3456s looking locked in this is the first year
3460s I was telling you Seb that with the
3462s first time we don't have a like sincere
3465s favorite now everyone's still looking at
3467s spider and Mike to take this you still
3469s see their confidence you still see the
3471s promo we have such interesting narrative
3474s 25 finally breaking the curse up and
3477s coming Stars first
3480s star Wang shenan even AIS coming back to
3485s form this is probably the most exciting
3489s nvpl solo finals I have witnessed in
3492s three years I cannot wait who is going
3496s to win it now it's hard for me to
3498s predict who is going to win but I just I
3500s can never I'm a betting man I can never
3502s go
3503s against
3505s Mike for
3556s ladies and gentlemen welcome back to the
3558s nraa blade Point pro league I'm your
3560s host Caster Seb and I'm joined alongside
3562s the master of analytics My Man Raven plz
3566s we on the scene for the Summers split
3569s solo finals of 2024 it's been a long
3571s time coming and I'm absolutely pumped to
3573s be here Raven what's going on talk to us
3577s oh my God I'm so excited I've been
3579s waiting the entire summer for this
3583s moment I mean the bi-weekly finals
3586s there's a lot of hype to it but it all
3588s really leads to this the pre-finals
3590s still six rounds I really love the new
3594s match point system that we're going to
3595s be witnessing today I wish it was that
3597s way just every single time cuz the level
3599s of hype it brings is just so much better
3602s and for the first time in all my time in
3605s the Rocka I would have to say that solos
3608s just feels a little bit more exciting
3610s than trios to
3613s me yeah solos is definitely a it's a
3619s very different Beast you know we we do
3621s have the trios which is a lot more chaos
3624s but the fights that you get to see in
3626s Solo the pure skill in these One V ones
3629s especially in our realm of yangs
3630s especially when we get to see these
3632s early game fights the tech is Mastered
3635s by every single one of these players and
3637s ladies and gentlemen something that you
3639s guys can master from your own homes is
3641s linking your naraka account to your
3643s Twitch account so you guys can receive
3645s some of the lovely free gifts by just
3647s watching the stream twitch shops are
3649s enabled ladies and gentlemen make sure
3651s you guys pick up your free
3654s stuff man the solos Seb it's just it's
3658s out of this world how good the players
3660s are this season with the new patch
3663s everything being toned down and tweak I
3665s would say we're in a really really good
3667s position as far as nakaka no weapon
3669s really stands out fist are still really
3671s strong fan is really strong but I would
3673s say in most instances every weapon is
3676s usable every character is usable now
3679s going over the rules for today this
3684s Grand finals Seb it's GNA be like a lot
3687s of the weekly finals except this is for
3689s all the marbles we're going to be having
3692s those eight rounds that were accustomed
3694s to you're going to only be able to play
3696s two
3697s characters but we're going to a match
3701s point system which I absolutely
3704s absolutely love Ze that instead of you
3707s just playing very very slow very very
3709s safe all these players go for everything
3712s off spawn is way more exciting the mid
3714s game is more exciting end game is more
3716s exciting
3717s just because we took we took away
3719s placement points complet no more
3721s placement multipliers still placement
3723s points but it's all about getting that
3725s first place and a ton of kills and I
3728s would say one of the biggest changes
3730s that change solos forever out to even
3733s change TRS forever it's just taking out
3735s everyone's name we've seen so many
3737s players come to form because now they
3740s just focused on their own game for a
3742s long time spider stood in Mike's Shadow
3744s he couldn't break playing under Mike but
3747s now you see him ice cold doing super
3750s super well you see all of the the middle
3753s of the pack rising up shenyuan uh AIS
3758s burst star all of these come guys come
3760s to form and you see them consistently
3764s beat the top three players Mike spider
3766s and 225 we finally got to see 225 break
3769s the curse too years my man has just been
3772s playing placing second place the champ a
3775s championship round has has always eluded
3777s him so will he be able to continue that
3780s that's definitely one of the Cinderella
3781s stories that would be super hyped if 225
3784s was be able to take with us today yeah
3787s seeing T225 win that bi-weekly four I
3790s had the pleasure of casting that
3791s alongside you as well and it was it was
3795s an amazing day to watch and if we get to
3798s see them come and get to see tt25 Come
3802s Away with the entire bi-weekly finals it
3806s would be something history in the making
3809s very very exciting stuff that's going to
3812s be going on here ladies and gentlemen as
3814s we have the solo Grand finals today
3816s trios are going to be tomorrow and then
3818s tune in next week for our Mainland
3820s qualifier then we've got a week break
3822s from nrao which is a little bit odd
3824s since we've been so go go go but on the
3827s 26th the very
3830s first day of the J Cup group stage is
3833s going to be starting and then we're
3835s going to be having our finals ensuing
3836s after
3838s that but ladies and gentlemen we're
3840s going to be focusing here on which teams
3842s are going to be playing and which
3844s players it's going to be K's tt25 wbg
3847s spider ug's Mike ewg's aano drg's fun
3851s asc's XY jl's AIS JD G's chuang fbx
3856s verse ss1 paste x1's wufong and t e star
3861s these are the last 12 players in the
3866s nvpl summer split we had our last chance
3869s qualifier everybody has had the chance
3871s to make their Mark and now these players
3874s are going to be going head-to-head for
3877s eight games keep in mind ladies and
3879s gentlemen this is a finals format so
3881s just like every other bi-weekly final
3883s that we've had there is a match point if
3887s you get over 26 points the game after
3891s that if you are the MVP you will become
3894s the winner so there is a chance we could
3896s finish this off after four games someone
3900s could get 26 points in three games and
3902s MVP the fourth and it would be all over
3906s taking a look really quickly as well at
3908s our prize pool the uh Grand Champion is
3912s going to be getting a 140,000 R&B with
3915s the second place going 880,000 a third
3918s place 50,000 uh fourth place 24,000
3922s fifth place is going to be 15 sixth is
3924s going to be 12 7th 11 11 8 is going to
3928s be 10,000 9 9,000 10th 8,000 11 7.5 and
3933s then 7,000 or 12th Place and this is
3936s taking a look as well at some of our
3939s Caster predictions for the CN side of
3943s our casters and I feel like if they're
3946s showing us this I think Raven we've got
3948s to make some predictions before the game
3951s starts uh you already got my prediction
3954s a lot of those casters are going with
3956s Mike I can't go against the goat every
3959s time you you go against Mike you just
3962s you end up being proven wrong time and
3965s time again he has looked mortal for the
3968s first time in a long time but with the
3971s heart of a champion it's always
3973s interesting to see how a champion reacts
3975s to it he admitted that he was he was
3977s feeling off that he was feeling
3978s uncomfortable and he had to evolve his
3981s game we saw something very similar
3983s happen to spider when Mike came back to
3985s the league on another champion himself
3987s it's always going to be Mike and spider
3989s as the favorite but I got to say that
3991s because of the names not being there I
3995s feel like an
3996s upset can easily happen Mike has been
4000s the most dominant solo player for the
4002s longest time but in this current meta
4005s he's not able to impose his will as much
4008s as he was before now we saw it even in
4010s the interview he said he was gatekeeping
4013s everyone even within the league says
4015s that Mike is probably one of the biggest
4017s Gatekeepers everyone else kind of shares
4019s information kind of uh practices each
4022s other will Zero ban with each other but
4023s Mike they all say is a little bit of a
4026s gatekeeper so I got to say my man H
4028s might have the edge going into this
4030s still yeah there's definitely a chance
4034s that uh that Mike is going to be
4037s dropping on top but it is still going to
4039s be everyone's game uh we're not going to
4042s be 100% sure what is going to happen and
4046s and that's why we play the games ladies
4047s and gentlemen taking a look at our hero
4048s recommendations here XY is going to be
4051s in first place for the average points of
4054s 3.4 with his hero of choice
4058s Limu and then second place we're going
4061s to see arono picking the hottie and uh
4064s we are going to take a look here really
4065s quickly at some of the behind the scenes
4068s stuff that we're seeing going on at the
4071s mvpl arena right now so we are going to
4073s be taking a look at that they will be
4076s having a great time over there all of
4079s the audience is going to be getting
4081s ready to celebrate and cheer on their
4084s teams believe they do have a crowd today
4086s watching them play uh and the energy in
4089s there has got to be ecstatic you were
4092s there last year at Worlds you know how
4094s crazy the energy gets in the room when
4097s there's a when there's a group of
4100s fans yeah that the arena is absolutely
4104s amazing now it's it's not as big as one
4106s in Chang do but the the back stage you
4108s see where all that augmented reality
4110s happens it's just it looks super super
4115s awesome when you're there it's all
4117s inspiring and they actually adjusted it
4119s quite a bit this year I like the new
4121s cleaner look now looking at all these
4126s competitors this is like there's just
4128s it's a different feeling when it's Grand
4131s finals you can see how locked in every
4135s everyone everyone is and my man spider
4139s if you look back I think out of all the
4141s players who've changed so much it's
4145s definitely spider one the glasses and
4148s two he just he almost looks bored just
4153s how ice cold my man looks when he's
4156s playing now
4159s Wong pre-finals champ see him my man has
4164s been Relentless just constantly Furious
4167s his game play just so much pressure even
4172s on the strongest players like a lot of
4174s his strategy you just see him go through
4177s the lobby go through Yang twice goes
4179s back to back and a lot of players
4181s actually are cautious lately not going
4184s to Second Yang but not
4188s wuang yeah it's interesting uh lots of
4191s the times we do see some of these
4192s players opting to not go for that second
4194s Yang even though they have increased the
4197s time that it takes for your yang
4200s depletion to come to fruition and for
4202s you to be completely eliminated from the
4204s game if you don't get a kill but that
4206s being said there are still a lot of
4208s risks these players are adapting and
4210s learning how to kite out these Yang
4212s depletion players for a lot longer and
4214s often times we do see the two players
4216s who lose that second Yang either go
4218s head-to-head and one of them becomes
4221s Victorious or they get third partied
4223s when they when they're going into their
4225s fights trying to get the the elimination
4226s they often times lose the bloom and do
4229s not end up coming away with very much so
4232s ladies and gentlemen we're getting into
4234s game one here very shortly as these
4236s players are about to lock in their first
4238s hero selection and as you can see here
4241s Mike and spider locked in fighting for
4244s the crown taking a look here we are
4245s going to see our first hero selections
4248s first round is going to go to AIS and
4250s Fong second round to p and tt25 third to
4253s XY and star fourth to Orono and shuang
4256s Fifth versus spider and the last round
4258s is going to be going to Mike and
4260s wuang being in that last round on pedor
4264s for Mike isn't too much of a problem for
4266s him he usually goes with the Z ping pick
4269s and given this meta it's not a super
4273s highly favored pick so odds are he will
4275s be getting to play his comfort pick on
4277s the pror map we're going to get to see
4279s these picks in just a second here and
4283s I'm excited to see we are on the newest
4285s pack patch so uh we do have Syra
4287s available I don't believe we're going to
4289s be getting to see much of it in these
4292s solo plays especially in the grand
4293s finals you've got so much on the line
4295s you're not going to try and throw out a
4297s hero that you're not 100% comfortable
4299s with taking a look at the first locks
4301s it's going to be fun and AIS on the
4304s hottie Liam for tt25 and past nobody
4307s varying from what is top tier in The
4310s Meta right now they are hungry for the
4312s win it looks like star is going to be
4314s locking in the vda and we have seen vda
4316s moving up in the meta slots XY is going
4319s to be on the kylin given the amount of
4321s Nerfs that kylin has had he is a little
4323s bit more of a dangerous her today to
4325s play but on that V1 variation of the alt
4329s he could still pull something crazy out
4331s we did see a Matari and another vda
4334s coming out Banning vda from our
4337s picks very interesting
4340s that hottie is actually picked first
4343s something that me and try hard were
4345s talking about was we felt like after the
4348s big hotti nurse that he fell out of a
4350s lot of strength
4352s now hotti is such a strong character his
4355s kit just allows him to play almost every
4359s single situation at a very high level
4362s now he was definitely really really
4364s strong on release but I feel like you
4367s can't really nerve him to the point
4369s where he's not going to be at least
4371s solid and it looks like the pros agree
4375s at least on puror poror nighttime and
4379s just the terrain in general at first
4382s everyone kind of didn't know how they
4384s felt how they wanted to play it but we'
4386s see it even in trios that hottie was
4389s mainly played on pdor because of the
4392s terrain situations for endgame his
4395s flying ability his gold F allows him to
4398s stay alive in this very very contested
4400s end game that we see in this modern
4402s nraa now I am a little bit surprised
4405s even over vda just CU When valda was
4408s changed she her strength was absolutely
4411s ridiculous the the 3 seconds just the
4414s hit points her ability to play Endgame
4416s was just super super powerful but in the
4419s past the reason why she wasn't really
4421s plays as much is that she was just focus
4424s fire in an end game
4426s and for the most for the most part when
4429s she was buffed everyone forgot that now
4431s with the adjustments instead of focusing
4433s hottie everyone shipped it back to vda
4435s so I'm guessing now hottie has a little
4438s bit better of a place within the current
4441s meta I was I was saying that because
4444s this Lobby set is filled with so many
4446s characters now it's not that one
4448s character meta that we were so used to
4449s for the longest time in araka where you
4452s would see basically three characters if
4454s not just one per map now we see such a
4457s variety cuz you're forced to at least be
4460s able to play seven characters making
4462s solos I would say harder than trios now
4465s and what an exciting time to see the
4468s meta shift right before worlds it always
4470s happens I Seb Pros keep that keep
4473s everything close to the chest all the
4475s way until the end and right here we're
4478s going to see the best nraa solos you can
4481s possibly see in the world yeah this is
4484s definitely the best of the best before
4486s we go to Worlds jumping in taking a look
4489s at some of our spawn points it looks
4490s like the majority of our players are
4491s going to be spawning in and around
4493s Arcadia trying to go for that red red
4496s Soul Jade this is going to be an
4497s interesting drop with so many people
4499s trying to fight for it we don't know
4501s who's going to be able to come out on
4503s top with that red jade down on the lower
4506s sides of the map we are seeing ug's Mike
4509s and drg's Fong spawning on a gold Zone
4512s pretty close to uh Imperium on that
4516s Eastern or most western side of the map
4519s by that gold Zone here we're kicking
4521s things off following Mike and Fong Fong
4524s is going to have a weapon here but Mike
4526s with the slaps could be victorious with
4528s this it looks like Fong has been brought
4531s very very low verse going to try and go
4533s and pick up that elimination Kong has
4535s found himself a weapon we are going to
4537s see the pryo go over to verse with the
4540s jumping lmb finishing off bong for the
4545s first elimination of the game we going
4547s to get to take a look in that bottom
4549s corner you are going to get to see the
4550s audience ewg Zano here getting
4552s dangerously low we are going to see the
4554s one two coming out from the Matari Dash
4557s confirming the elimination putting
4558s spider up at one as
4561s well off spawn one of the most critical
4565s parts and with zipping on Mike we were
4569s saying Seb even though Mike was in the
4575s last phase being able to go zipping he's
4577s one of the first players to go do it but
4579s first verse
4581s versus haste on the Matari
4586s doesn't look like they they really want
4587s to contest everyone's playing this very
4588s very close first game everyone wants to
4590s play nice and slow but not spider and
4593s AIS spider looking for the prair not
4595s going to be able to get it fading out
4596s needs to bring this back has his Al up
4598s is going to get put in to the Nuno
4602s defense doesn't release it AIS with the
4604s p sword going to fade out try to get the
4607s Parry he is going to get the teleport
4610s Perry onto spider with the sap and AIS
4614s coming into play
4615s gets the off the upset off spawn on
4619s spider oh my goodness I was say except
4622s it's tough now it's so tough you don't
4625s know who you're fighting against and
4626s anyone can go down everyone is so good
4629s right now Pace with the cross onto verse
4632s looking for the scale Rush not able to
4634s get it verse is going to be fading out
4636s trying to get an armor reset but Mike
4639s here's the Parry his bloodthirsty to
4643s pick up this kill off spawn for gets the
4645s white armor reset Mike cooking sitting
4649s on the outside just looking for a focus
4651s attack but verse not going to give it to
4654s him not going to make it easy but pace
4655s is going to find the uppercut combo now
4657s first triple tap to is going to get
4659s another white armor reset but he's in a
4661s top position he's not going to be able
4663s to get away pace is going to pop the Lio
4664s and secure the kill and now we're going
4666s to get Mike versus Pace off spawn who
4670s can secure this
4671s POI taking a look at paced burning the
4675s last charge of his ultimate and now Mike
4677s on Full Assault we are going to see the
4679s F ability coming out from Mike is going
4681s to end up getting caught into the focus
4683s attack grapple bump extension into
4686s another Focus attack from past past
4688s doing a very good job at taking away so
4690s much of Mike's Health right now is going
4692s to try and go for a bit of a scale Rush
4693s here we're seeing Mike popping that
4694s ultimate to try and regain some of that
4696s HP is lost into this fight which is
4698s going to give him a clear advantage over
4701s pace is Pace now no Shield or very
4704s little Shield we see Mike able to regain
4706s so much of this health back that pace is
4708s taken away and priority is going to be
4710s given over to Mike into the 211 the
4712s focus attack coming out off of the
4714s weapon bag swap we are going to see Mike
4718s Keeping On The Chase he wants to get
4720s paced out of here right now the gray
4721s armor swap is going to come into play
4723s though as we do see the overh hold come
4725s through as well the one two is going to
4726s come out trying to go for it again F
4728s ability invested as well might going to
4730s be getting even more HP back ultimate
4733s has been canceled and he's already back
4734s gaining
4735s and you see here past also very close to
4738s getting his ultimate back here as we are
4739s going to see very very low in HP but
4742s Mike is one wrong move away from getting
4745s caught in a carousel combo here and past
4748s is going to be able to get himself up
4749s into a bit of heals we're are going to
4751s see that F ability getting invested for
4752s both players and now oh my goodness the
4754s PR's going to come through but the
4756s terrain is going to mess up the combo
4757s now Mike is going to end up getting
4759s toothpick here into the ultimate and
4761s Pace bringing it back around just in
4764s time time for verse to come through with
4766s the musket shot we're going to see past
4768s getting himself that reset and Mike back
4770s to the soul
4772s alar huge upset we see both Mike and
4775s spider fall off spawn man what a big
4780s clutch up for Pace he has to be feeling
4782s the first round man that's where the
4783s Jitters are all these guys have to be
4785s feeling
4786s it traditionally every time we see the
4789s first round in in an a round series
4791s everyone is pacing this is not a Sprint
4794s this is a marathon you want to get your
4796s game going you see everyone play very
4798s very straightforward trying to warm up
4801s now usually we'll see half the lobby
4803s heat up while the other Lobby kind of
4807s cool off but I got to say SE your first
4810s round definitely sets up with the
4812s momentum starting out good can never
4815s really hurts anyone now we're seeing 225
4818s open to the north I wonder who took the
4821s red jade over here the red jade gives
4823s you that thousand hit points mortal to
4826s going into the first realm of Yang gives
4828s you such a huge Edge to get that first
4830s win and the snowball that you get off
4833s that first Yang is so big allows you to
4836s stay in Tempo stay in form and allows
4840s you to stay aggressive it's very easy to
4843s let the game get away from you if you
4845s have a bad off spawn very hard to pull
4848s it back to let yourself go we saw we
4851s heard even from the competitors that uh
4853s I believe it was Star saying that he
4857s felt like he didn't really open up to
4859s the fourth bi-weekly finals so hopefully
4861s you can see all these guys show us their
4863s best game today I've always been a big
4865s fan of spiders Matari now everyone
4868s usually thinks of Fong when they think
4869s of uh the premier Matari but I've seen
4873s spider take his gameplay on his Matari
4876s he's come super super close from
4878s stealing away finals from Mike but first
4881s we're going to see one of the upand
4882s comers one of the Curse Breakers 225 he
4885s does have the ticket can he get in a
4887s realm of Yang can he start off the day
4889s strong and win hit the first one of the
4891s day and it's looking like he has lost
4893s his Yang pass right here getting knocked
4896s down from his F ability and then other
4898s pressures coming through from spider it
4900s looks like AIS is going to be able to
4903s capture that Yang portal all for himself
4905s as Spider and tt25 decide to converge on
4908s a different location it looks like
4909s spider is Out For Blood a little bit
4911s here on the
4913s matui looks like he has lost tg2 going
4916s to end up just going for a bit of a
4918s different play here as asc's XY
4922s has jumped into this cave area he
4926s unlocked the cave with the key has found
4928s xuang in this area as well is going to
4931s try and get the elimination onto him
4934s following Chase with the purple P sword
4937s in hand has been able to deal so much
4938s damage forcing out the ultimate from
4941s chuang chuang going to be forced to pop
4943s one of his F charges XY just going to go
4945s for a bit of a heal we do see fong in
4947s the area as well could try and make
4949s something happen it looks like X1 Wu
4952s Fong going to be fighting against te
4954s star in the first realm we do see purple
4956s armor and a purple set of nunchucks on
4959s the side of wufong on the Justina
4962s believe this is our lone Justina in the
4964s game we do have the vaa coming up from T
4968s star F already invested early here as
4970s we're seeing drg's fun already
4971s completely eliminated as well huge crazy
4975s plays coming out on the outside of the
4976s Yang we are going to see now wuang going
4979s to try and Chase with the nunchuk star
4981s is going for a bit of a play on the
4983s pillars but is going to get parried
4985s really quickly here we are going to see
4986s him lose most of his armor almost all of
4989s his HP ultimate's available for both of
4991s them star going to bring that alt out
4992s now here going to see the toothpick
4994s coming through doesn't connect on the
4996s toothpick but wuang is going to get hit
4998s by that first spear we're going to see
5000s the ultimate coming out now from the
5001s Justina bring it back around he did have
5003s star Frozen is just going to try and
5005s wait out the time for this ultimate here
5007s is very close to done misses that third
5009s dash off on the wall but it's one HP and
5011s a dream for star and one lmb and there
5016s you have it ladies and gentlemen x1's
5018s wufong winning the first realm of Yang
5020s as we do have JL and ss1 then ewg might
5024s be getting themselves a free real of
5026s Yang
5027s here what clean clean play coming out
5032s from wuang now I I didn't really know
5034s this but try pointed out to me that Wu's
5036s game plan is just what what's been
5038s working for him is he just runs through
5041s everyone in the realm of Yang definitely
5044s really really interesting take on his
5046s neutral play and you see him pick his
5048s opponent apart now on the outside we're
5050s back to replay with spider shenan Fong
5053s bong going for a ride going to get fried
5055s on the nice grapple Kip combo spider
5058s making it look easy quick pickoff in the
5061s 1 V one V1 and now spider setting up for
5063s end game and this is something we been
5065s seeing a lot more more players using
5068s that pole sword for these end games it's
5071s just so so good for holding space and
5075s quickly sneaking kills that the R&B
5078s comes out out of nowhere your stone form
5081s denies a lot of light attack Shenanigans
5084s and you can charge forever plus the
5087s Parry is a single hit punish so you
5090s don't have to worry about any of these
5091s combo breaks taking you away unless
5093s you've run into Liam
5095s but finally Liam has faded out on the
5098s meta a little bit where he's not as
5101s powerful as he used to be still one of
5103s those really really good picks and
5104s definitely one of the Comfort picks of
5105s most of the players we're not seeing
5107s that same dominance as we've seen before
5110s he's definitely been tuned down a lot
5112s more now we're going to get orano versus
5115s Pace speaking of Liam Pace on the Liam
5118s going to force out the
5120s bottle already using one of his charges
5123s Ral has two more Spears to his name
5124s going to get the followup not letting
5126s Pace get away the jumping lmb is going
5129s to deny the retreat and arano just
5132s cleaning up quickly after himself
5135s picking up that kill easily yeah Rano
5138s not having a contestant in the realm of
5140s Yang to fight getting himself a free
5142s Vermilion bird buff he's ready for some
5145s action he was ready to fight in the Yang
5146s ended up getting it for free you've got
5148s yourself some gold armor you've got a
5150s buff you're ready to go take a fight and
5152s he did a textbook job of eliminating SS
5155s one's Pace there P Pace on three
5157s eliminations and also had that
5159s vermilion's bird Mite so we are it is
5161s not going to be the last we're going to
5162s see of pace this game spider doing a
5165s little bit of some kite work here te
5168s star was a little bit trying to go for
5170s this Chase 1 minute and 50 seconds left
5172s on his Yang depletion so we are going to
5174s see him play very aggressive to try and
5176s come away with this elimination jl's AIS
5178s now spots out chuang and fighting him
5182s Atari is going to be pretty difficult
5185s when you're trying to go for that Yang
5187s depletion cure as uh the kiing that
5190s Matari has especially with a dagger in
5192s this area the amount of buildings that
5193s you have to weave and duck out
5195s of it's not the most ideal situation for
5199s AIS to be in especially since he's only
5200s got a minute and 57 seconds left to get
5202s an elimination he does spot out a couple
5204s more players here he needs a kill fast
5207s he's going to wait for the Yang pass to
5209s drop and end up going for a kill as
5211s could be disguising the fact that he's
5213s so desperate for an elimination right
5215s now we are going to see Star now on the
5217s jumping lmbs fighting against burst he
5219s sees the blue armor wants to come away
5221s with this elimination scale Rush coming
5222s through spider as well jumping into the
5224s mix Mike with the purple full sword in
5227s hand is going to wrench some health away
5228s from te star wants to find verse again
5231s is going to see the Matari go for the
5234s wrong one there finds the purple armor
5236s on spider and decides to back off
5237s quickly verse is the target of the lobby
5240s right now but now star getting turned
5242s onto by both of these players and it
5243s looks like Mike going to try and make
5245s something happen onto Star as well with
5247s only 35 seconds left this is a very dire
5249s situation for
5250s star yeah 30 seconds we still have ult
5254s up but can we really secure a kill can
5256s we go through someone's ability star
5258s just it looks like he he has accepted
5260s the feat he just wants to deny this kill
5262s going into Zone doesn't want to get
5263s chipped before he gets out wants to get
5265s out of combat right now but verse doing
5266s a really good job keeping eyes on Star
5269s wants that last little hit doesn't want
5270s to get this kill taken away from him
5273s from the zone but star going to get that
5276s nice wide armor reset he is going to be
5279s able to go deep into the zone now this
5280s is one of the earlier zones so Shadow
5283s crush is not going to be doing enough
5284s and star does a good job little bit of a
5287s small victory but he's able to deny the
5290s kill to his opponents now we've seen
5292s this over and over Seb that it does come
5295s down to one or two points so every
5299s little inch does mean a lot in these in
5304s the grand finals it is so hard to get
5306s placement it is so hard just to get a
5309s single kill and we're seeing so much
5312s effort for these kills cheg going deep
5315s into Zone looking for AIS but AIS doing
5317s a good job getting out of line of sight
5319s and he is also going to deny the kill we
5322s are going to get a classic wufong versus
5324s shenyuan these guys face off in Yang so
5328s much Dro down coming in with the p sword
5330s sitting on top of the pillar Wu setting
5332s up with the Hiller scale Rush both these
5335s guys playing a game of chicken Hillar
5337s scale rushes have become out of control
5342s in
5344s 2024 uh Kelly just really changed the
5347s game for everyone shenyuan with the p
5349s sword looking for the scale Rush going
5351s to release the 1.2 right into wufong
5355s wufong has to recover has to find some
5358s tiip back but genuine doing a good job
5360s of holding a lead and maintaining
5361s getting a nice amount of poke damage
5364s from the P sword and now going crazy
5367s with the kylen W's trying to get a
5369s freeze trying to slow down the pressure
5371s but he's falling back so far he will
5374s fall now Pace versus arano already down
5376s to half Health orano with his Tim's
5378s going to get Pac into a spear arano with
5380s the focus that but the
5382s Liam B and teleport flash he's going to
5384s be able to take down Oran but Oran
5387s fighting back a lot of hit points be
5388s working with r's going to be able to pop
5390s the gold up but the jumping lmb is going
5393s to close it out Pace knock going to
5394s relieve the pressure and he is going to
5396s win that second realm of Yang so I'm
5400s saying Seb not really who you would
5403s expect to be dominating the dueling
5406s scene normally we're accustomed to Mike
5407s and spider going to be a very very
5411s highly contested day anyone I think can
5414s win today Seb yeah it's it's interesting
5417s to see that the way that that Yang
5419s played out it was very it looked like it
5423s was coming up for the vda but the
5425s outplay from that Liam ultimate the
5428s Strategic placement of every single one
5431s of his charges those two ultimate
5433s charges came in so clutch for him he was
5436s able to get that siphon give himself a
5438s bit of an edge off of the first one and
5440s the second one securing the elimination
5442s for him in that R of G beautiful
5445s textbook use of Liam ss1 paste is going
5448s to be picking himself up his fourth
5450s elimination I believe and asc's XY is
5453s second I believe as we are going to see
5455s arano back to the soul alter here one
5457s elimination and 4 minutes and 20 seconds
5460s left to collect himself a soul Bloom
5463s shouldn't be too difficult but given the
5466s vastness of this map we do still have
5468s nine players remaining into this game so
5470s wolong and arano do have a decent shot
5473s at coming away with this but like we
5474s have seen time and time
5476s again with AIS and star earlier on in
5480s the first R of it is increasingly
5483s difficult to get these eliminations the
5484s amount of King that you're able to do an
5486s Imperium the amount of just how big the
5490s map is as a whole it is very difficult
5494s to Come Away with any sort of
5495s elimination arano now trying to converge
5497s onto Imperium does see I believe that is
5500s a challenger icon going to try and see
5502s if he can make something happen ss1
5504s paste in the area as well we are going
5506s to see spider converging onto a Rano and
5509s there's a bunch of players in this area
5511s so it could get ugly really fast seeing
5513s XY with with the merciless havoc in hand
5517s golden staff as well this is going to be
5520s a lot of damage and a lot of space he's
5522s able to take with this combo setup that
5525s he's got going on see spider as well XY
5529s just getting fully aggressive as well
5531s ready to take any fight that comes his
5534s way merciless Havoc I feel like it's in
5537s the past it's been one of those JS that
5539s just gets you focus fired in any game
5540s but we'll have to see CU spe well
5542s merciless Havoc super super for securing
5545s those end game Buffs we still have
5546s yangle to deal with though W 2 minutes
5549s 30 seconds needs to secure his Yang
5551s depletion it looks like spider knows
5554s been here before recognizes that one of
5557s these players possibly going be on Yang
5559s depletion doesn't want to get Focus fire
5561s in the lobby and he is on Matari one of
5564s the best characters get kiing right now
5565s has the dagger out going to be instant
5567s scale Rush scale rushing everywhere we
5569s just
5570s see just everyone in the lobby look
5574s looking for spider right now he does a
5577s good job of Still Still extending this
5580s just going in a big circle using the
5582s wall well scale rushing over and over
5584s now he is going to be going on the
5585s outside trying to go get into a bush but
5587s wuang is going to find verse lacking
5589s verse going for a ride right now is
5591s going to get his armor stri from and now
5593s wuang looking to hold down ver is going
5596s to invest his old triple Dash is going
5597s to be coming out and now verse down to
5600s his last leg is going to pop his
5601s ultimate he's going to be dashing away
5602s wuang doesn't want to get LOB right now
5604s he burned all of his ultimate to secure
5607s that kill he does only have a minute and
5610s 30 can he cure his Yang depletion or
5613s will he be falling Seb it is a difficult
5617s to tell he just has lost his ultimate so
5620s it's going to be very difficult for him
5621s to try and make this happen but ewg
5623s orano is going to try and fully invest
5626s himself into one of these fights very
5628s quickly he needs to do the exact same
5630s thing but Come Away with an elimination
5633s wuang wasn't able to Come Away With The
5634s Kill ver still being the Target no
5637s ultimate available for him so he could
5638s be in a lot of trouble if the rest of
5639s the lobby starts to converge and
5641s everybody's here and when I say
5643s everybody I mean every single player in
5646s this 5 m radius everyone decided to pull
5648s up in a matter of seconds they saw one
5650s player start to go low everyone smell
5652s the blood in the water they're ready for
5654s this fight Wong I believe he saw vers
5657s take to the skies he is going to opt to
5658s go down to the bottom side see if he can
5661s spot out another player 27% on his
5664s ultimate he won't get it back in the
5665s next 30 seconds it could be time for him
5668s to try and call it and go to the Zone
5672s we're going to see
5673s him see if he can catch a straggler on a
5676s third party but it looks to be
5678s unsuccessful for him here as he's going
5679s to make his way into the Zone without
5681s being spotted by any of his opponents so
5684s he does not give up this kill here going
5686s to see him onto these outskirts holding
5688s to the outside nobody has noticed him
5690s and arano is going to be in the same
5692s boat here as we do see PA
5694s jumping in getting super aggressive in
5696s this closer to the end game don't know
5698s if he knows 100% that that is the player
5701s that is on Yang depletion we do know
5703s that there is only one VA left in the
5706s lobby so with basic deduction he could
5708s make a assumption that this would be our
5711s last gang depletion player and he has
5714s done a lot of Chip damage within the
5716s next 5 seconds he could be awarded this
5717s elimination 2 1 Z he is going to go out
5722s to the Yang depa no elimination awarded
5725s to paste he was not able to get enough
5727s damage in time and as's XY did claim
5730s that Spirit well here so we see him in
5731s Ultimate going to be Focus firing all of
5733s that ultimate damage onto Mike Mike
5735s going to be forced to pop that Zing alt
5738s here could be in a bit of trouble asc's
5741s XY just delivering so much pain no
5743s ultimate available anymore but he does
5745s still have that white tiger prowess
5747s looming over Mike's head oh Mike just
5751s tanking all of that damage from kylin
5753s now we we've seen the big Nerfs going
5755s into kyin and I'm very surprised that
5756s shiman is going to go with kylin most of
5760s the pros have been moving away from
5762s kylin just CU he doesn't do as much
5765s damage as he used to but it looks like
5767s Shan's going to make the adjustment and
5768s go to that V1 you see that constant
5770s pressure onto Mike but I've been saying
5773s it for a while just from running into
5775s zipping myself that character once it
5778s gets that melee resistance going is an
5780s absolute unit you cannot take her down
5784s she just tanks an entire ultimate even
5787s when kylin's uh ultimate just did so
5791s much damage she still was able to just
5794s tank all of it with most of the zipping
5796s running V1 F1 nowadays the F1 just adds
5800s that plus healing the v1's healing was
5803s increased she's just so tanking in this
5805s situation we've seen Mike do a really
5808s really good job on the zipping and it
5811s really frees up his pick and his
5813s strategy for later down the line that's
5815s one of the things that a lot of these
5816s players have to consider when you play
5819s eight rounds from what has uh what the
5825s pros have been deciding and been
5826s accustomed to is you play seven
5829s different characters and you save that
5830s double pick for the last round just so
5833s you guarantee your comfort pick in order
5835s to win CU you there is no guarantee of
5837s which characters that may be banned so
5839s we'll have to see how it plays out but
5842s the zipping pick on M he's done really
5844s really well in the past but the problem
5846s is SE everyone knows in the lobby who is
5849s on zipping it's always Mike so a lot of
5852s these guys definitely have a it out for
5854s Mike 225s sick to get sick of getting
5856s second place spider wants to take down
5859s his rival so he's putting a pretty big
5862s flag in the ground that this is me will
5864s he establish himself today as that scary
5867s fighter that everyone used to fear or
5870s will they just Target him and make sure
5873s that he's not able to win this end game
5874s now vda is slightly better than zipping
5877s for these heos but we're going to get
5878s this nice heavy building end game it's
5881s really anyone's game in this situation
5883s so much movement available to all these
5885s guys anyone can really take this
5887s situation we'll have to see who ends up
5890s overextending and ends up getting poked
5892s out and caught off guard but I'm going
5895s to have to say that shenu want's looking
5898s really really good with the meress but
5901s it's tough we've seen a lot more t eyes
5904s than normal SE normally you in these end
5908s games it's really really decisive but
5910s everyone has taken their heal off
5912s situation to the absolute maximum so
5915s we're seeing a lot more ties that no
5917s one's getting this multiplier we even
5919s seen I would say some characters and
5921s some players making sure that it does go
5924s to the tie and no one who's having a pop
5926s off game gets a crazy crazy big lead
5929s everyone everyone's points ends up being
5932s relatively the same well have to see
5934s who's going to win this but we have
5937s spider Mike 225 the top three players
5940s everyone kind of looks at who do you
5942s think is going to take this first game
5944s s looking based on pure Heroes we've got
5950s three Matari left in the lobby we've got
5953s one Liam two Liams one kylin and one
5959s ZIP
5961s zings it's going to be the most
5963s favorable for the heal off so I think
5965s the zp will get focused very fast
5968s meaning that Mike is probably going to
5970s be one of the first of these players to
5971s go out given that tt25 has paced as a
5975s buffer when it gets into this closing
5978s Circle and spider has two verse and
5982s shuang both on the
5984s Matari to help and assist not
5989s necessarily helping but preventing these
5992s other heroes from taking the major in
5994s the lobby is something that we've seen
5996s happen a lot we we see happen time and
5999s time again and the one-off heroes like
6001s as's XY on the kylin is going to be a
6005s little bit more difficult for him to
6007s gain very much footing the immortality
6010s proc could be vital for him with this
6013s final Circle coming out but it really
6015s depends on who's going to start to get
6017s focused we've only got 2 minutes left in
6018s the game Circle 6 is almost finished
6021s closing onto Circle 7 as we speak spider
6023s are going to be the first one to take a
6024s bit of damage going for a bit of a heal
6027s here these zps or these Matari not
6031s dealing any damage to each other right
6033s away but we are going to see huge Cloud
6035s Weaver going to come out from Pace XY
6037s taking a lot of damage going to go hide
6038s in the pot but taking a lot of musket
6040s damage here one HP now very very low in
6044s health immortality has already been
6046s proed he's had to use that timate we are
6048s going to see tt25 just come away jump
6052s lmb and steal the kill away we are going
6055s to see him come and claim that bloom as
6057s well trying to take Mike out here Mike
6059s ultimate early as well we're seeing the
6062s ultimates come out from these oneoff
6063s Heroes pretty fast might try and go for
6065s a bit of an ALT cancel here I believe
6067s that's what he's done is going to throw
6069s out he does have that merciless Havoc
6071s now as asc's XY has been eliminated tt25
6075s going to go for a bit of a heal here him
6076s and Pace just holding space the cloud
6079s Weaver is available for Pace but he does
6082s only have those gray fish dis blade so
6084s it's going to be not a lot of damage but
6086s a lot of space taking for these players
6088s we still do have those three Matari
6090s looming on the top and Mike no ultimate
6093s available going to try and gain some
6094s rage back here but just keeping space
6096s with that merciless as long as
6098s possible now going into this last 35
6102s seconds Mike wisely yoinking that
6104s merciless Havoc he's been a to guarantee
6106s his last little bit but he was for he
6108s had his old for forc out already and
6111s choang and spider already taken to the
6113s sky spider on the Matari going as high
6115s as he Poss can using the grapple but M
6116s be able to control the low ground he's
6118s going to go in the P right now he is
6119s going to get this last little bit
6121s staying in the middle of the Zone he's
6122s not going to be able to have the heal
6123s 225 is going to pop that leam mode gets
6125s a little bit of siphon off but Mike's
6127s going to get his ultim up right at the
6128s end but it's not going to matter 225 is
6129s going to use the cannon he's going to
6130s get a kill right now CH going to get a
6131s kill as well onto PA getting a nice last
6134s hit but vers is going to be Last Man
6135s Standing on the Matari he is going to
6137s secure the first round win but it looks
6140s like 225 is going to be securing that
6142s mvp
6144s wow what a crazy End Circle we saw
6147s coming out there it looks like K's T225
6151s going to be that second last player
6153s eliminated is not going to get himself
6155s that multiplier but first with only one
6158s elimination on the board for himself
6161s isn't going to get that mvp the first
6164s MVP going to K's T225 in our solo Grand
6168s finals what a play what a great way to
6171s sustain coming out here we did see the
6173s Liams winning as uh it looked like it
6176s was all going to come up Matari you
6179s didn't see the Matari start to attack
6180s each other and that was their downfall
6182s they were in the skies taking away their
6185s HP as the players down on the bottom
6188s were holding it out till the very last
6190s second we did see Mike go out first in
6193s that scrum as all of these players
6194s wanting to converge on that zp to not
6197s allow the heal off at the end to be very
6201s one-sided and wow what a game tg2 five
6204s very phenomenal play all throughout I
6206s believe he picked up one or two kills
6207s coming into that End Circle see him with
6211s two or three kills near the end there
6213s very very phenomenal performance and
6215s paced very good honorable mention as
6217s well had four eliminations going into
6219s that final Circle could have taken it
6221s away needed to survive a little bit
6223s longer unfortunate for him we're going
6225s to see K's tt25 victorious in game
6228s number one you see it on 25's face just
6231s like his reaction he he's almost a that
6234s he took the first round it's just first
6237s round man it's always starts with the
6238s first round but first ladies and
6241s gentlemen we're going to be having our
6242s first question of the day for your
6245s summer split random gifts who won game
6249s one today was it a ewg's aono b j L's
6253s AIS s c o 's Mike or d k L's
6260s T225 first one first question of the day
6263s oh a nice little layup an easy one Seb
6266s we just were going over this this should
6268s be an easy one for you guys Chad just
6270s put your answer down when you are asked
6273s and hopefully you'll be able to get your
6274s first prize today make sure to tune in
6277s get your prizes today free stuff there's
6280s nothing better than free sa and speaking
6283s of free that first game I'm not going to
6286s lie
6286s T225 his face said it all he was like
6289s was it really that free my man's looking
6292s really really chill really really good
6295s and for the first time I don't think
6297s we've ever seen him start when one of
6299s these really really high press
6300s tournaments with a dub will this be very
6303s different will he be able to carry this
6304s momentum he usually takes a little bit
6307s to warm up and he has a crazy game
6309s somewhere in the middle and he just
6311s flies up back to the top while everyone
6313s else is slowing down yeah we're going to
6315s get to take a look at the scoreboard
6317s here four eliminations for a total of a
6320s six game score giving him two ranking
6322s points
6324s on top of those four kill points past is
6326s going to be in second with those four
6329s kill points as well with a 5.5 total
6332s game score chuang picking up two
6333s eliminations in that final Circle to get
6335s him up to three with a 4.5 in third
6339s place verse is going to take fourth with
6341s 4.2 that multiplier and those ranking
6344s points doing huge numbers for him but
6347s sadly didn't get enough kills to give
6348s himself that
6350s mvp and we are going to take a look now
6352s at the overall standings this is
6354s including the prepost points into the
6356s game so a little bit of changes here
6358s bong and star with zero points on the
6361s day so far only their pre-post points
6363s putting them at 12th and 11th AIS is
6365s going to be in 10th XY in ninth we are
6368s going to take a look now at the top of
6369s the scoreboard wuang still on top with a
6371s 9.3 the 1.5 game not enough to set him
6375s back from his monster prepose Point
6376s score verse is going to be in second
6378s with that 4.2 chuang in third with the
6381s 4.5 coming in at 8.5 total T225 at 8.5
6385s as well tied with chuang spider and then
6388s Mike are going to be taking fifth and
6391s sixth place and now we are going to be
6393s taking a look at the Thunder robot
6396s highlights for game number
6398s one all spawn we saw a with the big
6401s upset over spider Pace with Mike have
6405s the nice clutch up versus Mike Mike a
6408s little bit too hungry for the kill play
6412s a little bit
6414s of a tight situation right here burning
6416s all of his dashes right now but he wants
6417s to keep up the pressure star doesn't
6419s have nice clean play coming out for him
6422s keeping up the pressure keeping up the
6425s chase down arano same thing onto Pace
6428s just suffocating his opponent not
6430s letting him get away we're sh youan with
6432s the PO sword just making quick work of
6435s Wang he got the first hit and he just
6437s never let up he just kept beating Wang
6441s down Pace versus a
6444s super super close we got this fight
6446s right at the halfway point but pace is
6448s going to keep it up with those light
6449s attacks able to secure the K we see 225
6451s with the cheeky just around the corner
6453s he waits for the last possible second to
6455s get that full heal off and goes for the
6457s jump the one commit to now we see the
6459s low ground verse making quick work
6462s finding his way through all the cannon
6464s shots coming out and this is that end
6466s game I was talking about everyone plays
6468s the low ground so well right now that
6470s Mike just got shredded even though he
6472s had the V1 on the zipping up it did not
6474s matter all the cannon shots were coming
6476s out everyone spaced out perfectly and
6477s just shot towards that last little bit
6480s of Zone safety and Mike instantly got
6483s exploded 225 is going to be your MVP 10
6486s times my man is looking locked in today
6490s and I got to say besides Mike a crazy
6494s Cinderella Story would be 225 taking
6496s this win making upcoming worlds way more
6501s interesting are we going to see the 2024
6504s be the time of T225 I'm not going to lie
6507s Seb he's looking pretty good his body
6509s language showed a lot of confidence and
6511s I don't I don't recall a time I've ever
6514s seen 225 start out with momentum will he
6517s snowball this and secure this tourament
6519s we'll have to see yeah tt25 has always
6522s been a player who's been a little bit
6524s slow to heat up but as soon as he gets
6526s on fire he's hot and he will continue
6528s that odd streak until the end of the
6531s day with tg2 five getting first place in
6536s game number one having an MVP in game
6537s one for tt25 could be extremely
6540s dangerous for our other competitors here
6542s CU like I just said if once he turns it
6544s on it doesn't go off until the end of
6547s the day so having it at game one which
6549s we've never seen before this could be
6551s disaster for some of these contestants
6553s that are trying to put a lot of points
6554s up onto the board like Mike and spider
6556s who are usually huge thre threats into
6560s this game not putting up too many points
6561s in game number one this could be tg2 5's
6564s day he he could put up a crazy number of
6567s points in games one two and three and he
6570s can MVP by game four it it it is a
6573s stretch it is a very long shot that this
6575s could be happening but there is
6578s possibilities and the performance that
6580s he had now just shows that he is able to
6583s put it on from game one and it's very
6587s very nice play from him some people they
6589s if they have a bad first game they're
6591s not able to heat up for the rest of the
6592s day tt25 is a player who we've shown
6595s time and time again that he's able to
6597s bounce back from bad games but we
6598s haven't seen what happens when his first
6600s game is a good one so it's definitely
6602s going to be super interesting to see how
6604s his play style is going to adapt to his
6607s normal gaming play style and this is the
6609s finals we definitely got to see some
6610s shakeups it's it's definitely an
6612s interesting one the amount of damage
6614s output from him the amount of
6615s eliminations he got four kills it's a
6617s very good number we usually see a few
6619s more eliminations from our MVP player
6621s especially if they don't get that first
6622s place fin
6623s so uh you know he's sitting at a pretty
6625s comfortable spot right now but he's
6627s still not first on that overall standing
6629s because of the pre-post
6631s points yeah the the preos points
6635s normally since it's such a small
6637s percentage you don't see it coming in
6639s super super big but because I would say
6642s uh the skill is so much closer I feel
6644s like it's going to be a close one today
6646s Seb I don't think anyone's going to blow
6648s out this tournament we've seen in the
6650s past because of the match point system
6652s in trios it ended in four games uh and
6655s when the match point system first came
6657s out Mike would end scrims in in this
6659s format in four games so it actually
6662s turned out where everyone had to evolve
6664s their game to the point to make sure
6666s that the target selection was on point
6669s that everyone really really scouts out
6672s who is on which character for each round
6676s when it comes to these details and
6678s especially going into this I'm sure all
6681s these competitors look at their post
6683s points and wanted to make sure that no
6685s one pulled away too far where everyone
6687s was in threat now when people get kills
6691s you're seeing such strong Target
6694s selection where that second uh Yang when
6698s you get that Yang depletion it's over
6700s for you we we saw many many players just
6703s have to tap out they just couldn't find
6706s anyone cuz everyone is doing such a good
6708s job of spacing out and identifying who
6711s exactly has that Yang depletion and
6714s they're not getting focus fired everyone
6717s is now holding that dagger in their
6719s pocket or fan to make sure that they
6721s have that instant scale Rush on lock at
6723s minimum BL blades or long sword but
6726s definitely at least a fan or dagger just
6729s for that movement ability and for the
6732s first time that was probably one of the
6733s most stacked end games we've seen this
6736s entire year everyone is playing this
6739s tight to the heart leading into Worlds
6741s there's a lot of prestige of w winning
6743s this one and all these players I I I'm
6747s really I got to say my heart is rooting
6749s for T225 second plays two years in a row
6752s at Worlds my man has to be chasing this
6756s one it it has to be so much more
6758s meaningful for to him looking at Mike we
6762s saw his confidence a little bit rattled
6764s but my man does not look rattled at all
6766s today he's looking pretty locked in as
6768s well I I actually saw some emotion from
6772s spider when the camera pan to him
6774s normally my man has been ice cold this
6776s entire year but the first time I saw a
6780s little bit of disappointment of that end
6782s game we saw him play it really really
6784s well he did make The High Ground route
6787s to try to win that heel off situation
6788s but he didn't come out with as much as
6790s he would like to that first
6792s game yeah and it's it's it's definitely
6795s the position that you don't want to be
6796s in especially since Mike had to burn
6798s that ultimate pretty early into that we
6801s saw him burn it he was trying to gain
6803s that rage back and he almost had his Al
6805s back I believe he had the AL popped when
6807s he was eliminated but it was too little
6811s too late as these players with the
6813s Matari dashes knocking everyone Every
6815s Which Way and the cannon shots coming in
6817s from the Liams especially as well with
6820s the Liam ultimates being invested near
6822s the end it was incredibly difficult for
6827s the lone Zing to survive in the state of
6829s that lobby but going into game number
6832s two we are going to be jumping juming
6833s over to the Holo map this is going to be
6835s a bit of a shakeup here we're going to
6837s see different players getting to pick
6839s first I believe our last place selection
6842s are going to be bumped up to getting
6843s their pick of the litter for their
6845s Heroes and this does put Mike in a very
6847s good position cuz Mike having that last
6850s round selection and still getting to
6852s play the hero that he always plays on a
6854s specific map is definitely a huge mental
6857s boost you don't have to play a hero that
6858s you don't want to play when you play
6860s your first game you're comfortable
6862s you're doing well even though he didn't
6864s have the outcome he wanted he's still
6866s going to be able to push forward in
6867s these next couple of games with a higher
6870s pick in the tree he's going to be closer
6873s to first pick from now on and it's going
6876s to be a lot easier for from him from
6878s here on out someone who I am a little
6881s bit worried about their mental getting
6882s affected by this game though is spider
6884s as he was in a decent position for a
6887s very good win but all of the Matari
6890s turning on each other in that End Circle
6893s and verse coming out the only Matari to
6896s pick up an elimination and become
6898s Victorious other than
6900s xuang it was very difficult for spider
6903s to be able to recover from that but like
6904s I said ladies and gentlemen first round
6906s selection now going to Mike and wufong
6908s verse and spider picking up the second
6910s round selection third round going to be
6912s going to Orono and Chu Jang XY and star
6914s picking up the fourth round and fifth
6916s round going to paste and tt25 the last
6919s round selection is going to be given to
6921s AIS and Fong bong someone who we saw
6925s near the end of this bi-weekly split
6927s show his true colors and came out to
6930s play he wasn't trolling anymore he
6932s wasn't messing around he wasn't here to
6934s have a good time he was here to win he
6936s was playing out of his mind but it looks
6938s like he's fallen back
6940s into his rut of not being able to play
6943s to his full potential I believe it's a
6945s confidence issue I'm not 100% sure but
6947s it's something that he needs to work on
6950s if he wants to put some points up in
6952s this solo finals we are going to see now
6954s the hero pick from spider Liam coming
6956s out and I need to get me some of those
6958s trading cards man they look very very
6961s well done taking a look at our third
6963s round selection Xiang and arano xang
6966s going to be opting for the vda hotties
6967s and Liams have already been bound out
6969s from round one third round arano going
6971s to be going for the AOS pick interesting
6973s play we have seen a decent amount of AOS
6976s through this nvpl split star going to be
6978s going for the zing zing being that
6981s oneoff character that a few of these
6983s players are picking we saw Mike in game
6984s one looks like star is hopping on the zp
6987s train and fourth round no Matari we're
6990s going to see XY going for the Tessa pick
6993s and now tt25 and Pace have the option we
6996s are going to see the vda coming out from
6997s tt25 past yet to make a selection he had
7000s a huge four elimination game in game
7003s number one he wants to continue that and
7006s follow it up with another big game
7008s hopefully get himself an MVP in game
7010s number two so he's going to go for the
7011s Matari to try and make that happen in
7013s the last round selection only three
7014s Heroes banned out so there's a good shot
7017s AIS going to be going for The Zing
7019s interesting play here and Fong last shot
7023s to take his pick here he's got 9 seconds
7026s left we are going to see him come out
7027s with a we're going to have a three zip
7030s Lobby that's insane Raven wow old meta
7035s coming through zipping used to be the
7037s most dominant character on holth with
7040s Faria when hottie came around he took
7042s the dominant play and now we're seeing
7044s hotti fall man but come back for finals
7047s it's it's very clear that the pros are
7049s thinking for pdor or holl out hotti is
7052s actually a really really good pick his
7055s kit allows him to win many different
7056s situations that early game off spawn the
7059s the middle game in order to get that
7061s Soul room for to cure that yangan or to
7064s deny and secure kills in the mid game
7066s where everyone is playing these huge
7068s multi-way fights and then being able to
7071s win off that heal off situ a having that
7073s nice burn tick off the triple charge and
7075s being able to guarantee staying in the
7077s center Zone not taking any uh Zone
7079s damage going in these end games I'm very
7082s very surprised that everyone has
7083s switched but it I think one of the
7086s things that that has happened that the
7087s pros made the adjustment there aren't as
7089s many Matari Matari has been tuned down a
7092s lot more her teleporting kit was a huge
7095s nuisance to hottie if she had a long
7097s sword it was very easy to cover hottie
7100s in these end games to come out of
7101s nowhere which so many many people around
7103s you so much sound going on it's a lot
7105s hard to concentrate and go for those
7106s parries and Dodge a Matari going at it
7109s so you weren't seeing such dominance
7113s from the hotties they were just getting
7114s focus fired in these end games now
7116s something that's very interesting though
7118s is zipping the triple pick now I think Z
7121s because we're going down an eight round
7124s series a lot of the what we're seeing is
7128s that somewhere in the middle of the
7129s phasing people are just going with uh
7131s their throw way rounds this is something
7133s that Frost talked to me a lot about that
7135s because there's so many rounds you're
7137s not going to be able to have your
7138s comfort picks it's very hard to have
7141s eight characters squared away you're
7142s obviously going to favor at least some
7144s of the cast a little bit more so for
7147s your warm-up games I always call game
7149s one and two your warm-up games you kind
7151s of some players take this route of
7155s playing their weaker cast first so when
7157s they finally heated up they're going to
7160s be able to capitalize on their good
7161s characters or when they're put in the
7162s clutch situation for that match point
7164s later down the line they're going to
7166s have their strong pits in order to
7167s secure but interesting stuff I can't
7169s wait to see what type of old school
7171s stuff we're going to see on hollo today
7173s yeah it's it's it's definitely a map
7175s that has been here for a while now it it
7178s we I when you think of hollo you usually
7180s think of the newer map uh in my head obv
7184s anyways and uh it is now been a map that
7187s has been in the rotation for quite some
7189s time so these players are very used to
7191s playing this map now it's become almost
7193s synonymous with Morris a and it it is a
7198s very very interesting play style and
7200s like you said some of the older
7201s strategies are starting to come back
7203s into fruition we do have three zps in
7206s one lobby AIS star and fun 10 11th and
7209s 12th Place all going to be on the zps
7211s we're seeing the hotties wuang and Mike
7214s coming out as well very close to each
7216s other here probably not wanting to take
7218s that offs spawn fight against each other
7220s the hotties are going to want to have
7222s each other in that end game to be able
7225s to kite out their opponents so you're
7227s going to see now arano going up against
7229s ss1 Pace we're going to see a beautiful
7232s Dodge F ability is going to be invested
7234s by arano isn't going to come away with
7236s the connect here Pace still on the
7238s charge tap Dodge roll going to come out
7240s for Morano gets the overh hold though
7242s Pace going to be able to come away with
7243s a lot of damage from into the one two3
7246s here trying to go for a scale Rush we're
7248s going to see him try and go for the
7249s weapon swap combo orano going to get
7251s that uppercut into a jumping lmb into a
7253s scale Rush Connect into another uppercut
7256s into another jumping lmb arano taking
7259s past out quickly making light work of
7261s the situation and now we're flipping
7262s over to Mike fighting against fpx verse
7265s on the side here we are going to see him
7267s very very low in HP we have a third
7269s party coming in as well looks like
7271s wufong going to be joining into the mix
7273s verse able to find himself an armor swap
7274s the commotion from Wong and Mike trying
7278s to give Chase has allowed him to gain a
7280s little bit of breathing room here as he
7281s does now have have that beautiful blue
7284s armor to help him out here Mike only on
7286s the gray armor had to invest the
7288s ultimate is going to find himself a gray
7289s armor swap though now we're seeing verse
7291s trying to go for an overh hold here is
7292s going to be able to get priority on to
7295s wufong verse able to try make something
7298s happen looks like he is just going to
7299s end up backing off here switching over
7300s to the staff between the staff and the
7303s nunchucks to change his movement around
7305s it looks like Mike going to try and make
7307s something happen the one two is going to
7308s come out able to connect verse very very
7311s low on HP needs to find find himself a
7313s bit of a reset here we're going to see
7314s the blue armor swap not coming out here
7317s it looks like that might have been a
7318s used up blue armor the heal is going to
7320s come out verse is looking very good
7323s right now but Wong still giving Chase
7326s we're going to see a huge charge attack
7327s coming through the F going to be
7328s invested to negate most of the damage
7331s ver going to try and make something
7332s happen F ability invested from Mike Mike
7335s on the backside now going for a bit of a
7336s heal one two coming out from verse with
7338s the Nunu trying to give Chase onto Mike
7340s Mike finding himself an armor swap going
7342s to go for a huge Parry here Wang able to
7345s get priority into the uppercut into the
7348s jumping lmb one two as we're going to
7350s see now wufong getting parried Mike
7352s going to be able to follow that up with
7353s a huge dagger charged R&B we going to
7357s see wufong now trying to go for a charge
7359s is not going to connect with anything
7360s here the one two coming out into a huge
7362s Parry into the weapon swap 1.0 F ability
7365s invested from Wong Wong going to try and
7367s kite this out now all he has is a gray
7370s fan now we don't see him with the huge
7372s weapon Advantage Mike and wufong both
7374s taking the skies now going at it Mike
7376s with a huge Advantage he's got that
7378s purple weapon giving him the purple
7380s variation of his ultimate if they go
7382s damage for damage Mike is going to be
7384s able to come out Victorious but it's all
7386s a matter of who hits first both flying
7388s and holding the space between them we're
7390s going to see Wong is going to end up
7392s just backing off here both ultimates are
7393s going to go down and Wong going to try
7395s and kite this out here seeing him trying
7396s to go for a Parry looks like the one two
7398s is going to connect one two back the way
7400s of Mike to be able to jump through a
7403s jump and then a jumping R&B is going to
7406s connect as well Mike forced to pop that
7408s F ability and wufong very aggressive
7410s into this fight here Mike taking a lot
7411s of damage is going to find himself an
7413s armor swap though the scale rush into
7414s the one two going into another one catch
7418s forcing out the F from wufong wufong
7421s very little HP tried to go for a great
7423s armor swap but there wasn't enough armor
7425s on to the armor that he picked up was
7429s not fully replenished here somebody had
7431s already swapped out of it looks like
7433s wufong in a lot of
7434s danger oh my goodness the double jump
7438s armb catching the double hold cancel for
7441s Mike I got that is wild coming out from
7444s woong now Mike still has a chance to
7446s close this out wuang doing a good job of
7449s cutting out Mike's pressure and this is
7450s no easy task kutting Mike right now and
7453s now both of these guys are in phase one
7456s so Mike has to know that this is woong
7459s and woong has had Mike's number lately
7462s can wufong maintain this nice light
7465s attacks coming out from Mike getting a
7466s lot of poke damage in wuang unless he
7467s gets an armor reset right now Mike is
7469s going to secure it nice constant
7471s pressure Mike like a wolf just staying
7474s on top of wolfang not letting him go now
7476s we're going to go go to plume Castle we
7479s got spider chasing down who is this who
7483s is looking like a snack for spider looks
7485s like it's going to be Fong oh man Fong
7488s not a easy snack when it comes to
7490s chasing him with dagger or fan inside
7494s pluma and on zipping going to be popping
7497s that V1 but spider is going to get the
7498s uppercut is going to get a nice damage
7501s on the drop down but it's not going to
7503s matter zipping is just an absolute unit
7505s his health is not even going down right
7507s now but spider not faced by this is
7509s going to go with a weapon swap Hong
7511s sword into dual how looking for the
7515s catch looking for the upper combo not
7516s able to get her F doing a good job of
7518s cutting this out but spider's going to
7519s go with the white armor reset he has to
7521s be careful right now
7522s multiple players descending here verse
7524s on the outside it looks like Fong going
7526s to take to the top I just it's pretty
7529s tough to hold down Fong this is what he
7531s is known for just top of plume Castle he
7534s plays out these middle games very very
7536s well doesn't take any risks and he's not
7538s really that easy of a kill now going
7541s back to the replay aano versus Pace over
7545s in the north arano on the acro pick
7547s going to get that F2 out nice juggle
7549s coming out Pace in the wake up situation
7550s going to tap down roll gets the St Agger
7552s wait a minute does he turn this around
7554s big Focus attack is going to be coming
7555s out Clank going to come out by Rano
7556s instant light closes it out had me on
7561s the edge of my seat for a second was he
7563s going to drop the ball but arano doesn't
7565s he dunks it down ends up securing that
7568s kill and we're going to see whether or
7570s not he can capitalize with his AOS
7572s versus verse in the second realm of
7575s Yang ladies and gentlemen keep in mind
7578s as well that was Pace second life he had
7580s already gotten eliminated earlier ss1
7583s Pace went from a four kill game to
7585s getting eliminated before first Yang had
7587s dropped completely out of this game now
7589s is going to have to try and make up a
7591s lot of ground arano now in the realm of
7593s Yang investing that F ability right away
7595s to try and see if he can get a combo
7596s starter off burn that F ability of his
7599s opponent right away and it looks like
7601s verse going to try and make something
7602s happen with these cannon shots as well
7604s as aano backto back cannon fire coming
7606s from both of these players or pistol
7607s Fire coming from first cannon fire
7609s coming from Morano holding the space
7611s with that purple Kong swword in hand
7614s dual Hollow Birds on the side of burst
7617s here we're going to see the scale Rush
7618s coming through F ability invested again
7620s from Morano the amount of time spent
7622s kiing he was able to recharge his F
7626s ability we are going to see the ultimate
7627s now invested from both of these players
7630s looks like arano going to try and make
7632s something happen with the tiger scale
7633s Rush going for a jump down we are going
7635s to see the ultimate invested now verse
7637s is going to get a huge grapple extension
7639s into the focus attack on two arano here
7643s tiger pounce is going to connect giving
7644s him a little bit of siphon into the jump
7646s we are going to see the claw coming out
7648s orano going to get caught again and
7650s that's going to be it for him here
7652s getting caught in that second Liam
7654s bubble and it is going to be it for him
7656s the double uppercut from K's T225 into
7659s the meter dump on the te start looks
7661s like ultimate has already been burned as
7663s well one2 coming out and now it's just
7666s one more Spear and te star has just been
7670s absolutely decimated by Kale is T225 it
7673s looks like Chu Jang has also won his
7675s respective real of Yang T225 with an
7678s absolutely amazing creative play coming
7681s out
7682s there a it always cracks me upset to
7684s hear the cluck from the Nunu it's
7687s just getting that the the double upgra
7690s into the spear the nice combo extension
7691s coming out from 25 that's all I'm saying
7693s that never I've never seen a 225
7697s momentum after the first round this
7699s might be his tournament he's already in
7701s first place at 10.5 tuang as well
7704s locking in dominating the field as well
7706s with the double vaa pick it's going to
7708s be tough for all these guys going into
7710s this end game if the BOS are this scaled
7712s up will they get Focus fired by the rest
7715s of the lobby we'll have to see how that
7717s plays out but on the outside we got star
7720s Ching multiple zipping in the lobby this
7723s is this is such a classic sight of HOV
7727s seeing all the zippies coming out kiting
7729s over and over double Char going to be
7730s released star is going to get parried by
7731s Chang Chang is going to pick up the
7734s weapon reset go for the Upp com put star
7737s in a ride v1's going to be invested by
7739s star Tap Out roll going to be moving
7741s into the buildings and then get the
7742s scale coming out but everyone is going
7744s to see this zipping getting chunked down
7747s by Cho Chang going to load up the gold
7750s dual blades with the weapon swap doing a
7752s ton of damage is going to make a mistake
7754s accidentally actually he doesn't make a
7756s mistake he throws a Parry due to the
7758s flank we just don't see the flank from
7759s this camera angle star doing a good job
7761s of king for now his health is going up
7764s from the wi1 but his V1 has faded right
7767s now bur nice fan lift off with the win
7771s chenny one's going to be jumping in
7772s jumping again will be trying to get that
7773s stagger off but star still making his
7775s way out of his conserving stamina trying
7777s to get out of here but he's going to get
7778s put into the corner scale is going to be
7779s coming out Liam and Al is going to be
7781s invested can star get away everyone's
7783s coming in Bal the bubbles are going to
7784s be coming down but star doing his best
7785s to get out of here everyone's going to
7787s be start hitting each other as well but
7788s star will fall to Chen he started with
7791s kill and he ends with the kill himself
7794s now shenyuan is going to be looting up
7796s grab a little bit of loot out of there
7798s but Chang is looking in form up to three
7803s kills very impressive start for Chang
7806s this game we didn't see too much of him
7808s last game he was able to pick up two
7810s eliminations near the end getting
7811s himself a decent standing but now has
7813s put himself on the top of the board we
7815s did see in the kill feed as well Kay's
7817s T25 was eliminated on his vermilion's
7820s life fighting against oh ug's Mike Mike
7822s was able to come away with a nice
7824s elimination setting him up for two kills
7826s as well as XY getting himself that Soul
7829s bloom in the fight where we saw te star
7832s get eliminated which now cures his Yang
7835s depletion and keeps him safe for the
7837s time being we are seeing ewg's orano the
7839s next player who needs to cure himself of
7842s that Yang depletion orano going to be
7844s facing off against x1's Wang huge Parry
7846s going to come out able to take the swap
7848s onto those purple dual hirs he's now
7850s going to be able to do the swap combo
7852s that all of these players have been
7854s performing going from the hird switching
7856s over to the hung sword and then running
7859s it back over to the HS for the followup
7861s damage gives you an extended amount of
7864s combo damage that you don't get to see
7866s from only using one weapon ewg Zano now
7869s in a bad spot getting hit with the hotti
7872s AL now he's going to be captured by the
7874s Tessa charm going to get Frozen up here
7876s and verse coming away with the
7878s elimination and AIS going to be able to
7881s come in try and snag some stuff out we
7882s do see the F2 being run from a which is
7885s an interesting play we don't usually see
7887s the F2 coming out on the zps uh it gives
7891s you a anti- stagger buff for a little
7894s bit less healing than the F1 so as this
7897s is why it's typically not chosen over
7900s the F2 but this could be his
7902s differentiating factor with the other
7904s zps in the lobby that could give him an
7907s edge up on to his competition we'll see
7910s how it works out for him in the future
7912s he doesn't have an elimination yet on
7914s the board but there is still a lot of
7917s game to be played nine players left
7919s realm of Yang looming in the distance 3
7922s seconds left till these players are
7923s going to make their way into the Yang
7925s Mike looking like he's going to want to
7927s go for a bit of a snipe here spider as
7929s well thinking the same thing Mike and
7932s spider realm of Yang here anybody that
7934s would be a very interesting fight we get
7936s to see right off the bat it looks like
7937s someone's gone in we're going to see who
7940s it is in a second T225 first in to the
7943s Yang as asc's XY goes for the spirit
7946s well this is something uh I took note of
7951s of which players like going in first cuz
7954s a lot of people don't think of at first
7957s if you wait to go into GR of gang last
7959s you generally are going in for
7962s someone who uh is trying to avoid who's
7965s just trying to snipe and so there's a
7967s chance that you get a weaker opponent
7969s for it so a lot of the times the
7970s strongest player ends up going in last
7973s in the past M has always just gone first
7975s cuz he doesn't really care who he's
7976s fighting against so we see a rare
7978s instance of Mike not just going in
7979s immediately we are going to have Mike
7981s versus spider but we're going to be
7983s observing choing versus 225 these are I
7986s would say some of the favorites to take
7988s this as far as the veterans this is the
7989s old school Veterans going at it Chen
7993s versus 225 both of the VA is going out
7995s will we go to a timeout right now but
7996s Chang is going to start off with the
7997s offense get a nice tagger on the top R
7999s 225 not able to startall out with that P
8001s sword Chang with these gold d h is doing
8003s a ton of damage even though he's just
8005s getting a little bit of Pok in that gold
8008s weapon is just doing so much damage nice
8010s flies in with the R&B 225 not able to
8013s react in time just how fast those dual
8015s blades come in you just cannot react to
8018s the actual sound effects 225 is doing
8020s his best to ice off his pressure but
8022s Chen is going to keep this up forces out
8024s the folks attack from 225 and now 225
8026s going for a ride going to get put into
8027s the corner right now followup is going
8029s to come out Chang goes with the uppercut
8031s for the wake up coverage not able to get
8033s him into the ultimate nice job covering
8036s his tracks covering that small mistake
8038s and now 225 sucking a tough situ going
8040s to go with the crouching eny is going to
8041s get easily punched from Chang and Chang
8044s looking clean looking locked in classic
8047s match up ladies and gentlemen spider
8049s versus Mike these two have been at each
8052s other's necks for the last year spider
8055s going up getting chipped out he was
8056s leading just a second ago but now Mike
8058s has him across roads but fighter is
8060s going to be fighting back gets a nice
8061s tagger right now going to force out the
8062s combo break lmb is going to be coming
8063s out KN to fade away light attack spider
8065s is going to lay the trap and take down
8068s Mike in his spider oh my God the fade
8071s away hold Dodge into the half charg lmv
8075s and Mike will fall to spider what a
8078s crazy win coming out from spider he's
8080s going to look back I hope after this
8082s game and realize who he to took down man
8085s the momentum is going to be going for
8087s spider and Chang going into this end
8089s game SE wow what a play it looked like
8093s it was going spider's way when we first
8094s tuned in then we saw it turn back around
8097s Mike with that velocity Untold Soul Jade
8100s on the nunchucks able to deal so much
8103s damage wasn't able to come away with the
8106s elimination in the end putting Mike on
8108s the Yang depletion as well as K's
8112s tt25 chuang and tt25 pretty evenly
8115s matched when we saw the fight's first
8117s break out in the start of these games
8119s but it looks like Chi Jang has started
8120s to run away with with it in their
8122s matchup in the realm of Yang he did take
8124s the victory putting himself onto four
8126s eliminations while k225 has been stuck
8129s at two Mike as well only on two
8131s eliminations spider that realm of Yang
8133s victory has picked up his first kill as
8136s we do see versus well with two
8138s eliminations on the board bumping
8139s himself up to second place on the
8141s leaderboard versus someone who isn't
8142s talked about a lot at this so far we've
8147s been talking about tt25 we've been
8148s talking about Chu Jang but vers is up
8150s there right now he's been putting on a
8152s very good show he was the last survivor
8154s in game number one but did not have that
8158s amount of kills to come away Victorious
8160s we're going to see a huge velocity
8162s coming out huge damage coming through
8164s the overh hold on to Mike is going to
8167s connect the nunchuk battle blue
8168s nunchucks versus purple nunchucks but
8171s dt25 in not the greatest spot right now
8174s wants to get a bit of a pot off before
8176s re-engaging into this fight against Mike
8178s Mike very very high on the Health
8180s Advantage right now we do have ultimates
8182s available if it the situation does get
8185s more dire T25 going to try and kite this
8187s out finds himself a gray armor we're
8190s going to see the trigger get popped Mike
8191s going to try and go for the tech Chase
8192s we're going to see the bubbles come out
8194s able to get pryo off of that but the F
8195s ability invested Mike now no Shield
8198s available is going to go for a bit of a
8200s pot we're going to see the armor Swap
8201s come around but I don't believe he was
8202s able to get the swap off in time to give
8204s himself a pot we are going to see him
8206s get the purple armor replenished and it
8208s looks like gg25 back into this fight
8210s looking a little bit more confident now
8212s that he's got that armor and the health
8214s back in his name huge Parry going to
8216s come out though Mike able to deal huge
8218s damage F ability going to be invested
8220s forcing the alt out from tt25 right now
8222s spear is going to come out but Mike
8224s going to invest that ultimate to avoid
8226s attack from the spear the punish going
8228s to come through as tt25 going to try and
8230s send another spear out I believe he's
8231s got one left going to see him send it
8233s Mike's way misses the spear does have
8235s that Health Advantage for a little bit
8237s we're going to see the ultimate getting
8238s canceled as well Mike going to get hit
8239s by Chu Jang we're going to see those
8241s golden dual hird just dealing so much
8244s damage M could be in a lot of trouble
8245s now the whole Lobby deciding to third
8247s party this fight the Yang depletion
8250s players not getting an easy fight to the
8254s death where they were able to have one
8257s Victorious it looks like Mike is going
8258s to be able to lose focus of most of
8260s these players right now and tt25 still
8263s very very low in HP Mike needs this
8265s Bloom if he doesn't get the bloom of
8266s tt25 it's going to be very difficult for
8268s him to be able to come away with an
8270s elimination onto another player this
8271s fast he's got 2 minutes left so he does
8274s have the time looks like he is just
8275s going to go for a bit of a reset here
8277s we're going to check in on K cg25 in a
8279s second it looks like he still managed to
8281s stay alive for the time being here but
8283s holy the entire Lobby just relentlessly
8286s chasing and it looks like Chu Jang has
8288s gotten very low here T25 fully reset
8292s here we're going to see the will form
8293s hook available as well for Chu Jang he's
8295s got that Soul Jade in the back pocket if
8297s he needs to throw it out he has found
8299s himself a little Nook where he's been
8300s able to take a bit of a reset and now
8302s Mike still the target of the
8305s lobby unlucky for Mike he has 225
8308s against the ropes but Chen comes in with
8310s that family meta he like wait he's
8312s taking that one of the the Bas no way
8314s we're going to take you down first which
8316s just goes to show that I think balda and
8319s hottie in all the these end games are
8322s still the main targets for all the lobby
8324s everyone wants they see one of these
8326s guys or one of these characters getting
8328s a ton of pressure they want to dive in
8330s and want them cuz they are favored to
8333s win these end games look like 225 is
8335s going to put on the pressure onto this
8338s hottie who had the nun tuck it happens
8340s to be Mike right now both of these guys
8343s this is one of 22 V's rival can he take
8345s down Mike can he slow down Mike in all
8347s this or can Mike actually slow down 225
8350s they are neck to neck on the leaderboard
8352s but 225 is going to get shredded right
8353s now but f for the snipe shot with the
8356s bow is going to secure that kill Tes is
8358s going to be coming out onto Mike jumping
8360s R&B the brand door is going to be coming
8361s out Mike down to one HP going to be
8363s trying to dodge all of this range attack
8364s gets inside the 10 able to get one heal
8366s off can he get more right now he's going
8368s to go into Zone try to fade away try to
8370s break down line sight gets another heal
8371s off but the pressure is coming out from
8373s the rest of the lobby you see the shots
8375s coming out Mike's bobin weav trying to
8378s get out of there has to invest his combo
8379s break right now but Fong staying on top
8382s of them woong trying to secure this kill
8385s as well seeing the last hit situation
8387s the Betrayal from the hottie brother can
8390s Mike find armor friends as Everyone
8393s likes to say mike always finds these
8395s armors he finds two white armor resets
8397s armor friends are coming in clutch for
8398s Mike and the whole Lobby is chasing him
8401s right now the jumping musket shots the
8404s cannon shots Mike is fading away
8406s everything he is going to be able to get
8407s to the safe tense the fences he's
8409s bombing weaving looking for some more
8412s armor friends but can he find another
8414s one he gets another one Mike's just
8416s keeping going he has his Nikes on he's
8420s sprinting away but Fong will secure the
8422s kill and Mike will fall this game too
8426s wow what an effort from Mike you've got
8429s to give him his Applause there he was
8432s able to Traverse the entire map get
8436s three armor swaps and break the ankles
8438s of every single player before finally
8440s getting brought down drg's Fong one of
8442s the players who is extremely good at
8446s kiing out is even better at chasing we
8449s see his full skill coming out there
8451s there as that's his second elimination
8453s of the game we now have chuong and verse
8456s wufong spider XY Fong and AIS still
8461s alive in this game it looks like Fong
8462s going to go for a bit of a reset here
8463s took a bit of damage going for that
8466s elimination we are going to
8468s see the zings grouping up on the other
8471s side here looks like they've lost one of
8473s them spider going to get hit by the Bane
8475s going for a reset here he does have that
8478s that white tigers so he's going to be
8479s gaining a bit of health and Shield over
8481s time if he does end up losing some two
8484s naade going to be coming out from jl's
8485s AIS and CH Jang looking to contest the
8488s zp space here as AIS not fully back on
8492s the alt as well
8493s chuang does not have full ultimate we're
8496s going to take a look at his glyphboard
8498s as well we see most of it invested on
8500s the stamina side a little bit on the
8502s rage and then we've got the one blue
8506s skill selected the base blue
8508s skill he's got a good allaround
8511s or sorry purple we we don't see any blue
8514s just a little bit of purple as uh Chang
8518s very very set up here gold armor gold
8520s dual hirts he's got a very good shot to
8523s Come Away with the MVP he's already got
8525s four eliminations under his belt so if
8527s everything goes his way believe he is
8529s the lone vda in this Lobby right now so
8531s not having another vda could be very
8534s difficult for him we did see T225 get
8537s eliminated earlier into this game as uh
8540s he was trying to cure Yang depletion in
8542s that fight with Mike now everybody
8544s converging onto each other it looks like
8546s they are going to be trying to go for
8547s the vaa right now these Liams wanting to
8550s take that VA out early oh the charge
8552s attack coming through from the pull
8554s sword going to be dealing some huge
8556s damage it looks like CH jangs is going
8558s to be given the respect he is going to
8560s get himself a bit of a
8562s reset a lucky break for Chang no one
8565s else wants to poke at Chang the gold
8568s armor they everyone knows he is one of
8570s the most stacked in L now we're seeing
8572s the likes of spider and verse both the
8575s trying to poke out some of these tankier
8577s characters right now but spider is going
8580s to pay for challenging Chang Chang's
8582s going to go right to spider going for
8584s the juggler but spider did have that
8586s armor reset on Deck now verse waiting on
8588s the outside Liam is going to pop his
8590s ultimate ch's going to be forcing out
8592s his B2 on the VA he has a little bit of
8595s Health right now going for a couple
8597s heals doesn't look like spider and verse
8600s want to continue the pressure they're
8601s going to wait out this ultimate they
8602s don't want to risk getting speared
8603s getting focus fired on the outside so
8605s shenu one bong a waiting for their
8608s opportunity we got two zipping as well
8610s two multiple tanky characters going into
8612s this I I got to say Seb the Liams are
8615s not looking like the favorites right now
8616s we got double zipping double we got a
8618s vda out here we got a hottie and we have
8621s a we have a rogue shenyuan on the Tessa
8624s got that wild card ready to throw out
8625s that Tessa at a moment Z as seven people
8628s alive we're going to another stacked end
8630s game game again more than half the lobby
8632s is alive going into this last leg we got
8634s a nice little open area a little bit of
8636s trees for some counterplay we got a
8637s couple T I imagine we're going to still
8639s have that nice ultimate High constant
8642s grapple candles at the top and we're
8643s going to have a a low ground of the Liam
8646s is dominating plus the spear from choang
8649s now both of these characters did get
8652s their um what's it called their
8655s ultimates baited out right now wuon
8658s going with a greedy play right now
8659s looking for that gold swap he is going
8661s to get hit by with a cannon shot
8662s revealing his health he is going to go
8664s into this 10 try to buy some time but
8666s the last two minutes are upon us the
8669s zone is closing in everyone's getting
8672s forced into the middle doesn't look like
8675s we have much counter play right now we
8676s just got a small little bit of 10 but
8677s it's just open ground right now the
8680s cannon shots are going to be raining
8681s Supreme right now Chang immediately
8683s going on the aggro going to be jumping
8684s one in the zipping trying to get someone
8686s else focused before he can he noticed
8687s someone's in this little bit of 10
8689s realizes this spot is pretty good he's
8690s going go allall in right now invest his
8691s combo break right now but W's going to
8693s hold this ground Chang with the double
8694s hold release with the single hold single
8696s TR release both of these guys mashing it
8698s out right now Tes going to be coming in
8699s from genuine but Chang is going to claim
8701s the spot inside this building right now
8703s trying to chill hide away from everyone
8706s but spider is going to notice someone's
8708s in the building is he going to Vibe
8709s check see the health of choang look for
8711s this kill right now he goes for this
8714s care off to play this a little bit safer
8715s and Chang with the play is going to take
8718s and get that nice reset can he hold on
8720s and get to his Baltimore and secure this
8722s win Seb and it's looking very difficult
8725s for him here he's going to try and go
8727s for that will form hook to see if he can
8728s get any siphon off but drg Fong with the
8730s fan blue fan in hand going to come away
8732s with a lot of damage able to eliminate
8735s the top player in the lobby right now
8736s which was chuang we're going to see the
8738s fan Focus come out onto spider as well
8740s into a one two we are going to see the
8742s crouching one coming out on to the side
8745s of Fong now spider getting dangerously
8747s low on HP going to pop that ultimate to
8749s try and get some siphon back was able to
8750s get bit Health off the legs of drg f f
8753s going to TI out onto the outside of the
8754s circle here ultimate completely burned
8756s now for spider this is a difficult space
8757s to be in as the circle's closing in
8760s completely open playing field for
8761s everywhere nowhere to go no one to hide
8763s and there's two Zips left in the lobby
8765s the heal off is going to be intense as
8766s we do see both Zips popping their
8768s ultimate now all they need to do is not
8770s eliminate each other as it looks like
8772s they are going to start attacking each
8773s other down on the bottom both of these
8775s players able to retrieve their souls
8777s we're going to see Liam all take a lot
8779s of these players into the stun we are
8781s going to see first able to pick up an
8783s elimination onto XY but now Fong getting
8786s oh my goodness what just happened
8787s everybody was alive and now everybody's
8789s dead Fong last player standing and I
8792s believe that is going to be drg's Fong
8795s for
8797s MVP two seconds two seconds you blink
8801s and you miss it everybody dies and fun
8804s is the winner ladies and
8806s gentlemen B massively plays the multi
8810s way fights super well and this is what
8813s he is known for on the outside he's just
8817s lurking waiting to sneak up get that
8820s assassination play going come in with
8822s that third party when you least expected
8825s he's known for his entire play and that
8827s game play goes very very well with
8829s zipping B one of the veterans he's
8831s played holos a gillion times he's very
8834s accustomed to that play style running
8836s with that fan and Dagger and we see it
8839s come out some old school zipping play on
8843s the hall rth he had so many kills going
8845s on end game and he plays that Health
8848s situation perfectly you see him with the
8850s highest amount of Health now he doesn't
8852s get the lastes that he would like he
8853s gets juggled doesn't have a combo break
8855s cuz you're unzipping but still he found
8858s so many nice multi-way pickoffs going
8861s into that end game so it doesn't matter
8863s Fong is able to secure many many kills
8865s going to that last little bit that we
8867s didn't even see it happen that's how
8869s that's how sneaky his play was was I
8871s really thought chuang played super super
8874s well that able to secure that nice
8875s position able to take away the 10 spot
8878s from shenyuan to try to prolong his life
8881s as vda but unfortunately spider and
8885s believe verse on the Liam ruined his
8888s game plan but first ladies and gentlemen
8891s we have another question for you guys
8894s for some summer split random gifts which
8897s player used Liam Lou in game two was it
8900s a fpx z Q's verse b asc's shenan c szd
8907s rg's Fong or
8910s dss1 Pace I was literally just saying
8913s this yeah we were we were just talking
8916s about it so it was
8918s uh it's a pretty obvious answer ladies
8920s and gentlemen they're giving us a second
8922s layup question if you were paying
8924s attention to that final fight you'll
8925s know exactly who is playing Liam in that
8928s final Circle and wow I just got to say
8931s that ending circle Fong not able to pick
8933s up any eliminations in that final Circle
8935s except for the kill onto wufong with the
8937s bow shot but four eliminations for him
8939s is going to put him with a multiplier
8942s and the ranking points giving him a game
8943s score of 7.8 points we're going to see
8946s verse with four points 1.5 on the
8949s ranking is going to give him a game
8950s score of 5.5 in second place and verse
8952s doing consistently good and that's what
8954s we like to see tt25 falling off a little
8957s bit in sixth place at 2.5 points we're
8960s going to see Jang in third with five AIS
8962s in fourth with three Mike is going to be
8965s a 2.5 tide with tt25 and XY for fifth
8969s place arono is going to be getting two
8971s tied for eighth with spider wufong with
8973s the 1.5 star with the one and Pace going
8976s from a massive game in game number one
8979s to a donut in game number two we're
8981s going to take a look at our overall
8982s standings Pace dropping from in the top
8986s six contention to being in ninth place
8989s now with that donut game at a 7.1 and
8991s Ninth Place star on the bottom with 3.8
8994s at 12 11th place is going to go to AIS
8997s 10th to Orono eighth to XY and seventh
9000s to Fong Fong climbing up he was in I
9003s believe 10th or 11th place after game
9006s number one starting to climb himself
9008s back up in the standings it looks like
9009s spider's going to be in sixth Mike in
9012s fifth wufong in
9013s fourth T25 in third with 11 chuong in
9018s second with 13.5 and fun plus Phenix
9020s verse having consistency across the
9022s board 4.5 4.2 5.5 with a 14.2 game score
9027s is going to be our highest player of the
9030s game so far we only have two games
9032s played so there is going to be a very
9036s very close games coming through 13.5 not
9040s far behind is Chiang and 11 tt25 all of
9043s these players neck in neck with each
9045s other wufong at 10.8 only2 points behind
9049s K's TT five wuang doesn't get Wong had
9053s 7.8 points coming into this and then two
9056s 1.5 point games he's not playing the
9058s greatest here but if he's able to start
9059s heating up coming into game number three
9062s and on he will have a very good shot
9065s this is kind of he has his room for
9067s error he's used his room for error up
9069s already and now there's no more
9071s faltering here we're going to take a
9073s look at some of our highlights brought
9074s to you part by Thunder
9077s robot K's 225 for te star get that Rerun
9084s of the nice follow up on the Viper V2
9087s this is a tough part of a zipping she is
9089s combo food for those big combo
9093s characters like vao this combo extension
9096s very very easy for her when she pops
9099s those Spears Onto You weing Chang as
9101s well dominating his R of Yang the
9103s classic match up of the titans of solos
9107s nraa Mike versus spider this last little
9109s bit so high level
9110s so high pressure and Mike is going to
9114s fall he thinks that nice RB was going to
9116s be coming through and you see spider Rel
9119s that he's able to come out with that
9121s clutch now going into this end game Mike
9123s tries to fade away from the rest of the
9125s lobby but unfortunately the demon of the
9128s multi-way fight the fan and Dagger made
9132s himself thong ising to secure this win
9135s and this is what I saying T
9137s that the dominance of team 225 Mike and
9142s spider hasn't been the same narrative
9145s this season with the rule changes with
9147s the meta ships with the name changing
9149s being hidden we're seeing their
9152s competition rise to the occasion and
9155s Fong that one cter predicted that Fong
9157s was going to do super well he can't
9158s count him out he is doing super super
9161s well he's in the top five right now can
9163s he keep this going having a good round
9166s on zipping is really really big you
9169s didn't have to go in into really realm
9171s of Yang to get those bigs you can play
9173s the outside you can play the States you
9175s can play The Spirit Well and you but you
9177s have to play the multi-way fight super
9180s well one of the uh big skills that I
9183s would say have changed in
9185s ARA is movement there's a new ceiling
9187s for movement getting away and chasing
9190s people down if you don't have every
9192s single weapon locked in you don't have
9195s the chase down neutral really really
9196s dialed in you're really not going to
9198s secure a kill in these multi-wave fights
9201s it is so hectic with amount of people
9204s running pistol for that guaranteed chip
9206s damage running Cannon so you can't run
9208s and hide around a corner get that heal
9210s off so making space finding uh heals and
9215s finding armor resets is really really
9217s difficult plus finding that that right
9221s character with so many characters
9222s running around in these end games you
9224s saw how easily Mike was able to Bob and
9226s weave lose his opponents with just a
9229s little bit of terrain situation but long
9232s was able to secure some kills able to
9234s come in with some clutch bow shots that
9237s got to work smarter not harder but first
9239s we're going to be going to our first
9241s break ladies and gentlemen game two in
9243s the books still six more games to go
9245s don't go anywhere folks we still have a
9248s lot of solo finals nakaka pro league
9250s coming back for you after a short break
9270s h
9332s ladies and gentlemen welcome back to
9335s nraa proleague Grand finals I Raven py
9339s and I am joined by the wonderful The
9341s Splendid SE and what an exciting day of
9344s solos we've had so far Seb I cannot
9348s believe that after all the the years of
9350s nraa we're finally going to see the
9353s throne being shaken up like the top five
9357s for the first time in the longest time
9359s I've always told people that 225 spider
9361s Mike are the premier solo players no one
9363s challenges their fighting ability but
9364s we're seeing the likes of shenyuan uh
9367s shenyuan wufong verse Star new players
9371s coming in and letting them know that
9373s real of Yang is no longer free we're not
9375s afraid of you anymore I I don't know
9377s who's going to win it today Seb yeah it
9380s I came into this day saying oh Mike and
9383s spider are probably going to win I'm
9384s hoping we get to see uh wuang do
9387s something crazy come out with a whole
9389s bunch of points and end up taking it
9392s away but wow we are ending up
9396s seeing the the play is starting to go to
9399s these different players the player who's
9400s been playing the most consistently
9401s throughout these games has been fpx
9404s verse who is on the top of our
9405s leaderboard as we are speaking it can
9408s all change in these next coming games
9410s but he has had the most consistent play
9412s so far these extra pre-post points have
9415s been a huge help to some of these
9416s players in making sure they don't fall
9418s too low in the scoreboards with the
9420s likes of wuon and uh Mike and spider
9422s playing decent they're not playing too
9424s horrible but they're five and six on the
9427s leaderboard right now and they
9429s definitely need to have a little bit of
9431s an extra push we haven't seen the famous
9433s Mike take over an entire game get a
9435s whole bunch of eliminations finish first
9437s and make it look easy we haven't se seen
9440s the spider crazy early game Crazy mid
9442s Game Crazy end game stories that we
9445s usually see it it has been very evenly
9447s matched with his fighting ability and
9449s like you said with the name change with
9451s not being able to see these names these
9452s players are starting to fight more for
9454s themselves fighting a player not having
9457s that in the back of their head of like
9459s oh I'm fighting against spider oh I'm
9461s fighting against Mike this is not going
9464s to go well for me they have this oh I'm
9466s fighting an mvpl player and I'm going to
9469s come away with the Victory and get this
9471s kill the the the change to the mental is
9473s definitely a huge part of what has gone
9476s into to this game especially in the
9479s finals here and you can see it come out
9481s there's a lot more players alive when
9483s we're going into this late game we're
9484s starting off with nine usually going
9486s into that final circle with seven or six
9489s and then that final final circle is
9491s closing out with four or five players so
9493s it has it is a lot more density of these
9496s players when it comes to the final
9498s Circle because everybody's playing
9500s on this another level it's a game seven
9503s energy that's come out in game number
9505s two and hopefully we'll get to see that
9507s game seven energy in game
9510s three yeah I I cannot stress how big the
9514s name change is the mental is so
9517s different like being a competitor being
9519s a coach of of a lot of really really
9522s strong players in multiple
9524s games one of the biggest enemies of
9526s being a competitor is your your your own
9528s self like the the am how critical you
9531s have to be of your own
9533s gamepl in order to compete at the level
9535s it's so much your inner dialogue is so
9537s much and it's very easy to get
9539s intimidated by your opponents momentum
9542s is so key and I would say resolve is one
9545s of the biggest indications of being uh
9548s successful in a competitive game but
9550s with the name change it takes away a lot
9554s of the the mental Edge I feel like Mike
9557s and spider had over their competition
9560s Frost even told me in scrims when he was
9562s playing he felt like people would shy
9564s away from fighting these two now we're
9567s seeing no one shy away in fact we're
9570s seeing the likes of Mike and spider
9572s actually being hunted for a long time we
9574s saw a lot of family meta going on
9576s meaning like if you're the same
9577s character you don't really want to take
9579s the same fight and for sure after game
9581s one the phases are set your groups are
9583s set you kind of know who is your Duo for
9586s the day who is the other person in your
9588s phase and you see Mike and Wang go at it
9592s immediately for the first time I'd say
9594s there's so much rivalry within the
9597s league everyone is giving each other a
9599s lot more respect or disrespect that
9602s they're challenging in so many
9604s situations that they wouldn't before Oh
9607s my God and this is something I noticed
9608s too SE in every other tournament in
9611s every other weekly Grand finals or
9613s weekly finals throughou Play We I always
9615s saw a spider almost look like a LOF and
9617s board but now we're seeing him a lot
9620s more animated a lot more motions coming
9622s out of him now nothing new from Wang
9624s here he's always looked super locked you
9627s can see you can almost feel that aura of
9630s seriousness he hits out with a big yawn
9633s a little bit tired from the prep Fork
9636s wuang though I got to say out of all of
9639s the players he has a ton of momentum
9643s coming from uh the pre-finals win but
9647s can you keep it up there's a lot of
9649s pressure once you do well I would say
9653s there there's there's tilt from doing
9655s bad but I would say there's also tilt
9657s from doing good you can you can kind of
9659s feel a little bit entitled that oh
9660s you've done enough work and you could
9662s stop being hungry now during the
9663s interviews we saw Wang say that he still
9666s wants to keep fighting still feels like
9667s he could do better we'll have to see the
9669s first two rounds are in the bags I
9670s always say the first two rounds are the
9672s warm-up rounds now everyone's locked in
9674s everyone's he no more excuses you got to
9677s show your aame right here this is for
9678s all the marbles before worlds and it's
9681s not easy to get in the world for some of
9683s these players they won't be on that
9685s world stage so they fought this entire
9687s season to get here can they show up big
9690s cuz first place for dcka pro league is
9694s probably one of the hardest things to
9696s actually accomplish these are the most
9698s practiced solo players in the world
9700s right
9701s now well yeah they they have the most
9704s time and hours logged into this game if
9706s you go look at their their naraka
9708s accounts and check how much much how
9710s many hours they have in the regular game
9712s itself and as well on these dedicated
9714s servers playing in the mvpl tournaments
9717s the amount of practice time that these
9719s players have got in analyzing playing
9722s practicing grinding out every single
9724s little detail anything that goes wrong
9727s with their game they have to be able to
9729s switch it and iron it out and this is
9731s what we're starting to see is all of
9733s these players are catching up to the top
9735s players we usually see someone run away
9738s with it and now we're not seeing it
9739s happen anymore and taking a look as well
9742s we're seeing the third game straight
9744s with zing zing making a huge climb back
9747s into the meta which I'm absolutely
9748s loving here we are going to also see two
9751s tamis coming out Mike and wuang on the
9753s Tami we're seeing a Justina pick from
9757s verse verse one of the players who's
9759s played very well and is on the top of
9761s the leaderboard right now let's see how
9763s he'll be able to cook on the Justa we've
9767s seen some players do some AB absolutely
9770s atrocious things when it comes to the
9773s Justina Tod combos that we have seen
9776s sometimes in the realm of Yang those
9777s Last Stand one HP fights with the
9780s Justino ultimate are always ones to
9782s watch so as we're jumping in to game
9785s number six ladies and gentlemen these
9787s players are getting locked in getting
9789s ready to
9790s go game number three my mistake ladies
9794s and gentlemen we're not on six yet solo
9797s Grand finals it's all on the line here
9799s taking look at what ultimates and
9800s abilities these players are going to be
9802s using it's going to be F2 V1 for the
9804s Justina this is Justina is one of the
9805s heroes that we often see a switch in the
9808s abilities AIS also on the Justina going
9811s to be rocking F2 V2 so the ultimates are
9813s switched around Fong a player who when
9815s he plays justtina likes to play on the
9817s F1 ability that gives you Shield back
9820s but isn't a combo break we are also
9822s seeing the F1 ability for our tamies
9825s with the V3 accompanying pretty standard
9828s across the board as well for the rest of
9829s the players it's going to be F2 V2 for
9831s the hotties F1 V1 for the Liams F1 V V1
9836s for the kylin tt25 opting to go for the
9838s kyin and our vda are going to be playing
9842s on
9845s F22 interesting that AIS is going to go
9847s with V2 on justena versus versus V1
9852s versus really known for his Justina in
9854s the league making it makes sense why
9856s he's running the V1 the big difference
9858s between running V one versus V2 and
9861s justtina is V1 you you mainly play
9863s neutral you mainly play counterplay like
9865s you play very very reactionary you can
9867s punish so many different animations by
9869s uh watching your opponent seeing if he's
9872s willing to throw out a bad move and wait
9875s menacingly V2 though allows you to
9878s pressure but it also forces your
9880s opponent on the defense a little bit uh
9883s where they're just trying to tap down
9885s that but I would say V2 element of
9888s surprise is probably going to be there
9889s just because it's not as much in the
9891s meta right now when sh was more
9893s prevalent you saw V2 everywhere so a lot
9895s of the times when someone ran against in
9897s justo they were more willing to tap
9899s Dodge because V1 is there a lot of
9902s people will hold and just dodge the
9904s inevitable Dash through afterwards
9907s because they can deny the actual stagger
9910s we'll have to see how that pays off but
9912s I imagine AIS is going to come in with a
9914s nice third party
9915s V2 freeze but we're going to get as East
9918s Shen versus Star off spawn star going
9922s that lmb one charge Shuan is going to
9925s get grapple staggered before he can get
9927s away from here but he's going to get the
9928s nice white armor reset star now in going
9930s to Clank out xuan with the fade away
9932s Perry not going to get the punish right
9934s now gets back to back parry's on the
9936s star and now star is going to be the
9938s focus fire of Mike star with no more
9940s weapon in his hands throwing some hands
9942s out trying to get a slap on but Chen one
9944s coming in hot he's got to worry about
9945s Mike on the backside but Mike's going to
9947s steal the first kill and the Soul boom
9949s and the kill he's going to get a nice
9950s two-piece off spawn and Mike's going to
