1671s what's going on ladies and gentlemen
1673s welcome back to the darker blade point
1674s of pro league I'm your host and your
1676s Caster this evening The Room Keeper
1678s joining me this evening is going to be
1680s my boy Seb as we get ready to lock in
1682s for our fourth bi-weekly and our first
1685s day of Trio's year in our spring split
1688s step how you feeling buddy I am feeling
1691s amazing I love being back here and trios
1695s we know it's the best mode here it's the
1697s best mode out in the game like who
1699s doesn't want to play trios it's so much
1701s fun so much action we're gonna be
1703s getting into it very shortly but I'm
1705s just so excited to be back here watching
1707s the nbpl we're by week four day one of
1710s trios so we are gonna see these guys
1712s coming hot out the gate rude you want to
1714s talk to us a little bit how our teams
1716s have been shaping up so far in this area
1718s it's been a very very interesting season
1721s for a lot of these teams and a lot of
1722s these players uh we've seen some new
1725s metas shifting forward of course Feria
1727s coming into the meta uh changing things
1729s up quite drastically we have that new
1731s particular comp that we uh like to call
1733s that Pacific or rimcom where the monk is
1736s able to just go and hop out of that
1737s Kaiju form jump straight into the mech
1739s start wreaking havoc and building that
1742s old gauge back up and then of course
1744s we've seen some teams starting to
1745s experiment starting to bring Justina uh
1748s back into the meta as the Yoda Hime
1750s picks have started to fall out of favor
1752s in trios and then of course we've seen
1755s some very very interesting picks uh
1758s coming through with the takedas and Z
1760s pings teaming up together uh either
1762s bringing the temi in or using it as an
1765s alternate version of the Transformers
1767s comp where a Takeda covers monk out of
1769s that transformation and zeping uses the
1772s healing to try to keep that monk up and
1774s alive
1776s the season has been absolutely insane
1779s you know we've got newcomers like KLA
1781s coming in taking our first bi-weekly for
1785s trios and absolutely rocking that week
1787s out and then we have of course te
1790s formerly fun Plus Phoenix finally able
1792s to come in in a first place position in
1796s a bi-weekly final and instead of just
1798s falling off the map like we've typically
1800s seen out of fun Plus Phoenix finally
1803s able to take their first place finish
1804s after six bi-weeklies it took them Six
1808s coming in in first place to finally
1810s actually win one Seb absolutely insane
1813s to see coming out of them and then of
1815s course J team continuing to be a
1817s complete monster this year uh very
1820s different from the j-team of last year
1822s where we saw J team of course take the
1824s first world championship come into uh
1826s our nbpl have one big pop-off day and
1830s then sputter out and do nothing all
1832s season after that uh to come back and of
1835s course win the world Championship a
1837s second time and then this season they
1839s have come together and really just kept
1842s the pressure going uh for themselves but
1845s a lot of other teams also doing very
1846s well teams pioneering uh new strats and
1849s teams coming in like xcg just keeping
1852s that consistency alive across the board
1854s so it's going to be very interesting to
1856s continue to see how this meta shapes up
1859s and you know
1860s of note interestingly enough is we are
1863s on the patch uh where akos was released
1865s we haven't seen akkos come out in trios
1868s yet but notably yesterday we saw our
1871s first game that actually had ocos for
1874s the entire season coming forward and
1875s being played in solos a little bit so I
1877s think the question on everybody's mind
1879s going forward here today in trios is
1881s whether or not we're going to see tiger
1882s boy come out or not sub
1885s and we would love to see tiger boy
1887s especially with V3 I there's some crazy
1890s things that you could do with the V3
1892s isolating these 1v1s in these fights and
1895s playing around just caging someone in so
1899s unfortunately we are on release akkos
1901s which means we don't even have the
1903s adjustments in the follow-up patch much
1905s less the V3 which is why we haven't seen
1908s a lot of uh our akko's tiger boy I would
1911s assume you know it as a pro player I
1913s kind of agree with the decision to kind
1916s of wait it out you know there's these
1918s huge changes coming to akkos and let's
1920s be honest the difference between release
1922s akkos and then that immediate follow-up
1924s patch where they made the massive
1926s changes the fact that you can double
1928s jump while an old now uh you can have a
1930s ranged weapon in your hand and not
1932s trigger the Tiger Claws the fact that
1934s the Tiger Claws also don't uh trigger
1937s stone form on things like the pulse
1939s order Greatsword now uh the fact that
1941s you don't have to Sprint to get that
1943s extra movement speed from the leaps as
1945s well on akos he plays almost like a
1949s completely different character in
1950s release patch versus the changes that
1952s came out afterwards so as a pro player I
1956s kind of understand that mindset where
1957s it's like okay I don't want to play this
1959s version of ocos
1960s when I've been practicing this other
1962s version of ocos because then when we
1964s finally do move to a patch where we have
1966s the updated version of ocos you almost
1969s have to unlearn the bad habits you teach
1971s yourself playing this release version of
1973s ocos that is kind of just a lesser
1975s version of what the hero is now
1978s well yeah you definitely wouldn't want
1979s to you know teach yourself all of the
1982s using the same combos trying to do
1984s everything because your play style is
1986s going to have to be so much different
1987s with the new akos a coast that we've
1990s been seeing in this you know future
1992s patch right and that you know it's
1994s understandable from them of course that
1996s they might want to mess around with it a
1998s little bit because you know that tiger
1999s boy is just so strong because I've been
2002s loving playing with the ecos akkos acorn
2005s whatever you want to call them in these
2007s new
2008s in these new game and it's just
2012s obviously trios he might be a little bit
2014s of a detriment because he's kind of like
2016s I feel like he's kind of similar to
2017s Tarka in a sense where he does a lot of
2019s damage and he hurts a lot but team comp
2022s wise I don't know how well he will fit
2025s in really you might want to shed a
2026s little bit more light onto that seeing
2027s how he would be able to fit into a trios
2029s comp well you know there's a lot of
2031s experimentation going on in both n a and
2033s the CN meta right now with the current
2036s version of ocos especially with V3 being
2038s released as well he has a lot of tools
2042s in his kit that are going to allow him
2043s to kind of mess with these Transformer
2046s comps and of course Transformer comps
2047s being a massive uh or having a massive
2051s presence in the current meta is very
2054s very obvious that ocos is going to find
2056s his way into the meta in some way shape
2058s or form you know we thought for a while
2060s we weren't going to see Takeda sort of
2063s fill that slot in Trio's ever for
2065s similar reasons that he didn't just he
2068s didn't do a whole lot he was very much a
2071s damage heavy forward sort of hero he
2074s very much kind of played similar to
2075s Tarka he does a lot of damage he wins
2077s 1v1s
2079s but we've seen in the past of course we
2081s see now Tarka or sorry uh Takeda has
2084s made his way drastically into the trios
2086s meta people have figured out how to
2088s Pilot in him and who he works with as we
2090s take a look here we're going to take a
2091s look uh at the overall scores that teams
2094s have brought themselves towards going to
2096s Worlds these are of course your world's
2098s qualifier points uh every single
2100s bi-weekly of a team places 10th place or
2103s higher in that bi-weekly they earn
2105s themselves some of these crucial points
2107s that they're going to need if they want
2108s to qualify for the world uh Championship
2110s here and you can see quite a few teams
2112s here at the bottom about UC wolves KZ
2115s and TK uh we're three bi-weeklies into
2118s the first season of the nbbl and they
2120s all currently have zero points a lot of
2123s those teams probably gonna find
2124s themselves in the rep change heading in
2126s it to not only uh the overall Grand
2130s finals for the season but probably
2132s repcage heading into Worlds as well as
2134s we take a look here alliance with eight
2136s points on the board and you can see how
2138s drastically the point difference changes
2141s as you go from 14th Place to 8th Place
2142s team GD with 21 qualifier points as they
2146s were able to place themselves uh into
2149s all three bi-week leads thus far and
2152s place well enough to walk away with a
2154s substantial amount of points six or more
2156s points uh every single week and then
2158s you've got a team like Jay team again uh
2160s all of these teams gonna have placed in
2162s all three bye weekly finals but J team
2165s with 27 points te uh coming in uh just
2169s behind that with a total of 25 points
2171s KLA ewg uh tying for third and fourth
2174s respectively uh or oh my God no we've
2176s got a four-way tie for third between
2178s Cala ewg xcg and team G sorry JL at 22.7
2185s man can you imagine that a four-way tie
2189s imagine if they keep that four-way tie
2191s going as well because there there's a
2193s huge chance that that could happen right
2195s now it is going to be down all the way
2197s to bye week four if they play well here
2199s they are going to be going
2201s they're going to be a lot higher up in
2203s the standings but they've almost
2204s basically secured their spots at 22
2206s points where we've seen even 14th Place
2209s only has eight points up on the board
2210s they they are looking like they're
2213s pretty much in the clear and obviously
2214s as we saw I just have to mention this
2216s one more time for my JT fans out there J
2218s team up top
2219s that's
2222s my team
2224s has been playing a lot more consistently
2227s this season and uh a big part of that
2229s being uh they've started to figure out
2231s how to play around Eagle uh if you
2234s remember last season of course we had
2236s some huge changes coming into season two
2239s of The nbpl and one of them being that
2241s j-team lost most of its members they
2243s brought in a lot of uh new players and
2246s the growing pains were most certainly
2248s visible during season two of The nbpl
2251s they had sort of adopted this strategy
2253s where they would wait on the outer ring
2255s of circles to close and try to catch
2258s stragglers off coming in but Eagle was
2261s really the centerpiece of that comp
2262s because he is one of the best monk
2264s players in the league and the problem
2266s with that strategy for Jay team was the
2268s fact that J team simply couldn't scrap
2271s together enough gear to really make that
2273s Transformer comp function the way they
2275s wanted to with how dependent uh the Monk
2278s Is on having good gear going into those
2280s final circles just picking stragglers
2283s off uh coming in from outside of the
2285s Zone it never netted them uh the number
2288s of kills that they wanted or the gear
2290s that they needed to make things happen
2293s this season they haven't had that
2295s problem J team has played very
2296s aggressively
2298s they've gone back to playing that more
2300s traditional Transformers comp which has
2301s a massive uh win percent rate inside
2304s those Realms of Yang so that you often
2306s see Jay team looking to prioritize those
2308s Realms of Yang so they can secure uh not
2311s only some eliminations to take into the
2313s end game but the gear that that
2314s Transformer com uh needs so drastically
2317s to pop off and of course Eagle just uh
2319s when he gets in those final circles the
2321s man doesn't miss he gets those double
2322s grabs left right and Center Seb and
2325s watching those double grabs happen left
2328s right and Center is one of my favorite
2330s things the as a monk enjoyer myself
2334s watching somebody who's absolutely just
2337s able to come through and tear apart a
2339s team and take away their entire plan
2342s because yeah you're grabbed yeah your
2344s grab double slam you're dead
2347s it's one of my favorite styles of combat
2350s and I know the meta is shifting a little
2352s bit further away I know we still see the
2353s Pacific Rim comp of course we've seen
2355s you know the monk come out a bit more
2357s and we still have the monk as a
2360s prominent calm but
2362s see seeing that still there when other
2365s cons are still succeeding where we have
2368s less
2369s people solely relying on monk cops right
2372s we see these other
2374s pubs with their yodels their vipers
2376s their justina's their their monk Takeda
2380s and Tammy is making a comeback as well
2382s we have all of these different
2385s plays where when you have a really good
2387s monk it's just so fun to watch them go
2390s crazy
2392s yeah I mean a good monkeys are too hard
2395s to find there are a lot of teams of
2397s course going to be playing those
2398s Transformer comp just because how strong
2400s the Monk Is But there certainly are
2402s players and we talk about them often who
2405s have separated themselves from the rest
2406s of the pack really as some of the better
2408s monk players here you know we're talking
2410s about RJ teams Eagle rggs 330s uh wbg
2415s Sleepwalker you know when these guys
2417s Munk Up they mean absolute business they
2421s will tear through teams in an instant uh
2424s they will find those double grabs left
2426s right and center and even if they don't
2428s find the double grabs they know how to
2430s capitalize on single grabs the
2432s communication between their teams very
2434s very strong something we've talked a lot
2437s about this season is Target acquisition
2439s coming through uh from these teams right
2443s knowing exactly which Target that they
2445s need to focus down out of specific team
2448s comps to be able to come out on top in a
2451s fight and kind of pull some of those
2454s threats off of the board as it were you
2456s know we talk about that traditional
2458s Transformer comp where it's uh TN High
2461s you as Sean and kurumi and we always
2463s talk about the fact that kurumi is the
2465s the key Domino uh in that team right so
2469s you'll often see these teams try to
2471s either lock down the kurumi or
2474s completely separate the kurumi from the
2476s group so that once she's split off they
2479s can deal with that comp if they can keep
2481s her away and that's kind of where that
2483s Target acquisition comes into is
2485s understanding how these comps function
2488s so that you understand how to tear them
2491s apart and kurumi is the weak link uh
2494s when it comes to those Transformer comps
2496s and we've seen changes coming out of
2498s these teams as well where typically you
2500s would want to put your legendary armor
2502s onto your monk your t on high give him
2504s that extra survivability what you're
2506s actually seeing is if the team has one
2508s legendary armor and purples for the rest
2510s of the team does giving that legendary
2512s armor the kurumi so that she has more
2514s survivability because she is the target
2517s these other teams have understood for a
2520s while now how to play against these
2522s particular uh compositions and who to
2524s Target out we getting ready to lock in
2526s for game number one here so we're gonna
2528s see uh which particular compositions are
2530s coming through from these teams this is
2533s our first game and first day of trios
