9s know my name is Jared Martinez uh I'm a
11s student at Cornell University and I'm
12s currently studying cognitive science
14s playing the rocket for the first time
15s was it was definitely like it kind of
17s clicked for me and I've never even
19s touched a melee Focus game before and
21s playing it was kind of like a surreal
23s experience just because almost
24s immediately when I first started playing
25s you could see like how high the skill
27s scene was at the
29s game first thing is that he's really
32s really smart we all start very very new
35s just one two three you know Co attack a
38s lot but try hard within the first two
41s weeks of the game he realized how good
44s Perry was and he was one of the first
47s players to innovate uh you know Dodge
49s Perry shift Perry we call
54s it um it started around my sophomore
56s year of high school I decided to start
58s competing professionally constantly you
60s know playing in tournaments throughout
62s the year and you know I wasn't always
63s you know someone who was winning I
65s actually started out not even placing
67s very high in the first Regional
68s Championship and you know I told myself
69s that uh you know I wouldn't ever let
71s that happen again I wanted to be someone
73s that was you know consistently
76s placed tryhard is a very unique player
79s that if he sees a video of you he
81s understands you that's something that
82s most players don't understand about
83s tryhard is that he watches the game more
86s than he plays the game because that's
88s what it takes to be the best player in
89s the world
92s [Music]
97s the world championship is a large span
99s of time it's such a large period of time
100s that I have to take off from school and
102s you know uh at such a crucial point in
104s my education where you know I'm doing my
105s college applications I guess one of the
107s critical decisions I made and it was
108s time that I had to take away from school
110s and time taking all that time and
111s splitting my time to compete even in
113s day-to-day life um you know competing
115s does take large part of my week
117s especially the weekend you know when
118s there are tournaments that are late at
119s night um you know sometimes you don't
120s get a lot of sleep you know it was a big
121s sacrifice that I had to make uh you know
123s but it's something I don't regret at
127s all man he was able to do it all the way
129s towards the very end here you love to
130s see it let's go try hard just because uh
134s last year I felt like I was so close you
135s know and I was halfway there um and I
137s just fell short on the second day for
141s him uh it was heartbreaking cuz he knows
145s that it was in the grass to have rank
147s one and this year I know he's done a lot
150s of work cuz we always say we study the
154s game more than we play the game going
156s into Worlds I I have the utmost
158s confidence that he'll show everyone that
161s even with more pressure this year he'll
163s perform as everyone expects
166s since I'm really excited to you know
168s participate and be a part of the world
170s championship in
171s Shanghai it's always been a goal of mine
174s to you know practice more efficiently
175s and practice more um like and dedicate
177s more of myself to what I'm doing um and
179s I always feel like there's room for
180s improvement and everything even if I'm
182s already considered the best in a certain
184s region but I would say my goal has never
186s been to be the best in North America my
187s goal has been the to be the best overall
190s um so I'm always driving towards
200s that jcup is one of the biggest
202s tournaments of the year and it only
204s makes sense that the best of the best
205s come here and absolutely dish it out one
208s by one if I had to say
210s team ntl definitely is looking really
213s good and really strong we can't talk
216s about Na and not talk about TR no place
219s to go and try hard is going to pick up
221s his IDC IDK and all of these players so
224s it's definely going to be really
225s exciting to see how well they do against
227s these mvpl teams it's got to be a Kuma
231s it has to be a Kuma he's able to come
232s through and he just he provokes people
235s he pokes Bears he he's like hey I'm over
238s here we got one Wang leang having
241s performed extremely well at the end of
243s the MVP split take the vict inang I
247s think team 521 coming from the sea
249s region um playing the game in the way
252s that they want to play
254s it I'm going to be focusing a lot on KLA
257s and xcg those two teams in particular
260s have been very very consistent in their
262s play
264s Styles he spider gonna hold up to all of
267s this hype that he's brought so far oh he
270s almost was able to but Mike still
272s Maneuvers and he carries him or is Mike
276s going to continue his dynasty and win
278s him down and then J's going to shut down

1599s gentlemen we're here that's right ladies
1601s and gentlemen welcome back to your 2023
1604s Jacob oh my goodness it's Trio's day one
1608s Dobby and things are looking to get
1611s quite exciting right off of the rip as
1613s we get ready to head in and talk about a
1615s lot of these teams but before we do any
1617s of that we got got to recap what went
1619s down
1622s yesterday where do we start where do we
1625s start after the onslaught of insanity
1627s let's just knock it out the way let's
1629s just do it out right now back to back to
1632s back to back four time winning wbg
1637s spider absolutely closes and shuts out
1639s the game and lets everybody know he is
1641s here he is back and he is a woken well
1643s you know what it's not only wbg spider
1645s who comes through as well but there was
1647s a little bit of a front moving through
1649s by the name of frost ofis and frost ofis
1651s man I tell you what they say warming up
1654s but this man was icing over yesterday
1657s cuz he was like he was doing okay he was
1659s doing a little bit better he oh a whole
1660s lot better oh he doing way way better
1663s all of a sudden so Frost is walking away
1665s yesterday in second place overall in the
1668s standings our boy our double Regional
1670s Champion if you will coming in and
1673s making it happen listen and frost to
1675s definitely had a lot going for him like
1677s you said before he was kind of a little
1679s bit a little hesitant at first but by
1680s about game four game five he was cooking
1682s sadly though did lose to a B's breath in
1685s game number four that was a little a
1687s little bit of a blunder but that didn't
1689s Define how the rest of his games win and
1691s by game six he's in top three slowly
1695s behind A's Mike and our top
1698s Le oh man you know what though we got to
1701s go ahead and shift Focus Dobby and head
1703s into trios for today and if we're
1706s heading into trios we got to talk about
1708s a couple of teams here and you know
1709s we're going to have to talk about one of
1710s my favorite teams of course I'm going to
1712s be talking about team
1714s xcg man when we talk about a team that
1717s has been absolutely dominating and
1719s there's one word that comes to mind
1721s every time every time you know what that
1722s is oh is is it my favorite word Doby
1725s consistency it's the one thing he loves
1727s to bring up every time and that's
1728s exactly what xcg brings and pulls in
1730s every which way shape or form so clearly
1732s for a team like them oh yeah they
1734s they're going to continue to bring the
1735s key over and over again oh absolutely
1737s look xcg is one of those teams we see
1739s them do this thing time and time again
1742s where for the first four games they're
1744s literally just like chilling out in that
1747s second maybe down in third or fourth
1749s place and for whatever reason we never
1751s cut to them we're not seeing a whole lot
1753s of action and then by the time we creep
1755s up to game four and five all of a sudden
1759s wait a minute P to the metal yeah we we
1760s haven't been talking about xcg all day
1762s but they're in first place what did we
1764s miss where did these boys come from I
1766s call xcg the replay boys cuz that's
1768s where a lot of our highlights come from
1770s is being able to see xcg and wonder what
1772s went down oh guess what replay has got
1774s it for us thank goodness for replay some
1776s servers cuz otherwise we would have
1777s missed out on some good fighting action
1779s when it comes to xtg now when it comes
1781s to that team obviously yes but we got to
1785s give it up to the next team as well oh
1787s what team's that going to be Dobby oh
1788s you know exactly what that team is no no
1790s feel me
1792s baby don't don't do this to me D no no
1795s I'm I'm passing that one on to you baby
1796s all right look if we're going to we
1797s going to talk to another team we're
1799s jumping regions here and of course we're
1800s going to be talking about ntl Dobby okay
1803s ntl coming in led by our boy try hard
1806s for the na region he already has the
1808s World Experience he's bringing in
1810s players like ski and all his other
1813s teammates a Dodo and hero and they're
1815s going to be looking to make things
1817s happen for the na region this year and
1819s qualify for those grand finals it's
1822s going to be interesting to see try hard
1823s lead a trio that's I think that's really
1825s the biggest thing that's going to be
1826s probably a hurdle for him as well
1828s overall cuz he's doing one of the few
1831s things that only three players are doing
1832s he's doing solos and he's dipping into
1835s Trio so he already had decent games
1837s yesterday in terms of tree in terms of
1839s solos he had a decent amount of games
1841s he's kind of in the middle he's got a
1842s decent place where he's at so hopefully
1844s in his next game for solos he'll be
1846s right back could potentially take that
1847s top spot maybe even snatch it away from
1849s prosus but as for a trio this is going
1851s to be a different try hard that we've
1853s seen and let's hope that that definitely
1855s elevates not only his gameplay in solos
1858s but obviously brings the rest of the
1859s team something good yeah absolutely I
1861s mean this is a team that's going to come
1862s in it's going to be very interesting to
1864s see how they play as well CU we've never
1867s really seen how they do in a hyper
1869s competitive setting like this together
1872s they have a little bit of an advantage
1873s again try hard's been on the stage
1875s before he knows how to handle the
1876s Jitters he's been here he's interacted
1879s with a lot of these players so he's
1881s going to bring a lot of knowledge to
1882s that team it's just going to be whether
1884s they can get behind that knowledge and
1886s make something happen but speaking of
1888s making something happen we got a talk
1890s about a team that came last year and
1891s most certainly did make something happen
1893s and they're also from outside of the CN
1895s region of course we're talking about v&c
1898s ooh VC with an absolute powerful Squad
1902s here who's been in these rosters before
1904s here but leading the pack Roy HEI that
1907s is somebody that was one of y'all
1909s favorites when he came into the scene
1911s y'all was talking about Roy HEI and
1913s y'all was expecting some very high tier
1915s quality gameplay and he brought it last
1917s year look Roy is an absolutely insane
1920s player when we have when we talk about
1921s him we have to talk about the fact that
1923s when it comes to nvpl when it comes to
1926s Jacob he is one of the few players we
1928s have ever seen win a
1931s 1v3 in this competitive setting and he
1933s did it not only once he did it twice
1936s Dobby that's dangerous that's dangerous
1939s being able to have that over your
1942s shoulders with your team eliminated and
1945s you got to handle three people and being
1948s able to do it not once but twice that is
1950s story straight out of an anime anime
1952s protagonist like entirely but what anime
1956s protagonist doesn't have that but they
1958s have a heartfelt but very motivating
1960s story ladies and gentlemen this is where
1962s he he's protagonist

2126s for
2139s for you know Doby I think you're right
2142s when you're talking about anime
2143s protagonist Back stories that's one if
2145s I've ever seen one you know Roy HEI has
2148s come here he's overcome a lot of
2150s diversity to bring his skills to the
2153s stage and like you said he's probably
2155s one of the favorite players even if if
2157s that team is not doing exceptionally
2159s well and when they are doing
2161s exceptionally well they're wonderful
2162s team to watch play and Roy he just
2164s brings a lot of passion Dobby but he
2167s also brings a lot of um macro to the
2170s table too cuz like I said this man is a
2172s good player like you said before being
2174s able to handle 1 v3s not once but twice
2176s is definitely somebody that clearly has
2178s that passion that passion shows through
2180s his gameplay and obviously when you have
2181s that amount of compassion you're a good
2183s player so clearly a lot of the
2185s highlights the amount of replays that
2186s we've talked about when it comes to ro
2188s absolutely shines when he plays so I'm
2190s excited to see how much of that passion
2192s has continued throughout this season and
2195s how he's able to handle himself in these
2196s Trio group stages you know what Roy HEI
2199s great player but there's another team we
2201s still have to touch on WE before we had
2203s anything we did miss somebody Dobby and
2205s you know what it's a unique opportunity
2208s to talk about our boys in team
2211s 521 all right 521 back in Action here
2215s with unique Absolut Ely dominating here
2218s and like I said um he is one of the
2220s other uh two solo competitors that is
2223s doing both solos and trios he is another
2226s Contender that is going to try to bring
2228s his Trio team into the Badness into the
2230s hard work and hopefully they'll see
2232s themselves in that top five and with
2234s unique in terms of how well he's played
2235s as a solo player he can only be just
2237s such an important asset to a team like
2239s 521 you know 521 is a very very
2241s interesting team they come from one of
2244s if not the most aggressive region in all
2246s of nor
2247s and they still manag to bring that Tempo
2250s up to like a 12 not even 11 like a 12
2253s and make those lobbies play at their
2255s pace and I've got to give a shout out to
2257s aame from Team 521 he's playing that
2260s support role for this team and I'm going
2262s to tell you being there before being an
2264s igl being the support for a team that
2267s that is that aggressive is an extremely
2269s hard thing to do and he does it so well
2272s Dobby absolutely well and clearly um
2276s it's going to be are good to see how 521
2279s Stacks up with the rest of these teams I
2281s mean we talked about xcg we talked about
2283s Roy he but enough talking it's time to
2286s get right into the action but first we

3310s glad that I'm back and I'm ready to
3312s shine on the
3324s stage it's a world competition now and
3327s everyone is a top player from their
3328s region except a few
3345s people I'm ready to fight J team we
3348s finally arrived but very
3354s stra
3362s exactly as the Chinese proverb
3365s says watch out for
3384s yourself
3386s [Music]
3408s for this game is about brains and our
3410s team does not lack wisdom as the na Trio
3413s Champions we're going to make it through
3414s to the Grand finals
3429s don't worry I will only Crush you inside
3431s the game and not in real life with
3434s these what's going on ladies and
3437s gentlemen the time is now the pre-show
3440s is over and we are back to bring you the
3443s first day of jcup 2023 trios I'm going
3447s to be your host and your Gest here this
3449s evening the Rune keeper and joining me
3451s is my main man my OG the lovely dbby a
3455s as we get ready to bring you guys the
3458s action and you know what these players
3459s might be bringing the heat but me and
3461s Dobby we bring in the fashion baby very
3463s much show but I will say that trash talk
3465s was was a very amazing segment I love
3467s their trash talk segments every single
3469s year and that was great definitely some
3471s very highkey moments and funny stuff
3473s that I feel like we'll probably be able
3475s to probably come back to um in a later
3478s date as these Trio games will start to
3481s continue on speaking of coming back to
3482s things make sure you guys keep coming
3484s back to us on Twitch at twitch.tv/
3486s naraka bladepoint make sure you've got
3489s your lovely steam accounts linked here
3491s with twitch so you can pick up some of
3492s those awesome DRS for naraka blade point
3495s also make sure you've got us followed
3496s over on the lovely kick as well that's
3499s going to be kick.com
3501s maaka blade point you don't want to miss
3504s out on any the lovely little goodies we
3506s have coming your way absolutely
3509s especially some goodies overall though
3510s but make sure you guys are watching and
3512s paying attention because we will be
3513s throwing some questions out at you both
3515s questions that you will have to answer
3516s and other ones you will have to answer
3518s and predict on the website the nard L
3521s Point website for your chance to win
3522s some pretty awesome goodies so make sure
3526s like I said make sure your stuff is
3527s linked make sure that you're watching
3528s paying attention because we will be
3529s quizzing y'all every single game we're
3531s quizzing y'all on something it's going
3532s to be it's going to be easy the first
3533s two are usually really easy and over
3535s time it just gets a little harder a
3537s little harder a little
3538s harder but you know we're we're here
3541s it's time for the trios to golf Doby a
3543s totally different Beast than solos
3546s yesterday was an absolutely wild day
3548s here for our first day of jup now we're
3550s heading into our second day our first
3551s day of trios though and I expect things
3553s to get even crazier because you know as
3557s high octane as solos was trios is just
3560s such a different ball game buddy yeah
3564s and we're definitely going to see a lot
3566s more uh final circles cuz I don't think
3568s we might have seen one or two yesterday
3572s usually um you know either it's one of
3574s those days where we don't see them at
3575s all or we see them every single game and
3578s everybody's trying to last everybody's
3580s trying to maintain that but we know in
3581s trios it's guaranteed that they're going
3583s all the way to the very end and there is
3585s absolutely no Circle in sight and
3586s everybody's fighting just out in the
3588s storm so even with that here I I
3590s thoroughly believe it's going to be a
3591s good time yeah absolutely it's going to
3593s be a wonderful wonderful time uh but you
3597s know we've got a lot a lot to talk about
3600s today Dobby and you know we have to move
3603s in and
3608s uh oh yeah sorry yeah we've got to move
3610s in and talk about the prize poll of
3612s course there's a lot of cheda on the
3614s line my big man that's a lot of money
3617s that is that is a lot of bread even with
3619s that though and also even with the MVPs
3621s too the single game winner and obviously
3624s every single rank Point gets you at
3626s least something right like everybody
3628s gets a chance to walk out of here and at
3629s least get a little bit of something
3630s which is great but the more that you get
3632s there a little higher each time you're
3635s securing a bag you can earn an extra
3637s five bands just like that if you go from
3639s 9th to eighth let alone another 10 if
3641s you go from fourth to Fifth and let's
3643s not be forget if you get in that top
3645s three you immediately jump another 50 60
3648s sorry
3649s $60,000 that's a whole lot of money on
3652s the line dobing of course if you walk
3653s away in first place that's half a mil my
3656s man but we got to take a look at the
3658s schedule today is going to be groups B
3660s and C going head-to-head here in trios
3664s of course yesterday groups a and Bs in
3667s solos we're going to be heading deep
3669s here for the next couple of days because
3672s we are going to be six days deep before
3674s we head on over to Shang du for those
3676s grand finals as you take a look here it
3679s is chongu is going to be where those
3681s finals take place on the 16th and 17th
3684s of December December and that is where
3686s we will Crown your Champions here for
3688s the nanaa 2023 J cup I can't wait I
3691s can't wait never been never been to
3693s changu just as much as I've never been
3694s to Shanghai so far Shanghai has been an
3696s absolute treat cannot wait to continue
3699s to do more and hang out with everyone
3700s and uh still be able to create some
3702s amazing Rob while we're here and while
3704s right before we get started here um I'm
3706s excited even for uh for for chenu like
3709s that's also going to be another place
3710s and well you know what I'm excited for
3712s Dobby I'm excited for some of the
3714s changes we've recently seen so we're
3716s going to take a look here at Fair a shin
3718s and you can read these changes off on
3720s the screen but realistically what this
3722s means is faira Shen is an absolute
3725s Menace now coming in okay so not only
3728s does she spawn in immediately into that
3731s ultimate she transforms into that Mech
3733s faster instead of having 1.5 cannon
3736s shots loaded off the rip she immediately
3738s has two cannon shots not only that she's
3742s able to enter the Cannon Mode faster and
3745s not only that she's even harder to
3747s interact with from the sides which means
3750s you it's going to be harder to hit her
3751s with range shots it's going to be harder
3753s for something like the monk to grab her
3754s out of it the list goes on and on
3757s speaking of crucial Heroes they got some
3760s adjustments we also have to talk about
3761s karumi here and you know even before
3764s this current patch she got a little bit
3766s of a buff where she's able to move that
3767s healing Circle which really brought her
3769s back into the meta but this one this
3771s change in specific I want to focus on
3774s this first one added that new effect to
3777s every single F ability she has to where
3779s she's able to get that healing on all of
3782s that that means her F3 now has the
3784s ability to both give you damage
3786s reduction and healing which is massive
3789s Zing Ying of course got a little bit of
3791s a tweak now where her maximum amount of
3794s Rage has been increased at the same as
3795s other Heroes which means it takes her a
3797s little bit longer to get that ultimate
3799s built up and of course AKO saw a very
3802s very minor tweak where the damage on
3804s that one coming out does just a little
3807s bit less damage not too big of a change
3810s given the fact that most of the players
3811s are really after that damage reduction
3813s and the ability to break away from
3815s Combos and then of course we're going to
3817s take a look at some weapon adjustments
3819s here the dual blades coming in this
3821s seems like such a minor change right the
3824s fact that the door blades on those
3825s horizontal and vertical charge strikes
3827s knock you further away but I was
3829s literally talking to Duncan at the
3831s beginning of the day and we've been
3832s labbing some of this out and because of
3835s this there's a couple of combos that are
3837s no longer true on the follow up Chase
3840s they're a lot harder to make come out so
3843s this dual blade change is going to
3844s change up drastically how some of these
3847s players are actually playing those dual
3848s blades and then we move into the changes
3850s for the P sword as well we slightly
3852s reduce the vertical range of charged
3855s horizontal strikes and this is for a
3858s good reason right you can't quite catch
3860s some of those opponents that you've
3862s knocked away as far off of of those
3865s charged uh horizontal strikes which
3867s means the followup for some of those
3869s weapons are a little bit harder to hit
3870s and you're not going to find quite as
3872s much value off of something like a quick
3875s weapon swap after you're able to get
3877s some hits done we're going to go ahead
3879s and take a look at the groups for today
3880s though Dobby absolutely stacked so far
3883s here as we will be going through um a
3886s different groups and so far like we said
3889s before we were talking about all of the
3890s excitement as we saw some the teams walk
3892s out today we have xcg we have drg we
3894s have TL uh C team GG we have UG and
3898s Lobby coming in at Group B and also at
3902s the bottom Group C that is going to be
3904s IDC we as bngc that we were talking
3906s about 521 KLA fun Plus Phoenix and of
3909s course HL G so group a is going to have
3912s to take a take a take a break watch
3914s everybody they have to go back to the
3915s scrims get ready watch everybody and see
3918s how the games go but as of
3920s currently it's Into the Night of Morris
3923s Isle for our game game number one which
3926s means we're heading into a firefly map
3928s things are going to get crazy cuz those
3929s ultimates are going to be online very
3931s very quickly for these players and it's
3934s going to be a romp of a good time
3936s heading into game number one yeah an
3939s absolute romp tobby going to take a look
3941s here look by the way look at this
3943s beautiful AR we've got on this stage
3945s right AR is insane like this is
3947s storytelling at its finest let alone how
3950s they've been want run out on a exactly I
3952s want to see like can it really hold me
3954s up like you know is it really that
3956s strong or am I just going to fall I
3958s would love to but if I fall does that
3959s mean I float can can we talk about xcg
3961s by the way this this was not the color
3964s jersey they had last year I'm really
3965s digging this new white and gray scheme
3968s that xgs bringing to the table
3970s especially like on the sleeves too and
3971s it stops halfway and then it goes back
3973s to White imately like you can kind of
3976s see that I like it it's gives me gives
3977s me a little bit of a baseball type feel
3979s but definitely something like also with
3981s like a mix of football uh not football a
3983s football I mean it's a soccer as well so
3985s it kind of gives a little bit of both
3987s here but you know I love my purple as
3989s well here as you see from uh VGC they're
3991s locking it in and they're about to get
3992s ready and obviously seeing their coach
3994s that we saw from the backstory of Roy
3996s HEI who has been his uh successor his
3999s Sensei his teacher this entire time and
4002s now the the student is uh teaching the
4004s teacher and but luckily that teacher is
4006s still leading the way as always so it's
4008s good to see him absolutely being U the
4011s man of the hour making sure that v&c is
4013s uh locked in and ready to go yeah man
4016s all of these players are coming in today
4018s and today is going to be extremely
4020s crucial to their performances right
4023s first day is always an interesting spot
4026s to be and I feel like if you're in group
4027s a right now you're going to come into
4029s your first day with a little bit of
4031s Advantage you're going have been able to
4032s scout out both of these other groups
4035s right you're going have seen kind of
4037s what their strategy coming through the
4038s day is going to be you're going to see
4040s what those hero picks those uh P picks
4044s are this is absolutely wild this is one
4046s of those uh 1 v3s where Roy HEI just
4049s able to come out on top Against All Odds
4052s wins this fight into the 1v3 keeps his
4056s team alive look at this he cancels the
4058s ultimate here we're going to see
4059s immediately he just starts the change up
4062s combo on to PP here from wbg immediately
4065s picks up the Parry onto him gets a clean
4067s execution with the jumping ref followup
4069s left click immediately turns it onto
4071s Sleepwalker Sleepwalker with the bell
4073s Miss times it and Roy knows how to
4076s punish it follows through and cleans up
4079s one of the first 1 v3s we've ever seen
4082s in professional play I had the honor of
4085s casting that match and I know I went
4087s absolutely wild I think it was Jake who
4089s was there with me as well and he was
4091s left absolutely speechless taking a look
4094s speaking of teams from other regions
4095s though 521 this is a team I'm very
4099s invested in what this team is going to
4101s do I personally think that if Team 5 to1
4104s is able to come in here and force these
4106s lobbies to play at their Pace at their
4109s momentum most of these teams are not
4112s going to know what to do and they are
4114s going to get blown over like team 521 is
4117s a hurricane but if these teams brought
4120s their windbreakers if they're ready for
4122s it and they're able to slow their
4124s momentum down I think 521 might just
4127s fall apart I wouldn't necessarily say
4129s fall apart but that means that they're
4131s going to have to play their game and
4132s their rules and the question is are they
4134s fast enough to adaptt to that type of
4135s speed that's what what that's what's
4137s going to make the Difference Maker in
4139s how they can handle all of that
4141s meanwhile when it comes to fun Plus
4142s Phoenix another team that is a favorite
4145s that we've talked about in many
4146s different ways when it comes to D Queen
4148s water and zahu this is the team I mean
4151s everybody loves F Plus Phoenix here
4153s here's my thing I don't even want to
4155s bring it into existence but we've got to
4157s talk about it Dobby this is a team that
4159s during the regular splits performs
4162s exceptionally well if not one of the
4165s best trio teams that per has incredible
4169s performances they've broken records in
4172s their trios games but when they make it
4175s to the bi-weekly finals when they make
4177s it to the Grand finals for a split and
4180s when they make it to Worlds I don't know
4181s what it is something happens they fall
4184s apart it's like a curse looming over
4186s their head and I hope they got some some
4188s Voodoo Shaman magic or something on
4190s their side this time and that curse has
4192s been broken I don't know about a voodo
4193s one but speaking of that we got to talk
4195s about one of our favorites here the EU
4196s guys and also one of our other amazing
4198s fellow casters but also he's not a
4200s Caster he's a coach today coach Raven
4202s nlz uh following up for team IDC uh good
4206s group of people he did some cosplay
4208s yesterday with one of our amazing uh
4209s cers Moxy and we've got the team uh with
4213s Z leading it as well here but so far
4215s it's going to be really good for them um
4216s he is back he sadly not going to be a
4219s solo player um in this game he has to be
4221s put into the trios but I believe and I
4224s absolutely have nothing but confident
4226s that Z's going to come through and
4227s absolutely shine bright like a diamond
4229s oh absolutely I mean I mean just look at
4231s that gorgeous face Dobby how could you
4233s expect him to do anything but shine
4234s bright like a d I don't know the king
4236s will have to he might have to step away
4238s on the most handsome man of this group z
4240s might have man he might have beat a
4241s little bit I mean just a little bit here
4244s but man these players are all locked and
4247s loaded they are going to be coming in
4249s hot today and I'm excited to see where
4251s it goes we're going to take a look hlg
4253s this is another team team we haven't got
4254s to talk about yet today that I
4256s definitely want to throw some Praise on
4259s because when this team came into the
4260s summer split Dobby not only were they a
4262s completely new org to the nvpl but the
4265s first three players that they fielded
4267s were all brand new players to the narona
4270s blade Point pro league that's crazy
4272s being down an entire season cuz they
4275s didn't get to participate in the spring
4276s split whatsoever they had to make all of
4279s their points to qualify for worlds
4281s during the summer split and during rep
4283s change the odds of them being able to be
4286s here to be able to qualify for the World
4290s Championship we're Next To None not only
4293s did they qualify I'm expecting them to
4295s do very well also taking a look at our
4297s na boys here for team
4300s ntl looking like they're ready to Lock
4303s and Load here I do believe that is hero
4305s ski and tryhard sitting behind the desk
4307s right now so it looks like for game
4309s number one ad Doo is going to be sitting
4311s things out here as we move across to
4313s team km La Rosemary cxz and U man this
4317s is a team H they are like te they play
4322s textbook nraa right and they do it so
4326s well they're not a team that comes out
4328s and like has crazy new which interesting
4331s CU that's the complete opposite for
4332s solos oh yeah SOLO it's a completely
4335s unhinged person and then meanwhile we go
4338s to the trio team and they're by the book
4340s like yeah exactly they they wrote the
4341s book you know they wrote the book and
4343s was like I don't need this book what am
4345s I what are we
4346s reading meanwhile ug speaking of
4348s handsome men right talking about the
4350s king we talked about him uh during a
4352s great live stream that we had when we
4354s got some dinner with Jagger and um
4356s definitely talked about his improvements
4357s overall with his timing him leading the
4360s pack as a team and hopefully being able
4362s to lead his Trio team to an absolute
4364s Victory here so it'll be interesting to
4365s see how ug can can handle it amongst all
4368s these other incredible teams that's
4369s about to absolutely Slaughter look I
4372s there's been some adjustments to Yodo
4374s Heime right that have brought her way
4376s back into the pack in terms of hero I'm
4379s excited and I hope we see the king pick
4383s Yodo Heime back up it was a champion
4385s that he dominated on in solos hopefully
4389s he can bring some of that energy to
4390s trios for the team as well but we are
4392s getting ready to lock in for game number
4396s one Dobby as we take a look at all the
4398s teams we're going to move into that hero
4399s selection stage very
4401s soon I'm not going to lie I'm looking at
4404s u t g I thought uh I thought one of the
4407s players on the left was sleep for a
4408s second I was like um sure now it's not
4411s the time to begin knock to knock out
4413s everybody's about to lock it in let's
4414s see what the hero picks is run do your
4417s thing take it away yeah let's see what
4419s our boys are going to bring to bear here
4421s for game one day one of trios and here
4424s we go we're going to see coming in here
4428s it looks like we are going to see some
4430s Transformers this is something I'm still
4433s in interested to see look at this it's
4436s going to be a very Transformers heavy
4438s Lobby this is one of the things you and
4440s me were discussing Dobby if you take a
4441s look here this Viper comp has completely
4444s changed there's no more Yodo Heime we're
4446s seeing Tessa take the place of that Yodo
4449s Heime and it's because of a comp that's
4451s been brewing in the background where
4453s Yuan yohime Faria Shen are the focus
4457s we've not seen that comp coming through
4459s here into this lobby but because of that
4462s Tessa has taken the place of Yodo Heim
4465s onto that Viper
4467s comp obviously coming into the Viper
4469s comp as well looks like zes Wier is
4471s going to be held up by K and it looks
4473s like they're also going to be fighting
4474s another team as well fighting for all
4476s that loot as we look at team drg as well
4480s into the very center and it looks like
4481s we're going to see VGC and xcg going to
4485s be all the way in shipwreck's expanse by
4487s them in a space where they're going to
4489s be have to have to force the fights
4491s looks like h hlg on the right is going
4494s to have the fight it looks like they
4495s don't have to really worry about too
4496s much here but everybody's realistically
4497s spread out not a lot of immediate fights
4499s the only fights we're really going to
4500s see out of the gate is probably going to
4502s be from VGC and probably going to be
4504s from our na teams uh over at Ko so let's
4506s hope that they really are prepared for
4508s this as we're going to lock it in for
4509s our first game as Z's going to get the
4511s first piece of some decent loot here
4514s both pews and uh let's get uh let's get
4516s the first question out of the way here
4517s so that way everybody can get some stuff
4519s going make sure you're on the website so
4520s that way you guys not the website Dobby
4522s they need to log in
4524s nraa and you need to go into the Cent
4526s and answer the following question which
4528s of the two teams will achieve the
4529s highest score in this match make sure
4531s you hurry up and do it there's some
4532s goodies on the line here but team uh oh
4535s my goodness 28 here Lobby 28 going
4537s head-to-head with xcg xcg taking a
4540s commanding lead here's NQ with the
4542s ultimate on uan already they going to
4545s allow them to clean up one of the
4546s players from Lobby 28 tanoshi On The
4549s Backs side of this rock trying to break
4550s away NQ continuing to use that ultimate
4553s to to create pressure for his team
4555s they're going to pick up double
4556s eliminations here and now it's just a 3v
4559s one no place to go Lobby 28 will lose
4562s their early game resurrections as xcg
4565s picks up three eliminations off of the
4567s bat doabe I think The Observers heard me
4569s talking about we don't get enough xcg on
4572s camera and decided they were going to
4573s follow him out here and sure enough we
4574s got some action right off the rib let's
4576s not sleep on o who also was able to get
4579s their first three eliminations as well
4582s into this fight so obviously they were
4583s to do their quick engaging while they
4585s were in the section obviously starting
4586s the no Al Zone clearly preventing them
4588s from realistically being able to do
4590s anything in that Circle here and
4592s obviously going to try to see if they
4593s can rotate this around as it looks like
4594s fun plus finish is dun is going to be
4596s right next to team GG have to be careful
4599s if Mia ends up finding them or at least
4601s hearing those footsteps all the way up
4603s top here most likely the team from fun
4605s Plus Phoenix should be around the bin
4607s but fun Plus Phoenix is D Queen just you
4609s know coming through just rotating doing
4610s a little bit of shopping seeing what's
4612s going on what do they need what type of
4614s resources going to help them in this
4616s moment looks like
4617s Z needs some Shield as well he's sitting
4620s on a shield currently so going to try to
4623s see if he can find some stuff but
4625s looking at 521 they was able to get
4627s their
4629s um their stuff going here now they're
4632s going to keep this rotation as much as
4634s possible here look at that flight look
4635s how high he's getting up there with that
4638s beautiful that beautiful Brut Lee skin
4640s as well on top of this here and it looks
4642s like IDC and K play nearby here EU
4645s versus na could potentially fight this
4647s out here depending on what they want to
4649s do so this is very interesting team 521
4652s there hyper aggressive team but playing
4655s Transformers into a firefly map but
4657s we've got to cut over here now as ug drg
4660s going Head to Head it looks like team ug
4663s have bought the early Banes breath here
4665s we're going to see those double Testa
4667s ultimates being invested oh my goodness
4670s there it is the ban breath going to pick
4672s up an elimination there but ug still in
4675s this fight drg going to be forced to use
4677s the woo channel to disengage here as ug
4681s is just able to come down and find the
4683s full reset That's The Power of those
4685s early game Baines breaths Dobby it
4688s forces drg to back away entirely from
4690s this fight and of course our boys of ug
4693s are going to pick up that elimination
4694s turning now to VC going head to-head
4697s here with ntl ntl zero already investing
4701s that Tami ultimate but completely
4703s separated from his team here makes the
4707s sacrifice play as VC cleans up an
4710s elimination ski also completely separate
4714s from the team tryhard nowhere to be seen
4717s on the map here these players are just
4720s across the map from one another b& JC
4723s more than happy to pick up the free
4725s elimination here even though it's
4727s they're only their first kill try hard
4730s still with the white armor on the
4731s backside here needs to be careful
4733s because BC still in the area it looks
4736s like try hard waiting it out trying to
4738s play the smart game here as we're going
4740s to turn it now to team Lobby 28 who are
4744s back off the respawn here this is the
4745s team we caught out earlier and it was
4747s xcg who went ahead and sent them back to
4749s the soul alter and it looks like they
4751s haven't been able to find too many
4752s resources thus far
4754s Dobby not a lot of resources here as o
4757s was able to successfully pick up their
4758s fourth elimination drg and VNC able to
4761s at least get one elimination on the here
4763s so the rest of the team is going to have
4764s to start to pick up some type of slack
4766s here they're going to see something here
4767s but it looks like Oh you's getting a
4769s little bit confident so is the rest of
4770s the team here they might be pushing on
4771s IDC Brandon ends up getting caught out
4773s first beautiful mon on both sides both
4776s going to be able to form and start to
4777s see if maybe they can get some grabs oh
4779s Rose Brando end up actually gets grabbed
4781s and immediately slammed within seconds
4784s and just like that both monks are
4785s fighting this out beautiful grab coming
4787s in from rosemary as he's able to get the
4789s grab he goes for the throw down
4791s anticipating the rest of it right click
4793s connect coming in from you you able to
4795s finish off the rest of them here as
4797s Rosemary is going to do an amazing job
4800s here getting a beautiful beautiful
4802s two-piece here as the rest of the team
4803s is going to be able to clean up the rest
4805s of that roster oh my God that was such a
4808s disappointing fight very unfortunate
4810s that bandoro was immediately picked up
4813s as those monk olds went live speaking of
4815s Monk olds we're going to turn back to
4818s hlg coming in here team 28 with the
4821s double grab but not going to find a lot
4822s of follow up on it we're going to see
4823s the groy ult invested here as d22 29
4828s holding on for dear life here is going
4829s to feel forced to go ahe and use that U
4831s all monk for monk going here Han not
4834s able to find the slam that he's looking
4836s for Grump will be coming in with that
4838s karumi ultimate now to cover for the
4841s rest of Lobby 28 as we speak but to
4844s noi's mon going to be going down team 28
4847s here needs to back away and create some
4850s distance because they have invested all
4852s three alss and fun plus Phoenix waiting
4854s the wings here coming in for the third
4856s party they smell blood in the water and
4859s they are hungry they haven't picked up
4861s any eliminations yet this game Grump
4863s immediately separated from the rest of
4865s the team immediate Target selection this
4868s is a textbook fun Plus Phoenix they see
4871s the Healer they lock them down they
4873s eliminate them knowing how crucial they
4876s are to the team and the rest of the team
4878s can't do anything about it and we're
4880s going to see hlg here still locked on to
4882s team 28 it looks like tanoshi also has
4885s gone down so now 28 with a single player
4889s Left Alive they have no resurrections
4892s here maybe we're going to see here we'll
4894s watch The Kill feed to see what happens
4896s Dobby as we take a look here drg and CD
4899s getting ready to go head to-head and I
4901s do believe team GG also in the mix
4904s here as they end up getting pushed out
4906s here the T Warrior already starts to
4908s form and so does the monk so does the
4911s Viper as well three ultis in one as
4913s there's so much happening here trying to
4914s see if he can get the stun and they're
4915s able to at least stop the throw down on
4919s corki from drg as he ends up waking up
4922s from it as well immediately gets hit
4924s from the ulti as well tries to see if he
4925s can find it and finds corki again for
4928s the grab ends up getting absolutely
4930s pelted by Oh by so many shots coming in
4933s from the repeating crossbow but szi from
4935s drg is going to be able to come in and
4937s close out that finish sansi trying to
4939s get a little bit Brave on lxm the LM is
4941s going to be immediately shut that down
4942s the 2V1
4943s not looking easy for him here as they're
4945s both going to find him ends up catching
4946s on the inside he's going to be able to
4948s hit them with the poison but it's not
4949s going to be enough as drg is going to
4951s shut down lxm from GG yeah drg coming in
4956s making that new Tesa swap clean sure
4959s enough we immediately cut back to the
4961s situation from before and that's going
4963s to be team Lobby 28 eliminated from this
4966s Lobby hlg pick up their first
4968s elimination of the game here and it's
4972s unfortunate for team Lobby 28 as we take
4976s a look those first set of Realm of yangs
4978s getting ready to come into play as Zone
4980s one gets ready to collapse we're going
4982s to see one just to the east of celestra
4985s and one just to the north side of even
4988s TI Temple sure enough there we go it's
4990s going to be klaa versus VC also xcg
4995s going head-to-head with fun Plus Phoenix
4997s Rosemary poing up here immediately going
5000s to pop that monk ultimate heading into
5003s this match up we're going to see what
5004s B&C does the mirror match up who's going
5007s to come out on top oo look at this
5009s Rosemary over the horizontal charge
5012s there able to just jump through the long
5013s sword slash there Rosemary with no grabs
5015s under the belt yet needs to cover for
5017s the rest of the team here vng sees Roy
5020s he with a huge double grab there doing a
5023s lot of damage he's also able to cover
5026s for his team Rosemary just goes down
5029s once the karumi is gone there's nothing
5031s they can do in v&c just comes out on top
5034s that was brutal textbook mirror match
5037s there from
5038s B&C being able to read that situation
5041s they knew exactly how to maneuver it
5042s here but the question is can xcg do the
5045s same thing on fun Plus Phoenix it looks
5046s like so far but the Maneuvers are doing
5048s well here as both of them have that
5049s Terracotta Warrior trying to see if they
5051s can push onwards towards this oh no nice
5053s hits to be able to collide him as well
5054s as water he's going to put some damage
5055s onto water here the question is is he
5057s going to come back forward yes he is
5059s absolutely slash him right back and says
5061s right back at you buddy Z trying to see
5064s if he can close this out here trying to
5065s see if maybe he can get some hits onto
5066s dun Queen and ends up being able to do
5068s that successfully Z trying to see the