9952s be starting off very very strong on his
9954s T Bic for this game three what a crazy
9958s play from Mike he came and said I'll
9960s take that and I'll take you as well
9962s coming away with two eliminations
9964s starting this game like we've seen Mike
9967s in the past absolute Menace in the
9970s battlefield here as we are seeing him go
9972s for another fight already here F ability
9974s going to be invested as we do see pry
9976s getting given over to a we are going to
9978s see him try and go for the uppercut into
9981s a extension going for the three rmbs
9985s there little bit of an interesting play
9987s tap DOD roll going to come up for Mike
9988s into another armor swap we're going to
9989s see that F ability already coming back
9991s online trying to get another freeze off
9994s on another whsp off on to AIS we know
9998s his f is burned so we're going to see
10000s him come through with a huge combo off
10003s of the parry and then the one two jump
10005s we do see him pop his ultimate as well I
10007s don't know if that was a misclick there
10009s but oh it looks like we do have a third
10011s party coming through we're going to see
10012s him go for the reset and he gets catches
10014s again we could see the four piece off
10016s spawn for Mike this could be a crazy
10019s elimination coming through here we are
10021s going to see him go with a huge Barry
10023s Mike absolute Insanity here going to
10026s catch the Wisp into the full combo into
10029s the overhead extension gold Focus chuang
10032s very low in HP right now and four
10035s eliminations we're not even 6 minutes
10037s into the game and he's got four kills on
10040s the Belt ug's mic this is that old mic
10044s that we've wanted to see we said we
10046s haven't seen it all season Mike just
10049s came out with a four piece in game
10051s number three oh my good all you can eat
10054s buffet for Mike off spawn nice four P
10056s family meal for him spider now can he
10060s have the same success that Mike has off
10061s spawn on the zipping he's going to get
10064s Upper cuted from Pace weapon swap coming
10066s out with the
10067s katana but tce figher is going to get
10070s the uppercut combo looks for the tech
10072s chase down not able to get a pace able
10074s to fade out creat some space throws that
10076s one charge out gets spider off of him
10078s but spider wants more he's going to be
10080s investing into this completely nice
10082s going to be coming out F3 combo breaks
10084s going to be coming out Pace doesn't get
10085s the sacker that he's looking for spider
10087s taking advantage of this terrain
10088s situation looking for the pressure
10091s staying on top of pace forcing him to a
10093s decision right now will Pace make the
10095s right decision arm's going to be coming
10097s out terrain grief going to come out for
10098s spider not able to land that Focus
10100s attack and Pace fading out Max grapple
10102s distance going to be able to look for an
10103s armor swap is going to get this blue
10104s armor now we're going to round two Pace
10106s versus fighter spider going to be
10108s opening up with the focus attack this
10109s time Pace responding with a focus attack
10111s up for himself and going to be fading
10113s out chilling doesn't want a hard commit
10116s right now but spider wants his
10117s commitment another armor reset for Pace
10120s now on the outside though Wang has been
10122s lurking waiting spider does not care
10124s he's putting on the pressure right now
10125s PA is going to be forced to pop his
10127s ultimate but now in a tough decision
10130s Wang still luring on the outside spider
10132s keeping up the pressure Pace knows he's
10134s all in at this point he has to create an
10136s opening right now he's down an Al he
10138s needs to get at least a kill in this
10140s situation to EST this spider recognizing
10143s this though doesn't want to get all in
10144s from Pace wants to tag in Wang now Wang
10148s an outside bystander is going to have to
10150s put on the pressure if he wants to get
10152s this kill looks like spider is going to
10154s disengage both pace and spider doesn't
10156s want to give the free kill to Wang
10157s sensing the danger
10159s both players are just going to
10162s disengage quick disengage coming through
10165s allowing spider to find himself a purple
10167s hung sword for his back pocket here just
10169s in case he needs to pull off some crazy
10171s combos ug's mic purple staff blue armor
10174s in hand he's got all the gold he could
10177s possibly need going to try and do a
10178s little bit more looting here four
10180s eliminations on the board he doesn't
10182s need to get aggressive with the rest of
10183s this life here he does have an
10185s opportunity to get himself eliminated
10187s and join back into this game but the
10190s safe player right now he doesn't need
10191s any more eliminations in this early game
10193s he's going to try and go for his smooth
10194s transition into the mid game get himself
10197s maybe into a run with gang although he
10198s doesn't need the eliminations the buff
10200s would be nice the gold weapon could be
10203s helpful for him but we're not sure
10206s exactly the play here and it looks like
10207s he is going to be close to a Yang portal
10210s he's going to end up hanging around
10212s there really quickly spider finds Wang
10215s going to go for a one into the jump and
10217s B going to see him try to go for a pair
10219s here dagger versus hung sword and it
10222s looks like Wang going to go for an
10223s uppercut into another grapple bunt into
10226s a third uppercut tries to go for the
10227s jump lmb afterwards isn't going to be
10229s able to connect the big Parry that came
10231s out huge punish damage with spider going
10233s be able to gain most of this back here
10235s pry is going to be given over to wuang
10237s able to get a second uppercut into the
10239s grapple bump into a third uppercut into
10241s the focus attack oh my goodness what a
10244s crazy play coming through we're going to
10245s see the huge Focus coming out as well
10247s from spider but we are going to see the
10249s ultimate getting invested from wuang
10251s wuang one HP and a dream as we're going
10253s to see spider getting eliminated x1's
10256s Wang from the 1 HP perspective able to
10261s take spider out oh my goodness it was a
10265s close one the ultimate invested saving
10267s his life near the very end there able to
10269s play the spacing extremely well and keep
10272s himself in this game that's a cold man
10275s right there even though he messes up the
10277s the terrain uppercut combo he does it
10279s again this time a little bit more
10281s conservative but gets that big punish
10283s off securing the kill on the spider it
10285s was really close Seb that wall end up
10287s coming in clutch spider did everything
10289s he can to win that situation he was
10291s hoping that that light attack would go
10293s through the wall and then woong would
10295s missp it but no no no wuang telling you
10299s wufong is definitely one of the best
10301s fighters in the league right now he's
10303s proving it time and time again and I've
10306s seen a ton of his Yang fights and he had
10309s Mike's number for a little bit we're
10310s saying off spawn and
10313s surprisingly wuang and Mike are both
10315s playing the same character I was usually
10317s Mike has like pretty unique takes on on
10321s which character he plays for each side
10323s but L pick wuang besides the zipping
10326s wufong and Mike have been on the same
10329s pick lately so we're going to have to
10331s see they're going to recognize each
10332s other in these end game doesn't look
10334s like there's a lot of love between these
10335s two they're not willing to play the
10337s family meta out they've been at each
10338s other is next no matter what offs spawn
10340s mid game and even these end games can
10343s they settle their differences and just
10345s and try to secure the win now Mike is in
10347s a really good position to have a pop off
10348s game we'll have to see if you can keep
10349s that momentum off we are going to get
10351s 225 versus Mike a classic can 225 take
10354s the throne this is one of those hype
10356s matchup SS who is going to take it Mike
10359s or 225 can he break the curse right now
10362s we're going to take the disguise Mike
10363s with the arm be looking for the Poké
10365s stack not able to get the overh holds
10367s going to die tap Dodge out he is going
10369s to get 225 to pop that first Parry out
10371s now 225 going to fade away go for the
10373s SCS double clim going to be coming out
10374s both of them want that light attack M
10375s goes with the cross not able to get the
10377s trap with the Parry two25 with a nice
10379s cancel now Mike half charge light going
10381s to be ta doing through hold doing
10383s through looks for the cross Parry not
10384s able to get him but he's going to get
10385s 225 reaching in the cookie jar and 225
10388s is going to get his finger snapped from
10389s him not today 225 we're still going to
10391s have to go back to the ropes Mike going
10393s to secure that first round of Yang good
10396s read on the grapple cancel from that
10398s charge lmb we saw him go for the first
10401s throw and he usually baits out the Parry
10403s but he was able to recognize the fact
10405s that he was going to cancel it out as
10408s able to react and play that perfectly
10410s here as we are going to see it looks
10412s like verse able to get a huge amount of
10415s damage into the uppercut overh hold here
10417s we see chuang cancel the ultimate early
10419s to get his F back and try and kite this
10422s out beautiful freeze coming through
10424s jumping lmb able to come out as well fbx
10426s verse picking up a beautiful elimination
10429s against shuang in this realm of Yang
10432s spear such an intimidating weapon
10436s especially since the changes that
10438s jumping lmb secures so much damage and
10441s the hit stun on it is also very very
10445s menacing and now one of the more favored
10448s weapons in this game the Dual Hollow
10449s Birds versus got a gold pair of them in
10452s hand is ready to strike Mike gold long
10456s sword from his victory in the realm of
10458s Yang long sword being one of those
10459s weapons that on Tami especially when you
10462s have your ultimate and your wisps is a
10465s very very strong weapon we've seen Shu
10467s Jang pull off some triple Carousel
10469s action we've seen some crazy stuff come
10471s out from the long sword and it looks
10472s like ver and Mike are not going to go
10477s for this fight against each other here
10478s we're seeing the Bounty get popped out
10480s Mike getting himself a bounty scroll on
10483s to Chu Jang Chu Jang does have the Yang
10484s depletion so he will willingly take that
10486s fight it's going to be an interesting
10488s one to say Le Star as well with the Yang
10490s depletion trying to close in on
10493s spider uh celestra just home sweet home
10497s for the kiding spider is going to be
10500s falling victim to Star chasing him down
10502s star with 3 minutes 35 seconds for his
10504s Yang needs to find this kill 225 same
10507s boat himself but three actually tuang
10510s three minutes s for him finds 225 with
10513s his bounty on top of him ready has him
10514s down to half Health but the KY be coming
10516s out he gets put in the middle of Mike
10518s and 2 five now he's put into the jle
10520s butang going to pop his ultimate get out
10521s of this middle doesn't want to be mon
10523s through the middle we're sick of this
10524s mik going to pop his ultimate try to
10526s trap him but he's not able to another
10528s player is going to be diving in who is
10529s this it's is it it's Fong he's going to
10531s get put in the uppercut combo combo
10533s extension be coming out Mike with the
10534s folks attack going to put fong in the
10536s reset does he get enough damage for the
10538s kill Fong not even to pop ultimate is
10540s going to fall Mike's going to grab that
10542s so but drop downs coming out of nowhere
10543s first showing up to the party on the
10546s Justina nice job trapping Mike with the
10548s the lmb and gets the uppercut now might
10551s going to Clank out try to get out of the
10552s situation but it's going to fall doesn't
10554s matter the Vermilion buff now verse
10556s going to be sing up some of this juice
10559s coming out with his Rion buff now choang
10561s 2 minutes 15 seconds is going to find
10563s verse doesn't have his ultimate has to
10565s fight a verse Justina one dash going be
10568s coming out we're starting out strong CH
10571s of corruption not that tough right now
10573s has a little bit of room but bur wisely
10575s popping that white heel a little bit
10577s earlier then chuang now is going to have
10578s the pressure of the Zone on his side
10580s Chang now put in a very very tough
10583s position all verse has to do is keep on
10586s some safe pressure but Chang in his last
10588s dying breath gets an uppercut it's not
10590s going to be enough bur is going to
10592s secure the kill and hold on to that
10594s first place who can stop verse right now
10598s nobody can stop verse but nobody can
10601s stop Mike either verse in a bit of
10603s trouble he does have 20 seconds left on
10605s his life and it looks like he might let
10607s Mike get this elimination here seven
10610s kills for Mike right now absolute
10613s Insanity Mike going to go and do a
10615s little bit of looting in the zone we do
10617s see 40 seconds left on that vermilion's
10620s bird buff it was better for vers to just
10622s take the L get eliminated there could
10626s have gotten himself eliminated by The
10627s Zone and went back into this game not
10630s giving Mike that extra elimination but
10632s at this point all that matters is he's
10635s still back into this game here as we are
10637s going to see past with the Yang pass
10639s star trying to contest this has a taken
10642s off all of the shield of pace scale
10645s rushes are going to be coming into play
10646s as star going to try and make something
10648s happen oh my goodness grapple damage
10650s followup connect
10652s onto his jumping lmb beautiful play
10657s coming through here as we going to see
10658s tar investing the ultimate as well
10660s hoping to make a play for this realm of
10662s yank you're going to see the yank has
10665s been opened up star is going to want to
10667s go jump in here pretty quickly but it
10669s looks like all the Yang spots have been
10672s filled oh star is still on Yang
10674s depletion 45 seconds left needs to come
10677s up with some sort of elimination and
10678s he's run into the one player who has
10681s enough kills in this game already you
10683s can go home now Mike you've already got
10685s seven eliminations we're going to see
10687s the uppercut combo start to come out F
10689s ability invested star just throwing blue
10692s after blue right now if anybody jumps
10694s into this fight they have the potential
10695s to pick up this elimination star has 22
10698s seconds left to Come Away with any sort
10700s of elimination he's going to get himself
10702s pared out here and there we go eight
10704s kills before end game Mike is going
10708s absolutely crazy right now ver with four
10710s eliminations on the board is going to be
10712s in the realm of yan here oh my goodness
10714s we see Sky Pillar into jabbing huge
10717s mixup play coming through from ver to be
10719s able to throw AIS off of balance having
10721s all of those soulj is going to make it
10723s very tough for AAS to deal with that
10725s switching over to the gold duel hirts
10726s has in his back pocket as well we're
10728s going to see the pistol shots come out
10729s from both of these players ver just
10731s doing a great job of peppering on the
10732s pressure a has very very low on HP both
10735s of them still with their ultimates
10736s available we're going to see the V1
10737s Justina versus the V2 the freeze is
10740s going to come through not able to
10741s connect verse is going to get hit first
10744s and then AIS hit with the second freeze
10747s verse able to come away victorious in
10749s his second Rumble Yang fight putting him
10751s on five eliminations this is insane B is
10756s going crazy right now ver versus
10759s justtina is absolutely nuts he's
10762s definitely one of the strongest dinas
10764s within the league he's a little bit of a
10766s specialist I would say on justena but
10769s M's going for the record right now both
10771s of these guys are having an absolutely
10774s insane game can will they be denied
10777s though for that first place we'll have
10779s to see how this G is going to go but
10780s this is the first time we've seen the
10782s lobby thin out a lot more and it's due
10785s to the back of just how crazy and how
10788s out out of their minds Mike and verse
10790s are playing that's is what I saying Seb
10792s the first two games warm up games we got
10794s the third game going all gloves are
10797s taking off we got the fist throwing out
10799s everyone is going crazy right now Shuan
10803s five minutes for this Yang depletion can
10805s he find the cure for this Yang depletion
10809s now we have we saw game one a lot of the
10813s players end up having to ice off just
10816s take it in the zone not give up The Kill
10818s but will he go a lot more aggressive
10820s throw caution to the wind we have to
10822s play A Little Bit Stronger look at the
10825s kills all the kills stacked up to vers
10828s and Mike these two are pulling away from
10831s the crowd they the lobby needs to slow
10833s these guys down if they hope to stay
10835s competitive we might be seeing a game
10838s four match point in solos if verse and
10841s Mike are able to keep up this Tempo a
10843s with the pulser going to be chasing down
10845s arano R pulling out the dagger trying to
10847s make his way to a spot the scale rush
10850s but this is the tough part of dagger
10852s it's not very good out in the open for
10854s kiing you need walls to scale rushers
10857s off or else long sword and dual blades
10860s dual Hales are way faster they can close
10863s the distance on flat ground super super
10865s well even the likes of staff and spear
10867s it's very very hard to get away on flat
10869s ground but now that orano has made his
10870s way to the buildings he ice offs the
10872s pressure Cuts noise a little bit he's
10875s able to get a nice uh some space and
10879s gets back to full health now AIS in a
10882s tough position 3 minutes time is taking
10885s P sword not a very ideal weapon to chase
10888s down I really don't know how Kelly is
10890s able to pull it off but chasing some
10893s like a dagger or dual blades or long
10896s sword with P sword it's pretty tough
10899s especially in the in these like heavily
10902s vertical areas with a lot of buildings a
10904s lot of scale Rush opportunity you're
10907s really looking for it some type of
10909s Ambush play you see Shuan setting up for
10911s the skw and you're seeing Pace joining
10912s in the party now five players are
10915s joining this Yang depletion chase down
10918s arano again being hounded by this Yang
10921s depletion this desperation arano just
10923s has to kite this out has to play the
10925s yeran against he can time them out he
10929s knows the exact amount of time that
10931s these players have in order to get this
10933s cure can he survive though everyone is
10936s here now all eight players is showing up
10938s to the party and orano will fall to AIS
10942s a popping that Justino Al now Pace
10945s joining in the party the V2 coming out
10948s both charges already out and now like I
10950s was saying Seb I knew AIS was going to
10952s get a nice third party uh finish off but
10956s he doesn't grab that Yang or that Soul
10959s Bloon to cure his Yang depletion tough
10961s break for him yeah XY was able to pick
10964s up the soul Bloom that was our other
10965s player on Yang depletion so he is going
10968s to be able to survive into this game but
10969s it seems like the target of the lobby
10971s has used that ultimate to be able to
10973s keep himself into this game but now he's
10974s found himself ran into by the likes of
10978s paste who's got some very crazy loot
10982s coming off I see a storm stride Jade as
10984s well play making its way into this game
10986s XY is going to get killed wbg spider
10989s picking up his first elimination of the
10990s match and I don't know who got that Soul
10993s Bloom but everybody crowding into the
10995s corner and it looks like AIS was not
10997s able to get the blo and Cur Yang
10999s depletion he's going to get a bit of
11000s loot from this body though picking
11002s himself up a decent amount of weapons
11004s and loot he's at 30% on the ultimate so
11006s I believe he needs to get a kill very
11010s fast a minute left here it is very
11012s possible here as we are going to see
11013s Mike did not invest the ultimate it was
11016s Rong had the AL invested semi ultimate
11018s going to be coming in trying to save him
11021s here as we're going to see him go into
11022s the zone to try and avoid the enemy
11025s combatants who are jumping into this
11027s fight everybody focusing on to wuang
11030s they know his Al down they know he's low
11031s in HP and now everyone wanting to jump
11034s into this fight AIS the one who needs at
11036s the most spider going to pick up the
11037s elimination and it looks like AIS was
11039s able to get the bloom cira's depletion
11042s with seconds to spare what an insane
11044s play here that looks like the justinas
11046s are going to be teaming up now they were
11048s enemies in the Yang but the Yang
11049s depletion has been cured a back on track
11053s to having a decent placement into this
11055s game he's got one elimination under the
11057s belt spider jumping up to two kills he
11059s was able to pick up two third party
11061s eliminations in that sequence he picked
11063s up the kill on XY and then he picks up
11065s the kill onto Wang Mike still in the
11068s lead with eight eliminations on the
11069s board verse still on top of the overall
11072s scoreboard with five eliminations this
11074s game Pace with one AIS with one
11076s everybody else is dead there's only five
11078s players left this Lobby this game has
11080s been a lot more aggressive than what
11082s we've been used to seeing from game one
11084s and game two so this end game is sure to
11087s be a lot crazier we we got one ZIP we've
11089s got two we've got two justinas one Zing
11093s one Tami and one vda ss1 pace going to
11097s be our lone vaa for the game there's
11100s good chance that it's going to go to our
11102s Justina but given that Mike has so many
11105s eliminations it's almost guaranteed the
11107s MVP going to
11109s him it's going to be tough vers makes a
11111s calculat play as you pointed out SE the
11113s justinas were battling it out a little
11115s bit inside Yang but on the outside vers
11117s no
11118s a good way of securing this is pairing
11121s up with the same character nice cross
11123s pair going to be coming out onto Pace
11125s with the blue buff bur is going to be
11127s investing in them but the blue buff is
11128s not as big of an advantage he just 20%
11130s damage reduction plus the ESP and it
11132s looks like he's taking a ton of pressure
11134s from Pace Pace not going to be fading
11135s out not going to just go out like that
11137s he is going to fight his way out of the
11139s situation forcing out the ultimate from
11140s verse but the V1 the power of V1 is
11143s being able to save those dashes you see
11144s that 40 40% ultimate being saved out by
11147s Bur and now Pace keeping up the pressure
11149s going to go with the spear not able to
11151s get it but jumping up is going to leave
11153s him vulnerable he's going to get caught
11154s on his drop down and verse now returning
11156s the favor putting on the pressure might
11157s going to be going out putting on the
11159s pressure onto Pace Pace with the fade
11162s away Parry for max range he isn't going
11163s to get the par punish though slight
11165s mistake coming out from Pace now the
11166s Zone pressuring him in first Force the
11168s combo break out in a tough situation
11172s right now is he going to want to keep up
11174s the pressure he is risking a lot right
11176s now one of them is wrong here they could
11179s get Focus fired by the lobby but verse
11181s does not care he wants to take advantage
11182s of this buff situation pce though going
11184s to create some space look for the heal
11186s goes with the one charge but bur with
11189s the cross Parry going to catch those
11190s nunchucks reaching right now jum ging
11193s juggled in the air but AIS with the
11195s cannon shot is going to find the kill
11197s steel
11199s AIS just letting verse now like look
11201s we're we're justtina bro like we're
11203s chilling that's a little bit of attacks
11205s of being paired up the other character
11208s May pick up The Kill but verse okay with
11210s it going to keep it going going to keep
11211s leveraging this blue buff keeping up the
11213s pressure and again St we have another
11215s ult up with four people left we're at 5
11219s minutes we're not even close to the end
11221s game right now and we only have four
11223s people already left and they the W key
11226s has been held down this entire game
11228s Nonstop Action we got to we got to check
11231s their keyboards make sure their their uh
11233s their W keys aren't stuck down because
11235s the these players aren't stopping their
11237s forward movements in this game as uh AIS
11240s here on the back end is going to end up
11242s getting himself parried spider going to
11244s flip over to the nunchucks for a one
11246s charge with the r with the RMB AIS now
11250s in a bit of trouble very very low in HP
11253s tried to do what fpx verse was doing and
11256s is going to end up getting himself
11258s eliminated three players left in the
11260s lobby now it's spider on three Mike on
11264s eight and verse on five eliminations if
11268s Mike is able to get himself a first
11270s place finish the kill multiplier is
11272s going to be so devastating for all of
11276s these other players it's going to make
11277s it difficult for anybody to be able to
11279s come out on top vers focusing out Mike
11282s as it looks like spider just waiting in
11284s the wings the one two is going to be
11285s coming out on to oh huge Parry from Mike
11289s into the 1.0 release is going to be able
11291s to avoid any followup damage from spider
11294s and get himself out of Harm's Way verse
11296s now taking a second turn reset he
11298s doesn't want the smoke from spider or
11302s Mike anymore he got himself parried he
11304s needs to take a second to breathe he is
11306s just going to back off we're seeing all
11307s of these players start their journey
11310s into this final Circle here three
11314s players left spider Mike and verse the
11316s top three players Mike and spider were
11319s five and six on the leaderboard at the
11321s start of this game and now they're two
11323s and three it's crazy how one game can
11326s completely change the outcome of the
11327s score board and that's why we play to
11329s all of the games ladies and gentlemen
11331s it's not over till it's over Mike verse
11334s and spider the head-to-head to head
11336s battle Justina zeping Tami it it's going
11339s to be a crazy End Circle I think if
11342s spider is able to hold on to his Al for
11345s as long as possible and gets it off at
11347s just the right time controlling the End
11349s Circle he's going to take it but if Mike
11352s is able to get a perfectly done ultimate
11355s off with the Tei old he's going to have
11357s so much control over the Zone it's going
11358s to render these Justina dashes
11361s obsolete you saying earlier that it's a
11365s chance that you can end by game four if
11369s Mike wins this game with these two kills
11371s he could go up the match point already I
11373s don't think verse has enough even with
11375s the two points and a win to push there
11377s but it's really close I think if either
11380s of them get a two-piece here we could be
11382s at Match Point already now I still think
11385s it's pretty unlikely for them to secure
11387s the just because the lobby is very
11390s conscientious once someone gets on Match
11392s Point they don't let people just win
11393s outright right there everyone Scouts
11396s pretty heavily and figures out who was
11398s the winner or who was on Match Point to
11400s make sure they get focused out in
11401s endgame but we've seen people put on
11404s really really good costumes describe the
11405s situation we do have a justtina a Tami a
11408s zipping zipping definitely one of the
11409s favorites to win this type of situation
11412s but Tami makes it a wild card and
11416s Justina ends up being kind kind of like
11418s a Matari she can stall in midair so I'm
11420s wondering if Mike and verse put the
11423s pressure on the spider or they do just
11425s take get the heal off now that 1.2
11428s multiplier is really really big I'm
11432s wondering if Mike has some burn items
11434s here and that's why he's willing to
11435s stall this out the same thing with verse
11437s but do they have like a cannon or
11439s something in the in the in their Jade to
11443s make sure that they can put that rupture
11445s Gale burn on cuz if not it looks like
11448s spiders will take this first and deny
11450s that 1.2 multiplier but still I mean you
11454s can't really Force out the situation
11455s right now everyone is at a stalemate if
11458s anyone commits in this spot you probably
11460s will end up getting third for this first
11462s all first to lose in these type of
11463s situations we'll have to see what who
11466s can take this now I never personally
11469s like Seb when there's a temi going into
11471s this last little bit just cuz you're at
11473s the mercy of his Tempo wherever he
11475s decides and when he puts that wall you
11477s don't really have counterplay for it at
11479s least on zipping side you can use your
11483s uh your ultimate to Tang the situation
11485s but you're basically going to be a
11486s punching back now Dina has a little bit
11488s of counterplay cuz she can go straight
11489s up but as the Zone closes you're not
11491s going to have much now as this is going
11493s down M looks like he's going to try to
11494s hold out the side try to stay out the
11496s middle just throwing out some light
11497s attack into tap Dodge trying to hold his
11499s ground but stanid coming out from bur he
11501s is going to use his ultimate to push
11502s everyone out the t's going to be coming
11504s down cutting the last little bit might
11505s going to sit inside his wind wall get to
11507s stagger off and like I was saying spider
11509s going to be a punching bag in the middle
11511s Mike puts the F down right in the dead
11512s center keeping that nice pressure going
11515s out Mike's going to go he's going to get
11517s silenced by ver B going to get a nice
11519s shle onto both he's going to get the
11520s twopiece going to the end oh my God ver
11523s is going to secure the win an unlikely
11526s situation first can capitalize it and
11528s you see him popping off he knows that
11531s round was huge and he's going to keep on
11534s that first place and keep it Trucking
11536s will he be on Match Point s ver you
11539s dirty dog oh my goodness I don't know
11545s exactly the scoring of the points to see
11548s if he'll be able to make it he gets the
11550s three placement points he'll get the
11552s multiplier he finishes with seven
11555s eliminations I don't see how Mike got
11557s the MVP I don't I'm not 100% sure how
11560s Mike was able to come away with the MVP
11562s there we're going to take a look um I
11564s believe ver was able to come away with
11566s it unless uh we we'll take a look in a
11570s second here but uh I believe that they
11573s are going to be recalculating here cuz
11575s uh oh no I guess Mike is going to be the
11579s MVP for game number three wow those
11583s eight kills the amount of work that Mike
11585s put in absolutely crazy it looks like
11589s Mike is in disbelief of it himself he's
11591s looking he's like look it it's my face
11593s it's not versus what's going on here but
11595s wow the ability to hold out and get the
11598s double freeze into the Silence from the
11602s Sky Pillar and then running it over full
11605s overhead combo gold focused nobody has F
11609s nobody has alt you're in the storm
11611s you're taking a lot of damage you have
11613s the most amount of HP because these
11615s other two players have been going at it
11616s it looked like Mike was going to be able
11617s to do it for a while he caught spider in
11619s the Wisp sending him back into the Zone
11621s but the Zone tick was so strong dealing
11623s so much damage to Mike verse was left to
11625s his own devices for a little bit they
11627s left him unchecked he popped out and
11629s said freeze both of y'all and you guys
11631s are going to be gone seven eliminations
11634s first place finished we're going to have
11635s to take a look at this scoreboard in a
11637s second to see who got the MVP I I'm not
11639s 100% convinced it was Mike cuz that was
11642s wow just what a crazy
11644s play I agree SE I I'm not 100% convinced
11648s it was Mike either but Justina for these
11651s end games I I think
11652s lowy from what I've seen there's
11655s definitely some tricks versus figured
11657s out for the heal off situations I think
11660s in the past we never really thought of
11662s Justina as one of the best endgame
11665s players but from what I'm seeing verse
11667s is proving uh it very differently it
11670s looks like
11672s Mike even though he doesn't take the MVP
11676s The Nine Kills he does get the last hit
11678s off onto spider so that's what allows
11680s him to secure and he gets
11682s that3 ahead of ver big clutch up coming
11687s out from the goat Mike a nine kill game
11690s I I believe he's probably going to set
11691s the record for the day and that's
11693s probably one of the highest kills for an
11694s nvpl finals under the new current rule
11697s set it's a lot harder to get kills than
11699s it was before in the past but verse
11701s still spectacular game on justtina with
11703s six kills spider as well making it this
11705s end game AIS doing super well too Pace
11708s Wang shenan arano start Fong Chang or
11712s not chosing all able to get that one
11714s kill but for the first time we're seeing
11716s a little bit of a p pull away SE Mike
11718s and verse pulling away from the lobby
11721s differentiating themselves from everyone
11722s else doing super super well and I'm very
11725s curious how this leader board is going
11726s to be stacking in at the bottom we got
11728s star at 4.3 Rano in 11th at 8.6 a shenan
11733s at 9.1 Pace at 9.1 AIS at 9.9 and Fong
11737s at
11738s 10.4 kind of where you expect them to be
11741s with their uh preposed points but at the
11743s top first still holding the the lead
11747s Leed and I believe match points at 26
11750s almost gets the match point by this and
11752s Mike skyrockets up with that one pop off
11756s game can they these two make it to that
11759s match point by game four we'll have to
11762s see and you're seeing that big distance
11764s between spider chuang wuang and
11767s T225 six points the closest being spider
11771s to the top but man burst has actually
11775s been in the top three before in the past
11777s s so seeing him pop off right now even
11781s though he wasn't uh dominating going in
11784s to nvpl finals he had the fighting
11787s ability and I guess tying in and
11790s cleaning up a lot of the OS has set him
11792s up pretty for this
11794s situation yeah I'm I'm still
11797s dumbfounded on
11799s how the elimination at the very end went
11804s over to Mike the ninth elimination as we
11808s are going to take a look at Mike's
11809s highlight reel here brought to you by
11810s Thunder robot we do see how he was able
11813s to pick up all nine of his kills he gets
11815s four off the rip wins his Yang to five
11819s tg2 five not having the greatest game
11821s there finished with a donut on this game
11823s he was able to take Fong out Fong trying
11825s to come in for a cheeky third part he
11827s was able to pick up one kill but at the
11828s cost of his life Star on the Yang
11831s depletion got himself parried and called
11833s it a day there unfortunate for him to go
11836s out that way and then we're taking a
11837s look at past in the realm was able to
11839s catch the back end into a jumping lmb
11842s coming away with a beautiful elimination
11843s and then we see spider onto Wang and
11846s then spider onto AIS and here we go into
11849s this final Circle here we see him get
11851s the silence off goes for the Neer and
11854s then
11856s I Mike gets the kill on the spider
11860s what that's insane ladies and gentlemen
11863s the last hit of damage oh the storm
11866s stride that's that's what it is it's got
11869s to be the storm Stride Right
11871s Raven we'll have to see whether or not
11873s Mike had storm stride here I looks like
11875s it doesn't didn't have storm stride bar
11879s fire RS he a lot of burn that's what I
11881s was saying he had assault poison spash I
11883s think it was a poison
11884s Splash oh he goes down and that last
11888s tick he ends up being the last one to to
11891s hit him as the Zone kills him wow right
11894s right idea different Jade poison Splash
11896s definitely one of the Hidden
11898s gems uh and finesses that you can do in
11900s these end games poison Splash end up
11902s being s tier four heel off situations
11905s but still what a crazy off spawn set
11909s from Mike we're seeing that vintage Mike
11911s coming out where he just absolutely
11913s sauces everyone and it's on the back of
11916s Tami Tami still one of the best dueling
11920s characters out there especially uh
11923s because into this modern araka one of
11926s the only ways you can guarantee a solid
11928s reset is actually a Tami old it's one of
11930s the reasons that I personally like tamy
11932s back back when I first started the
11934s rocket Tami was one of my first
11935s characters CU I realized that tamy Walt
11937s was so useful but it's also that combo
11940s break said he's able to go back to back
11943s to back to back vers many great Fighters
11946s because of that combo break for the TMI
11949s it it has the shortest cool down out of
11952s all of the combo breaks in the game it
11954s also doubles down as a combo extension
11957s so after you combo break the pressure
11959s still is not over if your opponent makes
11961s a mistake by throwing a Parry or you get
11963s your your stagger off you're going to be
11965s able to extend it into the moon for that
11969s nice reset with the whisp and we're
11971s seeing Mike put on a clinic normally we
11973s see Wang doing it but now Mike with the
11975s monster Tami coming out big for this
11978s game and I'm still dumbfounded the
11980s poison Splash MVP at the end there and
11983s you can see the look on versa's face
11985s when he knows he hasn't won the game the
11988s very end it and that's got to be like
11991s you're you're doing so well you think
11992s you've got it in the bag and then all of
11994s a sudden something like poison Splash is
11997s going to impede you from getting that
11999s but ladies and gentlemen we're going to
12000s go to a quick interview and we'll be
12002s right back with the rest of our

12313s w
12317s he
12353s w
12404s oh
12407s oh
12437s let
12467s n
12502s ladies and
12504s gentlemen Raven and I are back again
12508s game number four is about to get
12509s underway Master analyst Master screamer
12513s in the game Raven's the analyst I'm the
12516s screamer and we're going to be jumping
12518s into game number four of our summer
12520s split finals for the solos here in just
12523s a moment but wow we had an incredible
12525s game three and we've got some pretty
12527s crazy opportunities for some of these
12529s players Raven why don't you walk us
12531s through some of what these possibilities
12534s could be happening with these next
12535s couple of
12536s games well we're pretty close to match
12539s points that only a couple points off
12540s from verse and verse is screaming with
12544s momentum right now he is absolutely on
12547s fire now right on his back as well Mike
12551s on fire as well and on the on right on
12554s his heel is spider now it's a pretty big
12558s difference between these three players
12560s though and the rest of the lobby
12561s normally we've
12563s seen everyone kind of be very very neck
12566s to neck we've see mainly five or six
12567s players going into that match point but
12570s I don't know if verse and Mike are going
12572s to be able to hold it like I was saying
12573s before I don't think anything has
12575s necessarily changed of how competitive
12578s this Lobby is everyone's really heated
12580s up right now Mike we're we're the only
12583s thing that I'd have to say though Mike
12585s with momentum is a scary for us we were
12588s talking about T225 a little bit earlier
12590s we've never seen him with momentum
12592s before can he keep it up but we saw the
12595s likes of Mike just evaporate him walks
12598s to everyone that vintage Mike just
12602s walking down the lobby now even though
12605s Mike did super super well we cannot take
12608s away the spotlight from verse coming up
12610s big and showing crazy consistency today
12615s now in the r instance I didn't think the
12619s tournament would end any earlier just
12621s because of how close the lobby is but if
12624s verse and Mike have another really
12626s really big game and get to match point
12628s does the lobby
12630s adjust and uh do they adjust and slow
12635s them down I don't know Seb I I feel like
12638s the freight train might be moving too
12640s fast for the rest of everyone to slow
12642s these two
12643s down and even if they don't win their
12646s match point games there's still so many
12649s points Above the Rest of the lobby that
12652s if it comes down to game eight if they
12654s keep playing the way that they are
12656s they're going to win by default anyways
12658s and ladies and gentlemen winning is also
12661s possible for you guys at home because
12662s you guys could win some free stuff all
12664s you got to do link your Twitch account
12666s to the your nraa account and earn the
12669s free rewards you're going to be watching
12671s for a few hours link it up and get some
12674s free stuff make sure to redeem it it's
12676s all always good to have more things in
12678s your nraa
12680s inventory free stuff always really
12684s really nice St especially when it comes
12686s to pro league a lot of really cool gifts
12688s were given out this season now looking
12693s at uh moving forward the rest of the
12697s rounds pedor is coming back up now the
12700s first pedoro we saw a lot of
12702s conservatism uh we saw this time
12705s everyone really opened up there wasn't
12707s really an end game like we've seen the
12710s previous three games everyone Came Out
12712s Swinging and we saw the later phase
12716s characters atmi and Justina do super
12719s well normally we're accustomed to seeing
12722s like two or three characters dominate
12724s The Meta but something that's changed
12727s right before going to Worlds that I I
12729s would say that a lot of characters are
12732s viable right now there isn't a huge Edge
12736s for each character nraa has been around
12738s for so long that a lot of these
12739s characters have been pushed to their
12741s absolute limits and I've been saying for
12744s a while something that's very very new
12746s that's never existed is the variety of
12750s characters in a Lobby there's a lot of
12752s unique situations when you have all
12754s these abilities and ultimates mixing
12756s together for you to find some
12759s interesting plays we're seeing in that
12761s endgame we thought normally you would
12763s see that spot right you would see
12765s zipping dominate that situation she play
12768s the heal off really really well tank a
12770s lot of the damage and just win based on
12773s uh using the Zone against their
12775s opponents but we see perfect play coming
12777s out from Mike chopping up that end game
12779s up with the Teo making that last Circle
12782s super super small using that all to chop
12785s it in half and then using the F putting
12786s it on the ground making sure there's
12788s nowhere safe for anyone to hold inside
12790s the Zone unfortunately for both of them
12793s we're seeing justtina stall out like
12795s Matari and we see verse come in with the
12797s clutch finding that last hit now
12799s surprise surprise we see the poison
12800s Splash being the true MVP getting that
12803s last hit but this is what I was saying
12804s said like these end games are so
12807s meticulous now I love me some good
12811s strategy when it comes to these end
12812s games and all these guys are being
12815s pushed to the absolute limit now moving
12818s forward I feel like we're still going to
12820s go to this in Seb but I could be wrong
12822s look at verse man he is looking dialed
12825s in and I can't I can't even though was
12829s verse is leading right now we can never
12830s count out the goat Mike is showing up
12832s big today it looks like he's on
12834s four yeah if if we see another crazy
12838s game from Mike with eight plus kills
12840s four kills in the early game it it's
12843s going to be pretty much over before game
12846s number six it verse needs I think two
12849s points is to get up to match point Mike
12853s needs four they don't need to have crazy
12855s games like they did last game all they
12857s need to do is put an average number of
12859s points up onto the board to get them on
12861s the match point and then go crazy in
12864s game number five and it's a real
12866s possibility of that
12868s happening these other players that are
12871s in positions 3 four five and six are
12873s almost 10 points away from catching up
12877s with Mike and verse and this is a huge
12881s deficit that we haven't seen at all in
12883s the season all of these points are
12885s usually so close usually we get to see
12890s battles to the very end with these
12892s players but now these two have broken
12894s away from the pack and if they're able
12897s to keep the consistency up their
12898s momentum will take them
12901s completely away from the rest of these
12904s players K's
12906s tt25 strong
12908s start slow game two and no points in
12912s game number three very unfortunate to
12914s see that happen hopefully tt25 can pick
12917s it up and come back but it is going to
12920s be very difficult especially with the
12922s fact that two players are so close to
12924s match point jl's AIS someone who did
12927s pretty decent last game but did end up
12930s getting out jused in the realm of Yang
12932s and got focused out pretty quickly when
12935s that final Circle came to a close by the
12938s other players spider was able to pick up
12940s that elimination giving himself three
12942s kills into that
12944s game bong Fong had a great game too he
12948s mvpd game number two but hasn't put up
12951s much since we didn't see anything from
12953s him in game one game two he had a couple
12955s of eliminations but ended up risking his
12957s life for a third party In the Zone and
12960s fell to the likes of a oow or OU's Mike
12965s we are going to see those trading cards
12966s coming out again spider going to be
12969s picking vaa not 100% sure if these are
12972s accurate pickings from his coach who's
12974s uh displaying the
12976s character behind him we did see the zp
12979s pick come out to be the one that he was
12982s picking I'm not 100% sure if he's doing
12984s that just to throw people off but uh
12987s it's a fun little thing is uh we'll see
12988s if he picks the vda getting to go onto
12991s our third round selection this time will
12993s be with spider and verse first round is
12995s going to go to sha Yuan and star arono
12998s and Chu Jang picking up the second
13001s fourth round going to go to Mike and
13002s Fong fifth to AIS and Fong last round to
13006s Pace in T225 back on pedor we're going
13010s to see what the double picks might start
13011s coming out here Mike has been known to
13015s sometimes double pick
13017s The Zing but we're going to have to see
13021s how it's going to play out hoty Tami for
13024s XY and star this is the first time that
13026s they have been separate in their
13027s pickings we're going to see the double
13029s Liam lock in for arano and shuang the
13032s second pick has always been Liam so far
13035s jumping into into this third round of
13036s selection verse already with the Tami
13039s lock they saw how strong Mike was on the
13041s Tami they don't want to let him play it
13043s again
13045s spider going to lock in the vda the
13048s cards were right looks like his coach is
13050s giving a a little sneak peek to the
13052s strategy before we're jumping into these
13054s games Spider going to be very hard to
13058s deal with on that vda Mike and Ruf on
13060s the fourth round selection are going to
13062s be Wong on the vda Mike on the vda well
13066s spider Mike and wufong on the vaa that's
13068s a dangerous Trio to see in the end game
13070s Raven that's tough break if those three
13073s make it to end game vda is definitely
13076s taking this for sure those guys will
13079s cover each other to guarantee the heal
13081s off situation for them this says vaa is
13083s an absolute Menace In end game the
13085s problem is though everyone knows it so
13088s she ends up getting picked off very
13090s easily uh her bubble doesn't really give
13092s her safety to get that heal off and
13095s neither does her it doesn't really
13096s create space it's really good at tanking
13099s and dragging someone else through the
13101s mud but you don't really have that
13102s ability like hottie like Justina to be
13104s able to salvage ultimate zipping all
13107s these characters can salvage their
13108s ultimate by pressing it and then just
13110s canceling a little bit later once they
13112s feel they've created some safe distance
13114s but interesting play by these three I I
13116s believe this is an audible from them
13118s noticing that vda wasn't pick and we've
13120s seen her somewhere in phase four say
13123s phase four and five where she's been
13125s being picked for these Grand
13127s finals on pdor very very open area uh
13133s and if you're able to hold your ground
13135s hea situations do happen a lot right now
13138s I'm curious to see whether or not the
13140s lobby place is fast again now they did
13143s see Mike go very very big so I feel like
13148s the lobby is going to respond to that
13150s they're going to see that they're going
13152s to have a sense of urgency and a little
13154s bit of inspiration all of these guys are
13158s capable of having a big round now a nine
13161s kill game is pretty insane we haven't
13164s seen that big of a kill round in a long
13166s time so but if Mike can do it I know all
13170s these guys are going to believe that
13171s they can do the same thing so I think
13174s the lob is going to still continue
13175s playing fast especially on purdya
13178s there's not kind of like holth where it
13181s feels like you can run away very well
13184s because of the pois there a lot of
13185s building a lot of good terrain
13186s situations but when you leave the pois
13189s you're very very exposed so the Zone
13192s pulls in a way when you get caught out I
13195s can see the lobby getting thin out very
13197s very quickly we'll have to see how these
13199s off spawns go again Raven something that
13203s we we we missed for a second there but I
13206s noticed at the last second before the
13207s screen ran away aano is running Liam
13211s V2 Pokéball strategy something that we
13215s haven't seen in the mvpl for quite some
13217s time we did get to see it in the
13220s EU uh scrims a lot the EU qualifiers we
13224s saw uh Taki with the fan doing some
13227s absolutely amazing plays coming out
13230s there uh we saw a couple other players
13232s running it in the na and EU scrims but
13235s we haven't seen too much of it come to
13238s its full fruition of the combo in the
13242s mvpl so I'm really excited to see how is
13246s going to play with the
13247s V2 it was used in Immortal War a lot
13251s just cuz of the guaranteed big damage
13253s combo you could do off of it but once
13256s people learn how to work around it it
13258s kind of phased out within the pro league
13261s I'm curious it it's kind of like a a
13263s trump card out of nowhere a gimmick that
13265s no I don't think anyone's going to be
13267s expecting ver going come out with a slap
13268s down onto Mike can Mike have that same
13270s pressure off spawn we're getting them
13272s one and two off spawn verse throwing
13274s those slaps out Mike trying to whip
13276s punch it not able to get it but he's
13277s going to catch the tap Dodge away first
13279s for to come come out with a combo break
13281s but Mike's going to get the Stagger with
13282s the long sword tough situation for verse
13285s right now long sword not one of those
13287s weapons you want to be fighting against
13288s when you don't have a weapon it's just
13290s Tech Chase is too good tooth pick 211 is
13292s going to be coming out jumping lb into
13295s the half charge em covering
13297s everything not letting burst out and
13299s mice going to keep that dominance off
13300s he's going to get a nice Harry on to
13303s Fong going to get that big damage off
13306s with the lmb folks attack avoiding the
13307s coma break of a Fong and now Fong
13309s getting a ton of pressure from 225 mik
13311s going to slow it down pop the heal get
13314s topped off and keep down this hunt are
13316s we going to see another four piece off
13319s Spawn from
13321s Mike no armor to the name drop down
13323s Focus second to come out from 225
13325s waterfall fighting I've been waiting for
13326s a fight on this spot set for a while
13328s this spot super super Scenic
13330s unfortunately it's going to be the
13332s scenic route to Fong's death wait I
13335s spoke to D Tesla also going to be coming
13336s out Mike and 225 going to get pressured
13338s out and fox going to make his way up to
13341s the top and going to get a heal look at
13343s that view Seb isn't that pretty I've
13345s been waiting for a fight here for a
13347s while it's very cinematic and I I love
13350s the the Drone shot of the outside as we
13353s we see them climbing and scaling the
13356s waterfall it is a very beautiful area
13358s the the work that they've done on this
13360s Petoria map as uh as difficult as a lot
13363s of these players find it to play it is
13365s undoubtedly one of the most beautiful
13369s maps that I've ever seen in a video game
13371s and agre it it's just so well done as we
13374s are going to be taking our fights over
13376s ewg's arano the V2 Liam going to be
13380s coming out we don't get to see the alt
13382s com out just yet but it is going to be
13384s AIS on the Matari going to be able to
13386s get the 1.0 off with the fan trying to
13388s go into uppercut scale Rush is going to
13389s connect here trying to go for the one
13390s two over we are going to see the scale
13392s Rush come out again trying to keep the
13395s chase up Rano finding himself an armor
13397s swap is going to be able to kite this
13398s out for a little bit longer we do see
13400s purple dual HDs in hand but the scale
13402s rush into the f is going to connect F
13405s ability going to be invested as well for
13406s Rano he's just trying to kite out enough
13408s time tell his ultimate is going to be
13410s back online AIS finding himself a blue
13412s armor swap going to jump back into the
13413s fight resets all around for both of them

13419s getting himself pared quite often today
13422s going to be over onto his weapon of
13423s choice the dagger now fun with the Parry
13425s of his own back onto the fist blades
13427s stone form going to be proed isn't going
13429s to go for the Parry doesn't fall for the
13430s bait two jumping lmbs three jumping lmbs
13432s F ability invested to stop
13435s the barrage of jumping lmbs coming
13438s through T25 does have alt available 11
13440s seconds left on cool down he's got to
13442s make sure he doesn't get caught into a
13444s combo here as we are going to see the
13445s Tessa charm come out as the ultimate is
13447s going to be coming through here we are
13449s going to see now Tesla charm is going to
13451s get proed one HP in a dream now for gg25
13454s is going to make himself
13456s back into the air finds himself one
13459s armor pot he's going to try and go for a
13461s three charge onto Fong Fong able to back
13463s out of this quickly the jumping lmb is
13465s coming through again stone form proc
13466s does not come away with the first Focus
13469s attack but the followup damage is going
13470s to connect p25 very low in HP here just
13474s trying to kite out throws an attack but
13477s the jump lmbs are going to reain
13480s Victorious one of the most versatile
13481s attacks the tracking on it so much
13485s tracking that you're able to jump lmbb
13488s hit your opponent from far and the
13490s damage is just Unstoppable wbg spider
13494s with that vulpine Essence Soul Jade is
13497s going to have that 1,000 HP mortal
13501s Defiance in his back pocket just in case
13505s it's always something that you'd like to
13507s have we're going to take a look at a
13508s little bit of a replay here looks like
13510s asc's XY got in a little battle with the
13513s spider here as we do know the out of
13515s this we're going to see the ultimate
13517s come out it's not looking too good for
13518s spider but the toothpick is going to
13521s turn into the uppercut combo into the P
13523s sword swap into the grapple bump back
13525s into a carousel spider what are you
13528s doing oh my goodness that was amazing
13531s clean up on aisle four spider just
13535s mopping the floor with Shuan just
13538s claiming the red jade for himself I I
13541s was wondering for a while why the top
13544s three don't challenge the red J it gives
13546s you such a huge end Edge for that first
13549s R Yang you see spider I've always
13553s thought spiders long sword was one of
13554s the best in the league and with the new
13556s Carousel against walls you're seeing how
13559s much pressure you're able to generate
13560s off the wall but going back to the money
13562s spot another person going into Fong's
13565s territory we saw T5 fall to the jumping
13567s lmbs from Fong now star looking for a
13570s reset unfortunately going running into a
13573s purple weapon Fong but nice shift Parry
13576s coming out from Star able to steal the
13577s weapon and get an UT combo now f for
13579s ride 1 2 three crouching lmb into the
13581s one two big poke damage coming out to
13583s Fong Fong under a ton of pressure not
13585s able to create some space now going to
13587s his Trident true his dagger does star
13589s have that chase down enough to the hold
13591s bong down it doesn't look like he wants
13594s to chase down he's willing to take this
13595s reset he's happy to just survive this
13597s situation get the purple armor but now
13599s with the full reset coming back in nice
13600s max range R&B with the fist going to be
13602s coming out one two three again bog now
13604s put into same situation not able to get
13607s away he's going to opt to just let
13608s himself get taken down cuz with if he
13611s held his life for a little bit longer he
13613s wouldn't have gotten that reset Smart
13615s heads up play coming out from Fong but
13617s unfortunately for him he gets robbed of
13619s all of his juice right there blue armor
13622s and purple weapon that's stuff
13624s forong yeah it's very unfortunate to see
13627s that happen here as we are going to see
13628s our first player fully eliminated from
13630s the game it's going to be x1's woong
13632s very unfortunate he started up on top
13635s today and has not been able to
13638s perform we're going to see chuang
13640s eliminating him here as well as we're
13642s going to see a bit of a replay coming
13644s out it looks like Mike versus AIS AIS is
13648s going to get comboed jumping lmb jumping
13650s lmb jumping lmb jumping lmb jumping lmb
13654s and another jumping lmb oh you Jes oh my
13660s goodness taking us oh you Mike taking

13670s just like staff up it's just people are
13672s just getting taken if you're in ever in
13674s a Terrain situation you don't want to be
13677s on the downhill cuz it's just a roller
13680s coaster combo that you're going just get
13681s put into as long as your
13684s opponent gets you lifted you don't know
13687s when you're going to be touching the
13688s ground next you're going
13691s skydiving yeah pack your bags it's a
13693s one-way ticket back to the lobby the
13695s jump be chain absolutely insane just
13700s over and over and over again Mike with
13702s an incredible play looks like he's going
13704s to be facing off against te star but
13706s we're watching wbg spider versus a as's
13710s XY pistol shots raining from both of
13713s them blue pistols in hand for the both
13714s of them we're going to see the scale
13715s Rush coming through into the focus
13717s attack but the focus is going to come
13719s through from XY into the uppercut combo
13721s F ability going to be invested for XY on
13724s the T scal Rush going to come through
13726s spider scale Rush is going to be the one
13728s to make it through we're going to see
13729s the ultimate coming out now charge
13731s coming through from XY we going to see
13733s the Sal come out now was able to get the
13736s F off before the Wisp did too much
13737s damage wisp getting thrown again spider
13740s going to burn through trying to get
13742s himself away but does end up getting
13744s caught into the attack again gets caught
13747s back into the Wisp ultimate has gone
13749s down but for both of them as well spider
13752s and xy's all both going down
13754s simultaneous L he wasn't able to
13756s continue the combo decided to back off
13757s and go for a bit of a reset spider now
13760s back on the playing field is going to
13762s get a huge Parry here picking up those
13764s fist blades and going for the guaranteed
13766s damage without the F ability not going
13768s for the full punish we do see the P
13770s sword in the back pocket as well that we
13772s saw him go and weapon swap to earlier
13774s jumping lmb going to come out dealing a
13776s bit of Chip damage we're going to see
13777s him turn the ability so he doesn't get
13779s parried on the focus attack here we're
13781s going to see him go for a one jump lmb
13783s beautiful Tech coming through another
13784s jump lmb is going to connect goes back
13786s for another jumping lmb as we see oh my
13789s goodness the P sword swap into the scale
13792s Rush is going to deal so much damage
13793s trying to get one last hit off the Clank
13796s is going to do it and XY goes back to
13798s the soul alter and spider wins the real
13800s yank wait a second spider looking nice
13805s and fluid here like water shifting
13808s between the fist blades the PO Sword and
13810s the long sword he's just blowing through
13812s the Parry just nice and comfortable
13815s I thought he was going to fish for that
13817s nice against the wall uh weapon swap
13819s combo but he just takes a fist and just
13821s FL out wins neutral my man has no
13823s shortcomings anymore now we're going to
13825s get Mike popping in the ultimate versus
13826s Pace Canon shots going to be coming out
13829s Mike one of the ball is in the lobby he
13831s doesn't want to fall right now but he
13833s wants to keep up the pressure find
13834s another kill onto Pace I believe he's
13836s already up to three kills right now he
13838s does have ailion buff though he can take
13840s this risk AO be coming out with Pace's
13843s F2 oh my good goodness Al going to be
13846s coming out Cliff side is going for a
13848s ride big pounds com out Mike bye-bye
13851s flying up bur with the drop down is
13853s going to catch him with a focus Tack and
13854s now Mike not able to get away the the
13857s pounce is just too much he will fall not
13860s be able to find a kill but vers coming
13861s up big with the flank both these guys
13863s neck to neck 24.4 on ver 23.5 on Mike
13868s but star going to get that kill again
13870s though tough position for Star you see
13872s him press he didn't he wasn't able to
13874s get that Soul blo right now but and
13875s verse going to be going at it right now
13876s T going to be invested by verse me into
13879s the jump cancel trying to create some
13880s space but verse is going to get that
13881s grapple kick he's going to get the reset
13883s oh he doesn't get the F reset nice job
13885s from Pace able to take advantage put out
13887s those folks s nice but shenu one on the
13889s t double Tami going to be going down
13890s onto Pace not in the best situation the
13893s Tami Bros putting on the pain with the
13896s whisp and now star going to be jumping
13898s in he's going to get cannibalized by
13901s T225 with that Hong sword and ver is
13903s going to slow down take a Gander at the
13906s possible people coming in but we're
13908s going to get spider to the north hoot
13911s against the wall by bu does arano have
13914s the V2 Seb orano does have the
13918s V2 we are going to see arano now is
13921s going to get a huge Parry off getting
13923s those golden fist blades away spider is
13925s going to get his life back as he did
13928s have Vermilion bird might but he will
13930s lose those gold fist blades one of his
13933s Superstar powers that he was going to be
13934s using to try and gain some putting into
13936s this
13938s game we're now jumping in Star back into
13940s the mix of this fight and asc's XY very
13942s very low on HP it looks like arano and
13944s XY were both able to get some blooms but
13947s XY is going to go down AIS picking up
13949s the elimination star trying to come away
13951s with the soul Blom looks like he wasn't
13952s able to pick it up and now star with
13954s only 40 seconds left he going to try and
13956s make his way for an elimination he's
13958s focusing all of his energy onto fbx ver
13961s ver just trying to kite this out as fast
13964s as possible now the third part is
13965s jumping into these fights here out out
13968s of ultimate now star going to try and
13970s continue to give Chase with only 23
13973s seconds left this could be bad for him
13975s here it looks like arano going to be
13976s able to get some chip damage in both of
13978s these players could go out right now and
13979s it's whoever goes out first this could
13981s be trouble pace is going to get
13983s eliminated verse still in this game with
13985s one HP to spare can't go into the Zone
13988s he's going to have to scale around but
13990s everybody chasing him and T225 picking
13992s up the elimination no match point for
13996s verse and Mike with three eliminations
13999s the closest to match point now he needs
14001s two more points so he's got to survive
14003s or he's got to get a couple more
14004s eliminations and it looks like he's
14006s ready to do it verse needed to have a
14008s game here where it it was this was the
14011s game that counted the most but he wasn't
14012s able to pick up the kill on past he
14014s wasn't able to pick up the kill on XY he
14016s couldn't get the kill onto star he was
14019s struggling the entire game to get
14021s eliminations while Mike has still been
14023s thriving and now we're going to see it
14025s come to full fruition if Mike's able to
14027s get on Match
14029s Point oh my goodness when Mike is on
14033s fire right now can anyone stop the goat
14037s we're G have to see oh my God got Mike
14041s versus spider this is going to be big
14043s there's one person who could possibly
14046s slow down Mike it might be spider but
14048s Mike has a gold dagger hand on the
14049s father this be a time out Mike with a
14051s figh with a double hold do looking for
14052s the drop down he going get the half
14054s charge light pushed into bubble though
14055s dagger versus long sword tough match up
14057s right now Mike goes with the scale
14059s through gets a light attack but spider
14061s not going to fall for such an anus puts
14062s the onew out puts that right click out
14065s right into Mike's eyeballs like what's
14068s up you're not going to be going on but
14069s Mike with the fade away half charge he
14070s going to come out spider response again
14072s with the one Shard again with the one
14074s two both these guys going neck to neck
14076s exchanging tick for tap with those light
14078s attacks Den not putting that poke damage
14080s out and now spider bringing out the the
14082s pillar Tex putting at the top throwing
14084s out the light attack Mike trying to get
14086s up there not able to get come do but
14088s Theo is going to come out gets a nice
14090s little bit chip of the jumping lmds but
14092s now spider to the bubble comes in half
14094s charge down gets that P damage into
14096s ultimate putting up the pressure mik's
14097s going to delay his Al now he's going to
14099s have Advantage moving forward right now
14101s one two the double hold two spider going
14103s to go with the double charge Mike
14105s responds in matches right now these guys
14107s are so evenly matched Mike with the lmb
14109s tries to be spooky with it but spider is
14111s not going to he's going to call him on
14112s the Block he gets the W stagger and now
14115s Mike is not going to be able to get any
14117s follow up now both of them even with
14120s this double charge is going to get
14121s called out by spider the double charge
14123s cancel into the double hold is going to
14125s get called out back to back spider is
14127s going to slow down Mike's roll and now
14131s spider with the momentum going into the
14134s second realm of Yang oh my goodness the
14138s goat has been slowed down by the other
14140s goat s it's it's it's it's LeBron and
14144s Jordan right now wbg spider and ug's
14148s might going head to
14150s head in the realm of Yang it was the
14153s most beautiful fight I've seen all day
14155s and the the sheer skill you saw coming
14159s out no misplays no errors everything on
14163s point spider able to come out Victorious
14166s at the end there putting Mike on the
14168s Yang depletion this is actually huge
14171s making it even more difficult for Mike
14174s to get himself a soul Bloom and get back
14177s off of that Yang depletion cure himself
14180s and get a soul Bloom do see arano as
14182s well has
14184s been cursed with the Yang depletion here
14187s as uh past has won his Yang fight
14190s against him spider with the gold armor
14192s as well from that Yang see the gold
14195s armor gold weapons everybody is looking
14198s very clean right now and look at this
14200s AOS in the realm of Yang versus arano on
14203s the V2 it looks like he had to use his
14205s ultimate we don't get to see any V2 in
14208s action on the camera no Al available for
14210s paste either going to see The scal Rush
14212s coming around going for the overh hold
14213s here huge Parry going to come through
14215s not able to get the followup damage
14217s orano able to keep those weapons getting
14219s him against the wall here but past still
14222s Relentless in the fight goes for the one
14224s into the jumping lmb into a second
14226s jumping lmb getting pryo again and oh my
14228s goodness the untrue into an
14231s uppercut what a classic
14236s Nova face with the goal the Dual Hales
14240s ready down to half Health though oh my
14242s God five people all spotting this AOS
14246s this is a tough break for AOS he's going
14247s to use that tiger to get a little bit of
14249s siphon off but he's delaying the
14251s inevitable everyone sees no ultimate on
14254s him but good thing for him he does have
14256s a lot of building to work with and he
14258s has uh dual hes for that nice space
14262s spider showing up to the party he has
14264s momentum up to three kills right now
14266s Mike on the other vder right now up
14269s three kills himself spider is going to
14271s be closing the distance and what there
14274s was a chance that vers and Mike pulled
14276s away but just the evenly match
14279s everyone's just too solid right now in
14281s the league we're not going to be ending
14282s this that early right now Mike has his
14285s work out on for him but he does have a
14287s lot of opportunity right now looks like
14290s pace is going to get juggled from aano
14292s gold this blades on this Liam everyone's
14296s playing it really really safe though not
14297s letting their health get too low but
14299s they have the likes of spider with the
14301s tiger buff looking to put on some
14303s pressure man with this building though
14306s there's a lot of room to play around
14308s with and once you have that when with
14312s all these players mobility and their
14314s movement you're able to get that nice
14316s reset off and even I'm surprised that
14319s the the AOS was able to live now Mike is
14322s down to 2 minutes and 11 seconds he has
14325s to play this correctly it's kind of like
14327s a with the Yang depletion kind of like a
14331s an Among Us situation where you're
14333s trying to pretend that you're not the
14336s one with Yang deple because the second
14338s the lobby realizes you're the one who
14341s who has to uh force the issue it's very
14345s easy to to counter play to Camp you out
14348s to trap you a little bit easier Mike
14350s binding his time he's pulling this
14352s really really close so around a minute
14353s 45 when I start getting nervous Z it's
14356s just it's pretty hard to burn through a
14358s lot of cool downs but Mike is the goat
14360s he always finds a way to find
14364s V2 oh my goodness ewg zono getting the
14368s V2 catch off on the pace and everybody
14371s clamoring around it looks like Mike got
14373s caught in the V2 as well aono was able
14376s to get the bloom sending Mike to Narnia
14379s throwing him every which way and oh we
14382s got to see it ladies and gentlemen and
14384s I'm happy we got to see it in action
14386s Mike still with a minute and 7 Seconds
14388s you said you get scared at a minute 45 I
14390s get scared when there's 3 minutes left
14392s is it's it's a scary feeling to be on
14394s Yang depletion you know you never know
14395s what's going to happen you never know if
14397s you're just not going to run into a
14398s player or what's going to happen now
14401s Mike is desperately searching for
14403s somebody to eliminate as
14405s aano was able to get the bloom to the
14408s only kill that was very close to being
14410s available and it looks like the kiing
14413s through the Bane
14415s very dangerous movement here coming out
14416s from Morano is going to be doing a great
14419s job of running away but now Mike taking
14420s so much damage the one two going to come
14422s out onto aano he's able to kite this out
14425s so well the amount of buildings and
14427s space that they have to move around
14429s especially with that dagger in hand Mike
14431s is in a lot of trouble he's got 20
14433s seconds left it's going to be it for him
14436s no match point for Mike ladies and
14440s gentlemen what a blunder today has been
14444s with game number four we were almost
14447s sure of a game five Victory earlier well
14451s I I was I was almost
14452s sure and I get it doesn't happen here
14455s ladies and gentlemen H Mike is going to
14458s go out to Zone at 24 points leaving us
14462s two points
14463s away verse 1.1 point away they just
14469s needed verse needed one more elimination
14472s and he needed to survive a little bit
14474s longer Mike needed one more elimination
14477s and to survive a little bit longer it's
14480s wow spider now the closest in contention
14483s that is still alive right now on three
14485s eliminations jl's AIS as well doing a
14487s very good job at catching up on five
14489s kills Pace before he went out four piece
14494s for himself decent for the early game
14496s but wasn't able to hold on long enough
14498s did end up getting hit by the Liam V2
14500s courtesy of ewg zono picked up his first
14503s elimination of the game picking up that
14506s beautiful V2
14508s elimination and we are down to six7 and
14513s I was saying I didn't think we were
14516s going to end it that early it's just
14519s everyone is so locked in right now and
14521s you see spider I I man definitely I
14525s think out of everyone in the league he's
14527s probably the most improved this year
14530s like I his Evolution his gam play he's
14534s Mike was talking about how he has
14535s explored being uncomfortable I feel like
14538s out of all the players play Styles
14540s spiders has changed the most but will
14542s the play style matter if the moon Bane
14545s has something to say about it yeah he's
14548s going to see the multiple hits coming
14549s off but the blue buff on the spider he
14551s doesn't want to force the issue onto the
14553s blue buff little did he know that spider
14555s just took a massive amount of damage
14557s doesn't take the vibe check a little bit
14559s of a blunder there all he had to do was
14561s hit Target lock check the Vibes right
14563s there and he would have seen that uh
14564s Spider was a juicy Target now
14567s technically spider still has his
14569s ultimate up and he could stall out but
14571s he definitely could get him Pocus fired
14572s in that position now going into this
14575s last situation this is one of the the
14579s big the very common situations that
14581s happened on pdor these buttery rocks as
14583s I like to call them these Cliff sides it
14586s looks like this would be like fun to to
14589s kite on you feel very safe but it's
14592s actually atrocious to fight on you end
14595s up like getting stuck on these weird
14598s sliding situations like some skiding
14600s animations and it feels awful to fight
14603s on it's very very hard to consistently
14605s stick on to and scale rush so it ends up
14608s being I I always call the these clip
14609s side situation is a scam where you feel
14611s like you could play them very very well
14613s but you always get stuck you always make
14616s some move in there and you flub this
14618s spot so going into this last little bit
14621s this is where uh the Nuance of using
14624s range weapons and very very cheeky just
14627s safe scale Rush attacks end up being key
14630s right here cuz you don't want to
14632s overcommit in these spots it's very very
14635s hard to get a reset once you start
14637s getting lobbied in these spots yeah and
14639s as we can see right now jdg Chang trying
14642s to go for a reset is getting rained on
14644s with cannon fire it looks like they were
14645s able to lay off for a second while these
14647s players were reloading their cannons
14649s looks like spider going to head into the
14651s zone go for that gold armor was on the
14653s outside bring it back now he's got two
14656s gold armors that he can reset into I
14658s believe F might have just taken the uh
14661s the other armor as uh yeah the purple
14663s has been left there and uh if you didn't
14665s catch the uh analysis that just pulled
14668s up on your screen a second ago spider
14670s needs to eliminate every player in the
14672s lobby and get a first place finish if he
14674s wants to go onto match point this
14677s game it's not impossible but it is
14680s pretty difficult especially being the
14683s fact that he is the lone vda in the
14685s lobby is probably going to get focused
14688s pretty fast there are a lot of people
14691s who are out to get him right now we've
14693s got two Liams one hottie one Matari and
14697s one Tesa still in the game drg's Fung
14700s with two eliminations on the Tessa here
14702s pretty decent game uh you know we we
14705s need a little bit more explosiveness
14706s from Fong if we're going to see any sort
14709s of
14709s victory for this Grand finals from him
14712s he's uh he's got the potential to do it
14716s but he's not creating enough momentum
14719s for himself right now on the Tessa might
14721s be a little bit more difficult but these
14723s charms could be super crucial near the
14725s end game if he's able to hit multiple
14727s opponents with these charms get them
14729s stunned out it could be the setup for
14731s some beautiful eliminations as we are
14733s going to see spider On The Backs side
14736s going to be rotating in looks like he's
14739s not going to go for that purple armor to
14741s bring it into the Zone I believe that's
14743s more of a mic play but uh we're going to
14745s see him scaling in trying to get back
14747s over to the other side giving him some
14748s strategic High Ground whereas fun going
14752s to do his little trick that we saw
14753s earlier waiting in the Mercury River for
14756s the mercury poison to hit and we saw him
14759s throw off an attack you're able to throw
14761s off an attack you click while you're
14763s under the Mercury River you do a focused
14766s slap that can go into a gold Focus
14769s attack if you
14771s connect with a player so he he's got the
14775s opportunity to do that it looks like
14776s he's not going to be throwing that out
14777s and oh my goodness spider getting
14779s completely lobbied here getting
14781s dangerously low is going to go for a bit
14783s of a reset he needs a heal fast this is
14786s what I was saying the whole Lobby is
14787s going to turn on the vaa they don't want
14789s to see that valda ultimate in the end
14791s game going to throw one of the spears
14792s barely any timer left on the AL just
14794s going to try and get as many pots in as
14796s possible able to get a few off but it's
14799s going to be very difficult with tt25 and
14801s Chang AIS now getting extremely going to
14804s get a bit of siphon off but the Tessa
14806s charm is going to be dangerous Here and
14807s Now who gets the kill Fong gets the kill
14810s comes up and finishes off right off the
14813s proc of his own charm and then goes into
14815s a hard stopper onto aano arano now on
14818s the backside needs to get himself a bit
14820s of a reset Chu Jang doing a good job
14821s protecting we don't see the heal po
14823s coming off but he does invest that
14825s ultimate now he has the AL
14827s available able to make a catch with the
14829s V2 he's going to be able to catch tt25
14832s sends him flying into the Zone the F
14834s ability is going to bring him back in
14836s though that's absolutely
14839s insane what grief the Pokemon throwing
14842s 225 into Zone forcing out the ultimate
14844s from 225 but 225 will have his reng he's
14846s going to get that first kill with the
14847s triple charge on the hottie PO is going
14849s to come out everyone's dotted right now
14851s you see the ball the bubbles coming out
14853s Liams on the low ground knocking
14855s everyone in the air 225 does have burn
14856s damage on everyone he's going to get the
14857s light attack onto juang picking up a ton
14859s of kills up to four kills 2 to5 coming
14862s in with the flank but it looks like bong
14865s is going to play that slow slow Assassin
14869s game super well again coming out big
14872s with a couple kills who's going to take
14874s the MVP we're going from long to spider
14876s it looks like 225 with is going to take
14881s it even though he gets sent flying the
14883s own with the Pokeball he's going to come
14886s back with that hotti and we're see
14888s exactly why these crows are still
14890s picking up the hottie that end game burn
14893s damage comes in big the ability to stay
14896s in the midair to really take in what the
14899s lobby is giving you pick off who you
14901s need to pick off and finding those kills
14904s uh the Liams end up like you said SE
14907s catching spider on the ball the spider
14910s in a really really good position to have
14912s a pop off game to climb a couple points
14914s and for the first time I'm seeing more
14917s emotion coming out of spider you can see
14921s how badly he wants us how meaningful
14924s this is for him he's still doing really
14926s really well and I was saying I I think
14929s it's going to go to distance all these
14931s guys are so locked in this season it's
14935s very very hard to win it is a little bit
14937s surprising to me though that Mike came
14941s actually it's not surpr that Mike came
14942s in form but verse is really coming into
14945s form and giving everyone a run for their
14946s money now I think one of the things that
14950s moving forward is going to make a big
14953s difference is that clutch Factor there's
14956s only a couple players who who have risen
14959s to that moment when the the moment gets
14962s so big they reach out and seiz their own
14964s destiny and Mike is definitely one of
14965s those players so if Mike keeps up the
14968s momentum it's going to be tough for
14970s anyone to slow him down but speaking of
14973s slowing down let's slow down for another
14975s question ladies and
14977s gentlemen for the summer split random
14979s gifts make sure to put your answers
14981s inside chat how many players chose acos
14984s you in game four was it A1 b 2 C3 D4 and
14990s it's that time Seb the questions are
14992s getting harder I'm not even sure what
14993s the answer is to this one I I'm 90% sure
14996s I have it right but you know I've never
14999s been the best tests so don't quote me on
15004s that I'm pretty
15006s sure we have our answer and I know what
15008s it is but we are going to take a look at
15010s something that we know 100% is factual
15013s our scoreboard which is going to be six
15016s eliminations for tt25 he was able to
15018s pick up almost every single kill in that
15021s final Circle giving him that multiplier
15023s 1.2 extra points three ranking points
15026s for a total game score of 10.2 we've had
15029s three players who've gotten over 10
15031s points in a game and tt25 is the third
15034s person to do it what a phenomenal game
15037s putting tt25 back on top he had a rough
15039s game two and three but four he's
15041s starting to pick the pace back up spider
15043s needed to get at every single
15046s elimination with the first place finish
15047s to come away Victorious and be on Match
15049s Point he only he didn't get a single
15051s other elimination but he got two extra
15053s ranking points putting him on five at
15055s third place AIS with five eliminations
15058s one ranking point so he didn't rank very
15061s high but the amount of kills that he got
15063s allowed him to take second place in in
15066s this game but in the overall standings
15068s it's going to be fun in seventh Pace in
15070s eighth nine is wuang Orono is 10 11 is
15074s XY and 12 is going to be te star we're
15077s going to take a look at the top ranks
15080s players now it is going to be players 1
15083s through six and I think it'll be a
15086s little bit closer as uh Mike was only
15090s able to get three eliminations I don't
15092s think he got any placement points
15094s putting him at a very lower spot on the
15098s game leaderboard and yes the 3.5 and the
15102s 0.5 for ver
15104s they were so close to the match point
15106s and now tt25 is at 21.2 spiders at 19.6
15111s these players are catching up chuang
15113s still only at 16 and AIS slowly but
15116s steadily climbing at 15.9 AIS started at
15119s 1.4 prepost points I believe that was
15122s 12th Place at the very bottom going from
15124s 12th to six is a very big margin but now
15128s he needs to put the gas on overdrive and
15132s he needs to jump in and put up a lot
15134s more points if he's going to want to be
15136s in contention for match point but
15138s speaking of match point let's go take a
15140s look at the points these players scored
15142s in the previous match brought to you by
15144s Thunder robot BN for you gaming we're
15147s going to get spider with the nice
15149s grabble kick into the weapon SW into the
15151s weapon SW back to back weapon SW Shen
15153s one's going to be taken down spider or
15155s Mike with the carry down down hill how
15158s many we going to get three four five six
15160s we're going to get a six piece combo
15161s four AIS a four NE plan for as he's
15165s going to get taken down now over into
15167s the rumble Yang Mike looking
15169s Unstoppable with his
15171s neutral running through the competition
15174s Pace with the Aur going to get the T
15177s going to get Tapped Out the Pokéball
15178s from Morano and this is what I was
15181s saying except that the
15182s Pokeball with such low ping it ends up
15186s not being too difficult to actually
15188s Dodge the the main thing Pokéball had
15191s for going for it was the fist play and
15193s being able to to cover and guarantee it
15195s now it's a lot harder Pace with the
15197s followup and the F2 looking real
15200s cinematic with that end game speaking of
15203s cinematic
15205s T225 with the curse breaking we counted
15208s around for a little bit now the top five
15210s is looking like what nraa has looked
15213s like for the past three years T25 Mike
15216s spider up there and a couple new bases
15221s trying to take a hold first than one of
15223s the new face but Chang has always been
15225s knocking in the door this is the top
15227s five we've been accustomed to seeing now
15229s seeing 225 take two MVP in such a big
15232s tournament I mean I'm not going to lie
15236s this is kind of his Mo can he close out
15239s finally though you're seeing the likes
15243s rup your Gale that burn one of the big
15246s setups for these end games 9,000 damage
15249s with that Cannon all of his damage
15252s coming out from that safe the safe play
15254s getting everyone to get Focus
15256s fired and the Phantom step the glitching
15258s The Matrix the ability to navigate that
15262s the The Buttery Rock situations and he
15266s finds his way even after getting
15267s Pokeball finding the kill and I think
15269s that's one of the shortcomings as well
15271s on Liam V2 it's very very good for that
15274s isolated Yang situation but on the
15276s outside you just you don't have really
15279s good end game see the shortcoming of it
15284s respect to play with the B2 Pok Ball but
15286s pride and true The Meta picks coming in
15289s big T25 with the hottie going to come
15292s out big on the P
15296s game very very very big poror game H it
15302s looks like it's it's T225 is map game
15305s one pedor we saw T225 win we see him win
15309s now in game number four there's no more
15311s pedor games so uh we're going to see I
15313s have to see him adapt to uh know the OG
15317s Maps Hol rooth and Morris that are going
15319s to be coming back into our rotation
15320s we've got next game Holo game after that
15323s will be Morris and then our final two
15326s games will be taking place on hollo and
15328s then Morris if it does go all the way to
15331s games number seven and eight we have no
15333s more games of pedius to
15336s come so gg25 if that is the secret to
15340s his uh success right now uh it will will
15343s be difficult for him to make a play for
15345s it taking a look now at our Match Point
15348s analysis the threshold is 26 verse is at
15352s 1.1 points away Mike at two tg255 at 4.8
15357s spider at 6.4 Chu Jong at 10 AIS at 10.1
15361s bong at 11.1 past at 12.4 Wong at 3 13.2
15367s Rano at 15.4 15.9 for XY and star is at
15371s 19.7 this is the number number of points
15374s that these players will need to pass the
15376s match point threshold with the amount of
15377s points that they already have so it's
15380s very attainable for the top row of
15382s players spider all the way to
15385s verse 6.4 points to 1.1 points it is so
15391s close for these players that it's make
15394s or break game number five right here is
15397s going to decide the entire course of the
15401s game I feel like the interesting part
15403s that happens what I've seen under like
15407s the the group play finals the bi-weekly
15408s finals is around this point a lot of the
15411s lobby catches up because the the top
15413s three and four they're like all right
15415s we're near that match point and they
15416s kind of I feel like they take their foot
15419s off the gas a little bit where they're
15420s just like let's just get the match point
15422s because I can't necessarily win yet uh
15425s and then next round we're going to pick
15427s our our very comfortable character for
15429s that map we're going to try to win it
15430s all but I feel like this is the wrong
15432s mentality and it lets everyone else kind
15435s of catch up now right now since so many
15439s players are behind this is what I was
15441s talking about that it is a marathon it's
15442s not a Sprint you have the ability to
15445s pick the character that you need to in
15446s this spot if you need to play catchup so
15449s you're going to I feel like we're going
15450s to see the rest of the lobby catch up
15452s this next round they're going to pick
15454s their comfort pick they're going to show
15455s Pi they're going to go Yang now we've
15458s seen Fong go in third party and have a
15460s lot of success surgical play coming out
15462s from him but I feel like in this current
15465s meta uh you cannot win without going
15468s into Yang you need that gold weapon that
15471s gold armor that little bit of horsepower
15473s to Leverage The Spirit Well endgame
15475s situation a little bit better to have
15477s some of that purple Jades in order to
15479s win the heal off situation like if you
15480s get that Cannon Jade for that burn
15482s damage it puts you at a huge Advantage
15484s if you get poison Splash for example it
15486s puts you in a really great situation if
15488s you get any of these kills leading at
15489s the end game you get so much money that
15491s you can invest in the Jades you can
15492s possi
15494s get a really really good Jade for
15497s holding zone or getting high putting
15499s pressure on the rest of the lobby so
15502s sitting back and waiting for the fight
15505s to come to you it's very very hard I
15507s would say in this very very competitive
15510s Lobby people are not going to make
15511s mistakes they're going to go all the way
15514s till that last little bit of Zone and if
15517s you didn't make an effort to set
15519s yourself up you're not going to have as
15521s much as a player like Mike as verse who
15524s are going for it 24/7 same thing with
15527s spider you saw Mike and spider start out
15529s the day very very slow they started out
15531s with third party a little bit of a
15533s warm-up game and they didn't have as
15535s great results immediately they shift
15537s gears and they've been aggressive the
15539s entire time same thing with verse and
15541s that seems to be the tried and true
15543s formula to win this whole
15545s thing yeah and the way that these
15549s players play when they start to put up
15551s all the points and they they they get
15553s really aggressive it it's working like
15556s it's not like they're playing super
15558s super aggressive and dying off spawn
15562s salty and then dying again they're
15565s playing aggressive getting the
15566s eliminations coming away with it and
15568s progressing into the game and getting
15569s even more eliminations it's something
15572s that's very difficult to pull off
15573s especially with the magnitude of uh
15576s competitivness in these lobbies the the
15579s amount of skill that goes into playing
15581s in an mvpl Lobby is
15583s unfathomable to the average player and
15587s being able to pick up eight eliminations
15589s nine eliminations like Mike did the I
15592s eight we'll say eight and a half just
15594s because the poison Splash but um it
15598s counts as an elimination um it's just a
15600s cheeky little kill that he got at the
15601s end there but throughout the course of
15603s his game he was able to pick up before
15606s the final circle eight full eliminations
15609s by defeating players with pure skill
15611s melee skill and that is the beauty of
15615s the nraa game right
15617s here yeah I could say say it better
15620s myself in these lobbies we're seeing the
15623s absolute most beautiful solo play you
15626s can possibly see before uh a lot of the
15629s players weren't as complete as they are
15632s now you saw spider seamlessly weapon
15635s swap between long sword P sword to fist
15638s normally spider has been known for his
15640s neutral game his aggression his ability
15643s to force you to decisions not really his
15645s combo play but and or his weapons
15647s popping he just didn't need to before
15649s but now in order to be successful in
15652s this this modern day nraa you need to
15654s have touch of deaths you need to be able
15656s to have such crazy Advantage State
15659s meaning when you win a situation you
15662s punish your opponent so dearly that they
15665s are
15666s nervous to let you ever get to that
15668s situation ever again now going back to
15671s the highlights we're gonna be seeing
15674s some of that beautiful nraa play the the
15677s coverage now F2 Justina not the very
15681s best that combo break is a scam just
15684s because when you're coming out of it
15685s it's very easy to call you out to catch
15688s your next move and you're seeing Mike
15691s maintain that pressure this is like
15693s vintage Mike that we used to see Meta
15697s has wrapped over and over we were in a
15699s fist plates meta but this is the old
15702s tried in through Mike Crossing up his
15705s opponents going left and right putting
15707s on that pressure and getting you with
15710s those parries we're seeing the follow up
15711s the double hold Dodge R&B covering that
15713s wake up Mike flying through the real of
15716s Yang keeping up the pressure watching
15719s 225 staring at him reading his soul tap
15722s DOD down going to get that nice stagger
15724s coming out 225 going with some pillar
15726s play but not that's not going to work
15728s versus [ __ ] or versus Mike he's ready
15731s for all of that now this is one of the
15733s shortcomings of uh 225 he's very very
15737s straightforward putting on the pressure
15740s forcing his his opponent to take a
15742s gamble with him unfortunately for him
15744s Mike is a better Gambler than 225 just
15747s way more patient still very calculated
15751s and
15752s aggressive now Mike versus Star this
15756s Stellar performance coming out he just
15758s walked through everyone this game double
15760s hold Dodge in going to get the Parry on
15763s star now Mike outside of Yang we're
15768s seeing this this excellent combo coming
15771s out of
15773s Mike yeah this I I was jumping out of my
15777s seat I everybody obviously heard me yell
15780s when that was going on I think I woke up
15782s my entire apartment complex with that
15784s jump lmb play I was blown away that you
15789s to be able to chain that many a row you
15791s have to have the terrain just right and
15793s it has to be in the most perfect
15794s situation to be able to do that to to
15797s complete the elimination lots of the
15799s times you see four jump lmbs in a row
15801s but they combo break out or the terrain
15804s doesn't let you do another one he's able
15805s to hit five jump lmbs in a row to Come
15808s Away with a beautiful elimination right
15810s before the realm of gang drums and yeah
15812s Mike has been putting on a clinic you
15814s could take all of the clips all of the
15816s the highlights that we just watch and
15818s that that's a montage right there that's
15820s the amount of clips that some people hit
15822s in a month
15823s and make a montage and
15825s edit he did in two
15828s games well one game and then he had one
15830s clip in the second game but still
15832s absolute Insanity coming out from these
15834s players right now like this is unheard
15837s of stuff especially in the mvpl you
15840s usually see you know your very textbook
15842s stuff coming out your chip damage your
15844s Parry punish kill you don't see these
15848s crazy combos coming out and Mike is
15849s putting on a clinic for everybody else
15852s in this game and if he's able to keep up
15853s this consistency he's only about four
15856s two 2.2 I think points away from uh
15859s Match Point as well as uh bur being one
15863s point away these players are so close to
15865s getting to that match point threshold
15867s with this game it's going to be the
15869s deciding factor with which one of these
15871s top four players is going to actually
15874s cross over onto the match point could
15876s none of them do it will we go to game
15878s six without a player on Match Point we
15880s won't know yet because it is so
15883s difficult to see and decide until the
15884s very end we're like oh he's going to do
15886s it for sure this game versus going to do
15887s it for sure he needed one more point he
15890s was 1.1 points away from coming away
15894s with match point last game he no
15896s eliminations 0.5 placement points it's
15899s all he got it was very unfortunate to
15901s see but it it's it's so strange how how
15905s different the games can get when these
15908s players start getting hyper competitive
15910s like this they start focusing out the
15912s players that they they know we're on
15913s Match Point they know that are close and
15915s they make the game so much harder and
15917s that's what's so amazing about the
15919s competitive side of moraco Blade point
15921s is you are always on your
15924s toes yeah for the longest time everyone
15927s thought because everyone's skin is the
15929s same now as Spectators we see everyone
15932s with their custom skins you get to pick
15933s whatever you would like but in game all
15935s these competitors they see default skins
15937s on everyone and everyone thought for the
15939s longest time you can't figure out who is
15940s who but now you're seeing almost every
15944s single player having a coach you're
15946s seeing a thick playbook in the
15948s background and it's so important to do
15950s homework to really anticipate your
15952s opponent's landing position what their
15954s character picks are going to be because
15955s you need to go into this counter play in
15957s order to win these things now it goes
15959s the distance and it becomes so hard for
15962s a player to manage in these situations
15965s now for the longest time I we everyone
15968s has always said that trios was the
15970s harder mode there's been a little bit of
15971s debate but for the most part most
15973s competitors thought that trios was a
15974s little bit harder than solos at least
15977s overall strategy but now I would have to
15979s say solos is definitely the harder
15982s variation right now you have to play
15983s remember guys at minimum seven
15986s characters you get a double pick or you
15988s can go with the eight characters that
15990s means you have to know seven of those
15992s matchups the mirror matchup and the
15994s other matchups as well from it it is a
15997s lot to get accustomed to on top of the
16000s fact of remembering how your opponent's
16002s Tendencies are now these guys definitely
16006s have a really good feel of who is who
16008s and what is what now moving forward this
16011s is like the later half of the tournament
16013s where it really comes in a crunch time
16015s that you hope that you did your homework
16017s in order to pull out your ace cards your
16019s Trump cards we we already went to back
16022s to back pedoras now we're going back to
16024s tried and
16025s true Morris and Holo these guys have
16029s played these Maps a billion times what
16033s anything new ever figured out on these
16035s Maps whether it's a kiing path a
16037s character pick for the longest time I
16039s was saying hotti was not first round
16042s pick he he was usually second or third
16045s he was kind of like that he was good but
16047s he was getting focused firing a lot but
16049s now we're seeing him first round pick
16051s it's very clear that because everyone's
16054s experimenting with so much the C the The
16057s Meta is wrapping back around we're
16059s seeing that hotti pck now moving
16063s forward I feel like we're going to go to
16066s the distance de uh last time it we go to
16070s eight rounds now in Solo just cuz I feel
16072s like the skill is just too close now I
16076s feel like it's the wrong strategy in
16078s this spot to play for match point I
16080s think you have to play for points and
16082s just do as best as you can every single
16084s round just just just slow and steady
16088s wins this race we've seen it go to
16089s distance before we've seen it go to
16091s points it's very very hard to count on
16095s winning a round just knowing that you're
16097s going to win this next round I think
16099s those days are over everyone is too
16102s close in skill everyone knows when they
16105s have to risk when they have to go into
16107s realm of Yang and I feel like the lobby
16108s is going to turn up and we're going to
16110s see a lot more players go into the realm
16112s of
16113s Yang yeah I think I I definitely agree
16117s with you when you say that they they
16118s need to just play for as many points as
16120s possible don't be focused on the match
16123s point but I I I have to disagree with
16125s you when you say we're going to go all
16127s the way to game number eight I think I
16130s think we're going to end in six or
16132s seven six or seven I think it's most
16136s likely
16137s seven I'm six would be crazy but we've
16141s got four players with the the legitimate
16144s potential to hit match point five if you
16147s want to count the nine points because we
16149s have seen the 10o plus games but four I
16155s realistically are going to be in
16157s contention to hit match point this game
16159s if all four of them hit the match point
16164s which I believe could be possible if you
16166s divide the kills correctly if all four
16168s of them go on Match Point there's a very
16170s good chance we're done by game
16172s six so five gifted if we go to match
16176s eight ends in six or seven I take I take
16179s the
16180s over let's do it let's let's do it let's
16183s do it let's do it I I think we go to
16185s distance the skill's too close we put
16188s the money with the mouth is we're
16191s friendly let's see if Mike can end it if
16196s verse can end it if spider can end it
16198s can 225 bring it back the curse is over
16201s he's already gotten two MVPs can 225
16203s keep up the momentum my man is fragging
16206s showing up it looks like Mike has found
16208s his Bojo first is coming into form but I
16212s mean
16213s even though we don't talk about vers a
16214s lot I've seen him he's been top three in
16217s a bunch of really really big tournaments
16219s so the the horsepower of his dueling was
16221s never the problem it was really just
16223s this overall gameplay his character
16225s picking he he doesn't have as a complete
16228s as a character pool as some of these
16230s other players but when he has his
16232s comfort pick he absolutely dominates
16235s he's one of the few players that can win
16237s in realm of Yang it is not easy to win
16240s realm of Yang in this Lobby like
16243s everyone just wants to be that guy
16246s inside Rumble Yang just dominating and
16249s it's just those days are over you have
16251s to pick and choose when you go you have
16252s to have the right character with the
16255s right weapon versus another character
16257s you want every as you can if not it's a
16259s coin flip it's it's very very difficult
16263s uh even with the extension of time now
16267s the really really good thing I I think
16268s this was a really good change that they
16270s made is that R of Yang is longer now so
16272s we don't really see that timeout
16274s pressure a lot of players would take
16276s advantage of that and force you to be
16278s aggressive and just wait you out and if
16280s if you didn't go aggress they would just
16282s time you out it would be a draw I always
16284s felt that was a little bit unsatisfying
16285s to watch but now there's so much time
16287s that player can walk you down they can
16291s pressure you with light attacks if you
16293s choose not to commit and they will
16296s eventually take you down so moving
16299s forward seeing the picks coming out
16302s we're see the usual subx Justa kylin
16305s Tessa hottie
16308s Liam and zipping zipping showing back of
16310s the meta but he isn't I mean old zipping
16313s meta was very very oppressive I feel
16315s like everyone's Advantage state is too
16317s strong everyone's so accustomed to uh
16320s weapon swapping now uh with the the long
16322s sword Tod being on deck and even one
16325s thing that that's surprising though Seb
16327s is slapping isn't as prevalent I would
16330s say in the pro league I feel like a lot
16332s of these guys haven't figured out that
16335s not many players are using slap to open
16338s people
16339s up yeah i' I've definitely been the
16341s victim of uh of the slop many many times
16345s it it's definitely a good way to uh
16348s either open up a combo start Su out
16351s because you have a fre blue attack you
16353s don't get parried it offers stagger if
16355s you switch to a weapon you get pryo fast
16358s enough it it is a
16362s very useful thing they there are a few
16365s issues with it if you do get caught out
16367s without your weapon uh there's a chance
16369s you will get pryed on you will get
16372s comboed out so there are a few risks to
16375s it but I do believe the rewards outweigh
16377s the risk if I'm not
16381s wrong what are we on Morris or hollo for
16385s this next one not 100% sure I think we
16388s might be doing a reset here I'm not 100%
16392s sure exactly we're experiencing a few
16395s technical we're seeing we're seeing the
16397s the woing new woing keyboard running by
16400s by
16401s tuang that that keyboard definitely the
16404s The Cutting Edge of pro play not just in
16407s the rockco I think in in every game
16410s right now the wooting keyboard I when I
16412s went through all the pros all these guys
16414s have the wooting keyboard and they have
16415s him super decked out like aluminum cases
16418s reset Mike's keyboard was one of the
16420s most beautiful keyboards ever
16423s seen I didn't really know this but like
16425s for keyboards the actual sound the
16428s weight changes the Acoustics of it and
16431s there's like a a sound of thiness that
16433s you want on top of the performance the
16436s reason why everyone's using the wooting
16437s keyboard and the razor is just uh the
16440s actual actuation point when you press
16441s the buttons before it was just
16443s mechanical keyboards but now the wooting
16445s uses magnets to recognize your key
16447s presses basically immediately like
16451s .1 millim it recognizes your key press
16455s and that translates to just um being
16458s able to tap Dodge perfectly being able
16460s to hold Dodge perfectly a lot of
16462s situation it gives you that little bit
16464s of edge same reason that you have higher
16467s refresh rate on your monitor you always
16468s want to have the lowest amount of input
16471s delay as possible and with that the new
16473s looting keyboard it's the first keyboard
16475s that actually has 8,000 polling rate and
16478s polling rate just means how quickly your
16479s keyboard refreshes for a while now Mouse
16482s had it but no keyboard really had it and
16485s woing newest woing just came out with it
16488s it took me eight months to get mine and
16490s I I immediately recognized is that
16492s chuang had it and I know a lot of EU and
16496s na Pros recently got their wooting it
16498s looks like the CN players are picking it
16500s up I
16502s personally for at least keyboards I
16504s don't know if you ever tried 60% I
16506s always look at the pros that are
16507s peripherals to see what they're running
16509s the headsets all kind of come standard
16511s for these guys
16512s but you you really get to pick your
16514s mouse your mouse pad and your keyboard
16517s kind of like wearing like your your own
16519s kind of shoes when you're an athlete you
16521s really get to choose your preference
16522s here but there are advantages to
16526s peripherals and look look at Mike's
16528s keyboard the custom keys and everything
16530s I bet he has like porcelain keys look at
16532s those the most pad to match too yeah
16535s it's
16536s just that that's that's at least a
16538s $1,000 keyboard I've had the same
16541s keyboard that I got for Christmas when I
16543s was 14 years old 13 years old and uh
16548s it's it's never failed me it's getting a
16549s little dusty but uh going take good care
16552s of it and uh I should probably upgrade
16555s my keyboard I'm going to need those five
16557s gifted from Raven first if I can uh
16559s afford myself a wuen keyboard so uh
16564s ladies and gentlemen we're having a few
16565s difficulties with our game we're going
16566s to be resetting game five we're going to
16568s be jumping right back into that in just
16570s a second but uh you got me and Raven to
16572s talk to for a little bit we're going to
16574s go into a little bit of a rundown this
16576s game has been highly anticipated and you
16578s know they're just drawing the suspense
16579s out for longer this is exactly what
16581s they're doing we're getting all hyped up
16584s getting ready and they just want to keep
16586s us in suspense so that we have even more
16589s excitement for when this game five
16591s actually
16593s starts keeping up this SP I mean game
16596s five technically I always call game five
16598s Championship round but because we're
16600s going eight rounds I would say game
16603s seven is a championship round it's
16604s really the round before the last little
16606s bit I would still say the the weird part
16609s of having a long tech pause at for this
16612s instance is all the players who have a
16615s ton of momentum vers uh Mike spider this
16619s is where you get iced off a little bit
16620s as a competitor like you you want to get
16622s back in there you want to start Out
16624s Swinging so really mentally resetting
16627s and keeping yourself locked into this
16628s spot is really really tough as a
16631s competitor
16633s especially especially if you're you're
16636s on fire like you don't want to slow down
16639s at all but if you're one of the players
16641s who's been struggling this gives you a
16643s moment to like sit back really think
16645s about talk to your coach figure out what
16647s you need to be doing better and make a
16649s decision a lot of the times when you're
16651s doing bad in a tournament it's because
16653s you're being very very indecisive and
16655s you don't have time to really like plot
16657s and think just because of how fast
16658s Everything Everything feels like you're
16660s going a lot of times between rounds I
16662s would say nvpl goes by really really
16665s fast as far as round to round you don't
16667s have much time to really sit there and
16669s prep between rounds um and there's a lot
16673s of moving as well you what's really cool
16675s when you're actually at the event each
16677s of these players have their own room you
16678s see it in the beginning that you have
16680s your own TV your own room for all of
16682s your friends and family and your coach
16683s to watch you as you play cuz when the
16685s game start everyone actually has to get
16687s off the stage you actually can't bring
16690s your phone anything metal or anything
16692s you just go in uh the coaches and the
16695s players and you have like 2 or 3 minutes
16698s to sit down set up and then you go live
16701s again now rarely do you see like Tech
16704s problems what's interesting on on the
16706s stage is it's either really really hot
16709s because there's so many confus together
16711s or you're really really cold there's no
16713s in between CU there are a couple vents
16715s around and you either just get full AC
16717s blowing on you or it's just like under
16720s the desk it's just an absolute SAA and
16722s it's just super super heated from all
