60s Frost ofis is nuts ice cold Frost ofis
64s is a very very interesting player he's
66s been able to play in multiple different
68s regions he froster this is a cross
70s region Champion he knows how certain
73s people are probably going to play in
74s different areas he's a lovely guy he's
76s got great energy and I think he's very
83s much my name is Frost and I am from
86s Indonesia my great grandparents were
88s born in China as a native and my grandpa
91s moved to Indonesia to marry my grandma
93s they gave me a Chinese name Lim sha long
96s as in a devoted
98s Dragon I started playing Raa during the
101s Chinese beta even before the global
103s version came out I was playing with my
105s friend mime to practice before the game
107s was released uh in total I have 4,300
110s hours in nakaka and I love naraka
113s because it is a skillful game that is
115s why I love
116s n and as a longtime player he's one of
119s the few players that I actually would
120s glean new strategies from and learn
123s things about the game with every
125s encounter that I had with him so I think
127s it's going to be really exciting to see
129s how he performs in J Cup this year it is
132s my first time uh participating in J cup
135s I miss previous jaob because of school I
137s had to fly to either North America or
141s southeast Asia during the qualifying
143s tournament and I ended up missing my
145s chance to go to Jacob even though I have
148s won a harder tournament considering
150s qualifiers was easier than what the
153s tournament I have won the biggest
154s tournament that I have won so far is
157s celester cup season one Asian challenge
159s in Southeast Asia and
165s then the fact that he's been able to
168s perform at a very high level in all of
170s these regions and all of these ranked
172s leader boards and all of that and these
173s tournaments as well where he's been able
175s to learn from all of these different
178s players the timing of all different
181s attacks and all that sort of stuff
182s changes depending on that and it creates
185s a deeper understanding in the game uh
187s the biggest difference I think is that
190s any when the stakes are high they play
193s slower and less
196s aggressive meanwhile for C no matter
199s what the stakes are they will always
200s play aggressive so for frost ofis in
204s terms of knowledge he definitely has a
207s wider wider scale of an advanced than
210s like I'm going to say at least more than
212s half of the solo teams no offense to
214s another half no offense to the other
215s teams though I believe in everybody but
219s having that much knowledge and to win
222s both well I can always go back to the
225s old old song from ludicrous move get out
230s the way get out the
233s way he's coming in strong and he's
236s slaying everybody just be careful
238s somebody that has that much knowledge
240s and that much game sense in all
241s different regions all I'm saying is he's
244s coming my way I'm going to try to lure
245s him to another
257s player
259s Frost R how you doing buddy hello hey
262s you know I'm here representing the our
264s fans and our viewers you got time to
266s answer about 20 questions for me awesome
269s uh I'm a to head to the practice room we
271s can walk there yeah let's do it so how
273s you doing today fros ofus uh I'm doing
275s great I slept pretty well I'm ready to
278s practice awesome what are you thinking
280s about
281s headman uh I can't wait to play in the
284s tournament that's what I'm thinking he
286s yeah so how are you feeling about
288s qualifying for the jaob I'm excited of
291s course but it's more of like a stepping
293s stone for me how do you feel about your
295s fellow players try hard and light
298s hypernova uh
300s I'm not sure cuz I already beat them in
303s na8 love it what are some of your
305s proudest moments in competitive NCO uh
308s some of my proudest moments is when they
311s tweeted about me and call me the first
314s uh cross-continent champion in history
316s of nraa and I feel pretty proud of
318s achieving that speaking of being a
320s cross-continent champion how was moving
322s from na to Indonesia and then back to
324s North America again uh the moving is
327s pretty tiring of course but
330s uh even then I'm kind of glad I did it
333s because you know experience in life I I
337s get to move around even though it's
339s tiring I I'm still happy that I I did it
343s speaking of which what's your favorite
344s style of food Western or Eastern I would
347s say Eastern uh my favorite food of all
350s time is fried rice I I like to try like
353s every kind of fried rice fried rice is a
355s good one um what kind of combos have you
357s been practicing for nraa for Jacob uh
360s combos of course uh I feel like I have
363s mastered most of the weapons but right
366s now I'm using fan the most because it's
368s a new weapon and it is my current
371s favorite weapon as well so I've got to
373s ask you about this Coast to Coast combo
376s people keep telling me about can you
378s explain it to your fans for me uh so
381s coast to coast is more of a katana combo
384s that uh involves a grapple and you can
387s do seven jump lmb
391s and you can keep juggling people nonstop
393s that's why I call it coast to coast and
395s you end up uh bringing people to like
398s the other side of the
399s map awesome is this going to be your
402s first land event yes this is my first
404s ever uh flying for a tournament ah okay
408s so I'm very excited are you nervous
410s about playing on stage uh not
413s exactly I I'm I'm more excited than
416s nervous and who's your favorite hero to
419s play uh my favorite Hero has always been
422s uh teada because I've I've won with
426s teada like for the biggest achievements
429s like winning a and Motors cup I've won
432s both tournaments with teada as my last
435s year do you have any hidden talents that
438s we're not aware of as your fans uh
441s hidden talents uh I'm not sure I I used
444s to play guitar and piano uh and I also
448s used to play basketball
455s but not
457s anymore okay so one final question for
460s you who's your favorite ncka streamer
462s and I'm going to be a little upset if
463s you don't say me Frost of this uh I I
466s can't really say because I don't watch
468s that much
469s streams
471s uh I'm I'm not sure who I can answer I I
474s really don't have I have a favorite

845s is starting to fill up the buzzes in the
847s air ladies and gentle oh my we're
850s finally here we're finally here for the
853s solo final series I I think every single
856s person here is just ecstatic everybody
859s has been waiting all year for this and
862s it's finally happening hey maybe that's
864s what they call it the finals they the
865s finals in changu Jacob 2024 we finally
870s made it not only with that here the
871s crowd is just starting to get get
872s started here as obviously this is the
874s pre-show um and obviously we still got a
877s lot to cover here as we're going to get
878s started here we still got some time left
880s before the first games get going but we
882s have ban pick rules the new band pick
884s rules that has been essential and
885s obviously Raven you being a coach you
887s being somebody that's worked with not
888s only the solos but the trios you've got
890s a real close hand at this new band rule
892s so talk to us a little bit about that
894s yeah the the phases has been a great
896s implementation to the solos no longer do
898s we have those full zipping games those
900s full fa games where it's just a snooze
902s fest going in those end games every
904s single round is going to be exciting
906s it's going to be a nice mix of
908s characters now what it means for the
909s players though we're going to see
911s intense creativity some crazy picks
913s zelit running Tessa running double Viper
915s we're seeing mainly double hottie double
918s faia but it really depends on what group
920s you get you got group a group b Group C
923s and Group C is just your last to pick
926s you you kind of get the short end of the
927s stick but we saw Mike just absolutely
929s dominate today or last time in
931s pre-finals and now this time hopefully
935s Frost will be able to go through cuz he
936s also got Group C can he do it speaking
939s of hype from frost and Mike we're going
941s to go and give you guys a little bit of
942s some Jakob uh recap uh from our games
945s prior to heading here to chenu as we got
947s a chance to see some really amazing
949s highlights as Duncan we've been talking
951s a lot about how these players have
952s really been able to isolate in such
954s amazing fashion towards these final
956s ending circles and talking about players
958s like Raven brought up like frost ofis
960s like uh like A's mik here who hottie top
964s pick one of the best so far here and
966s obviously him being in first place he's
967s got a lot to cover coming into these
969s next six games oh no absolutely and one
971s of the key things going into this Grand
973s Final is that in the pre-finals if you
975s happen to miss it pre-finals you get 50%
978s of the points from that series carried
980s forward into the grand finals and Mike a
983s Thea he's oh he's cooking baby he gets
986s that bar he gets that D for himself and
989s he has been popping off he came out on
991s top in first place in the pre-finals so
994s he is sitting rather comfortably with
996s around 20 points I'd imagine going into
999s the first a but unfortunately quite a
1001s few other players they they're not in
1002s the same boat they don't have that
1004s cushion so starting today quite a few
1008s players aren't going to be on equal
1010s footing a lot of them have have a
1013s cushion to start off with and then a lot
1015s of them might be going into it rather
1017s desperate they need to get some they get
1019s need to get a considerable number of
1020s points to be able to actually catch up
1022s to those players that did well in the
1024s pre-finals speaking of frost of us and
1028s spider spider right here on your screen
1030s he's popping off he's cooking with those
1032s gold nugs and he takes oh and no he
1035s takes him down but un
1039s SP in that section here but obviously
1041s coming in for some of these players here
1042s drakuma another player here that we've
1044s seen in terms of that unpredictability
1046s and that versatil him being able to
1048s actually come through too he didn't
1050s necessarily perform the well that he
1051s that that he wanted to but knowing that
1053s he has these six games to absolutely
1055s cover and dominate I can imagine him
1057s catching up here as we're going to show
1058s you some of the winners from um our
1061s stage our final stage heading here to
1064s chindu here and obviously players like
1065s Akuma xim Wang leang was able to clutch
1068s up his last game as well certifying his
1070s top two placement he's currently in
1072s second place with those 50% cut in half
1075s and obviously for a player like oura nn
1079s a double Regional Champion he is the
1081s only person that has won from two
1083s regions and he is here fighting for his
1085s chance to take home not only that prize
1087s pool but to take home that Championship
1089s I know you have had a really close uh
1092s conversation and you've got a chance to
1093s really work with him uh over time
1095s throughout this while we've been here
1096s this entire time and I know he's
1098s absolutely ready what are your thoughts
1099s on Frost ofus I mean Frost ofus during
1101s the the first pre-final he felt like he
1103s wasn't locked in but today my man was
1107s stoic he just to no words to nobody
1109s walked down the lobby sat alone drank
1112s his coffee alone set up alone he let
1115s Kishi know his manager no one is talking
1117s to me today he is locking in and he's
1119s representing Na and all the foreigners
1122s out of there Frost ofz is fighting we
1125s saw him last night Duncan you had a
1127s chance to see all the pros sit line up
1129s and sit to fight against Frost trying to
1131s get some of but Frost just holding all
1135s of them just absolutely worked on this
1137s fan he thought it was his short short
1139s coming last time he thought about his
1140s neutral his fighting ability he hit a
1143s wall when it came to Mike and spider but
1145s since then he has climbed that wall and
1148s he is locked in he had a chance to take
1150s down Mike to take down spider on the big
1152s stage but he just felt there was still
1154s something he was missing he spent the
1156s last week breaking things down to the
1158s smallest level to find their weaknesses
1161s and he feels super confident going into
1163s this finals now he did go into Yang the
1165s most out of everyone out of everyone
1167s Frost ofus is going Yang he is taking
1170s his Destiny into his own hands if he's
1172s going out he's losing in Yang he's
1174s showing everyone that he's willing to
1177s fight the best in the world and he's
1179s making it work we can see it right here
1181s he has been performing extremely well I
1183s did have a talk with him myself and said
1185s he said how do you not be nervous how
1187s how what should I do and I told him bro
1190s you have been here you have been taking
1193s these players down we're seeing it right
1195s right before your eyes ladies and
1197s gentlemen Frost of us taking down not
1198s only Mike but also spider immediately
1201s afterwards in this highlight with the
1203s pistol shots right out of the air oh
1205s chipping away and spider trying to heal
1206s but he can't manage to do so Frost of he
1209s has been he's been he's just been
1212s performing absurdly well you know nobody
1215s expected him to come in and play this
1217s well and perform this well and take down
1219s all of these Heavy Hitters all of these
1221s veterans you got wangle Yang in this
1223s clip here Frost of is trying to chase
1225s him down because he has this Yang
1227s depletion you know hey Yang depletion
1228s that's the big debuff you want to get
1230s rid of that you need to get rid of that
1231s but Frost of us he has no fear this is
1233s the amount of confidence coming from a
1235s player like frost of us here but like I
1236s said both being Regional champions of
1238s both sections here understanding what he
1241s has and that potential and having the
1243s wkey mental to go into some of the best
1247s players in the world like Wang leang
1249s like wbg spider like A's Mike and
1251s absolutely dominate with nothing but
1253s confidence really shows how much work
1256s this man has put in I mean seeing
1257s perfect B shots eliminating players like
1260s spider in such tight moment here and him
1262s even securing a dub to be able to lock
1264s his placement into our grand finals here
1267s on this main stage for somebody who has
1270s won both regionals it clearly shows that
1273s he has that experience and he has that
1275s mental capacit toe in order to actually
1278s come through and potentially win here
1281s with six games but on top of that not
1283s only that he has got the most entrances
1287s into the of Yang out of everyone in this
1292s roster on top of that he's gotten he's
1294s parried 26 times in the group stages
1297s when I talk about wkey and that defense
1300s he is able to do both he denies players
1303s and he walks in like what's up yes
1305s that's me I came here before I got my
1308s Vermillion burs mate let me go ahead and
1309s get another
1310s reward absolutely hey speaking of
1313s another player who so Frost of us
1315s unfortunately wasn't able to put all
1316s that many points on the board in Pre
1318s finals however neither was spider you
1321s know they're both they're they're in the
1323s same boat and that spider off the back
1325s of his first day in group stage getting
1327s four MVPs back to back and amazing
1331s performance that will probably go down
1332s in the history of Jacob to get that many
1334s MVPs in this environment is insane
1336s looking at a quick stat here we have wbg
1339s spider having taken average damage equal
1342s to 10 golden armor so that's
1345s 12.6 th000 damage that is a lot of
1349s damage my man's getting focus fired out
1351s there yeah absolutely no he's this is
1353s something that you and I have talked
1354s about is that wbg spider and aw's Mike
1357s they've been ahead of the game when it
1359s comes to registering their mind where
1362s these armors are on the map being able
1364s to like see the map in their mind and
1367s see where they can go and position
1369s themselves so that they're able to
1371s double back go pick up that armor get
1373s the armor swap if they need to if
1375s they're in put in that bad situation
1377s that uh could mean that their death and
1378s could mean that they're going back to
1380s the lobby you know you don't want that
1381s you don't want that going into these
1382s games but speaking of spider here this
1384s is a nice little event that happened
1386s about a week ago in the official nraa
1388s blade Point Discord where some of you at
1390s home were able to ask both Mike and
1393s spider some questions in the Discord and
1395s one of those questions was how much time
1397s each day do you play nraa and he said
1400s that he plays at least 5 hours at least
1404s five at least is interesting coming from
1406s a pro player here that least is
1409s the the minimum yeah minimum that's the
1411s minimum of five hours imagine if he has
1414s open days to do what he wants to
1416s obviously this is wbg spider he is at
1418s the top of his game so clearly he's
1419s doing way more than 5 hours yeah he's I
1422s think he's downplaying a little bit how
1424s much would you say he should be
1425s practicing or do you what do you think
1426s of that answer I mean the mvpl players
1428s they're just constantly grinding the
1430s competition is so Fierce and you see the
1432s camaraderie you see the players
1434s everywhere you go these guys are hanging
1436s off each other eating with each other
1437s dancing joking every and on the na side
1440s we see these guys as these these
1442s juggernauts but they're actually just a
1443s bunch of silly players just having a
1445s great time and it just 5 hours just goes
1447s by these guys are just having a great
1449s time practicing norocco at minimum
1451s though like you both were saying 5 hours
1453s at least these guys some of these guys
1455s are going 10 12 hours streaming now we
1457s talk about other questions too that I
1458s know the Discord also asked they asked
1460s him uh what is also something that uh
1462s you definitely should do when you're
1464s learning to Rocka he says you scale Rush
1466s more and then on top of that he says
1469s what three things would you recommend
1470s for somebody that wants to go pro he
1472s says learn how to escape learn how to
1473s pursue and learn how to guess what your
1475s opponent's going to new next thoughts on
1477s that Raven um that's just standard ncka
1480s if you can't catch someone you're not
1481s going to get kills you can't get caught
1484s you're never going to be killed and you
1485s cannot get kills if you're dead guys now
1488s finally learn how guess what your
1491s opponent's going to do next now we call
1493s it boy we call it gameer play we call it
1495s that read how you start there it's all
1497s about positioning baby you need room to
1499s think that's how you start learning how
1500s to guess what your opponent is going to
1501s do and you can't do anything if your
1503s opponent's on top of you pressuring you
1504s so he is 100% correct spider learning
1508s how to guess your opponents he is one of
1510s the best to do it outside the pocket now
1512s Mike on the other hand he's in there
1514s spider he's with the Finesse he's with
1516s that footwork he's dancing in and out
1518s and you're going to see a lot of crazy
1520s fan things coming out from spider today

2475s probably do listen listen I'm hottie I
2477s can fly I'm talk I'm on fire I'm
2481s VA wi survey
2484s says oh it's a tie ladies and gentle
2487s Raven Duncan tied it up sadly there is
2490s no winner and there is no loser here but
2493s the final answer was hiding in
2495s invisibility bushes hiding in
2497s invisibility Bush I mean to be fair
2500s though like imagine hiding in the bush
2501s and you
2502s literally get murdered if yeah you don't
2505s want to you don't want to get like yeah
2507s okay that makes sense those are good
2508s places to hide when you're getting
2509s smashed drink it with tarishi and then
2511s you end up falling
2512s asleep and you you go inside see that's
2515s the whole thing about it so you know
2516s what just because of that I'm just going
2517s to
2519s go that's pretty much how it's going to
2520s work you guys are both winners so you
2521s also get a handshake congratulations
2524s congratulations you guys get you guys
2526s get the participation award listen it's
2527s over with it doesn't matter we're here
2529s we're locked in the solos are going to
2531s be absolutely incredible here there's
2533s been so much going down the crowd is
2535s just starting to jump in the stage is
2538s set there's a lot of anticipation it's a
2540s little chilly in here but it's
2541s definitely going to get a little bit
2543s warmer as we have six games to lock in
2545s for our solos but for everybody here at
2547s this table I have one last question for
2549s you guys before we send it over to the
2551s stage and we have a good time seeing an
2553s incredible start to these six games we
2555s got some predictions a lot of
2557s expectations for these players the solos
2559s we've talked about it all this year we
2561s have seen A's Mike we have seen spider
2564s is spider going to come through and
2565s defend his title is Mike going to take
2568s that away and shut down the dreams of
2570s spider or is wangang finally going to
2572s come out of the grass of that down in
2574s the Deep depths and take it away from
2577s both of them are both of them going to
2578s get griefed is G Shaw going to open the
2580s book get those third parties is he going
2582s to absolutely Slaughter the whole a
2584s whole slot or is drg zaka going to be so
2588s unpredictable nobody can guess or know
2590s what he's doing next there's so many
2592s different things so with that being said
2594s Duncan I'm going to start with you first
2596s who is your pick to take home this
2598s Trophy and a lot of bread I think you
2600s all know my
2602s prediction I got to stay true to the
2605s taker brethen the f dog Brothers my
2608s prediction OG Spiderman he has had he
2611s has had such a good year last year he
2614s missed out on qualifying but just the
2615s tiniest little bit he did so unbel so
2618s insanely well he broke records to try
2620s and get there but unfortunately he
2622s wasn't able to secure his qualification
2624s but this year he makes it he's improved
2626s a lot Hey I was talking to him last
2628s night he was talking to his strategy
2629s today he was like he's cooking up
2631s something and I'm excited to see him
2633s pull it out today you helped him cook
2635s yeah I helped I showed him in my great
2638s stff I'm excited absolutely he said yo I
2641s I'll I'll see what kind of situations I
2643s can use that in and he was like okay if
2644s I see him do that today I will I'll just
2647s he's going to lose his mind for sure
2649s 100% so locked in ug's Panda man that is
2652s your pick for the solo champion of Our
2654s World Finals here for jaob Raven you
2657s have seen all of the hard work for some
2659s of these players you have watched them
2661s inside of the private lobbies you have
2662s seen them go One V one against Frost
2664s ofis against try hard you have seen all
2667s from trios and solos who do you got for
2668s your solo pick ah my dark hor is going
2671s to be frostos but who's going to pick
2673s the numbers check out I believe xcg Wang
2676s Lang is going to be able to take it he
2678s he was so close in nvpl finals one kill
2683s versus his rival Mike he was in tears
2685s and I think all of his hard work all of
2687s his Innovation is going to pay off like
2688s most people don't know this they think
2689s of spider they think of Mike but if you
2691s really study the game Wang Lang really
2694s creates a ton of strategies that all the
2696s other Pro players steal from him so I'm
2698s hoping for my man that he finally breaks
2700s through and he wins it but my heart goes
2702s to my Dark Horse fras I think he's going
2704s to surprise people as well definitely
2706s going to be a amazing start here but for
2708s Raven locked
2710s ing's Wang leang is going to be his pick
2713s for the solos to take it over and I
2715s think for myself here like I said I've
2717s been all over the place I have been
2719s watching these players for a while I've
2721s been seeing the improvements from a lot
2722s of these players I think panan is a
2723s fantastic example of somebody who
2725s started um kind of from the bottom I
2728s think we loved his enthusiasm we loved
2730s the way he played and seeing how how he
2733s really wanted to get that dub from last
2734s year really got a chance to show how
2736s much he really wanted to be here and the
2738s fact that he's here is incredible but I
2740s love M sleeper pick I love me unexpected
2743s sleeper pick that comes out of the
2745s bushes comes out of the shadows and in
2747s that game five game six they pop out and
2749s they go crazy my pick is J team's action
2752s the last of the J team the last of J
2756s team has a shot exan is one of those
2759s players who has been caught inside the
2761s shadows for so long he's been very close
2763s I have seen him and I know that if he
2765s plays his cards right game five and game
2767s six could be his he might be walking
2769s away with that trophy so my lock is
2770s going to be J team's exit so we got some
2773s good picks and for chat I'm going to ask
2775s everybody in chat here I want to see you
2778s guys in chat what do you guys pick for
2780s your number one Champion here who's
2783s going to be hoisting that trophy who's
2784s going home a victory champion here for
2787s the World Finals here at Jacob I would
2788s love to see it in chat I need to see
2790s what's going on with that I going be
2791s checking chat while we're going through
2792s all of this here but there is still so
2794s much happening I'm so excited this has

4922s changu China obviously we have seen an
4925s incredible start to an amazing six games
4929s that's about to go on like I said the
4931s stage is set the anticipation is here
4934s and now it is time to have six games of
4938s monumental absolute wkey action I am
4942s your host cavier alongside Duncan Donuts
4946s Raven still here on the Caster table
4948s here as we still got a little bit of a
4950s pre-show before we get into the action
4951s here but there's been so much
4953s anticipation did you hear this crowd
4955s when Mike and SPID walk out they are
4958s talk about a fan favorite absolutely we
4961s I we had such an energy it was just
4964s electric through the air you could feel
4966s it every single person in the stands
4969s they they're here they're here to see it
4972s all and explode into just like I I
4977s have no words I have no words this

4983s wish you could all be here but hey
4985s you're here watching at home and we're
4986s here to bring it to you from live from
4989s changu at Jacob I'm so excited I'm so
4993s excited Raven your thoughts on the uh on
4995s the uh the insanity of what we just
4997s watched I i' I was a professional
4999s Counter-Strike player before uh Dobby
5001s but this was a bucket list for me
5003s this to me was a dream come true it took
5005s me two years to get here and seeing an
5007s International Event and seeing just how
5010s far NCO has come and how much effort
5012s they put in the crowd the sold out Arena
5015s dbby like hearing the roar after every
5018s fan favorite player came out and they
5020s walked down the hype was just it's
5022s unimaginable Frost of us did the oh that
5025s was amazing I felt that I felt that
5027s energy not only with feeling that as
5029s well just to be able to make sure that
5030s you guys know make sure to hit up the
5031s the follow on here on twitch check out

5050s of stats a lot of info for you guys so
5052s make sure to be following that on
5054s Twitter but back to a lot of this
5057s Insanity here by the way we have drops
5059s don't don't think we don't have drops
5061s here you better make sure that Jara is
5062s link to your Twitch so that way you can
5064s still get drops on the channel cuz
5065s there's still going to be some questions
5066s and there's still going to be some
5067s answers and y'all better make sure y'all
5069s paying attention cuz these next six
5070s games are about to be actually packed
5072s they absolutely hey Raven number one
5075s Weston coach what do you think we're
5076s going to see off the rip well we had the
5078s pre-finals six games we're at that
5080s halfway point Duncan there's a lot of
5082s nrao to be played today six ooly games
5086s we're starting right now with three day
5088s times on holl off there's nowhere to run
5090s there's nowhere to hide like we saw the
5092s there's no end games everyone's going
5094s out there there's two rounds maybe that
5096s there are end games but every other
5097s round it's just Nonstop Action everyone
5100s is going for the throw there is no
5101s second place there's no third place this
5103s is it this is it all comes down to you
5105s have to go for it all second is just
5108s first loser what they say if he ain't
5110s first you're last exactly as we're about
5113s to really show you guys how this in I
5116s mean listen literally the stage is
5118s incredible here as our players are about
5119s to get ready to lock in for our first
5121s game there's still lot that's happening
5123s obviously we talked about Frost we
5124s talked about Mike we talked about spider
5126s some of these other players here that we
5128s haven't had a chance to really give that
5130s you know that that moment to players
5132s like Wang Lang right another player like
5134s exen a player like Akuma Akuma that
5137s unpredictability jdg shazen who really
5140s was kind of the Dark Horse of this
5142s roster there was a lot of open
5144s opportunities for a lot of these players
5146s and jdg was really able to slip through
5148s the cracks and really was able to hold
5150s strong towards that final because he had
5152s to really try to come at the very last
5155s moment and he was able to to secure his
5157s spot here so even with all of this going
5160s on now they still have points that they
5163s have to accumulate to continue with what
5164s they have now some of these players are
5165s down very very low meanwhile people like
5168s spider and Mike and and Wang leang is at
5172s that top 19 points is the top 19 19
5175s points for Mike and then we have 17.5 or
5178s so I think for second place on wangang
5182s good wo look at that that is a lot of
5185s bread ladies and gentlemen the total
5187s prize pool total prize pool
5191s $286,000 the champion takes home more
5195s than a third of that prize pool
5199s ,000 and on top of that you get a ban
5202s every time you get MVP so on top of that
5204s you getting that dub is going to secure
5205s yourself another ,000 on top of that
5207s here as we're going to give you the
5208s schedule in terms of what is happening
5210s here we're going to be doing the back
5211s and forth we're going to do three in
5213s hollo and three in Morris Isle here
5216s obviously there is only going to be one
5218s night map we have um two dusk we have
5221s two sunnies and one cloudy so holl off
5225s is going to be an insane start it's
5227s going to be interesting to see how these
5228s players really have kept up this format
5230s here as we've been continuing to keep
5232s the schedule consistently since we've
5234s gone to the prelim finals and since the
5236s prelims have started it has been three
5238s starting and three ending rather than
5240s our usual one uh Morris one hollow and
5243s then back to backs so it gives them a
5245s little bit more consistency as we're
5247s looking at the Players here I mean
5248s there's a lot to expect here from some
5250s of these players here but I do got to
5251s get I I got to give a little bit of love
5252s to Zeeland dink Zeeland dink coming
5254s through here his first time and on top
5257s of that coming through with some Viper
5260s picks V2
5262s and3 plus that V2 Tessa as well I mean
5266s the picks on Hollow traditionally you're
5268s seeing those uh faras coming out those
5271s zipping coming out but Dobby got an
5274s interview coming up uh this one is you
5277s actually this one I think this one has
5280s something to do with you here we're
5281s going to show that video really
5283s quickly hello everyone I am Raven plz
5287s and I am joined by the handsome man
5289s frostz how are you feeling today I'm
5291s feeling great I'm ready to play in the
5293s finals and I can't wait going into
5296s finals what do you think is going to be
5298s the key to your Victory today uh the key
5301s to my victory I would say would be my
5303s strategy uh I've been having trouble
5305s with my strategies in the group stage
5307s and pre finals but I'm ready for the
5309s finals and I've changed a lot of my
5311s strategies and I feel like I could do a
5313s lot better compared to what it was
5314s before well Frost ofus all of Na is
5318s behind you brother I wish you the best
5320s and good luck to you on the final stage
5322s and we'll be joining us back with the
5324s main broadcast in a second indeed Hey
5329s Hey Na and sea he's the he's the double
5332s champ two time he he hey he's been he's
5335s been he's been ling up he's been getting
5337s those dubs all around the world ladies
5339s and gentlemen he is doing and he's come
5341s here he's come here to Jacob he's to
5343s take he's come to take is K secure CN
5347s and become a three time Regal
5349s champ as we're going to show you guys
5351s the standings in terms of where these
5353s players are so far unique's got a long
5355s way to go here starting with that 2.1
5356s he's going to have a tough time here but
5358s for players like zelan frost ofus that's
5359s 7.5 7.1 putting them in that spot that's
5363s seventh place and eighth place they have
5365s a long way to go but the way that
5367s they've been playing that confidence
5369s coming in from those finals they
5371s definitely can put up some really good
5372s points if they really focus strong on
5374s these first couple of games I think it's
5375s going to be the first few games are
5376s going to be detriments either that or
5378s some people especially at the top are
5380s going to be focusing on those last games
5382s really trying to make sure that that
5384s game five and six is going to be theirs
5385s especially for players like Mike Wang L
5387s T225 it's going to be really amazing to
5390s see how these players pull it off today
5391s absolutely what would you actually I
5393s wanted to ask you what would you say to
5395s these players who are looking at the
5396s bottom half of the leaderboard currently
5398s as they're going into the grand finals
5399s today Raven it's a lot on the rocket to
5401s be played Duncan 10 points is one good
5403s game and if you look at the stats from
5405s the pre-finals everyone had two pop off
5407s games Mike had two 14 point gains Wang
5409s Lang he was nowhere near the top he just
5411s suddenly had a crazy T game and popped
5413s off and if I know frostos if I know
5416s anyone on the bottom all these guys are
5417s best in the world of their regions any
5419s one of these guys can pop off and find
5422s that open especially with the phases as
5424s long as you know which the pick which
5425s the counter it doesn't matter if you're
5427s a b or c if you got the good strats you
5429s can still bring this back and all it
5432s takes is one game to get that momentum
5434s going and I I hope Frost we're giving
5437s him that energy he look locked in this
5440s morning the way here in the lobby yeah
5443s he was you don't told him don't know I
5446s think he's going to surprise every he's
5447s going to surprise the whole world
5449s hopefully we're going to see how he
5450s comes out today and if he starts off
5452s early if any of these players start off
5454s fast you're going to see a lot of
5456s success players I I got to say before we
5458s Retreat I got to say one thing though um
5460s when we saw them on stage earlier doing
5461s the rehearsals he looks like the main
5463s anime protagonist looking outside the
5465s window in the first episode of Every
5467s anime known to man here but obviously
5469s for somebody like him he's got a lot to
5471s do but that's going to be a wrap for you
5473s Raven as you get a chance to sit down
5475s amongst the crowd and be able to watch
5476s the insanity thank you for being here on

