572s | finals where I made five thousand |
574s | dollars and that was the first earnings |
576s | I'd ever made in fortnite it was an |
578s | in-person event it was my first |

598s | I've never won anything like that in my |
599s | life I want like a raffle once not a |

603s | yeah |
604s | you're not growing enough bag of candy |
606s | so that's basically but you guys I mean |
609s | just just just crushing life there but I |
611s | mean you know scram you you know your |
613s | your illustrious career today has been |
615s | amazing you've got is it 11 fncs Grand |
617s | finals and the 2019 World Cup Duos as |
620s | well I mean that is a a hefty a hefty |
623s | kind of array of accolades you've got |
625s | today I mean are there particular |
627s | moments that stand out for you like my |
629s | highlights the things that kind of like |
630s | you know kind of really rise to the |
631s | surface you think about your kind of |
632s | greatest moments that you've had today I |
634s | mean World Cup must be one of them as |
636s | well for like competing in that yeah I |
638s | feel like uh one of the best moments in |
640s | my career was like second week World Cup |
642s | where we were like I believe like 25 |
645s | points behind of course uh and last game |
647s | I managed to like solo teammate died uh |
651s | solo cluster qual uh to get us fourth |
654s | place which was the qualifying |
656s | spot for World Cup and I think that has |
658s | to be like at least one of the greatest |
660s | moments if if not the greatest in my |
662s | career |
664s | that's awesome I mean I mean that that's |
666s | I always because I always imagine that |
668s | that happens to Carter you know there's |
670s | there's moments I guess for for pros |
672s | when they obviously it defines you kind |
674s | of your history your personal history |
675s | within the game itself |
677s | um anything else that sticks out for you |
678s | in terms of like big moments that you |
679s | either witnessed you've been there for |
681s | that happened to you what kind of sticks |
682s | out for you |
684s | yeah I mean I was just listening to |
687s | scram with the World Cup and it brings |
688s | back some memories I remember week one |
691s | of World Cup solos I actually got first |
693s | place in the semi-finals on n a and then |
697s | I kind of threw and got 11th place or |
700s | 12th Place in the finals and in week two |
702s | Duos I got sixth place but that since |
705s | they were the first weeks and nobody |
707s | else had qualified that wasn't enough |
708s | qualifying spots later I got Ninth Place |
711s | again in Duos and I was so close |
714s | but I didn't make it but you know it was |
716s | a good experience I still made a lot of |
718s | earnings from the qualifier week so I |
719s | was I was happy with my world cup |
721s | experience it was enjoyable |
723s | I mean I guess you learn from these |
725s | things as well be the high the highest |
726s | analysis you learn along the way and you |
728s | kind of that experience kind of like it |
729s | galvanizes you pushes you on uh moving |
732s | forward too but I mean when when with |
734s | regards to the the practice that you |
736s | that you guys have to go through when it |
737s | comes to like the major tournaments I |
738s | mean |
739s | scram like what's what's your kind of |
740s | regime what's your kind of how do you |
741s | kind of work towards a tournament you |
742s | have kind of a set way of doing things |
744s | you have like I don't know Lucky Charms |
746s | things that you do like kind of like |
747s | that you that give you kind of the best |
749s | chances of going through and and taking |
751s | the dub |
752s | I mean I used to have during World Cup |
754s | when I qualified I played like my high |
756s | school hoodie and that used to be like |
758s | my my lucky charm |
760s | I'll put on the high school hoodie I |
762s | knew it was time and it was game time so |
765s | now I don't think I have any like lucky |
767s | charm that sense I think you just gotta |
769s | phrase enough man it's got to keep your |
771s | cool nothing that's what were you |
772s | allowed to wash the hoodie did it have |
774s | to remain no no never watched it man |
776s | never was never watched it |
778s | that's hilarious |
782s | I am I had these red shorts and I swear |
785s | every single tournament I played I would |
788s | put on my red shorts It's actually such |
791s | like a real thing that even like when |
793s | I'm you know streaming or making content |
795s | I have like these Channel points that |
796s | you can you know activate and the |
798s | highest Channel points is I'll send you |
800s | those red shorts but it's like 100 |
802s | million Channel points right and it's |
803s | like those are the world those are the |
805s | red shorts I use the World Cup quals |
807s | those the ones I used in the Skirmish |
809s | days like those are the red shorts so |
811s | you know it's kind of powerful little |
814s | thing I've got in my closet that you |
815s | know when the time comes I can whip them |
818s | out again but so far they're they're |
819s | hidden for now |
821s | okay the red shorts I mean we have our |
823s | own tradition to Castro so whenever we |
825s | get a chance they're going to be |
826s | together in the same space for likes of |
827s | fncs and things we always say |
828s | opportunity a tuna sandwich together |
830s | tuna salad smoothie that's that's oh |
832s | yeah I love it it's definitely a thing |
835s | um a bit weird thing but it's a thing |
837s | um I mean like you know practice wise as |
840s | well you are you are you grinding hard |
841s | as well scrambled I mean presumably you |
844s | are but are you kind of you know are you |
846s | constant do you give yourself a bit of a |
847s | I guess a break as well kind of you kind |
849s | of ease yourself into a kind of |
851s | competition what's your kind of your |
852s | methodology behind going into going into |
854s | comps yeah I think like for now since I |
858s | unfortunately didn't qualify for uh the |
860s | global Championship we'll talk about |
861s | later |
862s | um I think this is like the best time to |
863s | kind of take a bit of ease uh during |
866s | tournaments it's like normally just like |
868s | practice every single day play like all |
869s | the ice cream sessions and obviously the |
872s | attorneys and yeah I think that's like |
874s | how do we do during that time and then |
876s | do like basically you put all the time |
878s | into that in those weeks so now uh I'm |
881s | taking a bit easy but I'm obviously |
883s | still keeping keeping it up |
887s | are you are you are you similar to you |
890s | have like a kind of way that you go |
892s | about business before you you know you |
894s | would go into competitions |
896s | before competitions I had a very um |
898s | strict routine which was you know |
900s | nowadays you might be on your phone a |
903s | little bit before going to bed not |
904s | getting enough sleep I like tried as |
906s | hard as I could to get more than eight |