16725s the
16726s computers I remember I remember sitting
16728s at one of the computers at the at the
16730s top row and I was I was feeling the nice
16733s breeze I was hanging out this was at the
16734s first worlds this was uh this was in um
16738s uh Guang Joo so this is this this wasn't
16740s the Shanghai uh this wasn't the Shanghai
16744s stage it was a completely different
16745s stage that they had it it was nice and
16748s Breezy up at the top and then I was
16750s watching a scrim it was the first time I
16752s had ever watched a scrim inside the
16755s stadium inside the arena and the
16757s screaming and yelling from all of these
16759s players all of their Cals it's just so
16761s incredible to listen to of all these
16763s players yelling at each other I
16764s obviously couldn't really understand
16766s most of the stuff that was coming out of
16767s their Ms but it was the atmosphere was
16769s crazy you go to the bottom level and
16771s it's just a sauna it was so hot on that
16775s bottom level I remember I remember
16777s playing against uh it was one of the
16779s nraa staffs that came in it was the end
16781s of the day and I I challenged him to a a
16784s zero ban before I even knew what a zero
16786s ban was I just wanted to play on one of
16788s the computers see what it was like to to
16791s play as a pro player on the stage I got
16793s smoked it was it wasn't even funny I
16795s wasn't even playing against a player I
16797s was playing against one of the staff
16798s members who was helping out with the
16800s game um was a good time it's it being on
16804s location in China the the stuff you get
16806s to experience is so much so much of a
16809s difference than sitting at home at our
16811s computer computers casting from uh the
16814s safety of our own home going out into
16816s the world and casting on location is
16818s it's just a different experience is so
16820s much fun Oh sha the the current Stadium
16823s they're in Shanghai it one the city is
16826s one of the most epic cities i' ever seen
16827s definitely cyber Punk is definitely
16829s inspired just the most Crazy Light that
16832s night but the other arena in changu uh I
16836s think it's a little bit further north
16837s than China but it was way colder in
16839s shangu and it had the opposite effect
16841s the AR was so cold that I felt like it
16845s came out that Mike actually had hot pads
16848s under his shirt he had three just giant
16850s hot pads that he used to keep himself
16852s warm well the rest of us had like three
16854s or four layers
16856s on and it's just that's how what you
16858s have to compete under these conditions
16860s like no matter what you got to find a
16862s way to win in these spots and that
16865s stadium was even more epic it was way
16867s larger than the stadium they're in and
16869s that one that they're in right now in
16870s Shanghai still a really really big
16872s Stadium uh the bleachers it's
16875s interesting to see that the the full
16876s bleachers is full actually there's
16879s probably three three or four rows up
16881s there but not really a
16884s fullsize uh Arena like changu is so
16888s these guys definitely it's very very
16891s different when you compete in these
16893s spots where the crowd is involved oh my
16896s God it it's something super interesting
16899s to hear the the war of the crowd as
16901s you're playing now all these guys do
16903s have like noise cancelling headsets on
16905s so you can't really like signal or
16906s anything it's one of the ways they keep
16908s competitive Integrity but it it get so
16911s loud when there I believe at the last
16913s World there was like two or 3,000
16915s people so it it was super super loud
16919s when the crowd got going now hopefully
16923s we'll be getting going in a little bit
16925s but I got to say who do you think is
16927s actually going to take of this now Seb I
16929s still feel like mikee is the favorite
16932s so I feel vers is going to run out of
16934s gas but I'm hoping T225 wins it's it's
16937s all decided after this game five it it
16940s really depends on who how many players
16944s hit match point if four three to four
16947s players hit match point I believe that
16950s there will be will be done by game six
16953s or seven if only one or two players hit
16955s it I think it'll go all the way to the
16957s game
16958s eight and I think think that if four
16962s players hit it it's going to be micro
16964s spider if we go the distance I think
16967s it's going to be vers or
16970s TT ver or T225 who good this it's always
16973s someone up here who
16978s uh kind of sneak it in and I feel like
16982s we we haven't been we haven't had like
16984s the the POV of verse so I now it's
16988s pretty cool to see how verse has been
16990s showing so much consist consistency nice
16993s F going to be coming down from the top
16995s playing the Matari situation perfectly
16998s for this end game same thing I was
17000s saying before Deena very Z very very
17003s similar end game strategy where you can
17005s stall out in midair by popping the Al
17007s and going straight up he does have St to
17010s work with here double charge into canos
17013s but going up for that grapple canel same
17015s thing we saw with Matari and he's able
17016s to analyze look at this position see
17018s that Mike is going to overcommit here
17022s comes in at the last second to get that
17024s nice kill steal but unfortunately for
17026s him the poison Splash like we were
17028s saying nice kills still coming out
17031s compliments of that poison Splash for
17033s Mike but verse having a stellar day
17037s today I'll say out of all the players
17040s vers is definitely one of those dark
17042s horses that we don't talk about a lot
17045s just cuz he's had a lot of inconsistent
17046s results in the past or at least for the
17049s weekly finals and the actual weekly he
17052s always goes in the Yang he's kind of
17053s like mixed results but under the big
17055s lights I've always seen verse perform
17058s very very well and we got to always
17061s remember that the qualifiers are
17063s qualifiers for a reason the weekly
17064s finals even though they have the word
17066s finals and aren't the actual finals
17069s right now this nvpl solo finals this is
17071s what matters the most and usually when
17074s you win this one you're recognized as
17075s one of the strongest players now we've
17077s seen the dominance of Mike and spider
17080s for the longest time with 225 knocking
17082s in the door now chuang has been trying
17085s to transition get in that top three but
17087s it's pretty much just been Mike spider
17090s and 225 being those Premier fighters in
17092s the league they always seem to just find
17095s a way to adapt to the meta and show that
17097s consistency that they're the top three
17099s fighters in the league but now we're
17100s seeing verse shenyuan uh and wufong
17105s doing super super well I still think
17107s that these three players have had a good
17111s beat
17111s onto Mike spider and 225 including even
17114s Chang a lot of people were doubting
17116s Chang and he went out and actually won
17118s one of this weekly he's had a little bit
17121s of a slower results since then but Chang
17124s is showing up very very solid and
17125s consistent that's why I still say I
17127s gotta say SE it's going to go to
17129s distance today everyone's just too good
17131s now yeah I mean it everybody is
17135s extremely talented and it is really
17138s difficult to decide on who is actually
17140s going to be able to come away with it
17141s but I I am strong in my feeling and you
17145s know I I I am wrong a lot but let let's
17147s hope we're right this time because we've
17149s got gifted Subs riding on the line here
17151s and uh I'm I'm really excited for for
17155s this game the game number five is going
17157s to be the Mak or break game we've been I
17159s haven't been I've been stressing this
17161s the entire time we're going to see some
17164s crazy stuff going on and it's it's going
17167s to be wild it we've got we've got a
17169s little bit of buildup into it so uh yeah
17172s it's it's going to be a second before
17174s we're going to get back into this ladies
17175s and gentlemen but we're here we're
17178s hanging out we're getting ready it's a
17179s it's a good period of wind down we just
17181s get to talk relax recap on the day so uh
17184s game number one we had
17186s tt25 uh game two was Fong three I
17190s believe we had uh Mike and then four
17194s back to tt25 so game five who do you
17197s think is going to MVP game five
17202s uh I I would say Shuan or wufang might
17205s wake up this game now remember it's very
17208s easy to ice off in the in the positions
17210s and once Mike gets going he's kind of a
17214s juggernaut like an Unstoppable force and
17217s in the last couple tournaments feel like
17220s a lot of people felt like they they had
17223s Mike figur out that Mike hadn't find his
17224s footing in the current meta you saw in
17227s the interviews that the the key to him
17230s evolving he admitted very openly that he
17234s he felt for the first time he's lost
17236s some of his confidence he lost some of
17237s his Mojo but going into this tournament
17240s because he admitted that a couple weeks
17242s earlier he worked on his game he's still
17245s very very hungry to win he still wants
17247s to win
17249s and at this level it really is like a
17253s game of inches at this point even though
17255s Mike has dominantly won a lot of spots
17258s clutched it up it is very very close
17261s going into his last little bits and in
17263s general when you see Mike win a
17265s tournament you see him win a lot of like
17268s situations that are unwinable I think as
17271s a great player what really defines you
17274s is not the situations that you should
17275s win it's a winning it's the situations
17278s that it looks like there's no way you
17279s can win this situation and you somehow
17281s find a way to win in these spots and
17284s time and time again the Champions prove
17287s that you can't count them out and and I
17289s felt like in a lot in that pop off game
17292s we haven't seen such a dominant
17294s performance from anyone in a long time
17296s usually what we see in this current meta
17298s is like six to seven kills we saw Mike
17300s have Nine Kills which is absolutely
17302s insane he does get denied that 1.2
17305s multiplier I feel like if Mike got it
17307s there the tournament was over there no
17310s one could slow him down now maybe you
17313s know someone just like oops I got to
17315s kick the plug out of my my computer got
17317s to slow down the tournament got to reset
17320s you know a little bit a little bit of
17322s finesse we can just keep this going
17324s forever uh so now we just stall out let
17328s everyone cool off we're basically
17329s getting a hard reset of the tournament I
17331s would say as far as momentum for all
17333s these players yeah I think I need to do
17335s another welcome back okay never mind
17337s ladies and gentlemen we are here game
17339s number five of the grand finals about to
17342s get underway here we had our hero
17345s selects go down I don't know if they're
17346s going to be res selecting
17349s Heroes I I'm pretty sure we're going to
17352s have the whole thing redone the
17354s reselection of the heroes you're going
17356s to see what ultimates and abilities
17358s they're playing and we're going to be
17359s running through the entire drill again
17361s so we're going to be getting this
17362s underway few minutes here these players
17364s are going to be selecting who they're
17365s going to be playing I wonder if there's
17367s going to be any variation I can't
17368s remember exactly who was playing what
17372s when we were taking a look at the hero
17373s picks for game number five so uh it'll
17376s probably be almost exactly the same but
17378s on the off chance that it's different
17380s we'll uh we'll try to thought the
17381s differences with the limited memory of
17384s they picked before uh we're going to be
17387s taking a look Wong you know you were
17390s talking about players who win in
17392s situations where they're not supposed to
17394s I think that describes wufong almost
17396s perfectly there's lots of positions and
17398s times where like okay he's dead he's not
17400s going to win this fight and he turns it
17401s around and he CES away with a beautiful
17403s elimination I think we saw him in game
17405s one fighting against either Mike or
17407s spider and it looked like every all hope
17410s was lost for him he came back from half
17412s HP and was able to come away with a
17414s beautiful elimination now it's it
17417s happens over and over again that wuon
17419s comes with these crazy one HP clutches
17421s and brings it back from almost certain
17425s loss we saw it uh T star another one of
17428s those players who are so close to dying
17431s almost dead to Yang depletion is able to
17433s bring it back with a a beautiful steel
17436s of a bloom kiing out of there using
17438s ultimates to perfectly
17441s insert themselves into the situation and
17443s then pull themselves right back out
17445s again as soon as they need to uh it's
17448s been a very good player at doing that as
17449s we're going to get to see who the player
17451s is selected we're doing a whole pack
17453s opening oh no he dropped it we're
17455s getting hottie and
17457s tamy so uh he looks at both of them and
17460s says he's going to play both heroes in
17462s the same game so uh I believe we're
17465s going to get to see the hottie pick for
17466s spider this game I'm pretty sure he's
17468s first round so uh it'll be hottie for
17471s spider should be an interesting one
17473s unless we do see the Tami go as uh maybe
17477s these cards are the new way they're
17478s they're communicating oh there we go
17481s spider's ready for his knp he he's tired
17483s of all the technical difficulties he
17485s wants to go to sleep it always interests
17488s me that gaming chairs allow you to lean
17491s all the way back just for like the the
17492s power gaming nap and and I've actually
17496s seen in trios and even in solos a lot of
17498s a lot of people close your eyes kind of
17501s meditate and visualize from round to
17503s round there is a little bit of downtime
17506s between round and round I personally
17508s never felt that not closing my eyes
17510s between rounds but you're seeing the
17513s high pressure on these guys see a deep
17515s breath coming out for him I wonder where
17517s aran's uh girlfriend coaches at normally
17520s he has his girlfriend coaching him and
17522s she does his makeup for him I'm seeing
17524s him oh but I guess the round is starting
17526s right now the other coaches were there
17529s though we're not seeing the
17531s trios the coaches give massages I don't
17534s I don't think I've seen any of the solos
17535s coaches going giving out massages that
17537s might be the the the hack the power up
17539s that these guys are needing can I get a
17542s casting coach to give me massages while
17544s the
17545s games so nice a gasic massage go oh I I
17552s need to look into that I'm going to I'm
17553s going to invest in a casting coach
17556s taking a look at our first round
17558s selection it's going to be Justina for
17560s tt25 on the round one pick along with
17562s past picking the hottie I believe this
17564s is going to be pretty much the exact
17566s same as we saw before Liam
17569s Liam Fong there we go AIS and Fong going
17573s to be rocking the Liam picks third round
17576s selection hottie Matari kylin hottie
17580s yeah this is almost completely exactly
17582s the same as uh what we saw in the
17586s previous selection for round five buong
17590s yet to lock in his hero we're going to
17591s see AOS coming out here I can't remember
17595s if that was a the same pick or a
17597s different one I believe it was different
17599s um hotti still on the table here so
17602s we're going to see spider locking in
17603s hottie um verse going to be locking in
17606s Tessa
17608s arano going for the Tami Shang going for
17611s the zipping XY and star the last to
17615s select and it is going to be vda Justina
17618s no vdas until last round it looks like
17620s vda is sort of falling out of favor on
17622s the holler off map as we are getting
17626s ready to jump in Now ladies and
17627s gentlemen we're sorry for the break
17630s we're back now game number five the mvpl
17634s solo finals is about to be
17636s underway look at that little little map
17639s with spider's coach last minute
17641s adjustments is all I'm saying prep work
17645s for for us as viewers and as casting is
17648s a little bit of slope for us but I'm
17650s saying as a play player this is where
17652s invaluable having having that coach
17654s having that second second pair of eyes
17657s to help you uh take advantage of this
17661s this extra time it allows you to plan
17663s and really dial in your game to call a
17665s really really precise play in this spot
17668s now normally as players you kind of go
17672s blow for blow a lot of it is very
17674s intuitive uh the moment is so big that
17677s it kind of everything is a blur it's
17680s very very hard to be very conscientious
17681s in the moment so your habits end up
17683s carrying you in this moment but this
17685s rare instance where you have so much
17686s time to prep that's where like having
17690s everything printed out being able to
17692s reference something you you could put
17694s something together your intuition could
17696s put something together based on the info
17699s and you can find an interesting spot
17701s here and and catch up that's why I'm
17703s saying that I think it's going to go to
17706s distance especially with that isop can
17710s Mike keep up with that momentum he's
17712s going to be on the kyin pretty Allin
17714s character it's really hard uh to get a
17719s ton of value out of him in end game just
17721s because there's so many strong defensive
17722s characters right now you got hottie Liam
17726s zipping and vda then you got the wild
17729s mushrooms of Tami out there and I would
17732s say Loki Justina is one of the really
17735s really strong uh defensive characters
17737s right now and we're seeing Landing spots
17740s coming out pretty hot Drop coming out in
17742s the north 25 is going to be claiming the
17744s puzzle in the
17746s center but so much of the lobby almost
17749s half the lobby is in the
17752s north yeah it's it's a very clustered uh
17757s clustered spawns here as we're taking a
17759s look we're going to see closer to the
17761s uson ruins we're going to have five of
17765s our players up top six actually seven
17769s players by Yan run
17771s uh as well as one player down by the
17775s city of Tang one player Kay c225
17778s spawning on the Salvation Podium we're
17780s going to try and solve that puzzle looks
17782s like paste is going to be going in and
17785s around the middle in between uh the gold
17789s zones and
17791s the podium as we're going to take a look
17794s at the huge cluster of players that have
17796s spawned out this is the
17799s massive area where all of these players
17801s have decided to pop out to we're seeing
17804s on the lake by the uson runes spider and
17807s arano going be going at it and it looks
17809s like no weapon for Rano unfortunate for
17812s him here spider is going to pick up his
17815s first elimination of the game putting
17817s him on 20.6 points he is 5.4 points away
17821s fpx verse already getting dangerously
17823s low here this isn't what he wants to
17826s happen he needs to come away with an
17827s elimination here trying to scale Rush
17829s away he wants to find himself an armor
17831s swap fast looks like he's going to be
17833s unable to as he's scaling through AIS
17836s hot in pursuit of him here is going to
17838s be trying to get keep the chase up verse
17842s in a very tough spot right now oh is
17844s going to find himself an armor could
17846s bring this fight back around if he wants
17848s to AIS going keep trying to cut him off
17850s and now Chu Jang fighting against ug's
17852s Mike on the backside the overh hold from
17854s the purple Katana going to come out it
17856s looks like he is just going to go for a
17857s reset here shiang not wanting to fully
17861s commit into this fight verse is going to
17863s end up kiing out the Tessa of the lobby
17866s we are going to see now chuang getting
17868s dangerously low here on the back end
17871s looks like drg's Fong wanting to come in
17873s for the elimination and Fong going to
17875s pick up the kill tg2 5 as well picking
17877s up an elimination in the back end spider
17880s jumping into the mix trying to go for a
17881s third party onto drg's Fong Fong with a
17885s super offensive strategy going for a lot
17888s of damage now verse on the front side
17891s trying to make something happen on the
17892s spider ultimate is going to be invested
17894s quickly though verse now on the back
17895s foot armor swap going to come in looks
17897s like he misses the damage we are going
17899s to see him teleport out now spider going
17901s to take a bit of damage in from the Zone
17904s going to go for a bit of a heal before
17906s re engaging the fight onto verse verse
17908s does have ultimate available now as well
17910s we might see some crazy scrap off happen
17912s as ug's mic takes on
17915s drg's interesting play going into Zone
17918s and immediately throwing the pokus
17920s attack while Spider goes through almost
17922s gets D but good thing for him off spawn
17926s you don't really get those those stacked
17928s loot or do you Mike has purple fist
17932s blades already he knows how sacked he is
17933s he wants to get the reset off but AIS is
17935s going to keep up the pressure and that's
17938s what I was saying like rest of the lobby
17940s is going to heat up and continue their
17943s Strat they're going to recompose reset
17946s and Mike who had a ton of momentum
17947s before is going to be able to keep this
17949s up he's in talk position right now even
17951s though he has Al up versus Liam Liam can
17954s get this proc off Mike with the B2 going
17957s to get a bit of slashes onto AIS but AIS
17960s a man is not afraid he's going to keep
17962s up the pressure got the immortal to proc
17966s on Mike now Mike zoning out threatening
17969s the slam but not able to do it he is
17971s going to get the fade away R&B now AIS
17973s in a tough position Mike's not going to
17974s shy away from the moment he's going to
17975s look for the wake up to get the jumping
17978s lmb and AIS will fall Mike is he going
17982s to get start heating up again he's up to
17983s 25 points close to that match point no
17986s long ready for that third party triple
17988s jumping lmb's there's nowhere left to go
17991s Mike will fall to drg's Fong Fong with a
17995s text book third party putting him onto
17998s two eliminations making it that much
18001s more difficult for Mike to be able to
18003s come away Victorious for this match
18006s point he's on 25 points with one kill he
18010s needs one more point to go on the match
18012s point verse is still 1.1 points away and
18014s he has been sent to the soul alter T225
18017s two eliminations on the board spider as
18019s well two eliminations on the board and
18021s we are going to see now G25 had been
18023s contested for the podium but he was able
18025s to pick himself up two kills here we're
18028s going to see him solve the puzzle get
18030s himself that
18031s coveted golden weapon from the box here
18035s able to pick himself up a good little
18037s bit of loot purple staff in the back
18040s pocket hit as needed as we're now going
18042s to take a look Fong Ultra aggressive
18045s today already picked up two eliminations
18047s going to try and go for this elimination
18050s on to wbg spider we're going to see the
18052s ult come out from spider now and Funk
18055s just High aggression ready to give Chase
18059s to any fight possible he can't move too
18061s far away from here because he knows F
18062s will hop onto the ballista and try and
18064s come away with this kill it looks like
18066s spider was able to make it out of that
18068s 100 m distance range just in time before
18071s F was able to find him and Sh him out
18074s able now going to try and go for a bit
18076s of a reset here oh my goodness
18078s Mike no no way Mike
18083s mik Mike oh F my goodness 25 points Mike
18090s is going to fall to the ballista through
18092s the wall the burn damage is going to
18094s chip him down and now verse 225 spider
18097s have an opportunity to get onto match
18099s point Mike stop right at the line and
18102s all say this is happened time and time
18104s again people get held to one point
18107s before Match Point even half a point
18109s every little bit matters at this level
18112s body going to be coming out from spider
18114s getting a lot of poke damage on the star
18115s and then bong coming in as a nuisance
18118s looking for the third party checking the
18120s Vibes spider is still full health but
18124s this Rumble Yang is going to be coming
18125s out looks like ronal is going to grab
18127s that ticket but spider wants to go in
18129s purple dagger on on the hottie looking
18131s really really Juiced up wants to get in
18134s there as well and this is a tough part
18136s also within nvpl if you don't get that
18140s ticket it is not a guarantee that you're
18141s going to get in Wang is going to get
18144s pressured out ticket taken away from 225
18148s has to be careful right now if 225 lands
18150s the slow shot he will get taken down
18152s nice job breaks line of sight it's going
18153s to go for that super safe heal but 225
18157s forcing out Wang no free yangs anymore
18160s going going back over to spider bong
18161s star star already down to low Health
18164s Fong no combo break for his name has to
18167s be careful right now spider still has
18168s his combo break still waiting to go R
18171s Yang but there's five people waiting for
18174s this Rumble Yang it's a long line right
18175s now I feel like you're definitely not
18178s getting in at this R Yang moving to
18180s another one is probably going to be a
18182s smarter choice we see spider fading out
18184s going to hit the Bell notice how many
18186s people are there looks like he's going
18187s to op out and just wait to find a better
18189s opportunity and on the outside we're
18191s seeing some of that outside of Yang
18193s strategy all these stashes being very
18195s very big you're en to get a nice purple
18197s armor purple weapon and some solid Jades
18201s definitely a good constellation prob
18202s prize if you're not going to get in the
18203s realm of Yang yeah 100% our first fight
18207s we're going to see is drg's Fong versus
18209s as E's XY sha Yuan as we're going to see
18213s the scale Rush come through the one two
18214s from the dagger going to bring it back
18216s around gets caught in the bubble from
18218s the F2 of the VA going to send that one
18221s out again we're going to see the scale
18223s Rush come out from XY and brought by by
18226s a counter scale Rush from Fong able to
18227s try and bring it back around with a
18229s Charged R&B going over holding charge
18232s with the lmbb trying to see if he can
18233s get lmb Focus off but gets a crazy Parry
18235s with the fist blades switching over to
18237s the fist blades for that extra damage
18238s we're going to see now giving the fist
18240s blades back to XY is going to end up
18241s getting caught up in the ultimate
18244s ability of XY XY going to try and go for
18246s a bit of a heal here see
18249s the second spear getting popped scale
18251s Rush going to come through isn't going
18253s to connect and now funk in a bit of a
18255s bad spot here the oh my goodness the
18258s focus attack is going to miss and now XY
18260s is going to get caught out doesn't get
18262s the oh my goodness he does not get the
18265s siphon but the grapple catch into the
18269s bump into the jumping lmb into the R&B
18272s finish what a beautiful play and now K's
18275s tt25 fighting against jdg Chu Jang the
18277s clanks coming in every single time tries
18279s to go for the cancel baited out from the
18282s cancel here misses the first Justina
18284s Dash he is on the V1 so he's got a few
18286s more available one dash remaining here
18290s going to try and go for a meter dump
18292s holding Blue is going to try go for it
18295s again here gets the one two gets the
18297s freeze into the meter dump and this
18298s could be it here but the ultimate is
18299s going to get released and now he is in a
18302s lot of trouble Kay c25 going to try and
18305s make something happen but every second
18307s chujang is gaining more Health he's not
18309s able to do anything about it scal Rush
18311s going to come in tries to go for the
18312s uppercut is unable to gets caught in PR
18315s goes for the F trying to back away but
18317s no HP is going to get the catch into the
18319s uppercut combo tries to go for a grapple
18321s extension is unable to gets pryo a
18323s second time here tries to go for the 211
18326s is going to drop with the F abili coming
18327s out and one shot to finish it off jdg
18330s chuang is going to be victorious in the
18333s realm of Yang and there we go and I oh
18336s you5
18338s gifted what what what wait we're not
18342s we're not at game eight yet we still got
18344s a ways to go choang is
18348s chilling
18350s can can he do it I
18354s mean the light attacks from CH he keeps
18356s it very solid there half charge light
18358s 225 almost brings it back but he has
18360s backto back drops with the uppercut
18362s combo not able to get it but now looking
18367s at the scores no one's hit that match
18369s point yet 24.9 225 23.2 spider 21.6
18374s still a long ways to go but Fong heating
18376s up I was saying Lobby's flattening out a
18378s little bit bong up to four kills right
18381s now has that sense of urgency is on
18385s Liam can he close out this game with a
18389s couple more kills all it takes is that
18390s that first place with the 1.2 multiplier
18392s it's just it's really really competitive
18395s to CL close out these games you have the
18397s stars have to align and you have to
18399s capitalize perfectly when you have the
18402s JS that you need to you have the armor
18404s you have the good weapons R going to get
18407s parried off by Pace Pace with the overh
18409s hold going to force out the combo break
18411s and going to invest his ultimate already
18412s doesn't want to release any of this
18414s pressure but nice job from orano to
18416s immediately scale Rush Pace looking
18419s desperately trying to figure out where
18420s the sounds are coming from but orano
18422s doing a good job using that verticality
18424s to mix up his opponent disguise his
18428s location and now pace he's going to have
18430s a full reset here but aran's going to
18431s have his ultimate left online on top of
18434s the red buff two minutes left for Pace
18436s on this Yang Yang depletion and Shuan is
18438s going to be joining in now Pac in a very
18441s very tough position he's going to be
18442s split in half by these two players
18444s looking for that free kill not so free
18449s with the Yang depletion but that
18452s committed pressure when someone has y
18454s depletion they have to force the issue
18457s they have to commit to something so if
18458s you're a very trappy player this is the
18460s spot that you want to be in Pace getting
18463s absolutely smothered now forced to put
18465s it give his back to his opponents free
18468s attacks onto Pace's back going to get
18470s flanked up by shenu one and now Rano
18472s shenu one trying to guard the Wake but
18473s nice job from Pace space out a little
18475s bit goes through the ceiling but it's
18477s not going to matter Chan's waiting for
18478s this 123 and going be enjoying 225
18480s showing down to the picture Pace Now
18482s forc to pop his combo break he wants to
18484s go back to the city but the zone is
18485s coming in he does get into the building
18487s but at what cost on the opposite side
18489s again anyone going to go with the cut
18490s off play Al going to be invested by 225
18492s and he is going to come in at the last
18494s second and find that kill now can 225
18497s get over match
18498s points yeah it's looking like T225 is
18501s going to be able to he was able to snag
18503s the kill and the bloom but now asc's XY
18505s going to try and catch him out here
18507s looks like the one two is going to
18508s connect cancels the AL to get the F
18511s ability in and now 24.2 points he's
18514s still two points away and it looks like
18516s all of the attention has been turned
18518s onto asc's XY going to try and get the
18520s elimination onto ewg gono caught in the
18523s back end here is going to have to play
18525s this very well is going to end up
18526s getting himself parried though and
18528s eliminated from the game ewg zono
18530s picking up a beautiful elimination
18532s putting him on two kills in this game it
18534s was a beautiful tal as well drg Fong
18537s ready for the grief is he knows the
18540s players that he needs to take out he
18542s knows who he wants to get eliminated
18544s from this game putting the pressure up
18547s onto T225 it looks like he is going to
18550s end up letting him sneak away here T25
18553s going to try and go for the Yang portal
18555s try and get himself a pass and get
18557s himself another elimination he's at
18559s 24.7 so he is only 1.3 points away from
18564s match point it is a very attainable goal
18566s spider who is just behind him is four
18570s points away from the match point 3.9 to
18574s be exact getting very taken very very
18577s low from fpx verse who is
18580s Relentless in the pursuit here bur needs
18583s one elimination and he makes it over the
18585s threshold so the kill onto spider would
18587s be big for him but spider would not be
18589s able to make it into the match point he
18593s is going to get Tessa Charmed here this
18594s is going to be very unfortunate for him
18596s here he's going to just go up as high as
18599s possible K he gets Charmed dropping to
18601s the ground able to just oh my goodness
18604s the out play from the hottie that was a
18607s beautiful play goes High into the sky
18609s and we do see him ending up with a reset
18612s here tt25 going to get parried twice
18614s star unable to get the punish damage on
18616s the second go round you're going to see
18618s the gold nunchucks have been parried out
18620s of t5's hands he's got those he does
18625s have the uh the staff to help him out
18628s but he's unable to come away with the
18630s victory as te star with two beautiful
18633s parries coming through and winning that
18635s second R
18637s Yang now all we want to see
18640s from T225 going back to the trid and
18643s true releasing the blues releasing the0
18646s NS just try to sneak them in
18648s unfortunately for him very heavy pet per
18652s meta right now uh throwing those point9
18656s a lot of players are not fading around
18658s if you're throwing that many Focus
18660s attacks your opponent has to have a
18662s pretty high percentage of of just
18664s holding Blue of just sliding around not
18666s really committing anything for folks is
18668s ATT just like raw Focus attacks against
18671s your opponent to be very very successful
18673s now 225 is going to be fighting against
18675s who is
18677s this Fong Fong on the outside not the
18681s person you ideally want to be chasing
18682s Fong is just going to be maximum safe
18685s for this Fade Out he is going to steal
18688s away the purple spear nice Parry going
18690s to reset throw out the R&B not give the
18693s chance for 225 to break uh use his combo
18696s break to deny the damage that lump Sun
18698s nuke from the the right click is putting
18700s 225 in such a bad position half charge
18703s RB going to come out from the spear now
18706s bong is going to use his V1 and he's
18709s going to catch him that is just the
18711s power of V1 that the flash it just
18713s Scoops it has such a large hit box and
18716s he is going to catch out catch 225 and
18720s look at the leaderboard we just got
18721s verse just trying to squeak it through
18724s know he's going to be a match point but
18725s Mike 225 already taken down will spider
18728s follow suit
18730s it looks like bong is having a massive
18732s game as well R where's R we're at two
18736s kills I mean Rano can have a really big
18739s game here too he just has to keep up
18740s this
18741s momentum definitely ah slow and steady
18744s takes R 13 points he's around 10 points
18746s behind that's two games we're seeing
18750s Mike and 225 have a bad game if verse
18753s Mike 225 and spider all have a bad game
18756s this really opens up the rest of the
18757s lobby to catch up and compete for that
18760s coveted first place yeah I think verse
18763s is just going to try and kite this out
18764s as long as possible he needs 6 points so
18768s getting himself one more placement point
18769s is we're going to see the heartbreaking
18770s defeat of Mike uh earlier in the game
18774s and it's just one point away from match
18776s point you get hit with a Ballista on the
18778s other side of the wall
18780s Fong the uh being the immaculate Griefer
18783s that he is and it's not Griefer in a bad
18787s sense it's Griefer in a way that he
18789s knows how to to play the game so well
18790s that everybody every single time you die
18793s to something that he does that's
18795s absolutely crazy you you sit there in
18797s frustration and go like why why is this
18800s even a thing but he uses the elements of
18804s the game that are not your fighting
18807s style he uses the third party he uses
18809s the ballista he uses the
18812s kiing to take control of these games and
18815s become Victorious and then on top of
18817s that he's also an amazing fighter as
18820s we've seen time and time again with the
18821s fact that he just took out tt25 and now
18824s he's going to be going for spider here
18825s it looks like he isn't going to try and
18827s take that fight too quickly here but uh
18831s we are going to see that match up
18832s probably later on into the game both
18834s yangs have finished no one's on
18836s depletion everybody is still alive seven
18840s players left in the lobby sorry
18843s and
18845s nobody has Yang depletion only two or
18848s three players left in the qualifying
18850s Match Point uh area are going to be able
18853s to qualify as we're going to take a look
18855s at a little bit of a replay from uh past
18858s versus arano arano taking a lot of
18860s damage we're going to see the F come out
18862s win whs into the scale Rush doesn't hit
18864s the scale Rush the first time Pace going
18866s to hop onto the other side of the wall
18868s misses the follow up on the scare us the
18869s 1.0 is going to get released going to
18872s send the Wisps out catches him here into
18874s a sliding uppercut weapon swap over the
18877s one two going to come out the scale Rush
18879s again again we're going to see up at the
18881s top 1.0 and then into another one
18884s finishing off ss1 past in the realm of
18887s Yang ew just Rono getting himself a nice
18889s gold long sword for his troubles and
18891s Tami with the long sword it's always a
18893s lethal combo I always see it happen Mike
18897s that's how he got his nine kill game
18898s Tami and a long
18901s sword seven people
18903s left
18905s can yes
18908s ah I feel
18910s like we got two kills on spider we got
18914s the hottie why is going to have a good a
18917s good chance of getting over the Finish
18918s Line it looks like verse has called a
18921s truce with the other buff player
18924s Fong will that stay up I mean Fong is a
18928s third party connoisseur and
18931s Tessa kind of place that's at so I could
18934s see how these two could op out just like
18937s let's let's just
18940s third party the rest of this
18943s Lobby can they kind of musle out
18946s everyone for this spear well though I
18948s think it's is going to be pretty tough
18950s for for Tessa and Liam to muscle out the
18952s spe well unfortunately for spider think
18955s he's the lone hottie left in the
18958s lobby so he has his work cut out for him
18961s hottie and vaa has been getting focus
18963s fire this entire tournament so car the
18966s lobby is going to probably poke out see
18969s where the doing
18970s and looks like AIS and Fong the double
18973s Liam is going to be claiming this spe
18976s but star doesn't want to give it for
18977s free he's going to be jumping in with F2
18979s on Justina interesting play just giving
18982s up his gold F or no ultimate for nothing
18988s essentially but now everyone else is
18990s going to be jumping in arano spider
18992s who's that with the cannon Chang all
18994s poking out the Liams and now AIS already
18997s down to half Health nice Cannon shot
18999s putting on the pressure is going to have
19001s the all right now and now verse is going
19003s to match the ultimate is going to be
19006s fading out and star out of nowhere gets
19008s that V2 but AIS going to use the
19010s teleport from The Flash to get out of
19011s this situation it's not going to matter
19013s ver is going to pick up the kill ver
19014s qualified ver is going to get over that
19017s point
19019s threshold that is what we like to see
19022s ladies and gentlemen one elimination was
19024s all we needed to have one person qualify
19026s and it's fpx verse the way he's playing
19029s it doesn't it's not likely that he will
19030s be able to come away with the MVP next
19033s game but he is going to be over the
19035s threshold making it that much more
19037s difficult for these other players to
19038s take the game the distance drg Fong now
19041s in a tough spot invested his ultimate is
19044s now going to be caught out we are going
19046s to see but the Stagger is going to
19048s prevent these players from coming away
19049s with the elimination spider going to try
19051s and take the kill he does come away with
19053s the elimination picks up the Bloom gets
19055s himself a gold spear as well this is
19057s going to be a very very Lethal Weapon
19061s especially with the changes that have
19062s come to the spear become such a strong
19065s weapon it looks like spider not even
19066s concerning himself with this Spirit Well
19070s Orono going to try and go for the
19071s capture as chuang decides to hold it
19073s down spider going to contest now
19075s bringing it back around is arano nobody
19077s wanting to end up like Fong Fong had
19079s such a good run in the game five
19080s eliminations on his belt and ended up
19083s going down so fast just due to the fact
19086s that he invested his ultimate just a
19088s little bit too early early G Star no
19090s ultimate available almost has this
19092s completely contested looks like they are
19094s going to just let Star go for this back
19097s with the ultimate Chang going try and
19100s see if he can contest star just ready
19102s for the action three three lmvs in
19105s uppercut there was a little suspicious
19108s uh we're going to be jumping back in the
19110s lmb 1.0 is going to come out from Chang
19113s on the fan we're going to see it happen
19116s again star trying to go for the Parry
19117s with the gold armor swap going to come
19118s through now ch and getting dangerously
19120s low as well spider going to try and make
19121s something happen on a chuang both of
19123s these players getting very low star
19125s going to invest that Ultimate Spider
19126s going to try and go for a bit of a reset
19127s here quickly CH Jang one HP in a dream
19130s right now is going to try and jump back
19132s into this but he just dies to the Zone
19134s not wanting to give anybody else this
19136s elimination he knows that these players
19138s are very close to that match point
19141s spider needs two more kills or he needs
19144s that first place finish to Come Away
19147s with this match point and given the fact
19149s that both Liams were just taken out of
19151s the lobby it's that much more likely
19153s that he will be able to be
19159s victorious incredible ladies and
19162s gentlemen absolutely incredible we have
19165s four people left Zeb first on Tessa
19168s spider on hottie Aran on Tey and star on
19172s justtina four different characters still
19176s a lot of time though 3 minutes 48
19178s seconds no one really has to force issue
19181s right now buff is going to be coming out
19183s star gets to really cherry pick who he
19185s wants to take down it looks like he's
19187s going to be choosing the Tessa doesn't
19189s want this Tessa all to come out of
19191s nowhere and third party him he's going
19193s to put on the pressure verse just opting
19197s not to really fight back here and this
19199s is one of those weird positions that I
19202s feel like if you're going to get fied I
19206s I actually bur has a lot of terrain to
19207s work with he can ice off pressure and
19210s possibly not get hit
19212s uh I but the problem with fighting
19215s against white tiger bus there's a lot of
19216s regen on it I feel like if you do fight
19219s your your way out of this this is kind
19221s of a
19222s bluff with a lot of these players that
19225s they they want to hit you they're not
19228s going to hard commit if you fight back
19231s cuz they know that in this position
19232s first all is definitely first to
19235s lose don't want to go too crazy into
19238s here here and star immediately spider
19242s doesn't mind throwing out that army that
19243s wild Bon cuz he does have the combo
19245s break and star in a weird position
19247s spider can keep up the pressure looks
19249s like spider is going to be backing off
19250s as well potty doesn't want to get Focus
19252s fired as a backup blue armor right now
19254s it looks like everyone's just going to
19255s ice off wait their turnout wait to see
19259s what everyone does white tiger still on
19262s the field right now 14 seconds left on
19266s to uh star and star
19270s really really needs to get things going
19273s right now he is in a decent spot he
19276s hasn't had the best day if there's a
19278s time to wake up the time is now though
19280s two minutes are on the clock zone is
19283s closing in how does Tessa find a win in
19286s this situation Tessa does do a really
19288s good job versus hottie but can
19292s star
19294s capitalize will we see that same success
19298s uh with star Justina just like versus
19301s wait waiting patiently to commit his all
19303s and find those last hits at the end or
19306s will spider just come out with the
19308s default win with the hottie possibly
19311s putting on a mash Point tying up with
19314s verse it's so difficult to say at this
19317s point I'm hoping we see spider pick up
19319s at least one more and get the first
19321s place finished so that we have at least
19323s two players on Match Point uh my my
19327s prediction was if at least three players
19329s were on Match Point then we uh we had a
19332s game six to or game seven
19336s ending so uh I believe that we need at
19339s least one more spider has the ability to
19342s do this we've seen him do it time and
19344s time again verse on the
19347s Tessa you know one Tessa charm could end
19352s it all the the triple connect Tessa
19355s charm or the uh the triple hit from the
19359s freeze Justina from te star could also
19363s be a possibility we also have the teal
19366s to consider the control over the zone
19368s that you have with the tal is incredible
19371s combo breaker burned from spider as the
19373s circle is growing incredibly small we
19376s are going to see these players starting
19377s to try and take to the sky spider trying
19379s to get The High Ground is going to end
19380s up dropping forced to pop that Al first
19382s and this is a problem ladies and
19384s gentlemen we are going to see him miss
19386s the Tessa Al though verse was able to
19389s avoid the Tesa ultimate and it looks
19391s like uh we are going to see them falling
19393s to the bottom oh it looks like he was
19394s hit by something here the uh the Tami
19397s wind the Tami whst and now we go here we
19400s go the Justina freeze coming through
19402s verse takes out spider star is going to
19405s pick up one elimination on a verse and
19407s aono goes out to Zone
19411s what what the my
19414s goodness spider just nonchalant just
19419s going to take those just like that out
19421s of nowhere just close
19424s out this this game but
19427s ver not looking very satisfied he knows
19430s that these tournaments is
19432s his and this is what I was saying except
19435s I don't
19436s know feel like you got to play for
19438s points and still play this very slow you
19440s saw the bottom half of the lobby
19441s definitely pick up the peso well like so
19444s I was saying uh because of that long
19448s tech pause
19449s a lot of the the bom at the lobby was
19451s going to wake up and do super well while
19454s everyone who red hot doing super well
19456s versus Mike was going to cool off a
19458s little bit and we see a little bit of
19461s troll coming out from Mike off spawn he
19464s gets bisted by
19465s Fong yeah and that's one of the
19468s unfortunate things to happen and uh
19470s we're following a sort of pattern here
19472s Raven we had our first game was won by
19474s tt25 our second game was won by Fong
19477s then our third game went to mik so if
19481s pattern servs correct game five game
19484s four went to T25 game five is now going
19487s to f game six if the pattern servs
19490s correct we will be seeing Mike take game
19493s number six uh I love my patterns it
19496s would be interesting if we do see that
19498s happen as uh each one of these players
19501s who's mvpd has been winning only on the
19503s map that they MVP on the first time Fong
19506s winning both hollo games the first one
19508s he did play as zipping second one on the
19516s uh well fun was
19518s playing Fun was
19521s uh yeah regardless he had a great game
19524s you know put up five eliminations and
19525s then even though he did go out early he
19527s was on the Liam he was he was playing
19528s Liam though he did go out early
19530s investing that ultimate uh very fast in
19533s that Spirit Well he still managed to
19536s pick up five eliminations in the early
19538s and mid game winning his RM of yangs
19540s been super aggressive taking out tt25
19542s off the Yang depletion and he was able
19544s to come through with a beautiful
19547s game yeah Fong really specializes in the
19550s pickoff play style Liam is definitely a
19552s picking off character Matari is Tessa is
19556s um technically V2 Justina is v1's a
19558s little bit harder you have to play a lot
19560s of
19561s counterplay but these characters Fong
19563s has has done done super well uh but as
19568s far as match point
19569s I believe is it verse verse was the only
19572s one who able to get over yeah the the
19574s finish line to get onto that match point
19577s now does he take it I was not going to
19580s try hard I was like does verse really
19582s really take this he's definitely really
19584s surprising as far as how consistent he's
19587s being today and we're so accustomed to
19591s this mic showing up big I'm not going to
19593s lie verse has been solid like who can
19596s slow down this man I said it before
19601s and even even the the tech Paws didn't
19604s slow down verse the the tech paw
19606s actually slow down Mike Mike makes a big
19609s blunder there I I might have to say if
19611s I'm Mike I'm definitely reeling dying to
19614s a Ballista uh is a pretty big blunder
19618s just CU it's very easy to know where the
19620s Bist are and just Zone it out plus you
19622s always see that your opponent's on it
19625s um what's funny though Ze is that during
19628s be because of the rule change I've seen
19631s a lot more ballistic kills just because
19633s of how Reckless people are off spawn but
19636s speaking of Reckless uh we're going to
19638s be having our first question don't or
19641s another question for you guys do not be
19643s Reckless which player killed ug Mike in
19646s game five we were just talking about
19648s this was it JL AIS b fpx z Q's verse C
19654s x1's woong or D sc's drg's F that's
19659s crazy that I literally was just talking
19661s about
19662s this yeah this is kind of a dead G
19665s giveaway for you guys ladies and
19666s gentlemen we were just talking about
19667s this in first place our MVP for game
19670s number five is going to be drg Spong
19672s with five kills with one ranking point
19674s the full game score of six star is going
19677s to be our last person standing getting
19679s that multiplier putting him up to 2.4
19681s kill points with a three ranking points
19683s at 5.4 spider going to be in third with
19686s a three and a 1.5 putting him at 4 .5
19690s standings for the overall standings
19692s ladies and gentlemen is going to be XY
19694s in 12 star in 11 we're going to see
19697s wufong in 10th Hast is going to be in
19701s ninth arano in eighth and seventh place
19704s is going to go to AIS with
19707s 17.4 we're going to be taking a look at
19709s 6 through 1 and this is going to be an
19711s interesting to see how the standings
19713s have changed with this game we know that
19716s verse is on top at 28.4 spider should be
19719s directly behind him and with Mike not
19722s far behind I believe it's a couple
19724s points off the 25 points for Mike 24.7
19728s for ch25
19730s 24.1 for spider
19732s 20.9 for Fong and 18 for
19736s chuang first place to fifth place all
19739s have the opportunity to come away
19741s Victorious by game
19744s seven uh can verse do it he gets a free
19747s roll right now
19749s it it's really on burst this is his best
19752s situation to possibly ship his first big
19757s win he's done the work to get here now
19761s he just have to close it out now
19763s everyone else we've seen the familiar
19765s names if you give them time they will
19767s clutch up in this position but I was
19769s saying Ze it's very very tough the lobby
19772s is very very competitive it's hard to
19774s get to that match point and we've seen
19776s it time and time again it goes the
19778s distance we go to game eight now looking
19781s at the highlights of the game brought to
19783s you by Thunder robot born for gaming
19786s we're seeing Mike oh the face the double
19789s the double face bom just can't believe
19791s we died to the bz now F going big with
19794s the scale rush through with the followup
19798s R&B nice job fromong to recognize his
19801s opponent's stagger there start with the
19805s B2 Justina able to destroy 2 5 the
19809s gimmick is just too fast 225 not able to
19812s get that momentum going
19813s frustrated from his blunder there spider
19818s playing this end game
19820s perfectly with the hottie but
19822s unfortunately again that Justina from
19826s Star the B2 just so easy to land just so
19830s oppressive when everyone is not ready
19833s for it everyone's so accustom to that V1
19834s when the V2 comes out it's just that
19837s guaranteed stagger guaranteed Focus
19839s attack star does a good job of securing
19842s some kills there but the MVP of the
19844s round is going to be going to your third
19847s party specialist your assassin himself
19850s he does go in G this time with the Liam
19853s but Dr G pong with the fan doing it big
19857s he's been doing it with fan and Dagger
19859s for as long as we've known
19863s him and MVP 11 times this season season
19869s can he bring it back we've seen fong in
19872s this position
19873s before does I feel like when Fong
19876s doesn't have his assassin characters he
19879s does slow down in momentum it's it's
19880s some in Reverse verse is very big on his
19883s Justina his Matari but he he slows down
19886s when he's not on his dueling characters
19888s he loves his dueling characters when it
19890s comes to getting those big points game
19892s but so far he's done the homework he's
19894s looking really dialed in and I would say
19898s if I going to lose this situation lose
19900s this B is that verse is going to rise to
19902s the occasion he's not going to choke in
19904s this spot and the The Familiar names
19906s we're so accustomed to who bring it back
19909s in this position are going to let verse
19911s to it but I got to say SE if you're the
19914s only person on Match Point it's hard to
19916s win because everyone's going to scout
19918s you out and figure out exactly who
19920s you're playing this game yeah it it is
19923s going to be very very difficult for
19924s verse to do it we've seen people do it
19926s before I've seen spider Come Away with
19928s mat point and then win the next game but
19932s we haven't seen anybody else pull it off
19934s so I'm really hoping we are going to get
19936s to see burst pull it off this game it'
19939s be absolutely amazing uh we do have two
19941s extra games to play but ladies and
19943s gentlemen we're going to be right back
19944s with game six we're going to go for a
19946s little bit of a break and we'll see you
19947s in a sec
19964s SH now
20019s what
20132s we
20203s last night ladies and gentlemen welcome
20207s back to some npra pro league solo finals
20211s I am Raven py and I am joined by The
20213s Splendid the wonderful Seb and it's been
20216s a splendid day of solo Seb I cannot
20220s believe this we might be living in a
20223s world where verse dominates I feel like
20225s I really think that the tech pause Mike
20228s was on fire and we he got iced off now
20230s technically verse was in the same
20232s boat like both of these guys had
20235s momentum but verse he he got over the
20238s hill that match point I was telling you
20240s it comes down to one point if you mess
20242s that up it's really tilting to not get
20245s over that match point can Mike deal with
20248s the Tilt and get through this game
20251s six yeah the the fact that we slowed
20254s down before game five it definitely
20256s threw everybody's energy off ver was
20258s able to power through and Come Away with
20260s that match point but will he be able to
20263s power through again and get himself an
20265s MVP because he was able to get himself a
20267s kill but he was nowhere near MVP for
20269s that game yeah he's got the Chanel
20272s frames
20274s on he's hasn't used his double pick yet
20278s I'm pretty sure he's pretty high up in
20280s selection so it's looking pretty good
20282s for him here he's locked in ready to go
20285s you know the designer makes him see
20287s better
20289s so it's like the woing keyboard of look
20292s good feel glasses
20294s exactly look good feel good play good
20298s win
20300s good that's the mod for today be
20304s good be good oh man you you can see oh
20308s you see it on Mike's body language I'm
20310s telling you one point is so tilting mhm
20314s he he was looking ferocious same thing
20317s with wuon I mean I wuang is looking for
20319s roas he's not having as much success
20321s we're seeing I feel like normally we saw
20324s boredom out of spider like his look
20327s we're seeing concern at him this is the
20329s spider I'm normally used to where it
20332s doesn't really matter that spider looks
20334s concerned or anything but I feel like
20336s the the ice cold spider from this season
20339s is definitely performing a lot better
20341s when he goes to that mental Zone it's
20344s hard not to show how badly he wants this
20347s especially going in into Worlds he been
20350s chasing this to to show his dominance
20353s that he can do this against Mike and
20355s he's won these some of these bi-weeks
20357s 225 as well you see I I I see him just
20361s like holding his breath he's like no way
20363s this is like my best spot we started out
20364s the day strong we got two MVPs he's like
20367s this could be my time right now and you
20369s can see him he's digging deep right now
20371s you can see it in his eyes he's digging
20373s deep he wants this really bad and I
20376s still think Ze
20378s everyone's so close in skill anyone can
20380s take this I I don't think verse just has
20383s this in the bag right now he has a lot
20385s of killers is coming for him and gunning
20387s for him this next round and it's really
20390s going to show of whether or not it is
20391s his time he has to to pull off a miracle
20394s this next round it's not going to be an
20396s easy one for him to MVP this round no
20399s it's going to be incredibly difficult
20400s for him to be able to MVP this
20402s and if he there's there's a lot of
20405s things that have to go right for this to
20407s work he he's got to get his double pick
20410s on the meta hero that he wants to play
20413s number one he's got to uh have Circle
20417s fall his way he has offs spawn fall his
20419s way loot has to go his way uh everything
20423s needs to go his way and the first thing
20427s is he has first round selection oh that
20429s that's pretty big that's huge actually
20431s it's actually huge especially that he's
20434s going to be on the same hero as Spider
20436s who could be doing family meta for him
20440s in the end game if they stay alive and
20442s spider survivability is usually pretty
20445s high when it comes to the end game even
20447s if he doesn't get a lot of kills he is
20449s still usually in that end game getting
20453s that survivability in those placements
20455s so we are going to be taking a look to
20457s see what these players are going to
20460s select are they going to pick the same
20462s or are they going to pick different
20463s hottie coming out for verse I believe
20465s spider has already played hottie tamy so
20468s who is going to be the hottie to partner
20470s up with verse unless they all don't pick
20474s hottie so that they know that versus the
20477s hottie this could be the play here for
20482s them what the another Tami Justina I
20486s mean Tam is a really good counter to
20489s hottie too it's very hard for hottie to
20491s get value just cuz if you off angle your
20493s ultimate you guarantee put hottie inside
20497s the wind wall it's cuz it takes so much
20499s time for hottie to take flight that he's
20501s very very vulnerable as long as you know
20503s how to do the
20504s angle now he is going to be in phase one
20508s I wonder if they're going to be able to
20509s put together of what character he's
20511s actually on right now genan is going to
20514s be on hotti that's definitely a good
20515s teammate to have still Shuan really
20517s really good in multi-way fights can he
20520s heat up he he's been a little bit more
20522s quiet than he normally has been in the
20525s past and that mulle matar's as well I
20528s mean we've seen this mix of the lobby
20530s before Matari definitely a big pain in
20534s the butt for hottie the teleport
20536s especially when she has long sword has a
20539s lot of good coverage can really catch
20541s out hot's Dodges when he's going up but
20544s this is do or die for verse right now
20546s this could be his moment right now you
20547s see it in his eyes like he knows this is
20550s it he's taking a deep breath doesn't
20552s look like he's necessarily nervous but I
20555s feel like the how big this moment is
20558s he's going to remember this moment for a
20560s while now knowing that it's very very
20563s hard to get to this spot and when you're
20565s here you need to
20566s capitalize and it's all coming down to
20569s this ladies and gentlemen we're going to
20570s take a look at what ultimate
20572s abilities play in and what uh F
20577s abilities these players are going to be
20578s using it's going to be pretty standard
20580s for most of
20581s the variations and I don't think we're
20585s going to see anything out too far out
20587s out of the ordinary fun is going to be
20589s running that F1 Justina I love that play
20592s started utilizing that in my own games
20594s cuz I thought it was absolutely genius
20596s the F1 over the combo break giving
20599s yourself a little bit of Shield
20600s especially when it comes to those
20601s endgame circles it is
20604s very very helpful even just that little
20607s tiny bit of your gold shield healing
20609s back up as uh we're also seeing
20611s everything else very very standard no
20613s V2s on the uh Liams it's all going to be
20617s F1 V1 F2 V2 for our AOS F2 V2 for our uh
20622s potties the justinas are going to be the
20625s only outliers F2 V1 for past and F1 V2
20630s for Fong F1 V3 for our tamies and the
20634s rest is history ladies and gentlemen we
20636s are going to be jumping into game number
20638s six on celestra and if tradition Falls
20641s right and the pattern keeps going Mike
20644s is going to win this game with a crazy
20647s amount of
20648s eliminations or we could see it happen
20653s where fpx verse is going to be Crown our
20656s solo Grand finals champion at the end of
20660s this game these players are going to be
20661s spawning all towards the northern side
20663s of the map just above celesa we've got a
20665s couple players spawning near money got
20667s some players spawning just by even TI
20669s Temple and the rest in the gold Zone
20671s surrounding we're getting ready to jump
20674s into this JL the furthest side the
20677s furthest west player that we are going
20681s to see the furthest East player is going
20683s to be spider spawning pretty isolated
20686s but he is decently close to tt25 and
20688s aano if he wants fight off spawn this is
20693s the moment we've all been waiting for it
20695s breaks down to this fpx verse needs to
20698s have a good game he's in between Fong
20701s and he doesn't have a weapon this is not
20704s ideal ladies and gentlemen he's got
20705s himself a dagger he's got himself some
20706s blue armor F ability invested already
20709s huge Barry coming out here on to Fong is
20712s not going to invest the F though does
20714s get stuck on terrain oh my goodness no
20717s there he is going to be coming this back
20719s he did get the fireflies that's that's
20721s actually really really big bong is going
20722s to make it back to these buildings right
20724s now he can find the armor reset but
20726s verse staying on top of it verse is
20728s known for his Katana jumping lmb going
20730s to cover the the disengage and the half
20733s charge R&B oh my goodness right in front
20735s of Fong was that blue on my reset it's
20737s not going to matter is it versus timer
20738s now he's up to one kill Mike you saw man
20741s I can see the T in his face he can't
20743s believe he died to a Ballista that
20744s that's the eyes of someone who died to a
20746s Ballista Pace with the dagger not able
20750s Mike not able to secure the kill onto
20751s Pace star going to come in with that
20753s Dash to onto Matari now Chang is going
20755s to eat the AL of Mike but only one more
20758s charge for him Chang now fading out
20760s going to double jump and go for the F2
20764s mik going have to slow this down now in
20766s the really really tough position choang
20768s on the AO ultimate so much Advantage St
20771s for him and now star going to be coming
20772s in F is going to be invested for Mike
20774s he's going to try to fade out from here
20775s those Focus ATT attack's going to be
20776s coming in jumping lb is going to come
20778s out trying to get that last hit he is
20780s going to be a to get that last hit but
20781s ver showing up to the party right now
20783s but star is going to seal the kill now
20785s star on the Matari B bait out with the
20787s great sword switching to the dagger goes
20789s for the overh with the F2 going to get a
20791s nice big poke damage onto ver but ver is
20793s going to get a big Parry no combo break
20795s for Matari he is going to be able to pop
20797s UL but first still has his all butar
20799s does have a good Edge onto hottie but
20803s out in the open right now in a one V one
20804s situation hotti can match the ultimate
20808s of star on the Matari star trying to
20811s fade out with this grade sword going to
20814s be fading up looks for the overh hold
20816s R&B not a lot of options here with the
20819s grade sword and verse 1 point5 Perry is
20822s going to put star in the uppercut combo
20825s catches the cross big mistake coming out
20827s star and burst up to two kills is this
20829s going to be the MVP round for him Seb oh
20832s my goodness he almost had about four
20833s there if he would have gotten the third
20835s party kill onto Mike and then get the
20838s other elimination onto the aost of
20840s chuang as we are going to see jumping
20842s back into the mix of things K's tt25 he
20845s needs he's gotten himself one
20847s elimination he's at 25.7 he needs 3
20850s points wbg spider needs what something
20855s 1.9 points c25 now on the back boat
20858s we're going to see the third party
20859s coming in from spider spider trying to
20860s make something happen and now ver
20862s jumping into the mix going to try and
20863s see if he can make something happen here
20865s see if he can get the elimination it
20867s looks like Aron's going to pick up the
20868s kill on to T225 first going to try and
20871s see if he can get some pistol shots off
20872s both of these players getting caught by
20874s the Wisp first not able to deal damage
20876s though we are going to see though spider
20878s picking up an elimination beautiful kill
20880s that he picks up and now he's got
20882s himself 25.1 points he is now9 points
20886s away from away with that match point
20888s qualification verse two eliminations on
20891s the board going to try and see if he can
20892s get the third party off onto this does
20894s get caught in the whis and the pistol
20896s shots are going to follow from AIS we're
20898s going to see the overh hold comes
20899s through AIS able to deal a lot of damage
20902s through this overh hold but the F
20903s ability is going to negate lots of it as
20906s verse will still try and make something
20908s happen goes for the grapple the overh is
20909s going to come through and connect verse
20911s now going to pop the ultimate better be
20912s safe than sorry is going to go for the
20914s chase now AIS already almost has
20916s ultimate back so this could be a
20918s dangerous fight to go into he knows that
20920s the temal was down but the amount of
20921s time that's been taken oh my goodness
20923s he's close to death AIS forcing him to
20926s back out here with the teol invested and
20929s now spider is going to get caught in the
20930s whis with the overh hold coming through
20933s oh my goodness could this be crazy bur
20935s going to get one he's going to lose the
20937s bloom to spider though he comes through
20939s with a beautiful third party kill with a
20942s purple great swword in hand is going to
20944s just switch back to the dagger quickly
20946s what is going on tried to go for the
20948s dual blades here we are going to see him
20950s bring that back around we're going to
20952s see spider just trying to go for these
20953s crazy pares here as is baiting all of
20956s this out AIS jumping back into the mix
20959s of this fight as well we're going to see
20961s verse ending up using that F ability to
20962s try and kite out of here but now verse
20964s getting tossed up into the sky the overh
20966s hold going to come through both of them
20967s Clank leaving verse to be able to get
20969s away pretty quickly we are going to see
20971s the scale Rush come out and ver escaping
20973s with his life oh my God Ren it's
20975s happening
20977s dude that was one of the luckiest
20979s situations ever vers when the middle of
20982s two Focus attacks both of the focus
20983s attacks W he's in the middle end up
20985s clanking so he takes no damage this
20989s might be his time you need a little bit
20992s of luck in these situations I mean the
20994s first three kills were definitely not
20996s luck but that situation right there
20998s surviving that spot super super lucky
21001s and he's up to three kill right now can
21003s star stop this I mean 225 and spider
21005s both up to one kill we're still will not
21007s pass this first Rumble Yang there's
21009s still a lot of narak going to be played
21010s right now but ver definitely sitting
21013s really pretty he knows he has this in
21016s his grasp he has momentum in his favor
21019s are we going to be ending it on a game
21021s six on the likes of verse he's finally
21025s able to transcend man 225 has been
21028s trying to do the same thing verse has
21029s been doing for even longer but verse
21032s from the third place to first place
21034s going to skip that whole second place
21037s bang he wants to go and shift this one
21039s right now already up to three but it's
21041s going to come down to this R first r r
21043s Seb he has to win this first one and
21046s with uh he doesn't get this first ticket
21049s and you don't get free realm of yangs
21051s anymore he's already going to be spacing
21053s out possibly look to uh play for spe
21056s ball play for a stash just cuz
21059s especially this late into the tournament
21060s it's really hard to get in that first
21062s realm of Yang yeah the he wasn't able to
21066s reach the pass before his fellow hottie
21068s and all ending it without ultimate
21070s against a the same hero is just not
21073s something that you want to be doing uh
21075s Spider not going to be able to get
21076s himself into the r of gang though as it
21078s looks like he's taking a barrage of
21080s pistol shots from Chang spider going to
21083s go ahead and take a bit of a reset back
21085s up into celester we're going to see one
21087s player already entering the ryang it
21089s looks like we are going to see verse
21091s going for the cave unlock going to get
21094s himself a few gold Jades but Rano going
21097s to come in sneaky here we do have that
21099s fire cage we saw spider hit it in a
21102s previous game so verse now going to head
21106s over try and see if he can hit portal
21107s and it looks like two players went in as
21109s soon as he tries to go through now we're
21111s going into the realm of Yang drg's fun
21114s versus asc's XY we're going to see fan
21117s versus nunchuck here B blue armor versus
21120s purple armor scale Rush going to come
21122s through fun just a master of the scale
21124s Rush flipping over to the Dual hirs to
21126s try and see if he can pull off some
21127s combos we're going to see the F1
21128s invested into getting a bit of Health
21130s back here we're going to see him try and
21132s make something happen goes for the 1.0
21134s is going to be able to connect the F
21135s ability invested from XY overh hold
21137s going to happen Parry bait comes out a
21139s second time pryo is going to connect XY
21142s get the two11
21144s perfectly now drg Funk is going to try
21148s and go for a pot and it looks like we're
21149s going to see the F1 come out meanwhile
21152s the burn take damage could be a bit of a
21154s factor here this was able to get himself
21156s a little bit of healing back we do still
21159s have that justtina Al available but he's
21160s going to hold on to it for as long as
21162s possible doesn't want to have to invest
21163s right away we see the AL come out now
21166s and now it is all Fong's game he's going
21168s to be able to hit the freeze off doesn't
21170s get the followup damage though as XY
21174s doing a beautiful job of hitting that F
21175s ability not going to let fun heal and
21177s this WOW XY doing a beautiful job at
21181s keeping Fong Under Wraps we're going to
21182s see the pry come through but Focus so no
21184s stun is going to come through we do have
21186s that one freeze still he does miss the
21188s freeze but he's going to get him in the
21189s air one more hit drg fun turns the fight
21192s around and oh my goodness XY gets sent
21195s back to the soul
21197s alter man tough break for shenyuan man
21201s he he's always done really really well
21203s during the weeklys in his real of yangs
21206s but not really showing up today when it
21208s really really counts bong is showing up
21212s and normally he's on the outside but
21214s when he gets on his dueling characters
21216s he is will to go into that R Yang his is
21218s f or V2 justtina doing really really
21221s well now star up to two kills he's the
21223s only one who could really contest verse
21225s right now same with Pace but he pace and
21229s start end up trading kills right here so
21231s Pace moves up to three kills on his
21233s justtina he needs to make sure that
21236s verse doesn't get this MVP and what a
21239s great position Justina versus hottie
21240s really really good for this end game I
21242s don't know if we go to this end game
21243s though everyone's swinging for the moon
21245s right now everyone's taking a shot at
21248s getting a high kill game right now
21251s shenan with that yion 3 minutes 30
21253s seconds going to be finding wuang right
21255s now they're going to Parry off we know
21258s that we both need a soul room right now
21260s F's going to be invested from wuang
21262s combo break going to come out nice
21263s grapple Sager going to come out from
21264s Chen one looking for another half charge
21267s sagger not able to get it he going to
21269s release that folks attack in but nice
21271s scale Rush getting out of there wuon
21274s going to get a nice reset here but
21276s shenan going to get the armor reset and
21278s we're going on to round two versus these
21280s guys actually no we're not going to go
21282s into round two third part is going to be
21283s coming out for Millions buff onto drg's
21286s Fong bong up to one kill right now he
21289s knows uh he needs to get kills but he's
21293s not going to be impatient with it he's
21295s just going to stay active stay hunting
21297s uh and this this is one of those
21299s situations where now you need to have
21303s offense you need to have that gear you
21305s need to make sure that you keep your
21307s destiny in your own hands cuz if you
21310s don't take a risk right now there's a
21312s chance that I believe only only whoever
21318s is in versus Space has a good idea of
21321s which character he's on right now and
21323s and that's only spider and spider didn't
21325s go hottie right now so it is a little
21328s bit ambiguous of who verse is right now
21331s and verse you would think at this point
21333s he would be a little bit conservative my
21334s man is flooring he is going for it he
21338s wants more
21340s kills he doesn't even have Vermilion
21342s buff right now he's acting like he has
21344s Yang depletion he's feing so hard yeah
21347s he's he's getting a little bit too
21349s aggressive here he's starting to heat up
21350s and Fong is noticing that and taking
21352s charge decided to give him a few taps
21355s with the gold spear just to check him
21357s you know Vibe check see what was going
21359s on see how uh first was trying to play
21362s into this situation now we've got a
21364s hotel invested here as XY ready for the
21367s AL we do see the Liam ultimate getting
21369s invested now as well we are going to see
21371s x1's Wang trying to kite out with the
21373s Liam ultimate we are going to see now
21375s verse doing a beautiful job and knowing
21377s exactly where that ultimate's going to
21378s land him ver now going to get back into
21382s this we're going to see him oh he misses
21384s the grapple no way he's not going to
21387s follow him
21388s in I I totally thought we'd see verse
21390s follow him in there as uh looks like
21392s buang is going to actually be able to
21394s heal up and get back into the zone
21397s so this could have been this could
21399s actually be the smart play of ver not
21401s jumping the gun going into the zone and
21403s potentially getting third party as soon
21405s as he gets out yeah I I feel like diving
21408s in there with so many people there
21409s you're definitely going to get a held
21410s Zone super super risky in this position
21413s especially with how ooly and aggressive
21414s everyone is 45 seconds on shenu one
21417s going to be a tough position to cure
21418s this Yang depletion someone has to make
21420s a critical ER here back to back pares
21422s possibly but 35 seconds time is ticking
21424s genuine you got to force the issue right
21426s now n's trying to close the distance on
21429s jl's AIS but anyone having a tough time
21432s right now gold def's going to be
21433s invested by tamy he is going to be able
21435s to keep it moving switches to the fan
21437s tries to get the scale R up Perry's a 1
21438s 2 three not to get up he's going to
21439s force out the Tei Al shenu one down to
21443s 16 seconds 15 seconds needs to find a
21445s kill right now desperate for anything
21447s going to throw the one charge out going
21448s to throw a light attack out not able to
21450s get it R showing up into the T old shenu
21452s one just going to be trying to ice off
21453s the pressure here down to 5 Seconds who
21455s is going to fall into whoever gets his
21457s last hit is going to pick up a free kill
21459s but Shuan does a good job of fading out
21462s but aano will pick up this kill up to
21465s two kills I believe now multiple players
21467s in contention for verse not to MVP this
21470s round but still 10 people alive still a
21472s lot of Nar to be played can verse sneak
21474s in this win Seb I I think he can do it I
21478s think it's going to be tough but I think
21480s he can do it he's on three eliminations
21482s Fong is still only on one kill Fong is
21484s going to end up chasing this into the
21486s zone I want verse to be able to come
21487s away with this
21489s elimination we if we do see Fong follow
21491s into the zone and lose a lot of HP this
21493s could be very detrimental for him he's
21495s following pretty close and uh the verse
21499s is not too far
21501s behind we do see the kill go to Fong
21504s Fong is going to end up healing getting
21506s out of there verse now in
21508s trouble we get him to go into Yang or we
21511s not we don't see Yang here it looks like
21513s Yang might have been full Fong could be
21515s going for yang as uh it looks like we
21518s are going to see chuang and past gold
21521s halber just left to the wind and it
21523s looks like Chiang on the long sword with
21526s the crazy combos PA going to try and go
21528s back for those dual Hollow Birds he
21530s knows how important that gold weapon is
21531s is going to be able to get the freeze
21533s into the charged lmb be able to connect
21536s with that but the F ability from Chu
21538s Jang is going to be able to give that
21540s hit stun just enough and then that one
21542s to the jumping lmb is going to connect
21544s Chang taking out Pace in the second
21546s round of Yang to eliminate him send him
21549s to the soul alter and put him on that
21551s Yang depletion
21553s timer and nice job from Chang making
21555s sure to keep up the pressure just the
21557s oppression from the tech Chase of the
21560s long sword if you over Dodge versus long
21563s sword you're going to have a bad time
21566s you just got to hold that blue Force the
21568s long sword to release the folks attacks
21570s that's the one weakness of long sword
21573s it's Focus attacks aren't very good once
21575s you space it out they they are slow
21577s enough to whiff punish if you dodge off
21579s the line of attack since they're very
21581s very narrow and if he tries to hold a
21583s horizontal you can Crouch under it just
21585s the focus attacks of long sword pretty
21587s troll the what Chang had going for him
21591s though on the acos the the F2 just adds
21593s a little bit more pressure that overh
21595s holding Blue could possibly net you
21598s getting staggered which forces you into
21600s an uppercut combo anyway so tough
21602s position good on chuang also able to tie
21605s it up to three kills Ching Pace they are
21608s The Gatekeepers for verse and his
21610s Destiny if he so want if he wants to
21613s seiz it right now he did come off spawn
21617s super super aggressive he's going to
21618s have to keep that going didn't get into
21621s that first Rumble Yang now the question
21623s is SE does he go for this second real of
21626s Yang does he risk it all cuz he's in a
21628s position where technically could play
21630s Endgame I feel like winning second R of
21632s Yang pretty much it increases his
21635s percentage uh of MVP I think at least
21639s double well second R gang is already
21642s finished second R Yang yeah Chang just
21645s got gold armor out of
21648s Yang spirit Spirit Well is his next next
21651s spir Spirit Well is his only play yeah
21653s we um his XY uh Shuan has uh has been
21659s eliminated so his hotti partner is not
21661s going to be able to help him in this end
21663s Circle he's is going to need to get
21665s Spirit W be be able to keep space have
21667s that armor swap as well super useful for
21671s him he needs chuang well paste is going
21674s to go out pretty quickly here with the
21676s Yang depletion or has the potential to
21677s go out pretty quickly three minutes left
21680s um and he needs Pace to go out he needs
21684s Chiang to get third partied and then he
21688s needs Fong and arano to not get any
21692s eliminations leave the kills pretty
21694s spread out amongst the rest of them and
21696s most of the kills going to verse there's
21698s very good chance of this happening he's
21700s he's going to try and kite it out and
21701s play very closely to the vest until end
21704s game and then all in is that we are
21707s going to see now past and try and make
21708s something happen it looks like verse is
21710s going to be on the outskirts of the map
21711s nowhere near the action as a pace does
21714s need to come away with some sort of an
21715s elimination here very
21719s fast watch him run watch him run right
21722s into the arms of fpx verse pick f verse
21727s can pick up his fourth kill on the paste
21729s then we call it a
21732s day and we we're slowing down again like
21735s I expect everyone to to Slug It Out but
21738s everyone's playing this nice and tight
21741s no one wants to overextend in this spot
21743s both choang and Pace in a good position
21746s to keep it going but I think Pace has
21748s Yang depletion he does two minutes left
21751s he
21752s does did he pick up the Challenger buff
21755s that a little little bit of glowing he
21756s needs to find a kill right now he's not
21759s really
21760s revealing how desperate he is for the
21763s Yang depletion a nice job like
21765s pretending that he doesn't he's not
21767s desperate he's he's kind of searching
21769s for a nice opening right now before he
21772s starts feing it's just what this is one
21774s of the big adjustments I I've noticed in
21776s solos is that you don't want to really
21779s reveal that you have Yang depletion CU
21782s then everyone starts running away from
21784s you really really quickly and then they
21787s also prep to finish you off and just
21789s last hit you the most ideal way to
21791s finish someone off with Yang depletion
21793s is not really risk taking the the raw 1
21795s V one versus them instead let the timer
21798s start going out and just last hit you to
21800s make it very very easy with very very
21802s little risk getting that little little
21804s bit of poke by spacing you out is going
21806s to be a lot safer and now Pace down to
21809s one
21810s minute a minute is not enough time to
21813s lock someone down and finish them off
21815s especially if they're at 100% Health uh
21818s you need to have at least 2 minutes to
21820s burn through someone's cool downs and
21822s and then lock them down with the chase
21824s down but Pace has has made his bed he's
21827s going to have to sleep in this one he's
21828s going to pop the ultimate he's going to
21829s go put the sagger onto around gets that
21831s freeze off up com com now ra oranos is
21834s getting full all in right now but he is
21835s on the target he's going to use that F2
21837s to come flying out he's not going to be
21838s able to get it wait a minute Oran does
21841s come back and gets the kill and now
21845s arano I believe it's up to four kills
21848s right now is is that up three kills
21850s right now so multiple players at to
21852s three kills but Pace will fall being
21854s replaced by Rano first has his work cut
21856s out for him eight people left can he
21858s find one or two kills to secure this
21861s MVP and yeah this is this is the the the
21864s million dooll question will he be able
21866s to pull this off and it it's going to
21869s it's too early to tell oh he gets Spirit
21872s wall for free no way he no way he gets
21875s this for free
21877s they let him have Spirit well here he's
21879s he's Rono is going to contest
21882s here first going to be able to get
21884s himself a huge uppercut combo holding
21886s space very very well here he's very
21888s close to getting
21889s this is going to get oh he has Spirit
21892s Well it's over it's over he's got the
21894s spirit well it's only Mystic might but
21897s he's he's going to get he's going to get
21899s ugly here ready for these fights going
21902s to try and get this elimination as fast
21905s as possible folks all of his energy on a
21907s chang F ability going to get invested
21908s quickly here tries to go for the scale
21910s Rush is going to end up getting blocked
21911s by terrain but he does have Mystic might
21913s he knows where his opponents are going
21915s to be and which way they are going to be
21917s heading overh hold is going to connect
21919s verse in a bit of a tricky spot now he
21922s is far away from his gold armor reset so
21924s he should probably start playing a
21926s little bit more uh territorial they're
21928s going to see him try and get this
21930s elimination here as chuang going to go
21933s for that jump R&B connect first going to
21935s go for bit of a heal is going to end up
21937s getting hit out this is bad right now
21939s this is not the greatest situation he
21941s wants to be in here is going to end up
21943s getting hit by a Tessa charm now this
21945s could be a lot of trouble for him here F
21947s ability going to be invested he's is
21949s going to end up getting stunned out here
21950s ultimate is going to get invested pretty
21952s quickly if he's able to oh top Dodge
21954s rolls out of here drg's F going to pick
21956s up his third elimination and we're going
21958s to see fpx verse jumping far away from
21962s this fight and it looks like Fong was
21963s able to pick up another kill bringing
21965s him to four eliminations and this is not
21968s what verse wants to see here he knows
21970s that this Justina has picked up two
21972s eliminations now the only Justina left
21974s in the lobby he wants to get the Justina
21976s out before anything else happens k25
21979s dangerously low in the corner here could
21981s try and go for this elimination right
21982s now it is going to be a kill race to the
21985s very end doesn't see he's got Mystic it
21988s looks like he's not going to go for tt25
21991s he's going to try and go for Fong here
21992s he's ready to go for Fong trying to get
21994s him out we do see him get
21996s pretty low in HP right now all of the
21998s cannon shots are going to get sent
21999s through we see the meteor we see the
22001s wind whis we see the freeze coming
22003s through verse just desperately trying to
22005s get this elimination on the Fong wants
22007s this kill so bad we going to see him
22009s holding space up on the top with the fan
22012s use that gold long sword to try and even
22014s deal even more damage as Funk just
22016s getting repeatedly attacked these
22018s jumping lmbs everybody from all sides
22020s going to try and deal the damage onto
22021s Fong Fong on four eliminations vers
22023s needs to get him out before he's able to
22024s do more damage to him oh my goodness
22027s Raven do you think he's going to be able
22029s to do it I it's starting to look a
22031s little bit close I mean ideally you
22035s don't want pong to be in the position to
22037s block you off here pong is doing a
22038s really good job of icing off the
22039s pressure he does have the sustain of F1
22041s Justina he doesn't have ultimate up the
22044s rest of the lobby is not going to oblige
22045s for verse to get him Focus fired verse
22047s does his his very best I would say in
22049s that position to try to get Fong Focus
22052s fired but not everyone wants to go for
22054s it he at least has recognized that out
22056s of all the players in the lobby this
22058s Justina probably has the most kills
22060s right now after him he he witnessed
22063s Justina ying a kill right there so he's
22065s like wait a second this might this
22067s player might have the most amount of
22069s kills especially if it's one of the
22070s justas from the real Yang so we got to
22072s make sure to Fus fire this situation now
22076s 225 uh and I believe Fong both have gold
22081s armor in this position Fong Force to Al
22085s right now is ready down to one HP
22087s instantly shredded oron's looking for
22089s the last hit not able to get it Fong's
22090s able to get the white armor reset and a
22092s purple armor reset hit in the corner
22094s right now jumping lmb is going to be
22095s coming out from spider spider's going to
22096s show up to the party trying to get that
22098s early hit right now Canon shots are
22100s going be coming out Fong oh my goodness
22102s the F1 healing a ton of armor at least a
22105s half of his armor pool but now where can
22109s he go right now there's not much place
22110s is the kite he's going to find a little
22111s pocket here on the corner he's going to
22112s eat an R&B from Mike nice per going to
22115s be coming out and going to be vested by
22117s I believe spider comes flying in or who
22119s was that 225 comes flying in will bur be
22122s able to find a kill right now but it
22124s looks like The Kill is going to go to
22125s 225 now up to two kills I believe
22130s First Fong does fall right now so as
22133s long as first stays aoft plays this to
22135s end game arano going to get lifted off
22137s going to get eat that R&B from spider
22140s right
22141s now and
22143s now and now first stole the
22147s kill oh my goodness it's so close right
22150s now it's not going to matter though
22151s verse just needs to stay alive right now
22154s he's in a great position with only four
22155s people left but does he get Focus fire
22157s here Seb yeah it's it's looking like
22160s he's starting to get focused he has been
22162s caught out as the low player we're going
22164s to see him flip over to the Dual
22165s halberts he's got Dragon like it's going
22167s to be great for taking space but he's
22168s now boxed in he's going to be forced to
22171s Al pretty early here k25 not letting up
22173s with the bow shots there we go 's Mike
22176s is going to send it in forcing him to
22177s ult now and this is going to be a
22179s problem he gets hit with a Tessa charm I
22180s don't think he does it here this is the
22182s problem here oh he's got Advance heal
22184s this could this could work in his favor
22186s he's going to be able to Al back needs
22189s one more pot he needs a pot just come on
22190s get him one pot get him one pot no no oh
22194s verse my boy 4.5 points Fong right now
22199s is going to be uh overhead of him Mike
22202s now trying to bring it back around one
22204s elimination on the board for Mike is
22206s going to go for a bit of a heal here has
22208s one charge on his ultimate left we're
22210s going to see him bring it back around
22211s into the armor swap into the gray armor
22213s did not have very much charge on the
22214s armor Mike is going to get brought
22216s dangerously low here in the back end
22219s going to try and see if he can kite
22220s around this it's going to be difficult
22221s for him to try and make this win and
22224s uh is going to be able to get a single
22226s pot off though second pot is not going
22228s to connect we're seeing the temol come
22231s through and there we go spiders going be
22232s able to come away with this elimination
22234s oh air addition coming through storm and
22236s the Tesa Al is going to miss Mike going
22239s to be able to hold space like this but
22241s then K's tt25 going to come away with a
22243s beautiful hit and now it's going to be
22246s spider versus T225 in this final Circle
22250s the 1 V one of the Sentry right now as
22253s uh overh hold's going to come through
22255s spider getting dangerously low now no
22256s ultimate available for either of these
22258s players no F ability available for the
22260s players as well spider able to hit a
22262s beautiful sending him for a ride but
22265s there we go the uppercut followed up
22267s from the 1.0 and there we go first got
22271s robbed of three or four eliminations in
22274s that last sequence almost killed leono
22276s he almost killed bong he almost killed
22279s chuang and he did not get the MVP our
22284s MVP is going to be K's
22287s T225 for the third time tonight ladies
22291s and gentlemen gt25 has made himself the
22294s MVP putting himself on Match Point as
22297s well as I believe alung is .1 points
22301s away from qualifying for match point he
22304s had 20.9 going into this and now he's at
22307s and he got five points in that game so
22310s he's at 25.9 if Fong wants to win they
22313s have to go the distance but now Mike
22315s spider tt25 and verse all four of them
22317s are going to be on
22320s magin S will be going into the
22323s championship round but can one of four
22326s players get MVP it's really hard to MVP
22330s once you hit match point just cuz
22332s everyone's gunning for you no one is
22335s just letting anyone go out with freebies
22337s on top of the fact just just mping a
22339s Lobby is extremely hard now verse I feel
22343s like that round goes by so differently
22346s if he just gets to that realm of Yang a
22348s little bit earlier I know he has to be
22350s kicking himself the same way that Mike
22352s got ballista that he's going to go back
22354s and realize that if he just got into
22355s that realm of Yang things could go by
22358s very differently this the multi-way
22359s finding I'm not going to lie it's it's
22362s there's a lot of RNG that goes to it of
22364s whether or not you can capitalize on
22367s getting that kill while so many people
22369s are going for the same thing speaking of
22371s going for the same thing we have a
22372s question for you ladies and gentlemen
22374s everyone's going to be going for the
22375s same thing for your summer split random
22378s gifts how many kills did fpx zq verse
22381s get in game six was it a 3 B 4 C 5 or
22387s D2 o this one I do know the answer to
22392s yeah me too it's a they've been some
22394s pretty easy questions some some some
22396s nice easy layup questions perfect alley
22400s for you to hit that slam dunk and get
22402s yourself a summers split random gift
22404s added to your nraa locker worth it guys
22406s answer the question in chat hopefully
22408s you'll win good luck to the winners and
22410s just got to give a little shout out to
22411s Duncan congratulations for winning your
22413s first summer split box
22417s I don't think I've ever won one of this
22418s summer SP bu I think I've only gone for
22420s one though I've won I won last week or a
22423s couple weeks ago when I was casting with
22424s you for uh
22427s pre-final
22429s wow well we are going to be looking at
22433s the match points ladies and gentlemen
22435s burst at 32.9 225 at 32.5 spider at 28.1
22440s and Mike a 27.5 and I was saying before
22442s Seb we're most likely going to distance
22444s we're going to that game eight will
22446s someone MVP it's very hard to MVP I got
22450s to say that the way to win this whole
22452s thing is you got to play the points game
22454s you can't force it we saw verse really
22458s try to force it and credit to him that
22462s he went for it and he actually went for
22464s it pretty effectively like he he didn't
22468s really overextend in a lot of positions
22470s he played it as close to the heart as he
22473s could as far as being optimal I I think
22475s he just got really unlucky not getting
22477s into RMA Yang he just got there half a
22479s second too late and he doesn't get that
22481s ticket now I feel like in that position
22485s you might want to try to force the
22486s person off for that ticket now there's a
22488s chance that someone comes in a third
22490s party he opts to just go play it safe to
22493s play Spirit wall or play a stash but I
22496s think if he rels at his V especially
22498s this unique situation I I think the math
22501s makes sense that you try to force
22502s someone off that real of Yang and try to
22504s go in yourself just cuz you pretty much
22507s secure your MVP if you double Yang
22510s win yeah the the MVP would have been his
22513s a two more eliminations and it would
22516s have been absolutely magnificent but
22518s tt25 is going to take first place with
22520s the 4.8 kill points three ranking to put
22522s him at 7.8 of a total game score Fong is
22525s going to hit five on the fourth place in
22528s second place and he's still 0.1 points
22530s away from qualifying for match points so
22533s we won't actually get to see Fong for
22535s match point point in game seven verse
22538s this is going to mean some crazy stuff
22540s Fong is going to grief so hard this game
22543s because he just needs chaos he needs
22545s Nobody in the top four to win he's going
22548s to
22549s be his his very
22552s very frustrating self it's going to be
22555s amazing and it's going to be hilarious
22557s to watch we're going to see him throwing
22559s people with Liam V2 into thorny rollers
22561s and and signs hitting people with
22564s ballistas again it's going to be
22565s amazing but game seven energy has to
22569s come out here the bottom seven aono
22572s paced AIS star wuang and XY it's going
22574s to be very difficult for them to come
22575s out on top I'm not going to lie ladies
22577s and gentlemen it is looking pretty bleak
22579s for them with the high score being at
22580s 32.9 now an 18 score you're going to
22583s need to get at least 10 points a game
22586s and the top players are going to have to
22587s get zero points if that's going to
22590s happen oh going to lie if I'm I'm bong
22593s the 01 that's pretty tilting 25
22596s BR that that that's a tough feel to
22599s swallow you just you're right on the
22602s edge I you we got to go full Grief Mode
22604s if we're F we got to look got to we
22606s going to be dialed in of who Mike spider
22609s 225 inverse is going to be and we just
22610s got a full grief this game to get
22612s through cuz pretty much once you're
22616s past uh a certain amount of placement
22618s you're going to get just placement
22620s points and push you over the edge I
22622s don't know I I still got to go back to
22623s the tried and true got to play this
22626s close to the heart and just play points
22627s cuz it's probably going to go to
22628s distance now we're going to be looking
22630s at your highlights by brought you by
22633s Thunder bot or for gaming verse coming
22636s in with the drop down R&B with the great
22638s sword pce inside R Yang going to go for
22641s the raw Dragon Justina combo nice reset
22643s coming out of the freeze St getting put
22647s into the Montage long coming in with the
22651s clutch up on his V2 F1 Justina Pace
22656s versus Stark star is having a tough day
22659s all day today not able to get anything
22661s going not getting able to get that reset
22663s and tuang also putting Pace in the
22666s Bender with his long sword keeping up
22668s the pressure and we see bong coming in
22670s Ying The Kills left and right and
22673s everyone playing this super safe making
22676s sure that no one gets this out for free
22678s and you see first he knows he let this
22681s one slip through his fingertips but now
22685s Usual Suspects spider 225 Mike all
22689s getting up to match point the BR are
22691s going to be in this position they are
22692s known for clutching up this position you
22695s never want to have Mike in the driver's
22697s seat to clutch up a spot you see the
22699s smile on 225 he knows he's made across
22701s the MVP round they these guys are going
22703s to be able to Duke it out for these last
22705s two rounds they want to take this win I
22709s hope none of them take this win cuz
22710s we're going to win to game 87 I want to
22712s get to go the distance I was telling you
22716s as I predicted it's going to be tough we
22719s see three MVP round from Mr 225 my man's
22722s looking locked in he has momentum if
22724s there was a time the same thing as first
22727s this is a pretty good position to ship
22728s it and take a really big tournament away
22730s from Mike and
22731s spider yeah there's there's there's
22735s potential here I I want to see either
22737s tt25 reverse take it in this game
22740s because we've seen spider win we've seen
22742s Mike win it's old news it's nothing new
22744s it happens a lot so having tt25 the the
22748s king of second place actually get a win
22751s in a tournament like this would be so
22753s amazing to watch and verse somebody who
22756s we were not thinking about winning at
22757s the start of today we were thinking
22760s about anybody but verse
22763s honestly not necessarily but like we
22766s weren't verse was not brought up in the
22768s conversation when we were talking about
22770s who was going to win and now verse up on
22772s the top he didn't have the craziest
22774s amount of placement points but he played
22776s consistent 4.5 point average for the
22778s first three games ladies and gentlemen
22780s we are going to take a short break and
22782s we'll get right back to you be right
22784s back
22967s a whole season of nraa Blade Point pro
22970s league comes down to this final moment I
22973s think it's going to be this game Raven
22975s thinks it's going to be next game we've
22977s got we've got the deciding game coming
22981s right now if one of these four players
22983s on your screen right now makes the MVP
22986s of game number seven we will have a nvpl
22990s grand finals solo Champion crowned and
22993s Raven will owe me five gifted Subs if we
22996s go the distance to eight games I need to
22999s take out a bank loan and GI Raven some
23003s subs sorry for you Seb it's going to be
23006s unlucky seven for you we're not going to
23007s game seven this is Championship round
23009s and unfortunately there too many champs
23011s it's going to be loaded up and they're
23014s all going to sabotage each other there's
23016s no way they're any letting anyone go
23018s through right now this is when the the
23020s arono comes out where he just comes out
23022s with Tessa and P swords everyone I've
23024s seen it in the past it's been time and
23026s time again right there I mean I was I'm
23029s kind of rooting my my heart wants to
23031s root for 225 going in the worlds my
23034s man's been trying for a while now we got
23036s to stop throwing Point N though there
23038s were a couple situations where Mike
23039s walked through him again just because of
23042s how many Focus attacks he's going
23043s through I I was really impressed by how
23046s ferocious verse was if anything I would
23049s say if I was a player in the game I
23051s would think that I was might going
23053s through the lobby just playing how the
23055s level of aggression coming after for him
23057s he really did go for it and he just came
23060s barely short I would say he he
23063s made probably some of the best decisions
23065s he could probably made in that spot it's
23067s just he got unlucky not getting to that
23068s first Rumble Yang I feel like he played
23070s it too conservative at that point we we
23072s got to risk it going into Yang in that
23074s POS position and just put our faith in
23076s our dueling ability verse has been doing
23078s well all day today now it is match point
23081s he does have a little bit of buffer now
23083s moving forward I was saying though it's
23086s probably going to go to points again uh
23088s in this this type of position it's
23090s really hard to snowball around we're
23092s seeing a pretty big mix of who gets the
23095s MVP the round but surprisingly 225 has
23097s had three rounds today for MVP so if he
23101s gets four to ship it for this tournament
23103s that's going to be a pretty good
23104s narrative for for him and he has to be
23106s proud of that going into Worlds now can
23108s he do it he's come up short in the past
23111s he's definitely still one of the best
23112s fighters in the game but for some reason
23114s we just always get second place
23119s T225 I'm going to need you to do me a
23121s favor real quick lock
23123s in you're going to eliminate everybody
23126s see it's
23128s because burst didn't win because he
23131s didn't have the Bindy frames on D2 I've
23134s got the Bindy
23136s frames and he's going to pull this
23140s off we it's all about what the frames
23145s are the glasses pick we going to see
23147s taking a look at these hero picks now
23149s and getting back to a more serious track
23152s most of these players haven't burned
23153s their double pick I'm pretty sure verse
23155s has with that game on hottie so he has
23158s to play a unique hero and this could be
23160s detrimental to him because he is going
23162s to be last round selection given that he
23164s was first round last game going to be
23168s very difficult for uh first to be able
23171s to come away with this but tg2 5's got a
23173s really good shot and Mike and spider
23174s both have very fair shots at this given
23178s that uh drg Fong has uh is 0.1 points
23183s away he is definitely very very
23188s angry um and he's going to try and grief
23191s every single player in this entire Lobby
23193s he does not care
23195s he's going to be going full aggro trying
23197s to grief making sure nobody is going to
23199s win it before game
23202s eight I I don't know if he's going to be
23205s he was already playing a very grief play
23207s style uh playing that third party game
23210s and we're seeing verse look at his
23211s character picks this is Dr a strategy I
23214s I've seen and even Frost is telling me
23217s that most of the players right now you
23220s play one character you never want to go
23222s with a double pick the one exception
23224s that I've seen double picks go through
23225s his mic he risks it all to try to get
23227s ahead somewhere in the middle when he
23229s feels like he has an edge with the map
23230s Pool and the character
23232s picks but uh the most consistent play is
23235s saving that double pick for these last
23238s two rounds to make sure that you're
23240s ready to go just in case because you
23242s never know which characters get banned
23243s in the positions a lot of the times
23246s depending on how the rotation goes on
23248s you might not get your ideal pick in
23250s these spots so you got to have uh a
23252s backup plan maybe even a plan see as
23255s well now I'm liking spider's body
23258s language right now he's definitely
23259s looking locked in uh
23262s 225 looks a little
23264s bit he's considering some stuff digging
23268s deep May hopefully he's not thinking
23271s about how many times he got he got
23273s second place right now in this spot we
23274s got to lock in make sure we ship
23277s this this is this taste yeah
23283s taste a little bit
23285s he's looking very relaxed he he got
23286s nothing to lose and this is how volatile
23289s Championship round and last round is
23291s everyone who's in the bottom half of
23292s Lobby they know it's on Match Point so
23295s they might as well swing for the moon
23297s feel like it's going to get really ooly
23299s out there it's going to be oooga on all
23301s ends how do you navigate the situations
23304s uh I definitely saw contemplation coming
23306s out of a Mike
23308s now he everyone's accusing him of having
23311s some type of secret Strat if he has that
23313s reverse Uno strad now is the time to
23316s come out with we've seen in time and
23318s time again that Mike shows up big and
23320s clutches these positions he's come out
23322s to MVP from behind multiple times
23325s throughout this year so will he do it
23327s again will we just get the standard mic
23329s that we all love to watch where he just
23331s brings it back right at the end or will
23334s we get crowned a new Champion verse 225
23338s they have that spot or will we see
23340s spider finally come to form so now it's
23344s going to be in ention of who's the goat
23345s again going into Worlds will spider be
23347s able to ship
23349s it and that is what we're going to have
23352s to see as the hero picks go through
23354s hottie being banned out three Liams this
23356s is going to be devastating for the match
23359s point players having to fight against
23361s two hotties three Liams Fong is going to
23364s be rocking the Matari the Assassin Hero
23367s chuang on the Justina this is dangerous
23371s verse now our first match point player
23374s to pick Justina and tamy are going to
23376s come out it looks like justina's being
23378s banned out so spider not getting that
23380s Justina pick that we saw as coach
23381s holding up the Justina card now he's
23383s going to have to pick something else as
23386s we're going to see Mike going for the
23389s aast spider yet to pick it's thrown a
23392s shambles in his plans they're taking a
23394s look and the aost pick is going to be
23396s locked in as well oh risky play going
23399s here um but the two Match Point boys the
23402s two Titans both on aost this could be
23406s dangerous the problem with AOS is that
23408s he doesn't fight multi way well the plus
23412s side of it Yang really sets you up to
23415s win and AOS is so good inside Yang and
23418s both spider and Mike are literally the
23420s goats of of AOS now will they be able to
23424s get this
23426s through for this R of Yang that has to
23429s be the question and will they grief each
23431s other too cuz they're both on Match
23433s Point that's going to be another really
23436s really big
23437s question is it going be is going to be
23439s really spicy I I don't know like this
23442s this is a bad spot for I would say Mike
23445s and spider AOS is not this current meta
23450s ship
23451s it definitely high points but the MVP
23455s can they do
23456s it might be a 225 angle this what what
23459s what character is 225
23461s on on Tami
23464s I don't remember if 225 ever really
23466s shipped it on on T but versus on his
23469s Justina again verse gets another good
23471s shot this might be his time this is
23474s again he's in a really really good
23475s position 4.1 average points on his
23478s Justina spider and Mike man Mike's
23483s average is five Mike's average is insane
23486s he he's known as the the AOS goat he's
23489s King Tiger in China so will Mike take
23493s it well I can never bet against Mike I I
23495s feel like I got to go with Mike Mike's
23497s goingon to ship it
23498s arano has brought out the V2 on Liam
23503s again so what's going to happen is we're
23506s going to get to End Circle it's going to
23507s be five people left Mike spider uh T25
23511s arano and verse and orano is going to V2
23514s ball everybody out into the circle
23517s and it's going to be absolute chaos oh
23520s my goodness look at how condensed the
23521s spawn side is everybody in the western
23524s side gold Zone close to plumed Castle
23527s and then by
23529s matab on this bottom side here
23532s Southwestern side of the map see a
23535s couple players spawning actually in
23537s matab as it is a gold Zone and the
23539s thorny roller area around it as we have
23542s a couple players closer to the Northern
23544s Area it's going to be T225 Fong Mike and
23549s AIS along with a couple of other players
23552s reverse and figher they're all spawning
23554s in the same location that's not
23557s good they're going to fight each other
23559s at the start they're all going to kill
23561s each other and
23563s then ladies and gentlemen this moment is
23566s building up to this this is the game
23568s where we decide who will be the champion
