912s | qualifier for the APAC region I'm |
914s | Excelsior pH and with me is moon boy and |
917s | we are here back for the action after |
920s | like the last seasonals that we have |
922s | casted together moon boy how are you |
924s | doing man well it has been a very long |
927s | time and there's so much happening in |
929s | runtera that we didn't cover so far and |
932s | this is actually our very first world |
934s | qualifiers for the Apec region and |
937s | there's lots of changes coming in and it |
939s | feels like a brand new game as of right |
940s | now right yeah it feels like a very |
942s | brand new game and a lot of changes have |
944s | occurred we have seen the meta shift in |
947s | a very different way but the rootero |
950s | community knows how to do it very well |
952s | and we have seen lots of action or lots |
955s | of tournaments over the past few weeks |
957s | and you know they have adapted quite |
960s | well I've seen some changes that um you |
963s | know that still skewing towards a |
965s | certain archetype but uh me Macy some |
968s | players here that will be possibly |
971s | targeting that archetype and I I feel |
974s | you know what I'm talking about mobile |
975s | like there's like one or two Decks that |
978s | are very dominating in The Meta right |
980s | now and in the tournament meta maybe we |
983s | may see some uh uh the spicy decks as |
985s | well that may Target depth right yep for |
988s | sure I think the main decks to actually |
990s | look out for is your space Samira and |
994s | also anything Tristana right Tristana |
996s | the master Tristana builds water to |
998s | Tristana noxus as there's so much |
1000s | flexibility coming in with this yodels |
1002s | deck especially and this Samira was |
1005s | there to say about it right there's lots |
1007s | of variation when it comes to |
1009s | um this deck as well there's lots |
1010s | there's a variation of the bubble fish |
1012s | there's a variation of the pandemonium |
1015s | as well so there's so many ways to |
1018s | actually play around these two decks and |
1020s | play with these two decks and that's at |
1022s | the same time there's multiple ways to |
1024s | actually counter them as well these are |
1025s | the little bit more aggressive on the |
1027s | aggressive department but what about the |
1029s | control Department Excel so what do you |
1030s | think is gonna be coming out you know I |
1032s | was thinking about the nasus a while ago |
1034s | like maybe there's some point that this |
1037s | will be possibly used in the tournament |
1038s | beta maybe we can see some deep decks |
1041s | yeah right oh boy like uh my personal |
1043s | favorite I've been playing deep ever |
1044s | since it was available in legends of |
1047s | rentera um how about um what do you |
1049s | think about the the very RNG favorite |
1052s | Nora deck one boy like how cool is that |
1056s | I've seen that work like the Nora Nar uh |
1059s | combination uh the portals just really |
1060s | work for me uh especially since this is |
1064s | the champion that is uh runeterra |
1067s | exclusive right |
1069s | yep and Nora like you know there's lots |
1071s | of variation |
1074s | or even Nora um SI right Shadow house |
1077s | and Nora Powell itself is is filled with |
1080s | so much control right especially with |
1082s | the SI variant I believe that might be |
1084s | the variant that players will be coming |
1086s | in a lot more with and there's so much |
1088s | you know removals there's Vengeance |
1090s | there's silence there's quietest and and |
1093s | stacked together with the RNG from the |
1096s | portals of Nora like you know you could |
1097s | have so many more uh like you know you |
1100s | can fill up your board as well and |
1102s | there's a little bit of aggression |
1103s | coming in from that deck to finish you |
1104s | off so yeah Nora is is coming in pretty |
1107s | hot as well but not forgetting Karma |
1110s | Seth said one of the new cards that got |
1112s | released this set as well so what do you |
1114s | think of Seth man uh sad it's just uh |
1117s | abs for me man it's like I've seen uh |
1120s | Karma Santa pop off especially when the |
1122s | uh enlightened is already activated but |
1125s | yeah man I've seen at the work in some |
1128s | of the uh of the tournaments or side of |
1131s | the the streams that I've seen but uh I |
1133s | have yet to see it um you know um |
1135s | dominate in the tournament battle you |
1137s | can see more of the other ones the other |
1139s | decks we have just mentioned but of |
1141s | course I want to see of course uh boy |
1144s | what these guys are going to be fighting |
1147s | for in this tournament like how much of |
1150s | how much are they fighting for and like |
1152s | what's the coveted spot that they're |
1154s | fighting for right now ball boy yep so |
1156s | let's just take a look at this ladies |
1158s | and gentlemen today we got 64 players |
1160s | coming in after a long 10 plus hours of |
1164s | Gauntlet yesterday to achieve their 64 |
1166s | slot right here players will be bringing |
1168s | three different decks with no duplicate |
1170s | Champions and no duplicate region |
1173s | combination and no other than one deck |
1175s | without any Champions at all players ban |
1177s | one of their opponents deck before the |
1179s | match begin and players cannot use a |
1181s | deck again after winning a deck with it |
1183s | each tournament round lasts for |
1184s | 65-minute ACT maximum and after the 65 |
1188s | minute Mark everything will be time out |
1190s | yes and with that as well these are the |
1192s | rewards for the first place you're gonna |
1194s | get 18 room Terror points with the 5 000 |
1197s | US Dollars and what's special about that |
1199s | is you will get a World's invite amazing |
1202s | top on placement second place will get |
1204s | 15 points with 2 500 US dollars in terms |
1207s | of the price money and third fourth will |
1210s | get 12 retire points 750 USD 58 will get |
1214s | nine year pair points 250 USD as well so |
1217s | any any placement after that will not |
1220s | get USD but in terms of the points 9 to |
1222s | 16 7 Rooter points 17 to 30 seconds five |
1226s | repair points and 33rd to 64th three |
1229s | runtera points so all of these guys are |
1231s | basically winning in their own effort |
1233s | but of course if you want to get a chunk |
1236s | of the USD you have to get eight and top |
1239s | as well so amazing that we get to see |
1242s | that a lot of the prices are still in |
1244s | Tech |
1245s | um comparing it to the seasonals there's |
1247s | a uh the top one it will get lower but |
1250s | well we're seeing it we're gonna get a |
1252s | lot of prices as well distributed over |
1254s | from our players right now moon boy yeah |
1257s | for sure right the players 64 players |
1259s | coming in is not just gunning for the |
1261s | 5000 USD right they are gunning for that |
1264s | one final one slot one confirmed slot in |
1268s | the world championship later on in the |
1269s | year so and this is our very first world |
1271s | qualifier for this year and you know get |
1275s | securing your slot this early really |
1277s | really is going to make a big difference |
1278s | coming in for the season |
1280s | yes and then of course uh as we have |
1283s | seen a while ago 64 players have already |
1285s | checked in so far those of you guys who |
1286s | are wait listed you know sad sad to say |
1290s | like you will have to wait a little bit |
1292s | longer for the next qualifiers because |
1293s | you will not have a chance to join in |
1296s | because 64 players have already been in |
1300s | or ingressed into the tournament as well |
1302s | and we have seen some familiar names |
1304s | like like I'm not gonna be |
1306s | um you know I'm not gonna how do you say |
1308s | this is spoil it a bit but I'm seeing |
1310s | some usuals like every seasonals they've |
1314s | been there right one boy |
1316s | yeah for sure right we have seen a few |
1318s | like familiar names coming in Aurora |
1320s | roughterra Korean fish Kam dong Rubik |
1324s | Sora Benny Keith Kaizen these are just |
1326s | the few that |
1327s | um we have actually spotted and these |
1329s | are all all players right all the way |
1331s | from from beta season and and all the |
1333s | way till today and they are still |
1335s | running strong and these players are not |
1337s | the players that you want to mess around |
1338s | with because they have a packed ton of |
1340s | experience to actually you know pilot |
1343s | this game around yes and the talking |
1345s | about the world's uh for all of our day |
1346s | one I was actually watching some streams |
1349s | as well and um I was actually watching |
1351s | Bandit Keith right it's like he was |
1354s | playing with I think he went 9-1 or uh |
1357s | yeah or something like uh with one loss |
1359s | as well some amazing run from our player |
1362s | of uh from a blck or Blacklist |
1365s | International some of the other deals |
1367s | are have also been represented over at |
1369s | the APAC region which is very good |
1371s | because we have seen the uh the |
1373s | legendary Community Thrive throughout |
1376s | these a seasons and how old is Roger |
1379s | right now it's like |
1383s | amazing as we got to the year three |
1386s | right now rotations have been gotten in |
1388s | and what do you think man uh have any of |
1390s | your decks been hit by the rotation like |
1392s | rotation |
1393s | oh every single of my deck have been hit |
1397s | Excel sir right the removal the rotation |
1399s | of decimate really decimated me like |
1403s | like every single Ergo form of deck is |
1407s | is removed or even like you know the |
1408s | style have to be a little bit changed up |
1410s | as well so I think the more um common |
1413s | Cuts or the more noticeable cut that |
1415s | actually got rotated the cards like |
1416s | decimate sharpside uh concerted strike |
1419s | right |
1420s | um cuts even like vowel fees and and |
1423s | this uh call cuts from you know since |
1425s | the very start of the game and with this |
1427s | Cuts actually being removed and rotated |
1429s | out of format and and you know players |
1432s | actually have to adapt to what this |
1433s | style is today which is pretty |
1435s | interesting but how about you how the |
1436s | rotation actually |
1438s | um you know affected you in any ways |
1439s | yeah I mean a lot of my decks have |
1442s | already been have already been hit as |
1443s | well but of course I would I was |
1445s | actually focusing like when you said |
1447s | sharp side a while ago like I was |
1448s | thinking okay the sharpside was gone |
1450s | blocking Badger barrier it seems to be |
1452s | you know the uh the staple as a |
1456s | replacement for that uh for that missing |
1459s | part but oh I've seen it's like you know |
1461s | in terms of the cards that have been MVP |
1463s | that have been MVP in the current meta |
1466s | um for for me it I think it's price |
1469s | fight how about you for you man moon boy |
1471s | well uh yeah price fight is definitely |
1473s | one of the key cards coming in right and |
1475s | like there's so much value just putting |
1477s | your opponent down to at least one |
1479s | Health but I think the main The Good the |
1483s | best addition for me in this expansion |
1484s | is coin |
1489s | value coming in as especially stacked |
1492s | together with karma when she's |
1493s | enlightened and that's basically getting |
1495s | double coin double value every single |
1497s | turn and that is just all value right |
1499s | when it comes to Legend of Legends of |
1500s | Frontera value is everything Mana is |
1503s | everything and coin literally provided |
1505s | this much value as we'll say right coin |
1507s | is equal to money money is value what's |
1509s | that to say about this get the gold guys |
1511s | yeah what is Mana anyway but a uh a |
1515s | construct of our mind we're playing car |
1518s | myself like |
1519s | um you're like it's like you know when |
1521s | usually play Karma said like what's |
1523s | better yeah |
1527s | guys like that's gonna be happening uh |
1530s | for days and you can actually destroy |
1532s | your opponent uh as soon as you get |
1534s | enlightened but yeah I mean I'm uh |
1537s | already excited as to our first feature |
1541s | match who will be uh who do you think uh |
1543s | which uh will be the first feature match |
1545s | right now boy |
1547s | I believe the first feature map is |
1549s | matches Aurora versus beta right yeah so |
1552s | the first match is Aurora going against |
1553s | Peta |
1554s | um Aurora I believe is one of the best |
1557s | player right he is one of the previous |
1559s | Seasons we know I believe we've casted a |
1561s | few of his game previously as well so |
1563s | this guy and his part of Blacklist |
1566s | International right now and and you know |
1568s | stacked together with his teammates his |
1570s | Practice Mate he himself is a very good |
1572s | player and that's just going to be a |
1574s | really exciting game to watch um for our |
1576s | very first round |
1577s | is going to be nice very exciting game |
1579s | for the first round and I'm really |
1580s | excited to see which decks they're going |
1582s | to be playing but again we have seen The |
1585s | Usual Suspects of mirror fist oh okay |
1587s | let's go let's get into it okay |
1590s | um okay uh I like I like I like what I'm |
1594s | seeing right now I'm seeing a Karma |
1595s | right there on the middle I'm seeing all |
1598s | over at the left oh Caitlyn Jace |
1605s | this is gonna work because this is |
1608s | basically a targeting uh uh targeting |
1611s | deck especially with the SI combination |
1613s | but yeah of course yeah I mean how do |
1616s | you think this is gonna work man over at |
1617s | the right is mostly going to be a uh an |
1620s | aggro deck especially with a stylish |
1622s | shot jacket butcher it's like blunder |
1624s | deck that we're seeing on the right but |
1625s | over at the left it looks kind of |
1628s | different I've not seen this uh over at |
1631s | my ladder place or over at the the |
1634s | tournaments what do you think man yeah |
1636s | for sure right the the |
1638s | cat cat Jace Caitlyn Jace like goodness |
1642s | like we always say hamading a jizz the |
1644s | whole time right getting the value of |
1646s | Hyman Dinger is what he's actually |
1647s | looking out for but I like this edition |
1649s | of Caitlyn right like you're playing |
1651s | around with the flashbawn mechanics so |
1653s | actually do more damage so it's a little |
1655s | bit more offensive when it comes to a |
1657s | comparison to the high Medina variation |
1659s | and I'm not really sure how this |
1661s | actually would work out but Aurora made |
1663s | it to you know um day two with this |
1665s | particular deck list so we will see you |
1667s | know how this actually could |
1669s | could play out and you know I'm not sure |
1672s | if he did pilot this one in day number |
1673s | one but this might be spicy Tech coming |
1675s | into game day number two but something |
1677s | that you know um that is pretty |
1679s | interesting or like you know pretty |
1681s | consistent when it comes to a control |
1683s | um like control deck that you're |
1685s | actually coming in is that Karma set |
1687s | right like this is a very |
1688s | straightforward one and um it's |
1690s | basically just trying to Checkmate you |
1692s | with those Ionia cuts |
1694s | a very uh nice Decks that we were seeing |
1697s | right now and of course over at the |
1698s | right it's your basic package that we're |
1700s | seeing uh some mirror right there uh |
1703s | with uh the uh the the plunder package |
1706s | you're seeing Samira Fizz uh getting uh |
1708s | the the value right there and with your |
1710s | uh Samira of his the fist gets basically |
1713s | won't be targeted as easily and it will |
1716s | everything would just get destroyed if |
1718s | you keep on targeting because you always |
1720s | have to have those cheap spells and |
1722s | those cheap slash burst spells as well |
1725s | will also be important yeah to make sure |
1728s | that he gets into a flipping condition |
1731s | right there and of course Samira as well |
1733s | uh if you do get to use or use or play |
1736s | at least six uh when it's turned this |
1738s | would be able to flip uh that's a mirror |
1741s | as well and we would like to see that go |
1744s | into sword riding action after |
1746s | submitters I think one of possibly one |
1748s | of the best flipping uh how do you say |
1751s | the splitting movies flipping short |
1753s | films for yeah |
1755s | I mean this is a pretty pretty solid |
1758s | deck moving forward as well powder |
1759s | pandemonium is definitely the finale |
1762s | when it comes to this particular deck |
1763s | but you know I'm not sure what Peta is |
1766s | actually bringing in this um into this |
1768s | round as well but you know definitely |
1770s | I'm Gonna Be Seeing uh Samira fish being |
1772s | banned out because this is basically a |
1773s | deck that runs hot by itself and there's |
1775s | no way to actually counter react to it |
1778s | yeah it's it's really fast and uh it |
1781s | really hits hard and fast as well but |
1783s | you know uh well we can we can see that |
1786s | we might get into a kind of a |
1788s | quote-unquote long game so to speak |
1791s | because we have seen some more control e |
1794s | decks uh coming from the side of uh |
1796s | Aurora right there but it all depends on |
1799s | them what better is going to be carrying |
1800s | right and uh if you were just joining uh |
1803s | in Legend of there are you when you |
1805s | start to join a tournament you would |
1806s | have three decks and one of them would |
1808s | be banned that means one of them would |
1809s | not be get used and if you do get to win |
1813s | with one deck that deck is not going to |
1815s | be used like you're going to be have to |
1817s | win with one remaining deck so that's |
1819s | going to be how you're going to be |
1820s | playing in a tournament and we're going |
1822s | to be seeing it right here in the |
1824s | world's qualifier for Apec and uh we're |
1826s | just waiting for their uh their uh their |
1829s | Dex is gonna be playing but what do you |
1831s | think uh we're just going to be |
1832s | speculating right here I feel |
1835s | um it's gonna be uh there's no Tristana |
1837s | here so so I feel there's going to be a |
1839s | Tristana right there that's going to be |
1841s | played by Peta |
1843s | I feel that there's still going to be a |
1845s | severe fist but okay we just got uh |
1849s | loaded in and we are seeing a nasus |
1853s | vegar there you go man nasus is right |
1855s | back over at the first deck for PETA and |
1858s | there you go Tristana it's right there |
1859s | on the mid and over at the right the jar |
1862s | j4 Garen oh Kaiser J for Garen this is |
1867s | mean I mean Moon Boy The Meta has |
1871s | Diversified starting from round one and |
1875s | from the game one that we're going to be |
1877s | you know spectating already a very wide |
1881s | meta what do you think about this lineup |
1883s | man yeah I mean we were previously |
1885s | talking about you know how interesting |
1887s | this matter is like there's a lot of |
1889s | different decks and in fact both teams |
1891s | of even both players coming in with |
1893s | totally different um style of decks |
1895s | right and it looks like Peta is going in |
1897s | a little bit more of a mid-range kind of |
1899s | scenario with the uh the master deck |
1901s | especially in this format where the |
1903s | martial don't really have much support |
1905s | um when it comes to really good Cuts or |
1907s | even premium cards right so they are all |
1909s | playing with |
1910s | um this new iteration of Kaiser that is |
1912s | recently got um revived as well so this |
1915s | is a really strong neck coming forward |
1917s | with like multiple attacks and doing |
1918s | what the mafia does and the uh Tristana |
1922s | and that's something like you know we |
1924s | usually get to see a one-off Teemo but |
1925s | in in instead you know removing the |
1927s | Teemo put the gunar in to actually have |
1929s | a little bit more consistency so he's |
1932s | gonna be you know um you know expanding |
1934s | his board going in with a swamp or even |
1936s | like Zoo style format to actually zero |
1939s | him off |
1940s | yeah and what's good about this like you |
1942s | know when you get that battle gang Bando |
1944s | Gunners uh propped in right now with the |
1947s | 3M pack as well that's gonna be a lot |
1949s | faster and I I remember the right deck |
1952s | man uh the one that the uh the j4 uh |
1954s | Garen uh with the guys as well I think |
1957s | uh there's a variation that has been |
1959s | used by Aragorn over at the show show |
1961s | match for Gloria navori and this uh Team |
1964s | Samira uh my team just got wrecked by |
1966s | this single deck man all of uh all of |
1969s | our final decks have been ruined by one |
1972s | deck so Aragorn just went 4-0 with this |
1975s | deck against us so this could be a |
1978s | strong counter especially for token |
1979s | decks right now if you have tokens that |
1982s | can be destroyed easily uh this will be |
1984s | a uh a no-brainer but now we can see uh |
1988s | Peta going in with a as uh wait this is |
1993s | the is this uh NASA is going up against |
1997s | a face Samira I think it's backwards |
2000s | yeah yeah okay I was thinking like |
2003s | Samira fist was uh Aurora's dick so I |
2005s | think it's backwards like uh a flip yeah |
2007s | so okay so we are now seeing a an early |
2011s | attack or we are now we now see that the |
2014s | uh uh the flipped the flipped Fizz is |
2018s | already activated right now |
2021s | oh there you go |
2022s | so I mean looking at the bot state that |
2025s | Aurora have at the moment is pretty |
2027s | strong right there's nothing much that |
2030s | um that this Peta could actually do his |
2032s | fight coming in just to remove the two |
2034s | one there's no way that he could Target |
2036s | the fist as of right now right there's |
2038s | Mana open you always have to respect |
2040s | um this able to counter his his move so |
2043s | you know this is going to be a |
2044s | consistent three damage coming forward |
2045s | every single turn so what path I have to |
2048s | do right now is actually you know just |
2050s | um start we just have to have more units |
2052s | compared to what Aurora have a 3-3 |
2054s | coming down and that's gonna be adding |
2056s | so much pressure for Aurora moving |
2058s | forward as well |
2064s | you can see that there's already a big |
2067s | eight eight and this is going to be kind |
2068s | of a big threat but look at that Soul |
2071s | Harvest destroys the jagged butcher |
2073s | right there and it's gonna be down to |
2076s | the 2-2 and the 3-2 and this is gonna be |
2079s | uh oh it's no longer Peta so we're going |
2081s | to suit with super |
2083s | okay so this is what we're gonna be |
2085s | saying super we're going to go from now |
2087s | the super player right now and now of |
2090s | course that targeting is gonna be |
2092s | bringing down Aurora's uh Aurora's units |
2096s | down up to two this is gonna be hard |
2098s | because once nasus has already been out |
2101s | and once he already gets flipped there's |
2103s | gonna be a global or rather a uh a minus |
2108s | in terms of the uh total damage that's |
2110s | going to be coming from Aurora side so |
2112s | Aurora will be possibly uh more focused |
2115s | on trying to deal uh Nexus damage and |
2119s | wow okay this is gonna be a big attack |
2122s | coming in from super uh blue boy yeah I |
2125s | mean this is this effect coming right |
2126s | here would secure NASA's the the flip |
2129s | right so yeah you know it actually |
2131s | forces to uh for Aurora to actually take |
2133s | six damage right here which Aurora |
2135s | actually literally did and you know at |
2137s | 11th is to six right now there's nothing |
2139s | much that Aurora could do but however |
2141s | that double |
2142s | um stylish shot like that could actually |
2145s | put him over the edge right stylish shot |
2146s | stylish shot into a fist attack that |
2149s | that could secure a what five damage |
2151s | moving forward but Aurora have to find |
2153s | out how to actually find the additional |
2155s | six more damage moving in yes he got the |
2158s | um the face you know the playful |
2159s | trickster to actually have a rally but |
2162s | it looks a little bit tough moving |
2163s | forward for Aurora to actually find that |
2165s | sex Mana but you know this might be the |
2167s | final turn that he is um and this is |
2169s | wrong yeah he can go for like three and |
2172s | he'll go for |
2174s | um uh like a rally as you said but I |
2177s | feel there's not gonna be enough that's |
2179s | going to be coming in you do have that |
2181s | uh wiring shot right there playful |
2183s | trickster and oh sad oh my gosh and it's |
2188s | gonna get destroyed like Maybe okay so |
2190s | he's not gonna be |
2193s | like nasus to go in uh deal that damage |
2195s | the playful trickster is gonna be |
2197s | bringing back as well but no this is not |
2200s | the way right super is gonna be |
2203s | definitely having the advantage over at |
2205s | Aurora over over Aurora because you know |
2209s | the nasus is one uh one unit that you |
2213s | you cannot deny right there and he |
2215s | doesn't have any answer for that big 11 |
2217s | 11 unit |
2218s | yeah for sure and you know right here |
2220s | with Aurora getting that rally he got |
2223s | that quicksand on to |
2224s | um the fist but that also didn't secure |
2226s | him to return the slightly shot back |
2228s | into his hand because no Nexus damage |
2230s | has been done so far yes he got the |
2232s | warning to actually get the slightly |
2233s | shots stylish shot back and that only |
2236s | secured him like what three more damage |
2238s | and Aurora can't find the additional sex |
2240s | more damage with this this being at zero |
2242s | zero attack as of right now there's |
2244s | nothing that Aurora could do and this |
2245s | might be Checkmate for him right here |
2248s | look at that uh adding insult to injury |
2251s | the rekindler re-summons a what |
2257s | oh my gosh that's that's like saying |
2260s | okay I got you bro I got you bro just |
2262s | surrender that's it and but now he's |
2265s | gonna be dealing the uh the official of |
2268s | course finishing hit right here and uh |
2271s | look at that powder pandemonium may be |
2273s | drawn out or maybe used but of course |
2275s | there's gonna be an open attack and this |
2278s | is it already one win from Super against |
2282s | the Samira Fizz of Aurora and we've been |
2286s | talking about this a while ago boy like |
2287s | uh the the nasus deck has a lot of |
2291s | removals that's why I think uh any low |
2294s | low Health low token |
2297s | um low Health tokens can be easily |
2299s | removed and that would also help nasus |
2301s | grow up grow bigger uh down the line and |
2305s | of course you know with the balls of |
2307s | hella and the the the badger bear that |
2310s | can be uh the salmon and I mean the bear |
2313s | they can be Summit it's gonna be |
2315s | flipping over into another unit it's |
2318s | consisted this consistent AF if I say so |
2321s | myself yeah it's fairly one of the most |
2323s | consistent deck in The Meta so far but |
2325s | based on statistics though right this |
2327s | piece of mirror actually have a |
2329s | 71.85 win rate going up against mono |
2332s | nessus |
2333s | so you know super usually um you know |
2336s | with the nesters it might not have a |
2337s | good win rate so I'm not sure how like |
2340s | you know this could actually |
2342s | um allow you know how why Aurora would |
2345s | actually lose right there but I'm not |
2346s | very sure um you know how we did we |
2349s | actually did miss the first three turn |
2350s | maybe Aurora didn't draw very well but |
2352s | that's just really unfortunate for |
2353s | Aurora to lose game number one but we're |
2355s | moving straight right to game number two |
2357s | I believe it's going to be Echo Jinx |
2359s | moving forward from Super |
2361s | be a different uh lineup right here we |
2364s | now see the Fearsome three two over at |
2366s | the side of Aurora side he may be going |
2369s | for a a free attack right there just to |
2372s | get in some damage but of course there's |
2374s | gonna be another one a jagged butcher |
2376s | initially blockable right there but oh |
2379s | look at that missing shot is going to be |
2381s | targeting the 3-2 down and three three |
2384s | will possibly be blocked by the back |
2385s | high right there and that's going to be |
2387s | an effective block coming in from Super |
2391s | Lucky prevented a lot of damage with |
2394s | that lineup right there boom boy yep I |
2396s | mean going up against a deck like you |
2399s | know face a mirror you don't really want |
2401s | to take those early damage because that |
2402s | is where they capitalize and you might |
2404s | not know when the powder pandemonium |
2406s | could actually |
2407s | um punish you later on into the game as |
2409s | well so what super is actually trying to |
2411s | do just limit Aurora's board and not |
2413s | allowing him to do as much as possible |
2415s | just take a look at Aurora's hand right |
2417s | now there's not much units that he could |
2419s | push off this turn and with this amount |
2422s | of pressure coming in from Super Aurora |
2424s | might be feeling a little bit you know |
2426s | um a little bit back and this is a big |
2428s | swing coming in from Super and I believe |
2430s | this is going to be the only block that |
2432s | he could do for damage going straight |
2433s | right to him at only turn 3. yes big |
2436s | swing indeed uh this is why now you can |
2439s | see that the uh the echo drinks of uh or |
2443s | that or the the borders right there get |
2445s | summoned as well coming in from the |
2446s | predicts they are they are really strong |
2448s | in the sense that you get to cycle out |
2450s | those cards after getting them drawn out |
2453s | but look at this the first uh Champion |
2455s | being drawn out by Aurora going into |
2457s | Samira and now this is quite attempting |
2461s | to go into the attack of course you |
2463s | would uh risk at getting it uh damaged |
2465s | as well he would uh also want the flare |
2468s | to go in and Target the uh the Nexus as |
2472s | much as possible but let's see if he |
2474s | will be focusing yes there you go but |
2476s | the three attack will possibly not be |
2479s | used |
2481s | uh that's a big Swindle coming in for |
2483s | Aurora right just literally seeing the |
2485s | whole of Super's hand and you know |
2488s | seeing two Sky sand and one quick send |
2490s | like triple cent in his hand and that |
2492s | actually wants Aurora do not attack this |
2495s | round and this might be you know a good |
2497s | sign that he's actually for looking out |
2499s | for immediately going straight right for |
2501s | the elegant Edge just not allowing the |
2503s | bakai to actually go for the block and |
2504s | you know he could still go try to go for |
2506s | the swing for the with this Samira to |
2508s | get the flare once more but I don't |
2510s | think Super is gonna allow that to |
2511s | happen |
2512s | yeah it's not going to be that that case |
2515s | right there but the one Nexus is going |
2516s | to be one damage to the Nexus is gonna |
2519s | be down the line but yeah amazing uh |
2522s | read right there uh with this window to |
2525s | get the and he got quick stands right |
2527s | there oh his crying Sans is going to be |
2529s | used as well oh look at that that's just |
2534s | basically saying okay do not attack do |
2536s | not attack because you're good you're |
2539s | gonna get wrecked and of course another |
2540s | one this is gonna be quite exciting as |
2544s | to which card is he going to be |
2547s | predicting that's basically saying okay |
2548s | I don't have any more cards right now I |
2550s | need a unit and an echo has been gone |
2554s | out oh man Chrono break this is already |
2558s | flipped right there moon boy and this is |
2561s | you know this is looking quite focused |
2564s | or quite um how do you say this uh |
2566s | geared towards Super Side |
2569s | yeah and this actually is a great stun |
2571s | coming in from Aurora right not allowing |
2573s | him to get that predict and draw that uh |
2576s | and and this actually you know limits |
2577s | Super's play and what what super really |
2580s | need to find right now is you know he |
2582s | needs to dig into his um Jinx right his |
2584s | his hand is running low he needs Jinx to |
2586s | get those draw Power ready to go and |
2588s | without you know um the the echo to |
2591s | actually allow him to find the Jinx and |
2594s | and that might actually put him on the |
2595s | back foot right now and Aurora is ready |
2597s | to go for the push once again another |
2599s | Swindle to actually get a second copy of |
2601s | quicksand or even to check what is that |
2603s | second card in the sand but I don't |
2604s | think it's the right time to actually |
2606s | use this window right now just go for |
2607s | the swing and just add more pressure |
2609s | onto Super's Lexus |
2611s | yes there's possibly one the two three |
2614s | four five seven damage that may be used |
2616s | but that fearsome is not gonna be |
2618s | blocked by any of those low attack units |
2621s | only the uh the echo will be possible |
2624s | but of course we might see super use a |
2627s | quick set there you go to decrease the |
2629s | attack and there it is the keywords have |
2633s | been removed and you can see the bakai |
2635s | uh block that uh two two right there and |
2639s | one two the Samira has also been uh |
2642s | removed of its keywords that the the |
2645s | echo versus Samira the champion versus |
2646s | Champion Echo will be winning here so |
2649s | this you know super has been doing quite |
2652s | well and but you know the downside of it |
2655s | he's running out of gas right running |
2657s | out of gas in nowhere uh no |
2661s | um units to be found on the horizon |
2670s | oh you're muted right now uh I think |
2674s | oh sorry so I mean he could might as |
2676s | fall off the Samira and actually |
2678s | um and I might as well on the Echo and I |
2681s | actually saved some mirror from doing |
2682s | anything like you know from from going |
2684s | down this turn but instead he's letting |
2686s | this attack go through and allowing Echo |
2689s | to actually have a Time Time trick and |
2691s | this way you know he could he could find |
2693s | himself that drinks that he is looking |
2694s | for and he could potentially level up |
2696s | the jinx this turn as well let's just |
2697s | see what this time trick could bring him |
2699s | this then yes this is gonna be a a |
2702s | useful card to get up right there let's |
2705s | see what oh there it is |
2707s | plus uh plus to attack oh this is adding |
2712s | you know a layer of insurance for a |
2715s | super right now look at the total impact |
2717s | that we might have over at the next uh |
2720s | attacking round but he's uh but Aurora |
2722s | is going to be summoning a powder monkey |
2724s | right there okay that's just gonna be |
2727s | one of another predict is going to be |
2729s | coming out so let's see which one will |
2732s | be predicted in it to uh the side of |
2736s | Super Saiyan but open attack definitely |
2738s | going to happen definitely kind of |
2740s | possible to get some uh oh wow look at |
2743s | that right obligation has already been |
2745s | brought out so this is going to be a |
2748s | useful tool down the line boy yep I mean |
2751s | this is a very useful tool right right |
2752s | of negation Aurora immediately go for |
2755s | this window and take it off his hand yes |
2758s | you gotta negate that I have a negate |
2760s | myself as well but this actually you |
2762s | know but what super is actually trying |
2764s | to do is not just you know go for it |
2766s | it's like not to fight any much tools |
2768s | right it's really digging in deep he |
2770s | needs those Chrono breaks he needs those |
2773s | on the board to actually allow him to go |
2775s | for |
2776s | um the draw power and actually refill |
2778s | his gas because right now it seems like |
2780s | super is running really low on gas if he |
2782s | don't get to you know he's not lucky |
2784s | enough to predict himself into those |
2786s | crucial cards that he needs yes let's |
2788s | see if the time trick will do the trick |
2790s | as of the moment like but of course uh |
2792s | that was a a nice rental right there |
2794s | getting that right of negation now it's |
2797s | he's basically saying you know the meme |
2798s | you know what I mean it's like hours |
2800s | window |
2801s | your little hours window right so rather |
2805s | sorry our right of negation I'm sorry |
2807s | our right obligation so that's amazing |
2810s | right there and uh of course there's |
2811s | gonna be a quick send over removing the |
2815s | keywords and making sure that that Echo |
2819s | is gonna get destroyed in this term but |
2822s | the first time trick is still going to |
2824s | be on uh Super's disposal so he might |
2827s | you know as you said the chicks might be |
2830s | the the push that he needs for uh for a |
2834s | possible refill of his very own deck so |
2837s | let's see what he gets King so Cruella |
2839s | big is gonna beat here Chrono is coming |
2841s | in |
2842s | bring the echo back at Aurora going in |
2844s | for the scoop and this is a really fast |
2846s | 2-0 coming in and super taking home the |
2849s | win and knocking Aurora out one of our |
2852s | previous like like Regional Champions or |
2854s | even seasonal champion and that's gonna |
2856s | be huge coming in for super big win yeah |
2859s | super going with a super win against a |
2863s | giant right there Aurora and you can see |
2866s | like that that's quick 2-0 is a very |
2869s | like a hard uh feat to do as at the |
2873s | moment and you can see that it's it's |
2875s | very uh you know the the deck or the |
2878s | dros have been super like mid like like |
2883s | wow amazing for super right there man |
2888s | you're constantly predicting you're |
2891s | always looking for you know what are the |
2893s | possibilities that you could play and |
2895s | and it is always controlling his top |
2897s | deck as much as possible and going up |
2900s | against things like this Samira |
2902s | and and especially when you know Aurora |
2904s | is not really lucky right he started off |
2906s | really weak there's not much follow up |
2908s | his sub mirror goes down really early as |
2910s | well and there might be a situation |
2912s | where you know um he should have saved |
2915s | this Samira with the quicksand and just |
2917s | you know not allowing the echo to take |
2919s | him out like that could be the turning |
2921s | point for Aurora but you know instead he |
2922s | let this mirror go and that actually |
2925s | might be the turning point for him |
2927s | that's right that's right and you know |
2929s | when when Echo Jinx is being played I I |
2932s | usually play this in my in my mind you |
2934s | know the arcade song like Dynasty said |
2936s | dystopia |
2939s | like that song like it's just playing on |
2943s | my head but amazing again for a super |
2945s | like Aurora just went in straight with |
2947s | both Samira fists back to back right |
2950s | um I feel that um that was actually the |
2952s | Comfort pick I need to win with this |
2954s | because over at the next one I would |
2955s | have a higher chance of winning but now |
2957s | we're going to be going with another |
2959s | match I think um the green slimy and Ben |
2962s | the penguin green slimy I feel uh last |
2965s | time a check is one of the uh top 10 |
2967s | over at the lp leaderboard but this is |
2971s | going to be I was this is going to be |
2973s | another Echo Jake and that's going look |
2974s | looks like a Gwen |
2976s | yep so I believe it's gonna be Echo Jinx |
2979s | going up against |
2980s | um Kaiser j4 and Garen I'm not sure what |
2983s | exactly is the the |
2984s | um Champion combination moving forward |
2986s | but this is a really good attack coming |
2988s | in from Green Green um green slimy uh |
2990s | with the captain moving in as well you |
2992s | know Echo might need a little bit of |
2994s | trouble if he decides to go in for the |
2995s | block but right here Pan the penguin |
2997s | have no choice but to go for a full |
2999s | block because you know this is a really |
3000s | huge attack coming in and they take |
3002s | three overwhelm moving forward Ah that's |
3004s | not where you want to be yeah this is |
3006s | going to be a lot of damage but green |
3008s | slime is already leading with one point |
3011s | over pen the penguin so man this is uh |
3014s | six damage uh this is gonna be a |
3017s | okay |
3018s | I'm seeing it and I'm looking at the the |
3021s | hand of uh Panda penguin he may still |
3024s | have a chance if he predicts uh well |
3026s | whoa whoa quicksand looks quite |
3029s | appealing as at the moment but you know |
3032s | uh there's not a chance uh there is not |
3035s | a chance for you to get uh more like uh |
3038s | more units down the line with that pick |
3040s | and look at that flip Echo has been |
3043s | flipped uh over at his hand and he |
3046s | switches over with some of the other |
3048s | cards for blocking |
3050s | yeah so I mean there's no no choice that |
3052s | you know he could actually uh he wants |
3054s | to do a little bit more damage onto the |
3055s | Kaiser as well so this way he could you |
3057s | know put at least some pressure towards |
3059s | green slime is bought but green slimy |
3061s | looks really strong right now right four |
3062s | big units staring at pen the penguin |
3064s | there's nothing much that he could do |
3066s | this turn oh he can do play the Jinx |
3068s | maybe go for a a quick predict and go |
3072s | for the attack right with these two |
3074s | Champions and you know the Jinx could |
3076s | not even attack as of right now because |
3078s | the Kaiser is just too big in his way to |
3080s | actually do this big catalysis |
3082s | and the Penguin might have to go for the |
3085s | um the negation this route |
3087s | yeah this is going to be a a nice right |
3090s | of negation and you know uh over at the |
3093s | side of Ben the penguin he will possibly |