908s | hours and then I found out this is kind |
911s | of a learning through experience there'd |
912s | be some days I'd be like all right I |
913s | want to eat a lot of food so you know |
915s | I'm full and I don't get hungry through |
916s | the tournament so I'd like eat a burger |
918s | but then I'd just be like uh I'd be like |
921s | so like tired the whole tournament so |
922s | then I started eating kind of smaller |
925s | meals that are more protein focused and |
927s | not as much carb focused so then I'd |
929s | still like kind of have energy and I |
930s | wouldn't feel too tired so get a lot of |
932s | sleep eat something that's not too heavy |
934s | and then I promise you'll perform a lot |
936s | better than if you sleep two hours and |
938s | eat a burger |
945s | obviously I mentioned it at the |
947s | beginning of our show here that the |
949s | Manchester City shirt |
950s | um you are a Manchester City player I |
952s | mean I I think it's a lot of I guess a |
954s | lot of the the listeners the viewers |
955s | here uh of the drop spot I would be as |
958s | curious as I am about how that kind of |
959s | how that works really when you kind of |
960s | yo because when you sign to a club as as |
962s | prolific as the likes of Manchester City |
965s | um what is what does it mean for you as |
967s | a as a player on the team like are you |
968s | hanging out with players are you getting |
969s | a chance to go to go to games like |
971s | what's what what you're kind of like uh |
973s | what is it what is a day in the life of |
974s | someone who plays a Manchester City like |
976s | yourself I mean I'd love to say that |
977s | I've just I'm just chilling with the |
979s | with the playoffs on a daily basis but |
981s | unfortunately I am not uh I have been |
984s | lucky enough to meet the Kevin De bruyne |
986s | once uh doing one of uh |
988s | one of our practice sessions down there |
991s | um and yeah we get to watch the games we |
994s | have to represent Nancy which is |
995s | obviously a great organization with a |
998s | very professional employees so uh I'm |
1000s | really happy to be there and then along |
1002s | with my teammates uh tripping and |
1004s | threats well I mean the the great |
1005s | teammates so yeah it's crazy to |
1007s | represent such a big organization |
1010s | it's very cool very cool I mean I can I |
1013s | can see you playing competing for a team |
1014s | I think it's definitely still in the |
1016s | cards for you my friend it's in the |
1018s | cards and the cards being cooked up |
1019s | being cooked up somewhere somewhere one |
1022s | day so let's do right now not burnt yet |
1025s | I mean but I mean you know I guess as |
1027s | well you know to be to be you know you |
1030s | know elected to play for a club like Man |
1032s | City you know to have the kind of like |
1033s | the success you've had has it been a |
1035s | thing that you that you kind of defiant |
1036s | that has been the definitive kind of I |
1038s | guess skill or or wait approach or |
1041s | attribute that you have as well scram |
1043s | that's kind of given you the the success |
1046s | you've had in in fortnite you think it's |
1047s | something that separates you and I I |
1048s | want to use Takata as well because |
1050s | obviously you've done so much in the |
1051s | game and done so well uh in competitions |
1053s | as well scram first what what's been the |
1056s | kind of um there's a running factor for |
1058s | you |
1059s | I think for me is always like as long as |
1061s | I put enough work and you whenever you |
1064s | add these events like you socialize with |
1065s | all the players you make sure to like |
1067s | meet your friends hang out with them as |
1068s | well not just like only talk about the |
1070s | game and play together uh I think that |
1073s | keeps your brain really healthy and like |
1075s | you cannot motivates you |
1077s | um but yeah man just like running and |
1079s | pricing with the 10 intent all the time |
1081s | I think that's sort of want to get you |
1083s | to to high level uh and obviously as I |
1086s | would give advice to anyone like |
1088s | watching other pros play see what they |
1090s | do kind of like try and replicate it I |
1092s | think that's also like a really good |
1093s | factor to help you improve I love what |
1096s | you said there scram grinding with |
1097s | intent now I think that's very important |
1100s | and even to focus on that you could play |
1101s | eight hours a day but if you're playing |
1103s | eight hours a day without thinking or |
1104s | without improving something it's like |
1106s | playing one hour of improving |
1108s | consistently and really focusing on |
1110s | getting better uh if I were to you know |
1112s | give some examples too from back in the |
1114s | day you know there's a lot of important |
1115s | factors that come into play one of them |
1117s | is also you know friend groups making |
1118s | sure you're surrounding yourself with |
1119s | people who are also grinding just as |
1122s | hard as you and are you know performing |
1124s | at your level or above in the |
1126s | competitive realm whether it's you know |
1127s | teaching you new metas new tricks that |
1129s | kind of come out as the season develops |
1132s | and kind of share and grow together as |
1134s | well as obviously you know practicing |
1136s | and making sure you're practicing to the |
1138s | best of your ability for example like |
1139s | back in the days before we had you know |
1141s | creative and you could go box fighting |
1143s | Zone Wars everything like scram said |
1145s | he'd go to Tilted Towers right he'd form |
1146s | a bunch of materials and that's the way |
1148s | you'd practice so you go to Misty |
1149s | Meadows I believe it was form a bunch of |
1151s | wood do your 1v1 build fights you know |
1153s | always do something in the kinda other |
1155s | people that don't really want it all are |
1158s | able to do and then you know if you can |
1160s | do that consistently and stay at the top |
1162s | it's kind of how you do it |
1164s | yeah I mean do you think do you think |
1166s | it's possible as well scram you know you |
1168s | know can you go from casual player to to |
1170s | Pro in 2023 is it is it still possible I |
1173s | guess a lot of people think I don't know |
1174s | no I'm not I've not only recently found |
1176s | the game but I guess I guess to a degree |
1177s | it is if you kind of find you know if |
1180s | you find the way that you can play the |
1181s | game to kind of the best of your |
1182s | abilities and it kind of usurps the rest |
1184s | of the the players out there I guess you |
1185s | could you still could do that do you |
1186s | agree |
1187s | yeah I mean I myself never saw myself |
1190s | becoming like a pro player it's always a |
1192s | hobby and then all that just happened |
1194s | like without like the intent of it |
1196s | happening uh and I think we always sit |
1198s | in fortnite had like growing Talent |
1200s | people who wanted more than others and I |