2535s for our fourth bi-weekly here in the
2537s spring split when this is gonna be a lot
2540s of fun ladies and gentlemen as we're
2542s gonna be seeing these hero picks coming
2543s out very shortly we're seeing very we're
2546s seeing a bit of Monk here coming through
2547s we're gonna see
2549s kz-o-c-t-e and the likes of them ewg as
2552s well
2554s aowg and JL playing on that mug cop but
2557s we're gonna see a really interesting
2558s comp I like from bow down my mom is
2560s gonna be on Takeda and they're gonna
2561s have Moon and lion TT playing zipping
2564s and Matari that's gonna be a very
2566s interesting comp seeing how it's matched
2567s up the target ability of that Atari is
2570s going to be they are going to be the
2572s only batari in the lobby but they are
2574s going to be very easy to spot out as
2576s we're seeing a lot of these other comps
2577s coming in with their Viper Yodo Justine
2579s or Viper yodo
2585s hold on I need to talk about KZ right
2587s now is KZ running Viper TN High to Moke
2591s I I don't whoa whoa there's a lot to
2595s break down here I don't understand why
2598s this comp is going to be running Viper
2599s yeah if you get the Viper stun out the
2602s monk can kind of Wombo a little bit you
2604s potentially get those double grabs but
2606s Viper not really buying a lot of
2608s survivability for Tian High temmie able
2611s to kind of wind wall for the Dion hype
2614s but there's nobody to cover for TN high
2616s as soon as he comes out of that
2617s transformation typically you have you
2619s Asian who's going to you know buy you a
2622s little bit of safety uh is able to
2624s transform when you d-transform if you
2626s have Feria in that comp you can just
2628s have your monk hop into the barrier Mech
2630s uh you know if you have Takeda in the
2632s comp Takeda can use his old to shove
2634s people away from tan high as he's
2636s de-transforming and take control of the
2638s fight this particular comp doesn't
2641s really buy INE safety for Tian High
2644s outside of the temi ultimate and that
2647s Timmy ultimate can be canceled out by
2649s another temmie I don't know what team KZ
2651s is thinking
2652s well I mean we don't know what they're
2655s thinking right now but we could have our
2656s minds changed very
2658s shortly here as we're gonna see te's vvv
2660s already picking up two blue weapons here
2663s as we know in Immortal War weapons of
2666s the blue and purple and gold Rarity are
2668s a lot harder to find in these games so
2671s having a bit of an advantage with those
2673s blue weapons are gonna be a super huge
2675s Advantage we're gonna see Yahweh here
2677s getting buried losing a lot of his armor
2680s here but he's gonna be able to come back
2681s around pick his pull sword back up and
2682s get back out of this fight for the
2684s recent years is gonna be fighting on
2686s xiaofway here it's going to be a 3v1 and
2688s this looks like it might be it for him
2690s and valda picking up two kills right off
2693s the bat here looks like there is one
2695s player left on that jdg team they're
2698s gonna try and get no it looks like they
2699s have all gone out their Spirit form
2702s they're gonna have to try and regroup
2703s and Salvage this game back here so we're
2705s gonna flip over to the celestra area
2707s here we are seeing Alliance and oug
2709s coming up very close to each other we're
2711s gonna see Lucky in the background with
2713s those purple nunchucks that's gonna be a
2714s huge Advantage for them to have so we're
2716s gonna see an F getting popped a little
2719s bit early here is alliances would not
2721s able to get silenced off this here as
2723s entire oug team is gonna end up getting
2725s silenced lucky trying to come back
2726s around on the Chase and it looks like
2727s I'm trying to make something happen on
2729s to live Lynn incredibly low here so
2732s we're gonna see SS already popping the
2733s old trying to invest his ultimate but it
2735s looks like he's not gonna be able to get
2736s anybody here this could be a bit of a
2739s problem oug is going to start to regroup
2740s here trying to get lit they are able to
2742s get him off of that lead ship at SS
2744s taking a lot more damage than he
2745s intended to trying to back away so we're
2747s gonna see oug popping their own Yodo
2749s ultimate here we're gonna see the soul
2750s Bloom Essence coming in super clutch for
2752s Access able to get most of his health
2754s back and it looks like they're gonna
2755s just woochend themselves out of their
2757s Alliance
2758s narrowly missing that fight is we're
2760s gonna flip right back over wolf versus
2762s Team GG 14 already gone down this is a
2764s 2V1 that looks like Ben shu is gonna go
2766s down but a huge double Harry coming out
2768s from the CCC lxx you're trying to run
2770s away goes into the full metered up to
2772s try and get out of this in the gold
2773s Focus but he is gonna go down the double
2775s Perry did not matter
2777s yeah unfortunately team wolves has been
2780s quite out of shape this season and they
2782s continue to uh find themselves
2784s struggling here in our fourth bi-weekly
2788s going forward here misky of course using
2790s that golden Focus uh off of the Takeda F
2792s to be able to break out of that nunchuck
2795s meter dump so that Gigi could easily
2797s flip that fight after the double period
2799s coming through taking a look here team
2801s te on that more traditional Transformer
2803s comp here though uh lacking quite a bit
2806s of the gear uh that they would hope to
2808s be season seeing here they do have a
2810s minute and 40 seconds before Zone one
2812s collapses on to zone two and te on this
2815s comp typically looks to go for those
2817s Realms of Yang but they need to find at
2820s least another set of blue armor so that
2822s they when they had in they're not
2823s extremely far behind in terms of gear
2826s because if they end up against that
2828s mirror match up and they are behind in
2830s gear they are almost guaranteed uh to
2834s lose that particular engagement and
2836s quite a few mirror matchups uh with that
2838s traditional Transformer comp coming
2839s through here in this particular match so
2841s te needs to be careful about their
2844s decision making going forward taking a
2845s look here at wbg who's managed to find
2848s themselves uh blue armor across the
2849s board no purple armor coming through for
2851s them just yeah but a decent stack of
2854s gear things gonna take a slow turn here
2857s as uh typically we see a lot more purple
2859s armor at this stage of the game as teams
2862s find themselves a little bit luckier but
2864s it looks like luck has not been on these
2866s team side uh thus far in game one as
2869s many teams Still rocking white and blue
2871s armor across the board not even a single
2874s set of purple between most of these
2876s teams team Cala are looking to engage
2878s onto OC down below Annalee able to catch
2880s out cxz who comes down from the treetop
2882s there with the nunchucks they're trying
2884s to keep the pressure on here and
2886s continue to Blitz through cxe not quite
2889s sure where the rest of KLA has gone to
2891s as they finally do show up cxe playing a
2894s little bit of bait here using that
2896s decadal to lock down all the members of
2898s OC into the Viper stun here
2901s unfortunately it is the V2 they're not
2903s going to get a lot of mileage out of
2904s that something they're gonna be forced
2905s to pop the wuchen ult as well coming
2908s through OC able to just keep things
2911s alive here as KLA Burns multiple oats to
2915s find no value turning now to team GG
2917s looking like they're gonna go
2918s head-to-head with Team wolves yet again
2921s and this is a nightmare scenario for
2923s team wolves as they have already used
2925s those resurrections and lost the fight
2927s against Gigi once they're gonna pop that
2929s wu-chan old and look to head the other
2931s direction the question is does GG know
2934s which direction they're heading in team
2935s wolves hopes not as they try to break
2937s away
2938s and it looks like they were able to make
2940s a speedy getaway with that woo Channel
2942s they saw the they saw the temi all come
2944s out there just so you know what yeah
2946s it's better if we don't fight this and
2947s it looks like the rematch is coming out
2948s KLA versus OC here looks like they're
2951s going to fight a little bit of Rage
2952s first before OC starts to bring it up on
2955s two of these players on the roof here
2957s but it looks like they've been able to
2958s isolate Kaley's qgg who is going to be
2961s playing a little bit lower here getting
2962s locked into that stone form and this
2964s would be a lot of damage here qgg forced
2966s to take his ultimate here but qgd is
2968s going to go down to OT Slayer he was
2970s able to get one of them they're trying
2971s to get one more as ykc is going to end
2975s up going down and looks that looks like
2976s it could be the end
2978s of those that team KLA going down very
2981s faster they do still have the resurrect
2983s resurrections and they will be able to
2985s come back into this fight as it looks
2987s like ewg and jdg are going to be coming
2989s up close to each other in this fight
2992s they're just doing a little bit of
2993s looting here euron with a purple dagger
2995s this is a
2996s huge advantage in a fight where most of
2998s his opponents only have blue weapons and
3000s Xiao Hui does have
3002s that purple Katana and a purple bow here
3006s so he does have that weapon Advantage
3007s here for this comp obviously they want
3010s to give the most damage to that yodohime
3012s because they're that made their main
3014s damage maker in this comp looks like
3016s they're not going to be taking this
3017s fight too quickly here and year round is
3020s gonna end up backing off jdd doesn't
3022s want to get too involved in the fight
3023s they do have their resurrections here
3025s but looks like they might not want to be
3027s taking this fight too early as we're
3029s flipping back over to wbg here they have
3032s almost all a celestra to themselves here
3034s now and they are just having a good time
3036s and it looks like is he riding Perry
3037s Bell
3040s I do believe he is running uh Barry Bell
3043s here very interesting this is this is
3045s typical double wbg going forward as well
3048s right we've seen a lot this season wbg
3050s just trying to play for late game just
3052s trying to get Sleepwalker uh to those
3054s final circles they don't want to take a
3056s lot of fights early on KZ here of course
3058s uh popping that Bell knows exactly where
3060s wbg is so they are on the hunt they are
3062s hungry to find that fight and wbg who
3065s just wants to keep things moving here
3067s they do not have the gear that they want
3069s they want to find themselves heading to
3070s late game unfortunately wbgs can find
3072s themselves running in to oug as well so
3075s wbg stuck between a rock and a hard
3078s places they have to decide who they need
3080s to engage on here to try to turn the
3083s attention of either oug or uh KZ away
3086s from them on to this other team if you
3088s notice wbg taking a line across the map
3091s where they're not forced to hard engage
3093s with either of these teams but allow oug
3096s and KZ to continue uh to Trail them as
3100s they exit celestra here on the east side
3102s taking a look here we're getting ready
3103s to see those Realms of yank them forward
3105s you can see Team te hungry to take it
3108s into that realm of Yang as well as the
3110s members of ewg it looks like OC trying
3112s to find their way in as well as AOW and
3115s KLA on the north western side of the map
3119s those three teams going to find
3120s themselves probably engaging with each
3122s other as they try to claim the portal
3125s here for the realm of Yang it looks like
3127s ewg standing right on top of it out in
3129s the open though
3130s and this could be uh pretty bad for ewg
3133s one of these other teams descends on
3135s them but it looks like they are going to
3137s get in for free here as they will find
3140s themselves inside the realm of Yang
3141s going head-to-head with GG JL and OC
3144s going to be the other two teams who make
3145s it in to the realm of Yang and we're
3148s going to take a look here as ewg and
3151s team GG get ready to go head to head
3153s inside the realm of Yang ewg's euron
3157s starting to pressure out here not gonna
3159s burn them Uncle very early here because
3161s they are into that cicada comp they want
3163s to make them burn some of those
3164s ultimates before monk comes through as
3166s soon as we see the double Demi oil come
3168s through ewg's euron knows he needs to go
3170s and pop them Uncle to get that Advantage
3173s here for the team trying to get those
3175s grabs out will get his hands on to
3177s miskia looking for the second grab isn't
3179s going to quite find it so we'll go for
3181s the slam artemiskia the heel gonna come
3183s through from zipping Gonna Keep miskia
3184s up here and topped up ewgz run gonna
3187s take a ton of damage here unfortunately
3190s his armor already blitzed through as
3192s well euron needs to find a place to
3195s reset no healer for the team here
3197s so year on going to struggle to keep
3200s things alive or we're seeing that
3201s merciless Havoc come through uh but not
3204s able to connect on to anybody in ewg
3207s will lose a year on very very quickly in
3209s this fight gel Lilly with a massive
3211s Camry though coming back on the pole
3213s sword able to connect onto all three
3215s members of Team GG that merciless have
3218s it coming through 14 GG though will find
3222s Zhao Louis and that's going to be it as
3224s ewg gets sent back out uh from the realm
3227s of yangler to be forced to find a way to
3229s get rid of that young depletion team GG
3231s coming out on top that Perry was the
3235s most insane the repost into that other
3238s slam taking two players with him as well
3242s just dealing the most amount of Damages
3243s we're gonna see wbj's PP here going down
3247s to Casey's gen they are gonna solo
3249s ultimate here and it looks like they
3250s have found the other members of this
3252s team they are gonna just Blitz away here
3254s as we're seeing OC and team GG have that
3257s for Millions bro might buff for another
3259s 190 180 seconds here and oug does have
3262s that Draco storms they are going to want
3263s to do something about that as wbg's Jing
3265s and Sleepwalker are going to try and
3266s make their way a little bit further away
3269s from this fight as e-fag here does need
3273s to come with that revive here from tjl
3275s they did lose that realm of gang because
3276s we're gonna see oud sinew blue dagger
3279s they're going to be scale rushing up
3281s this mountain
3282s here trying to get away unless they're
3284s not trying to engage too quickly into
3285s this fight they did have somebody
3287s pressuring them from behind but it looks
3288s like they are gonna be backing off now
3290s and ratting it out it looks like using
3293s that ceiling interaction to give them a
3295s bit of extra hiding place on the roof as
3298s we're gonna see jl's effect here one
3300s bringing it back in they do have this
3303s Yang depletion for another three minutes
3305s and 10 seconds they will be alive if
3307s they do not find somebody to kill within
3309s these next three minutes and now three
3310s seconds they will go away as we're gonna
3313s see already team GG on to ewg's talk
3317s talk trying to make something happen and
3320s it looks like we're gonna see these alts
3321s coming out early here both the temi alt
3324s and the yushon all coming out right away
3327s try and deal as much damage as they can
3329s but we're gonna see the cicada all just
3331s dealing so much damage at that gold
3333s state through to see year round bringing
3335s out the tar uh the Tiana High early here
