| 54s | sh I still made it way too far Liv out |
| 57s | the car I made it out the go |
| 61s | go the Miss we been the start with who |
| 68s | [Music] |
| 75s | [Music] |
| 89s | you |
| 96s | [Music] |
| 106s | call |
| 109s | [Music] |
| 113s | like yeah how see above it all I B |
| 118s | through the so why never fall |
| 149s | up team |
| 160s | [Music] |
| 179s | a |
| 182s | [Music] |
| 197s | he's very confident as a player he's so |
| 199s | good at eliminating other players |
| 200s | definitely kind a way smarter which |
| 202s | keeps him ahead of the game his |
| 204s | confidence is what makes him so good my |
| 206s | name is Leon Kat Kim and I'm from New |
| 208s | York City |
| 211s | I would say that I'm not really like shy |
| 213s | or anything I'm kind of easy to talk to |
| 215s | if you get to know me well I'm just a |
| 217s | chill person I think I used to be a |
| 219s | Fragger but I turned my entire play |
| 222s | style around into an igl because I |
| 224s | realized that all these Pros that I was |
| 226s | playing with I was smarter than all of |
| 228s | them and I thought that I could do |
| 230s | better as an igl the way I see it as |
| 232s | this game is 25% aim and mechanics and |
| 235s | 75% IQ and brain I'm doing it all I'm IG |
| 238s | Ling damage that's just like my play |
| 240s | style I do it |
| 243s | all and these players still don't |
| 245s | understand it they're still only |
| 246s | thinking about oh we need to start |
| 248s | grinding our aim like I just couldn't |
| 249s | hit my shots right here that's the least |
| 252s | of my worries |
| 255s | actually I'm thinking I need to survive |
| 257s | surge today which is positioning which |
| 259s | is rotations that's not anything with |
| 261s | aiming mechanics is all IQ right when |
| 263s | you're at this high level everybody |
| 265s | already knows how to build how are you |
| 266s | supposed to use it if you're in the |
| 267s | worst position on the map it is Canada |
| 270s | and a their game plan and strategies |
| 273s | throughout this competition have been |
| 275s | flawlessly executed I don't think |
| 277s | there's any other game just like |
| 278s | fortnite cuz every single season is |
| 280s | different anything that happened it's |
| 282s | not the same game that we used to play |
| 284s | the spot that I landed in fncs major one |
| 286s | which is faulty Sprints is not there |
| 287s | anymore there's a whole new side of that |
| 289s | map and it's hard because I'm splitting |
| 292s | that POI with two other Duos and all the |
| 295s | rotations are different I think I had |
| 296s | perfect rotations last fncs but now I'm |
| 300s | going to have to relearn everything it's |
| 302s | going to be a lot harder and I need to |
| 304s | be on my aame you saw Canada hitting |
| 307s | crazy shots as he does but this will |
| 309s | definitely be the time to do it being |
| 311s | positive is definitely one of the best |
| 313s | attributes you want to be playing with a |
| 314s | teammate that has high Vibes when you're |
| 316s | playing it's just it's just so much more |
| 318s | smoother when you're having a good |
| 319s | mentality you're like yo we got this we |
| 321s | got this next game we're going to win |
| 322s | and your teamm yeah we got this playing |
| 324s | like that has a higher chance of winning |
| 326s | the game if you're a good team you |
| 328s | should be qualifying that's like the |
| 329s | bare in my eyes right I 100% want to |
| 333s | qualify to Copenhagen but I also want to |
| 335s | win this is history in theing can you |
| 338s | imagine the story line Canada yet to win |
| 340s | an fncs inside of every single one but |
| 343s | then he might win this last one |
| 346s | qualifying for all 15 it is nice because |
| 349s | I'm the only one I'm the only player on |
| 350s | the region that's done it but it's not |
| 353s | nice to qualify for all these but |
| 354s | haven't won one I just want to be known |
| 357s | as that one guy that's qualified for |
| 359s | every single Grand finals and won |
| 361s | multiple of them so hopefully this one I |
| 363s | pull through win and secure my |
| 366s | [Music] |

| 681s | yo what's going on fortnite fam welcome |
| 683s | to the 2024 fncs we just got done |
| 686s | wrapping up the global championships and |
| 688s | we thought for 24 why don't we just run |
| 690s | it back with a few twists along the way |
| 693s | my name is Zeke and I'll be hanging out |
| 695s | with you for na but we also have an |
| 697s | incredible cast of analysts who help |
| 699s | break all of what we're seeing here the |
| 702s | beta the weapons the strategy all of it |
| 704s | and more we've got Vivid we've got Kelly |
| 706s | friends welcome to the show thank you |
| 708s | Zeke guys I'm so excited to be back |
| 710s | what's up fortnite fam and listen zek I |
| 712s | got to mention you know you're talking |
| 713s | about a couple twists to this fncs I |
| 716s | think there's a lot right we got a whole |
| 717s | new chapter whole new season whole new |
| 720s | meta a bunch of new Duos Kelly I cannot |
| 722s | wait to see what the players have in |
| 723s | store for us I mean we've already just |
| 726s | barely started major 1 and we've seen |
| 729s | some unpredictable things so far like EU |
| 732s | starting off the competition with a |
| 734s | million players signing up it blew my |
| 737s | mind away and then of course EU just |
| 739s | wrapped up their round four for the |
| 741s | first qualifier and it was absolutely |
| 744s | mad I love the changes that we're seeing |
| 746s | with this major and I can't wait to see |
| 748s | how na plays it out to |
| 750s | that's right and so in case you didn't |
| 751s | know basically we have 250 Duos that are |
| 753s | all going to be playing at the same time |
| 755s | we've got five lobbies kind of all going |
| 757s | so we'll be bouncing between game to |
| 759s | game probably right around the halfway |
| 760s | point then on and then we'll come back |
| 762s | we'll talk about what we saw check in on |
| 764s | how all of these lobbies are doing and |
| 766s | will keep the ball rolling for the first |
| 768s | two weeks we're playing for Series |
| 769s | points top 250 after that we'll move on |
| 771s | so yeah this is going to be absolutely |
| 774s | insane why don't we just talk about the |
| 776s | Duos and I mean you I think if you guys |
| 778s | watch Global champ championships you |
| 779s | know there's one Duo that has earned |
| 782s | themselves the most prestigious title |
| 784s | it's Meo it's Cooper Global Champions |
| 787s | now obviously they were Peak there at |
| 790s | globals are we looking for them to bring |
| 792s | the same exact Peak Performance they had |
| 795s | I mean you know it's an international |
| 797s | title that they have under their belts |
| 799s | now and I'm going to go ahead and say |
| 800s | that you know they kind of have to |
| 801s | defend their title coming into major one |
| 803s | but really they're not even on like the |
| 805s | same wavelength when it comes to oh if |
| 807s | they win major one it's it's nowhere |
| 808s | even close to winning globals but I got |
| 810s | to say you know shout out to Cooper and |
| 812s | Meo na on top I haven't gotten an |
| 814s | opportunity to go ahead and mention it |
| 816s | yet so happy that they won and yeah I'm |
| 818s | excited that they are one you know |
| 819s | sticking together for what will be major |
| 822s | one we'll see how long they stick |
| 823s | together this year if they plan on |
| 824s | running it back at the International |
| 826s | Event towards the end of the year I'm |
| 828s | just excited to see them pop off |
| 830s | again and I mean they did that so well |
| 833s | in global championships however I do |
| 835s | want to speak to their play style in |
| 837s | these kind of nonset law lobbies where |
| 839s | they are going to be going up against |
| 841s | 250 Duos instead of just the 50 Duos |
| 843s | which is what we saw in the global |
| 845s | championships or typically what we saw |
| 847s | in the final round for most Majors as |
| 849s | far as looking at previous Duo cash cups |
| 852s | as well as in round three they got 45th |
| 854s | Place so these non-set lobbies might not |
| 857s | be the best situation for them however |
| 859s | their drop spot near that marold yacht |
| 861s | seems to be doing well they're going to |
| 862s | be really close to one of the forecast |
| 864s | Towers which obviously is going to be |
| 865s | very beneficial for them I like it I |
| 868s | like it okay so let's talk about another |
| 869s | du that's kind of been staying together |
| 871s | it's Acorn and cold veterans in the |
| 873s | scene uh and you know Vivid we're seeing |
| 875s | a lot of swap UPS uh amongst these duels |
| 878s | but for acorn and Cole they said no no |
| 879s | no we're going to do this one more time |
| 881s | so excited that they're sticking |
| 882s | together they had an incredible |
| 885s | 2023 not to mention the fact that they |
| 887s | went ahead and they won major one of |
| 889s | that year and their following |
| 891s | performances 6 Sixth and then seventh at |
| 894s | globals such a dominant Duo and I'm |
| 896s | excited that they're going to be popping |
| 897s | off yet again in major number one here |
| 900s | and I got to say listen you know SPG he |
| 902s | always has some very very wise stats |
| 904s | that he goes ahead to find and one of |
| 906s | them that he went out and put on the |
| 907s | socials was that Acorn has two fncs |
| 911s | championships both of which were one are |
| 914s | the first fncs of the year and Kelly |
| 916s | would you look at that we're in major |
| 917s | number one the first of the year I can't |
| 919s | wait to see if the trend |
| 921s | continues yeah I mean they've already |
| 923s | shown some domination in the earlier |
| 925s | rounds they did Ju Just get 93rd Place |
| 928s | in round three which was a bit |
| 930s | surprising especially with how their |
| 931s | performance was last year however in one |
| 934s | of those games they grabbed 28 |
| 935s | eliminations Acorn absolutely clutched |
| 938s | out an amazing 1v2 in the final moments |
| 940s | there which we know between Acorn and |
| 942s | cold both of these players have those |
| 944s | solo clutch opportunities and they're |
| 946s | also Landing fencing fields which has a |
| 949s | lot of opportunities for them that's |
| 951s | right speaking of opportunities you know |
| 953s | we can't talk about can't not talk about |
| 956s | probably the most decorated player it's |
| 957s | Booga but check check this out we |
| 959s | mentioned the swap UPS Nowa is playing |
| 962s | with aiv Vivid what can we expect from |
| 965s | this formation yeah this is one of the |
| 967s | ones that I'm excited to talk about I |
| 969s | mean bua kind of follows the trend that |
| 971s | we've been seeing come from him over the |
| 973s | past couple years right went ahead and |
| 975s | played invitation with miror didn't do |
| 976s | too hot so he went ahead and switched up |
| 978s | his do ended up playing with threats |
| 980s | made it to the global Championship but |
| 982s | again not a performance that he was |
| 983s | looking for so again we've got the new |
| 985s | duo in aiv and let me tell you something |
| 987s | this meta right this snipers being in |
| 990s | the game just makes this Duo so much |
| 992s | better the the cohesion the timing that |
| 995s | they have on some of their Snipes is so |
| 997s | good I've seen so many highlights of |
| 999s | them just taking out a Duo like |
| 1001s | instantly with two head shot yeah and |
| 1004s | beyond their mechanical ability they're |
| 1006s | also incredibly comp TGA being one of |
| 1008s | the most decorated players in the world |
| 1011s | and he's shown time and time again that |
| 1012s | he's not just this one hit wonder from |
| 1014s | 2019 no he's constantly been in the top |
| 1016s | three time and time again and and they |
| 1019s | had an incredible performance in round |
| 1021s | three they got 17th Place and more |
| 1023s | importantly to me was their consistency |
| 1025s | they were able to grab a bunch of |
| 1027s | eliminations in several games and we're |
| 1029s | going to see how important that is today |
| 1032s | absolutely now his old dual made in |
| 1034s | Peter bot is the last du I wanted to |
| 1036s | mention but now paired up with poo we |
| 1039s | kind of talked about these players a lot |
| 1041s | last year kind of separately but we |
| 1044s | brought these two Titans together talk |
| 1046s | to me about these guys you know I'll go |
| 1048s | ahead and summarizes duo with one word |
| 1050s | and one word only mechanics absolutely |
| 1054s | dominant in that category and the fact |
| 1056s | that they've gone ahead and teamed up |
| 1057s | together might make them the most |
| 1059s | mechanical Duo that we have ever seen |
| 1062s | and I'm just so excited to see how they |
| 1064s | perform in an fncs style format right |
| 1066s | where the competition is just a little |
| 1067s | bit more Fierce because we have seen on |
| 1069s | an individual level some incredible |
| 1071s | performances out of both of them when it |
| 1074s | concerns the victory solo cash cups that |
| 1076s | we have had throughout the season they |
| 1078s | both have put up |
| 1079s | very high elimination games in those |
| 1082s | competitions so I'm excited to see them |
| 1084s | team up and see if we can see some high |
| 1087s | elimination games out of them today oh |
| 1089s | yeah poo was a a namesake over in na |
| 1092s | West back when it was its own region and |
| 1094s | then even moving on to na Central with |
| 1096s | Sphinx had an incredible performance and |
| 1098s | Peter bot you know we were talking about |
| 1099s | boa and all the DU M that he's had Peter |
| 1102s | bot has played with buga quanti Larson |
| 1104s | and Vio last year and now joined up with |
| 1106s | poo but like you were saying Vivid |
| 1109s | incredibly uh gifted players as far as |
| 1112s | just grabbing those incredible Snipes |
| 1114s | and shots so excited to see how they're |
| 1115s | going to do today that's right there's |
| 1117s | one last Duo a little bonus one we |
| 1119s | wanted to talk about but it's your |
| 1121s | casters that will be introducing them so |
| 1123s | give them a big warm welcome it's |
| 1124s | monster Def and the best taco let's get |
| 1127s | it and that's right we also have pixs |
| 1129s | here at Taco we want to focus in you and |
| 1131s | I had a second to sit down think about |
| 1134s | it we're going with dukes and threats |
| 1135s | right this is a team that we have to |
| 1137s | highlight yeah and especially given a |
| 1139s | lot of their open uh performances |
| 1142s | leading up to this fourth round I mean |
| 1144s | we've seen this team kind of being on |
| 1146s | top even though it's relatively new it's |
| 1148s | always fun whenever you're in the new |
| 1150s | chapter but I'm excited to see what |
| 1151s | they're able to bring us coming out of |
| 1152s | that drop spot by Grand Glacier today |
| 1155s | because there could be a lot of teams |
| 1158s | unsuspectedly contesting them but I |
| 1160s | think this is a Duo that can certainly |
| 1161s | handle the heat I mean absolutely Dukes |
| 1163s | does have several fncs titles already |
| 1165s | under his belt let's see if threats can |
| 1167s | help him also pull pull some more |
| 1169s | through but other than that I mean we |
| 1171s | have a lot of competition in front of us |
| 1174s | Zeke man we do again we're going to be |
| 1178s | jumping in we're going to be hopping |
| 1179s | between lobbies to see how this is all |
| 1181s | unfolding now because there's these five |
| 1184s | lobbies all happening at the same time |
| 1186s | one game a du might land and be like hey |
| 1188s | we've got this great spot it's |
| 1189s | uncontested the next time they load in |
| 1191s | suddenly there's five Duos all competing |
| 1194s | for that one spot so why don't we take a |
| 1196s | moment and highlight some of these key |
| 1198s | poi that these players will be landing |
| 1200s | at and honestly Vivid why they might be |
| 1202s | looking to contest these spots yeah it's |
| 1204s | very very important to remember kind of |
| 1205s | like the format that we're playing into |
| 1207s | 250 teams queuing in at the same time |
| 1210s | which means that you have no idea who's |
| 1212s | going to be in your game which makes |
| 1214s | some of these objectives around the map |
| 1216s | so important some of these mythic pois |
| 1219s | each and every single one of them |
| 1221s | they're being five dropping a weapon and |
| 1223s | a medallion the medallions have pretty |
| 1225s | much been like the namesake I feel like |
| 1227s | of this season because they have been so |
| 1230s | good at making sure that you and your |
| 1231s | Duo can stay very very healthy in the |
| 1233s | shield category you know making sure you |
| 1235s | always have 50 Shield as long as you |
| 1237s | don't take much damage for a couple of |
| 1240s | seconds and yeah with this new format |
| 1242s | right 250 teams queing in at the same |
| 1244s | time means again these teams have extra |
| 1247s | games they're going to maybe want to do |
| 1248s | like a wkey game or go for something a |
| 1250s | little bit more risky which is why I |
| 1252s | think we'll see some of these mythic |
| 1253s | pois Kelly be very contested sometimes |
| 1256s | oh yeah and and Beyond just the Mythic |
| 1258s | weapons as well as the medallions that |
| 1260s | you get you also have the Vault down |
| 1261s | below which has an opportunity for you |
| 1263s | to get some much needed weapons a lot of |
| 1265s | people looking of course for those |
| 1266s | snipers as well as gold down below there |
| 1268s | and they also have the weapons workbench |
| 1270s | which allows you to add any weapon |
| 1272s | attachment that you want and that in |
| 1274s | itself has been kind of a big part of |
| 1276s | the new chapter that's right that's |
| 1278s | right we also can't forget forecast |
| 1280s | Towers right these things are crucial to |
| 1283s | some of these Duos being able to see |
| 1285s | where the next Zone will be is Vital |
| 1288s | Information for some players the kind of |
| 1290s | twist though is there's only that three |
| 1292s | that spawn per game so vivid some of |
| 1295s | these Duos might be thinking I'm going |
| 1296s | to Land close by I didn't get that spawn |
| 1298s | maybe I'm not going yeah as if the |
| 1300s | Mythic pois weren't an objective enough |
| 1302s | right we got the Four cast Towers like |
| 1304s | Zeke mentioned even another objective |
| 1306s | around the map that some of our Duos |
| 1308s | have strategized around some of their |
| 1310s | drop spots are pretty much completely |
| 1312s | Reliant sometimes around getting the |
| 1314s | information of that forecast perk which |
| 1317s | is so so strong but again you know I |
| 1320s | just want to keep iterating the fact |
| 1322s | that you know you don't know what's |
| 1323s | going to be happening in your specific |
| 1324s | game it's going to be different teams |
| 1326s | every single game is somebody going to |
| 1328s | be more willing to go for the forecast |
| 1329s | Tower because they have extra games you |
| 1332s | know all of these teams that have their |
| 1333s | strategies based around Mystic pois or |
| 1335s | the forecast Tower they could run into |
| 1337s | some trouble |
| 1338s | today yeah I think the keyword for at |
| 1341s | least this week is going to be |
| 1343s | unpredictable we really don't know I |
| 1345s | mean EU already had some crazy moments |
| 1347s | in the final games I think we even |
| 1349s | happen to see a 40 bomb which you know |
| 1351s | in set lobbies is impossible but I still |
| 1354s | didn't think we were going to be seeing |
| 1356s | that here today that's right look if if |
| 1359s | any had a chance they got to watch EU |
| 1362s | and now we'll have to see what they |
| 1363s | bring to the table right so now as we |
| 1365s | kind of get closer to to the game |
| 1366s | starting I wanted to kind of pick your |
| 1368s | brains on a few things so we kind of |
| 1369s | highlighted the attachments to these |
| 1371s | weapons I was curious to get your guys |
| 1372s | thoughts so obviously there's four spots |
| 1374s | you have a couple attachments per spot |
| 1376s | do you guys feel like with every weapon |
| 1378s | there's kind of that designated like you |
| 1379s | want this in this spot or do you feel |
| 1382s | like some players will pick up a weapon |
| 1383s | and go well I think I'm going to kind of |
| 1384s | mix and match these things to kind of |
| 1386s | play toward my play style I think |
| 1388s | everybody probably has their preferences |
| 1390s | my preference is to just pretty much |
| 1392s | always make sure that my AR has a hollow |
| 1395s | on it or a red dot right because it just |
| 1397s | completely changes kind of how the |
| 1399s | shooting works right if you don't have |
| 1400s | that red dot on there then you know |
| 1402s | Bloom is still a factor but if you go |
| 1404s | ahead and throw that on there it kind of |
| 1405s | changes it removes the Bloom from it but |
| 1408s | of course Kelly newly added this season |
| 1410s | you still got that bullet drop off to |
| 1412s | account for yes yeah and I thought like |
| 1415s | for a a a little bit it was going to be |
| 1417s | a much bigger Nerf but it doesn't seem |
| 1419s | to be affecting players too much of |
| 1421s | course and then you have different |
| 1423s | weapons that kind of provide different |
| 1424s | play Styles like Reit who I will |
| 1426s | probably talk about for the rest of the |
| 1427s | month uh is absolutely Wild on the SMG |
| 1430s | obviously there's players that are super |
| 1432s | good with snipers and then of course you |
| 1434s | can't ignore the pump shotgun that |
| 1436s | everyone just seems to love so I don't |
| 1438s | think it's so much about what augments |
| 1440s | can these players kind of build around |
| 1441s | their play style but just the weapons |
| 1443s | themselves yeah okay and one final topic |
| 1446s | sniper rifles let's discuss obviously |
| 1449s | they're they're such an impactful and |
| 1451s | big part of some like of of the meta |
| 1453s | right now how do you guys feel like |
| 1455s | maybe for newer viewers what should they |
| 1457s | expect from sniper rifles uh expect a |
| 1459s | lot of damage right you know these these |
| 1461s | players that were going to be watching |
| 1463s | today fncs Lobby's top 250 on the region |
| 1467s | they're going to know how to snipe right |
| 1469s | so I'm sure that we will see a ton of |
| 1471s | Snipes here today somes that I don't |
| 1473s | even think were possible |
| 1475s | sometimes I mean the fact that there |
| 1477s | literally is one called The Reaper |
| 1478s | sniper rifle I think is a perfect |
| 1480s | namesake for what a lot of these players |
| 1482s | are going to be experiencing and a lot |
| 1483s | of them are going to have to maybe plan |
| 1486s | some strategies around getting sniped |
| 1488s | out okay okay well the stage is set here |
| 1491s | for us and again if you're just tuning |
| 1492s | in welcome this is the fncs this is Na |
| 1495s | and again we're going to have a series |
| 1496s | of five lobbies to be hopping in between |
| 1498s | we're going to be checking in checking |
| 1500s | on the leaderboards between games and |
| 1501s | getting right back into all of the |
| 1503s | action of course now with that being |
| 1505s | said we're going to toss it on over to |
| 1506s | our cast who are standing by it's the |
| 1508s | best taco it's monster D to get us |
| 1510s | prepared for the |
| 1513s | competition that's right and that's what |
| 1514s | makes this exciting of course we have |
| 1516s | all of this action we're going to be |
| 1517s | covering this first game being the only |
| 1519s | one we actually get to see some of the |
| 1521s | draw spot Taco talk to me about how |
| 1523s | significant it's going to be for the |
| 1524s | players in particular as we start |
| 1526s | queuing into the rounds I mean I'm just |
| 1528s | expecting a little bit of Calamity for |
| 1530s | some of these earlier rounds at lease |
| 1532s | MDF just because of the sole factor that |
| 1534s | you don't know who might also be landing |
| 1537s | at your drop spot but you have to expect |
| 1539s | that especially pois that have the |
| 1542s | medallions for example those I would |
| 1544s | imagine be contested practically every |
| 1546s | single match possible yeah and there are |
| 1548s | five different spots and then of course |
| 1550s | the Vault drop spots that we've seen be |
| 1552s | also highly contested but The Medallion |
| 1554s | is by far the most impactful util ility |
| 1558s | item you can essentially run in your |
| 1560s | inventory into your kit so I'm thinking |
| 1563s | every single game yes if you're you've |
| 1565s | chosen to drop at one of those locations |
| 1567s | I mean sure you're going to have to |
| 1568s | fight for it luckily though however you |
| 1570s | have all this time right you have this |
| 1571s | window to queue into it's not like |
| 1573s | there's actually a set amount of rounds |
| 1575s | it's really what can you do to optimize |
| 1577s | how many qes you essentially get to drop |
| 1580s | spot into right to go ahead and earn as |
| 1582s | many points as possible so Taco I mean |
| 1584s | I'm thinking we're going to likely see |
| 1586s | some teams go for a more aggressive play |
| 1589s | style early on to really secure in a |
| 1591s | hefty amount of eliminations yeah that's |
| 1594s | always kind of been North America's |
| 1596s | Forte as well I mean you want to talk |
| 1598s | about aggression when you look at some |
| 1599s | of the mechanical dependent players that |
| 1601s | we have because I think Canada even in |
| 1603s | the video said it best I mean |
| 1605s | everybody's got good mechanics |
| 1606s | everybody's got good builds but what I'm |
| 1607s | going to keep an eye out for is how |
| 1609s | players handle some rotations and their |
| 1611s | placements because if EU was any |
| 1613s | indicator we saw a decent amount of heal |
| 1615s | offs taking place in the earlier portion |
| 1617s | over in Europe today so I wouldn't be |
| 1619s | too surprised to see North America maybe |
| 1621s | follow suit to an extent yeah I think I |
| 1623s | think we are going to see exactly just |
| 1625s | that I mean at the end of the day you |
| 1627s | only have a couple of opportunities |
| 1629s | right to go ahead and push through in |
| 1630s | this first weekend is going to be an |
| 1632s | extremely important one the funnel has |
| 1634s | uh really constricted its way down to |
| 1636s | just the players that we're of course |
| 1637s | seeing here and there have been some |
| 1639s | upsets it hasn't been the easiest funnel |
| 1641s | to get into for these top 250 teams so I |
| 1644s | am expecting not only to be a a very |
| 1646s | Fierce competition set as far as the |
| 1648s | lobbies are concerned but I think we are |
| 1650s | going to see people um necessarily not |
| 1653s | circum to the pressure and try to go you |
| 1655s | know all out because for the first time |
| 1658s | you know in a long time we're seeing a |
| 1659s | Lobby set where it's just a little bit |
| 1662s | of everything right so if they treat |
| 1663s | like a regular uh competitive game and |
| 1666s | that that little bit of volatility can |
| 1667s | play I think more into the team's favors |
| 1669s | that are a little more aggressive but it |
| 1671s | sounds like the battle bus is ready Taco |
| 1672s | let's jump |
| 1677s | in |
| 1679s | and just like that MDF the very first |
| 1683s | few rounds here in North America are |
| 1686s | finally taking place and as far as our |
| 1689s | first Duo is concerned that we're going |
| 1691s | to kind of be taking note of hearing |
| 1694s | something about Blake and |
| 1696s | mawood which is a relatively interesting |
| 1699s | deal because there's a lot of experience |
| 1701s | and I think experience is really going |
| 1702s | to be key because again it's just about |
| 1704s | players that are are very accustomed to |
| 1708s | having to be so adaptable so flexible |
| 1710s | and mawood Blake already just trying to |
| 1713s | do what they can as soon he steps they |
| 1715s | want to take out Peter Griffin here |
| 1717s | because the intention again monster it's |
| 1720s | it's about The Medallion it's about |
| 1721s | getting the play for The Medallion |
| 1724s | there's only five of them and this is |
| 1725s | one of those locations but take a look |
| 1727s | it wasn't a it wasn't a free drop by any |
| 1729s | means there were four teams here um |
| 1732s | themselves included besides uh you know |
| 1735s | the fact that the others didn't directly |
| 1736s | contest them so maybe they got a bit |
| 1738s | lucky there but that's what it's going |
| 1740s | to look like when it comes down to |
| 1741s | Medallion drops jumping with seek and |
| 1742s | dash though seek with a clutch up on |
| 1745s | behalf of his team and not only that |
| 1746s | taking out a very notable du out there |
| 1749s | Lawrence and chubs that quick it is over |
| 1753s | for chubs Chubs is going to fall from |
| 1754s | Team Prodigy super unfortunate for him |
| 1757s | and uh hey there's some familiarity |
| 1760s | there right as Prodigy seek is of course |
| 1763s | on the same Esports team so very |
| 1764s | interesting fight that just unfolded |
| 1766s | there but that's what happens right 2502 |
| 1768s | uh Duos you queue in I mean you have to |
| 1771s | assume maybe a part of their strategy |
| 1773s | right their their um in preparation is |
| 1777s | of course practicing some of these |
| 1778s | similar rotations so super unfortunate |
| 1780s | but that's what's going to happen |
| 1781s | throughout the |
| 1782s | day and on that note also have to keep |
| 1785s | in mind there's bound to be teams that |
| 1788s | have just studied other teams drops |
| 1790s | because as long as you have a general |
| 1792s | idea of the loot path that some of these |
| 1795s | teams are going to be trying to you know |
| 1797s | obviously optimize whatever Farms them |
| 1799s | the fastest but at the same time that |
| 1801s | could work against them if you're trying |
| 1804s | to make the same plays every single time |
| 1805s | because again these players they kind of |
| 1807s | ingrain that it's almost like muscle |
| 1809s | memory once they really get going with |
| 1811s | some of their drop Maps but not every |
| 1815s | team necessarily getting off to a super |
| 1817s | aggressive start we got Bucky and okas |
| 1819s | here at fencing Fields curious |
| 1822s | if Nisha has already been taken care of |
| 1825s | if somebody's been able to claim that |
| 1828s | Striker AR |
| 1830s | Mythic well before we get there though |
| 1832s | boa and a have a problem on their hands |
| 1834s | and it seems like they're wrapping it up |
| 1835s | pretty quickly here as Booga patches up |
| 1838s | the leak in the building in the pipes |
| 1841s | here and it's all |
| 1844s | his here he got his back playing a |
| 1846s | little defensively there's another Duo |
| 1848s | just above them and this is what I'm |
| 1850s | talking about right fastpaced games off |
| 1852s | to a very hot start I mean we're not |
| 1855s | seeing everyone's going to W key but |
| 1857s | ultimately these drop swap fights if you |
| 1859s | get to win you know two Duos worth of |
| 1862s | eliminations that's a big head start |
| 1865s | Nerf and goo are like yeah maybe not |
| 1867s | though let's get out of here as they |
| 1870s | endend up backing up here kind of |
| 1872s | surprise though they fall back but |
| 1874s | getting a replay look on Booga making |
| 1878s | quick work here and and the other thing |
| 1880s | too is that's that's a great Hammer Pump |
| 1883s | monster so you have to make sure that |
| 1885s | you connect boa with a nice double Elm |
| 1888s | closure there but again back at hazy |
| 1892s | Hillside we already saw one engagement |
| 1894s | take place axe with the frenzy y just a |
| 1897s | little bit quicker on the trigger there |
| 1899s | that's going to eliminate Dash and now |
| 1901s | smoke and axe they know they still have |
| 1905s | company local to them but hrex and juy |
| 1908s | they don't seem all that interested in |
| 1909s | trying to take this engagement and the |
| 1911s | other thing we haven't really been able |
| 1913s | to take note of just yet MDF I mean |
| 1915s | still relatively early on but teams |
| 1918s | trying to manage their surge damage in |
| 1921s | these kinds of lobbies since it's not |
| 1923s | necessarily a set Lobby it's almost like |
| 1926s | you have to practice different surge |
| 1928s | strategies throughout each one of these |
| 1930s | matches yeah I mean ultimately you're |
| 1932s | you might have to push the team that's |
| 1934s | picking up that reboot right normally |
| 1935s | we'll see that um happen anyways but |
| 1938s | when when it's in a Lobby like this yeah |
| 1940s | you're not guaranteed to know who's on |
| 1942s | your rotation who's on your pathway |
| 1944s | right there's very little you can do to |
| 1945s | prepare in that regard so Tak those |
| 1947s | first fights those big opportunities is |
| 1949s | likely going to be um extremely |
| 1950s | important and talk about that looks like |
| 1952s | uh Raiden here has also picked up |
| 1954s | already two eliminations alongside SL |
| 1956s | numin and uh they're just trying to play |
| 1958s | to the Zone they are very hurt but |
| 1961s | luckily it seems like they do by |
| 1963s | themselves just a little bit of time but |
| 1964s | just enough posture to get to the |
| 1966s | vending machine here to go ahead and |
| 1967s | pull out some medkits and likely some |
| 1969s | minis as |
| 1973s | well they just need anything I think at |
| 1976s | that point when you're running so low on |
| 1979s | any sort of heals no form of shields |
| 1982s | yeah the vending machines can definitely |
| 1983s | come up clutch here as Onyx taking full |
| 1986s | advantage of a met kid and again working |
| 1989s | with 80 |
| 1991s | Shield it's it's it's good it's better |
| 1994s | than maybe what other players they've |
| 1996s | encountered have been able to work with |
| 1998s | but I'm also curious to see how builds |
| 2001s | management is afforded to a lot of these |
| 2004s | players because again with things being |
| 2006s | so potentially split and nothing really |
| 2008s | being guaranteed in terms of who's |
| 2010s | nearby some players might find |
| 2013s | themselves not only struggling for surge |
| 2014s | damage but |
| 2015s | just maybe a little bit if you get stuck |
| 2019s | in overc commitments to fights for |
| 2021s | example and you're not able to actually |
| 2022s | Farm up resources like what we're seeing |
| 2023s | pars and Baka take advantage of |
| 2027s | here yeah pars and Baka are really |
| 2030s | looking to see if if they can find a |
| 2032s | team up here I think they have an |
| 2033s | inkling that there might have been |
| 2034s | someone nearby and he was absolutely |
| 2036s | spot on |
| 2038s | pars using the grapple hook to jump ups |
| 2040s | to save material we talked about that |
| 2042s | that conservation that's exactly what he |
| 2044s | wants to do he cracks him for a 110 he |
| 2046s | knows the team is probably already |
| 2048s | healed up here little does he know noxy |
| 2050s | is at Max HP but they have full |
| 2051s | advantage here Taco I mean Natural High |
| 2053s | Ground excellent positioning and not |
| 2055s | only that he knows that they are |
| 2057s | dictating the pace of this battle |
| 2059s | however the zone is on the way so there |
| 2061s | goes the Launchpad off he goes and and |
| 2064s | you know they're going to take the tax |
| 2065s | they're going to be happy with that to |
| 2067s | at least |
| 2067s | pushed them in the right direction here |
| 2070s | yeah par and Baka definitely Veterans of |
| 2073s | the space I would say and so with that |
| 2075s | in mind they're not going to waste any |
| 2077s | time as far as getting a Zone they know |
| 2079s | that they want to prioritize their |
| 2081s | positioning cuz they can look to always |
| 2083s | try and pressure out some of those teams |
| 2085s | they're going to be trying to pull in |
| 2087s | from that east side of the map towards |
| 2090s | the way that the zone is currently |