5533s real quick that little that little
5534s presidential wave real quick as is uh
5537s you get a chance to sign off here and
5541s say he and obviously coming through like
5545s we said average kills 2.6 coming in from
5547s Wang leang average damage almost that
5549s 10K Wang leang in that top three
5553s position second place 17 points he has a
5556s really good start for him obviously
5557s that's to mulch doing well and so is The
5560s Zing The Zing being one of the favorites
5563s for a lot of these players here that
5564s very vital pick there's only a few VTO
5567s picks so far with a lot of these players
5568s it's been the hottie it's been um the
5571s Justina and has been another very vital
5573s pick it has been um the ziping yangang
5577s it's it's been these characters here
5578s that has been a detriment and for player
5580s like frost ofis he has taken nothing but
5583s advantage of hot no absolutely there I
5585s was actually part of a discussion
5587s between Frost Raven and tryhard and they
5590s were all talking about what he was going
5592s to look to double pick as as we all know
5596s at this point and if you don't you've
5598s not really been paying attention each
5600s player can pick one character up to two
5603s times and then every other character
5605s they pick for the six game series is a
5609s unique character so here we are but this
5611s has been spicing it up ever since it was
5614s introduced for this series for this
5617s tournament we have the hero pick
5621s selection phase in our first round
5623s selection we have Mike
5625s zelinka and J team's X Shin second is
5629s spider T25 wangyang Akuma and then our
5632s last round we have chuang pandaan unique
5635s and frost so these four players down in
5639s the last round selection they're going
5641s to have the last pick of the bunch
5644s they're going to be picking the scraps
5646s you know all of these picks in the first
5649s in the first selection I think we're
5650s going to be seeing either four zipping
5654s or three zipping in probably a far okay
5657s something along those L this is this is
5658s the great thing about this type of game
5660s as well here especially with the bands
5661s it's it's foring some of these players
5663s here to do it as we get nothing but a
5665s three split here and just like that and
5667s AI coming out from zeling a coming in
5670s but that literally is gone just like
5673s that the Cena they decide no she's got
5675s to go off this first game cuz you know
5677s that confidence is going to shine
5678s through as we do see some of the players
5679s locked in as well here Faria is also now
5682s being banned as she's been picked three
5684s times in the second phase now moving
5686s over into the fourth phase Zaria and
5689s zipping have both been banned out so you
5692s can't pick that character and so far
5694s we've got unique Frost ofus and chuang
5696s all hovering that Hardy they're going to
5698s be taking this Hardy into the final and
5700s let's go
5703s yes off the rib ladies and
5706s gentlemen go go for the classic T off
5710s the rip game one ladies and gentlemen we
5713s love to see the picks and this surprise
5715s coming through for the fans here as we
5717s love when Panda man locks in an absolute
5720s classic absolutely I was talking to him
5723s last night and he was I I was talking so
5726s what are you going to double pick what
5727s are you going to be picking tomorrow and
5728s he told me that it's very difficult to
5731s be choosing taka more than once and I
5733s was obviously in full agreement it's not
5735s easy to pick taka into these lobbies
5737s where you have things like the fer the
5739s zipping the Hardy even is not the best
5741s match up for taka and all of these
5743s characters have the ability to reset get
5746s those heals off and get back to safety
5749s get out yeah get out of bad situations
5752s TKA struggles he needs that isolated 1 V
5755s one situation to be able to pick up
5757s these
5757s eliminations but hey he's bringing it
5760s out game number one ladies and gentlemen
5763s we're about to be jumping in it's about
5765s to get ooly booly oh
5769s my I'm so excited it's been absolutely
5773s insane like I said the stories have been
5774s told and the chapters have been set the
5777s question is who is going to finish the
5779s book for the grand finals here at J team
5781s it's game number one ladies and
5782s Gentlemen let's go back to those picks
5785s for these players and let's see where
5787s they're also going to be landing like I
5788s said that expectation coming in from
5790s some of these players here has been
5791s really good here but seeing the faras
5793s seeing some of those bands really
5794s shutting down some of these players here
5796s for giving them that opportunity to lock
5798s in the players that they're used to now
5800s it's time for the scramble this is why
5801s the ban is so amazing on making sure
5804s that these players are not continuously
5806s doing the predictable picks now you got
5808s to start to switch it up a little bit
5809s for some of these other players and they
5811s have to think long game they got to
5812s think game five game three they got to
5814s think a little further they can't think
5816s too early in these situations here so
5818s now they take the risk to you take the
5820s hottie too early do you start with the
5821s Justina or do you decide to do something
5823s else but with some of these picks here
5825s it's very surprising but I mean we still
5827s have to bring it up ug pandaan bringing
5829s out the old school classic so clearly
5831s we're going to be focusing on that as we
5833s go straight into the map Pool and the
5835s rep wow really different from what I'm
5838s expecting actually only a single player
5840s heading towards the very center of
5841s salvation Podium that is going to be wbg
5843s spider meanwhile I got a four pack of
5845s people headed towards that looks like
5846s that cinear Valley and the ridge of
5848s thorns meanwhile K Akuma we've got Mike
5851s El's Frost heading towards the bottom
5853s section of Tang Courtyard and windy
5855s Stones talk about people not trying to
5857s get into immediate fights as it looks
5859s like ug's pandaan that insane Tara
5862s Landing in aqu quail's Crest inside of
5864s Plum Castle here going to start strong
5866s as it looks like Akuma it's going to be
5868s landing off the outskirts heading
5870s towards Ember Hawk that game one is
5872s going to be the surprising the first
5874s strong starts of these games are going
5875s to be really interesting here and let's
5876s see how they're going to lock this in
5877s for our first game as we peek in and see
5879s the fights happening from spider spider
5881s gets caught by Akuma immediately gets
5882s found on the inside here he's going to
5884s try to go through but spider actually
5885s has no weapon to his name at all it's
5888s going to claim the first elimination and
5890s the first Blood of our six games hey the
5892s first Blood of Jacob Grand Final solos
5895s ladies and gentlemen goes over to Akuma
5897s unfortunately spider was not able to
5899s find himself a m weapon to be able to
5900s fight him on off and unfortunately just
5903s got cooked up with no armor a huge F
5906s coming out here heading on over to
5908s wangang and GG sh fight scrapping out G
5910s sh and he gets the kill but the third
5913s part is coming in action he's coming
5915s with that purple armor he's ready to go
5917s he's ready to take down wangang he's
5919s like oh I I I I could have I could have
5921s got that kill myself but no he's trying
5923s to get that Stu he's trying to he's
5925s trying to lock him down wangang he's up
5927s on the wall he's looking to get this
5928s scale Rush he's trying to uh he's trying
5930s to
5932s trying to cut off the entry he's try to
5934s him he's going to that blue but managed
5937s to anen to catch him off but he is an
5941s incredible amount of damage falling off
5943s of that building wangang managing to
5945s equalize that effective Health pool and
5947s alleviate some of that pressure coming
5949s out from xen doeses a really great job
5951s in that moment here as we're seeing a
5952s four-way stretch of fights happening and
5954s it looks like A's mik is caught on the
5955s wrong side of it the cont coming in from
5957s frost as he beautiful and is k225
5960s actually steals the elimination away
5961s from frost frost ofus on the outskirts
5963s here as now he has to retreat and get
5965s out of Dodge dangerously low gets hit
5967s beautiful hits coming through from the
5968s retreat but he ends up getting caught
5970s Beautiful s just to try to get offer
5972s from the hottie hottie trying to see if
5974s he can keep the movement going but T225
5975s decides he wants to keep the same energy
5977s pops open the shield just enough time
5979s and it looks like it's going to be a
5980s reset coming in from both parties here
5981s looks like T225 decides it might be
5983s better to back off this fight realizing
5985s he has the elimination goes for the
5986s rewards and it looks like he's still
5988s going to be walking out of that fight
5989s empty-handed heading in it looks like
5991s we're going to see XG fighting that out
5992s beautiful Perry on jdg Shaz forced on
5994s the back stretch here having those dual
5996s H Birds here now trying to see if he can
5998s Retreat this off here nice hits off of
6000s it and now he's caught on the inside
6001s beautiful defense as well immediately
6003s hits the FK and now the shields start to
6005s help with the accumulation of those
6006s heals jdc both of them trying to wait
6008s for the blue strike trying to time it he
6010s times it a little bit better the bow
6011s hits from the backside Akuma comes
6012s through with a third party FK tries to
6015s take him out jady Z goes airboard and he
6017s decides to dip out what a beautiful what
6019s a beautiful execution getting out
6021s the back try to see it's not going to be
6025s enough as Akuma steals the elimination
6027s and captures elimination number two oh
6029s beautifully done Luma now coming over
6032s from that Podium from the from the
6034s puzzle having unlocked its treasures and
6037s has now managed to pick himself up a
6040s gold weapon a legendary weapon one of
6042s the only ways that you can actually get
6044s yourself a legendary weapon in a mtal
6047s war the tournament game mode that we all
6049s know and love that we all play Akuma now
6051s he's trying to take this blue fan over
6053s onto Xin he's chipping Ain all the way
6056s down Xin losing so much health Akuma Tri
6059s to go for the P combo tries to drop it
6061s down and get the lift with the uppercut
6062s but unfortunately he's not able to do so
6064s Akuma now swaps over to those gold juel
6067s Halbert a in he's managed to get around
6069s the corner he turns around with a double
6070s charge the meter burn he dumps it all
6073s onto Akuma taking him down rather low
6075s he's not got his ultimate available he
6077s catches him on the old Dodge on the tap
6079s Dodge backwards the PO comes out though
6082s the M coming out from Xin doesn't manage
6085s to capitalize it on capitalize on it
6086s fully unfortunately Akuma he's now on
6089s the retreat he has no armor to his name
6091s his ultimate is almost up if he's able
6093s to stall out for just a little bit
6095s longer he's going to be able to get that
6097s P down he might be able to get a reset
6099s or potentially look to close out this
6101s kill on action ation he's not going to
6103s let him get this he tries to find him he
6105s tries to catch and he PRS him getting
6106s the heal but oh my Lord the damage
6108s coming through ex now back on the back
6110s foot he's trying to get away he's using
6112s the movement from the nunchucks the P
6113s comes down but unfortunately the TR GS
6115s him yet again action is found another
6117s way to disappear disengage and he's put
6120s a considerable amount of distance
6121s between himself and Akuma Akuma is not
6123s going to let him he's not going to let
6124s him go he's never letting this go he
6126s wants that third elimination he wants to
6128s get a nice early lead for himself those
6131s gold Halbert are going to do work the
6133s Uppa coming through unfortunately he's
6134s not able to get the confirmation the
6136s armor swap coming in as well this is a
6139s long fight this is so unbelievably this
6141s is what happens when you have a fer and
6143s a zipping battle it out on hollo
6146s meanwhile looks like we might have some
6147s uh some potential Party Poopers here it
6149s looks like A's Mike wants to join in on
6150s this festivities and it looks like he's
6152s going to get some hits onto ex
6153s immediately comes through trying to see
6154s if he can capture this elimination hits
6156s the F key onto xen as xen is going to
6158s try to see if they can pop the heals on
6159s him as well trying to give it going here
6161s as he's trying to dodge both sides of
6163s the spear and the Dual hirs here trying
6165s not to get caught up as SP get up
6166s getting hit beautiful hit Stoke towards
6168s that a nice reset as it looks like the
6170s musket shots coming through from the
6171s back strs it looks like that's going to
6172s be from there and it looks like akuma's
6173s going to claim the elimination gets
6175s absolutely
6177s shredded shreding Mike into this
6179s excursion Mike trying to take the time
6182s to pop the shield has the time for it
6183s hits the F ke and now he's basically
6185s waiting for the scale Rush here just to
6186s see if someone decid to pop off this and
6188s now the rotation also starts to slow
6190s this one down Akuma able to pop open and
6193s get a little bit of some repair on his
6194s weapons here as Mike is going to also
6195s separate himself as well he does have
6197s his first elimination on the board so he
6199s doesn't necessarily need to force
6200s anything he doesn't have to Akuma same
6202s situation he has three eliminations he's
6204s doing really really well so far onto
6206s this space here so they're still on the
6208s rotation side here and it looks like
6210s exin is far far gone meanwhile we have
6213s unique wangang Mike and Akuma all within
6216s this one stretch here and it looks like
6217s GG Shaw up top might be finding this out
6219s with spider here very soon but our first
6221s first real of Yang is going to be
6222s popping up very very soon absolutely it
6224s looks like action has been forced to go
6226s all the way down south to find this
6229s Resurrection alter and it looks as
6230s though you may have been right we got
6232s wangang and Akuma scrapping it out
6234s alongside a 521 a unique around this
6238s dark tide dealer this shop here they're
6240s all trying to get as many resources as
6242s they can but we've got a little bit of a
6244s crowd over here we have T25 ug's pandam
6246s man and Frost ofs and now Mike joining
6250s in on the party they're all posturing to
6253s try and find their entrance into this
6255s realm of Yang o a little soul Bloom has
6257s been stashed I'm not sure whose Soul
6259s Bloom that is or who got the kill to
6262s manage to get it secured down there oh
6265s we going to get into the r the we are we
6267s have
6268s T225 versus spider in the other R of
6271s Yang we have Akuma versus A's Mike but
6275s first of all we are going to be checking
6276s out our champion wbg spider on the Hardy
6280s pick going to engage going Sky High up
6283s against this barrier he's taking a
6285s little bit of damage from this pistol
6287s he's trying to equalize it now he drops
6289s down with the blue Focus the Clank comes
6290s in he's got a cannon unfortunately the
6292s cannon is not all that fast of a
6294s projectile speed he's not going to be
6295s able to shoot it out as fast as the
6296s pistol but he does have this Cavalry
6297s Bloom that threat is going to be coming
6299s in very very soon but T5 he's ready for
6302s it he turns around he gets that Parry
6304s spider oh he goes for the whole He Tri
6307s goes for the hold cancel unfortunately
6309s T25 is ready with that pillow knocks him
6311s down does a crazy amount of damage and
6314s now spider is forced to use that Al he's
6315s trying to fly away he's trying to get
6317s some kind of a reset he's trying to heal
6319s up he's trying to position himself above
6321s T T25 he's directly underneath him he's
6325s trying to move around so that he can
6326s actually do the damage the POV doesn't
6328s allow him to shoot directly up but
6330s spider is now caught behind this pill
6332s he's getting sent flying to the side
6334s takes a lot of damage now he manages to
6337s equalize it somewhat he gets a heal off
6339s he's going for another one T25 he's
6341s trying to get as much value as he
6342s possibly can out of his mag but
6344s unfortunately there's not very much time
6346s left and it gets taken down T25 gets the
6349s initial opener forces the combo breaker
6351s Al spider he does the same thing it
6353s equalizes again and spider gets caught
6355s by the vertical and there it is T25
6358s takes down spider T225 absolutely insane
6362s here as he was able to clutch that here
6364s beautiful timing coming through and
6366s obviously he becomes Victorious you can
6368s even tell the nerves coming through from
6370s him as he takes a big deep side of
6372s relief going up against one of the top
6373s players in this game as Frost is having
6376s some of a fighting of his own here
6377s fighting against ex who's in who's in
6379s the top six currently here Akuma down in
6382s that 7.5 here as looks like he's going
6384s to go for the chase he's able to get rid
6385s of that Shield coming in from xgen as
6387s now that scale Rush coming through
6388s trying to see if he can time it just a
6389s little bit here trying to trying to read
6392s that predictability but sometimes it's a
6393s little bit hard coming in from a player
6394s like exan and obviously we're going to
6396s come through on the outskirts here k225
6398s looks like he wants to put in some work
6399s here he wants to capture this fire he
6401s almost gets the elimination off of Mike
6402s here Mike struggling trying to see if he
6405s can get this rotation out of the way
6406s here as now he's just taking his time
6408s and rotating it a little bit further
6410s away as he getting hit by the fire the
6411s burnt able to do so much damage now he's
6413s just moving away just trying not to get
6415s caught as the Flames are able to do so
6417s much damage while he's rotating this out
6419s and obviously he still has that free
6420s time to be able to pop that Shield pop
6422s that heal and maybe go for a reset here
6424s as we look at T225 here who has that
6426s advantage on him as well with that bloom
6428s and now still going to be able to rotate
6429s this in and he's just chasing A's Mike
6431s Mike not giving him a free opportunity
6433s here for him to capture a moment for
6435s that damage here as he's able to pop it
6437s and now he's back into this fight nice
6438s hits coming through from the fan as he
6440s finds a gold within it almost gets
6442s caught by it beautiful the damage coming
6443s through a C2 the from panan panan
6446s forcing K c225 to pop the ulti and just
6449s like that he's going to top pop his Mech
6451s he's going to get out of Dodge and he's
6452s going to try to see if he can go for the
6454s reset here he's trying his best he's in
6456s the me but it doesn't look like it's all
6458s that easy for him but Panda man is going
6460s to come in and pick up the elimination
6461s stealing it away from Mike beautifully
6463s done but now Mike he wants his revenge
6465s Pand man he turns around with that
6467s vertical blue Focus The N he sends it
6469s out mik's not ready for it he's not
6470s ready for the second one either Panda
6472s man having that Health Advantage now
6474s Mike he denies the cash off of that
6477s Parry managing to keep what he doing
6479s what is the ghost doing oh Mike has that
6482s bobbed bolt with the Venom tip he's
6484s trying to Chip Away pandan pandan gets
6486s parried he gets sent out he pulls out
6488s the pole sword the staff is now in
6490s Mike's inventory it's going to be a
6492s difficult situation for him to go for oh
6494s he goes to the infite he gets the lift
6496s but oh there it is and there it is pman
6500s take takes him down Mike goes down
6503s fortunately he did still have that vilon
6506s birds of might so he's not done just yet
6509s he's not been sent back to the lobby but
6512s panaman his second elimination did you
6515s see him walking around he literally was
6517s standing right in the middle of the
6518s fight who oh oh he literally standing in
6521s the middle of the fight while he's doing
6522s that and he's just like sitting there
6523s like hey I'm going to watch this fight
6525s real quick I want to see how this ends
6528s Fire gets hit by a Ballista coming up
6530s top getting a little curiosity and the
6532s curiosity killed the cat and sadly it
6534s killed the spider in this moment here
6536s where he almost got caught on Flames
6537s here and spider is going to be able to
6538s go for the reset goes back to it on T225
6540s but the solo Tara able to hold strong
6543s here and is able to capture an
6544s elimination here the solo Tarka in this
6546s game what an insane turn of events
6549s coming through here really given the
6550s love and support that we love seeing
6552s from the Tara uh supporters out here and
6554s obviously spider going for the chase on
6556s T225 he has to be careful though he's
6558s going to have to retreat as much as
6559s possible but spider is going to keep him
6561s right on the grasp here he's going to go
6563s for that Airborne hit he catches him
6565s with the blades the strikes coming
6567s through the damage is going to be
6568s absolutely lethal for spider trying to
6570s see if he can capture the damage he goes
6572s for the shield swap he's able to find
6574s it going Mike gets two he steals and
6579s catches a double a free elimination and
6583s he captures two Mike is in the league
6585s with four eliminations four elimination
6588s Mike he's not playing around he's come
6590s in today with almost 20 points to his
6593s name from those prefinal Seri games and
6597s he's already popping off he's cooking it
6599s up he is now on four eliminations oh
6602s look at him we're talking about the man
6604s himself he's cooking Akuma he's trying
6606s to find the opening with that stuff Mike
6609s eats a considerable amount of damage
6611s from those gold halberts Akuma jumps
6613s into the me looking to try and get some
6615s value as soon as he can Mike hasn't used
6617s his ultimate yet but he's managing to do
6619s a considerable amount of damage the
6621s dance back and forth between the pillar
6624s oh and he catches him on the entrance
6626s with that scale Rush Akuma hasn't healed
6628s up during the mech trying to do as much
6630s damage as he can but Akuma oh
6632s beautifully done he catches him with the
6635s jump power takes him down and here yet
6637s again we're seeing another performance
6639s from A's Mike in the realm of Yang going
6641s up against a and zeld ding zeling goes
6645s for that that catch with the horizontal
6648s manages to hold Dodge away from that 1 2
6650s three from Mike but he's not looking too
6652s good for him Mike he's doing so much
6654s work with this crossbow trying to get as
6657s much value as he can zeling he just
6659s manages to roll out avoiding that blue
6661s Focus after that uppercut zeling now
6664s he's trying to re-engage he's trying to
6665s find an opening for himself he manages
6667s to get one but unfortunately he doesn't
6668s go for that followup he doesn't manage
6670s to get it it's a little bit nervous he's
6671s trying to get as many as he can before
6674s his Oldtimer runs out but Mike he's
6676s still sitting very comfortably he has
6678s his ultimate available he still has a
6680s considerable amount of Health especially
6682s compared to zeling zeling he's trying to
6684s do as much as he can his Al goes down he
6686s uses his F to try and get on top of the
6688s pillar he tries to go for the horizontal
6689s catch but Mike reads it he finds him and
6692s there it is the uppercut coming through
6694s and zeldon gets taken down and Mike
6695s picks up his a fifth elimination of the
6698s game Mike is popping off with a very
6700s strong start coming through as he's able
6703s to steal two eliminations captures
6705s another elimination and now he has an
6707s amazing so Bloom to keep the game alive
6709s for himself here into this final Circle
6712s Mike's coming in with a lot of
6713s confidence as it looks like we're going
6714s to see Frost of this get a dub in the
6716s rebel gang as well now he also has a
6720s Mystic might on him as well here so that
6722s confidence coming through from a player
6723s like him absolutely insane but now for
6725s zeel and d zelan d and pandaman they're
6727s now on the ticking clock here our
6730s solo Tara with a timer on him and he has
6734s to get and capture an elimination for
6736s him to keep the game alive for himself
6738s here so that means the frost took him
6740s down in the real of
6742s Yang taking down P hey I mean they're
6745s both insanely good players frost on the
6749s Hadi slightly more of a beneficial match
6751s up for thei into the T but here we are
6754s we seeing it just unfold zeldin getting
6757s forced to use his a Pand man tries to
6759s find the catch with the vertical Panda
6760s man though zeling now forcing out that
6763s all using it very very early trying to
6764s get maximum value Panda man forced to
6767s use his own Al and he's immediately
6768s trying to disengage he's trying to turn
6770s around with those pistol shots Z he's
6772s trying to find the opening panan he
6774s turns around for that punch he doesn't
6775s manage to secure it unfortunately and
6776s zelink he's now dis engaging panaman
6779s likely going to cancel that ultimate try
6781s and save as much as he can he does have
6783s a little bit more charge than zeldin
6784s does but zeldin he's still desperate the
6787s desperation reeks he he reeks of it he's
6790s trying to find that Soul BL to try and
6791s stay in the game but pandaan he's not
6793s giving himself that opening but look
6796s what has happened Mike and unique the
6798s vultures are closing in the all the
6801s hyenas they smell blood in the water and
6803s zelink is taken down extremely low we
6805s have another player over here as well
6808s action and looking for the blood they
6810s can smell it seld he's dead in the water
6813s he's forced to use that F2 to try and
6815s disengage he tries to get a little bit
6816s of distance but pandaan and Mike they're
6818s all shooting him down they know he's
6820s weak they know he has no escape pandaan
6823s this is his moment he needs to find the
6825s elimination he gets the elimination can
6827s he get the soul BL though he does indeed
6828s he cleanses the yang
6830s and he's out of there not only is he out
6833s of there he's back in the game here
6835s doesn't have to worry about getting
6836s eliminated from the realm of Yang he is
6838s still in this and he is locked in he
6840s able to capture three eliminations tie
6842s it up with Akuma but they still have the
6845s matter of A's Mike five eliminations he
6847s has been playing out of his mind his
6849s timing has been absolutely incredible
6851s and clearly I don't see them really
6853s stopping any time soon this man is
6855s holding on to two gold fans right now
6857s he's got one currently on him and he has
6859s one just in the back pocket just just in
6862s case just in case if someone decides to
6864s pop off here maybe gets a free pair he's
6865s like that's fine I got to back up it
6866s ain't even no big deal don't worry about
6867s it exactly it actually allows him to
6870s take a risky a risky engagement he can
6872s send out that blue and he's not losing
6876s that gold fan cuz he's got another one
6877s in the back pocket he's ready and one of
6879s the good things about that is because
6880s he's playing zipping he doesn't have
6881s that combo breaker so he's not able to
6884s immediately jump out if he does get
6886s parried but it looks as though unique
6888s he's trying to jump out of this this
6890s situation he's being pressed up against
6892s this rock formation by The Zone he's
6894s trying to find the heal he'd been taking
6896s a bit of damage from a far from Mike
6899s he's going for that star ability he's
6900s trying to create some
6901s distance the range projectiles though
6904s they're chipping him down all that
6905s Health that he just healed up all that
6907s armor has immediately just been Stripped
6909s Away on his disengagement attempt he's
6912s trying his best to stay moving the B
6913s bolts are actually grieving him
6915s incredibly hard makes it very difficult
6917s to stay on the Move looks like sha he's
6919s mount his moment he jumps in with that
6921s grapple horizontal from that P sword o
6924s unique narrowly avoiding that damage and
6926s he's forced to use the ultimate he's in
6927s a horrible situation every single player
6929s lurking around sees that he's weak they
6931s see his ultimate has been popped and
6933s they are going to take this opportunity
6935s to try and take him down he's got a free
6937s opening here at a free moment here and
6938s it looks like he will be able to at
6940s least get his heals and shields back up
6942s here as looks like he's going to try to
6943s see if maybe he can strike on another
6944s player here but it's not going to be
6945s enough as obviously that hottie I mean
6947s if you don't have that if you if you're
6949s not good in terms of aim you know you're
6950s not going to hit your shots onti and
6953s unique uses that to his Advantage here
6954s looks like he's going to go inside from
6956s Down Under here has to be careful here
6957s this is where you almost get caught up
6959s by the th roll definitely does not want
6961s to get hit by this thorny roller in the
6962s first game as he has a free chance here
6964s but it looks like he will have to escape
6966s here from that Circle closing here as
6967s we're going to start to close in here
6969s onto our Circle Number Four got a minute
6972s and 25 left into the circle as they're
6975s going to start to close very soon here
6977s looks like we're going to get another
6979s chest here as they is the opportunity
6980s here as A's Mike looks like he wants to
6982s be able to go for it but he knows the
6984s other players are going to be nearby as
6985s they're going to push forward looks like
6986s Mike is going to be able to capture H
6988s gets the F key to pop for the shield and
6991s just like that is back yet again to do
6993s what he needs to and keep the game alive
6994s another gold fan he's got this man has
6997s three gold fans on his roster right now
6999s in terms of how this man is absolutely
7002s stacked okay this is a stack player
7004s right now the confidence is High I mean
7006s look at that no he has two he's only got
7007s two he's got he's only has two so he has
7009s du he has the gold dual hirs but he's
7011s got two gold fans on him talk about
7013s having some confidence here as it looks
7015s like here comes that b breath as a does
7017s get hit by that Bane's breath here
7019s trying to see if he can go for the
7020s rotation doesn't want to get caught off
7022s the outskirts here as it looks like he
7024s will be able to at least dip out of
7026s Dodge doesn't look like anybody really
7028s noticed that he did get hit by it as he
7030s has that free time to pop his shield
7032s keep the game alive GG sha going through
7034s a little bit of some shopping as well
7036s this timing though in this game has been
7038s electric flying in its first game truly
7040s it truly has and right now we actually
7042s see the leaderboard currently T225
7045s spider and zeling they all been knocked
7048s out in this game they've all been
7049s eliminated for the moment and now we
7051s have nine players remaining in the lobby
7053s now this this is going to be a hard
7055s situation for pandaman to translate into
7059s a successful finish to this game if he
7062s gets forced to use his ultimate or if he
7064s manages to take just a bit of damage he
7066s doesn't even have to lose all of his
7068s armor if he loses some of it and if the
7070s other player in close proximity is
7072s playing something like the zipping or
7073s the fer everybody in the lobby everybody
7076s in the vicinity is going to immediately
7078s look to focus him down as Tara is
7081s extremely vulnerable he doesn't have
7084s those mechanics those tools to find
7086s those disengagements one good thing when
7088s Mike did get hit by that Moon Bane he
7090s was able to disengage so well and
7092s without all that much risk because of
7094s the fact that he was playing zipping but
7096s here we are going back to a replay Frost
7097s of us up against pandan in the realm of
7099s yang Frost having forced out the
7101s ultimate from pandan extremely early
7103s this is very very good for frosters in
7105s the situation he jumps in with that
7108s triple charge Frost of as he's trying to
7110s catch him out the air panan he's trying
7111s to do as much as he can he's trying to
7113s do some fly swatting with this star he's
7114s trying to beat him down out of the air
7116s but unfortunately he's not able to get
7118s an insane amount of value but he does
7120s manage to mitigate a lot of the risk
7121s right now the effective health is rather
7123s equalized but he finds the uppercut
7125s Panda man unfortunately gets caught by
7128s the toes on the toes but by the fan
7130s upper and frost of us taking him down in
7132s the realm of Yang he was able to take
7133s him down here but panan is still alive
7135s successfully being able to capture that
7137s elimination on to zelan dig who also he
7139s also lost his realm of yangang hair and
7141s sadly he did get eliminated due to that
7142s fight and panaman was able to succeed in
7144s get in capturing that Soul Bloom and
7146s keeping the game alive for himself here
7147s so he's still going to he might have
7149s opportunity here to go against him into
7151s this fight here as we're looking at exan
7152s at the top sadly no eliminations for the
7155s man himself here last hope for J team as
7158s well but it looks like he still has some
7160s other players here to deal with if he
7162s has the opportunity here now we're kind
7164s of hitting the downside here and looks
7165s like panan has some soul blooms on him
7167s that could potentially have lead looking
7169s real nice towards his final Circle no
7171s Blue Moon is actually super slept on
7174s I've talked to quite a few people about
7176s this Soul Jade even before they changed
7178s it so now that with the soul Jade change
7180s theyve split it up into two there is one
7183s blue moon that is a just a base Soul
7185s Jade that changes your I think it's I
7188s might I'm not 100% sure is one of the
7190s two it's either your horizontal blue
7192s focus on the two3 or it's the vertical
7195s and then the other Soul Jade that you
7197s can get which is Blue Moon 2 essentially
7201s it changes the other one two 3 blue
7203s Focus but it also gives you that silence
7207s it gives you that extra effect when you
7209s use it but it only has two charges so
7212s it's it's a commodity essentially but
7214s here we are oh my Lord Wang Le Yang
7217s taking a considerable amount of damage
7219s from Mike with the the scale rushes from
7222s that purple pulur doing a considerable
7224s am amount of damage wangle Yang trying
7226s to stay airborne trying to stay on the
7228s moon as best he can it's a rather
7230s difficult situation but this is the kind
7232s of terrain that you can do exactly that
7235s this is one of those spots that you can
7237s potentially just kite for days
7239s continuously loot people around the
7242s building around these towers and you're
7244s able to stay on the move but Wang Le
7246s Yang he's kind of stuck he was forced to
7247s use this Mech he's forced down into this
7250s tunnel is not the best situation that he
7251s wants to be in but he manages to use
7253s those rocket boosters and jump on up to
7255s this R but Mike he's an absolute Menace
7258s right now the Venom tip along with the
7260s Bob bolt Soul Jade is cooking Wang Le
7263s Yang's Health B but it's not enough to
7265s leave him with very little to deal with
7267s he still has a considerable amount of
7268s effective Health to to work with for the
7270s moment and he's on the move he is
7272s cooking he is moving the Fancy Feet he's
7275s trying to stay out of sight out of mind
7277s but none of these players let disengage
7281s look at the movement coming through the
7283s scale Rush is being able to come from
7284s inside of that section goes out towards
7286s the wall sees a player near the top of
7288s the roof and obviously is able to
7289s Ricochet and keep that movement speed
7291s going a making it so so impossible for
7293s anyone to try to catch up to him though
7295s huge hit coming in for the P sword
7297s though on the Wang langang wangang does
7298s get caught in a tough situation here
7300s that P sword a very dangerous and really
7302s powerful weapon here probably I think
7304s some of the most damage that you've seen
7305s so far here as it looks like he's going
7307s to pop the ulti as well and either side
7309s to dip out the timing of that couldn't
7311s be any betterle wangang get a beautiful
7314s Parry to shut him
7316s down is able to capture his first
7318s elimination into this game number one I
7321s know that definitely has to feel good
7323s finally being able to succeed and and
7324s successfully get one elimination
7326s sometimes all you need is one to really
7328s get it popping as now we see J jing a
7331s top here he sadly has no eliminations
7333s and so does g Shaw um as well here while
7336s everybody else has at least one
7337s elimination from frost
7346s El player like A's Mike I mean I can
7349s imagine he could potentially double this
7351s as now we're going to see the circle
7352s slowly start to close in here ation
7355s trying to see not to get caught up here
7356s as he's going to pop his last Shield
7358s here or not his last Shield but at least
7359s the shield into this last fight here as
7361s it looks like we're going to slowly
7362s start to close it in as he's hanging off
7363s the side here never never giving anybody
7365s free opportuni same with frost ofis here
7368s as looks like everybody's going to be
7369s scaling rushing it up top
7371s here on the inside here unique down at
7373s the bottom Mike trying to see if he can
7375s capture it with frost ofis Frost it's
7376s the FK decides to go for the separation
7378s here takes the time not to be able to
7379s get that hit as well as he has to be
7381s careful here as looks like A's Mike is
7382s on the backstretch it looks like they're
7385s both oh it looks as though Mike may not
7388s have noticed Akuma here this is a rather
7390s funny situation they're literally in the
7393s SL of the Zone he's in the bush he's
7395s crouched in the bush Akuma is not
7397s visible for the moment it looks as
7398s though Mike just manage to check it he
7400s doesn't unless unless he's deliberately
7403s let him stay there because he just
7405s doesn't want the smoke he knows that he
7407s has he definitely does not want to know
7410s that he's there I wouldn't know I
7411s wouldn't want Mike to know I either want
7413s either of them to know that they know no
7415s sir just it's gentleman's agreement for
7418s the moment Mike he's chilling he is
7420s vibing he's got those five eliminations
7422s he's got that gold armor he's got a lot
7423s of help to work with this is his game if
7426s he can come into the first game and get
7428s a huge huge point game for himself it
7431s will solidify a considerable lead
7433s considering that he already had almost
7434s 20 points coming into today but oh my
7437s talking about considerable a that's a
7439s considerable amount of damage and Mike
7441s managing to come in with that fan
7443s vertical blue stealing away the kill
7445s taking him up to six eliminations in the
7447s first game unique still holding strong
7450s at the top of this roof Panda man he's
7452s taking initiative initiative now he's
7455s grappling up with that stuff he's trying
7457s to make something happen he's trying to
7458s stay on the move so that he doesn't get
7460s immediately lobbied by all of these
7462s players but we have seven players left
7465s alive in this final Zone sh running
7467s around with that P sword Oh's ultimates
7470s have now been popped Frost is flying in
7472s down below trying to do as much damage
7474s as he can B pop the he's poed that F
7476s he's trying to do the fire damage he's
7477s trying to get the punch he's trying to
7478s do all he can he can't manage to do it
7480s there he gets taken down Mike with the
7482s blistering Edge he's coming in he doing
7484s so much damage the poison Splash as well
7486s unique takes it home he takes the first
7489s face but I think we all know who's
7491s coming in with that mvp and that's going
7494s to be A's Mike with so many eliminations
7499s to his name in the first game ladies and
7501s gentlemen I mean are we surprised though
7504s I mean like we said before we knew that
7505s he was going to come through and
7507s absolutely pop off we knew the
7510s succession coming in from Mike he we
7512s knew that he was going to absolutely
7514s slay from the first game coming into
7518s this face here and obviously seeing how
7520s these games have been so far he read
7523s some of these players so well the double
7526s elimination from halfway through this
7527s game here really able to capture these
7529s moments here and obviously those realm
7531s of yangs were absolute dinner for him
7534s those are free plates it was an actual
7536s buffet and he took advantage of every
7537s piece of chicken there was meanwhile for
7540s some of these other players they were
7541s still struggling and scrambling but for
7542s some of these other players they still
7544s were able to find some eliminations MH I
7546s know for a a decent batch of them like
7549s had a tough time until he was finally
7550s able to capture his first elimination
7552s unique was able to stay alive towards
7553s that fight here maybe he's able to at
7555s least capture probably at least um I'm
7558s going to say probably two two to three
7561s points at least for placement but
7563s overall though unique I don't think was
7565s able to at least capture an elimination
7567s though which is very unfortunate for the
7569s first game I don't think so I don't
7570s think he was able to though towards that
7572s end cuz Mike was just stealing it was
7574s very hectic I think we'll go through the
7575s replay here we'll really get a chance to
7577s see how some of these players were
7578s trying to handle it towards the end here
7581s there's a lot coming through here for
7582s some of these play Styles here I mean
7583s look at the Players as look at that hey
7585s look at that the Hogs and love and
7587s support coming in from some of these
7588s players like we said before as they're
7590s going to be able to lock this in very
7592s surprising coming through from a player
7593s like spider spider like trying to keep
7596s it together here in some of these
7597s moments but sadly just was not able to
7600s here jdg Jang was not able to find
7602s elimination into this game I know Wang
7603s leang was able to get some get some
7605s eliminations for himself but spider
7608s definitely a little bit surprising for a
7610s player like him though I really thought
7611s that he was really going to come through
7612s and try to pop off here but he just got
7614s caught in some tough simulation
7616s situations very similar to T225 see one
7620s thing that I always have in the back of
7622s my mind is that in the past spider has
7625s voiced his his concerns with his own
7628s Tendencies and one of those very
7630s important ones was that if he has a bad
7633s start to a series Bad start to a day if
7635s he has a bad game one then it affects
7638s his entire entire series all the six
7641s games but he's been talking with his
7643s coach he said that he's been working on
7645s this and he's been doing a lot to try
7647s and change this this tendency and I
7650s think that he proved that he managed to
7653s obliterate that he he got that straight
7655s out of his mental and we can see that
7657s from day one group stage exactly the
7660s same thing happened in the first day of
7663s groups or solos we had Mike taking a
7666s huge huge point game in the first game
7669s of the day and then spider comes in game
7672s two and gets four MVPs back to back to
7675s back and we saw it again in the second
7677s day of spiders games in group stage he
7680s deliberately chose to go for a very very
7684s secluded spawn a very secluded droped
7687s all the way in the South with nobody
7689s else there so I think it might actually
7692s be the case that he's deliberately doing
7694s this that he's trying to he's been
7696s conditioning himself to have a slow game
7698s one and then pick it up in the following
7701s games so far the ties has been so well
7704s thought so far for some of these players
7706s even with that here still Panda man a
7710s player that we got a chance to talk
7711s about he was able to lock in some
7713s players he was able to do it and he gets
7715s a second place reward as well for it
7718s what a timing coming through with that
7720s 4.6 three eliminations he gets that one
7722s ranking point to get him into that
7724s second place slot right on top right
7727s under A's mik with six eliminations a
7729s 9.3 and a strong start for our number
7732s one Contender and our number one
7734s projected winner for these World
7737s Championships here for J cup but check
7738s this out unique staying alive he was
7741s able to pick up one elimination that 4.4
7744s is able to get him some elimin get him
7745s some points and get him up into this
7747s roster now he's no longer close to the
7749s bottom meanwhile down at the bottom
7751s spider selendi zero eliminations zero
7755s points a shocker for the first game but
7757s it is not over for them as well as we're
7759s going to check out the standings overall
7760s here as it looks like just like that
7763s started from the bottom we're sadly
7765s still at the bottom 6.5 coming in from
7767s uh here and we're still there and we're
7769s still there sadly it's okay we've been
7771s we've been in the slows before we end up
7773s getting back to the Hamptons very soon
7774s don't worry about it as we see pandan
7776s with that 10.4 a good decent start for
7778s him Frost with that 2.2 he still has
7781s some work to do here he still has five
7782s games left to make it happen let's see
7784s if he's going to do it but if we look at
7785s it right now 29.2 almost 30 points start
7788s coming in from A's mic
7791s 19.9 barely was able to at least get a
7793s decent amount of points from T225 but
7795s exgen with that fifth place slot here is
7799s able to keep going a little bit higher
7801s here as now he has that 14.1 and now
7803s he's slowly closing himself and I'm
7804s telling you this is the thing that we
7806s talk about when I mean with exan exan
7807s has been in these situations before he's
7809s going to slowly climb little by little
7811s by little I'm telling you by game five
7813s and six it's going to be interesting to
7814s see where he goes from it but let's
7816s check out the replays here com through
7819s one we saw that beautiful Parry coming
7820s through from wangang Air trying to see
7822s if he can capture the elimination on a
7823s GG Shaw and he was able to but here
7825s comes that third party from exgen as we
7828s look back towards the sweep here and
7830s Akuma trying to find the elimination
7832s onto Shing as he's able to captur it
7835s into this moment and then in that corner
7838s wangang gets caught by Mike in the
7840s corner just like a bully out of high
7842s school demanding you lunch money he says
7844s give it to me or else you're getting
7845s swirlies unfortunate coming through here
7847s as we look at it
7849s with that beautiful third party catch
7851s here then he ends up walking through
7853s towards it now here is one of those
7854s strong points that we were talking about
7856s earlier panan coming through with that
7857s beautiful third party is able to
7859s successfully capture that strike coming
7861s down towards it panaman decides to push
7863s in on towards that and is able to
7865s actually reward himself with getting
7867s that elimination finished that was the
7869s moment that even you had a moment where
7870s you freaked out you losted in that
7873s situation but here we go Mike with that
7875s two-piece the beautiful stretch to be
7877s able to capture both eliminations inside
7879s of that moment here and shuts down
7881s spider into that mix this was the moment
7884s for panan as well is able to capture
7885s elimination in the height in The Madness
7888s of everything was able to pick up the
7889s soul blue and capture the finish and
7892s here comes the final strke X trying to
7894s see if he can keep it together here he
7895s has the fire P start he's missing for
7897s meanwhile Frost is trying to see if he
7898s get some hits from the hottie but the
7900s outer skirts from those eliminations
7902s captures the poison to be able to hit
7905s some of those damage Peaks which
7906s probably was one of the reasons why some
7908s of these players like unique was able to
7909s do it but of course there's going to be
7911s an extra th000 for every single MVP and
7914s Mike's going to earn another rack for
7916s himself as we catch The Zing Ying
7918s animation there goes another $1,000 for
7921s you A's Mike with six eliminations and
7925s 24,000 damage look at the
7928s stats 8.3 on the fan 5.2 on the staff
7933s and 4,000 with the crossbow hey I was
7935s saying it I was pointing him out he was
7938s doing work with that repeating crossbow
7940s he managed to secure himself the Venom
7942s tip and the bar bolts the fact that it's
7944s now one Soul Jade as opposed to two
7946s actually brings up the power level of
7948s that Soul Jade setup and that weapon and
7951s when you're in a in a mattera where
7953s Hardy is a very popular pick having that
7955s crossbow you're able to do a
7957s considerable am amount of damage and
7959s this is now his sixth MVP I'd like to
7961s add six MVP so far in this tournament
7966s but hey you know what time it is ladies
7968s and and gentlemen yet again we're doing
7970s some answers for Treasures make sure to
7973s get your answer in the chat to this
7975s question the question is how many kills
7978s did this player secure in this match was
7980s it 0 to 5 a b 6
7985s C7 d8 or more 8 plus now make sure to
7990s get your answers into the chat only one
7993s lucky winner will be chosen out of the
7995s many that participate but that lucky
7997s winner is going going to be get able to
7999s come away with a random lucky box and
8003s potentially take some uh some very nice
8006s cosmetics in to game with themselves but
8008s on top of the answers here we got to
8010s give you guys a quick video before we
8012s get ready for our game number two we'll
8014s check back here in a
8018s [Music]
8027s moment
8051s fulfilling an achievement yet again as
8053s Mike definitely feeling it a little bit
8056s with the pressure of the crowd the first
8058s land as well everybody is here there is
8062s no question this definitely is the peak
8065s for naraka currently with how insane
8069s this is I mean like I said we have a
8070s packed almost sold out crowd here
8073s waiting to see who is going to be Crown
8076s Champion as we were able to go through
8077s our first game and A's might claims
8079s Victory amongst the rest of the players
8081s indeed I like that he he said
8084s deliberately that
8085s although in in the stadium because of
8089s the people there he thinks that he'll be
8091s more excited than NS and I think that's
8093s exactly what happened he you saw come
8096s out he yeah he was having a great time
8099s he comes down those steps and he's ready
8101s to go and he's having a good time that I
8104s think is one of the scariest times when
8105s Mike is having a good time when he's
8108s he's trolling he's laughing he's just
8110s he's just like content creator type yeah
8113s you know exactly you know when you're
8114s feeling yourself you're going to be
8115s performing a lot better in game and I
8118s think that ex that may have been exactly
8120s what just happened game one coming away
8122s with six eliminations H his sixth MVP
8126s throughout this tournament so much
8129s damage so many kills oh what a
8131s performance for absolutely not not only
8134s a great performance from him but I got
8135s to give it up uh also a great
8137s performance from unique trying to see if
8138s he can keep it alive here captures that
8139s first third place his top his first top
8142s three in general he has yet to get a dub
8144s so let's see if he ends up securing an
8145s MVP tonight that would be actually
8147s pretty amazing to watch him do that but
8149s got to give it up to our panan that
8151s strong pick that strong out of the
8154s pocket for the very first game here and
8157s hold strong captur some eliminations
8159s gets caught on the chopping block from
8160s the realm of G and is able to secure
8162s that elimination in order to keep the
8164s game alive for himself panan is here he
8166s is locked in and he is ready for
8168s anything these players are pushing
8171s out I I love that he came out with first
8174s game terer because he told me the crowd
8178s everyone lost it I lost
8180s it I um I literally was talking to him
8184s last night about his PS for today and he
8187s said that he might open with taka or
8190s that he might I mean I'm going to say
8192s now because it's I mean we're already
8194s here you know yeah he said that if he
8196s has a good good taka game the start off
8199s the day he's going to play another game
8200s of taka that's what he's told me he said
8202s that if he has a good start with taka if
8205s his first game with taka goes really
8206s well he's going to double pick it I'm
8208s not sure if he's going to double pick it
8210s in the I think he back to back I don't
8212s think he'll do back to back he'll
8213s probably end up doing him a little bit
8214s closer towards the end I think so it
8216s makes sense for him to decide to do that
8218s a little bit later knowing that he still
8220s has other he he still has other things
8222s that he has to do he still has other
8223s play styles that he has to make do for
8226s these next five games so he has to pick
8229s other characters he has to really think
8231s about how the rest of the games are
8232s going to go here expecting how these
8235s situations are going to go for some of
8236s these players here but the nerves are
8237s definitely kicking in but obviously they
8239s should definitely be settled locking
8240s into our game number two yeah no you're
8242s absolutely right unique is one of those
8244s but he is he's been one of the most
8247s stoic you know like whenever we see his
8250s face he's emotional he's locked in and
8253s he did an he I would like to applaud him
8256s for his performance in the last game he
8258s did a very very good job of holding his
8261s ground on top of that Rooftop in that in
8265s Plume Castle managing to hold it down
8267s prevent any of those advances from the
8269s other players to try and take that that
8272s advant advantageous situation that
8274s advantageous positioning he's able to
8276s hold it and he's able even though he
8278s didn't get all that many eliminations he
8280s didn't get eliminations he only got one
8282s at the very end in that in that scuffle
8284s in that hectic situation but he comes
8287s away with the first placement meaning
8291s that those three points along with that
8293s one kill with the multiplier that comes
8295s through in that final zone taking him
8298s into that third place
8299s spot well done
8303s advantageous advantageous okay okay okay
8306s I see you trying to make your words
8307s sound fancy there brother okay I see you
8309s I mean what what other word could I say
8311s it just
8312s advantages no it's an advantageous
8315s situation the situation and positioning
8318s was advantageous because it was good for
8320s him to be there you get what I mean all
8322s right I need a dictionary you doing too
8323s much I need a dictionary now that's
8326s crazy listen what of these play Styles
8328s and how these players have been going
8330s through it it's been so amazing to watch
8332s overall here I'm very excited to see how
8334s the rest of these games go for some of
8336s these play Styles is obviously they have
8338s been doing such an amazing job overall
8340s as we look here at the massive screen
8342s showing A's mic overall here we love to
8346s see it here as they're about to get
8347s ready to lock in for our game number two
8349s now some of the picks coming in were
8351s really really strong the question is are
8353s they going to keep that same momentum
8354s coming into this next game yeah one one
8357s really really cool thing is that T25 is
8359s sitting in second place this is a man
8362s who when I came to China I was expecting
8365s to see a lot from T225 has been one of
8368s those Heavy Hitters for a long time now
8371s he's been up there with Mike and spider
8374s everybody and he's been putting points
8376s on the board but unfortunately when he
8377s came into that group stage he wasn't
8380s able to do the do the same thing he was
8382s able to qualify obviously he's here but
8384s he wasn't able to to get a nice comfy
8387s seat at the top of the the leaderboard
8388s unfortunately he was struggling but then
8390s he comes into pre-finals locks in and
8393s gets a considerable number of points and
8395s it's now translated into a second place
8399s ranking for him currently after the
8401s first game absolutely insane here is
8404s obviously still being able to get the
8405s picks going here for some of these
8407s players there's still a hot there's
8409s still a whole lot coming into these
8411s moments here as now we're going to get a
8413s chance to go into our game number two
8415s and go for the lock inss for our players
8418s the question is what are players going
8420s to be picking and what players are going
8422s to decide yeah these play Styles they
8424s got to go well I think to be honest
8428s considering that the first three games
8430s are all not only holl off but daytime so
8435s no fireflies are on the map meaning that
8438s the only way to regenerate your alt
8440s charge without doing damage or just
8442s simply waiting for it to regenerate
8445s passively is by using those ra R
8448s stations the Firefly cages whatever it
8450s is that you'd like to call them so that
8452s inherently means that the game itself
8454s slows down quite a bit as players just
8457s simply don't have the same uptime on
8460s their ultimate abilities as they would
8463s with a firly map and there it is I was
8465s about to say I expect more of the same
8467s and there it is we have four zipping
8470s picked in the first round selection
8473s immediately going into the second stage
8476s with another three three fers meaning
8479s that after this phase that means that
8482s both fer and zipping are banned yet
8485s again meaning that in our last round
8487s selection our boys GG sha a Mike JT mein
8493s and zeling are going to have to pick
8495s something slightly spicy to go into the
8498s second game of the day and speaking of
8500s Mike pulls out the Justina ladies and
8504s gentlemen we have some fairies and
8506s zelink as well he's going to be going
8507s for the the Justina 2 two justinas in
8510s our game two what do you think about
8511s that it's going to be interesting with
8513s the justinas here going for those
8514s aggressive picks early it's going to be
8517s pretty interesting to see what they
8519s choose for later yeah they're forced to
8521s do that to problem you know that that's
8523s what makes this new format so
8526s interesting and so you know it just it
8529s makes things happen you still see quite
8531s a few players opting to go for the
8533s stronger characters on the map with the
8535s with the zipping in the faer in the
8536s first two sections but then it means
8538s that the third selection round you have
8541s to think what can I play here what works
8544s what's going to get me you know how can
8546s I damage control to this how can I go
8548s into this second game without
8550s essentially griefing myself but speaking
8553s of going into our second game of the day
8555s we are about to do exactly that we're
8558s going to be taking a look at what these
8560s players are choosing to take what
8562s abilities what F and V the alt and skill
8567s they are op to take into this second
8569s game of the day I'm expecting nothing
8572s too crazy with Justina though i' I vo my
8575s opinion that V3 is a relatively solid
8578s pick more so for triers than it is for
8579s solos because it slows you down just a
8581s little bit and V2 has been more popular
8584s in general and that looks as though that
8585s might be what is what they're going for
8588s both zeldin and Mike are now opting to
8590s go for that V2 both of them going for F2
8592s as well the combo break version of that
8595s ice block we have pandaan with that V1
8599s on the Hardy I don't think we're seeing
8602s any V2 Hardy I still have yet to see
8605s that come in to these games and then
8608s more of the same more of the meta
8611s choices for these other characters for f
8613s and for zipping nothing too spicy
8617s nothing too crazy and we're about to
8619s jump in to our third to our second game
8621s of the day and second game of the day
8624s here so well played out as we're seeing
8626s definitely a different stretch of the
8628s map here as we're seeing uh looks like
8629s Akuma is going to be landing inside of
8631s Salvation Podium we have at least four
8633s players heading towards Plum class that
8635s aquil's Crest is going to be an absolute
8637s blood bath of amazing fights here as
8639s we're going to see GG sha and a wbg
8642s spider on this far left side of yon
8644s ruins looks like they're going to be
8645s headed towards Mystic Misty forest and
8648s Bal Forest meanwhile J team's extent by
8651s himself on the far right side of imperal
8653s Village looks like that's going to be
8654s interesting for them to see if they can
8656s get some decent stuff looks like they're
8657s starting totem but nobody in city of
8659s Tang it is absolutely deserted matab no
8662s one nowhere to be found in those areas
8665s here so looks like it's going to be a
8666s lot of desert and a lot of snow in our
8667s game number two indeed we're going over
8670s it's it's getting a little cold but you
8673s know who thrives in the cold that's
8675s Frost of us ladies and gentlemen and I
8677s look I am looking to see him pop off
8680s this game but here we are off the rip we
8682s are looking at wbg spider and A's Mike
8686s got some justinas in in the mix another
8689s another character that thrives in the
8690s cold it looks as though wbg spider
8692s unfortunately has not managed to find
8694s himself an armor just yet but he does
8695s manage to pick it up the no Al Zone has
8697s come down and spider reads the opening
8700s from aw's Mike gets that parry and
8703s catches Mike on the whole Dodge tries to
8705s cross him up but spider's ready he
8707s catches him he C almost catches him on
8709s the secondary hold Dodge and there it is
8712s the weapon swop as Spider takes down oh
8715s game one MVP in the second game of the
8719s day what a strong start coming in from
8721s spider here you know that spider wanted
8723s to give a nice little bit of redemption
8724s after not having a great game in his
8726s first one but just like you said before
8728s his mental has been very important for
8730s him to work on over time CU you can tell
8732s it starts to affect him if those first
8734s games aren't going so well and clearly
8737s you could tell he worked on it with that
8738s amount of confidence being able to push
8740s in on a player like Mike and is able to
8742s successfully get that first elimination
8743s onto the board here now if you look at
8745s some of the other play Styles and some
8746s of these other players you're seeing
8748s where some of these play Styles go let's
8750s see if it's going to be very helpful for
8752s him here as we start to see that
8753s momentum start to shift T225 gets caught
8756s off the backstretch of wangang but T225
8759s is able to steal the elimination away
8760s from wangang all that hard work
8762s absolutely gone and now time for the
8763s fight as well pops open the ulti here to
8765s go for the heal immediately that does
8767s not work as he catches up off the outet
8769s trying to see if you can hold strong
8770s here nice H coming through from the fan
8772s as he's waiting for him to go from the
8773s outstretch but now he goes for the bait
8776s ends up backing up beautiful stretch and
8778s a beautiful wor ends up catching on the
8780s inside all the way up top and now the
8782s Parry comes through Wang is going to
8783s find it nice destruction coming through
8786s from The Shield almost catch some off
8787s the outskirts from this nice Hits From
8789s The Fan Wang leang absolutely decimating
8792s T225 but he does have that pull sword
8794s and one hit could change the game just
8797s like that for a player like Wang leang
8798s here so he does have to be careful
8799s depending on the approach of k225 as now
8802s he's going to try to see if he he could
8803s Retreat out of here doesn't want to get
8806s caught up in a b bad situation here and
8808s T225 is able to find himself a great
8810s Shield decides to back off but now
8812s spider going for the rotation trying to
8814s see if maybe he can capture it actually
8815s ends up missing the grapple but does
8817s have the opportunity here as now he's
8818s going to chase after quangang goes for
8820s the shopping tries to see if maybe he
8821s can get some stuff here and now the fan
8823s nice hits from the delang trying to see
8825s if he can hit some get some damage here
8827s and he finds k225 as well right next to
8830s him here as now wangang on that
8832s outskirts pops the Bell to see where
8833s anybody is as we look at another fight
8835s here between two hotties and it looks
8836s like sh with the ulti here trying to see
8839s if he can get some decent hits here it
8840s looks like he does pops open the no Al
8842s Zone and G Shaw is able to get out of
8845s there just in the nick of time indeed
8847s his ultimate was about to about to
8850s expire so it would I don't think it
8852s would have made too much of a difference
8853s but unfortunately he wasn't able to
8855s secure that that pop from from the from
8858s the three band Zone before he made it
8860s out but here we are heading back on over
8862s to spider and wangang wangang gets a
8865s beautiful Parry onto spider spider and
8867s immediately put on the back foot goes
8868s for that double jump into the old
8870s activation he's on the move he is
8873s speeding out of there he is zipping
8875s right out of there the namesake just
8877s speaks for him for itself and spider
8880s immediately now he now cancels his
8882s ultimate and he's able to save some of
8884s that ultimate charge and he is full HP
8887s but T225 and wangle yang don't want to
8890s let him get away with that they know his
8893s ultimate went down and it looks oh this
8895s is a really rough situation oh for both
8898s t v and spider spider reads the release
8901s from the blue Focus from that gray sword
8904s and he's not able to get the get the
8905s punishment unfortunately T25 is still on
8907s the Move he's still going his ultimate
8909s is popped he has his f up in less than a
8911s second can he get it off he goes for it
8913s he gets a huge Barry onto Akuma Akuma
8916s immediately gets chunked down so so much
8919s another Barry coming in for25 spider
8922s getting knocked down but Wang Le Yang
8924s manages to still pick up the kill onto
8926s T225
8927s securing the first elimination for him
8930s in our second game I got to give it up
8931s to T225 man three people right in
8934s between him he was fighting that for so
8936s long here getting double pares was
8938s absolutely beautiful speaking of that
8939s spider able to climb another Parry onto
8941s wangang here now it's a three-way fight
8943s and a threeway Chase as Akuma ends up
8945s getting hit by the backstretch from the
8946s spear coming through from Akuma now
8948s Akuma is on a different level of
8951s assertion the W key beautiful hits
8953s coming through gets the drag from the
8955s fan he says come here boy I want that
8958s booty and I want it now as Akuma trying
8960s to see if you can clutch this up here
8961s nice hits trying to see if you can
8962s clture it nice hit he ends up catching
8964s him but it's not enough as wangang is
8966s going to be able to steal the
8967s elimination away Wang leang able to do
8969s exactly what he needs to here in this
8970s moment this is what he's good for in
8972s this moment nice hits he has to be
8974s careful here cuz spider could really
8976s close this out as Wang Lang is able to
8978s pop the heal for himself here able to
8980s Capt him off the water here and now it's
8982s time to get wet as he does end up
8984s hitting some decent hits though from the
8986s spear it's a spear against fear here and
8988s he ends up he goes for the weapon swap
8990s the massive hits coming in from the
8991s heavy sword is able to get some decent
8992s damage here both of them waiting for the
8994s blue Focus waiting for the time strike
8996s on each one pops the FK to try to go
8998s over the sheld beautiful Parry to let go
9000s of that shield and now spiders on the
9002s rck skirt Wang leang is able to steal
9004s the gold now he has the advantage nice
9006s hands coming through spider trying to
9008s hold strong here beautiful armor swap
9011s timing Wang leang trying to see go for
9014s it the beautiful Parry on the right
9015s stretch he's going to go for the retreat
9018s he's not going to try to claim it he
9020s wants the elimination for himself Wang
9022s leang trying to hold strong spider
9024s dangerously low he needs to get out of
9027s Dodge Wang leang is not going to give
9028s him the opportunity it's time for the
9030s chase it's time for the cartoons it's
9032s time for the channel to turn as now he
9036s is trying to find the moment here to
9038s capture this moment beautiful scoop he
9041s captures him with the blue Focus he
9043s tries to go for the back strats
9044s beautiful Dodge from it thean is able to
9046s capture enough dangerously low can
9048s wangyang secur the elimination not
9051s enough he pops open the F key both of
9053s them still fighting this out this is the
9055s issue between zus Zing but it's not
9058s enough as wangang secures the
9061s elimination on to spider that was a
9064s beautiful fight coming out from both
9066s wangle Yang and spider beautifully done
9070s both of you played this so unbelievably
9072s well he spider unfortunately though he
9075s does go down once that rebirth expires
9079s so he has been eliminated from the
9081s second game but here we are we're back
9083s into the action immediately we have a
9085s Mike up against this hardi up against GG
9088s sha in the realm of Yang he gets that
9090s opening he goes for the Parry leveraging
9092s him his F he avoids the damage but
9095s immediately gets caught on that Dodge
9096s out of the ice block and GG sha is's
9099s able to equalize the effective Health
9102s both of these players now immediately
9104s popping their ultimates both of them
9106s going for for that reset not immediately
9108s looking for the engagement Mike uses one
9110s of his dashes already he's only got one
9111s remaining with that V2 V2 only has two
9114s as opposed to V1 having those three but
9117s if he manages to catch him once if he
9119s manages to go through he's going to get
9120s that freeze but it looks as though he's
9121s not able to do so GG sha still has a
9124s little bit time left he's able to get a
9126s little bit of value and now he's in an
9127s advantageous situation GG sha he's
9129s looking the win this he gets the Parry
9132s onto the nunchucks catches Mike he's
9134s going for the tag Chase he's going for
9135s another Parry unfortunately doesn't get
9137s that confirmation GG sh he gets punished
9139s for his misre he goes for the double tap
9142s do though beautifully done he does have
9144s his F still up and ready to go and there
9147s it is he takes down Mike in the realm of
9150s Yang he was so dangerously close in that
9153s moment those movement Dodges coming in
9156s from him did that so well for him that
9159s timing couldn't have been any better
9160s because if he missed any of those Dodges
9162s Mike wins that in any situation Mike
9165s wins that if he misses any of those
9167s Dodges that was just how close that game
9170s could have been cuz the one I tell you
9172s there's a reason why I was like uhoh
9173s uh-oh uh-oh if you miss out on that
9175s Mike's going to take advantage of that
9176s every situation every step of the way
9178s meanwhile back at of here obviously when
9180s it comes to Mike taking advantage he
9181s will take that Advantage as he comes
9183s through and he goes for the rematch on
9184s shot not looking good as he ends up
9185s getting scale pushed twice ends up
9187s getting hit by the Dual halber he's
9189s going to keep the same emotions What A
9191s Catch coming through here as Shaw he's
9193s going to keep the same Retreat coming
9194s back towards it he's not going to stop
9196s anytime soon nice hits coming through as
9197s the F comes through the hottie trying to
9199s see if he can R rotate this out now it's
9201s time for the slow down now it's time for
9203s the cool down everybody starts to back
9204s up now it's time for the Tango it takes
9206s two to tango sometimes it takes one to
9208s be able to dance by yourself and
9209s sometimes it takes three and three is
9210s the crowd as it could be a third party
9212s coming from ex here but it looks like
9214s we're still going through the T of a
9215s Tango as it looks like now he's going to
9217s capture himself an audience here as Mike
9218s trying to see if he can get some hits
9219s here coming the but the shaw is going to
9221s find the spear he finds the Parry he
9223s finds it in that moment but Mike is
9226s still going to be able to keep it strong
9227s beautiful hits coming through but the
9228s third party comes through now the hot's
9230s going to decide to dip out as we see a
9231s for fourth party same thing with Mike
9233s Mike decides he doesn't want any any of
9234s this action at the party he's going to
9236s dip out of here he's immedi he's used
9237s his ultimate he's is one of those
9240s characters he's playing Justina so he is
9242s able to conserve a lot of his ultimate
9244s charge by simply not using the dashes
9246s but he needs that Soul Bloom to be able
9249s to cleanse this Yang depletion that he
9251s he managed to get himself from GG sha GG
9254s star still has a minute and 20 seconds
9256s to play with this Vilan bird might so
9259s he's taking those risks Mike though it
9261s looks as though he got stunned by the
9263s icicle but thankfully thank oh thank all
9267s that is good that he does not get
9268s spotted out cuz that would have been a
9270s very very bad way to go he is able to
9274s find that reset and get that disengaged
9277s but I can't say the same for GG sha GG
9279s sha immediately getting engaged on by
9281s Panda man Pand man also in a very
9283s difficult situation on that hardi he did
9285s get taken down in the realm of Yang by
9288s it appears J team's action action
9291s managing to take him down in the realm
9293s of Yang action also having that
9295s Vermilion Birds might is now found his
9297s Target Mike oh but action getting a lot
9300s of damage oh Mya the
9305s ballista going to he gets the
9308s elimination from the ballista the third
9310s party comes in but he's well down the
9313s street he says I still want some action
9315s I want some fire let's start a bar again
9318s Mike such an unfortunate situation for
9321s himself did you see that Parry as well
9323s that he did that was so beautiful but
9325s unfortunately he just was not enough to
9327s keep himself alive he does go down in
9330s our second game with zero eliminations
9332s but Akuma picking up a cheeky one for
9334s himself now finding a soul Bloom and
9336s some loot to call his own but now we're
9340s heading on over to xg's wangang after
9342s having taken down spider earlier on in
9344s the game he is now sitting on three
9345s elimination looking to try and make it
9347s for zelink on a SL of health so
9350s unbelievably low he finds himself a
9352s white armor though he has gotten that
9354s armor Swap and immediately alleviated
9356s some of the pressure but that pressure
9358s is coming knocking on the door zel
9360s forced to use his F2 to try and stay
9362s alive but he doesn't read the release
9364s here but Wang leang yes sir he does he
9367s gets that Barry onto chuing forcing him
9370s to use that ultimate Wang leang is going
9372s to try and hit this Mech out of it he's
9374s going to try and get it get a chi down
9376s but it's going to be a difficult
9377s situation as he's only got just his just
9381s his weapons no abilities there to try
9383s and Chip down this me is going to be
9385s difficult and they going to be people
9386s looking for that third party choang he's
9388s trying to get as much value as he can
9389s but he's not able to really find it as
9391s they are looking at the bottom of this
9393s Tower Wang leang able to dip in and out
9396s and it looks as though Wang Le Yang is
9397s going to do exactly that oh even with
9400s that timing as well here was able to
9402s take that moment into that exertion here
9405s and obviously was able to force him to
9407s use his ulti not only for healing here
9409s but potentially maybe to capture an
9410s elimination but it's not going to be
9411s enough as now the game is tied between
9413s ection and a wangang three eliminations
9416s to pop for those two players here as
9418s we're going to get our second real of
9420s Yang coming through here as it looks
9422s like they're going to try to see if they
9423s can fight this out meanwhile unique
9424s going for the heals and deciding he's
9426s going to go for the repair it looks like
9427s he has his sights on jdg Shing curious
9429s to see who's going to be hopping into
9431s and it's going to be GG Shaw versus El
9435s the sea and A's Last Hope Frost ofis has
9439s the time to go bur let's see if he can
9441s freeze them down as they're going to go
9442s Airborne here Frost ofis decides not to
9444s follow suit with it tries to see if he
9445s can capture some hits from the bow
9447s seeing his Jo GG Shaw is going to scale
9449s all the way down towards the bottom nice
9451s hits trying to see if he can find it
9453s nice hits from the numchucks here trying
9454s to see if he can read it GG Shaw is
9456s going to be able to hit that as well the
9457s F ke almost hits him for it forces GG
9459s Shaw to pop the ulti here he's frus
9462s might be in trouble here trying to see
9463s if he get SC rush it all the way up top
9465s here this is where the problem comes in
9466s on why HTI is so good that
9468s unpredictability but catches him and
9470s almost cancels it out but the Parry
9472s comes through to shut that down
9474s beautiful reset from the Faria Frost
9475s ofus is able to read that very well
9477s dangerously low from Sha nice hit coming
9479s through here as he's able to claim it
9480s but it's not enough here as Frost tries
9482s to capture him and now now he's caught
9484s without his ulti hits him with the first
9486s cannon shot the question is can he keep
9488s the game alive as GG Shaw is able to try
9491s to get some heals and some shields for
9492s him as he's caught inside of the corner
9494s trying to maneuver out he gets one can
9497s he get the second one to capture the
9499s finish off of this flare yes he does as
9501s Frost is able to capture the elimination
9503s and get his second win in the real of
9504s Yang woo beautifully done from frost
9507s ofous my boy taking that realm of Yang
9510s dub and securing himself some gold
9514s nunchucks and that Mystic might that is
9517s going to be feeling real good under his
9520s belt GG sha unfortunately does not
9523s manage to stay on the Move doesn't
9524s manage to avoid those turret shards but
9526s it was because Frost ofus created such a
9529s considerable lead for himself at the
9532s beginning of that fight he won the
9534s initial PRI game he was able to force
9537s sha into a bad situation where he has to
9539s use his ultimate rather early and it was
9542s just fundamental he was cooking at that
9545s point and he takes home the D but it
9546s looks as though Xin also took home the
9549s realm of Yang dub for himself he's able
9552s to secure that missing might and the
9554s gold staff as well and speaking of the
9557s gold side is doing some damage to Chu
9558s Zang over here having only had blue
9560s armor he's trying to make something
9562s happen he's trying to fight off the
9564s advance from exin with that Mystic might
9567s he has that damage reduction so he's
9568s able to take some rather risky risky
9571s fights risky engagement he catches him
9572s with the grapple on that whole Dodge
9574s though the explosive armor is going to
9576s prevent the advance from chuang but here
9577s it is again chuang he's continuously
9579s fighting him off the retreat is not just
9582s running you have to fight back otherwise
9584s you're just going to get
9587s all the way down to zero choosing a
9589s beautiful display of K here out of this
9593s very very nicely done absolutely well
9596s made here as it looks like akuma's going
9597s to find GG Shaw gets hit with some
9599s decent damage here Shaw on the timer now
9602s 2 and a half minutes plus trying to see
9604s if if he Capt an elimination here put on
9605s a player like Akuma it's not going to be
9607s easy as he's going to try to see if he
9608s can rochade this up here Akuma goes all
9610s the way towards the top k l c225 trying
9613s to see if maybe he can scare rush it up
9614s top tier trying to time it but it looks
9615s like bew decides going to di out of here
9619s maybe another for elimination here but
9622s he has to play smart here he two and a
9624s half minutes left on the clock here and
9626s the clock is slowly clicking down for
9628s him here and it's not good for a player
9629s like Shaw he's been playing and trying
9631s to figure this out here has 10 points to
9633s his name one elimination and this could
9634s be the fight that he's looking for here
9635s as he finds unique unique down at the
9637s very bottom here this could be a free
9638s elimination for Shaw but let's not count
9640s him out the beautiful hits though coming
9642s through from the Dual Albert trying to
9644s time it he will explore it the Ricochet
9645s coming through from Faria Faria trying
9647s to see if he can rotate this out not
9649s trying to get caught up as well and he
9651s goes for the shimmy the shake and the
9652s shimmy down trying to see if he can get
9654s out of the way and obviously dodging all
9657s of the Maneuvers that GG Shaw is trying
9659s to give him here for that damage here to
9661s secure an elimination here and now he
9663s finds stretch here towards it nice fky
9664s to time of the reset beautiful hits with
9666s that but the fky is going to be able to
9668s find his way and Shaw caught in a tough
9670s situation here is able to do the exact
9672s same thing loses out on it the shield is
9674s able to do so much here and he open the
9677s forcing Shaw to try to back this off
9679s here he's dangerously low but it looks
9680s like they're both going to go for the
9681s reset real quick indeed it looks as
9684s though he's going to he's trying to play
9686s around the pillar he's trying to dance
9687s around sha he's trying to make something
9688s happen while he still has the
9690s opportunity to do so he does get a huge
9692s amount of damage that gold weapon that
9695s legendary Rarity is doing so much for
9698s the damage coming out of that Hardy
9700s ultimate he manages to take off almost
9703s all of that shield from 5 to1 unique but
9705s unique immediately jumps into that F
9708s Mech it looks as though sha may have
9709s broken his ankles though it looks as
9711s though he has lost him and it cancel his
9713s Al as well GG sha coming in it doesn't
9716s look as though he's got the resources to
9718s heal back his armor he is on the advance
9720s he's forced to use his F ability he gets
9722s cooked by the release on the vertical
9725s and unique manages to pick up the
9726s elimination for himself unfortunately
9729s though he did have poison splasher he
9731s does continue to take a little bit of
9732s KCK damage after he exits the Zone but
9735s it looks as though Wang leang he's not
9738s interested he's looking to come in and
9740s stock up on these resources before they
9743s head into the final Zone into this late
9746s game situation he's very happy with his
9749s three kills he doesn't need to push it
9751s speaking of some comfortable situations
9753s Frost of us on that on that fer with
9756s that gold nunchucks and purple armor he
9758s too is sitting in a very comfortable
9760s situation another character that has
9763s scaling based off of the weapon Rarity
9766s that you are holding when you use your
9767s ultimate so he's going to be doing a lot
9770s of damage with that F ultimate going
9773s into this end game definitely going to
9774s be putting in some damage here let's see
9776s if he's also timing it well with some
9778s other stuff here as we're do to see the
9779s random vein breath start to hit as well
9781s here doesn't look like anybody's
9783s realistically in that space here as it
9784s looks like xgen and ug's panan looks
9786s like they're going to be nearby trying
9788s to see if they can capture this gold
9789s shield it's going to be very vital for
9790s him here as the bow shots coming from up
9792s top making it hard as it looks like exen
9794s is going to successfully capture the
9796s shield and decides to back out of that
9799s situation does a fantastic job of that
9800s as well here takes the time to do what
9802s he needs to here in that moment and exan
9805s working towards that as he has three
9807s eliminations to his name he is one of
9810s the top players but he's got some good
9812s gold and some good silver a good purple
9814s Loot on him as well it looks like he's
9816s going to op out for the gray bow okay
9821s okay it's interesting choice for the
9822s great bow here it's possible that that's
9824s all he's found it might it might be the
9826s case and in that situation that's
9828s actually really unfortunate but you know
9830s what stranger things can happen in that
9831s situation here as it looks like we're
9832s going to go back towards jdg Shang has
9835s his ulti trying to see if he can find
9836s some decent stuff here looks like he's
9837s founded something for his repair
9839s potentially might be able to repair
9840s something here to get the game going
9841s here as it looks like the Bain's breath
9843s is successfully out of there does look
9845s like it really claimed any bodies which
9847s is uh it's okay it happens to the best
9849s of us here and you know we'll try again
9851s that just immediately made me think of
9853s that conversation that we had about Moon
9856s B in the end game so one of the one of
9859s the mechanics in the game currently is
9862s that in normal rank game so in normal
9864s Herald's trial we have all of those all
9867s those three moon banss in the shop that
9869s are purchasable so you have the blue the
9871s purple and the gold in the shop that you
9873s can buy however in Immortal wall you can
9875s only buy the blue but enough enough of
9877s that for now we're going to be jumping
9878s onto a replay we'll talk a bit more
9880s about that in a moment if we have time
9882s Xin against pandan in the realm of Yang
9885s getting a beautiful jump Harry onto Pand
9887s man's blue Focus release forcing him to
9890s use that ultimate and try and disengage
9892s or potentially try and find a an Avenue
9896s of of Entry here to try and Chip down
9898s Xin but it looks as though Xin he's
9900s ready for it he is yeah no Panda man
9903s you're not on the Fire Dog you are not
9905s on taker I'm cooking you with hardi here
9908s and he does exactly that and takes home
9910s that realm of Yang dub very nice for him
9914s but we're heading back on over to the
9915s alive game we've got frost and Akuma
9917s scrapping it out at the edge of the Zone
9919s unfortunately Frost ofus is not able to
9920s find the connection with that pillar
9922s from the V3 and Akuma manages to
9925s disengage for the moment for the moment
9927s as I say the cannon shot coming in doing
9928s a chunky amount of damage but Akuma he's
9931s able to stay on the move he is playing
9933s zipping and he is looking to zip away
9936s from this situation but he's stuck on
9938s The Buttery rocks it's very difficult to
9940s move he's slipping he's sliding he's
9942s trying to get away he's attracting more
9944s and more attention the further into this
9946s Zone that he goes but hey he's on that
9949s zipping this is why we see this
9951s character get picked up so so often and
9954s he's able to get that full reset with
9958s with still 20% of his ultimate to spare
9962s insane decent amount of time here to be
9964s able to do what he needs to here as it
9965s looks like we just saw a split happening
9966s between Frost ofus and it looks like
9968s Wang leang that was currently into this
9970s fight here as it looks like now he's
9971s going to be able to pop his shield here
9973s b b nearby has to be careful as Wang
9975s also has looks like a pistol as well
9978s decides to back that off here and now
9979s we're still on this rotation here A's
9982s Mike officially out of this game here so
9985s it's definitely going to be a new winner
9986s and spider also out as well so it's
9989s going to be interesting to see who takes
9990s the dub so far wangang definitely
9992s caughting caught up here with that three
9994s eliminations and those 23 points in
9996s total extion three eliminations as well
9998s to their name
10000s 17.9
10002s so with that amount of timing with that
10004s amount of exertion
10009s as TR if this gapost here but it they
10013s want to collect connect any of their
10015s weapons here yeah actually I might have
10016s taken that back here is actually got a
10018s little wildly close here waiting for
10020s that opportunity to try to see if it's
10021s strikes here but let's see if maybe they
10022s capture the bait as well towards this
10025s and it looks like he's still not trying
10026s to here Frost ofus is the type it's like
10028s I wish he
10029s would
10032s me this sort of playing the playing the
10034s footsy game going back and forth dancing
10036s around trying to find an opening for
10038s themselves it's rather hard to do though
10041s you don't want to leave anything on the
10042s table you don't want to leave a an
10045s exploitable mistake and speaking of
10048s Akuma immediately gets punished by
10050s unique the turnaround Parry beautifully
10053s done sending him deep into that storm
10056s Akuma now yet again on the back foot
10059s trying to find that disengage trying to
10062s find that reset but hey yet again we are
10065s seeing the prowess the potential of
10068s zipping Ying able to constantly be on
10070s the Move whilst resetting that is the
10073s main strength of this character you're
10075s able to use that ultimate use that F
10077s ability to stay on the move but speaking
10079s of staying on the Move unique he's
10081s unable to do that and he gets stuck on
10084s The Buttery rocks yet again sliding down
10087s and just gets absolutely blasted by this
10091s pistol I'm not 100% sure exactly who
10094s picked up who picked up that elimination
10096s AKA it was Akuma Akuma was able to pick
10098s up that elimination he eliminates um uh
10101s unique in that situation very tough to
10103s be able to call that most likely be able
10104s to find the Replay for that later but
10106s Circle six slowly closing in in 20
10109s seconds 20 seconds is where the things
10110s are really going to start to push off
10112s here as now things slowly trying to find
10114s it out here as JD saying trying to see
10117s if they can find some Cannon hits as
10118s well here prus is able to go through the
10120s heels here trying not to get caught and
10122s sadly Frost ofus does In This Moment
10124s Here and Now Frost is trying to fight
10126s this out nice hits trying to see if he
10127s can push him off the cliff though from
10129s the shots but the Cannons is able to put
10131s a lot of damage onto impress has to be
10133s careful here as he pops over the Al and
10135s now he Dees the dip out that's not going
10136s to be enough as T225 secures the next
10139s elimination into this fight two
10142s eliminations for the man himself in the
10144s top three situation 23.3 and he's almost
10146s tied with Wang leang ready to take the
10149s second place slot away from xcg top
10152s player for their solos here as looks
10154s like T five decides to go Airborne gets
10156s a nice hit onto pandaan now they're
10158s going to try to see if they can scale
10159s this one down what goes up must come
10161s down in these moments as the circle
10162s slowly starts to close in here let's see
10164s if they can find the moment here for
10166s that Rift as the to starts to hit and he
10169s calls the totem out as well jdg uses
10172s this moment here to go for the heals
10173s here let's see if they can create some
10174s type of moment here and he does get some
10176s hit though from Akuma and it's not going
10179s to be enough as Akuma cast elimination
10181s onto shazen destroys them in seconds and
10183s now they have tied up with Wang
10185s and ex here slowly Circle trying to see
10189s if they can find the moment p man is
10190s going to be able to pop the UL here
10191s trying to see if they can dodge from
10192s everybody gets a nice hit onto Wanga and
10194s decides to di out of that moment here
10196s definitely doesn't want to give him the
10197s free elimination here panan has a free
10200s moment here to himself here and it looks
10201s like way end up getting absolutely
10203s destroyed off the outskirts here for and
10205s the pop the pop the ulti here getting
10207s the Q as well and the F but it's not
10209s going be enough damage is able to create
10210s so much as well away from it is you have
10213s to be careful here even towards that
10215s beautiful double Parry from Wang Le
10218s trying to keep them away from getting
10221s the elimination onto xgs Wang Le yangang
10225s beautiful reset as well towards this the
10227s crowd absolutely shocked there panan is
10229s getting hit from the damage from the
10230s outskirts here he got to be careful here
10232s meanwhile xgen going for the heal same
10234s with Akuma Akuma trying to see if maybe
10235s they can find it it's not going to be
10236s enough as c225 tries to see if he can
10238s find the moment though but it looks like
10239s he will be able to try to see if he can
10240s close in this Gap here between Pan Man
10242s Pan Man dangerously low I don't know who
10244s necessarily destroyed
10246s onto this one try to see if he can find
10248s it but it's not going to be finds his
10250s four elimination or technically that's
10252s his third as he takes over second place
10254s away from Wang leang here but there
10256s still is the spot for First Place SE is
10260s able to send fall almost on the
10262s outskirts of the circle both of them
10263s fighting up top meanwhile there's
10264s another team on the outskirts up getting
10266s destroyed by AKA AKA trying to see if he
10268s can find a wang Lang all the way up top
10270s here using the tree too there's
10272s Advantage both of them down lakuma going
10274s for the heal to five has the both
10276s defense off the side here the B sword
10278s able to do a lot of damage they start
10279s going chasing both of them trying to see
10281s if they can find beautiful Parry from
10282s wangang W is getting slipped away from a
10287s get here but it's not going to be a as
10289s they both stay alive towards this game
10291s both of them tying this up
10293s here so many eliminations a pop for some
10296s of these players this was anyone's game
10300s coming through they played that so well
10303s the timing couldn't be in any better for
10306s some of these moments here but that's
10307s just how tight it is as drg Zuma is
10311s going to successfully claim game number
10313s two as Akuma that play style that
10316s unpredictability from a player that
10318s we've seen before he waits until the
10320s final Circle ends he sees the moment he
10323s sees it and he also catches the
10324s eliminations off the back of Wang leang
10326s off the back of another player here he
10328s takes those vulnerable moments that some
10330s of these players are having and he
10331s starts to claim them for himself that's
10334s he how he was able to secure it towards
10336s the end cuz in reality it could have
10337s been anyone's game wangang has been in
10339s this situation A many of times and we've
10341s seen him do it time and time again but
10342s this time it's off the back of drg Zuma
10345s mhm hey spider Mike not managing to stay
10350s alive and keep going in this second game
10353s but hey Akuma T25 Wang leang all of
10358s these players able to come in and take
10361s full advantage of these situations boys
10365s locked in wangle Yang he is he's laser
10369s focused he was performing so
10372s unbelievably well in that game we had
10374s that amazing fight with spider do you
10376s remember that that lasted for like three
10379s four four minutes it was crazy I'm going
10381s to be honest in that realm of Yang I
10383s thought none of them were actually going
10384s to get the elimination both of them were
10385s going to actually have to go out and
10387s start fighting their soul blooms that's
10388s what I thought what's going to happen
10389s hey this guy with that with the staff
10392s back and forth you know next to the next
10393s to the leg as well oh my Lord this this
10396s man absolute Beast unfortunately for
10399s spider the fight went on just a little
10402s bit too long and he gets taken down
10405s before the rebirth CH or the rebirth
10408s that he has you know he gets taken down
10410s before he's able to actually use it it
10412s gets it it just it just expires it's
10415s gone you know you got to be careful that
10416s realm of Yang when the realm of Yang
10418s spawns that means there's no Second
10421s Chances there's no second lives unless
10424s you make it in unless you make it into
10426s the RM of Yang and take a dub or even if
10428s you lose you still got another chance to
10431s pick up that Soul Bloom and try and
10433s cleanse that Yang depletion and those
10435s Yang depletion situations in this game
10438s well they they were painful you know
10440s they were hard I mean it was definitely
10441s painful for some of these moments here
10442s as I mean just players just really
10444s getting bed by this felt like this right
10447s in this situation here it's definitely a
10449s lot harder to see how some of these play
10450s Styles can really become the advantage
10452s or the disadvantage depending on the
10454s circle now obviously that could have
10455s been a vertical play uh Circle in that
10457s final Circle here but it just gets just
10459s a little bit off the off skirts of that
10461s tree which gave Wang leang that
10462s opportunity to stay up top he was
10464s fighting it out with another player
10466s making it harder for some of these other
10467s players down at the bottom to try to see
10469s if they can scale Rush up because if
10470s they missed that opportunity they're
10472s losing some of their HP on the outskirts
10474s of the circle too early and that's the
10475s one thing you don't want to do going
10476s into that final Circle very surprised
10478s though by the amount of uh by the amount
10481s of ultis that got popped before final
10484s Circle ended I really thought it was
10486s going to be just a magnitude of the
10488s usual ultis that we usually see in these
10490s moments here but so many people was
10492s pushed to the edge so many people was
10493s pushed too close they had to pop it
10496s early and literally I don't think there
10498s was a single person that literally had
10500s no way of getting that as we look at the
10502s top score Akuma five eliminations nine
10505s points for his game score here Wang
10507s leang that consistency doing him so so
10510s well in this moment T225 rounds it out
10513s with three eliminations in that .4 and
10515s tying it up with exen with another 5.4
10519s both of them tying it up I'm telling you
10521s exgen slowly creeping up in this ranks
10523s here as Akuma is able to capture his
10526s first dub of the game he gets himself a
10528s nice rack that good band as well ,000 to
10531s the name himself and sadly sadly where
10534s is spider one point where is A's Knik at
10537s the very bottom with zero eliminations
10539s that is very tough here as we look at
10540s the standings overall here and still
10542s starting from the bottom we're still at
10543s the bottom but for Unique went up one he
10546s went up one
10548s point went up stared from the bottom
10550s we're still close to the bottom but
10552s we're still up there because we're
10554s friend the up and up let's pop some samp
10557s I'm kidding um as we look at more of
10559s that as well here very surprised to see
10561s spider in that Seventh Place position
10562s with a zero points and a one point that
10565s is surprising to see but A's Mike also
10567s getting zero points as well here but
10568s look at this wanglang 6.2 25.4 T225 25.3
10574s there slowly closing in this Gap this
10577s this is exactly what Wang Le Yang needed
10579s that fight that he had with spider
10582s taking out that one big heavy hitter and
10585s Mike getting taken down as well this is
10587s exactly the game that he needed to try
10589s and accelerate his lead going up the
10593s leaderboard getting to that 6.2 in this
10595s Lobby hey beautifully done now able to
10599s secure his second place or continue it
10601s cuz he was actually already there he was
10603s already in second place to to start off
10605s with today he came in he had 17.6 or
10608s something along those lines Mike had 19
10610s point something so he was already in
10612s second place but hey he it was it was
10614s looking a little dire for him when uh
10617s when Mike popped he he he popped off in
10620s the first game he went absolutely insane
10623s and now wangyang he's able to he's he's
10625s been able to claw it back just a little
10627s bit just like I was able to claw able to
10629s go back that you know don't drop that
10631s listen even with that as well here as we
10633s look back at the replays here coming in
10635s from our game number two a Mike is able
10637s to hold strong here he tried as hard as
10639s he can but wbg spider was able to be
10641s victorious in that first fight beautiful
10644s play style coming in from spider here as
10646s he's able to catch the combo and capture
10647s the elimination in the first game here
10649s meanwhile Frost ex trying to fight this
10651s out but that P sword is a dangerous Mama
10654s Jama here and he comes through with the
10656s slammer as WB wangang is able to come
10658s through with that third party and
10659s capture an elimination wangang played
10661s some of these moments so well way for
10664s the timing and was able to succeed in
10667s Catching some of these eliminations and
10668s when he got down to the 1 V one he was
10670s able to snatch those eliminations well
10673s coming into this space now look at this
10674s this was my moment here where he ends up
10676s coming through he's got a tight Corner
10678s he's got a tight space he's got that is
10681s a Pinacle moment here as Akuma coming
10684s through with that unexpectedness like we
10685s said before akuma's going to be a
10686s dangerous player I'm going to be honest
10688s with you guys if it wasn't for Action I
10690s would have said drg Akuma could
10691s potentially win this Akuma he's been
10694s knowing that he's he's improved so so
10697s much for so hey I mean Akuma his name
10699s changed quite a few times you know and
10701s we're not a lot of us you know we
10704s remember him as different names but he's
10706s here as Akuma and he's been doing so so
10710s well I he was another he was another
10712s person that I actually got to fight last
10713s night in zeran he's such a funny guy
10716s he's very very happy when you know when
10718s the great thing is when they're with
10719s their when they're with the with the
10721s other players you know they're having
10722s some fun they're having some Banda you
10724s know they're all they all look very
10725s scary and serious right now but he's a
10727s he's a very he's a he's a lovely guy
10729s he's a joker it was nice to spend some
10731s time with him as well but here we are we
10733s got the MVP statistics for our boy
10739s 16.6 th000 damage that's a lot of damage
10743s 5.3 with the fan
10746s 3.32 with the bista we don't see that
10750s stat very often ladies and gentlemen but
10752s 3.3 damage damage ballista that fire
10756s damage was able to do a lot here
10758s obviously almost topping it off from the
10760s fan here but let's look at that real
10761s quick Sky Force and W and wind wild wind
10765s spout coming through with that
10767s helpfulness of the long sword sap
10768s Juggernaut a splitter and melee resist
10770s obviously that Juggernaut really being
10771s very important for a player like like
10774s Akuma here going through multiple people
10775s at once here as we got a chance to see
10777s some of the replays here as Mike ends up
10779s getting caught same thing with spider
10781s getting eliminated a little bit early as
10783s we see the fans and expectancies coming
10785s in from drg drg able to play this super
10788s super well so far here and like I said
10790s before we love to see it that is an
10791s order in the court order in the
10795s court that was a moment that we love to
10798s see coming through as Akuma was able to
10800s do that you
10804s charged judge charged for being caught
10807s outside with the with the fire and the
10809s ballista you're
10812s sentencing I'm sentencing you I don't I
10814s will sentence you big boy I will
10816s sentence
10818s you but hey we're going to be moving on
10821s over into our third game of the day
10823s relatively soon and they should have
10824s never gave me this Hammer they should
10825s have never gave me this Hammer this
10827s dangerous very D dangerous um but yeah
10830s as I was saying this is going to be our
10831s final game of Hol off so once this next
10835s game this third game finishes up we
10838s going to then be moving on to the Morris
10840s aisle so that also means it's going from
10844s daytime no no fireflies two fireflies
10847s afterwards so all of those sort of reset
10849s characters all those Survival characters
10851s for hollo need to get picked up here but
10853s we're going to have to wait and see for
10854s now yet again you know the drill ladies
10856s and gentlemen answer for Treasures make
10858s sure to get your answer to this question
10860s into the chat to have a chance at
10862s securing some goodies some cosmetics and
10865s the question is which player got the
10868s most kills in this match if identical
10871s the one with the most damage dealt will
10873s win this is a rather difficult question
10875s so was it a xcg wang leang was it B DG
10879s Akuma was it c o w n zeldin or was it d
10884s o u and man is it is it really I mean
10888s it's a 50/50 because whoever got the
10891s most kills if it's identical it could be
10893s the
10894s most were you paying attention were you
10896s paying attention ladies and Gentlemen
10898s let's see but you also need to pay
10899s attention to the chat I hopefully they
10901s are paying attention and just with that
10902s paying attention you also need to pay
10903s attention into this video as we're going
10905s to get ready to lock in with with our
10906s game number three and our halftime for
10909s the J cup J cup has always been a story
10914s in the making of a whole year of Nora
10918s honestly I think if we're talking about
10919s the highlight of Jacob Grand finals we
10921s have to talk about the fact how it's not
10923s just CN leading the meta but it's other
10925s regions that are having a huge impact
10928s just a bit but it's not going to be
10931s enough I think there's a huge flot line
10934s on mik spider this is a storyline that's
10936s been going for an entire year spider
10939s lifted the Trove last year but everyone
10941s said well would you really be able to do
10942s it if Mike was here Mike came along
10944s Mike's here oh my there it is and Mike
10947s with the grapple combo into Phoenix blaz
10950s takes the second game of the day CM kind
10954s of had counted hottie out as a hero for
10956s solos oh nicely he cat them inside of
10959s the face this is the opportunity to get
10962s the finish and this could be the
10963s opportunity that he's Wai but it was the
10966s enemy players who came over and showed
10968s them just how dominant of force that
10970s hottie can be I'm definitely going to be
10972s keeping my eye on wangang as well I mean
10975s the guy is an absolute demon so does
10978s wangang and wangang is going to actually
10980s eliminate viper out of this game as well
10983s zel is another player who's absolutely
10985s inspired me as well zel didn't now on
10987s the Tesa able to find a huge Parry to
10990s convert into that repulse damage
10991s catching Frost I think Frost is the way
10994s for where you able to earn the respect
10996s of all of these other regions I want to
10999s say thank you to frost ofus for not only
11001s just continuing to follow in the
11003s Stepping Stones set by other players in
11005s the na and sea region and continuing to
11008s lay that foundation and prove that it's
11011s not just Cen who controls the meta I'm a
11014s te
11016s F so much of a barbecue hey can I get on
11020s number three like always baby as now
11022s it's going to start to skip through the
11024s sand siphon comes in they're going to
11026s quarter them off the outside Roy HEI
11028s trying to stay alive but it's not going
11029s to be enough s te is going to be
11032s victorious in your game number two this
11034s is a team that I've been following for a
11036s very long time this is a team that I
11038s have a lot of respect for this is a team
11040s that was playing something that wasn't
11043s entirely meta before it became the meta
11045s in fact they would have want to sort of
11047s innovate it having a lan teleport your
11049s entire team is an absolute Touch of
11052s death the te play perfectly every single
11056s region coming through informing The Meta
11059s and all of these players having to adapt
11061s on fly as they get here and realize that
11064s hey our region is not the only dominant
11067s region there is I think that's super
11069s incredible and speaks a lot about how
11072s exciting this Jacob's going to be what
11074s are you doing here M wants to try and
11077s shock these kills he's playing the
11080s F2 the kill the
11082s MVP let's go yes big dog that's what I'm
11087s talking about BBE come for the other
11089s regions lady and
11098s [Music]
11112s gentlemen
11121s [Music]
11133s [Music]
11157s [Music]
11165s ladies and gentlemen we are back here
11167s live and Direct in Chang Duke China as
11171s it is the world championships for the
11174s jcup 2023 I am your host and Caster D
11177s alongside Dunkin Donuts and so far we've
11180s had two explosive games so much has been
11183s happening the damage and the dodging and
11186s also the eliminations has been
11188s absolutely electrifying here in a packed
11191s out Stadium here in the arena it has
11194s been amazing so far we still have four
11197s more games left as we're about to get
11199s ready to get ready for our game number
11201s three and our halftime for the J cup
11205s expectancies has been very high for some
11207s of these players before for you Duncan
11210s you have seen how these players have
11212s been you've gone down to the player room
11214s you've watched them play you've seen the
11216s 1 V ones you've seen them tackle a lot
11218s of different play Styles and practice
11221s overall with these two games you've seen
11224s a lot what do you think needs to happen
11227s for some of these players in this game
11229s three I think that a lot of these
11232s players so one of the things that I saw
11235s when I was when I've spent time in the
11237s practice room with these players is that
11239s when they're there they're having fun
11241s you know they're enjoying each other's
11243s company they're enjoying the game
11245s they're enjoying playing you know
11246s they're all crowded around one computer
11249s watching one of their friends one of the
11250s other Jacob players play into somebody
11253s else whoever it might be you know and
11254s they're all just they're swapping
11256s they're getting in and out the seat you
11257s know they're having a good time that's
11259s cute it's he's sitting on on the other
11261s guy's lap you know it's it's it's is
11263s about fight no but that's the thing This
11266s Is War it is that's the thing that's the
11269s thing that you have to remember though
11270s is that nobody performs well when that
11275s the anxiety all of those negative
11277s feelings you know it's not good you know
11280s like we talk about Mike he's scariest
11282s when he's having a good time and I think
11284s that that's what some of these players
11285s need to remember that they're here
11287s because they love nraa they're having
11290s like they made it to Jacob finals you
11293s know you have to maintain good mental we
11294s talked about it so so so much you need
11297s to not let those nerves get to you that
11299s anxiety could be the death of you in
11301s these games and if all you need to do is
11304s just take a deep breath and relax and
11307s recognize that you're you're you're
11309s alongside all of your friends all of
11310s your Rivals and you're having a good
11313s time you're still there to win but you
11315s got to remember to have a good time and
11316s you got to remember to keep a calm and
11319s steady head and not panic in those
11322s difficult situations because around
11325s every corner is another one of those
11327s players looking to take home the dub for
11330s themselves and they're going to be be
11332s fighting for it with all they it's going
11334s to be interesting to see how some of
11336s these players are going to keep that
11338s same mental here as we look at a player
11340s like Wang leang it looks like his mental
11342s has been pretty good he's been keeping
11343s his consistency very strong alongside
11346s players like Akuma alongside um ex as
11349s when as well here as we're able to see
11352s it come through here Wang leang in
11354s second place here with that
11356s 25.4 but T25 is right behind him by
11360s 0 one points he is so close between him
11365s and T225 it is ridiculous meanwhile EX
11369s in that 19 points so he still has some
11371s work to do if he's going to see himself
11374s in that top top score Mike is on an
11377s interesting block because now everybody
11379s is going to focus on making sure that
11381s Mike does not get any more points they
11383s want to get him out early that gives
11386s everyone the opportunity to secure not
11389s only the dub get those extra points and
11392s get those early eliminations that's why
11394s those first two minutes are so unital
11396s for this for these games because they
11398s focus on getting those early picks
11399s quickly because once it gets close to
11401s those final circles they're doing
11403s everything they can to stay alive but
11405s it's going to be interesting to see how
11407s these forced picks and these bands are
11409s going to change the rest of the next
11411s half that we have for a point let's see
11414s what happens in this game through Pi
11415s absolutely no this is this is one of the
11418s deciding factors just as you said now
11420s that it's the third game it's the third
11422s pick and ban phases it's it's it's make
11425s a break you know it's going to be a lot
11428s it's going to be a lot of difficult
11430s decisions to be made it's not an easy
11433s it's not an easy call you can't call
11435s this without really thinking about it
11437s you have to be on the ball you have to
11439s be trying to recognize what the rest of
11441s the lobby is looking to put forward into
11442s this game
11443s and also still considering what you're
11446s leaving yourself going into the second
11447s half so you're absolutely right and I'm
11449s excited to see what we have what these
11452s what these players have cooked up for us
11455s going in to our third game of the day
11458s our the grand finals here live in the
11462s stage man it's incredible it's truly
11466s just it's a dream come true not only for
11468s the players for like for me for you for
11472s all of us all these people in the crowd
11474s all of you watching home you know it's
11475s just it's it's amazing it truly is and
11479s I'm so thankful that we all get to be
11481s here and share this experience together
11484s here we are with the first round
11485s selection we has we have jdg chuang
11488s pandaman unique Frost ofus all going to
11492s be picking their characters first off
11495s the rip and I am excited to see what
11497s Panama's going to be picking up here I'm
11499s I'm assuming the fer I would assume the
11502s fer considering that he's gone TKA Hadi
11505s fer fer is going to be a good pick going
11508s into holl off oh no he's going to be
11511s opting for the the zipping here now this
11515s is an interesting pick from pandaman
11518s because I'll talk about I'll talk about
11521s it a little bit more in a little bit
11523s coming through from the indeed the
11525s triple Faria yet again so Faria and
11528s zipping now banned out for the final
11531s selection phase and it looks is though
11533s spiders going to be locking in the
11535s toada ladies and gentlemen this is our
11539s first tocada of our series the rest of
11541s the lobby is playing we have one Z from
11544s zeldin we have those Hardies from the
11547s other players T25 Akuma and Wang leang
11549s all picking up that hardi but I'm uh I'm
11552s interested that Pand man has opted to go
11554s for this zipping here F seems to it's
11558s definitely I'm not no no I'm more
11561s interested in seeing why zel and did
11562s pick
11563s on top of that seeing the teada coming
11565s through seeing him pick that early Zing
11568s was picked in the first two games by a
11569s lot of different people now he has the
11571s opportunity he's been holding on to a
11573s Zing he hasn't popped his Z ping yet so
11575s he now has the opportunity to use his Z
11577s ping in vital moments meanwhile
11578s everybody else has a scramble to try to
11580s pick up heels this gives him a really
11583s big advantage in this moment so the the
11585s thing that I that that comes to mind for
11587s me is that Del zelink has shown us that
11590s he uses he likes to use the Podi
11593s strategy where you drop on that Podium
11596s where you can unlock the puzzle and
11598s secure yourself that legendary weapon
11601s and on z z is one of those characters
11604s that yet again we've talked about this
11606s already that their ultimate scales based
11610s off of the Rarity of their weapon
11613s therefore Z with a gold weapon off the
11617s rip is going to be tearing through the
11620s lobby and that's exactly what happened
11622s in the group stage he managed to take
11624s down spider and have a huge game we had
11628s like I think he had four four kills or
11630s something like that he didn't manage to
11631s translate it into a huge multiplayer by
11633s using placement unfortunately but he
11635s still managed to put points on the board
11638s there it is his average points for his
11640s zick is 3.8 that's not too bad he's been
11643s doing it he's been doing pretty well
11645s he's got the strategy locked in and I
11647s think that's why he's opted to play for
11648s this because we don't have that Podium
11651s on moris Isle we don't have the ability
11654s to secure yourself a legendary weapon
11657s early on in the game unless it's Holo
11659s that's it Podium and that's the only way
11662s that you can do it before the first
11663s round of Yang that's the only way that
11664s you can secure yourself a legendary
11666s weapon but spider picking up the teada
11668s definitely an interesting pick I'm not
11670s too
11671s sure I mean it's it's difficult so the
11674s reason why this is a difficult pick to
11676s really stomach going into this Lobby is
11678s that we have so many Hardis hardi
11682s although he can be somewhat fought off
11684s by deada with the blades it's still very
11687s very difficult for him to do so but here
11689s we are going to be jumping into the game
11691s and let's let's talk about these spawns
11694s dby it's going to be interesting with
11695s we've seen unique NG fighting this out
11697s in the city of Tang immediately we have
11699s 's Frost ofus and we have K's Akuma
11701s immediately headed towards salvation
11702s Podium we might be seeing a Ballista
11704s battle immediately off rib as ug's
11706s Panama man is going to be landing inside
11707s of Plum castle inside of the quail's
11709s Crest it looks like it's going to be a
11710s differently side Circle here as it looks
11713s like is he off the
11715s map excuse me it does look like he's off
11718s the map he is off the map I think there
11719s might be a perspective a perspective
11722s thing there I'm not too sure or maybe he
11724s just waited until the last possible
11726s second and it didn't manage to register
11728s he was still waiting to choose but
11729s zeldin has spawned in very close to A's
11734s mic and J te's Xin solo zi it's it's
11739s surprising to see to see zeling not go
11741s for the podium that's kind kind of
11743s exactly why or that's that's been
11745s everything that he's been opting to try
11747s and do when he's been playing s every
11749s single time he picks it up he goes for
11751s the podium drop so that he can secure
11753s the legendary weapon but we're going to
11754s have to wait and see if he's going to be
11755s running straight over there but run now
11757s we have wangang and chuang scrapping it
11759s out wangle Yang in the advantageous
11761s situation he's got the most health but
11764s it looks as though he's immediately
11765s turning around spider gets baited into a
11767s Parry wangang gets the grapple combo
11769s unable to get the follow up off to the
11770s blue Focus but it's still a lot of
11771s damage he goes for another one but
11773s fortunately for spider he's able to read
11775s it he reads the release he gets the
11777s Parry but unfortunately he's not able to
11779s do it yet again Chu Zang coming in and
11781s picking up the kill onto wbg spider
11784s wangyang trying to come in and steal
11785s that Soul BL trying to steal that
11786s elimination unable to do so but he's
11788s running now onto chuang he's chipping
11791s him down but it looks as though he's
11793s going to take this disengage angle for
11795s the moment he's gone over to wbg
11797s spider's body to try and pick up some of
11801s these resources but ch he's not done yet
11803s he's looking to re-engage he knows he's
11806s got the momentum he's trying to find an
11809s entry point and there it is he manag to
11811s get decent amount of Chip damage he's
11812s forced to use his F though unique coming
11815s in with the third party from behind with
11817s those musket shots looking to try and
11819s focus down chuang unique he's not
11822s looking to chase it down it looks like
11824s but he's still in the vicinity will Wang
11826s leang look to chase down chuang it looks
11828s as though he might be it's rather
11832s everyone's very close to each other but
11833s nothing's happening just
11835s yet taking the time for the rotation
11839s here not getting caught up by the bow
11842s coming from unique here as it looks like
11843s we're going to be able to go through
11844s towards that as we see two white armor
11846s is coming through on both players here
11848s from Akuma and T225 as T225 loses it
11851s we're in the in stretch here and we have
11852s to be careful though nice hits the
11854s beautiful double coming in as Akuma is
11856s going to be able to find it here with
11857s the dagger dagger and Akuma best friends
11860s for life trying to see if they can hold
11863s strong here as it looks like he's still
11864s going to try to find it here and it
11865s looks like even with that timing here
11867s T225 just trying not to get caught up
11870s here a beautiful section here trying to
11872s wait for this nice strike beautiful F
11875s Focus time strike to be able to do what
11876s he needs to here as he pops the ulti to
11878s dip out K trying to rotate this out here
11881s probably won't get hit by the thorny as
11883s the thorny was able to surpass just in
11885s the nick of time here T225 trying to
11888s rotate this in goes back towards the
11889s outstretch but it's not going to be
11890s enough as Frost finds the first
11892s elimination of this game and now he's
11894s fighting this out with Akuma Akuma
11896s deciding to pop the F decides to try to
11898s back off this goes for the fake decides
11899s to still push on this and immediately
11901s gets hit by The Shield though Frost is
11904s trying to see if he can keep the game
11905s alive and ins up getting destroyed by
11906s the dagger downs from the dagger Akuma
11908s trying to find it as now he pops open
11910s the ulti trying to scale Rush goes for
11912s the psych you lose you thought buddy o
11916s you thought she was nice not today and
11918s it looks like Ros still ends up getting
11919s caught on both sides here from the
11921s slashes with a long sword waiting for it
11923s here but the shield is going to keep him
11924s alive here as he's going to try to see
11925s if he can go for the rotation here
11927s waiting for the time and he's just
11929s playing him little by little here
11931s waiting for the ulti depletion to go
11933s away and it looks like he's going to
11935s decide to go airboard and dip out Akuma
11938s with his ultimate expiring he's now in a
11940s rather difficult situation as zipping
11942s just has more agency when it comes to
11944s this kind of fight now frostos having
11946s that effective Health Advantage having
11948s that better armor he's looking to chase
11949s him down but speaking of chasing down
11951s Mike he's looking to chase down T225 T25
11954s already having used his F2 and now
11956s forced into using that ultimate Mike
11957s having got the got the catch with the
11959s horizontal on the nunchuks able to do a
11962s considerable amount of damage and now
11963s forcing out the alt he's looking to
11964s chase him down T25 he does find the arm
11966s swap fortunately for him he's not forced
11968s to to heal up for a considerable amount
11971s of time Mike though he doesn't have his
11972s ultimate T25 in a really good situation
11974s he does have a little bit more time on
11976s his ultimate still Mike he's getting
11978s chipped down lower and lower can5 do it
11980s he does indeed manage it and he takes
11983s down Mike picking up his first
11985s elimination of the game and Mike sitting
11987s on two already so far in this game now
11990s forced to go over to the rebirth alar
11994s and he's forced to try and reset but hey
11996s Panda man my boy picking up his first
11999s elimination of the game on the zipping
12002s so this
12004s is is there
12006s reaction okay no not not so much but one
12009s thing I was surprised about with pandan
12011s is that because he has essentially been
12014s a t player for a very very long time it
12017s means that inherently he's adopted to a
12019s play style that revolves around not
12022s necessarily getting too crazy and too
12025s aggressive off the rip whereas zipping
12027s is one of those characters that does
12029s look to do that zipping off spawn is one
12032s of the strongest in the game as you're
12034s able to stay healed up so unbelievably
12036s well but looking at this combo spider
12039s he's putting him in the blender the
12042s demon come out to play but spider he's
12044s getting knocked down by all of these
12046s other players the third parties are
12048s coming through the zipping is out of
12050s danger but spider he's been put in a
12052s really bad situation he tries to use the
12054s Last Blade to try and stay alive the
12057s last one he has nothing left and he gets
12061s taken down and griefed by these players
12064s the zipping able to survive even though
12067s he should have been taken down
12069s unfortunately for spider he gets focused
12072s at out of these players but hey that's
12075s what comes with playing a character that
12078s doesn't have disengaged tools that is
12081s exactly what we talk about all the time
12084s these players if they see that you're
12085s one of those characters that just simply
12087s doesn't have that and under the under
12090s their belt they're going to focus you
12091s down if you're a talker if you're a
12093s teada if you're just a character that
12095s doesn't have anything at their
12096s disposable you you're getting taken down
12099s you're take getting taken down big dog
12101s and it's very very rough situation but
12103s it is what it is but we're heading over
12105s into the realm of Yang very soon and it
12108s looks as though Frost is coming he's
12110s he's coming into play that's a tough
12112s situation here seeing as though spider
12115s really does try to rotate this in as it
12117s looks like we're now we're going to be
12118s able to go into the realm of Yang but
12120s the timing of spider and obviously that
12122s third party really could have been a
12123s switch of the dynamic depending on if he
12125s was able to get that Shield swap or not
12127s but he struggled to find it in that
12129s moment here as the third party started
12130s to come through and he wasn't able to
12133s really secure getting the swap also
12135s making it a lot harder for him to
12136s continue to go with that next fight now
12138s obviously coming through towards this
12139s zending trying to see if he can time
12141s this as well but it's not going to be
12142s well thought out as Mike is just going
12145s to try to get these beautiful hits the
12146s times can't be any better beautiful
12149s exertions coming through from the spear
12151s as he's just going to try to see if he
12153s can capture it as well beautiful reset
12155s coming through I mean he's just
12156s absolutely destroy is able to play the
12159s game like an absolute Master you want
12162s your watching is a master at work and
12164s coming from a player like A's mic we can
12167s learn a lot from a player like him
12169s meanwhile frostman inection trying to
12170s fight this out inside of the real of
12171s Yang night hit coming through as he's
12173s almost able to capture the combo
12174s captures on the outskirts beautiful head
12176s shot from the bow right into his face
12178s here says what's up smile for the camera
12180s click click boom and a beautiful par
12183s timeing couldn't be any better as Frost
12187s this or extion is able to claim that
12190s elimination inside of the realm of Yang
12193s captures the vilian birds M and has the
12196s opportunity to capture maybe a free
12198s elimination as well meanwhile sadly
12201s Frost ofus now on The Chopping Brock it
12203s is ice code for him and let's see if he
12205s has the opportunity here to maybe close
12208s in a free elimination capture Soul Bloom
12209s and keep it going as we're looking at
12210s shazen shazen getting caught on the
12212s juggle from GG Shaw Shaw able to play
12214s that super well captures the hit coming
12217s through from The Shield here trying to
12219s hold it strong almost capturing the jump
12220s Perry but it's not going to be enough GG
12222s Shaw trying to see if he can read the
12223s opportunity here and waits for it maybe
12225s for the chance to get the strike as now
12226s he catches him nice hits coming through
12228s the juggle backstretch trying to come
12230s through beautiful hits from the long
12231s sword both of them dangerously low it
12233s really is anyone's game but sing is
12236s going to find the hit eliminate Shaw and
12239s just like that Shing has two
12241s eliminations on the board meanwhile
12242s Frost has caught in a tough situation
12244s with his third party between mikee and
12246s another player nice H's coming in from
12247s the long sword beautiful strike to
12249s capture he captures the juggle he it
12252s together waits for the ulti the ulti is
12254s able to do enough he pops the FK able to
12256s do a lot Frost the dual blades able to
12259s capture a lot of moments here inside of
12261s this he captures the Parry inside of
12263s this the third part's able to capture
12265s the beautiful reset coming in from Faria
12267s catches him off
12269s the it protects it and captures the
12271s elimination question is can he keep it
12273s going and captures it onto unique it's
12276s not looking good for him he goes for the
12277s scale and unique is going to capture the
12280s elimination and stops the rain of Terror
12282s from Mike but he will be back he will
12285s indeed be back the crowd going
12289s absolutely crazy with Mike making these
12292s insanely insanely good plays absolutely
12296s absurd how well he's been playing these
12298s situations so so much work has gone into
12301s today and Mike he's he is showing it off
12305s for everyone to see it looks as though
12306s he's now been he's now found himself in
12309s another engagement against aen ation
12312s reading the release just holding strong
12314s with that horizontal catches him on the
12316s whole Dodge Mike now swapping over to
12318s the P sword using this defensive
12320s properties to try and keep himself alive
12321s but it looks as though he's stuck in a
12323s really bad spot he gets caught yet again
12325s by the horizontal immediately going into
12327s ter form after using his ultim action
12329s he's ready with the pistol oh the bow
12332s excuse and he takes him down ladies and
12335s gentlemen Mike stopped in his tracks by
12338s X shin and now Xin he's got four kills
12341s he's just like hey Mike you got four
12343s kills bro all right let me take that
12344s lead from you big dog let me take it for
12347s you let me hold that plays that so well
12350s in this moment in that incredible
12352s situation here as we look at a replay
12354s coming through here nice hits though as
12356s he tries to see if he can find it
12357s wangang just sadly missing out on these
12360s moments here as it looks like the
12362s numchucks are able to do so much
12364s beautiful to catch him on the out skirt
12366s here and it doesn't look like it's not
12367s going to be enough action playing the
12370s game of his life so far far and that is
12373s a beautiful display of why ection is one
12375s of the top players why he's in this top
12377s three why he's playing this well and he
12379s definitely could and we could one
12381s absolutely 1,00% see him absolutely
12383s dominate this and look at the amount of
12386s weapons that he has he has three gold
12388s weapons on him and three purples this
12389s man is feeling it the confidence is
12392s there action is dangerous he has woken
12394s everybody better back up and get ready
12396s because action's ready to strike
12398s absolutely Akuma not having that that
12402s that exciting of a game so far he's only
12404s managed to get himself one elimination
12407s for the moment but we know Akuma he's
12410s he's he popped off in our previous game
12412s and I'm assuming he's looking to do the
12414s same here there are still a few players
12417s left alive but far fewer than we've seen
12420s in the previous first and second game
12422s there are only four players left on the
12425s map and it's only second Yang all four
12429s of these players could legitimately all
12431s go into the real of Yang and we'd have
12433s two fights going at the same time it
12436s looks as though chuang has or somebody
12438s has a bounty on X Shin X Shin coming out
12442s of plume Castle heading over I'm not
12445s sure if he's positioning for the Morris
12446s blessing or for the realm of Yang since
12449s they're they're kind of close to each
12451s other they're kind of overlapping it's
12453s hard to really say but Akuma definitely
12455s looking to try and go into this realm of
12457s Yang he's playing the hardi he knows
12459s that this is his opportunity you know
12462s when you're playing these characters
12463s that have such strong dueling potential
12466s you want to be taking those Realms of
12468s Yang as they are your best chances of
12471s securing more eliminations and more
12473s points and getting yourself up that
12475s leaderboard but it looks as though exin
12477s is also looking to do exactly that he is
12479s now faced with 521s unique on the
12483s zipping unique he's definitely in a
12485s decent spot he's got some he's got some
12487s soul JS he's got that purple staff and
12489s the purple musket so he's not he's not
12492s missing too much but action he has been
12494s popping off like crazy he is feeling
12496s himself on this far he catches him with
12499s the horizontal does the combo is a
12501s little bit he's not full true but that
12504s one is ladies and gentlemen he is
12505s sending unique for a ride the carousel
12507s coming in with the grapple the beautiful
12510s combo coming out from Xin he tries to
12512s catch me goes for the the read on the
12514s release goes for the Parry oh but s is
12518s unique and it looks as though a is going
12519s to catch him yet again the the the F
12523s coming in but oh baby the half charge
12526s xtion he's just it's
12531s a absolute machine you fiend you
12534s absolute Legend beautifully done but
12538s we're heading right on over back into
12539s the action DG Akuma up against chuang
12543s and chuang he sends the blue focus at
12546s the perfect moment and takes down Akuma
12549s and with that with that long sword
12551s beautifully done another winner of our
12553s Realms of Yang etion reads that so well
12558s and just doesn't let up he keeps the W
12562s keep going he captures you in a Juggle
12565s and ladies and gentlemen you're in the
12566s circus it's time for us to go and go
12569s make some kids happy because goodness
12571s gracious action is not going to give you
12574s a banana for your tricks you are going
12577s to have to earn that one and exan
12580s clearly earned that because oh my
12582s goodness does not give him the
12583s opportunity for oh and Akuma literally
12586s the 300 IQ plays knowing exactly where
12588s he left that body and that Soul Bloom so
12591s that way he doesn't even have to worry
12592s about it that was a free opportunity for
12594s him sadly he wasn't able to but now
12596s Akuma is back on the game and now he's
12599s good and it looks like it's the same
12600s thing for unique unique um potentially
12602s might have found it as well he looked
12604s like he had one in the back stretch as
12605s well here just in time so he looks like
12607s he doesn't have to worry about it as
12608s section finding us out here inside of
12610s this game here playing it so well five
12612s eliminations deep 27 points this could
12615s be the game that takes him to the top
12617s spot this could be the game that has
12620s action in the lead this is it ladies and
12623s Gentlemen let's see if he has the
12625s opportunity for it as Jing is going to
12626s try to see if he can dip out of here
12627s action slowly closing in the Gap the
12629s movement speeds can be just as beautiful
12631s waiting for the El waiting for the blue
12633s strike charge to come through nice hits
12635s though is he's going to connect it the
12636s question is is he going to be able to
12637s juggle the way that he did the last
12638s players here he takes the time he's
12640s waiting for the strike to come through
12642s but it's not enough here trying to see
12643s if he can go for the go for the scale
12646s Rush here but it's not going to be
12647s enough Here and Now ching is just trying
12649s to jugle him around trying to Juke him
12651s going for the ye weave weave catches but
12654s he catches him catches him inside the
12655s jungle yet again catches him off the
12657s outskirts of the stairs ends up hitting
12659s him and obviously he's going to be able
12660s to come through and catches him in a
12662s decent reection here tries to come
12663s through at the best light possible here
12665s as he has to be careful here now extion
12667s on the rotation just right here catching
12669s him nice defensive play though from Z
12671s just just trying to play defensively as
12673s possible here nice hits coming through
12674s on both sides here as D ends up getting
12676s hit by the scale Rush as well here nice
12678s Bell trying to see if he can see if
12680s anybody else is going to be nearby for
12682s this fight here and it looks like it's
12683s going to be drg zaka up top but it looks
12686s like exin decided to let that breathe as
12689s looks like he might have repaired maybe
12690s one of his weapons here and it looks
12692s like now he's going to go and do a
12693s little bit of some shopping of his own
12696s indeed he's looking to uh fully kit
12698s himself out going into this end game
12701s game I I wouldn't be surprised if we did
12705s see it actually go to one of those final
12707s zones or at least the Zone close in a
12710s considerable amount before the game
12712s closes out but it's also very very
12715s possible that we see all of these
12716s players just immediately go crazy just
12719s try and get as much as they can get
12720s really really aggressive since it's
12722s their best chances to get as many points
12724s as they can these situations there are
12727s like there are isolated 1 V ones for the
12729s taking you are able to just just
12731s straight up One V one some of these
12733s players although certain characters like
12735s your zipping and F occasionally don't
12738s always do that all that well in 1 V ones
12740s they prefer to fight as a group as a
12742s herd so to speak oh but unique that is
12745s not what you like to see eating that
12747s damage from the thorny roller but
12749s fortunately he's able to find the heal
12751s oh but again oh and a EX he just jumps
12755s right on over at unique sending out
12757s that. n it looks as though the oh the
12760s thy roll is coming in action gets hit
12762s now equalizing unique actually has the
12765s advantage and there it is unique going
12768s to get hit yet again ladies and
12770s gentlemen how many times are we going to
12771s see this thy roller come through he's
12773s trying to make it out of this dangerous
12776s situation he's going to make it round
12778s he's trying to get through he's trying
12779s to get into that treasure room it's very
12782s difficult all these players are now
12783s collapsing on top of it action he's
12784s going to throw him into the thy roller
12786s the pulo damage coming through action
12788s does pick up yet another elimination but
12790s he's in a very tough situation he has no
12792s Health to his name and he gets picked up
12794s he gets caught out of the air the fan
12796s coming in with that vertical blue doing
12798s so much damage Akuma using the stuff
12801s jumping horizontal Tech to try and open
12803s up chuang here on that ball sword he
12805s manages to do exactly that but shuang he
12808s still has the ultimate hakuma trying his
12810s best to go to try and close out this
12813s kill is very very difficult these these
12815s nchu holds the zipping able to stay on
12818s the Move stay healthy but oh Chen he
12820s sends out the the me done but Akuma he's
12823s in Old there's very very little that
12824s Chen can actually do at this point all
12826s he needs to do is catch him on one of
12828s these Dodgers Akuma he's trying to close
12829s it out it's unbelievably close Akuma
12832s actually getting Jed left and right
12834s Shang he's going fancy he's doing he's
12838s dodging everything Akuma sends the blue
12841s but choosing he goes for the Barry Akuma
12844s trying to close it out and she was
12846s saying one HP situation theuma takes
12849s home the tub oh my what did it say
12854s finish sh trying to hold that for as
12857s long as humanly possible but it's not
12859s going to be enough as exing is going to
12862s be your winner for this game exin should
12866s be able to be your selected winner and
12868s it is as he's played the game so well he
12871s came through and conquered he slay he
12873s dominated and this is why he is one of
12876s those players that I said he could take
12878s it home he absolutely can he's fighting
12882s not only for himself but for J team
12884s we've got the J team supporters in the
12886s crowd they all want to see action do
12889s well cuz it's it's their only hope
12892s ladies and gentlemen unfortunately J
12894s team was not able to make it through in
12896s the Trio's tournament but action he's
12899s coming in and he's looking to take the
12902s solo TB for himself his organization and
12905s all of those who support him J team I
12908s mean action really is one of those
12910s players like I said he really does think
12913s towards those heavy moments here when
12914s it's down to the wire he really did play
12917s it well but at the same time he was I
12919s can't wait to see these highlights he
12920s was a bully there was players that
12922s didn't even have a shot they didn't even
12924s have a chance I'm sorry like it was it
12926s was one of those things where it was
12927s unanimous the way he was able to capture
12930s the combos he goes for the grapple he
12931s does a Goble grabble he goes for the
12933s Dodge immediately continues to keep the
12935s same thing they were barely able to get
12936s any hits on him the amount of confidence
12938s coming in from a player like Exon is a
12940s dam dangerous the way that he was able
12942s to knock in the half he comes into game
12945s four after we take this break with so
12948s much confidence feeling how he played
12951s and have giving players a chance at
12953s something they never could have dreamed
12954s yeah absolutely a beautiful truly
12957s beautiful performance from aen just
12960s those combos were just insane insane
12963s just like just insane I i' I we've never
12967s seen combos like that being pulled off
12969s in in nbpl or Jacob so far we have not
12972s seen the combo like that the extension
12975s perfectly timed with the nunchucks off
12978s of that pillar drop from the V3 barrier
12982s was just wow it was Flawless it was it
12985s was beautiful it was insane like I said
12987s man you the the the other players
12988s couldn't even fathom they couldn't even
12990s dream they couldn't even dream you
12991s thought you could touch me you you were
12993s touching me
12994s bro that's funny that's hilarious coming
12997s from a player like action action came to
12999s play he came to slay and he barely gave
13002s any people a singular chance he said you
13004s thought you can eliminate
13006s me
13009s H that's real funny guys that's real
13011s funny I thought you knew who you were
13012s talking to J team xgen able to come
13017s through and absolutely secure the Dub
13018s here that is how a player dominates the
13021s field barely giving anybody a chance at
13024s anything I can't wait to see these
13025s highlights these highlights got to be
13026s disgusting because there was a am of
13028s moments here where it was just Absolut
13030s there was no chance the third party ends
13031s up coming in towards the end of the game
13033s can we talk about how th thorny roller
13034s got that in amount of damage I just got
13036s to say that the fact that we got a
13037s chance to see a four Pat of back to back
13040s to back to back hits from the I think it
13042s was six people six hits from the th six
13045s hits from different people thorny roller
13047s MVP you know thorny roller had to be an
13049s MVP in terms of that damage cuz even I
13051s was sitting here the more that I saw
13053s them get caught I was like there's no
13054s way that it's going to get caught again
13055s hit him again there's no way it gets
13057s caught smack there's no way it gets
13058s caught hold on where's the here's the th
13061s roller right here here's the 30 roller
13062s In This Moment 9.3 points coming in from
13066s J team's action this is the points he
13068s needed he was at 19 points originally he
13070s was a little bit behind both um xg's
13073s Wang leang and of course our second
13076s place winner as well towards these games
13078s here they were playing this super well
13080s but obviously Akuma and Ching able to
13082s keep up with some of that momentum here
13084s but Mike for eliminations 5.8 he
13087s starting to cook a little bit he is back
13089s he was able to get him
13092s he
13094s problem was just a little bit better
13096s today he saiden it was F to see you
13099s fight that but it's time for me to be
13100s able to take this Podium I am the
13102s selected winner today you going to have
13103s to sit down and go back to the lobby and
13105s get ready for game number four cuz it's
13106s not about you it's about me and let's go
13108s back to the standings here as we're
13109s going to be able to show you exactly
13110s what's going on here and obviously
13112s pandaan still one point down Frost is
13115s 3.4 he held his own a little bit longer
13117s sper has has gotten one point to there
13120s shock
13121s shock trly shocking shocking to see
13123s coming in from spider here he still has
13125s two he still has three more games to
13127s secure but man he does have to pop off
13130s is he going to see himself in that top
13132s three and he has to go absolutely insane
13134s here but obviously still in the lead but
13136s action second place snails it away from
13140s T225 and wangley yangang 23 Point 25
13144s 26.3 sorry and a 25.9 coming in look at
13148s the look at the five ways coming in look
13150s at this 28
13151s 26.3 25.9 25.7
13154s 25.1 this is going to get down to the
13157s wire and this is why we love nraa blade
13160s point this is why one of these games
13162s here can be the deciding factor on who
13165s walks away $100,000 richer and a close
13169s at hand meeting and dinner with the CEO
13172s of that I'm just going to let you know
13174s right now I'd love a steak it's got to
13175s be medium rare cold cut nice delicious
13178s sear I'm talking like I'm I'm going to
13180s be talking to
13181s the abute madness coming from this I
13183s can't wait to see these replays I mean
13185s look at J he played a heck of a game got
13188s to give J he played that so well here
13190s A's might get some cap elimination here
13193s from XG into this exertion obviously Ze
13196s and D trying to see if he can find a
13197s here but Mike reads him so well Mike was
13200s reading these players like a book until
13203s he got to action playing that super well
13206s this was the first of it wbg spider ends
13208s up catching the jungle ends up hitting
13209s up just the switch AO as well I mean the
13213s crowd went barers when he did this they
13216s went absolutely insane action able to
13218s hold strong here a little bit while
13219s longer here goes for the switch on to
13221s wangang here with the num Chucks
13222s captures him with the outskirts of the
13224s totem and gets the Finish throws the
13227s ball and says where do you think you're
13228s going buddy you know what that what
13230s started that that was he he recognized
13233s that his opponent was about to then go
13235s for the whole Dodge into the horizontal
13238s light attack with the staff and he stood
13241s there and he crouched he just crouched
13244s he just duck down a little bit he knew
13247s the horizont was coming he crouched he
13249s didn't use the stamina he conserved it
13251s beautifully and he comes in with the
13254s catch with the lighter attack afterwards
13256s and just sends him for a ride and takes
13259s him down this this fight was so so close
13263s that was so close that so close that was
13266s a close at hand moment here but
13267s obviously we're going to be giving away
13269s another th000 obviously that mvp
13272s action's going to get another little bag
13274s that that B's going to be nice in your
13276s pocket spend it wisely big dog cuz the
13279s fairy is going to claim it and the MVP
13282s is the thorny roll actually it's extion
13284s with that six eliminations 18,000 damage
13287s the long sword and numchucks putting up
13289s equal damage 20 6900 and 6,300 coming
13294s through the numchuck sa fire arrows and
13297s Target lock Advanced heal blistering
13298s rage uh whirling Flash and a Salina
13301s strike too his fifth MVP he's about to
13304s tie up his MVPs with a with aows Mike
13308s xim I'm telling you he is a top player

