9s | course Shai wager welcome to the first |
11s | ever Evan CS pre-show so heading into |
13s | week number two we're gonna talk about |
15s | things up and coming in the FNC s trios |
17s | who want to watch and some cool landing |
20s | spots for everyone so you guys know me |
22s | I'm Zeke sundown if you want to say |
23s | hello what's up everyone I'm sundown and |
25s | then we're joined here by the amazing |
27s | man with the plan Xiao Wei just shot how |
29s | you doing today I'm doing great today |
31s | hyped up to talk about everything coming |
33s | up for week 2 what happened in week 1 |
34s | it's gonna be an amazing pre-show whoo |
36s | excited to have you all right let's get |
38s | into the nitty-gritty so um I know me |
41s | and Bala we took a look at that Vaudrey |
43s | broke down let wick flex Enda mentos for |
46s | me they are very scary very interesting |
50s | to a trio to watch and I think if they |
52s | can execute the way they did in that bar |
53s | review I think they could really bring |
55s | some heat and EU this weekend cam maybe |
57s | what's a trio from your perspective to |
59s | keep an eye on I think that's a pretty |
61s | solid one to keep an eye on but given |
63s | they got first I think a lot of people |
65s | are gonna be keeping an eye on him they |
66s | averaged I think it was 2.6 was the |
68s | average placement across the games which |
70s | is just an incredible value particularly |
72s | when 6000 of the best use we're |
74s | competing in Europe there are two |
76s | different trios who I think are worth |
77s | kind of keeping an eye on particularly |
79s | going through doing rod reviews and |
81s | they're looking for improvements from |
82s | last week to this week the first will |
85s | stay an EU chruch epics and beehive that |
88s | entire Swedish cohort up there like they |
90s | know how to play they're very good |
92s | they're very aggressive they dropped a |
94s | lot of placement points just missing out |
96s | on kind of the first X and not hitting |
97s | top eight not hitting top four but if |
99s | they're able to clean up in those I |
101s | think they have some of the kind of like |
103s | highest potential in terms of their |
105s | sealing in elimination power so being |
108s | able to put that together really |
109s | interesting I think they were thirteenth |
111s | last week and then out of Brazil keeping |
114s | an eye on toxic zone and the other King |
118s | they were able to get fifth we're close |
121s | there we saw King it during the World |
122s | Cup just fly around and take everyone by |
125s | storm but it's going to take kind of |
127s | another level to elevate that because |
129s | there is I don't want to say less room |
131s | for individual skill expression in trios |
133s | but |
134s | it takes those individual moments and |
136s | makes it that much harder to pull off |
138s | because every single one of those |
139s | circumstances it's not just your skill |
142s | against the person across from you it's |
144s | you and their two teammates so really |
146s | interested to see how those trios in |
148s | particular because they are relatively |
150s | newly formed right are able to step up |
152s | from week to week okay for me personally |
156s | I have like two different types of |
157s | attitudes to look out in terms of trios |
159s | so the people have already made it I |
161s | mean oh the tops of each reasons for me |
163s | and OCE jesse jordan and bullocks these |
165s | guys on their comms the way they |
167s | actually tarp up and clutch up when one |
168s | person or one cog in the wheel kind of |
170s | gets shaken loose I'm you know kind of |
172s | keep up for each other is amazing how |
174s | the clutches endgame or dope to click |
176s | space and Crim's as well in enemies are |
178s | the same way people who have won we want |
180s | to see if they can keep winning what |
181s | their attitudes are like from a |
182s | confidence standpoint those are there |
184s | the other ones were like teetering on |
186s | the edge you've got Bucky animal and |
187s | aspect who having an insane way to play |
189s | the game I think they were one win |
191s | behind from actually qualifying they |
193s | lost time I think a tiebreaker for |
194s | eighth which is sad but at the same time |
197s | the fuel behind them and what's going on |
199s | behind them is going to be amazing to |
200s | see he's coming weeks they're they're |
202s | one of the top trios for me to to call |
204s | up so I'm excited to see the different |
205s | perspectives of winners keeping their |
207s | spot and people who yet want to qualify |
208s | get those top prizes and the top eight |
211s | for the grand finals coming up as well |
213s | mm-hmm I think another trio that came to |
216s | mind was actually the x2 twins |
218s | Jesse and Jordan and Volks I mean the |
221s | split of seven matches played five |
223s | victory Royales oh yeah that's pretty |