3339s but is not able to get grabs he's taking
3340s so much damage here looks like he's
3342s already and this could be it for
3345s team ewg ewg taking so much damage it
3348s looks like they only have one player
3349s left here and it looks like they might
3351s go down very fast ewg getting wiped out
3353s as the first team to be fully eliminated
3355s yeah team GG here gonna pick up all six
3358s of those eliminations as well onto ewgs
3360s we take a look back on the fight between
3362s team OC and team at JL inside the realm
3366s of Yang here is you getting completely
3368s pressured and got out here and this is
3370s exactly what we talked about right we
3372s talked about how important that Target
3373s acquisition is for these particular
3376s teams and of course we see OC here look
3378s to pick out the kurumi and as soon as
3381s the kurumi goes down all of uh the
3384s members of jail here lose their
3385s available healing and that team starts
3388s to crumble one after another OC coming
3390s through here gonna be able to lock down
3392s the members of JLS it turns into a 2V1
3396s and OC cleans up the elimination onto as
3398s and they walk away Victorious inside
3401s that realm of Yang here as we turn back
3403s to JL now still that Yang to in one
3405s minute and 26 seconds left remaining
3409s here you know we talk about this all the
3411s time so many of these teams carrying
3414s that repeating crossbow to deal with
3416s these t on highs and GG no exception of
3418s that they were able to use that uh
3420s repeating crossbow with the Venom tip to
3422s just completely melt through the TNI of
3424s the enemy team we're gonna see it again
3426s here event getting ready to pop up here
3428s GG not wanting to take the fight though
3430s yes they have that repeating crossbow to
3432s start doing some massive damage to Fang
3434s but they are Sans most of their
3436s ultimates because they just got out of a
3438s fight they no longer have that safety
3440s net uh from the Vermillion birds mate so
3443s they just need to buy as much time as
3445s they can here jail or yeah jail here
3448s with the Yang depletion Gigi doesn't
3450s want to be where they are as oug shows
3452s up for the third party as well GG needs
3456s to regroup after they've been separated
3458s in this fight and this turns out the
3461s best it possibly good for your GG as oug
3464s turns their attention to team
3466s jljl with mere seconds left remaining uh
3469s on that Yang depletion needs to pick up
3471s these eliminations very quickly they're
3473s able to find oug's SS and it doesn't
3476s look like they were able to get uh the
3479s soul Bloom off of the body though as we
3481s see the teleport come through and GG
3483s comes back in for the third party JL
3486s here no time left on the Yang depletion
3489s Fang it looks to find an elimination but
3491s unfortunately he's not going to the Yang
3493s depletion comes through and the members
3495s of Team GG will pick up both of those
3497s eliminations on to JL team GG off to a
3501s ripping start here to day
3507s hot out of the gates here we're already
3509s seeing them with 12 nine kill story or
3513s my mistake
3516s Nine Kills 12 kills up on the board as
3518s we're seeing Oh ug's the king with the
3521s only kill for team oug here
3523s as they're hiding in the celestra area
3526s just playing directionals we're gonna
3528s flip right back over to jdg taking out
3530s wbg's PVP here trying to get away from
3534s this in this 1v3 scenario we don't know
3536s where the rest of wbg is it looks like
3539s they are alive but they are nowhere to
3541s be found they're trying to get this kill
3544s and deal as much damage as possible to
3546s be able to come away with this and it
3548s looks like BP is gonna be taken out here
3550s pretty fast nothing really you can do
3553s against in a 1v3 scenario like that wbg
3556s has lost one of their players they still
3558s do have two other teammates alive as
3560s mesquia that gold to Cato old is so
3564s powerful coming back into this gang is
3565s OC's and Ali here coming it looks like
3568s they're playing pretty directional right
3570s now and they are going to be playing a
3572s lot of range fights here we're gonna see
3574s the Assassin's lungs come out with the
3575s Bell able to stop them this get almost
3578s getting in a bit of trouble here but
3579s using that Takeda all to get out of it
3581s very nicely here so we're gonna see an
3583s Assassin's launch the ticket all into
3585s the Assassins almost taking your analy
3586s and only getting that heal really fast
3589s here and then it is gonna end up getting
3591s the grab here trying to go from the
3593s second one almost gets the second one
3594s but it looks like mosquito is going to
3595s be able to bounce out of there and
3596s that's all it is gonna go down and only
3598s is gonna be able to go out here and GG
3600s just absolutely destroying
3604s look I mean GG's 330 here just putting
3608s in work you know this particular comp
3610s can play well into these Transformers
3613s comp but it's off the back of GG's 330
3615s that they are doing so extremely well
3617s right now that repeating crossbow with
3619s the Venom tip absolutely just deletes
3622s monkey every time we turn back to
3624s Annalee there was like another third of
3626s their uh life bar missing they didn't
3629s even get to get the one slam coming
3631s through for them so unfortunately we do
3634s get to see them just get absolutely
3636s blitzed through here and quite
3637s interesting because Gigi and uh OC were
3639s the two teams who won the first Realms
3641s of Yang and then both of those teams
3643s head into the second realm of Yang which
3645s is kind of counter to the strategy we've
3648s seen a lot of these teams uh recently
3650s doing where they've been avoiding uh the
3653s second stage of the realm of Yang
3655s because of the extremely high risk that
3658s there won't be any extra charms left to
3660s purchase uh in the Box to resurrect
3663s players so if you lose a player to Yang
3666s depletion that there's no way to buy
3668s them back even if you win the fight uh
3671s you lose that player for the rest of the
3672s game
3673s so very interesting to see both teams
3676s who won the first stage of Rome of Yang
3678s heading in towards that second stage but
3680s Gigi absolutely ripping through the
3683s competition here in game one that
3685s repeating crossbow with the Venom tip
3687s just shredding any hope of these other
3690s teams coming out on top so and one thing
3693s I just wanted to acknowledge really
3695s quickly is kla's qgg is using Focus
3698s slide
3700s um I don't know if anybody else saw that
3702s but if we see a focused side kill in the
3706s pro league I will be very happy myself
3708s and yeah it's undoubtable and undeniable
3711s what
3712s uh Team GG is putting through this game
3715s 15 kills right now in the game where the
3719s next player next team only has six OC
3723s with only six kills from the board bow
3724s down with four
3726s as they're seeing lower to the Lower
3728s Side of the leaderboard ewg JL and
3731s Alliance have all been knocked out
3733s already as we can see this fight coming
3735s in almost right awake here OC Slayer
3737s popping that alt right away trying to go
3739s for the double charge here on to Casey's
3742s hi Z and he gets the double slam onto
3745s Anna Lee but annaly is gonna bunk up
3747s right away but he gets grabbed out of a
3748s kiss so we are gonna see him get held it
3751s looks like he's not gonna be able to go
3752s down he is going to be able to end up
3753s marking up again and Casey's dead sold
3756s the baggage KZ able to come out with the
3759s Viper off is gonna get grabbed at our
3762s weekend coming in super clutch here and
3764s Casey's jet is gonna go down OC's and
3766s Ali here trying to get the grab off on
3768s the Casey's lily as unable to is finally
3771s gets the gravity as we're gonna see a
3773s lot of damage go on to kids he's really
3774s tries to go for the double Gap isn't
3775s able to get it tries to go for the
3777s re-grab here is not able to Lily able to
3779s escape here really quickly as the 2-1
3781s 2V1 Focus from Slayer and zooming on to
3785s that other KZ player hey right now and
3787s Lily The Last One Alive trying
3790s to just come away the 2v3 is we're gonna
3793s see a Perry come out Lily getting
3794s parried is gonna be the end of Team KZ
3796s here OC Slayer doing a very good job at
3799s just making sure they weren't going to
3800s fall to any charged attacks here we're
3802s gonna see another team coming in right
3804s on the third party here
3805s trying to charge through
3807s the Assassins don't go with absolutely
3811s racing through and at least half of
3813s Shield here should you trying to deal
3815s some damage against the ug's SS coming
3817s through with the Viper ultimate gear and
3820s gets the stun onto a couple of them
3822s zumbeck is gonna go down but the board
3823s of the fines from the the Z Pig coming
3826s out in OC Slayer and nle trying
3829s to deal some more damage onto the mizozi
3832s Slayer trying to get away as fast as
3834s possible they did get one of them so
3835s they are going to be short a player for
3837s the rest of this fight as wbg and wolves
3839s are now converging onto this fight so
3841s men still down not able to get resurrect
3844s resurrected and it looks like they won't
3846s be able to bring them back as wolves
3847s converges onto the scene
3849s yeah very unfortunate for the members of
3851s OC here is they were able to actually
3852s find those Soul blooms they desperately
3854s needed uh to get back in the game but
3856s they are going to lose their z-pin here
3858s and we just got done talking about how
3860s important the healer is for that
3862s Transformer comp and they are going to
3864s be down a Healer and really only Takeda
3868s to buy the monk any amount of safety
3871s and that cicada not going to be able to
3873s stop those repeated crossbone range
3875s weapons uh and they have no Demi to do
3877s that either so monk going to be very
3879s very vulnerable when they transform
3882s going forward here for team oh c but man
3885s all eyes on team GG they've got ballista
3888s control right now they've got 15
3890s eliminations under their belt we're only
3892s zoned for down to 28 players alive here
3895s lxm going to find another elimination
3898s here with the cannon onto KLC XZ the
3901s ballista control continuing to come
3903s through from GG as well miskia down
3906s below with that legendary dagger and
3908s that Assassin's lunge putting in work as
3910s they pick up OC Slayer as well OC going
3913s to be down to a single player left
3915s remaining alive after that GG gonna come
3918s in now and look to secure the Moore's
3921s blessing as well it's gonna be their
3923s first set of legendary armor for the
3925s team here they're gonna pick up a flamer
3927s as well as some soul Jades here Alex M
3930s more than happy a about this situation
3932s we see a couple players looking uh to
3934s pressure onto this but Gigi also has
3936s ballistic control top side as soon as
3938s that first ballista shot comes out the
3940s members of oug decide to back away
3942s Alexander had already secured themselves
3945s the Morris blessing there was no need
3948s for oeeg to pressure onto that and
3950s potentially take the ballista to the
3952s face GG right now with at least 17
3955s eliminations under their belt here and
3958s it's not even zone five yet Seb
3961s and that that is just a phenomenal thing
3963s especially since they're still alive and
3965s they're gonna be able to come into this
3966s late game get even more eliminations on
3969s the board and it looks like OC actually
3970s has been completely eliminated here they
3972s did lose their last player to team GG 17
3975s kills up onto the board and OCC they got
3978s nine kills but they're not gonna be able
3980s to place higher because they're now
3983s eliminated and now we see Team GG with
3985s 17 kills on the board they're able to
3987s put so many more and they are hungry for
3989s more especially these other teams as
3991s well they are also hungry for these
3993s kills because they need to put the
3994s points up on the board they're the ones
3996s struggling down at the bottom of the
3997s leaderboard right now for this game if
4000s they they need to put some more points
4002s up on the board or that placement is not
4004s going to save them they want to have
4005s those extra points for that kill
4007s multipliers GG is going to be converging
4009s up onto team found out here about it
4011s looks like there
4012s going to be playing this pretty calmly
4015s they're not gonna try and enter too
4017s quickly into a fight but we are going to
4018s see a burst arrow shot come out from
4020s Lion TT in the far back corner as muskia
4023s sending a couple pop shots off with the
4026s musket here
4027s looks like he's gonna be hitting jdg on
4029s the other side they are popping that Wu
4031s Chan f up so they they do not get hit by
4034s these shots as Kobe does need to heal as
4036s fast as possible before re-entering into
4038s this fight is they're gonna find AOW as
4040s well we're gonna see a no old Zone
4043s getting popped here by jdg super smart
4045s play by them here just make it so nobody
4048s in these teams can use their alts and
4050s just take advantage of a fight
4051s completely they are gonna have to rely
4053s completely on their F abilities and
4056s their
4058s gameplay with their team come upstairs
4060s we're gonna see the poison is gonna be
4062s dealing a lot of damage to KLA here it
4065s looks like they are going to be able to
4066s get their teammates back and jdg's Kobe
4068s the last member of their team alive is
4071s gonna end up getting sworn by KLA kale
4073s they did find them and Kobe is gonna go
4075s down KLA coming away with a couple more
4078s kills is oud bringing in the atomic nuke
4080s with the Viper up it doesn't get a
4082s single player here and they're now
4084s backed into a corner
4086s yeah that corner absolutely dangerous if
4088s you look there's legendary loot on all
4090s of those bodies but it is the worst
4093s possible place you can be as a team many
4095s of these players going to potentially
4096s give their lives just trying to claim
4099s some of those goodies team wolves still
4101s in this game only one elimination uh
4103s under their belt uh but still holding as
4106s strong as we get ready to head into the
4108s end game here taking a look
4109s ug uh with this building lockdown this
4111s particular building I feel like is a
4113s pretty deadly for teams heading into
4115s late game there's so many windows uh
4118s into that building where these teams can
4119s just take shots from so many different
4121s angles you feel like you have this net
4124s of safety uh with those walls but you
4127s really do not because of uh how small
4130s that particular building is and how many
4131s angles players uh can get on it from so
4134s many sides I'm gonna see Team GG more
4136s than happy to just sit top side here 17
4138s eliminations are there about GG at this
4140s point just needs to play for end game
4142s right like they don't have to force uh
4144s any fights they don't need to burn
4146s ultimate and leave themselves out in a
4148s vulnerable position they can just let
4150s some of these other teams start to do
4151s the work for them because they just want
4153s to make their 17 kills count for as much
4155s as humanly possible
4157s taking a look te top side here uh with
4161s the Swarm trying to put in work here txj
4164s looking to find damage on anybody that
4166s they can uh AOW coming into the Zone
4168s here are gonna lock down GG's 330 but
4170s 330 going to stay in it that merciless
4172s have it coming in huge the cicada old
4174s going to buy a little bit of safety for
4177s the rest of the members of AOW canceling
4180s out that merciles on it from ggs 3 30.