13485s I'm excited man like this is this is
13487s what it's been so far this is the
13489s stories we've been telling this is where
13491s everything is but until that happens
13494s we're going to take it over to the
13495s interview and R is currently in the
13497s middle of talking to frost ofis right
13500s now he run keeper here with El's Frost
13504s of his Frost I got a couple questions
13506s for you buddy given that we're three
13508s games deep right now how are you feeling
13510s about the competition Now versus the
13512s beginning of the day uh I feel like it's
13515s harder and I feel like my mechanics can
13518s compete with them but the lack of
13520s experience uh playing endgame definitely
13522s shows and uh of course I feel like I'm
13525s not doing too well right
13526s now fair enough all right I've got to
13529s ask you you're the first cross Regional
13532s player here to represent in the J cup
13535s here both not only did you qualify for
13537s just group stages but you have moved
13539s past past you're here for finals how
13542s does it feel to be that cross
13544s representation for both sea and North
13546s America of course I feel happy uh being
13548s able to represent both but my
13550s performance right now are not doing too
13552s good and I hope in the last three games
13555s I can do better all right all right if
13558s you could say anything to your fans
13559s right now who are watching from both of
13561s those regions what would it be uh um I
13565s don't know actually you don't you don't
13567s have anything to say to your fans
13569s watching at all I mean for my fans I
13571s would say thank you for uh supporting me
13574s all this time and I hope I can meet your
13577s expectations awesome yeah I'm I'm sure
13580s you're going to meet their expectations
13581s for Aus ofus they're happy you're here
13583s period uh and for one final question for
13585s you there's three games left to go right
13588s and if you're going to be here for Jacob
13590s this year I'd like to ask is there
13592s anyone you see here as a rival as a
13596s rival yeah a single player that you see
13598s as a rival not just somebody you feel
13599s like you need to beat but somebody who
13601s really you've gone head-to-head with a
13603s lot and you see them that way uh I would
13607s say Mike of course uh so even though
13609s like uh so I've done Customs before with
13611s him and it it feels like a tie but his
13616s experience definitely like succeeds mine
13619s and I think that's why like he's doing
13621s much better compared to me and yeah it's
13623s a all about experience absolutely I mean
13627s you and Mike have been going
13629s head-to-head and you know it's been a
13632s it's been a crazy experience for you