5071s opportunity as they lose as sight on it
5073s as water dangerously low good defense
5075s happening on both sides here trying to
5076s block the blessings away from lhm but it
5078s doesn't matter as Z as n q is going to
5081s be able to get the elimination onto Z
5083s way and now even working towards this
5085s down trying to see if they can close in
5086s this Gap and hits him with the fan
5089s pulling him back Don Queen eliminated
5091s and so is water xcg the consistency is
5095s clearly showing look xcg just coming in
5098s making it happen here six eliminations
5100s under their belt that's a realm of Yang
5102s under their belt they're playing
5104s transformer comp right now they are in
5106s the exact position they want to be
5108s heading into this mid game they're going
5110s to be able to scale up so well from this
5114s and now look they're going to come out
5115s they're going to do a little bit of
5116s shopping they've got quite a bit of
5118s money to spend here I think there was
5120s 100K dark tide coins Dobby that's a a
5123s lot of Moola that's a lot of stuff you
5125s can get you you can you can definitely
5127s do some soul Jade pushes and see what
5129s you can pull up out of that but let's go
5130s back to the replays here from 's angle
5132s something that we missed from earlier
5133s here as he's able to come down whoa hits
5137s him with the stunt so does the Viper
5139s come through out of nowhere blocking
5141s their opportunity and their chance to
5142s get into the realm of Yang and literally
5144s stops them cold cut before they can even
5147s get into the
5149s the that's just crazy back to VGC with
5153s the mirror match this time outside the
5155s realm of Yang here k a little bit on the
5158s back foot here as we see Roy he standing
5161s here inside the kial just trying to
5163s throw those hands and create pressure
5165s for the team Rosemary a little pressured
5168s backwards here as well but CXC with the
5171s karumi ultimate of their own is going to
5172s be able to top the team back up here and
5175s buy them some fresh space that said
5177s b&c's loves coming in here on the uan
5179s the Terra Cotta Warrior starts to tear
5181s through the team and now the third party
5184s he gets to come in for the mixup as xcg
5188s shows up Roy he with a massive jumping
5190s Perry coming in onto Rosemary the tumble
5194s down the side of the cliff Roy is hungry
5196s for this elimination he feels like he's
5197s earned it he's not even paying attention
5199s to xcg he just wants to get the
5201s elimination onto Rosemary here Rosemary
5205s oh my goodness he gets the par yet again
5207s and Roy he he says I'll put my blinders
5210s on I'm full committed I'll pick up the
5212s elimination unfortunately loves goes
5214s down Roy goes down and it doesn't matter
5217s they still find Value out of the
5218s Vermilion Birds might they might go back
5220s to the soul alter but they're going to
5221s have every piece of loot that they had
5223s we're going to see K's U here trying to
5225s get away cuz xcg wants to follow this up
5228s and pick up even more eliminations
5231s because xcg is off to a tear right now
5234s Dobby they have double digit
5236s eliminations they're at
5238s 10 already what a strong start here and
5241s we're just and the circle just starting
5243s to to Shadows corrupt into Circle Number
5245s Two we haven't even at least finished
5247s Circle Number Two and we're already at
5248s double digits as it is meanwhile BC a
5251s little bit surprising for that
5252s elimination Roy he he got a little bit
5255s bloodthirsty but he was able to
5257s successfully get that elimination but
5258s that did cause him and the team a quick
5260s Resurrection so unfortunate but they can
5262s come back and bounce back super super
5264s hard obviously like you said before that
5267s um realm of Yang win definitely was a
5268s very big asset so obviously they used it
5270s to their advantage here hopefully trying
5271s to get more than one elimination and so
5273s far they were able to find it as as they
5275s find K's U ug working towards it as much
5279s as possible here has nowhere to go no
5282s way to find any which way shape or form
5285s and just like that K is out for our game
5288s number one Speaking of teams that might
5291s be out here hlg here on the hunt for fun
5294s Plus Phoenix who still have that Yang
5296s depletion they're trying to make some
5298s pressure here fun Plus Phoenix the rest
5300s of their team going to be coming in here
5302s hlg though want to put pressure onto
5305s them there is no Al Zone nearby so hlg
5307s could potentially run in there and wait
5309s for Waters ultimate to run out or force
5312s their hand on the chase for the ultimate
5315s to end here but it looks like hg's Han
5317s going to go for the ultimate here going
5319s to start looking for the grabs he's able
5321s to find one can he find the second it
5323s doesn't look like he does he does get
5325s the one though needs to find the second
5327s xiaoi will go down no opportunity to use
5329s the ultimate and hlg already coming com
5332s out on top here as fun Plus Phoenix gets
5335s put on the back
5336s foot absolutely insane even with water
5340s just trying to get away as much as
5341s possible trying not to get caught ends
5343s up getting hit by a beautiful musket
5345s shot a jumping musket as he's trying to
5348s rotate this out and it looks like cuckoo
5349s is deciding not to push on realizing
5352s that they do have repairs and they need
5353s to be able to do them knowing that it'll
5355s be a lot harder to hit your shots and
5357s shoot them as well heading towards the
5359s next player as we look back at bgt here
5362s attemp number three for them look v&c
5366s looking to take a second realm of Yang
5368s here and let's see if they put another
5370s clinic on here for the mirror match they
5373s went into of course Transformers comp
5376s last time and they were able to just
5378s absolutely dominate it they pick up the
5380s double grab they're able to get the huge
5382s slam onto Kumi and Target her down
5384s before she ever gets to get any healing
5386s out and it absolutely just blitzes down
5389s the other Transformers comp but there is
5392s is a potential that they could take this
5394s R of Yang for free as it looks like
5395s nobody else's head in yet there's still
5397s 20 seconds left remaining time will tell
5400s whether they do get challenged or if
5402s they take this R of Yang completely for
5403s free xcg come on XC you know you want to
5406s you know you want to you know you want
5408s to yeah baby uh-oh they're thinking
5411s about it Dobby nope looks like fun Plus
5414s Phoenix might have wait nope no fun plus
5416s Fenix is able to go ahead andc got it
5418s for free wow yeah fun plus Fenix does
5420s get a resurrection it looks like they
5422s were able to get xiaoi back into the
5424s lobby here so they might have been able
5427s to break away from L hlg and keep their
5430s game alive ntl here also having gotten
5432s hero back into the lobby as well
5435s unfortunately they are still on all blue
5437s armors here so looking to scale up here
5440s and they are the only sand siphon comp
5444s in this Lobby and this is a comp that
5446s should be doing exceptionally well into
5449s this Lobby given how many Transformers
5451s comp there are and fortunately they
5452s haven't put a single elimination up on
5454s the board yet and it's a risky call to
5456s do it this early into our first game I
5458s know that you were talking about
5460s probably seeing sand siphon at least
5461s somewhat maybe towards the middle but
5463s being able to do it off the rip and and
5465s kind of not producing any kills is
5467s definitely going to be kind of tough uh
5468s going F further into these games well
5471s game one makes a lot of sense to play
5472s sand siphon into because it's a
5475s nighttime map so there's a lot of
5476s fireflies and sand siphon is so heavily
5479s reliant on that teada ultimate so being
5481s able to get that ultimate up online very
5484s early super strong for this particular
5486s comp but because they get caught out
5488s early they lose one to two of their
5490s players they are now forced to play from
5492s behind the problem is is now they are
5495s going to be down this comp later on
5498s because you can only play it so many
5499s times because of those hero Point rules
5501s taking a look here a lot of these teams
5503s just kind of starting to move into a
5506s Slowdown of phases here VGC like we said
5509s earlier able to walk away with that
5511s Mystic might able bble to get that realm
5513s of Yang for free which is just going to
5514s give them a lot of loot to scale into
5517s the late game and we know how important
5519s that loot is for something like the
5521s Transformers comp so they are going to
5522s be an absolute Menace as we take a look
5525s at the overall scoreboard here we can
5526s see xcg still in first place with 10
5529s eliminations already Dobby UG and VGC
5532s tying it out for second place with six
5534s eliminations each and in fourth place is
5536s going to be drg with that new version of
5538s the Viper comp there utilizing Tessa
5543s Tesla being a very strong asset to this
5545s team here as we're looking at 5 to1 is
5547s weing over to see Team GG the question
5550s is are they potentially going to be able
5552s to go on the offense and maybe attack
5554s this or are they just going to watch
5556s back and maybe play this safe realizing
5560s 5 to1 only has one elimination on the
5561s board they will have to potentially
5562s Force something here and maybe hope for
5564s a decent elimination here as they are
5566s going to try to hit some decent cannon
5569s shots here onto them just to see if
5571s maybe they might be able to take the
5572s bait or if they start to fight it but I
5574s don't think necessarily that 521 wants
5577s that smoke as they're going to decide to
5578s move just a little bit further past and
5580s away from Team GG we look back here up
5583s onto our next SE section here it's going
5584s to be xcg up top like you said 10
5587s eliminations 10 points overall a very
5589s strong start for a very consistent team
5591s and a team that we've seen absolutely
5593s dominate time and time again following
5595s behind that is two six Place uh two six
5598s elimination teams coming in from UG and
5600s VGC and rounding that out close to the
5602s top five here is drg with four
5604s eliminations coming into the space here
5606s 1 V3 coming in as ug's SS currently is
5608s in the middle of a fight ski absolutely
5610s gets drilled out by the rest of the
5611s squad here and now the rest of starts to
5613s come through separating the rest of the
5615s pack here both the sand siphon and the
5617s UL comes through here from the Viper
5619s able to slay out hero out of nowhere try
5622s hard just trying to hide this out in
5624s such a very open area here would be very
5627s easy for them to potentially spot them
5629s though but there's no way they he
5632s actually might have an opportunity if
5633s they're not paying attention here he
5634s could potentially get them up and get
5636s this right back going if he needs to
5638s here he's got to get the ski as quick as
5640s possible if he has the opportunity to
5641s and decides not to pick up his
5644s teammates he decides maybe to rotate
5646s into the circle and probably realizes
5647s it's not that oh he actually doesn't
5648s have any heals he doesn't have any heals
5650s so it's better for him to focus on maybe
5652s getting back into the circle but he is
5653s dangerously low he's got no grapples
5656s Dobby unfortunately this is going to be
5657s it for team ntl here this was a
5660s nightmare situation for ntl Not only was
5664s Viper comp originally developed as a
5666s counter mechanism to that Transformers
5669s comp having Tessa slotted into to that
5672s yohime slot now actually makes it even
5675s worse for Transformer comp so coming in
5678s to see that version of Viper comp catch
5680s you out on the edge of the Zone with a
5682s guaranteed lock down into lock down
5685s there was almost nothing ntl could do in
5687s that situation it was just a complete
5691s nightmare for them as we take a look and
5693s move across here where we're going to
5695s take a look into xcg xcg here doing a
5698s little bit of that prayer statue picking
5700s up some goodies there xiaon seems happy
5704s with what he walked away with taking a
5706s look niq there with that legendary staff
5709s opting to put it on to the uan is a very
5712s interesting choice I happen to agree
5714s with it because the monk already has so
5717s much power once he has that purple tier
5719s weapon if he gets a double grab it's
5721s still almost to guaranteed elimination
5723s whereas Yuan he's out there he's able to
5726s hit single Target damage so you really
5728s want to be able to give him that extra
5731s power boost so that if you're trying to
5733s focus a Target down he's able to really
5736s help the team do that now we are zone
5739s four which means these Morris blessings
5741s coming up are going to contain gold
5743s armor and these are going to be very
5745s huge for this particular game given how
5747s many of these Transformer comps there
5749s are because that gold armor is going to
5751s scale how much HP they have when they
5752s transform so a lot of these teams going
5755s to be fighting over it we can see fun
5756s Plus Phoenix already investing their
5758s monk ultimate to try to cover this box
5760s so that they can find that scale in and
5762s this is a team that's struggled all game
5764s right now they're on blue armor Xiao
5766s here taking a lot of those rain shots
5768s but his team here crucially looks like
5770s they've been able to open that box
5772s they're going to get that legendary
5773s armor and walk away they just need to
5776s survive now that xiaoi does not have
5778s that ultimate they need to be very
5780s careful CU if these teams decide to
5781s swoop in on them they are down an
5784s ultimate and it's going to spell
5786s disaster and sure enough IDC has seen
5788s that they are down an ultimate and want
5790s to come in and mix it up but they see
5793s how many other teams are here and decide
5795s it might be better to take this fight
5796s another day ug going to block the path
5799s of fun Plus Phoenix though so theyve got
5801s to move through multiple teams here B&C
5803s also waiting up top oh my goodness the
5805s Phoenix Blast coming in off the long
5807s store doing a ton of damage the xiaoi
5809s here he doesn't have the armor they're
5810s going to come in as team is going to do
5812s an armor swap water here going to heal
5814s that blue armor back up xoui going to
5816s cover him with the calvary Bloom able to
5819s make it work fun Plus Phoenix stays
5821s alive and his heading into late game and
5823s this is going to be huge because fun
5825s Plus Phoenix where they typically pop
5827s off is when they're able to take control
5829s of final Zone Dobby that was so smooth
5832s just being able to do a quick swap on
5833s each side here while they're rotating
5835s that in and water ends up taking that
5837s shield and going I'll heal it up for you
5839s while you're still maintaining here
5840s while everybody's focused on on you you
5842s have a full shield they won't be looking
5843s at me and that gives me an opportunity
5845s to heal up that quickness was so fast
5847s you could barely actually see the actual
5849s Shield drop that's just how fast they
5851s were able to drop it and pick it up and
5852s be able to continue on their mosy way
5854s and no one noticed a absolute thing now
5856s obviously coming back into this ug going
5859s back into the caves here it looks like
5860s IDC might have just left from there
5862s potentially as we see them heading in a
5864s different direction and it looks like
5866s VGC as well also has it as it looks like
5868s he might have it looks like uh the loves
5870s has the overlord that's could be an
5872s opportunity there for them to absolutely
5874s pack out and start to fight this out
5876s here as drg want some of that action as
5879s the musk starts start to Ricochet
5881s towards them sansy trying to see if
5883s maybe they can find any type of decent
5884s hits here as Roy he actually ends up
5886s getting hit by a Canon from
5888s somebody and it looks like they're going
5890s to try to see if they rotate this in
5891s maybe 521 looks like they they're using
5894s this opportunity for their timing as
5896s well just waiting for the time to see if
5898s they're going to push throws out a
5899s couple of taunt shots from the cannon
5901s trying to see maybe but with a Comm and
5903s what he has clearly they do not want to
5905s join in on that fight as we look back
5906s into the rotation here hlg is getting
5908s hit with massive massive bow shots here
5911s got to have to be careful it's fun Plus
5912s Phoenix still has that far open section
5914s to themselves here realistically even
5916s with the rotation they still have an
5918s open space to be able to continue to
5920s Mosey on in as hldg very similar as on
5923s the inside has a safe space here but
5925s they are going to have to rotate this in
5926s CU they're not safe from the actual
5928s Circle this is where things are going to
5929s get tight this is when things are about
5931s to get get crazy and this is where
5933s everybody needs to start paying
5934s attention CU this is where things get
5936s good you know we still have this other
5938s mors blessing sitting here in the middle
5940s of the map and the fights are going to
5941s start to break out cuz again these teams
5943s desperately need to scale heading into
5945s the final moments of this game we are
5948s zone 5 getting ready to collapse onto
5949s zone six so those legendary armors for
5952s these Transformer comps specifically to
5954s be able to put on the monk is going to
5956s be absolutely huge and it seems like
5958s we've gone backwards just a little bit
5960s in terms of this Transformer comp
5962s typically what we actually started to
5964s see was a lot of these teams putting
5965s that legendary armor onto the karumi to
5968s be able to give the karumi a little bit
5969s more coverage because she doesn't have
5971s the transformation now they've just
5973s decided we need to keep the monk alive
5975s we're going to put that legendary armor
5977s onto the Monk and he utilizes that way
5980s yeah IDC just taking shots left right
5982s and c v andc no Advantage when they see
5985s one and they are pressuring it to death
5987s here lexon finds an armor swap it's not
5989s too much of one Z going to be forced to
5991s use the ultimate here and then VC just
5993s moves away they come in they pressure
5996s resources they pressure heals they
5998s pressure ultimates and then just
6000s immediately back away and say cool we
6003s got a ton of value out of that we're not
6006s going to reposition and find ourselves
6008s being in a bad position we're going to
6009s wait for these ultimates to go down and
6011s then we're going to press that Advantage
6013s even more B&C there it is IDC coming
6016s down looking to try to make something
6018s out of this ultimate unfortunately Z is
6020s going to find that ultimate going down
6021s he's not able to heal the armor while
6023s he's in the old he's trying to use the
6025s spear just to move across and v&c starts
6027s to put the heat on here xcg waiting in
6030s the wings brandur going to feel forced
6032s to pop the ultimate now but he's got to
6033s be careful he touches that no old Zone
6035s he's going to lose it there it is oh my
6037s goodness bandoro just trying to come in
6039s and find some cover for the team doesn't
6041s make it happen ug coming in SS here with
6044s a massive VI but he's going to get
6046s grabbed up here in the end hlg's Han
6048s with them hand jie will find one on to
6051s ppy and it's going to be a kill feed
6053s going crazy here Roy he picks up 5 21's
6057s aame and the monk hands are going wild
6061s Dobby absolutely insane here the hands
6063s are going wild just like how you said
6065s they're trying to throw out as many
6066s opportunities to grab something and now
6067s it looks like we got a monk fight as Han
6069s is going to be absolutely hit zahu and
6070s zahu also goes down as well from there
6072s and now it's just straight mod model
6074s fighting the cannon shop doing absolute
6075s devastation but now he ends up getting
6077s grabbed and now he's on the wrong side
6079s of this gets a double and 330 ends up
6081s catching an elimination when I've told
6083s you before he is one of the best buks of
6084s this game 330 shows it time and time
6086s again oh no ends up getting hit by the
6089s bow and stun by the Viper ulti drg has
6092s an opportunity to shut down ggs at 330
6096s and they do just that drg comes in with
6098s a beautiful time to push waits for the
6100s Viper all gets the St comes through now
6102s they got a free section for them to be
6104s able to maneuver and rotate the hlg
6106s still has space but now they might be
6109s having to lose that and might have to
6111s cost something because now grg has all
6114s this space to do anything that they need
6116s to fun Plus Phoenix might have an
6118s opportunity if they really want to here
6120s 521 is just trying to hold the smallest
6122s amount of this corner that they can by
6124s themselves because everybody's just
6125s trying to maneuver onto each other space
6127s making it harder giving somebody a
6129s chance to choke if there's a possibility
6132s or if Roy he could potentially get a
6133s grab out of nowhere there is the
6135s opportunity and he does as Roy he
6137s catches two he gets an elimination he
6139s gets one he's going to immediately get
6141s the elimination for that one but his
6143s teammate's going to be able to take that
6145s one from him but that's okay though xcg
6147s goes so strong here 11 eliminations
6149s already Roy he he catches another before
6152s he's about to lose his ulti and the
6154s timing of the ulti immediately comes
6156s through from Viper the question is can
6158s they secure this D oh my God v&c
6160s absolutely going off Roy he here for vng
6164s say these hands raided e for everyone
6167s ladies and gentlemen as they bring the
6170s heat oh are currently at 10 eliminations
6173s but the question is how are they going
6175s to handle
6176s xcg oh my goodness no Roy he and his
6181s teammate get picked up by the players of
6184s hlg Han sends them back to Tokyo ladies
6189s and gentlemen oh my goodness the double
6192s slam again Han finds one he finds two
6196s can he find another one xcg loses their
6200s karumi who will come out on top BC still
6204s has one player left remaining can he
6207s clutch this game out NQ gets picked up
6210s in the end here and it all goes
6214s down meanwhile with this one is z and he
6217s going to be able to hold strong here and
6219s now it's just a 3v one 's the King by
6222s himself here just waiting this out as he
6224s does end up getting grabbed and now he's
6225s just holding him goes for the grab
6227s throws him on the outskirts here just
6229s trying to see if he can get some free
6230s grabs hlg's h on shield and is getting
6233s destroyed same so does cuckoo the ug the
6236s king could actually make this a problem
6239s for it currently it looks like it's a
6240s 2v2 situation as now both of them have
6242s created a peace treaty and now they're
6244s fighting one of each other's teammates
6246s just to make sure that it doesn't become
6248s a quick 2v2 of each other and now there
6250s is that opportunity to get him on the
6251s outskirts cuckoo dangerously low this
6254s could be huge for OU to be able to
6256s secure that elimination and he does
6258s ladies and gentlemen he could be able to
6259s close this out but xtg could potentially
6262s clutch this he holds this beautiful
6264s Parry to try to get the defense both of
6266s them just trying to hold on for as long
6267s as possible Z him trying to see if he
6269s does it ug is the king sends them
6272s outside of the circle ladies and
6273s gentlemen ug shuts them down oh my
6278s goodness ladies and gentlemen I do
6280s believe xcg is going to come out on top
6283s in the end with the total number of
6285s kills and eliminations but ug's the king
6288s showing why he used to be the king king
6291s of solos Dobby literally sends that man
6295s into next week and says don't worry
6297s about today's games you can worry about
6299s next weeks and him so far he had a nice
6302s little start super far it hits a little
6304s little ding that's just how far he sent
6307s them outside of that Circle what a
6308s beautiful display and a beautiful ending
6311s to that one ug still has to feel good
6313s especially the king not only with that
6315s clutch but they still get those rank
6317s points for that dub though oh my
6320s goodness that man said come here I'm
6322s going to knock you right out the park B
6324s bring it here big boy I got you
6325s something nice and sweet right here
6327s that's exactly what all you G's the king
6329s I'm telling you it's that handsomeness
6331s that handsomeness comes with some
6332s confidence and that's exactly what he
6333s brought to that game you know what I got
6334s to appreciate xcg real quick not only
6337s are they going to be our MVPs for this
6338s game but xcg said hey Ro you know what
6343s we're big fan I know you're a big fan of
6346s us you tired of not seeing us on camera
6350s you're tired of hearing about us once we
6352s get to game five game six it's time to
6355s show you how we going come out game one
6358s exactly that's what I'm talking about
6360s much you know what those new jerseys are
6363s just so clean man the level of
6365s confidence a clean New Jersey brings you
6368s is next level and these boys
6373s delivered let alone with let alone with
6375s the color scape as well here just like
6377s how you said but also just having your
6379s name on the back of it too there's
6381s always something nice about when you get
6382s some new merch and you get your name it
6384s feels professional it feels like all
6386s that hard work is paid off and now we're
6388s here we still got a little bit more work
6389s to do and clearly xcg knows that as
6392s they're probably as they're going to
6393s close out this game with that dub but ug
6395s with those four ranking points are
6397s definitely going to be like really
6399s really really helpful that first place
6401s for ug clutching that up is definitely
6403s going to put
6404s the oh yeah I mean absolutely and then
6406s v&c as well come in I mean dude Roy HEI
6410s man he started throwing
6411s hands r e for everybody that's what you
6413s were saying earlier that rated E for
6415s everybody was crazy he he was like
6418s everybody can get it everybody in every
6420s which way the timing was amazing not
6422s only that but so was the CBS even with
6425s 3:30 330 got some amazing eliminations
6428s as well with that started really the
6430s trend of all of the monks to just come
6432s through he gets some grabs he gets some
6434s grabs and then when he dunks immediately
6436s he gets grabbed it's like you you know
6438s who else became a problem in those final
6440s circles who's that we were talking about
6441s hlg earlier han man dude we come back to
6445s Han he was like double grab slam double
6448s grab slam regrab before he could even
6451s get the slam his teammate was like don't
6453s worry about it I got it dusted it off
6454s Reach Out double grab slam with theana
6457s don't worry about this I
6459s got whole the whole Lobby was like wait
6461s a minute where did Han come from Han
6464s started to pop off he was like these
6466s hands are also rated to e for everybody
6467s I am also uh e rating as well so don't
6470s don't get me wrong this is not
6472s discriminatory but even with that though
6474s what an incredible performance from xcg
6476s UG and and to be honest with you all of
6478s the teams all around so far it's very
6481s been a very very very strong strong
6483s start overall definitely the three that
6485s pop into my head is obviously o and ug
6487s VGC and obviously I mean xcg I mean you
6490s were just talking about it before
6491s consistency consistency consistency and
6494s clearly xcg brought that in this first
6496s game oh I mean look they just came in
6498s and played one heck of a game and you
6500s know what I've got to appreciate this is
6502s a throwback to the first J cup cuz you
6504s know what the first J Cup this final
6506s circle is the final Circle we would have
6508s seen every single game man it was all
6510s Transformers all the time it was
6512s everybody throwing feel like a throwback
6515s yeah exactly felt like a throwback the
6516s the players coming in giving us a little
6518s bit of a treat here say hey we got to
6520s remember the good old days and we going
6521s to come in and we going to bring that
6523s Transformer comp and we going to make it
6524s happen I also got to talk about drg I
6526s love me some drg no matter what put up
6530s some numbers winning or losing they are
6532s always so entertaining to watch we talk
6534s about this all the time I know it's one
6536s of your favorite things when Viper comes
6537s in with the Tactical nuke but when we
6539s cut back to them waiting there's the
6542s team waiting for the realm of Yang to
6544s come in and their test is just like
6546s tactical nuke from the top rope
6548s just drops H him with the Hop who goes
6551s there D not going anywhere as xtg comes
6554s through
6556s 24.9 game score 16 eliminations but ug
6560s with those four ranking points put them
6562s in second place 10 eliminations and 18
6566s plus points what a strong strong
6569s Showmanship coming in from ug as well as
6572s the king their leader being able to put
6573s that down for the team VGC rhe
6576s absolutely destroyed 10 eliminations as
6578s well that 1.5 raing points gave him that
6580s top three ending it with that four
6583s 14.5 yeah hlg again Han just coming in
6587s making it happen in the final moments
6588s this is a team that we you know have had
6590s picked up like one or two eliminations
6592s they had like skirted teams that were
6594s running from the end and in the end Han
6596s just pops
6598s off my only thing that I I I I want to
6601s like realize too I'm going to look back
6603s at the bods too I don't when we were
6606s down to the final like three people I
6609s thought that it was just those two teams
6612s and come to find out oh you G's um the
6615s king comes out of nowhere and he's just
6617s hiding in a rock and I was like where
6619s have you been hold on on I
6622s don't where have you been have you been
6624s up top and just just like no one paid
6625s attention like I was like are he oh was
6627s on trees the de man hit him with one of
6630s the they hit him in the trees that's all
6632s I'm going to say as we look back to
6633s replays here obviously seeing Kaa trying
6636s to see if they can get some nice hits
6638s there that beautiful grab that we saw
6639s from earlier here and being able to get
6642s that carry on as he does get that slam
6644s his teammates was able to get the rest
6645s of that beautiful elimination here as
6647s they do star to close that in and
6649s obviously IDC and the rest of the team
6651s just couldn't just couldn't hang for
6653s this first game here but here's that
6654s drop that we were talking about
6655s beautiful ulti beautiful time stun the
6658s Alti of the Viper comes through loses
6661s everyone's momentum nobody goes into the
6663s realm of Yang nobody fights in the 1 V
6665s ones and ug forced them to fight their
6668s fight absolutely I love to see it coming
6672s in taking a look back here GG 330 again
6675s one of the classic monk players here
6677s making it happen 330 unfortunately just
6679s getting Blitz down right now by that
6681s counter mon comp there coming in from
6684s drg making it look clean my man as we
6688s take a look here BGC oh this is where
6690s Roy just goes off my dude turn up oh the
6694s hands rated E for everybody xon coming
6697s into everybody getting their little monk
6699s moment here but I I'm I'm waiting Monk
6702s on the Four Corners definitely was like
6703s a moment here there was that moment of a
6704s mon for Corner game you know what I'm
6706s saying it was like one of those classic
6708s games you used to play here as they were
6709s always pushing this out out and looking
6710s at ug the timing just is beautiful he
6713s times it beautifully well with the focus
6715s strike and was able to absolutely use
6717s his long sword says see
6720s you
6723s byebye oh my goodness send him in next
6726s week like we're about to send ourselves
6728s into game number two Dobby because game
6730s number one might have just ended and
6732s we're going to take a look at our MVP
6734s here from it and it's going to be xiaan
6736s coming in from xcg look at this 21,000
6740s almost 22,000 damage Dobby eight
6743s eliminations five assists storm strride
6746s meteor siphon technique poison Splash we
6749s saw that poison Splash a lot in that
6752s final Circle coming through and look at
6753s this 7,500 coming through from the fan
6757s the other 7K coming in from the cannon
6761s these are these are Solo numbers these
6764s are like what we would see in our solo
6766s game so times that plus two other
6768s players that put up the same same great
6771s performance is insane just to let you
6774s know that by the way cuz that's just
6776s absolutely nutty to see that type of
6777s numbers and go hey this is what a trios
6779s team can do from one person imagine what
6781s three people can do on top of that and
6783s that's exactly what fcg was able to
6785s display okay it's a type of display
6787s that's almost as good as every infoo she
6789s used to wake up to in the middle of the
6790s night well you know what else we got to
6792s put on display Dobby we've got a quick
6794s question for all of our viewers watching
6796s at home from twitch which team earned
6799s the most score in this last match is it
6801s a 521 B xcg C bngc or D ntl and again
6808s like y got to be pay ATT going to be an
6809s easy one for the first one y'all better
6811s be paying attention y had to watching
6813s the first if you didn't watch this first
6814s game then I don't know what to tell I
6815s don't know what to tell you I don't know
6817s what to tell you it's it's got to be the
6819s easiest choice I think so far and it's
6820s probably going to be the easiest
6821s question that we have uh overall here
6823s but before we get into that and before
6825s we get ready for game number two we got
6827s one quick interview to show you guys
6828s before we lock it in for game two see
6830s you
6859s moment
6889s for
6909s I won't lie Roy he almost created that
6912s miracle in this first game like he
6915s almost did it even with the stun and all
6919s like like he almost did it so I'm he's
6921s got five more chances to do it at least
6923s in this game let alone the amount of
6925s games that he's going to be doing
6926s overall I thoroughly believe he cuz he
6927s said he's going to get three in this
6930s third and I'm
6932s like okay we love a little bit of
6934s confidence sir but
6936s Siro what if hello I I need to know what
6940s you be using cuz I need to I need that
6942s kind of confidence that's all I got look
6944s Roy is one heck of a player this is a
6947s warm-up game true warm up game baby if
6950s that's a warm- up game I'm just
6952s terrified of what like a game when
6954s they're ready is you know I got to uh
6957s meet Roy and his coach earlier this week
6960s they're amazing great guys they're just
6962s like the the chillest dudes you've ever
6965s met but man Roy he's got that look in
6967s his eye man I'll tell you what he looks
6969s unexpecting at first when you see him
6971s but then when he looks you in the eye
6973s he's got like that eye of the tiger
6975s thing going on like you look you see it
6977s and you're like oh there's a killer in
6978s there you know know what I'm saying I
6980s did not see you in these
6984s games Roy's out here like Ru I
6986s appreciate you as a Caster but don't
6987s roll up in the rock yeah if I see you
6990s it's over if I see you it's over I'm
6993s fully W keying you I'm sorry I was just
6996s I was just trying to I was just trying
6997s to have fun CU we're able to lock this
7000s in and get ready for our game number two
7001s here obviously coach from from drg so
7005s far I mean drg definitely put up a a
7007s pretty decent performance overall in
7009s this game G number one definitely still
7011s have some work to do but there was a lot
7013s of action happening so let's hope that
7014s they could really turn up in game number
7016s two look I'm telling you these boys
7018s first of all I I I 100% faith that
7021s they're going to qualify and head into
7023s the grand finals we're going to see them
7024s in chungu and again no matter whether
7026s drg is winning or losing games they are
7029s always entertaining like when you cut to
7031s these dudes they're always doing
7032s something wacky having a good time
7034s they're trying new strats and just super
7037s entertaining to Rocket to watch and
7039s that's why I love them so much as a team
7041s as we take a look here hlg enemy man han
7044s was so locked in in that final Circle in
7047s the last game I haven't seen that many
7049s double grabs in a monk old in a long
7052s time cuz that man was just like yoinks
7056s Ys let me get that regrab cuz you didn't
7058s die real quick everything else in
7060s between here as we look at ug is our
7062s second place uh team and obviously the
7065s king definitely feeling some confidence
7066s here as he's going to lock it in I mean
7068s so far OU definitely put up the
7070s performance that they wanted to here and
7071s obviously being the king that he is he
7073s was able to take that crown and go I
7075s will be um handling that thank you very
7077s much you know King deserves his crown
7079s like always you know you and me had the
7081s opportunity to talk with the King and
7083s one of their man excited meet I was so
7086s he was one of the few I so excited it
7087s was super cool we were talking to him
7088s through a live stream and uh we got
7090s asked you know uh how do we feel about
7093s the King as a player and it was very
7094s reminiscent of a moment I brought back
7096s up when he was playing in solos and he
7098s was playing Yodo Heime he just has such
7101s a demanding control of final circles and
7104s this final Circle being the final player
7107s left alive for his team was extremely
7110s similar to that situation so it was so
7113s nice to get to see him kind of have that
7115s Repeat Performance coming out where he
7117s was able to come in he clutches it out
7119s for his team he made that an example but
7122s knowing that he comes from the solos
7124s he's able to come into trios the team's
7126s been able to kind of build themselves
7128s around him but he's not like this player
7131s that's all like yeah it's all about me
7133s no it's all about the team you know what
7135s I'm saying team Synergy is very
7137s important in these games as the team is
7139s going to synergize and lock in for game
7141s number two so far that energy was
7144s absolutely action packed let's keep
7146s let's see if they can keep that same
7147s energy locking it in for our game number
7149s two run take it away yeah it's going to
7151s be interesting to see what these picks
7153s are going to be no surprises here of
7156s course we are heading to hollow Roth
7157s we're going to see a lot of that sand
7159s siphon coming through we are going to
7161s see a lot a lot of that Viper comp one
7165s of them K is going to be running the
7167s very traditional version of it where
7169s they run Yodo he we're also going to see
7172s ug utilizing that new uan comp but
7176s instead of the faia this is something we
7178s theorized they we could potentially see
7181s the Justina pick in that slot and ug is
7185s going to be bringing it to bear and all
7187s of these other teams running that Viper
7190s comp of course running the version where
7191s they now run Tessa instead of the Yodo
7193s Heim so they can hold Yodo for this new
7196s Yan comp we're seeing coming out of ug
7199s but I'm
7200s surprised that the first time we're
7202s seeing it we're seeing the Justina
7204s version of this comp because all week
7207s when we've seen the scrims everybody's
7208s been running Faria there's been talk of
7211s this Justina but we haven't seen it yet
7213s so for it to be the first version of the
7215s comp we're sing coming out here in the
7216s jcup absolutely exciting wow look at
7218s this bottom left mataba is going to be a
7220s very very popular location I mean k 521
7224s bngc IDC uh Team 28 looks like K HG and
7229s fun plus Phenix is going to be in the
7230s top right section where all of the snow
7233s is and only ug is going to be singled
7236s out in that very center section looks
7238s like they're going to have that full
7239s space to themselves to do a lot and that
7241s is a lot of amazing loot that's probably
7242s going to be found in there so they'll
7244s have a lot of space to do what they need
7245s to here as we do see one team that's
7247s going to be team GG all the way on the
7249s far left section still technically in
7250s the snow section but it's towards the
7252s edge of it as they're going to be able
7254s to lock this in here but let's see how
7256s they're going to be able to rock and
7257s roll into these games here as 28 is
7260s going to push in onto ntl immediately
7263s and start to put the pressure onto him
7264s as we find hero finding this out with
7266s Grump here absolutely trying to see if
7268s they can dish it out but it's not going
7269s to be good for them oh ends up catching
7272s him all the way on the top section here
7273s has dodo trying to see if maybe they can
7275s rotate this out here the woin trying to
7276s give him a little bit of sh Shield here
7278s d229 trying to see if they can get some
7280s nice connectivity here and it looks like
7282s he wasn't able to his try hard was able
7283s to dish that out nice hits and a defense
7285s to be able to push this out not making
7287s it easy for them as try hard trying to
7289s see if they can maneuver this in here
7290s and even with that xcg comes through
7293s causes a problem but it's not going to
7295s be enough as 28 is going to be able to
7299s get that going but actually we're going
7300s to put it back on us really quickly here
7302s it looks like there could be a potential
7304s reset here for the games we actually
7306s might be uh going through a quick reset
7309s yeah it looks like maybe there was an
7311s issue with somebody's PC or something
7313s right there off of the rib so we are
7315s going to reset the lobby here ladies and
7318s gentlemen it's only going to take just a
7321s moment before we get right back into
7323s things and we are going to see these
7326s teams take these same picks as well
7328s because even if there is an issue once
7330s you have locked in those picks they are
7333s locked locked down so that does mean we
7336s are going to see that new Yan comp this
7338s game no no matter what and we're going
7340s to see the Justina version of it coming
7343s out as well and it's very interesting
7345s that we're seeing it happen this way
7347s Dobby because the reason a lot of these
7350s teams have been discussing potentially
7352s pulling the Justina into this comp over
7354s the Faria was it runs as a counter
7357s version to itself the a lot of these
7360s teams have been picking up this
7362s composition to be able to deal with the
7366s sand siphon comp right so a lot of teams
7369s are going okay so if we start seeing a
7371s lot of this composition because it's
7372s going to come through to counteract sand
7374s siphon how do we deal with the new comp
7378s right right a lot of theory crafting
7380s later they came up with well if we drop
7382s Fishin from the comp we bring Justina
7386s into the comp Justina is going to be
7388s able to deal with the fairish Shen on
7390s the other comp and we don't lose too
7392s much power into that sand siphon comp so
7395s I really expected us to see the version
7397s with Faria Shen first once the teams
7400s realized they were more comfortable with
7401s it on the stage start to go okay we felt
7404s out how many teams are really going to
7405s be playing this composition now we're
7408s going to run the counter counter comp
7410s and do the thing so to see it coming in
7412s first above everything else is a very
7414s very interesting change of pace uh
7417s because I certainly good change of pace
7420s uh I don't know how it's going to unfold
7421s here cuz again realistically you're kind
7423s of losing a little bit of power into
7424s sand siphon right but you you're kind of
7428s you're you're hedging your bets if you
7430s will right cuz you expect to see okay in
7432s a sand siphon heavy Lobby we're going to
7433s see a lot of this uan comp so we're
7437s going to run a version of it that's a
7439s little less power into sand siphon but
7441s still performs exceptionally well into
7443s the mirror matchup so I expected to see
7448s given that this is of course going to be
7449s Hollow Roth and we typically see sand
7451s siphon we see the zipping and te pics
7453s more heavily on Hollow raw I expected to
7456s see the uan comp but I didn't expect to
7458s see the coun comp come out in game one
7461s of a game where we're finally seeing
7463s this composition it's going to be
7464s interesting to see how it pans out as we
7467s do head back into this remake again
7469s there was just a small technical issue
7471s with one of the PCS and we will be
7473s getting that remake very shortly very
7475s shortly but let's talk about um
7477s definitely something that was uh a
7478s little bit off as we looked not only
7480s into that um into that game but also um
7483s into that game number one um the split
7487s um and the distance between between uh
7489s teams k k was a little bit uh or sorry
7493s not KLA ntl NL was very like kind of
7496s widespread in a lot of different areas
7497s there wasn't too much team Synergy in
7499s the sense of like you know one person
7501s was you know sometimes you know in trios
7503s sometimes they're able to at least cast
7504s one out and they have to push them out
7507s and because most of the teams are really
7509s well thought out in making sure that
7511s they're going to make sure to stick
7512s together make sure that things are going
7514s on but while all of that is going on
7516s here which of the following teams will
7517s achieve the most kills in this match
7518s let's give you guys something really
7520s quick go ahead and put your answers in
7522s it's going to be either a fun Plus
7524s Phoenix or B K but back to what I was
7527s saying um sometimes that Synergy can be
7530s all over the place what does NL need to
7532s do to lock it in well in that particular
7534s instance at the very start of that game
7537s there it it was a one for one kind of
7539s trade-off deal right hero very separated
7542s from the team but it looks like tryhard
7545s was separated off to the side because
7546s hero found himself in kind of like a 2V1
7549s and then try hard and ski were in a 2
7553s one with somebody else as well and were
7555s able to pick up that elimination so they
7556s kind of traded one for one if that makes
