2057s older seasonal Treasures right so if you

2091s and all you have to do is chill right
2093s here watch the Astro cup hang out with
2094s me and Moxy today as we bring you the
2097s these six games of trios it's going to
2099s be a lot of fun I don't know why you'd
2101s want to be anywhere else Moxy yeah I
2103s mean I love those epic weapon TR that's
2105s right I love the legendaries don't get
2107s me wrong and the extremes as well all of
2108s the added effects you have on successful
2111s kills or using some of those Soul jads
2113s looking absolutely gorgeous I think the
2115s fan I don't know I love the dagger from
2117s last season the fan really has like done
2119s itself but getting to use those epic
2121s weapon choices is for me about being
2125s able to order all of the color on my
2127s Cosmetics right I'm sure I'm not the
2129s only one who actually picks weapon skins
2132s to color Style with what I'm using for
2135s my outfit choices and because a lot of
2138s those epic weapon Skins are the same
2139s skin but in different shades of
2141s different colors it can actually be
2142s really nice to be able to just drop down
2145s teer go for some of those epics and make
2146s sure that some of your outfits do manage
2148s to coordinate but talking about
2150s coordination it's trios Rune and that
2153s means there is going to be a lot of
2154s coordination a lot of synergy between
2156s all of these players we've got some
2158s experience in the professional scen some
2160s coming through from the ranked
2162s background I can't wait to see how
2164s they're all going to interact with each
2166s other because obviously the top six
2167s teams that walked away on week one's
2169s qualifiers are now going to be thrown in
2171s the same lobby as everyone who walked
2173s away with week 2's qualifiers we've got
2176s the new patch we've got the fair changes
2178s we've got the karumi Buffs we've got
2180s Hardy coming into the mix a couple of
2182s weapons got adjusted but either way it's
2184s going to be some explosive nraa action
2187s and we saw in chat a little bit earlier
2189s hard has been what two days so not a lot
2191s of people still sort of realizing how to
2193s play him fully to his potential maybe
2196s we're not going to see teams lock him in
2198s for That explicit reason but we could
2200s see teams decide to lock him in because
2202s people don't understand how to play
2204s against him GSD cuz it does feel like
2207s his biggest character is something like
2208s the AOS V3 with the trap cage making
2210s sure that he's not able to just dip out
2213s of the ultimate since it does have a
2215s verticality hit boox but to which is
2217s also an option you do just have to be
2219s careful because unlike the Aus ultimate
2222s toal ultimate doesn't have that cap
2225s doesn't have that verticality trap if
2227s you're sitting right in the eye of the
2228s storm you can just pop your ultimate and
2231s boost right on out of it the one thing
2233s you do have to watch out for though
2234s they're the Wisps you can't get light
2237s DED you can't get grapple canceled in
2238s that Hardy ultimate you can get ult
2241s whisp and let me tell you if anyone has
2244s something like a repeating crossbow with
2246s Venom tip which fell out of the meta for
2248s a little bit but I feel like with hardi
2250s coming back in repeating crossbow is
2252s going to make her return as well oh I
2254s mean absolutely and you know speaking of
2256s things falling out of the meta one of
2257s the few things we have to talk about
2259s well we'll take take a look at our uh
2261s point system here you guys are used to
2263s this by now right of course you get one
2265s point for every single elimination your
2266s team picks up you get some ranking
2268s points based on your placement and then
2270s you get a multiplier based on that
2272s placement that adds to those total kill
2274s points so that 1.4 uh coefficient there
2277s will multiply times your kill points at
2280s the very top uh so if you're walking
2282s away with 10 kill points you're going to
2283s get a total of 15 or sorry 14 points for
2286s that 1.4 plus your Four Points would be
2288s a game score of 18 points you guys if
2291s you've been here before you know exactly
2293s how this works but talking about things
2295s that have fallen out of uh The Meta
2298s Transformers comp is heavily falling out
2301s of the meta and this patch only going to
2303s shove it into being even worse right
2306s it's EXT extremely hard for the monk to
2308s grab hottie the way he moves he also is
2311s able to stagger the monk with those big
2313s slashes that come through to stagger the
2315s monk he was able to stagger the Yan but
2317s he actually stagger a tan high but he
2320s does do a lot of damage coming in off of
2322s this golden focuses onto the tan high
2324s and it's extremely difficult for Tian
2326s High to do anything about that which
2328s just makes it even easier for them to be
2331s focused down and then you also of course
2333s have the changes coming in for Faria as
2335s well which are going to make things even
2337s more difficult for the monk as she is
2340s able to use that Cannon Mode and come in
2342s and put the Stagger onto him and do a
2344s lot of damage as well and we already
2346s have seen that long classic Transformer
2349s com on the way out the door so these
2352s changes only going to make that even
2355s more apparent moving forward Moxy it's
2357s really such a shame as well cuz karumi
2360s just got that massive buff where all of
2362s her TS now do apply that heal so you do
2365s want to be taking that F3 so you can get
2367s that 90% damage reduction and you can
2369s match it with the damage reduction of of
2372s the ultimate so you can get a 9C total
2375s damage reduction which would have been
2377s really good for the monk but like you
2379s said run that kill capability in that
2381s ultimate it's not the problem of keeping
2382s the monk up it's much more a case that
2384s the monk isn't finding the value even if
2385s he is able to survive as we're going to
2388s be heading into our first game to see
2390s which of these teams are going to be
2391s able to survive and walk away on top
2393s even tit ready going to be seeing a lot
2395s of action as team number five taking on
2397s team number seven for control of top
2399s side of temple and all of the loot there
2402s in Yodo F coming through we're actually
2404s going to see that Transformer team that
2405s we were thinking maybe we're going to
2407s see these players start to skirt away
2408s from taking a lot of damage that Bell
2411s already having been used cat's not going
2413s to be able to stay alive any longer lemu
2415s coming in with the w and Blades just
2417s making sure that the shield refresh and
2419s replenish is there as the scar should
2421s start to come on through coming in with
2422s the charg left click on that staff just
2425s looking to try and find this last player
2428s on player number five going to be
2431s able to scare us but get stopped right
2433s in the middle of that Yodo blade before
2435s he's able to fully find a disengagement
2437s and that is going to be the Transformers
2439s team taken down before those ultimates
2441s can come back online and replenish their
2442s health was moving over to C whing very
2445s aggressive drops coming through from all
2447s of these players so they can pick up
2448s that momentum early on another Attack on
2451s Titan team going to be finding a lot of
2453s value Yia throwing out the charged on
2455s that fan as quick as it does cuz it
2457s hasn't been adjusted going to go
2459s straight into that tumult ultimate has
2461s to be careful if that water wheel is
2463s still in play that no one is able to
2464s disengage and pop it because all of
2466s these players R are fighting right in
2468s the canyon and there it is the boxes are
2470s broken the water wheel is open no one is
2472s in the pp no someone does go down no no
2476s no that was uh Yia grabbing the kill
2478s right there onto team number 10 but
2480s water wheel coming into play now here
2482s team 10 just trying to lock down
2485s multiple of these other players
2487s actually going to get caught out after
2488s the water wheel going down APF coming
2490s here on team 12 looking to make
2492s something happen we will see the Viper
2494s V2 coming in looking to get a short stun
2497s out onto team sin there they are going
2499s to pick up yet another elimination as
2501s team 12 moves to three eliminations here
2504s right off the rip in celester but the
2505s fights aren't going to stop here yet as
2507s Team Six looking to come in for the
2509s third party Casper coming with that
2511s great sword going to get a bit of damage
2513s off onto APF but APF going to go
2514s Airborne using that F on the the wuen to
2517s find some value will get caught out here
2519s by the charge left click and APF feeling
2521s the pressure is going to use that
2523s ultimate here on wuen to get out and get
2525s missu back into the game as team 12
2527s looks to back away there at the top
2529s temple in even tide and Team Six is
2532s going to have no chance to hunt them
2533s down as team 10 coming back in after
2535s finding the full reset looking for the
2537s third party and this time they're going
2539s to be the team on the receiving end of
2541s the Viper ultimate it looks like it is
2542s going to be the V1 a long stun duration
2545s here we're going to see Casper trying to
2547s be saved out here by Kishi that ult not
2549s going to quite do it though Kishi now
2551s going to be the player caught out who
2552s will go down to team 10 and team 12
2555s after finding the reset turning back in
2557s from even TI Temple top side coming in
2560s looking to catch onto these players oh
2563s my goodness Team Six will lose one of
2565s their players as team 10 and team 12 now
2568s going head-to-head missu is going to go
2570s down as another short duration stun
2572s comes out here from Team 12 but it's not
2574s going to be enough to buy them away from
2577s Team 10 who come in looking to take them
2579s down team 10 will find another
2581s elimination unfortunately it's not going
2583s to be enough team 12 will be able to
2586s break away from this fight Moxy oh my
2588s goodness so many early fights right off
2591s of the rip we' suspected that it was
2593s going to be an incredibly aggressive
2594s Lobby especially in match number one
2596s especially when it's a nighttime map
2598s because those ultimates are going to be
2599s coming online a lot more often with the
2601s increased fireflies but it really does
2603s feel like a lot of these players are
2604s taking advantage of having the attack
2606s and Titan and going for the kills early
2609s on as possible to be able to come in
2611s before things like Thea has that
2613s ultimate to look for the Wombo Combo
2615s with some of these Mechanicals as Kishi
2617s trying to track down one of these
2619s players on team number 10 soer making it
2621s a little bit harder to be able to
2623s properly find the full jump as it is
2626s going to be the ankle break HEI trying
2628s to intercept and immediately after they
2631s just roll right past him this is always
2635s An Occurrence in last with the amount of
2638s buildings and ease that you can find
2640s with those scale rushes as Ki now is
2642s looking to pins it in with one of his
2644s other teammates if they can try and
2646s intercept them on the second story of
2648s that floor they might be able to find a
2650s lock down especially if K is looking to
2651s try and come in with the bouncer P SW
2654s equipped for the scash proper amount of
2656s damage to chunk through if they were
2658s able to find that connection but still
2660s with this dagger this one player on team
2662s 10 is absolutely uncatchable and they've
2664s actually spent so long trying to lock
2665s them down that another team has now
2668s rolled on up to the party Kishi not able
2670s to find any opportunity to look for the
2672s scare Rush has to actually take a little
2673s bit of heal now he's going to try and
2675s come through with the charged r on that
2677s pul ult ultimate going to be laid down
2679s to be able to negate the Viper ultimate
2682s that came through as Kishi is going to
2684s be taking a lot of damage the armor
2686s fully broken into the charge vertical on
2688s the long sword he goes using the
2691s momentum of that pul and also the zip
2692s ultimate to be healed a little bit more
2694s up to full they'll be able to find one
2696s kill onto mitti they've also been able
2697s to find elking now it's just that one
2700s player on team 10 that they were looking
2702s to lock down who's run outside of
2704s celestra and breaking out into the open
2706s losing the ability to be able to break
2709s the ankles meanwhile if you actually
2711s look at the mini map one of the players
2713s from Team 12 has been able to use this
2715s opportunity Rune to double back and find
2717s a Revive on their teammates within the
2720s building oh speaking of the devil though
2722s Casper coming back in to check the body
2724s here is in a 1v2 situ ation but the rest
2727s of Team Six turning back around team 12
2729s able to find the resurrection but in a
2731s vicarious situation as the rest of Team
2733s six turns back here into celestra to
2736s give Chase APF miss you and the link
2738s Quinn just in a bad situation given that
2741s Team Six here on the full reset APF able
2744s to catch the long sword slash onto
2745s Casper finds a second one but will get
2747s parried in the back by Kishi Casper
2749s going to back away looking for a reset
2751s will use that ultimate to support the
2753s team as Kishi unfortunately goes down
2755s before the ultimate finds any value
2757s Casper coming in that ult will pop to
2760s save him there as team 12 starts to turn
2762s this entire fight on its head here
2765s they've lost missu as well but now we're
2767s going to see the ultimate coming in here
2769s Casper trying to break away line of
2771s sight here is able to get away and then
2773s the wo Chanel finally comes online for
2775s team 12 so they're going to get away
2777s with their player and look for the reset
2780s goala they going to use the Bell to get
2781s the information onto team 12 but knows
2784s that Team Six cannot push back onto this
2786s Ki finds their Resurrection here going
2789s to use that early game Resurrection to
2791s stay in the game and team 12 and Team
2793s Six will both live to fight another day
2795s turning over to team seven here as they
2797s finish cleaning up another team they're
2800s going to go to four eliminations just
2803s outside of Shadow Jade mines we're
2806s seeing so many attack and Titan teams I
2807s wonder if we're actually going to see an
2809s attack and Titan composition try and
2811s take these R of Yang fights cuz we saw
2813s one Transformer team two teada sand
2816s siphons everyone else has been running
2818s this Attack on Titan incredibly early on
2822s as it's seeing things like the Viper the
2824s F2 for that silence over the F3 so if
2826s they do run into that zip it's going to
2828s be a little bit harder to be able to try
2830s and disable a lot of that healing
2832s sustainability that she is capable of
2835s however having that silence does mean if
2836s you can attach it to something like the
2838s teada you don't have to worry about the
2840s shelves peeling a lot of the aggression
2842s when you do have a player lock down
2844s because of things like the Yodo but
2846s potentially going to see Team seven go
2848s head to head with the team just left of
2850s them team eight but it looks like team
2852s seven not really wanting to take any
2854s fight because we do see those realm of
2856s yangs starting to spawn on up and these
2859s players want to hold on to their
2860s ultimates to be able to carry them
2862s through into realm of Yang team number
2864s five going to be putting themselves in
2866s up against team number eight tryhards
2868s team running that sand siphon
2871s composition all of their alss going to
2873s be up and available as everyone goes
2876s aerial with the grapples not wanting to
2878s get locked down and forced into using
2879s these ultimates early Transformer going
2881s to be thr in that TN High transformation
2883s it's immediately going to be blocked out
2885s however by the tul ultimate wind spout
2887s coming through from the fan just trying
2889s to CH through as much damage as possible
2890s karumi coming under Fire having to
2892s actually use the healing Circle
2894s incredibly early on but cat's able to
2895s find to scoop on to one on to two and
2897s finds the double grab try hard goes down
2900s immediately before the zip can heal them
2902s and as a result the Transformers team
2904s have been able to deny the damage First
2906s Carry from the S siphon team on the side
2908s we see the zip just throwing in the Wind
2910s spites on the fan trying to pressure
2912s this karumi but she has the peel coming
2914s through from hushan to be able to look
2916s for these staggers throwing out the
2917s charge clicks on that find that charge
2919s up so incredibly quickly and no one's
2921s able to flash the red par because then
2922s they're going to be too static and
2925s staggered out by the usan what a double
2927s grab to open up the fight from
2929s cat very very unfortunate fight here
2932s from the side of try hard's team team
2935s eight there simp simply didn't have the
2937s ultimates available to really risk
2939s coming into the realm of Yang here they
2941s get double grabbed out they don't have
2943s the zip ult to buy them the safety to
2945s come away from it so they end up losing
2947s try hard immediately they don't have the
2950s Tami ult available for them either so
2951s they can't use it to block some of those
2953s grabs from the Monk and force them to
2955s reposition they do Target lock onto the
2959s karumi and it is the proper Target
2961s acquisition for that composition
2963s unfortunately because they don't have
2965s the ultimates they can't really shove
2967s karumi away from her own ultimate even
2969s though they force her to pop it early
2972s and because of that they walk into a
2974s situation where the monk just is has
2976s free grabs available and they end up
2978s getting themselves uh sent back out here
2980s with Yang depletion Moxy it's a bad
2983s situation to be in I'm not quite sure
2985s why the team opted to take the fight
2987s without most of their ultimates
2989s available they did have the ult because
2992s they used it the the second that t High
2994s burned the the AL
2996s did they have the temol I didn't see the
2998s temol it came out incredibly quickly
3001s like literally it was sort of domino
3002s effect the Monk aled and then the tul
3004s aled immediately afterwards so I mean in
3007s that situation they had no business just
3009s standing next to the Monk and letting
3011s him pick them up then but still a
3013s terrible situation especially given that
3014s they didn't have the zipple right
3016s because typically what you see happens
3018s is the zipple is what's going to buy you
3020s away from a bad double grab situation
3022s like that cuz it's not like Transformers
3024s going head-to-head with Transformers
3026s where you can utilize your ultimates to
3028s keep them from having two Targets to
3029s grab onto so you potentially walk into
3032s that situation no matter what you do
3034s depending on how good the tan High
3036s player is on the other team but that
3038s zipple has that ability to just keep you
3041s alive no matter if the slam would kill
3043s you or not unfortunate for them they
3045s didn't have it available and they just
3046s lose try hard immediately and that was
3049s the piece of the puzzle they really
3050s needed to come out on top of that fight
3051s because you can utilize that teada
3054s ultimate to shove the Transformer away
3056s and keep your team alive just a very
3059s unfortunate turn of events coming in
3061s there for team at number eight as we
3062s turn back here and take a look The Zone
3065s going to be pushing All the Way South
3067s Side here uh Casper's team team six on
3069s the bot side here already positioned
3071s extremely well for the Zone down in
3073s Shadow Jade many of these other teams
3075s starting to push towards celestra and
3077s this is pretty typical of what we see as
3078s long as celestra is in the zone we're
3081s going to have a lot of these teams
3082s looking to fight there trying to utilize
3084s all of that to to their advantage so
3087s that they can break away from Bad
3088s situations when things escalate see
3092s though is the fact that Cel are action
3094s incredibly early on so all of the loot
3096s is probably being pick clean which means
3098s resource management is going to be
3100s absolutely key as well as controlling
3101s places like Artis and SC as the attack
3104s and Titan team are coming in trying to
3106s for up against the sand siphon F2
3108s actually connect onto new news big so
3111s having to actually back on off as the
3113s team sees another team roll off on the
3116s distance and decides to use that wit and
3117s teleport because they haven't been able
3119s to find an immediate kill and they don't
3121s want to get stuck right in the middle
3122s and get third parted as now team three
3125s are having to use that teor ultimate
3127s three shvs left available for big he's
3129s going to get hit by that Viper ultimate
3132s charging up that SP looking to try and
3133s use a little bit of that hyper Focus
3135s armor coming through but takes so much
3137s damage from all of these players R and
3139s one of those shs being used to be able
3140s to break his way out and find that
3142s disengagement as two teams come in
3144s trying to lock down the kills Team Four
3146s have been able to get one of the players
3148s on team 10 yanle does go down and we
3151s know that the wuen does not have that
3153s teleport considering it was used in the
3156s fight previous so now these players are
3158s going to start to try and hunt down some
3160s of those bodies or potentially just sit
3162s on the shop and see whether or not
3163s anyone tries to backtrack on to that
3166s body second drum of Yang also going to
3168s be spawning on up and ruin those Yang
3170s depletions if players haven't been able
3171s to find Soul blims they're going to be
3173s in a little bit of a tough spot because
3175s one thing I've noticed even though there
3176s was an incredibly aggressive early start
3178s and a lot of those players did get
3180s burned out of those reu charms early on
3183s no one left Soul blims on the body no
3185s one has an insurance card so everyone is
3187s having to play hyper aggressive and what
3189s would normally be the LOL phase where
3191s everyone wants to just posture up and
3194s play for control of the second R of Yang
3196s yeah absolutely Moxy the it's very very
3199s interesting cuz like you said uh
3201s celestra especially was a huge just
3204s breakout fight ear on and it forces you
3208s not to leave those Souls behind
3210s especially because it's inside celestra
3213s this is always going to be a highly
3214s populated area so any blooms you leave
3216s behind in that area are going to be gone
3219s you can en count on them as an insurance
3222s policy so it's better just to pick them
3223s up especially during how crazy those
3226s fights were early on into to the game
3228s just to get that extra rage so you can
3230s continue to keep those fights going and
3232s here we are the second realm of yangs
3234s coming forward here looks like team five
3236s yet again trying to opt to head into the
3239s realm of Yang and it's going to be Team
3240s Four who manages to get in this time
3242s versus team8 yet again looks like they
3244s were able to get out and find some soul
3246s blooms for themselves and are looking to
3249s take another opportunity inside the real
3250s of yang this time importantly all three
3252s ultimates available for the team but it
3254s is going to be the mirror match sand
3256s siphon into sand siphon sin here versus
3259s team number eight Kei going to get
3260s caught out there on that P sword taking
3262s quite a bit of their Shield there we see
3264s the whis being in vested and hermine
3266s here doing a really good job keeping
3268s that Target selection onto The Zing he
3271s knows he wants to get them eliminated as
3272s soon as possible going to go ahead and
3273s invest the ultimate here unfortunately
3276s gets turned back around on the other
3277s ultimate numza here trading te for Te
3281s here but numza taking so much damage
3283s there he is he's very quickly eliminated
3285s team eight here finding a lot of control
3288s inside this fight as it's now a 4v2 ski
3290s though gets pushed to the side going to
3292s be forced to go ahead and Brock the
3293s ultimate charge there just to stay up
3295s alive unfortunately for them they were
3298s not able to keep that Target acquisition
3300s up on Ste long enough and now with the
3302s old burning the full reset comes through
3304s and Team 8 just completely blitzes
3307s through the remaining players of sin
3309s here Team 8 finds their Redemption
3312s inside the realm of Yang Cavalry Bloom
3314s is such a brutal Jade when you're going
3317s up against a player who's being stagger
3319s locked and that is unfortunately the
3320s reality of the other sand siphon team
3323s when they lose that TOA try hard is able
3325s to get get so much more aggressive with
3327s Cavalry balloon because even though if
3328s you are expecting it it's incredibly
3330s easy to be able to Parry he still has a
3332s shove left so he throws it out does get
3334s parried but uses the Shelf to be able to
3336s recover the dual blades and then
3338s continues to just chunk through Players
3340s health bars and armors with Cavalry
3342s Bloom coming in and cloves lining
3344s whoever is locked down in that light
3346s stagger by the rest of his players it
3348s looks like new new or Crazy Cow were the
3351s other team that were able to walk away
3353s with a realm of Yang successful and now
3355s with Mystic might enabled a lot of these
3357s teams are going to be starting to Branch
3359s out in terms of distance and look to
3361s jump in on the third party because not
3363s only do you have that knowledge of your
3365s surroundings but you also get the damage
3367s reduction that comes alongside it and
3369s when we looked at where try hard's team
3370s were positioned over towards Shadow Jade
3372s mines it did look like a majority of the
3374s teams were still clustered around that
3378s specific area so I am not going to be
3380s surprised if we see that kill feed
3381s continuing to light on up and asking you
3384s shall receive there it is team eight
3387s looking to potentially find a flank onto
3389s team number six try hard with that
3391s Mystic might doesn't actually seem to be
3393s positioning over there instead it feels
3395s like they're actually going towards the
3397s outer edges of this Zone and trying to
3399s use that Mystic might to gather
3401s information on where some of these
3403s players are that are uh losing some of
3406s their teammates and are incredibly
3408s behind in terms of that loot scaling and
3411s it looks like team 10 is in one such
3414s position they're playing toward W the
3415s very outer edge of the Zone hoping not
3418s to be caught out in spotted so they can
3419s play for survivability and take any
3422s kills that they found early on in the
3424s game too late game for that Kure
3426s multiplier even if they don't have the
3427s kill potential if you're still able to
3429s get into the top five that kill
3430s multiplyer is going to me that you're
3432s still able to pick up a hefty amount of
3434s points they do have to be careful
3436s however as team eight are wise to those
3439s strategy it's heading over to graveyard
3441s it's another strategy that we see
3443s Transformer with cat in that ultimate
3445s looking to try and find these grabs
3447s everyone swapping over to the range
3448s projectiles and that's Venom tip that
3451s you can see going off on that Monk's
3453s hell far and Cat goes down melted from
3456s existence immediately the karumi fere
3459s kicking in and immediately actually
3461s snapping to allow that 90% damage
3463s reduction for the Transformer team to be
3465s able to survive the second that the monk
3467s player has gone down they lose that
3469s large body to be able to absorb all of
3470s the range projectiles but the fight's
3473s gone on so long run here comes another
3475s one of our teams with that Mystic might
3476s that have rolled up looking for kills
3479s yeah unfortunately here for sin solo
3481s going to be completely C out by team
3483s number three as they easily take the
3485s free Spoils of War here team three
3487s though now a little on the back foot as
3489s they have to approach to get into Zone
3491s and team seven is waiting in the wings
3493s to try to play gatekeeper here ardal in
3496s here going to immediately pop the Yoda
3498s ultimate trying to do exactly that into
3500s the temo on the side though as the Fight
3503s Continues to break out in the zone team
3505s three NE fly here extremely low big
3508s trying to come in and lock them up the
3509s Wu Chanel going to come in and buy a lot
3511s of value for team s here as team three
3514s continues to try to push to the zone and
3516s have to run back into team seven yet
3519s again and force through a second time
3521s this time team seven going to be
3522s investing their Tammi ultimate to get
3524s the lock down and there we go we are
3525s going to see fly finally go down here
3528s for this team and unfortunately that is
3531s the Healer here for team number three
3533s team Neu and there they're going to have
3535s to leave fly behind as yet another team
3538s comes in for that third party and puts
3540s everybody in a terrible position back
3542s over to team eight a Dodo and tryhards
3544s team here on the receiving end of team
3546s number one a lot of damage coming
3548s through but ski going to use that
3550s ultimate to buy them a lot of space they
3552s have been able to pick up one
3553s elimination onto sin yogurt and it turns
3556s into a 3v2 thanks to the healing coming
3559s in from ski ad going to go Airborne here
3561s ad Doo with a huge whsp onto them and
3565s unfortunately that's their healer and
3566s like dominoes once one Falls the rest of
3569s them tumble and team eight comes out on
3571s top if I'm not mistaken that's the
3573s extreme cosmetic for the long sword that
3575s ad Doo's got that is indeed the new long
3578s sword I was like hold on a minute that
3580s Phoenix blast is looking a little bit
3582s extra sparkly a little bit extra pink
3584s and a little bit extra deadly when it's
3586s in the hands of a sand siphon
3587s composition as we've talked about there
3589s are some soul jads that work perfectly
3592s to be able to play off of this spasing
3593s that it's Mulch and and a teada provide
3596s for a team and 100% Phoenix blast is one
3601s of those Jades normally a little bit
3603s easy to be able to Parry but obviously
3604s if you get staggered out either by a
3606s Twist and you're cing that Cc or a t
3608s shove you're not really in a position to
3610s be able to find the Parry as we can see
3612s what happens when you do throw a blue
3614s onto a player who's not CC they will be
3616s able to find that parry and find the
3618s revive onto their karumi out of the Zone
3621s they're going to dip and put themselves
3623s into a position of potentially being
3624s able to heal up and come through with
3627s that potential damage burst as the Zone
3630s collapses and you can use things like
3632s the monk Health replenish in the
3633s ultimate activation to be able to out
3636s sustain everybody else around you as
3638s this which was an incredibly aggressive
3641s Lobby no surprises is now only seeing 13
3645s players left alive my concern for this
3649s transformation team is the fact that
3651s actually had to use his ultimate
3655s that is
3657s unfortunate uh the big thing here for
3660s this particular team is they have not
3661s scaled very well uh still on blues and
3664s whites and they do not have a lot of
3667s eliminations crucially this is a team
3669s that's looking to pop off in these big
3672s end lobbies where there are a lot of
3673s teams to pick a lot of kills off
3676s unfortunately for them there are not a
3677s lot of players left alive so there's not
3680s a lot of kills in this Lobby for them to
3681s pick off in these sort of End Circle
3684s scenarios and that's going to be
3687s extrem right like we've seen s Attack on
3691s Titan I think that they only transform
3693s Transformers y available so they're not
3695s even going to be able to try and steal
3697s the kills like you may be lacking in
3699s loot but if you can go for that
3700s transformation and play off of the
3702s Damage Done by another Mony ultimate to
3704s look for the Reverb grabs when those
3706s players are already low a lot of the
3708s time you can s side step that scaling
3710s issue but because there's no other monk
