2564s	what's going on ladies and gentlemen
2566s	welcome back to the naraga blade point a
2568s	pro league I'm your hosting your cast
2569s	for the Rune keeper joining me today is
2571s	the lovely got Moxie and we have got
2574s	your last day of trios here for the
2577s	bi-weekly before we head in to our first
2579s	bi-weekly final of the Season how you
2583s	feeling Moxie Feeling Good Feeling Good
2586s	happy to hop back in the castle seat as
2588s	we're sure to be seeing some of these
2589s	monks hopping into those Pharaoh mechs
2591s	I'm really looking forward to this I've
2593s	got my own a couple of teams we already
2595s	know some of the teams that are going to
2597s	be able to make it through into this
2598s	bi-weeklies given that a lot of teams
2600s	have already played their two days for
2602s	the week a couple of other teams however
2604s	have a question mark hanging above their
2606s	head and I think for both of us the
2608s	biggest question is going to be Jay team
2610s	but also te because I'm sure you
2613s	remember as well as idea roon last year
2616s	and the board that we kept saying every
2618s	single cast about 10 different times and
2621s	that is consistency we're gonna start
2624s	saying it right now alright so you guys
2625s	better get used to it oh yeah absolutely
2628s	consistency is key when it comes to
2631s	these games and you know speaking of of
2634s	the big No-No word here while we're
2636s	talking about it uh t e is a team like
2639s	you said that I'm gonna have my eyes
2640s	very heavily on because you know J team
2643s	defended their world championship title
2645s	this last year but it's not the J team
2648s	who won the World Championship the first
2650s	year ironically enough that team was
2653s	scattered apart during season two of our
2656s	nbpl last year and most of those players
2658s	ended up on different teams coming into
2660s	the new season now though we talked
2663s	about this a little bit earlier me and
2664s	Jake in the week uh you know how a lot
2668s	of these teams realized making those
2670s	major changes to their rosters was not
2673s	paying off for them the teams just did
2675s	not coordinate well together they didn't
2677s	have time you know it was the middle of
2679s	the season to kind of make the
2681s	adjustments they needed as a team but
2683s	coming into our our new season here now
2686s	you know we had a two-month off season
2688s	where these teams could really get some
2689s	practice and stuff back in ironically
2691s	enough the original J team that had been
2694s	splintered across so many teams has come
2697s	back together and formed team te so the
2701s	question is is will they be the same
2704s	Champions that they were in season one
2707s	or will the other J team Dethrone them
2711s	uh and also again will they have
2714s	consistency issues like they did during
2716s	season one of nbpl last year as we take
2718s	a look at the overall scoreboards here
2720s	we see actual J team currently holding
2722s	on to 19th Place here with 47 points big
2726s	note here though they've only been able
2728s	to play one day this is why they are
2730s	down in 19th that said 47 not a great
2732s	day you look at some of the other team
2733s	jdg wbg AOW all 50-point days team JL 80
2738s	Point days team te
2741s	77.3 Point day this is a pretty big day
2745s	uh for team te coming back the first
2748s	time that they've gotten to compete as
2751s	the same J team that we knew that took
2754s	the world championship you know txj vvv
2756s	uh lyd all coming together again and I'm
2760s	interested to see how they shape up
2762s	today against some of these other teams
2764s	now obviously we're going to take a look
2765s	here at team xcg and team KLA KLA
2769s	surprisingly during day one of Trio's
2771s	here absolutely a monstrous day 119 28
2775s	points day two not so great for them a
2780s	24.4 uh whatever they had managed to put
2784s	together during day one started to fall
2785s	apart art now xcg ironically enough was
2788s	a team that looked like they were going
2790s	to come out of the gates and absolutely
2792s	Rock day one ended up crumbling towards
2795s	the end of the day making some bad hero
2798s	picks uh wasting quite a bit of their
2800s	hero points keeping monk in almost every
2802s	comp they played even if they were
2804s	changing Heroes out have come back in
2807s	day two and really shaped things
2808s	together with that consistency that
2811s	we're used to seeing from Team xcg yeah
2814s	I think one thing that we do have to
2816s	talk about though is that meta was very
2818s	much up in the air the first couple of
2820s	days where everyone the sort of think
2822s	about okay how does Ferrier fit in I
2825s	know when she released both of you and I
2826s	were on the same page of that okay this
2829s	is a hero that can challenge that
2830s	Transformer com that was when we knew
2832s	what the V1 and V2 was then the V3 drops
2836s	and you and I both looked at each other
2837s	and went ah it's an Anakin situation she
2840s	was supposed to be the counter to it but
2842s	unfortunately she has only made it
2844s	stronger uh especially because you know
2846s	that monk getting pressured he does
2848s	sometimes having to drop that ultimate
2849s	form traditionally you would have
2851s	something like a UE all top to be able
2853s	to cover that but now that Perry can
2855s	obviously drop that V3 the monk can get
2857s	into the mech be a lot tankier and
2859s	harder to deal with but more importantly
2861s	he can pump out so much damage on that
2863s	Mech that he builds that rage back so
2866s	quickly and it becomes even harder to be
2868s	able to try and punish these Transformer
2870s	teams that dump all of their ultimates
2872s	into one fight and then could be at risk
2874s	of being third-partied afterwards but we
2877s	are gonna have a little bit of a putty
2879s	ourselves we're going to be kicking off
2880s	as a tradition on the Morris aisle
2882s	before moving over onto holleruff which
2884s	is probably where we're going to see
2886s	things like the Decatur come through
2887s	especially the maps that are on dusk we
2890s	were talking about this a little bit
2891s	earlier before the series began roon you
2893s	want to have those fireflies you want
2895s	that Ridge to constantly be generated so
2897s	that's okay that gets to stay in his
2899s	ultimate form as long as possible
2901s	yeah I mean absolutely Takeda really
2904s	thrives during this nighttime and dusk
2906s	Maps because of those fireflies and like
2908s	you said him maintaining uptime on that
2910s	ultimate is so huge for him and the rest
2913s	of the team because not only does he act
2915s	uh as peel for the team he's able to buy
2918s	the team out of a pretty terrible
2920s	situations and set them up for a huge
2923s	explosive combos which is why he sees so
2926s	much favor J team actually being the
2928s	team who kind of uh implemented the
2930s	strategy where we saw the Takeda comp
2932s	starting to come through and them only
2935s	playing it during the night time in dust
2936s	Maps where they were able to get access
2938s	to the fireflies and the rest of the
2940s	league sort of following suit uh ever
2942s	since but I want to talk about uh Feria
2944s	just a little bit here we were talking
2946s	about the V3 uh coming through for Feria
2949s	and one of the big things of note here
2950s	is we're still playing on the old patch
2952s	there was actually a patch just
2954s	yesterday where Feria actually gets
2956s	nerfed right now in when she drops the
2959s	pillar for a Mech it takes up 50 percent
2960s	of old so she can't basically turn
2963s	around attack two people and be able to
2965s	throw the pillar down again but we're
2968s	not going to see those changes reflected
2969s	here so the ferry you guys are seeing
2971s	here going to be much stronger than the
2974s	actual Feria that you guys are going to
2976s	be playing uh on the current patch
2978s	that's been released something to keep
2980s	in mind for the viewers at home because
2982s	now if you're gonna drop that pillar for
2984s	Feria and you're playing solos uh you
2987s	are going to be a 50 old charge instead
2989s	of that 70 you're used to being at and
2992s	that's a huge difference for Feria we
2995s	won't see it reflected here
2996s	unfortunately so we are gonna see a
2999s	pretty dominant uh barrier coming out
3001s	from many many of these teams and like
3003s	you said you know we're gonna see that
3005s	Feria and uh Tian High put together and
3009s	most the time we are either gonna see
3011s	the temi coming in for the support or
3014s	the kurumi gates of yangs obviously
3015s	bringing kurumi back into favor because
3018s	she brings so much healing inside the
3020s	realm of Yang it's very very hard to
3022s	beat that comp with just a temi given
3024s	how much support kurumi brings to the
3026s	team and now that there's double Mac as
3028s	well it makes things even harder and
3031s	what's really nice you can actually if
3033s	you angle it right you can stand a
3035s	behind a fairy pillar and avoid being
3037s	grabbed as well which is absolutely huge
3040s	for some of these teams because double
3041s	grab is really where the monk finds a
3043s	lot of its power and if you're able to
3044s	deny those for any reason it's
3047s	absolutely huge we saw a lot of teams uh
3050s	last year during the World Championship
3051s	actually suffer uh because they were
3054s	making a mistake where they were coming
3055s	in and they weren't letting the UAE Sean
3058s	just instantaneously old and the monk
3060s	would get double grabs because of it and
3062s	then all of a sudden that whole realm of
3064s	Yang just completely lost to a single
3066s	double grab yeah I mean I think it was
3068s	definitely our biggest pet peeve
3070s	combined well we would see the game
3072s	fights like you said and you would be
3074s	running that 10 you'd be running that
3075s	yui but you would fall back into that
3077s	traditional pacing of Transformer comps
3079s	where you don't typically have the T and
3081s	the UE all top at the same time because
3083s	obviously outside of those gate of young
3086s	votes you can get third partied you can
3088s	get punished if you do over commit and
3090s	you'd use both of those Transformers and
3092s	then another team comes along and they
3093s	have Alps and you don't really have
3095s	anything to either try and bait away
3098s	from your position so that you can use
3099s	that ultimate disengage draw line of
3102s	fire and the rest of your two teammates
3104s	can actually have a much easier chance
3106s	at Escape ability but speaking then of
3108s	other compositions that we're likely to
3110s	see and the patches that we're currently
3112s	playing on yes it is going to be like we
3115s	said uh Ferry is still being
3116s	extraordinarily strong with things like
3118s	that Canon still doing a lot of damage
3120s	more specifically though zip is also
3123s	going to be in her buffed State she is
3125s	still going to be able to have that uh
3127s	F3 where she's able to protect her
3129s	allies a lot more specifically and it
3132s	was something that we saw we didn't
3133s	really get to last year right when we
3135s	had zip medic come through it was for
3137s	solos because you had to be selfish with
3139s	your utility usage but now with that uh
3141s	free allowing a lot more team play you
3144s	can have things like the zip combined
3146s	with the Decatur and you just have
3147s	almost Eternal stagger back that ability
3149s	to immediately be able to regain control
3151s	the neutral footing and turn a fight
3154s	immediately on its head in melee phase
3156s	only is really going to benefit a lot of
3159s	these teams and we're still seeing a lot
3160s	of teams trying to figure out what third
3162s	hero to slot in around that whether it's
3165s	going to be something like a Matari for
3166s	the attack boost whether it's going to
3168s	be something like the yui but even more
3169s	crowd control
3171s	yeah absolutely and I mean Matari slots
3173s	in quite well as well you can pick up
3175s	the attack boost you can also take uh
3177s	the version that allows you to kind of
3179s	Vamp some of the HP that you're dealing
3181s	and when you've got Takeda in somebody's
3183s	face and you catch three man in that old
3185s	that's quite a bit of HP that takeda's
3188s	just gonna Bop immediately back up and
3190s	you still get to have a third aggressive
3193s	party member while maintaining healing
3195s	as well right so typically if you bring
3198s	in kurumi uh you kurumi is just tethered
3201s	right she can't fight while she's doing
3203s	it but if you bring in the Matari and
3205s	you run the HP Vamp version of her
3207s	ultimate your team is literally just
3210s	gonna heal by being hyper aggressive and
3213s	you get to do that with Z ping because
3215s	she can get that V3 out or that uh F3
3219s	out cover the team allowing them to just
3221s	continue to push heavily onto the enemy
3224s	team and every time they're dealing
3226s	damage they're just regaining HP so it's
3228s	almost like a twofer coming out from
3230s	that comp right
3231s	yeah Juventus we saw on the screen for a
3233s	couple seconds and the team that I also
3235s	want to talk about very quickly they're
3236s	currently towards the lower end of the
3239s	leaderboard and going back to what we
3241s	were seeing where a lot of these teams
3242s	did make a couple of roster changes I
3245s	think Ventus are one of those teams that
3246s	are still suffering from that teething
3248s	issues they've picked up some really
3249s	strong players most notably sansi from
3251s	ewg but because they still haven't
3254s	really been able to mesh together
3256s	especially in truce you can see a little
3258s	bit of just Synergy not quite there yet
3261s	for those teams so now that a little bit
3263s	more time has passed and they've had a
3264s	couple of days to be able to see where
3266s	things have gone wrong I'm hoping that
3268s	communication is going to be a little
3270s	bit better
3271s	you you know honestly as we get ready to
3274s	lock in for game number one here I think
3275s	Ventus makes the right call here if
3277s	you're gonna pick up new members you
3278s	need to do it at the beginning of season
3280s	one because it gives you the maximum
3282s	amount of time go leading into Worlds to
3285s	kind of get rid of those teething issues
3287s	you talked about right he lets you see
3289s	the field lets you build that Synergy
3291s	against the field and going into season
3294s	two you're also going to be able to take
3296s	advantage of teams who make roster
3297s	changes and then have to go through
3299s	those same teething issues again while
3301s	you've already made those changes and
3303s	you've locked in but we're gonna see
3305s	like you said if now that they've had a
3307s	couple of days here to kind of lock
3309s	things down if they're going to be able
3310s	to adapt to those changes and no
3312s	surprises here we're going to see a lot
3313s	of Feria Tian highs here as well as some
3316s	of the more traditional comps here if
3317s	you see Team Ventus is you're going to
3319s	be running that straight traditional
3321s	comp and this is something I've talked
3323s	about earlier this week you need to pick
3325s	one or two of these comps to run here so
3329s	that you can either run Feria into
3330s	another comp and utilize her well or you
3334s	can run Feria in this main comp and then
3336s	put you Ace on somewhere else run kind
3339s	of a mini Transformer comp to the side
3341s	and that was something we talked about
3344s	and saw as well where we kind of saw
3346s	these side you Asian Transformer comps
3348s	coming in since he's been so heavily
3350s	slotted out of the main one but you have
3352s	to be very careful uh swapping between
3355s	these monk comps here because you do
3356s	only have 15 hero points to deal with
3359s	and of course here in game one none of
3361s	these teams are spending those hero
3363s	points because the first time you play a
3364s	hero on your team it costs zero points
3367s	every time you rerun one of the same
3371s	Heroes it gets more and more expensive
3374s	so even if you're changing which
3375s	Transformer comp you're running the monk
3377s	is continuing to cost you collectively
3379s	more and more hero points and that can
3383s	come back to bite you if your team's not
3384s	prepared for it
3386s	it does look like we're having a pretty
3388s	even spread two teams do seem like
3389s	they're going to be brawling up towards
3391s	secret tunnel no surprises there when
3393s	you're running Transformer comps getting
3394s	those ultimates online as quickly as
3396s	possible really does become imperative a
3399s	couple of teams going to be dropping
3400s	around sun wings but still not really a
3402s	cluster that we're going to be seeing so
3405s	some of these teams should have time to
3406s	be able to settle and try and find those
3408s	loot teams obviously that are
3410s	gravitating towards those higher looted
3411s	areas are going to have much more of an
3413s	advantage than most likely going to be
3415s	those Transformer teams that are trying
3416s	to build up into being able to take
3418s	fights inside those gate of yangs that
3421s	become extremely important most likely
3423s	we're going to see the temicons
3424s	gravitate towards the Morris blessings
3425s	and everybody else try and lock in for
3428s	those Gates the Buffs that come
3429s	alongside them and also the lack of
3431s	third party which allows a lot more
3432s	control however Elias has already been
3434s	able to come in with a very fast pick
3436s	Stanzi has gone down GD likewise going
3439s	to actually be pushing onto AOW as it
3441s	seems like wolves a very aggressive team
3443s	that you last year did suffer from being
3446s	able to go a little bit too aggressive
3447s	at the very first spelling Zone has
3449s	found their way into another fight but
3451s	they decide not to take it they're
3453s	waiting to see whether or not another
3454s	team is too close they want to find a
3456s	little bit better loot trying to split
3458s	jjh off as we do see a legion getting
3461s	taken down extraordinarily low
3463s	yeah welcoming your massive Perry coming
3465s	out from Alexander we're gonna see the
3466s	Bell coming to cover it but God Lee goes
3468s	to a single HP and they're gonna pick
3469s	this up jjh kind of pushing a little too
3472s	aggressively under this fight nobody on
3474s	that team with a single set of armor and
3476s	while wolves only had two sets of white
3478s	armor there it's a significant about
3480s	more of HP that jjh needs to cut through
3484s	when they don't have armor here Julie
3486s	the last remaining member here trying to
3488s	split away from this sorrow lxx here
3490s	giving Chase Julie not a whole lot of
3492s	places to go gonna get the charge left
3494s	click out into the very F coming back in
3496s	with the charge left click but
3497s	immediately gets canceled out of it and
3499s	of course wolves is going to pick up
3500s	their third elimination of the game here
3503s	now this is classic wolves right the
3505s	aggression early on able to turn fights
3507s	on their head what's been nice seeing
3510s	wolves lately uh we've only gotten to
3512s	see them in one day thus far is the fact
3515s	that they've kind of solved their major
3517s	issue at least it seems so far which is
3520s	towards the late game they don't have
3522s	gear they've turned turn their attention
3524s	to securing those Gates of Yang or going
3527s	on to those Moore's blessings so that
3529s	their comp has the gear they need to
3531s	participate in the end game
3533s	well talking about participating Gigi
3535s	currently participating in a fight at
3537s	the moment gonna be able to keep an eye
3539s	out and take down jdg as Alexander does
3543s	just take a couple of seconds to be able
3545s	to Loop through some of those cans pick
3546s	up some of those bodies it looks as well
3548s	like they were able to cancel out that
3549s	very ultimate so that's going to be
3551s	something that this team is not going to
3553s	have on that respawn as we head over
3555s	towards shipwreck te not really anything
3558s	running anything past that blue armor a
3561s	couple of gray weapons as well for vvv
3563s	who unfortunately is not on that Viper
3565s	you did see inside me a little bit
3568s	before that we've heard rumors that vbv
3570s	is not typically actually running that
3572s	vibrant so it seems like this team is
3574s	more committed to being able to have a
3575s	kurumi player to run that more
3577s	traditional Transformer comp and go for
3579s	those gate of Yang fights Jay team going
3582s	to be able to find a little bit more
3584s	time to be able to loot into this higher
3586s	tier area can try and find another
3588s	player but it seems like they just want
3589s	to say eagle up he's already got one
3592s	purple weapons that's going to have a a
3593s	really good impact on the amount of
3595s	damage that he's able to do in that
3596s	transformed state solo2 has 101 TN so
3599s	this team is going to be able to do a
3600s	lot of damage in this ultimates they're
3602s	going to be pretty prepared when we head
3604s	into a couple of gate of Yang fights
3605s	coming through but heading towards
3607s	Shadow Jade ewg have been able to find
3610s	themselves into a fight they have to be
3611s	careful not to fully commit though as JL
3614s	is currently on that right side and they
3616s	decide they don't actually want to take
3617s	it they're taking a little bit of range
3619s	pressure from the members of JL who are
3621s	making their presence known and as a
3623s	result ewd are actually having to use
3625s	ultimates there's that transform coming
3627s	out from the Monk and he's trying to
3628s	find those grabs but the Wu Chan is
3630s	making it a lot harder for him to
3632s	actually be able to find them through
3633s	those windfalls and as a result no karap
3636s	currently coming out for him until now
3638s	there's the slam the double picked up
3641s	two years able to find two in case the
3644s	unfortunately not able to burst through
3646s	the Monk's health bar without that Yoda
3648s	Olson place the Monk's still gonna be up
3650s	has found another player that's taking
3653s	little bit of damage being pelted from
3655s	so far there's a Yoda ultimate trying to
3657s	come on through from jail and carve it
3659s	in so they can push back onto the mems
3661s	of ewg who still have that theory on
3663s	that they decide to use it on their
3665s	Ferry instead of the Monk and as a
3666s	result they can just keep themselves in
3668s	this fight pelting JL is as takes so
3671s	much damage and has to back away but
3673s	that just means that they're running
3675s	right into the open right into the
3676s	cannon shot that still comes through
3678s	from the neck
3679s	yeah this is absolutely a disaster here
3682s	for jail jail honestly had no business
3684s	pushing in while ewg still had that monk
3688s	up they were able to get a grab there
3690s	separate the members of Team JL and JL
3693s	just starts throwing desperate olds out
3695s	one after the other we see the Yoda will
3698s	come out and buy them almost zero
3700s	mileage whatsoever the Viper comes out
3702s	wow they're running away to try to buy
3704s	space doesn't really matter to the ferry
3706s	who's far enough away she can just arm
3708s	her up and throw down uh those huge rain
3712s	shots and pick up those eliminations
3713s	turning now to team GGG going head to
3715s	head with Team wolves here as we catch
3717s	the tail end of this fight GG will be
3719s	picking up those eliminations onto team
3721s	wolves and unfortunately this is a
3724s	problem that team wolves is very used to
3726s	suffering early on they had managed to
3728s	actually put together some decent gear
3730s	here for themselves but now having to
3732s	head back to this Resurrection altar
3734s	just before these Realms of Yang come
3736s	through they're not really going to be
3737s	able to pressure into those Realms of
3739s	yang try to aggressively take those
3741s	fights they are going to need to find
3743s	some gear for themselves and try to
3745s	contest that Moore's blessing if they
3747s	can moving forward because of the time
3750s	that they were eliminated here turning
3753s	now to KZ where you see Bane's breath on
3755s	the back side here uh just to the side
3757s	of Shadow Jade KZ continuing to move
3760s	forward looking to get some loot under
3762s	their belt they do have one purple
3763s	weapon and a single set of purple armor
3765s	but not quite the loot they want heading
3768s	into the realm of Yang whereas if you
3770s	take a look here at Team GG they are
3772s	fairly stacked that purple armor purple
3774s	spear onto TN high no surprise they are
3777s	into the Zone we see a fight breaking
3779s	out between team jjh and ewg and jjh
3783s	actually gonna be able to pick up the
3784s	elimination on to two tick here ewg
3787s	losing all three members but they do
3789s	still have those resurrections and ewg
3791s	currently has nine eliminations under
3794s	the belt they are more than happy to
3796s	take the risk take the fight here while
3798s	they have the resource to burn because
3800s	nine eliminations is going to carry them
3802s	great into the late game they don't need
3803s	to go pressure a realm of Yang or even a
3806s	box here they can just respawn and spend
3808s	some time looting and as they go into
3810s	the late game still be pretty well off
3812s	with those nine eliminations under the
3814s	belt Moxie yeah how Holly we do get to
3817s	see that restraint as I will say some of
3819s	these teams have been oh
3824s	10 kills sometimes very early on into
3826s	that first Zone I've still gone too
3828s	aggressive have still wanted to pressure
3829s	out even more so hopefully we are going
3832s	to see that restraint coming on through
3834s	as we're going to have a look at how
3835s	some of these teams are positioning
3836s	whether or not you were on that respawn
3838s	Ultra and you now have to find yourself
3840s	a couple bits of extra loot or whether
3842s	or not you already have some of that
3844s	loot and you can start to brush it out
3845s	either onto those Gates or for a better
3847s	position onto those teams that are going
3850s	to be coming out from it as we can have
3851s	a look at how this map is shaping up the
3853s	gates are going to be contested
3855s	massively at the moment gal is going to
3858s	be going into an absolute Tiff against
3860s	jjh as Ventus and Casey are also warring
3864s	over towards the central belt of this
3866s	map Jay I'm not quite engaging fully
3869s	into this team however unfortunately
3870s	haven't really been able to find the
3872s	loot to be able to hold themselves
3873s	aggressively in that position J team on
3876s	the other hand you guys already picks up
3878s	merciles Havoc it's not even finding a
3881s	play he's just showing it off this is
3883s	literally Eagles ending up a warning
3885s	flare of not to try and cross into J
3887s	team they are going to get this gate for
3889s	absolute free no one is in the vicinity
3892s	they actually really played it quite
3894s	smart in going really outside of that
3896s	zone so that they can catch out onto a
3898s	space of the gate where not a lot of
3900s	players are going to be contesting so as
3902s	a result all of their ultimates going to
3904s	be online coming into this fight they
3906s	are going to be challenged by wbg so now
3909s	we're going to get to see whether or not
3910s	this kurumi is going to be able to keep
3912s	Eagle up and online for as long as
3915s	possible as Sleepwalker is also going to
3917s	be able to have a little bit of a better
3919s	weapon but he goes really early into
3921s	that monk okay Sleepwalker immediately
3923s	starting things like Eagle likewise
3925s	going for that transformation as we see
3927s	a semi ultimate coming on through
3928s	dropping off half of that map Sleepwalk
3930s	is taking so much damage but he's
3931s	already fine one grab house actually
3933s	dropped the monk from early as the Venom
3936s	tit absolutely pummels the health bar
3938s	there's the barrier trying to Ally
3940s	Sleepwalk at any time to be able to
3941s	regain health and keep Eagle pressure
3944s	night but the kurumi ultimate is keeping
3945s	Eagle healed up for so much more and wbg
3948s	are taking so much pressure Eagle still
3950s	in all form is making it that
3952s	unfortunately Sleepwalk was able to do
3954s	absolutely nothing but stand on the
3956s	sidelines as he watches his team members
3957s	fall
3958s	yeah absolutely huge here on the part of
3961s	J team the all coming out from the
3963s	premier here this is what we talk about
3964s	with the criminal inside of these Realms
3967s	of Yang it's just so hard to deal with
3970s	that amount of healing in a closed space
3972s	like this where you can't move you're
3974s	forced to take these fights and there's
3976s	nothing you can do about it yes you have
3977s	pillars to escape from the grabs but the
3979s	threat of that Monk Is there the entire
3981s	time and it buys j-team as much space as
3984s	they want right if you have to stand
3986s	behind those pillars and try to fight
3988s	behind the pillars only it limits your
3991s	options whereas J team just has every
3994s	option available to them because of how
3995s	much healing comes through onto eagle
3997s	and the hyper aggression early I want to
3999s	talk about how 101 TN comes in with the
4002s	long sword from the side and immediately
4004s	pummels two of those uh horizontal
4007s	slashes onto the enemy monk while Eagle
4010s	is able to lock him down with a grab to
4013s	the chest to keep him staggered so
4015s	there's no risk of 101 TN getting
4017s	grabbed and his soon as he goes low that
4020s	team panics wbg needs to find their out
4023s	and J team is just able to put pressure
4025s	on and as soon as wbg finds even a
4028s	little bit of opening with the tenial
4029s	the crew meal comes out and that's all
4031s	she spoke but wbg speaking of which here
4033s	looking to pick up some of the
4034s	eliminations here is able to get a grab
4037s	on to Kopi is able to pick up the
4039s	elimination but jdg turns the favor back
4041s	onto them with PP in the third party
4043s	coming in from JL and the fourth party
4045s	from Team GD it's absolutely just broken
4048s	out here and there's no place for wbg to
4052s	go JL is going to be coming in GD also
4054s	going to be coming in as a fight breaks
4056s	out between these two third-party teams
4058s	massive Viper looking to come in here
4060s	from the likes of kakaishi but
4062s	unfortunately they are going to be
4064s	forced to use the Wu Chen old out here
4066s	to get the Resurrection on to K I'm not
4069s	quite sure if the stun was able to come
4070s	through from kakaishi before that
4073s	happens but they do buy themselves a
4075s	full reset here and get out of that
4077s	absolute cluster well Jing is actually
4079s	able to find one which does mean that
4081s	wbg are going to be surviving at least
4083s	for now this is a problem unfortunately
4086s	for a lot of these teams who do lose
4087s	those gate of young fights right because
4088s	of that Soul depletion you need to
4091s	immediately find those Soul blooms and
4092s	we're seeing these teams that don't end
4094s	together Yang fights wait around for
4097s	someone to lose one know that they're
4099s	going to be in that really uncomfortable
4100s	spot that another fight is going to
4102s	break out and they're just going to be
4104s	forced into that horrible corner where
4105s	you have to dump all of your ultimates
4107s	Jing goes down I think before he's
4109s	actually even able to use that Rave of
4112s	charm he was able to buy one but I don't
4114s	think he was actually able to get to a
4116s	soul altar to use it so as a result wbg
4119s	are entirely out of this and there's the
4122s	punishment using all of your ultimates
4124s	after you've just lost the Gate of Yang
4126s	fight to try and guarantee that you pick
4127s	up the solvents as quickly as possible
4129s	is an absolute invitation to every
4132s	single team in the vicinity to come in
4134s	for the third party and that's exactly
4135s	what happened
4137s	yeah I mean you're not wrong these teams
4139s	definitely waiting around it's a little
4141s	higher high reward right because the
4142s	last thing you want to do is uh come in
4144s	and have to take that fight with the
4146s	team who's picked up the Vermillion
4147s	Birds might has that buff on them and
4150s	has nothing to lose but if you're able
4152s	to catch these teams out who are forced
4154s	to take fights you can find yourself in
4156s	a really good situation especially if
4159s	you're the team like team JL who's able
4161s	to come in for that huge third party and
4164s	pick up eliminations off of both sides
4166s	of the fight and that's exactly what we
4168s	saw happen there uh you do have to be
4170s	careful though again because those Buffs
4172s	coming through if you pick the wrong uh
4174s	gate and end up with the team with the
4176s	Buffy you're gonna find yourself in
4178s	quite the opposite situation uh but you
4181s	know I I got to talk about the strategy
4183s	there from wbg if you've noticed there's
4185s	a lot less of these sort of early games
4187s	Bane's breath coming through from these
4190s	trio teams and what it is is they're
4192s	opting to hold on to those dark type
4194s	coins until after the first realm of
4196s	Yang because if they lose they can have
4198s	one of their teammates get eliminated
4200s	and just buy them back and immediately
4202s	get rid of that uh Yang depletion for
4205s	one of their teammates with zero
4207s	consequences whatsoever unfortunately it
4209s	doesn't work out for wbg because they
4211s	aggressively take a fight super early
4213s	there and Jing's just not able to do
4216s	anything with that rebirth charm because
4217s	of how many people came into third party
4219s	fourth party that fight but it's a
4222s	really smart strategy on behalf of a lot
4224s	of these teams and our first day of
4226s	trios we saw it pay dividends for a
4228s	couple of these teams Moxie yeah well
4230s	now we're going to see whether or not
4231s	some of these teams are going to
4233s	gravitate and continue to push towards
4235s	those Gates or whether or not the Tammy
4236s	columns are going to resign themselves
4238s	to only countering and contesting those
4241s	boxes it's definitely something that
4243s	we're going to hopefully see as we've
4245s	already seen that the kurumi does just
4247s	immediately and quite literally sidestep
4249s	that to me's importance with the
4250s	ultimate being able to Tavern just
4251s	teleport to the other side of it to
4253s	still keep your Transformers healed up
4255s	to Absolute Fullers such as a boon in
4258s	these Transformer compositions which
4259s	really do just rely on having that
4260s	threat to be able to control the Gate of
4263s	Yang's spaces and keep those players
4264s	behind the pillars so that they don't
4266s	get grabbed out GG is going to be one of
4268s	those teams with that Tammy whether or
4270s	not they're heading towards the Box
4271s	we're about to see as Jay team is once
4273s	again going to be looking to control
4274s	these Gates J team have always been very
4277s	aggressive in taking gate of young
4278s	fights they know the importance of it
4280s	but so too to te and this is a
4284s	a speed run J team however are able to
4287s	actually get into the gate before te so
4290s	T unfortunately not quite fast enough to
4293s	be able to react to it J team will be
4295s	able to win off of that Guild of Yang
4297s	contest whether or not they can actually
4299s	win the game itself we're about to see
4301s	us once again it's going to be very
4302s	early Transformations coming on through
4304s	Eagle going for that month for Tammy
4306s	ultimate making it a little bit harder
4308s	for him to be able to find the rooms to
4309s	be able to grab it he has been able to
4311s	walk his way out of it without taking
4313s	too much damage Godly immediately going
4315s	for that for real Mech trying to build
4316s	up to the cannon to keep Eagle staggered
4318s	out every single time one of those
4320s	cannon shots connects onto the monk he's
4322s	not actually able to either find a grab
4324s	with the players in his hand be able to
4326s	actually commit onto the slum so as a
4328s	result eagle has not been able to do
4329s	anything with that ultimate except stall
4332s	for space as he goes extraordinarily low
4334s	gets pulled up into the air is actually
4336s	forced to use the Bell from Godly as he
4339s	now goes for his ultimate known the
4341s	eagle can't go for a transformation to
4342s	counter this but there's the but once
4345s	again keeping everybody healed up so
4347s	even though Eagle lost the ultimate
4349s	super early on he's still alive and
4352s	they're still winning this fight
4353s	I can we there's so much we have to talk
4356s	about in this particular fight first of
4357s	all 101 TN here abusing assassin's lunch
4361s	here to just be able to buy damage under
4363s	the Monk on repeat because the monk
4365s	can't grab you if you're in those tap
4367s	Dodge frames and then you follow it up
4368s	with Assassin's lunch for huge damage
4370s	and then you're just back into the tap
4372s	Dodge or with the dagger Dash following
4375s	it up with Assassin's lunge again and
4376s	you get to keep track of the monk even
4379s	if he's walking away and J team just
4381s	calms out on top here they play this
4383s	fight so exceptionally well Eagle coming
4385s	in with the soul slash on the katana
4387s	picking up an elimination even though
4389s	the rest of the Soul slash canceled out
4391s	uh by the other team's uh monk with the
4394s	Bell but still that one elimination
4396s	buying them the 3v2 advantage there and
4399s	I also want to talk about the very
4400s	beginning how they actually get into
4402s	this realm of Yang I don't know if you
4403s	saw this ZK on kurumi throws his
4407s	umbrella onto the realm as soon as the
4410s	realm pops uh teamte runs the try to
4414s	take it ZK teleports knocks them all
4417s	away steps through and immediately
4419s	denies te access to the realm and his
4422s	two teammates just follow right in for
4425s	free great use of the kurumi umbrella
4427s	coming out from j-team again we can see
4430s	the the real value for kurumi in this
4433s	composition especially for being able to
4434s	like you said control those Gates
4436s	apparently not just inside the gates but
4438s	also powering entrance to them as te
4440s	unfortunately just forced to sit away
4442s	they know that they weren't able to find
4443s	a gate fight they were committed to
4445s	taking the position against J teams the
4447s	one they weren't able to get into that
4448s	one they weren't within distance to be
4450s	able to try and find another one and as
4452s	a result all of these teams that weren't
4454s	able to find themselves on Morris
4455s	blessing or one of those Gates just has
4457s	to resign themselves to sitting in a
4459s	corner and hoping that they're not going
4460s	to get noticed by the teams that have
4462s	won them and do have those Buffs
4464s	especially because it's going to be
4466s	Mystic Mike you want to be as far away
4468s	from where a fight is going on as
4470s	possible since talking about a fight
4472s	going on we've got a fight into celestra
4474s	water wheel is immediately going to be
4476s	sprung so everyone immediately moving
4478s	away to be not caught into that one as
4480s	everyone goes into Canyon wind was
4482s	coming on through from JL making it a
4484s	lot harder for jjh to be able to try and
4486s	push on and hot swap into those weapons
4488s	and keep this pressure up as Godly looks
4490s	for that opportunity charges up the
4492s	pulse and doesn't find the army that
4493s	he's looking for until now connects onto
4495s	the Viper into the soul slash and it's
4497s	immediately going to actually force that
4499s	witch and ultimate as everybody from JL
4502s	just has to try and back away and
4504s	survive a little bit longer but now that
4505s	that one's been burnt out it becomes a
4507s	game of cat and mouse Slaughter does
4509s	make it a little bit harder jjh not able
4511s	to really pin down jl's location until
4513s	now they're able to clamps onto the
4515s	building that jails sit themselves into
4517s	and the zone is about to push this team
4519s	out even if they don't want to step
4520s	through as jjh go for that
4523s	transformation the foreign they're
4524s	coming on through and just pelting jail
4526s	inside this room they're gonna take Zone
4528s	tick damage in a matter of moments and
4530s	jjh can literally just keep playing this
4532s	game of patience knowing eventually jail
4534s	have to come out
4536s	well they can't be too patient here jjh
4538s	does have that Yang depletion because
4540s	they lost to Jade beam here so they need
4542s	to pick this up very bad and jlsas with
4546s	a massive meter dump coming in the
4548s	dragons were nunchucks absolutely
4550s	blitzing through the members of Team
4552s	jjha two-man dragon's Roar quickly flips
4557s	this fight on its hat and jjh here
4559s	thought they had a massive Advantage
4561s	with the Zone pushing ready to lock team
4564s	JL down and now they're down to a single
4566s	member left alive and godly even though
4568s	he's got the monk transformation he's
4570s	got no hope of winning this fight we're
4572s	gonna see immediately coming in forced
4574s	to use the Bell but the F3 coming
4576s	through from the Yoda he may here just
4579s	gonna lock a Godly down into the back
4581s	corner he's so very low coming through
4584s	trying to get pots off here but all of
4587s	it might be for not as he's stuck in the
4589s	zone here no matter what he does JL is
4592s	gonna be waiting on the outside with a
4594s	massive Advantage form team GD coming in
4596s	looking to capitalize on this but JL
4598s	unbeknownst to them still has all of
4600s	their ultimate so they're going to be
4601s	forced to go ahead and use that woo
4603s	Channel just to back out of that fight
4604s	after we see the Viper stun come through
4607s	and lock down kakaishi there nobody