225s | good |
226s | Shane yeah like we said their average |
227s | placement was one point five seven was |
230s | the best in the entirety of the FA NCS |
232s | week one that mental is definitely gonna |
234s | creep up to because before everyone's |
236s | kind of used to like that ten week |
237s | format literally two months and a few |
239s | more weeks till you know it's it's a |
241s | nice easy pace in the beginning but like |
243s | we're one fifth of the way done getting |
245s | into the second fifth we're almost |
246s | halfway so like there's no time to |
249s | dilly-dally you gotta you gotta be on |
250s | your stuff you got to be grinding |
252s | literally every day properly mentally |
254s | physically everything |
255s | next up and wrap things up why don't we |
258s | talk about maybe just a few drops pots |
260s | that we think really benefit trios what |
263s | do you guys think you guys had your eye |
264s | on some I've been looking at a couple |
266s | but I'll let I'll let |
268s | I opened this one up yeah I think we all |
270s | know the best one it's been going around |
272s | Twitter who's been going around my dad's |
274s | emails apparently doesn't play for |
275s | tonight he knows about it |
276s | retail ro is the king of drought spots |
279s | right now with all the launch pads the |
281s | gold weapons all the lutes and |
283s | apparently now all the trio's who land |
285s | there so contested all the time that the |
288s | people who usually land there around |
290s | lining other places and rotating in to |
291s | clean up because it's that hectic it's |
293s | that much of a deathmatch it's like the |
295s | old tilted towers of season five six |
298s | where everyone just landed there wanted |
300s | to do whatever they wanted to do and |
301s | then get out of the game so I think that |
303s | is the strongest job spot at the moment |
304s | just with all the loot that comes in |
306s | with the zombies your shield and mow all |
308s | the mats available and old retail as |
309s | well there's metal brick wood everything |
312s | is there for you to get most contested |
315s | spot and the best one on the map in my |
316s | opinion so I agree with you there in |
321s | terms of just like the rock quality of |
323s | loot but like as we've been seeing the |
327s | like if you're able to win retail |
329s | consistently through those like four or |
331s | five teams that are there awesome don't |
333s | but not everyone is as good as Benji |
335s | mutual at mongrel right and we even saw |
338s | there the one time they lose the fight |
339s | granted metrio miss played right like |
342s | they should have had that and should |
343s | have been out clean and it would have |
344s | been fine and probably could have been |
345s | their W but wait you're banking on the |
348s | fact that not only are you able to put |
350s | up with the cube bounces on like the |
352s | harassment there and you'll have time to |
353s | get the loot but then you're also better |
355s | than the other teams who are there |
356s | trying to get the loot and everyone |
358s | who's trying to come and rotate through |
359s | I'm a big proponent of finding rotations |
363s | that you're able to get consistent |
364s | gameplay off and then get loot paths |
367s | that aren't I don't want to say aren't |
369s | reliant on RNG but you're able to kind |
371s | of pivot your choices as you go through |
374s | so it's like oh no drift boards spawned |
376s | here well this drop SWAT isn't |
377s | completely muffed because I have zip |
379s | lines and I can rotate up the pressure |
380s | plan that's gonna lead me into what my |
382s | favorite drops what is right now for |
383s | trios is it's the split drop spot up at |
386s | hot springs with a little fishy is the |
388s | science area that's just to the right of |
390s | it and then the science outpost that is |
393s | to the left there is I believe there's a |
395s | ton in the observatories to the right in |
397s | between that and so many steps there's |
398s | like eight or nine driftwood spawns that |
400s | are in there |
401s | there's one drift board spawn and a |
403s | vending spawn down by the hot springs |
404s | there's four chest spawns between the |
406s | fish in the hot springs as well as the |
408s | dry wood which is about 15 wood per |
410s | swing so you can actually get 500 wood |
412s | right in that area and as continue going |
415s | west there is another 500 little like |
417s | brick mine they can end up hitting up |
419s | there that has three possible chest |
422s | spawns up there and a bunch of floor |
424s | wood and an additional drift board and |
426s | the benefit here is with all the drift |
428s | board spots and how spread out you are |
430s | there's decent kind of ways you can |
432s | break the lines of fire so if you do get |
434s | caught out you have a kind of regroup |
436s | and go together but as long as you're |