3712s left they don't even have that Avenue of
3715s option it's going to come down to them
3716s having to pick up a Mor's blessing but
3718s run that's going to be easier said than
3720s done yeah no it's going to be extremely
3723s difficult given the number of sand
3725s siphons in this lobby as well and we've
3727s seen multiple times where they've popped
3729s that ultimate and they just absolutely
3731s get obliterated by something like a
3733s repeating crossbow and have to just use
3735s that time to try to regroup and buy one
3738s of their teammates back into the game
3740s and because of that they're extremely
3742s far behind and they don't really have a
3744s way to push onto one of these moris
3746s blessings and take it for themselves and
3748s here we go we're going to see them
3749s starting to push up here on the side of
3751s team number eight and team number eight
3753s in a great position to start to pressure
3755s onto team number five here so and
3758s his team trying to back away here from
3760s the range shots they want to pressure in
3763s onto that moris blessing that's
3764s potentially getting ready to spawn in
3766s but team number eight not going to let
3768s them hold that aggressive Position will
3770s force them away from the Moors blessing
3772s getting ready to come through and if
3774s they try to pressure onto team eight
3776s here they crucially have that temal
3778s where they can just drop it on the box
3780s and then team five would have to burn
3783s one of their crucial Transformers all to
3785s even attempt to contest it oh they're
3787s contesting though they're attempting
3788s mercus Havoc is coming through to try
3789s and buy themselves the zoning and
3792s teamate not going to let it go through
3794s currently the karumi umbrella actually
3796s being used to block the range
3797s projectiles coming through but try hard
3800s getting into position like you said with
3802s that tool the S composition is that such
3805s a huge Advantage they just have to be
3807s careful though because team number six
3809s are also in the area they've been drawn
3811s in by the conflict currently going down
3813s between Team 8 and team five and they're
3815s here to look for the third party so if
3817s that s Sion team actually uses that tul
3819s ultimate maybe they're going to be able
3821s to pick up the mors bling yes but then
3822s they don't have the tul ultimate to
3825s block any potential third party from
3827s coming through and it actually looks
3828s like seeing that additional pressure
3830s arriving team number five decid to give
3833s it on up oh no they're about to run into
3834s a team that are directly above them
3836s hanging from the beam no one checked it
3838s coming in the Merc is going to try
3840s and collapse in onto one player from
3843s Team 11 as it looks like team 11
3845s actually decided to give up the space
3847s for team five to be able to hold on to
3850s their life a little bit longer not
3852s wanting to give up their ultimates in
3854s case they get pressured when they're
3855s looking for that disengagement and
3857s reposition so I do believe that the team
3859s 11 is actually down to only a single
3861s player here so mushroom just trying to
3863s get away here and keep the game alive
3865s for their team because they have no
3868s other choice they need to make the
3869s number of kills that they have count for
3871s as much as possible and you're going to
3872s see here mushroom is going to redirect
3874s this team back in the direction of Team
3876s five to try to get the attention away
3877s from themselves they are just trying to
3879s hold on for dear life at the given
3881s moment new here able to get fly back
3884s into the game and crucially with so many
3887s eliminations under their belt Moxy as we
3890s are heading into the late game this team
3892s just needs to play for survivability at
3893s this point they don't have to
3896s force they have enough eliminations here
3900s where even a second or third place
3901s finish could easily buy them the MVP
3905s here for the game above many of these
3907s other teams and that's exactly what
3909s they're doing here they're just playing
3910s very passively backing away especially
3912s given that fly here forced to burn that
3914s ultimate for the team so that they're
3916s able to get a little bit of healing here
3917s they do not have that ultimate back off
3919s of cool down for a little while but the
3921s Zone getting very very small we have 60
3923s seconds into we collapse onto the final
3926s Zone zone six here and team eight just
3929s topside here butchering down on team
3931s number six here with these rain shots
3933s coming in from the pistol and Cannon
3934s just blowing away the members of Team
3937s Six cutting through that legendary armor
3939s that Kishi was able to get their hands
3941s on and Neu Neu going to capitalize on
3943s that as they pressure in ad Doo up top
3945s here with the Wisp gets a whsp out Kishi
3948s going to go down as Team Six looses two
3950s of their members and they are now down
3951s to a single member and Ne Neu continuing
3954s to keep the pressure up and Casper will
3956s go down that will be it for Team Six
3959s unless ad Doo is still no adodo looks
3961s like they are still alive out there as
3963s Neu continues to keep the pressure up
3965s team five trying to capitalize now that
3968s Neu has been completely shredded through
3970s here by the members of team number eight
3972s they're able to come in they pick fly up
3974s yet again the target acquisition
3976s extremely well ad Doo trying to get away
3980s now from that Razer Swift coming on
3982s through looking to capitalize on the
3984s Phoenix blast doesn't find it he manages
3987s to find a Clank instead but team number
3989s eight got to play careful here team five
3991s trying to come tops side and take
3993s advantage of all of this be going to
3995s come in and use that tamy ultimate to
3997s get away looks for the reset but ski
3999s able to get to the other side of it
4000s keeps the pressure up cat coming in with
4002s those nun trucks trying to go for the
4004s meter dump doesn't find it quite onto ad
4006s Doo ski going to get sent flying here
4008s with one tick of HP left as NE Neu still
4011s two members Left Alive giving Chase to
4012s ski there a doo going to get sent over
4014s the Edge as well and we're going to see
4015s cat finally go for the grabs here will
4017s find a grab onto ski looking for the
4020s team to capitalize on it the grab goes
4022s down into the immediate follow up with
4023s the staff but ski able to get away here
4026s uses the Crouch to do the superhero
4028s Landing drops way faster cat not able to
4031s get inside of the hit box here still
4033s trying to chase that elimination onto
4035s ski so far no value for cat out of this
4038s looks like they were able to finally get
4040s a hold of a doo as able to do the
4042s final tick of damage as the grab comes
4044s through and is confirmed cat just trying
4046s to get in here with these nunchucks and
4048s get a meter dump onto somebody not able
4051s to find it he's been clanked multiple
4052s times the Fight Continues on DRC their
4055s healer going extremely low but the
4057s members of these teams completely split
4060s up now as Coon's team here team number
4062s five able to start finding some value in
4064s these final moments onto these other
4066s teams DRC will get picked off and cut
4069s away by here by try hard so multiple of
4072s these teams down to two players Co still
4074s with that transformation here starting
4076s to cut through try hard will get
4078s separated but it's neon B with the
4080s repeating crossbow who's able to pick up
4082s the elimination now getting put in
4084s the box as soon as the transformation
4086s goes down trying to invest on the R&B on
4088s the fan to pick up an elimination but he
4090s will not find it as big is able to pick
4092s up that elimination cat goes extremely
4095s low is able to find the transformation
4097s one final time before being eliminated
4100s big and B safely hidden down below able
4103s to get away from these grabs and there's
4106s still a member I'm not sure if that's
4108s mushroom top site it is mushroom from
4110s Team 11 Against All Odds a solo player
4113s has been here for the last three zones
4116s and is more than happy with this terms
4118s of events cat will get the grab on Big's
4120s going to walk into the zone to go for
4121s the throw he knows he can't win this
4123s Lobby for his team but he can pick up
4125s one more elimination and he does and now
4127s it's B versus mushroom mushroom might be
4130s able to take this to the end here going
4132s head to-head with b b going to get
4134s locked up in the staff here no sorry
4136s spear coming through goes for the
4137s overhead B goes for the Parry but they
4139s miss each other no connection from
4141s either side the Wisp comes in B going to
4143s use his F to break away and go for a
4145s whsp of his own now mushroom Stuck In
4148s The Zone here b in a very similar
4150s situation mushroom just needs to hold on
4152s for one more tick and there it is ladies
4154s and gentlemen mushroom comes out on top
4157s mushroom will come out on top in the 1 V
4159s one but not going to walk away with the
4161s overall MVP surely Ru that is going to
4164s go to new new who play it really smartly
4168s as those zones start to close on up when
4170s they actually make that play where they
4171s push onto some of those teams on The
4173s High Ground it's really really smart
4174s because we go to that overhead view
4176s actually I'll talk about it in a moment
4177s because we do have to go through our
4178s replays first this is the fight over
4181s towards water wheel as we get the APF
4183s coming in with the dragon layers into n
4185s house might water wheel already having
4186s been activated taking one of the players
4188s down before this is I believe the first
4191s run of yet yeah so cat's there with that
4193s karumi Circle keeping them fully intact
4196s but SM ultimate already having been
4197s invested on the side of try hard's team
4199s so unfortunately not able to slow the
4201s monk down from getting those double grab
4204s since cat just walked through it as we
4206s get to see just the overh hold on that
4208s fan and then the throw of the charg r
4210s that comes out so quickly try hard with
4212s those dual blades looking there for the
4214s Cavalry Bloom has that shove will be
4216s able to recover as a result and
4218s immediately just coming in holding the
4220s blue canceling it out baiting The Flash
4222s and then the second that he knows what
4224s of his team has a player locked down
4226s before they're going to be able to find
4228s that stagger find that Parry he commits
4230s to the Cavalry Bloom and find so much
4233s value as a result that's really
4235s unfortunate it looks like since drk gets
4238s caught out by a tumultuous and just do
4240s Vader held in position for the Phoenix
4242s blast to be able to whittle that Health
4244s away C with an absolute Slither of a
4247s ball left over able to come in with the
4249s transformation you can actually see
4250s mushroom I believe had swapped over to a
4253s ranged weapon to try to chip in damage
4256s and steal the kill away from new new
4259s here's that one versus one as we get to
4261s see dual blades versus spear mushroom
4263s just doing so much with that spear to be
4265s able to light stagger and also using
4267s things like the Dragon Slayers not for
4269s the lockdown of the NZ house but to be
4271s able to keep themselves moving outside
4273s of that corruption sck damage and into
4275s the Zone but returning back to how Nunu
4278s actually played everybody before that
4281s final Zone collapses in you see it at
4283s its best when we actually do that
4285s overhead pan and we see that ne ne are
4288s basically the only team on the left side
4291s of the Zone because what they did before
4293s they actually started making their move
4295s and coming with their ultimates is that
4297s they kicked up a fuss they had a little
4299s bit of a tussle a little bit of a fight
4300s didn't fully commit into it however and
4303s that's the most important thing because
4304s what they essentially did was they
4305s forced teams into choosing whether not
4308s they wanted to commit ultimates in in
4309s and risk getting third partied after the
4312s ultimate had ended or giv moving that
4314s position up onto The High Ground to run
4316s themselves into the more open middle
4318s area of the map which then opened
4320s themselves up to all of the range damage
4323s coming through from try hard's team and
4325s by NE actually doing that not only were
4328s they able to jump on teams that had been
4329s lowered by all of the range damage they
4331s were also able to make sure that they
4333s conserve their resources because they
4335s were the only ones not being picked
4337s apart when every single person in the
4339s middle of the Zone got chunked through
4341s by things like the repeating crossbow
4343s coming through from Tri team really
4345s smart stuff coming for from them yeah
4347s they played it extremely well they
4349s capitalized on try hard's team doing
4351s inane amounts of damage with those
4354s ranged weapons were able to move in and
4355s pick up an elimination which baited
4357s tryhards team into that looking for the
4360s huge third party onto it but crucially
4363s it also baited um uh team number five
4366s Coon's team to come in as well and
4368s because of that Neu is able to slip away
4371s as those two teams heavily engage onto
4373s each other tryhards team ends up losing
4375s one of their players as well vice versa
4378s we see the flip side on tun's team is NE
4380s Neu basically walks away with a full
4382s reset and then is able to start
4383s capitalizing on their own range games as
4386s those grabs start coming through they
4387s start looking up the cliff trying to use
4389s the repeating crossbow and some other
4391s ranged weapons as well and because of
4393s that they're able to find a favorable
4395s position even though they end up finally
4396s losing a player and pick up multiples of
4399s those eliminations so really really well
4402s played coming through from Team Neu but
4405s we still have five more games to go NE
4408s Neu off to a start with a huge lead here
4411s I do believe we're going to take a short
4413s break and then we'll be back to take a
4414s look at the scoreboards and jump into
4416s our next
4420s [Music]
4432s game
4441s [Music]
4458s [Music]
4462s ah
4471s [Music]
4481s [Music]
4488s [Music]
4500s [Music]
4522s n
4524s [Music]
4552s know
4556s [Music]
4612s n
4616s [Music]
4639s [Applause]
4643s ah
4653s hello everybody and welcome back to the
4655s nraa blade Point astral cup it's finals
4658s day rune for trios we've just had game
4661s number one over on Morris and you know
4663s what that means means we're heading off
4665s over to H off and something else that
4667s starts with it h is HTI I think if we
4670s ever get to see HTI come through this is
4672s probably going to be the map that that
4673s he gets played upon simply because of
4675s the amount of verticality but some of
4677s these teams are going to be moving up
4679s vertically are currently on your screen
4682s crazy cow walking away with a whopping
4685s 33.3 points brilliant start to the day
4688s for them and when we last talked to them
4689s in the interview they did say they like
4691s to go incredibly aggressive early on in
4693s the day to give themselves a little bit
4695s of a cushion in case things start taking
4697s a turn for the worst the late of the day
4698s goes on which it's an extremely smart
4702s strategy as well right
4703s because there is the hero Point rule in
4706s play if you're able to find that value
4709s bring that aggression in the early game
4710s play your strongest teams and create a
4713s huge cushion you can come into those
4716s later games and play a completely
4718s different play style when you have that
4719s cushion to fall back onto because you
4722s know you have that cushion you can play
4724s for placement you can play to pick up a
4727s couple of eliminations and make the most
4729s of a game rather than some of these
4731s teams that end up coming into a range
4733s where it is absolutely do or die and
4735s they have to play high-risk High reward
4738s because it's the last game there's no
4740s other games for them to make those
4742s points up if you come into the first
4743s couple of games and play highrisk high
4745s reward and things don't work out for you
4747s then you can still come in and play a
4749s more moderate play style and be all
4752s right if they do work out for you you
4754s get to play a very LAX play style where
4756s you're just playing kind of on that
4759s safety net right you're really riding
4761s that line for the remainder of the games
4764s and just going cool I just don't need to
4766s let some of these other teams outperform
4768s me as we take a look here we are heading
4769s to Holo matab going to be breaking out
4772s crazily as well as a fight up there
4774s inside city of Tang but team number nine
4776s here already going to lose two of their
4778s members immediately as team number eight
4780s try hards team here coming out and just
4782s starting to Blitz straight through the
4785s Moxy yeah it's going to actually look
4787s like we had a Zai in the mix as well
4789s unfortunately that Z not finding a whole
4791s lot of value coming through early on in
4794s the game as team number eight having won
4795s that fight are going to be able to start
4796s looting on up but here is matab and like
4798s you said a lot of players dropping in
4800s this specific location for some of those
4802s really Choy loot paring as little sheep
4805s on that looking for a couple of B shots
4807s to chunk away the armor before coming in
4810s with that great SW looking to try and
4811s find a grapple lock down Justina going
4813s to use that free shell form to be able
4816s to disengage the team and maybe try and
4818s break away to find reinforcements as a
4821s lot of these players with the insides
4822s now going to looking for some of those
4824s sces little she coming in with the
4825s vertical jump lock down onto koala will
4829s be able to take them down incredibly
4831s quickly NE Rolling On Up St actually
4833s going to be clanked before it can hit
4835s into that gold Focus those she charging
4836s it up canceling it out having to be
4838s concerned as big steps into that forward
4840s position to come in with that dagger
4842s before the staff can properly find any
4844s of its value from the length of those
4847s Char up by going for that great totic
4849s ultimate activation going to be knocking
4850s everybody back so he's able to fight the
4853s full connection off of the charge and as
4856s a result so much damage is done that to
4859s much having to use the F to be able to
4860s go aiel and break away from the threet
4862s coming on Pro but he's going to go down
4864s regardless does manage to get parried
4867s however L ship taking the opportunity
4869s with the peel coming through from the
4870s teammates to be able to pick that great
4871s sword back on up and the fight is going
4874s to continue this time onto Q and's koala
4876s who was IA coming back from solo who
4878s picked up by their teammates off of the
4881s potential third party coming on through
4883s little bit
4884s earlier yeah taking a look here and team
4886s two still just moving across they do not
4890s have the opportunity to go pick up
4891s flatulant flatulant does have a
4893s resurrection available to themselves
4895s though so it looks like team two might
4896s reposition to cover that Resurrection as
4898s we cut over here to Team Four inside
4901s city of 10 giving Chase to team 11 this
4903s Ban's breath going to be team fours that
4906s early game Banes brought the strategy we
4908s see uh drg using inside the nvpl and it
4911s looks to be paying off here for team
4913s four they've already picked up four
4915s early game eliminations for themselves
4917s so off to a great start hermine here
4920s looking to give Chase they have a bounty
4922s onto another player and do not want to
4924s give them the opportunity to get away
4925s trying to utilize those grapples with
4928s the followup on the attacks there just
4930s to get as far as they can going vertical
4932s looks to be mushroom who is still the
4934s solo player left alive from Team 11 here
4936s and hermine continues to keep the chase
4939s going has not been able to spot them
4941s just yet is going to turn their
4942s attention over to do a little bit of
4944s looting here doesn't want to give up
4946s that opportunity to get some of those
4949s resources under their belt just yet but
4951s they are slowly getting further and
4954s further away from their Bounty here and
4956s it looks like Team 11's mushroom going
4958s to be heading up towards plumed Castle
4959s potentially trying to lure that team in
4962s team seven here on the other side inside
4963s uan ruins looking to turn on to team one
4966s who just respawn on the top side here
4969s and team seven more than happy to take
4971s them down while they have
4973s almost nothing in their back pocket they
4974s were able to get a couple of purple
4976s weapons there but everybody still on
4977s that white armor trying to move away as
4980s get DK here trying to get grappled down
4984s as we see lemon here pushing up we will
4987s see the Viper old being invested here
4989s the Viper V2 coming through and lemon
4991s says the hack with that they're going to
4993s use the ult to get away the Tessa charm
4995s on the followup though they're not going
4997s to be able to find the full reset but
4999s adal I'm more than happy to follow that
5001s immediately up as Reverb getting caught
5003s out here going to use that Yodo F2 just
5005s to try to capitalize here another
5008s potential Viper ult coming out this time
5011s from team number seven a Tessa invested
5014s yet again here team seven will lose ader
5016s waler but unfortunately no place to go
5018s as they're going to get Charmed up lemon
5021s now just completely caught out is going
5023s to get picked up and eliminated as team
5026s one Against All Odds actually comes out
5028s on top in this fight Moxy Tesla is just
5031s not a fun team to try and rub it back
5032s band back in on cuz you have to remember
5034s that she can cast her ultimate at 55% so
5037s if you try and rub a band back in as a
5038s witch end team onto that Tessa team
5041s after she's used that ultimate she's
5043s going to have a second toide if the
5045s fight goes on a little bit too long and
5046s they lost that Yodo incredibly early on
5049s before the ultimate was able to try and
5051s create any sort of value or Force the
5053s other team to use that witch and
5055s teleport of their owners heading over
5057s towards Imperial we're actually going to
5059s be seeing one of our Transformer teams
5061s going head tohe head eight and 12 try
5064s hard taking a lot of damage up into the
5066s uppercut into grapple extension into
5068s followup Focus Tri hard goes down to the
5073s Wombo Combo and APF is on absolute
5078s fire sorry yeah team 11 here back at it
5082s again already with six eliminations
5085s under their belt as we get ready to head
5086s into that first rly bang Zone one is
5089s collapsing onto Zone number two still
5092s still 36 players left remaining in the
5096s lobby we're going to see these early
5097s stage resurrections had out here very
5100s soon as team 12 just moving across here
5104s looking to move further into the Zone do
5107s a little bit of shopping as we keep the
5110s early game aggression going they want to
5112s capitalize on all of those dark tide
5114s coins they've been able to put together
5115s with those early eliminations cting
5117s across to Team Six now going head
5119s to-head here with team number N9 koala
5121s looking to get some of those scal rushes
5123s but he going to get caught out from
5124s behind as team 10 comes in for the third
5127s party that Dragon Rush going to do so
5129s much damage to koala as it knocks them
5131s over the edge here Kishi forced to go
5133s ahead and Mech up here just to stay
5135s alive as team 10 starts to come in with
5138s a huge clean up here Team Six koala
5141s trying to break away going to get caught
5143s out again going to be forced to use the
5144s Justina Dash just to get away to look
5146s for the reset Casper will go down as we
5149s see team number nine re-engaging onto
5151s this goala will break break away Kishi
5153s is gone as well and it is just koala
5156s remaining here for team number six team
5158s n now trying to come in and capitalize
5160s on this situation to clean up the
5163s members of team number 10 Yan Lee going
5164s to take a lot of damage we are going to
5166s see the ultimate invested Z coming in
5169s with the ultimate as well will catch out
5170s two members from team number 10 going to
5173s try to find it yet again they need a
5175s couple of hits here this is crucial
5177s though they do not have that damage
5179s reduction on Ultimate like many of the
5181s others but they are able to turn back
5183s around and get some of the healing off
5184s of the ultimate looking for that
5186s opportunity to throw out that blue one
5188s more time with the full charge there it
5191s is they catch out X into it xia going to
5194s take a lot of damage but the decada old
5196s going to buy them a little bit of
5197s Freedom as the zai finally goes down
5201s massive damage coming in from Yan Lee
5204s there on that purple fan to clean it up
5206s and this is one of the disadvantages of
5208s playing Z here into trios there are so
5211s many players who are able to come in and
5213s hit you even while you're locked up in
5215s that gold Focus you have no damage
5217s reduction in that ultimate and you take
5220s so much damage that's why they have the
5222s karumi unfortunately the karumi had gone
5225s down when do I Ed the ultimate but I'm
5227s actually such a huge fan of the
5228s composition that they're rocking because
5230s they have the wuan to be able to
5232s disengage but they have the karumi with
5234s that F to be able to give them provide
5237s that damage reduction that like you said
5239s you don't get it's not like something
5240s like the acles where you're able to
5241s utilize your F1 to be able to take
5244s advantage of that damage reduction buff
5247s Z is a Sitting Duck if you're able to
5250s break away from the light targets coming
5252s through from that ultimate and just
5254s chunk her down from afar and especially
5256s brutal if you get third party because
5258s then multiple teams are chipping away
5261s and it doesn't so much become a chippers
5263s an absolute smashing of that health bar
5266s within seconds no worry by third party
5268s however as we head into the first R of
5270s Yang team 12 going to be going up
5272s against team number five Sans siphon
5274s missu on that teada going to be coming
5277s in Mythic grab connecting follow up P
5280s sword swing this is an incredibly low
5281s teator on the other side and C goes down
5284s missu is now going to be free to be able
5285s to throw those shelves in whenever they
5287s want doesn't have to worry about keeping
5288s the other deat in check pushes onto the
5290s zip forcing that ultimate out incredibly
5293s early and now the shelves are being used
5294s to lock the ZIP down into that position
5297s so they can pop that V2 burst as soon as
5299s possible and look for the kill
5301s confirmation as miss you with the hor
5302s horizontal and continuing to Hound this
5305s ZIP down with the charged all to keep
5307s themselves directly behind her footsteps
5310s is going to pick up a very fast and
5312s clean Fight Win it's always going to be
5315s a tough uphill battle when the other
5317s team stand siphon teator the first to go
5319s down because that teator a lot of the
5321s time is the one that the other teator
5323s has to use the majority of their
5325s ultimate to keep in check the second
5327s that to falls out early you can get so
5328s much more aggressive with those shots
5331s yeah I mean this was so played so well
5333s played by missu not only is he able to
5336s catch cat out in the air with a massive
5338s hit from the P sword as he's falling he
5341s pops the F1 and the cat on the other
5344s side must be thinking in his head okay
5346s he was Airborne he just hit me surely he
5348s doesn't have enough time to pop that F
5351s before he touches the ground so as soon
5354s as he comes down cat releases a blue
5356s onto him and sure enough that F1
5358s immediately gets the grab into the uh
5361s flip there doing a ton of damage on
5364s theat and while this is happening the
5366s two teammates on missu side are dogging
5370s down the other two players so that they
5373s do not see that cat has gone extremely
5377s low so zipping from the other team
5379s never Pops that ultimate never buys them
5381s the time to just get away back to team
5383s 12 again who just won that realm of Y
5386s coming in here onto APF team here team
5388s number 12 and we're also going to see
5390s team one here caught up in in the mix
5393s going to use that wo Chanel to
5394s immediately get away and team two is
5396s more than happy to keep this Chase going
5399s even though they've burnt ultimates
5400s because they have that Resurrection
5402s available to themselves from the verban
5403s birds might they want to continue to
5405s press any advantage that they have
5408s unfortunately it looks like they have
5409s lost track of both of these teams and
5412s they miss out on a chance to capitalize
5414s on some eliminations while they have
5416s that buff turning back to team number
5418s five here that Yang depletion coming
5420s through DCR KK already elimin going
5423s extremely low here cat trying to get a
5425s grab out onto somebody will get the
5427s elimination on mushroom but can't push
5429s onto it because the other members of
5431s Team 11 and Team Four just going to lock
5434s them up into the sand siphon they will
5436s be eliminated and of course they have
5438s that Yang depletion so there's no
5440s turning back to get the resurrection
5442s that is going to be it for that team
5445s such an unfortunate turn of events they
5447s were able to get the elimination Moxy
5449s but could not get their hands onto that
5452s Soul Bloom oh you hate to see it run
5455s when you do so much but that's that's
5457s the one well I see one that's one of the
5459s major problems when you have that young
5461s de right you have to play a lot more
5462s aggressive and even though you're able
5463s to find the kill a lot of the time you
5465s have to play in such an aggressive
5466s position that even finding the kill
5468s still means that you lose overall as
5470s heading over towards lak we are going to
5472s see one of these teams already down one
5474s of those major players Sans siphon
5477s lacking that Z ping is immediately going
5479s to be the get out signal for team number
5483s 10 as he's just trying to use the PSE at
5485s horizontal momentum off of these
5487s grapples to keep himself out from that
5490s fight as long as possible they don't
5493s even have enough coins to be able to buy
5495s that zip back it looks like it really
5497s has just been a call to get out and
5499s preserve the team to live to fight
5501s another D potentially get to buy that
5504s zip back as it's going to be all the way
5506s towards the outskirts of that zone soft
5508s stepping gecko foot this is something
5510s that you and I have had a little bit bit
5512s of a discussion about whether or not
5514s that soft step and gecko foot
5515s combination is actually a little bit of
5517s a Nerf to soft step given the fact that
5519s gecko foot is one of those sojs that not
5521s a lot of players especially at this
5523s level like to run with because it really
5524s does mess with the timing on those scale
5527s rushes well the interesting thing about
5529s geeku foot and why it's not utilized as
5532s much as well is just in terms of
5534s slotting it in as a six Soul Jade right
5538s there's so many other things you would
5540s rather have I think with time this is
5542s going to become a much more favored
5544s version of this particular Soul Jade
5546s because players now will have the
5547s opportunity to get used to the movement
5551s with gecko foot the big problem is
5553s because so many players opt out of
5555s taking it because there's just better
5556s Soul Jades to run that they aren't used
5560s to that movement yet now that it's
5562s combined with a soul Jade that players
5563s would actually like to use that soft
5565s step and it has the potential to be
5568s upgraded as well I think over time as
5570s players adjust to that movement they're
5571s going to be very happy to have it
5573s especially here on a map like Hollow
5576s rooth where there are so many of these
5577s Rock faces and that gecko foot just
5579s makes it so much easier to transverse it
5583s it's going to be one of those Jades that
5585s time is going to tell but I do think in
5587s time it will be favored unfortunately