| 2092s | forming and pars as well he had that |
| 2095s | Mythic Nemesis so he's got Monte |
| 2097s | n AR from Grand Glacier which leads me |
| 2100s | to believe they might even potentially |
| 2101s | have The Medallion from Grand Glacier if |
| 2104s | they've got the the Mythic yeah likely |
| 2106s | the teams are not going to leave that |
| 2108s | one behind that's |
| 2109s | fair meanwhile Quinn and Panda here |
| 2113s | playing a bit defensively as Elsa is |
| 2115s | just eyeing things up trying to see if |
| 2116s | he has an opportunity SharkMan is out is |
| 2119s | down here the trains on its way he's |
| 2121s | going to have to make a move seems like |
| 2123s | he's sto his teammate's reboot card okay |
| 2125s | so he's going to slide all the way on |
| 2126s | back play for the pickup |
| 2130s | here all in all tough spot for them not |
| 2132s | to win their first engagement but at |
| 2135s | least they'll have opportunity to bounce |
| 2137s | back he will be low on material though |
| 2139s | you can see that they've already |
| 2140s | expended most of their resources there |
| 2142s | so going to be pretty tough for SharkMan |
| 2144s | and Company to bounce back into this on |
| 2146s | the other side though Notch and H much |
| 2148s | different story here sunny side of town |
| 2151s | things are looking really nice by The |
| 2152s | Reckless |
| 2155s | rways yeah I think a lot of teams it's |
| 2158s | definitely been a very evident |
| 2160s | competitive meta that a sniper is |
| 2162s | practically a must at this point it's an |
| 2165s | excellent utilization as far as getting |
| 2168s | some of those surge tags early on if |
| 2171s | you're able to connect even with the |
| 2172s | body shots you don't necessarily need |
| 2174s | head shot at the time although they're |
| 2175s | nice because of the the insta knock or |
| 2178s | elim if it's a solo |
| 2180s | but I do think that prioritizing just |
| 2184s | picking up that cash getting as much |
| 2186s | resources and lose possible always good |
| 2189s | looks here as Cooper he's trying to find |
| 2191s | some good looks of his own with that |
| 2192s | Reaper |
| 2193s | and to connect on that last shot but I |
| 2197s | would say Cooper is probably one of the |
| 2199s | last people I'd want to have a sniper |
| 2201s | point in my way at and I was curious if |
| 2203s | he was going to go change his load I'm |
| 2204s | like this man's not rocking a shotgun |
| 2206s | doesn't seem very um very very natural |
| 2209s | for Koopa not to have some kind of big |
| 2211s | big shotgun in hand but seems like he's |
| 2213s | going to opt into the SMG he's got |
| 2214s | plenty of options here as they're |
| 2216s | playing The High Ground is trying to |
| 2217s | take advantage very interesting spot on |
| 2219s | the map as well they kind of find |
| 2221s | themselves uh somewhere towards the uh |
| 2223s | towards the edge here so really |
| 2224s | depending on whether or not the Zone's |
| 2226s | going to pull outwards towards the Rie |
| 2229s | Rivera meanwhile though fight breaking |
| 2231s | out here Caesar and |
| 2236s | demo not not looking too hot for them |
| 2238s | look at look at how much they've already |
| 2240s | invested here into the battle not only |
| 2241s | just material but heals as well so a |
| 2244s | story is to be told here a drawn out |
| 2246s | fight between two parties and so far |
| 2249s | both sides are at a dead even stand |
| 2251s | still but something's got to give here |
| 2253s | and first it's going to be C with a |
| 2255s | great tag so far taco and the pie up but |
| 2257s | the shots clap back and a two on one |
| 2260s | it's an even exchange on both |
| 2262s | sides but demo doesn't want to let this |
| 2265s | go anytime soon he knows that Caesar is |
| 2267s | knocked but he'll look for the Finish |
| 2269s | First onto |
| 2272s | nexi and now with nexi having been |
| 2275s | elimo he's trying to see if he can get |
| 2277s | that revive off onto Caesar Edge does |
| 2280s | not want to push this in fact another |
| 2284s | team going to find themselves trying to |
| 2285s | trickle forward Edge it's now or never |
| 2287s | if they're going to try to make the |
| 2288s | aggressive stance here but demo he's |
| 2290s | just doing what he can to try and get |
| 2291s | his Duo back up and running the revive |
| 2293s | being attempted one more time blocked |
| 2295s | off beautiful edit there from demo to |
| 2298s | save his teammate's life just a couple |
| 2300s | moments longer but hedge he's really |
| 2302s | trying to push this one in it's SharkMan |
| 2303s | it's Elsa SharkMan on a revenge tour |
| 2307s | after having just been rebooted not too |
| 2309s | long ago I'm I'm more confused as to why |
| 2311s | demo be cool hasn't just finished the |
| 2313s | elimination if he picked it up this |
| 2315s | would you know signal to the team on the |
| 2317s | other side like hey you know uh um the |
| 2319s | fight's wrapped up maybe we should back |
| 2321s | out of here you know SharkMan might |
| 2322s | think twice but the fact that he kind of |
| 2324s | delayed it tried to play for the save on |
| 2326s | Caesar might be the the end of it and |
| 2327s | there it is SharkMan comes in finds a |
| 2329s | knock body that's all the information |
| 2331s | there they know oh now you are |
| 2333s | definitely a solo and they picked up |
| 2334s | elimination so this is a huge change of |
| 2336s | events right now now for SharkMan and |
| 2337s | Company all they have to do is find a |
| 2339s | tag here on demo be cool and |
| 2341s | unfortunately it's not looking like he's |
| 2342s | going to last for very long cuz he is |
| 2344s | scrambling right now but it's just a |
| 2346s | matter of time before he gets cut out |
| 2348s | there it is SharkMan back from the |
| 2351s | reboot van and right on into the |
| 2353s | standings there with a couple of |
| 2354s | eliminations very nice for this team |
| 2356s | here and you could just tell though with |
| 2359s | the way that Elsa and SharkMan made that |
| 2360s | approach they wasted absolutely zero |
| 2363s | time ndf just ripping through those |
| 2366s | walls clearing out as much of the edits |
| 2368s | as possible I mean it's not even really |
| 2370s | about them tarping to make that |
| 2371s | aggressive play they were just breaking |
| 2373s | all the builds that were already |
| 2374s | preexisting there and shman again just |
| 2377s | smelling like blood in the water |
| 2378s | essentially he could tell that there was |
| 2381s | no real opportunity there I mean demo |
| 2384s | revives Caesar and then Caesar gets |
| 2386s | instantly knocked |
| 2387s | again just a little bit tragic there as |
| 2390s | well and you know what I'm willing a b |
| 2392s | shark man that's going to be the last |
| 2393s | time he falls that early in a game I |
| 2394s | think you know this is the first game |
| 2396s | you get it out the way the way he's |
| 2397s | playing that confidence uh to to push a |
| 2399s | Duo like that I think that's going to be |
| 2401s | a team that's surely going to perform |
| 2403s | and and finish up towards the upper half |
| 2405s | talk about teams that perform early on |
| 2406s | chimp is known as a as a player that |
| 2409s | does exceptionally well in this type of |
| 2412s | Lobby if the these open style stages I'm |
| 2415s | also feeling very very bullish on the |
| 2417s | fact that chip might be a competitor to |
| 2419s | look out for here today take a look here |
| 2422s | they're not happy with sitting in any |
| 2424s | kind of enemy build here it seems like |
| 2425s | they have bully teams off of this |
| 2427s | General |
| 2428s | location clear in the space getting the |
| 2431s | cach a for himself very nice and look at |
| 2434s | that everything to choose from here so |
| 2437s | just posturing up very nicely Launchpad |
| 2439s | in hand they they're going to be just |
| 2441s | fine for this game |
| 2443s | one that was so much flow Berry Fizz |
| 2445s | though that just got dropped definitely |
| 2448s | an ideal form of utility as well because |
| 2452s | often times in in in end game especially |
| 2455s | especially once we get to those mov M |
| 2456s | zones you'll see teams if they have any |
| 2458s | of that flber fizz just trying to |
| 2460s | utilize it to possibly challenge a |
| 2464s | little bit more towards those secondary |
| 2465s | height layers if not height entirely |
| 2467s | just in case you don't have the grapple |
| 2468s | blade available |
| 2470s | but Zea and |
| 2472s | Shore zaa at least with a grapple blade |
| 2475s | in hand but more curious to see what |
| 2478s | happens here a Bucky and ocus Bucky I |
| 2480s | think a little bit of that six sense |
| 2482s | tingle right now could probably tell |
| 2484s | that this location isn't 100% safe |
| 2489s | especially being so close to that Rift |
| 2491s | Island have to imagine that there's |
| 2493s | other teams kind of lurking near the |
| 2495s | bottom here but again trains just going |
| 2499s | to flow right around some of these bills |
| 2501s | that have been established here by buy |
| 2502s | Andis |
| 2503s | and yeah just really teams trying to |
| 2506s | wait out each other to see who's going |
| 2507s | to make the first rotation essentially |
| 2511s | yeah and I'm thinking they they |
| 2512s | definitely found elimination sitting on |
| 2514s | way too much material they tarped out a |
| 2516s | huge BX so the [ __ ] OAS are having a |
| 2519s | great game one sitting very comfortably |
| 2521s | right |
| 2522s | now meanwhile Visual and braids right |
| 2525s | here on the Move playing a little bit of |
| 2526s | a dead side rotate taking their time |
| 2529s | here as they're trying to utilize this |
| 2531s | little bit of land mass before they |
| 2533s | inevitably will have to play into the |
| 2535s | Waterfront there this is a this is a |
| 2538s | pretty odd Zone to play off of I'm being |
| 2539s | honest just out for the rebel Rost |
| 2541s | there's going to be a big body of water |
| 2542s | before you get to the ritzy um and you |
| 2545s | know what there's a team there is a team |
| 2547s | that's also looking back at the edge of |
| 2549s | the Zone I think they know that they |
| 2550s | have a very advantageous position here |
| 2552s | and if they just follow their gut if |
| 2554s | they follow their hunch they'll be spot |
| 2556s | on potentially to open themselves up to |
| 2558s | two free elim I mean what I can't help |
| 2561s | but notice with visuals is that that AR |
| 2563s | ammo is looking incredibly low maybe bra |
| 2567s | has more that he can split but visuals |
| 2569s | can't really be taking these long shot |
| 2574s | exchanges maybe initially a couple of |
| 2576s | rounds rounds can be exchanged but I |
| 2578s | just don't think 41 is the count that |
| 2582s | you're looking for when you're trying to |
| 2584s | approach on a on a dead side rotation |
| 2586s | because if they are under in the |
| 2588s | slightest first surge here on thef could |
| 2592s | be problematic and look it was Baka and |
| 2594s | pars who had the feeling there might |
| 2595s | have been a team there and it looks like |
| 2597s | they let their guard down for just a |
| 2598s | moment and visuals and crew slip by and |
| 2601s | make their way to the land mass so Lo |
| 2603s | and pars lose out an opportunity and |
| 2605s | just talking about the the ammo |
| 2607s | difference right visuals and Company |
| 2609s | little do they know they would not have |
| 2610s | been able to put up a long range |
| 2612s | defensive stance it's just not going to |
| 2614s | happen they don't have the ammo for it |
| 2616s | but that's the uh that's the fun part |
| 2618s | about being behind the camera like we |
| 2620s | are right we get to see all of this |
| 2621s | little bits of inside and kind of know |
| 2623s | what's at stake but on the other side B |
| 2625s | and pars is just playing off Instinct |
| 2627s | here meanwhile we jump over to meor |
| 2629s | who's got the bit of High Ground here |
| 2630s | alongside Cooper Z's going to pretty |
| 2632s | much pull towards them this is a very |
| 2633s | favorable spot to be in but not looking |
| 2636s | too hot either on the inventory count |
| 2638s | here half the material counts |
| 2639s | essentially already invested in this |
| 2642s | massive base here and it's going to go |
| 2643s | to |
| 2645s | waste definitely seeing quite a few |
| 2648s | teams that are more or less kind of in |
| 2650s | need of a refresh whether it's for |
| 2652s | materials or just for ammo something's |
| 2656s | got to give at some point and Bucky he's |
| 2659s | already given everything as he will be |
| 2662s | on sacrifice so far here Oak is doing |
| 2664s | what he can to try and see he can pull |
| 2666s | this one through but Bucky he might just |
| 2669s | be trapped here don't think there's any |
| 2671s | opportunity for okus to look for that |
| 2673s | revive ax ver smoke possibly just taking |
| 2677s | their time toying with that finish on |
| 2680s | the Bucky and we were just complimenting |
| 2681s | this team for how far they were able to |
| 2683s | tarp out seems though as if they had to |
| 2685s | leave that initial location that they'd |
| 2687s | established a little bit of a safety |
| 2688s | base in mvf and now with smoke it's ax |
| 2691s | firste they want this final elimination |
| 2694s | onto okus because again you start one |
| 2697s | battle it's not just going to be you and |
| 2700s | them there's always the rest of the |
| 2702s | lobby to get involved and that's |
| 2703s | something that we've seen SharkMan and |
| 2704s | Elsa already take advantage of once this |
| 2708s | game can imagine they're trying to see |
| 2710s | if they can run it back with a little |
| 2712s | bit of that third party action but smoke |
| 2714s | and x |
| 2715s | firste two eims in |
| 2719s | toe and the main thing I'm noticing is |
| 2722s | the max M they're pushing back though |
| 2724s | they know they're like hey Bucky we got |
| 2726s | you where's okus and they find him just |
| 2728s | on this upward layer here making it look |
| 2730s | easy and you know what I have to I have |
| 2732s | to assume that it's because of the the |
| 2733s | momentum swing from SharkMan and Elsa |
| 2736s | possibly opening up the pressure right |
| 2738s | the line of fire here because Bucky and |
| 2740s | okus like you talked about they were |
| 2743s | extremely comfortable something had to |
| 2745s | go terribly wrong and I think it's that |
| 2747s | they opened up the box against SharkMan |
| 2749s | they probably had twoo many tags smok |
| 2751s | and crew just come on in and they finish |
| 2753s | the job making it look nice and easy |
| 2755s | that's what happens when you have teams |
| 2756s | that are feeling confident that are |
| 2757s | moving and and they're closing fights |
| 2759s | quickly right look at this Booga even |
| 2762s | fighting back here in the water shame |
| 2764s | was the sniper meta talking about he see |
| 2767s | the shot come through that's the risk |
| 2768s | you take as you start to Poise up in the |
| 2771s | open like that look at how many teams |
| 2773s | nearby I'm more surprised that the |
| 2775s | entire Lobby hasn't found that fresh |
| 2776s | angle here but no they are just slow |
| 2779s | enough white tags are going come through |
| 2781s | is going to make the call here let's |
| 2782s | push this fight we're going to finish |
| 2783s | them off and look at this not even going |
| 2785s | head on takes the side angle right it's |
| 2787s | the little bits of positioning here it's |
| 2789s | the it's the couple of um Small Things |
| 2792s | the small differences that put him to be |
| 2794s | one of the best one of the world class |
| 2795s | players he puts himself on the left side |
| 2797s | to have the right camera Peak it's just |
| 2799s | so textbook making it look very easy and |
| 2802s | not only that op the line of fire for |
| 2805s | aiv right there not getting in his own |
| 2806s | teammate's way the little things aiv and |
| 2809s | booger showing signs of excellent |
| 2812s | gameplay right now and also Synergy as |
| 2814s | du mates I'm feeling very good about |
| 2817s | this team now I think I think Vivid |
| 2819s | might have been right putting a |
| 2820s | spotlight on |
| 2821s | him when they're making plays like that |
| 2824s | yeah it makes total sense by Vivid has |
| 2828s | so much respect along with I think just |
| 2830s | about everybody that's paid a little bit |
| 2832s | of attention towards fortnite history |
| 2835s | but buga and aiv they're not the only |
| 2837s | ones trying to create their own |
| 2838s | opportunities right now it's for you and |
| 2841s | Goldberg seeing it they can push so |
| 2843s | heavily but it's going to be a complete |
| 2844s | Turn and Burn here from zaa does wind up |
| 2847s | losing short in the |
| 2849s | process don't think he'll be able to get |
| 2851s | that revive off in time so it's looking |
| 2853s | like zaa is going to have to resume the |
| 2855s | rest of this game as a solo |
| 2859s | clutch but he's not the only solo that's |
| 2862s | moving right now and the main priority |
| 2865s | is just making it into Zone grapple |
| 2866s | blade going to mitigate some of the |
| 2868s | damage pressure from that but he's got |
| 2871s | to wait for those recharges to come |
| 2872s | through now the builds getting expended |
| 2875s | at a rapid right here everybody |
| 2877s | recognizing the fact that the solo has |
| 2879s | just entered the safe |
| 2882s | Zone but how safe are you really as a |
| 2886s | solo up against the likes of two Duos |
| 2888s | right next to |
| 2889s | you well we'll have to see it Ze has |
| 2892s | been cooking off camera and in fact we |
| 2895s | might as well run it back one more time |
| 2897s | for you guys take a look at how he picks |
| 2898s | up two quick eliminations here moving |
| 2900s | alongside his teammate sh this is a very |
| 2902s | experienced Duo this is a team that |
| 2904s | handles the pressure very well wver |
| 2906s | getss taken down he lets the Wall come |
| 2908s | down pre-ir the shot lands it most |
| 2911s | importantly and close the deal as we |
| 2913s | start approaching the end game though |
| 2915s | Cooper and Miro already in position Baka |
| 2918s | and pars likely in a very strong spot to |
| 2920s | win this game as well I know we see them |
| 2922s | on the low ground but last we checked in |
| 2923s | they had a lot of material and look at |
| 2925s | this Meo and Cooper haven't expended |
| 2928s | much they are using these grapple hooks |
| 2929s | wonderfully to move uh just right along |
| 2932s | Zone to Zone here and get position to |
| 2934s | position and now honestly they could |
| 2935s | even rearm here they can situate |
| 2938s | themselves even better we jump in with |
| 2939s | Bing pars not a single elimination Taco |
| 2942s | but all the material in the |
| 2944s | world seems as though par and Baka done |
| 2946s | an excellent job of kind of just |
| 2947s | sticking towards this low ground finding |
| 2951s | other teams cleanups |
| 2954s | potentially looks like some kind of |
| 2956s | battle took place at least where where |
| 2958s | Baka and pars are currently located and |
| 2960s | now they're both just getting back to |
| 2962s | Max Shield they want to make sure that |
| 2964s | they are full healthy when they go for |
| 2966s | their next method of attack here but |
| 2969s | buga and aiv right now their only focus |
| 2971s | is on just controlling The High Ground |
| 2974s | this is right around the time where you |
| 2977s | would kind of expect the team to really |
| 2979s | start applying some pressure onto |
| 2981s | everyone else in those lower layers but |
| 2983s | bugga they're going to have to be |
| 2984s | careful of some of these other teams |
| 2986s | that might have those grapple blades in |
| 2987s | toe it's not necessarily a guaranteed |
| 2990s | freebie trying to hold on to height yeah |
| 2992s | listen I I see everyone talking about |
| 2994s | flber this Flo use that no I'm talking |
| 2997s | about close State and the are locked in |
| 2999s | right now they have The High Ground they |
| 3001s | have so much space between them and |
| 3003s | their opponents they they are just in a |
| 3004s | completely different Stratosphere right |
| 3006s | now looking extremely comfortable |
| 3008s | meanwhile Chip and sers are down in the |
| 3010s | shambles box here below the storm surge |
| 3013s | slowly running out of material here they |
| 3015s | have to do something big or or they're |
| 3017s | going to start falling down this totem |
| 3019s | pole pretty quickly here so as they |
| 3021s | start moving to the front side of Zone |
| 3022s | let's see if they can take a |
| 3024s | fight that's the thing even with Twix it |
| 3028s | on the other side of this wall chimp |
| 3030s | doesn't want to just rush in mindlessly |
| 3032s | kind of trying to do what he can to |
| 3034s | gauge the situation gauge just how many |
| 3036s | Duos how many solos are actually in |
| 3038s | these low ground layers with him and |
| 3040s | sers and now |
| 3043s | chimp finally finding some moments |
| 3045s | trying for but again materials are so |
| 3048s | low Cooper Mir actually going to drop to |
| 3050s | the low ground |
| 3052s | temporarily it seems as though they want |
| 3054s | to just re restructure |
| 3056s | reorganized from where they actually |
| 3059s | want to set up here in this like midr |
| 3062s | layer but Cooper just continuing to turn |
| 3065s | forward hog knock they're the ones now |
| 3067s | trying to apply some pressure onto the |
| 3070s | other side of the wall it's going to be |
| 3071s | Baka in fact not sure if pars went down |
| 3074s | as well but Baka being eliminated by hav |
| 3076s | knock that is a massive take out yeah I |
| 3079s | didn't I didn't think that would happen |
| 3080s | especially considering they had so much |
| 3082s | to work with f and far 2 was some of the |
| 3084s | best you know Fighters that we on the |
| 3086s | region right now they're locked in here |
| 3088s | but zaa just holding on that Med Kit's |
| 3091s | going to go all the way through that's a |
| 3092s | wind condition now completely used up |
| 3095s | here trying to put himself in a spot |
| 3098s | sometimes just easier though to play for |
| 3099s | yourself here let's see if Ze can find |
| 3101s | at least a single impact elimination |
| 3102s | pressure's coming in he's in a world of |
| 3104s | trouble though the enemy box is there |
| 3106s | and I was I was curious why we're going |
| 3107s | to be able to given up their their |
| 3109s | positioning here but it seems like they |
| 3110s | just read the Zone perfectly here they |
| 3112s | just gave it up temporarily to get in |
| 3114s | front and it's going to be Cooper first |
| 3117s | of fall here do himself an auto |
| 3120s | only Auto only being Miro of course but |
| 3125s | when you're left to try and deal with |
| 3127s | all this congestion that's been building |
| 3128s | the midg ground layers massive shot |
| 3130s | there from off that's going to be a |
| 3131s | medallion pick up as well for hop and |
| 3136s | knock just trying to do what they can to |
| 3138s | get those Shields but par is actually |
| 3141s | still up and running so it was |
| 3143s | exclusively Baka that got elim earlier |
| 3145s | on almost Jinx pars into Oblivion but |
| 3147s | instead a little bit of Revenge here as |
| 3149s | scissor it's going to be an eim that |
| 3152s | pars will claim for his |
| 3156s | Duo but now Auto |
| 3160s | only not going to be able to cut the Gap |
| 3162s | there with that grapple blade |
| 3163s | unfortunately will fall the storm damage |
| 3167s | havin KN though doing such a good job in |
| 3169s | the secondary height layer have to |
| 3171s | imagine that stilla and a up top trying |
| 3174s | to apply some pressure and then again |
| 3176s | all the way down to the low ground |
| 3177s | you've got pars clinging on for dear |
| 3180s | life here and bf it is not an easy |
| 3183s | position but pretty solid solo clut so |
| 3185s | far yeah I mean listen this is what you |
| 3187s | expect from a team that's just this good |
| 3190s | they're going to perform everyone's |
| 3191s | going to put up the numbers this is what |
| 3192s | ne's best is all |
| 3194s | about knock though the last |
| 3198s | representative here as hog just recently |
| 3201s | being elim buga still holding The High |
| 3204s | Ground he's got a VI to his own devices |
| 3207s | down below trying to do what he can to |
| 3208s | take out all these other teams a |
| 3210s | successful elimination though for aiv as |
| 3212s | he gets knocked in the process which's |
| 3214s | going to forcea down buta he's just |
| 3217s | looking for the capitalized shots here |
| 3219s | and he will find it one of our rounds |
| 3222s | being won by buga and aiv yeah this is |
| 3225s | definitely a team that we're going to |
| 3226s | have to keep our eyes on what a |
| 3228s | wonderful finish to a close game but for |
| 3231s | boa and aiv once they got themselves |
| 3233s | into a position to succeed they did not |
| 3236s | look back for a moment though they had |
| 3237s | us gased we were wondering what is going |
| 3240s | on why would they give up a a strong |
| 3242s | positioning like that but instead they |
| 3243s | said hey look mbf give me a second let |
| 3245s | me walk through some M builds for for a |
| 3247s | moment here and the moment it pulls back |
| 3249s | they clutch out here take a look at |
| 3250s | those Final Moments One More Time bua |
| 3252s | jumps off saves himself from taking |
| 3254s | damage puts himself in the front and |
| 3256s | just like that it's over couple tags as |
| 3257s | well just to ice the cake and just like |
| 3260s | that we get to toss on over to the fam |
| 3261s | at the desk because of Eva are game one |
| 3264s | winners |
| 3267s | well that's why we have to kind of put |
| 3269s | respect on their name the first game of |
| 3271s | the day here in this Lobby my oh my and |
| 3275s | with such a |
| 3287s | [Music] |
| 3294s | swaggishhooligan47 yeah I mean a lot of |
| 3296s | that action was actually coming from |
| 3297s | buga n we saw some very very aggressive |
| 3300s | plays throughout the mid game right |
| 3301s | those refreshes that they were finding |
| 3303s | just before some of these zones started |
| 3305s | to pull very very far including this one |
| 3307s | right here pretty much putting that duo |
| 3309s | in a montage in Booga fashion allowed |
| 3312s | them to have the materials to go ahead |
| 3314s | and actually build up on The High Ground |
| 3316s | And from this point forward they just |
| 3317s | had it for the rest of the game I mean I |
| 3320s | want to speak more of that midgame |
| 3321s | engagement around Zone 7 where buga and |
| 3324s | VI were in a Perfect Situation however |
| 3326s | they're getting beam from across the |
| 3328s | lake they buga doesn't fret for a moment |
| 3331s | he's just you know kind of recycling |
| 3333s | through his wood builds not really |
| 3334s | freaking out too much until viiv and |
| 3337s | buga see that white damage that they |
| 3339s | take onto the opponent and then that's |
| 3341s | when they go in with the engage they use |
| 3343s | the grappler blades they go in and |
| 3345s | immediately grab the eliminations and |
| 3346s | it's really that patience and |
| 3348s | understanding that buga just brings so |
| 3351s | much Beyond other players yeah he's got |
| 3353s | a massive brain and he does not mind |
| 3355s | letting the lobby know just how many |
| 3357s | steps ahead of everyone else he is we |
| 3360s | wanted to highlight Cooper and Meo there |
| 3361s | as well just a couple key clutch moments |
| 3364s | remember we're just trying to put on the |
| 3366s | best performance we can over these next |
| 3368s | two weeks and for this Duo specifically |
| 3370s | especially again with that Global |
| 3372s | championship title we have high |
| 3375s | expectations and after game one I feel |
| 3377s | like they're in a good starting spot |
| 3379s | yeah 100% still a lot to play for and |
| 3381s | just got to give a big shout out to |
| 3382s | Cooper because he has taken on the role |
| 3384s | of an igl so well if you ever get an |
| 3386s | opportunity to tune into one of this one |
| 3388s | of his streams the way that he talks |
| 3391s | he's always very very descriptive in his |
| 3393s | coms and it's just very very easy for |
| 3395s | him to mesh with Meo and then you just |
| 3397s | leave Meo in one of these situations |
| 3399s | where he's left as a solo we saw this |
| 3401s | time and time again throughout pretty |
| 3403s | much every single fncs we've ever seen |
| 3405s | Meo in throw back to when it was like |
| 3407s | him and Booga they were just trading you |
| 3409s | know solo clutches back to solo clutches |
| 3411s | just such a good |
| 3413s | Duo that's right now we turn attention |
| 3415s | to the standing so just a reminder |
| 3417s | remember we have a bunch of lobbies all |
| 3419s | going on at the same time so if you're |
| 3420s | looking up there you're like wait a |
| 3421s | minute we just watched one game why is |
| 3423s | there four Victory Roy remember there's |
| 3424s | separate lobbies all happening at the |
| 3426s | same time so zuk's and Usain bolts over |
| 3429s | there they got themselves Victory on KY |
| 3430s | R Marine crackland Zone as well so uh |
| 3434s | again we're trying to just put on the |
| 3436s | best performance we can after the first |
| 3437s | two weeks then we're going to look at |
| 3438s | the series Point leaderboard and say hey |
| 3440s | which are the best players now you're |
| 3442s | playing for the grand finals so after |
| 3444s | game number one especially to see a |
| 3446s | couple names in there I saw in seventh |
| 3447s | place uh Seventh Place rather clicks and |
| 3449s | epic whale I do I'm very excited to see |
| 3452s | they've been taking it very seriously |
| 3454s | but guess what it's I'm getting worded |
| 3456s | we're going right into the action we |
| 3457s | have more games more action so casters |
| 3460s | over to |
| 3460s | you thank you so very much Zeke that's |
| 3463s | right there is so much action here and |
| 3465s | the way the qualifiers are going to |
| 3466s | shape up is that we are going to |
| 3468s | continue to drop right into the rounds |
| 3471s | in the middle of the Heats here as |
| 3473s | everything is playing out Larson indeed |
| 3475s | already positioning up and mind you keep |
| 3478s | in mind this game is very much underway |
| 3481s | take a look at the Zone here it's half |
| 3483s | and half out right we we cut all the |
| 3485s | beginning Fat Taco we're getting |
| 3487s | straight into the meat yeah and for Dej |
| 3489s | Larson it almost seems like they're |
| 3491s | playing bouncers essentially to some of |
| 3493s | these other teams that are trying to |
| 3495s | enter on the south edge of this Zone but |
| 3499s | DJ Lon expect that they've got to be |
| 3501s | good on their search damage considering |
| 3503s | that they're not opening up any of their |
| 3504s | wall are not looking to try and create |
| 3506s | any edits to look for any sort of Peaks |
| 3509s | probably also not trying to risk eating |
| 3512s | a sniper shot in return we all know how |
| 3515s | rapidly that can go downhill if you are |
| 3517s | tagged and then a team will immediately |
| 3519s | just try to key at you if they see any |
| 3522s | sort of damage that's cracking those |
| 3524s | Shields yeah 100% can they find a shield |
| 3528s | opener can he find an opportunity to get |
| 3530s | on in there that's what professional |
| 3532s | players will do they'll take advantage |
| 3534s | of an inch turn it into a mile for Mason |
| 3537s | npen they're already on the move here |
| 3538s | grapple hooks being utilized reciprocal |
| 3541s | though playing with Crim this a new Doo |
| 3543s | okay expect reciprocal to mix it up he |
| 3545s | was one of the few that actually stood |
| 3547s | True to this Duo for several seasons but |
| 3550s | now I'm a little different right now ooh |
| 3553s | big tag though there Taco okay he's |
| 3555s | going to be happy with that damage yeah |
| 3557s | it doesn't even bother seeing if he can |
| 3559s | immediately follow it up it just seems |
| 3562s | as though the the focus again is just |
| 3564s | maintaining |
| 3565s | a steady |
| 3566s | tricklin of surge damage so you don't |
| 3569s | have to worry about being under the |
| 3570s | damage threshold should it |
| 3572s | apply but move into a slightly different |
| 3576s | section of rebels Roost here we've got |
| 3579s | jayv and |
| 3581s | baloney boxed up decent resources no |
| 3586s | white heals at least on jva but hard to |
| 3589s | say whether or not baloney might be |
| 3590s | holding on to the med kits as we so |
| 3592s | often see Duos choosing to split but |
| 3595s | whatever resources they might have |
| 3596s | available to |
| 3598s | them but it's going to be a positional |
| 3601s | move instead for Vi |
| 3603s | Maloney still keeping in mind that |
| 3606s | they're bound to have some pressure |
| 3607s | coming up behind them I think that's why |
| 3609s | they're trying to get the move on now |
| 3611s | with these grapple blades they |
| 3613s | know moving towards this hill might give |
| 3616s | them a good orientation of where the |
| 3618s | rest of this Lobby is starting to |
| 3620s | collapse into the zone at but cash and |
| 3624s | alash seems as though they found |
| 3628s | MP might be looking to aggress but it's |
| 3632s | hard to work from the bottom up I |
| 3634s | respect |
| 3635s | it look at this Zone though F this is |
| 3639s | really really looking bad if you're on |
| 3642s | this uh this western side which is |
| 3644s | everyone in the lobby at the moment no |
| 3646s | one has decided to say oh yeah let me |
| 3648s | get a little more comfortable let me use |
| 3649s | this grapple blade to get a little |
| 3650s | distance now everyone's comfortable |
| 3652s | sitting on top of one another inside of |
| 3654s | this Lobby |
| 3655s | as he starts to scope out you can see |
| 3658s | running lists of players names a lot of |
| 3661s | uh uh names that I don't necessarily |
| 3663s | recognize but that's a good thing this |
| 3664s | is their opportunities Now tricks here |
| 3668s | trying to see what he can make happen |
| 3669s | meanwhile he's got Dylan pushing up on |
| 3671s | his side though big tags coming in this |
| 3673s | is a Duo pushing with confidence right |
| 3675s | now see whats can do defensive tag comes |
| 3677s | in doesn't quite hit it the second one |
| 3679s | is good and another team shoots in loses |
| 3682s | teammate picking is down now for S and |
| 3686s | Dylan they already have two El they |
| 3688s | might be able to reap the rewards the |
| 3690s | knock body here oh it all makes sense |
| 3692s | they were well below the surge it's |
| 3695s | going to force their hand |
| 3697s | here oh they left the body getting |
| 3700s | greedy for the loot instead of going for |
| 3702s | the tags that might be a fatal error |
| 3706s | here right now for Sam's Dylan expending |
| 3711s | a little bit of that flber fizz just to |
| 3712s | see if they can buy themselves some time |
| 3716s | but they need what two three good tags |
| 3720s | and they're in business but Sam's just |
| 3723s | barely any ammo to work with on that |
| 3725s | Striker AR and it's not looking much |
| 3728s | better on the frenzy Auto |
| 3730s | either still 210 below Sams and Dylan |
| 3735s | both know that they are essentially |
| 3736s | working against the surge clock here |
| 3739s | because that Gap is only |
| 3742s | growing they're going to have to create |
| 3743s | their own opportunity they want to find |
| 3745s | themselves sticking this one out and not |
| 3747s | falling victims to The Surge tag damage |
| 3750s | now it's going to be Sams and Dylan |
| 3752s | trying to see if they can find another |
| 3754s | section of the map another section of |
| 3756s | the lobby to potentially try and find a |
| 3758s | little bit more of those tags in but |
| 3762s | Dylan already knocked likely due to the |
| 3765s | fact that just struggling there for the |
| 3767s | longest |
| 3769s | time though on the other end of that |
| 3772s | he's not struggling in the slightest |
| 3775s | love it every time that sniper connects |
| 3779s | yeah even with the sniper f it does not |
| 3780s | matter you give it to Pro Player he's |
| 3782s | going to make it it's going to make it |
