952s	yams has always been one of those guys
16954s	right that it's just ridiculously
16956s	confident and it's not in like a cocky
16957s	way just he knows what he can do good
16960s	and now they're like hey look kind of
16962s	what he's saying once we figured it out
16963s	it's easy it's not necessarily easy they
16966s	are just that good yeah and I mean I
16969s	want to point out the fact that you know
16970s	they mentioned that yeah sure the first
16972s	game we were a little bit nervous and a
16973s	lot of the times we talk about
16974s	experience being that oh they've been to
16976s	these in-person event before and that's
16979s	why some of those players that have that
16980s	experience come in and they're sort of
16982s	ready but the fact that they were able
16983s	to adapt and get com
16985s	in just a short amount of time right we
16987s	only played five games today and they
16989s	were talking like they were very very
16990s	comfortable towards the end of it that
16992s	is impressive in it's own right but that
16993s	comes with having a game plan right and
16995s	and that's the difference between them
16997s	and a lot of other teams just in
16998s	competive fortnite in general is these
17000s	guys come ready and when you have a game
17002s	plan that you can trust you have to be
17004s	you just have to be confident right
17005s	because you you know you follow that
17006s	game plan it's going to take you far and
17008s	that's exactly what these guys can do
17010s	absolutely let's do this let's take a
17012s	look at our standings remember we want
17014s	to end the day in top 25 to go straight
17017s	on through to Sunday uh real quick Vivid
17020s	I am not good at reading what's that
17022s	what is that what do you say what's the
17024s	name up there in the first place hey Liv
17026s	uh I let's take the facts here right I'm
17028s	a little short have a little trouble
17029s	with the top shelf sometimes can you go
17031s	ahead and uh read out uh first place for
17034s	all the way up there all the way up
17035s	there all right so in first place you
17037s	have agents called and dig Acorn they
17040s	have been phenomenal yes 325 points
17044s	first place ladies and gentlemen we got
17046s	him now what's crazy to me let's talk
17048s	about the overall of this top 10 right I
17051s	would have expected a lot more EU names
17055s	in general but that's not the case now
17057s	we have some high-profile ones in there
17059s	quey venos setting and
17062s	Cammy but still na deciding to show up
17065s	on day one yeah na had a very good day
17067s	I'm very very proud of everybody I think
17069s	a Cole definitely proved that low ground
17071s	is pretty much theirs especially when it
17073s	comes to finding the eliminations when
17074s	it comes to of finding the great
17076s	rotations that they actually do through
17077s	some of those mid games some of them
17078s	they just weren't even building so shout
17080s	out to acon for making some of those
17081s	calls and obviously Cod he'll always
17083s	find you an elimination 100% right and
17085s	and even similar for yumu and Ry towards
17087s	the back in them games right there were
17089s	a couple of those games I think it was
17090s	game three we saw them try to look up
17092s	for height and they were ready they
17093s	wanted to go for it Queen up there
17095s	started spraying them but when you're an
17097s	IG as good as rise is you're not
17099s	concerned about it like cool you can't
17100s	play for height I'll just play mid
17101s	ground and low ground just as well and
17102s	that's exactly what they've done today
17104s	you love to see now our next question
17106s	obviously has to be who's going through
17108s	we know the to 25 will be moving on to
17111s	Sunday let's take a look at a list of
17114s	the 25 players that have qualified a
17117s	couple of names let's just call them out
17119s	obviously we saw some of the big ones I
17121s	wanted to quickly highlight zagu right
17123s	here and pepo clip obviously we saw them
17126s	back in the days of Invitational for
17127s	them though back then day two didn't
17129s	quite hit as hard but now making it
17132s	through to Sunday they have time to PR
17135s	and hopefully they'll bring some heat
17136s	yeah I'm very very excited to actually
17138s	see what they bring on day number three
17141s	we also saw some very cool strategies
17143s	from them throughout the day you know
17144s	farming some of that surge very very
17147s	cool from them but talking about some of
17149s	the smaller region I mean Alex and wory
17151s	sixth place from the OC region very
17154s	impressive Alex is one of my favorite
17156s	players to watch such an electric player
17158s	so entertaining at any given moment this
17160s	guy can turn it on and just absolutely
17163s	storm and roll for anyone worthy as well
17165s	when I spoke to them they said they were
17166s	struggling a bit right it's a 25h hour
17168s	flight for them right to get over way
17170s	over here and they said yeah we're
17171s	feeling a bit tired but you know give us
17172s	some some good sleep and we'll be able