7559s sense but we're going to come back in
7561s just a quick second but first a quick
7563s interview with a kame from Team
7575s [Music]
7578s 52
7608s foree
7625s Fight
7635s Win live from Shanghai I'm the Room
7638s Keeper joining me is is my boy daier
7640s we're one game deep in today's trios day
7643s one of trios here in the 2023 J Cup
7647s qualifiers I'm excited Dobby to get back
7650s into game number two here we saw some
7652s crazy composition picks heading in of
7655s course we had a small technical issue
7656s but we're getting ready to launch right
7658s back into that game we're going to see
7659s those same picks coming through as well
7662s of course because once they've been
7663s revealed they can't take them back and
7666s we're going to see where these teams
7669s head on into of course we are heading to
7671s hollow Roth this map Dobby it's back to
7674s the good old good old morile Hollow Roth
7677s Morris Isle format now it's going to be
7679s interesting to see if they pick the same
7681s Landing Parts I think that's the thing
7683s that I'm mostly going to pay attention
7684s to a lot of people was really putting a
7686s lot of um benefit and hope onto matab
7689s and it looks like everybody was really
7690s thinking the same thing except for four
7692s players Max one player or actually sorry
7694s five OU was in Center ended up going for
7698s that loot pool obviously trying to go
7699s for the puzzle we had one team I think
7701s with with fun Plus Phoenix I think there
7702s was two other teams that were up top
7704s right on that snow section here that
7706s looked like they were going to use that
7707s to their advantage and obviously coming
7709s into the left side here they really had
7711s a lot of space to do what they need to
7713s so let's hope and see if they're going
7715s to actually pick the same spaces but
7717s it'll be interesting to see where uh
7721s they go because there was a lot of
7723s really great instances um in terms of
7727s how they were able to maneuver it and
7728s and what made sense but obviously for
7731s the first moment though uh we just
7733s wasn't able to see a whole lot because
7734s immediately we had to go through the
7735s reset but that is okay we are going to
7737s be able to lock this in and get it going
7739s but yeah very surprised to see matab
7741s being the very big favorite here by a
7743s lot of the players um Yan ruins I think
7746s was the next space and everybody was in
7747s empo Village into that into that big
7750s Immortal section that was a big space
7752s where um a couple of players were up
7754s there but nobody was really in Plum
7756s Castle nobody was in the city of Tang um
7759s and even towards like the top middle
7761s section like you know where that very
7762s open area is where it's an ice skating
7765s it's like where you can go ice skating
7766s not a single player was over there very
7767s surprised you know we have an
7770s affectionate nickname for that we call
7771s that ice Frank is it that's what we call
7774s it yeah so I'm so glad I just I just I
7777s you know listen I I've been casting for
7779s a while here uh for both HOV moros aisle
7783s and everything related to nraa there is
7785s so many things that have just come off
7787s of the cuff of my brain and sometimes I
7789s sit there and I go one some days I'm
7792s like I'm so good at this and then other
7793s days I'm like man I don't know how I
7796s pulled that out I don't know how I was
7797s able to be creative enough to think of
7799s something so out of my head and then
7801s other times I'm very accurate just like
7803s how you said ice rank I I I called it
7805s ice Rank and I had no idea that that's
7806s what it was act what they called it I
7808s didn't know that's what players called
7809s it well I think everybody kind of has
7811s their own nickname for it right you know
7812s what I'm saying some players call it ice
7813s field some people call it ice rink ice
7816s something or another but yeah I know
7818s exactly you're talking about I think
7819s everybody at home knows exactly what
7821s you're talking about as well as we take
7823s a look at these player cams and get
7825s ready to head back into this remake for
7828s game number two you know this
7831s unfortunately happens sometimes you're
7832s talking about a lot of PCS hooked
7834s together you know Shenanigans occur but
7837s we will be locked in here very shortly I
7840s know everybody watching at home is
7841s excited for game number two especially
7843s with the heat that we got for those
7845s first couple of seconds immediately off
7847s the rip coming in you know to no Lobby
7851s 28 goes down and then a player I think
7855s goes the changes and it looks like those
7857s changes are going to be very very strong
7859s xcg looks like fun plus Fenix at Lobby
7861s 28 is going to be headed towards the
7862s city of Tang HG is going to do their
7865s quick switch too head towards this
7867s backside of parlor ug is going to keep
7869s their same comp not going to switch up
7872s same with KLA it looks like 521 and IDC
7874s is going to keep their same as well in
7876s matab but everybody's definitely decided
7878s to spre out a little bit more it looks
7879s like um ntl and it looks like GG is
7882s going to be headed towards that yon
7883s ruins here and it looks like KLA is
7885s still going to decide to stay in M
7886s Village so some people went double down
7889s on their locations and others decided to
7891s switch it up probably the best decision
7893s you know ug in a strong position here
7895s they're taking Podium for themselves
7897s it's kind of a high-risk High reward as
7899s somebody who's played a lot of trios
7901s sometimes when you go there especially
7903s when it's not a gold Zone there just
7904s isn't enough loot for a trio team even
7907s though you get the guaranteed legendary
7908s from the box uh sometimes there is so
7911s time's going to tell whether they get
7912s enough decent loot or not but we've
7914s already got a fight breaking out here
7915s between ntl and GG ntl back at it again
7919s with the hot Drop here some very clean
7921s staff work coming in from try hard as he
7923s catches them with the juggle off of the
7925s charged R&B there ad Doo with the re
7928s coming in on the staff onto Mis here
7930s msia going extremely low they're trying
7932s to just find a way to come cover for
7934s their team 330 is able to make their way
7937s in unfortunately hero goes down try hard
7940s trying to cover for the team a doo also
7943s trying to make some magic happen try
7945s hard M times the Parry unfortunately
7947s will go down and there's nothing ad Doo
7949s can do is all three members of Team GG
7953s hit him down GG will come out on top
7955s they pick up three eliminations and
7957s unfortunately ntl doesn't find a single
7960s one unfortunate though meanwhile fun
7962s Plus Phoenix kind of doing something
7964s very similar calling out the Bain breath
7965s as well here giving them a little bit of
7967s that advantage here as fun Plus Phoenix
7970s now has that moment to do what they need
7971s to here to decide to back off this as
7974s Lobby 28 is going to successfully pick
7976s up their teammate the question is is it
7977s going to be enough to do what they need
7978s to it's actually sorry it's zobby 28 who
7982s actually had the ban breath forcing fun
7984s Plus Phoenix to actually separate and
7986s get out of Harm's Way giving them that
7988s chance to pick up their teammates do
7990s what they need to and now they have free
7992s rain to back off now it also gives xcg
7995s another incentive here currently as
7996s they're going to be able to go through
7997s the rotations find some stuff spend some
7999s bread get themselves hopefully some
8001s decent Soul jads extra heals and shields
8003s for themselves the more resources you
8005s have on you the better as we're going to
8007s be able to rotate this in here looks
8008s like drg is going to keep their close
8009s eye on 521 as they're rotating this in
8012s looking like some hyenas right now ready
8014s to laugh and potentially eat some good
8016s grubs currently as they got pampy Yin
8018s and aame up ahead here let's see if drg
8022s is going to actually uh continue to be
8024s the watchful eyes of this or if they're
8025s actually going to push in it looks like
8026s they are as it looks like Y is going to
8027s be out there slowly closing this in as
8029s they're going to potentially separate
8031s this from pampy beautiful Parry to close
8033s this down but the resa is going to be
8034s able to do exactly what they need to but
8035s that U Shan is going to do exactly what
8038s was needed and send them out of Harm's
8041s Way oh my goodness look drg like to call
8044s some trouble already off to rip as we
8046s turn back to team 28 here they're going
8048s to pick up an elimination on the Han and
8051s ppy both of them utilizing the fan for
8054s those eliminations here oh my goodness
8056s the third party coming in from xcg we're
8058s to see that Tessa old connect and now
8060s they're going to eat both the Tessa old
8062s and the Viper ultimate here it's just
8064s guaranteed there's no place for these
8066s players to go tanoshi goes down to the
8068s charge right click as they're locked
8070s down in place and Lobby 28 gets sent
8073s back to the soul alter hlg is extremely
8075s low they're going to feel forced to burn
8077s the wuen ultimate unfortunately it
8079s doesn't take them very far and the
8081s members of xcg who started this third
8083s party are back at it again cucko with a
8086s massive double Parry though is able ble
8088s to cleanse the Tessa ultimate his team
8091s comes in the Viper with the F from
8092s behind they are down a member here but
8095s hlg is able to find another elimination
8097s hlg is going for it xcg thought they had
8101s control of this situation but cuckoo
8103s Against All Odds has made it happen for
8105s the team and we see the members of
8108s xcg run away with their tails between
8111s their legs Dobby I wouldn't necessarily
8113s say tail between their legs they only
8115s lost one but they were still holding off
8117s as long as possible to that uan was able
8119s to have enough time to be able to get
8120s them out of there and they did exactly
8121s just that beautiful
8123s time Wen beautiful time beautiful space
8127s beautiful beautiful maintain and still
8129s was able to do exactly what they need to
8131s just to get just to get that finish but
8133s um they still were able to hold strong I
8135s wouldn't necessarily say there's a tail
8136s between the legs they might have been
8137s able to back off here but obviously we
8139s know how xcg plays and with seven
8141s eliminations I doubt they're going to be
8142s leaving that strong meanwhile try hard
8145s beautiful hit onto cxz but looks like
8147s they're going to continue to go right
8148s back towards it oh it's not going to be
8150s enough here as the 1v3 oh but ug comes
8152s through as the third party could be
8154s actually helpful for try hard to be able
8156s to dip out of here and get
8158s away looks like he's still going to be
8160s able to rotate this around here try hard
8162s looks like he's out there by himself
8164s here fighting this out with double s and
8166s it looks like zenu is also going to be
8168s nearby as well here try hard doing
8169s exactly everything that he needs to to
8171s try to maneuver this and and ug's SS is
8173s not letting him get away he's not
8174s letting him wait this out here nice hole
8176s trying to see if they're going to be
8177s able to get the connect but it's not
8178s going to be enough as s is going to
8180s secure the elimination onto try hard
8182s putting that pressure on him making him
8184s sweat secures that elimination and gets
8186s that
8187s win yeah very unfortunate there for ntl
8190s but ug able to secure their first
8193s elimination of the game as we take a
8195s look fun plus Phenix and xcg about to
8197s trade blows here xcg xon just gets
8200s completely obliterated by the MERS of
8202s fun plus Fenix going to be forced to
8204s burn that wuen ult again already almost
8207s his if the second they get it back
8209s online unfortunately they're not able to
8212s get far enough away so they're going to
8213s have to leave xon behind and find a way
8216s to get them back into this Lobby fun
8218s Plus Phoenix here finding two
8220s eliminations early on into game number
8222s two turning her attention over to team
8225s drg these boys want some trouble and
8228s they're going to find it in VC VC coming
8231s in with the Viper ultimate looking to
8233s make things happen already they've got
8235s to find the optimal they do find one St
8238s it's on to sansy unfortunately the team
8241s coming in and covering from drg is going
8243s to make things difficult but the P sword
8245s will come in and clean up a couple of
8247s eliminations for them corki goes down
8249s one WX 98 goes down and
8253s VC finds three eliminations here onto
8258s drg oh my goodness not only with the
8260s stun but absolutely decimates them with
8263s that P sword here I mean he was able to
8265s get a two for in that moment here and
8267s just absolutely Ely ruins their shield
8269s and any left Over Heals they had on them
8273s VC being absolutely dangerous in these
8276s moments here and even with three
8277s eliminations so far to their name I can
8279s definitely see them absolutely popping
8281s off and possibly matching that same
8282s energy that xcg has currently here as
8284s looks like
8285s d229 and the rest of the team trying to
8288s see what else they can potentially take
8290s and maybe Salvage here but it looks like
8291s it's not going to be enough it looks
8292s like the NGC will be protecting that
8294s moment here and making sure that they
8295s don't push in but they got all Grays on
8297s them right now now so they're going to
8299s need to see if they can do some
8300s maneuvering here as it looks like we
8301s look at the top left section here looks
8303s like we have 521 it looks like we have
8305s ggs looks like we have a bain breath
8307s happening too right in the midst of a
8309s loading realm of Yang our very first
8311s realm of Yang for our trios here but
8314s plus Fenix is out by himself as well and
8316s it looks like uh Team 28 so everybody's
8318s realistically split up right now I don't
8319s think there's really too many fights
8321s happening or at least there's anything
8322s that's going to be happening in terms of
8323s fighting happening right now yeah that's
8325s actually a player Bane that's Team 5
8327s 21's ban breath dropping on where that
8329s realm of Yang is looking to come into
8332s and that's what you're seeing 5 to1 do
8333s right now they're looting up while they
8335s have an opportunity they're getting
8336s ready to push in because another team
8338s can't realistically force them off of
8340s that realm of Yang given that there's a
8342s ban breath sitting on top of it at the
8345s moment team GG is sitting nearby and if
8347s they try to take this fight outside of
8349s the realm of Yang they have an
8350s opportunity but they have slipped into
8352s the edge of the Bane here and GG has
8355s completely mispositioned here they're
8357s going to be forced to burn the ultimate
8359s here lxm able to use the te to get the
8361s shove away but team GG will live to
8365s fight another day here as team 521 uses
8368s the wuen ult to teleport out and GG does
8372s not want to chase into the no ult Zone
8374s unfortunately that means both of those
8375s teams will not head into the realm of
8377s Yang so we're going to see fun Plus
8378s Phoenix going head to-head with Team
8382s ug this is going to be a very strong
8384s fight for both teams here ug coming off
8387s of a strong WR win here and fun plus
8388s Fenix want to get a little bit of some
8390s payback here as looks like they're going
8391s to find it as the king is going to be
8393s able to push up onto fun plus Phoenix's
8394s water definitely giving him not much of
8396s an opportunity oh no but he end him
8397s getting caught pops the ulti to go
8399s through the reset here gets hit by some
8401s massive hits though terra cotta Warrior
8403s all the way around the rotation here as
8404s he has to be careful oh and up getting
8406s blitzed on both sides here both of them
8408s getting bullied as the king is caught in
8410s between both and the worst situation you
8412s need to here trying to find one and he
8414s does end up catching the freeze catch
8416s the elimination on the Z EA and now
8419s they're both rotating onto the one last
8421s player here trying to get this one going
8423s here but the Terra Cotta obviously he's
8425s going to be moving around making it a
8426s little bit harder but obviously it's
8428s going to die out and so are their
8430s chances as he's able to do what he needs
8432s to gets the finish and fun Plus Phoenix
8435s gets some
8436s payback very very unfortunate for them
8439s common in there that uan com going to
8442s fall down I bet they're wishing they
8444s took the fair version of that now Dobby
8446s as we turn over to VC inside the realm
8449s of Yang as well going head-to-head here
8451s with the members of drg the rematch
8454s taking place here and unfortunately it's
8456s not fairing any better for drg this time
8459s around as they will end up losing this
8461s realm of Yang and that will be twice
8464s they've been eliminated by VGC in this
8466s Lobby Dobby twice is crazy twice is
8470s crazy at least with fun Plus Phoenix
8472s they're one for
8473s one right at least they can say they
8475s tied like all right you know you lose
8476s some you win some you lose some this is
8478s a 0 to2 situation is definitely tough
8480s especially coming out of the r gang as
8482s VGC coming through and out with their
8484s win six elimination whoa whoa whoa whoa
8486s whoa did v&c take Mystic might in the
8489s first realm of
8493s Yang might be thinking of something
8495s bigger and better long term that's crazy
8501s town why is that crazy town that's crazy
8504s town cuz ver million Birds M's only
8506s available in that first realm of Ying it
8507s gives you the ability to
8509s respawn when somebody eliminates you you
8511s get to keep all of your gear don't get
8514s me wrong Mystic might is great it gives
8516s you the opportunity to kind of go hunt
8518s some other teams down because it kind of
8519s has that sonar BP blip kind of thing
8522s going on you get 25% damage reduction
8525s but you can get that in your second
8527s realm of Yang there's absolutely no
8530s reason you would ever want to leave
8532s Vermillion Birds might behind in the
8534s first realm of Yang the only thing I can
8536s think is Maybe was a misclick or they're
8539s just that confident Toby could be some
8542s very big confidence cuz you can't G
8543s vermillion's bird mine in round two
8545s right no you cannot at all there is a
8548s one that's a onetime deal it's G one or
8552s nothing definitely a lot of confidence
8554s coming through absolutely displaying
8556s that and clearly v&c hopefully is going
8558s to be able to show them that with the
8559s backing of it as VC is going to be able
8561s to push in on him speaking of that Grump
8564s Gump stuck in a worst position here as
8566s tooshi and d229 is got to do a little
8568s bit of some defensive hits as the B
8570s shots from asbun is able to absolutely
8573s hit onto D2 and now he St in a tough
8576s situation nice hits but that finish also
8579s with the heals is able to do a lot as he
8581s ends up getting shredded here by the
8583s mini oh and a beautiful two time Parry
8586s could have been a full team Parry is
8587s well onto that but ason is going to be
8589s able to hit them with the Viper comp
8590s gets the finish off the Alti hits him
8592s with the stun goes through the hits and
8594s gum stuck out not being able to figure
8597s out how he can help his teammates here
8599s and tanoshi is out but loves is not
8602s going to go out without a fight he said
8604s come here boy where are you going
8606s remember the confidence we were talking
8608s about with VC clearly they have it for a
8611s reason man they had such a dominating
8613s game in game one we're here in game two
8616s there tanoshi come on loves come on yeah
8619s yeah okay okay okay okay that's that's
8623s what I'm talking about loves I really
8624s thought you going to check one in
8626s invisibility bush you not the other he's
8628s just over here making sure that our boy
8631s tanoshi was staying on his toes Dobby he
8634s was like Hey you know if you walk past
8636s me I don't know that's crazy obviously
8639s he wasn't able to though nice check just
8641s to be able to see that just to make sure
8642s but meanwhile K definitely in a
8645s different position here was able to
8646s capture another elimination that's their
8648s sixth so far definitely some high
8650s confidence coming in with that 9.5 so
8652s six elimination so far could potentially
8655s get a high score could definitely put
8657s them in a higher round but they're going
8659s to need to catch up to BC and xcg who
8661s rounds up the top slot at 10
8663s eliminations as we look at D team drg
8666s drg still working zero
8669s eliminations they're struggling D I mean
8673s drg's gone out of the lobby twice right
8675s they lose to VC in their first fight
8677s they respawn they head into realm of
8679s Yang they then lose to
8681s v&c in realm of Yang I'm not sure where
8684s they were able to cleanse that Yang
8686s depletion
8688s uh because they certainly didn't pick up
8691s any
8691s eliminations uh so they had to have seen
8695s somebody else stashed some bodies and
8697s would and picked up those Soul blooms
8699s and my guess would be that they picked
8701s up the soul blooms that belonged to team
8704s ug because ug lost two of their members
8707s they were still down to just the king
8709s who had Yang depletion and we just
8711s actually see him go out of the lobby
8712s here unfortunately that's ug gone from
8715s the lobby so it's see if drg can make
8718s that comeback now that they hear a VC
8720s here looks like they just lost somebody
8723s and were able to get the resurrection
8725s back up as that team sends themselves
8728s away here they need to find a full reset
8730s here Roy HEI going to swap into the
8732s white
8733s armor very surprising to see there we go
8736s we're going to do the old armor swaper
8738s roon back here as we head in it's
8740s getting ready to be that time for that
8742s second set of Realm of yangs Dobby looks
8744s like GG posturing here to take this one
8747s for for themselves GG here off to a good
8750s start with five eliminations under the
8751s belt and they're waiting to see if
8753s somebody heads in or not they're going
8755s to see if they can try to slide in for a
8758s freebie but waiting in the wings is
8760s going to be fun Plus
8762s Phoenix why why the question is why
8766s wait why wait to go into the realm of
8769s Yang when once you do that wouldn't you
8770s just immediately want to just go in
8772s regardless to who you're fighting I mean
8774s yes it would be better if you were able
8776s to uh fight somebody that isn't
8778s necessarily um you know you definitely
8780s feel like you could probably um fight
8783s but most of these really good players
8784s are going into these 1 V1 so you're most
8786s likely destined to play a top tier of
8788s team if if you're posted up in a team
8790s comp that doesn't do well in realm of
8792s yang right what you can do is you can
8795s wait to see the portal will flicker when
8797s somebody goes into it you can wait to
8800s see if the portal flickers if you get
8802s down to like the last 10 seconds you can
8805s then go okay I don't think anybody's
8806s going to go wi you go into the realm of
8809s Yang and you're able to get the box for
8811s free Dobby oh so they're waiting for the
8813s freebie exactly got it but you don't
8816s want to go in if you're on a comp that's
8818s not going to excel in the realm of Yang
8821s and take that risk in stage two of the
8824s game obviously smart calls and timing
8827s coming in from these teams trying to get
8830s with the realm of yanger and it looks
8832s like nl's hero is getting chased
8835s by Fun Plus Phoenix and the rest of the
8838s team D Queen ends up catching up to dodo
8841s gets him with the grapple and the hits
8844s looks like he was able to retaliate on
8845s some nice shots here it looks like dun
8847s que is going to try to see if maybe they
8848s can rotate this in and it looks like
8849s there going to be a One V one between
8850s him and dodo he going to find him at
8852s least into this catches him onto the
8854s space nice hits on each side here
8856s waiting for it as he does get absolutely
8857s shredded the burn tick is able to do a
8858s whole lot same thing with that and nowan
8861s trying to see if they can hold strong
8863s here hits the shield on each side here D
8865s trying to push onwards towards hits him
8867s with that Q nice hit from the ulti able
8870s to do a whole lot of damage here dodo
8872s dangerously low was able to try to work
8874s through the slashing but not going to be
8875s enough as he does end up closing the Gap
8877s just a little bit more all he needs is
8878s one quick hit and the ghost is going to
8880s be able to do the rest of the work that
8882s he
8882s couldn't unfortunate for ntl here ever
8886s since the very start of the game they've
8889s been dogged down they've been playing
8890s catchup they've been able to get Revival
8893s after Revival but it's just not enough
8896s when you're this stage of the game your
8898s second set of Realms of Yang and you
8901s just haven't been able to make anything
8903s happen it's
8905s extremely difficult for you to make a
8908s comeback like that as we take a look
8910s here we can see fun Plus Phoenix also
8911s was able to take that realm of Yang for
8913s free I do believe they got that my might
8915s for themselves hero just going to be
8916s caught out by Fun Plus Phoenix as well
8919s and that's all she wrote as ntl is out
8921s of Lobby number two a very unfortunate
8925s turn of events it's been two very
8928s difficult games for our boys from the na
8930s region struggling definitely struggling
8934s here so hopefully maybe they can find
8936s some Synergy once we're finished up with
8938s our game two maybe even our game three
8939s depending on maybe they can come into
8941s this next half absolutely swinging ready
8943s to go which by the way um with those
8946s games you guys will be accompanied by
8947s our amazing casters uh Duncan and Moxy
8950s uh for Games 3 and six so make sure to
8952s stay tuned for that as they'll be able
8953s to absolutely send it off um for the
8956s rest of those games here but back to
8958s game number two so far the display has
8961s been really really good are you
8962s confident still in your team xcg in
8964s getting a dub or do you think somebody
8966s might come in and maybe come through and
8967s swoop it up just like how uh we saw that
8970s last ending elimination swoop coming
8972s through from uh the king look I I think
8975s xcg is in a really good position I think
8978s v&c is as well and I mean if I had to
8980s pick a team based off the current state
8982s of the game my money is actually on VGC
8985s just the level of confidence they've
8987s been playing with this game the way
8988s they've been rotating around the map uh
8991s the the way they've postured up how
8993s they've been able to hunt down some of
8994s these teams quite honestly I think v&c
8997s easily has the opportunity to take this
9000s home the thing is is they are playing
9002s the skirmisher version of this sort of
9005s Viper comp so heading into the final
9007s moments of the game they might struggle
9010s into some of these other teams that have
9012s better end game positioning uh something
9015s like sand siphon might be a little bit
9017s trouble for them and it's going to take
9020s time to really tell how that plays out
9022s but I do think they have the mental
9024s right now and the momentum to carry this
9026s game all the way to the
9029s end a lot of momentum happening here as
9032s it looks like K still going through the
9036s resurrection or at least not the
9038s Resurrection the
9039s rotation trying to see if they can pick
9041s apart something else here we still got
9043s some more times we're going to get ready
9044s for another
9045s one inside a Circle drg's core key is
9048s going to be nearby as well
9050s here they're going to be on the
9054s inside zone three is crucially
9056s collapsing down onto zone four which
9058s means we're going to have that first
9059s Morris blessing coming through ladies
9060s and gentlemen that has that set of gold
9063s armor and for a lot of these teams that
9066s scaling is going to be absolutely
9069s crucial so we're going to start to see
9070s these teams posture up and look to make
9072s a play either so that they can pick up
9075s that equipment where they can grief some
9077s these other teams out who are
9078s desperately trying to make that happen
9080s as we turn to take a look here at Team
9082s GG this is the team who decided not to
9085s go into that realm of Yang they're
9087s currently running that sand siphon comp
9090s they desperately are going to want to
9092s make something happen here for
9094s themselves they don't have a ton of
9096s eliminations right now they have five
9097s eliminations under their belt they're
9098s off to a decent start but end game is
9101s where they're really going to be looking
9102s to pop off as we take a look here at K
9105s KLA in a very similar situation six
9107s eliminations to themselves they've been
9109s able to win two fights thus far and are
9111s just trying to make it to that late game
9114s stage here on this sort of uh
9116s skirmishing version of this Viper comp
9119s we've got two Valiant challenges up
9121s right now as well meaning those players
9123s of course have picked up kind of the
9125s reverse Bounty and they are going
9126s looking to make those dark tide points
9129s because heading into late game resources
9132s are so crucial for any of these teams
9136s resources look at what happens
9138s immediately when you bring up resources
9139s look what happens a big old chest comes
9141s out of the ground starts conforming
9143s through the sand a whole siphon happens
9146s and now all of a sudden they're
9147s protecting it to get the nice loot
9148s hopefully some gold and yes it is and
9150s some gold numchucks on top of that it's
9152s crazy how well resources can come at the
9154s best time it's like old 80s television
9156s shows the family ones you know with the
9158s large families it's crazy anyway back
9160s into it as we're going to be able to
9160s look into it X lxm and the rest of the
9163s team definitely feeling this out like
9165s you said five eliminations now they have
9167s a gold shield now they have gold
9168s numchucks now they have a little bit
9170s more of an advantage they know how this
9172s map is this is a very out worldly map
9176s look at the details so far but on top of
9178s this here even with the timing they got
9180s to be able to hit their shots and know
9181s their timing this is where things start
9183s to get a little bit more hectic in some
9185s way obviously when it comes to the
9186s smaller circles they will be able to
9188s push out on this as well but it looks
9189s like ason looks like he was ready to
9192s push onwards here you better be careful
9193s sir there is a full team in front of you
9195s you do not want to get in that situation
9197s you better be
9198s careful look VC posturing here playing
9201s aggressive they want to push drg off of
9204s that box they want to potentially come
9205s in and do some chopping themselves but
9207s drg is very happy with their current
9210s position and how well they're able to
9212s hold this I do believe this is one of
9213s those teams that had picked up that
9215s Valiant challenge so they have a little
9217s bit of extra money to spend here and you
9219s can see they've been doing some soul
9221s Jade rolling here they're trying to prep
9223s for that late game unfortunately if you
9226s take a look here toada they haven't been
9228s able to scale up on the gear enough for
9230s him to have that golden version of the
9232s ultimate so he's going to be missing out
9234s on that extra push from the furin so
9237s they need to find some of that gear to
9239s help scale him all the way Dobby
9243s definitely going to be a little bit
9244s tougher if they can't necessarily find
9246s it but we'll see what happens here still
9249s have more time and more opportunities
9250s here to make that happen here as xcg
9253s still at the top of the leaderboard here
9255s the NGC right behind him though with
9257s those nine
9258s eliminations definitely going to be
9260s interesting to see how they can run this
9261s out towards the end here 330 just
9264s looking around xcg just kind of playing
9266s ring
9268s around let's see if any of the other
9270s teams are going to maybe see if they can
9271s move maneuver towards this as well all
9273s teams are still alive here so I'm
9275s curious with everything that we've seen
9278s so far they've been trying to play this
9279s out a little bit better VGC potentially
9281s pushing this in and it looks like he is
9283s as he is able to get a nice hit though
9284s whoin gets absolutely destroyed in the
9286s seconds here by the P SW trying to time
9288s this out but also here comes that
9290s Dreadful whale coming through being a
9293s problem for VC as they start to bounce
9295s out and balance off that Rin able to
9298s take them out doing a great job
9301s placement
9302s Dobby oh man where he was able to get
9305s that wo Chanel to the like the
9307s pre-planning of that engagement right
9310s how do you even pre-plan that well look
9313s they postured up to potentially push drg
9315s up off right and then we saw ason back
9318s away clearly they made Cals they went
9321s hey let's pre-plan this engagement they
9323s backed away they allowed their wuen to
9325s set up such a clean position for them to
9328s Ultimate back to in case things turned
9332s sideways then they pressed the
9334s engagement onto drg they were able to
9336s separate woan they were almost able to
9338s pick up that elimination then we got the
9341s Dreadful whale from the top rope they
9343s immediately just pushed the o button if
9346s you will in that wuen ultimate
9348s teleported back out but that location
9351s there's no way anyone could have known
9353s that they location look at them up top
9357s oh yeah they're just big chilling right
9358s now big chilling up top this is a much
9361s higher from war fun Plus Phoenix is
9362s currently here inside of the circle and
9365s where the rotation space is as circle is
9368s slowly going to start to form and close
9370s in as the ulti comes out from xan here
9373s definitely a tough starter and an opener
9376s for that ulti here might have
9377s potentially wasted it as they do end up
9379s getting hit lxm it gets absolutely
9382s destroyed by
9383s Bose nowhere to go tough placement to do
9386s what he needs to Z has to be able to
9387s retreat this out and away from the Viper
9389s ulti meanwhile it's going to be the same
9391s thing as both of them end up getting
9392s caught a Comm in a tough situation as
9395s CXC is able to capture the elimination
9397s and get the Finish same thing with
9400s rosemary and able to get the finish on
9402s to 52 once again beautiful Ed ulti here
9405s for that moment gets two free
9407s eliminations out of it now CXC is
9409s getting chased here but those hits from
9411s those bows is absolutely devastating to
9414s some of these teams right now and pampy
9416s is on the wrong side of those bows
9417s currently just trying to get out of
9419s Harm's Way here meanwhile cannon shots
9421s ricocheting all the way up top pami
9423s getting absolutely destroyed here needs
9425s a free time no gets hit off the back
9428s with another bow shot to get the
9430s finished and just like that he's
9431s struggling to get out of here as Han
9434s trying to see if they can close in this
9435s Gap just a little bit more here trying
9436s to find it as the WAN is going to be
9437s able to take them out in a better
9439s position maybe but that bow shot Whoever
9441s has that bow they're doing work right
9443s now oh absolutely Han here just trying
9446s to just stay as small as possible
9449s doesn't want to be seen unfortunately
9451s here xcg loses one of their members
9454s we're going to see xcg lose another as
9457s xiaon goes down to drg's woan in the
9460s kill feed there off of the Dual halberts
9462s xcg with a single player left remaining
9464s alive Han still just holding that
9466s position in the corner there but B shots
9468s ringing out are going to force Han out
9470s of the corner drg sansy going to get
9472s locked down in the middle as lxm uh from
9474s Team GG picks up the elimination with a
9477s Canon we're going to see msia go in top
9479s side here looking to find something will
9480s get caught out in a whisp thankfully the
9482s followup doesn't come through so msia
9484s takes negligible damage there from being
9487s locked down in the wh fun plus Fenix is
9489s D Queen coming in with a little bit of
9491s the barbecue there but not able to find
9492s the followup Han still fighting for dear
9495s life over here stuck in the corner but
9496s now stuck in a 1 V one with a member of
9499s xcg drg able to come back in and pick
9502s sansy up here but there's another player
9504s in the mix here we do see the de coming
9507s in the furin invested here woin goes so
9510s low he's trying to get there he is able
9512s to get a little bit of the Soul Bloom
9514s but it's not enough msia comes in and
9516s picks up the elimination GG going
9518s absolutely off fun Plus Phoenix starting
9520s to pick it up as they pick up an
9521s elimination onto asban from VGC and
9524s unfortunately that's going to be VG GC
9526s out of the lobby here ladies and
9528s gentlemen GG with 12 eliminations fun
9530s Plus Phoenix with 12 eliminations GG and
9533s fun Plus Phoenix take control of the
9534s lobby it looks like we found out where
9536s that bow is coming from it looks like
9537s that's going to be from the hands of 330
9539s here doesn't have his bul but he does
9541s have a bow and he's got a powerful one
9543s at that as he's been getting some
9544s absolute hits putting their team in 13
9547s eliminations into this game here
9549s obviously the siphon starts to come out
9551s from the tul on both sides here both
9553s with the counters absolutely coming
9554s through shredding as much of it as
9556s possible ends up hitting nice little
9557s bits of nat but 330 is also going to get
9559s eliminated from Team GG and the same
9561s thing with lxm counting their look out
9564s one by one D swing trying to lead the
9566s game 14 eliminations for the man himself
9569s he's able to put it down gets the 15 fun
9571s Plus Phoenix ladies and gentlemen is
9573s going to be your game two winners the
9575s shutdown the Synergy they knew what to
9578s do m is going to get that second place
9580s though with those 13 eliminations
9582s getting a nice second place finish to
9583s him plays it well but it doesn't matter
9585s because fun Plus Phoenix is going to
9587s show you how fun they really are and how
9590s they get it done ladies and gentlemen
9592s fun Plus Phoenix and like a phoenix they
9595s Rise From the Ashes of game number one
9597s to come back into game number two and
9599s show us why you can never count fun Plus
9603s Phoenix out regardless because these
9606s boys were on fire Dobby that was a
9609s shutdown and a half that was entirely
9611s impressive they saw their opportunity
9613s come through and the moment they got rid
9615s of 330 in that B they knew who was the
9617s culprit once they got him out it was it
9619s was wide open wide range of just
9622s absolute destruction that they were able
9624s to put on it everywhere else Dobby I'm
9626s feeling it I'm I'm feeling the heat over
9629s here you feeling it yeah absolutely yeah
9631s fun Plus Phoenix coming in like we said
9634s cleaning up that final Circle there and
9637s this was a hard one too you know we we
9640s talked about it a lot of these teams
9641s playing that Viper comp and it's just
9643s going to be kind of Viper old traded for
9645s Viper ho right but fun Plus Phoenix in
9647s that unique position they're playing the
9648s sand siphon they're able to really
9650s utilize that toada and that furin coming
9654s in being able to clean up elimination
9657s after elimination amidst the chaos
9659s they're able to just Skyrocket to the
9662s top of the lobby and take control of
9664s everything definitely was a good call
9666s there to make in these situations here
9668s they really held on for as long as
9671s possible here uh definitely have to give
9673s it up to them as well drg just trying to
9675s hold on for as long as humidly possible
9676s ends up taking that second place because
9679s he held on longer than the team I
9681s actually thought was actually going to
9683s be able to do it but no corki at the
9685s very end of that was able to hold on and
9686s just hide away just so they can get that
9689s second place placement so those three
9690s elimination so that those three
9692s placement points are going to be very
9693s very very helpful as we're going to be
9695s able to rock this in but bu Plus Phoenix
9697s absolutely dials it in beautiful
9700s absolute finish and man even with
9703s everything that's going on here they did
9704s a fantastic job job not only with that
9707s shut down here but I got to give it up
9709s to GG's 330 man that bow he was
9712s absolutely w why why why he had
9716s everybody scramble he's like where's the
9717s bow coming from everybody was scared you
9720s can tell everybody scattered the moment
9722s you saw the b w w w so that made
9726s everybody start to cause some problems
9728s but of course it comes from the hands of
9729s 330 oh yeah look I mean 330 is no
9733s stranger to throw in hands much less
9735s throw in bows it's kind of the same
9737s thing when you're shooting across the
9738s map there and he makes it look clean
9741s take a look at this these players
9742s heading off to take a very short break
9745s here before they come back and lock in
9747s for game number three and man if I'm fun
9750s Plus Phoenix I'm super happy about my
9752s performance in that game but I still got
9754s to give it up to xcg and VC xcg keeping
9758s the consistency on board I mean they
9760s came into that final Circle they were in
9762s the lead they pick up a couple of
9764s eliminations they go out in like fourth
9767s or fifth place but still a very strong
9770s game for them points wise VGC they came
9772s into that final Circle nine eliminations
9774s they pick up a couple more eliminations
9776s Unfortunately they go out but given how
9778s strong of a performance they had in game
9780s one this is not a bad game for them
9783s whatsoever and you've got to remember
9785s the first two days here are all about
9788s qualifying you just need to be in the
9790s top 12 at the very end of it so being in
9793s second place being in third place great
9796s positions to be in right now absolutely
9799s especially as a trail team with the
9800s amount of points that they had there was
9802s at least four teams that had over those
9804s 10 eliminations and absolutely
9806s decimating we were getting if if if this
9808s would have been another Circle we would
9810s have been hitting 20s we would have been
9812s hit I would have said confidently we
9814s would have been hitting 20s with the way
9815s they've been absolutely dumpstering the
9818s rest of this Lobby and absolutely
9819s putting everybody on their toes you know
9822s what I love to see this too right fun
9823s Plus Phoenix this is a team we talk
9825s about all the time where they really
9827s excel at is closing out games they are
9831s able to identify what the win condition
9834s of final circles are able to position
9837s themselves into that critical position
9841s so that they can utilize it to find that
9843s win condition and because of that they
9846s take control of lobbies leading into
9849s those final moments we weren't talking
9851s about fun Plus Phoenix at all and then
9853s all of a sudden when the chaos breaks
9855s off we turn to them they're in that
9858s critical position they're able to
9860s utilize it and it's just like kill after
9862s kill after kill
9864s starts uses that Advantage starts to
9867s absolutely not only take advantage of
9869s the moments where people are actually
9870s stuck on stunned but at least two
9872s players kind of do like the whole like
9874s you go this way I go that way and they
9876s turn this way and just start put
9878s throwing off hands and just like that
9880s they're able to see that Synergy they're
9882s able to notice their targets lock on get
9884s those picks and then it just starts to
9886s become a problem for everyone else as we
9887s look back at it
9889s 29.2 points for fun Plus Phoenix 18
9892s eliminations and obviously that
9894s fourpoint ranking point is going to be
9896s oh so sweet to their final score as GG
9898s is going to collect those two ranking
9899s points with a solid 13 eliminations and
9902s 18.9 but rounding out the top three
9905s first place games winner xcg with a 14.7
9908s that 1.5 and 11
9911s eliminations oh yeah absolutely we can't
9914s count out v&c with the nine
9917s eliminations I thought they did 10
9918s eliminations they were one off I thought
9920s they had 10 eliminations but KLA with
9922s another eight eliminations in that
9924s fourth place and 11.9 these double digit
9926s games very good for themselves
9929s Unfortunately drg they go out in second
9932s place but they only have one elimination
9935s for this game so that multiplier not
9936s going to be doing them any favors as we
9939s take a look here you are here is your
9941s MVP for game number two of course our
9943s boys from fun plus
9946s Phoenix definitely uh can tell who's
9948s going to be the MVP of this game that's
9950s all I'm going to say it's a little it's
9952s a little telling that's all I'm going to
9953s say as oh who do you think it's going to
9954s be I I you know I think water I think
9956s water that definitely has very you water
9959s I'm I'm looking at xiaoi are you really
9962s look at eight eliminations 13,000 damage
9965s six assists coming through I mean I
9966s don't know about that he had eight you
9968s know you know he had 8,000 healing you
9970s know what I'm saying like they 8K
9971s healing is not easy you know on top of
9973s everything else as we look back at it
9974s for the overall score here definitely a
9976s struggle for the bottom three here as
9979s they're rarely getting they're getting a
9980s lot of zeros here um Lobby 28 was
9983s finally able to to pick up the pace at
9985s least get out of that zero category and
9987s at least get to the two score but ntl
9989s and IDC is just absolutely struggling to
9991s get some of these picks and trying to
9993s figure out what they need to do to lock
9994s it in but if we go up a little bit
9996s higher it immediately Stacks up to those
9998s 14 points and obviously are we surprised
10000s to see who's in first place right now
10002s xcg with a 39.6 but let's not count on
10004s fun Plus Phoenix who absolutely had a
