8s | thank you |
---|---|
10s | good morning children and welcome to a |
13s | very special class Unfortunately today |
16s | I've misplaced my syllabus so as any |
18s | good teacher knows it's time to wheel |
19s | out the TV and let someone else do my |
22s | work for me today is a very special |
24s | edition zeroing in on one particular |
26s | player who despite not taking the |
28s | victory did provide us with endless |
30s | entertainment and a few valuable lessons |
33s | along the way this is a sleepy special |
37s | edition and this is Lobby Legends graded |
40s | we pick up sleepy in his second game of |
43s | the day in the semi-finals Lobby playing |
45s | a nazoth with beasts now we all know how |
48s | this goes right you find yourself some |
50s | death rattles to stabilize and you pick |
52s | up some leapers you triple into a baron |
54s | you start tossing frogs left right and |
56s | Center well not sleepy sleepy instead |
59s | leans hard into an ad cards to your hand |
61s | Quest by picking up a pashmar and using |
64s | blood gem Synergy to juice his fish into |
67s | a lean mean hand filling machine this is |
70s | lesson number one in Sleepy nomics he |
72s | never quite does what conventional |
74s | wisdom dictates he quite literally hits |
77s | different |
78s | fast forward a few turns and sleepy |
80s | after rapid fire completing his quest |
82s | has the reward in play pilfered lamps |
85s | now has used that incredible power Spike |
87s | to hard transition into a thistle Naga |
90s | scaling once again the takeaway here is |
92s | how unconventional this is minimal |
94s | beasts no leapers however the fish is |
96s | still being used to great effect by |
98s | picking up a full golden gas coiler |
100s | death rattle he milks a ton of value |
102s | from his pashma and by using a LeRoy up |
105s | front the fish also gains functional |
107s | poison destroying whatever kills it this |
109s | is Sleepy 101 the board looks like a |
112s | collection of random cards but in his |
113s | brain he's created perfect Synergy it's |
117s | beautiful |
119s | so to the final fight as sleepy takes |
122s | down the lobby what's awesome here is |
124s | that even Beyond his unconventional |
125s | board he's adapted it on the Fly against |
128s | different opponents previously when |
130s | fighting against deflecto Mech boards he |
132s | moved his gas coiler up further and used |
134s | an early Leroy on all of the summons |
136s | from the coiler to decimate all of the |
137s | opponent's Divine Shields before the |
139s | Heavy Hitters come into play moving into |
141s | a final fight against another Naga board |
143s | however he recognizes that Leroy and |
145s | poison are far more important and so |
148s | adjusts the board accordingly securing |
150s | his own Divine shield and poison attacks |
152s | early to shut down as many big minions |
154s | as possible forget about that sack of |
157s | lamps Reno should be pilfering this game |
159s | and putting it in a museum oh it's a |
162s | Leroy Leroy that's big all right so it's |
166s | a tie at least Leroy got Divine Shield I |
169s | think sloopy's got this I think so too |
171s | yeah yeah the lero is just too difficult |
174s | lero trade one uh uh one for one and |
177s | then Ashley will trade two for two or |
179s | two for one so yeah |
182s | that's it |
183s | he barely wins |
186s | just when I thought I was out they |
188s | pulled me back in Sleepy just can't get |
191s | enough of that golden pashma action just |
194s | a quick visit here to make a point of an |
196s | issue many of us probably struggle with |
198s | sleepy has an early game Tempo quest in |
200s | Hidden dagger and so the Dilemma then |
203s | becomes how do you transition out of |
204s | your early death rattle scaling into |
207s | something that actually wins a high |
208s | level Lobby pashmar is the out here |
210s | allowing him once again to transition |
212s | into heavy late game scaling with a |
214s | thyssa although this game does not end |
216s | in a victory it's a great lesson in |
218s | Sleepy's mentality he's never settled on |
221s | the composition he has he's always |
223s | keeping late game transition options |
225s | open much more on that later |
229s | oh this game this game where do you even |
232s | start uh well here apparently sleepy has |
236s | secrets in stone active on Elise one of |
239s | the most powerful synergies available |
240s | power levels to six and starts rolling |
242s | hero Powers looking for win conditions |
244s | right away sleepy brain kicks in and he |
247s | absolutely swerves everyone double |
250s | overseer on the board and he's offered |
253s | double fell back but turns it down for |
255s | double what is going on here |
257s | well you can ask the man himself but I |
259s | would imagine looking at the lobby |
260s | makeup he suspects that demons have a |
262s | little bit too much work to do to |