4182s uh Alex X going to come in and catch out
4184s Ping Tao uh from Team wolves here and
4187s buy themselves a second elimination for
4191s the game AOW finding themselves down a
4194s member here uh is going to continue to
4196s fall further and further behind his wvg
4198s Sleepwalker actually finds the double
4200s grab is able to pick up both uh two
4204s members of GG go down oh my goodness uh
4207s one of them to another team and then
4209s another one to aow's Zhang Wukong 3 30
4212s goes down GG down to a single player
4214s left for remaining alive here and it's
4216s gonna be very very hard for GG to get
4218s anybody back into this game given their
4221s position they're gonna have to hope that
4223s Misty holds on for as long as humanly
4226s possible and makes those 17 kills count
4228s for so much that said it's going to be
4231s really hard for any of these remaining
4233s teams to play catch up to team GG the
4237s closest teams team bowed on they would
4239s need 11 eliminations uh out of the lobby
4242s to even catch up in terms of kills here
4245s and there are not that many eliminations
4247s left to go around as we see more and
4249s more teams go down there's 12 possible
4252s eliminations on the board for team
4254s bow.te stuck out in the zone here baldow
4257s will pick up that elimination onto Tes
4259s txj and go to seven eliminations now
4262s only 13 possible eliminations left
4265s remaining on the board miskey is just
4268s trying to stay alive here trying to keep
4270s it moving so nobody sees them using that
4273s gold dagger the scale rushing to keep
4275s themselves Airborne here I like this
4277s strategy from this gear just stay as
4280s minimal as possible make it as hard as
4281s possible for any of these teams to catch
4283s me or hit me gxj here you know to monk
4286s up able to find a grab on to shoot on
4289s gonna get the slam through not able to
4291s find the second grab though looks for
4293s the re-gravel to shoot on unable to find
4295s it starts to turn their attention to wbg
4298s is unable to find the grabs they are
4301s looking for though Sleepwalker going
4303s very low on the other side of the circle
4304s they will find a member of Team wolves
4307s bench you gonna take a ton of damage
4309s here we're gonna see that long sword
4311s come through catching him out with the
4313s hepta detached from the legendary long
4315s sword Soulja they're doing a ton of
4317s damage to wolves bench you bet you able
4319s to find a little bit of a reset go top
4321s side but many players looking to
4323s capitalize on him Gigi's misky is still
4326s holding true here then Chu finally going
4328s to be gone out by a wbg's PP and will be
4331s eliminated by the pull sword here aoow
4333s John Wukong here going at top side with
4336s the monk looking to find those grabs the
4338s Swarm coming through just blitzing
4340s through their HP bar though they're able
4342s to find a slam on to about God's mood
4344s but no follow-up or re-grab from Jungle
4347s Kung jungle gong will find about us
4349s malaman though looking to find the
4351s double grab doesn't look like he's gonna
4352s be able to get it doesn't look like he
4353s was going to be able to get the slam but
4355s he was able to find that slam coming
4356s through T E's vvv will find the
4359s elimination on to malmon though GG misky
4361s is still alive here just in the mix
4363s using those scale rushes to keep
4366s everybody off of him and this is exactly
4368s what GG needs no team could possibly
4371s take away first place from Team GG now
4375s even bowed out with nine eliminations
4377s under the belt there's just not enough
4378s eliminations left in the lobby to make
4381s it happen here and GG's misky is still
4384s being alive is going to make it more and
4387s more difficult for these teams to do any
4389s sort of catching up te here uh going to
4392s pick up multiple eliminations onto oug
4394s and wbg's PP a slam odd about us moon
4398s moon going to be locked out in the zone
4400s with the heft to detach no place to go
4402s te continues to find an advantage here
4405s they go to four eliminations it's just
4408s oud
4409s t-e AOW and miskia all by his Lonesome
4413s here 14 GG miskia going to get knocked
4416s down here still holding on to their
4418s ultimate though this could be a really
4420s good position for GG's Biscuit the old's
4422s gonna come in he's just gonna shove
4423s everybody into their Zone gonna use the
4425s Abyssal or on the dagger here to start
4427s locking players down goes for the soul
4429s Bloom so that he can find another pop on
4432s the ultimate here we're gonna see the
4433s yodel from zinyu come through start
4435s tearing through these players Gigi's
4437s minski are going to be picked up by
4439s xinyu but there's no question at the end
4441s of the day it's all gonna come up team
4443s GG oh my god miskia with the place he
4448s was playing like a Matari this is like
4451s you know what I'm just gonna TP up here
4453s I'm gonna Dodge here not gonna catch me
4455s that Phantom step
4456s huge role in his just not getting
4459s grabbed we saw as soon as that Viper
4462s stunt came out and then wbg Sleepwalker
4465s was able to get the grab on that one
4466s team GGG player the rest of them were
4470s just not able to come through and keep
4472s themselves together as a team he got
4473s grabbed him all the way across the map
4475s across there was no way they were going
4477s to be able to get this to the teammate
4478s back they got down to two players and
4480s then they got down to one player biscuit
4482s putting in the work to keep them alive
4483s even picking up another kill putting
4485s them to a total of 18 kills in that
4487s final Circle was just the most amazing
4489s thing I've seen in a minute
4490s yeah this is an absolutely huge game for
4494s team GG coming into the final Circle
4496s there wasn't even maybe one team that
4498s could have possibly uh caught up to team
4500s GG here unfortunately there just wasn't
4503s enough eliminations left in the lobby
4505s for anybody to really make anything
4507s happen like we saw team te start to pop
4509s off there in the end but they go to you
4511s know four eliminations uh off the back
4514s of some of these other teams being
4515s eliminated I think bowed off uh goes out
4517s with nine eliminations is the second
4519s most eliminations in the entire Lobby
4522s it's just an absolutely massive game for
4525s team GG here you know coming in with
4527s that many eliminations 17 eliminations
4530s is where we see teams end the game when
4533s they've dominated a Lobby much less
4535s going into zone four with 17
4537s eliminations under your belt they just
4539s had this massive control unfortunately
4541s and we see one member get grabbed up by
4544s wbg and then on the other side of the
4547s map oug grabs another member the whole
4550s team gets complete separated they lose
4552s two members but mischia has the
4554s wherewithal to keep it alive to keep
4556s things going and even if he had gone out
4558s early it still is very likely that team
4560s Gigi comes out on top but miskia knows
4563s they want as many points as they can
4564s possibly get he's able to get to that
4566s final Circle do exactly what Takeda
4568s wants to do pop that ultimate shove
4570s everybody out into the Zone he picks up
4572s an 18th elimination and just keeps it
4575s going unfortunately there is a yodohime
4577s there so he's kind of forced to go back
4579s out into the Zone starts taking a lot of
4580s tick and the yodohime is seeing him as
4582s the threat throws a lot of damage onto
4584s him but miskia he's already done his job
4586s right he picked up another elimination
4588s he got the team all the way to top three
4590s that's all he really needed to do there
4593s to guarantee that GG is off to a huge
4596s start today
4599s and yeah that Yodo alt was the one thing
4601s that was just such a denture we saw I'm
4603s trying to go from Soul Bloom to Soul
4605s moves get as much of a fact as possible
4607s he's like no I'm not about to die and
4609s then yeah obviously it was sort of
4612s inevitable at the moment he was getting
4613s locked down by players on the ground in
4615s the Yodo with the demon blade it's just
4617s it's just sort of a a sticky situation
4620s getting caught between not only a rock
4622s and a hard place but a Yoda Walt and
4624s three other players it's thank you
4626s it's very difficult to get out of those
4628s types of scenarios so obviously amazing
4631s job right okay coming through even
4633s picking up a kill in the end just being
4635s able to
4637s break everyone's ankles and just slide
4639s through everyone I thought it was a
4641s phenomenal play we've got to give shout
4643s outs to as well team wbg with those
4645s grabs at the end and being able to put
4647s up a lot of kills especially as well
4649s team te when they were off on the top
4651s and they were just able to rain down on
4655s these other players sending the grabs
4657s and then using that long sword
4660s 1.0 to just take out the rest of these
4662s players that having their other player
4664s on the ground use that one long sword
4666s 1.0 to be able to just combo these
4668s players and take out teams I thought
4670s that was a phenomenal play
4672s oh yeah absolutely I mean team te came
4674s into that final circle with next to
4676s nothing being able to walk away with any
4678s number of eliminations when you get that
4680s you know top four top three level
4682s placement is huge for a team uh you know
4685s we've seen te in the past struggle with
4687s that being able to make it to final
4689s circle with no eliminations and they're
4691s not really able to find anything to make
4693s that placement worth it so te's got to
4695s be pretty happy that in the end they
4697s were able to find anything and I mean
4699s it's enough points that look they're
4700s going to be third place here that said
4702s it's kind of a pretty drastic difference
4704s between first and second place here uh
4706s it's almost night day it's almost double
4708s the amount of points uh for first place
4710s from second place is GG was with 18
4713s eliminations uh they're gonna walk away
4715s with a game score of 29.5
4718s oug in that second place position with
4720s eight eliminations we'll be walking away
4721s with a 15.8 and te with their six
4724s eliminations but the first place finish
4726s means that they're gonna walk away with
4728s a
4729s 14.6 te kinda disappointed in themselves
4733s they weren't able to scrape more
4734s together in this particular game but
4737s against the fact that GG already had 17
4739s eliminations going into final Circle
4741s they've got to be happy about the
4742s outcome that they got whatsoever said
4746s yeah and I think that they did an
4749s amazing job and I just wanted to see
4750s some of these other teams that are down
4752s at the bottom as well
4754s get a little bit higher up
4758s and like ewg KZ JL Alliance I want to
4761s see these teams put in a little bit more
4763s and get some more kills up onto the
4765s board here because you know we did see
4766s GG Dominate and it was amazing to see
4768s but we do love
4770s The Underdogs coming through and coming
4772s back up to the top because GG that
4774s they're always a strong team
4776s uh you know it's been very interesting
4778s Gigi has not been in the same team this
4781s season whatsoever they've struggled
4783s during the first two bi-weeklies in the
4785s third bi-weekly they finally started to
4787s come alive a little bit here and they
4788s are carrying that momentum over uh into
4791s the fourth bi-weekly you know the GG is
4794s typically a team that you know we talk
4795s about during season two last year sort
4798s of fell off they were a team that
4799s everybody talked about during season one
4802s of the nbpl I mean I think every time
4804s you looked at Team GG during season one
4806s they were at the very tippity top of the
4808s leaderboard in season two in World they
4810s just didn't perform as well as they
4812s possibly could and we've talked a lot
4815s this season about them potentially
4817s making this comeback to form we've seen
4819s glimmers and glimpses of it coming out
4822s from GG during the first two weeks but
4824s then they would kind of go back into
4826s that old GG you know mentality where
4829s they would fall off after having a big
4831s pop-off game so it's nice to see them
4834s able to have not only found momentum
4836s during hearing last bi-weekly but
4839s continue to carry that momentum over
4841s into this bi-weekly and continue to find
4844s success as they go you know deeper and
4847s deeper into the season this is what we
4850s have been asking for from Team GG and
4852s they have most certainly been delivering
4854s oh 100 and this play what I was talking
4857s about GG going down here but T is vvv
4860s with the hepta dash there able to just
4863s absolutely decimate the competition here
4866s so we're gonna see the MVP from Team GG
4870s is gonna be lxf on that temmie the
4873s temmie is a hero you see that V1 and V3
4877s is a hero that is so good for their
4879s control as well in this comp especially
4881s having their Monk or sorry having their
4884s cicada and their zipping
4886s and they're
4888s temmie sorry being
4890s the way that they were able to play this
4892s it was just absolutely amazing they
4893s Advanced skill the group heel Shades
4895s helping themselves out as well
4897s and I think the reason their temmie was
4900s a very great way for them to be able to
4902s control these fights even though we did
4903s see mischia obviously carrying away at
4906s the end
4907s Alexa did get the more amount of kills
4909s and did have the more amount of assists
4911s here he did have 10 assists up on the
4913s board so when he was there he was
4915s dangerous oh yeah for the time that he
4918s was alive he had 100 kill participation
4920s for his team he literally participated
4922s in every single kill that that team
4923s locked together for themselves and like
4926s you said you know Timmy here really
4928s playing a hyper support role for the
4930s team as they already have a z pink
4932s feeling but he locks in that group heal
4935s and that advanced heel to be able to
4937s lock heels together for the team and it
4939s kind of makes sense for them to go ahead
4941s and put that onto the temi uh given the
4943s fact that he can just drop that ultimate
4945s and a lot of time the players will look
4946s to get out of that ultimate right so if
4949s he's able to go ahead and get that down
4951s and teams looks to back away temmie is
4953s in the optimal position to go ahead and
4955s use the group heal in advance heel to
4957s start topping his team up while they
4959s actually can pressure onto the player's
4961s lockdown in his ultimate if you noticed
4964s as well most of his damage coming
4965s through from the pole sword where he's
4967s able to find players on the edge of that
4970s ultimate and then immediately uh hit
4972s them with the quick uh 1.0 charge coming
4975s through from that uh horizontal on the
4978s long or sorry the pole sword not the
4980s long sword which does a ton of damage
4982s when you're able to follow it up and
4983s guarantee it and when you have the
4985s safety of a player lockdown in your
4987s Sandstorm that's exactly what temi can
4989s do and we saw him do that a couple of
4991s times especially uh in some of the
4993s fights uh with OC in the mid game there
4996s so team GG really just pulling
4998s everything together here uh of course uh
5001s lxm also comes through massively
5004s um for the team but 330 another person I
5006s want to talk about that did extremely
5008s well for team GG every time we watch
5011s Team GG engage with the Transformer comp
5014s 330 was lasered onto the monk with that
5018s repeating crossbow and of course the
5020s Venom tip coming through and we just
5022s watched monks melt in the face of that
5024s right you know probably one of the most
5026s uh underrated Soul Jades uh in trios is
5030s gotta be that Venom tip for the
5031s repeating crossbow just for how quickly
5034s it can shred through the monk we watch
5036s that first realm of Yang fight as soon
5039s as euron munked up the other team you
5042s know had popped the Tamil they countered
5045s with their own Tamil and 330 just stood
5047s in the back and euron's HP bar literally
5049s disappeared almost instantaneously he
5052s was forced out of that Monk's
5053s transformation and when he came out of
5055s that monk transformation he had the
5057s tiniest sliver of health and he could
5060s not do anything to back his team up he
5062s couldn't get any of the slams he was
5064s looking for he couldn't create the
5065s pressure that monks looked to create for
5068s these teams and because of that Gigi was
5070s able to just steamroll through ewg they
5073s come out of the realm of Yang they
5075s immediately go hunt ewg back down a
5078s second time and eliminate them and they
5080s just keep that ball rolling Gigi takes
5084s the risk of going into the second realm
5086s of Yang and this is something we've been
5088s talking about uh all season is how so
5091s many of these teams have shifted away
5093s from even participating in the second
5096s realm of Yang because when you come out
5098s with that Yang depletion yes you
5101s technically you know have a safety net
5102s you can keep your team around if you're
5104s able to get those Soul blooms the
5106s problem being is many many of these
5109s teams will come out of that second realm
5110s of Yang to find that there are no more
5113s charms uh those rebirth charms to be
5116s purchased from the shop meaning that
5118s once one of their players dies in a