23571s I'm your host and Caster Seb I'm joined
23573s alongside the master of analytics Raven
23576s plz and we are on game number
23580s seven genan going to be putting his
23582s hands onto Mike but Mike going to make
23583s his way into the cave looking for that
23585s armor has a weapon for for shenyuan is
23587s going to be faded out doesn't want to
23589s take this hybrid spot but Fong's going
23590s to be diving in on the
23592s Matari we got Fong on
23595s his comfort pick The Grieving
23599s Matari tell you if verse out of all the
23603s character picks here probably Mike and
23605s verse have a good position I just don't
23609s know if AOS is able to close it out on a
23612s hollow wrath Mike has to play out of M
23614s verse has to play it out his mine the
23615s ship it but everyone is going to play
23618s counterplay to them in this spot we're
23620s going to get spider versus shenan with
23622s verse lurking on the outside spider with
23624s the overh hold looks for the double
23626s charge release not going to throw it out
23628s going to get a nice juggle onto shenan
23630s nice job get a one two but ver is going
23632s to be coming in with the R&B and now
23634s spider going to pop ultimate immediately
23636s going to get that momentum going right
23638s now but verse able to get the scale Rush
23640s going spider doesn't get the lock down
23642s that he wants and a little bit of
23644s movement area a little bit of grapple
23645s Arrow now able just lock him down and
23646s ver is going to make it out with a
23647s bandit he's up to one already said oh my
23651s goodness this is intense why did they
23653s have to spawn next to each other they
23655s could have spawned next to everybody
23657s else destroyed the whole Lobby and then
23659s fought each other at the end but
23661s regardless everybody does have another
23663s life oh my goodness huge Parry forever
23665s into a jumping lmb huge combo coming up
23668s Mike does end up interrupting the combo
23670s a little bit there you're going to see
23671s the overh come through no blue was row
23674s so no Parry punish available but verse
23677s almost on this kill onto spider and he
23679s gets the second elimination Mike now
23683s focusing his energy we're going to see
23685s oh my goodness Pace going to come
23687s through on a crazy third party here now
23689s verse on the low spot is going to try
23692s and see if he can get himself an armor
23693s swap blue armor coming through for verse
23696s now this is a really good spot to be in
23698s for first he's got
23700s himself some good armor he's got a bit
23703s of a res
23705s going we do see the purple weapon is
23707s going to end up going towards the way of
23710s Mike that's a purple spear in hand Mike
23712s going to be continuing to give Chase
23714s verse in the back end Pace going to try
23716s and make something
23718s happen F ability hit and it looks
23723s like pace is going to steal the Kill
23725s from Mike oh my
23729s goodness oh and now we're seeing Pace
23731s coming through trying to come away with
23733s the elimination
23734s Mike and now going to theultimate out
23737s Mike ISP in a dream right now and he is
23741s going to go out pasted on two
23742s eliminations going absolutely crazy
23744s taking two of our match pointers out
23747s already bur coming out hot off spawn
23751s bong with the Parry onto Pace now back
23753s to back to back to back kills non-stop
23755s action with this off spawn hot dropping
23758s to the left side high yield C cave areas
23762s bong going to be walking through Pace
23764s just putting him in the buend putting
23766s him against The Buttery rocks lathering
23768s him up and soaking up this kill B up the
23771s two kills as well vers has his work cut
23773s out for him though that's what I was
23775s saying long already pass that threshold
23778s but it's going to be hard to MVP pace is
23781s on
23783s three I I don't know can Pace gate keep
23787s I feel like it's going to be up to Fong
23789s to gay keep this situation play this
23790s safe will bur be able to recover his
23793s game feel like there's a little bit
23797s actually he didn't really overextend it
23798s was it was a good play on his part he
23800s does kind of just get griefed by the
23802s third party Liam but Chang is going to
23804s fall to shenu on spider showing up to
23806s the party on the aast looks for the scar
23808s not able to get it half going to be
23810s going through fade out looking for the
23812s Trap goes for the range attack nice job
23816s by Shen want to close the distance with
23817s the grapple Canon not the best for anti-
23820s ranging t f who's going to be invested
23822s looks for the F to to cover his heal
23825s threaten spider but spider's not
23827s intimidated at all going to be grappling
23829s in doesn't opt to fight in the zone
23831s wants to slow it down play for that
23834s first r with Yang it looks like nice
23836s discipline coming up for SP you see the
23838s thought process you see the the
23840s reentering to make sure he doesn't over
23842s send in that spot he's like wait a
23843s second I'm AOS we got to get in that RL
23845s Yang but
23846s shenyuan on the Tami happy to sit on the
23850s outside and grief if he can not able to
23853s find the the attack that he wants but R
23856s Yang is going to be coming out and
23857s remember last time Seb it was key to
23860s getting that first ticket did verse
23861s reset can he get into Rumble Yang looks
23864s like he may play for it I don't I'm not
23867s sure if he's set up for the
23869s Jades looks like he is going to be
23871s playing for it I got to say if you want
23873s to be the champion it's a double Yang
23875s strategy to secure it for sure he's
23879s going to need to go in if he wants to
23881s the problem is he is going to have uh
23884s Mike and spider both on
23887s AOS and I feel like AOS has a slight
23890s Edge on Dina in the One V one and you're
23893s talking about the two goats if verse is
23895s going to do it and solid solidify
23897s himself into some nraa history he will
23900s have to go through the throne holders
23903s spider and Mike can he they can he do it
23907s today and I'm really hoping he's going
23909s to be able to as we going to see now
23911s arano was able to take away the SP Ranos
23914s are doing a very good job at holding
23916s these R of Yang portals away from these
23918s players and uh gg25 going to be forced
23921s to try and rotate out find himself
23923s another Yang portal to get himself into
23927s this is going to be difficult for him
23929s here like we saw earlier spider getting
23931s his kill stolen verse is going to be
23932s able to hold on to this portal four
23934s itself though this is a very good spot
23937s to be in Mike does have a Yang pass as
23940s well Fong is going to try and contest
23942s this though Fong could try and get
23944s pretty ugly here if he wanted to spider
23947s gonna see if he's able to go to a
23949s different side and make something else
23952s happened looks like he is going for the
23955s cave Fong is going to be going for this
23957s cave as well tt25 all converging on the
23960s same location this could be a very messy
23962s outside of the Yang fight that we've
23963s seen happen a couple times Mike looks
23966s like he wants to just send it right away
23967s he's going to go in and it's
23969s verse oh my goodness verse and Mike
23972s going to be going at it here we need
23974s verse to Come Away with this elimination
23976s but Mike on the aost is going to be very
23979s difficult and then we have paste and XY
23982s on the other realm of Yang last realm is
23984s going to be completely open looks like
23987s nobody else opting to go for these Yang
23989s passes Mike on the bottom side here blue
23992s b uh blue spear in hands going to get
23995s hit by the one two three is going to
23997s connect here into that Focus attack
23998s we're going to see the overh come
23999s through ultimate already invested from
24001s Mike this actually is going in the face
24003s favor right now
24005s of of verse he's just got to kite this
24008s out perfectly does end up kiting the
24010s first one the one two is going to
24011s connect just the one we are going to see
24014s the F ability now invested from verse
24016s Mike going to try and make something
24017s happen ultimate coming out from verse
24019s Mike able to get some siphon back over
24022s and now dealing a lot of damage we are
24023s going to see him get caught F ability
24026s invested though Mike could bring this
24028s fight back around it's going to be a
24029s cannon shot coming through one two is
24031s going to connect now we're going to see
24032s the overh hold come through into the
24034s freeze doesn't get the grapple though
24036s into the uppercut we are going to see
24038s them go for the overh hold tries to go
24039s for the Parry F ability invested Mike
24041s trying to go for the overh here is going
24043s to hit an uppercut and that's it here we
24045s go vers is just going to get juggled all
24047s the way through this and there we go oh
24049s ug's Mike picking up his first
24051s elimination sending verse to the soul
24054s alter verse is going to have to get
24056s himself a soul Bloom if he wants to stay
24060s in the race for the victory here this is
24062s just increasingly difficult these top
24064s four players shouldn't be killing each
24066s other they should be killing the rest of
24067s the
24068s lobby told you dou up R Yang Wing is the
24072s only way you can secure that mvp nice
24074s job from bur he does a really good job
24077s of burning through Mike's cooldowns he
24079s just can't secure that last little bit
24082s Mike able to ice off the pressure of the
24084s Justina V1 just holding Blue over and
24086s over and it's spear is a pretty tough
24090s matchup for the weird Shenanigans as far
24092s as getting like half charge light
24094s attacks through the last seeing left
24097s click or or horizontal very very hard to
24100s take your turn back very very hard to
24102s trap especially with Dodges has a really
24104s really good coverage and it's very easy
24107s to space out because it has such a nice
24109s reach on that light attack and Mike just
24111s takes advantage of that situation uh
24114s verse does go for a greedy play and
24117s looks for after that freeze a light
24118s attack and when you have even though
24121s it's not a true combo break old FS are
24125s very very hard to Swagger especially
24127s with low ping you have to be pretty
24129s frame perfect to get that uppercut after
24132s a freeze but I respect it cuz if he
24134s would have gotten it he would have
24136s secured that kill bur is going to be
24138s back with that Yang depletion multiple
24141s Vermilion buff players are here in metab
24143s he's forced to pop his ultimate going to
24145s be using it to disengage he's going to
24146s be running into aano running away from
24148s Mike he's going to get juggled and Mike
24150s is going to come down with the RB and T
24154s down bur no championship for bur but
24157s Mike in the running still so is 225 but
24161s right now Pace with the four kill he is
24164s the gatekeeper for this tournament are
24166s we going to end it here on Lucky Seven
24169s for s or is it going to be an unlucky
24171s seven and we're going to game eight with
24173s the five
24174s gifted and uh if you do take a look
24176s spider has been fully eliminated as well
24179s so there's literally only chance is T25
24182s and Mike and they they have decided that
24184s they want to fight each other right now
24185s so uh this is not the greatest scenario
24188s Mike does have that Yang uh that
24190s Vermilion bird might for the next 50
24191s seconds so if he does get eliminated
24193s here he is in a decent standing but tt25
24196s getting pretty aggressive on the side
24198s they do have to get paced out this is
24201s crucial if Pace goes to Yang and
24203s wins it's going to be pretty much over
24206s for them here uh they need a Yang win
24210s they both need a Yang win and
24214s they need to get Pace to get on Yang
24215s depletion there arano and XY they need
24218s to find the eliminations for them as
24220s well as arano is going to start to try
24223s and fight against Mike Mike was able to
24225s get two beautiful uppercuts against the
24226s wall into a scale Rush we're going to
24228s see the armor swap coming up from Morano
24229s though F ability invested from Mike to
24232s try and create some space it looks like
24234s aano was able to tap Dodge away Mike
24237s just going to back out 3 seconds left on
24239s that Vermilion so he does not want to
24242s get into a fight get very low realize he
24244s doesn't have Vermilion and die
24246s permanently Wang is going to go down
24248s Fong picking up that elimination as uh
24251s he's on to his third kill and now we go
24254s the realm of Yang is about to spawn
24257s ladies and gentlemen spider inverse just
24258s sitting there tense hoping that Mike and
24262s T225 aren't going to take away the vi
24264s the chance at Victory for them and uh if
24268s it didn't cost me five gifted I'd be in
24269s the same boat hoping with
24272s them I'm K has his workup out of him can
24275s he secure this wi in the realm of Yang
24277s it's going to be tough spider gets an
24278s armor swap in this replay he is going to
24281s be getting juggled 225 and I believe
24284s Fong is on top of him the p through from
24287s Fong and the dual blades just too much
24289s pressure for spider right now and the
24290s drop down double charge coming out from
24292s 225 able to secure the kill onto spider
24295s tough break for him not able to use the
24296s common break because of that gold jade
24299s spider will Ball but out 225 is setting
24304s up for this realm of
24306s Yang and Fong is going to fall with the
24309s three kills now it's just Pace 225 and
24312s Mike Will pce ball orano and and Shen
24316s run up to two as well so 225 and Mike
24319s they they need to might need to win this
24321s next R of Yang if he hopes to MVP this
24323s round and he will be coming from the
24326s rear as the small lowest amount of
24328s points a match point player if 225
24331s really really wants this tournament has
24333s to show up big right here and beat his
24335s Nemesis beat the goat himself Mike we're
24338s going to have to see inside Rumble Yang
24341s Mike is going to be already waiting for
24344s all challenges it looks like 225 wants
24346s to go in the second R doesn't want to go
24348s first and this is what Mike is is known
24349s for being the first one into the real
24352s Yang especially in this these
24354s positions people seeing the aost in the
24357s lobby it can only be a handful of
24359s players not everyone does run AOS in
24361s this current meta and it looks like
24363s Mike's going to be fighting against
24364s wuang now wufang has had Mike's number
24367s for this year can Mike overcome it does
24371s he make the adjustments wuang has done a
24373s ton of homework onto this match up will
24376s wuang be Mike Kryptonite or will Mike do
24380s what we know Mike is known for winning
24382s in the most flut situations SC going to
24384s be coming out nice bar going to come out
24385s from Mike big punish going to be coming
24387s out against the wall Wang eating a bunch
24389s of Chip damage for the double jumping lb
24391s going to pop his gold F now at this
24392s point toing out so much damage nice Fade
24394s Away double hold is going to be coming
24396s out he's going to jump and pop the
24397s ultimate not going to go for a risky
24401s risky play we're just going to get the
24402s ultimate out but Mike is going to hold
24404s on to his old right now he's going to
24405s eat that first F3 we're not even going
24408s for the heal Mike's going to double hold
24409s Dodge out try to get some space he's
24410s going to take another hit are we going
24412s to all right now Mike we're taking a lot
24413s of damage right now nice job ey frame
24415s some damage he's going to go for the
24416s Tiger in midair he is taking some burn
24418s damage wufong threatening that light
24420s attack and Mike with the oh my God he's
24423s going to get a little bit of siphon Wang
24424s is going to pop the gold F he goes for
24426s the focus ATT now we get a tap Dodge
24427s into the light attack he goes for
24429s another hold Dodge he yes is the actual
24432s attack but Mike is able to clutch it up
24436s it doesn't matter the flurry of attacks
24439s he's going to get that last little bit
24440s of Chip damage and Mike Will clutch it
24443s is it Mike's big clutch up moment or
24446s will Pace G keep it we're going to the
24448s other Lobby right now star versus 225
24451s light attack been coming out 225 golden
24453s is going to be
24454s invested now he's going for the double
24456s charge threat he's going to send it but
24458s the F break from Liam is going to create
24461s some space he's threatening the scale
24463s where star going to come wi the drop
24464s down looking for the light attack trip
24465s damage goes for the uppercut not able to
24467s get it Clank going be coming out star
24470s with the half tried orange B he is going
24471s to get the Clank 225 will fall and now
24476s the Moment of Truth can Mike keep up
24478s this momentum s i I'm really hoping Mike
24481s will be able to keep the momentum up
24483s looking like our only hope right now and
24485s uh we saw tt25 almost able to come away
24489s victorious in that fight but he did lose
24492s to te star star was able to come away
24494s with a beautiful play on the Liam and
24496s eliminate him pretty quickly here T25
24500s needs to get an elimination uh very very
24502s fast and you know he's got the potential
24504s to do it here he's on the Tami he can
24506s lock down a player pretty quickly make
24508s sure they burn their ultimates and get
24510s them locked down he he's we seen him
24513s come back from situations like this
24515s before he is only on one elimination but
24517s the placement points in the multiplier
24519s could be huge for him to be able to come
24521s away with this as uh we are going to see
24523s him scaling up to the side of the
24524s building Mike hungry and ready for kills
24527s he sees somebody with blue armor he's
24528s going to get or gray armor he's going to
24530s get a huge Parry off tries to go for an
24531s uppercut follow up after the Parry
24533s punish is not going to be able to come
24535s away with anything there we going to see
24537s him go for the one jump lmbb cryo is
24540s going to be invested over onto the side
24542s of XY XY going to be making a huge play
24544s with his uh wind whisps coming through
24547s Mike going to be taking a lot of damage
24549s but now XY getting a huge charge attack
24551s off Mike is getting dangerously low here
24553s this could be a very bad situation for
24555s him it's the third party potential is
24557s huge K c225 going to go up to the
24559s ceiling to try and see if he can pick
24561s off asc's XY blue armor swap going to
24563s come in for XY we're going to see him
24565s try and go for the heals the poison uh
24567s from the repeating crossbow is going to
24570s come into play as well poison take
24572s damage onto asc's XY Mike back on full
24575s reset going to try and go for an
24576s uppercut to see if he can catch him on
24577s the chase is not going to be able to
24579s connect with it they're still looking
24581s he's chasing around weaving and ducking
24583s he finds them goes for the overh hold is
24586s go is not going to connect and it's a
24588s mad dash Chase K is tt25 looking for the
24590s elimination as well the scale Rush away
24592s is going to connect runs right into
24594s Mikey overh holds uppercuts going to
24596s come through and there we have it the
24597s will form hook into a blistering Edge
24600s Mike taking so much damage kg25 focusing
24603s all of his strength onto Mike now and
24604s this is not what we wanted ladies and
24606s gentlemen aano is going to come through
24608s ultimate invested Mike not in the best
24611s position right now as every single
24613s player in the lobby sees his weakness
24614s and decides to capitalize on
24616s it the white tiger Buffs keeping the
24619s tiger alive Mike get able to get some
24621s space and there's one place that Mike is
24624s able to survive it's definitely here in
24626s metap a lot of walls to play off of now
24628s he doesn't have a tried and true fan so
24629s kiing in the spot he can get caught out
24632s but to 225 2 minutes 45 seconds if he
24635s wants to keep his dreams alive of
24637s stealing his termin through he has to
24639s keep going or is he going to again I
24642s mean it's not that bad getting second
24644s places you still get a decent chunk but
24647s as a competitor at what point do you
24650s lose your mind getting that second place
24651s 225 in that solid second place right now
24654s Mike though points are not going to
24657s matter if he's able to MVP his round
24658s unfortunately though SS one's pace is
24662s still up to four kills we got seven
24663s people alive Pace just has to play this
24665s nice and safe wait for that commitment
24668s from the Yang depletion uh player looks
24671s like 225 is going to slow it down we've
24673s seen this trend today if you have Yang
24675s depletion you don't reveal that you're
24677s desperate for a kill you play it very
24679s very slow and you wait for that that
24682s last little bit that minute 45 you try
24684s to see if anyone else hard commits to
24686s that spot so you can come in late cuz if
24689s you are the person doing that heavy
24691s lifting it is a lot harder to to get
24693s that Win Wang is going to be the victim
24696s of that double charge release and now
24698s the follow up from Pace now Pace up to
24701s four kills if he's able to secure this
24702s kill five kills going to be hard to pass
24704s you're going to need an MVP around if
24705s you're hoping to pass five kills 225 is
24708s going to get his armor shredded from him
24709s minute 30 time is ticking if he wants to
24712s win this tournament he's going to have
24715s to make something magical happen he is
24717s that's the first step he is going to
24718s catch wank this bird trying to fly away
24720s put in the sand cage and now Rono
24723s putting on the pressure of 225 he has to
24724s survive the situation the light attacks
24726s be coming out jumping lmb from the fist
24728s now star jumping in as well can 225 put
24730s on the nikis and get out of the
24732s situation Dash is coming through oron's
24734s going to put in the one charge star
24736s coming in with a p sword 225 dodon we
24739s been using the scale Rush up he is going
24740s to get Pokéball from Moran he is going
24742s to make him his Pokemon for this kill a
24747s Rano with the kill up the three kills
24750s right now can Mike clutch up two players
24753s at three kills right now Pac at four and
24755s spirit world coming out can Mike claim
24758s this and secure this Victory Seb I'm
24761s really hoping he does Raven it was it
24764s was looking like verse and then it was
24766s looking like tt25 and now it's looking
24768s like Mike is our only hope here as uh
24772s he's trying to go for this Spirit Well
24773s claim and it looks like star is going to
24775s hit the blistering edge off onto a Mike
24777s not able to get the Parry on that te
24779s star going to be trying to go for this
24781s there's three Liams still alive in this
24783s it's going to be very difficult for
24784s anybody other than a Liam to be able to
24786s come Victorious aono with three Pace
24789s with four star with two XY with two Mike
24792s with three he's still in a decent
24794s standing right now but he needs to get H
24796s an elimination on one of the Liams in
24799s the game there's three of them going to
24801s be very difficult star being the one to
24803s get the buff not the biggest problem in
24805s the world he's only on two eliminations
24807s it's not going to be the most
24809s detrimental problem as we are going to
24810s see him switching those dual blades over
24813s to
24814s halberts grabbing his repair kits
24816s jumping back into the zone to naade to
24819s heal back the rest of his HP bar going
24821s to scale back up and look at that
24823s grapple distance ladies and gentlemen
24825s that is the glyphboard in action as we
24827s see te star showing off how far he's
24829s going to be able to Grapple and catch
24831s his opponents no matter what they do and
24833s they do see a spot out Mike and this is
24836s this is going to be unfortunately both
24838s of these
24839s players opting to go for the aost we do
24842s see the fan come out um little bit of a
24844s movement era here we going to see Star
24846s is going to get hit with the one coming
24848s through Mike it just needs to kite this
24850s out so B they I'm pretty sure they know
24852s that it is him or there there's
24855s something that they know about it's
24857s going to be a Parry coming through and
24859s Mike is done ladies and gentlemen we're
24861s going to game eight
24865s goodness wait Mike Mike get a little bit
24868s of
24869s siphon poke Ball's going to comeing out
24871s for Morano he misses the first one to
24872s catch the white tiger throws the other
24875s one comes in flying but he does get the
24878s Pokéball orano makes a Mike hey with the
24883s B2 star coming in with the third party
24886s trying to secure and now the Liams up to
24888s four kills and we're going a game 87 I
24891s called it we're Going the Distance your
24894s five gifted will be in your mailbox
24896s shortly mang or shuine battling out can
24901s the lone Tami secure it doesn't look
24903s like the Liam family the mob of Liams is
24906s going to let this happen genuine having
24909s a tough day at 10.1 aono though climbing
24913s up the leaderboards he can ladder up
24915s remember even though we're talking about
24917s first every single place does matter you
24920s ladder up a couple thousand just by
24922s getting one or two kills it's still neck
24925s to neck when you look at the scores
24927s right now Pace at 18 orano at 18 big
24930s 10-point jump to spider at 28 but Fong
24934s and Mike at 25 and 20 actually no they
24938s are above 28 forgetting the additional
24940s points 10 points to to climb up
24943s definitely a good start we're going to
24944s have one more round if they hope to
24946s climb up to fifth and sixth shenu on the
24950s time he get some blue armor reset but in
24951s the middle of double Liam going to go
24953s for the Parry not able to come out in
24954s time a little bit of delay W is going to
24958s keep him safe but is it safe versus
24960s three players it looks at the Liams are
24961s turning onto each other
24963s No More Mr Nice Guy pace is going to get
24965s put into the blender shenan tries to go
24967s for the yo but not able to last hit
24970s going to go onto Pace Pace up to five
24973s kills right now oron up to four star up
24976s to two and we got a triple Liam end game
24980s s this is just not exactly what you
24982s wanted to see on a day like this ladies
24984s and gentlemen as we are going to be
24985s seeing past Rono and te star the three
24989s Liam of the lobby that is going to be
24991s dangerous and in fact was very dangerous
24993s these players are all going to attempt
24995s to make something happen as they they
24997s used all three of their ultimates to try
24999s and get rid of Mike and it was
25001s successful arano hitting him into the
25003s ball ultimate slamming him into the wall
25006s coming away with a beautiful elimination
25008s and as heartbreaking as it was it was a
25010s very clean kill um past arano and star 2
25015s V2s or one V2 2
25019s v1s I'm hoping orano takes it honestly
25022s Oran with the V2 is my favorite to win
25025s it at this point everybody's stacked on
25027s weapons and armor there's there's no
25031s way that we don't
25034s see if if aano is able to get both of
25038s them into a ball and just send them
25042s flying this this could be some some
25045s really crazy stuff going on is uh Rono
25047s going to be holding up the top star and
25049s Pace do have the better ultimate for
25051s being able to control those final
25052s circles but who knows there's there's a
25055s lot that could happen in the course of
25057s this game we are going to be hoping that
25061s uh some crazy stuff is going to happen
25063s past just going to be holding the Zone
25065s with everybody's got their gold Jades
25066s that they're holding Zone with past has
25068s the OCTA slash we see aano with the
25072s universe slash we see star with the gold
25076s uh golden P sword on the side just
25078s holding Blue everybody just hanging out
25081s a minute and 42 seconds slap to decide
25083s who is going to be the MVP of game
25086s number seven will it be arano will it be
25088s star or will it be Pace we'll know in a
25091s minute and a
25092s half a little bit of soloud going out
25094s from these guys but looking at the
25096s leaderboards one thing shocking here is
25099s 225 is leading by points by1 verse at
25103s 35.4 but 225 at 35.5 he's holding the
25107s lead round eight I was saying going for
25111s MVP is
25113s a little bit grief I think playing for
25115s points playing
25117s safely and securing just just keeping T
25120s I would say if you keep tabs on who's
25121s getting a ton of kills just guarantee
25123s they don't get that multiplier and I
25125s feel like you could keep Pace with the
25127s MVP round uh Pace we didn't really see
25130s him go
25132s too frag crazy really reaching for them
25136s that a lot of the kills just came to him
25138s and he was able to pick this off but
25139s that's kind of how Liam ends up playing
25142s he's very very safe very very good at
25144s playing those third party situations the
25146s gold F puts him in a really really good
25148s spot you see that folks te going to be
25149s coming out the double charge with the
25151s gold duel howby Jade's going to be
25153s coming out last little bit of Zone left
25157s AR's going to be taken to the sky early
25158s looks for that grapple cancel over and
25159s over gold going to be used Pace one
25162s charge fake one charge fake again into
25164s tap Dodge F on the ground F going to be
25167s coming out from pace flash coming in
25169s gets a little bit of siphon at the top
25170s health but he didn't get forced down
25172s nice stagger coming out from Star makes
25174s his way back in he does have the Health
25175s Advantage
25176s but arano with the Pokeball going to be
25179s coming in throws him flying arano can he
25182s get another hit he does get the last hit
25184s and wait a second arano the Pokemon
25187s Master able to secure this kill and you
25189s see the satisfaction the little bit of
25192s hand R my man is going to clutch it up
25195s good job arano definitely not what I
25198s expected SE for the B2 to come and big
25201s there and it looks like aono is going to
25204s be on Match Point now with the amount of
25206s eliminations that he got it's going to
25208s be five kills with a first place finish
25210s he was on 24.1 he's now getting himself
25214s onto that match point which is
25216s absolutely crazy the big clutch up
25218s coming from him there te star was the
25220s one to get the elimination onto pace and
25222s Nano got the kill on to Star so they
25226s they they played their hearts out the
25228s Liams had a fun little fight arano sent
25232s uh
25233s ronto sent star flying and it was
25235s hilarious I thought that's all I wanted
25237s to see after the Heartbreak of what
25239s happened in the
25241s game you see St star just can't believe
25244s it he's like did I just lose to B2 bro
25248s what happened how
25251s how how someone has to go and study the
25255s V2 of R my man clutching it up to
25259s satisfaction Mike [ __ ] Mike 225 verse
25263s just like really none of us one we're
25266s going to game eight what is this arano
25269s makes it through orano makes it the
25271s match point I I was say said it always
25274s comes down to five or six and for some
25276s reason we go to points it doesn't even
25279s matter that five or six of us are on
25282s that match point it just comes down to
25285s points in the end this is this is where
25287s last time arano just came in with like a
25290s Tessa pole sword and end up just cling
25292s up with the points spider comes in big
25295s here with points as well it's going to
25296s be a dice roll of who's going to take
25298s this it's whoever can come out off spawn
25301s and get into real of Yang and it's not
25303s even just how good you are in real of
25305s Yang it's that you're timing getting
25306s there are you smart enough to navigate
25309s the map to find the least contested R
25311s Yang so you get that ticket and then are
25313s you good enough to ship it in there are
25315s you going to get that good matchup now
25317s depending on how the phasings go your
25319s matchups there I I was saying that I is
25322s really hard to win in this current meta
25325s end game you don't have as many tools
25328s and unfortunately for him spider does go
25330s down so they're not able to really help
25333s each other out in that end game you just
25336s I know when Mike looked at the three
25337s elams he's just like oh it's cooked like
25339s how am I going to get through this how
25340s am I going to survive this situation we
25342s got the Pokemon Master Rano we got the
25344s Double Bs coming out and looking at the
25347s match points 225 35.5 verse 35.4 Mike 31
25352s points pong 29.4 spider 28.4 and now
25355s oron out of nowhere I'll tell you oron
25358s oron is the goat of the eighth round he
25359s just comes out of nowhere and he just
25361s somehow wins on
25363s points yeah I mean an A ronto MVP right
25367s here would be absolutely
25369s insane most random thing to happen all
25373s day like I thought verse would be the
25375s most random thing to happen if we see
25378s arono take MVP on game number eight
25387s wow I
25389s mean could happen it could happen
25393s there's no way I I I was saying ex that
25396s it's really hard to predict right now in
25399s the solos meta it's just it's so
25402s volatile everyone plays out of their
25404s mind right now and anyone can ship it I
25407s I could see all six players not get the
25410s MVP and we go to points again so I'm
25413s telling you that I think the winning
25414s strategy so far is just play the slow
25417s and steady wins the race let everyone
25420s else go a little bit too crazy and just
25423s try to play that very very solid game it
25426s doesn't mean don't go don't go in a r
25428s Yang but you don't need to force those
25430s situations where in a multi-way fight
25432s you let yourself get flanked and put in
25434s a bad spot you see Rano come out big
25437s secure that win five kills Pace five
25439s kills that whole time start with three
25441s Mike get is picked off F gets picked off
25444s everyone gets picked off in the MVP
25445s round we just see them all fall all fall
25449s and we're going in that game
25451s eight a spider with a donut is just so
25454s unfortunate to see tt25 with only three
25456s points is very unfortunate Mike with
25458s only four super unfortunate and uh verse
25462s with a 2.5 it's just just tough AIS with
25466s a donut as well as Chu Jang Chu Jang had
25468s a very disappointing performance today
25470s I'm sad to say it would uh
25472s I definitely thought Chu Jang was going
25473s to be in the top there uh over like
25477s verse and you know they're sort of
25479s switching places in the the scoreboard
25481s that I had planned in my head before
25484s this so uh yeah it's I guess it's just
25487s not as day you know sometimes that
25489s happens but to have it happen on the
25490s most important Tournament of uh the
25493s entire mvpl is definitely rough XY going
25496s to be down on the bottom at 13.6 Wang
25498s with 15.8 AIS with 17.9 star with 18.7
25502s Jang with 21.5 and Pace with 24.6 so
25506s these players are not going to be
25508s eligible to win on Match points so if
25510s they MVP it goes to the most amount of
25512s points and unless they get an ungodly
25514s amount of
25515s points they're not going to be reigning
25517s Victorious so K's tt25 and fun plus
25521s Phoenix's verse are favorite to win on
25522s points as they are on 35.5 and 35.4 in
25525s first and second position Mike in third
25528s at
25529s 31.5 buong in fourth at 29.4 spider 28.1
25534s in fifth and sixth is Sneak Attack play
25538s Mr Pokeball himself aono coming through
25541s with the
25542s 27.6 absolute Insanity let's take a look
25545s at some of the highlights and
25546s heartbreaks from Thunder
25548s robot going back to the Off spa all of
25551s the
25551s MVP all Landing relatively near each
25554s other and we see the griefer himself
25556s Wang on his Matari coming up big slowing
25558s down everyone now going to the rumble
25560s gang Mike dominating with his a
25562s no surprises here able to get that scoop
25564s up onto verse into the one two wakes up
25567s with the crouching lmb gets another one
25569s two first just wanting to slap himself
25574s should have been slapping in game maybe
25576s get that opener onto Mike but
25578s unfortunately not able to find that kill
25582s 225 with those gold dual Hales coming
25585s out with that gold J is over and over
25586s finding the kills and we see mikee with
25588s the clutch up versus wuang wuang not
25591s able to beat the goat this time he's had
25594s his number this whole year not this time
25596s and then Wang gets put into the Deep
25599s Fire from 225 the classic double double
25602s hold no mixup mixup and a Rano ending
25606s this game with the rare V2 overcoming
25610s the siphon the heels from the V1 nice
25615s job by arano still can't believe V2
25617s ended up coming a big here yeah I love
25620s that he played V2 twice as well that was
25622s his double pick we saw the VG come out
25624s in one of the games earlier picked up a
25626s kill F blades dealing 13,000 of his 17K
25629s damage is pretty insane will form hook
25633s Universe slash Cavalry Bloom Advanced
25635s steal
25636s sap arono had the setup to win right
25639s here like this is this is a very good
25641s setup um congrats to him for winning
25644s it's it's it's well deserved it was it
25646s was hard work for and it was welld
25649s deserved it's crushing but it was welld
25651s deserved
25655s I'm there's a reason Seb why one of the
25660s expert analysis so just you know how
25663s things go here in solos right now M has
25666s been stopped everyone has been stop it
25668s was look at you see that that mvp you
25671s see them so close to doing it but
25676s everyone everyone's so dialed in as far
25679s as like having everyone's landing
25680s position scouted that it's very very
25683s hard to MVP everyone also is very
25687s capable too so realm of Yang isn't as
25689s free as it used to be anymore everyone
25691s used to be afraid of Mike and spider now
25693s everyone has studied them so much
25695s they've taken from them and they've
25696s evolved that gameplay to the point where
25698s now Mike and spider I would say even
25700s sample from other players but speaking
25702s of sampling we got to sample for one of
25705s your round eight questions for your
25708s summer split random drops how many
25711s players had scored more than the match
25714s point threshold was it a 4 B 5 C6 or D
25720s seven this one this one's a little bit
25723s hard got you have to have been paying
25725s attention I would say this is aium not
25728s super hard not super easy just somewhere
25730s in the middle does this count for before
25732s the game or after
25735s the technicalities have technicalities
25738s okay
25740s anyways yeah I yeah I'm realizing now I
25743s probably shouldn't have made a bet the
25744s the person who studies the game the most
25747s in na is you know the trends and I
25750s should have realized that made a rash
25752s decision but anyways I'm happy to
25755s support so uh you know congratulations
25758s on your win you being right um take my
25762s loss humbly and uh we're going to be
25764s getting ready to go into game eight in
25765s just a second here because this is going
25768s to be most insane finish in mvpl finals
25774s history I I am so excited to see how
25777s this game is going to turn out it's
25779s eight games in we've had technical
25782s difficulties we've had insane almost
25785s victories we've had some very wild stuff
25788s going on and now we've got six players
25790s on Match Point going to be fighting it
25792s out on the final game of the day if none
25795s of them MVP it's most likely going to go
25798s to someone like T225 or verse who are
25802s the highest scoring players right now
25804s but who knows it could always go a
25806s different way and that's why we play
25807s these games ladies and
25809s gentlemen this is so cooked this is like
25811s this is so
25812s cooked I mean you love to see these rule
25818s sets payoff for the drama that we're
25820s experienc right now round eight anyone
25824s can win this in this situation before it
25827s was pretty much always going to be Mike
25828s or spider but now we're seeing
25832s not only do you have hope if you're a
25834s sixth as a Rano it's a good chance that
25837s you can sneak it through it's going to
25839s be a lot harder to get Focus fired so
25841s you can play a very very sneaky game now
25843s what we haven't really seen established
25846s so far is what the predominant winning
25849s strategy is in this position it's always
25851s come down to just the clutch Factor just
25854s a game of inches the smallest thing may
25858s make you win or lose now bong has
25861s definitely showed throughout the day
25863s that you don't necessarily need to only
25865s win Yang in order to be successful he
25867s snuck his way back in aano similar he
25871s hasn't been able to get into R Yang on
25873s all of his characters but I would still
25876s say going into this round a a lot of the
25880s what what sets apart these players is
25883s choosing the right landing position
25884s choosing the right matchups and playing
25886s to your character strengths in this spot
25889s you get you have to play seven
25892s characters so your double pick comes out
25894s right now now because of the phasing the
25898s character that you might want to pick on
25900s this map might get banned out so you got
25902s to have a plan B a plan C in this
25904s position you see spider he's looking
25906s pretty ready for this moment I don't see
25908s any nervousness in him he's looking
25910s pretty High Spirits this is a rare
25911s instance that we see uh Spider in such
25914s high Spirits going into a last game
25916s situation he doesn't look like he has
25918s any doubt in his eyes
25920s so Props spider has definitely come a
25922s long way this year is this going to be
25924s his moment to Dethrone Mike and really
25927s set up the stage for a World's run or
25932s are we going to see 225 with the Cella
25934s story is he going to be able to come
25936s through look at that notebook you see
25939s this is one of the things as well said
25941s that even Foster was telling me everyone
25943s has a notebook and everyone's taking
25944s notes as they're playing the games of
25946s what adjustments people are making a lot
25949s of times the timings of when people are
25952s coming at a Yang uh the timings of when
25955s people are respawning everyone is taking
25957s note of these things and we're seeing
25959s the two
25960s goats and I'm not going to lie a rare
25964s instance where I feel like spider is
25967s looking a little bit more confident than
25970s Mike I mean facial expressions show it
25973s all right now spider is looking Kickback
25977s relax and ready to go which we don't
25979s normally see he's always locked in
25982s looking like he wants to to to hurt
25984s somebody and he's looking like he's
25987s ready to you know take a bite out of the
25989s Big Apple whereas now he's kick back
25992s relaxed and ready to go so uh it's
25995s definitely an interesting uh body
25997s language that he's got showing up here
25999s so hopefully uh you know it'll translate
26001s well for him he could be a little too
26002s relaxed leaning a little bit too far
26004s back in the chair could cause him to
26006s lose this game as H you know he did go
26009s out with a donut in game number seven
26011s there's a very big possibility of that
26013s verse used his double pick already so
26016s he's got to pick a completely unique
26018s hero um probably going to go for the AOS
26021s pick most likely it's looking like or
26024s kylin I'd love to see an off meta hero
26027s but I don't think we're going to see
26028s that because it's the finals it's going
26030s to be very very difficult for us to see
26034s and no double pick used for Mike he's
26037s got the chance to use whoever he wants
26039s if he goes Zing I going to freak out out
26042s that would be hilarious I don't think
26044s he's going to let his whole career and
26046s his whole day ride on the fact that he
26050s needs to win a game with Zing
26053s but never know no double pick used for
26056s Fong either he's got free reign of
26058s choice other than the heroes that are
26060s going to get banned out and I believe
26062s that everybody is going to be in the
26063s last rounds of selection the last four
26065s rounds of selection will be given to
26069s the players who are on Match Point first
26072s four rounds are going to be players who
26074s are not on Match points six aren't go
26078s first the six who are go last and uh
26081s it's sure to be an interesting one this
26083s is everybody's got the frames on
26085s everybody's ready to go game eight of
26088s the grand finals this is to decide who
26091s gets the grand prize that big bag all of
26094s the cash who gets the uh the glory the
26098s trophy the bragging rights and uh if
26101s Mike is going to be able to keep calling
26103s spider uh
26107s washed I don't know if Mike ever called
26109s spider wash
26111s I I think wash is not the right term for
26114s it but uh wash would be that that'd be
26116s insane for them to call each other I
26118s mean they're they're actually really
26119s really good friends they're very
26121s friendly robbery between each other but
26124s was I feel like
26126s spider there was a time where spider was
26130s slowing down a little bit it took him a
26132s little bit to reinvent and find himself
26134s throughout the year but I'd say overall
26136s spider has shown his same dominance I
26139s would just say the league overall has
26141s leveled up the the top eight is so close
26147s right now Mike used to have Mike and
26148s spider used to have a pretty big Edge in
26150s fighting with 225 nearing the rear under
26154s big clutch moments but I would say more
26156s players are getting clutched right now
26158s and I I really have to keep saying this
26160s that because of the name change a lot of
26162s the times these guys have faced a lot of
26164s their demons facing yourself as a
26166s competitor you're really playing against
26168s yourself out there not your opponent and
26171s when you don't see someone's name you
26174s remove a lot of the anxiety a lot of
26176s that comparison and instead you just
26178s start making sure that you're locking
26179s into your own strategy and these guys
26182s have definitely pushed the limits of
26184s every aspect of nraa solos right now the
26187s offs spawn the mid game the end game
26190s Yang depletion to situations the
26192s Alternatives you can do so the fact that
26194s you can play off spawn now take a big
26196s risk and keep going at it no one has a
26199s fear uh of really taking a loss off
26202s spawn cuz they know they can recover in
26204s middle and even in end game you're
26206s seeing a lot of comeback strategies
26208s coming forish people bringing it from
26210s the depths and finding a win and look
26213s look at Mike Mike is looking a little
26215s pressed a I mean he's looking in still
26218s good spirits he's been here before he
26219s definitely can clutch up fall looking a
26221s little bit impressed as well definitely
26223s locking in made its Match Point Fon can
26226s take it too and will we see a different
26229s strategy take this tournament normally
26231s we're used to that dominant Yang
26233s strategy but it looks like oran's slow
26236s and steady strategy bong slow and stady
26238s strategy still showing up big at the
26241s finish line and all what really matters
26243s is who crosses the Finish Line who takes
26245s that first place and it's a lot closer
26248s than we've ever seen
26249s it yeah this is definitely one of the
26252s closest games that we have seen for a
26255s very very long time it's we do see close
26259s games but it's not this intense when it
26262s gets this close it's not the two Titans
26265s and everybody so close in proximity on
26269s Match Point that it's going to come down
26271s to the last kill who's going to come
26273s away with that first place Victory it's
26275s getting
26277s so intense right now we're going to see
26281s no off meta picks F2 V1 on the Justina
26285s F1 for verse on the
26288s AOS F2 for Star F2 V2 for the hotties F2
26294s V2 for the vdas F2 V2 for the Matari F1
26299s V1 for the Tessa F1 V3 for our resident
26303s Tami and F1 V1 for the Liam
26308s use pretty standard across the board
26311s we're going to be taking a look now at
26313s the spawn points ladies and gentlemen

26876s gets the 211 over into the jump L and B
26879s and spider and might are Relentless they
26881s can never stop ladies and gentlemen they
26884s don't give up the one HP in a dream
26886s clutch situations are just insane this
26889s game Mike and spider on top
26892s holy spider up the four kills both of
26896s them clutching it up like you were
26897s saying St one HP and a dream it's never
26900s over it's always winnable Mike painting
26904s Mount goes for the Fatal back one charge
26906s AIS get runs up runs that one charge
26909s Parry now Mike
26911s in a tough situation no armor to his
26913s name he's going to fade out throw the
26915s double charge again this time not going
26916s to release a double charge a going to be
26918s throwing out the Parry Mike going to
26919s throw out a Parry this time fading away
26921s gets the one charge through goes for the
26922s double charge Perry not able to get it a
26924s going to send him into the air one two
26927s three rmbs but the gold combo break
26929s going to be coming out from Mike he
26930s doesn't want to be put in the Montage
26933s AIS going to be put on notice scale be
26935s coming out nice double charge trap
26937s coming out from AIS now AIS goes for the
26939s ship Parry has a comma break up gets the
26941s uppercut denying the scale Rush from
26944s Mike tap Dodge roll Mike going through
26947s lmb going to be coming out over and over
26949s shift lmbs Mike trying to clog the lane
26952s but he's down to a sliver of Health he
26954s needs to get an armor reset he's looking
26956s for an armor friend right now he does
26958s get onto the roof AIS going to just
26960s commit to this though want to get the
26962s hit 1.5 Perry Mike though with the gold
26966s F going to tap Dodge roll out of that
26967s situation terrain's going to grieve AIS
26969s right now he is going to get the double
26970s charge through but this time Mike is not
26972s going to crack he's going to double hold
26974s an A's face and he's going to put him in
26976s the ground now Mike up the three kills
26979s spider up the four kills we're neck to
26981s neck it's a race to take this last game
26985s down it's not clear who's going to win
26987s it can verse bring this back and keep
26990s this close they're unkillable they're
26994s 15% unkillable right now there's no way
26998s that Mike survives that it's absolutely
27001s insane what these players are doing
27003s right now Mike Vermilion bird might is
27005s going to go down he would have been okay
27007s it would have been back into this game
27009s even if he had gone out past is going to
27011s get eliminated here we are going to see
27013s te star still struggling to get a soul
27016s Bloom is going to be on the back foot
27018s trying to recover uh and get some heals
27020s in but uh is going to be in a lot of
27023s trouble with spider giving Hot Pursuit
27025s especially with that gold dagger in hand
27026s it's going to be hard to get away from
27027s him spider trying to keep up Chase is
27031s actually going to get his ankle broken
27032s pretty quick like tar was able to get
27034s away for a quick second and spider still
27037s finding the scent seeing if he's able to
27039s keep up the chase looks like he's going
27041s to do a little bit of looting we are
27042s going to see bit of a replay on jdg Chu
27045s Jang versus drg's Fong huge play coming
27049s through and this is how Fong was
27051s eliminated another stun into another
27054s charge of the ultimate that's how he
27056s goes out 14 seconds left spider needs to
27058s die really quickly here otherwise he's
27060s going to be a lot of trouble and
27062s uh he's got 10 seconds left he's going
27065s to have to get out of here or he dies
27067s right
27069s now oh my
27072s goodness no way he aled the wrong time
27075s and now he's one HP in a dream spider
27077s with a misplay here was trying to let
27079s himself go down because his Vermilion
27082s was almost expired and he almost
27084s misplayed that greatly oh my
27087s goodness look at it spider's having a
27090s good time he smil he's smiling in this
27092s spot he's okay with the mistake he's not
27094s letting it get to himself that's a heart
27096s of a champion right now spider locked in
27099s up to four kills he can still secure
27101s this win now
27102s unfortunately doesn't get that nice
27104s benefit from canceling his ultimate as
27108s as he much as he did it before so spider
27111s is going to be vulnerable going into
27112s this next round with Yang good thing for
27114s him though Evan tide that Tower very
27117s very good to kite unfortunately though
27120s not be setting not going to be setting
27122s up for the realm of Yang so Mike is
27125s going to have an opportunity to catch up
27127s and tie this up but more importantly get
27129s that gold armor he raes up to that gold
27132s weapon can I believe shenu Wan have that
27135s same success or with Mike's adjustments
27138s going to be too much in this Grand
27139s finals gra B is going to be coming out
27142s shenyuan going to be looking for the
27144s Parry overh hold going come out we're
27145s going to get AIC Katana duel coming out
27147s jumping lmb try to deny the scale rush
27149s but Mike's going to get that scale Rush
27150s rush through shenyuan going for the
27152s scale Rush up he's going to see Mike
27153s holding right now Mike with the cancel
27155s going to opt to go for it heal but
27156s shenyuan going to keep up the pressure
27158s going to get the nice uper combo going
27159s through big fry going to be coming out
27160s and Mike's going to fall to shenan
27162s shenan has Mike's number this time in
27165s this second real of Y tough break for
27167s Mike but we've seen Mike before in KOA
27170s bring this clutch up in that situation
27172s can he do it again we're get verse
27173s versus Chang first this is a really
27176s really critical point he's been on the
27178s cus of greatness all day chuang though
27181s is going to be the gatekeeper this time
27184s chuang wants to walk through the door
27186s wants to show everyone that he can win
27188s on the big lights as well but is it
27190s versus time right now nice both of these
27193s guys Fade Away sitting right outside
27195s that zone only chip damage is going to
27197s be coming out choang is going to get
27199s Swift cut through with the katana verse
27201s going to be coming in looks for the
27202s Dodge can not going to get rid Chang's
27204s going to hold his ground throw a double
27206s charge nice bar going coming out from
27207s first chasing him down in the mid-range
27210s can verse find the Finish onto choang
27214s Swift Cut's going to be coming out Chang
27217s opting to go on the pillar slowing it
27218s down with the cannon shots 30 seconds
27220s left though we're going to distance
27221s right now Al's going to be popping out
27223s for Chang versus verse F going to be
27227s coming out Al going to be coming out
27229s finally for the AOS he is going to get
27231s stagered into the uppercut tough break
27233s no more combo break for verse big damage
27235s going to come out the follow is not
27236s going to come through he's going to look
27237s for the light attack not able to get a
27238s chang going to throw the flash but bur
27241s going to Swerve out of there the Canon
27244s shots are coming out bur desperately
27245s trying to go through he's going to try
27247s to tap Dodge I but he's not going to be
27248s able to do it chuang will clutch up that
27250s second realm of Yang oh it's looking
27253s like it's coming up spider ladies and
27255s gentlemen Mike is on Yang depletion and
27259s so is verse T225 is eliminated aranos on
27264s two eliminations on
27267s Tessa it it's going to be a very long
27271s shot for Mike to be able to come through
27273s with this he does have the ability to uh
27276s Come Away with an elimination but spider
27278s with a
27279s dagger on even tied Temple it's going to
27282s be very difficult kiting situation for
27284s him there ewg Zano on the top first and
27288s Mike on the middle on the very bottom we
27291s have XY as well as we see spider there's
27294s so many levels to this Temple it's going
27297s to be very difficult for these players
27298s to catch and hold on to an enemy long
27301s enough to be able to eliminate them as
27303s Mike finds AO is going to go for the
27306s lone Tessa in the lobby but like I said
27309s oh my goodness the
27311s Flaming the Flaming Lantern almost
27314s getting Mike it would have been a sad
27316s story to see happen as now arano doing a
27319s great job of King out here looks like
27321s Mike has lost uh arano ankles have been
27325s broken mikee now focusing his energy
27327s onto a different Target like he's going
27329s to be trying to find somebody anybody to
27332s take his attention onto jujang getting a
27335s double charge of damage a second one as
27337s well as we're going to see verse jumping
27339s into the mix Chu Jang up on the top
27342s looks like we are going to go for the
27343s chase on a Chu Jang here we're seeing
27346s him holding Blue with the gold P sword
27350s in hand XY with a gold P sword as well
27353s very very dangerous forces as fpx verse
27356s desperately searching for a Bloom as
27357s well as ug's Mike three eliminations of
27360s PE Yang depletion imminent three they
27363s are so close to winning this whole thing
27366s and they both lost their
27369s yangs this is a moment of champion so
27372s verse has his work out I've seen Mike
27374s win this before spider in a really
27377s really good spot up to four kills but
27379s what we've seen throughout this year Seb
27381s though all the MVP round MVP they all
27385s fiercely fight this out and someone
27386s sneaks in who's not in contingent to win
27389s the MVP and they just ladder up and
27391s you're seeing choang up to four kills
27392s right now Chang's going to just play
27394s this nice and consistent wait for
27395s someone to overcommit cuz right now
27398s everyone in the top five is trying to
27400s win this thing arono trying to win this
27403s thing spider Mike burst all these guys
27406s if they MVP this round they ship this
27408s tournament the points do not matter 225
27411s unfortunately going to be falling in his
27413s spot his nice second play somehow he's
27416s found his his calling in nraa in the
27420s second place spot but Mike spider ver
27423s orano all fighting in contention for the
27425s first place
27427s spot will they be able to do that Mike
27429s already down to one minute it's looking
27432s dire for my man spider spot sees Mike he
27438s is going to be moving moving out of
27441s there the
27442s constant Gil rushing has the fan set up
27445s but Mike is going to go for the weapon
27447s swap gold app's going to be invested
27448s from spider but
27450s how can you catch this the scale Rush
27452s it's too instant it's Ramen nood you
27455s can't catch this man he's moving too
27457s fast for Mike to close the distance 30
27460s seconds are going to be left Mike's in
27462s off to heal his armor right now he is
27463s going to find verse can he close the
27465s distance he's out of grapples too this
27468s is not the way you want to go out Moon
27470s B's going to come in do we get the paid
27472s actor of moon Bane to help out Mike in
27475s this spot Mike goes for the one two we
27480s swap Perry not able to get it goldf is
27482s going to be invested but Tessa coming
27484s out of nowhere aano with a third party
27487s two seconds left 1 second left Mike is
27491s going to fall to verse and verse is up
27493s the three four kills right now Mike or
27495s verse and spider are tied up choang as
27498s well who's going to take it six people
27501s left verse was able to grab the Bloom as
27504s well which is huge for him here allowing
27507s him to continue into this game for
27509s eliminations on the board for him here
27511s as everybody starts to clamor around it
27514s looks like ver is going to be able to
27515s escape this situation though nobody
27517s giving too much of an aggressive Chase
27519s onto him he's got to watch out for that
27520s flaming cage though could be a dangerous
27522s spot chujang almost getting hit by the
27525s Bane there we're going to see spider
27526s just going to hold this Bell area seeing
27528s if he can uh test out the location of
27531s some of his enemy players uh he's got a
27534s very decent load out going on for him
27536s here he's got the gold dagger in hand
27538s the watermelon
27540s looking dagger gold dagger is going to
27543s be outputting a lot of damage as we're
27546s going to see spider now trying to
27547s contest this Spirit well and now we're
27550s seeing one player getting dangerously
27552s low here it looks like they've been hit
27553s with a Tesa charm as well Chang no he
27556s didn't get hit with a charm but he's
27557s getting hit with a scale rush over and
27559s over again arano coming away with a
27560s beautiful elimination here putting him
27563s onto three kills and now verse jumping
27565s into the mix trying to see if he can
27566s make anything happen spider is going to
27568s be the one to claim the Mystic might bu
27570s and the gold armor oh my goodness we see
27573s aano on three kills bur on four spider
27577s on four Chiang is out who was on four
27580s wuang and XY zero and two
27585s eliminations you know imagine XY gets
27589s the last four eliminations in the first
27590s place
27591s finish I mean it wouldn't surprise me
27595s and then it goes down to points with
27597s verse taking taking the first th this is
27601s how competitive right now solos is it's
27604s not very clear of how to win this
27607s situation the eight rounds is absolutely
27610s brutal this is the end of the marathon
27612s the last stretch everyone is trying
27616s their absolute hardest to find a win
27618s right now Rono wasn't even contention
27621s before and he just suddenly has a burst
27624s of frags right at the end of this
27626s tournament just seizes the moment
27629s putting themselves in it but we're
27630s getting spider with the 211 looking for
27634s the followup com going to come out from
27636s Shuan spider just throwing out the blues
27639s look at his my man double charge Perry
27641s is going to be coming out shenyuan
27642s holding his ground though spider has to
27644s be careful right now he is going to pop
27645s his ultimate he does have the gold armor
27647s in over there but the moon Bane oh no
27650s spider can he get the gold armor reset
27653s the moon Bane isn't going to take him
27654s down that would have been heartbreaking
27656s if the moon ban took him down spider
27658s does get the golden armor he's going
27660s back in he's going for a kill right now
27661s shenan with the white armor spider wants
27664s his revenge but shenan still has that
27667s Destina ultimate spider has to be
27668s carryed right now Moon's going to be
27669s coming out ch's getting juggled right
27671s now everyone's coming in for this last
27672s kill who is that it's verse with his
27675s pord looking for the scare not be able
27676s to land it arano diving in with the
27679s Tessa as well everyone desperately going
27682s for shenan but shenan with the LMS of
27684s the dagger creating some space with the
27685s move ban barely missing him can he find
27688s the space to get this heal off we're
27690s down to the last 4 minutes and 40
27692s seconds the 8 80% Moon ban absolutely
27696s creating so much drama for all these
27698s players but it allows Shuan to fade the
27701s pressure of aano spider and verse sper
27706s has to be careful right now he is able
27708s to get this reset though oh my goodness
27710s SE we got four kills on Seb or four
27713s kills on ver four kills on spider three
27715s kills on aono anyone can still take this
27718s it's coming down to the last moments of
27721s who's going to be your nvp solo
27723s Champions I got to
27726s say I think it's going to be spider can
27729s he do it he's in the perfect spot he has
27731s the character to do this it's really in
27734s his moment he catches genuine again
27736s combo break going to be coming out last
27738s hit situation orano though coming again
27741s with the third party he is going to tie
27743s it up tie for this S no way there's one
27749s kill other than the three of them and
27751s it's going to be on to x1's
27753s Wang out oh my goodness this is crazy
27756s four kills reverse four kills for spider
27758s and like we said this is going to be the
27760s craziest game in nraa history that
27763s you've ever seen in a finals and did we
27765s lie no we didn't this is
27768s absolutely insane Wang right now with
27770s the Swift cut trying to hold space
27772s spider just holding that last little bit
27774s of Zone on the inside of the Hut able to
27777s get himself a perfect reset back into
27779s this game he's going to jump back in
27781s he's got Al he's got everything ready
27785s andang is now going to seem to be their
27787s next Target I believe as four kills for
27790s verse four kills for spider four for
27792s auno it's really going to come down to
27794s the wire here whoever pulls ahead in
27799s eliminations first is going to run away
27801s with it and then the kill multiplier at
27804s the end is going to be our deciding
27806s factor ladies and gentlemen this is
27808s going to be a big one I'm shaking right
27811s now everybody at home buckle up get your
27814s popcorn ready this is sure to be the
27817s finish of the
27818s century white Air with the scale rushing
27821s everyone slowing it down remember as
27824s viewers as casters we know how many
27827s kills these players have vers spider
27830s orano it's a really really ambiguous of
27833s who's in the lead but four kills is
27835s going to feel comfortable now you do get
27837s a decent amount of placement points and
27838s if you get that first place the 1.2 M
27840s play surely we secure it so all these
27843s guys know that this last decision these
27846s last couple moments are going to be
27848s critical we're going to a heal off
27850s situation with a couple trees a lot of
27852s thick foets is going to be very very
27854s hard to figure out who is who in this
27856s position tough bet for spider Tessa does
27860s soft counter CTI first on the AOS not
27863s the best character to win this heal off
27866s situation so he's hoping for a little
27868s chaos in order to secure this we do have
27870s the Wild Card the Matari of wuang he is
27873s going to be doing that big damage with
27875s the dash throughs with the teleports I
27877s don't know who's going to take it but
27878s spider definitely in a really really
27880s good position to take this as long as he
27882s can avoid arano but arano has been on
27886s fire he's been slow and steady and
27888s consistent going into these last little
27890s bits but can spider find these last hits
27894s abuse the burn damage of hottie and find
27899s this
27900s elusive win he's been seeking over his
27903s rival Mike Mike has finally fallen in
27906s that third plays he's not able to
27909s continue his dominance in solos there's
27911s going to be a new king of solos at least
27915s going into this world spider immediately
27918s is going to get Tesa Ed by arano he's
27921s going to pop the ultimate try to take to
27923s the SKU try to deny this damage but he's
27924s going to fall on the center of everyone
27926s everyone's immediately going to be
27927s shredding him now good for him he is
27928s able to take thisy guys pop a couple
27930s heals right now but everyone is going to
27932s be isolated looking for spider he's not
27933s going to be able to get these triple
27934s Charges going into this heal off
27936s situations how can he win this spot bur
27939s has his old orano still has his old Wang
27941s is still on his old spider just going to
27943s take this guy on the low ground though B
27944s is going to pop the tiger all he's going
27946s to be forcing everyone out of this low
27948s ground it's not safe on the ground the
27949s Tiger Claws are out Wang takes to the
27953s sky as well he's looking to stall out on
27956s matar but spider all the way up there
27958s he's going to be able to stay up healthy
27960s as possible Wang now on the ground going
27962s to hit verse a little bit lower the time
27964s is ticking verse in a tough position
27966s blizz going to be coming out from spider
27968s he gets the first kill that's one in the
27970s books AR is going to get the second one

28477s ladies and
28479s gentlemen wbg
28481s spider the winner of the 2024 Summers
28485s split Naro blade Point Pro he wins the
28488s grand finals in spectacular fashion
28492s comes back alss so early in that final
28495s Circle he gets brought inches away from
28498s from death multiple times in that final
28501s fight he kites all the way up into the
28503s sky holds for as long as possible picks
28506s up a beautiful elimination and holds out
28508s for the tie then by default with the
28512s amount of points he's had he had more
28513s points than aono overall and he has
28517s become the victor of the mvpl summmer
28520s split of 2024 Raven what a game I
28524s thought we had a tie for a second I
28526s thought we were going to have to go to
28527s game nine for a second there
28531s I'm pretty sure they was a tiebreaker
28532s depending on who was the higher points
28534s but still congratulations to spider I've
28536s been saying it the entire time he's
28538s looked different this entire year he's
28541s almost looked bored he's looked super
28542s dialed in and for the first time it it's
28546s it's not surprising to me that his coach
28549s his main point to spider was just to
28551s enjoy the game he spider was saying for
28554s the full year that he felt very burnt
28556s out he felt like the pressure Mike was
28558s getting to him and he he it looked like
28560s he just wasn't having fun and I saw it
28564s in the first two or three games that
28567s normally he was looking very locked in
28568s very iced off but I saw that he wanted
28571s it again and it was something that I
28572s hadn't seen from him before and I saw
28574s even in the later games when things were
28576s going wrong he was laughing it off he
28578s looked like he was enjoying himself he
28580s was still locking in and looking for the
28583s next play it didn't matter if things
28585s went wrong it didn't matter if he got
28586s hit by a moon Bane he just kept playing
28588s the game and staying in it and that's
28590s what the heart of a champion looks like
28592s congratulations to him he fought to the
28594s very end and this what I was saying SE I
28596s all the match point games for solos even
28599s for trios has been full of drama the new
28602s rule set really pushes the limit of what
28605s these competitors are capable of we even
28608s saw the bottom half Chang coming out he
28611s kept fighting in he kept trying to
28612s ladder up he didn't just give up and
28614s just gave up and threw his game away he
28617s tried to the very end he almost stole
28619s away from the MVP it would have came
28620s down to points then and the the outcome
28623s would have been very different then
28624s verse would have taken it I've seen that
28626s happen as well under these rule sets but
28629s it's not going to come down to that
28630s point literally spider comes down with
28633s the blistering and I've been saying time
28636s and time again these end games are so
28639s dialed in so hard to win burn damage
28642s poison Splash that blistering Edge comes
28645s in big and something that I never really
28648s saw from SW four is his Focus attack
28651s game he was always really really big on
28653s pairing running Dodge games and
28655s punishing people for making mistakes not
28657s really taking risks himself and we see
28660s him lock in that last little bit find
28662s the good folks attacks coming in and
28665s clutching it up it was spectacular to
28668s watch and spider is definitely deserving
28671s and a great goat that Nara is blessed to
28673s have oh 100% he's he's revolutionized
28678s the sport sport the esport if you will
28680s he's he's changed the game completely
28683s he's made the ceiling of skills so much
28686s higher for these players without spider
28687s we wouldn't have so many techniques and
28691s uh strategies that we do now he's helped
28694s the evolution of the game so much in any
28697s single region he not only CN but he's
28699s inspired people in other regions as well
28702s his play style
28703s is never ceases to amaze the people who
28707s watch him he is
28709s always on always
28711s amazing always
28713s fighting he
28715s is is someone to look up to honestly
28718s like fighting through all of this the
28719s pressures of Mike coming back it's a
28722s beautiful comeback story you know we see
28723s spider win the mvpl we SE Mike win Mike
28727s win Mike win now it's back to spider and
28730s now we're going to Jacob and it's going
28732s to be who's going to win
28735s there honestly this was a really really
28738s competitive Lobby probably the hardest
28739s variation of solos we've ever seen and
28742s for spider to transcend and do super
28745s well in the stage I know this has to be
28747s really really good for his confidence
28749s setting up for worlds now honorable
28750s mentions to everyone else all everyone
28753s who made an MVP for that match point had
28755s a spectacular tournament and and you see
28758s how hard fought how much prep went into
28762s this you saw an on verse' face uh Mike's
28765s face coming into that shortcoming even
28767s 225 came out swinging and at the end
28769s Fong and orano coming in with the that
28772s slow assassin play playing outside of
28775s Yang sometimes inside Yang but multiple
28777s play Styles making it to that last
28779s little bit it's a good sign if multiple
28782s strategies are working right now in
28783s order to win even on the highest level I
28786s love to see multiple ways of winning we
28788s even saw some off meta plays coming out
28790s from R the V2 coming in big finding some
28793s clutch up situations uh Fong still
28797s showing up big showing the tri and true
28799s everyone playing so many different
28802s situations in this tournament not seeing
28804s that just W King working out a lot of
28807s people kiting out and and a lot of
28810s finesse being utilized right now the
28812s importance of coaching as well I know
28815s that spider has been struggling with his
28817s mental it's very obvious that he was and
28819s the coach just said I wanted him to have
28821s fun and this is what spider looks like
28823s having fun first place oh 100% I mean if
28828s you're not having fun at first place
28830s what are you doing um seven points go to
28834s both arono and spider but spider had
28836s more points over the day so he is going
28838s to be able to come away with
28844s it oh so the tiebreaker actually came
28847s from the amount of damage that was given
28849s in the game spider had 17K and arano had
28852s around 10,000 so it really came down to
28856s the last game this wasn't who had more
28858s points point over the day it was 17K
28860s damage versus 10K damage 7,000 more
28864s damage orano just needed to get a little
28865s bit more active in these early games and
28868s instead he was getting a lot of his
28870s kills off these third parties right
28871s which is great but when it comes down to
28873s this tiebreaker he either needed that
28875s last kill or he needed 7K more
28879s damage yeah the the damage I mean we saw
28882s spider going at it over and over and
28884s over he was taking fights over and over
28886s and over Ron also actually AR was
28890s playing more of a hit and run Style just
28892s being efficient with his killing it's
28893s it's a shame that it came down to just
28896s damage but it really was down to the
28900s wire spider with his off spawn able to
28904s win out multiple fights we seeing the
28907s one whole two meta into the slap Chen
28911s just reeling from the Relentless
28914s pressure from the spider no waste of
28916s movement right there and you see the
28917s clutch up the reverse 100 to Zero from
28920s ewg Zana coming down even taking down to
28923s the liks of 225 committing in the moment
28925s running the gamble play on Mr gamble
28927s himself same thing with my inside realm
28931s of Yang coming with the one HP clutch up
28933s spider as well force in this really
28936s really tough spot but when there's a
28937s will there's a way 211 against the
28940s corner spider is able to clutched up
28942s versus Star it doesn't matter arano
28945s again 211 with the Hong sword keeping a
28948s competitive we all tied up it comes down
28950s to this last little bit aano does his
28953s best to get the Tesla out on the spider
28955s but spider is able to clutch it up tie
28957s it up orano does his best to take down
28960s spider there but the Zone damage did not
28963s take him down you might see a different
28966s world if oran's able to force out spider
28969s down there so very close at that last
28972s little bit he desperately makes the best
28975s play he can and just again a game of in
28978s just barely doesn't take the first place
28982s away from
28984s everyone and taking a look total points
28988s over the day 35.1 points verse actually
28991s ends up with more points the uh 40.9 but
28997s because spider MVP the game he is going
29000s to come away Victorious the uh the
29002s ranking points are going to go 60 for
29005s reverse 45 for T225 35 for Mike 30 for
29009s aono and 25 for Fong this is going to be
29013s points I believe that are going to help
29015s them qualify for worlds yeah we do have
29018s the cad Main Line qualifiers next
29020s weekend do believe that that is what
29022s that's for taking a look at the total
29024s damage over the day 20 thou or that's
29029s 200,000 damage for spider
29032s 198,000 for Mike with one more
29034s elimination spider actually 29 elimin
29038s Elations for gt25 with 176,000 damage
29041s 170,000 damage for Wong with 31
29044s eliminations 39 kills 166,000 damage uh
29049s for burst 18 eliminations with 158,000
29053s damage for XY 34 eliminations with
29056s 157,000 damage Tonto chuang had 28
29061s 148,000 damage
29066s 25,6 damage
29069s most of it coming from the hung swword a
29071s lot coming from the nunchucks and fist
29073s blades some from the spear some from the
29075s fans some from the staff and the rest
29077s from a jumble of others what a crazy
29082s amount of damage the total killer kill
29084s leader is actually going to go to Mike
29088s he is going to be getting the award for
29089s the most amount of kills in the finals
29091s which is 40 total eliminations he had
29094s that one pop off game and nobody could
29096s recover from that
29099s I mean Mike had a spectacular day I feel
29103s like the
29105s ballista death plus the long long pause
29109s definitely iced off a lot of his
29110s momentum and momentum is really really
29113s big for these eight games
29116s like it it's a grueling process playing
29119s eight games even six games is is really
29121s really long
29124s but uh credit to all the competitors for
29128s having that mental resolve going all the
29130s way to the end and you see still by all
29134s the stats 225 Mike spider some of the
29136s most dominant Fighters but you see the
29138s likes of verse showing up big with how
29141s competitive they are now I don't know
29143s about average damage SE I don't think
29145s that's the biggest indicator definitely
29146s being efficient with kills is probably
29147s more important lasting it but it is an
29149s indication of how much you're one V
29152s oneing How much you're just fighting off
29155s spawn taking Raw One V1 for and doing
29157s the heavy lifting and still Mike and
29160s spider the stats don't lie they are
29162s still the juggernauts of the lobby they
29164s are still to be feared as far as their
29165s fighting capability and this time around
29168s spider comes out on top it's going to be
29170s exciting going into Worlds will Mike
29173s come back and bounce back being very
29176s very hungry for the first time Mike has
29179s been shown that he is Mortal compared to
29182s these other players and we're seeing a
29183s happier spider you I definitely saw in
29186s spider that the work is not over even
29189s though he was happy with this when you
29190s saw relief in his eyes he's definitely
29192s looking to the next bit worlds is going
29194s to be the next coveted prize for him but
29198s something really really cool Seb that
29200s I'm looking forward to at Worlds is just
29202s how many good players are there now you
29204s see the likes of aranan Fong how
29207s complete everyone's game is I think this
29209s is probably going to be the most
29211s competitive year of solos we've ever
29212s seen going into
29214s Worlds yeah it's definitely going to be
29217s an
29218s Insanity once we get to Worlds we're
29220s going to get to see the top players from
29223s the CN that we just W witnessed battle
29225s it out and then we're going to get to
29227s see how they mix and mesh with the top
29230s talent from North America from EU from
29232s Sea from as and it's going to be chaos
29236s it's going to be amazing and it's going
29238s to be so much fun I'm so excited to see
29241s how world is going to turn out group
29242s stage is going to be very soon so I'm
29244s super excited about that and uh
29248s I'm I'm I'm excited to kick worlds off
29249s it's going to be a bang and uh I'm
29252s excited to see you over
29254s there thank you it's been a it's been a
29258s long year and we're
29260s looking the top three players of the nbp
29264s ales will be making the J cup they're
29267s not going to have to go through the
29268s mainland qualifiers wbg spider with his
29271s first place is going to be shipping it
29273s through Mike's going to be getting
29274s through as well and verse verse has been
29277s top three like I'm most people don't
29278s know Mike and spider kind of overshadow
29281s him but he's been super super solid in
29284s these really really big tournaments
29286s maybe not every single bi-weekly finals
29288s maybe not every single day on the group
29290s play but when it comes to these big
29291s finals KO cup ver has been showing up
29294s very very big he is going to deserve
29298s rightly so get a spot going to Jacob now
29301s for everyone else 225 Fong Oro choosing
29304s AIS Pace starve Frost ofis play Lang Sha
29307s X and wuang Shuan they are going to have
29310s to go through the mainland qualifiers
29313s it's going to be a grueling process but
29315s it's going to be very interesting of who
29317s is going to earn their right to stand
29319s and represent the CN side moving
29323s forward it's definitely going to be an
29325s interesting one but we're going to take
29326s a look at the participating teams in the
29328s Chinese Mainland qualifiers we've got
29330s chuang frost wuang star acan arono Fong
29335s Pace sha wangang AIS and T 225 these are
29339s the players who are going to be
29340s competing for the remaining slots in the
29343s J Cup this is going to give them a
29345s chance to compete six games to see who's
29347s going to be going to Worlds you know
29351s we're going to be rooting for our boy
29352s Frost
29356s ofus the offseason much needed break to
29359s a lot of these players it's going to be
29361s a little bit of a low period as we ramp
29364s up going into J but it's still not over
29367s there's still a lot of excitement ladies
29368s and gentlemen tomorrow is going to be
29369s your nvpl trios finals plus the mainline
29372s fin is coming out still a lot of nraa to
29374s be played we're still not at J cup yet
29377s but today for these solo finals I I was
29381s not surprised of how amazing it was
29384s going to be who was going to win I
29386s thought it was going to be
29388s unpredictable uh Seb I was going to go
29391s put my money on Mike but I was saying
29394s that
29395s spider was looking locked in this year
29397s that's why is really hard to pick I
29399s would say it was still a tossup you saw
29401s how close Aon was from stealing it away
29403s and that's what we've seen from time
29406s time again throughout this new patch
29408s throughout these new uh weekly finals
29411s that I felt like the top eight anyone
29414s could rightly win they were definitely
29416s your favorites Mike and spiders just
29418s showing their dominance in fighting but
29420s because of the eight characters multiple
29422s play styles are still making it through
29425s now there is a crazy high standard of
29427s chasing running away playing a lot of
29430s weapons but once you meet that standard
29432s I would say like seven or eight players
29434s are meeting that standard right now
29435s moving forward into Worlds but there's
29439s one person who stands at this top and
29440s I'm happy to see spider finally come
29443s into his best form currently but will we
29447s see an even better form of spider going
29449s in the worlds we'll have to see moving
29451s forward he's definitely in his prime
29453s this isn't his final form you know he's
29455s going to be he's going to be moving up
29456s in the world as uh you know he's got so
29458s much ahead of
29460s him it doesn't stop here you know
29465s 2024 he's going to look back on this 5
29467s years from now and he's going to be
29470s transcended what we even thought could
29473s be possible in this game and it's going
29475s to be absolutely insane this is the
29477s schedule for tomorrow ladies and
29478s gentlemen it's going to be the same
29480s format except the map Pool is going to
29482s be switched around so we have a little
29484s bit of a different rotation of the maps
29485s but it's eight games it's a match point
29487s system
29488s just like that we've got a little bit
29489s more points because you get more kills
29491s in trios there are more players it's
29494s going to be a lot more crazy and I don't
29496s even know if it can get more crazy that
29498s was like that was one of the most
29501s Wild games that I've watched tournaments
29504s that I've watched I have I've casted a
29506s lot of nraa and every single time I
29511s think I say this but this time I really
29513s mean it this is one of the

4083s just handing the trophy back as they're
4085s going to have to compete once again for
4088s this trophy for this title this split
4091s honestly hasn't really been that great
4093s from GG as well so they got a lot of
4095s work to do because we've got wolves on
4098s fire we've got uh JL finding their form
4100s towards the end of the tournament
4102s obviously Bower picking up that third by
4103s weekly as well there are a lot of big
4105s team in the running right
4107s now yeah the competition is absolutely
4110s steep this season it has been crazy how
4113s much these teams across the board have
4116s just improved since our early spring
4119s split there's been a a dnasty if you
4122s will of Titans who have always been at
4124s the very top of the leaderboard and come
4126s this season some of these teams have
4128s finally woken up and said that they are
4130s tired it is time for us to mount to coup
4133s and overthrow the Giants Jake
4136s yeah you know Alliance being one of
4138s those teams who've really stepped up
4140s over the years the improvements been
4141s absolutely massive there is a lot on the
4144s line today uh I'm very excited for
4146s today's
4147s matches and you know we could go all the
4150s way I I I feel like today could be one
4152s of those
4153s days all of the teams are picking to the
4156s stage here for this opening
4158s ceremony it's going to be absolute
4160s Banger of the day yeah absolutely you
4163s know you and me got to be here in the
4166s prev to do the preal and those preal
4169s were absolutely hard fought by every
4171s single on the stage and it could go to
4174s any single one of them but we're going
4176s to throw things over to a quick video
4177s before we come back and get started
4199s tell man I don't want beef man I
4202s justes man
4205s [Music]
4219s like getting hype on my line tell man I
4222s don't want feedback I just want relax
4223s brand new with twoone I need that
4226s [Music]
4233s [Music]
4251s sh
4272s want
4274s justes man like telephone
4278s gotl
4284s r
4309s for the telephone
4313s [Music]
4335s what's going on the Rocka fans you know
4337s what it is it's your boy The Room Keeper
4338s joining me is my rightand man here Mr
4341s hip rain coming back in from the
4343s pre-finals for trios it is the nvpl
4346s summer 2024 split and we are here at
4349s your trios Grand finals and man just
4352s like we were talking about there during
4353s that opening ceremony things are about
4355s to get heated today so many teams in
4359s contention this could go to literally
4362s anybody Jake this really good I I think
4365s pre finals are a good indicator of that
4367s as well uh when you look back at what
4369s happened in pre-finals no one team won
4372s two games every team was every game was
4375s a unique team winning so I think we we
4378s really are in for potentially a very
4380s very long day uh which is great cuz we
4382s want to see more nraa get as muchaka as
4386s start that again get as much naaka in as
4388s we can before we uh before we go off to
4391s jakup but it's it's going to be you know
4394s it's going to be a very very heated day
4396s a lot on the line uh the match point
4398s threshold has been lowered by Five
4400s Points as well which is also just going
4401s to mean that you know we're going to
4403s have more teams contesting that top spot
4405s sooner rather other than later I'm so
4407s excited for the day I'm really excited
4409s to get going and seeing what what these
4410s guys have got in stock for us yeah
4412s absolutely and speaking of things we'
4414s got in stock for you guys make sure you
4415s guys have your naraka account linked
4417s with your Twitch because we will have
4418s some special twitch drops going on for
4420s you guys today and you don't want to
4421s miss for a chance to compete for some of
4424s those just like these players coming on
4425s the stage today are going to be
4426s competing for that summer split champion
4429s and those coveted points to qualify to
4431s head on to J cup AKA worlds this year
4434s you are not going to want to miss out
4435s just like none of these teams want to
4437s miss out on heading on over to jaup
4439s we're going to take a look here today
4442s there we go we're talking about that
4443s nraa blade Point World Championship 2024
4446s that's going to be held on 12-14 through
4450s 12-15 this year here in December you are
4453s not going to want to miss any of that
4456s action because it promises to be
4458s absolutely inane this year and again
4461s like we really have to talk about it you
4463s know the last couple of years it has
4464s kind of been a idity of a couple of
4467s teams very specifically you know we'll
4469s talk about J team and fun Plus Phoenix
4471s being these two teams who have
4473s absolutely dominated trios and you know
4476s J team being a little bit uh on on the
4479s Wilder side this is a team that during
4481s the regular season for whatever reason
4483s could not bring themselves to come
4484s together but as soon as we would get to
4486s Worlds all of a sudden they were they
4488s were back in their their their top form
4490s absolutely destroying teams and taking
4492s titles but here we are this year and and
4496s uh there is no big big one team ahead of
4500s everybody else and we have a bunch of
4501s teams that have typically been towards
4503s the middle of the pack sitting here at
4504s the top again we had jdg who took a
4506s bi-weekly uh sorry wolves who took two
4509s bi-weeks for trios here and then we're
4511s going to go take a look at our other
4512s ones it was bada and team JL here for
4514s trios and it has been crazy again the
4518s pre-finals alone the fight the scrap for
4522s those spots to get in and qualify here
4524s for the fin
4526s was absolutely insane as we take a look
4529s at our longer schedule here today of
4531s course wbg spider taking the solo finals
4535s uh just yesterday and today we're going
4536s to find out who's going to be walking
4538s away our trios Grand finals and then
4540s next week we've got the Chinese Mainland
4542s qualifier and then just a week after
4544s that uh we're going to be heading on
4546s over to Jacob group stages where we're
4549s going to see who qualifies for those
4550s finals for Jacob yeah it's going to be a
4554s really really good one but these are
4555s teams that are going to be playing today
4556s we've got JL wolves GG Alliance K Bower
4560s drg jdg X1 wbg UG and ewg now most of
4567s these teams have been pretty consistent
4568s with their performance the vast majority
4570s have been to all four of the bi-weekly
4572s finals a few less so X1 obviously
4575s joining the the last two ewg only making
4578s it to one it's they they have impressed
4581s me by the fact they've made it this far
4583s down the down the Run considering how
4584s bad they
4586s their regular split actually was for
4588s them but you know they've made it here
4590s to the finals and that's the most
4591s important part we can see our starting
4594s points so this is based on the
4595s performance that we saw on those
4597s pre-finals two weeks ago drg they got
4600s their work out of them they are at the
4602s bottom of that table but remember the
4604s magic number is 65 it used to be 70 it's
4607s now 65 once you hit 65 points all you
4611s need is an MVP and then you have won the
4614s day you've taken it from every everyone
4616s so if it goes late enough drg can steal
4618s it from underneath everyone at the
4620s moment but we do have wolves sitting at
4622s top of the table and you know I was
4625s starting to worry the Wolves might run
4626s out of steam a little bit after having
4629s the first two bi-weekly finals go under
4630s their Bel and looking very convincingly
4633s I mean they closed out especially that
4635s first week in four games like these guys
4637s were on fire for the first couple of
4640s weeks of the well the first four weeks
4643s of the tournament and then they've
4645s stayed consistent but teetering
4648s downwards a little bit with JL kind of
4649s finding their footing with uh Bower
4652s obviously finding their footing and holy
4654s moly that's a lot of numbers on my
4655s screen I don't have a calculator on me
4658s and I have no ability to translate that
4660s into uh into money that is local to me
4662s but that's a lot of money up for grabs
4665s yeah it is quite a bit of change for any
4667s one of these teams you got to remember
4669s this is just for the grand finals worlds
4672s there's going to be an even bigger pot
4674s on the line for every every single one
4676s of these teams and you've got to
4678s remember today these teams are going to
4680s be very very hungry to lock it in
4682s especially teams like ewg because if
4685s they walk away the champion today they
4688s automatically regardless of the rest of
4689s their performance in the previous
4691s Seasons lock themselves in a spot to go
4694s to world so for some of these teams this
4696s is not quite the last ditch effort but a
4699s a last opportunity to guarantee their
4702s slot to head to Worlds and if you're one
4704s of those teams down on the bottom of
4706s that totem pole you want to make sure
4708s you are climbing as high as you can
4709s today as we take a look at the roster of
4712s games today we going to be starting out
4713s with three nighttime Maps here for our
4716s first three games which means fireflies
4718s are going to be into play and this is
4720s going to be very very important for
4721s these teams because for the first three
4723s games there's going to be Zero Hero
4726s points and we're going to be on standard
4728s rotation uh for these teams in terms of
4731s which phase pick they're going to be in
4733s so those first three games are going to
4734s be very very very crucial for a lot of
4737s these teams going to be forced to play
4739s different teams essentially for every
4741s single game uh going in and it's going
4744s to be those Firefly Maps these are going
4745s to be the maps where you have the best
4747s opportunity to collect as many points as
4750s possible once we go past this the higher
4753s in points you are the further down those
4755s hero uh select phase you are going to be
4757s and that's going to be very detrimental
4759s if you're not past that uh threshold
4762s just yet and you're having to pick
4764s Behind These other teams so these teams
4767s need to strategize and heavily try to
4770s put as many points on the board that can
4772s for these first three games Jake yeah I
4774s mean just to reiterate what you were
4775s saying so to make it nice and clear if
4778s you are at the top of the table you at
4780s the bottom of the priority for picking
4782s and in a pick order so you know how we
4784s normally have the phases with switch
4786s typically that used to kick in after
4788s game four we are just going from that
4791s from the beginning now so wolves are
4793s going to be at the bottom of this pick
4794s order for this first first game uh I am
4797s very excited to see what these teams are
4798s going to have up their belts cuz
4800s typically these are your games where
4802s you're going to look to score some
4803s points um you're going to be looking to
4806s you
4807s know you the the hero points almost
4809s don't matter you just get to pick these
4811s these characters for free in these first
4812s three games and this is where you can
4814s really slingshot yourself forward I'm
4816s excited to see what T comps uh are
4818s coming up cuz you were talking to me
4819s that you know we probably won't see as
4821s much kin as we have been seeing and I
4824s have noticed a trend where K's actually
4826s been slightly dipping in the priority
4829s the zyphon the scan siphon have taken
4832s that that highest priority and zon and
4834s Sanson has been a little bit more kind
4836s of like team based on what teams want to
4838s play what uh wolves have been a little
4840s bit more leaning towards things like the
4842s the sand siphon where um jjl have
4846s actually been really big on on this sand
4848s siphon not Sans siphon sorry the the zon
4850s as you can see so it's going to be very
4853s interesting to see where the priorities
4854s kind of fall
4855s um and if anyone's got anything cooked
4857s up cuz we saw a few teasers didn't we
4860s with the vder comps showing here and
4862s there R those pre-finals so there is a
4865s world where we might have something
4866s spicy jump jumping out today especially
4868s as the teams who are at the bottom are
4871s going to be spending a lot more hero
4872s points to lock in teams so they're going
4874s to hit a point where they actually get a
4875s little bit desperate on what they want
4876s to be playing yeah and I you know the
4879s big things to talk about you know you
4880s talked about kylin seeing a little bit
4882s of Nerf and stuff we are on patch uh
4884s 10.1 7 so this is the patch before Korea
4887s comes out I know a lot of uh people uh
4890s the last patch that came out on 10-30 uh
4892s the new hero crayo was released she's
4894s not available here on this patch We Are
4895s One patch previous this is patch uh uh
4898s 10.17 here uh which do means we do see
4901s some significant Nerfs to kylin uh some
4903s of his damage output being reduced uh
4906s the delay between some of his slashes
4909s also increased as well uh we did see a
4912s small uh buff to vda as well uh her F
4915s ability those water traps uh now can't
4918s be interrupted by grappling hooks so uh
4921s water trap also having uh its ability
4924s change to that golden focus is going to
4925s be very very huge it's going to make vda
4928s much less vulnerable uh during those
4930s stages where she's trying to throw out
4932s those abilities that she needs to either
4934s Escape or help set her team up for those
4937s big big moments so you know we talked
4939s about some of these teams kind of
4941s teasing those vda picks in this is going
4942s to make her even more viable for them
4945s going forward today so it wouldn't be
4947s surprised if we do get to see some balda
4949s coming out uh some adjustments made to
4952s hottie as well nothing too drastic on
4955s that front aside from like the rage cost
4957s for aerial Ascent increasing uh from
4959s that 40 to 60 range uh will affect him
4963s just a little bit but I do think the
4964s comps that he's played in he's still
4966s going to see that play uh with the Kyle
4968s in I just think we're going to see less
4970s of that comp overall
4971s today yeah absolutely I I kind of
4975s we saw the winds change a little bit on
4977s that comp and people were starting to
4978s pick it up a little bit less I do think
4980s it will still have some place especially
4982s for those teams who are going to be you
4984s know starting to burn through hero
4986s points a little bit more effectively
4987s than everyone else they're going to be a
4989s little bit lower on that priority um but
4991s you still have that blind a comp is kind
4993s of like your
4994s go-to comp which doesn't use anything
4997s that's meta other than itself like
4999s there's no shared Heroes for that comp
5001s right with any other comps so uh I'm
5004s excited to see you know how these teams
5006s have actually started to adapt because
5008s we had a stage where like blind a just
5010s felt like a kind of like a fullback comp
5011s for a while and I think people forgot
5013s why they were playing it cuz it's an
5015s amazing third party comp that's what it
5016s excels like you you jump in you blow
5019s your CC you get a kill or two and then
5021s you woen out and what we saw was when
5024s the woen got nerfed and the the range
5026s got shortened on his teleport um well
5030s got changed didn't it it's not his old
5031s anymore if I'm right yeah it's so so
5034s it's actually his F ability now yeah
5037s yeah um but yeah so what we saw was
5040s obviously with the range being shorter
5042s and people easier to hunt down people
5045s kind of got it in their head that like
5046s old woen was dead where it was like
5048s fight till two people are down and then
5049s teleport them out and revive him on run
5051s off um but like you couldn't do that and
5055s I think team's got a bit confused on how
5056s to use the woen and utilize it so I I
5059s I'm preferring to start the what we're
5061s seeing is some of the teams are starting
5062s to jump in grab a coule CP of kills and
5065s before they need to just Port out just
5067s be safe just like it doesn't matter if
5069s the team get the revive cuz you still
5070s get the kill credit and that's how you
5072s kind of get points on the board uh or if
5074s you can catch teams when they are
5076s jumping into the Roma Yang that was
5077s always the biggest one is someone jumps
5079s into the Roma Yang and then a Tessa Al
5081s hits two people and one person's
5083s isolated in the Romo Yang and the other
5085s two are just left alone to be blown up
5088s that that's what we've started to see a
5089s little bit more of from that team so I'm
5091s excited to see the teams pull this one
5092s out as well cuz you know I think it's
5094s been a while since it's looked as good
5096s as it
5097s has yeah I mean the the meta is really
5100s shaped up to be very very interesting to
5102s watch this year in general I think um
5104s I've really enjoyed the changes coming
5106s through I know you've been super happy
5108s about the lack there of uh monk comps
5110s coming through the personal hater for
5113s the transforms coming in from Jak sweet
5116s release the gri of Monk we we have seen
5118s a couple teams try to experiment uh with
5120s some older comps and find mitigating
5123s success uh I'm thinking about Cannonball
5125s comp uh we did get to see last week uh
5127s actually pulled through made it to a
5129s final Circle didn't didn't win that game
5131s uh but did manage to put some
5132s significant points up on the board uh
5135s like you said we've seen some teams
5136s experimenting with the volic comps as
5138s well I would not be surprised today if
5141s uh we saw some teams come through with
5143s some different interesting prps uh that
5146s we haven't seen before or that we
5148s haven't seen in a while uh given the way
5151s the hero point system is set up today uh
5153s and given the desperation for some of
5155s these teams Jake yeah I I I genuinely do
5159s think we're going to see some wild stuff
5160s if and this is the big if if we get
5163s later into the day if one team doesn't
5165s absolutely blow it up and just end the
5167s day quick we're going to start to see
5170s those teams at the top end of the table
5171s actually burn through hero points and
5173s get fairly desperate uh but not only
5175s that they need to be careful CU they
5176s don't really want to like burn all their
5177s good comps at the beginning and then be
5180s running around with like a really
5182s terrible comp for the last games because
5184s then they're not really going to be able
5185s to find that mvp so it's definitely a
5188s balancing act and I'm going to be
5189s interested to see what teams invest in
5193s an explosive game and who are more
5195s conservative because I feel like some
5197s teams are going to basically go we just
5200s go balls to the wall cuz we know other
5202s teams are going to be conservative with
5204s their picks and we just pick the best
5206s comps game after game burn through our
5208s hero points and risk it all for like a
5210s four five game win and that that's kind
5214s of what I'm
5215s almost semi expecting to see from some
5217s other teams but I also do think other
5218s teams are going to be ultra conservative
5221s and make sure that they still have at
5223s least a couple of meta picks for the
5225s later games if they need them yeah you
5228s know uh I'm with you you know we talk
5230s about teams who I think are going to
5232s make those explosive runs out of the
5233s gate I'm looking at Team wolves for that
5235s that's kind of been their MO uh during
5238s the the bi-weekly that they've won if
5240s they have just come swinging straight
5241s out of the gates and especially with the
5243s way today is set up with those first
5245s three games they're not being hero
5247s points and every team having to play a
5249s different composition uh for those three
5251s games and then of course those first
5252s three games also uh being our nighttime
5255s Maps uh being those heavy Firefly Maps
5258s as well I I think it's a good strategy
5261s to come in with especially for a team
5263s like team wolves who has confidently
5265s done that so much this season uh there's
5267s a couple of other teams who do very well
5269s at it uh going forward so I think we are
5272s exactly like you said going to see some
5274s of those teams really come out of the
5275s gate and just gun for that massive early
5278s lead get to that 65 points as soon as
5281s possible and Bank on being able to find
5284s that mvp after that before it gets too
5286s late into the day uh and they lose
5288s access to a bunch of different hero
5290s picks yeah wolves are uh kind of
5293s sprinters and coming from someone who
5296s com legends that sounds really toxic but
5299s I don't mean they're not in that sense
5301s they're sprinters in the sense where
5302s like they aren't built for America
5304s marathan they are built for like 100 me
5306s Dash they're the houan B of of our teams
5309s here at the mvpl like their their role
5312s and their their position is they are
5315s very explosive but their stamina is low
5317s so you know they need to knock you out
5320s in one or two hits or you're just going
5323s to beat them on time uh so yeah I I
5327s think wolves are definitely going to be
5328s that team which we are going to see get
5330s incredibly incredibly aggressive it
5332s looks like we are getting ready to go
5333s into hero select as uh first round
5336s obviously all of our bottom teams are
5338s going to be at the top of the table
5340s every game today so they get first dibs
5342s on everything uh no surprises here R to
5345s see that it's a bunch of siphons and
5347s sand siphons if DG ewg put anything else
5350s in here I I'll do a back flip wait oh my
5353s God I'm doing a back flip oh wow yeah
5356s they Cannonball game one yeah cannonball
5360s with Hardy uh instead of the yodoi this
5363s is very interesting I'm a about this uh
5365s drg this is this is a comp I've seen a
5368s couple of teams experimenting with I
5370s haven't seen anything crazy out of it
5372s but I actually kind of enjoy this
5374s composition you with the hottie as well
5376s if you take the version of the ultimate
5377s where you get the cube you have a really
5379s nice Escape where you can pull somebody
5381s out of a bad situation and then get back
5383s to like the FIA pillar look for a reset
5385s and then a re-engagement and then oh my
5387s goodness we're going to see ug coming in
5389s here with the VA de monk composition as
5392s well as the hottie again we talking
5393s about that Cube that ability to escape
5396s this is a very interesting and then a zy
5398s monk composition as well with the vda
5401s wow okay this is already out of the gate
5404s we are seeing some crazy picks coming
5407s through uh in terms of these players
5410s locking in these compositions uh that we
5412s haven't really seen a lot of we're going
5414s to see I'm in heaven wow it is day it's
5420s a it is a vda day yeah bro I have we
5424s have been Dro Four vs oh oh I'm a happy
5428s boy I'm a happy boy honestly I was Happ
5432s to see the like I swear there's as many
5435s vowers in this game is there uh there
5437s there's three monks too we also have a
5439s kylin monk comp coming in this this is
5442s going to be one of the most interesting
5445s games we have seen in a very long time
5449s yeah I am so excited by this one like
5451s you were saying those changes to V on
5454s her bubbles definitely just did so much
5457s good for her has really put her back in
5459s the priorities we getting ready to go
5461s into game one of our grand finals here
5465s the summer MVP mvpl wow lot of peas in
5468s there they're waking up but I am this
5472s consider this my morning Cofe because
5475s four valers is going to get me in the
5478s zone I'm so excited to see these
5482s teams yeah this is is I I got to take a
5485s look at the hotties here and the Vaas
5487s see what abilities we're taking a look
5489s what we're running um as we go okay this
5491s going to be the vaa F2 V2 no surprises
5493s there the F2 V1 coming in from the
5497s hottie there on team wolves uh again no
5500s big surprise coming in off of seeing
5502s that uh V1 there with the cube coming in
5505s is we keep looking across the board we
5508s got the one sand siphon it's so weird
5510s seeing so many monk vdas coming in this
5513s is just absolutely
5515s insane Yan with the F1 V3 coming in for
5519s the Yan pick there from Team GG with the
5521s votti man this is going to be this is
5525s going to be a crazy game we we've got so
5527s many comps to come up with names for now
5530s Jak oh no what do I
5533s do uh
5535s right monk vder Hardy what do you call
5540s that I think I was calling it soggy monk
5543s but I don't know if that's a good one I
5545s think that's a weak one that's yeah
5547s you're walking a fine line on that one
5550s um anyway drop spots very spread out
5552s actually um obviously Firefly maps you
5554s can see teams trying to grab those
5556s fireflies and get the early rage but we
5558s haven't got like a particular like kill
5560s spot right now I think it's just a lot
5562s of the teams are all in very close in uh
5564s well there's always one team in close
5566s proximity to another there's not
5567s multiple so this is going to be an
5570s interesting one we're going to see a lot
5572s of basically just One V one fights
5575s between the teams here no real third
5577s partying to start off with and then
5579s we'll have probably a whole bunch of
5580s teams looking for resets I want you to
5583s look at where wolves and GG are right
5584s now GG being a team that constantly
5587s looks to get those fireflies from secret
5589s tunnel and look where wolves's position
5591s their position on a gold Zone to
5593s actually be able to push into team GG
5595s before they can get access to those
5597s fireflies and take an early game fight
5599s with him and sure enough already wolves
5601s immediately down here onto the secret
5603s tunnel with team GG the question is who
5605s was able to get those fireflies looks
5607s like 330 was able to get their hands on
5608s one ZK over here already tearing through
5611s lxm trying to get in as we see W ZK will
5614s go down GG's 330 going to come in now
5616s the shroom going to be popped here the
5618s extra damage before the poison tick
5619s looks to come through GG down to one me
5622s or down to two members wolves down to
5624s one XM here no sorry n HQ still going
5627s unfortunately at Old going to be running
5628s out oh there it is he's been able to get
5630s it reactivated trying to come in and
5632s clean up a going to geted here
5634s immediately cut down and wolves off of
5637s the rip unfortunately is going to be
5638s sent back to the soul Ultra GG comes in
5641s even though wolves sets up a good plan
5643s takes the aggressive line they're going
5645s to go down to GG early in game one I
5648s don't care who you are you don't drop on
5650s GG's tunnel man these guys are too good
5652s at it but drg saw what was happening and
5655s now they're coming in for the tidy up
5656s onto GG post fight before the healing
5659s has come in and this could just be an
5660s easy pick here for the side of drg CJs
5664s go goes down nice and easy to Kakashi
5666s there and it looks like the rest of GG
5668s should be able to break away but now
5669s we're looking over at wbg and B going to
5672s to toe Walkers already po that ultimate
5674s with chain just going to start to try
5675s and rip through some of these health
5677s bars looking for that big cone as youu
5679s opens up onto Walker knocking him back
5681s as Walker trying to just close that Gap
5684s cuz Coral Jing is left on his Lonesome
5686s this does mean though that B can finish
5688s up you and they're able to do so with
5689s the chain side nice and effectively