264s | compete with all the Divine Shields that |
266s | are going to come at him from Mech |
267s | boards in the lobby and so he decides to |
269s | go into Divine Shield scaling himself |
271s | remember this board by the way remember |
274s | where we started |
276s | we get through one turn of relative |
278s | normalcy as sleepy picks up some omega |
280s | Busters and other Divine Shields to |
282s | start to build out a pretty impressive |
284s | looking Mech board but then this |
287s | happened sleepy hits an orgazord which |
289s | admittedly is the number one hit you're |
291s | looking for with secret sinstone and |
293s | guess what it's Naga time again baby out |
296s | of nowhere it's a full transition out of |
298s | the mix golden grease spot get out of |
301s | here and then just watch the Panic APM |
303s | set in on the last few actions of the |
305s | turn as he's able to secure the clutch |
308s | sequence of compounding triples into |
310s | finally finding the double Queen he |
312s | needs to secure the fight and complete |
314s | the transition this is absolutely |
316s | staggering and remember we were demons |
320s | two turns ago oh |
325s | but then what how does this culminate |
327s | what are we moving towards |
331s | transition |
334s | ridiculous |
335s | I love this man |
339s | oh |
344s | I want another one |
347s | Miss that's a completeness |
361s | oh man if he hits orcas over there's |
363s | like so much more stuff he can do oh |
365s | that's a triple Crystal |
368s | TJ doesn't have time |
371s | oh landed together mantis down |
375s | oh I did it that's insane okay good |
378s | enough good evening look at that look at |
380s | that that sigh from Sleepy he's like oh |
382s | my gosh what a transition though like |
385s | compare this board to last turn this is |
387s | unrecognizable |
390s | and one more quick one there is so much |
393s | going on this turn from both a macro |
395s | strategy standpoint and from a micro |
398s | execution standpoint point one why on |
401s | Earth has he bought a hogger well |
403s | because this is sleepy and sleepy is |
405s | never happy to just say okay I'm beasts |
407s | let's play beasts sleepy always wants to |
410s | be open to transition to a stronger |
412s | build and the strongest thing you can be |
415s | almost by definition in a pirate Lobby |
417s | is infinite gold hogar with wisdom ball |
420s | in particular the board duplication role |
422s | in the shop is a hogar's best friend |
424s | which is where the micro kicks in Sleepy |
427s | immediately drops the hogar on board and |
430s | starts rolling looking for the |
431s | duplication finds a gambler then as soon |
434s | as he's certain he can replace one |
435s | minion of his board he puts the Gambler |
438s | in play before rolling any further |
440s | meaning if he hits the dupe roll he'd |
443s | hit hogger and gambler for massive |
445s | economy game I've said this before on |
447s | graded but infinite gold is infinite |
449s | gold if you can and hit it and you're |
451s | skilled enough in executing you can |
453s | always transition to something stronger |
455s | than what you have although the dream |
458s | never quite comes to fruition for sleepy |
460s | here I absolutely adore the way this |
463s | game was played there's not on the board |
465s | anymore right oh is there not okay mate |
466s | they're not in the shop anymore roll |
468s | that shop away oh sorry I thought you |
470s | bought another one yeah okay I think you |
472s | can reborn this uh one of these gas |
475s | coilers solve the hogger get rid of the |
477s | dream |
479s | oh are the dream's alive oh boy that's |
483s | the shop that is the shop baby he's just |
486s | got to survive |
489s | and so to how it all ended in |
493s | heartbreaking fashion sleepy fell victim |
496s | to the another hidden body curse and had |
498s | his turn cut short by animations at the |
501s | most pivotal of moments now this is |
504s | normally where overly critical subtle |
506s | would show up push-up is non-existent |
508s | glasses and say well actually you know |
510s | the animation is there and you know how |
512s | long it takes this is me doing a mocking |
514s | impression of myself for some reason |
516s | very meta same plan around that |
518s | accordingly and don't get caught out and |
521s | well yes I do agree with Nerds Auto over |
525s | there to an extent asking sleepy to do |
528s | that is somewhat antithetical to |
530s | everything we've seen in this video so |
532s | far sleepy doesn't just play it safe |
534s | sleepy goes for it sleepy pushes the |
537s | boundaries and after watching this whole |
539s | tournament I don't think any of us would |
541s | have it any other way this ending sucks |
544s | but my hat goes off to sleepy for what I |
547s | think is one of the best individual |
548s | performances is we've seen so far in |