14212s first three games have been amazingly
14214s exciting I mean game three here we saw
14217s so much go down J team's action coming
14220s in and stealing the show quite literally
14222s picking up an elimination on all of the
14224s top players and climbing the ladder we
14226s talked about this before the start of
14228s game two we said he was in spitting
14229s distance he was in range to make
14231s something happen not only did he find
14233s the pop off game that he needed to find
14235s he was able to shut down the top players
14237s at the leaderboard and make his way on
14240s up there I mean speaking about shutdown
14242s A's mic was a lot ahead of everybody
14246s going into the start of the day right
14247s because of that performance in
14248s pre-finals he had a very good
14250s performance in game number one game
14252s number two however going out with zero
14255s points that allowed a lot of these other
14256s players to be able to start Bridging the
14257s distance Raven how important do you
14260s think that second game where Mike got
14262s knocked out of the lobby incredibly
14264s early is in terms of confidence that a
14266s lot of these other players have in the
14267s lobby he bet it all Moxy now normally on
14271s hollo we've seen three main picks hottie
14274s Baria and zipping those are the three
14277s that everyone's established that's how
14278s you get points right now and I don't
14280s know what got into Mike he bet it all on
14283s justtina he was trying to make things go
14285s but I always say this when you play
14287s Justina as soon as you all it's White
14289s Flag especially transition in the end
14291s game everyone knows You're vulnerable
14293s and Mike even one of the gos of the game
14295s wasn't able to pull it off now everyone
14298s else that just opened up the door for
14299s 225 on the zipping day you just saw the
14302s herd of zipping room is all on this
14304s massacring all the fair my boy Frost of
14306s his I was like no no not 225 with the
14309s jabbing he just goes up on the hill and
14311s just gets his eye poked out and I'm like
14313s no my man he had two kills he had FAL he
14316s was about to have a pop off game and
14317s unfortunately he got his legs C cut out
14319s from him now I was surprised that Doby
14322s pick Exon but Exon has the highest KDA
14325s for for end game he has five average in
14328s his end games and we see exactly why
14330s he's so competitive and it would be the
14333s craziest narrative that even though JT
14334s didn't do it in trios they just switched
14337s on over to solos and we're just like
14338s we're the three time what a an exit is
14341s just showing up big but every single
14343s year it is so competitive at Jacob these
14345s are the best in the world the top eight
14347s is neck to neck and I cannot wait to see
14350s what happens next yeah I mean absolutely
14352s ation is one of those players that we
14353s talk about all the time that you cannot
14355s count out ation will look like he's
14357s having a bad day he's having a bad game
14359s and then he just comes out back from
14361s behind and it's like action where has
14363s this been all day or all season like we
14366s know you can play like this why don't
14368s you show it all the time and here on the
14370s most competitive stage he's here to show
14372s it well I mean speaking about that when
14374s we saw him in nraa BL Point pro league
14376s his pop off game would always be game
14379s six he would always save the best till
14381s the very very last so him already having
14383s that pop off game now it means if he has
14385s that game number six where he just hits
14388s the ground running and absolutely Stomps
14390s through everybody in the lobby that road
14393s to the trophy directly behind him
14396s becomes a whole lot easier but speaking
14399s about some of these players who've been
14400s finding things a little bit easy this is
14401s one of our players who's actually
14403s finding themselves on the Jacob stage
14404s for the first time I do believe run that
14406s you got to catch up with frost ofus take
14408s it
14410s my strategy was uh lacking and my
14413s mechanics was also proving
14416s that I keep getting hit by things that I
14419s shouldn't be and there are a lot of
14422s things that I need to
14423s change it's not that I'm going to lack
14426s confidence I feel like uh I need to
14428s train more and prepare better uh and
14431s also change my place style and my
14433s strategy so I feel like I need to change
14437s everything but I already have a plan on
14440s what I need to
14441s do for the audiences or like the lights
14445s and stuff I feel like it excites me more
14448s than making me nervous uh because I feel
14451s like I usually don't underperform under
14455s pressure uh and hopefully I can do
14457s better you know like you said MOX I got
14460s to catch up with frost here between
14462s games three and four and you know I I
14465s asked him a couple of tough questions
14466s like what he wanted to say to his fans
14468s unfortunately he just he doesn't know
14470s what to say right now he feels like he's
14472s underperforming but Frost ofis if you
14474s can hear us right now buddy you are
14476s doing one hack of a job it keep going at
14478s it we're happy to have you here and see
14480s you on the big stage yeah I mean he's
14482s already proven himself and then some
14484s right he's been able to take down some
14486s of the biggest names in all of nraa
14488s whether or not he's able to make it onto
14491s the podium finish we'll have to see
14493s because we're heading into the second
14494s half of the day and you know what that
14496s means that means fireflies time I am so
14500s incredibly happy because Raven this is
14502s actually something that you've been
14502s studying really hard right as someone
14504s who also coaches a lot of these players
14506s you understand how important it is when
14508s fireflies come into play that the second
14510s the game starts your drop location that
14512s decision making is Pixel Perfect yeah
14515s and frost ofis he loves dueling we saw
14517s in the first half he went in the Yang he
14520s won his fights every single time it's
14521s just that end gave me to TI up but the
14523s good thing about the second half is
14525s everyone the nerves are going to be
14526s settle in We're Going For Broke there
14529s really isn't a lot of Stack end games on
14531s Morris and what I saw last night frus
14534s had the entire nbbl crew lining up to
14538s fight against his Justina so he has his
14540s Justina unlock he has his temi unlock
14542s and he still has one more hotti and fr's
14544s strongest pick is Hottie and granted he
14547s had to fight against a bunch of fairs a
14549s bunch of zipping to get the turtle up
14551s but now it's about Mano yamano so I
14553s expect Frost ofus even though he feels
14555s like he's underperforming compared to
14557s the pre-finals he's doing a lot better
14559s he's going through and all it takes is
14561s two really big games all the leader
14563s boards right now all of them have two
14564s really big games and I know Frost of has
14566s has it in him to bring it back
14567s absolutely yeah but I mean it's the
14569s phases that's that's potentially going
14571s to throw a little bit of a spanner into
14572s the works right that's something a lot
14574s of these players have already sort of
14576s experienced those phases have been
14578s pretty unforgiving in terms of if your
14581s favorite hero gets locked out you know
14583s we talked about this a little bit
14584s earlier frostz felt kind of like he
14587s didn't enjoy being locked into that
14589s third phase at the start of the day but
14591s I honestly think it gives him a huge
14592s Advantage going into game six because he
14594s is going to be that phase one
14597s pick yeah I definitely think it's going
14599s to be one of those ones to keep an eye
14602s on like we said however there are a lot
14603s of these players in the lobby who do so
14606s much better when it is that last game
14608s we've seen what happens when that
14610s pressure pushes these players to the
14612s absolute Brink we've had records being
14615s broken teams coming in knowing and
14617s understanding that wind condition that
14619s they have to pick up 10 plus kills and
14622s they went out and they did it run it was
14625s crazy there's amount of times we've seen
14627s v&c getting to qualify and even make it
14631s into the finals for trios that was off
14633s of the back of one of those games nraa
14635s blade Point Pro League season 2 the
14637s final match of that game went down to
14640s the absolute wire because of this one
14643s player directly on your screen right now
14645s and I know that you are a big fan of
14647s this boy look when leang is just such a
14650s good player there's been some talk
14652s around the water cooler in North America
14655s and EU a lot of people trying to say
14657s that wangyang is washed he's not as good
14660s a player as he used to be and coming out
14662s here today in the pre-final stages as
14664s well this man was an absolute demon in
14667s the first season of nvpl and he has put
14670s the mask back on he is here to play he
14673s is here to show these players No Quarter
14677s this man is looking to tear through
14680s lobbies Moxy and he's been doing exactly
14683s that game two this man was on fire and
14685s Against All Odds in the very end it
14688s looked like he was going to go down he
14690s lands a massive Parry manages to just
14692s abscond away and live to the very end to
14695s come out on top of T225 he is an
14698s absolutely dominant player I'm excited
14700s to see what these Firefly maps are going
14702s to bring especially for xg's wangang I
14705s mean we know it's going to bring
14706s aggression we know that a lot of these
14708s players are potentially going to get
14709s knocked out of this Lobby incredibly
14711s early right as we talked about with
14713s Raven your Landing strategy has to be
14715s absolutely on point and this is the
14717s moment where we start to see some of
14718s these players having laid the
14720s foundations of oh I'm definitely going
14722s to drop here suddenly switch things
14724s around and I would not be surprised if
14726s we do see that coming into play given
14729s the amount of fireflies that are on the
14732s map even though it's going to be these
14733s nighttime Ms even though those uh spawn
14735s rates of those fireflies are going to be
14737s increased there still only a select few
14740s and those locations are incredibly
14741s telegraphed so it's going to be all
14743s hands- on Deck to get your hands onto
14745s those as quickly as possible speaking
14747s about hands everyone is going to get
14750s ready to lock in their Heroes as the
14752s phases change and we get Mike zel sha
14756s and ation all now getting selecting
14759s their favorite Heroes first of all this
14762s is where we're more than likely going to
14763s see the Hardy lock out in full force
14766s yeah this is going to be very very
14768s interesting to see these Firefly maps
14770s are going to be so much more aggressive
14772s Moxy than our earlier games today and
14775s those games were already aggressive to
14777s the max here I expect to see a lot of
14779s hottie I expect to see more teada coming
14782s out in these p as well SP and T25 being
14785s in that second phase getting to pick
14788s their hero if Hardy gets locked out you
14790s can fall back onto the deada even though
14792s teada has been a little bit power
14793s crapped by the Hardy oh hello that's not
14796s a Hardy coming in with the Justina yeah
14800s this is very very interesting this is
14802s this is this is textbook zel though
14803s right coming out with a pick nobody
14805s expects to see Justina we've talked
14807s about it all season we talked about how
14809s I thought Justina was going to come back
14810s into the meta especially on these
14812s Firefly Maps because of how good she is
14814s in the early game and we're also going
14816s to see drg Zuma following suit with that
14818s and xg's Wang leang locking in the Tami
14822s as well followed up by K bringing in the
14825s dec to talk about a diverse hero of P
14827s E's Frost
14828s this is something he's been working on
14830s he's been working on his Tami for this
14833s specific reason when he was going to be
14835s in phase three he's clearly following
14837s through with his plan locking that Tammy
14839s and we're going to see another Justina
14840s coming in from 5 21's unique as well our
14843s second teada being locked by Chu Jang
14845s and pandaan locking that far this is
14848s very very interesting pandaan is
14850s typically a player everybody looks at
14851s and goes he's the T boy he's the T
14853s player but for me this season where he's
14856s really really excelled are during his
14859s Faria game so I'm excited to see how
14861s he's going to perform here in game
14863s number four yeah we've got a couple of
14864s these players as well locking the tumult
14866s something that was when Hardy first
14868s started rising to the Forefront of the
14870s meta seen as a damage control hero but
14873s more often than not has actually been
14875s able to walk away with MVP when we've
14878s seen him run especially with prosus
14879s locking that one in that's one of his
14881s more preferred Heroes to be able to
14883s counter that Hardy strategy so it'll be
14885s very interesting to see whether or not
14887s those tumult are found before we head
14889s into those final zones and that ultimate
14891s becomes oh so detrimental in allowing
14894s these Hardies that freedom of movement
14896s T25 also locking in that teada this is a
14899s hero that he was actually noted for when
14902s we were here the last year cycle back
14906s 365 days it was t5's teada that was
14909s impressing everyone so much that he got
14911s picked up for nbpl Shang also locking in
14914s with that one as we're going to have a
14916s look and see what ultimates are going to
14918s be coming through F2 V2 for both of
14921s those justinas no surprises there than
14922s wanting to be able to utilize that
14924s freeze to be able to go into those true
14926s converts as we are going to see the F3
14928s V1 from the side of the decada F1 V3
14932s from all of our faers and I do not see
14935s any variation on the hardies either No
14937s One locking in that V2 since there are
14939s no zips on this map yeah absolutely
14942s important things to note here though GG
14944s sha and action both going to be locking
14945s hottie for their second time that means
14947s they're double hero pick is out and zel
14950s coming in interestingly enough is going
14952s to double lock Justina this has not been
14956s zel's Mo leading up to the Grand finals
14958s he's been double locking Viper so coming
14960s in betting it all on his second game on
14963s Justina on the Firefly map as we take a
14965s look at where these players are going to
14967s be landing it is going to get off to a
14970s rocky start almost immediately action
14972s gel Frost of it's all landing on top of
14974s each other the wbg spider heading up to
14977s even tide by itself but not too far in
14979s the winds is going to be pandaan and A's
14981s Mike T225 going to take a spot a little
14984s more Central away from everybody and
14986s following suit with drg zaka and GG Shaw
14989s yeah this is going to be incredibly
14991s aggressive a true race to those spawns
14994s of the Fireflight and so many of these
14995s Heroes really do rely on their ultimates
14998s either for the aggression or just having
14999s that disengagement tool so that if they
15001s get pressured if they see a third party
15003s come through they have the confidence to
15005s be able to hold themselves in that fight
15006s until things go a little bit too too far
15008s as A's mik looking to move north on that
15011s leaderboard coming in with that Hardy
15013s pick hasn't been able to find any
15016s purples off of actually no he has he's
15017s been able to find a purple musket
15019s already that's insane for the Hardy
15021s given the fact that that damage that
15023s scaling of your weapon converts into the
15026s amount of damage that you do with that
15028s V1 as it's going to be 2 to5 going head
15030s to-head with Akuma both of these players
15032s looking to pick up those firepl nor noal
15035s and Akuma comes in with a V2 t five
15038s reduced to an absolute sliver of Health
15040s taking the fight onto the cliff Akuma
15042s out of Dash is T5 with the power he go
15044s to force the free shell and we're going
15046s to suddenly see the fight swing back in
15048s favor of the teada as the F comes on
15050s through Akuma not going to be able to
15052s throw those Blues having to try and
15054s climb up T Rive catches him on the cliff
15057s and T Rive gets the kill oh my goodness
15060s Akuma griefing himself by jumping off
15062s the cliff side instead of using the
15064s scale Rush he goes for the Clank mid air
15066s gets it but it's not enough as we see
15068s him fall oh my goodness T225 so happy
15072s about that turn of events as we cut over
15074s to A's Mike now back to J team's action
15077s just a juggling cell into the air here
15079s Zell going to be caught out into the
15081s weapon swap here off of the tool blade
15083s cell no place to go trying to fight it
15085s out here with the dagger but zel goes
15087s down as J team's action finds his first
15089s elimination of the game wbg spider
15091s coming in here looking for some
15093s connections onto A's Mike Mike with the
15095s scale rush but spider will find the
15096s Clank coming in with the long sword Mike
15099s with the conversion though coming in
15100s with the blue he goes for the overh
15102s Spider goes so low A's Mike wants to
15106s make sure he secures this kill but the
15107s third party coming through here from Oh
15109s you's Panda man might spell disaster for
15112s him he's looking for the musket shot wbg
15114s spider just trying to keep his game
15116s alive and there it is ladies and
15118s gentlemen ug's pandaan takes it still
15121s however Mike in danger pandaman looking
15124s to try to keep this aggression turned
15126s onto Mike given the fact that pillar is
15128s going to be coming through to convert
15130s into any damage off of that long sword
15132s mik now coming in with the V1 the pillar
15135s managing to catch the Hardy and force
15136s him into the full reposition Mike taking
15139s cover behind the building will be able
15140s to find one po off is going to cancel
15142s the ultimate early to conserve 37% of
15144s that range PanAm man not going to allow
15146s Mike to go into the full armor reset now
15149s having to go head to-head the F1 force
15151s from the fair Mike coming with a very
15152s good spacing of the lmb on that dagger
15154s going to keep the pressure up on the p
15156s man no he doesn't have the combo break
15157s finds the power he pushes pandan into
15160s using that blue with his back against
15162s the wall Mike's going to be able
15164s to pandam trying to drop down with the
15168s focus strike off of that tree and Mike
15171s reads it perfectly this is why he's such
15174s a strong solos player run he pushes you
15177s outside of your comfort zone he forces
15179s you into overc committing and every
15181s single time he's ready to take full
15183s advantage if I've said it once I've said
15186s it twice Moxy A's doesn't just have eyes
15188s in the back of the head he's got eyes on
15190s the top of his head he's got eyes on his
15191s feet he's got eyes on his hand this man
15194s always know where you are and what
15196s you're doing oh my goodness we're to cut
15198s over here back to xcg is wangang at J
15201s team's action wangang hungry to start
15203s picking up some eliminations here he was
15205s in second place coming into the day and
15207s off the back of the last game he has
15208s fallen all the way to fourth place and
15210s you can bet he's not happy about it exen
15212s just trying to get away from the Wisp
15214s here wangang keeping the pressure up
15217s looking something happen goes for the
15218s scale rush but will not connect and find
15220s the way the Clank up top action going
15223s for it will find the conversion off of
15224s the charge elb then continuing to keep
15227s the pressure up here wangan going to be
15229s forced away looking for the reset a
15232s going to try to find one as well here he
15234s wants that full health before he's
15235s forced to re-engage here with his
15237s natural enemy the Tami coming through
15240s and we're going to see aen take control
15241s yet again he going to find not one but
15244s twice coming in off of the dual blades
15246s here the Parry coming in on the wangang
15248s wangang forced to use the golden F there
15250s the Wisp just to get away ation looking
15253s for it oh my goodness he does get the
15255s pot off ation will get a little bit of
15256s Chip damage but wangang keeping his game
15259s alive this is going to be very
15260s interesting this space not so great for
15263s the Tammy ult to come through he's got
15265s to be very careful about how he faces
15267s the fight and plays into action here
15269s both of them going to take the third
15271s reset of the fight Moxy and extion
15273s decides he is done committing he wants
15275s to get out of here and it looks like
15276s wangang decided to do the same I mean
15279s it's smart when you think about the
15280s macro right realm of Yang is about to
15282s start coming on through and neither of
15284s those two Heroes both the Hardy and the
15285s tamy do want to actually have to commit
15288s their full ultimates into being able to
15290s determine the winner of that fight Mike
15292s coming into the third party dropping
15294s from the roof with the R&B on that fan
15296s and it's going to force unique on that
15298s Justina into utilizing the V2 to try and
15300s disengage this fight is getting a little
15302s bit too hot for that justina's blood and
15304s as a result you're going to back off
15306s entirely one day utilized one still
15308s holding on 5 to1 going to see the real
15311s of Yang spawning on up knows that that
15313s is now putting a ticking clock on the
15315s soul Bloom and it's going to be T to
15318s five coming in forcing the free shell
15320s unique the combo bra going to go into
15321s the upper cut and it's going to be T5
15324s with that Katana yet again that's going
15326s to be able to find the kill and look at
15328s this crucially didn't use the ultimate
15331s gets the soul Bloom now has the
15332s insurance policy if he decides to put
15334s himself into that realm of Yang as Mike
15337s knock getting the kill and that Justina
15338s has to turn his attention onto shuang
15340s instead deer ultimate invested Mike
15342s utilizing the hadti ultimate to be able
15344s to reposition coming in of the triple
15346s charge to be able to buy himself so much
15348s space and push usang even further into
15350s the zone so that he might just go down
15351s to the Zone take damage as Mike is able
15354s to pick up yet another kill oh this is
15357s so unfortunate for jdg shuang I just
15359s don't think he had the health bots in
15361s the back pocket Mike gave him more than
15362s enough time to find that reset and he
15365s didn't even start to go for one he was
15367s just forced back to the wall into the
15369s zone and Mike more than happy to give up
15371s going to realm of Yang to find that
15373s second elimination and continue to keep
15375s putting pressure on this lobby as we
15377s take a look those real of yangs coming
15379s forward it looks like frost of his Panda
15380s man and GG Shaw all looking to fight
15383s over one of those reals of Yang Wang and
15385s extion in another one and Mike now
15387s knowing that he doesn't have the
15388s ultimate like you said to go into that
15390s real of Yang looking to grief some of
15392s these other players who are trying to
15394s find their way in he could theoretically
15396s right he said
15398s 75% that's odds that you kind of like as
15402s aone but there it is he griefs the
15404s entrance utilizes the F2 the body block
15409s and spider and T5 are both denied the
15412s opportunity to be able to go into the
15414s realm of Yang and so it's going to be
15416s frost ofus and J team's action shots
15418s exchanged from the rang action trying to
15420s come in with the RMB overhauls to be
15422s able to find the connection forcing the
15423s tul into utilizing that whisp no combo
15425s breaker available for Frost now if he
15427s gets swiped up into a string a going to
15429s keep the pressure knowing that's a fact
15432s utilizes the F2 drops out a bit early
15434s Frost is able to catch retion falls into
15436s the OPA grapple bump into the followup
15439s with the Jew blades finds almost the
15441s kill it's just a couple more hits and
15443s frost ofus walks away the Victor oh my
15446s goodness on to the next ROM Yang here
15449s it's going to be ug's panman going head
15451s tohe head here with GG Sha Sha Airborne
15453s here into pandaan SP this is a nightmare
15456s for pandaan if sha can just hold this
15459s position we are going to see that
15460s ultimate coming to an end though pandaan
15462s might be able to find some extra value
15464s there it is he's able to connect on the
15465s shot behind the pillar looking for
15467s another one shot going to burn the F
15469s just to bait out the extra Cannon shot
15471s here looking up for another reset he's
15473s able to keep the Dodge up but pandan and
15476s him almost equal here pandan trying to
15478s find control with the fan fights a mive
15479s Perry on the GG shot the follow of R&B
15482s coming in from that F the N release and
15484s he finds it a second time Oh you's Panda
15486s man comes out on top we are about to see
15489s two players go incredibly aggressive run
15491s these are two players who need the kills
15492s to be able to climb up the leaderboard
15494s these are two players that just got
15495s handed that safety line of the million
15498s Birds might they can go as aggressive as
15499s they want they won the realm of Yang
15501s they're going to have all of their
15502s ultimates back as xtg is wangang
15504s unfortunately not in a great position oh
15507s shooting at him it's Z coming on in
15509s trying to keep this Tuli in that zone
15511s for as long as possible looks as well
15513s like he had a bounty on his head which
15514s was why Z was able to track that
15516s position down spider now coming in
15518s against Frost ofus going to already have
15520s dropped that pillar Frost ofus able to
15522s find the par spider taken down yet again
15525s how many times did we see Frost ofus get
15528s the better of wbg spider before we
15530s headed into today and yet again he's
15533s able to pull the same magic and take
15535s down the current defending world
15536s champion oh my goodness Frost of is here
15539s absolutely on fire forcing shot into the
15542s ultimate already but Frost ofis holding
15544s on to the old Frost ofis finds another
15546s eliminations lady gentlemen Frost ofus
15548s goes to three and will take the lead
15550s here in game number four ug's panman
15553s looking to turn on to frost ofus but
15554s importantly Frost still holding on to
15557s that Tei ultimate we're going to see the
15558s Wisp invested here is going to throw
15560s down not able to find the connection yet
15562s but Frost again has that ultimate the
15564s pillar going to be coming through Frost
15565s is going to need to use that ultimate
15567s soon there it is ladies and gentlemen
15568s he's trying to keep panid off of the
15570s pillar he's got him locked down panan