3096s | get a uh super mega rocket right there |
3099s | with uh when if he uses uh to get |
3101s | excited down the line but of course the |
3103s | form up is gonna be used and wow what a |
3108s | counter to remove that Echo right there |
3112s | of course you're gonna get uh predict uh |
3114s | as a benefit look at this I was talking |
3117s | about this guy a while ago the blocking |
3119s | box battery right there and the predict |
3121s | is not it's kind of underwhelming over |
3124s | at the side of pen the penguin uh he |
3126s | goes on for an inspiring chronomancer to |
3129s | get another critic as well but you know |
3131s | open attack is going to be GG for panda |
3133s | Penguins two oh straight four green |
3135s | slimy over yeah yeah |
3140s | [Laughter] |
3144s | oh man ah this is the final nail to the |
3147s | coffee right like just j4 get the Jinx |
3149s | out of the way and this is going to be |
3151s | Gigi coming in Grim slimy taking his two |
3153s | is to zero again Bender green pen the |
3156s | penguin really unfortunate to actually |
3157s | go down like this the green slimy yeah |
3161s | uh you know apologies I got it got quite |
3164s | confused again with the grand but again |
3166s | it's j4 uh the Garen uh j4 kaisa deck |
3170s | that's actually been used by Green slimy |
3173s | a while ago that was an amazing uh play |
3176s | right there and you we saw it right in |
3178s | the middle of the match that's already |
3180s | like big units like that basically like |
3184s | a minimum 20 damage already right there |
3186s | and like small units coming in from the |
3188s | side of uh a panda penguin and that's |
3191s | just good that's just proves like I |
3193s | think the matter of changing your name |
3195s | to an animal is already out |
3199s | Penguins Fishers what else is there |
3202s | there was a bear I think it's a bear |
3204s | yeah yeah yeah so there's like lots of |
3207s | lots of interesting uh yeah but I think |
3211s | there GameStop finishing pretty quickly |
3213s | you know uh one after another uh brother |
3215s | Clinton is still trying to get us more |
3216s | games and more coverage coming in as |
3218s | well so but I want to take your |
3220s | attention to the Kaiser j4 right like |
3222s | the deck we haven't really seen it |
3224s | moving around too often until recently |
3227s | one of the Showcase matches that |
3229s | actually uh brought this deck up again |
3230s | and it's really strong especially when |
3233s | you know um the cuts you know they have |
3235s | evolve gets triggered as well where all |
3237s | the units just get so much bigger and |
3240s | and stacked together with j4 and Garen |
3242s | like things are just gonna be so much |
3244s | spicier for these uh Kaiser deck yes and |
3248s | you know we can see like when they do |
3250s | get in uh and develop their units uh |
3253s | it's kind of a bit Unstoppable like and |
3255s | also you see like there's a uh that |
3258s | counter with the form up just put in |
3260s | another nail to the coffin of up and the |
3262s | Penguins uh lineup right there and now |
3264s | going in to another lineup |
3267s | oh let's it's let's see and motokichi |
3271s | right there and now we're looking at the |
3273s | Tristana versus what wait is there a |
3276s | chance |
3277s | Shen |
3281s | somebody brought a shin |
3283s | what is happening |
3285s | okay let me see I wanna see if I'm not |
3289s | wrong it's gonna be j4 Shen coming in |
3292s | for for umichi |
3295s | and with a level up Shen and it's get |
3297s | protected on board right now it's |
3300s | looking great for motokichi but right |
3302s | here let's see half the attack token |
3304s | right three impact onto the Tristana as |
3306s | well one impact of na what impact on the |
3309s | few you want and this is going to be a |
3310s | secured five damage moving forward and |
3313s | as long as that c could find that |
3315s | additional five more damage this is |
3317s | going to be securing him the win and |
3318s | this is gonna be a big swing coming in |
3319s | coming uh from let's see but Moto kichi |
3322s | though he got the um this the Shen |
3325s | Champion spell right he could give two |
3327s | units barrier and that could actually |
3329s | allow motokichi to take out the Tristana |
3332s | in this particular fight |
3334s | yeah they affected damage as you said |
3337s | like we he needs a little bit five more |
3339s | damage that pastry can go the deal one |
3341s | to anything so that's already uh one |
3344s | more one less uh thing to worry about |
3345s | but this is going to be an effective |
3348s | like you know cancel but of course you |
3350s | can see the lifesteal possibly being |
3352s | used right there lifesteal over at this |
3355s | side of motokichi so he's gonna be |
3357s | replenishing at some point uh yeah if he |
3361s | does uh uh get to use it but this is a |
3365s | lot of damage coming in from let's see |
3367s | and let's see what is going to be |
3369s | happening uh after uh motokichi uh |
3372s | finalizes what he's gonna be doing |
3374s | yeah looking at the boss State looking |
3376s | at the hand right now it seems like |
3378s | motokichi got the play ready right there |
3380s | you have Stan United coming in giving |
3381s | two units the barrier that he needs he |
3384s | got the speech refuse as what Excelsior |
3386s | which said right he could heal back |
3388s | those damage coming in as well she |
3389s | started going straight right down mayor |
3391s | going down |
3392s | um you know the Gnar is going down as |
3394s | well just taking eight damage this turn |
3396s | and he could even heal up as much as |
3398s | four or even 11 damage this turn that |
3401s | motokichi actually uh chooses to and |
3403s | this just looks great for motokichi for |
3406s | the backswing uh later on when the |
3408s | attack token flow back to him yes that's |
3411s | right that's right he can go in and get |
3414s | some more health and look at that |
3416s | there's going to be a price fight as |
3417s | well just to remove that and that's okay |
3420s | that's going to get into |
3423s | like you know you see that you see that |
3425s | minus 11 right there man that's lethal |
3427s | right there that's lethal that's we were |
3430s | talking about this a while ago I was |
3431s | thinking yes price proc with Tristana |
3434s | and it does guys it definitely does and |
3437s | you can see it's right there no you go |
3439s | in with the 11th man going with 11. |
3443s | let's see see it already uh |
3446s | and it's nine |
3448s | bring onto one which can get finished |
3450s | out with uh the pastry |
3453s | yeah that's a possible move coming in as |
3456s | well right motokichi only at three Mana |
3458s | the deny is not available for him to use |
3460s | as well and this actually removes the |
3462s | sacred protect protector so that you |
3464s | know even if motokichi survives this |
3466s | turn there's nothing much that he could |
3467s | do poke stick coming in as well and that |
3469s | is going to be GG for let's see he's |
3471s | gonna end this here with a pokey stick |
3474s | poking it in down to zero |
3476s | you know you know uh down the line I'm |
3479s | thinking like uh what it would it be |
3481s | part where did there be any you know way |
3485s | for motokichi to go back and uh uh win |
3489s | that match and I was thinking like you |
3490s | know uh that was a |
3493s | um a very surprising deck that we saw we |
3497s | saw right there under over at the mid |
3499s | where is it wait this is not about |
3501s | akichi this is not mono kitchen stack |
3503s | yeah okay yeah but it's fine it's fine |
3505s | right like uh yeah but we've seen a shed |
3508s | just now you know something interesting |
3509s | that we haven't seen |
3511s | um in the tournament so far like just |
3513s | looking at three different games we are |
3515s | seeing tons of different decks coming in |
3517s | right and if we get to see a Shen after |
3519s | so long and it looks like the Sham was |
3522s | in a very good position right I thought |
3523s | that the Shen would go for it until the |
3525s | price fight actually could do the |
3527s | additional impact damage to close off |
3528s | the game and that's a really good um |
3530s | strategy coming in from that seat that's |
3532s | really smart that's right and let's see |
3535s | right now already loaded up there you go |
3538s | over at the right it's still oh it's |
3540s | still set j4 version that's right uh you |
3543s | were right uh right there moon boy and |
3545s | that was actually a surprising deck uh |
3548s | because there's three sheds on that |
3551s | necklace so he is uh basically you know |
3554s | targeting uh uh capitalizing on the |
3557s | barriers capitalizing on a single uh |
3559s | attacks or single uh combat uh uh skills |
3563s | just to get some removals and of course |
3565s | down the line you can use uh j4 when you |
3568s | have the Mana as well but he's also |
3570s | carrying like as a mirror Fist and there |
3573s | you go a nasus right so this is the only |
3576s | one that is different and was not bad so |
3578s | possibly some mirror fist uh has been |
3580s | banned right here so I want to see if uh |
3582s | What uh what else uh they're gonna be |
3585s | playing and uh it's uh |
3588s | yeah here's gonna be the next game |
3589s | between Moto kichi and let's see |
3593s | yep so I I think like you know this |
3596s | particular |
3597s | um both players I'm not sure what the |
3599s | score line is is one zero two more to |
3601s | let's see if I'm or one one |
3604s | yeah I'm not really sure what the the um |
3606s | the |
3607s | the score is actually right now but the |
3610s | sixth drop coming in from let's See's |
3611s | hand right that card is probably the key |
3614s | piece moving forward it's stacked |
3615s | together with the Make It Rain that is |
3618s | gonna be doing so much for let's see |
3619s | it's going to be paying dividends for |
3621s | him that's right that's right and it's |
3623s | gonna be uh uh an effective attack right |
3625s | there with the the sea and you can see a |
3629s | spawn already being brought out the |
3630s | Broadway bedroom side is going to be |
3632s | blocking it right now and there you go |
3635s | there is going to be 2-1 and you know we |
3638s | have I think this is an uh considering |
3640s | the the support well is it possible that |
3643s | there's going to be uh |
3646s | there's gonna be oh wait is that abroad |
3649s | main I'm looking at the broad main right |
3651s | there man yeah |
3653s | I like it I like it I like it a lot man |
3656s | this is going to be quite a show when |
3658s | the Broadband goes down because I want |
3660s | to see how Moto GT is going to be |
3661s | dealing uh with that Broadband now he |
3664s | has a lot of tools right the mobile you |
3665s | can see a single combat right there uh |
3667s | you can see the j4 possibly uh getting |
3670s | uh hooking that up if it if it's the |
3672s | right conditions but yeah it's the |
3674s | monokichi still needs to get this win to |
3678s | move on towards the next round |
3680s | yeah but and the Lord brought me is is |
3683s | gonna be important for let's see make it |
3686s | rain coming and trying to remove the uh |
3688s | broad Wing coming in for motokichi and |
3690s | but the thing about motokichi is that |
3692s | you know is playing around with barriers |
3693s | right so damage unit is definitely gonna |
3696s | be on his board most of the time |
3699s | so you know the only protection is |
3701s | through barrier or even true removal so |
3704s | um the Broadband is going to be huge |
3705s | moving forward as well so it seems like |
3707s | let's see um got the game plan running |
3710s | and start to remove and control motor |
3711s | kitchen spot so that not much um barrier |
3714s | could be applied to motokichi side of |
3716s | the field and looking at his hand |
3717s | there's not much barrier option as well |
3719s | that's right you put it in a good point |
3721s | right there oh who are you going to be |
3723s | barriering if you don't have any units |
3725s | to put barrier on that's right that's |
3728s | going to be kind of a a good play right |
3730s | there and uh let's not take out the fact |
3731s | that there's a scorched Earth over at |
3733s | the side of let's see so if he just gets |
3735s | to damage one of those units he will |
3737s | possibly be able to remove it even |
3740s | though it has barrier but uh let's not |
3742s | take out the fact that we can see over |
3743s | at our side of motokichi also has a deny |
3746s | to possibly block that out so still |
3749s | going back and forth between these guys |
3752s | and the spawn is going to go up to three |
3754s | that uh Mariah is going to be uh |
3757s | attacking right there because that's a |
3759s | that's a removable card to or this |
3762s | expandable car right there two one |
3763s | versus two two that's a good trade right |
3765s | there yeah for sure and let's see he's |
3768s | just putting in so much work to actually |
3770s | maintain the tempo going up against |
3772s | motokichi and another Mariah wasn't |
3774s | right there and the j4 coming straight |
3776s | right in just to remove the tentacle off |
3778s | the field and this is gonna be a good |
3780s | push coming in from monokichi making |
3782s | rain going in just to destroy the |
3784s | barriers as the j4 will be going down to |
3786s | one Health this turn and there's nothing |
3788s | much that motokichi could do that is |
3790s | that that you know that he could do to |
3792s | actually protect the j4 as there's |
3794s | things like heavy metal and and um like |
3797s | the elegant flare to actually just |
3798s | remove the j4 there yeah that's right |
3801s | and you know we can see that the day |
3803s | four just became a J1 right there after |
3806s | it gets removed |
3808s | the barrier gets removed I'm sorry man |
3810s | where it gets removed uh and now it can |
3813s | be it's gonna get hit by the heavy metal |
3815s | and this is gonna be uh quite a a |
3819s | letdown over the side of modikichi now |
3822s | he he still has like um uh Bryson |
3825s | protector right here over its side |
3827s | Mariah let's see what it draws out oh |
3829s | another poro is gonna be out right there |
3832s | and now it's gonna be uh seven Mana turn |
3837s | let's see if the Levine is going to go |
3840s | down and if the Leviathan is here will |
3843s | there be a Swain |
3846s | well I mean this is a no-brainer right |
3847s | it's either you go for the uh the broad |
3851s | main or Leviathan the sun right you go |
3854s | for the broad Main and try to remove the |
3855s | Kinko student from doing anything funky |
3857s | and but the thing here is that Moto |
3859s | kichi is putting up five Mana open and |
3861s | that actually |
3862s | um let's see have to respect the the the |
3865s | deny coming in from Moto Kitty as well |
3867s | right let's see |
3869s | um there's going to be one removal one |
3871s | uh one damage as well and let's see if |
3874s | this is gonna be uh the way right now |
3877s | but of course we can see uh let's see |
3879s | trying to try and go with this with the |
3882s | gameplay that he's been doing he's |
3884s | trying to go and remove as many tokens |
3886s | or as many attacks as possible that uh |
3889s | that dragon is going to get stunned and |
3893s | now of course uh oh since the token has |
3897s | been already been used is he won't have |
3899s | time to develop but the broader oh man |
3902s | there you go kashiri Gauntlet this is |
3904s | going to be re moving that guy right |
3907s | there oh there you go the night yep he |
3911s | knows the value and the deny has been |
3914s | used so there's still one more uh two |
3917s | from the side of let's see the scorched |
3919s | Earth and there's no more deny on site |
3921s | up heavy metal on the top deck from |
3923s | let's see sacred protector coming in |
3925s | giving the screeching Dragon a barrier |
3928s | as well stacked together with a double |
3929s | strike that means that Brockman is in |
3931s | danger of being removed Scorch oh |
3934s | there's no damage going into |
3936s | um the screeching dragon in the previous |
3937s | round as well so that Scorch Earth is |
3939s | not gonna be triggering right here and |
3941s | and you know motokichi got a really |
3943s | clean removal onto the broad main for |
3946s | this particular swing so |
3948s | um you know there's nothing much that |
3949s | Lexi could do just play the Leviathan |
3951s | and set up for the next turn maybe uh we |
3954s | can actually we can actually have a uh |
3956s | you you can use the heavy metal to go in |
3959s | to the H6 right there maybe |
3962s | um save that Scorch Earth when the |
3964s | screeching dragon attacks like it's a |
3966s | quick attack but I if I understand it |
3968s | correctly there's gonna be uh removal |
3972s | right now with that uh with that uh with |
3976s | the use of the scorched after it gets |
3979s | damaged like it goes down to four two or |
3982s | a key he focuses on the uh the larger |
3986s | unit right there right so in yeah it's |
3989s | okay it's okay right there to get to get |
3991s | that out of the way and just maintain |
3994s | like uh main thing consistency in terms |
3996s | of the units that I feel motokichi still |
3999s | has got this one down the line man I |
4002s | mean he got the Shen in his hand as well |
4004s | he's ready to go for a a second swing |
4006s | right but motokishi have to understand |
4009s | once let's see dropped the Leviathan |
4011s | that's not no other option left for Moto |
4013s | kichi to actually come back off this one |
4015s | unless they draw into a his second |
4017s | secret protector but I don't I only |
4018s | think that you know he only play one |
4020s | copy of it and the set coming in as well |
4022s | but Lexi already got that swing in his |
4024s | hand and that is gonna be a clear threat |
4027s | moving forward for motokichi |
4030s | that's right and now of course uh that |
4032s | dividends out the Swain is out now of |
4034s | course for those swainiacs right here |
4036s | over at the the broadcast of course |
4040s | you'll probably be rejoicing because |
4041s | this we haven't been see we haven't seen |
4043s | this uh we haven't even mentioned this |
4046s | over at uh the uh the pre-game uh |
4050s | discussions but of course we're now |
4052s | seeing it right now with let's see and |
4054s | uh now uh it's gonna be dealing with |
4056s | damage straight to the Nexus over at the |
4059s | next turn you can also uh it also has |
4062s | overwhelm as at the moment so matakichi |
4065s | is definitely thinking of the best uh |
4068s | possible turn here puts down another |
4069s | Screech and dragon over at his side and |
4072s | this is you know this is going to be |
4074s | body blocks all over he may go for uh |
4078s | and block that uh two one or the Pearl |
4081s | flies as well and the both the poros and |
4085s | just let the five sevens slide through |
4088s | yeah and and right here moroccichi is on |
4090s | the clock right he's on a 4 turn clock |
4093s | as of right now right with the Leviathan |
4095s | dealing three damage every single end of |
4097s | turn so Moto kichi is have to react and |
4100s | have to really remove the Leviathan as |
4102s | much as fast as possible and looking at |
4104s | his hand right now he have to shine he |
4106s | have to set and a a you know this plus |
4108s | two plus two spell it's not gonna be |
4110s | adding up to seven damage to actually |
4112s | remove this Leviathan on this turn so |
4115s | it's not looking great for Moto kichi as |
4117s | of right here as you know the train is |
4119s | coming right down he got the um illawi |
4121s | slam as well just adding more uh more |
4124s | tentacles onto his board and and you |
4126s | know leveling up swing as I believe |
4128s | Swain is already level up right here as |
4130s | well so yeah let's see it's just in a |
4132s | comfortable position right here and |
4134s | model Kishi have to start digging for |
4135s | answers it's not it's going to be too |
4136s | late but you're on the master that's not |
4138s | there's only so much digging to do |
4141s | yeah and you can see that form up |
4142s | already already on the side that's going |
4144s | to just bring out the scratchy Dragon up |
4146s | to six and it's gonna be failing short |
4148s | of one damage right so this is going to |
4152s | be still over at the side of let's see |
4155s | considering that he plays uh the uh the |
4159s | swing carefully but now set is going to |
4162s | be down and out and about and look at |
4164s | those abs right there guys he's he's |
4167s | gonna be flipped as well and you can see |
4169s | the Challenger or the active on his side |
4172s | so this is gonna be a huge swing but not |
4175s | an impossible feat for let's see to |
4178s | block |
4179s | yep but I think you know yeah she got it |
4182s | right he got the level upset he got the |
4184s | form up as well the Leviathan is |
4186s | definitely going straight right down and |
4187s | morikishi continues to control the board |
4190s | and the dragons are growing with the |
4191s | fury moving forward also and now let's |
4194s | see it's on the back foot this time |
4196s | around right like the the Swain is that |
4198s | is coming down the neck this turn but I |
4201s | don't think you know he can see a way |
4202s | for actually coming right out the set is |
4204s | the turning point that Moto kitchen |
4206s | needs |
4207s | that's right and then you know the |
4209s | levite and indeed has a huge value uh |
4213s | with the combo with uh the the flip |
4216s | swing because he if you go go and deal |
4219s | damage directly you will have a a free |
4223s | stunt so to speak and now over at the |
4225s | side of let's see he draws out the |
4228s | illawi of course but no tentacles are |
4231s | present as the moment he may use a |
4233s | tentacle smash just to power it up uh |
4236s | quite a bit but I am not optimistic that |
4239s | he will be able to uh he will be able to |
4243s | maximize the value of it right there's |
4246s | still a like a a bright seal protector |
4248s | over at the side of what the kitchen |
4249s | just to protect some of these other |
4251s | units but over the next turn another big |
4254s | swing is gonna be uh coming out and |
4257s | there's not going to be enough blockers |
4258s | for let's see to uh prevent damage and |
4261s | look at that an effective pass |
4264s | I yeah that's a that's a really bad pass |
4266s | coming in from let's see right motokichi |
4268s | got the top deck of the Champion's |
4270s | strength the last turn right passing to |
4272s | motokishi there |
4274s | um you know if you're not gonna go for |
4275s | the push it really shows that you got |
4277s | nothing there's nothing that you could |
4278s | do and moroccichi right here with the |
4280s | champion strength he gets himself the |
4281s | Scout token right here and it might be |
4283s | game over for let's see this turn and he |
4285s | really Scoops it up as motoki she takes |
4287s | the 2-1 Victory against let's see yes |
4290s | Moto kichi just moves in with a 2-1 or |
4293s | for the first game that we saw that's |
4295s | not a 2-0 right there and you know it's |
4298s | amazing that we see that the the the |
4300s | place right there we saw the Shen uh j4 |
4305s | man wow there's some uh there's some |
4310s | defense there's some how do you say this |
4313s | um counter place right there man I I I'm |
4316s | seeing uh the the the majority of the |
4319s | tournament comes in before the |
4321s | tournament itself in the preparation as |
4323s | well and when you see and study all the |
4325s | data |
4326s | you know botokichi just probably |
4327s | arriving nobody's using maybe I use Shen |
4330s | maybe I try to counter some of the decks |
4332s | and is this this is possibly a good |
4334s | counter what do you think about that uh |
4336s | boy well they were saying that you know |
4339s | damasia don't have much support this set |
4342s | right like you know this there's the |
4344s | support is mainly or Ionia builds water |
4346s | and |
4351s | right these three cards actually got the |
4354s | new Champions and new edition of cuts |
4356s | and the martial is just using mainly |
4358s | like you know older Cuts moving forward |
4360s | but you know with the new Badger bear |
4362s | that could actually block elusive like |
4365s | that card is the one that that changed |
4367s | the whole like allow the master to |
4369s | actually stay relevant that if that card |
4370s | code blocks could block a face and with |
4374s | those you know additional attack with |
4375s | rallies with champion strength with you |
4378s | know Cuts with decent stats right you |
4380s | got combat removal and there's so many |
4382s | things that you could do with the master |
4384s | and it's it's still looking very strong |
4386s | right who needs new cards when you've |
4388s | got really solid old cards and that's |
4389s | what the master have and you know we get |
4391s | to see the rise of um Kaiser the mafia |
4394s | or events you know today we just saw |
4396s | Shen just now as well so it's just a |
4399s | pretty solid package moving forward and |
4401s | we saw a set as well like imagine having |
4404s | that set who doesn't even need a barrier |
4406s | it already has like I can't take or |
4409s | damage or die right there that's already |
4412s | uh like uh already lined up with the |
4415s | whole mechanic that the uh that the the |
4417s | Shen j4 deck already has so amazing line |
4420s | up right there and of course this if |
4423s | you're just watching you're watching the |
4425s | legislaterra world's qualifier for APAC |
4429s | region and we're gonna be taking a short |
4431s | break and when we come back it's gonna |
4433s | be round two for all the action don't go |
4436s | anywhere we'll be right back guys |

5130s | welcome back to the Apec World qualifier |
5133s | my name is Mundo I'm joined by Excelsior |
5135s | pH we just concluded our top 64 as we're |
5139s | moving straight right to top 32 |
5141s | Excelsior how is your experience so far |
5143s | yeah it's very good experience we have |
5146s | seen a lot of deck archetypes right |
5148s | there moon boy like we got spread we got |
5151s | straight shot into uh Shen Jabron 4 of |
5155s | the last match we saw as a mirror Fizz |
5158s | we saw a Tristana deck we saw a nasus |
5162s | like wow I mean I've been seeing a lot |
5165s | of Vex right now that means not a lot of |
5168s | uh decks have been dominating like so |
5171s | much so that it's the only decks we are |
5173s | watching right we're seeing some of our |
5176s | our players like try to Target some of |
5177s | the decks as well so this is good this |
5179s | is a good uh day for rentera that we are |
5182s | seeing this variation or like almost all |
5185s | regions are represented right now almost |
5187s | like but I've yet to set foreign |
5204s | [Laughter] |
5209s | coming in but you know not the getting |
5211s | we have a lot of interesting players |
5213s | coming in this tournament as well right |
5215s | coming in at 64th seed ladies and |
5218s | gentlemen our next feature map is gonna |
5220s | be four second 42 second fourth second |
5223s | you know he's a man with a lot of names |
5225s | and he's coming in with a 7-3 scoreline |
5228s | just badly scraping through the waiting |
5230s | list and going up against a 9-0 our very |
5233s | first seed crossbone at top 34. and he |
5237s | he beats him right the last seat beats |
5239s | the first seat and it's moving straight |
5240s | right to top 32 and all lights is |
5243s | definitely gonna be on this guy because |
5244s | how is this guy gonna perform he's |
5246s | always a big question mark So it comes |
5248s | to big tournament what do you think |
5249s | about them yeah I was just seeing like |
5251s | uh 40 seconds like uh already tweeting |
5254s | like he's already wait listed now he |
5256s | went in and straight into the seat 64 |
5259s | seed now already at round two like I |
5262s | don't know what what this guy is gonna |
5263s | be doing like he was able to beat uh |
5266s | crossbow and buy a hair right there with |
5267s | the two one right so that's a that's an |
5269s | amazing feat in itself but uh let's see |
5271s | if uh he will continue this run maybe |
5274s | get into top 16 after this next match |
5277s | because I feel that he's gonna be uh |
5279s | facing an alpha male right here with the |
5282s | alpha King so let's see alpha or second |
5286s | you know first or second let's see which |
5288s | one of the two are gonna be uh is gonna |
5290s | be moving forward man yeah I I I |
5293s | personally love four SEC four four two |
5295s | seconds right like he's such a good |
5297s | person he's such a good content creator |
5299s | he's really entertaining as well so you |
5302s | know and he's a pretty good player |
5304s | himself as well so you know being able |
5306s | to make it for top 32 and having a shot |
5308s | at the world championship and I believe |
5310s | you know two more wins or two more wins |
5313s | he secure himself some prize money as |
5315s | well so you know this guy is just gonna |
5316s | be moving straight right forward and |
5318s | we're just gonna see |
5319s | um you know what these two players is |
5321s | going to bring onto the table this this |
5323s | um this weekend that's right and if I |
5325s | remember correctly uh for a second was |
5327s | also able to cast some of the matches |
5329s | right like uh one of the uh the season |
5331s | or one of the seasons or one of the |
5333s | tournaments that were in the broadcast |
5334s | that was casted by uh by four second as |
5337s | well so that was an amazing uh effort |
5339s | for the community like uh like if you |
5341s | see uh our community so they've already |
5343s | been stepping up as well we see some uh |
5345s | Community tournaments we have seen some |
5347s | uh highlights I'm a non-game events as |
5350s | well we have seen some of that but uh |
5353s | what I want to see man like since um the |
5355s | epidemic has already been like a bit a |
5358s | bit uh you know a bit more relax like we |
5362s | have been seeing some events FDF Events |
5364s | maybe we see a land event man moon boy |
5367s | but I want to see that happen how about |
5369s | you uh for sure I definitely love to see |
5371s | some land event and you know players |
5373s | coming together and and interact with |
5374s | one another but before that ladies and |
5376s | gentlemen I believe the deck list is |
5377s | ready let's just take a look at the deck |
5379s | list |
5380s | um you know coming in for for four two |
5383s | seconds and first off you know he got |
5385s | the uh I believe this is the nasus right |
5388s | mono Nexus coming in from as his first |
5390s | deck followed up by a Samira Pantheon |
5393s | and a Tristana Timo uh coming in for for |
5397s | for his last deck and you know him being |
5399s | a Teemo myself you know Timo fan myself |
5401s | seeing a Teemo on the light on the |
5403s | lineup like I'm just I'm just enough I'm |
5406s | done |
5407s | yeah as we see a Teemo right now like |
5409s | the uh the the the the puff man is |
5412s | already right there but of course you |
5414s | know nasus yeah we I was just talking to |
5416s | you about this a while ago man it just |
5418s | keeps on popping up uh right on our |
5420s | first matches I think it's it's a |
5422s | testament to how good it is and no |
5425s | Landmark construction of uh has been |
5429s | seen except for the one the score shirt |
5430s | that we saw a while ago but uh the one |
5432s | carrying it was uh lost uh I think it |
5436s | was let's see who lost that match so |
5438s | that scorcher disorder nowhere to be |
5440s | found no more uh uh Landmark removals |
5443s | over at this uh the middle one I mean |
5446s | there's a mirror Samira Fizz uh is wait |
5449s | this is Samira fist yep uh yeah so Mira |
5453s | is uh going to be uh Samira Pantheon it |
5457s | was looking yeah I was I was basically |
5459s | set on some mirror face but I was seeing |
5461s | like you're a Pantheon okay yes okay |
5463s | another Samira uh deck over at the |
5466s | Samira versus we're seeing and that this |
5468s | uh is going to be uh quite an |
5470s | interesting uh build especially with the |
5472s | fated mechanic right there so let's see |
5475s | if this is going to be dominating but |
5477s | what do you think which one of these |
5479s | decks should be targeted uh considering |
5481s | the meta right now well definitely your |
5484s | if you're um you know coming into the |
5486s | installment you are ready for any |
5487s | Tristana kind of deck right Samira |
5490s | Pantheon is a little bit out of the |
5491s | ordinary bet it out of the way right do |
5493s | not you don't really want to do a |
5495s | Pantheon once it levels up and stack |
5497s | together with some mirror with the |
5498s | flares and all the support coming in |
5500s | from the Samira um Samira kit like you |
5502s | know it's going to be a very dangerous |
5504s | deck to actually deal with so bend it |
5507s | out of the way deal with the NASA's deal |
5508s | with the three standard because these |
5510s | are the two main um decks in the leather |
5512s | right now and these are probably what |
5514s | you have been preparing so just take on |
5516s | what you're prepared and just take the |
5517s | unknown out of the picture |
5519s | yeah so this is going to be uh quite |
5522s | exciting indeed and we might see for a |
5525s | second move on to the next round who |
5526s | knows man like uh we have uh the there |
5530s | are some skills right there and he's |
5531s | probably sharpening in those uh |
5534s | especially uh with his content as well |
5536s | like you know you uh uh as a content |
5540s | creator you find yourself uh about |
5542s | developing that skill like so much so |
5545s | with the hours that you're spending and |
5547s | uh he definitely put in the hours to uh |
5549s | with the possibly uh with this deck to |
5552s | even get him uh to this spot right man |
5555s | top 32. that's a big uh big spot to be |
5559s | in man yeah 32 players out of what |
5562s | thousands of players in the server right |
5564s | like you know he's definitely close to |
5565s | top 0.5 as of right now so you know he's |
5570s | just really |
5571s | um in a good spot and this is a very |
5573s | solid lineup and I'm gonna say right you |
5575s | got a really consistent kind of Nexus |
5577s | deck you got Timo and Tristana putting |
5579s | in aggression as well if some mirror and |
5581s | Pantheon is not banned he got those |
5583s | hard-hitting Powers moving forward also |
5585s | so yeah so I'm I'm really excited to see |
5589s | what uh four two seconds actually have |
5591s | but however on Alpha King side uh I I |
5594s | don't think this is gonna be the the the |
5596s | the lineup for Alpha King right it looks |
5598s | like 42 42's |
5601s | um lineup |
5602s | oh wow okay so we now see the lineups |
5606s | and the what have been banned that |
5607s | there's sauna deck of alpha King has |
5609s | been banned Samira Pantheon has been |
5612s | banned on the side the fourth second |
5614s | left now and now of course we're gonna |
5616s | be seeing the aatrox vein you know man |
5620s | he crossed vane I've been playing this |
5623s | uh this deck quite a lot and I would |
5625s | like to see it uh be played by one of |
5628s | our professionals right here Alpha King |
5629s | also going in with some mirror Jinx I |
5632s | mean there's a mirror verse keeps on |
5634s | expanding man we see some mirror face a |
5637s | mirror Pantheon and now some mirror Jinx |
5639s | wow um what do you think about these |
5642s | fans man well I I mean this coming Alpha |
5645s | King have a really aggressive lineup |
5646s | right like the eight trucks is kind of |
5648s | like mid-rangey it's probably going in |
5650s | with these Scouts kind of like uh Scouts |
5652s | and tumble kind of um game plan coming |
5654s | in right and and that's probably looking |
5656s | at the Champions like I'm not sure what |
5658s | the 40s are but that is a really |
5660s | aggressive deck when it gives you a old |
5662s | school Scout kind of like style and |
5664s | Samira Jinx on the other hand is a burn |
5667s | kind of like you know old school |
5668s | Gangplank MF right like it's just |
5670s | straight out big units uh suing you out |
5673s | and just going in for multiple attacks |
5674s | again and again and and with jinx it |
5677s | just refuels you once she's level up as |
5679s | well so you will never run out of gas |
5680s | yes with that bro let's get into the |
5683s | game right now it's gonna be Alpha King |
5686s | on top and 40 seconds over at the bottom |
5689s | uh going straight at it with the mono |
5692s | nasus deck and of course the Tristana |
5694s | deck over at Alpha king size is going to |
5696s | be grandfather fate right there and |
5697s | bringing out the uh hungry alcat over at |
5700s | this side and look at that badger bear |
5703s | like there's going to be just the you |
5705s | know it's a no-brainer put down the |
5707s | vaults of Valhalla and you're gonna |
5708s | steamroll your opponent down the line |
5710s | This is it yeah I mean four seconds is |
5715s | actually looking very strong right he |
5716s | got the uh he got the the hell out right |
5721s | out early yes he's gonna be taking a |
5723s | look a little bit of damage right here |
5724s | but it's totally okay |
5727s | um he got the nasus in his hand the only |
5728s | problem is there are two nesters in his |
5730s | hand literally clogs up his hand right |
5732s | now and it's actually risking potential |
5735s | like you know multiple nesses coming in |
5737s | from default as well so and and you know |
5740s | that might be stopping him a little bit |
5742s | more but the train is rolling right here |
5744s | with the Cam Cameron Dragon 4 for this |
5746s | 42 seconds and his bike coming in as |
5748s | well so this is looking okay but there's |
5751s | not much that he could do this done yeah |
5753s | and he already took a total of nine |
5756s | damage so it it's looking quite a bit |
5758s | slow for the side of 42nd right now he's |
5760s | gonna be dealing uh free damage with |
5762s | that Kevin borne Dragon because you know |
5764s | the alpha King doesn't want to block |
5765s | that and make that bigger than it uh |
5768s | than it is right now but lower at the |
5771s | next turn he still has a lot of uh |
5774s | choices to go with like you can see his |
5776s | quick sense right there the the spike |
5778s | right there and of course uh a possible |
5780s | summon for a NASA so this is there's a |
5783s | lot of support but Alpha King knows |
5786s | where the game is he's gonna keep on |
5788s | expanding the board and he is going |
5792s | great at it especially with the impact |
5794s | damage and uh you know just keep on |
5797s | developing and you know you're gonna get |
5799s | the damage in uh down the line |
5802s | yeah I mean you know going up against a |
5805s | deck like NASA's right you you always go |
5807s | wide right go wide and not allowing uh |
5809s | your opponent to do too much Gunners |
5811s | coming down for Alpha King as well and |
5813s | with the spell shield you know a keyword |
5816s | on it as well the siphoning strike is |
5818s | definitely not gonna hit him this turn |
5820s | and you know there's only two units |
5822s | going up against what six units coming |
5824s | in from alpha King and those units like |
5826s | you know when uh the gardener have three |
5828s | impact as well so it's looking very bad |
5830s | for four second as of right here this is |
5833s | a very aggressive Alpha king and the |
5834s | cycling strike coming in for four second |
5836s | yes siphoning strike is going to be |
5839s | initially used right there and that is a |
5842s | possible turn but let's not let's also |
5844s | take in that that Alpha King also has |
5848s | two prize fights over at this side of |
5850s | the board now this can be canceled out |
5852s | uh still with the four Mana right there |
5854s | right navigation can still be used but |
5856s | look at that oh man there's gonna be a |
5859s | huge nasus with a nine nine and Gamma |
5862s | foreign dragons well gets to five five |
5864s | now this is going to be a an attack |
5866s | that's going to be coming in from |
5867s | aldocaine because he knows that most of |
5869s | these most of these units are not going |
5871s | to be blocked and with four Mana |
5874s | remaining there is a possibility that he |
5877s | make uh try and um cancel out or uh try |
5881s | encounter whatever uh whatever spell |
5883s | shenanigans the uh that Alpha King is |
5886s | going to be using uh our I.E the price |
5889s | fight so still pushing damage right now |
5892s | over at the side of alpha King yeah but |
5895s | you know it's negating this price fight |
5898s | actually worth it right yes you get to |
5900s | save your nurses but another price fight |
5902s | it's just gonna cost one more one more |
5904s | mana and I have two Mana open |
5906s | right now so are you willing to trade |
5908s | four Mana for one manner like that is |
5909s | the biggest question that for four to uh |
5912s | four seconds have to answer |
5914s | um right here like let the nesters go |
5915s | get the trade onto the Gunner right you |
5918s | got you got another NASA's in hand or |
5921s | even the Cameron Dragon could bring you |
5922s | another unit with S I believe it's going |
5924s | to be rampaging bakar and you know it's |
5927s | just looking still looks okay for four |
5930s | seconds |
5931s | yeah still looking uh quite okay with |
5935s | the rampaging Buckeye uh down the line |
5937s | and the spike is gonna be used just to |
5940s | remove all the grand photography right |
5942s | there is going to be decreasing the |
5943s | damage to make me coming in towards his |
5946s | Nexus and the answer is going to be a |
5949s | prize fight as well okay amazing amazing |
5953s | uh turn of events that we are seeing |
5955s | like uh we see the good trades to be |
5958s | coming in right now but let's not take |
5960s | out the fact that 40 seconds still has |
5962s | one more nasus on his hand and a lot of |
5966s | counters that he may use |
5968s | yeah it seems like four seconds might be |
5970s | going in for the Glimpse Beyond to just |
5972s | draw two more cards I don't think that |
5974s | is advisable just take the trade right |
5975s | here you know just at the same time |
5977s | limit Alpha Kings board a little bit |
5979s | more but this Glimpse Beyond I believe |