| 3783s | work the muscle memory kicks in the |
| 3786s | shots start to connect they make it look |
| 3789s | easy crims is down so greeting for the |
| 3792s | loot there did backfire and it seems |
| 3794s | like reciprocal didn't grab much of it |
| 3796s | like at least as far as the am the |
| 3798s | ammunition is concerned cuz he's in a |
| 3799s | pretty tight just to go for heals here |
| 3801s | so trying to give himself a condition to |
| 3803s | play for placement |
| 3805s | what he's going to opt into meanwhile |
| 3807s | sticks on hype here pretty solid |
| 3810s | alongside |
| 3812s | 411 four floppers though and three |
| 3815s | medkits that's that's definitely a |
| 3817s | pretty good spot to be in as a solo with |
| 3820s | heals but if anybody gets that |
| 3822s | elimination onto reciprocal they'll |
| 3823s | probably be happy with the loot that he |
| 3826s | might |
| 3827s | drop depending on how those floppers |
| 3829s | actually work but Mason and Pen just |
| 3833s | trying to do what they can |
| 3835s | to hold their current |
| 3838s | layer not necessarily full height just |
| 3841s | yet but seems as though they are on that |
| 3845s | secondary height |
| 3846s | layer Mason anden trying to do what they |
| 3850s | can to chop out the team on height vka |
| 3853s | and sigma will be forced to drop |
| 3855s | momentarily but it's not a full chop |
| 3858s | it's more so Sigma looking to see if he |
| 3859s | can apply any sort of pressure and empen |
| 3861s | actually going to have to pull back |
| 3863s | needs an opportunity to try |
| 3865s | and get some heals |
| 3867s | going me will buy in time for now swap |
| 3870s | off the |
| 3871s | medallions J can get some of that |
| 3874s | passive Shield regen yeah you can see |
| 3876s | the regen kicking in here as they're on |
| 3878s | the rotate right now trusting Mason to |
| 3879s | lead the rotate meanwhile Victor |
| 3882s | blizzard trying to play their best as |
| 3884s | well three eliminations here placement |
| 3886s | points are just around the corner they |
| 3888s | can stay |
| 3889s | in respectable team in front of them |
| 3892s | call Genesis there and |
| 3893s | remix have to pick and choose their |
| 3895s | battle very wisely here they don't |
| 3897s | actually even need to force it right now |
| 3899s | but they are seemingly pushing the |
| 3901s | boundaries here trying to really squeeze |
| 3904s | the lemon |
| 3905s | here with in Dino Antics pretty good as |
| 3910s | well he's on the move around the side |
| 3911s | edges here down another layer so down |
| 3913s | the low ground they |
| 3916s | go but even with them being in this low |
| 3919s | ground MDF they're certainly not the |
| 3921s | only team that's being forced in to the |
| 3924s | low ground ECT and Y they've definitely |
| 3928s | got a decent amount of |
| 3930s | builds but nothing as far as Shields is |
| 3933s | concerned only white heals available |
| 3934s | right now for Ecto doesn't really seem |
| 3936s | like he has an opportunity to pop |
| 3937s | anytime soon either but liquid big |
| 3940s | eliminations onto de and salt lover |
| 3944s | doesn't look like he was able to collect |
| 3946s | any sort of refresh though so |
| 3947s | unfortunately for him only one build and |
| 3950s | a dream to work through right now and |
| 3952s | High Ground clear as Dave vortex Teek |
| 3954s | crew they're just going to chill up |
| 3956s | there while the low ground going to be |
| 3958s | fighting for their lives right now just |
| 3960s | outside the roof here let's see ity do |
| 3963s | on the move right now another solo so |
| 3965s | these are all solos liquid's going to |
| 3966s | pick up another elimination though this |
| 3968s | is on to for 11 from team |
| 3971s | wtj that's going to bring him on up to |
| 3973s | six elim he needs to PA down though find |
| 3975s | a chance but he doesn't have mats much |
| 3978s | as he wants to drink this big pot here |
| 3980s | he just doesn't have room for it instead |
| 3981s | he's going to get crushed a huge shot |
| 3984s | from Up |
| 3986s | above and now we jump over to Mason |
| 3988s | Mason and Pen like we said that team's |
| 3990s | so high up they don't even have an angle |
| 3992s | down on what's Happening Here Mason out |
| 3994s | of material now Ed Back Against The Wall |
| 3996s | here they try to fight with everything |
| 3998s | they got Mason gets himself behind the |
| 4000s | team misses the first shot and just like |
| 4002s | that Victor turns and burns that's going |
| 4004s | to bring him on to seven elim there but |
| 4006s | Victor still took a massive shot from |
| 4010s | Mason bound to pose some issues here for |
| 4013s | him as he will find himself getting |
| 4016s | knocked now it's Whopper it's a quador |
| 4019s | who're going to drop to the low ground |
| 4020s | see if they can find the last couple of |
| 4023s | players that are still left standing in |
| 4025s | this Lobby they don't have any white |
| 4026s | heels they're just trying to run around |
| 4028s | the map as desperately as possible but |
| 4030s | it's blizzard with four medkits make it |
| 4033s | three sigma only two medkits but as long |
| 4036s | as storm sickness doesn't apply here for |
| 4038s | blizzard you have to imagine that he'd |
| 4040s | have the upper hand but there's other |
| 4042s | players in the mix here and they might |
| 4045s | just have a decision or play at hand |
| 4047s | here oh kuanga that's very nice but Med |
| 4050s | kit still on Ian as well I'm going to |
| 4053s | think it's going to come down to whether |
| 4054s | or not kuanga can actually find |
| 4055s | elimination here if he can find Blizzard |
| 4057s | or Ian he might just have a chance but |
| 4060s | blizzard survives just a little bit |
| 4062s | longer it's going to be enough for him |
| 4063s | to go ahead and out survive all of the |
| 4065s | opponents who tried to sit there and |
| 4067s | play for the heal off that wind |
| 4068s | condition slowly but surely going in his |
| 4071s | favor look at that it just shows you |
| 4073s | even if you have high ground doesn't |
| 4074s | mean anything if you don't fight for |
| 4076s | taco definitely very reminiscent right |
| 4079s | now though of what we saw in EU earlier |
| 4081s | today MDF because these players are not |
| 4084s | messing around as far as holding on to |
| 4086s | those white heel resources are concerned |
| 4088s | I mean we saw blizzard four medkits is |
| 4091s | usually going to be enough but the fact |
| 4093s | that he was even that close monster it |
| 4096s | kind of tells you that there might need |
| 4099s | to be more pressure being applied from |
| 4101s | the teams that are on height because if |
| 4103s | you leave these players of their own |
| 4105s | devices you never know who's going to be |
| 4106s | sitting on a whole Factory of sustain |
| 4109s | yeah and Pen had the right idea they |
| 4111s | were trying to fight for it |
| 4112s | unfortunately didn't quite hit the shots |
| 4114s | especially when we saw Mason jump down |
| 4115s | onto Victor it just missed that clean |
| 4118s | Miss was the problem you can see from |
| 4119s | Victor's perspective he didn't miss a |
| 4121s | single beat he hits every shot that |
| 4123s | matters and that's what put them at |
| 4125s | least in a position to try and take this |
| 4126s | all away but when you're on High Ground |
| 4128s | like that and you have all that Runway |
| 4129s | you have to use your ammunition |
| 4132s | otherwise you can see there players like |
| 4133s | bliz are going to walk away with it so |
| 4135s | excellent game excellent showcase here |
| 4137s | but there is still more action |
| 4140s | Zeke there is Monster there is I'm |
| 4143s | telling you this fastpaced like Lobby |
| 4146s | format I'm in love with man it's so fast |
| 4148s | you just hop in there's action and you |
| 4151s | know when we hop in we're just in the |
| 4152s | back going like what's happening why do |
| 4154s | they have no bullets wait what's where |
| 4155s | are they shooting what's going on like |
| 4156s | there is kind of that like you have to |
| 4158s | orient yourself right and and obviously |
| 4160s | for these players they've already had |
| 4161s | this whole time to build up and get to |
| 4163s | this point but for us we're tuning in |
| 4164s | right at the best part of that game it |
| 4167s | did not disappoint what did you guys |
| 4168s | enjoy about that last game listen it was |
| 4170s | cool to see npen and Mason up there |
| 4172s | right they were second high they ended |
| 4173s | up running out of mats didn't use their |
| 4175s | remaining mats to go ahead and go for a |
| 4177s | refresh but I just want to give a quick |
| 4179s | shout out to n he's doing some like |
| 4181s | crazy subathon right now he's on like |
| 4183s | day like 59 and he's out here still |
| 4185s | competing in fncs lobby so you love to |
| 4188s | see |
| 4189s | that my favorite part was the anxiety |
| 4192s | that this game gave me I just didn't |
| 4194s | really know what was happening when we |
| 4195s | jumped into it but then I was able to |
| 4197s | follow blizzard and Victor who had an |
| 4198s | incredible run right there not just |
| 4200s | showing obviously you know the heel off |
| 4201s | meta is a bit more of a passive play |
| 4203s | style in the end game but they showcased |
| 4205s | that it wasn't just this heal off meta |
| 4207s | that they were F focusing on they also |
| 4209s | got seven eliminations as well as the |
| 4211s | victory Royale so I'm excited to see how |
| 4213s | this play how this Duo which we haven't |
| 4215s | seen too much of them in the past is |
| 4217s | going to be performing throughout the |
| 4218s | rest of the day yeah absolutely and and |
| 4220s | the casters kind of talked about this |
| 4222s | this heel off right I feel like this |
| 4223s | Lobby got to be a little more proactive |
| 4225s | right you know these medkits are a thing |
| 4227s | you know people are going to try and go |
| 4228s | for those heal offs you have to try and |
| 4230s | combat that now how you want to do that |
| 4232s | hey you guys are the pros y'all figure |
| 4233s | that out I'm just trying to give a |
| 4234s | little bit of advice let's take a look |
| 4235s | at the standings though I'm curious to |
| 4236s | see how things are going if you're just |
| 4238s | tuning in what's up this is the fncs |
| 4240s | we've got five lobbies all going on at |
| 4242s | the same time so if you're like wait a |
| 4243s | minute how is there five Victory out |
| 4245s | more than five on that first page it's |
| 4247s | just we've got a bunch of lobbies all |
| 4248s | happening but I wanted to break down |
| 4250s | this kind of top 10 start here uh right |
| 4253s | through the top Huga and aiv just |
| 4255s | sitting there very comfortably 87 points |
| 4258s | now they there is quite a bit of time |
| 4261s | left right Vivid but even if we just |
| 4263s | look at this top 10 list of names I'm |
| 4265s | very excited to see how like the falling |
| 4267s | games will kind of play out yeah you |
| 4269s | know we're getting back into the swing |
| 4270s | of things fncs why right we got to can't |
| 4272s | forget about Y amzo and Rise sticking |
| 4274s | together it's good to see them have a |
| 4276s | very good game number one and Hey listen |
| 4278s | that good game out of blizzard right |
| 4279s | there clutching up with the medkit puts |
| 4281s | them into third place which we love to |
| 4284s | see and Kelly look another Duo very very |
| 4286s | familiar Muzz and paper oh we got Muzz |
| 4290s | and paper we got Duke and threats Peter |
| 4292s | bot and poo we were talking about but I |
| 4293s | do want to talk about agers and Canada |
| 4295s | we got to see an awesome video of Canada |
| 4297s | right before the show started but they |
| 4299s | are the highest point team right now |
| 4300s | without having a victory Royale and it's |
| 4303s | kind of crazy when you look at it they |
| 4304s | have 16 eliminations right now and even |
| 4308s | with a Duo that has just four |
| 4309s | eliminations and one Victory Royale they |
| 4312s | have more points than them so so I think |
| 4314s | that this is going to be a very |
| 4316s | placement heavy tournament today |
| 4318s | compared to elimination heavy games that |
| 4319s | we've seen before yeah absolutely and |
| 4321s | guess what the bus is ready we're ready |
| 4323s | we're going right back in the action |
| 4325s | take two this time with Acorn and |
| 4331s | Cole that's right the action does not |
| 4334s | stop Acorn and cold are in the mix of it |
| 4335s | right here and they have already picked |
| 4338s | up an elimination as the third party |
| 4340s | start to jump in and put their influence |
| 4341s | into the mix but Eon has to pause down |
| 4343s | it's up to cold hands here take a look |
| 4345s | at the elimination count for this Duo |
| 4348s | here already at seven what a monstrous |
| 4352s | game are we jumping into here this Lobby |
| 4354s | thinning out pretty quickly this is |
| 4357s | looking like Acorn and cold saying to |
| 4360s | themselves hey our our first match or |
| 4363s | two did not go the way that we wanted it |
| 4366s | and now they are just on demon time |
| 4368s | because cold with six eims and we're |
| 4372s | only in zone six so far thef absolutely |
| 4375s | disgusting but also kind of expected |
| 4378s | because Cole is just him sometimes he |
| 4382s | will full jump into a box and just walk |
| 4385s | out Victorious It's almost like he just |
| 4387s | never misses and that is certainly a Duo |
| 4391s | that I think is 100% trying to aim for a |
| 4395s | Victor Royale this match definitely put |
| 4398s | a stamp on it earn the respect of the |
| 4401s | lobby right remember yeah sure everyone |
| 4403s | is landing wherever they want it's a |
| 4405s | little bit of a you know Wild Wild West |
| 4407s | type of situation right here anything |
| 4409s | goes however once we start jumping into |
| 4411s | later stages your performance here is |
| 4413s | going to matter right when you start |
| 4415s | determining hey this is a set Lobby now |
| 4417s | I want to have this piece of land this |
| 4420s | little bit of real estate this Medallion |
| 4421s | drop maybe right it's going to matter |
| 4424s | players are going to look at your |
| 4425s | previous performances and then have to |
| 4427s | make a decision do we really want to |
| 4429s | face that duo yeah and again when it |
| 4431s | comes to Acorn and cold they first two |
| 4434s | game performances so far was a 35th and |
| 4436s | a 28th Place so I think that's why we're |
| 4439s | seeing Acorn and cold really hit the |
| 4441s | turbo on this one trying to play catch |
| 4442s | up and points with some of those big |
| 4444s | eims and if if they wind up just keying |
| 4446s | the entire Lobby that they're in Monster |
| 4449s | I almost say that would be super |
| 4452s | detrimental for everybody else involved |
| 4454s | because that's just so much pressure to |
| 4456s | be applying this early |
| 4459s | on but we'll have to check in with them |
| 4462s | a little bit later on see how they're |
| 4463s | fairing right now it's all about death |
| 4465s | and |
| 4468s | polarized and polarized does not like |
| 4472s | his new |
| 4473s | neighbor got to worry about Raiden |
| 4476s | making the |
| 4478s | approach from his west side |
| 4481s | but polarized he's not letting up |
| 4484s | anytime soon on Raiden's walls and that |
| 4487s | Thunder burs SMG definitely excellent as |
| 4490s | far as taking out some of these builds |
| 4492s | are concerned just applying good |
| 4493s | pressure just consistent pressure and |
| 4496s | Raiden clinging to his last breath here |
| 4499s | just seems to have drawn the attention |
| 4501s | of everyone that he's a solo and a swarm |
| 4504s | of Duos it's going to be death and |
| 4506s | polarized that make use of that |
| 4509s | elimination that somebody else actually |
| 4511s | confirmed onto Raiden but it doesn't |
| 4513s | matter as long as you're able to collect |
| 4514s | the resources yeah and polarizing dep I |
| 4517s | mean listen this is a team that I feel |
| 4519s | really good about this season um SVG |
| 4521s | laughed at me when I was you know kind |
| 4523s | of hyping them up I was like look |
| 4524s | polariz has been on this this uptick |
| 4526s | dude and he's got death feeling inspired |
| 4527s | to put in the work right now making |
| 4529s | content on top of just grinding for comp |
| 4531s | and I think that's the difference we |
| 4532s | haven't seen that level of inspiration |
| 4534s | come out I think of death in a long |
| 4537s | time we jump in with chimp here chimp |
| 4539s | lands himself inside this Lobby we see |
| 4541s | him essentially in that first showcase |
| 4544s | they did pretty well pushing their way |
| 4546s | towards the end game this game pacing |
| 4548s | out to be a little bit better already at |
| 4550s | two ears so far let's take a look back |
| 4553s | back at how they earn them pushes on in |
| 4556s | takes all the real estate they need lot |
| 4559s | of distraction here and the shots come |
| 4561s | in in the process they pick up two for |
| 4563s | their troubles so that's not bad by any |
| 4564s | means but look at this Taco cold jumping |
| 4566s | in another player boxed up yeah it's |
| 4570s | just another box fight for Cole to win I |
| 4573s | don't even know if I can necessarily |
| 4574s | qualify that as a box fight even it's |
| 4576s | more like just an immediate elimination |
| 4580s | there for cold as he's now up to eight a |
| 4583s | corn still representing he's got the |
| 4585s | moral support there for cold you just |
| 4587s | know that aorn's got the the igl calls |
| 4589s | like hey cold there's another box |
| 4591s | another guy surely you can take care of |
| 4595s | that all the confidence in the world |
| 4599s | Acorn and cold here not even building |
| 4601s | High just enough to put some pressure on |
| 4604s | and then W key the player that was |
| 4605s | trying to Grapple blade off to the side |
| 4607s | there and honestly they might be the |
| 4609s | only team yes I was right they are the |
| 4611s | only team on the back of this hill here |
| 4613s | on the back of the lob there's no one no |
| 4615s | one here to distract them from doing the |
| 4618s | work that they need to do full keying |
| 4620s | the lobby |
| 4622s | exactly and now look fresh Duo here |
| 4626s | fresh boxes what do you think he's going |
| 4628s | to |
| 4628s | do |
| 4630s | immediately run up on them it's it's |
| 4633s | been a 100% success strategy for this |
| 4635s | team so far here in their third |
| 4639s | match is now cold |
| 4642s | Acorn I I don't call this hesitation |
| 4645s | this is more so cold and aorn I think |
| 4647s | just trying to make a smart approach |
| 4648s | they know that they can probably key |
| 4650s | this other Duo right next to them |
| 4651s | instead they're going to take a moment |
| 4653s | to kind of scope out everyone else they |
| 4656s | starting to make their way towards them |
| 4657s | they've got the point of elevation here |
| 4659s | and that's what matters most just |
| 4661s | outside of rebels |
| 4665s | Roost near lavish FLIR you can just see |
| 4668s | the white HP being ripped apart here |
| 4672s | it's cold now finds an elimination from |
| 4675s | Deep onto creep never set a |
| 4678s | chance 12 elims already in toe for cold |
| 4682s | and acorn and they're not letting up |
| 4683s | anytime soon when we say full keying we |
| 4685s | meant it because cold and acorn are just |
| 4688s | collecting bodies right now this is |
| 4690s | crazy 12 elim right now and I must say |
| 4692s | I'd be lying if I say I wasn't concerned |
| 4694s | at how they're just peeking right now on |
| 4695s | the sniper meta but Cole does not care |
| 4698s | intuition is telling him he has the |
| 4700s | runway to do it and he has taken |
| 4702s | advantage meanwhile acorn solidifying |
| 4704s | the fort here so really leaving the |
| 4705s | eliminations to cold while Acorn is just |
| 4708s | making sure they're set up to win this |
| 4710s | game and and all the metal comes out all |
| 4714s | of the metal comes out to Super solidify |
| 4717s | the base gives them the the the ramp the |
| 4719s | tarp there look at that grapples his way |
| 4721s | back yeah positioning is going to be key |
| 4723s | here this is just an excellent spot to |
| 4725s | be in right |
| 4727s | now and directly underneath where we saw |
| 4730s | Acorn placing all those height layer |
| 4733s | metal builds underneath those cones it's |
| 4735s | going to be a death and polarized but |
| 4739s | even if they're playing from the low |
| 4740s | ground definitely a team that can handle |
| 4743s | a little bit of congestive pressure but |
| 4745s | TK and |
| 4747s | bacon too much pressure don't want to |
| 4749s | find themselves getting sandwiched in |
| 4752s | some of these low layers cber Fizz going |
| 4755s | to help them with trying to get a |
| 4757s | rotation into the next Zone A lot of |
| 4761s | these teams though definitely |
| 4763s | nobody looking to claim center Zone just |
| 4765s | yet monster right now it's just about |
| 4767s | whether or not they can even get a good |
| 4769s | position in the first place because |
| 4772s | everyone just kind of stuck on top of |
| 4773s | each other that's right but you know |
| 4776s | what Ain and Cole did everyone a favor |
| 4777s | right with the amount of eliminations |
| 4779s | they picked up already performance must |
| 4780s | be feeling pretty smooth right now so |
| 4782s | it's going to come down to who is going |
| 4784s | to just outperform |
| 4785s | outshine the best of the best in this |
| 4788s | Lobby right here for chaos gaming and |
| 4790s | Company it's time for them to start |
| 4791s | finding eliminations they're going to |
| 4792s | need to go and turn it on there it is |
| 4795s | they find the tags they need that buys |
| 4796s | them the window but it also turns off |
| 4798s | The Surge so they don't have to worry |
| 4800s | about that anymore Acorn and cold |
| 4803s | interesting enough oped to uh play a |
| 4805s | little lower than I thought they would |
| 4806s | have would have liked to so that's going |
| 4808s | to give people an opportunity to fight |
| 4810s | for their positioning up top you can see |
| 4813s | the Fizz and and how it gives you that |
| 4816s | extra bit of Mobility there does open |
| 4819s | you up to some some angles right if you |
| 4822s | will not sure though that angles are |
| 4824s | what Jackson's looking for it seems as |
| 4826s | the survival is the only thing really on |
| 4829s | his mind is that was a potential |
| 4832s | successful revive but unfortunately not |
| 4835s | enough momentum to actually keep pushing |
| 4837s | forward couldn't get that Med kit off in |
| 4839s | time a little bit tragic there but chimp |
| 4843s | and scissor we tapped in with them just |
| 4846s | in the last round MDF this is again one |
| 4849s | of those teams you were kind of calling |
| 4851s | like hey chimp definitely somebody look |
| 4853s | out for and a team with five elims it |
| 4856s | seems as though this has been a pretty |
| 4857s | key heavy Lobby yeah I'm a I'm a huge |
| 4860s | huge fan of chimp I've seen what he's |
| 4862s | capable of in person on finals right |
| 4865s | there was a point in time where he was |
| 4867s | the new kid on the Block but he's gone |
| 4869s | you know through those hurdles he's been |
| 4870s | in these big dog lobbies you know in in |
| 4873s | the past and this is really this is |
| 4875s | really where he comes from he comes from |
| 4876s | these lobbies that have decent players |
| 4878s | and open settings and he's got to fight |
| 4880s | for it and so far they're putting up the |
| 4882s | numbers they're putting up exactly what |
| 4883s | we expected of a team like like chimp |
| 4885s | now right he's going to soon be the's |
| 4888s | he's the next wave of you know |
| 4890s | experienced player bacon and TK are on |
| 4892s | the heals here too though so this is |
| 4894s | also a team that has very much uh of |
| 4897s | many fncs under the belt take a look at |
| 4899s | The High Ground spin tries to come up |
| 4901s | not going to be successful as Cole |
| 4902s | claims another one here and then another |
| 4905s | one as he follows up into the Bots onto |
| 4908s | death here and polarized I was trying to |
| 4910s | gas him up I was trying to give him the |
| 4912s | juice but no is just |
| 4915s | different 17 eliminations you cannot be |
| 4919s | serious right now Acorn still holding |
| 4921s | The High Ground cold he's just trying to |
| 4924s | add a couple more to the tally here as |
| 4927s | chimp finds his fourth |
| 4930s | elimination but chimp and scissor |
| 4933s | they're stuck up against the likes of |
| 4934s | cold and acorn who have just been |
| 4937s | absolutely tearing through decimating |
| 4940s | the entirety of this Lobby so far cold |
| 4943s | waiting for the prime opportunity to |
| 4945s | strike drops once he recognizes the |
| 4946s | split there from chimp chimp doesn't |
| 4947s | have any sort of heals for the time |
| 4949s | being but it's going to be tra out |
| 4951s | knocks here down to Acorn up above still |
| 4956s | has two medkits in tow Z as scissor so |
| 4960s | curious to see who actually manages to |
| 4962s | hold out longer here yeah scissors did |
| 4965s | have an extra one there but I do believe |
| 4967s | that Acorn might have timed it just a |
| 4968s | little bit better and look at this he |
| 4970s | finds a nice little loot pile here I |
| 4972s | think that was a Flopper there but he |
| 4974s | missed the chance to pick it up now it's |
| 4976s | going to just come down to whether or |
| 4977s | not he can play these Med kits out all |
| 4978s | the way he finds another one there the |
| 4979s | shots come in from the side and the zone |
| 4982s | does the rest Acorn holds on by the skin |
| 4986s | of his teeth there but they do it in |
| 4988s | fashion 18 eliminations there Taco just |
| 4992s | a spectacle you need a big game you put |
| 4995s | on a big game and now they're back in |
| 4996s | the race yeah that was definitely a huge |
| 5000s | third times the charm essentially is |
| 5002s | what I'm engaging from Acorn and cold |
| 5004s | just keying the entirety of that Lobby |
| 5007s | it was absolutely disgusting watching |
| 5009s | how many eliminations they were actually |
| 5010s | able to acrew there in the end but cold |
| 5013s | in particular he just looked like he was |
| 5016s | a complete monster of this lobby but I |
| 5019s | love that play at the end there from Sor |
| 5021s | because he's just kind of taking matters |
| 5023s | into his own hands I mean we talked |
| 5024s | about how the last match that we saw |
| 5026s | it's just hey not enough pressure being |
| 5027s | applied kind of letting this heal off go |
| 5029s | through and acorn nearly lost that last |
| 5033s | engagement if it had have been just a |
| 5036s | quick Reflex on the wall toss up and in |
| 5039s | that play right there yeah cold you know |
| 5042s | got tagged hard enough for the zone to |
| 5043s | take him down but he just completely |
| 5046s | completely outplayed chimp he edited the |
| 5049s | wall but he didn't peek it he was so |
| 5051s | fast he edited the other wall and got |
| 5053s | the tag first in the exchange there just |
| 5056s | a wonderful showcase wonderful play |
| 5058s | there that's what it's all about |
| 5061s | here yeah and |
| 5063s | again man man uh so that's what that |
| 5068s | looks like you know you ever like go |
| 5069s | into a game and you think how do I how |
| 5071s | why does it feel like I'm not playing |
| 5072s | the game like why does it feel like |
| 5074s | you're telling me what I'm allowed to do |
| 5075s | and what I can't and can't do and you |
| 5076s | have all the the stuff but I feel like |
| 5078s | I'm going to win this right no wow Acorn |
| 5081s | and cold they just took over they just |
| 5083s | said hey you guys are not allowed to |
| 5085s | play the game we've spun the web you |
| 5087s | fallen in the Trap 18 eliminations |
| 5090s | that's just the that's the highest |
| 5091s | number we've seen today but but VI that |
| 5094s | number could go much higher yeah I mean |
| 5096s | Hey listen we love a classic Acorn and |
| 5099s | cold type game and this was just one of |
| 5101s | those things where Acorn and coal they |
| 5102s | were able to go ahead and take the high |
| 5104s | ground but they weren't content with |
| 5105s | just leaving both of them up there kind |
| 5107s | of chilling and kind of like riding the |
| 5109s | game out letting it go to heal up no |
| 5111s | Acorn played like three four layers |
| 5113s | above cold the whole time cold was wall |
| 5115s | toall with everybody he possibly could |
| 5117s | be with and the elims just kept coming |
| 5120s | in and I was looking I was like who in |
| 5122s | the world let cold get double mythics |
| 5124s | because we know exactly what he's |
| 5126s | capable of when that happens yeah that |
| 5129s | Nisha Striker AR from fencing Fields |
| 5132s | just does so much damage 234 DPS and in |
| 5136s | the hands of someone like C you can see |
| 5139s | just how devastating it is during that |
| 5141s | game I was freaking out saying are they |
| 5144s | 3,000 above storm surge I don't remember |
| 5147s | the last time I saw someone that high |
| 5150s | but of course when you're Acorn and cold |
| 5151s | and you already have eight eliminations |
| 5153s | where we're not even at the halfway |
| 5154s | point of the game I guess you can't |
| 5156s | expect any less but not just the |
| 5159s | aggression we saw from them but also the |
| 5160s | Tactical play style at the very end |
| 5162s | there where Acorn and cold decided to |
| 5164s | split up seeing if cold could get a few |
| 5166s | more eliminations and then once Acorn |
| 5168s | saw oh that might not actually happen |
| 5170s | I'm going to go and find more heals and |
| 5171s | they got the victory Royale because of |
| 5174s | that just disgusting like I I I just |
| 5177s | don't even like this this is to them |
| 5180s | this feels like this is just a normal |
| 5181s | Lobby you know just hopping in getting |
| 5183s | warmed up for the fncs a casual 18 |
| 5187s | elimination Victory Royale no big deal |
| 5190s | and again this is just because of this |
| 5192s | format right with the five lobbies |
| 5195s | things just can get extremely chaotic |
| 5198s | but for acorn and cold they they've kind |
| 5200s | of experienced this chaos right they |
| 5202s | know what to do in these situations so |
| 5204s | to them it's like oh you're going to let |
| 5206s | us dictate Tempo bet we'll just go on to |
| 5208s | win a game no problem yeah they also |
| 5210s | used to like just simply cold one one V2 |
| 5213s | in polarized and death right there like |
| 5215s | are we going to go ahead and mention |
| 5216s | that real quick cuz that is no easy fee |
| 5219s | love to see that though but Zeke listen |
| 5221s | we got the leaderboard to check out |
| 5223s | that's right MZ and paper in that number |
| 5225s | one spot currently now of course we |
| 5227s | haven't had a time to to check in with |
| 5229s | them as far as the games they're in but |
| 5231s | Kelly to see them at the top suddenly |
| 5233s | like this has got to be feeling so good |
| 5234s | for them wow and to have no Victory |
| 5237s | Royals but 112 placement points just |
| 5239s | shows that they are consistently making |
| 5241s | it to the end games here as well as |
| 5243s | grabbing a few of eliminations we |
| 5244s | expected no less from Peter B poo who |
| 5246s | have 22 eliminations as well some new |
| 5249s | names coming up into the leaderboard too |
| 5252s | and a team that was once up first place |
| 5254s | a v Anda dropping down to eighth yeah |
| 5257s | there's so many things that we need to |
| 5258s | check in but but you heard the bus going |
| 5261s | into our next game and it's a du I'm |
| 5262s | very excited to see how they perform |
| 5264s | it's clicks and epic |
| 5270s | whale that's right it's the big boy |
| 5273s | clicks here man clicks hey he's he's |
| 5275s | really grown into his own you know in |
| 5277s | these competitive season after season |
| 5280s | just recently he revealed that epic wh |
| 5281s | has been one of his favorite Duos to |
| 5284s | play with and although they may not have |
| 5286s | performed exactly where they wanted to |
| 5287s | before they have seen themselves |
| 5288s | continue to grow as teammates so I think |
| 5291s | they're showing it right now look at |
| 5293s | this already at five eliminations here |
| 5295s | not too |
| 5296s | bad yeah kind of just adding on to what |
| 5299s | you were just talking about as far as |
| 5301s | clicks and epic are concerned and clicks |
| 5303s | himself even admitting that he's like |
| 5304s | hey you know we recognize the fact that |
| 5307s | good things take time essentially is |
| 5308s | what I heard him talking about on a |
| 5311s | stream during opens as we all know |
| 5313s | clicks want to stream everything |
| 5317s | possible Lov making content man I think |
| 5320s | it's awesome to see that he seems to |
| 5322s | have really found a a good sort of vibe |
| 5324s | with epic because a lot of times it can |
| 5326s | come down to just how well you're |
| 5328s | actually able to get along with your Duo |
| 5332s | and again we see clicks with four lims |
| 5335s | but the journey for us to how he got |
| 5337s | there in the first place at least from 3 |
| 5339s | to |
| 5340s | four clicks with the sniper rifle that |
| 5344s | Reaper just |
| 5346s | collecting successful |
| 5350s | eliminations yeah talking about a a big |
| 5352s | Lobby this is the who's who Canada agers |
| 5355s | are in the building right now 10 elim |
| 5358s | collectively so a monstrous game right |
| 5359s | here another team that is trying to |
| 5361s | continue to keep themselves in the |
| 5362s | conversation here kada has talked about |
| 5365s | it his goals this year are to find |
| 5367s | another |
| 5368s | fncs win under his belt he doesn't just |
| 5371s | want one he doesn't just want to be the |
| 5373s | guy that has made it to that final stage |
| 5375s | time and time again he wants more |
| 5380s | wins once you get a taste it's kind of |
| 5383s | hard to let go if you think about it as |
| 5385s | well can imagine it' only be more |
| 5388s | motivation to such strong competitors |
| 5391s | and I think when we talk about strong |
| 5393s | competitors it would be a disservice not |
| 5395s | to mention rise and yzo in that |
| 5398s | conversation yamza getting a good |
| 5401s | clipping of a |
| 5403s | there but again not looking to just rush |
| 5407s | forward even if the shields are cracked |
| 5409s | rise amzo certainly a |
| 5412s | team that can work very efficiently from |
| 5415s | a low ground position and it seems as |
| 5418s | though they are cozy enough that they |
| 5421s | just want to maintain their damage |
| 5422s | threshold but they're so far above it at |
| 5424s | this point MDF that they're definitely |
| 5427s | capable of just kind of waiting things |
| 5430s | out maybe seeing if they can push the |
| 5433s | teams that are still stuck behind them |
| 5435s | and keep them kind of On The Fringe here |
| 5438s | don't really let them have easy |
| 5439s | rotations into the safety of Zone yeah |
| 5442s | and all in all I mean they're on the |
| 5444s | outskirts right you want to wait till |
| 5445s | the Zone pools and look at that have |
| 5446s | they made a move it would have been a |
| 5447s | mistake cuz it does pull towards that |
| 5450s | Northwest side so they're going to find |
| 5452s | uh a lot of favoritism there meanwhile |
| 5454s | the teams on the other side are going to |
| 5455s | have a pretty tough time there is a huge |
| 5457s | dip followed by a one road track on into |
| 5461s | this new zone so it's going to be pretty |
| 5463s | tough if you find yourself either on the |
| 5465s | east side or the middle here as there's |
| 5467s | not going to be a clear path to success |
| 5469s | grapple blades however are going to |
| 5471s | start to come out here chance is trying |
| 5472s | to figure out what his move is going to |
| 5474s | be here he's running back and forth kind |
| 5476s | of operating between the builds of him |
| 5478s | and his his his previous teammates who's |
| 5480s | no longer in the lobby right now but |
| 5482s | yeah he's got to |
| 5484s | go and don't get me wrong I know that |