15575s his fight it there we go he's going to
15577s get out pandaan can't possibly look for
15580s the elimination but Frost is got to keep
15582s going cuz pandaan is looking for the
15583s longrange snipe he's not even looking to
15585s heal ladies and gentlemen Frost is able
15587s to avoid it looking for another heal
15590s here using the whisp just to buy himself
15591s a little bit of space and ladies and
15593s gentlemen elg's Frost is still in it
15596s Mike still however right behind pandaan
15599s the second the SP drops side of that
15601s Mech we're going to see the potential
15602s third party come through pandaman C
15604s between both frosters and Mike utilizing
15607s the F1 under that pressure will be able
15608s to find the upper cup of Frost ofus with
15610s the combo breaker of the F going to be
15611s able to dodge out of any followup as a
15613s result doesn't have it now Pand man with
15615s the soul shatter able to come through
15617s with the break and frost ofus does go
15620s down he's still got the Vilan bird SM
15622s however and Mike and pandan now go head
15624s tohe Mike able to catch the upper gut
15626s into the grapple BMP into the R&B on the
15627s Dual hbert pandaman tap dodging through
15630s trying to pick up his weapon still has
15631s the milon birds by himself but he might
15633s lose it right now as he's going to
15635s potentially get killed on Clank the V3
15637s catching Mike pushing him back pandan
15639s able to come back here with the neutral
15641s and pushes the hard utilizing the F2
15644s Mike D engages pandaan lives another day