5589s for Yan Lee here there's nothing to be
5591s favored here they are being completely
5593s boxed in and gate kept by team number
5594s eight here and they know Yan Lee is here
5597s they are more than happy to keep it
5598s going Unfortunately they don't fan out
5600s they stick together and y Lee sees an
5603s opening in in a weakness in the wall if
5606s you will finds a way to slip through
5607s team8 will see them but Yan Lee just
5609s going to try to keep it moving here
5611s trying to keep team eight out of that
5613s grapple range team eight also having
5615s taken a lot of tick damage there will
5617s eventually have to stop to look for the
5619s reset to get those heals off so Yanni
5621s might survive as we turn back to team
5623s number two here turking heavily in onto
5626s Team Four here we're going to see the
5627s Wisp come in flatulant trying to get the
5630s sand wisp out to keep them from taking
5631s the realm of Yang not able to catch it
5633s but they will head into the realm of
5635s Yang as it looks like team two is going
5637s to be going head to-head with Team Four
5639s whether they like it or not no potential
5641s for third party but Team Four might be
5644s on the back foot all ultimates going to
5646s be available for team number two don't
5648s know if they are for team number four
5650s hen just charging up that P looking to
5653s try and dunk someone down with the
5654s vertical drop flat you and oh my
5656s goodness that was almost such a huge
5658s Dragon SCE he's still looking for it as
5660s he's not going to run into nums with
5662s thator ultimate making sure he's not
5663s able to find the lineup semi ultimate
5666s invested from both of these teams Flash
5667s and taking so much damage it's actually
5670s going to be sin who's dropping that zip
5672s ultim first PL still trying to find an
5675s opportunity and window to use this
5677s dragon slay but he capes being shoved
5680s back by the teada on team number four
5683s locked up now out for her to be able to
5685s try and come in Plum finally able to
5687s come in with a dragon s but he's
5689s interrupted from the actual kill
5691s confirmation by the horizontal charge up
5693s from team Four's teada and he goes down
5696s team two now missing two of their
5699s players since also going to finally lose
5701s the last and what a peel what a long
5705s sort Interruption coming through to save
5708s them from that Nezar so we often talk
5711s about this right a lot of players as
5713s soon as they pick up a spear one of the
5714s reasons it's kind of unfavored is
5717s because you'll see players who often
5719s just end up crutching the Dragon Rush
5721s right it makes it very obvious what
5723s you're going for and what you're trying
5724s to do but we see a clear example of why
5727s players do do that because of the amount
5730s of value you're able to get when you do
5732s finally land it and that's exactly what
5734s we saw there at Team two we finally able
5736s to put together a single dragons rush
5738s into that gold ne's might and come out
5740s on top because of it even after losing
5743s two of their members there in the realm
5744s of Y Casper here the last remaining
5746s member for Team Six going to get uh
5748s Charmed here no place to go as the other
5752s team here our lovely team one just
5754s chases him down and puts an end to him
5757s here very unfortunate for Casper here
5759s but team one super happy about picking
5761s up their fourth elimination of the game
5764s scaling being a little rough here for
5766s team number one as they are still
5767s rocking two sets of blue armor trying to
5770s head into this uh mid game and looking
5773s to make it to late game we are zone
5774s three right now 60 seconds till we start
5777s to clap us onto zone four as we cut back
5778s to Neu going head to-head here with team
5781s number eight Parry coming in there from
5783s B but not going to follow up on it as
5784s the rest of the team looking to cover
5786s for B tap Dodges away takes a ton of
5788s damage though gets put into the wall be
5790s just looking to get a single pot off
5793s here so he can come back into the fight
5794s that white armor not going to cut it
5796s though is try hard coming in here with
5798s that huge pole sword Cuts him down to
5801s size coming in now looking to clean up
5803s the remaining members of Neu catches big
5806s off guard there able to get double hits
5808s there big by himself in a 1v3 scenario
5811s this is the nightmare this is not where
5813s you want to be if you're the team
5815s looking to capitalize on these early
5816s games and unfortunately that's going to
5818s be it for Neo NE as team eight sends
5821s them back to the lobby third part's
5823s coming in though team number 12 Rolling
5826s On Up try hard actually getting his
5828s Sprint banned out going to have to use
5831s that ultimate on that t High to be able
5833s to survive a lot of that pressure coming
5835s through the karumi had just used the
5837s ultimate as well so they're not going to
5838s have it has to go for the flamer to make
5840s sure that no one looks at chunk try
5842s hard's feet down te going to be
5844s activated that F coming in clutch it
5846s does now heal es ski just tap Dodges
5849s with that karoni to keep the teor
5852s available and attached to try hard who's
5854s been able to find a double grab elen
5856s going incredibly low gets Reverb grabbed
5858s and slammed into the ground 6 fet under
5861s do they go and that uian ultimate still
5864s going to be available as well for a
5865s couple more seconds it's now dropped on
5868s out and team eight have to worry about
5871s the fact that they going to be
5872s vulnerable without both of those
5873s Transformations available but because
5875s he's been able to cycle back into that
5876s karumi ultimate they don't have to worry
5879s about trying to disengage or survive and
5881s they've actually been able to lock a
5882s player down entirely into that razor
5885s Swift Out miss you goes now it's just a
5887s numbers fight they're going to be able
5889s to try and cut off that portal
5891s disengagement coming on through over
5894s towards Frozen as we actually see Trad
5896s committing all the way through the
5897s portal to try and Chase that player down
5900s and figure out where exactly they've run
5903s off to yeah this is absolutely huge you
5906s know we have not talked enough today
5908s about how massive that karumi buff is
5911s the ability to keep a monk player healed
5914s while you're giving them that damage
5916s reduction as well is just absolutely
5919s massive Team Four here though turning on
5921s to the members of team number two team
5924s four down to just numza now and
5926s completely locked down in that stone
5927s form and unfortunately it is stone form
5930s on the pole sword so it is much less
5932s damage reduction coming through and
5933s they're just able to chunk them down but
5935s team two is unaware of team number eight
5937s coming back through the portal and going
5939s to come in onto the third party team
5941s eight threatening the space but not
5943s going to push onto team two because
5945s crucially they did just burn through all
5947s of their ultimates in that previous
5949s fight they are down resources they would
5951s much rather pick through these bodies
5953s and get some much needed resources and
5955s turn back away and get an opportunity to
5958s get those ultimates back online before
5960s they push and aage on a fight here and
5963s again that karumi tether coming in
5964s through that F3 just absolutely massive
5967s there we go they're going to pop the no
5968s old Zone as well which will continue to
5971s buy them time to get those ultimates
5973s back up online team eight knows exactly
5975s what they're doing as team seven turns
5976s in onto team one here Reverb going to
5979s get stunned out there by the short stun
5981s from Team s's Quin Ling but
5982s unfortunately it's not going to be
5983s enough Quin Ling taking a ton of damage
5985s and just immediately gets Blitz through
5987s as the entire team turns onto them DRX
5989s extremely low will use the ult to pull
5992s them away and buy them just enough time
5995s to use that F to get some Shield back on
5997s these players team sevens will get the
5998s resurrection onto quinl and quing will
6001s find a blue armor to swap into here but
6003s the Tessa ultimate going to come through
6004s and connect onto two players from Team
6006s seven now we're going to see their wuen
6008s old invested as team 10 comes in for the
6010s potential third party and team one
6013s sitting on the back foot here no
6014s ultimates no way to get away from this
6017s at all if team 10 keeps the pressure up
6020s there's not going to be a place for team
6021s to go and team one's only direction to
6023s run away is back into team number seven
6026s team seven here doesn't want anything to
6028s do with this fight they know the third
6029s part is coming through so they are going
6031s to just break away team one is able to
6033s create some space and hopefully pull
6036s that attention away from themselves onto
6037s team number seven so that they can get
6039s away here and that's exactly what it
6041s looks like they've been able to do team
6042s one will live to fight another day Moxy
6045s and that means that we'll see all of
6046s these teams go at it again in about a
6049s minute when all of those ultimates come
6051s back online R really wanted one of those
6054s players dead was getting into position
6055s to be able to close up the distance and
6057s use the feree but they're actually
6059s intercepted by the wuan before they're
6060s able to find the hit and as a result the
6063s team are able to fully teleport out and
6065s don't have to worry about spending too
6066s much time picking that body up off of
6068s the K now we're going to get to see the
6071s same fight take two the only difference
6073s is this time team eight are caugh out
6075s right in the middle of it this is where
6077s try hards team had run away from when
6079s they did pop that no Al very smartly
6082s because they saw both team one and team8
6084s rolling up in the distance and knew that
6086s they needed to make those two teams
6087s fight each other allowing them the
6089s opportunity to disengage Boulders
6091s ultimates back up so that when they do
6092s get pressured not only are they going to
6094s have the full transformation sequence
6096s they're going to be able to have just
6097s kill potential and also spacing threat
6099s too especially try hard he knows how to
6101s play around things like the Viper
6103s ultimate he's not going to panic and Pop
6105s That ultimate too early so he does get
6107s canceled out of it and as a result we're
6109s going to be seeing a lot of these teams
6110s having to be a lot more careful about
6111s how they try and approach these
6113s Transformer teams s siphon doesn't
6116s really have to worry about that attack
6118s on Titan teams do because the Viper
6120s ultimate in that charge up State can be
6122s interrupted interrupted by the grabs if
6124s you're a s siphon team and you're going
6126s up against Transformers there's a reason
6127s we're seeing the monks take a hit in
6129s this meta and it's because even if you
6131s find the double grab that zip V2 kicks
6133s in and saves absolutely everybody so you
6136s don't find that same kill potential that
6138s you do when you're going up against
6139s something like that attack on Titan team
6141s where you're not only able to find the
6142s kills but also able to deny a lot of the
6144s wi conditions in the form of those
6146s ultimate setups as well so we have 15
6149s players left in this Lobby everyone
6151s going to start to move forward and
6153s posture up for the spawning of the
6155s Morris blessing for some teams
6157s especially if they're running the teada
6158s it's all about being able to scale your
6160s V3 into that Golden State for these
6163s Transformer teams it's going to be about
6164s scaling your ti High to have the most
6167s kill potential and also the healthiest
6169s amount of armor with it scaling up off
6172s of the loot when you're in that ultimate
6174s activation team two s on that's Z
6177s playing a little bit more forward
6178s because if B take a couple of hits too
6180s many they're going to be able to fall
6181s back to the rest of their team with the
6183s help of that F1 Morris blessing actually
6185s going to immediately come into control
6187s of team number eight team 10 a little
6190s bit caught out in the middle not really
6192s wanting to make their presence known and
6193s push onto a team because they're going
6194s to get third parted by the team directly
6197s behind them and as a result team eight
6200s are able to walk away with that mors
6202s blessing it does look like someone has
6204s flames bre on the cannon or fire tick on
6206s the bow because we are seeing that
6208s burning tick damage starting to attack
6210s some of these health bars but run this
6212s might be a slow one as everyone's going
6214s to be playing a little bit more
6215s passively a lot more defensively wanting
6217s to hold on to these ultimates for as
6219s long as possible only really applying a
6221s little bit of pressure just enough to
6223s try and force some of these teams and
6224s departing with resources so that when
6227s the Zone properly collapses and it
6229s becomes that allite slugfest it's the
6231s ultimates and abilities you have to
6232s immediately pull out rather than just
6235s disengaging and popping a Vitalia well
6237s crucially as well take a look at this
6239s final Zone look at how much cover there
6242s is regardless of where you are this
6243s looks like a very open Final Zone but
6246s we've seen time and time again these
6247s players very able to utilize even the
6250s most minimal of cover to escape from
6252s entire ultimates and teams as well as to
6254s escape from monk Robbs you know tryhards
6256s team is going to be 100% waiting for the
6259s zone to collapse as much as humanly
6261s possible before they try to invest those
6263s ultimates and get away here we're going
6264s to see Team seven here trying to turn on
6267s to team another team here but the W
6269s Chanel going to be invested to get them
6271s away and team seven going to lose two of
6273s their players immediately here as yet
6275s had another third party coming in team
6276s two trying to come in and clean it up
6278s and they will find an elimination there
6281s unfortunately for team number one
6284s they're on the back side here not in a
6286s strong position team a and team two
6288s going to be sandwiched in between both
6290s of them
6291s drk trying to break away trying to turn
6294s over onto team number two unfortunately
6296s team two still has all of their
6297s ultimates in the tank here massive
6299s chunks of damage coming out yogurt is
6300s going to be eliminated from a bow shot
6302s from downtown here from team number 10
6304s and team two just in a horrible
6307s situation as they turn back the rest of
6309s team one trying to come inside here puts
6311s themselves in a box as team 10 just
6314s comes in and cleans them up and says
6316s thanks for putting yourself in the kill
6318s box here and things turn very rapid ly
6321s Moxy as we were expecting this Zone to
6323s go very slow we go from eight sorry we
6325s go from 15 players to seven players left
6328s remaining alive sheep caught on the
6330s outside here against team number eight
6332s the last remaining player here in team
6333s eight would love to have this second set
6335s of legendary armor so they're going to
6337s invest ultimates here cuz they want to
6339s put it onto their uan as well sheep no
6341s place to go and sure enough they're
6342s going to go down a doo on the backside
6345s here still in the ultimate trying to use
6346s Yan to cover as we see Team 10 looking
6349s to come in we're down to just six
6351s players left alive this is the final
6353s fight Moxy ad Doo making that break over
6356s towards the body karumi ultimate
6357s invested as try hard going for the
6358s transmission he's got one he's looking
6360s for that second if he can find it he's
6362s unfortunately not able to his C is
6364s actually just tap dodging left to right
6367s every single time he frows out and it
6369s does look like the play was able to
6370s wiggle out of try hard's hand as a
6372s result SM ultimate also going to be
6374s making it even harder for this m to find
6375s Value he's got one in his hand yet again
6378s but it's still being denied the second
6380s the f looking to try and scoop yanle
6382s into closing distance for this usan to
6385s be able to build up as much rage as
6387s possible to have that ultimate available
6389s five players remaining and it's going to
6391s be a doo now in the back foot 99% to the
6394s ultimate goes for the double jump to be
6396s able to hold on just long enough but he
6398s goes down as the ultimate becomes
6400s available oh what a
6402s turnaround yeah I mean this was an
6404s unfortunate turn of events for team
6406s eight immediately when team 10 comes
6408s over the top Road onto try hards team
6410s there the immediate Target acquisition
6412s is the Kumi they immediately Blitz her
6415s out of existence and though tryhard is
6417s able to get the ultimate up it is a very
6419s short timer for this team we've seen
6421s time and time again how vulnerable Monk
6424s Is without a Kumi especially now that
6426s karumi F3 has the damage reduction they
6429s can feed onto the monk as well as soon
6431s as that Target acquisition comes through
6433s and the karumi goes down there's almost
6435s no hope of team8 coming out on top
6437s unless they land some very crucial
6439s double grbs and he's just not able to
6441s find it because when you're the last
6443s team in a lobby as a Transformer the
6445s monk just is very easy to tap Dodge you
6447s know where it's coming from he was able
6450s to find the solo grab amidst the chaos
6452s but as soon as that chaos died down and
6454s they realized oh cool they've got one of
6456s our teammates it was just we're
6458s prioritizing not getting grabbed up here
6460s and the uan unfortunately was not in a
6462s position to help lock down members of
6465s that enemy team for try hard to be able
6467s to pick up and it's it it's textbook
6471s monk comp right as soon as that karumi
6473s goes down it is the first domino in a
6475s series of events that you know what's
6477s going to follow up Moxy yeah it was a
6479s really good tumult ultimate as well to
6481s be able to just cordon off that yam from
6484s being able to just jump on those players
6486s and light stagger them so that they're
6488s not able to tap Dodge around those hands
6490s cuz like you said when you don't have
6492s the chaos of having to dodge six other
6495s transformed monks it's so much easier to
6498s be able to time your Dodgers and
6499s especially at this the players know the
6502s Rhythm it really is Transformers finding
6504s the value in the chaos of the fight as
6506s you can see here try hard is able to
6508s find the double grass because not
6509s everyone on team 12 is looking directly
6511s at him instead they're having to contest
6513s with a doo on that Yan just jumping on
6515s them with the staggers surely will get
6518s to see as well the cannon damage coming
6520s through from I believe it was team 10
6523s when they go up against that test the
6524s team L shap unfortunately taking a lot
6526s of damage from that Yan it's really
6528s smart as well from ad Doo he finds the
6530s kill leaves the bloom to be able to
6532s backtrack on top of it he doesn't want
6533s the legendary armor he wants the bloom
6535s to be able to properly reset but
6538s unfortunately takes so much damage here
6540s at this moment try hard already having
6542s gone down because of that lack of karumi
6545s AD Doo just trying to hold on as long as
6546s possible to get the health replenished
6548s that he can use that Ean ultimate to try
6550s and find a couple of kills and if he's
6552s not able to find the kills Look to just
6554s jump into the zone and deny the Kill
6556s from going through from the other team
6559s but that is unfortunate
6561s not to be and we're going to be seeing
6563s that s siphon composition walk out on
6565s top and yet again it feels like the wind
6568s condition is there for the Transformers
6570s team but sand siphon they see that door
6572s opening ever so slightly and immediately
6575s slam it shut even with the karumi Buffs
6577s coming through the fact that you are
6579s still forced to hold off any style of
6583s attacking when that Tor is up makes it
6586s so detrimental for the karumi to be able
6588s to defend herself as opposed to the zip
6591s who is free to weave in and out of
6593s aggressive and defensive positions with
6595s both the V2 and the F1 because it's not
6598s immediately cancelled out by just
6601s holding your own against the mechanical
6603s fight that's going on around you yeah as
6605s we take a look here at the scoreboard as
6607s well though ntl able to move in that
6608s first place position this is very
6610s unfortunate this is what I talked about
6612s about halfway through the game here
6613s crazy cow goes out early this game
6615s they're not able to find the value they
6617s usually are out of their first two games
6619s because they get eliminated so early
6621s here and actually find themselves in
6623s second place now so coming into game
6625s number three they're going to have to
6627s look to try to find a big value game
6629s again if they want to have any sort of
6631s cushion heading later into the day ntl
6634s sitting in first over top of them at a
6636s 41.9 DPC Q gaining a couple of points
6640s here with that 28.6 Billy Billy smile
6643s sitting relatively U uh better than they
6646s were last time here at a 28.2 not a ton
6649s of value but still maintaining that top
6651s four position s worms moving up quite a
6654s bit here into fifth place at the 24.8
6656s and U rounding out our top six right now
6659s at a
6661s 19.6 unfortunately for TDM two zero
6664s point games in a row going to be quite
6666s hard for them lonely here was our team
6669s that was in uh sixth place before
6670s Unfortunately they have fallen uh even
6673s further down the leaderboard here
6675s struggling to find Value here in game
6678s number two we still have four games to
6681s go though and speaking of escaping as
6684s well Moxy we're gonna take a short
6685s Escape before we come back and lock in
6688s for our third game of the
6696s [Music]

6924s welcome back to astral cup ladies and
6927s gentlemen it's me the Rune keeper joined
6929s by my lovely Duo Caster here the lovely
6932s Moxy as we get ready to head in to game
6935s number three very interesting first
6937s couple of games here um these
6939s Transformer comps coming through game
6941s one not able to find as much value as
6943s they would like in their second game
6945s here though even though they don't quite
6947s make it all the way to the end they find
6949s a lot of value throughout the game and
6952s they play extremely well especially
6954s utilizing those karumi Buffs coming off
6956s of the tether you know ski definitely my
6959s MVP for game number two Moxy the way
6962s that he's able to tether onto try hard
6964s who's playing the Monk and has so much
6967s confidence to never break that tether is
6969s willing to tap Dodge absolutely
6972s everything to use a couple of those
6974s whole Dodges as well mixing it up and
6976s never breaks the tether throughout
6978s multiple fights continuing to give
6980s tryhard that damage reduction on top of
6982s the healing coming through from that F3
6985s on the karumi this is something that's
6987s extremely difficult for new players to
6989s pick up when they're trying to learn
6991s this composition and it's actually
6993s something that players even in the nvpl
6996s struggle with because you're able to
6998s just put that karumi in a position where
7000s she feels forced to break that tether
7002s one way or the other uh and then that's
7006s exactly how you beat that particular
7008s comp is that Target Focus onto the KY
7010s which is what we saw in the end the Ki
7012s was finally able to just be completely
7014s dogged down uh by team 10 when they come
7016s over the top rope there but ski doing a
7019s phenomenal job for their team there and
7022s holding that tether as long as possible
7024s as we head back to morile for game
7027s number three what are you expecting to
7029s see Moxy I mean I'm hoping we get to see
7032s Hardy but you and I we were talking in
7033s between the break I don't think we're
7036s going to get to see hardi purely because
7038s as you said trying to Synergy between
7041s such a newly released hero is going to
7043s be a lot harder as well as having to
7045s sacrifice certain compositions like the
7047s sand siphon like the attack on Titan
7048s which are just so drilled into how to
7051s play I was about to eat my words if we
7053s cut over to a team in theah but it's not
7055s it's Attack on Titan variation with a
7056s Tessa fighting over money spot at the
7059s moment Reverb going incredibly low we're
7062s actually going to see yogurt throwing
7063s out the ultimate trying to peel for
7065s their Viper coming in to set up the
7066s Dragon Slayers into Nezar pulling the
7069s full Focus as well as the two teammates
7072s are able to capitalize on that stun
7074s animation that yogurt is able to set on
7077s up incredibly smart play coming through
7079s from Tessa taking advantage of the fact
7081s that when you're in that first drop
7082s fight Tessa gets her ultimate up faster
7084s than a lot of these other hero so you
7086s are immediately able to capitalize off
7088s of that one is moving over to shipwreck
7090s it does look like we're going to be in
7091s another one of those incredibly
7092s aggressive lobbies Kishi on that wo Chen
7096s has that long sword looking to try and
7098s find an in at the moment koal is the
7100s only one currently actually both of
7102s Casper and Kishi do have great armor so
7104s they have to be incredibly careful that
7105s they don't drop down some of these other
7107s teams Ki charging up that charged
7109s horizontal on the long to looking play
7111s off of the sagger set up by his team the
7113s overhead hold spit actually getting
7115s committed onto doing so much damage but
7117s we're actually going to see nza go down
7119s there was a karumi to off on the right
7121s side and it does look like actually one
7123s player was able to be picked up off of
7124s the back of it but almost immediately
7126s they're going to go down as Viper
7128s ultimate now invested koala without the
7131s armor to be able to keep themselves
7133s alive through the wind up going to go
7136s down Viper ultimate denied team kill
7140s picked up yeah turning over here to team
7144s 12 yet again miss you little caught out
7146s here uh two of their teammates down here
7149s trying to come over as Z Doo tries to
7151s get the Resurrection on the ski will be
7152s able to tap Dodge the grab though keep
7154s it going and keep the attention of the
7156s monk VI Doo yet again at the last
7159s possible second using the eye frames to
7160s get away missu here not having any of it
7164s really wants to come in tries to use the
7165s stamp to keep ad Doo from the body ad
7167s Doo actually jumps up into the grab
7170s though no a doo might have just ended
7174s things here for team number eight triy
7175s hard with a lick of HP on the backside
7178s what were you thinking a Toto oh my
7182s goodness try hard coming up looking out
7184s for some pods here such an unfortunate
7186s turn of events miss you going to use
7188s that Bell there coming in try hard
7190s trying to utilize the staff there it is
7191s the Decay ultimate though no place for
7193s missu to go the hit confirm into the
7195s staff this is going to be it for missu
7197s here very unfortunate he's the only one
7200s with a resurrection available on the
7203s team as well missu going to have to run
7205s it back and spend this game trying to
7207s get APF and their other teammate back in
7211s it oh I flashed back to J Cup last year
7216s with Roy HEI getting one versus three
7219s off of a double gra now we're going to
7221s be seeing team number 10 trying to take
7223s on team number one karumi armor restore
7226s actually picked up for this Transformer
7229s team very interesting to see that they
7231s do have purple armor on that usan
7233s however so they're going to be getting
7233s the full amount of value for that
7235s ultimate de invested now to be able to
7238s keep everyone topped back up as team
7240s number one did look for that
7241s disengagement team three also on the
7243s horizon looking to try and come in with
7246s that third party team 10 might kite
7248s their way over towards the bista neither
7250s they alter of ultimates to be able to
7253s sit on this weapon and make sure that no
7256s one wants to fully commit to the chase
7258s on that transform team and that is
7260s exactly what happens the Yan moving the
7262s way up on the blister making sure that
7264s that Monk and KI on taking too much
7266s pressure behind them as we move back
7268s into shipwreck grapple cancel coming out
7271s onto s Yan no one going down just yet
7275s for the team as we're going to be seeing
7276s the wish and Blades coming through Viper
7278s Al but now invest that silence going to
7280s be dodged by everyone breaking away
7282s behind the buildings but it catches one
7285s out and then solo immediately goes down
7288s Parry picked up as well off of the back
7290s of commitment onto that blue koala
7292s trying to come in with those nunchucks
7294s which an ultimate going to be invested
7296s to be able to pick Casper right back up
7299s I do believe Theo still has that
7300s ultimate to be able to use if q& wants
7303s to try and rub a band back into that
7304s fight but they have to be careful
7305s because since nums actually had gone for
7307s the transformation to be able to make
7309s sure that they're defending that body
7312s and find the revive and full reset that
7315s the Wen teleport disengagement allowed
7317s for the team yeah Team Six here like you
7321s said able to disengage that wuen all
7323s this is why wuen is probably going to be
7325s one of those Heroes that never really
7327s falls out of The metam Moxy the amount
7329s of utility that he realistically brings
7331s to the team the fact that he's able to
7333s use Golden Focus uh off of that first f
7336s as well able to restore shield for the
7338s team to act as a pseudo healer in the
7341s middle of a fight you're able to block
7343s projectiles with those wind walls as
7345s well for a limited time and then of
7347s course you have that ultimate which is
7349s able to buy you so much of a reset it's
7353s also an ultimate that is you're able to
7355s use to kind of bait other ultimates out
7357s as well you're able to take these
7359s engagements with team force them to
7361s start using those transformation alss
7363s and while those Transformations are
7364s going through you can literally just use
7366s the wuen all during the same channel
7368s period and get your team out and now
7370s they're not able to find any value in
7372s those ultimates and all you've traded is
7374s a singular ult especially when you're
7376s playing that attack on Titan comp that
7377s we see constantly once those ultimates
7380s are down you can re-engage onto that
7382s team that has now lost their core
7384s ultimate Loop that they weren't able to
7386s get any value off of you're able to come
7388s back in with a Viper stun something like
7390s the Yodo or even replacing the Yodo with
7392s the Tessa that we've seen as well and
7394s just start to lock this team down and
7396s they have no sort of out like you do but
7399s because of your ability to have that Wu
7401s Chan and it's why I never see this hero
7403s realistically falling out of the meta
7406s we're going to see fly here Neo looking
7407s to come in here on team number two Viper
7410s old being invested there by flatulant
7413s unfortunately be just gets completely
7415s eliminated fly tries to stay away from
7418s this so that they also don't get stun
7420s locked out here unfortunately when they
7421s do go back in trying to save something
7424s they are going to be completely
7426s eliminated the third party getting ready
7427s to come through big here in in a bit of
7430s a pickle not only are the wind walls
7431s down going to be able to block these
7433s hands coming through but he has no
7435s support coming through from the team
7437s either there's multiple teams nearby as
7440s well so he's going to be forced into the
7442s Zone with no healing coming from aumi
7444s and we're going to see Team two continue
7446s to keep the pressure up waits for the
7448s Bell gets the read on it comes through
7450s going to pop the F2 on top of him comes
7453s in with those all the Yodo has to do is
7455s repop the ability but not even going to
7456s go for it just utilizes the clanks there
7459s to let the Zone do the work and sheep
7461s here able to pick up yet another