5982s | is oh my God there's so many like layers |
5984s | going on right now you have blitzwing on |
5985s | to the dragon right so that he I |
5988s | don't get the additional tree impact |
5990s | moving forward so that is a a pretty |
5992s | good decision but he missed out on the |
5994s | trade onto the owl cat so |
5996s | um you know you give and take a little |
5997s | bit at this point in time |
5998s | that's right and now of course still |
6000s | four units remaining on the side of |
6002s | alpha King and now we're going to be |
6004s | summoning another unit in this is |
6006s | ceaseless send 38 okay so uh it's uh |
6009s | much like the avarosis Sentry but no |
6011s | it's going to be Shadow Alice and now |
6012s | going to show me a 13-13 nasus right |
6016s | there it's uh it's on the brink of |
6018s | getting prop and is there any wave uh |
6021s | for Alpha King to remove this I'm |
6023s | looking at it none as at the moment |
6025s | right |
6026s | uh it's yeah that the only way is to |
6029s | block with our cat right but the nesters |
6031s | get to uh flip as well so it's not |
6034s | looking great for Alpha king and you |
6036s | know going into the next round you know |
6038s | the Nestles is going to be sacrificed to |
6040s | the Helia and he gets himself a a |
6042s | rekindler the next turn and the |
6044s | rekindler is going to give in another |
6045s | nessus and and you know the train is |
6047s | going to be starting to roll at this |
6049s | point in time so it's not looking good |
6051s | for Alpha King but at the same time |
6053s | Alpha King have the bot state to sustain |
6055s | he have a second Gunner coming in for |
6057s | this turn as well so it's looking great |
6059s | for Alpha King group shot coming in just |
6061s | to deny uh nessus from that level up |
6064s | nice nice up Rock right there and |
6066s | another band of Gunners is gonna be |
6069s | bundling up and I feel I feel man that |
6072s | there there is a huge amount of damage |
6075s | maybe coming in but those quicksands are |
6078s | are gonna be quite the choice right here |
6081s | just a counter like uh any uh any damage |
6085s | coming in like also uh negating the |
6087s | keywords and impacts right there oh man |
6089s | this is going to be quite a turn and |
6091s | quite a surprise for Alpha King on this |
6094s | turn considering the TS a total of uh |
6097s | one two three four like uh five units |
6100s | coming in and look at that that's gonna |
6102s | be the answer and there you go |
6106s | it's he has to do it twice because |
6108s | there's like a spell shoot right now |
6109s | right yep so double quick send coming in |
6112s | you know he's just taking fall damage |
6113s | this turn four second is still pretty |
6115s | healthy |
6116s | but he got the decision to make right do |
6118s | he does he want to |
6120s | um take out one of the Gunner at least |
6122s | in this fight but he chooses not to like |
6125s | you know just flip the the nessus and |
6127s | just try to you know do a little bit |
6129s | more pythons coming in just to deny the |
6131s | nurses from the foot once again ah yeah |
6133s | yeah it's not looking good uh but I mean |
6136s | overall you know four seconds managed to |
6138s | survive this uh this big swing coming in |
6140s | from him so we just have to see how this |
6143s | works |
6144s | I mean Alpha King knows his neck quite |
6146s | well especially again going against a |
6148s | NASA's deck and with those uh preventive |
6151s | uh pastries if I have foreign |
6158s | but of course uh he's gonna be having |
6160s | one more uh perilous pastry right there |
6163s | that deals one to anything so he's |
6165s | trying to bring down uh all of the |
6167s | damage and when he gets uh another uh |
6170s | useful unit uh that he may use and he |
6173s | there's a tender right there that can |
6175s | give another another impact but um he |
6179s | needs more of uh the damage like he's |
6183s | just bogging down one unit at a time |
6187s | like our one Nexus HP at the time |
6190s | and oh right of negation right right it |
6193s | counts man uh I mean those are good |
6195s | negate like right on negation coming in |
6197s | cycling strike a minute going in trying |
6199s | to take out one of the Gunner but the |
6201s | Gunner is the problem right as of right |
6203s | now four seconds really have to remove |
6205s | those Gunners as fast as possible if not |
6208s | um it's gonna get him punished this |
6210s | gunnel has three impacts so if you don't |
6212s | remove it anytime soon you know it's |
6215s | gonna be game over the next attack |
6216s | coming in from from alpha King |
6219s | right and look at that there's going to |
6221s | be a flip coming in from that nasus |
6223s | going into 1919. you know I remember |
6225s | those days when I crossed the was |
6228s | already still independent this is |
6230s | basically a no-brainer go across these |
6232s | straight into straight interface or |
6233s | straight into the Nexus man like that's |
6236s | the play but of course this is a a new |
6238s | uh New Generation uh uh for uh legendera |
6243s | and we're gonna be seeing that manual |
6245s | damage coming in but of course it can |
6248s | still be blocked right there you know |
6249s | with the 33 and going up with another |
6252s | eye of the khaboros there's going to be |
6254s | the draw and okay |
6262s | it's just looking great for Alpha King |
6264s | right even though four second managed to |
6266s | level up the the NASA's the the iron |
6269s | crystal is level up right here play the |
6273s | hour cat or even the uh the mushroom the |
6276s | grandfather right and and he just just |
6280s | gets so much impact damage moving |
6282s | forward so and Alpha King just have to |
6284s | allow that Gunner to survive and it's |
6286s | gonna be looking good for him at this |
6287s | point |
6288s | yeah it's looking really uh good |
6291s | considering that there is no uh |
6294s | lifesteal choices coming in from the |
6296s | side of uh 40 seconds right now and that |
6300s | 2020 like that's it's a huge hammer |
6303s | but it's not getting anywhere man like |
6306s | uh even putting down a Tristana over the |
6307s | side of alpha King even flipped as well |
6309s | and with the impact oh my gosh that's |
6312s | gonna be quite a tool for the next turn |
6315s | and |
6316s | and look at those predictions uh coming |
6319s | in or rather the draw for the way or |
6323s | rather the uh The Landmark right there |
6325s | and the tenor with more impacts like we |
6329s | see one two three four units with |
6332s | impacts with a total of one two three |
6334s | four five six ten impact damage now any |
6337s | one of these gets to hit and that's |
6339s | gonna be it right there right moon boy |
6342s | like you need at least two of these guys |
6344s | to hit and that's gonna be it it's over |
6347s | yeah right like even the shurima tell |
6350s | Stone can't do much at this point in |
6352s | time I mean shrima spells don't need to |
6354s | Spirit fire yeah like that is a possible |
6357s | way that he could yeah and this could |
6360s | actually uh but at the same time there's |
6362s | nothing that he could do yeah right this |
6365s | impact damage is just too much for him |
6366s | to deal with |
6367s | you know talk about impactful moves |
6370s | right there one boy and yeah he just |
6373s | needs to go in and attack and it's gonna |
6375s | go straight and there you go with the |
6377s | Shannon mode coming in from four seconds |
6378s | and that means he knows what's coming to |
6381s | him and that's gonna be the Tristana uh |
6384s | draw from the eye of and that's it one |
6389s | zero for Alpha King and he gets the |
6392s | first win right uh four second can still |
6395s | use that uh NASA stack right there and |
6397s | the amazing play uh especially with the |
6400s | Tristana that's why it's already like |
6401s | it's ubiquitous you get to see a lot of |
6403s | these decks being used in tournaments |
6405s | because it's that good the the impact |
6407s | and the consistency and the the wideness |
6410s | of the board is already right there you |
6411s | can see it right there yeah it does any |
6414s | highlights from that game man I mean |
6416s | it's just bad matchup coming in for for |
6418s | two seconds right we get to see a very |
6420s | big masses but |
6421s | um Alpha King did a very good job |
6423s | denying the lessons from flipping all |
6425s | the time so and and you know four |
6427s | seconds coming into the second batch of |
6428s | sticking on to this NASA's deck so this |
6430s | might make a difference coming in right |
6432s | if he can control El from the |
6435s | very beginning and having the Helia in |
6436s | his starting hand is going to be helping |
6438s | him so much more in this matchup yes and |
6441s | they're looking at their the starting |
6443s | draw of alpha King it's kinda you know |
6447s | it's kind of not early you know not |
6450s | early uh uh domination uh you can see |
6454s | that the the uh the atroc is right there |
6456s | we're seeing some uh some equipment |
6458s | warm-up is already right there it's not |
6461s | the the hand that you would want to have |
6463s | you would want to develop more into the |
6465s | equipment and now you can see drawn out |
6468s | is going to be the quietest there you go |
6469s | as I was talking we see one unit uh or |
6473s | the uh possibly being drawn out right |
6476s | there but of course the control is still |
6479s | going to be on four second side so I've |
6480s | seen this may be a chance for set for a |
6483s | second to go in and uh just dominate |
6485s | especially on the next turn he's gonna |
6487s | be summoning that landmark uh this is |
6490s | his opening right this is opening to do |
6492s | what he needs to do oh you know |
6494s | this deck is is spectacularly slow right |
6497s | there's not much that you know um you |
6499s | know he could do in the first at least |
6501s | three to four turns until the queen or |
6503s | the vein actually pops up and you know |
6506s | it might be it might look at like a very |
6508s | good or like opportunity for him to go |
6510s | for the quietest this turn but this is |
6512s | what 42 seconds is actually doing is |
6514s | we're expecting that form up to deny |
6516s | that quieter so that's a very good move |
6518s | coming in from from four four uh four |
6520s | seconds and he's respecting everything |
6521s | that Alpha King does |
6523s | yeah so the that's indeed the uh the the |
6526s | possibility right there they're just |
6528s | trying to uh match up any possible |
6530s | answers uh that uh that the alpha King |
6533s | may have for any quietus and now he goes |
6536s | on with the uh an attack with the |
6538s | defender and with the Elkin a total of |
6541s | six damage right there uh gonna be a |
6543s | trade but of course I'm not sure I'm |
6546s | pretty sure he's gonna be using the one |
6548s | cause burst spell just to uh equip uh or |
6551s | there's no equipment okay so just to get |
6553s | just to make it like a three uh three |
6556s | two or rather a plus one plus one three |
6559s | three that could be possible because if |
6561s | we do equip that Elkin it's gonna have |
6564s | um uh tough right so it's gonna be uh a |
6567s | choice down the line at uh if you do |
6569s | have equipment you may protect them |
6572s | oh wow okay so it's gonna be traded in |
6575s | uh the defender is gonna get uh the the |
6578s | free damage right there with four damage |
6580s | straight into the Nexus of four seconds |
6582s | it's fine right but you know right here |
6584s | he's totally cool with fish fight |
6586s | immediately trying to remove uh one of |
6588s | the units away from four seconds and you |
6591s | know that's a very smart move coming in |
6592s | but the spike coming down you know not |
6594s | allowing him like you know allowing |
6596s | himself to have a little bit more |
6597s | breathing room with the broad uh with |
6599s | the Helia and sacrificing this uh husk |
6602s | is gonna give himself a a two course |
6604s | unit as well it's like gonna be a |
6605s | ceaseless Century yes the ceaseless |
6608s | Century not stopping anywhere soon and |
6612s | this is a good train that you're going |
6614s | right you get the husk you get a Sentry |
6616s | you get to draw something else and you |
6619s | get to summon something else as well |
6621s | now this is going to be uh the next turn |
6624s | is going to be another possibly another |
6626s | Shepherd going down or Asian |
6628s | preparations There You Go nature |
6630s | preparations |
6632s | what did he get did he get the Glimpse |
6634s | Beyond |
6635s | it's either Glimpse Beyond a soul |
6637s | Harvest Right these are the two cuts |
6638s | that is possible double heli are coming |
6640s | in once again and we might see a a you |
6643s | know rock bear into a nessus into a |
6647s | rekindler into a nurses that's going to |
6651s | be a huge Nest coming in after so many |
6652s | trades off from to hell yeah yes the |
6656s | faults of hell yeah have already been |
6658s | you know committed in to this match now |
6661s | you can see only three units or three |
6663s | spaces for units but because the |
6666s | landmarks have been uh put in but of |
6669s | course the clock link may go down they |
6670s | go out over at the next turn so I'm |
6673s | wondering as to how the uh the proc is |
6675s | going to be going here over at the mixer |
6677s | but yeah the NASA is gonna keep on |
6680s | getting bigger and over at the side of |
6682s | alpha King uh huh |
6685s | I'm not sure how this way is going to go |
6688s | because the aatrox is going to go down |
6690s | to six and um uh you know equipment is |
6693s | gonna be right there eight rocks it's |
6695s | going to be six six with the darkened |
6697s | blade |
6699s | yeah I mean |
6702s | not enough right let's look at this it's |
6704s | not going to be an attack here yeah but |
6706s | in a four second what he's trying to do |
6708s | right what you could do right here is |
6709s | quiet us remove the weapon away from |
6712s | aatrox yeah so this way there's no um |
6716s | regen onto aatrox and and bringing a |
6719s | trucks down to five five so this way |
6720s | like you know the aatrox is still in |
6722s | check and there's not like you know |
6724s | there's not much that he could do and |
6726s | the word and the could not you know do |
6728s | too much or like do any time like much |
6731s | of a thing anytime soon but this is very |
6733s | good pass like coming in like you know |
6734s | just going in get the deaths and Ada |
6736s | gets a darkness that can do AOE damage |
6738s | that costs zero and the gas and Ada um |
6741s | yeah and this is just flow right good |
6743s | flow coming in big AOE swing coming in |
6746s | and and it's gonna be 42 seconds going |
6748s | in for the uh big swing and there's |
6750s | nothing much that Alpha King could do |
6752s | um other than the format |
6754s | yeah I think the warm-up will be uh able |
6757s | to protect that the defender right there |
6759s | bringing it up to Sixth Street and the |
6761s | Elkin will not get removed as well so |
6763s | they will be surviving and there is |
6766s | going to be a lot of attack that will be |
6768s | coming in from the side of uh for a |
6771s | second we see not uh two 11 18 20 |
6775s | effective damage and this is a |
6779s | he might go for an attack right now I |
6782s | think |
6783s | that that's going to be uh the the |
6786s | sensible move like he goes in with |
6788s | attack with the two |
6789s | and he needs to get the like there's |
6793s | there's two units that can't defend oh |
6794s | there you go Defender |
6796s | oh |
6798s | he's not gonna be defended with the a |
6800s | troughs right there |
6801s | I don't think that it's smart to defend |
6803s | with the eight trucks right you want the |
6804s | aatrox to stay you want the a-trucks to |
6806s | try to um go into the world and but the |
6809s | world is like 16 Mana right now and it's |
6811s | close to impossible to actually yeah |
6813s | um fire it off so |
6816s | um there's nothing much that Alpha King |
6817s | could do right here you have to go on |
6819s | the defense and try to sustain a little |
6821s | bit more uh condemn is something that he |
6823s | have right if you attack two times his |
6824s | turn plus five less and Ally strikes and |
6827s | enemy and you know this actually allows |
6829s | the play for Alpha King to go for the |
6830s | condemn onto Genesis and that could you |
6834s | know potentially trade him off and and |
6836s | just take out the nurses |
6837s | right it's gonna be a good uh condemn |
6840s | right there and uh this is going to be |
6843s | um you know a good trade-off uh but now |
6847s | he thinks or I think he's gonna hovering |
6849s | over fish fight oh yeah it's okay it's |
6852s | okay to go with the fish fight but um |
6855s | we might see a oh wait there might see a |
6859s | quick concert yeah yeah quick set to |
6861s | counter this |
6866s | is amazing like you see a lot of the |
6868s | counters that's why the NASA's deck |
6870s | thrives in this environment like you |
6873s | have counters uh from uh from Joshua |
6876s | Rima uh pile or from the shirima region |
6879s | uh you have |
6881s | um uh you'll have answers uh you have |
6884s | like a board presence in terms of your |
6885s | uh the the landmark and |
6888s | wow okay so no answer let's go okay all |
6892s | right |
6894s | okay so what is the possible play right |
6896s | here for uh for a second right like it |
6899s | the the only the biggest unit right here |
6901s | is the Sentry |
6903s | and the century is going to be turning |
6904s | into a Shepherd but there's no space for |
6907s | him to um have a rock bear so I'm not |
6911s | sure how how this interaction is going |
6914s | to be like and |
6916s | how you know is he gonna be trying to |
6918s | remove these eight trucks and the only |
6920s | way that I could see it is quieter than |
6922s | just remove the the sword that that |
6925s | aatrox is holding |
6926s | yeah just removed that weapon right |
6928s | there there's the equipment and now of |
6930s | course there's going to be a spike and |
6933s | that's gonna be used and you know you're |
6936s | gonna see some removals and I feel |
6939s | um we see for a second make some space |
6941s | this him getting some space in so that |
6945s | he will be able to put out another uh uh |
6948s | bear uh Landmark right there with the |
6950s | Rock Beer Shepherd |
6952s | there you go yeah so rock bear Shepard |
6955s | is going to be changing into a creme |
6956s | bruyne dragon and a second trigger is |
6959s | gonna bring him into a rampaging car |
6962s | so you know he's likely still having a |
6965s | big unit moving forward but I don't |
6967s | think it's big enough to deal with an |
6968s | aatrox |
6970s | yeah definitely not good enough to deal |
6973s | with that eight rocks and again the |
6975s | world enter is nowhere to be seen like |
6977s | because you know that's why I was saying |
6980s | it was a bit slow because he wasn't he |
6983s | wasn't able to equip uh with any uh |
6986s | darken right so it it's gonna be nowhere |
6990s | inside like that's that's going to be |
6991s | another that's a possible win condition |
6993s | or possible uh ending condition world |
6996s | ending condition uh but he's not going |
6998s | to be using it right now and |
7001s | um now of course uh the Broadway |
7002s | Countryside it has been drawn out and |
7004s | there's going to be a quietest that's |
7006s | going to be used instead over at its own |
7009s | unit and he gets a glimpse Beyond which |
7010s | is good like he is running out of steam |
7012s | a list Beyond could really help |
7015s | yeah I mean the Glimpse Beyond allowing |
7017s | him to get a bit of draw power and and |
7019s | 42 is actually losing when it comes to |
7021s | uh options in his hand right here right |
7023s | and right now it's likely going to be a |
7025s | NASA's moving in and just go for the |
7028s | swing and see what you you could do |
7029s | right at 15 15 lessons actually uh |
7032s | forces Alpha King to go for the block |
7034s | right here and both units that Alpha |
7036s | King is holding is pretty premium and |
7038s | and you know he has to sacrifice one of |
7041s | that at this point in time |
7042s | yeah and over at the side of uh Alpha |
7045s | King he gets to summon a napkin right |
7047s | like and that guy's uh one of the uh you |
7050s | can convert like one of the darken |
7052s | weapons or the dark equipment they're |
7053s | just called Target spear you can convert |
7055s | it into anaka if you use eight mana and |
7058s | you know what's good about it is that um |
7061s | when you attack from the top six cards |
7063s | of your deck someone at the attacking |
7065s | follower or non-champ in Target and |
7068s | granted plus one plus one which is good |
7069s | for cycling out your deck as well like |
7071s | since he's gonna be uh running out of |
7073s | units down the line and now he puts on |
7075s | another equipment okay draws out another |
7079s | eight trucks so he's he's trying to get |
7082s | there but that uh nasus is just too big |
7085s | man there's gonna be sacrifices yeah and |
7089s | and if Alpha King is going in for the |
7090s | swing and his he have to switch with the |
7092s | uh in that car right |
7095s | um The Nest is definitely going to be |
7096s | flipping right here and just six damage |
7098s | on to four seconds is not too big of a |
7102s | problem as the Rampage Makai could block |
7104s | uh one of the the the the uh attacking |
7107s | units as well taking out the eight |
7109s | trucks just take seven is totally okay |
7111s | four four two second to actually deal |
7113s | with this that's right and now look at |
7115s | that there's going to be seven damage |
7116s | but oh man the flipped laces NASA swords |
7121s | right here and we have seen this uh time |
7123s | and again man over at the past seasons |
7126s | nasus is quite a uh forced to be uh |
7129s | reacted with and now of course this |
7131s | might this may definitely be the chance |
7134s | for uh for a second to go in like look |
7137s | at this man the he is unstopped as of |
7141s | the moment he will just go straight into |
7143s | rickinder bring it up to 20 20. oh that |
7147s | I think that's that's a lot it's |
7150s | blockable |
7151s | right but man this he's going to be |
7154s | taking eight damage |
7156s | yeah I mean this is a very good push |
7159s | coming in from four seconds right that's |
7161s | it's eight damage moving in putting out |
7162s | at seven he has three units to |
7164s | block with there's not much units left |
7166s | in Alpha King's hand and the only way is |
7169s | to turn you know um weapons into units |
7172s | to actually allow him to get more space |
7174s | and actually have more advantage against |
7176s | for a second and it's and with the |
7178s | debuff coming in from nasus is not |
7180s | looking good for Alpha King at this |
7182s | point |
7184s | as well |
7186s | yeah I mean you're uh we're trying to |
7188s | see some Development coming in from |
7190s | outlooking but it's a bit slow uh with |
7193s | this deck um and uh we kind of pointed |
7195s | out that you know he there's not much on |
7198s | his hand right now and what they're |
7199s | seeing in 40 seconds is like the the |
7201s | perfect draw like uh the shepherd and |
7204s | you get the balls of hell yeah and |
7205s | that's it I was already right there and |
7207s | he goes in with the world and the |
7210s | Transformations right here is there's |
7213s | gonna be just one right like one |
7215s | transformation over at the broadwing |
7217s | pressure side yep there you have will |
7219s | end up coming in eight trucks leveling |
7221s | up as well |
7223s | so it's looking good it's looking good |
7226s | for for Alpha King right here with a |
7228s | ninth and eight trucks with Challenger |
7230s | with overwhelm and four seconds just at |
7233s | least gonna be removing it that's a Duo |
7234s | just take it out of that out of |
7235s | commission yeah other king this might be |
7237s | checkmate |
7239s | Checkmate indeed even though you get |
7241s | like a uh a plus two Health from the uh |
7244s | from the eight drops right there from |
7246s | the weapon and you know this is gonna be |
7249s | it this is gonna be an open attack and |
7251s | there's no way for Alpha King to get in |
7255s | and stop that train that 40 second is |
7258s | gonna be pushing in five four nine plus |
7261s | four thirteen plus twenty two oh man 13 |
7265s | plus 22 35 effective damage as of the |
7268s | moment wow this is it boom boom boom |
7272s | boom that's it |
7274s | 42nd his first win 1-1 man oh wow dude |
7279s | this guy like this guy is always you |
7281s | know having fun making a fool out of |
7283s | himself on his stream but when him when |
7286s | he's in a tournament he's always putting |
7288s | his 110 and that that particular round |
7291s | showed us you know his determination and |
7293s | how hungry he's gonna win and that he |
7295s | wants to win and actually move forward |
7297s | in this tournament next round is going |
7299s | to be that this Tristana Timo going up |
7300s | against the vein Queen aatrox and it's |
7303s | just interesting right a white board |
7305s | going up against a mid-range kind of |
7306s | like uh style what do you think of this |
7309s | matchup you know I think of this matchup |
7311s | um you would uh there are there are |
7313s | cards or there are there are like |
7316s | Challengers that may be used right there |
7318s | with the patricide Broadband for you to |
7320s | Target some of the other units but in |
7322s | terms of uh going head to head with the |
7324s | units like if you do butt heads with the |
7326s | with the eight rocks uh vein uh deck um |
7329s | you're gonna be |
7331s | um stopping short because of all the |
7332s | tough that's going to be having that's |
7334s | going to be had on his side now if 40 |
7338s | seconds just goes on Fast and strong and |
7341s | he's going to be dominating like on the |
7343s | first turn you get a Teemo and there's |
7345s | no answer coming in from this deck |
7346s | there's no way for you to answer this |
7349s | deck with a a little if I remember |
7351s | correctly yeah no there's no elusive |
7355s | yeah not much elusive counter except for |
7357s | the blocking Badger bear that's it |
7359s | so this is going to be you know uh |
7363s | one-sided at most You're Gonna Keep on |
7365s | taking the damage it's going to be |
7367s | coming in from alpha King but you're |
7369s | going to be pushing much more damage |
7371s | that he is uh dishing out then the alpha |
7374s | can dishing out so we might see another |
7376s | win for for a second right here yeah |
7378s | it's looking good right he got the curve |
7380s | he got the Tristana he got the mayor |
7381s | looking forward as well fish fight |
7383s | trying to just remove that want to just |
7386s | normal our cat for you and just removing |
7388s | one of your elusive unit and you know 42 |
7391s | seconds just looking strong right he |
7392s | have they have that Teemo |
7399s | it's difficult to actually heat that |
7401s | right and you know just equipping Teemo |
7404s | with more damage potential |
7406s | and he's just going in for the swing |
7408s | again and again there's there's no way |
7409s | that Alpha King could remove the Teemo |
7411s | until the queen at turn five |
7413s | yeah that's right this is gonna be the |
7415s | Valor that's gonna be coming out at turn |
7417s | five and you know you the part of pain |
7420s | you add attack you add HP and you add |
7424s | impact I I believe I do believe it's one |
7426s | of the more powerful uh equipments right |
7428s | there and the defender is going to be |
7429s | coming out that this is going to be |
7432s | um quite a difficult uh unit to block |
7434s | especially since it has you know uh it |
7437s | has uh tough it has Scout it's just |
7440s | gonna keep on pushing and right now and |
7443s | the tenor of Terror looks like it might |
7445s | be the the choice here like it's you you |
7448s | have two units you have two units with |
7450s | impact and oh he goes in with the polo |
7452s | instead maybe a jump block yeah he needs |
7455s | to Defender as of right now right like |
7457s | even though this uh six three Scouts |
7459s | have have |
7460s | um tough but he have to block this |
7462s | damage because it's not this amount of |
7464s | damage it's just gonna be stacking up on |
7465s | him he's not gonna be taking what like |
7467s | nine or even 15 damage this turn and you |
7471s | know he have to stop blocking the the |
7473s | ranger Knight Defender if not it's too |
7475s | late for him |
7477s | yes it's right and now of course he's |
7479s | gonna go you're gonna be going for the |
7480s | favorable trade uh he's gonna go down to |
7483s | 12 and of course over there's gonna be a |
7487s | summon from that darkened weapon and I |
7490s | feel it's gonna be a flip coming in from |
7493s | the side of uh 42nd uh since there are |
7496s | no blockers wait I didn't see the draw |
7499s | oh okay it's not getting vegetable yeah |
7504s | it's not gonna be uh an unblocked Teemo |
7507s | man no |
7510s | no Tebow is so close to flipping yeah |
7514s | oh wait wait what |
7517s | oh he's lacking timogo okay all right |
7522s | why though okay yeah why though I feel |
7525s | like you know Alpha King is trying to |
7527s | remove Teemo the next turn but three |
7529s | damage coming in just from the Teemo is |
7530s | too much right and with the uh the war |
7533s | shaft and sorry the combat cook right |
7536s | you have to block with either the uh |
7539s | broad Wing or if The Defector and I |
7542s | don't think you want to block The |
7543s | Defector here and you're just basically |
7545s | wasting a broad Wing this might be a |
7546s | misplay coming in from alpha King yeah I |
7548s | was thinking that the badger bear would |
7550s | be a play right there because the the |
7553s | buff caps are not to be you know uh not |
7557s | to be trifled with like you don't |
7558s | underestimate the puff caps right there |
7560s | and he's gonna be putting in a vein |
7562s | where the tumble right there that might |
7565s | be a good uh a good tool oh especially |
7569s | uh oh man this is gonna be quite a show |
7573s | ouch you have a form up right there man |
7577s | this is painful right for a second half |
7579s | might have to block with the mayor yeah |
7583s | yeah it's either you take six then make |
7585s | sure you sacrifice your mayor of your |
7587s | town yeah he's taking six damage right |
7589s | here and he has to start playing |
7591s | um defensive units if not it's not going |
7593s | to be looking good for him upcycle Rick |
7595s | it looks good on the Teemo so but |
7598s | I'm just being greedy so |
7602s | okay okay I don't know how this is gonna |
7606s | go man like Alpha King is just going uh |
7610s | going straight at it like he has |
7613s | he has effective like a possible lethal |
7616s | if the if if 40 seconds doesn't block |
7618s | he's he's putting him in a quarter right |
7620s | uh 40 seconds now in a corner he needs |
7624s | to block with the units right like three |
7627s | units right there and of course a tumble |
7629s | may be used and instead of course he |
7632s | pulls out a Tristana |
7634s | oh man this is it's so close man it's so |
7638s | close uh what do you think uh moon boy |
7640s | which one of these will reveal |
7643s | I I think you know it's still pretty |
7645s | close as of right now right but Alpha |
7647s | King half that tumble so 42 seconds have |
7650s | to respect the tumble and The Defector |
7652s | right it tumbling The Defector on his |
7656s | um defense on Alpha King's defensive |
7657s | turn that allows a double Combat coming |
7660s | in from alpha King as well so you know |
7662s | four second might have to just remove |
7665s | this this scout unit if not it's going |
7668s | to be too late and instead you know he |
7670s | didn't go for the KO there uh it might |
7673s | look a little bit more concerning for |
7675s | for uh for for four seconds yeah yeah I |
7679s | mean |
7680s | um from what it looks like right now I |
7682s | feel if Alpha King didn't uh block the |
7686s | uh the the Teemo right there but still |
7690s | yeah it's still moving forward I still |
7692s | think the vein |
7693s | uh the vein play uh could have could |
7696s | still be played with the badger but I |
7697s | don't know but yeah I mean uh the fumble |
7700s | right there is gonna be putting some |
7701s | more attack tokens over at his side even |
7704s | though he recently lost his attack token |
7706s | so there's gonna be a free attack you |
7708s | know targeting that Defender with the |
7710s | tumble so this is gonna be good because |
7713s | you have a quick attack you have a scout |
7715s | and you have your uh you're tough right |
7718s | there so this is gonna be a no-brainer |
7721s | considering that the 40 second doesn't |
7723s | have any more Mana to play with yeah it |
7725s | forces for a second to actually uh block |
7728s | with the cook right and just take the |
7730s | Cook Out and uh four seconds it's gonna |
7733s | be start starting off the turn with the |
7735s | gunners yeah yeah so uh and another |
7739s | Tumble from the top deck for Alpha King |
7740s | and he could respond with a tumble |
7742s | himself to to have a a double attack |
7746s | distance also there's so much pressure |
7748s | coming in from four seconds and it's not |
7750s | gonna be looking easy for him to |
7752s | actually turn the tights around for this |
7754s | round this might be the final term of |
7755s | this game yes and this might be the turn |
7758s | the alpha King plays a blocking Badger |
7760s | bear there you go there we go there you |
7763s | go there's sharp sight in uh in uniform |
7766s | and you can see that the hungry owl cat |
7769s | is also going to be used in the pumping |
7772s | up the Tristana right there tumble is |
7775s | gonna be used towards that Defender and |
7778s | wow double attack token turn especially |
7781s | on 40 seconds turn but 42nd has a lot of |
7784s | damage that uh he has and vayne is gonna |
7787s | be propped as well oh my gosh look at |
7790s | that animation oh amazing now |
7793s | this attack Esports is basically forcing |
7796s | uh 40 seconds just okay where where are |
7799s | units I'm gonna be removing it yeah so |
7801s | this is basically removal right combat |
7803s | removal and and the the adventure night |
7806s | Defector is just so strong six damage |
7808s | and 42 seconds is only at six Health |
7810s | there's nothing much that he could do at |
7812s | this point in time but to go for the |
7814s | full swing and you know looking at at |
7816s | the um the the amount of damage that he |
7820s | could do this turn is only 7 damage |
7822s | based off impact and he might clear the |
7825s | board of alpha King as well so this |
7827s | might be a good back swing the 42 second |
7829s | is actually looking for and he have to |
7831s | do it quick yeah he has to do it really |
7833s | quick right now and there's going to be |
7835s | two units going to be taken out uh from |
7838s | that tumble like he's not really |
7840s | tumbling as at the moment and you're |
7842s | right like you're gonna be uh he's gonna |
7844s | be dealing seven effective damage with |
7846s | the impact only right and uh if he does |
7850s | attack with the Teemo it will be blocked |
7853s | by the badger bear here but there is |
7855s | still a form up to just go with the uh |
7857s | with the favorable trade I'm not sure if |
7859s | he's going to be using that as well uh |
7860s | but yeah just to keep just to make sure |
7863s | that the there's going to be extra |
7865s | damage oh wow he switches paper oh to |
7868s | another weapon instead okay that's okay |
7870s | that's not going in he's going in for |
7873s | the kill it's like I got a big Teemo |
7875s | what you gonna do and you know he's just |
7877s | going for the big swing securing six |
7879s | impact damage this turn forcing the |
7881s | badger badge to go for the block right |
7883s | and and removing it at the same time and |
7885s | you know taking out The Defector this |
7887s | turn is huge it's definitely huge for |
7890s | for uh for a second |
7892s | you have to block the Teemo yes he has |
7895s | to block the Teemo he's gonna be taking |
7897s | six damage so uh I'm I feel that 40 |
7900s | seconds is gonna be he's saying like I I |
7903s | think I'm just gonna be using the weapon |
7905s | because I'm my Ace is gonna be up to up |
7909s | my sleeve I don't want my uh my form up |
7911s | there exposed and over at the side of |
7915s | alpha King he may put down a Quinn or |
7918s | maybe a flea Fender tracker first and |
7920s | then a Quinn and then just go ahead with |
7923s | the uh with the uh with the scouts right |
7926s | but over at the side of 42nd he still |
7928s | has some removable tools especially uh |
7931s | with that shot yeah I mean four seconds |
7934s | is just looking |
7935s | um comfortable as of right now right he |
7937s | got the group shot he could remove those |
7939s | challenges as well |
7941s | um he got the Gunner as an additional |
7943s | blocker he could even add more HP onto |
7946s | the chemo with the uh the impact weapon |
7950s | as well the pot right he got the form up |
7952s | he's just comfortable right here um he's |
7954s | pretty chill and Alpha King is the one |
7956s | that is behind he got two three weapons |
7959s | in his hand and you know he could |
7961s | actually turn the Hub to I don't think |
7963s | he can turn the Hub to anything uh the |
7966s | yeah to turn the weapon into a unit is |
7968s | just too expensive at this point in time |
7970s | and yeah it just you know hopefully for |
7974s | for two seconds actually played out and |
7976s | yeah oh he went |
7979s | yeah he goes in with that I think that's |
7982s | salami |
7983s | yeah right oh wow okay that's good uh |
7988s | that we're seeing right now and uh |
7990s | Solani uh is uh from the dark in uh the |
7994s | dark and blood letters like you get uh |
7995s | you have to kill an ally to summon this |
7998s | and uh it's already a 7-7 with overwhelm |
8001s | he wants that damage to come in and uh |
8003s | wants to go in with a tumble like okay |
8006s | so what are you gonna do like you want |
8008s | me to push this damage on to your face |
8011s | but you have to uh you have to sacrifice |
8014s | one of your units and over the next turn |
8016s | I feel uh that that uh Teemo is gonna be |
8020s | unblocked |
8021s | so for a second has a great chance of |
8024s | winning here |
8025s | so if you know this tombow is going to |
8028s | happen the docking Hub is going to be |
8029s | adding two more damage onto the zolani |
8031s | and that's 9-7 right and four second |
8034s | have no choice but to let the bundle |
8036s | Gunner go and take two damage and his |
8039s | key card is gonna be on that Teemo for |
8041s | sure |
8042s | that's right |
8043s | oh man |
8045s | this is gonna be uh uh quite a uh quite |
8049s | an answer |
8050s | uh coming in from alpha King he feels |
8053s | that okay I'm gonna be pushing this |
8054s | damage you have to sacrifice some of |
8056s | your units and he's gonna be doing that |
8058s | like um he's gonna be sacrificing uh |
8061s | Tristana he's gonna be sacrificing uh |
8064s | his uh very own uh big units right there |
8066s | over at this side free impact so this is |
8070s | you know getting a harp getting some |
8072s | quick attack |
8073s | he's gonna be pushing uh total effective |
8076s | damage of two right there and then |
8078s | afterwards if he does go with us uh with |
8081s | the the block with a |
8083s | oh man |
8085s | and if it does go with block with a |
8087s | there you go I was thinking like he |
8089s | needs to block with this he needs a |
8091s | block with uh with uh with the format |
8094s | because if he doesn't use it he's gonna |
8096s | get destroyed right |
8098s | it's basically it this is Shannon mode |
8099s | saying okay I'm done it's almost it's |
8102s | over |
8105s | no no oh no |
8109s | okay so the ducking Hub allows zolani to |
8112s | have that quick attack and to take out |
8115s | the the banner Gunner |
8118s | wait he could have blocked still |
8121s | right nine nine nine um quick attack |
8124s | damage onto The Gardener's nine health |
8125s | and that's not enough that's a one is to |
8128s | one three uh one is the one damage and |
8130s | the first strike take out the Gunner and |
8132s | the zulani survives okay okay okay so I |
8135s | was thinking like he could uh he could |
8137s | um |
8139s | uh block with the uh the Teemo |
8142s | the Timo got blocked right the team will |
8144s | come back |
8147s | oh yeah okay I was thinking like oh okay |
8152s | okay I was seeking for another uh that |
8154s | uh he wasn't uh he didn't have that |
8156s | equipment and he had this pot of pain |
8158s | okay so I wasn't looking at it quite uh |
8161s | clearly so that that just got me |
8164s | um you know with a doubt because look |
8165s | what's happening oh it's a ducking hop |
8168s | is the ducking hop that changed |
8169s | everything and that was a very good move |
8171s | coming in from alpha King just really |
8173s | unfortunate for four seconds like he got |
8175s | the win the next turn with the Teemo |
8177s | attack it's just that you know he can't |
8179s | get to the next turn then yeah that's |
8182s | right it's very unfortunate and then of |
8184s | course with the the quick attack uh from |
8186s | this uh on the Solani with the dark and |
8188s | harp as well with the overwhelm there's |
8189s | just so much damage is coming in and uh |
8192s | well amazing play uh for Alpha King 42nd |
8196s | great effort uh reaching top 32 and you |
8199s | know uh |
8200s | amazing effort like getting there and we |
8203s | can see the the the deck the Tristana |
8206s | deck can be defeated like especially |
8208s | with this uh this uh vein uh eight rocks |
8212s | wind Deck like you see the darkened deck |
8215s | uh stepping up especially when it counts |
8218s | and it's it's not overwhelming like the |
8221s | wind you even see them go up against |
8223s | each other with a six six Health do you |
8226s | see like both of them like going Toe to |
8227s | Toe like it all comes down to the cars |
8229s | it all comes down to holding out which |
8231s | cards you have up until the last moment |
8234s | and you know you know uh with that |
8236s | switch as well I was thinking maybe uh |
8239s | that last switch of 42nd with the |
8241s | equipment was kind of um you know on |