1202s | think those people are going to succeed |
1203s | so if you like you have a dream to be a |
1205s | pro I don't think like there's anything |
1207s | that like I don't think there's much |
1209s | difference between a casual uh Pro |
1210s | Player like Pro players on some like |
1212s | inhuman people like people who are like |
1217s | playing fortnite you know so I think |
1220s | anyone can do it to be honest |
1222s | love to hear it love to hear you and you |
1224s | and you guys heard it and saw it you |
1226s | know that that you're hearing it from |
1227s | scram here in Takata it is absolutely |
1229s | doable here in absolutely possible and |
1231s | you know it's it's actually a great way |
1233s | for us to move into kind of the next |
1234s | topic here I want to talk about which is |
1235s | obviously uh the the yearly MVP I |
1238s | alluded to this at the beginning of the |
1239s | show here and kind of like the the best |
1240s | players over the course of you know of |
1242s | the last you know five years since kind |
1244s | of like the the the the origins of of |
1247s | fortnite competitive |
1248s | um I thought we'd run here to go through |
1249s | kind of like from 2018 kind of each year |
1251s | and kind of like say the player or |
1253s | players that kind of stand out for you |
1254s | both here |
1255s | um and going all the way back to 2018 |
1256s | we're going to do that first and |
1258s | foremost here now Takata what player or |
1261s | players you know what do you think in |
1263s | 2018 really separated themselves from |
1265s | the rest of the pack who really stood |
1266s | out from the crowd for you yeah I mean |
1269s | I'm gonna give the n a perspective as I |
1271s | was always with the na crowd in this |
1272s | we'll see what scram has with the EU |
1273s | perspective but you know there's a lot |
1275s | of big names bezel there was blind tifu |
1278s | cloxy there was a lot of big names even |
1281s | more gossip took home the summer |
1283s | Skirmish but for 2018 I'm giving it to |
1285s | tifu I mean champions of the Fall |
1287s | Skirmish tifu Club C but what I like so |
1289s | much about tifu is he was always ahead |
1291s | of the meta he was always kind of the |
1294s | first one to start doing these new |
1295s | strategies and texts that other players |
1297s | would later follow |
1299s | yeah I mean I had to come with a really |
1302s | different perspective like the EU |
1303s | perspective uh and for me although I do |
1306s | recognize teach you and think he's |
1308s | obviously one of the at least top two in |
1310s | that yeah |
1311s | um I think I have to go Metro uh me too |
1314s | at that time was basically a nobody and |
1316s | then he started playing Skirmish and |
1318s | actually won his second Skirmish uh and |
1320s | went on to win one more four scale |
1322s | mission to someone's Skirmish uh and |
1325s | also one like Polaris land uh and he |
1327s | just did some crazy stuff that I don't |
1328s | think anyone else for for that time like |
1330s | the shop waste strategy would like you |
1332s | you throw it on the roof and you like |
1333s | find someone's box I don't really think |
1335s | anyone at that time had I did that and |
1337s | then to do it in like a big tournament |
1338s | with big Stakes that was like insane to |
1341s | watch |
1341s | no one did it but tfu no I'm just |
1343s | kidding respect respect |
1348s | that's why I love this about this it's a |
1350s | great opportunity for all you guys who |
1352s | are listening to watching as well to get |
1354s | involved let us know online do you agree |
1355s | who would you agree with to Carter or |
1357s | scram you know is there someone |
1359s | different you think maybe in 2018's uh |
1361s | MVP |
1362s | um yeah 2019 let's move into 2019 the |
1364s | year of the World Cup such a massive |
1366s | year in the fortnite competitive |
1368s | calendar I'll start with Instagram uh |
1370s | which player do you think it's 2019's |
1371s | MVP |
1372s | I mean I love fall about this uh and |
1376s | obviously has some honorable mentions |
1377s | but I mean you have to say boot it's |
1379s | 2019 that's like yeah yeah that's the |
1381s | Europe bro uh I mean winning like the |
1383s | solo World Cup that's like the biggest |
1385s | achievement you can actually get like |
1387s | winning Joe okay that's like really |
1389s | impressive but like being the solo best |
1391s | player in the world that's just |
1393s | something else and I think |
1394s | even if he did nothing rest of the year |
1396s | he would still be that number one spot |
1398s | yeah I mean 100 I'm with you scram buga |
1401s | you know the Big D taking home the World |
1403s | Cup it's it's kind of like it's what you |
1406s | said it's you know when you think of |
1407s | 2019 competitive fortnite you think of |
1410s | Booga so he's got the MVP but I'm |
1412s | curious to see your your honorable |
1413s | mention scram who you got on that list |
1416s | I mean for me during that time I always |
1418s | expected that stompy and chinkin were |
1420s | gonna win the Dual World Cup because |
1421s | during the actual World Cup qualifying |
1423s | weeks that an average placement of 1.8 |
1426s | uh |
1427s | and after the World Cup they also went |
1429s | on to win |
1431s | um with aqua in season Ace of trios so |
1434s | it was a close run over the aqua but you |
1436s | had to go with Burger I remember that |
1438s | yeah Stampy was stomping the World Cup |
1441s | qualifiers literally Bizzle two doing it |
1443s | without a weapon I don't know if you |
1444s | remember that I think it was with the |
1446s | Ballers he like made it through finals |
1448s | with not shooting a single weapon |
1450s | throughout the qualifiers it was crazy |
1452s | outrageous outrageous 2019 you're in |
1455s | agreement as well is booger the one for |
1457s | you yeah booger |
1459s | has to be I mean I'm sure at home as |
1461s | well I'm sure you agree Booga was |
1464s | World Cup solos Champion I mean it was |
1466s | just a massive year for Burger uh 2020 |
1468s | let's move into 2020 here um is there |
1470s | any particular players I'll start Takata |
1472s | uh who was who was the the player of |
1475s | 2020 in your eyes the goat right this is |
1478s | more you know the online tournaments EU |
1481s | is coming up to the top and you know at |
1483s | the top of that list in 2020 I I I'm |
1486s | looking at tasting here Payson has |
1489s | dominated and has continued to dominate |
1492s | a lot of the the online tournaments and |
1494s | fortnite competitive |
1496s | yeah I mean I can only agree uh Tayson |
1498s | this year was insane he was basically a |
1501s | nobody like nobody knew him before 2020 |
1503s | he came in he won solo fncs he won three |
1507s | references with Mongrel Metro and also |
1509s | playing with like that capital of |
1510s | players so early in their career yeah I |
1512s | mean you have to be absolutely insane so |
1515s | yeah it's Hazen for me it's just he has |
1517s | to be the one |