5120s fight where they're trying to get those
5121s Soul blooms to keep themselves running
5124s that player is gone there's no
5126s resurrections left available on the map
5128s for them and it's not like you're going
5130s to go secure one of those late game
5132s Morris lessons with only two players
5134s you're just out of a player entirely so
5138s to cgg aggressively go ahead and
5140s pressure that second realm of Yang the
5142s level of confidence that this team had
5144s for game one was insane
5148s they can bring this energy into these
5150s next games as well they are going to
5152s dominate the day coming through with if
5155s they if they if they have the same
5156s performance averaging out at 18 kills a
5159s game
5160s they're gonna put huge numbers up on the
5162s boards none of like the wood none of
5166s what we've seen before we haven't seen
5168s TGG come out this season I don't think
5170s with
5171s this many pop-off games that they keep
5174s consistent
5175s yeah no that's kind of been the big
5177s thing for GG right is they'll have like
5179s these pop-off moments in the the first
5182s two bi-weeklies
5184s and then we're like okay cool we're
5186s gonna see GG make this sort of return to
5188s form and they just were never able to
5190s follow up on those sort of pop-off games
5193s in to our third bi-weekly we started to
5196s see that pattern where they were
5197s starting to able to kind of capitalize
5200s on their previous successes and start to
5202s keep that ball rolling and now coming
5205s into this bi-weekly clearly they're able
5208s to keep the momentum going they come
5210s into this game and have just an absolute
5212s massive game uh right out of the gate so
5215s hopefully we will get to see them
5217s continue that level of dominance
5219s throughout the day
5220s and we can watch them walk away with
5222s multiple MVPs for the day instead of
5225s just one
5225s and yeah we always love having a back to
5228s back for even a three-peat because you
5230s know when when we see the three Pete's
5232s go off we we start to go a little bit
5234s Rowdy on our ends here
5236s having being able to consistently play
5239s in this game is one of the most
5241s difficult things I think you need to do
5243s because there's so many factors that
5244s it's like you can't just say oh I'm a
5246s better player I can win nine out of the
5248s ten times there's always something
5250s that's going to change the scenario
5251s whether it be terrain whether it be
5253s environment whether it be your mental
5255s that's why this we played the games
5257s that's why it's not just a simulation it
5259s keeps us all on our toes it keeps these
5261s players
5262s yeah importantly with naraga as well
5265s right is at the at the end of the day
5267s you know it all comes down to the
5269s decision making uh of the team it's it's
5273s so important for these teams you could
5275s be realistically the best skilled player
5280s in the league and you can still lose
5283s fights to bad decision making you you
5286s can have the best you know we we call it
5288s micro right just your your raw skill and
5291s your ability to perform things in the
5292s game you can have the best skill and
5294s still end up losing bites because you
5296s make a bad decision and we saw some
5298s teams do this last week where they just
5301s were making absolutely you know terrible
5303s decisions team te being one of those
5306s teams you know we talked about j-team
5309s came out on top you know during the
5311s bi-weekly final for our third bi-weekly
5314s here but it was off the back of te
5316s making terrible decisions te had set
5320s themselves up to walk away a with a
5323s second bi-weekly Championship a back to
5326s back dub for team te and then they just
5329s started to play extremely poorly in
5333s terms of decision making and it costs
5335s them the entire bi-weekly final yes they
5338s still placed well you know I'm giving
5340s them a lot of proud but they could have
5342s placed at the top and got it back to
5345s back and that's why decision making is
5347s so important for these teams at the end
5350s of the day anybody can walk away on Top
5353s Gear in The Rocker blade points we get
5355s ready to lock in for game number two
5357s we're gonna take a look here at the
5359s decision making the teams have in terms
5361s of the hero selection going forward for
5365s the day here uh let's see what these
5367s teams get ready to lock in I'm very
5369s interested uh to see KZ are we're
5373s running this again KZ we we scored a big
5376s fat zero in this last game and KZ is
5379s gonna run back
5380s this same comp with the Viper that it
5384s was so questionable for them to run in
5386s game one here uh battle gonna be running
5388s the Takeda z-ping Matari again as well
5391s gonna take a look over to team GG who's
5395s gonna be running that very classic uh
5398s Viper comp here that sort of counter
5400s Transformer comp and this is something
5403s we typically see coming out on this
5404s first map of hollow Roth we see a little
5406s bit more of those counter Transformers
5408s come through because we start to see
5410s teams like ewg playing what we call that
5412s pacific rimcom where they're running uh
5415s the mech and the monk Transformers uh
5418s coming through and Viper able to deal
5420s with both of those players and keep them
5424s from buying themselves back with the
5426s safety of the Mecca and of course the
5428s stun being able to stun out the
5430s Transformers as well
5432s and yeah that'd be a cool thing to see
5435s you know what I want to see rude what's
5438s that I want to see somebody go triple
5440s Transformers I know it's not gonna
5442s happen
5444s but triple Transformers you Sean Faria
5447s monkcon because we're gonna take a look
5449s at these spawns really quickly we are
5450s going to see a lot of people over at the
5452s Imperial Village some of them by the
5454s waterfall they close to the southern
5456s area of the map here we're gonna see
5459s by that city of Tang let me see Team
5462s Gigi in the city of tank a couple of
5464s players over by flute Pluto isn't a gold
5466s Zone and we are going to see one team
5469s on the puzzle area where they are going
5471s to be able to have a chance to get that
5473s red armor and you know if you get the
5474s red armor on your monk it's gonna be
5476s very difficult to bring him down
5478s compared to bringing him down which is
5480s blue or purple armor so we're gonna flip
5482s things off right away here team j d g is
5486s gonna be facing off against JL right off
5489s the bat but it looks like they're not
5489s going to try and engage too quickly
5491s shall we already with no weapon but he
5494s does have that purple armor here they
5495s are dropping some rage and some Grays to
5498s go around enough to feed the family here
5500s as we're gonna see Alliance coming in
5502s and sharking jl's as quickly here
5505s bringing him around and it is a 3v1
5508s situation already we're gonna see the
5509s app come out and jl's as is gonna go
5512s down not in time his teammates came in
5515s but they were not fast enough for these
5518s them to come back into this fight here
5520s and it looks like Alliance is gonna back
5521s off here as they do see a couple other
5523s players jdg is gonna be entering in here
5525s and Alliance is lucky is going to get
5527s super low and it looks like jdg is be
5529s able to take out lucky as you want able
5532s to come through alliance's lead coming
5534s with a crazy Parry into the dishes Mike
5536s and we're gonna see Juan as well go down
5538s from Alliance the ultimate is gonna be
5541s able to come out here from alliance's
5542s lid last player alive on that team it
5545s looks like gpg's LSR is going to be
5546s hiding on to the side here doesn't see
5548s them this could be a fight once you want
5550s is gonna be able to revive the rest of
5552s his team here as the others have been
5553s preoccupied with jdg JL if jdg are gonna
5558s be taking this fight up early tries to
5560s go for the Perry is not going to be able
5562s to come away with it here and one member
5564s of JL is gonna go down here it looks
5566s like this is going to be their last
5567s members you able to come away with a
5568s huge Parry on the scalp we shall we is
5571s going to end up taking that away and one
5573s thing is gonna go down as well because
5574s KLA is coming in on the third party
5576s look I I don't care what anybody says
5578s here jail takes the moral Victory here
5581s they were able to catch out Alliance is
5583s lucky not once but twice with bear traps
5587s Alliance is lucky just walks into them
5589s as they chase JL and if you've ever been
5592s caught in one of those bear traps you
5595s know how terrible that feeling is so
5598s jails uh a.s over here gonna gonna take
5601s the moral Victory if you will over some
5604s of these uh other teams do you caught
5607s out a little bit here but JL still
5608s holding on here all three with the
5611s resurrections by the way Z was able to
5613s get the resurrections onto all three
5615s members of uh JL and they weren't forced
5618s to use those early resurrections
5619s unfortunately we do see a.s go down KLA
5622s giving a Chase here and Fang really
5624s trying to find that double grab here for
5627s the members of jail unfortunately it
5628s doesn't look like they're gonna get
5629s lucky twice and find it as KLA will
5632s clean up all three eliminations this
5634s time on to JL so JL finally going to be
5638s forced to use those resurrections and
5640s head back to the soul Altar and while we
5642s speak to the members of KZ being
5645s eliminated and going to find themselves
5646s heading back to the soul altar as well
5649s wbg waiting in the wings looking to
5651s pressure on with a third party here on
5653s to KLA KLA not in the best of situation
5656s they've been third partied multiple
5658s times here so it's gonna be a question
5660s of how many ultimates do they have left
5662s it looks like they have the temi
5664s ultimate to make something happen here
5665s ykc gonna go extremely low here going to
5669s be able to find that ultimate in the
5670s final seconds before he's able to be
5673s eliminated by the Yoda he may ultimate
5676s coming in at wbg just trying to take
5679s back control of this fight but KLA
5682s able to find multiple eliminations and
5684s we will see wbg be forced to use that
5687s wu-chan Ulta to get out and buy
5690s themselves back in the game here KLA
5692s survives yet another third party and
5695s finds themselves ahead with seven
5697s eliminations here in game number two
5702s and this is going to be uh crazy seven
5706s eliminations for kle already
5709s two eliminations for team GG
5713s on the board so they are still on the
5715s top with their total points in these two
5718s games but they do need to put a couple
5720s more points onto the board if they want
5721s to stay consistent with their last game
5724s here OC with four kills up on the board
5726s and we're gonna come into a huge fight
5727s here as wbg already back into it is
5729s gonna get the stun off onto one of these
5732s players here and it looks like Jake is
5734s gonna try and gets a kill but he isn't
5736s able to go off CXC it's gonna get
5738s stunned here trying to get that charge
5740s attack and oh my goodness PP is going to
5743s go down and KLA able to pick up a couple
5745s more kills in this fight he tried to go
5748s for the Abyssal Oracle was not able to
5750s make the play
5752s yeah a huge start here for KLA looking
5754s to have uh Repeat Performance of Team
5757s GG's last game where they're already off
5760s to 10 eliminations before zone two shows
5764s up if KLA can continue this pressure and
5767s keep finding eliminations we might have
5770s a record-breaking game on our hands only
5772s time will tell though turning your
5774s attention now to team wolves and uh Team
5777s wolves here off on the outskirts uh not
5780s really looking to take those early
5782s fights here and this is typical team
5785s Wolves of what we've seen lately this
5786s season I really don't know uh what's
5789s been going on uh with the team wolves
5791s they've not been able to find any
5793s traction whatsoever here in the spring
5795s split for themselves and uh it's almost
5798s like uh their communication has just
5800s Fallen apart every time we look to team
5803s wolves they're not really uh communing
5806s communicating the way we're used to
5807s seeing team wolves communicate they're
5810s they're getting themselves caught out
5812s members are making mistakes that they
5815s usually would not and it looks like they
5818s just aren't on the same page whatsoever
5820s so maybe we'll see them find something
5823s here in this game but I I don't think
5826s we're going to unfortunately I think uh
5829s they're gonna wash out in this season if
5832s you will and then during the break maybe
5834s they'll uh figure out what they've got
5836s going on and come back for season two a
5839s much much stronger team bowed out here
5840s gonna find themselves onto wdg moon
5842s gonna take a couple cheeky little
5844s nunchucks head off of wbg's Jing and
5847s then use that teleport to go ahead and
5848s get out doesn't want to uh overextend
5851s themselves and find themselves being 3v1
5854s while they wait for their team to get
5855s their Moon playing it very very safe
5857s we'll come back in with those nunchucks
5859s yet again find some more cheeky hits
5861s onto the members of wbg Jing trying to
5864s cover for the team here with the
5865s yodohime ultimate not really finding too
5868s much success off the back of it taked
5870s old coming in from baldos maumon going
5872s to throw Jing off balance your PV just
5874s going to get completely blitzed through
5876s here and uh wbg gonna be forced to use
5878s that Wu channel to make an escape here
5881s PP saved by the wuchan uh from wbg's
5885s Team here and about a not happy about
5888s the fact that they couldn't pick up at
5889s least one elimination in that fight
5892s and yeah it's always unfortunate when
5894s you can't pick up one here and it looks
5895s like PP is going is the main focus of
5898s the team whenever they're getting into a
5899s fight he's always the one going the
5901s lowest in these fights I don't know
5903s whether it's the fact that he's just the
5905s the certain hero he's playing the target
5906s selection of these other players they're
5909s always going to try and Target that
5911s Viper first I guess but the way that
5915s they have it is that they're just always
5916s able to get out within the nick of time
5918s able to take away the power from that
5922s these other teams have over the budget
5925s no way so we're gonna flip around taking
5928s a look at this map there nobody is super
5930s condensed closer to that southern side
5932s of the map the southwest side of the map
5936s they've got like a couple of trio teams
5937s coming through as we're gonna see this
5939s Moon made that te has placed themselves
5941s I was a little bit nervous for them
5942s they're about to jump right into the
5944s band without
5945s any hesitation but it is theirs
5947s understandably as txj is running that
5949s Perryville again and that is one thing
5951s that Wows me
5952s the the Perry belt coming into this game
5955s I guess it's just that people don't
5956s expect the Perry Bell to come out when
5958s you're in a super condensed fight you're
5961s waiting to see that red Flash and if you
5962s see the Bell or you're saying okay I'm
5964s gonna throw blue at it right I'm gonna
5965s clink off what's that's the worst that's
5967s gonna happen but no txj coming with the
5969s Perry belt just for that extra bit of
5972s punishment that they can give they do
5974s lose the ability to combo break which is
5976s something that they might not want to
5979s use we're going to see both of these
5981s monk alts come out right away here looks
5983s like they're gonna burn them really fast
5985s as qgg already getting the grab off
5987s you're gonna see the double Demi all
5988s come out and it looks like txj is gonna
5991s be able to come out Victorious through
5992s that fight he's able to get the stun off
5995s and it looks like ykc is gonna get
5997s grabbed and is gonna go down fairly fast
5999s here taking out
6002s the other members of qgg of KLA sorry
6005s qgg is gonna go down and it is now cxz
6009s last member alive and they were able to
6012s just play this so phenomenally Casey is
6014s going to go down so fast
6018s turning now to AOW going to head to
6020s Hattie or with the ewg ewg just trying
6022s to break away from this fight Joe Louis
6024s going to go ahead and go in to Cannon
6027s form here taking some shots on to the
6029s members of AOW Iran unfortunately uh
6032s already eliminated here for the members
6034s of ewg and ewg really just doesn't have
6038s the space to try to get that
6039s Resurrection uh for their team as
6042s multiple teams come through for the
6043s third and fourth party here ewg is just
6046s going to be forced to leave them behind
6048s about uh on the chase looking to try to
6050s clean up these two members from ewg as
6053s many of the other teams look to engage
6055s with each other but it's jdg coming in
6057s onto the members of Team bowed that
6059s might buy ewg the space that they needed
6062s to get away here we're going to see
6063s bowed out lose lion TT and the other two
6067s members about uh Now find themselves in
6069s the exact same situation the ewg is in
6071s and they are going to force to be on the
6073s run and look at this xiaohui knows that
6076s valdost hiding somewhere look to check
6079s all of the bushes here the question is
6081s will they find the members about uh down