8244s | clutch right there uh but going back if |
8247s | he instead use the uh the form up to |
8249s | remove the badger bear you would still |
8251s | have no form up over at the next turn to |
8254s | use to block that uh Solani so still |
8258s | um still going to be the end game still |
8260s | going to be Alpha King uh moving forward |
8262s | yeah I mean overall you know like what |
8264s | you said it's a very smooth game both |
8266s | player played it to their best of |
8267s | ability this is a tournament this is |
8269s | single elimination right here one |
8271s | mistake and off you go and and you know |
8273s | I'm fortunate to see four two four two |
8275s | seconds actually leave the stage right |
8277s | here but he in fact did a very good job |
8280s | so big props to him and congratulations |
8281s | to Alpha King for moving straight right |
8284s | to the um top eight rounds so you know |
8287s | ladies and gentlemen do not go anywhere |
8289s | as we were going for a very short break |
8291s | as we will be back later on for More |

8853s | hey guys welcome back to the APAC worlds |
8856s | qualifier right here at the top 16 right |
8859s | now where you guys should share |
8860s | Excelsior pH with me is moon boy moon |
8862s | boy what was your favorite play over at |
8865s | the previous round |
8867s | my previous my best play is that six |
8870s | four six one Teemo right nothing nothing |
8873s | makes me happier than a huge Teemo but |
8876s | the best like the MVP play is definitely |
8878s | that tumble into the Hub onto that |
8880s | Solani to close off the game and that |
8881s | was a very close |
8883s | um best of three right there from that |
8885s | from those two players but ladies and |
8886s | gentlemen but we're moving straight |
8888s | right to the top 16 round right here and |
8892s | and you know this is getting tougher and |
8894s | tougher for every player and um you know |
8897s | it's just a gauntlet right now whoever |
8898s | and it's a single elimination one wrong |
8900s | move out you go and you know what what |
8903s | else is there to say but next up we have |
8905s | rostera going up against quad Hong B all |
8908s | the way from Vietnam and uh what do you |
8910s | think about this matchup you know I |
8911s | think about uh this matchup I haven't |
8913s | heard much about Quantum B but I have uh |
8916s | seen the diamond in the rough Terror |
8919s | right there and uh you can see that uh |
8921s | he is already uh been here over at uh |
8924s | ever since uh beta as well over creating |
8927s | some content and some guides and uh I've |
8930s | I've been personally held by the Guides |
8932s | of uh uh raft there right there and the |
8934s | Really uh great in terms of explanation |
8937s | in terms of Engagement with the |
8938s | community as well uh if I remember |
8940s | correctly he also casted uh some of our |
8942s | community tournaments as well so that's |
8944s | a good uh that we are having here having |
8947s | him here in the top 16. uh consistent |
8951s | placements as well like playoffs like I |
8953s | think a total of six or uh one two three |
8956s | four five at least so for raft area so |
8959s | it's already uh a good consistency from |
8962s | him but I want to see uh also from B I |
8965s | want to see what he's going to be |
8966s | bringing to the table considering it's |
8967s | very top 16 right yep I want to see what |
8970s | three decks each players is gonna be |
8972s | bringing right here so let's just take a |
8974s | look at the Decks that they are bringing |
8975s | and roughtera starting off with the |
8977s | Tristana Nar and uh Teemo followed up by |
8980s | a set comma and a Samira fist pretty |
8983s | straightforward kind of line up three |
8984s | good decks coming in for this tournament |
8986s | and what about quad Hong B Excel sword |
8988s | yeah it's gonna be a some mirror |
8991s | Pantheon this is |
8992s | and Teemo and the trio right here the |
8996s | Kaiser Garen and j4 deck now this is |
8999s | going to be a quite exciting both of |
9001s | them carrying the same uh Tristana deck |
9004s | and wrist on a variant like this channel |
9007s | variant but I want to see more of the |
9011s | karma set right here we haven't even |
9013s | casted a single Karma set deck today uh |
9016s | a blue boy so I want to see this happen |
9018s | as much as I want to see it happen I |
9021s | don't think it's going to be happening |
9022s | this round right like looking at quad |
9024s | zombies lineup like you don't really |
9026s | want to deal with Ionia yeah yeah the |
9028s | biggest weakness when it comes to units |
9030s | unit deck is Ionia and likely you know |
9033s | qualcombe is going to be banning the |
9034s | comma set and from rafera side I believe |
9037s | the band is definitely gonna be on the |
9039s | uh Pantheon cement us Samira so uh you |
9043s | know this way you don't really want to |
9044s | deal with the pantheon or there might be |
9045s | a possible ban on that the master attack |
9048s | as well so but instead of you know |
9050s | looking you know uh just predicting who |
9052s | what is going to get banned let's just |
9054s | take a look at the 40 cards for uh |
9056s | either one of the players |
9058s | and looking at the cards over right here |
9061s | from raft area over at the left at |
9063s | Tristana uh the Tristana Timo Nar deck |
9066s | and over at the mid you can see the |
9069s | karma Seth with a lot of removals over |
9070s | at the right you see the Samira slash |
9074s | Fizz now this is our like uh the usual |
9077s | air the usual decks you see but uh I I |
9080s | do agree with you man like the mids is a |
9082s | lot of removals that you can use uh just |
9084s | to make sure that you get to the point |
9086s | uh we're in um Karma will be double |
9089s | crocking some spells yeah right that's |
9091s | going to be the obvious Target and in |
9093s | terms of the uh in terms of the |
9095s | familiarity like uh the Tristana will be |
9099s | more familiar to you so it's unknown uh |
9102s | it's a known how do you say it's a known |
9104s | enemy to you so if you know it uh like a |
9107s | front front to back you will probably |
9109s | have a chance to like counter it with |
9112s | your very own deck so yeah yeah I mean I |
9114s | feel like you're right it might be the |
9116s | karma set that will be bad here for from |
9118s | raptor parasite |
9119s | yeah for sure let's just take a look at |
9121s | what quad Hong b 40 for uh you know Dex |
9124s | is actually made of the deck list of the |
9126s | three cards that they have and you know |
9128s | taking a look at it is fairly similar |
9130s | for the Tristana deck right but however |
9133s | you know the pantheon deck is something |
9135s | that we have yet to see in being played |
9136s | so far and as we said previously the |
9139s | flare coming in from Samira is going to |
9141s | be triggering those faded keywords |
9143s | pretty often in this deck |
9145s | here we are this is going to be quite |
9147s | exciting now for uh this match between |
9150s | Ralph Tara and guadal B and you know uh |
9153s | I'm I feel I want to see again the j4 |
9156s | deck uh I'll go against the uh the go |
9159s | against the Tristana deck so if he does |
9163s | keep that up uh if it's not bad by uh by |
9168s | raft era it's gonna be uh steamrolling |
9170s | him in that matchup so I feel that |
9173s | that's the one that's gonna be like a |
9175s | bad but over as you said a while ago |
9177s | Samira Pantheon can also be bad because |
9180s | in terms of power it can also uh go in |
9183s | and go ahead to head against these units |
9185s | and just uh keep on uh piling up the |
9188s | power as well so uh The Faded mechanic |
9192s | just keeps on it's just a gift that |
9194s | keeps on giving right uh even though you |
9196s | don't have a lot of units you have a lot |
9198s | of uh the big units that you can develop |
9200s | down the line uh with uh this deck so I |
9203s | mean uh two Targets |
9207s | this is a good strategy like if you want |
9211s | to go into a matchup as much as possible |
9213s | you would want to have like three |
9215s | targets |
9216s | right that's like you want to have to |
9219s | your uh your opponent to keep on |
9221s | guessing like these these all three are |
9225s | good like I I don't have anything to |
9227s | counter but that's not how our Pros work |
9229s | like they they do find a way to find a |
9232s | counter for each one of these like some |
9234s | there might be some text like a single |
9237s | card text that may uh push them over uh |
9240s | into winning |
9243s | yep for sure I believe the bands are in |
9245s | let's just take a look at which decks |
9246s | are banned |
9248s | and oh both the mirror deck is being |
9251s | bent out right there so we are gonna be |
9253s | seeing our Karma set in action for this |
9256s | round hopefully hopefully you get to see |
9257s | the comments at this round and it likely |
9259s | is going to be doing a lot of you know |
9261s | it's going to be working really well |
9263s | against the the master deck but I don't |
9265s | think it's gonna be working as well |
9266s | against the Tristana attack what do you |
9268s | think yeah yeah I feel I feel I feel the |
9271s | same way man like I feel Quantum V is |
9273s | going to go straight with the with the |
9275s | j4 deck uh from the get-go like I mean |
9278s | he feels that uh it's going to be the |
9281s | the Tristana deck is going to be started |
9282s | on like Karma set is um you know kind of |
9286s | a bit slow like it's a control like at |
9289s | the utmost that you would want to get to |
9291s | that point where you would steamroll |
9293s | your opponent like you would topple the |
9295s | uh your opponent but um I feel if it |
9299s | does go to Karma uh sorry Karma set |
9302s | versus uh Garen j4 and Kaiser I'm not |
9306s | sure about how that matchup is of a goal |
9309s | uh what do you think man yeah I'm I'm |
9311s | looking up at some stats right now right |
9313s | uh for comma set going up against |
9315s | Tristana it's about 34.86 win rate and |
9320s | that's like you know not good for a |
9322s | common set and against the Kaiser Garen |
9325s | is 34.8 as well so overall right it |
9329s | seems like the weakest deck in this out |
9331s | of this four deck is indeed the karma |
9333s | set and you know roughtera being a |
9335s | calculated person that he is is he going |
9338s | to be going into this matchup with the |
9340s | weakest deck first and get it out of the |
9342s | way |
9342s | or is he gonna be you know try to |
9345s | struggle a little bit and and you know |
9346s | finish it off with become a set so I'm |
9349s | not very sure how how what kind of game |
9351s | plan is Rock they're actually thinking |
9352s | and and and you know I I personally will |
9356s | start with the comma set yeah personally |
9359s | I would start with the karma set because |
9360s | I'm thinking okay I'm I possibly wanna |
9363s | get this out of the way yep and um I'm |
9366s | gonna be trying out with uh my most uh |
9369s | with my with my most you know coating |
9372s | code uh Power leg in terms of the uh The |
9374s | Meta or uh in terms of the the usability |
9377s | uh so |
9379s | um yeah I want to see this happen |
9382s | um especially with the first text for |
9383s | Quantum V still |
9385s | uh both of them will possibly go |
9387s | straight into uh j4 versus Karma said I |
9391s | wanna I wanna see it man like if they're |
9393s | already starting |
9397s | yep as you know the uh back end team is |
9400s | actually waiting for the game to get |
9402s | ready uh I I really want to see an |
9404s | opening round of the martial going up |
9405s | against Ionia right like this two |
9408s | regions literally |
9409s | um don't fit well with each other all |
9411s | the time it's always the either or and |
9415s | uh it's always a good clash and good |
9417s | matchup coming in to see these two uh |
9419s | region clashes especially in a |
9420s | tournament like this yes and then yeah I |
9423s | want to see like uh that tournament uh |
9425s | sorry red that match up happened and uh |
9429s | considering that uh like you've seen |
9430s | like uh the mafia be more unit driven |
9434s | and uh Ionia |
9436s | um not so unit driven like more reactive |
9439s | pieces and uh that's a that's like a |
9441s | huge setup waiting to happen like down |
9443s | the line you would want to to see that |
9445s | happen like as a spectator or a |
9447s | spectator I would want to see that |
9448s | happen as a Caster I would like to see I |
9451s | would like to talk about it happen as it |
9454s | happens like this is going to be such a |
9456s | show get getting like getting two eggs |
9459s | of the Spells you're going to be using |
9461s | that's uh that's a huge reward for you |
9463s | as a Karma set user like uh over at side |
9466s | of uh over at the side of the the j4 |
9470s | deck getting the getting to put out j4 |
9472s | asset like uh asset uh as you attack |
9475s | like try to Target and get the dominant |
9478s | dominate your opponent as you attack and |
9481s | just go on with that favorable trade |
9482s | that's also one thing to look out for so |
9485s | many I mean this is going to be uh quite |
9487s | exciting top 16 man these guys have both |
9491s | beat two guys in front of them and uh |
9494s | looking at the bracket I I see raptora |
9497s | uh beat out uh Falcon o12 and Vinnie and |
9501s | Quantum B beat outcome dong and uh |
9504s | Finance so now the game is starting |
9506s | let's get into the action |
9509s | so off we go ladies and gentlemen Hong B |
9512s | starting the game off with the Bando CD |
9515s | deck and it's gonna be Chris Stana as |
9517s | rough there is starting off with the |
9519s | karma set like yes that's what we said |
9521s | right get the weakest deck out of the |
9522s | way and that's what exactly rothera did |
9525s | and he have to start finding his early |
9527s | pieces things like you know Mystic shot |
9529s | high note uh Aftershock these are great |
9532s | pieces to remove key targets especially |
9534s | cards like Nar Teemo and Tristana |
9538s | there you go as you were talking about |
9540s | missing shot missing shot appears at |
9543s | third the Mulligan and now of course we |
9545s | see a coin uh that made that maybe uh |
9548s | used down the line right so that your |
9551s | favorite card is gonna be used right now |
9553s | move boy so we're gonna see that happen |
9555s | but of course I I I think a favorite is |
9559s | that a group shot that he picked |
9561s | oh yeah yeah okay fighters fighters okay |
9563s | yep a pie toss immediately taking out |
9566s | the acorn you know so not allowing |
9567s | roughterra to get any form of value you |
9570s | know the acorn is going to be |
9571s | discounting one card if it actually hits |
9573s | the Nexus and you know there's so much |
9575s | defensive cut that roughtera is actually |
9577s | holding right now and it's it's just |
9579s | looking good for him right he could just |
9581s | you know two he has four points of |
9583s | damage with with the high note and the |
9584s | Mystic shot he got six points of damage |
9586s | with the hex uh hex Liberator as well |
9589s | and that could fire off as soon as turn |
9591s | number four that's right and now if |
9594s | you're on ref theory side you won't even |
9595s | have to uh put down any units or uh |
9598s | uh as at the moment like you can just |
9600s | hold it off like save your mana and |
9603s | consider that he doesn't have any units |
9605s | to play with |
9606s | um he may still use a |
9609s | um a basic shot but he uh he chooses not |
9613s | to so maybe he has another planet head |
9616s | save it for uh elusives and now of |
9618s | course big professional is going to be |
9619s | put down with the coin there you go coin |
9622s | is going to be there and basic shot will |
9624s | probably go in to the Elusive and just |
9627s | prevent any um how they say this any a |
9630s | hungry owl cat Shenanigans coming out |
9633s | yup take the Commando out there's no |
9636s | Commando action coming in for court home |
9638s | B and just removing the ball completely |
9640s | against him and right here you know |
9642s | roughtera is comfortable right he got |
9644s | the ball he got a good open attack just |
9645s | do three damage to his to his Nexus and |
9648s | he could even heal up with the |
9650s | mixologist as well so you know and rough |
9653s | there is just going to be stalling right |
9654s | he got the units to block he got the |
9656s | healing going on as well he got the |
9658s | damage to remove he got the spells to |
9659s | remove the units from quad Hong B and |
9662s | the only thing that he have to be a |
9663s | little bit more worried about is that |
9665s | Mar or tristata because those three |
9667s | Health at the number of three health is |
9670s | a little bit off what roughtera is |
9671s | having in his hand right now |
9673s | yeah it's it's neat like a a |
9676s | um a good turn that's because mixologist |
9679s | right there and you put a good point |
9680s | like the Gnar is one unit that uh he |
9683s | will not be able to take care of and |
9685s | look at that block |
9687s | why though |
9690s | the second one okay second one okay all |
9693s | right all right I think that's uh that's |
9695s | this is disposable now right there uh he |
9697s | wanted just to get that uh that uh sorry |
9700s | that Pokey stick uh uh from that attack |
9704s | so yeah that's a that's a good trade I |
9708s | don't know man |
9709s | I mean you know roughtera could just |
9712s | take these three damage right there's no |
9713s | point blocking this now you know that |
9715s | there's a pokest thing in hand this |
9716s | block is definitely not going to go |
9717s | through and you know just take the three |
9719s | he'll heal it back up with mixologist |
9721s | lodges right play the set the next turn |
9723s | and take the knot out |
9726s | that's right yeah that's that's a |
9728s | possible way but the thing is that Nar |
9730s | is going to be leveling up if you know |
9732s | this if he actually deals one damage to |
9734s | to uh roughtera's uh Nexus so he got to |
9737s | be a little bit more calculative when it |
9738s | comes to that as well that's right and |
9740s | he didn't want to make that happen |
9741s | because of course he would also get the |
9744s | value from that mixologist uh putting in |
9746s | one coin and healing the uh the Nexus up |
9750s | to three up by three so you know this is |
9752s | like an upgraded version of our |
9754s | bartender before right yeah the three |
9756s | three uh with the just heals but now |
9758s | it's a three four and it also adds a |
9761s | coin there you go and the Gnar is going |
9763s | to be flipping into meganar and uh it's |
9766s | going to have five five a quick attack |
9768s | and overwhelm now this is oh look at |
9772s | that a set has been put down by a RAV |
9774s | Terra |
9776s | no that attack or the the |
9779s | uh the possible attack here coming from |
9781s | uh B is to just go on and uh use that um |
9786s | vulnerable mixologist and just use it as |
9789s | uh a human shield right you see you |
9792s | would want that to get out of get it out |
9794s | of the way as it is possible yep but |
9796s | however playing the set discern is a |
9799s | little bit |
9800s | um you know crashed and like you know it |
9802s | I don't think it's gonna be targeting |
9804s | the Dodge |
9805s | right the set is definitely going to be |
9807s | aiming for anything else yes it's going |
9809s | for the mayor right here and he could |
9811s | even go for a high note onto the dinar |
9814s | to actually take him out and this is |
9816s | where the puzzling signpost might be the |
9819s | crucial card for Quantum B to do it but |
9820s | instead playing the Tristana this turn |
9822s | and I believe this is going to be a KO |
9824s | on to that um that Gnar that is eyeing |
9828s | for yeah oh man enough there are just |
9832s | wants to uh make sure that that uh that |
9835s | Gnar is gonna be taken down and no no |
9838s | that's a good uh good uh challenge |
9840s | playing with uh the mayor uh being taken |
9842s | down because the mayor if you keep the |
9844s | mayor up it's going to be quite a |
9847s | problem right |
9848s | um and uh it's just gonna keep on |
9851s | turning out value of course with the the |
9854s | first multi-region unit uh playing uh |
9857s | you play gets across one less that |
9858s | Tristana is gonna be flipped oh man look |
9862s | at this |
9863s | a lot of damage coming in from the side |
9866s | of a Quantum B but still not a dead or |
9870s | not a how do you say it's not a dead end |
9872s | for a raft era as he still has some |
9874s | units to uh to block it with and he is |
9877s | and like three turns from his |
9880s | enlightened position up high note on to |
9883s | the Gnar trying to take him out and be |
9886s | allowed it to happen and it seems like |
9889s | you know we know what roughtera is |
9890s | trying to do right the hex The Liberator |
9892s | is definitely going to be going into |
9893s | that Tristana to check him out and Hua |
9897s | zombies saving it that that puzzling |
9899s | signpost is a big piece that he's trying |
9902s | to save |
9904s | just right like um he's uh gonna be |
9906s | using the hexag obliterator and this is |
9908s | going to be |
9909s | um a good play and disciples look at |
9913s | that it's gonna be bringing it back oh |
9915s | point oh there's gonna be an answer |
9918s | back as well oh wow amazing amazing coin |
9925s | tag out bringing the set back into his |
9927s | hand getting himself another coin and |
9929s | the set could still remove the Tristana |
9931s | the next turn he still gets the hex The |
9933s | Liberator back in his hand as well so |
9935s | it's still looking pretty comfortable |
9936s | for referral right he could still remove |
9938s | the tree starter with the set he could |
9940s | just hack celebrated it as well formula |
9942s | coming in yeah so that that's just value |
9945s | when it comes to uh everything and it's |
9948s | just drawing closer and closer into the |
9950s | comma that he needs at turn number 10 |
9951s | and if that happens you know it's just |
9954s | gonna be steam rolling into Quantum B |
9956s | until he runs out of gas |
9958s | that's right that's right and now you |
9959s | can see uh the tenor of a terror being |
9962s | summoned on the side of quantum B and uh |
9964s | that's right you can see you can |
9966s | challenge uh Proctor can definitely |
9968s | challenge the Tristana uh from the |
9970s | get-go but the oh what is he doing he's |
9972s | gonna be uh using an augmented clock |
9975s | wing oh let's see what he is going to be |
9978s | picking from this lot I'm thinking |
9983s | place your pets yeah definitely place |
9986s | your bets and he gets to oh man this is |
9990s | a very timely proc for a set set is |
9993s | gonna be attacking and it's not gonna be |
9995s | oh getting any damage oh and he gets |
9998s | that set from the draw amazing pick |
10002s | right there like we were thinking of |
10004s | something else but he goes in instead |
10006s | with a facebreaker |
10007s | a face breaker I believe you know it's |
10011s | crucial right it's crucial that you know |
10013s | what he could do with the facebreaker as |
10014s | well and instead of challenging the |
10017s | chistana he's going for the battle |
10018s | Gunner and this way you know that |
10020s | Tristana is still vulnerable to The hexa |
10022s | Liberator so |
10024s | um that's a really good calculator to |
10025s | play coming in from roughtera that's |
10027s | right and uh you know it just came back |
10030s | a while ago but it's gonna be also |
10032s | important for uh referral to just keep |
10035s | on removing the key units like the units |
10038s | with impact right that's important and |
10040s | now uh he went out right it used to be a |
10044s | total of 11 impact damage he's now down |
10047s | to eight and look at that targeted |
10050s | attack coming in from he needs to remove |
10053s | uh one more unit that will possibly ball |
10056s | him over the next year this just says |
10058s | okay next turn I'm going to be opening |
10060s | attack that's it and uh before you even |
10063s | reach enlightened the position |
10065s | uh yeah I I believe this king's court |
10068s | coming in from God help me right three |
10070s | men are open and you know price fight |
10073s | coming off the top as well so this is |
10074s | going to be easy to remove the set phase |
10077s | breaker could go and and just you know |
10079s | um stun two units and not allowing them |
10080s | to attack this turn and set could still |
10083s | you know potentially block something in |
10086s | return that's right I mean the open |
10089s | attack was a missed opportunity from the |
10091s | side of what don't be like he could have |
10093s | got in and attacked and uh we're gonna |
10095s | face unblockable damage uh with the |
10099s | three units like imagine if the 12-4 was |
10102s | blocked two four uh two four eight eight |
10106s | the damage is going to go in seven |
10107s | damage is gonna be a seven health for |
10109s | the Nexus is going to be uh possible |
10111s | place you can put down the uh maybe the |
10115s | the ship and then go in with the prize |
10117s | fight right so that would be also uh a |
10120s | play but yeah he goes in and no there is |
10124s | no no no play coming in from ref Tara oh |
10128s | there you go there's the obliterate okay |
10131s | but yeah I think um there's gonna be a |
10135s | prize fight that's gonna be coming in |
10138s | well I think like you know hacks other |
10141s | like hacks Liberator taking out the |
10143s | Tristana that's gonna be easy but I I |
10146s | think he should have stunned it right he |
10148s | should have used Breakers stunned two |
10149s | things and now it's not looking great |
10151s | for for after the the price fight is |
10154s | definitely gonna be looking like you |
10155s | know doing good for him formula coming |
10158s | in after shot into another formula is |
10160s | not looking good and hacks a liberator |
10162s | immediately going straight right to the |
10164s | Tristana and this is a huge amount of |
10167s | damage coming in two four eight eight |
10169s | plus four and that's what 12. |
10172s | and with this price fight |
10176s | oh yeah it's gonna be definitely a |
10179s | little right there oh my gosh man |
10182s | one two three two four and that's gonna |
10186s | be it that is the play of bottom behind |
10190s | game I do agree with you man like the |
10193s | face the Smasher like the face uh sorry |
10196s | face breaker yeah yeah I wanted to call |
10198s | this face Master but it looks like a |
10200s | smashed face but the brain it looks like |
10202s | a broken face instead like it could have |
10204s | stunned and created uh and created a |
10208s | more controllable play like stun two big |
10211s | units and that's gonna be it like uh |
10213s | that's gonna be your you know your |
10215s | answer right there to prevent uh extra |
10217s | damage from coming in so well |
10220s | um getting one point over at uh raft |
10224s | there right there and uh let's see um oh |
10228s | he raptor is going to be using the same |
10230s | deck uh over its next match |
10232s | yep I I think that's that's okay right I |
10235s | believe the deck that was banned was |
10236s | actually the master deck and uh right |
10239s | here we have like me to be facing the |
10240s | pantheon Samira and uh yeah you know |
10244s | keeping this hand you know just taking |
10246s | out the clock Wing save like take out |
10248s | the tag out have the set in hand and I |
10250s | think he's set and ready to go |
10253s | that's right Mystic shot |
10257s | so now of course uh oh okay so we're now |
10262s | gonna be having uh |
10264s | it's now fated right there The Saga |
10266s | Seeker is gonna be uh one of the years |
10269s | that you would want to develop as soon |
10270s | as possible but of course don't be |
10272s | already leading with one point another |
10275s | Saga Seeker may be put down but of |
10277s | course you have some equipment that can |
10279s | power up and that's gonna be the dark |
10281s | one of the darker equipments making it |
10282s | three three so still um if you keep on |
10286s | putting up uh making the the units |
10289s | bigger they would be outside of uh |
10291s | removal range so I feel that this will |
10294s | be a good block and Mystic shot I feel |
10298s | like Quantum we should have uh should |
10300s | have waited it out right |
10302s | it looks like a good attack right like |
10304s | at the same time it feels like you know |
10306s | he's betting on uh roughterra not uh |
10310s | it's actually not going to be |
10311s | sacrificing the a call but roughtera |
10313s | though having three mixologists in his |
10314s | head |
10315s | um you know he might have reconsidered |
10317s | should I have taken that tree damage |
10319s | there and then like is that is that a |
10321s | better answer |
10322s | yeah I mean I feel like um it could he |
10326s | could have gone into value from the the |
10327s | acorn right there but not black but not |
10329s | blocking with it |
10334s | is just to keep on removing the units |
10338s | right because he knows that they get big |
10340s | enough for I get to get the gate they |
10342s | get too big it will not be possible for |
10345s | him to just you know uh keep on blocking |
10347s | like they're just gonna keep on |
10349s | Surviving and then more units are gonna |
10351s | be coming and it's gonna be over uh he's |
10353s | gonna be overwhelmed |
10355s | uh and and something interesting that I |
10357s | know that rafter is trying to do is just |
10359s | limit quad Hong based unit right well |
10361s | just not allowing it to get as much |
10363s | faded uh trigger as much as possible and |
10366s | you know four Mana is gonna be a |
10368s | mixologist coming in getting himself a |
10369s | coin his head is not looking the best |
10371s | not much control option all he have is |
10373s | just coin generators at this point in |
10376s | time and uh he just have to survive you |
10378s | just have to survive a little bit longer |
10379s | try to find his set try to find um those |
10382s | removal pieces and try a way to deal |
10383s | with the uh Pantheon as soon as it lands |
10387s | right that's right now of course uh the |
10390s | the mixologist bringing them up to 19 is |
10393s | going to be a drawn out set but uh I |
10396s | don't think that the rotary is going to |
10398s | be using that as the moment maybe uh go |
10402s | on with the clock link there you go it |
10404s | goes on without the blockling he's gonna |
10406s | be |
10407s | yeah looks like the best one right here |
10409s | yeah getting a discount of that as well |
10412s | so that's pretty |
10414s | um you know valuable right like you you |
10416s | can't take them to account with three in |
10417s | Bedard palm and the pantheon immediately |
10420s | coming straight right down from B and |
10422s | yeah so The Penton is definitely gonna |
10423s | be the key Target that he wants to take |
10425s | up as fast as possible because once that |
10427s | Pantheon flips |
10428s | it's it's muscle man for days man |
10431s | yeah that's it Pantheon is right there |
10435s | is nearing a flipping condition and now |
10439s | um we can see Karma also being drawn out |
10442s | but of course let's not take out the |
10443s | fact that uh there are some answers |
10445s | maybe coming oh Yola with the spell |
10448s | shield so that's not gonna be stopped |
10450s | anytime soon all right |
10452s | look at that that's probably one of the |
10454s | best flip animations uh that I have seen |
10457s | man like uh but uh it doesn't make sense |
10459s | to how he got there |
10461s | so uh are you uh putting in the |
10465s | important pieces and look at that oh let |
10468s | me break it down for you man overwhelmed |
10470s | spell shield augment man there's a lot |
10475s | man there's a lot men oh man |
10478s | the amount of icons on top of like a |
10482s | Pantheon right now yeah it's just |
10484s | showing how many packs you have on his |
10486s | stomach it's like I'm Macho and like |
10488s | these are my muscles |
10489s | I'm gonna punch you with like tons of |
10492s | keywords what you gonna do friend yes |
10496s | it's like saying uh no this is |
10500s | macho Macho Man |
10502s | and look at this he's powering up also |
10505s | Eula right there like the four one not |
10508s | gonna be blocked anytime soon so this is |
10510s | how this is why |
10512s | um you saw raft there a while ago just |
10514s | remove as many use it as he can because |
10517s | he knows down the line he won't be able |
10519s | to remove that uh that uh big Pantheon |
10522s | right there especially uh imagine one of |
10525s | the units getting pumped up or getting |
10527s | uh powered up or protected by Yuna right |
10530s | so this is what he was afraid of uh and |
10534s | uh he won't be able to stop them anytime |
10536s | soon he will just keep on using the |
10539s | mixologist getting the coin and hoping |
10542s | that he will be able to reach turn 10 to |
10545s | the move forward with the shenanigans |
10547s | yeah I just have to survive just have to |
10549s | survive to turn 10 and hopefully the |
10552s | place your bets will find him something |
10554s | else of use that he's looking for but he |
10557s | have to stop this Pantheon right seven |
10559s | six is too much there's a reason why |
10561s | every single person don't want to deal |
10563s | with Pantheon deck irregardless of how |
10565s | Nerf or how buffed he is at any point in |
10568s | time this muscle man has all will always |
10570s | show his muscle at the right time and |
10572s | and it's just it's just scary |
10574s | yeah super scary like all of those |
10577s | keywords man oh man and also putting |
10580s | another gem like |
10582s | man |
10583s | I'm not all um like not a fan of putting |
10588s | all your eggs or all your eggs in one |
10590s | basket but in this case uh if the basket |
10593s | is Pantheon why not right |
10597s | he is well protected he is well |
10599s | protected right here |
10601s | um and um the way that um that the right |
10605s | there this is that if he does use a uh a |
10609s | concussion pump and a hex biterator that |
10611s | will be it he has nine exact Mana to |
10613s | make that happen yeah but harazi coming |
10616s | in and that's just you know not looking |
10619s | great for for rough Terror anymore |
10622s | um but this is a good swing right this |
10624s | is a very good swing coming in for Quad |
10625s | Hong B that's what you say the |
10627s | conclusive Palm into a tag out uh five |
10629s | meta tag out right could bounce |
10631s | depending on back up but that also means |
10633s | the pantheon gets a reset so is that |
10635s | what you're looking for |
10637s | oh man let's see oh |
10641s | oh man |
10644s | this is gonna it's gonna it's not gonna |
10645s | be the play or like yeah |
10648s | that's right I was thinking about |
10650s | explanator a while ago if it was six but |
10654s | you know |
10655s | no it's not gonna happen thank God this |
10657s | is gonna be the play right there but |
10659s | there's still gonna be a lot of units |
10661s | and it's gonna be just a recycle of what |
10664s | uh Banton is gonna get right you're |
10666s | gonna be getting another set of um you |
10669s | know uh another set of uh keywords but |
10672s | he went for another way so okay so that |
10676s | bad thing is just gonna be stunned still |
10677s | a lot of uh damage is gonna be coming in |
10679s | seven eight twelve sixteen all right |
10682s | seven oh wait sorry I forgot the uh the |
10686s | effect |
10688s | man okay okay so it's gonna be coming in |
10692s | six damage maybe the the best force of |
10694s | action here |
10697s | well I think you have to start to plan a |
10699s | plot right how to do as much damage onto |
10702s | the Horizon right just do three damage |
10704s | two the seven sevens and just remove the |
10707s | four one |
10708s | yeah all righty with uh the uh coming in |
10713s | from the dark and lodestone it was a |
10715s | very good play right there yeah that's |
10717s | why the um |
10719s | um the darkened weapons uh were are also |
10723s | useful because sometimes you can use |
10725s | them as a weapon sometimes you can use |
10726s | them as like you know as units yeah |
10728s | right |
10729s | that they're just flexible that way but |
10731s | it's not doesn't come with a Cause right |
10733s | because these units are expensive AF man |
10736s | like you get like uh nine cars you get |
10739s | an eight costs you get a five cost like |
10742s | um but also you can make that happen as |
10744s | well uh you get the value as well just |
10747s | with uh with the darking weapons so uh |
10750s | amazing that we get to see uh draft era |
10753s | get up to a total uh I'll get to a |
10756s | enlightened position |
10762s | he's got a flip you gotta hack the |
10764s | Liberator for 12. you got a cosmet uh |
10766s | The Reef for two right you got you got |
10769s | blockers you got another Karma to to |
10770s | support this camera if it ever goes down |
10772s | coin coming in as well and a set |
10776s | leveling up this turn it seems like |
10778s | right here roughtera is not dropping any |
10780s | sweat it's just gonna be going in strong |
10782s | and try to remove the Horizon out of the |
10784s | board this turn and and just limit what |
10787s | we could do |
10789s | yes and now of course uh Quantum B is |
10791s | thinking okay I might need to uh pump up |
10794s | this Horizon up to uh with uh outside of |
10799s | range right and he's going to be using |
10800s | the field Cascade to draw out some more |
10803s | cards but no it's not going to be |
10805s | helping him so this is gonna be uh a a a |
10809s | possible attack right because of the set |
10811s | coming down it's gonna be a free trade |
10814s | and I'm just gonna put on some more like |
10818s | it's gonna put on some more turns for |
10820s | raft era because what you're actually |
10823s | looking at is the show stopper right |
10825s | yeah show stopper I think why is it not |
10828s | going on to the panther yeah it should |
10829s | be going on to the pantheon just |
10831s | obliterate it do one to everything else |
10833s | and and he could still have a good |
10835s | opening at the seventh four instead of |
10837s | the harassi and and yeah it's it's solid |
10840s | at this point in time |
10843s | that you need |
10845s | show stopper like it goes to it on with |
10849s | the with the name right like the the |
10851s | show is literally stopped with this turn |
10854s | like you get to obliterate One champion |
10857s | and just deal a lot of damage like one |
10860s | uh a lot of damage over at the board |
10862s | with with the one damage for the other |
10866s | units that's race cars just got |
10868s | decimated right there man and yeah good |
10871s | place Droid |
10876s | just putting the harassi down to seven |
10879s | one so that you know whatever he |
10880s | supports is going to be bringing like |
10882s | it's going to be transformed to a seven |
10883s | one and and you know it might be a |
10885s | compor coming in kempor coming in for uh |
10888s | Hong B yeah with spell shoe as well but |
10891s | you know roughtera have the answer he |
10893s | got that uh those spells that is |
10895s | required to to close off this game and |
10897s | he's comfortable he's just you know |
10898s | close to |
10900s | um closing this game off the next few |
10902s | turns it might be Checkmate right here |
10904s | right that's right and then you know |
10906s | I've seen like um I've seen some units |
10909s | like before I it's it she who wonders |
10912s | yeah like I have that uh like a semi |
10916s | Champion animation camper the doubt |
10918s | seems to be uh another one that uh has |
10922s | been given some more love right and uh |
10925s | as we can see right here uh we are |
10927s | getting uh uh we're getting to that |
10929s | Tipping Point between these two so like |
10931s | one more turn it's gonna be it like |
10934s | we're we are seeing raptura remove as |
10937s | many units as he can during this turn |
10940s | there's gonna be uh some development as |
10942s | well into the weapon or camphor just |
10945s | removing that uh just removing that uh |
10949s | spell shield over at this side and now |
10952s | here we go a flip Karma this is not one |
10955s | you would like would want to see |
10961s | right so at this point in time any point |
10963s | of spell shoe any point of counter spell |
10965s | is not gonna be uh super effective |
10967s | especially when the karma is level up |
10969s | everything is going to be doubled at |
10971s | this point in time hexa Liberator he's |
10972s | gonna be dealing 12. concussive Palm |
10974s | it's gonna be starting you twice and |
10976s | creating two more units so it's like you |
10979s | know as long as the karma is flipped |
10980s | right there's nothing much that your |
10983s | opponent could do because it's just |
10984s | one-sided at this point in time you have |
10986s | to remove the karma fast but it's not |
10988s | gonna be easy task |
10989s | right you have to remove it as soon as |
10992s | possible and from what it looks like |
10994s | there may be uh there is the attack from |
10997s | what don't be just keeps on developing |
10999s | that camphor uh but he doesn't know what |
11002s | hap what is coming down from the side of |
11006s | rapera he has the hex biterator he has |
11010s | the choice of putting down that |
11012s | concussive bomb with 10 Mana to work |
11014s | with he will also summon two more three |
11017s | twos right there so this is gonna be uh |
11020s | wow it's all coming downhill right now |
11024s | for Quantum B because you know raft era |
11027s | has the choices has all the ingredients |
11031s | and there you go that's a surrender like |
11034s | that is the surrender that we were |
11037s | expecting especially when uh when ref |
11041s | Terrace armor flips you know |
11043s | sit yeah and you know it all pays it all |
11046s | pays out like we saw after remove one of |
11049s | them one by one it looked kind of fun |
11051s | you know iffy in a sense but it made |
11054s | sense if the Saga Seeker keeps on |
11055s | Surviving and keeps on getting pumped up |
11057s | it will not be a good uh it will not be |
11060s | the same story because he would just get |
11062s | steamrolled right there and then I mean |