| 5486s | there's multiple lobbies running at once |
| 5488s | cuz keep in mind it is round four 250 |
| 5492s | top Duos so far duking it out in like |
| 5495s | five sever lobbies at a time essentially |
| 5497s | and I am noticing a trend though MDF |
| 5499s | with a lot of these zones pulling |
| 5501s | towards this north northwest side of the |
| 5503s | map from the matches that we've gotten a |
| 5504s | chance to True take a little PES into |
| 5508s | and it has definitely affected some of |
| 5510s | these teams as far as just trying to get |
| 5513s | an efficient rotational path because it |
| 5516s | it's just hard to work through so much |
| 5518s | water especially dealing with the |
| 5521s | bridge easy for other teams to |
| 5523s | essentially cat you off guard and you |
| 5525s | know what on that note the pressure |
| 5527s | right the pressure that starts to sit on |
| 5529s | the on the players if you didn't perform |
| 5531s | game one game two and you start to tell |
| 5533s | yourself hey look you know this is top |
| 5535s | 250 we're a top 10 Duo like let's just |
| 5538s | key let's just go fight but then you hit |
| 5541s | that brick wall you hit a tier one Duo |
| 5543s | you just never really know who you're |
| 5545s | going to go against so it it's it's |
| 5547s | pretty tough to make uh to make the |
| 5549s | right calls in these types of lobbies |
| 5550s | you have to truly commit to your |
| 5552s | decisions for clicks and epic whales so |
| 5554s | far it seems like they have uh you know |
| 5556s | hit the luck of the draw as they have |
| 5557s | six elims and they're sitting pretty |
| 5558s | comfortable but look aers and Canada |
| 5561s | trying to make a big big showing here |
| 5563s | they've already banked out they cashed |
| 5565s | out 10 elim they're feeling great about |
| 5567s | this game so far they want to win this |
| 5569s | one and if honestly if they take it we |
| 5571s | should see them up towards the top 10 |
| 5572s | top |
| 5573s | 15 and this is kind of what you would |
| 5575s | expect from the team that's trying to |
| 5577s | hold High Ground just so much pressure |
| 5579s | being applied here Canada really laying |
| 5583s | down some shots with this Striker AR and |
| 5587s | again like this approach here Kata going |
| 5589s | to go ahead T |
| 5590s | forward epic will trying to go for high |
| 5593s | ground but no kada catches them Zips |
| 5595s | right on over there and epic wh was like |
| 5597s | all right we got we got caught let's go |
| 5600s | and split the material count here might |
| 5601s | have been wor the risk but clicks also |
| 5604s | burned in the process there so good |
| 5606s | defensive plays by clicks and epic will |
| 5608s | there meanwhile Victor finds himself a |
| 5610s | knock is a solo |
| 5612s | here Caillou has to play defensively no |
| 5616s | not enough for Victor he's going to go |
| 5617s | down theone rise who's looking like a |
| 5620s | dominant position for them to be in now |
| 5623s | put on the back foot here temporarily |
| 5625s | are going to have to heal and this is |
| 5627s | also going off the elevation so this is |
| 5628s | a very tough spot to being you cannot |
| 5630s | just jump off not just yet yet might be |
| 5633s | the last play you make if you |
| 5636s | did clicks and epic almost for a second |
| 5639s | seemed like they were going to look to |
| 5640s | try and Challenge aers and Canada again |
| 5642s | but thinking differently of it clicks |
| 5645s | and epic they also are kind of in need |
| 5647s | of a refresh here at least as far as |
| 5649s | heals is concerned their builds weren't |
| 5651s | totally shambles just yet but can expect |
| 5654s | those to dwindle rather |
| 5657s | quickly as teams continue to try and |
| 5660s | Scurry around it's going to be is going |
| 5662s | to be epic one more time just trying to |
| 5665s | deal with the duo that's directly in |
| 5666s | front of them no with a nice little wrap |
| 5668s | around but yeah that's the problem he |
| 5671s | needs some sort of a refresh some sort |
| 5673s | of a knock into an elimination doesn't |
| 5675s | seem to spot out Caillou's a complete |
| 5678s | solo there instead hiding underneath |
| 5680s | this cone seeing if anybody will swing |
| 5683s | by this bush here so clicks and epic |
| 5685s | whale can look for a refresh and look |
| 5687s | they do not trust it clicks is like hey |
| 5689s | look I can play for positioning here I |
| 5690s | can play for a little bit of placement |
| 5692s | let me just hang back for a second yone |
| 5694s | Rise all that material gone now clicks |
| 5697s | for full HP into the Zone finds himself |
| 5699s | elimination there it was worth it but |
| 5701s | the zone does the rest and he falls |
| 5704s | inside the top 15 but from Top from 21st |
| 5707s | positioning to 15 and an elim is a big |
| 5711s | big jump that's a gap closer meanwhile |
| 5713s | demo be cool is still alive right now |
| 5715s | yamone rise out of material down and |
| 5718s | forced into the slow ground position |
| 5719s | Caillou is down there as well we have on |
| 5722s | him probably want to pick this elim up |
| 5724s | they know he's sitting there so now it's |
| 5726s | it's all types of risky here luckily |
| 5729s | things clear up for a second |
| 5731s | now let's see it team waiting for them |
| 5733s | Yo priz Yo finds the tag can he get |
| 5736s | another one he can just smarter |
| 5738s | positioning and sometimes you are just a |
| 5741s | little bit better and he OBO finds two |
| 5743s | for his troubles here Ry still alive and |
| 5745s | into the top 10 they go Taco just so |
| 5748s | tragic there for yamza that rise |
| 5750s | couldn't quite get close enough to |
| 5753s | provide him with some backup just so |
| 5755s | much chaos taking place in these low |
| 5757s | ground players what it's canata just |
| 5760s | fully running on the low ground might |
| 5763s | have heard about the fact that there was |
| 5765s | an 18 elimination Royale and he's still |
| 5768s | going 18 as well for Canada and Asia is |
| 5774s | tying everything |
| 5776s | up just making it look easy finding feet |
| 5780s | tagging players this guy's healing he's |
| 5783s | not looking and all of a sudden they go |
| 5785s | from around 14 eliminations jumping |
| 5788s | right on up to Tai Aon and Cold's last |
| 5791s | performance there and a big 18 is a huge |
| 5795s | swing for them we'll see how it reflects |
| 5797s | on the standings because all in all |
| 5799s | those are the kind of games that are |
| 5800s | going to net average you way up the |
| 5803s | leaderboards but you know what I'm |
| 5804s | thinking other teams are starting to |
| 5806s | recognize the tier ones are starting to |
| 5807s | recognize hey we want to stay in this |
| 5810s | running if you want to stay comfortably |
| 5812s | up towards that top 50 or so I mean we |
| 5815s | got to just play strong we gotta play |
| 5816s | aggressive like |
| 5818s | that it's just the fact that aers was |
| 5821s | looking around but I'm sure that aers |
| 5824s | and Canada weren't the only ones looking |
| 5825s | at what took place there the desk has |
| 5827s | got more in store for |
| 5830s | us agers and Canada hitting us with the |
| 5833s | dayquan giving him toes my gosh I don't |
| 5836s | even know how he saw that angle like |
| 5840s | Canada you just know you're good I don't |
| 5842s | need to tell you you're good you know |
| 5843s | that you're good but we just saw an 18 |
| 5846s | elimination Victory Royale and then they |
| 5847s | said hold on we can do the same just |
| 5851s | watch and I like too that monster called |
| 5853s | out these kind of upper Edge shalana |
| 5855s | Duos they're starting to pick up they're |
| 5856s | like okay we can just let's just run it |
| 5858s | like what what are we waiting for yeah a |
| 5861s | lot of names were actually in that Lobby |
| 5862s | right there we saw yams when rise they |
| 5864s | were kind of on the low ground clicks |
| 5866s | and epic will also on the low ground and |
| 5867s | both of those teams actually ran into a |
| 5869s | very very similar problem which was they |
| 5871s | just kind of like ran out of mats |
| 5872s | couldn't really fight any longer but |
| 5874s | canadan agers they were able to take |
| 5876s | that Victory Royale because they were |
| 5877s | just chilling up on The High Ground had |
| 5879s | plenty of mats and you know you already |
| 5881s | mentioned Zeke 18 eliminations that is a |
| 5884s | lot and you know what that means a lot |
| 5886s | of refreshes |
| 5887s | Kelly that too and that's 18 |
| 5889s | eliminations on top of the 18 that they |
| 5891s | already have so 36 total and plus that |
| 5894s | Victory Royale as well as their top |
| 5896s | seven performance that we saw earlier I |
| 5898s | cannot wait to see where they're going |
| 5900s | to be on the leaderboard but but so much |
| 5902s | is changing with this leaderboard I do |
| 5904s | want to remind everyone that if you guys |
| 5905s | look at it yourself it's going to be |
| 5907s | constantly changing but we have to look |
| 5909s | at Canada and agers absolutely |
| 5911s | dominating on The High Ground and once |
| 5914s | again 3,000 above storm surge meaning |
| 5917s | that they don't have to worry at all |
| 5919s | about any issues and didn't look like |
| 5920s | they were worrying at all Vivid yeah and |
| 5922s | listen you know kada said this little |
| 5924s | thing right he was like yeah the game's |
| 5926s | not really much about like aim or |
| 5928s | mechanics right well I don't know if |
| 5930s | you're putting up a good good argument |
| 5932s | for that right now after watching that |
| 5933s | end |
| 5934s | game it's like the the misdirect you |
| 5937s | know he's like yeah yeah no no it's not |
| 5938s | about that you should stop doing that |
| 5940s | let me keep doing |
| 5941s | that just hits every single shot |
| 5944s | possible absolutely incredible stuff and |
| 5947s | you know again we see that similar thing |
| 5949s | right to where we saw Acorn and cold |
| 5950s | somebody always kind of hangs up on The |
| 5952s | High Ground where somebody drops down |
| 5953s | and Canada right here was the one that |
| 5955s | went for the drop down and just found so |
| 5957s | many angles to get all the |
| 5959s | eliminations yeah not ending things off |
| 5962s | while he like I thought the game was |
| 5963s | already over and he says no no no let me |
| 5964s | get a few more eliminations here and I |
| 5967s | think that was a pretty smart play for |
| 5968s | kada cuz if we look at his load out |
| 5969s | right now he doesn't have any medkits he |
| 5971s | doesn't have any Fizz he doesn't have |
| 5972s | any floppers so he had to go for those |
| 5974s | eliminations instead of the heel off I'd |
| 5977s | love to see what aers actually had in |
| 5979s | his Lu out as well to see if they were |
| 5981s | potentially preparing for the heal off |
| 5983s | because that could have been something |
| 5985s | that was very detrimental to their wind |
| 5987s | condition there but clearly it wasn't |
| 5988s | that detrimental cuz they're in first |
| 5990s | place right now in our leaderboard with |
| 5992s | ritual and Reed in second of course you |
| 5995s | bring up Reed you cannot bring up Reed |
| 5997s | 151 points right behind them man let's |
| 6000s | take a look here though at our top 20 as |
| 6002s | well remember again if this is just |
| 6004s | chaotic and you're like what is going on |
| 6006s | five lobbies all happen at the same time |
| 6009s | and this is the Fallout just trying to |
| 6011s | place as high up on these standings over |
| 6013s | the next two weeks as we can thoric |
| 6016s | there paired up with Chris I like I'm |
| 6018s | interested in this see what that duo is |
| 6020s | capable of but so many other names here |
| 6023s | as well you can see aiv and bugga though |
| 6025s | they had that super strong start and the |
| 6027s | Victory Royale they're starting to kind |
| 6029s | of I don't want to say drop Pace cuz |
| 6031s | that's not what I'm trying to imply but |
| 6033s | like they're keeping up with it right |
| 6035s | yeah yeah yeah the games are going right |
| 6036s | maybe they're in an end game right now |
| 6037s | maybe they're about to shoot up 100 |
| 6040s | points right now but everybody right now |
| 6042s | just pretty much competing for series |
| 6044s | points Kelly and Hey listen we still got |
| 6046s | a lot more games to play and there's a |
| 6049s | lot of teams right now that may not be |
| 6050s | in this top 30 but you will have to be |
| 6052s | the top 250 teams to move on to the |
| 6055s | semi-finals over the accumulation of |
| 6058s | both weeks of qualifiers we have so even |
| 6061s | if they're not in the top 10 or top 30 |
| 6063s | that doesn't necessarily mean that it's |
| 6064s | going to be bad for them that's right we |
| 6066s | saw plenty more games and the bus is |
| 6068s | ready we are ready so let's just jump |
| 6070s | right back into it Acorn and cold let's |
| 6072s | see how they're |
| 6077s | doing and here we have it the next match |
| 6080s | is ready Acorn and colder on once again |
| 6083s | seems to be an aggressive type of time |
| 6086s | here they have Dorito in Belmar yir in |
| 6090s | mind but cold backside completely open |
| 6092s | to another Duo doesn't even care that du |
| 6093s | doesn't want any of the action here |
| 6095s | they're playing for a little bit of a |
| 6096s | center Zone CO's going to get punished |
| 6098s | in the process |
| 6099s | here and a bit of a scramble to 180 |
| 6102s | though to put down a player and he's got |
| 6104s | the trade it's up to AC Corner go and |
| 6105s | close the deal here it's a bit of an |
| 6108s | even exchange on both sides a Acorn |
| 6112s | loses cold in the process cold is now |
| 6115s | officially down and out acorn's just |
| 6117s | going to go for the full reset here |
| 6120s | Dorito thinking if he can play for the |
| 6121s | pickup but acor is going to be pretty |
| 6123s | quick this is his wall here that's his |
| 6125s | wall as well but he missed the shot the |
| 6127s | edit was bad too and this is dangerous |
| 6129s | dangerous territory it's crackle it's |
| 6131s | Zone who pull on up very experienced |
| 6135s | Duo crackly no stranger to competition |
| 6138s | playing a lot of zero build but people |
| 6140s | forget this is Roots here this is where |
| 6142s | he comes from this is going to surely |
| 6145s | put him back into the conversation |
| 6148s | here Zone and team I mean they do a lot |
| 6151s | of damage too's hurt |
| 6154s | Taco toito is severely hurt right now |
| 6157s | but he's not the only one Acorn being |
| 6160s | left to Faire as a solo here having |
| 6164s | watched his Duo cold just get full Elin |
| 6167s | in front of him by Dorito Dorito as well |
| 6170s | will meet his match here Zone and |
| 6173s | crackling they they weren't they didn't |
| 6175s | want a part of it initially but once |
| 6177s | they recognize some of the shots that |
| 6180s | were taking place they realized that |
| 6182s | they had such a great opportunity to not |
| 6185s | only collect some surge damage but also |
| 6188s | just get some great resources and great |
| 6189s | refreshes early on and now Acorn |
| 6193s | possibly just hoping that he can get the |
| 6195s | reboot card here for cold if he's |
| 6198s | actually able to get cold rebooted |
| 6200s | though that that could be Mass but at |
| 6201s | the same time it could lead them in a |
| 6203s | pretty tough position here as we |
| 6205s | approach the end game MDF because again |
| 6208s | they're going to have to spend time just |
| 6210s | rearming resources there for cold yeah I |
| 6212s | was going to say if there's a time to do |
| 6213s | it it's pretty much now as you can see |
| 6215s | even buan and ve are comfortable in the |
| 6217s | storm right here trying to buy |
| 6219s | themselves a little bit of time and they |
| 6221s | have options too right they have heels |
| 6223s | here they have launchpads Rifts this is |
| 6224s | so much they can work with right now |
| 6227s | look acorn in the right position at the |
| 6229s | right time to pick up his teammate in |
| 6231s | comes cold you hear the shots come out |
| 6232s | though so cold already attracting |
| 6234s | attention from the lobby but now they |
| 6238s | are below the surge so all that damage |
| 6240s | seems to have been wiped |
| 6242s | clean yes although they may have two |
| 6245s | eliminations this might still be a |
| 6247s | pretty tough spot to fight their way out |
| 6249s | of and look I I kind of get it because |
| 6252s | when you have an 18 elimination Victory |
| 6254s | Royale burner it it's hard not to want |
| 6257s | to just repeat that same key mentality |
| 6261s | but cold maybe letting a little bit of |
| 6264s | that hyperaggression get the better end |
| 6266s | of him just kind of took those box |
| 6268s | fights rather |
| 6269s | recklessly and acorn just wasn't able to |
| 6274s | assist him in the way that he would have |
| 6275s | wanted to I mean it's great that he's |
| 6276s | back up and running now but really want |
| 6279s | to check in with that duo later on to |
| 6281s | see how they fa in comparison to some of |
| 6283s | these other teams like Asian Jeff like |
| 6285s | alliver OG who are kind of just fighting |
| 6287s | their way through fencing |
| 6290s | fields |
| 6291s | crash PS in hand as well plenty of tech |
| 6293s | to play with but no AR ammunition so |
| 6296s | pretty tough spot for Jeff to be in here |
| 6297s | he's going to have to back up Oliver |
| 6299s | help Oliver heal up as well meanwhile on |
| 6301s | the other side buga and aiv come in late |
| 6303s | from the storm and get taken out by |
| 6307s | Tavern and peace and just like that they |
| 6311s | get put on ice for a second we were just |
| 6314s | talking about they were like pacing you |
| 6316s | know top 15 proba slipped down to top 16 |
| 6321s | now he going to put a little bit more |
| 6323s | pressure on them to perform their |
| 6325s | cushion being given |
| 6329s | away but Jeff |
| 6333s | Oliver a couple more moments I thought |
| 6337s | that Asian Jeff was going to go for that |
| 6339s | aggressive fight here up against peace |
| 6341s | and his Duo instead just looks to |
| 6345s | reposition Quinn going to Grapple blade |
| 6348s | right on by and poo and Peter bot again |
| 6353s | another team that's really been in hyped |
| 6355s | up as far as their mechanics are |
| 6357s | concerned |
| 6359s | but those SI mechanics you kind of want |
| 6361s | to see it translate into some aggressive |
| 6364s | fights here it's cold and acor I mean it |
| 6367s | aggression is basically all they've been |
| 6369s | dealing with this entire match so far is |
| 6372s | a makeit will buy cold a little bit of |
| 6374s | time and that Clow Berry Fizz but this |
| 6377s | is this is not a great spot you know |
| 6379s | what though Acorn did pick up anim |
| 6381s | getting to this position here so they're |
| 6383s | fighting to the nail right now to try to |
| 6384s | stay in this game here the lobby is seem |
| 6387s | to have given up the attention and focus |
| 6389s | on them for now Co gets pieced on the uh |
| 6392s | rotate here but still have a ways to go |
| 6395s | one more box up and think should settle |
| 6396s | down but no Acorn caught in traffic and |
| 6399s | he tries to close the gap to get to cold |
| 6402s | there I'm not sure what went wrong they |
| 6404s | both had grapple blades and just about |
| 6406s | everything they needed but he must have |
| 6409s | just gotten super unlucky landed in a |
| 6411s | position that got him pieced up for a |
| 6413s | moment there so the shoes are exchange |
| 6416s | now C is going to have to play this one |
| 6417s | out by himself meanwhile Peter bot boo |
| 6420s | in a fight here five elim so far talked |
| 6423s | about them a lot at the top of show |
| 6424s | right one of the most mechanical teams |
| 6427s | we've seen come together we all know |
| 6429s | that mechanics are not enough right you |
| 6432s | need the game sense you got to play |
| 6434s | smart let's see if peterb can put all of |
| 6436s | his learnings together here alongside |
| 6437s | poo he's going to die on Jeff everyone |
| 6441s | knows the big Spotlight on Jeff nowadays |
| 6443s | so big seven elims right there is going |
| 6445s | to set Peter bot up feeling pretty good |
| 6447s | right now I think that's what Peter bot |
| 6449s | does so well though it's not even just |
| 6452s | it is a fullon mental game when you are |
| 6455s | dealing with Peter bot in your lobby and |
| 6457s | just like that he's ready to move on to |
| 6459s | his next Target but he gets eight up on |
| 6462s | that grapple blade |
| 6465s | rotation tough stuff too when you're |
| 6467s | just watching your Shield get prly fully |
| 6470s | depleted I mean two Shield left on Peter |
| 6473s | bot going to be able to reain it the |
| 6475s | course but it's just kind of keeping you |
| 6479s | on your toes you can't just use these |
| 6481s | grapple blades as freely as maybe some |
| 6484s | of these players are are trying to |
| 6486s | actually get away with instead going to |
| 6488s | be chimp looking to rotate off of that |
| 6491s | flow berry juice in |
| 6494s | now the scissor right next to |
| 6497s | him this is out this is about a center |
| 6500s | of a Zone can come finally get get a |
| 6503s | little bit of a a different vibe here on |
| 6505s | the broadcast we're right outside the |
| 6506s | ruined |
| 6507s | reels and this is all dead center it's |
| 6510s | going to get away from the water play |
| 6511s | over the land relatively smooth |
| 6516s | territory this is where it becomes real |
| 6518s | textbook it starts to feel like a a |
| 6520s | creative game if you will not too much |
| 6522s | crazy elevation not too many Secrets |
| 6524s | Oliver OG though finds a secret from his |
| 6526s | own down in the low ground there as he |
| 6528s | gets taken out meanwhile chimpire also |
| 6531s | in this game okay lot of feature time |
| 6534s | here for cold though still in the |
| 6536s | running here finds another elen not |
| 6538s | giving up by any |
| 6540s | means just kind of barely managing to |
| 6543s | hang with that damage threshold 94 above |
| 6548s | so cold looking to pull himself into the |
| 6552s | front side of Zone but immediate box up |
| 6556s | decent amount of builds as well for a |
| 6557s | solo here MDF he can just remain a |
| 6559s | little bit more hidden but that's just |
| 6561s | not cold play style looks as though he's |
| 6562s | trying to find an elimination see if he |
| 6564s | can maybe find someone to potentially |
| 6567s | drop him some small Shield potions or |
| 6570s | even a shield potion any sort of Shield |
| 6573s | sustain is really all he's looking oh |
| 6576s | that was so good that was so good |
| 6578s | recognizes Lancers tries to run out the |
| 6579s | side there catches him with the cone and |
| 6582s | then edits it immediately there no time |
| 6584s | wasted and that's just how deadly cold |
| 6587s | can be right here you let your guard |
| 6589s | down and you're going to get sent back |
| 6591s | to the lobby and it's just incredible to |
| 6593s | see how medkit have made such a |
| 6595s | Resurgence here being able to use it on |
| 6597s | the move like this it is just such a a |
| 6600s | great addition to the game a subtle |
| 6602s | change but it changes everything and it |
| 6604s | makes it so relevant to play in a high |
| 6607s | high paac speed like this a going to |
| 6609s | stay in his Zone meanwhile on high |
| 6610s | ground though TK and bacon are setting |
| 6612s | themselves up to take a win here TK no |
| 6614s | strangers to fncs lobbies no stranger to |
| 6617s | you know uh uh the pressure and neither |
| 6620s | is Peter bot take a look at this he's by |
| 6621s | himself as |
| 6624s | well unfortunately for Peter bot poo |
| 6629s | getting mixed up with some of these |
| 6632s | other teams in these mid ground layers |
| 6634s | and now Walkers forc a drop full bottom |
| 6636s | side finds an okay refresh but |
| 6638s | immediately gets elim the moment he |
| 6641s | tries to mantle up after collecting |
| 6643s | those materials so won't get any use out |
| 6645s | of them but Peter bot again trying to |
| 6647s | charge forward trying not to draw too |
| 6649s | much attention here |
| 6652s | beautiful succession there just |
| 6655s | continuing to piece him up now charging |
| 6659s | watch him work look at how he turned |
| 6662s | that around a 2v one this is what we |
| 6665s | talked about mechanics mechanics |
| 6667s | mechanics you put Peter bot in endgame |
| 6669s | especially if he's feeling it you're |
| 6671s | going to see it come to life and all of |
| 6674s | a sudden now it's Peter B's High |
| 6677s | ground it's just the fact that a solo is |
| 6680s | the one the sole Contender towards that |
| 6684s | high ground and yet bacon forced to give |
| 6688s | up that positioning petbot though might |
| 6690s | upd off a little bit more than he could |
| 6691s | shoot here on the ultimate low ground |
| 6693s | he's going to turn through the wrong |
| 6695s | wall here and will meet his demise but |
| 6699s | still a really solid run for a solo clle |
| 6702s | situation there poo definitely got to be |
| 6704s | happy with his Duos performance in that |
| 6705s | regard yeah look at this ver no extra |
| 6708s | heals just the one make he's going to |
| 6709s | try to tap off here bergo on the low |
| 6712s | ground does have a little bit of work |
| 6713s | with so this this can really go either |
| 6716s | Which Way chip has to come back he does |
| 6718s | eventually come back to the fight there |
| 6719s | puts a little bit of pressure on the low |
| 6721s | ground team but it's not going to be |
| 6722s | enough ver and Yumi have to come down |
| 6724s | and take this fight they are the notable |
| 6726s | of the two here but broken has been in |
| 6728s | these kind of positions before he's |
| 6730s | experienced here and look poised |
| 6732s | defensive on the low ground waiting and |
| 6735s | they just don't see it coming verton |
| 6736s | Yumi dropped the ball and they should |
| 6739s | have had that game in the back but they |
| 6741s | get outperformed by |
| 6744s | broken just a wonderful master class as |
| 6747s | far as making sure that you connect your |
| 6749s | shots is |
| 6751s | concerned you love to see it excellent |
| 6754s | excellent positioning there is going to |
| 6756s | put them in a position to go ahead and |
| 6757s | swing things around hey look a second |
| 6759s | place 8 elim is is still a wonderful |
| 6761s | game but for Virgo and broken look at |
| 6764s | how they outplay the the situation here |
| 6766s | Virgo finds a tag swings around jumps |
| 6768s | down and closes the deal in spectacular |
| 6772s | fashion and just like that another one |
| 6774s | is inside the |
| 6779s | bseek again I love you call this out |
| 6781s | it's not necessarily like they dropped |
| 6783s | the ball that's not exactly what |
| 6785s | happened right they just got outplayed |
| 6787s | and in those critical moments it's |
| 6789s | almost like that's what I like expect to |
| 6791s | see out of a normal fncs Lobby right |
| 6793s | like really slow methodical where are |
| 6796s | they what where could they be but |
| 6797s | because of the nature of these lobbies |
| 6799s | he's just ramping chaotic games I'm sure |
| 6801s | it was just like What's Happening by the |
| 6803s | time they had that moment to breathe it |
| 6804s | was just too late yeah some of the |
| 6806s | coolest moments we see in fortnite |
| 6807s | competitive history is when there's like |
| 6808s | a 2v2 in the end game one of the teams |
| 6811s | is on highight and one of them is on the |
| 6813s | low ground and usually that goes to the |
| 6815s | team that is on height very very often |
| 6818s | but that was not the case right here |
| 6819s | broken and Virgo did such a good job of |
| 6822s | playing with the refresh mats they got |
| 6824s | in order to go ahead and find themselves |
| 6825s | an advantage I mean the side shots The |
| 6827s | Mantel it was all there I think also it |
| 6831s | it was that they weren't on true low |
| 6833s | ground they were kind of on this like |
| 6835s | Low Middle Ground so then once vert and |
| 6837s | Yumi dropped down they were able to like |
| 6839s | get a good edit and take the shot on |
| 6842s | them which I don't think vert and Yumi |
| 6844s | were expecting so I think broken and |
| 6846s | Virgo with their bills was able to kind |
| 6848s | of get an advantageous position in that |
| 6851s | endgame yeah just those little things |
| 6853s | right just those little like I just know |
| 6855s | that with this all chaos going on I'm |
| 6857s | just going to try to make that one just |
| 6858s | Zen play and Hope that it works out and |
| 6860s | for them it does of course second place |
| 6863s | still fantastic you're still going to |
| 6864s | slam points on the leaderboards let's |
| 6866s | take a look at Peter bot though who went |
| 6868s | on a bit of a tear there in this last |
| 6871s | game man I'm telling you especially this |
| 6874s | like him being by himself in those like |
| 6876s | final moments of that game like if they |
| 6878s | were together man they're both alive |
| 6881s | they can just cause so much Havoc to a |
| 6883s | Lobby yeah 100% right and they were |
| 6885s | doing that for quite some time here but |
| 6887s | it eventually got to the point where |
| 6888s | pbot was left as a solo and oh my gosh |
| 6892s | did we get to witness something |
| 6894s | absolutely incredible you're probably |
| 6895s | like wait Peter bot's on a height right |
| 6897s | now how did he get up there with some |
| 6898s | incredible plays on the TK and I was |
| 6901s | thinking to myself imagine your TK and |
| 6903s | you're going back to like biew this and |
| 6904s | Peter bot just like mechanically |
| 6906s | outplaying you like you're just like |
| 6908s | okay well like I don't really know what |
| 6909s | to do next |
| 6911s | time oh well with this spot like right |
| 6914s | here it says that they're currently in |
| 6915s | first place I'd love to see if that's |
| 6916s | true obviously the leaderboard is |
| 6918s | jumping all over the place with all five |
| 6919s | of these LOB is going on but yeah when I |
| 6921s | saw that Peter bot had two mythics the |
| 6923s | striker AR and the Hammer Pump which are |
| 6925s | arguably the two best mythics out of the |
| 6927s | five I knew that he was going to be |
| 6929s | going on an absolute tear right there |
| 6931s | unfortunately he did lose poo but they |
| 6933s | went down in fifth place with a bunch of |
| 6935s | eliminations so clearly going to be a |
| 6936s | good situation for them that's right we |
| 6938s | want to break down more but you heard |
| 6939s | that bus it's game time we're jumping |
| 6941s | back on board with clicks and epic |
| 6948s | whale well here we have it we're getting |
| 6950s | into the uh the late stages of the event |
| 6955s | of the qualifier games are going to |
| 6957s | start to uh really hit that breaking |
| 6959s | point now again it's a battle for |
| 6962s | consistency it's a battle for points |
| 6965s | here |
| 6966s | ultimately this Lobby I'm looking at the |
| 6968s | feed there too Meo and Cooper have found |
| 6970s | themselves in this Lobby alongside epic |
| 6972s | whale click so you can already tell it's |
| 6975s | going to be a good one clicks at three |
| 6977s | eliminations again as well here Taco so |
| 6979s | uh every time we've jumped in I mean |
| 6981s | they've at least had some numbers on the |
| 6984s | board I have to imagine that some of |
| 6986s | those Elms probably stemming from the |
| 6988s | fact that they drop over at lavish Lair |
| 6991s | being one of the name pois that has that |
| 6993s | Mythic weapon Oscars frenzy AO on top of |
| 6997s | Oscar's Medallion can definitely see why |
| 6999s | teams would be choosing to try and |
| 7001s | contest clicks and epic for the |
| 7003s | opportunity to try and get that loot for |
| 7005s | themselves but yeah that's that's what |
| 7006s | I'm expecting those three |
| 7008s | elms to have stem |
| 7012s | from but more on them later on see how |
| 7016s | they Faire after having left the rift |
| 7018s | Island seems as though they were able to |
| 7020s | gather everything that they wanted to |
| 7021s | for the time being but Cooper Auto |
| 7027s | only just hanging out my reckless |
| 7030s | Railway is not really sold on which |
| 7034s | direction they want to head |
| 7037s | first World's kind of their oyster at |
| 7039s | this point |
| 7041s | yep when you're the global Champions you |
| 7042s | know you can decide how you want to do |
| 7044s | this whole thing I mean they're chilling |
| 7046s | they're doing pretty good three |
| 7047s | eliminations not too bad they want to |
| 7049s | play for end games I think this is where |
| 7051s | we |
| 7051s | arege yeah I feel I do feel like this is |
| 7054s | where we're going to see teams start to |
| 7056s | uh to Pace out a little bit differently |
| 7058s | we're going to see teams of course try |
| 7059s | to do their comeback games but um if I |
| 7062s | had to guess in the in the middle of |
| 7064s | this entire you know equation there's |
| 7066s | going to be some that decide to ease up |
| 7068s | a little bit just try to maintain the |
| 7070s | lead not necessarily Force anything big |
| 7073s | cck an epic inside the top 20 there |
| 7076s | SharkMan and Elsa slipped down after you |
| 7079s | know kick it off to a hot start |
| 7081s | alongside boa and a so a little bit of a |
| 7083s | trend there see if they can catch that |
| 7085s | Tailwind again however we jump back in |
| 7087s | with Aaron and |
| 7089s | chance they have to make a rotate here |
| 7092s | so not completely safe they're going to |
| 7093s | give up the team fight instead of |
| 7094s | sticking around I like the call here I |
| 7097s | like the adjustment to play for zone now |
| 7100s | it's |
| 7103s | smart yeah playing for Zone especially |
| 7107s | given the circumstances I mean how many |
| 7109s | times have we seen teams just get picked |
| 7111s | off trying to make some of those later |
| 7114s | rotations even teams with the early |
| 7115s | rotations depending on how you're |
| 7116s | actually utilizing the the grapple blade |
| 7118s | or just your movements in general seems |
| 7121s | as though everyone's kind of just |
| 7123s | keeping an eye out try to see if they |
| 7124s | can place a small edit look for tags |
| 7128s | whichever which way |
| 7130s | or even just knocks him full |
| 7133s | Elms it's nothing that warrants I think |
| 7136s | any sort of immediate chase down |
| 7138s | whenever Shields get broken by a solo or |
| 7141s | a Duo but at the same time it is kind of |
| 7144s | just trying to claim space I think for a |
| 7147s | lot of these teams especially some of |
| 7149s | our more experienced teams that are |
| 7150s | definitely trying to control the flow of |
| 7152s | the |
| 7153s | lobby jump back in with clicks I don't |
| 7156s | see epic whale nearby he has to close |
| 7158s | the gap there catch back |
| 7161s | up bit of a split here might have |
| 7164s | been kind of forced into the situation |
| 7167s | the Zone's going to pull pretty far |
| 7168s | right now and it kind of makes sense I |
| 7171s | can see clicks does not have a grapple |
| 7174s | meanwhile epic has Crash Pad so some |
| 7178s | Mobility on one side none on the other |
| 7179s | there it is they end up connecting with |
| 7181s | one another they're at four eliminations |
| 7183s | now continuing to rack up on and off |
| 7186s | camera take a look at Pandy and how he's |
| 7188s | picking up some action here too double |
| 7191s | edit trap door caught and |
| 7196s | finished just a clean play outright |
| 7199s | that's a good confidence Builder play as |
| 7201s | well you can see Pandy kind of looking |
| 7203s | to keep trying to push |
| 7206s | forward sees another team there and |
| 7210s | Cris thinking about maybe looking for a |
| 7213s | challenges from slightly |
| 7215s | above and again it's kind of a refresh |
| 7218s | that's needed in terms of finding some |
| 7220s | white heal resources even even finding |
| 7223s | like a standard shield potion instead of |
| 7224s | just these small Shield potions could go |
| 7226s | a long way right now for Pandy and |
| 7230s | ker you have to be careful chrisen noxy |
| 7232s | a very experienced Duo lot of years |
