3s what's up for tonight fam it's me Zeke
5s today we're taking a look at a bod
7s review out of Na West we're hopping into
9s a game with Leno epic whale and
10s symmetrical we also have a very special
13s guest master d face so let's get started
16s and hop into this Vadra view hey guys
19s Moss D face here it looks like we're
21s jumping into week fours festivities we
24s got the winning team the winning trio
26s symmetrical epic whale and Leno once
29s again they're landing at loot Lake which
30s is gonna be a big surprise for a lot of
32s people because this week's not retail
34s row hot spot what do you thing about
35s that Zeke uh yeah man this is a very
38s unique drop coming from this trio you
41s know we're very well aware that retail
44s is is where people like to go you know
46s it can very much energize your early
48s game heading into mid game there but
50s this trio coming out of any west or like
52s you know what we're going to loot Lake
53s what's crazy here is this completely
55s uncontested we saw some metrical end
58s Westside factories well here is gonna
60s land on the east side which is basically
62s that Watchtower area and then north side
64s of loot Lake the modern house we're
67s gonna see Leno and starting the game
68s he's gonna start with a gold pop go
71s excuse me a gold tackle shotgun yeah and
75s this is uh this is a pretty strong
76s loadout like you said for early game but
78s like for them it's uncontested and I
80s would say a big part of the map being so
83s uncontested especially in these open
84s qualification formats is because they're
86s stronger landing points so if I'm gonna
88s pull a first-place out of somewhat of a
91s non meta landing area it shows that it's
94s all about playing smart and and making
96s it through your early games that's
97s exactly what they're gonna do here
98s they're gonna set up
99s so in today's bar review we'll be
101s jumping you know pivotal moments and
103s early game is extremely pivotal you can
105s see that they also don't waste any time
107s they take a nice wide spread here
109s symmetrical landing factories making
111s sure that he's gonna cap out on loot and
113s one of the big things about loot Lake is
115s that rift to go you can always use that
117s rift to get anywhere on the map from
119s here out so they basically get first I
121s would say two three zones for free yeah
123s and I mean they're maximizing their
125s efficiency around Blue Lake right even
128s taking a look at epic well right now he
130s has four half shield so he's basically
132s gonna guarantee that his team is top
134s symetrical is the only one that would
136s need it because Leno is already there
137s but I mean just to think about like how
140s crazy it is to land uncontested at loot
143s Lake I mean you met you brought it
145s brought it up that that middle rifts
147s that Riz zone that people can use to
148s navigate away from this which they are
151s gonna use they're gonna use it to go a
153s little bit toward dusty in just a moment
155s but like I couldn't have asked for like
159s a much better starting you know what I
160s mean yeah yeah when you have a free
163s rotation to anywhere on the map that
164s means that the entire map is your
166s playground you will be able to kind of
167s get to any point so that you get first
170s dibs on big mountains first dibs on
172s third parties first dibs on you know
174s beating the storm surge per say a lot of
176s these players put this into their play
179s style so when it comes down to how they
180s rotate and where they go you know next
183s so in this specific example here
185s symmetrical and crew they're going
187s straight for the divot so they've
188s already pretty much capped out on metal
190s looks like this rotation here is so that
192s they can go for more loot and pick up
194s the scraps right because again it's all
196s about having as much gear as you can you
199s want to put the shots down you've got to
201s have that ammunition that's right and
203s and their early game was pretty much
204s largely uncontested so what we're gonna
206s do is we're gonna skip forward in time
208s and see how things are going right now
210s they are near pressure plant that word
213s is so hard to say here in storm circle
215s to the storm is starting to move so now
217s they have to kind of identify where
219s they're gonna kind of bolster up their
220s defenses I like what they do here they
223s are gonna start moving up and just kind
224s of camp out on top of the volcano it's a
226s great view of basically the entire left
229s half of pressure plant there is another
232s team contesting that's kind of what
233s they're pinging out those you see those
234s markers coming out they don't want to
236s take these fights though I mean like
238s looking at the load out that symmetrical
239s has like they could very well engage
242s these guys right but I like that they're
244s they're deciding that this isn't the
246s fight for them they want to play for
247s late-game and that's kind of what
248s they're gonna show us here as we kind of
250s move out through this replay but you
252s know what more importantly to that
254s entire rotation the initial rotation
256s they're only just now using materials so
259s they had free rein of rotate and that's
261s one of the perks like we said of having
263s the rift to get to you know the early
265s places first
266s they went to divot so they had
267s they were able to tap out of materials
270s and they had the next dip on the first
272s rotations to the next zone so here they
273s are outside the volcano and again