11064s | Karma said it's kind of a Checkmate that |
11066s | you don't really want to spend too much |
11067s | time on it you know that you got a clock |
11069s | running and you don't really want to you |
11071s | know get time out especially in the |
11073s | situation like this so just you know |
11076s | Quantum B acknowledges with that and and |
11078s | just you know scoop it up go next and |
11080s | and hopefully the next round will be |
11082s | better because right here uh the Teemo |
11084s | deck is not the Tristana deck is not |
11086s | looking great against a phantom deck |
11088s | like that especially with big overwhelms |
11090s | units that quad home we have |
11092s | right and now going at uh this uh next |
11096s | round you know we can see some trades |
11098s | and possible trades between these two uh |
11101s | considering that the |
11103s | um the the the units of a Quantum B will |
11106s | be most most likely bigger than the |
11109s | units of roughtera and goes on with the |
11110s | Saga Seeker first and you have to |
11112s | develop that um as soon as possible turn |
11115s | to Rav Terra can uh put on put down a |
11118s | bundle uh Commando just to bring out |
11121s | another uh and hungry alcat like this is |
11124s | though when he's gonna be starting to |
11125s | develop uh his uh board like uh getting |
11128s | it wider but at the same time roughtera |
11130s | have to be a little bit more wary of |
11132s | those fated counters right because right |
11134s | here quad zombie is just starting to get |
11136s | those pieces ready and you have to |
11138s | remove that sagasika as fast as possible |
11141s | because you know it's definitely going |
11143s | to be you know putting a gem onto it as |
11145s | well so Samira coming in flare you know |
11147s | it's gonna be allowing that one one to |
11149s | be a 2-2 and just remove that Commando |
11152s | as like you know immediately so but |
11154s | however the heavy metal is a good piece |
11157s | that he is looking for to remove that |
11158s | Samira if he ever chooses to |
11160s | that's right that's a good choice like |
11162s | if you want to remove us a mirror the |
11164s | heavy metal would be the good option and |
11167s | of course you put in a good point the |
11168s | flare you can give Challenger to The |
11170s | Saga Seeker right there just to destroy |
11172s | that battle City Commando then prevent |
11174s | it from putting more uh more uh hungry |
11178s | owl cats right there and he does he's |
11181s | gonna be putting it down but it puts it |
11184s | in a Range where you you wouldn't want |
11186s | it to be right it's with with one man |
11189s | one Health it there's a lot of options |
11191s | for uh for ref Terra to remove it down |
11193s | the line there you go I'm saying it |
11196s | pythos yeah Python's going straight |
11199s | right to the uh Saga Seeker but I |
11202s | believe the pill Cascade is going to be |
11203s | you know or you know this got in touch |
11205s | will be able to give it back up and it's |
11207s | not going to be going down anytime soon |
11209s | and |
11210s | um roughtera actually have what two hour |
11212s | cats and one a Seedling and and you know |
11215s | that's gonna be buffing together with |
11216s | the grandfather Faye as well so |
11218s | granddaddy has his baby you know baby |
11220s | face a well in check and everyone is |
11223s | ready to get buffed and going for a big |
11225s | swing like they're getting uh their |
11228s | gifts of extra attack early even though |
11231s | it's not Christmas uh moon boy and this |
11234s | grandfather is a very giving right there |
11237s | in that sense right |
11239s | but uh still in uh in the gameplay we |
11241s | are looking at reftera try to develop |
11243s | his uh his board he's already up to |
11246s | three going back and forth but that's |
11249s | Saga Seeker just keeps on Surviving |
11251s | right he like uh he went down to one uh |
11255s | guy in touch just to make it just to |
11257s | heal it back and you can still just you |
11259s | know you can see the commitment towards |
11262s | these fated units because these are your |
11264s | uh your your your your soldiers so to |
11267s | speak like you have to keep them healthy |
11270s | you keep pumping them up and there's no |
11273s | way for your opponents to just remove |
11274s | them except for one cause one attack |
11276s | spells and this |
11278s | this looks like a a possible |
11281s | vulnerability |
11282s | but this also tells uh raftera that oh |
11285s | possibly he has one more card to pump up |
11288s | the uh The Saga Seeker to just make it |
11290s | survive like he's not gonna be doing |
11292s | this without without any uh plan inside |
11296s | for sure right and and at turn five and |
11299s | at the temple that quad home B is going |
11301s | it's pretty slow and and if rather could |
11304s | spot that out uh he could take advantage |
11306s | of that right he got the units in hand |
11307s | he got the eye of nagaka borrows for |
11309s | more draw power to actually Source |
11310s | himself more options moving forward also |
11313s | and he if he can take advantage of this |
11316s | right roughtera this is the opening that |
11318s | roughtera needs to actually |
11320s | um you know be faster be ahead of guatem |
11322s | Bio Naga was coming and drawing him two |
11324s | cards getting him two spawn as well |
11325s | Kings and that's a that that's a big one |
11328s | coming in like you know the the big boat |
11330s | that he is looking out for and and that |
11333s | might change uh coming in turn number |
11335s | seven |
11336s | no I'm thinking right now how many boats |
11338s | do we have in uh we have the king's |
11341s | court we have |
11343s | um we have the Leviathan |
11346s | um what else can you name some I was |
11348s | thinking like protect the uh there's the |
11352s | MF boat as well |
11355s | like uh you know this is uh I'm just |
11358s | thinking outside what other ships are |
11360s | already in uh Rune Terror right now |
11362s | because it's uh one of the uh one of the |
11366s | solid forces that they made use but of |
11368s | course there's gonna be on uh a Commando |
11371s | getting that attack and it's gonna be |
11373s | countered out |
11375s | by quad on me so this he knows that he |
11378s | has to remove these uh these units |
11381s | because uh they're these unit generating |
11383s | units are uh really uh you know really |
11386s | pesky if you don't remove them as soon |
11389s | as possible yep you're those yodels |
11391s | being what they are they are really |
11392s | pesky they come in swamps and just |
11394s | removing the command or just removing |
11396s | all this |
11397s | a little coming in that roughtera is |
11399s | going to have but the battle city mayor |
11400s | that's gonna bring him more dividends |
11402s | moving forward drag grandfather face |
11403s | good wandering shoes uh shoe Bearer is |
11406s | good as well but more grandfather Fame |
11408s | means more buff our cats moving forward |
11410s | and you know rough Terrace spotted it |
11413s | and it's just going in for this player |
11414s | and it's looking good Quantum B no |
11416s | Champion inside not much thing in his |
11418s | hand his hand looked pretty clunky as of |
11420s | right now |
11421s | um but after I have to capitalize right |
11423s | here |
11425s | will have to capitalize over at this |
11429s | tournament look at this Saga Seeker it's |
11432s | just key it just keeps on pumping up |
11434s | right the health |
11436s | um is you know very healthy Saga Seeker |
11439s | over at the side of me and he draws out |
11441s | another one |
11443s | so you know as you can see here um the |
11446s | the whole MVP of this game is not just |
11450s | Sega Seeker it's not just Pantheon right |
11452s | you can have Saga Seeker |
11455s | um any any faded units are really |
11457s | important also |
11459s | ayula right imagine you are just pumping |
11461s | it up with a spell shield that's just |
11463s | gonna be |
11464s | um one more layer of protection for The |
11466s | Saga Seekers so |
11469s | um rap therea knows that these big units |
11471s | have to be blocked and uh needs to knows |
11474s | that a raptora has a block because if he |
11477s | doesn't uh he's gonna get uh bogged down |
11479s | though from uh his uh the the health of |
11481s | his uh Nexus so it's gonna just be a |
11485s | back and forth between these two |
11487s | yep and rough there are right here |
11488s | immediately throwing down the king's |
11490s | court and you know that Kings caught |
11492s | only one unit can block can can deal |
11495s | with it right it's definitely gonna be |
11496s | that Saga sticker and this actually |
11498s | forces The Saga Seeker to |
11500s | um to deal with this king's court |
11504s | yeah I mean also like you can see like |
11507s | what will be just trying to put down |
11509s | another side of the Seeker maybe that's |
11510s | the Saga secret that's gonna be |
11511s | sacrificed right if he has the tools to |
11515s | develop that but uh look at this there |
11518s | is a prize fight going down |
11521s | and it's targeting The Saga Seeker are |
11524s | there pieces right here to oh there you |
11526s | go we have a two cost perilous pastry |
11529s | right there and beerusville oh nice |
11533s | Target right there with the wielder |
11536s | the king's court is down amazing Target |
11539s | right there for guatemal B uh |
11541s | yeah that's a good move coming in right |
11543s | the king like you know just taking out |
11544s | the king's court not allowing him to get |
11546s | any more value but roughterra have that |
11548s | pie in his hand and he could still throw |
11551s | it towards the The Saga seeker and just |
11553s | bringing the soccer Seeker to one Health |
11555s | and that actually |
11557s | um |
11557s | no don't really allow it to block like |
11560s | views as a blocker and and there's so |
11563s | many |
11563s | um utilities there after I could do with |
11565s | his hand so you know it's still looking |
11567s | good for ratera at this point in time |
11568s | just because Qualcomm B is kind of |
11570s | breaking at this point in time to start |
11571s | off the top deck and that is one thing |
11573s | that he is looking for |
11575s | yes Tristana is the way to go guys with |
11580s | the this restaurant is possibly going to |
11582s | be flipped and you can see |
11584s | um down the line that roughtera is still |
11588s | like he has a plan like putting down all |
11591s | those units down to one Health means |
11593s | that if and when he gets those uh single |
11597s | removal tools maybe a poke stick maybe a |
11600s | uh maybe a pastry any one of those you |
11605s | will be able to take them down and uh |
11607s | he's gonna be doing he's gonna be |
11609s | putting the down a white flame from the |
11611s | side of watong B last conceiveling let's |
11614s | see of course impact will be the best |
11616s | course of action here the powering up |
11618s | the Tristan as well so a lot of a lot of |
11621s | ammo coming out from the rough Terrace |
11623s | side right now moon boy a value right |
11626s | value rough Sarah is a very calculated |
11628s | person right and he's a very calculated |
11630s | player and when it comes to games like |
11633s | this he's always down to the value what |
11635s | is the most valuable play at this point |
11636s | in time what is the most optimal move |
11638s | that I could do that Saga Seeker is a |
11640s | little bit too big how can I deal with |
11642s | him at this point in time and just you |
11645s | know having so many units right here for |
11647s | impact damage going straight right to |
11648s | the Nexus no questions asked and this |
11651s | Force Quantum B to go for the block |
11652s | right you have to deal with the Saga |
11654s | Seeker he have that answer via the price |
11656s | fight into the pie show so you know you |
11659s | just have to expand Quantum B's um Mana |
11661s | as fast as possible so that he can't |
11663s | really react to this |
11665s | that's right and it goes in and Deals a |
11667s | total of four damages straight into the |
11669s | Nexus over at the side of guatembi now |
11673s | of course |
11675s | it's quite it's kind of a how do you say |
11677s | it's tempting to uh to just to use the |
11681s | price fight and use a a Pacer right |
11684s | there but uh you know right there is |
11685s | going to be a bit you know a bit |
11688s | cautious right now good boy uh and a pie |
11692s | toss top back guys oh my God like it |
11695s | pythons works so well with price fight |
11697s | right and if you know we actually go for |
11701s | the hill with the gem onto the Saga |
11703s | Seeker or even you know um yeah and and |
11706s | you know he could still remove that uh |
11708s | that Saga sticker as much as possible |
11710s | that this uh Horizon is is huge but it's |
11715s | not gonna be too much of a concern |
11716s | compared to what this Saga Seeker could |
11718s | do to roughtera yeah so Rossi we have |
11721s | seen this a while ago but now it's gonna |
11724s | be out now this is uh quite a turn right |
11728s | here guys so we see three faded units |
11731s | over at the side over at the one home b |
11734s | side so even my goal and uh use that |
11736s | orazi for a support uh for the Saga |
11739s | seeker and make it bigger like like it's |
11742s | gonna be getting that uh how they said |
11744s | it's getting that pump up uh feeling uh |
11748s | for our for a clock bones like we saw |
11751s | once uh a second Seeker go up quite a |
11753s | bit but uh the other one is gonna get |
11755s | the accelerated version of it and King |
11758s | scored is gonna go down this is a lot of |
11760s | options are being put down on the plate |
11762s | of raptor like you have the price fight |
11764s | you will have the pie toss you have uh |
11767s | the perilous pastry which is just slow |
11769s | right oh yeah like there's a lot of |
11772s | options for Raptor to just keep on |
11774s | dealing damage and also possibly |
11778s | I'm getting them in within |
11781s | um destruction range right this is going |
11782s | to be uh towards uh rap Terrace court |
11785s | right now |
11786s | yeah horazi 77 overwhelm is totally cool |
11790s | but the Saga Seeker 77 overwhelmed |
11792s | that's something dangerous that you |
11793s | don't want to deal with and um yeah but |
11796s | he got double priced fight he got the |
11797s | pie toss |
11798s | I think I think roughtera could survive |
11800s | this round is not going to be too |
11802s | difficult for him to deal with this as |
11803s | well and at the same time he gets to |
11805s | remove a harassi so it's a win-win |
11807s | situation for after |
11809s | that's right and he goes on with a combo |
11812s | right you have to go first with the uh |
11814s | pythons and then you go with the prize |
11815s | fight so that you have to go in with the |
11818s | order like sometimes like I I do forget |
11820s | the order of this happening like if you |
11823s | do go in with a prize fight first and |
11825s | then go with a python second what's |
11827s | gonna be happening is there's going to |
11828s | be one damage and then you're going to |
11830s | be bringing back the opponent down to |
11831s | one so it doesn't make sense so you have |
11834s | to do it correctly for it to work so |
11836s | again |
11837s | um now uh that seven uh seven uh second |
11842s | secret is gonna be surviving right there |
11843s | in the middle so it comes down to rough |
11846s | Terror now to choose how he's going to |
11847s | be doing with it and he's gonna be |
11849s | bringing back that uh sag 13 for a |
11853s | second Seeker okay |
11855s | oh that's a very smart move coming in |
11857s | right just just pull it back up and not |
11859s | allow it to to do too much and see what |
11862s | kind of reaction that caught Hornby have |
11863s | but the thing is that you know |
11866s | is still taking in so much damage right |
11868s | yeah he put him to one and he could |
11870s | still throw a pie at it yeah just throw |
11872s | a pie at it and just kill it or like |
11874s | group shot it right like just yeah hi |
11876s | for you |
11878s | like uh you know imagine like uh |
11881s | pie giving one damage I don't I wonder |
11884s | why why the pie deals one damage and the |
11886s | perilous pastry gets one damage also |
11891s | even though it has an anvil on it so |
11893s | like it's it's both the the like the |
11896s | drawing makes it uh more it should have |
11899s | two but yeah |
11901s | uh amazing uh take down right there |
11904s | coming in from RAV Terra spotting it and |
11907s | quad home B is running out of steam guys |
11910s | definitely running out of steam over the |
11913s | side of athera he can still develop and |
11916s | using a grand feather fade right there |
11918s | you can develop into four units right |
11921s | five minutes oh man this is gonna be it |
11923s | yeah oh no that Furious welder like |
11926s | that's something that you know we have |
11928s | and uh that could remove the Tristana |
11932s | if if you know Quantum be chooses to do |
11934s | so and but you know it looks it looks |
11936s | good for roughtera at this point in time |
11937s | right he got a really good swing he got |
11939s | the Bender Gunner he got like everything |
11941s | that he needs at this point in time it |
11942s | is a very good swing but you know that |
11945s | Furious welder that he top deck is |
11946s | really dangerous if rather don't respect |
11949s | it out and uh especially when Pantheon |
11952s | uh like what home B is actually trying |
11954s | to dig out right here is a Pantheon |
11957s | that's right that's right this is |
11959s | actually a good uh good there are good |
11962s | choice for uh Quantum B Furious Builder |
11964s | like you get to attack freely attack and |
11967s | it's fast too so you don't need uh if it |
11970s | does go on and uh try to attack you can |
11972s | remove it as soon as possible and block |
11974s | one of the other units right so that's |
11976s | gonna be a Telltale for here on the |
11978s | other side of the board you can see |
11980s | rafter not have any choice or not have |
11983s | any options to remove or to prevent this |
11986s | from happening |
11989s | with the Furious Builder you actually |
11991s | pulled it straight right out it actually |
11992s | show hand scenario for roughtera and |
11995s | right here Quantum beats out of hand |
11996s | there's nothing much that he could do |
11998s | and this might be the opening that |
11999s | roughtera is looking for he have to go |
12001s | for that big swing he have that price |
12003s | fight in his hand and he could |
12005s | potentially remove this Saga Seeker out |
12006s | of commission full swing coming in for |
12008s | court from roughtera what is what is uh |
12012s | answer or even reply to this move |
12015s | yes and yeah and you can also take it |
12017s | out right as you said like with a price |
12019s | fight that Saga Seeker is going to be |
12021s | out and no one is going to be surviving |
12023s | on the side of me so what does he draw |
12026s | what does he need to draw he needs to |
12027s | draw a Pantheon would need to have |
12030s | lifesteal just to bring him back on the |
12033s | board right so |
12034s | this is quite a conundrum for uh platon |
12039s | B let's see if it top takes a Pantheon |
12042s | he may have a chance to live over at the |
12045s | next turn if he doesn't draw it out then |
12048s | car |
12055s | not the car and you know knock on the |
12058s | car strikes at the end of the or even |
12060s | the end of the round strikes the |
12061s | opponent's strongest unit and this |
12063s | Vandal Gunner could not come out this |
12065s | turn yeah oh man so you have to take the |
12068s | five damage he have to take the trade on |
12070s | to |
12071s | um like you have to take the the |
12073s | grandfather fate out of commission as |
12074s | well but but the battle Garden might |
12077s | close off this game for him if karambi |
12079s | don't join to a Pantheon no it's not a |
12081s | fan I believe this is definitely going |
12083s | to be game over |
12085s | definitely the game over that you're |
12087s | looking for we I mean there's already a |
12090s | battle Gunner there's already the |
12092s | perilous pastry that's already four |
12093s | effective damage right there on the side |
12095s | of right there and he's going to be |
12097s | taking it slow right |
12102s | he just needs one more one more girl |
12104s | with the best |
12105s | better so again this is gonna be it this |
12108s | is gonna be the play |
12111s | that |
12112s | um that uh raptora has been going |
12115s | towards like he just fleshed it out he |
12119s | just fleshed it out man |
12122s | ah and there you have ladies and |
12124s | gentlemen the battle Gunner the bendo |
12126s | Gunner with impact 3 there's nothing |
12127s | much that Quantum B could do to face |
12129s | against this Gutter and just take this |
12130s | damage hate on and referral is moving |
12133s | straight right to the top eight ladies |
12136s | and gentlemen with a 2-1 Victory this is |
12138s | a neck to neck battle right here and |

12145s | yes amazing play coming in from uh raft |

12157s | set win over the second and they're |
12159s | going in with a pristana win over a |
12162s | third match |
12163s | Pantheon you know where Pantheon is he's |
12166s | just flying into space right now he's |
12168s | nowhere to be found that's why he wasn't |
12171s | in this matchup man uh The Saga Seeker |
12174s | was uh was not enough to pick up the |
12176s | slack oh boy |

12906s | surprise skills uh also some of you know |
12909s | calculated kills as well especially with |
12911s | the last match with a raft tarot right |
12914s | there but now we're gonna be getting |
12916s | getting into a match between two uh two |
12920s | Koreans right here it's gonna be mint |
12921s | soft cat versus Challengers kill I |
12924s | personally don't have any data uh from |
12927s | uh their previous uh winnings but yeah |
12930s | I'm uh I'm already excited as to how |
12933s | they're going to be playing it man yeah |
12935s | for sure like zero data coming in both |
12937s | of us are coming to cast this game blind |
12939s | but you know but as blind as we can get |
12942s | but at least we know a little bit of you |
12943s | know what kind of decks are they playing |
12945s | so ladies and Gentlemen let's just take |
12946s | a look at you know the six Decks that |
12948s | are on this matchup today |
12951s | oh wow okay yep yep |
12957s | yeah so first off we got uh I think the |
12959s | top side is mint soft Challenger skills |
12962s | right it's gonna be Jinx Samira going up |
12965s | against uh and with Tristana and also uh |
12969s | Shen j4 and Shen j4 that's something |
12972s | that we have seen previously and |
12973s | something that's gonna be very spicy for |
12976s | this weekend as well what about uh mints |
12978s | of cats yeah mint soft cat over at the |
12981s | bottom is going to be some mirror Fizz |
12983s | and we see Tristana |
12986s | right here and the echo Jinx man like |
12989s | these guys like only two uh two |
12993s | champions for their Dex man they don't |
12995s | carry like uh the the usual like uh we |
12998s | see Tristana uh Nar Teemo or something |
13002s | like that like they already stick to the |
13005s | uh to the are they the usual right here |
13007s | but over at the top like man we thought |
13010s | I think we saw a while ago like this |
13013s | Shan G4 this is gonna be quite exciting |
13016s | I want to see that again in action |
13018s | because it looks like it uh it's |
13020s | something that has been overlooked by |
13022s | some of our players yup especially when |
13024s | Tristana is so prominent in The Meta |
13026s | right now the master removal is just so |
13029s | strong right you just have to remove |
13030s | those small yodels and just just take |
13032s | them out of um commission before they |
13034s | actually Stacks up and then um you know |
13037s | comes in with interest so you know just |
13039s | really remove this this small units out |
13041s | of the way and and that's what the |
13043s | master is good is good at doing and we |
13045s | don't stack together with Shen with |
13047s | those various Synergy going on as well |
13049s | you got a really solid deck in this meta |
13052s | so what does that mean um boy does it |
13054s | mean that this will possibly have a |
13055s | Target uh for uh for our players right |
13059s | now the the j4 Shen and over at the |
13062s | other side I feel that the uh Samira |
13065s | fist must be removed as well so they |
13067s | those are possible targets for me what |
13069s | do you think uh from your side I think |
13071s | it's it's pretty fair like what you you |
13073s | mentioned is pretty fair but with uh |
13075s | yeah like you know the the master attack |
13077s | is just too counter against the opponent |
13080s | and oh I believe this is bad yeah and |
13082s | this is the mirror yeah that's what you |
13083s | said both this both of these decks are |
13085s | bad 100 hit rate Excelsior we just got |
13089s | it yeah a while ago we're not hitting |
13092s | the right moments like but now okay it |
13094s | makes sense uh if you go with us a |
13096s | mirror Jinx it's gonna be fast as well |
13099s | but uh it's not gonna be uh it's gonna |
13102s | be fast a bit I feel it's gonna be |
13104s | faster than the echo Jinx apparent right |
13106s | here so uh Echo James can go fast with |
13109s | the borders uh just go to thin it out |
13112s | but uh it's all it mostly depends if I I |
13116s | feel it on Jinx interpreting I'm sorry |
13118s | on Echo inter predict right so so that's |
13121s | gonna be uh a downside right there yeah |
13124s | I mean it's it's speed right at this |
13126s | point in time what kind of you're |
13128s | talking about both chains right it's |
13130s | down to speed right that's Jinx uh |
13132s | Samira likely is going to be running a |
13134s | lot of like one course unit and lots of |
13135s | burn and just going straight out aggro |
13137s | right like old school aggro and just as |
13139s | just Zone use out as fast as possible |
13141s | and if |
13142s | um if the echo Jinx could find that this |
13145s | gate border as fast as possible to act |
13148s | as a really good one tree Defender |
13150s | um that could actually put themselves |
13152s | back up to speed as well to actually |
13154s | keep up to the game's Tempo so these two |
13156s | Jinx that will be the deciding factor of |
13158s | this best of three and whoever you know |
13160s | is gonna be leading with the Jinx that |
13163s | is going to be |
13164s | um winning this whole round that's right |
13166s | that's right and now of course if both |
13168s | of them go with the Tristana deck so |
13170s | that's going to be interesting because |
13171s | you you know it all comes down to how |
13174s | you draw and how you develop your board |
13176s | like they're gonna go head Toe to Toe |
13178s | with their uh with their decks and |
13180s | whoever gets the uh gets a flip the |
13184s | Tristana first and get get out the |
13186s | Kingsport will be able to get that win I |
13190s | feel that that's the advance right here |
13191s | because they're gonna go butt heads |
13193s | where they're uh we're gonna see oh wait |
13196s | the change |
13200s | okay the story has changed guys it's |
13204s | gonna be Samira fish and Tristana this |
13207s | is these are uh heavy uh unit unit heavy |
13211s | decks we're seeing right now wow amazing |
13214s | okay yeah yeah but I think like based |
13217s | off statistics uh it seems in my opinion |
13221s | I think |
13222s | um |
13223s | Samira Jinx might have the upper hand |
13225s | against the Samira fist |
13227s | right as long as it could be a little |
13229s | bit faster and just have his early drops |
13231s | early like he could still potentially |
13233s | remove this mirror face out of this as |
13235s | well so those are good potentials |
13238s | yeah I do agree with you like because if |
13240s | you are some weird things that means you |
13242s | like mostly focus on face right so |
13245s | mostly focus on Nexus that uh I I I feel |
13250s | that the other the other band could have |
13253s | been better right that would have been |
13255s | yeah yeah it would have been more |
13257s | sensible uh in terms of these uh those |
13259s | of the play so but yeah let's see if |
13261s | that's gonna be the case uh between the |
13263s | two considering that they're still |
13265s | preparing and you know I I I'm kind of |
13268s | curious I have you played like uh the |
13271s | the the Jinx oh sorry the Jinx Samira |
13273s | version uh as of the moment how does it |
13276s | fair with the previous iterations of |
13279s | agradex uh moon boy well it's it's |
13282s | straightforward right it's just discard |
13284s | mechanic because then like urchin you |
13286s | got reborn grenadia and you got the |
13288s | early fourth shift if you want to get |
13290s | your your Spellman are going as well |
13291s | like most of the curve is within like |
13294s | you know one to two Mana |
13296s | yeah and then you got your augmented |
13298s | experimental to experimental actually uh |
13301s | level objects as well so if you once you |
13303s | get your Jinx down the key piece is |
13305s | definitely Jinx right you get to clear |
13307s | up your head and Jinx level up and you |
13309s | get your refuel engine going as well and |
13312s | with those Super Rocket going forward |
13313s | and you know that's where you get all |
13315s | the value and you just win and yeah so |
13318s | basically that's what you're gonna do |
13319s | and if he could you know continue to |
13321s | keep up the speed the Samira face might |
13324s | not be a good challenge against the Jing |
13326s | stack but the bundle City that might be |
13330s | it might be able to hold off the Jinx |
13331s | like a little bit more but once the |
13333s | rocket starts flying um the the Autos |
13336s | might might suffer a little bit more |
13338s | yeah the the super mega Death rocket is |
13340s | going to be one thing that you cannot |
13342s | prevent especially with the chinx is |
13344s | already flipped like we're dealing three |
13346s | to the Nexus and then one towards uh the |
13349s | opponents right there on the board like |
13350s | I I feel I feel the it uh it was it was |
13354s | Nerf right it |
13356s | door now now it was three to the Nexus |
13359s | and uh of course one Health uh one |
13361s | damage towards everyone at the board but |
13363s | still a bit powerful considering that |
13366s | the whole flip condition of uh of uh |
13369s | Jinx is it's easy if you do get those |
13373s | discard portions right uh but yeah the |
13376s | augmented experimenter is the key right |
13379s | there because all it it just uh empties |
13381s | out the whole deck while dealing free |
13382s | damage to uh one of your uh opponents uh |
13386s | units so |
13388s | man I feel that there's going to be a |
13391s | Tristana mirror right now it's we start |
13393s | with that and then we uh we like uh go |
13396s | and try to fill it out with the other |
13398s | Samira decks but yeah so be reverse man |
13401s | it's getting it's getting wider and |
13404s | wider |
13405s | yeah like there's so many variations |
13406s | when it comes to Samira right you see it |
13408s | with this you see it with Jinx we saw it |
13410s | with a Pantheon we see it with Varys as |
13413s | well and there's even variation with |
13415s | Canon so there's so many |
13418s | um different Samira variations just |
13420s | because this card is too flexible it's |
13421s | like the new uh twist of fate let's just |
13423s | put it as that yeah yeah you know it it |
13425s | goes in a sense like everybody wants to |
13427s | get with some error right like yeah uh |
13429s | like when it wants to partnered with |
13430s | Samira over the different regions like |
13433s | uh she's kind of the Ambassador dress to |
13435s | everyone like all the other ridges right |
13437s | there that's how good they made it right |
13440s | uh let's go start with the match I think |
13443s | did I hear it correctly oh there you go |
13446s | oh wow |
13448s | so off we go ladies and gentlemen I |
13450s | believe this is a uh the massage deck on |
13453s | the top side and that's going to be the |
13455s | Sham deck it's not exactly bent out I |
13457s | guess so uh yeah on the bottom side it's |
13459s | gonna be Tristana and looking at this |
13462s | you know comparison right here I believe |
13463s | that the master I have the master that |
13465s | have the upper hand in this matchup |
13467s | yes and oh wait well this wasn't bad |
13471s | so this means this means that this deck |
13473s | wasn't bad okay so uh just clarify that |
13476s | uh Jarvan deck was uh it's going to be |
13479s | used over at the top |
13481s | and oh over at the bottom it's going to |
13485s | be the Tristana uh Tristana deck that uh |
13488s | that they are going to be using now of |
13490s | course the bottom is going to be a bit |
13491s | soft cat over at the top is calendar |
13493s | skill so first attack with the band of |
13496s | Commander we're gonna be getting the |
13497s | hungry owl cat gonna be drawn out |
13502s | yep so there you have you know that that |
13503s | uh Badger bear coming down on turn |
13506s | number three just ready and that means |
13508s | that you know the Commando will be able |
13510s | to be blocked as well so I mean it's |
13512s | looking great for um the demacia player |
13514s | on the top side and yeah if this goes on |
13517s | uh with the Shen in his hand and with |
13520s | the with Javan the third in his hand as |
13523s | well uh that that might be able to you |
13525s | know allow him to springboard in this |
13527s | matchup so it is looking really good for |
13530s | the Nebraska player for for so far |
13532s | track looking uh very good for uh |
13536s | Challenger skill right there and now |
13538s | again that's what we've been missing a |
13540s | while ago the the blocking Badger bear |
13543s | the uh the sharpside personified and now |
13546s | of course over at the side of uh uh |
13549s | midsoft Cathy will be putting down a |
13552s | hungry owl cat right so I mean |
13556s | um you know I kind of take it back that |
13558s | the the animal names are not in the |
13562s | metal right now if it's in the mid-soft |
13563s | cap it's right here at top eight right |
13566s | it's an animal name although it's an |
13569s | it's a it's in the Korean language so |
13572s | amazing as we get to uh to spot it right |
13575s | there |
13576s | yeah when Challenger skill like that's a |
13578s | really interesting name coming forward |
13579s | as well right you got your name being |
13581s | called Challenger skill but right here |
13582s | means of cat you know he has the temple |
13585s | ready he got for uh Forest to two units |
13587s | right here on the board as well and that |
13589s | is what the yodel decks is all about you |
13591s | want the tempo you want to have more |
13593s | units compared to your opponent and |
13594s | that's where all the value trade is |
13596s | going to happen but however The Shins |
13598s | The Shen deck is all about you know |
13600s | um interesting traits moving forward as |
13602s | well so we're standing United in his |
13604s | hand or even like you know Stan United |
13605s | uh that could potentially give him some |
13608s | very favorite favorable trade especially |
13610s | uh in in this combat phase that he's |
13612s | gonna push in |
13614s | that's right instead United that really |
13616s | has a good advantage in surprising your |
13618s | opponent as well considering that it's a |
13620s | bird spell and you would want to like |
13623s | top of the favor towards your side as |
13625s | well and you know |
13627s | I was thinking about warships a while |
13629s | ago and since I'm seeing I'm seeing a |
13631s | lot of the combat cook and I didn't |
13633s | notice that it was already rotated out |
13635s | that's why he came back as a combat cook |
13638s | I don't know right I am no longer a war |
13641s | Chef I am a compactor |
13643s | it's the same thing guys he cooks yes |
13651s | I use my pen as a weapon yeah now I give |
13654s | my pen to my friend as weapon yes that's |
13657s | right |
13658s | and look at this uh mint soft wait |
13660s | Challenger skill is going to be uh going |
13663s | in with the attack right now with the |
13665s | Shen bed the blocking Badger bear and |
13668s | the 3-1 unit as well now of course uh |
13671s | yeah this is gonna be |
13673s | um quite uh targeted approach and you |
13677s | can see the four one uh hungry alcat uh |
13680s | getting to challenge the uh the the shin |
13683s | right there and the pastry |
13685s | yeah or rather the pie five going into |
13689s | the face of shen let's see if this is |
13692s | going to be removed oh wow it's going |
13693s | down |
13695s | yeah so I think like you know he's fine |
13697s | right he's okay with the Shen going down |
13699s | he has he have like two more shins in |
13702s | his hand so it's okay to let the shank |
13704s | go and not show too much um to your |
13707s | opponent like this way you know he's a |
13708s | little bit more conservative with what |
13710s | we have and and at the same time right |
13712s | he's still reserving his resources so |
13714s | that his opponent couldn't get a read on |
13716s | his hand as well you know he might say |
13718s | that's on Shen's bright right there |
13720s | because there are two more two more |
13722s | chance right there on his hand but of |
13723s | course the the perilous pastry is gonna |
13725s | be uh uh taking down the three one but |
13729s | the barriers are going to go in and |
13732s | protect that G1 right there but this is |
13736s | going to be another gen surprise |
13738s | surprise it didn't go anywhere I'm back |
13741s | yeah being like the ninja that he is |
13744s | right yeah so he's like poof I'm back |
13746s | more shoes I'm back and I'm back with |
13749s | like more shoes on my friends and yeah |
13751s | so it's just looking great for for uh |
13754s | the master player the champ player right |
13755s | here like you know and this actually did |
13758s | not do not allow his opponent to go for |
13760s | any form of attack because it's just |
13763s | gonna be looking it's just gonna look |
13764s | bad at this point in time that's right |
13767s | that's right and now it's Tristana over |
13770s | at the side of a mid-soft cat it's gonna |
13773s | be |
13774s | you know I'm kind of underwhelming you |
13776s | would want the Tristana to uh go out |
13778s | like a veggie flip but this is going to |
13781s | be kind of a flex over the side of mint |
13783s | soft cat uh you know I have all these |
13785s | units and I'm gonna end route I'm not |
13788s | sure but it's most likely going to be N |
13790s | brown because it's going to be |
13791s | unfavorable trades right there |
13793s | yeah I don't think this is a good attack |
13795s | coming in for uh for a mean soft cat |
13798s | right and |
13800s | and I think uh the the single combat |
13803s | might be what uh like the challenges |
13806s | abilities it might want to do right just |
13809s | try to take out the the uh the Tristana |
13812s | and just not allow it to to get any |
13814s | point of value at this point in time |
13816s | that's right that's right so let's see |
13818s | oh there you go |
13820s | that was like that was a good play |
13822s | coming in from Challenger skill because |
13823s | you see like I have all these um |
13826s | barriers right here I'm gonna be you |
13828s | know I'm gonna be blocking you and |
13829s | you're not gonna get uh the favor uh |
13832s | from your side and um yeah this is gonna |
13835s | be uh quite exciting because you can see |
13838s | that uh both of these guys are |
13840s | developing a challenger skill it's just |
13843s | getting good trades as well he just he's |
13845s | also put down the uh the blocking Badger |
13848s | bear there just to prevent the the |
13850s | outcasts from developing secret |
13852s | protector is going to be coming down and |
13854s | there's going to be another barrier you |
13856s | know this is going to be a flip for a |
13858s | Shen right now I think he is one barrier |
13860s | I'll flip he just needs to put the |
13863s | barrier to the blocking merger bear or |
13866s | protector right there this is not a flip |
13869s | man this is a party right this is a |
13871s | barrier party everyone's gonna be have |
13873s | barrier and whoever has barrier have |
13875s | double strike like this is just value |
13877s | coming in for this channel player and he |
13879s | could just block the uh just you know |
13881s | give the 86h barrier plus double strike |
13884s | there's nothing much that the opponent |
13886s | could do a price fight is the best that |
13888s | they could do to actually remove the |
13890s | barrier Kings Court coming down as well |
13892s | so you know it's a battle of two boats |
13893s | right here and the price flight is |
13895s | definitely gonna be the card to break |
13897s | the barriers that um that he desires |
13900s | yeah and what's good about this is that |
13902s | the sacred protector also gives the |
13904s | double attack right so that means |
13907s | there's going to be double attack on |
13909s | Shan double attack and three one right |
13911s | there in the sacred protector uh if he |
13913s | puts it on second protector sacred |
13914s | protector is going to be going with a |
13916s | double attack |
13917s | um you know like a double attack party |
13920s | as well right so all of these guys are |
13922s | going to be coming in price fight is |
13924s | gonna be removing that barrier so some |
13927s | of them are going to uh be vulnerable uh |
13930s | with this attack but Shen look at that |
13932s | flip oh my gosh amazing it's been a |
13936s | while since I if I since I've seen Shen |
13938s | flip but uh this is a flipping |
13941s | uh flipping uh flipping uh good a chance |
13945s | to see him over at the top eight right |
13947s | now moon boy yeah gone with the days |
13950s | right like we've seen Shen and he like |
13952s | he was so dominant in the metaphor a |
13954s | period of time and then he got like |
13956s | nerfed and he's out and recently like |
13959s | you know just because of this patch Shen |
13960s | is back in the action right here and I'm |
13963s | just glad I'm just happy to see this man |
13965s | doing his thing like you know we we have |
13968s | seen Kaiser as the as the head of the |