10006s very short game in their game number one
10009s but absolutely had the massive
10011s Redemption to put them in second place
10013s with a 31.9 yeah absolutely v&c rounding
10016s out in third place with a 26.8 as well
10019s these top three teams huge contenders
10022s coming in and you know what I've got to
10025s give it right now fun Plus Phoenix is
10027s doing what fun Plus Phoenix does right
10029s they have one or two really huge
10031s explosive games and then their other
10034s games are kind of very scoring they're
10036s kind of an All or Nothing team if that
10037s makes sense xcg keeping the consistency
10040s up and B&C just staying a dominant team
10043s from start to finish taking a look here
10045s this is where cuckoo absolutely pops off
10047s he literally forces the entirety of xcg
10050s to just back away from this xcg thought
10053s they had easy eliminations there and off
10055s the back of cuckoo's performance they
10057s were forced to burn multiple ultimates
10059s K's cxz here able to avoid that other
10062s stun get theirs off here being huge for
10065s them there into that fight with IDC now
10067s taking a look cxd here KLA on the
10070s backside of a fight with ug this is a
10072s fight we didn't get to see this is a
10074s straight replay here huge coming in from
10077s the members of K here being able to turn
10079s that back around onto the uon team as we
10082s take a look here this is just Mis sit
10084s top there's 330 with the bow Toby there
10087s it is with that bow I'm telling you 330
10089s was a problem had everybody absolutely
10092s shaken and msgia was still able to find
10094s their way here goes that final Circle
10096s that we were talking about here
10097s absolutely dialing them in one by one
10100s putting up those problems and putting up
10102s that massive amount of hits here wait a
10106s minute can I call him or can I call him
10108s ladies and gentlemen fun plus Phoenix's
10110s MVP here for game number two is going to
10113s be
10114s xia oh my goodness 13,000 damage eight
10117s eliminations six assists with the
10120s dragonik Mike Prides fall benic descent
10123s dual wield weapon sap group heal
10125s the Venom tipped and the barbed bolts
10128s Dobby I'm I'm a little shocked I'm be
10131s honest I definitely definitely am a
10133s little shocked by that what a pick what
10134s a pick nice job nice job what a pick I
10137s was even I was surprised by that one I
10138s was like wait huh I was just playing
10140s with my pick we all know who was the
10142s real MVP that's okay you know what Z you
10145s know what he deserve it absolutely with
10146s the rest of the team and with the rest
10148s of the team in terms of the fun Plus
10149s Phoenix they absolutely deserve can't
10151s complain in that situation there but
10152s what I can't complain
10154s about everybody that was scattering cuz
10156s that was funny as heck to watch that's
10157s all I'm going to say everybody was
10158s scattering not trying to get caught up
10159s by that Venom tip and that bow shot cuz
10161s that bow shot was hitting everybody and
10162s that actually got GG a lot of
10164s eliminations that put together a lot of
10166s eliminations to get them those those
10168s double digits in general by the time
10169s they got eliminated they hit that 13
10171s points they did exactly what they needed
10172s to look I mean GG did a really good job
10175s but unfortunately they just couldn't
10177s clutch out those final the final Circle
10180s I mean and again fun Plus Phoenix they
10181s just took a dominant position there in
10184s the end there they were able to use that
10186s furin to shove multiple players into the
10188s Zone pick up multiple eliminations time
10190s and time again and then Xiao a there
10193s with the clean ultimate every time we
10194s saw him catch a whisp out he just
10196s immediately would swap to that repeating
10198s crossbow and it was all head shot all
10200s day and when you've got Venom tip in the
10202s back pocket as well it's devastating
10205s Dobby it's absolutely devastating and
10207s it's a massive problem but definitely
10209s was the the play so far from those
10212s replays especially when it came to fun
10215s Plus Phoenix now we're about to head out
10217s head back to Morris Isle and knock it
10220s out for our game number three but before

10546s Shanghai is so gorgeous isn't it I mean
10549s no place I'd rather be right now d h
10552s absolutely no place I'd rather be with
10554s my fellow amazing casters about to get
10556s ready to lock in for our game number
10558s three and so far our two games has been
10560s an absolute treat for not only for us to
10562s be able to cast but hopefully for you
10564s guys watching at home these games have
10565s been explosive they've been high and so
10568s far xcg has brought the consistency that
10573s we talk about consistently all the time
10577s clearly we see that but let's not count
10579s out fun Plus Phoenix who popped off and
10581s match that same energy in our game
10583s number two the question is for myself
10586s that's definitely for me and you
10587s technically can
10589s vgnc bring the same energy in this game
10593s three and close out this half look v&c
10596s definitely going to bring that same
10597s energy would love to see them do I they
10600s don't come they don't come here to do no
10601s half play measures you know what I'm ium
10604s that never assume that you never assume
10606s that I'm just saying that I want a
10608s well-rounded first three and I would
10610s love to see the this is my call I've
10612s calling it VGC takes this game oh yeah
10615s absolutely as close as they've come the
10617s last two games they're going to be
10618s hungry coming into game number three my
10620s boy Roy he he doesn't like to sit on the
10622s sidelines but speaking of not sitting on
10624s the sidelines make sure you head on over
10626s to the website or through the client and
10628s answer this question which of the
10629s following two teams do you think will
10631s achieve the highest survival rank in
10633s this match is it going to be ug or drg
10636s you definitely don't want to miss out on
10638s this because if you get these
10640s predictions right there's a chance for
10642s you to get all sorts of in-game goodies
10644s including the very limited jcup twitch
10648s or sorry the jcup banner spear skin
10652s which last year I think only 15 people
10655s got wow it was that limited it was that
10658s limited so this is your opportunity to
10660s walk away with that and speaking I'm
10663s going to be honest with that
10664s questionnaire my money is going to be on
10665s ug not because they both were able to
10669s successfully hold strong but ug was able
10672s to survive just a little while longer
10675s when it came to that ending now
10677s obviously drg was able to
10679s somehow live out of nowhere by
10682s themselves but I'm going to give it to
10684s OU on this one to be honest with you if
10685s I were to answer that question so I'm
10687s going to I'm going to pick drg I'm going
10688s I'm I'm of you are look here we go look
10690s I'm going to play devil's advocate here
10692s okay that's fine cuz I do it all the
10693s time so I understand I do it all the
10695s time look look drg comes in as a team
10698s and they're very very interesting to
10701s watch but they always have something a
10703s little hidden up their sleeves and right
10706s now what I think we're seeing out of drg
10708s is something we've seen time and time
10709s again drg likes to kind of play it low
10711s and slow from the beginning and ramp
10713s things up throughout the day so now that
10716s we're heading into that game three the
10717s game before we head into the second half
10720s I expect to see that ramp up start to
10722s come out just a little bit this is is a
10724s team that knows these first 12 games
10727s across their first two days to
10730s compete these are not that big of a deal
10733s for them as long as they're in the top
10735s 12 at the end of this points reset
10737s before we head to Grand finals Dobby so
10740s for them they know they can afford to
10743s kind of lower that energy just a little
10745s bit as long as once they qualify and
10748s they come into that second half that's
10750s when they bring the
10752s heat definitely going to be inter to see
10754s if they bring the heat either after or
10757s before this but so far down at the
10760s bottom try hard our one of our na teams
10762s here absolutely struggling ntl with ski
10766s hero and
10767s tryhard they have definitely been having
10769s a tough time so far what do they need to
10771s do I mean
10773s look look these guys just need to lock
10776s in they need to start moving together
10778s they need to start playing like a team
10781s same with IDC what do they need to do
10783s similar ID see there's been a couple of
10786s just uh regular General player errors
10788s from what I've seen we we actually
10791s watched in that last game they get
10793s eliminated the version of the Viper old
10795s that they're running is the longer
10797s version the other Viper team comes in
10800s they pop their ult a little too soon
10802s they give the read they allow the other
10804s Viper to be able to stun them out they
10806s get no value out of their ultimate and
10808s get eliminated because of that that read
10810s cost them that entire match Dobby
10813s absolutely abolutely unfortunate here as
10815s team Synergy is definitely going to be
10817s the homework for ntl and IDC timing is
10821s going to be very important for IDC but
10823s let's see if the hero picks are going to
10824s switch up at all in this game number
10826s three R take it away going to be very
10828s interesting immediately taking a look
10829s here at Team KLA they're going to be
10831s running that Viper comp but they're
10832s going to be running the classic version
10834s with Yodo Heime and it's starting to be
10836s a Telltale sign whether teams are
10838s planning to run that version of the uan
10841s comp we've talked about before because
10843s if you're a team like team K who's
10845s running yohime here it means you clearly
10848s have no intention of running the new uan
10850s comp that we've talked so much about and
10852s that we've seen a few times today
10855s because you're running the Yodo here
10858s instead of inside that comp so K playing
10861s their hand just a little bit here you
10862s can see the difference every one of
10864s these other teams are running the Tessa
10867s over the Yodo heate no fun Plus Phoenix
10869s actually is also going to be running the
10871s classic Yoda he com so clear
10874s some of these teams are favoring the
10877s power of Yodo Heime in that comp rather
10879s than having the ability the flex ability
10883s to run that other uan comp this is a
10886s decent spread here coming in from IDC
10888s and GG that's going to be heading
10889s basically towards the south side of the
10892s ruins here as we look at it it looks
10894s like the NGC is going to have that
10895s entire uh shipwreck expanse all to them
10898s cells meanwhile 521 HG ug 521 and 28
10903s even xcg is going to be on that far left
10905s section here nobody in zest Winery
10908s nobody in any of those small little huts
10909s and it looks like UI and it looks like I
10912s can't tell who that last that last play
10914s team is going to be but they're going to
10915s be in the far left section here so
10917s certain teams are definitely a lot more
10919s widespread still going to be some fastp
10921s action immediately here as IDC Z
10923s immediately is going to have to fight
10924s this out here with a team GG definitely
10927s a tough layer to fight knowing GG
10929s definitely had a lot of confidence
10930s coming in from that game three but
10932s meanwhile IDC just needs to get a decent
10934s elimination here and they decide to get
10937s to let that go and give them the chance
10939s as they're going to actually be able to
10940s get a little bit of some heals a little
10941s bit of some Shields but it doesn't
10942s matter though as GG is going to push
10943s into this they're going to use that
10944s opportunity to do what they need to
10946s beautiful Parry to get the shut down
10948s here absolutely trying to Grace it
10949s together they're throwing him around
10951s like a tennis ball z has nothing nowhere
10953s to go nothing to do nothing to put
10955s together here and he's struggling to
10957s keep the game alive for himself here
10959s meanwhile the double Parry coming in
10961s from E shutting down l them giving him
10965s the opportunity maybe for them to keep
10966s this game alive for themselves it's
10967s still a 2v3 situation they still have
10969s lost the player here beautiful Perry
10971s coming in from bandoro as they're still
10973s walking through it 330 ends up getting
10975s juggled here this is crazy with the
10978s return as lxm is going to claim that
10980s next elimination gets the finish and
10982s just like that there was an
10985s opportunity for them to potentially
10988s close that out they could have actually
10989s shut down GG that was very surprising
10992s for those split seconds those par the
10994s defense they were reading that so well
10997s but it just wasn't enough look it's
11000s really hard to come back from that
11001s player deficit like you said though
11002s those Parry absolutely huge they really
11004s do try to come back from it speaking of
11006s a team we were just talking about before
11008s the start of this the VGC already off to
11011s a great start here they've got a team
11013s completely separated they're on the hunt
11015s here cxz extremely low Roy he are on the
11019s hunt looking to pick up this elimination
11022s while he lets the rest of his team clear
11024s things up here there it is cxz going to
11026s be grappled down here no place to go Roy
11029s will pick up that elimination and now K
11032s down to just a single member left
11033s remaining alive they will Port the wuen
11035s ultimate they're able to get Rosemary
11037s out but they're not able to get the
11038s other player unfortunately as Bon gets
11041s caught out solo here inside of a UA or
11045s sorry inside of a Tami ult and the
11047s Baines breath dropped down by ug so v&c
11050s going to be down a player
11051s Dobby could be a potential in at least
11053s getting that player up as we're able to
11056s see exactly what happens here as they do
11057s find K on the very bottom as well here
11060s throws out the F3 uh for it as Rosemary
11062s is going to absolutely eat it from ug
11065s keeping that same pressure here there
11067s could be a moment here as they do be
11068s able to rotate this around as K is going
11070s to absolutely dip out and that gives ug
11072s the chance to absolutely Chase but that
11074s also gives VC hopefully a chance to go
11077s in and pick up their teammate as it
11078s looks like they will be open and should
11080s be free in that moment here we're going
11081s to go back and it looks like SS and the
11083s rest of the team might potentially back
11085s off this and let him get out of Harm's
11087s Way yeah it looks like ug wants to head
11090s back and take all of this loot from
11092s shipwreck they've been able to evict
11093s every other team there which means
11095s there's plenty of loot Left Behind
11097s especially on those bodies that nobody
11098s was able to pick through so if VC hasn't
11101s already gotten that resurrection and
11102s gotten out of there it could spell
11104s disaster for them as we take a look at
11106s Team five 2 one here who already has
11109s lost their resurrections and are going
11111s to find themselves looking for a way to
11113s get back back into this game we turn our
11115s attention now to Team
11117s ntl having a much easier start this game
11120s the last couple of games ntl has hot
11122s dropped and those fights have not gone
11124s well for him this time they have opted
11126s to spawn a little to the side away from
11128s everybody else and it looks like they're
11130s already doing some shopping finding some
11132s legendary Soul Jades and making a little
11134s bit of Headway in terms of gearing up
11137s for this game here they are of course
11139s playing that more traditional
11140s Transformers comp so scaling their way
11143s through this game is going to be very
11145s important for them
11147s Dobby scaling potentially being a big
11149s factor here zg sansy going for the
11152s repair
11154s on on the fan still going to be able to
11157s go through with this rotation here but U
11159s certain off strong with five
11160s eliminations that
11162s 25.5 looking really good for the overall
11164s points here so let's see if maybe they
11166s can use that as a massive opportunity to
11168s really piap this up and keep this going
11170s here as we are going to see be able to
11172s see this rotation start to come through
11173s I would love to also see ug get it du
11176s today I mean absolutely ug is such a
11179s great team and we do love to see them
11182s perform well and they're off to a great
11184s start here in game number three with
11185s those five eliminations like you
11187s mentioned Dobby xcg just outside here uh
11191s looking to come through this area see if
11192s there's anything left there's a shop
11194s available they are going to finish a
11195s quest so clearly looking to roll for
11198s some of those Soul Jades and other
11199s resources that they need as a team here
11201s Lobby 28 this is a team that's been
11203s struggling all day as well they're able
11206s to find some crucial gear upgrades but
11208s they are sitting on Blue's Dobby while
11211s many of these other teams are already on
11213s purples sliding in to do a little bit of
11215s shopping the money the dark tide coins
11217s running a little slim for these guys
11219s realistically as we turn now our
11221s attention to One Plus Phoenix the team
11224s who absolutely dominated the end game of
11227s game number two moving just out here it
11230s looks like there's a bounty nearby and
11233s they are going to head in that direction
11235s and see who it is that they have that
11237s Bounty picked up on because here in
11240s competitive it will show you that you
11242s have a bounty it's not going to tell you
11243s who it's on absolutely and it looks like
11246s they're going to have to go through the
11247s hunt if they're going to uh get that
11249s reward as well here as we're looking at
11251s K
11252s here inside of another section here is
11255s Rosemary cxz and the U looks like U is
11259s able to find himself a purple shield and
11260s now Rosemary and cxt has got to be able
11262s to do the same here
11265s tries to call the Bell out seeing if
11267s maybe there's going to be some players
11268s nearby here definitely a little bit more
11269s of a slower paced game for sure in these
11271s In This Moment here even in this even in
11273s this moment there should be some B
11274s weight actually oh I take it back as fun
11276s Plus Phoenix immediately gets grappled
11278s dun Ken finds a player onto the back
11281s stretch Here and Now D Queen is now
11283s getting chased Rosemary trying to see if
11286s they can close in this Gap here nice
11287s hits but obviously that massive tree is
11289s going to be able to shut them down and
11290s now the ulti comes through might be able
11292s to rotate this nice dodging just to try
11294s to get away from this Rosemary does not
11296s get caught by the UL but it does get
11297s caught by zahu who zaho is going to
11299s absolutely put in so much pressure
11301s pressures them it looks like the Perry
11303s also collects as well as he's able to
11304s get the elimination and now Yin comes
11306s through and drops down with the
11307s beautiful timing the question is does
11309s that timing work yes it does dun Queen
11313s and you end up getting hit by a massive
11315s double Viper drop on each side here both
11317s teams trying to scramble nice slam
11319s coming through from the P sword trying
11320s to see if they can Ricochet this around
11322s and Yin has to be able to do nothing
11323s else but Retreat and maybe go for some
11325s Heroes as Don Quinn fighting for his
11327s life and it's not going to be enough
11328s here as they do end up catching that
11330s elimination and gets the Finish 521 aame
11332s able to do what they can and just like
11334s that they're able to hit the
11334s disappearing act hit the woen take them
11336s out and KLA picks up their teammate and
11338s they're still in the game 5 to1 finally
11341s able to come in and find some aggression
11344s after struggling all day long and this
11347s is what I was talking about Dobby if
11348s they can force the lobby to play at
11350s their speed they're going to find a lot
11351s of success they haven't been able to
11353s that till now so here we are look at
11355s this immediately after taking a fight
11357s they're back into it they follow up to a
11359s no old Zone where they're them not
11361s having ult is going to be no
11363s disadvantage to but K is waiting for it
11366s U unfortunately goes extremely low it is
11368s currently a 2v2 situation and cxz is
11373s trying to clutch it up for the members
11375s of K here U's been able to back off and
11378s get a little bit of a heal here but 521
11380s has that ultimate they're able to move
11382s on the outside and immed immediately
11383s aame comes in and starts applying
11386s pressure back onto K they see the wind
11389s walls come down and decide to back away
11391s and not overcommit as we now turn to hlg
11396s who's lost cuckoo and is going
11398s head-to-head with the remaining members
11399s of Team GG here there's no real place
11401s for hlg to go they're down to just a
11404s single member Han clutching it out
11406s trying to just make something happen
11408s from inside the corner here but he gets
11410s sent flying and the members of Team GG
11413s keep the hunt up Han just wants to keep
11415s the game alive for hlg but he's not
11417s going to be able to as the members of GG
11419s clean it up we head into the realm of
11421s Yang real of rang which features ntl and
11425s VC definitely two Polar Opposites in
11428s this game so far here as VC has
11429s absolutely been dominating this Lobby
11431s can't say the rest for ntl here but try
11434s hard is going to do exactly what he can
11435s to see he's ended up gets one grab with
11437s and grabs Roy he this could be the
11440s switch and the swap in terms of what
11442s they needed absolute bully tick to be
11444s able to find it as he pops the ulti gets
11446s the grab tries to see if maybe he can
11448s grab a second goes for the throw down
11450s Roy HEI absolutely backing this off
11453s trying to keep the game alive the heals
11455s is able to keep him from going that
11457s terra cotta Warrior able to keep a
11459s decent amount of damage onto Roy HEI
11461s let's see if they can keep that same
11463s energy all the way around but the heals
11465s coming through keeping the game alive
11466s and so does the ghost absolutely able to
11469s work through it as well here both
11470s holding down for as long as possible
11472s here try hard the beautiful Parry gets a
11474s shut down on the Roy he now loves
11478s absolutely juggling try hard here in
11480s this moment in this situation here
11481s waiting for the time piece waiting for
11483s the charge but it's not enough as LS was
11485s able to find the space captures them on
11488s this next side here hero gets eliminated
11490s here TR hard holding on for as long as
11492s possible but it might not be enough as
11494s loves ends up getting eliminated here
11496s it's now a 2V1 situation here this could
11499s be huge ntl might get a massive Dub here
11501s if they can keep this game alive but
11503s Aspen if he ends up getting both of
11504s these eliminated this could be
11506s absolutely huge for his team but it's
11507s not going to be enough as ntl is able to
11510s shut down VC in the realm of Yang let's
11514s go ntl is they going to finally find
11517s some feet under themselves here in game
11519s number three Dobby and it looks like
11522s they're more than happy to put their
11524s boots on the neck of v&c inside that
11526s realm of Yang and finally step into this
11529s game ug here on the outskirts coming out
11532s it looks like they may have not won the
11534s realm of Yang but they had stashed some
11536s of those lovely Soul blooms so they're
11538s going to be able to cleanse that Yang
11540s depletion and keep things moving as we
11543s take a look it looks like a drg and ntl
11546s are going to be your winners from the
11548s realm of Yang and drg takes Mystic might
11550s over the vermillian birds
11553s might two games running we've seen teams
11556s grab that Mystic might as we turn it now
11558s back to VC the boys here Roy HEI and v&c
11562s have 3 minutes and 30 seconds left to
11565s find some soul Bloom this Yang depletion
11568s they don't believe in it they don't
11569s believe in the Vermilion bird L could be
11571s some bad mojo they're like no no no no
11573s no no that could be some bad mojo in
11575s there we don't like that just how you
11576s were saying some voodo earlier they were
11577s like no no no no no no they treated it
11579s just like that no I'm good we can keep
11581s our uh Mystic mid and we'll be able to
11583s hold strong to that meanwhile cxz caught
11585s in a tough situation here as it looks
11586s like he's going to try to Grapple this
11588s out here goes Airborne Roy he he wants
11591s to be able to get some type of
11592s expendable elimination here to get
11594s something
11595s going cxz is going to not make it easy
11597s for him here but he wants that he wants
11599s to get this Chase going oh no cxz ends
11602s up getting caught onto the rock here as
11604s now the chase is definitely a lot closer
11606s than it appears now as they're waiting
11607s for the blue charge strike on each side
11609s here ends up going for the Tak down here
11610s the ulti comes through trying to see if
11612s they can create some pressure and now
11613s they rotate this out giving cxz an
11615s opportunity to maybe get away but it's
11617s not going to be enough as he does end up
11619s canceling that out and both of them see
11620s him as an open opportunity here and they
11622s don't even give him the chance he gets
11623s sliced and dice flipped over sauteed
11626s cooked like a pancake and says here
11628s let's drizzle some syrup on you give you
11630s some pancakes and voila you got yourself
11632s a homemade special all right so they've
11634s cleansed one of their players Yang
11636s depletion now it's going to be
11638s interesting to see how they close this
11639s out do they go hunt down another team to
11642s look for the potential other two Soul
11643s blooms or do they have enough money that
11646s they can let two of their players die
11648s and then just simply buy them back into
11650s the game as we turn our attention over
11652s to U G Going head to-head here with the
11655s members of I do believe team GG SS going
11658s to get caught out here in this huge
11661s Viper stun jinu also going to be walked
11664s down onto but we're going to see that
11666s zipping coming in clutch with the
11668s ultimate here unfortunately zenu
11669s immediately turns back around and gets
11671s parried he's able to use the gold Focus
11673s off of the F to escape most of the
11675s punish coming in from an SS and lxm
11678s going head to-head here SS will get the
11680s read finds the Parry as well and now
11682s there are starting to flip this fight on
11684s its head as ug sends team GG back to the
11689s lobby absolutely insane what a great
11691s display coming in as we see IDC getting
11693s chased by VC VC looks like they want to
11695s get this fight and this could be the
11697s team that gives them the rest of their
11698s team Staying Alive throughout this or
11700s this could be the the time where it
11702s could be a night night for him but it
11703s doesn't look like it is bandoro trying
11704s to hold on for as long as possible both
11707s both teada ultis doing a whole lot a lot
11709s of beautiful parry's coming through nice
11711s hits nice collides beautiful defense
11713s coming in from Boro having to go through
11714s a 2v one situation here trying to keep
11716s the game alive and not trying to get
11718s bunched out on both sides here as they
11720s both scale Rush super super high into
11722s the air both the ulti and the heals from
11724s the F tries to see if they can keep it
11725s together here but bandoro ends up
11727s getting sliced and diced in so many
11728s different ways one ends up getting the
11730s soul blade now there is two now there's
11732s one more all they need is one more
11735s elimination and now just like that
11736s they're able to get it and they get the
11738s heal and now just like that VC is back
11740s into the game Z caught out by himself
11743s trying to hold on but water is going to
11745s make it wet and get the finish and
11747s splashes it everywhere meanwhile drg
11750s seni able to see if they can figure out
11752s the next space here trying to work
11754s towards it here where could he go Roy
11756s HEI now getting tased by drg's wooin and
11759s it looks like the rest of the team is
11760s going to have to come through here and
11761s it looks like the time strike could be
11762s great beautiful Perry for the nice
11764s shutdown here whoin playing the game of
11767s his life so far beautiful Q strike here
11769s but it looks like fun plus Fenix is also
11770s going to come through and also cause
11771s some problems Roy he gets caught by the
11774s nice fierceness of that
11777s blue that that was gold Doby that was
11779s that was dragons were coming in those
11781s nunchuks absolutely that was gold Focus
11784s dragons were on the nunchuks here fun
11786s plus Phoenix's dong quing loves him some
11788s nun jugs and he's got dragons where they
11790s are going to be a problem Dobby aspon
11794s here looking for the opportunity to
11795s slide in and potentially get Roy he back
11798s into this game the third party into
11800s fourth party into fifth party has
11801s spelled disaster for VC in this game
11804s unfortunately as we head into the realm
11805s of Yang it's going to be ug versus
11808s xcg going head tohe here and we're going
11811s to see SS already going to lose most of
11814s his shield there to some huge hits from
11816s the pole sword here from lxh lxh really
11819s putting in work unfortunately SS forced
11821s to use those furins defensively and he's
11824s already burnt through almost every
11826s single one of them he's got one left in
11827s the tank it's gone SS does get the full
11830s heal here the sustain from zipping
11832s coming in strong but he has no furin
11835s left in the tank the ultimate is over
11837s and unfortunately ug on a little bit of
11840s a backfoot as the members of xcg start
11843s to clutch this out alexh going to get
11845s caught out in a wisp though going to use
11846s a wisp of his own to go Airborne to get
11848s away the F activation just to live ni HQ
11852s in the background here throwing those
11853s bow shots out nobody has been eliminated
11856s yet inside this real of Yang it is still
11858s a 3v3 zenu goes down though and now the
11863s tide has turned xcg loses two of its
11866s members and it all comes down to this
11871s ohu holding it down strong here the king
11874s trying to Outlast the storm but xcg
11879s comes out on top beautiful find there to
11882s create that Synergy here knowing that
11884s they can get that 2V1 situation doesn't
11886s give anybody a chance realistically to
11889s try to recover they just keep that
11890s pressure on him the whole time and
11892s definitely forces everything else
11893s outside of it and just like that was
11895s able to reward them to win xcg playing
11897s that consistency like always here and
11900s moreover
11901s still being able to puncture and punish
11904s these teams and now they are seven
11906s eliminations deep meanwhile this other
11908s team it's going to be ug to reset yeah
11912s they're going to have to find another
11913s team to wipe off the board so they can
11915s Cleanse This Yang depletion as soon as
11917s humanly possible 4 minutes remaining
11920s until they are completely out of this
11921s Lobby turning our attention back to ntl
11924s here setting themselves up for success
11927s with the gear they've finally been able
11928s to scale decently into one of these
11930s games unfortunately try hard with the
11932s blue staff but more than happy to have
11934s it given that he just shows the ace up
11936s his sleeve there with the meress Havoc
11939s not only that he's got meteor for the
11941s cannon too Dobby oh wow absolutely too
11945s and dangerous um things to have on your
11948s roster here and on your slots here for
11951s your weapons let's see if they're going
11952s to use that to their advantage clearly
11954s they will but obviously for ntl finally
11957s getting able to get at least elimination
11959s on the board definitely has to be a
11960s little bit of a breather at least to get
11962s something 5.6 three eliminations for him
11964s um and let's see where they can really
11966s take this over over the rest of this
11969s game here as we look at UG and it looks
11970s like they're going to get potentially
11971s aggressive here on to
11973s 521 trying to see if maybe they can get
11975s some hits with either the bow or the
11977s cannon not fully pushing onto it though
11979s they just want to read it and just see
11981s what's going on in terms of where where
11982s are they going or at least follow all
11984s the way until eventually they decide
11986s it's time to absolutely drop and it's
11987s time to strike here as it looks like
11988s they're going to separate from one of
11989s them and it looks like pby could be the
11991s one but it looks like one of them ends
11992s up grapping him hits him with the stop
11994s immediately calls out the no Al Zone
11996s just so they can start to that woan is
11997s going to take them out immediately
11998s before ug can really connect oh my
12000s goodness ug here in that new old Zone
12003s it's going to find it it very difficult
12005s to walk into this fight here look at
12007s this I love it coming in from 5 to1 they
12009s throw the Tessa ultimate from outside
12011s the no old Zone into the players of ug
12014s from the inside here Unfortunately they
12016s aren't going to find the value off of
12017s their Viper ultimate CU that no old Zone
12019s does exist and will cancel the channel
12021s here SS will get caught out there in the
12023s Tessa ultimate but unfortunately he
12026s can't move into range to support his
12027s team here that no old Zone stopping him
12029s from pressuring forward and 5 to1
12031s continue to play around it there it is
12033s the old going to be immediately ended
12035s there by the no ultimate zone so SS is
12037s just going to be forced to play off of
12039s these dual blades here using that c
12041s Bloom to to their advantage though it
12043s looks like he finally find some value
12045s and pick up not one but two eliminations
12047s onto the players of 521 but fun Plus
12049s Phoenix never a team to miss an
12051s opportunity comes in for the third party
12054s they will find another elimination on to
12057s 521 they're able to get the soul blooms
12059s and cleanse themselves but now stuck in
12062s the zone ug is looking battered and
12066s beaten Dobby definitely can't be in
12069s these situations here definitely looks
12071s like you could be a little bit more an
12072s open source and that's got to be really
12074s tough as seni ends up getting open
12075s source and grab in the middle of that
12077s just trying to run out and now he ends
12079s up getting dog piled by the rest of the
12081s team of ntl as they're both going to try
12083s to read this out sansi being able to
12085s have the time to dip out of here in the
12086s best way possible giving them the
12088s opportunity but now they're on the worst
12089s part of this section and Uphill climb up
12092s from the rooftops not the rooftops
12094s excuse me up the hills as now fun Plus
12097s Phoenix uses that as an opportunity to
12099s maybe capture some damage here but it's
12101s not going to be enough as try hard is
12103s mostly full HP here looks like hero and
12106s the rest of the team might have an
12107s opportunity here to maybe um get some
12111s Shields but hero currently in his
12112s Terracotta Warrior maybe causing a
12114s little bit of some Havoc here get some
12116s hits onto Don Queen nice hits on each
12118s side here ricocheting him and absolutely
12119s juggling him up in the air here doesn't
12121s give him too much of a time though as he
12122s ends up getting stopped immediately and
12124s just like that the UL comes out on two
12125s different ways both heals and the poison
12127s both ski and try hard ends up getting
12129s clipped and they get absolutely
12130s destroyed by the repeating crossbow
12132s nothing to do nowhere to be found
12134s nothing to try to hold on to and just
12136s like that woin and szi ends up getting
12139s two free kills out of that oh my
12141s goodness so unfortunate for ntl you got
12144s to give it to him the passion they had
12146s less than a minute left remaining on
12148s that Yang depletion and they knew they
12150s were down ultimates but they continued
12152s the chase they wanted to go down
12154s fighting Dobby one way or another they
12156s were either going to find their way back
12158s into the game or they were going to get
12159s eliminated in a good old fight
12162s absolutely the good old fight that they
12164s wanted good old fight they got might not
12167s have necessarily been the fight that
12168s they wanted but at least for the other
12169s team it was exactly what they accepted a
12171s good old B+ in my book okay that's at
12174s least a good 70 80 80% it's 80% for
12177s Beast um 90% for Ace so A for effort in
12181s certain instances so let's see if they
12182s can come back towards this though as it
12184s looks like um ug is able to do the usage
12187s of the Valiant Challenge and now they
12189s still have a really great opportunity
12190s here get themselves decent amount of
12192s loot here but not
12194s HQ and the rest of the team fully
12196s stacked out ready to go here and the
12198s heals coming through very very helpful
12200s for everybody here xcg really playing
12202s this game out and really realizing the
12204s range that they have and knowing that
12206s it's not worth it realistically to push
12208s in there knowing that they have this
12209s opportunity here
12211s ug is going to find it the king gets the
12214s G Shield denu gets absolutely shredded
12216s of his shield and now they might give
12218s them the opportunity to push inwards
12219s toward this if they really decided to
12221s zenu it definitely has lost some of his
12223s shield but now he's able to gain that
12225s back regain it and it just realizes that
12227s xcg definitely is one of the better
12229s teams cuz they decided this is
12230s definitely not the place to really fight
12233s this out and that is why they're one of
12235s those top teams look when you've got a
12237s good old zipping in the back pocket it
12238s looks like they also have group heal you
12241s can afford to go in get absolutely
12243s shredded like that and then just keep on
12245s the Move while your
12246s zip absolutely just tops you back up and
12249s you get to keep playing the game and
12251s continuing to do everything that you
12253s need to do taking a look here NQ and xcg
12256s holding on not only to the top of the
12258s leader board right now but the top of
12260s even tide Temple buying themselves some
12263s much needed space as we get ready to
12265s head in it is zone four collapsing on to
12267s zone 5 and we only have 11 players left
12270s alive Doby the in game one when we went
12273s to zone five we had 27 players
12277s absolutely wild wild indeed drg on the
12281s outside here in engage with fun Plus
12282s Phoenix yet again and unfortunately uh
12286s that ultimate will be invested but fun
12288s Plus Phoenix is still going to get the
12289s elimination corki yet again the lone
12293s solo player here for
12297s drg is going to have to make it to end
12299s game and make those kills count for as
12301s much as humanly possible it's starting
12304s to look like a very similar game three
12306s for them that they had in game number
12308s two Dobby yes but it currently looks
12309s like U overall is probably going to be
12312s our winner which I called it before I
12314s would love to see ug end up getting that
12315s dub and maybe that payback here as much
12317s as I want to see v&c do it I also saw ug
12320s have that opportunity I said they
12321s definitely are going to use this to at
12323s least get a dub and get themselves a lot
12325s higher up into this placement this is
12327s definitely going to put them in first
12328s place for sure no question no doubt in
12332s my mind here as it looks like corki drg
12335s again fighting in the same space here
12336s meanwhile Don qu says
12339s YOLO Polo as it looks like he finds the
12341s opport here just for that and just like
12344s that the Rin able to take him out and
12346s says see you later my name is Cookie and
12349s I like to
12350s cook gki just trying to find any space
12353s he can get to where he's not going to
12355s get hunted down here but fun Plus
12356s Phoenix is on the hunt so corki is he
12360s going to decide just to let himself go
12362s no he decides he thinks better of it he
12364s goes very low to the tick he hides for
12366s as long as he possibly can in the zone
12369s there and it looks like fun Plus Phoenix
12371s doesn't find him out so he's going to
12372s live to make it to the end of the lobby
12374s here ug no I almost no he lets himself
12378s die to the
12379s Zone corki decides it's not worth giving
12383s these other teams another elimination
12385s and goes down to the Zone
12387s tick definitely an interesting pick
12390s knowing that he could potentially if he
12392s had something decent on his roster in
12394s terms of a a a well rounded range weapon
12398s he could potentially maybe steal an
12399s elimination or two but very shocking to
12401s see that even in Within These first
12403s couple of games he just decides like no
12404s it's not worth it very very interesting
12407s strategy coming in from drg's quirky
12411s especially given how long he was able to
12413s survive out until the last game he was
12415s able to take second drg yeah and it's a
12419s huge difference between 0.5 and one
12421s placement points and 2.5 placement
12423s points so going to be interesting to see
12426s if that potentially comes back to uh
12428s haunt the drg AL let alone in this
12431s circle which there's a lot of floors to
12433s cover and there is a lot of vertical
12435s play in these moments he really could
12438s have found himself a decent little
12439s hiding spot here to where he really
12441s could have been able to just maximize
12443s this opportunity and just let these
12445s teams fight it out and if he does have a
12447s decent space to get some shots he could
12448s have been able to secure himself maybe
12450s at least an elimination or two as long
12452s as nobody's paying attention but it
12453s looks like it's going to be on the
12454s outskirts and a little bit more open so
12455s maybe it was the decent call just to
12457s decide NOP I'm not going to give anybody
12459s a free elimination a free score and it
12462s looks like now we're going to start to
12463s slowly close in on this circle as we see
12466s ug at the very end as you see that
12468s custom poster for bring the heat n the
12470s Rocka blade Point group stages
12473s absolutely showing up there whose face
12475s are we going to see as those grand
12476s Champions all over mors aisle and holl
12479s off that is yet to be seen as we're
12481s going to be able to go right back
12482s towards the action fun plus Fenix all
12484s the way up top here decent range weapons
12486s fun plus fenix's water has that has that
12488s meteor they're going to try to see if
12489s they can get some hits in so far though
12491s ug xcg fun Plus Phoenix who you got oh
12495s my goodness this is going to be a tight
12496s one but my money's on ug don't get me
12498s wrong fun Plus Phoenix excels at closing
12501s out end games but it's typically amongst
12503s the chaos of a large group of players so
12506s for there only to be three teams this is
12509s not really where fun Plus Phoenix excels
12511s as much because they have to figure out
12514s that momentum that Tipping Point where
12516s they don't end up being the team who's
12518s being third party xcg here lxh being an
12522s absolute Menace right now using that
12525s rupture Gale orb on his Cannon to just
12527s pepper ug through the floor knowing that
12531s that's where their position is man lxh
12534s is just coming in saying I'm going to
12536s make you I'm going to make you burn some
12537s resources ding
12539s dong Bing Bong ug coming out of their
12543s hidey hole here deciding that they've
12545s kind of had it with the members of uh
12547s xcg as they start to pressure out here
12550s and look to trade some shots with fun
12551s Plus Phoenix down below as well it's
12555s going to be a very tight Circle as we
12557s now have zone 6 collapsing on the six
12559s seventh final Zone here and ug has
12563s repositioned to the backside here where
12564s they have a little bit of space to
12566s maneuver into cuz this is going to be a
12568s tight Circle when it fully fully
12571s collapses and it's going to be fun Plus
12573s Phoenix holding a power position over
12575s the top side here they've got those wind
12576s walls to buy themselves some space and
12578s xcg just put into a corner no place to
12581s go they're extremely low these two teams
12583s are going to have to pressure very soon
12585s One Plus Phoenix coming in with the
12587s Tactical nuke looking to Lop down the
12588s whole Lobby it's xcg who's going to be
12590s the main target here though as they turn
12592s everything they have ug was able to get
12595s away from it we're going to see the wuen
12596s invested as they back away fun Plus
12599s Phoenix overc committing LX Dex brought
12602s back in xcg trying to keep it alive here
12605s holding on for dear life but it's ug
12607s who's coming in fresh they've popped the
12609s ultimate they get grabbed out but the
12611s furin followup here who's going to be
12613s able to pick up the eliminations is it
12615s going to be yes
12617s ug ug coming through absolutely being
12621s absolute detriment as xcg sees this as
12624s the opportunity here and fun Plus
12626s Phoenix using it to their advantage as
12628s they're both going to be able to collide
12629s all the way down the ulti comes through
12632s beautiful time strike here trying to see
12633s if maybe they can gather them up in one
12635s space ug's the king can barely Collide
12637s out of here and trying to get them out
12638s of Harm's Way ug's the king is going to
12640s be able to find a shield swap inside of
12641s the chest beautiful Perry on the SS here
12643s fun plus Phoenix's water trying to see
12644s if you can find it he is reading
12646s everybody like a book but it looks like
12648s ug is able to read it a little bit
12649s better as they both double team one of