5691s there uran has gone down as well and w
5694s BG just find that turnaround there still
5696s be the World poool Landing onto Walker
5698s but Peak they're out of teammates
5700s they're out of time it's going to have
5701s to be a bloody miracle from them even if
5704s they can land two Spears not going to be
5706s enough wbg win the fight yeah wbg here
5710s now off to a te with three eliminations
5712s to their name as well as team GG going
5715s to be rocking three eliminations drg
5717s with one wolves with one from their
5720s early fight as well wolves still looking
5723s for a decent place to respawn so they
5725s can get their feet back underneath them
5726s here this is a team that typically
5728s though you know they do lose this early
5730s fight they take the aggressive fight
5731s just like you and me thought they were
5733s going to Jake but this is not a team
5735s that typically slows down just because
5736s they lose that early engagement so W's
5739s going to be looking to come back in and
5740s find their way into that real of Yang as
5741s we cut over now it's ug here versus the
5744s members of ewg ug going to pop that
5746s early game Bain breath that blue tier
5747s Bain breath as they come in zenu using
5749s that stone form to block out a lot of
5752s damage here from the enemy team ewg
5755s still trying to break away as we had
5757s into the no old Zone being popped there
5759s out of that Banes breath now King trying
5761s to get away here they they're going to
5762s have that ultimate they will get the ult
5764s off on time here e ewg out in the open
5767s in the no Zone here just going to get
5769s slammed immediately XI goes down and
5772s we're going to see such a smart move
5774s here by the way from the king king
5776s immediately ending that ultimate so they
5777s can head on in to take the fight with
5780s the rest of the team Unfortunately they
5782s do lose two of their team members
5785s immediately to Lu so the king even
5788s though he's able to get that snatch get
5789s a good elimination going Lu going to get
5792s caught out there by the Bane as well uh
5794s is now forced to just completely break
5796s away from this fight and ewg with the 3
5798s to one advantage is going to look to
5801s hunt him down that's a really nice start
5803s there for ewg now cutting over to X1 and
5805s JL in a fight txj losing a lot of HP
5808s here just taken down by XL y just going
5812s to keep that pressure up onto the r of
5814s other members of X1 Z try to hit up with
5817s the fans on the Fang but on Fang going
5820s to be able to hold his life for the
5821s moment vbb get the knock back there from
5823s that tail he going to keep the pressure
5825s up x l y goes into the cube to charm
5828s conect though that's going to be pretty
5829s big going to try and get and touch that
5832s but I don't think they're going to be
5832s able to get it in time connection comes
5835s in but XL x13 getting caught out txj put
5839s able to put some pressure in and JL able
5841s to ultimately win that fight now we do
5843s see jdg versus Alliance as well done by
5845s shipwreck Sandstorm already thrown down
5847s here T got the ultimate on as well so
5850s the shs are available but Alliance have
5853s just scattered to the wind so honestly
5855s feels like
5856s jdg may just have to play as careful
5859s though L looking for the re-engage here
5861s still got the chain SI on to ny7 but he
5863s finds himself immediately bursted out
5864s the zip healing will keep him standing
5866s for just a little bit longer lands onto
5868s a couple of members of Alliance there F
5871s slams into two tick and sets him a blaze
5874s Alliance trying to keep that pressure up
5875s onto jdg here but no one's really going
5878s that low and I say that and then
5880s Alliance find the bur just finishing off
5882s two of jdg complete domination here two
5886s tick goes
5887s down Alliance Prov me wrong they found
5890s the damage yeah that was insane N17
5894s getting the burn tick on everybody there
5896s inside the Kumi Circle preventing them
5898s from getting as much healing from it and
5899s then coming in with that huge charged
5901s lmb off the staff catching out two
5903s members
5904s absolutely locking them down allowing
5907s the rest of the team to tear through
5909s them while they were locked down inside
5911s that charge Delby there from the staff
5913s Alliance cleans up a very dominant fight
5916s as we come back over to team wolves
5917s wolves here off to a really good
5920s recovery here we see two sets of purple
5922s armor two purple weapons on the team as
5924s well as we get ready to set up for that
5926s first set of Realm of Yang and like I
5927s said this is exactly what I expected
5929s wolves to do here off of losing that
5931s initial engagement uh to team GG in
5933s inside secret tunnel is to go loot up
5936s and immediately keep the pressure on
5938s looked ahead of that R of Yang they're
5939s actually going to come back and run it
5941s back onto team GG believe it or not they
5943s are actually stacked uh compared to team
5945s GG here with the double sets of purple
5947s armor purple weapons as well looking to
5949s come in Z doing a little bit of weapon
5952s swaps here wants to get his hands on
5954s that staff rather than have that fan
5956s they're going to push GG away and it
5958s looks like they're going to head up to
5959s take the high ground and potentially
5960s look to start setting up for these
5961s Realms of Yang and again I expect wol to
5964s keep this pressure up to keep the
5966s aggression going because like you said
5968s they are a sprinting team they are not
5970s marathon runners they want to go ahead
5973s take that early lead get to that match
5975s point as soon as possible and they are
5977s not going to let an early fight that
5979s they lose discourage them from doing
5981s that especially when we're on three
5984s back-to-back Firefly Maps Jake yeah I
5987s think we wolves losing that fight
5990s benefited them more than it benefited GG
5992s yeah GG get the points but but what we
5994s saw happen was they lost a single player
5997s and they lost all that loot on that
5999s player like wolves weren't looted by the
6001s time they they went into that cave they
6004s they were barely looted at all so they
6005s were able to just take a fight got a
6007s kill walked away with you know the Lost
6010s fight and then were able to gear up but
6012s GG then lost their gear effectively
6014s after that that cost them pretty heavily
6016s as l oh no txj is able to hunt him down
6020s on the Viper secure that kill
6024s interesting to see that uh it's vvv on
6026s the Tessa and not the Viper vvv is like
6030s the Viper player in my head but I guess
6032s they decid to change that one up as uh
6035s XI you're Charmed you're locked in place
6037s there's nowhere you're going to be able
6038s to go it looks like he's actually able
6040s to break away throws down the sandstorm
6042s as well and is going to get the blink
6044s out here from the members of
6046s JL JL very low actually they need to go
6049s for a reset ewg are going to look to put
6050s some pressure onto these members they
6052s really need to get some healing in this
6054s could get very dicey for the members of
6055s JL here rebirths have worn off as well
6058s this is not how you want to be starting
6060s your game when you are one of the
6061s favorites in the tournament two players
6064s will fall for the side of JL only one
6068s survives overconfidence a little bit of
6071s greed in the zone has paid has cost them
6073s heavily here yeah I mean ewg plays this
6076s really well especially egi that whisp
6079s that they catch out into the Tami
6080s ultimate to be able to buy the team the
6082s time to start resetting well it forces
6084s JL to use their only Escape Tool uh to
6087s back off and they're either forced to
6089s make the decision to re-engage now or
6091s head for the Zone with ewg chasing them
6094s from behind they just do a really good
6096s job of setting themselves up for
6097s successes we do head into the first
6099s realm of Yang today and it's going to be
6101s drg versus the members of Team GG as we
6104s take a look here 330 trying to set up a
6107s huge staff uh charge here but unable to
6110s find it and he sees all of his armor
6112s immediately Stripped Away most of HP
6114s going to be forced into that ultimate a
6115s little bit earlier than he wants here as
6117s now he's trying to turn around and help
6118s the team unfortunately he's he jumps
6120s around the pillar the enemy usan there
6122s WX 98 popping his ultimate he's not
6124s going to get any damage out there now
6126s 330 forced to deal uh with WX 98 or risk
6130s him turning things onto the team here
6132s and unfortunately his old will run out
6134s first he's got to find a way to set
6136s something up for the team here or just
6139s look to peel he's not been able to find
6141s much of anything yet he's going to go
6143s top side there go he's going to get hit
6144s out there by the fair as his ultimate
6146s ends GG's lxm coming in with the
6149s ultimate there on the vao looking to
6150s find some of those Spears drg still in
6153s it going to be dropping the blue armor
6154s for the armor spot to another teammate
6156s the massive Parry coming in from WX 98
6158s the shoulder tackle though coming in
6160s from Yan actually going to save the
6162s members of uh Team GG here they live to
6165s fight a little bit longer lxm even
6167s though the olds active taking the
6168s opportunity to try to get a pot in here
6170s no Spears left forced to come in takes
6172s huge fan R&B here almost nothing left in
6176s terms of HP the F still online finding
6179s time to get some pots off here but GG
6181s still needs to find some more damage
6183s here onto the members of drg there it is
6185s the final member will fall down as GG
6187s finds their sixth elimination of the
6189s game and takes away that first realm of
6192s Yang and it looks like wolves also takes
6194s that realm of Yang like we talked about
6196s and will be coming out on top in their
6197s realm of Yang so you see the point of
6200s the oan right but the problem with this
6203s comp is if you're playing versus another
6205s one the U does nothing except deal with
6208s the other U cuz like that is too hard to
6211s deal with the the the hardies are just
6213s flying in the sky there's nothing that
6215s there nothing the uan can do about that
6217s it's
6218s uh it's tough being a Us in these in
6221s these comps in those games but they made
6223s it work GG able to find the burst big
6226s spear coming in as well from their valer
6229s over the Wolves now with the Vermilion
6231s Birds M as well I to check on JL they
6235s did get eliminated so I saw one of the
6238s players double back uh the the last
6240s standing player double back to try and
6242s pick his teammates up but clearly it
6244s looks like ewg spotted them just before
6246s we went into that R Yang so JL knocked
6249s out in the first game with just Five
6251s Points that's scary when both wolves
6254s Alliance GG all the teams around you are
6257s popping off in this game this could be a
6259s pretty high scoring game for one of
6260s these teams as now it looks like wolves
6262s looking for the revenge
6264s verus
6265s GG both of these teams have that veril
6267s bir might say and have that to work with
6270s Z goes for a grab isn't able to actually
6273s find his Mark though going to have to
6274s look to reposition himself rest of his
6277s team actually doing some work here CJs
6279s is incredibly low on that hard as he's
6281s trying to fly away trying to evade the
6284s grab of this monk here CJs now clinging
6288s to the inside of the building the best
6289s place he can get into is 330 going to
6292s continue to be a bit of a
6297s wet
6298s wolves just to CJs should just go down
6302s here good be the kill who's going to
6304s secure it though cuz drg able to jump in
6307s will secure that kill onto CJs and now
6310s drg with third party know the ultimates
6312s have been burnt this could get really
6313s nasty really quickly GG's lxm going a
6317s little bit low but able to hold fast for
6318s the moment as wolves lose a player to
6320s drg another player from wolves should go
6322s down the Third party has been so
6324s effective here WX 98 looking for the
6327s kill but GG was actually the one to
6328s secure the kill on ZK there massive vou
6331s ultimate lands onto multiple people 330
6335s incredibly low HP Parry coming in from
6337s WX 98 is now ZK zorry Zen going very low
6341s but drg are just taking everything what
6344s a third party from them beautifully
6346s played lxm last man
6349s standing they just tidy up a nice tasty
6351s four kills for themselves five kill make
6354s it yeah this is uh huge for drg but this
6357s is also really good for team wolves
6359s wolves gets that Vermilion Birds might
6360s the immediately lock onto team GG who
6363s also wins that realm of Yang and they
6365s prevent team GG from picking up
6367s basically any eliminations with the use
6370s of that Vilan Birds might while covering
6372s the Gap there so that they're able to
6374s catch right back up and tie them up uh
6377s with GG so huge for them as we cut back
6379s here to the realm of Yang here uh with
6381s the members of wolves versus WB G Jing
6384s just slapped out there by wolv Z the bow
6387s shots coming in from the team allowing
6389s him to go ahead and finish that
6390s elimination off Z going to move away and
6392s de so he has that Shield cuz he ults
6396s before going low so he's able to come
6397s out with a little bit of protection
6398s there uh he does get parried out but now
6400s just using the staff movement uh to give
6403s him a huge advantage while the rest of
6404s the team takes a clean 2v2 and he gets a
6406s chance to reset before he comes in and
6408s starts to help him here Walker trying to
6410s clutch it out here but now EXO goes down
6412s and it becomes a 3v one scenario Walker
6415s still in Ultimate but with three players
6418s still alive on team wolves it's going to
6419s be very hard for them to make anything
6421s happen here Z just taking the brunt of
6423s the damage here allowing the rest of the
6424s team to find followup damage the F
6426s coming in Z able to just tap Dodge avoid
6428s to the side of it as they clean that up
6430s and we see how they win that first realm
6432s of Yang jig yeah really nice also that
6434s little bit of synergy from V which was
6437s hinted that like two years ago maybe
6439s even three years ago where you have the
6442s theer world pool allow you to grab
6445s someone out of it as the monk it just
6446s sets up a free grab there's a little bit
6449s of that Synergy in there wolves whole
6451s bunch of teams in the area see they're
6453s all getting set up for this uh spirit
6456s well there a Mystic mik one in there
6459s yeah it is Miss it might one I think
6462s wolves have decided they got better
6463s things to do I don't think they want to
6464s contest it R with yangs are up that's
6467s going to be the attention here for
6468s wolves and they've got the team to do it
6471s question is is it still open GG in the
6473s area wolves weting it out no one's
6475s jumped in actually you can see on the
6477s bottom right of the screen who's inside
6479s the realm of Yang X1 going to get this
6481s Spirit well nice and comfortably got the
6483s monk transform as well on the inside
6484s just to hold it they'll be picking that
6486s one up and so far no one's gone into a
6488s real of Yang X1 get missed it
6491s might and all the goodies from that one
6493s and uh it is just a waiting game GG and
6497s wolves we can't have them fighting each
6499s other for like a third time that can't
6501s be what happens here oh looks teams are
6503s going in wolves jump in
6507s first and everyone scatters no one's to
6510s fight wolves they just get a free Rebel
6515s young I mean to be fair this second set
6519s of yangs is a highrisk high reward type
6523s scenario which is why wolves more than
6525s happy to go in find themselves this free
6527s realm of Yang walk away with it they now
6529s have that Draco storm the other teams
6531s just decide it's not worth the risk to
6533s head on in uh the problem is is now
6535s you've got to deal with Team wolves with
6536s Draco storm uh as we get ready to head
6539s into that mid game a huge third party
6541s potential as well ug here in a little
6543s bit of a pickle the king throwing that
6544s Bell out way too fast now going to be
6546s forced to monk up and it's going to be
6548s monk B monk here in X1 lyd versus The
6550s King The King finding that huge initial
6552s opening into the fight the king getting
6554s pushed back now still looking for a good
6556s opportunity and a couple of grabs here
6558s uh but X1 finding huge damage onto him
6561s there uh with that b sword to come in
6563s through the burn tick doing so much to
6566s The King The King able to find the cube
6569s and get out here but the question is how
6570s long will U be able to hold on will they
6573s be able to recover from this engagement
6575s with X1 or will X1 be able to keep the
6577s chase up and it looks like zenu going to
6579s get caught out here by XL y zenu still
6581s just trying to desperately break away
6582s here with the movement from the fist
6584s blades but they are going to get cut off
6586s from the rest of the team as X1 now in a
6588s 3v one with ug zenu cut through zenu and
6592s we're going to see them continue to just
6595s hunt down this player and it actually
6597s draws the rest of ug back into a 2v3
6600s Aurora burst coming through though from
6602s the King we're going to see XL y able to
6604s get out of it though and there we go
6605s we're going to see the blistering Edge
6607s come through and continue to tick damage
6609s down on the king a huge Parry the king
6611s really trying to turn things back around
6612s unfortunately he's not going to be able
6614s to find that Aurora burst again here xly
6616s y going to be able to get a pot off
6618s there on the shield as well because the
6620s king currently in a one V2 scenar Mario
6623s coming in the Bell will come in by him a
6625s little bit of time but now it is all of
6627s X1 versus The King The King holding on
6630s for dear life trying to bait them into
6633s an aurora burst if he can find one on
6634s the entire team the uppercuts coming
6636s through not going to let the king touch
6638s the ground here as he takes a ton of
6639s damage he does have the old charge back
6642s up yet again looking to find some of
6644s these grabs he oh my goodness he finds
6647s one oh my goodness SS comes back as well
6649s doing a ton of damage onto XL y we're
6651s see the F invested to save him from from
6653s some of that damage coming through he
6654s almost finds the regrab now he's got to
6657s follow it up SS continuing to chase on X
6659s Y he gets the grab he just oh my
6661s goodness the double grab coming through
6663s X Y goes down ug turns this back into a
6665s 2v2 he's got another grab we see the
6668s Bell coming out on the side of lyd the F
6671s going to be invested as soon as the slam
6673s comes through the king and SS turn
6675s things around they've just got to avoid
6676s this monk long enough to draw this fight
6679s back out but the king gets grabbed up
6681s now we're going to see SS coming in
6683s flying hopefully the double grab does
6685s not come through it could Spell absolute
6686s disaster there we go we'll see the king
6689s grab himself a soul Bloom X1 sees the
6692s potential third party coming through
6693s there and need to break away drg also
6697s waiting in the wings and somehow against
6700s the odds OU keeps it alive the king more
6703s like the goat that guy is so cracked man
6708s insane how long he held the line there
6710s for his team got the AL off and get the
6713s Escape monster performance from ug able
6717s to turn the tides here uh we haven't
6719s actually seen wolves do much with that
6721s uh that Dro it's now timed out but there
6724s is a just a blender of damage and just
6727s repeating crossbows firing into X1 is
6730s two tick able to secure the kill onto LD
6733s off there grab himself some goodies and
6735s uh head off nice little pick there kind
6737s of had a a shooting range for themsel of
6740s X1 and drg members so jdg able to secure
6744s themsel their first kill of the game and
6746s they need it cuz they are at the bottom
6747s of that table walking towards wbg also
6750s relatively low on the table have got
6752s five points for themselves but we do see
6756s X1 lyd obviously going to be timing out
6759s now ug all four three members I mean the
6762s King was able to hold versus three
6765s terrifying to think what the rest of OG
6767s could do as a full unit here as wolves
6768s now getting themsel into a scrap with X1
6771s or they're coming in for a thir party of
6773s a scrap in a fight with X1 and drg Z the
6776s golden sta absolutely obliterating the
6779s health member health bars of Dr this
6782s game is about revenge here for wolves
6783s they got third parted by these members
6785s and they're going to look for the
6786s Revenge now onto them looking for some
6788s bow shots Z able to make that connection
6791s as uh don9 just making a run for it but
6794s he's run into the waiting hands of uh
6798s wbg wolves though not willing to give
6800s that kill up Donkey N9 getting some
6802s serious pressure put onto them there's
6804s also a heaps of teams collapsing in GG
6806s in the area wolves just want to secure
6808s this kill they get the Parry off on the
6810s donkey 9 a whole heap of damage coming
6811s in Golden staff is just going to melt
6813s through the health bar donkey n able to
6815s keep himself away for the moment but
6817s wolves are unrelenting in their
6819s aggression the claws are out here donkey
6823s 9 desperately trying to just use the
6826s terrain to his advantage to break away
6828s and he has just about survived the tick
6831s will not finish him off here
6834s and somehow able to
6837s survive yeah this is a really rough spot
6840s for drg to be in here dq9 already in the
6843s heal reduction that tick doing a lot of
6845s damage as it converts over to Zone 4 now
6847s that it's fully collapse down to one
6850s Health pot one Shield pot and we have UG
6853s and Wolves playing gatekeeper here donu
6855s needs to sit in that bush and uh make
6858s some thoughts happen about their life
6859s decisions unfortunately they're not
6861s going to be given much time cuz wol
6863s comes in and they decide they are going
6864s to check that bush they said nobody gets
6867s away from us as donkey goes extremely
6869s low wolves Z's going to make sure they
6871s secure that elimination as they trade
6873s blows with the members of
6875s ug wolves looking for an opportunity to
6878s take a reset here as ug backs off jdg
6881s shows up and wolves not wanting to find
6883s themselves in that potential third party
6885s especially as they look over the horizon
6886s to see wbg waiting the wings going to
6889s take an opportunity to do just a little
6891s bit of shopping before Zone four starts
6893s to collapse on zone 5 in the next 30
6895s seconds and what a crazy game this has
6899s already become Jake we've already seen a
6902s 2v3 breakout in game one of grand finals
6907s this feels like
6908s Jacob yeah this this is what we I've
6911s been waiting for really excited to see
6913s this one Bower actually getting the
6915s spirit whe for free uh this is a white
6918s tigers one so it's it's not the last
6920s Spirit well so it does reduce chances of
6923s getting another uh white tigers here I
6926s don't actually know if it locks it but
6928s either way is uh not as contested on
6931s this early on this one right now is we
6933s see an alliance who actually pretty
6935s stacked N7 golden nunchucks golden
6937s armor they wow okay two golden Soul
6940s Jades as well onto
6942s Revenge okay Alliance are actually
6944s looking pretty stacked in this game
6946s can't remember how many kills they've
6948s got it's not a whole heap I don't think
6950s I mean ny7 has zero and you're Z so
6953s you're the main damage dealer so
6955s Alliance definitely need to kind of
6956s convert this uh this setup into uh into
6959s kills I they' got a whole bunch it's
6961s just my7 hasn't picked a single one up
6964s seven kills over the alliance they're
6966s pretty set up
6968s actually yeah Alli this honest this game
6970s one is anyone's game yeah this is this
6973s is going to be a crazy final Circle I
6974s don't think we're going have seen a
6975s final circle with this many monks up in
6977s a long time either and this this is
6980s where monks would sell when there's so
6981s many monks uh in a final Circle just to
6984s cause that chaos to open up the
6986s opportunity to find those grabs now that
6988s said uh where this final circle is
6990s heading not very monk favored lots of
6992s terrain here with the uh different walls
6995s uh and the cliffs here so the monks are
6996s going to have to work really hard uh to
6999s convert those ultimates into those sort
7000s of double grabs to get those explosive
7002s kills uh we're used to seeing in the
7004s likes of uh season 1 and season 2 of
7008s naraka
7009s nvpl uh it does look say you know it
7012s works in their favor cuz typically you
7014s know me hater I will I will concede
7016s there's not actually that many Sanden
7018s teams in today in this first game it's a
7020s lot more Z so you actually have like
7023s less comps to shut you down so you know
7026s what the terrain might not be favored
7028s this is the one time I feel like the
7030s monks are actually going to be okay just
7031s because there's not too many sand
7033s siphons if you playing sand siphon you
7035s are getting maximum budget right now
7037s you're going to be very happy yourself
7039s wolves just having a bit of stiff around
7041s Haven really got like a safe spot for
7042s themselves so it's a lot of dodging and
7045s this is the one thing we do get whenever
7047s monks are in the games the buccaneer
7049s phase breaks out the Cannons come out
7051s everyone starts just wailing on each
7053s other from broadside uh next Buff is
7056s going to be another white
7058s tigers this might get very dicey right
7061s now it's actually Baler who already have
7063s a white tigers setting up in the area
7065s for it I think this might just decide
7068s the game this buff is going to be very
7071s explosive yeah this is going to be wild
7074s uh White Tiger twice coming in B already
7077s in position to secure it the question is
7079s they are going to go ahead and burn the
7080s old here youon uh is there a team that
7083s is going to be able to come in and
7084s contest this away from Team B it doesn't
7088s look like anybody's even planning on it
7090s B is going to find themselves in a very
7092s strong situation here they're going to
7093s get that monk old back online for free
7095s they're going to be able to go in and
7096s looks to cause maximum chaos here uh as
7100s they do head in with that white tigers
7102s even one double grab uh could set off an
7105s explosive Chain Reaction as we look over
7107s to team ug here that Aurora burst coming
7109s through uh trying to catch out members
7111s of Team jdg there as well as using it uh
7114s as a zoning tool for the team here of
7116s course SS there with that purple uh
7118s sword being able to throw that Aurora
7120s burst out we're going to see the whisp
7122s come through not going to find the
7123s connection that they were looking for SS
7125s just holding on to that Aurora burst
7127s continuing to buy them plenty of space
7130s as they just press away from the zone
7132s here and this is really nice it's almost
7134s like SS there for the team uh is just
7137s carving out areas of the zone as the
7140s Zone continues to push forward allowing
7141s for ug to maintain that space and sure
7144s enough B does get that white tiger Crow
7146s we're going to see them go Airborne here
7148s looking for a good monk setup and GG
7150s going to be on the receiving end of some
7151s of that pain already as B trying to find
7155s a huge end game Circle for themselves
7157s here with that white tiger prow GG is
7159s 330 on uan trying to find any bit of
7163s value they can out of this ultimate th
7165s far hasn't been able to connect on
7166s anybody is just going to go Airborne as
7168s they wait for it to De here as they now
7171s try to regroup with the rest of Team GG
7174s they are going to be able to find a
7175s reset they have just that little inch of
7177s space inside the house there b still
7180s holding on to that mon they've got this
7182s white tiger for another 68 seconds here
7184s they want this Zone to get much smaller
7186s before they invest that monk ultimate
7188s and they can find that big chain
7190s reaction that we were talking about that
7192s they have the potential to get with this
7194s white Tiger's prowess and with zone six
7195s collapsing in the next 14 seconds
7197s they're going to have a good 30 seconds
7200s uh to spend that ultimate and really
7202s look to find that setup that they need
7204s ug's SS over here though with the Aurora
7206s burst could spell disaster for them if
7208s they're able to catch out the monk there
7210s from Team bow with that Aurora burst
7212s they're going to be able to keep the
7213s monk from getting those slams out as
7214s that silence comes through and that
7216s could be a huge deciding factor in how
7219s this final Circle plays out Jake yeah
7221s it's it's about a need to capitalize
7223s though they are running out of time and
7225s they have zero kills at the bottom of
7227s the table this white tigers could be the
7229s difference making between them having an
7230s amazing day and a really bad day they've
7233s had two white tigers buff back to back
7235s as well and they haven't been able to
7236s translate that into anything wolves are
7238s just going to pester onto the members of
7241s bower forcing them low and with that the
7243s white tigers is all but done you're not
7245s going to get a kill in 5 seconds unless
7247s a total Miracle happens uran goes in for
7249s the transform Z also as well now it's
7252s just in for the grab time everyone's
7254s going to be dodging away they been able
7256s to catch fre free o that's a double grab
7258s for Bower Yan able to get the slam down
7260s and that's a kill GG lose a player
7263s that's a heavy loss for them to be
7265s suffering already revenge in the hands
7267s of Zen here as well as he's looking for
7269s the double grab isn't going to get it so
7270s just goes for the punch Kiki trying to
7272s break away from Zen Z's about to lose
7274s his transform and I think all of these
7276s monks are going to be D transforming
7277s soon that Aurora burst going to be able
7279s to do so much work as the circle gets
7281s smaller and smaller Hardy it's just a
7284s kiting clo up in the sky nobody wants to
7287s go down where the wolves are all just
7288s having a float about as now on the low
7290s ground with the monks de transform
7293s immediate burst of action breaking out
7295s you going incredibly low trying to
7297s finish up Zen but Zen's just too tanky
7299s massive bubble comes in ug just firing
7301s away as wolves can on their nice kill of
7304s this game and wolves have still got the
7306s pressure to keep this one going
7307s alliance's Revenge jumps in the Aurora B
7309s com out not going to really to too much
7313s right now SS just using it to hold
7316s ground for himself at the moment as
7318s yuran gets knocked into the zone and nhq
7322s able to to kill the kill with the bow 10
7324s for wolves but they've still got GG and
7326s Alliance hot on their tails but both of
7328s those teams are down players right now
7330s where wolves are at full fighting force
7333s you high up on The High Ground going
7335s very very low we do see a member of
7337s wolves actually getting taken out in the
7339s middle of all of this action the cannon
7340s fire from two tick actually doing a lot
7341s the king comes for the transform health
7343s bars are just exceptionally low across
7346s the board zenu is able to take down the
7348s member of wolves as well and wolves with
7350s just a one they've got their fer can she
7353s survive can they keep this game going
7356s for themselves the king looking for the
7358s grabs only been able to find one but
7360s he's finding himself just completely
7361s Stutter Steps up it's so hard to survive
7364s Kiki able to secure the kill ZK comes in
7367s with the AL the spear connects on to so
7370s many people he's got more Spears he's
7372s got more Health can he make it work it
7375s is anybody's game Aurora burst coming
7378s out zenu doing work Zen goes down ZK
7382s second man standing ug should take the
7386s game oh my goodness what a good game
7389s this was for ug like I said that Aurora
7392s burst really going to come in clutch for
7395s this team in the final moments and be a
7397s huge deciding factor bada Waits a little
7401s too long they're looking for that zone
7403s six to collapse so that they can find
7406s that huge explosive white tigers prowess
7409s they're looking to get that Chain
7411s Reaction rolling but they ow with only a
7414s couple of seconds left on that white
7416s tigers not a lot of time to be able to
7418s find that double grab that you're hoping
7420s for to set off that Big Chain Reaction
7422s and because of that you give ug the time
7424s you need to slide in get that Aurora
7426s burst off and as that circle gets
7428s smaller and smaller it becomes more and
7430s more difficult for those monks to do do
7432s anything as aora burst continues to
7435s knock the silence onto team after team
7438s because of that ug is able to find hits
7441s onto multiple players who just go down
7443s to the Zone convert those into
7445s eliminations off of the Aurora burst of
7447s course their vaa coming in and Landing
7449s some big Spears as well in the end
7451s keeping wolves last player uh from being
7454s able to find any extra eliminations off
7456s of their Spears and because of that ug
7459s is able to come out on the very top here
7461s with their 12 eliminations in first
7462s place finish this is going to convert to
7464s a huge game for them team wolves though
7466s an equally explosive game just very
7469s shortly behind them with 11 eliminations
7471s and a second place
7473s finish very nice fair and impartial
7476s breakdown I'm now going to come in with
7478s my T sense Bower it was actually
7480s criminal but you had back to back white
7482s tigers and you left the game with zero
7484s kills like oh my word that was actually
7490s just I I have a question to ask because
7494s I if I speak I get in much trouble let's
7496s bring it up right who won game number
7499s one this should be an easy one was it a
7501s wolves B GG C J L or d o u
7507s g if you weren't froing at the mouth at
7510s the double. white tigers prowess you
7512s might know the answer to this gun this
7515s is a pretty easy one ABC or D make sure
7517s you do check that whisper box because
7520s that is where the goodies will be given
7521s to you if you you do
7524s win I mean
7526s yeah the big impartiality there just
7529s just being the fact that b Waits too
7531s long right I I understand the mentality
7533s you get that white Tiger's prowess uh
7535s you're very much looking to be in that
7537s zone six so that you can actually get
7540s the smallest zone possible so that if
7542s you land that double grab you can set
7544s off that Chain Reaction the problem is
7545s you have zero eliminations uh as soon as
7548s that zone starts collapsing I think
7549s that's when you need to old right I they
7552s wait they wait for the zone to fully
7554s collapse before we see the monk
7555s transformation You've Got 5 Seconds to
7558s find a grab at that point you're not
7560s going to find a double grab in 5 seconds
7562s one two uh I think the chaos of the Zone
7565s actually shrinking gives you a better
7568s chance of actually finding those grabs
7571s and gives you more time with that white
7573s Tiger's prowess if you're able to find a
7575s single double grab off of that as zone
7577s six is collapsing you set off a massive
7582s Chain Reaction you instigate pure chaos
7585s and even if that's the only white tiger
7587s explosion you get is from that initial
7589s double grab you are still going to be in
7591s a huge position to profit from the chaos
7594s as a monk comp and unfortunately they
7596s leave with a single elimination I have
7598s one really big thing to say no one was
7601s contesting them they could have stoed it
7603s and then they would have had it later
7604s into the game that that was the big
7607s mistake battle made here but here we go
7609s the scoreboard for this game ug walking
7612s away with 19.6 points wolves with 13 GG
7616s with 9.5 alliance with nine relatively
7620s high scoring game until you get towards
7621s that bottom end of the table K who
7623s typically a pretty consistent team at
7625s the bottom having a really really rough
7627s go of
7629s it it's it's a valer MVP it's a v MVP oh
7634s my word I'm so happy it's a v MVP zenu
7638s seven kills 10,000 damage coming in I
7641s mean you do have 19,000 damage on the
7643s king and the King realistically deserves
7646s M the MVP yeah let's let's be for real
7649s not pely from a stats point of view and
7652s from like an actual play point of view
7654s the king is MVP like that guy am he off
7658s that he held off that 1v3 for an
7660s eternity while he let SS find that full
7663s reset and because of that he was able to
7665s ult up and then capitalize off of ss
7668s coming back into that fight and
7669s completely flip that fight on its head
7672s get ug back in the game and because of
7674s that ug comes out on top in this game
7677s with a massive 19.6 yeah already halfway
7681s to that match point and again wolves not
7684s a bad game either with that 13.5 on top
7686s of the 13 points they already have a
7688s very respectable
7690s 26.6 we're we're talking about W's
7692s strategy here being a team that's going
7695s to need to come in you need to be
7696s aggressive on these Firefly maps and you
7699s need to put up as many points as you can
7700s during these first three games if you're
7702s a team like team wolves ug playing a
7704s very similar strategy but they played a
7706s little bit slower right they really
7708s didn't open up until after that mid game
7710s where they start to find a a bunch of
7713s those eliminations for themselves but
7715s crucially ug is a team that knows how to
7718s be set up for a strong End Circle they
7721s are able to go out they're able to find
7723s the gear that they need they're able to
7724s find the soul Jades that they need in
7726s that Aurora burst that does so much work
7728s for them there uh in the end they also
7730s make it to the heal off with aalda in
7733s their composition as well and because of
7736s that ug turns this into an explosive
7739s game for themselves yeah absolutely
7741s really really impressive stuff from them
7745s so we just saw like Po
7748s Wolves at the beginning of this game it
7751s wasn't going their way and then they
7753s repeatedly were able to just find like
7754s Revenge kill after Revenge go like GG
7756s WIP them at secret tunnel they come back
7759s and finish them up then drg coming in
7761s third party fight and take away a bunch
7763s of kills and take them out and then
7765s wolves come back and then get DG in a
7767s different third party later it was a it
7770s really was a game of Revenge but zinu
7773s that Roar burst just so big there for ug
7777s you were very right it was the key
7779s decider and there it
7781s is I can sleep well valer
7786s MVP huge huge game from zenu here no wow
7790s they didn't have the a B by the way cuz
7792s they had nothing lose it was SS
7796s wow yeah SS with an aurora burst puts in
7799s a lot of work for this team I mean
7800s realistically all three players play
7802s exceptionally well zenu knew what his
7804s job was it was to get to heal off uh
7806s make the most out of those Vault Spears
7808s as he possibly could and to counter any
7810s other VA left in the lobby which is
7812s woles XM at that point he's able to turn
7814s around he catches him out in the spere
7816s and clutches it out because
7818s realistically they need that multiplier
7820s right for this to be the big explosive
7823s game that they need to really get that
7825s huge early Advantage they have to take
7827s those 13 kills put that multiplier on
7829s top of it without catching that spear in
7831s the end there without making it to heal
7833s off to the B that just doesn't happen so
7835s every single player from this team
7837s realistically does their job right you
7840s have the king clutching it out in the
7842s middle game in a literal 1v3 holding
7845s that team off for an eternity which sets
7848s them up to make it to the end game to
7849s find the success that they need you have
7851s SS who's able to get hold of that Aurora
7853s burst who's able to Zone every team off
7855s of it who's able to get the silences on
7857s those monks in those final moments to
7859s take control of the final Circle for
7861s them and then you have zenu again
7863s understanding what their job is knowing
7865s that they need to go to heal off and
7866s knowing that they specifically need to
7868s focus the other vdas out of the lobby so
7871s that they can secure that multiplier
7873s that they need all three of these
7874s players put on an exceptional show
7877s played an exceptional game and I think
7880s all three of them realistically deser ve
7882s the MVP here because without a single
7884s one of them there it just all goes Topsy
7887s Turvy for him yeah absolutely it's
7892s it's I just I'm excited for the next
7894s game now I think we saw so much life in
7897s in our top end of the table uh these
7899s guys are hungry for it and you know they
7902s they were I predicted at the beginning
7904s of the day that we would see the teams
7907s pick up more uh more kind of wild compes
7910s we get later into the day I especially
7912s didn't expect wolves to be pulling out
7914s something so wild at the beginning of
7915s the day I thought wolves would be a
7916s little bit more get as meta as possible
7919s and take over from there but they they
7922s actually evaded that uh and decided to
7924s go down the battle route so super
7926s interesting to see that these teams you
7929s know they are clearly practiced and
7931s ready for this they clearly came in with
7932s a very very outlined game plan you know
7935s we saw multiple teams locking in that
7936s Val so this is this is something that
7939s they were all thinking about for today's
7941s games and uh yeah obviously the the
7943s changes to the to the hero select and
7945s the fact that four finals we going to
7948s have it so you know if you're at the
7950s bottom of the table well if you're at
7952s the top of the table you're at the
7953s bottom of pick order it's really going
7955s to have a big effect on these teams and
7957s what they're going to be able to play
7958s going forwards and weirdly that game one
7961s because of the fact we saw a team
7962s prioritized that valer in the first
7964s selection we saw that like the karumi
7967s and none of the heroes got a increase in
7970s cost so I expected it to be nothing but
7972s Sans siphons or zons at the start they
7975s actually swapped it up and decided to go
7978s for the karumi uh well for the for the V
7980s meaning but we actually had more teams
7982s in the second phase able to pick up the
7985s the sandon team but they still didn't
7986s take it which is crazy I I really
7989s expected that to be a heavy heavy sand
7991s siphon game but barely anyone was
7993s actually on that teada it was all about
7995s the Val mon comp today and uh the Z as
7998s well yeah I mean it's it's been very
8000s interesting you know we talked at the
8002s very beginning of the day uh this is
8003s patch 10.17 coming in uh we have seen
8007s those kyin changes right that come in uh
8009s the the delay between those blades
8012s realistically opens up a lot of
8014s opportunities for teams to kind of
8016s retaliate back against that sort of comp
8018s whereas before he was able to dash so
8021s much faster also having some of that
8023s initial damage uh reduced off of the
8025s ultimate as well really gives teams that
8028s opportunity to sort of survive those
8030s fights out a lot longer
8032s uh you also see some of these comps
8033s bringing in the hottie taking the V1 so
8035s that they have the cube to be able to
8037s escape even if they do end up in a
8039s situation uh where the kyin is able to
8041s sort of take control of the chaos of
8043s those fights and I think because of that
8045s and the fact that we're seeing so much
8046s less of him you have these comps where
8048s we start to see uh some of these teams
8050s really kind of pushing more back towards
8053s that late game right you the all these
8055s teams that play that monk vda they're
8057s looking for those huge explosive moments
8059s in the finals area of the game just like
8063s ug did uh and because of that ug being
8067s able to play it out the way that they
8068s did were able to walk away with that
8070s game one wolves also able to keep the
8073s aggression going very early on because
8075s of the team comp that they pick but also
8077s having a good strong position into late
8079s game as well uh I think this is the most
8081s diverse field we've seen in trios in a
8084s very long time uh in terms of like teams
8087s at the different stages of the game
8088s where they Excel uh the ability for
8090s those teams to take fights while still
8092s being good in other stages of the game
8094s uh you know when we look way back uh at
8097s the older Jacobs right what you
8098s typically see is you have like uh two
8101s two kind of realities for teams is you
8104s have a good early to mid game comp and
8107s then you have a good mid game to late
8108s game comp uh if you're a mid to late
8110s game comp and you die in the early
8112s skirmishes you're just out of the lobby
8115s uh if you're a good early to mid game
8117s comp and you don't put any kills on the
8119s board early on you're just kind of out
8121s of the running that was kind of the
8123s reality it was very 50/50 for trios for
8126s a long time now with this we have Team
8129s comps they're kind of like yes they're
8131s better at different stages of the game
8133s but they're not particularly bad at any
8136s stage of the game and they're so varied
8139s uh that not one comp is just going to be
8141s able to dominate the lobby yeah I I
8144s really like I really I mean I've got to
8146s record Lots about this split but I I
8148s think as far as like The Meta for trios
8153s this is the best metal we've ever had
8156s um I'm also glad about like cuz I will
8159s admit even with that towards the end of
8161s supper I was starting to get a little
8162s bored I I was starting to feel like H
8164s these comps are getting quite stale now
8166s they were fun at first but blah but now
8170s like with the introduction of the valder
8172s and the return of the Monk and some of
8175s the changes were like obviously hardi
8177s being uh or sorry kylin been dropped
8181s down the priority as well is opened up
8184s room for more adaptation and more
8185s changes and again zly this this this
8190s meta has had like a burst of energy a
8192s burst of kind of like it just needed a
8193s bit of revitalizing and I think that's
8195s what we're starting to get with things
8196s being changed around a lot uh also
8199s interesting to see how like kind of
8200s priorities have been changing over the
8202s over the last few weeks as well curious
8205s to see if that kind of follows through
8207s because before it really was like s
8209s siphon was your s comp and and then like
8212s Zeon a few teams would rank it as s but
8215s most of them would kind of rank it as
8216s like high a and then you'd kind of like
8220s have have it kind of cascading from
8221s there but then towards the middle of the
8223s split and towards the end of the split
8224s we saw more and more teams actually say
8226s no actually Zon is just as good as sand
8227s siphon and they were kind of your both
8229s s+ picks uh very interesting to see how
8232s the teams have kind of like adapt and
8234s changed and now it's kind of zhon and
8236s zans siphon I think just comes down to
8238s preference of of the teams more than
8241s like and this one is better than this
8243s one yeah I mean absolutely the the hero
8247s Point rules have also really impacted
8250s the way these teams are going to be
8252s picking the compositions that they're
8254s playing today uh as we go forward and
8257s it's it's so good it's just absolutely
8259s refreshing from start to finish this is
8262s this is something the game has needed
8263s and we've slowly been working The Kinks
8266s out if you will uh of how the hero
8268s selection works for these teams and
8270s being being able to find viability in
8273s different Heroes to come in even when
8275s you're forced to play what might be
8277s considered lesser Heroes and stuff uh I
8279s think the balancing tweaks lately have
8280s been really really good uh we're trying
8282s to bring characters kind of back into
8284s range with everybody else while giving
8287s some characters who needed some love so
8288s much needed love like if you look at
8290s monk um the monk realistically just kind
8293s of needed a good support system that
8296s wasn't being ripped away in every other
8299s metac comp AKA you know the and the zip
8302s uh and your uon that were just finding
8304s so much more success in these other
8306s compositions kind of leaving the monk
8307s high and dry right cuz this is a hero
8309s that needs support one way or another to
8312s really be playable uh in these Trio
8315s scenarios but now you're finding the vaa
8317s coming back in uh which really gives you
8320s a clean opportunity to support that monk
8323s as well as make it to heal off have an
8326s alternate uh viable composition if you
8329s will for if something does happen to
8331s your monk in the end to still be able to
8332s find those point and here we go this is
8334s that crazy play we were talking about
8335s between UG and the members of X1 here
8339s where realistically 1 V2s and look at
8340s this uh this is before he swaps that
8342s Aurora burst over to uh SS uh for UG and
8346s he's using this Aurora burst to threaten
8349s this face get a clean carry here and
8351s just plays this so smart originally it's
8353s like the 1v2 and then we see all the
8355s members come in he's waiting for the
8357s opportune moment too right he's so close
8359s to that ultimate he just has to keep B
8361s this out looking for some damage so he
8362s can get into that Al he does get carried
8364s a little bit here down onto the jugle
8366s but all the work he's put in pays off
8368s here as he's able to O here there's
8370s coordination as well I'm sure he's
8372s talking with SS in that headset as SS
8375s finds that full reset is able to come
8377s back in SS comes in here with the huge
8378s damage the hotti uses the F there to
8380s actually mitigate the damage but look at
8382s what SS does he breaks away he doesn't
8384s cover for the monk here so that he can
8386s set up XL for a clean execution because
8389s of this uh X1 here doesn't really see
8392s the double grab potential coming in they
8394s take a ton of damage they're able to get
8396s the regrab here as well doing even more
8398s damage lyd does pop the ultimate but
8401s this right here keeps ug alive and in
8404s the game and it's all thanks to the king
8406s and that crazy 1v2 into 1v3 fight that
8410s allows SS to get the reset and come back
8413s in so they can set up that massive play
8415s off of the mon it was an unbelievable
8419s play from ug the king
8422s masterfully handled that and uh yeah it
8426s was it that RAR burst genuinely won them
8430s the game like it it got them that fight
8432s which could have just been devastating
8434s for them if they' lost it then in the
8436s end of the game the aora bus so much
8438s power as the zone closed really really
8441s impressive stuff coming in from ug
8443s wolves though see High Spirits coming
8445s out of that game one they still had a
8447s very good game sure they didn't get the
8448s win but they were one kill behind and um
8452s we're starting with the most points
8454s today say they're not too far behind
8456s they just need one good game and we've
8459s already got two teams half the way there
8461s to that match point so bunch of teams
8464s going to be looking to catch up and it's
8465s going to be a heated
8469s day yeah I mean it's going to be a very
8472s crazy day I expect these next two games
8473s to be even crazier right again we talk
8475s about the importance of these first
8477s three games today again you're on the
8479s Firefly Maps you have zero hero points
8482s for your first three games which mean
8484s you're kind of forced to play different
8486s Heroes for every single game uh you are
8488s also uh in an area where right now we
8491s sort of have three teams that are very
8493s explosive teams uh I like the analogy
8496s that you used earlier today the fact
8497s that these teams are sprinters they are
8499s not marathon runners uh they need to
8501s find that match point threshold as soon
8504s as possible before they run out of steam
8507s heading later into the day before they
8509s are pushed further and further down that
8511s hero Point selection uh where they are
8513s sitting at the top but they have no hero
8515s points to be able to capitalize on any
8518s sort of viable team comp making it
8520s harder and harder for them to
8521s realistically find that mvp that they're
8524s looking for so they can clutch out the
8525s championship I think that's the scary
8528s thing about it is you know wolves are
8531s very much like I said they're a sprinter
8533s team but because they're at the bottom
8536s of that that that hero select table it's
8538s very hard it's a lot harder for them to
8540s get the comps they want to
8541s getting so it's like you know you're a
8544s sprinter but you're also wearing Crocs
8547s so heavily handicaps going into these
8550s into these games off that so they
8552s they've really got a lot of work to do
8554s if they want to secure that win and
8556s obviously I believe the changes uh to
8559s the hero points and well not the hero
8561s points but to the order select being
8563s from the beginning of the day not
8564s halfway through the day is um
8568s compensated for the fact that it is five
8570s less points to hit that match point at
8573s the same time that still favors lower
8574s down teams like all of these changes I
8576s think
8577s allow for a more likely comeback a more
8580s probable comeback because you
8582s know those teams are obviously going to
8584s burn through points they're can have a
8585s harder time getting those those
8588s MVPs as you get later into the day but
8590s if you're at the top if you're at the
8591s bottom of end of table your first
8593s priority on everything getting to 65
8595s points is easier than getting to 70
8598s so that world is very much there is just
8601s having another look at a replay I'm
8603s assuming we're having a couple of
8604s technical issues that's why we are
8606s nothing to her us yet this is alliances
8609s fight versus K inside the real Yang and
8613s it's weird cuz we were so focused on the
8615s on the vowers but we didn't really get
8617s to see much of the Z action but I mean
8619s we've seen Z so much this play it's been
8622s so impactful had so much power the
8624s ability with the Matari and your
8626s ultimate to reset your F you get three
8629s FS really affects so much and that
8631s meteor does so much damage and the most
8634s important factor is the heal burn you
8636s know the the ability to kind of shut
8637s down these kumis and these
8641s Zips has a lot of value I was going to
8644s say we saw that in the earlier fight
8645s with Alliance right they were able to
8646s use that z uh as the enemy team kind of
8649s uh gathers up inside that Kumi ultimate
8651s they're able to catch all three with
8653s that burn tick damage uh effectively
8655s hitting them with that heel Tech uh
8657s reduction making that Kumi Al so much
8660s less impactful for the team and then off
8663s of that as they move towards the edge
8665s that same Z as the old ends is able to
8667s set up that charged lmb off of the staff
8670s and just collectively lock down two
8672s members because of how many hits come
8674s out on the staff and because of that uh
8677s they are very quickly able to capitalize
8679s and pick up both of those eliminations
8681s and then turn it to a 3v one so the the
8684s zick from Alliance very very strong uh
8686s they do put up uh a significant number
8688s of points in this game that first game
8690s as well well and now they're going to
8692s find themselves in that first round
8693s selection which is going to be huge for
8696s them this is going to be the opportunity
8698s that Alliance needs to really put some
8699s points up on the board yeah I need to
8701s correct myself I was wrong turns out the
8703s first three games when we had the Zero
8705s Hero points we are sticking to a
8707s rotating hero select and then from then
8709s on it will go into round order as a
8713s interesting to see but KLA put the
8715s priority on grabbing a um a blind dat
8718s comp fors while everyone else goes Sans
8720s siphon Sans Sion increased in points so
8722s no one's going to be able to pick it up
8723s in this rotation may just be a bunch of
8726s blind dates I mean obviously woles and
8728s stuff can't play the uh the valer right
8730s now or the monk or anything like
8732s that so I think blind a is probably the
8735s best go-to or you could go zon actually
8736s siphon is
8738s open yeah that that be do interesting JL
8741s now is their turn to take the valer we
8743s are heading to pedor on this map um I
8747s not got too much experience on how well
8749s monk does on pedor I feel like there's a
8750s lot of terrain so not great um only one
8755s siphon here from
8756s Wolves yeah I think it's a good
8759s selection for them here especially
8761s because they're going to be in that
8761s first round selection uh going into the
8763s third game so this is a strong pick for
8766s them and it leaves them open with lots
8768s of opportunities uh to play
8770s realistically anything going into game
8772s number three and again these three games
8773s really going to matter the most here
8775s given the Firefly given the fact that
8776s we're on those Zero Hero points uh these
8778s are the only games where wolves is going
8780s to see ation before they're just stuck
8782s in that bottom uh for the rest of the
8784s day uh love to see the the continuation
8787s of this monk hottie uh Justina comp
8790s coming out I enjoyed the heck out of it
8792s we're going to see some more of that zon
8794s coming here three teams ewg jdg drg
8796s going to be locking that in for our game
8799s three not as much diversity as we saw in
8802s game number one uh but still a really
8805s nice field of hero picks coming in here
8808s especially with this new composition
8810s with the vder monk yeah I will worry
8814s about the two monks in this game just
8815s due to the fact there's only two of them
8817s monk is always a Target When there's
8819s less of them in the map people don't
8820s want to be dealing with in the final
8821s Circle but also you know it's a scaling
8825s comp so it needs to get some gear before
8828s he can really pop off now obviously
8829s valer does kind of budge ify this comp a
8832s little bit because you know unlike a u
8834s she doesn't need to share that armor uh
8837s with the monk so all she really needs is
8838s a good weapon and then a r will give her
8841s enough Health to survive we are going to
8843s get ready into this game just see what
8845s everyone's load out is going to be being
8847s I don't think we're going to see
8848s anything
8850s um overly surprising here but it's going
8853s to be a big game especially with a lot
8855s of very aggressive comps getting locked
8856s in I would also be worried about the
8858s monks just cuz there's a whole lot of
8860s sand siphon in this lobby as well so
8862s there's a lot more ability to shut you
8864s down uh it makes your life this this
8867s comp really struggles into it especially
8869s with like things that the uh the Hardy
8871s as well makes his life hard turbulent
8874s winds and all that yeah I think this is
8877s I think for the most of the teams here
8879s the sand siphon is actually why we see
8881s uh so many of these teams actually move
8883s away from that monk composition of
8885s course you've got wbg and JL here they
8887s didn't play it last time but if you're
8889s going to be in the bottom end of uh
8892s composition picks going into the next
8894s phase I feel like you're kind of forced
8897s into playing a lesser comp this
8899s particular game game so that you still
8901s have points available uh especially
8903s given or sorry not points but you still
8905s have Heroes available to play uh given
8907s that these first three games are Zero
8909s Hero Point selection and you don't know
8911s what the other teams are going to bring
8912s to bear during those first two phases
8914s before you have to pick at the end here
8917s we're going to take a look this is going
8918s to be a very range drop here but very
8921s similar uh to our first drop there on
8923s Mor where it is two teams dropping on
8926s each other we're going to see a lot of
8928s these early fights it's going to be
8929s wolves and drg over here on our western
8932s side of the map we have two teams
8934s dropping the very middle on Imperial
8936s we're gonna have two teams out here as
8938s well it's going to be ewg versus ug X1
8942s uh notably sort of between these two
8944s teams here so if they're able to loot up
8946s uh they might find themselves having
8948s really good third party potential uh but
8950s they need to be careful uh if they don't
8952s find fireflies where they're spawning
8954s here uh before they pressure into one of
8957s these two fights that fight could be
8959s almost over and then the team that
8961s initially took that fight will actually
8963s have more rage than them so X1 needs to
8965s move quickly they need to secure
8967s fireflies and loot and find a good third
8969s party opportunity off of this drop well
8972s wolves immediately trying to pressure up
8974s onto drg NQ doing a lot of work there
8977s dashing through multiple people getting
8979s on w98 is isolated and I think wolves
8982s have been able to spot him out so
8983s they're going to keep the pressure up
8984s and this could just be a nice easy
8986s little pick for them going for the Run
8988s gets caught out by the grapple Zen with
8989s that sta going to continue to chase
8991s forward WX 98 needs to make a break away
8994s but Zen able to dodge away not going to
8996s get hit up for the moment KN is a bit of
8998s HP the F comes down I don't know if made
9000s any connection Kashi going low ZK also
9004s getting himself in a bit of danger here
9005s wolves suddenly again they just start on
9008s a rough fight the zip healing onto Zen
9010s it's going to do a bit of work for them
9012s but they need to make a break for it Ki
9014s is trying to go in there's going to be
9015s the STA for the kill can he secure no
9019s Kashi turn it around onto wolves two
9022s drops in a row do not go in wolves favor
9025s ZK now on his Lonesome versus
9028s w98 this ZIP is uh dunzo there you go
9033s what's crucial is we see wolves turn
9035s this around last game it's kind of their
9037s MO as well they don't let this get into
9039s their mentality it doesn't stop their
9041s aggression they know what they need to
9042s do after this it's go find a good place
9044s to loot up and head to that realm of
9046s Yang it's exactly what they do last game
9047s that's exactly what I expect them to do
9049s this game as we see drg here uh trying
9053s to find some more eliminations they
9055s actually find one there onto kll D drg
9059s with the four eliminations here K trying
9060s to break away 17 extremely low so he's
9063s going to try to split himself up here uh
9065s but the rest of KLA going to come back
9067s in it looks they are going to run it
9069s back with one of the members who died
9070s where they were able to get that
9071s Resurrection off screen but drg still
9075s just in a dominant position here into
9077s this fight able to avoid the Tesa
9078s ultimate uh cxz here taking a lot of
9081s damage is realistically one hit away
9083s from dying that fan R&B though going to
9085s come in strong onto the members of drg K
9087s qgg now separated gets a massive Parry
9090s but dun queing there with the ultimate
9092s able to stop the Parry punish onto WX 98
9095s it looks like drg going to come in
9097s they're going to secure seven
9098s eliminations off the bat here as well as
9101s get their member back in with all three
9104s Resurrection still available drg needs
9106s to very quickly look to find aggression
9109s onto another team
9110s as they still have 2 minutes before
9113s those resurrections are going to go away
9115s and drg could convert this into 10
9117s eliminations before zone two that' be
9120s absolutely massive for DG what a start
9123s for these guys and they were at the
9125s bottom end of that table and they just
9126s sh up into the middle they can continue
9129s this they could find themselves at the
9131s towards the top end of the table by the
9132s end of this game obviously a bunch of
9135s the teams are probably going to have
9136s something to say with that wolves GG OG
9139s been relative quiet J got three kills to
9142s them and they um they had a pretty rough
9145s start to that last game they got knocked
9147s out very early tried to double back on
9150s themselves and uh paid the price for it
9152s to try and get the cheeky reses off now
9156s uh one thing just going for a surf it's
9158s such a wide stance man it's such a wide
9161s stance when you're on the Mercury
9163s River I love it um yeah I I feel like a
9167s lot of these teams are going to be
9168s looking like you said to kind of just
9169s get some decent loot but together J have
9171s actually found GG so a little bit of a
9174s denial towards the top end of the table
9175s revives have just about worn off at this
9177s point so this is going to be a pretty
9180s fair and fair fair and square fight here
9183s lxm try and get himself dodged away here
9186s GG coming in with the fist weapons
9188s bubbles get popped they' still got that
9191s that uh ultimate lock down and GG they
9193s decid they don't want this fight getting
9195s a little bit too low JL putting the
9196s pressure up BBV though with the ultimate
9198s on still chasing onto the members of GG
9203s lxm just absolutely bolting for it as we
9205s see X1 and in a fight here big valer
9209s Viper stun is looking to walk down some
9211s of these members s s is going to get
9213s himself caught out by the charm are they
9215s going to come in and try and finish
9217s these kills up X1 already going very low
9219s though OG looking for that turnaround
9222s secure zdi with the bow as now they're
9224s actually just continuing to pressure
9225s onto X1 the revive comes in this could
9227s just be another kill for them is
9229s actually SS has to go for a bit of a
9231s reset only got the gray armor so he's a
9232s little bit low here only one last food
9235s range up available which he throws out
9237s onto the members of X1 I don't even know
9240s if they really made the clip off the
9241s back of that one Ban's breast coming out
9243s from X1 at this point and now ug may
9245s have to find them themselves on the
9247s Escape as X1 can just use this as an
9249s ability to aggress forward they have
9252s something behind them which they can
9253s safely jump back into to reset and ug
9257s two members of great health very very
9260s very low bar and they're just going to
9262s get absolutely mowed down here SS it's
9264s going to have to be a miracle from him
9267s X1 have already been able to secur that
9269s kill zenu going a little bit low here
9272s should be finished up momentarily throws
9275s down the charm does connect onto the
9278s king and the
9279s King last time he pulled off that 1 V3
9282s this time him and his team are
9284s eliminated yeah this is absolutely huge
9286s for X1 here and what realistically
9288s happens that we don't see here is you
9289s see on six eliminations uh they pick up
9292s three of those eliminations here from ug
9294s if you remember ug hot drops on another
9297s team I think X1 comes in before that
9299s fight starts uh catches one of them out
9302s and is able to take the clean 1 V one ug
9305s decides rather then take the risky third
9307s party they want to go loot up once they
9308s loot up they try to come back in onto X1
9312s but you have to think about it if you're
9313s X the X1 you've already taken fight
9316s you've had such an opportunity to build
9317s up that rage so they're very easily able
9320s B to take an early lead in the fight
9321s there with the ultimates they also have
9323s that escape ability there because they
9325s are playing blind date comp they're able
9327s to use that wuen to step away once the
9329s old start coming out and unfortunately
9331s for ug uh they those furin shoves are
9335s few and far between and there very
9337s little damage coming off of them as well
9339s because they have almost no gear
9341s underneath of them so many of them just
9343s on Whit and a very select few of Blues
9347s so that ultimate just not finding the
9349s power that it really need needs for them
9350s to take that fight uh it was a very
9353s unfavorable fight for ug to pressure
9355s into meanwhile wolves have done exactly
9358s what you said they should do they they
9359s do this they drop see if they can get
9361s the win on the drop if they do they're
9363s happy if not they'll just run off find a
9365s nice quiet spot on the map to loot up
9367s and then look for these R yangs and
9369s purple weapons blue armors across the
9371s board sure they'd like to get some
9372s purples but right now I think wolves are
9375s happy with this and as you can see
9377s they're heading south they're heading
9378s towards that R yang actually back
9380s towards GG uh so could see another
9384s rematch from that game number one
9386s between these two as wolves are getting
9388s into the position to secure themsel onto
9391s this ROM Yang that was spawning up
9393s momentarily as well actually 22 minutes
9396s so could get very heated around here gen
9399s G uh slam down a Ban's breath actually
9402s on
9403s themselves just to secure themselves
9406s priority onto this ROM Yang and I mean
9409s they got
9411s oh wow vulpine they got what it the uh
9414s vulpine Essence thank you vulpine
9416s Essence they got golden Soul Jad purple
9418s Soul these guys got so out the wo
9421s they're set up yeah I think they picked
9424s the perfect Target to put the vulpine
9425s essence too on the Z here two tick uh
9428s because if two tick you know goes down
9431s low they do have the healing coming in
9433s from the zipping you know you could put
9435s the extra vulpine on zipping but
9438s realistically you want it on your damage
9439s dealer who's going to be in the middle
9441s of the fight doing the thing cuz if you
9443s you get two tick separated if you think
9445s you're able to come out back on top of
9447s this fight cuz you're able to get the Z
9449s out and you're just kind of left with
9451s the Matari and the Healer and then all
9452s of a sudden two tick just gets an extra
9454s life bar uh you may have completely
9456s overextended yourself and end up losing
9459s that fight pretty easy and speaking of
9460s which it's going to be drg who's going
9462s to have to figure this out their target
9464s selection is going to have to be pretty
9466s good here uh they are going to look to
9468s eliminate Desai first kind to force that
9470s ultimate out but Z again with that
9472s vulpine Essence very smart decision from
9474s the side of jdg there it is the target
9476s selection coming in on the Z the Z
9478s trying to get back into the middle and
9480s keep things mixing up they haven't even
9481s burnt that ultimate yet as we do see the
9484s Matari coming in we're going to see a
9485s little bit of damage coming in ch ch
9486s going to find some more reset here
9488s unfortunately they're forced to end the
9489s pot the charged lmb coming out of the
9491s fan going to catch onto the other player
9492s doing some more damage some more flanks
9494s coming through huge damage off of the
9497s R&B the other team pops the ult there uh
9499s to keep the teammates alive here two
9501s tick and a really clean position here
9503s with the ultimate finding a lot of
9505s damage and again they have such a huge
9507s safety net here the vulpine essence
9508s there it is it's going to pop and now
9510s two tick gets to keep the ultimate going
9512s gets to keep the pressure up there it is
9514s on to drg's dong quing D Queen's going
9516s to go down this becomes a 3v2 very
9519s quickly two tick with a couple seconds
9520s left remaining on the ultimate going to
9522s be able to set this team up for Success
9524s jdg finds another and now it is a 3v one
9527s on the final remaining member of Dr G
9530s and this is exactly what I talked about
9532s before this that vulpine Essence being
9533s on two tick is going to be what saves
9536s this team if things turn sideways as the
9538s target acquisition is going to be on to
9541s the Z and because of that they've been
9543s able to turn this into a 3v1 Kakashi
9545s here trying to time it out with 42
9547s seconds I don't see it happening Jake
9549s there it is I think it's going to be a
9551s very very hard hold on that front as uh
9554s going to be secured wolves lost to
9556s Alliance as well inside their R Yang b a
9559s lost this
9561s the jdg technically still going but
9565s probably popping up any second now
9567s liance with that Vilan bird M it's been
9569s a rough start to this game for wolves
9570s here Alliance able to secure this kill
9573s but I mean allance have been on fire
9574s this year so no surprises to see them
9577s popping off like that so we do see ewg
9579s taking a fight versus X1 Z trying to see
9582s if he can find the opening on to the
9584s members wwg cookie get the war
9588s momentarily but was constantly looking
9590s for a scale rush but he just couldn't
9592s really make the connection so instead
9594s going to look for a lock down and secure
9595s the kill there it is with the PO sword
9598s picked up on that one refresh as well as
9600s now cookie could just be the next Target
9602s what a Parry from cookie zdi has to
9605s switch back out to P sword looking for a
9607s scale Rush onto cookie but cookie
9609s catches him with the chain S making his
9612s life very hard X1 are ultimately still
9615s able to win that fight but got a little
9617s bit dicey in some areas there
9621s here we go we're going to come back to
9622s the rest of this fight here wait there's
9625s no way Kakashi wins this 1v3 into jdg
9628s right that would be the hypest thing
9631s ever I I think he's doing it with the
9633s Matari withi as well it's not even like
9635s he's like a a true nobody nobody going
9639s for the resurrection here 19 seconds
9640s left remaining I think it's more likely
9642s that he's just able to to bait this out
9644s and take it to time oh there CEO the
9647s Parry coming in huge for him no no way
9651s does it what in what world does jdg let
9655s that happen oh my stars that was
9659s absolutely beautiful now JL getting
9662s himself in a fight here versus The
9663s Alliance remember allance and JL both
9665s have that bird SM so it's just a trade
9667s of points really more than anything they
9669s are going to look to try and get that
9670s pick on to ny7 he got grabbed twice and
9673s finally will go down but Bower also
9676s joining into the frey JL find himself a
9678s little bit exposed here gra coming in
9680s Peak gets himself CAU out gets slammed
9682s down but one thing losing the monks a
9685s lot of Health to follow Fen shelf coming
9687s in just to lock him down jdg able to
9689s secure the kill as it is just a absolute
9692s fluster of action everyone closing in
9696s Tok has that ultimate waiting for the
9698s prime opportunity to pop it there's
9700s going to be the ultimate burnt down
9702s chain just absolutely liquefying health
9705s bars in front of him purple chain SI
9707s just going to do so much damage at this
9709s point
9710s as U is going to be next up on the menu
9713s here for jdg as they just putting some
9716s kills on the board the bottom end of the
9718s table are really popping off in this
9720s game this is their opportunity to climb
9722s back and close that gap between them and
9724s the top and the Front
9726s Runners looks like jdg going to make a
9729s break for it those five kills they're
9730s going to be happy off the back of that
9732s one Bower thre down a youran thre down a
9735s whis but it's not really going to do too
9737s much wbg get their first kill of the
9740s game as well and other than JL you know
9744s it's drg jdg having relatively decent
9747s games actually X1 as well nine
9750s points there's a lot of B scoring teams
9752s here I still can't believe jdg lets drg
9755s get away with that 1v3 inside realm of
9758s Yang uh absolutely cooked uh for jdg
9763s there there's just no way you allow that
9765s happen yeah W's not in a good position
9767s right now they did not win that realm of
9768s Yang that they took
9770s and because of their they're on the back
9772s foot right now yeah 40 seconds you can
9774s see it looks like uh I think one of
9776s their members has the G depletion
9777s cleared so they've dropped the money off
9779s for them so that they can potentially
9781s buy them back uh right now you see
9783s they're taking this fight pretty
9784s aggressively here trying to see if they
9786s can get some soul blooms for themselves
9788s but if they go down here their teammate
9789s having the money to be able to buy them
9791s back they've got 15,000 so they can at
9793s least get one of them back into the game
9795s uh this is going to be the opportunity
9796s they need to stay alive uh unfortunately
9799s Ely uh they aren't going to get the
9801s opportunity to continue that fight there
9803s so what's going to happen is wolves
9804s needs to break away they're going to
9805s head into the Zone here so that their
9807s loot is safe uh from some of these other
9810s teams as they look to have their
9811s teammate uh buy them back into this game
9814s essentially wolves uh not off to the
9816s greatest start this particular game
9818s Unfortunately they really needed to make
9820s something happen uh inside that realm of
9822s Yang uh for the strategy from game one
9825s to continue work for them here in game
9826s two uh and they did not I'm not quite
9829s sure we catch the replay on who wolves
9832s fought inside that Roman was Alliance
9834s was it Alliance okay so Alliance really
9836s setting them pretty far uh behind
9839s because of that now they're able to get
9841s at least one member back in as we get
9842s over the members of ug trading blows
9845s here with jdg and jdg in a very similar
9848s position that wolves is they were able
9850s to uh get some of the Soul blooms back
9852s in but I mean theyve got to be feeling
9855s the mental anguish after losing a 1v3
9858s inside realm of Yang like
9860s you have just it it plays on the mental
9862s right you you lose to a single member of
9864s another team after you completely set
9866s that up you win not only did they lose
9868s the 1v3 they lost 1v3 uh after winning
9872s the fight with vulpine Essence so it's
9876s just got to be so demoralizing for them
9878s right now and you can see it in the way
9879s that they're playing it's going to be JL
9881s versus Alliance uh in our second realm
9884s of
9885s Yang well I see how J handle himself
9888s here Lions able to beat out out wolves
9890s in that previous
9892s one is just a bit of waiting game here
9894s for the one F does have OB that
9896s transformation going to be the valer
9898s monk comp going
9901s up right now as we can see the L's
9903s trying to make a break away for it the
9904s sandstorm breaks out and this is the
9906s thing that's going to shut down one
9907s thing but he still transforms in the
9909s middle of it you can already see txj has
9911s fallen to Yuma the burst from Alliance
9913s is huge launches through the sandstorm
9916s can't find the grab obviously cuz the
9918s sandstorm wall is going to stop him and
9920s actually look like Revenge was able to
9921s break away from this one Yuma finds
9923s himself grabbed out midair though
9925s they're going to put so much damage in
9926s onto him but he's able to survive for
9928s now caught out by the spear and now
9931s another regrab comes in gets a bunch of
9934s burst off onto Yuma Yuma with the third
9936s grab one thing doesn't Miss Yuma able to
9939s break away this time Revenge keeps him
9941s alive keeps him going looking for the F
9944s Ren sh one F gets the knock back on
9946s count Parry onto my7 my7 holding fast
9949s for the moment it's just looking to
9951s break away Bell goes for the pop one
9953s thing he's he's weaponless he's just
9955s going for punches and boxes switches
9958s back out to the sword I think something
9959s was a bit of a visual bug there is they
9961s just to put pressure that's actually a
9964s strategy believe it or not so uh teada
9966s teada F1 that typically stops the blue
9969s from coming through can't stop the slap
9971s because you have no weapon for him to
9973s grab so he doesn't get the flip on you
9975s uh whatsoever so you actually see the
9977s monk swap over to slap just to avoid the
9980s F1 so that you can still maintain
9983s priority uh when you're trying to trade
9985s for control of
9986s neutral that is very impressive there
9989s you go you learned something new in
9991s Alliance learn that they can beat anyone
9993s they're able to secure themselves
9994s another Victory inside the Romo Yang Dr
9997s a storm onto them and that's six kills
9999s onto Alliance JL our Front Runners on
10001s points other than drg now have to go
10005s findel three more kills to kills
10009s cleans otherwise this game could just be
10011s dunzo for them and they were knocked out
10013s early last game as well not as many
10015s points put together but realistically
10018s they want to get as many points as
10019s possible a good game here could put them
10022s very close to match
10025s point is jail just looking at their
10028s perspective here versus uh oh no this is
10031s them versus
10033s Bower yeah this was the other R of Yang
10035s fight we didn't see one bang yeah um
10038s trying to break away unfortunately for
10041s one bang he's just really low here B
10043s going to pop the ultimate as well bang
10045s forced into going ahead and using this
10047s we're going to see the sand wall come up
10049s immediately but they're kind of forced
10050s to break away from this because the
10052s presence of one bang they can't really
10053s stand at the Kumi ultimate Kumi needs to
10054s find a chance to move it there it is
10056s they will move the ult but before the
10058s big heel can get through that slam going
10060s to come through and actually knock a
10061s member out there from Team bada which
10063s sets up one bang and JL to be in
10066s aggressive control of this there we go
10069s another slam coming through after the
10070s spear lands from the side there about IU
10073s just in the hands here going to get re-
10075s slammed up on the top side with the to
10077s shoves available here there we go the
10079s furin shove going to come out but b u in
10082s a 1v3 scenario and I don't think B is
10084s going to make the same mistake that jdg
10086s did allowing you to walk away with the
10089s 1v3 and surely they do not as we cut
10091s back to JL here uh who did lose their
10094s second realm of Yang uh and are now
10096s going to be coming out with that Yang
10097s depletion and are going to need to find
10099s some eliminations need to find some soul
10100s blooms to keep their game going and they
10103s definitely want to do that given that
10104s they have 10 eliminations under the Bel
10106s already
10108s Jake yeah they got uh they got a lot of
10110s work to do
10111s here three more points I mean they would
10114s they' be aiming for more than the 10
10116s kills anyway so they just got a timer on
10118s it this time that's the way to think
10120s about it wbg are going to cross their
10122s path here and I believe they're going to
10123s see them AAL they see him hiding yeah
10127s there he is one thing spotting him out
10131s wait for an opportunity to get in onto
10132s the members of wbg remember this is an
10135s very important kill here for the side of
10136s JL one thing Scout it out and uh oh
10140s that's why o
10142s jumping TJX he's popped the ultimat they
10145s have to just go for the turnaround and
10147s wbg given Elite on life as JL continue
10150s to put some pressure up onto zenu zenu
10153s go Force low the Kumi ultimate has to
10155s come out one F's going to transform as
10158s SS should be be that Target here for one
10160s f as he jumps into a tree looking for
10162s the grab able to catch on to zenu is
10165s just going to get the slam down onto him
10167s zinu gets caught out inside the
10168s whirlpool another slam comes in onto
10172s him catching zenu out once again losing
10174s a lot of HP SS this time eats the spear
10178s whole heap damage coming in SS goes down
10180s OG lose a player and JL going to be very
10183s happy with that one they needed these
10185s kills oh not done fighting yet Alliance
10188s actually just free firing onto them
10190s they've been able to cleanse one player
10192s but Alliance are just coming in to make
10193s sure that their day is done if Alliance
10196s get these kills this gives them a good
10197s shot of winning this game so this is a
10199s desperation play it's going to work out
10202s Alliance yum takes down one Fang the
10204s king going incredibly low can he do it
10207s again no OG eliminated from the lobby JL
10211s could be close behind them Alliance
10213s could have just opened the doors for a
10215s potential turnaround here for themselves
10217s absolutely huge
10219s they're looking for the Spears in K kg
10221s is able to take down
10224s vvv and just like that JL only have txj
10229s but Revenge has found him quick kite
10232s away but revenge is going to keep that
10233s pressure up onto him txj going low WS go
10237s down to wbg in the middle of that X1
10239s secure that final kill on to jl's txj
10243s and suddenly X1 the highest ranked team
10246s in the lobby we lose three in just quick
10250s succession yeah absolutely crazy how
10253s quick some of these teams can go down
10255s the aggression coming out from Alliance
10257s onto JL setting up a domino effect where
10260s multiple of these teams just crumble
10263s going into the late game here drg man
10266s the Cinderella story here I can't
10267s believe you know just last pre-finals or
10269s our last cast together Jake we were
10271s talking about one of the very few uh 1
10274s v3s we've ever seen in competitive play
10277s and then we come into today and in game
10280s number one we see a massive 2v3 play out
10283s and then here we see the literal uh 1v3
10286s between a member of uh drg and the
10289s members of jdg and they actually clutch
10291s it out and come on top Kakashi being the
10293s player who makes things happen there for
10296s drg so it's almost like it was meant to
10299s happen given what we were talking about
10301s last week Jake I know it it feels like
10303s we're a little blessed today getting you
10305s know my favorite character in the game
10308s uh going
10309s up and then a 1 V3 some really really
10314s impressive stuff so far
10315s and I think I I think like there's a
10318s world where I don't know if we go all
10321s the way to eight today but I think we go
10323s later than normal and my reasoning for
10325s that is with the F the bottom end of the
10327s pack are actually starting to score a
10328s little bit here I think we'll see a
10331s bunch of teams qualify all around the
10333s same time but slightly delayed from
10334s normal to that 65 points and then we'll
10337s have a bunch of teams contesting and
10338s then whoever gets MVP is going to be the
10340s winner there so I think we could be
10343s looking at probably a 5 to six game
10346s day I'd like it to go more cuz I'd like
10349s to see more nraa cuz you know we've not
10352s got much left before we go over to Jak
10354s cup
10357s so yeah I me but you know also I I I
10361s love me an explosive ending like if you
10363s can win in four games I'm never going to
10365s not be happy about that like the height
10367s of the moment like wolves pop in the
10370s lobby and taking that game for was so
10373s exciting yes it's a little sad that we
10375s had to end the show earlier but it is
10377s always super exciting when it happens
10380s yeah and I mean you you have to put in
10381s so work so much work to make that happen
10383s especially like when you're so far ahead
10386s and it's very easy to be able like when
10388s you're one or maybe two teams that are
10390s qualified over that match threshold it's
10392s very easy to sort of grief those teams
10395s out of the lobby so you keep your chance
10397s of winning alive so for to do that they
10399s absolutely uh earned that earlier in our
10403s bi-weeks for the summer split here so
10405s you can't really be mad about it
10407s whatsoever yeah we always enjoy getting
10408s more nraa but when a team comes in and
10411s absolutely puts in the work uh I think
10413s they deserve to end it in four games but
10415s today absolutely blessed games already
10418s our first three games promis to be crazy
10420s and they certainly have game one
10422s probably one of the most diverse Fields
10424s we've ever seen in terms of Team
10426s compositions coming out here for trios
10428s we also get that massive 2v3 uh that
10431s comes in from the member of ug the king
10434s there holding on for dear life and
10436s securing them the MVP for game number
10438s one now here in game number two we got
10440s to see a legitimate 1v3 coming in from
10444s drg's Kakashi onto team jdg it has just
10448s been one crazy thing after the next as
10450s we come over and sure enough the spirit
10452s will going to be coming in and a lot of
10454s these teams wanting to contest this
10456s Spirit well with the white tigers coming
10458s through and it's Alliance right now who
10460s has set themselves up in a really strong
10462s position Alliance already with one set
10464s of legendary armor for themselves we've
10466s got the teada old invested here and on
10469s that purple status going to be able to
10470s use those shoves there it is the teol
10472s coming through as well this is going to
10474s buy them this Spirit Well very quickly
10477s and it's going to allow them to get the
10478s resets on their ultimate as well Yuma
10479s going to take up another set of
10481s legendary armor for the team here some
10483s much needed Soul Jades coming through
10485s alliance with those seven eliminations
10487s setting themselves up for a very strong
10489s End Circle here on that uh classic sand
10492s siphon I'm actually amazed that they
10494s didn't get the karumi the armor um just
10498s to keep your kind of like your support
10499s unit alive as long as possible but I
10501s guess Yuma more likely to be getting
10503s involved into the action did take a bit
10505s of heat there but he's going to just uh
10508s quickly reforge their weapon I think the
10511s change in in that idea right is like
10513s yeah you want to keep the Kumi alive as
10514s long as possible but it is the Kumi who
10516s has the ability to tether and heal
10518s themselves she also is theer who gets to
10521s make the decision about when the
10522s ultimate comes out to provide that extra
10524s healing so if karumi gets low she has a
10527s little bit more of a safety net compared
10529s to the other players who have to find
10531s their way to karumi if they're being
10533s separated by another team it's nice to
10536s see Alliance doing what uh I think it
10539s was D no Bower couldn't do yet last game
10543s get that white tigers and they
10545s immediately pull the trigger start
10546s trying to just pick up some kills pick
10549s up the match and even if they can't
10550s translate it into something yet it's
10553s just applying that pressure causing the
10555s chaos and not let the teams kind of sit
10557s still feels very good Li's actually
10560s having a dreadful whale as well which is
10561s going to be very powerful in that final
10563s Circle we seeing Dreadful whales really
10565s pop off there allance actually jump into
10567s drg's pocket donkey 9 has to quickly get
10570s the zip healing coming in allance got a
10572s little bit low but they got the karumi
10574s they got the heal back up and Donkey n
10576s just going to disengage Alliance
10577s continue to hold this high but wx8 to
10580s just throw a few cannon shots in and see
10582s if they can get some poke off onto the
10584s alliance members GG holding the high
10586s ground though the highest of
10588s ground don't think anyone's really
10590s looking to contest them down up there at
10592s the moment this just below
10594s K have W to hide behind but it keeps him
10597s away from alliance's raft
10599s but also makes it harder to kind of keep
10602s tabs on what everything is going
10605s on yeah this is a very very interesting
10608s end CLE here there's so many different
10610s layers for these players to separate on
10612s around this Tower as well as that Cliff
10615s side keeping many of these players away
10617s and then you also have that area down
10619s below where you see the likes of X1 and
10621s drg kind of in this little canyon this
10624s is going to come down to the very end
10625s here and I actually think this is going
10626s to be very strong for team Alliance if
10628s they're able to hold those fing shelves
10630s alive here speaking of which their team
10631s here Yuma using that dagger Soul J to
10634s cover for while they're actually held
10636s out there inside that Tesla ultimate in
10637s Alliance able to hold this High Ground
10639s for as long as possible while still
10640s finding lots of resets for themselves
10643s once this comes down to the bottom if
10644s Alliance can come in they can pop that t
10646s ultimate and shove some of these teams
10648s outside this final Zone in the next 50
10651s seconds they're going to find themselves
10652s in such a strong position but look up
10654s here klaa on a branch with an even
10658s higher ground GG's lxm coming in they
10660s decide they want to evict Alliance now
10662s they know what the problem is but maybe
10665s a little bit of a miscommunication here
10667s uh as GG's Chen actually sucks away the
10671s Viper from that top side there with
10672s their teleport before they get the
10674s opportunity to get it off onto team
10676s allian this is going to cause quite a
10677s bit of chaos now as all these teams down
10679s on the bottom start to eat some of those
10681s stuns coming in drg KLA going to be
10683s coming in here it is we're going to see
10685s the huge nuclear device being set off on
10687s the members of X1 as K starts to pick up
10690s some more eliminations alliance's N7
10692s will find some as well wbg Walker trying
10695s to find grabs here and this is such a
10698s very tough spot for Walker considered
10701s one of the best monks in the league for
10702s the longest time to try to set up for
10704s some of these grabs because of how much
10706s terrain there is look at this the very
10708s tip top Walker goes skyborn is flying
10711s with the monk it's still not able to
10713s find the grabs that they're looking for
10714s to close this out and unfortunately for
10717s Alliance here this Zone actually closing
10720s on the side of this mountain making it
10723s very very difficult for them to use
10724s those F to find the value they want here
10727s they need to get down down below knock
10729s some of these players from on high above
10731s them that tree Ranch actually keeping
10732s Alliance from being able to find all of
10734s the extra eliminations they want here
10736s but they do go to 10 right now still in
10738s a very strong spot ny7 there it is going
10740s to pop the F in start shoving all of
10742s these players in zone drg going to lose
10744s two three members coming in they're
10746s going to find multiple of those Soul
10748s blooms to keep the game alive here the
10750s fan going to come in the fing going to
10751s get the recovery here Alliance goes to
10753s 13 Alliance goes to 14 they don't find
10757s the first place but they will find the
10759s MVP for game number two yeah that final
10762s Val of spear sinking the uh sinking the
10765s nail into the coffin but aliance still
10767s secure themselves that victory in game
10770s number two they're going to be feeling
10772s very happy with themselves off the back
10773s of that
10774s one especially when last game they
10777s didn't really have the impact they
10778s wanted
10779s to lot of the other Front Runners are
10782s able to put some serious points on the
10783s board and they turn around and say ah
10784s we'll do better we'll do better in game
10786s two don't worry and they did they really
10788s popped off there drg also have an
10791s amazing game ug will off to such a good
10794s start and then they get eliminated as
10797s well it was uh honestly it was more to
10801s be fair ignoring the OG point it was
10804s more actually the the bottom end of the
10805s table or the mid end of the table
10807s scoring this one from the top like
10809s wolves they got something you know but
10812s they all got knocked out ug wolves and
10815s JL all got knocked out in literally back
10818s up back to back like they just they
10820s just got press it out a bit too quick
10823s and uh paid the price for
10826s it as our teams strive ever closer
10828s towards that 65 point Match Point
10831s threshold which is all they need to do
10834s once they've done that they've got
10835s themselves secured in for a
10838s position to take the day and end it but
10841s I I I I do stand by my point I think
10843s we're going to have quite a lot of teams
10844s qualifying at the same time into that 65
10847s points just from how these games have
10849s been going cuz it hasn't really been
10851s like one team consistently popping off
10853s it's been like a series of teams popping
10855s off each game and the pop off team also
10858s hasn't taken uh first place they haven't
10861s had that like big multiplier which is
10863s your jump ahead of everyone else which
10865s kind nice thing for you ug did in game
10868s one they did get their multiplier for
10870s game one Alli doesn't here in this game
10872s they weren't highest in points I don't
10873s think they were like in kills sorry it's
10876s not like the kill lead they they they
10879s had they had 13
10880s kills they they they crushed game number
10883s one um but we got a question for you
10885s guys uh which player use karumi in game
10888s number two is it a wolves ZK B GG's lxm
10892s C Jail's vbv or D O's the king make sure
10896s you lock your answers in for a chance to
10897s win one of those summer split random
10900s gifts is I do believe this is going to
10901s be your last opportunity today is your
10903s last chance to get one of the Summers
10905s split random gift boxes and you don't
10907s want to miss out on it ladies and
10909s gentlemen but no uh back to ug they had
10911s 13 eliminations and a first place finish
10913s uh wolves was just barely behind them
10915s with 11 eliminations in second place
10918s finish it was pretty close it was pretty
10920s close but Lions walk away with 15 kills
10922s off this one don't get that big
10924s multiplier but they do get walk away 17
10927s points JL 14 even with JL getting
10929s knocked out early they still get 14
10931s points drg 13.5 X1 13
10935s wbg 10
10938s points to K honestly this is a high
10941s scoring game like a lot of people got a
10943s lot of points unless vwg in which case
10946s uh they had a donut they got a donut
10948s wolves though who've been consistently
10950s good unfortunately let's hope they've
10952s not run out of stamina by game two cuz
10954s that would not be a good sign for them
10955s only 2.5 points over to the side of
10959s their
10961s um over to side of their game so Bull's
10963s definitely got a lot of work to do but I
10966s mean that's a big game from ny7 he did a
10968s lot on that
10970s teada yeah I mean absolutely crushing it
10973s here on the teada especially in the
10974s final Circle uh he was able to find
10976s multiple extra eliminations get a ton of
10978s those FNS uh onto bodies for the team
10981s and this is an MVP welld deserved uh by
10984s team Alliance here uh and again we're
10987s talking about a team you know we talked
10988s about earlier being probably one of the
10990s most improved teams this year uh in
10994s terms of the way that they've been
10995s playing and this game goes to show
10997s exactly why this is they are a team that
11000s realistically in the past struggled to
11002s find their way to late game even if they
11003s had a good early game that is no longer
11006s the case this team is almost always in
11008s the final Circle and looking to make
11010s something happen and there it is they go
11012s all the way into first place right now
11013s with a
11014s 36.3 ug JL and wolves not too far behind
11018s at 34.1 31.8 and a
11021s 29.1 respectively two teams at 28 as
11024s well uh like you said this is very
11027s quickly shaped up to be a day where
11029s multiple teams are going to cross that
11031s threshold all at once probably uh I'm
11034s I'm going to take a shot in the dark
11035s here and say after game number four
11037s we're going to see three to four teams
11039s uh surpass that uh 65 point threshold
11043s and game five get to be absolutely crazy
11047s what we saw wolves do was they qualified
11049s by the end of game for free during the
11051s beginning of the split um and that was
11054s 70 points as well so another five points
11057s of what we're doing now but this time
11059s because everyone is scoring relatively
11061s high that slows down the odds of someone
11062s winning in game four incredibly low they
11066s would have to pop off unbelievably hard
11068s in the next game and then win game four
11071s to be able to do that so yeah I think by
11073s the end of game four we should have
11075s probably three teams I reckon on 65
11078s points if everyone continues to score
11080s like they have which has been you know
11082s high but evenly spread High between the
11085s top ends of the t uh tables so
11089s it's it's going to be an exciting game
11090s the next one next game you know a lot on
11093s the line here for these teams look at
11095s this by the way this this is the 1 V3
11097s here by just insane go so low and
11101s against the odds still comes out on top
11103s they just needed to find a single hit on
11105s him there as we go back here this is
11106s where Alliance absolutely just dumpsters
11109s that realm of Yang there's just no
11110s question that they come out on top there
11113s here in the end yet again N7 here by the
11115s way look at this N7 constantly fighting
11117s the souls to be able to get this ult
11119s back online and again he's going to
11120s throw a bunch of people out here comes
11121s over gets the soul blooms gets the
11123s healing keeps the ult online just a
11124s little bit longer gets another F shove
11126s out even though he gets buried here axo
11128s will come in and cleans up that
11130s elimination on him the end but it just
11132s doesn't matter as Alliance is cleaned up
11134s so much and a very well MV earned MVP
11137s coming in here for alliance's taada from
11140s this game nine eliminations I do believe
11143s and just a very very explosive game
11146s 16,000 damage NY 7's fourth MVP of the
11150s Season yeah A really lovely play there
11153s from ny7 10,000 healing as well quite a
11156s lot of healing uh group heel that'll be
11159s it there you go had a group peel on
11161s himself so that explains a lot of that
11163s one 13,000 damage with a fan and yeah
11166s Alliance these guys have just been
11168s consistently good this split like they
11171s are this year in general like they they
11173s they've been a team who we always saw
11175s those glimmers of light from uh and like
11178s we saw a lot of Hope from this team and
11180s then it never really transitioned into
11183s much and then recently this year it's
11185s just like I don't really know what's
11187s changed behind the scenes but these guys
11188s have really got their stuff together and
11190s they look amazing they're they're really
11192s really good team I'm I'm excited to see
11194s more from them I mean I'd be surprised
11196s if they don't make it to Worlds um I
11199s mean if they win today they guaranteed
11201s the spot but you know i' be surprised if
11203s they don't make it the world I'm going
11204s to be very excited to see what they can
11205s perform and what they do at Worlds
11207s anyway we are going to throw ourselves
11209s to a quick break and then we back we'll
11210s back with game number three so we'll see
11212s you in a moment
11215s [Music]

11452s [Music]
11469s hello everybody and welcome back to the
11472s mvpl we're getting ready to go into our
11474s third game of this series we're all a
11476s bit refreshed and ready to go the
11478s players are too uh listen the last game
11480s with Zero Hero points and then we shift
11482s off into the normal nine hero points but
11487s from this point after this game uh we
11489s will be playing in match order so sorry
11492s in ranking order so if you're at the top
11494s of the table you're at the bottom of the
11495s priority for hero select so this is this
11498s is the chance teams like wolves right
11499s now this is their game where they get
11502s first pick so I'm expecting SanSai from
11504s from them I'm expecting mad aggression
11506s from them that is the game plan right
11508s now for these teams cuz it is a lot of
11511s teams are scoring very high right now
11513s right R yeah absolutely and yeah I want
11516s to reiterate exactly what you said about
11517s wolves right wolves uh they tried to
11520s recreate the strategy from game one
11522s unfortunately because of them losing
11524s that realm of Yang I mean they do really
11526s good right they they hot Drop they take
11528s a fight it's unfortunate they kind of
11530s run into a Zai uh which is really bad
11534s for them early on because of the heal
11535s cut from that ultimate they end up
11537s losing that engagement but the same
11539s thing happens to them in game number one
11541s and they're very quickly able to rep
11543s prioritize move to where the loot is
11544s loot up uh and head into a very
11547s successful realm of Yang for themselves
11549s uh they try to do the same thing here in
11550s game number two they very quickly rep
11552s prioritize respawn get very looted up uh
11555s they had one set of purple armor purple
11557s weapons across the board were doing
11558s fairly well go into that realm of Yang
11561s and things just do not go well for them
11563s in the realm of Yang they come out they
11565s try to find uh a a clean third party to
11569s go into they actually have the money to
11571s buy some resurrections back they
11573s pressure into a fight and that other
11574s team actually use as a wuen port to get
11577s away and because of how much time that
11579s they have left on that Yang depletion
11582s they just simply don't have the option
11583s to run it back around and re-engage on
11586s that fight what they have to prioritize
11588s is getting one of their team members
11589s back up and then trying to find the dark
11591s tide coins to get the second they are
11593s able to get everybody back up into the
11595s lobby but because they spend so much
11596s time doing that they fall behind in
11598s scaling they fall behind in position and
11601s they just aren't able to find their
11603s footing back again it's a it's a really
11605s struggle position for them to be and
11607s because of that they're still sitting
11609s pretty towards the top end of the
11611s leaderboard but given that they're about
11613s to fall all the way back to the bottom
11616s of hero priority and this is going to be
11618s the only game where they get that first
11621s round hero selection they have got to
11623s make something out of this game for
11625s themselves Jake I mean today has to go
11628s horrifically wrong for wolves if they
11630s are going to ever get first serious
11632s election
11633s again it is a tool ask now right now
11638s they're actually I believe in about
11640s fourth or fifth so there's a world where
11643s next game if they don't have another
11644s good game they're in second selection
11647s which could play into their favor a
11648s little bit as a slingshot
11650s forwards however JL right now as you can
11654s see averaging on a lot of stats in
11656s number one other than uh damage they
11658s number two on damage doing a lot of work
11662s here I'm very interested by Hero select
11665s because we've seen so much of this vower
11667s this monk showing up today uh game two I
11671s was a bit concerned about the vower Monk
11673s and the monks didn't really achieve too
11675s much in that final Circle but it really
11677s came down
11679s to Alliance were denied because there
11682s was a valer the vder extra Health inside
11685s that final Circle hitting the spear on
11688s them shut them down had that not been
11691s about had it been any other character Al
11692s would have taken first and got the kill
11694s multiplier as well I'm sure they
11696s absolutely would have loved to have had
11698s but they were denied unfortunately DG
11701s though these guys popped off last game
11703s these guys were very low on the
11705s scoreboard we're talking like 11th or
11707s 10th right now or were when they first
11709s Jo jumped in and now they jumped up to a
11712s more middle position in the table had a
11714s really really good game there
11717s started with them taking a fight versus
11719s wols which they won very convincingly so
11723s actually to look at them again this one
11726s versus
11728s three yeah they're able to come in
11730s they're able to clean up the two TIG get
11731s a really good R&B here and look at this
11734s Kakashi just playing the slow game here
11735s able to teleport away wayu moves around
11738s the side here this is where they set up
11739s a huge Parry for themselves they're just
11741s kind of baiting the timeout here I don't
11743s think they think they actually come back
11745s and win a 1v3 here I think they're just
11747s trying to run the clock out at 14
11748s seconds but look at this huge lmb into
11750s that massive Parry on to Jing get a ton
11753s of damage there and then K just doesn't
11755s play it well he's able to take control
11757s of the neutral and completely shut it
11759s down and I mean jdg has got to feel so
11762s bad about that turn of events because
11765s the there's no way I think in Kakashi's
11767s mind he's winning that if you see the
11768s way he's playing around the pillars in
11770s the beginning even after picking up the
11772s first elimination he's just trying to
11773s play keep away there's 14 seconds left
11775s he's trying to stall it out but as soon
11777s as he lands that Parry he's at 1 HP he
11780s knows he can get the repost get that
11782s elimination get just a smidge of healing
11785s so he can risk taking that picking up
11787s the elimination and then he's in a one V
11789s one you see him very quickly shift modes
11792s stop trying to play keep away cuz he
11794s knows one hit is all it's going to take
11796s to eliminate him so what does he do he
11798s just turns once he finds control of the
11800s neutral that's all he needs and then he
11803s comes out on top in a 1 V3 we haven't
11805s seen it since I do believe two Jacobs go
11808s absolutely wild coming out from him yeah
11812s obviously woles versus Alliance we
11814s actually missed this one this is where
11815s Alliance beat out wolves
11817s spoiler but it it looks like it starts
11820s so well there I mean Z getting the fre
11821s man with the chain inside then opening
11824s back up but it's the attention switch
11826s here from wolves onto Zen uh wasting a
11829s lot of his Al time but also just forcing
11831s him onto the defensive is really really
11834s big there for woles and uh well sorry
11836s for and the moment wol are now ready to
11838s look turn around Zen Al is just about
11840s timed out and he can get one last little
11841s cone down but it's not going to be
11843s enough damage and L just able to punish
11846s off the back of this one you can see
11847s they try and turn their attention
11848s towards Revenge but wolves are very
11851s scattered at this point KN going
11853s incredibly low me Yuma was able to save
11857s his uh his karumi revenge able to then
11861s kind of get some healing off keeping the
11862s pressure up but I think the problem is
11864s is wolves is Target selection and
11866s they're very scattered in this fight
11868s cost them heavily here I mean Revenge I
11870s believe goes down yeah it does go
11872s down but wolves left with one versus two
11877s SP too long trying to deal with the
11879s karumi and they only let them deal with
11881s it I think the problem is if if it had
11882s been a more coordinated effort to shut
11884s the karumi down wolves could have won
11886s that war we G yeah it it was just poor
11889s Target selection I think their fan their
11892s their plan fell apart sorry their fan um
11894s I think their plan fell apart there uh
11896s after that initial uh huge cone where
11899s they catch three players out and they're
11901s not able to capitalize on it the rest of
11903s the team sort of splits away as they try
11906s to Target lock out the zai and because
11909s of that I think the Panic kicks in
11911s they're not really sure who the target
11912s is they lose some of that coordination
11914s that they had uh earlier into that
11916s engagement like you said Zen is trying
11919s to stick to the karumi that he's trying
11921s to go okay hey let's get the Healer out
11923s even though the the Healer realistically
11925s has spent most of their abilities so I
11927s think that's where the separation comes
11930s in I think the rest of the team now
11931s wants to prioritize the damage dealers
11934s but I think Z is on to the right call
11936s right because the tether still exists
11937s for Kumi just because the ultimate's
11939s gone doesn't mean that Kumi shouldn't be
11941s the priority uh the rest of the team
11943s really needed to help Z go ahead and
11945s lock that down and clear it up and if
11946s they were able to do that quick enough
11948s they could have been in a 3v2 scenario
11950s unfortunately for wolves like I said
11952s that communication breaks down and
11953s that's not what we see happen yeah
11956s absolutely it was uh a bit scattered
11958s from wolves the pack broke up I love
11962s these cards man everyone's got these
11963s cards I haven't got these
11964s cards hey someone on nraa post me some
11969s cards I want yeah I would I would love