4609s	getting eliminated off of it huge for
4611s	them now Godly though trapped here
4614s	forced to take a fight that Yang
4616s	depletion still ticking down on him he's
4618s	got to find the grabs he's not able to
4620s	find it unfortunately that's gonna be it
4622s	for jjh's Godly yeah GD coming in once
4625s	again making sure that they're able to
4627s	secure that third party J team are a
4629s	little bit ahead of them so they are
4631s	going to be noticing and hearing those
4633s	ultimates being investigating hot
4635s	swapping onto that pistol just to keep a
4637s	little bit more pressure so they can get
4639s	a little bit of time to be able to rest
4640s	and repair as J team are looking pretty
4643s	sad to be honest we saw just a little
4646s	hint of it it looks like they're running
4647s	two Legendary Weapons already as J team
4650s	are going to be taking a fight at the
4652s	moment to contest this next spawning of
4654s	the Morris blessing t he once again
4657s	right behind them in terms of that
4659s	position both of these seems very very
4661s	familiar with how each other like to
4663s	play as they've both been under the same
4665s	label so they'll be very much aware of
4667s	their playstyles Eagle however is
4669s	absolutely hand gifted spawn box appears
4673s	right next to the monkeys going to be
4675s	able to open it as everyone is just so
4677s	occupied with the fight that's going on
4679s	a random ewg coming in and applying even
4681s	more pressure so that t is forced to
4683s	turn around and once again Jay team are
4686s	absolutely gifted and opportunity
4688s	yeah this is huge for the likes of Jay
4691s	team here as we see them just Pummel
4694s	down on dewg ewg tries to come in to
4698s	contest the box but it's a little bit
4700s	too late as they've already been able to
4701s	open the box and take the armor out of
4704s	the box here for themselves interesting
4706s	to see the legendary armor going on to
4708s	zed gay you do want some survivability
4710s	on that kurumi but you want that
4713s	survivability so that kurumi can
4715s	actively heal your uh Transformers here
4718s	and if those Transformers have that
4720s	legendary armor they have more HP so
4722s	they just generally have more
4723s	survivability but they're opting here to
4726s	go ahead and give it to the kurumi let
4728s	the legendary weapon stay on the monk
4730s	instead hoping to keep the kurumi up so
4733s	that they can just provide enough
4734s	healing that they don't need the extra
4736s	armor for the Transformers I wonder if
4739s	we're gonna see the honest wolf as well
4740s	come through when they actually want to
4741s	use the alt because the kurumi dolls
4744s	tend to be the one that everyone tries
4745s	to pile onto in the neutral fight
4747s	because they know if the kurumi comes
4748s	down so too is that monk when he goes
4751s	for that transformation and he doesn't
4753s	have that constant healing Gigi going to
4755s	be taking a little bit of damage for
4756s	refrio going to get blasted by Ventus
4759s	sitting up on that High Ground as it now
4761s	really does become a squabble for
4763s	positions especially if you're running
4765s	those monk comps Alliance sitting well
4767s	out of these fights trying to make as
4769s	little noise as possible so they can
4770s	hold on to as many resources as possible
4773s	and still have ultimates to come on
4774s	through it is just going to be the Canon
4776s	phase as well all of these monks trying
4778s	to run things like the Canon scatter
4780s	shots on the bows that you can generate
4781s	that rage as quickly as possible and
4783s	keep these ultimates online for as long
4786s	as possible to be able to hold down
4787s	these locations High Ground is going to
4789s	be absolute key when we start to see the
4791s	Zone closing up because of how it looks
4793s	like it's going to be the terrain is
4795s	going to make it a lot harder for these
4796s	monks to freely be able to maneuver
4798s	around when they're actually inside
4799s	their transformation so having a
4802s	position that you want to hold before
4804s	the transformation actually comes
4805s	through is going to be absolutely
4807s	crucial for all of these teams in game
4809s	yeah a The High Ground like you said
4812s	going to be clutch coming in for the
4813s	Transformers because you're just able to
4815s	buy yourself so much space to maneuver
4817s	not only do you have access to better
4819s	lines of sight for those grabs which
4821s	like you said you have the ability to
4823s	back off and just when things turn sour
4826s	you don't want to be trapped on that low
4828s	ground where you have no place to go if
4830s	you're running these Transformer comps
4832s	and here we are like you said this is
4834s	kind of the phase where we're going to
4835s	see a lot of these teams trying to burn
4837s	resources out as most all of these uh
4840s	loot piles have been gone through so
4842s	these teams not really going to be able
4844s	to get resources unless they pick up
4846s	eliminations and those eliminations
4848s	happen to have resources still on hand
4850s	we're going to see here
4852s	that is blood pressure uh coming through
4856s	here but most importantly we see that
4859s	wolves's sorrow here picks up that
4860s	legendary armor here for their monk
4863s	wolves able to hold it together after
4866s	some early eliminations they do go down
4869s	at a bad time where they're not able to
4870s	contest those Realms of Yang like they
4872s	would like to with this particular comp
4874s	so they were kind of forced to play the
4876s	slow game into the late game and using
4879s	that temi here able to come in Secure
4881s	that legendary armor absolutely huge
4883s	here for Teen Wolves as they find
4885s	themselves with the armor Advantage
4887s	finally into these final circles and
4890s	this is where team wolves typically pops
4892s	off right coming into the End Circle
4893s	here they play a much more traditional
4896s	kind of Transformers comp in terms of
4898s	pacing they're looking to pop off in
4901s	those final circles and that's exactly
4903s	what we see here ewg on the back side
4905s	here trying to find a little bit of
4907s	space but they're kind of ping-ponged
4908s	between Alliance and team bentus over
4910s	here those rain shots just coming down
4912s	from every direction 330 over here for
4914s	team at GG one of the League's best
4917s	monks just again on that Cannon looking
4920s	to get that Splash damage off keep the
4922s	rage high and make these teams spend as
4924s	many resources as possible AOW really
4927s	not in good positioning it looks like
4929s	they're going to be the first team to
4930s	kind of turtle here as many of their
4932s	team members go extremely low we're
4934s	gonna see pink Tau will go ahead and pop
4936s	the old tier and GG's team can literally
4938s	just come down here in the crack without
4940s	giving up The High Ground because if
4942s	they come to push over that High Ground
4943s	team GG just steps back up there
4946s	multiple monks coming through ewg as
4948s	well as Vince's pixel ewg here actually
4951s	opting to burn double ultimates off the
4954s	back of this trying to pressure team T
4956s	E's txj here with the transformation as
4959s	well as the mecca txj taking a lot of
4962s	damage but will find the slam onto
4963s	alliances on gxj gonna pick up quite a
4966s	bit here gonna pick up that Soul Bloom
4968s	Essence and almost heal back to full
4970s	immediately as we do see what we call
4972s	the Pacific Rim meta kind of unfolding
4975s	here it's just monks and mechs
4976s	everywhere going head-to-head the Kaiju
4979s	versus the big giant robots here uh
4981s	we're gonna see 330 now on top looking
4984s	to get some of those grabs himself as he
4986s	waited for the other monks to go down
4988s	but he's forced to de-transform here go
4990s	ahead and look for an opportunity to
4993s	reset the mech coming through here and
4995s	it's gonna be Missy here the Tammy who
4997s	picks it up to go in trying to get some
5000s	of that rage built up maybe so he can
5001s	get his own ultimate back and buy the
5003s	team a little bit of space but 330
5005s	completely separated from the team here
5007s	as many of these players pressure onto
5010s	him we're gonna see miskia coming in to
5012s	try to cover 3 30 so he can find that
5014s	reset he desperately wants going at
5016s	Airborne here looking to pick some
5018s	cannon shots up onto players Vince's
5019s	pixel we'll pick up Don Queen with a
5021s	cannon from down a range here Alliance
5024s	is lucky just holding on for dear life
5027s	out here using those scale rushes just
5029s	trying it to be as little a Target as
5032s	possible as they're caught out in the
5033s	middle T's txj gonna pick up a member of
5035s	ewg that's gonna be the second member
5038s	that they pick up here te up to 11
5040s	eliminations and ewg finds their 10th
5043s	elimination of the game but they do lose
5046s	their Feria here which means their
5048s	Monk's gonna have far less cover going
5050s	into these final circles txj looking to
5053s	find another elimination he's got euron
5055s	he needs to get the slam he can't quite
5057s	get it GG's 330 picks it out of his hand
5059s	with a cannon huge for team GG be able
5063s	to deny te yet another elimination
5066s	usually one of those things that you
5068s	always have to watch out for another
5069s	team that you need to watch out for
5070s	however is 17 JL they're still running
5072s	with this Wu Cham which means that they
5074s	do have that of the availability to be
5075s	able to TP from the low ground onto The
5077s	High Ground without punishment
5078s	potentially being picked out by these
5080s	monks speaking about being picked out
5082s	it's an absolute free-for-all J team is
5084s	able to find a pick onto benju goes for
5086s	the flam immediately picks up the kill
5087s	and just goes straight back to grabbing
5089s	out other people misky knife falls to
5091s	the Monk's mitts he starts trying to
5093s	find that second player before the
5094s	transformation drops but he doesn't
5095s	manage to find it in Time pixel now
5098s	still in that monk has been able to find
5099s	JD and ZK goes for the plan but doesn't
5101s	find the kill he's still alive that
5103s	legendary armor will keep him intact as
5106s	it's gonna be free free all monkey up
5108s	and trying to grab these players out 70
5110s	Deals they are still alive on this Yodo
5112s	with those nunchucks looking for that
5114s	reset moment as they are on the logo and
5116s	having to try and find their way out
5118s	without going down to any of these monks
5119s	but a lot of the Transformations have
5121s	already worn out now we're going to see
5122s	again a return to the Canon phases all
5124s	of these players try and build back into
5126s	start transformation as quickly as they
5128s	possibly can miskier with a musket takes
5130s	another player down 101 TN has fallen 70
5133s	jail immediately gonna find another pick
5135s	onto T E's txj as wolves still in this
5138s	but Eagle is the next Monk and the first
5141s	monk who's able to actually get back
5142s	onto that transformation that Sammy
5144s	ultimate is that meaning that they're
5146s	not able to find the picks so then TJ
5148s	are actually using it to hide that
5149s	position as ventus's pixel knows that he
5151s	can't peek this K goes down in the monk
5154s	grab but doesn't actually go down
5155s	entirely drops that Yodo F3 to be able
5158s	to hold themselves alive for as long as
5159s	possible but will go down once it burns
5161s	out wolves picking that one up with a
5163s	bow and still Eagle on this High Ground
5165s	is controlling so much of the space but
5167s	he hasn't find the kills necessary he
5168s	has been able to push pixel load but the
5170s	Bell saves the monk for a little bit of
5172s	time until Eagle is able to switch to
5174s	the dagger and finally find that last
5176s	hit 33 oh however still alive still
5179s	unbothered only has one other player to
5182s	be able to sustain himself the Timmy
5183s	ultimate from Misty already invested
5185s	when eagle was the only Monk on the
5187s	board so as a result they don't have it
5189s	to try and shield him from all of the
5191s	range damage that's coming on through
5192s	his wolves with a Hail Mary of a fairy
5195s	ultimate throws in the transformation
5197s	goes down before they're able to find
5199s	the pickers t e are going to be the last
5201s	player standing but whether or not
5203s	they've done enough to be able to
5205s	actually take MVP remains to be seen
5208s	oh no no te absolutely on top of this
5211s	they had the most eliminations they come
5213s	out on top with the first place finish
5214s	as well and I have to I'm gonna say it
5217s	right now
5218s	kurumi for team te absolutely MVP I
5222s	don't care what the stats say txj goes
5225s	down in this final Circle
5226s	three separate occasions
5230s	but we see vvv come through with the
5233s	resurrection three times and buys txj
5237s	all the way to the final circle is able
5241s	to keep them into the game and even
5244s	though he's not able to get any
5245s	eliminations and gets knocked down low
5247s	where he's out of the circle in the end
5249s	that threat is able to buy their uh on
5252s	enough space to just be able to pick up
5255s	elimination after elimination there in
5257s	the end and I do believe it's 16
5258s	eliminations in a first place finish
5260s	here for team te Who currently is
5263s	sitting at the top of the order for
5265s	these teams today who haven't had their
5268s	second day yet they were sitting in
5270s	about eighth place after their first
5271s	three eliminations in the game they made
5274s	top eight after a game like this they
5276s	could easily be top five and those teams
5278s	in top five right now they're done
5281s	they've already played their two days
5282s	they don't get to contest team te
5285s	continuing to creep up the ladder
5289s	yeah te really making that statement
5291s	that the old God still has that skill
5293s	still has that mechanical prowess and
5295s	even though we're seeing new Heroes
5296s	filter into the meta that knowledge that
5299s	experience that they've had over things
5300s	like position like vvv I talk about you
5303s	with this all of the time I I feel like
5305s	the best Viper in the world always sees
5307s	Souls between vvv and Kakashi and
5310s	knowing as a Viper player like where you
5312s	want to stand where you want to position
5314s	so you go unnoticed for the most amount
5316s	of time possible transfers really nicely
5319s	into being able to play kurumi with no
5321s	one really being able to spot your
5322s	position out going unnoticed when you're
5324s	going for those Terrors and looking for
5325s	the resurrections taking advantage of
5327s	the absolute chaos that occurred when we
5330s	saw that zone start to close up and all
5332s	of those monk players went oh I have to
5333s	oh oh I have to try and find those
5335s	players I have to grab them away from
5336s	that team so that we can rip apart all
5338s	of the other Transformer comps around us
5340s	because the Transformer comp is like a
5342s	house of cards if everyone is standing
5344s	is extraordinarily strong it's going to
5346s	be hard to knock over but you take out
5348s	some of those bass level and suddenly
5350s	that monk comes tumbling down
5352s	yeah absolutely and I mean I also want
5354s	to talk about well let's talk about
5355s	scoreboard first here obviously okay so
5357s	it's 17 eliminations I was close I
5359s	thought it was 16 but it's 17
5360s	eliminations here in the end but the
5362s	first place finish which is a 32.2 game
5365s	score ironically enough it's j team and
5367s	team GGG following up immediately behind
5370s	both of them with 12 eliminations but a
5372s	second and third place finish
5373s	respectively for a 22.2 and a 20 game
5377s	score
5378s	for these two teams I love how it's j
5381s	team versus j-team here tonight
5383s	absolutely love that I like I don't want
5386s	to call team tej team but they are the
5388s	original J team that walked away the
5390s	world champions here so it's very
5392s	interesting to see both of these teams
5394s	who technically have a world
5396s	championship for their rosters going
5399s	head to head here and clearly showing
5401s	why these are the two teams that have
5403s	those World Championship rosters because
5406s	they come out on top every time team te
5409s	also really impressed me in this
5411s	particular game in terms of their
5413s	decision making which is something that
5416s	a lot of these teams tend to struggle
5418s	with we see these teams come in be hyper
5420s	aggressive pick up early eliminations
5421s	and then like you said kind of struggle
5424s	with the fact in the mid game where
5426s	things don't go their way they still try
5429s	to keep that pressure on and it ends up
5431s	costing them big time and they might go
5433s	out early with a ton of eliminations but
5435s	they don't get that multiplier that
5437s	they're looking for team te obviously
5440s	running the traditional kurumi comp year
5442s	looking to go in and secure those Gates
5445s	of Yang and they have an opportunity to
5448s	take one but J team takes it away from
5450s	them and instead of te immediately
5452s	turning and looking to go take another
5454s	fight we actually cut back to team te
5456s	and they're just vibing and building
5458s	right they're hanging out they have a
5460s	couple of eliminations under their belt
5462s	already so they're like why are we gonna
5463s	make the decision to go out and risk
5465s	things we don't need this right here
5467s	huge here I love this particular
5474s	[Music]
5516s	[Music]
5530s	like you said swipe the Hail Mary coming
5532s	out from Teen Wolf they're able to pick
5534s	up a couple of eliminations there but he
5536s	didn't really have the HP to survive the
5538s	Zone there so he gets the double
5540s	elimination and then unfortunately
5541s	wolves does fall down but two extra
5544s	eliminations in the final Circle as the
5547s	last moments tick forward that's huge
5549s	for any team regardless of where their
5551s	current standing is so you've got to
5553s	give it to lxx there for being able to
5555s	pick up uh those extra eliminations and
5557s	kind of pad the score out there for team
5560s	wolves and I will say this 14 wolves the
5563s	name of the game is consistency right
5565s	team wolves has been one of those teams
5567s	where they're able to pop off but
5568s	they're not able to have that sort of
5570s	consistency if they can find that
5572s	consistency this season they could find
5574s	themselves doing very well but here we
5575s	are we're gonna take a look at the MVP
5577s	here and it's going to be the Eurasia on
5579s	here for our team te absolutely massive
5582s	coming through for lyd five eliminations
5585s	nine assists uh huge kill uh
5589s	participation here for lyd but I still
5592s	got to give it to vbv yes lyd cleans up
5595s	the eliminations in this final Circle
5596s	and is able to get them quite a bit of
5599s	score and finish things off but vvv with
5602s	the triple Resurrection in the chaos
5604s	that we saw coming through in those
5606s	final circles is absolutely insane I
5610s	mean talking about it and saying though
5611s	did you see that musket damage
5613s	9k
5615s	if I was in the heated total 9k of it
5618s	was musket and it really goes to show
5620s	you how important being able to hit
5622s	those brain shots are like you want to
5624s	talk about really being able to take
5626s	away some of those kills look no further
5628s	than GG honestly I think this team might
5631s	have the most amount of kills that
5633s	they've been able to quite literally
5634s	snipe out from plays especially for
5637s	monks right because just as one a player
5640s	is held in your ally monk hands and you
5642s	can swap over to things like the cannon
5644s	the musket a flamer and looked
5646s	absolutely barbecue them so too can
5649s	other teams and being able to have that
5651s	sort of sense of knowing okay we have a
5653s	safe position if someone's already got
5655s	uh looked for that grab and they're
5657s	looking to just hold that play in
5659s	position they're not going to be looking
5660s	for a second punch they're not gonna be
5662s	looking for a second grab we can peek
5663s	our heads above the power of pet fire a
5666s	must get shot pick up The Kill and then
5668s	immediately duck back down and that's
5670s	why GG even though they don't really
5672s	make it as far as they want to in that
5674s	final Zone this still pretty far up the
5677s	leaderboard because they really do have
5679s	that sense of understanding however
5681s	team's position around them the total
5684s	opposite of a team that I want to talk
5685s	about is AOW because AOW moving into
5689s	that second last Zone were massively out
5692s	of position and unfortunately sandwiched
5694s	between two teams and that can work for
5697s	you if you're running a wheelchair and
5699s	you have the ultimate you have the
5700s	ability to be able to reposition or drop
5702s	things like the wind walls on either
5704s	side of you to deny that range pressure
5706s	but AOW will not and the second that
5709s	they got spotted out everyone just turns
5712s	swaps to the range and absolutely
5714s	eviscerates that team before they can
5716s	make a single break for cover
5718s	yeah AOW there unfortunately that
5720s	particular position that they ended up
5722s	in the map they were able to buy
5723s	themselves space that they wanted but
5725s	that space had no cover and had no cover
5727s	to go to so as soon as they started
5730s	taking some of those rain shots there
5731s	there wasn't really anything AOW could
5734s	do they really in that given situation
5736s	they either needed to pressure Gigi off
5739s	of the rock that was above them or buy
5741s	space on the other side of them so that
5744s	they weren't sandwiched there but it's
5746s	it it's like any other Lobby if you're
5749s	in that bad positioning the first team
5750s	that goes low it's blood in the water
5752s	and the sharks are coming from you and
5754s	AOW unfortunately you know sometimes you
5757s	have to take the space that you're given
5758s	and you don't want to risk pressuring
5760s	into other teams with you run that high
5762s	risk of third parties but when you have
5764s	that many players left in a final circle
5766s	like that sometimes you have to take the
5768s	risk just for a better positional burn
5771s	the abilities if you have to and then
5774s	try to hold the better ground to get the
5776s	reset that you're looking for
5778s	yeah 70 Jr she has another team that I
5781s	really quickly want to touch on in terms
5782s	of those positions because they saw okay
5785s	a lot of these teams are running the
5786s	Transformer comps they're going to be
5787s	looking to control The High Ground they
5789s	find themselves a little cave they're
5790s	running that weekend so they can
5792s	constantly just uncool and have those
5793s	wu-chan walls they even send one player
5796s	out towards the cabin entrances acts as
5798s	a sort of guard dog to disinterest
5801s	anyone from potentially trying to sniff
5803s	on into that space or use those ranged
5804s	weapons to pressure 17 JL out and it
5807s	works out really well for them they
5809s	don't get grabbed out early when we see
5810s	the absolute chaos that is every single
5812s	Transformer alting at almost the exact
5814s	same time and it allows them to survive
5816s	a little bit longer it doesn't mean that
5818s	they come with the amount of kills that
5819s	they're looking for unfortunately
5821s	they're not able to burst down with that
5823s	Yodo all of those Transformers and this
5826s	is actually something that you and I
5827s	were talking about where we could
5829s	potentially see Acres coming in and
5831s	replacing Yodo in that con composition
5834s	of the Wu Chan of the Viper because he
5836s	has just a little bit more pressure
5837s	towards the transform is Yodo and trying
5840s	to trunk down a monk and put herself
5842s	into that position to potentially be
5843s	grabbed out also now has to deal with a
5846s	second transformation of their career
5848s	and a lot of the time your entire
5850s	ultimate has already gone into that monk
5852s	if you're running up against something
5853s	like uh temi or you have that for a
5856s	shielding that monk it can be a lot
5858s	harder for the Yodo to find Value so
5860s	even though they have survivability they
5863s	don't have the burst damage to come with
5864s	a massive chunk of kills yeah absolutely
5867s	a a like you said as soon as we see
5869s	occurs coming to The Meta I do believe
5870s	we're gonna see Yodo fall out of favor
5873s	in that particular comp because like you
5874s	said she just doesn't have enough to
5877s	answer double Transformer
5879s	in that particular way right you know
5881s	you you as Sean was a different story
5883s	right you Asian wow yes he's transformed
5886s	up he doesn't really have the hard way
5888s	to counteract Yodo but if yodo's turning
5892s	all of her attention onto the Monk and
5894s	Feria goes ahead and drops the mech
5896s	fairy can just sit there and chunk down
5898s	the Yodo through the extra damage
5900s	reduction that our old gives her and not
5902s	really care about it because the Monk's
5904s	gonna live one way or the other not only
5906s	that like you said monk is able to just
5908s	go ahead and grab Yodo out of uh that
5911s	ultimate after that first slash comes
5914s	through and we see that happen a lot
5916s	lately with Yoda Himes because you do
5919s	have to kind of stay stationary to throw
5921s	those hits out if you want to get the
5924s	monk staggered into that Loop but if you
5927s	can't stagger both of those Transformers
5928s	it's a little hopeless and then also
5930s	like you said uh with akkos coming in
5933s	later obviously not this season but he
5935s	will be here next season for sure uh he
5938s	actually is unaffected by Yoda he may
5940s	ultimate while he's pumping out those
5943s	big slashes so it's just another reason
5945s	yodo's trying to end up falling out of
5947s	favor towards that particular comp but
5950s	right now kind of the only fit they have
5954s	for that comp to follow up with the
5957s	Viper right you need to have a big
5959s	ultimate so that if your viper stuns
5961s	half the lobby you have somebody who's
5964s	able to capitalize on it Yodo he made
5966s	the only hero really able to do that
5968s	besides Transformers at the moment
5977s	Max this is traditionally in solos where
5980s	we start to see the decades really
5981s	coming through so I would strongly
5983s	expect that it's going to carry over
5985s	onto this map for the exact same reasons
5987s	a lot of really enclosed spaces taking
5989s	you into some very close fights which
5991s	means not a lot of room if you'll try
5993s	and tab judge out of those Decatur arcs
5995s	when it comes out from the ultimate and
5997s	if we do see the Decatur starting to pop
5998s	up it should be the zip alongside it
6000s	another hero that does like to be run on
6003s	this map but at the moment it feels like
6005s	everyone is still just wanting to run
6006s	these monks kurumi coming on through for
6008s	J team once again looks like te let's
6011s	see what are they running alongside yeah
6015s	they're going actually for the Furrier
6016s	Tammy and monk so no kurumi coming from
6020s	them this time around they're trying to
6021s	save on the zero points yeah you know
6024s	you again there's kind of two schools of
6026s	thought here and I I disagree with this
6029s	kind of transferring between monk comps
6031s	run the optimal monk comp right
6033s	obviously if you want to go ahead and
6035s	run kurumi run kurumi if you want to run
6037s	if area run farrier but if you're like
6039s	wolves right now you know they run they
6041s	ran Feria uh with the other uh kurumi
6046s	last match they're double dipping here
6049s	right without running the ferry They're
6051s	Gonna Save themselves a couple points
6053s	but it's really still gonna cost them
6055s	quite a heavy chunk of points if you
6057s	like a particular comp over another one
6059s	you should just run that three times and
6061s	then have a stronger comp to run another
6063s	three times in my opinion versus this
6066s	kind of swapping Heroes and in and out
6069s	and running a less optimal version of
6072s	the same comp
6075s	well let's have a look at where some of
6076s	these teams are dropping wbg immediately
6079s	deciding to go straight for salvation
6081s	Podium to try and solve that puzzle and
6083s	hopefully drop the red armor to be able
6085s	to Better Boy up their monk without
6087s	having to worry about Loot and also
6089s	really be able to build into those
6090s	circles we are however seeing a couple
6092s	of teams dropping towards plume so they
6094s	might potentially look for the better
6096s	Loop and then push onto salvation Podium
6098s	if wbg takes too long they could
6100s	potentially get find out and taking a
6103s	lot of really disadvantaged fights
6105s	against those ballista that do like to
6108s	parallel that stage t e as this
6110s	tradition the winner of the last fight
6112s	are going to be the team that were
6114s	immediately following and there it is TE
6115s	dropped a little bit further away from
6117s	salvation Podium but immediately pushed
6119s	back into that space not really allowing
6122s	wbg the freedom to send one of those
6124s	players down to look for the glyphs
6126s	because they're going to know that they
6127s	can then take that part that fight three
6129s	to two
6130s	well not only that uh wbg is down below
6134s	which means they've given up ballistic
6136s	control as well which means that te if
6139s	they are able to get on those ballistas
6141s	and take into that fight are gonna be
6143s	able to do something but wbg clearly now
6145s	taking the fight straight to team te as
6148s	te will lose lyd to a member of wbgtxj
6152s	on the monk down below this is a very
6155s	vulnerable position for txj to be in
6158s	they are able to find the grab though
6161s	looks like we will see the slam come
6163s	through on to Jing we need to see the
6164s	follow through from BBB for the
6166s	elimination to be picked up though txj
6168s	needs to be very careful lyd did die up
6172s	top here and it's wbg uh 2v2 here
6176s	unfortunately we are going to see Team
6178s	te go down here wbg will be able to pick
6181s	Jing back up te really wanting to
6184s	contest that early fight there on to wbg
6187s	but that ballista control being taken
6189s	away from them when lyd he gets picked
6191s	up absolutely hurting them there and of
6194s	course the early monk transformation not
6197s	as great as you would think right it
6199s	looks like team te opting for that early
6202s	game rage glyphs uh those glyphs in my
6205s	opinion not super great one especially
6207s	on monk because he doesn't have armor or
6210s	any loot to back him up there sure if
6212s	you get an early purple armor it's
6214s	absolutely massive but the odds of that
6216s	happening in a mortal War given the loot
6218s	discrepancy in this particular mode very
6221s	very low jjh here Julie trying to use uh
6225s	this Bane's breath to cover for the team
6227s	here so we can get the resurrections but
6229s	we're gonna see Team bent is just
6230s	sitting outside here with these
6232s	repeating crossbows more than happy to
6234s	throw rain shots in every single time
6236s	jjh goes in jjh needs to think of
6239s	something else to do here because as
6240s	soon as his Spain's breath goes up
6241s	that's gonna be it for team JJ age here
6245s	as well doesn't it so it's going to be
6247s	going out almost now I'm because he
6250s	spent so long trying to get the
6252s	resurrections on his teammates he hasn't
6254s	really had the time to be able to try to
6255s	reposition so Juventus are literally
6257s	just able to cut his legs off because
6259s	he's still isolated from those other two
6261s	yeah it this is one of those strategies
6263s	right if you're going to throw the
6264s	Bane's breath to cover uh for the
6266s	resurrections there as soon as you
6268s	realize that the position is not
6271s	advantageous because of ranged weapons
6273s	like that he really didn't have an angle
6275s	he could grab those resurrections
6276s	without being ranged down it's time to
6279s	just go ahead and back off right just
6281s	cut your losses reposition and get ready
6284s	for the fight and unfortunately Julie
6285s	just doesn't do that he's so hyper
6287s	focused on trying to get those
6289s	resurrections through because they spent
6290s	so much resources right an early Bane
6293s	all those dark tycoins to buy that early
6296s	Bane and then the position where he
6298s	hyper committed to it he felt like he
6300s	had to and unfortunately sometimes you
6302s	just put those blinders on and it
6304s	doesn't work out and that's what we see
6305s	happening team KZ here able to use that
6307s	pillar to cover for the team we're gonna
6309s	see the stomp come down and buy them a
6312s	lot of space here faction going to go
6314s	down Vince this is wx98 very very low
6317s	though a single shot to HP would be huge
6319s	here but he's able to armor up here
6322s	before any of the members of KZ can come
6324s	in on them and actually damage the HP
6326s	directly so we will see wx98 still able
6330s	to buy his face here oh the huge shot
6333s	coming through there from the monk but
6335s	Casey's gen going to sorry not monk from
6338s	the mech there uh double Transformers
6340s	man
6341s	oh my goodness but what a huge shot
6346s	Jenna forced to de-transform there is
6349s	able to find the space that they need
6351s	for Casey and KZ lips the fight back on
6355s	the tent that was massive mm-hmm Casey
6358s	honestly started at that fight extremely
6360s	smartly as well they're the ones who won
6363s	the fight stops against Ventus are able
6365s	to find a graph that Hasty's able to
6367s	pick up the monk from the enemy team and
6370s	they even drop the temi ultimate slowly
6372s	committing in so that able to find that
6374s	pick onto the monk isolate that main
6376s	carry damage so they can then push onto
6379s	the other two remaining members yes
6381s	they've used two ultimates but they've
6383s	still got that Fifi Mech and as a result
6385s	when we see Ventus try and push back and
6387s	by themselves that space that turn
6388s	around with a Tammy ultimate of their
6390s	own the Met comes on out and it's all of
6393s	the threat all of the cover that they
6395s	need to push the remaining members of
6397s	Ventus away so even though there's
6398s	pressure onto the remaining members
6401s	they're still able to find that pick
6403s	onto the Lost Fifi and finally push ven
6406s	to out for good heading over towards
6408s	city of Tang we can have a look at GG
6410s	but they're not currently going to be
6412s	going into a fight instead we're heading
6413s	over to wbg and AOW who ships in the
6417s	night past each other and absolute has
6419s	breath away from actually engaging in
6422s	that one as AOW honestly making the
6424s	smart decision not going in for that
6426s	engagement just yet wanting to have a
6428s	little bit more of a feel around check
6430s	if there's other plays in the vicinity
6431s	so that there's no risk of third party
6433s	before only now coming in claiming that
6435s	Higher Ground making sure that ping
6437s	tower has a lot more control on whether
6439s	or not he wants to go for that all and
6440s	try and find a grab onto the members of
6442s	wbg who are about to be pushed away by
6444s	The Zone as well very early temmie Ave
6447s	coming on through from Jinx buy himself
6449s	a reposition Zone but PP gets caught in
6451s	the list black behind by AOW Tammy
6454s	Oldman are coming on through to stop the
6456s	members from walking in towards that
6458s	neck and as a result wbg again walked
6461s	backwards into a temmy with an AOW
6463s	absolutely dumpster one of the 10
6466s	heading into today was surely one of the
6468s	favorites
6469s	yeah this is absolutely insane from AOW
6473s	here that Tammy Wiss bought them that
6476s	fight right PB accidentally being caught
6479s	out there and immediately capitalized on
6481s	by the members of AOW just completely
6483s	secures the fight he doesn't even have
6486s	to bend the old there in the original to
6488s	catch BB out and then when he does drop
6490s	the old he's able to get the reset on
6492s	the whis throws two out he's able to
6494s	catch somebody else in a wisp and that
6497s	whole fight is over Tammy the absolute
6499s	MVP there for AOW
6502s	turning now to team te gxj coming in
6504s	here look at all the dark type coins
6506s	they're able to get here and of course a
6508s	full setup for a weapon always available
6510s	here I'm not quite sure which weapon
6512s	they're able to get that set up for but
6514s	going to be huge for them 38
6517s	000 uh of those dark type coins here and
6519s	you gotta remember dark Tech coins even
6521s	more important here uh in Immortal work
6524s	because you can also roll for random
6527s	gear for boxes so if teamte is not able
6529s	to secure themselves a realm of Yang
6531s	here or if they get into a realm of Yang
6534s	and die they maintain that 38 000 points
6537s	can let their members just walk out in
6540s	the zone die and then immediately buy
6542s	the Mac with all their loot but it looks
6544s	like instead they're opting to just roll
6546s	Soul Jades here I think it's small look
6549s	at what they're doing as well they're
6550s	going to a rift dealer that's going to
6552s	be outside of zone so even though
6554s	they're rolling all of these soldiers
6555s	and they're going to leave behind all of
6557s	these soldiers no one is actually going
6559s	to come past and pick up the scraps that
6561s	they leave behind so they're going to
6563s	make sure that not only are they that no
6565s	one else around them is as we have a
6567s	look at how some of these teams position
6569s	as those gate of Yanks do start to come
6571s	online AOW it seems were alone towards
6574s	the site to be able to take one of
6575s	theirs was then Casey the same cannot be
6578s	said they're really going to have to try
6579s	and roll it out the kurumi server
6581s	already coming through so lxx is able to
6583s	push aggressively forward but not able
6586s	to stop them from being able to walk
6588s	into the realm Casey a little bit faster
6590s	you're able to slide through and steal
6592s	it out right underneath their nose
6594s	yeah really unfortunate there because
6596s	they were planning on using that Karimi
6598s	umbrella to push back the members of
6600s	Team KZ but they didn't get their player
6602s	onto the point fast enough and it's kind
6605s	of uh the detriment to be putting it on
6607s	the player because if the player is
6609s	forced to back up for any reason you
6611s	lose your opportunity to get into the
6613s	gate and that's exactly what we saw
6614s	Happening Here KZ here going quite low
6617s	off of these Mech shots hazy about to
6620s	debunk gonna be forced to debunk he does
6622s	have the armor to buy him a little space
6623s	but kakaishi gonna be caught out here uh
6625s	by Jean and vijin now turning on to gd's
6629s	K the last remaining member here for
6631s	team G are going to be forced to DMACC
6633s	and that's all they wrote Casey easily
6635s	picks up the win here te finally finding
6638s	that realm of Yang fight that they
6639s	wanted to look for Here ewg gonna lose
6642s	another one of their members here now
6644s	it's just a 3v1 here on to ewgz Ron and
6648s	euron really no place to go is vvv lyd
6651s	continue to push in he's trying to pick
6653s	up at least an elimination here uh but
6655s	they're not going to allow that to
6657s	happen vvv will be saved out by the
6659s	likes of lyd and te is going to go ahead
6662s	and pick up that Vermillion Birds might
6663s	and all that lovely loot here from the
6665s	realm of Yang spare is such a mean
6668s	weapon intro it's right with the amount
6670s	of saga that is attached to it as well
6672s	as the fact that you can light hit
6673s	confirm one two which is something owl
6675s	ID with that speech is constantly
6677s	pressures out those members with pushing
6680s	onto anyone isolated pushing them away
6682s	from the rest of the team so no one's
6683s	really able to help either that monk or
6685s	that Fifi as we now see AOW pushing JL
6688s	back JL actually having to use both
6690s	Transformations try and help fit it away
6693s	then going for a little bit of hopscotch
6694s	at the moment as as builds up enough
6696s	energy to be able to try and push on
6698s	with those cannons and keep AOW away a
6701s	grab from Feng is going to be attempted
6702s	but unfortunately that just leaves him a
6704s	little bit too vulnerable the repeating
6706s	crossbow chunks through his health and
6708s	AOW have been able to pick up one kill
6710s	they've seen the Asus lost the mac and
6711s	now the Chase Begins chiutong even using
6714s	a neck of their own to be the guarantee
6716s	that they can stop as from just
6717s	disengaging and grappling away as he's
6720s	trying to lose him around the building
6721s	but he gets spotted out as trying to
6724s	keep this disengagement in play doesn't
6726s	have that zip so I'm not gonna have
6727s	things like a bubble to stop those
6729s	grapples from connecting onto him as he
6731s	does go into the canyon to try and lose
6733s	them he goes into the purple Bush to get
6735s	a little bit of a reset and he actually
6737s	manages to slip right away from AOW they
6739s	think he goes into the cavern instead
6741s	yeah that was quite slick by jl's ass
6744s	there into the bush and as soon as he
6746s	sees the players go inside just dips
6748s	away turning now to ewg Inventus going
6750s	ahead to head unfortunately Pixel here
6752s	is just locked down by wx98 uh and a
6756s	huge damage uh coming through here from
6760s	ewg euron's gonna be gone here though to
6763s	take no alt as well they need to play
6765s	this very carefully Fifi no old either
6767s	and J team showing up for the third
6769s	party here on to ewg and team Ventus is
6773s	more than happy to come in and pick up