275s they're near max material yes they are
278s setting up a little bit of a tactic here
280s you guys will see coming up here it is
282s this grenade chuck right here was
283s discovered recently in the community
285s what you do is you split the grenades
286s and you have a perfect 70 meter explode
289s Raney a radius which is undefendable so
292s you see right there they're setting up
293s procedures and they may not walk away
296s with any tags or anything here but it's
298s still these these setups that allow them
301s to find success throughout their games
302s and of course that rotating for free
304s means that they can set up again huge
306s bases moving forwards yeah I mean they
309s didn't get anything out of that splode
311s tactic it's a great tactic but in the
313s end like we see some of that being
314s reinforced with brick and some of it
316s earlier on was reinforced with metal so
318s you're trading a few grenades for put
320s like a pretty good chance at
321s eliminations and if even if you don't
323s get them you're trading out a bunch of
324s that enemies materials they also there's
327s no way they want to push them now like
329s look at them they're there on the open
330s they're just jumping they're not
331s building and that's because they
333s basically a stamp established their
334s dominance saying look we are that we are
336s the stronger team right now so if you'd
337s like to take this fight we're ready when
339s you are please shoot first yeah it's
342s exactly what they're doing specially
343s when they use that heavy sniper so
344s symmetrical put in you know a little bit
346s of damage down which Kent can gain a
348s great you can gain the attention of your
349s opponents but you also gain the peak
351s respect so a lot of people are gonna be
352s very cautious when they decide to turn
355s back and fire and they're doing it again
356s right here they're just getting those
358s free rotations moving across just really
361s using the natural terrain here to stay
363s out of the line of fire and now that you
365s know there is some threat here they're
367s gonna collapse on top of one another
368s they're looking to siege up on their
369s next opponent these are great early
372s rotates guys if you're looking to learn
373s how to rotate this is what these reviews
375s are for you really want to focus on how
377s teams maneuver the map and they do a
379s perfect job of conserving material and
382s not wasting not wasting any time are
384s waiting till last minute to set up
385s sieges and even just the formation right
388s how they're moving Leno being at the
389s back you know he's got that infantry
392s rifle that he can used to put down shots
393s he even has the minigun to kind of help
395s his teammates he even they even had
397s leftover grenades right so they could
399s they could push on this team now there
401s not gonna get any eliminations out of it
402s but there again it's just more about
404s like establishing themselves and letting
405s the lobby know like look we are the ones
407s dictating what you can and can't do
409s right now if you'd like to see this one
411s I'll go ahead this one know that yeah
413s this one was actually very important so
414s that early rotate allowed them to get
416s right on top of opponent and he actually
418s hits a crucial heavy sniper this is that
420s this is a huge this is actually a huge
422s pickup because look they're gonna be
423s able to replenish all their loot and
425s more importantly they don't even get
426s greedy here they drop the player get get
429s one elem just one and say you know what
431s that's enough for them because now they
433s recap out on gear center map and they
436s just have controlled this area and the
438s other team they left them they left
439s those teammates just kind of - like you
441s know scatter off and now they just have
443s a strong spot in the middle but it's not
445s getting greedy right because they know
446s they're in the middle of the map there's
448s a lot of players are gonna be looking if
449s they make any more you know bring any
452s more attention to themselves that's how
453s you get a server to collapse on you so
455s even the patience here is uh is really
457s showing on this trio yeah and there is
459s that that brute very close by that is
462s probably gonna be drawing a little more
464s aggro just just a little bit but at the
466s same time like them just understanding
468s kind of how to move how to basically
470s just disappear into the shadows when
471s they need to is really good for them and
474s even here right like they're they have
476s this angle down on top of the lobby
478s which is gonna help them a lot because
480s again it's just about trying to dictate
482s the pace right if you can tell someone
484s look you know I want to take this fight
485s or we're not taking this fight or
487s basically you could just sit in your box
488s because if you peek we will drop the
490s elimination on your face you're gonna
493s basically tell the entire lobby how to
495s play your game right because if you're
497s on the other end it's like well I want
499s to move or like man we should kind of do
501s these things and you're like I can't
502s because this enemy trio is they have the
504s beat on us if we try to do anything
506s they're ready to pounce so they're
508s they're really good at kind of telling
510s the entire Lobby what and how basically
513s this this game is gonna be played out
514s the circle now is gonna move a little
517s bit west of them it's not that far away