17174s	to get into that Lobby and show you what
17175s	we can do and that's what they're doing
17176s	here today so how now that we've kind of
17179s	concluded the first five games how are
17181s	you guys feeling about the competition
17183s	obviously it's pretty evident there's a
17185s	lot of Duos that are still holding some
17187s	things back right whether that be they
17189s	held them back and now they're going to
17190s	lower bracket or they they're in the top
17192s	25 they can hold them till Sunday did
17195s	day one meet your expectations Vivid
17197s	yeah I feel like so and again I want to
17199s	kind of bring up the regional aspect of
17201s	the global Championship going actually
17204s	into finals from the upper bracket we
17206s	have 12 EU teams eight na teams two Asia
17209s	teams and then one each for Middle East
17212s	Asia or not Asia Brazil and oce so
17215s	pretty rounded out right Regional uh
17218s	representation from every single one of
17220s	those going into the finals from the
17221s	oper racket yeah someone from everywhere
17223s	stepped up seemingly and and I think
17224s	that's what you sort of would have
17225s	expected I think we always come into
17227s	these competitions and think you know we
17228s	we we sort of Stack the biggest names up
17230s	there and think oh that this team's
17231s	going to call that team's going to call
17232s	this always going to be some form of
17234s	disappointment and I think there will be
17235s	some teams that thought ah you know what
17237s	this hasn't been the best day for us
17239s	yeah we have the lower bracket but we
17240s	wanted to get it done in the upper but
17242s	even with that being said I I think I've
17243s	definitely seen what I expected to see
17245s	from a lot of the better teams the
17247s	better players the big names the fan
17249s	favorites of course even from what we've
17250s	seen from the crowd here today when when
17252s	they were more in there a lot of people
17253s	G to the toilet it seems um but when
17255s	they were here right the noise was was
17257s	was crazy so I think all in all man that
17259s	the players who will be playing tomorrow
17261s	uh definitely have to come in and maybe
17263s	adjust some things but it it's been a
17265s	great day for sure let's take a look at
17266s	some of those players we'll start kind
17268s	of on the bubble and this actually this
17270s	final game was a fight for that top 25
17273s	spot uh ultimately it was I drop and
17275s	Mappy that do make it through through to
17279s	the low or the I'm sorry Grand finals on
17281s	Sunday but take a look at some of these
17284s	names here here down to 34th that are
17286s	going to be seeing we'll be seeing go
17288s	tomorrow fad actually for a moment one
17291s	moment overtook the 25th spot and it
17294s	looked like it was going to be locked in
17297s	but just barely falling short a single
17299s	point making the difference how do we
17300s	have two teams a single point behind
17304s	25th there in that 33rd spot I saw pink
17307s	and V want to talk about them very very
17309s	quickly cuz I'm expecting that they will
17311s	have the opportunity to be uncontested
17313s	in the lower brackets tomorrow so I'm
17315s	assuming it'll be a little bit better of
17316s	a day for them yeah 100% right they're
17318s	more accustomed to to sort of dealing
17320s	with that situation where they'll have
17322s	access to all the loot right and all
17323s	that space in that area but of course if
17326s	you are any of these teams that they
17327s	will be feeling a bit disappointed you
17329s	have to be able to just mentally come
17331s	back into tomorrow I think the big thing
17332s	is it's obviously going to be a very
17334s	different Lobby tomorrow we have a whole
17336s	new set of teams coming in a bunch of
17337s	players who may have been contested
17339s	today uncontested like in the case of
17340s	pink and voco some players who maybe
17342s	were uncontested today might be
17344s	contested somewh right so it's like you
17346s	know you're almost coming into not a
17347s	whole different tournament but it's
17348s	going to feel that way in the lobby at
17349s	times is there more pressure going into
17353s	tomorrow obviously the 25 in the lower
17355s	bra pick have been watching they've been
17357s	learning they've been trying to figure
17358s	things out players that have gone from
17360s	today now to the lower bracket is that
17362s	more pressure is it maybe like okay I'm
17364s	warmed up so let me just kind of change
17366s	a couple things and we're good I think
17367s	from a format wise it has to be more
17369s	pressure right like it just has to be
17371s	but more games right five games under
17374s	the belt now on the international stage
17376s	they got to be feeling a little bit more
17378s	comfortable when it comes to the setups
17379s	the crowd and the lights yeah I think
17380s	there'll be more pressure because of
17382s	course these teams were expected to go
17383s	through they were the upper bracket
17384s	teams a lot of the lower bracket teams
17386s	some of those guys don't have that Land