6775s	some of these scraps there's multiple
6777s	bodies laying around as well that
6779s	they're able to just go ahead and pick
6780s	through as much loot as they want and
6782s	look at this leaving the uh Essence left
6785s	behind here it could be a smart play
6787s	from these players if they intend to go
6790s	into that realm of Yang in case
6792s	potentially they lose the fight they can
6794s	just come back here and pick up that
6796s	Soul Bloom if nobody has decided to come
6799s	back through and pick it up while they
6800s	take those fights
6804s	and it's gonna be the rematch here J
6807s	team versus old J team going head to
6810s	head here look at this they're doing
6812s	some shopping I don't even think they've
6813s	seen J team yet yeah I mean I I said
6815s	there's a gravitational pull between
6817s	these two teams that's a black hole in
6821s	between te and JT and that's just slowly
6824s	drawing them closer and closer together
6826s	as T it seems to have not actually
6829s	spotted out J team might spot out wolves
6832s	in a matter of moments or Wolves might
6834s	not actually decide to commit into this
6835s	JL have actually still find themselves
6837s	in a really rough spot one thing had to
6839s	try and find a rebirth charm and once
6841s	again will unfortunately not be able to
6844s	find their teammates coming back online
6846s	GG by just waiting around that zone
6849s	picking out those stragglers are able to
6851s	find the pick as it does seem like
6853s	they're going to be putting themselves
6854s	into a pretty good position heading in
6856s	to try and contest some of these Gates
6858s	the problem for them is that wait they
6861s	take did they take drug as long
6865s	uh they they uh didn't go into RAM of
6868s	Yang Unfortunately they went and
6870s	collected uh the lovely Moore's blessing
6873s	there and you kind of get what you get
6875s	oh that's true I was gonna say that
6878s	there's no way out of the free Buffs
6880s	that you can potentially choose from you
6882s	go for Draco storm neither the damage
6883s	production has been removed Mystic might
6886s	and Vermillion have a lot more
6887s	importance but as you pointed out if you
6889s	go for a box and you open it up you kind
6892s	of just have to take what's given to you
6894s	is t e still not running into a fight
6896s	against j-team just yet that's probably
6899s	gonna change in a matter of moments
6900s	however as there it is we pan up and J
6902s	team off in the distance hopping their
6905s	way towards the same position that te
6907s	surely have their eye on
6909s	you know we love to see this you talk
6911s	about the gravitational pull between
6912s	these two teams but this is exactly what
6914s	we want right we're talking about the
6916s	two top competing teams really here
6918s	today and we want to see these fights
6920s	every match break out between them we
6922s	don't want to see Jay team or te get
6924s	eliminated by another team and never see
6926s	these two teams go head to head watching
6929s	these two teams fight is exactly what we
6932s	want to see and it's exactly what the
6934s	fans want to see because you're talking
6935s	about two teams each of them with a
6938s	world championship title under their
6940s	belt respectively for their rosters and
6942s	you know that's huge for them right and
6945s	getting to watch two world championship
6947s	teams go ahead to head is exactly the
6950s	kind of content we want to see here wbg
6952s	happy to sit top side here uh at the
6955s	moment uh unfortunately wbg uh did get
6958s	picked off a little earlier so now
6959s	they're just kind of chilling on kind of
6962s	lackluster loot here really Sleepwalker
6964s	the only one with any kind of purple
6966s	gear to their name and wbg sees the uh
6968s	realm of yang come through and they're
6970s	just going to go ahead and back off as
6972s	they see another team able to secure it
6974s	and they don't want to be here when that
6975s	team comes out with that Mystic might
6977s	buff available to him but it looks like
6978s	it's gonna be jjh going head to head
6980s	here with a k z and immediately God Lee
6983s	jumps into the mech here looking to get
6986s	some damage through doesn't want to have
6989s	to use the transformation yet does a ton
6991s	of damage uh to hazy here but hazy gonna
6993s	walk through into the temio looking to
6996s	get a pot off here actually cancels the
6999s	pot goes to the back side of the pillar
7001s	here but we'll be able to find one
7002s	finally gets the heel off and hazy here
7005s	now going to Mech up or sorry not Mac
7007s	I'm going to uh transform here into the
7010s	monk now that he sees the mech about to
7012s	go down he knows he's got a little bit
7014s	of space and we're gonna see Godly
7015s	follow suit now but hazy off to a good
7019s	start here able to pinch a little bit of
7021s	damage there and keep the monk off no
7024s	grabs coming through just yet for either
7026s	side looking to pick up on to a member
7029s	of Casey here but Godly not quite able
7031s	to find the hands that he's used to
7033s	vajin in the back here and of course the
7036s	mech does come through for the other
7038s	side Casey's gen there's no double grab
7040s	opportunity available here for Godly and
7043s	this is exactly what we talk about all
7044s	the time it kind of puts you at a
7046s	disadvantage and you lose most of that
7047s	power unfortunately Godly finds actually
7050s	zero gain from the monks transformation
7053s	here for team jjh and KZ of course still
7056s	has the mech to cover for the team here
7059s	so jjh in a bit of a pickle as we see KZ
7062s	start to put that pressure on scale Rush
7064s	coming in up from hazy here is able to
7066s	connect onto chule for some damage and
7069s	there it is all the members of jjh will
7072s	be picked up in that massive dragons
7074s	Rush followed up with the Greatsword and
7076s	KZ walks away here the winner of a realm
7079s	of Yin it's it's not play coming out for
7081s	them as well like Jen does drop that
7083s	pillar for that for real Mech but
7085s	doesn't actually go into it because they
7087s	see that the monk alt hasn't come out
7089s	from the other side they want to wait
7091s	for when that monkey comes through so
7093s	they can just keep that monk staggered
7094s	out we see the grabs attempted but the
7096s	first is able to distance themselves
7098s	from the fight and keep that monkey
7099s	contested so that the double grabs can't
7101s	come through J team however didn't
7103s	actually go against that phone opponent
7105s	of te to be able to push over into one
7108s	of those Gates of young potentially they
7110s	decided to chance onto one of the boxes
7112s	instead and as a result they are able to
7114s	pick up that buff Mystic might so
7116s	they're able to know whether or not
7117s	venters are pushing towards them and
7119s	chasing after and they'll have that
7121s	damage reduction too so not only are
7123s	they going to have a really good Intel
7125s	of who is behind them they're also going
7127s	to know which teams are going to be
7129s	potentially winning those Gates of Yang
7131s	and they're still going to have the
7132s	damage reduction to be able to hold
7133s	themselves aggressively into the fight
7135s	if they run across one of the victors as
7137s	opposed to one of the losers can we talk
7140s	about the three-man Wisp that Ventus
7142s	just landed there and followed up with
7145s	those crazy rain shots I have zero idea
7149s	why Ventus did not aggressively just
7151s	push into that they they had that on
7154s	lock they shredded the armor off of all
7156s	of Jay team J team backs off and they
7159s	opt to go pick scraps from the box
7161s	instead I don't know Juventus is
7163s	thinking you land a three-man wisp and
7165s	it just rammed the armor off of all
7168s	three team members from j-team you take
7170s	the fight with the heck with the scraps
7173s	you're gonna pick the better gear off of
7174s	Jay team I I feel like that again just
7177s	comes back to teething issues though
7178s	this is still a team that are trying to
7179s	work out this energy isn't whether or
7181s	not they want to go Super Hyper
7183s	aggressive or whether or not they want
7185s	to play more passively and because you
7187s	know that you're going into a team that
7188s	had just opened tomorrow's blessing just
7191s	picked up a buff if it all goes wrong
7193s	even because JT Machi held on to their
7195s	ultimates even when those whisps
7196s	connected you don't want to bite off
7199s	more than you can shoe and risk that
7201s	Synergy and lack of it being the thing
7203s	that actually pushes you out of a fight
7205s	that started off in your favor
7206s	especially since Jaden have that Synergy
7210s	this is a team that know each other know
7212s	how they like to play as another team
7214s	that know how they like to play is TE
7216s	there's a reason that both of these
7218s	teams are pushing towards the top of the
7220s	leaderboard they already do trust each
7222s	other they've already built up that
7223s	chemistry even at the very start of the
7225s	season and that's really going to play
7226s	out for them very well in the long run
7229s	as opposed to some of these teams where
7230s	like you saw from Ventus they might get
7232s	an opportunity to handle them in
7234s	yourself a platter but they don't have
7235s	the confidence in their chemistry yet to
7237s	be able to actually take advantage of it
7239s	yeah I mean absolutely it's definitely a
7241s	confidence thing there because even
7242s	though you know you know they've picked
7244s	up Mystic might you see the announcement
7246s	right even with 25 damage reduction
7249s	you've shredded the armor off of all of
7251s	Jay team you take that fight but
7254s	unfortunately Juventus like you said the
7256s	confidence not quite there to push in on
7258s	and knowing they have olds even though
7260s	they know they have a massive Advantage
7263s	there unfortunate to see it coming out
7265s	from Team Ventus but hopefully playing
7267s	the safe game might pay off for them
7269s	coming into the game here because we do
7271s	still have 36 people still alive at zone
7274s	three collapses onto zone four team jjh
7276s	here with that Yang depletion forced to
7279s	take a fight here but unfortunately
7280s	Godly is munked up and being forced out
7283s	of this fight by wbg and team GD just
7286s	kind of waiting over here that single
7287s	player if jjh could find that player it
7290s	would be huge for them but they only
7291s	have 46 seconds they're going to be
7293s	forced to take a very unfavorable fight
7295s	into team te no monk transformation
7298s	available we're gonna see this silence
7299s	come through from the ferry there onto
7301s	the monkey do quite a bit of damage as
7303s	well jjh might actually just go down to
7306s	Yang depletion here all of these teams
7308s	more than happy to back off now that
7309s	they see the mech and jjh has to
7312s	aggressively continue to push they have
7314s	no choice here that Yang depletion is
7316s	going to kill them all in 20 seconds
7319s	we're gonna see here they're still
7320s	chasing onto wbg but it doesn't look
7323s	like they're gonna be able to pick up an
7324s	elimination in time 12 seconds 10
7327s	seconds now here on to jjh they're still
7331s	trying to push in Alliance on the
7333s	backside here no place for Godly to go
7334s	gonna be forced to pop the Bell doesn't
7336s	really matter those the Yang depletion
7338s	is going to come through we're going to
7340s	see Godly picked up by wbg and all of
7344s	jjh is going to disappear here to the
7347s	Yang depletion it's unfortunate to see
7349s	it happen but this is why these teams
7351s	have to be hyper aggressive if they lose
7353s	those Realms of Yang yeah it's really
7355s	unfortunate as well because jjd was
7357s	actually able to find a pick onto Gene
7359s	is Kai at the beginning of that fight
7361s	but because there were just so many
7364s	teams that were looking out hyper
7366s	Vigilant of seeing whether or not a team
7368s	that had lost that gang fight and had to
7370s	go again aggressive and dump all of
7372s	those ultimates and was around however
7375s	there it is that killed onto Kai has
7378s	actually secured jjh to continue on in
7381s	this fight they've still got to tear me
7383s	alive so they do have an opportunity to
7386s	try to be able to buy themselves back
7389s	yeah absolutely massive for them to be
7391s	able to pick up at least one but it does
7393s	leave jjh in quite the pickles we turn
7395s	now to team te going immediately on to
7399s	AOW here looking to pick up shuitong but
7402s	not quite able to find the follow
7404s	through they do drop the pillar here but
7406s	nobody gonna take the ferry mag they
7407s	need to be careful that was team KZ
7409s	comes through that firemax still a
7411s	available team uh te looking at
7414s	depressure and we see another pillar
7416s	drop here and I'm not quite sure if that
7419s	was team te but I do think it was vbv
7421s	who dropped that there to buy their team
7423s	the time they needed to walk outside of
7425s	the temil KZ more than happy to just
7428s	take the space and the loot from the
7429s	bodies here so that they can get a
7432s	little bit of those necessary pots that
7434s	they needed as they were running kind of
7436s	low team wolves unfortunately going to
7437s	be picked off here by J team benchu
7440s	going to go home here and that's going
7442s	to be it for team wolves and team wolves
7443s	with zero eliminations is about not
7445s	finding themselves where they want to be
7447s	this season uh yeah yet again down in
7450s	that 18th position and this is their
7452s	last day to put some points up on the
7455s	board turning it now to J team J team
7457s	doing quite well four eliminations are
7459s	about kind of slow rolling this
7461s	particular game they didn't find those
7463s	Realms of Yang that they quite wanted to
7465s	with this particular comp so they are
7467s	taking that more slow paced mid game
7470s	here that we talked about that team te
7472s	did last game and this is it this all
7475s	comes down to that decision making for
7477s	these teams and knowing how to play it
7479s	well J team play on the outskirts of
7481s	these fights happy to pick up these kind
7483s	of uh straggler eliminations where solo
7486s	players get separated from the rest of
7488s	their team but not having it to commit a
7491s	ton of resources uh to pick up a few
7494s	eliminations here there while being able
7497s	to go into the late game with the gear
7498s	that they need teamte picking up another
7500s	elimination off the back of Team GG I do
7503s	believe so GG down to two members left
7506s	remaining alive we are gonna enter that
7508s	kind of slow stream here where these
7510s	teams gonna start playing a little bit
7512s	of footsie we're gonna see a lot of
7513s	those cannon shots and musket shots
7514s	coming through as they look at to burn
7517s	resources from other teams as well as
7518s	build rage so that they have those
7520s	ultimates for if they get pushed in on
7523s	yeah te having a little bit of a
7525s	squirrel at the moment vvv hiding up in
7527s	that tree like you said trying to keep
7529s	that position unknown te actually l-yd
7532s	in a tree officer so they really are
7535s	wanting to keep this hybrid wanting to
7536s	have all of this Intel of the teams that
7539s	are around them so they can all track
7540s	and see which team is vulnerable where
7543s	they can potentially hot swap onto a
7544s	ranged weapon pressure Rider player pick
7546s	away a kill it really is a very good
7549s	position to be into asventus try and
7552s	prioritize being able to pick up that
7554s	box it does mean that they're going to
7555s	be out on the off end of the zone They
7557s	are going to have to walk into a
7559s	majority of the teams already set up
7560s	onto The High Ground however that box
7563s	and all of the contents inside it is
7566s	enough at the moment to be able to push
7568s	other teams away from actually opting
7571s	into that engagement and as a result
7573s	because they have a little bit of cover
7574s	to be able to hide behind in that Shack
7576s	they're not getting pressured out as
7578s	actively as AOW when we saw them
7581s	previously in a very similar position on
7584s	the offside of that zone and potentially
7586s	sandwiched in between multiple teams KZ
7589s	not taking that opportunity they've
7591s	decided to go for The High Ground and
7593s	try and claim it away from everybody as
7595s	quickly as possible running things like
7596s	that great sword so you can connect on
7598s	with those swings and Rags all people
7601s	either into the zone or off that Cliff
7602s	where they have to scale all the way
7604s	back up and put them into that poke
7606s	phase once again where you get so much
7608s	control of the early neutral but it's a
7610s	position that's rapidly sought after by
7613s	a lot of other teams Gigi have a very
7615s	similar mindset push everybody to the
7617s	low ground so these cannons can connect
7619s	onto as many players as possible and you
7621s	retain this control eating into those
7623s	resources completely pushing through the
7626s	shields through the rehelps as resources
7628s	start to really dwindle
7630s	yeah gg330 here pressured on to buy it
7633s	Tammy was there forced to go ahead and
7634s	use the F3 to buy themselves some space
7636s	to uh get away from the Wisp as well as
7639s	get a pot off but it doesn't matter
7640s	here's jdg's LSR picks up 333-30 going
7644s	to go for a huge bounce here followed up
7646s	by the woo channel to get them out but
7648s	ewg waiting in the wings mischie looking
7650s	to pick up a massive hole here but ye
7653s	Ron in to the transformation as well as
7656s	their mug 330 gets regrapped by alexar
7659s	there's no place to go 3 30 immediately
7661s	balls to LSR miskia top side here just
7664s	trying to keep folks alive as Alex M
7667s	wu-ten nothing left in the tank there
7669s	he's burned through the F and he's
7670s	burned through the ultimate as well
7671s	miskia just holding on to that half
7674s	doesn't want to go down here he's
7676s	playing that Viper the stun not really
7678s	going to buy him a lot of space Alliance
7680s	gonna pick up by team Bend this year wbg
7682s	gonna pick up J teams with 101 at Tien
7684s	as well wvg playing this very smart
7687s	sticking to the back lines here just
7689s	looking for those easy they've got a lot
7691s	of cover under that particular tent they
7693s	can take shelter from multiple sides and
7696s	it's very hard to push onto wbg right
7698s	now as you see the likes of jdg just
7700s	sitting top side trying to rain those
7702s	shots down as they were able to pick up
7704s	quite a few eliminations with the grabs
7705s	there now need to be very careful as
7707s	many of these teams looking to pressure
7709s	onto them Jin gonna go there to the body
7711s	of 101 Tien find themselves a little bit
7714s	of Rage off of that Soul blue Essence
7717s	looking to come down here and find
7719s	anybody will have Ferry a pillar
7722s	available to them again is it KZ going
7725s	head-to-head with wbg who's repositioned
7728s	topside and taken that space away from
7730s	jdg yeah not only do they have that
7733s	space control they also have that neck
7735s	waiting in the links if Sleepwalker gets
7737s	pressured out by some of these other
7738s	players 10 miles coming through to stop
7741s	the Grouse from being able to connect
7742s	onto those players in the logo and
7744s	ventus's pixel now going for
7745s	transformation of their own but he's on
7747s	the low ground trying to find those
7748s	grabs on the up and as result wbg are
7751s	able to use that cover to be able to
7753s	pull themselves back but still have an
7754s	impact on all the goings on below them
7757s	ultimate drop some Sleepwalker this does
7759s	mean that wbg are potentially vulnerable
7761s	as Casey choose this opportunity to try
7764s	to push on through but there's the neck
7765s	peepee is the one who actually gets into
7767s	it as Hayes he's not able to find the
7769s	connection with that great shot to pump
7771s	the players away from it and as a result
7773s	pipi going into that Cannon is able to
7775s	land the shots and push all of those
7777s	players who'd gotten into position to
7779s	try and take over that high ground right
7781s	back to the low right back to square one
7783s	as we're seeing the boosters come
7784s	through Jen now having to go into that
7786s	Cannon form on the mid grind is able to
7788s	land a shot into jdg LSR who is going to
7791s	go down from the impact but still wbg
7794s	retaining this control of The High
7796s	Ground retaining control of the fight
7798s	overall putting themselves in a great
7800s	position they just need the ultimates to
7802s	come online as hazy is able to parkour
7804s	his way onto Cliffside and wbg have to
7807s	abandon ship
7808s	yeah wbg really in a tight situation
7811s	here I want to talk about team Ventus
7813s	though Ventus here making that sort of
7815s	comeback we were talking about where
7817s	they played safe in delay game wbg James
7819s	will pick up the final elimination on to
7821s	team te sadly so that's gonna be it for
7824s	teamte here but Ventus you know they
7826s	have that huge opportunity onto J team
7828s	earlier in the mid game with a three-man
7831s	whisk did not take it a little bit of
7833s	those confidence issues but no
7835s	confidence issues here in the final
7837s	Circle where they continue to pick up
7838s	elimination after elimination and
7841s	they've moved in to that 10 elimination
7843s	range here in the final Zone which is
7845s	absolutely huge for the likes of Team
7848s	bentus who's been struggling for uh most
7851s	of the day thus far wbg's Jake top side
7853s	here in the mech needs to be careful
7855s	he's not quite taking his own ticket
7857s	will now is going to be forced to move
7859s	here but it's wbg Sleepwalker and Jing
7861s	just holding on to this circle space
7863s	your Ventus wx98 coming in unfortunately
7867s	Sleepwalker will be picking up the
7868s	eliminate Nation there Vince is not able
7870s	to find anything else Sleepwalker just
7872s	looking for one more grab hoping to lock
7875s	this down wbg trying to find it ZK will
7878s	go down for J team is jjh versus wbg but
7881s	wbg will lock up the final elimination
7884s	and it looks like wbg is going to come
7886s	out on top for our game number two yeah
7889s	top kills and lost survivor will lock
7892s	them up with MVP Sleepwalker arguably
7894s	one of the best monks if not the best
7896s	monk in the world it really is a tug of
7899s	war between him free free oh and
7902s	arguably Eagle in pixel as well on their
7904s	best days for that top spot for that
7906s	particular hero and for wbg again it
7910s	just came back to that knowledge that
7911s	game since the macro play coming through
7913s	with understanding okay we're a
7915s	Transformer composition there's going to
7917s	be one main High Ground if we take
7920s	control of that early on we can keep
7922s	applying pressure onto all of those
7923s	players below us we can drop that uh
7926s	pillar from afaria to be able to just
7928s	have in case anyone tries to push in and
7931s	punish us one at monk alt drops cycle
7934s	through those two ultimates retain
7935s	control find those picks keep everybody
7938s	else from being able to scale up and
7940s	push us out of that position for a long
7942s	enough amount of time that they're able
7943s	to cement their place on that perch and
7946s	as a result wbg just have entire control
7949s	of the lobby from the get-go
7951s	yeah they did a really good job here in
7953s	the final Circle they actually took a
7954s	position onto the low ground while
7956s	everybody was fighting for that High
7958s	Ground initially that bought them kind
7960s	of Defense from every side that one
7961s	particular tent really bought them cover
7963s	from any Direction they wanted and they
7965s	were able to just sit in the back and
7967s	pick off stragglers as they were
7969s	separated from their team and as soon as
7972s	AOW loses control of that High Ground
7975s	where they were forced to go ahead and
7977s	pop the Feria Mech immediately after the
7979s	munkle wbg sees the opportunity to
7983s	pressure into that doesn't really care
7985s	that KZ sitting to decide because KZ
7987s	hasn't been able to pressure in and do
7989s	anything about AOW they decide to then
7992s	go top side pressure AOW out of there
7994s	and then like you said are able to
7996s	stagger the ultimates unlike AOW who's
7998s	forced to just pop them in repeat
8000s	succession and the Staggering of those
8002s	ultimates buy them The High Ground for
8005s	the rest of that match and when it comes
8007s	down to the final moments both the mech
8009s	and the monk are available for them at
8011s	the same same time and they just buy so
8013s	much space for themselves it's hard for
8015s	any team to compete there's a couple
8017s	solo players left live really trying to
8019s	get in there and stop wbg for making it
8021s	but both uh of course Sleepwalker and uh
8024s	their Transformer uh Fifi able to just
8027s	like I said to cover space for one
8029s	another Fifi goes down the Transformers
8032s	forced to de-transform inside the Zone
8034s	but is able to just hold on long enough
8036s	that he comes out on top there against
8039s	jjh the Karimi pops the A desperate old
8042s	but the Zone tick not allowing that
8043s	healing to kick in and that's all she
8045s	wrote wbg just takes control after AOW
8049s	gives up that advantageous position 16
8052s	eliminations of 30.6 game score KZ
8055s	though with 14 eliminations and that
8058s	third place finish still not sitting in
8060s	a terrible position with a 23 game score
8063s	and team ventis a team that we were
8065s	worried about some of that Synergy and
8067s	that confidence they definitely lack the
8069s	confidence in the mid game become coming
8071s	into this final Circle they still showed
8073s	us that they are some of the best
8075s	players here in the league I mean I
8077s	would honestly say senzi is probably
8079s	upset with just isn't the best players
8081s	for that final Zone as long as he has a
8084s	team to be able to support him and
8085s	create that space for him Juventus is
8088s	most likely going to flourish and
8090s	honestly that's why even though I do
8092s	feel like it was a confidence issue not
8093s	going for that confrontation against J
8095s	team I'm okay with Ventus for going the
8098s	opportunity of maybe finding a pick-off
8100s	j team to guarantee that all three of
8102s	their players survive into that final
8104s	Zone to play off of the chaos because
8106s	let's be honest that's where the most of
8108s	your kills are going to be able to come
8109s	from when no one is really looking at a
8111s	position when no one is worried about
8112s	how are we going to counter you because
8114s	they literally just don't have the time
8116s	to turn around and figure out that
8118s	you're standing there something that wbg
8121s	like you said took massive advantage of
8123s	Sleepwalker coming of 18K damage and
8126s	Jing coming in with a whopping 21.7 on
8129s	that barrier
8131s	oh yeah we're gonna come into this fight
8132s	here this was really unfortunate for
8134s	team te right they actually lose one of
8137s	their members top side off of the
8138s	ballista and it buys ballista control
8140s	for wbg so that the monk comes through
8143s	and even though the monk is able to get
8145s	the grab off the player on the ballista
8147s	Unfortunately they had already done so
8149s	much damage to teamte's monk player that
8152s	it just didn't matter they were able to
8153s	come in and Blitz them down very quickly
8155s	turning now taking it back to this fight
8157s	between uh AOW and JL uh this a very
8161s	good fight here ewg actually holding out
8164s	quite well here their Ferry are really
8166s	covering for them until the third party
8168s	comes through here's where jdg has
8170s	control in his top side but they get
8172s	blitzed down and forced out in this
8174s	particular moment and this is where wbg
8176s	is able to come up and just take control
8178s	of the Zone here and you see look at
8180s	this Jing just sitting here on the very
8181s	edge of the Zone not taking Zone tick
8183s	damage picking up eliminations and
8184s	buying space Sleepwalker then of course
8186s	standing right here in the middle able
8188s	to just pump some damage out and keep
8190s	people from being able to hold that
8192s	space he goes down but PP here able to
8194s	come in and that karumial just not
8196s	buying uh the final team here any kind
8199s	of healing really it's a little bit of
8201s	healing but there's so much heel cut in
8203s	that final Zone unfortunately for Emile
8205s	just doesn't buy you the space you're
8207s	looking for and no surprises here Jing
8209s	will be our MVP here with 21 000 damage
8213s	six eliminations and four assists quite
8217s	a high kill participation here coming in
8219s	from Jenga look at this universe slash
8220s	assault beam Splash and pride fall and a
8223s	10K damage coming through from the long
8225s	story there no surprises when you've got
8227s	Phoenix blast picking up quite a bit of
8229s	damage there with the long sword on
8231s	those long slashes yeah I we did get to
8234s	see it in replays as well I'm sure you
8236s	heard the intake of sadness as we got to
8238s	see free free O's pool Shakespearean
8240s	tragedy once again you have to feel for
8243s	that Yodo uses the ultimate uh or rather
8246s	tries to retain control of the higher
8248s	grounds has to get wuchen tp'd out the
8251s	Witch and TP from The High Ground
8253s	blindly onto the low into another team
8256s	has to then use the Yoda ultimate to
8258s	cover for that little faux pas uses the
8261s	forest lash uses the second to try to
8263s	reposition to get a better read and push
8265s	onto the players below them and because
8267s	you've already expanded the first flash
8269s	gets grabbed up again by The mongolo
8272s	High Ground it really is unfortunate and
8275s	it really does just go to show that it
8277s	feels like that sort of Ye Old Faithful
8279s	Transformer contest composition of that
8282s	Yodo of that weekend of that Viper it's
8284s	just really lacking some fangs against
8286s	these Ferrier and monk combinations once
8291s	again and it really does show in the
8292s	amount of teams that are not actually
8294s	choosing to pick it we've only really
8297s	seen three teams gravitate towards those
8299s	compositions in two whole games everyone
8302s	else has been running the double uh
8304s	Transformer and it's been working out
8305s	brilliantly from them well there's some
8308s	kind of big issues with that comp
8310s	running right now it it was the tried
8312s	and true comp that allowed j-team to buy
8314s	that first sort of championship for
8316s	themselves but since then it's seen it
8319s	so many tiny adjustments and Nerfs that
8322s	is just not able to stand up to that
8324s	Transformers comp anymore we've got a
8326s	short video though before we come back
8327s	and then we're gonna be locking in for
8329s	our third game of the day so make sure
8330s	you guys stick around

8573s	season and we're trying to figure out
8575s	which teams from the trios are going to
8577s	be sent towards the bi-weeklies the top
8579s	14 Rune are gonna be able to make it
8582s	through so it's even harder than it was
8583s	last year two other teams aren't going
8586s	to be able to make the break into that
8588s	leaderboard and be able to put
8590s	themselves into earning some of those
8592s	points for the entirety of that regular
8594s	season and J team a team that we're
8596s	always talking about just ever so
8598s	slightly off of that Brink
8600s	yeah j-team already having much better
8602s	performance today too though because if
8604s	you look day two for the entire day they
8606s	only put 47 points together they're two
8608s	games deep and they already have 30
8611s	points playing a much more consistent
8613s	day for themselves here today wbg off
8616s	the back of a very big game here as well
8618s	a 35 Point day already from their first
8621s	two games looking to outpace their first
8625s	day of the week as well scoring quite
8628s	well across the board in general wbg is
8631s	another one of those teams that I kind
8633s	of talk about when I'm talking about
8634s	consistency them in xcg typically even
8638s	if they're not putting up big points
8639s	they're putting up consistent points
8641s	onto the board and of course we have to
8643s	look at Team te here a 41.8 point day
8647s	here looking to have a Repeat
8649s	Performance
8650s	if not an even better day than they did
8653s	on the first day
8655s	doing it quite well and you know it's it
8658s	comes back to that this team knows their
8660s	synergies well with each other and even
8662s	though we're into kind of a new meta and
8664s	it's been a while since they played with
8666s	each other all of them have been playing
8669s	here in the pro league in some way shape
8672s	or form on other teams so it's kind of
8674s	like riding a bicycle for that team in
8677s	terms of synergy
8679s	speaking of synergy as all 17 JL not
8682s	having as explosive a day two as they
8685s	had previously and I mean it really does
8687s	feel like it's just because this counter
8690s	Transformer composition isn't having
8692s	that same strength of power that has had
8694s	in previous Seasons right 17 JL were a
8697s	team that in Worlds almost pushed J team
8700s	to the brink of losing out on that
8702s	number one spot and then major strength
8704s	has always been that Yodo wuchen and
8707s	Viper composition they run it today in
8709s	game number one they were able to
8710s	survive for a massive amount of time but
8713s	they didn't find the kills they were
8714s	looking for so the points weren't really
8716s	as big as they had been previously so
8719s	even though they started off the day
8721s	pretty high up in the leaderboard it's
8723s	only because of that day one performance
8725s	that they're currently in the top 14 at
8728s	the moment they're still yet to break 20
8730s	points today because that composition is
8732s	just not finding the strength that it
8734s	has previously yeah we were talking
8736s	about this a little bit during the break
8738s	year as well course the fact that Viper
8741s	now just she doesn't have anywhere near
8743s	as many outs and feria's V3 really being
8746s	what kind of puts the nail in the coffin
8749s	for that particular team comp because
8751s	before if you were able to dodge the
8753s	monk Kansas Viper and get the stun off
8755s	there's nothing the monk can do about
8757s	the stun coming through you Asia not
8760s	really able to cover that as well like
8762s	he can transform to get around that but
8764s	he's not able to cover such a big Target
8767s	whereas Faria can just have the pillar
8770s	dropped down on the ground and as soon
8772s	as the stun gets ready to come through
8774s	Feria can grab that and it creates such
8777s	a massive distance and a body block for
8779s	the monk as well able to just completely
8782s	cover him from any kind of uh recompense
8784s	that the Viper ultimate's gonna bring in
8786s	with that stun and then as soon as the
8788s	stun's done the monk comes back in it
8790s	and you're fighting two Transformers
8792s	instead of one and then of course Yodo
8794s	now very easy to be able to be grabbed
8796s	after that first slash coming through
8799s	from the ultimate by a monk player as
8801s	well the cop just doesn't have as much
8803s	threat to the Transformers as he used to
8805s	yeah as well as the fact that like to
8808s	add salt to the wounds very not only
8810s	sort of disables Viper's ultimate her
8814s	every awesome copies Viper's own kit the
8818s	silence can be absolutely massive the
8819s	fact that you can use it at range as
8821s	well means that the ferry a lot of the
8823s	time is in far less danger a lot of the
8825s	time when we see that Viper composition
8827s	come through the loot funnel goes
8830s	towards the Viper so that she has the
8832s	most survivability when she does go into
8834s	that ultimate one right because she's
8835s	not going to get close she's going to
8837s	get into line of sight if she wants to
8838s	be able to land her F's as well she's
8840s	got to get within melee range the same
8842s	cannot be said for real so she really
8844s	does get to distance herself and still
8846s	have that impact still have the ability
8847s	yes the science is a lot shorter three
8849s	seconds compared to something like eight
8850s	seconds definitely has a major
8852s	difference but that silence can still be
8855s	so detrimental into setting things up
8857s	like the Wu Chan who if he doesn't have
8860s	the ability to be able to drop that
8862s	ultimate isn't going to be able to get
8864s	his team out of a really tough position
8867s	and because the Viper doesn't get that
8869s	ultimate to be able to lock the stun
8870s	onto those other players a lot of the
8873s	time the luchan just doesn't get that
8874s	same breathing space of a bubble that he
8877s	got in previous compositions previous
8879s	series when he had that time to be able
8881s	to set up where he wanted to teleport
8882s	and make sure that everyone was actually
8884s	within range now it's very much if you
8887s	can get the ultimate online you do it as
8889s	quickly as possible so it doesn't get
8891s	staggered out yeah absolutely and
8893s	speaking of rubbing salt in the wound it
8895s	very also uh countering that wuchen just
8898s	a little bit as well because she can
8899s	make up and you know those wind walls
8901s	buy you a lot of protection from range
8903s	projectiles from that front-facing area
8906s	but Barry can just Mech up hop up in the
8908s	air go above the wind walls and continue
8911s	to Pummel that artillery down behind it
8913s	right the sort of temil really being the
8916s	only one that buys them a little bit of
8918s	space until fario walks through it so
8920s	iwuchen also losing a little bit of his
8923s	kit there to Feria ferio really you know
8926s	again we we talk about an Anakin
8928s	situation we expected ferry to be the
8930s	counter to our monk comps but as soon as
8933s	the V3 uh became available and we all
8935s	knew what it was we kind of called that
8937s	they were just gonna use that Mech as a
8939s	second transformation for the Monk and
8941s	that's often what we see happen very
8943s	rarely do we see these Transformers the
8945s	epheria or the temi jump in the mech uh
8949s	to just cover the monk when the monk can
8950s	just jump in the mech and come for
8952s	himself
8955s	you're a novice farrier because it feels
8958s	like she does have money granted she did
8959s	get nerfed on live patch this however is
8962s	not live patches this is an old badge
8965s	this is that bluff patch so very still
8968s	has extreme amounts of strength in that
8970s	neck which is why we're seeing so many
8972s	of these players gravitate towards her
8974s	is that that pillar can just be down for
8976s	so long and it acts as a such good
8978s	deterrent it's essentially mosquito
8980s	spray right you drop it when you're on
8982s	The High Ground during the space that
8984s	you want to be able to control
8985s	continuously and teams around you see
8989s	that pillar and don't want to go for the
8991s	commitment whereas if they do go for the
8992s	commitment you can just hop into that
8994s	neck and immediately push them back and
8996s	something that took maybe 30 seconds to
8998s	set up from this team because everyone
8999s	has to be in position immediately get
9002s	shredded and you have to wait another 30
9004s	seconds for everything to be back online
9006s	now however we are going to see a slight
9008s	Wrinkle in the compositions that'll be
9011s	coming out for some of these teams ewg
9013s	is going to be Fielding the first
9015s	Decatur of the day and along inside it
9017s	you run is going to be picking up that
9019s	zip they're running as well take on that
9021s	Tammy so this is full crowd control
9023s	coming out from this team a lot of
9026s	counters to come out they're running
9028s	that semi so they are going to be able
9029s	to potentially stop the monk grabs from
9031s	coming through but the true worry is the
9034s	sheer amount of staggers that are there
9036s	in the close quarter fights I I I kind
9040s	of disagree with this pick from ewg I
9042s	feel like they're running this comp
9044s	because they don't want to run the Viper
9046s	comp for the all the reasons we've been
9047s	talking about here after coming back
9049s	from the break but the problem is this
9050s	is the midday map this is quite possibly
9053s	the worst map to be running Takeda into
9056s	because there are so few fireflies in
9059s	this particular version of the map
9061s	compared to any other version of the map
9063s	so I I wonder if what they've done is
9067s	they've sort of weighed the pros and
9068s	cons of running Takeda in a day so
9070s	you're not going to get the fireplace
9071s	against the strength that a lot of these
9073s	teams have already burned through that
9075s	monk composition so you're going to be
9077s	better off dealing with things like the
9079s	Yodo and the Viper and the wu-chan which
9082s	just doesn't have the damage to be able
9083s	to burst through the zip and the
9085s	takeda's survivability
9087s	it's it's going to be interesting to see
9089s	how it plays out obviously you can run
9091s	glyphs to counteract uh takeda's lack of
9096s	ultimate right you can build that full
9097s	rage up coming in off of Takeda but it's
9101s	still very interesting that they choose
9102s	now to run it when there are still
9104s	nighttime Maps available uh but I also
9107s	100 agree with running it over the Viper
9109s	comp but given uh all the disparities
9111s	that the Viper comp does run into right
9113s	now Sleepwalker getting picked up here
9115s	immediately by J team's eagle with that
9117s	charged right click coming out there
9118s	from the staff gonna go ahead and pick
9119s	up their first elimination here onto
9121s	Sleepwalker Jing trying to get away here
9124s	JT not gonna let this elimination go