12651s their players in Z is eliminated from
12653s this game meanwhile both being able to
12655s synergize on each side here double s
12657s trying to hold on strong water gets
12659s pushed outside of the circle the circle
12660s tick is absolutely bleeding them dry
12663s gets the Finish beautiful hits on the
12664s outskirts XG is nowhere to go and ug is
12668s able to close out game number three you
12671s ask me to call it Dobby and I called it
12673s ug is going to be the one who walks away
12675s in the end from that final circle from
12678s those three teams the king
12681s sscu able to put an MVP up on the board
12685s in the first half of the day they got it
12687s I I there was definitely a thing that we
12689s wanted to see and and hope that they did
12691s especially after their tremendous
12692s performance in game two so them coming
12694s in and absolutely destroying I mean it's
12696s not even close in terms of eliminations
12698s it's not even close so being able to do
12700s that and absolutely take the top spot in
12703s this first half what a strong starting
12705s performance for ugene yeah this is a
12707s huge game for them in terms of
12709s qualifying to head on from group stages
12712s to Grand finals this could be the game
12714s that cinches it all for them depending
12717s on how their performance goes throughout
12718s the rest of the week absolutely insane
12720s and what a tremendous performance from
12721s really all all of the players all around
12723s from xcg UG and of course fun Plus
12726s Phoenix fun Plus Phoenix hold on for a
12728s very very long time there oh absolutely
12730s but again this is the fun Plus Phoenix
12732s they know how to close out hectic end
12734s games going into an end game where it's
12737s three teams and you really have whoever
12741s engages first is at that detriment fun
12743s Plus Phoenix they don't really know how
12745s to hold off of that gas pedal so well so
12749s when they're put in that situation where
12751s it's like eh you don't want to be the
12753s first team you don't want to be H they
12755s just they've got that wkey mentality
12757s that they bring to those final circles
12759s Dobby it's crazy to see a team can
12761s thrive on chaos and can really multitask
12765s with so many things happening but then
12768s can fall short with a very calculated
12771s plan and a small set amount of people
12774s it's interesting to see how certain
12777s brains and how we're wired to wear that
12779s can be the struggle but for some reason
12782s when there's 10 people they're all
12784s dousing one person in the same section
12786s or we're getting four corners of monks
12788s in different areas and everybody's
12790s trying to reach and crab faster than
12792s like most tall dads trying to reach for
12794s a bag of you know a good bowl of
12797s Cheerios it's like you see all of these
12799s different things so it's interesting to
12800s see how they can adapt in the amongst
12803s all of this chaos but then when it comes
12805s down to those final moments and there's
12807s only a few people they just kind of s
12812s short well you know look when it comes
12815s down to it ug had really set themselves
12819s up for this final Circle they had the
12820s better gear they really had the better
12823s comp right for this final Circle and
12825s were just able to clutch it out they
12827s played that extremely well they baited
12829s out xcg into a corner and made fun Plus
12833s Phoenix step on that gas pedal they were
12835s then able to pull away from that after
12838s having picked up an elimination and
12841s return the third party back onto fun
12843s Plus Phoenix and xcg and the target
12846s acquisition was so on point when they
12847s were able to shove water out into the
12850s zone that was the moment that ug wins
12852s that game forced that Circle to do the
12854s work for them but also cuz water
12856s realistically was
12857s the you okay sorry I'm short circuiting
12860s I need like four people talking to me at
12861s once cuz I clearly what they needed um
12864s it's interesting to see how water was
12866s really the deciding factor of fun Plus
12868s Phoenix cuz everybody was really dialed
12870s in the moment water was gone the rest of
12872s the team Center G just yeah absolutely
12875s and that's the thing is sometimes if
12877s you're just able to identify who the
12879s target acquisition needs to be if you're
12881s able to lock that Target down separate
12883s them from the team it's very hard for a
12886s team to bounce back sometimes when that
12888s plan that you thought out in your head
12891s and you were like surely this is going
12892s to work there's no way we don't just big
12895s vibe off of this all of a sudden
12897s crumbles under your feet now you have to
12901s recalculate that entire plan and when
12903s you're fun Plus Phoenix and you don't
12905s have that chaos around you to play off
12907s of it can be very difficult but that's a
12910s situation that ug thrives in and again
12913s they were playing the better comp for
12915s final Circle they had the better gear
12917s Advantage for final Circle and they were
12919s able to bait fun Plus Phoenix into that
12922s situation where they kind of gas pedal a
12924s little too soon they were able to draw
12927s them into that bad Bight so that they
12929s could turn a third party back around
12931s onto them and this is ug knowing the
12935s competition knowing how to play into
12937s their mental and draw them into a bad
12940s position so that they can capitalize on
12942s it and I think I want to smash them all
12944s now Speed Up Gas FAL gasal gas is no
12950s more than six seconds
12952s tomby I was about four oh my goodness
12955s there we go here it is ladies and
12956s gentlemen the first 20 bomb of the 2023
12960s J cup trios goes to ug with 21
12965s eliminations and a game score of
12967s 33.4 what a strong finish for our half
12971s here but let's not forget drg holding on
12974s for as long as possible 11 eliminations
12976s and a 15.8 that's still going to be
12978s really good for them and xcg again
12980s rounding out that third spot with that
12983s 13.7 they're still there they're still
12985s getting those eliminations they're still
12987s getting those points it's just you know
12989s oh ug just decided it's time to go crazy
12991s say it with me now Dobby
12994s consistency oh my goodness and of course
12997s with fun Plus Phoenix getting into that
12998s top five here seven eliminations also
13000s tying that up up with 521 but 11.1
13003s overall here and look at these numbers
13006s the king oh my God that's 50,000,000
13010s that's 50,000 that's 50,000 you might as
13014s well round it off that's almost 50,000
13015s in healing that is an MVP if I don't if
13017s I don't if there's nothing else if 12
13019s assists too it's just absolutely MVP
13022s material that is MVP material keeping
13025s your team alive in so many hectic
13027s situations here ug was able to do the
13029s most but the king clearly goodness Grand
13032s so you remember you remember last game
13033s when you said you were like I'm
13035s impressed that zipping did 5K healing
13037s that's a whole lot of healing that's a
13039s whole lot healing yeah yeah the King was
13040s listening to that and said hey Dobby
13042s Dobby I'm going show you what a lot of
13043s healing is cuz we about to attack
13044s another zero on the end of that 50,000
13048s goodness gracious oh my goodness okay
13050s there were only less than 200 200 points
13053s of healing away from I'm just going to
13055s round it off and just say that's a 50
13056s bomb that's 50k that is a 50 bomb of
13059s healing if we're going to look at the
13060s total standing though still a little bit
13062s of some struggles ntl finally got on the
13065s board 5.1 not exactly nothing huge but
13069s 6.1 they at least got something then
13072s that sometimes that's all you need is a
13073s little bit of something CU it's better
13074s than getting a whole lot of nothing as
13076s we look back towards that 521 rounds out
13078s the top seven but look at this 30s 30s
13081s tying it up with GG and drg with that
13084s 30.3 and just like that ug takes the
13087s lead with less than a 0.6
13091s score that's what I'm talking about our
13094s boys from ug happy to see the king
13097s coming in finding their pacing in game
13100s number three and able to climb all the
13102s way to the top of the leaderboard and
13105s you know what shaking things up here
13107s we've got ug we've got xcg we've got fun
13110s Plus Phoenix and we've got
13112s VGC all of these teams performing
13115s exceptionally well in all of their game
13118s able to climb to the top the leader
13120s board right now and man it's going to be
13123s a good year for D rocket we take a look
13124s at some of these replays here we're to
13126s see ug right here this is the fight that
13128s they're able to come in 5 to1 really
13131s trying to play them around this no old
13133s Zone bait this fight out but it doesn't
13135s matter ug's able to come in they're able
13137s to cleanse that Yang depletion and keep
13139s the game
13141s alive keeping the game alive was
13143s definitely the name of that game here as
13145s ntl and try hard trying to do what they
13147s can here but this was definitely a
13149s cyanara from as they got the stun that
13152s Viper was able to do the most fun Plus
13154s Phoenix with a beautiful hit onto xcg
13156s that literally captivates the rest of
13158s the team and costes the problems but
13160s there goes that double starter hit not
13162s only with the stun but the Parry was
13163s able to shut down xcg and obviously ug
13166s was able to round it off all the way
13168s pushes niq off the outskirts gets into
13170s fun plus fenix's water and then they're
13172s able to close it out with xcg lxh they
13176s held that for as long as possible and
13177s they played the game of their life and
13179s are we surprised to see the king being
13182s the MVP with 50,000 healing uh here we
13186s go I called this as well right I called
13188s the group heel coming in when we saw
13190s zinu go extremely low he not only had
13192s the group heel he had the advanced heel
13194s if you're on zipping no wonder he was
13197s able to get almost that 50k healing here
13199s group heal Advance heal you're running
13201s around you're healing your team all the
13203s time and you're zipping so you have some
13205s of the most effective healing abilities
13207s in the entire game and of course if
13210s you're U G's the king you're going to
13212s push that to the Limit can we say one
13214s thing too 12,000 damage coming in from
13217s just the fan alone 12,000 okay literally
13221s that's only like the rest of the 4,000
13223s comes from anything else that fan put in
13225s absolute work just as much as that
13227s healing Circle did with 50,000 healing
13230s I'm just going to be sitting that for
13231s the rest of the day 50,000 healing the
13232s king you did your thing handsome as
13234s could be and look at that you able to
13235s heal your team up like always like we we
13238s we going to have to name him Mr 50k you
13240s know you know what I'm saying he's got
13241s to have a 50k now he's got to have a 50k
13243s badge he has to after that point I'm I'm
13245s convinced you got me I'm sold like
13247s that's insane to be able to do that and
13249s still be able to produce a decent amount
13251s of eliminations I even with how they
13253s were able to synergize that towards the
13255s very end because that really could have
13257s been in reality anyone's game with the
13259s right stun somebody pushes a little bit
13260s more aggressively somebody pushes back
13263s xcg was far on the out sky by themselves
13266s that stun from the Viper takes the rest
13268s and then them up top is just trying to
13269s Pelt as much as POS here here's the
13271s thing is ug plan this out right they
13274s applied a pressure to xcg who was in
13276s that corner absolutely when they applied
13278s that pressure fun Plus Phoenix having
13281s The High Ground applies the pressure ug
13283s knows fun Plus Phoenix is in this final
13286s Circle they know that fun Plus Phoenix
13288s will press any advantage they get
13291s because they like to ride that gas pedal
13294s they don't know how to slow it down as
13296s soon somebody had to make the choice
13297s somebody had to go as soon as xcg gets a
13300s little bit bit low from all of those
13301s rain shots what do you see happen ug
13305s starts across the middle of the map they
13307s take a couple little trades with xcg but
13309s they don't actually Force themselves
13311s into that corner and what happens is is
13314s fun Plus Phoenix goes oh it's go time
13316s and then ug hard swerves left they
13320s understand that they have baited fun
13321s Plus Phoenix into that fight and as soon
13323s as that Viper hole comes down ug has
13325s tucked themselves into that little
13328s balcony to completely avoid the stun but
13331s once fun Plus Phoenix has given up their
13333s position of power they've dropped down
13335s they no longer have that stun and that
13337s stun was the biggest threat to ug they
13340s just come in off of the top rope and go
13343s hey fun Plus Phoenix thanks for doing it
13345s up for us we're going to take it away
13347s now and not only that too that also left
13349s xcg in a very open situation meanwhile
13352s both of them was able to hold up top
13355s here as one is up top the other one's
13356s down low at the bottom when that Viper
13358s Al hits like you said before they're up
13360s on that they ain't got to worry about
13361s none of that they ain't have to worry
13363s about none of that but as we're going to
13364s be able to work towards that we still
13366s got to give you guys another video and
13367s it's coming from Z see you guys in a
13373s moment thank you all to casters and hi
13375s everyone this is Jer and welcome to post
13377s game interview and now I'm standing here
13379s with Shia and let him say hello to our
13381s audience
13385s [Music]
13389s hello
13403s so long time didn't go to the postgame
13405s interview and I would just like to know
13407s is if shiau is a a little bit nervous
13409s and he told me yes a little bit nervous
13411s because rest for so long time okay let's
13414s back to the matches today so to the J
13417s cup so how's your feeling for today's
13419s matches and especially your opponent
13421s from other
13431s [Music]
13449s regions
13459s so actually I think these teams like
13462s they come here last year they gave us
13464s some pressure so first of all because
13466s they are traditional Esports club and
13469s they have the experience that's why
13471s after they come to Shanghai and in the
13474s jup and we really a little bit nervous
13477s and has also give us a lot of pressure
13481s okay let's move on to next part answer
13483s for
13488s Treasure okay so you guys can see the
13490s question on the screen and if you know
13492s the answer just type them in the chat
13494s box after our player can 3 2 1 we will
13498s take a screenshot and the lucky guy will
13500s be whispered so let's see today's
13503s question how many score did fpx zq
13507s achieve in this match how didn't
13521s [Music]
13533s okay I just asked him because they did
13535s really good performance in the game
13536s three and I would like to know how he
13539s gave the score to his teammate and he
13541s said like 9.9 because the L 0.1 is
13546s because they have some mistakes in the
13548s final because of the opponent okay so I
13552s think our players prepar and let's start
13561s counting one
13564s okay 3 2 1 screenshot okay don't be
13569s nervous okay and let's find out the
13571s correct
13575s answer a yes the correct answer is a
13580s okay and last question I would like to
13582s know because from the game one to game
13584s three we know the patch version we have
13587s the new hero Hardy but we didn't see it
13590s yet in the show game so I would like to
13592s know
13598s why anyway
13600s [Music]
13614s so because hardi is the new hero now in
13617s nraa and for now I think in the trolls
13620s game every team doesn't find a good like
13623s competition for Hardy and don't know
13625s which hero can like cooperate with Hardy
13629s but it's really strong in Solo game and
13631s we can looking forward to its
13641s performance okay good luck to you and
13644s thank you for today's interview and we
13645s will take a break and be right back
13659s later
13676s bcq King is here hi everyone I'm IDC say
13679s I'm glad that I'm back and I'm ready to
13681s shine on the
13688s stage
13694s it's a world competition now and
13696s everyone is a top player from their
13697s region except a few
13713s people I'm ready to fight J team we
13716s finally arrived but where is J team m
13731s exactly as the Chinese proverb
13734s says watch out for
13748s yourself
13754s [Music]
13778s this game is about brains and our team
13779s did not La wisdom as the na Trio
13782s Champions we're going to make it through
13783s to the Grand
13797s finals don't worry I will only Crush you
13799s inside the game and not in real life
13802s with
13807s these hello I'm Z I'm part of team IDC
13810s I'm 24 years old and I have background
13813s in kungu this is actually my first time
13815s in China and it feels really good to be
13818s in China uh I think China is really
13820s beautiful and I really like the people
13822s in China I think they're very uh
13823s respectful for everyone I think my
13825s favorite Chinese food is Chinese Mala I
13828s ate it last year at Jacob in Singapore
13831s and this year I really would like to try
13833s it in shangi I think the mvpl players
13835s are really coordinated uh they play
13838s really good together the China teams I
13840s think they're far ahead of us but I
13842s believe that we can catch up and that we
13844s can perform well this year I really look
13846s forward to fighting te uh I think they
13848s are really Innovative with their comps
13850s that they are making um so yeah I'm
13852s really looking forward to fight them I
13854s think it'll take a lot of uh good
13856s practice now during the scms uh we also
13858s have a coach from America raen um he's
13862s coaching us really good so far so I
13864s think with him we can um qualify
13867s probably I think the other teams need to
13869s watch out for us I think we're the Dark
13871s Horse of the competition and we prepared
13873s for
13876s [Music]
13885s us hello everybody and welcome back to
13888s the nraa blade Point 2023 J cup I'm Moxy
13892s and I'm joined on the desk with Duncan
13893s as we have the absolute pleasure of
13895s getting to bring you the second half of
13897s triers day one and Duncan what a
13900s memorable set of free games that have
13901s been so far oh absolutely we have had
13905s set of games leading up to this fourth
13907s game we're now in the second half it is
13909s now the pressure starting to ramp up
13911s just a little bit certain teams lurking
13914s at the bottom of the leaderboard you
13916s know we've only got 12 games total to
13918s really set a good scoring for each
13922s individual team they need to try and
13924s create a bigger as bigger lead as they
13925s can however one thing I would like to
13928s note is that we've got some teams
13929s looking at the bottom leader board it's
13931s not the end of the world you know the
13933s main thing that these teams need to try
13935s and figure out is that it happens you
13938s know this sort of thing it happens to it
13940s happens to the best of us truly and as
13942s soon as they realize that as soon as
13944s they recognize that fact I think they'll
13946s feel a lot more confident because they
13947s aren't they aren't just getting
13950s absolutely just slammed they're not just
13953s getting
13953s completely screwed over it's it's it's
13956s actually kind of close sometimes you
13958s know we've seen so many fights for
13960s example ntl they've been having some
13962s really good fights in early games and
13964s then certain times they've just been
13967s lacking a little bit of loot for example
13969s it's just been a bit unfortunate there's
13971s been a lot of rather unfortunate
13973s situations for example in the most
13975s recent match we had tryhard and ski
13978s getting stuck in the zone getting hit by
13981s that Tessa charm just absolutely melted
13985s by those crossbows and it did so so much
13988s so many teams l around them they had the
13990s Yang depletion they desperately were
13992s trying to find some way of cleansing it
13994s but unfortunately they weren't able to
13995s do so that was their highest scoring
13997s game so far in the series and hopefully
14000s they're going to be able to take that
14002s little bit of that little nudge in the
14003s right direction forward and get the ball
14005s r i mean you can absolutely bounce back
14007s look no further than yesterday right
14009s spider comes in first day game of the
14012s day doesn't do that great and then he
14013s picks up back to back to back MVP is
14016s like an absolute well like the absolute
14018s champ that he
14019s he is defending that title and he's
14021s looking a lot more confident and it is
14023s going to be a lot you know about the
14024s experience a lot of being able to deal
14026s with the pressure and stress and knowing
14028s as well having that mental fortitude and
14030s this is something that we do talk about
14031s multiple times some of these teams are
14033s here for the very first time ntl however
14036s they have try hard they have that one
14038s player that they can rally behind he's
14040s going to be able to give him a little
14041s bit of a pep talk in the little bit of
14043s time that we had between games three
14045s heading into game four so hopefully
14047s fingers crossed we're going to see a big
14049s difference coming through from that team
14051s cuz like you said sometimes they did
14054s really just get the short end of the
14055s stick especially when it came to some of
14057s those drops yes we did see that first
14060s game of H off getting reset but still my
14063s heart absolutely broke you and Ian we
14065s saw that drop in theab we both sunk a
14068s little bit fur down in our seats because
14070s theab is not not a fun loot puff on holl
14073s off you can spawn on entirely different
14075s levels where those troves are mixes up
14078s massively you also have to remember as
14080s well that you're going to be dodging
14081s things like those miniature for new
14083s rollers hanging from the sky and you
14085s have to be so quick but so careful and
14088s that just doesn't fit well if there's
14090s another team in the area and that's
14092s exactly what happened ntl landed and
14094s another team are the ones that are able
14096s to find the Tres first and it feels like
14098s that's been happening to a lot of teams
14099s so far today absolutely but however we
14102s let's talk about the top of the
14103s leaderboard oh ladies oh all of these
14105s teams VGC I'd like to talk about they've
14107s been doing so unbeliev well today
14110s sitting I think it was the fourth the
14113s fourth place spot on total
14115s leaderboard they've been playing so
14117s unbelievably well consistently well and
14119s it's just it's lovely to see because
14121s that was their main issue but hey here
14123s we have the support raate up on the
14125s screen just down here we have the in
14128s first place currently we have 5 to1
14130s Second is bngc third Lobby 28 a lot of
14134s support going out to these teams and hey
14136s we were just talking about BC no the one
14139s of their biggest issues was that they
14141s struggled so much to to stay consistent
14145s and stay on the balls to keep that ball
14147s rolling in the previous tournaments and
14151s it looks as though they may have they
14153s may have worked out the Kings they've
14154s worked out the wrinkles they've ired
14155s them out and they've come here to play a
14158s Jacob group I mean not just that but if
14160s you were here watching Jacob last year
14162s you're going to remember the Roy he he
14164s monk I'm not surprised that V andc are
14167s ahead in terms of those support raids
14168s because they have the added benefit of
14170s having that memory from the previous
14172s having that previous experience and fan
14174s base because I mean when you're taking a
14177s fight one versus three especially as a
14179s Tian high things are going to have to go
14181s horribly horribly wrong for you to be
14183s able to walk out on top and that's
14185s exactly what happened around the base
14187s Tower of ballista Roy he he is able to
14190s go for the Monk and instead of
14191s disengaging the team re-engage and both
14194s get scoped and he's able to find the
14196s double crab it's absolutely insane but
14198s that's the thing Roy he he used to be
14200s known for his monk but it feels like
14202s he's taken that year of downtime to
14204s really fixate on learning a lot of these
14206s different Heroes to play around the hero
14208s Point rule so even if you struggle on
14210s the Transformer composition you can
14212s still make up for missing some of those
14214s points of something like a s Sion
14216s composition which we do have to talk
14217s about because oh my goodness you want to
14220s talk about memorable I don't think we've
14223s ever seen a higher heal stat coming
14226s through than ug the king after that last
14230s match
14232s 48,000 it's just it's absolutely Bonkers
14236s truly getting just under 50,000 healing
14241s I mean we did take a look at those jads
14243s that he had in the inventory he had the
14245s advanced heal and the group heal and for
14248s those of you who don't know these Jades
14250s synergize so unbelievably well together
14253s I mean he proved it the king he showed
14255s us how it's done that is that's the top
14258s tier of zipping in players he he just he
14261s just doesn't die he's he's constantly
14264s able to keep his team alive he's
14265s constantly able to send out those FS the
14268s damage reduction the ultimates the
14269s perfectly timed ultimates to keep his
14271s team from getting taken down and then
14273s also another thing which I also think
14275s speaks to how good a zipping y player
14277s can be is the anticipation of damage so
14281s knowing when to use your ultimate but
14283s also being able to tell once that danger
14286s has dissipated
14290s yeah being able to cancel your ultimate
14292s and just save as much of that ultimate R
14296s and charge as possible so that you can
14298s go straight back in to another fight or
14300s potentially if you get caught in the
14302s third party you're still prepared you're
14304s still ready to go and you're still able
14306s to stay in the fight it's so so
14308s important but yes Advanced heal group
14310s here ladies and gentlemen it really does
14313s wonders Bonkers it's absolutely Bonkers
14315s and even you know more points going
14318s forwards for that zip we saw ntl get
14320s caught out like you said with the Tessa
14322s ultimate locking down both your monk but
14325s also your karumi and as a result you're
14327s not able to use the F3 to use that 90%
14330s damage reduction on the te snap to keep
14333s your monk face tanking through all of
14335s the followup damage on those repeater
14338s crossbows in fact karumi yes she can do
14341s so much in terms of mitigation
14343s especially with the changes coming
14344s through where she now does get that heal
14346s on the F3 but it bars her out of
14348s fighting entirely zip can still keep the
14351s team chugging along but she gets to make
14354s sure that all of the other teams around
14356s her are still taking an additional level
14358s of pressure from a player still in a
14360s fight absolutely being able to stay on
14362s the Move stay mobile it it truly speaks
14365s to how strong and how consistently well
14368s sand siphon tamul zipping Y and teada is
14372s able to perform in these lobbies in this
14374s environment it's just it's become the
14376s staple it's we we see it so much more
14379s often now it's it's insane and I I do
14382s love how this composition came about how
14384s it went through changes it went through
14386s experimentation we had iterations where
14389s it was toada to mul and then monk
14392s tianhai in there we had so many
14394s different versions of this composition
14396s but finally we settle on this one and
14399s true sand siphon or Juggernaut if you
14402s will whatever you'd like to call it it
14405s is out there and is throwing punches and
14407s it is doing extreme well I mean we VC in
14411s one of their interviews he talked about
14413s how that composition was their core that
14415s was their best composition and how it
14418s was that was the one that they were
14420s going to focus on the most try and get
14422s as tip toop and ready to go as possible
14425s as it's the one that has the potentially
14427s highest payoff you know you're able to
14430s still do reasonably well in end games
14433s when you're matched up against the
14435s Transformer compositions chanai Yan and
14438s karumi your you're able to still last in
14441s those in those Arenas in those
14443s environments you've got your oh right
14445s here on the screen we have your viper
14447s yime wuen your attack on Titan as it's
14450s been called many a time now it's able to
14454s do very well in the mid game as an a as
14456s a sort of assassination comp if you will
14458s you you dive in with the Viper silence
14461s or potentially use the the F3 variation
14465s that does a lot more damage and prevents
14467s the person that you connected to from
14470s being able to heal for a certain amount
14471s of time yeah it's great to counter that
14473s zip it's really good for sun safe and
14475s the problem is in Sun safe and Zip's not
14477s playing forward Zip's playing behind
14478s deada and tamy are always the ones in
14480s the forward position so if they get the
14483s pressure you've got that Avenue appeal
14485s with the Wisp something else we haven't
14487s got to see though Duncan is faia true I
14490s wonder if we're going to see the F start
14493s to come through we did get that version
14496s of the Yuan Yoto and Justa but something
14499s that you and I both noted was it was
14501s playing into unfortunately a Lobby field
14504s of sandip and justtina into it's not fun
14507s that sound gets everywhere and
14509s unfortunately the Justina does not get
14510s an easy exit outside of it as opposed to
14513s trying to counter that farer with the
14515s new freeze timer on those Transformer
14517s units but it doesn't look oh oh wait
14520s there it is once again we are going to
14521s see Justina come into the mix but yet
14523s again Duncan there's no faer there's
14527s very little fa we do have a bit of a
14529s question mark up in oh there it is it's
14532s gone now we have wuen coming in for 330
14536s on team CD G going for that Tessa Viper
14541s Wen composition we've been talking about
14544s this this composition's potential name
14547s you know you think the silent Fox
14549s perhaps it I think kind of works but yes
14552s this composition has been seeing a lot
14553s more play especially now I think the
14556s meta is going to shift away from your
14559s yoim viper wuen replacing Yoto with the
14563s Tessa and then having the potential to
14565s take a different composition like VGC
14568s just have with yime in there Justina and
14572s Yan being able to use that aggression
14575s this does it does do decently into sand
14579s siphon into into your tamul toada
14582s zipping as you are able to completely
14585s burst down the teada the teada with the
14588s f from yime recently changed recently
14591s buffed you're able to do so much yeah it
14594s becomes really hard to avoid I mean it's
14596s so long we've also got you know the
14598s return of the Yodo Al infinite off of
14601s the back of the F2 which I am a huge fan
14604s of if we get to see it here I will be a
14606s very happy Yodo main but the fact that
14609s it lasts as long as it does because
14611s remember back in the day Yodo F3 used to
14614s be the go-to because of how long the
14616s darn sword actually lasted you would
14618s take a lot of damage as a Yoda you would
14620s drop your referee you would sit in the
14622s middle of it and you would get that heal
14623s off and it's something very similar that
14624s you can do with the F2 the thing is it's
14627s a window it's very similar to that teada
14629s right with your F you have to
14630s prematurely pop it and play into the
14632s Mind Games to actually have access to
14634s the combo break absolutely you have to
14636s be able to use that early but as you
14639s said they've they've changed it they've
14640s buffed it now so that it lasts a lot
14642s longer allowing you to have that window
14645s to use it essentially it gives you more
14648s time throw it down slightly earlier and
14650s it creates a bigger window where you
14652s have this pressure Avail to you but hey
14655s speaking of pressure there is a lot of
14657s pressure in the air over here to the
14660s Eastern side of the map we have ntl Team
14663s 28 and VGC all lurking around these
14666s buildings oh oh he was on the other side
14669s I thought I thought he was inside the
14670s building but no try hard narrowly
14673s narrowly missing out on catching oh BC
14676s Min he does go for the grapple try hard
14677s though he does does get chipped away at
14680s by the by the bngc team members
14683s preventing the engage they are ready to
14686s go they know that their their teammates
14688s are out in the open but they're ready
14690s for the Ambush it looks like ntl trying
14692s to push forward slightly they're trying
14693s to catch these players out of position
14697s oh hero going very aggressive onto Roy
14700s he he catches oh and Roy he catches him
14703s out the air with the swing from that P
14705s sword try hard going for the overh hold
14707s doesn't
14709s blew focus into the Parry but Roy he is
14711s able to dodge around it and avoid the
14713s damage ntl they have taken a big amount
14716s of Chip damage but they are so far not
14719s in too much danger but speaking of
14720s danger bngc mines he gets caught by this
14723s Tessa oh but the the turnaround team 28
14727s they lose a member the NGC do as well
14730s asborn has been taken down without using
14732s his ultimate unfortunately and NL coming
14735s in for the third party
14737s d229 he's trying his best to space out
14740s try hard and Co oh they're jumping in
14742s Roy he he with a huge turnar around
14744s Parry oh but the slam holy that
14750s was purple P saw damage ladies and gent
14754s I mean it was set up as well by his
14756s teammates lmv on the dagger to actually
14758s send him aial so Trad could Billy commit
14760s into doing the damage as we're going to
14762s see GG caught out inside the Baines bre
14766s this is the Bane bre that they dro but
14768s drg dropping that ult ultimate before
14771s the ban can hit deciding to hold their
14773s ground take the fight using the tul
14775s ultimate to immediately eliminate a
14777s player from the side of GG not allowing
14780s them to regroup so even if they take
14782s additional pressure coming on out from
14784s the Baines bre they've still got the
14786s numbers advantage and GG would have to
14788s back on off instead absolutely drg known
14793s for their early Moon Banes throughout
14795s the recent splits in nbpl they see that
14798s this that this team drops the moon B on
14800s top of them but oh you're trying to
14801s steal our strategy hey hey okay okay we
14804s know how to deal with it big dog and
14806s they turn around and they come away with
14808s three eliminations very nicely done by
14811s drg the xcg lurking on the uh on the
14816s Northern side of evti temple it looks as
14819s though they have been taken down they do
14821s they have managed to find some blue
14822s armors though they're not they're not
14824s too unlooted so to speak they do have a
14827s little bit in the Bank hlg as well o
14830s they've managed to pick up considerable
14831s number of kills already off the rip five
14834s kills to their name as a Transformer
14837s team composition we talk about it all
14839s the time Transformers they love their
14841s shiny loot being able to scale very very
14845s well with the higher Rarity armor and
14849s weaponry it essentially allows so much
14852s more value to come out from those
14854s Transformations giving you so much more
14856s power and on top of that just simply
14859s being able to if your ultimates do go
14861s down Transformers has been essentially a
14863s brick wall so many times but if that if
14866s that brick wall starts to get chipped
14867s away out and you've used your ultimates
14869s but you've still got all of this in the
14871s back pocket it becomes very hard to deal
14872s with you but we're heading over here
14874s team 28 they are getting shredded d229
14877s so unbelievably low he does manage to
14879s get heal from his woen grapple away but
14882s unfortunately doesn't come through in
14885s time he does get taken down but they do
14886s go for the trade the trade comes out as
14888s Bon does get taken down the NGC mines
14891s though he's looking to re-engage as is
14894s GG coming in here looking for this third
14897s party opportunity gets the silence onto
14900s the Justina Roy he he oh he sends out
14903s the vertical blue Focus but it does not
14905s connect he's just trying to apply as
14907s much pressure as he possibly can yeah GG
14911s still lurking trying to B their time to
14914s find that optimal third party
14916s opportunity you don't don't want to just
14918s go in guns blazing with no thought in
14921s mind you have to calculate you have to
14924s be ready for anything and if you jump in
14926s if you jump the gun it could be the end
14929s for you and you may be sent back to the
14931s lobby I mean talking about blazing I do
14933s have to talk about the fact that VC with
14936s this Justina and Yodo actually utilized
14938s the Yodo F2 to keep those players logged
14941s into position so they got hit by that
14943s Justina Dash and were not able to avoid
14946s it really lovely stuff getting to see
14948s coming on out the new synergies
14950s available on the table for some of these
14951s newer compositions which because the
14954s newer compositions they're not as
14956s predictable they're not as well known so
14957s when you see that Yodo F2 you're not
14959s really expecting a followup Justina
14961s ultimates coming out instead you're
14963s looking to try and figure out how you're
14964s going to be able to work around the
14966s Yoda's golden Focus axis as we are going
14968s to see GG still taking a lot of pressure
14971s on the backside as we're going to see 28
14974s actually decided to back on off realm of
14977s yangs going going to be starting to
14978s spawn on up as well for those
14979s Transformer teams it's going to be so
14980s important that they go through but we're
14982s going to see a bounty scroll come on out
14985s D szi with that teada does still have
14988s three of those shelves left such a good
14990s ult ultimate locking everyone down
14993s blistering Edge from Cori as well to be
14995s able to provide even more spacing and
14997s keep this pressure up onto 521 you see
15000s that they haven't been able to find an
15001s interception sansi with one of those
15003s other shs making sure that none of his
15004s team are going to get jumped on or
15006s grapple canel as DC has sh the
15009s body oh coming in with the musket shot
15013s managing to steal away that kill very
15016s nicely done in the right place at the
15018s right time but they may have put
15020s themselves in a sticky situation it
15022s might be pretty rough to get into the
15024s safe Zone they were coming in from the
15026s back they were the last ones into the
15028s Zone last ones to rotate oh my Lord Cori
15032s with a huge Parry the turn around the
15034s zipping F1 as well to keep him topped up
15036s but it's not going to be enough I don't
15038s think and unique is going to be able to
15040s take him down with that blue fan in hand
15043s oh another huge Parry coming out akami
15047s catching that Dragon like might the
15048s tamok going up into the sky with that F1
15051s but unique doing exactly the same and W
15054s oh woing sending it to the other side
15056s akame getting caught just buying enough
15059s time so that he can get that ultimate
15060s down but unique a we all know tuls they
15063s can go through each other's sand walls
15065s and it can be extremely difficult to do
15067s anything thing against another tul but
15069s oh a little bit of a an input oh the
15073s grapple may have oh no okay okay he does
15077s get taken down wooing he's clutching it
15079s up with this Dragon like M just doing so
15082s so much damage very well played by DG
15086s yeah really good stuff coming through
15087s from di they were also able to get sansy
15089s up in the meantime as well which is
15091s absolutely huge the fact that they're
15093s able to recover from being in the middle
15095s of multiple teams and taking a fight in
15097s the when they'd already invested those
15099s ultimates is absolutely insane it really
15101s does go to show how clutch this team can
15105s be as we're going to see those Rumble
15106s Yanks start to spawn on forward ug not
15109s in a position to be able to put
15111s themselves into it however as they are
15112s currently being HED by hlg the king
15116s incredibly low and as a result it's
15117s actually going to be VC versus klaa this
15121s time it's not Roy he he versus Rosemary
15123s it's going to be Roy he he on that
15125s Justina gets caught out by the fan down
15128s has to use the Justina ultimate
15130s incredibly quickly K going to answer
15132s with it toer ultimate to try and Zone
15134s the Yodo away and Roy he he is able to
15136s find the freeze onto the teada gorgeous
15138s stuff coming on through tries to find
15140s the second but he able to use the sh to
15142s be able to get on out of it Roy he
15145s looking to try and find the dash but
15146s he's out of them he goes into the Shelf
15149s he gets locked in the middle of the
15150s Dreadful whale and he goes down oh my
15154s that was a true decimation die section
15158s oh K with that Dreadful whale just doing
15162s so so much damage locking those players
15165s of VC down and just denying any
15168s opportunity very nicely done by K and
15171s they're able to pick up that realm of
15173s Yang win get that gold weapon get that
15175s purple armor and get that buff to go
15177s into the skirmishes of the mid game and
15179s speaking of skirmishes we have a fight
15181s going on here between drg and team 28 oh
15185s huge peel coming in from that dragon
15187s like whooing he is popping off this game
15192s he's absolutely putting in work he's on
15195s the chase as well he's not letting team
15198s 28 get away with this he is on the hunt
15201s the jaw is clenched he's got the teeth
15204s locked in the dragon like here it is
15207s again sansy with the lift oh 21 he's so
15211s unbelievably low the Viper all coming
15213s out with the Tessa as well the
15214s turnaround from Team 28 the Tessa Al
15217s doing so much locking them down
15219s preventing them from being able to
15220s immediately look for a disengagement on
15222s that Viper Al but drg they aren't done
15225s yet they're fighting back Cori with a
15227s huge dragon slayer into the followup and
15230s drg turning it back around oh my oh what
15235s a fight what on Earth drg and team 28 at
15241s each other's throats I mean the last
15243s time we saw this team they came so close
15245s to walking away with the MVP l
15247s Championship back in season 2 but my
15249s goodness they are coming Incredibly
15250s Close to lifting the trophy here at
15251s Jacob but that's the point we're going
15253s to have to Circle back to cuz again
15254s we're going to see a fight go down hlg's
15257s hand with that t High transformation
15259s immediately going to pop it as KLA back
15261s on off swapping to the range projectiles
15264s to try to just pressure this monk into
15266s dropping the ultimate early Han without
15268s that bigger Health cool is now going to
15270s be vulnerable you unfortunately gets
15273s grieved by the rock into the first state
15276s charge of the kar it's a one versus two
15279s you immediately going behind the monk to
15281s make sure that he's going to be able to
15282s find the blue connection as Peak is able
15283s to throw the focus as a result that's
15285s the spacing you want to see in trios
15287s where even if you were able to throw one
15289s Focus they're not able to Parry behind
15291s them and they're going to be able to
15292s find the connection very nicely done
15294s there ooh we have try hard and go over
15297s here being lifted into the air by drg
15300s the Dual halberts from this man have
15303s been performing so unbelievably well a
15304s huge Parry coming out from try hard but
15306s unfortunately is not able to get that
15308s followup Stuck In The tul Wind ski gets
15312s taken down try hard gets shoved oh gets
15315s the grab onto woing but it's not going
15317s to do all that much for him and he gets
15319s juggled and taken down I think there is
15322s one member still remaining indeed hero
15325s he's just getting juggled he can't do
15327s anything about it and there it is ntl
15330s getting eliminated from this game
15332s unfortunate to see but oh heading on
15334s over IDC versus KL a IDC have already
15339s taken down one member of K but K does
15342s have that vilon Bird's might to keep
15344s them alive keep them in the lobby lexon
15347s narrowly avoiding this dagger horizontal
15349s trying his best to move around but it's
15351s so unbelievably difficult he does get
15353s that ultimate off though the one
15355s opportunity the
15357s shove oh my the blender coming through
15361s and IDC stuck on The Buttery rocks into
15365s the blender absolutely a obliterated
15368s that's another team utilizing the speed
15370s that the R&B on the hits gets thrown out
15373s to set up these other players drg I
15375s think have been doing the best job at it
15377s we've actually seen wuin coming in with
15379s those dual hits throwing out the R&B to
15381s set up his teammates for things like the
15384s Dragon Slayers off of that speed because
15385s they're stuck in the Stager and not able
15387s to anticipate the Parry as Roy he he
15389s trying to find the freeze are we going
15392s to see any of the follow up Roy he
15394s having to use the freeze shell coming
15396s out of that Ina defensive gets parried
15399s doesn't have the free shell up back this
15401s time to be able to recover and look for
15403s that reset and the Justina goes down n
15406s HQ now with the teor ultimate has one
15408s shove left looking to try and find the
15410s finisher will be able to connect onto
15412s VC's Minds as the Yan is going to fall
15415s down to the musket coming out from n HQ
15418s and we're starting to see even though
15420s we're seeing the development of these
15422s new compositions they're a little bit
15424s hard to actually put into motion because
15426s of how knew they are both the Yodo
15429s ultimate was up and the jusa ultimate
15431s was up and the Yan ultimate was up but
15434s it didn't find any value no
15435s unfortunately not one thing I'd like to
15438s note is that this toada he had his