1518s | yeah tasting and still today you know |
1521s | has become this this kind of Mega star |
1522s | and you know to think it's three years |
1525s | now and we talk about Tyson all the time |
1526s | like fncs has come around always on the |
1529s | on the tips of our tongue there is Tyson |
1531s | I mean 2021 as well doing another big |
1533s | year for the same play are we are we |
1535s | feeling that it could be another Tyson |
1537s | year to carter back to back back to back |
1540s | 2021 2020. those were tastes years I |
1544s | mean it still kind of tastes in zeros I |
1545s | want to see him you know get a pop-off |
1547s | in one of these in-person events but |
1549s | Tyson has been incredibly consistent |
1551s | since 2020. |
1553s | no one's doing it like him man |
1556s | but you I mean what I mean obviously you |
1558s | know you you guys identify you look |
1560s | always for the for the the snapshots of |
1563s | of Supremacy that these kind of uh our |
1566s | players bring to you know to each and |
1568s | every tournament here I mean scram |
1570s | you've lived it you breathe at the top |
1572s | top level what is it about tasting that |
1574s | you think has been so defining and so so |
1576s | different there's a Difference Maker uh |
1578s | when it comes to how he manages to to |
1580s | succeed in in fortnite comp |
1582s | it's hard to say because I feel like if |
1585s | anybody knew that they could probably |
1586s | replicate what he does but I think he's |
1588s | just so in the company fair enough fair |
1590s | enough yeah in like in like the high |
1592s | pressure situation did you see like he's |
1594s | like the most solid player he like he |
1596s | knows what to do and and that obviously |
1598s | is replicated over the years like him |
1600s | winning so many different CSS uh I I |
1604s | think it's hard to replicate what he |
1605s | does I think he just has like the the |
1607s | gut and that tells him what to do yeah |
1609s | the confidence right especially being |
1611s | able to do it in a solos tournament you |
1613s | need a lot of confidence you need a lot |
1614s | of mechanics you need a lot of game |
1616s | sense there's a lot of things that you |
1617s | need to be able to come out on top in |
1619s | solos and also just a lot of you know |
1621s | strong mentality and that tasting as |
1623s | he's been able to do it |
1625s | yeah I mean 2021 we're looking at what |
1627s | fncs All-Star solos he won one chapter |
1630s | two season eight grand Royale with Helen |
1632s | chapix won nine cash cups I mean 2020 I |
1635s | mean this guy's it's ridiculous a |
1637s | monster if you will um 2022 only last |
1640s | year here now |
1642s | um scram who's who's 2022's Superstar on |
1645s | your eyes |
1646s | in my eyes uh it's silly I think 2022 |
1650s | said it was like a different breed uh it |
1653s | went on earlier in the year to win the |
1655s | dream solo tourney |
1657s | um on a tiebreaker and also went on to |
1660s | obviously win f is this Invitational uh |
1663s | and I think it's hard to put anyone else |
1665s | and like the actual winner of everything |
1666s | on this list |
1670s | kind of like a reminder of 2019 you know |
1672s | we had buga 2022 we have seti you know |
1675s | like especially those final moments of |
1677s | the Invitational Kami seti going against |
1680s | venoquez it was it was intense it was I |
1684s | mean it was such a it was an |
1685s | unbelievable moment though I think |
1687s | anyone will ever forget in in in enjoys |
1689s | fortnite competitive I mean yeah we |
1691s | we'll talk about global Champions later |
1693s | on being there in person but the crowd |
1695s | and the theme that we got from from |
1696s | experiencing that live |
1699s | um it's because you think about the |
1700s | pressure result this is this is Game 12 |
1701s | obviously this happened as well there's |
1703s | kind of like this Cuisine Veno uh play |
1706s | they had to defend and survive and they |
1708s | did that and City I mean and a top top |
1710s | player and I think Takata seti continues |
1714s | to be destined for big things I don't |
1715s | think it's going to stop now no you I |
1717s | mean scram even said it right the we |
1719s | have the global Championship coming up |
1721s | and uh if I'm not mistaken that's that's |
1722s | like your main picks Graham Cami Saidi |
1724s | taking it home they've held their |
1727s | consistency throughout these these last |
1729s | seasons and they can they can make it |
1730s | happen |
1731s | okay yeah you got you you have to |
1734s | mention Quita though I'm sorry if I |
1735s | stepping in but 2022 queasy like to have |
1739s | the gods to make that decision last game |
1741s | uh and also winning fncs with him and |
1745s | then saying I don't need you no more |
1747s | qualifying with Veno for invitation as |
1749s | well and then doing that like you have |
1751s | to like give it to him he's not horrible |
1753s | mention this year or you have to go with |
1754s | study still yeah yeah it's such a |
1757s | sliding doors movement if had it gone |
1758s | the other way I mean massive |
1761s | um but it's still an amazing moment um |
1762s | 2023 though here we are uh this year who |
1765s | is who's been the MVP |
1767s | um for you Takata you can go first here |
1769s | who's who's 2023's uh begin uh you think |
1772s | yeah scram in 2022 you know gave the |
1775s | honorable mention to queasy and now here |
1777s | in 2023 with the majors we've seen on EU |
1780s | queasy Veno have been dominating except |
1782s | for that you know last major ran into a |
1784s | little hassle but I think that was more |
1786s | of a fluke than anything and they'll be |
1788s | able to get right back up for globals so |
1791s | I I think I'm gonna give it to Veno this |
1793s | year |
1795s | okay yeah I mean for me it's hard to |
1798s | obviously say who's like the best player |
1800s | this year |
1802s | um because we haven't had globals yet |
1803s | but I had to go with Cami I mean camera |
1806s | this year obviously winning Gamers eight |
1810s | um which is like the biggest land this |
1811s | year and also getting like Fifth and |
1815s | fourth in Grands |
1817s | um and then coming up to land I'll see |
1818s | them as like the definite winners or |
1820s | like at least top three so I think I |
1822s | have to go look at me respect respect |
1824s | yeah Cami Cami seems strategy wise Cami |
1828s | always seems to to put pull out the the |
1830s | best play in the in any given situation |
1832s | and it's you know definitely definitely |
1834s | up there then O2 I mean great choices |
1836s | again we're asking a lot at home do you |
1838s | agree let us know get involved comment |
1840s | away and let us know online is it Veno |
1842s | is it Cami is it somebody else we'd love |
1844s | to hear from you I get you guys involved |
1846s | and engage with the show as possible |
1847s | we'd love to see it uh but that you know |
1849s | yearly MVPs there's there's a lot of |
1850s | players that could have been there but I |