9126s	though three players chasing onto Jing
9128s	Jing with no armor here
9130s	oh unfortunately Jing might actually get
9134s	away here I may have misspoken if you
9135s	know this 101 TN no grapples here but
9138s	finally Eagle is able to close the gap
9139s	and he does have the grapples no place
9141s	purging to go 101 Tien wasn't able to
9144s	get those grapple locks but a single
9146s	grapple comes through from Eagle and
9148s	that's all the time j-team needs to be
9150s	able to secure the cable there on to
9153s	Jing aventus already picking up some
9154s	early eliminations as well here
9157s	as we're going to see Jay team continue
9159s	their dominant performance today team te
9161s	here just north of Shadow James Jade
9165s	mine literally on the edge of it here
9167s	able to pick up quite a few sets of
9168s	armor already here te unfortunately only
9171s	with that gray armor looking to pick up
9173s	something else does find the blue armor
9175s	team te here very ably easy to go ahead
9178s	and start contesting some of these other
9180s	teams now they also have a purple Katana
9183s	here which is massive here for them
9185s	looks like they're going to be able to
9186s	pick up this bounty as well uh if they
9189s	opt to do so they will be able to go and
9191s	Hunt another team now but maybe uh
9193s	they're afraid to given their gear slots
9195s	here it doesn't look like they're going
9196s	to take the Bounty uh yes
9201s	he had actually been able to push into
9203s	Shadow Jade Minds with the higher loot
9206s	here was before te and te seeing that
9209s	some of the league had already been
9210s	stolen decided to back off because they
9213s	don't have the Weaponry like you point
9214s	aside to be able to stand against it
9216s	they've only really got that one purple
9217s	Katana they also don't have the
9219s	ultimates to be able to try and contest
9221s	early and as a result not only do they
9223s	go away without picking up that Bounty
9225s	they try and back off and perform that
9227s	fight entirely use case it is most
9228s	likely going to be chasing after them
9230s	but we move over to celestra as they owe
9232s	Ping Tao comes in with the Jagger
9234s	uppercut to be able to lock down jjh's
9236s	God Lee immediately prompting that yodel
9238s	ultimate to come on through from AOW
9240s	trying to catch on to the remaining
9242s	members of jjh they're able to log down
9244s	to one yui and it should just be cleanup
9247s	from this team really good clinical
9249s	using that dagger isolating our girls
9251s	players making sure that no one is
9253s	really able to escape that crowd control
9255s	and immediately turning with that Yodo
9257s	ultimate to catch on to those members
9258s	that were attempting to disengage
9260s	without a witch and ultimate you know
9262s	what's funny is we talk about the Viper
9263s	you go to email ultimate here and it
9265s	used to be a mid to late game prompt
9267s	right you're looking to pick up the
9268s	majority of your points in those sorts
9270s	of final circles it's now turned into an
9272s	early game comp where you're able to
9273s	engage on these Transformer comps when
9275s	they don't have their ultimates and
9277s	utilize the abilities of that team to
9278s	Blitz through people as we just watched
9280s	AOW do to team jjh but unfortunately it
9284s	falls off into the mid to late game now
9286s	ewg here also blitzing through a team
9289s	and it's j team unfortunately we are
9291s	going to see the G transformation come
9292s	through from Eagle very smart there he
9295s	has a little bit of armor left he's able
9296s	to use the Bell to buy him a little bit
9297s	of time but unfortunately not enough
9299s	time as both him and ZK will fall to ewg
9303s	they do have those resurrections
9305s	available so they're going to go look
9307s	for a new place to come in but now J
9309s	team going to be forced to find that
9311s	loot all over again team wolves here
9313s	playing a hyper aggressive team trying
9316s	to go on to team GD but it's not really
9318s	uh panning out in their favor they are
9321s	on that sort of Viper comp the lxr
9323s	coming in with the vipro this could be
9325s	huge able to land the double stun here
9326s	but sorrow and lxx forced to back off
9329s	the sides here uh and fight this at a
9332s	distance because of how low they are and
9333s	team GD down to two members left alive
9335s	lxx the only member of Team wolves here
9338s	needing to win a 1v2 but team JL comes
9342s	in and wolves LSX gonna be picked off by
9344s	JL here JL trying to come in now on to
9348s	GDK tried to get a resurrection did get
9351s	one off onto kakaishi but it's not going
9354s	to be an office jail immediately comes
9355s	in kakaishi will find an ultimate though
9357s	it's going to buy him a little bit more
9359s	time to cover 4K but JL still all three
9362s	members available here is going to start
9365s	blitzing through the health bar of gd's
9368s	kakaishi here as also able to pick up
9370s	dongqing the slam comes through quite a
9372s	bit of damage there to the shields of
9375s	donkwing and we are going to see
9376s	kakaishi lose this ultimate here any
9378s	second steps into the no old Zone to
9380s	cancel it for himself but the third uh
9383s	respawn comes back through as they try
9385s	to take this fight here we see one of
9387s	the members of GD go to an ear respawn
9389s	and then push back into the fight they
9391s	are confident they can win this fight
9393s	into team at GL here risking quite a lot
9396s	using that respawn and running this
9398s	fight back but they do pick up one thing
9400s	but now team wolves coming back for the
9402s	run back as well in Gray armor more than
9405s	happy to take this fight seeing all
9407s	those ultimates burned from both sides
9409s	here wolves looking to pick up some
9411s	eliminations does pick up Don Queen
9413s	looks like they're gonna pick up K as
9415s	well and team wolves making a smart
9418s	decision watching this fight sees all
9420s	the ultimates burnt out see both sides
9422s	down a man come in pick up all three
9424s	team members of Team GD and team wolves
9428s	will go to Five eliminations oh what a
9431s	roller coaster because honestly it looks
9432s	so good for GD they're able to get the
9434s	kick to connect onto the enemy monk so
9437s	he isn't actually able to do damage to
9438s	kakaishi until we actually see Kakashi's
9441s	kurumi come through able to drop that
9443s	ultimate to be able to keep the monk
9445s	healed up unfortunately does get grabbed
9447s	by putting themselves into a position to
9449s	give that monk the leg up however
9452s	they're able to survive long enough to
9454s	like you so go into the anti-old Zone
9456s	not just to drop their own ultimate but
9459s	also to make sure that the you that was
9460s	pursuing them was actually fought to
9462s	drop their ultimate themselves and it
9463s	seems to be working for GD they start
9465s	turning it around onto JL the problem is
9467s	it takes too long and like you saw
9468s	Wolves playing that hyper aggressive
9471s	style waiting for their moment to strike
9473s	seeing the ultimates invested knowing
9475s	that even if they've got only a Yodo
9477s	ultimate and gray weapons they still
9479s	have the damage necessary to burst
9481s	through normal health bars as opposed to
9483s	trying to chunk for those Transformers
9485s	and Wade through fights like you're
9487s	stuck in jelly moving over towards
9489s	shipwreck it is going to be Alliance
9491s	pushing up against juventuses and
9493s	venters are in a decent position
9495s	unfortunately for them they don't have
9497s	the full health with wx98 to be able to
9499s	stand and take this fight that's why
9501s	they're trying to find that
9501s	disengagement pixel and Sandy playing a
9504s	little bit closer towards alliance's
9506s	players having the bigger Health Plus
9508s	knowing that if they're the ones that
9510s	get caught out they have a much better
9511s	chance of surviving and buying wx98 that
9514s	chance to disengage and look for the
9516s	reset I was talking about reset 17 Jal
9519s	and GD once again find each other around
9522s	the soul alter as getting a very early
9524s	care roomie to have a seize the ultimate
9526s	from kikaishi is able to find a grab
9529s	onto one thing and looks for this one
9530s	but it's not a double grab it is however
9532s	into Phoenix Blast coming through from
9534s	the other members of GED catching out
9536s	onto that one player as they get stagger
9539s	locked into animation and as a result 17
9541s	Jalan are actually able to push back
9543s	onto this fight until now ultimate has
9545s	dropped from gd's kakaishi this should
9547s	be when GD tried to push back in before
9549s	all 17 JL can get that opportunity to be
9552s	able to go for ultimates of their own
9554s	yui comes out trying to catch on to the
9556s	kurumu who's mid tether and trying to
9558s	find that Resurrection is okay hounds
9560s	you down forces I had that karumi
9563s	ultimate super late on as actually uses
9565s	it to be able to push his position
9567s	onwards and keep gd's kakaishi from
9569s	being able to aggress in and follow off
9571s	of these strikes and slashes the K has
9573s	to open but now she's able to even up
9575s	that distance goes for the feet to try
9577s	and go into that tap Dodge animation but
9580s	doesn't manage to time it gets grabbed
9582s	out of the mix but still doesn't find
9584s	the Slam at the moment as even with
9586s	kakaichi being grabbed out the numbers
9588s	are just two against JL and GD went out
9591s	overall yeah as getting a little greedy
9594s	there he had one in his hand he really
9595s	wanted to double grab but if he was able
9597s	to pop the slam there he would have done
9599s	damage and pushed the yui back but
9601s	instead Ops for the double grab doesn't
9603s	find it and gets eliminated for as we
9605s	see Team te going head-to-head against
9607s	team at GG here inside the realm of Yang
9611s	only the first date of Transformers here
9613s	nobody else coming in with a follow-up
9615s	transform Gigi's Alex I'm gonna be
9617s	forced to go ahead and Pop That kurumi
9619s	ultimate but we're gonna see the
9620s	follow-up kurumi ultimate coming in from
9622s	a team te here as he looks to pick up
9624s	the grab here on demiskia they do each
9627s	find one grab but the double grab coming
9629s	through from Team GG might secure enough
9632s	damage here for team te to be put on the
9634s	back foot te however more than able to
9637s	keep their calm and keep the pressure
9639s	going to see both the uas come through
9642s	both teams holding these olds for a very
9645s	long time here minskia trying to put in
9647s	the pressure lyd just playing cover off
9650s	of this other you Asian saying Hey I'm
9652s	I'm gonna try to keep you from getting
9653s	any mileage off of this whatsoever I'll
9656s	just play cover for my team here and is
9658s	able to pump a ton of damage onto miskia
9660s	as well and it's working out great for
9663s	team te because they focus on the other
9666s	Eurasian they're able to not only keep
9669s	them from coming in onto the rest of
9670s	Team te but punish them by putting a ton
9673s	of damage on so that the rest of Team te
9675s	can finish off their teammates and
9678s	follow up and pick up that elimination
9679s	onto the Eurasia not smart team again on
9682s	the sun like normally as well we would
9684s	criticize for holding on to that UE
9686s	ultimate in a get a young fight where
9688s	you're not gonna get third partied but
9690s	if the other team doesn't go for that UE
9691s	ultimate and you want to just use our ID
9693s	to hand down misky to make sure that
9696s	those plans don't connect onto those
9697s	other two members who are vulnerable who
9699s	don't have those ultimates Karimi
9701s	ultimate already invested monk ultimate
9703s	already invested you absolutely need to
9705s	hold the UE ultimate to be able to do
9707s	just that very smart decision making
9709s	coming out from this team in a very
9711s	Niche situation but having that
9713s	understanding knowing okay we need to
9715s	turn around the ultimate economy allows
9717s	them to come out on top as once again
9719s	teams that weren't able to push onto
9721s	those Gates not wanting to reveal
9723s	themselves J team so close to GD but
9727s	none the wiser as GD just hanging on
9730s	those roofs they'll know they get that
9732s	third-party observation they actually
9733s	choose now to try and scale Rush onto
9735s	the members of JT and setting into place
9738s	an opening of a lot of Canon 5 but it
9740s	doesn't really it connects onto the
9742s	members of J team and as a result they
9744s	don't actually push that engagement as
9746s	hard as if Eagles health bar had been
9747s	ripped in half
9749s	yeah absolutely J team needs to be
9751s	careful here is they still haven't been
9753s	able to find that follow-up loot from
9755s	their first elimination early on in the
9757s	game all of them rocking Blues as we
9759s	turn now the team KZ going head-to-head
9761s	with GG 330 gonna go ahead and monk up
9763s	here as we see hazy get caught out in
9767s	the hepta and then grabbed up by 3 30. a
9770s	ton of repeating crossbow Fire coming in
9772s	hazy extremely low misky trying to go
9774s	and secure it but actually gets stunned
9776s	out of the follow-up and hazy will be
9778s	able to find the ultimate here but it's
9780s	not gonna be enough as he's so low he's
9782s	gonna be forced to jump out of here and
9784s	KZ gets split up from the rest of their
9787s	teammate here Jen locked down the slam
9789s	not even needed as GG's just able to
9791s	follow up with the ranged weapons and
9793s	pick up those eliminations hazy is able
9795s	to find a bit of a reset here inside of
9798s	the mech and we'll get the
9799s	transformation off that he's looking for
9801s	but the question is is it going to be
9803s	enough given that they are down a man
9805s	here and quite low on resources misky
9809s	here in the uasia I'm just going to come
9811s	in and start pummeling on to hazy who's
9813s	transformed and fajin as fajin tries to
9816s	create some space here with those
9817s	grapples to lock down for the grabs we
9819s	do see one grab through two grabs come
9822s	through on to GG miskia trying to cancel
9824s	the grab out there not quite able to
9826s	find it some damage coming through
9827s	unfortunately miskia will de-transform
9829s	the bell comes through fajin finds the
9832s	elimination on to 3 30 and this fight
9834s	might be flipped on its head on or sorry
9836s	hazy unfortunately gonna back off needs
9838s	to find the reset fajin going quite low
9841s	because of it and now we're gonna see
9843s	the criminal come out and Gigi Gonna
9845s	Stand Here In the Zone but the Whisk
9847s	comes through and a ton of damage
9849s	pouring onto lxm the ultimate buying
9851s	them the space to stay alive though and
9854s	it looks like team GG might be able to
9857s	come back into this fight but they need
9859s	to be very careful as hazely and fajin
9862s	building so much rage off of that whisk
9865s	those rain shots doing a ton of damage
9867s	to lxn and they might find those
9869s	ultimates much sooner than team GG does
9872s	oh early Bello from Haiti does leave
9874s	them vulnerable to that chart stops
9876s	vertical from the long side to connect
9877s	and push them further outside of the
9879s	Zone without the Bell they don't have
9881s	that iframe as GG immediately turn onto
9884s	that monk separate him away from fashion
9887s	and that is going to be the follow-up it
9889s	took a little bit longer than Gigi were
9890s	hoping for and unfortunately it did
9893s	actually cost them free free oh they're
9895s	not able to get back onto his body in
9897s	time to be able to find the rescue
9898s	however they will survive and continue
9900s	in the series as Jay team are up to
9903s	their regular antics of a 2022 fighting
9906s	once again inside the zone
9909s	yeah j-team finds himself doing this
9911s	quite a lot but thankfully not laying
9913s	onto that old strategy that did not
9915s	serve them well uh during season two of
9918s	good of course that strategy kind of
9919s	being where they sit on the edge of the
9921s	zone and try to pick off stragglers that
9923s	come through leaving them not enough
9926s	loot really to participate in the final
9927s	circles and pop off now they're hyper
9930s	aggressively playing inside the zone and
9932s	will hunt teams inside of it but it
9934s	looks like this might be kind of a
9937s	double-edged sword for them as ewg finds
9939s	them trying to come in from the Zone
9941s	after j-team was able to find a pick and
9943s	that's gonna be it for Eagle we're gonna
9944s	see 101 TN transform here looking to
9947s	lock up Xiao Liu here into the Zone on
9951s	that you Asian but xiaolu able to find a
9953s	little bit of an aerial here
9954s	unfortunately that grapple not finding
9956s	its Mark but also 101 Tien not finding
9959s	his Mark with the slam forced to go and
9961s	head towards the edge of the Zone here
9963s	as the Zone tip continues to Pummel
9965s	damage down onto both of these teams ewg
9968s	though with the the numbers Advantage
9970s	will find themselves back into the Zone
9972s	here and we're going to see Team te
9974s	going head-to-head with wbg inside the
9977s	realm of Yang here very shortly the
9979s	problem as well is that wolves have
9980s	spotted that there are two teams running
9982s	out from that zone and they are
9984s	collapsing in on the members of ewg who
9987s	are actually able to make it into the
9988s	Zone in time the same cannot be said for
9990s	J team they will go down to the zone as
9993s	we see wolves now coming in with the
9995s	Viper ultimate trying to connect onto
9997s	these members Tammy ultimate comes on
9999s	first that even if the sun connects
10001s	they're not able to push through the
10002s	wall in time to be able to collapse onto
10004s	those members can cast out on the side
10006s	of ewg which on wall is going to be
10008s	coming up as well as that Euro F ability
10010s	to throw in to make sure no hot top from
10012s	the range but this is the Decatur
10013s	ultimate it collapses onto lxx there's
10015s	no Viper ultimate to buy yourself store
10017s	potential and it's absolute all Hands-On
10021s	deck to claps onto that Viper as
10023s	Alliance now descend onto the players
10025s	pushing back onto wolves finding a
10028s	little bit of time to be able to look
10030s	through that body and allowing each wpg
10033s	an escape that they really needed
10036s	yeah ewg there was in quite the
10039s	precarious situation and while that
10041s	fight broke out we watched team te
10043s	absolutely obliterate uh team wbg in the
10047s	kill feed there if you noticed almost as
10049s	soon as that fight breaks out in the
10050s	realm of Yang you see Sleepwalker
10053s	eliminated to a repeating crossbow I'd
10055s	be willing to bet that uh txj here on
10058s	this repeating crossbow has got uh
10059s	Barbed bolts and Venom tip for that
10062s	crossbow with how fast wbg Sleepwalker
10064s	disappears inside that realm of Yang
10067s	yeah
10068s	funny right that what should be the
10070s	Transformer counter composition probably
10072s	does less damage to a fully jaded up
10074s	repeating crossbow
10077s	like oh you monks aren't terrified about
10080s	yodels anymore no what they truly fear
10082s	is the legendary repeating crossbow
10084s	fully equipped with all of the soldiers
10086s	to make sure that that monk just does
10088s	not have a good day especially in those
10090s	gate of yangs especially if you're
10091s	running that kurumi composition right
10093s	where you don't really have that temmie
10095s	to be able to just drop the ultimate and
10097s	stop those repeating crossbow Bolts from
10099s	hammering into your Monk's health bar as
10101s	we now move over to ewg who were granted
10104s	that escape by Alliance coming in for
10107s	the third party to push back onto wolves
10109s	who'd taken their opportunity once again
10111s	playing a little bit more hyper
10113s	aggressively like they really had an
10114s	idea of ewg's position but they didn't
10117s	take that little bit of a cool down
10118s	period to see whether or not other teams
10121s	were nearby in the vicinity to punish
10123s	the fact that when the Viper ultimate
10124s	had come through it didn't find that
10126s	immediate flight closing out set up for
10129s	the Yodo that wolves were looking to set
10131s	into place unfortunately that semi
10133s	ultimate bought them a little bit of
10135s	time as we do get to see the replay come
10136s	through let's have a look at
10137s	sleepwalker's Health there's a repeating
10139s	crossbow there's the poison Splash Tech
10141s	in there goes sleepwalker's health bar
10143s	yeah that Venom tip absolutely putting
10146s	in work you watched Sleepwalker
10147s	literally go from Full HP to half in
10150s	just a few ticks coming out from that
10152s	repeating crossbow we see the repeating
10154s	crossbow coming through again and the
10156s	Venom tip going to do work to the health
10158s	bar there as the poison that picks him
10160s	up while he's in full armor and wbg's
10163s	left with just Jing here into this fight
10166s	and no matter how hard he fights here
10168s	it's not gonna be enough as he's fully
10169s	locked down by the members of Team te
10171s	and they pick up a set of legendary and
10173s	nunchucks for txj here which is gonna be
10176s	huge for them coming into the late game
10178s	that damage on those monk slams going to
10181s	be absolutely massive turning now to wbg
10184s	looking to pick up at least a single
10186s	soul Bloom here the final member or a
10188s	member of wolves who's completely
10190s	separated from the others they will get
10192s	a single soul Bloom here so wbg not
10195s	completely eliminated they do actually
10198s	have 9k a piece as well so they will be
10201s	able to buy back their remaining members
10203s	now that one of their members will not
10206s	die to the Yang depletion they can just
10209s	get their teammates back in very smart
10211s	plays coming out from wbg also very
10213s	lucky that they were able to find a
10215s	member of Team wolves completely
10216s	separated uh from the rest of the team
10219s	yeah they're also able to find a bounty
10221s	so that they were able to attract poor
10223s	Benji's position before he goes down you
10225s	just see that red dot above his head so
10227s	even if he was able to try and disengage
10229s	you know that wbg are just going to
10231s	relentlessly haunt that one player down
10232s	unfortunately for them they are actually
10235s	taking themselves into a fight against
10236s	Alliance and another team at the moment
10238s	so third parties going to be available
10240s	tell me ultimate coming through very
10243s	early on as we see Transformers coming
10244s	out from a line trying to be hounded
10247s	away as wbg steeple could go through a
10249s	transformation of his own is chased Away
10251s	by the temi ultimate to try and find
10253s	anyone who was hanging a little bit
10255s	further down pushing onto the members
10257s	perhaps hiding in and looking for that
10260s	third party opportunity holding onto
10261s	their ultimates a little bit longer as
10263s	alliance's zuan does still have that UE
10265s	ultimate is covering so that lucky can
10267s	actually disengage and look for a reset
10269s	try and push back with some of that
10271s	range it is going to be dropping fairly
10273s	quickly now however and you haven't
10275s	really bought the space for Lynn to be
10277s	able to escape this is the key player
10279s	might have been able to get Bell back on
10281s	cooldown but it's still going to be
10282s	extremely problematic because wbg
10284s	Sleepwalker goes down GG coming for a
10287s	third party this is the team that I told
10289s	you to watch from when it came to
10290s	sniping out those players that are
10292s	extremely low they seriously ball could
10293s	go super low they know that the Bell is
10295s	gone and they swapped into the bow and
10298s	land the shot
10299s	yeah absolutely GG here this is what
10301s	they're really known for right they're
10303s	able to pick up those sort of uh
10305s	scraggler eliminations off of other
10308s	teams who aren't able to secure them
10311s	quite as fast and they pad their score
10313s	line with it very well and then have an
10315s	explosive final Circle because they
10317s	really do know how to play the final
10319s	Circle quite well 330 being one of the
10322s	best monk players in the league if you
10324s	can pad your score line heading into
10326s	that final Circle just by picking off
10328s	those sort of easy eliminations that
10330s	other teams aren't able to finish off
10331s	you put yourself in a situation where if
10334s	you have an explosive final Circle
10336s	you're not having to race so many of
10338s	these other teams because you already
10340s	have that padded score line and you're
10342s	able to just maintain an easy consistent
10344s	lead see here's team te now getting
10348s	pushed onto by ewg who's coming down the
10350s	cliff but this really not a fight ewg
10353s	wants to take team tees in such a good
10355s	situation here ewg though more looking
10358s	to secure the is Moore's blessing is
10360s	they immediately burn the temi oh and
10363s	Zhou able to pick up that legendary
10364s	armor absolutely Master for them
10366s	somebody able to grab the legendary
10368s	Cannon as well and Zhao you more than
10372s	happy to back off here ewg secures this
10374s	they burn the ultimate for it they need
10376s	to go into cooldown mode now right they
10378s	need to burn those rain shots uh off of
10380s	their temi two tick needs to start
10382s	Landing some of those so he can build
10383s	the rage back up so the full team can
10385s	have ultimates available for this next
10387s	stage coming in as zone four gets ready
10389s	to collapse onto zone five and these
10391s	teams get ready to be pushed together
10393s	that said only 24 players left remaining
10396s	alive right now far less than we're used
10398s	to seeing here in these final circles
10400s	typically we're in the 30 to 34 range uh
10403s	heading into zone five so quite a few
10406s	teams have taken some huge hits uh in
10410s	this particular game as the pace has
10412s	been increased and I think a lot of that
10414s	being due to uh teams like team wolves
10417s	who pressured on to some of those fights
10419s	where they thought they had the third
10420s	party and then end up getting fourth
10422s	party themselves yeah this is why you
10424s	really do want to have some flick Mystic
10426s	might around on you if you do want to go
10428s	for that hyper aggressive play because
10430s	you get that constant tick that constant
10432s	knowledge of okay we're safe we can burn
10434s	our ultimates we can hold ourselves in
10435s	this fight for as long as it takes to
10437s	actually finish it as opposed to burning
10440s	an ultimate maybe seeing if you find a
10441s	prick not getting that pick and then
10443s	having to reposition because you like
10445s	you said you don't know if you are about
10446s	to get third or four for even fifth
10448s	partied and it really does sort of play
10450s	again into and I'm gonna say it and I'm
10452s	sure you're probably gonna disagree with
10454s	me because at the start you said I'm not
10455s	sure about this composition that zip
10457s	Decay to tell me they're all surviving
10460s	they're all still going to be up and
10461s	running they all have that sort of
10463s	separate survivability to their name as
10465s	well so even if they get staggered and
10467s	isolated away from each other they have
10469s	the means to be able to buy time
10471s	necessary the zip with a bubblesome
10473s	obviously the ultimate the Decatur with
10474s	the Stagger logs in the tummy with the
10476s	ultimate and also they'll always be able
10477s	to catch on to any players that actually
10479s	try and chase after him they have the
10481s	means to be able to buy the time for the
10482s	reposition for those other two men of
10484s	the team to be able to catch up the same
10486s	cannot be said for some of these
10487s	compositions where if you burn things
10489s	like the UE ultimate or even the Fifi
10491s	Mac you're not going to be able to
10493s	reposition in time to be able to save
10494s	some of your teammates and like we said
10496s	the Transformer composition is always at
10499s	its weakest no matter what they're
10500s	running into if you don't have all three
10502s	players alive to actually support that
10503s	Monk
10504s	oh yeah absolutely and it's it I
10507s	wouldn't even disagree with you right
10508s	given what were you talking about uh
10510s	beforehand with how the Viper comp
10512s	really just isn't as strong into the
10513s	Transformer comp as it used to be I
10515s	still think the cicada comp is a better
10517s	pick than that regardless of the map I
10519s	just think this isn't quite uh the map
10522s	to bring it into with the lack of
10523s	fireflies on it but if you still have to
10526s	pick that or the Viper comp you pick the
10528s	Takata cop quite honestly and it's it's
10530s	shown very well that that particular
10532s	comp is serving them well in the moment
10535s	the question is going to be is will they
10537s	be able to survive and kind of put
10539s	together the number of kills that they
10541s	really need to in the final Circle
10543s	they've done well in the early to mid
10545s	game they've got eight eliminations
10547s	under their belt right now but the
10549s	question is is in that final Circle
10551s	versus so many Transformers will they be
10554s	able to catch those Transformer teams
10556s	out who are lacking a member or will
10558s	they be the team that one of them gets
10560s	grabbed up and the separation of the
10562s	team does them in yeah I think it's
10564s	really going to be imperative as well
10566s	for them to have that prior positioning
10567s	already you can see that they are
10569s	looking for that position they want to
10570s	have this High Ground Control so that
10572s	when the Transformer comes do come
10574s	through they have that ledge to be able
10575s	to break line the site away from
10576s	generally coming in with that long sword
10578s	pressure with that Phoenix Glass going
10580s	to actually bait jdg into using that
10583s	ultimate forcing jdd into throwing in
10586s	these ultimates kurumi AOE as well to be
10589s	able to retain this positioning on The
10590s	High Ground that's two ultimates burn
10592s	and unfortunately they don't really have
10594s	the movement to be able to chase after
10596s	the slightly more mobile players who can
10599s	just grapple away burn the ultimate side
10601s	and then turn back in knowing that they
10603s	have far better control of the neutral
10604s	and far better survivability with that
10606s	zip
10607s	yeah absolutely ewg here and a little
10610s	bit of a pickle though with the way the
10611s	Zone's collapsing they had that High
10613s	Ground here on the top side of the cliff
10615s	but now that they're being forced down
10617s	they're gonna be forced into a much less
10619s	favorable position here and into the
10621s	middle of some of these Transformers
10622s	comp with little to no cover there's a
10625s	lot of bamboo around here but all of
10626s	this bamboo you know doesn't block
10629s	anything right you walk up to it you can
10631s	just walk straight through it ewg
10632s	actually gonna get stunned out in the
10634s	edge of the Zone here thankfully the
10636s	Transformer comp on the other side
10638s	actually buying them enough space that
10640s	the other team forced to wooch an old
10642s	out and almost immediately 3 30 turns
10646s	around and finds the double grab onto
10649s	ewg two tick and Zhao Liu go down and
10653s	this is what I was talking about if one
10655s	of those members can get picked out here
10657s	all of a sudden the advantage that that
10659s	particular Takeda cop brings into the
10661s	final Circle goes away and that's
10664s	exactly what we see happen here as G G's
10667s	3 30 again and one of the League's best
10669s	monk just finds the opportunity onto the
10671s	double grab then the re-grab and ewg
10674s	finds themselves one player left
10676s	standing here in the final Circle for
10679s	game number three I'm just gonna just
10681s	like sit and let that grab onto the lunk
10684s	that Bells
10687s	and then you go for the grab once the
10689s	ball's evaporated just to settle in the
10691s	air for a moment as the pray for it
10693s	really is just a very impressive
10694s	multiplayer Alliance impressively have
10697s	still been able to keep one of their
10698s	players hidden in the purple Bush they
10700s	have not been spotted out in the middle
10701s	of all of the noise that is going on
10703s	around them is every single play and I
10705s	just doesn't want to get grabbed out by
10707s	these monks things out for aowi just
10709s	trying to stay as aerial as possible out
10711s	of line of sight using those bamboos not
10713s	to break line of sight for the punches
10715s	but to literally break line of sight so
10717s	that he goes unnoticed stealth not 20 as
10719s	peripheral has another Monk
10721s	transformation is looking to just
10723s	hostage situation these players you
10725s	either keep yourself in the zone or you
10727s	walk into the Monk and you fight into
10728s	the double grapper he doesn't find the
10730s	slam txj with the last remaining Blitz
10732s	of his helper is able to connect that
10734s	grab so that he doesn't actually find
10736s	the double slam opportunity but
10738s	peripheral has survived his ultimate the
10740s	same cannot be said for the other monkey
10742s	now we see a viperock come through from
10744s	things out who was able to keep himself
10746s	Alive by going Ariel doesn't manage to
10748s	find the stone that they're looking for
10749s	us Unfortunately they don't have any
10751s	follow-up no Yoda ultimate to burst
10753s	through the members that actually get
10754s	stunned out and will very quickly go
10757s	down as the ultimate drains through GD
10760s	trying to find control at the moment
10761s	kakaishi just with that transformation
10763s	trying to find these grams onto any
10764s	player that's looking to hide around the
10766s	sidelines looking for that Central belt
10768s	push as he is currently getting pushed
10770s	onto by te it is a lot of damage coming
10773s	through onto the legs he's not really
10775s	able to find the scoop-ups as a result
10776s	as GG using that Phoenix blast into
10779s	hepta from this gear controlling a lot
10782s	of this fight pushing everyone away from
10784s	contesting for E3 oh and setting in
10786s	place the monk to be able to try and
10787s	find these grabs onto the receding backs
10789s	of players as they try and push out from
10791s	that long sword damage doesn't match to
10793s	find any grabs however so now has to try
10795s	and survive until the ultimate is back
10797s	online swaps over to the can trying to
10799s	build his rage as quickly as possible
10801s	but doesn't find the opening as Here
10803s	Comes te the UV ultimate from lyd
10805s	pushing him outside of the own the slam
10808s	connects the monk goes down he's not
10810s	able to tap Dodge out of it and as a
10812s	result PE with all three members alive
10814s	now just look to Corral these players
10817s	either into the UI slams or walking into
10818s	that zone tick which is just absolutely
10820s	brutal this later in the game as lyd is
10824s	able to dodge away from the follow slam
10826s	of the greater doesn't get punted into
10828s	the Zone his own strategy not going to
10830s	be turned against him as te have done
10832s	enough they've bought themselves the
10833s	time to be able to cycle back into a
10835s	Transformer ultimate back into a kurumi
10837s	ultimate and now they get to hold their
10839s	ground as jjh Scamper around their feet
10842s	trying not to be picked up
10844s	oh my goodness we got to talk about the
10846s	target selection coming out from lyd
10849s	here knowing that 330 has lost that monk
10853s	transformation watched how long team GG
10856s	was able to just hold control of the
10858s	Zone because of 330 and utilizing the uh
10862s	Channel not to cover the rest of his
10864s	team but to go ahead and put the highest
10866s	threat out of the lobby miskia here with
10869s	the uh Channel unfortunately just being
10871s	kept into the zone as all three members
10873s	of Team te Blitz them down te gonna be
10875s	walking away yet again two games here uh
10880s	gonna be walking away our Mbps today and
10882s	I mean this was textbook coming out from
10885s	Team de they lose txj but txj when he's
10888s	in the monk is able to bop 330. keeps 3
10892s	30 from getting the double slam on to
10894s	the remaining members of Team te keeps
10897s	the rest of Team te alive vvv very
10900s	easily able to just tether on to txj and
10903s	get him back into to the game with a
10905s	quick resurrection and then lyd with his
10908s	Target selection immediately puts 3 30
10910s	out of the game and a te takes control
10913s	of the final Zone like it's no problem
10916s	as soon as 3 30 is gone and man it's
10918s	just they these guys need to write a
10921s	textbook on how to play a final Circle
10922s	in naraka with this monk comp because
10925s	they are insane you gotta remember
10927s	they're not opting to run Feria like all
10931s	these other comps are they're running
10933s	the strictly traditional Transformer
10936s	comp with you a Sean and kurumi and
10939s	still buying massive amounts of points
10942s	for their team
10943s	but it should be remembered as well like
10945s	they are traditionalists in the sense of
10948s	they've been around the raka and the
10949s	poison for a very very long time they
10952s	were the first world champions and so it
10955s	definitely makes sense that they would
10956s	stick to the swimsuit this is the
10958s	composition that we already know inside
10960s	and out why would we bring outside
10962s	factors in when we are this confident
10965s	that we're going to be able to counter
10967s	whatever comes our way they're already
10969s	used to being able to deal with the
10971s	Viper and the wuchan and the Yodo now
10974s	all they have to do is make sure that
10976s	they staggered their ultimates around
10978s	being able to once again set txj up into
10980s	motion so that he doesn't have to worry
10983s	about those barriers that's the only
10985s	thing that they have to be concerned
10987s	about and a lot of it again comes down
10989s	to that kurumi this kurumi has been
10991s	absolutely instrumental in allowing that
10995s	monk to just sit there and stand and
10998s	retain that position because a lot of
10999s	the time right when we see this
11001s	composition come through we talk about
11002s	ultimate pacing the kurumi should wait
11005s	for the ultimate until that monkhouse
11007s	starts dropping below 50 but what we're
11010s	seeing at the moment because they
11011s	understand how much damage you can be
11014s	bursted down when you go for that
11015s	initial transmission as a monk from the
11017s	repeating crossbow or from enemy for
11019s	years around you the kurumi ultimate
11021s	comes out almost immediately and it
11023s	means that txj doesn't have to spend
11024s	time looking for reposition when he gets
11026s	contested instead he's constantly being
11029s	healed up in the ultimate and he can
11031s	look to use aggression as his best one
11033s	with defense you know something else I
11036s	really want to talk about with this
11037s	particular comp for team te as well txj
11040s	is not known as one of the better monk
11042s	players in the league yes if you're here
11044s	you're able to Pilot monk you can be a
11047s	very good monk but you're not on the
11049s	level of say eagle or 330 or Sleepwalker
11052s	and that works great for teamte because
11055s	it's actually lyd who seems to be
11058s	carrying this team right the threat of
11060s	the monk Buys lyd so much space to put
11064s	in work and that like we said he has the
11067s	best Target acquisition here he's able
11070s	to identify threats in the lobby and
11072s	immediately push on them with the space
11074s	that txj monking up naturally creates
11077s	and te here again 17 elimination Lobby a
11081s	32.2 game score for these guys team Gigi
11085s	and GG with 10 eliminations each coming
11088s	in at a 19 and a 15.5 uh game score
11091s	respectively unfortunately j-team who's
11093s	trying to catch up to team te the you
11097s	know the two Titans going at it the two
11099s	versions of J team not able to really do
11102s	too much they pick up six eliminations
11104s	and then they get caught out in the zone
11106s	and unfortunately they actually die to
11109s	the Zone in like zone three which is not
11112s	something you particularly see unless a
11113s	team is running for millions and just
11115s	looking to get that reposition and get
11118s	that information on the rest of the map
11120s	but J team forced into the zone as
11122s	wolves in ewg just prevent them from
11125s	doing anything and yet look at this
11128s	again this is what I'm talking about txj
11131s	good monk not one of the best months in
11133s	the league but the threat that the space
11136s	uh from him monkeying up in vvv covering
11140s	him creates for lyd to do what l y d
11144s	does best
11146s	absolutely insane 34
11149s	000 damage for their Eurasia that's
11152s	ridiculous and something else as well
11154s	like lyd whenever we see him in this
11157s	transformation it doesn't really feel
11159s	like he's being crushes and again that
11161s	goes back to just the Synergy that's
11162s	left for this team right because txj is
11165s	always going for this monk is very
11167s	quickly being put into a kurumi ultimate
11169s	as well it means that so much goes on to
11172s	dealing with the monk that lyd gets a
11175s	free pass
11176s	yeah absolutely and that's exactly what
11178s	I'm talking about is the TX Giant and
11180s	vvv are just creating space for lyd to
11184s	do what lyd's does right and even when
11188s	txj isn't again one of the best monks in
11190s	the league he's not picking up double
11192s	grabs back to back like Saint GG's 330.