15442s ultimate he had one shove left but he
15444s had about 60 to 70% of his Al ready to
15447s go in the back pocket once his ultimate
15451s expired that is that is absurd truly he
15455s must have managed to get a firefly
15457s whilst in that engagement I did see Roy
15459s he he did something very smart he used
15462s his ultimate and then dashed over to the
15465s Firefly spawn which is right next to
15466s that tree he grabs it to try and just
15470s maximize the value from his ultimate but
15472s unfortunately he gets caught in that
15474s Dreadful whale and has to has to cancel
15477s the ultimate so that he can use his
15479s combo breaker on that F ability
15481s otherwise the teammates of that player
15484s would have just been able to follow up
15485s on the Dreadful whale not only does it
15486s do so much damage but it keeps you in
15489s place it prevents you from doing
15490s anything unless you have a combo breaker
15492s it's so so devastating to a team the
15495s followup is absolutely insane it's the
15498s doino effect too cuz they wanted to use
15500s the Justina r with the freeze to set the
15502s Yoda Al up but because it has to be
15504s canceled out early well the Yodo has to
15506s try and stick the ultimate and find any
15508s form of damage but because you're not a
15510s vibrant you don't have that justena
15511s freeze to CC these players in position
15513s it's incredibly easy muscle memory
15516s practice
15517s for these players to be able to dodge
15519s around the Yoda all exactly exactly and
15521s it looks as though K might be going
15525s uncontested in this realm of Yang oh and
15528s as I say it I spawned it into existence
15532s ladies and gentlemen we have fpx coming
15535s in to contest klaa K is extremely good
15539s they are extremely stacked right now but
15542s fpx they are looking pretty healthy as
15544s well I saw a gold weapon there and here
15547s we are sand siphon versus the
15549s Transformers oh a huge amount of damage
15551s going out onto water the Yuan of this
15554s team comp he does have the gold spear
15556s but he's not going to be able to use it
15558s if he gets taken down the jabbing coming
15560s through doing a bunch of damage by fbx
15562s Jiao opts to go for that monk ultimate
15565s as his teammate does get taken down Don
15567s King he's looking to try and find this
15569s Resurrection if he is able to do so this
15571s might be a salvageable fight another dra
15573s another grab coming through onto Kau Don
15576s King though he's getting pressured
15578s constantly the tur oh he's just trying
15581s to tank it through and water's up he
15583s gets up off the ground Don King get up
15586s bro get up let's go and he goes for the
15589s general transformation he's up and about
15591s he's swinging that spear he's trying to
15593s peel for his teammate ya who gets caught
15595s in the Wisp but not all that much damage
15596s comes through they're trying to follow
15597s up K you he takes a considerable amount
15599s of damage the ultimate does not have oh
15602s he might have a shove oh no he does he
15604s does not have any shoves left over it's
15606s just the purple tinge from the F1 a huge
15608s Parry coming through K getting turned on
15611s cxz taken down it's getting so
15614s unbelievably close the the general is
15616s out of transformation Don King so
15618s unbelievably low you trying to do
15620s something about this jabbing the jabbing
15621s is just so devastating water oh and he
15625s gets the Parry Peak gets the beautiful
15627s Parry onto water this the 180 parry and
15631s K come out victorious in this realm of
15634s Yang oh my goodness what a roller
15636s coaster
15638s it looked like jabing would deny the
15639s resurrection because water evaporated in
15642s a span of seconds but he's able to be
15645s brought back up you're able to stick the
15647s res because it's still inside the karumi
15649s ultimate too so even if the jabin
15651s connects it's not going to cancel that
15652s te out the second your usan is brought
15654s up he doesn't have to worry about damage
15656s coming through he can hit the ultimate
15657s he can immediately get the health
15658s generation the problem is they had to
15660s throw the ultimates out of cycle because
15663s of that pressure coming through from the
15665s Yan the second that he's up and as a
15667s result they don't have the Yan to try
15669s and peel away all of the aggression
15671s coming through on both the karumi and
15673s the Tian High who without those
15674s ultimates are incredibly vulnerable
15676s especially to that jabbing jabbing one
15679s of those soul jads that is incredibly
15681s punishing it comes out so quickly and
15684s unlike some of these purple souls or
15685s even legendary soats there is no change
15688s in animation right you can anticipate
15691s things like the soul slash you can
15692s anticipate things like the Phoenix First
15695s jabbing it's literally a 50 50 on
15697s whether or not you're playing into it
15698s and if you're bet on the wrong side
15701s unfortunately you're going home in a
15702s body bag absolutely it is if there's a
15706s if there's a difference in startup
15708s animation it is a minute difference
15710s because I've been playing for a I've
15712s been playing for a very long time and I
15714s you can definitely see the difference
15715s between let's say for example velocity
15717s Untold on the nunchucks and the normal
15720s horizontal blue Focus charge but jabbing
15723s it's just there there's no difference
15725s and it's so unbel believably punishing
15729s if you aren't ready for it if you don't
15731s happen to guess or just predict you can
15734s just eat a a crazy amount of damage one
15737s of the big big things about jabbing
15739s because it's a single hit blue focus it
15742s is a just one instance of damage if you
15746s eat that hit no matter if you have a
15749s combo breaker whatever it might be
15751s you're not going to avoid any of the
15753s damage with multi-hit attacks multi-hit
15756s blue Focus attacks you can avoid a chunk
15758s of the damage with a combo breaker but
15761s jabbing no no no it just oh it just
15765s shreds you it just knocks your teeth out
15768s and if you try and anticipate a jabing
15770s coming through and you flash right at
15772s the wrong time staff is one of the most
15774s punishing weapons to look for that wrong
15777s Parry because it's able to go for the
15778s one two into uppercut confirmation into
15780s extension is talking about extension UD
15782s looking to extend off of this Viper
15784s ultimate Yahoo did he time it did he
15786s avoid
15787s he didn't avoid the stun he didn't avoid
15789s the test the V1 comes through and
15791s connects onto the monk however they
15794s don't actually follow up any form of
15796s damage on the TN High ug in full
15798s disengage at the moment might get
15801s crapped up if they're not anticipating
15803s these monk hands coming through from
15804s behind yes they are in a bit of a
15806s they're in pretty good terrain to try
15809s and avoid this monk pressure they
15811s they've managed to make it over to this
15813s building I think that may have been
15815s their objective and they can smell the
15817s desperation oh my what a Parry coming
15820s out from Xiao unfortunately he's not
15822s able to follow up there but what a
15825s beautiful Parry it does slow down the
15827s fight the velocity the velocity I
15829s spawned into existence yet again jaia oh
15833s the scale Rush from the rafters eating a
15836s huge amount of damage replying with the
15839s Dual halbert's horizontal blue lifting
15841s SS into the air just whiffing this
15844s grapple just a tiny bit Too Short the
15847s desperation is kicking in Xiao he knows
15851s he needs to find a soul Bloom to cleanse
15853s this Yang depletion or he will just fall
15855s over in about 40 seconds he needs to
15858s find it but there's another team lurking
15860s in the wings KLA they found a fight they
15864s found a fight they're looking to engage
15866s on fpx with the Viper all coming through
15869s ug the king he's taken down no wuen Port
15872s available Xiao he's stunned up but it
15875s doesn't matter you gets the Parry but no
15878s punish he tries to find the soul Bloom
15881s instead but it looks as though it may
15882s have been it may have cost him his life
15884s in the end oh no he goes for the monk
15887s transformation he has 12 seconds but no
15889s time he has no time even if he's able to
15891s find a soul BL he has to drop the monk
15894s ultimate otherwise he's not going to be
15895s able to pick it up xia who he knows the
15898s rtings on the wall he goes for the
15900s transformation to get the health reset
15902s and deny a potential kill as fpx go down
15905s that is so so unfortunate they had the
15908s kills they had the positioning and the
15911s second that they want to move forward
15912s and take the soul blim they get snapped
15914s onto with that Viper ultimate that just
15916s holds them in position and they watch as
15918s the soul blin vanishes in front of their
15920s eyes it's very unfortunate that K was
15924s lurking around here ready for the third
15926s party they're able to come in at the
15928s opportune moment and take full advantage
15930s of the situation speaking of drg are
15934s looking to do exactly the same thing
15935s they do have Al Advantage here they
15938s aren't they aren't really winning out in
15940s the range weapon battle just yet they
15942s haven't created a huge Advantage just
15944s yet but they are looking to engage sansy
15946s grappling on to cxz getting a huge trade
15949s but it's getting traded back sansy off
15951s to pop the ultimate the tul alss come
15953s out both teams trade away to toada so
15955s unbelievably low he does get his
15957s ultimate up in time the PSAL damage
15958s coming through the zipping is keeping
15960s them alive you he's trading back and
15962s forth the blue Focus the soul shat are
15964s doing so much you getting popped on the
15966s zip Al oh a huge Parry coming in onto
15969s wuin but it doesn't matter it's negated
15971s and it turn around K cxed just making it
15975s onto the roof of this building sansy
15977s trying to follow up trying to chase down
15978s you but he's not able to do so he's not
15980s able to close the gap every single
15983s member of these two teams is just
15984s dancing around this building ballerinas
15987s going up and down trying their best to
15989s create any kind of opening it looks as
15991s though there might be a third party xcg
15993s looking at top the cliff they have the
15995s altitude they have The High Ground they
15998s send down the tul they send down the
15999s range weapon projectiles but they're not
16002s able to close out a kill and neither
16004s team get taken down just yet pette and
16007s ple and exit stage left because you are
16009s not wanting to stick around after that
16012s fight it went on for so long and
16014s honestly MVPs for both of those teams go
16017s to the zip the fact that we saw those
16020s teas fall incredibly low but we see the
16023s peel come through with that zip able to
16025s land the F1 and keep everybody topped up
16028s and the fight going long enough that
16029s they have to worry about the third party
16031s 's SS has to worry about the fact that
16033s he's alone he was looking to try and
16035s play for survival towards the edge of
16037s the Zone but he gets spotted out K
16040s cleaned that one up however prioritizing
16043s that kill means that DG walk away with a
16047s moris blessing for free and oh please
16050s tell me that's not mortal
16052s Defiance I think it is I think that in
16056s indeed it is Mortal Defiance and I think
16058s the only way we can really tell here is
16060s is if they go low and it procs no no no
16063s no you can actually tell now because I I
16066s correct me if I'm wrong if you Happ to
16067s remember one that that that meets this
16070s criteria there is only one melee resist
16074s Soul Jade that has a charge I think that
16077s might be the case so I think that indeed
16080s is Mortal Defiance a lovely Jade to be
16084s picking up at this stage of the game
16086s when you're fully stacked up going into
16088s the end game we well speaking of we are
16091s going into the end game and you know
16093s what that means it is time to pull out
16095s those cannons it is time to pull out
16097s those bows and you're just looking to
16100s try and create any opening that you can
16102s you looking around he's got that gold
16104s pul sword on the tocada that is going to
16107s do so much damage if he's if he's able
16111s to create an opening without without
16114s risking all that much able to come in
16115s with a thir third party that is going to
16117s be huge lxh oh so close he gets caught
16121s by the tul Quist but unfortunately for
16124s the opposing team they weren't able to
16126s shred his armor oh k a gate keeping
16129s they've got control of The High Ground
16130s all of these other teams are going to
16132s have to push into them and especially
16133s when you have like you pointed out that
16135s legendary P sword getting to play around
16137s these Cliffs which normally would
16138s unfortunately make it a lot harder for
16140s some of those combo extensions perfect
16142s setup for those scale rushers to be able
16144s to come through and that legendary pul
16145s to just chunk your health down as
16148s quickly as possible as we have nine
16150s players in the lobby a little bit of a
16153s lull time as everyone just Stoops fixes
16155s those cannons and starts to try and keep
16157s applying the fire tck for as long as
16159s possible because that's going to push
16160s these Zips into overc committing
16162s abilities and that's when we're going to
16163s see all of the action kick off
16165s absolutely but look at this final Circle
16169s we yet again have three teams left alive
16174s ladies and gentlemen xcg only have
16179s 0.1% win percentage or prediction
16183s curiously I'm not I don't know they're
16186s in a pretty good position right here
16188s they've only got three kills though oh
16190s it's for the MVP okay okay that makes
16192s much more sense yeah yeah though brain
16195s fart there it does make sense they don't
16197s have all that many kills I mean K on 18
16199s te yes exactly yeah the they're about to
16203s drop a 20 b what what on Earth if they
16207s manage to get that that is going to be
16210s so unbelievably good for them drg though
16213s they are oh my Lord they are absolutely
16216s getting obliterated by these cannon
16218s shots from above forced to use that tul
16221s ultimate and the teada ultimate just to
16224s stay alive it looks as though the
16225s zipping Al also was popped to try and
16228s peel so that they could stay alive K now
16231s getting pressured a considerable amount
16232s U sends out those those swings from the
16235s gold pul he does have his ultimate
16237s activated but he's got not got all that
16239s much health and armor to play with he
16241s needs to try and find some way to heal K
16244s cxz he's doing an extremely good job of
16246s peeling for his teammates to buy them
16248s enough time so that they can heal up
16250s sansy he's getting juggled into the Zone
16252s The Mortal Defiance coming in he stays
16255s alive he's still going he's still
16257s chugging away but Peak he does meet his
16260s end at the edge of the Zone niq he does
16262s manage to get over there and pick up
16264s that Soul Bloom topping himself up K cxz
16267s though oh a huge jump Parry the turn
16270s around into the long handle weapons have
16272s another one he's keeping himself healed
16274s up oh my the the mercilus coming through
16277s he's turning it around he does have
16279s ultimate available he's going to be able
16280s to throw it out at a moment's notice
16282s sansy oh
16285s my jabbing doing so much work in
16289s xcg obliterating the lobby here it's
16293s just K it's just just it's just it's
16296s cooked ladies and gentlemen
16298s xcg I like I said you know they're in a
16301s pretty good position they're sat at top
16303s the cliff you know they've got The High
16305s Ground they're going to be able to drop
16307s down and dictate the pace of these
16309s fights and they do exactly that but they
16312s no they won't take the MVP but they do
16315s get that D for themselves getting that
16316s multiplier speaking of MVPs k a oh my
16321s okay we have to talk about cxe ooly
16324s booly ladies and gentlemen to talk about
16327s cxe I cannot wait to see how much damage
16329s is going to come in off of that staff
16331s and I love the fact that we've moved
16333s away from everyone sort of revealing
16334s their hand prematurely in terms of those
16337s Soul Jades everyone sits on the fact
16339s that they have that Dreadful that
16341s merciless Havoc everyone wants to try
16343s and conceal the fact that they have
16344s those Soul Jades of Destiny so that
16346s people aren't anticipating having to
16348s fight into it when the fight actually
16350s kites towards the outer edges of the
16352s Zone it's only the Mortal Defiance that
16355s kicks into to save drg sans's life
16359s because he gets juggled up and he stays
16361s there for so long that I think we
16363s actually cycle through two usages of
16366s that zp F1 from his side that was that
16369s was insane Insanity so many parries
16373s going back and forth that's a m he's got
16376s eyes in the back of his head that L
16378s handle weapon sap keeping him alive for
16381s so long but unfortunately it wasn't
16384s enough K they are going to take this DB
16387s they got a a chunky number of kills and
16390s a chunky number of points to get
16392s themselves higher and further in the
16395s lead if they can if they can get enough
16398s points today they can they can relax
16400s just a little bit you know it's not
16402s about you know being able to get a lot
16405s of points and get themselves up high on
16407s the leaderboard it does provide them a
16409s little bit of a cushion so that if they
16412s have a bad game it's not the end of the
16414s world they don't have to go into that
16416s desperation mode where they they're
16418s desperately trying to find as many kills
16421s as possible create as many situations
16424s where they can get kills that typically
16427s they wouldn't want to go for you don't
16428s want to force bad situations you don't
16431s want to force trying to engage on a team
16434s and that is exactly why Yang depletion
16436s is so so so devastating because it
16440s forces you to try and like create an
16443s opportunity when it's just something
16445s that you would never do without that and
16447s then you have to commit to it even if it
16449s starts going wrong even if another team
16450s shows up and you've burned all of your
16452s ultimates in the first opening of a
16453s fight and you still haven't been able to
16454s find a kill you have to continue just
16457s committing to that chase committing to
16458s that fight and you don't have the
16460s information if they start disengaging
16461s you have to keep the chase up you can
16463s run into another team entirely and
16465s something that we have to talk about is
16467s the fact that these teams because
16468s they're getting so aggressive so quickly
16470s off of the bat everyone dropping in very
16472s clustered spaces even if they find
16474s original kills in the open opening Zone
16476s they don't get to leave the the yank
16478s blooms they don't get to leave the soul
16480s blooms because they are so worried that
16481s another team is going to roll on up and
16484s take them and when you're playing
16485s Immortal war and you leave free Soul BLS
16487s out in the open for something like a
16489s Tessa to come along when she only needs
16491s 55% to actually be able to utilize that
16494s ultimate that's a risk you're not
16495s willing to take so it puts even more
16497s pressure on being able to win out those
16499s R of Yanks yeah absolutely you need to
16502s go in with a plan if you're going into
16505s the realm of Yang desperate and you
16507s don't you're not all that geared up you
16510s you're you're still on the blue armors
16511s you only got the blue weapons in the
16513s back pocket you have to pull something
16516s out of a hat you have to be able to come
16518s away with it as the gang depletion is
16520s just it just forces you to do silly
16523s things that you don't want to do like
16525s fpx yeah like jumping in and just just
16529s Nob brain w key UGA Booga you know the
16532s suboptimal and then there you go you
16535s don't want the sub that's for ranked
16537s okay that's that's tker in trios in
16539s ranked you know yeah I think that's
16541s another huge reason why Sans siphon was
16543s able to rise the promise over
16544s Transformer because if you have Yang
16546s depletion you have the sustainability
16547s and you also have the peel Avenues
16549s available on all of your hero kids right
16551s to can shove and create space to much
16553s can use the Wisps to be able to block
16555s the bodies and make sure you're able to
16556s scoot on over and pick up the Bloom as
16558s opposed to the transforma if you want to
16560s use the TN High to try and absorb all of
16562s that damage and fret you have to cancel
16564s the ultimate out early if you want to
16566s actually be able to pick up the bloom
16568s and it just means that you're again
16570s really vulnerable in comparison to sand
16572s siphon that gets away with that problem
16574s for pretty much
16575s free absolutely one thing I did want to
16578s touch on today is that recently well not
16582s all that recently now it's been a it's
16584s been a little while but coins so in your
16587s glyphs you can choose a number of
16589s different things to take you got your
16591s rage per second perhaps your stamina per
16594s second Etc one of the really useful
16596s glyphs that you can utilize is dark tide
16599s coins for per second allowing you to
16603s generate coins over time but we will
16606s touch more on that in a moment here we
16608s are with the scoreboard of this game and
16612s K with the 20 bomb absolutely decimating
16617s this Lobby
16619s 30.5 points explosive stuff explosive
16623s stuff coming through from them you you
16625s also have to remember as well these are
16627s downsized lobbies these are not like the
16630s lobbies of old where we have 16 teams in
16632s one lobby no we have 12 so the fact that
16635s you're able to get anywhere close to a
16637s 20 bomb is absolutely insane and look at
16641s these numbers oh my goodness they are
16644s absolutely insane cxe coming in with
16647s 36,000 damage and Duncan I would bet a
16650s good 17,000 of that is going to be off
16652s staff actually maybe J how Alberts cuz
16656s he was doing a lot of work with those
16657s too yeah no absolutely he was doing a
16660s lot of work but oh look at that the
16664s healing on the zipping matching up
16666s pretty nicely with that damage you know
16669s you might think oh zipping is a support
16671s she doesn't do damage no ladies and
16674s gentlemen zipping is able to Output a
16677s considerable amount of damage as she has
16680s that extra Dodge and is able to stay
16682s topped up very very often but here we
16685s are are looking at the total leaderboard
16688s the total standings so far for the day
16691s we have IDC currently sitting in the
16693s bottom position ntl Lobby 28 521 hlg CD
16697s G all in the bottom half of this
16700s leaderboard ntl and IDC definitely need
16703s to try and find some way to pick it up
16706s and try and try and accelerate their
16709s their fights their games they've been
16710s caught in really rough positions they've
16712s been caught in really really unfortunate
16714s situations
16716s but how is that not happening to the
16718s these other teams there is something
16719s that needs to click for them to
16722s accelerate and try and match up with
16724s these teams xcg though oh my they are
16727s sitting at top of the leaderboard 67.1
16729s and ug 59.3 yeah pretty they've got a
16733s safety cushion they're going to be
16734s really happy they have a safety cushion
16736s and you're dealing with a lot of curve
16737s balls right A lot of these players
16739s especially the CN side haven't really
16741s got to experience that professional side
16743s of nus since we last closed and vpl
16746s season 2 there has been a huge off seon
16748s for meta to be developed and redefined
16751s and it's still being redefined as we can
16754s have a look at how exactly this last
16756s match was defined there it is drg
16759s deciding to face tank through the damage
16762s of that ban R drop a lot of the time we
16764s don't talk about how detrimental it can
16765s be that a player has to be so far behind
16767s to actually set it up that a lot of the
16769s time teams just immediately run in and
16771s take a fight three versus two before it
16773s can come in as drg is coming with some
16776s abute gorgeous he absolutely insane
16780s stuff now we get to see that Dreadful
16782s whale it feels like it's not a nraa
16784s blade Point Lobby if we don't see
16785s Dreadful whale and the lock down of
16788s players being caught in the middle oh my
16790s the blender right here as they drop down
16793s lexon doing a really good job of staying
16796s alive long enough for him to be able to
16797s get that ultimate back up but then the
16799s Wisp coming in from
16803s cxz into those dual halberts just
16806s shredding them xcg here dropping down
16809s from that High Ground look at this
16811s dictating the pace of this fight able to
16813s come in as the third party and literally
16815s just look at this cannon damage they
16818s don't even have to fully commit into
16820s position one to truly get any of these
16823s kills they get so much value from having
16825s just simply been in the optimal position
16827s to start with I was right and there it
16831s is 1,000
16834s 17.3 3,000 damage ladies and gentlemen
16838s from that stuff with that jabbing
16841s merciless havoc and long handle weapon
16844s and the Juggernaut as well look at the
16847s cannon too the cannon with the
16850s 10,000 that's something that a lot of
16852s these teams were actually using as well
16853s especially in the final Zone when those
16855s zones were collapsing in especially if
16857s you have that teada right you have the
16858s flam breath you come in on the backside
16861s you pressure with the cannon you force
16863s them into using so much of their stamina
16866s that they just do not have anything left
16867s in the tank to be able to dodge away
16869s from the fur and shelves and they eat
16871s that damage but also because their back
16872s is so close behind the Zone they go into
16874s the corruption tick damage and still
16876s don't have the stamina to be able to tap
16877s Dodge back into safety no absolutely one
16879s of the lovely things about the recent
16881s Soul Jade change which I have to say I
16884s love I love the recent Soul Jade change
16886s I think it's one of the best changes
16888s they've made good job but we'll touch on
16891s that again in a moment you know the
16893s drill ladies and and gentlemen answer
16896s for Treasures the if you haven't been

16924s eye out on the chat and in your Whispers
16926s as you will be selected at random from
16929s the list of people who put your answers
16931s into the chat don't be the guy who
16933s misses out on the rewards because you
16936s went to the went to the L or you went to
16938s get a drink sit there just for a few
16941s minutes all right little little bit of
16943s patience is going to go a long way but
16945s you know what we'll be going a little
16946s bit away for just a matter of moments
16948s we'll be right back after
16954s this
16983s for
16992s [Music]
17009s [Music]
17013s te
17018s [Music]
17036s [Music]
17043s for and welcome back ladies and
17047s gentlemen after that short break Shai in
17051s the night oh my in person it's so
17054s beautiful and we're here in Shanghai as
17056s well w we can we can we can we can see
17059s the trophy it's not it's not the actual
17061s trophy it's also not to scale no it's
17063s not to scale it's not this big you know
17065s I could not want to try and fit that
17067s through airport security oh no that
17070s would be a that would be a tough one
17072s statement P though to have in like the
17073s front hall of the house
17075s like true yes that would be very cool
17077s here is my lovely trophy look at
17081s that um but yes we do we did have that
17085s quick little video from Team 28 to know
17088s she talking about how the key to Victory
17090s is hard work and Frank diligence I could
17094s not agree more and I mean I think
17096s everybody who is here in this tournament
17100s has been doing exactly that putting in
17101s all the hours that they can here we are
17104s again you know the drill we've been
17105s doing it for a day you know if you don't
17107s make sure to go into your client on the
17109s website so that you are able to put your
17112s prediction for the following game which
17115s of the following two teams will achieve
17116s the highest score in this match will it
17119s be a IDC or B ntl na versus EU ladies
17124s and gentlemen who is going to come out
17126s on top make sure to get your predictions
17127s in that you have a chance at winning a
17131s uh some cheeky goodies for yourself
17133s including the Jak upup Banner out oh
17136s skin sorry Spar
17138s skin there aren't that many Banner skins
17141s and they do look very nice but hey back
17145s to the action what are we going to be
17147s seeing here do you think we're still
17149s waiting to see a lot of those fa picks
17150s come through we've seen a lot of
17152s Transformer a lot of sand siphon a lot
17154s of Viper with Tessa and we do still have
17158s the old hero Point rule our solo hero
17160s rule has been changed up entirely you
17162s still have to play five different Heroes
17164s per day but you've also got all of the
17166s pool changes coming through where if too
17168s many people pick the hero that you want
17170s in the phase before you actually don't
17172s get the opportunity to use it in trios
17174s however it's still the same old 12 Hero
17177s Point rule with the first time you use a
17179s hero it's absolutely free but the more
17182s times you lock that hero in the more
17184s expensive it becomes and as a result you
17186s have to be so careful about when you
17188s want to utilize these top meta
17190s compositions absolutely you have to be
17193s very decisive and you have to have a
17195s plan and I'm sure many a team does
17198s including KLA these absolute UGA boers
17203s they came away W rocking they're vibing
17206s after that game just now they are very
17208s happy with themselves sitting very
17211s comfortably I would I would have to say
17213s but yes I I'm hoping that we will see a
17216s little bit of fer because barer as a lot
17220s of you may know has recently received a
17223s few changes which have increased her
17225s power and potential they've made it so
17227s that once you transform once you change
17230s forms within the me to that turet form
17233s you're able to shoot or you're able to
17235s act much much faster so if you get that
17237s stomp if you get that knockup when you
17240s transform into turret mode you're able
17242s to immediately swing around and shoot
17244s that player and then that inherently
17247s would then allow for follow up from
17249s teammates barer did originally have
17252s quite a bit of potential and she did did
17254s see a decent amount of play back quite a
17258s while ago now we haven't seen her for a
17260s while that was what January this year
17262s really I can't remember it was been it's
17264s been a while it's been a while but yes
17267s it would be nice to see her come back
17269s and see a little bit of a change in the
17271s meta you know we've definitely seen a
17273s little of a little bit of a change with
17275s uh Yoto Justina Yuan very interesting
17279s composition I've heard talks of FIA
17281s being involved we're going to have to
17283s wait and see but maybe there might be
17285s something extra spicy that we may in
17289s fact see a hady
17291s pig this is something that we on the
17294s Caster side we have been having a lot of
17297s in-depth discussions about where we
17299s think hardi could potentially slot in T
17301s trus I think he has really good syy with
17303s karumi but again the problem becomes how
17305s do you disengage how do you cover for
17308s yourself once the ultimate is removed
17309s you're not going for uan you're
17311s definitely not going to be touching zip
17313s toada or to mulch and I really do think
17316s it's going to be just waiting for the
17317s next hero to come through as I say that
17320s wait
17321s what no way do you know how long have
17324s you been waiting for a fin dog to pop up
17328s and you get
17329s two
17331s no no how do you do me like this did
17334s Duncan's on the floor by the way I will
17337s I will give you the visual audio Duncan
17339s is on the floor his head is in his hands
17341s he uh he got baited into thinking he was
17344s getting h and a t composition H how can
17348s you do me like this big dog you hover
17351s the TKA cuckoo you hover the honey and
17355s then you just swap oh my i' I it's like
17359s honestly you see a kid and they get told
17361s that like Santa Claus isn't real that
17363s that was the expression on your face it
17366s just shattered the moment that they
17368s moved away oh I'm so sad that would have
17372s been I I I
17375s I I have no words I have no words that
17376s would have been incred you're going to
17377s have to find your words cuz we're
17379s heading into the second last game of the
17381s day oh my well yes we are going into our
17385s second game second last game of the day
17388s rather with xcg going over down to uh
17392s the city of Tang all on their Lonesome
17395s in that hot Drop that gold area that
17399s high tier loot Zone they're going to be
17400s able to loot up a considerable amount
17403s and then potentially look to go hunting
17406s create themselves a nice little looting
17409s into a hunting path but it looks like
17411s we've got a bit of uh ugly googliness
17414s going on over in Plume Castle we have
17417s IDC VGC and I didn't catch that last one
17420s all very very close together in Plume
17422s Castle but before that we are heading on
17424s over to klaa and 521 you already taking
17429s down pampy pampy didn't look like he was
17431s in a good situation you no armor but he
17434s does does not care he is straight in
17436s there 521 have already lost two members
17439s and it looks as though it's going to be
17440s a
17441s fast fast trip to the soul alter ladies
17445s and gentlemen they already take them
17447s down but hey the action does not stop CD
17450s G scrapping it out against
17453s drg they're able to take them down
17456s having lost a member they are going to
17457s be able to get a res now and again more
17460s action team 28 against hlg over here
17464s little bit of damage coming out hlg
17466s cuckoo so unbelievably low so so low he
17470s was one Health and he only has small
17473s Health pots to be able to heal himself
17474s up unfortunately oh
17476s myo that was a lot of damage and hlg PP
17480s y gets obliterated by that greata double
17484s charge and cuckoo going to follow suit
17486s to oh it's going back and forth so much
17489s damage but it looks as though team 28 is
17492s going to be able to come out on top here
17493s but k coming in for the third party they
17495s are ready to rumble they're ready to go
17498s they are going in grappling in hlg Han
17501s he does have his ultimate available but
17503s it might not be enough the Parry the
17506s turnaround parry and you gets oh a PO
17509s sword to the face ladies and gentlemen
17512s but it doesn't look like he's going to
17513s stop just yet he goes in for the grapple
17515s gets the jump Parry but the cada
17517s ultimate is able to peel it away peel
17519s away that pressure just for now Han
17521s though he's doing an incredibly good job
17523s of staying on the move K trying to hold
17525s him down the P sword applying so much
17527s pressure whilst on the move one of the
17528s best weapons to do exactly that but the
17531s stone form is not enough to keep him
17534s alive do you know what I have the utmost
17536s respect for the fact that hlg that
17538s teammates who had taken down early stuck
17540s around did not go for the salty run back
17542s CU you can actually see a St alter was
17544s incredibly close but they do decide to
17546s go for the safest option they don't go
17548s for the salty run back they make sure
17549s even if they do lose those REO JS early
17551s on they still have the opportunity to re
17554s regroup as a team and not get third
17556s parted right off of the altar as it's
17558s going to be K coming with another kill
17560s onto 28 guitar as we're going to be
17562s moving over towards plumed VNC mines on
17566s that Viper already utilizes the ultimate
17568s goes for the red flash but fpx already
17570s in the gold Focus coming off of those
17573s nchu m going to go down to the long shot
17576s in the back coming through from D Queen
17577s gets the one two into the jump
17579s horizontal follow up and Roy he he
17581s follows suit Oho an fpx coming away with
17586s a few kills to their name five kills
17588s under their belt and a crazy amount of
17591s cash in the bank as well water sitting
17594s on 22,000 dark tide coins Don King on
17598s 15,000 they're going to be able to head
17600s over to that that Rift dealer and get
17604s themselves some lovely little soul jads
17606s a few slots perhaps maybe gamble on some
17608s weapons for those of you who are not
17611s aware in tournaments in competitive
17613s games we we are playing Immortal war and
17616s one of the key differences from Immortal
17619s war and your regular Herald's trial
17621s ranked game mode is that you're able to
17624s buy weapons you're able to buy random
17628s melee and range weapons of Epic Rarity
17631s from the shop and I mean you might get a
17634s purple crossbow you might get a purple
17636s Katana but you're still able to roll for
17640s those weapons if your team just doesn't
17642s have anything if you youve been sitting
17644s there with white weapons and you've got
17645s a whole bunch of cash you're able to go
17647s and maybe get something good maybe a
17649s stuff maybe maybe a fan or a Poore
17652s perhaps well it doesn't matter what
17653s weapon you get right it's the loot tier
17655s that you want especially if you're
17657s running the teada and the ti High CU T
17659s High his ultimate damage and health
17661s scales off of his own kit unfortunately
17664s for the teada it's a little bit harder
17667s it scales off of the entirety of the
17669s team so it really is vastly important
17672s for these players to try and get as much
17674s coins as possible and it's another
17675s reason why we do see a lot of these
17676s players running discount as K are going
17678s to be running this Moon Bane directly
17680s into imperial K La cxe coming in with
17683s the right click on that P sword try hard
17686s having to use the monk ultimate looking
17688s to try to provide a little bit more
17690s space for the rest of his team and also
17691s have that larger health bar to be able
17693s to tank through all of the damage from
17694s the Moon Bane as he actually uses that
17697s larger hit box of the monk form to be
17699s able to block the damage coming through
17701s from klaa and allow the rest of his team
17703s to disengage but now he's out of the
17704s ultimate he's vulnerable ntl are a
17707s little bit too far away to intercept
17709s it's immediately going to be sko who's
17711s getting jumped on by Peak the karumi
17712s able to use the te to be able to
17714s reposition but it goes directly into you
17717s and try hard gets punted Away by the
17719s teada
17720s shs this is not looking too good but
17722s they are being they are able to turn it
17725s around somewhat the Yan ultimate has
17728s been popped by Hero he was put under a
17730s decent amount of pressure there oh a
17732s huge slam com coming in onto cxz and to
17736s Peak doing a considerable amount of
17737s damage another one being traded back
17739s onto try hard he loses all of his
17741s remaining armor it looks as though ski
17744s is still holding on to that karumi
17745s ultimate they aren't dead just yet they
17748s still have some resources available hero
17751s is trying to get as much value out of
17753s his ultimate as possible but he may have
17755s bitten off more than he could chew he
17757s jumped in with his ultimate having just
17760s oh just a second left and ski he tries
17762s to jump in he tries to get in there to
17765s get that peel get him healed up with the
17767s karumi ultimate but it wasn't enough and
17768s he gets taken down try hard getting a
17770s huge beautiful Parry it looks as though
17773s Hero has been told that it is a winnable
17775s fight he gets sent straight to the soul
17776s alter so that he can get the res of try
17778s hard he's parrying people left and right
17780s ski so unbelievably low he does get
17782s taken down hero having just come back
17784s from the res back from the dead only had
17786s white armor and he too is been taken
17788s down extremely low try hard he's trying
17790s his best is true to his name he's doing
17792s as much work as he possibly can a hero
17794s now getting pressured by you you still
17796s has these shoves and he gets taken down
17798s there's very little he can do but try
17799s hard the huge grab from AF far I don't
17802s think it's going to be enough to save
17804s this situation unfortunately he does
17806s have his res ski also in that Soul form
17809s he's going to be able to go away and res
17811s alongside his teammate but KLA going to
17814s be able to pick up ntlc now coming in
17817s with a huge Viper ultimate looking to
17819s land onto drg however they're not able
17822s to use it to save Z Wan takes him down
17825s we're going to see the T High holding on
17826s to the ultimate the karumi healing
17828s Circle actually coming through to allow
17830s drg to hold that for aggressive position
17832s even with the Viper ultimate coming on
17834s out knowing they're going to be able to
17835s out and even if the fight gets CED away
17837s to a different section of matad they're
17839s going to be able to use the recast as
17841s brandor on that Tessa has no choice but
17843s to try and find any Salvage of the
17845s situation with the V1 from the Tessa and
17848s it's not to be drg off of only the
17851s karumi ultimate able to find the fight
17853s win and now we're going to be seeing
17855s everyone playing towards the outer edges
17857s of the no Al Zone Tess coming on through
17860s xan going to use the snap to come in
17863s with that Viper V1 looking to try to
17865s stun some of these players not going to
17867s be able to find any connection onto the
17870s stun however and now has to be careful
17871s with K's U moving into the forward
17873s position has that purple staff Jaan
17876s cannot afford to get scooped up into the
17877s gold Focus no definitely not he cannot
17880s risk it as xan he's still putting on the
17883s pressure he's trying to find an
17885s engagement ooh the Tessa ultimate I
17887s don't think it did in fact connect onto
17890s a player or at least they've manage to
17892s cleanse the tether very quickly xiaan
17894s getting taken down extremely low he gets
17896s lifted by that staff fortunately the
17899s wuen has had his alt placed down he's
17903s ready to press that button and he gets
17905s his teammate out out of danger very
17908s nicely done
17909s ohug I think they ped into the purple
17912s Bush too so it actually obscured whether
17913s we can teleport one it might have you
17915s are right we do have the snow storm
17919s lurking around just at the edge ug have
17922s managed to uh get themselves a little
17924s tan they've gone to that fire you know
17926s they've gone to a little fire pit and
17927s they have that buff that prevents them
17928s from losing their ultimate charge within
17931s that snowstorm the NGC have managed to
17934s do the same as well so they are able to
17936s lurk around in this area and keep their
17939s ultimate it also just appeared on the
17942s screen ntl try hard was able to secure a
17945s rebirth charm for hero so that he can
17948s pick up his teammate and this is
17950s something that I started talking about
17951s and I wanted to touch on uh later on is
17954s that dark tide coins per second
17957s alongside discount I might add is an
17960s extremely powerful tool extremely useful
17964s glyph setup so that let's say you do get
17966s taken down relatively early you have
17968s these coins ticking away constantly
17972s regenerating and your able to
17974s potentially buy these rebirth charms as
17976s long as they haven't already all been
17978s bought up you're able to go away and
17980s pick them up if on the other hand you
17983s don't die early and you simply manage to
17986s get a cheeky like a a few kills you know
17988s three maybe four nothing too crazy but
17991s you have these dark tide coins just
17993s taking over again you're able to go to
17997s the dark tide dealer the dark the the
17999s rift dealer and get a considerable
18001s amount of value out of that money with
18003s the random weapons that we talked about
18005s at the beginning of the game as well as
18007s the soul J Soul JS being such an
18009s important factor in a lot of these
18011s fights and one of the differences as
18013s well in Immortal war is that the soul
18015s Jades the random Soul Jades are
18018s guaranteed to be of Epic Rarity minimum
18021s which is super valuable but here we are
18023s pampy taking a a considerable amount of
18026s damage trying to Grapple away from this
18029s team who do have this buff they're not
18031s looking to take this fight but they are
18032s being forced into to this situation
18034s caught between a rock and a sandstorm
18037s pampy he does have one shove left he
18039s goes for the Parry he sends out the
18041s shove gets the slam with the vertical
18042s blue focus on the P sword he's trying to
18044s stone form he's trying to avoid these
18046s light attacks he's used that F1 but it's
18048s not going to be enough and he does get
18049s pushed up against this fence and taken
18051s down
18053s Mia also doing extremely extreme a lot
18056s of work with this gold fan I might add
18059s gold fan with teada is devastating it
18063s does dagger too oh it was it it was a
18065s dagger it was a dagger and he went
18067s grabbed that crafting Hammer up over
18069s toward ruins and changed it to a fan I
18072s think GG actually were able to win a
18073s realm of Yang for free oh really because
18075s the realm of Yang spawned on up and we
18078s saw two teams running V million Birds SM
18080s I believe actually GG just killed the
18082s other team that had that bu and GG now
18085s walking away with that million bird SM
18086s and for realm of Yang must have been
18089s able to get their hands on a legendary
18091s dagger as a result as with going misy
18094s going incredibly low both the Tessa and
18096s the Viper making it incredibly hard for
18098s them to be able to work around those two
18100s chains of Stager and it really is
18103s absolutely awkward when you're running