11971s to get some of these lovely cards to add
11972s to my
11975s binder yeah well getting ready to go to
11978s game from three I believe this is holl
11980s off right yeah it's got to be
11984s yeah DUS yeah holl off dusk is our game
11987s three so again continuing on that
11990s aggressive aggressive game play we are
11993s just getting ready to go into that game
11995s should be loading up fairly
11998s soon I mean for wolves I was going to
12001s say for wolves in the past this is
12003s actually a comfort map for them right it
12005s um this this has been a map where they
12007s they typically pop off and find strong
12009s games I think that continues to be true
12011s for them uh for whatever reason they
12013s just find a level of comfortability on
12015s this map that they don't see on other
12016s Maps they're going to be in that first
12018s round selection I think they would be
12020s fools not to play sandip in this game
12022s given that they probably won't be given
12024s the opportunity the rest of the day
12025s whatsoever uh it is a nighttime map or
12028s sorry a dusk map which means there are
12030s still plenty of fireflies for them to
12031s put under their belt they need to keep
12033s the aggression going they need to find
12034s another strong game here uh isel's
12037s capable of doing it absolutely uh if any
12039s team's capable of doing it this season
12041s it is UG and it is team wolves so I
12044s expect to see them coming out of the
12045s gate extremely quickly
12049s yeah I think it's going to be more of
12050s the same from wolves I think they have a
12052s very clear game plan today and it hasn't
12054s quite gone to plan but it hasn't gone
12056s awful apart from that last game uh we'll
12059s have to see is it looks like we are
12060s getting geared up and ready to go into
12061s game number three here's our hero select
12064s GG JL and wolves and X1 going to be at
12068s the top end of this selection here lot
12071s for them to play for ug Baler it'll be
12075s first picking OG lost spot at the top
12077s two uh Alliance after that last game
12082s Alliance are down in that lower end of
12084s the select though with them
12087s so things could get explosive over there
12091s let's see what the teams are going to be
12092s picking up again I expect this to be
12094s sand siphon like maybe a few siphons but
12096s like realistically I expect this just to
12098s be a heavy sand siphon especially with
12100s the reappearance a monk I think that's
12102s the big thing is like zyphon is great
12104s but with the fact that there's now a
12106s monk comp in the mix having that uh
12109s Tammy just offers so much more utility
12112s and so much more kind of stopping power
12113s to that pick and sure he can jump
12115s through of his new little jump ability
12117s he can't grab through it still and there
12119s it is four sand siphons picked up off
12121s the bat and this could just be four zons
12125s no blind eight
12126s okay actually some of these teams have
12128s probably played zon by now so they can't
12130s pick it again until they get hero points
12133s triple blind A's coming through actually
12135s interesting
12138s I me if you got a z you would not be
12140s expecting to get it in that last round
12142s selection and know you g saying well
12143s we'll happily take that one
12147s that it's going to be a very very
12149s interesting game we're going to see a
12151s kyin coming in finally here from Team
12153s bada uh this is a comp we have seen
12156s before we haven't seen it do much uh K
12158s going to be rocking that monk comp here
12161s uh I think this is a disaster for k i
12164s again I really enjoy this composition
12167s but into a Lobby that's going to have so
12169s many zons going to have so many sand
12171s siphons and you're the only monk this is
12174s going to be a very hard fought game for
12176s K if they make anything happen at all I
12180s think the yeah the issue is is you know
12183s even if you somehow find a grab through
12185s the the uh through the sandstorms you
12188s got you know zip healing you karumi
12190s healing like actually finalizing on that
12192s kill is going to be incredibly hard also
12195s you know you're the one you're the one
12198s Monk on the lobby everyone knows to
12200s bully one monk if there's only one monk
12202s we take it out so we don't have to deal
12204s with it later I think K have definitely
12206s given themselves a hard
12209s situation but if they make it to the
12211s final a game again we have seen how much
12214s value Valor has in those final moments
12216s the the extra Health that she gains the
12218s extra survivability that she can just
12220s out live you in the storm while throwing
12222s those big Spears at
12224s you it's big it's it's got so much in so
12228s you have to kind of keep that in the
12229s back of our mind here for K there is a
12231s tool at their
12234s disposal as we take a look here at the
12237s abilities that are going to come out I
12238s don't think there's going to be any big
12239s surprises here uh realistically uh I
12243s think we have set up for the most part
12246s uh what these team comps are running
12247s especially so much as Ian and Sans
12249s siphon uh coming through and again no
12251s surprise to see wolves picking up that
12254s uh sand siphon they would have been
12256s absolute fools not to do it going into
12258s this game uh and everybody else in that
12260s first round selection holding on to it
12263s waiting for this game three to come in
12265s lock it in and make something happen off
12267s of it so I I think just good decisions
12269s across the board for most of these teams
12271s the only thing that really shocks me uh
12273s is this decision by K but it also could
12276s be the fact that they're in that last
12277s round of
12278s selection they they could have used up
12281s the two team comps they really wanted to
12282s play earlier on forcing them into a
12285s situation uh where they have to play
12287s this but because there's so many sand
12289s siphons it's just an uphill battle for
12292s them yeah it's going to be it's
12294s definitely going be an uphill battle but
12295s we will see where the teams are wait a
12298s GG whoa hold
12300s on GG have changed drop
12304s spot they drop it Imperial right at the
12307s Firefly cave but they've decided to not
12309s they've gone they've gone still in snow
12312s they got ocean yeah interesting
12317s or sorry Yan uh as we take a look um
12321s very similar spread these last couple
12323s games it's been very much sort of two
12325s teams dropping onto each other uh
12327s looking for those engagements and then
12328s you every once in a while you see a team
12330s like what wols is doing here where
12332s they're looking to loot up they're
12333s looking to get some of those fireflies
12335s and pressure into an aggressive third
12337s party early on uh unfortunately for them
12339s there's only two uh Team sorry one set
12342s of teams that they can pressure on to uh
12345s so they need to make a very very quick
12347s and decisive decision on that rotation
12350s to lock on to wbg and
12353s jdg if to see them do it I'm really
12357s happy to see them do it because I think
12358s that their biggest undoing in the first
12360s two games was being third partied at
12361s that drop so now they are they are
12364s the one with third parties so it's good
12366s to see OG and K though taking a scrap
12369s already K already taking the worst end
12372s of this trade the zip healing coming in
12373s K down a player OG able to get the par
12376s off used to just sur survive a little
12378s longer lovely little par Lance onto the
12380s king cxz going for the kill onto the
12382s king but the king's able to armor Swap
12384s and keep himself going for now K one
12387s sorry two versus three looking for that
12389s turnaround another Parry coming out qgg
12392s gets himself knock back SS Goes Down K
12394s look for the turnar around cxz nobell
12396s this time down he goes qgg left on his
12400s lonon zenu is going to pick FS up the
12402s king just has to survive a little longer
12405s he's done it before he can do do it
12407s again and now three members of ug will
12409s take down qgg ug take that fight nice
12412s and
12415s easy yeah I mean this was I think this
12417s is a really bad drop spot for K they
12419s wanted to contest Podium there so they
12421s could go ahead and get some gear going
12423s because they are that monk comp even
12425s though it's not that traditional monk
12426s composition unfortunately for them
12428s literally any other composition is going
12431s to have a stronger uh drop into that
12434s spot and it's going to be very difficult
12435s for them to come out on top that's
12436s exactly what we see happen as we cut
12438s over here to X1 and the fight breaking
12440s out between them and drg drg already off
12442s to one heck of a start here as X1 down
12445s to a single member here with no weapon
12447s either zdi is going to go down as drg
12450s picks up three eliminations and they
12452s have a strong start to game number three
12455s yet again here jdg trading blows with
12458s the likes of wbg Jing trying to come in
12461s and find something here Sleepwalker has
12463s gone down here to likes of jdg wbg
12466s coming in there we go we're going to see
12468s the Wen Port out hereo forced to just go
12471s ahead and break away though they're not
12472s going to be able to do anything to get
12474s Sleepwalker back into this game
12476s Sleepwalker going to just be forced to
12477s go ahead and burn that early game
12479s Resurrection jdg with four eliminations
12482s under their belt
12484s already yeah really nice one there from
12487s jdg starting off strong once
12490s again I say that once again they are
12492s ninth right now so they got they got a
12494s lot of work to do going forward but
12497s good starts a good start Alliance three
12499s kills OG three kills JL three kills all
12502s of those guys won their drop fights then
12504s uh wolves zero points over to them so
12507s far been very quiet but they are looking
12509s to find
12511s K obviously off the back of that uh
12515s pretty rough
12517s loss if they go out here the K are just
12519s immediately eliminated by the way this
12521s could get very dicey for them 17s finds
12524s himself low HP already NQ going to look
12526s put some pressure in onto them going to
12529s get the knock back onto 9 HQ bubble
12531s actually hits him as well he almost
12533s needs the second bubble going to be able
12534s to survive for just a little longer gets
12535s knocked back wolves keeping that
12537s regression up there's the F Ren sh valer
12540s ultimate broken out here just to keep
12541s them going monk ultimate as well
12543s Sandstorm immediately fired out as an
12545s answer to that and wolves able to break
12548s away they do catch a spear on an ihq but
12549s he's able to break off from that one k
12551s have to burn a bunch of ultimates wolves
12554s did also throw down two of theirs as
12556s well well three of there actually as
12558s well they may to turn around and go for
12560s the re pressure onto K meanwhile Aon and
12564s B having a fight in the snow you gets
12566s hit by Bane's breath is able to get
12568s himself some healing off though Revenge
12570s Now versus three members of bower has
12573s got Yuma sliding into save today Peak
12575s goes down you gets a Parry off onto
12578s Revenge Revenge knocked against the wall
12579s very low HP he's able to reposition and
12581s break away from it Parry coming in again
12584s y takes him out beautiful from you
12587s actually onto Yuma is now Alliance still
12590s going to keep the pressure up onto you
12591s you trying to dodge dodge away very hard
12594s those their invisible F the Matari in
12596s comes the slam from their Z Yuma only
12600s man standing and Alliance able to win
12603s this fight yeah Alliance off to a strong
12605s start yet again in game three here with
12608s six eliminations of the belts will still
12610s giving Chase here uh to team K and K
12613s just trying to give them run around here
12617s they do not want to take this engagement
12620s but wolves is hungry they need this
12622s early game aggression before they had
12624s into the realm of Yang and K here
12626s rocking nothing but gray armor is really
12628s in a tough situation they're going to
12630s see JL Over the Horizon as well and now
12634s they understand the position there and
12635s they have got to be so careful so they
12637s do not end up sandwiched between the
12639s likes of Team wolves and JL they've
12642s decided to accept their fate they have
12643s to win one of these fights if they want
12645s to stay in the game they want to take it
12647s against team wolves here the bubbles
12649s coming in a huge dragons rush into nees
12651s might NQ no way to break away from it NQ
12654s going to take just a second to back off
12655s and pop a heal here off onto that Shield
12657s going to swap into the Cannon Mode here
12659s and start to put the pressure up on to
12661s 17 they do not want to let them get away
12664s this time 17 one HP and a dream IQ not
12667s able to find the cannon shot he was
12668s looking for a 17 go Skyward into the
12670s tree here qgg doing everything he can to
12674s keep wolves separated away from 17 we're
12676s going to see the F come through the over
12678s the shoulder slam 17 still on 1 HP in a
12681s dream the bubbles going to come through
12682s to block any possible range damage
12685s coming in there as we do see everybody
12687s coming through around the corner there
12690s now wolves ni HQ they have got 17
12692s they're going to turn onto the remaining
12694s members there we go we're going to see
12696s the flip coming in cxz still holding on
12699s for dear life as wolves try to chase him
12701s down it looks like the other remaining
12703s member of K is going to break entirely
12705s away from this fight but wolves in a bit
12706s of a pickle as ug shows up now looking
12709s for that third party K cxe wants nothing
12712s to do with it he got the ult off and yet
12713s somehow does not become the target as ug
12716s turns on to team wolves wolves not far
12718s away from their ultimate though still in
12720s a clean position ZK though going to get
12721s caught out with the double ultimate here
12723s taking so much damage zenu forced to use
12726s their F try to break away the rest of
12728s wolves going to catch them on the edge
12729s of the wall though zenu with the
12731s ultimate gets deleted here as all of the
12734s members of wolves catch them on the wall
12736s they stick him there and put the end to
12738s him ug now trying to make something
12741s happen here onto ZK ZK getting some
12743s healing staying alive but the Perry
12745s going to come in ug's SS cleans it up
12747s turns into a 2v2 but K back up for the
12750s third party this is their only
12751s opportunity to keep the game alive they
12753s got one of their members back in because
12755s of this third party opportunity from UG
12758s and now wolves struggling to keep it
12761s alive here as K decides to pay it back
12764s onto team wolves and leaves U G for
12767s second they said let's get wolves out of
12769s it first and now they're trying to turn
12771s things around zenu going to go down the
12773s King goes really low the ultimate being
12774s invested here
12776s k b shows up for the fifth party as a
12779s perfect spear comes in ug is the king
12782s becoming the target here for team bada K
12785s just trying to keep the game
12788s alive oh K oh wolves as well wolves have
12792s been a victim to third parties today is
12795s really their biggest shortcoming took so
12798s much to get two kills for wolves there
12801s they do have the rebirth it's not the
12803s end of the world but they go down there
12804s but they I I believe they actually
12806s picked up the purple armor I think they
12808s got a lot of decent gear and now they
12810s have to start fresh just as the Roma
12813s Yang spawn up so they're not going to be
12814s able to get involved in that I mean very
12816s unlikely that they'll be get involved in
12818s that and again it's just they they have
12822s they're struggling in these early games
12824s to trans
12826s into the kills and it takes too long
12829s they're too iffy with a Target selection
12831s maybe it's hard to say but they're not
12833s translating The Kills quick enough and a
12835s third parties are able to come in while
12837s they've burnt everything and then they
12839s pay an ultimate price for it uh allian
12841s GG and now Baler going to have a little
12843s bit of a scrap for who gets in Alliance
12846s able to just about make it in in time
12848s it's going to be Alliance versus Baler
12849s inside this R gang uh J L versus jdg and
12854s then X1 versus GG but we're going to
12856s stick on batt versus Alliance you going
12859s up nice and high here on this kyin see
12861s if he can make it work as now cutting
12863s down over to ny7 on the
12865s Z has got that ultimate up misses the F
12868s aerial does have the ultimate to reset
12871s the F to use those hals just to get some
12873s damage off you losing so much HP here
12877s doesn't need to chain SL the hirs
12879s absolutely ripping through them does
12880s Miss yet another F unfortunately still
12883s got the ultimate to work with you has
12885s got some healing done for themsel caugh
12887s out by the grapple ny7 not really full
12891s committing right now not really full
12892s sending it I mean his team is pretty
12893s healthy so surprised he hasn't pulled
12895s that
12896s trigger
12898s Bower now going in for that transform F
12902s comes in from ny7 doesn't hit he's
12905s missed every F so far it's been really
12907s rough being zoned Away by uh yuran who's
12911s now D transformed so is exposed and it's
12913s open but I say that and he just gets
12916s massive chunk out onto ny7 looks like
12919s Baler have got Peak going very low
12921s though so they need to turn their
12922s attention try and save Peak but peak's
12923s already down and the Z hasn't really
12926s achieved much honestly it's been hum of
12929s Revenge of like hard carries this R Yang
12932s my7 is just flipping around missing FS
12934s the whole time and getting focused down
12937s but they have been able to secure
12939s themselves enough attention but his team
12941s being able to TI this one up and
12942s Alliance will win that r with
12944s Yang yeah absolutely Ely huge for
12947s Alliance they are crushing right now in
12949s game number three as we move over to JL
12951s who's already lost a member here into
12953s the members of jdg now a 1v3 scenario
12956s jdg having flashbacks and they decide we
12960s are not going to let that happen ever
12963s again as they absolutely cut through the
12964s members or sorry the final member of
12967s Team JL and unfortunately uh we're
12969s actually going to see wolves eliminated
12971s from the lobby in yet another third
12973s party scenario by the likes to drg and
12977s UG and this is not the game wolves was
12979s looking for here in game number three
12982s they're going to have a lot of work to
12984s do coming back in Alliance here uh with
12987s that Vermilion Birds might immediately
12988s out taking a fight here with the likes
12991s of Team GG both of these teams trying to
12994s make the most of this Vermilion Birds
12996s might while they have it and we're going
12997s to see Alliance pin GG's lxm to the wall
13000s here find double eliminations here and
13003s continue to climb the ranks here with 12
13005s eliminations
13007s zone three B showing up to try to get in
13009s the mix as well but Alliance still with
13012s activated here has an opportunity
13014s unfortunately ny7 will go down Revenge
13016s trying to break away from this but with
13018s Ms might this game is still going to be
13020s alive for them the question is just can
13022s they put another point on the board
13024s before bada cuts through them and bada
13026s really wants to make something happen
13028s here they're trying to go ahead and lock
13029s down onto Revenge Revenge not making it
13031s easy for them contining to keep the
13033s pressure up if Revenge can land one of
13035s these rmbs on on to you and very quickly
13037s could spell disaster you able to get
13040s caught out there they don't find the
13041s elimination right away Revenge now
13043s taking range shots from downrange it's
13045s going to go to GG as they risk running
13048s it back for the fourth party into this
13051s after they lost their villion Birds Mite
13053s just a few seconds ago to team
13056s Alliance very very uh confusing there
13059s from the side of GG
13061s but eight four kills under their belt X1
13065s with the r debuff looking for the kills
13067s oh wolves got eliminated didn't even see
13068s that happen that's a that's a rough one
13071s for wolves Alliance 12 kills in this
13075s game ug seven kills we could have two
13079s teams who are getting very close if not
13081s made it by the end of this game
13083s depending on multipliers and everything
13085s if Alliance get enough kills but still
13088s got a little bit of a way to go before
13089s even get to that
13092s area X1 unable to really find anyone to
13095s scout out of at the moment unfortunately
13097s for themselves there's
13098s ewg taking a fight here they got the
13101s Draco storm they have a lot to work with
13104s immediately going to force the uh Wen
13107s Port out Uber to safety from the side of
13112s jdg interesting that ewg don't commit I
13115s mean I guess they are fighting into a
13117s team with a million Birds M so it's like
13120s it's like fighing Vikings isn't it you
13122s know that they didn't fear death they
13125s just they're just going at you that's
13126s exactly what it's like fighting a team
13128s with a million burd M cuz there is no
13130s consequence for them going down here big
13133s F actually does come in there on to the
13136s members of ewg but the Dragon Rush can
13138s do so much work from Z with a spear and
13141s ewg with the Draco storm they have the
13144s combat buff so they are able to win it
13147s over the team who have the safety buff
13149s the whole He teams in the area this
13151s could get very Scrappy here
13154s R yeah this this is going to be a very
13156s very interesting game 20 or sorry 31
13159s players still left remaining alive only
13162s team wolves completely eliminated from
13164s the lobby thus far J BBV here really
13166s trying to set something up here onto A1
13169s the the karumi ult going to come through
13170s the sand ult going to come through as
13172s well as JL cleans up uh XL y here but so
13176s many teams coming in for the third party
13178s fourth party potential trying to play
13180s gatekeeper onto JL here JL really needs
13182s to break away from this drg coming in
13184s Kakashi here with the Viper ultimate is
13186s going to completely separate vvv from
13189s the rest of the team here into the Zone
13190s tick as well no place for vvv to go
13193s Kakashi with the musket shots going to
13194s clean up the elimination as drg goes to
13196s six here and now look to clean up the
13198s rest of JL that they have caught out
13200s here uh in the edge of the Zone there's
13202s not a whole lot JL can do about this txj
13205s going to get parried and immediately
13206s picked off as well we're going to see X1
13208s go down to GG in the kill feed as well
13210s they're going to be the second team
13211s fully eliminated JL going to follow them
13214s in short succession as grg cleans it up
13216s and goes to I do believe nine
13219s eliminations uh here as we cut back to
13222s team GG who just eliminated X1 now
13225s getting dropped onto by the members of
13227s UG and it is just fight after fight in
13229s the zone right here I feel like we're
13231s over in EU right now as every single
13234s fight uh since this kicked off has been
13236s in the zone and nobody's allowing these
13238s teams to get back in either ug looking
13241s to set up and play gatekeeper against
13243s team GG here who's burnt multiple uh of
13246s their ultimates here going to make it
13247s very hard for them to pressure into the
13249s Zone against the team that still has SS
13251s going drg trying to set up forward it as
13253s well ug around the corner here going to
13256s actually decide to go around the side so
13258s they don't have to pressure into drg as
13260s we cut back to Alliance currently
13262s leading the lobby inside the rum Yang
13263s going to be going head tohe with the
13264s members of Team
13266s jdg yeah see how they're going to be
13267s able to pull this one off ny7 once again
13270s he missed a lot of f in the last one
13272s this time able to make the connection
13275s there on a two TI massive chunk out of
13278s his health bar they've got the reset as
13279s well from that Matari see if he can land
13281s another f it was Zero for four last time
13284s so far one for one two for two that's
13287s going to be a kill secure as well for
13289s his team pops the ultimate as well to
13291s get those chain SES down and jdg do
13293s secure a kill onto one player of
13295s Alliance they've lost Yuma this could
13297s get a little dicey here golden armor
13299s onto M7 though means is relatively tanky
13302s but it's a two versus three they're also
13304s dealing with chain SES in response but
13305s but the big cone comes out from my7
13307s Revenge is already fallen though it
13309s hasn't done enough to buy time can we
13311s see another one versus three from my7
13314s he's about to get that F back up but
13316s nope he is cooked down he goes uh this
13320s is this is something I hate to see this
13321s is something we've been talking about
13322s with those fist blades far too often
13324s being able to take control of the
13326s neutral with the fist blades into
13327s jumping lmb lmbb into jumping lmb lmb is
13331s just so much damage you don't typically
13335s see it as much uh in trios like we just
13337s saw happen here at ny7 uh but in into
13340s solos it's just
13342s extremely oppressive just how much
13345s damage you can get off of a hit confirm
13347s there and we just see it knock ny7 down
13350s with no chance for him to stand up and
13352s retaliate uh into that 1v3 scenario but
13355s Alliance still 12 eliminations leading
13357s the lobby right now and plenty of time
13358s because this is second realm of Yang
13360s which means they have that extended Yang
13362s depletion time so hopefully they're
13364s going to be able to find some soul
13366s blooms and get themselves back into this
13367s game Jake yeah they really get their
13370s soul blooms this is their game to
13373s potentially secure themselves top
13376s spot so it's it's really it's really do
13380s or die right now for the side of
13382s Alliance well not do or die but it's
13384s it's do or do or try next game but like
13387s that's not as excited to say this could
13390s be their opportunity to secure themsel a
13393s MVP position before any other team team
13397s right now OG are actually closing that
13398s Gap to them there's only seven points
13401s between them and
13402s Alliance and all of the other teams are
13404s actually fairly gapped between these two
13407s right now so I mean J and GG I mean GG
13409s is still in the game with seven kills so
13411s G have any opportunity to come back as
13413s Bower drop down onto k
13416s q i mean we said it was going to be a
13419s rough game for the V monk comp uh it has
13422s been a rough game for the V monk comp Q
13424s still running around with gray
13427s armor he is as weak as paper to them I
13432s don't think he's going to be able to
13433s survive for long especially with these
13434s grapples following in onto him Bower be
13437s a to SEC kill that kill nice and easy
13439s down he goes only one player of K Left
13441s Alive and they don't have any money for
13443s revive so it's it's a tough
13447s one yeah it's a really bad state for
13449s them to be we are going to get over team
13450s Alliance here though oh the separation
13453s of a member of wbg Jing C off from the
13456s rest of the team here they able to avoid
13458s the Tesa ultimate as well coming in
13460s we're going to see the Viper come
13462s through Alliance N17 no choice there we
13464s go the matarial going to come in saving
13466s them from that Viper ultimate AO
13468s actually going to go down here to Yuma
13471s it keeps them from getting the teleport
13473s off which just spells disaster for wbg
13476s as they needed that reset and here it is
13478s Alliance is going to go to 15
13481s eliminations they're going to get the
13482s soul blooms they desperately need to
13485s keep their game alive as they continue
13488s to climb further and further ahead of
13490s every single team in this lobby with
13493s over a 10-point lead on ug who's
13496s currently in second place they are so
13499s close to that match point
13501s threshold so close 65 points is all they
13505s need and they have an absolute monster
13509s performance and with those kills as well
13511s like that was so convincingly strong
13513s like they just bursted through the wo
13515s before he could go out for the teleport
13517s and that saved their game and ended wg's
13521s game really really big performance there
13523s from Alliance they need to keep that
13525s pressure up though if they want to gets
13528s into as good a position as possible but
13530s they have absolutely yeated themsel over
13534s everyone else in the standings right now
13535s I mean it is 10 points between them and
13537s ug JL GG wolves all miles behind
13543s them the GG r in this game so they have
13546s an ability to close that Gap as we do
13548s actually see ewg getting themselves into
13551s a uh little scrap AO but Alliance are
13554s actually split up most crucially which
13556s could be a little bit dangerous for them
13558s Bower sniffing in the area as well and y
13562s s Yuma's down oh that's what happened
13565s he's going to go get yor
13567s up oh no XI exis done the double back to
13570s check the
13572s Karen did they see
13577s Alliance I think they spent all their
13578s money as
13579s well yeah Alliance is not in a strong
13583s position they've really got to make
13585s something happen here that's a rebirth
13587s charm just sitting out in the
13590s open huh I oh they must bought one and
13593s then gone no wait they got
13596s me oh this is so bad for
13599s Alliance yeah Alliance in a not strong
13602s position here at all be forced to come
13604s in with the F just to buy a a little bit
13605s of space so unfortunate for them
13607s Unfortunately they could not stay in the
13609s zone any longer the flamer coming in
13612s there as well going to make things
13613s difficult ny7 just trying to get away
13616s but that flamer just ticking through the
13618s HP ewg going to knock down ny7 Revenge
13623s no place to go either forced to burn the
13625s ultimate as well as all of these teams
13626s play gatekeeper they do keep it alive
13628s for one additional placement here as K
13631s cxe will go down uh eliminating K from
13635s the lobby Alliance does go down
13637s unfortunately but still 15 eliminations
13639s to their name there's actually a world
13641s where they still walk away with MVP this
13643s game there is a world I do think the
13645s mistake they made was turning for the
13648s fight I actually think my7 should have
13649s just run and left the zip and then they
13652s had the rebirth charm they could have
13653s picked the player up but I don't know
13655s maybe they figured there was no world
13657s they were going to get that rebirth off
13658s I mean the circle is already quite small
13661s so maybe they just decided if a miracle
13664s happens and we two versus three with no
13666s HP then the miracle happened but it did
13669s not alas it was not to be as GG actually
13674s now pressing up onto ewg with the L out
13676s of the lobby this is actually GG's
13677s opportunity to strike and uh close that
13680s Gap could do them a lot of favors just
13683s putting some cannon fire in they still
13685s have the ultimate available CGS but he's
13686s not willing to full commit yet although
13690s ewg are pretty low maybe they are going
13691s to full commit getting hit up though by
13694s just so much crowd control CJs just
13697s doesn't get to move charm into Viper
13699s stun into lock down luckily he has a lot
13703s of healing from his karumi but he has
13706s lost a player Al though the karumi
13708s should be able to te lxm back up as
13710s they're also just going to go for the
13711s pickup lm's back on the map and now GG
13714s need to get into that Circle
13716s ultimate not been used yet from CJs
13719s there it is that's going to be on to the
13721s members 330 actually taking out a lot of
13723s heat here also they got the fire
13726s coming in from two TI ewg going very low
13728s CGS going to be able to secure that kill
13730s no it's two TI with the meteor to secure
13733s it blink out the safety GG are
13737s eliminated to the
13739s Zone what is going on in this game I
13741s feel like everyone's G
13743s rapid yeah I mean there's been so many
13746s Zone fights here today this is very
13748s unlik CN uh but given the high stakes of
13752s the situation we expected things to be
13755s pretty hectic today for a lot of these
13758s teams and that's exactly what we're
13759s seeing here cookie here by the way also
13761s going to be gate kept here by the
13763s members of drg who knock him down on the
13764s Zone drg jdg setting themselves up for
13767s the best possible success to Dethrone
13769s Alliance from that mvp right now jdg on
13772s 12 eliminations drg on 10 uh looking
13776s pretty good as we get ready to head into
13777s the late game 58 seconds until zone 5
13779s collapses on to zone six we're seeing
13781s that last late game Banes breath come
13784s through dear able to position themselves
13786s on the back side of it completely safe
13789s from the rest of these teams but bow
13791s here take a look by the way three sets
13794s of legendary armor three legendary
13797s weapons uh on this kyin comp that we
13800s talked about before you know kylin
13801s seeing some Nerfs into this particular
13803s patch being far less favored as they
13805s were already falling out of favor this
13807s is a very interesting composition with
13808s kylin with the uan and the ziping as
13812s well B only on 8 eliminations but really
13817s successfully set up for a strong late
13819s game yeah they really are and I mean
13822s when we had the scoreboard up you can
13823s see but everyone left in the Lobby's
13825s actually got a fair amount of points
13826s like this is a world where things get
13829s very close the scoreboard gets very
13831s close and I think we're right I I do
13833s think we're going to see probably a
13835s slightly later day um I don't think
13837s it'll go to eight cuz I think we're
13838s going to have so many teams on Match
13840s Point by the time we get to that point
13843s that I just I think a eight game would
13846s be really really unlikely to see drg
13849s though trying to see if they can contest
13851s this Draco storm Spirit well right now
13854s it is jdg holding
13856s it uh maybe everyone's just going to
13858s leave it Bower decid not to not to even
13861s look at it with all that gear they say
13862s Draco storm Smo storm doesn't matter
13865s don't need
13866s it as uh now with this Draco storm I
13869s want to see jdg get aggressive and there
13871s are a bunch of teams in the area this is
13872s their opportunity uh two tick goes
13876s through the wall with that Chaine onto
13878s the members of drg drg now being forced
13881s out by the Zone but Kakashi gets hit up
13884s through the wall again consistently
13886s being a nuisance two tick with his chain
13888s Kashi now comes in for a bit of Revenge
13890s onto two tick but it's going to be hard
13892s with that Draco
13894s storm just buffing them up so much
13896s giving that big slows as now Viper
13898s Ultimate Breaks out by Kakashi but Kashi
13900s is incredibly low locks down onto the
13901s members of B but the range shots coming
13904s in from all sides on to Kakashi JD G two
13907s tick turns around finds Kakashi Kakashi
13909s gets the knock back on to Jing but he's
13911s still standing firm for now down he goes
13913s ug's SS able to secure an AP kill for
13915s the team and they are looking to contest
13918s first place they looking to knock
13920s Alliance to been knocked out of this
13921s game out of first place going into game
13924s number four two TI going for a cheeky
13926s reload just to make sure his Cannon is
13927s topped up and ready to go and there is
13929s not many people left in this final
13931s Circle only 10 players in a fairly large
13933s final Circle it's being a blood buff of
13936s a game three here on holl off a lot of
13938s teams getting knocked out that cannon
13940s fire from two TI doing so much work Kiki
13943s with the bow able to secure the kill
13945s onto SS Bower also firing back onto one
13947s himself but Pak getting knocked with his
13949s back towards that zone is down he goes
13952s jdg secure their 14th kill of the game
13956s make it 1550 they're on fire this game
13959s securing another one there with the
13960s meteor two tick got a meteor available
13964s to fire out onto the Memphis does get a
13966s little bit over the over the head onto
13968s you but you is dunzo Jin secures the
13972s kill and it looks like jdg closing in on
13975s that 20 bomb 16 kills in their pocket
13979s you can see
13980s Iran transformed into the Terra Cotta
13984s Warrior or a mecha warrior in this case
13985s is's going gunam jing finds himself
13988s getting very low two TI continues to
13991s apply pressure though onto the king to
13993s knock him back into the zone Tok loses
13995s that armor has to use the F to get back
13997s into the Zone Jin gonna do some work to
14000s heal up as TK gets the pot reset off the
14002s Kings going
14004s down and
14006s UG and not sorry jdg not going to be
14010s looking to get that kill as uh dong
14012s Jing's just running into the zone as a
14014s denial here two tick though can he find
14017s him no he can't goes down to the
14020s Zone big
14022s win yeah absolutely huge here for J adg
14025s especially given the misplay that they
14028s have inside the realm of Yang where they
14029s give a 3v one to drg in game number two
14034s this is the recovery that jdg needed to
14037s get that confidence back up to keep them
14040s in the game I think Jake yeah no it
14042s really did massive massive win there for
14045s jdg
14047s and every game the scoreboard changed
14050s significantly that's the big thing for
14052s me is like we're seeing we're seeing
14055s games where typically you know what
14058s we're used to in the r is you know a
14060s couple of teams will Shuffle about but
14062s like the scoreboard genuinely changes
14065s dramatically every game in these Grand
14067s finals and it makes sense cuz these are
14070s the best of the best in the region right
14071s like these are our top 12 players or top
14074s well more than that top 12
14076s teams that of course we're seeing you
14079s know games where everything is
14081s incredibly tight and like games where
14084s the lobbies change massively off the
14086s back of
14087s it but this does mean that I think once
14090s we get to match point threshold we're
14092s going to have so many teams on Match
14094s Point Threshold at the same time
14097s but I think that's where we'll probably
14099s see our final game of the day I just
14101s don't know when we hit that match point
14103s threshold for multiple teams that that's
14104s probably the big thing I think there's a
14106s possibility of us having two teams going
14109s over Match Point Threshold at the end of
14110s game number four coming up here uh which
14112s is going to be very interesting um
14114s especially cuz Alliance is doing
14116s extremely well uh they have not really
14119s had a bad game all day today uh their
14122s game two obviously very strong their
14124s game three very strong unfortunately I
14127s think they just find themselves in a bad
14128s position uh the way they're forced to
14130s come back into the circle after losing a
14132s member here but the way they come in
14134s they clean up wbg they get themselves
14136s back in the game uh and then un they
14138s walk into that very unfortunate
14139s situation but they still have 15
14141s eliminations in their belt they're very
14142s likely when we go to the scoreboard
14144s going to be very easily in second place
14146s off the back of this game with a huge
14149s number of points they're still going to
14150s be in first place on the overall
14152s leaderboards uh going into the next game
14154s and they need less than 10 points I'm
14156s pretty sure uh to be over that match
14159s point threshold going in to game number
14161s five so for Alliance a consistency game
14165s next game makes them the first team to
14167s cross that threshold and any single MVP
14170s after that Nets them the championship
14172s that they have been looking for that
14174s they have been fighting for I mean this
14176s is a team again we talk about easily one
14178s of the most improved teams if not the
14180s most improved team uh this year and they
14183s have been hungry every time you look at
14186s Alliance they are getting better they
14188s are coming in with new comps they are
14190s finding ways to find that consistency
14193s and it has been a a a very steady growth
14196s but an exponential growth at that for
14199s this team and now here they are
14202s dominating the top of the leaderboard
14205s and this is what we kind of expected
14207s from them today they were up there with
14209s the likes of JL with the likes of wolves
14211s and with the likes of ugs for kind of
14213s our top contenders for the board today
14215s and they have not disappointed Jake no
14218s not at all not at all it's here we go
14221s scoreboard coming in all my word
14224s 24.4 points over to jdg Alliance walkout
14227s with 16 drg 13 10 for Bower 10 for rug
14232s 8.5 for ewg 8 for
14235s oh sorry GG 4.5 JL
14238s like there's a few bad scorers in here
14240s but for the most part that is a pretty
14243s pretty bloody good score line for
14245s everyone I'm sure they're all going to
14245s be happy with that one wolves probably
14247s getting a little bit irritated right now
14249s because their games have not got the
14251s plan these first three games have been a
14254s little bit poo if I'm completely honest
14257s with you mate like they have struggled
14259s to transition their early game into
14261s anything and while other teams have been
14263s snowballing around them they've kind of
14265s been picking up the pieces they've lost
14266s their drop fights they then have to then
14268s reset they then lost the fight after
14270s that they get third parted like it is
14272s being rough but look at those damages
14274s from two tick
14277s 32,000 Dam almost 33,000 damage and Jing
14281s did get our most kills so probably will
14283s be our MVP but two tick huge on the side
14288s absolutely
14289s huge yeah and I mean jdg again
14292s desperately needed this game right yeah
14295s then wolves all the way down in seventh
14297s position now yeah this is crazy them but
14301s jdg needed this game you know coming
14303s into game number two one of the first uh
14308s on v3s we've ever seen a team lose and
14311s it's inside a realm of Yang they they
14313s don't have a good game after that they
14315s very quickly crumble it's why we see
14317s only a game score of 5.5 for game two
14319s coming in from them but here in this
14321s game they pop off they make it to the
14322s end they take control there's going to
14324s be hug for their confidence going
14325s forward Alliance though still
14328s 52.3 uh they need to have a 13.7 point
14332s game that is all that separates them
14335s from being across that threshold and
14337s this is a team that has now become known
14339s for its consistency they always go to
14342s the end game so I would be very very
14345s surprised not to see them cross that
14346s threshold after our next game here as we
14349s take a look at some replays here brought
14350s to you by Thunderbolt jdg here in the
14352s early game on the w BG that dragons were
14355s putting in so much work uh for Jing we
14358s see him do that quite a few times here
14360s drg again off to another really good
14362s start this game just not able to
14364s translate it to a strong final Circle in
14366s the end yet again but drg still having a
14369s very strong day for themselves and
14370s Alliance here with this early engagement
14372s on to GG this was huge they were just
14374s able to put the whole team on the edge
14376s of that Tami old coming outside of the
14378s realm of Yang there and clean up those
14380s eliminations unfortunately for them they
14381s do get third parted uh right after that
14383s as get over to ewg here that dragons
14386s rush into the nees putting in work for
14388s them as they turn on to jdg jdg luckily
14391s with the Vermilion Birds might keeps
14392s their game alive and then unfortunately
14394s core Alliance yet again jdg inside the
14397s realm of Yang and they do not let happen
14400s what they had happen to them in game one
14401s and they get Alliance down to a single
14403s member and very quickly eliminate them
14407s as all three members dog him down as we
14409s head over yet again jdg in the end here
14411s separating ug's the king cleaning up
14413s elimination after elimination the only
14416s elimination they let slide is a member
14418s of drg who's able to get in the circle
14420s able to use that Tessa F to keep them
14421s off of them and give that elimination to
14424s the circle as we see here we're going to
14427s see Jing coming through there with the
14428s MVP eight eliminations on matar 26,000
14431s damage dto rounds and that benic descent
14435s coming in play here for him but most of
14437s that damage coming in believe it or not
14438s from their skills or ultimate here on
14440s Matari yeah really really big stuff
14443s coming in from that Matari
14444s Jin had a fantastic game and jdg jump up
14448s into fourth place off the back of this
14450s as well so they're going to be see
14452s feeling very good with himself and yeah
14455s I I things are going to go tight things
14456s are going to remain very very tight I I
14458s do believe you're right I think we've
14460s seen a very consistent get day from uh
14463s from the alliance so the OD of them
14464s getting those 13 points they need to
14466s make it into the uh into the Mach Point
14468s threshold for the game after uh very
14471s much
14472s alive but
14474s everyone's been popping off today um so
14477s there is a world where we see someone
14478s shut Alliance down it is you know it's
14481s been a very just explosive day like that
14483s last game was just I like I don't
14487s understand why they were fighting in the
14488s zone so much it it really was like what
14490s we saw back when we covered the EU
14492s qualifiers a couple years ago that was
14494s exactly what was going on over there uh
14496s and it felt a lot akin to that where
14498s like you know I expected I expected a
14502s weird thing today I thought we'd have
14503s aggressive game games or we'd have like
14506s very very reserved games I'm glad we got
14509s the aggressive ones I didn't expect them
14512s to be this aggressive though it caught
14514s me off guard how bloodthirsty these
14517s teams are so I'm excit of going forward
14519s I'm I'm excited to see what game four is
14521s going to look like cuz it is it's
14523s getting tight at the top and more and
14525s more teams at the same time are
14527s clambering towards that 65 point
14529s threshold and that's where everything
14531s gets really exciting cuz MVP is the
14533s difference between winning or losing
14535s yeah and I mean if we take note you know
14537s we talked about a lot of these top teams
14539s today uh if you will uh and these teams
14543s strategy has been aggression right that
14545s is what has made them so dominant
14547s throughout this season and they've been
14549s able to follow it up uh even off of the
14551s end of Bad Games before we talk more
14553s about that we're going to throw things
14554s over for a quick interview don't go
14556s anywhere before we come back and lock in
14557s for game number
14560s four ladies and gentlemen welcome to the

14669s we're like talking about wow we already
14671s have like we are leading the scoreboard
14673s and also that we have really high kills
14675s now in the latest game and we're like
14677s thinking about which good equipment we
14680s use and to um like help us to pass the
14684s match point and that's why we just like
14686s missed the match point okay let's move
14688s on to next part answer for
14690s Treasure so you guys can see the
14692s question and if you know the answer
14694s please type them in the chat box and our
14696s question for this turn which is how many

14718s okay so you know now in MVP like a lot
14720s of black teams and your opponent they
14723s talk about aliens It's s like you have
14725s the specific style and how you think
14728s about this
14757s okay so for us I think for our team it's
14759s like we're really Brave to like we like
14762s join in the fighting and because I think
14764s all the skills is from the fighting so
14766s every time if we have the fight in the

14771s our players prepared and let's start
14773s counting now

15063s welcome back ladies and gentlemen noaca
15065s fans as we are settling in for our game
15068s four of the nvpl summer 2024 Grand
15072s finals that's right this is it for the
15075s summer split we will Crown our Champion
15077s by the end of today Alliance currently
15081s off to a tear right now sitting at the
15084s very top of the leaderboard with a
15085s 10-point lead over any single team and
15089s only 13 points away from being over that
15094s match point threshold where they have a
15096s chance to walk away the champion if they
15098s can find an
15100s MVP this next game promises to be a
15103s banger as we head in and teams finally
15105s get some hero points of their name nine
15106s hero points available for these teams
15109s with four possible games to go this is
15113s going to be very very interesting to see
15115s how the rest of the day plays out so far
15118s Alliance C team have actually held on to
15119s first place in the in the um in the
15122s scoreboard we started with Wolves who
15123s immediately lost it to OG who then lost
15125s it to Alliance and then even with the
15127s jdg win Alliance do win as well uh
15132s speaking of winning you guys can get
15134s yourself some twitch drops uh obviously
15136s well unfortunately we don't this isn't
15137s the graphic but I we don't actually know
15141s no one knows what the twitch drop is so
15143s it's like a mystery so make sure you
15145s have your account linked and you get
15146s yourself some goodies uh just for
15148s watching which is all lovely and this is
15150s obviously where our world championship
15152s finals will be and where will they be
15155s there we go that was incredibly hard for
15157s me to speak apparently but make sure you
15159s tune in for job J Cup's gonna be sick
15161s I'm so excited for it um
15165s I'm excited to see who's going to be
15166s going because we still got to decide
15167s that like there's still a little bit
15169s more work to do before we get there
15171s obviously next week we got the
15172s qualifiers starting up today we got
15175s obviously the grand finals um and the
15178s winner of today just guaranteed a spot
15179s at World Championship so it it's it's
15182s you know it's not all about that prize
15184s money it's about making it to world it's
15186s about kind of proving your point and so
15188s far Alliance are set up for a pretty
15190s good position but I don't want to be too
15193s excit
15194s I don't want to be too excited because
15196s everyone's popping off today like
15197s Alliance have been consistently good but
15200s everybody is having a pretty bloody good
15203s day unless your name is wolves in which
15205s case things have not gone to plan so far
15207s they have uh oh they they're kind of
15210s more puppies at the moment they are just
15211s getting walked all over they're having a
15213s pretty rough day I mean I mean their
15216s game one was not bad by any stretch of
15218s the imagination let's let's be a little
15220s fair for team wolves they did have one
15222s pop off game today unfortunately their
15224s Games 2 and three where they equally
15226s needed to have a good performance uh
15228s given the way the format changes have
15230s been made they do crumble uh so they
15232s have made things drastically harder for
15235s themselves especially given the position
15237s that Alliance has set themselves up in
15239s uh given the performance of jdg in the
15241s last match not only putting a ton of
15243s eliminations up on the board but also
15245s finding uh that first place multiplier
15247s which is huge for them you know Alliance
15250s was denied it in game number two so they
15252s still have a big game in game to uh they
15254s do walk away the MVP but unfortunately
15256s they don't get that first place
15257s multiplier which could have really
15258s skyrocketed them uh up the board
15261s potentially I think if they get that
15262s multiplier in the previous game they
15264s actually probably find themselves over
15266s match point at the end of this game uh
15268s even though this wasn't as big a game
15270s for them they still put up 15
15272s eliminations Alliance out here playing
15274s their hearts out but it is still very
15276s much anybody's game going forward uh we
15279s have so many teams like you said very
15281s close at that 40 Point range where one
15284s or two games here we could see a ton of
15287s teams across that threshold um like you
15290s said I don't see is potentially going to
15292s game eight there's always a world uh but
15295s the way these teams are playing the
15296s level of aggression that they're
15297s bringing I don't expect them to slow
15300s down a single bit as we get ready to
15302s head into game number four yeah and uh a
15305s few things I want to touch on um there
15308s is some good news for WS here they are
15311s now in seventh place so they don't have
15313s to worry about being in the last
15315s rotation of hero select how lovely is
15317s that for them a nice little step up but
15321s they also have a lot of work to do they
15323s if they if they want to catch up they
15324s need to be in that last four really
15327s that's uh that's where you want to
15330s be but this is the point where yeah the
15332s hero select will be shuffled about um
15335s and it will be based on your performance
15337s and your standing going backwards so
15340s first in the uh standing last in
15343s priority for hero
15347s select everyone gets their hero points
15349s at this
15351s point K's manager goes or coach or I
15354s don't actually know what no that's
15355s that's T225 that's their solos player
15359s wait is he coaching their solos their
15360s trios team yeah it looks like it today
15363s he's he's here he's repping the team he
15365s he barely misses out on uh actually
15369s being the solos Champion for this summer
15372s split just yesterday
15374s uh even though he was finally able to
15375s take a by weekly in solos um T225 here
15379s supporting his team this you know I love
15383s the sportsmanship here in the nakaka
15384s community look at this by the way tt25
15387s should should be crushed right now does
15389s not live down the curse of being second
15391s place yet again in these huge finals but
15395s rather than wallowing in it where is he
15397s he's right here supporting his trios
15399s team making sure they are on top of
15401s their game today
15404s yes
15405s uh I don't think they've been having the
15407s greatest day unfortunately
15410s but it it's weird actually that last
15413s game yeah know that last game was rough
15414s to be fair that last game was rough cuz
15416s they picked a comp that was counted by
15418s the entire Lobby and got super bullied
15422s out again though wolves it was honestly
15425s wolves should have absolutely smashed
15426s them but they just bought so much time
15429s but they bought wolves's elimination
15432s like wolves Got Run down by the entire
15434s Lobby because they can't finalize on
15436s these kills they they are really
15438s struggling to translate into into Quick
15442s kills and into Quick
15444s burst and the fights elongate so long
15446s that someone else hears the the action
15448s knows what ultimates would have been
15449s blown and they can just come in a third
15451s party and uh secure themselves the
15454s victories knowing that they're going
15456s into a fight with vaults where their
15457s opponents St and that is the power of
15459s those third parties which unfortunately
15461s just has been the ban of wolves
15464s existence today uh Bower on your screen
15467s right now
15468s um Bower be a little underwhelming
15470s Unfortunately today considering they are
15472s our bi-weekly three
15476s Champions so far I haven't seen much
15479s from
15480s Bower they've kind of just been a a
15483s stepping stone for other teams to walk
15485s over and especially and I am not going
15488s to drop this by the way run they had
15490s backto back white tigers cons consistant
15493s buff that's like five and a half minutes
15497s of or six minutes of white
15499s tigers and they got zero kills of it
15502s they didn't do anything until it wore
15505s off and then died so I have to admit I
15509s was a little disappointed on that one
15510s Bal they've got a lot of work to do to
15513s step up as uh you can see wolves are
15515s actually going to be in that second
15517s round selection Baler in that uh bottom
15520s end of the table as well but theg jdg UG
15523s and Alliance all right now fighting for
15525s a spot in that MCH Point's vicinity
15530s where J GG also in second rotation so
15533s they're lower down the table I I was
15535s saying this earlier though the table
15537s just dramatically changes every
15540s game yeah it's a tight game right now
15542s because everybody has been putting on uh
15545s like equal amounts of points for
15547s themselves so it's been kind of crazy to
15549s see uh given the state of things uh but
15553s I I absolutely love it I I I love seeing
15557s everything coming together and being so
15559s tight for these teams uh because it
15561s makes for really good games if we take a
15563s look here at the first round selection
15565s uh not a lot of surprise seeing the sand
15568s siphon and the um siphon coming out from
15571s that first round of selection heading
15573s into the second round of selection this
15574s is crucial for wolves wolves needs to
15577s move back out of the Seventh Place
15579s position they need to get back into the
15580s top end of that list uh they need to
15583s make some moves here they're in second
15585s round selection they've got a lot of
15586s options they've got nine hero points
15589s they need to start spending some of
15591s those hero points before that flame dies
15594s and they're going to actually take uh
15597s that blind date comp here they're going
15598s to need to look for those skirmishes
15600s which is kind of what the opposite of
15602s what they've been doing they haven't
15604s really been finding those good third
15605s party skirmishes they've been engaging
15608s overc committing to fights and then
15610s because of that overc committal finding
15612s themselves being the ones getting
15613s skirmished on into those third parties
15616s which has cost them dearly Alliance
15617s going to pick up the blind 8 comp as
15619s well looking to go into this game and do
15623s exactly what we were just talking about
15624s with Team wolves jdg going to be picking
15626s up that monk comp here uh with the vda
15630s so is ug as
15632s well maybe drg decides to lock in it as
15636s well cuz there is only one sand siphon
15638s if I'm not mistaken correct Jake uh yes
15640s I believe you're right cuz Z was all oh
15643s my word drg that is
15648s bold I respect the hustle this is
15651s honestly something which I've like
15652s talked about so much teams are too
15654s scared to spend their points sometimes I
15657s have so much respect for drg for locking
15659s that in there because they're going to
15661s get very few opportunities to lock in a
15663s lot of these top comps if you're on the
15664s top end of the table and you kind of
15667s want to stay at that that there
15669s so ultimately comp for that are going to
15672s cost more now you probably could have
15674s gone sand siphon to be fair and then
15676s spent a little less points and then next
15678s game when more people are locking in
15680s Sans siphon do the opposite but they see
15683s the trend of the lobby they're going to
15684s follow the trend of the lobby I can't
15686s critique it I can't critique it I love
15688s theg for that so much
15691s respect yeah this is something you and
15693s me have talked about all season is the
15696s need to just spend the points right like
15698s d drg knows what it is they I I think
15701s they see the trend right they see that
15703s this is not probably going to go to game
15705s number eight they're in the top end of
15707s the table right now they need to put
15708s points up on the board they need to get
15710s to that threshold as soon as possible
15712s spend the points now you don't know if
15716s you're going to game eight or not
15718s especially with how aggressive these
15720s games have been that is the trend we
15722s have seen coming through it has been
15724s nothing but aggression to the point that
15726s it l last game looked like a match in
15728s 2022 EU like it was nothing but Zone
15732s fights left right right in center in
15733s that mid game so de G spending the
15736s points I think making good decisions I'm
15738s I'm with you on this I I think they are
15740s doing exactly what they need to do to
15743s try to find that win yeah absolutely and
15745s that's that's kind of had an issue with
15747s what wolves did there wolves didn't have
15750s to go for the zon they could have gone
15751s for the sand siphon like we know they're
15754s very good at the sand siphon team that's
15756s one of wolves's best picks it would have
15759s only cost them one point and that one
15761s point could have jumped into the top end
15763s of the table that one point could have
15765s closed the gap between them so then they
15767s were looking at getting Match Point by
15769s the end of game five and then looking to
15771s close out on game six but now they've
15773s slowed themselves they staged themselves
15775s so they need to do a lot of work with
15777s this third party team now I'm not going
15779s to say it's a bad comp at all it's just
15781s not one of their top comps however
15784s there's been a lot of action these
15787s Skirmish comps are very good in that for
15789s multiple shter reasons if you are
15790s fighting loads of teams no one's going
15792s to Chase your Wu and force out because
15794s they're too busy dealing with each other
15796s you have a lot of crowd control you have
15797s a lot of third party the Tessa being
15799s able to charge your ultimate look at
15801s this hot Drop by the way and that hot
15803s Drop is exactly why I think they've gone
15805s for this especially with the wuen having
15808s his teleport on his F now and not his
15811s ultimate yeah this is absolutely crazy
15814s the number of teams dropping here in
15815s imperion uh of course you do have the
15818s quote unquote puzzle here where you as a
15820s team need to get enough kills together
15822s so you can go in and you can get that uh
15825s red long sword that extreme Rarity long
15827s sword to actually give your team a
15829s little bit of buff uh and that's exactly
15831s what it looks like those teams are going
15832s to be doing but we are cut over to jdg
15834s here the winner of last game as they
15836s immediately win a fight against wbg and
15839s just shut them down three eliminations
15841s their name already Alliance over here as
15843s well onto the members of ug they're
15845s going to come in and clean up three
15847s eliminations for themselves right off
15849s the rip here Alliance already off to a
15851s good start here at this a crazy hot Drop
15854s here inside imperion we're going to see
15856s the moon Bane coming through as well
15858s this has been a tactic we've seen
15859s Alliance used all season where they get
15863s the immediate money and rather than use
15865s it to try to roll random to go ahead and
15867s get that Moon Bane so that they can come
15870s in and press an early lead that they've
15872s already made for themselves team GG here
15874s trading blows with the likes of Team k k
15876s going to need a really good game for
15878s themselves here as they are all the way
15879s down on the bottom of the leaderboard
15881s that last game was extremely rough for
15883s them and unfortunately qgg just caught
15885s out in a Tesa no place to go here just
15887s going to get very much ripped through
15889s here by lxm as the rest of GG turns onto
15892s the remaining members of K and they very
15894s quickly follow suit GG finally getting
15898s thems a nice little drop them for
15900s themselves as uh we can see Alliance now
15902s looking for wolves here Alliance a
15904s little bit undergeared comparatively do
15906s have those purple nun checks though to
15908s work with is ny7 going to throw down the
15910s ultimate look to lock down these wolves
15912s members zk's trying to make a break for
15914s it does look like my7 unfortunately
15916s wasn't able to really get much off but
15918s does get tested Charmed Z tries to get
15921s onto ny7 can't actually catch him for
15923s the moment in comes
15926s nhq now the rest of Alliance are going
15928s to come in and try and save today zk's
15929s been able to SEC the kill though and
15930s suddenly Alliance actually find in a bit
15932s of trouble they throw down on the Bain
15934s bra as a opportunity to buy some space
15936s for themselves here but it's that dinel
15938s weal about revenge with the Twan Parry
15942s Zim go down and revenge finds his
15945s revenge trying to keep his teammate
15947s alive Yuma holds fast ZK is the only one
15951s standing for wolves and they crumble on
15953s drop yet again Alliance continue their
15957s spree six kills in at the early game
15961s yeah Alliance a huge start for them here
15964s and this Baines breath paying dividends
15967s here because if you notice it separates
15969s wolves right they're a little afraid to
15972s take the commit there and kill you see
15974s the huge double Parry coming in from the
15977s side of Alliance completely flipping
15979s that fight on its head as they go to six
15981s eliminations money well spent for team
15984s Alliance there as just the the risk of
15988s the Bane coming in puts wolves on the
15990s back foot and like you said wolves yet
15992s another hot Drop early where they go
15996s down and they're going to be forced to
15997s go out find some loot for themselves and
16000s unfortunately this isn't a great team
16003s comp for them to head into the realm of
16004s Yang they are realistically going to
16007s have to look for some good clean third
16009s parties if they have any hope of making
16011s anything happen Alliance here will spot
16013s out team
16014s GG now with 48 seconds left remaining
16017s before Zone one even claps Alliance
16019s still has their resurrections they can
16021s afford to take this fight that is a
16023s triple oh onto team GG from the Testa
16027s they're not going to be able to get away
16028s from the rest of Alliance is going to be
16029s able to break away from it they clean up
16032s on to DJs here oh my goodness Alliance
16035s goes to seven eliminations already they
16038s are 5.7 points away from Match Point
16041s threshold here as they continue to keep
16044s the pressure up CJs caught out yet again
16047s GG trying to come in lxm with the
16049s ultimate not going to connect onto
16050s anybody the Tessa old going to come
16052s through onto lxm lxm trying to break
16055s back but now with the risk of the Viper
16057s old coming in will get double stunned
16058s old out here alexm just going to
16060s disappear from the map all together GG's
16063s 330 trying to make something happen but
16065s going to get locked down Miss times the
16066s Parry yet again Alliance all three
16068s members on to 330 here not going to miss
16070s the opportunity to clean up their ninth
16073s elimination before zone two Alliance
16077s still has resurrections as slow Zone one
16081s collapses down they're going to be able
16082s to look to pressure yet another
16086s fight they are so on fire right now
16089s Alliance something just awoken them
16093s looking absolutely amazing
16095s zdi grabs on wait is that the is that a
16099s different vower
16100s roll it is isn't it that's s the V1
16103s isn't
16104s it uh I'm I I didn't quite catch the old
16108s Standing On Top of the the uh the pillar
16111s yeah then be V1 coming in yep
16114s interesting interesting this side to go
16116s for the V1 over uh the V2 which is what
16119s everyone else is running well if you can
16121s catch out two people with is just a free
16123s double slam for the monk it is a
16125s highrisk high reward composition uh you
16129s you have to look to land that Vault to
16130s V1 if you don't you've got to be very
16132s careful about how you stack your old
16134s post fat uh you do not want to monk up
16137s and risk giving it away there you've got
16138s to kind of play around what's left of
16140s the VA the V1 ult there uh and kind of
16142s hope for the best if you will uh so it's
16145s highrisk high reward but if you're able
16146s to land it you guarantee the double grab
16148s it is absolutely huge for them uh the
16151s reason you didn't see that happened a
16153s lot before uh was because you were just
16154s able to as an enemy team grapple the
16157s player out of the vda ultimate and
16159s guarantee that the monk couldn't get it
16160s but now that you can't be grappled out
16162s of those and you have to deal damage you
16164s kind of have to commit to the fight to
16166s keep the monk from getting the double
16167s grab if they do land the V1 from that
16169s wave still not something I would agree
16171s with seeing but B right now trying to
16173s tear things up as the third party comes
16175s through here uh from Team K onto them
16178s and wbg bada looking to break away right
16181s now they have not lost a member yet as
16183s wbg does K really wants to make
16185s something happen here they're going to
16187s catch out bazu and they are just going
16189s to dog them down they are not going to
16191s let this elimination get away from them
16193s K8 will find uh their first second
16196s elimination of the game here one onto
16199s bada and one onto wbg this is a good
16203s clean third party from them uh even
16205s though they're playing the zeen comp
16207s they are so far behind in gear they need
16209s every kill that they can get I'm just
16212s having a look at the scoreboard and drg
16214s being down two players is incredibly
16217s rough for
16218s them they've been you know pretty decent
16221s today drg I've had a lot of respect for
16223s them they've they've really shown up but
16225s this game hasn't gone exactly to land
16229s here there
16231s Yuma heading in I think they're going to
16234s be setting up for the Roma Yang which be
16236s spawning up soon I believe it was ewg
16239s who I saw running around with a vul
16241s Essence earlier or was it jdg it might
16244s have been jdg actually with
16247s it I all I know is one of those two
16249s teams is running around with the vulpine
16251s essence I'm going to make the Assumption
16253s it's not ewg uh I think it's
16256s jdg and if they go into ARA Yang we saw
16260s actually it was jdg who did it earlier
16261s today as well I believe with the vulpine
16264s essence
16265s and the it it's not like a guaranteed
16268s win in Aroma Yang but it's as close to a
16271s guaranteed win as you you can get right
16273s like as close as it can be
16278s fair oh
16280s wolves oh Yuma actually getting pared
16283s here is able to pick up his uhana
16286s another Parry coming in hold on double
16289s Parry from Yuma so clean here with the
16291s wuen port out as well a very easy reset
16294s back into this fight wolves not in a
16297s good position both of the way Alliance
16299s is setting this fight up for themselves
16301s going sky here they see an opportunity
16303s to clutch in and look for more
16306s eliminations here as we are going to see
16308s they are going to come over and again
16310s this is really smart given the
16311s composition that Alliance is playing
16313s they don't really need to try to force a
16314s realm of Yang here it's actually better
16316s for them to go outside and fight for
16318s that Spirit well and sure enough that's
16320s exactly what they're doing but speaking
16321s of Realm Yang we're go over to jdg
16322s versus JL inside that realm of Yang Jing
16326s here going to get the clean plank here
16328s off onto vbv going to find a couple uh
16331s slices of damage there but too much they
16332s are going to find a huge R&B into one
16335s Fang here Fang though going to pop that
16337s ultimate looking to land some clean
16340s grabs out here not going to be able to
16341s find them as we do see the hottie
16343s causing a little bit of chaos Jin still
16345s with ultimate in the back pocket here
16346s going to cube up to get away here able
16348s to avoid the grab jet again onto the
16350s backside here now going to having waited
16353s out pop that monk ult looking to turn
16355s around but will get caught out by Fong
16357s going to take a lot of damage trying to
16359s get top side onto this pillar
16361s unfortunately doesn't find it will find
16362s this pillar though now just needs to set
16364s up some clean double grabs here from
16366s their teammates as well misses the
16368s opportunity to get the grab onto Fang
16370s there as the de comes in now the rest of
16373s the team here JL just trying to get
16375s behind these pillars they need to
16377s coordinate jdg here needs to force some
16379s of these people away but unfortunately
16381s that 's going to end very quickly and
16383s jdg looks to yet again here be giving
16386s away a realm of Yang I mean they had
16389s such a good clean position there the
16391s rest of JD G just needed to coordinate
16393s with their monk so that they could get
16395s those players out from behind the
16396s pillars that is not what happens JL here
16398s that will lose vbv jdg down a member as
16401s well though into the 2v2 trying to make
16403s something happen the bubbles come
16405s through but it's not going to be enough
16406s as Fong finds it yet again here and sure
16407s enough they will clean up K there from
16410s jdg jdg down to two members here into
16414s the 2v2 though they were able to get one
16417s Resurrection up while these fights were
16419s going on Fong though here with a very
16421s clean fist blades here using that
16423s movement to get around the battlefield
16425s here the ult going to be in invested
16427s here by two tick unfortunately it is
16429s just going to time out for both of these
16432s teams JL were denied the Vault Point
16435s Essence popped and they didn't finish
16437s the monk up in time and that was what
16439s slowed them down it was very very close
16442s Alliance going to grabs this uh Soul uh
16447s Soul Spirit Well there we go got the
16449s name of it for a second there so many
16451s souls and Spirits in in this game
16452s sometimes it get I get confused on which
16454s one's which but that's going to be the
16456s Draco storm onto Alliance they're going
16457s to be looking to be very aggressive they
16459s know there's going to be a bunch of
16460s birds M teams who are just going to go
16462s completely Hammer each other so they're
16464s just going to wait a little bit let them
16466s get each other low let them burst their
16467s ultimate and then just slide in and tidy
16469s it up and Alliance are
16473s so so close to that 65 points it is all
16477s to play for for them and honestly once
16480s they get those 65 points
16483s like beyond that their position actually
16485s doesn't matter like as long as they 65
16488s points they can go out immediately and
16490s they are four points away they don't
16492s need an MVP here has to be the next game
16494s so they can take their time and
16497s just get ready for that game but they
16500s still got to make it fully work in their
16502s favor as jdg coming in oh ewg spawn on
16505s top of them it's just G an instant scrap
16507s off spawn I think Jing ultimate
16510s available to him he's going to hold that
16511s for a brief second and uh run away he's
16514s going to run away he's got to pop a pot
16516s and then he's going to run back into the
16517s fight still got plenty of time on this
16520s one Kiki going a little bit low lost
16522s half their armor actually say that looks
16525s like they're looking to turn onto one of
16527s the
16528s players on
16530s ewg there are five teams with r Yang
16533s debuff in this game due to that Lobby
16536s that fight versus J and jdg so it is
16538s really all the play for you plac as well
16541s Jin's going to go for the transform and
16543s I think WG are just going to scatter I
16545s say that but cookie is going to get
16547s taken from the cookie jar slam back he
16550s wants another cookie he's able to get
16552s him into the title as well from the
16554s valer slap together down goes cookie
16557s smash that one in comes to the next grab
16560s beautiful work here from Jing he is
16562s going to secure the kill for his team as
16564s well the problem is is I think they're
16566s getting third parted I think another
16568s team showing up yeah it's ug who also
16570s had the reming yang debuff this be so
16572s bad for jdg they've used their ultimates
16574s the bubbles are thrown down but OG they
16577s do not care the king is sitting in the
16579s pocket a jing can't move he's locked
16582s against the Rocks he's pared and he is
16584s down a spiteful poison Splash splashes
16588s in the faces of ug but they've been able
16590s to cleanse one of their players they
16593s want to find the others they want to
16594s find the scraps ewg xji is now next up
16598s on the menu for the members of UG and
16600s just like last game Run it is fighting
16603s in the zone that is the only way to play
16605s arer apparently XJ goes down and that is
16609s another kill for OG and another member
16612s cleansed yeah absolutely crazy going on
16616s right now wolves here who abandoned the
16618s fight earlier with Team Alliance now in
16620s fight here with Team JL JL needs this
16623s opportunity to cleanse that Yang
16625s depletion from themselves wo putting in
16628s work as txj goes extremely low Fang
16630s forced to back away here yet again as we
16633s see time and time again those SS coming
16634s through working for them but
16635s unfortunately uh the lack of ss here the
16638s only player with an old here being Fong
16640s trying to create some pressure here onto
16641s team wolves now on to team Alliance but
16643s Yuma going to get stunned out here as we
16646s see Fong also caught out by the Tesa
16648s another huge Tesla ultimate coming in
16650s from the side of Team Alliance as they
16652s decide to break away from this
16654s engagement and JL just desperate for
16656s anything they can get their hands on
16658s Fall going to get sent into the Zone
16659s here by KLA forced to burn that ultimate
16662s now as he looks to step forward and get
16664s away from this unfortunately he kind of
16666s has to take this fight he's completely
16668s separated from the rest of his team with
16671s the members of K on him 25 seconds left
16674s remaining he's able to get one grab oh
16676s my goodness there's no place to go as
16678s the repeating crossbows come out oh they
16681s just get shredded in the zone but it's
16683s Alliance Yuma who picks up the
16685s elimination with the musket goes to 10
16688s elimination
16690s 62.8 Alliance so close to going over the
16694s threshold Alliance picks up another
16696s member with the musk this time on to K
16698s 17 they go to 11
16700s 63.8 they need 1.2 points to move across
16705s that qualification threshold as team
16708s Alliance yet again continues to dominate
16711s another game Jake they call him Wesley
16714s Snipes cuz he does not miss just keeps
16716s Landing those shots with the
16718s musket absolutely beautiful from
16721s Alliance I saw you laughing on my other
16723s screen by the way I'm glad that got you
16725s Alliance popping off right now two
16729s points well 1.2 points away from making
16733s it to that match put MVP that
16735s eligibility and the next game is all
16738s they need to do and right now this is
16740s the first game where I don't think the
16742s scores have been overly tight I mean you
16744s got X1 on eight kills and he got six
16746s kills onto jdg but other than that like
16749s everyone else is actually relatively low
16750s scoring it really is just the alliance
16752s pop off this
16754s game yeah wolves here one elimination or
16757s their Bel just struggling to stay alive
16760s much less put any points on the board
16761s this
16763s game yeah that oh X1 no they're not
16767s going right no they're trying to give
16769s Chase to team wolves here but Alliance
16771s also there wolves about to get
16773s sandwiched potentially between these two
16775s teams luckily for teams W team wolves
16777s they are here in imperion they have a
16779s really good opportunity to kind of break
16781s away from this positioning uh if they
16784s can get away but woles going to be
16785s caught out by X1 Alliance breaking away
16788s though GG waiting in the wings as well
16790s for the third party wolves NQ just
16792s getting put in the blender here trying
16794s to step away from this trying to utilize
16797s the stone form there uh that stone form
16799s not going to save them from the zy those
16801s x1's xly y picks up an elimination there
16804s and wolves go back to two members yet
16806s again as bah turning here onto the
16808s members of ug ug jinu coming in with
16811s that that P sword putting in work onto
16813s yon as we're going to see the hottie
16815s come through and start to dip into this
16818s Kumi ultimate to deal damage onto the
16820s members of Team B Uchi going to step
16823s away from that Kumi ultimate they know
16825s Yan has the ultimate up as well they
16827s want to leave Bala and let some of these
16830s other teams come to deal with it balah
16832s though has their sights on a member of
16834s OG xinu is going to make the sacrifice
16836s play here uh for the members of ug but
16839s jdg comes in for the third party GNA
16842s catch out SS from UG and they're trying
16844s to run this in to bada they want to get
16848s them away but it looks like bada off in
16850s the distance going to pick up another
16851s member of ug SS is going to go down bah
16854s becomes the target here for team jdg as
16857s the single nope ug does go down I was
16860s going to say a single member slips away
16862s but then we see them get eliminated here
16863s it's just jdg versus bada jdg with their
16867s ultimate still available so bada and a
16869s little bit of a pickle here as GG going
16871s to up that Valiant challenge to give
16873s them a little bit of situational
16875s awareness still holding on holding out
16877s hope for a good game as they currently
16879s sit at three eliminations on their blind
16881s 8 comp you can see wolves able to pick
16884s up one player which is uh oh no don't
16887s worry Zen went down okay wolves might
16891s okay they buy a second re oh no they
16893s used the rebirth charm okay now they got
16895s to get their Viper up and then they're
16898s back at full force but like the problem
16900s with Wolves right now is exactly what
16902s you were talking about earlier with them
16903s is like they they hit this comp which
16905s needs to kind of do stuff in the mid
16908s game and they haven't actually achieved
16910s anything with it they got one kill I I
16914s kind of just wish they looked in the
16915s sand tyen for the end game and then
16916s popped off there but they didn't want to
16919s spend the hero points this time around
16920s and they ultimately pay the price for it
16923s but it's going to leave us with 23
16926s players left at 11 minutes last game we
16927s actually had a lot less players it was a
16929s complete blood buff around we actually
16932s got a fair amount of people left in this
16933s final Circle well I know we're not even
16936s at the final Circle yet but in this late
16938s game
16939s now it's going to be a big one to play
16941s for is X1 another team we were actually
16944s popping off we've been very focused on
16946s Alliance just because how close they are
16947s to that match point eligibility but X1
16949s are actually having a very good game and
16952s they've kind of quietly been doing well
16953s all day to be honest like not as well as
16956s our top top teams but like they've been
16958s having a pretty decent day
16963s that crossbow is unbelievably annoying
16966s the chicken crossbow the rubber chicken
16970s crossbow whose idea was
16973s that Alliance just holding down onto
16976s this low ground for the moment see J
16977s gtic actually has uh just used the cube
16981s but he's going to get Charmed up Al's
16982s actually getting knock back will take
16984s some damage but nothing too major
16987s Oh I thought that was ny7 I thought he
16990s did it again he did didn't actually SEC
16993s Kure by X1 but now they turn their
16995s attention towards Kiki and Jing Alliance
16998s just being so aggressive they've caught
17001s Jing against the wall they're letting
17003s him they're not letting him break away
17005s actually going for a transform because
17006s he just doesn't have any way to escape
17008s now like chasing onto Alliance but as
17011s wimble's coming out revenge is making
17013s sure that Jin canot do anything on this
17015s monk two TI timing out he's going to
17017s lose his transform and now Alliance will
17020s just collapse on top of them we see
17022s wolves get knocked out in the middle of
17024s it X1 gets hit couple of people do get
17026s hit by the charm there Jing he's going
17028s to be up on the menu the bell comes out
17030s and in comes the burst Alliance want to
17032s finalize this kill but Jing is doing a
17034s great job of evading them for now for
17036s the three members continue to pound onto
17038s him and down he goes not yet the snipe
17042s can it come in GG secures the kill they
17045s deny Alliance they are so close to that
17049s El eligibility point they are so close
17052s they can taste
17054s it yeah they've got to be very very
17056s careful at this point they just need to
17058s out survive uh another team and make
17061s something happen here for themselves
17063s even one elimination but they burn two
17065s ultimates in the middle of that fight
17067s they need to be very very careful uh
17069s about how they continue to go forward
17071s here again one elimination is all that
17073s separates them uh from being on that
17075s match point they've got to play the rest
17076s of this game out very very strategically
17079s X1 on to 10 elimination now GG finally
17082s picking up their fourth elimination
17084s there keeping Alliance from going to
17086s match point but it is still anybody's
17089s game it's a very tight game as K shows
17091s up on team Alliance and Alliance down to
17093s the one ultimate here on N7 trying to
17096s play very carefully here cxe actually
17098s going to get caught out in a fairly poor
17100s position but the Matari ult going to buy
17102s them protection going to completely
17104s negate the one ult that Alliance does
17106s have online they have got to play this
17108s so well Revenge goes down this could be
17111s terrible for Alliance they just need one
17114s elimination they need to find it on to
17116s anybody here can they make it happen the
17119s staff going to come in from K 17 doing a
17122s ton of damage ny7 just trying to keep it
17125s alive there it is KLA they just need the
17127s one hit there it is they will go to
17130s match point oh my goodness even if
17132s Alliance goes out here they can breathe
17135s aigh of relief heading into the next
17137s game Alliance 12 kills on Unfortunately
17142s they are down to one member left
17144s remaining you mod they will not be able
17145s to find MVP for this game but crucially
17148s they are on to match point oh that is so
17152s relieving for them because I I feel if
17155s they had gone out without that match
17157s point there would be some super tilt
17160s coming into the next game they would
17161s have been really on edge they would have
17163s been really worked up and then that's
17164s when team start to crumble they clutched
17167s it in the last possible moment they can
17168s now breathe they can now calm down they
17171s have s minutes left on this game just to
17173s relax and realistically no one's
17176s catching up to him the closest person to
17178s them right now in the game left is GG gg
17181s I statistically can't get enough points
17185s in this game I I pretty sure it's
17187s impossible for them to get to 65 maybe
17191s if they kill everyone in the lobby I
17192s know cuz it's part that 12 them I don't
17195s if they can do it so Alliance are going
17197s to be comfortable going in knowing going
17199s into game five they're the only team
17201s that can win the day X1 hunting away
17205s here X1 10 kills in so they're having a
17206s good day well good game themselves
17209s looking to kind of catch up to some of
17211s those top teams and uh uproot the the
17214s standings and realistically if this game
17216s goes well enough for X1 they could
17217s actually usur OG's position uh or GG's
17221s position depending on how GG fair for
17223s the rest of this game there is a
17226s position where they this could just be
17228s massive for X1 they can get themselves
17229s really in the running and sort was
17231s saying earlier every game has
17233s dramatically changed the scoreboard like
17235s the standings and everything is just so
17236s different after every
17238s game yeah it's been an insane day four
17241s teams left remaining here in game number
17244s four Alliance climbs to match point no
17248s other team going to be able to make that
17250s happen if Alliance can find an MVP after
17253s this this is going to be it Alliance
17255s will find their first ever season
17259s Championship the question is is Will
17261s will they be able to make it happen
17262s without getting sniped out of the lobby
17265s they have been absolutely on fire they
17268s have taken every fight that's come their
17269s way today with no fear whatsoever so I
17273s don't see Alliance slowing down anytime
17275s soon Jake we are however going to hit a
17277s bit of a Buccaneer phase cuz we do have
17279s some monks left alive uh in this Lobby
17282s uh we are heading into that late game
17284s that final late game Ban's breath on the
17286s map right now uh it is going to be a
17288s spirit well with a draco storm buff
17290s coming in and GG wants to fight for it
17292s and with the Transformer comp they're
17294s going to be in a strong position to be
17295s able to do so they can afford to spend
17297s some ultimates here to fight for this
17298s Tess going to be invested on the side of
17301s I do believe bada going to hit some of
17303s the members here of X1 X1 going to be
17305s coming in popping that monkey
17307s transformation as well looking to evict
17309s some of these other teams they decide
17311s it's worth investing the ultimate to
17313s come in and make something happen GG
17315s coming back in with that Viper comp oh
17317s no the Viper gets waved out this is the
17320s power of the V1 by the way one of the
17322s only Heroes that can actually pull viper
17324s out of that ultimate so it actually
17326s keeps the counter from the monk from
17329s being able to come in and be landed lyd
17332s being forced away here so much range
17334s damage comes through he's got to come
17335s out of the ultimate but he actually dies
17337s before he comes out this is disastrous
17340s uh for the members of A1 as they lose
17343s one of their crucial members they lose
17344s their ultimates and they lose the spirit
17347s well so they will not be able to get
17348s those ultimates back online now it's
17350s Bala and GG trading blows as well as drg
17353s as everybody scrambles to try to pick up
17356s this loot get this Draco storm and take
17358s it into the late game well di have been
17361s very quiet this game only three kills
17363s under their belt and Don looking to
17365s change that Chain's already thrown down
17368s Baler not willing to give it up though
17369s they have the ultimate from their karumi
17371s to make sure dong ching doesn't go too
17373s low here everybody's committing Al
17376s everybody is wanting this Spirit Well
17378s the gear load out is going to be so
17380s impactful getting weapons onto Don is
17382s going to be huge as the Dome pop but no
17384s one still fully controls it so R
17386s projectiles now going to be reing in
17388s Tess timate through three members of drg
17391s they're going to find themselves getting
17392s caught out donq doesn't touch the ear in
17394s time GG can't capitalize on it though F
17397s comes in slamming into Bower dony loses
17400s all of his armor and most of his health
17402s as well Bower's just going to put the
17403s pressure in he's being juggled in the
17405s sky down he goes Bower continue to
17408s pressure now onto this Spirit Well X1 re
17411s jumping back in X1 down a player as well
17414s still feeling comfortable to try and
17416s contest this GG themselves all three
17418s players standing but they don't have
17420s that many ultimates to work with B
17422s continue to control over this area they
17424s are desperate to secure this Spirit Well
17429s Draco storm could be the difference
17430s between winning or losing the lobby
17433s Bower seven kills they really need to
17436s get some more to win this day to win
17439s this game as well
17442s as it looks like the contest for the
17443s spirit world's actually coming to an end
17445s bow should be able to pick it up
17446s although the Zone's closing in on the
17448s area there it is it pops Draco storm in
17451s the pocket of bower and this is their
17453s opportunity to pop off and take some
17454s people down already X1 zdi is going to
17458s be the first victim of their ra Kakashi
17461s clinging to the Rocks playing it chill
17464s as is not many players left in the lobby
17467s room yeah no not at all 10 players left
17470s remaining alive here X1 uh down to a
17473s single player keeping themselves alive
17476s here trying to just make the most out of
17478s the 10 points they've been able to
17480s scrape together for themselves GG on the
17483s bottom just trying to keep the liks of
17485s Val from coming down and doing anything
17488s to them or TRG but they are all sitting
17491s here with cannons just throwing blows
17493s left and right Bas you going to go ahead
17495s and come down to the bottom here will
17496s get caught out by a Tessa ultimate look
17498s at that clean surf to the side just to
17500s get away and reposition to a stronger
17502s position for them as the rest of out
17504s starts to come down onto the members of
17505s GG and master Perry coming in from the
17507s side of GG Wen Port just up to the very
17510s top here on the edge GG's 330 trying to
17512s keep his game alive but he gets knocked
17513s into the Zone Cannon shot comes through
17515s from B to clean up 330 B da up to nine
17519s eliminations looking for that first
17520s place finish yon with the ultimate that
17523s Draco Storm still here for 43 seconds as
17526s they continue to apply pressure to both
17528s of these teams X1 still holding on for
17531s your life with one player left remaining
17533s alive GG down to two players drg still
17536s holding on to three just trying to make
17540s the most of the situation the can D
17541s quing will pick up an elimination here
17543s for the likes of drg as they go to four
17545s now drg D que looking to set up and turn
17548s things on to bow do this could be a
17550s disaster there's a world where Alliance
17552s still walks away the MVP here they need
17554s to eliminate X1 as soon as possible for
17557s that to happen but X1 holding on for
17559s dear life might
17561s clutch this out here drg trying to make
17563s something happen GG's lxm the last
17565s remaining member of GG as this continues
17568s to go towards time GG's lxm looking for
17572s anything trying to Grapple with the bow
17573s shots we'll get reg grappled out of the
17575s sky here the followup there from drg's
17577s Kakashi lxm trying to go for the
17579s Tactical nuke here onto everybody will
17581s get a little bit of something but it's
17582s just going to get clutched out here as
17585s drg comes in this is all she wrote
17588s ladies and gentlemen oh my good wait B
17592s comes out of nowhere where did he come
17595s from I don't know who I I don't know who
17598s won that in the
17600s end it's got to be bow
17602s off that first place the multiplier is
17605s going to give them enough to go over
17607s team alliance's 12 elimination game
17610s absolutely huge I thought bow was gone
17613s he comes out of nowhere I thought battle
17615s not that ages ago that is insane by
17618s battle really well played wow
17622s and I've been critical about it today I
17624s mean the double white tigers thing was
17626s unforgivable but they have pulled it
17628s back here in this game finally get
17630s himself a win they've been very
17632s underwhelming today and it's the third
17635s team to well to win the third by-weekly
17638s actually the second team of the split to
17639s win a by-weekly won the third by-weekly
17642s expectations are on them to perform and
17644s they they've been sitting and kind of
17646s circling the drain at the bottom of the
17647s pack for a while so win here is a
17650s massive confidence boost but all eyes
17652s are not on Battle right now there those
17655s boys in black and green
17657s Alliance have made it to match point now
17662s if they MVP this next game that is the
17665s day done that is the season done for
17670s everyone yeah expect to have a lot of
17673s attention put on them going forwards
17675s yeah absolutely if if you know
17676s alliance's habits right now you looking
17679s to Hot Drop on them get those early
17681s resurrections out of the game keep them
17684s from making anything happen because
17686s Alliance look at how close they've been
17688s to even when they get knocked out early
17689s they've been so aggressive and put so
17691s many points on the board it is still up
17693s for debate whether they walk away with
17695s MVP or not up to the very last seconds
17698s of each of these games but we got a
17699s quick question for you guys what's not
17701s up for debate is your opportunity to win
17702s one of these Summers s split random gift
17704s box which hero did Alliance ny7 using
17706s game four is it a hottie is it B Tessa C
17709s wuen or D fper
17712s in it should that's actually a
17715s relatively hard question to be honest
17718s that is I'll give it to you guys if you
17720s can get this one I'll be impressed ABC D
17722s ABC or D int chat box that's where you
17725s get all your goodies and all your
17726s present here are the points right now
17729s Alliance are on Match Point eligibility
17732s and the rest of the lobby have some work
17735s to do 13 points for jdg 17 points for OG
17738s 18 for GG like
17741s a lot of these guys have got some
17742s serious work to do wol who started the
17745s day a 31 points off Match Point
17748s eligibility they are in first selection
17752s they at the bottom of the table right
17754s now that is heartbreaking for wolves
17757s that really is cuz they were good on the
17759s uh on the pre-finals they they set
17761s themselves up really nicely for for
17763s today and I I don't want to be that guy
17766s but in true wolves faction they kind of
17768s fumble it you know they they had it and
17771s and it's it's a bit sad to see because
17773s they're such a good team but a
17775s disappointing performance so far has
17777s costed them a day they they've become
17779s the opposite of old J team where old J
17782s team wouldn't perform during the regular
17783s by-weekly and then come in and crush it
17785s in the finals now wolves performing
17787s during all the bi-weeks coming into the
17788s finals and absolutely fumbling the ball
17791s just inches from the Finish Line uh but
17794s team Alliance here absolutely cooking
17797s today and again this is going to come
17799s down to be fair to wolves we all doubted
17803s JT pretty much every time because these
17805s guys are trash and then they'd pop off
17807s but like wolves we we trust we we
17809s believe in wolves there's a lot of Faith
17811s with the entire Caster team but like
17814s wolves are a really top team there's no
17816s denial of that so I'll give them that
17818s I'll give them that you are correct
17819s though on every other front but I will
17820s give them that here's the points after
17823s that last game yeah look at look at how
17826s this plays out by the way if if X1 goes
17828s out one position sooner
17830s is above them if if B for whatever
17834s reason didn't come off the top rope out
17836s of
17837s nowhere this game goes to Alliance as an
17840s MVP but this has been every game today
17842s right even the games that Alliance has
17844s not won it is until the very last second
17847s been a question of whether they're going
17848s to take MVP or not based off their early
17851s game performance that is the performance
17853s that they're going to be bringing into
17854s next game into game number five and that
17856s is
17858s scary I mean b didn't that many kills
17861s but your R did a lot of damage damage
17863s that they they were getting kill stolen
17866s a lot that's what that tells me because
17868s 35,000 damage and only four kills on or
17872s on character but obviously you know more
17874s than that total that
17876s is really really impressive as bow they
17879s were I believe where were they before
17882s this they were like 11 for 10th right
17886s yeah and theyve jumped up to seventh so
17887s they've done really really well forsel
17889s off there wolves on it's it's bad it's
17892s getting real bad there's probably
17894s concerns right now but Alliance
17896s obviously in that spot and everyone else
17899s we talk about how close things are but
17901s honestly it is Alliance and then the
17903s rest everyone else is very far behind
17905s Alliance right now yeah there's actually
17908s a world where if Alliance doesn't take
17909s the MVP in game number five we go to
17912s game number six with Alliance still
17914s being the only team over Match Point
17916s threshold like jdg would have to Fumble
17919s the ball pretty hard but the rest of the
17920s teams if they put up an average to
17922s middling game it very easily just
17925s becomes Alliance still on Match Point
17927s threshold if you ignore game three look
17930s at JD G's scores for the rest of the
17931s game it's seven it's six it's five like
17934s it's actually quite low scoring from jdg
17936s they had one massive pop off game and
17939s other than that their like average is
17941s actually under 10 so I I genuinely agree
17944s I think it's a very real possibility
17946s that if Alliance don't take it here
17948s they'll have another shot at the title
17949s on their own without being contested by
17952s everyone else now I'll be interested to
17954s see who actually wants to like drop on
17957s our because typically you know one that
17960s has not gone well for anybody today yeah
17962s one team swallows that bullet but at the
17964s same time it's like you might just be
17966s handing them the gun like you might just
17968s be giving them the snowball start they
17971s needed because Alliance are they are
17974s consistently good in the early game
17976s consistently good in the mid game and
17978s consistently good in the end game I mean
17980s they've only been able to take a single
17982s MVP performance so maybe you could argue
17985s their late game needs a bit of work but
17987s their early and mid is terrifying right
17991s now yeah it it's absolutely crazy here's
17994s X1 in the end here man this is crazy I
17996s just Peak comes out of nowhere it's just
17999s cling to a rock look at this I had no
18001s idea Peak was even up here from the
18003s angle that we were casting and just
18005s comes in and cleans it all up like he
18007s like he's like uh Peter is um in Hunger
18012s Games it's just like he's like just a
18014s face in the Rock just holding it out
18017s while everyone's
18018s fighting huge performance though coming
18020s in from uran on the Z 35,000 damage four
18025s kills 13,000 damage with a cannon
18029s damn that was slaming with the cannon he
18031s didn't even have oh he did have Ro or
18033s bir that's why there you go as soon as
18035s you see that you're like oh that's why
18036s they did so much damage to the Canon cuz
18037s they got most broken soul in the game
18040s make it a legendary one and then I'll
18042s I'll be okay with it it is not okay that
18044s this is a purple just just swap it in
18047s meteor right make meteor purple or and
18051s Burn yeah I is meteor is poo man
18057s like you know when these used to be two
18059s separate soul jads I think it was fine
18062s um yeah totally agree on that them being
18064s combined now is absolutely crazy
18067s deserves to be the stack of legendary
18069s cuz it is it is trios we must have soul
18072s Jade across the board uh for your team
18075s to have that Cannon to be able to get
18077s that Splash damage to put the burn tick
18079s on to people to be able to deny them the
18081s extra healing and most importantly to be
18083s able to build that rage meter so quickly
18086s so you can get those ultimates online
18088s especially in these final Zone
18089s situations so that you can be there for
18091s the heal off you can be there for those
18093s final moments for your team and make
18096s things happen like such such a strong
18098s Soul J you're not going to hear me argue
18099s that point uh whatsoever um but this has
18102s been this has been a crazy day I really
18104s feel like this has been the day of
18106s Alliance and again I think we could
18108s easily if we go to game six see Alliance
18112s having another shot at the title without
18114s anybody being there you know know what
18116s I'm saying right now Alliance is going
18118s to this next game they they've got their
18120s big championship belt on but nobody's
18122s stepping into the ring with them the the
18124s rest of these guys are just trying to
18125s knock them out of the lobby and keep
18127s them from having a good game but again I
18129s I have to look at their performances
18131s throughout the rest of the day today
18132s even though they've only walked away
18133s with one MVP they have literally been
18136s within spitting distance every single
18139s game even after being eliminated early
18142s this last game all that needed to happen
18144s was uh X1 needed to go out one
18147s elimination in terms of teams earlier
18150s and Bala if they got eliminated when we
18152s thought they got eliminated that was it
18154s Alliance just gets another MVP here I
18156s mean it doesn't get them the
18158s championship right cuz this is the game
18159s that they do go over Match Point
18161s threshold but that's how close it's been
18163s every single game for this team like you
18166s said there is a big Catch 22
18168s double-edged sword uh for these teams to
18171s decide right now CU if you're the team
18174s dropping on team Alliance and you lose
18176s that fight the rest of the lobby is
18178s going to be looking at you and going
18180s when they win this it's your fault yes
18183s absolutely
18185s it's oh man I'm just so excited getting
18187s into this game I just want to see I want
18189s to see the Harris
18190s I'm really interested and I feel we will
18193s know what alliance's game plan is once
18196s we get to Hero select because if they
18199s just blow their points on like the best
18202s comp they can get their hands on then
18203s you know they're going for break I mean
18205s like why would they not be going for the
18206s win here like it'd be really weird for
18208s them just be like ah we'll wait another
18209s game and then pop off we'll see what the
18211s lobby we'll see how the weather is in
18212s the next game I me see if we like it
18215s realistically they still have nine hero
18217s points um yeah exactly so for for for
18220s them the the most hero points they could
18222s possibly blow is six so even if they
18224s blow six this game and go into game six
18227s with only three hero points and they're
18230s still the only team on Match Point three
18233s hero points still buys them a really
18235s good comp into that next game they have
18239s set themselves up massively for Success
18242s right now it's one of those things where
18244s it's like I'm was going to contradict
18246s myself here though cuz if you lose both
18248s those games you are just hooked you
18251s basically can like you've had two
18252s chances to win and then you thrown out
18254s the window cuz like you are just back to
18256s the wall like whatever comps you can
18259s afford uh I I would like to see them do
18262s what your plan is I'd like to see them
18264s you know just go all out get the win in
18266s these next two games while they've got
18268s that that significant lead over the rest
18270s of the lobby but there is also that kind
18272s of like that bird chirping on my
18274s shoulder being like I don't know man
18277s this could get real dicey real quick for
18278s them if we go to game eight and they got
18281s zero hero points they're going to have
18282s to play terer or something like out of
18285s options if they go to game eight
18287s realistically though they're as long as
18289s they still put up consistent game and
18291s get good points going to game eight they
18293s just have to play for points at that
18294s point they have to keep somebody else
18296s from finding an MVP who's above the
18298s Threshold at that point yeah that's the
18300s problem right like by game eight I
18302s actually expect the vast CU honestly
18303s from the way people have been scoring if
18305s if we get to game eight the vast
18307s majority of the part of the lobby will
18309s be in there like you're basically
18311s banking at game eight you're more likely
18313s to see someone else win than you like
18316s I've always like banking on like ewg and
18318s probably Wolves at this point to not win
18321s like that's how bad it is so I don't
18324s know it's it's a rough to be fair I
18327s think I think if you're in a situation
18328s where you have potentially two games
18331s where nobody else can take the
18334s championship uh because they're not over
18336s Match Point threshold yeah like you you
18340s you you go you you absolutely send it if
18342s you're not able to get it in those two
18344s games but you still have a possibility
18346s of taking the championship I don't think
18348s you can even be mad at yourself for
18349s having spent the points like again oh no
18352s no no I think I the Right game plan is
18353s to do that 100% is to spend the points
18355s yeah absolutely well and especially if
18357s you think about it this way right like
18359s how often have we seen an opportunity
18361s where a team could be set up where two
18363s games running they're the only team with
18365s the potential for match point I don't
18367s think we've ever seen it and there's
18369s such a good possibility of it happening
18371s for them today and again they are in
18374s such a good position again we go back to
18377s talking about the hot Drop right every
18379s team that has hot dropped with Alliance
18381s today has eaten that bullet they have
18383s tasted the the the silver and they have
18387s not liked it especially team wolves in
18389s the last game cuz Alliance they went
18391s werewolf hunting last game they came out
18393s they had their silver bullets they were
18395s ready to go off that hot Drop and they
18397s said wolves go ahead and get out of here
18399s and they weren't the only team to eat
18401s the bullet either cuz they dropped on UG
18403s and killed ug off the rip and then
18404s immediately turned on to team wolves
18406s took six eliminations still had their
18408s resurrections and were absolutely
18410s cooking so any team that tries to drop
18412s on them in this next game is going to
18414s have one heck of a fight Jake it really
18417s wasn't even W wolf hunting though was it
18419s it was just like looking for puppy dogs
18421s like wolves look so lost they look so
18424s lost right now it's I I really I don't
18427s needan to keep taking aim at them right
18429s I'm taking aim them because I genuinely
18431s believe in this team and I think they
18432s have fumbled quite hard today and I'm
18434s trying to figure out exactly what it is
18436s and I I think it really boils down to
18439s the team seems very lost in the early
18441s game like they they tried two hot drops
18443s to get like early kills and then die to
18445s the third party or just straight up lost
18447s the hot drop off the bat or the one time
18450s where they were like we're going to drop
18451s away and then be the third paryer they
18454s got they got clowned on there as well
18455s like I I I do feel sorry for them
18458s because they're such a capable team and
18460s realistically they are coming into today
18463s prior to what we just saw they were on
18465s my top like two for today my top two
18468s were JL and wolves they were the two
18469s teams I thought were going to take it
18471s today I I said a couple weeks back that
18475s Alliance have been my black hor for a
18476s while and I I was optimistic about them
18479s but like not realistic but like somehow
18482s both of the teams I believed in are kind
18484s of fumbling and the team who was like
18486s I'd like to see them win but they
18487s probably won't are in that position
18489s where they could close it right
18493s here yeah this is this is going to be a
18496s crazy two games going forward here I I'm
18500s I'm so excited I I I just want to get to
18502s this hero select you know I'm I'm I
18505s usually enjoy my analysis between games
18508s and having time to talk about like the
18509s strategies and stuff but I I just want
18512s to get this hero select and see what
18513s alliance is going to do I want to see
18514s them get in this game I want to see if
18517s they bring the same aggression theyve
18519s brought all all day into this game cuz
18521s that's what I fully
18522s expect
18524s I I expect it I really do expect
18528s it Alliance is definitely where my eyes
18531s are peeled on right now duh but also you
18533s got you know there's other teams who are
18535s close by there are teams who could
18537s potentially do it who could close that
18540s Gap 13 points to jdg today I believe is
18543s it yeah j a second
18546s right yeah uh yes yes the is with JW J