| 7235s | playing with one another many many games |
| 7237s | under their belt meanwhile on High |
| 7238s | Ground X off in Toronto putting down the |
| 7242s | pressure laying down the story trying to |
| 7245s | see who's going to pick it up for a read |
| 7247s | so far three elims not bad by any means |
| 7250s | Z's going to pull pretty far though yeah |
| 7253s | and they're going to go for it okay I |
| 7255s | don't really know how I feel about this |
| 7258s | but they are going to commit to build |
| 7260s | out all the way across here this going |
| 7262s | to be a huge material commitment we'll |
| 7263s | tune in with them in just a second we'll |
| 7266s | be right back on that one but first on |
| 7269s | the low ground let's see what clicks and |
| 7271s | epic we all going to do here also eyeing |
| 7273s | up an opportunity here and there it is |
| 7275s | we called it this is even this is even |
| 7277s | crazier another team wants to jump jump |
| 7279s | in to this incredible tarp here it's so |
| 7283s | far why go for it yeah EXO changed his |
| 7285s | mind look at all that material |
| 7288s | save but still at least 30 builds having |
| 7292s | been expended towards that initial tarp |
| 7294s | out and that's that's quite a lot to to |
| 7298s | kind of risk first reward it I'm just |
| 7299s | not sure that there was ever really much |
| 7301s | reward for him |
| 7303s | waiting but hey that's where some of |
| 7307s | these other teams can try to look to |
| 7308s | take advantage and clicks and epic |
| 7310s | taking a moment to look up recognize the |
| 7312s | team on height but clicks not finding |
| 7314s | opportunity just yet to actually |
| 7315s | challenge them instead it's going to be |
| 7317s | some nice shots |
| 7318s | connected into the box up against maxo |
| 7320s | and doer doer completely on the back |
| 7323s | foot here just trying to do what he can |
| 7325s | the tarpon stay alive and clicks and |
| 7328s | epic they're actually going to choose to |
| 7329s | just keep moving forward they don't want |
| 7331s | to get caught up in any sort of |
| 7333s | congestion in these make ground layers |
| 7334s | they know they've got to stay moving |
| 7336s | with the Zone a lot of our experience du |
| 7339s | starting to look up here trying to see |
| 7340s | if there's a little bit of vulnerability |
| 7342s | up top and it does seem like it once you |
| 7344s | see those wood builds you know there's a |
| 7346s | chance for you to go for it but miror |
| 7348s | wants a refresher instead here he jumps |
| 7350s | on down following Cooper's lead right |
| 7352s | now very interesting to see how this is |
| 7355s | going to play out meanwhile epic loses |
| 7356s | clicks epic will now left by himself |
| 7358s | here 50 builds 40 builds just a couple |
| 7361s | more to work with tagged up too tough |
| 7365s | spot to be in here but staying Alive Now |
| 7368s | is really all that matters just place |
| 7369s | points right in front of him he's got to |
| 7371s | stay up for another 30 seconds or so |
| 7374s | yeah but with no build he's just got to |
| 7376s | take his chances won't be able to find a |
| 7380s | successful swing around there Ziggy with |
| 7381s | the elimination onto epic will cut his |
| 7384s | run short here in this lobby but curv |
| 7387s | and zanda we saw them really early on |
| 7390s | looking to challenge |
| 7392s | Ziggy on that height T and they're still |
| 7395s | holding it haven't been chopped out just |
| 7397s | yet haven't had another team directly |
| 7398s | aggress we seen some instances from Auto |
| 7400s | only and Cooper potentionally looking to |
| 7402s | try and take over but again Auto only |
| 7406s | Cooper looking them try and make their |
| 7408s | way up from the secondary height layer |
| 7412s | not many builds left though for auto |
| 7414s | only six builds to his name now has |
| 7416s | decent resources though so might just |
| 7418s | look to try and brawl out on the low |
| 7420s | ground see if they can find materials |
| 7421s | refresh that way I definitely respect it |
| 7424s | Meo and Cooper getting active here |
| 7426s | cleaning up house down low lot of |
| 7430s | mats to be picked up as well so this |
| 7431s | going to put them right back in the game |
| 7432s | here miror left behind though Cooper's |
| 7434s | going to double back here try to get a |
| 7436s | little bit of support going here catches |
| 7439s | one in the mix there on high ground it |
| 7441s | was curv and xand okay so the big fight |
| 7443s | for High Ground ends up working out but |
| 7444s | this time they are now |
| 7447s | materialist just for elims Meo gives up |
| 7450s | The High Ground again just playing |
| 7451s | ultimate low here trying to rack up elim |
| 7453s | is working so far he's at a big seven |
| 7455s | but this is it they're starting to gas |
| 7457s | out now cash gets caught another one |
| 7460s | swings around to them and miro's |
| 7462s | probably going to be the player that |
| 7463s | goes for High Ground you can see him |
| 7465s | making that decision he already has the |
| 7466s | grapple blade here but the duo comes |
| 7467s | down together they also are desperate |
| 7470s | here it's an all or nothing situation |
| 7472s | Cur not looking to play For The High |
| 7473s | Ground miral SS up aside just a little |
| 7475s | bit more clever a stronger angle and |
| 7478s | Cooper Meo win the game Cooper and Meo |
| 7482s | just knew that they had this one fully |
| 7484s | under control by the end there zanda and |
| 7486s | curb just completely ran out of build |
| 7488s | they had to drop eventually the way that |
| 7490s | that zone was pulling back over that |
| 7492s | Hill that loss of elevation just made it |
| 7495s | impossible for gin Anda to try and stay |
| 7499s | upright there but a wonderful challenge |
| 7501s | as well out of Auto only making sure |
| 7505s | that it wasn't going to resort to a heal |
| 7506s | off in the end couldn't come down to |
| 7508s | heal off not when they didn't have any |
| 7511s | you know grapple blades to work with the |
| 7513s | fear boys were forced into a fight right |
| 7515s | here but Meo he reacted sooner before |
| 7518s | they made the move he just probably |
| 7520s | sensed it coming and had a stronger |
| 7522s | angle and just like that they end up |
| 7523s | closing out with a 10 elimination win |
| 7525s | our Global Champions put up some big |
| 7527s | numbers |
| 7532s | there Absolut Cooper |
| 7536s | hero y'all did not for real just do that |
| 7540s | that was like how to perform a pincer |
| 7543s | attack |
| 7544s | 101 like that could not have gone any |
| 7548s | better wow and this is actually |
| 7550s | something I kind of wanted to bring up |
| 7551s | with you guys like as much as I'm |
| 7553s | enjoying this super fast-paced Lobby |
| 7555s | kind of action there is still that |
| 7557s | moment where like hey you know you kind |
| 7559s | of have to when you get into these type |
| 7561s | of situations you got to fall back on |
| 7562s | what you're used to right like you could |
| 7564s | just go all in and go we're going for |
| 7565s | the win you know this and that but for |
| 7567s | them they just stopped for just one |
| 7569s | moment they're like hey we can win this |
| 7571s | game we just got to do what we know we |
| 7573s | have to do let's execute and it was just |
| 7577s | beautifully done I love forite sometimes |
| 7579s | right because you know we ended up with |
| 7580s | a 2v2 at the end of this game but each |
| 7584s | side of those two each side of that duo |
| 7586s | right there in that 2v2 how they |
| 7588s | actually got into that position just |
| 7590s | looked completely different we had xanda |
| 7592s | and curve up on The High Ground right |
| 7593s | they were kind of just chilling not |
| 7594s | really going for many fights just kind |
| 7597s | of like spraying everybody down and then |
| 7598s | there's just Cooper and Miro on the low |
| 7600s | ground for like two complete zones the |
| 7602s | entire time they're just like building |
| 7605s | and box fighting finding refreshes and |
| 7607s | just continuing that pace through rout |
| 7609s | and it's just so cool to see that's how |
| 7611s | they actually ended up finding 10 of |
| 7612s | those eliminations in the Playbook right |
| 7615s | there right there's so much stuff that |
| 7616s | they know that they can do in those |
| 7618s | moments to win that game mea was so |
| 7621s | smart throughout that entire end game |
| 7623s | you could see and you would hear MDF |
| 7625s | talk about it how he's trying to take |
| 7626s | High ground but then backing off he was |
| 7628s | really just kind of poking learning from |
| 7629s | his opponents seeing what they're doing |
| 7630s | and seeing how they react and then once |
| 7633s | it finally came down to the 2v2 he runs |
| 7635s | back and for a moment I thought maybe |
| 7636s | he's going to go look for the heels but |
| 7638s | no you said at Zeke that pincer move |
| 7640s | that he did where he made sure that the |
| 7642s | angles were exactly perfect and able to |
| 7644s | get those shots off what a brilliant |
| 7645s | play for Meo just executing on all |
| 7649s | cylinders right like they are still |
| 7651s | aware we are Global Champions and at |
| 7653s | every moment anytime you see us we will |
| 7656s | be performing at that level let's take a |
| 7658s | look at the standings how are things |
| 7660s | kind of going with all these lobbies all |
| 7662s | happening at the same time what's |
| 7663s | unfolding well sitting at the top we've |
| 7666s | got Baka and pars with 207 points but |
| 7670s | look just not that far below Peter bot |
| 7672s | poo agers Canada Yumi vert just how this |
| 7677s | continues to change moment to moment |
| 7680s | guys this is next level looking |
| 7682s | extremely stacked for sure let's not |
| 7685s | forget you know after this actually |
| 7686s | closes out today and and by the way on |
| 7688s | the day we're only about halfway through |
| 7690s | so I still a lot of games left to play |
| 7692s | still find for those series Point |
| 7694s | leaderboards which will be in |
| 7695s | culmination with next weekend the next |
| 7697s | qualifier as well so if you're not doing |
| 7699s | too hot or if you're doing good you |
| 7700s | still got to perform next |
| 7702s | weekend that's true and obviously both |
| 7705s | weekends matter it's the culmination of |
| 7707s | both points from there but looking at |
| 7709s | some of the other top names that we have |
| 7710s | right here we got clicks and epic whale |
| 7712s | who we got to see in the most recent |
| 7713s | game in 14th Place right now so not |
| 7715s | doing too bad as well as ritual and re |
| 7717s | in 11th place but we got to talk about |
| 7719s | Peter bot and Poyo for just a quick |
| 7721s | second that their current average |
| 7723s | placement right now is fifth a lot of |
| 7725s | teams have already played five even six |
| 7727s | games but they've only played three and |
| 7729s | they've done top six every single time |
| 7731s | but now focusing back on clicks in Epic |
| 7733s | whale yeah listen couple of Snipes |
| 7735s | coming out there Zeke right we've been |
| 7736s | jump into so many of these end games |
| 7738s | very very quickly that you know we're |
| 7740s | kind of skipping out on the early in the |
| 7742s | mid game we haven't seen too many Snipes |
| 7744s | uh throughout the day so far that's |
| 7745s | going to be the first two that I think |
| 7747s | I've |
| 7747s | seen yeah clicks has been putting in a |
| 7750s | lot of practice and he kind of gets in |
| 7752s | this mode where it's like okay I need to |
| 7754s | land a head shot snipe and he kind of |
| 7756s | starts to psych himself up and then |
| 7758s | eventually one happens just like that |
| 7761s | super well executed from them as well |
| 7763s | it's just so cool man the the dynamic |
| 7765s | we've got going on game to game moment |
| 7767s | to moment Duo to Duo so much has going |
| 7771s | on and guess what we still have so much |
| 7773s | left to see we're jumping on in we got |
| 7775s | to talk about buga and VI currently in |
| 7777s | 37th Place and something I kind of just |
| 7779s | thought about that I kind of oriented |
| 7781s | myself with like 37th sounds really bad |
| 7786s | but you got to remember there's 500 |
| 7788s | players right these guys are in the top |
| 7791s | 50 so just kind of Orient yourself in |
| 7794s | that way right we're kind of used to |
| 7795s | just seeing a a a Lobby of 50 Duos but |
| 7799s | this is 250 Duos we're looking at for |
| 7801s | them to be in that top 50 is like a |
| 7804s | testament to their to their skill yeah |
| 7806s | They Came Out Swinging their right they |
| 7808s | did get that Victory out very very |
| 7809s | quickly so I wouldn't be surprised if |
| 7811s | they could uh pick up at least one more |
| 7814s | of those throughout the rest of the |
| 7815s | games oh yeah there is a little bit |
| 7817s | concern though because besides that |
| 7819s | first game that they had they have been |
| 7820s | dropping down kind of early around 30th |
| 7823s | Place has their last two games been |
| 7825s | however even in 30th Place they're able |
| 7826s | to get 13 eliminations so it seems to be |
| 7830s | just kind of one play or another that's |
| 7831s | kind of throwing them for a loop but the |
| 7833s | aggression and the play style still |
| 7837s | there yeah I like that you know and of |
| 7839s | course this aggressive play style I mean |
| 7841s | it seems to be working right some Duos |
| 7843s | just saying look we just got to gun it |
| 7845s | we just got to go for it go all in and |
| 7847s | for some Duos it's working right but for |
| 7849s | the ones that aren't like what's |
| 7851s | happening what's that wall that's just |
| 7852s | preventing them from kind of getting |
| 7854s | these eliminations making these top |
| 7855s | fives well I mean it could just be a |
| 7856s | matter of right when you're playing |
| 7858s | aggressive in these types of lobbies |
| 7859s | maybe you're getting used to kind of |
| 7861s | fighting some people who maybe aren't |
| 7862s | necessarily used to an fncs Lobby some |
| 7865s | less experienced players and then maybe |
| 7867s | they just kind of run into somebody |
| 7868s | who's like a peterb and a poo and |
| 7870s | they're like oh uh yeah maybe we |
| 7872s | shouldn't necessarily do that all the |
| 7875s | time maybe we we went a little too ham |
| 7878s | maybe just a little to H I mean we've |
| 7880s | even seen our top teams like Acorn and |
| 7882s | cold struggle going down and having to |
| 7884s | be rebooted and then still going down |
| 7886s | after that I think that what we said at |
| 7888s | the start of the show is that this is |
| 7890s | going to be very unpredictable they |
| 7892s | don't know how those rotations are going |
| 7894s | to work out they don't know how those |
| 7895s | zones are going to be facing and who |
| 7897s | they're going to be running into whereas |
| 7899s | before they would kind of learn how |
| 7901s | their opponents that are near them play |
| 7903s | and now they don't have that safety yeah |
| 7905s | I'm kind of curious as to like hope in |
| 7907s | the future we can get like an interview |
| 7909s | with some of our players and just ask |
| 7910s | them what did you think about these |
| 7911s | first two weeks right did you learn |
| 7913s | anything from kind of this different |
| 7914s | play on that you're maybe used to |
| 7916s | playing cuz I feel like for me it's kind |
| 7918s | of helping me see like when a Duo that |
| 7920s | we know to be good is put in these |
| 7922s | situations where like you don't really |
| 7923s | have every anything or maybe you come |
| 7925s | around you open a a wall and then |
| 7927s | suddenly there's two separate Duos that |
| 7928s | normally wouldn't be there how are they |
| 7931s | reacting what are they doing to then say |
| 7933s | okay I have to reassess in one moment |
| 7935s | and then make the right call yeah 100% |
| 7937s | And I feel like you know you're you're |
| 7938s | mentioning reassessing kind of like in |
| 7940s | the moment as well I feel like the kind |
| 7942s | of like mentality for some of our top |
| 7944s | teams is probably to play a little bit |
| 7946s | Loose as it comes into these qualifiers |
| 7947s | right because you know they are so good |
| 7950s | at being top players that usually they |
| 7952s | are used to just creating strategies and |
| 7954s | making sure that they have a solid game |
| 7956s | plan for some of these set Lobby things |
| 7958s | but something like this we're kind of |
| 7959s | queuing into just all of these players |
| 7961s | at once you know again they got to play |
| 7964s | a little bit more Lucy right they can't |
| 7965s | just play 100% a game plan or a strategy |
| 7968s | because they have no idea who's going to |
| 7970s | be in the lobby so I feel like playing a |
| 7971s | little bit more Loosely which is why |
| 7972s | we've seen a little bit more mechanical |
| 7974s | play so far or some high elimination |
| 7977s | games out of some of our top |
| 7980s | Duos for me I'm excited to see these end |
| 7982s | games sorry Zeke I just want to talk |
| 7984s | more about the end games I'm just that |
| 7985s | excited about it but I'm I'm hoping that |
| 7987s | we get to see like a a 20 elimination |
| 7989s | game that that's definitely something |
| 7990s | that I kind of uh wasn't expecting to |
| 7992s | get close to but then some of these |
| 7993s | teams have gotone 16 18 elims already |
| 7996s | can we get a 20 though Kelly you you |
| 7998s | know what I liked it's eliminations |
| 8000s | that's we're we're right here Kelly we |
| 8002s | hope that you are here with us as well |
| 8004s | cuz guess what we have more games poo |
| 8007s | peterb could they finally take us over |
| 8009s | that 20 elimination game let's find |
| 8016s | out but we'll just have to see because |
| 8018s | Peter bot was treating those uh that |
| 8021s | last showcase as if he was in a creative |
| 8023s | match the way he was building and |
| 8025s | flexing as a solo in the end game but |
| 8028s | honestly just goes to show that this |
| 8029s | team has got what it takes to perform at |
| 8031s | the top of the top you put them in a you |
| 8033s | know a 250 of the best doesn't matter |
| 8035s | they're up there somewhere in the in the |
| 8037s | upper echelon and look six eliminations |
| 8039s | once again as we tuned in here so every |
| 8041s | game seems to be trending in their |
| 8043s | Direction I mean their lowest elim match |
| 8047s | today was in their first game with a |
| 8049s | fourth place finish eight elims |
| 8052s | everything after that it's just been all |
| 8055s | top 10 finishes for starters from poo |
| 8057s | and Peter by |
| 8058s | in the lobbies they participated in so |
| 8060s | far and with six Elms again already |
| 8063s | being AC crude in this match monster I I |
| 8066s | can expect that peterb and po they're |
| 8069s | not just playing for elims either I mean |
| 8072s | this this placement so far especially |
| 8075s | for a not being set lobbies to be this |
| 8077s | consistent that's what you you kind of |
| 8080s | expect and ask for from some of these |
| 8082s | veteran players and peterb and poo |
| 8084s | they're certainly delivering on more |
| 8085s | than just mechanics here yeah you can |
| 8087s | see the the standing is just a bit ago |
| 8089s | showing that they're up there with the |
| 8090s | likes of re and ritual who have also |
| 8092s | just playing exceptionally well so far |
| 8095s | but TK and bacon have something to prove |
| 8097s | here this is the second time now we've |
| 8099s | actually seen them in Peter bot's Lobby |
| 8101s | too so just seems like they're on that |
| 8103s | same Cadence making end games queuing up |
| 8106s | right around the same time so where |
| 8108s | there is a lot of volatility and a lot |
| 8110s | of Randomness to occur I mean at the end |
| 8112s | of the to day if you're playing as great |
| 8114s | as you can be you're going to kind of |
| 8116s | have still some somewhat of a assist |
| 8118s | right um that a formula if you will that |
| 8121s | you can expect TK however though about |
| 8124s | the worst that we've seen him so far |
| 8126s | alongside bacon both teams hurt here |
| 8128s | this is stixon 411 right now trying to |
| 8131s | push right now bacon not getting a |
| 8133s | chance to breathe at all stick tries to |
| 8134s | grab the wall there almost caught him up |
| 8137s | but just wasn't quick |
| 8140s | enough TK and bacon doing a great job at |
| 8144s | basically just preventing sticks from |
| 8146s | looking to capitalize on that initial |
| 8149s | Shield cracken now it's going to be TK |
| 8151s | the sneaky little slide around meta |
| 8154s | hoping to stay standing just couple |
| 8156s | moments longer but no TK with the |
| 8158s | elimination finish there so now it's |
| 8161s | going to be TK just continuing to move |
| 8164s | closer to this bridge but seems like |
| 8167s | they drew some unwanted attention here |
| 8170s | as now TK doing his best try and tarp |
| 8174s | out tarp up just kind of get an idea of |
| 8177s | where some of this pressure is being |
| 8178s | applied from as you can tell a lot of |
| 8181s | builds west of |
| 8184s | him you can see though they were kind of |
| 8187s | out at their teams recognizing hey wait |
| 8188s | a second that's not completely safe the |
| 8191s | shot St to come in meanwhile team moose |
| 8192s | hoop here on the pressure team below |
| 8194s | them though in the tarp I wonder did |
| 8196s | they know champo was there with Decay |
| 8200s | they're at three elims now as they pull |
| 8203s | this team on down into their territory |
| 8206s | and already |
| 8209s | clean clean set of elims there okay so |
| 8211s | the full refresh is in the verdict |
| 8213s | that's been cast CP doesn't want |
| 8216s | anything to do with this team is like |
| 8217s | all right you guys got |
| 8221s | it at the same time though the K and |
| 8227s | Champa don't seem all that interested in |
| 8230s | trying to actually go for a full punish |
| 8232s | on that solo instead okay |
| 8234s | recognizing a little |
| 8237s | bit too much pressure being applied from |
| 8241s | Yumi and |
| 8243s | vert so instead okay at the fall back |
| 8246s | the time being but Yi vert just continue |
| 8249s | to try and break some of these other |
| 8251s | team builds around them rapic going to |
| 8253s | fall right through the floor at it and |
| 8256s | just like that vert Yumi they add |
| 8259s | another one to their elimination count |
| 8262s | but immediately blown up for it from |
| 8266s | above and that's part of of the problem |
| 8268s | of playing on low ground if you don't |
| 8269s | have that edit above you quick enough I |
| 8272s | mean it's just like Open Season For The |
| 8274s | High Ground teams yeah the sad part he |
| 8276s | was trying to recycle that crash pad |
| 8278s | Junior there but just a bad call bad |
| 8281s | play there should have kept somewhat of |
| 8283s | a ramp overhead but he did not put it |
| 8286s | down in time and gets punished for it |
| 8289s | petbot oo team that we tuned in with to |
| 8292s | start the train though is coming through |
| 8294s | to put it there but it's influence here |
| 8297s | onto the |
| 8298s | luckily there is uh of course the builds |
| 8301s | holding on on the edge there but just |
| 8303s | pure destruction you know just fortnite |
| 8305s | things happening on the low |
| 8309s | ground might have worked out in uh Peter |
| 8312s | bot and foo's favor though just oh yeah |
| 8314s | having some of those builds broken up |
| 8315s | disorienting some of the teams that are |
| 8317s | on that mid ground section and now |
| 8319s | petbot grapple blade forward just |
| 8322s | continuing to build up maintain height |
| 8324s | he's got the metal cones placed in a |
| 8327s | great position |
| 8329s | VOR |
| 8330s | and other players that are trying to see |
| 8333s | where they can jump around grapple blade |
| 8335s | around but again this High Ground |
| 8339s | terrorizing that's taking place from poo |
| 8342s | and peterb it is just causing so much |
| 8345s | restriction for teams that are in this |
| 8347s | Secondary High midg Ground even the low |
| 8349s | ground layers and and again that's just |
| 8351s | what you would expect from an |
| 8353s | experienced team playing The High Ground |
| 8354s | they're just not going to give any sort |
| 8356s | of leeway to everyone else scurrying |
| 8359s | underneath beautiful shot though from |
| 8361s | vert getting that immediate elimination |
| 8363s | offto blink but doesn't get an |
| 8366s | opportunity to look for any sort of |
| 8367s | material refresh kind of tell that FL |
| 8369s | just didn't have much to work with not |
| 8371s | just by himself with the snipe from |
| 8373s | above for boo doesn't drop the moment to |
| 8377s | take advantage there and find himself a |
| 8378s | elim there vert almost had a big |
| 8381s | opportunity there to break towards the |
| 8382s | placement points meanwhile TK falls to |
| 8384s | the zone as well so veteran starting to |
| 8386s | get eliminated here taking off the lobby |
| 8389s | this is going to give peterb and boo a |
| 8390s | lot of Runway to work with here so for |
| 8393s | everyone else is about putting up |
| 8395s | putting up your |
| 8396s | chance getting in and trying to make |
| 8398s | this uh this opportunity for |
| 8400s | yourself chimp and sers in another round |
| 8403s | here as well so far so good another end |
| 8406s | game for chimp for elim as well the |
| 8409s | Zone's going to do its damage though it |
| 8411s | does seem like chip gets caught on the |
| 8413s | edge of the Zone there by Poppin so |
| 8415s | pretty bad spot to find himself in all |
| 8418s | in all though 20 players condense on |
| 8421s | this final Zone here very very tough |
| 8423s | spot to play off |
| 8427s | of just look at sirs though a huge |
| 8431s | backto back pump action now that's going |
| 8435s | to be just enough of a refresh to keep |
| 8438s | cus tarping forward down to only two |
| 8442s | builds yet again though but still just a |
| 8444s | massive clutch finding that double |
| 8446s | elimination |
| 8448s | just doesn't seem like that duo had any |
| 8450s | idea he was pulling up right behind them |
| 8453s | but one Duo that's been on top of the |
| 8454s | lobby the entirety of this match so far |
| 8456s | and just continuing their reain of teror |
| 8458s | it's Peter bot with another easy |
| 8460s | elimination there onto Poppin poo |
| 8464s | following suit 10 for Peter bot seven |
| 8467s | for poo we were asking for 20 and they |
| 8470s | might just deliver I mean we talked |
| 8472s | about this Peter bot just does not |
| 8473s | respect the lobby he saw that there were |
| 8475s | 20 players alive most most people would |
| 8479s | wait he comes down he gives up his |
| 8482s | strong positioning to get into the mix |
| 8484s | here he was getting bored up there with |
| 8486s | nothing to do and down he comes and it |
| 8489s | might just cost them but no they still |
| 8491s | close out strong Foo finishes out the |
| 8493s | deed on the back edge of the Zone there |
| 8495s | and they find themselves an 18 |
| 8498s | elimination win it feels like they're on |
| 8499s | a something of a backto back explosive |
| 8503s | uh runs here and what's even more insane |
| 8506s | is they were in second place on the |
| 8508s | leader board heading into this match |
| 8509s | without a victory Royale because of |
| 8512s | their strong placements and elimination |
| 8514s | so now when you get 18 elims and the VR |
| 8518s | you could only expect that to mean good |
| 8520s | things but that's what L the does to |
| 8523s | basically be able to dictate for us |
| 8525s | later on is how strong exactly Peter bot |
| 8528s | and Poyo have just elevated their |
| 8531s | possible positioning on that leaderboard |
| 8533s | and there it is you can see poo here |
| 8534s | playing The High Ground here he's got |
| 8536s | eyes on the entire field but there was a |
| 8539s | player trying to heal off it just wasn't |
| 8541s | going to be enough and for Peter bot and |
| 8542s | boo they finally take another win there |
| 8545s | that's going to put them up on the |
| 8545s | standing so we got to hear from Zeke |
| 8547s | after that |
| 8549s | one bro we were so close two |
| 8554s | eliminations just two eliminations I |
| 8556s | mean listen 18 elimination Victory |
| 8560s | Royale hats off I mean seriously but I |
| 8563s | want to see the 20 that's all I want to |
| 8566s | see I wish we were so so close it's you |
| 8569s | know what still Vivid of course we have |
| 8570s | to congratulate them Peter bot poo just |
| 8573s | a huge game here on the day yeah I feel |
| 8577s | like uh this will probably like my |
| 8578s | seventh or like eighth time talking |
| 8580s | about how good Peter bot and poo R are |
| 8582s | already today but you know what heck it |
| 8584s | let's just do it again Peter bot and |
| 8586s | boyo they're up on The High Ground and |
| 8587s | yet another game and somehow they go |
| 8589s | into these end games with so many |
| 8591s | eliminations already right so that's |
| 8592s | kind of helping them in that regard and |
| 8594s | getting so many eliminations when these |
| 8596s | games actually close out but we just saw |
| 8598s | the same thing again right we keep |
| 8600s | seeing some of these top teams do this |
| 8602s | where one of the players on the duo kind |
| 8604s | of stays up on The High Ground apply |
| 8606s | some of the pressure and another one |
| 8607s | drops down plays box to box and I mean |
| 8609s | if you got Peter bot on your box taking |
| 8612s | some pieces I mean it's just not going |
| 8614s | to go well for you and he has the heel |
| 8617s | set up he's got some flow berries as |
| 8619s | well as the Fizz PO is kind of doing his |
| 8621s | own thing as well they're constantly |
| 8624s | dropping from like ultimate height to |
| 8626s | like even the mid ground and then just |
| 8628s | taking the height again cuz who's going |
| 8629s | to even try and contest them ending it |
| 8631s | off with 18 eliminations and that |
| 8633s | victory of Royale before this game they |
| 8635s | had an average placement of fifth so I |
| 8638s | can't even imagine now I can't do the |
| 8640s | math I'm not that smart what they're |
| 8642s | going to be and of course in first place |
| 8645s | with a 60o lead Vivid oh my go yeah Zeke |
| 8650s | um they have 49 elims right now that's |
| 8653s | almost 50 already yeah but look down |
| 8656s | third place right Acorn cold 44A and aiv |
| 8660s | 43 remember we saw boa and aiv in 37 |
| 8664s | it's just a game ago and now how things |
| 8666s | change those eliminations man these |
| 8669s | games are wild but I'm getting word we |
| 8673s | are basically ready jump back into the |
| 8675s | next game and it's we're going to hop in |
| 8676s | with that duo in second place it's re |
| 8679s | it's ritual could they get themselves a |
| 8681s | 20 elimination Victory Royale MDF Taco |
| 8684s | over to |
| 8685s | you well |
| 8689s | we are going to have to see if it's |
| 8690s | possible Zeke can we see the big 20 |
| 8695s | elims pull through on broadcast I mean |
| 8699s | if there's a team that could do this |
| 8700s | probably GRE and richual have been |
| 8701s | leading the pack here playing like the |
| 8704s | wolves that they are on the hunt at all |
| 8707s | times in AP pack in unison seven elims |
| 8710s | already and we're only in the fourth |
| 8711s | Zone in this Lobby this is about the |
| 8712s | earliest we've tuned in so far and it |
| 8715s | does seem like re and ritual a lot at |
| 8718s | stake here a lot that they want to say |
| 8719s | to this Lobby right |
| 8721s | now yeah it looks like they're trying to |
| 8723s | make that count nine |
| 8725s | eliminations and right now they've |
| 8727s | definitely got pect on the Run re just |
| 8732s | doing everything he can to chase this |
| 8734s | man down through his build sails not in |
| 8737s | much better position and it's this |
| 8739s | series of angled attacks just so well |
| 8742s | coordinated by re and ritual but ritual |
| 8744s | he's got to be careful here doesn't want |
| 8745s | to find himself getting knocked in the |
| 8747s | proc process that's going to be re |
| 8748s | dropping The Medallion for his teammate |
| 8750s | to take full advantage of but it's also |
| 8753s | buying time here for p and |
| 8756s | ritual Tech able to get some heals going |
| 8760s | for himself and ritual |
| 8763s | obviously focused on on trying to get |
| 8766s | some of that white heals and and shield |
| 8768s | regen |
| 8769s | also but a fall back here from RE and |
| 8773s | ritual they're just going to go full |
| 8775s | High ground but the main thing I want to |
| 8776s | see from RE and ritual |
| 8778s | 20 elimination games are fun MDF but I |
| 8781s | want to see a team on na find three |
| 8785s | Victory Royals like what we saw over in |
| 8787s | Europe from both Vico and pink and c and |
| 8791s | Camy they were the only two teams in EU |
| 8794s | to get three Victory Royals on the day |
| 8797s | and read and ritual not far behind |
| 8798s | they've already got two well that is |
| 8800s | true and there is uh there's some space |
| 8802s | right there's a lot of room for them to |
| 8804s | work towards that Victor roale threshold |
| 8806s | um I would say say that it's definitely |
| 8808s | important that you secure enough wins |
| 8809s | too right just in these these weeks |
| 8811s | leading up it's about the confidence |
| 8812s | boost it's about having uh material to |
| 8815s | go ahead and review right you can key |
| 8817s | all you all yeah you're going to get |
| 8818s | some points and you know play for end |
| 8820s | games but you know how do you review |
| 8822s | those games and and try to take true |
| 8823s | takeaways right sometimes the the best |
| 8825s | learnings come from trying to take it |
| 8827s | easy inside these types of competitive |
| 8829s | lobbies but all in all we get to jump in |
| 8831s | with the aoxy and flow another team that |
| 8833s | has been very much present throughout |
| 8835s | the years here in the competitive space |
| 8838s | pretty decent for them right now they're |
| 8839s | off to a i' say a pretty pretty chill |
| 8845s | start yeah I think the only thing PL |
| 8848s | would probably want a little bit more of |
| 8849s | is maybe some metal but at the same time |
| 8852s | being practically 55 on your wooden |
| 8854s | brick is definitely a nice spot to be |
| 8856s | sitting in and speaking of spots that |
| 8859s | we're sitting in and pen |
| 8862s | Mason they're kind of just here on the |
| 8864s | edge of zone right now over by re |
| 8869s | Railways it's a solid spot for them to |
| 8871s | to kind of get a good idea of where some |
| 8874s | of these other teams might be trying to |
| 8877s | uh |
| 8878s | rotate even just like path around them |
| 8881s | see if they can maybe get some shots |
| 8884s | going for some decent surge tags |
| 8886s | but it does feel like a slight Lull in |
| 8889s | the action compared to what we've been |
| 8891s | watching from the past two lobbies MDF I |
| 8894s | feel as though some of these teams maybe |
| 8897s | hitting their their third fourth matches |
| 8899s | of the day they were just like hey we we |
| 8901s | really need to be like all gas no breaks |
| 8903s | right now because our first couple |
| 8904s | matches didn't go the way we wanted but |
| 8906s | now as we're kind of nearing the end |
| 8908s | point of some of these lobbies on the |
| 8909s | day it does seem as though teams are |
| 8913s | maybe trying to get those last bit of |
| 8914s | placements that they might not have |
| 8916s | necessarily been able to find earlier on |
| 8918s | yeah we've seen a couple games we jump |
| 8920s | in and and you know we're we're below 50 |
| 8922s | players around this area this 62 players |
| 8925s | alive here moving into uh you know the |
| 8927s | half and half out here at zone six so |
| 8929s | this is definitely a game that has |
| 8931s | seemed to have paced its way through re |
| 8933s | and ritual howevers eliminations tell a |
| 8936s | much different story as they've got the |
| 8938s | bulk of the eliminations already ured in |
| 8941s | this Lobby about 20 25% of total elims |
| 8944s | are in |
| 8945s | their uh uh Pockets if you will points |
| 8948s | really been gobbled up there but on the |