18105s into that Tesa into the Viper especially
18108s if you're trying to dodge around either
18110s because the Tessa gets to punish this is
18112s why the Synergy is so good normally the
18114s way that you actually run away and deal
18116s with that Viper ultimate is by blocking
18118s line of sight entirely but Tessa Al goes
18121s through line of sight you can throw it
18123s on one side of the building and still
18125s find the connection so if you use the
18126s Tess Al first the Viper can then Chase
18129s in with the ultimate and because you're
18131s Enchanted in the V1 you don't have the
18133s opportunity to play around it no
18135s absolutely having that value come
18137s through you can just throw your Tessa
18140s ultimate through terrain so so valuable
18143s oh it looks as though sansy may have
18145s bitten off a bit more than he can chew
18146s he jumps right in sends the blue and
18148s gets parried eating a whole bunch of
18150s damage his karumi is keeping him topped
18152s up keep keeping him healthy with that
18155s damage reduction we've got the Viper Al
18157s coming out
18158s nowar he's trying to find the stun he's
18160s not really able to to get any stuns here
18164s as whooing does manage to iame through
18166s the stun but Cory does get taken down
18168s he's trying to tap Dodge away from these
18170s grabs he ooh he almost he almost gets
18174s slammed into the ground by that monk but
18177s fortunately the monk does get shredded
18179s down by the repeating crossbow from the
18181s third party and he avoids taking a
18184s chunky bit of damage from that double
18186s grab hlg Han though very happy with
18189s himself coming in picking up a cheeky
18191s kill not too
18193s shabby Sans he's got one
18196s Vitalia he doesn't have the heals to
18199s play in towards the zone as long as he's
18202s going to be trying to get away from
18204s hlg's attention the problem is that H
18207s they know that one of those players is
18208s still around and you can actually see
18210s they're going to be holding that
18211s position Sandi might be able to actually
18213s stick the revive but with only one
18216s Vitalia I don't know if he's going to be
18217s able to survive the corruption take
18218s damage slowly chunking him down no it's
18220s going to be difficult they might be able
18222s to do it they might be able to make it
18224s if they chain the resurrection and
18226s constantly resurrect each other as they
18229s go down after GG yes
18233s exactly absolutely but here we are just
18236s to the the northwest of of plume xcg on
18242s The Chase Roy he he extremely low having
18245s been taken down and the wuen from VGC
18248s teleporting them out to get them out of
18250s danger Roy he he does manage to get that
18253s Shield pot off or he found an armor swap
18255s something along those lines they get the
18257s stun as xan wasn't able to get his Viper
18261s Al off earlier he he did go second
18264s meaning that he got stunned up just
18266s before his managed to pop but thankfully
18269s the wuen is able to come in and teleport
18271s him out oh no oh no
18275s mines just managing to avoid the Tessa
18278s ultimate there doesn't get caught up in
18280s it Roy he he drops down with the F3 on
18283s the Yoto sending those horizontal blue
18286s focus is trying to peel but he gets
18288s taken down it oh again now VC just
18292s falling apart here unfortunately just
18295s really really rough situation NQ having
18298s that ultimate up all the time oh you're
18301s joking surely there's no way they get a
18304s second round of Yang but no when we're
18306s talking about that attack on Titan yo in
18308s comparison to Tessa Tessa sits on top of
18311s the food chain because when you rub a
18313s band back into those fights you get to
18315s still cast an ultimate the second the
18317s fight goes back into motion with that
18319s 55% as opposed to the Yodo who has to
18322s sit and wait for the 100 even if she
18324s cancels her all early you're still only
18325s going to be keeping a Slither of Rage as
18328s opposed to the T who just gets a couple
18330s of hits in and can immediately come back
18331s in with the V1 and off of that stun and
18334s opening immediately lock you down a kill
18336s exactly I don't T they got it for
18340s free oh
18342s no that's another legendary weapon for
18346s GG I think it's it's possible that due
18349s to the fact there are so many teams
18351s running that tul Tamal has been a
18353s character that has has been very well
18356s he's been very very good and utilized
18358s for a very long time to secure moris
18361s blessings and quite a few of these team
18363s have just simply been avoiding Yang
18365s completely as they know that there are
18367s these Viper Tessa compositions lurking
18369s around those portals to try and prevent
18372s these teams from going in griefing them
18374s holding them at the portal and trying to
18376s take them down or just picking off one
18378s member and assassinate them so a lot of
18380s these tul teams might simply just not
18383s want to go into the realm of Yang and
18384s look to go for these morrises but at the
18387s same time certain teams are just getting
18389s away just getting away for free just
18392s getting these these gold weapons and
18394s Mystic MIT for free the damage reduction
18396s because then they can roll up onto those
18398s moris blessings and even if they're not
18400s finding a kill they can instigate a
18402s fight so that those tules have to use
18404s their ultimate early to be able to
18405s control the morus blasting and something
18408s unique about the tul ultimate is when
18410s one tul Al you can use your own tul
18413s ultimate to be able to walk directly
18415s through it so even though we have a mast
18417s majority of the compositions in this
18418s Lobby being sand siphon that's not
18420s actually a good thing it's not like
18422s Transformers where the trans you are
18424s you're able to play off of the Dage by
18426s other mon look to try and find those R
18428s grabs off of someone's already slam and
18431s just chunk enough damage down to be able
18432s to translate into a kill yeah exactly it
18435s looks as though I think that was GG with
18438s the challenge Bounty I think it was they
18441s were just sort of lurking around and
18444s they had this challenge Bounty or it was
18445s another Bounty I'm not 100% sure but it
18448s did just pop and I think they were
18449s lurking waiting on the shop ready to
18452s spend that money we got a second snow
18454s storm we did indeed yeah I was going to
18456s say there's a lot of snow on the
18458s Northern side of the map multiple snow
18461s storms these weather effects are
18463s exclusive to hollo but they do for sure
18466s make things pretty interesting as they
18468s can heavily impact anything that goes
18471s onow storms in the final ARS you have
18473s that chill meter and if it goes past 50%
18475s it starts sapping the rage so a lot of
18478s the time we actually see players go into
18480s the corruption take damage to activate
18482s those camp those bonfires and manage to
18484s just live through that chill meter or
18487s everyone actually pops their ultimate
18489s early because it doesn't sap the
18491s duration of the ultimate if you pop the
18493s ultimate it doesn't immediately lower
18495s the duration like something like a teada
18497s or an AOS no exactly it you also can
18500s potentially get lucky just happening to
18502s to walk past one of those little fire
18504s pits there are these fire pits that are
18506s marked on the map on on Holo that if you
18510s go over to you can just interact with
18513s them and it will give you this buff as
18515s you can see right here in fact thank you
18517s fpx they got some smalles they got some
18519s barbecue yeah exactly they they
18522s definitely got flame Breon one of those
18523s cannons exactly they've been cooking up
18526s some burgers but as you can see this
18528s little square the red square with the
18530s sun icon inside of it this little buff
18533s it prevents you from having that debuff
18537s effect occur when you are inside the
18540s snowstorms very very useful if you
18542s happen to walk past one just pick it up
18544s you know you never know the snowstorm
18546s might come in and you might be caught
18548s out of position and not able to rotate
18550s round to a yeah there's a reason to go
18552s into the the weather effect too because
18554s it actually regenerates all of the Tres
18556s in the area when a weather effect comes
18558s through so for all of these players who
18560s are behind in terms of that loot scaling
18562s they've been able to go into that
18563s snowstorm with that campfire buff open
18565s all of those troves stack up so many
18568s coins to be able to go to these dealers
18569s and roll to try and stack and push into
18573s final Zone as ntl oh that is going to be
18577s a lot of pressure coming through from
18579s xcg we're going to see St and Sky Pillar
18581s come through from here but he's not able
18583s to use it to escape the grapple cancel
18585s the karumi does come through they're
18588s running directly into the snowstorm xcg
18590s do not have the campfire buff but
18591s they're still looking to chase no they
18593s go directly over a bonfire they get it
18597s they just manage it xcg they're chasing
18600s them into the snowstorm he unfortunately
18603s he wasn't able to find the confirmation
18605s with that Viper f with the Viper silence
18607s but they do realize that they're chasing
18610s further further into the blizzard so
18612s they thankfully are able to go over and
18615s pick up that fire pit buff so that they
18617s can continue to stay within this high
18620s traffic area we have fpx sitting on top
18623s of the tower 5 to1 lurking at the edge
18626s of the frozen lake X xcg making their
18628s way across we have GG coming up behind
18632s from the the West here as well looking
18634s to rotate sitting at the edge of this
18637s frozen lake so many teams are lurking
18639s around this challenge Bounty oh this
18643s challenge Bounty team ug sitting on the
18645s North side K little bit to the north of
18648s them as well GG potentially here could
18651s actually get flanked by hlg if they get
18655s caught out it could be pretty rough fpx
18657s they're posturing to try and secure this
18659s mors blessing for themselves they do
18661s have that t ultimate available they've
18663s got the Dreadful yeah oh really they
18666s have Dreadful they were showing it off
18667s when they were sitting on that middle
18669s Tower they're going to try and open it
18671s but you can actually seeu taking a lot
18673s of pressure coming through there the S
18675s ultimate he wanted to see whether or not
18676s he would make a way with it for free or
18678s if he had to invest what a Parry coming
18681s through to stop that Phoenix Blast
18683s coming on out from ug it does go through
18685s the tul ultimate and it has griefed so
18687s many players in the past when they've
18688s tried to use that tul ultimate to open
18690s up a moris bling for free very nicely
18693s done not too hasty they don't jump in
18696s immediately they bite their time just
18697s for a moment get that tul Al down once
18701s they realize that there are players
18702s looking at their Direction and they
18704s secure that moris blessing that gold
18707s armor for that teada their front line
18710s their OA o SS o ug one of my favorite
18715s teams I have to say absolute
18719s oers oh how many
18724s that's that's five out of six of OG s
18729s SS's Jade slots that are
18733s gold I'm pretty sure that is Mortal
18735s Defiance as well up there on the right
18738s so ugss he's not going to be going down
18741s without a fight especially with that
18744s gold armor that he's just picked up
18745s especially CU it Stacks with the zip
18747s ultimate as well you can have sedated
18750s soul you can have moral Defiance and it
18751s saves
18753s txh is definitely going to need a lot of
18755s Saving right now taking so much damage
18758s coming through from all of these teams
18759s posturing up to try and control that
18761s High Ground lxh will be able to dip back
18764s behind his wuan wall get that Shield get
18767s that reset and look to try and hold on
18769s to this High Ground which is going to be
18770s Paramount to set xan up on this Viper
18773s drop no absolutely positioning is going
18776s to be very key in this final Zone if
18780s you're able to eventually section off a
18783s little bit of a cliff side not get
18785s caught falling down it as we all know
18788s terrain is one of your biggest enemies
18790s in the r if you get stuck in that
18792s sliding animation you are you could
18796s potentially just get cooked you know The
18798s Buttery rocks nice and buttery you're
18801s ready to go into the pan into the frer
18804s speaking of going into the fry ntl hero
18807s taking a bit of damage alongside ski
18810s getting peppered by these flame bre bre
18812s cannons oh the the butterflies the ice
18816s butterflies freezing ski on the way into
18819s the Zone getting cooked he's forced to
18821s use the karumi ultimate and he's caught
18823s out of position and taken down this is
18826s possibly the worst possible thing to
18829s happen in this kind of situation you
18831s never want your karumi to get taken down
18834s going into your end game if your karumi
18836s stays alive your tianhai and Yan can
18840s always potentially stay alive and get
18842s get re if they get taken down try hard
18845s fighting his time oh I think he's down
18847s to the
18850s Zone by the skin of his did you know
18852s though they they spotted him behind the
18854s building oh did they oh no they know
18857s he's there oh he's on the move I can see
18859s it on the map he's on the Move he's
18860s having to run GG are trying to track him
18862s down we're going to have another
18863s snowstorm starting to hit and I don't
18865s think we have any campfires left out
18867s yeah try hard does go down to the musket
18869s coming through from ug xiaan still
18871s trying hold on to this High Ground does
18874s look like they actually were forced into
18875s using that Viper ultimate to carve that
18877s safe space as hero is not in a safe
18879s space at all he gets spotted out unique
18881s from 5 to1 with the repeating crossbow
18884s proing that Venom tip and ntl are locked
18887s out of this Lobby without a kill once
18890s more it's it feels as though it's being
18894s it's time and time again at the moment
18895s for both ntl and IDC it seems they get
18899s caught in really horrible situations
18903s out when they allour they don't have all
18907s that
18907s many things to play with you they don't
18910s have good armors they don't have good
18913s Jades and they they make one positioning
18915s mistake and they get taken down it gets
18917s fully punished and that's one of the
18919s things that does separate the Chinese
18921s region the all like the CN region and
18924s mbpl environment is that if you do make
18927s a mistake it gets punished far far more
18931s efficiently and far more more often if
18933s you're playing in these other regions
18935s there are going to be teams that just
18936s aren't as fast to pull that trigger you
18939s know they're ready at any moment to pull
18941s the trigger and punish you for the
18943s mistakes that you make well now we're
18945s going to see fpx ding with that
18947s legendary armor looking to try and scale
18949s Rush making sure that he doesn't get
18950s stuck onside those buty rocks K not in a
18952s great position at the moment Duncan
18954s they're position directly in the middle
18956s of all of these other teams they do have
18958s those rocks to drop back onto but the
18960s problem is if they try and drop they go
18961s into U G 5 21 once again with the
18965s repeating crossbow melting Xiao the
18968s difference is water is still on that Z
18971s ping can try and use the F1 to set up a
18973s potential revive if they want to be able
18975s to get that damage carry back into the
18977s mix K going to come in with that purple
18980s fan just trying to utilize how fast the
18982s RMV falls through there we see a
18983s dreadful whe coming through from water
18985s to be able to use the hyper armor to
18988s block the damage onto dqu that would
18989s have canceled the revive but Xiao still
18991s is not picked up and we're going to see
18993s dqu having to invest so many of the
18995s toada shells to actually keep himself
18996s alive oh my Lord he is gone Skyhigh very
19001s quickly losing so much of his health oh
19005s ohug getting ugly sending unique back to
19009s the lobby getting thrown into the Zone
19011s by that long sword doing so much damage
19014s K in the mix the grab coming through
19018s from SS the F1 grab don't blue Focus the
19021s toada ladies and gentlemen you don't
19022s want to get slammed into the ground give
19025s SS a means of coming back into this
19027s fight the tal oh no the toada the shoves
19032s so much damage the Phoenix blast doing
19034s so much work SS able to dip into the
19037s Zone he picks up that soul blo and he's
19038s going to look for this
19040s re oh the scale Rush coming in from K
19044s Peak but they he's getting stuck this is
19046s not the place you want to be this is the
19048s blender ladies and gentlemen if you get
19050s stuck down here you are going to get
19051s taking down SS he's desperately trying
19053s to make it into the Zone the mol
19055s Defiance coming in saving him once again
19058s but unfortunately he is stuck sliding
19061s and there he is ugss getting taken down
19063s unfortunately he's simply not able to
19066s make it through the sand The Buttery
19068s rocks it is simply too much for him oh
19071s my Lord oh hlg falling apart at the edge
19075s of the zone as well H's hand having to
19078s Grapple in towards I don't think GG
19079s actually spotted him I miss you're going
19081s to be going into the Zone corruption T
19082s to be able to pick up that Soul Bloom
19085s and try and keep as much of the rage as
19087s possible eight players left in the lobby
19089s OG is the king playing out of sight on
19091s the tree alexm might have spotted him
19094s out and he's going to have to commit as
19095s hlg's hand decides he wants that free
19098s real estate and decides to move on in
19100s instead GG's miss here coming in with
19102s that legendary fan going to be looking
19104s to do so much damage W and wind will
19107s coming out from on top of the team of 28
19111s they've still got that Tessa ultimate if
19113s they really feel pressured enough to use
19114s it the win F coming on through Throne on
19116s repeat so none of these teams can keep
19119s themselves on The High Ground and they
19120s taking so much damage from everyone
19121s stuck below everyone trying to pressure
19124s in with those grapples looking to try
19125s and land that flame at a fire tick to
19127s keep this team in check but so far no
19129s one has been able to out 28 from that
19131s position oh this terrain is so so
19135s difficult to manage hlg Han desperately
19138s trying to stay alive he's so
19140s unbelievably low he's got no AR and
19143s there okay there it is he does get taken
19146s down ug the king in a very similar
19149s position the fire tick is ticking away
19151s and it looks as though he's going to get
19152s taken down as well by the fire arrows it
19154s seems 28 guitar oh my the tul is the
19160s tornadoes coming in from the tul and
19163s from Mia and another another set of
19166s whirlwinds sending team 28 gum back to
19170s the lobby ladies and gentlemen what a
19172s game same stage different tournament
19175s same GG on holler off game five exactly
19178s yeah you know I was talking to you about
19180s this I said I don't know whether or not
19181s GG are going to be able to set up that
19183s insane dominant position they always
19185s pull on holl off game five especially
19187s with the changes coming through in terms
19189s of the map differentials but it really
19192s does feel like GG just have hollup on
19194s absolute lock they know how to play the
19196s terrain they know how best to equip
19198s themselves with the soldiers to take
19200s advantage of set Terrain in fact of all
19202s of the teams that we see both on the
19204s Jacob stage and also in the mvpl stage
19207s it really does feel like Gigi are the
19209s best at taking advantage of those
19211s vertical final zones where they're able
19213s to come in with those Soul Jades and the
19215s toada shelves and just keep punishing
19217s players as they try and climb to safety
19219s yes indeed unfortunate team 28 were not
19224s able to do the same gum getting taken
19226s down at the very end there guitar as
19229s well getting caught up in that to sand
19232s whsp and just eating the wild wind spout
19235s the
19237s Tornado from the fan one of the new
19240s newly added soul Jades and weapons to
19242s the game woo it is devastating this Jade
19246s I talked about it yesterday I'm going to
19248s talk about it again today the for the
19250s first tornado comes out so so quickly so
19255s fast it knocks you up and then the
19257s second tornado coming in gets that
19259s followup you can potentially look for a
19262s followup from your teammates if you're
19263s playing Team modes or I I'm pretty sure
19266s as well that you can look for a range
19267s weapon followup as well if you're just
19269s on your own on your loome throwing out
19272s those tornadoes left and right one one
19275s one problem with it though which does
19277s get seen sometimes is that if you manage
19280s to if frame Dodge the first tornado and
19284s you're able to get in position to Parry
19286s the second it can be very it can be very
19288s difficult so you don't want to throw it
19290s out too too willing you don't want yeah
19293s you don't want to immediately show your
19294s hand right you want to you want to keep
19296s that fan closed a little bit longer it's
19298s not like Restless Havoc but even if you
19300s keep throwing it out it's still not
19302s going to really be there with the
19303s spacing to look for that par
19305s successfully because you're not going to
19306s be able to close up the distance and
19308s actually deny the weapon from their hand
19310s as opposed to the fan with that wind
19312s Spide where if you are able to close up
19314s the distance it does mean that the fan
19316s does go out of your hand and onto the
19318s ground yes indeed it is not it is not
19320s the same as long sword although many
19323s people have referred to fan as uh SP
19326s long sword yeah just a dagger long sword
19329s as it has so much range and that's why
19331s we saw as well many players opting to
19334s swap the dagger into the fan as it for
19337s example we go teada teada one of he's
19340s still very strong with dagger don't get
19342s me wrong but with fan able to if you
19345s potentially get that initial blue Focus
19347s confirmation with the vertical or the
19349s horizontal you can then guaranteed the
19352s followup after using one of your shoves
19355s going into the followup and then going
19356s for a tech Chase as well or you setting
19358s it up just are so so much damage I think
19360s everyone who's been playing since fan
19363s came out can uh can agree that fan does
19366s a lot of damage yeah it really does feel
19368s like like last month for for fan was out
19371s every TOA that took an MVP on the
19373s Esports stage had a long sour had
19375s Phoenix had hea and again like you can
19378s play off of the fact that you can throw
19379s that R&B on the fan I so quickly so far
19383s that you can follow up those same styles
19385s of follow up with the long sword where
19387s you have that activation of your
19388s ultimate you're able to use the shs to
19390s light stagger your player that you're
19392s running into so they don't have the
19394s opportunity to be able to find the parry
19396s and when you're running fan into long
19397s sword it has a significant advantage in
19400s that the R&V comes out so much faster
19403s than any of the focus stages coming out
19406s from the long sword so if you try and
19408s look for the clanks from just a range
19410s face off fan always comes out on top
19413s absolutely and one little trick for you
19416s for you to try at home ladies and
19417s gentlemen is that with the fan with the
19420s vertical and with the horizontal as well
19422s you can grapple cancel out of the
19425s animation so once you've send that
19427s forward fan out you can grapple send out
19431s the grapple and cancel the return from
19434s the fan one of the one of the ways that
19436s a lot of players will look to Parry fan
19439s users is that they will try and avoid
19442s the initial throw out from the fan
19445s exactly they can jump Parry from a
19447s little bit further away or look for a
19449s shift Parry a Dodge into the the hit box
19452s of the animation and then Parry so if
19455s you're able to read that prediction from
19458s your opposing player with that grapple
19460s cancel you can then look for a look for
19463s a grapple bump or look for the grapple
19465s cancel into a light attack or one two
19468s and then look to try and chase them on
19469s their Dodges very it's nice to see that
19472s we're getting you know different weapon
19473s Styles cuz again you have to remember
19475s fan came off of the bag of dreadful
19478s whale getting that gold focus and you
19481s want to talk about weapon identity it
19483s didn't matter what hero you were running
19485s everyone had Dreadful whale in the back
19487s pocket and always turned into who has
19490s the Dreadful whale on their team how
19492s many can you stack and when the final
19494s Zone closes are you going to be able to
19496s stop people from anticipating that blue
19498s chge so that you can go into the wind up
19500s of the gold and it's absolutely
19503s unpunishable especially with that insane
19505s level of CC stagger on the last strike
19508s oh absolutely Dreadful whale it is truly
19513s Dreadful oh it really is that the fact
19515s that it's gone from purple to Gold means
19519s that it is extremely powerful not only
19521s in solos but also in trios as you're
19522s able to section off a huge portion of
19525s terrain area yeah cuz you used to be
19527s able to plank it with the RMV on the
19529s dagger you yeah you were able to count
19531s Clank the purple with blue as that is
19533s one of its properties but we will look
19535s at that later we are looking currently
19537s at the scoreboard for this game and CD G
19541s with 16 kills to their name first place
19545s with that juicy multiplier managed to
19548s take home
19550s 26.4 points very very nicely done by GG
19554s there are two Staples in Thea Esports GG
19557s will pop off on holl off game five and J
19560s team's action will pop in game
19562s six indeed but following up from that we
19565s have K in second place with 11 kills
19569s 14.2 ug with seven kills xcg with 8 hlg
19573s with seven Lobby 285
19576s 5332 1 Z unfortunately the IDC and ntl
19581s are still lurking on the bottom of the
19583s leaderboard ntl had a decent game it
19586s looked as though they could potentially
19587s pick it up but unfortunately they
19589s haven't been able to do so just caught
19591s in really rough situations but we're
19593s looking at GG right now and look at that
19596s look at that damage it's nothing too
19598s crazy either it's decent damage just
19601s solid solid performance it's consistent
19604s damage this is the thing that GG is so
19606s good at a lot of the time they will take
19608s fights but they'll actually finish off
19610s kills with the ranged Weaponry I would
19612s go as far to say that they are the best
19614s team when it comes to identifying those
19616s low Health players around them swapping
19619s to those range weapons and picking up
19620s The Kill incredibly quickly as I say
19622s that I think you might have picked up on
19624s a point potentially but one thing I did
19626s actually notice there is that that tal
19629s is running
19630s V1 V1 ladies and gentlemen we usually
19634s see V3 which allows you to get your tul
19638s sand wisps by going through the wall and
19641s get them back and throw them out back to
19642s back to back and try and create
19644s opportunities get get those CC's on the
19647s opposing players and allow either
19649s yourself or your teammates to to follow
19651s up but he's running that V1 and he's
19655s he's just he doesn't see the value he's
19656s looking to get that longer ultimate and
19659s keep his ult up longer so that he's he's
19661s able to control space more effectively I
19665s mean we've even seen V2 relatively
19667s recently being used by quite a few teams
19670s but V1 I don't think we've seen for a
19671s very long time do you know that might
19673s explain why GG had the confidence to
19675s take those realm of Yang fights because
19677s you do have to remember even though
19678s there were a lot of tules in the lobby G
19681s she pick up two R of yank fights for
19683s free every single time they have that
19685s confidence because of that change on
19687s their load out for the tal as we can
19689s have a look at why exactly this team are
19691s so confident on this map starting things
19694s off incredibly aggressive or klaa as we
19696s can have a look at GG spawning into Yan
19699s ruins love the loop halfing here as we
19700s go see free get taken for a ride the lmb
19704s on those dual Halas doing so much to
19706s just space the Z ping out of the fight
19708s but frankly you got the teammate there
19709s to be able to peal all the aggression
19711s way absolutely look at this oh he's he
19715s doesn't care drg wooing he's not
19718s bothered by that Viper tether being
19720s attached to his back he is still going
19722s hard sending out those vertical blue
19725s focuses on the staff here we are xan
19728s with this very nice fight managing to
19731s pick up these kills onto GG after they
19734s after they managed to they eliminate a
19736s team they still had that buff so they
19738s were able to stay in the game but they
19739s do get both of those kills this was so
19742s very nice oh ug SS doing work with that
19746s Phoenix blast hea on that cada oh there
19750s we are the the Dreadful whale that we
19751s were just talking about whale where you
19754s just throw it out on the lower level of
19756s the rock phase two so you have your two
19758s teammates up on The High Ground pushing
19760s players into the lower level where the
19762s Dreadful whale has already moved past
19764s that blue charge into the golden focus
19766s and there is nothing you can do except
19768s hope that the ground has a cushion when
19770s you land yeah or potentially throw out
19772s something gold you need something gold
19775s you could if you parry a player
19777s potentially you can Clank it against
19779s that I mean you just needs something you
19782s know something that comes to mind AOS F1
19784s we haven't seen any AOS but that's just
19786s something that came to mind if you
19787s manage to get in there you can do that
19789s however lxm with the MVP for this game
19794s F1 V1 to Mulk interesting very
19798s interesting a 13,000 damage on sword as
19801s well holy that's a lot of damage seven
19804s assists eight kills as well GG on
19807s absolute fire the Synergy between these
19809s players is something else that we really
19811s do have to discuss a lot of these teams
19813s have sort of been broken down and
19814s patched back up and had some of these
19816s players come in some of these players
19818s come out GG has been playing together so
19821s long that they've been able to work on
19822s that Synergy and chemistry that their
19824s communication is
19825s Flawless absolutely not all that much
19828s damage coming out from the cannon but a
19831s lot from the F sword here we are yet
19833s again ladies and gentlemen you know the
19835s drill answer for Treasures answer this
19837s question put your answer into the chat
19839s to have a chance at winning some goodies
19843s from Nora now the question is which hero
19847s will this match's MVP Ed will it be a
19851s taka no B zipping Yin C Tam mulch or D
19857s Viper n make sure to put your answer
19859s into the chat and and to keep an eye on
19862s the chat for when that winner is chosen
19864s at random out of the list of
19866s participants you will be messaged you
19869s will be added in the chat and The
19870s Whispers so that you have a you're able
19873s to uh actually get those goodies don't
19875s be that guy I mean that's got to be one
19876s of the easiest on so far today we
19878s literally showed the answer a good five
19881s seconds ago said you know what maybe you
19883s can be a zing and you hit that F1 and
19885s you tap Dodge back into getting that
19887s answer but make sure that you really are
19889s spamming that answer in in chat because
19891s you're running out of opportunity that
19893s was game number five we have one last
19896s opportunity for all of our viewers to be
19898s able to interact with all of the
19900s community going on that means one more
19903s answer for Treasure after a game one
19905s more prediction question in game yes
19908s indeed don't be don't be missing out on
19911s these Treasures it only works while it's
19913s live so if you're watching it later on
19915s unfortunately obviously there's time
19916s difference but if you are an early bird
19918s and you've managed to to wake up early
19921s or if you're just the night out and
19922s you're staying up very late to watch
19924s these games I know I would be sacrifices
19927s we make for the Cosmetics sadly we can't
19931s enter but you know what I would not
19933s rather be anywhere else than right here
19935s truly I completely agree I would
19940s shangai I can't wait I haven't met all
19943s the players but I I I plan to I I did my
19946s rounds yesterday I had a very fun time
19950s pictures with all the players very I'm
19952s very jealous I want to meet them all and
19955s I'm sure I will get the chance to but
19957s yes for now we are going to be going to
19959s a short video
19961s and we will be back very shortly for our
19964s final
19966s game um I actually didn't know about 521
19970s until someone had told me their original
19973s name last season team 521 is such an
19977s aggressive team I mean they come from
19979s the SAA region everybody knows this is
19981s one of those regions that absolutely
19983s loves to pound the wpy definitely bring
19986s a a special kind of energy to the game
19989s to the
19993s [Music]
20009s lobby
20014s 521 definitely a team to watch out for
20016s but specifically uh unique because
20019s unique qualified for both trios and
20021s solos there's only three players that
20025s have qualified for both solos and trios
20027s for the J cup so that's adk's ran um try
20032s hard and unique so is it somebody we
20035s need to pay attention to what do you
20039s think
20045s [Music]
20062s [Music]
20069s uh
20076s [Music]
20085s for and coming from a region that is so
20088s hyper aggressive being your team's shot
20091s caller and the support so you have a
20094s broader view of what's going
20099s on
20106s you know you have to keep your teammates
20107s alive while they're running it down just
20110s straight head like head first into teams
20113s getting ugly booly you know you have to
20115s keep them alive you have to keep them in
20117s check hey heyy come back come back stop
20119s chill you
20129s know
20145s [Music]

20168s [Music]
20178s getting ooly booly you finally managed
20180s to do it you got it into the official
20183s broadcast and you know what we're
20184s getting ready to head into the very last
20186s match of trios day one for the official
20190s the ra of Blade Point J cup 2023 and
20193s there's been a couple of surprises
20195s especially from some of these team
20196s performances no they're definitely has I
20200s one thing I just wanted to mention I
20201s think I saw 521 playing tar zero band is
20205s there a
20207s possibility are you really going to get
20209s burn twice
20212s hlg I love you and I hate you right now
20214s I'm not going to
20217s lie you pick both Haddie and TKA with
20221s zipping you hover them both they they
20224s they dangle it directly exactly get
20227s super excited you fill my heart with joy
20231s and then you rip it away from me how
20234s could you do this your trle wailed right
20236s through true very true um but here we
20239s are with another prediction to enter
20242s this prediction you have to go through
20243s the client to the website to be able to
20246s secure your picks to this question which
20248s of the following two teams will achieve
20250s the most kills in this match if
20253s identical the one with the most damage
20254s deal will win will it a b NGC or B 521
20260s make sure to get those predictions in
20262s have a chance of winning some Juicy J
20264s cup goodies don't miss it's the last
20267s time too at least for today you get the
20269s opportunity to do it every single day
20270s that this event does won every single
20273s match but it is one last match and that
20276s means one last opportunity for these
20278s teams to work around those hero points
20280s but something else that we're going to
20281s be working around is our social media
20284s handles you can find all of the
20285s information on how to follow in the rck
20287s of Blade Point as well as making sure
20289s your Twitch account is connected cuz I
20291s would hate for you all to be here
20293s spending hour after hour with us on
20296s Jacob and find out that your account
20298s wasn't linked and you don't get any of
20300s the goodies as a result I mean you're
20301s bound to be enjoying the show just as we
20304s are we're having a great time casting
20306s we're having a great time being here in
20308s Shanghai but of course you don't want to
20310s miss out on some free goodies some free
20312s Cosmetics take into game no one would so
20315s uh yes make sure to get your account
20317s linked to Twitch or whatever platform it
20320s might be that you can secure the good
20322s that'll come up into your mail in game
20324s in the client once you have claimed them
20327s on WE but enough of that it's time for
20331s the game six what have we not
20334s seen bar exactly we haven't seen we
20338s haven't seen far H Haven seen Hardy
20341s time well technically okay no don't give
20345s me see Hardy I in game 5
20350s Seconds no so I do Envision we will see
20354s F at this tourn with the Buffs that
20356s we've already talked about we will
20358s definitely see I I'm not sure about this
20361s final game there are going to be some
20363s teams that I mean it's possible so here
20366s are two schools of thought the first of
20368s those who are sitting with top the
20370s leaderboard very comfortable having
20372s accumulated a considerable number of
20373s points taking away some of the risk you
20376s know allowing them to potentially
20379s experiment with certain compositions
20381s that they've been cooking up in the lab
20383s you know bar uh howy what have you
20386s whatever it might be they might bring
20388s something out to experiment or they
20391s might uh on the other hand look to try
20393s and save it save it as a surprise you
20396s know true something spicy for finals or
20400s for a few the last few games of yeah
20403s exactly so we're going to have to wait
20404s and see though we're going to be finding
20406s out reasonably shortly I would Envision
20409s but one thing I would like to see though
20413s V3
20415s oh I still think it's okay I'm I'm going
20419s let you sit on your box and you can
20421s pitch this to me okay B3 just C now it
20424s functions in a similar way to Tessa
20426s Tessa having her ultimate available to
20428s her at 55%
20430s allowing her to take a lot of a lot of
20433s rage but not only that initial rage
20435s allowing you to get a lot of value out
20437s of it off the rip so if you're on a very
20439s aggressive team you can look for an
20442s aggressive early game Hot Drop
20444s opportunity to jump in just get ooly you
20448s know you've got your ultimate up ready
20450s to go as Justina or Tessa and you can do
20454s a lot of work with that and because it's
20457s a mortal War because scaling is so
20460s important you're able to transition that
20464s those coins that you get that currency
20466s that you receive from getting those
20468s early kills because another key
20470s difference between Immortal war and
20471s Herald's trial is that when you actually
20474s get a kill you don't just get the money
20477s that they had on them you get given
20479s money so especially with first blood as
20482s well first Blood gives a little bit
20483s extra you know a little extra some some
20485s so if you're able to secure those early
20488s kills you're able to get that snowball
20491s rolling down the hill you've managed to
20493s shove it down the top of the peak and
20495s you can start running behind it and just
20498s keep throwing punches and keep adding
20501s more to the biger the big snowball
20505s that's rolling down the hill all the way
20506s to endgame so with that works quite
20511s nicely we just did
20512s it with that Justina is able to not only
20516s secure a very good performance early on
20519s in a a hot Drop situation but because of
20522s the fact that you can run so much rage
20524s on her as she is she's very happy being
20528s stationary when you use the ultimate
20530s you're standing still you have the
20531s damage reduction you have that gold
20533s Focus you're able to stand there and
20535s throw it out and now the freeze duration
20538s on this ability on justina's abilities
20541s all got buffed for trios they now freeze
20544s Transformers for a longer duration that
20547s includes fer so because of all of this
20551s it now creates more opportunities more
20554s potential to take down these meta
20556s competitions you know what I'm really
20558s sad we haven't got to see sea Z true I'm
20563s not surprised though yeah I think they
20565s might be holding onto that pick for a
20566s little bit of time see I'm not sure if
20568s they are I think that they may have put
20570s it into the cover they may have put it
20572s at the top shelf colle collecting a
20575s little bit of dust as Tess oh not sorry
20577s Z received quite a few nervs true her
20581s fire damage got nerfed the actual damage
20584s on the empowered fire chain wave what
20589s have you got reduced
20591s so and also actually another thing I
20594s almost forgot was that when you're in
20596s your F ability when you're in that sort
20598s of that I don't know ghost form so to
20601s speak where you're able to move
20603s around but you're not how you're not
20606s like you can't be pulled out of it you
20608s can't be hit until you act they changed
20611s it so that if you get TC to get crowd
20613s controlled by something like a
20617s jusa tmy whisp Viper ultimate whatever
20620s it might be it immediately pulls you out
20623s of that state and making you vulnerable
20626s so we I don't know perhaps we will
20628s perhaps some some teams cook something
20630s up but yes we we're not seeing it right
20632s now that's for sure I I think it makes
20635s sense that a lot of these teams are
20636s trying to play as safe and consistent as
20638s possible right you want day one to be
20641s good for you you don't want to come out
20643s of day one and have the pressure and
20644s stress of having to pop off multiple
20647s games on day two because that's going to
20649s play Havoc into your team's mental cuz
20651s we're not going directly into trios
20653s tomorrow we cycle back into solo so that
20655s little bit of L time if you have a poor
20657s performance that's going to eat away of
20659s players yes indeed it's also possible
20662s that you might not play the day after
20664s tomorrow because this is only the first
20667s day there are three groups so there is
20670s an alternation it's a little bit of uh
20672s it's possible that you might not play in
20673s two days we have a whole group of teams
20676s not playing today you know your DCP Q
20679s your ID te exactly we've got a whole
20683s bunch of teams that aren't even playing
20685s for this so we're going to have to see
20687s but for now we are going to be jumping
20690s right in to our final game of the day
20694s our first day of Trio's J Cup group
20698s stage
20701s I love
20702s saying I know it it does carry that sort
20704s of momentous AA indeed it does right
20707s it's it's very prestigious as we're
20708s going to have a look at where these
20709s players are going to be dropping no
20711s surprises a lot of these teams aiming
20713s towards those Rift dealers as quickly as
20715s possible to be able to steal away those
20717s early Moon Bane charm purchases and take
20720s it away as a win condition from their
20722s opponents but also give it to over
20724s themselves as that opportunity in case
20726s things got a little bit a r in terms of
20727s third party arrivals drg's wuin going to
20731s be running with that Viper alongside s's
20733s Tessa it's going to be interesting to
20735s see how exactly this team is going to
20737s interact with the Sans siphon
20738s composition a little bit to their side
20740s as oh k k already down two we are going
20745s to see a huge Dragon Slayers interesas
20747s come through from cxz inside that tul
20750s ultimate but it's not going to be enough
20752s to turn the tide of the fight and K
20755s immediately losing all of those rebirth
20757s charms indeed we did have a sneak peek
20760s at ntl over there they they seem to be
20763s just a little Calm before the storm they
20764s picked up a few armors but this is the
20766s storm right over here drg whooshing
20769s already being taken down hlg Han with
20772s that staff trying to create openings and
20774s a beautiful jump Parry connection onto
20777s Ki he almost gets the full juggle but it
20780s doesn't matter he takes him down and it
20783s looks as though drg might be going to
20785s the soul alar and that is indeed the
20787s case hlg picking up three very nice
20791s kills for themselves but VC they're
20793s lurking around they've spotted them out
20796s and a huge ultimate coming in from mines
20799s beautifully done beautifully placed from
20802s VGC mines oh the zipping managing to
20806s keep Han alive for the moment mines he's
20809s trying to find the Parry he's trying to
20811s find that Parry but it doesn't matter he
20813s doesn't get the connection oh my w the
20816s Tessa ultimate coming out saving them
20818s from death that was so unbelievably
20821s close as Bon and mines getting taken
20823s down so so low they're trying to jump
20826s back in the Viper Al is coming out as
20828s Bon can he stay alive just long enough
20831s the Tessa F coming out as well too BB
20834s gets stunned up are they going to be
20835s able to burst him down it doesn't look
20836s as though they are going to be able to
20839s do so and he gets that zipping ultimate
20842s popped and there it is hlg surviving
20846s this third party that has to be so
20848s frustrating in the Viper all connects
20851s but you're not able to kill the zip in
20853s time for the ultimate to kick in and
20855s save them speaking about saving them GG
20857s actually was dropping towards Shadow
20859s Jade mines picked themselves up a b r
20861s incredibly early on used it incredibly