7463s elimination as team two continues to
7465s hold the edge of the zone for him here
7467s so he can come back in with little to no
7469s worry Moxy yeah it looked like n
7472s actually using that karumi te earlier
7474s before the fight began because of that
7476s pressure coming through from the attack
7478s on Titan team when they were looking to
7480s run away and unfortunately for them
7483s losing that fight is going to
7484s significantly set them back in terms of
7487s being able to try and put themselves
7489s into to taking this first round of Yang
7491s something that the Transformer team
7492s really needs because it's the easiest
7494s way to be able to scale your loot early
7497s on in these rounds there's no surprises
7501s that's the exact reason why we're going
7502s to be seeing team five post you up to
7504s try and take a real of Yang themselves
7506s purple armor already onto cat not
7509s running the F2 running the F1 cat
7512s looking to just try and threaten this
7513s space Kumi umbrella actually going to be
7515s popped early coming through from team8
7518s to have that defense buff now it's going
7520s to be a race and Cat gets griefed out of
7523s being able to go through the portal has
7526s anyone been able to make it toal
7527s ultimate is actually going to force cat
7529s into using that TN High ultimate early
7532s zip ultimate now going to be popped cat
7533s going to be receiving the karumi heal
7536s early on since you can recast that
7538s Circle so mon is able to freely move
7540s around a little bit more without having
7542s to worry about being denied that Avenue
7544s of sustain as we get to see that R of
7546s Yang that team eight were able to take
7548s going going up against team number seven
7551s dodo on that t High still holding on to
7553s the ultimate looking to scale Rush with
7555s this Spear and find a lock and
7557s continuing to harass and move around the
7561s Yan in Ultimate up for team seven but
7564s the scale Rush from adoro making it a
7565s lot harder for any of these players to
7568s actually stay static enough for the usan
7569s to be able to find that lock down that
7571s he's been looking for and he's out of
7573s ultimate T High still with the ultimate
7576s of his own now he's going to use it to
7578s divide and the rest of the team since
7580s the Yan isn't going to be able to pop
7582s the ultimate and save himself and two
7585s players go down in quick succession
7587s leaving the lone T high in the ultimate
7590s being peppered away by this repeating
7592s crossbow and P sword coming through from
7595s try hard he does get grabbed but the
7597s rest of the team have enough damage to
7599s keep us back safe and team eight walk
7601s away with the win this this was
7603s disgusting a Dodo not only do you pull
7605s out the Mon's Natural Born enemy there
7607s in the repeating cross
7610s but you turn around and you style on him
7613s by getting the elimination with your
7615s wisp you get him low enough you let your
7618s team Whack Him one more time and then
7619s you throw the whisp you literally throw
7622s inane in the man's eye come on ad Doo
7625s that that was disrespectful downright
7628s but a very clean fight coming out from
7630s that team the target acquisition very
7632s strong and of course just utilizing
7635s every piece to their advantage able to
7637s utilize the ultimate there keep those
7640s monk hands from coming through once you
7641s transform and of course stepping all the
7643s way through the backside and just
7644s tearing through him with that repeating
7647s crossbow and again this is something
7649s we've seen time and time again when it
7650s comes to these particular uh monk comps
7653s that repeating crossbow is something
7654s like Venom tip is just such a detriment
7657s it's a it's like trying to climb a
7660s massive wall with no climbing gear when
7662s you're a monk you are just getting put
7664s into the blender and there's nothing
7667s your team can do about it your karumi
7668s can tether you but you are such a big
7671s Target that Venom tick is going to tick
7672s away so fast at your life bar as we cut
7675s back here to team 11 moving away here
7678s from team number eight as they continue
7680s to give Chase and team 11 knows they
7683s don't want to take this fight they're
7684s potentially going to be playing into a
7686s buff on the side of team number eight
7688s and they don't want to take a fight out
7689s of disadvantage a little bit of swap
7691s going here but try hard comes up over
7693s the top here with the p sword some
7695s coverage coming in going to buy a little
7696s bit of protection for mushroom but
7697s mushroom immediately eat that P sword we
7700s see the old invested here as well as
7702s they just try to come in and get
7704s mushroom away from the rest of this
7705s fight Plan B trying to utilize that long
7707s sword here but Xiao going to take a ton
7710s of damage the ultimate already being
7712s invested here from the zipping try hard
7715s Plan B caught in the whisp he's just
7717s barely able to get away try hard trying
7718s to charge up those verticals on that P
7721s sword and catch somebody off guard will
7722s catch Plan B with the stage one onto the
7725s vertical ad Doo will turn around and do
7726s it again Plan B taking a ton of damage
7729s here dodo up in the tree looking for the
7731s reset mushroom is going to go down as
7733s team 11 here loses one of their members
7736s about to lose another they get try hard
7738s though unfortunately he's got the
7739s Vermilion bird M Plan B able to stay
7741s alive here but it's now him versus ski
7744s and sure enough they're going to clean
7746s up the elimination ski tryhard more than
7749s happy with his turn of events a Dodo
7751s goes down but he does have the
7752s Vermillion he's just going to come back
7754s and regroup with the team well one team
7757s that needs to come back at the moment is
7759s team number seven they have that y
7761s depletion they're looking to try and
7762s find these kills feeling just coming
7765s through with that Katana has to be
7766s careful that they're not going to take
7769s too much damage hiding behind the monk
7772s at the moment to be able to get that
7773s Shield reset one minute and 34 seconds
7775s this is not a place that you want to be
7777s fighting celestra is renowned for how
7780s easy it is for these players to slip
7781s away from these fights and it seems like
7784s everyone from Team seven is trusting in
7786s the monk to be able to lock the players
7787s down before they're able B to disengage
7789s and use the buildings to block line of
7791s sight and slip away silently they've
7793s been able to find one kill that's one
7795s Soul Blom that's going to be cleansed
7797s from them karumi ultimate invested as
7799s well so that King can get aggressive on
7801s top of the rooftop overh holding the
7803s katana to bait the red Flash coming
7805s through from his opponent now commits
7807s onto it putting themselves into Canyon
7810s grapple cancel now coming on through but
7812s because of the train he's not able to
7815s actually go for a combo string and
7817s behind them it does look like Edward has
7819s actually been forced to use that TN High
7821s ultimate early now we're going to be
7823s seeing Kang on the uian looking to try
7825s and knock down some of these players if
7827s you're in your ultimate however you're
7829s not able to grab the soul Bloom so they
7831s need to find these kills in quickly and
7833s then drop out of the ultimate otherwise
7835s run is going to be no good they're going
7837s to be kicked out of the lobby to the
7839s depletion and they're going up against
7841s the team with the karumi F3 that damage
7843s reduction is making it so much harder
7845s for team seven to find any damage that
7847s actually sticks on to these players Kang
7850s still on the E ultimate is going to be
7852s dropping out of it just now are they
7854s going to be able to find a kill the Bell
7856s denies Quang from being able to connect
7858s the karumi ultimate keeping everyone
7860s topped up Quang now going to get
7861s staggered out by the other Yan's
7863s ultimate going into the barding to be
7865s able to scare wash through the door for
7866s him but he gets caught out and it's team
7869s number seven unfortunately that haven't
7871s been able to find the kills in time team
7873s 10 walk away with the fight win and deny
7876s the comeback from the team that had Yang
7878s to play
7880s they've tried so hard here Moxy it's a
7882s kind of deadly situation for them though
7885s not only are you inside celester where
7886s people are able to break your ankle so
7888s easy just by using that terrain to get
7891s those scale rushes and keep moving
7892s around you also have that Kumi of course
7895s with the F3 using the tether the
7897s ultimate coming through just to keep
7898s everyone topped up not even allowing you
7901s to pick up the elimination and then just
7903s karumi tethering to get the resurrection
7905s and keep them into the game just saying
7907s if we keep topped up that yang
7908s completion is going to come through and
7909s kill you there's nothing you can do
7911s about it and sure enough they just have
7912s enough sustain and engage and disengage
7915s from that fight to keep team seven from
7917s finding any sort of value there we see
7919s Team Six here heading in looking to go
7921s onto this moris blessing but we do have
7923s team number two looking to come through
7925s we're going to see the Yodo F invested
7927s here as well as the wuen wind walls to
7929s come through sheep going to come from
7931s the other side as we cut to the realm of
7932s Yang here it's going to be team number
7933s eight going head to-head with team
7935s number 12 a little bit of a run back
7937s here for these two APF trying to come in
7940s oh my goodness a massive Parry onto ad
7942s Doo's scale Rush sorry not scale rush
7944s but Dragon Rush there missu coming in
7946s more than happy with his upgrade to the
7948s legendary spear as ad Doo tries to come
7949s in again and he does it again missu
7952s finds the Parry a second time onto ad
7955s Doo ad Doo continues to try to commit to
7957s the Dragon Rush but he's not able to
7960s find it as he gets parried both times
7963s now inside here the Tami old coming
7965s through as the doo looks to use the whis
7967s trying to lock down down somebody ski
7970s taking a lot of damage from the uan
7972s though and the double grab from missu a
7976s doo is going to go down as team number
7979s eight is getting rinsed through here by
7982s missu the double grab costing them
7984s entire member try hard on the backside
7986s looking for the scale Rush you're going
7988s to see the teada s coming through trying
7990s to buy them some value try hard going to
7991s get picked up the old going to end here
7993s but into the karumi ultimate try hard
7996s just locked on the edge here another
7998s dragons Rush going to be parried off
8000s here by APF try hard trying to find a
8003s reset will find one pot no ultimate
8006s available though coming in here with the
8007s puls or just looking to do as much
8009s damage as they can they will find damage
8011s onto APF and Against All Odds team eight
8013s being kept Alive by the Healer here ski
8017s just doing everything they can oh my
8020s goodness there it is the Dreadful whale
8022s to lock it out and Against All Odds try
8025s hard's team turns that around Moxy
8028s sometimes you have an ace up your sleeve
8031s sometimes you have a dreadful whale in
8032s your back pocket and the fact that they
8035s wait until that last moment to the
8037s Dreadful whale is so unexpected you're
8039s not able to par it before it charges up
8041s into that golden at that point you just
8043s have to take your hands off of the
8045s keyboard wonderfully played we were
8047s talking that we'd been impressed by ski
8049s on the karumi but I mean that zip suain
8052s ability oh we had a start track and that
8055s would have been through the roof the
8057s fact that everyone is able to stay alive
8059s S one of your players because of the
8060s punishment coming through from that
8062s double grab now we're going to see that
8063s assassin lunge coming through from seven
8065s with the dagger looking to lock down Q
8067s and's Casper who's trying to stay ahead
8069s of his Chasers with the deal Halid
8072s movement Tech up he goes into the tree
8074s off of the opportunity provided by that
8076s Yodo F gets interrupted by the scale
8078s Rush however and that's going to be team
8080s seven able to find the elimination clean
8083s stuff coming for from them but my
8085s goodness we do really have to talk about
8088s about the fact that Dreadful whale it's
8090s it's I think the first time as well that
8091s we've seen it today very much is
8094s immensely powerful and a lot of the time
8096s you do see it being run a lot more
8098s inside those realm of yangs for the
8100s reason that it has so much damage off of
8102s the back of it yes but the lock down
8105s potential when you're able to actually
8107s get into that golden charge and keep a
8109s player trapped right into the middle of
8111s it you immediately come to your other
8113s teammates hey I have summon in Dreadful
8115s we're going to be able to combo into
8117s other soldiers yeah absolutely and I
8119s mean I I I don't know why we've gone
8122s back to Dreadful whale being gold Focus
8125s uh it's just absolutely such a strong
8127s Jade on probably arguably one of the
8131s strongest uh weapons in the game right
8133s now we have seen dagger meta for a long
8136s time many players just keeping one in
8137s their back pocket for the movement alone
8140s as we take a look here a fight breaking
8142s out between team number eight and team
8143s number two here team number eight with
8145s that Mystic mik getting that 25% damage
8147s reduction is going to be in a strong
8150s position to take this fight team number
8152s two trying to stay spread out here so
8154s that they can just keep pressuring team
8156s eight away they know that Buff's not
8158s going to last for too terribly longer
8160s they have about a minute left try hard
8162s though trying to utilize a little bit of
8163s cover trying to utilize uh some of that
8165s surfing off of the P sword to reposition
8168s to the flank there and catch one of
8170s these players outright but team two
8172s continues to position this extremely
8173s well sheep going to get caught here with
8175s a grapple we're going to see them come
8177s in here and try hard out out in front is
8179s going to pop that F1 wants to come in
8181s wants to get one of them to make the
8182s mistake to throw the blue there it is
8183s try hard's going to find the value and
8185s the rest of his team is going to be able
8186s to push in now there's the Viper roll
8188s tryhard extremely topside hard just
8191s waiting to come cover for his team as
8192s the vi roll ends and sure enough he will
8194s be able to do that there with the teada
8196s ultimate and they're going to be forced
8198s to pop the wuan ultimate as they find a
8200s ton of value out of triy hard alone
8203s there being able to come in catch sheep
8206s out and just keep the pressure going
8208s they have only invested that ultimate
8211s there from tryhard and just want to keep
8214s them locked down going to give Chase
8216s here looking for team two unfortunately
8218s the Mystic might has run out so as soon
8220s as team two is able to get a full reset
8223s they're going to be coming in one
8225s ultimate for one ultimate and it is
8227s going to be an even fight they will not
8229s have that 25% damage reduction but
8232s they've already invested ultimates here
8233s they do not want to give up on the chase
8235s or the fight try hard entering the fight
8237s again with that F1 active here trying to
8239s bait somebody into the blue so he can
8241s get it unfortunately he will walk into a
8243s purple and try hard going to take a lot
8245s of damage from that dagger down now just
8247s getting locked up here inside that P
8251s sword we're going to see the damage
8253s continue to come through but flatulant
8254s going to go down to a doo here as yet
8257s another third party rolls through team
8259s 10 just coming in to find some value out
8261s of this fight team one sitting top side
8264s watching this turn of events as it goes
8266s down try hard able to get a little bit
8268s of a reset but going to start taking a
8269s lot of damage again that legendary P
8271s sword saving him quite a bit we will see
8274s ski use some of their abilities here to
8276s buy a safety net for tryhard he's trying
8279s to find the SC Rush he's able to get
8280s away from those grapples able to use the
8282s ultimate to get another one off but quu
8284s going to come in there on the uan doing
8286s a lot of stagger onto try hard and quite
8288s a bit of damage try hard trying to find
8290s a reset but shots raining from every
8293s single Direction the Tessa ultimate will
8295s come through try hard trying to get away
8297s here he will get topside and just enough
8300s time to get away yogurt will catch a
8302s little bit of damage try hard going to
8304s come in with that P sword though there
8305s we go the F1 comes up he's able to get
8308s the grab out and get away here but ski
8311s separated from the rest of the team
8312s fighting team 10 by themselves their
8315s healer completely locked down grabbed up
8317s no place to go Ski's going to go down
8319s adodo and tryhard are able to regroup
8321s but they are going to lose the most
8323s crucial part of their team Moxy and it's
8326s right in the middle as well well if they
8328s try and stick this revive they're going
8330s to get jumped on by two different teams
8332s because team 10 are still taking
8334s pressure from Team One On The High
8337s Ground ski not yet going to burn out if
8339s try hards team play this smartly they
8341s can wait for team one and team 10 to
8343s aggress into each other and that's
8344s exactly what they're doing out of the
8345s bushes they go out onto the low ground
8348s they go They're going to be able to pick
8350s up ski wait for that alive 14 count to
8352s go to 15 there it is the revive is stuck
8355s they've gotsky back into the game re
8358s coming in with that Viper ultimate
8359s looking to try and find some of these
8361s stuns karum is going to Golden focus
8363s with that ultimate to be able to keep
8364s everyone healed right on up and that
8366s damage and potential coming through from
8368s Team 13 and 12 on the flank is actually
8370s going to bully team one out of being
8372s able to capitalize repeating crossbow
8374s instead coming through from Reverb as
8377s they are not scaled up blue armor still
8379s on yogurt and DRX the purple on the
8382s Viper for the sole reason of getting
8384s them to survive the wind up damage of
8387s that Al ultimate as we're going to see
8389s them just having to play extremely
8391s passively wait for those ultimates to
8392s charge up and only then look for an
8395s instigation into a fight if they play
8397s their cards right they're going to be
8399s able to capitalize as the Zone collapses
8402s but this is very much a composition that
8403s is designed to try and come in for those
8405s third parties get a kill and then very
8408s quickly reposition your way out you do
8410s not have the insane amount of
8412s sustainability that is available to the
8414s sand si in teams where the zip is going
8415s to make sure that everyone's able to
8417s survive in theam and the tul can come in
8420s with that ultimate and cover everyone's
8422s Escape without having to worry about
8423s being chunked through before you're able
8425s to break into safety by those ranged
8428s weapons team one going to be playing a
8430s lot more passively they're not going to
8431s be playing nraa they're going to be
8433s rolling stealth Jacks as we're going to
8435s have a look at the overhead view and see
8437s these teams that are still going to be
8438s playing aggressively are going to be
8440s looking to bully other teams into
8442s overplaying their hand a little bit too
8445s early as team 12's missu has been able
8447s to get their hands onto Legendary
8449s Weapons we're actually going to see try
8450s hard out in the open trying to deny team
8453s 12 from being able to pick up that Mars
8455s blessing and get themselves a second lot
8458s of legendary armor team 10 backing on
8461s off team two also not really wanting to
8464s make their presence known around that
8465s moris blessing more than content to just
8467s exchange a couple of pot shots from
8469s those range weapons coming on through as
8472s everyone puts themselves into a high
8473s ground position so that they're less
8475s likely to get jumped down upon by
8477s everyone with those grapples yeah taking
8480s a look here they do have a relatively
8483s strong position on the top side here
8485s team 12 trying to stay on the flat
8488s ground here where they have cover with
8489s the trees as well of course that moris
8491s blessing coming through trying to
8492s contest it Team 8 though looking to push
8495s forward to be the team that tries to
8496s capitalize on his team 12 goes down
8499s below team two still in a strong
8500s position to try to grief the players out
8503s here on the box but it looks like team
8504s eight is going to be able to walk away
8507s here with that moris blessing oh they
8510s almost get it Unfortunately they don't
8512s have the cover ad Doo doesn't have the
8515s ultimate to invest on it as well no
8517s maybe they did get it yeah they were
8518s able to get it that legendary armor
8520s coming through onto try hard there sorry
8522s I saw the little timer there on the
8524s umbrella and uh thought it was the Box
8526s halfway open as we take a look here
8528s teammate very happy about the position
8530s there and ski still holding on to that
8532s Dreadful whale not showing it very often
8535s either trying to keep that Ace hidden up
8538s their sleeve as we get ready to head
8540s into some of these final fights 15
8542s players left alive and ski Against All
8544s Odds brought back quite literally
8546s probably at the last possible second
8548s when we see them move out of the Bush to
8550s go down I wasn't sure if they were going
8552s to be able to get there before they
8554s timed out they must have hit it right as
8557s they were about to time out able to get
8559s that Resurrection thanks to the other
8560s teams moving forward here team two
8562s wanting to break team 10 away from the
8564s space they want to hold on to these
8565s rooftops have this wall to fall behind
8567s if things start going the wrong way try
8569s hard there with the Swarm pumping some
8571s damage out just getting shots down there
8573s onto team number two as they hold into
8576s the open there team one in a very strong
8579s aggressive position there at the top
8581s side of that wall as they look to press
8583s down onto team 12 who not in the
8586s strongest of positions but they need to
8587s be careful because team eight is coming
8589s up from behind and will evict them from
8591s that place of power as team one looks to
8594s move on to team number 12 team one
8597s trying to hold on to the Rock there will
8599s come up and looks to evict Team 8 back
8601s from it but they're going to pay the
8603s price here as they are sandwiched
8604s between two teams and team 12 from down
8606s below start to come in heavily with
8608s those bow shots onto their team and
8610s start doing a lot of damage we will see
8613s the transformation being invested here
8615s from team number 10 who also want to
8618s come in and get involved in this fight
8620s try hard with the ultimate active
8621s already here just going to move away
8623s trying to come in and cover they don't
8625s want to lose ski yet again able to come
8627s and catch quite a bit of damage here
8629s onu more damage coming through the
8631s ultimate going to be able to come
8632s through just in time try hard going to
8634s get grabbed up they are going to go
8636s ahead and invest the slam there onto try
8638s hard try hard coming down to the bottom
8640s on this tree looking for a little bit of
8642s a space but wants to get regrouped with
8644s the team unfortunately team8 kind of
8646s caught out in the middle here not a lot
8648s of ground for them to go to trying to
8650s turn things on to team number 10 with
8652s the Swarm but the monk going to D
8653s transform team one will lose DRX here
8657s and yogurt and Reverb forced to move
8658s into that position that team 12 was in
8661s as APF and missu keep the pressure up
8663s onto team number 10 who are still trying
8666s to maintain that strong position on the
8667s top side of that rock Moi yeah miss you
8670s and that transformation is a huge Target
8672s to team number two on the other side of
8674s the Zone ranged weapons come on out as
8677s they're just absolutely chunking through
8679s that Monk's Health as quickly as they
8681s can which and winds in position to be
8683s able to block any range projectile
8685s backfiring onto them they just keep
8688s themselves out of sight out of mind
8690s behind this fencing waiting for
8691s flatulant to be able to come in and set
8694s this yo up when this Zone properly
8696s collapses this field is incredibly wide
8699s open there is not a lot of places for
8701s these players to hide from that Viper
8703s ultimate especially if they're the only
8704s ones in control of that fencing we're
8706s going to see Cy coming in with that
8708s Phantom step looking to be able to avoid
8710s it has the fans going to be able to
8712s commit onto some of those blue focuses
8714s now we see that Dreadful whale being
8715s invested from the side of ski in the
8718s center of the Zone they're going to
8720s actually get enchanted by the Tessa V1
8723s however y going for the transformation
8725s on the T High Ski looking to try and
8727s come in with that dagger one two gets
8729s knocked back by the Tessa F going to put
8731s themselves towards the Monk's feet to be
8732s able to tap Dodge around the potential
8733s scoop coming on through is going to be
8735s able to tap as well back into the F1
8737s Dreadful whale starts to come through
8739s pushing Yan Le into looking for a jump
8741s out of it but he's able to scoop ski at
8743s the very end of it slam onto the zip but
8746s it's actually going going to be blocked
8748s by any followup damage coming through
8749s with a Dodo peeling with the Phoenix
8751s blast on that long shot to allow ski to
8754s back on off ice the pressure and let the
8756s zip heal back up F1 thrown out so that
8759s everyone on teammate can hold these
8761s forward aggressive positions try hard
8762s going down incredibly low going to
8764s potentially get stunned out by the Viper
8766s not going to be able to avoid any of the
8768s followup damage the Kei does not have
8770s the zip ultimate to be able to keep him
8772s topped up and healthy ad Doo now the one
8774s under pressure ski coming in threatening
8776s the space with the charge lmb on the
8778s dagger as we're actually going to see
8779s seven looking to lock him down if the
8780s charged R in purple to be able to go
8783s through that blue ski backing on off
8785s does have the F1 sets up the dread for
8787s whale gets the elimination onto Reverb
8790s as a result Soul blim potentially still
8792s there goes for the soul break gets hit
8794s by the Tessa V1 charges up the lmb couns
8797s it out early to be able to come through
8798s and Ice into the Tessa but he gets
8800s stunned out by the T V2 going to be
8803s available to survive the mid dump coming
8804s through from the nunchucks hasn't used
8806s it just yet tap Dodges into the safety
8808s of the Zone get hit by the Tessa f using
8810s the ultimate to be able to keep
8811s themselves alive overh holds the second
8813s stage of the lmb and finds the
8815s elimination ski is a player that we've
8817s been talking about that is impressed all
8819s day but run my goodness that zip just
8822s pulled out a magic trick I mean if
8825s you're Tessa going into that fight in a
8827s one V one into a zip who's got ultimate
8830s available it's a really hard fight for
8832s you to win in that final Circle even
8834s though the healing is going to be
8835s extremely cut by Zone even if they're
8838s able to get one tick of healing by
8841s finding that little space of circle in
8843s the middle it is so much healing for
8847s that zip especially compared to somebody
8849s who is forced to not get any healing
8851s whatsoever you're in that final Zone
8853s you're also having to fight you're also
8855s taking damage from them it is so hard
8858s for you to come back from the Testa
8859s tries extremely hard they just aren't
8862s able to clutch it out on the end the the
8864s zip healing a little too much for them
8866s in the end but ski also plays it
8868s extremely well they're able to bait out
8869s make them think that they're going to go
8871s uh in and grab themselves or cleanse
8874s themselves from the Tessa ultimate and
8875s because they don't they actually get a
8877s ton of damage out they do get turned on
8879s to with the mini meter dump coming in
8881s from the nunchucks because of it though
8883s but they know that they have their
8884s ultimate available especially with the
8886s amount of Rage that they're able to
8887s build by getting those couple of
8889s additional hits and then ski is just
8890s able to play it out to the very end it
8893s does such a great job and I mean ski
8895s really the MVP here com in for try
8897s hard's team today they have done so well
8900s as a Healer and just as a player in
8902s general I mean they've got to be patting
8904s ski on the bag right now yeah has
8907s impressed one on karumi but definitely
8909s for me the the fact that you're able to
8911s not just keep yourself alive but also
8914s hold on to Dreadful wh still find Value
8916s off of the Dreadful wh even when the E
8918s the SLE is revealed and people know to
8920s expect the Dreadful wh it almost becomes
8923s another sort of caveat to the Mind Games
8925s that ski is able to to pull out right
8927s it's a case of like am I going to hold
8929s to go into Dreadful whale am I going to
8931s go into the R&B is it going to be the
8932s lmbb you have to figure it out and if
8935s you choose one of those wrong options
8937s you're immediately going to be punished
8939s as opposed to even if you are able to
8941s read what the zip is able to do like you
8943s said ski is going to have that
8945s sustainability with your abilities to be
8947s able to recover that is not afforded to
8950s the Tessa considering it's the V1 and
8953s not something like the V2 or the V3
8955s where you get a little bit of stay back
8957s yourself yeah I mean zipping is just
8961s such a good hero in general there's a
8963s reason why when we went freeo play we
8965s unlocked zipping for all of the players
8968s coming in it's a hero that has a very
8970s low skill floor but a massive skill
8973s ceiling coming in right you're able to
8975s utilize those gold focuses at the proper
8977s time to break and chain away from these
8979s combos as well as having just the such
8983s good clean mechanics right you're not
8985s able to really abuse some of of your
8987s ultimates in terms of doing damage and
8989s things like that you have to rely on
8991s your mechanics as a player as we turn in
8993s and take a look
8995s unfortunately uh we do see some changes
8998s yet again crazy Cal not having another
9001s good game here they're still barely put
9002s six points on the board they're dropping
9004s down to third place the chance of that
9007s cushion that they're used to having
9008s completely gone away Billy Billy smile
9010s going to move up into second place here
9011s at a 47.9 but ntl having an explosive
9015s game three almost doubling their score
9018s as they move up to a
9020s 71.7
9022s Moxy yeah I think we sort of moved away
9025s from a very Niche astral cup not met in
9028s terms of compositions necessarily but in
9031s terms of pacing to the game and we've
9033s returned to a very familiar format of
9036s experienced Esports play so it's it's no
9039s surprise that these teams who do already
9041s have that experienced Esports uh will be
9045s doing a little bit better than some of
9046s the these other teams who are purely off
9048s of ranked because on ranked like you can
9050s go as crazy as you want and play super
9052s super aggressively but in Esports there
9055s are certain different caveats especially
9056s if it's in a mod wall where you have to
9059s remember thinking about things like
9060s positions and even coming down to it
9062s looked like in the replay ski doesn't
9064s actually just use the zip ultimate to be
9067s able to sustain themselves because they
9069s still have health and shielding left it
9071s actually looks like ski is using the zip
9073s ultimate activation to body block the
9075s Tesa from being able to get back into
9078s the safety and away from the corruption
9081s take damage and it's things like that
9084s right where you're able to take yourself
9085s out of it's just a one V one and make
9088s these really quickly on thefly micro