438s | not getting like a far southwest a zone |
441s | you could pretty much rotate everywhere |
443s | moderately safety without crossing by |
445s | the super major loop paths and I think |
448s | this is a key thing for trios and we've |
450s | seen this be established and the vaad |
452s | review shall we adjourn and I did for |
454s | Brazil this team took a very similar |
456s | loop path move north moved into pressure |
458s | plant and then pressure allows you to |
459s | kind of use that glider to rotate around |
461s | and we've seen so many of the Twitter |
463s | posts out there being like oh here we're |
465s | all seven of my zones today and you see |
467s | there across the map if you're able to |
469s | eliminate kind of one of those factors |
471s | right and you know on your drop spot |
473s | that even if the zone pulls as far as |
475s | possible away that we're gonna be able |
477s | to comfortably rotate because of where |
479s | we are and because the stuff that is on |
481s | the map then that for me allows you to |
483s | get into a rhythm it allows you to play |
485s | the game whereas if you're constantly |
486s | contesting retail or I don't think |
489s | anybody in their right mind right now is |
490s | contesting Tilted town when all of this |
492s | is going on like contesting one of those |
495s | spots where there is you know there's |
497s | going to be good loot but you know there |
498s | is going to be action like I just take |
501s | that inconsistency take that variable |
503s | way get yourself established in the |
505s | early game and as we say all the time |
507s | play for late particularly in trios like |
509s | if you're not winning matches you're not |
511s | gonna take that top spot home and most |
514s | importantly mostly these guys who are |
515s | qualifying are winning at least a match |
517s | we aren't really seeing trios qualify |
519s | through without taking a victory route |
521s | at some point and if you're not |
523s | consistently making late games that's |
525s | not gonna happen |
527s | well I think that about wraps up the |
530s | video do you want to get some final |
531s | words before we sign off sorry with you |
533s | so no final words you know I'm excited |
536s | to see who is able to step up their game |
539s | there were so many different players who |
541s | said you know what my time will come |
542s | after the World Cup I didn't make it |
544s | there but I'm looking to continue going |
546s | for it and who was able to put in the |
548s | practice who is able to battle through |
549s | all the adversity and still come out on |
552s | top because you would think with all the |
554s | changes everything going through we're |
556s | not seeing the same names but it's the |
558s | same names in the same players who are |
560s | occupying it we talked about how in |
561s | every one those regions is the same five |
563s | to ten teams who are always up there |
565s | grand and there are a couple who are |
567s | challenging up there but with trios in |
569s | particular there is a hard line of it's |
571s | like hey you must be this tall to be one |
574s | of the best in the region and it's being |
575s | very clear I'm interested to see who's |
578s | able to challenge and kind of buck that |
579s | trend and really establish it who is |
582s | able to kind of man up from week one to |
584s | week two and then who's also able to |
586s | keep their level the same what about you |
588s | shy for me it's more of that second |
591s | point to keep the level the same I'm |
592s | thinking about all the old heads who are |
594s | now the week 1 champs I just want them |
597s | to keep their spot they've had a taste |
599s | of that price will taste of success but |
601s | every single time things happen |
603s | it gets shaken up the biggest thing is |
605s | what I wanted to mention earlier was |
606s | some duo's qualified very last second |
609s | switching up their partners the whole |
610s | consistency point thing right I'm trying |
612s | to see how that plays out the risk |
614s | people are gonna take the shoot for top |
615s | eight or try to better their trio |
617s | because that's never been seen in |
618s | fortnight we've had a culture of kind of |
620s | you know you're not working out that's |
622s | fine it's okay leave on good terms I'll |
623s | find a new partner but now it's a |
625s | three-man effort to better each and |
627s | every person learn every single role if |
629s | you want to do it the most consistent |
631s | way I'm just excited to see the options |
633s | and how people hold their ground and |
635s | once again take it as well that's right |
638s | well thank you guys so much for hanging |
640s | out Shai Thank You sundown thank you as |
641s | well best of luck to everyone |
643s | participating this weekend in week |
645s | number two of the offense yes and of |
647s | course we can't wait to see you guys on |
648s | the battle bus til next time |