13970s | martial right now but Shen might be the |
13972s | one taking over Kaiser again |
13974s | yeah and you know why uh why you can see |
13977s | Challenger skill using this attack uh |
13979s | even though there he knows that there's |
13981s | a prize fight because he knows that |
13983s | there is a single combat the team may |
13985s | use to remove the the one that is |
13987s | activating the prize by the prize fight |
13989s | little does he know that there is |
13991s | another prize fight on hand |
13993s | uh coming in on the side of the soft cat |
13996s | so oh this is gonna be a battle of |
13999s | combat tricks right now oh boy yeah and |
14002s | it seems like the um Tristana player |
14004s | have the advantage Right double price |
14006s | fight is what's gonna pick him on top |
14007s | and if you know this um the the sacred |
14012s | protector would go down in this matchup |
14014s | it's not gonna be looking great for uh |
14017s | Champions ability |
14020s | so this is if it goes down there's no |
14023s | there's gonna be no double attacks again |
14025s | because you know the circuit protector |
14027s | has to be there for the double attack to |
14029s | be activated it's very important to have |
14031s | it and now |
14034s | um |
14035s | even though it goes down it's still |
14037s | going to be favorable trades all around |
14038s | right there's the barriers from the |
14040s | units that uh uh Challenger skill has |
14043s | will protect it from getting removed and |
14045s | again still going to be Advantage so |
14049s | challenge your skill what are you going |
14050s | to do are you going to use the uh the |
14053s | combat uh single combat right now oh no |
14056s | he's not gonna be using it he's gonna be |
14058s | uh saving it for another day and here we |
14062s | go oh that's an interesting move right |
14064s | there though I I personally I would just |
14067s | go for the uh Champions Champion skill |
14069s | go for the uh single combat and just |
14072s | take out the the king's court right just |
14075s | not allowing it to survive because the |
14077s | bash is just a little bit too |
14079s | um valuable and you know you don't |
14081s | really want your opponent to have more |
14083s | uh price fight and that's not what you |
14085s | want to see |
14087s | yeah I was thinking oh okay uh kind of a |
14090s | delayed uh the lake uh single combat and |
14094s | he targets the Tristana so I feel that |
14097s | the Challenger skill uh finds it uh to |
14101s | have more value and there's gonna be a |
14103s | prize fight right there to make sure |
14106s | that there's gonna be a trade-off okay |
14108s | one down with a brush and if I if I |
14112s | remember correctly right you need at |
14114s | least three attack |
14125s | the health equivalent of yourself |
14128s | yep she started coming straight right |
14130s | down of this and having a price fight in |
14132s | his possession right here and you know I |
14134s | don't think there's much that |
14136s | um Champion skill could do right uh j3 |
14139s | might be the might be the answer that he |
14142s | is he's looking for I find a j4 and get |
14144s | the uh King's Court out of the way and |
14147s | at the same time you know this Tristana |
14149s | is really scary especially with you know |
14151s | more and more price fight going into |
14153s | this hand just because it's just |
14154s | dropping more units yes j3 is indeed the |
14158s | answer and look at this a tune getting |
14161s | in to another equipment and flipping |
14165s | that Tristana |
14167s | is gonna have one impact it's gonna be |
14171s | powered up for any uh any additional but |
14174s | of course looking at the side of mint |
14176s | soft cat yes bundle Vandal Gunners over |
14179s | at his side double price fight for his |
14181s | you so |
14183s | I'm not sure if he's gonna be attacked |
14185s | if he attacks it's going to be favorable |
14187s | but there's still a lot of Mana that can |
14190s | be used from the side of Challenger |
14191s | skill for for use now over at uh we can |
14195s | see it but uh midsoft cat probably is |
14198s | taking into account that uh or the one |
14200s | single content has been used |
14203s | um we saw moral support being used this |
14205s | is our reports that can be used so uh |
14208s | it's kind of a iffy for him to get into |
14211s | the attack right now |
14212s | yep the thing though is that you know um |
14215s | Challenger skill has only nine Mana |
14218s | right and there's only one thing that he |
14220s | could do out of these four Cuts so he |
14222s | have to really plan out and understand |
14224s | what is the most optimal way to cast one |
14228s | spell for this turn for me to maximize |
14230s | everything that I've got right |
14232s | everything is good in his hand right now |
14233s | it's then United allow him to protect |
14235s | the Shen and this three one repos |
14237s | protect the Shadow and and the um three |
14240s | one as well j3 gets you a j4 for next |
14243s | turn so there's so many options that he |
14245s | could do this turn that you know that |
14247s | could potentially allow him to win this |
14249s | game so yeah you have to think it |
14251s | through really clearly what is he gonna |
14253s | do to to have the upper hand what your |
14256s | opponent have because the opponent you |
14257s | know having three Mana there's so much |
14259s | more options with two price wide in hand |
14261s | that's right and you know if he just |
14263s | keeps on summoning or a low-cost units |
14265s | price points are going to be coming uh |
14268s | left and right like this is basically |
14270s | free |
14272s | um free way a free way to get your |
14273s | opponent down to one that's why uh |
14276s | that's why I said like price fight has |
14278s | to be one of the best cards in legendary |
14281s | right now like uh you're getting all the |
14283s | value |
14285s | um with minimal punishment right that's |
14287s | it's so good |
14291s | yeah and there we have you know the |
14292s | price fight being right in as well bash |
14294s | on the Tristana that means you know no |
14297s | one is going to be blocking that she's |
14299s | not able to block the Tristana right now |
14301s | No One's Gonna block the king cause |
14302s | right here as well so it's gonna be you |
14305s | know easy uh what is this 13 damage |
14307s | moving forward signing coming in that's |
14309s | still unable to block the best unit this |
14312s | might be little coming in from um from |
14315s | Minecraft cat means of cat yes and he |
14318s | can only block with the three five right |
14320s | there but it's still going to be a lot |
14322s | of damage that's going to be coming in |
14324s | man so oh |
14325s | oh wow okay uh this is gonna be quite |
14329s | exciting what how the hell does he do |
14331s | this he does he fit down and he knows |
14333s | that the man is only three so maybe a |
14336s | single combat can be used maybe he has |
14338s | that four Mana is already out of the |
14340s | table standing Knight is not going to be |
14341s | used reports no repos because there's |
14343s | only three Mana |
14345s | now this is gonna be a game-changing |
14348s | decision for midsoft cat right now and |
14350s | he instead goes in and puts him some |
14353s | more attack over at the king's court |
14358s | this is just saying I'm gonna be |
14360s | attacking right now and what will he do |
14362s | to stop me yep and there we have the |
14364s | full swing coming in I think and it's |
14367s | basically challenging challenge of skill |
14369s | right do you have those removal spells |
14371s | that you have if you have it you have it |
14373s | if you don't then I'm just gonna do 10 |
14375s | damage to you this turn and that is a |
14377s | lot of damage just literally 50 of what |
14379s | he's holding right here and just |
14381s | bringing the score down to 99. it's just |
14384s | tight |
14385s | tight tight |
14387s | this is going to be uh up to 99 uh go to |
14391s | equal footing between the two but over |
14394s | at the side of uh Challenger skill oh |
14397s | he's throwing down his uh shed okay |
14401s | so this is uh quite a development um he |
14404s | if he puts down j3 or bad Badger bear |
14407s | next turn |
14409s | I think you know he is really at the |
14413s | back pedal right now the battle Gunners |
14414s | is going to be coming down next turn |
14416s | it's going to be there's gonna be |
14417s | another chance uh uh for uh developing |
14421s | uh Tristana with more impact also you |
14424s | have the the fish right you can slap |
14427s | that fish over at one of the other units |
14429s | and just uh deal uh free damage |
14433s | right |
14435s | I don't think that's a fish slab right |
14436s | that's the overwhelmed weapon so yeah |
14439s | wait is it is it yeah |
14441s | oh yeah okay I was looking at the fish |
14444s | fight it looks like a fish fight right |
14445s | sorry sorry man fish fight is uh it's |
14447s | demacia but yeah I mean yeah that's the |
14450s | weapon right there oh man I got kind of |
14452s | confused it's |
14454s | it's tilted the other way |
14456s | so I think now the good play right here |
14458s | right for for Challenger skill is like |
14460s | we're gonna be Shen or even the major |
14462s | bearing to shed and try to remove the |
14464s | Tristana you want to stand out of the |
14466s | way but you know immediately that you |
14468s | start is at 10 4 right now and it seems |
14470s | a little bit more difficult to deal with |
14472s | or even to remove it and the broad Wing |
14475s | is just useless at this point in time |
14476s | pretty useless though |
14478s | yeah I mean I feel that the uh he's |
14480s | gonna be using the Shen towards the |
14482s | broad wing and then uh just deal some |
14485s | damage right there band of donors is |
14487s | gonna be coming out and it's going to be |
14490s | a oh oh he said uses the uh the blocking |
14495s | Badger bear as a |
14499s | uh as a barrier unit so he's just |
14501s | basically forcing out |
14503s | um the other units to block right that's |
14505s | what's going to be happening right now |
14506s | like what are you gonna be doing right |
14508s | now and are where who are you going to |
14510s | be targeting for that prize fight |
14513s | so this is gonna be it one more down |
14517s | yeah three price fight is definitely |
14519s | going into the shed |
14521s | yeah that's the that's the best course |
14523s | of action right there man |
14525s | I think yeah |
14527s | there you go try to take out the Shannon |
14529s | that's the final Shen in the whole |
14531s | puzzle and once the shank goes down and |
14533s | and you know this is a good trade and |
14535s | everything the king's court got a really |
14537s | open attack moving forward to just |
14538s | finish it off |
14540s | the bear could just block it but it's it |
14543s | still it still doesn't look good for for |
14546s | um Challenger skills |
14551s | attack error two more impact oh wow and |
14555s | two more prize fights this is looking |
14558s | close right there |
14561s | um |
14561s | the tenor of Terror can be blocked by |
14564s | the three one right there |
14566s | um from the side of uh of uh Challenger |
14569s | skill uh they put down uh they may put |
14573s | down a j3 right there um Bryce fight is |
14575s | gonna go down so this the only blocker |
14578s | the only blocker for the brush is gonna |
14580s | be removed and is this going to be a |
14584s | deny but of course another price fight |
14586s | is going to be activated |
14589s | ggs |
14592s | uh but I mean you know um means of cat |
14595s | could still go for the signpost right |
14598s | bounce the deny and just allow this |
14600s | fight |
14601s | price to actually go through and yeah |
14604s | that's exactly what he did and that |
14606s | still limits what his opponent could do |
14608s | right I mean he could still deny the |
14611s | second price fight but you know the |
14614s | king's court already have a good opening |
14617s | to go with |
14620s | there we go |
14622s | there's gonna be uh draws and Buffs as |
14626s | well with the P5 right there but the |
14628s | first Badger bear and the 42 will not be |
14631s | able to block the uh the Brash the two |
14633s | brush units three brush units in fact |
14634s | but it leaves the Mana falling short for |
14639s | a deny so free attacks all over and mint |
14643s | soft cat goes in with an opening attack |
14645s | and it's going to be ggs against |
14647s | Challenger scale mid soft Cat found the |
14651s | win Brash is going to be the MVP keyword |
14654s | for this matchup right now moon boy yep |
14657s | and that's just game number one right |
14659s | yeah yeah so yeah that's just game |
14661s | number one and and uh this is just gonna |
14664s | be going on and on right so uh we'll |
14666s | just have to see what game number two is |
14668s | all about but game one bash like what |
14670s | you said and what's the MVP of the |
14672s | keyword and and it literally did a lot |
14675s | for the for the team and you know if he |
14678s | don't remove the the king's court as |
14680s | soon as possible that spells trouble |
14683s | yeah that's why that's why midsoft cat |
14686s | just uh made sure like that you get they |
14688s | get the value |
14689s | uh from the king's court like every unit |
14692s | you keep on summoning you get the price |
14694s | fight like that's oh that's that's |
14697s | basically you know giving your opponent |
14700s | like uh a free win yeah if you keep it |
14703s | up man and now |
14705s | um going at this next match up it's |
14708s | gonna be a bit different if you see uh |
14711s | on the bottom wait list on the bottom |
14713s | it's gonna be mint soft cat on the top |
14715s | it's gonna be Challenger skill |
14718s | yep so looking at the matchup right here |
14721s | matchup table uh it's not looking good |
14723s | for the Shen player right this is a 40 |
14726s | 40 something percent kind of win rate as |
14728s | well yeah and as soon as turn number two |
14730s | right he's already taking six damage at |
14732s | this point in time or even seven damage |
14734s | at this point in time and that's a lot |
14736s | of damage to be taken in more but more |
14739s | Buffs coming in as well not forgetting |
14741s | the uh pandemonium that might be powder |
14743s | pandemonium that might be the closing |
14745s | factor for this round as well yes |
14747s | there's a lot of uh the red Nexus uh |
14750s | attacks or directed Nexus um combat |
14752s | tricks you might see organized spells |
14754s | right you might see right here and that |
14757s | free Attack Just Hits uh hits really |
14759s | hard going up to uh third going down to |
14763s | 13 as well and we see the challenge |
14765s | skill just stop right there and they're |
14768s | gonna be keeping on dealing the damage |
14770s | on the Nexus and maybe he's gonna be |
14773s | putting down the uh there you go power |
14776s | Fury and of course the jagged butcher |
14779s | so this is going to be a lot of damage |
14781s | it's going to be coming from his side |
14783s | and only one less combat tricks from the |
14786s | side of Challenger skill and this is |
14789s | like what five after the uh after the |
14792s | jacket Butcher and that's like five |
14794s | plunder triggers and yeah that's a lot |
14797s | of triggers right and we are looking at |
14799s | you know not just aggressive combat move |
14801s | or even like you know big uh big attack |
14804s | creatures just moving forward but the |
14806s | powder pandemonium that's already at |
14808s | five Stacks as long as bottomanium is at |
14810s | six stack your jet you're like just |
14812s | guaranteed |
14813s | six damage every single turn to your |
14815s | opponent Nexus and and you know that's |
14817s | not where you want to be as opponent |
14820s | yes that's right and you know um I think |
14822s | Challenger skills still has like um a a |
14826s | kind of insurance in the form of deny |
14828s | right there pounder pandemonium might be |
14830s | the might be the pushing Factor but |
14832s | still so close not even |
14835s | um we're now seeing Vince off cat |
14837s | falling back quite a bit by not putting |
14839s | down that jacket the second Jagged |
14841s | butcher look I just slows them down a |
14843s | bit like I'm kind of wondering why are |
14845s | you pulling back are you uh waiting for |
14848s | uh are you uh accounting for a possible |
14853s | um restack or refill refulfillment of |
14856s | the the board over the next turn or are |
14859s | you just waiting for uh are you just |
14861s | gonna be banking it on the the spells |
14864s | like uh getting some directed Nexus |
14866s | damage |
14868s | I think I think he's just comfortable |
14869s | right means of cat uh he he knows he got |
14872s | everything in control he got everything |
14874s | calculated as well uh that did not he |
14876s | just have to be really careful with deny |
14878s | and |
14879s | um yeah so as long as he could play |
14881s | around the deny that that plunder |
14882s | pandemonium is going to be no problem |
14884s | for him to to fire it off as well so uh |
14887s | seven seven more damage coming seven |
14889s | more Health in the Nexus and I think |
14892s | this might be game over the sun this |
14894s | might be the final turn yes and you can |
14896s | see a lot a lot of choices right here |
14898s | you see your pile they're pandemonium |
14899s | that can be used right now considering |
14901s | that there's only three Mana left that |
14903s | there's you have a lot of choices uh you |
14906s | have the warning shot you have uh the uh |
14909s | the the pirouette man a lot of choices |
14913s | man right there and I'm seeing I'm |
14915s | seeing the stylish shot be used already |
14918s | so |
14919s | yeah he's on a clock and uh Min shot uh |
14924s | sorry mint soft cat it's gonna be uh |
14927s | cashing out right now like he's gonna be |
14930s | he all right he's gonna be winning this |
14933s | by far wow amazing play amazing |
14936s | aggressive play from means of cat yep |
14940s | pirouette just doing one more damage |
14942s | putting him down to five and there we |
14943s | have powder pandemonium ladies and |
14946s | gentlemen |
14947s | four monkeys coming up dealing 4 damage |
14950s | and with the the warning shot and that's |
14954s | it though there's nothing that he could |
14955s | do no speed no healing no nothing no |
14958s | combat is game over |
14960s | oh man ggs and just some warning shot |
14964s | not really a warning because you know he |
14968s | just got destroyed by that warning shot |
14970s | and the powder pandemonium just went in |
14974s | and just finished it off man |
14977s | finish him off right there amazing and |
14980s | you know it he just played enough right |
14983s | um you saw a challenger scale not go in |
14986s | and account for a possible powder |
14989s | pandemonium right so that was that was |
14992s | kind of uh you know kind of a a play |
14994s | like a kind of aggressive play right |
14997s | there on this side putting down a |
14998s | screeching dragon and not even counting |
15000s | his uh his Mana for a possible deny play |
15003s | yeah but was that a mistake coming in |
15006s | right like you know that you are at |
15008s | really low Health you know that you know |
15009s | these are the possible cards that |
15011s | opponent could do and especially you're |
15012s | facing off a powder pandemonium deck |
15014s | this is an open deck list you know your |
15016s | opponent Run Street Powder pandemonium |
15017s | you have to have some respect for this |
15019s | card because if you don't you ran you |
15022s | like you tap out of four Mana that's |
15024s | basically open season for the |
15025s | pandemonium to go through and that's |
15027s | what exactly happened and and you know |
15029s | and that was a very good win and very |
15031s | clean win coming in from uh means of |
15033s | cats |
15035s | yeah and uh means of guy going in with a |
15037s | 2-0 especially during the first match |
15041s | um we now see Shem not Shannon |
15045s | they're not shining right now right |
15047s | Shannon just that just put it just put |
15050s | him back where it belongs like he's uh |
15052s | he's a kind of a non-meta uh kind of a |
15055s | spicy pick right there |
15058s | um the the more consistent versions of |
15060s | the j4 deck could have flourished a bit |
15062s | more so um that would have been a |
15066s | um that would have been amazing if it |
15068s | got even to top four and even to the uh |
15072s | this is the finals in semi-finals as |
15074s | well so well |
15076s | um let's see uh I'm honest do we have |
15079s | any more uh matches that we can spectate |
15081s | right now oh I believe this is rough |
15084s | Terror going against Evie Mana right |
15086s | here uh one one this is game number |
15088s | three and we are likely gonna see a |
15090s | powder pandemonium uh mirror right here |
15095s | okay |
15096s | so oh wow okay Evie Mana goes in with |
15100s | the knocks him forever they uh they are |
15104s | um recognizing that this is uh a going |
15107s | to be a minion play between the two so |
15109s | uh with this kind of match up you would |
15111s | want to see uh your board be more than |
15115s | the other right so that's a good play |
15117s | like an action Ferber with definitely |
15119s | accounted for and |
15121s | the elegant is going to be putting down |
15123s | and uh did they this this the first is |
15127s | this a turn has flounder been activated |
15129s | for Raptor right now uh not yet right |
15131s | but you could start the plunder going |
15133s | with the pirouette right just stun the |
15135s | tree too and and just do one more damage |
15138s | to to his opponent and he could still |
15140s | block with the monkey that's done as |
15141s | well and I think the uh Jagger task |
15144s | master |
15145s | right it's the one that is going to be |
15147s | the key card for Mana to actually allow |
15149s | him to have the edge because he's gonna |
15151s | add plus one to every single one costs |
15153s | million uh units everywhere |
15155s | um in his in his gameplay yeah it's |
15157s | gonna be uh getting uh everyone to plus |
15161s | one uh every one every one cost card |
15164s | plus one and look at that the pirouette |
15166s | is gonna be used uh Pharaoh Fury is |
15168s | going to be targeted in stunned or |
15171s | elegant Edge this is going to be |
15172s | preventing more damage coming in and no |
15176s | attack is gonna be uh posted right there |
15179s | right so this will be a uh a development |
15183s | turn for RAV Terra he may go for a |
15186s | powder pandemonium and he does go in or |
15190s | wait sorry Monkey Business sorry yeah |
15192s | monkey business has been put down and |
15194s | this is going to be uh possibly uh going |
15198s | in for a plunder activation for uh |
15202s | Elegance Edge elegant Edge or uh Jagged |
15205s | butcher yeah you are a good deck you |
15208s | don't block you never block as an agro |
15210s | deck and that is a wonder why when it |
15211s | comes to aggro matchup like you know |
15213s | it's all about you know counting your |
15215s | damage and how could you uh gain the |
15218s | maximum advantage against your opponent |
15219s | and right here Mana is just looking |
15221s | really strong right now with you know |
15222s | four or three four attack units as well |
15225s | uh but ratera needs the additional draw |
15227s | power to refuel and you know it you have |
15230s | to try to find it knocks him further off |
15231s | the top as well that's something that he |
15233s | might be looking for uh to actually even |
15235s | out this board |
15237s | and it's right and it's going to be a |
15239s | good choice uh for uh for reftera to |
15244s | just go draw on and find out uh two of |
15246s | the cars are fleeting now he he there's |
15249s | choice right here that you may want to |
15251s | pick between uh will it be uh will you |
15254s | use |
15255s | and oh well it does go over the harbor |
15258s | and this is a mirror fist there you go |
15261s | go in with the pool shark there you go |
15263s | and might go and just uh wait it out |
15267s | like uh that uh that option the fleet |
15270s | induction firmer will not be used as at |
15272s | the moment |
15273s | yep and Mana is just looking strong |
15275s | right he got the damage he got the board |
15277s | uh but roughtera got the guess and Mana |
15280s | is going to be seeing three cards this |
15282s | sun if he finds himself a pandemonium uh |
15285s | that might make a difference in this |
15287s | particular fight no pandemonium of the |
15289s | top three card but another Taskmaster |
15291s | and that is gonna |
15293s | um buff all his one course units up even |
15296s | further as well so roughtera looks like |
15299s | he got the guess but as long as uh he |
15301s | can maintain this particular control |
15303s | like you know this |
15305s | um consistency that he have uh he might |
15307s | have an opening tool to close up this |
15309s | off with the pandemonium in his hand |
15311s | that's right and now with that Target |
15313s | towards the powder monkey right there |
15315s | that Jagged ass Master won't be propped |
15317s | as in the moment but considering that |
15319s | there's a pair went over at the side of |
15321s | uh EV Mana he can still prop that and |
15323s | just still summon the other two units |
15326s | wait what |
15328s | okay oh yeah oh what |
15331s | he he would have wanted to uh profit |
15333s | first right because it check it uh uh |
15336s | Taskmaster would give plus one plus one |
15337s | but yeah I'm feeling that he wants more |
15340s | of the chump blocks uh over at the side |
15342s | I think he got the value that he Mana is |
15345s | actually looking out for right he got |
15346s | the value he got one plus one on to all |
15349s | the one uh one cost and that it really |
15351s | did make a lot of difference as well and |
15353s | this actually withheld withhold a lot of |
15355s | information uh just by not committing |
15357s | the pirouette early and um this actually |
15360s | would you know influence a little bit of |
15362s | play that roughtera could potentially do |
15364s | with his with his hand as well so |
15366s | especially with you know but at this |
15368s | point in time Mana will be only seeing |
15370s | one card per turn the next few in the |
15373s | next few draws as well so that is him uh |
15375s | on the back foot but hey he's using the |
15378s | star Guardian center cap back so I |
15380s | believe uh he's gonna draw into what he |
15382s | wants yeah that's right he's gonna be |
15385s | drawing into what he wants but uh let's |
15388s | see |
15389s | um if he does go in attack elegant Edge |
15392s | it goes in with the barbed and he's |
15395s | going to be drawing as well so one of |
15397s | these guys are really digging deep into |
15400s | their decks man like a this is going to |
15403s | be uh oh stylish shot in the face |
15409s | pandemonium let's go |
15412s | right but here's the thing right |
15414s | roughterra don't really have any more |
15417s | space |
15418s | on this on his on his uh bench for for |
15421s | the powder pandemonium to actually fire |
15422s | so uh and he's already at six HP so you |
15426s | have to be a little bit more careful |
15427s | another Bob chain coming in Mana is |
15430s | going to see even more cards the next |
15431s | turn so after I have to be really |
15433s | aggressive right here you know just go |
15434s | for an open attack clear up your board |
15436s | and let the powder pandemonium do its |
15438s | musical magic yes that's right powder |
15441s | pandemonium will be the choice a bit |
15443s | later |
15444s | oh |
15450s | oh man yeah I do agree with you man |
15453s | opening attack would be the best course |
15454s | of action for rap Terror right now and |
15457s | uh there's no way for uh that fist to |
15460s | you know to get that elusive uh uh |
15464s | elusive uh put on uh considering that |
15466s | there is no spell uh that he can use |
15468s | right now and again pandemonium right |
15471s | now we'll get him to have more units but |
15475s | if he does attack and if he got that uh |
15478s | gets traded out |
15480s | does that mean over at the next turn |
15483s | um there will be a chance for Evanna to |
15485s | do an open attack |
15488s | but I think like you know right here |
15490s | roughtera is |
15492s | not in a position to take an open attack |
15494s | right he have to go for the swing right |
15495s | here but he's only gonna do one damage |
15498s | with the pull shark that's it but you |
15501s | get a full bot trade with your opponent |
15504s | um but the fist is going to be trouble |
15506s | if uh it ever lands on mana's board as |
15510s | well |
15511s | yeah so like this is gonna be uh quite a |
15514s | decision for raft era if he goes all all |
15517s | in all of the guys over at this side are |
15520s | gonna be blocked |
15522s | um |
15523s | but he is indeed in trouble because that |
15526s | fizz uh is already flipped it's gonna be |
15528s | three only one damage out and he's gonna |
15531s | be out right there it's gonna be |
15533s | um uh out and gonna be sleeping with the |
15537s | fishes right all right there you go |
15539s | that's why I was saying like he was |
15541s | thinking maybe I should pass because if |
15543s | I don't if I do uh if I do attack I'm |
15547s | gonna be not having anyone blocking over |
15550s | at my side or just one card blocking and |
15553s | the fists uh possibly might get in with |
15558s | is very oh it's already before too yeah |
15560s | with the jagged Taskmaster all right so |
15562s | here's the problem now right his Force |
15564s | he's uh he's actually forced to go for a |
15566s | powder pandemonium right here but |
15568s | there's not much value to it |
15570s | right you're wasting so many um monkeys |
15573s | as of right yeah and and just because |
15575s | you won the feast as a blocker so that |
15577s | you know the face wouldn't get to go in |
15579s | as well but they're all out in mana's |
15581s | hand |
15582s | is the designing factor and Mana got |
15584s | this game is over yeah it is over indeed |
15588s | a Mana it's already out with one one and |
15593s | that all out is gonna be used |
15596s | to get into the action fighter Fury is |
15599s | gonna oh up to four one and there you go |
15602s | double elusives is gonna be the winning |
15606s | Factor right there in Evie Mana gets |
15608s | into a 2-1 against raft era putting him |
15612s | out and he's gonna be moving on to top |
15614s | four right now moon boy yeah that is |
15617s | very close right that's a very close |
15618s | matchup especially when we talk about a |
15620s | mirror matchup like that that jaggered |
15622s | butcher literally put mana on like you |
15625s | know above rough Terror just because of |
15627s | those additional one that one damage |
15628s | that could push him on top and and |
15630s | that's the every damage matter in the |
15632s | mirror match like that and everything |
15634s | paid off |
15636s | yeah it's a it's really really important |
15638s | that they have to have this like three |
15641s | plus one for the dragon butcher uh I'm |
15643s | sorry jacket the Taskmaster and I was I |
15646s | was like a kind of Biffy like why did he |
15648s | Wonder first like he just wanted that |
15650s | block and that plus one was already |
15652s | important and uh already enough that's |
15654s | how proud these guys are and you know |
15657s | the all that he just went all out |
15659s | especially during the last portion of |
15661s | the game because he was already all out |
15664s | of cards man right no more cards are |
15667s | gonna be used so that's why it was |
15669s | really the the perfect card for him to |
15672s | move on to the semi-finals yeah and you |
15675s | know being a good player you have to go |
15676s | all out and that's exactly what he did |
15678s | but ladies and gentlemen all the top |
15680s | eight game have been concluded let's |
15682s | just take a look at the bracket once |
15684s | again to see who are the final four |
15686s | players yeah |
15688s | okay so it's gonna be mint soft cat |
15690s | versus Evie Mana for uh the |
15693s | semi-finalist one and FNP chenya versus |
15696s | Newman for the semi-finals group two so |
15699s | again top four are gonna be these |
15702s | players and oh man amazing that we got |
15705s | to see a lot of uh I got we got to see |
15708s | this uh mint soft cat and Evie mana |
15710s | chanya and Newman not yet so probably |
15712s | that's the one that we're going to be |
15713s | casting later yeah for sure we have not |
15716s | seen chenya Newman in this whole |
15718s | tournament so far so I'm really excited |
15720s | to see what these two players is gonna |
15722s | bring any spicy text any spicy uh |
15725s | strategy moving forward from these two |
15727s | players as well so um Excelsior we are |
15730s | down to our final two game for the night |
15731s | what do you think um or what do you |
15733s | expect for the top four and the grand |
15735s | finals now uh we have seen a while ago |
15739s | uh mint soft cat bring the same like |
15742s | Samir fists |
15744s | um we saw the echo Jinx and we saw |
15747s | Tristana so uh as we have seen uh from |
15750s | Mana |
15752s | um it looks like quite absane right so |
15754s | maybe we'll see more of that some mirror |
15756s | face Tristana |
15758s | um I've yet to see Echo Jinx on play uh |
15761s | right we have seen it a while ago but |
15763s | yeah I want to see it yet again so um |
15766s | maybe more uh it's maybe it's aggro town |
15770s | right now moon boy as we are seeing in |
15773s | Agro and mid-range tokens uh are |
15776s | dominating the The Meta right now and |
15779s | with good reason as you can see here |
15780s | over the finals man yeah I'm glad right |
15783s | like you know we were saying previously |
15784s | that control is actually picking up |
15786s | right now and uh it doesn't seems like |
15789s | the case in our final four so hopefully |
15791s | we get to see you know a little bit of |
15793s | variation coming in from the top four |
15795s | and finals so let's just wait and see |
15797s | right so ladies and gentlemen as we go |
15799s | for a short break right here so do not |
15801s | go anywhere because the top four these |
15803s | semi-finals will be coming up later on |
15805s | my name is moon boy and I'm joined by |

16553s | the semi-finals stop four right now moon |
16555s | boy oh how are you feeling man with the |
16557s | with the matches that we've been casting |
16559s | for the past few hours |
16562s | so many different Decks that we have |
16564s | seen so far so many close matches that |
16567s | that we have experienced as well and |
16569s | there is so many ups and downs and and |
16571s | so many stories that have been made or |
16574s | even you know uh completed but we are |
16576s | down to the next chapter top four the |
16580s | four men still have their world's seated |
16582s | dreams alive and only for all this for |
16585s | only one man can make it to work so what |
16588s | what what do you think think of this you |
16590s | know uh competitiveness or this like you |
16592s | know hungriness coming in from for four |
16594s | then yeah I mean it's high stakes right |
16596s | now you only we only get one uh spot or |
16599s | one definite spot to the world's |
16602s | qualifier or through the worlds uh even |
16604s | right and then this is actually a |
16606s | confident spot right now and we are like |
16608s | as competitive players and uh uh |
16611s | scasters as well that's so that's gonna |
16612s | be one spot you would want to be in |
16615s | right and if you are here over at the |
16618s | top four you are close already and for |
16621s | the topic if even though you've got the |
16623s | points you've got to be kind of envious |
16624s | for a top four or even the top one |
16627s | that's all going to be right here over |
16628s | at the finals uh that's coming up uh |
16631s | after this one so still it's still kind |
16634s | of a a huge pressure for the players |
16637s | right considering that like I I've I've |
16640s | uh we've been both in tournaments right |
16642s | we've built play the tournaments and |
16643s | considering the metal pressure that |
16645s | comes in when you do try and play your |
16647s | tournaments like like your blood |
16649s | pressure goes up |
16651s | to kind of get anxious most of the time |
16653s | what is he playing what is this and I |
16656s | already know how to play this but why am |
16658s | I not getting top decks no like the |
16661s | whole the whole experience has got to be |
16664s | kind of um you know nerve-wracking for |
16666s | our players and you know it's it I I do |
16669s | admire these players sort of having the |
16670s | the fortitude for even going through |
16672s | this |
16673s | yeah and it kind of messes with your |
16675s | head at any point in time right there's |
16677s | so much uh Mind Games involved and it's |
16681s | not just all luck and skill but it's all |
16684s | about you know how competent are you to |
16686s | mess up your opponent's play as much as |
16688s | possible yes you know we each of us know |
16690s | what is our game plan what is what does |
16692s | Our Deck do but the higher level of how |
16695s | you should play this game is how to not |
16699s | let your opponent do what they are |
16700s | supposed to do instead of focusing on |
16703s | what you are supposed to do so you know |
16705s | there's lots of like this kind of |
16707s | scenario so when is it the right time to |
16709s | disrupt when is the right time to |
16710s | execute and when is the right time to go |
16712s | for the kill so it's all you know really |
16715s | high level and a lot of layers when it |
16717s | comes to consideration when it comes to |
16718s | plays like this but we're down to our |
16720s | final four players and this four players |
16723s | are just you know one of the best in the |
16724s | Apec as of this season thus far let's |
16727s | just take a look at the brackets and how |
16729s | happy they're doing so far |
16731s | yes let's look at the brackets right now |
16734s | and see |
16735s | um how they went from the quarterfinals |
16737s | now we saw a mint soft cat which are the |
16740s | three words |
16741s | [Laughter] |
16744s | of cat going in with the 2-0 against |
16746s | their opponent Challenger skill and uh |
16748s | their Pharaoh was beated out by Mana |
16751s | with the 2-1 as we saw a while ago |
16754s | they're gonna be moving forward and we |
16756s | saw um Evie against chanya chenya moving |
16759s | forward as well with the two one another |
16761s | Clean Sweep coming in from new men |
16763s | against Rose BB so they're going to be |
16766s | moving forward as well but for the |
16768s | purposes of this broadcast we're going |
16770s | to be looking at chanya and Newman first |
16773s | because we haven't casted them over the |
16775s | the past few hours so this is going to |
16777s | be uh quite exciting as to what they're |
16779s | going to be bringing |
16781s | yeah so I I'm curious all right I'm |
16783s | curious what the this um these two |
16785s | players are gonna bring we have seen |
16787s | Shen in the top eight and and that |
16790s | didn't make it to top four so we're |
16792s | slowly to streamline right we're |
16794s | starting to streamline to see what are |
16796s | the best deck in this format task file |
16798s | and it seems like Samira and shisana are |
16801s | still the leaders when it comes to um |
16803s | you know top decks being picked off by |
16806s | this place you know why I feel that |
16808s | during the season Samira is the pick |
16811s | because it's summer |
16813s | oh |
16818s | [Laughter] |
16820s | I guess that's why it's a mirror there's |
16822s | a lot of Samira there okay okay yeah |
16824s | yeah |
16825s | it's a mirror time and the Samira verse |
16828s | just you know just keeps on expanding it |
16830s | uh but we saw Samira Fizz we saw Samira |
16833s | Jinx |
16834s | um I think I I saw yeah Samir Pantheon a |
16838s | while ago so let's see if there's going |
16840s | to be another version or another variant |
16841s | you know on this matchup and look at |
16844s | this uh what can you say about Newman's |
16846s | Tech moon boy wow but on Newman on the |
16849s | top side we got Echo Jinx that's |
16851s | something that you are interested to |
16852s | watch out uh to watch in this matchup |
16854s | and and then follow up by a Samara Fist |
16857s | and then a comma set and this is this |
16860s | three decks are one of the best three |
16862s | decks in the format right now and you |
16864s | know it's down to China how is he gonna |
16866s | answer to this three decks that's right |
16868s | and of course over the side of China |
16870s | it's gonna be oh the first time we're |
16872s | going to be seeing over at uh this |
16874s | tournament today I've seen it over |
16876s | played over at ladder it's kind of still |
16878s | strong action Pantheon and we see Karma |
16882s | set right there and Teemo slash Tristana |
16886s | now this is going to be a curious |
16887s | combination it's usually Nar Tristana |
16890s | and uh Teemo but now it's just Teemo and |
16894s | Tristana but yeah I mean it still can |
16896s | still be powerful as we have seen a |
16898s | while ago but I'm gonna talk about the |
16902s | good talk right now |
16903s | uh moon boy which decks do you think |
16906s | would be a band |
16908s | well I mean in my honest opinion I think |
16912s | uh both comma that might be bad yeah |
16915s | definitely I feel I feel it is the |
16918s | definite Target yeah like you don't want |
16921s | your unit to be destroyed you don't want |
16923s | them to be shot down as well so that's |
16925s | how you protect um the echo Jinx and the |
16928s | Samira fees from for Newman and for |
16930s | chenya as well right you don't want your |
16932s | Pantheon to be easily removed you don't |
16934s | want your yodels to be removed as well |
16935s | so just bend out the PNC deck that could |
16938s | potentially do all these things and |
16940s | disrupt your boss state |
16942s | that's right that's going to be the |
16943s | possible answer right there just to get |
16946s | those bands out but of course we are |
16949s | going to be seeing which ones of which |
16951s | one of these uh decks are gonna be |
16953s | removed or are gonna be uh blocked out |
16956s | from our place but yeah they uh most of |
16959s | these decks are unit heavy uh for |
16962s | example you go um action Pantheon um |