11195s	he knows how to utilize that old to
11197s	cover his team he was able to pick up
11200s	the Slam against GG's 330 which kept him
11203s	from getting the double slam and
11205s	eliminating team te and even though he
11208s	dies to that vvv once again able to
11211s	cover the weakness in txj's monk get him
11214s	back into the game and you as Sean lyd
11218s	immediately picking up the threat 330 is
11221s	the threat picks him out finds him
11223s	towards the edge of the Zone puts him
11225s	into the zone and completely denies him
11228s	access back in and says if you want back
11231s	in you have to go through me is able to
11233s	pick up that elimination and then all of
11235s	a sudden three TGG completely loses
11238s	control of the circle team t e picks it
11240s	up here take a look at BVB here look at
11242s	this 27
11245s	000 healing that's a lot of healing for
11248s	a kurumi
11250s	[Music]
11251s	and again like every
11258s	ultimate to just be able to cover and
11260s	smoke screen your monk away from and it
11263s	really goes to show like this is the
11265s	team that runs a very gamble heavy
11267s	composition but it's a composition that
11269s	works out perfectly because of the trust
11271s	that they have in each other
11272s	yeah absolutely but ladies and gentlemen
11274s	we're gonna come back for game four very
11276s	shortly but first you want to throw
11277s	things over the egg for another
11278s	interview
11281s	hey guys this is Jager and welcome
11284s	and now I'm here standing with vvv and
11287s	let them say hello to our audience
11295s	so first because we are standing here
11299s	and look at the scoreboard together and
11301s	we know that you got the MVP so I would
11304s	like to know how you're feeling now
11305s	magance
11317s	to me
11318s	foreign
11331s	I also can get MVP I'm very excited okay
11335s	let's move on to the next part answer
11337s	for treasure okay so now machines
11344s	so you guys can see a question on the
11347s	screen and if you know the answer just
11350s	type them in the chat box after our
11352s	player counting three two one we will
11354s	take a screenshot and the lucky guy
11357s	today will be whispered okay so let's
11360s	look at today's question is
11362s	how many teams will be qualified to the
11365s	B weekly final now
11380s	please
11390s	okay I think our player is prepared and
11394s	let's start counting three two one
11398s	screenshot okay so pay attention to your
11401s	mailbox let's find out the correct
11408s	so the correct answer is B okay and
11412s	because we are going to have the B
11414s	weekly final and we know to the new
11417s	season a lot of teams just change their
11419s	teammate I would like to know so for
11421s	your teams do you have any challenges in
11424s	the B weekly final for like these teams
11427s	who just change their their teammates
11448s	foreign
11459s	don't think I think we are very
11461s	confident and I'm not very taken care of
11464s	these new teams actually I think the
11468s	pressure will still from these old teams
11471s	who didn't change the teammate okay so
11473s	we still have three other games and I
11476s	would like to say good luck to teams te
11478s	and also good luck to the B weekly final
11480s	now
11488s	thank you we will be for today's
11491s	interview and we will take a break and
11493s	be right back later
11504s	thank you
11511s	trying to find an opening fighter
11513s	overholds
11514s	playing extremely aggressively
11519s	oh
11521s	wait a minute here we have it the one
11523s	shot and there it is
11533s	trying to get some heals up he's gonna
11534s	get D-Max here soon though
11536s	Olay has builds up enough charge he goes
11539s	for the goombasta triple charge staggers
11544s	I wouldn't be damaged coming out
11547s	oh but two two five gets demaged first
11549s	oh my God
11555s	[Music]
11558s	have an advantage over over dagger is
11561s	that when you're chasing this what
11563s	spider is doing
11565s	is exactly what I do what's something I
11568s	would do in season one
11570s	looking for these scale rushes delaying
11576s	[Music]
11581s	come again putting a lot of pressure on
11584s	the bugs fun with the Goomba stump Mike
11586s	just getting
11589s	taken down so unbelievably low he
11591s	manages to get his alt down but doesn't
11593s	opt to get inside of it since he's
11595s	inside a building he wouldn't be able to
11597s	get out again on the flame Bridge
11600s	[Music]
11612s	the flower
11614s	Wang length
11619s	[Music]
11661s	thank you
11662s	[Music]
11680s	[Music]
11702s	foreign
11705s	[Music]
11736s	thank you
11737s	[Music]
11770s	[Music]
11779s	foreign
11783s	as we take a look here at our current
11786s	scores three games deep of our six games
11788s	four trios today taking a look at our
11792s	bottom teams here in unfortunately
11794s	Ventus not really able to find the
11796s	momentum uh they're hoping for today
11798s	with the 26.2 close to uh their score
11801s	for day one they do still have three
11803s	games left here today so maybe they can
11805s	make something happen at Team wolves
11807s	unfortunately falling drastically behind
11809s	their day one performance and they
11811s	needed to come in today doing even
11813s	better than they did in day one an
11816s	alliance falling even further behind
11819s	than that in their performance here in
11821s	day two Jay team able to put together a
11823s	38.8 score line thus far but not quite
11826s	able uh to get their hands on uh the
11829s	scoreline that they desperately need to
11830s	catch up to team te
11833s	jjh also struggling today in the face of
11837s	Team te wbg keeping with the theme of
11841s	consistency though
11843s	with a total of 40.3 points for their
11845s	first three games today e w g another
11849s	team that's done very well for
11851s	themselves today but have struggled to
11852s	make it to those end game circles that
11856s	they desperately want and team JL with
11859s	only
11859s	18.7 definitely riding on their
11863s	performance from their first day here in
11865s	the nbpl team at te though has already
11869s	surpassed their day one performance here
11871s	with only three games under their belt
11874s	as they quickly take the second place
11876s	position here likes of team at KLA and
11880s	they still have three games left to play
11882s	today they can easily put 40 points on
11884s	the board if they walk away with another
11886s	MVP maxi
11890s	composition he is going to lean onto
11892s	next because like that is the thing that
11894s	we have in truth right we have those
11895s	hero Point rules so at some point te is
11899s	going to have to step away from the
11900s	traditional Transformer composition of
11902s	the monk of the kurumi of that UE
11905s	because they have continued to run it
11907s	without any deviation and Fields
11910s	something else and I think that's when
11911s	we're really going to see this team
11912s	tested we've seen what their strength is
11914s	now we get to see whether or not they
11916s	can adapt that same strength and Synergy
11918s	to a different composition entirely
11920s	because something that you and I were
11922s	talking about in between the break is
11924s	the fact that a lot of these players are
11926s	old God they're very used and rehearsed
11928s	to how these Heroes play how these
11930s	Heroes click together in terms of that
11932s	composition what is going to happen when
11935s	all of those years of experience on
11937s	those Heroes has to be transferred over
11939s	to other Heroes I don't think they're
11941s	gonna suffer I don't think they're going
11942s	to struggle vvv I'm still gonna say it
11944s	right now is one of the best vipers and
11946s	I think if anyone can make that Viper
11949s	Yoda wuchen composition still work vvv
11952s	is the one Viper that I can trust to put
11954s	that back on the table you know honestly
11957s	there's also still an option on the
11958s	table for them to run this Transformer
11960s	comp again because they could run the
11961s	Transformer comp one more time be low on
11964s	hero points but play into that Viper
11967s	comp and then follow it up with the
11969s	Takeda comp on it to the sort of dusk
11972s	map where they have access to more of
11973s	those fireflies without utilizing any
11976s	hero points whatsoever so it's going to
11978s	be interesting to see if they go that
11980s	route or not but like you said I think
11982s	if anybody can pilot that sort of Viper
11984s	comp and make it work it is going to be
11987s	vvv right we're talking about one of the
11990s	best vipers in the league they're able
11992s	to come in and make huge impactful stuns
11995s	happen with Viper that said of course
11997s	that comp still kind of falling heavily
11999s	out of favor here but it's going to be
12001s	interesting to see which decision they
12003s	do make and whether they end up running
12005s	the Transformers comp one more time and
12008s	taking the risk by running two different
12010s	comps for their final games I think it's
12012s	interesting as well when you look at how
12014s	that Viper composition sort of initiated
12016s	into fights last season in comparison to
12019s	this season because what we haven't
12021s	really got to see from those Viper
12022s	ultimates is the drop down of that no
12025s	one's found High Ground charged up the
12027s	ultimate and then drop down slap bang
12029s	into the middle of a team fight and I
12031s	think a huge part of it is because of
12032s	the amount of monks that we have in this
12034s	Lobby obviously Yodo is susceptible to
12037s	being grabbed but so too is Viper in
12040s	that charge up State and as a result in
12042s	these really long heavy compositions a
12045s	lot of these Viper players don't get
12046s	that same room to breathe to set those
12048s	ultimates into position and as a result
12051s	they're not finding that same level of
12053s	stage the same amount of stunts
12054s	connecting onto these players to be able
12056s	to snowball into that Yodo coming
12058s	through with the burst damage to be able
12059s	to control the fight after
12061s	yeah absolutely and I mean one of the
12064s	big things as well with Viper right now
12066s	is just there's not enough follow-up
12068s	from that particular team comp anymore
12070s	to really cover the stun right because
12073s	there's so many options with Feria to be
12075s	able to drop those pillars and just kind
12077s	of counteract anything that comes
12079s	through including a yodel ultimate so
12081s	you can drop in get that huge sort of
12084s	tactical nuke we always talk about and
12086s	stun half the lobby but you're only able
12088s	to follow it up realistically onto one
12090s	kill and given with fairy a pillar being
12093s	a thing now uh you're more likely to
12096s	give other teams more eliminations than
12098s	you can pick up off of your own Viper
12100s	ultimate it struggles for that comp
12103s	because of that really they need to find
12106s	a new hero to sort of slot in to that
12109s	sort of composition to make something
12111s	happen this season oh okay well they
12113s	they can't this season but they should
12117s	probably start to maybe experiment with
12119s	something else it's just kind of hard to
12120s	do during the bi-weekly you need to get
12124s	that relevant data and see how these
12127s	particular comps are working out for you
12129s	before you make that sort of decision to
12131s	kind of jump ship uh though at this
12133s	point a lot of these teams kind of
12135s	trying to favor a way from these Viper
12138s	comps because it's clearly not working
12139s	out uh the way they've expected it to in
12143s	the early wink because of Feria coming
12145s	into these Transformers comp that said
12148s	still still great to see classic
12151s	Transformer comp coming through because
12153s	kurumi buys you so much protection and
12157s	into those realm of yangs which are
12159s	hyper important for these teams to go
12161s	ahead and kind of pad their score lines
12162s	get the gear that that Transformer comp
12164s	really needs it works extremely well for
12168s	them to be able to pick up eliminations
12170s	get through the mid game with a ton of
12173s	eliminations and then go to late game
12175s	and still be a hyper aggressive late
12177s	game comp too yeah and some of these
12179s	teams have sort of entered into
12180s	symbiotic relationships with these gated
12182s	gangs they don't go for the fights
12185s	instead they like wait around a mill to
12187s	see who loses where they're going to
12190s	Seoul Altar and who is going to be in
12192s	that really desperate position that they
12193s	hard commit into a fight and we have the
12196s	teams that immediately try and pants on
12197s	those players and then we have the teams
12199s	that try and distance themselves a
12200s	little bit and look to come in for those
12201s	third parties teams like je like 17 JL
12205s	like a GD and not really unfortunately
12207s	wolves wolves are very much suffering
12209s	from that early point of aggression
12211s	however now that we've grown through a
12213s	couple of our hero points some of these
12215s	teams still going to be committing to
12217s	the monk compositions some of these
12220s	teams still gonna be committing to the
12221s	monk but trying to put him in with a
12224s	cicada and a zip so you still have that
12227s	survivability that cover and support
12229s	very similar to a kurumi coming out from
12231s	that zip and then you have that cover of
12234s	the Takeda ultimate very similar to
12236s	something like the yui just pushing away
12239s	constantly threatening very similar to
12241s	how we saw te and lyd finding so much
12245s	success in that last match in that final
12247s	Zone
12248s	yeah absolutely and no surprise your te
12250s	gonna be running Dakota comp here into
12253s	this particular uh Dawn map for Morris
12255s	Isle a lot of these Takata comps coming
12258s	through as well
12259s	JL I don't know how I feel about this we
12262s	saw another team run this particular
12264s	comp uh earlier in the week where you're
12266s	still running the Monk and using some of
12269s	those Transformers JL fortunately still
12271s	has a lot of those hero points left
12274s	coming in here so they can afford to do
12276s	this but the Takeda and monk not really
12279s	synergizing with each other very well
12282s	they want to kind of run at these
12284s	opposite speeds so it's hard for them to
12286s	cover for one another that one another
12289s	especially going into those sort of
12292s	hectic final circles where if your
12293s	team's not in sync it spells absolute
12296s	disaster for you I'm gonna be interested
12298s	as well to see if these cicadas hold
12300s	their ultimates try and stagger one that
12302s	Faria F V3 comes through so that even
12305s	when the pillow goes down they're still
12307s	not actually able to get into the neck
12309s	in time because Decatur throws them back
12311s	and allows the other two teammates who
12313s	immediately converge talking about
12315s	immediately converging we are going to
12317s	have a very very fast fight kicking off
12320s	challenge is gonna have a little bit of
12321s	action but it's uh definitely not the
12324s	same sort of fight that's going to be
12326s	going down in the Northwestern part of
12329s	this map as it is going to be te once
12331s	again the winners that we start to fall
12332s	off with but for immediately swapping
12334s	over to gravitate towards that big old
12336s	dust up wbg once again finding
12338s	themselves in a very early aggressive
12340s	fight against Juventus but also ewg DD
12344s	as well gonna be able to come up in the
12346s	kill feed but ventis the sounds are
12347s	trying to lock down these members at the
12349s	moment coming with the speed go and be
12350s	pushed back by a really good Bell to
12352s	come on through from wbg but they're
12354s	still able to whip that staff push PP up
12357s	into the air catching them out in the
12359s	charged up right click but PP is able to
12361s	turn it around on them still hasn't gone
12363s	down the zip ultimate doing so much to
12366s	guarantee that he's able to survive
12367s	again and however the staff finds its
12370s	prey pushing someone up into the air
12371s	controlling them not allowing them to go
12374s	back to the rest of the team so no
12375s	position to peel for and the zip gets
12377s	focused down yeah turning now to team te
12380s	and team KZ KZ uh had a nice lock down
12383s	there on te for a minute with the
12385s	dragons rush into the nez's might but
12387s	able to come back in Te locks that
12390s	player down immediately deletes them and
12393s	picks up a second elimination te going
12395s	at two for o here not even losing a
12398s	single member there to team KZ Alliance
12400s	now going in onto jjh Lynn picking up
12404s	that elimination but needs to be careful
12406s	here as the rest of jdg shows up and
12410s	Alliance finds himself in a bad third
12411s	party gonna use the Wu channel to get
12413s	both of his teammates out trying to get
12416s	the potential double Resurrection here
12418s	but we're gonna see jdg immediately push
12420s	in on to jjh here and that is gonna be
12423s	it for jjh as they get sent back to the
12426s	soul altar they're gonna need to go
12428s	ahead and use those resurrections early
12430s	here in a game number four now Alliance
12434s	pushing
12435s	go ahead the Lions now that they had
12437s	those two resurrections to come through
12438s	pushing back on to jdg the Viper
12441s	actually is able to connect on to the
12442s	members and we're so early on in the
12444s	game that the armor isn't good enough
12446s	for jdg to be able to sustain through
12448s	the follow-up damage coming through from
12449s	Alliance purple dagger onto Lin's side
12452s	allows them to be able to absolutely
12454s	mince the health bars an alliance of
12456s	some really good smart play from Lynn in
12458s	the long term able to just back on out
12461s	get the resurrections see the third
12463s	party come through wait for their
12464s	opportunity and strike when the iron's
12466s	hot
12467s	yeah a huge blue Channel there for team
12469s	Alliance being able to go ahead and get
12471s	those uh free resurrections off without
12474s	having to use their uh early response so
12477s	they have those resource to continue to
12479s	push on and play aggressive and this is
12480s	what we kind of talked about uh during
12482s	the last game here is that this Viper
12484s	comp that used to be a mid to late game
12486s	comp now in early to mid game comp where
12489s	they want to sort of take these fights
12491s	where it's much harder for these
12492s	Transformer comps to get those
12494s	staggering olds off and Pad their score
12496s	line before going into the late game to
12498s	pick up as much multiplier as humanly
12500s	possible so Alliance being able to pick
12502s	up five eliminations there and still
12504s	have that resource of that early game
12506s	Resurrection available to them is going
12508s	to allow them to continue to play with
12510s	that aggression while still having a
12512s	safety net and utilized this comp in a
12514s	different way I love to see uh the kind
12517s	of shift in understanding coming from
12519s	these players because you take a comp
12521s	that is typically that mid to late game
12522s	comp and many of these players might
12524s	want to just continue to play that sort
12526s	of pacing and alliances realize no this
12528s	is now an early game comp we need to
12530s	utilize as much of this early to mid
12533s	game as we can to put points on the
12535s	board
12535s	well Ventus may be realizing they're in
12537s	a little bit of a
12538s	if it's too much to drop that Bane's
12540s	breath however and should be able to
12541s	turn it on to J team as a result 101t
12544s	and gets caught away the zip might be
12546s	able to survive for a little bit of time
12548s	to be able to buy a potential
12549s	repositions that case definitely looking
12551s	to try and take advantage of the fact
12553s	that everyone was so occupied trying to
12555s	hunt that ZIP down but pixel is still
12557s	able to figure out where exactly they're
12559s	grappling to doesn't manage to actually
12560s	find the grapple cancel however and the
12563s	Chase has now begun said K dropping down
12565s	trying to break away from line of sight
12567s	as quickly as possible as Ventus to say
12570s	that they're going to be able to try and
12571s	pursue a little bit longer but have
12574s	actually lost sight of where that one
12576s	player could be and as a result we'll
12578s	have to give up the chase eventually ZK
12581s	off of that zip survivability for his
12583s	team will be able to survive and
12587s	potentially look to be able to regroup
12589s	with the rest of his players as GD
12592s	unaligned once again find themselves at
12594s	a loggerhead ultimate from the Viper
12596s	comes on through Judy's kakaishi going
12598s	for that skill to be able to try and
12599s	Escape out of it as quickly as possible
12601s	an alliance seeing that the Viper
12603s	ultimate wasn't the entrance into the
12604s	fight that they were looking for use the
12606s	wuchen TP disengage and I try and punish
12609s	the fact that GD have already used
12612s	kakaishi's ultimate they are not going
12614s	to be able to have it to try and stagger
12616s	lock and isolate these members of
12618s	Alliance if Alliance turned back into
12619s	the fight
12620s	yeah absolutely not turning now to team
12623s	jdg looks like AOW giving a Pursuit here
12627s	the ultimates available for them AOW
12629s	though unfortunately uh has much better
12632s	armor than jdg here so jdg really needs
12635s	to just find their exit from this fight
12637s	find some gear and start looking towards
12640s	some of those Realms of Yang so they can
12642s	pick up the extra gear that they really
12644s	need for the comp that they're running
12646s	here while AOW doesn't have any of that
12649s	disadvantage so they can pressure this
12650s	fight as much as they want team te on
12652s	the other side of the map here though
12653s	with some huge uh upgrades for
12656s	themselves two purple weapons as well as
12658s	two sets of purple armor for them
12659s	already Alliance gonna be finding
12661s	themselves now onto the backside of Team
12663s	GD down here in shipwreck the fog
12666s	creating quite a bit of space is going
12668s	to allow AOW to come in for the
12670s	potential third party but Alliance GD
12672s	are actually going to split in either
12673s	direction and AOW finds himself in a
12676s	position where if they push onto either
12677s	one they will now be the team that's
12679s	going to be third party so they're going
12681s	to back off and look for the reset as
12682s	well GD though has created enough space
12685s	that Alliance might not be able to push
12687s	in onto this if AOW can pick up these
12689s	eliminations early enough and they are
12690s	going to go ahead and pressure into this
12692s	fight and drop a Bane's breath to stop
12694s	the potential third party as well smart
12696s	plays coming in from Alliance who picks
12698s	up the elimination onto gd's kakaishi
12700s	looking to find another elimination here
12702s	unfortunately AOW doesn't seem to be
12705s	able to find it as GD pushes towards
12707s	team Alliance and looks to give some
12709s	free eliminations here just to team
12711s	Alliance Don Queen trying to risk
12713s	running through the Bane's breath here
12715s	in Alliance opting to try to take the
12716s	fight but all of their members gonna
12718s	take huge hit from the Bane Thrift and
12720s	AOW picks up a free elimination off the
12722s	back of it slides in finds the
12724s	elimination onto alliances on as well GD
12728s	here playing this so smart they go into
12730s	alliance they bait Alliance into the
12733s	band's breath and get these two teams to
12735s	fight each other now at least one member
12737s	of Team GD will be able to survive and
12739s	get away from this fight and keep their
12741s	hopes alive here in game number four as
12743s	we see jdg getting ready to push in onto
12746s	team wolves just above them here in
12748s	shipwreck well Viper ultimate comes
12750s	through and actually cancels out who is
12752s	Yodo ultimate early allowing sorrow to
12755s	be able to hit back in with an ultimate
12756s	of their own but a third party comes on
12758s	through from KZ punching the fact that
12760s	both the Viper setup and the Yoda
12761s	finisher has now been invested and
12763s	wolves have no choice but to use that
12765s	which ntp to be able to not just carry
12768s	the can away but to get the full
12770s	reposition it's down below though and
12772s	Casey has spotted out where they've run
12774s	to wind was come through and it does
12776s	mean however that it's all wolves are
12778s	trying to run away from this Viper
12780s	ultimate connecting doesn't manage to
12782s	actually find a connection because of
12783s	the terrain but Casey still with a
12785s	advantage in terms of this fight was on
12788s	the back foot still looking for that
12789s	recovery raspike not wanting to run too
12792s	far into shipwreck in case Alliance are
12794s	still hanging around
12796s	yeah hazy here really trying to pressure
12798s	on to Ben Chu he's been separated from
12800s	the rest of Team well sorrow
12802s	unfortunately goes down as well as these
12804s	two members of KZ keep the pressure on
12807s	to Ben Bennett unfortunately gonna fall
12809s	victim to the Dragon's rush into the
12811s	Neches might now team wolves down to a
12813s	single member we're also gonna see those
12815s	Realms of Yang start to come through and
12816s	it's going to be ewg versus
12819s	wbg here in our first realm of Yang
12822s	fight and it's two Transformers comes
12824s	we're gonna see both two tick and
12826s	Sleepwalker immediately monk up here
12828s	we're gonna see those repeating
12829s	crossbows start to come through here on
12832s	to Sleepwalker Sleepwalker and you need
12833s	to walk into the Demi hole here to buy
12835s	themselves some space to take also on
12837s	the receiving end of some poison Splash
12840s	but it doesn't matter as they're able to
12841s	pick up wbg's Jing and Jing going to
12844s	immediately be deleted PP gonna get
12846s	slammed here as well from two Tech wbg
12849s	finds themselves in quite the pickle
12851s	that repeating crossbow just punching
12853s	through Sleepwalkers HB here's due to
12855s	continue used to pressure four with
12857s	Sleepwalker able to find a grab not able
12859s	to get the slam though as the old G
12861s	transform comes through and it's going
12863s	to be ewg he walks out on top
12866s	now ewg being able to find that win
12869s	against wbg and pick themselves up the
12871s	choice of Buffs as well as the loot
12874s	which arguably is going to be more
12875s	important in the long run of this match
12877s	setting up that Transformer Compass 2
12879s	Tech is going to have already got his
12881s	hands on a legendary staff GG deciding
12884s	that they're actually going to be able
12886s	to just pick up a Morris blessing they
12888s	don't go for that kid of yank they're
12890s	going to be able to pick themselves up
12891s	in Morris blessing as well as a flamer
12893s	which is really honestly great Synergy
12895s	for this composition right the monk
12897s	grabs you up holds you in position the
12899s	flame that comes out and that fire tick
12900s	does all of the work speaking about work
12902s	shipwreck is definitely seeing a lot of
12904s	it today GG and jdg going Toe to Toe GD
12908s	going to be able to push them away and
12910s	buy themselves the time to be able to
12911s	get that Resurrection on 2K that witch
12913s	and TP coming on out very early on as GD
12916s	9 using that to cater ultimate trying to
12918s	hunt down why those member where those
12921s	members scurried off to might actually
12923s	run right past their own double Human
12926s	Instead and it's an ambush oh no okay
12929s	gave that position away in AOL seeing
12932s	that they're in a far better position
12933s	look to isolate K away from the rest of
12936s	his team GD are just gonna have to
12937s	sacrifice this one place so the other
12939s	two can survive the Parry even coming
12941s	through to seal Porky's fate yeah UK
12945s	played this very well though as soon as
12946s	they realized they were isolated turn
12948s	tail and start running the opposite
12950s	direction of the team no communication
12952s	needed whatsoever he knew what happened
12954s	he knew he made a mistake and he wasn't
12956s	going to put that fate on the rest of
12959s	the team because of his mistake going
12961s	wide and separating from the team smart
12963s	plays coming out from GD very
12965s	unfortunate that uh K does go down but
12967s	he's able to be bought back into the
12969s	game uh so much better situation for
12972s	team GD to be in it than all three of
12974s	them dying here as we see ewg here
12976s	trying to pressure in onto this fight
12978s	with team at te and JL the temi ult
12982s	coming through though so ewg just biting
12984s	their time waiting for an optimal moment
12986s	to go ahead and throw this monkult in
12988s	two members of te separated from the
12991s	rest of their team is ewg continues to
12994s	give a pressure here and would see GD is
12997s	able to buy their member back almost
12999s	immediately here team te holding on to
13001s	their own able to regroup here but JL
13004s	also still in this fight as and Fang
13007s	going very very low ewg looking to turn
13009s	their attention onto the members of jlas
13011s	goes extremely low we're gonna see the
13014s	zip ult come through and we're gonna see
13016s	monk Ultra for monk old tier and it
13017s	looks like team te is going to be able
13020s	to completely back away from this fight
13021s	by themselves a reset his ewg and JL go
13025s	head to head JL trying to throw hands on
13028s	to te giving away their position to ewg
13033s	not wanting to give up the fight here
13036s	but team GE really just looking to buy a
13038s	reset Fang in Hot Pursuit but leaves
13042s	jinyu to their own devices in ewg will
13044s	be able to pick up the elimination here
13046s	and team te just trying to keep things
13050s	moving it almost as if JL continuing to
13053s	grief them though so txj gonna be forced
13055s	to turn on to that member of Team JL now
13058s	te able to pick up a member of ewg as
13062s	well it's a 3v2 but team ewg with much
13066s	better armor right now much better HP
13069s	absolutely getting blitzed through
13070s	though by team te as soon as I said that
13073s	the armor disappears from the members of
13075s	ewg and te able to get that separation
13079s	get that reset and even though ewg
13081s	thought they had the full capability of
13085s	winning that fight they burnt too many
13086s	resources in team te flips the script
13089s	and takes the win the good news however
13091s	is that ewg did have have Phoenix so
13094s	they will have a million up they will be
13096s	able to continue on this lobby as well
13098s	as with all of their loot which is why
13100s	they have you committed into chasing
13102s	after the team of te knowing that if
13105s	they went down they would still be able
13106s	to use it as a reposition Soul alter
13108s	comes through and immediately it is
13110s	going to be followed up by a
13111s	transformation wbg immediately off of
13113s	the bat off the transformation finds a
13116s	grab onto one is looking for the double
13118s	might have to just go for the slam but
13120s	Alliance are hounding this Tian already
13122s	his health is about to go below 50 as
13125s	WBT Sleepwalker not able to find the
13127s	opportunity Jing actually taking a lot
13129s	of damage Sleepwalker just trying to
13131s	provide suppressing fire with those
13133s	grabs to keep our lines from actually
13135s	pushing into that side room and picking
13137s	up a play he's able to find one but he
13139s	goes down before he can actually connect
13141s	the grab lucky comes in with the save an
13143s	alliance C wbg off
13146s	I that was a huge play from alliance's
13148s	lucky there into the dagger forced to
13151s	jump to avoid the grab hop swaps into
13153s	the cannon and is able to pick up the
13154s	elimination before the follow-up slam
13156s	comes through onto their teammate lucky
13158s	playing it very well Alliance having a
13161s	good game here finally in game number
13163s	four AOW blitzing through the members of
13165s	KZ but KZ forced to use the woo Channel
13168s	and unfortunately the positioning of the
13170s	Wu Channel actually just puts them back
13171s	behind the members of AOW and into the
13174s	Zone there's not really any place for KZ
13176s	to go except back through the same team
13179s	that they just tried to avoid they're
13181s	quite the misplay coming out from
13184s	Casey's hazley and it's gonna cost them
13185s	dearly as we are going to see all of
13188s	their members go down Jen Left Alive
13190s	here trying to fight this out pink Tao
13192s	is down but uh zhuung and uh Shu Tong
13196s	here able to just keep them off of The
13198s	Zone unfortunately Jen gonna go down to
13201s	the Zone here he's gonna TP out but the
13203s	question is was he able to TP uh out of
13206s	of the Zone if not that zone tick may do
13208s	them in but it looks like he was able to
13209s	get out of the Zone there finally able
13212s	to find a much better uh TP for his team
13215s	oh
13217s	gonna go great as LSR gets powered
13221s	immediately and has to swap towards that
13222s	dagger just using that trash up right
13224s	click to go into a purple to buy
13225s	themselves potentially a little bit of
13227s	time to be able to look for that Dash
13228s	butt that hounded down by jjh from with
13231s	that one kill picked up they're
13233s	immediately gonna Dash back ring that
13235s	Bell get a better idea of the teams
13236s	pushing on through into celestra because
13239s	we get to have a look at this gate by
13240s	going down between GG and ewg do you
13243s	think I miss you are both going to be in
13245s	that Mech form already as Alex and it's
13247s	absolutely hounded by the members of ewg
13250s	trying to get this isolation to try to
13253s	cover fires miscares actually pushed
13255s	behind that pillar loses the neck before
13258s	two tick and as a result this allows so
13260s	much more control of the fight to go
13262s	through for ewg as misk it goes
13264s	extremely low uses that Phantom step to
13266s	be able to tap doji into a Parry is able
13269s	to pick up the Perry but isn't able to
13270s	pick up the kill in ewg see themselves a
13274s	winner of a realm of Yang pick up the
13276s	potentially I mean most likely likely
13278s	Mystic might but more importantly
13280s	legendary shocks for the team to be able
13283s	to have to really make that
13285s	transformation comp have a lot of hurt
13287s	behind its first as GD on not slowing
13290s	down anytime soon they found AOW to
13292s	cater ultimate coming through from
13294s	kakaishi but he's uppercuted away from
13296s	being able to follow up into the Liars
13298s	The Witch ntp to come through and the
13301s	Takeda ultimate does not find the value
13303s	that GD were looking for beautiful play
13305s	coming from AOW
13308s	yeah AOW being very very smart today
13310s	those Wu channels absolutely coming in
13313s	clutch for the team here Ping Tao
13316s	looking to find an out back into this
13319s	fight here with GD but not wanting to
13321s	hyper commit given their use of
13323s	ultimates here just waiting to get this
13325s	sort of Viper old back online here gonna
13328s	come do a little bit of shopping here
13329s	get some things that they desperately
13331s	need for themselves you can see those
13332s	pots ticking up here as pink Dow was
13334s	running pretty low gonna spend quite a
13336s	bit of uh their money there to get some
13338s	pots back in for the team gonna do a
13340s	little bit of Soul Jade searching there
13342s	not quite uh the legendary soldiers they
13345s	were looking for but probably something
13347s	a little useful for the team here as we
13349s	see is Ed K looking to push in here on
13352s	to jdg but it's ewg who's able to pick
13354s	up the elimination on a 2G sorry jdg
13359s	Here and Now j-team gonna back off not
13361s	wanting to full commit into the fight
13363s	with ewg Alliance here once again going
13366s	head to head with Team GGG G very low
13369s	here but Alex M able to pick up the
13371s	elimination on to Lucky Juan though
13374s	putting Alex M into the corner Alex M
13376s	not quite uh pinned down the way Juan
13378s	wants it but they're gonna be forced to
13380s	go ahead and use that wooch ntp to get
13382s	out of here as lxm doesn't find
13385s	themselves just getting locked down in
13387s	the corner the way they wanted to and
13388s	takes control of the fight the Wu
13390s	Channel comes through and team GG is on
13393s	the hunt uh looking to find maybe a
13396s	couple more Dark Side coins here so they
13397s	can buy 330 back potentially yeah misk
13400s	here actually is doing a very good job
13402s	Alexan goes into that side room to pull
13404s	attention away from miskiest pillow so
13407s	that he can actually get into the mech
13409s	and provide covering for when the Witch
13412s	and wind will fall down and Alex I'm in
13414s	that small room has baited the wuchan
13416s	into taking so much damage from those
13419s	cannon shots when they come through as
13420s	well as the Stagger lockout forces that
13423s	teleport reposition and Elias Gigi that
13426s	time and safety to be able to look for
13428s	the disengagement when the mech is gone
13430s	they however are about to run in towards
13433s	AOW as well as a line still hunting them
13436s	down bounce shell coming on through the
13438s	Cannons absolutely hurting Gigi away
13441s	from the lines and closer towards AOW as
13444s	we see the Wisps come out from Miskin
13446s	not trying to pick up a play but just
13447s	trying to buy themselves a little bit of
13449s	safety so the projectiles can finally
13452s	stop hurting that helper and allow them
13453s	to look for the reset as now the West
13455s	comes out lucky gets absolutely blitzed
13458s	down with this weapon to the flamer but
13459s	the wind wall is there miss you with
13461s	that pillar is able to get into the neck
13463s	and can I try and Hound down these
13464s	members of Alliance as a lines are
13467s	having to just push themselves into line
13468s	of fire so that link gets that
13470s	opportunity to look for the reset but
13472s	lxm doesn't allow it until now he goes a
13475s	little bit too aggressively after Lin
13476s	and he's actually able to get caught up
13478s	into the offer cut combo and Lynn takes
13480s	so much damage but he's able to push in
13482s	with a nurses misky using that whisk to
13484s	be able to dodge it above it you can now
13486s	turn back on to Lynn finds the Parry
13489s	goes for the dual blades and it's gonna
13491s	be miskier clutching it out for GG
13494s	allowing this team to survive and
13496s	potentially even getting the revive onto
13498s	lxm what a play from the Tammy
13502s	yeah absolutely huge coming in here from
13504s	Team GG able to pick Alex M up back here
13506s	as well there's some legendary loot down
13509s	there available to them and they have
13511s	the dark type coins now to be able to
13513s	bring back GG's 330 and 330 being at the
13517s	End Circle uh strategy that this team is
13520s	really going for this is huge for team
13522s	GG they were absolutely pinched between
13524s	two teams here knowing that if they can
13527s	get some damage off on one of these
13528s	teams potentially AOW and JL would
13530s	collide with each other they pressure in
13533s	they burn the ultimates they use that
13535s	Wisp and the flamer there to buy them
13537s	the damage that they wanted AOW doesn't
13539s	quite uh commit like they wanted to onto
13542s	JL though they realized that realize
13544s	they've spent you know double ultimates
13547s	here to lock down the members of JL know
13550s	they have to commit and make something
13551s	happen and it's exactly what we see
13553s	happen as the rest of Team JL uh just
13555s	decides to back out unfortunately we do
13557s	see miskia go down here and things are
13560s	about to get very very bad for team GG
13563s	as miskia was the one who had the 14
13567s	000 dark tide coins or sorry 18 000 dark
13569s	type coins which would have been enough
13570s	to buy both teammates back but
13572s	unfortunately their Feria doesn't have
13574s	the money to do that so now instead of
13577s	being able to get all three of their
13578s	members back they are down to a single
13580s	player left alive and no money in sight
13582s	for them to buy their players back yeah
13584s	you're gonna have to try and Drive by a
13586s	Morrison when we're running
13588s	so many of these tummies so many of
13590s	these monks that's no easy fit txj with
13594s	that opening of the Morris has
13596s	immediately been able to buy themselves
13597s	that legendary armor as well as
13599s	potentially pick up that swarm to be
13600s	able to hammer that damage into these
13602s	monks from a thorough lot of frat that
13605s	the Swarm can output no one really
13607s	wanting to challenge that as we see Alex
13609s	I'm just hiding in a bush as te not
13613s	actually gonna run directly past the cgd
13616s	because she's just popping up a little
13618s	bit it's actually using those wisps
13619s	seeing that there's a team close around
13621s	them doesn't want to potentially get
13623s	sniped out by ranged of oh no Alex M's
13628s	been found
13630s	yeah absolutely te coming in here by the
13632s	way I want to talk about te's comp here
13634s	and why I like this so much right if you
13636s	notice here they put the legendary armor
13638s	onto the temi temi we typically think of
13641s	as a support Euro not the engage because
13644s	of how often we see him put into these
13647s	Transformer comps but into this
13649s	particular comp running temi over the
13651s	Matari and allowing him to be your
13653s	engage because he's able to use those
13655s	whiffs he's able to drop that ultimate
13657s	and re-pick up the whiffs every time he
13659s	walks through it is able to find setup
13662s	for the team so that Takeda can follow
13664s	through with the ultimate and make
13666s	things happen while zip becomes the more
13668s	traditional support for the team and it
13671s	does not have to worry too much about
13673s	that survivability and armor because zip
13675s	does have that alt to fall back onto if
13678s	they get caught out in low yeah as well
13680s	as the fact that you got that Saga as
13682s	well so even if you're able to push that
13684s	ZIP down a lot of the time that gets
13686s	turned against you and if you're running
13688s	into something like a Tammy he's
13689s	immediately going to capitalize on the
13691s	fact that you're already locked in that
13692s	stagger animation of having to stand up
13694s	from the ground Pro whiskey away and
13696s	you're gonna be locked down once again
13697s	as AOW let's try and control how this
13701s	Zone plays out by running that ballista
13703s	and making it even harder for these
13705s	teams to take control of The High Ground
13706s	it'll double have had a very smart game
13709s	of how they played their positioning how
13710s	they've cycled their ultimates even
13712s	running a composition which isn't
13713s	naturally favored in the atmosphere of
13717s	this current meta still finding a lot of
13719s	value a couple of kills as well as
13721s	survivability of all three of their
13722s	players they're sitting on 14 kills
13724s	currently because they understood they
13726s	had far more value playing aggressive in
13727s	the early games and then playing more
13730s	passive and defensive as we head towards
13731s	that final Zone it's going to be a
13733s	pretty good zone for them as well given
13735s	the way that a lot of these teams are
13736s	going to be pushed towards that ballista
13738s	and already you can see jtm just trying
13740s	to swap towards things like they can and
13742s	pressure auw out so they don't just get
13744s	to sit on the back of this Morris
13746s	blessing and keep not just ballista
13748s	control but Morris blessing control too
13750s	because no one wants to walk towards
13752s	that box when you're already going to
13754s	have to dump the temi ultimate to get
13755s	past the ballista and not to control the
13758s	blessing
13758s	yeah absolutely as you take a look here
13761s	at AOW like you said in a very
13762s	commanding position on the backside here
13764s	also I want to talk about how the fact
13766s	that AOW here even though like you said
13768s	it playing a less than favorable comp
13771s	year for themselves uh have been able to
13773s	secure those positionals and use their
13777s	position to constantly pick up third
13779s	parties and the threat of that Viper old
13781s	coming in on a third party is much
13783s	greater than just in a direct one-to-one
13786s	fight right because it forces the teams
13789s	to back off and if one of your members
13790s	get caught out you do not have the
13793s	ultimates because you're being
13794s	third-partied to buy yourself back in to
13797s	cover for that member you almost have to
13799s	give that member up just to keep your
13801s	team in the game and you see here now
13804s	yeah
13806s	it's on them but like you said it should
13808s	maybe not be the greatest position for
13810s	AOW in a couple of moments because that
13812s	ballista is about to be pushed out of
13814s	Zone
13815s	yeah absolutely ewg here also not in the
13819s	greatest of position they they've got
13821s	cover but they are able to be pinched on
13823s	both sides The Zone pushing in from the
13825s	back side as well GD just above them as
13827s	well and you can see these cannons able
13829s	to get into that little Zone that
13831s	they're in and pump out huge explosive
13834s	damage you're gonna see they already
13835s	took the reposition under the Hut here
13838s	just because it's going to buy them some
13839s	more space there's the Zone gonna push
13841s	out team GED as well ewg kind of out in
13844s	the open here but they do have options
13846s	GD on the other hand is going to be
13848s	forced to buy what little space they can
13849s	hear in this corner and hope nobody
13852s	pressures them as they're all still
13854s	running that blue armor and blue weapon
13857s	so GD not in the best of uh positions in
13860s	terms of position or in terms of gear
13862s	coming into these final circles because
13864s	we are zone six and in one minute and
13866s	eight seconds we're gonna see Zone Seven
13868s	collapse onto team te though finding
13871s	themselves still holding on it to that
13874s	little space down below and the way okay
13875s	that's angled it's going to be very hard
13877s	for those cannons to get in and get
13879s	Splash damage onto all three members of
13881s	Team te there they can happily hold that
13883s	space while they wait for the zone to
13884s	collapse to give them a more favorable
13886s	position to push onto some of these
13888s	other teams let me tell you what 17 JL
13890s	is a little bit jealous at the moment
13892s	because that was a position that they
13894s	had when we were headed all the way over
13895s	to another final Zone in Shadow Jade
13897s	earlier today is AOW looking to keep
13900s	control of the higher ground the last
13901s	time they were in the same position they
13903s	did get forced out and sandwiched
13905s	between two teams and that is my worry
13907s	at the moment they have high ground at
13909s	the moment but that does make them a
13911s	much larger Target you can already see
13912s	the jlr looking to try and pressure
13914s	taking a lot of damage because they're
13916s	putting themselves into a position to be
13918s	pressured back in return as it is going
13920s	to be some of these teams just deciding
13922s	okay we don't have a great position
13923s	right now we're going to Hole up we're
13925s	going to wait the one zone pushes
13927s	everyone out of position and hope that
13929s	someone's going to be in a worse spot
13931s	have a worse rotation than us and
13933s	everyone's going to turn to deal with
13935s	them allowing us to get a much safer
13937s	position ewg actually decide to take
13940s	initiative they're immediately going to
13942s	try to Grapple and as the Zone starts to
13944s	close on through they get away no one
13946s	turns to try to deal with them instead
13948s	it's GD J team at the moment still in
13950s	this cave taking a little bit of range
13952s	fire but know any amount of barrage
13955s	that's coming out from the likes of 17
13957s	JL and JL who are currently sitting up
13961s	on this High grind see you having a
13963s	little bit of a truce at the moment with
13966s	cheesecake no one really bothering
13968s	either of the monks as they just wait to
13970s	see whether or not they can find a grab
13971s	until now as you goes in for the punt to
13974s	try and push the other monk off of The
13976s	High Ground before the transformation
13977s	drops down forcing them to try and
13979s	grapple into the temi ultimate's ewg
13981s	decide now is the time to drop that Fifi
13983s	Mech AOW look to make a move but there
13986s	it is they weren't able to reposition
13988s	themselves into a spot that was
13989s	unoccupied the wishing TP drops them
13991s	right into the middle of J teams and as
13994s	a result they immediately go down J team
13996s	with the three players are able to focus
13998s	down the members of AOW who collapse
14000s	onto them and still retain control of
14003s	this little side room which very quickly
14004s	becomes desirable as the Decatur
14006s	ultimate is attempted to push the 18 in
14008s	towards that zone with the hold 101 TN
14011s	in place oh so much pressure coming
14013s	through from the long sword and Cannon
14015s	just keep them in that small room and
14018s	stop them from poking out and stealing
14019s	some of these kills yeah team te here
14022s	really trying to create that pressure
14023s	onto these teams so they can buy
14025s	themselves out of this low ground which
14027s	is extremely unfavorable for them lyd
14029s	gonna get a grab here and a Duke a ton
14033s	of damage but unfortunately takes a ton
14035s	of damage to themselves gonna use the
14037s	old to push rain into the Zone able to
14039s	pick up that heel off of the body
14042s	they're absolutely massive for the likes
14045s	of him because he's not gonna find any
14047s	time to get a reset here unfortunately
14048s	txj is gonna get picked up by J team's
14052s	101 TN ewg losing one of their members
14055s	as well and now we're gonna see lyd
14057s	picked up and that's gonna be it for
14059s	team te here j-team opening themselves
14061s	up to being able to take control of this
14064s	final Circle they have the low ground
14066s	here and The High Ground not going to be
14068s	favorable for many of these teams the
14070s	j-team holding on for dear life and it
14072s	looks like it's going to be a sure
14073s	vertical climb here for the final Zone
14076s	as the circle closes directly onto this
14079s	wall J team needs to get themselves top
14081s	side here as they are now finally forced
14084s	off of that favor below ground into team
14086s	JH coming up here or sorry team JL here
14089s	JL will lose one thing we are going to
14091s	see Z you go ahead and monk up here
14094s	nobody can stand in the final Circle
14096s	here as it collapses onto these
14098s	buildings eagle from J team finds a
14100s	little bit of a gap to stand in there
14102s	hoping that the HP is going to be enough
14104s	to buy him to the end but it's not quite
14106s	enough as his gd's Dawn Queen who comes
14108s	out on top the uh the zipping doesn't
14111s	always have to come with the kills she
14112s	just has to sustain and I sustain
14114s	everybody around her what a final Zone
14117s	it was it became super close as some of
14121s	these teams already were coming into
14122s	that funnels them with a lot of kills
14123s	however te
14125s	once again a third time today will be
14130s	able to pick up another MVP off of some
14133s	really smart play once again using
14135s	things like lyd's ultimate to push those
14137s	players into taking so much Zone tick
14140s	damage and remember if you're pushed
14141s	into that zone the only way the only
14144s	direction that you can go is forward so
14147s	you have to tap Dodge into the damage
14150s	that follows up from the player that
14153s	originally pushed you out of position
14155s	it's honestly a really smart way of
14157s	playing whether you're running that UV
14158s	whether you're running that Decatur just
14160s	taking full advantage of the knockback
14163s	yeah absolutely and you know if you're
14165s	taking advantage of the panic as well
14167s	too right because this last Zone The
14168s	Tick hurts a lot and these players are
14171s	gonna immediately want to tap Dodge to
14173s	try to create the distance to get back
14174s	in the zone before they take another
14176s	tick and if you just immediately tap
14178s	Dodge their opponent can hold and wait
14182s	for you to walk straight into their
14184s	damage whereas you don't buy yourself
14186s	those sort of iframes right because the
14188s	opponent knows what you're gonna do they
14190s	know the timing of it whereas if you're
14192s	in a normal fight you're not on the edge
14194s	of the zone you can hold that tap Dodge
14196s	you can play the waiting game you can be
14198s	patient because you're not afraid of
14200s	taking that huge Zone tip when you're
14202s	sitting there on the edge of the Zone
14203s	you're panicked you don't want to take
14206s	the extra damage you want to just
14208s	immediately go ahead and tap Dodge
14209s	forward you give the free read to your
14211s	opponent and we see it happen time and
14213s	time again where in the pro league that
14215s	little amount of panic is more than
14217s	enough of these players to pick up huge
14218s	eliminations and that's what we see
14220s	happen with Team te not only does he get
14223s	the elimination from that Old knocking
14225s	the player into the Zone he's also able
14227s	to get that Soul Bloom and basically get
14230s	himself a free reset that he otherwise
14232s	would not have been able to get himself
14234s	because of how chaotic that final Circle
14237s	was lets him get back in the fight pump
14239s	out more damage for the team the team's
14240s	able to pick up at least one more
14242s	elimination because of that and team de
14244s	finds himself yet again the MVP team
14247s	here like you said for the third time
14249s	today te
14251s	very very close to being able to take
14253s	that first spot away they have two games
14255s	left to play here today and we we
14257s	question whether you know coming off of
14259s	that Comfort comp that sort of
14261s	Transformer comp that they know so well
14263s	whether they were going to be able to
14264s	perform just as well and clearly opting
14267s	to go into the Takata comp over the
14270s	Viper comp that we talked about today
14272s	and the fact that Takeda comp is
14274s	actually now even more viable
14276s	realistically than the Viper comp
14278s	because of the changes uh that Feria
14280s	brings they were able to capitalize just
14283s	as strongly as if they had been playing
14285s	that Transformers comp essentially I
14287s	mean we're playing a miniaturized
14289s	version of it right that's still doing
14290s	the exact same thing looking towards
14292s	that final Zone looking to control
14294s	trying to identify the biggest threat
14296s	for them it was JT and there's a reason
14298s	that they tried to turn on to J team
14299s	because Jay team was trying to do the
14301s	same thing that they were controlling
14303s	that final Zone using the fact that the
14305s	circle is against so many of those
14306s	players backs and that you're just
14308s	trying to stagger them into it in fact
14310s	we even see when JT were able to usurp
14312s	that position after kicking te out they
14315s	are able to turn around and do it to
14317s	other players who remained on that low
14319s	ground however with a 20.6 game score
14324s	surely we might actually get to see te
14327s	not just put themselves into first
14329s	position but break the record of points
14332s	set by a team heading into a bi-weekly
14334s	final which if my memory serves was fpx
14337s	all the way back in season two where
14339s	they were coming with something like
14340s	over 144.