9090s decisions because you're used to having
9091s to go and win One V ones in these
9095s extremely professional environments
9097s where even if you're down two of your
9098s players you still have to learn how to
9100s play on the back foot that gives some of
9102s these players significant advantages in
9104s being able to perform under the amount
9107s of pressure that is levied upon their
9109s shoulders in environments such as these
9112s uh yeah again
9114s absolutely like I said with zip when it
9117s comes right down to it it is a hero that
9119s has a very low skill floor they're very
9122s easy to pick up and play right out of
9123s the box but an explosively high skill
9127s ceiling because you don't have some of
9130s these things like you're not playing
9131s teada where if you make a whoopsy you
9133s have multiple charges on that ultimate
9135s you can buy yourself kind of out of
9137s trouble with you have that one charge on
9139s your F or your old activation
9141s realistically if things go wrong and
9143s from there you're forced to play on your
9145s mechanics alone so not only do you have
9148s to have exceptionally good micro where
9151s you're just able to to pull out of the
9153s box some of these better Combos and know
9155s how to control that neutral
9157s exceptionally well but on top of that
9160s you have to have good macro decision
9162s making because you're most of the time
9164s taking these 1V ons kind of in a
9166s complete vacuum there's no Zone to worry
9168s about there's no my armor is half of
9171s what theirs is there's a lot of decision
9173s making that you have to make immediately
9176s on the Fly and there's a reason with a
9178s lot of these teams in na that we see the
9181s healers ending up being the igl they are
9184s the member of the team that understands
9186s the state of the game they're making
9188s those shot calls especially because they
9191s are the player or uh with that healing
9194s right so they know how far you can push
9197s the limits of the team before they're
9199s going to find themselves backed in a
9200s corner and not being able to do anything
9203s to help you so we see players like ski
9207s coming in they have exceptionally good
9209s micro because of the skill sealing of
9210s the hero but they also have
9212s exceptionally good macro because they
9214s are typically in that igl sort of
9216s position so we see things like that
9219s where they're going to push any
9220s advantage they can they're going to use
9221s that old activation to hold you in the
9223s zone for just a second longer because
9226s they know know even a single tick off of
9228s that zone is going to put them in a
9230s winnable position take any advantage you
9233s can possibly get but speaking of taking
9236s things we're going to take ourselves
9237s away for a short break before we come
9239s back and lock in for our last three
9241s games of the
9248s [Music]

9593s [Music]
9598s hello everybody and welcome back to the
9600s Nora blade Point astral cup I'm still
9602s Moxy but this time around I'm going to
9604s be joined by a different face on the
9606s desk we've got Raven hit for the second
9609s half of the day and that means that even
9611s we get to figure out who's going to be
9612s the champion of triers and it's looking
9614s an awful lot like it's going to be try
9616s hard at zto and skis team because my
9619s goodness they have been popping off
9621s these last couple of matches yeah hero
9623s normally is their tul Adon as their
9626s fourth player in their wuen normally
9628s only plays Wen for the team so Adon is
9630s showing up big for them filling in those
9632s big shoes hero one of the best tamies in
9634s North
9635s America um it's just a completely
9637s different style when you're playing that
9638s siphon miror and we saw a ton of clutch
9641s play coming out from ski ski has been
9643s working on his support play a ton
9646s playing against him over the years and
9647s even practicing with him leading up the
9649s worlds uh ski has stepped up to the
9652s plate and showing a big adapting to this
9655s current meta and the new weapon fan now
9657s normally ski was a long sword player but
9660s realizing the fan I showed him a ton of
9662s things that the fan is basically a
9664s better long sword and he's showing up
9666s big for Intel right now great clutch by
9668s him right at the end great Sacrifice
9671s from adod you pointed it out to me Moxy
9672s was was this an intentional strategy
9675s from in
9676s for their temi to make a noble sacrifice
9679s and in that case uh zipping with a
9681s dagger with her ultimate up is one of
9683s the strongest characters in the game
9685s when it comes to heal off almost as
9687s strong and if not stronger than Faria
9690s especially if she holds the center right
9692s there at the end we see IM yellow land
9694s that perfect V1 uh Tessa ult and all he
9698s had to do is walk back into the Zone
9699s because in that last little bit of end
9701s game The Zone damage actually does more
9704s damage than you can do with your actual
9705s phys physical weapon so with that stun
9707s he going to let that duration cook up
9709s ski on the outside and hopefully try to
9711s play some type of keep out game keeping
9713s himself in the last part of the center
9715s of the circle hopefully getting another
9717s Ulta and he possibly could have won but
9719s there's no guarantees zipping ultimate
9721s is powerful now looking at the lobby in
9723s the beginning here uh today there is a
9726s bunch of really really good teams coming
9729s out to play
9730s this FL flating seven L sheep one of the
9734s strongest fighting teams off spawn here
9736s landing on the
9736s fireflies at wreckage on to DPC q and
9740s jaon Z is going to get taken down
9742s Mushroom in a last hit point situation
9744s has the P Sword in the Stone form trying
9746s to release here but he's unable to
9748s flotant with the two3 enjoying his time
9752s and absolutely deletes mushroom inside
9756s wreckage this Firefly spot to the north
9758s Moxy one of my favorite squares in land
9760s on um on this dust day fireflies are
9762s going to be coming in huge yeah I'm I'm
9765s a Sunwing
9766s Firefly enjoyer I will say when we're on
9769s these night and DUS Maps we're going to
9771s be getting to see a lot of these teams
9772s Landing for those sword after Firefly
9774s spot so they can get those ultimates
9776s online as quickly as possible Tes
9777s ultimate going to be coming through T
9779s does actually touch onto new news B who
9781s tries to throw the charge are on the
9783s pole sword before the te can snap and
9786s stun them and is going to be parried
9789s immediately had absolutely no business
9792s going after that player because there's
9793s no one like staggering him to Pro
9795s prevent that par from coming through and
9798s it will be try hards team that are able
9800s to off of the back of that kill and
9801s Tessa ultimate change things around in
9804s the fight Tessa incredibly strong in the
9807s game normally but even more so in these
9809s Firefly Maps considering you're able to
9811s throw your ultimate out at 55% not 100
9814s like some of these other players as
9817s we're going to be seeing team eight off
9818s of the back of that win over on our last
9821s game looking to start picking up some
9823s early momentum Casper's team you were
9826s talking to me and saying that you were
9828s expecting Casper's team to be maybe one
9829s of those teams that did like to mix up a
9831s couple of their hero picks if we do see
9833s a Hardy it's probably going to be from
9836s them as they're just trying to sort of
9837s experiment and see some of these
9839s compositions going to be running that
9841s traditional sand siphon at the moment
9843s top tier of meta as they head into sun
9846s wings and start to figure out a loop
9848s halfing over towards Center and then
9850s moving over to areas like scaffolding
9852s you can find a lot of early loot
9855s especially strong early loot for this
9857s composition that relies on it very simar
9860s Transformers right you want to loot up
9861s as quickly as possible so your teor is
9863s able to get into that gold state of V
9865s free and have it available when you go
9867s into realm of Yang yeah if you're just
9869s tuning in the way sand sling works the
9871s way teada works is the the Rarity of the
9874s weapons of the entire team Buffs up his
9876s ultimate it actually has ultimate Rarity
9878s where it goes from purple all the way to
9880s gold and gold teada basically gives you
9882s a V2 stagger now we're going to see Omni
9885s bear Edward Allen team
9887s versus uh Casper teams over from the top
9890s ropes Omni bear already popping the F3
9893s getting a nice some some great damage on
9895s to kilaa Kil is going to be forcing out
9896s that Tam Old but with the R&B he's going
9899s to blow up on bear before the kwy AL is
9901s going to come out now kilawa dodging the
9904s Yan all but it's a little bit too late
9907s you never want your kwy Al to go down
9909s double Transformer does come out can
9911s they find a stagger right now but
9912s between both of the buildings it's going
9914s to be very hard for adward to get any
9916s value out of this monk ultimate kill on
9918s the top Road it's going to come in with
9919s the R&B getting big damage denying the
9921s res on the usan kilaa completely
9925s dictating the place uh the pace of this
9928s fight adward going to get hit by the
9930s poison mushroom unfortunately for him
9932s he's going to be ticking away that
9934s Health pool absolutely getting chunked
9936s nice play from q&t to slow this down to
9938s clean this up wisely adwards going to
9940s make his way out of her while the usot
9941s is backing off looks like they're going
9942s to be able to pick up both of them but
9944s adward no slouch to fighting is going to
9946s be fighting out kilwa can kilwa close
9948s this out Edward with the overh going to
9950s dodge out doesn't want to release here
9952s kilwa no goldf to his name followup mix
9955s up coming out from adward now adward on
9957s The Buttery rocks going to get a double
9958s hold Kil has to be careful here F's
9961s going to come out again with the mixup
9963s release adward putting Killa in a one
9966s hit hit point situation but Casper with
9968s the backup in that heel is going to
9970s close it out and q&t is going to claim
9973s dominance over here at Sunway
9976s smart stuff from q&t because they able
9977s to take out both players and deny the
9980s revive as that monk ultimate is going to
9982s be denied from new new since R able to
9985s claim the kill onto big mid TN High
9988s transformation plan be coming in with
9990s that Yodo F2 now going to be going for
9992s that ultimate V3 invested from Plan B
9995s looking to try and find any spacing and
9998s teleportation to try and collapse onto
10000s this Transformer team as well as keep
10002s them up and away from this Yan actually
10005s jumping into that fer Mech V3 invested
10008s from the f as well using the boosters
10010s putting themselves up onto that High
10012s Ground they'll be able to pepp some of
10014s the damage onto a retreating team number
10017s five having to reposition off of some of
10018s the damage coming through from the
10020s repeating crossbow just checking to make
10021s sure that there's no player sneakily
10023s hiding rather cheeky inside that purple
10025s bush with a couple of cannon shots
10026s coming through going to now have to
10028s reposition themselves so they don't get
10030s grabbed out of that Mech by cap who is
10033s going to be emboldened by that karumi F3
10036s coming on through plan be throwing out
10038s that Yodo F2 by themselves the time to
10041s set up the skish actually scouring
10042s directly at the monk gets grabbed that's
10046s one Cannon shot's actually going to
10048s stagger cat from being able to find the
10050s subsequent slam and plan B is able to
10052s sneak their way out of the grab into a
10055s charge focus on that Katana to take
10057s down karumi ultimate is invested but
10060s planb is still able to find all of the
10061s damage on the player sitting inside it
10064s C's going to go down incredibly quickly
10065s as well and my goodness what a fer of V3
10069s to turn that fight around the second
10071s that plan B got grabbed out that
10072s situation got so dicey for this team
10075s this is one of the new compositions
10076s being used in uh China right now to
10079s counter Transformers we're seeing here
10081s over on our server now missu lqing APF
10084s against a Transformers team they get
10085s double grabbed right now APF still has
10088s all but will he Port them out they have
10090s the advantage they have the kill are
10091s they going to try to fly back in missu
10094s lqing needing a he back up to fool do
10096s they want to re-engage with no ultimate
10098s no looks like they're going to back off
10099s here this is one of the things I was
10101s actually talking about with IDC is that
10104s when on these Firefly days the hit and
10106s run of the Viper wuen Tesla or Yodo so a
10111s lot of situations where is it worth it
10114s even after you're getting two kills both
10116s teams have no alss to re-engage cuz the
10118s possibility of third party as we're
10120s seeing another team little sheep's team
10122s coming in and third partying the same
10124s team s is going to get picked the part
10125s right now V2 Al going to be invested DRX
10129s trying to make his way away from it but
10131s the usan AL is not going to be able to
10132s last with a singular Al it's just so
10135s hard to survive the ferocity of a very
10138s coordinated third party strike little
10140s sheep seem able to come in just with a
10142s V2 Viper third party clean this fight up
10146s and jabbing as well jabing is so much
10149s damage jabing really is insanely
10152s overpowered with just how fast and how
10154s much damage it does being able to play
10156s off of a lot of the staggers set up by
10158s your teammates B also going to be out on
10161s the field for a little bit longer for
10164s team two to have been able to lock down
10166s some of those players going to put
10168s themselves directly for it now
10169s reposition and look for some of these
10172s other teams team 12 also in the area
10174s starting to drift a little bit closer
10176s having seen that b ref on the map and
10178s knowing that a fight had gone on down
10181s team seven ever so quietly stalking team
10185s number four waiting for team four and
10187s six to take this fight before they make
10189s their presence known R of yank going to
10191s be spawning right in between all of
10193s these teams everyone drawn out from the
10195s woodwork looking to play for the
10197s positioning of holding themselves onto
10199s the portal the Transformer team knowing
10200s that they need to go for it considering
10201s they're still on Blue did they manage to
10204s go out it looks like they actually got
10206s bullied into using the karumi ultimate
10209s early and that is devastating for the
10211s Transformer team it means that they're
10213s probably not going to be able to put
10214s themselves into
10215s real of Yang and we're actually going to
10217s be seeing team 12 coming in with a Viper
10219s ultimate looking to lock any player down
10221s Raven I don't think anyone went through
10222s the portal yeah I think it was just pure
10225s assassination plays from Miss H from
10227s apf's plays Tam all was going to be
10228s invested they double teada all again but
10230s adward with that monk ultimate
10232s responding in gets a singular grab but
10235s APF seems going to be able to get to
10236s safety and Port out but now kilaa and
10239s Casper's team up in here q&t looking for
10242s the kill but Casper is going to get
10244s blown up the Third third party and
10246s threat of APF team still lurking in the
10248s shadows able to range and get that kill
10251s but no one's out of the woodwork still
10253s Harem team adward Allen the Transformer
10255s team in the center of a siphon and
10258s attack on tit y all can be invested and
10261s now Casper's team is going to get the
10263s short end of the stick getting
10265s absolutely deleted right now but now
10267s sin's team showing up with the red buff
10270s coming out of the portal they're ready
10272s for some blood they're ready for some
10274s action give us some kills we got a
10275s second life we're willing to invest
10277s right now they're trying to lock someone
10278s down and look at this composition you
10280s wanted it you got it we got hottie Tessa
10285s bar oh this is actually devastating I've
10288s run into so many uh teams in Duos when
10292s they run Hardy and Tessa because it
10294s means that you just can't Dodge out of
10295s that massive Wombo Combo the triple
10297s charge of that Hardy ultimate does so
10300s much damage and if you get locked in to
10303s either that F Stager off of the Cannon
10305s or the Tesa ultimate CC it's just game
10308s over Raven it really is that how the
10310s ultimate does so much damage it's also
10313s incredibly mobile as well so you don't
10315s have to worry about being countered by
10316s something like that to mult Ultimate cuz
10317s you can just fly out over the top of it
10320s all the way up into the maximum Sky Box
10322s so you don't even have to worry about
10322s you all CU you also just out distance it
10325s I cannot wait to see how this team are
10328s going to be putting this into the mix F2
10331s V2 so burning fire tick damage as well
10334s as her is trying to find any entrance
10336s that he can with this pord looking to
10338s just chunk down some of these players
10340s they still have that Vilan bird M so
10341s they're going to get to play as
10342s aggressive as they want ultimate not
10344s online just yet but her is going to use
10346s that F2 to be able to disengage from the
10349s fight doesn't have to worry about the
10350s follow-up damage from the P coming on
10352s through as they're looking to try and
10354s lock some of these players down isolate
10356s them away from their team and it looks
10357s like the horizontal charge click on the
10359s long sword has done exactly that eling
10362s being incredibly low has to worry about
10364s the potential scare coming through from
10366s this Hardy all spit is now up and
10368s available we're yet to get to see it
10371s this is going to be the first Hardy
10373s ultimate in professional tournament nraa
10376s Players har they coming in with the
10377s charged are going to be able to find a
10379s horizontal swing to follow up another
10382s kill miss you off broadcast going to be
10383s able to find a kill with the Yodo V3 but
10386s we are looking at this Hardy we're now
10387s looking to see where that team ran away
10389s with the wuen teleport Hardy incredibly
10392s good with the mobility that's supported
10394s to him at being able to track down where
10396s exactly those Wen teleported players
10398s have gone to is going to look to cut
10400s them off on Temple sees APF taking a
10402s little bit too long to shop Glide and I
10405s going to be invested so he's going to be
10406s able to come back in with the charged
10407s are looking to try and break away from
10409s the Viper ultimate that sence meaning
10411s that he's not going to be able to use
10412s the golden Focus to escape his ultimate
10414s is potentially going to be have to use
10415s to allow him to disengage the triple
10417s charge golden Focus starts to come on
10419s through and this is the Hardy in motion
10422s that we get to see one swing two swing
10424s two St is still available to the Hardy
10427s one now going to be used that fire Tak
10429s damage off of the back of it doing so
10432s much as well Yodo ultimate going to or
10434s Yodo F2 going to be invested to dodge
10437s around the Hardy and catch him on the
10439s golden Focus second activation and as
10442s fun as it is to see hardi one thing he's
10444s missing Raven is damage reduction on the
10446s gold cuz he just got face tanked the V2
10449s Viper is just so much to deal with for
10451s HTI this was this is my worry that uh
10454s one of these teammates needs to be some
10456s type of countered Viper I think the only
10458s vulnerability he has right now is some
10460s type of teada shove into Tami whisp or
10463s the V2 plus Yodo ultimate you saw right
10466s there that even though HTI survived the
10468s initial burst his ability to influence
10471s the fight is super limited the second
10472s that Yodo Al does come down he doesn't
10474s really get any type of Defense from it
10476s he's not a a juggernaut just going
10478s through it like the Yodo uh Yodo Al is
10480s there's very few abilities that actually
10482s stop Yodo from continuing her slashes
10484s and even though he was getting some
10486s damage and he most likely I think if a
10488s little bit earlier in the timing with
10490s the fa ultimate they would have got more
10491s value but because of that V2 silence it
10494s becomes very very risky running their
10496s current setup Tessa Faria and hottie
10500s it's not at all a very def uh defensive
10502s composition maybe you get away with a
10504s well time V3 to help out your teammates
10507s but right there I was excited to see it
10509s I was hoping that they all in with a
10510s bunch of ultimates but hesitation to
10513s play Just one more Focus attack or one
10516s more a Parry attm can be the difference
10519s between your team winning the actual
10521s fight versus just losing outright and
10523s we're seeing um just why a lot of these
10527s compositions that we talk about siphon
10528s Transformers Attack on Titan have been
10530s part of the nraa meta for two years this
10533s composition basically doesn't let you
10535s play the game so even though you have
10536s this great beautiful plan setup it
10538s doesn't matter missu lqing APF some of
10541s the goats of the game just showing up
10544s and just limiting any of this new
10546s experimental stuff now hopefully we see
10549s more hottie play I think with numza uh
10553s and Harem running it I think hopefully
10556s more teams will will do it I know uh the
10560s one composition that we saw that was
10562s very uh good was the the anti-
10564s Transformer com with the Faria Yan Yodo
10567s now that com has been uh used in the
10570s actual Jacob scrims right now we're
10572s seeing missu roll up to Edward Allen
10574s another MOS bit of a fight multi three
10576s teams here again we got little sheep's
10579s team and adward Allen all diving in
10581s fireflies all around this now missu is
10583s looking for the R&B trying to get
10584s something going onto the very vulnerable
10587s Viper Great Space control from missu
10590s creating this opportunity now adwards
10592s all's getting cannibalized by these two
10593s teams adward down the monk of their team
10596s the heart of the team is down missu
10598s still has his ultimate online wants to
10600s buy some time wants this usan to get
10602s someone low so he can come in find an
10603s opening
10605s coming with the grapple it looks like
10606s little sheep team very disciplined on
10608s the outside doesn't want to
10610s overcommit looking just for the
10612s stragglers full cool Downs though on
10614s this attack on tying they get to decide
10616s who is getting assassinated here with
10618s the V2 is going to be coming out and now
10620s with the prry flin going to get taken
10622s down but the port beautiful Port from
10625s Little sheep's team knowing that they
10626s were losing that situation their wuen
10629s able to line a sight and Pop That wuen
10631s Port dodging the V2 Silence from the
10633s Viper and that's the second realm of
10636s Yang that has spawned up and that's the
10638s second time that we've seen a team walk
10639s away for free because everyone else just
10641s comes out to grief the other potential
10644s entrance talking about griefing that
10646s Noel zone is definitely going to be
10647s griefing a lot of these players making
10649s it incredibly hard for this Transformer
10651s team to be able to find these grabs cat
10653s was able to find one slam has been able
10656s to find another grab no way try hard
10658s gets caught around the corner and goes
10661s down to another double grab ski the only
10666s surviving player currently for team
10668s number eight on that Wen doesn't have
10671s the ultimate available to be able to
10673s Port the bodies out and this time around
10675s Raven I don't think team eight are going
10677s to get away with the revive to be able
10680s to turn this game around going back
10684s however to that Hardy composition I
10686s wonder if we're going to see either the
10687s crutch of group heal Advanced heal or
10690s that Zing being used considering he gets
10692s so much Mobility but when you're running
10694s with a Tessa it's a lot harder to be
10696s able to capitalize because that hard is
10697s in such a forward aggressive position no
10699s one else is really within space to be
10702s able not just to defend him but also
10704s capitalize off of the Stagger that his
10706s ultimate grants you as we're going to be
10707s having a look at an attack on Titan
10709s traditional team no tasso just Yodo
10711s triple uh Focus Jade coming through from
10715s APS with that windy Trinity on the fan
10719s throwing them out just trying to find
10721s any damage that he can takes a little
10723s bit of damage from that usan stag but
10724s they're still going to be able to
10726s sustain and win the fight out overall so
10728s much cleave damage coming through from
10730s both him and missu with that legendary
10733s weapon F really incredibly terrifying I
10736s feel like so many people talk about
10738s things like the R&B and how quickly it
10739s comes out and the fact that you're able
10741s to use it for things like touch of death
10742s combas with teada that windy Trinity
10745s even though it's purple it does so much
10748s damage and just like all of the other
10749s moves on the fan Raven it comes out
10751s incredibly quickly it's also a lot
10752s harder to be able to sort of anticipate
10754s Parry something like the um in
10757s comparison to something like the wind SP
10759s right because you see the tornadoes
10760s you're like okay cool they're coming at
10762s me incredibly slowly I'm either going to
10763s just tap Dodge or be out of range
10766s entirely but windy Trinity comes out so
10769s quickly it's so easy especially in Tri
10771s situations to be able to catch players
10773s on aw yeah it's basically like a a
10774s slingshot long sword wave where you just
10777s when you hit someone with it it's just
10778s like you're in a washing machine you
10780s just get slurped back and forth you're
10781s like what is happening plus the AOE
10784s damage it's just cleaving everyone down
10786s that was actually DPC q that APF team
10789s rolls over but uh it looks like APF team
10792s is absolutely scaled out of their mind
10793s and now we're going to see new new and
10797s just as a Duo Left Alive fighting
10800s against just one player from I believe
10803s this is um adward Allen's solo player
10807s they end up getting 2V1 right there but
10808s they don't want to force the fight
10810s there's a trio seam lurking in the
10812s background getting hit by by that red
10815s mushroom too they definitely don't want
10816s to fight after this when the do tick
10818s starts happening but over here at
10820s celesia q&t kill and crew Casper
10823s stucking a tem popping the temo but it
10826s doesn't look like killer was able to get
10827s out he just gets absolutely deleted by
10830s little sheep seam it's it's the r& be on
10833s that fan like he tries to go and
10835s disengage for the SM ultimate and he
10837s just gets grabbed back before he can
10838s escape for the
10839s Windle it's going to be everywhere
10841s during Worlds the fan the new weapon
10843s just long sword has been a staple in
10846s trios meow forever and I would say it's
10848s the first weapon that now support
10850s players and that anyone running long
10851s sword uh it's easy if you have to pick
10853s between the same Rarity you're almost
10855s always going fan instead now the long
10857s sword does have a little bit of
10858s advantage that it's only one hit and
10860s technically you can dodge the first hit
10863s of fan and then Parry the second hit so
10865s you don't have to commit as hard versus
10866s a fan but since it's so fast and since
10869s we run so little stamina in trios it's a
10872s lot harder to do uh than in solos in
10875s solos you have full stamina you have
10877s almost four Dodges in trios you got like
10880s two and a half you got to make your
10881s decision nice and clean yeah like you
10884s get hit by that R&B it's not just the
10886s damage and the speed that's the problem
10888s it's the fact that your positioning is
10890s disrupted by it because it literally
10892s just grabs you back in to that spacing
10895s it's essentially budget Hardy F1 if
10899s budget hottie F1 that's that's just rude
10902s to the fan you don't don't care
10903s parenting the hottie F1 is better better
10906s oh better F1 okay better better hot's F1
10909s is absolute buns that is a four fun move
10912s maybe in the future if they Nerf it but
10914s the start up of the F1 it's it's it's
10916s not a combo break it's it's like you are
10918s forced to take the F2 because like you
10920s said the the startup golden focus on the
10923s F1 is too slow like a lot of the time
10925s you can't use it even to soft combo
10927s break yeah so you're forced to just take
10929s the F2 to be able to break out of some
10931s of those combo strings otherwise
10933s unfortunately you can Mash your F
10935s ability all you want but if you want to
10937s to a touch of death combination you're
10939s not going to be able to do what what
10942s excites me about this is we've seen a
10943s lot of end games I I was watching you
10945s and R casting the event earlier we're
10947s seeing at least 15 to 20 man end games
10949s everyone playing positioning playing the
10952s chess match of holding up high grounds
10954s playing the range game and waiting for
10956s someone to engage I saw a ton of great
10958s positional control using those cannons
10961s using the burn damage to Force action
10963s cuz cuz the rule of THB for endgame is
10965s the team first to ult is usually first
10967s to lose and how do you get another team
10969s to Ultimate through range pressure
10971s through your whole team holding a pocket
10973s Cannon and putting out that damage that
10975s missu coming in with the F2 what the and
10978s the assault burning his way through
10980s triple charge threat going to be able to
10982s chop in half this Viper with the triple
10984s charge but he's going to get taken down
10986s leading the charge little sheep
10987s responding in kind with this and now
10990s lqing forced to pop the ultimate but is
10992s it too late Port is going to be coming
10994s out it is Celestial we got a lot of
10997s buildings to hide in great Port coming
10999s out from Seven the save his
11003s team oh it's so unfortunate cuz the F2
11005s is perfectly used to be able to secure
11007s that kill but because you invested so
11009s early on you don't have it to be able to
11011s peel off the attention that comes
11013s through from all of the other players in
11015s the area because all of these players
11016s are grouped up incredibly close to each
11019s other so it's not just about forcing
11021s ultimates from the other side it's also
11023s if you actually take a fight another
11025s team is going to show up and they're not
11027s going to put themselves into that
11028s forward position where they can get get
11030s caught out by a third party right
11032s they're going to go in with ranged
11033s they're not going to come in with
11034s Mechanicals they're not going to come in
11035s with mow they're literally just going to
11037s chunk away at you from AAS so there is
11040s literally no counter except things like
11042s the wuen windwall that we're going to be
11044s seeing 13 players left alive celestra
11047s soon to be outside of this Zone team 12
11051s potentially going to be running into
11052s team two who are going to be making it
11054s pretty costly for them to be able to
11057s reposition muu has been brought back by
11059s the rest of their players the team to
11062s know that they're in the area and
11063s there's the range projectile exchange
11066s that we have come to expect in this lull
11068s phase as we were talking about a little
11070s bit earlier on in the broadcast astral
11072s cup feels like after all of these weeks
11074s of play the players have now returned to
11076s that more traditional tempo of nraa and
11079s that means that we get these more
11081s downtime phases where as you said raven
11083s everyone sort of bullies each other but
11085s no one hard committed it very much is
11087s just you know kicking each other's feet
11089s under the table but no one actually
11091s wanting to throw a punch yeah leading
11093s into these end games the reason why in
11095s in pro league uh a lot of teams it's a
11098s little bit more stacked in endgame it's