| 8950s | other side and Pen Mason having a tough |
| 8952s | time they get pushed in and dropped s |
| 8956s | back back to the lobby who was that that |
| 8958s | was Fenty and Voyager there who decided |
| 8961s | to make a make the decision to take the |
| 8963s | fight there and it pays off uh pretty |
| 8965s | well big dividends for them there they |
| 8966s | needed the elims you can see they were |
| 8968s | below the surge not |
| 8970s | anymore but where's the ammo where's the |
| 8973s | rewards FY needs to find that pick it up |
| 8976s | quickly there it |
| 8977s | is and The Medallion that was oh that's |
| 8981s | the other aspect that that could |
| 8983s | possibly be two medallions now for |
| 8985s | Voyager and |
| 8987s | only mentioning the second because of |
| 8990s | Fenty having that Mythic Nemesis AR |
| 8995s | but right now it's all about |
| 8998s | clicks he's got that Reaper in toe and |
| 9002s | clicks is doing what he does best at |
| 9004s | times just the |
| 9006s | nastiest Reaper sniper shots you could |
| 9009s | imagine just clean with it very nicely |
| 9013s | done 290 by the way don't forget that |
| 9015s | doesn't matter if it has a scope not it |
| 9018s | hits it's going to hit every single time |
| 9020s | if you get that head shot let's take a |
| 9022s | look at reita ritual though putting the |
| 9024s | gas back the pedal back to the metal |
| 9026s | here for a second there trying to decide |
| 9028s | if whether or not they're going to take |
| 9029s | out High Ground here instead hitting a |
| 9031s | bit of a reset Reed has to be careful |
| 9033s | though he did leave that build |
| 9034s | completely open here might be a point of |
| 9040s | vulnerability but just look at this |
| 9042s | problem to have though there's just so |
| 9044s | much good loot and it's all stemming off |
| 9047s | the back of this immediate rundown by re |
| 9052s | and ritual onto Josh and clover just to |
| 9055s | not give this Duo any sort of |
| 9057s | opportunity to recover that immediate |
| 9060s | collapse netting them some awesome |
| 9064s | materials and resources I mean they have |
| 9066s | to basically decide do we want like |
| 9068s | three or four Shield potions or just to |
| 9070s | carry this warberry Fizz and I think a |
| 9072s | lot of |
| 9074s | times more is definit Ely better in |
| 9078s | these kinds of |
| 9082s | lobbies 98 above the threshold now |
| 9084s | though ryzen yzo here looking to cook |
| 9087s | got some feet insight there on the |
| 9090s | Caesars demo be cool he's trying to hold |
| 9093s | the mats there for his teammate there |
| 9095s | Caesar in Demo Man manit bit of a rough |
| 9099s | time yeah feet little sore there he's |
| 9101s | going to be a seat for a second Zone s |
| 9104s | about to come to a close and there's |
| 9105s | still players out on the out of Zone |
| 9107s | meanwhile things are cooking up on the |
| 9109s | other side here clicks and epic wh who |
| 9110s | make no a very comfortable positioning |
| 9113s | here clicks sniper in hand we know |
| 9115s | what's going to happen this time the |
| 9116s | scop Sur and another 290 and a full on |
| 9120s | key to take the positioning there take |
| 9124s | advantage of what's going on man clicks |
| 9126s | is just that |
| 9130s | guy yeah he seems like he's really found |
| 9133s | a nice rhythm with that Reaper sniper |
| 9136s | this match |
| 9138s | again clicks epic they definitely love |
| 9141s | lavish |
| 9142s | Lair see clicks almost every single game |
| 9145s | I'm pretty confident that he's gone for |
| 9147s | Oscar's frenzy Auto seems to really love |
| 9151s | this shotgun and honestly in total MDF I |
| 9154s | I do think that the the frenzy Auto can |
| 9157s | go a little bit crazy maybe a little bit |
| 9158s | crazier as far as like a set Lobby is |
| 9160s | concerned like in GRS in comparison to |
| 9163s | this more like open layout style where |
| 9166s | again nothing is set so you're kind of |
| 9167s | just mix and matching who you're going |
| 9170s | up against and how effectively you can |
| 9173s | kind of angle your aggression but as |
| 9175s | long as as clicks and epic are able to |
| 9178s | run things at at lavish lirer I'm sure |
| 9180s | that they're more than happy to take any |
| 9182s | sort of contest at that POI I mean |
| 9184s | listen Cooper's Duo's name says it all |
| 9187s | auto only LOL all right he's he's in |
| 9190s | he's infested he's feeling it man uh and |
| 9193s | he's shown us everyone's really shown us |
| 9195s | the power especially when you you have |
| 9197s | the accuracy but take a look here this |
| 9199s | is uh me and Shae getting busy right now |
| 9203s | already at four eliminations actually |
| 9205s | pretty pretty good as far as uh their |
| 9207s | their situation is concerned decent |
| 9209s | material count nice little angle here to |
| 9212s | pick and chose on some |
| 9214s | battles but all in all things are going |
| 9216s | to slow down right now team's just |
| 9217s | trying to wait for the next Zone to |
| 9219s | reveal itself richual and re however not |
| 9221s | stopped pushing through they have |
| 9222s | nothing to lose they're already at the |
| 9224s | top they have more than enough points AC |
| 9225s | crew this weekend to likely take them |
| 9227s | through to week three we'll see how it |
| 9229s | pans out but with a performance like |
| 9233s | this you know it's going to it's going |
| 9235s | to get them a lot of room to work with |
| 9236s | right pressure is |
| 9238s | off it's especially the the materials |
| 9241s | that I'm keeping note of there for re |
| 9243s | and ritual and when you are so far along |
| 9248s | in terms of eliminations acquired ritual |
| 9251s | and reath they don't even have to keep |
| 9253s | challenging in these boxes they don't |
| 9254s | want to they can focus entirely on |
| 9256s | position but they're definitely going to |
| 9258s | have to keep an eye out here because |
| 9259s | it's yzo and it's rise on The High |
| 9262s | Ground Clicks in Epic well try to say |
| 9264s | hello but it's just going to be a a |
| 9266s | quick little dry M and a and a quick |
| 9268s | little reset there for clicks and epic |
| 9270s | as they're now across the way from where |
| 9274s | Y and Rise were just at you can see the |
| 9276s | rest of the lobby clicks trying to break |
| 9278s | out some of those older builds and now |
| 9280s | it's actually clicks and epic with a |
| 9282s | successful challenge for The High Ground |
| 9284s | because they seem to be fully in control |
| 9286s | here yeah definitely works out they |
| 9287s | slide across they put some shots down |
| 9289s | the team left in a scramble and they're |
| 9290s | like dude what just happened two teams |
| 9293s | try to push us give up the positioning |
| 9296s | and that's how it all ends up trading |
| 9298s | out down low though the story of Rich |
| 9301s | recontinue 10 elims here keeping up the |
| 9303s | pace this average |
| 9306s | elimination you know uh consistency and |
| 9309s | placement that they've managed to put |
| 9310s | together has clearly put them up at the |
| 9311s | top of the standings for a reason and |
| 9313s | we're just seeing the start man we've |
| 9315s | really seen this new |
| 9317s | you know re start to uh start to evolve |
| 9319s | here and this could this could be his |
| 9321s | time this could be his season right now |
| 9324s | he's continued to grow and develop as a |
| 9327s | player meanwhile we look away for a |
| 9329s | second and ritual finds an elimination |
| 9335s | there sometimes you got to you got to |
| 9337s | break apart to come back even stronger |
| 9340s | together and that's definitely looking |
| 9342s | like the case here for re and ritual so |
| 9346s | they continue trying to break through |
| 9348s | some of these pre-existing secondary |
| 9350s | height |
| 9351s | builds don't know if rual and re feel |
| 9354s | all that comfortable trying to go for |
| 9356s | the immediate attack onto The High |
| 9357s | Ground Up Against clicks and epic maybe |
| 9359s | waiting for them to expend a little bit |
| 9361s | more of their builds re and ritual they |
| 9363s | seem very confident right now tarping |
| 9365s | through these mid the low ground layers |
| 9368s | yzo and Rise split |
| 9373s | momentarily but still sticking close |
| 9375s | enough that |
| 9377s | look for a follow up with rise if need |
| 9380s | be I respect it ritual re |
| 9384s | here also |
| 9387s | continuing the aggression continuing the |
| 9389s | hustle here another final Zone starting |
| 9393s | to close in with just about 20 players |
| 9395s | alive right now so last time we were in |
| 9398s | this position High Ground came down that |
| 9400s | was Peter B and poo deciding to go for a |
| 9402s | massive elimination |
| 9405s | chain this time time around it's re and |
| 9407s | ritual seemingly are dominating the low |
| 9409s | ground this time it's amzo though who's |
| 9410s | up for serving ritual takes quick care |
| 9414s | of a ritual really cooking right now |
| 9417s | allowing Reed to kind of lead them |
| 9419s | through this end game here re taking the |
| 9421s | igl position here now tur to The High |
| 9424s | Ground ritual looks for epic whale |
| 9425s | doesn't quite find it though it's CLI |
| 9428s | and epic who get the better of the |
| 9429s | exchange |
| 9431s | there but it's clicks who's running |
| 9433s | incredibly low on builds now knows that |
| 9435s | he's just got to be Adam in with the |
| 9437s | pressure as possible same circumstances |
| 9439s | for epic but it's re it's ritual they're |
| 9441s | looking to finally make their attack |
| 9443s | upwards clicks and epic are going to be |
| 9445s | the first to actually drop from that |
| 9448s | height position clicks now forced into |
| 9450s | that secondary height layer and re just |
| 9453s | completely te through epic lone man |
| 9456s | standing there after getting split from |
| 9458s | clicks on that attack clicks did have a |
| 9461s | chance to try and regenerate some of |
| 9463s | those |
| 9464s | Shields has that |
| 9467s | fizber but blueberry Fizz is crazy epic |
| 9470s | gets the knock so he does make the call |
| 9472s | out there click starts to make the play |
| 9473s | there but re with the wall block he |
| 9475s | going to give him the time to go and pop |
| 9476s | the heal here did clicks have enough |
| 9478s | time to set up and possibly start |
| 9480s | healing does not look like it he goes |
| 9482s | down it's going to be arsonic versus re |
| 9484s | here on the heal off and so far arsonic |
| 9487s | definitely has the lead as he still got |
| 9489s | a little bit of the flow to work with |
| 9492s | here and some material potentially to |
| 9493s | work with on the low ground unless Recon |
| 9495s | find something but all in all is going |
| 9497s | to come down to the wire wait a second |
| 9499s | arsonic does it go for the heal instead |
| 9502s | he tries to find new heals and re ends |
| 9504s | up winning just like that he had the |
| 9508s | edge it it just didn't seem like arsenic |
| 9512s | knew where exactly he was sticking |
| 9516s | around that but I I do respect the |
| 9519s | attempt there I kind of recognize the |
| 9520s | fact hey I'm completely out that was my |
| 9522s | last Med kit so now just a a dead Je e |
| 9526s | try and make it somewhere new just did |
| 9529s | not work out in his favor there up |
| 9530s | against re you you see though in the end |
| 9533s | though still a fantastic game for re and |
| 9535s | ritual who pick up 15 eliminations I |
| 9538s | don't believe they're going to get |
| 9539s | rewarded for the last one no tags there |
| 9541s | at the end but a victory out nonetheless |
| 9543s | to continue to solidify the lead here |
| 9545s | Zeke talk to me about the significance |
| 9547s | of this |
| 9550s | run MDF as we've seen from the last of |
| 9554s | the standings a big game like that a |
| 9556s | double elimination game and a victory |
| 9558s | Royale will absolutely catapult un your |
| 9560s | Duo up the leaderboard man 15 |
| 9564s | eliminations out of re what in the world |
| 9567s | are I watching uh well you are watching |
| 9570s | re and witch wichual wichual yeah I |
| 9573s | added a w to his name because this du is |
| 9576s | such a W uh they are the first Duo on na |
| 9581s | today to get three Victory Royal and |
| 9585s | it's so funny cuz I was like look you |
| 9586s | know them Anda they only have two |
| 9588s | Victory Roy they're the only Duos that |
| 9590s | do and then they just go ahead and win |
| 9591s | this game and now they're on three all |
| 9593s | of a sudden but they did it in such |
| 9595s | dominant fashion Kelly I never doubted |
| 9598s | them not for a second I've always been a |
| 9600s | big fan of re and joined by ritual who |
| 9603s | absolutely W Keys it's it's really funny |
| 9605s | actually to see the evolution of these |
| 9607s | players re who used to be the wkey king |
| 9609s | but was too aggressive to a fault so |
| 9611s | that we would not really see him in too |
| 9613s | many Victory Royale situations but over |
| 9616s | the years he's evolved as a player and |
| 9619s | we got to see it earlier on around zone |
| 9621s | 5 where they were in this engagement it |
| 9623s | looked like they had the upper hand but |
| 9625s | it kind of started to fall back for them |
| 9626s | so they themselves took them out of the |
| 9628s | fight regrouped and then were able to |
| 9631s | grab the victory Royale and I feel like |
| 9632s | if this was two years ago Reit would |
| 9634s | have just kept going in and been |
| 9636s | eliminated off of that F to see him move |
| 9639s | forward and now'll be in first place |
| 9642s | with three Victory Royals and 251 |
| 9646s | placement points I'm just proud to see |
| 9648s | it three vrs is absolutely insane I mean |
| 9652s | just again backa what Kelly's saying |
| 9655s | these guys are crazy the evolution is |
| 9657s | there now of course this being a more |
| 9660s | aggressive format Vivid I'm almost |
| 9662s | wondering like hey is this exactly where |
| 9664s | re wants to be or you know once we kind |
| 9666s | of switch back over to normal will we |
| 9668s | kind kind of continue to see this |
| 9670s | performance out of the duo yeah that's |
| 9671s | going to be the big question re and rual |
| 9673s | looking pretty comfortable right now I |
| 9675s | saw another Duo that was looking pretty |
| 9677s | comfortable throughout the game it's |
| 9678s | going to be clicks and epic well gosh |
| 9681s | you know I'm an avid you know clicks |
| 9685s | Watcher you know I'll tune in pretty |
| 9687s | often and you know he'll be playing |
| 9689s | ranked whatever and his Snipes have been |
| 9691s | so good throughout this season but this |
| 9693s | game alone he was hitting some crazy |
| 9695s | shots just incredible to see him carry |
| 9698s | that skill over from like ranked and |
| 9700s | like scrims into an actual fncs Lobby |
| 9703s | which is why they had three eliminations |
| 9705s | coming into this end game and as you can |
| 9706s | see here they kind of LED that so that |
| 9708s | way they could have height but the mats |
| 9710s | they just weren't there even the refresh |
| 9712s | right they they made the right play they |
| 9714s | went for the refresh But ultimately I |
| 9716s | mean when you got ritual and re you know |
| 9717s | getting 10 plus eliminations constantly |
| 9719s | getting refreshes it's hard to compete |
| 9721s | with |
| 9722s | that yeah click epic wh held that high |
| 9725s | ground for a lot of zones but |
| 9727s | unfortunately just got sneaked out by |
| 9728s | ritual and Reit and even able to take |
| 9731s | down ritual so it came down to 1 V one |
| 9733s | but we saw how that ended up we did we |
| 9736s | did now I want to see how this next game |
| 9738s | ends because we have another big one for |
| 9740s | you guys jumping on board with buga and |
| 9749s | aiv the legend himself is here boa |
| 9752s | aiv this time in just a a a great |
| 9755s | position here on the edge of the zone |
| 9757s | right now the last time we saw them they |
| 9758s | were deep in the storm trying to |
| 9760s | strategy that didn't seem to work out |
| 9762s | for them so now taking their learnings |
| 9764s | and saying all right let's get in |
| 9766s | position |
| 9768s | sooner it's looking good for them right |
| 9773s | now but again buga and |
| 9777s | aiv we just talked about the fact that |
| 9779s | Reed and ritual are going to be Na's |
| 9781s | first team to collect three Victor |
| 9783s | Royals matching that of what we saw from |
| 9787s | year up today but on that pacing maybe |
| 9791s | it'll be boa and aiv that can also be |
| 9793s | the second team from na to collect three |
| 9796s | Victor |
| 9797s | royals here in this fourth round but |
| 9801s | it's definitely not going to be an easy |
| 9803s | Lobby to do that in especially when you |
| 9805s | see the likes of cold and acorn lurking |
| 9808s | nearby with 11 eims already into to that |
| 9812s | is just Insanity coming out of cold and |
| 9815s | acorn these guys love their double digit |
| 9818s | elimination games and it's almost like |
| 9820s | cold will kind of just test the waters |
| 9823s | and he's kind of just gauging okay how |
| 9825s | much can I actually key in a Lobby and |
| 9828s | when the man is already rocking a limbs |
| 9831s | still feeling confident enough to go for |
| 9833s | a nth just completely tagging Virgo |
| 9837s | finishing off what Acorn had started not |
| 9839s | even letting that man grapple blade |
| 9841s | forward it's just impressive tracking on |
| 9844s | Cold's end and again just an absurd |
| 9848s | amount of eliminations this early on |
| 9850s | look at duk and threats here though I |
| 9852s | wonder where are they understanding all |
| 9854s | in all Taco you should give us a quick |
| 9856s | search here I know we wanted to |
| 9858s | highlight them wanted to no put them on |
| 9859s | the spotlight as a team to look out for |
| 9862s | in this type of Lobby we would think |
| 9863s | they perform pretty well Duke again no |
| 9866s | strangers to taken fights and honestly |
| 9869s | coming out on the better side of it does |
| 9871s | seem to favor his play style but jump |
| 9873s | Asian Jeff and Oliver OG also finding |
| 9876s | their strides of success here looking |
| 9878s | pretty dominant right now at four |
| 9880s | eliminations but the loot tells a |
| 9883s | different story no sniper ammo grapple |
| 9886s | blade running low on charges and the |
| 9888s | material count also starting to dwindle |
| 9891s | here so seems like a few fights probably |
| 9893s | dragged out here towards the mid game |
| 9896s | and they can't find a refresh going to |
| 9897s | be a tough end game but back to C and |
| 9899s | acorn |
| 9901s | Taco yeah it just seems like these guys |
| 9903s | are like Captain refresh at this point |
| 9906s | cold just looking to see if he can make |
| 9909s | that elimination count go up any higher |
| 9912s | and well if these Duo surrounding them |
| 9914s | aren't careful they might find |
| 9916s | themselves as a cold and acorn's next |
| 9919s | victims while we have cold kind of |
| 9921s | sitting nearby just to touch base on |
| 9923s | that dukes and threats they were in 29 |
| 9926s | so still on top 30 all things considered |
| 9929s | been seeing them have a pretty strong |
| 9931s | run through the Open qualifier so far so |
| 9934s | this fourth |
| 9936s | round maybe catch them up a little bit |
| 9938s | but they're not the only ones that have |
| 9941s | been trying to play catch up on the day |
| 9944s | Yi and ver saw them with second place |
| 9946s | finish earlier on but you know that they |
| 9949s | want that Victor Royale really clean |
| 9952s | knock there from Yi as well just an |
| 9954s | excellent punish and that's the dangers |
| 9956s | of also trying to take those over Peaks |
| 9959s | you stick your head out a little bit too |
| 9960s | long someone's bound to take advantage |
| 9962s | of it right off the edge they go into |
| 9965s | the new Zone here |
| 9966s | so refresh picked up puts them in a |
| 9969s | position here but they're not not the |
| 9971s | most comfortable teams nearby this would |
| 9972s | be a great fight for them to finish up |
| 9975s | if they can blows in on it shots coming |
| 9976s | from up above they're tagging from down |
| 9979s | low here comes the counter |
| 9983s | push all in all though still in control |
| 9985s | of this entire situation here 19 below |
| 9988s | the surge though now so can see why |
| 9991s | they're trying to force the issue right |
| 9996s | now options in front of them TK here to |
| 9999s | the side [ __ ] and flexi off to the left |
| 10003s | no easy decisions no easy p pickup these |
| 10005s | are both experienced |
| 10009s | players it's almost like you don't want |
| 10011s | to get too desperate because if you |
| 10013s | start to panic break through builds |
| 10016s | other teams can tell they can notice |
| 10019s | when a team is being way too aggressive |
| 10021s | with trying to break through some of |
| 10022s | their builds you just know okay those |
| 10024s | guys are definitely below the damage |
| 10026s | threshold we just need to sit tight and |
| 10030s | Yumi shield crack can definitely be |
| 10033s | heard by anybody that's close by you can |
| 10036s | kind of tell with chenita sort of just |
| 10039s | like looking around looking upwards |
| 10041s | again hearing these shields get broken |
| 10044s | by that surge damage still 32 below here |
| 10048s | and now Yumi vert with only one small |
| 10051s | Shield potion having been forcibly |
| 10053s | expended here the shield potion itself |
| 10056s | is going to be utilized as well but just |
| 10058s | so much |
| 10060s | sustain being lost right now for yui and |
| 10063s | vert in order just to try stay alive and |
| 10066s | that number is only increasing as far as |
| 10069s | that damage special is concerned they |
| 10070s | are still well below where they need to |
| 10072s | be having jump from just double digits |
| 10075s | to now triples 236 |
| 10078s | below and the fact they're still trying |
| 10080s | to Grapple blade forward still trying to |
| 10082s | find positioning but vert just getting |
| 10084s | pieced Up Down Below went one layer too |
| 10088s | far but Yi will manage to back him up in |
| 10092s | time for some Revenge |
| 10093s | here but Yi he's just barely holding on |
| 10097s | at this point NBF yeah it was |
| 10098s | unfortunate had he not gotten tagged |
| 10100s | there and he still had the shield he |
| 10101s | would have actually been a pretty okay |
| 10102s | situation to balance back I do respect |
| 10105s | the um the awareness to you know realize |
| 10108s | hey look there's only three players |
| 10110s | right we're we're just you know a Duo of |
| 10113s | three players though that just have to |
| 10116s | fall they try to go and you know heal |
| 10118s | their way through it and to to some |
| 10120s | degree it works out but you could see in |
| 10122s | the end though was the one fight that |
| 10124s | didn't go there their way on the other |
| 10126s | side though cold left by himself once |
| 10129s | again here doesn't seem to be a trend |
| 10131s | and also still leading with eliminations |
| 10134s | also just trending the way we've kind of |
| 10137s | seen him play today in general so cold |
| 10140s | really has uh find found his Mark today |
| 10142s | man all all in all he's been playing |
| 10144s | very very well consistent all the day |
| 10146s | and acorn's got to be happy that he's |
| 10148s | got himself a solid duo in cold right |
| 10150s | now but more importantly a cold that's |
| 10152s | fired up just look at him go right here |
| 10154s | J B is going to go down another |
| 10156s | elimination falls to the hands of cold |
| 10157s | here he picks up the mat this time not |
| 10159s | leaving those behind and he gets |
| 10161s | rewarded that's going to be a lot of |
| 10163s | Shield here meanwhile bacon and TK also |
| 10165s | getting |
| 10166s | active but bacon immediately turns the |
| 10170s | wrong Corner gets taken out just like |
| 10173s | that now it's going to be TK left to try |
| 10175s | and solo clutch breaks down the ramp for |
| 10178s | a moment and just in the nick of time |
| 10180s | will find me it doesn't get a chance to |
| 10182s | pick it up though no he's going to be |
| 10184s | just outside |
| 10186s | that storm Zone damage oh my go so |
| 10191s | problematic this is a Master Class by |
| 10193s | Cole as far as how to collect |
| 10194s | eliminations is concerned it's just too |
| 10196s | easy too easy for him right now this |
| 10199s | Lobby not not up to stuff for for cold |
| 10202s | by any means you got duk and threats on |
| 10204s | High Ground you have Booga on the back |
| 10206s | side of Zone but C's like listen I don't |
| 10207s | I don't care about none of that he still |
| 10208s | walks out of there were 13 eliminations |
| 10210s | before Finally Falling here meanwhile |
| 10212s | Viva one of the few Duos still in the |
| 10216s | running right now a lot of solos in the |
| 10217s | mix here Duke and threat start to work |
| 10220s | their way down inching his way across |
| 10223s | here Duke is out of material now does |
| 10225s | have to be careful still under the the |
| 10227s | effects of the flber there you can see |
| 10228s | him bouncing |
| 10230s | around even Booga start to turn their |
| 10232s | focus up top box the player up don't |
| 10234s | even go for the edit though they let the |
| 10235s | Zone cook him for a second before get in |
| 10238s | the finish it seems |
| 10240s | like and this is a tough spot to be in |
| 10243s | for a he wants the fight but he doesn't |
| 10246s | want to over push it because he does |
| 10248s | have all these Med kits he knows that a |
| 10250s | second place at least is available |
| 10253s | here finally now du thre starts to come |
| 10256s | down here win condition not available |
| 10258s | they go for the fighta gets traded out |
| 10261s | and it will be a one-on-one of waiting |
| 10263s | here trying to heal up threats is going |
| 10265s | to fall mind you there is no siphon it |
| 10267s | will come down to the final push does |
| 10270s | have more Med kits however Duke knows |
| 10272s | what wall he's in he goes right in for |
| 10274s | it one tag but no it's a who gets it in |
| 10277s | the end |
| 10278s | there and what a finish as well the fact |
| 10282s | that it comes down toga and a v boa |
| 10285s | essentially going up against two players |
| 10288s | that he's teamed with in the past but I |
| 10291s | mean at the same time V is doing a great |
| 10293s | job at staying inside that cone knew |
| 10296s | that he was safe from the likes of dukes |
| 10298s | and threats but a solid attempt |
| 10301s | nonetheless from dke threats on that one |
| 10304s | I just want to say also the game sense |
| 10305s | right to keep cool for Aviv like just |
| 10307s | knowing like dude you got to shoot this |
| 10309s | this you know wall like 12 times before |
| 10311s | it's going to break look he just Waits |
| 10312s | it out like he knows how long how how |
| 10316s | sturdy it is and the Damage it's going |
| 10317s | to take to get through it so if Evena |
| 10319s | WRA that one up and that's going to jump |
| 10320s | them right back into the conversation |
| 10324s | Zeke you know Monster at this point I |
| 10326s | got to ask myself did they ever leave |
| 10329s | the conversation right I mean obviously |
| 10332s | we had eyes on Booga we had eyes on aiv |
| 10334s | and what I love about this moment is |
| 10336s | that buga goes down right it's all on |
| 10338s | the shoulders of a and what better way |
| 10340s | to sayga you made the right choice and |
| 10343s | duoing with me then closing out that |
| 10346s | game and getting themselves the victory |
| 10348s | Royale aiv I like it you put a period on |
| 10351s | it that's what I'm here to see I Lov |
| 10353s | that from Aviv you know this got to a |
| 10356s | point where yeah boa and aiv were both |
| 10358s | alive they could have went into a 2v2 |
| 10360s | situation picked up another elimination |
| 10362s | but if you look at aviv's HP throughout |
| 10364s | this end game you can see that he's near |
| 10366s | 100 right and the heal off is about to |
| 10368s | come through and instead of taking any |
| 10370s | crazy edits he protects himself makes |
| 10372s | sure that he doesn't take any damage so |
| 10373s | that way he can actually play for that |
| 10375s | heal off so I love to see that restraint |
| 10378s | out of aiv played it so well got the med |
| 10380s | kits off just had to hit the shot in the |
| 10382s | end and he did just |
| 10384s | that yeah I mean Duke and threats did a |
| 10387s | great job but to go up against a in that |
| 10389s | situation where he had four medkits and |
| 10392s | they I think that they knew that he had |
| 10393s | the heal off potential so going for the |
| 10395s | elimination but then you have the myth |
| 10397s | Mythic hyper SMG on the other side of |
| 10399s | that cone and there's no situation where |
| 10402s | you're going to win |
| 10403s | that fantastic stuff I'm I'm enjoying |
| 10406s | this so much I'm just trying to take in |
| 10408s | everything that I've seen as so far |
| 10410s | still have a handful of games left to go |
| 10413s | if you're just tuning in what's going on |
| 10414s | it is this is the fnts this is na we've |
| 10417s | got a ton of different lobbies all |
| 10418s | happening the same time and we're just |
| 10419s | jumping into the action we're just |
| 10420s | seeing what's going on and trying to |
| 10422s | make any kind of sense of it so so far |
| 10425s | though we've seen a handful of Antion |
| 10426s | out of this game some really big |
| 10428s | highlight moments has anything stood out |
| 10430s | to you guys out of this next game yeah |
| 10432s | Hey listen we got to see Duke and |
| 10433s | threats in that same exact game as well |
| 10436s | saw them on The High Ground for a little |
| 10438s | bit throughout that as well gosh some of |
| 10441s | these lobbies just end up being so |
| 10442s | stacked and wow Duke just ends up in the |
| 10445s | same box as Oliver OG there and gets the |
| 10447s | jump so kind of Lucky when it comes to |
| 10449s | getting that refresh right there and |
| 10450s | they just carried that throughout you |
| 10452s | can see them just switching so many plac |
| 10454s | off they were on the low ground all of a |
| 10456s | sudden they're up on The High Ground but |
| 10458s | look at the mats not enough to play that |
| 10461s | one out so they had to jump down and |
| 10462s | take those flights that we already saw |
| 10464s | happen I love to say that half of |
| 10467s | Esports is a story and what a story we |
| 10469s | got to see between threats Duke and |
| 10471s | Booga and we heard Taco talk about it |
| 10474s | having his two old du mates join |
| 10477s | together or old teammates and then going |
| 10479s | up against his new teammate in aiv and I |
| 10483s | that just I love these kind I don't I |
| 10484s | want I don't want to say a rivalry but |
| 10486s | it's just interesting fortnite's one of |
| 10488s | the only games where you kind of see |
| 10490s | this amount of like partner switching |
| 10494s | and the effects that it has on the scene |
| 10497s | I think rivalry is a fair word I think I |
| 10499s | think that's a fair word you so you |
| 10501s | think you think Duke and threat just |
| 10503s | were going up against Bo right there and |
| 10504s | Bo was like yeah take that guys or like |
| 10506s | something like |
| 10509s | that yes yes I do I in fact that is |
| 10513s | exact I I was listening into their |
| 10515s | that was word for what they said yeah so |
| 10517s | yeah I would say this I'm not trying to |
| 10519s | start I'm just kidding everybody I'm |
| 10520s | herey to make jokes uh we take a look at |
| 10522s | the standings here ritual and re though |
| 10525s | currently sitting still in that number |
| 10527s | one spot and for a even boa remember |
| 10530s | there was that one moment that one |
| 10532s | moment where they they were down in that |
| 10534s | 37th Place since then though they have |
| 10536s | not dropped out of the top 10 they've |
| 10538s | been holding strong they are definitely |
| 10540s | trying to let everyone else know Hey |
| 10541s | listen if you guys are trying to make a |
| 10542s | run for Grand finals we will absolutely |
| 10545s | be a door you have to walk through and |
| 10547s | good luck but in third place as well |
| 10549s | Peter B and poo man there's just so many |
| 10552s | names and I love the the kind of dynamic |
| 10554s | of jumping into a game being like Oh |
| 10555s | yeah we saw those guys and and a couple |
| 10557s | games ago they were up against these |
| 10559s | guys well this time they're up against |
| 10560s | these guys in the situation is this like |
| 10562s | it's just such a dynamic flow I think |
| 10565s | the coolest thing there is that we've |
| 10566s | already mentioned two teams finding |
| 10568s | themselves on three Victory Royals but |
| 10570s | the difference in how they have so many |
| 10572s | points right ritual and re being way |
| 10574s | more consistent way more placement |
| 10575s | points but then buga and aiv having way |
| 10578s | more eliminations that Dynamic that kind |
| 10580s | of battle for who's going to end up with |
| 10582s | the most Victory Royale in the day it'll |
| 10584s | be cool to watch that play |
| 10586s | out absolutely you heard the bus it's |
| 10588s | time to get back into the action we've |
| 10590s | got Cooper Miro standing by as well as |
| 10592s | our casters MDF and |
| 10597s | taco let's get right back into the |
| 10600s | action here and there's no better world |
| 10602s | to be in than Cooper the mindset of the |
| 10606s | young Champion coming right out of the |
| 10608s | globals they've been off to a very hot |
| 10610s | start picking up where they left off and |
| 10612s | lovely to see them continuing to you |
| 10614s | know work hand in hand here see what |
| 10616s | they can do here for this first major of |
| 10618s | the |
| 10619s | fncs already on the move here must have |
| 10621s | heard the reboot van go up off Aaron oh |
| 10624s | no look playing for the cache though |
| 10627s | instead what we think |
| 10629s | Taco I think Cooper and Miro are the |
| 10633s | last two people I would want to see |
| 10636s | challenging me for a cash claim and it |
| 10640s | does look as though they've managed to |
| 10642s | successfully scare off the other Duo |
| 10645s | that was contemplating going for this |
| 10647s | cash that that's a big swing of |
| 10652s | confidence if you're curo I mean it's |
| 10654s | not something I would expect those two |
| 10655s | to ever |
| 10656s | lack but something that is lacking right |
| 10659s | now for chimp is having his teammate in |
| 10663s | general sire's going to get picked off |
| 10666s | here and chimp forced to try and |
| 10668s | reposition himself could potentially be |
| 10670s | trying to make a play for the reboot |
| 10672s | card I mean it's definitely still early |
| 10673s | on enough that chimp could certainly |
| 10676s | look for a a gap here but it all depends |
| 10681s | I mean fortunately for us we're going to |
| 10683s | get a second chance to look back at what |
| 10686s | went wrong there for chimp and CS as far |
| 10690s | as as well as what went so right here |
| 10692s | for psycho and parks there it is it's |
| 10695s | just that simple really nasty shots with |
| 10698s | the sniper yeah yeah it's just a body |
| 10700s | tag too right 116 puts him down so he |
| 10703s | was already very very H possibly engaged |
| 10706s | on right before that |
| 10708s | so yeah chimp having a a bit of a tough |
| 10711s | time in the mid games we've seen him |
| 10713s | round after round more or less not |
| 10715s | looking strong as he's been approaching |
| 10717s | these end games and that's why we |
| 10718s | haven't seen him quite pull with the big |
| 10720s | victory Royale but he's had a fair |
| 10722s | amount of end games this time it's going |
| 10724s | to be the first first one for him to run |
| 10725s | it solo for Victor and blizzard SE a |
| 10727s | fair amount of battles come out of them |
| 10729s | as well it's managed to keep them in the |
| 10731s | conversation here this is the beauty of |
| 10734s | this type of format really get to see |
| 10736s | and focus in on tons of new players |