14343s	well we we already have a team that's
14345s	sitting much uh much higher or well
14348s	close to that they're like 110 something
14350s	like that they're coming into e here is
14353s	going to put in quite a number of points
14355s	and one of the big things to keep in
14357s	mind as well is if they break the record
14359s	here they're doing so with six less
14362s	kills available to them because there's
14364s	two teams
14366s	less right it's 14 teams it's not 16
14369s	teams and realistically those two teams
14371s	equal a total of six kills because of
14374s	the early game Resurrection available to
14376s	teams right so if they break the record
14378s	for total points if things will Buy
14381s	weekly they are going to do it in a
14383s	fashion and Against All Odds given
14385s	there's less skills available so
14388s	speaking about last minute uh
14392s	for a composition that we've yeah we've
14395s	been writing
14396s	we've been saying look it's not as
14399s	strong as it used to be it's not the
14400s	go-to of just contesting those mon
14403s	compositions AOW came in with over 14
14406s	kills on that composition and I really
14409s	do think that it just returns to how
14411s	smart this team is playing it like you
14413s	said they've identified that sort of
14414s	dynamic shift of pacing but they've also
14417s	identified one their most vulnerable
14418s	especially for Wukong I was seeing some
14420s	really great Yoda ultimates the standout
14422s	one was where he actually used the
14424s	ultimate to be able to put himself into
14425s	a room and the cracks between the wooden
14428s	boards allow the Yodo slashes to still
14431s	connect onto the players in front of him
14432s	but don't actually allow any damage to
14436s	be returned onto the Yodo he then saves
14438s	one teleport slash to be able to get out
14439s	of that room so he's not punished when
14441s	the Euro ultimate ends is that really
14443s	smart heads up play that allows a UW to
14446s	adapt around normal weaknesses of this
14449s	composition that we've talked and aired
14451s	about for so much today oh yeah
14453s	absolutely again it really comes down to
14455s	like you said the identification of the
14457s	fact that okay hey this is now an early
14459s	to mid game comp it's no longer a mid
14460s	game to late game comp because Yoda is
14463s	not bringing anything to those final
14464s	circles against these sort of you know
14466s	Transformers specific Rim comps she's
14468s	able to get grabbed out our our kits
14471s	just aren't doing what they used to do
14473s	and if you notice they picked up nine
14474s	eliminations very very early into this
14477s	game and then every fight that they
14478s	picked after that heading into the mid
14480s	to late game were third parties where
14483s	they watched these teams dump multiple
14485s	olds and they were just able to follow
14487s	it up with a Viper old or using that
14490s	yodel old to go ahead and secure
14492s	somebody who was low and instead of
14494s	trying to pressure and take the
14496s	advantageous fight to the rest of the
14498s	team they were more than happy to take
14500s	the one or two stragglers who they
14502s	caught out pick up those eliminations
14504s	and then reset back to a strong position
14507s	rebuild those ultimates and look for the
14510s	next third party yeah that composition
14512s	has very much adapted and I think a lot
14514s	of teams that do play it in that
14515s	scavenger style a death definitely going
14517s	to benefit in the long run and it does
14519s	mean that they're going to have a little
14520s	bit more to be able to pick from in
14522s	terms of hero points as well because if
14523s	you can still make that Yoda composition
14525s	work you don't have to try and
14527s	Frankenstein in something like a zipping
14529s	or a cicada or even a farrier which
14532s	allows you to be able to lean on that
14534s	double Transformer composition that
14535s	we're seeing being pushed into this
14537s	matter so far yeah absolutely and I mean
14540s	there's still a lot of time for this
14542s	meta to shake up and shift as well it's
14544s	still the first bi-weekly and you know I
14547s	I'm willing to bet we might see fairies
14549s	start to fall a little out of favor on
14552s	these Transformer comps especially when
14553s	you look at the performance of teams
14555s	like team te who are running the more
14558s	traditional Transformers comp and
14559s	finding more and more value out of it
14562s	specifically because of how aggressive
14564s	they are pushing those Realms of Yang
14567s	and when they don't find the Realms of
14569s	Yang they back off and play more
14571s	passively and kind of play for a
14574s	consistency Style game and that's
14577s	something we've been talking about for a
14578s	while that we've wanted to see come out
14580s	of these teams is the ability to
14582s	readjust your playstyle on the Fly based
14585s	on the the given surroundings right
14588s	based on the fact okay hey we're playing
14590s	a very confident team that wants to take
14592s	Realms of Yang oh crap we didn't get the
14595s	realm of Yang now it's time to go ahead
14597s	and back off because we're not not that
14599s	strong mid game team we're not running
14600s	temi we're not able to go secure the
14603s	free Morris blessing and we don't want
14605s	to fight these teams with Buffs let's
14607s	slow down the the compet didn't do what
14610s	we wanted to do now it's time to play
14611s	for consistency so that when we can find
14614s	those Realms of game Yang in later games
14617s	we can have those big pop-off moments
14619s	and this game's not going to be such a
14621s	detriment that that pop-off doesn't
14623s	count for something
14624s	yeah I think like what we're seeing
14626s	honestly is just a very high reward
14629s	structure for teams that are able to
14630s	identify in the moment whether it's
14632s	worth even if you've committed into a
14634s	fight sticking a virus or separating
14637s	yourself and giving yourself a little
14638s	bit more distance because Trio is the
14640s	biggest problem no matter what meta that
14641s	we are in there's always going to be
14643s	third parties that's why everyone is
14645s	just so desperate to get into those
14646s	Gates of yank because it stops it
14648s	prevents any percentage zero percent
14652s	chance that you're going to get third
14653s	parties in those fights so as a result
14655s	not only do you know that if you throw
14658s	an ultimate you're going to get them
14660s	back because hey if you win you get your
14661s	ultimate back if you lose you get your
14663s	ultimate badge
14666s	to build into being in that position
14668s	when no one if you're running above
14670s	wants to push on to you so not only do
14673s	you stop a third party in the gate of
14674s	Yang fight when the buff is up you also
14677s	prevent or at least lessen the
14679s	likelihood of being third-partied when
14682s	that is up and running so you have a
14684s	little bit more Breathing Room not just
14685s	to hunt for kills but also to shore up
14688s	your resources for the final Zone
14690s	yeah absolutely and I mean another thing
14693s	to keep in mind too is we're seeing a
14695s	lot less what I call hero syndrome this
14697s	season where these teams are willing to
14700s	throw players to the Wolves knowing that
14703s	they can just immediately buy them back
14705s	into the game and not have to risk kind
14708s	of taking these 2v3 fights where they're
14711s	trying to get the resurrection off
14712s	without burning quote unquote resources
14715s	and then end up losing the entire team
14718s	and going out early we saw it last game
14720s	with Team GD right K finds themselves
14723s	kind of pushed into a bad situation
14725s	where they reveal the entire team to AOW
14728s	who's kind of sitting and waiting in the
14730s	wings and almost immediately as soon as
14732s	K recognizes that situation he doesn't
14735s	even let his team have the option of
14738s	having hero syndrome he immediately
14740s	About Faces 180 and runs the other
14744s	direction and buys as much time for the
14747s	remaining members of GD as humanly
14749s	possible and while AOW hunts him down
14752s	gd's already pushing in position to get
14755s	to a shop so that they can just buy K
14759s	immediately back into the game and
14761s	that's exactly what we see happen a lot
14764s	of these teams are losing that sort of
14766s	hero syndrome and it's kind of a pit a
14768s	lot of players especially casual players
14770s	fall into where it's like oh man my
14773s	teammates down I gotta go back in for
14775s	him you really don't have to with as
14778s	many ways as naraka has to get your
14780s	teammate back into the game you know you
14783s	can sneak in onto a Morse blessing if
14785s	you've got the money you can just go to
14786s	a shop and buy them right back 9k in
14789s	Immortal war is not that much money to
14791s	be buying one of your teammates back
14793s	given how much money you get for getting
14794s	eliminations and how easy it is to stack
14797s	those dark tide coins and wait for
14800s	situations exactly like that if you're
14802s	not just going and immediately burning
14804s	all of your money on the box typically
14806s	you should be in a situation where you
14808s	can buy at least one of your teammates
14809s	back especially you know if you do a
14811s	couple of bindies a couple of passions
14813s	then you're 100 going to have the money
14815s	and the resources and like you said we
14817s	started from GD to a certain extent we
14819s	also saw it from Gigi unfortunately for
14820s	GG it didn't work out so well because
14822s	they run into AOW but hey the the intent
14825s	was that but speaking about something
14827s	else that's uh we can see the
14828s	compositions that are being coming
14829s	through it is going to be holler off it
14831s	is going to be cloudy so unfortunately
14833s	not a lot of fireflies for this Decatur
14835s	also compositions to be able to play off
14837s	of and as a result Gigi are the only
14839s	ones who are going to be running that
14841s	Decatur up there for Miss year no
14844s	surprises actually here's one surprise
14846s	te there are they're going away from the
14848s	traditional Transformers comp they're
14850s	Fielding the fire they're going for that
14852s	Pacific Rim combination and so too are a
14854s	lot of teams around them I thought maybe
14856s	we would see a bigger impact from these
14859s	teams upon seeing that Tu were finding a
14861s	lot of value with that traditional
14863s	composition but only a couple of teams
14864s	seem to gravitate a lot of players still
14867s	sticking with that Pacific Rim Style
14869s	well for Te they haven't used the temi
14872s	or the Feria yet so this actually allows
14875s	them to buy that fourth Transformer comp
14877s	without burning the extra points from
14880s	running the same traditional comp back
14882s	again and with less failures in the
14884s	lobby because of how many teams ran it
14886s	early
14887s	they buy themselves a little bit more of
14889s	a strong position going in the final
14892s	Circle being able to cover their monk
14894s	that way and I actually really agree
14896s	with the temmie pick as well because now
14900s	you're buying uh space from the rain
14903s	shots for the team as well as being able
14906s	to buy that second transformation where
14908s	he can heal up inside of the mech or
14911s	just Pummel a ton of damage back in and
14914s	get that ultimate ready and back up for
14916s	himself as well I think this is going to
14918s	serve team te very well because they
14920s	know the ins and outs of these
14921s	Transformer comps so well that it
14924s	doesn't really matter if they swap too
14926s	much off of it as long as txj and lyd
14930s	are still able to buy the space that
14932s	they're looking for and we're gonna see
14933s	Team te coming back in here now this did
14936s	not work out for team te last time they
14938s	showed up here right they came in they
14940s	tried to take ballistic control and they
14942s	actually died early to it but it looks
14943s	like they're going to be uncontested uh
14946s	going in looking for that box if they're
14948s	able to get red armor early here it can
14950s	be massive for team te heading into the
14953s	rest of this game yeah we're heading
14954s	over towards matap however as this is a
14957s	contested spot ewg going to be matching
14960s	width at the moment with 17 JL taking a
14963s	lot of damage as they're able to turn in
14965s	with things like the great sword scale
14966s	rushes on those nunchucks isolating out
14969s	the members of 17 JL not allowing them
14972s	to be able to group up and as adult
14973s	though they did lose xiaolu they are
14975s	able to get the rescue in time before
14978s	the body burns on out and can now look
14980s	to be able to pick apart that better
14983s	position of metal looking for someone's
14985s	a loot either above them in that little
14987s	secret room or below them in the caverns
14990s	as wolves now turn up against jdg
14993s	investing a very early uh bainsworth
14996s	coming out from jdg this isn't something
14998s	that we typically tend to see is like
15000s	you pointed out a lot of these teams
15001s	have gravitated away from early Bane
15003s	strap and instead saving Dark Side coins
15005s	the encasements go a little awry and
15007s	they need to buy one of those players
15008s	back but the BrainCraft doesn't find
15010s	anything except chasing wolves off of
15013s	that fight GD trying to use those with
15015s	stonkwing looking to try and Escape for
15018s	as long as possible not gonna be able to
15020s	buy themselves anytime until now hits
15022s	the stone form and then immediately
15023s	turns back in onto those members manages
15026s	actually to use that right click tap
15028s	Dodge into dodging out of the list that
15030s	was attempting to follow him as jdg lock
15033s	him down and finally find the pick but
15036s	my goodness dunking what a play how he
15039s	was able to survive so long one versus
15041s	two shows exactly how strong the player
15044s	here really is yeah dunking did a really
15047s	good job there he actually goes for the
15048s	blue Clank into Godly who lets that
15050s	meter dump rip unfortunately he gets
15053s	staggered just a little too much
15054s	beforehand so he's not able to get the
15056s	blue out in time to actually get the
15059s	Clash so as he lets the blue rip it's
15061s	just into the gold focus of that meter
15064s	dump and he does finally go down to the
15066s	nunchucks there but he played that fight
15068s	extremely well we're starting now to
15070s	team te who looks like they weren't able
15072s	to secure uh the armor they were hoping
15075s	to get out of that early box but were
15077s	able to put their hands onto a legendary
15079s	spear here as they try to turn things
15081s	back around interestingly enough that
15084s	spear not on the monkey but on their
15086s	fairies instead VV really trying to come
15089s	in and locks the players down gets the
15091s	damage off on to one thing we're gonna
15093s	see the mech come through but txj is
15095s	going to take the mechs here from vvv
15096s	which makes sense as Vivi wants to hold
15099s	on to the legendary Spear and pump out
15101s	as much damage as they can while buying
15103s	txj a transformation here to to build up
15106s	rage to get their own monk ult available
15109s	J team coming in for the third party
15111s	though and we're gonna see the likes of
15113s	Team te back out they picked up a couple
15115s	of uh kills here but they've spent too
15117s	many ultimates to deal with the third
15118s	party gonna make the smart decision to
15120s	back off and let Jay team have the
15122s	scraps yeah Jay team seeing that
15125s	disengaging member from JL not really
15128s	trying to uh being able to figure out
15130s	where he is until just nice rush off of
15132s	the ceiling will be able to connect onto
15134s	the EU and he finally goes down but by
15137s	making that smart decision and allowing
15138s	J team to be able to push through not
15140s	only did te manage to make sure that the
15143s	entire Squad of Jr was wiped they're
15147s	also guaranteeing that jtm spent so long
15149s	hunting that one player down they've
15150s	immediately been able to reposition and
15153s	have enough distance and time so that J
15155s	team can't immediately turn and try and
15157s	track where that team is allowing them
15160s	not just to be able to go okay well
15162s	that's one full Squad wipe at least for
15164s	a little bit that's all three rivers
15165s	going to be used for that team but also
15167s	the time to be able to reset those
15168s	ultimates so that J team can't look to
15170s	punish the fact that they'd already use
15172s	them as now we've moved over towards
15174s	Imperial AOW going to be going up
15177s	against Juventus Baines breath coming
15179s	through from AOW making it extremely
15181s	hard for these other monks to be able to
15183s	try and pressure pink Tau out they can't
15185s	get any closer to try and punt him and
15187s	stop him with those staggers from being
15189s	able to pick up some of these players
15191s	instead they just have have to disengage
15192s	and as a result AOW can just pick apart
15195s	these members one by one all while the
15198s	Fret of that monk hangs in the sidelines
15200s	and it's really smart play once again
15202s	from this team that backs in the full
15204s	Squad
15205s	yeah AOW really coming much more alive
15208s	here uh in day two for themselves
15211s	finding that sort of pacing finding
15213s	those third parties that they really
15215s	want here having the patience to not
15218s	just push on to absolutely everything
15220s	and really knowing the comp that they're
15223s	they're playing and the pacing for that
15225s	comp very very well again they were
15228s	hyper aggressive in the early game while
15230s	they were playing that Viper comp and
15231s	then slowed things down significantly
15233s	and only looked for those third parties
15235s	maybe serving them very well and now
15238s	they're running a slower Pace into the
15240s	early game year while on the Transformer
15241s	stop still looking for those third
15244s	parties to capitalize on and will
15246s	probably pick up pace the further the
15248s	game goes on given the comp that they're
15250s	playing
15251s	Alliance here on to jjh Julie locked
15254s	down there in the temio but the pillar
15257s	comes in able to buy them some space but
15259s	they can't push too hyper aggressive
15260s	because of where that tamiolt is they
15263s	weren't able to follow up on those
15265s	nunchuck hits and because of that
15266s	Alliance is easily able to go ahead and
15269s	reposition pick up the elimination onto
15272s	them and it's sad to see it happen there
15274s	for team jjh we see GD pick up a bounty
15277s	on to team te and it's AOW once again
15280s	here going ahead to head with wbg
15283s	locking down some of these players Jing
15285s	at very very low Ping Tao waiting until
15288s	the Yoda's almost done ulting to go
15290s	ahead and pop their ultimate but we will
15292s	see the wuchan old come in and buy some
15294s	space for wbg they are going to be able
15296s	to get up at least one pot here shuitong
15299s	trying to get a little bit of damage
15301s	bumbled down on them hoping to cancel
15303s	some of those pots out there but not
15304s	able to find exactly what they were
15306s	looking for Ping Tao still in the old
15308s	shuitong also in Old tier as well and
15312s	the Tammy old committed as well AOW
15314s	can't really afford to turn back in to
15317s	this wbg fight wbg spent at least two of
15321s	their ultimates looks like they spent
15322s	their Viper ultimate as well so it's no
15324s	olds going against no olds here AOW
15327s	wanting to play it safe though because
15329s	they are playing that Transformers comp
15331s	and when you have no ultimates available
15333s	you feel like your safety net is gone
15336s	now windwards do come up ahead however
15339s	so aw might see that as an opportunity
15343s	in case someone else is being pressured
15345s	on those flank angles as we do have a
15347s	look at what this map is going to be
15349s	heading Gates love you I'm going to be
15351s	coming online wolves look like they're
15353s	going to be able to slide in and grab
15354s	one for absolute free the same cannot be
15357s	said for a couple of these other teams
15360s	however easy is about to go into a big
15363s	old dust up towards that western part of
15366s	the map is ewg and Gigi still at it
15369s	cannon fire is coming on through foreign
15372s	exchanging a couple of shots that with a
15375s	bow as is every single team are looking
15378s	for control of their space looking to be
15380s	able to slide into that gate of Yankee
15381s	roomy umbrella already used from xiaolu
15384s	so they're not going to be able to have
15385s	that to stagger lock these players when
15387s	the Gate of Yang starts to push on
15389s	through as it does seem like GG now are
15392s	going to be trying to put a little bit
15394s	more pressure as that gate spawns in and
15396s	it attracts the attention of other teams
15398s	voiding in the wings te now coming and
15400s	looking to chance their way another
15402s	Karimi umbrella coming through all of
15404s	these players hoping to be able to
15406s	capitalize when that gate of Yang comes
15408s	through and use that stagger lock as txj
15410s	tries to push on through and is actually
15412s	able to make it before anybody else in
15415s	the vicinity getting hit by that longs
15417s	and horizontal might actually have
15419s	pushed him closer to being able to slide
15421s	into that gate and allowing him to take
15424s	into this fight against KZ vvv waiting
15427s	for that skill rush to come on through
15429s	legendary spear goes vertical looking to
15431s	to connect and that actually forces KZ
15433s	into dropping that semi ultimate very
15436s	early on hazy now going to use this
15438s	opportunity to be able to transform up
15440s	as we see the Faria met come out from te
15443s	pressuring out that one composition not
15445s	allowing hazy the opportunity to look
15447s	for those grabs he's already found one
15449s	but he hasn't found the slam until just
15451s	now it's actually unfortunately not able
15453s	to cancel that out in time with the
15454s	cannon burst and has to go Ariel in that
15457s	mix so that he doesn't get grabbed out
15459s	as he's found another player doesn't
15461s	find the double slam but once again the
15463s	cannon fight does not come through to
15465s	stagger the monkey in time to stop the
15466s	slam and as a result te a losing players
15469s	rapidly pretty soon it's just going to
15471s	be one Ferry against the whole Trio and
15473s	it is going to be Casey just making sure
15475s	that they're able to come through on top
15478s	yeah Casey actually coming to win this
15480s	fight here txj does have the monk form
15482s	there's not a whole lot he can do here
15483s	these guys are just gonna stand behind
15485s	the pillar the most he can get is a
15487s	single grab here look at this foggy unit
15488s	using uh the umbrella it's a block of
15491s	the grab as well he's able to get Jen
15492s	here but there's no way he's able to
15494s	grab another play out here the most uh
15497s	txj can really hope for here is to time
15499s	this out so that both teams are forced
15502s	to take that Yang depletion but he's
15504s	taking so much damage here from the rain
15506s	shots he's gonna pop the Bell looks to
15507s	try to go for the pillar to get up the
15509s	scale Rush not able to find it as
15510s	fastjin is waiting in the wings behind
15512s	him to go ahead and lock him down in
15515s	that hit stun and the follow-up there is
15517s	enough Casey easily takes this realm of
15519s	Yang heading in now though we are zone
15522s	two gonna collapse on to zone three in
15524s	the next minute and 30 seconds here wbg
15526s	giving Chaser to AOW here and it's gonna
15529s	be KZ and wolves who each walk away with
15532s	the Vermillion Birds might hear from
15535s	those Realms of Yang absolutely huge for
15537s	team here wolves has been trying to
15539s	secure themselves a realm of Yang all
15542s	day and haven't been able to find it
15544s	they've been constantly uh pushed off
15546s	those Realms of Yang able to find one
15548s	here and now with the buff need to push
15550s	out and look for some eliminations uh to
15553s	kind of suit their hyper aggressive play
15555s	style in the early to mid game here they
15557s	have the safety net they need to do
15560s	something with it yeah whenever we've
15562s	seen wolves like be the most successful
15564s	especially on the map of hollow off it's
15565s	one they've had for him because they
15567s	were like to really just key into that
15569s	hyper aggression without having to worry
15571s	about potentially being third-partied or
15573s	over investing or even overstaying their
15575s	welcome in some of these fights the
15577s	problem for them is that these teams
15579s	they understand that pace and they
15580s	understand okay if we didn't actually be
15582s	uh be able to put ourselves into the
15584s	gate of Yanks to pick ourselves up the
15586s	Buffs or worse if we lost the Gate of
15587s	young fight we go into hiding now we're
15591s	all the dice and hope that we're able to
15593s	to critical success check that stealth
15596s	as a wolves and Casey both teams with a
15600s	million both teams haven't been able to
15602s	track down anyone but speaking of wolves
15604s	have actually been able to find their
15605s	way into a fight against jjh jjh now
15608s	having to throw in a couple of those
15609s	ultimates as well as low to get
15611s	aggressive but temi ultimate to try and
15612s	stop wolves from being able to push back
15614s	onto them and open them up to take a
15616s	little bit more damage in that poke face
15618s	cannon fire coming improved from jjh
15620s	connects onto it does stop the grappler
15622s	from being able to connect but now jjh's
15625s	Stacks are against the wall and they
15626s	don't have the opportunity to be able to
15628s	try and scale Rush up it sorrow goes for
15630s	that transformation as well making it
15632s	even harder for jjh to be able to find a
15634s	safe disengagement as jdg actually come
15637s	in for the third party and that's what
15639s	we were talking about wolves again going
15641s	for that hyper aggressive play put a
15643s	little bit too much focus on the team
15645s	around them they're not punished for it
15646s	they do still have that Vermillion Birds
15648s	they will still be able to respawn but
15650s	they don't find the opening they don't
15652s	find the kills that we're looking to use
15654s	as a safety net as we headed towards the
15657s	final parts of this map
15658s	you're going to see sorrow actually get
15661s	picked up here the other two remaining
15663s	member of wolves not quite sure where
15665s	they are at the moment looks like one of
15667s	them also gets eliminated and the other
15669s	opting to just go ahead and back out
15671s	with the rest of the team or I say that
15673s	until jdg gets their hands on to lxx and
15677s	that will be olive oils unfortunately
15679s	like you said they find no ground here
15681s	they're able to pick up that Vermillion
15683s	Birds might end up pressure but they
15685s	pressure too heavily not quite paying
15687s	attention to the other teams around them
15688s	they don't even pick up a single
15689s	elimination there they aren't hyper
15691s	punished for it because they do have
15693s	that Vermillion Birds might but it's
15694s	very unfortunate that they don't even
15696s	pick up
15697s	a single elimination off the back of it
15699s	here team GD absolutely blitzing through
15703s	xiaohu here Double Dragons rush into
15705s	nege's might on to Zha Hui absolutely
15708s	deletes him from this game
15711s	jjh out here being chased down by the
15714s	other two members of Team GED now trying
15716s	to get on to Julie Chuli really honestly
15719s	no place to go here can I use that Soul
15721s	slash and just drop the pillar to go
15723s	ahead and cancel out the soul slash so
15725s	that GD easily picks up the elimination
15727s	says look I'm not even gonna try to deal
15730s	with this I'll spend 30 Old just go
15732s	ahead and guarantee the kill and get us
15734s	back into the zone so I don't have to
15735s	deal with this anymore and GD playing
15737s	very very well here with six
15738s	eliminations under their belt and
15741s	getting more aggressive as time goes on
15744s	we are zone two being collapsed onto
15746s	right now getting ready to head into
15748s	zone three so we're gonna see
15751s	potentially another realm of Yang fight
15752s	getting ready to come through here as a
15755s	GD looks for their next Target here K
15757s	almost with the ultimate Back available
15759s	to him 84 old charge already uh under
15763s	his belt now that's the ultimate that
15766s	they need as well if they want to truly
15767s	be able to challenge into these gate
15769s	fights they might have the monk ultimate
15771s	but it's the Fourier ultimate that they
15772s	need to be able to cover there's the
15774s	Gate of young fights and we can have a
15775s	look at where exactly they're spawning
15777s	GD did one past jdg a little bit earlier
15781s	but jdg already with control of that
15783s	space Judy not gonna have to walk into a
15785s	team that is already set up neither of
15787s	these teams however want to part with
15789s	ultimate but this is actually a silver
15790s	liner for K the good news is that he's
15793s	able to find that snipe to push a little
15795s	bit faster towards that neck being up
15797s	the bad news is that because they had
15800s	already given up that position and
15802s	allowed the other team a little bit of a
15804s	head start on what the Gate of Yang
15806s	would be positioned GD aren't able to
15808s	make it in time so now it is going to be
15811s	a fight of ewg versus jdg rather than GD
15815s	take a ready falling extraordinarily
15817s	look it's absolutely Blitz down both
15821s	monks going to be able to hold that
15823s	position for a little bit longer but JD
15824s	EEG with that Focus where we're able to
15827s	dispatch very quickly the team and take
15830s	themselves to be able to take that gate
15831s	of young fight pick up that Mystic mind
15833s	and now try and turn on to the members
15836s	of most likely GD but maybe jjh Audi as
15840s	well because they're still sticking
15841s	around pretty close too te on the other
15844s	hand not actually going into a get a
15846s	young fight but still wanting to take an
15848s	engagement against AOW on frozen lake
15850s	don't see the full free members of the
15852s	team however so don't want to go for the
15855s	full engage
15856s	is it me or yeah no ewg went into that
15859s	realm of Yang with a single player left
15862s	available to them it was just the monk
15864s	player so it was a 1v3 there ewg may be
15867s	hoping to get a free realm of Yang there
15871s	unfortunately it doesn't happen they do
15872s	get to stay in the game though because
15874s	they do have four minutes of Yang
15875s	depletion but it's gonna be very hard
15877s	for that single player from ewg to find
15880s	a resurrection uh onto one of their
15883s	teammates or to find that Soul Bloom
15885s	Essence that they're really looking for
15886s	as we turn here we see everybody running
15888s	in and it's ewg yeah most of their
15890s	members are actually getting caught out
15892s	by the likes of Alliance te and uh AOW
15896s	waiting in the wings which is why a
15898s	single member goes into the realm of
15901s	Yang it's super unfortunate when that
15902s	happens right we've actually seen teams
15905s	bait portals before where they were able
15907s	to come in they let one member go
15909s	through use the kurumi umbrella to knock
15911s	back the other two members fight those
15913s	two members in a 3v2 and eliminate them
15915s	and they'll believes that solo member
15917s	inside a realm of Yang and it's not a
15920s	place you want to be here in the pro
15921s	league because winning those clean 1v3
15924s	fights when you know the enemy team has
15927s	maximum HB and has all three of their
15930s	ultimates is not impossible I don't
15933s	think we've ever seen an ewg two take
15935s	area is caught out he needs to find even
15938s	a single soul Bloom here but he's forced
15940s	to run away while in the monk
15942s	transformation is able to find one grab
15944s	if you can find another here he might be
15945s	able to make something happen
15946s	unfortunately it's not going to happen
15948s	he's going to be forced to take the slam
15949s	two tick knows he's gonna go down here
15951s	accepts his fate goes out fighting and
15954s	that's gonna be it for ewg all talking
15957s	about Bay plays GG counting out a soul
15960s	also knowing that players who had lost
15962s	those gate fights would be looking for
15964s	the closest ones they can try and get
15965s	very quickly back into those matches so
15967s	that you don't run down that four minute
15969s	timer without potentially running into a
15971s	fight or able to find the lone member of
15975s	that Monk and and take him very quickly
15977s	down as we get to see a year and now
15980s	under pressure from this guy the Takeda
15981s	ultimate going to be coming through but
15983s	the Parry is better from year on able to
15986s	push on to miskia is able though to tap
15988s	Dodge back to be able to distance
15990s	himself so no kill confirmation as Iran
15993s	does not want to fully commit the hot
15995s	swap from the musket shot from meskia
15997s	allows even more time to come through
15999s	the call has been made reinforcements
16001s	are needed and year on is very quickly
16003s	dispatched under the full scrutiny of
16006s	the Gigi's Trio that's going to be it
16008s	for uwg right I I thought when two tick
16010s	I picked out he was the last remaining
16012s	member of the team because we hadn't
16014s	seen uh the Resurrection come through
16015s	but it looks like they had enough money
16017s	they were able to buy back year on then
16019s	year on immediately buys back two tick
16021s	after he gets eliminated and then both
16023s	of them just get picked back up
16024s	realistically all they did was feed like
16028s	three more kills there to team GG I
16031s	don't know if that was the call honestly
16033s	foreign
16036s	but like again Gigi just playing very
16039s	smart playing that position it's very
16041s	much a sort of cheese trap those gate of
16042s	Yang fights very inviting you won't try
16045s	and take them but if you don't actually
16047s	want to take the fight itself instead
16048s	you want to try and force yourself onto
16050s	those players that look for that opening
16052s	you really can isolate out a lot of
16054s	plays and guarantee that you put
16055s	themselves into a position where they
16057s	have to raise a teammate and then you're
16059s	able to catch them as they come up with
16060s	that Soul Ultron they have absolutely no
16062s	loot to their name so one big kill
16064s	becomes two and sometimes even three
16066s	there's AOW not gonna actually be baited
16068s	into taking the engagement can be
16070s	retreating a little bit further away
16071s	still playing around this anti-ultimate
16074s	field as well to make it even harder for
16076s	these teams to try and engage on this
16077s	composition because you're the monk in
16080s	control of being able to stop other
16082s	monks from sitting in that ultimate and
16085s	that positioning is absolutely crucial
16088s	for AOW to survive as those gate of Yang
16091s	fight Buffs will be running out all of
16093s	the teams that were playing possibly in
16095s	defense in the Hogs that they weren't
16097s	spotted out are now going to be emerging
16099s	from the woodwork and looking to
16101s	position themselves into final zones
16103s	yeah absolutely and AOW has proven today
16106s	that they're a team that's just not
16108s	going to be baited into bad decision
16109s	making literally all of the points that
16112s	they've managed to scrap together for
16114s	themselves today have been off directly
16116s	their decision making their ability to
16118s	third party their ability to understand
16120s	the comp that they're playing and the
16122s	place it has in the new meta right
16124s	decision making has been the name of the
16126s	game for AOW so it's no surprise to see
16129s	a bait coming out and AOW just
16131s	completely ignoring it like it doesn't
16132s	even exist team GG over here and a
16135s	little bit of a pickle trading uh blows
16137s	with Team te does have that uh oh my
16141s	goodness they have the bounty on to team
16144s	GG so GG knows that they can't really
16146s	hide here but te not wanting to fully
16148s	commit because they know there's so many
16149s	other teams waiting around there's
16151s	wolves KZ all just kind of sitting on
16153s	this backside here and teamte just
16156s	taking those rain shots waiting for
16158s	somebody else to commit looking to try
16159s	to make those similar third parties that
16162s	we've seen AOW making but t ee knows
16165s	they're sitting in an extremely strong
16167s	position right now they're ahead overall
16169s	in the standings by almost 60 points
16172s	they have 10 eliminations under their
16174s	belt yet again this game they just want
16176s	to walk it into late game
16178s	even if they don't have a crazy massive
16181s	game here just a consistency game is
16183s	huge for them right now that is a mean
16186s	spawning of tomorrow's blessing and
16188s	that's why we immediately see that
16189s	Samuel's not being dumped is that too
16191s	long in that snowstorm and your ultimate
16193s	rage bar is going to be sapped away and
16194s	you can already see that gd's position
16196s	is known to other teams in this area but
16199s	it feels like they're using this snow
16200s	storm to actually threaten all the teams
16202s	away from engaging monk comps do not
16205s	want to go into snow storms because they
16207s	don't want to have to use that ultimate
16208s	form too early well the other team can
16210s	just bait the ultimate out and then back
16212s	away wolves however because they want to
16216s	try and get a read and potentially
16217s	control this Tower want to actually push
16220s	onto GD as the snowsome evaporates and
16223s	those ultimates are able to come back
16225s	online as you see GD still having these
16228s	members alive they knew that wolves
16230s	would potentially try and push onto them
16231s	but they have to worry about te because
16233s	te are going to be eyeing that Higher
16236s	Ground too they want to put themselves
16238s	into that Prime position where they're
16240s	Out Of Reach of those fights without
16242s	having to dump a temi ultimate in too
16244s	soon and potentially getting punished by
16246s	Third parties that want to look in once
16248s	the altars are
16249s	yeah absolutely wolves there also trying
16252s	to position towards the Box because they
16253s	are down a member they want to get that
16255s	free Resurrection while it's still
16257s	available for their team but
16259s	unfortunately completely pressured off
16261s	by the likes of Team uh GD and te there
16265s	so wolves gonna have to kind of retreat
16267s	with their uh tail between their legs
16268s	here's lxx also getting picked off by
16271s	team jjh wolves really not in a great
16273s	position unfortunately like again they
16275s	risked it all to try to push in onto the
16277s	Box didn't even manage to touch the Box
16280s	get chased off and there's so many teams
16283s	left up here there's no good place for
16285s	wolves to go and they find another one
16287s	of their members lxx just being caught
16289s	out here by the likes of Team jjh wolves
16292s	down to a single member left remaining
16294s	alive here and it's very unfortunate but
16297s	it's a classic story here for wolves
16299s	they played a little too close to the
16301s	Sun a little too aggressive too early on
16303s	uh they even pick up the Vermillion
16305s	Birds might and then don't pick up a
16307s	single elimination off the back of it
16309s	and this is has kind of been the same
16311s	problem wolves has been running into
16313s	time and time again they either play
16316s	hyper aggressive early and then can't
16318s	make it to Mid game because they get
16320s	eliminated get the resurrections and
16322s	then don't have the gear to do anything
16323s	into the late game or they just play so
16326s	hyper aggressive that they get a lot of
16327s	kills but they go out in the mid game
16329s	and then they don't get that multiplier
16332s	that they desperately need to gain any
16334s	sort of uh Point advantage over some of
16336s	these other teams jjh sitting up top
16338s	here with the mecca available to him
16340s	team GG not in the best of situations
16342s	miskia going extremely low the potential
16345s	for them to be pushed on by another team
16347s	extremely high especially as they run
16350s	into alliance and many of these other
16352s	teams GG in the worst possible