11099s just a lot of teams accept the fact that
11101s they cannot go Yang uh because the Yang
11103s depletion will put them in such a tough
11105s spot they they won't be able to uh to
11107s leverage points but inside na there are
11109s a lot of teams that believe in their
11110s skill and believe in their ability to
11112s win inside Yang so no matter what that
11114s means at least out of the the two sets
11117s of yangs four teams will get deleted
11119s from the lobby no matter what and
11120s usually a fifth team gets picked off so
11122s now on a firefly day with the extra
11125s horsepower of fireflies and ultimates
11127s you're seeing a lot of these teams going
11128s down but seeing DCR cat showing up
11132s this end game no surprise these and
11134s DCR went to backto back worlds now they
11137s didn't make it this year unfortunately
11139s with lzq but they're still hard at it
11142s this is going to be their last season
11143s here actually in the states for the
11146s first time we are losing a lot of the
11148s top na team so right here folks this is
11150s the last time you're going to see some
11152s of the greats do it here on the na
11154s server they'll probably still continue
11155s to keep compete without within CN but
11158s they won't be doing it here anymore on
11160s that traditional
11162s Transformers DCR has played every single
11165s role for this team um he's played he's
11167s played monk he's played he actually
11169s never played Yan but he usually switches
11171s between Monk and karumi super super
11173s talented player he's always been uh
11176s their General strategist for this team
11179s they're their lead in-game leader
11180s sometimes but overall all their strats
11182s is run through DCR and formally game to
11187s hard as well now with 13 people alive
11190s and going into this end game this is a
11192s tough spot for Transformers to get value
11194s now normally Transformers they love
11196s getting those nice line of sights able
11198s to get grabs from multiple different
11199s teams but with every single Corner
11201s potentially having a Viper with silence
11203s come coming off and not having good line
11205s of sights it's going to be tough for
11207s them to eek out even more kills from
11209s this they're already up to six kills but
11211s ideally Transformers wants to close out
11213s this lobby with at least five to six
11215s more kills considering they are an
11218s endgame comp but celestra not the best
11221s spot now what the best spot Yodo that is
11224s a CQB Warrior that F3 her ability
11227s dictates just so much space in this and
11229s then the Yodo slashes going through the
11230s wall having this exact spot is going to
11234s be dicey I imagine it's going to be
11236s going to heal off there's not going to
11238s no one's going to force action right
11239s here we saw a lot of this play even
11242s within the J cups teams holding long
11244s swords and in this case fans and just
11246s throwing folks attacks over and over at
11248s every single window if you come into
11249s here there's a good chance that F3 Yoto
11251s is going to clock up the door and you're
11253s not going anywhere I'm sure there's
11256s probably ski is still alive there's a
11257s couple solos and Duos that will get
11259s picked off transitioning to this L game
11262s yeah and I mean at the moment everyone
11263s is waiting for that transition into late
11266s game everyone waiting for the zone to
11268s start to move these players out of
11270s position no one wanting to make that
11271s move first and give up some of these
11274s safe spots team 12 not actually going to
11276s be spotted by team number new new
11279s running directly right past and they're
11282s going to be very happy about that cuz if
11283s it does go to that full Zone claps it's
11286s all about these vipers and these Yos the
11289s wuen teleport yes can be used for that
11291s ey frame and the wind can come clutch to
11293s be able to save yourself from
11295s disengagements and going down when your
11297s health is incredibly low to a ranged
11298s shot but the Viper ultimate to set the
11301s Yodo ultimate up as that zone collapses
11303s and you can find full value from the
11305s Stagger off of that V3 ending is going
11308s to be what really dictates who's able to
11310s walk away the wind there's ski actually
11312s on the w and knock out side of the Zone
11314s having to use that ultimate to be able
11316s to reposition himself back onto the
11319s sidelines transform his team putting
11321s themselves onto The High Ground at least
11322s you do have the jumps to work with if
11324s you get knocked off of that area but it
11327s is going to be using a lot of that
11329s ultimate duration to keep that position
11331s Dreadful whale also coming through we've
11333s got the wind spout on that fan now being
11336s invested as team number five basically
11338s carve their name into that rooftop
11340s location giving away the soldies that
11342s they have so that no one really wants to
11344s pressure this monk into using that
11345s ultimate early they've been able to
11347s figure out where some of these teams are
11348s around the sidelines of the zone and
11350s actually forcing them out towards more
11352s of the open to try and catch them out as
11354s they have to reposition when the Zone
11356s starts to push them off of these angles
11358s putting themselves into more open space
11359s and allowing cat to have more
11360s opportunities to look for some of these
11363s grabs but unfortunately while that monk
11365s can sit on The High Ground like you've
11367s already pointed out Raven if a Yoda was
11369s able to get into the building below him
11371s she can use that ultimate look directly
11374s up and still catch onto the monk without
11376s fear of being grabbed out of the
11379s ultimate once the first golden slash has
11381s been used flamer however is going to
11383s make make it incredibly hard for some of
11384s these players to be able to hold that
11386s position we're going to see everyone as
11388s a result who isn't this Transformer team
11391s put themselves onto the building
11393s directly below and there is nothing that
11395s the Transformer team can do except give
11397s up that High Ground spacing and drop
11399s onto them we're going to see DRC K
11402s coming in with that Dreadful whale
11403s trying to pick up some of these players
11406s not going to be able to find a lock down
11407s Dragon also starting to come on out
11410s players looking to tussle up to be able
11412s to hold these positions when that zone
11413s fully collapses in Yoda going to be
11415s using that F to be able to buy
11417s themselves a safe space one player goes
11419s down poison Splash actually going to be
11421s activated off of the body cat's going to
11423s get teed by the karumi to be brought
11426s back might have to use the ultimate
11427s immediately but that's going to be
11429s inside the buing Raven and you're not
11431s going to be able to get your way through
11433s the windows this monke is about to be
11435s brought back up and immediately go down
11437s again this is travesty there it is it
11440s happens again team two allow the re surv
11443s because they know they're going to get
11445s another free kill off of the back of it
11447s now everything is going to be kicking on
11450s off scar coming through from team number
11452s two to be able to keep themselves inside
11454s this building for as long as possible
11456s and make sure that no one is able to
11457s evict them from that space everyone
11460s trying to dodge outside to be able to
11462s put themselves into some more open areas
11463s so they don't have to worry about the
11464s fireti damage coming through from some
11465s of these cannons and the flamers as
11467s we're now down to nine players remaining
11470s team 12 waiting below just happy to wait
11473s at everybody else playing around all of
11475s this aggression and taking away all of
11477s these eliminations Viper ultimate going
11480s to be invested flashl trying to set it
11482s up taking so much damage coming through
11484s from team number two s get stunned
11486s couldn't coming with the Yan ultimate
11488s going to be able to find some damage
11490s connecting onto team 27 and taking him
11493s down with the spear and it's actually
11495s going to be team 12 they played the L
11498s con they waited for everyone around them
11500s on The High Ground around those
11502s buildings to take the fights themselves
11505s while team 12 set themselves up in a
11507s safe little corner and sustain through
11510s everything that happened around them it
11511s is literally the epitome of the this is
11514s fine GIF and they win the long con off
11517s of the back of it yeah missu APF lqing
11521s they play it perfectly fully by the book
11524s textbook play staying in the buildings
11526s controlling their space now looking at
11528s the highlights of the game this is the
11530s the new comp with mushroom DPC Q Plan B
11533s and jown world team using a new com I
11537s know uh DPC throughout the whole season
11540s was one of the few teams who actually
11541s run Faria Godless their igl loves that
11544s character it's it's more of a cfort pick
11546s and finally Faria is buffed and we're
11547s going to see more of it little sheep's
11548s team coming in with the perfect third
11551s party we saw Lil sheep's team absolutely
11554s demolish the world uh the world Champs
11556s DCR a little bit of an
11558s overextension from cat inside that
11559s building and end game unfortunate for
11561s them now this was the the mosh bit just
11564s south of Sunwing multiple teams over
11566s here APF going crazy with the Assassins
11568s Lodge Great pickoffs from them getting
11572s to that end game and again continuing we
11574s saw a little bit of this hottie play
11576s from uh solo harim and numza
11579s unfortunately not able to get I'm
11581s wondering why they just ran it there and
11582s didn't Al and we see uh Team Intel
11585s versus de uh Coon's team end up not
11589s getting so much value from that no old
11591s zone now this stacked up game in the
11594s building 12 missus team on the low
11597s ground they were low ground Warriors
11598s ultimate low as we call in Battle Royale
11601s just absolutely farming thriving feeding
11603s off of B CAD they DCR actually goes for
11606s a play right now for to do a healing
11608s Circle through the wall unfortunately
11609s it's still not enough the burst damage
11611s coming from those well time folks
11612s attacks ends up just feeding more kill
11615s kills the little sheep team multiple
11618s kills great play from Little Sheep team
11620s but they mess up right here right at the
11622s right at the end game they just hold
11624s their alts too long and missu seam comes
11626s up from the depths from the bottom from
11629s the basement they pop that V2 ultimate
11631s and there's nothing they can do at that
11633s point there's just so much damage coming
11635s out from missu team from the bottom and
11638s team challenging over the top
11640s it doesn't matter missus team on the
11642s bottom cleaning up everyone who lands
11644s and closing out that game with 22 kills
11648s just a massive game coming out from Miss
11653s team now looking at the leader
11655s boards a little I me that's going to
11657s shuffle a couple of things cuz 22 kills
11661s in one game on an attack on Titan
11664s composition as well like it's a really
11666s good Lobby that they pick into as well
11668s CU we don't really see uh all that many
11670s sand siphon compositions yeah they
11672s jumped up into second place yeah first
11676s place Intel try hard SE at 79.3 still
11678s holding their lead not the best game for
11680s them but still a solid consistent game U
11682s SE missu APF lqing 67.4 Billy Billy
11686s smile um that is DCR and Cat at
11691s 53.9 TI almost tied with gr little sheep
11695s team at 53.8 Crazy Cow new new
11697s dominating the qualifying rounds but in
11699s this finals with the strongest teams in
11702s the lobby not showing the same amount of
11704s dominance but still doing well at 42
11706s points DPC q without king without
11709s Godless they have xiaoen Zai one of
11712s their new player pickups four worlds
11714s filling in getting that practice in
11715s before Worlds at 41.6 the top six
11718s rounding out now sins team at
11721s 35.3 climbing up we saw them with the
11726s the hottie picked didn't get as much
11728s value as you would like they did win a
11730s fight in I don't know if they won Yang
11731s for free or they won a fight but They
11732s Came Out Swinging a little bit still
11735s working out the beta test you know the
11737s hottie beta test not coming out as
11739s strong as they would like but we shall
11743s see what happens in the
11746s future well talking about the future
11748s you'll have to fast forward about two
11750s minutes time to be able to get to see

12047s for the competition for the love of nraa
12050s now going into this last game what do
12052s you think Moxy are we're gonna see a lot
12053s of siphon are we gonna see more hottie
12055s or we GNA see Transformers showing up
12057s again I mean I want to say that we get
12059s to see more Hardy especially because Hof
12061s has a lot of verticality like when the
12063s map literally first released everyone
12065s thought there's no way we see
12066s Transformers on this team because of the
12068s amount of percentage that that was for
12070s final Zone to be based on that
12071s verticality but since then monk has been
12073s buffed to be able to have the ability to
12075s jump which does lessen a lot of that
12078s pressure on Hol final zones falling into
12080s the favor of Monk setups but s siphon
12084s just has all of your bases covered right
12085s no matter where you take a fight whether
12087s it's in the Overworld whether it's in RM
12088s of Yang it's just it always has value
12092s 24/7 whether you've got the ultimates
12094s available whether you're just going into
12096s a fight with base abilities whether
12097s you're trying to survive a third party
12099s because you have things like the tal
12101s whisp and you have the teada F where you
12103s can actually punch a lot of players if
12105s they do commit onto those blue focuses
12107s the zip has the F1 to buy everyone the
12109s space and health to be able to sustain a
12112s disengage of a third party after your
12113s ultimates have won through there's no
12115s surprise that we see so much of sans
12117s siphon in the current meta but at the
12119s moment we're not actually getting to see
12120s a s siphon composition we're getting to
12122s see an attacking Titan composition going
12123s up against that deada and actually
12126s finding the kills all three players of
12129s team number 10 just jumping on the
12130s players of sin and not allowing them any
12134s down time to be able to come in with
12135s those abilities or both the ultimates to
12138s peel for each other and they just lose
12139s to numbers and
12141s staga yeah great play off spawn a ton of
12144s people here at plume Castle q&t Cleaning
12146s of little sheep team now they still not
12148s over we still have one more team lurking
12152s on the top R Bells everywhere little
12153s sheep in a 1v3 situation is just going
12155s to get cleaned up very clean play coming
12157s from q&t but Yesa Godless up top lurking
12161s in the Shadows looting up right now will
12165s they take this fight now normally on
12167s Hollow Roth like you were pointing out
12169s this sand siphon the most dominant com
12171s it's strong early game it's strong mid
12172s game it's strong Ed game the only way to
12175s counter it is that F3 Viper with Yodo
12178s ultimate but you got one play one shot
12181s and if you miss it it's just not going
12183s to go well for you now over in the South
12185s metab it looks like Co was going to win
12187s it out pushing newbi off of the metab
12190s lbe metab has some of the best loot in
12192s the game but we're back in the action at
12195s Plum's Castle q&t investing in versus
12198s yea team on the floor we have another
12201s team only bear on the top road so
12204s finding out kichi unfortunately going to
12206s get isolated and taken down from this
12208s Fair monk Tami we're seeing the sandc
12213s comp come back with adward I actually
12215s got to play this with adward son back
12217s earlier this year but the Tam is going
12219s to be invested great sword coming out
12221s from Omni bear B lmb absolutely
12224s shredding his opponent in the followup
12226s that Tello just so much pressure but the
12229s Perry coming out from Yan Le finding his
12232s way out of this he doesn't want to go
12233s out so easily
12235s unfortunately he will be going down only
12237s Bears pressure the damage from that
12239s great sword too much to overcome unable
12242s to fight but q&t able to pick up Kishi
12245s in the background
12247s able in all of that scuffle that mess
12250s able to pick up their te now kilaw still
12253s has his second life but unfortunately
12255s for them they're going to run into a
12256s rotating hunting DPC Q Plan B
12259s xiaoai hot on their Trail Crosshair
12262s locked on the Kishi Kishi still has
12264s ultimate up but that Yodo Al is going to
12266s be invested nothing a teada can do
12269s except try to dodge it he tries to use
12272s the shoves to heal himself but it's too
12274s much Moon bang going to be invested
12276s Mushroom in Hot Pursuit of Casper will
12278s Casper be able to dodge wee use that
12281s move him to his advantage he's caught
12282s out in the open though has his fan needs
12284s to get back to the building unable to
12287s Great cross up with the fan getting that
12290s stagger and securing the K kill onto Q
12293s Casper I really hope we get to see the
12296s fair among monk composition go up
12298s against the F Yodo and hang composition
12302s inside realm of Yang onlyi bet in that t
12304s High transformation going to be able to
12305s find a grab yoga taking a lot of damage
12308s the zip ultimate going to kick in and
12309s keep himself topped up and alive off of
12312s that repeating crossbow damage coming
12314s through from the rest of Ona's teammates
12316s as the monk still looking to try and
12318s find these players yoga getting hounded
12320s and harassed by the fer and toal to try
12324s to put him into the open so on can look
12327s for that grab but he's going to go out
12328s of range in a matter of moments only by
12330s outside of the ultimate now going to be
12332s vulnerable because the other two players
12334s are forward chasing after that player
12337s who was outside of the monk now we're
12339s going to see that fach being in invested
12343s coming on for Reverb having already gone
12345s down so mul whis going to be invested
12348s from yogur to keep themselves AAL trying
12349s to find the connection will be able to
12351s stagger lock one player swapping over to
12353s the pistol so they can find the kill
12355s connection but DRX unfortunately going
12358s down in the meantime the T now getting
12360s grapple cancel throwing at the lmv on
12362s that fan looking to maybe buy themselves
12365s a little bit of spacing off of the
12367s Stager from that to try to disengage but
12369s the F had already been invested to try
12371s and appeal for his Fallen teammate that
12373s has not cycled back online so he's not
12375s able to use it to break out of all of
12377s the Stagger coming through from the
12378s players of Team seven and the tul is
12380s very swiftly dealt with I really hope we
12384s get to see this Tian High composition do
12386s well my fear is that what you're going
12389s to be seeing as a sort of quote unquote
12391s support play for this team is just more
12393s outwards aggression right F and me going
12395s to be playing incredibly aggressive the
12397s only real defensive tool they have
12398s outside of the monk just using that
12400s ultimate to just try and Zone people
12403s away with the threat of it is that tul
12405s ultimate but if you're forced to use the
12407s tul ultimate to save your among from the
12409s ranged Weaponry you're then not going to
12411s have it for the third party so they are
12413s going to have to be very very careful
12415s that the fights that they do take are
12416s finished quickly or they back out of
12418s fights that take too long because if
12420s they have to throw all three ultimates
12421s in to keep that monk alive they're going
12424s to go down to another team that rolls up
12426s in the same spacing yeah sand Mac was
12429s actually my favorite composition I've
12431s played in the
12432s as a support player playing faia and
12435s using that V3 we didn't I don't I'm not
12437s sure if adward is actually V3 cuz he's
12439s supposed to pop the ultimate to save the
12441s monk as he D transforms so essentially
12443s on that team you get two Transformations
12445s as Monk and it's up to the faia to build
12448s up her ultimate while you're in her
12450s actual uh ult Mech now endgame is really
12453s where that composition shines because
12455s you're able to hold your ground using
12456s range a ton it looks like new new is
12458s over here at yon ruins looking to hunt
12460s out there to kada super stack purple
12463s armor looking for fulin but he's going
12466s to make his way out of here able to get
12468s into the trees but he's going to run
12469s into q&t hunting the edge of Zone as
12472s well in the tree line now flaan going to
12474s be fought over by these two teams who's
12476s going to be able to pick up the kill Q
12478s doesn't yet see that newu was in Hot
12480s Pursuit initially they have to be
12482s careful not to get caught out by
12484s surprise it looks like they're posturing
12485s up they realize a full another trios
12487s here now newu going to be backing off
12489s right now now adward and crew also show
12492s up another mosit in place now this is
12494s not a really good spot for Transformers
12496s line of sight trees everywhere it's not
12499s really in your face composition you want
12500s to dominate at that mid-range you want
12502s to get a ton of that range pressure and
12504s with Yang possibly coming up in the
12506s future I I want adward team to back off
12508s here and to see CU back in early this
12511s year siphon was getting beaten by this
12514s sand Mech team it used to be so dominant
12515s on this comment looks like APF team with
12517s the moon Bane APF with the bu sword
12520s looking for some damage down have
12522s already into that usan on it looks like
12523s Plan B is going to cut out get caught
12525s out 2v3 situation it looks like we're in
12527s full disengage full Retreat we got to
12529s get out of here xiaoan Z putting on the
12531s Nikes trying to kite it out of here but
12533s APF sees him switches over to the Dual
12536s halberds one of the fastest weapons in
12538s the game dual halberts just added behind
12542s fan that R&B those folks attacks just so
12544s oppressive Jon Zai trying to make his
12546s way to these buttery rocks trying to
12547s find a good spot but the Parry is going
12549s to come out from Miss
12552s now nowhere left to go xiaoni is going
12555s to get taken down and miss you lqing APF
12559s going to continue their dominance well
12561s RL yangs as we saw are soon to be
12563s spawning up whether or not these teams
12565s are actually going to take them well
12567s we'll have to wait and see last game
12570s everyone did gravitate towards the
12572s positioning of those BS but just griefed
12576s each other and swis are incredibly good
12579s at being able to grief the entrances of
12581s the portal you throw them out you're
12582s able to catch one player in that CC and
12585s a lot of the time the team who actually
12586s gets that player wisped are not wanting
12588s to fully commit into going into the
12590s portal in case two of that players are
12592s able to get through and that third
12593s player gets left behind I get my wish
12597s Raven I get my wish we're going to get
12599s to see Team seven with that F at to and
12602s monk going up against team eight try
12605s hard it's going to be Oni bear coming in
12607s with the cannon shots coming fori just
12609s dropping in the meter dump from the to
12612s Zone the monk further back a looking to
12615s try and find a little bit more pressure
12617s as well with range shots of their own as
12619s no one's really forced a hard commitment
12621s just yet try hard trying to close up the
12623s distance is going to get teed by his
12626s karumi to be able to hold that
12627s aggression a little bit longer now we've
12630s got the first monk out on the field and
12631s adward is actually going to be the one
12632s that for the
12634s transformation but L is the mech try
12637s hards able to find one grab the tul
12639s ultimate infested but he's still a able
12641s to do enough damage off of the slam ad
12644s do inside the Yan ultimate going to be
12647s able to follow up these slams only b
12649s gets one kick to connect and stagger the
12652s usan continuously but it's going to be
12654s so much damage and pressure coming
12656s through on the monk the grab and punch
12659s onto Oni there so that he's continued to
12661s be staggered out by try hard it is
12662s simply a fre versus one and Oni there is
12667s going to struggle he finds one grab
12669s isn't able to complete the slam using
12670s the F1 on the Bell to play his life a
12673s little bit longer but he's not going to
12674s be able to grief tryhards team ronal
12677s Yang will not time out they'll be able
12679s to dispatch unfortunately the mech monk
12683s earlier than the mech monk was hoping
12685s because that Mech Raven lasted all of
12687s three seconds yeah unfortunate tryhard
12691s just used to be a believer of the sand
12693s Mach saying it was better than
12694s Transformers but with all the new tech
12696s to DCH fario if fario ever ultimates uh
12701s next to a a monk if he's in monk form
12704s already you're always getting DME you're
12706s just going to immediately to get scooped
12707s on the legs and shoved in the back it
12709s doesn't even matter if you turn it
12711s around because the Monk Is So closed the
12713s hand actually goes through your Mech and
12715s Dems you instantly you saw half a second
12718s of me coming up from very no value from
12719s it but Casper and crew on to Coon's team
12723s shs are coming out Kishi on the teada
12726s looking to get some value cre some space
12728s he's crowd controlling cats really
12730s really well but now his taking so much
12732s damage Casper in a last hit situation
12734s they have to be careful it looks like
12735s he's already pop but Kishi getting
12736s pushed off by and with the
12739s double charge going to absolutely melt
12741s Kishi and now Casper in a 1v3 situation
12745s can he find a way looks like he's in a
12747s disengage mode going to use his fence
12748s going to try to get the moves going but
12750s DCR hot on his heels with that P sword
12753s looking for the scale rush but the fence
12754s a nice moves coming out from caser
12756s moving moving around inside the building
12759s outside the building gets the armor
12760s reset
12762s trying to cut noise right now team
12764s doesn't know where he went will they
12765s clear the building right now but
12767s smart enough goes in the gig is up hide
12770s and seek tag you're it Casper with the
12774s dagger trying to make some moves trying
12775s to get out of her nice moves able to
12777s follow up get around the fence and we're
12779s retreating again into another Circle but
12782s team has him staggered right now
12785s can he get away Focus slide coming out
12787s but the lmbb R&B too much damage Casper
12790s able to find his way on the other side
12792s of the fence and again with another
12794s armor reset Gasper with the moves trying
12796s to get away with the double Parry going
12797s to get the stabbing now with the
12799s f1's going to heal up has cas's created
12802s enough space is he going to be able to
12803s break line side get enough distance but
12805s hot on his heels like he can break
12808s line of sight sees exactly where
12810s he's going no grapple distance to Coon's
12813s name though can C make it
12815s away he if he makes it to this building
12818s Moxy he might be able to survive it's
12821s going to be a long shot though I mean
12824s it's going to be an incredibly long shot
12825s given the fact that he's got Yang
12827s depletion so if Casper just tries to out
12830s kite uh this team he's still going to go
12832s out of the lobby all is going to happen
12834s is he denies a kill I mean he is
12837s actually forcing team five into
12839s investing the to much ultimate and
12841s Casper is still alive the V2 going to
12844s kick in and allow Casper to just scour
12847s off of this ballista Tower and try and
12849s keep himself moving at this point surely
12851s he knows he is going to go down to that
12852s Yang depletion and he might just be
12854s trying to play for his life to deny that
12856s potential kill he's interrupted before
12858s he can find the scare Rush the charge
12860s lmv on the dagger allowing him to try
12863s and break free and yeah there it is
12865s Casper Scare rushing off of ballist
12867s tower putting himself into the Zone
12869s corruption TI damage he knows the gig is
12871s up or actually he might be able to find
12873s the heal reset but all that's going to
12875s do is byy himself the time to burn
12878s slowly out to that young depletion cuz
12880s he's either going to walk directly in
12882s onto team five and have to one V3 or
12886s he's going to not be able to find
12888s another team in time 34 seconds
12891s remaining on the clock that currently is
12893s Casper's life and it's going to not be a
12896s very fun half a minute for this zp in
12898s the slightest oh I see that wait a
12901s second hello this is potentially a save
12906s for Casper did he spot him does he know
12909s he spotted him okay 13 seconds left for
12912s Casper to be able to find this kill he
12913s can't get caught up in the carousel from
12915s the long sword he's got to play
12917s defensive and reactive and you can see
12920s the hands are off of the keyboard Casper
12922s accepts his fate he goes down to miss
12926s you oh no if that fight had started out
12930s any differently Raven he might have had
12932s the time to be able to find the kill but
12933s he gets locked into the long sword combo
12935s and there's just simply not enough time
12937s to be able to find the turnaround yes
12939s it's not an ideal situation ation for
12941s Casper there out of all the players that
12943s you run into it's tough when you run
12945s into missu in the last 1 V one missu
12948s barely not making it the worlds he
12950s actually got fourth in Grand finals but
12952s known as one of the strongest solo 1V
12955s one players unfortunately Casper sees
12958s the situation bets it all on red it
12961s doesn't work out for him miss you able
12963s to clutch it out find that Soul Bloom
12965s Off cast right now he's working his way
12967s to get that rest that coins building up
12969s slowly it looks like Yesa Godless and
12973s crew looking to assassinate this Yang
12976s and unfortunately for tryhard it's them
12978s that they find the silence going to come
12980s out onto the Kumi can ski survive this
12983s try hard coming in with the Bell great
12985s Bell from try hard denying all the folks
12987s attacks a healing Circle able to come
12989s out from the silence and now try hard
12991s team fighting back ad in the usot
12993s peeling this
12995s Viper can they find the opening they're
12998s not able to they're a try te able to
13001s survive the pressure but now going into
13003s the side G one person R down numza solo
13006s har in a 2v3 but the Stagger is coming
13009s out the Phoenix flaps just too much
13012s damage the te all the shoves one more
13015s shvs left for harim and he goes for the
13018s ride of his life and he is going to get
13020s taken down oh teada Stager into Phoenix
13024s into full release of the triple charge P
13027s sword that's not a fun way to go however
13029s try hard cutting back to him he's back
13031s in that mon transformation y trying to
13034s just put a little bit more pressure in
13036s with that long sword has to be careful
13037s that he doesn't get double grab ski
13040s looking for that engagement and
13041s interception so try hard is not going to
13043s get chunk down the F recycling back into
13046s the mix to keep try hard alive he's able
13048s to get himself on top of Yi's body and
13050s find the soul blim reset as well and
13052s team 10 might be losing another player
13055s the grapple cancel into subsequent
13056s followup of the scale Rush on that P
13058s sword into mump coming through from
13061s those nchs into
13063s absolute death absolute evaporation
13067s coming through from teamate and it
13068s really look like when they got griefed
13070s by that attack on Titan team and the
13073s Viper is able to hit that F2 onto the
13075s karumi they would be able to find the
13077s kill but like you said that F1 coming
13080s through from try hard to be able to just
13082s peel the aggression and keep his Ki