1851s | think we've mentioned some of the very |
1853s | best in them I'm looking forward to |
1854s | seeing exactly who's gonna come out on |
1855s | top of global championships we'll get to |
1856s | very shortly but before we do that |
1859s | just a bit of the show that I'm just |

1879s | have to we don't have to spend a lot of |
1880s | time here let's just qualify let's just |
1882s | let's just clarify it Takata is never |
1884s | 30. |
1889s | it could happen today um okay so what |
1891s | happens is if you're brand new to the |
1893s | show I haven't heard or seen this before |

1910s | we go into a tiebreaker question where |
1912s | it's all about uh the closest person to |
1914s | the answer wins okay it's really simple |
1917s | you might just play the tie maker for |
1919s | fun season |
1922s | this week is a little bit different |

2003s | I think I heard scram say previously |
2006s | that his favorite moment was clutching |
2008s | up fourth place in the world cup Duos so |
2010s | I'm gonna say qualified the World Cup |
2012s | final answer |
2013s | Final Answer qualifying for the World |
2015s | Cup and you would be |
2018s | correct that was scribes I mean scrap |
2021s | scram is that scram just just to clarify |
2023s | that was your favorite moment that was |
2024s | my favorite moment yeah |
2034s | okay okay what was it one zero Takata |
2037s | great flying start from you my friend |
2038s | okay I'll play with that here we go |
2040s | question one for you scram what is |
2042s | takata's favorite moment in his fortnite |
2045s | career okay Mr Carter's favorite is it a |
2048s | okay being an analyst at the 2022 fncs |
2051s | Invitational is it B making finals at |
2053s | Pax West 2018 summer Skirmish or C |
2056s | finishing the number one ranked Spanish |
2059s | player of |
2061s | 2019. oh that's actually hard okay |
2066s | that's a tough one look look yours was a |
2068s | little little I'm gonna give you a |
2070s | little hint it's it's kind of a trick |
2071s | question that's that's my hint kind of a |
2074s | true question that gives me that this |
2075s | makes me even more confused now |
2077s | okay another trick question so I feel |
2080s | like mine was you know the World Cup was |
2082s | pretty it was pretty pretty obvious not |
2083s | gonna lie so I'm gonna give you that I'm |
2085s | gonna give you that maybe you need a |
2087s | views now so being an analyst at the |
2089s | 2022 fncs Invitational making finals at |
2091s | Pax West 2018 summer Skirmish or |
2093s | finishing the number one ranked Spanish |
2094s | play of 2019 what's your Vibes abrc I |
2097s | mean the |
2099s | I think you know you went with something |
2102s | I said earlier I'm gonna go with him |
2104s | placing in the number B number b letter |
2108s | b |
2109s | placing in the attack semifinals |
2112s | um I thought that gave him the Boost you |
2113s | know for his career uh and it it has to |
2116s | be a right okay I like the logic the |
2119s | logic's on point here okay making finals |
2121s | at Pax West 2018 summer Skirmish and the |
2123s | correct answer was |
2125s | it was B it was exactly that yes let's |
2128s | go you got it you got it to put some |
2131s | context you know in terms of |
2132s | achievements obviously being an analyst |
2134s | at the Invitational being the number one |
2136s | ranked Spanish player in 2019 they're up |
2138s | there but none of that would have |
2140s | happened if I didn't make finals at the |
2142s | summer Skirmish that's what sparked kind |
2144s | of my fortnite career so it is my |
2145s | favorite moment as it commenced |
2147s | everything so you got the logic down you |
2149s | got it you're smart that was good that |
2151s | was good that's a tricky question that |
2153s | might be even more confused man |
2157s | if you're listening to this and couldn't |
2159s | see this the the puff the sigh of relief |
2161s | the scram let out yeah |
2165s | a massive Guff of air just oh I loved it |
2169s | okay okay we've got our next question |
2171s | for you this is one one right now it's |
2172s | tied okay question two for Takata what |
2175s | is scram's worst moment in his fortnite |
2178s | career what is scram's worst moment okay |
2181s | yeah of course yeah hey it's not |
2185s | qualifying the fncs Heats in Chapter |
2187s | Four Season Two is it B finishing 38th |
2190s | in the fncs Invitational last year or is |
2193s | it c not qualifying for the global |
2195s | Champs a b or c not qualify for fnts |
2198s | Heats in chapter 4 season 2 finishing |
2200s | 38th in fncs Invitational last year or |
2202s | not qualifying for Global Champs |
2205s | this is a tricky one there's a tricky |
2207s | one so yeah it's actually a trick |
2208s | question by the way oh yeah yeah |
2211s | that's just a quick question so being |
2214s | the top tier competitive player you are |
2216s | with the history you know of of |
2219s | succeeding so much in fortnite |
2221s | competitive not making Heats might have |
2223s | been kind of uh a tricky moment but at |
2227s | the same time I don't think that's your |
2228s | worst moment tricky |
2230s | um very tricky almost like if it was a |
2233s | trick question |
2234s | Global Champs I feel like is a big one |
2237s | but at the same time also 36 of the |
2241s | Invitational |
2242s | I know you would have won |
2244s | I don't know I'm gonna this this tricky |
2247s | it's either if it was like the trick |
2249s | question of mine it would be the Heats |
2251s | one that would be the trick question |
2252s | part so I'd go with the Heats but I feel |
2255s | like |
2256s | I feel like um I'm gonna go with global |
2258s | Champs final answer |
2260s | okay so you're going to answer c not |
2262s | qualifying for Global Champs |
2264s | you would be |
2267s | correct that is exactly right to Carter |
2270s | okay I got scared |
2272s | of the Champs why why is I'm not happy |
2276s | I'm not happy I'm tired it's the quiz |
2279s | it's the quiz it's the quiz |
2285s | why why are you raining I mean I get I |
2288s | get I get it and um you know but I mean |
2291s | that that was the answer you gave is |
2292s | correct answer C right it's two one to |
2294s | Takata okay I was actually gonna go with |
2296s | Invitational one because I got as a bag |
2298s | of player with chimp from n a uh his Joe |
2301s | couldn't play and we're doing so bad and |
2303s | I felt so bad man like it was like nah |
2306s | it was so nice and like we just did so |
2308s | terrible |
2310s | [Laughter] |
2311s | way to go though he's a goat okay okay |
2314s | uh question two for scram here we go |
2317s | what is takata's worst moment in his |
2320s | fortnite career what is my worst moment |
2322s | I don't even know |
2324s | well let's find out uh we have a coming |
2327s | Sixth and just missing out on qualifying |
2330s | for the World Cup is it B getting first |
2332s | in the World Cup qualifier semis but |
2334s | 12th in the finals or is it c not |
2337s | qualifying for the 2018 twitchcon fall |
2339s | Skirmish finals so coming sixth just |