18551s jdg not ewg jdg is is they're averaging
18555s about seven points and they need 10 the
18558s average is trash so it is a
18562s uh it is definitely going to be a a a
18565s hard ask for them wolves I mean they
18569s need the day of their life to pull this
18572s back this has to be like a 20 bomb game
18575s with a first place finish into like
18577s another big game I need
18581s needs like 25 kills in a first place
18583s finish this game now I will say one
18585s thing this is going to be the most
18588s honestly the most BM thing I've ever
18589s said about a team but like we talked
18591s about how they're sprinting right
18592s they're a sprinting team not a marathon
18594s team oh God the good thing is is they
18597s haven't started the race yet they didn't
18598s hear the gunfire
18600s like maybe there's a world where they
18603s start sprinting
18607s S I mean they sprinted in game one the
18609s problem is is they had the wind knocked
18611s out of their sails in game two right
18613s like they had an incredible game number
18615s one even though they lost off the hot
18617s Drop they immediately adjusted right
18620s they knew the adjustment they needed to
18621s make what did they do they immediately
18623s went somewhere else looted up chose not
18625s to take another fight until realm of
18627s Yang win their realm of Yang and use
18630s that to to kind of trebuchet them into a
18634s snowball to take into late game come out
18637s on top take that mvp do really well put
18640s big points on the board so that they
18641s were up to 30 points they were halfway
18643s to threshold uh after game number one
18647s the problem is as they go into game
18648s number two they keep the exact same
18652s strategy they still lose off rip uh and
18656s unfortunately for them it is a little
18657s bit of a bad luck because they do drop
18659s onto that team that has that zy that zy
18661s team is able to get those fireflies very
18664s quickly so that they can get that
18665s ultimate online and it just halfs the
18667s healing of their zipping and because of
18669s that they that fight what do we see them
18671s do they make the same Readjustment that
18673s they do in game one the problem with
18675s this particular strategy is yes it gives
18678s you two really good opportunities to be
18682s aggressive uh if you lose that first
18684s opportunity though and you're forced to
18685s take it to realm of Yang if you lose
18687s that realm of Yang it cuts all of your
18691s momentum off and then you are just
18693s playing keep away the rest of the game
18695s and that's what we see happen in game
18696s number two after that it's like they're
18699s ire confidence crumbles they die off
18702s drop again and then they just kind of
18704s start running around like a chicken with
18705s their head cut off and unfortunately
18708s this is I don't want to say this is a
18709s wolf Trend cuz I think this is a trend
18711s of a lot of the teams when a team starts
18714s strong or looks strong the moment
18716s something goes bad it feels like it gets
18718s them and like I can name so many teams
18722s who do this so many teams that do this
18724s so you know for
18727s wolves they they kind of just got to get
18729s back on that boat and hope that they can
18732s hope that the day doesn't end
18734s here they are in that first round
18736s selection so they do get their priority
18738s this better be a sand siphon or I'm
18740s running to China in Rage because they
18742s are so good at Sand siphon and for some
18745s reason they avoided picking it earlier
18747s today when they had the opportunity to
18749s catch up to the rest of the top Runners
18751s they went for the blind date comp
18752s instead and honestly it just wasn't
18754s impressive now
18756s seeing they for the Monk vower
18760s that is I mean J I got
18763s nothing
18766s confused I just I'm
18768s flabbergasted weirdly like zyphon and
18771s Sans siphon is really low priority right
18773s now and
18774s honestly are they going to give all
18777s right this actually could be so big for
18779s Alliance I I think I think Alliance this
18782s is huge yeah Alliance get sand siphon
18785s and they spend no points taking it yeah
18787s they have nine points and another
18790s opportunity after this potentially I
18792s can't they got
18794s that yeah cuz what we were saying was
18796s you know they could spend all their
18797s points in these next two games while
18799s they're ahead and then potentially risk
18801s being in trouble down the line but
18802s because of this I feel like cuz I
18805s expected a sandon from Alliance here
18807s like I I I felt like that was always
18809s going to be the game plan for them so
18812s the fact that they get their hands on it
18813s now the fact that the blind date is the
18816s only thing that's increased in hero
18817s points to show you how absolutely bizar
18820s today has been as far as like selects
18823s yeah this is this is very very strange
18825s the the worst part is
18828s is unfortunately as an individual team
18831s you've got to make your decision based
18833s on what your team's doing you don't know
18834s what's going to be picked during these
18836s other phases but you would think there
18838s would be an agreement that you don't
18840s want to see Alliance pick up Sanson here
18842s or you want to make it cost as many
18843s points as humanly possible for them um
18848s that just doesn't happen here they they
18850s give sand siphon completely and utterly
18854s free to team Alliance the only team in
18857s the
18858s lobby that has everything to win here uh
18862s now I will say
18865s this with that
18867s said they they might be cooking a little
18870s bit here because if nobody takes sand
18872s siphon regardless of how they're playing
18875s if that's the only there's two sand
18877s siphons or three sand siphons in the
18878s lobby now
18880s um it's kind of easy to pick out which
18883s team is team Alliance
18885s now uh yeah true true also people will
18888s know their drops and stuff so there is
18890s that yeah so to see the kind of pick
18893s rate and the the average points there
18895s for some of these teams like Alliance
18896s 26% pick rate for this comp and only
18899s averaging 8.3 when you get to JL you'll
18902s see why I'm a little bit nervous for
18903s Alliance because
18905s Alliance obviously we wanted to see them
18907s on the S typ it's an incredibly strong
18909s comp but JL zyphon is their best comp
18912s this is the comp which I associate with
18914s with JL this split they've been so good
18917s at that 26% uh pick rate
18920s 14.5 average points to have a pick rate
18924s that high and then average points that
18925s high should really sell you how well
18928s they perform on this comp yeah
18930s absolutely um you know again I think I
18933s might be there there's a world where I'm
18935s huffing some copium on the decision to
18937s just let Alliance have this composition
18939s in the hopes of being able to pick them
18940s out of the lobby uh there's only one
18942s team dropping on them here and it's
18944s going to be Alliance versus JL JL on
18948s their best composition deciding they are
18950s going to be the team that bites the
18952s bullet for the lobby will it pay off in
18955s their favor or will they hand Alliance
18958s the weapon they need to win it all
18960s everyone's sitting at their desk
18962s saluting JL right now right now yeah you
18965s the hero that we
18966s needed we better we better be going over
18971s there I don't want to see wolves versus
18972s K I don't want to see the garbage that's
18975s going on with X1 I want to go see JL
18978s versus GG that's where my attention is
18980s right now you mean J versus Lions but JL
18984s versus uh sorry Alli G yeah you know
18987s what I mean this is the one game number
18990s five Alliance on Match Point all to play
18995s for Here We Go ladies and gentlemen
18997s watching them getting ready to go into
19000s this game Alliance
19002s dropping near JL quick grab a loot just
19005s get some stuff put together fan picked
19007s up for vvv here no armor has got himself
19010s a blue fan though so that's a nice
19011s little boost to his damage going down
19014s txj been able to find that shut down
19016s onto them and with that they need
19018s Revenge to come in and heal them back up
19019s but it's a two versus three vvv is going
19022s for a reposition as they're looking to
19024s get onto ny7 ny7 finds himself is back
19026s to the wo Revenge tries to come in finds
19028s the knock back but they are low Revenge
19030s goes down ny7 is next and JL has stemmed
19035s the bleeding of the
19037s lobby the the rest of the lobby right
19039s now when they get a chance to take their
19041s hands off the keyboard just sending a
19043s salute the direction of Team JL as
19046s they're able to pick up multiple
19047s eliminations onto Alliance but that does
19050s not mean this game is over for team
19052s Alliance they are on one of their best
19055s compositions here they do still have
19057s that early game res Direction and there
19060s are plenty of places for allons to go
19062s out and get loot for themselves cuz we
19064s have actually had a larger cluster of
19066s teams this time around and there's
19068s plenty of gold zones to the North and
19070s South that are going to be Sans teams
19071s that are going to allow Alliance to loot
19073s themselves back up into this game and
19074s head to that realm of Yang I mean
19077s Imperial Village is untouched so there's
19080s so many good gold spots there so they'll
19082s probably be heading over now
19084s GG getting three kills for thems metor
19087s comes in two tickets just slam down GG
19090s just absolutely murdering this part of
19092s the lobby down goes another kill
19095s suddenly they're into five kills drg
19097s also up to five as well XL y now coming
19100s up to Toe to Toe versus CJs going to eat
19103s himself a Parry onto lxm though alexm
19106s comes through they're going to get the
19107s healing on that armor from the karumi
19110s for the side of GG they can reposition
19112s if they need I don't think it's going to
19113s be necessary and with JL shutting down
19118s Alliance at the start of this game and
19119s an eight kills going over to GG to open
19122s it Alliance have got to be nervous now
19124s that is a rough start to game number
19127s five yeah this is crazy crucially though
19130s what this does open up is the potential
19132s for a strong game for Alliance again
19133s next game though because
19136s jdg shut down off the rip here opens up
19139s that space the problem is now that GG is
19141s starting to close that Gap GG though
19143s still 20 points away even after picking
19146s up eight eliminations they've got a lot
19148s of work to put
19151s in they really do and you can see you
19154s know also drg closing the Gap actually
19156s almost tied in points to GG JL they are
19161s literally they're just forsaken their
19162s points and they're just going for for
19165s Alliance they are hunting them it's like
19167s a like a pack dog Yuma isolated once
19171s again this was the major issue for JL uh
19173s sorry for Alliance was Yuma was isolated
19176s from the team and got blown up before
19177s the fight even started now isolated ny7
19180s he's lost a lot of his armor comes in
19182s for the S slam just lower the karumi
19184s healing B bre used JL knew exactly their
19188s game plan this game and it was shut down
19191s Alliance deny them the opportunity to
19193s win the day another F comes in from vvv
19196s and you can see why JL are the team to
19200s watch on the on the zon so consistently
19203s good with it F's breath has been
19205s successfully evaded by Alliance and the
19207s sandstorm will slow down the advance of
19208s J L but it looks like that's going to be
19211s another member going down ny7 Falls an
19215s alliance left scratching the head GG
19217s looking to come in for a potential tidy
19219s up as well and Alliance are all but done
19222s Yuma goes down there is only one
19225s standing GG come in and steal the kill
19229s but J have done their job they have
19232s denied Alliance the
19235s win oh my goodness this is absolutely
19239s absolutely insane Alliance here they get
19241s the comp they want they get it at no
19243s points but still the potential to set up
19246s for another clean game next game JL here
19248s though right now the rest of the lobby
19250s singing their praises as they set
19254s Alliance down to a single member left
19256s remaining alive I don't think there's a
19258s world where Alliance comes back from
19259s this and finds an MVP this game
19261s especially with GG and drg already on
19264s eight and nine eliminations here it is
19266s going to be very very hard for Alliance
19268s even to get their members back into the
19270s game much less for them to be able uh
19275s to find any sort of footing to take an
19278s MVP here we do see this Bain's breath
19280s being invested here trying to buy a
19282s little bit of safety for the likes of
19285s drg drg though losing one of their
19287s members and as we just see here K taking
19290s the risk in the no old Zone in the Ban's
19292s breath just to take the fight here with
19294s drg and drg who's off to a rip of a
19297s start with eight eliminations under the
19299s belt is going to lose two of their
19300s members here early on and they're just
19302s going to back away and kind of wait to
19304s see if K backs out and gives them the
19305s opportunity to go for those
19307s resurrections X1 sitting in the wings
19309s here might actually buy grg the time
19311s that they need to get those
19313s resurrections off if they start to
19315s pressure onto K KLA actually going to
19316s turn away here and we might see drg come
19320s back into this fight because of this K
19322s has to watch the border of this they
19324s have to play around the edge of the zone
19326s so that they have access to that one
19327s ultimate they still have left left uh
19329s and this could be what drg needs to get
19331s the reses up if they stuck around but it
19333s doesn't look like the Wen stayed we we
19336s haven't seen those resurrections yet
19338s come through and alliance's revenge here
19340s uh off on the hunt here for dark tide
19343s coins a solo little rabbit out in the
19346s world is solo roomy trying to keep the
19349s dream alive I do think the uh the one
19352s thing that J need to do is probably take
19354s their foot off the gas a little bit on
19356s the alliance hunting because while they
19358s did a great job of shutting them down JL
19360s do need to also get some points because
19362s they are a long way away they're in
19364s seventh place right now so you can't
19367s commit all your resources to shutting
19368s down the top team I think they've done
19370s the job to make sure that this game stay
19372s well this this day stays alive for at
19374s least one more game now and that is what
19377s they needed to do buy every little bit
19379s they can every little
19380s section every little second every little
19382s game make sure that you can get as many
19384s points as possible and then be within
19385s that contest
19387s yourself as uh
19389s jail I have a sneaking suspicion they're
19392s still hunting though which is I would
19394s say is quite concerning if that's the
19395s case because I'd like to see them you
19398s know actually focus on their own game a
19400s little
19401s bit the real question for me on Alliance
19404s front the real question for me on
19405s alliances front though is like how is
19407s their mental fortitude cuz we haven't
19408s seen them like basically just bullied
19411s out of a game yet they've been kind of
19413s left to their own devices and just play
19414s consistently all day so are they going
19417s to be able to recover from what was
19419s honestly being a pretty horrific start
19420s to a game where they had it all they
19423s were set up for the
19426s victory uh you know I Alliance
19429s fortunately is one of those teams that
19431s has never had mental consistency
19433s problems even when they're like at the
19435s bottom of the leaderboard like in in a
19438s in a rep chage looking for the
19439s opportunity to get in and there's like
19441s no way for them to even qualify for like
19444s a grand final or for worlds or whatever
19447s every single game we see them they are
19449s playing their absolute heart out like
19451s they just don't slow down I've never
19454s seen their mental really get affected
19456s badly and I think if your alliance
19458s coming into this game you have to expect
19461s exactly this to happen right like you
19464s come into this game with the the the
19466s mental idea that there's a very good
19469s possibility we just get hunted out of
19471s this Lobby alt together yeah that is a
19475s uh an unfortunate reality that they have
19478s to face coming into it as a zones
19481s spawning up re Yang spawning up so
19483s expect to see all the teams jumping in
19485s GG going to be going up versus JL this
19487s is a contest for two very very big teams
19490s in the lobby obviously JL not got quite
19493s as many kills as gg gg off to an
19495s absolutely killer start purple armor on
19497s to CJs here believe purple armor on to
19499s alexm as well yeah so he's also pretty
19501s geared up CJs looking to see if he can
19504s find that opportunity to get those hubs
19506s off as they're already coming in a lot
19508s of damage on lxm he's lost his armor
19510s already trying to stay alive CGS is
19512s breaking away F comes out doesn't make a
19514s connection onto BVB but he is able to
19516s get a whole heap of damage off there
19518s with the fan just bursting through that
19520s health bar now lxm needs a bit of saving
19522s karumi ultimate comes out just to keep
19524s them alive BV locked down by the chains
19526s though from CJs immediately Kumi
19528s ultimate comes out as an answer in
19530s response to that chain cat there CGS is
19533s trying to find that code K on to one
19535s Fang one Fang has to reposition the
19537s ultimate the last time he can do that
19538s one GG CJs didn't really get too much of
19542s his armor refreshed he spent a lot of
19543s time out that Kumi ultimate so hasn't
19545s got the full heal coming in but has got
19547s an F available to him can he find that
19549s opportunity one Fang caught out burning
19552s for the second but now he looks for the
19553s turn around F comes down misses from CJs
19557s GG holding this fight out there's a
19559s minute left on the timer no clear winner
19562s decided yet but a beautiful Parry opens
19564s up with the 330 shunks through his
19566s health bar one thing looks to put the
19567s pressure in onto CGS is doing his best
19569s to try and keep his team alive as his
19572s members are going low one Fang himself
19574s finds himself in danger lxm goes down in
19577s the middle of the fight CS now he sees
19578s these fans flawlessly he's unable to do
19581s so JL take the
19584s ryang yeah this is really big for JL as
19587s well well cuz there is a world where
19588s team GG actually crosses uh the
19591s threshold in this game if they come out
19593s of this realm of Yang that would have
19594s put them at 12 eliminations uh they
19597s would have been a I do believe about
19599s eight points away from match point there
19603s uh would have been exceptionally huge
19605s for them but that's not the world that
19607s happens ja's able to shut them down and
19609s come out on top GG though still has the
19612s opportunity to come out and find some
19613s soul blooms get this game back online
19615s for them if they can go to 12
19617s eliminations and head to that late game
19619s where GG really excels there is very
19622s easily a world uh where they just come
19625s out on top look at that yeah they're
19626s currently 10 points away from match
19629s point so GG some work to do but it's not
19631s over for him just yet Jake no it's not
19634s act all Walker looking a hunt down on to
19637s a Kill he's got himself that Vermillion
19639s Birds might so why not M it might onto K
19642s though so they get taken out they are
19644s taken out this is this is a a finalizer
19647s for done kind of thing K being hunted
19651s here Walker with golden spear just
19653s hunting onto him isn't even going to
19655s commit the the transform yet it's going
19657s to pop the Bell can't touch the ear
19660s though has to take the cube but that's
19661s going to be him hitting the ground after
19664s his nice little King holiday K able to
19666s secure the kill here onto one a could be
19669s next up on the menu does get slapped
19671s back briefly though so needs to now make
19673s a break for it himself in comes CJs GG
19677s looking to secure themselves to Soul
19679s blooms they did get a kill I don't know
19681s if they've been able to get onto that
19682s Soul Bloom yet though Walker trying to
19684s make a break for it but Walker goes down
19686s that's a member cured for the side of GG
19689s only one kill no two kills at the moment
19691s fr30 on the run
19694s here GG need to find one
19698s more oh look at this wol final team
19701s member has found alliance's final team
19703s member a little bit of tasty payback
19705s here for wolves I don't think wolves
19707s thinks they can win this game here but
19709s they can at least put some pain onto
19711s team Alliance Revenge with the ultimate
19714s here buying themselves a little bit of
19715s space but unfortunately can't fight in
19717s the zone and of course they are fighting
19719s here where they have that vda with that
19721s extra 2K HP revenge is going to be in a
19723s bad spot here going to try to buy some
19725s time try to bait out the rest of this
19727s ultimate try to get away as long as they
19729s don't get speared they're pretty good
19730s able to jump able to get the read on the
19733s spear there zedk trying to make
19735s something happen here a little bit of
19737s duration left on that ultimate is going
19738s to end very shortly Revenge looking to
19741s find a spot to take a little bit of a
19743s reset here has set up the umbrella so
19745s they can get away from any Potential
19746s Threat have got to be careful though wol
19749s Z K with most of a reset here can afford
19752s to fight in the zone while Revenge
19753s cannot here with how low their HP is now
19756s their Shield's going to go low as well
19757s unfortunately for Revenge they are able
19759s to get the scale Rush here but this
19761s wolves ZK still on them wolves wants to
19764s take Alliance out of this here they are
19766s doing everything they can another
19769s umbrella Revenge backing away forcing ZK
19772s to play for the umbrella Revenge going
19773s to break away yet again the grapple
19775s comes through Revenge looking to set
19777s anything up here for themselves they
19779s just trying to keep this game away they
19781s will be able to turn back around wol ZK
19783s going to invest the F here Revenge doing
19786s everything they can to keep the game
19787s alive here the grapple comes through
19788s they get one pot off here as they will
19790s keep it together the Perry on to wol ZK
19793s ZK trying to get revenge for team wolves
19797s Revenge not having any of it he wants to
19800s keep it alive but Z K with literally one
19803s HP in a dream finds the uppercut and
19806s cleans up alliance's Revenge Alliance is
19809s heading back to the lobby M they
19812s got wolves might not be done here
19814s they've got enough money to get some
19815s some revive charms
19817s off oh the battle room me almost came
19820s through Revenge played that very well
19822s considering he's going into someone with
19824s like actual fighting utility more than
19827s just supportive healing really really
19829s well just using your base mechanics at
19831s the game juel halber still got it they
19834s still got that little bit of lock down
19835s they still got that burst there's a
19837s rebirth chance for w
19839s see if they can get another one off and
19841s the crazy thing is if Revenge had got
19843s that one hit in they would have had that
19845s money and that money probably would have
19847s been enough to get them back into the
19848s game and get some get some players in
19851s whether or not that would have been
19851s enough to actually get the MVP very
19853s unlikely but man Incredibly Close wolves
19857s are back on the
19858s map but GG are still in charge of the
19862s game absolutely crushing it here as we
19865s see the uh Roma yangs get spawned up
19869s and also a spirit well where everybody
19872s is contesting on that one as you can see
19875s we can see the Wolves camera sorry the
19876s alliance camera right now they're all in
19878s good spirits everyone laughing and
19880s having a good time so they are
19883s ready for game number
19886s six there game number one five sorry was
19889s just completely undone by JL JL had
19893s their number it looks like wbg might be
19895s getting a free run with Y to themselves
19896s but everyone else is fighting over
19898s Spirit Well pop the Uber goes oh no it
19901s gets
19903s interrupted I believe that's them just
19905s taken out GG sliding in securing a bunch
19907s of kills off the back of it as well LM
19909s takes down Peak you trying to make a
19911s break away but ug are keeping the
19913s pressure up and it's just into the
19914s waiting hands of GG lxm looking for the
19918s kill you is able to break away and
19920s that's going to be ug who secur the kill
19922s onto you but GG continues control The
19925s Spirit Well for now although they are
19926s going incredibly low going to force use
19929s that karumi ultimate as OG desperately
19931s trying to force them off The Spirit Well
19934s GG are they going to give it up looks
19937s like they are OG get it and wolves are
19939s back on the map they've been able to
19940s rebirth their entire
19944s team yeah you know they are shouting
19947s zk's name right now in a
19951s r they re birthed and they got into a re
19954s y
19956s uncontested That's a mirror baby that
19959s could have been Alliance that could have
19961s been Alliance it could have been
19963s Alliance but wbg here trading blows with
19966s JL inside this real of Yang JL
19968s absolutely on fire this game uh
19971s Unfortunately they still have too much
19973s work to put in I do believe to be in a
19974s position to get that match point GG
19976s though exceptionally close to heading
19979s into match point which actually could
19981s help Alliance going into the next game
19983s having another Target for the lobby to
19986s try to split onto so that they're not so
19989s easily able to be uh picked out from the
19991s pack if you will wbg Sleepwalker though
19993s turning on to txj JL here who was in a
19996s really strong position here inside the
19998s realm of Yang now in a 2V1
20001s vvv one of our world champions from the
20004s very first year one of the best players
20006s in the world trying to find a 1v2 or be
20009s able to stall this out for the next 30
20011s seconds some huge damage actually coming
20012s in from vvv trying to find the Parry
20015s going to miss time it though the
20016s uppercut going to come through
20018s fortunately just not enough wbg comes
20020s out on top JL going to be heading out
20022s the Roman Yang there with the Yang
20023s depletion looking to make something
20025s happen as we cut over to GG oh this is
20027s so unfortunate GG actually going to get
20029s eliminated from the lobby here at so
20033s close oh they do have one player but I
20035s don't know where they're going to put
20036s together four points for themselves this
20039s game as K is going to sit here on these
20042s bodies and you know for Alliance this is
20045s actually kind of bad if there had been
20046s two teams heading into game game number
20048s six above threshold it makes it much
20051s harder uh for that Lobby to make the
20053s decision to drop somebody on their head
20056s and just eliminate them off the rip uh
20058s because they have two Targets but it
20060s looks like we're going to be heading
20061s into a world uh where there's only going
20063s to be a single Target no got GG with the
20067s double rebirth charms actually brings GG
20069s back into this game and again GG wants
20072s to be on that match point threshold
20073s right they want to have a world where
20075s they can find the MVP and come out on
20077s top of this what's there's an issue
20079s though we've got JL running around with
20082s the r Yang debuff and I'm 90% sure I
20085s just saw them on L xm's mini map now lxm
20088s obviously won't be able to see them
20089s himself but there's a world where GG
20092s respawn and then JL respawn right on top
20094s of them or near them and take him out
20096s cuz remember they're going to be under
20097s geared where JL are going to keep their
20099s gear from that fight well GG here it is
20103s exactly what you said but they're
20104s looking to stop and do some shopping
20106s maybe they don't see the likes of GG but
20108s they are going to start coming in txj
20110s trying to get this engagement started
20112s but txj very separated from the rest of
20114s the team if GG can turn onto this and
20116s turn this into a 3v2 it could very
20118s quickly fall into their favor look at
20120s this they're going to send a sacrificial
20122s lamb away they're going to let 330 go
20124s down to the likes of JL JL going to give
20126s Chase to 330 here GG going to be able to
20129s head the other direction Fang kind of
20131s chilling around waiting to see if GG is
20133s going to come out of the Wings here as
20135s they see 330 but they do not see the
20137s rest of the team te Fang going to decide
20139s to head this way now 330 is going to be
20141s the sacrificial Lambs going to go down
20143s to team JL but you can bet money GG
20145s already far away and look at this lm's
20147s got 20,000 dark tide coins so long as
20150s there is another rebirth charm for them
20151s to buy they are more than happy to send
20154s 330 away here they need to yeah come
20156s down find something here KLA over the
20158s top of them GG has to slow yeah GG's got
20162s to slow roll this they have to play this
20164s well uh JL going to come do a little bit
20166s of shopping K's qgg here coming in off
20168s the edge GG just has to continue to play
20172s this slow they are doing everything they
20175s can to get themselves back into this
20177s game they've got the pots right there's
20179s the resurrection altar that they need
20181s they just need to find themselves
20182s another shop be able to get themselves
20185s back into this uh the nearest shop I do
20187s believe was where uh JL stopped off
20189s there on Podium for them so they're
20191s going to have to come in look at this
20193s trading swapping here to get them back
20195s in they're going to come around this
20196s corner where they have an opportunity
20197s take a full reset CJs just giving those
20200s pots over to lxm here letting him get
20202s the the full benefit there as he does
20204s have enough money to potentially buy two
20206s more rebirth charms uh so they are going
20208s to have to find a shop they're going to
20209s have to hope there's still some rebirth
20211s charms left remaining in the game uh see
20213s if they can get their other player back
20215s in here make something pop off for
20217s themselves cuz realistically they just
20219s need to find Four Points uh if they can
20222s find one more point from surviving
20223s potentially pick up three eliminations
20225s once they get a member back in that
20227s could be all she wrote for GG they'll be
20228s able to go into the next game there with
20230s that very crucial um setup for them to
20234s be going and taking that mvp but as you
20236s take a look here JL two members still on
20239s Yang depletion with 1 minute and 46
20241s seconds left they're going to have to
20242s force themselves into this fight with
20243s Team wol yeah could uh could be a little
20246s bit rough here for the side of JL down a
20248s single player F goes by into the spirit
20251s world they're looking to fight Zen finds
20253s in a bit of dangerous he just
20254s immediately transforms BBB losing a fair
20256s chunk of Health Z to reposition himself
20260s safe from the cannon fire right now
20261s inside the dome but not safe from the
20263s blade of JL that's going to be a catch
20265s on to one though can he find the clap
20267s nope just going to get himself one off
20270s another catch onto vbv vvv in some
20272s serious danger here can they finish them
20274s up low HP that's going to be wol
20277s securing a kill onto
20279s BBB him in some serious danger as well
20281s cuz he was not the cleansed member now
20283s Zen goes down wolves lose a player in
20285s the middle of all of this is X1 able to
20287s slide and secure thems the kills it is a
20290s fight for this Spirit Well absolute
20293s desperation play and wolves they did a
20295s fantastic job to bring him back remember
20297s they got eliminated but ran into a real
20299s of Yang secured it for free and gots to
20302s reviv in the resets off but immediately
20305s losing their monk is a terrible terrible
20308s turn for them JL loses their member as
20311s well they go down to
20313s one this is going to be a tight fight
20316s game as we go to that did GG turn the
20319s tables if GG come back and kill JL in in
20323s Revenge for killing Revenge that would
20325s be that would be so
20328s cinematic uh K they're going to pick up
20331s this Mystic might here unfortunately
20332s this was the perfect opportunity where
20334s everybody was contesting The Spirit Well
20335s for GG uh to go find that uh
20339s Resurrection charm if there was one left
20340s available for them uh unfortunately we
20343s did not see that Resurrection come
20344s through they are still down to two
20345s members I don't think there is a
20347s resurrection charm left for the likes of
20349s GG as we had in from Zone 4 to zone five
20353s uh GG will be stuck to two members they
20356s do still have four points to find if
20359s they want to get to that match point
20361s threshold I think they're going to have
20362s to look for a really strong third party
20365s on the likes of something like uh X1
20367s versus the the one member of JL like if
20370s jl's member shows up here potentially
20372s looking to do something into this fight
20374s between K and X1 this would be the
20376s perfect fight for GG to come in on to
20379s we're going to see ballista shots coming
20381s in I'm not sure who's on the ballista if
20383s my money had to be on anybody it would
20385s be uh GG but no it is wbg up on the
20388s ballista oh X1 going to lose zdi here to
20392s the ballista always good for one
20395s baby really is GG clinging to the inside
20400s I'd like to see them at least get to a
20401s shop and buy Su some stuff
20404s like my boy is my boy's in Gray armor he
20407s is incredibly weak and like you're
20409s saying they only need to get a couple of
20410s kills a couple more placements maybe
20412s could also help them but like
20414s realistically it's just a couple more
20415s kills there is a world where they
20420s somehow survive till last man standing
20423s and then they double their plac they
20424s double their kill points well not double
20425s their kill points sorry they get the
20426s kill multiply it's not a double it's 1.2
20428s is it
20429s 1.3 yeah but there is points alone the
20433s four placement points alone would take
20434s him there at this point yeah exactly
20437s there are avenues for GG they just got
20439s to be very very smart about it K coming
20443s in with their Viper stun to lock down
20444s onto Memphis Jing Walker looking for a
20447s grab K able to secure themselves one
20449s already Jing goes down as now they're
20452s looking for actually the members of
20453s wolves NQ just dodging away on the grabs
20455s Bane's breath is there though and Walker
20458s finds himself having to skip through the
20460s middle of the Bane's breath in all of
20462s this action so much heat on him right
20464s now Walker looking just to get away V
20466s breath oh just narrowly evades him qgg
20469s goes for the knock back into the Bane's
20471s breath baseall batted in Walker pops the
20475s Bell but nothing left now at this point
20477s he just needs to try and play Survival
20479s it looks like that's been enough to
20480s force them off because everyone wants to
20482s turn their attention towards that Spirit
20484s Well can't see what's inside it probably
20487s some goodies definitely Walkers Karen GG
20492s picks up an elimination on to X1 they go
20494s to 15
20496s 16.5
20499s close coming away here so intense for GG
20502s yeah theyve got to play this so perfect
20506s right now one more placement point is
20509s going to put them at 63 so realistically
20511s two more eliminations and a single
20513s placement is all that separates them
20516s from being on Match Point or not going
20518s into game number six and look at this
20520s they've been able to drastically
20523s increase the equipment of CJs with
20525s purple armor legendary fist blade
20528s yeah what happened he went from Gray to
20529s gray just like purple to
20532s Gold it's got to be the member they
20534s picked up there from X1 they just loot
20537s up get themselves in a really strong
20538s position GG now down below they pick up
20541s another straggler here on to WX
20545s 98
20546s 63.5 one elimination and a single
20549s placement is all that separates team GG
20554s from qualifying into Match Point heading
20557s in into game six GG in a tight situation
20562s ug as we are here on everybody's
20564s favorite ballista watch everybody using
20567s this Tower to get them momentum and GG
20570s keeping a close eye on the situation drg
20573s down to a single or sorry down to a
20576s single member now as we see SS get
20578s resurrected but then eliminated yet
20580s again as we're going to see Team GG pick
20584s one up on wolves they go to 64.5 they
20587s still need need a single placement Point
20589s GG needs to wait this fight out they
20592s need to let these other teams take the
20595s Heat this is it they need that one
20598s additional placement point six teams
20601s left remaining alive they need to see
20604s drg get eliminated here this could be
20606s all that they need I think they actually
20608s need one more placement after this cuz I
20609s think they tie up at five no there it is
20612s ladies and gentlemen GG goes to 65
20615s points and will be on Max Point as we
20617s have into game number six that is
20620s absolutely brilliant there for GG that
20623s is a just like that is a mental
20627s cleansing knowing you were that close
20629s and it almost went wrong and you brought
20631s it back played it so smart GG are going
20634s to be feeling very happy with himself
20636s going forward and remember these guys
20638s are the defending Champions here at the
20641s mvpl they won spring split they finally
20644s stopped being the bridesma and became
20646s the bride and it's now now their turn
20648s once again to hold that title they
20649s dropped the trophy off they want to be
20651s taking it back with them them an
20654s alliance ug could also pull a miracle
20657s out the Hat here and potentially qualify
20660s alongside them so eyes on ug right now
20663s but they are down there karumi oh no no
20665s they're fully up they've got everyone so
20668s there is a world where could be set up
20670s enough as we do see T ultimate maker
20673s connection Z has been hit by that charm
20675s though so he's going to break away just
20677s so he doesn't stumble off the edge and
20678s put himself in danger SS also find
20681s himself in a similar position CGS is
20683s just pressuring up onto OG and it's now
20685s GG's job to shut ug down they might not
20689s know but they need to make sure that ug
20692s do not get into that qualifying position
20695s as K actually can do some good for them
20697s here ping goes down to cxz here in the
20700s middle of all of that action SS
20701s incredibly low SS goes down to CJs and
20705s GG EV actually surpassed Alliance this
20707s game nobody really matters but it's
20709s going to work in their favor K take down
20712s CJs lxm The Last Man Standing is just
20715s going to open up onto AIA here on The
20717s High Ground AIA incredibly low going to
20720s be a hard one for them to hold on to
20722s this one anymore as qg getting battered
20724s by the nunchucks here from Asia on that
20727s High
20728s Ground going to pop himself the ultimate
20731s and suddenly this is going to be a very
20733s hard to deal with valer does get caught
20735s out by the Tessa snare but it's going to
20737s be a can they go for a reset on that
20739s High Ground don't think they're going to
20740s have the time to do so just going to do
20741s it from the tree caught by the grapple
20743s though as lxm incredibly low probably
20747s going down here actually going to try
20749s not to give the kill but it is going to
20751s be K he secure that
20753s one ug holding in
20755s fast kill multiplier for ug could be a
20760s massive Difference Maker but it is just
20762s their Z left standing AAL goes down zenu
20766s finds himself in J just stunned up
20768s inside the Zone I don't think you're
20770s going to be able to survive this one
20771s down they go ug last team standing
20775s should be the MVP for that game huge
20777s huge game for them I think KLA actually
20780s takes the MVP here with the kill
20783s multiplier be very tight yeah it is
20784s there it is K takes the kill multiplier
20787s but crucially all eyes on team Alliance
20790s and team GG as we head into game number
20793s six two teams have crossed the match
20796s point the threshold and this is a best
20798s casee worst case scenario for Alliance
20800s realistically Alliance still in a good
20803s position still nine hero points going
20806s into this next game and it is not all
20809s eyes on Alliance now these players have
20813s got to contend with both GG and Alliance
20816s which means they need to find two teams
20817s looking to Hot Drop on both these teams
20819s and eliminate them very quickly
20821s otherwise it opens up a world where
20823s Alliance and GG have the opportunity to
20826s find that mvp and walk away your
20829s Champion for the summer split and I
20831s think the big thing is everyone knows
20834s where G drops GG are very consistent in
20838s that area they they don't have
20840s alternative routes they drop on every
20842s map they have one location where they
20844s stubbornly drop on rain shine or JL in
20848s the area they will always drop there
20851s Alliance they do have like your the your
20853s regulars but I believe they have more
20854s than just like one drop spot for each M
20856s they are a little bit bit more adaptable
20858s on that front so it was a good read from
20860s JL the drop spot is one of the one of
20864s the alliance drop spots so I think they
20865s saw someone dropping there and we're
20866s like well that'll be the one for us
20868s we'll see if uh if it's if it's Alliance
20870s and it ended up being Alliance and they
20873s saved the lobby there and
20875s honestly while it felt like they were
20877s focusing a little bit too hard on
20878s shutting Alliance down towards the end
20881s they actually got quite a few kills so
20883s Alliance no sry not Alliance JL actually
20886s did a pretty solid job of uh pullings
20888s back into this game and you know they've
20890s got some work to do cuz they're a little
20891s bit lber down that table in that second
20893s pick phase as uh we will see a answer
20897s for Treasures this is a question for you
20898s guys how many players chose karumi in
20900s game number five was it two three four
20902s or five ABC in twitch chat please I was
20906s say I'm going to give you a little hint
20907s for this one chat if you were paying
20909s attention during the hero select at the
20910s beginning of this game which was exactly
20912s what me and Jake were most hyped about
20914s coming into game number five uh there
20916s were how many teams played sand siphon
20920s are going to answer this
20922s question didn't we hold on didn't we see
20925s some
20927s z uh we we saw some some uh zons but
20931s there was a number of teams I mean we're
20933s past it now it was three teams played
20935s sand
20937s Sion Just Give It Away there we are
20939s though match point now to Alli and GG ug
20943s are very close drg are very close JL
20945s have closed that Gap
20947s technically the other teams have as well
20949s but I mean like wolves are in this first
20951s round
20952s selection they are dropping further and
20955s further is getting harder and harder for
20957s them you let the poor puppies rest Jake
20960s no I'm disappoint chat yelling at you
20963s again Chad Chad already told me to slap
20967s you they said you to have a very long
20970s mate I'm across the pond I I know right
20972s I I said I'm going to have to get on a
20973s plane chat
20977s look I I'll get the ticket I'll go I'm
20980s I'm I'm allowed to be disappointed with
20981s Wolves I I I'm sure chat might be a
20984s little bit like oh why is he why is he
20986s why is he dumping on them cuz they're a
20987s good team they're better than what
20989s they're doing right now they are this is
20992s this was the split where I actually
20994s believed they were going to win it I
20995s really did and I think right now they've
20998s got in their own heads after a pretty
20999s rough start to the day I will give it to
21002s them that game was a really good
21004s comeback for them but damn they
21005s shouldn't have been out at that point
21007s they shouldn't have been out at that
21008s point and honestly when your Bower is
21010s almost getting one V one by a karumi and
21012s it was literally it came down to one
21015s hit like it's it's it's a little bit
21018s rough for them so you know I I have my
21021s concerns about wolves right now I
21022s realistically the odds of them winning
21024s today is just astronomically low not
21027s zero though not zero they they could
21030s still technically do it they've got a
21031s lot of work to do though if they want to
21033s pull it back but here are the points and
21035s the scores after all of that K of a 20po
21038s game K been relatively disappointing
21040s today as well so this is a nice comeback
21042s from them really really impressive stuff
21044s and you can see GG close to that mvp but
21048s this MVP doesn't matter to GG it's the
21050s next one it's game number six is where
21052s it's all to play for yeah absolutely you
21055s know Alliance going out here with a zero
21057s realistically like we cut to Alliance we
21059s we talked about how important mental is
21062s and how rough it can be for teams who
21064s have been having good days to bounce
21066s back from a game like this but when we
21068s cut to the camera of Team Alliance they
21070s were chill they were excited they were
21072s Smiles on their faces they are I I don't
21076s think they let this affect them in any
21077s way and again respectfully they've been
21079s a team that has done very well in terms
21083s of mental no matter how bad they have
21085s done even when there's no hope of them
21087s you know climbing up and qualifying for
21089s an event we've seen them come in and
21091s still pull a huge MVP out of the Hat
21094s even when there's realistically not
21095s enough points possibly on the even if
21097s they murdered the entire Lobby uh to
21099s take it away and they still came in and
21101s played their hearts out this is a team
21103s that doesn't really let their mental
21105s affect them too much unlike most of the
21107s rest of the league yeah I think that is
21110s one of their main strengths uh I think
21112s they also expected this game and like
21114s you said it's it's a double-edged sword
21117s now because all of the heat has been
21120s taken off them and it's kind of been
21121s spread out between them and GG but the
21123s issue is is also now they are competing
21125s with GG like they had one game to win
21128s where no one was going to contest them
21130s like at least in the standings and there
21132s was no opportunity to get knocked out
21133s and end the day but now with that rough
21137s start from JL just absolutely turbo
21139s bullying them Alliance have you know now
21143s been left in a position where they need
21146s to they need to make this game count
21149s because if they don't win here if GG wi
21152s going to be four teams there going to be
21153s four teams they could even potentially
21155s be five teams depending on how well the
21157s the scores go through then you're
21158s suddenly into you know you're into game
21160s seven territory you're having real
21162s concerns about that so it's it's really
21165s all to play for for Alliance going
21166s forwards
21167s here yeah um it's it's going to be very
21171s very interesting to see how this next
21172s game plays out but uh they do still have
21175s nine hero points uh and realistically
21178s the most they are going to have to spend
21179s is six in this next game so even if it
21181s does go to game seven they actually
21183s still have that three hero points we
21184s talked about them potentially having
21186s just for game six they're actually in a
21188s fairly good position in terms of being
21191s able to pick and play teams that they
21193s want to to have the best possible game
21196s they can um I don't know if I'm team
21198s Alliance if I pick sand siphon into the
21200s next game you know we talked about in
21201s the beginning here that I I think there
21203s was actually kind of a big brain play
21205s here uh to leave sand siphon open all
21207s the way to the last pick because it kind
21209s of gives you a guarantee that you know
21211s any sand siphon you see has a huge
21214s likelihood of being team Alliance uh
21216s which when when JL sees that sand siphon
21218s early on that's why they lock on and
21220s they do not let it go cuz they don't
21222s know that it's Alliance that they kill
21224s 100% for sure they have an incling but
21227s the more information you can give
21229s yourself the better uh I I think if I'm
21232s team Alliance in this next game I pick
21233s up maybe my second best comp instead of
21236s full sending it and taking the sandite
21238s again but we're going to take a look
21238s here qg from Team KLA with their six MVP
21241s of the Season 18,000 damage six
21244s eliminations here on Tesla we haven't
21246s seen a t MVP in a long time 7,650 of
21250s that damage coming in from the PO sword
21252s Aurora ver Juggernaut Overlord rupture
21254s Gale Alchemy and jabbing just a full
21258s stack of Soul Jades across the board
21260s yeah I haven't seen a St like this in a
21263s little while actually almost almost
21265s close to what we used to have before the
21266s changes to Immortal War people would
21269s have all purples and Golds no blues or
21272s any of that nonsense but yeah I I
21275s mean this next game is going to be very
21277s exciting
21278s uh I it's so hard to call um what map
21282s are we going to for game six is it
21284s Morris or is it
21286s pedor um you can't remember either can
21288s you that is a good question i' I've been
21290s so caught up in this storyline uh
21292s between Alliance I do believe it's more
21295s if I'm not mistaken but I mean
21297s realistically right now what we are
21299s watching is this crazy play come out
21302s between Alliance and GG but before we
21304s get to that we are going to take a short
21306s break make sure you go ahead and get
21307s something to drink and a snack cuz
21308s you're not going to want to miss this

21533s [Music]
21567s hello everybody and welcome back to the
21568s mvpl we're getting ready to go into game
21571s number six we got GG we got Alliance on
21574s Match Point and a whole heap of teams
21577s behind them all competing to get to that
21580s 65 point Match Point threshold and I
21583s think if one of those teams doesn't win
21584s today or win here we are going to have
21587s another four or five teams coming
21589s through the floodgates after them and
21590s then game seven is going to be absolute
21593s Carnage yeah I I I don't think there's a
21595s world where this potentially goes to
21597s eight games I mean it always can you you
21600s know the the Stars can absolutely align
21602s but if either GG or Alliance don't take
21606s it in this game we are going to see four
21609s five six teams across that threshold
21612s when you've got half the lobby on Match
21614s Point the odds of one of those teams not
21617s being able to make it to the MVP with
21619s how hungry these teams have been today
21621s is just astronomical I I think
21624s realistically yeah I totally agree I
21626s think I I think the the odds of it going
21629s to game eight are probably relatively
21631s low I mean a game eight would be
21633s absolutely insane it' be so much fun CU
21636s you probably the vast majority of the
21637s lobby at that point at the point like I
21641s think you'd probably see at the very
21644s least seven teams on 65 points for games
21648s eight maybe more if we get really lucky
21651s uh but I I do agree I think honestly I
21654s think this game or next game is probably
21657s where the day is decided and where the
21658s split is decided as much as part of me
21661s would like to see it um there's also a
21664s part of me who goes you know come on the
21665s line you you got this this is this is
21667s your game you can pull it back GG are
21669s going to take some of the heat off you
21671s you can come back and if we are a Morris
21674s then obviously it's very easy to read
21675s where GG are going to be going uh
21677s because we're going to have everyone
21678s jumping into the into the secret tunnel
21681s and again the thing is is if you do try
21684s and spawn jump one of these teams you
21687s could make or break the day like if you
21689s do a JL did then yeah you caught yor
21692s alone and then you've caught Alliance of
21694s their trousers around their ankles but
21695s like also the same time like if
21699s you if you catch them prepared and ready
21702s and they blow you up they you've just
21704s started the snowball and you might not
21706s be able to strong you might not be
21708s strong enough to stop that
21710s snowball yeah it's going to be very very
21712s interesting again I think I think JL
21714s finds themselves in a really good
21716s position like you said they were able to
21717s just separate Yuma from the rest of the
21719s team and following that you know allian
21721s is just trying to pick their Travelers
21724s back up as you say uh and
21727s it just doesn't work out for them even
21728s when they're in a position where they're
21729s like all right we're going to make the
21730s sacrifice play and leave a try to leave
21732s two members alive what happens is GG
21735s goes up and decides that they're going
21737s to catch one of their members out and
21738s then they're left to one and
21740s unfortunately zedk from wolves decides
21742s to kind of feast on them a little bit
21745s try to get themselves back in game but
21746s here we go our two teams on Match Point
21748s we've only been talking about it all day
21750s it's going to be GG and Alliance the
21753s rest of the lobby looks to climb to that
21755s match point while trying to keep these
21757s teams from finding an MVP to clutch out
21761s the championship for the season a lot of
21764s money on the light a lot of Pride and
21765s that coveted guaranteed spot to qualify
21769s for Jacob here we go ladies and
21771s gentlemen as we get ready to lock in for
21773s game number six
21776s I very much believe as well that the
21779s points are completely redundant like
21781s once you hit that 65 points obviously
21783s everything up to 65 point is got a point
21786s like
21786s typically the ruling is is if we get to
21789s game eight and no one in eligibility has
21792s taken an MVP is then based on who has
21795s the highest points so right now
21796s technically if we were at the end of
21798s game eight right now GG would be the
21800s winners because they've got extra points
21802s but like I just think there's pointing
21804s to me nothing like I don't think
21805s Alliance care that GG took first from
21808s them that doesn't matter to them because
21810s ultimately their placement doesn't
21812s matter as long as they're on 65 points
21815s in fact it would help them if more teams
21817s got to 65 points and Alliance Stood
21819s Still in points and then dropped down
21821s into the next hero select as long as
21824s they win a game as long as they get MVP
21827s before anyone else on Match eligibility
21829s that is all that matters here and I
21831s don't think we're going to see any other
21833s way of settling this today I think it
21834s really just comes down to MVP yeah I
21837s mean realistically even if we do go to
21839s game number eight there will just be so
21841s many teams uh on that match point
21843s eligibility it's just there's no way it
21846s comes down to score today you are either
21848s going to earn that Championship or
21851s you're not uh and you know taking a look
21854s here
21855s wolves I I hate to agree with you on
21858s this Jake uh kind of looking like
21859s puppies today yeah it's not really been
21862s their day I mean they are an insane pop
21866s off game from getting onto Match Point
21867s eligibility it's like 22 points which is
21870s achievable I mean we saw uh we saw ewg
21874s do it actually earlier on in the day oh
21876s not ewg it was jdg who did it earlier on
21879s in the day
21881s so technically yes they're not done it's
21884s not cooked for them yet but they have
21887s been looking very lost all day and that
21889s is my major concern they're in this
21891s first round of hero selection so they
21892s kind of get pick L they get to take what
21894s they want and this is the point in the
21896s day where I want to see teams start
21897s burning points because you know have two
21900s teams who are potentially going to end
21902s it all why are you still on nine points
21905s burn your points obviously if you're in
21906s this first round selection then unless
21909s you've picked a hero so much that it's
21911s costing you extra points you're going to
21913s be okay but realistically I want to see
21916s seeing you know I want to see wolves
21918s pick up the sand siphon they have seemed
21920s to be allergic to this all day and it's
21923s very bizarre because we got these monk
21925s comps in the meta and sand Sion does
21927s well into it it stops those grabs it's
21930s incredibly aggressive it's got a lot of
21931s burst potential but they're going to
21933s lock it in am I crazy resist this now
21936s the new FF
21939s the W spends that in Phase One and goes
21942s to Zero Hero points we've been griping
21945s on teams about not spending hero points
21948s uh I think this is the opposite of that
21949s I I don't agree with Wolves spending
21951s their points here I mean there's
21954s technically three games left in the day
21958s that is incredibly aggressive if they
21960s going for it I mean and it hasn't really
21961s worked for them they've kind of sucked
21963s today so they keep picking this comp and
21965s I'm 100% sold on it Alliance not burning
21969s any points here is a little bit
21970s concerning to me I I would have liked to
21973s see them go for a zyphon or a sand
21975s siphon again maybe the sand siphon just
21977s cost too much cuz they've played it too
21978s many times today so that's why they're a
21981s avoiding it they also could have gone
21983s down the monk alley and the reason I
21985s think the monk alley would have been
21986s good is because you don't paint a Target
21989s on your back cuz there's a lot of the
21990s monk vder comps in play so I I've got to
21993s say this I actually uh like alliance's
21995s pick here even though it costs them Zero
21997s Hero points right now uh to come in and
21999s pick up this uh Viper comp uh if you do
22002s remember all the way back in the
22004s beginning of World it was J team who
22006s pioneered the Viper counter to the monk
22009s comp and look at this Lobby there are a
22013s lot of Monk comps coming through so I
22017s think Alliance here being on the tail
22019s end of that pick seeing that there's
22022s enough monks for there to be a ban out
22024s for it makes a smart decision goes all
22026s right if it's not broke don't fix it I
22029s mean I honestly it's been so long since
22032s i' I've had a mon I forgot that like the
22034s Vier Tac comp is one of the things that
22036s Force monk out of the meta I actually
22039s totally forgot in my head it was Sans
22041s siphon but it was Sanson plus Tess uh
22044s Viper com Viper but like really shut the
22047s this whole thing down so yeah it's cool
22050s to see my real question here for you is
22053s do you think we're going to see any old
22055s school Attack on Titan comps like the
22057s Yoto once points start to get a little
22060s bit scarce and monks start to show up a
22062s little bit
22063s more are we going to see Yoto cuz I it's
22066s been a hot minute some Yoto and she's
22068s very good in final circles I think monk
22070s valder coming to the comp actually makes
22072s it impossible for Yodo uh to find their
22075s way into the comp and here's why uh the
22077s changes that got made to Yodo ages ago
22080s where after her first slash she is
22082s completely vulnerable to a grab uh and
22085s the fact that b can also spear her out
22087s of ultimate uh as well after that first
22090s slash just leaves her kind of in limbo
22093s if you will right um the the changes
22096s before where she gets that ultimate
22098s where instead of it's the number of dead
22100s bodies around you that dictate how much
22102s bonus damage you get it's the number of
22104s enemy players that are Left Alive was
22106s really really strong we saw Yodo come
22108s back in um the only thing that really
22111s kind of keeps Yodo alive in a comp that
22113s synergizes well with it right now is
22115s Faria and Faria has just fallen off so
22119s so
22120s hard a GG down at the mines GG are down
22126s I do believe I think they're the mines
22128s yeah and they are getting dropped on by
22130s so many teams down here in Shadow Jade
22133s this is this is what we talked about for
22134s Alliance though this is why this is a
22136s double-edged
22137s sword everybody knows where GG
22141s drops yeah so GG just change it up that
22145s was really smart by GG they have dropped
22147s some a bunch of teams though but yeah I
22148s was going to say this is the problem
22149s though is they have dropped down below
22152s here's the thing though if you look at
22154s this map and you see that there's nobody
22156s spawning up by uh secret
22159s tunnel you you kind of have a good idea
22162s of where GG spawns outside of secret
22164s tunnel on the very few rare occasions
22166s that they do Shadow Jade is one of them
22168s which is why we're going to see four
22169s teams on them here at Shadow Jade and
22172s look at this ggc's that four people have
22174s dropped on them ug on the hunt already
22177s this is this is bad and crucially uh it
22180s opens up a ton of space for Alliance cuz
22182s they dropped into cestro with no teams
22185s on them yeah no Alliance are sitting
22188s very happy off the back of this one now
22189s CGS has been able to grab himself some
22191s fist weapons and a star uh Free's
22193s actually got a purple a blue P sword and
22196s some armor but CGS really needs to get
22197s some armor a just going to grab himself
22199s a little bit of goodies here it looks
22201s like they've been able to break away
22202s from this one but Alliance dropping in
22204s hot on top of E
22206s seeing if they can grab some early kills
22208s haven't really got many of that Al
22210s charge built up yet as actually cookies
22212s putting some pressure on to ny7 he's
22213s lost a lot of armor probably wants to go
22215s for a cheeky reset if he can as Alliance
22218s actually got onto XJ XJ pinned against
22220s the wall going incredibly low here gets
22222s through the window to try and break away
22224s he's able to hold Revenge has gone down
22226s in the middle of the fight as well
22228s Alliance have kind of fumbled there they
22230s not stuck the kill finally taking down
22232s XI built up a little bit more rage onto
22234s my7 now cookie going to be the next
22236s opening here for them going to knock him
22238s back they want to try and get revenge up
22240s on his feet but it looks like they're
22242s just going to have to cool it and run
22244s away and tell Revenge to revive himself
22247s unless they can slide in Yuma's actually
22249s made his way in Cookie's looking to try
22251s and play interrupt here reveng is going
22253s to get picked up Cookie they know
22254s exactly where he's going can they stop
22256s the revive in time as they are going to
22259s jump in we actually see Walker take down
22261s L there with the shark yeah W for the
22265s third party
22267s this is this is actually huge for
22268s Alliance they need to bait them over
22271s into ewg's cookie here uh so that they
22273s can back away but Alliance crucially
22275s does have that one ultimate online which
22277s could help them into the engagement with
22279s wbg depending on what wbg is currently
22282s bringing to Bear Alliance trying to keep
22284s Yuma alive as Sleepwalker comes in here
22287s it is going to be wbg with a vein breath
22289s though so Alliance needs to step away
22291s and ny7 going to go down here off the
22294s back of WB b g wbg trying to keep the
22298s pressure up on the rest of Alliance
22300s crucially for Alliance though because
22301s they were able to get that Resurrection
22302s on Revenge they do still have their
22305s early game Resurrection here A charged
22307s R&B coming in there off of the dagger
22309s Sleepwalker though with a huge uppercut
22312s the very tippity top of the uppercut
22314s there off of those nunchucks actually
22316s going to catch Revenge out Alliance Yuma
22318s the last remaining member of Alliance
22320s here will go down so now ewg goes down
22322s wbg going to find multiple eliminations
22325s fors here they're going to go to four
22327s and Alliance going to have to head back
22328s and look for that Resurrection GG coming
22331s down here knowing that Alliance is
22333s probably nearby they see the Main's
22335s breath they want to come find that
22337s action but GT to be careful here yeah
22340s the has been time for you run a little
22343s bit of stat time for you Alliance pick
22345s this comp 36% of the time they have an
22348s average score placement of like I think
22351s it was
22352s 9.3 wbg disappointing team they don't
22356s they've only got a 2% pick rate on this
22358s comp right now but it does average 10
22360s points now I will say the stats are
22362s lower so you have lower game rates as
22364s long as those games stick they they're
22366s good but alliance with a lot of games
22368s played still averaging a very high skill
22370s uh score me actually very skilled at
22372s this comp so keep your eyes on Alliance
22375s while it's not the sand siphon this is
22376s definitely their best comp the blind
22378s eight so looking very good for them but
22381s getting hassled down early is going to
22383s really cost them going forwards as we do
22385s do see the team's breaking away from drg
22388s drg still got a lot of work to do as o
22391s closing the gap between them and the
22394s Front Runners right now puts them up to
22397s 59.1 actually you know they're closer
22399s than that that's uh their star 62.1 yeah
22403s so they're only a couple kills off
22404s actually securing themsel Match Point
22406s viability as long as Alliance or GG
22409s don't end the game
22411s here yeah this is going to be such a
22413s tight game across the board here
22416s Alliance though going to respawn in if
22418s I'm team Alliance right now I'm playing
22420s this blind datcom uh I'm looking to go
22422s out uh go ahead and get reset in terms
22425s of gear probably not go and take one of
22428s these Yang fights I I think the best
22429s thing that Alliance can do is look to
22431s secure an early game Spirit Well for
22434s themselves uh that way or it's Ambush
22437s Yang
22438s yeah and try and catch like one player
22441s or two players isolate them from their
22443s team and kill them yeah uh it's going to
22445s be very interesting to see how Alliance
22447s bounces back uh from that early game
22449s deficit as they are behind in terms of
22451s gear Zone one is collapsing on zone two
22453s we see JL here going to pick themselves
22455s up a bounty it's going to go on to
22458s ewg JL currently with zero eliminations
22461s this game this is the team that dropped
22463s onto Alliance in game number five and
22466s absolutely hunted them out of the lobby
22469s uh to much fanfare from the rest of
22471s these teams keeping the game alive for
22473s everybody else but now slow down they
22476s said look we're going to bite that
22477s bullet once we're not going to do it
22478s twice yeah and the good news right now
22481s for Alliance and GG is honestly it's not
22483s a massively high scoring early game
22485s Bower uh sorry wbg had five kills four
22489s kills on to ug that is a gap for is very
22491s closable for these teams they do need to
22494s do something but obviously Alliance
22495s losing that fight getting third partied
22498s suffering from uh the main issue which
22501s we saw wolves suffer from today which is
22503s you take too long in a fight and a third
22504s party comes in just tid as you up
22506s because you haven't been able to execute
22508s on your kills and move on and reset with
22510s the soul
22511s blooms it's that really slowed them down
22514s and now they need to make sure that they
22516s can get back into this game K I've
22518s actually popped the the ban breath
22519s ultimate breaken out by Sleep Walker
22521s here going for the transform and I think
22522s qgg might just be in a little bit of
22525s trouble th storm is going to come down
22527s but qgg finds himself in the rear grab
22529s into the Bane's breath they go though
22531s Sleep Walker somehow doesn't take the
22533s damage from it poison splash es have
22536s gone off and I believe that's actually
22537s affecting Sleep Walker here qgg finally
22541s able to learn to ATT Dodge away from
22542s these hands is going to break away for
22544s now but and again just so much damage
22546s Landing onto Sleep Walker with that
22547s poison just absolutely chunking him out
22549s and now K have G on in for the fight the
22552s cube is used by Walker to break away but
22555s he HS another poison Splash as well from
22558s these mushrooms and that is just getting
22559s really dicey for him he needs to go in
22561s for the reset but they're not giving him
22563s the opportunity and he's just going to
22564s burn down to the dot qgg goes a little
22567s bit low here but that's going to be the
22568s kill secured onto wbg K able to get on
22572s their fourth kill they're looking for a
22574s little bit more
22576s here not able to really full commit
22578s right now Jing in a bit of danger and
22581s down he goes K able to kill himself all
22584s of those kills feeling very happy with
22585s himself yeah we've been hypercritical of
22588s K today but in their previous game they
22590s made up for a lot of their earlier
22592s mistakes and now they're on to six
22594s eliminations and only about eight points
22598s away from actually securing themselves
22601s that position to be on Match Point
22603s heading into game seven if we do see
22605s game seven so K coming in realizing they
22608s have made a lot of mistakes today and
22610s really trying to make up for it it's my
22613s favorite Circle I like to talk about
22616s this one this is the circle where a
22618s massive chunk of the circle is in the
22619s water meaning that the zone is smaller
22622s than it should be at this point in the
22623s game so what people come out of those
22626s reala yangs and they've got that debuff
22628s on
22629s them they are going to find each other
22631s very quickly I this can lead to a blood
22633s buff look look at what alliance is doing
22635s here this is exactly what I said they
22637s realistically needed to do here right
22638s they needed to make their way up here uh
22641s towards this Spirit Well because of the
22643s comp that they're playing uh unless they
22645s go into one of those three monk comps
22647s inside the real of Yang it's really just
22649s not favored for them whatsoever and they
22651s need to take every advantage that they
22653s can get so them going for The Spirit
22654s Well absolutely absolutely intelligent
22656s decision on their part I think they're
22657s doing exactly what they need to be to
22658s get back into this game if they secure
22660s The Spirit Well with that Mystic being
22663s able to go out and hunt the teams that
22664s actually lose inside the r of gang is
22666s going to be huge for them but we are
22667s going to take this R of yangang here
22669s it's going to be KLA versus Team gg gg
22673s here in a good position they've got lots
22675s of gear they do have a very aggressive
22677s comp to take inside this realm of Yang
22679s here they need to go ahead and get
22680s something going for themselves here as
22682s they are on zero kills the huge whis
22685s coming out from K just locking down CJs
22688s here but K going to clean up 330 as well
22692s and GG is going to find themselves in a
22694s nightmare scenario where they have zero
22698s eliminations and yang depletion if
22700s things do not turn their way very
22702s quickly unfortunately it does not look
22704s like they are going to as lxm CJs
22706s completely separated one Fen shove left
22709s here for CJs he goes to 1 HP and a dream
22711s is able to turn some of that damage onto
22713s CJs but the furin shove comes out from
22715s the other side and GG is going to go
22718s down here in the realm of Yang with zero
22720s eliminations heading out with that Yang
22722s depletion into a short-ended map and an
22725s alliance who has secured that Spirit
22727s Well
22730s I it's nice to see K kind of returning
22733s to form because they are a bloody good
22735s team it's just this split has been a
22737s little bit underwhelming from them and
22740s it's nice to see them kind of find that
22742s form again and and show us the K that we
22744s want you
22746s shutting down GG is huge as well but
22748s Alliance here still not really achieve
22751s much a single kill under their belt
22753s taking a fight here versus drg but
22754s they're very hesitant to go for it very
22756s hesitant to full commit onto them they
22759s do throw out the ear connecting onto a
22761s couple of members and are they going to
22762s be a to actually get the burst off
22764s trying to get inside that met Kakashi
22766s very low does jump inside they still
22768s have my7 ultimate to use Alliance they
22771s need to make this fight last they need
22773s to make it work and they don't want to
22774s be getting third party they are
22776s desperate for that mvp here if they
22778s don't win here A bunch more teams are
22781s going to follow them over that finish
22782s line there's going to be the charm I
22783s believe it went a little bit wide didn't
22785s make it connection so going to see the
22787s transform come out DG just outlasting
22790s Alliance right now in this fight they're
22792s going to have to Port away now that
22793s they've burnt drg's ultimates and maybe
22796s see if there's a re-enter angle ny7
22798s still holding that ultimate so they
22799s definitely know now the opportunity WX
22801s 98 being chased down can ny7 find that
22804s opening with the Viper ultimate still
22808s too much terrain too many trees to make
22809s this really connect Kashi now going to
22812s get locked down by Viper he's going to
22814s have to look to try and make a break
22815s away for it and it looks like he's been
22816s able to do so Alliance just struggling
22820s to translate The Kills this has been a
22821s big issue for our our blind dat comps is
22824s they don't have the burst and the
22826s sustain is just too high on the other
22828s comps right now but Alliance struggling
22831s to find those openings and those kills a
22832s single kill to their name is not enough
22835s enough to get MVP especially when K are
22837s on N kills yeah Alliance here trying to
22840s convert this over and make something
22841s happen for themselves especially while
22843s they've got that Mystic might but they
22845s just haven't been able to do it the
22846s terrain playing heavily into that F2 for
22848s the hottie keeping Yuma from being able
22850s to get that huge ultimate that they were
22852s hoping for sorry ny7 on the Viper but WX
22855s 98 now going extremely low drg in a bit
22858s of a bad position the old going to be
22860s connected onto WX 98 there's no way for
22862s them to get to that earn the Parry on to
22865s huge huge damage about to come in from y
22868s as we do see wx9 go down we see Kakashi
22871s go down and this is exactly what
22873s alliance needed right here this is going
22875s to get them some much needed gear this
22877s is going to get them some eliminations
22879s under their belt as they start to find
22881s themselves here in this game crucially
22884s those blooms also going to start getting
22886s them their ults back online so they can
22887s start looking for those potential good
22889s third parties GG here with 2 minutes
22892s left remaining on the Ang completion
22893s still zero kills to the name but K all
22896s of a sudden qgg just getting completely
22899s blitzed down they've been having a
22900s really good game nine eliminations to
22902s their name and GG just comes in and
22904s cleans one up the uh sorry the Yang
22907s depletion going to be cleansed off of
22909s the Tami here as GG looks to hunt down
22911s the rest of the members of klaa Walker
22914s get the elimination here on to 17 and
22917s it's going to be CJs who goes in and
22919s gets the cleanse here uh but we need
22923s they need to be careful here cuz GG I do
22924s believe believe team wolves nearby big
22926s third party potential for them uh I
22928s haven't seen their dark tight coins they
22930s do have enough to just buy a member back
22932s here if I'm team GG I just look to
22934s prioritize a shop uh and buy my other
22936s member back into the team as we cut over
22937s to Team B da trading blows uh with the
22940s members of wbg wbg was off to a really
22943s good start early on and then find
22945s themselves getting hunted down uh by the
22948s members of K andon lands incredible
22951s damage onto Sleepwalker Sleepwalker
22953s immediately going to go down but it's
22955s going to be uh to wg's Jing or no sorry
22958s Bow's PE actually gets that Jing picks
22959s up somebody else here as bada now forced
22962s to take JL who comes in for the third
22964s party the Tes going to come through the
22967s Bell already used here has huge damage
22969s coming out B Ron completely separated
22972s from the rest of the team JL more than
22973s happy to pick up the
22975s scraps right B's mermaid just like ran
22978s off just went and did their own thing
22980s left them alone Alliance though finding
22983s isolated players and securing kills onto
22986s them that puts them up to five they
22988s still got a lot of work to do but they
22989s definitely equalized out the score a
22991s little bit off the back of this one so
22992s they're going to be feeling very very
22993s happy with themselves GG it's been a
22996s very quiet game for
22998s them had a couple of struggles at the
23000s beginning of the game and uh those
23002s struggles are about to get way worse
23003s unless they can buy back their players
23006s cuz they are about to time out no it's
23008s only one player it's only one player
23009s sorry ignore me ignore everything I just
23011s said they are they are chilling it's
23014s fine
23016s yeah we're going to see X1 lose two of
23017s their members to Yang depletion as well
23019s and that's going to be X1 out of this
23021s game um I there's I don't think there's
23025s any world uh where some of these teams
23027s in the bottom can realistically make
23028s something happen now especially if
23030s you're X1 uh where you've gone out I
23032s mean if you have an explosive game next
23033s game maybe that's if we see a next game
23036s though but GG here are going to get 330
23037s back in they're also going to be able to
23039s get their body and get all of their gear
23040s back so they're not going to find
23041s themselves behind and Alliance yet again
23043s coming to pressure The Spirit Well here
23046s on one of the best comps to do it you
23047s can just spend ultimate after ultimate
23049s here get the reset from The Spirit Well
23051s and be in a really good position B's
23053s Peak just breathing a sigh of relief as
23057s the movement Tech that was used there
23059s was actually a slide it keeps them from
23061s hitting them out of the Bush and
23062s revealing their position here and we're
23064s see GG here trying to grief ewg away
23067s from this uh an alliance with Draco
23071s storm online now going to look to come
23073s out and start griefing some of these
23075s teams going to be in a really good
23077s position post these realm of yangs to
23080s hunt down some of these stragglers with
23082s that Yang depletion Alliance doing what
23083s blind dat does best as we head into the
23085s real of Yang it's going to be wolves
23086s versus ewg yeah wolves going to need to
23089s win this fight they are right now they
23091s are in 11th place in the standings they
23093s started in first second from bottom it
23097s has been a Mighty Fall for wolves this
23099s could be the return of their comeback L
23101s gets caught out for the moment they are
23103s looking for another grab theying get the
23104s double slam down I don't think they're
23106s going to be able to get it so they just
23107s get the punch off from the N HQ cubes up
23109s breaks away and now the attention is
23111s turning elsewhere but Zen going very low
23113s cookie gets caught out Z needs to pop
23115s the Bell he's not even going to get the
23116s opportunity
23118s ewg Find that opening and they punish
23121s hard and fast now it looks like it's
23123s going to be wolves getting turned onto
23126s cookie being a menace he first shut down
23129s Alliance earlier it looks like he's
23131s going to continue to be a nuisance is L
23133s actually getting a little bit bull here
23134s by HQ NQ being a bit of a menace right
23137s now as wolves able to hold fast but now
23139s just an absolute surge forward from L to
23142s kill the kill ZK cannot survive that one
23145s slamed by the meteor and ewg win the
23149s ryang yeah ewg's Target selection here
23152s was absolutely beautiful they just go
23155s yeah that's fine you can keep getting
23156s the regrab onto our teammate we're just
23158s going to use the Z here get or sorry use
23161s the zipping here get lots of healing
23163s onto that teammate and we're just going
23165s to keep pressure up on the Monk and not
23167s really care because you're forced to use
23169s that vda old every time he goes for the
23171s slam to get the reset up for the regrab
23174s and when you're in that situation those
23176s two other players just have free reign
23178s to Target down the Monk and play it out
23181s really well as we pop over here to K
23183s versus the likes of ug K coming out here
23186s with the Draco storm wbg losing one of
23189s their members to it as well and K
23191s continues to stay on a tear this game
23193s with 13 elim Elations the Gap where
23196s Alliance can make something happen here
23198s closing very quickly if you see Alliance
23200s on the top side of the map there with
23202s their five eliminations there Draco
23203s storm not near any of these teams K
23206s though continuing to keep the pressure
23208s up 13 eliminations they're well over or
23212s no sorry not quite yeah they're
23213s absolutely over the threshold
23215s now no I I misquoted they're one kill
23218s away from threshold uh sorry quick M ma
23222s is hard brother ma is hard ma is hard
23225s don't worry it happens to me all the
23228s time actually on other shows I've been
23230s banned from doing maths on air my have
23234s just Banned Me luckily uh ug also s
23238s points away from uh being in that
23240s qualification range it is very very
23243s close for two more teams to be there
23245s heading into the next game with four
23246s teams would be crazy uh jdg not far
23249s behind either as they're up to uh 60
23251s points as well very quickly can find
23255s themselves five more points uh if
23256s they're able to cleanse this Yang
23257s depletion and also find themselves on
23259s Match Point if we head into game number
23261s seven ug's denu uh just absolutely in
23265s the worst position he can find himself
23266s here with the likes of ewg Draco storm
23269s chasing him down here there we go the ZF
23271s going to be invested no place to go the
23273s ult on as well uh just insult to injury
23277s there coming in from cookie with the
23279s ultimate to clean it up as we head over
23282s to um Team puppies here not in a good
23285s position yet again with the Yang
23287s depletion 3 minutes to go zero
23289s eliminations to their name a lot of work
23293s for these guys to do they got some money
23295s and jdg are actually on their tail JG
23297s also having that uh ryang debuff I
23300s believe K may have caught their
23301s attention though not sure that' be the
23304s greatest move in the world but here we
23305s go looks like wolves and jdg are
23307s probably going to cross PA pass fairly
23308s soon Alliance also in the area if
23311s Alliance play this patiently they can
23313s third party very effectively here but it
23316s looks like they're looking to open up
23317s jdg are going to reveal themsel though
23319s to Alliance and Alliance immediately
23321s back off they know that they're a third
23323s party comp so they can secure kills at
23325s the end
23327s here wolves though may be looking for it
23330s jdg everyone is playing this with bited
23332s breath it looks like wolves have uh
23334s called a back off for the moment they
23336s think this is getting a little bit too
23337s dicey for them and they have the money
23339s just to buy rebirths that's like if if
23342s there's any in the shops they have the
23343s money to buy some so crucially though I
23347s was say crucially they they need to get
23349s Yang depletion off of one of them though
23354s yeah to make that even remotely viable
23357s for them jdg here in a position with
23359s that Yang depletion going to have to
23360s take a fight as well and Alliance
23362s playing this super slow doing a really
23364s good job potentially waiting for that
23365s third party and JL who's coming in JL no
23368s longer with the Draco storm either even
23370s odds across the board for these two
23372s teams jdg trying to make something
23374s happen we're going to see the wuen port
23376s being invested here and jdg going to
23377s keep the pressure up Alliance nowhere
23379s nearby but wolves waiting in the wings
23382s as well looking for a good third party
23384s opportunity wbg also nearby two TI going
23387s to go ahead and get the cleanse there
23389s off of the ear as jl's vvv looks to be
23392s caught out entirely by themselves but no
23395s we're going to see another member of txj
23396s come down from the Treetops here two
23398s tick though really setting things up
23400s here for jdg jdg doing a really good job
23403s of keeping the pressure up onto all of
23406s these members of JL we're going to see
23408s ewg start to break in as well wolves is
23410s going to be here coming in to create
23412s some pressure onto all of these fights
23415s and Alliance has backed away alliance
23418s with the perfect potential for a third
23420s party nowhere to be seen I think this is
23423s honestly the biggest fumble by Alliance
23425s this could be what cost them this game I
23428s think if they had been here on time they
23431s might have been able to actually
23432s translate it into something now showing
23435s up so this could be their opportunity W
23438s ZK very very low jdg keeping the
23440s pressure up they got that Dreadful whale
23442s is just making so much space and I can't
23445s see if Alliance have actually joined
23446s into the frame wolves get a double slam
23448s down though securing a kill H comes the
23451s Tactical nuke lock down onto everyone
23454s and Alliance will punish with a bunch of
23456s kills and suddenly slinging up the
23459s scoreboard absolutely beautiful that is
23461s what I wanted to see from Alliance
23464s just a Flawless use of a
23467s viper yeah huge tactical nuke coming in
23469s from Alliance the very quick clean up
23471s and a very quick Port out here from the
23473s Wen to allow them to reset while they
23475s let these teams continue to fight wol ZK
23478s not going to give any points to another
23479s team as he does go down here Yuma though
23481s crucially needing a massive reset GG
23484s trying to catch out one of the members
23486s and it's ny7 who's g off to the side
23489s here 's SS hiding Down Below in the bush
23492s though nobody knows they're there I
23493s think they're going to s sacrifice ny7
23496s to the likes of Team GG to keep the game
23498s alive for themselves they be careful K
23501s shows up K might buy Alliance a little
23504s bit of time here but it looks like KLA
23506s trying to turn on them as well GG going
23507s to take the opportunity here to take a
23509s reset and let K do a little bit of work
23513s ny7 Airborne actually able to get back
23516s across to his team this is Big B big
23518s brain plays coming in from Team Alliance
23520s here they play this so well youa with
23522s the threat now as well and GG behind La
23524s has got to be very careful about how
23526s they approach this fight if they
23527s pressure into alliance Alliance puts
23530s them in a sandwich between them and the
23532s members of Team GG Alliance plays this
23536s out so well they're able to keep all the
23538s members of their team alive look for
23540s that reset and look for another clean
23543s third party that was absolutely Flawless
23546s from Alliance really really well played
23548s they do need to deal with K though K are
23550s the currently the biggest thing blocking
23552s them from an MVP position seven kills in
23555s Alliance jump down ewg give them a
23557s couple of pokes and they decide that is
23559s not going to be worth it I think
23560s Alliance want to build up their rage
23562s once again get those ultimates back
23564s online because the third party and when
23566s I think of a viper map I think of I
23569s literally think of here this just
23572s there's no better place than this season
23573s one Viper sitting in the furwood trees
23576s dropping down Ting entire lobbies this
23579s is quintessential Viper location and we
23582s just saw Alliance exec on it perfectly
23585s yeah this is this is where we coined the
23587s phrase the Tactical nuke I mean there's
23590s no better map for Alliance to find the
23592s victory uh there's no better final
23595s Circle for them coming up here into sun
23596s Wings rest for them they they show us
23599s exactly what we call the Tactical nuke
23601s and I mean ny7 was in the perfect
23603s position nobody expected that to come in
23605s oh my goodness wbg Sleepwalker caught
23607s out here by ny7 the last one of the last
23610s remaining members here of wbg and
23611s Alliance not going to let him go this is
23613s free spice for Alliance they're going to
23615s go ahead invest the ultimate there the
23617s one that uses the least percentage here
23620s but we are going to see Sleepwalker get
23621s stunned out walk into the zone and it's
23623s just range weapons Galore wbg
23625s Sleepwalker has got to try to go
23626s somewhere but the Ban's breath is not
23628s where you want to be if you're the big
23629s monk right now and Alliance just comes
23632s in and I do believe that is going to be
23634s the poison darts coming in there off of
23637s that repeating crossbow and Alliance
23639s cleans up their eighth elimination of
23641s the game wbg goes to a single play
23645s that is very nice there for the side of
23647s Alliance cheeky little kill but maybe
23650s they didn't expect to get but they got
23651s regardless going to spend a little bit
23653s of that do secure themselves some good
23655s EAS as K continue their snowball though
23660s this is the major issue for Alliance K
23662s going to move in they actually spot out
23664s GG po the ultimate there they are just
23666s making sure that GG do not get close
23668s enough GG do fire back there with her
23669s own F Ren sh in response this is where
23673s Alliance needs to come in little dicey
23674s they've got the Draco storm though on
23676s the K ult refreshed as well and now this
23679s is just going to be even harder DJs he
23681s may be going down his furen shs have run
23684s out and so has his time K secure the
23691s kill this is going to be so tight K here
23693s with the Draco storm if Alliance had
23696s their ultimate active there that would
23697s have been such a clutch position for
23700s them to rotate in for on the third party
23702s but they're thinking about the late game
23704s they want to go all the way in they want
23705s to look for that big tactical nuke they
23707s want to play for that big late game like
23709s Alliance likes to do here and they have
23712s got some of those crucial Soul Jades we
23714s talk about all of the time right here
23716s with these dual blades being able to use
23718s that to shove people in the zone
23720s especially off the back of a really good
23722s Viper roll can be absolutely
23724s gamechanging but they need to slow down
23726s the war machine that is K right now 14
23729s eliminations GG's 330 caught in the
23731s corner flipped over the shoulder K will
23733s go to 15 Alliance has got to start
23736s picking up some of these eliminations
23738s GG's lxm trying to flush Alliance out
23741s here make them pay for the elimination
23743s that they picked up onto one of their
23744s other teammates but they're not going to
23745s be able to find it as they get forced
23747s from the treetop here and Alliance
23749s continues to look for the opportune
23751s moment to come out on top Alliance doing
23754s everything they can to make sure that
23756s they are going to be the Victor here
23758s today those eight eliminations though
23761s looking a little slim with K currently
23764s sitting at 15 36 seconds still remaining
23766s on that Draco storm theyve got to do
23768s something to stem the tide it's so hard
23771s for Alliance here they are dealing with
23774s an incredibly stacked K but also one who
23777s have already done a lot of the groundw
23779s for this Final Moments and with 2
23781s minutes and 30 well 2 minutes 50 left on
23784s the clock K sitting pretty gold armor on
23787s to qg gold armor on to 17s they karumi
23791s who's going to be keeping them alive and
23792s they there uh to is going to be doing
23794s all of the damage for them have been set
23797s up with all the survivability possible
23799s for themselves right now I have I have a
23804s I have an excitement for Alliance but it
23806s looks like they may just wait this one
23808s out a little bit longer but K they want
23810s to keep the aggression up now the good
23811s news is the Draco storm has timed out
23813s for the other teams so don't have to
23815s deal with this one now my7 comes in and
23817s just face checks K loses half of his
23819s armor for it as well is going to get
23822s healed back up though by the woen
23824s shields uh Shield Refresh on the Wind
23826s walls Alliance go back down to the low
23828s ground they're holding it up but
23829s realistically Alliance actually want to
23831s be on the high ground they want to be up
23832s on the top of one of those trees with
23835s their Viper to keep themselves going
23837s everybody else is getting a little bit
23838s closer kg gets caught out by a dreadful
23840s whale but it doesn't really do too much
23842s damage to him now you do see Yuma has
23844s jumped in with the stun no it's actually
23846s not it's JL who have jumped in with a
23848s stun they've secured a kill ewg have
23850s answered back as well ny7 waiting for
23853s the prime opportunity to drop that
23855s tactical nuke on the lobby maybe waiting
23857s for the zone to move one little smidge
23859s forwards but every second they wait is
23862s every second someone else could be
23863s picking a kill up and denying them they
23865s need so many kills to close this Lobby
23869s out and it is just a waiting game as K
23872s continue to hold this High Ground
23873s forcing away the members of ewg from
23877s that high ground and gets knocked out
23879s the tree has to squirrel his way back up
23881s to the top but he is just being gate
23883s kept from jumping in and K open up onto
23886s him he's forced the Panic ultimate
23888s that's not what he needed and then they
23889s jump in with the Viper Wen pulled out it
23893s was a complete fumble and a complete
23895s miscommunication by Alliance ny7 can't
23898s find the reset as JL go down to ewg in
23902s the low ground every second wasted is
23906s starting to get costly here for Alliance
23908s they've lost their um they lost their
23911s Tessa as well so they've lost most of
23913s their Crow control all ultimates are
23915s down at this point I don't know if
23917s Alliance are going to be able to do this
23918s anymore this is too much for them K was
23922s just too big as K going to throw down
23925s the sandstorm in the middle of the Zone
23927s splitting everything in half Kiki finds
23929s himself caught out and K should be able
23931s to punish for that kill I don't think
23933s anyone's going to steal this one away
23935s Kumo not going to do anything as cookie
23937s secures the kill onto jdg GG get knocked
23940s out in the middle of the fight and
23941s actually ewg is starting to steal these
23943s kills they're starting to Menace
23944s Alliance are out of the lobby and this
23946s is just going to be K's game they get to
23949s play and you are all just
23951s watching K take it
23956s all K here able to finally get across
23959s into that match point territory they
23962s also keep back to yeah they keep two
23965s other teams from being able to secure it
23967s by less than a point and we're going to
23969s come into game number seven with three
23972s teams above the match point threshold
23975s Alliance has got to spend some points
23977s into this next game they have to but K
23979s are looking terrifying right now they
23980s just won game five and game six like
23984s these guys are looking terrifying going
23986s into the last two games they have found
23989s their form and yeah I I completely agree
23991s with you I think Alliance are being too
23994s passive with their point expenditure I
23995s think in their head they were like oh we
23997s want to make sure if we were in the L
23999s late last few games we've got the points
24000s to spend and I will worry wolves have
24003s zero points wolves went all in on a comp
24007s which we don't think they should have
24009s gone all in
24010s on and yeah going forward it's there's
24013s two games left in the day and it is a
24016s lot of work for them to do I'm very
24018s excited to see how these last few games
24020s go ah look I this is in I don't think
24024s there's a world where wolves can come
24026s back from this realistically oh no
24027s wolves are
24029s cooked it's it's done they're they're
24032s only saving grace they're so far down
24034s the leaderboard that
24036s uh
24038s PRI yeah I get that especially when you
24041s have zero points that really helps you
24044s but like man they were 30 points off a
24046s while ago and now they're like to be
24049s fair they're probably like 18 points off
24051s so if they have like a really good game
24053s seven and no one wins then they're in
24055s the running for game eight no they're
24056s still 25 points off didn't they get any
24059s points that game they got 1.5 oh my word
24063s how many tals did K get in game number
24066s in 16 sorry game six 17 18 19 20 let me
24071s know ABC or D in that twitch chat check
24074s your with boxes because that's where you
24076s will be giving your random goodies
24078s talking about one team scoring low TAA
24081s score bloody
24085s eye yeah uh I I I think it all ends in
24089s this next game I'm going to be realistic
24091s the the tear that K is on um they are
24095s just absolutely running through uh we're
24098s going to see a lot of these teams
24100s looking to shut K down
24102s open they were point four oh yeah I I
24105s told you they kept two teams
24106s realistically like one point away from
24109s qualifying um so klaa setting themselves
24113s up for Success here and what's funny is
24114s previous to these two games we were
24116s hyper critical of K's performance today
24120s yeah no I really was I I felt like
24121s they've been uh very ler in the in the
24125s in the summer split and I'm glad to see
24128s cuz I I you know me I've always been a
24129s big fan of this team ever since they
24131s first showed up on the scene got a lot
24132s of love in my heart for
24134s K but this summer was not their split
24136s and then suddenly something is awoken
24139s within them the crazy thing is is
24142s JL right now on five points away from
24146s Match Point like they might not even get
24147s a shot at taking the whole thing like I
24151s got some serious concerns for JL I mean
24153s a bunch of are knocked out and the only
24154s like real front runner that we have in
24157s our heads is like GG right now the
24158s defending Champions but even they are
24160s looking a little bit lost after that
24162s game uh I mean I I we're not keeping
24166s Alliance out whatsoever Alliance
24168s actually does really well this game even
24171s off the back of a pretty terrible start
24173s for them they do exactly what they need
24176s to do they come in they find probably
24178s one of the best tactical nukes we've
24180s seen off of a viper Al in a very long
24183s time in the professional League here
24185s because so many teams are well aware of
24187s it ready for the setup uh I think
24189s realistically actually what happens here
24191s for them in the end is they have set
24192s themselves up for a good spot there's
24193s only two of them uh but they do have
24196s that Soul Jade for the dual blades where
24197s they're going to be able to shove whole
24198s teams into the Zone if they land that
24200s stun what you see happens is ny7 gets
24204s clipped by a scale Rush that was just
24206s somebody trying to go Airborne they fall
24209s from that and somebody looks up sees ny7
24213s in a fall before they can recover and
24216s decide to just throw the grapple onto
24218s them and then that was all she wrote
24220s there was nothing the rest of Alliance
24221s could have done for them at that point
24222s they're forced to spend the ultimate
24224s early and unfortunately it's just that
24226s one little clip from a scale Rush that
24228s separates them from K and being the ones
24230s who come out on top but K with 19
24233s eliminations huge game for them looks
24236s like it's going to be a Tami MVP with
24238s eight eliminations and
24240s 33,000 damage on cxz
24244s yeah really nice performance there from
24245s cxz on the Tammy crazy to see Tammy out
24250s damages toada really really big stuff
24254s bit the
24255s uh big game from K like two wins back to
24258s back like these guys just came out of
24260s nowhere they were I I honestly had them
24262s down and out for the day I really did
24264s like halfway through the day I was like
24265s these guys are done and like here's the
24268s crazy
24269s news I don't think there's a single play
24272s team who can't make make it to match
24274s point if we don't have game eight like
24276s if we go to game eight every one of
24279s these teams can technically make it ewg
24281s it have to be a it' have to be a
24283s historical game but they could
24284s technically do it there is enough points
24286s there we have a whole bunch of teams who
24288s realistically will make it for game
24290s eight if we get to game eight so
24292s Alliance GG and K the pressure is
24295s heavily on them and I mean you can see
24297s from alliance's performances in the last
24299s couple of games they were targeted
24301s obviously in game five and I don't think
24303s they really recovered like well enough
24305s in game six like they had a rough start
24308s and again this is the same issue we saw
24310s at Wolves at the beginning of the day
24313s they are not decisive enough on who
24315s they're picking in a fight and the
24316s fights are always very scattered
24317s therefore you don't get the kills quick
24319s enough and then the problem with that is
24321s once you don't get the kills quick
24322s enough other teams come in other teams
24324s going part of you and then suddenly you
24325s lose all of your progress at the
24327s beginning of the game and this is it
24329s wbg Alliance were not decisive enough on
24331s their fight versus ewg cookie gave them
24334s the complete run around like cookie was
24336s really really good at duing them there
24338s and then after that it was just you know
24341s it it was it was the wbg Tidy Up and
24344s Alliance then had to spend the next five
24347s to 8 minutes of the game catching up
24348s with everyone else in the lobby on Loot
24350s and they weren't getting the kills they
24352s they slowed down their progress they
24354s slowed down their snowball they weren't
24355s able to even look at jumping into R ANS
24358s and that's the issue you know if you go
24361s down early it's okay as long as it's
24364s really early like we saw GG do in the
24366s first game like go down early reset get
24369s back into the game if you go down like
24372s Midway hot or towards the end of the
24375s reset you're in trouble because now you
24377s basically an entire Zone behind and the
24379s rest of the
24381s lobby yeah I mean this was a tough game
24384s given the composition that they were
24385s playing too uh going down in the spot
24388s that they did hurt them but I think they
24390s made a phenomenal recovery honestly to
24393s pick up
24393s Elations that they did like the I think
24396s this became a game for them where it was
24398s like okay hey realistically I don't
24400s think we can win cuz they they certainly
24403s could have come in and just tried to to
24405s throw face into it but into K setup here
24408s I think they had to play for the end
24410s game in this circle here they had to
24411s look for that tactical nuk off of the
24413s Viper and again it it all comes down to
24415s another team that wasn't even aiming for
24418s them with that scale Rush where they
24420s just clip them as they're going up the
24422s side of the tree there and it sends them
24424s down a death spiral that there's no
24426s recovering from unfortunately and
24428s sometimes that's what it comes down to
24429s in ncka yeah I mean I totally agree on
24432s that front I do think you know you lost
24434s a lot of tempo though so it costed you
24435s heavily but yeah who did who kept their
24438s Tempo the whole way through was K was
24441s cxe on this tamy huge game 33,000 damage
24444s eight kills 20K damage with a pole sword
24447s as well like guy look absolutely amazing
24451s this such a such a good game from K and
24453s these
24454s guys I talk about like winding your
24456s sales quite a lot as like a saying but
24458s like K right now they don't have a wind
24461s in their sale they have a goddamn storm
24463s in their sale these guys have just
24465s stomped up the leaderboard pushed
24467s everybody out the way and said it's
24469s about me now I'm taking it today and
24472s this is their opportunity cuz I feel
24473s like if they don't do it here they are
24476s contesting a very chaotic Lobby cuz
24478s there's going to be a lot of people who
24480s are going to be qualifying after this
24481s game if we don't see G the alliance or k
24484s close it out yeah I mean absolutely if
24488s we go to game eight it is just going to
24490s be a free for all it is going to be a
24492s massive dog pile uh but I I I actually
24496s don't think we we go to g game eight
24498s realistically K like you said a storm
24501s quite literally in their sales the lobby
24504s needs to look to shut them down this
24507s game the problem with this is is if the
24510s lobby spends too many resources trying
24511s to shut down k it opens up a free roam
24515s for Alliance and GG but we're going to
24517s take a short break before we come back
24518s and find out just who's going to come
24520s out on top in game number seven
24525s [Music]
24538s [Music]
24549s [Music]
24583s [Applause]
24585s [Music]
24610s oh

24622s [Applause]
24631s [Music]
24639s [Music]
24664s welcome back ladies and gentlemen
24666s Alliance has done such a good job today
24668s of keeping cool calm and collected but
24672s we're going to see if they can do it
24673s again in game number seven as now KLA
24677s has blasted past them in only two games
24680s this is a team we've been hyper critical
24682s of all day today Alliance even bounces
24686s back from a rough game number five where
24689s JL hunts them out of the lobby they've
24692s got Smiles on their faces they are
24694s holding it together but now the pressure
24698s is
24699s on I mean it's K's world and we're all
24702s living in it at the moment these guys
24704s are honestly the last two games the
24708s momentum they've carried has been
24709s absolutely beautiful they've got to do
24711s it a third time though that's that's the
24713s tough thing is like these two MVPs they
24716s won kind of mean nothing unless they get
24718s the one that matters right like it was
24721s great these two MVPs have pulled them
24722s back into into this and actually giv
24724s them a shot at winning the title but
24726s they still need to find a third now and
24728s it's actually quite rare and I'm just
24730s going to use a bit of Statistics it's
24731s actually quite rare to see a team win
24732s three MVPs in a day like that's a big
24735s deal when that happens normally it's
24737s like two is a pretty common number we
24740s get uh I mean last pre-finals it was no
24742s one won more than once uh today until K
24746s that was also the case it's it's been OG
24749s Alliance jdg Baler then k k so
24753s to get a hattick back to back to back is
24756s going to be just such a beautiful story
24759s for
24761s them GG go on sorry oh no I was going to
24765s say it's a it's a tall order for K
24767s especially considering you're looking at
24770s the momentum that K has right now right
24773s these teams are not going to be looking
24775s to drop onto GG and Alliance like they
24778s did in this last game they have to be
24780s looking at Team K because if they don't
24783s stop that momentum right there there's a
24785s world where Alliance and GG just do
24787s middling in this game because of how
24790s stunted their momentum has been after
24792s the last two games there's not a world
24795s where if you let K go unchecked that
24798s they have a stunted just middling game
24801s right they are just coming in looking to
24804s crush this Lobby I think if you're
24806s coming in you're trying to save this
24808s Lobby for everybody else who isn't
24810s qualified in those top three spots right
24812s now on that Match Point you're looking
24814s at Team K this could be a disaster for
24817s team K because it just opens up free
24820s reign for Alliance and GG to do whatever
24823s uh I think the mentality is going to
24826s come out when we see the hero selections
24829s from GG and Alliance here at the start
24831s of game seven that is going to be the
24833s big telling Factor uh for what these
24836s teams are looking to do Alliance nine
24838s hero points spend them I want to see you
24840s play sand siphon yeah I
24843s I I agree although they you know the
24846s blind dat is one of their top comps I
24847s just they weren't playing it right man
24849s they were taking fights they weren't
24851s jumping into like third parties they
24852s were too slow to third parties honestly
24856s I know you've been quite positive about
24857s them I genuinely think they've L lost to
24859s the last few games even with a great
24861s recovery I think they were still quite
24863s lost in that game like they weren't
24864s decisive in any of the plays they made
24867s uh and that's what ultimately cost them
24868s a lot of tempo and they had to play
24870s catch up K I'm I've always said about
24873s these guys is they are decisive they
24875s like win or lose they just they they're
24877s doing it they they know but like we're
24879s going all out and it doesn't matter like
24882s we win or lose off it and that's what
24883s I've been a big fan about K this is all
24886s I'm going to say though I'm I'm going to
24887s play devil's advocate here when was the
24889s last time you saw a tactical Viper nuke
24892s ult net three eliminations in under 10
24895s seconds I'll give you that it was a very
24898s very good for ultimate I will never ever
24901s arue on you but it was not a good VI for
24903s ultimate I will argue on you played into
24906s that fight extremely
24908s well yeah I just I feel like one good
24911s moment I don't think NE necessarily
24914s makes up for like two bad games I think
24917s the position that they were put into
24920s with the comp that they were playing
24921s they had to play for the final moment in
24923s final Circle uh oh yeah I understand
24926s game plan yeah well cuz if you try to
24928s decisively throw into K or any other
24931s team at that point you just get cooked
24933s by K realistically I I'll I'll be
24935s completely honest um so I don't think
24937s Alliance played it bad I think it just
24939s ended up being a game that they couldn't
24942s do as much as they would have liked to
24945s do I think the okay I will give you this
24948s think if I'm honest I think I think the
24951s early fight was bad I think the early
24953s fight I will give you 100% um they they
24956s Dilly dallied a little too much on their
24958s target selection yeah and I think the
24960s snowball effect of that was what led to
24962s that point in the game it bought the
24963s time for K to pop off and I will say out
24966s of our three teams cuz we've you know
24968s we've had our our turn talking about K
24970s and uh and Alliance GG are the only team
24974s here who haven't had an MVP today
24977s they've just like casually their way
24979s into match point I like I would say
24982s they've been playing middling but they
24984s haven't been able to actually lock down
24985s a match point yet I think they've been
24986s playing pretty well today they've had a
24988s few bad games but I you know everyone's
24990s have all of our match point teams have
24992s had bad games games today at this point
24994s uh but I don't I want to see them
24997s actually properly pop off because we
24999s haven't seen the big pop off from GG yet
25002s as it looks like we're getting ready to
25003s go into game seven into hero selectors
25006s uh believe we're heading to pedor for
25007s this one no holl off staring night I'm
25010s an idiot we've already we only done two
25012s H uh borius it's holl off and then if
25015s game eight happens it's Morris heading
25017s back to
25020s Morris right I'm Pi more than