13085s alive long enough for the silence to be
13086s able to wear out and then you can cast
13088s the ultimate and keep everyone topped up
13090s and alive because you know even once the
13092s ultimate has burned out having the air
13094s free having the damage struction and the
13096s fact that it still heals when it's
13098s attached to the monk means that that
13100s cycle that traditional rotation of
13103s ultimates that the karumi has to use to
13104s be able to enable the transformation of
13108s the ti High to stick in full that has
13111s now been snapped clean in half because
13113s that F allows the monk to sit in the
13115s ultimate and keep himself in the
13117s ultimate even when the Kumi healing
13119s circle is not up
13121s yeah it's just like you were saying the
13123s clutch play from Tri the presence of
13125s mind the Bell also guards against the
13127s Yodo Al so that yesha's team and Godless
13130s they have the best opener possible that
13132s you can have onto Transformer silencing
13134s the karumi and getting that Yodo Al on
13136s top of her now the ultimate is going to
13138s come out but since it's V1 it doesn't
13139s matter youan all denies that V1 but now
13141s looking over at Coon's steam triple
13143s charge going to be coming out sin with a
13144s ton of momentum onto DCR DCR wants to
13147s fight his way out of this having his
13148s gold F invested V2 is going to be
13150s invested from groomy he can stay alive
13152s for a little bit longer solo eating an
13154s R&B in the back of trying to peel
13157s for DCR but it's looking like sin has
13159s all the momentum on their side numza is
13162s going to get taken down oh no I cast the
13164s curs him DCR was one HP the whole time
13166s and now solo with the F1 is going to
13169s start retreating no Kem is being left
13172s behind as a noble sacrifice herim going
13175s to the South going to be running into
13176s miss you though APF and lqing showing up
13180s to the party
13181s seeing the leftovers and now DCR going
13184s to back off get some of this nice Loot
13187s and it's just so tough to win against
13189s this s and nowhere to go her going to
13192s get picked up by missu by LP APF and
13196s lqing will they take this next fight
13199s though missu does have his teada Al
13201s online posst ring up the loot is good
13204s over here it's looking delicious I
13206s wonder what har had unfortunately for
13208s solo he can make his way possibly find a
13211s resz in the future but for
13213s now going into this end game we have 16
13217s players alive missuse team in contention
13220s for first tryhard team leading on
13224s intel if APF team has a really pop off
13227s game again they're up to 11 kills
13229s already 11 kills now unfortunately for
13233s try hard scene they won't be able to win
13235s any money but this team can miss you
13237s lqing APF they're in here for the big
13239s bucks six ,000 for first place that's a
13242s lot of cheddar Moxy yeah you can see
13245s from the soers that they haven't been
13246s able to upgrade that fire arrows uh sold
13250s to have Target lock enabled but fire
13252s arrow is still doing a lot of damage to
13255s these teada sand siphon compositions
13258s considering when you have that fire tick
13260s you are getting hit by the heal cut and
13263s that is something that the zip suffers
13265s against as opposed to something like the
13267s karumi so it can be really good at being
13270s able to bait these Sun Sion compositions
13272s into throwing out that zip sustain tool
13275s a little bit too early as we're going to
13277s be seeing team 12 I believe missu was
13279s actually able to double uh buy back both
13281s APF and lqing considering when we last
13284s saw missu he was able to find that one
13286s versus one asper and he was the Lone
13289s teada so he must have been able to
13291s actually buy his players back which
13293s would make sense because when we
13294s actually cut to uh Team 12 when they
13296s were coming up for that third party the
13298s two players had blue armor I believe so
13301s one thing that they were able to find
13302s off of uh her's body must have been one
13305s set of purple armor which they're going
13307s to be incredibly happy about it because
13309s that's an immediate upgrade where you
13310s also don't have to put yourself into an
13312s incredibly disadvantaged position like
13314s being incredibly far forward and trying
13315s to control a moris blessing in a Lobby
13318s that is being currently dominated by
13319s Sans siphon yeah lovely pickup there Mo
13323s I completely forgot that missu uh was a
13326s solo who killed Casper earlier able to
13328s find that rest using those coins and try
13330s hard on the traditional Transformers on
13332s top of the roof they just want to play
13334s this out get this gold armor and it
13335s looks like new wants the action wants to
13337s fight on this rooftop dragon war is
13338s going to be coming out te all is
13340s invested in response Adon on this b r
13342s going to pop that usan all hopefully
13344s create some space for his team F3 going
13346s to be invested on the try hard try hard
13348s still wants to get ooly wants to get in
13350s that action has a dragon war wants to
13352s find someone caught out but he realizes
13353s another team is showing up missu and
13355s crew all peppering in want to play for
13359s this armor to Al shelf does come out
13361s it's not a really good spot for try on
13363s the monk to find some value off this
13365s ultimate and now multiple team showing
13366s up Coon's team showing up we got four
13368s teams mhing it out for this last box and
13372s looks like try hard's going to attempt
13373s his umbrella is going to come down to
13374s defend against this range but try hard
13375s has to be careful not lose all of his
13377s armor before he reads he heads in the
13379s building trying to reset some RL Qing
13381s now diving in looking to take the box
13383s but again try hard Intel looking to
13386s claim this loot but from multiple a
13389s angles we got DBC Q showing up now and
13391s the whole Lobby is here at this box Yan
13394s Lee against the fence looks for the
13396s silence able to get in onto TR he has to
13398s be careful here he does push the the
13401s Viper to the low ground unfortunately
13403s ADOT is going to get St by Yan Le solo
13405s player not able to get any value and no
13407s followup from his teammates but back to
13409s the Box the Box we want this box Moxy
13412s are they going to be able to get it or
13413s are we going to see NE coming for the
13415s grief oh almost hey there we go try hard
13418s walks away with legendary armor I I
13420s believe that they also have two sets of
13421s dragon as well as try hard's taking a
13424s lot of potential damage coming through
13425s from repeating crossbow with Venom tip
13427s attached to it but crucially team eight
13430s did not have to invest that t High
13432s ultimate so no one is going to be trying
13435s to press that engagement against this
13437s team and punish them when they s those
13441s really powerful burst ultimate windows
13444s so we're going to see Team eight just as
13446s we saw in the last Lobby those
13447s Transformer teams wanting to put
13448s themselves onto The High Ground lot of
13450s these other teams as a result wanting to
13452s try and play towards the insides of
13454s these tents and sides of the cliff so
13456s that they have terrain to be able to
13459s evade the monk grabs when try hard does
13461s go for the ultimate I do believe he's
13463s the only monk that we have currently in
13465s this Lobby so when he does go for that
13467s ultimate he is going to be painting a
13469s significant Target on his back as well
13471s as not having other monks to be able to
13473s take over a lot of the focus Fire coming
13476s through from some of these teams when he
13477s drops outside of that ultimate with the
13479s monk Domino effect that we see in
13481s Transformer heavy lobbies we're going to
13484s see a faer go into Mech to try and
13487s escape a lot of the range projectile
13488s poke coming through as everyone now is
13491s pushed off of those more hidden spaces
13493s and out into the open and looking for
13497s those stagger setups new coming in with
13499s the pistol damage onto the players
13501s opposite them taking a little bit of
13503s pressure coming through but no an amount
13505s of pressure that is currently going down
13508s on the plateau opposite King R defense
13511s coming in from the Transformers team
13513s with that F kicking in to keep everyone
13515s topped up mushroom did go down in the
13517s meantime as we're actually going to see
13519s Team 11's youan I stand correctly there
13521s is still one of the Transformer team in
13523s this Lobby try hard now in that ultimate
13525s looking to try and find some of these
13527s grab ski actually separated away uh will
13531s be able now to come into with that
13532s repeating crossbow TR has been able to
13534s find one grab repeating crossbow doing
13536s so much followup damage into the dragon
13538s Ru missu is going to go down ADOT
13542s however having used that yian ultimate
13544s at the same time as try hard's
13546s transformation ultimate this is
13548s something that we've actually started to
13549s see a lot of these players go for
13550s because of the enabling factor of that
13553s karumi F3 even as the monk drops out of
13555s the ultimate because you have that
13556s healing defense you're going to not have
13558s to worry about using the Yan to be able
13561s to ice off a lot of that pressure with
13562s his ultimate instead you can look to
13564s come in with the usan ultimate to
13565s stagger and set up those monk picks
13567s while the monk is still in that
13569s transformation try hard still taking a
13571s lot of Fire coming through from some of
13572s these players around in ski however it's
13574s the one that is currently burning to the
13576s flam breath coming through from team
13578s number five the karumi losing that armor
13581s again and again and again you can see
13584s the focus fire all of these players see
13586s that karumi see that monk still standing
13588s and know that they need to pick up the
13589s weak spot in this composition which is
13591s that
13592s support the cannon pressure coming out
13595s from yunu and Coon's team forcing out
13597s try hard team they picked up a couple
13599s kills but APF in the background finally
13601s taking the Agra from new new but
13603s steam knows that they have Intel against
13605s the ropes they're trying to find ski
13607s they're trying to close him out but he's
13609s able to make his way into the tunnels
13611s able to get a reset here but it looks
13612s like hon looking for the flag not able
13614s to get it cats DCR they want to
13617s take this fight Nunu able to pick up APF
13619s now three teams alive Yan Le making his
13623s way sneakily into the building last solo
13626s alive and it looks like coam doesn't
13629s want to overextend they want to secure
13631s this win and now try hard Al almost back
13633s online he has full health this is going
13635s to be a juicy monk all there's no way
13638s he's going to be taken down right now
13639s yanle going to pop his ultimate does
13641s find DCR stun but they end up staring
13643s into each other's eyes not able to do
13645s anything except locked eyes try hard
13647s turns to left ready to dragon war not
13649s able to get it Adon on the rooftop but
13652s now try hard with the ultimate inside
13654s the T old Adon tries to come in wants to
13657s help stagger with try hard but the group
13659s he advance manal coming out from ski do
13662s and wonders for his team try hard's
13664s going to D transform doesn't get any
13665s value out of his ultimate but able to
13667s force that Tami Al up now now holding on
13669s the top Road try hard opening up with
13671s the dragon war looking for some hits but
13673s the kada going to shove him out you're
13674s not welcome here try hard cats inside
13677s the building the mosit is ensuing newu
13680s joining in as well all three teams just
13682s jumping piling in to this house now ski
13686s realizing wait a second let's not get in
13688s there we're disengaging out of here Adon
13689s making a the space cat making their
13691s way to the top rope down Yu big with the
13693s to flying out trying to create some
13695s opportunity forcing out ski into the
13697s ultimate Great Parry coming up in SC
13699s denying that Fenix blast try hard's
13700s going to get parried here but he still
13701s has the Bell up Adon coming in with the
13704s slams peeling off the the kada AL
13708s running out now hopefully try hard is
13711s going to be able to have his ultimate
13712s out now seam on the top of they
13713s lost one of their members but try hard
13715s coming in with the loot able to salvage
13718s a lot of these heels they've taken up so
13720s much damage now coam is going to tag in
13722s see if they can get a kill unfortunately
13725s for them newu is going to get the full
13727s reset adod no ultimate his name ski no
13730s ultimate to his name it's going to be a
13732s scuff fight leading into the last leg of
13735s this fight triple charge is flying out
13738s from Adon doing a ton of damage to the
13740s zipping but the dragon war from tryhard
13743s following up not letting his opponents
13745s get away want last man standing of
13747s his team mortal Defiance is going to pop
13750s he's trying to get away right now new
13752s trying to take advantage of the last
13754s solo hit try hard wants to secure this
13755s kill get another kill on the board up to
13760s 13 kills already now last team up Moxy
13763s who's going to take it try hard able to
13766s come back in with the ultimate and we
13768s are outside in the open where the monkey
13770s is going to be able to find the most
13771s value ad with the r on that pord again
13774s intercepting the players that try hard
13776s is able to slam into this usan with that
13778s P sword dragons r being thrown out on
13780s repeat from the karumi to cover try hard
13783s as well everyone getting scooped up into
13784s that gold as try hard is looking to try
13786s and grab some more of these players new
13789s looking to try and use the cliffs and
13791s Dodge around the grabs coming on out try
13793s hard out of the ultimate charging up the
13795s dragon Ro to Clank against that
13797s legendary Soldier coming through from
13798s the katana teada ultimate now going to
13800s be invested try hard Belling through the
13802s Stagger to be able to reposition and
13804s charge up but dragons Ro turning it now
13806s onto Neu Neu once is out of that blue
13809s and into gold looking to do exactly the
13811s same as as Yan continues to remain on
13813s the field staggering everyone into the
13815s corruption six damage surely this is
13817s going to be a win for tryhards team that
13819s caught up in the legendary sold b a
13821s three versus one he's going to have the
13823s ultimate available as well but try hard
13825s goes down to the katana now it's a two
13827s versus one the Yan without that ultimate
13829s BG continues to be pressured out by both
13832s ski and the Yan and AD will be able to
13833s come in with the pul lock down to be
13836s able to chunk the health down it looked
13839s a lot Clos closer than it should have
13840s been in a three versus one but the
13842s second that we went out into that open
13845s and try hard is able to use that
13847s ultimate to get that Health repl punch
13848s cuz when he uses that monk ultimate as
13850s that zone collapses in he's actually hit
13853s with the fire TI damage his health is
13855s going down rapidly and the fact that
13858s he's able to actually hit the ultimate
13860s in time to save himself and give himself
13862s that second life is what turned things
13865s around for his
13866s team now looking at the highlights here
13868s try hard team absolutely dominating in
13871s the realm of Yang since he with her on
13875s their siphon Comm able to bring this out
13877s taking getting a win over q&t here the P
13880s sword slams coming out from Harem just
13883s doing so much damage in that backline
13886s that flank coming in huge m going back
13888s to try hard scene the double grab from
13890s tryhard with the followup slam the onew
13893s punch coming out from the double
13896s transform of tryhard and adod just too
13898s much to deal with with now just a
13901s standard cleanup with those light
13903s attacks now transitioning getting closer
13906s to the end game the double grab again
13908s coming out from tround just so much
13911s monstrous double grabs coming out from
13913s Team Intel now we're seeing the 1 V one
13915s with Casper Casper able to
13918s dodge uh Miss's team not Miss's team the
13921s other team on the tower unfortunately
13923s for him finding missu trying to Res his
13926s teammates and missu is actually able to
13927s Res the rest of his team now solo harem
13930s inside the remble the Phoenix blast just
13932s too much damage too much knockdown
13936s sending herim for a ride unable to
13939s survive in situations and we're looking
13941s at what I think is probably the play of
13943s the game Adon Intel Tri hard able to
13946s survive the ambush from El uh
13950s lqing and uh Godless their team one of
13954s the best teams in on the na server
13958s opening up with the perfect execution
13960s but the perfect peel coming out from TR
13962s now this end game was spectacular we had
13965s multiple teams on every side of the
13966s corner Cannon pressure from all sides
13969s and it comes down to a 3v3 with a
13971s singular Al monk Al versus teada Al
13974s unfortunately for them tryhards was able
13977s to come out on top and create even more
13980s value with the dragon roar Adon with the
13982s usan able to transition perfectly
13986s covering all of his teammates denying
13988s that teada pressure now in this 2v 3v
13991s one situation we see a kill coming out
13993s from new-u big he's clutching it up
13995s there was signs of life but the light
13998s attacks are coming out non-stop stagger
14000s just coming out unable to get anything
14003s going and Adon is going to clean it up
14005s and it looks like Intel in a solid
14008s position to take today for 0 now they're
14012s not going to get any of that priz but
14014s they are here to win it regardless oh
14017s you at
14018s 82.8
14020s Billy Billy smile at 64.5 Crazy Cow we
14023s saw newu teams skyrocketing up now
14026s they're in Striking Distance of the top
14028s three now because Intel DPC Q cannot win
14033s any prize money the rest top two three
14037s and four will be considered first place
14040s going into this last game little sheep's
14042s team as well in Striking Distance of a
14045s big cash prize themselves now DBZ Q
14048s playing with Jen maintaining their top
14050s six Place Coons team skyrocketing up the
14053s leaderboards though at 41.2 s worms at
14056s 39.4 since staying consistent in
14059s Striking range they can get a 20-point
14062s game possibly get into the money in that
14064s top four for Zoo Quantum TDM they're
14067s playing this last round out of
14069s desperation out of Pride hopefully they
14071s can get something going for their last
14073s game of the day yeah talking about
14075s Striking Distance we are within Striking
14077s Distance of the very last game of the
14080s day Grand finals for the astral uh cup
14083s will finish in one game Raven but you
14086s know it takes a little bit of time to
14087s approach that last game so we're going
14089s to get close over to it right after this
14103s [Music]

14321s [Music]
14326s it all comes down to this raven we have
14329s been going through the nraa blade Point
14331s astral cup for three weeks so many
14334s matches we've seen these players go
14336s through so many different lobbies so
14338s many different compositions so many day
14340s and night cycles and here we stand at
14343s the gates one last match is going to
14346s determine who walks away with such a
14349s huge amount of money for this prize pull
14352s but not just that the honor as well
14355s because some of these teams as we've
14356s talked about are playing purely for
14360s their name and reputation and probably a
14363s little bit of fun as well a lot of fun
14366s Intel loves nraa they're super
14369s passionate but everyone in the top the
14371s top right here the most of these players
14373s two years vets coming in hot a lot of
14376s players coming back because as com event
14379s super awesome I'm super happy that they
14382s were able to throw this event tons of
14383s players coming out even with the 12
14386s rounds even with the 10 Rounds even with
14388s slightly different rule sets everyone
14390s has had a ton of fun and with this prize
14393s pool being so large the future of Nora
14396s is looking super bright now for this
14400s last round I said game five Championship
14403s round that's where the clutch is up it
14405s really sets you up for the possibility
14408s of actually taking home the prize now
14411s there were a couple teams the top four
14412s all within that 20 point game now 20
14415s points that's a really good game you got
14417s to pop off right now if you're hoping to
14420s take first place cuz remember Intel
14422s cannot claim the prize gas's team cannot
14425s take the prize so the there are two
14428s spots that are not up there for that top
14431s $6,000 so a lot of teams in the Striking
14435s range there's going to be a ton of drama
14436s unfolding every kill's going to matter
14438s any between 10 to 20 we got two moving
14441s Moon B around the map we got DBQ we got
14444s goas we got Intel
14446s all get action and everyone's hot
14449s dropping this is the last game it always
14451s happens I mean yeah that there is
14453s literally no reason to not go as
14456s aggressive as possible because like you
14457s said this is the last game so this is
14459s going to be action packed from start to
14461s finishes even TI is going to be seeing a
14462s lot of action right off of the Ripon
14464s coming in oh my goodness what a Wombo
14467s Combo R&B on the fan at the same time as
14469s R&B on the H Birds one player gets
14472s stagger locked off of one focus rri and
14474s if you get stagger locked by one you get
14475s stagger locked and immediately
14477s eliminated by the second that's
14480s absolutely devastating and if you don't
14481s Parry it right off the bat or have that
14483s combo breaker F you're just gone as a
14486s lot of these players are just gone
14488s within seconds everyone is going for
14491s full try hard everyone is going for full
14494s team Synergy number locking everyone
14497s down in the light Stager so of players
14498s are able to throw into those Blues
14500s without worry of parrying as now we do
14502s get to see shipwreck we're already down
14504s to 21 players in this
14507s Lobby all of the players going down will
14510s have rebirth but these numbers are going
14513s to be skyrocketing and dipping like
14515s absolute crazy as mushroom is going to
14518s be trying to track down some of the
14520s stragglers from Team 10 interrupted
14522s before they're going to be able to scare
14523s rush off of that staff potential
14525s recovery however coming through from the
14527s team as we are going to see the f come
14529s through from an enemy Viper mushroom
14531s just throwing in the charge UPS on that
14533s fan looking to find a connection onto
14534s Casper throws out the ultimate as well
14536s to be able to catch the Yoto will be
14539s able to dodge through that Yodo blade
14541s once it's run out as well Viper ultimate
14543s now going to be invested coming through
14545s to force mushroom back around side of
14548s the building and it did look like that
14549s was actually able to find a couple of
14551s staggers and result in Plan B the woen
14554s going down no ultimate to be able to
14557s teleport people away and as a result
14559s mushroom is actually forced to stick the
14561s revive as we see the combination of the
14565s Tesla and the Viper able to together
14567s double the red speed and pick the Fallen
14569s player up as someone drops the Bane's
14572s breath and immediately everyone scatters
14574s away from Team three new new showing up
14577s with the moon Bane third party just
14579s everyone piling in to shipwreck it's an
14582s absolute Festival of Carnage going down
14585s at Chi q&t trying to disengage but dpq
14588s hot on their heels and Nunu completing
14590s the sandwich with the flank play Plan B
14592s realizing a full new team is behind them
14594s Nunu double alting in planb is going to
14597s get absolutely deleted the V2 is going
14599s to be invested by jaon Z but it's too
14601s late there's nowhere left to go and DPC
14603s Q is going to go down by the third party
14606s of new new that Moon Bane uh timing
14609s attack coming in late to these Hot drop
14611s locations just guarantees you're going
14613s to be fighting out with these very
14615s scuffed teams who may not be aware who
14617s don't have a ton of heals cuz they just
14618s been fighting nonstop off spawn now it
14621s looks like new had something going they
14623s took an isolated fight and they were
14624s able to grab that money grab that
14626s advantage and come over to shre knowing
14629s that there was a ton of action going
14632s down there now transitioning into this
14634s mid game now n it looks like they saved
14636s their siphon comp for this last game now
14639s like we were saying before Moxy this is
14641s the strongest comp in the current trios
14644s meta until something new is found maybe
14646s hottie there's something in the works we
14648s saw a little bit of it today but this
14650s composition early game mid game inside
14652s Yang end game just so powerful because
14655s it just works off the back of that teada
14658s and the heels of that uh B2 zipping now
14662s q&t unfortunately for them getting moon
14665s ban as a Duo versus Steam and I
14668s believe this is her second's life Ki is
14669s going to get taken down on the Wen it's
14671s up to Casper every time we see him he
14673s just has to be breaking people's ankles
14674s can he make the moves can he find the
14676s distance to get away from Co team looks
14678s like he's going to get the resets but
14679s only Min heals to his name not much he
14683s can do right now looks like Kwa is going
14685s to have to sacrifice him great tracking
14687s coming out from team to take down
14689s Casper now q&t on the ropes it looks
14692s like kilawa sitting on top of the roof
14694s out tries to sneak a res I respect it
14696s we're going down with the ship we're not
14698s leaving any homie Left Behind F3 is
14701s going to come out 1v3 situation can Kil
14704s find a horizontal can he find the Parry
14706s the grapple stacker is going to come out
14707s no more hit points to his name he's
14709s going to pop the B2 but he's unable to
14711s and q&t is going to get deleted by Co oh
14715s q&t on the receiving end of both BS both
14718s the one that TC drops and also the one
14720s that went down in ship wreck and we said
14723s it was going to be an incredibly
14724s aggressive team that aggression I'm sure
14726s is going to be continuing for a lot of
14727s these teams that still need to claw
14729s their way up the leaderboards they're
14730s not going to be holding anything back as
14732s we're going to be seeing Team Four
14733s taking a fight against team one Hardy on
14735s the field here we go golden stage Focus
14739s he's going to be able to use the
14741s mobility on the ultimate to dodge away
14743s from the Viper ultimate just off of
14744s distance and also breaking line of sight
14746s coming in with the triple charge to try
14747s and peel for his players who did get
14749s stunned he is going to get hit by that
14751s test ultimate activation which means he
14753s has to wait the fre seconds to be able
14755s to get the F back on and be able to fly
14758s out of range and we're starting to see
14761s maybe why Hardy hasn't really found his
14763s place in The Meta currently not only
14765s does he struggle against something like
14767s the tul with wisps being able to catch
14769s you out in the ultimate but the fact
14771s that you lose that uh momentary flight
14774s when you get hit by the Tessa ultimate
14777s activation and then subsequent te
14779s breakage means that you're a little bit
14781s too vulnerable when you drop out of that
14783s flight mode as now we're going to be
14784s seeing new new actually able to pick
14786s off of the rip as well they're
14790s going to be very happy about that this
14791s is an incredibly aggressive team that
14793s already up to 10 kills as they continue
14796s to shark these locations of shipwreck
14799s not allowing any team really to be able
14802s to scale loot off of this area to
14804s potentially push into realm of Yang n be
14807s even using the ult ultimate to clear
14809s over team five's head and cut off their
14812s disengagement yo ultimate is going to be
14814s invested finding some stagger onto the
14817s players of the Sans SI and Cat actually
14819s taking the opportunity to try to sneak
14821s away in the meantime but the Yodo
14823s ultimate is gone the teada shove Still
14826s Remains and they're able to find the
14827s kill again onto as a
14831s result that Tami all was spectacular
14834s cutting off the full Retreat and you're
14837s just seeing why this sand siphon is so
14840s powerful Tami Al so oppressive teada Al
14842s so oppressive V2 zipping making them
14845s unkillable what can you do against us
14848s except just die with no wo important
14850s name they're going to get shredded now
14851s we got ye out Godless in a Transformer
14854s ditto versus little sheep team one
14856s grab's going to go down double grab
14857s coming now
14859s deciding the fate of Lil sheep now in a
14862s 1 V3 can he bring this oh 1 V2 Lil sheep
14865s has an opportunity to bring this back
14866s but the KY is resing the usan the monk
14869s Slams are coming out L sheep looking for
14871s the grab moving to the side but the
14873s umbrella is going to defend against his
14875s little sheep trying to find an opening
14876s here but Yan Lee with the movement able
14879s to outbox little sheep now want to D
14881s transform 1 V3 situation going to eat
14883s the soul blo but what can he do he's
14885s under the Kumi umbrella light attacks go
14888s going to go down and he leaves them with
14890s a little present of poison mushroom but
14892s it's not going to matter ye shout
14895s Godless Yan Lee are going to take it on
14899s the outside on the ditto
14901s Transformers legendary something on the
14904s body as well that has to be a soul JS we
14906s are going to be soon seeing the realm of
14909s yangs and unfortunately for team 10
14912s actually no I think they were able to
14913s hold on to the usan ultimate yeah he
14915s still has it uh on the lower left side
14918s should be able to come back into that
14919s Kumi ultimate pretty soon as well as
14921s that Transformers we're going to be
14923s seeing team number n trying to VI for
14926s the position of that real of Yang might
14929s just be griefed out of it however as it
14931s is going to be sin coming in with that F
14934s Mech connecting one Cannon shot onto the
14936s Viper forcing them to back on off this
14938s is the buff that came through on to
14940s Faria if you get hit by one of those
14943s cannons you go into the absolute blender
14946s one connect two connect three connect
14948s Viper gone and now it's going to be sin
14951s with that numers deficit trying to find
14954s these kills to stick L&B coming through
14956s from solo on that dagger to be able to
14958s avoid a lot of the damage coming through
14959s from the Yoda ultimate and we're
14961s actually going to see a ram of Yang
14963s fight as it does look like it's y's team
14965s gly not having that ultimate online just
14968s yet however surely it's got to come
14970s online soon so the Transformer team can
14973s find the namesake and win condition as I
14975s think the team has yeah they've seen
14977s that okay they don't have that monk
14978s ultimate they're forced to actually use
14980s the Yan ultimate to be able to disrupt
14982s the composition of the team that they're
14984s up against they've been able to find one
14985s kill off of the back of it big with the
14987s te ultimate activation will be able to
14989s stagger back the Yan and buy himself a
14991s little bit more space but they don't
14992s have the Kumi to be able to find the
14994s revive Kumi ultimate now going to be
14996s coming on through t as well to keep
14999s everybody topped up and Alive with that
15002s extra damage reduction going on out
15003s yanley now getting the opportunity to
15006s use the transformation looking to try
15008s and find some of these grabs big trying
15011s to pressure the karumi trying to play
15013s behind the pillar so he doesn't get
15015s grabbed out has to be careful that he
15017s doesn't get flushed out of this hiding
15019s position by the rest of the teammates on
15021s team 10 he's looking as Yan Lee to find
15024s these grabs he's able to find one holds
15027s in position for potentially any followup