17387s	Experience but for the teams who didn't
17390s	quite do it today in your head you're
17391s	thinking oh top 25 that's pretty easy I
17393s	can get that you didn't right so now
17394s	you're almost second guessing yourself
17396s	it's not easy to get top 25 yeah this is
17399s	I mean what 75 of the best Duos in the
17402s	world right this was going to be a
17404s	difficult task some Duos took full
17406s	advantage I'm looking at you guys in EU
17409s	EU you know who you are quezy vano s
17411s	Cammy uh but still we have to keep
17414s	focused right we cannot skip a beat now
17416s	we're going to take a little break here
17417s	because Kelly is standing by in the
17419s	Creator lounge with none other than
17421s	peach cobbler that is right Zeke peach

17465s	blessing like I feel like each year epic
17468s	just steps it up one level after the
17470s	next and it got me hooked on seeing the
17473s	Live Events like being here is nothing
17474s	like being at home and speaking of Epic
17476s	will you were actually sitting behind
17477s	the parents what is it like to see you

17498s	watch some incredible competition today
17499s	was there any surprises for you oh my
17501s	gosh I feel like fortnite in general is
17503s	just full of surprises like the loot
17505s	pool or what people land on a lot of the
17507s	50/50s had me like jaw-dropping shocked
17510s	and it was just exciting to see Canada
17511s	go against maluka and Thomas and just
17514s	like it was it was amazing very I I know
17517s	I I can't believe that it's already over

17542s	expectations going into tomorrow uh we
17544s	don't want to get too kind of deep into
17546s	it cuz we'll have all day tomorrow to
17548s	break all of it down but now that we
17550s	know which duels will be moving to
17552s	tomorrow I kind of wanted to kind of get
17553s	your thoughts
17554s	are there Duos in the lower bracket as
17557s	we take a look at this list just give me
17559s	one one from each of you just a little
17561s	just a little taste little more uh
17564s	Savage in the deal it has to be right
17567s	you know Mr Savage all the fans in the
17570s	world clearly right everybody loves Mr
17571s	Savage and of course the same for theal
17573s	all the pressure is going to be on them
17574s	to perform for their fans and I think
17576s	they'll deliver Hey L we we were hanging
17578s	out a little bit with some of the fans
17579s	and as they are walking around I believe
17580s	I heard this uh multiple times quote
17582s	unquote clicks is is going to win so I'm
17586s	sure the arena will be absolutely crazy
17588s	tomorrow seeing him compete so I'll be
17590s	excited for that as well I've got to
17592s	round this out agers and Canada right
17594s	having this crazy 50/50 off spawn today
17598s	didn't work out but that's okay this is
17600s	agers this is Canada they are fncs
17603s	champions for a reason I will put my
17605s	faith in that hat of course as we begin
17608s	to wrap things up how did you feel about
17610s	the day absolutely awesome I think
17612s	everybody crushed it out there it was
17613s	pretty much exactly what we were hoping
17615s	for out of an upper bracket right some I
17618s	feel like we saw a lot of strategies
17619s	actually come out and then some others
17621s	you know look like towards the back end
17623s	of the day a lot of those top end teams
17625s	kind of decided to kind of pull it back
17626s	a little bit right and relax so that
17628s	means that they're not really putting
17629s	everything out there which means that
17631s	they'll be ready for finals yeah 100% I
17632s	I I think everything in the server has
17635s	been unbelievable what you'd expect the
17637s	crowd has been amazing I think for me
17638s	personally seeing Zeke you know sort of
17640s	on the stage for the stage if you right
17642s	the lasts go down every chearing he look
17644s	like the coldest man in all of Denmark
17646s	in that moment man he he just looked way
17648s	too cool I think more of that from you
17650s	and and and I'd be happy okay anyway uh
17653s	as we as we start prepping for tomorrow
17655s	why don't we send it up to the cast to
17657s	get their thoughts on the
17659s	day thoughts I have so many of these
17662s	thoughts from watching the first three
17664s	games in the crowd this amazing crowd
17666s	that's been so great all day long to
17668s	Casting these final two all I really got
17670s	to say Taco is for those 25 teams that
17672s	are playing again tomorrow look at it as
17674s	glass half full you have another
17676s	opportunity to make your dreams come
17678s	true just don't take it lightly oh look
17680s	the lower bracket was already looking
17682s	pretty spicy as is so seeing some of the
17684s	teams that are going to be joining them
17686s	after today's competition it is going to
17689s	be insane for tomorrow's lower bracket
17691s	matches and one of my favorite Parts
17693s	personally about today was being up here
17695s	in the commentary Booth the entire time
17697s	and just hearing the moments of cheering
17700s	the crowd chant I cannot wait to see