16965s | actually Pantheon depends on the fated |
16968s | units as well |
16970s | um you you get a lot of those uh faded |
16973s | units and of course the landmark that |
16974s | the action is developing right it's |
16977s | gonna be easy for this combination to |
16980s | pop off especially maybe around turn |
16982s | five to six they would you would be able |
16985s | to make big units and maximize the the |
16988s | value of the landmarks so also uh the |
16991s | wireless Palace right it would maximize |
16993s | that |
16995s | um uh go if you go against it uh with |
16998s | maybe a Samira Fizz maybe it would fall |
17002s | short right because it develops a bit |
17004s | slower than some mirror fists right so |
17007s | uh uh it's uh it's it's a good matchup |
17012s | um but if you go against uh uh a a Karma |
17015s | said it would get definitely get |
17017s | destroyed right now like yeah for sure |
17019s | turn by turn Target by Target you've |
17022s | seen this over at the previous matches |
17024s | so we have casted it can the tides can |
17026s | be turned with the the karma and it |
17029s | might for it might you might force your |
17030s | opponent to like definitely surrender |
17032s | When You Reach enlightened right so it's |
17034s | gonna be uh easy so maybe we might see |
17038s | that kind of band yeah but you know as |
17040s | much as possible that |
17041s | um you know the karma set could actually |
17043s | uh destroy your units and not allow you |
17046s | to develop right but as long as you run |
17047s | them out of gas and and just finish them |
17050s | out fast enough |
17051s | um there is a chance for you to actually |
17053s | take down that Karma set as long as you |
17055s | don't reach turn 10 10 there's a high |
17057s | chance of you |
17058s | um winning this whole matchup as well |
17060s | right and Pantheon on the other hand |
17062s | we've seen Pantheon previously there's a |
17064s | panther Samira variation but once the |
17067s | pantheon level up it's gonna be really |
17069s | scary with like tons of keywords stacked |
17071s | onto that man as well and with the help |
17073s | of and with the Synergy of the um |
17076s | shurima package with akshan it's it's |
17078s | not difficult to actually start those |
17080s | fated triggers going as well yeah I |
17083s | would like to see the how uh action is |
17086s | going to be you know it's always |
17087s | exciting uh when action gets to be |
17089s | flipped which keywords are they're gonna |
17092s | be uh developing because you know it's |
17094s | gonna be a random pick and the keywords |
17097s | are just keep on expanding expanding per |
17100s | expansion right and uh you know that's |
17102s | gonna be more uh more ABS to add to |
17105s | Pantheon |
17106s | more muscles or like more you know |
17109s | utilities coming in for the pantheon as |
17111s | well so like you know the thing about |
17113s | Randomness right RNG when it comes to |
17115s | Rolling Pantheon's a keyword the best |
17118s | way to to utilize it is to have as many |
17120s | keywords as possible so you know don't |
17123s | just take F5 just get every keyword as |
17127s | possible so that you know the RNG would |
17129s | always be in your favor because your |
17130s | heat rate is 100 that's right that's |
17133s | right so well we'll see we'll see how |
17135s | which guy uh which of these uh decks are |
17138s | going to be banning uh I feel that the |
17140s | the the the players are thinking really |
17143s | hard about which decks are gonna be |
17145s | banning as of the moment because you |
17148s | know top four already at the the spot |
17150s | where you knew I think you are one step |
17153s | away for from getting thousands of |
17156s | dollars if I remember correctly right |
17159s | um it's already a thousand smart if you |
17161s | go in and win this matchup you're gonna |
17164s | be at the final seat already or rather |
17167s | Yeah final seat already you're gonna be |
17169s | securing that spot and also one win away |
17171s | from getting that world spot already oh |
17173s | boy one minute away from a chance for |
17176s | wolves two wins away two walls so it's |
17180s | just so close guys you're so close at |
17182s | the end of the tunnel do not give up at |
17184s | this point in time finish it off right |
17186s | two more wins that's all you need you |
17187s | really won every single game in for |
17190s | today so what's two more yeah that's |
17193s | right that's right and you know um I've |
17196s | been I'm happy that we're receiver we |
17199s | get to cast these types of tournaments |
17201s | man world's qualifier after seasonals |
17203s | there were just one step we're just |
17205s | moving up in terms of uh how uh how |
17208s | Global Legends of Terror has been right |
17210s | that we have we're seeing uh seasonals |
17212s | with the bishop in lock into uh the |
17215s | regions and then we're gonna go if they |
17217s | go into Worlds they're gonna we're gonna |
17219s | have a wider reach and uh they're gonna |
17221s | be playing with other regions as well so |
17224s | this is going to be the stepping stone |
17226s | for you to go out of your Shard and just |
17228s | go in and try to beat it out with the |
17231s | masters of the world |
17234s | yeah that's true right like we have like |
17237s | we haven't been playing against other |
17239s | shots for a very long time and Wells is |
17242s | the only opportunity to play against |
17243s | players of other caliber or other styles |
17246s | or other region and you know that's what |
17249s | everybody tries to go into and and you |
17253s | know this is the very first spot in the |
17255s | season why not just take it you're very |
17257s | close to it yeah really close and uh you |
17260s | know between these two I am I'm a really |
17263s | you know I'm economic because both of |
17265s | these still they basically have like two |
17267s | decks of the same uh archetypes like uh |
17271s | and it feels like um we uh |
17275s | as we have seen some of the professional |
17277s | players like go in and put in their you |
17279s | know their grids you see the win loss |
17281s | Advantage it just gets keeps on getting |
17284s | clearer and clear with all the data |
17285s | there that they're putting in uh with |
17288s | these tournaments so uh I'm uh I'm gonna |
17290s | be expecting uh still more until there |
17294s | are a sell more Tristana and some mirror |
17297s | variants until there are like balancing |
17299s | changes like you know but for now please |
17302s | don't balance it out I'm still playing |
17303s | it so please don't balance out those |
17306s | decks because I'm still enjoying it |
17308s | um right now and getting the hang of |
17310s | like getting more wins for uh for the |
17313s | value and even setting it up like quick |
17315s | wins for a some mirror this deck is is |
17318s | the way for me like aggro uh is really |
17321s | doing it for me right now but now let's |
17324s | get into the action as we watch the |
17326s | first game moon boy yeah so ladies and |
17329s | gentlemen off we go this is top four |
17331s | Newman going against chanya and we're |
17334s | gonna be going into I believe this is |
17336s | Samira fish going up against Bano City |
17339s | Tristana uh Teemo coming in from China |
17342s | so this is the uh damasia variant |
17345s | compared to the uh builds water variant |
17348s | that we have been seeing uh today so |
17350s | this is something different that China |
17351s | is actually bringing onto the table uh |
17354s | for this matchup that's right and this |
17356s | is going to be uh quite exciting uh |
17359s | because we are seeing two um content |
17363s | totem Heavy Hitters uh in the tournament |
17366s | meta and the candle Commando is going to |
17368s | be put down it's gonna be |
17370s | um uncontested at the moment so there's |
17372s | going to be a free hungry owl cat that |
17375s | maybe put down uh over at the next turn |
17378s | now of course there's gonna be a free |
17380s | attack as well uh that may be coming out |
17383s | from a Newman he's going to be using the |
17385s | father Fury uh right there so |
17388s | Battlefield is going to be a summit Ed |
17390s | jettison is possibly the worst spell |
17392s | that you can get from that that plunder |
17394s | man I I really hate it when that happens |
17399s | yeah definitely and and right here it |
17401s | seems like you know uh the Kenya he got |
17404s | a pretty good opening right but have a |
17407s | new man is just going on the offense |
17408s | right here and going in for the flare I |
17411s | believe he will be gunning down the uh |
17413s | mayor right you don't want the mayor |
17414s | abandon city mayor to get too much uh |
17417s | value out of this as well so this |
17419s | literally wipes out the whole Board of |
17421s | China and new man is is having the the |
17424s | advantage that he's actually looking out |
17426s | that he's actually searching for and you |
17428s | know having two more units on the board |
17430s | as well still have the flag going uh |
17432s | Samira is going to be leveling up pretty |
17433s | soon as well Newman is just looking |
17435s | great |
17436s | yeah Newman is looking great right now |
17438s | and of course getting another Samira oh |
17441s | my gosh that's good value right there |
17443s | but over at the side of Kenya let's see |
17445s | how they will be developing of course |
17447s | putting down the mayor will be the best |
17450s | course of action just to uh decrease the |
17452s | value of some of the other cards or |
17454s | especially the first card you're going |
17455s | to be playing but again the name of the |
17457s | game now is to see which uh one develops |
17461s | the board more effectively while trying |
17464s | to deal some damage towards your |
17465s | opponent's uh Nexus and look at that |
17468s | Samira gets to flip quite early and look |
17473s | at that dude who can who can serve a |
17476s | sword better than Samira man just tell |
17478s | me and I will say no Samir Does it |
17481s | Better |
17482s | yeah like like you know leveling up some |
17484s | mirror at turn four like that is really |
17487s | fast right and and you know especially |
17490s | right here and he could start to get his |
17492s | uh multiple uh rallies moving forward as |
17496s | well as long as he cuts it costs like |
17498s | six spells and it's not gonna be too |
17500s | difficult because as of right now |
17501s | there's four more in his hand ready to |
17503s | go as well and you know it's gonna be |
17505s | easy peasy coming in for uh for the |
17508s | Samira to actually get that trigger and |
17509s | just and just go for the little kill |
17512s | all out |
17513s | all out indeed and now you can see you |
17517s | know uh this flips Samira I haven't seen |
17520s | it been flipped this early man it's |
17522s | usually like uh um like around turn six |
17526s | uh when they get to uh to steamroll the |
17528s | opponent but new men definitely not new |
17531s | to this archetype as you can see |
17533s | bringing down Kenya down to seven now |
17536s | seven |
17537s | is really cutting it close like you can |
17540s | see a bunch of flares a bunch of a |
17542s | straight uh Nexus shots that you can |
17545s | bring down right there but over at the |
17548s | side look at that fizz being summoned |
17551s | over at the side of Newman also flipped |
17554s | that's that's a testament to how many |
17556s | spells have been played by Newman |
17558s | um yeah but I think it's it's pretty uh |
17561s | straightforward at this point in time |
17563s | right like this is gonna do three uh the |
17566s | fixed shot is gonna do one and oh no |
17568s | okay so with the Commando is going to be |
17570s | blocking the face as well so I mean it's |
17573s | it's still you know he he will still go |
17575s | for the flare into a um try try to |
17579s | actually close off the game here or even |
17580s | like you know go get the rally and just |
17582s | and just do as much damage to his |
17584s | opponent as much as possible but China |
17586s | though he got that uh Tristana in his |
17589s | hand so if he gets this turn uh things |
17591s | might be a little bit uh better for him |
17593s | you know for this to turn this around |
17595s | the next turn as well |
17597s | let's write this right now grandfather |
17599s | uh pay is going to be putting as good as |
17602s | you put down on the side of Ed the NP |
17604s | chenya now this is going to be helpful |
17607s | uh to like possibly uh put up the attack |
17610s | of the hungry Outcast right there and |
17613s | other units as well |
17615s | but I am uh still not optimistic for uh |
17619s | for Channel right now considering this |
17620s | his health is down to three now that's |
17624s | really that's like two warning shots in |
17627s | a flare that's it that's gonna be uh and |
17630s | it's it's possible that you might see a |
17633s | Newman |
17634s | um go with that or even just develop |
17636s | units and jump the waters is going to be |
17639s | used right now it's gonna it's gonna be |
17640s | uh quite effective as well |
17672s | yes just take that three damage and over |
17675s | the next turn this is gonna be the |
17677s | crucial play this is when things are |
17680s | gonna be happening for Newman because he |
17682s | is within range 3 HP look at that |
17686s | stylish shot goes on and deals with |
17689s | damage and even has a an overwhelm with |
17693s | a grandfather vein look at that Shin is |
17697s | um chancy mode is going to be coming out |
17698s | even though it lost during the previous |
17700s | round but this is it Newman going in |
17703s | with the one zero straight off the |
17706s | damage and within with a definite win |
17710s | like look at the difference between |
17711s | their uh their Nexus HPS like this is |
17714s | basically saying |
17716s | um I already flipped early uh two of my |
17719s | Champions I'm gonna be winning this |
17721s | match up and you're not going to be |
17722s | doing anything about it |
17735s | yeah |
17737s | man |
17740s | yeah not so much uh that you can do from |
17743s | the side of China and even though he uh |
17745s | they were trying to develop the board |
17747s | like uh you see the Whiteboard right |
17748s | there the you know the the the champ the |
17752s | waters with the overwhelm uh with all |
17754s | the stylish shots with all the flares |
17756s | that was just enough man uh to take him |
17759s | out but of course Jenny is still going |
17760s | to be using the same deck all right same |
17763s | deck uh the uh there's son attack but |
17766s | over at the side of Newman it's gonna be |
17768s | Echo chicks okay it's gonna be quite |
17770s | exciting I've been waiting for this man |
17798s | foreign |
17803s | still going for this crying sense oh |
17807s | this is going to be just for the predict |
17809s | uh right there and look at that oh more |
17813s | more support for chanya as he puts down |
17816s | the Bando Commando and he's gonna be |
17818s | going on with an attack Anna unblocked |
17821s | sigh on the side of Vandal Commando and |
17824s | look at that this is going to be uh uh |
17827s | preventing bundle Commando to uh get |
17829s | that Nexus damage and he won't be able |
17832s | to uh get one more hungry owl cat as uh |
17835s | from that attack |
17836s | [Music] |
17840s | oh yes and uh we can see that uh during |
17843s | this uh draw look at that time is that a |
17846s | Time trick it looks like a Time trick |
17847s | and the echo has been put down already I |
17851s | think he is going to be flipped really |
17853s | soon with this uh with the predictive |
17856s | he's doing over at the side of uh |
17860s | over at the side of Newman and he draws |
17862s | out the Border |
17864s | like those borders are free uh free |
17867s | Minions that are free units you can put |
17869s | down over at your side uh once you be |
17871s | once you're able to predict them and |
17874s | look oh Chrono breaks are already out |
17877s | because Echo has been flipped |
17880s | here you go this is gonna be the start |
17883s | of the echo action |
17886s | you get free time tricks after you get |
17889s | an attack and you get to predict as well |
17891s | which cards are gonna be uh drawn out |
17894s | after that time trick |
17899s | all right so okay so we're now seeing oh |
17902s | oh wow there's gonna be more support for |
17906s | predict from Newman and he gets into the |
17910s | position like this is what you want to |
17912s | do when you're uh when you're playing |
17914s | the echo Jinx you want to control |
17916s | whatever you're going to be drawing next |
17918s | so that it goes towards your favor but |
17920s | look the tenor of Terror is gonna be on |
17924s | the side of uh Kenya but instead he goes |
17928s | in and summons the grand grandfather Ray |
17931s | right there to bring out the hungry owl |
17933s | cat okay this is gonna be a chance again |
17936s | for chanya just keep on drawing but over |
17938s | at Newman missing shot he he predicted |
17942s | this and he wanted this to happen so |
17944s | that he would be able to like uh like do |
17946s | some Spock removals over at the over at |
17948s | his side |
17952s | so |
17953s | yeah let's see if we can see a Mystic |
17957s | shot there you go |
17959s | oh |
17961s | there we go missing shot going in |
17963s | towards that Vandal Vandal Commando |
17967s | and uh right now uh there might be a |
17970s | form up that may be used right here to |
17972s | protect that uh battle Commando because |
17974s | uh |
17975s | he you would want to like make sure most |
17978s | of your units are protected and he does |
17981s | bring it up to three four |
17984s | and this might be an attack that's uh |
17987s | coming oh he wants to still develop into |
17990s | a hungry owl cat going into five units |
17993s | on the board |
17995s | wow |
17999s | okay |
18001s | so we now see um just two units getting |
18005s | into the attack right now and uh look at |
18008s | that with the uh Tristana getting the |
18011s | free impact another uh predict gonna be |
18014s | used by Newman oh plus look at this |
18019s | there's gonna be plus |
18021s | HP and the flip Tristana is or plus |
18024s | attack from the side of Newman but of |
18027s | course just uh Justin is going to get |
18029s | flipped and with this whiteboard I'm not |
18031s | optimistic that uh that the chenya is uh |
18035s | the Tenya is not going to be or sorry |
18037s | I'm not optimistic that uh Newman is |
18038s | going to be putting the damage in |
18044s | there we go |
18046s | oh well okay so okay this is going to be |
18049s | a free attack but the favorable traits |
18051s | are gonna be happening over at the side |
18053s | of uh of China like uh even though he's |
18057s | defending there's still some a lot of |
18059s | units that he can put down on his side |
18062s | of the board like um |
18064s | and we might see uh a a more favorable |
18068s | attack over at the next turn right so |
18071s | wow Newman just going in the voices as |
18075s | well this is gonna be a |
18079s | chance for him to just uh keep on |
18082s | dealing damage while also predicting but |
18085s | also controlling what he's going to be |
18087s | drawing next but this is not looking |
18089s | good for uh Newman because over at the |
18091s | next turn he they might get uh |
18093s | overwhelmed as well with the units that |
18096s | uh China is going to be attacking with |
18098s | so |
18100s | um Jordan's in arms it's a tech that |
18102s | he's uh brought in and it it looks like |
18104s | it has been working over at the the |
18107s | previous matches that he did |
18109s | time trick |
18111s | is gonna be used by Newman there you go |
18114s | the tenor of Terror has been drawn out |
18116s | and uh there's gonna be some more damage |
18119s | and impact that's going to be coming out |
18122s | as well and the board one of the borders |
18124s | has been summoned as well |
18126s | so this is go it's looking good for uh |
18130s | new men right now this might be the uh |
18134s | uh the answer for him to block or order |
18137s | to attack uh over at his turn |
18141s | will break though there we go |
18146s | yeah that I mean sorry my audio just got |
18150s | cut off just now but that was a big |
18151s | Chrono break coming in from Newman yeah |
18156s | women just like wants to |
18159s | do like uh to go Toe to Toe with all the |
18162s | units that's appearing on the side of |
18164s | China man |
18166s | yeah so I think like this particular |
18168s | attack just literally ripped Kenya's uh |
18171s | bought apart right and and there's still |
18173s | so many ways that uh Newman could still |
18176s | continue to push in this aggression |
18178s | and a second quarterback Corner break is |
18181s | in his hand as well and I think this is |
18183s | just a really good push coming from |
18184s | Newman |
18185s | it might be over |
18188s | don't be over it might we might see a |
18190s | 2-0 right now with this push oh man |
18194s | maybe this is this is what happened man |
18197s | look with the echo jigs that he's been |
18199s | playing it's really on point and he's |
18201s | been playing it quite well like the |
18204s | Chrono break man this is it this is the |
18207s | final shot and you know China is gonna |
18211s | take it 2-0 straight |
18213s | man I think we're gonna be watching the |
18215s | other match with uh with this early uh |
18218s | finish coming in from Newman |
18220s | yeah I mean that was really fast right |
18222s | first off you got the submira and they |
18224s | just close off the game in like what |
18225s | less than 10 minutes and second one you |
18228s | know he got really well with the predict |
18230s | and get a early Echo and just Chrono |
18233s | breaks after Chrono breaks to just close |
18235s | off the game and that was just really uh |
18237s | fortunate for new men and that was just |
18238s | two fast games and we have our very |
18240s | first grade final it's just like that |
18242s | yeah very fast the grand finalists new |
18246s | men already and you know um the other uh |
18249s | player that we are going to uh possibly |
18252s | spectate is going to be new mint cat I |
18254s | mean sorry midsoft cat and Evie Mana so |
18258s | um with that fast match up oh I I have |
18261s | got to you know I've I've got to |
18264s | empathize with the other players like I |
18267s | was wondering where there was a 2-0 and |
18269s | this is it we just saw it there was a |
18272s | 2-0 because of this Amira face because |
18274s | of the echo Jake's those plays were on |
18277s | point and you know I was thinking maybe |
18280s | uh maybe China would be overwhelming |
18283s | um uh we would be overwhelming Newman |
18285s | with his uh with their units but the |
18287s | Chrono break just broke out uh the uh |
18290s | that win like that's amazing man it's oh |
18294s | do oh definitely well deserved |
18297s | well that's the thing about rally right |
18298s | rally is kind of like a remover by |
18300s | itself so the more you attack it forces |
18303s | your opponent to block more and |
18305s | especially with like units getting |
18306s | bigger and you got big units like Echo |
18308s | and once Echo is level up as well the |
18310s | time trick just did lets you dig further |
18313s | into the deck as well so there are so |
18315s | many options that you could do |
18317s | especially with this um Echo and and |
18319s | there's just limit us at this point in |
18321s | time and that's why this deck is so good |
18323s | and it's still running hot especially in |
18325s | a matter like that yeah I said with that |
18327s | though we're going to be watching |
18329s | another match up here at the semi-finals |
18331s | and uh it's going to be a mid-soft cat |
18335s | versus Evie Mana Evie mana on top |
18337s | midsoft cat at the bottom and it's gonna |
18340s | be another Tristan of flip coming in |
18343s | from the side of Evie man and now this |
18345s | is going to be a mirror match right here |
18347s | uh let's see which one does it better |
18350s | yep I believe right here in this |
18352s | particular matchup whoever have a bigger |
18354s | Tristana or even half a Tristana to |
18356s | begin with is gonna have a upper hand |
18358s | especially in a matchup like that right |
18360s | uh however imadas Nar is a little bit |
18364s | smaller and it can't exactly take out |
18367s | his opponent Nar as well because it's |
18369s | 7-5 with tough and you know that's a |
18371s | little bit of a challenge coming in for |
18373s | Mana to deal with |
18374s | that's right and uh |
18376s | um it may be now look at that uh look at |
18380s | the huge uh Tristana right there |
18383s | 16 foreign as well and considering that |
18387s | um he's just forcing Mana he's just |
18389s | forcing Min soft cat to just get one of |
18392s | his units just get decimated right there |
18395s | and he he goes with the barrier one of |
18397s | the units with barrier for blocking but |
18399s | though that damage is going to be |
18402s | overwhelming right there that's a |
18404s | definite win for |
18407s | EV manner one zero one zero that's you |
18412s | you said it man the one with the bigger |
18414s | Tristana and the earlier gonna gets the |
18417s | win |
18418s | 16 form that's big |
18421s | yeah like you know 16-4 and just having |
18423s | so many other units with uh impact as |
18426s | well like those are the key points that |
18428s | what you want to do with christana right |
18430s | because there's nothing that you could |
18432s | do to actually uh counter react to a |
18434s | impact other than then I believe it's uh |
18438s | quick side right like these are the only |
18440s | cards that could deal with um the the |
18442s | impact so without them there's nothing |
18445s | much that you could do but just absorb |
18446s | all the damage |
18448s | okay and now we're going into the next |
18450s | match it's gonna be EV Mana versus Min |
18454s | soft cat and uh mint soft cat is still |
18456s | going to be using the the Tristana uh |
18460s | deck that they used a while ago and over |
18462s | at Mana it's gonna be as a mirror fish |
18466s | so okay so we're gonna be uh see or |
18469s | we're not sure but it's mostly samiripus |
18472s | basically so um |
18474s | I feel it's still Samir if it's uh sided |
18477s | uh if he goes hard and fast |
18480s | yeah I mean that that's what Samira face |
18482s | is all about right and with the powder |
18484s | pandemonium as well uh he could just |
18486s | start everything it's not the whole |
18488s | engine going as soon as like you know uh |
18491s | turn four or even turn five you're ready |
18493s | to like you know have a four monkey |
18495s | powder pandemonium and that is possible |
18496s | as well so that is you know that's |
18499s | something that his opponent the cat has |
18502s | to be a little bit more wary about but |
18503s | however cat have a really good |
18505s | um you know curve coming in with the uh |
18507s | Grand parfait into Tristana or even into |
18510s | you know all into the Gnar at turn four |
18512s | as well so these are all like you know |
18514s | very good curves that there's something |
18516s | that you know Smith uh Smith's last step |
18518s | is actually uh looking for that's right |
18521s | that's right and yeah you know you know |
18523s | that early attack with the the face oh |
18526s | it's you know with these kinds of decks |
18528s | you would want to go turn by turn like |
18532s | every Nexus damage counts like even |
18535s | though like uh it uh that that face |
18538s | might be vulnerable uh when you if you |
18540s | put it down first uh or maybe countered |
18543s | uh you have to put it but like go on if |
18546s | it doesn't get uh countered then just go |
18548s | straight to the face like and now |
18550s | stylish shot is gonna to be going in |
18553s | towards the Nexus just and that's one of |
18556s | the the more important cards for uh for |
18559s | this type of deck like Silent Shot flare |
18563s | um other pandemonium powder monkey like |
18565s | that's going to those pieces just add up |
18568s | uh to the ultimate uh wind condition |
18571s | which is just uh trying to get down your |
18573s | opponent's uh Health within burn range |
18577s | or yeah like you just keep on burning |
18579s | slowly like we just get we can't say |
18582s | like a |
18583s | can we say that it's like a Slow Burn |
18586s | I don't think it's slow burn right it's |
18588s | just burnt |
18590s | at this point in time right like there's |
18592s | nothing much that you could do you can't |
18594s | really deal with the fish you can't you |
18595s | know Target it with spells as well |
18597s | um you just wait for your death until |
18599s | the powder pandemonium and you know with |
18601s | some mirror there's so many ways that |
18602s | you know she could just take advantage |
18604s | of the flare and just take out your |
18606s | units one by one yeah and it's like when |
18609s | I'm seeing it right now like indeed like |
18612s | um even though this is uh easily |
18615s | targetable it that Target uh it's like |
18618s | you're getting you're gonna get debated |
18620s | with all of the uh all of the easy cards |
18623s | used like there are a lot of a lot of uh |
18626s | burst cards that can't be used to |
18627s | counter and that's that's just going to |
18629s | this decimate the spell that you use to |
18631s | Target that fist but uh from what it |
18634s | looks like right now this is going to be |
18635s | sacrificed for the greater cause uh over |
18638s | at this turn right yeah |
18641s | well I think it's fine for the for the |
18643s | feast to go down right because yeah he |
18646s | could just replay it and just at the |
18647s | same time you know negate as much damage |
18649s | that uh cat is actually trying to do to |
18652s | his Nexus so he's still pretty okay and |
18655s | at the same time you know the uh Samira |
18657s | is so close to leveling up as well so he |
18660s | might want to take advantage of that and |
18661s | just level up this a mirror now and yeah |
18663s | there you have it |
18665s | oh yeah Samira has been leveled up let's |
18668s | see her surf that sword and this is |
18671s | going to be the start of the end if I |
18674s | say so myself we saw it a while ago from |
18677s | Newman and right now seeing it again |
18680s | over at the sign of Evie mana and |
18683s | if I remember correctly moon boy uh |
18686s | Newman also had the uh powder pandemon |
18689s | wait yeah or yeah yeah but no he didn't |
18693s | he wasn't able to use that he didn't |
18694s | even need to use that because of the |
18696s | flipped uh Samira |
18699s | a price fight coming in and there you |
18701s | have a poke to just eliminate the Samara |
18704s | out of the equation as well but at this |
18706s | point in time I believe uh Mana don't |
18708s | really need that some mirror much |
18710s | anymore because like you know the powder |
18712s | pandemonium is ready to fire off as well |
18714s | so yeah so I think once the powder |
18717s | pandemonium is able to stack uh it's |
18720s | gonna be really difficult for uh for cat |
18722s | to actually catch up off this one as |
18723s | well |
18725s | that's right and but the barbed already |
18727s | brought out uh some of the cars it uh I |
18731s | think uh they're gonna be using one of |
18733s | the powder pandemoniums |
18735s | oh goes in with the uh with the stylish |
18738s | uh shot first so I feel that they're |
18741s | going to be using the bull shark and the |
18743s | barbed wire uh the Barb the uh spell |
18746s | right there just to draw out two more |
18748s | fleeting cards it's just going to |
18750s | maximize it |
18752s | yeah Mana is just playing it slow right |
18754s | like we are not going for the powder |
18756s | pandemonium maybe it's not charged up to |
18758s | the required amount that he is actually |
18760s | looking for but he have three copies of |
18762s | it in his hand so there's not much to |
18764s | you know to be worried about at this |
18766s | point in time and you know he's just |
18768s | going in for the attack so forcing the |
18771s | the hour CAT to actually go for the |
18772s | block right here and yeah so just doing |
18775s | two damage to him but Mara is just |
18777s | calculating every single opening or |
18780s | every single damage that he is dealing |
18781s | to his opponent for a powder pandemonium |
18783s | finish |
18785s | right and look at that the flipped uh |
18787s | Fizz right there going up to 3-2 free |
18790s | attack going in and this is gonna be |
18794s | quite exciting for uh Mana as he gets a |
18798s | stylish shot back Tristana is gonna be |
18799s | flipped now this is going to be uh a |
18804s | testament or rather a a read uh your |
18807s | Telegraph is like me on the next turn |
18809s | I'm gonna be possibly opening attack uh |
18812s | but uh we'll see like uh we'll see how |
18814s | he does this like open attack maybe |
18817s | Target oh there you go there's also the |
18819s | battle Commando |
18821s | so this attack token is going to be |
18823s | going to Mid soft cat open attack looks |
18825s | quite likely |
18827s | yeah any monkey business off the Bob uh |
18830s | draw as well so uh I mean this is still |
18832s | fine right 12 damage going in it just |
18834s | sacrifice the fist just do six this turn |
18837s | and |
18838s | we know what's coming right ladies and |
18840s | gentlemen we know what's coming and it |
18842s | is the pandemonium flare into that |
18845s | powder pandemonium and the monkey's just |
18848s | doing his thing |
18853s | it's gonna be coming out right now |
18857s | um I think one two three four five six |
18859s | right six uh six is gonna be coming up |
18863s | uh for the pan uh powder pad the |
18866s | monument what's good about this is that |
18868s | it gives your uh gives the other units |
18870s | uh the opponent's units uh vulnerable as |
18873s | well so this is quite a show if he |
18877s | develops this |
18878s | over at the next turn right uh so |
18881s | over look he just keep on using that and |
18884s | trying to uh remove some of the cards |
18887s | and how much is that it's like going to |
18889s | be one two three four five six seven |
18891s | I think it's gonna be GG next turn |
18894s | yeah definitely I think what Mana is |
18896s | trying to do is just get as much blunt |
18897s | like extra Planet trigger coming in as |
18900s | well three monkey pattern powder |
18902s | pandemonium |
18904s | it I think it's over right probably one |
18906s | firing off |
18909s | yeah pandemonium one here we go two four |
18912s | I think that's four monkeys yeah |
18915s | you know that song uh uh you know that |
18918s | song oh boy |
18922s | [Music] |
18924s | [Laughter] |
18932s | because four monkeys are jumping on the |
18935s | board four damage is going to be jumping |
18937s | on the board yet again five monkeys are |
18940s | gonna get destroyed because they're |
18941s | ephemeral five damage is gonna be coming |
18943s | out next turn it's gonna be GG for uh on |
18946s | evman aside |
18949s | coming in as well there's no healing |
18952s | there's no counter spell the only way is |
18954s | the signage post that uh can't have to |
18957s | dig a little bit deeper for that |
18959s | particular signage Force I'm not even |
18960s | sure that he runs it in his 40 as well |
18962s | but right here man I have that little |
18965s | with that monkey powder pandemonium to |
18967s | just close it off as well stylish shot |
18969s | coming in putting him down to three |
18972s | and a pirouette and another stylish shot |
18975s | I believe you know that is going to be |
18976s | Gigi with just this monkey itself but |
18978s | Mana is just adding oil into this flame |
18981s | and just trying to burn out uh cats you |
18984s | know just playing around the the signage |
18986s | pose yes playing around a possible |
18989s | signage post this is which is a good |
18990s | play right here uh moon boy like this is |
18993s | a smart play he knows that there there |
18995s | might be a chance and with that Shen |
18997s | emote means of cat is going to be bowing |
19000s | out they know what's happening right now |
19002s | they know it's possible that uh that |
19005s | Evie Mana is gonna be finishing him up |
19008s | and you know with the with the monkey |
19011s | and the stylish shot it's gonna be like |
19014s | you know icing it's over right there man |
19018s | any any play that he wants it's gonna be |
19021s | You're Gonna Play it Forward if you're |
19023s | able to play it backward it's gonna come |
19025s | out the same |
19027s | oh there you have another damage on to |
19029s | cat's Nexus and just waiting for the |
19032s | priority to go back to Mana to just go |
19034s | for the stylish shot and we got our |
19037s | second Grand finalist 2-0 going straight |
19039s | to Mana |
19041s | it's like going to be it's going to be |
19043s | Newman versus Mana right now and stylish |
19046s | shot he is going to be going and finish |
19049s | it with a stylish finish for our player |
19054s | amazing amazing play right there coming |
19058s | in from mana and you know Mana just uh |
19061s | Managed IT quite uh well with the with |
19064s | the play even sacrificing the face |
19067s | um developing the Samira developing the |
19070s | fists well that was all calculated |
19072s | because the end game was there right |
19075s | there on his opening hand and those are |
19077s | the two or two powder monkeys right |
19080s | there and he just save it out and well |
19083s | it just went in with the sub mirror fist |
19086s | again winning early man that's how good |
19089s | the deck is yeah like you know that |
19091s | that's what uh how good the deck is how |
19093s | fast the deck is and it's literally a |
19096s | Checkmate deck right it runs off like |
19098s | that and just puts you in a position |
19100s | that you cannot even react to the powder |
19103s | pandemonium yes the spell have to go off |
19105s | yes you have enough blockers but the |
19107s | monkeys the amount of damage that the |
19109s | monkey could ping you is just too fast |
19112s | and we're going into a finals with some |
19114s | mirror Feast is going to be in the |
19116s | lineup of both players so I think we're |
19118s | just going to expect a very fast Grand |
19120s | finals coming in whoever is more |
19123s | aggressive Whoever has the better hand |
19124s | whoever can go the fastest is gonna |
19127s | close off the game and cause a grand |
19129s | champion represent Apec in the world |
19131s | championship |
19131s | yes and they're one yeah one one step |
19134s | closer man mana and new men are already |
19138s | once a closer and they can possibly feel |
19141s | the warmth of the seat right there over |
19143s | at the world's spot man and of course |
19148s | um these guys already in the thousands |
19150s | of dollars in the price right already |
19152s | secured and you're just gonna be getting |
19154s | the bulk share if you do get the top |
19156s | spot and the top of the the most points |
19159s | as well so the Mana and Newman we're |
19163s | going to be seeing them over at the |
19164s | finals and |
19166s | um the the both of these guys are very |
19170s | much carrying the same deck right |
19173s | yep I believe the the matchup is fairly |
19176s | similar right both is pretty aggro and I |
19180s | I think it boils down to |
19182s | top decks at this point in time that's |
19184s | right whoever is going to be drawing the |
19186s | more aggressive hand is gonna be having |
19188s | the advantage in this matchup |
19190s | that's right and uh you know I want to |
19192s | see this happen like uh uh this matchup |
19194s | is uh has been won for the books and |
19197s | we've seen uh our players uh over at the |
19201s | the lower uh port or the lower rounds uh |
19204s | try to battle it out and who came at the |
19206s | top it's going to be Newman and Mana now |
19210s | these players have gone in uh gone in |
19214s | with their players and of course uh we |
19217s | are uh going to give uh the announcement |
19220s | or rather the uh the awards of course to |
19223s | our players mint softcat and Kenya |
19226s | congratulations for moving or getting |
19228s | this far uh you're gonna be bowing out |
19230s | but you uh you try again next time yeah |
19234s | for another open worlds qualifier |
19236s | there's still a lot of spots uh a lot of |
19239s | points to be gotten over at the next |
19241s | chances and uh yeah let's um with that I |
19244s | think we're going to be going for a |
19247s | short break right and when we come back |
19249s | it's going to be the finals Newman |
19252s | versus Mana over the chat just uh |
19255s | support your play right there and when |
19257s | we come back more of the action see you |
19259s | soon |

20127s | welcome back to the Apec Rose qualifier |
20131s | my name is moon boy I'm joined by |
20133s | excelsiorph and we are down to our grand |
20136s | finals and we're we're constantly a |
20140s | whole afternoon of games so far and what |
20143s | do you expect coming in into the Grand |
20144s | Final Excelsior you know into the very |
20147s | finals right now I'm expecting a lot of |
20150s | action um it's since a lot of these |
20152s | players or these two Evie mana and uh |
20155s | Newman have went in with a 2-0 I'm not |
20158s | expecting a 2-0 right now like you're |
20160s | spending a 2-1 between the two at best |
20162s | right because uh they're gonna be |
20164s | butting here so it's going to be going |
20166s | to be uh doing the same uh same style of |
20169s | play as we have seen uh in uh in our |
20172s | previous cast and it seems like these |
20175s | guys are really operated they're not |
20178s | even the top seed like as you can see |
20181s | right now Evie Mana is seed number 12 |
20183s | Newman is c35 so basically once you get |
20187s | to the top uh stop 64 you have a chance |
20191s | to get to the top and these two are a |
20193s | testament to this fact |
20195s | yeah and and not just all about the |
20197s | seating right even the seat 64 actually |
20200s | beats it one in in round of 64 as well |
20202s | so you know that's when it comes to a |
20204s | tournament like this there's so much uh |
20206s | question mark or so much you know |
20208s | unknown coming into this as well so you |
20211s | know it's all down to what are you |
20213s | comfortable with and how well are you |
20215s | piloting it and how well can you disrupt |
20217s | your opponent with so you know we're |
20218s | down to our final two players let's just |