15029s damage on the pul the zip healing going
15032s to be kicking on through to be able to
15034s keep themselves alive a little bit
15035s longer 25 seconds left Yan just charging
15038s up the nunchuck meter dump in case they
15039s need to use that but they're going to
15041s hold on to all of that meter charge as
15043s they get hit by the poison Splash as the
15045s zip goes
15046s down crazy clutch up by Yesa and gas
15051s team they don't have full ultimates they
15052s only have one they have a TR they just
15055s have Yan Al and they're able through
15058s that Yan Al's pressure able to get their
15060s karumi alt online able to get their monk
15063s alt online newu makes a huge mistake
15066s blunder there not investing their
15068s ultimates quickly dragging out there now
15070s we got Intel versus Sin Al going to be
15072s invested try hard is Enchanted he's
15075s taking a ton of damage ski coming in
15077s with the peel going to take down DRX now
15079s in a 2v3 situation sin versus Intel
15081s tryhard still has his ultimate all on
15083s still has the buff up will he invested
15085s they are tracing down I'm yellow
15087s yogurt is he going to be testing whether
15090s or not Intel is lactose intolerant it
15092s looks like their stomach can stomach it
15095s they're going to consume that yogurt and
15097s take him him down sin again not able to
15101s get it going they're knocking on the
15103s door of greatness but this last day last
15106s tournament just is not going to be their
15109s day unfortunately it is still Intel's
15112s day they are still representing na going
15116s to Worlds even with hero not showing up
15119s today having to work ADOT stepping up to
15122s the plate filling in those big shoes
15124s showing up big for this team looting up
15129s are they going to be able to cruise this
15130s this Victory new new is doing super well
15133s they have to hold their lead I believe
15135s they were 10 or 15 points ahead but now
15137s looks like godess team with the buff
15138s jumping in F3 is going to be already
15139s invested Transformers against these
15142s buildings Yan Al going to be invested
15143s able to maneuver around here the red
15145s buff is going to be running out how is
15147s instel going to respond to those a Dos
15149s taking a ton of damage scale going to
15150s come out from try hard and now the shs
15152s coming out Yan taking a lot of damage
15154s right now stone form coming out yangi
15156s trying to create some pressure but try
15157s holding his ground tanking for his team
15160s and now the sh's coming in on the
15161s healing Circle Yan Le with the monk able
15163s to create some space right now but
15164s quickly try hard moves out of line of
15166s sight getting his team to safety and now
15169s the buildings the worst terrain for
15171s Transformers their absolute opponent in
15173s this situation is going to take the win
15176s yeah and I mean surely yeah they have to
15178s cancel the mon early and as a result
15180s team a take the opportunity to be able
15182s to jump onto them try hard with that
15184s legendary pull sword just able to chunk
15187s through so much health even if they
15189s tried to take that fight with the
15191s Transformer ultimate still active he
15193s would just be able to scour off of all
15194s of these bildings and find so much
15197s damage onto that Monk's feet it is
15199s however up against a team that did have
15200s that vilon birds might having won that R
15203s of Yang so they're still going to be in
15205s this Lobby and can potentially look for
15207s Revenge but team eight are going to be
15210s incredibly happy as they have another
15211s free kills on the leaderboard and off of
15214s all of the damage that they were able to
15216s do towards the tail end of the fight F
15218s they've also recharged those ultimates
15220s so when they take this additional
15222s pressure coming through from the next
15223s team that rolls up on this position they
15225s going to be able to play as aggressively
15228s as they want team five potentially
15230s thinking about maybe pushing into
15232s celestra deciding to back off instead
15235s and allowing team eight a little bit of
15237s downtime to go for some
15240s shopping Intel up to 10 kills now last
15245s time we were at Nunu I think they were
15246s up to 12 we see new new big into a
15249s scuffle with DCR and we they happen
15253s to be scouting out over here so try hard
15255s making his way over the boxes right in
15257s front of them newu DCR try hard Intel
15261s all rolling up to the same location mosh
15264s bit is going to be going in send to the
15266s side try hard probing on the outside
15267s sees the Len Port going in and he sees
15269s newu here on the the mirror siphon Adon
15274s going to pop up the Teo locking them in
15276s and now try hard coming in with the
15278s jumping lb like a wrecking ball alt can
15280s be invested sheling coming out denying
15282s the get out from the uh Tami right now
15286s the chubs are coming out fly with the
15287s great PE and try hard is going to get
15289s shredded from behind the fan damage just
15292s so big that he's unable to see and
15294s anticipate it but nly able to keep his
15298s team alive he's the last hope they're up
15301s to 13 kills they need more he needs to
15304s get away from here but cat DCR has
15307s him against the Rope V2 is going to be
15308s invested he's going to be swinging
15309s through weaving dodging he needs to get
15313s out of here if he hopes to pass Intel
15315s they're in a great position though in
15317s that second place but APF miss you
15320s lqing up to five kills with 14 people
15324s alive they need to get the rest of these
15326s kills able to take down ski no one
15328s really left to contest them they just
15330s have sin left will they go into Yang it
15333s looks like dcr's team as well has a full
15336s team it looks like DCR KK and team
15339s looking for the assassination denying
15341s the Yang play they don't want them to
15343s get in there but they unfortunately get
15345s no value off their execution missu able
15347s to deny all their pressure with a
15349s singular Teo and now unfortunate for
15351s them they found them next to the bista
15354s looks like
15355s lqing DCR trying to make their way
15359s onto the bisa to peel off but missu
15362s defended by the T Al is going to take
15365s down DCR goes down the dynamic duo
15368s their last tournament of Na going to get
15371s taken down their hopes and dreams on the
15374s shoulders of cat inside the center of
15376s the building he cuts noise trying to
15379s just survive trying to possibly play for
15382s rez but lqing APF hunting for this last
15387s player lqing is going to find cat their
15391s last player remaining he knows he's in
15393s the tower he makes the call out now CAD
15396s in this infinite kite spot can he find a
15398s way to break their ankles on the
15400s platform hiding hide and
15402s seek looks like he's going to survive
15404s for now but for how
15407s long you know what's really funny he's
15409s literally on the the wooden scaffolding
15411s and he's using the white rags to
15414s disguise his
15416s position so team 12 they don't actually
15418s know they they think he's away from the
15420s tower they're checking the purple
15421s invisibility pushes and yeah cat is
15424s actually if you cut to to this
15426s perspective super easy to see but when
15428s you actually are on uh the tower scash
15431s kite you see that white cloth it
15435s actually obscures the vision of the
15436s player behind
15438s it and because it's literally one of the
15440s places they think oh it's so obvious
15442s there's no way they're going to be there
15443s cat is able to roll in that 20 on the
15445s stealth check and makes it out and backs
15449s on off sadly he might be about to back
15451s off into another team over oh okay
15454s changes direction is going to be taking
15456s that blessings quest to try and get as
15458s much money as possible although I do
15460s believe he has enough to be able to buy
15461s back some of these players another team
15463s also in that situation that need to be
15465s able to buy back players is new new as
15467s unfortunately C is back in the position
15469s of trying to survive being chased upon
15471s this time they're too close behind him
15474s to be able to use that scaffolding trick
15477s and hide himself behind that white rag
15479s he just has to take the fight and he's
15482s just going to go down Yan's able to find
15485s the killing blow and cat is going to be
15487s popping up on the wrong side of the kill
15488s feed before they're able to find that
15491s recovery we haven't I believe seen n's
15494s last player their zip actually pop on
15497s the wrong side of the kill feed so NE
15499s can 100% turn things
15501s around we did see miss you able to find
15505s both revives on his teammates on the
15508s last game of Hol off and it is a zip and
15511s as we've talked about Sans siphon zip is
15513s probably one of the best heroes to try
15515s and survive one versus outnumbered
15518s fights because of the sustainability
15520s that's available to you yes you're not
15522s going to be running the F2 which used to
15524s be met one ZIP was previously coming to
15527s the Forefront of compositions which
15530s meant that you couldn't get grapple
15531s canceled but having the effort and being
15532s able to find those heals while still on
15535s the move is absolutely huge for
15536s survivability r as we're going to now be
15538s seeing Yan Le in that Transformer he's
15540s been able to find one grab but he's
15542s actually staggered out of it by the
15544s cannon shots and the Hardy doeses take a
15546s lot of damage but there able to use the
15547s glider F2 to dodge away from the reeverb
15551s grab coming through from the Monk and
15554s he's disengaged off of the back of it as
15556s a result yany taking so much damage off
15559s of all of the Soul jates AR and gets hit
15562s by that Tesla ultimate as well going to
15564s be dropping out of the ultimate but he
15566s doesn't time the ey frame cancel and he
15568s does get hit by the enchantment the Kumi
15571s ultimate now invested from Yia as we see
15573s the had glider being used but yand is
15575s actually able to intercept where the
15576s glider is going to go but he goes into
15578s the uppercut launch a combo off of the
15580s dagger fan into that vertical immediate
15583s lock down now it's a one versus one
15585s Yanni baited into using that Bell and
15587s the hotti is straight out of
15589s her the F being invested from the hotti
15592s that looks so hilarious like we're out
15594s of here har trying to get out of it gets
15597s the soul shatter mix up onto Yan Le not
15599s ready of it but the the power of
15601s Transformers just too much to overcome I
15603s started chuckling is a monk aled in the
15605s center of these trees and he just gets
15607s trapped he looks to Dem the fa but he's
15610s unable to cuz of the trees but it
15612s doesn't matter you shall Godless Zoo
15615s clean up that fight and unfortunately
15617s we're not going to see a clutch up from
15620s the other team sin I love that they
15624s played hottie I love that they played fa
15626s With The Changes they try to make it
15628s work they try to mix up the current meta
15631s but it's just not enough time a few days
15633s patch was Wednesday just a few days not
15635s able to work out this g a is going to be
15637s caught out here though Yesa Godless and
15639s crew can adod show his moves off the t's
15642s going to be invested trees everywhere
15645s he's not able to to scale Rush up but he
15647s is going to get a max range grapple he's
15649s going to go for the max range Play No
15651s grapples to his name what can he do
15654s except run for his
15657s life he does have a staff but the AL
15659s going to coming out misus team showing
15661s up with a third party and again Yan Lee
15664s with the monk flying in looking for this
15666s grab great sacker coming out from his
15667s team lqing trying to dodge trying to get
15669s out of line of side pops the ultimate to
15671s get some space just in case he gets
15673s grabbed T Al's going to be invested and
15675s now the turnaround Yesa behind the wind
15679s wall Yan Lee can't do anything for him
15681s he's going to come flying in at the
15683s remains of his Fallen comrade but it's
15686s not going to matter miss you with the
15688s Dual halard shredding him and now D
15691s transforming him looking for the focus
15693s KN not able to get it B's going to be
15694s invested Yan Al is coming out but the
15696s teada shoving him against the corner and
15699s now Yan running for his life he's not
15702s going anywhere they'll miss you with
15704s this ultimate online APF lqing in Hot
15708s Pursuit we got a wild yon On The Run
15711s he's trying to make his way through the
15712s mushrooms through the trees it doesn't
15714s matter though miss you hot on his heels
15717s going to get the Stagger off onto the
15718s bridge the gold halbert's just doing too
15721s much damage 1 V3 nowhere in sight and
15724s zoo is going to get taken down and
15727s Missus team lading up right now for that
15730s big cash prize they're up to 10 kills
15734s who is going to get up there thousands
15736s of dollars on the line you did it they
15739s got both of their players back into the
15741s mix I was wondering when we were going
15743s to cut back to Flyers perspective the
15744s zip was able to buy both of their
15746s players back and now it's going to be a
15749s fight of new new versus misused team tmy
15752s ultimate going to be invested by coming
15754s in trying to play aggressive get caught
15756s out in the some mul whis and isn't going
15758s to be able to help that team has already
15760s used the ultimate however so everyone is
15761s still going to be receiving that healing
15764s overh holds the fan then cancels it out
15765s to be able to come in with a couple of
15767s those light attacks poison shrooms also
15769s going to be making it a lot harder for
15770s these players to be able to hold on to
15771s their health bar as it goes directly
15773s through the heal and ignores that
15774s shielding as teor ultimate still to come
15777s into play one two coming through from
15779s Big they've lost fly however on the zip
15782s horizontal swinging into missu however
15785s but big is caught out by the way
15787s zip immediately going to be kicking in
15789s with that V2 from aling to be able to
15791s survive the damage coming through from
15792s this legendary P sword again we're going
15794s to see that toxa mushroom actually
15796s starting to chunk away Big's heper and
15798s they lock him into position so he's not
15800s able to disengage and find a heal with
15803s the timul ultimate being now the only
15805s play remaining for Neu coming in with
15807s the pul not going to be able to take the
15809s one versus one APF the only player alive
15813s I think the only other player that is
15815s still in the mix is is actually adod who
15818s when we last saw him was able to use the
15820s fact that team 12 took another fight to
15823s be able to position himself on top of
15826s the Morris blessing was he able to find
15830s a soul alter aod is just looking to live
15834s for as long as possible but he's out of
15837s Vitality he's going to go down it's an
15839s anticlimax Raven as our last ever game
15843s of the TR 2023 astral cup is finished by
15847s his own corruption tick
15850s damage to be fair to adod it was the
15852s right play in a 2V1 situation with the
15854s points being so close he doesn't want to
15856s risk giving that points over he does
15857s clutch it up though adod was in the mix
15859s of everyone going out and we saw the
15862s Carnage over here in wreckage just
15864s nonstop third parting the moon Banes
15866s going down just so much fighting q&t
15871s goes down to DPC Q DPC Q goes down to
15874s newu now on the outside Godless team
15878s versus I believe this is adward team
15880s double grab goes down on both sides but
15883s it's not enough the healing Circle was
15884s already invested
15886s unfortunately for Oni he's not going to
15888s be able to clutch it up for his
15890s teammates there really really close
15891s fight both teams get back-to-back double
15893s grabs now inside the real of
15896s Yang Godless yanley with the grab again
15900s versus newu closing it out just I
15903s remember this fight a singular Yan old
15906s eight able to win it out versus nunu's
15909s double old newu just holds on to their
15911s old for way too long not able to get
15913s anything going and Godless his team is
15916s able to clutch it up now inside celestra
15918s we're seeing we saw just how important
15922s terrain is in these fights uh tryhards
15925s Team getting jumped on by Godless and
15928s Yan Lee with their Transformers able to
15930s fade out deny any value from that monk
15934s ultimate coming back and cleaning up
15936s with a pure zero ban action no ultimates
15939s to anyone's name just mono eano melee
15942s versus melee try hard makes quick work
15944s of them now closing out the day the last
15949s couple fights the most important fights
15951s we see APF miss you lqing clutching it
15955s up versus Godless his teams yanle they
15957s just not able to do much transfers
15959s Transformers versus siphon just not very
15962s good but the most exciting fight of the
15965s last match was the clutch up versus Nunu
15968s in the end but we're just going to get
15969s the followup of Adon denying that last
15971s Point yeah I mean it's it's going to
15974s come down to the wire I'm sure oh not as
15976s close to the wire as we thought okay
15995s 122.2mi
15997s once again enables them to have a little
15998s bit of a cushion to be able to go
16000s through some of those rougher games that
16001s they're able to bounce back with the end
16004s games at the very late part of the day
16007s Billy Billy smile also going to be
16008s walking away with that fourth position
16010s 80.3 Incredibly Close behind newu gr
16013s going to be a little bit further behind
16015s on Fifth lonely picking up the rear with
16018s Sixth and then we have swis on seven DP
16021s CQ on eight sin on nine Quantum on 10 11
16025s on zoo and TDM on
16028s 12
16030s 5.4 points who who was on the team of
16033s TDM having a rough day but still making
16035s it the finals and we're seeing the
16037s outcome and why these two teams are
16040s representing na at Worlds Intel DPC Q uh
16044s Godless his team their their pug still
16047s getting fourth with yea and dumpling or
16051s in this case dumpling didn't play Zoo
16053s played APF team miss you coaching up
16057s Intel going to be going to Worlds as
16059s well but technically not part of the
16061s team so he's able to play with APF these
16063s boys are able to close it out win that
16066s giant bag Crazy Cow new new their rank
16070s demons showing up huge today able to
16073s climb up push through climb up and
16076s Ladder up to that third place even
16079s te able to get to that top six but only
16082s the top four will be paying being played
16085s I believe uh Lil sheep's team should be
16087s getting that last place for that nice
16090s chunk of cash thousands of dollars going
16093s out $10,000 total 6,000 going to first
16098s 2,000 going to Second Awesome event
16101s going down what exciting gameplay from
16103s everyone we saw some great end games a
16106s little bit of clutch but that last game
16107s it's always just coming down to full
16109s aggression the teams on that cus they
16112s only get paid for top four so it's it's
16115s do word die it's a hail Mar or nothing
16117s and unfortunately some of the teams came
16120s up short but not new new they came down
16123s pushing they're able to clutch up some
16125s nice Moola U's team able to weather the
16128s storm have another solid game themselves
16130s surviving that wreckage
16132s Play What a Day of Astral cup trios Moxy
16137s I mean I'm happy I got to see Hardy we
16140s were talking about the fact that
16141s Transformers definitely feels like it
16142s took a hit in terms of its placement and
16144s matter but I think the bus to karumi is
16147s making it a little bit more competitive
16149s with something like the sustainability
16151s that's provided to zip so you don't
16153s always have to worry about you know
16155s losing your ultimates as a Transformer
16157s team especially inside places like real
16159s of Yang and still not having been able
16160s to clinch that wi condition because that
16163s F3 now not only has that damage
16165s reduction but also does the healing tick
16167s damage even outside of those ultimates
16170s you can still somewhat go Toe to Toe of
16172s sans siphon it's it's still definitely
16174s not having that insane kill po potential
16176s that is available in the neutral that s
16178s siphon has over Transformer but it
16181s definitely makes it a little bit more
16182s competitive and I cannot wait to
16185s actually get to ask one of the players
16187s when they head into the interview Booth
16188s their opinion on whether or not they
16190s think those karumi changes are going to
16192s allow Transformer to hold their own a
16194s little bit
16195s more I I
16198s wonder Intel wins it here do they win it
16201s at Worlds they great display from Adon
16204s showing up filling up for hero shoes
16206s um DPC q without King and Godless not
16210s the same part like I I believe King and
16212s Godless are the heart and lifeblood of
16214s those teams as far as organization and
16217s especially Godless before King even
16219s joined the team uh he led DPC Q uh
16223s godess LED DPC Q to all those multiple
16225s victories today though Jiao Denai needs
16228s to get his feet wet with the team
16230s showing up trying out all all the new
16232s stuff we saw a lot of hottie today from
16235s that c team I see the potential I think
16238s if he's paired with yon he has a little
16240s bit more value Faria is a little bit
16242s tough we saw the the V1 variation coming
16244s out from adward and his team as well uh
16248s B3 just a little bit too shortsighted
16251s but we saw from triy hard monks still
16253s picking apart Faria it's very very hard
16255s to get value out of Faria versus the
16257s super competent monks uh that we have in
16259s this competitive scene now I still think
16262s it's too soon to make the call Moxy I
16265s still think kotti is going to find his
16267s place somewhere we saw a little bit of
16269s the the newer composition that is being
16271s used the Yodo Faria and Yan that
16274s composition is a great alternative to
16276s the Transformers if you're just getting
16278s into the game a lot of teams get uh two
16280s years of practice on that Transformers
16282s we have a new come new style of play
16285s possibly replacing the Transformers in
16287s the future I don't know it's hard to say
16290s especially with the Kumi Buffs it looks
16292s like going into the worlds all these
16295s teams have
16296s all of their strats dialed in I'm
16298s excited to see what is going to happen
16300s at Worlds given this current new meta
16303s and I mean there's time as well between
16305s now and jaob for these players to be
16308s able to figure out all the threats I
16310s know you are hard at work trying to
16312s figure out all of the ramifications of
16314s all of the changes and how that's going
16316s to mix and match in terms of positioning
16318s and deciding which hero you want to
16321s sacrifice and throw under the bus to try
16322s and preserve Another Hero into those 1
16325s V1 which can be the make or break in
16328s being able to walk away the MVP so much
16332s goes into nraa behind the scenes not
16334s just the pl that you get to see so a
16336s huge congratulations to all of the teams
16338s that participated for the hours that
16340s they put in that broadcast did not get
16342s to catch we thank you as always for
16344s being a part of our wonderful community
16346s and one of our wonderful Community is
16348s actually going to be joining us in the
16350s cast
16352s of
16354s yo is that here
16357s hero from the car watching cheering on
16360s his team how proud are you for Intel to
16363s take this home for fun with all of the
16366s work behind them seeing adod rise
16368s filling up your big shoes what were your
16371s thoughts of Intel clutching it up is
16374s there any surprises to
16376s you um I'm not surprised at all uh a
16380s little bit though with adod because you
16382s never know it's like a coin flip uh you
16384s might get the best adod you ever seen or
16386s you might get the most troll version
16388s you've ever seen but I'm happy that my
16390s team can win even when I'm not there
16391s that makes me feel good going in the J
16393s cup um I don't feel nervous at all
16395s anymore because uh this with finals is
16398s by no mean easy um these are very good
16400s competitors of our region these are the
16402s top players so I appreciate a lot that
16404s my team can pick up the slack when I'm
16406s not there and still carry the weight to
16408s first place that's a huge
16410s accomplishment So speaking about Jacob
16412s then obviously this is going to be the
16414s patch that we actually see being played
16416s on Jacob which means Hardy is enabled
16418s fer got the buff karumi got the buff and
16420s a couple of weapons also got some
16422s adjustments as well when you were
16424s looking over the patch notes obviously
16426s you don't have to give away all of the
16427s team strategies but what do you think is
16429s actually going to be the most impactful
16430s change that occurred in the rocket this
16434s week um the most impactful change will
16437s probably be Faria uh as far as comps go
16440s it's pretty solidified that siphon is
16442s just undoubtedly the best because teada
16445s his function is only stopped by other
16447s competent teas uh there's no comp that
16450s beats it uh so with that being said I
16452s think farious change is the biggest
16455s relevance just because she is viable
16458s again uh even though she does struggle
16459s versus monk Transformers has fallen to
16462s like a third best team to play um and so
16466s most teams aren't opting to pick it
16467s twice so I think it's big that FY is
16470s back wonderful with this last win I know
16474s you guys clinched up the second place
16475s place you guys weren't really playing
16477s for first now that your team was playing
16478s for first nothing to lose playing for
16481s fun even though you guys aren't able to
16484s claim the prize last second joining in
16487s showing up what are your predictions
16490s going in with your SW Squad going the
16492s worlds what are you hoping to accomplish
16494s hero um I hope to make people appreciate
16499s nraa no matter the region that it's
16501s being played in because regardless of
16505s your background or where you come from
16507s or what your goal is if you put the work
16509s in and the time to be a good player in
16511s the Rocka you can definitely reap the
16512s rewards from it and it's by no means an
16515s easy Journey all of our players who are
16517s good in na have spent over 5,000 hours
16520s getting here and so I just want people
16522s to understand the amount of work that
16524s goes into being good and appreciate nraa
16526s for an ALT form that it is uh and as far
16529s as goals in terms of my team I just want
16532s us to play our best and if we play our
16535s best then I don't want to say we have a
16536s limit on what we can
16538s place so then to sort of picky back off
16541s of that astral Cup being run purely for
16544s the na scene what did it mean to you as
16547s an NA player that you saw that nraa was
16549s actually investing into this region
16552s something that we haven't really seen
16554s come from them so
16556s far um it feels good to know
16559s that we still have life in the game uh
16562s it does well Eastern wise but but
16565s Western's always a little bit shaky uh
16567s the reception we've seen a lot of good
16569s players come and go I've taught a lot of
16571s good players that have came and went and
16574s it feels good to know that there's still
16575s being New Life breathed into the game I
16578s have confidence that we're always going
16579s to be getting updates because the game
16580s is by no mean dead so it feels good to
16583s know that they're still willing to put
16585s money here and appreciate our scene for
16586s his
16588s talent well thank you so much hero I
16591s don't know Raven if you have any other
16594s questions hero a Class Act a beautiful
16597s man any shout outs you want to give
16599s closing out for our Astro cup the
16602s victories team Intel showing up big
16605s today uh well obviously I want to give a
16607s shout out to my team that's first always
16611s um I would also like to give a big shout
16612s out to VL because without the people in
16614s there I would have never been here and I
16617s would have never been able to accomplish

16635s I'm sure both myself and Raven will uh
16638s see you soon and safe flight as well cuz

16642s hours that you're going to be stuck on
16644s that plane until we see you at
16646s sh yeah I'll see you after the 15-hour
16649s flight oh you're 15
16652s oh do you know Raven suddenly I feel I
16656s feel a little bit better about the fact
16657s that my flight's only going to be 13
16660s hours 15 hours of non-stop action we
16664s this morning we were going a ton of
16666s strategy food for thought I shared a lot
16668s of my ideas with inel uh it's going to
16670s be a fun time in that flight it's a lot
16673s of time to really reflect think about
16674s and let it settle in that we're going
16676s into the Jaws we're going into the arena
16678s we're stepping into the the gladi with
16681s all the best teams on earth now in
16683s previous years TR hard has been before
16685s there before Z has been there before
16688s I've been there in spirit as far as
16689s coaching but being there in person is
16692s going to be quite the experience all the
16693s players coming out today uh showed a lot
16696s of heart we've seen a lot of progress
16698s within the na position a lot for some of
16700s the teams it'll be their last time
16701s competing before they go back home to
16703s China after two years of dominating the
16705s scene but we still have one more day
16708s left Moxy tomorrow
16710s solos six rounds of the top players
16713s going at it we're only missing Frost
16714s ofus but the rest of the cast is going
16716s to be showing up I think light opted out
16718s to not to play this weekend to relax
16720s himself but still all the best
16722s competition coming out for a ton of
16725s money I cannot wait for tomorrow yeah we
16728s still have you one more day of solos and
16730s you still have two more days to be able
16733s to enter the nraa blade Point official
16735s Discord service meme competition we've
16738s talked about it so often because we
16740s don't want to see you miss out it is
16742s free to enter you can use any format it
16744s costs absolutely nothing to try your
16747s hand and win some wonderful treasure
16750s choices and there is no better time to
16752s get your hands on some of those treasure
16753s choices when we go into a new season and
16756s all of those Cosmetics are nice and
16758s shiny and Incredibly good looking I'm
16761s not going to lie every single time we
16763s see all of these players dripped out to
16765s the full Raven I get a little bit
16768s jealous cuz I'm like overall a couple
16770s that I get from my battle pass and that
16773s will be me done for the season so
16775s sometimes you have to get a little bit
16777s lucky with those legendaries I'm Still
16779s Holding Out for that karumi cosmetic cuz
16781s the voice pack extra is just oh it's
16784s something even more special just when
16786s you think the Cosmetics team aren't
16787s going to be able to find anything new to
16790s make you go W they knock it out of the
16792s park yet again but speaking about out of
16795s the park we're going to be out of the
16797s desk real soon because R it's been six
16800s games a little bit of a shorter day
16802s today but that has been the six games
16804s all right wrapped up we have dictated
16807s who walks away the champion it is going
16809s to be Intel like we've already talked
16811s about they will not be able to get any
16813s money considering the fact that they are
16815s one of those teams who are already going
16816s to J cup which tells me that the money
16818s will then tumble down to some of the
16820s teams who are not going to jup but were
16823s able to place higher than other teams so
16826s keep an eye on that to see who is going
16828s to be walking away with money but that's
16831s all the time that we're going to have
16833s don't go anywhere tomorrow because will
16835s be coming back with all of the solos
16837s action and as Raven said we have some
16839s absolute star studied players in the
16842s lobby we're going to have try hard we're
16843s going to have byan we're going to have
16845s yoi we're going to have goby it is going
16849s to be for sure six games of nraa you