20863s early on but it did not save them in the
20865s fight they lost two of their players off
20867s screen so it's going to be interesting
20868s to see how exactly they're going to be
20869s bilding back into this Lobby especially
20872s because all of that momentum that they
20874s just had on game five's holl off
20876s suddenly has been sucked out of their
20877s sales yeah no that's uh it's not what
20880s you like to see but uh what having a
20883s little look over here theg they've
20885s managed to find o a purple gr sword very
20889s nice that's all you need ladies and
20890s gentlemen especially off of a Tessa no
20893s with a Tessa it definitely is very very
20895s useful Tessa is very good at keeping
20898s people off her with this F ability that
20901s is a combo breaker in itself and then
20903s also gives you the fox fire effect which
20906s has these these little these little
20908s fiery orbs circling around you for a
20911s second or two that if you do get hit
20914s again when you're nor in a focus State
20916s you get staggered by something it will
20918s then knock the knock people back within
20921s a small radius so you can keep people
20923s off you very effectively and on top of
20925s that if you manage to find a stun a a
20927s charm with your ultimate you're able to
20930s do a considerable amount of damage with
20933s a heavy weapon looking over here
20937s K in the top top left the typ top left
20941s of the map North Northwest over here one
20945s of the very popular looting areas once
20948s you've been taken down once you can go
20951s over here there's a decent amount of
20952s loot there's a decent amount of money as
20954s well a lot of teams opt to go over here
20957s once they've been taken down once in a
20959s Lobby can be a very nice little spot but
20962s it's very secluded so you you might not
20964s find all that many people for a while
20966s what K they were banking on they picked
20968s up a Rebo J and they got that player
20970s back into the mix cuz they were rolling
20973s without one of them is GG rolling
20975s without those rebu JS Sans siphon not
20978s doing great at the moment in terms of
20980s that loot load out that de not even on
20982s the purple scaling of the ultimate is
20985s IDC Z has got purple hbert purple armor
20989s brandor already in the purple State as
20992s IDC are able to find a stash key open it
20996s up this does paint a Target however on
20998s the map because everyone is going to
21000s know that that has been opened and
21002s they're going to come calling because
21003s they want what's inside absolutely and
21005s it also looks as though IDC Z has a
21009s bounty on his head but it doesn't look
21012s as though the Threat Level has increased
21014s even just a little bit the bounty
21016s hunters must be quite a distance away
21019s from them for the moment it looks as
21021s though IDC are going to be able to get
21023s this stash get all of this loot
21025s uncontested for the moment Z is taking
21028s his turn to go into the stash randor and
21030s lexon have already already picked some
21033s of the things up picked it clean y z you
21035s can have the scraps well here comes 5 to
21037s one who are coming for that team like we
21040s said getting to see that stash has been
21042s open they can I look to try and track
21044s the team down and take the fight they've
21047s got that Tessa they've got the Viper and
21049s if things do take a turn for the worst
21050s they're going to have the W and teleport
21052s they may well actually be the ones with
21054s the bounty on Z's head which is the
21056s reason why Z has that purple armor so
21059s that he's going to be able to survive
21060s the pressure coming through from the
21061s team that can keep a track of his
21063s whereabouts exactly tul also very
21066s slippery very hard to hold down as your
21069s f is very very good it has lots of
21072s properties that in fact allow you to Ife
21074s frame through certain things a very nice
21077s little bit of tech with tamul f if
21080s you're able to time it at the correct
21082s moment if you've been if you've been
21085s Charmed by Tessa or you have the Viper
21087s tether on you can time it to a avoid it
21089s oh Yin getting a beautiful Parry onto
21091s brandor but it doesn't look as though
21093s it's going to be all that oh
21095s no oh they so so nearly take him down
21100s but Yin does get taken out of danger by
21104s his wuen did they
21106s just grapple straight over the top and
21109s not no surely they saw them surely I'm
21113s sure surely right I don't think they
21115s want to take the engagement on the drop
21117s yet they know that they're there because
21118s that VI ultimate is still there I mean
21120s they do have the the teada AL though
21123s pampy ooh pampy getting locked up by
21125s this Tessa Z might be in a bit of a
21128s tough situation here no it looks as
21130s though this is a pretty good situation
21131s for them to be in Z is going to get
21133s stunned up but they have that zipping up
21134s they have that te Al to try and keep him
21136s alive but it's not enough the crossbow
21138s coming in doing so much damage melting
21140s his health bar Yin double jumping into
21142s the grapple trying to stay alive his
21143s teammates looking to follow up now lexon
21145s and brandor trying to do as much as they
21147s can the the P sword it's really slow but
21149s it does a lot of damage if he's able to
21151s get the connection he might be able to
21153s do something but it doesn't look as
21154s though he's going to be able to do so
21156s and Tesa Al is going to lock them up and
21158s they get taken down it's not just the
21161s test Al it's the fact that Yin swaps to
21163s that fan and just continues to make sure
21165s that the pul does not get the opening if
21167s you want to be on the sidelines and come
21169s in with the charged right click and do
21171s as much damage in the short of time of
21172s possible you've got to get it past the
21174s R&V on the fan and you can just keep
21177s charging it to that 0.9 St and throw it
21180s and as a result the portal gets
21181s absolutely no value they tried so hard
21184s to keep Z alive but sadly even with the
21187s zip sustainability the damage from that
21189s repeating crossbow just meant the fight
21191s was done yeah no they had the right idea
21194s they knew the plan I think they were
21197s just caught in a bad the bad it wasn't
21200s the best terrain right they could have
21203s as opposed to trying and to lur around
21204s the Rocks just a little bit behind if
21207s they had managed to get on on top up on
21209s top of the cliff and then drop down
21212s afterwards they might have had an easier
21214s Avenue to come in and peel for Z once he
21217s does get stunned but unfortunately it is
21219s what it is I do think that they had
21221s their reses available so they aren't out
21223s of this game just yet but we're heading
21225s on over to the realm of Yang and N HQ
21228s just getting juggled the long sword into
21230s the focus slide just getting oh all of
21233s his armor shredded
21235s down and ntl trying to create an opport
21239s Unity ski getting taken down extremely
21241s low hero as well having used the tul
21243s ultimate doesn't oh n HQ getting a huge
21246s Parry read onto tryhard try hard taking
21249s his turn back though with that long
21250s sword gets that Phoenix
21253s blast off of the shove oh and isq he
21256s changes Focus he goes onto hero he's
21258s trying to find an opening but he's got
21260s that tul F tul whsp to keep him alive
21263s get him into the air hero and ski trying
21266s to collapse oh no ski gets taken down
21270s out of the air caught by the fan and try
21272s hard as well he gets caught up on that
21275s tocada F1 grab and it looks as though
21278s it's over for this realm of Yang
21280s hero he jumps up into the air tries to
21283s use the tamul F but it's not enough
21286s speaking about not enough this fight is
21288s not over we head into the second round
21290s of Yang and get to see Team fpx going up
21292s against 5 21 the pord immediately
21294s shredding akame as well as that Katana
21297s coming in with the follow up damage
21299s incredibly low doesn't even need to use
21303s any more of the ultimate to be able to
21305s find the fight win returning to that
21308s first realm of Yang that we saw yet
21310s again the point is proven fan is just a
21313s better long SW try hard was trying to
21315s come in on those Sidelines with that
21318s Phoenix PL that we've talked about it is
21320s synonymous with teada in the past
21322s because of the Stagger potential set up
21324s off of your ultimate as well as being
21326s able to peel for your team in the round
21328s of Yang and look for those lines to play
21330s defensive but it gets thrown out a
21332s little bit too often it gets read into
21334s and it's either parried or immediately
21336s clanks with the R&B of the fan indeed it
21338s is after the long sword alongside its
21342s base damage but also the damage on
21344s Phoenix blast and hea all being reduced
21347s quite a while ago now I think it all got
21350s nerfed so now with the fan being
21353s introduced to the game doing so much
21356s damage I think the need to be an
21358s equalization of damage potentially to
21361s bring long sword back into the meta but
21362s we're going to have to wait and see Yin
21364s a huge jump Harry sends the punish back
21367s over to lexon as the tamul wind would
21370s have prevented him from getting that
21371s follow up lexon so unbelievably low it's
21374s a rematch the bloodbath coming in he's
21377s trying to get the stun and he does get
21379s it lexon taken down 5 to1 even though
21383s they have the Yang depletion they have
21385s found IDC to try and fight and they do
21387s take down but both lexon and brandor Z
21391s somehow has managed to find an escape
21393s he's grappling away he's trying to put
21395s as much distance as he can yeah he's
21397s only got two down to one if he manages
21400s to break line of sight he might be able
21402s to put enough distance as looks as
21403s though he may have done just that he's
21406s about to enter a small small collection
21409s of housing a little bit of little broken
21411s down ruins of houses maybe he finds an
21414s Avenue Escape but we're going to have to
21415s wait and see fpx now not to take the
21418s engagement onto ntl no Al Zone going to
21421s be popped as D quing with the f is going
21423s to be able to connect onto ski Fenix
21425s plus connecting onto Don quing try hard
21427s yet again coming in trying to find the
21429s opening and peel the opposing teada off
21432s of his support will be able to push Don
21434s quing back but Don now with the R&B
21437s frozen out but this time it's him that's
21439s a little
21440s bitable try hard able to find a back to
21443s back Parry doning denied try hard an
21446s absolute sliver of health and it's now a
21450s one versus two Jiao going to be able to
21453s use that P sword coming in with the
21455s staff looking to find the connection
21456s into the gold Focus Don queing with the
21457s lmb going to be able to avoid any of the
21460s followup damage and it looks like the
21462s call was made that ski just needed to
21463s back out of the fight so much pain as
21467s tryhard would say that's all my legs
21471s ladies and gentlemen oh try hard the man
21475s the myth the legend he is just parrying
21478s everyone left and right but it's just
21480s not enough unfortunately both to muls it
21483s was it was quite a funny sight both to M
21486s aled it essentially exactly the same
21489s time and it was like a perfect little
21491s ven diagram you know and then the the no
21494s old Zone immediately gets popped
21496s alongside that and they all just scrap
21499s it out but due to the the huge
21502s differential in in actual loot the
21505s Rarity like we've got gaan with gold the
21508s Dual halit right here it just does the
21511s differential was just too much it seems
21513s and ntl are going to finally get taken
21516s down here ski was doing his best to stay
21519s alive but unfortunately he was not able
21521s to do that IDC we did in fact we we just
21525s cut away we' cut away previously to nl's
21528s fight Z did in fact manage to make it
21531s out alive fortunately so he may be
21534s looking to try and resurrect his
21536s teammates but unfortunate un fortunately
21538s for ski he won't be able to do the same
21541s yeah easier said than done as well on
21542s the ult you may get golden Focus ST on
21545s your F activation but you can still get
21547s chased by a lot of those uppercuts
21549s especially off of that fan it comes out
21551s so quickly as we can have a look at
21553s where these next R of Yanks are going to
21555s be coming out on the map K looking like
21558s they're immediately going to be heading
21559s towards that one over on the left side
21562s xcg potentially going to push over there
21565s themselves as well yeah K definitely POS
21568s in up to put themselves on the middle in
21570s a model War you know exactly where the
21572s portal is going to be it is always right
21574s in the center of that Circle so you can
21576s play to either get in as quickly as
21578s possible or you can be Petty and grief
21580s the opponent into not letting them go
21582s free for free yes indeed but we're going
21585s to have to wait and see B&C posturing to
21588s go for this Morris blessing not looking
21591s to grief a realm of yan K though they're
21593s jumping right in purple armors and a
21597s blue on C Z not too bad fpx lurking
21601s around the portal so they might be
21604s trying to go in here hlg lurking in the
21606s wings as
21607s well it's a bit of a bit of a standoff
21611s right here fpx they're waiting they're
21614s hoping that they don't just randomly get
21616s to mul with or or Viper drop down all of
21620s a sudden out of nowhere oh the dto
21623s rounds onto Han it looks as though I
21626s think they also try to delay that
21628s entrance as well so that the other team
21630s hlg weren't able to go in themselves
21633s that they were able since they had the
21635s optimal position they were able to deny
21637s that entry since they waited until a
21639s very long second so here we are
21642s KLA against fpx Don King finding a very
21646s nice engagement the mirror Toc as they
21649s they got the same mind right now you has
21652s lost a little bit of armor oh the
21654s tornadoes coming in from the back you
21657s take taking a lot of damage but he
21659s doesn't seem to be bothered by it the
21661s teada shove the zipping f is keeping him
21664s topped up the teas are scrapping it out
21666s the the tul with the focus slide we've
21669s seen so much Focus slide it's insane
21671s water lurking in the background throwing
21673s out those fs and those tornadoes any
21677s chance that he has cxz he's topped up he
21680s actually hasn't taken all that much
21681s damage or he's just come back from a
21683s reset doning though oh my look at this
21686s look at that damage with the focus slide
21688s into the slide horizontal with that P
21690s sword you're able to secure so much
21693s damage 2 seconds and he took off his
21696s entire armor Peak with a huge Parry the
21699s tamul goes up into the air trying to
21702s stay alive trying to avoid the punish he
21704s does manage to Stay Alive Don King gets
21706s taken down for it though Yahoo getting
21709s that heal up it's a 3v2 situation you
21713s now in the back looking for that reset
21715s he's found the two heals that he needed
21717s this 2v3 is going to be a rather tall
21720s order but the tamul has that ultimate
21723s yet again he's got it up and ready to go
21725s water with the tornadoes with that
21728s movement he's trying to create some
21729s distance he's probably going to look for
21731s some kind of
21733s heal oh no oh and there it is he just
21736s gets moshit the Yahoo scale rushing
21738s around there's not much time oh and
21741s there it is K come out on top that was a
21744s whisker away from time ey as xcg a whis
21747s R away from going out of this Lobby hlg
21751s coming in with that wind fight Soul Jade
21753s yet again on the fan n HQ off of the fur
21756s and shelves into the flamer so is able
21759s to swap doing so much damage in such a
21762s short span of time as well as denying
21764s any opportunity for that heal to be able
21767s to come through and sustain the other
21768s side and you want to talk about Focus
21770s slide in that realm of Yang dunan I want
21772s to talk about Phantom step you was an
21775s absolute sliver like he was so that
21778s sometimes his health was almost on zero
21780s but he had that Phantom step he had that
21782s additional eye frame and as a result
21784s when he was tap dodging away from a lot
21786s of that damage he was able to keep
21788s himself out of the clutches of things
21790s like the soldiers out from the other
21792s side and Phantom step you're absolutely
21794s right it is such such a good Jade it
21797s should be a gold Chade yeah especially
21799s when you have either a fan or a dagger
21801s to set it up because then you know you
21803s get your dagger dashes you get your soul
21805s break you also get your
21809s oh my it's it's a lot it's a lot if you
21812s go up against a nether step Phantom Step
21815s fan or dagger player you know you got
21818s soul shatter on the fan you got
21820s assassin's lunge on the dagger you're
21823s you're in for a rough go of it I I'll
21825s tell you that it is not very it's not
21829s pleasant you it's it feels next to
21832s impossible to actually create an
21834s opportunity if to actually take pryo
21837s from that player especially when it's te
21839s mirror yeah or like and like it can
21841s literally be anything it's just like
21843s it's the combo of those Jades and those
21845s weapons it just makes it so difficult
21847s and if that character happens to have
21849s some form of self peel some kind of
21851s combo break any opening that you do
21854s manage to find or create can just be
21856s broken out of by that and then you have
21858s to do it all over again it Slips Away
21861s just like you can slip out of the Viper
21863s Al indeed exactly another great thing
21865s about Phantom step it does give give you
21868s that stealth that invisibility so for
21870s things such as Viper Al the tether does
21873s not attach to you in that Dodge moment
21875s but speaking of Viper abbon he's been
21877s forced into a very bad situation the
21881s jabbing coming in from Dong King fpx
21884s have just obliterated VGC the zero band
21888s Zone the the three band Zone rather
21892s preventing the ult from being used they
21894s get that talal down they use that Tower
21897s and then they just clean up the NGC and
21901s pick up those Soul blooms and they are
21902s very happy with themselves xcg coming in
21905s to the mix as well they pick up the
21906s final member of VC mines who'd gone in
21910s the opposite direction trying to stay
21911s alive but unfortunately he went straight
21914s into the clutches of xcg fbx doing such
21918s a good job of making sure that they're
21919s always the one in control of that fight
21922s you've got the Nunu coming through from
21923s water to keep those players locked into
21925s that stagger and you actually see him
21927s taking that forward aggressive position
21929s he's the first in the line to set up for
21931s the jabbing once the cat is out of the
21933s bag and players that you're going into
21935s no to anticipate that really fast Pro of
21938s the blue as unfortunately for fpx
21940s they're going to have to pick up a soul
21942s blo really fast otherwise even though
21943s they have the Synergy they're still
21945s going to be kicked out of the lobby yes
21947s you do not want that to happen as when
21949s you die to Yang depletion you cannot be
21952s resurrected by just going and
21955s interacting with the dead body you have
21957s to
21958s go and buy them back with a rebirth CH
21960s that is definitely not what you want at
21962s this point in the game as it's very
21965s likely that those rebirth Charms have
21966s been bought up and there no that none of
21969s the morses that are going to spawn are
21971s going to give a rebirth charm and that
21973s they're chasing a team oh no if they
21977s manage to isolate one of these players
21979s and quickly burst them they may might be
21981s able to do something but there's only oh
21984s 25 4 seconds left they need to make
21987s something Happ happen right now they
21989s need to get that soul but the woen port
21991s is going to come in and keep them alive
21994s Xiao he does have his sod available the
21997s K is very close by they could
21999s potentially swap their focus but it
22001s doesn't look as though they're going to
22002s choose to do so and water is now getting
22005s chased down by cxz the focus slide
22008s coming in yet again ladies and gentlemen
22011s and there he is taken down unfortunately
22014s one of the worst feelings to die to Yang
22016s Deion it is is it's heartbreaking it is
22019s what it is we've all been through it
22021s thankfully shiao and yeah exactly
22024s exactly thankfully they're still alive
22025s so maybe they they can stay alive long
22027s enough to get more placement points due
22029s to the multiplayer but uhoh Don quing
22032s just went down
22035s okay I mean Jo who's got Al he's got a
22038s little bit of Health to work if he's got
22040s Vitalia he's got a p sword to try and
22042s deter I also like as well the fact that
22044s he's not really going into the purple
22046s bushes because we've seen players now
22048s methodically clear purple bushes instead
22050s players are being a lot smarter and
22052s they're actually putting themselves into
22053s areas where they're more out in the open
22055s they're not obscured they're not
22056s immediately staled but as a result it's
22058s not someone you would immediately think
22059s to try and check for a Runway straggler
22062s is yaho with that tal ultimate trying to
22065s break free live to survive another day
22068s goes up the Cliff face to be able to
22069s scare but he gets stuck inside the
22072s terrain of the boat beam and he gets
22076s held in place by the the mult whisp on
22078s the other side what just happened he
22081s just bumped into him liter he just
22083s headbutted this man another tamul with
22086s his wisp ready to go he gets CC he gets
22089s locked down the crossbow coming in and
22091s the pul sword Bonk to finish him off
22095s GG that's so unfortunate for fpx they
22098s had 11 kills they had so many kills
22101s they're not able to capitalize on that
22103s multiply unfortunately but tell who is
22106s going to be able to xcg with 15 kills on
22110s the board currently and it can
22112s potentially go go even higher since
22115s there are 18 members or 18 players still
22118s left alive that's 15 potential kills I
22120s doubt they'll get all 15 but is it is
22123s the the the like the cap that is the the
22126s most kills that they could get theod OG
22128s are absolutely Untouchable at the moment
22130s on the low end of that ship they've got
22133s the blood Ripper they've also got
22134s merciless havoc and they're just rooll
22136s it out again and again so that no one
22138s puts pressure onto them because you can
22139s see that they've still got two blue
22141s armors as we can have a look at what K
22144s walk away with for free Legendary armor
22148s legendary flamer that's not going to be
22150s something fun for those Zips to deal
22152s with but unfortunately it does actually
22153s cost them Peak goes down the zip without
22157s that sustainability is going to make it
22158s a lot harder for the teada to play for
22160s the win condition of the Zone collapsing
22162s and with the way that this zone is
22164s setting up for so many different levels
22166s that te is not going to have a fun time
22168s using the pur and shelves to actually
22170s translate into extensions yeah and he's
22172s getting stuck on these buttery rocks
22176s it's it's so
22178s difficult I'm just watching him try his
22181s best to just smoothly maneuver around
22184s this Cliff face and he's just getting
22186s stuck on all of it you know it's it's
22188s nice to know that these Pro players
22189s struggle with that movement on the faes
22191s too yeah everyone does it happens to
22194s everyone ug they they seem to be vering
22197s it relatively well for the moment SS
22200s he's trying to find some kind of opening
22203s he's he's got that Cannon thrown out
22206s those those cannon balls he's not really
22208s found all that much success just yet but
22210s hey lxh eating a bit of damage there
22212s from a cannon team 28 in a pretty decent
22216s position they can rotate a little bit
22219s later on to towards the safe Zone as
22222s they are on The High Ground they can see
22224s everything that's happening in front of
22226s them as it's all below them they don't
22228s have to go up a hill up a cliff or
22231s whatever it might be they are trying to
22233s put a decent amount of pressure onto 521
22235s over here as well 5 to1 are in a very
22237s bad situation as they are going to be
22240s forced into
22242s klaa over there it's the two gold armors
22246s the tamul and the teada although they
22248s are a three-man team as of right now two
22252s gold armors to toada toal from two
22256s members of
22257s that could be rather a pretty hard Cliff
22261s to
22263s scale want that
22265s to through from the likes of XG having
22268s to deal with that really good stuff
22269s coming through from NQ to be able to
22271s cover for his zip who's not able to
22273s interact with the earn as we're going to
22274s see everyone now try to trap these
22277s players in towards the outer edges of
22279s that zone to mul ultimate having to be
22281s invested on the side of Team 28 up on
22284s The High Ground so they're able to
22285s survive all of the attention coming
22287s through 5 to1 off of the back of that
22289s teser ultimate have actually been able
22291s to Deone xg's position on the side and
22294s have immediately moved forward to
22295s replace them indeed did you see the
22298s little loot pile on top of that tree on
22301s the tree each member of the team just
22303s takes their turn to go to the top of the
22305s tree and grabs grab some resources you
22308s love to see these little goofy moments
22310s in these games but it's not oh actually
22313s it's about to get even ugly goofier with
22316s this Blood Ripper coming out from ug
22320s ooly fly I love to see it the Gold Blood
22323s Ripper jinu he's just running around
22326s having a good time he's mowing the lawn
22329s he's ready to go he's just trying to
22331s section off that little bit of space for
22334s his team as when you are running around
22336s with the blood Ripper active you are in
22338s purple focus and any range projectiles
22341s that Clash that hit you are just going
22343s to Clank they're going to get destroyed
22345s by the blood Ripper itself oh a
22347s beautiful into heavy heavy sword sap oh
22351s my he's the only one on team alive
22354s though he doesn't have the AL he's
22355s taking so much damage looking to find
22357s the connection the Assassin's Lune
22360s locking him down into the followup
22362s damage from the flamer and GG knock k
22366s out of the lobby Viper ultimate now
22368s coming on through from Team 5 to1 y with
22371s the double jump able to find the
22372s connection onto all of the players of
22373s Team 28 up on The High Ground zip
22375s ultimate going to be kicking in to keep
22377s everyone sustained 5 to1 loged outside
22379s of the Zone with the toot ultimate
22381s coming through have to be so careful
22383s that they don't immediately drop into
22384s the flameer coming on out from the team
22385s on the other side Yin has no choice but
22387s to directly go into the barbecue they've
22389s got the wi and TP but the fire tick
22391s still hits oh that is so unfortunate
22396s they just aren't able to get in and get
22398s stay healthy the flame ringers the the
22401s all the all the fire damage just ticking
22403s away at their health bar their their
22406s Shield was a entally full but they're
22408s just getting absolutely cooked all of
22411s these flame brers all of it being used
22413s so unbelievably well by these teams xcg
22416s doing an excellent job of just
22420s obliterating the lobby they're running
22422s around having a great time misia is the
22424s next Target the Tada for GG he's stuck
22427s on The Buttery rocks on the terrain he's
22429s unable to escape night xq he does not
22433s want to stop and he's gone up the cliff
22435s into the clutches of ug but he's ready
22438s to go the gold fan is doing so much
22441s damage the zipping is unable to do
22444s anything about it and just get shredded
22447s absolutely obliterated and here we are
22449s again jinu now dropping down into NQ and
22454s xan up against the wall up against the
22456s cliff and he gets taken down as well lxm
22459s the final remaining member of Team GG
22462s he's trying to stay alive as long as
22463s possible he's managed to secure that
22465s second place for for his team but oh no
22469s he's not getting first oh
22473s xcg
22476s good what is the fire damage going to be
22479s from that I tell you what you didn't get
22481s you didn't get the T no but technically
22485s you did get teada turning into miniature
22488s t with that flame pseudo
22490s t with the flamebringer
22493s [Laughter]
22495s 0.5 absolutely one day see find one day
22499s one day I I will I will cop him on that
22503s for the rest of my life um but a xcg
22507s closing out the first day of jup group
22511s stage with a banger an absolute Banger
22515s doing exceptionally well so I mean we're
22519s talking about XG but so many of these
22521s teams performed so so well today VGC 521
22526s unfortunately
22527s our boys from Na and euq did not have
22530s the best of performances today but it is
22532s what it is we've talked about it nvpl
22536s teams have been plenty of times where in
22538s certain Series in certain splits certain
22539s teams have just had a bad series and
22542s it's okay it happens to the best of us
22546s recognize that and move forward and come
22549s back in the second day with a Vengeance
22553s ready to go and ready to get booly I
22558s mean speaking about coming back with a
22560s vengeance xcg back on this stage the
22563s last time we saw them right here they
22565s were lifting the mvpl season 2
22568s 2023 trios Champion trophy so they
22573s really have been working very hard
22575s making sure all of that Synergy is on
22577s point their sand Sion composition is
22579s absolutely terrifying they Loop puffing
22581s and scaling into late game really like
22584s that player I really do feel like he has
22586s been
22589s that with he cut just it hard other
22593s composition to hold on to their
22595s abilities and you get to essentially
22597s Force so many fights you don't need to
22599s actually instigate or put yourself into
22600s too close a position where it turns back
22602s on you you pull out a flame L you threat
22604s in that space everyone is scattering out
22606s of the way and they'll run into other
22608s teams which will leave them vulnerable
22610s yeah absolutely we saw that
22612s poor just ticking away slowly getting
22616s crispier crispier and just with full arm
22620s but unable to do anything about it's
22622s okay she's she's got the blindfold see
22624s she doesn't she didn't see it's
22626s fine oh yes it is it's it's it's a rough
22630s sight to see it happens when you have
22632s full armor and you're just dying to fire
22634s P it happen but that is why we talk
22637s about it so often especially in trios
22640s you're able to get just insane value
22644s from fire flame breath flamebringer all
22647s of it fire arrows fire arrows did
22649s receive a enough to be fair however it's
22652s still very strong if you have a lock
22654s down or if you've managed to lock down a
22656s Target or if you're just that good you
22658s just you know you're able to send those
22661s fakes out and you're able to get that
22662s double charge bow shot able to do a
22665s considerable amount of damage directly
22667s to the health bar and it's not only your
22671s essentially bypassing the armor but
22673s you're also able to cut that healing and
22677s prevent it from doing as much as it
22679s should you know it's so so obvious at
22683s this point that healing in is is very
22685s important when your karumi dies on
22687s Transformers you are in a really bad
22690s spot if your zipping dies as toada toal
22693s we saw it at the end there K was in a
22696s really bad even though they had two gold
22698s armors and were very lucid in terms of
22700s Weaponry they weren't really able to do
22702s anything about it they just collapsed on
22705s if one if the zipping and the deada had
22707s been alive together as a pair as opposed
22709s to the toal they could have done a lot
22711s more true but unfortunately that wasn't
22714s the case and it's just it's time and
22717s time again fire damage is just King I
22720s mean something that sort of got stealth
22722s buff as well with the changes to soulj
22724s where we have the combinations now is
22726s Flames breath because it
22728s comb I did want to say that so not only
22731s are you getting that fire tick with
22733s rupture Gale you're also getting a wider
22735s AOE range Rus and that is absolutely
22738s devastating in TRS because everyone has
22740s to play so close together that if you
22742s get claps on everyone can sort of huddle
22744s up and try and just raise their Shields
22746s raise all of their weapons and hope that
22748s by just hedgehogging into a position
22750s they're not going to get pushed even
22752s further yes absolutely oh but look at
22755s that scoreboard ladies and gentlemen
22759s 25 kills five over a 20
22763s bomb a
22765s 25
22767s 25 kills for team xcg in game six of our
22773s first days of trios 39 points with that
22778s first place placement get those dubs
22780s turn that 25 into 35 ladies and
22784s gentlemen and you are you are very happy
22787s second place we have fpx with 11 kills
22790s there quite a contrast there however we
22793s can't we it's not like they didn't
22795s perform well those teams in second third
22797s and fourth all they're all performing
22799s extremely well it's just that xcg pulled
22802s it out of the bag this game and they
22804s popped up okay Mr T expert how much
22808s damage do you think the flamer
22810s did uh you're going to have to guess
22813s soon it's going to be coming I'm going
22814s to say 7 to 10,000 okay 7 to 10,000 I
22820s would estimate it's I mean that's if
22822s he's the MVP it's it's possible but we
22826s we're going to have to wait and see Silo
22829s 28,000 damage on that tul with the V2
22833s again so thing it's very interesting how
22836s The Meta has moved from V3 to V2 and
22840s we've also seen V1 as well it's it's as
22844s if these teams can't make up their mind
22846s as to which is better I think it's more
22848s just sort of they want to throw curve
22849s balls in because they know there's going
22851s to be so many other sandon compositions
22853s just having that opportunity to be ever
22855s so slight different gives them an
22857s opportunity to have an edge in a fight
22859s exactly it can be in those tough
22862s situations in those high intensity
22864s environments it can be difficult to deal
22867s with something that you're just simply
22869s not expecting but here we are looking at
22871s the total standings for the day xcg
22876s sitting at top the leaderboard
22879s with
22881s 17.2 total point oh oh my oh my that is
22888s a lot of points we might have to cross
22891s reference that but that might be the
22892s most amount of points picked up in the
22894s tournament day potentially potentially
22896s however we have UG and KLA in second and
22900s third place fbx fourth there is not all
22904s that much in it between those two teams
22905s that is literally Five Points between
22909s second third and fourth place that is
22911s not very much at all and it speaks to
22913s how competitive this en
22916s these two lobbies have been today in
22919s series I mean this was 100% the lobby of
22922s death yes as we can have a look at a
22924s replays of some of those deaths really
22927s love to see that Tessa coming on for his
22929s hlg's ppy is able to come in with that
22931s slam on the SP and find the connection
22933s you charging Dragon Slayers into nz's
22936s conversion to land into the spine of the
22938s miror teada and immediately can KN
22941s looking to back on up using the Shell to
22943s be able to create even more distance
22945s Kay's Peak on on the clip side coming in
22947s with a flame breath of his own as you
22949s with the jump horizontal cleans up the
22952s player above his head indeed we got a
22954s little bit of a clip here with oh oh
22958s baby n HQ showing exactly why fan is one
22963s of the highest HCK rate weapons at the
22967s current moment in time you're able to so
22970s what happened there was Soul shatter
22972s uppercut grapple cancel blue Focus
22976s obliteration remember as well like the
22978s fan Scoops you closer right so you're
22980s able to utilize that downtime to be able
22983s to swap to something like the flamer and
22984s then because the fan has actually
22986s brought them into the distance the fire
22987s T is going to be able to connect as well
22990s so there's some really good synergies
22992s coming through from those two weapons
22993s and N HQ was 100% banking on that no
22997s he's he's been performing extremely well
22999s today and he's showing off that fan
23001s damage the gold fan and the newest
23005s Mythic skill
23006s the extreme skin the red Rarity it's
23011s it's very nice the fact that it changes
23013s color every time you do a a short handle
23016s Dodge or a quick Dodge they've changed
23018s the name of it I think it's a quick Dash
23019s or quick Dodge something along those
23022s lines every time you dodge you get that
23024s color switch and it's very what did you
23026s say 9k on the 7 to 10 7 to 10 okay how
23030s accurate oh okay all right then all
23033s right okay I can see why you want to
23035s play terer if you think fire tick damage
23038s is going to be able to do that much but
23041s speaking of right seven was it was
23044s definitely up there but it's just that
23046s we were talking about it so much and he
23048s was doing so much damage in general and
23051s it looked as though every time we cut to
23053s him he had the flamebringer in his hand
23055s and doing and so so so we will have to
23058s see I I don't know I don't know speaking
23060s of cutting to n HQ we'll be cutting to
23062s this interview with the player don't go
23064s anywhere we'll be right back
23094s but
23124s for
23154s for
23184s for
23209s [Music]
23214s for

23317s hi everyone this is Jager and welcome to
23320s postgame interview and today we are
23322s really glad welcome M
23325s MVP welcome and let him say hello to our
23334s audience
23339s so first of all we know from the video
23341s that we know like the whole journey for
23344s you to now in the xcg so we know that
23347s the stat sometimes you like in the high
23349s mountain and sometimes you like
23351s downstairs so I would like to know how
23353s you just like pass the Journey of like
23356s these
23364s days
23390s okay so to be honest I think the team
23393s team made for me in xcg they are not
23396s only the partners they are like the Bro
23399s in my daily life and we will like
23401s improve together and really want to have
23403s a high score in the matches and like
23406s both also believe us a lot that's why we
23409s can just stand here and now it's like
23411s what you look like the XG
23417s is so let's move on to next part answer
23420s for
23421s Treasure so you guys can see the
23423s question on the screen and if you know
23424s the answer just type them in the chat
23426s box after a player counting 3 2 1 we
23430s will take a screenshot and the lucky guy
23432s will be whisper so let's see today's
23434s question how many kills will the team
23437s with the highest score in any previous
23440s matches in this match
23454s okay so
23484s for
23487s so I would like to ask him that because
23489s it's the first day of the jup and they
23491s got the highest score in the game one
23494s and also is leading the scoreboard now
23496s so how's his feeling and or what's the
23499s meaning for to him and child just reply
23502s me that he think it's really good
23504s because they like rest for so long time
23506s and really ex ex excited and to have the
23510s matches today and he think now they have
23513s enough points to qualify for the Grand
23516s Final okay I think all players prepared
23518s and let's start
23524s counting one screenshot okay okay so
23529s also because it's the J Cup today and I
23532s would like to know your ambition for
23534s team in the J
23544s cup on the
23550s flag okay so our ambition in the J cup
23554s is to get the championship of the TR
23556s game and if we can get the championship
23559s and then three of us will cosplay the
23562s character in The naraka
23567s okay okay and thank you for today's
23574s interview
23580s okay cheer up and good luck thank you
23581s for today's interview and we will get
23583s back to our
23588s cast is's uh he's making he's making a
23592s lot of moves been playing extremely well
23595s today leading the standings for our
23599s first day of Trio's jup gr stage and I
23603s think he might be right
23606s 16 think it was
23608s 16.2 I might I might be wrong just play
23611s a little bit oh we're going to find
23613s out but
23615s 116 points is I would say likely enough
23620s for qualification in I think it might
23624s you know it might maybe just be enough
23627s that's crazy if you think about it we've
23630s now got two teams in solos we've got
23632s spider in trus we've got xcg that
23635s essentially can just use the second day
23638s of their play to experiment and throw a
23641s couple of spanners into the works of all
23643s of the teams around them absolutely and
23647s the thing that I really liked about that
23649s interview the the recorded video and
23652s then afterwards was that he spoke about
23654s his teammates less about his teammates
23657s and more like his brothers he talked
23659s about in the past they hadn't performed
23661s all that well performed mediocre people
23665s that they'd been going through some some
23668s issues some trouble and they hadn't been
23669s playing as much they didn't they weren't
23671s playing as well and that they're coming
23673s in here into this year's J cup looking
23677s to put in as much effort as they can and
23680s Come Away with the championship title
23683s and they they seem to be a very
23685s tight-knit group and it's lovely to see
23688s talking about tightnit we're going to
23690s have a null other group of tightnit
23693s players coming in
23695s the next day of play which is going to
23698s be groups A and C and correct me if I'm
23701s wrong Duncan but I believe that is Mike
23704s and tryhard in group a still in play I
23709s think you are absolutely correct hey
23712s we're going to be running three holler
23714s off daytime Maps just start it off
23717s tomorrow four solos and then three
23720s nighttime more dusk maps for our second
23724s half of the day
23725s St as we did on the first day of
23730s solo my mind just flooded with all the
23733s nraa all of the amazing nraa that we've
23736s seen today we've had xcg fbx K do
23740s incredible things and this is all off
23742s the back of yesterday oh we had spider
23745s getting four MVPs in a row yeah in a row
23751s and sitting on almost 60 points off of
23754s six games he almost came along and broke
23757s his record of most amount of kills
23759s picked up and one solo Lobby too insane
23762s it's just incredible and then we have
23764s Mike although he he had an amazing first
23766s game he didn't have the best rest of his
23768s series it is what it is you know then we
23771s had frost of Us coming in taking third
23774s and if if not for the moon ban incident
23777s we'd be we'd be talking about how Frost
23780s ofus is in second place behind spider an
23783s international player coming in for his
23786s first time to Jacob that is truly
23788s impressive is truly a sight to see
23790s unfortunately tryhard is not had the
23793s same performance speaking of it today as
23795s well ntl did not perform all that well
23797s and hopefully they can pick it up for
23799s the second day it's I mean try hard he's
23803s that guy he's that guy who does let the
23806s and I talked about this earlier as well
23808s with you marxy that if these players
23810s recognize the fact that anyone can come
23813s and that they they put in a like a crazy
23817s amount of work they're putting in a lot
23818s of effort to be here they got here and
23821s now they have to keep going and then we
23823s have try hard playing in trios and solos
23826s Roman solos and trios it's just there's
23829s so much they they're putting in so much
23831s they have to cut themselves some snack
23833s and they have to realize that they can
23835s still qualify into yeah like it's insane
23838s like you said the fact that we have
23839s three players running both solos and TR
23841s because even if you're playing the same
23842s hero doesn't mean you're either playing
23844s the same abilities or playing them in
23846s the same manner because trios has
23849s entirely different lines positions and
23852s roles assigned in the team a lot of the
23854s time we were seeing in two versus ones
23856s you know one person would take forward
23857s position one person would always make
23858s sure that they were facing behind the
23860s opponent so they'd be able to look for
23862s those parries and lock Downs since you
23864s can't actually Parry behind you you'd
23865s have to actually find the 180 jump Parry
23868s but that is easier said than done
23871s absolutely it is uh it is definitely
23873s hard
23876s it's not easy you know coming to
23878s Shanghai you're coming in you're on the
23880s big stage for the first time on stage
23884s it's a lot it's a lot on your mind it's
23886s a lot of pressure not only to yourself
23889s and your own aspirations but also to all
23892s the fans your supporters you don't want
23895s to let them down but
23897s just take a deep breath come back
23902s re-engage reload and get those points
23906s and get to Grand Final just you know
23908s take a take a twoa you know twoa with
23914s [Laughter]
23917s me I love it but we are going to be
23920s cutting away I think I think that's the
23922s end of the day the whole day highlight
23924s it is the whole day highlight real and
23926s we're going to be going to that but I
23927s think that is going to be all from us
23929s today it is going to be me your host
23932s donkey donuts alongside the lovely Moxy
23935s it has been an amazing day yet again and
23939s there's plenty more of Nora to be played
23942s this is only the second day but anyway
23944s we're going to be having to cut away
23946s here we're going to be cutting away some
23948s tasty highlights but we will be seeing
23950s you again tomorrow so make sure to come
23952s back for tomorrow's solos same time same
23955s place we will see you then take care
23957s everybody