20220s | see what I what will they be playing for |
20222s | uh after the for this Grand finals yeah |
20226s | so again let's look at their decks it's |
20228s | going to be the for Newman it's going to |
20230s | be Echo Jinx some mirror Fizz and |
20234s | it's amazing right both of these guys |
20236s | are carrying Karma set |
20239s | okay how about the Amana moon boy well |
20244s | from Mana site you know it's all three |
20245s | of the best deck in the format right now |
20247s | Samira fist Tristana uh Teemo and Nar |
20251s | and you know follow up by ikama said as |
20254s | well so you know this particular matchup |
20256s | I am expecting a double comma band once |
20259s | again it's all gonna be you know all out |
20261s | aggressiveness who is going to come up |
20263s | on top we saw a new man actually deal |
20265s | with this particular lineup that men I |
20267s | have in the previous round in the |
20269s | semifinals so will this Echo uh Echo |
20272s | Jinx actually pay dividend to Newman in |
20274s | the grand finals as well |
20276s | yeah and if you if I were to Target this |
20278s | well uh between these two in terms of |
20281s | band it's still going to be Karma set |
20283s | right uh I feel uh it's gonna be uh it's |
20287s | gonna be a toss-up uh in terms of the |
20290s | matchup uh we're doing uh with uh Echo |
20293s | uh Echo Jinx versus Tristana |
20297s | well as I've seen before uh Tristana |
20300s | versus Echo Jinx uh it can go more |
20303s | towards that was just an attack so that |
20304s | may be |
20305s | um |
20306s | yeah it may be a Target but uh the most |
20309s | plausible Target right here is uh since |
20312s | most of the matches go towards like a |
20314s | turn 10-ish |
20316s | return six to seven and with the removal |
20320s | potential of a Karma set deck yeah I |
20323s | would like to remove that please |
20325s | yeah you don't want the commas that |
20327s | actually deal with your game plan and |
20329s | and you know and you don't and at the |
20330s | same time right these two uh the other |
20333s | two decks don't really want to go to uh |
20335s | turn ten as well so they want to just |
20336s | finish it off by turn number six or |
20338s | eight six to eight and that's about the |
20340s | Comfort Range that you know the other |
20342s | four decks are capable of finishing off |
20344s | the game with let's just take a look at |
20345s | the 40 cards coming in from Newman and |
20347s | see what exactly uh are the content of |
20351s | this tree deck that new man is actually |
20352s | uh carrying into the grand finals |
20355s | and let's look at the deck of Newman |
20357s | right now and you can see uh the predict |
20360s | Echo Jinx over at the left uh and over |
20363s | at the middle you can see there's a |
20364s | mirror fist uh lineup and of course over |
20366s | at the rice Karma set now you can see |
20369s | over at the left you can see Echo Jinx |
20371s | has a lot of the predicts but also has |
20374s | some um Provisions for spot removals you |
20377s | have the the Mystic shot right there and |
20380s | you have Aftershock right so that would |
20382s | also be a good removable let's not take |
20384s | out the fact that there's quicksand |
20385s | right there that could have possibly |
20387s | remove the the keywords the positive |
20390s | keywords that uh may be used by our by |
20393s | the opponent plus the uh the right of |
20395s | negation for uh other uh the Niles so |
20399s | all in all the whole uh generation of uh |
20403s | the the power from this deck is from the |
20406s | predict plus the spot removals and maybe |
20408s | down the line you can go on with the |
20411s | Chrono break if uh when your uh Echo is |
20414s | already flipped as well so um can you um |
20417s | work us down at the the Samira fish |
20419s | right there well yeah this is a very uh |
20422s | straightforward kind of deck right get |
20424s | as much plunder uh triggers as early as |
20426s | possible and just finish off with powder |
20428s | pandemonium for your planet triggers |
20430s | you've got things like a jaggered |
20431s | butcher all out you know you have things |
20434s | like uh father's Fury you got Monkey |
20437s | Business you got uh what Inferno like |
20440s | like these are above chains these are |
20443s | all very like cuts that actually |
20445s | triggers it really easily as well so |
20447s | that this way you can just apply early |
20448s | pressure just get those uh triggers in |
20451s | plunder and that means that you're |
20452s | pinging your opponent every single turn |
20453s | as well and just finishing off with |
20455s | powder pandemonium with a you know full |
20457s | stack of monkeys at six or six monkeys |
20460s | right a full bench right that's |
20461s | basically six damage to your opponent |
20463s | um just like that with with no questions |
20465s | uh so for five Mana you get six units |
20468s | and six damage straight to your |
20469s | opponent's Nexus that's just a broken |
20472s | card in general |
20473s | yeah that's gonna be a really good setup |
20476s | right there but over at the side of uh |
20479s | Newman uh Newman's uh deck over at the |
20482s | right with the karma set have you seen |
20484s | this like you basically have to uh try |
20486s | to remove as many uh units uh from your |
20489s | opponent's side as possible and if |
20491s | you're going to be facing like a small |
20493s | units uh especially like for example uh |
20495s | for from the Vandal decks |
20497s | um you would you would see that it would |
20499s | be basically remove straight from |
20502s | Straight From The Mystic shot a high |
20505s | note any other removable tools would |
20507s | also be good or any delaying tools like |
20509s | a gossip Palm would also be helpful and |
20512s | let's not uh forget Karma once already |
20516s | at the 10 Mana stage will get |
20519s | enlightened and you will be able to uh |
20521s | summon your spells twice right and you |
20524s | said well the coin is your favorite uh |
20526s | card right there uh boy coin is |
20529s | definitely going to be helpful |
20530s | especially with the double proc of a |
20532s | coin that's basically really a a |
20535s | replenish your whole Mana uh pool right |
20539s | there where the the use of the coin with |
20541s | Karma |
20542s | for sure right and stack together with |
20544s | place your bets you're basically drawing |
20546s | what four four Cuts with additional four |
20550s | more coins as well so there's so much |
20552s | value involving like all this uh you |
20555s | know Karma Synergy when she's |
20556s | enlightened and and that's basically |
20558s | what this deck is all about let's just |
20560s | take a look at what his opponent's 40 |
20562s | card is uh for this Grand finals as well |
20565s | for MATA right we are seeing a fairly um |
20568s | similar right comma set list on the |
20571s | right side as well but uh something |
20573s | interesting is the tasty Faith inclusion |
20574s | of the tasty faithful best iron disciple |
20577s | and uh like you know this uh and yeah |
20581s | and these are like the difference when |
20582s | it comes to |
20584s | um the the karma set deck that Mana is |
20586s | actually bringing onto the table this |
20588s | weekend |
20589s | yeah I do like uh the inclusion of the |
20591s | bus time disciples deck right there |
20592s | makes you look like a remember Sushi |
20596s | like uh you just keep on like cycling up |
20600s | your deck with that uh or that that we |
20603s | saw that that's sometimes uh that the |
20605s | the karma set deck just runs out of gas |
20608s | and this might be the answer for it too |
20611s | and um again with the uh with the Samira |
20615s | Fizz fairly straightforward Tristana I'm |
20619s | not seeing any uh different right here |
20623s | you know I I would have wanted to see |
20625s | like uh the illawi Tristana variant but |
20627s | no I feel uh our Pros feel it's a bit |
20630s | underpowered so maybe this is again the |
20633s | uh the the best way to go considering |
20636s | the two of the decks are both pristana |
20639s | uh Nar decks right it's uh and yeah it's |
20643s | it's really that powerful guys and this |
20646s | um are both guys carrying Teemo as well |
20648s | uh-huh all right so that means that |
20651s | Teemo is uh one of your early uh early |
20654s | early damages right there because of the |
20656s | one off you know you're not even |
20658s | um like banking on the the puff caps the |
20661s | buff gaps are like nice to have or nice |
20663s | to attack right it's they're not really |
20665s | your win condition right there but uh an |
20667s | early team over the uh with the with the |
20669s | uh elusive is also a helpful tool to get |
20673s | in to get the damage into your |
20674s | opponent's Nexus yep and not just that |
20677s | right you add one stack onto Tristana as |
20679s | well so as soon as first one you already |
20681s | got a first stack onto Tristana so you |
20683s | know the inclusion of Teemo is something |
20685s | that I like and and that's something |
20687s | that you know I would support because |
20688s | you know Teemo why not and yeah but |
20691s | however I think you know one copy of |
20692s | heavy metal and moving you know usually |
20695s | people run two in their deck list and |
20697s | moving the extra copy of heavy metal |
20699s | down to this uh like removing it to have |
20702s | another slot for bustling signpost and |
20704s | that's a really good counter to things |
20706s | like powder pandemonium which would |
20708s | ultimately you know allow you to turn |
20709s | this game around yeah apologies like I |
20712s | got mixed up with the Tristan I was |
20713s | thinking about Nora a while ago yeah |
20716s | like yeah no Nora no Nora love for this |
20720s | tournament guys I have not seen Nora |
20722s | press it just because of its |
20723s | inconsistency in terms of the draws and |
20726s | uh and the portals as well nobody wants |
20728s | to bank on Nora oh man I wanted was it |
20731s | Nora to uh to be seen on this tournament |
20734s | but yeah Tristana Takes the Cake uh and |
20738s | of course the pie as well but uh in |
20741s | terms of the Bands |
20743s | still Karma said what do you think man |
20745s | yeah I I I'm going with you know double |
20748s | cover set |
20749s | um those are the two Decks that both |
20751s | players don't really want to deal with |
20753s | because it's kind of like a Checkmate |
20754s | scenario kind of deck you don't really |
20756s | want to leave the grand finals down to |
20758s | this kind of play style and you know |
20760s | just play the two aggro decks and just |
20761s | just whack it all out yeah and uh |
20765s | talking about bringing it all out and |
20766s | these guys are fighting for the Lion |
20769s | Share I want to see uh how much uh |
20772s | they're going to be fighting for like I |
20774s | remember like five thousand dollars yes |
20777s | five thousand dollars and 18 runetera |
20780s | points they end of course the coveted |
20783s | worlds invite but these guys are already |
20787s | you know already with 2 500 USD so |
20791s | basically this win is a double up right |
20795s | that's a lot that's life-changing money |
20797s | right there uh moon boy no it's not just |
20799s | a double up right but a seat in walls as |
20802s | well they invite into world's |
20804s | championship and you know that's |
20806s | something that the additional 2 500 |
20808s | could not buy you or any amount could |
20811s | buy you because you have to earn your |
20813s | spot in walls and yes you are two |
20815s | thousand five hundred dollars richer and |
20817s | you even get a wolf's invite because |
20819s | this Championship is dead uh it's it's |
20821s | just that juicy and you know these two |
20824s | players are down to the wire and and |
20825s | whoever is gonna win this one will have |
20828s | their ticket to vote just with one more |
20830s | win two like you know one more set of |
20832s | win and you're off the walls and if you |
20835s | get to the world's uh Two Worlds you |
20837s | will have that you know into your very |
20839s | own player profile right you would add |
20841s | add like invited to Worlds yeah have you |
20844s | done that no you didn't know well yeah |
20849s | just me I just I just earned it right |
20851s | from the world's qualifier and uh um I |
20854s | feel that our players are really uh |
20857s | vying for the spot and let's go into oh |
20861s | let's go in of course I'm gonna |
20863s | speculate again more as to you know what |
20866s | else can these guys uh go in like if you |
20870s | do not get your spot right now there are |
20873s | a lot of other qualifiers or a lot of |
20875s | other tournaments to get your points |
20876s | right uh moon boy as we have seen over |
20879s | at the in uh at the game like there are |
20882s | many uh chances for you to get some uh |
20884s | more points |
20886s | yeah like you know there's not just you |
20888s | know the last chance qualifiers there's |
20889s | the Frontera opened every season as well |
20891s | there is your weekly Gauntlet like these |
20893s | are the ways that you guys could still |
20895s | earn points to earn yourself a slot in |
20897s | Worlds and you know I believe the top |
20899s | four players if I'm not wrong will be |
20900s | qualifying |
20902s | um as well so you know don't do not |
20904s | waste any opportunity if you guys really |
20906s | want to get your tickets to Worlds these |
20908s | are the ways to actually go through get |
20910s | your runtera points up and and just you |
20913s | know qualify your way via the point |
20915s | system or else you know you could just |
20917s | join the subsequent uh World qualifiers |
20919s | again and the Champions will be seated |
20921s | towards as well yeah it's amazing that |
20924s | we got to get to see our community the |
20926s | whole Apec region uh already uh going in |
20930s | and uh being competitive as well |
20932s | thousands of players buying for this |
20934s | spot and now we have seen Newman and our |
20938s | competitor uh what what's the name again |
20940s | it is Mana TV Mana yeah you know that's |
20944s | like when you pick a name uh it means |
20946s | like uh like uh with the manners like |
20949s | you say I should play I should play |
20951s | Karma Seth because |
20955s | my name is Mana I should play Karma set |
20957s | and I feel that uh it uh It Is by |
20960s | default that uh he has to play that |
20962s | because the Mana because he is Mana yes |
20966s | but you know new men definitely with |
20968s | this name new man definitely not new to |
20970s | Lor considering that the way he plays oh |
20974s | that's that's not that's clean all of |
20977s | these uh players just played it clean |
20979s | and I've seen uh no way out like uh like |
20982s | no questionable Place between our two |
20985s | top finalists moon boy |
20987s | yeah so oh Jing's Echo is Ben in this |
20991s | matchup from what I heard |
20992s | and comma set from EV Mana has been |
20995s | banned as well so we're seeing we are |
20997s | going to be seeing one of the karma set |
20999s | being played right here so it's gonna be |
21001s | some mirror comma set going up against |
21003s | Samir of this and the yodels uh who do |
21006s | you think is going to come on top based |
21008s | on this draft Excel sir you know the one |
21010s | who banned out Karma said is gonna be |
21015s | uh who didn't burn out Karma said is uh |
21019s | at a disadvantage |
21020s | yeah |
21021s | so oh so that oh man I didn't ban Karma |
21025s | said okay he's gonna be climbing up a |
21027s | hill it's gonna be tough right |
21028s | disadvantage definitely not gonna win it |
21031s | not uh not a not not how they say I'm |
21035s | not saying that it's definitely that |
21037s | he's not gonna win there is still a |
21038s | chance that's why we have those uh |
21040s | there's percentage counters as you have |
21042s | said like if I remember correctly you uh |
21044s | you said it was around 40 uh 40 win rate |
21048s | with that match up so it's still |
21050s | possible but it's still uh tough sales |
21052s | to fly uh for a Mana yeah for sure right |
21055s | and I believe you know before the whole |
21058s | band and pick is actually selected uh I |
21061s | actually believe in my in my mind I was |
21064s | like you know the the Jinx and Echo is |
21066s | gonna be the deck that's gonna be |
21068s | winning him the championship but you |
21070s | know with it being Ben |
21072s | things have changed right as and the |
21074s | game plan is going to be changed right |
21076s | here and how well is this common set is |
21078s | going to perform under his control and |
21081s | you know with the camera set available |
21082s | for him for his uh disposal how is he |
21085s | going to deal with the aggression that |
21086s | you know uh this and submits uh Samira |
21089s | is going to be throwing at him as well |
21091s | because those are pure aggression it's |
21093s | just so aggressive right that the karma |
21095s | said might not be able to handle in the |
21097s | early game yeah if he doesn't able if |
21100s | there it all depends how to draw as well |
21101s | like if your karma said like your |
21103s | removals have to be drawn out early uh |
21105s | draws uh draw potential has to be uh on |
21109s | point as well so if you do have that uh |
21112s | you if you have the removal uh tools and |
21115s | if the uh if your opponent's units |
21117s | they'll go out of range like more units |
21119s | than the removable tools then you're |
21121s | gonna be over well that's gonna be it |
21122s | like not the keyword over realm they're |
21124s | going to be overwhelmed in terms of |
21125s | units right so |
21127s | um that's going to be your win condition |
21128s | right there so it's gonna be definitely |
21131s | possible that that might happen but uh |
21133s | there's a threshold like around eight to |
21136s | turn seven to ten uh if you're still not |
21139s | winning with the deck you're going |
21140s | against Karma uh Karma said then you're |
21143s | probably losing losing yeah yeah |
21146s | yeah like as long as karma reached 10 10 |
21149s | right you're losing that's it that's |
21151s | basically the Baseline especially if |
21153s | you're playing against uh you're playing |
21155s | two very aggressive deck like Tristana |
21158s | and uh Samira so if you are if you are |
21161s | not finishing the game by turn 10 you're |
21163s | finished that's it an end of story |
21166s | that's right that's right and now of |
21168s | course uh I want to see if these players |
21170s | are ready like they're really preparing |
21172s | really hard for uh the this files man |
21175s | and uh for those of you over at the |
21178s | community I mean we would like to thank |
21180s | you for just keep uh keeping on joining |
21182s | and supporting the community as well and |
21185s | uh there's gonna be also impact or APAC |
21188s | playoffs or sorry words qualifier |
21191s | playoffs if you need to be happening |
21193s | after our own stream so just uh make |
21195s | sure to watch out for that and it's |
21197s | going to be for emea so it's for Emma |
21200s | right there you're gonna be uh watching |
21202s | the action right there for the other |
21204s | region this like I'm I'm pretty sure |
21206s | whoever is going to be wearing this uh |
21210s | this uh seat must watch that because |
21213s | that's where you know uh your uh your |
21215s | opponent is gonna be coming from like uh |
21217s | you have to watch these tournaments just |
21220s | to get the Intel as to what the other |
21222s | regions are playing and if it's uh going |
21224s | to be competitive uh versus a back we |
21227s | are Apec Regents um you know our |
21228s | Representatives |
21230s | yeah and not just that right like this |
21232s | Apex stream is the very first stream for |
21234s | the whole world qualifier Series right |
21235s | after this we got emea and then we have |
21237s | Americas but the thing is that |
21240s | um you know the first stream is really |
21241s | impactful because this will it uh affect |
21244s | what the Europeans will play later on |
21246s | right so ladies and gentlemen without |
21248s | further Ado let's just go straight right |
21250s | into the grand finals right here with |
21253s | Mana going up against Newman |
21255s | that's right manner on the bottom a |
21257s | Newman at the top and now we're seeing |
21260s | Mana where the Tristana deck and Newman |
21264s | overtap top looks like it's going to be |
21266s | using a some mirror Fizz it's gonna be a |
21270s | almost full out Mulligan and the Silent |
21273s | Shot has been drawn out only the |
21274s | Elegance Edge elegant Edge has been |
21277s | drawn out from Newman's side now he is |
21280s | probably going to be summoning that over |
21281s | a third two when his attack goes but wow |
21285s | I can I'm not sure I I'm pretty sure |
21288s | three of the cards over at Mana side is |
21290s | going to be Mulligan dubbed yeah for |
21293s | sure right the pie toss is definitely |
21294s | the cut that he wants to keep right here |
21296s | but based on statistics right they face |
21298s | Samira only have a four estimate about |
21301s | you know 47.33 it's not a winnable but |
21305s | it all boils down to what kind of hand |
21307s | his opponent is currently having and |
21309s | looking at Mana sand right now yes he |
21312s | does have a little bit of early |
21313s | aggression as well but the style is shot |
21315s | into the us into the elegant Edge it's |
21319s | going to be doing three damage right |
21320s | just turn two full damage down onto the |
21322s | Nexus as well Newman have to start do |
21325s | piling up this aggression coming in |
21328s | five six damage moving in just on turn |
21331s | two Newman is not stepping on the brick |
21334s | at any point in time oh man human is not |
21338s | really messing around with the early |
21341s | all-out right there and he knows that he |
21344s | may be going in for an uh an early |
21348s | powder pandemonium as you can see right |
21351s | there there is already another powder |
21353s | monkey that may be coming out another |
21355s | stylish shot and you know he has the |
21358s | tools to possibly stop some um |
21361s | overwhelming or rather bored presence |
21363s | that will be coming in from mana's side |
21366s | and the wandering Shepherd is gonna be |
21368s | uh summoned out and it's gonna be |
21370s | equipped oh it's gonna go out with the |
21372s | 3-3 I think it is a pot it's a are part |
21375s | of pain I think it's about pain yeah a |
21377s | lot of pain yep but I think he needs it |
21379s | right he needs that tree damage right he |
21381s | needs to uh have those fearsome blockers |
21384s | coming in but immediately going in for |
21386s | the Piro wet as well just stunning the |
21388s | tree tree not allowing it to do too much |
21390s | looking at his hand right now there's |
21391s | only other another Shepherd that he |
21393s | could play and hopefully hits into a |
21395s | weapon that he could use it as well yes |
21397s | the fish rack and the upcycle rack that |
21399s | could potentially uh stop this tree too |
21402s | from doing its business and you know |
21404s | Newman who still go for the monkey's |
21406s | business |
21406s | and just continuing doing all this |
21408s | pressure as well is as soon as turn four |
21410s | is already at 12 health |
21412s | that's right and now of course human |
21414s | it's just you want to keep on developing |
21416s | he's gonna go in and get that uh 401 uh |
21419s | wandering Shepherd right there and |
21420s | another hungry uh alcat and this looks |
21424s | like a another a favorable trade now |
21426s | he's gonna be preventing one uh two |
21429s | damage but he's gonna get one damage in |
21431s | the process so another activation is |
21433s | gonna be right there Barbed might be |
21436s | used right so uh the The Bard card might |
21439s | be used to get some more fleeting cards |
21441s | a bar chain and this you know there's a |
21445s | plan and human sees it the plan is going |
21448s | to be coming out with a possible powder |
21451s | pandemonium |
21452s | oh there you go |
21455s | what |
21456s | uh I mean that's what like what four |
21459s | four triggers so far right yeah yeah |
21461s | we're seeing about four triggers so far |
21463s | and meta is just going on the offense |
21465s | you have to start you know going in for |
21467s | the offense and start doing those damage |
21469s | but Newman have that four slots |
21471s | available for that four powder uh for |
21473s | that pandemonium to actually trigger off |
21475s | as well so more powder monkey more |
21477s | damage and and you know the rest is just |
21479s | math at this point in time powder |
21482s | pandemonium one shooting in and you know |
21484s | Mana has no choice but this is not a |
21487s | good attack for him |
21488s | yes this is gonna be not a good attack |
21491s | because there's gonna be some favorite |
21492s | favorable trades still for the side of |
21495s | uh of Newman those those uh those powder |
21500s | monkeys are dispensable like he's not he |
21503s | doesn't even need to go in and uh and uh |
21508s | to go in and uh preserve those powder |
21510s | monkeys because they're gonna |
21512s | they're just gonna die at the end of the |
21514s | terminal but another powder monkey is |
21516s | gonna be cleaning it out I feel |
21519s | this is uh the new Newman is running on |
21523s | a clock and he's going |
21525s | straight on 100 like 100 200 miles per |
21529s | hour another run whoa this is it he |
21534s | knows he's gonna get it 1-0 straight up |
21536s | right here at the first game I believe |
21539s | this is over right powder pandemonium |
21541s | and just going in for the full swing |
21544s | um and that's five damage coming in from |
21546s | from um the monkeys itself Samira having |
21549s | the flare and and this just came over by |
21552s | next |
21553s | right there just one damage burst and |
21556s | sgg yes that's it that's it and there's |
21560s | nothing that can stop Newman right now |
21562s | because Newman |
21564s | is just oh warning shot |
21569s | warning shot is that no |
21572s | [Laughter] |
21574s | that's not a warning shot dude like oh |
21578s | there's some Surplus right there coming |
21581s | in from the side of Newman like warning |
21584s | shot flare you know he double |
21586s | pandemonium inconsequent turns like he |
21590s | has it planned he knows |
21592s | he knows man what does he know that we |
21594s | don't know man he knows |
21598s | he knows he knows he's one step closer |
21601s | to getting the five thousand dollars |
21602s | he's one step closer and going towards |
21604s | now there we go ladies and gentlemen |
21606s | game two is ready let's just dive right |
21609s | into it Newman 1-0 lead comma set going |
21612s | up against christana from Mana could he |
21616s | keep this up high note in this opening |
21618s | hand as well that might be the card that |
21620s | he is looking for but it is there more |
21622s | control cars that he needs to to |
21624s | actually even out this game plan |
21626s | that's right that's right and then he |
21628s | needs more of the control cards and |
21630s | Aftershock is gonna be out and about so |
21633s | you know a lot of tools coming in from |
21635s | the side high note is going to be the |
21637s | perfect card to remove that Vandal |
21640s | Commando and now Evie Mana is gonna be |
21644s | going commando with no uh with no unit |
21646s | remaining on his side of the board |
21649s | all right Acorn coming down and that's a |
21652s | very good counter to the Commando yes |
21654s | the acorn might not need to hit any |
21656s | Targets but it's a very good blocker |
21658s | against this uh Commando that that you |
21661s | know Mana actually wants to get this |
21662s | value out of this our cats as well and |
21664s | now coming down on turn four but Newman |
21666s | has that perfect answer with that |
21668s | Aftershock so man I have to respect it |
21670s | as well and not playing it on turn four |
21673s | that's right that Nar is not gonna be |
21676s | played but now of course Newman is gonna |
21679s | be on the back panel uh considering that |
21682s | oh wow the acorn is going to be targeted |
21685s | right now that means uh they they're |
21688s | recognizing though you know uh they're |
21690s | recognizing that it is indeed a threat |
21692s | but grandfather pay uh is gonna be uh |
21695s | going down as well with that trade one |
21699s | more alcat hungry alcat is going to be |
21701s | summoned as well now Newman is on his |
21703s | side is also developing some more alcats |
21706s | so more um more value so you can see |
21710s | that they're trying to defend with the |
21713s | uh with the champ blockers right here |
21716s | yeah yeah and Newman actually have an |
21719s | acorn in his hand as well so that is a |
21720s | possible way or possible answer to |
21723s | actually deal with uh mana's Commando |
21725s | once again and there's not much you know |
21727s | uh removals in his hand as well and |
21729s | Newman dropping down a One Drop Distance |
21731s | could just pass the priority over to man |
21734s | I'm saying like you know what you're |
21735s | gonna do uh I'm just playing a playing |
21738s | it slow and just you know taking my time |
21741s | but take your time because that is the |
21744s | win condition of Newman right now taking |
21747s | his time in acorn the hex technician is |
21749s | going to be put down I'll cancel the |
21752s | play also for the side of uh Mana is to |
21756s | just keep on developing augmented |
21758s | clocking is gonna give some choices to |
21761s | Newman and let's see which one he is |
21763s | going to be picking out |
21765s | I believe I saw a deny their place your |
21767s | bets and oh it's just flash it's like |
21769s | you know and tag out yeah I mean this |
21772s | this flash just passed my memory right |
21774s | there |
21775s | yeah |
21777s | is that is it a memory flash card game |
21780s | yeah it's a Memory yeah but tag out is |
21783s | just important right especially things |
21784s | like yup pythos and things like that and |
21787s | and stop decking stop decking the uh do |
21791s | you want to everything like that's just |
21793s | yeah that's just |
21798s | units are like small and like you know |
21800s | really really frail as well so stack |
21803s | together with karma that's just two |
21804s | units to everything and and you know |
21806s | Newman is just looking great he just |
21808s | needs to survive four more turns and the |
21809s | karma is online |
21811s | yeah that's right that's right and you |
21812s | know that uh that caustic riff uh that |
21815s | use whatever everything is indeed |
21816s | important and considering that the |
21819s | um the hungry alcats will be surviving |
21821s | that and look at this man the Lord |
21828s | After Shock right immediately removing |
21831s | it and a a price fight coming in trying |
21834s | to remove uh try to get a little bit of |
21836s | Advantage like getting that poke stick |
21837s | and just you know putting it to good use |
21839s | just drawing himself one more card and |
21841s | just dealing one more damage to these |
21842s | two one |
21843s | you know like I don't want to buy that |
21845s | skin though just to change the uh the |
21848s | animation or the the hard art the Pokey |
21850s | stick and look at this oh wow okay he's |
21853s | gonna be drawing out uh the mayor right |
21856s | there and uh the there's gonna be one |
21858s | destruction |
21860s | coming in for the pie toss second after |
21862s | the shot oh they're they're just going |
21864s | at it man okay you kill one of mine I'm |
21867s | gonna kill one of yours you kill one of |
21868s | mine okay one of yours they're just |
21870s | going back and forth and this is how it |
21872s | goes it's like it's still on the favor |
21874s | of uh of Newman if he goes onto the to |
21878s | the later rounds but I can see a lot of |
21881s | possible uses from the side of Mana he |
21883s | can also |
21885s | um generate some more cards uh with the |
21887s | mayor but here's the thing right um |
21890s | Newman is running low on gas there's |
21892s | only three more Cuts in hand and there's |
21894s | only three more units and he's drawing a |
21896s | lot of units in the early turn and that |
21898s | also means that you know he's running |
21899s | low on units himself as well so he might |
21902s | have to be forced to play the karma here |
21904s | on turn five just to get himself on turn |
21908s | seventh just to get himself an |
21909s | additional |
21911s | um you know spell so that he could |
21913s | survive a little bit longer in this in |
21914s | this back and forth |
21916s | that's right then this this might be the |
21918s | you're right definitely right you would |
21920s | want to get uh more of the the choices |
21923s | and that he has been pushed back into a |
21926s | corner and what's good about this is |
21928s | that um there are there is a possible uh |
21931s | you know there's a possibility that |
21933s | there may be some answers with the prize |
21935s | fight and a possible pie toss down the |
21937s | line so I think a grandfather hey might |
21941s | be the chance he does the choice here |
21943s | like get one grand better pay get |
21945s | another um real cat right and uh you |
21949s | know just keep on developing right there |
21951s | that would be the choice and put down of |
21954s | course your very own Teemo he already |
21956s | Drew out the team I was kind of afraid |
21959s | that it would get countered by Acorn and |
21961s | take note guys that was the third a |
21963s | chord that has been uh summoned by |
21966s | Newman and let's not take out the fact |
21968s | that he has a deal one uh spell right |
21971s | there that's gonna be uh also his uh Ace |
21974s | up his sleeve just in case |
21977s | um it all comes down to the the best |
21979s | possible moment to use the cost of Riff |
21981s | yep but he put a patent on that Teemo so |
21984s | this way you know there's the Teemo is |
21985s | gonna be uh surviving that Cosmic Rave |
21988s | and a high note though that's answer to |
21990s | the Teemo immediately off the top as |
21991s | well so uh but Mata managed he managed |
21994s | to get that sharp bait or like that that |
21996s | sixth Mana shortcut you still shut yodel |
21999s | in his hand as well so that could |
22001s | potentially give him a sharp proof to to |
22004s | you know go for a stronger push a sharp |
22006s | trainer sorry to go for a stronger push |
22008s | uh on the offense because right here uh |
22011s | Mana is going closer to the uh 10 Mana |
22014s | range yeah and Newman is slowly running |
22016s | out of gas this is the time for Mana to |
22018s | actually go for the strike and just do |
22020s | as much as possible to disrupt Newman's |
22023s | control |
22024s | yes disrupting humans control is gonna |
22027s | be the the uh the game right here and |
22030s | that shark trainer is going to be like |
22032s | not going to be used there's not enough |
22034s | space at the moment and not even enough |
22036s | space as well for a tenor of Terror |
22039s | right so maybe a vandal Gunners will |
22042s | also be uh possibly used there you go |
22045s | bandal Gunners is going to be uh used |
22047s | right here let's see how Newman will be |
22050s | answering this aboard and pinku's call |
22053s | is gonna be used |
22056s | all right set and hex a liberator like |
22059s | that's a good cut off the top stack top |
22061s | deck as well |
22062s | um I believe the Teemo is getting high |
22064s | noted like you know no questions asked |
22066s | and this is just going to be a one is |
22068s | the one block right here and you know uh |
22070s | Newman have to try to take out the Bando |
22072s | Gunner and maybe maybe putting the our |
22075s | cat in front of the battle Gunner might |
22077s | be the uh better option right here |
22080s | yeah |
22081s | um I yeah I definitely would agree like |
22083s | the Vandal uh oh |
22085s | oh okay I think um |
22089s | yeah I think the bundle uh the the uh |
22092s | the Vandal Gunner would have been placed |
22094s | with the hungry alcat for the defense |
22096s | just to make sure it gets removed |
22098s | oh tag out oh oh nice |
22102s | play all right all right amazing play |
22106s | right there from Human protecting his |
22108s | own Karma |
22110s | uh that's a huge takeout coming in from |
22113s | new man just protecting the karma |
22114s | himself yes the karma is a important |
22117s | piece of the puzzle and you don't want |
22119s | her to go down so early into the game as |
22121s | well as we are moving straight right to |
22123s | turn number nine and no set inside still |
22126s | Newman really have to start digging he |
22128s | needs those draw spells he runs uh I |
22130s | think I believe it's formula and also uh |
22134s | High bed as well face your bets as well |
22136s | so you know these are the cards that he |
22138s | is looking out for because right here |
22139s | this hand is not looking good for Newman |
22142s | nah definitely not looking good for a |
22144s | Newman and now of course the mixologist |
22145s | is going to be coming down to oh oh |
22149s | okay okay he goes for it it's |
22153s | obliterated and he doesn't need any more |
22155s | any other spells because next turn man |
22158s | it's gonna be a caustic Rift double |
22160s | double prop and it's gonna destroy the |
22162s | hungry owl the hungry uh owl cat and the |
22166s | grandfather thing and if if if and when |
22168s | Evie Mana develops into a possible |
22171s | Terror of Terror it's also going to |
22172s | destroy to get destroyed as well so it's |
22175s | looking really good for Newman as the |
22178s | next turn is going to be tender he |
22179s | doesn't even need to attack right now |
22181s | yeah it's just value right at this point |
22183s | in time it's just value for Newman as |
22185s | long as it's at 10 Mana things is going |
22187s | to be in his favor and Mana is |
22190s | definitely going to be greedy right he |
22191s | have to develop the tenor right here and |
22194s | and uh mix lodges is definitely going to |
22196s | be the answer coming in for Newman and |
22199s | it all boils down to the top deck if |
22200s | it's a draw engine it's gonna be working |
22202s | place your best on the door |
22205s | oh |
22208s | at this point |
22211s | [Music] |
22212s | two draw two again it's wrong |
22219s | one more comma one one more |
22224s | oh man coins again double proc oh my |
22228s | gosh |
22231s | caustic Rift |
22233s | what are you gonna do this is the |
22236s | problem about camera set as long as it's |
22238s | 11 it's a 10 minute there's no going |
22241s | back it's checkmate at this point in |
22243s | time |
22243s | yes and once you go 10 you can't go back |
22247s | anywhere you don't you are you you |
22250s | that's why one of the opponents a while |
22253s | ago surrendered right versus Karma set |
22256s | right we saw it like he knows even |
22258s | though he is ahead in terms of health |
22261s | that would uh basically get them towards |
22264s | uh uh you know a losing position and |
22266s | look at this refill oh my gosh coins to |
22270s | ten and developing inside of inside oh |
22275s | Ionia |
22278s | [Laughter] |
22281s | pacemaker every single answer is in his |
22284s | palms right now this is Checkmate ladies |
22287s | and gentlemen |
22290s | sweaty Palms in the indeed this is gonna |
22293s | be down two seven but still a lot of |
22298s | choices a lot of choices set oh my gosh |
22305s | oh car Irma said it's gonna be you know |
22309s | oh |
22311s | I'm gonna be seeing more karma set on |
22313s | that or now uh show stopper |
22320s | boom |
22322s | oh man I mean I mean I'm seeing this |
22325s | show stopper basically like a suplex man |
22327s | the way it turns around right uh it is |
22330s | the suplex |
22335s | guys oh my goodness okay |
22341s | well it just downhill from here man |
22345s | that's it yeah the only way that meta |
22348s | could do is actually just refill his bot |
22350s | to sustain a little bit more right the |
22352s | uh the price fight is getting lesser the |
22355s | another place your BET's coming in is |
22357s | gonna be Milling himself right here and |
22360s | a high note is burned he got the |
22362s | Aftershock more coins coming in as well |
22367s | rinse and repeat at this point in time |
22369s | right 10 men are free just like that |
22371s | yeah definitely like you know um |
22374s | new men could have attacked a while ago |
22378s | he says like you know he just wants to |
22380s | make sure he just wants to make sure |
22382s | that he's going to be winning and I |
22385s | think uh let's count the numbers right 5 |
22387s | 11 14 |
22390s | 16 plus uh three uh it's gonna be 18 I |
22394s | think it's gonna be enough man like uh |
22396s | uh if uh |
22399s | teach oh my goodness it hurts so much |
22404s | still a five man |
22407s | I'm gonna find something he's gonna kill |
22409s | her for something |
22411s | burn damage Mystic shot Mystic shot no |
22415s | no mixologist what |
22419s | let's find another spell oh man |
22423s | you know I'm kind of iffy about the |
22425s | Aftershock not hitting uh Nexus right |
22427s | now |
22430s | remember After Shock when it uh it was |
22432s | possible to hit uh did your Nexus oh |
22436s | yeah yeah they could have been useful |
22438s | right now but yeah |
22439s | that's just broken man |
22443s | it just broke it |
22445s | oh man it's all down the hill |
22449s | yeah I think that's no turning back at |
22451s | this point in time right like you know |
22452s | uh Gunners coming down and face breaker |
22456s | or even a |
22458s | yo Dawning Shadows killed |
22462s | wow you have units they are not gonna |
22465s | attack right yeah |
22469s | it's just punishment this punishment |
22471s | right here |
22472s | it's like watching a slow running train |
22475s | and with that |
22477s | we see our champion straight up |
22482s | straight up man amazing you know getting |
22485s | sues I told you man whoever didn't ban |

22511s | mathematically speaking wise right you |
22514s | know the Christiana deck actually have a |
22516s | huge advantage against the karma said |
22518s | it's just that you know it's really |
22519s | unfortunate that he don't really have |
22521s | much option and much you know ways to |
22523s | zoom him out and |
22525s | the human was just a guy he was really |
22527s | running low on option and that top deck |