2342s | missing out on qualifying for World Cup |
2343s | getting first in the World Cup qualifier |
2345s | semis the 12th and finals or not |
2347s | qualifying for the 2018 twitchcon fall |
2349s | Skirmish finals what do you think abortc |
2351s | I mean |
2353s | the thing we're getting first and then |
2355s | again 12 the day after it's like when |
2357s | you go 12 you work slows or you want as |
2359s | close as six you know six feet right |
2362s | next to it I'm not sure Duos and both |
2365s | were solos though |
2366s | technically it's the same |
2369s | old friend |
2371s | games I'm giving you context |
2376s | but then again sixth place is closer to |
2379s | First and Twelfth is so that's my logic |
2382s | and I'm gonna go with |
2384s | safe place |
2386s | oh no yeah I'm gonna go you know what |
2388s | I'm gonna stick to it |
2390s | I'm gonna say a sixth place |
2391s | so Final Answer coming sick then just |
2393s | missing out on qualifying for World Cup |
2396s | okay you know what I'm gonna switch my |
2398s | answer okay |
2401s | and then 12th and finals okay so that's |
2405s | luck I I want this concrete now so we'll |
2408s | see |
2410s | okay okay first in World Cup qualify but |
2413s | semi's but 12 in the finals answer B |
2416s | yeah oh yeah yeah |
2419s | well stop laughing man I am up delighted |
2423s | to say |
2425s | that is correct it was awesome |
2429s | that was good that was good again for |
2433s | those who can't can't see I'm just |
2434s | watching Squarespace and you can see the |
2436s | terror the terror the audio the prospect |
2439s | of getting it incorrect I'm just loving |
2441s | this right now uh two two this is uh |
2443s | it's close the tiebreaker is coming this |
2447s | is really good this is really good okay |
2449s | uh we have ourselves our last two |
2450s | multiple choice questions let me move |
2451s | into a tie breaker if we need to |
2455s | 100 players at fncs Invitational have |
2460s | also made it into the global |
2461s | Championship so how many of the 100 |
2463s | players at fncs Invitational have also |
2467s | made it to the global championships is |
2469s | it 42 52 or 62 |
2473s | how many players of the Invitational |
2475s | also made globals 42-52-62 that is great |
2479s | yeah |
2482s | question good question |
2486s | um |
2488s | 42 52 62 what would you do scram |
2492s | I'm not telling you |
2493s | nothing I'm telling you I'm thinking I'm |
2496s | not telling you so I feel like it's a |
2499s | higher amount rather than lower amount |
2501s | but at the same time when I'm thinking |
2503s | of duplicate names there's also some |
2505s | that aren't coming back that did |
2509s | 42 5262 I guess I just got it I'm not |
2513s | I'm not counting this one down to be |
2515s | honest uh |
2518s | 62 final answer |
2520s | 62 Final Answer locking it in locking it |
2523s | in scram what would you have said just |
2525s | accuracy |
2526s | 52 I'll say 52 yeah |
2530s | is too much man I think I don't like |
2532s | picking the middle one |
2535s | okay okay well well |
2538s | the answer is |
2540s | I'm Keen to it you guys at home got two |
2542s | because the answer is actually 52 it is |
2545s | the middle answer |
2546s | [Music] |
2549s | just for the record you had you asked me |
2559s | come on |
2564s | man |
2565s | okay okay |
2567s | so uh so it's currently stays it stays |
2570s | at 2-2 scram let's see if you can clutch |
2572s | this one up and get three out of three |
2573s | here okay for scrap your final question |
2576s | yeah give him a hard one oh I see this |
2578s | how many fncs titles have been won by |
2582s | the players who will be at the global |
2584s | championships so how many fncs titles |
2587s | have been won by the players who are |
2589s | going to be our Global championships is |
2591s | it 83 93 or 103. |
2598s | hmm good question again such a good |
2600s | question |
2601s | well when you look like the smaller |
2603s | regions there's a lot of like multiple |
2606s | time winner exactly |
2608s | some of those players they just told me |
2610s | that region you know they just win every |
2612s | year |
2612s | and they're like the ogs |
2615s | um |
2617s | oh that's a hard one |
2619s | he's doing it that's awesome he's doing |
2622s | he's calculating it right now he's like |
2624s | okay let's see we got epic whale with |
2626s | like this is it gonna be the middle one |
2629s | twice I don't think so but it could be |
2633s | I want to go with |
2634s | wait what was the last one what was that |
2637s | 83 93 103. you know what |
2642s | I'm I'm not okay I'm gonna go 103. |
2645s | oh you see you're going with 103. I'm |
2648s | gonna say 83. |
2649s | I'm going I'm looking at Instagram |
2652s | yeah |
2654s | the correct answer is |
2657s | 103. he's already gone |
2660s | [Music] |
2662s | no |
2666s | no 103 fmcs titles won my players at |
2669s | Global championships well I'm living up |
2671s | to my quiz my quiz history I just can't |
2673s | wait three two I mean it was darn close |
2676s | right but as we always I mean we've done |
2678s | it every week now should we just do the |
2679s | tiebreak question anyway let's do it |
2681s | let's do it I'm tying it up I'm tying it |
2683s | up right now |
2686s | this is real this is game time yeah |
2689s | the thing is if sakata wins this he'll |
2692s | tell everybody ours it was a draw yeah |
2695s | that's the problem I think we just skip |
2697s | this one uh it was at the whole of Spain |
2699s | it was a draw guys it was a draw okay |
2701s | okay right this is it this time |
2702s | recognition is this okay how many fncs |
2705s | finals appearances do the players are |
2708s | Global championships have how many fncs |
2711s | finals appearances to the players at |
2714s | Global championships have now I'm going |
2717s | to ask you first to Carter and then I'll |
2719s | let scram choose afterwards but it could |
2721s | be yeah there's no multiple choice here |
2723s | otherwise otherwise you could just go |
2725s | higher or lower scram said you could |
2727s | just go hire a level or whatever I say |
2729s | thanks again |
2732s | for them fair enough fair enough how |
2735s | many |
2736s | have |
2742s | the Champions there was a hundred and |
2745s | two or 108 you said |
2748s | 103. |
2749s | yeah fncs titles one family appearances |
2753s | and there's people that got like 17 |
2756s | times the appearances they have titles |
2758s | you know |
2759s | but if I were to average it out to like |
2761s | a 10 |
2763s | 000 so that would be a thousand |
2765s | 108 that'd be a thousand and eight |
2768s | but then |
2769s | yeah throughout all the regions I guess |
2771s | that would make sense so then it would |
2772s | be |
2775s | I can see the people in his head just |
2777s | chiseling up people going through all |
2781s | the time right the most finalist |
2782s | appearances there's like this within the |
2784s | people how many people are like in the |
2786s | middle of that you know like there's |
2787s | some people that have like 17 finals |
2789s | appearances but like there's not a lot |