6084s below back here it looks like is not
6086s going to take the chance as they break
6088s away out of line of sight and look to
6090s escape from that situation turning now
6093s it's a team at JL
6095s who's engaged with the members of
6097s oug the king already being eliminated
6100s here Fang will find himself completely
6102s focused down by U Xin Yu and JL is going
6105s to lose two members here and oug flips
6108s this fight on its heads in you and now
6110s just a single player left remaining
6112s alive here for JL and unfortunately that
6115s is going to be it as the members of oug
6117s are able to find success and not only
6120s flip the fight onto JL but eliminate
6122s them from the lobby
6124s but it looks like as we're flipping over
6126s ewg has round themselves in a little bit
6128s of a pickle here as AOW as well trying
6131s to join in on the action it looks like
6134s AMW has lost a member but Emoji does
6137s have their three members still alive and
6138s it looks like jdg has got one of their
6141s members straying a little bit far but
6143s playing so far into the Zone here they
6146s gotta watch their consumables if they
6148s lose heels and their their Shadow
6150s corruption damage reduction if their
6153s heels lose their effect
6155s is they they are in a whole lot of
6158s trouble Shelby here taking a lot of
6160s damage we're gonna see both of these
6161s alts come out quickly or sorry just the
6164s single alt come out and it looks like
6166s they might be able to take a lot of
6168s damage away they're trying to go for the
6169s charge he's able to get it the F comes
6171s out from the tumult here he is gonna get
6173s caught they are going to be able to use
6175s that ultimate ability to ultimately Come
6178s Away With The Kill onto this fight he is
6180s still losing a lot of Health he is in
6182s the zone it looks like Ebon is gonna try
6184s and go back from him it is only a solo
6186s chasing him as we're gonna flip back
6187s over to KLA they do have that Yang
6189s depletion they need to get this kill ykc
6192s trying to make something happen onto DVD
6194s is not able to come away with the kill
6196s DVD is gonna be super low here trying to
6198s come back around and CXC is gonna be
6200s able to come over with the kill qgb
6201s trying to make something happen with the
6202s bull sword gets a huge Barry onto lyd
6204s and the double charge
6207s rub the full sword able to take away the
6210s life of these te players and KLA back in
6213s the game now no more Yang depletion and
6215s it looks like we're gonna see wolves
6216s going out here as bauda is gonna engage
6218s quickly but it looks like they're gonna
6220s back off relatively fast they don't want
6222s too much of the smoke that's coming here
6224s as AOW Kong is going to go down to the
6227s storm
6228s yeah about us still keeping her alive
6230s here unfortunately uh no eliminations
6233s under their belt bow down really one of
6236s those teams also struggling this season
6238s uh to find their place going forward as
6240s we take a look back at the replay here
6242s Alliance looking to go head-to-head with
6245s the members of Team wolves and Gigi
6247s trying to get inside that realm of Yang
6249s we're gonna see multiple members of Team
6251s wolves completely caught out by the
6253s members of GG Alliance you're trying to
6257s clean up some of these eliminations as
6259s well is going to engage very quickly
6261s using that grapple to pressure on and do
6264s Alex M here from Team GG the roller
6268s actually going to come around and help
6270s clean up some of those eliminations and
6272s team wolves gonna find themselves in a
6275s 1v3 situation inside the realm of Yang
6279s man that's not a place you want to find
6281s yourself here in the pro league they're
6283s now back uh two team Alliance has been
6286s able to clean up a couple of
6287s eliminations three eliminations
6289s under their belt as they look to
6291s continue to find more taking a look at
6293s the top of the order here KLA has been
6295s able to find another three eliminations
6298s for themselves going all the way to 13
6299s eliminations and we're not even in to
6302s zone three yet we have zone two
6304s collapsing on to zone three as we speak
6305s which means the second set of Realms of
6307s Yang gonna come forward and the question
6309s is will KLA look to find themselves
6312s around Yang it looks like they are
6313s moving towards one but they're gonna
6315s have to fight the members of Team te if
6318s they want it wbeg also waiting in the
6320s wings looking to take that second realm
6322s of Yang here as we get ready to head in
6326s to zone three it doesn't look like any
6330s of these teams want to try to secure
6332s that Moore's blessing team GG the only
6334s team really in a position to be able to
6336s head there and secure it if they want to
6338s and it looks like that may be exactly
6340s what they plan to do again KLA and te
6343s both here looking aboard that realm of
6345s gang but it's going to be KLA no
6347s questions who find themselves inside the
6348s realm of
6349s not going to be able to follow up as we
6352s did see another team on the other side
6353s looking to head in the realm of gang but
6355s it looks like maybe they're gonna ignore
6357s it in KLA who gets this Morris blessing
6359s inside the realm of Yang for free and
6361s this could be a huge pickup for the team
6363s that already has 13 eliminations to CXC
6365s Still rocking only that blue armor and
6368s the weapon and purple armor inside there
6370s could be huge for the members of KLA
6373s we're gonna see wbg's jig on the top of
6375s the ballista dealing a whole bunch of
6378s damage to team gg gg using that F
6381s ability from the Wu Chen to be able to
6383s block lots of this fire it looks like
6385s wgspp is gonna be able to get a free
6387s unlock onto this box GG has backed off
6389s it looks like mesquia is going to go
6391s down to oug's the king here they're
6393s gonna try and revive him pretty fast
6394s here looks like he goes for the one two
6396s three the unsuspecting one two three
6399s Miss Kia is going to be able to get
6400s revived here is going to end up 3 30
6404s going down very fast here as bow da
6407s sharking onto this kill as fast as
6409s possible picking up their first kill up
6411s the game onto GG's 330. looks like
6413s they're gonna be trying to find the rest
6415s of this team as fast as possible KLA
6417s getting that free Mystic mic and it
6418s looks like nobody else is gonna be
6420s getting these Buffs for the rest of the
6422s game here so we're gonna see Kayla with
6424s 13 kills up on the board GG with four
6428s jdg with eight the rest with four three
6431s and one nobody with two kills up on the
6434s board here's we're seeing lots of these
6435s teams have been eliminated already as
6436s we're gonna see Gigi fighting for his
6439s life right now KLA sharking him down
6441s fast and it looks like lxm is going to
6444s go down ladies and gentlemen putting up
6445s another kill onto the board KLA is
6448s pulling a team GG from what they did
6450s last game is mesquia last player a lot
6452s let's see if they're able to pull off
6454s the Strat that they did the last time is
6456s we're gonna see wbg actually picking up
6458s a draco store buff here it's Miss gay
6460s here just setting the traps in that
6462s Imperial village and we're gonna see oud
6465s over on the side here couple of kills up
6468s on the board but a bush camp and a bush
6470s Camp nonetheless they've got some
6472s stacked Jades my goodness yeah
6475s oug absolutely in a great position here
6479s for themselves not as many illuminations
6481s as they want to be but in terms of gear
6483s doing pretty good they could use another
6486s purple set of armor for the team here
6488s but multiple Legendary Weapons just
6490s quite literally a plethora of uh Jades
6494s for themselves KLA though uh in a really
6497s really good position looking to have a
6499s performance like Gigi had and
6500s unfortunately for team GG uh they find
6503s themselves yet again down to just miskia
6505s but this game with only four
6507s eliminations under their belt instead of
6508s the 17 eliminations that they had during
6511s the previous game uh we're gonna see
6514s here wbg gonna be caught out here by
6516s GG's miskia uh miskia though
6519s unfortunately by himself with the rest
6520s of the members of wbg show up looking to
6524s capitalize on this and unfortunately I
6525s don't think miskia going to be able to
6527s escape here even utilizing that attack
6530s there with the movement off of the staff
6532s it's not going to be enough wbg picks up
6535s the straggler and GG will not find the
6539s second game that they were looking for
6541s and obviously you know it's not what
6543s they wanted but it's still okay at the
6545s end of the day they still have a couple
6548s more games to come back and this is only
6551s day one of Trio so they still have
6554s they still have a lot more days right
6556s now
6557s to bring themselves back into this fight
6559s you know having one off game is not
6561s going to detriment their entire
6564s bi-weekly hopefully this is what you can
6566s say because they could offset them for
6568s the rest of the day but obviously
6570s consistency is something that is hard to
6572s keep up so we aren't going to hold it
6573s against them too much so we're gonna
6574s flip over to te vvv txj and lyd on this
6579s side still over by the Imperial Village
6582s sending some shots off into these bushes
6584s trying to see if there's any stragglers
6586s out in these areas not hitting a single
6589s person because there are nobody in the
6590s bushes they've got some stacked Jades as
6593s well this team is looking pretty strong
6596s and their comp is ready to go they they
6598s just need to get into one of these
6600s fights here as we're seeing these teams
6601s are pretty spread out right now and they
6603s are going to be not trying to condense
6605s themselves there are still 24 players
6607s left up onto the board here and there is
6609s 10 minutes left as we are closing in
6611s onto Circle three right now going into
6614s Circle Four after this
6616s we are going to be seeing these fights
6618s come out pretty closely as we're going
6619s to see the frost coming over this area
6622s as well which means they are going to be
6623s losing their ultimates if they can't
6624s find a fire it looks like Alliance has
6627s found a fire so they will not have that
6629s rage loss that is going to be affecting
6631s them through this game as they do also
6633s have a whole bunch of sold eggs to pick
6634s from it it looks like everybody's
6636s stacked on Jades today
6639s yeah it absolutely huge on the Jades and
6643s this is something we've seen uh you know
6644s transitioning at the start of the Season
6646s we saw a lot of teams trying to hold
6647s those dark tide coins uh to buy
6649s teammates back but because of how fast
6651s uh those Resurrection charms get bought
6654s off out of the box we're seeing more and
6656s more teams just roll Soul Jades uh
6659s trying to find missing pieces that they
6661s need like the Venom tip uh that we saw
6663s GG's 330 have last game where a lot of
6666s teams uh opting to bring the musket in
6669s looking for that armor Pierce as well as
6671s the slow shot in combination to just
6673s completely delete players out from
6675s across map repair roll also being very
6678s important for players using those
6680s cannons trying to maintain the uptime on
6683s those ranged weapons to just continue to
6686s Pummel uh multiple teams down at range
6689s it's been something we've seen many many
6691s of these teams start to do
6693s yeah and when you have repair roll
6695s especially even if you're in a melee
6697s fight and you're against like a saywoo
6699s Chan and your your weapons get very very
6701s low
6702s on durability you're able to just roll
6704s Boom weapons fixed ready to go and I
6707s know it happens a lot less but it is one
6709s of those crucial Jades you want to have
6711s for the range for the range chairs we're
6714s seeing jdg lots of these teams are
6716s pretty spread to the outskirts here as
6718s the other circle is going to start to
6720s come in and OC in the prime real estate
6723s location but KLA is getting absolutely
6726s decimated because they're caught between
6727s jdg and Alliance
6730s on the low ground with jdg having The
6733s High Ground here and his Alliance is
6734s going to be able to come away with this
6735s Morris blessing looks like they've
6737s popped the temi ultimate here
6739s to be able to come away they said you
6740s know what we're just gonna guarantee
6742s this for us we're popping the Timmy out
6743s no one's getting through we're getting
6745s the legendary armor they're getting the
6746s cannon a couple of gold soldiers looks
6748s like they're not gonna take them
6749s but they do have the options to get them
6751s later they aren't going to go back over
6753s to the fires keep their ultimates alive
6755s here during the season cannon fire is
6757s going to be raining on top there it
6760s looks like they are going to go for a
6761s bit of an armor swap here as te down
6763s below not wanting to engage too quickly
6766s onto this fight they do have to watch
6768s out they do want to get that fire back
6770s uh pretty soon otherwise they're gonna
6773s start losing their ultimate looks like
6774s that Frost Zone has gone down so they
6776s will not have to worry about that
6777s anymore here as they are going to try
6779s and hop over that looks like they might
6782s start engaging very quickly
6784s yeah oug here looking to hold on to a
6788s position for themselves as well not
6789s wanting to pressure too hard onto the
6792s box or team at te on the back side here
6794s more than happy to move under the tower
6797s here and uh just hold a little bit of a
6800s safe space Oh ug looking to just walk
6803s their way into the vinyl Circle and pop
6805s off with the TN High his return now to
6808s team OC uh on the back side of the map
6810s using those ranged weapons to keep the
6812s pressure on to team at KLA KLA really
6817s having a quite the phenomenal game here
6819s 14 eliminations of it about and they are
6821s playing the late game here with the uh
6824s Transformers and a Takeda available to
6827s them here so hopefully Takeda and Timmy
6829s will be able to keep ykc alive long
6831s enough uh for them to start to pop off
6834s and find the double grabs in those final
6836s circles wbg looking to pressure the
6839s space over by where jdg was jdg being
6842s evicted to buy the rain shots coming in
6844s from multiple teams and just looking to
6846s back away OC on the other side over here
6850s from wbg analy just trying to keep the
6853s pressure up onto wbg not letting them
6855s walk in and take that space for free we
6858s are zone four collapsing on to Zona five
6861s we're gonna see if any of these teams
6863s are gonna be forced together only 24
6865s players left remaining alive another
6868s very fast-paced game here in game number
6871s two
6873s and it looks like KLA sending a lot of
6876s rain shots from this cannon onto team
6879s bow down taking away a lot of their
6881s Shield but it looks like it's not going
6882s to be enough for them to come away with
6883s any sort of kill here looks like they're
6885s gonna heal up go for a bit of a reset
6887s before re-engaging onto this fight it
6890s looks like there is another team on the
6891s third party as all of these teams start
6893s to condense look at the terrain on this
6895s circle OC is still have that is still on
6898s that Prime real estate and everybody is
6900s going to be losing range so we're not
6902s going to see as many alts come out we're
6904s not going to see as many of these
6905s players bringing out crazy amounts
6909s of these ultimates just coming back over
6910s and over again because this Frost it is
6912s going to be running for another 23
6914s seconds
6915s it is going to be a huge detriment to
6917s them for now lots of these teams do have
6919s that fire signed up buff which allows
6921s them to keep ultimate even while in
6923s these Frost zones keep their rage up but
6926s it could be difficult once they start to
6929s lose it
6930s to that frostbite as OC is raiding
6933s cannon fire on to them below and look at
6935s they've got three cannons a blue a
6937s purple and a gray one up at the top just
6940s raining fire onto these other teams is
6942s wbg also in a pretty decent area as well
6944s as OC Civic is gonna go down to tstxj
6947s here we're gonna see him forced to alt
6949s early into this end Circle and this
6953s could be a wrinkle in the plans for Oco
6956s so trying to get some crabs off it looks
6958s like he's not gonna be able to come away
6959s and submang able to get that heal off
6963s and the resurrection Slayer able to
6964s revive something Kobe is gonna get
6966s grabbed here they're trying to go for
6968s the re-grab onto these jdg players but
6970s they're unable to and annually taking so
6972s much damage forced to D alt here tries
6974s to go for the heel it was gonna be
6975s unable to try slip off the Bell to get
6977s out of it as fast as possible but it's
6978s gonna go down to Xiao where shall we
6981s here with the Takeda ultimate able to
6983s come through and everybody's just
6985s converging it is now absolute chaos
6986s jdg's LSR trying to make something
6988s happen with the dagger here's txj hey
6991s trying to get a grab is unable to come
6993s away with anything as he gets LSR they
6996s are going to try and go through with the
6997s slashes but they're unable to do it
6998s taking a lot of damage here they're
7000s gonna be able to try and grab koopy as
7001s well be able to get away LSR is going to