16354s	positioning of any team on the map here
16356s	330 trying to find a sort of position
16358s	that's going to be good for him to buy
16360s	Mischief of spaces using those cannons
16362s	nobody wanting to over commit here
16365s	actually buys misky of the space that he
16367s	needs to get a reset Alexandra looking
16370s	for that same reset now his Alliance is
16372s	able to come over here and secure this
16374s	other Moore's blessing that gold armor
16375s	going on to Lynn Alliance sitting not in
16379s	the greatest oppositions but with two
16382s	eliminations under their belt and
16383s	running a monk comp potentially have a
16386s	strong finish coming into the final
16388s	Circle I'll exam gets spotted out a
16391s	little bit further ahead of the other
16392s	members of GG and has to immediately
16394s	book it away from that box as we see
16397s	Gigi very quickly just closing ranks so
16399s	that it follows did try and push on that
16401s	loan member they would be able to
16403s	retaliate with numbers rather than one
16405s	just being stagger locked in place by
16407s	three and very quickly turning into his
16409s	Stepping Stones of a fight te still with
16412s	a horse in this race using that tree
16414s	getting again information of the
16416s	player's positions around them before
16418s	dropping back down to the low ground
16420s	they're taking a lot of damage however
16422s	in the Canon poker face as all of these
16425s	players don't really have a lot of cover
16427s	to be able to hide behind some of those
16429s	trees make it a lot harder to be able to
16431s	try and figure out where the players
16433s	around you are especially if they
16434s	grapple around the backs of them and
16436s	look to drop down peripheral as she gets
16437s	caught in a Tammy wisp but is able to
16439s	use the horizontal movement and make it
16442s	a way before any retaliation can come on
16444s	to him as we see Alliance currently
16446s	trying to control that High Ground using
16448s	the 10 miles as well as the monk to keep
16451s	this position in place as GD once again
16453s	look to challenge so I'm going extreme
16456s	and low has to use the boosters on that
16458s	mix to be able to make it away from the
16460s	fight as Alliance Knight because they
16462s	put so many eggs in the basket of The
16463s	High Ground when they are forced to drop
16465s	down find themselves in a horrible
16467s	position in the middle somehow Lin is
16470s	entirely unnoticed by everybody around
16473s	him because everyone is just so ugly by
16475s	dealing with the members on the fringes
16477s	of the zone that he's actually allowed a
16479s	full reset Alliance in a horrible
16482s	position are able now to try to hold and
16485s	push onto the flanks catching out some
16487s	of these members caught up in that fight
16489s	against GG and te and potentially come
16492s	with the third party
16494s	yeah the third party's coming through
16497s	extremely strong here in these final
16499s	circles and the AOW being one of those
16501s	teams that's been able to capitalize on
16503s	it but GG here somehow able to survive
16505s	so many of those they found themselves
16507s	in an extremely terrible position as
16509s	zone five was collapsing onto zone six
16511s	they were able to find the reset and
16513s	they're not in the greatest of overall
16515s	positions now but still able to hold on
16518s	here looking to pick up some
16519s	eliminations geez these guys are here
16521s	getting jumped on by you Ashan but still
16524s	in a fairly decent position able to get
16526s	most of her reset Don Quinn got a value
16528s	of their team even more space as
16531s	kakaishi comes topside here with the
16532s	cannon looking to do as much damage as
16535s	he can holding on to that ultimate as
16537s	long as he can waiting for dongping to
16539s	go ahead and drop the mechier doesn't
16541s	want to use the alt too early wants to
16543s	stagger those olds as much as possible
16546s	or cgg's 330. it's time for him to
16548s	finally go ahead and monk up here and if
16550s	things not looking great for some of
16552s	these other teams Alliance able to to
16555s	find themselves mostly eliminated here
16558s	off the back of te pushing in Te vvv
16560s	gonna be forced to D Mech here and now
16563s	we're gonna see mistya get picked up by
16565s	a huge long sword slash coming in from
16567s	Team KZ and GG finds themselves once
16570s	again in an inopportune situation 3 30
16572s	trying to find these grabs but forced to
16574s	go top side here and try to do a little
16577s	bit of Parkour before he can do anything
16579s	and he's not gonna find it kakaishi
16581s	finds a huge great sword slam onto fijin
16585s	from team at KZ jdg picks up a t E's v v
16589s	and JD looking to take control of this
16593s	final Circle 330 able to find a slam on
16596s	to somebody K picks up jdg's LSR and
16599s	again Genie really taking control here
16601s	the Whisk coming through and catching
16603s	out kakaishi though he dies to the zone
16605s	as the Wisp holds him in place k caught
16608s	out on the whip as well is going to get
16610s	grabbed here by JJ's Godly as well as
16612s	dog swing it's gonna be a double slam a
16615s	GG who want to take control of the
16617s	spinal Circle get eliminated off the
16620s	back of godly's double grab KZ holding
16623s	on for dear life gets slammed down by
16626s	jdg jjh now the only full team left
16630s	remaining here looking to secure
16632s	themselves a victory in game number five
16635s	10 kills for jdg 11 kills for jjh is all
16639s	going to come down to which of these
16640s	teams or the last standing dragon's role
16642s	comes out from Godly and so kills the
16645s	kill onto alliances lucky and that
16647s	should secure the MVP status coming
16650s	through for this team jjh walk away
16653s	finally an MVP of the series
16656s	I I'm dumbfounded it looked like it was
16659s	all coming up team GD and then alone
16662s	with locks down kakaishi and it nobody
16666s	even focuses kakaishi when he gets
16668s	caught out by the Wisp the Wisp just
16670s	holds him in the zone long enough that
16671s	The Tick's able to pick up the
16673s	elimination K goes in for the
16676s	resurrection and then almost as if fate
16679s	another whisper slows up grabs K locks
16683s	him up it allows jjh to get the grab on
16686s	to K they find the follow-up grab onto
16688s	donkwing and the uh ensuing double grab
16691s	slam is enough to completely eliminate
16694s	JD and then jjh has found their footing
16697s	into the final Zone and starts picking
16700s	up elimination after elimination man
16703s	those Tammy whiffs putting in so much
16707s	work today I mean those revive items so
16709s	honestly just curious because I don't
16711s	know if you still but uh GG actually
16713s	used for referee all his monk all to try
16716s	to cover for Revive on their teammate
16718s	the revive goes through literally at the
16722s	moment they're free free hooks long form
16724s	drops allowing the player who literally
16728s	just got off to be immediately grabbed
16731s	out by gd's Kakashi on that high ground
16733s	and meaning that unfortunately for GG
16735s	they didn't get their third player back
16738s	into the mix and once again they were
16739s	isolated out they just lost their monk
16742s	all as well trying to cover for that
16744s	revive so that they didn't have to worry
16746s	about their kurumi being out of position
16748s	and like you said that should only have
16750s	fed more into the advantage that GD had
16753s	but it's those 10uists and to be honest
16756s	Rune Target focus wasn't really that for
16760s	a lot of the fight for a lot of those
16761s	teams the fact that Alliance literally
16763s	got away with murder is honestly kind of
16766s	tilting they had that High Ground they
16768s	get pushed away from GD I'm literally
16771s	looking at Lin with 25 sub 25 on his
16776s	health bar sitting in the middle in the
16779s	middle not on a sideline in the middle
16781s	and everybody is just so occupied GG and
16785s	te both looking at the fight in front of
16788s	them that Alliance get a full reset and
16791s	if they'd had ultimate could actually
16793s	probably have punished both of those two
16795s	teams by pushing them further away from
16797s	the center and back into the Zone it's
16800s	only down to Target Focus coming through
16802s	from GD finally that punishes Alliance
16805s	and doesn't allow them to regain and
16807s	recall any position in that final Zone
16810s	yeah I mean quite the hectic final Zone
16813s	and like you said not great Target
16816s	Acquisitions coming out of these team
16818s	allowing Alliance to kind of hold that
16820s	position and take the full reset there
16822s	but I mean man I I really the the MVP
16825s	has got to be a temmie man those whiffs
16828s	today have been insane we watched J team
16830s	get picked up all three of them in a
16833s	single temi wisp earlier today and it's
16834s	either Shield shredded and if it hadn't
16836s	been for that temmy was that he catches
16838s	out kakaishi here team GD easily would
16841s	have been our uh MVPs but it comes down
16844s	to jjh in the end they're able to get
16846s	that double gram or that double grab
16848s	immediately eliminate the threat that is
16851s	GD and immediately take control of the
16854s	final circle from everybody else with a
16857s	25.8 game score 13 eliminations GD with
16860s	12 going out a little earlier with a
16862s	17.8 and jdg with 10 a 17.5 but I want
16866s	to talk about team te even though they
16869s	go out relatively early seven
16871s	eliminations
16872s	13.7 game score in fourth place
16875s	te has not had a bad game today they
16880s	literally have either been towards that
16882s	top six range or they have been first
16885s	place now
16886s	it's it's like honestly this is probably
16888s	the lowest scoring game of the day is we
16891s	get to see how some of those stats
16893s	panned out no surprises the furry is the
16896s	one doing the majority of the damage
16897s	given just how quickly you do burn for
16899s	those monks when you're in that neck but
16902s	I mean Alex um oil rather Legion has to
16905s	be the MVP right those whips coming
16907s	through taking advantage again of the
16909s	fact that it's a very hectic final zone
16911s	so a lot of players are very much
16913s	focused on fighting rather than where
16915s	those wisps are going to be coming from
16917s	and just as we saw a lot of players
16918s	getting all of their positions so too
16921s	did a lot of players unfortunately
16922s	position themselves into those tummy
16924s	abilities
16925s	yeah taking a look here at AOW here and
16927s	I you know I want to give a shout out to
16929s	team AOW here today because one of the
16932s	things that they have struggled so much
16933s	with in the past has just been pure
16936s	consistency and they might not be at the
16938s	overall top of the leaderboard in terms
16941s	of points here today but they have
16943s	consistently played well they have
16946s	positioned well they've picked up
16947s	eliminations they've put up points on
16949s	the board every single game they haven't
16951s	had those sort of two or three zero
16953s	point games like we're used to seeing
16955s	out of AOW it has been all about
16958s	consistency here today and I have to say
16960s	if AOW is able to learn that level of
16965s	consistency and then have the kind of
16967s	one or two pop-off games that they're
16969s	used to having later in the season this
16972s	week even if they don't go in and win
16975s	the bi-weekly final will have been a
16976s	huge victory for them because being able
16979s	to learn that consistency is something
16980s	that so many teams in the league have
16982s	struggled with yeah you want to shout
16984s	out a or W I wanna show
16988s	I'm going to be taking the MVP away from
16991s	Legion but honestly like those some of
16993s	these fights even outside of using the
16996s	ultimate we got to see it in the replay
16997s	he's able to find the counter onto the
17000s	Takeda and then he's even able to use
17003s	the dropping of the mech pillar to
17006s	further stagger out his enemy so he can
17009s	continue to land those hits he wins that
17012s	fight the only reason that he goes down
17015s	that early is because the line's coming
17017s	for the third party which is such a
17019s	shame because he does so much to try to
17021s	clutch an eye for his team and be able
17023s	to buy themselves that time to be able
17025s	to get the revive but then the third
17026s	party comes through and he's very
17028s	quickly washed away because he's used so
17030s	many resources and already is very very
17032s	low that fight that unfortunately took a
17034s	little bit of time
17035s	yeah you know it's something we don't
17037s	talk about enough either is the the use
17039s	of the pillar right not only does it buy
17042s	you kind of a safe space where your team
17044s	can kind of hang around and anybody who
17046s	gets low can jump into it but you're
17048s	also effectively able to use that pillar
17050s	to knock people back in dire situations
17053s	and then set up space that you otherwise
17056s	didn't have before we actually saw it
17058s	not this game but the game before where
17060s	a team was hiding back in that tunnel I
17063s	do believe it was ewg and they dropped
17065s	the pillar in front to block cannon
17068s	shots that are coming through the pillar
17071s	has so much utility and that's why we
17075s	see in the the live patch not the
17078s	current patch that we're playing on the
17080s	fact that they immediately have to Nerf
17082s	it and go okay 30 is not enough It's
17084s	gotta be 50 but ladies and gentlemen
17087s	speaking of 50 we're gonna take a short
17090s	50 break here before we come back and
17092s	lock in for game at number six
17102s	there is no point to this Viper
17107s	you've spent too long I've never gotten
17111s	much and I am no Immortals
17118s	[Music]
17126s	but it is time to accept your fake sweet
17130s	daughter
17131s	you're not my mother you're a monster oh
17135s	ungrateful
17139s	is an honor for I allowed to serve me in
17142s	death as in life
17147s	[Music]
17148s	Viper and who is this past Justina group
17153s	Winter's Grace
17163s	thank you
17170s	[Music]
17177s	not that girlfriend said let's finish
17180s	this
17182s	[Music]
17197s	[Music]
17209s	thank you
17210s	[Music]
17221s	welcome back everybody
17223s	to the nbpl 2023 regular season and you
17228s	know what we're starting to wind down
17229s	for the day roon we've got one game left
17231s	but what we're not winding down on is
17233s	the excitement because I mean we're
17235s	getting to see some of these teams the
17237s	top 14 obviously go into the first
17239s	bi-weekly finals and honestly it's the
17242s	leaderboard at the top that we need to
17244s	talk about right vendors unfortunately
17246s	not doing too hot wolves as well
17248s	suffering from a couple of problems that
17250s	we saw rear its head and the last year
17253s	all the teams AOW really impressing
17255s	really having uh some great smart
17257s	decision making coming through wbg
17259s	unfortunately not having as brilliant a
17262s	second half as they started off with in
17264s	the day same goes for Alliance and JL
17266s	but it's the top seven that we have to
17269s	talk about more specifically the top
17271s	five I mean let's be honest actually the
17272s	top one because I'm guessing that te has
17276s	already been able to LeapFrog that way
17277s	from second spot into first with the
17280s	point that they've already been able to
17282s	put on the board no okay xcg still
17285s	standing strong
17286s	yeah it's it's very very close though
17288s	it's literally Five Points te hasn't had
17292s	less than five points today there's no
17294s	way they're going to this last match and
17295s	don't pick up uh the points needed to go
17298s	ahead and climb into that first place
17300s	position and te very very strong coming
17302s	in and this is a team again we we talked
17305s	about this you know you and me got
17306s	together uh before the spring split
17308s	started here and we talked about the
17311s	teams we wanted to keep our eye on and
17312s	team te was one of those teams that we
17315s	happily favored to do some exciting
17318s	things here and of course no surprises
17321s	they come in they absolutely deliver on
17324s	those expectations as they come in and
17327s	have played a very very dominant day
17330s	their first day was also very dominant
17332s	you know 77.6 points is nothing to
17334s	really scoff at in the face of all these
17337s	other teams and even when they aren't
17340s	having their best games they're still
17341s	having very good games you're talking
17344s	about a team that not only plays
17345s	consistently but but plays consistently
17348s	towards the top right because we have a
17350s	lot of teams who've been able to come in
17352s	and have pop-off games and then play
17353s	kind of like consistency games uh we'll
17355s	put you know seven to ten points on the
17357s	board and those teams typically do very
17360s	well they're towards the top 10 every
17362s	single week but a team like this who's
17364s	always top six and then how you know
17366s	they took three MVPs tonight they're a
17368s	hundred points in a single day up on the
17370s	board this is a very very strong team
17373s	and you know I went back and I checked
17375s	the statlines earlier just to see where
17377s	we were because we talked about earlier
17379s	how close they could potentially come to
17381s	kind of taking that top uh points in a
17385s	bi-weekly away from another team and how
17387s	much harder it is given that there's two
17389s	less teams in every one of these
17391s	bi-weeklies that stat line I was able to
17393s	find going back was the most points put
17395s	up on the board in a single day was
17398s	244. if they even come close to 200
17401s	which they're very close to I would call
17403s	that a success given that there's six
17405s	points less of available every single
17408s	game if they come close to 200 that's
17411s	massive for this first bi-weekly split
17415s	year I'm it's definitely a statement too
17417s	right
17418s	well everything else intro there's going
17419s	to be a statement is that a lot of these
17421s	teams have been trying to play smart
17422s	with compositions and heading into this
17425s	last match of the day we're really going
17427s	to get to see these teams that have been
17429s	smart have been Forward Thinking about
17431s	which Heroes to take and which hairs
17433s	they want to leave to still be able to
17435s	have points to put into those are the
17437s	teams that are going to be able to put
17439s	comprehensive compositions together and
17441s	find a lot of success and we've seen it
17443s	from teams like AOW we've seen it as
17445s	well from teams like te they are
17448s	thinking not just about the match
17450s	they're going into but how that's going
17452s	to impact what they play the match
17454s	afterwards this is a team that very much
17456s	does rely on momentum and since they
17458s	were able to pick it up very early and
17459s	find that confidence find that level of
17461s	aggression they've been able to keep it
17463s	running all throughout the day
17465s	yeah absolutely and again we saw them
17467s	change up like you said their
17469s	Transformer comp coming into this game
17471s	knowing that it was going to cost them
17473s	more points but they're able to come in
17474s	and lock down two Heroes they haven't
17477s	used all day to go with that Monk and it
17480s	is a more favorable version of the
17482s	complicated for most of these teams and
17484s	it didn't really slow them down at all
17486s	they tend to favor that more traditional
17488s	comp but you know they show why they're
17491s	Pro players here right they can swap
17493s	onto any hero and make it work
17495s	regardless of the comp so they change
17497s	that comp up save themselves some points
17499s	and I still think they have some points
17501s	available for themselves coming in to
17503s	our sixth and final game of the day so
17505s	it's gonna be interesting to see which
17507s	comp they actually run for the final
17510s	game here today and uh how well it
17513s	serves them I think te uh there there's
17515s	no doubt that they're gonna walk away
17516s	you know first place here it's just
17518s	whether it's a consistency game where
17520s	they have another pop-off game and walk
17522s	away with four MVPs it has been
17526s	um quite the hot minute since we've seen
17528s	a three-peat much less a four Pete here
17532s	in the nbpl I think we've only had one
17535s	day where a Trio's team was able to walk
17537s	away with uh four MVPs so this would be
17539s	the second time we've ever seen it
17541s	happen here in the nbpl I was gonna say
17544s	true is yes solos no good old spider
17547s	coming along and being like okay I'm
17549s	gonna have free MVPs and then you know
17551s	I'm gonna do one better and I'm gonna
17552s	put together four
17554s	oh what a player what a player spider
17557s	wrist but you know she doesn't Flex
17559s	between truths he solely keeps attention
17561s	on the solos even though I I feel like
17564s	spider honestly like some of his best
17566s	days might be able to 1v3 loves
17571s	all the way back in season two be able
17574s	to uh to solo one versus three entire
17578s	teams and I think for a lot of these
17580s	teams like you really do get to see the
17582s	clutch power coming on for like a lot of
17584s	the time we talk about oh so and so is
17585s	the carry because they're playing like
17587s	that massive chunk of damage deal like
17588s	little monkeys obviously going to be the
17590s	one that you look towards in terms of
17592s	the Transformer compositions the yodel
17594s	in terms of the Viper and the Wu Chan
17596s	but honestly some of these players who
17598s	play a quote-unquote more supporting
17599s	role are starting to be able to step it
17602s	up like you've seen in terms of temmie
17604s	plays sometimes they have more damage
17606s	than things like the monk because like
17609s	you said yourself they're taking more
17611s	forward aggressive positions to be able
17612s	to play off of those wisps as we've seen
17615s	different pacings and different shifts
17617s	of how those positions tend to play out
17619s	I want you to take a look at te look at
17622s	look here at how relaxed they look they
17625s	they just have in the time of their life
17627s	coming in here right
17629s	um lyd just chilling vvv in the middle
17632s	just like yeah we're having a good time
17634s	this is kind of what I expected to see
17636s	come out here from te this was a very
17639s	similar comp to uh what they ran when
17641s	they ran the uh Takeda comp on the
17643s	previous one they're just swapping out
17644s	uh for Matari here because they only
17646s	have the three hero points left so they
17649s	don't want to uh get themselves in a
17651s	situation where they're actually going
17652s	to lose points uh for running a hero
17654s	here and we are on more style night this
17657s	is the map where I expected to see more
17659s	cicada comps through come through even
17661s	though we're only seeing four of them I
17664s	think this is an extremely smart
17665s	decision on behalf of te and J team uh
17668s	because this is the map where you really
17670s	want to utilize that Takeda you have
17672s	access to so many fireflies and I'm not
17675s	gonna be surprised to see te or J team
17678s	because the j-team originally was the
17679s	team that kind of pioneered this comp
17681s	coming into Worlds uh last year and the
17685s	end of season two where they kind of
17686s	bring Takeda in on the map where you
17688s	have access to those resources to keep
17690s	his ultimate always up
17692s	um won't be surprised at all if you see
17694s	these two teams spawn where they know
17697s	there's going to be fireflies and
17698s	speaking of spawns we're going to take a
17700s	look here at these teams coming through
17702s	we're going to see ewg and te dropping
17705s	in here to uh celestra and this is going
17708s	to be very interesting because te has a
17710s	lot of positions they can push it out
17713s	from celestra and into fireflies so
17715s	they're looking to take that early
17717s	engagement without the fireflies they
17720s	have that level of confidence they can
17722s	just push in and take whatever they want
17723s	let's see Jay team spawning up towards
17726s	uh the side of sun wing and the thing is
17729s	is there are fireflies between where
17730s	they are and sun wing so they can take
17733s	this little fight here and either push
17735s	up into uh the temple or they can push
17738s	down into sun wing where that's that
17740s	gold loot Zone and pick themselves up
17741s	lots of loot jdg on a lot of art you
17744s	already find themselves a fight Alliance
17746s	going extremely low the Witch and blades
17749s	from Kobe just trying to come through
17750s	and provide a little bit more pressure
17751s	but he just doesn't get the opportunity
17753s	to be able to use them the golden Focus
17755s	already used up as a very early Yoda
17757s	ultimate comes through from Lucky
17759s	running those rage glyphs is able to
17761s	connect onto those players that's when
17763s	the Euro ultimate is going to have the
17764s	most amount of impact when it's early in
17766s	the game and you haven't been able to
17767s	find the armor to be able to pad and
17769s	sustain through the damage that the Yoda
17771s	pushes out KZ now turning into this
17774s	fight trying to push back into that
17775s	third party the temi ultimate entirely
17778s	locking down the members of Alliance and
17781s	allowing them to be able to clear off
17782s	one is lucky has to try and look for
17784s	that disengagement goes into celestra
17787s	losing Casey's line of sight so they're
17789s	not going to be able to aggressively
17791s	push in after him knowing that cilateral
17793s	was a hotly contested area especially
17795s	from the get-go and they just don't have
17797s	the loot to be able to try and contest
17798s	it as GG and GD now go Toe to Toe over
17803s	towards Eventide free free oh charging
17805s	up those nunchucks just give him a
17807s	little bit more space as he drops down
17808s	into Gorge already lost all of his armor
17811s	and half of his health not able to find
17813s	any sustainability from the can but it
17815s	is actually able to bait into his
17818s	Eurasian as GD dropped in a bane strap
17821s	trying to control Gigi's movement now
17824s	that the ultimate is there for the yui
17826s	under space is created even kurumi
17828s	ultimate now turning this fight against
17830s	GD kakaishi just not able to find that
17833s	pick onto three free a really good peel
17835s	coming through from the members of ggx
17837s	using that Eurasian ultimate before the
17839s	monk to be able to cover for free for
17841s	you and keep him alive long enough for
17843s	the ultimate to build up but he goes for
17845s	the reset the re-health in the middle of
17847s	a Bean's breath and now he has to rely
17849s	on GG to be able to still cover those
17852s	two members of GD in Gorge which they're
17854s	able to find thankfully before the beans
17857s	wrath punishes them
17858s	yeah really well played there by team GG
17861s	330 almost goes out to the Baines breath
17863s	though KZ once again finding themselves
17865s	in another engagement here using that
17867s	tummy to just try to lock down these
17869s	members of ewg two tick trying to use
17871s	the yodel to get themselves out of it
17874s	but unfortunately they are down a member
17876s	fajin going to make up here and ewg
17879s	gonna use that wu-chan old to get to
17881s	safety and it looks like KZ not quite
17884s	sure which direction ewg has gone ewg
17886s	with much worse gear gonna be forced to
17889s	completely back out of that fight and
17891s	find it themselves some much needed gear
17893s	heading in to this Zone one
17896s	now looking at team at jdg giving Chase
17899s	to the members of Team GD who just
17902s	narrowly escaped and were able to come
17903s	out on top of the team uh GD here Gigi
17906s	absolutely looking to lock some players
17909s	down 3 30 able to find a grab here can
17911s	he find the second grab no he doesn't
17913s	find the second grade no he does into
17915s	the double slam coming through and jdg
17918s	going to be forced to immediately use
17919s	the Wu channel to get out 3 30 looking
17922s	for the members of Team jdg seeing if
17925s	you can get some of those long grabs off
17926s	but doesn't look like he's going to be
17928s	able to find him and unfortunately in
17930s	the kill feed we see Jay team
17932s	completely eliminated here from the
17934s	sixth and final game before they even
17936s	find any sort of footing here in a game
17939s	number six GG's 330 locked down here in
17942s	that staff from it jdg's LSR two olds
17947s	committed from Team GG misky are really
17949s	gonna have to try to cover here for team
17952s	GG but a jdg's LSR coming in with the
17955s	Viper old could clutch this out for the
17958s	members of jdg looks like they're able
17960s	to almost get one stun off but they're
17962s	going to lose Xiao Hui so jdg actually
17965s	gonna be forced back off of this uh
17967s	fight and they're gonna lose two members
17969s	here LSR the last remaining member gets
17971s	the Viper old off on to one but it
17974s	doesn't matter as nobody's there to
17976s	follow it up and uh GG able to pick up
17979s	five eliminations yeah jdg are able to
17983s	use that which MTP to be able to
17985s	reposition prefer had to drop the
17987s	ultimate film very very quickly and that
17989s	was when jdg full they would be able to
17991s	turn back into that fight and come in
17992s	secure with that Viper ultimate at least
17995s	one pick onto GG but again we see that
17998s	UV ultimate come through and cover the
18000s	entire members so even for refrio
18002s	doesn't go down and as a result once the
18005s	Viper ultimate has taken off the table
18007s	as a frat that comp just absolutely
18009s	falls apart as there was no follow-up
18010s	damage the Yoda ultimate had already
18012s	been burned in the fight prior won the
18014s	ultimate from free Frio had come through
18016s	as we now head over and have a look at
18019s	Casey who once again are trying to
18021s	isolate out some of these players hazy
18023s	holding on to this transformation
18024s	doesn't use it just yet the main
18026s	initiation and engagement in these
18028s	fights has been locked down one player
18030s	heard them away from that Squad and then
18032s	keep them in position with a tummy
18033s	ultimate it doesn't feel like they have
18034s	a temmie ultimate right now or rather
18036s	they don't want to use it knowing how
18038s	close some of these other teams are they
18039s	want to hold on to it to stop any third
18041s	party to come through and they are still
18043s	able to find the Pick It was one versus
18045s	three so they understood they didn't
18046s	have to Pro ultimates and they could
18048s	just overwhelm with numbers and
18049s	staggerate alone and as a result they do
18052s	have even more reserves if other teams
18055s	try and tune into them teams like wolves
18057s	who are very close behind them in the
18059s	vicinity Benji throwing out thou with
18061s	not gonna be able to pick up members of
18062s	KZ and now that it's out of Terror and
18065s	out of fret Casey can start to look to
18067s	push in sorrow however going to be able
18069s	to push back into the members of wolves
18072s	showing up as that third party member
18074s	and meaning that Casey don't really find
18076s	the opportunity that they were looking
18078s	for to overwhelm a member of wolves when
18080s	they were split away from the pack
18082s	yeah you know KZ playing this very smart
18084s	here like you said holding on to those
18086s	ultimates looking to isolate players and
18088s	kind of pick up scraps AOW getting ready
18090s	to push it on to them here but because
18091s	they haven't hyper committed to a fight
18093s	they do have those ultimates available
18095s	and you know when you're temi into temi
18097s	you have to be very careful because if
18099s	Casey had gone in and burned the Timmy
18101s	to try to lock down team wolves there of
18103s	course wolves could have just popped
18104s	their Timmy old in return and both teams
18106s	would have had free reign to go around
18108s	and it would have been a waste of an old
18110s	from Team kzkz now being pushed on by
18112s	AOW though needs to start burning some
18114s	of those ultimates we're gonna see hazy
18116s	do exactly that as uh Wukong here trying
18119s	it to make something happen with the
18120s	Yoda email ultimate Ping Tao coming in
18122s	with the vipero this could be absolutely
18125s	massive they're able to split hazley
18126s	away from the team lock them down the
18128s	Tamil gonna come in trying to save him
18130s	from those cannon shots from Ping Tao
18132s	but it's not going to be enough as we do
18133s	see hazy picked up by AOW here and now
18136s	it's a 2v2 shoe Tong trying to make
18139s	something happen here no sorry a3v2 I
18142s	misspoke chutunga trying to get in we
18145s	will see that dagger come into that
18147s	massive Soul Jade putting in work and
18149s	now it's just foging and it looks like
18152s	KZ their strategy to hold ultimates kind
18155s	of backfiring a little bit there they
18157s	waited too long to burn the temi old
18159s	there didn't buy themselves enough space
18161s	their monk was already gone
18163s	realistically by the time we see the
18166s	temiolt come through they don't get any
18168s	mileage out of the temio as soon as they
18170s	get separated they've burnt too many
18172s	ultimates for not enough at gas and we
18174s	see them go down
18176s	fell as well like they use that monk all
18178s	knowing that wukong's your ultimate was
18181s	about to drop out and that they would
18182s	then become grabbable but Wukong is
18185s	actually able to do something really
18186s	nice which is he uses that last teleport
18188s	again to break line of sight from the
18191s	monk drop out of the ultimate and then
18193s	come back in to nip at the Monk's feet
18196s	and we get stuck in the animation of the
18198s	monk not being able to find the grabs in
18200s	time with the tap Dodgers that come
18201s	through from the players of melee they
18203s	throw in the temi Ultima but because iow
18205s	have already closed up the distance it
18207s	doesn't dissuade the dagger from being
18209s	able to finally dispatch the Monk and
18212s	all it does is unfortunately lock the
18214s	monk into that duel with two members of
18217s	AOW that he very quickly loses when the
18220s	temi ultimate drops out so two other
18222s	members of KZ still separated Alliance
18225s	will be able to separate themselves from
18227s	the fight against wolves with a witch
18228s	and TP to be able to get a revive but
18231s	our focus is immediately going to turn
18232s	to the gates of Yang as wbg immediately
18236s	going toe-to-toe with GD both Kakashi
18239s	and Sleepwalker looking for a
18240s	transformation however Sleepwalk has
18242s	already found a grab but kakaishi moves
18244s	forward keeping the monk punted so he's
18246s	not actually able to find the slam onto
18248s	the player and as a result we actually
18250s	see that semi ultimate come firstly
18251s	poker charging up the Dragon Slayers not
18254s	able to connect it onto Kakashi's case
18256s	going for that neck and continues to
18258s	push Prussia onto these members of wbg
18261s	so they can't actually Hound Kakashi's
18263s	how far down therefore recreating so
18265s	much space for this month to be able to
18267s	work with that he's able to get almost
18268s	all of his ultimate off and it's only
18270s	now as we see the yui come from wbg
18273s	punishing the fact that despite kakaishi
18275s	getting that much room he wasn't able to
18277s	find any pick other than one Sleepwalker
18279s	now however going to go down Jing surely
18282s	without that ultimate to be able to hide
18283s	behind also going to follow suit and
18285s	it's going to be some really smart team
18287s	play coming through from GED that
18288s	secures themselves this fight
18290s	yeah absolutely smart coming in from GD
18293s	to be able to lock down this they're
18296s	gonna get that Vermillion Birds might
18297s	that they desperately want here we're
18298s	also going to see team at te pick up one
18301s	as well ewg looking to pick up a draco
18305s	store mayor obviously not the optimal
18308s	buff but when you're going after uh the
18310s	Moore's blessings uh you take what you
18312s	can get it's kind of interesting we
18314s	haven't seen a lot from te this
18316s	particular game but we do see the fact
18318s	that they will win out uh their fight
18321s	inside the realm of Yang here so they do
18323s	pick up some eliminations and they pick
18325s	up that Vermillion Birds my event is
18327s	here coming in heavy on to Jay team and
18330s	this is again we see j-team get
18332s	eliminated completely early here they
18335s	have one elimination and go out and it's
18337s	very unfortunate for Jay team given how
18339s	well they've performed today for them to
18341s	go out so early in the sixth and final
18343s	game and now turning your attention to
18345s	team wolves who's had a much different
18348s	uh kind of game here for themselves as
18350s	they they come in and lock down yet
18352s	another elimination turning back here
18354s	GG's 330 going extremely low wbeg just
18359s	standing in the ultimate here and we see
18361s	why kurumi so strong here for these
18363s	Transformers 330 is going to go down and
18366s	I too believe that is going to be it for
18368s	team GG as well wbg will pick up uh
18373s	those oh my goodness the soul blooms
18376s	that they desperately need to get rid of
18378s	that Yang depletion we're gonna turn now
18380s	our attention to team te giving Jace to
18382s	team jdg here of course they have that
18385s	vermilion's bird might they're more than
18386s	happy to chase a straggler down because
18388s	even if they run into another team here
18390s	they want this bounty off of their
18393s	Target and they do not care if they find
18396s	themselves in a bad position because
18397s	they have their get out of jail free
18399s	card and jdg's LSR just wants nothing to
18402s	do with this he's trying to create space
18403s	he's trying to move around he can't
18405s	really hide he just has to stay on the
18407s	move because of that Bounty Target
18409s	coming through here he is is LSR
18411s	lockdown we're going to see those Spears
18413s	getting put in to use but LSR able to
18415s	use his grapples and stay airborne
18417s	really wants to keep this fight off the
18419s	ground where he can just be locked down
18422s	due to the numbers advantage and it's up
18424s	to the members of Team tee to really
18427s	find a way to lock him down LSR just
18430s	trying to keep separate from Kopi here
18432s	because he does have another team member
18434s	left alive and he wants to get te as far
18438s	away as humanly possible I don't think
18440s	he really thinks he's capable of
18443s	surviving this but if he can oh
18447s	I spoke
18448s	soon Kobe sitting out of range where we
18452s	can see there's a hundred meter range on
18453s	that yep is able to find the teleport
18456s	and because as well like the Viper was
18458s	able to bait to eat so far away by the
18461s	time they're actually able to make it to
18463s	where the Viper was teleported to that
18464s	Banshee is going to be gone
18466s	I really small play really good baiting
18470s	as well coming through from the Viper to
18472s	guaranteed that you're able to survive
18473s	because not only were you able to keep
18475s	yourself alive you beta te into using
18478s	the majority of their Vermillion Birds
18480s	might to push and chase after you so
18483s	that's gonna mean that this Lobby is
18486s	immediately going to be able to speed up
18488s	once again because there's still 29
18490s	players left te and GD both really not
18493s	able to take advantage of the Buffs that
18496s	they were able to find because once
18497s	again everyone just goes to ground when
18499s	you see a team that doesn't have a buff
18501s	that's when you look for the engagement
18502s	as a sorrow with a bounty on his head
18504s	has no choice but to hold himself in
18506s	this fight wolves once again
18507s	unfortunately going to be falling short
18510s	of these lobbies and not having a
18513s	brilliant day it really does feel like
18514s	some of those issues now we've seen wolf
18516s	struggle within the past are once again
18518s	ruining their head because of this new
18520s	matter just throwing off that pacing a
18522s	little bit more and making it harder for
18524s	this team to be able to predict when
18525s	they want to pull that aggression or
18527s	when they want to play more defensively
18529s	te now without Vermillion Birds might
18532s	gonna be checking all of the bushes
18533s	making sure that no one with uh just one