2791s | of them yeah that's what I mean some |
2793s | people have two but then like what's the |
2795s | range of the people between like five |
2797s | and ten you know like um I'm gonna press |
2800s | you for I'm gonna go with 1 |
2802s | 000 and |
2803s | 78. |
2805s | 1078. |
2807s | yep so one zero seven eight okay so |
2810s | you're going home |
2813s | 1077 or 1079. yeah those are your two |
2817s | options basically yeah if you want to |
2819s | play it like that that's how yeah |
2822s | those are my two options I'm gonna think |
2825s | though that's like an average of 10 fmcs |
2829s | grand finals per player you can think |
2831s | but bearing in mind those people |
2832s | listening right now are just thinking |
2833s | what's what's happening where's |
2834s | everybody gone just if you I'll give |
2836s | I'll give you 10 seconds 10 seconds I |
2839s | should have went a bit lower |
2840s | like |
2860s | yeah yeah okay |
2863s | anyone's looking goes oh oh yeah it was |
2866s | her okay so one so 1063 one zero six |
2869s | three yeah that's gonna be like 800 |
2871s | something thinking about it more all |
2873s | right what is it Adam the correct answer |
2875s | is |
2876s | one thousand |
2880s | 405 to Carter's brought it right |
2885s | 1405 finals appearances uh of the |
2888s | players are going to Global |
2889s | championships that's crazy that's crazy |
2892s | how we tied in the quiz that's insane |
2894s | that's sense |
2898s | no winner on the talk show |
2902s | but uh yeah you guys uh hopefully you |
2904s | guys enjoyed that at home as well and |
2905s | how did you do let us know uh online |
2907s | that was uh that was great that was |
2909s | great what up boys I mean that get you a |
2911s | three a three two that was that was |
2913s | pretty good that was really good you |
2915s | look devastated absolutely devastated |
2918s | right one thing that will definitely |
2919s | cheer you up though is the prospect of |
2921s | global Champs coming our way it's right |
2924s | around the corner Global championships |
2925s | is not too far away now uh we're getting |
2928s | so close to this uh October is on the |
2930s | horizon and we are you know it's it's |
2933s | almost there |
2934s | um if you are interested by the way |
2936s | anyone listening watching right now you |
2938s | want to be there in person in Copenhagen |
2940s | Denmark you absolutely can uh fn.gg |
2943s | forward slash tickets that is the place |
2945s | to go to find out exactly how you can be |
2947s | there in person in Denmark |
2950s | um it's going to be a an absolute show |
2952s | to remember it's going to be once in a |
2954s | lifetime opportunity there |
2956s | um this is gonna be interesting Global |
2957s | championships here I'm gonna ask you |
2959s | both do teams I mean we've talked about |
2960s | some of the teams some of the stats here |
2962s | coming through |
2963s | finals appearances players that have won |
2965s | um and such as well talks about the |
2967s | teams that you think are going to do |
2968s | well or are going to be worth watching |
2970s | scram who who it jumps straight out are |
2972s | you are definitely teams that we need to |
2974s | be aware of going into Global |
2975s | championships all right so I'm gonna go |
2977s | with three teams for now uh and I'm |
2979s | gonna go with chemistry |
2982s | Veno and Google threats |
2986s | uh but for me I feel like Kami city is |
2989s | definitely like |
2990s | they're looking for the top one I mean |
2993s | I'm I'm watching them play I mean I'm |
2995s | watching them sweating their butts off |
2996s | in the fortnite evil cups like I think I |
3000s | have a good shot at like they just take |
3002s | everything so serious man I think they |
3003s | have a perfect time for this and I think |
3005s | they're gonna do really well |
3007s | okay interesting yeah I love that too I |
3010s | I think after you know last year's |
3011s | performance and the consistency a long |
3014s | time I mean dare I say if they if they |
3016s | do win haven't done an Invitational last |
3017s | year and if Global championships happens |
3019s | dare I say the greatest the greatest Duo |
3021s | especially in the region of all time |
3024s | yeah you could say that okay yeah just |
3027s | just |
3028s | putting it just just stop it |
3032s | um I mean I think I mean three great |
3034s | great uh Duos there as well to Carter |
3036s | that scram's mentioned there absolutely |
3038s | all capable but how about you what where |
3040s | who are you leaning towards look I got |
3042s | some Duos but before that based on what |
3045s | I'm gonna do is I'm gonna I want to ask |
3046s | scrum a question you know being having |
3048s | the global championship at the Royal |
3050s | arena in Copenhagen in Denmark and you |
3054s | know the the Danish curse existing |
3055s | almost 200 fncs finals appearances from |
3058s | Danish competitors but no trophy yet no |
3061s | Crown no pickaxe no Thomas |
3064s | they're contested you're not gonna pick |
3067s | any of the Danish Thrills Graham come on |
3068s | I mean I want to go with Thomas and |
3070s | malibuca because obviously they have |
3073s | been so dominant in the EU |
3075s | um getting so close to like first place |
3078s | earlier this year in the in the first |
3080s | season where they I believe they got |
3082s | second by like one point |
3084s | and I mean just being like that that |
3087s | like two colorable players they are if |
3089s | they weren't contested they would |
3090s | definitely be like top three for me but |
3092s | seeing as they're contested at the |
3094s | racetrack I cannot imagine it's just |
3096s | looking like a hard win for them I mean |
3098s | yeah I know Thomas always clutches when |
3101s | it really matters |
3102s | but at this level competition 12 games I |
3105s | don't know man oh wait she's game 10 |
3107s | games 10 games |
3110s | it'll be it'll be difficult but I mean I |
3112s | I understand being contested is going to |
3114s | be difficult it's uh you never know |
3115s | though maybe drop spots will change up a |
3117s | bit closer we do have the upper lower |
3119s | bracket you know format there's gonna be |
3121s | more Duos |
3122s | coming in through the through day one of |
3124s | the global Championship so we'll see |
3126s | what happens but to add the other two |
3127s | names you know queasy Veno just like |
3129s | scram said I think that's a big Duo that |
3132s | can make it happen and put a bit of a |
3134s | wild card as well competing again from |
3137s | the Invitational to the global Champs we |
3139s | had King and now King with phaser at |
3142s | globals I want to see a Brazilian Duo |
3144s | come out on top I would love to see them |
3146s | you know see see what they are see what |
3148s | they're capable of but yeah definitely |
3151s | quizzy vano Thomas maley |
3153s | King phaser I'd like to see one of those |
3155s | Duos do it yeah I mean I mean I think I |
3158s | think that's what we we love so much |
3159s | about fncs Invitational last year was |