7004s go down to lyd with that F ability for
7008s Robin valuation you Sean able to get
7010s that txj is gonna get out of alt here
7012s goes down he does need to build that
7014s rage back up as there is a minute and 12
7016s seconds left for this Frost Zone to
7020s disappears we're gonna see lid able to
7022s get the grab onto koopy here not able to
7024s deal too much damage on while he's in
7025s the alt but they are going to shark him
7026s down trying to go for the regrab here he
7028s is almost dead unable to come away with
7031s the kill yet it looks like he was able
7032s to get away they aren't they are going
7033s to try and play it as safe as possible
7035s Lynn about to de-alter as well on the
7037s able to come away with the kill here
7039s wasting
7041s using their alt not able to come away
7043s with anything too productive
7045s yeah the verticality they're really
7047s putting a wrinkle in alliances playing
7049s there to follow up on that elimination
7051s uh Kayla's ykc though uh no such
7054s problems they're going to catch the
7055s re-grab onto alliances on and now Zahn
7058s really finds themselves in a terrible
7059s position KOA moving in at 215
7062s eliminations ykc though starting to get
7064s pummeled by OC's Annalee and that's
7066s going to be it there unfortunately for
7068s ykc no healing available for the members
7072s of KLA and this is what we typically see
7075s happen on these teams that don't bring
7077s in some sort of healing for the monk
7079s comp here we didn't see the Tamil come
7081s through to be able to buy some
7082s protection for the monk there Annalee
7086s just able to focus them out nobody in
7089s range from KLA to be able to slide in
7091s and find that Resurrection as all three
7094s members of Team OC slide into the body
7096s looking to pick up straps here and
7098s unfortunately KLA will lose cxz as well
7101s to team tees of dvv KLA now down to a
7104s single member left remaining alive GGG
7108s in the corner there jdg seems to have
7110s found them out as well team he's gonna
7111s find OC Slayer and pick up an
7113s elimination and we are seeing KLA just
7116s fight to stay alive here they want to
7118s make the most of those 15 eliminations
7120s as humanly possible te looking to have a
7123s repeat of last game where they start to
7125s take control of this final Circle and
7126s unfortunately it will be them who are no
7129s sorry wbg actually picks up the
7131s elimination on the klas uh qgg out of
7134s the hand of test XJ txj finds uh ougs is
7138s in you and we'll pick up the elimination
7140s off of a slam going through actually no
7143s alliance's lucky finds it oh my goodness
7145s te here setting up so many eliminations
7147s just not able to find them as multiple
7149s teams are able to pick up those kills
7151s out of txj's hands txj not able to uh
7155s get those slams to come through as
7156s quickly as they would like here but te
7159s still holding on with control here jdg's
7161s copy going to go down to lyd lydv be
7165s gonna find alliances lucky as well we're
7168s going to see lyd just continue to set up
7171s eliminations time and time again for the
7173s other members of Team te really putting
7177s in work here on the situation utilizing
7179s this old to just lock down multiple
7182s people in the final Zone here we see txj
7184s find that monk oldie yet again looking
7187s to start finding some of these grabs
7190s maumon just above trying it to stay
7192s alive here wvg's PP actually gonna slip
7195s into the zone and take quite a bit of
7197s damage there and uh unfortunately that
7199s could have spelled disaster than PP
7201s gonna come in with the old but
7203s unfortunately he's going to get grabbed
7205s out here txj looking uh for the
7207s opportunity to find a double grab here
7209s but the members of te just quickly Blitz
7212s PB out of existence in txj's hand gxj
7214s does find another grab but does not have
7217s the time to follow through with the slam
7219s but it doesn't matter oug's SS going to
7221s be completely caught out by the members
7223s of Team te and te finding that success
7226s that they were looking for in the
7227s previous game here will pick up all of
7229s the eliminations of the first place
7230s finish te it'll be very happy about this
7232s as they walk away the MVP for game
7234s number two
7236s and yet te is a team that I've been
7238s seeing they are so consistent they were
7240s the ones who were doing very well in
7241s that End Circle and their endless Circle
7243s Game is just so phenomenal
7246s like last game as well they were able to
7248s come away with they didn't have the most
7251s kills obviously because team GGG was
7253s dominating the early game but when it
7256s came to that late game they dominated in
7258s that sector we're able to pick up a lot
7259s of kills and still Finish First in the
7263s standings whereas
7265s after the points got tallied of course
7267s they did not get first place but they
7270s were still able to play a hot Place High
7272s and now they've got the MVP for that
7274s second game which is going to place them
7275s even higher KLA right now as well they
7278s must be a little bit upset they had a
7280s very amazing early game performance but
7282s were not able to hold up until that end
7285s game area where they just ended fell
7288s apart so quickly coming into that late
7290s game did not rack up enough place for
7292s points to get a meaningful enough
7294s multiplier
7295s yeah and you know it just unfortunately
7298s happens right you know sometimes you get
7300s to those final circles and you've got a
7302s ton of eliminations you're so focused on
7304s getting to that multiplier you don't
7306s realize your positioning and where you
7309s end up on the map and that's what
7310s happens to KLA one of them gets picked
7312s up it grabbed they go down the other two
7315s members are forced to split away and as
7317s soon as you split away from your team in
7319s a final circle like that you're just
7321s gonna start getting picked off and
7322s that's what we see happen one after the
7324s other the members of KLA start to fall
7326s like Domino's qgg even finds a nice
7329s little spot to hide in it down below in
7331s that little Cove but jdg is not going to
7333s let them stay there for very long te
7335s able to come over and capitalize on jdg
7337s kind of a poke in the bear if you will
7339s and uh forcing uh the final member of
7342s KLA qgg I do believe it was to come out
7345s and uh multiple people uh just picking
7348s up those eliminations it's very funny as
7350s many eliminations as te picks up we do
7352s see them when they Munk Up txj Missing
7355s opportunities to pick up illuminations
7356s as other teams just snipe kills out of
7359s his hand he actually picks up somebody
7361s and they're literally within like one
7363s tick of HP and he holds on to them
7365s forever looking for the double grab even
7368s though he's got the guaranteed kill in
7369s his hand instead of taking the slam and
7371s by the time he goes for the slam a temmy
7374s wisp uh comes out of nowhere and picks
7376s up the kill out of his hand so txj kind
7379s of you know te doing a very good job but
7382s txj hinting on himself a little bit he
7384s had the opportunity to pick up more of
7386s those eliminations if he had just kind
7389s of uh instead of patiently waiting for
7391s the double grabs just went ahead and go
7393s okay I've got the kill in hand let me go
7395s ahead and secure that and then go back
7397s to looking for some of those grabs
7399s coming through but te still does come
7400s out on top and like you said te this is
7403s a team that's very very good at securing
7405s final Circle taking control of final
7406s Circle and keeping other teams from
7408s being able to do the exact same thing
7410s and that's what we see them do txj monks
7413s up takes control of the Zone they wait
7415s until thj's just about to go down to pop
7418s the UA Channel and then use the UA
7420s shuttle to continue to keep pressure on
7422s everybody else in that final Circle and
7424s just force players into the rest of Team
7427s te and te able to capitalize on all of
7430s the damage and CC uh that their UAE Sean
7434s is putting out and just keeps everybody
7437s from being able to do anything in the
7438s final Circle te doing a very very good
7441s job and showing that level of
7443s consistency you were talking about by
7445s making a repeat of the final Circle that
7447s they had in the previous game but this
7448s time able to pick up 16 eliminations and
7451s a first place finish which is going to
7453s give them a 30.6 game score can't play
7456s with 15 eliminations uh still going to
7459s pick up a mighty 20 for their game score
7462s jdg going to be rounding out third place
7464s with a 12.7
7469s that what I said exactly the same thing
7472s that I said at that last game I said if
7473s they play consistent they're going to be
7475s able to come out very higher up GG four
7478s points on the board 5.3 total game score
7481s absolutely different side that we saw
7483s come out from them this game rather than
7485s their last game they didn't get that
7486s early game play they didn't get that
7488s momentum going and they were never they
7490s weren't able to keep it in KLA still
7493s able to come up with 15 kills on the
7494s board so they are still second place
7497s but they weren't able to get a huge
7501s point gap between all of them as this is
7504s our winning team lyd the DVD and txj
7508s riding that F2 Perry belt I still think
7511s that is the funniest thing
7513s that I've seen in the pro league
7515s in a hot minute you know the big thing
7518s with the the perrybale right is that uh
7520s you're coming into trios it's much
7522s easier to uh get that Parry off and
7526s typically as a monk player in trios here
7529s in the pro league you're not looking to
7531s use that Perry belt to save yourself
7532s you're actually looking to use the Bell
7535s to cover for your teammates right
7538s typically like if you're you as Sean
7540s doesn't have his affability available or
7542s you know if you're vvv and you don't
7544s have the F available those golden
7545s focuses to be able to break away from
7548s something like anesh's might or you know
7550s a gold nunchuck as the monk you can use
7554s that Bell to cover and likewise if
7556s you're gonna use that Bell to cover for
7558s somebody else you're not going to be
7560s under attack while you're utilizing it
7562s you might as well bring the Perry Bell
7564s in and have that percent chance to just
7566s be able to to Parry someone's weapon out
7568s of their hand and kind of flip that
7570s entire fight on its head and that's why
7572s we see some of these monks starting to
7574s run it because it's less about out using
7576s that belt cover for yourself and more
7578s about using it to cover for your teeth
7580s okay yeah that makes a lot more sense
7583s you see this is where Alliance Lockheed
7585s was able to come away with that kill
7587s there oh stealing that from the monk
7590s there and te for the first time he
7592s bumped up there it was so close and we
7597s had two or three kills that are sharked
7598s away from him and I thought it was just
7600s the most hilarious thing is
7601s ougie's SS it's gonna end it did go down
7604s very quickly he tried to alt away from
7607s it was almost able to come out but he
7609s wasn't able to finally come over the
7612s victory there but it's all good yeah
7614s yeah te just I mean again if they're
7618s able to take control of a final Zone
7620s they do such a good job at just holding
7623s on to it no surprises vvv or uh temi
7626s player here are gonna come out uh the
7628s MVP here five kills 10 assists 21 000
7631s damage look at the 16k damage coming
7633s from uh with the full sword and we
7636s talked about this so this is our second
7637s temi in a row to walk away with uh MVP
7640s and we talked about how important of a
7642s weapon it is for a player like a tumult
7645s who has so much cc to be able to use
7647s because the second you catch somebody
7649s out in a wisp where you catch them on
7651s the edge of your old they're vulnerable
7653s for just a short second but that short
7656s second is enough to come in with the
7657s pull sword that 1.0 charge and catch
7660s somebody with it and the pole sword just
7662s does so much damage off of that solo
7666s charge it's kind of insane how much
7668s damage it really does so even being able
7671s to lock somebody down
7672s for one second to half a second is a
7675s massive advantage
7677s for somebody and able to be able to
7679s follow up with the pull sword
7681s no question why BVB comes out the MVP
7685s and congratulations again to team te and
7690s vvv their MVP just saying a whole bunch
7693s of acronyms and vvv Team MVP te
7697s congratulations to them for coming away
7699s with the victory because they did play a
7701s phenomenal game in the way that they
7703s were able to come through and they've
7704s been the most consistent so far they
7706s play second or third the first game now
7707s they're placing first let's see if
7709s they're gonna be able to do anything
7711s else and you know I need JL I need jail
7713s to come through my boys over in Jr
7716s they're lacking a little bit right now
7718s unfortunately but let's hope we'll
7720s hopefully we'll be able to see them come
7721s through and make a little bit more of a
7723s difference in this next coming game look
7725s jail gets the moral victory for me okay
7727s I the the fact that they're able to
7729s catch out Alliance is lucky not once but
7731s twice with the bear drops as they're
7733s trying to chase them through the Hut
7735s there as just absolutely disrespecting
7737s him going you might get me but man are
7741s you gonna feel bad after this I like
7744s before you move players at home I don't
7746s know if you've ever been that side of
7748s the map and Fallen victim to those bear
7750s traps but it is it is a terrible
7753s terrible feeling so for Alliance is
7756s lucky to walk into one but not two
7758s literally back to back is absolutely
7761s crazy but ladies and gentlemen we're
7763s gonna take a short break before we come
7764s back and lock in for game number three
7768s foreign
7831s foreign
7839s foreign
7916s foreign
7934s [Music]
7940s [Music]
7960s thank you
7965s [Music]
7984s foreign
8006s I heard that there was some fun the
8008s rocket action I heard the te were
8010s popping up and I was like I'm not
8011s missing this in fact I'm not missing
8012s this I'm just gonna jump straight into
8014s the casting dust and we're going to be
8016s finishing off all of the rest of the
8018s games for the day yeah absolutely I mean
8021s a te popping off GE having an absolutely
8023s you know massive first game going into
8026s the final circle with 17 eliminations
8028s under the belt already and then even
8030s after that uh walking away with the
8032s third place uh placement finish uh and
8036s miskia by themselves after having two of
8039s their members get grabbed from opposite
8041s sides of the map uh and deleted able to
8043s hold it together there hits a seven man
8046s uh Takeda in the final Circle there able
8049s to pick up an 18th elimination and pick
8051s them up a ton of points unfortunately in
8053s classic GG fashion we were just talking
8056s about how they had a very good bi-weekly
8059s in this follow week and we keep this
8062s Narrative of wanting to see Gigi make a
8065s return to form uh going forward and
8068s every time we talk about this
8069s unfortunately you know they just had a
8071s huge game and it looks like okay we're
8073s gonna carry the momentum over from the
8074s bi-weekly final here today and then into
8077s an immediate disappointing game where
8079s they go out and they very middle of the
8080s game they've only picked up four
8081s eliminations and it's just classic GG
8084s all over again but uh we've got a
8086s question for you guys uh watching from
8088s home how many kills did te get in game
8090s number two is it a15 B16 c17 or d18 lock
8096s your answers in in chat and make sure
8097s you keep an eye on your Whispers here
8100s over on Twitch uh because one look
8103s person is gonna walk away with some
8105s extra extra goodies and you don't want
8107s to miss out on the Cosmetics here in
8109s naraka because our Cosmetics team do not
8111s miss Moxie they do not indeed but
8114s another team that I think we should
8115s probably talk about especially after
8116s that game number two
8118s really like it seems going into that
8120s final Zone they were coming with
8121s something like what 15 kills they were
8123s so far ahead of the pack and then they
8125s all just get absolutely torn apart
8129s the coaches hold the water for them oh
8131s my God
8136s they look to be leading super heavily
8139s and it was very similar to when we see
8141s that sort of structure of J team versus
8143s te in the final Zone like te always
8146s seemed to have this game plan of how
8147s they're going to play the final zone so
8149s even though they're coming in without as
8151s many kills as some of the other teams
8152s they're still able to stagger their
8155s ultimate extraordinarily well so that
8158s even when things like the monk alt drops
8160s aren't they have that UE ultimate to be
8162s able to fall in on and then they're able
8164s to find those players who are hugging
8166s the sides of that zone and absolutely
8169s smash on them right with the jumps of
8171s the year we just pushing through with
8173s stagger and then even when that job site
8175s you've got enough time for txj to hit
8177s another Monk ultimate and it's just so
8179s seamless and something that I really