519s though they kind of have a launch pad
520s they have some you resources but I don't
523s know I feel like they're so well
524s established even now in the game I mean
526s 54 players still left in the lobby and
529s they don't by the way they're moving it
531s they don't look scared at all no they're
533s not they're absolutely not
534s oh this
535s this is another important rotate here so
537s it only took them about a minute to
538s decide you know what we're gonna hit our
539s early rotation this is one thing that
541s trios make huge mistakes on they wait
544s until last moment until the storms
545s moving to get a really capitalized on
552s timing these rotations here so watch
554s that they go nice and early to even have
556s 20 seconds to spare to make it to the
557s next zone and then there that means that
559s they have a fool at least minute to
561s fight until the next zone pressures the
562s mouth so that's how they get to this
564s next location nice and early and some
566s that you're gonna notice coming up is
568s the way they focus teamfights I don't
570s think I've ever done a Vadra view like
571s this before where I see a squad actually
574s focus one layer up teams so most of the
577s time teams that are in the low ground
579s are fighting you know left to right
580s right they're just fighting their
582s circumference on the bottom layers they
583s don't ever pay too much focus on the
585s high ground teams this team specifically
587s will focus squads that are above them
589s that's gonna come shortly and you guys
592s are gonna see how important that is
593s because it allows them to set up these
594s really great rotates and that's what I
597s think they shined in this week on the
599s rod yeah I mean what's cool about that
603s as well and it's like a lot of people
605s don't really the first instinct is who
609s is on my lair who is to my left who is
611s to my right Who am I gonna have to flow
613s if you're trying to push up or down
615s you're gonna catch a lot of people
617s off-guard and I mean that's not this
620s tactic isn't always like the right thing
622s to do sometimes you do not want to do
624s that but what I like about this trio
626s specifically is they know when to do
627s that even right here right they pick up
628s hunter and they just you know for it cuz
630s like look at these guys he had no idea
632s they they literally were unsuspecting
634s the moment they come around they're like
635s okay you've caught us completely
637s off-guard what are we supposed to do
639s here they even try to go for the shield
641s bubble which just doesn't pan out right
643s like they've already pushed in your box
644s they've already in your face there's not
646s much you can do at that point to it's
648s like in you reacting and dropping the
650s shield bubble it's basically giving them
652s more like it's giving them the
653s information they want like these guys
655s are scared they're so scared they're
656s trying to pop a shield bubble they don't
658s realize we're actually on top of them
660s they've basically wasted an action and
662s this gives them even more confidence
664s even more fuel to keep moving forward
665s yep and that's exactly what I was
667s talking about so they
669s focus the team one layer up they pick a
671s player up and they only get two of them
673s and they let the third one go again just
675s exercise in patience which we saw in the
677s previous fight they got one big you know
679s one big elem it helped them cap off
681s materials and then they chilled here
683s they catch to the other person escapes
685s and they say you know what we're not
685s gonna get greedy we've already taken
687s your your lair right this is our spot
689s now and they get all this loot umm so
692s now the zones gonna reveal itself you
693s have a big rotation to make they set up
695s the perfect kind of low launch bed and
697s they've just been doing an excellent job
700s at getting to the next own first so
702s right here they get edge down they're
704s gonna chill and their next rotation once
706s again is gonna be for them to capitalize
708s on material so this is where they they
710s spend you know 20 seconds getting to the
712s zone and then one minute fighting again
714s that's how they pick up so many limbs
715s and just just again dictate the pace of
718s the battle here so now that they get to
719s the zone early they could just fire back
721s at any opponents and mini guns gonna
723s play a huge part in that yeah and even
725s like understanding kind of the layout of
727s where you're landing right because this
729s is this is an area with water right like
732s so you have to basically guarantee
734s certain amount of builds to tarp out
736s over the water if you don't you're at a
739s disadvantage so then getting here
741s earlier and being like okay cool like we
743s know we're gonna have we're gonna be
744s able to see every single person that
746s comes our way because they are forced to
747s build unless they want to sit there and
749s try and submarine their way to us and I
751s promise you no one wants to do that so
753s that's just gonna give them free rein
755s over the lobby free rein over shots and
757s they're just so well established so like
759s the next circle goes a little more
761s Northwest and this is where things are
763s gonna get a little bit dicey but again
765s they're in full control I mean more team
767s shots are gonna guarantee another
768s elimination but uh what you kind of
771s touched on earlier was like this control
773s right like I feel like a lot of a lot of