| 10738s | players that you might be familiar with |
| 10739s | that you might have seen in the past |
| 10741s | like golden like ozone get no strangers |
| 10744s | to fncs by any means but for the first |
| 10747s | time it's almost like you get to put a |
| 10749s | big Spotlight to see what these teams |
| 10751s | are capable of right now it's pretty |
| 10753s | good for Z in Golden like to see it at |
| 10756s | three eliminations |
| 10757s | here but see at times there could also |
| 10760s | be |
| 10761s | drawback at least for some players in |
| 10764s | this style of format chimp I'll touch |
| 10767s | more on it in a moment want to see if he |
| 10769s | can manage to avade bolts just a little |
| 10773s | bit longer but no that's going to cut |
| 10776s | chimp's Lobby run short here Booga bolts |
| 10779s | managing to find that collapse with |
| 10782s | Master nappy there and kind of to a |
| 10785s | library and what I was trying to say |
| 10786s | there MDF it's that with this format if |
| 10788s | you are making it into the end games |
| 10791s | consistently the big thing is to get end |
| 10793s | games with good placement because if |
| 10796s | you're just constantly tagging these end |
| 10798s | games but you're just fluctuating |
| 10799s | somewhere between 15th through 30th |
| 10802s | you're really not collecting some of |
| 10805s | those placement points and it might |
| 10807s | force you to be a little bit more |
| 10808s | dependent than on elimination counts and |
| 10810s | I think that even for some of our |
| 10813s | experienced teams and play here could |
| 10815s | potentially be |
| 10816s | struggling with the likes of just |
| 10818s | finding that consistency in placing |
| 10820s | because of the fact it's not set lobbies |
| 10823s | yeah definitely it becomes uh it becomes |
| 10824s | a difficult task to make it past the mid |
| 10826s | games when there's so much um you know |
| 10829s | variation going round to round never |
| 10832s | really know who's on your path who's at |
| 10834s | your draw spot who's you know um |
| 10836s | neighboring nearby possibly forced out |
| 10838s | sooner than you would have expected |
| 10839s | right those are the inconsistencies that |
| 10841s | are going to come game after game and |
| 10843s | more importantly the challenge that |
| 10844s | you're going to face as a player Dan and |
| 10846s | Redux taking their time here but this |
| 10848s | spot they're putting themselves in it's |
| 10850s | going to be a world of trouble it's |
| 10851s | below Meo and Cooper so should they |
| 10853s | decide they want to get fritzy cuz they |
| 10856s | can might be the first team that they |
| 10858s | get jumped on there meanwhile on High |
| 10862s | Ground another Bots here it's |
| 10866s | zuk at 16th Place so far so looking |
| 10869s | pretty good for uh Usain boats and zuk's |
| 10871s | here we like it 21 points very much in |
| 10875s | the conversation very much in the game |
| 10878s | right now a big round here put him in |
| 10880s | the top 10 |
| 10882s | taco and top 10 is definitely a pretty |
| 10887s | favorable spot to be as far as just |
| 10889s | making sure that other teams will take |
| 10891s | notice of who you are because again with |
| 10894s | 250 Duos having qual to be in this |
| 10898s | contention for our first week of |
| 10901s | competition MDF that's no easy feat by |
| 10903s | any |
| 10904s | means but more importantly again for |
| 10907s | these players that are really just |
| 10908s | trying to cement themselves as like true |
| 10912s | competitive contenders you know you've |
| 10913s | got like the t1s and the t2s I think a |
| 10916s | good amount of our T1 |
| 10918s | Pros would definitely kind of be given |
| 10921s | you know a little bit of a side eye to |
| 10923s | some of these newcomers and that's |
| 10925s | really where it comes down to you might |
| 10927s | not have the same level of experience |
| 10928s | but a lot of these players got here just |
| 10931s | from trusting their own instincts and |
| 10933s | just taking some guts your calls that |
| 10936s | just happen to pan out for them because |
| 10938s | not everybody expects you to just go for |
| 10941s | a heavy risk verse reward |
| 10944s | play well we'll see how it plays out |
| 10946s | here it's all risk versus reward here |
| 10949s | but right now we've tuned in just early |
| 10951s | enough that we can see teams taking it |
| 10953s | nice and easy holding down the fort |
| 10955s | holding down the positions here waiting |
| 10959s | for the time to pass by look at the map |
| 10961s | there it's just showing everyone on the |
| 10963s | move here so |
| 10965s | this is a a much lighter lobby as well |
| 10968s | as this Lobby has been heed down pretty |
| 10970s | pretty aggressively it seems but look |
| 10972s | even even SK and and walty here don't |
| 10974s | want to make a move just yet they see |
| 10976s | there's a team next |
| 10980s | door same can't be said though day |
| 10984s | Redux under just a little bit too much |
| 10986s | pressure here and Redux going to do what |
| 10989s | he can it's going to be |
| 10990s | Dorito actually with his Duo B looking |
| 10994s | to try and Chase down Redux Redux not |
| 10996s | even get an opportunity to utilize that |
| 10998s | Med kit the way he would have liked |
| 11000s | hoping to find that Max Hammer Pump fire |
| 11003s | shot but don't know if he's going to be |
| 11006s | able to collect it just yet Belmar with |
| 11008s | so much of a Health Advantage just |
| 11011s | looking to try and Chase down Redux |
| 11014s | entirely and that's just so unfortunate |
| 11017s | there Redux will finally find an |
| 11019s | opportunity to utilize that medkit but |
| 11022s | it won't mean much monster he's going to |
| 11024s | have to try and play out the rest of |
| 11026s | this lobby as a solo don't think he's |
| 11028s | going to be able to even find enough |
| 11029s | time to try and get day with his reboot |
| 11032s | card to even look for that sort of dual |
| 11036s | comeback |
| 11037s | opportunity and again this might be one |
| 11039s | of those instances too when you think |
| 11041s | about the the lobby count as well and |
| 11043s | all the different rounds that are taking |
| 11044s | place here MDF Redux is a solo he could |
| 11048s | potentially look to just maybe go next |
| 11051s | see if he can catch a final Lobby that |
| 11053s | might be taking |
| 11055s | Place yeah you know and it just makes |
| 11057s | you wonder right what went wrong I I |
| 11059s | called it I'm like yo parking underneath |
| 11060s | Cooper miral is uh little do you know a |
| 11063s | little bit dangerous even if they just |
| 11065s | decid to turn and and you know laser the |
| 11067s | boxes right they were just out there |
| 11069s | positioned so openly they broke the tree |
| 11071s | that was the one little bit of cover |
| 11072s | that could have you know gave them some |
| 11074s | privacy down in that that little uh you |
| 11076s | know crevice by the mountain but here we |
| 11078s | are back with Cooper back with Mr Auto |
| 11082s | only trying to see what kind of they can |
| 11084s | get themselves involved in right on the |
| 11086s | edge Zone here playing it on the low |
| 11089s | side not necessarily the most favorable |
| 11091s | spot to be in as this is a very steep |
| 11093s | Mountain to the north |
| 11095s | there but all in all they're still in |
| 11099s | the top 50 very comfortably on the |
| 11101s | leaderboard here so while they they may |
| 11103s | not be playing as insanely or as |
| 11106s | consistently as we've seen from the re |
| 11108s | and the rituals Acorn and CS but they're |
| 11110s | in the combo they're in the they're in |
| 11112s | the game right here one win can change |
| 11114s | everything for them here's gogin and |
| 11116s | Sher now on a little bit more of a that |
| 11120s | similar situation here right in the |
| 11122s | center of the uh the |
| 11124s | conversation yeah a team that we haven't |
| 11126s | really had much chance to get focus on |
| 11132s | but watching them now just boxed up like |
| 11136s | you would expect most teams to be at at |
| 11138s | this point of the match big box fights |
| 11142s | though taking place |
| 11145s | north of the Hillside and just like that |
| 11149s | Chien and his Duo immediately eliminated |
| 11153s | so many teams just stuck in a little bit |
| 11157s | of the Zone congestion here on the edge |
| 11160s | walrus War |
| 11162s | height a lot of materials kind of |
| 11165s | falling to the Wayside you can see that |
| 11166s | immediate materials refresh there for |
| 11169s | war height definitely got to be feeling |
| 11171s | pretty happy about that one and they've |
| 11173s | C been duking it out to have those four |
| 11176s | eliminations and kind of just reaping |
| 11178s | the benefits of that |
| 11182s | aggression see it though we jump back in |
| 11184s | with Victor and blizzard |
| 11185s | here looking pretty clean so far in this |
| 11189s | game here but the material does seem to |
| 11192s | be cut in half from right about where |
| 11194s | they want to be at but the ammo count |
| 11195s | looking good heals looking pretty solid |
| 11197s | zones right in front of them so plenty |
| 11199s | to play for Cooper gets punished there |
| 11201s | for opening up the edit and now it's up |
| 11202s | to Miro here save should be possible he |
| 11205s | does have plenty of metal to work with |
| 11207s | yep here it |
| 11208s | is got to be careful |
| 11213s | though still tough though because now |
| 11217s | again just valuable heals and resources |
| 11220s | having to be expended there for Cooper |
| 11222s | having been punished for trying to find |
| 11225s | some damage or even a knocker possible |
| 11227s | elimination there but at the same time |
| 11231s | it is Meo it is Cooper so I could |
| 11234s | definitely expect a 180 at any given |
| 11236s | moment whenever this Duo is essentially |
| 11241s | in the playing field |
| 11243s | here it's going to be a move forward now |
| 11246s | miror ready not waste any more time gets |
| 11249s | around the tree drops the low ground |
| 11252s | immediately boxes up and might have a |
| 11255s | good chance now to maybe catch some |
| 11256s | teams off guard they're able to tarp out |
| 11257s | far enough but does seem as though |
| 11259s | they're wary about some of those teams |
| 11261s | that might be on the hillside behind |
| 11262s | them |
| 11266s | seeing boats shots coming in here he's |
| 11268s | got to play defensively didn't even get |
| 11270s | to get the full heal off and instead |
| 11272s | he's going to go for the double heal |
| 11273s | meanwhile on High Ground the second time |
| 11275s | we've seen Dorito and Belmar trying to |
| 11277s | play for High Ground so we're seeing a a |
| 11279s | little bit of consistency come out of |
| 11280s | this team I can respect that they |
| 11282s | weren't success uh successful the last |
| 11284s | time they were up here but this time |
| 11285s | they do have five eliminations and a |
| 11287s | pretty decent stronghold so we could be |
| 11289s | seeing the development of a new team |
| 11292s | that wants to be one of those teams |
| 11295s | recognized for their High Ground |
| 11297s | positioning their High Ground attempts |
| 11299s | it's always an exciting type of play |
| 11301s | Down finals |
| 11303s | lobbies give it a second though team |
| 11305s | below |
| 11306s | them it's pars he gets pushed back now |
| 11310s | Belmar and Dorito have a little bit of |
| 11312s | room to work with this is going right |
| 11314s | off the cliff though this is plenty of |
| 11317s | space there got to be careful another |
| 11319s | pretty crazy tarp out though from Belmar |
| 11322s | and Dorito |
| 11324s | they are just trying to make a a full |
| 11326s | extension up on that high ground and |
| 11329s | whether or not they'll be challenged |
| 11331s | remains to be questioned but these teams |
| 11334s | are kind of stuck in these secondary Hy |
| 11337s | mid-ground layers seem to be the most |
| 11341s | oppressed right now cuz Belmar and |
| 11343s | Dorito you can see those shots raining |
| 11345s | down from above here onto swag the go |
| 11348s | box you bolt though unsuccessful grapple |
| 11351s | blade trying to get the mantle I think |
| 11352s | to try and challenge in that box but |
| 11354s | instead we'll look to disc |
| 11357s | continue seeing if he can try and push |
| 11359s | forward these midg ground layers some |
| 11361s | decent connections onto Neco bolts and |
| 11364s | that's going to be us bolt sign to just |
| 11367s | go he needs to keep pressing forward |
| 11371s | stay moving alongside with the zones but |
| 11375s | now with the damage threshold coming in |
| 11378s | potentially being saved by other teams |
| 11380s | getting elmed just that immediate surge |
| 11383s | upward |
| 11384s | in that damage |
| 11387s | threshold that's right numbers are going |
| 11389s | to jump here golden left as solo right |
| 11392s | now look at all the HP bars cut in half |
| 11396s | the surge has done its work the storm's |
| 11398s | done its work this weird terrain making |
| 11400s | it difficult this is going to be |
| 11402s | a pretty ridiculous end game right now |
| 11405s | 27 players still alive right here Miron |
| 11409s | Cooper back in the running here for |
| 11410s | elims and have a chance for some endgame |
| 11412s | placement points that they just can stay |
| 11414s | alive a little longer they do have a |
| 11416s | little bit more mats to work with them |
| 11418s | most Lobby High Ground has had their |
| 11421s | fair share of troubles as well as it |
| 11422s | changes hands War Heights and epic |
| 11426s | walrus coming and the inspiration there |
| 11429s | is laughable but see here he's going to |
| 11432s | jump on down and Yep they're going to |
| 11434s | continue to maintain this position |
| 11438s | here height though still being a little |
| 11440s | bit juggled back and forth I would say |
| 11443s | but might have finally been truly |
| 11444s | established there by epicus and War |
| 11446s | height is |
| 11448s | now not only from below Cooper as well |
| 11452s | striking through different player floors |
| 11455s | just when they least suspect it you've |
| 11458s | got to |
| 11459s | stay really aware at this point and it's |
| 11462s | just so difficult though when the edits |
| 11464s | are constantly being broken all around |
| 11465s | you floors being placed Every Which Way |
| 11468s | alongside of walls it's really easy to |
| 11471s | lose track of who's where |
| 11474s | and that's where I think a lot of |
| 11475s | experience comes through for Meo |
| 11477s | specifically he's doing such a great job |
| 11479s | at leading Cooper through some of this m |
| 11481s | ground but the zone is so unforgiving |
| 11483s | right now for Shaner the way that it's |
| 11485s | pulling back over this elevation just |
| 11488s | merciless to all these teams that were |
| 11491s | caught in the mid and low ground layers |
| 11492s | they're having so much difficulty with |
| 11494s | just trying to get back towards that |
| 11496s | elevation well let's watch it here |
| 11498s | Cooper he now by himself so picked |
| 11501s | up now left to f for it's Miro |
| 11504s | completely out to no he falls no points |
| 11506s | picked up in the process either but it |
| 11508s | is still a top five solidified |
| 11511s | there now we move into it Waller is |
| 11515s | trying to make an aim for himself here |
| 11516s | see what he can do heals are going to |
| 11518s | come out it's going to set him up for |
| 11519s | Success he does have three floppers |
| 11522s | so oh no he falls with them no this is a |
| 11526s | problem here so you can see a little bit |
| 11527s | of that an experience coming in and |
| 11530s | doesn't matter though they do end up |
| 11532s | closing out as they blows out strong |
| 11534s | there and hit the shots when it does |
| 11535s | matter so ggs for them taking a big win |
| 11539s | yeah excellent challenge for height up |
| 11542s | against Belmar and his Duo Dorito and it |
| 11545s | just did not pan out for Belmar and |
| 11547s | Dorito the way they were hoping but for |
| 11549s | warart and epic walus I mean again it's |
| 11553s | just players that you might not |
| 11555s | necessarily anticipate to look for those |
| 11557s | High Ground challenges I think they did |
| 11558s | a really good job at just effectively |
| 11561s | keeping those low lower layer so |
| 11564s | punished so restricted in their |
| 11565s | movements until they decided it was a |
| 11567s | good time to drop to just look for the |
| 11569s | cleanup |
| 11571s | components well there you have it it's |
| 11573s | all said and done epic walrus and warh |
| 11576s | high take a win and that's a first for |
| 11578s | them here on the main stage Zeke what |
| 11579s | you got for |
| 11581s | me you know MDF we're coming down to the |
| 11584s | last couple of matches here on the day |
| 11587s | in a big victory roale remember with you |
| 11589s | pair that with eliminations you canare |
| 11591s | that with good placement you could find |
| 11593s | s up in that top 250 this is the fnts |
| 11596s | this is Na and guess what we're playing |
| 11598s | a ton of games we got a bunch of lobbies |
| 11601s | all happen at the same time and after |
| 11603s | two weeks we're going to take the top |
| 11604s | 250 best Duos and they will move on to |
| 11607s | semi-finals for walrus for war height |
| 11609s | they're looking to make sure they can |
| 11611s | find themselves in a good placement |
| 11612s | especially after this first week that |
| 11614s | going into week number two they will B |
| 11616s | basically be able to hit the ground |
| 11618s | running as we start to kind of wind down |
| 11620s | here friends I kind of wanted to get |
| 11621s | your thoughts on this game and so far |
| 11623s | how you kind of been enjoying the day I |
| 11625s | mean Hey listen this game was actually |
| 11627s | huge for walrus and Co there because |
| 11630s | that game right there you can see total |
| 11633s | after that their total points after that |
| 11634s | was |
| 11635s | 185 which means that that game was |
| 11638s | absolutely massive for them the SW the |
| 11640s | swing right there was huge I think that |
| 11641s | puts them into the top 50 actually so |
| 11644s | that is really really |
| 11646s | good yeah right now for these teams that |
| 11649s | might not be getting into that top 10 |
| 11650s | position because so many games have |
| 11652s | already been played they are just trying |
| 11654s | to collect as many points as they can to |
| 11656s | help their overall points leading into |
| 11658s | the semifinal speaking of overall points |
| 11660s | though ritual and Reed definitely got a |
| 11662s | few more points after their fourth |
| 11665s | Victory Royale Zeke did you say fourth |
| 11669s | Victory Royale what the heck |
| 11672s | 432 points read ritual this is just week |
| 11677s | one save some for week two oh my gosh |
| 11681s | four Victory out guys especially under |
| 11685s | this like type of format where it's |
| 11687s | extremely chaotic if that doesn't say |
| 11690s | consistency I don't know what else could |
| 11693s | uh yeah I mean they are definitely |
| 11694s | popping off I was I was wondering who |
| 11697s | was going to end up with the most vrs I |
| 11699s | guess it's in re and ritualist hands now |
| 11701s | not entirely surea and aiv would be able |
| 11703s | to catch up we'll have to see man I want |
| 11706s | to talk so much more but you heard the |
| 11707s | bus we're getting back into the action |
| 11710s | rise yamu we're jumping with them so s |
| 11712s | on over to the |
| 11717s | casters Ros Yo's definitely given us a |
| 11720s | show today this time much different |
| 11723s | Lobby in the distance you see a little |
| 11724s | bit of djen and lson there too so here |
| 11727s | to mix it up reminder if you are just |
| 11729s | tuning in and watching this qualifier |
| 11731s | weekend number one for the first time |
| 11733s | here in the fncs there's a lot going on |
| 11736s | these games are all running at the same |
| 11738s | exact time there are lobbies rolling |
| 11740s | back to back players don't really know |
| 11743s | who they're going to be queued into so |
| 11744s | you could be contested one game and then |
| 11746s | not the one after that right um but |
| 11748s | ultimately I think it kind of raises the |
| 11751s | difficulty bar in some ways but you can |
| 11753s | also find in other ways a little bit of |
| 11755s | room right especially when it comes down |
| 11758s | to how much of a player uh skill Gap |
| 11761s | there is cuz you you can get a little |
| 11762s | bit of everything here so far well |
| 11764s | that's certainly one thing that Larson |
| 11766s | and Deen are trying to establish right |
| 11768s | now monster it's it's that room to work |
| 11771s | with they they want space and |
| 11773s | with yzo and Rise So Close Quarters |
| 11776s | potentially yzo rise as well would can |
| 11779s | create some space of their own if they |
| 11781s | can find successful eliminations instead |
| 11783s | it's going to be the backside taking |
| 11784s | fully advantage of rise and yo caught |
| 11787s | between two separate teams now while |
| 11790s | they find an elimination on one they |
| 11793s | have to worry about the duo that came in |
| 11795s | after the fact and it's omy it's Dash |
| 11798s | who will find the finishing blow there |
| 11801s | onto yzo and leaving rise in this solo |
| 11805s | position |
| 11807s | alongside of the other Duo you got trick |
| 11810s | there who had just lost his Duo to rise |
| 11813s | and yzo but rise trying to make Ami and |
| 11818s | dash possibly think that he's already |
| 11820s | left the area but you can tell they're |
| 11822s | sitting on that reboot guard they know |
| 11824s | that rise wants to try and get a reboot |
| 11828s | going with the yzo yeah and if he could |
| 11830s | get there in time it's not too late to |
| 11832s | just jump into the Pleasant Plaza and |
| 11833s | potentially uh go for a pickup I also |
| 11835s | see I believe that's might be a rift |
| 11837s | island off to the side there too so |
| 11839s | definitely some options here to work |
| 11841s | with rise just waiting it out biting his |
| 11844s | opportunity here trick gets all the |
| 11848s | information obviously he can hear what's |
| 11849s | going on here he doesn't he doesn't move |
| 11852s | a beat he doesn't move Frozen Frozen in |
| 11856s | place rise there it is reboot in Scouts |
| 11859s | it out first and I guess the Call Comes |
| 11861s | Out y's like no bro just played out it's |
| 11863s | all good that's what he's going to do |
| 11866s | here Max material plays as a solo it's |
| 11868s | not bad still make some uh May some work |
| 11871s | with |
| 11873s | this could possibly just be rise though |
| 11876s | waiting for some of those team still |
| 11879s | hanging around to rotate forward and |
| 11882s | then he might look for for the reboot |
| 11884s | ban opportunity but definitely more than |
| 11888s | capable to play it as a solo if need be |
| 11891s | so we'll just have to keep |
| 11893s | tabs on on Rise see whether or not he |
| 11896s | gets that reboot possibility onto yzo |
| 11899s | but aside from those two Zea |
| 11903s | sure they're also ain't out |
| 11907s | here right by P Piaza |
| 11911s | and fora and Shore you've got the audio |
| 11915s | cues coming from just above you as far |
| 11917s | as those shots being fired are |
| 11920s | concerned but they haven't necessarily |
| 11922s | gotten active just yet same can't be |
| 11925s | said though for source and PE God |
| 11926s | putting a lot of pressure right now onto |
| 11928s | Lacy and jivy underneath |
| 11931s | them and jivy he's got to be careful |
| 11933s | with some of these peaks with sores kind |
| 11936s | of altering some of these edits getting |
| 11939s | some good visuals down |
| 11941s | below he knows that there's definitely a |
| 11944s | team to take advantage of for possible |
| 11947s | refreshes even though they're they're |
| 11949s | looking pretty solid as far as a loot is |
| 11951s | concerned |
| 11954s | Source here already on the fly on in I |
| 11958s | like the situation like you mentioned |
| 11959s | though the loot is looking pretty decent |
| 11961s | sniper in hand too can we see something |
| 11964s | explosive come out of it there it is |
| 11965s | used to break the wall it's one way to |
| 11969s | bust your way into a conversation |
| 11972s | here pretty aggressive so far from what |
| 11974s | we're seeing I'm thinking they recognize |
| 11977s | something we deal the pre-edit comes |
| 11979s | through oh that was just gross makes it |
| 11983s | look too easy the walls were already |
| 11986s | opened up completely exposed |
| 11990s | there that's just that's just some Pro |
| 11993s | Player Tech right there cam slam on The |
| 11995s | High Ground now six elim for cam Slam in |
| 11997s | a Minish okay this is a pretty decent |
| 11999s | game for them so far pressure coming in |
| 12001s | though wants to give them hyp for free |
| 12003s | and they got to |
| 12005s | move it's just watching somebody's |
| 12008s | builds get sprayed nonstop and you |
| 12011s | almost expect it you're like okay you |
| 12014s | guys can chill now but Baba and Trix |
| 12017s | they're definitely not trying to let Cam |
| 12019s | and a Minish have height for |
| 12022s | free but cam definitely has a lot of Sol |
| 12027s | material so builds not necessarily too |
| 12029s | threatened but got to be careful because |
| 12033s | 93 can rapidly turn into 13 as we start |
| 12037s | to get into these moving |
| 12041s | zones |
| 12044s | big tags coming in here High Ground |
| 12047s | still getting comfortable here so far |
| 12049s | Taco they're just kind of easing their |
| 12050s | way in no pressure from |
| 12052s | download no difficult questions to |
| 12055s | answer just |
| 12058s | yet smooth sailing here as we're |
| 12060s | approaching this 10th zone so far 500 |
| 12063s | above the surge here for source and peot |
| 12065s | as |
| 12067s | well and there's a little bit of a Eerie |
| 12070s | silence as far as the the are concerned |
| 12073s | here most of these layers kind of chill |
| 12075s | so far low ground not too much going |
| 12080s | on there it is finally players start to |
| 12082s | fall one's going to be to the hands of P |
| 12084s | God there four more need to fall before |
| 12087s | the surge deactivates for a second this |
| 12091s | is just one of the more spread out |
| 12094s | lobbies that we've seen in some of these |
| 12097s | tighter zones it's it's kind of |
| 12099s | impressive at how everyone has kind of |
| 12101s | managed to find their own little cubby |
| 12104s | their own little corner and now as the |
| 12107s | Zone continues to pull back Shore |
| 12113s | zaa they're aware of the fact that |
| 12115s | they've got teams directly next to them |
| 12117s | it's going to be blink actually be the |
| 12119s | first to get aggressed upon and will get |
| 12122s | knocked nice refresh there for |
| 12124s | sure gets a decent amount of builds off |
| 12127s | of it as well and we'll use that to tarp |
| 12130s | through that secondary TI layer but |
| 12133s | tapping back in to source and P P having |
| 12136s | found another elimination means that |
| 12139s | they've got a little bit of this low |
| 12141s | ground under a decent amount of control |
| 12143s | now Source just trying to see if he can |
| 12145s | find a clear path forward but de and |
| 12148s | Larsson more or less in the same boat |
| 12151s | just looking slightly worse for wear |
| 12153s | here as larsson's going to expend these |
| 12155s | last couple of small Shield |
| 12157s | potions and also just 35 builds too so |
| 12160s | pretty tough spot to be in meanwhile |
| 12162s | four builds just on Zea here he's |
| 12164s | running even less at this moment they |
| 12166s | need this big elimination here if they |
| 12168s | can grab it |
| 12169s | but something doesn't feel right the |
| 12172s | calls M to just hold off for a second |
| 12174s | they are just close to that top 20 |
| 12176s | placement as well |
| 12178s | so plenty of options to be made here or |
| 12181s | I should say top 10 placement P God by |
| 12184s | himself here jumped all the way to low |
| 12185s | that's it that was his last mat right |
| 12187s | there Taco this is it you will have to |
| 12188s | play for elimination but no the wall |
| 12190s | falls down no protection is there Ze |
| 12193s | behind Shore here both very hurt caught |
| 12196s | Zone too much |
| 12200s | damage Larson and DJ Now Larson finding |
| 12204s | a brief moment to actually get some |
| 12206s | utilization out of this make it back to |
| 12208s | full HP and now it's lson it's djen |
| 12212s | taking the immediate charge forward |
| 12214s | that's going to be a nice elimination |
| 12215s | there onto Jack as now DJ tries to |
| 12218s | collect the other onto Timeless but no |
| 12221s | instead DJ turned on lson split from his |
| 12225s | Duo only momentarily doesn't have any |
| 12229s | sort of heals either just has to depend |
| 12231s | exclusively on managing to find some |
| 12233s | sort of Miracle refresh here but with |
| 12236s | only three builds left MDF it's looking |
| 12239s | a bit grim and sure enough frzy will get |
| 12242s | the final elimination blow there a |
| 12245s | decent run attempt though the Min cam |
| 12247s | slam though remember did hold The High |
| 12249s | Ground this entire time successfully and |
| 12251s | again we talked about it felt easy for |
| 12253s | them they were really cruising their way |
| 12255s | through almost frictionless as they just |
| 12259s | battled their way towards the end game |
| 12260s | and almost picked up a double digit elim |
| 12262s | so that has to be a very respectable |
| 12264s | game for them nine elims to close that |
| 12267s | one out is pretty solid this late into |
| 12269s | the tournament run and remember the q's |
| 12272s | are starting to slow down now your your |
| 12274s | your chances you're probably on your |
| 12275s | last games for all we know that right |
| 12278s | there was a big opportunity for |
| 12281s | them all about making sure that hey you |
| 12284s | might not have started the day strong |
| 12285s | but if you can get a strong finish on |
| 12287s | the day that's another way to look at |
| 12289s | things and for a Minish and cam |
| 12292s | definitely impressive by the fact that |
| 12294s | they weren't challenging on The High |
| 12295s | Ground but they're not the only team |
| 12298s | that's going to take height we've also |
| 12299s | got our desk to break it down even more |
| 12301s | for |
| 12304s | us thank you guys so much my gosh a day |
| 12308s | of fortnite at this speed is crazy it's |
| 12312s | unlike anything else and this is just |
| 12314s | week number one of the competition to |
| 12317s | think we have a whole other week of this |
| 12318s | exact thing is it's just got me so hyped |
| 12322s | but as we gear up for the last game just |
| 12324s | like MDF said this is kind of it we've |
| 12327s | had kind of a window where players could |
| 12329s | play a number of games but now we're |
| 12331s | coming down to that final wire we only |
| 12333s | have so one left to go before we end the |
| 12336s | cues for this week now with that being |
| 12339s | said I do want to highlight some things |
| 12340s | here in this game big victory Royale |
| 12342s | remember we're just trying to play as |
| 12344s | well right if you can get yourself that |
| 12345s | Victory Royale that's going to be huge |
| 12347s | especially if you kind of think about in |
| 12348s | the context of like the coming weeks |
| 12350s | where once you hit that upper bracket if |
| 12351s | you can get yourself Victory Royale |
| 12353s | you're going straight to Grand finals so |
| 12355s | this is kind of like a a bit of practice |
| 12357s | right VI yeah 100% like taco put it the |
| 12359s | best right she mentioned you know not |
| 12361s | necessarily about how you start today it |
| 12363s | can definitely be about how you finish |
| 12365s | because these games right we've seen |
| 12366s | multiple teams put up very high |
| 12368s | elimination games that on top of the VR |
| 12370s | that's just so many points point you can |
| 12372s | just fly all the way up the leaderboard |
| 12374s | grab yourself just that many more |
| 12376s | serious points and set yourselves up |
| 12378s | very very well for week number two |
| 12380s | qualifier yeah and just the more points |
| 12383s | you're able to get the more series |
| 12384s | points you're able to accumulate and |
| 12385s | that's definitely going to help you put |
| 12387s | you into the upper bracket for the |
| 12388s | semi-finals day one which is definitely |
| 12390s | where you want to be you want as many |
| 12393s | opportunities as possible and by |
| 12394s | scrapping a victory Royale in the |
| 12396s | semi-finals will send you right to GRS |
| 12399s | and then you have other opportunities |
| 12400s | throughout the next two days so these |
| 12402s | teams it's not so much oh let's just see |
| 12404s | how well we do no they want to get as |
| 12405s | many points as possible to be put up |
| 12407s | into that upper bracket yeah and this is |
| 12410s | also kind of like practice for next week |
| 12411s | right you can kind of take what you've |
| 12413s | learned from this and go okay well how |
| 12414s | do we attack next week better how do we |
| 12416s | make sure we do hit those points that we |
| 12418s | kind of need to make sure we end in the |
| 12421s | top 250 a Duo that I feel like has been |
| 12424s | pretty on fire is lson I wanted to |
| 12426s | highlight them very quickly especially |
| 12427s | after that last game I mean this is kind |
| 12429s | of where we want to position ourselves |
| 12432s | right especially when we put it in the |
| 12433s | context of what did we learn well just |
| 12435s | look at Larson do what lson did yeah Hey |
| 12438s | listen sometimes you just got to go |
| 12439s | ahead and get into the box not |
| 12441s | necessarily a play that works out all |
| 12443s | the time but when it does it is very |
| 12446s | well worth it picks up a refresh right |
| 12447s | there tries it again tries his luck one |
| 12450s | more time ends up going down but still a |
| 12452s | top 10 finish there in one of our last |
| 12454s | games is going to be very very |
| 12456s | helpful no and just like what Taco was |
| 12458s | saying you might not have started out |
| 12460s | strong but you want to end off strong |
| 12461s | the day started a little rough for them |
| 12463s | averaging around 27th Place but in the |
| 12466s | last three games they've been in they've |
| 12468s | gotten top eight every single time so |
| 12470s | this is the time that they're going to |
| 12472s | start collecting those points trying to |
| 12473s | climb up the leaderboard they're |
| 12475s | currently sitting in 80th Place but |
| 12476s | currently sitting in first place what do |
| 12478s | you know it's ritual and Reit of course |
| 12481s | of course in case you guys haven't |
| 12482s | picked up Kelly's a fan of Reit he's a |
| 12484s | player from na west of and ritual okay |
| 12487s | all right all right hey read and ritual |
| 12488s | okay okay I'm sorry there uh as we kind |
| 12490s | of turned attention there to the top |
| 12491s | many there's still a ton of these names |
| 12494s | right remember we are aiming for how |
| 12496s | high we can place for those Series |
| 12498s | points as the weeks go on right now even |
| 12501s | just looking at this top 20 I mean just |
| 12503s | look at some of these names as we look |
| 12506s | on over to even that top 30 I mean just |
| 12510s | considering again like I like to just |
| 12512s | think about the chaos that we've seen |
| 12514s | today what will our players learn what |
| 12516s | will the takeaways be how will this |
| 12519s | experience kind of help them evolve in |
| 12521s | the coming weeks |
| 12522s | yes just all about that experience and |
| 12524s | you know we've kind of talked about it a |
| 12526s | lot throughout today right being like Oh |
| 12529s | you know how are the players going to |
| 12530s | adapt what's going to change at all of |
| 12532s | their pois all the objectives that are |
| 12534s | around the map and now that they kind of |
| 12536s | see what that looks like going into next |