15656s come in like a heat seeking missile he's
15658s not able to find the shot Mike will get
15660s the better of him here but pandaman
15661s going to opt to go for a little bit of a
15663s reset here or might just let Mike put an
15666s end to him so that he take the reset oh
15668s my goodness don't hold it too long pman
15671s yes there we go pman coming in knows
15674s what he needs to do here he's going to
15676s let somebody pick up the elimination so
15677s that he can utilize a massive Parry
15680s coming in from mik though and oh my God
15683s 5 21's unique gets deleted from the
15686s lobby and just like that Mike is able to
15689s go from three to five it's so
15691s unfortunate for Pand man like you said
15693s he needs to let someone kill him he
15694s knows that vilon bird Smite is down to
15696s almost 10 seconds he does not want to go
15698s out of this Lobby because of holding on
15700s to that reir a little bit longer before
15703s it runs out but it means that he hands
15706s Mike the current leader on the
15708s leaderboard another two kills and the
15711s distance between Mike and everyone else
15713s slowly increases yet again as second
15716s real of yangs are going to spawn on up
15719s pandan having gone back to that Sol Al
15720s to getting to keep himself in the lobby
15722s as well keep all of that loot going to
15725s be incredibly happy with the fight he's
15727s able to continue to try and find some of
15729s these kills Frost ofus will he try and
15731s go inside a realm of Yang as yet again
15734s it looks like Mike is looking to gri T5
15736s meanwhile has been able to find his
15737s mirror Shang going incredibly low the
15739s R&B on those dual harits mincing for all
15741s the health T5 with the Parry is going to
15744s be able to deny the teada and T25 picks
15747s up his third elimination in the lobby
15750s Moxy we have got to talk about the piece
15751s of tech that T225 just did here I don't
15754s know if you saw what happened here he
15755s knew that if he threw his teada ultimate
15757s first that the follow-up teada was going
15759s to come out to shove him he was able to
15762s if frame perfectly through that ultimate
15764s to get the followup he baited the
15766s ultimate coming in and is able to come
15768s out on top and speaking of coming out on
15770s top we are going to see El's Frost of is
15772s heading inside the realm of Yang to go
15775s head-to-head with zel and meanwhile it's
15776s going to be A's Mike heading in here

15802s action's looking for it the cut coming
15804s in action the with the ultimate is going
15806s to go old for old here Mike looking for
15808s anything he hasn't been able to find the
15810s pot just yet who will make it happen

15865s M on the hunt for yet another one sorry
15867s not Mike with the U Mystic might but
15870s still on the hunt he had the soul Bloom
15872s crucially he was able to cleanse coming
15874s out here Here We Go frost ofis will be
15875s coming through and he has exactly 3
15878s minutes and 47 seconds to find that Soul
15881s Bloom to get himself back into this game
15883s he's got three eliminations under his
15885s belt he cannot afford to go out here
15887s Moxy oh my goodness as we talk about it

15903s here and loot the body Mike feeling
15904s forced to use that a to get looking for
15908s the top of the roof
15911s weers remain alive 4 seconds Z three
15914s collapses on to zone four Frost here's
15917s Frost he didn't have a body stored three
15920s minutes on the clock for him to be able
15922s to try and force a fight and pick up a
15925s soul bam like you said he does not want
15926s to go out of this Lobby this is his
15928s potential pop off game he's already on
15930s free kills Mike is playing the exact
15932s same game however as Z has been able to
15934s track that to mulch down with we're
15936s going to see the rematch come through
15938s assault smolder catching onto the Justin
15940s of the Mystic might with that 25% damage
15942s reduction making it a lot harder for
15944s frost to be able to make that damage sck
15945s free shell form going to be popped from
15947s zel Frost not able to take advantage
15949s with the focus strike from that Katana
15951s as zel has understood that the OT he's
15953s fighting is going to be under Yang
15955s depletion he catches the V2 freeze once
15958s again dragon slay is into Nez into alut
15961s into to jump horizontal to continue to
15964s apply that pressure and Mike now SE is a
15967s low Health Target moves into position
15970s and picks up a second and we're going to
15973s see yet again the priest from the V2
15975s Dragon Slayers into nesos but zel cannot
15978s actually commit into the fight another
15980s player shows up for a fourth party and
15982s without that ultimate that justtina just
15984s has to disengage oh my goodness Mike
15987s getting his life saved by the rest of
15989s the lobby as they show up to try to
15991s capitalize on the elimination but it
15993s gives him the distance he needs to break
15995s away from from this fight such an
15998s unfortunate turn of events for frost
16000s speaking of an unfortunate turn of
16001s events C thought he was hidden here but
16003s kale is T225 more than happy to burn the
16007s ultimate to pick up his fourth
16009s elimination of the game and we go to
16011s five players left alive ladies and
16012s gentlemen we are now zone three
16014s collapsing onto zone four and what did
16016s we say at the beginning of this game oxt
16018s was going to be much much more
16020s aggressive and here it is these
16022s fireflies really putting in work for
16023s these players as we take a look at J
16025s team's action look to close the gap onto
16028s A's mik he knows he needs to eliminate
16030s him here from the lobby if he has any
16033s chance of walking away with the
16035s championship Mike going to find himself
16037s being creeped out by 's pandan coming in
16038s with a massive Parry going to force out
16040s the F2 it comes out just a little too
16042s late Mike still eats the repas damage
16045s there coming through action's going to
16046s lock in onto him coming through waiting
16048s for the opportunity to find the scale
16050s rush but Panda man going to push him
16051s away giving zel no opportunity action
16054s coming in look at this Mike able to find
16057s just a little bit of a gap here but
16058s action on top of him already the reset

16072s has the lunge on the staff utilizing the
16074s horizontal after going into the Risen
16076s CDE will be able to keep himself moving
16079s unfortunately that armor reset that he
16080s was able to pick up has now almost
16082s entirely been denied both Pand man and
16084s Ain just waiting around the edge of of
16086s the building for Mike to have to reveal
16087s himself and eventually scale rush we
16089s going the action come through with the
16090s cannon the AOE damage forcing Mike off
16093s of his hiding spot the grapple
16094s connection onto pandan Mike with the
16097s staff movement looking to try to break
16099s away and maybe disappear amongst the
16102s Treetops but that's not going to be
16104s allowed he going to take so much damage
16106s coming through action looking to grief

16124s another armor reset onto the gray armor
16126s but the lmb on the legendary fan shots
16129s it down entirely the ultimate's going to
16131s carry Mike to safety for a little bit of
16133s time but that might just be for a couple
16134s more seconds as in front of him the B he
16138s decides to go in he goes into the ban R
16141s he takes his chances Against The Gods of
16143s nraa to be able to take that tropy home
16147s oh my goodness Mike betting it all on
16149s the Bane's breath hoping the big snake
16152s in the sky is going to save him here but

16156s able to heal that armor up but these
16158s players are not going to let it go
16159s there's only two hotties left in the
16161s lobby action knows he's one of them