775s teams that are maybe beginning their
778s fortnight career they they tend to think
779s okay we pick up a person we just have to
782s go full scent and clean up the entirety
784s of that trio or duo or squad or whatever
787s that's not always the case right even
789s just getting one or two and just getting
790s what you need from it and then kind of
791s knowing when to back off is a skill in
794s its own and it is like what can
797s attribute to a lot of people being
799s successful heading into late-game
801s a hundred percent so
802s this right here is a prime example they
804s rotated early now they're set off on a
806s big base with high ground and they're
808s firing it everyone trying to land most
811s most players try to do the textbook wait
813s till the zone comes and then move not
815s these guys the best players will know
817s when to capitalize on early movement
818s that they can set up and be though you
820s know the person on offense instead of
822s defense so all of these players trying
824s to launch pad out is because they've
825s decided they're trying to get to the
827s zone when the zone is safe as opposed to
830s epic will leno and symmetrical here who
832s moved you know seconds earlier and then
835s set up and decide to tarp in instead of
836s using their mobility so this is why
838s they're able to at this point now
840s dominate all other players remember if
842s you have a minigun you have high ground
843s you're firing down really not even just
845s a minigun just any kind of pressure down
847s you're burning all of the crucial
849s materials from your opponent and you're
851s forcing them to use impulses or
852s shockwaves that they don't want to use
854s right normally people want to use shock
856s waves for high ground in this case
857s they're people are trying to shockwave
858s away from them because there's so much
860s pressure coming from the high ground now
862s and even if you don't what I like about
865s this - and some people don't think about
868s it but like even if you're firing
869s downward and in these people this enemy
872s tree or in their box and they're taking
874s shots from above above them someone's
877s trying to punch into their box from the
878s right of the left you're just causing
880s them to panic and like this is a great
882s example right you see they were firing
883s down on that tree oh and then eventually
884s they're like we do switch got a launch
885s pad
886s we're so like uneasy about everything
889s going on around us we don't have enough
890s information we just have to burn
892s something to try and get ourselves out
894s and then that's just information that
895s they're in taking they're like cool that
897s team's down a launch pad and we know
899s where they're going or like that team's
900s at a launch pad and now they're forced
902s to fight the team that we fought a shot
904s at before that that will thin itself out
906s and then we can clean up in a moment
908s like there's just so much so many layers
909s that kind of go into controlling the
912s lobby and dictating the pace of the game
913s and I feel like that's what this trio
915s does very very well and and what they're
918s doing well here although they hold in
919s the high ground on different layers so
921s they're getting a bunch of different
923s angles at the expense of their materials
925s but this is what happens when you are
927s dropping teams in the end game and
929s you're walking into endgame with max
930s materials they did this with no vehicle
932s you know no map this is straight up on
934s foot ground patrol and just
936s being very patient with their battles
939s they take a big Elam that allows them to
940s have max mass and this is why they're
942s able to park the entire endgame and they
944s all have their own layers they all use
946s their own layers in the endgame that's
948s why they have all these angles and
949s they're just cleaning up shop here in
951s the end with all the ammunition they
954s have you know kind of rounded up at this
955s point this is I wanted to say on this
958s specifically because we see symmetrical
959s goes out of the zone with the initial
962s shock wave but then gets himself back in
964s that in itself was very very slick I
967s like it because you kind of hear a
968s shockwave and you don't see any build
971s being destroyed and so initially you
972s think like that player is just gonna be
974s eliminated
974s nope symmetrical comes back in and now
976s there's gonna look to clean up the the
978s last elimination here there is a player
980s knock and this here is gonna be Vinnie
982s in the box now if we saw a little bit of
984s chugs flash come out before so we know
986s as effective HP is very low and
987s inevitably that's what leads them to the
989s victory royale so all in all men like
992s this trio is very very precise they're
995s very methodical and I just love seeing
997s their play yeah 100% they gave a really
1000s good running for edgy and his team
1002s taking away the first place to speak and
1004s that's that's the first time the the
1006s second place team I guess has been
1007s overthrown so that's gonna conclude our
1009s week four thank you guys this is monster
1011s de face I'll see you guys soon that was
1014s an awesome game thanks so much to
1016s monster de face for hanging out and
1017s taking a look at the water view and
1019s again congrats to the trio for their
1021s incredible victory royale now for
1023s tonight fam don't forget we have more
1024s content coming later this week so keep
1026s your eyes peeled until next time