| 12538s | week they will definitely have a better |
| 12541s | picture in mind of what that will |
| 12543s | actually look like so we might see some |
| 12544s | even more dominant performances next |
| 12547s | week yeah I think at least looking at |
| 12550s | some of our top teams right now landing |
| 12552s | on those Mythic pois such as ritual and |
| 12554s | Reit going for reckless Railways boa and |
| 12557s | aiv Landing snoody steps that definitely |
| 12559s | offers a lot of positives but Peter bot |
| 12561s | and poo who are doing this kind of split |
| 12563s | drop who aren't going to get the mythics |
| 12566s | but they are near the forecast I think |
| 12567s | just putting yourself in a position to |
| 12569s | get a strong early game that obviously |
| 12571s | leads to a beneficial mid and late game |
| 12573s | seems to be working for at least our top |
| 12575s | three but also they're just really good |
| 12576s | at fortnite so that's you know an |
| 12578s | element as well yeah and I think for me |
| 12581s | when I kind of continue to think about |
| 12582s | this like Evolution situation right I |
| 12584s | wonder like if we just say like re |
| 12586s | ritual how many of their games have been |
| 12589s | we land and we're just completely |
| 12590s | uncontested right and then how many of |
| 12591s | the games have been like hey maybe |
| 12593s | there's a Duo maybe there's up to you |
| 12594s | know let's just say five Duos that have |
| 12596s | suddenly landed here how do they adapt |
| 12598s | situation to situation right and for |
| 12600s | them they're doing it right they're just |
| 12602s | they have this strong |
| 12605s | lead when I'm thinking about like okay |
| 12607s | if I want to be like them I'm going to |
| 12609s | go back I'm going to watch their their |
| 12610s | their games I'm going to kind of what |
| 12612s | what happened game to game and I even me |
| 12614s | just as Zeke I have to go back and do |
| 12615s | that this week right like how did they |
| 12617s | put on this performance It Feels So |
| 12620s | dominant I mean sometimes it just comes |
| 12621s | down to something just as simple as what |
| 12623s | Kelly said sometimes you just got to be |
| 12625s | really good at |
| 12627s | fortnite there you |
| 12629s | go no I was oh never mind you know what |
| 12633s | Kelly hold that thought this is it final |
| 12635s | game on the day this is a fulllength |
| 12638s | game that's right so if we've been going |
| 12640s | a little too quick it's okay we'll take |
| 12641s | GA breather we start at the very |
| 12642s | beginning One Last Ride let's get into |
| 12645s | with our casters MDF and |
| 12652s | taco let's do it here it is mzz and |
| 12655s | paper sitting on the beach here enjoying |
| 12658s | some time in the sun while they gather |
| 12660s | material here as we are in the final |
| 12662s | queue that we're going to be showcasing |
| 12664s | here today and you can see we're in |
| 12666s | early Taco we have a lot of fortnite in |
| 12668s | front of |
| 12669s | us yeah and and with the duo that we |
| 12673s | haven't really gotten to see too much |
| 12674s | from here today but they are one of our |
| 12677s | Duos kind of in contention for finishing |
| 12680s | in that top 10 of this week one |
| 12684s | leaderboard which would just be a nice |
| 12686s | little I think motivation boost |
| 12689s | confidence boost just a a good feeling |
| 12692s | all around when it comes down to top 250 |
| 12695s | Duos and you managed to finish within |
| 12697s | the top 10 of them and they have |
| 12699s | actually found the victory Royale as |
| 12701s | well on the day here so muz and paper |
| 12704s | they're they're definitely just kind of |
| 12706s | focusing on doing their thing and |
| 12707s | continuing to just kind of gel as a Duo |
| 12710s | yeah let's not forget paper's been |
| 12711s | around for a long time as well just |
| 12713s | putting in the work so like you said |
| 12715s | it's good to have your moments in your |
| 12717s | competitive road map and your you know |
| 12719s | as far as your accolades are concerned |
| 12721s | performing big getting top 10 especially |
| 12724s | in today's day and |
| 12727s | age take a look here back in with bacon |
| 12729s | and TK |
| 12732s | up inside that top 20 definitely putting |
| 12734s | up the numbers definitely going to be |
| 12735s | earning a fair amount of Series points |
| 12737s | coming out of this week set themselves |
| 12739s | up for Success here on over to nface and |
| 12742s | curly already two elim so they wrap up |
| 12745s | one of the what's this four teams that |
| 12748s | might have been here themselves in the |
| 12750s | mix very |
| 12752s | congested it looks like there's another |
| 12754s | team on the way coming from the |
| 12757s | steps that's for |
| 12760s | sure but |
| 12762s | curly |
| 12763s | Deon quick shout out to the goons there |
| 12766s | I'm not sure if that's you know him |
| 12768s | showing love the pink or not for from EU |
| 12772s | but curing definitely just trying to do |
| 12775s | his thing here on |
| 12777s | na and it's it's not going to be all |
| 12781s | that easy there for for Onyx and Deo |
| 12785s | because they've got to actually work |
| 12786s | through nface and curly if they want to |
| 12790s | find themselves continuing their run |
| 12792s | although there is a decent chance that |
| 12793s | some of these teams might just flat out |
| 12795s | not look to fight monster and just go |
| 12797s | exclusively for placement as long as |
| 12799s | they're able to keep their surge tag |
| 12801s | damage threshold in a decent |
| 12804s | spot placement sometimes all you need |
| 12807s | yeah placements can can definitely earn |
| 12808s | you a lot but we all know with how big |
| 12810s | teams are putting up performances here |
| 12813s | in the elimination Lane you have you |
| 12815s | have to accommodate your your placement |
| 12818s | games with elims it's just there's no |
| 12819s | way for you to make a true dent |
| 12821s | especially if I again if I had to assume |
| 12824s | this late into the last lobbies folks |
| 12826s | are probably going to be trying to you |
| 12827s | know pretty much make a hero's effort |
| 12829s | here have a really really big |
| 12834s | game if anything it can be a big |
| 12836s | learning point though for some of these |
| 12839s | newer teams at least managing to work |
| 12843s | their way into the top 250 of Duos here |
| 12846s | in week number |
| 12847s | one but DC awesomer vet |
| 12853s | not |
| 12854s | necessarily finding an opportunity just |
| 12857s | yet onto viso and a but at the same time |
| 12862s | it's evident that Lio a they're probably |
| 12867s | not going to be able to escape this |
| 12868s | completely unscathed I feel like with |
| 12871s | the amount of time that DC in already |
| 12873s | invested they might just be looking for |
| 12875s | a high ground position and then possibly |
| 12877s | just looking to turn around and |
| 12879s | prevent and easy rotate |
| 12884s | there9 big fan of the setup right here |
| 12887s | they caught out Soo they're just trying |
| 12889s | to push in its Vision trying to move |
| 12892s | desperate to get back to his teammate |
| 12894s | teammate putting down some good fire |
| 12895s | here but DC |
| 12897s | oser it's already on the hunt you barely |
| 12901s | tag him but they feel like I said before |
| 12903s | this is where teams are going to get |
| 12905s | really |
| 12907s | aggressive they're going to want to just |
| 12909s | find as many elim as possible it's very |
| 12911s | clear that you have to pop off right now |
| 12913s | and likely everyone else is going to be |
| 12914s | pushing teams as well so this should be |
| 12916s | a more or less much lighter Lobby for |
| 12918s | what for what it's |
| 12921s | worth but this attack though from oer |
| 12924s | and vet they've done a great job that |
| 12926s | just forcibly splitting up Riso and his |
| 12930s | Duo here on looking to put some fight |
| 12933s | back vet nearly finds himself getting |
| 12936s | knocked in the process but it will be a |
| 12939s | clean elimination finish there for DC |
| 12942s | AER the ones exchange panning out in |
| 12946s | this Duo's favor and bet DC AER it it |
| 12949s | again it could just be a team that's |
| 12952s | looking to not struggle with surge |
| 12954s | damage later |
| 12955s | on yeah you know what and I can respect |
| 12958s | a Duo that could win their ones each of |
| 12959s | them definitely took a one-on-one at at |
| 12961s | some point or another they isolated the |
| 12963s | opponent and and up sealing the deal |
| 12966s | there closing out the job so very well |
| 12967s | played polarized is down however here in |
| 12970s | this fight with death let's take a look |
| 12971s | at how that all unfolded take a look |
| 12973s | here death had an angle but trick seems |
| 12975s | to have stronger play in mind they find |
| 12978s | polarized weakened on the backside |
| 12981s | trying to find a fresh angle here to |
| 12983s | potentially support death but the wall |
| 12986s | was a wood wall was already damaged so |
| 12989s | one burst is going to let you slip right |
| 12991s | on inside and Trix and ball are pretty |
| 12994s | happy right now just uh you know |
| 12996s | situating the material count here |
| 12998s | getting comfortable and having |
| 12999s | themselves a nice end game |
| 13003s | that little beam of light though into |
| 13004s | the darkness that surrounds tricks and |
| 13008s | Baba but again this is a team that's a |
| 13012s | lot more focused as far as just |
| 13014s | getting their materials up and I think |
| 13018s | they're also kind of just sticking |
| 13019s | around here because they don't want to |
| 13021s | let death collect polarized reboot card |
| 13023s | for free we've been seeing that time and |
| 13025s | time again throughout these lobbies MDF |
| 13027s | just teams sticking around a little bit |
| 13030s | extra to try and stop solos from having |
| 13034s | that reboot card |
| 13036s | opportunity y Jag beir putting pressure |
| 13039s | down on some solos rotating on the |
| 13040s | backside here just North the Run |
| 13044s | reels let's jump on over see what's |
| 13046s | happening over here riff Island possibly |
| 13048s | taken to formation |
| 13050s | here have bacon and |
| 13053s | TK in the mix as |
| 13059s | well there it is first |
| 13061s | to the punch here TK goes right on up no |
| 13064s | time to |
| 13067s | waste nobody even nearby to try and |
| 13071s | prevent |
| 13072s | them from taking full advantage of |
| 13075s | looking for the the capture Point here |
| 13077s | on Rift |
| 13078s | Island |
| 13080s | so I almost want to say it's safe to say |
| 13083s | that that TK and bacon got this given |
| 13086s | that there is just nobody else close by |
| 13090s | and yeah you can see TK not even |
| 13092s | bothering with putting up any sort of |
| 13095s | walls or anything just knows that they |
| 13097s | are so uncontested for Rift Island that |
| 13100s | capture point is completely free so they |
| 13103s | will be able to just essentially collect |
| 13105s | all the resources available to them from |
| 13107s | the rift Island definitely a nice little |
| 13111s | swing for those two to collect meanwhile |
| 13115s | this a Duo that I like a lot right here |
| 13117s | Walkers and Shadow you know they've been |
| 13119s | playing with one another they played all |
| 13120s | year long last year uh this is a team |
| 13122s | that has exponential like incredible |
| 13125s | potential both of them are super |
| 13127s | mechanically gifted I think if they just |
| 13129s | continue to work through their |
| 13131s | weaknesses which honestly I think comes |
| 13133s | in a form of a sense of direction making |
| 13136s | the right decisions and committing to it |
| 13138s | they've had a they've had a tough time |
| 13140s | you know being contested taking certain |
| 13142s | uh uh battles during the fncs weeks and |
| 13145s | they haven't quite had a a good solid |
| 13148s | drop I think if they can get their loot |
| 13150s | together there I can see a team like |
| 13152s | Shadow and Walkers popping off and and |
| 13154s | jumping up into the you know the elite |
| 13156s | conversation if you will they have |
| 13157s | enough experience under their belt |
| 13160s | now but always still looking to add more |
| 13164s | and these are |
| 13166s | definitely training moments I understand |
| 13168s | that yes there's Series points on the |
| 13170s | line here but you talk about you know |
| 13174s | Shadow and Walkers and them struggling a |
| 13176s | little bit with their mid to end game |
| 13179s | calls and as far as commitment is |
| 13181s | concerned and again I I highly doubt |
| 13185s | they're the only ones even with the |
| 13188s | amount of experience that they have that |
| 13190s | might be struggling with some of those |
| 13191s | decisions because it is an extra layer |
| 13194s | of difficulty competing in these lobbies |
| 13197s | cuz again you just don't know who you're |
| 13199s | up against you don't know if somebody |
| 13201s | might actually be looking to intercept |
| 13202s | you on your traditional loot path just a |
| 13206s | lot of varying factors that come into |
| 13208s | play with multiple lobbies running at |
| 13215s | once mu and paper the same team we kind |
| 13219s | of started this journey with again up |
| 13221s | inside that top 10 right here it's a |
| 13224s | weakend of confidence for them back on |
| 13226s | over to death no polarized still haven't |
| 13229s | been able to successfully get the pickup |
| 13231s | and if he did we looked away and he was |
| 13233s | taken out again but there the Vault |
| 13237s | finally emptied out and not even a kit |
| 13241s | Left Behind for him so tough spot to be |
| 13243s | in here death is just really struggling |
| 13247s | right now to stay in the game here being |
| 13249s | hell too [ __ ] Hound Flex all these |
| 13252s | players in the zone mind |
| 13255s | you it's absurd to think that there |
| 13258s | would even be three other players |
| 13261s | surrounding death |
| 13262s | currently |
| 13264s | because I have to imagine as these teams |
| 13268s | and solos start to rotate out from |
| 13270s | snoody steps they're likely going to be |
| 13273s | held on edge of Zone because so many |
| 13277s | other teams have just had better |
| 13278s | opportunity to already set |
| 13280s | up inside of the Zone but poor death man |
| 13285s | just can't really seem to catch a break |
| 13287s | here is still going to look for that |
| 13290s | reboot van |
| 13292s | opportunity |
| 13293s | death honestly I I respect the play I |
| 13297s | respect the commitment he's already gone |
| 13299s | this far and if you're going to look for |
| 13301s | that reboot opportunity now would be |
| 13304s | better than later on because he's not |
| 13306s | going to find one after this I was just |
| 13308s | going to say after that long I wouldn't |
| 13309s | have even boxed man just just you know |
| 13312s | leave it leave it in the Lord's hands |
| 13313s | you know just leave it with epic dude |
| 13315s | let it let it play out the way it's |
| 13317s | going to play out but uh it's all good |
| 13320s | it seems like they're going to get a |
| 13321s | successful pickup going there uh day and |
| 13323s | Redux now little elim for each not bad |
| 13326s | 400 damage above the surge threshold |
| 13328s | things have really you know taken it |
| 13330s | taking a slow turn now as this Lobby was |
| 13333s | I mean it was cooking up now it turned |
| 13335s | into one of the more stacked on look 66 |
| 13337s | players to the six Zone half and half |
| 13339s | out so that's definitely a warning to be |
| 13341s | given to the lobby so here we have it |
| 13344s | we're going to be geared up for a pretty |
| 13345s | competitive end game now is I think all |
| 13347s | the teams that wanted to push and fight |
| 13349s | have kind of gotten it out their |
| 13353s | systems but with the direction that day |
| 13356s | and Redux are headed could be |
| 13358s | problematic we saw mzz and paper off the |
| 13360s | distance and well flexi Hai they were |
| 13364s | one of the teams kind of holding death |
| 13366s | up over at snoody steps and you can see |
| 13369s | they managed to find that clean up |
| 13371s | elimination onto Hound who was left to |
| 13375s | try and preoccupy his time as a solo |
| 13377s | Hound maybe recognizing the fact that he |
| 13379s | wasn't going to be able to utilize that |
| 13380s | reboot van and snoody steps and you can |
| 13382s | see those arrows trickling forward |
| 13385s | now that's bound to be death and |
| 13388s | polarized trying to make their way |
| 13391s | into a good |
| 13393s | position that can hopefully give them a |
| 13396s | a bounce back opportunity cuz you have |
| 13398s | to imagine their |
| 13400s | loot probably slightly |
| 13402s | shambles after everything that they |
| 13405s | seemingly went through in these first |
| 13407s | five six |
| 13409s | zones well bacon still has to play this |
| 13413s | one out 37 above here just a short wa to |
| 13416s | the new Zone and teams are sipping |
| 13417s | everywhere trying to time his rotate |
| 13420s | perfect but no a team recognized Z by |
| 13422s | himself and bacon gets hard pushed |
| 13426s | now and there it is has to dip into his |
| 13429s | heels here this next Zone's going to |
| 13431s | start to hit for a lot so he's got to |
| 13432s | get out AAP while everyone else is on |
| 13434s | the move and there it |
| 13438s | is yeah no surprise to see a team trying |
| 13441s | to keepy bacon given that he was in that |
| 13445s | solo position it's interesting though |
| 13447s | that bacon actually managed to still |
| 13450s | find his way to a a brief moment of |
| 13453s | relief here trying to see if bacon can |
| 13457s | maybe find a good pickoff opportunity a |
| 13460s | Duo that just happens to split a little |
| 13462s | bit too far from each other even could |
| 13464s | be all it takes and death seemingly |
| 13469s | having lost polarized almost as quickly |
| 13471s | as he was able to get that reboot off so |
| 13475s | his efforts unfortunately in vain here |
| 13478s | is now death forced to try and make |
| 13483s | something happen as far as placement |
| 13486s | points are concerned here but it's |
| 13488s | definitely not going to be an easy feat |
| 13490s | by any |
| 13494s | means well let's watch it vline and R |
| 13497s | jump in quick replay here to see how it |
| 13499s | all plays out in through the side finds |
| 13502s | the elimination cleans it up nicely and |
| 13504s | all of a sudden they are in the game |
| 13505s | here muz and paper are dead center right |
| 13508s | now look at all the bases they're |
| 13510s | starting to get built up but there's |
| 13511s | plenty of players also taken to the sky |
| 13514s | right |
| 13516s | now they're way above the surge for for |
| 13519s | only a single elim is pretty impressive |
| 13521s | that's just what I was about to say it's |
| 13523s | you know we're tracking the same thought |
| 13525s | process here and honestly I'm I'm kind |
| 13527s | of more surprised at the fact that we're |
| 13529s | not seeing Muzz and paper choose to get |
| 13532s | a little bit more aggressive here maybe |
| 13534s | just kind of recognizing the fact that |
| 13535s | they are in such a good position as far |
| 13538s | as surge threshold and everything else |
| 13539s | is concern they just want to focus |
| 13542s | primarily on just maintaining a good |
| 13544s | positioning in the lobby overall just |
| 13547s | making sure they don't get caught out or |
| 13549s | or caught in between two teams like |
| 13551s | we've seen happen so many other times |
| 13554s | for some of these other |
| 13557s | players still trying to clutch this one |
| 13559s | up by himself |
| 13562s | here as Mayhem unfolds all around bacon |
| 13567s | in this super odd seren how you know |
| 13568s | he's trying to keep us Mega low profile |
| 13571s | he playing the Super Low ground crouched |
| 13574s | up huddled up not making a sound there |
| 13576s | just waiting this one |
| 13578s | out meanwhile death in the same |
| 13581s | situation here pretty much in shambles |
| 13583s | just inside old builds trying to stay |
| 13586s | out of Harm's Way right now again he was |
| 13589s | in the zone for who knows how |
| 13591s | long just to save polarized and now |
| 13594s | polariz taken out there so probably |
| 13596s | didn't even get the touch down to be |
| 13599s | fair |
| 13602s | I think it's the six bandages that |
| 13603s | really makes me just like feel bad |
| 13607s | for it's like he doesn't even like Ro |
| 13610s | doesn't even have a medkit you know he |
| 13612s | doesn't have any Shield like nothing |
| 13615s | it's |
| 13616s | just six bandies that he can't even take |
| 13620s | advantage of I like this rotate though |
| 13622s | super dead side rotate all the way |
| 13624s | around here look at this avoid a lot of |
| 13628s | yep nicely done look Lacy's in this game |
| 13630s | as well almost that jiy |
| 13637s | there all the bandages at least one of |
| 13640s | them can finally be used now Dead's got |
| 13643s | a pretty decent position though he might |
| 13644s | be able to maintain a low of |
| 13648s | profile see how far he actually manages |
| 13651s | to get here as now paper |
| 13654s | Muzz a little bit of ruling Over The |
| 13657s | High Ground here now |
| 13660s | paper placing a couple of cones trying |
| 13663s | to spread out get even bigger view of |
| 13667s | all those teams in the secondary high |
| 13669s | and low ground layers see where they can |
| 13671s | spray and it's lacy and jivy on that |
| 13673s | ultimate low ground for the time |
| 13675s | being doesn't seem as though Lacy and JY |
| 13679s | feel all that confident with trying to |
| 13681s | immediately challenge some of these |
| 13683s | players in their boxes so instead |
| 13684s | they're just going to continue tarping |
| 13686s | things through on that low |
| 13688s | ground |
| 13690s | well zuk and Usain boats are on the move |
| 13692s | right |
| 13693s | now try to get into a position |
| 13698s | here they find it looks good for them |
| 13701s | Walker's going to find an elimination in |
| 13703s | the feed there too meanwhile higher and |
| 13705s | raay on the move here seven elim so |
| 13708s | pretty big game for them see the Mythic |
| 13709s | shotgun in hand too that's going to be |
| 13712s | doing the big damage |
| 13714s | here this is not a safe layer by any |
| 13717s | means here he's look to the back of the |
| 13719s | zone right now |
| 13720s | all wood here so he does have to be |
| 13722s | careful that first SMG Creeps in so |
| 13724s | easily bacon tries to put up a Poise |
| 13727s | tries to fight |
| 13729s | back 10 builds now make it less has to |
| 13732s | Ed it through misses the |
| 13734s | edit that's going to cause some Zone |
| 13736s | damage and the Zone bounce is back |
| 13738s | Ducky's on him now too too many players |
| 13741s | in the area there it is the shotguns |
| 13743s | ends up finding them it's AJ Maul |
| 13746s | meanwhile death still alive here those |
| 13748s | bandages that we talked in the |
| 13750s | vages that we focused in on keeping him |
| 13752s | alive right |
| 13754s | now but for how much longer that damage |
| 13758s | threshold just bouncing back and forth |
| 13760s | between four above and you know just a |
| 13764s | little bit below ooh little elimination |
| 13766s | there onto higher there nicely done for |
| 13768s | death okay so he finds his first El |
| 13770s | there big point the grapple starts to |
| 13772s | recharge to the front side he goes a |
| 13774s | little bit of a Refresh on mat Burns |
| 13776s | through most of them but it is what it |
| 13779s | is at least he's in the game so |
| 13781s | unfortunate he didn't get a chance to |
| 13782s | actually pick up those small Shield |
| 13784s | potions though could have definitely |
| 13786s | benefited from having a little bit of |
| 13787s | extra shield there instead just one |
| 13790s | bandage remains now for death but doing |
| 13794s | a great job of rotating through all |
| 13797s | these pre-existing layers grapple blade |
| 13800s | forward trying to get up into that |
| 13802s | secondary height midg ground layer |
| 13803s | position but just keeps |
| 13806s | getting forcibly blocked off |
| 13810s | now forced to try and pickaxe through |
| 13811s | some of these pre-existing builds and |
| 13814s | again with only one bandage remaining |
| 13816s | death he's got to come up with another |
| 13817s | elimination somewhere but it just |
| 13820s | doesn't seem like he's able to find |
| 13822s | anyone yeah and it's not just the elim |
| 13824s | he has to pick up the he has to pick up |
| 13826s | the heels he has to find a chance to |
| 13827s | actually utilize them players there |
| 13829s | though that's not safe no knocked on the |
| 13832s | wrong door finally and someone answered |
| 13835s | wasn't the response he was looking for |
| 13837s | for day though also just ratting his way |
| 13839s | through the builds though he does have |
| 13840s | some material starts to break out into |
| 13843s | Mad Dash into Sprint tries to change |
| 13845s | some layers has to be careful though |
| 13846s | he's got the attention of the players |
| 13849s | right above him yeah he is just in that |
| 13852s | midr layer heavily right now muin paper |
| 13854s | starting to look down edgy jumped into a |
| 13857s | box with Tavern but gets taken out |
| 13859s | Tavern Now by |
| 13861s | himself Dashers above him jiy and Lacy |
| 13864s | right in front here versus Tavern will |
| 13866s | they make the edit on him little do they |
| 13867s | know he's definitely damaged |
| 13871s | you can see some of the pickaxes of |
| 13873s | regret though Tavern knocks on one wall |
| 13876s | realizes there's two but it will only |
| 13878s | take one to actually eliminate him |
| 13881s | that's going to be day with the credit |
| 13882s | elimination onto Tavern but day with |
| 13885s | that drop to the low ground didn't |
| 13887s | actually get a chance to pick up any |
| 13889s | sort of siphon materials there bit |
| 13892s | unfortunate circumstances but uh still a |
| 13895s | clean elimination at the very least and |
| 13897s | now Lacy M having actually lost paper |
| 13902s | has two floppers though and it could be |
| 13906s | enough for M to look for the challenge |
| 13908s | onto the low ground |
| 13909s | down and it's |
| 13912s | intered not enough Muzz jumps down tries |
| 13915s | to hit the shot and |
| 13918s | uncharacteristically by the way missed |
| 13921s | the big big hit he did find a little bit |
| 13923s | there but not what exactly what he was |
| 13925s | looking for but well done to crypted man |
| 13926s | finds himself a little clutch |
| 13928s | elimination you talked about closing out |
| 13929s | the day strong there Taco I mean he did |
| 13931s | just |
| 13933s | that that was everything that MZ could |
| 13936s | have possibly wanted but the fact that |
| 13939s | he just didn't manage to get that last |
| 13942s | second connection and 28 damage it's |
| 13943s | definitely not what you're looking for |
| 13945s | yeah but it's it's brutal sometimes |
| 13948s | that's just also huge credit to |
| 13950s | encrypted for keeping his cool in that |
| 13952s | situation and you could see the the |
| 13955s | benefits of just being able to turn |
| 13957s | things right around didn't let himself |
| 13959s | panic in that instance yeah ducky |
| 13961s | slamming in cryptic congratulations on |
| 13963s | taking a win there to close out their |
| 13966s | fncs qualifier weekend one because they |
| 13967s | really needed it you have to get as many |
| 13969s | points as possible here yeah and when |
| 13972s | everything comes down to Series points |
| 13974s | for these first couple of weeks |
| 13975s | finishing in and even the top 10 top 20 |
| 13978s | can make a really big difference overall |
| 13981s | but I think especially for our top 10 |
| 13982s | teams I'm really interested to see what |
| 13984s | that leaderboard looks like well |
| 13985s | definitely we'll have to see that from |
| 13986s | us here monster in Taco we'll see you |
| 13989s | guys next time but first let's send on |
| 13991s | over to |
| 13993s | Zeke hey thank you so much MDF and taco |
| 13997s | fantastic set of games and man again |
| 13999s | it's just been rapid fire all day long |
| 14002s | it was nice to just get a little |
| 14003s | breather there a longer game more kown |
| 14006s | context overall I feel good everything |
| 14010s | is right once again let's take a look at |
| 14011s | our winners out of that last game if |
| 14014s | you're just tuning in you missed out on |
| 14015s | a lot of action but hey slam jam |
| 14017s | encrypted congratulations to you yall |
| 14019s | the victory Roy out on the way on the |
| 14021s | day that is kind of going to help propel |
| 14025s | them going into next week right because |
| 14027s | as Taco had mentioned for these first |
| 14029s | two weeks we're really just trying to uh |
| 14031s | slam Series points down on that |
| 14032s | leaderboard so the higher placements we |
| 14035s | can make after the tweeks are done the |
| 14037s | higher chance we have of making into the |
| 14039s | grand finals and here encrypted slam jam |
| 14042s | just trying to close it out right again |
| 14044s | it's been a bit of a chaotic day a ton |
| 14047s | of games being played but still the |
| 14049s | Victory roale is all that matters yeah |
| 14050s | they go ahead and end it strong there |
| 14052s | and against none other than Muzz it's |
| 14054s | actually kind of funny not so funny for |
| 14056s | muz but kind of funny in the sense that |
| 14058s | MZ actually had no medium ammo left |
| 14061s | right he had nothing in his AR so he |
| 14063s | couldn't actually follow it up played |
| 14064s | such a big role right there I feel like |
| 14066s | and that's like one of like the only |
| 14067s | times I've ever seen that actually come |
| 14068s | into |
| 14069s | play yeah yeah actually you're right you |
| 14072s | would think that if you're low on ammo |
| 14073s | you would just go to the low ground |
| 14074s | where there's a lot of scattered bodies |
| 14076s | around but unfortunately for them they |
| 14078s | just weren't able to get that timing |
| 14079s | down and they did not walk away with the |
| 14081s | victory Royale but still second place is |
| 14083s | pretty good however I'm excited to see |
| 14086s | which Duo is in our first place for our |
| 14088s | leaderboard sounds like Kelly is |
| 14090s | spoiling the fun because we know who is |
| 14093s | currently sitting there at the top it is |
| 14095s | Reit it is ritual take a look at this |
| 14099s | lead so what I wanted to do you're |
| 14101s | probably if you if you if we been with |
| 14103s | us you're like okay |
| 14105s | 527 that number is like astronomical |
| 14108s | already okay but there's been a couple |
| 14109s | of accolades we had to highlight for you |
| 14111s | okay from RE ritual today they got the |
| 14114s | most vrs of any region which was five |
| 14116s | you see there most points next up was |
| 14119s | oce at 440 the most top five placements |
| 14123s | which was six the most 10 and 15 |
| 14126s | elimination games the most single game |
| 14128s | elimination games which was 19 and they |
| 14131s | were responsible for |
| 14133s | 11% of the victory Royals in na today |
| 14138s | yeah woo I don't know what these guys |
| 14142s | had for breakfast but I'll take |
| 14145s | two I mean they last four games were |
| 14149s | absolutely crazy backto back to backto |
| 14152s | back wins getting four in a row there |
| 14155s | and apparently if you were to only count |
| 14158s | their last four games they would have |
| 14160s | won just as they already did oh no way |
| 14164s | wow that is insane that is insane Kelly |
| 14168s | I you know I I think this has been a |
| 14171s | long time coming re and ritual they've |
| 14173s | been competing since major 3 of last |
| 14175s | year they had a top 10 performance in |
| 14177s | the global championships and they had |
| 14179s | obviously a really good run in round |
| 14181s | three ending off the day in first place |
| 14183s | so to see them doing this I don't know |
| 14186s | if anyone could have expected this well |
| 14189s | but I don't think it's as big of a |
| 14191s | surprise as maybe some other people are |
| 14193s | making it out to be both of these |
| 14195s | players are absolutely incredible I |
| 14197s | already talked about the evolution of |
| 14199s | but ritual was walking away with more |
| 14201s | eliminations in most of those games that |
| 14203s | we saw for the victory Royale so I think |
| 14206s | this is just serendipitous I think that |
| 14209s | these two together kind of cover all |
| 14212s | facets of what you need to be for a top |
| 14215s | player in the fncs and I can't wait to |
| 14217s | see if they can do it again next week |
| 14220s | because there's this possibility that |
| 14223s | it's you know lightning in a bottle but |
| 14225s | I I really hope that this is kind of a |
| 14228s | new Duo that can walk away as like the |
| 14231s | premier in a Duo that's kind of where my |
| 14234s | head's at right Kelly is because of this |
| 14237s | performance they've almost painted a |
| 14239s | really big Target on their back so one |
| 14241s | of two things happens next week happens |
| 14244s | they slam another 500 points we go wow |
| 14247s | this Duo is they're the next Global |
| 14249s | Champions right or they don't do well at |
| 14253s | all next week and then we kind of wonder |
| 14256s | what happened what why were you so |
| 14259s | strong on week number one VI do you feel |
| 14261s | like maybe them just jumping out and |
| 14263s | coming out of the gate so strong is a |
| 14266s | good thing is it a bad thing where you |
| 14267s | at I think it's a good thing for sure I |
| 14269s | mean the momentum's got to be feeling |
| 14270s | good right we uh there's kind of been |
| 14273s | this this big break from competitive |
| 14275s | fortnite fncs specifically right and now |
| 14278s | they jump back into it and the first |
| 14280s | week they come out with an absolutely |
| 14282s | incredible performance which just means |
| 14284s | that hey they have to be feeling |
| 14285s | incredible themselves and they have to |
| 14287s | be feeling really really good to be back |
| 14289s | in the |
| 14291s | fncs okay okay so friends what are our |
| 14293s | expectations going into next week right |
| 14295s | we've had these set of games we've |
| 14297s | gotten to kind of see how things can get |
| 14300s | really really from chaotic to like it's |
| 14302s | just a standard 2v2 to like suddenly |
| 14304s | there's heof like what do these players |
| 14306s | need to change as they kind of have this |
| 14308s | week to reflect well if you uh if you |
| 14311s | did good right probably don't really |
| 14313s | change much I would say you just got to |
| 14315s | make sure that you're up there on the |
| 14316s | series Point leaderboard and if you |
| 14317s | already did well this week you don't |
| 14319s | necessarily have to do too well next |
| 14320s | week uh but for any of those teams that |
| 14322s | are looking to do a little bit better |
| 14324s | hit the VOD you know maybe maybe check |
| 14325s | out some of these teams like Rich kind |
| 14327s | of check out their strategy see what |
| 14328s | they're |
| 14329s | doing yeah I think we might see a few |
| 14332s | more Duos Landing Reckless Railways not |
| 14334s | saying that is the only reason that re |
| 14336s | and ritual which the alliterations match |
| 14338s | there the Double R uh I definitely think |
| 14341s | that people are going to be Rod |
| 14342s | reviewing re and ritual seeing what they |
| 14344s | did right as well as the likes of Bugan |
| 14345s | naiv and Cen Acorn and of course Peter |
| 14347s | bot and poo who walked away second place |
| 14349s | today so uh yeah definitely going to be |
| 14352s | some V reviewing for week two yeah a |
| 14354s | very strong showing here in na in just |
| 14357s | week number one but that's it for today |
| 14359s | I I hate this part where we just have to |
| 14362s | say goodbye and it's we'll see you next |
| 14363s | weekend but that is where we're at so |
| 14366s | for the players much reflecting must |