25024s anything uh I'm interested in Alliance
25026s and GG Alliance still has nine hero
25029s points they need to spend some points
25030s here oh yeah I I on that front yes
25033s absolutely but wolves have zero hero
25035s points and they
25037s P well wolves hasn't played s at all yet
25041s so I think they're just safe to pick
25042s Sans
25045s yeah I mean I I feel like this is brain
25048s dead for wolves right you just take
25049s Sanson
25051s here I have I have a really really that
25055s has irked me in a way it shouldn't have
25058s why haven't they play this is wolves
25060s best comp why have why they wait till
25062s game why have they waited yeah to pull
25064s it out yeah that is honestly criminal
25067s that's why you're in 11th place play
25068s your best comp earlier get the points on
25070s the board anyway I'm going to put that
25072s to bed before I get really angry seeing
25075s uh again a lot of attention on this monk
25077s Viper monk uh not Viper Bower my
25080s favorite character uh
25084s Splash Mountain I'm calling it Splash
25086s Mountain that's the name of the C all
25088s right Alliance let's let's see like a
25089s mountain and she makes a
25091s splash Alli spend the points I know Zeon
25096s is just free and there oh there it is
25098s okay zph pre for them
25102s apparently they have played a lot of
25104s zyphon today to be fair uh yeah cuz I
25107s mean they couldn't even go the karumi
25108s variant because they've done some sand
25109s siphon as well so they had to go the zip
25111s variant and the uh
25115s I am very concerned about some of these
25117s teams points going into the final
25120s game if someone doesn't win here if one
25124s of our three don't win here we go into
25126s this last
25127s game how are their hero points going to
25129s be looking what are they going to be
25131s able to pick up we could have some
25133s really wacky stuff coming out in that
25135s last game as uh game number seven
25139s underway k
25142s Lions
25144s GG these are the three teams who can win
25147s it all here they are on Max point the
25150s others are looking to deny them and drag
25154s their names over that 63 point point uh
25158s threshold and we have a bunch of teams
25161s close to it it is incredibly Incredibly
25165s Close wolves finally picked the sand
25169s siphon they would have be the best game
25171s of their career this would have to be
25173s the best game of their career if they
25174s and then they would have to follow it up
25176s with the second best game of their
25177s career right afterwards are you a
25180s Believer look I I love team wolves okay
25183s yeah I sitting above my desk right here
25187s framed is a season 1 J cup wolves jersey
25193s signed by all of the original players if
25195s anybody is a wolves believer it's
25198s me I snowballs chance in hell
25205s oh I think they got a as long as this
25207s this uh as long as hella has a freezer I
25209s think they got a slight
25211s chance it's an incredibly low
25216s chance but it's there they just need an
25220s absolutely monstrous game and they got
25221s the conf to do
25223s it they need two monstrous games back to
25226s back yeah that that's the big thing well
25228s no they need a monstrous game and then
25230s an
25231s MVP and they have no hero points for the
25233s next game yes then also move down the uh
25236s the hero pick order off the back of it
25238s as well if they won so life could get
25241s challenging as uh we can see Alliance
25243s actually Chang up the drop spot G where
25245s k k four three teams dropping on
25248s them GG are doing they they're getting
25251s they're getting
25253s allianc they with JL with JL same spot I
25258s re J think they've got Alliance again
25260s probably an alliance has changes up
25262s where they're dropping but they are
25263s going to be going against ug here uh I
25266s think K is in the the the worst position
25268s possible theyve got three teams stacked
25270s in a circle around them you're trapped
25273s in there with
25277s them it's going to be a really bloody AR
25280s for K straight
25283s up I'm interested to see where the
25285s attention goes first are we going to see
25287s the GG uh JL 1 V one or we going to see
25290s the absolute just B fight but it's going
25292s to be K's
25294s drop i l to got it chill I don't know if
25299s I like it chill it might be a little bit
25301s risky for them if K pop off off the
25303s start here going to quickly start with a
25305s bow and a cannon not the start for K's
25308s qgg needed we are going to see GG though
25310s they have successfully punished JL this
25313s time and JL have lost one Fang they have
25316s got txj got on to CGS CGS does go down
25318s in the middle of it so now it's a two
25320s versus two JL able to get control of the
25323s area GG wanting to reposition lxm trying
25326s to buy some space 330 goes down TJ finds
25330s the turn around it's going to have to be
25331s a 1 V2 from lxm can he find that Parry
25334s can he find that Miracle play with the
25336s staff I don't think he can tries to dash
25339s away tries to save the day not going to
25341s be the case Jil does it again they shut
25344s down GG
25346s early K down here this is where we
25349s talked about K in a very interesting
25351s spot there's three teams all the way
25353s around them that said they are getting
25355s the Lion Share of probably the best loot
25357s area here but here it is drg going to be
25360s coming in CXC going to be a little
25361s separated they're going to move up here
25363s with 17 drg coming in the other teams
25366s looking to head this way as well CXC
25368s going to get parried off the back of
25369s this WX 98 going to invest that Tami
25371s absolutely huge Tami Al for the side of
25374s drg and CXC just put into the wall here
25376s put onto the edge no place to go as drg
25379s cleans up cxz K here going to lose one
25382s of their members the uppercut here the
25384s re uppercut into the followup there off
25386s the Dual h no place to go qgg Goes Down
25389s K 17 the last remaining member here for
25392s team KLA and they go down as well and
25395s Alliance is the only team who hasn't
25398s lost their early game fight as they are
25400s now turning onto the members of ug we
25401s cut over to team Alliance looking to
25403s make something happen huge F coming in
25405s from N7 here trying to make something go
25408s through they're going to come in with
25409s matarial they're going to be able to
25410s clean up the ear another big F coming in
25413s from Seven not going to connect onto
25414s anybody but ug's SS completely separated
25418s from the rest of the team here the big
25419s Parry coming in from SS SS with that
25421s gold weapon being the mandatory Target
25423s here for the members of Team Alliance
25425s the chain the ult going to be invested
25426s here on the side of N7 trying to find
25428s those gold focuses to keep the pressure
25431s up here on to SS they're going to find a
25434s huge ult there going to clean this up
25436s and now Z on Alliance early game going
25440s to be getting a gold weapon in here this
25443s could be disaster for the rest of the
25445s lobby I was about to be really nervous
25447s about our top three and then suddenly
25449s Alliance just do it they make it work
25452s they pop off K they're not done though
25455s they only have one way and it is
25457s forwards L Goes Down K secure himself
25460s their first kill of the game and the
25462s salty run backat is exactly what K
25465s needed this game Cookie is going to be
25468s snacked up here trying to make a break
25470s for it but K are un relenting as their
25473s 17s with the fist weapon secures the
25475s kill and now Alliance and K tied up two
25478s kills a piece here we do still have JL
25481s drg wbg with three kills but no one has
25485s really really taken off right yet as uh
25489s GG are mirroring what alliance did in uh
25492s game is it game four no it's game five
25495s where they lost the fight they move over
25498s to Imperial and if they're unlucky J
25500s have hunted them down and
25502s them that could be a horrible little
25505s Flash from the past
25507s there take a look here over to X1 here B
25510s yon going to go down to zdi lyd going to
25514s come in go ahead and pop that uh Bell
25517s trying to find an intro into this fight
25519s bowos still keeping the pressure up here
25521s lyd though with the ultimate here as the
25523s sand is going to go down gets oh looks
25527s to get one of the grabs there doesn't
25528s quite find it X1 going to keep the
25530s pressure up going to use that leap still
25531s looking for the grab on about not going
25533s to be able to find it as we cut back to
25535s drg versus klaa here and it looks like
25539s drg going to go ahead and drop
25541s themselves a bane onto this fight as we
25544s see XZ going to go ahead and monk up
25546s here this could be pretty disastrous for
25547s him if these Banes come in onto cxe yeah
25550s cxt deciding he needs to go ahead and
25552s get out of here as he starts to take a
25554s lot of damage where c k land the spear
25557s but not going to be able to find any
25558s followup off of it the siphon going to
25561s come through here dear g d Queen going
25562s to get speared up again will be taking
25564s quite a bit of damage here trying to get
25565s into the veins breath not going to be
25567s enough we're going to see the kumal come
25569s out just in time KLA going to lose one
25571s of their members going to lose two of
25572s their members drg klaa has all of their
25577s momentum cut off and this is exactly
25579s what I talked about Jake this is what
25581s the lobby probably was going to do they
25583s were going to look to stop the momentum
25585s of K and it opens up space for Alliance
25588s and GG to make something happen qgg here
25591s no Resurrection left last remaining
25592s member of the team stuck between UG and
25595s the members of drg this is going to be a
25598s nightmare scenario for the members of
25600s K uh well I mean and if you mean
25603s nightmare I mean I think you mean done
25605s because that is K out of the lobby no
25608s revives no chance it's down to Alliance
25611s and GG now and a side of relief for both
25614s of those teams actually one of their big
25616s competitors the people who had that
25618s storm in their Sals turns out storms are
25620s pretty turbulent
25623s and they were left Shipwrecked after
25625s that one they if you are a k fan if you
25628s are K right now you are praying that
25631s Alliance and GG have the same thing
25633s happened to them think K needs to have a
25636s discussion with odys about
25639s storms as we cut back over here it's
25641s going to be X1 trading blows with wbg
25644s x1's o with the mon going to walk right
25647s out of that Tami ultimate and look to
25649s find hands onto somebody wbg sleepwalker
25652s on the backside a little separated from
25653s the team here but is going to play the
25655s sacrificial role here as he tries to
25657s keep X1 away from the rest of his
25659s teammates but the rain shot's going to
25661s come in lyd going to start taking some
25662s damage here and Sleepwalker able to play
25664s keep away here with the side of this
25667s being able to get those scale rush off
25668s Sleepwalker now covered by the rest of
25670s the team a single grab comes through but
25672s he doesn't have time to get the followup
25674s lyd is going to miss out on any
25676s potential upside from the ultimate there
25678s and now forced to go Airborne here with
25680s the staff look for a re set Sleepwalker
25683s coming over the top side here with that
25684s F activated is going to get cut through
25686s here by XL y though Sleepwalker swapping
25690s over to the repeating crossbow just
25691s throwing damage out into the team left
25693s right and Center wbg starting to pick up
25696s momentum into this fight we see the Bell
25698s come through Sleepwalker comes in
25699s catches the R&B off of the fan and wbd
25702s stalker will pick up the elimination
25703s onto X ly and all things have gone wrong
25707s for X1 here it is wbg cleans up a second
25711s gets the third on the Wisp and cleans up
25714s that elimination as well
25715s wbg off to a tear with seven
25718s eliminations it's a big start for them
25721s but it needs to be a bigger game if they
25722s want to make it all the way
25724s Alliance huge start for them I'm going
25726s to assume they're going to want to get
25727s their hands on a r with Yang they need
25730s to get the snowball going mean
25732s relatively quiet after that
25735s start especially when you have wbg
25737s popping off in the distance getting a
25739s whole bunch of kills that momentum
25740s starting to swing away from you and
25742s that's the problem is if you fall behind
25744s on Tempo you can really get yourself
25747s into a bit of a bit of an awkward
25749s situation that looks like wbg wolves and
25752s Alliance are all collapsing on the same
25754s portal for the Romo Yang so we may see a
25756s little bit of a little bit of action
25758s breaking out over this one Alliance are
25760s going to be first in the area woles not
25763s long behind
25764s them I just wor my7 that golden jeel
25767s hirs is a total Menace absolutely
25771s obliterate health bars and my main
25773s concern about Lance was their burst
25774s potential in that last game like they
25775s they they just weren't targeting right
25778s to burst people down but this time
25779s around when you've got the golden halber
25782s like the burst of the hirs is absolutely
25784s Bonkers and Alliance gets in there
25787s versus J L it's a pretty stack match up
25790s here I'm going to keep ey on ny7 I say
25793s all ny7 realistically needs to do here
25795s is catch a two or three man Al uh with
25798s that zy with those golden hirs here and
25800s it will spell disaster for JL JL getting
25803s Grapple out here ny7 looking for that
25806s opportunity looking to go ahead and
25808s create some big damage here will catch
25809s vvv out there off of the back going to
25811s go ahead and pop their F and go top side
25813s here as we wait for this opening ny7 the
25816s big one to watch here trying to find
25819s some more damage will continue to find a
25820s little bit of poke damage here hasn't
25822s committed that ultimate yet they do have
25824s the Kumi completely separated here ny7
25827s going to turn back and try to keep the
25829s rest of the members away from that
25830s karumi ultimate Kumi going to come back
25831s in to reposition with that ultimate a
25834s huge F coming in going to separate
25835s karumi from it there we go the old going
25837s to come through misses the connection
25839s onto vvv by inches here unfortunate but
25842s not going to waste a single second going
25844s to go Airborne here looking for that
25845s opportunity to get the reset they will
25847s get knocked down here by vbv they will
25849s avoid bbb's ultimate and go to set up
25851s their own if they can find a good intro
25853s into this it could be disastrous for the
25855s members of JL unfortunately ny7 just not
25858s able to make it happen that's twice
25860s they've missed the huge intro to but BBB
25863s getting stacked down here just around
25865s the corner there it is that's the one
25867s that they needed BVB goes down huge F
25869s coming in ny7 they now go to the 3v2
25872s here onto team JL this is disastrous for
25876s team JL trying txj going to go down and
25878s now it is the 3v one Alliance finds
25882s their feet again in game number seven it
25885s took a while but they finally came
25887s online big big snowall off got those
25890s Cows as well done so much good for the
25892s side of Alliance Vermillion Birds might
25894s is perfect as well this now means they
25897s have the opportunity to get into some
25899s fights get some extra kills and continue
25902s that snowball the big thing is as well
25904s is our our Front Runners in the lobby
25906s right now7 almost stood on a trap uh
25908s would lost that nice and early our Front
25910s Runners wbg they have lost their real of
25914s Yang so they're on debuff right now
25915s which means they're going to be
25916s desperately looking for a fight and if
25917s they go down that opens the door for our
25920s alliance to take over the lobby drg the
25922s other Front Runners with eight kills as
25924s well so they do have a vilon bird Smite
25926s to work with so Alliance definitely not
25929s out of the woods but feeling comfortable
25932s especially with GG on debuff and one
25935s kill yeah this is absolutely crazy for
25937s Alliance this is such a big momentum
25939s shift for them here and again the fact
25942s that they have this early game gold
25944s weapon here onto their Z huge for them
25947s again all you realistically need you
25949s need to catch one big ultimate there on
25951s one to two people and you clean it up
25953s and what happens ny7 misses the first
25955s two finds the third one in onto vvv and
25958s that entire fight shifts back into the
25961s favor of Alliance that's how much damage
25963s Z can do on her ultimate when she's got
25967s a gold weapon in the back pocket to back
25969s it up it is an absurd amount of damage
25972s not to mention the heal cut coming in
25974s from the burn tick as well yeah
25976s absolutely 18 minutes on the clock as
25980s well still got a bit of time left left
25981s in this game some of those teams with
25984s those debuff for three wbgj and GG that
25988s time is ticking away for them Alliance
25990s are going to get uh ambushed here by
25993s drg both these teams have that that
25996s vilon bird SM so they're pretty F to
25998s take this fight and I think they want to
26000s wanted to execute on F comes in massive
26003s slam there by N7 get a whole chunk of
26005s damage off pops the ultimate as well
26007s immediately catches on to donkey 9 but
26008s he gets himself caught out Sandstorm
26010s breaks out and then Ed S not really able
26013s to achieve too much there already that's
26015s actually going to be Alliance taking one
26017s kill onto DG Kashi could be up next on
26019s that menu get the knock back on to
26020s multiple people sand Storm's going to be
26022s timing out soon as well going to give
26023s him a whole bunch of space to work with
26025s groomy ultimate has been broken down my7
26028s keeping that pressure up wolves have
26030s also jumped into the mix as well looking
26031s to secure themsel a couple of kills Don
26033s going low slammed in by the burn Yuma's
26036s able to secure the kill and now it's
26038s just one more member of drg Kakashi goes
26040s down and wolves just next up on the menu
26042s they still got 40 seconds to work with
26044s Alliance could really snowball off this
26046s wbg closing in on the Gap though may
26049s look for a a followup kill n with the
26051s golden hirts just putting as much damage
26054s down as possible Alliance don't have
26055s long slam comes in Revenge secures the
26059s kill wbg will cleanse themsel of that
26062s RMA Yang debuff but Alliance jump up to
26065s nine Hills off the back of that
26067s beautiful play yeah absolutely huge for
26070s Alliance and and they they do the smart
26072s thing they stick around and take the
26073s fight they don't want to look for a
26075s reset after that without their ultimates
26076s and stuff now they can casually wait
26078s they can move around the map they can
26080s get some Intel that they desperately
26081s need here as we cut over to GG still
26084s holding it together here even after a
26086s devastating start to the game at the
26088s hands of JL that we saw Alliance suffer
26090s from earlier as well bazu just trying to
26093s keep themselves alive here the tether
26095s coming in from the karumi but it doesn't
26096s look like it's going to be enough a
26097s single tick of HP is going to see them
26100s go down to GG's XM GG going to find four
26103s eliminations for themselves five
26105s eliminations for themselves and put
26107s themselves back in the running with the
26110s potential to potentially find an MVP yon
26113s still caught out as well could be GG
26115s going to six here yon going to invest
26118s the F here will catch the whisp out but
26119s bow going to get slammed with a massive
26123s scale Rush from lxm and GG goes to six
26126s Alliance at 9 wbg at 10 drg at 8 this is
26130s anybody game
26141s still Alliance here off of the reset
26144s here two Legendary Weapons here for this
26146s team going to come in do some shopping
26148s with a ton of dark tight coins to their
26150s name uh looks like they're going to
26151s trade some
26153s off not many oh jail eliminated from the
26156s lobby yep that's a pretty big one uh one
26159s thing to note as well is wbg if if they
26161s can deny Alliance they actually could
26163s potentially put enough points together
26165s to get to match points which is a really
26168s big jump up cuz they were relatively low
26170s in the standings today being pretty kind
26172s of stuck towards the mid SL bottom end
26174s of the table all day long so win here
26178s would be
26181s big as a GG looking to jump into this R
26184s Yang they they have to they have to take
26186s every opportunity they can they are too
26189s far behind right now but they are still
26191s in the running so they need to jump in
26193s they are waiting to see if anyone else
26194s jumps in first jdg looking to kind of
26197s threaten them on
26199s it GG are going to jump in and I think
26201s they're just going to be fighting
26203s jdg no be Alliance
26206s drg oh wow okay I actually like this
26209s Alliance they need to get more kills so
26212s they would rather not get a free Roa
26213s Yang they need to work for it going to
26215s miss the aerial to start off there for
26217s my7 looking to try and grab a grab on to
26220s one isn't actually going to make that
26222s connection oh oh big damage coming in
26225s immediately there down the ultimate as
26227s well WX 98 going low get slammed by the
26230s F once again as he's going to get
26232s pressured up here by don9 but it looks
26234s like ny7 they need to bail out there the
26237s Z they have to F defensively to break
26239s away Alliance kind of just leave him on
26241s his
26242s Lonesome real mistake there from
26244s Alliance to leave their main damage deal
26247s low but he's immediately going to get
26249s caught out of the sandstorm again
26250s they're not healing their Z at all ny7
26253s is just going to find himself in a heap
26255s of Danger trying to make a break away
26257s here the healing is coming in but donkey
26258s n putting a bit of extra damage down now
26260s revenge is the one who's getting the
26262s attention switched onto as they have got
26264s one very low member there can they
26266s finalize the kill yes they can Revenge
26269s goes low in the meantime but the Parry
26270s comes down I think he's lost his golden
26273s Hal that is so bad for Alliance this has
26276s gone from just good to terrible what a
26279s fumble oh my goodness terrible but it's
26282s not over for Alliance yet as they do
26284s still have Yang depletion it is second
26287s realm of Yang which means they do have
26288s that extended timer to cleanse that Yang
26291s depletion and this has been a very
26292s aggressive Lobby lots of these teams
26294s looking to take fights so Alliance can
26296s still find their way in they do
26297s crucially at least secure one
26299s elimination inside there they do lose
26301s one of their gold weapons but they're
26302s still holding on to one that they can
26304s throw onto the Z uh but I do agree ny7
26307s fumbles a little bit here uh in that
26310s range they wasted a little too much time
26313s there was no peel for them also when
26315s they come back in they actually set up a
26317s huge ultimate because the teada still
26319s has the shove it's very hard for them to
26321s follow up on it and the rest of the team
26322s just doesn't come in for the peel so
26324s Alliance going to find themselves in a
26326s tough situation but not an impossible
26328s wall to climb back up from we have seen
26330s Alliance do it before we've seen them do
26332s it today we can see them do it again
26333s again 4 minutes and 30 seconds still
26335s left on that Yang depletion they need to
26338s look for a vulnerable team to go in on
26340s to and that's what we see them doing
26341s doing right now look at this we see a
26342s lot of scouting going out here they see
26344s ug they see another team they're looking
26346s for the possible third party looks like
26347s Yuma is going to make the call they're
26348s going to come in and go ahead and
26350s resurrect here so the rest of the
26351s alliance can be forced to come on in
26353s bring in ny7 bring in Revenge and look
26356s to make this turn onto a team like OU
26360s here ny7 coming in we're going to see
26363s the F they're going to go big Airborne
26365s lots of grapples coming out from another
26367s team though ug trying to make something
26370s happen yeah this is a tough place but
26373s Alliance got to make the decision here
26374s they've got to be decisive and jump onto
26377s a team looks like they're going to
26378s actually back away they don't want to
26380s chase ewg in the winds as well they want
26383s to bait one of these teams away from
26384s this spot so they have a better
26386s opportunity to secure that elimination
26388s and that's why you're going to see the
26390s line that ny7 here is they don't care
26392s about being seen they want to be seen
26394s here they want a team to pressure onto
26396s them outside in this area away from all
26400s that is there uh in plumed Castle it
26403s doesn't look like they're going to be
26404s able to make that happen right now but
26406s eventually they're going to have to do
26408s something as we see them actually
26409s heading towards where the circle is
26410s going to be Alliance on the hunt looking
26413s for something anything here uh
26416s Unfortunately they did spend a big bulk
26418s of their dark tide coins earlier so the
26420s second R of Yang could come back to bite
26422s them if they can't find a team to take
26424s the fight to again it's just
26426s decisiveness I think in the r Yang they
26428s they were very scattered in the decision
26430s making very decisive uh I don't I think
26433s they were decisive on their respawn I
26435s think the respawn location was pretty
26436s tragic like plume Castle
26439s is is one of those locations where it's
26442s very hard to efficiently and quickly
26444s land some kills because there's so much
26446s terrain there's so much verticality it's
26449s just very hard to lock them down now
26450s Alliance May C wbg in the area they've
26454s only got 2 and a half minutes so they
26456s are running out of time they are running
26458s out of options and I I feel like a lot
26460s of the teams are aware the wbg oh sorry
26462s Alliance are in low Health but actually
26465s they found the OG that's their
26466s opportunity they have to pounce on it
26468s now they have to secure those kills cuz
26470s they are running fastly out of time my7
26473s doesn't quite land that grapple so
26475s that's going to slow down as advance and
26476s ug just give him the old runaround only
26478s eight grapples left for ny7 catches on
26480s to zenu can he open up can he keep the
26483s lock down going that's going to be zenu
26485s hitting onto the plants but ny7 also
26487s getting hit as well GG in the area this
26490s is going to get dicey very quickly but
26492s it has to be a fight that Alliance
26493s commit to SS half armor the king trying
26497s to just cover his teammate here zo they
26500s just want to play passively they just
26501s want to play defensively but Alliance is
26503s just going to catch GG inside the Zone
26506s if they get this this is going to be a
26507s massive amount of good loot for them and
26509s a cleanse of that debuff but GG trying
26512s to make a break away for it they've
26513s caught onto lxm lxm low HP making a dash
26516s for safety Alliance still running out of
26519s time 1 minute 20 left on that timer it
26522s is getting so hairy for them can't F
26526s forwards they just have to use it as an
26527s aggressive movement ability lxm gets
26530s opened up onto here by my7 but he finds
26532s himself a little bit alone has got the
26533s ultimate to work with lxm taking a whole
26536s heap of damage here looking to just chip
26538s through that armor able to take it out
26540s but lxm still able to make an escape
26542s from this fight there is no time for
26544s Alliance this is so tense for them this
26546s could be the moment where the game is
26547s saved or made they've cleansed one can
26550s they keep the pressure up actually I
26552s don't know if they did oh they
26553s got1 but they don't get the armor they
26556s don't have time to stop and do some
26557s shopping on the body so they're going to
26558s have to just turn around on e ewg l
26561s stealing that gold armor is going to be
26563s the next Target here for Alliance the
26564s cannon is doing actually a lot of work
26566s inside the Zone they are absolutely
26568s ripping through ewg forcing the ultimate
26571s out but they do have the Matari to try
26572s and break away 's not going to make the
26574s connection wolves coming in Yuma going
26577s low Yuma able to hold his life for now
26579s but wolves are able to steal the kill
26581s away and take him down he is not coming
26583s back from that no cleanse available to
26586s him beautiful steal by wolves and
26588s Alliance left scratching their heads
26590s they don't have anything it is crumbled
26593s before their eyes as GG coming for the
26596s turn around they've picked up lxm they
26598s got some blue armor onto him revenge is
26600s out of the game and it is only lxm sorry
26603s it's only my7 standing for the side of
26607s Alliance yeah absolute tragedy here for
26610s team Alliance that real of Yang could
26612s not have gone any worse for him they
26614s will pick up another elimination here on
26616s to wolves trying to make the most of a
26617s bad situation down below with the old
26620s activated but all these teams trying to
26622s gatekeep here NY 7's got to make a
26624s decision on how they're going to get in
26626s here try to get back in the game very
26628s quickly if at all possible it looks like
26630s the bodies have been looted
26631s unfortunately Yuma was the player who
26633s gets caught out first and Yuma is the
26635s player that had all of their dark Ty
26637s wins they actually had a significant
26639s amount where they could have gotten back
26641s in after catching out that first
26642s elimination unfortunately it goes on to
26645s Yuma ny7 here they're all going to be
26647s coming to an end as well caught out in
26650s the open another team looking to turn
26651s onto him there's no place they can
26653s really go here they've just got to keep
26655s this going The scal Rush going to come
26657s in jdg is Ki just trying to land
26659s something in the scale rush off the side
26661s here buying them a little bit time the
26662s problem is is if they don't turn them
26664s into another team here they will go down
26666s ug going to pick up uh wolves X sorry uh
26670s Z here leaving Alliance One position
26673s heavier here which means they've picked
26674s up 13 points for this game they have
26676s outpaced K currently but still in a very
26679s bad position the cannon shots coming
26680s through jdg trying to make something
26682s happen able to use that F aggressively
26684s as a movement ability the bow shot
26686s coming through stops ny7 they get
26689s grappled out because of it the ballista
26691s shot from
26693s drg cleans up alliance's ny7 and it
26696s leaves GG the only team capable of
26701s walking away with the championship if
26703s they win
26704s here can they do it they got a dreadful
26706s well onto CJs they have got a whole He
26708s of damage to work with they're looking
26710s for the kill it was so close to cashing
26713s in there for the side of GG OG in their
26716s sights but they are inside that that um
26719s Bane's breath they probably do need to
26721s reposition a little bit B Wrong by GG to
26723s get some information where everybody
26726s is GG they got some work to do DG on 13
26730s kill
26731s kills but you cannot count them out yet
26734s they are the only one of our Front
26735s Runners in the game but honestly I
26737s thought they were playing maybe a bit
26738s too passive they proved me bloody wrong
26741s on that one Alliance going out with 12
26744s kills is going to be heartbreaking for
26747s them and if dog Wen having such a pop
26749s off game Alliance could have still been
26750s in the
26752s running I yeah absolutely drg on 13
26756s though but no chance for Alliance now to
26758s walk away GG the only team really
26760s istically in a space to make something
26762s happen here they are set up for a strong
26764s late game the problem is is they have a
26766s lot of ground left to cover here with
26769s only six eliminations to their name CJ
26772s wh one opportunity yeah to get that
26774s Cannon reset Dreadful whale going to
26776s double Dreadful whales oh my word that
26779s honestly if they make it to final circle
26781s with a zip healing and just d double
26783s Dreadful whale this life could get
26785s really hard now I don't know what the
26786s buff is inside this uh spirit well but
26789s if this is a white tiger
26791s DG may just win this
26794s game it's been so bloody aggressive
26797s we'll see what they're going to be
26798s getting no one's contesting them on it
26799s so I'm inclined to think it's probably
26801s not a
26804s uh a white tigers although GG may move
26807s over and try and play the contest game I
26809s honestly think I'd love to see GG
26811s contest it but I think they're playing
26813s it for late game they got double dle
26814s whale which is also very good at holding
26817s Spirit Wells by the way so I don't know
26818s why I really feel like they should be in
26820s there
26824s well the problem is right now they s's
26825s two ultimates so it's not like they can
26827s burn their ultimates guarantee they get
26828s the well and then get the resets it's
26831s it's a bad position for them to be in
26833s right now if you see they're just trying
26834s to utilize these daggers to get away
26836s from these Canon shots cuz there's a lot
26838s of pressure being forced onto team GG
26840s here they're actually going to go inside
26841s the tent here where they're forced to go
26843s through the zone and make something
26844s happen and it is actually a white tiger
26846s prowess on drg uh this is a disaster for
26850s the rest of this Lobby uh I don't think
26852s uh GG can come back from this
26854s realistically uh they are in a rough
26856s position they are down ultimates uh we
26859s do see drg with white tigers and all
26862s ultimates
26863s online it's going to be a very very tall
26866s order from the side of GG they get
26868s himself inside the tent nice and
26869s comfortably drg it is a waiting game for
26871s the lobby drg did do a good job of
26873s actually uh sustaining The Spirit Well
26875s so they didn't pop it immediately uh
26877s Jing's in danger Jing is going to have
26879s to transform here and he may be looking
26881s for the grabs see if he can find them
26883s onto the members of DG or anyone anyone
26885s spicy Walker playing the evasion game
26887s here from Jing Jing unable to hit the
26889s landing as uh GG quite outc comfortable
26892s in their tent got a bit of glamping
26894s going
26895s on as jdg they have been able to pick
26898s two TI up or they were they're trying to
26901s pick two TI up but cookie was stopping
26902s him cookie gets a punch for it though he
26905s might even get stomped on as actually
26906s Jin's going to time out of his transform
26908s and now they've been left open R are
26911s going to be coming in with that white
26912s tigers the pops Good Start there's one
26915s didn't really hit onto anyone else
26916s though so the good news is is it's
26918s chilled for a second white tigers 30
26921s seconds left GG coming out they've got
26922s those Dreadful whales to buy some space
26925s the O going to go on the retreat for the
26927s moment I say that they're actually just
26928s going to go on the aggression here for
26930s wbg a go out that's another big team
26934s out of the lobby 12 kills onto wbg
26937s knocked out of this lobby but 16 onto
26939s drg
26941s DG they have to pull it together now if
26943s they want to get any chance of winning
26944s this but I think it's going to be too
26946s much to ask drg are just too big white
26949s tiger about to time out they got the
26950s Aurora burst in comes the F onto Kakashi
26953s Dreadful whale can be used to buight
26955s some space uppercut Lantern massive
26957s Dreadful whale donu is going low they're
26959s looking for a as well a knocked into the
26961s zone and he's going down that should be
26963s GG securing the kill but a massive heal
26965s into the Aurora burst from GG they are
26968s getting absolutely melted has to
26970s reposition with the f chain S available
26973s here for CJs as drg are going to look to
26975s put some pressure in onto the members of
26977s GG massive chain side coming in but the
26979s Aurora burst again is just gatekeeping
26981s them as CJs goes down the main damage
26984s dealer is there and with 17 kills onto
26987s drg I think GG's hopes and dreams have
26991s been shattered in this game yeah we are
26994s going to go to game number eight and we
26996s have six teams qualified at match point
27001s absolutely insane game eight is going to
27005s be a complete and utter freefor all
27008s things are going to get hectic as we
27011s head into the final game of the day here
27013s but we still have to decide who's going
27014s to come out on top here as if there's
27015s any question that it's going to be team
27017s drg who has climbed all the way up to
27020s fourth in the standings they've had a
27022s very very good recovery coming into this
27024s one asz uh wbg technically not down and
27028s out they're in the world they can steal
27029s it from under them
27033s technically GG have two members but I
27034s don't actually think there's enough
27035s plate people to kill in the lobby
27037s especially with drg now going up to 18
27039s kills that aora burst that staff just
27043s too effective at shutting down anyone
27045s from getting close towards the members
27046s of drg Viper St breaks out donin gets
27051s parried by AWG it's w b GG actually take
27054s down wbg Sandstorm comes out as well as
27057s GG are going to try their hardest to try
27058s and contest this but noted into the zone
27060s taken out of the game it's going to be a
27062s 20 bomb here for the side of drg they
27064s try and blink back in for the side of
27066s ewg but that is it 21 kills going over
27071s to the side of drg and they have
27074s qualified for that last spot and I
27077s believe a couple of other teams may
27078s follow them through the
27080s gates I can't believe we'll go to game
27083s eight mate I Cann not believe we're
27084s going to game I yeah I can't either I
27087s mean they they did the job right they
27089s knew they needed to shut k play down
27090s early they needed to stop that momentum
27093s while they had the opportunity that said
27095s you can't Target out 16 teams uh game
27098s eight is just going to be pure
27100s unadulterated chaos as we get ready to
27102s head in six teams qualified above match
27105s point you guys are going to get a treat
27107s here you're going to get eight games
27108s it's going to go down to the wire in the
27110s final game here today in our summers
27113s split Grand Final for trios who's it
27116s going to come down
27118s to I
27121s I don't know I I know you're being a bit
27124s optimistic I feel like I'm starting to
27126s lose faith in some of these teams at the
27128s top like Alliance have had this is
27131s coming up on what their third
27134s attempt or is it their fourth attempt
27136s actually know it's game five this is
27137s their fourth attempt in the finals now
27139s taking it and that last game definitely
27142s was the best they have looked but still
27145s indecisiveness they they end out losing
27147s out on the plays that Roma Yang really
27150s fumbled by them completely bad Target
27153s selection and I feel like part of it
27155s also comes down to some of these teams
27157s are probably quite tired It games in the
27159s is a lot of games and sure we start an
27162s hour earlier than normal but it is a lot
27164s of games they've been playing they've
27165s probably been practicing their heart out
27166s the the the kind of stress and
27168s everything is probably also exhausting
27169s them like I I I feel like we're actually
27172s hitting a point where the these teams
27175s are kind of hitting that that that kind
27176s of mental limit and those teams who are
27178s actually picking up those later wins
27180s like OG this is actually going to favor
27181s them
27182s now oh going keep rambling but let's
27184s have a question for you guys at home and
27186s you guys can uh answer this one how many
27189s teams had a score more than the match
27191s point threshold oh how many teams have a
27193s score higher than the match point
27194s threshold is it A5 B6 C7 or d8 ABC or D
27200s ABC or D in twitch chat you can tell
27203s it's catch it up with me now uh let us
27205s know check your wh box because that's
27206s where you be getting your goodies my
27208s throat is cooked after that last game
27210s speaking of match point we're going to
27211s go ahead and give you that answer right
27213s now as we take a look at which teams are
27214s on Match Point and the answer is going
27216s to be six teams drg Alliance K yeah drg
27219s moves into first place off the back of
27221s this game no no
27223s surpris yeah no there's there's no world
27225s JL can win oh and then there is if they
27228s get enough points to surpass theg total
27230s in points and no one gets MVP I that's
27233s that's a tall order when they're not
27234s even on Match Point yet uh drg is like
27236s at 80 points right now yeah it's it's
27240s going to be we get a
27243s second
27245s believe games eight games and Ja didn't
27248s make it I can't believe wolves didn't
27249s make
27251s it uh you know what after the first few
27254s games I
27255s can honestly I I really can after the
27258s first few games not impressed at all
27261s unfortunately the fact they're in 11th
27263s is is surprising I you know they haven't
27265s been having the greatest day but I
27266s didn't expect them to be an 11th by the
27268s end of it considering they started in
27271s first they were at the top of the table
27273s man they had it all they had it all and
27277s they
27278s they they I just
27282s yeah I you know what I I hearken back to
27285s early wolves where where they do really
27287s well during the bi-weeks and then they
27289s get to finals like the bi-weekly finals
27291s and then they just completely and
27292s utterly fall
27293s apart I don't know I don't know what's
27295s happened that's not been the that's not
27297s that's not been the Wolves we've seen
27299s all season yeah I it's it's sad it's
27302s like they've been that Sprint team but
27303s they Twisted the wrankle in the first
27304s game and then like they haven't fully
27306s recovered and now they're into the
27307s marathon phase and they're out of
27309s stamina already with a twisted ankle
27311s like it it
27313s just the wolf's leg is in a trap that is
27316s uh really rough let's have a look at the
27318s overall scoreboard from that last game
27320s 3 yeah if drg win
27324s today that would be the most
27327s unbelievable turnaround I I didn't even
27330s have them in the Runnings in my
27332s head I I just I had these guys out of it
27335s like I was like yeah they're okay but
27337s they're not winning like you got too
27339s many good teams and damn biggest game of
27343s the day 31 points honestly the rest of
27346s the points the scoreboard kind of
27347s doesn't matter at this point until we
27348s get to the overall scoreboard and
27350s potentially everything phases off that J
27354s up on a cannibal comp as well really
27357s nice from DG wait were they on cannibal
27361s uh yeah they they actively were on Canal
27364s yeah okay I in my head they were on
27368s uh they were on a a SanSai I was like
27371s when I saw this like hold on what I
27373s remember
27376s this big stuff from my goodness yeah
27379s absolutely crazy we take a look one last
27381s time at the standings before we head
27382s into game number eight uh these six
27385s teams I don't think there's any chance
27386s of them walking away with it there's
27388s just I feel JL
27390s it is doable but they need to do what
27392s drg did in the last
27394s game I mean even at 30 points right
27398s drg's got to go out
27400s immediately yeah it has to be a bad game
27402s from drg has to be a good game from
27404s JL there is a possibility but I I I
27408s think realistically you can probably
27409s count those six out these are the guys
27412s you got to keep your eyes
27414s on Alliance have consistently stayed
27417s around second place so even if the don't
27420s win even if someone from the bottom
27423s seven takes uh MVP any one of these
27426s could still take it through points
27428s although maybe a little hard for
27432s jdg yeah it's been a crazy crazy up and
27435s down day for Alliance realistically
27437s they've only had one bad game this is
27440s this is the big thing about team
27441s Alliance um and I'm I'm going to give it
27444s to him Alliance the most improved team
27446s this year and and the thing that they
27448s have improved the most is their
27451s consistency their consistency has been
27454s insane this season uh I I'm I'm gonna
27457s I'm going to tip my hat to team Alliance
27459s I'm going to give them my coveted uh
27461s most improved team award for the year
27464s I'm going to say it right here and now
27466s Alliance you have absolutely killed it
27468s to have to have one zero point game and
27470s every other game be like eight plus
27473s points is really really good for this
27476s team they have come out they have shown
27477s out today um no matter what at the end
27480s of the day I I think a team Alliance
27482s should be proud of their performance
27483s this year and I don't I don't think they
27485s don't go to Worlds as many qualifying
27487s points as they've put up this year uh
27490s there there is a very slim chance this
27492s team could not go to Worlds I I'm so
27494s proud of these guys dearg too man this
27497s this team I I've said the same thing
27500s about uh one fang over on the solo side
27502s for drg they're a vastly improved team
27505s this year as well across the board in
27507s both solos and trios uh Fang finally
27510s just stopping the griefing on other
27512s players stopping the BM and just
27514s focusing on playing his game of nraa has
27517s really opened a lot of doors for him in
27519s solos yeah absolutely I mean we just got
27523s some you know a lot of teams have really
27525s stepped up this year Alliance definitely
27528s are the kind of like the biggest
27529s standout of that but I just see the
27531s Improvement across the board like I mean
27533s remember this the GG finally won a split
27538s and I know right now they they they
27540s looking maybe a little bit underwhelming
27542s they have gotten to that match point
27544s threshold but I I haven't really seen
27545s any life from them since doing it and
27547s that's because they' they've passively
27549s got to that point they haven't
27551s actually they haven't taken that mvp yet
27553s so you know a little bit underwhelming
27555s but you know this year in general we
27558s have just seen so much improvement
27559s Alliance have looked absolutely amazing
27562s theg have kind of sto being actually a
27564s bit like what you were saying they stop
27566s being a grief team cuz they used to just
27567s grief J team and like I don't know
27570s te but like these guys would just hot
27572s Drop on J Team every game and lose the
27574s game for it also make J te lose I like I
27577s don't want to know what went down
27579s someone someone said something about
27581s someone's mother and and they took it
27583s personally but DG they've stopped that
27586s griefing and they've really focused on
27587s their own game and they are looking
27589s vastly improved off the back of
27591s it yeah I mean it's been such a good
27596s year for the league in general I think
27597s the skill four of the entire league has
27599s drastically risen this year oh my
27602s goodness Jake do you know what this is
27604s batt it's a battle roomy ladies and
27606s gentlemen there it is your karumi MVP
27610s our boy Kakashi second MVP of the Season
27612s 29,000 damage nine eliminations coming
27615s through for Kashi thousand more damage
27618s than healing call doctor but not for me
27620s this guy popped up huge 13,000 damage
27624s for the fist blades as well Ki got hands
27628s really really nice to see coming out
27629s these guys and uh do you know why I
27632s think the skill ceiling uh skill floor
27635s has gone up and you're going to hate me
27637s for this oh God it's cuz Monk's not in
27640s the meta I promise you it's a major
27642s factor I think a lot more the characters
27644s are kind of like cuz monk was more U
27648s kind of macro focused as a character
27650s like it was more focused on like the
27651s teamwork the coordination finding the
27653s grabs getting good like opportunities
27655s and kind of blowing yourself at the
27657s right time but I think you know with the
27658s addition of yeah is probably the first
27660s big Improvement on that front because it
27662s forced you into an isolated fight where
27664s you had to be a lot more mechanical but
27666s we are starting to see you know more and
27667s more kind of like mechanical kind of
27669s plays come out from these people and you
27671s might not agree with me on this because
27672s you're biased but I actually genuinely
27674s think the removal of Monk for The Meta
27676s has improved everyone's ability to play
27679s I think it does help I I think it forces
27681s you to think more about how you're
27682s playing the game rather than just where
27684s you're trying to get in the game if that
27687s makes sense get to late game find grabs
27689s get kill like yeah
27691s exactly um so now you like and don't get
27694s me wrong cen's always had a vastly high
27697s skill floor and skill ceiling but it it
27699s creeps up and the teams have gotten so
27701s much tighter I think you're not wrong at
27704s all right the the monk comp going the
27706s way of the dinosaurs if you will has
27708s really opened up that space for these
27710s teams to experiment more to figure out
27713s where they need to be to figure out
27715s those sort of rotations outside of just
27717s loot rotations right I think every
27720s little change has had a lot to do with
27722s it from from monk coming out of the comp
27724s from realm of Yang existing I remember a
27727s time where we were casting games where
27729s Yang just wasn't a thing whatsoever for
27731s like 15 minutes nothing Happ from from
27735s Spirit Well coming into the game from
27736s Viper comp existing um just all these
27740s little changes across the board right
27742s from Yang depletion being extended from
27745s teams given the opportunity to reset
27747s their ultimates when they actually
27748s capture a spe well and that Yang so that
27751s there's uh more interest in actually
27753s fighting over those sort of objectives
27755s on the map um all of these changes like
27758s you you look at it now right and you
27760s people go oh hey this is a game you know
27763s this has probably been here forever but
27764s realistically if we go back in the last
27766s three years of history for nraa there's
27769s a point where none of this existed in
27771s the game right Morris blessings were
27774s were the huge thing for teams to secure
27777s right you remember uh we we saw the the
27780s the monk teams dropping karumi when mois
27783s blessings became a thing so that they
27784s can come in with the wind wall on the
27786s Tami to be able to guarantee that they
27789s get those armors in the mid to late game
27791s off those Moors blessings and whatever
27793s randomized buff was coming out of the
27795s box things have drastically changed and
27798s shaped The Meta including you know
27800s things outside of the game right we we
27802s take a look uh at the the hero Point
27804s rule uh the the ability for teams to
27807s have to pick different compositions
27810s uh even even the small change that we
27811s saw today where those first three games
27813s where there's Zero Hero points and
27814s realistically teams have got to play
27816s around that factor and where they're
27817s going to be where they're going to be
27819s able to find that aggression for us
27820s coming into a match point uh rule as
27823s well where it's not just cool all right
27825s we just got to put a bunch of points up
27826s on the board so we can play monk over
27827s and over and over again and go to late
27829s game doesn't matter if we're getting
27830s MVPs or not now you're having to play uh
27834s these sort of hyper aggressive early to
27836s mid game comp so that you can put enough
27838s points on the board to potentially
27840s snatch the MVP away like all of these
27843s changes have realistically impacted that
27845s skill floor and brought it further and
27847s further up but we're really seeing the
27849s effects of that finally this season yeah
27852s absolutely I just want to take credit
27854s for being the number one monter the fact
27856s I got you to admit that monk removal is
27858s part of what has led to this skill
27860s increase proves that I am the number one
27862s monk hater forever and
27865s always um no I I I feel like you know a
27868s lot of things are right right on that
27869s front cuz back in the day it really was
27872s just like Monk and Yoto or like the two
27874s comps for getting played and like there
27876s was like the just in a variance but here
27879s we go these are where the teams are
27880s currently
27882s at six teams can qualify six teams can
27885s make it today
27888s technically and it has to be a bloody
27891s perfect storm for JL they could do it
27894s but I mean it has to be everything has
27896s to fall into place AI drg K all need
27899s have terrible games they need to just
27901s murder everyone the odds of it are
27903s incredibly slim but we are getting ready
27904s for our final game of the
27907s day as we head back to moros
27910s aisle for this game number eight all to
27914s play for hero select is going to be very
27918s exciting a lot of teams starting to run
27920s low on those hero points I mean wolves
27922s have been on Zero Hero points for now
27924s two free games so and they did it for a
27927s monk
27929s the
27934s fools oh man I'm I'm ready let's let's
27937s just go ahead and get into hero select I
27938s I can't wait any longer Jake I got to
27940s know I'm also hungry so I want to get I
27943s want to get on with it see see what they
27945s see these teams have got
27947s cooked feed me feed my hungry
27950s Soul DG an absolutely pop off game and
27954s they've been pretty decent today but I
27957s mean GG the ones who've probably been
27960s the least weird like weirdly a mixture
27962s of inconsistent and consistent today
27964s like they've been consistently okay
27966s enough to gets into that fresh point but
27968s they've not popped off like we haven't
27969s seen a good game from them yet and
27972s that's what you need to win you straight
27974s up need to pop off like I want to see GG
27978s just drop this like more passive play
27980s style and just get in there get in the F
27983s fight I mean GG have been like dropping
27986s not on their not on like their known
27988s spots till avoid being targeted but now
27991s there's six teams in the running they
27993s probably can't go back to
27995s uh they probably can't go back to secret
27998s tunnel yeah I mean absolutely this is
28000s where things just get wild it is
28002s absolute free reain uh realistically for
28005s everybody involved
28007s here I mean you can kind of drop where
28009s you want to and it's it's a rough spot
28012s to be these teams in the bottom six cuz
28014s how do you bring any sort of energy to
28016s this game if you're in the bottom six
28018s other than hoping to to grief specific
28020s teams out and keeping them from taking
28022s the
28023s championship yeah exactly I mean that
28025s that is what you're really playing for I
28027s mean technically like I said JL do have
28030s a have a window a very very small window
28033s so they they have to go really hard but
28036s like we'll know if JL are going to do it
28038s or not very early on like if they don't
28041s have like a massive drop loads of kills
28043s they're out of the game it's done and
28045s they're just going to be look at the
28046s play upet the the pop off initially has
28049s to be
28051s insane for this team they they need to
28054s be 12 kills in like before zone two drop
28057s realistically for them to have any sort
28059s of chance to take it uh because they
28062s need those teams to get those
28063s resurrections so that they can keep
28065s getting kills off of them yeah that's
28067s the big thing yeah so like we're going
28069s to know by the end of Zone one yeah well
28073s technically there isn't cuz people can
28074s revive but that is uh I mean there's
28077s still a maximum to that too right yeah
28080s true
28082s true it's it's a crazy Place uh thing
28086s things are going to get pretty hectic in
28089s this those top six teams are just going
28091s to be running and gunning non-stop like
28093s you said JL there is a a world where
28096s where we we we we go to the upside down
28100s and they flip the script entirely and
28102s and come back from it I just I don't see
28104s it happening realistically um I think it
28107s is up to the top six to determ who's
28109s going to be walking away here I think
28112s J's Focus right now is on qualifiers for
28114s worlds and getting a decent World
28116s performance I mean obviously they are
28118s made up of former world champions or the
28120s current world champions actually from te
28123s so all to play for hero points
28126s incredibly exhausted at this point as we
28127s are getting into our eighth and final
28130s game of the
28131s day wolves going in for the
28134s zyphon going to be a sand siphon for X1
28138s Cannonball for ew G and
28140s Baler scratching their head they're
28142s going to go for
28144s a Matari s it's not a sand siphon Matari
28149s zip and te comp that is you have spent
28152s all of your points and you have nothing
28153s left Alliance going from valder
28156s monk g s siphon G actually have a whole
28160s bunch of hero points still to spend
28161s they're just going to go in for the zon
28162s and lck that one down so we head into
28165s that final final
28167s stage ug haven't spent a single
28170s point they spend one point in their
28173s grand
28174s finals nah those guys have been holding
28176s back there no
28179s reason what the I can't believe they've
28182s done
28186s that all right K what do you
28191s got
28195s Zeon I am honestly amazed at ug the fact
28199s that he came into the final game with
28200s nine points and went down to eight
28202s points
28203s like that is actually
28208s crazy this is going to be an
28212s absolutely insane game Jake I'm I'm
28214s ready I I want to see who comes out on
28218s top what the strategy is for that team I
28222s mean k is going to be the team to watch
28224s I think for me here because they had
28226s their momentum absolutely got down last
28230s game yeah is there a chance that they're
28232s able to recover any of that going into
28236s game number eight here and bounce back
28237s from
28238s it it's a to ask faster as we getting
28242s ready to go into game number eight we'll
28243s have a look at the load out before we
28245s get into
28247s game Grand finals end here for
28252s trios yesterday we saw spider win the
28254s solos who is going to win these trios
28260s a lot of emphasis today has been put on
28262s this V comp which is really interesting
28264s to me really cool to
28269s see we got what one two two vder comps
28273s this time GG and Alliance are the ones
28275s pulling those
28276s out lot of siphons a lot of sand siphons
28279s cannon ball from ewg is quite fun we saw
28282s DG just pop off on
28284s that DG now back on the sand siphon for
28287s this final game they got karumi in the
28289s final game is really big a lot of these
28291s teams would have burnt those points by
28292s now they're able to hold
28300s fast this is this is it for all of the
28303s marbles ladies and gentlemen we're get
28305s ready to start game number eight here
28307s these are going to be your final team
28310s selections I I I'm not going to lie I
28312s kind of love that GG is going on monk
28314s seeing
28315s 330 play out for the championship on
28317s monk kind of kind of warms my heart just
28320s a little bit I know you're still among
28321s hater
28322s Jake
28323s look I actually don't dislike this monk
28327s too much as long as the whole Lobby
28329s doesn't fill with it which I don't think
28330s it ever will um I think like the vower
28335s makes it a lot more interesting I think
28337s it's not just like infinite sustain monk
28338s where karumi you know puts her dog leash
28341s on and walks off and just leaves him to
28343s heal himself up and he'll be all right
28345s like he's a lot more he's a lot more
28348s punishable now
28351s um and you know I think it's like a
28354s solid a tier pick at best maybe B to be
28357s honest although some of these teams are
28358s really prioritizing it so I may have to
28361s reassess that but at the time that's
28363s what I
28364s feel um so it is it's you know I'll
28369s allow it for now I swear to God if this
28371s comp takes over next year though I will
28373s J I'll I'll have some thoughts I'll have
28376s some thoughts I'm going to be very
28378s outspoken about it so seeing all of our
28381s players all of our teams on that match
28383s point is in we go drg hot dropping in
28388s nothing to found though so they need to
28389s be careful cuz uh OG in the area OG been
28393s quite quiet for a while but they are
28395s still technically in that running they
28397s won the first game of the day and
28398s haven't done anything since seeing Sleep
28401s Walker getting jumped here by the
28402s members of wolves as a jing like they're
28407s just waiting for an opportunity to jump
28409s into The Fray missing that long St
28411s strike sh inside the invisibility push
28413s jdg kind of just chilling deciding not
28415s to go for
28417s anything I I think what happens there
28419s they're they're trying to bait some of
28421s these other teams over to them uh try to
28423s get a little jump scare out of the Bush
28425s but Alliance here off to a tear with two
28426s eliminations over the belt they drop
28427s onto team K and again K going to have
28430s their momentum cut short and this time
28433s by team Alliance as they go to three
28435s eliminations out of the gate here on
28438s this Monk today I do believe for the
28440s very first time already making plays
28443s happen here for themselves as they get
28445s ready to head out will they head for
28448s that R of Yang no surprise to see the
28449s moon Bane purchase coming through this
28451s has kind of been alliance's uh Mo uh all
28454s season so to see them make the early
28456s eliminations immediately move to BU a
28458s moon band so they can pressure another
28459s fight with a little bit of safety under
28461s their belt uh no surprise at all to see
28464s that coming through ug's the king here
28466s moving across the map that purple armor
28468s going to be absolutely huge for team OU
28470s if they decide to take an early game
28472s Yang here as you take a look alliance
28474s with purple armor underneath their belt
28476s as well now onto ny7 Alliance Yuma we're
28478s going to see this coming through
28480s immediately here t uh jl's txj trying to
28484s break away from this the ult going to
28486s come through though and connect onto
28488s them txj really really low Yuma looking
28491s for it here onto the charge lmb not
28493s quite getting the read on the
28494s invisibility there going to walk back
28496s into that ult but Yuma trying to find
28498s that timate for himself here trying to
28500s get into something unfortunately that
28503s white dagger not going to make a lot of
28504s difference there off of that ultimate
28506s there for our monk alliances ny7 taking
28510s quite a bit of damage here from this Zol
28512s they're going to be forced into their
28514s own Bane to try to back away from this
28516s and Yuma going to be forced into that
28518s ultimate now here as they look to turn
28520s this fight they may have dodged this out
28522s long enough for Yuma to make a
28524s difference they find one grab they need
28525s to find another they dump him into the
28528s ban
28529s such a smart tactic here from the
28531s members of Alliance jails F going to go
28533s down here the potential third party
28535s coming through so you going to do the
28536s smart thing they're going to De monk
28538s here they're going to come in they're
28539s going to get a little bit of Loot and
28540s they're going to use this ban breath to
28542s their advantage while it's still here
28543s and back away looking for an armor reset
28545s they're going to find a white set of
28547s armor not going to go into it as we jump
28549s over to drg who hasn't found any
28552s eliminations for themselves yet this
28553s game and they are trading blows here
28556s they will finally find one onto bow do
28559s now trying to look for the second one
28560s here on about Aon going to drop down
28562s below D going to come in look for a
28564s little bit of a reset before they over
28566s commit to the rest of this fight yon
28567s able to kind of break away but Kakashi
28570s keeping the pressure up here looks like
28572s drg will find at least a second
28573s elimination oh my goodness oh the furin
28577s shove shoves Bon underneath the Lantern
28580s and triggers the lantern to drop on his
28582s head stunning him and putting the burn
28584s tick on him all at once Bas Peak coming
28587s back in here is going to fall victim to
28589s the remaining members of drg as they go
28591s to three eliminations here at the start
28594s of game number eight now having a look
28597s during that fight it does look like uh
28599s Alliance actually lost two players
28601s they're going to be going for the
28602s revives on them right now not the end of
28606s the world for them oh I think that's
28608s them just losing their uh y my7 That's
28611s they that's their purple armor as well
28613s so that's a pretty heavy loss to be
28615s thinking in there OG trying to pull back
28618s some of these point here right now only
28619s got zero kills for themselves as wolves
28622s a little bit of a Nuance trying to
28623s finish up the dog
28625s pack them making a run for it his armor
28628s is going low has to just F away to
28630s safety but wolves are actually pretty
28631s coordinated on their attack here versus
28633s SS they're not letting them get any
28635s space not letting them
28637s breathe SS trying to test to hold fast I
28639s mean he has got that purple armor they
28641s secured from
28643s Alliance wolves get a couple of members
28645s caught out P sword doing a lot of work
28648s here on to Z catches a beautiful Parry
28651s knocks him back is interrupted before
28653s the followup can really come
28655s through contining to apply pressure here
28658s with the ultimate from the Z ug actually
28661s going down to wolves here now they go to
28664s the cone from the chain Scythe really
28665s nicely played by
28667s Wolves unfortunately far too little far
28670s too late for the members of Team wolves
28672s here they're they're going to pick up
28673s six eliminations early and this is
28676s looking like one of the best games we've
28677s seen all day from and it just doesn't
28680s matter yeah I mean it is a bit sad it's
28683s playing denial and it works for the it
28686s works for Alliance because every kill
28688s they deny from ug or any of the other
28690s teams is an opportunity for Alliance to
28693s get closer towards that mvp
28696s spot GG just going for a bit of shopping
28698s right now drg going for a bit of
28700s exploring right now I mean honestly one
28702s of the best things that could happen for
28704s team Alliance right now drg goes out and
28707s wolves just pops off and takes MVP oh
28710s Alliance so weak right
28712s now yeah I mean Alliance just coming
28714s back in right now they're not they're
28717s definitely not looking to take a realm
28718s of Yang with this potential comp going
28719s to cut back over to an earlier fight
28722s between X1 and team GG here GG's 330 on
28725s the monk able to grab one able to grab
28727s two massive double grab also into the V2
28731s off of the hottie huge for them as they
28733s pick up double eliminations there and
28735s now they just need to pick up x l y to
28737s get their fourth or sorry their third
28739s elimination of the game online GG trying
28743s to clutch it in here onto xly y XL Y in
28745s a 1v2 right now but uh GG there we go
28749s going to come in X1 no place to go xly y
28752s just gets shot in the back and will fall
28754s down GG with three eliminations under
28757s their belt right now but it is still
28759s currently Alliance in the best position
28761s to win as they have five eliminations
28763s under the belt and they are sitting at
28764s the top of the leaderboard right now
28766s yeah they got those points but they won
28768s but it is it is kind of like slightly
28771s nice and nostalgic to see uh 330 back on
28774s monk I have to admit even if I am a monk
28777s hater I recognize the
28780s great as uh ug they have struggled to
28784s really do anything since the beginning
28785s of the day like they had an MVP at the
28788s beginning of the day and then they kind
28789s of just like passively fell into
28792s uh's position but now they like they're
28795s in a position to potentially win the
28797s whole thing and they're just struggling
28798s to trans it jdg Jing opening up here
28800s onto Revenge catches the grapple is Jing
28803s alone where's his
28805s team yeah I'm if they decide here they
28808s just go in for the interrupt onto Jing
28809s Jin's going to lose a fair amount of HP
28811s the rest of are going to slide in try
28814s and make the turn around now they've got
28815s the Viper stun into the lock down can
28818s Alliance escape this one I believe the
28820s lock down and charm did go off but ny7
28824s low on Armor low on health and he's
28826s going to be low on time able to break
28828s away from this one jdg keeping the
28829s pressure up do get hit do get a bit of a
28832s follow up coming in Jing going low armor
28834s going low as well to follow Jing's able
28836s to hold f for the moment and they are
28837s just going to Blink out that was too
28839s heated for them Alliance will get a
28841s reset and will be able to move away
28843s safely yeah Alliance need to break away
28846s hot and fast here they only have the one
28849s ultimate and if they walk it back into
28851s that skirmisher comp it is going to
28853s spell disaster for Yuma here who doesn't
28856s have the gear to really back up that mon
28858s ultimate and make anything of it as we
28860s cut over we are going to see so many
28862s teams looking to contest for our first
28864s realm of Yang here it's alliance with
28866s five drg with three GG with three K on
28869s zero ug with zero and team JL with six
28873s jdg still sitting at
28876s zero yeah jdg struggling a little bit
28879s here ewg and GG going to be going off
28882s this fight I see the V comp inside the r
28885s Yang again the opening up I think it's
28888s see a mirror match isn't it breaking out
28891s GG 3 going to go for the transform nice
28893s and early actually sorry it's a cannibal
28895s match going to go in immediately did he
28897s grab him out of the mech yes he my word
28902s 330 that was absolutely beautiful
28906s cookies grabbed up as well he's going to
28908s be looking for the regrab onto a second
28910s isn't going to get it jumps up onto the
28912s pillar blocks cookie out of the sky lay
28916s may be going up for grabs as he is
28917s taking midair by CJs and L loses the
28922s transform loses this match up as GG they
28926s show us why they're the defending
28928s Champions that was
28930s stunning GG going to go to Six here
28933s going to make things difficult for
28935s Alliance as we cut back over to team ug
28938s trading blows with members of JL JL
28940s going to lose another member here as it
28942s turns into a 2v one J's vvv trying to
28945s clutch things out here 58 seconds left
28948s if they want to stall this out can vbv
28950s come out on top a huge F on the side of
28953s vbv here able to come in the Parry going
28954s to come through though vbv going to take
28956s way too much damage here and that's
28958s going to be it as ug looks to clean this
28960s up wait do they actually pick up another
28962s elimination
28964s there I don't
28966s know that was so tight cuz it looks like
28969s the scale rush comes in they pick up the
28970s elimination but then immediately they
28972s get the reill onto them so they get the
28974s resurrection uh that was very
28976s interesting at the very least it looks
28978s like they might have been able to secure
28979s one more elimination uh Team JL yes they
28982s do they get two there uh so they go to
28984s eight they were at six before they came
28986s into that realm of Yang so JL not in a
28989s great position they've got that Yang
28991s depletion but able to pick up at least
28993s one more elimination for themselves
28994s unfortunately this is not the uh 12
28998s kills before Zone 2 uh that they needed
29002s to really make a play for the
29004s championship here it's impressive but I
29006s do think it's probably not going to
29008s enough GG just keeping that momentum
29011s going and kind of speaking of momentum
29013s honestly I feels like Alliance going
29014s down again this is what happened last
29016s time is they lose a lot of momentum cuz
29018s now they're playing catch up they died
29020s so late at the end of Zone one that now
29022s they're just behind the momentum of
29023s everyone else everyone else is running
29024s around with purples and gold weapons and
29026s stuff like that and the vilon birds bite
29029s is just going to give them even more
29030s rebirth so even more chances to kind of
29032s go for resets and Alliance is still
29034s probably scrapping together some gear if
29036s they can find a nice third party where
29038s they can come in and maybe grab some
29039s goodies that's going to be their
29041s opportunity back in but I I'm starting
29043s to worry a little bit about Alliance
29044s they went down too late into Zone one
29047s and it's something we don't really talk
29048s about enough but it is a major problem
29050s as 330 actually get a healing off just
29053s in the nick of time somehow Staying
29055s Alive finally does go down that's the
29057s bird might pop from him CGS gets parried
29059s so he's going to drop his weapon
29060s actually maybe a to pick it up before
29062s getting taken
29063s out is vbv going to keep the pressure up
29066s here onto GG
29068s JL could get nasty for them they have
29071s that rebirth on them but in comes the
29073s tile wave alexm put some damage down BBB
29076s going very low is going to evade for the
29078s moment another spear coming out from lxm
29080s can they make the connection happen is a
29082s one versus three from lxm I don't know
29085s if he has enough in the tank is down he
29087s goes K though coming in with that third
29089s party onto JL they know they've got no
29092s abilities left they've used everything
29094s to get get that cleanse down slam comes
29096s in from kg pops the ultimate trying to
29098s hit one thingu actually s side steps the
29100s meor really efficiently there but vbv
29102s losing so much HP JL going to lose one
29106s player one F Goes Down K with the
29109s perfect punish txj goes down any second
29112s now and it is going to be that perfect
29114s punish is going to be that shutdown and
29116s J's L hopes and dreams their opportunity
29119s to bring this game back have SL quickly
29123s disappeared from them ug getting taken
29126s out by Wolves as well in the middle of
29127s this fight say that OG actually taking
29129s out wolves Z going low down go wolves OG
29134s are on the
29135s board oh my goodness wolves going to be
29139s eliminated here and I think you know
29141s maybe we should call them puppies at
29143s this point ug going to continue back to
29145s the game as we move over to team
29147s Alliance here trading blows it looks
29150s like they're going to actually push in
29151s and try to capitalize on K who burnt all
29153s of their ultimates in this last fight K
29156s trying to pressure up to that ballista
29159s Alliance keeping a wide birth here but
29161s they need to come in they need to get
29163s that aggression back that we saw from
29164s them throughout their first four games
29166s of the day they have to keep that
29169s pressure going drg over here on the
29171s outskirts with three eliminations slowly
29174s closing the Gap back up between them and
29176s team Alliance GG with nine also starting
29179s to pressure onto these two teams GG here
29183s looking to find MVP this game if all
29186s possible unfortunately JL jdg team
29189s wolves and X1 completely eliminated from
29192s the lobby zone two collapses on to zone
29194s three we're going to see that second set
29195s of real Yang's come through and I'm
29196s going to be honest if I don't see
29199s Alliance uh pressure in and take one of
29201s these Realms of Yang I'm going to be a
29202s little bit sad ewg is going to lose two
29204s of their members there to the G
29205s depletion but they immediately buy
29207s double rebirth charm so going to try to
29209s keep the game alive for themselves here
29212s got to appreciate a team who's all the
29213s way at the bottom has no chance of
29215s winning anything here uh continuing to
29219s play and making sure they can make the
29221s most of this game even though there's no
29224s chance for them to walk away with a
29226s championship you're not wrong on that
29227s front but what you are wrong on is the
29229s fact that actually there is stuff to
29230s play for still there's
29232s standing standing
29235s yeah you know if you can get a couple of
29237s extra spaces that's a little bit more
29239s money that's also going forwards you
29241s also Place higher so when you're talking
29243s to other teams and negotiating with
29244s teams for next year like that also helps
29247s your your negotiating power so yeah I I
29250s I still I like to see a little bit of
29252s pluck coming out from these guys I do
29255s agree with you though if allons don't
29256s get a Ramy I am going to be severely
29259s disappointed with them they lost a lot
29260s of momentum from their late reset and I
29263s don't think they're going to be jumping
29265s in we do have OG versus Baler though ug
29268s haven't popped off since the start of
29269s the day so they really need to make this
29271s work work SS goes down on the low ground
29274s Peak trying to put some damage off
29275s they're just Fanning each other at the
29276s moment calling each other down
29279s SS still got that ultimate available but
29281s he's actually being locked down his arm
29282s is completely shredded you sitting in
29284s the pocket they're going to throw down
29285s the KY Ultimate Reset and now U jumps
29288s out Sandstorm broken down but it's not
29290s really going to buy too much here as U
29292s finds himself in a heap of danger the
29293s fen sh comes in one comes back in
29295s response SS has to reenergize his armor
29299s lock down is going to get some of that
29301s armor back PE was able to do a pretty
29302s good job of locking him in place is now
29304s the king able to get himself opened up
29306s onto Parry gold golden fan stolen away
29309s from you and SS just fumbled his fan
29313s that is heartbreaking for him no Fen
29315s shove no armor Bower finding their
29318s opening cuz the king is down Baler
29320s secure the victory GG now going up
29323s versus DG inside the Zone 330 looking
29327s for the grabs onto Kakashi onto donging
29329s looks like Dong's going to be able to
29330s break away for the moment 3 was so
29333s efficient on those grabs last time a
29335s massive game making play for his team
29338s but the fen shoves are lined up the
29340s moment he comes down and this could get
29342s dicey here for GG health bars going low
29345s 330 already down followed by lxm CJs has
29349s a minute to buy or a one3 to pull off
29351s and I don't think he has it in the tank
29354s I don't think he's capable of doing it
29356s down he goes drg they're not out of this
29359s yet either this is a nightmare scenario
29362s for team Alliance they don't take the
29364s realm of Yang and the two teams with the
29367s most potential to keep them from winning
29370s this game end up head-to-head inside the
29372s real of Yang and it doesn't matter
29374s whether it's drg or GG who comes out on
29377s top it is disastrous for team Alliance
29379s and in this case it is team
29382s drg who's going to come out on top and
29385s take this realm of Yang here on the sand
29387s siphon setting themselves up for a very
29390s dominating position in the late game
29393s Alliance needs to wake up here I don't
29395s know what happened you know they they've
29397s played very consistently they've put
29398s points up on the board but this is the
29401s last game this is the time to risk it
29403s all sure if you go out early you go out
29406s early but unfortunately you can't win a
29408s game that you're not playing yeah
29410s exactly and it really boils down to what
29413s we saw from Alliance in every kind of
29416s game towards the end of today has been
29419s if they have a good start but they go
29421s out too late in zone one just before the
29423s kind of rebirth wears off they're so far
29426s behind on Tempo but then just they don't
29428s know what to do they they look
29429s completely lost and that has been a
29431s major issue for them here is their
29433s ability to kind of bounce back we had
29434s that one time where you know they did do
29436s an okay job of bouncing back but they
29438s you still lose so much momentum like the
29441s period where you're recovering gear
29443s people are fighting in Romo Yang they're
29444s then fighting with a million bird M like
29446s everybody has slingshotted B past
29449s Alliance on the kills because they've
29451s been be able to proactive while Alliance
29453s have been kind of putting loot back
29454s together last we saw them they had like
29456s one purple armor and two blue armors and
29458s a couple of purple weapons but like you
29460s compe with entire purple armor teams
29462s golden weapon teams like the momentum
29465s you lose by dying late in phase one is
29468s just it is it is devastating and that is
29470s what honestly denied Alliance two games
29473s in a row now I I don't even know where
29475s they are we haven't seen them in
29477s ages like I don't know where they just
29479s picked up an elimination uh no no they
29481s did not I'm sorry um I I I
29484s lied um we are here in the fight with ug
29488s versus ewg ewg by the way with a bounty
29492s onto team Alliance ug though coming in
29494s looking to clean up ewg so they can
29497s cleanse that Yang depletion and sure
29499s enough they are going to eliminate the
29502s members of ewg down to a single member
29504s left remaining alive ug able to cleanse
29507s two of those Yang depletion it looks
29508s like zenu and the King know where that
29510s other member is but drg waiting in the
29513s wing so 's got to play this very
29515s carefully as they look to hunt him down
29517s SS actually misses two back toback
29518s grapples and looks to be collapsed onto
29521s here by drg now ug was set up for
29524s Success here with these eliminations on
29526s ewg but now drg coming in SS getting
29529s separated missing those two grapples
29531s actually just catching him entirely out
29533s here karumi trying to come in and save
29535s this the fen shoves being locked down
29538s ug's SS drg though with massive parries
29540s and SS being forced to burn Fen chv
29543s after Fen chv just trying to cover for
29545s the team here drg actually on the other
29547s side of the Zone in a really strong
29549s position just to gatekeep ug ug trying
29552s to make the play for it here a massive
29553s FY on the side of ss forc to burn the
29556s furin though not able to find the
29557s followup as they trade furin for furin
29559s here they will find the over the
29560s shoulder throw here SS ug keeping it
29563s alive for as long as possible the king
29564s though going so low but kale all shows
29567s up for the third fourth party if you
29570s will now and we're going to see ug's the
29571s king go down to klaa as they find their
29574s fourth elimination of the game as we cut
29576s over to Alliance versus Team GG the
29579s mirror match here GG trying to get this
29582s Yang depletion cleansed away from him
29584s here alliance's y going so low going to
29587s come out here looking for the
29589s opportunity to make something happen but
29590s the double grab y going to go down
29593s Revenge goes down and that's it for team
29596s Alliance ladies and
29598s gentlemen too passive oh I I I hate to I
29602s hate to be that guy that keeps saying it
29603s but Alliance have just looked way too
29605s passive in the in the tail of the day
29608s and it's cost them heavily they were too
29610s passive with the hero points earlier on
29612s in the day they were too passive with
29613s the games later on in the day and
29615s ny7 I mean even if he somehow pulls a
29619s miracle off gets away and finds the
29621s money to rebirth when like he's got 40
29623s dark Ty so he's not but like let's say
29625s he did somehow pull that Miracle off
29628s he's got 9 minutes to put all that
29631s together and recover his team's like
29633s gear it's just not happening Alliance I
29636s I think I think they fumbled today
29637s really hard I think there was a lot of
29639s pressure and honestly ever ever since
29642s that game with JL where JL shut them
29645s down and removed all that momentum I
29647s think they've just really struggled to
29648s come back and my7 goes down making sure
29651s that no one gets the kill uh how oh
29655s debuff debuff they're going to revive
29656s him I see I was like what he
29659s doing I had a complete brain fart on
29661s that one I mean they do need to deny GG
29664s as many points as humanly possible here
29666s so I I kind of get it at this point now
29668s you're just playing for second place you
29670s need to Hope GG goes out much less if GG
29673s takes the whole thing hon I think it's
29674s going to be love of in second GG having
29677s an amazing game drg are having a good
29679s game OG are having a good game K seem to
29681s found their win like I think a lot of
29683s these teams could surpass I think
29684s Alliance might slip out of Podium
29687s position yeah really unfortunate for
29690s Alliance though and I I have to agree
29692s with you
29693s wholeheartedly the the problem is is
29695s their first four games they they brought
29697s the aggression they didn't play
29698s passively into their last four games of
29700s the day they just after taking the loss
29703s there in game number five which I I
29705s don't think was realistically avoidable
29707s once JL made the decision to drop on
29709s that spot there's just not a whole lot
29711s they could do about that situation but
29713s going into youe free mate that's how you
29715s do it I mean I mean yeah yeah but I
29717s meann yeah yeah yeah um I I think it was
29721s the worst possible situation for them in
29723s that game I think it was kind of
29724s inevitable that they just kind of get
29725s bullied out of that Lobby um but going
29728s into game number five there was no
29729s reason for them to play so hyper passive
29732s uh and it just ends up being like a
29734s perfect storm of things going bad for
29736s them where like you said they're always
29738s going down they're using their
29739s resurrections right before the Zone
29742s collapses and I think part of that is
29744s lack of aggression I I think they they
29747s they went too passively into those
29749s opening fights trying to you know Peak
29752s together one kill here one kill there
29755s they stay into those fights too long
29756s they get third parted because of it and
29758s they go down they still go down when
29760s they have resurrections but now they're
29762s just playing from the worst possible
29764s position where the tempo is against them
29767s and I think because of that that's why
29769s we see Alliance go down and they're not
29771s going to be walking away your Champions
29773s today yeah absolutely it's it's you know
29776s it's one of those situations where it's
29777s rough for them but unfortunately it it
29780s wasn't enough if it's not enough you're
29781s not going to win and there's still
29784s plenty of teams who I think right now
29785s are enough and GG eyes are cleanly kept
29789s on them right now these guys have been
29792s so good towards the end of the day
29794s getting closer and closer to actually
29795s finding that mvp and they haven't had an
29798s MVP today which has been a big criticism
29799s from me they are the defending Champions
29802s and this is how GG play they wait till
29805s the last moment to show
29808s up GG is never late they arrive exactly
29811s when they intended to I can't to qu now
29813s it's been a while since to watch that F
29815s you open it up onto K here Bower going
29817s to put some damage down the through
29819s range shs have been committed Bower full
29821s on sending it again they can't win today
29824s but they still want to get as higher
29825s placing as they can they want to change
29827s the course of their day not able to
29831s commit fully to anything else but they
29832s did have a couple of shelves left on
29834s that fre range sh from uh securing the
29837s white tigers as they jump into the
29840s pocket GG standing GG packing again
29843s though I don't want to see po get white
29845s tigers and do nothing with it
29848s i i i my heart can't take it
29851s man watch him find the the the backto
29854s back white tigers as we head into the
29855s next Zone and do nothing with it oh it's
29857s going to be it's a Mystic might it's a
29859s Mystic
29861s M immediately just snatched away from
29866s me I don't think I could handle that I
29868s could I they I I was angry about the
29870s first one I couldn't take it a second
29872s time around looks like there's a real
29874s Clash here for this uh for this Mystic m
29877s information is King and 330 wants to
29880s make sure that no one gets that
29882s information honestly I don't think it's
29884s worth it I don't think the teams will
29886s care that much about a Mystic M so it
29888s looks like GG should be able to get
29889s their hands on to this one question is
29891s is are they going to dform GG yep 3 fre
29894s is going to D transform so he gets the
29896s golden armor that's golden armor on
29898s three members GG this is as good as it
29901s gets this is your chance to take the day
29904s you are leading the kill score you've
29906s got the Mystic you've got the golden
29908s armor onto your
29910s monk everything is set up for them B are
29912s about to lose that uh white tigers as
29916s well as GG immediately opening up here
29918s onto ug the king losing a lot of HP
29921s remember
29922s ug having a pretty good turnaround in
29924s this game as well they're probably one
29925s of the more realistic teams to contest
29927s GG Aurora burst coming out from wbg on
29930s that low ground is
29932s 330 closing enough on have his ultimate
29934s available able with the cannon to secure
29936s a kill onto Walker making that 12 kills
29938s now for the side of GG Canon continues
29941s to fire down able to refresh those
29943s ultimates thank you to the uh missed it
29946s might and The Spirit Well able to kill
29948s that
29949s one e holding fast for the moment Canon
29952s Fire coming in onto zi the king just
29954s eating a bit of it I think drg needs to
29957s make a move here onto GG they can't
29959s afford to continue to play passively you
29961s know their six eliminations early on
29964s were great soon as GG was able to
29966s cleanse that Yang depletion after that
29968s fight inside the realm of Yang come back
29970s out and start popping off again de G
29973s just has too much of a hill to climb
29975s here they have got to look to eliminate
29977s GG as soon as possible if they have any
29980s shot of making this happen and given how
29983s much they climb to the leaderboard so
29985s fast in the very end of the day here you
29988s don't want to give away this pole
29989s position where you have more points than
29991s literally anybody else you have the
29993s biggest pop off game of the day and then
29994s you just let GG walk all over you I mean
29997s it's GG are setting up for a historic
30001s backto back
30003s 2024 domination here at the mvpl they
30006s need to go in for it though K able to
30008s secure themselves a fifth kill and every
30011s second GG wait the harder it does get
30013s for them to make sure that this is going
30014s to be the game plan but they still got a
30016s bit of time on that realm on that zone
30019s and I think they're playing it nice and
30020s chill they got one kill with that miss
30022s it mate that was more just them shooting
30024s cannon fire out but just get a bit of
30026s information GG 33 he's only got one
30029s repair kit left though does need to be a
30031s little bit careful if he wants to keep
30034s this cannon fire up if he wants to keep
30035s this harassment on the lobby Up Just
30038s Landing shot after shot Z's going to be
30040s moving very very soon as
30042s drg also pretty strong right now golden
30045s pole sword golden armor onto dongqing
30048s he's going to be looking for it 330
30050s getting opened up onto is just going to
30052s back off for a second here everyone's
30054s going low 14 very low as well set 3o
30057s just waiting for an opportunity to get
30058s the cannon fire in he's able to get it
30060s with the shot securing them their 13th
30063s kill GG one step closer to taking their
30068s second title of the Year cannon fire
30070s remains to go down continuing to fire up
30072s they can see if the king is low 330
30074s hasn't transformed yet he's waiting for
30076s the prime opportunity they want to save
30078s that Bor ultimate as well until is late
30080s into the game as possible Zone's getting
30083s close health bars starting to get low on
30086s everyone the king incred low ki's able
30088s to get the kill actually batters a
30090s couple of members of GG back into the
30092s Zone they're going to have to heal up
30094s the cubes actually used there 330
30096s holding fast though the flamer causing
30098s some issues as here comes the transform
30101s 330 looking to pluck some people out of
30103s the sky catches one can he catch another
30106s don't think he's going to be able to so
30107s he's just going to get the smack back on
30109s use low HP there's going to be one grab
30112s on qgg from the side of K looking for
30115s the second grab not going to be able to
30117s get it as he looks for you use playing
30119s interrupt onto him 330 starting to go a
30121s little bit low gets himself to grab
30123s about the time out though so he have to
30125s get the punch down in looking for
30126s another grab can't find it St into the
30129s Zone the valer ultimate still hasn't
30131s been used by lxm he's holding fast for
30134s it for now waiting until the last
30136s possible moment wants as much health to
30138s work with as possible d q for the side
30141s of drg able to take down qgg knocking k
30144s out of the competition knocking them
30146s down drg are picking up the kills though
30149s they're pulling it back GG potentially
30152s being denied here OG going to play
30154s interrupt d q finds himself caught out
30156s in the whis lxm throws down the spear
30159s onto multiple members can GG do it I
30162s think they've done it g g are going to
30165s take the title there is no way they can
30168s be denied lxm he has done it for GT back
30173s to back

30747s congratulations yet again to team GG
30750s backto back spring and summer split
30754s Grand Champions as we get ready to head
30757s into J cup they make a declarative
30759s statement that they want to take all
30761s three this year so that they leave no
30764s questions about who is the top team here
30767s in the nbpl and in the world and if any
30770s team can do it it's team GG what a
30775s season it has
30780s one ofest daysa to of it with so many
30785s different team comps coming out I mean
30787s like the the domestic domination of gii
30789s is something we have to kind of look at
30791s like these guys haven't lost a split
30793s this year I have to admit I was a little
30795s down on out on them for a bit but they
30797s pull it back in game eight it did take
30799s him eight games um but yeah I I I feel
30803s like you know almost as much as yeah I
30806s again I hate monk but like this monk
30808s vder comp was honestly the secret Source
30811s I think GG needed they got through3 0 he
30813s was one of the big three monk players
30816s back when monk was like everyone in the
30818s lobby was playing it and the fact he
30820s stood out that much back then shows you
30822s you know he gets his hand on monk now he
30824s still got it he decided that reala Yang
30828s for them in that game the grab out of
30829s the faant grab like he would it was like
30832s they weren't moving he just he was just
30834s grabbing them because they just they
30835s couldn't Dodge him he was so so clean
30837s with it and you know it's really good to
30840s see these guys had an absolutely
30842s brilliant performance today uh they came
30844s back you know not getting a single MVP
30847s at all until that last game is it says
30851s it says a lot but you know I'm I'm
30853s excited to see what what they're going
30854s to offer when they get to Worlds I mean
30856s they have they have a lot of uh
30859s responsibility they have a lot weight on
30860s their shoulders because they are the
30862s only winners of in in the in the
30864s mainland China this year so I mean like
30868s there's a lot of pressure on those guys
30869s to perform at Worlds but I feel like
30872s whoever else is going to be following
30873s over there going have a lot of pressure
30874s on them and again Alliance starting to
30877s take that GG spot as the kind of never
30879s always the bridesma never the bride
30881s within the league because they're always
30883s so close they've done it so many times
30885s I've seen them close so many times and
30888s they just kind of fumbled the bag in the
30890s last moments to be honest and honestly
30893s they fumbled hard in game eight where I
30895s actually think they're going to slide
30896s significantly down the standings like
30898s I'm guessing maybe fifth or sixth maybe
30901s fifth fifth or sixth at the end of today
30904s which is a significant drop because they
30906s first don't that on them I'm not wishing
30908s that on them I'm just I'm speaking from
30910s what I saw like DG played amazing at the
30912s end uh K found their form again a little
30915s bit there we had you know obviously GG
30917s popping off JL had a good game like JL
30920s may have even made it into the top end
30921s of the table at the end of this like
30924s it's it's rough for it's rough for a but
30926s these are the kind of things that you
30927s you'll have to walk away and go right
30929s what do we need to work on it's our
30931s longevity in our series our decisiveness
30933s in in our plays and you know I don't see
30936s a world where Alliance don't make it to
30938s Worlds I think they're too good to not
30939s make it to Worlds uh and I also think
30942s this loss is going to be a big loss for
30944s them in the sense where I think Alliance
30946s going to learn a lot from this and
30948s they'll be better I I think it's a loss
30951s but it's also a big gain for them in
30953s terms of experience right I I think if
30956s your alliance's coach you you give them
30959s a day you you let them you let them reel
30961s from this right you let them kind of
30963s mourn this loss that they had here you
30965s bring them back in you immediately go to
30967s the VOD reviews after this right you go
30969s look at those first four games you look
30971s where everything went right in those
30974s four games and then you take a look at
30976s those last four games I I think you can
30979s kind of throw out game five just a
30981s little bit unfortunately you just lose
30983s that fight to JL it happens you can't
30988s single game I mean y y gots isolated and
30993s and that in an early drop like you need
30995s to make sure you stay as a unit and you
30998s know maybe they would have still been
31000s outplayed had they stayed as a as a thre
31002s man but like the fact that Yuma went off
31004s and got isolated looking for loot meant
31007s that they were always going to have a
31008s rough fight there and that that was the
31010s main issue let's have a look at the
31012s scoreboard shall we see how everybody
31013s placed at the end of this game GG they
31016s did it they barely did it OG closed that
31019s Gap 1.5 points between UG and GG drg
31024s fantastic game for them was a little shy
31027s CHL not in the running but they still
31029s put their name for themselves out there
31032s an X1 them and jdg end with a donut
31038s unfortunately yeah this was this was a
31041s very very interesting game h i I want to
31045s look at the overall standings I want to
31046s see where team Alliance ends in this I
31048s mean very clearly top I got a bad
31051s feeling about after
31054s this H just just I I think third or
31058s fourth fine I'm I'm okay with that I
31060s genuinely I don't think they can drop
31062s lower than that on the
31064s leaderboard I mean J when JL went out JL
31069s was nowhere near Alliance oh no J take
31072s them will be drg was drg was already
31076s above them obviously GG being the
31078s champion moves them above drg ug in the
31082s end even once OU was out of the lobby
31085s already they were still below Alliance
31086s in terms of overall score so I think
31090s third or fourth yeah we're going to take
31092s a look here as Thunderbolt brings us
31093s those final replays of the season and
31096s it's all going to be taking a look here
31098s team GG again it's pretty poetic for 330
31102s to end this out and T it all together
31104s playing monk here
31106s talk this right here yeah absolutely
31110s insane for him to be able to get his
31112s hands on this turn things it's one of
31115s those mechanics where I know that this
31117s is a mechanic that monk can do he can
31119s grab Farah out but it's one I just never
31123s see one of those like genuinely very
31125s hard to do tricks and again you see just
31129s grab after grab after grab after grab
31130s and obviously this time you can't grab
31133s transforms but like consist grabs coming
31136s in from 3 and highlighting why back when
31140s mon was the character the best character
31142s in the game Freo was one of the
31146s play so
31149s consistent fight here
31153s unfortunate I mean GG just absolutely
31155s dominated this final game in the end
31157s here and I I I do say I I think uh uh
31162s drg actually throws in this final Circle
31165s right I think
31167s on there was one monk one B left in the
31170s lobby you have to ass that that's the wi
31172s if goes to heal off you just can't win
31174s the game yeah that's exactly what
31177s happened it was honestly play really
31180s well like because there was actually a
31182s moment you see the uh 33 forced to uh
31185s transform earlier than this uh so they
31188s didn't have that transform for that
31189s final final Circle but lxm held that up
31193s until the last possible moment pops it
31195s has the extra sustain there they all
31198s there 13 seconds before they' ended the
31200s game make sure they have all the extra
31202s Health to work with and no one beats him
31204s at that point alexm played that
31206s absolutely stunningly really really
31208s clean game from him and you're not
31210s beating him in the heel off baby down
31211s you go lxm wins the series and wins the
31216s day and the split for his team on
31220s that yeah GG they're celebrating here
31225s absolutely Ely crazy game for them and I
31227s mean if you're going to take an MVP you
31230s might as well take the MVP that makes
31232s you the Champions as we take a look here
31234s jdg wbg bow wolves X1 and
31238s ewg nowhere near the top end here going
31241s to be your bottom
31243s six as we take a look Alliance still in
31246s third place here yeah the the Gap was
31249s just too wide this is this is what he
31250s was talking about going into this game
31252s ug was like on 60 points KLA was on like
31256s I think maybe 69 70 points so gap for
31260s close no no the Gap was just so wide so
31263s Alliance does get bumped down into third
31265s position here they do make Podium but GG
31268s off the back of an impressive
31270s 17.5 in the final game here look at this
31272s Yuma 2 number two here on the top of the
31275s kills leaderboard with 45 eliminations
31277s alexm with 47 and qgg from K with 43 ny7
31283s also from Alliance in fourth place with
31285s 41 eliminations I'm convinced qgg is
31288s always on this graphic like every time I
31291s I swear every split this guy is on this
31293s graphic he's so godamn good he's so
31296s clean I I genuinely think for like the
31298s last year and a half like the last like
31300s three splits now GG's made it to the top
31303s three players he's been so so impressive
31306s really really good gu I I I'm I'm very
31309s impressed with him but there you go our
31310s MVP for the split for trios is going to
31314s be lxm and I mean with that Val
31316s performance at the end it was superb
31319s 47 kills over to him averaging 3.4 a
31324s game really really big stuff from these
31326s guys and
31327s GG honestly I'll admit it I I was a
31330s little down and out on them but they
31332s they brought it
31333s back they really did
31336s 330 getting
31338s fmvp finals MVP there I mean to be fair
31342s that monk performance at the end very
31343s deserved very very deserved
31346s yeah again I I think there I think there
31348s was a big tactical error made by the
31351s rest of the lobby in these final
31353s moments how do you not identify that the
31355s only monk valda in the lobby needs to be
31357s targeted
31359s out like I and especially like the buff
31363s that they get is Mystic might it is by
31365s far the weakest of the three Buffs they
31367s could have gotten from that final Spirit
31370s well so for nobody to immediately go
31373s okay hey this is a problem and we need
31376s to deal with it and try to Target these
31378s guys out of the lobby realistically I'm
31381s I'm not sure why that doesn't happen
31383s right like you don't even have guys like
31385s trying to make the aggression and like
31387s getting shoved off and just being
31389s outplayed by GG that I can understand
31392s right but you you just have everybody
31393s just playing keep away they're not even
31395s trying to Target uh the Monk and the vda
31399s out of the lobby and you look at that
31401s and you just know if you go to heal off
31403s you do not win you cannot possibly get
31406s that multiplier you can't make the most
31407s of this game and nobody actually ends up
31410s getting the multiplier here in the end
31412s uh because we do see one of those
31415s members uh from drg holds out to the
31417s very end there they're able to get that
31420s uh huge turnaround with the stone form
31422s there uh and turn it on to the member
31425s from GG but both of them have enough
31427s Health that the lobby actually just
31428s times out so no multiplier is actually
31432s applied there for any of the teams um
31434s but here we go we're going to take look
31435s at the the qualifications right now of
31438s course the guaranteed qualification is
31440s GG as they take both the spring and
31442s summer split but take a look at this drg
31444s in second in terms of overall points KLA
31447s in third Alliance in fourth I mean again
31450s we talked about Alliance and how
31452s improved they are this season we would
31453s have looked at this graphic last season
31455s and they would have been all the way at
31456s the bottom Jake yeah absolutely Alliance
31460s very likely to make it the worlds and
31461s very rightfully said they' played
31463s amazing woles I really thought they'd be
31465s a World's team but they've got a lot of
31467s work to do 15 qualifying points for
31470s themselves so they really have to step
31471s it up if they want to make it to that
31472s world championship and the big one isn't
31475s actually any of these guys at the top
31477s it's number 11 it's te they are
31479s technically the world defending
31480s Champions or the defending world
31482s champion sorry and they're on 12 points
31484s they have they have a lot of work to do
31486s obviously it's not the same roster
31488s things have changed but this is going to
31490s be our teams taking part in the world
31493s championship so far no wait what oh no
31496s this is our qualifier yeah yeah I was
31498s about to say hold
31499s on these are the teams that are going to
31501s be playing to qualify for the uh B
31504s mainland China at World Championship uh
31507s I can't remember how many teams are
31508s going through how many teams do we send
31510s I can't remember now uh I do believe
31512s it's uh two North American teams one EU
31514s team or no sorry one North American team
31517s one EU team two ASE teams and the rest
31519s are going to be CN teams qualified uh
31523s and then you do have like the the
31524s pre-qualifier as well uh leading up to
31527s that so we're time's going to tell who
31530s qualifies uh and then we'll see which of
31532s the 12 teams actually qualify for the
31534s finals for jacup after that as you take
31537s a look here we're taking a look at our
31539s split here for the summer across the
31542s board and it has been one crazy split
31546s here for the summer split for 2024 WG
31550s spider takes your solo Grand finals and
31553s GG clutches it out for the back toback
31555s spring to Summer Grand Final
31558s Champion don't miss next week as we're
31561s going to be coming back for your Chinese
31563s Mainland qualifiers we will determine
31566s which teams from the CN nbpl will be
31568s heading to that J Cup group stage and
31570s then we'll have six days of group stages
31573s back to back to back to back which will
31575s determine the 12 teams who will go to
31578s finals it's going to be a very very big
31580s one this is how the main land qualifiers
31582s are going to be playing out don't worry
31585s it's not going to be a 48 game day for
31586s you guys it's just going to be a normal
31588s six game day the regular stuff here at
31591s nraa back to business we're getting
31594s geared up for those qualifiers and those
31596s final couple of teams making it into the
31599s playoffs well not into the playoffs into
31601s the actual World Championship itself so
31603s I can't believe the year done almost
31605s like the fact we're on the worlds now is
31606s absolutely crazy like it doesn't feel
31609s that longer we started spring and I'm
31611s already looking at like Christmas
31613s turkeys and stuff and this year is oh
31615s God don't get me start BL it it's been a
31618s blur this
31619s year oh yeah it absolutely has it's been
31623s one heck of a ride I don't think we
31625s could have asked for a better Grand
31626s finals I'm going to be honest we go to
31628s eight games and it has just been
31630s absolutely crazy I mean game one we
31633s start with a A 2v3 coming in from ug in
31637s an absolutely crazy position into game
31639s three we go to a realm of Yang where
31641s Against All Odds jdg actually loses the
31644s the 3ev one into one surviving member of
31648s drg just absolutely insane way to start
31651s the day all of these comps coming
31653s through these mon comps uh with the VA
31655s deatti the different compositions we saw
31657s in game one as well it just what a way
31661s to end the split to me it was the it was
31665s the fact like the whole time we're like
31666s it's not going to any games there's no
31668s way these teams are too good the team of
31670s to never going game it's it's always
31673s just going to be Alliance win here or GG
31675s win here and I mean in the end GG did
31677s win here but like I I genuinely thought
31680s we were going to be a five game day like
31682s I was like absolutely especially that
31684s was very cemented early on in the day
31686s where I was like yeah this looking like
31688s Alliance and GG are just doing too well
31690s they're going to five game it and we'll
31691s be done so and then like it just kept
31694s going like these teams just refused to
31696s go down they had really really good
31698s Target selection and Alliance denied
31700s heavily
31702s GG honestly it works in their favor they
31705s needed they needed eight games to wake
31706s up but they they really came to it in
31708s that final game big big game from those
31711s guys and yeah that is that is the season
31714s donezo um obviously we still got the
31716s qualifiers next week and then obviously
31718s not long after that worlds actually
31719s kicks off but what a what a split I
31723s can't believe GG did it you know the
31726s amount of times where I was like GG
31727s they're always the podium team never
31729s first place and then one year they take
31732s first place twice really really
31733s impressive I'm so happy for them they've
31735s done amazing yeah they they've had an
31739s incredible Year I wish them all the
31741s lucks hading into Worlds as well because
31744s man they have absolutely earned it this
31746s year spring split summer split Champions
31749s they have put in the work and they have
31751s done it all but I think that's about to
31754s be it from you and me here I think that
31755s is going to be the end of our nvpl
31758s summer
31760s 2024 season and it's been a good one
31763s Jake it's been a f it's been an absolute
31765s Banger of a season I'm very very excited
31767s to see what first ofal worlds brings but
31770s also uh what next year brings I like the
31773s changes are always really fun I like
31775s seeing everything that's going on
31776s obviously we're can have new Heroes as
31777s well by next year um I yeah I'm just
31780s excited by this I'm excited by what we
31782s got coming
31784s um it's been good it's been a very very
31787s good series season eight games has shot
31790s my voice uh I'm working on Thursday as
31792s well so I need to make sure that my
31793s voice is actually in functioning
31796s condition for solos which I'm I'm
31798s excited and nervous about solos if I'm
31800s honest with you run because I haven't