16248s taking so much pressure putting himself
16250s into a position to be able to look to
16251s chalk that kill Force the fair into
16253s utilizing that V3 far sooner than
16255s pandaan wanted and just like these
16257s players do not want to Hardy into the
16258s final Zone they're definitely don't want
16260s to F either oh my goodness wangang here
16263s really putting the pressure deep on the
16265s pman but actually feeling the pressure
16267s as well there it is the Whisk comes out
16269s T225 is able to find the elimination
16273s ladies and gentlemen here we are your
16275s top three Panda man T225 and of course
16278s xcg Wang leang T225 really trying to
16281s find a way into this fight with panda
16284s man is able to find the conversion of
16285s the F but not able to find the followup
16287s and take control of the neutral T225
16289s going to look for the reset as wangang
16291s comes in trying to land that assault
16293s smolder yet again he's not able to find
16296s it onto tt25 but it's going to pressure
16298s into pandaan pandaan will find the
16300s conversion off of the legendary fan
16302s there from the charged R&B and wangang
16305s is in trouble here ladies and gentlemen
16307s they have identified the weak man out
16309s the f is going to come out from Panda
16310s man wangang looking for the overh hold
16312s not going to find it they're going to
16313s clang not once not twice they're going
16315s to find the third clang but Wang langang
16317s taking shots to the back here from T225
16320s this entire time he's going to be forced
16321s to burn the ultimate here T225 looking
16324s to pressure in oh my God the hefta
16327s detach coming in it goes through the
16329s wall and says I don't care I'm going to
16332s catch you out anyway wangang with the
16334s legendary armor able to find at least
16335s one pot for the reset but crucially he
16337s has just a couple seconds till that FS
16339s back up he does however have no rage
16343s towards his ultimate Moxy yep and that's
16345s going to mean that pandan and T25 are
16347s going to continue applying the pressure
16349s onto him you can see pandan looking to
16350s close up the distance and land yet again
16353s that damage coming in the lmb OR R&B on
16355s the fan wangang caught in the middle of
16357s these two players pandan able to land
16358s the R&B the F going to be invested from
16360s the ult we go to the stanion into the
16362s merciless come through but T finds the
16365s Parry the R&B on the long sword him out
16368s of the Zone but pandan finds the kill
16370s the R&B on the F faster the T5 is able
16373s to and as a result we're go to the de to
16375s commit the one two three of the long
16376s sword he is not happy about that one
16379s being stolen Pand man overh holding the
16381s fan going to utilize that movement to be
16382s able to put himself onto the cliff to be
16384s able to SC out of this investment over
16385s fight managing to land the R&B onto the
16388s teada on the cliff Edge pman getting
16390s caught out by the scale Rush gets held
16393s in position
16395s T225 the best teada in the world last
16398s year the best teada in this Lobby what a
16402s play coming through from him T225 coming
16405s through is going to find a welld
16407s deserved MVP here in game number four
16410s what an absolute in insane game coming
16415s through from t22 five I can't believe he
16417s was able to make it happen Moxy oh I
16420s said the second that I saw his teada I
16422s said this is going to either be the
16424s moment that t5's mental just breaks
16427s because this is his comfort pick right
16429s if all else fails revert to teada this
16432s is either going to be where his Jacob
16433s falls apart or where it all gets put
16436s together and that's exactly what happens
16438s there were so many amazing moments
16440s coming through from him there were only
16441s two deers in the lobby you saw what
16443s happened when all of those other Heroes
16445s that were the minority things like the
16446s ulch uh things like the Hardy the far
16449s the second those got spotted out
16451s everyone was on them and it goes to show
16454s just how smart T5 actually played that
16456s in terms of positioning he was making
16457s sure he was never in that forward
16459s position he was looking to try and take
16461s those kills but he wasn't putting
16462s himself into the the next player in the
16465s firing line so that when that kill did
16467s go through you don't immediately catch
16470s turn on
16471s te oh my goodness T225 here I mean when
16474s you say best to K
16476s in the lobby I he's definitely inen for
16479s best te here period that piece of tech
16482s he utilized into the other baiting into
16486s the ultimate by throwing his ultimate
16487s you put yourself in the worst position
16490s by throwing your ultimate out first it
16492s was a huge risk that had massive
16494s benefits because he was able to land
16496s that tap Dodge and follow through and
16498s pick up the elimination as soon as he
16500s dodged through that foin coming out from
16502s the other teada there was absolutely
16504s nothing the other teada could do to stop
16507s him well this is the thing about T5
16510s right this is something that I've always
16511s said always praised for him it's not
16513s just that he is the best teor in terms
16515s of his mechanics and how he takes the 1
16517s V ones it's he's the best teor in terms
16519s of understanding how other players play
16521s teada so when we were in previous Ms
16524s previous matches previous mvpl seasons
16526s and teada was at the very very top and
16529s your teada matches would be the be on
16531s end or would be where you would be
16532s coming in with all of those kills T5
16534s having that knowledge and on
16535s understanding of the mirror match up
16537s especially in places like the ram of
16538s Yang always benefited him he would
16541s always be able to find those wins and as
16542s a result scale far better than all of
16544s the other teas in the lobby into the
16547s late game where things like HEPA uh and
16550s Phoenix blast when you have like a long
16551s sword or even something like hot stoper
16553s kick off of a spit become so prevalent
16555s and important in being able to guarantee
16557s that as a teor you pick up MVP and I
16560s think the reason why we saw T25 take a
16562s little bit of a dive in terms of the
16564s leaderboard was that he was playing
16566s worse it's that the meta moved away from
16569s what he knew best and what he was able
16571s to take advantage of that all of these
16573s other players in the lobby would be
16574s playing a matchup that he always had far
16577s more knowledge of yeah I mean absolutely
16580s and it's going to reflect in his game
16582s score here Mony as we see T225 rise to
16584s the top with six eliminations in first
16586s place finish for a game score of 11.4
16589s but crucially for A's Mike before he
16592s goes out he's able to pick up six
16594s eliminations and and he goes extremely
16598s deep into this Lobby Moxy so he makes
16600s the most of those six eliminations walks
16602s away with a game score of 8.2 which is
16604s likely going to still leave him in first
16606s place in the overall standings as we had
16608s out of here J team's action finding
16610s another good game though coming into
16612s third place here with four eliminations
16613s in the game score of 6.7 he continues to
16617s keep himself in the running with only
16619s two games left to go yeah and those
16621s players they they really wanted Mike out
16623s of that Lobby they very quickly
16625s identified especially when it's pandan
16626s and action chasing after that low Health
16628s Hardy a lot of the time Hardy is praised
16630s for being incredibly good in terms of
16632s aggression and the Damage that you can
16633s do with your ultimate but where his true
16635s strength lies is the fact that he can
16637s disengage right you're fighting a hardi
16639s he has the ultimate you blink and
16641s suddenly he's on another map entirely
16643s but pandaan just did not let that Hardy
16646s leave to the point that we actually saw
16648s Mike seemingly slip away into a bing and
16651s just cut line of sight cut noise from
16652s all of these other players entirely and
16654s pandaman is so smart he swaps to the fan
16657s and he throws out the lmv onto that
16659s building the corner of it on cool down
16661s as often as you possibly can and it
16663s leads action into understanding hey
16666s there's something in this building
16667s pandam man's not committing so I know I
16669s don't want to go through the doorway but
16670s I definitely want to swap to something
16672s like a cannon with that rupture Gale to
16674s push and force whoever is inside that
16676s building out and that's what we really
16678s do see a lot of these plays being
16679s incredibly smart in terms of picking up
16682s not just those cues but also
16684s understanding that you cannot allow
16685s something like a Hardy to slip away
16687s unnoticed to the point that you
16689s willingly potentially throw away a kill
16692s that you could have picked up for your
16693s own leaderboard to push your own score
16695s up to make sure that another player in
16697s the lobby understands hey in terms of
16699s this fight we should ignore each other
16702s and prioritize this player instead yeah
16704s I mean absolutely and in terms of way
16706s this particular Lobby you know lock down
16708s you saw Mike picking up so many
16710s eliminations throughout the game you saw
16713s that he was on hottie you very quickly
16715s begin to understand that if there's
16717s another hottie and there's only two
16719s hotties left in the lobby and he is
16720s dogging down this other player it makes
16723s it evident to everybody who already
16725s isn't aware that you are hunting A's mik
16728s J Team Action here cleaning up this
16730s elimination early on into the game onto
16732s zel there's just not a whole lot that
16734s they could do action favoring those dual
16736s blades this game T225 here into 521 is
16738s unique unique unfortunately nothing he
16741s can do here as soon as that ultimate
16742s comes out and this is something I praise
16744s T225 all of the time he is not afraid to
16748s burn the ultimate to secure an
16750s elimination he knows that it's a
16752s resource he can get the rage back A's
16755s Mike here with the eyes on top of his
16757s head as pandaan comes in and he picks up
16759s that Parry for the elimination over to
16761s Guild Frost of is here onto wbg spider
16764s early on into the game here with a
16765s massive pair and there's just nothing
16767s that spider can do frost of is here
16769s getting parried out by Mike as well
16771s picks up that elimination unfortunately
16773s Frost finds almost no no value after
16776s that as we come in here to Mike and
16778s pandan pandaman just nothing he can do
16780s in this situation both these players
16782s having him locked down so Mike clears
16784s not one but both of the vering birds
16786s might off the board well pandan had to
16788s die at that moment right he knows he's
16790s behind he knows he doesn't have his
16791s combo breaker he has to throw the towel
16793s in otherwise he's locked out of this
16794s Lobby for good and it's smart that he
16795s does because he gets to continue in the
16797s lobby as we get see T5 holding himself
16799s that scash absolutely beautiful catching
16801s on to panaman pushing him outside of
16804s that zone and then you can use that body
16806s block of the deada to Hold Your Position
16808s T25 knows that he's going to be able to
16810s survive all of that damage tick coming
16812s through from The Zone corruption and
16814s Outlast that faer and walk away with his
16818s MVP the first MVP for him and I mean
16821s it's his staple her like I said if all
16823s else fails td25 will always and will
16827s continue to be one of the most dominant
16829s decors not just in the pro league but
16832s also on the world stage yeah absolutely
16835s you take a look here 12,000 damage six
16837s kills three parries he's got the have to
16839s detach and dragonik might both of these
16841s Jades buying him a lot of success in
16843s this match he was able to follow up that
16845s Dragon light with the hot swap into the
16847s long sword misses the charge on purpose
16850s so that he can follow up with the Hep to
16852s detach through the wall and lock down
16855s wangang and it was just such a clean
16857s followup he also has the benic to follow
16860s up that Dragon Light and because of that
16861s you can take a look he gets 4,000 damage
16864s off the long sword 3K coming in from the
16866s Dual Howards and he was able to use that
16867s Katana into the conversion onto the Dual
16870s Howards multiple times this game so
16873s that's why you see just a little bit of
16874s damage coming in from the katana cuz it
16876s was just a tool for him to be able to
16878s convert into those dual blades and pick
16879s up a ton of damage and eliminations yeah
16882s and I mean you even saw it when he was
16883s facing that Justina right speaking about
16886s something else that you'll be able to
16887s see is our next question all you have to
16889s do is answer this in chat which hero did
16892s this match his MVP that is going to be
16894s Kayla's t five use and this is something
16897s that you should not off by hard whether
16899s or not you're just cheing in wherever
16901s you've been following his journey in
16903s Jacob throughout the rest of this year
16906s was it a Hardy was it B teada was it CZ
16908s ping or was it D any of the other heroes
16912s in our nraa available pool but no it's
16916s it's a joy to see I think it's definely
16917s going to have renewed his confidence I
16919s think he needed this game in fact I
16921s wouldn't be surprised if he goes for the
16923s double pick on teada given the fact that
16925s we have two maps left every single one
16928s of them has increased fireflies and that
16930s means that that teor ultimate is going
16932s to be online a heck of a lot more often
16934s yeah I mean absolutely he he definitely
16936s has the option like you said to pick it
16938s up for a second time heading into these
16939s Firefly Maps it's not on the hollow
16942s rooth where you typically find Comfort
16943s on toada but given the fact that there
16946s are so many fireflies and how much value
16947s he can find out of his ultimate even
16949s early game technically yes we are
16951s talking about a scaling hero that is
16953s able to use more of those food Rin the
16955s more he builds that gear up depending on
16957s the version of the ultimate that he's
16959s using but very very crucially is that in
16962s the early game that positioning that you
16965s get off of the vuran brings you so much
16969s value not to mention the extensions that
16971s you can get off of it as well and as
16973s soon as you're able to burn an F if you
16975s can just go ahead and raw pop that
16976s ultimate in somebody's face they don't
16978s have that F find control of the neutral
16980s There is almost nothing they can do
16982s about it in the early game to stop you
16985s from picking up an elimination and it's
16986s smart too because you know that you're
16988s going to be going into these two matches
16990s where so many people are going to be
16991s locking Hardy and as a result some of
16994s these players are going to be locking
16995s things like tul but also things like
16996s Justina to be able to counter that if
16998s you have teada we've already seen right
17001s if you can win the 1 V one to the point
17004s of that Justina having to utilize the F2
17007s a lot more early you can go for the
17010s conversion into that uppercut
17012s confirmation into something like I just
17014s contined down the katana or if you do
17016s have the weapon swap available something
17018s like the G hirs or the G blades and
17020s that's something that T25 is incredibly
17022s strong at doing this is one of the
17024s reasons why his T was so prevalent the
17026s amount of damage that he was able to
17028s convert just in One V ones even without
17031s the ultimate being available because he
17032s would push you into utilizing that f a
17035s lot earlier than he did and he would
17038s never be shy about being aggressive and
17041s being bullish enough to push you into
17044s that position as well but he was so
17046s smart in this instance where he knows
17049s when to hone that aggression and when to
17052s back on off because he has to know right
17054s if I reveal myself to every other player
17056s in the lobby we will say it again and
17059s again and again so that these new people
17061s who are coming in to jup or on the rord
17063s playpoint pro league they they recognize
17065s what exactly happens these Heroes these
17067s players they do not see the
17069s customizations they do not see the name
17071s plates they have no idea who they're
17074s fighting and until they figure out like
17076s oh so and so for a 0.9 that's got to be
17078s 225 or oh so and so is going for the
17080s Parry trap that has to be Mike as a
17083s result if you are playing one of these
17085s Heroes who is a small minority in
17089s comparison to every other hero remaining
17091s it becomes a whole lot more dangerous
17094s right the longer the game goes on
17096s because say you're running like Hardy
17098s but there is about three other Hardies
17100s in the lobby if you take a little bit of
17102s damage or maybe you take too much damage
17104s and you have to dis engage you can find
17105s the disengagement you can swap your
17107s weapon so that they don't go oh I was
17109s fighting a critical healthy and he had a
17111s sta so I'm just going to look for a
17112s critical Health Hardy with a staff you
17114s can swap your weapon you can disappear
17116s essentially using all of the other
17118s Hardies in the lobby as sort of smoke
17119s screen to be able to cut all noise and
17121s find the full reset if you are the only
17123s teada left alive in that Lobby that
17127s option unfortunately is not a smoke
17128s train it goes up in smoke all around you
17131s you do not get the opportunity to
17132s disengage especially because all of
17134s these players are very smart they
17136s understand that the longer the game goes
17137s on if that zone collapses in teada gets
17140s so much more value because it's not just
17142s the kill confirmation and conversion
17145s into the mechanical followup of the
17147s weapons that you have to worry about
17149s it's the fur and shels themselves
17150s pushing you into the Zone corruption
17152s take damage it's it's 100% the
17154s positioning a lot of people look at
17156s teada and go okay cool he's able to get
17158s combo extensions this is why he's such a
17160s strong hero etc etc but at the end of
17162s the day it's actually positioning n is
17166s at its core
17167s 80% positioning if you were able to
17170s force players into a bad position if you
17173s able to force them into a critically
17175s good position for yourself you have so
17178s much control in a fight that's why that
17181s maneuver that he used into the other
17183s teada was so risky because if you throw
17186s it out first you give teada control of
17189s the positional if you don't have the
17192s frame perfect tap Dodge T225 took the
17195s risk was able to come out and like you
17196s said this game was all about how he
17199s positioned himself on the map and how
17202s aggressively he pushed himself into
17204s these moments if you notice when we were
17206s watching that fight with wangle Yang we
17208s saw that T225 was nowhere near that
17210s fight when does he show up when it's
17213s positionally critical for him to be
17215s there to be able to zon keep wangle Yang
17218s he hits a massive long sword slash onto
17220s wangyang sending him into the zone and
17222s then what does he do he backs from that
17226s not overplay his and because of that he
17229s is able to Contin thee without exposing
17233s himself well he knows that Pan's in the
17235s area right he knows that pandaman has a
17237s fan so either the lmb or the R&B is
17239s coming out either way if T25 is in the
17242s line of fire he's going to get scooped
17244s right on up with Wang leang because fan
17246s takes no prisoners if you're in line of
17249s fire you're you're going straight on the
17251s plate alongside that fer who is right
17254s next to you you it's a huge reason why
17256s it's so dangerous it comes out so
17257s quickly it does so much damage that a
17259s lot of these times on these incredibly
17261s low Health targets I I love the xtg
17263s wangyang doll I'm not going to lie I'm
17265s really happy I was able to get my hands
17267s on one I'm definitely going to be asking
17269s wangang after this to be able to get
17271s that signature cuz xcg they're a team
17273s that are very very happy to just be
17276s showing support and I think that's
17277s something that this jaob has really
17279s highlighted a lot of these players not
17281s only are they the best at the best in
17284s terms of just mechanical press and micro
17286s understanding of this game at their
17288s heart they're just excitable kids who
17290s want to you know be noticed and see that
17292s a lot of people are supporting them and
17294s speaking of support you can be
17295s supporting your team if you head over to
17297s the Raa blade Point event page to be
17299s able to support and vote for your
17301s players as we head into game number five
17304s and those phase changes switch up yet
17306s again absolutely the phase Chang is
17308s going to be extremely critical here
17310s especially for a player like wbg spider
17312s who has a lot to do if he wants to climb
17314s back up this leaderboard in the
17316s following two games he is in that first
17318s phase which means the decision is all
17321s his does he double pick the teada or
17323s does he find his double pick inotti this
17325s game time is going to tell T25 in a very
17328s strong position as well he's coming off
17330s of a extremely critical game for himself
17332s he's able to come in he's probably going
17334s to be picking hottie into this game
17337s which opens up and leaves him the
17339s opportunity to take teada for that final
17341s game as he heads in to the third phase
17344s there
17345s is going to be locking the and WG SP
17348s still trying to make that crucial
17350s decision cuz this is his last
17352s opportunity in the first phase there it
17354s is he is going to lock hottie hottie
17356s will be banned out here as we head into
17358s phase two of our hero selection we're
17360s going to see an AOS coming in from 52
17363s one's unique followed up by Frost ofis
17366s locking the te to pick jdg chujang and
17368s ug's Pand coming in with tumult locking
17372s them down another tumult three four
17375s tumult into the lobby zelden going in as
17378s well onto the fairy pick and GG Shaw
17380s will be our last lock in ladies and
17382s gentlemen with 6 seconds on the board
17384s what will GG Shaw be playing there are
17386s no bands I mean other than the Hardy
17387s from group one which is more than
17389s expected oh hello that's unexpected
17393s that's not zel either that is a Tessa
17395s this is actually something that I've
17396s been a huge fan of right all the way
17398s through the qualifiers we would see
17400s players like zel locking that Tessa with
17402s the V2 to be able to counteract those
17404s Hardies it's so good you can't really ey
17407s frame it if you're in that Hardy
17408s ultimate right that teor is going to be
17410s able to attach it's going to be able to
17412s do that immediate snap of damage but
17414s more importantly it's also going to be
17415s able to point in the direction that the
17417s Hardy has run off too if he's using it
17419s in disengagement mode and as a result
17422s he's not going to be able to find the
17423s disengagement or the full reset you
17425s might be able to P off one po but either
17427s way give it a couple of 5 Seconds or so
17430s that Tes is immediately going to be
17431s following your footsteps as we can have
17433s a look in and see where those footsteps
17435s are going to be starting game number
17437s five we have two more on the docket run
17441s before we see someone on this stage walk
17444s away with that very pretty
17446s trophy well walk away the champion most
17450s importantly yeah the title is definitely
17452s important the money to 100% the dinner
17455s as well you know with with our net
17459s CEO as you take a look here you can see
17461s all of our players getting ready to lock
17463s in and as we head deeper into these
17466s games Moxy this is extremely crucial one
17470s shot where do you see a GG shot with the
17473s V1 I mean I like the V1 I honestly think
17476s the V1 is the best pick coming here into
17478s solos but crucially tt25 we talked about
17480s the potential of him playing teada a
17481s second time but it looks like he is
17483s locking hottie for the second time and I
17485s can't blame the guy given that he is in
17488s that phase one and he has the
17490s opportunity to come in and take the pick
17492s a second time spider in a Kuma will be
17494s joining him in the double pick for
17496s hottie as well as xgs Wang leang as you
17499s take a look though for tamies in this
17502s Lobby is going to make things pretty
17505s crazy going forward I'm also very very
17507s excited to see frost ofis on this toada
17510s pick this is something you and me talked
17511s about before we really enjoy watching
17514s Frost of his perform on teada and I hope
17517s that he doesn't feel like this is a bad
17519s pick for him going into this game
17521s because his teada is extremely strong
17524s it's really good as we can see where all
17525s of these players are going to be
17527s dropping yet again it is going to be a
17528s nighttime map so yet again it is going
17530s to be increased firepl rate so yet again
17532s everyone is prioritizing picking those
17534s up as quickly as possible and getting
17536s those ultimates online as it does look
17538s like we're going to have three players
17539s dropping to try and get the hands onto
17541s secret tunnel one of which is going to
17544s be El's Frost us that's going to be an
17546s absolute Race Against Time to try and
17549s figure out who's going to be able to get
17551s those online first especially for Decor
17553s it's so important important that you
17555s have that ultimate in the 1 V one as
17556s quickly as possible as 5 to1 unique and
17559s A's Mike both dropping on top of each
17561s other jdg shushen going to be off in the
17564s distance the F1 already coming on
17565s through from unique just to try and bat
17567s mik away as well as pick up that damage
17569s reduction onto the A's cool down as Mike
17572s looking to chase with that great Katana
17574s is going to be able to catch unique
17575s forcing him into the blue will be able
17579s to find the parry and unique is going to
17581s go immediately down able to push that
17585s acos into utilizing the F1 far too soon
17587s as Frost of is now going head to-head
17589s against J team's action the whisp out on
17591s coine for the tul action with the blue
17594s Katana looking to try and bait that par
17596s Frost is able to find the connection
17598s with the staff action playing waiting
17600s charging up the skish to be able to
17602s disengage allowing frost ofus a little
17604s bit of reset but also allowing action to
17606s fully heal up that gray Shield before he
17608s comes into the lmb frost trying to drop
17610s down with the focus strike is going to
17612s get intercepted the Parry coming through
17614s and action yet again is going to be able
17616s to find the connection with the lmb good
17618s thing for him he didn't utilize Any
17619s Corner however as the third party shows
17621s on up and after that Akuma with the
17624s ultimate fancies his chances in being
17626s able to walk away with a
17629s win action coming in oh my goodness now
17632s once but twice catches him out with the
17635s charg lmb off the dagger is able to
17637s slide underneath the Slash and pick up
17639s the elimination as we come back to GG
17641s Shaw also picking up an elimination onto
17643s AOW mic we're going to see the whsp
17645s invested going through from chuang Sha
17648s able to break away here he's looking for
17651s the reset as we come back to wangang and
17653s T225 who are both Airborne T225 able to
17656s find the slash out of the air wangang
17658s going to misread the situation
17660s unfortunately going to throw a little
17661s too early he's forced to let that one go
17663s but tt25 is going to end first wangang
17665s just needs to find one more no he gets
17667s griefed out by the terrain T225 tries to
17670s go Skyward he throws the F2 he hits the
17674s rooftop and wangang is able to catch him
17677s out and pick up the elimination those
17679s concussions whether it's
17681s cestro is they do grief you a spider
17684s gets griefed he falls off of the
17687s platform and goes directly into the
17689s vertical coming up for wangang is going
17691s to be able to find the power spider KN
17693s Back Against The Wall forcing to
17694s utilizing the F2 coming into the
17696s vertical train intercept wangang takes
17698s so much damage has to use the ultimate
17700s to keep the pressure up onto wangang who
17702s tries to come in with the LM on the
17704s halberts to catch onto the Hardy as he
17706s charges up that triple charge on the
17708s ultimate spider looking to catch wangang
17711s before the scar can come for him by the
17712s connection catches wangang into the
17715s light attack locked down spider just
17717s needing one more triple charge and he's
17718s going to be able to walk away with the
17720s kill so incredibly low as X is wangang
17722s the F2 utilized from the Hardy spider's
17724s ultimate runs out the third party coming
17727s through spider picks up the kill picks
17729s up the soul Bloom gets the health reset
17732s now has to deal with the additional
17734s coming on through from o and zel who is
17737s not happy coming in with that Tesla
17739s looking to catch on to the heart he
17741s knows that both the F2 and the ultimate
17742s are going to be on cool down spider
17744s choosing the wrong time to go for the
17746s red Flash and zel is going to punish
17748s spider sent back to the soul alter but
17750s crucially he was able to find the kill
17752s oh my goodness zel coming in there
17754s absolutely putting in the works as we go
17755s over to GG Shaw put the works on to JD
17758s G's Chu Jang Chu Jang finds the per he's
17761s going to come in and crucially he's not
17762s going to be able to get the follow up
17764s into the NES as Tess has got the E
17766s available but sha goes low he can't make
17769s it he is able to pick up the elimination
17772s before the seductress makes it happen oh
17775s shuang absolutely on the wre was that
17778s one if that enchantment had gone for who
17780s would have been absolutely cooked as A's
17783s Mike looking to just have a little bit
17785s of loot up has purple on the Z throwing
17787s out the lmb on that fan looking skinx
17789s onto xg's Wang leang forcing the Hardy
17792s out for away into the spacing of that
17795s pistol we're going to see that fan yet
17797s again having the pressure Wang and
17799s catching onto zel in case he tries to
17801s keep this aggression through the Bing
17803s Wang with the F2 going to be creating a
17806s lot more distance does still take a
17808s little bit of damage coming on out of
17809s that blue pistol that Z is so accurate
17812s at being able to land so accurate in
17813s fact that Wang leang has to go for the
17816s ultimate to be able to bully get that
17818s reset disappearing amongst the trees
17820s utilizing the bar to be able to block
17822s the line of sight will be able to find
17824s one heal currently letting it go through
17826s Z not able to find an angle to be able
17828s to convert that damage into a kill
17831s wangang now doesn't cancel the ultimate
17833s ear okay will conserve 1% but it's
17836s definitely not what he's going to be
17837s comfortable taking a fight with as we
17839s move over now to 521 unique here going
17842s head to-head with wbg spider for a
17844s second time here we go ladies and
17845s gentlemen the F going to be invested the
17847s damage reduction coming through from
17848s unique but unique does not want to let
17850s this elimination go he's going to keep
17852s giving the chase here zel might spill
17854s disaster for spider though using the
17856s leap to evade the dash coming in from
17859s spider we're going to see our boy unique
17862s playing this so well here on the oos he
17864s apparently knows this match up like the
17866s back of his hand Moxy the V2 coming in
17869s yet again unique not going to be able to
17870s connect onto them spider though going to
17872s live to fight another day here but Frost
17874s of is turning their attention here on to
17876s 521s Unique he knows that he does not
17879s have that ultimate and frost ofus is
17881s hungry to pick up an elimination as he
17883s continues to keep the chase going he's
17884s able to get the grapple cancel here onto
17886s unique looking for an opportunity to
17888s come in with the fan will not find it
17889s here is able to get just a little bit of
17891s pressure there but it's going to be gone
17893s yet again as unique will continue to
17895s keep moving Frost finally finds what
17898s he's looking for off the grapple but the
17899s F coming in there from unique will shove
17902s Frost ofis away unique needs to get some
17904s space here he's got 17 seconds left on
17906s the cool down if Frost is able to find
17908s the reconversion onto the Brewer and
17910s there's nothing unique can do he's
17912s trying to break the ankles up Frost of
17914s his here is going to head into the zone
17916s as he tries to keep things moving here
17918s he only has a couple seconds till the f
17920s is back up the fuin comes in it looks
17922s like unique doesn't have it there it is
17924s it's off cool down but can he survive
17925s the FID catches him again and he will go
17928s down to El's Frost ofus Frost following
17931s before that ultimate can run out able to
17933s find the connection and conversion
17934s damage off of those two shs Mike KN with
17937s the R&B forcing one of the hes into
17939s utilizing the F2 then swapping over to
17941s that purple musket to be able to try and
17943s land a little bit more damage so that
17945s that other player in the area continues
17947s to apply the pressure onto hardi
17949s ignoring entirely the gray armor Mike
17953s who gets away with absolute murder K's
17956s 25 now going to be going head-to-head
17958s against J team's action inside the realm
17960s of Yang blue staff blue armor J team's
17963s action purple non chokes blue armor for
17966s the tul both of these players going aiel
17967s looking to try and shun through that
17969s damage as quickly as possible actually
17970s nice swapping over onto those n charging
17972s it up will be a to find connection on T5
17974s who's coming in with the staff we're
17976s going to see him going into the rising
17978s Cloud action forcing now into utilizing
17980s the combo breaker of the F to carry
17982s himself over that potential scoop as T5
17984s charging up yet again manages to Juke
17987s action into thinking he's going to
17988s convert before going for the red flash
17990s of the Parry but action doesn't fall for
17991s it doesn't throw a focus to be able to
17993s Clank and as a result T5 now has to
17995s utilize the had ultimate action also
17998s throwing in the tulture ultimate to stop
17999s the hard from being able to find the
18000s connection both of these players going
18002s to just take this moment slow things
18004s down get that reset T5 about to lose
18007s that ultimate action's also going to be
18008s disappearing in a matter of moments the
18010s Tom stand not in the way T5 coming in
18013s able to entirely chump down all of that
18015s armor will be able to come in with the
18017s one two hasn't got the F2 now will be
18019s able to use it tries to turn around but
18021s action finds the power 25 now with the
18024s dual blades overh holding C night to go
18027s for the red flash but action doesn't go
18029s for the Clank yet again he does not fall
18032s for t5's BL oh my goodness I love to see
18036s it action trying to find his way back to
18038s the top of the leaderboard here on three
18040s eliminations aw's Mikey wbg spider going
18043s head tohe here spider on such a back
18045s foot he's not been able to get away from
18046s that white fan and white armor the
18048s pressure has been maintained on him this
18050s entire time he's just looking to keep
18053s his game alive here he knows if he can
18055s find a way to scale up here on to hotti
18057s this could be the game he's been looking
18059s for all day but the pressure will not be
18062s alleviated is both sha and A's Mike
18065s continue the hunt onto spider spider no
18068s the conversion catches him just on the
18071s edge of the building he will be seduced
18074s spider Falls to A's Mike ladies and
18078s gentlemen sha feeds him to the blender
18082s Mike slipping in sees that spider's
18084s going to get that CC knows that he's not
18086s going to be close enough for that Sal
18087s ear now thinks that he can come in and
18090s get a second yet again the Tessa not
18092s having the F available Mike coming and
18094s going to lock her down with the ultimate
18096s to be able to confirm this kill and he
18098s sees one player low one player week one
18102s player who has the upgrade Mike
18104s desperately needs in terms of that
18105s scaling Frost of us on the back foot
18107s going to go down in the meanwhile to
18108s xg's wangang the howdy ultimate cut
18111s short unfortunately froster versus
18113s experience in this Lobby cut short
18115s alongside it the soul blim still on the
18117s body as that was only our first realm of
18119s Yang run this Lobby has been so
18122s aggressive has been reduced to players
18123s so quickly it really does not feel like
18126s we still have a second realm of Yang to
18128s spawn as T25 is going to have to pick up
18131s a soul blo if he even wants to be able
18132s to have a chance of seeing that come
18135s into play yeah absolutely T225 here like
18137s you said it needs a soul blo he's got 2
18139s minutes and 35 seconds left remaining to
18142s make that happen he is here in even TI
18145s Temple where a number of players are he
18147s either needs to look for a player and
18150s fully commit or look for an opportunity
18152s where somebody else commits to a fight
18153s and he's able to slide in and pick up a
18155s soul bloom or steal the kill outright
18157s Moxy continuing it to see all of the
18160s action going on pandaan here off to a
18163s terrible start here he's going to lose
18164s most of that purple armor and it's going
18166s to continue to take a lot of damage and
18168s here's T225 chance zel is going to get
18170s away with murder here because pandaan
18172s goes low and T225 needs this to happen
18175s he needs to make this opportunity come
18178s through for himself can he get the S
18180s Bloom it doesn't he no he's not able to
18183s secure the soul BL Chang picks up the
18185s elimination and now looks to pick one up
18187s on T225 T225 almost griefed out there oh
18190s my goodness the all coming in twoj finds
18193s one he finds two and that's going to be
18196s it for
18197s T225 Deni is the soul Bloom denies the
18200s disengage with the ultimate if a hard
18203s and Al fly through a windall you lose
18205s the power of flight and a grinded for
18207s three seconds but T5 is going to be
18209s grounded a little bit longer than that
18210s in fact he's going to be grounded until
18212s the last game
18213s of the day Mike free kills J team's
18216s action overtaking T5 as well in this
18220s match free to free for both of these
18222s tumults everyone now looking to try to
18226s just posture on up to play for that
18228s little bit of later game xg's wangang
18231s wanting to have that experience but Z
18233s unfortunately as a result is left out to
18236s try entirely no one wants to commit to a
18239s fight when there are so many players in
18240s the area and as a result this F has not
18244s been able to find a single player who
18245s wants to hold into that one V one now
18248s has to try and go Toe to Toe and force
18249s the fight against anyone that he sees it
18251s looks like it's going to be that tul the
18253s lmb coming on for from zel the jump par
18255s attempt if pandan looks to lock him down
18258s zel finds the power Pand losing the
18260s armor forced into utilizing the ultimate
18262s is going to knock Z with the grapple
18264s conversion into the wind wall and yet
18267s again the f is fall out of the fight but
18269s do is Akuma dropping down with the fan
18271s griefs pandam man denied the soul Bloom
18275s is going to go down to Yang depletion
18276s but Akuma takes him down first oh my
18279s goodness Akuma coming in finding double
18281s eliminations here chujang looking to
18282s come in and find yet another elimination
18285s for this game but Akuma here still with
18288s the old in the back pocket the F2 going
18289s to be back off cool down as we speak to
18292s Jang more than happy to let Akuma walk
18294s away and pick the body here but now
18296s wants to play gatekeeper here onto drg's
18299s Akuma he has the Bounty onto Akuma as
18302s well he could crucially Pi with darktide
18304s coins that he needs heading into late
18305s game but chujang walks into the R&B
18307s there from akuma's fan Akuma keeping the
18310s pressure up and chuang might have just
18312s griefed his own game here as he
18313s continues to take so much Zone T he's
18315s going to be forced to utilize the
18316s ultimate just to look for an opportunity
18318s to find a reset he's coming back in
18321s ladies and gentlemen the meter dump on
18323s to Akuma two Shang Against All Odds
18327s comes in he finds the soul Bloom he
18329s finds so much damage he finds the whisp
18332s as we head to the realm of Moxy yeah
18334s speaking about so much damage the R&B on
18336s those purple hars have done so much to
18338s Mike's health bar the armor broken the
18340s whisp from Mike converting into the
18341s musket shot the H F2 going to be canel
18344s right early into the ultimate does xtg
18345s is Wang the and go continuing the
18347s pressure not allowing Mike to get that
18349s conversion wangang flying ahead on top
18352s of that ultimate from the tul not going
18354s to get grounded out of that flight Mike
18356s denied any opportunity until now to be
18358s able to find that re Shield wangang
18360s taking the opportunity as well was
18362s playing to the left to the hard wangang
18364s no can close up the distance without
18365s getting cced drops onto Mike pushes
18368s himself away before the katana Focus TR
18370s can catch him knows the Mike is going to
18372s go for a second run back of the focus
18374s strike finds the power he finds the kill
18376s finds the win over to the second real of
18379s Yang taking place here it's j team's
18381s action versus JD G's chuang with 60
18383s seconds left remaining in the realm of
18385s Yang here it's our lovely fan versus the
18388s nunchucks action has been absolutely
18390s putting in work here this is something I
18392s have talked about since the invention of
18395s the fan coming through Moxy here trigger
18397s on those nunchuks this is something JT's
18399s been using all day to find Victory after
18403s Victory and it looks like he might just
18404s do it again it catches the uppercut off
18406s of the nunchuck onto the tamy tamy goes
18408s so low action just needs to find one
18410s more hit xang going to get grapple
18412s cancel here but he finds the R&B off of
18415s the fan oh my God I mean speaking about
18419s F things A's Mike was able to find a
18423s soul blim he'd kept one in the back
18425s pocket so that young depletion that he
18427s had he doesn't have to worry about that
18429s I don't know if JT's action is going to
18431s be in a similar scenario but run we are
18434s going to be down to the last four
18435s players When J team's action respawns
18438s and that is not a position that you want
18440s to be in when you know that you have
18441s four minutes s for timer that it takes
18444s to be able to pick yourself up from that
18446s Soul alter in fact yeah there he is did
18448s action leave a soul Blom in even tide
18453s looks like he's headed in a very
18454s specific area I think this might be a
18458s man who had a backup plan I mean for
18462s tion he usually does he almost never
18464s takes a real of Yang without when it
18466s looks like he's going to go past and
18468s looks like the one that Mike took Mike
18471s coming in grieving action game action in
18473s a really bad position he's been in the
18475s zone for too long he's going to have
18477s that heal depletion coming through he
18479s has to win this fight almost
18480s instantaneously Mike knows he's got to
18482s get back in Zone as well cuz those ticks
18484s are coming in heavy action able to get
18487s in will he be able to get the pot back
18489s off he's done so much work onto Mike
18491s that Mike isn't going to look to turn
18493s back in he has 3 minutes left remaining
18497s here he has to find an elimination and
18499s keep the pressure up but crucially was
18500s able to get the reset there we go AIT
18502s coming in with those nun checks again he
18504s catches the Tami on the uppercut there
18506s is able to find the follow through is
18508s able to avoid the whisp as well but Mike
18510s moving so fast looking to break the
18512s angles of J team's action as action it
18515s just needs to find a way back into this
18517s game and it's Mike who might have just
18519s griefed him out of it yeah Mike picking
18522s up the soul blo but also sticking in the
18523s area knowing that there's a chance that
18525s whoever left that Soul Blom is going to
18527s double back to pick it up themselves and
18530s he can utilize the fact that it's in the
18531s zone the corruption take damage eating
18533s at their health that they're going to be
18534s desperate to all themselves in the fight
18536s they're not going to look to disengage
18537s which opens up or rather shuts the door
18540s on the potential for that third Cardy
18542s all my C to do is kite and action's
18544s going to soon get pretty desperate and
18545s have to stop throwing out these Focus
18547s strikes which is exactly what Mike is
18548s going to be looking to punish when he
18550s looks the some of these pares there it
18552s is action forced into throwing the focus
18555s trke forced into utilizing the ultimate
18557s to try to regain control of any of the
18559s tempo goes in with the lmb on the hit
18562s but the thir body comes on through jdg
18565s Shang and xcg is Wang leang showing on
18569s up Wang leang with the last couple of
18571s moments Mike no mik took too long and
18575s the corruption took damage he griefed
18577s himself by trying to grief another
18579s player I don't I don't know if wangyang
18581s knows wangyang doesn't know that Mike's
18583s gone down here he has to come in and
18585s still find a way to get back into this
18587s game the Parry coming through from
18589s chuang wangang just trying to keep it
18592s alive ladies and gentlemen the extion
18595s also in the zone looking to see where
18597s Mike went down trying to find that so
18599s wangang needs to use the AL here he can
18601s he stay alive just needs a single shot
18603s onto him but it doesn't look like aen
18606s was able to find the soul Bloom
18608s unfortunately Wang Lang just needs to
18610s find some heals he's able to get the
18611s armor fully charged back up here he's
18613s going to move away he knows extion
18616s doesn't want to take the fight here
18617s unfortunately this is going to be it for
18619s J team's action that lovely Yang
18621s depletion is going to take him from the
18623s lobby soon but Wang looks to go for it
18625s unfortunately he's not able to get there
18626s he's going to keep his game moving 50
18629s seconds left remaining here for J Team
18631s Action to find an elimination he has to
18634s keep chasing on to wangang if he wants
18637s it no heals in the back pocket as Moxy
18639s says keeping the pressure of tion knows
18643s he has to win the fight here Wang Lang
18645s doesn't have the ultimate this could be
18646s crucial for J team's tion but he only
18649s has 30 seconds he finds the way into the
18651s fight but Chu Jang coming in for the
18652s third party is going to grief J team's
18655s action out of it chuang will come in
18657s with the legendary fan going to catch a
18659s ton of damage onto action action has no
18661s way to heal the HP here he has to look
18664s to win the neutral to win the fight can
18666s he find the meter dump does he go for
18668s the overhall no he can't afford to do it
18669s if he takes one light attack he's going
18671s to go down ladies and gentlemen JT's
18673s action feeling forced to move away here
18676s the ult being invested here by the
18678s lovely chuang chuang will find the
18681s elimination off the back of the whis and
18682s he will find that Soul Bloom One V one
18686s now tal ultimate already being invested
18688s from shuang to isolate J team's action
18691s wangang knows she doesn't have his
18693s ultimate either we're going to see both
18694s of these players coming in fan versus
18697s Katana is it going to be the w picked on
18700s up no Shang not able to find the CC onto
18702s the Hardy instead decides to put himself
18704s onto the rooftop with the scour from the
18706s fan to wait for that cool down to come
18708s back online before he decides to put
18710s himself into this fight yet again XG
18712s wangang looking to maybe try and fake
18714s out that commitment onto the heel to
18716s push usang into action we're going to
18718s see The One V one purple armor already
18720s almost broken from wangang side one to
18722s uppercut conversion forc shuang into
18724s utilizing the combo break to escape any
18727s of the repercussions and we got see
18728s wangang with the R&B on those du
18730s halberts finding the connection of the
18731s one two three onto Shang one two Opa
18734s conversion into R&B on the Dual halberts
18736s shuang 5 seconds left going to be able
18738s to turn things around overh holding on
18740s the F to buy himself back that time to
18742s be able to come back in with the combo
18743s breaker if yet again he falls for the
18745s uppercut conversion from wangang the F2
18747s now invested from the Harding not able
18749s to Chase and find any punishment with
18751s the upper cut on that fan both of these
18754s players looking to bite enough time for
18756s those ultimates to come through Shang
18758s coming in one two Hardy ultimate KN
18760s being invested Shang to come over the
18762s tul ultimate also going to be able to
18764s drop it potentially on top of the mor
18766s blessing to pick up the armor reset
18768s shuang getting a little bit too greedy
18771s Wang leang unfortunately in the middle
18773s of the tul ultimate denying the armor
18776s reset from shuang no legendary armor for
18779s anyone but he goes into the wind wall he
18781s loses the F he comes in with the R&B he
18784s alls the focus to tou the whis and now
18787s it's going to be wangang beating out all
18789s of the cool downs from Shang Shang
18791s trying to cut the fight over towards
18793s that moris bling Wang with R&B on the
18794s dill H is able to Zone Wang him away
18797s from being able to pick up the armor
18799s reset and wangley and to Salt in the
18801s wounds picks it up himself and yet again
18804s shuang is forced to disengage and try
18807s and kite for that cool down to come back
18809s on line and to find himself in a more
18810s favorable position with the reset set
18812s catches the one the light attack onto
18814s wangang wangang taking so much damage
18817s from the gust of that legendary fan puts
18819s himself onto the roof finds the scal
18821s rush moves away from the R&B follow up
18823s from shuang both of these players yet
18825s again finding the reset a fight not
18827s really having breaken out here meaning
18829s that there's still so much resources in
18831s the area tuna kicking on in from shuang
18834s both Wang leang and Shang two players in
18837s the exact same mind with almost the
18839s exact same setup on those soes able to
18842s keep that hetic going for a little bit
18844s longer when the fight breaks out yet
18846s again wangang overh holding the red
18848s Flash coming on through the one the two
18850s immediately you can see the Tom getting
18852s so press that he has to utilize the F to
18854s be able to break away from that weapon
18856s swap Wang now coming in with the R&B on
18858s those du hits looking to continue
18860s applying this pressure making sure that
18862s Shang is not able to find the recent
18864s opportunity the grapple into the
18866s conversion off the horizontal from the
18868s habits the R&B sping but Wang leang
18870s loses the hits as as a result thankfully
18873s he has a legendary weapon still in the
18875s back pocket to be able to scale this
18877s hard the ultimate damage he goes for the
18878s scare Rush on the P to find the
18879s conversion onto shush one two the R&B on
18882s the fan pushing you out of being able to
18885s find the follow up the one two the
18886s crapple bump shush able to bre the
18888s second gra up and third and four and El
18892s and again we see the hard takes so much
18895s damage when the with the ultimate able
18897s to dodge away the F2 coming up just in
18899s time to be able to get out of that on
18902s infinite juggle coming on for from the
18904s tumult this fight has been going up for
18905s so long the whis catching wangang in the
18907s air the follow up from shuang the
18909s grapple to stun wangang into the ground
18912s so that he can look for the tech chase
18913s the hone ultimate still however taking
18915s for a little bit longer ille wangang has
18918s out of the F but he goes too low he goes
18920s into the R&B pop and now he's still in
18922s the back foot he looks to find the
18924s conversion into the katana overh holding
18925s this placing so that shushing yet again
18928s is for to try and back on off the
18929s grapple cancel before the scarers can
18931s come on through and R you going to have
18932s to take over because this fight been
18934s going so dumn oh my goodness JD gang
18937s here making it happen ladies and
18938s gentlemen able to catch to the multiple
18940s W but wangyang will find the overhaul
18941s chuang able to get the T through the
18943s Parry yet again that's triple parry's
18946s wangang coming back in with the great
18948s sword Chang going to be able to break
18950s away as the Fight Continues yet again
18952s and both players look for another reset
18956s ladies and gentlemen we are watching
18958s history in the making this might be the
18960s longest solos fight have ever seen in
18963s the history of nraa on the pro
18965s competitive stage Wang leang will get a
18968s full reset yet again chuang looking for
18971s the opportunity but he might be out of
18973s resources this might be where chuang
18976s goes down he's going to add salt to the
18978s wound he picks up the lovely bounty on
18981s the wangang wangang coming in yet again
18983s he's looking for it he M times the Parry
18986s he sees wangang turns it away the second
18988s time chuang looking to make it happen
18990s here he's not going to find it he finds
18992s it finally wangang parried five times
18995s out in this fight juang coming in will
18997s find the conversion in there's no F2 but
18999s wangyang will have the ultimate soon he
19002s needs to kill him before it comes online
19004s there it is does xuang have the ult it
19006s doesn't look like he has it there it is
19008s in the back pocket and the fight will
19011s continue on here as Chang continues to
19014s try to find a weakness in the hottie he
19017s just can't make it happen the RB
19018s conversion wng there it is ladies and
19021s Gent
19022s JD G's 2J comes out on top you know that
19026s fight that one V one almost went as long
19029s as the entire rest of the lobby survived
19033s it was like back and for and back and
19036s for the hard Falls low the a much for
19039s slow both have the combo breaker both
19042s back on off both take the reset both
19044s swap to those weapons with the threat of
19047s that scale Rush that you do not want to
19049s try and
19050s prush oh I I mean it's so smart coming
19053s from both of these players right you can
19055s see the game plan that's just
19057s formulating and that's what's so
19059s impressive about these Pro players that
19060s they can look at these really Niche
19062s situations and so quickly literally on
19065s the Fly of your ATI pick up solutions
19068s that you're never really faced with like
19071s trying to kite the fight as a tumult so
19073s that you can have your ultimate not to
19075s lock down the other player but to take
19077s it into the mor lusting and then what's
19079s even smarter is that the hotti sees that
19082s happening he goes oh okay this toos is
19085s backing away I know that El's coming
19087s back online I know that he's definitely
19089s going to be utilizing that to
19091s potentially buy himself the space but
19093s the Mars blessing is about to come into
19094s play and there's a really fun
19096s interaction with hottie and ul Ultimate
19099s that you also have with things like
19101s Justina right that ul Ultimate it only
19104s affects when you go inside and outside
19107s essentially through the wind W right so
19110s if at the beginning of that UL cast of
19113s The Ultimate you're already safe in the
19116s middle of where the ul Ultimate wants to
19118s be you don't take the hit on the stamina
19122s and crucially for the hard it doesn't
19125s cancel your ultimate for 3 seconds and
19128s as a result he turns his attention away
19131s from trying to catch the tul on the
19134s disengagement into griefing the play of
19139s dropping AOL ultimate on the moris
19141s blessing to able to control it undivided
19144s because the hard is zoned out by the
19145s Windle entirely and to add insult to
19148s injury he goes oh you want this this
19151s legendary armor this this nice new shiny
19153s armor this right here I'm going just oh
19156s this is mine now you wanted it no no no
19158s no no no no no I got this and yet again
19161s we just see reset after reset after
19163s reset after reset because that legendary
19165s armor just always enables the hardi to
19167s be able to Chun through all of the
19168s damage and clip back into the F2 I'm
19171s going to cut you off so you can catch
19172s your breath Moxy cuz you were going that
19174s fight was absolutely insane that might
19177s go down in history as one of my favorite
19179s fights that we've ever seen but I think
19181s at the end of the day jdg Chu Jang just
19183s wanted it more you you could see it in
19185s his eyes you could see by the way he was
19188s fighting he had opportunities where he
19190s could have risked it instead of risking
19192s it he knew they were the only two
19193s players left in the lobby they continued
19195s to go for the reset he griefs himself
19197s like you said when he went in and he
19199s dropped that ultimate onto the Box I
19202s really thought he had griefed himself
19204s out of the game all he needed to do was
19207s drop that ultimate so that the box was
19209s either on the edge of his ultimate or on
19212s the outside of it with the hotti trapped
19214s inside but it's not what happened the
19216s hottie gets the read he panics just a
19219s little bit drops the all in the worst
19221s possible position but at the end of the
19223s day they take it toet to toe I do
19225s believe at the end it was eight full
19228s resets back and forth between the two
19230s players but J D's Chang just wanted it
19233s more he was hungry for it he needed to
19236s come in and make something happen in
19237s this game if he had any opportunity of
19240s walking away the champion and he was
19241s able to do it Not only was he able to do
19243s it but he's able to do it on a hero that
19246s these players have been picking up as a
19248s defensive option for if things go bad
19250s during the phase pick and he walks away
19254s with like eight eliminations there is
19256s eight eliminations in the first place
19257s finish meaning a game score of 14.2
19260s which is the highest score Bing game we
19262s have seen all day that's 100% going to
19265s have a huge ripple effect in terms of
19268s our overall leaderboard as well oh my
19271s goodness like you said I think that was
19273s one of my favorite fights in all of the
19276s rocket in fact probably when we cut to
19277s like the replay of the match it's only
19279s going to be about a ninth of what that
19283s fight actually ended up being it's it's
19285s s smart like you said he doesn't overc
19287s commit he does have that little bit of a
19289s hiccup in terms of the positioning of
19291s the ultimate but in terms of following
19293s up after he has the perfect weapon he
19296s has the fan which we talk about how fast
19298s it comes through we talk about how much
19299s damage the R&B does we haven't really
19301s addressed the fact that that hit box the
19305s verticality on that hit box crucially is
19308s absolutely ginormous so if say you get
19311s hit midair as a hardi by the CC on that
19314s ult whis normally you're like oh well
19316s it'll be okay no weapon can really reach
19318s me unless it's an uppercut but the R&B
19321s on that fan does so much damage and so
19324s much stagger that shuang is able to
19327s utilize that one little bit those couple
19330s of moments where that Hardy is stuck in
19332s that one position with the R&B into full
19336s conversion before we hit into he had
19338s another reset if he hadn't found that
19340s moment honestly I don't think we go
19342s eight resets I think we go into Zone
19344s collapses absolutely but speaking of
19347s throwing that fan out jdg Shu Jang has
19349s crucially thrown himself all the way
19351s into third place surp passing T225 and
19355s Wang leang and he is within distance he
19359s is nine points behind if we come in to
19363s this next game and the lobby can hold
19365s A's mic to zero like we saw in this
19368s previous Lobby it is going to be jdg
19371s chuang who has an open opportunity to
19374s walk home with the trophy the prize
19377s money and the title oh that lmb
19382s onto action into the par from frost and
19384s then the conversion as well into the
19385s next lmb Z Now griefing spider the scare
19389s Rush on that P sword just pushing spider
19392s into absolute panic mode goes for the
19393s red flash twice misreading the
19396s opportunity as a result puts himself
19398s into a really rough position as Mike
19400s sees that Tesa V1 knows the T player and
19404s will be able to find that kill taking
19406s spider out of the lobby Mike there
19408s getting to pick up GG sha not leaving
19410s any room for potential third party with
19411s the ultimate as JD Shang there's the
19414s moment that pandan loses that a milon
19416s birds M there's the moment that one of
19417s our players is griefed out of being able
19419s to pick up a soul balloom as speaking
19421s about absolute GP that's absolute creef
19425s T is the ca nowhere to go held into
19427s position by a ult whisp into the windall
19429s into the metum that's there's no I
19432s playing that unfortunately I mean CH
19435s Jang took a massive risk turning into
19437s that fight to begin with he it was all
19440s or nothing for him when he turned around
19442s that corner he had to find the perfect
19445s position to make that play happen and he
19448s was already at heal depletion he needed
19451s to get in there he needed to make that
19453s happen he needed to pick up the soul
19455s booom and he was able to do it and not
19457s only was he able to do it he was able to
19458s take it all the way as we're about to
19460s see tamy on the stage for the MVP so
19463s much for being a defensive pick just so
19466s that you don't have a bad game as we see
19468s time and time again tamy has been here
19470s as the MVP for every single stage of the
19473s jcup finals here it is ladies and
19475s gentlemen jdg chujang his first MVP of
19478s the jcup 28,000 damage eight
19481s eliminations and nine pares Moxy
19486s 16,21 damage on the fan that's crazy
19490s like we've said a lot of these Heroes
19491s these players as well they did coming
19493s into the SE to just sort of like that
19495s damage control hero right you don't get
19497s your te your teada you don't get your
19499s Hardy you don't get your Faria
19502s maybe we're going to go to m kind of
19503s kind just both you get the spacing you
19506s can push your opponent into backing on
19508s off because they have to utilize things
19509s like the blue Focus to be able to get
19511s through those wisps so a lot of the time
19513s even if you don't successfully find the
19515s CC you're still buying yourself a little
19518s bit of a reset not the full reset mind
19519s you but enough to be able to take those
19522s opportunities and back on off entirely
19525s and I think honestly for me like my
19527s favorite part of that entire Lobby it
19531s wasn't the killing blow it was the
19534s grapple juggle it was one grapple juggle
19538s two grapple jugle free grapple jugle
19540s full grapple jugle it would have gone on
19542s until Infinity until that hottie F2 was
19545s able to come back into C down in fact
19547s that would have decided the game
19549s entirely if that hotti F2 hadn't come
19552s back into play that is insane to see and
19556s the skill of being able to do that in
19559s the moment like so often we see what
19561s grapple juggle into you know something
19562s like a weapon swap into the Dual hit R&B
19565s or the dual blades but that that grapple
19568s juggle I think is my favorite of the
19570s entire jaob so far well this is
19571s something we talk about all the time
19573s right the reason we don't see multiple
19575s grapple juggles here on the stage in Pro
19577s competitive play is it simply not
19579s optimal you're not doing enough damage
19581s fast enough to be able to pick up the
19583s elimination and get away without the
19585s threat of that third party because the
19587s longer you stay engaged in a fight the
19590s more risk you run of the third party
19592s coming through so we only places we
19594s typically see that is something like the
19596s realm of Yang where somebody knows that
19597s they're able to come out on top places
19600s like that right speaking of coming out
19602s on top you guys are going to have a
19603s chance to come out on top here if you
19604s can answer this question for me in twit
19606s chat which player earned the most score
19608s in this match was it a j team section B
19611s owns zeling C jdg chujang and D drg's
19615s Akuma if you can't get this one right I
19617s I I don't know what to tell you but I
19619s really I I want to go back to that Point
19621s real quick because it's very important
19623s for people to understand that these
19626s extensions things like the heaven step
19627s and the continual regle into these
19630s combos yes they're flashy yes you were
19633s able to catch players out and do a ton
19634s of damage in an isolated fight but here
19638s on the professional stage you're never
19640s going to see that isolation happen but
19642s speaking of isolation we're going to
19644s isolate ourselves for just a second as
19645s we sent to a video before we come back
19647s for the final game and Crown our
19649s champion here at the 2023 Jacob
19658s cup teacher the water here is also
19661s contaminated the contamination is only a
19668s symptom to find the cause we must look
19679s elsewhere
19709s yeah
19723s [Music]
19739s what
19744s [Music]
19783s Jacob has always been a story in the
19787s making of a whole year of Nora honestly
19790s I think if we're talking about the
19792s highlight of Jacob Grand finals we have
19793s to talk about the fact how it's not just
19795s CN leading the meta but it's other
19798s regions that are having a huge impact
19800s just a bit but it's not going to be
19803s enough I think there's a huge spot light
19806s on M spider this is a story line that's
19809s been going for an entire year spider
19811s lifted the TR last year but everyone
19813s said well would you really be able to do
19814s it if Mike was here Mike came along
19816s Mike's here oh my there it is and Mike
19819s with the grapple combo into Phoenix
19822s blast takes the second game of the day
19826s CM kind of had counted hottie out as a
19828s hero for solos oh nicely done he cats
19831s them inside of the face this is the
19833s opportunity to get the finish and this
19835s could be the opportunity that he's been
19837s waiting for he but it was the na players
19839s who came over and showed them just how
19841s dominant of force that hottie can be I'm
19844s definitely going to be keeping my eye on
19845s Wang leang as well I mean the guy is an
19848s absolute demon so does wangang and
19851s wangang is going to actually eliminate
19853s viper out of this game as well zel is
19856s another player who's absolutely inspired
19858s me as well zeld didn't now on the test
19860s are able to find a huge Parry to convert
19862s into that repulse damage catching Frost
19865s I think Frost is the way forward where
19867s you are able to earn the respect of all
19869s of these other regions I want to say
19871s thank you to frost ofus for not only
19874s just continuing to follow in the
19875s Stepping Stones set by other players in
19877s the na and sea region and continuing to
19880s lay that foundation and prove that it's
19883s not just Cen who controls the meta I'm a
19886s te F go here and just giving them so
19890s much of a barbecue hey can I get behind
19892s number three like always baby as now
19895s it's going to start to skip through the
19896s sand siphon comes in they're going to
19898s quarter them off the outside Roy HEI
19901s trying to stay alive but it's not going
19902s to be enough s te is going to be
19904s victorious in your game number two this
19907s is a team that I've been following for a
19908s very long time this is a team that I
19910s have a lot of respect for this is a team
19913s that was playing something that wasn't
19915s entirely meta before it became the meta
19918s in fact they would have want to sort of
19919s innovate it having a Wen teleport your
19921s entire team is an absolute Touch of
19925s death the te play it perfectly every
19928s single region coming through informing
19931s The Meta and all of these players having
19933s to adapt on fly as they get here and
19935s realize that hey our region is not the
19938s only dominant region there is I think
19941s that's super incredible and speaks a lot
19944s about how exciting this Jacob's going to
19945s be what are you doing here M wants to
19949s try and shock these kills
19951s he's playing the F2 he the kill the
19955s MVP let's go yes big do talking about
19960s BBE for the other regions lady and
19976s gentlemen welcome back ladies and
19979s gentlemen to the beautiful stage here in
19982s chenu I'm your host and your Caster the
19983s Rune keeper joining me is the lovely
19985s Moxy and we are one game away from
19988s crowning your solos Champion here in the
19991s 2023 jcup World Championships and it's
19995s still up in the air it could be A's Mike
19998s it could be JD G's chuang or anybody
20001s sitting in the top five right now this
20004s final game is going to determine it all
20006s and I hope you're sitting on the edge of
20008s your seats because you're going to need
20010s it cuz if this was game five you can bet
20013s game six is going to be one of the most
20014s crazy experiences we've ever had here
20017s for nraa blade point I mean maybe not
20019s the
20021s edge with with how long that last fight
20024s went on it if if you a little bit too
20026s close to the edge of your seat I think
20027s you might fall off of it by the time
20029s that we actually finish and decide who
20032s is going to be walking away with that
20034s title because like you said r that was
20037s game five we have one more game these
20039s players they know they have one more
20041s chance and that's when everything is put
20043s on the line right from start to finish
20046s there is no reason to hold anything back
20049s just like there's no reason not to join
20051s the official nraa play point Discord
20053s server you know there's some absolutely
20055s wonderful people there's some really
20057s nice community events that are always
20058s going on you can find a lot of players
20060s to be able to Buddy up with so you can
20063s run your Duos and your triers without
20065s having to worry about random wuen
20068s counceling your ultimate early because
20070s they got a little bit worried about the
20072s potential of a threat and they threw in
20073s the V1 just as you were using your y to
20076s Ultimate which hasn't happened to me I I
20078s wouldn't know anything about that well
20080s you know what's not a threat Moxy you
20082s can see it right there in the corner of
20084s our screen I'm pointing to it right now
20085s that is the trophy sitting down on the
20087s stage that's how close we are to
20090s crowning a champion right now and what
20094s an insane year it has been Moxy and I
20097s say this every single time we come to
20100s look these incred cosplayers the Wen the
20103s T surprised Duncan is like up in the
20106s stands grabbing that guy being like
20108s where did you get this cosplay is
20111s shoulders our lovely trovy ladies and
20113s gentlemen sitting down right there
20115s center stage and like I said we are
20118s absolutely blessed when it comes to nraa
20120s these games always come down they're
20122s super tight they go down to the final
20125s moments of the final game and not only
20126s are we blessed in that way but I say it
20129s every single time I go I don't think
20130s anything is ever going to Top This
20132s Moment I don't think anything's going to
20133s top that moment and then we continue to
20136s go every single year and then we have a
20138s fight like this where eight full resets
20141s take place plus tuna plus much health
20144s was healed up by both play is having
20147s tuna we we cut to jdg Shu Jang and he's
20150s using tuna and I was like there it is
20152s there's it his Advantage he's going to
20154s Lo this we cut right back to W like tuna
20157s tuna and I'm just like oh my goodness I
20161s I love it it's it's moments like these
20163s that make history in Esports and that
20166s moment you can bet it's going to be up
20167s on Billy Billy it's going to be up on
20169s YouTube it is going to be up everywhere
20171s and people are going to be talking about
20173s that fight for years to come yeah I mean
20176s it was the fight that killed both of our
20180s voices like if you tune up tomorrow
20182s you're like huh Moxy and R sound a
20184s little bit of horse maybe it's because
20187s we had to Hype fight literally at top
20190s level bell curve of casting for a solid
20194s eight resets in fact I I can't wait to
20197s see the stats because you know I Pro
20198s like do these amazing stats where it's
20200s like some of these teams took so much
20202s damage it's equal to all of this I would
20204s love to see the stats and the amount of
20205s damage that was dished out as we can
20207s have a look at one of those stats that
20209s is not set in stone is definitely prone
20211s to change but for some of these players
20212s they don't want it to change and one of
20214s those players in particular is this guy
20216s right here A's mik currently leading the
20219s pack but
20220s like we said we don't know until that
20223s last game finally wraps that last Zone
20226s finally collapses and as a result
20228s there's got to be so many Nerfs so much
20231s pressure on the line for every single
20232s one of these players crucially I will
20234s say the stat that we just looked at by
20236s the way ladies and gentlemen was top
20237s kills and eliminations and if you were
20239s unaware there is a separate trophy to be
20242s won here at the jaob for the top MVP and
20247s the state that we have AOW might in
20251s right now with 48 eliminations the
20253s second closest being 28 eliminations I
20257s don't think anybody is in a position to
20259s be matically possible yeah there's no
20261s way for anybody to be able to take that
20264s mvp away from him so no matter what A's
20266s Mike has already secured himself the MVP
20269s trophy and I'm going to tell you right
20271s now I'm not going to spoil what it is
20272s chat but we have seen a glimpse of this
20275s year's MVP trophy and let me tell you it
20277s is a shiny shiny piece
20281s and for Mike to be on his wall as we
20283s take a look there it is one last
20285s time that's the one he really wants and
20287s again if he is able to come out on top
20289s it's going to be the threepiece it will
20291s be the spring split followed by the
20293s summer split and the J Cup Championship
20297s he will be the only player in nraa
20300s history so walk away yeah yeah we've
20303s never had any one particular either
20305s player in solos or team in trios that
20308s has been able to put together in the
20310s same year both championships of mvpl and
20314s Jacob that is absolutely insane but now
20318s we're going to get to see that advantage
20320s that you talked about when we were
20321s headed in to the second half of the day
20323s Frost of us having started out is now
20326s going to be in the first phase will get
20329s the ability to pick his hero first of
20332s all and it's going to be so interesting
20333s to see what he decides to do with that
20338s here we go we're going to see the triple
20340s being locked ACR oh E's p is bringing it
20343s back t g ladies and gentlemen coming to
20347s the stage in phase one pick he did say
20350s that if he felt like he had a good game
20354s on his first Target he would double pick
20356s and the man is true to his word as A's
20359s mik playing for sustain playing for
20363s survivability going to be running that
20365s Zing GG Shar with the ult we've got two
20368s testers now coming through from J teams
20370s and O and and zel no surprises there
20374s this is a pick and hero that Z has been
20377s very comfortable with all the way
20378s through Jacob and that means teada is
20381s potentially there for two but he doesn't
20385s pick it instead we get a wuen we get a
20388s wuen ladies and gentlemen coming in from
20391s wangang andna Matari being locked in by
20395s drg zaka we did g it going to be crazy
20398s we we said we don't know what's going to
20399s happen
20400s we don't know who's going to walk away
20401s with the trophy some weird stuff is
20404s going to happen and that is exactly what
20407s happens and here's the thing it's game
20408s number six these players have no reason
20410s to hold anything back this is where we
20413s see the strategies that they've been
20414s holding on to the entire run of Jacob
20417s this is where we see the strategies they
20419s held on to for the entirety of
20421s pre-finals because they knew there was
20423s enough down time there was a whole week
20425s between pre-finals and today for coaches
20428s to be able to counter stess
20430s I I love this game six ladies and
20433s gentlemen it's getting ready to go down
20435s right now we're about to Crown our job
20438s solo Champion we've got wuen in the
20441s building we've got Matari in the
20443s building we've got tarachi in the
20445s building we've got a stadium full of
20448s some of the most incredible fans in the
20450s building as we get ready to take it home
20453s let me see that wooden V2 let me see
20456s that wooden V2 so you can hit confirm
20458s into to weapon swap I know you've got it
20460s in you I really want to see
20462s it I am so excited run because these
20466s players they're not going to know about
20468s these pcks it's so exciting we're going
20470s to see all the isit is Wang
20474s xcg Wen
20478s V2 be looking for that swaper it's yeah
20481s it is indeed going to be quite literally
20482s the swaper of the ultimate into the
20484s swaper of the weapon load out I I love
20487s it ladies and gentlemen this is going to
20489s be something special if you've never
20491s seen it on the pro stage you're able to
20494s bait out the gold F of your opponent you
20496s hit him with the V2 swaer Rooney into
20499s the hit confirm the follow up with
20501s something like a staff with the weapon
20503s swap into a great sword and you send
20505s somebody packing this is going to be so
20508s exciting especially if he decides to
20509s take it into the realm of Yang where you
20511s don't have to worry about the terrain
20513s goofing over any of the conversion after
20516s that hit confirmation all of these
20519s players coming in the surprise strategy
20521s is now fully revealed the aces up the
20524s sleeves now fully played out on the
20526s table all we have to play out now run is
20529s the last game of the day where are these
20532s players going to be dropping who's going
20534s to be able to get their hands on those
20535s fireflies A's Mike with that Zing
20538s playing as conservatively and far away
20541s from all of these other players as
20543s possible crucially he is not dropping to
20546s try and scrap over fireflies he is
20548s dropping where he knows no player is
20550s going to be because no fireflies are
20552s around yeah and look at this gifted by
20555s the nraa gods with some loot right off
20558s the back immediately Blue Shield Blue
20560s long sword this is exactly where Mike
20563s wants to be unfortunately it's T225
20566s coming in and is looking to make sure
20568s Mike has a bad day here Mike going to be
20571s off to a good start into the fight
20572s though but T25 going to find the Carol
20573s into the grapple re jugle here Mike no
20576s place to go the pistol shot followup the
20578s V sorry F1 being invested here by Mike
20581s Mike able to find the armor swap the
20582s Parry coming through but he's not going
20584s to be able to find the followup T25
20585s coming in with the jump Parry cancel
20587s into A's Mike Mike looking for the blue
20589s off the back of the katana will not find
20591s it he's going to go in find that armor