18536s	player remaining on their triggers is
18538s	sitting around in a bush and waiting it
18540s	out to play for survivability or rebirth
18542s	chance as KZ now going to be pushing on
18546s	forward not really getting to see a team
18548s	within their sights but just playing a
18550s	little bit more aggressive following
18552s	after the Bounty as well coming through
18554s	from te on to jdg so this team can
18557s	continue that aggression
18559s	yeah you know unfortunately for team
18561s	wolves here it's it's that mid-game
18563s	aggression that continues to cost them
18564s	they're able to put up a ton of initial
18567s	eliminations here with eight
18568s	eliminations on the board but that
18570s	mid-game aggression continues to find
18572s	them
18573s	falling into unfavorable fights or third
18575s	parties and because of that they once
18578s	again are eliminated here in the mid
18579s	game even though they have enough points
18582s	that they could have carried into late
18583s	game and put up quite a substantial
18585s	score just by having better placement
18587s	here it's unfortunate to see wolves
18590s	suffering from the same problems we've
18592s	consistently seen time and time again
18594s	from this team it's like they almost
18597s	don't learn like you said the pacing
18599s	just coming through and making those
18601s	problems even worse for themselves
18602s	Alliance here going head-to-head with
18604s	the members of jjh but Alliance going to
18606s	lose two of their members
18607s	instantaneously jjh here uh having burnt
18611s	at least one of their ultimates not
18613s	gonna be able to go and attempt take
18614s	this realm of Yang and unfortunately
18616s	here oh no I I misspoke I just couldn't
18618s	see one of the members of JL I thought
18620s	for a second JL was forced to take this
18622s	and lose one of their members but they
18624s	are not it will be JL against the full
18627s	roster of wbg and the full roster of JL
18629s	as we see a grab come through here from
18632s	Sleepwalker a huge slam on to as Takeda
18635s	really trying to throw that old to keep
18636s	the slam from coming through but it not
18638s	quite happening Sleepwalker being forced
18640s	to come in by the team a little space
18642s	here another grab on to as looks for the
18644s	slam it might be able to get it off in
18646s	time gets a double grab but can't get
18648s	the slam gets greedy Sleepwalker could
18650s	have gotten the extra slam there on to
18654s	a.s from JL but instead tries to get the
18657s	double grab doesn't have enough time
18659s	left remaining on the ultimate and this
18661s	could cost them a fairly heavily here as
18663s	jails as very low but still alive here
18666s	in this game does finally go down
18668s	Sleepwalker caught out entirely here
18670s	though to the remaining members of uh
18674s	wbgzu able to get a little bit of
18676s	Separation here Sleepwalker finally able
18678s	to move away Feng locked down in
18681s	merciless havoc and that's going to be
18683s	it wbg is able to pick up the fight
18686s	almost costs themselves uh there with a
18689s	greedy attempt for the double grab
18690s	they're able to turn things back around
18692s	onto JL and win that realm of Yang now
18695s	AOW locked down here by the members of
18698s	KZ no place to go you've got a ferry on
18700s	you you've got Jen chasing you that's
18702s	gonna be it AOW sent back to the lobby
18705s	here in game number six at wvg picking
18708s	up Mystic my Juventus likewise picking
18710s	up the exact same buff well lion seeing
18713s	that Casey are ahead of them just
18714s	pushing in with a little bit of Cannon
18716s	pressure before swapping and pushing
18718s	back under the slope to make it harder
18720s	for those ranged pressures to push them
18722s	towards taking an unfortunate Anglers
18724s	Juventus are behind them Juventus have
18727s	Mystic might so they have full awareness
18729s	of the fight they're heading into which
18730s	is why we're seeing that Viper come
18732s	through Tammy ultimate to try to be able
18734s	to counter it because now we see burnt
18737s	is pushing in with that cicada ultimate
18738s	catching on to those members of that
18741s	it's caught into that Tammy ultimate
18743s	with keeping everybody locked down in
18745s	position as KZ coming for the third
18748s	party didn't need Mystic Mike to see
18750s	what venters were up to and decide to
18752s	hold and then pull now that the
18754s	ultimates have been burned from both of
18756s	these teams which and TP comes through
18758s	from a lie it's the same is not there
18759s	for Ventus however in KZ now have to
18762s	decide how they want to take this Ventus
18764s	backing on off sanzi not wanting to take
18766s	the engagement and allowing Casey a
18768s	little bit more control as unfortunately
18770s	for Alliance dentists most likely headed
18775s	that way once again but one thing
18776s	Alliance actually decided not to TP
18779s	behind Casey instead they tv'd in front
18782s	of them
18784s	you know I I've got a question for you
18785s	Moxie where has this KZ been all day
18788s	they like honestly they're playing their
18791s	absolute Minds out in this particular
18793s	game with their positioning their
18795s	ability to stay on target uh their
18797s	target acquisition who they're targeting
18799s	out in these fights and then of course
18801s	again that positioning just coming in
18803s	huge for them able to find advantages
18805s	fight after advantageous fight if
18808s	they're capable of this why have we not
18810s	seen it all day coming in from a KZ uh
18813s	unfortunately we turn now our attention
18815s	to JL going head to head here with the
18818s	members of jjh and jjh on a little bit
18821s	of a backflip God Lee completely uh
18824s	caught out here by the members of JL but
18827s	uh jail needs to be careful about
18828s	continuing the pressure on this fight
18830s	because te waiting the wings up above
18832s	they see the bow shots and decide
18834s	automatically we need to go ahead and
18835s	back out of this but they have to be
18837s	careful because they have that uh Yang
18839s	depletion they need to pick up
18841s	eliminations where they can a te coming
18843s	in onto J L now JL not quite creating
18846s	the space that they needed to to get
18848s	away from this third party and it's
18849s	going to be Zu who's now the person
18851s	caught out and completely locked down
18854s	returning the favor uh for team uh jjh
18858s	te comes in and locks down one of the
18860s	members of JL the same way Godly was
18863s	locked down KZ man really having quite a
18867s	good game for themselves eight
18868s	eliminations under their belt they just
18871s	went and picked up some much more needed
18872s	uh supplies there from the shop and some
18875s	soul Jades for themselves purple armor
18877s	across the board it looks like purple
18879s	weapons as well which is great for this
18881s	Transformers comp moving into this mid
18883s	to late game stage as they are looking
18886s	to now just survive get to that late
18889s	game and uh secure as many eliminations
18891s	as possible in those final circles yeah
18894s	you asked me
18898s	a little bit it's just conference and
18899s	also feeling at the pacing of the new
18901s	meta right then making these really just
18904s	snap decisions of finding a player
18906s	hurting them away dropping the Tammy
18908s	ultimate to find the confirmation of the
18909s	kill and then disengaging like they're
18912s	not over committing they're not over
18914s	aggressing they're not dropping on other
18915s	ultimates into one fight so even when
18917s	the Tammy ultimate has burned through
18919s	they haven't been able to secure the
18921s	pick they have two other ultimates to be
18922s	able to cover their backs especially
18924s	things like that Mongol like the second
18926s	you throw it into a fight teams tend to
18928s	back out because it's the game plan
18929s	right it's how you deal with a monk comp
18931s	if you're not running something like a
18933s	Viper you go in you trigger the monk
18935s	into altering up and then you disengage
18938s	so that the monk has to drop it and you
18940s	don't give them the opportunity to swap
18941s	into the Cannons to be able to ball that
18943s	rage up faster Casey just with a little
18945s	adjustment on the pacing and throwing
18947s	some of these players I would have
18949s	positioned once again they've identified
18950s	someone out of position but do they
18953s	actually commit to this fight no because
18955s	te show up as a full free play a stack
18959s	and Casey even though they had a very
18961s	small slim winter of opportunity
18963s	immediately see that it's not going to
18965s	go that way if they try and push in they
18967s	could potentially get third partied back
18969s	off so they can keep a better eye of the
18971s	Morris blessing
18973s	yeah absolutely and if you notice it's
18974s	far Jean in the front line here for the
18977s	members of KZ looking to use that
18979s	ultimate but doesn't burn it even though
18981s	they think they have a member of te
18982s	caught out because they're trying to
18984s	secure this Moore's blessing and they're
18986s	desperately going to need that all if
18987s	they want to secure it fajin taking a
18990s	moment to repair here looking to come in
18992s	and they all three need to hyper commit
18995s	to pushing onto this but unfortunately
18997s	Fijian can't really use the alt here to
19000s	try to secure the Morse blessing for the
19001s	team because you see here uh Team
19003s	aventis also has a temmie if he drops
19006s	that old and the other temmie pushes
19007s	forward in they can just drop their
19009s	ultimate and keep them from being able
19012s	to use it to hide themselves and secure
19014s	the Box KZ able to create just enough
19016s	pressure though that they're able to get
19018s	the box for themselves if you see
19020s	they're actually running into these rain
19022s	shots picking up what they want from the
19023s	box and now they're getting out of Dodge
19025s	and they still haven't committed that
19028s	temi ultimate playing very smart into
19030s	another team that has a Timmy ultimate
19032s	capable of canceling yours out Casey
19034s	knows they want to hold on to this
19036s	especially as the third party potential
19038s	shows up as wbg also looking uh to get
19041s	some gear out of that box shows up
19044s	looking for the third party but KZ
19047s	playing very very smart with your
19049s	positionals here able to just back out
19052s	generate space and hold on to all three
19055s	of their ultimates without having to
19057s	over commit to anything I mean not only
19060s	that the one else but that they used to
19062s	actually bait that potential third party
19063s	from uh girl it's the monkey you go up
19067s	and that immediately invites that
19069s	contestant of range and repeating
19070s	crossbows which actually forced Ventus
19073s	to back away so that Casey comes in
19075s	picks up the legendary armor and legs it
19076s	then just now are stuck in a really
19078s	tough spot they have to push on to JL
19081s	but if they over commit immediately
19083s	Casey is going to be able to push back
19085s	onto them so do a wbg we were just
19088s	waiting up there pushing so much damage
19090s	so much Focus fire onto Ventus trying to
19093s	bait out that temi ultimate so they can
19095s	finally hard commit and here comes Katie
19097s	they've been able to look for that reset
19099s	they're trying to push Ventus into wbg
19101s	so they can find a kill without Ventus
19104s	turning onto them because they're going
19105s	to have to look for the disengagement
19106s	and allow KZ that opportunity to look
19109s	through that however not part of the
19111s	plan brilliant Bell coverage though
19113s	coming through from hazy once she's out
19115s	of that with to be able to survive and
19117s	make sure the event is aren't actually
19119s	able to move off of an opportunity that
19122s	should have been that one the monk or
19123s	cropped up
19124s	yeah absolutely those wisps putting in
19127s	so much work today from these tummies
19130s	we've seen tummies in these comps time
19132s	and time again in season one and season
19134s	two as The Meta has evolved and the
19137s	teams have adapted but I don't think
19138s	we've quite seen it the temmies as clean
19140s	as we've seen them this season here in
19143s	the spring split these players who have
19146s	been playing temi clearly not just
19148s	sitting on their Laurels and going okay
19150s	I can play temmie have been putting in
19152s	the practice over the last two months
19154s	during the off season to make the most
19157s	of temi on these comps and him instead
19160s	of him just sort of being a cover for
19163s	the teams they're sucking out every
19165s	ounce of Advantage they can get from
19167s	these temi players oh look at this
19170s	engagement from Casey Ben just remember
19172s	we're forced to be stuck in a horrible
19174s	position and as a result they're the
19176s	ones vulnerable that everyone is turning
19178s	onto pixel goes down having to run into
19180s	te trying to escape Casey wbg
19183s	immediately turns on and attempting to
19185s	escape sanzi and Casey yes they don't
19188s	find the pick but they've still
19190s	eliminated competition now they just
19192s	pull back they don't want to make
19193s	themselves a Target once again we see
19195s	fans and just move forward a little bit
19196s	more aggressively than the others with
19198s	the Cannons making sure no one tries to
19200s	pressure out the other two members of
19202s	Casey when they're looking for that
19203s	reach that moment as they still haven't
19206s	hot committed into these fights they
19207s	still haven't committed ultimates so as
19209s	a result even though yes they're a
19211s	little bit closer towards the edge of
19212s	the zone and they don't have all of the
19214s	cover that they're looking for no one
19216s	actually has the confidence to be able
19218s	to challenge them and KZ decided they're
19221s	going to move to the central belt first
19222s	before anyone can try and turn on them
19224s	taking advantage of the fact that
19226s	everyone else is going to be so occupied
19227s	trying to keep a little corner of the
19230s	Zone safe for them that no one even
19232s	looks as they just run out in the open
19235s	and just go straight onto a box
19237s	I KZ here playing this very very well I
19239s	want you to take a look at the suboxie
19241s	there's only nine players left remaining
19242s	it's three full teams wbg KZ and te
19245s	going Head to Head te trying to create
19248s	pressure on to wbg here wbg just gonna
19251s	back out of the space don't want to give
19253s	it and of course so while this pseudo
19255s	fight is going on kizzy more than happy
19257s	to take the box yes they don't have
19259s	quite that advantageous of position
19260s	because they're on this High Ground out
19262s	in the open with only that one rock for
19264s	cover but because te and wbg are
19268s	fighting over the advantageous position
19269s	they're able to secure that Moore's
19270s	blessing and have not one but two sets
19273s	of legendary armor for themselves here
19275s	uh two flamers and a legendary dagger on
19278s	to gen as well they really setting
19281s	themselves up for Success here te just
19283s	getting blitzed down with all of these
19285s	rain shots and you know KZ patiently
19288s	waiting still holding their ultimates
19290s	doesn't want to commit anything here te
19292s	pushing on to wbg wbg gonna be forced to
19296s	pop this Mongol ultimate nft te can keep
19298s	themselves away from wbg here this could
19301s	actually spell disaster for wbg as
19304s	they've committed so much to this fight
19306s	yeah KZ wants to come in for that
19308s	potential third party now Jing using
19311s	those fire arrows to their advantage to
19313s	just continue to pump out damage
19314s	unfortunately does finally get caught by
19317s	uh the members of KZ here Jing going
19321s	extremely low off the slam here no
19323s	Shields left available to the name and
19325s	te still fully stacked all their
19327s	ultimates available they're just waiting
19329s	for the hard commitment between wbg and
19332s	KZ to happen so that they can come in
19334s	off of the third party Jing about to go
19336s	down we're gonna see yet another
19337s	ultimate locked in here by wbg with the
19341s	kurumi old coming through KZ has burnt
19344s	at least one of their ultimates if not
19347s	two as well and te is gonna find
19350s	themselves in a very opportune position
19351s	here very soon as wbg and KZ continue to
19356s	go head to head here there there's the
19358s	Tammy old this is the moment te is
19360s	waiting for is waiting for that Tammy
19361s	old to go ahead and get burnt so they
19363s	can push in without fear of having one
19365s	of their members separated into this
19366s	third party and te still sitting down
19369s	below waiting for more of those
19371s	resources than that temio to go
19373s	completely away wbg now turned on to te
19376s	might buy the opening that KZ needs to
19379s	take control of this fight the
19380s	Sleepwalker is able to find their
19381s	ultimate again goes for the slam onto
19384s	lyd but can't quite follow through as he
19386s	gets stunned out from up above and
19388s	Sleepwalker not able to find the
19391s	commitment he wants from either of these
19394s	teams here so he's not able to land
19396s	those grabs the Sleepwalker typically
19398s	able to find all the double grabs he
19400s	wants here but these two teams playing
19401s	very very well we're going to see a
19403s	member of lyd we're sorry of te go very
19405s	low txj just getting blitzed down here
19407s	needs to back out but once again it's KZ
19410s	going head to head with wbg and te
19412s	looking for that third party but txj
19414s	needing to get a heal off here that
19416s	flamer coming through putting in
19418s	absolute work on to hazy hazy going
19420s	extremely low and we're gonna see those
19422s	double flamers putting in at work there
19424s	it is hazy goes down and it's about to
19427s	completely open up here as the te needs
19430s	the full commit to this fight on to wbg
19432s	and kzlyd able to find an elimination on
19436s	to Jing now it's a 3v2 V2 scenario here
19439s	Sleepwalker able to find the ultimate
19441s	yet again looking to lock onto anybody
19443s	PP able to get it together but not for
19446s	long enough it's txj able to find the
19448s	elimination they find another
19449s	elimination on the pp that's gonna be it
19451s	p-x sorry t e is able to come out on top
19455s	yet again with their fourth victory of
19460s	the day
19461s	they don't rise to the bait okay Ziggy
19464s	is just doing everything they can in our
19466s	final Zone to mash to mash those two
19470s	teams into going at it the T they decide
19473s	okay no we know that you're trying to
19475s	force us into wbg we know that you swap
19477s	towards those cannons and you're
19478s	literally trying to make us grapple into
19480s	wvg expand ultimates and then you come
19482s	in for the third parties they don't rise
19484s	to it instead they identify that yeah
19487s	they might take a little bit of range
19488s	damage if they just pull up in that
19490s	little side room as the Zone starts to
19492s	close on through but what they do is
19493s	they save ultimates and they guarantee
19495s	that they have control of that low
19497s	ground so wbg decided they want to take
19499s	control of High Ground so that
19501s	Sleepwalker has that ledge to be able to
19503s	land and continue to apply pressure on
19505s	those players below so your other two
19507s	teammates can swap to things like the
19509s	Cannons and just keep you bunched
19511s	against that clear face because either
19512s	you try and grapple up and you grapple
19514s	into a monk that's ready to grab you and
19516s	snatch you out of the air or you hold
19517s	that position and you go down to the
19519s	cannon fire that's wbg's plan the
19521s	problem problem as wbg's plan puts them
19523s	Prime Center focus for Casey to try and
19526s	turn onto and te they just wait they
19529s	wait for that first time the ultimate to
19530s	come through from Casey they know that
19532s	it's removed they know that Katie has
19534s	been operating and initiating all of
19535s	these fights off of those Tammy
19537s	ultimates and they wait and they wait
19539s	and they wait and then they push back
19542s	and it's that patience that ability to
19544s	understand the win condition for the
19546s	other teams around them and not just to
19548s	get caught up in the moment and think
19550s	we're going to push onto wbg and then
19552s	we're gonna push back onto KZ they wait
19554s	they hold off and it means that they
19556s	were able to secure that
19563s	Casey make absolute history stomping
19568s	into first position we questioned oh
19569s	maybe it's gonna be a regular game or is
19571s	it gonna be a pop-up game nah it's gonna
19573s	be a pop-up game
19574s	yeah look te comes in and they play very
19577s	very well they know they're a late game
19579s	comp uh with the way that they're
19581s	playing they come in they're looking to
19583s	lock down the final Zone when they
19584s	realize and identify that there's three
19585s	teams left they know the two teams who
19588s	initiate that are the teams that are
19590s	going to lose there's no question about
19592s	that whatsoever
19594s	Casey tries to bait that fight out they
19597s	try to stagger their ultimates and by
19599s	themselves you know buy themselves space
19602s	wbg looks more than happy to continue to
19605s	try to commit onto those fights but
19607s	every time if you notice they're just
19609s	kind of tiptoeing their way into the
19611s	fight they're trying to initiate te's
19615s	response to the third party back off let
19619s	those two teams go head to head while
19621s	they get a reset and then are able to
19622s	come in for a third party but
19623s	unfortunately te's not falling for any
19626s	of it they just continue to let wbg and
19630s	KZ commit ultimate and commit resources
19632s	into one another and anytime wbg tries
19636s	to tease te into the fight or tries to
19639s	tease te into a fight with them te like
19643s	you said happy to take the range damage
19644s	and just back off even when txj goes
19648s	extremely low wbg tries to turn that
19651s	fight on to team te but KZ recognizes an
19656s	opportunity when wvg turns their back
19658s	and goes in with that txj instead of
19661s	going in and committing to the fight
19663s	immediately finds the opportunity to
19666s	take a reset and as soon as one member
19669s	from either wbg or KZ are eliminated te
19673s	sees that this is the opportunity this
19676s	is the moment they don't have the temio
19678s	Sleepwalker might have old but we can
19681s	pressure this fight these two teams are
19685s	now committed to do or die as soon as
19687s	one of the other members die and t e is
19690s	able to slide in take that Victory
19692s	condition away from both teams get the
19694s	clean third party and because of it they
19696s	pick up multiple eliminations a first
19698s	place finish and they pick up their
19700s	fourth first place finish of the day
19703s	absolutely massive for team te I still
19707s	have to give a round of applause to team
19708s	KB here KZ played this game out of their
19711s	absolute Minds the way they were able to
19714s	position the way they were able to use
19716s	that Tamil to lock teams down the thing
19718s	is the really the only thing is that
19721s	into this you know final fight every
19724s	team recognizes that the win condition
19725s	was that third party and also te being
19729s	able to recognize okay hey that the win
19732s	condition for KZ here is that temi
19735s	ultimate is what essentially wins them
19737s	the game even though KZ is playing so
19740s	smart at some point they are going to be
19742s	forced to pop that temi ultimate te
19744s	knows that and is unwilling to burn a
19749s	single resource until that happens they
19752s	just have to play the game out wait for
19756s	that resource to be burnt and then they
19759s	know that the third party they're
19760s	looking for is Gonna Come to them again
19762s	I I really have to give it to team Daisy
19765s	they played their minds off here but te
19767s	just had the overall better decision
19770s	making and plays here they come out in
19772s	that first place Juventus has 12
19774s	eliminations under the belt but they go
19775s	out too early te with a 22.6 game score
19778s	Ventus with the 20 point game score and
19780s	wbg with that second place finish 10
19783s	eliminations under there about is gonna
19784s	walk away with a 19 point game score
19788s	I mean I'm just hoping that we're going
19790s	to see that Casey more often right
19793s	because we did see that sort of
19795s	turnaround they had the Synergy they had
19796s	the understanding of this Tammy ultimate
19798s	is super important but we can have a
19800s	look at the stats of how exactly te were
19804s	able to pull off a fourth MVP and it is
19808s	off of a back of just that
19810s	sustainability with that zip knowing and
19812s	understanding if you don't hard commit
19814s	into some of those fights yeah you're
19816s	gonna take a little bit of poke damage
19818s	but the zip is always going to be able
19819s	to make sure that you're topped off when
19821s	the fight itself begins worse for the
19823s	other teams you can't really pressure
19825s	them inside of that room you can't hard
19828s	commit into the fight because the Zip's
19830s	just gonna drop bubble and everyone's
19831s	going to Grapple away disengage and then
19834s	they're going to push onto you forcing
19837s	you that I've used that Samuel Smith
19838s	inside this morning to stop the range
19840s	damage from turning against you or just
19842s	going down to range damage from the
19844s	clock yeah here's benches his fight
19846s	earlier with Jay team where they're able
19848s	to
19849s	wolves here with a very clean fight
19852s	early on to jail again wolves
19854s	had a great commitment early we're able
19856s	to pick up
19858s	a bid game aggression where they're not
19860s	able to back off quite the way they want
19862s	to cost them way too heavily wbg here
19865s	into an extremely clean fight as well
19867s	AOW fighting KZ here not in the most
19870s	optimal situations as Casey is just able
19873s	to catch one of their members out and
19875s	then continues to clean things up and
19877s	this year man there's just nothing that
19878s	Groupon can do they've got the long
19880s	range they've got the short range
19881s	covered and they have the mid-range
19883s	cover uh te coming in here in the end
19885s	again it just identifying the win
19887s	condition right knowing that that third
19890s	party is what they need to win here and
19893s	honestly I have to give it to team te
19896s	here because not only do they identify
19897s	okay hey we need the third party to win
19900s	here
19901s	wbg is sitting in the advantageous
19903s	position on that little uh Crossway
19906s	across there where they have cover
19907s	underneath and on top and te pushes on
19911s	to them knowing that wbg can't commit to
19916s	saving that space for themselves but
19918s	because if they do they open themselves
19920s	up to the third party from KZ and wdg
19924s	wants to take the victory so t e
19927s	actually uses that to the advantage of
19930s	vix wbg from that space
19933s	wbg doesn't have the wherewithal to
19936s	return the favor knowing you know the
19939s	same thing they could have easily pushed
19940s	onto te and te if they committed to
19943s	saving that space open themselves up to
19945s	the third party from KZ wdg doesn't want
19949s	to play the footsie game gets themselves
19951s	pushed to the side where they're forced
19954s	to start trading ultimates with KZ
19955s	eventually opening up the temi ultimate
19958s	which opens up the line of victory for a
19961s	team te to push in it and capitalize on
19964s	the third party and it's you know it's a
19967s	damned if you do damned if you don't
19968s	sort of situation for wbg but you
19971s	sometimes have to play that mental game
19973s	with the other teams yes te evicts you
19976s	you need to go back in and evict tea e
19978s	knowing you have the same sort of
19980s	Advantage given the threat of the third
19982s	party from KZ Unfortunately they don't
19985s	do that and as Tu is able to capitalize
19987s	and walks away yet again fourth round a
19990s	winner but before we get a look at those
19994s	final stats for the overall bi-weekly
19996s	here for trios we're gonna throw things
19998s	over to Jaeger for yet another interview
20000s	foreign
20005s	interview and now I'm standing here with
20008s	lyd from the team te and let him say
20011s	hello to our audience
20026s	[Music]
20028s	she is very happy today because they
20030s	really have good performance and because
20033s	in the game 6 we know at the end of the
20035s	game it seems like because these two
20038s	teams they still have the Monk and your
20041s	guys like in a positive part so I would
20043s	like to know how's your strategy at that
20045s	time is
20061s	[Music]
20062s	foreign
20078s	[Music]
20084s	because they both of their teams they
20087s	have the Mark if they don't use their
20089s	ultimate so we will be very dangerous
20092s	and really in a positive part so what
20095s	our strategy is let them use their
20098s	ultimate and after that we just escape
20100s	and try to wait for our ultimate and
20103s	then we can just fight back okay let's
20105s	move on to the next part answer for
20108s	Treasure
20116s	okay so you guys will see a question on
20120s	the screen and if you know the answer
20122s	just type them in the chat box after our
20125s	player coming three two one we will take
20127s	a screenshot and the lucky guy will be
20129s	whispered okay so let's see today's
20132s	question is which team won the last
20135s	ticket to the first B weekly final
20138s	nationality is
20170s	foreign
20196s	three two one screenshot okay let's find
20200s	out the correct answer now
20204s	um
20222s	so the correct answer is a and pay
20226s	attention to your mailbox if you are the
20228s	lucky guy you will be whispered okay so
20231s	we are going to have the B weekly final
20234s	and here I would like to know for the
20236s	team te it seems like your your guys are
20239s	already very aggressive and how many
20242s	teams you still think is have very
20245s	dangerous or they are the big rivers to
20248s	you guys
20256s	foreign
20276s	I think these teams are really strong
20279s	and aggressive and I'm really worried
20282s	about these teams okay
20289s	okay
20291s	thank you for today's interview and we
20294s	will be back to our casters
20297s	that was the lovely Jaeger interviewing
20300s	for what the fourth time
20303s	Rune a team that definitely has a
20306s	stamped their dominance on the league
20308s	moving forward given that this is
20310s	literally week one and we've already had
20312s	two record breaks the amount of points
20314s	picked up in one day and the amount of
20316s	MVPs picked up in one day so we have to
20318s	just give it to the team what an
20320s	absolute statement to start the
20322s	tournament off with yeah you know this
20324s	is huge for team te coming in making an
20327s	absolute statement like you said just
20329s	being completely dominant and you know
20331s	it it's really unfortunate uh for the
20334s	likes of Jay team who had a fairly
20336s	decent day one came in today and looked
20338s	to be kind of going Toe to Toe with Team
20341s	te after the first two games they
20343s	finished very close and then just kind
20345s	of struggled to find their footing the
20346s	rest of the day and seemed to be kind of
20349s	the number for many many of these teams
20351s	because te walks away with four of the
20354s	six MVPs for the day and you know teams
20358s	like team wolves continuing to show uh
20360s	the the same weaknesses that they showed
20363s	all of last season and during worlds uh
20366s	KZ finally able to find their footing uh
20368s	in the last game here and uh make some
20371s	progress for themselves hopefully we can
20373s	see that same KZ moving forward
20375s	throughout the bi-weeklies and not just
20378s	another you know rough performance
20380s	throughout the week for them followed up
20381s	by one good game but an another team I
20384s	really want to talk about is team AOW
20386s	and I think they have potential to come
20389s	back this season in Trias you know AOW
20392s	has not only Mike coming back in solos
20394s	which is going to help them uh with just
20397s	in general the morale of the team right
20399s	it's always good to have a teammate come
20401s	back in who's not been there who also
20403s	excels very well uh in solos as well but
20407s	AOW played very very consistently
20410s	throughout this particular bi-weekly
20412s	split and consistency has been something
20414s	that they've struggled with uh every
20417s	single season they would have big
20418s	explosive games followed by big fat
20420s	zeros and those games kind of balancing
20423s	them out in the Middle where they just
20424s	weren't able to have that sort of
20426s	dominancy that they wanted to but if
20430s	they're able to find consistency here
20432s	today in the first bi-weekly and then
20434s	follow that consistency up slowly by
20437s	finding some pop-off games in their
20439s	consistent games they're gonna be a team
20441s	that finds themselves much much more
20443s	often at the top of the leaderboard and
20445s	it's something I would love to see out
20447s	of Team AOW KZ here today 57.5 points
20451s	much better day in day two than they had
20454s	day one because of that final game they
20456s	were able to lock up your alliance
20458s	struggling today to find their same sort
20461s	of footing that they found in day number
20463s	one only a 41.3 point a day ewg kind of
20467s	staying on that consistency route as
20469s	well with AOW able to secure another 60
20472s	point day but it's team te here with a
20475s	130.9 points today breaking a total of
20479s	200 points this is what we talked about
20480s	where there being less teams here 200
20482s	points going to kind of be that new
20485s	plateau
20487s	for teams to come in and absolutely be
20490s	dominant and even though xcg
20492s	beats them out on their first day
20494s	because of how big and explosive today
20497s	was for team te it's gonna be very hard
20499s	for anyone in the league to kind of
20501s	Follow that up and here are your
20503s	qualified teams for the first
20504s	bi-weekly split here in the spring split
20507s	it's gonna be
20508s	t-e-x-e-g-k-l-gdg JJ h o u g e w g jlwbg
20513s	aowj team GS and Alliance surrounding
20516s	out the final space here in our first
20519s	bi-weekly I don't know about you Moxie
20521s	but I'm really excited to see how these
20524s	teams do unfortunately I don't get to
20526s	cast the uh bye weekly final for trios I
20529s	will be back tomorrow though to Castle
20530s	bi-weekly finals for solos and there's a
20533s	lot to be said in the Solo Space when we
20535s	get there tomorrow so I'm excited for
20537s	that you'll have to catch me up and let
20538s	me know how those trios though go though
20540s	for sure I wish I was going to be there
20543s	to cast that with you Moxie I just I'm
20545s	so excited to see like how the
20547s	performance from te today is going to
20549s	affect the teams and that sort of full
20551s	process of what compositions they want
20553s	to be running in those bi-weekly finals
20555s	I'm really sad that Casey just didn't
20558s	make it 15th with 14 teams graduating in
20562s	is unfortunately meaning that we're not
20563s	going to get to see them until next week
20565s	hopefully this gives them a little bit
20567s	of time to look over the VOD see what
20569s	won't have the confidence moving forward
20571s	to be able to keep that Synergy up and
20573s	running as we can have a look at the
20575s	groups still going to be in the exact
20578s	same positions group a x c g o u g a o w
20581s	g d Alliance KZ and Ventus looking like
20583s	one of those groups to definitely watch
20585s	out for with AOW and Casey showing
20587s	significant improvements in xcg
20589s	continuing to be a consistent Powerhouse
20592s	Group B however is uh it's probably the
20595s	grip of death
20596s	t-e-g-gg J team jloc bioder and wolves
20600s	these are all teams that can have
20602s	absolute pop-off moments they can all
20604s	hit 20 bombs on the absolute best of
20606s	days and I cannot wait to see what
20608s	happens when we get a day where all of
20610s	these teams are on that top performance
20612s	because that is definitely going to be a
20614s	cheers game to watch out for
20617s	yeah taking a look here for the rest of
20619s	March you can see where we are now we
20621s	are coming in to that bi-weekly final
20623s	right tomorrow will be the solos and our
20627s	first bi-weekly final so make sure you
20630s	guys tune in you're not going to want to
20632s	miss the explosive conclusion of our
20635s	first bi-weekly taking a look here of
20637s	course at the maps for the bi-weekly
20639s	final it's going to be the same order
20641s	and uh same it day and night cycles
20644s	locking in for the maps here for the
20647s	bi-weekly final which is going to be
20648s	very very interesting we saw a lot of
20650s	teams opting today to take Takeda even
20653s	on maps or uh Day times on maps that
20657s	don't really suit that Takeda comp but
20660s	because of how poor the Viper comp has
20663s	fallen into favor much more happy to
20666s	just go ahead and take that decay to
20667s	comp and make something happen given the
20670s	space that Viper doesn't create really
20672s	anymore and it's not so much on viper
20674s	right Viper is still very capable of
20676s	countering these Transformers top but
20679s	Yoda Heime really being the hero in this
20681s	comp that's falling off and not able to
20684s	follow up those Viper trans or those
20686s	Viper stuns as well as before because
20689s	Yodo able to slash through one
20691s	Transformer not able to slash through
20693s	two Transformers during the duration of
20696s	the stun of course the pillar also
20698s	making it very hard for Viper to stun
20700s	both Transformers because all they have
20702s	to do is wait for the Viper old to come
20704s	out while they're standing on pillar and
20706s	pop into Mac during the stun they're not
20708s	stunned and it's all a different ball
20711s	game at that point because that Mech
20712s	able to cover the monk even as big as he
20716s	is those rain shots not able to come
20717s	through and really secure those kills
20719s	the way people are used to being able to
20722s	because Feria can just go ahead and
20724s	armor up and sit there and Pummel you
20725s	back in return so Viper trying to find
20729s	that counter comp to the Transformers
20732s	like we used to see but just not there
20734s	anymore for that particular comp so
20737s	interesting to see that teams are more
20740s	than happy to cater into less favorable
20742s	Maps just so they don't have to play the
20744s	Viper comp anymore yeah teams even
20746s	trying as well to run that Takeda as a
20748s	sort of pseudo Yoda like we saw in a
20750s	couple of the gate fights the problem is
20752s	if you're trying to run together against
20754s	the monk again there is always going to
20756s	have that advantage of uh distance the
20758s	cicada yes it covers a much bigger uh
20762s	distance than you expect but at the same
20764s	time it's nowhere near the distance that
20766s	area can literally just sit on one side
20768s	of the Gate of gang and still be able to
20770s	Pummel onto a monk on the other as well
20773s	as having that verticality to be able to
20775s	continue to pressure and even be able to
20777s	get around some of the bases of those
20778s	pillars where kurumi's like to just be
20780s	able to hold on to so that they can keep
20782s	that monk tethered and healed up for the
20784s	entirety of the fight
20785s	yeah absolutely and again you know it's
20788s	really unfortunate too because the
20789s	pillars blocking the monk hands not
20791s	really able to block the splash damage
20794s	coming in from fairies Cannon either but
20797s	ladies and gentlemen unfortunately
20799s	something that we can't block either is
20801s	the end of the show that's gonna be it
20803s	from us here at the nbpo but like I said
20805s	you do not want to miss the explosive
20808s	conclusion here to the first bi-weekly
20810s	because he looking to make a name and a
20813s	lot of these other teams gonna be coming
20814s	in hungry to Dethrone te after yet
20817s	another dominating performance that's
20819s	gonna be it from us here today so
20822s	hopefully we'll see you guys for either
20823s	the solo or Trails finals if not both
20825s	it's been great being here we're gonna
20827s	catch you guys next time

21031s	bring me down
21035s	push me to the edge but it won't work
21040s	oh no
21042s	[Music]
21044s	they can try to bring it down
21052s	[Music]
21054s	but rise a thousand times