3161s | the fact that we had all the regions |
3163s | combining coming together to you know to |
3165s | go head-to-head there was just such an |
3168s | atmosphere it was and you know and you |
3170s | have to prove that you are the best |
3171s | internationally you know to to to take |
3173s | home that I mean that incredible prize |
3175s | pool as well that's you know that we've |
3177s | seen now as well in scram it's just it |
3179s | it is absolutely life-changing money |
3181s | isn't it |
3182s | it's absolutely crazy I mean you know |
3184s | this age and competing for like this |
3186s | amount of money it's just I mean I don't |
3188s | see many other games doing this |
3190s | um and I'm obviously hoping as well for |
3192s | some of the wild cards like to color |
3193s | mentioned like Ian fazer to to pull |
3196s | through and I'm hoping by the smaller |
3197s | regions to actually show that they're |
3199s | good but it is hard to compete when you |
3201s | have like these big regions competing |
3202s | against like all the good players like |
3204s | you have camisay competing against Chris |
3206s | Evano and so much Mali like you're just |
3209s | bound to make like an absolute monster |
3210s | for Joe in these bigger regions where |
3213s | the small regions don't have the same |
3215s | like ability to practice but I mean hey |
3217s | they still like come through at Big |
3218s | tournaments |
3219s | um so yeah we'll see |
3221s | we'll see what happens also you know you |
3223s | spoke on the prize a little bit it's a |
3224s | million dollars for the first place Duo |
3227s | at globals so they are going to be |
3229s | taking home a good chunk of change |
3233s | a million dollars |
3237s | that's Mass that's massive I I grab us a |
3240s | box a a man city watch man united |
3242s | everyone's invited |
3244s | um it would be incredible to see that I |
3247s | mean um you know I want to talk about |
3249s | preparation as well for players and |
3250s | exactly you know what they're doing |
3251s | ahead of time obviously um you both |
3253s | gonna know so many of them so so closely |
3255s | so well |
3256s | um in your opinion you know scram first |
3258s | like what what how is preparation |
3260s | um what are they doing to prepare for |
3262s | this like how do you prepare for |
3264s | something like Global championships |
3266s | I mean playing a big major event uh |
3269s | another degree it's like always can be |
3271s | very different from any sort of practice |
3273s | and anything you like ever been put |
3275s | through uh as a player |
3277s | um like you have to have like the |
3279s | perfect strategy you have to have the |
3280s | best like awareness and best game sense |
3282s | uh and you have to put so much work in |
3284s | um and I know like for a fight even |
3287s | though I'd only talk to them I know Cami |
3288s | said he will have this I'll question |
3290s | then I'll probably will have this as |
3291s | well |
3292s | um and P like Thomas and malibucca I |
3294s | know they're putting in a lot of time |
3296s | recently so uh those two players they |
3299s | could cook up a good strategy |
3301s | um but yeah I mean everyone's just like |
3303s | running |
3304s | so hard right now so um yeah we'll see |
3307s | what happens |
3309s | interesting a lot of options a lot of |
3311s | opportunities right if I'm putting some |
3313s | some names down some strats down I mean |
3315s | I think one of the most important things |
3317s | is kind of learning the map of the |
3319s | global Championship obviously there is |
3321s | 75 Duos so we have that upper lower |
3323s | bracket where 25 of them that we don't |
3326s | really you know know yet will be in the |
3329s | the finals of the global Championship so |
3330s | the drop spots will change up a little |
3332s | bit but being able to know who's in your |
3334s | surrounding area of where you're |
3336s | dropping and you know based on that kind |
3338s | of where it's going to be better to |
3339s | rotate or get your storm surge or kind |
3342s | of depending what strategies you have |
3344s | based on on your surroundings is very |
3347s | important and studying that beforehand |
3348s | is is crucial but also you know staying |
3350s | up to date on the meta as the the season |
3352s | evolves and the game kind of continues |
3354s | to to make those changes always being on |
3357s | top of of the strategies and what you |
3359s | can do to kind of put yourself a level |
3361s | ahead of your opponents |
3366s | of different players like what they do |
3369s | because it's still 100 different players |
3371s | yeah 100 little Minds doing like 100 |
3373s | different things yeah so I feel like as |
3376s | a player you gotta understand like the |
3377s | patterns of the people lying around you |
3378s | as you said like you gotta understand |
3380s | what people are close to you and kind of |
3382s | what they do what Their strategy is and |
3384s | then kind of make your strategy like |
3386s | work around that so one big mind game |
3388s | really it's difficult it's tough it's |
3391s | tough it is tough day so I'm sure |
3393s | players as well probably you have |
3394s | contingency plans in case things aren't |
3396s | going brilliantly at the start just just |
3398s | to give themselves kind of like a bit of |
3400s | a bit of a wind in their sales going |
3401s | into the the final phase of the |
3403s | competition here so uh it's all going to |
3405s | be fantastic to watch unfold it is so |
3407s | close now we've talked about this such a |
3408s | long time and we are almost there if you |
3410s | want to be there at Global championships |

3421s | it it's gonna be absolutely spectacular |
3423s | to mark my words right uh before we can |
3426s | wrap things up let's talk about other |
3427s | amazing things happening in fortnite |
3429s | competitive right now other uh |
3430s | tournaments that have been going on uh |

3451s | likes of uh the um the Collegiate side |
3453s | of things as well here which kind of |
3454s | thing we is ever growing here I mean to |
3457s | Carter uh the fact that we have um yeah |

3462s | teams are battling at the series |
3463s | especially creating maps in campus |
3465s | corner I mean it's a really exciting but |
3467s | you know you seem to kind of keep an eye |
3469s | on keep tabs on because players are |
3470s | emerging and it's it's exciting to see |
3473s | yeah it's a great way to get experience |
3474s | as well I believe there's three teams |
3476s | right now that are 4-0 in the CCA Series |
3479s | so you know love to see these players |
3481s | competing adapting and also you know |
3483s | showcase using some of the different |
3484s | creative maps for practice that you can |
3486s | use |

3492s | with like all the Collegiate cups so I'm |
3494s | like not really that in like uh into the |
3496s | scene but it's really cool that they're |
3498s | making these creative maps and like kind |

3555s | tic-tac-toe one or the rocket Wars one |
3556s | which was played in cypher's Gauntlet |