20620s the soul alar like R has said by trying
20622s to play conservatively and as safely as
20624s possible he put himself right into the
20625s Crosshair of danger the spider coming in
20628s looking to try and find that conversion
20630s into the upperup with the katana to swap
20631s into something like the DU blades
20633s forcing the shuang into utilizing that
20635s F2 a little bit earlier than the hard he
20636s wants there it is spider with the back
20638s pocket showing the has those dual blades
20640s Shang having to just keep himself out of
20642s this fight for as long as possible seven
20644s more seconds and the F2 is going to be
20645s cycling back into cool down both of
20647s these players vying for the spot to be
20648s able to control all of the money there
20650s in and roll for those sword to Destiny
20652s the shooting is taking so much damage
20654s spider locking down the fight knowing
20656s that the hard is going to be low looking
20658s to disengage commits the Tamo ultimate
20660s shuang caught against the wall going to
20663s go into the windw into the Wisp has to
20666s go through the windw losing so much of
20667s this damina getting the scare SP

20673s pick the angle try and scare us away
20675s from Rules the dice doesn't manage to
20679s call what it's going to land on and as a
20682s result he's going to be able to live
20684s another day Mike now putting himself off
20686s of the Soul alter into celestra on that
20689s Zing will have the ultimate but it looks
20691s run like he has a bounty on his head
20695s someone is chasing this ZIP someone is
20697s not going to allow him to slip away
20699s quietly and play for that late game this
20701s is exactly what J team's action needs he
20704s needs Mike to be eliminated from this
20705s Lobby and he will be able to climb his
20709s way up if he can find a victory in this
20710s game tt25 in the exact same situation
20713s Chu Jang able to lock down drg's Akuma
20715s coming in with the reg grapple the
20717s terrain actually going to come through
20719s and cut him out at the feet here Akuma
20721s will live to fight another day just
20723s because we're going to see the teleport
20724s being invested by Matari Akuma going for
20726s the grapple to get away but chuang not
20728s willing to give up on this elimination
20730s is going to keep it the chase going
20732s chuang is still within spitting distance
20735s of taking it all here ladies and
20737s gentlemen he has to find as many
20739s eliminations as he can wbg spider coming
20741s in for the third party going to keep the
20743s pressure up onto drg zaka so will 5 21's
20746s unique coming in from behind and drg's
20749s Akuma continuing to utilize that fan
20751s movement here those scale rushes to get
20754s away the teleport coming through the
20755s retrace it looks like spider still on
20758s the heels of the going to allow Akuma to
20760s get away A's Mike caught out in the mix
20763s here this is not where Mike wants to be
20765s these players no he's the only zip in
20769s the lobby ladies and gentlemen that's
20770s going to make him a very very juicy
20773s Target going forward Mike needs to be
20776s very careful about showing his hand yeah
20778s but he put himself into celestra he
20780s knows even if he gets spotted because of
20782s the way that celestra is laid out for a
20784s z ping it is the perfect playground you
20787s lose sight of that zip for a singular
20790s second She's Gone With the Wind Shang
20792s might be gone with d Zuma finding the
20795s backstab the mat ultimate going to be
20797s coming for shuang slipping away into the
20799s Bings to be able to break out of that
20801s Matari potential follow up and yet again
20804s we're going to see celestra coming into
20806s play with just the amount of buildings
20809s the closeness of the space how easy
20811s these players with their movement press
20813s are able to convert into those scale
20815s rushes into those so clean
20817s disengagements which a love of time in
20819s fact last year in the J cup the
20822s disengagement actually really separated
20824s and decided the Victor and placements of
20827s those players higher up on the
20829s leaderboard and you can see that all of
20831s these players even when they're talking
20833s in interviews in terms of giving
20834s suggestions on what you should do when
20836s you're coming into NCO and wanting to
20837s improve they don't say learn your combos
20839s they don't say learn your hero matchups
20841s they say learn your movement because
20842s they understand how important it is not
20845s just to win the 1 V ones but to survive
20848s when someone El shows up in that
20850s isolated engagement as wangang now on
20853s that Wen utilizing those blades to be
20855s able to get a little bit of Shield reset
20857s as well as movement to put himself onto
20859s that rooftop having been chased by jdds
20862s shuang does have the V2 doesn't want to
20865s commit the ultimate swaps over to the
20866s Pula to be able to find that scale Rush
20868s as we hear the San Q realm of Yang soon
20870s to spawn on up I want that wo Chen to go
20873s for run I want it so badly oh my
20876s goodness as we come back to W uh wuen
20878s here on xg's wangang continuing to trade
20881s blows with jg's chuang nowhere near
20884s realm of Yang wangang wants to pick up
20886s this elimination he's got Chu Jang low
20888s he's into the white armor here he's
20890s going to go ahead and invest all three
20891s of those FS to get the armor back
20893s chujang going to be forced to use his f
20894s as well the followup coming in from Wang
20896s leang as chuang continues to take damage
20899s here Chu Jang going to feel forced to go
20901s back towards the edge of the Zone The
20902s Zone not quite going to fully collapse
20904s onto him here but he is continuing to be
20907s dogged down by xcg wangang in the
20909s background he's going to feel so forced
20912s that he has to use the ultimate he wants
20914s to try to position wangyang into the
20916s Zone but he's not going to get it here
20917s the slide going to be a little too slow
20919s for wangang to get the Escape here CH
20921s Jang might have found the weakness
20923s coming in here onto wangang wangang
20925s pushing back towards the Zone he goes
20926s for the swaer roone he misses the
20928s opportunity because the move coming in
20931s from the hottie is a little too much
20932s ladies and gentlemen wangang forced her
20934s back away here but chujang not able to
20936s get the read and find the follow up he's
20938s able to fight the R&B conversion off of
20940s the staff Chang forced to burn the F2
20943s yet again and these players will find
20944s the full reset as we head to our realm
20946s of Yang it's going to be drg's Akuma
20948s versus ug's pandan GG Shaw versus El's
20952s Frost ofus yeah take a look at the
20953s weapon load out real quick as well on
20955s wangang that is Staff into pord he is
20957s looking for that V2 conversion into the
20960s weapon swap as Wang leang is going to
20962s continue to keep this pressure up onto
20964s jdg shuang the blades coming on through
20966s one two attempted the uppercut forcing
20969s Hardy into utilizing that F2 as wangang
20972s not allowing jdd shuang right off
20975s Passage through cestra Shang the SC able
20978s to catch on to wangang overh holding on
20980s the focus to be able to carry himself
20981s out into the open for that wuan to be
20983s able to put his movement into a
20986s different building entirely and find the
20988s reset as it looks like zel is coming
20989s under Fire from JT's action the Tess
20992s ultimate connecting on to action the gel
20995s har caring through the V3 going to be
20997s popping on out and action finds the
20999s uppercut conversion into grapp a bom
21001s into R&B on the hirts both of these ters
21004s without that get out of jail free card
21006s but action a lot further away from it in
21009s comparison to zal who's going to be
21010s approaching that next throw out Tessa
21012s one of our heroes who only needs 55% of
21015s that ultimate to be able to throw it
21016s through El's frosters in the meantime
21018s will be able to pick up his win inside
21020s the realm of Yang one kill and surely
21023s Vilan bir MERS dog zakum going to be
21025s picking himself up Mystic might there we
21027s see the test being in vested to stop the
21029s third party from K 225 who has been
21031s stopped in his track has to interact
21034s with the soul alter but still manages
21036s after picking up the AR to pick up the
21038s kill onto Z and now he's looking for a
21041s second onto J team's action action with
21043s the R&B connecting on to T5 T5 with the
21046s par turning it around to the Tessa
21048s action and full disengagement utilizing
21050s the horizontal movement to put them into
21052s the trees and try and carry himself out
21054s of this fight as quickly as possible
21056s will have the ultimate 4% before he's
21059s able to throw it out again but he's able
21061s to put himself on top of ballista Tower
21063s and just move away before k25 is able to
21066s jump on top of him all of these Bings
21068s are KN action to be able to find that
21071s scale rush and keep himself out in the
21073s fight for as long as possible t five now
21074s holding in with that purple looking try
21076s and connect onto action as he drops down
21078s from that ceiling action just holding
21080s with the SC T5 going to utilize the Tom
21083s ultimate to isolate the fight and stop
21084s the test from disengaging fro in the
21086s whis looking to connect onto action
21088s who's in the middle T5 now going on the
21090s outside of the tort wall so the Tesla
21092s cannot Chase and take advantage comes
21094s back in with the staff finds the
21096s conversion to the gold T5 picks up
21098s another kill and not only that puts
21100s himself from F into
21102s thir oh my goodness T5 coming in a it's
21106s such a shame to see extion go out that
21109s way oh my goodness unique picking up GG
21111s shot but wbg spider immediately turning
21113s the fin around with a Parry back on to
21115s Unique ladies and gentlemen as we take a
21117s look here at the stats oh my goodness
21121s there's still a chance for k25 to win my
21125s connection are both out yeah T25 just
21128s needs a couple more points and he walks
21130s away with the
21131s trophy here we go ladies and gentlemen
21133s drg's auma coming through on to jdg Chu
21137s Jang Chu Jang trying to keep the game
21138s alive with a 3% chance to walk away the
21142s champion here it's still do he's going
21143s to end the ultimate early there
21145s maintaining a huge chunk of Rage 's
21147s Frost ofus look look to come in and keep
21150s the hunt up here this is going to be his
21152s second game on tahadi looking to hunt
21154s down Akuma chuang going to find the full
21157s reset and able to come in as we go back
21159s to the replays here wbg spider Mike put
21162s into the corner here this is where
21163s Mike's career could possibly be ended
21166s and it's by wvg spider his best friend
21169s griefing him out here Mike just trying
21172s to keep it alive here with the staff
21173s movement spider able to catch the
21174s uppercut and sends him out of the lobby
21178s if might does not walk away the
21180s championship you can bet there's going
21181s to be
21182s words there's definitely going to be
21184s words between those two as you said they
21186s are thick as thieves when it comes to
21188s their interactions T25 two kills just
21191s having to play for survival and late
21193s game at the moment all of these other
21196s players in solest the thing is for5 he's
21199s on
21200s 42.7 Mike is on 48.6 and JT's action
21204s 43.6 if he plays too conservatively
21206s impulsively he risks this Lobby being so
21209s aggressive that those potential kills
21212s those points that are necessary for him
21214s to overtake the players ahead of him are
21216s unfortunately reduced to numbers so low
21219s that he's mathematically not able to
21221s walk away with the trophy even if he
21223s picks up MVP as one of the last players
21226s surviving as we are going to see our
21228s second real of Yang starting to spawn on
21231s up Mystic might now available the
21234s million Birds might only available in
21235s the first iteration of those realms
21238s spider with the Banshee on his head
21240s going to be playing very wide away from
21243s all of the players around him all of
21246s these players just prioritizing that
21247s Survivor wanting to hold themselves in
21249s cestra for as long as possible and it
21252s means that that realm of Yang entrance
21254s directly sa of it is probably going to
21257s see a whole amount of players clustered
21260s around the entrance K C5 eeld Frost 521s
21265s unique all currently circling to try to
21267s get into that portal wbg spider also now
21270s deciding that he wants a piece of that
21272s pie 521 unique deciding to see okay
21275s maybe I'm going to go to a different
21276s part of the map maybe I'm going to play
21277s for survival a little bit longer as dog
21279s Akuma decides you know what four players
21281s sounds like a pretty nice number to
21282s contest and joins the frey as well no
21285s one really wanting however to commit
21287s anything until those portals spawn on up
21290s a lot of tumultous in the area those
21291s wisps could be so detrimental if someone
21294s gets caught out when they try and go
21296s through that
21297s Gateway 5 here really needs to find his
21300s way into the realm of Yang and he's
21301s going to ladies and gentlemen it's going
21303s to be drg zaka versus K's T225 he needs
21307s every single elimination that he can
21308s find on the board he had no choice but
21311s to come into this realm of Yang if he
21312s wants to walk away the champion ladies
21313s and gentlemen it's going to be Tami
21316s coming in looking to lock it down Akuma
21319s going to take the first hit here the fan
21321s lmb coming out Clips it for just a
21323s little more damage the jumping Parry
21324s from K 2225 the teleport coming in for
21327s Akuma looking for the R&B off of the van
21330s he will find it Akuma no place to go
21332s Akuma has yet to utilize the ultimate
21334s here but T225 has got the lock down the
21336s whisp going to be coming in he's able to
21338s get the repair and ladies and gentlemen
21340s dog Zuma goes down and K g225 comes out
21345s on top another kill picked up another
21349s Point converted wbd spider with the Uppa
21351s conversion onto prus with the nunchucks
21353s chasing after stalford also coming into
21355s play Frost ofus able to find the par
21357s spider having to place the F to be able
21359s to break away going thr the ultimate but
21361s Frost us continues to chase down and
21362s will be able to find the kill with that
21364s legendary damage from that spear but oh
21367s my goodness this Rune these kills as
21370s flashy as they are unfortunately in the
21372s face of the point differential between
21374s both roster and spider they do not
21377s matter they are not going to be able to
21379s close the distance and walk away with
21381s that trophy
21383s T25 is currently the player the only
21386s player I do believe who has an
21388s opportunity to be able to make and
21391s bridge that distance and walk away with
21394s that win with that Trophy this is a
21396s player who said when he was coming into
21398s the interviews he was not happy with his
21400s performance he knew that he could
21402s perform better he was not happy that he
21404s only just managed to break into jup
21406s especially after how dominant a hold he
21409s had with his debut last year this is a
21412s player who has had a year of experience
21414s learning about the players around him
21416s learning how to improve learning how to
21417s count learning how to play the macro
21420s this is a player who has jumped in one
21421s game from fourth to Second and now
21424s stands on the absolute edge of being
21427s able to walk away into that first spot
21429s so I I hate to disagree with you Moxy
21431s you know this but I've got to disagree
21433s with you about your point when it comes
21434s to wbg spider and eld's frostivus and
21437s these kills not really mattering for
21438s them because every position these
21440s players are able to climb up in this
21442s final game not only means more money it
21444s means more Prestige and especially when
21447s it comes to 's Frost ofis he is
21449s representing not just na but also sea he
21453s is a cross region representative the
21455s first cross region Champion for him to
21458s be able to climb up here from the bottom
21461s six into top six would be absolutely
21463s massive for him this is a fight going on
21465s that's know near T225 that's the worst
21468s thing that could possibly happen T225
21471s needs to be able to find these kills
21472s cannot allow anyone else to start
21474s walking away with wins in this Lobby he
21477s has to play aggressively he has to play
21479s proactively but Frost spider and Akuma
21483s are all currently in this area and T25
21486s is not on the map Akuma is about to go
21488s down and T5 is not here to be able to
21491s chime in and potentially snipe away that
21494s kill wbg spider continuing relentlessly
21497s to Hound onto dog zakum he has the Yang
21499s depletion he needs to be able to find
21500s this kill within the next two minutes of
21502s voice he's going to be knocked out of
21503s this Lobby and see his hopes of Jacob
21506s and any chance of being able to climb
21508s above Pand go down in flames around him
21512s as he's going to keep putting this
21514s pressure 1 minute and 56 seconds
21515s unfortunately for him this area is
21517s absolutely abysmal for these players to
21520s be able to lock down those isolated 1 V
21522s ones with the amount of terrain that is
21524s there for the scash k25 with that Mystic
21526s might tracking down jdd shuang looking
21529s to find another kill the scash on that
21531s fan coming on through Shang having to
21533s take cover behind that rock and heal up
21535s that blue armor K T5 trying to figure
21538s out whether or not it's worth sticking
21540s in this fight it's so far outside of
21543s everyone else's area that it's just not
21545s worth it yeah as we cut back here we're
21548s going to see drg zaka just getting Blitz
21551s through here by wbg spider trying to
21552s keep the game alive for himself here but
21555s is a soul Matari in the lobby it's going
21556s to be hard El's Frost of is looking to
21558s come in and snake the kill out from
21560s underneath wbg spider like we said every
21563s single elimination here matters so much
21565s for both of these players spider coming
21567s in he's able to find him on the edge of
21568s the ultimate he's able to find the rewi
21571s there it is ladies and gentlemen wbg
21573s spider will pick it up El's Frost is now
21575s looking to turn on and but T225
21577s crucially shows up and he needs to stay
21580s in the fight Moxy if he wants to be able
21582s to walk away the champion every single
21585s kill that goes away that he's not a part
21588s of is the championship slowly slipping
21591s away from him I mean you saw how
21593s desperate he got right he has a bow in
21594s the back pocket but he looks for the
21595s scale Rush entrance with the nonu which
21597s will do more damage because he wants to
21599s get that kill as quickly as possible
21601s before spider is able to take it away
21603s from him he has denied that kill but
21605s crucially he has been able to find where
21607s the rest of these players in the lobby
21609s are so if another fight breaks out he's
21612s going to be in the area to be able to
21615s play to come in and grab out some of
21618s those kills hiding the legendary Katana
21620s in his back pocket hiding one of those
21623s blue fans playing with that purple
21624s playing with the ability to come in with
21626s the R&B or lmb to convert either into a
21629s fast kill steel or space control as he
21633s takes a little bit too much damage k25
21635s note he is a tul a lot of these players
21638s around him are potentially going to be
21639s hard he looking to play when that zone
21642s collapses to come in with the ultimate
21643s to knock all of these players out of the
21645s way T225 he has enough kills currently
21648s that he just wants to make sure that he
21650s makes it to actually have that kill
21652s multiplier come properly into play and
21655s pick himself up as much points as
21657s possible he's also going to use that
21658s moris blessing to bait some of these
21660s players into taking those fights and one
21662s of those players is going to be shuang
21663s spider also showing on up who got the
21665s legendary armor with spider spider walks
21667s away K 225 picks the purple armor up the
21670s spider Left Behind Frost takes the kill
21672s though T5 denied and suddenly he has a
21675s take F against spider the are being
21678s invested to to lose the dream of Jacob
21681s he's going to go down potentially he has
21684s to SLI away no he gets picked upop by 5
21688s 21's unique I take it back wbg spider
21692s and A's Mike not about to have bad words
21694s anymore Moxy cuz spider may have griefed
21697s Mike out of the lobby ladies and
21699s gentlemen but spider comes in and says
21701s hey you know what you're my best friend
21703s I can't let it go down like that he
21705s picks up the elimination on the T225 I
21707s got to give it to T225 though this is a
21709s player so many people counted out and
21712s he's going to be walking away in second
21714s place Moxy A's mik ladies and gentl is
21718s going to be your Champion for this
21720s year's Jacob what a game well we said
21723s that we didn't know who was going to
21724s pick up the trophy until the Zone claps
21726s that is a little bit incorrect noce like
21728s you said all of these players left in
21729s the lobby unfortunately not going to be
21732s able to no matter how good they have
21734s after this not going to be able to close
21737s up that distance forus now just playing
21739s to show that Na and sea still have a
21742s place in the nraa Esports scene wbg
21744s spider taking a lot of damage going to
21746s backtrack over to that purple armor and
21747s pick pick it up for the reset three
21750s players left in the lobby Frost trying
21751s to turn onto spider pushes him into
21754s unique who's looking now to grief onto
21757s this tul seeing that he's incredibly
21759s going to stop any potential for that
21761s full reset from coming through spider
21763s wisely kiding the fight over towards
21765s Temple to be able to come in with the
21766s skill rushes and drop the tul ultimate
21768s directly onto 5 to1 unique allowing him
21770s to just break away from the fight long
21772s enough to get a little bit more of a
21774s reset and 51 unique in fact decides to
21776s back on off entire Frost ofus in the
21779s meanwhile going to be backing up onto
21780s the high ground waiting to see whether
21782s or not these players commit to the fight
21784s and if he can apply some more of that
21786s pressure with the bow Frost ofus
21789s incredibly adapt with this weapon in
21791s fact in all of his highlights a lot of
21793s the time we do see even at things like
21795s the base of ballista Tower frost ofus on
21797s The High Ground coming in with those bow
21800s head shots to be able to pick up those
21802s kills out of danger yeah absolutely
21804s these three players here looking to play
21806s out to the very end here there is money
21809s on the line unique only needs three more
21812s points to move up into that 10th Place
21814s position and that's crucially the final
21817s money position Moxy so he is still
21820s fighting for it wbg spider and elg Frost
21822s ofus also again we talked about how
21824s important every single elimination is
21826s for these guys so this is going to go to
21828s the very final seconds between them and
21831s again there's a lot on the line for all
21833s three of these players again 521 is
21834s unique he is very very close to walking
21837s away with a big chunk of change here in
21840s J cup we also of course have wbg spider
21843s who has not had the performance he's
21845s wanted at all today so this is his last
21847s opportunity to really showcase that
21850s spider uh mentality and come through and
21853s have a dominating performance in a game
21855s here in J cup and again for El's Frost
21859s ofis he is a cross region representative
21861s for both sea for North America as well
21865s and this game means so much to him if
21868s you've ever sat down and talked with
21870s El's Frost ofis about how passionate he
21873s is about this game he's not just
21876s goodlooking he's not just a pretty face
21878s this man really cares about the state of
21880s nraa he is so passionate about how much
21883s he enjoys this game so for him every
21887s single fight he's going to be taking
21889s here in these next couple of moments
21890s means so much yeah I mean it's also his
21893s first Jacob too so we have so much still
21896s to see from him he's an incredibly young
21898s Talent he's still sort of figuring out
21901s his position inside the J cup and also
21904s all of these other regions coming
21905s through with all of that separate
21907s identities Frost has done so much just
21911s seeing how he interacts with all of the
21912s other players inside the practice room
21915s like it was an absolute joy to see
21916s players from mbpl would be sitting down
21918s they would be zero Banning Frost ofus
21920s one of them would lose instantly another
21922s mvpl player would just hop into that
21924s same scene be like my I want to figure
21926s out how to beat this guy everyone came
21928s together to try and figure out how to
21930s take this guy down and if that isn't a
21933s statement to how strong a player Frost
21935s ofus is I don't know what is well not
21938s only is it a statement to how strong a
21939s player Frost ofus is this is this is
21941s something we've noticed being here this
21943s year this year is very special not only
21945s because it's the first land as well but
21948s this is really the first time we've seen
21950s players from all the regions opening up
21952s sharing Tech with one another excited to
21955s play with each other and and that's such
21958s a huge thing it's a marvelous milestone
21961s for us here at nraa to see these regions
21964s really coming together and just looking
21967s to compete as the best they possibly can
21969s I mean speaking about the best you just
21971s saw Mike on screen 5 21's unique is the
21973s one currently in danger has to utilize
21977s that Hardy F2 into ultimate going to
21980s just use every single movement ability
21982s in the book to get himself onto The High
21984s Ground and out of the way of both Frost
21987s ofus and spider spider coming in with
21989s both shots on the right side knowing
21991s that the Hardy has run off to there the
21993s second that this ultimate drops on out
21995s these two players are going to be on
21997s this Hardy and they're not going to let
21999s him go 5 to1 unique unfortunately not
22002s even able to close up the distance onto
22003s one of them so that he can put them into
22005s a place that they take so much damage
22007s that he buys himself a disengagement
22010s just charging up with that staff
22012s threatening the overh hold on the
22013s vertical now we're going to see these
22015s players start to pressure him knowing
22017s that the Z is about to push unique out
22019s of that position of The High Ground onto
22020s the low ground where he's going to be a
22021s lot more vulnerable storm making it a
22024s little bit harder for them to fully find
22025s the commitment and in fact it looks like
22027s yeah they've been a little bit impatient
22029s wbd spiders pushed into the end of that
22032s Zone by Frost ofus with the fan has to
22034s utilize the scash off of The Cliffs to
22036s put himself back onto the high ground
22037s and as a result Frost and spider take a
22040s One V one they allow 521 unique the full
22043s reset oh my goodness ladies and
22045s gentlemen it's going to come down 5 21's
22046s unique coming in try try to deny wbg
22049s spider the reset he's looking for who
22051s Frost of his feeling forced to invest
22053s the F2 just to get away from the fight
22055s wbg spider looking for the R&B off of
22057s the fan will find it onto Frost but
22059s unique coming in will find the R&B
22061s charged off of the staff into the
22063s conversion up into the air now Frost
22065s trying to turn it over onto 5 21's
22067s unique but it is going to be frost being
22068s caught out by both the ultimate the
22070s whiffs coming in to lock him down Frost
22072s will be able to find the F2 again looks
22074s for the reset as Spider continues to be
22076s pressured by 521 unique spider going in
22080s for the uppercut gets picked up and set
22082s into the Zone ladies and gentlemen 521
22084s unique will find the points that he
22086s needs to move into 10th place it's going
22088s to be 's frost ofous versus 5 21's
22091s unique it's hottie versus hotti Frost
22093s ofus with the ultimate coming in trying
22095s to take control of this fight while he
22097s has the opportunity he knocks unique
22099s back into the Zone he's playing
22100s Gatekeepers lady and gentlemen Frost
22102s ofis is on five eliminations he goes to
22105s six and he takes his first MVP of the

22554s definitely a spotlight on a o W's mik
22557s for the first ever time we have one
22560s player as not just the mvpl season one
22563s Champion not just MPL season 2 Champion
22567s but also the jcup champion as well Mike
22570s said that he was coming at the end of
22572s season 2 when he picked up that trophy
22575s he said that he was going to walk away
22577s with it and that's exactly what he did
22579s his heartbreak unfortunately for Kaya's
22582s T225 who came so close it's lovely to
22586s see the rerie between all of these
22588s players it's lovely to see that Mike as
22590s well credited spider from being able to
22593s get that kill onto T225 before T225 was
22596s able to continue in that Lobby and
22599s overtake Mike's position you know there
22601s there there's something that the the
22603s some of the players divulg to us that it
22606s is T225 when other players who are
22608s breaking down they didn't reach their
22611s goals who is constantly no matter who it
22613s is is going up he's giving them hugs
22616s he's sing them so it's kind of a somber
22619s situation to cut back to T225 breaking
22623s down in tears but for A's Mike the
22626s sportsmanship in this game is unlike any
22629s other you don't see this in other
22632s Esports the champion coming in to
22635s console his rival the man who almost
22638s took it all away from him to let him
22640s know it's okay that he played his
22642s absolute heart out and my heart goes out
22645s to T225 and it goes out to A's Mike too
22648s I know how important it is for Mike to
22650s be here to take the backtack dubs in the
22652s nvpl and to walk away the champion this
22655s year in the J cup because he couldn't
22657s compete last year so for him to be here
22660s and to finally make it happen
22662s congratulations to you AOW Mike you
22665s deserve it no
22667s spider oh the man of the myth the legend
22671s spider does bleed ladies and gentlemen
22674s but it's all in good fun here what a day
22679s Moxy I to everybody watching at home
22682s from twitch I wish I could describe to
22684s you what it's like to be standing where
22687s I'm standing with this incredible stage
22689s behind me with this incredible audience
22692s watching us live here from the stadium
22694s in Chang duu it's been just such a
22699s wonderful day Moxy out of this world out
22701s of this world we we've left planet Earth
22704s we're we're on Morris aisle the cheers
22707s from the crowd the sound of every single
22711s person just not just cheering for their
22713s favorite I think that's honestly what
22715s what made it the the most happy feeling
22718s for me the fact that everyone chears
22721s every single time every single player
22724s who comes in and does something special
22727s and incredible whever or not it's coming
22730s in with the grapple juggle extensions
22731s wherever it's coming in and turning a
22733s fight around when you're on critical
22735s Health every every single time there has
22737s been a moment that has looked like it's
22740s going one way and then swung the other
22742s this crowd have been on their feet they
22746s have been roaring they have been
22747s cheering they have been waving their
22749s light sticks and you can be waving well
22752s maybe something that you're able to find
22753s in the raffle all you have to do is
22756s enter the raffle right now all you have
22758s to do is send in chat congratulations
22761s AOW Mike bring the heat and I mean it's
22765s congratulations from everyone at the
22766s stadium congratulations from us
22767s congratulations from everyone at home
22770s for a very well earned Victory as we've
22773s talked about right Mike coming into game
22775s number six he wasn't playing for
22777s aggression he wasn't playing for kills
22778s he was playing for survivability he knew
22780s with all of the kills that he had
22782s already picked up for the rest of the
22783s day with all of the games that he'd
22785s already had with all of the points he'
22787s picked up from both the pre-finals
22789s previously and the ones that he was able
22791s to find in the first half of this day
22794s all he had to do was play consistent L
22797s survival and this is something that
22799s we've seen from him time and time again
22800s it's the reason why he is not just one
22803s season defending champion of mvpl but
22805s two because he always pops off in the
22807s first half finds those kills guarantees
22809s that he's been able to walk away with
22810s the MVPs and then when we head into the
22812s second stage where everyone's playing
22813s Super aggressively everyone plays so
22816s aggressively they cannibalize each
22817s other's chances Mike in the meantime is
22819s like I've got all of my kills needed I
22821s just have to play to live Mike in the
22823s meantime is uh
22825s 123,00 th000 damage deep today in melee
22830s weapons alone with a total of 41 kills
22833s making him that mvp we talked about most
22836s of that damage coming in from the fan
22839s here you go the stats for your world
22841s champion for the 2023 J cup it's going
22844s to be AOW Mike with a total of 41 kills
22847s an average kills of 3.4 per game and a
22850s total damage
22852s of
22854s 160,000 oh it's a message as well isn't
22857s it to every single player wanting to
22860s compete against this guy you think
22862s you've seen me at my strongest and I'm
22864s just going to keep coming back with more
22866s insane plays that you're not expecting
22869s and I think that's what I love so much
22870s about nraa how it's constantly shifting
22873s whether it's a new hero coming in
22874s wherever or not it's a new weapon coming
22876s in speaking of which we've got the new
22878s weapon coming in I can't wait to see how
22881s that is going to influence things as we
22882s head into 2024 as we can have a look at
22885s all of these amazing players they may
22887s not have made it into the top five but
22889s just making it here not just through the
22892s pre-finals not just through the
22893s qualifications but through all of their
22895s regions is a huge credit unto themselves
22899s as is every single player on this
22901s current leaderboard obviously Mike is
22904s going to be that number one he's going
22906s to be feeling incredibly happy with
22907s himself and it's easy to be happy with
22909s yourself if you win right if you don't
22912s if you come so close to touching that
22914s Trophy and unfortunately just for ever
22917s so slightly short that has to be the
22919s most heartbreaking feeling in the world
22921s and I hope with all of my being if T5
22925s takes anything out of this series it's
22928s that he has people out here who
22931s understand what an amazing player he can
22932s be cuz every single time we see him in
22934s the interview he says I don't feel like
22936s anyone cheers for me and we see you T25
22939s we know that you're capable we know that
22941s you're a strong player we know that you
22942s are almost the world champion but today
22945s no no one can take the trophy no one can
22947s take the title away from A's Mike yeah
22951s Mike congratulations yet again you have
22954s put in the time you've put in the effort
22957s and it shows you were a demon before
22960s your break before you weren't able to
22963s compete in the J Cup last year for 2022
22967s but we see the growth we see how much
22970s effort you've been putting into this
22972s game you came in your season one it was
22975s TI you were able to take the
22977s championship for season one of the nvpl
22980s but when you came back in that season 2
22982s you were a different mik you were an
22984s even better version of yourself and you
22987s brought the Heat and you left no
22989s questions that you were going to be the
22991s champion of season 2 and here on the
22994s stage you have done the same you came
22996s out during those pre-final stages and
22999s you set the pace for every single player
23002s here Mike what an incredible performance
23005s coming in from you
23006s what an incredible game and what an
23009s incredible competitor I mean he's such
23011s an incredible player right he truly is
23014s the world's best not just in terms of
23015s the mechanics not just in terms of
23017s understanding you know the layout of a
23019s fight the spacing that we keep talking
23020s about being so important he's able to as
23023s Raven has brought up in the past map out
23025s all of these sort of locations that he
23027s runs past of okay there's a Vitalia here
23030s there's a re Shield here there's an
23031s armor race that I can potentially go
23033s through here so when he takes some with
23034s those fights and he knows that he need
23036s to maybe make a little bit of a
23037s disengagement or a little bit of a
23038s detour he's immediately able to divert
23040s the fight back to that location where
23043s he's able to find all of those benefits
23045s and he does it just consistently so
23048s often every single time we see him every
23049s single time he loses some of that armor
23051s you blink and 5 seconds later he's
23053s running around maybe it's not blue maybe
23055s it's not purple but it's still gray and
23058s when you're running around in a
23059s sustained meta with things like the
23061s Hardy the tul and the Z ping all being
23063s able to find those resets in the blink
23065s of an eye having that gray armor reset
23067s is a lot of the time enough to be able
23069s to guarantee that you continue to remain
23072s in this lobby as we can guarantee that
23074s Jacob is going to be continuing into
23077s tomorrow we may have decided and
23079s determined who the best solos player in
23082s the world is but trios that's another
23085s matter entirely cuz we have two teams
23087s currently vying for that title both te
23091s and xcg an absolute ston throw of points
23094s in between them I know you're a big xcg
23097s Fanboy I'm a big te fan girl and that's
23101s definitely going to be something that
23102s we'll talk about tomorrow but
23104s unfortunately you'll have to wait for
23105s tomorrow for that one to come up on your
23107s screens well luckily Moxy tomorrow it's
23109s going to be you and me bringing them in
23111s for their first three games that's right
23113s ladies and gentlemen me and Moxy will be
23114s right here back behind the Caster desk
23116s bringing you the first three games of
23118s trios tomorrow and you are not going to
23120s want to miss all of the action cuz like
23122s Moxy said te and xcg vying for that
23126s first place position and there's some
23128s other teams that we need to keep our
23130s eyes on as well because I'm telling you
23133s there's some dark horses in the running
23136s who are coming for xcg and team te I
23139s mean you know as well there's going to
23140s be strategies people have holding things
23143s back we know we started solos we got to
23145s see we got to see Len V2 we got to see
23148s Matari come back in it has been a hot
23150s minute since we got to see mataran solos
23153s but Jacob is just the treat that keeps
23155s on giving but I mean those Trio matchups
23158s we know how smart the coaches can be we
23160s know how smart the teams can be we know
23162s in the past that these teams have
23163s innovated and engineered entire
23165s compositions onto themselves to push
23168s these other teams around them outside of
23169s the comfort zone into figuring out how
23171s does this composition play and burning
23174s so much of their time to be able to
23176s figure the strategies out in fact it's
23177s something that J team have done it's
23178s something that te have done it's
23180s something that we've seen because of the
23181s Tessa coming in to replace that Yodo
23183s it's something that sea have started
23185s taking taking advantage of with teams
23186s like bve and vng GC coming in with
23189s Cannonball and ice pick which I can't
23191s wait to see how these trio teams have
23193s taken that time that week between
23195s pre-finals and now to be able to figure
23197s out and pilot even better oh I am so
23201s excited you have no idea when we came
23203s into the group stages and pre-finals
23205s there were a lot of teams that even said
23208s they understand how strong Cannonball
23211s and ice pick have the potential to be
23213s but they haven't found the Comfort level
23215s with it and this comes with not just a
23218s single region defining the meta when
23220s every region brings something new to the
23222s table when they come together here at
23224s jcup at the world championship that is
23226s what happens teams need time to develop
23229s to adjust to those new strategies and
23231s like you said crucially we have had a
23233s week's time between those pre-final
23236s stages and now and you can bet these
23238s teams have been putting that time to
23241s work when it comes to these new
23243s strategies and these new team comps and
23244s we might even see something new coming
23247s out as well that we haven't seen before
23250s I'm looking at you team drg I understand
23253s where you've been coming from the
23254s unpredictability the consistency coming
23256s back in in the group stages and the
23258s pre-finals nobody knows what to expect
23260s from you and I'm excited to see what
23262s those boys bring but of course everybody
23266s is going to be looking to come in and
23267s bring something new to the table Moxy I
23269s mean we've already seen the melting P of
23271s all of these different regions benefit
23272s each other right we've talked about it
23274s so often CN had discounted Hardy we
23277s could have been seeing an entirely
23279s different outcome on that stage if Edie
23282s hadn't come in and said like hey this
23283s guy is actually really strong and here's
23285s how you play him and this is what we're
23287s talking about right this is one of the
23289s huge benefits of Jacob whoever lifts
23291s that trophy is a winner but in the long
23294s run every nraa player after every single
23296s Jacob wins as well because they get so
23299s much more information to be able to
23301s figure out what's more optimal what
23303s works incredibly well what they're going
23305s to be able able to take forward and push
23307s this game into being in an even better
23309s State than it already is which is
23311s incredible because this game is already
23313s incredible like it's it's insane to
23316s think that we're going to be seeing even
23317s more compositions even more weapons but
23319s unfortunately it's not going to be right
23321s now we are going to have to be ending
23324s this stream we have decided that A's
23326s Mike is the best player in all of nraa
23329s currently maybe that will change next
23331s year we'll have to wait and see for him
23333s to pick up his next title def defense as
23336s I've been got Moxy I've been joined by
23338s my wonderful friend who quite literally
23340s is here on my left side now this has
23343s been the ring keeper we've been the nraa