8181s wanted to bring up because I saw it and
8183s I really went oh he looked the minute
8185s continues repel was something that txj
8188s was having and that's why he's able to
8191s get almost back to back two Mongols off
8193s without having to feel any pressure or
8196s downtime for that repair you can see
8197s that a lot of teams I think have
8199s identified that JT made that shift of
8202s instead of going for the gate fights
8203s they were just full of Soul Jades and
8205s get repair all as quickly as possible
8206s because it allows that monk just so much
8208s more control in that finals on oh yeah
8210s absolutely I mean this is something even
8212s in game number one we saw repair roll uh
8215s coming through and playing a massive uh
8217s role in that particular game a lot of
8220s teams starting to identify that certain
8223s Soul Jades are a win condition you know
8226s in game one GG we talked about how
8229s important it was that 330 off the rip
8232s was able to get their hands on Venom
8233s tipping a repeating crossbow every
8235s single time that they engaged with the
8237s Transformer comp they were able to just
8239s absolutely shred through the health bar
8241s of the monk as soon as they transform
8243s and multiple times that repeating
8245s crossbow catching the monk player off
8247s guard the Venom tip doing so much damage
8250s that the monk doesn't even have time to
8252s de-transform and try to you know just
8254s take the fight with what armor they have
8258s together still left because that Venom
8260s tip really does shred through a monk so
8264s fast it's absolutely ridiculous how much
8267s damage you can do with a repeating
8268s crossbow into a monk with Venom tip and
8270s this is something I think a lot of these
8272s teams have recognized and we talk about
8275s it again many of these teams kind of
8277s adjusting away from taking those second
8279s Realms of Yang because of how high risk
8282s it is and instead of spending the money
8284s on those potential Revival charms
8286s because those Revival charms are
8288s disappearing quicker and quicker as the
8291s nbpl goes on many teams opting to roll
8294s for those Soul Jades looking for those
8296s missing components those win conditions
8298s that they know they need
8301s I think definitely definitely we're
8302s seeing the repair Barrel immediately
8304s just hiked the top of Taylor also things
8306s pull them creeped its way off into final
8308s Zone control not so much early in the
8311s game but definitely towards that final
8312s Zone it feels like everyone is pocketing
8314s a secondary Pawn so they can control how
8317s those engagements go and just to throw
8319s in a lot of players out of the space
8320s very similar to deal blades but it
8322s doesn't uh force you to roll until you
8324s get something like Cavalry blind as
8326s heading into game number three we can
8328s have a look at what compositions are
8330s going to be coming through from some of
8332s these teams we're likely going to be
8334s seeing the monk still stay probably a
8336s lot of farrier as well still coming
8338s through maybe we see that zip Decay to
8342s try to take it on and this is really
8344s interesting JL are going to be Fielding
8348s alongside
8349s oug and OC one of the slightly newer
8352s combinations so that you can keep them
8354s on still have that massive anchor of
8357s your player but you can use the Decatur
8358s very similar to a UE and then the zip
8360s obviously fulfills the same roles that
8362s kurumi 20 keep everyone topped up the
8365s caveat being you don't have to stay
8366s stationary in that coronary ultimate to
8369s make sure that your monk is healed
8370s through ewg though are going to be
8373s Fielding that Justina and we've seen it
8375s work we haven't seen it work like this
8379s they're going to be Fielding the Justina
8381s to try and get a little bit more
8383s lockdown on some of these players if you
8385s get pressured yourself when the monk is
8386s in that ultimate form you can go for
8388s that eye shell form so that you deny the
8390s secondary grab to come from the get up
8392s Yang fight and then obviously your
8394s ultimate can lock a lot of players down
8395s so the monk can actually try and grab
8397s them out when they're stationary and
8398s prone yeah it's going to be very
8400s interesting unfortunately we keep
8402s singing this time and time again if
8404s you're going to run something different
8406s in that Transformer slot if you're not
8408s running Feria or Eurasia you typically
8410s need to run a healing support with it as
8414s well these teams that try to run
8418s um something uh in that secondary slot
8421s and then bring the temi in don't do very
8423s well we saw KZ run Viper temi with monk
8427s for both of their first games and they
8429s walked away with big fat zeros for both
8430s of those games and it's kind of you know
8433s this thing we talk about all the time
8435s how important the healer is for that
8438s particular comp if you don't have a
8441s secondary hero who can buy any amount of
8443s safety for your monk
8445s um you really need to have that healer
8447s so you can just keep the monk up in that
8450s transformation for as long as humanly
8452s possible threatening that space because
8454s you don't have a big followable te here
8457s uh coming into trying to turn this fight
8460s on to Alliance they do lose uh one of
8463s their members here Leo goes down but
8465s te's vvv will find the ultimate on to uh
8469s one of the members here from Alliance
8471s and they're going to be able to pick up
8472s that elimination Unfortunately they
8475s weren't able to get the kurumi lucky
8476s goes extremely low here and te not able
8479s to find the follow-up but lucky not
8481s really able to come back in to help Lynn
8483s as vvv continues to threaten the space
8486s here Leo will uh go down here uh for Te
8490s though so vvv gonna find themselves
8492s completely alone here and kurumi able to
8494s find an armor swap comes back in
8497s Alliance will be coming out on top of
8499s this fight
8500s because they're able to come out on top
8502s they can get the resurrection answers
8503s when without having to use those rebirth
8505s charms the same unfortunately cannot be
8508s said for their opponents those are going
8510s to be burned out very very early on as
8512s now Alliance get that down time as well
8514s to be able to try and find themselves to
8516s the loot they've already been able to
8517s pick themselves up purple dual blades
8519s for lin which is going to be so clutch
8522s for your monk especially given the fact
8524s that they have that Ultimate Gold top us
8526s we can have a look at the scrap over
8527s secret tunnel geez he's missed here
8530s absolutely blitzing through the members
8533s of OC no ultimate necessary just a blue
8537s fashioned staff making sure that with
8540s that just so much space control the fact
8541s that you can Dash between some of those
8543s opponents really quickly and fluidly
8544s allows you to be a lot of spacers in the
8547s battlefield all at once we head over and
8548s have a look at the fight going down
8549s between KZ and ewg bainsworth now going
8554s to be dropped by the members of ewg to
8556s try and push back onto the members of
8559s oug could come in for a potential third
8561s party the beans are going to make it a
8562s lot harder for the king to hold this
8564s position very luckily he hasn't had to
8566s dodge out of any of the bean sprouts
8567s just yet now however he does take one
8570s stack of it and as a result ewg just
8573s playing around his feet not really
8574s letting themselves pull into the Rhythm
8576s where they can potentially be grabbed
8578s out are going to be able to deal with
8580s the Monk and get ye run rised up as in
8582s the distance we can see Ouija new hiding
8585s just trying to play a little bit of
8587s downtime oh my goodness they just run
8588s right past him there we go spotted out
8591s the grapple gonna be locking them down
8594s the zippers but not quite available so
8596s beans rough is still pushing them
8598s further away from their teammates to
8600s potentially be able to revive there's
8601s the ultimate coming through as we can
8603s see each WG just making sure that three
8606s versus one ZIP sustainability goes
8608s pretty far but it's not going to be able
8609s to sustain you through that you WG doing
8611s a very good early beans breath to be
8614s able to fully control that fight and as
8616s a result this is so key not having to
8619s invest ultimates they didn't have to go
8620s month to month they didn't have to use
8622s that Justina full Breeze now if they
8624s potentially get third partied and we
8625s know there was a potential for the third
8627s party given that they want currently
8629s engaged with oud when that fight began
8631s they're going to be able to have
8633s reserves to fall back onto
8635s yeah we're gonna take a look here at
8636s Cala uh our team from last game and you
8639s know we we talked about this a little
8640s bit and
8642s a slightly disappointing performance
8644s from Cala because they had so many kills
8646s and looked to really be taking control
8648s of that game going in to the late game
8651s but that's the thing Cala is a team that
8653s typically excels on these early to mid
8656s game uh compositions right something
8659s like uh the Takeda Z ping or uh your
8663s viper yodohime comps strictly because
8666s they don't really know how to take Zone
8669s control every single time we see kele to
8672s late game they've never really been able
8675s to take Zone control or hold on to it
8678s they might ult up at some particular
8681s point and control it for a minuscule
8683s amount of time but they're just not a
8685s team that has that Rhythm and that
8687s pacing down to take control of the final
8690s Circle and just pop off like some of
8692s these other teams so it's very
8694s unfortunate for the members of KLA
8696s because if they don't have a good early
8698s to mid game they're just simply not
8700s going to have a good game ewg here
8703s trying to put this Justina to work
8704s unfortunately the old gonna be cut off
8706s by the temi old coming out from the
8709s members of OC OC and ewg both gonna be
8712s down a player anally actually going to
8714s be able to pick up two tick here get the
8717s slam to go through two tick gonna take
8718s quite a bit of damage we're gonna be
8719s able to use that off uh to buy
8722s themselves some spacing here for ewg
8724s able to get some of those heels back up
8726s anally going quite low as well as year
8729s on Annalee going to go ahead and
8730s demonkey or use the Bell to buy
8732s themselves some safety the same for
8734s ewg's year on and oh my goodness the
8737s pole sword coming through that
8739s blistering Edge from two tick catching
8741s on to both members of OC ewg able to
8745s flip that fight on its head off the back
8748s of that blistering Edge to tick buys ewg
8752s back into this game oh and that works
8754s picks himself up a purple pole sold as
8756s well to make that blistering Edge burn
8757s so a little bit harder as it is going to
8760s be wbg potentially going Toto with a
8763s Gigi as we can see both of these teams
8766s running that anti-monk composition so it
8769s is going to be first Viper ultimate
8770s coming out from GG just making sure to
8772s keep wbg on the rugs they're able to
8775s connect it on to Jing who's isolated
8776s Away by miscuit but the second Viper
8779s ultimate comes through and we're going
8781s to see now the exchange wbg dropping a
8784s Viper ultimate of their own miskier
8785s knowing that they're not going to be
8787s stun canceled out of the ultimate throws
8789s in there Yoda all now to try and cover
8792s and push away the members of wbg as
8795s Sleepwalker is downed and we are going
8798s to see once again GG returning to form
8801s now we just have to see that carry
8804s through they're gonna have to be a
8805s little bit quieter in terms of fights
8807s that they take in the next couple of
8809s moments given the fact that to come out
8811s on top of that they had to throw in both
8813s the Yodo ultimate and the Viper ultimate
8816s two of your main counters to the monk
8817s composition but they are not looking to
8820s slow down anytime soon they've headed
8822s over to Grove they won't control these
8823s buildings they want to be able to push
8825s themselves through all of these boxes so
8827s that you can pick up as much coins as
8828s possible and when we're talking about a
8830s matter that is now defining a round
8832s rolling for soldiers it makes sense that
8835s a lot of these teams would immediately
8836s try and head towards this area given the
8838s fact that you can make so much money not
8841s through the quest system not for
8842s bounties but just running through all of
8844s those boxes and pick up so many coins to
8847s be able to roll for the soldiers so GG
8849s coming through and denying the monk
8851s compositions the ability to do that is
8853s massive oh yeah absolutely and I mean GG
8856s again they're on this early to mid game
8858s comp they're looking to have a Repeat
8860s Performance like they did in game number
8862s one right they played this comp uh last
8864s game Unfortunately they just found
8866s themselves uh getting caught out to a
8868s very very uh bad third party which
8871s wasn't really you know their fault
8873s sometimes it's just the way the cookie
8874s crumbles uh in the Rocky you pressure
8877s into a fight you're forced to burn
8878s ultimates and then the third party comes
8880s through and there's not a whole lot you
8882s can do and it was actually their their
8884s wound Chen who gets caught out in the
8888s third party and it gets locked down into
8890s the roller and because the Wu Chen is
8893s the player that goes down they lose
8894s their safety net they lose their ability
8896s uh to escape from that third party and
8899s we see all of Gigi go down to that and
8902s again that's we've talked about uh very
8905s recently uh how important Target
8908s acquisition is for these teams how
8910s important it is to pick the right target
8912s to eliminate when you go into these
8916s fights and wuchen very much is the
8917s target you need to eliminate from that
8919s Viper comp we're going to see KLA going
8921s head-to-head here uh with ew G why K say
8926s not looking to burn that TN High
8929s ultimate off the rip here we're gonna
8931s see ye Ron from the other side
8933s immediately have all of their armor
8934s blitzed off and ykc will follow up with
8937s the monkhold and this is a really bad
8939s position to be in if you're year on and
8941s this is typically why you see these
8943s monks transform early year on has no
8946s armor to fall back on so if he goes low
8949s in this ultimate here unfortunately ye
8952s Ron when he D transforms isn't going to
8954s have any armor to protect himself ykc on
8957s the other hand is on the opposite end of
8959s the spectrum he's gonna Munk Up with
8961s that full armor so even if he goes low
8963s as soon as he D transforms he's gonna be
8965s in a good State ewg's euron extremely
8968s low here trying to find a reset here is
8970s going to be forced out of it going to be
8972s forced to use the bow ye Ron is going to
8974s get a little bit of a heal keep himself
8976s alive here but a Perry comes through
8977s from qgg the follower pass just gonna be
8980s too much damage and ewg going to go down
8983s and that's exactly how we saw ewg go
8986s down to during their first realm of Yang
8988s in game one turning now our attention to
8990s team wolves uh versus the members of AOW
8994s and wolves in uh unfortunately classical
8997s fashion this season is going to find
9000s themselves losing out uh in this realm
9003s of Yang Saro trying to turn things back
9005s around on Shu Tong but not able to
9007s follow up uh with enough damage to pick
9010s up that elimination and AOW comes out on
9012s top of their realm of yang
9015s let's talk about it too to the Justina
9017s monk composition tried to take a
9018s fighting gate of Yang and unfortunately
9021s lots for reasons that will return to in
9022s a little bit is TE are going to be going
9024s Toe to Toe immediately though they see
9027s Leo Get Low they use that which ntp
9029s before that witch and can go down and
9031s lose the ability to be able to use it so
9034s good call coming through from te and
9036s even better Court coming from tea
9037s because it gives me the dying time to be
9039s able to discuss why exactly that Justina
9041s was unfortunately a little bit of a bad
9043s idea because tuna gets grabbed has to
9046s use the free storm incredibly early try
9048s and keep himself safe through it and as
9050s a result when he cancels it there's just
9052s a UV ultimate smacking down on him he
9054s then tries to get out of the UE ultimate
9056s and goes straight into a temi ultimate
9059s until his and just gets absolutely
9061s charred to a crisp it's it's really
9062s unfortunate this is what we talked about
9064s when you don't have that support player
9066s playing and just continuously keeping
9068s your monkeeled up as well it had a
9070s significant impact on how euran was able
9071s to play he wasn't really able to keep
9073s himself in that stationary position to
9075s look for the grabs and obvious is moving
9076s he isn't going to be able to throw those
9078s hands down and look for the players look
9080s to frighten that space all right so the
9081s composition at its heart falls apart
9083s entirely but AOW and KLA are still going
9086s Toe to Toe both of these teams have
9089s absolutely no reason to try and
9090s disengage from the spiders both of these
9092s teams have the Vermilion Birds might and
9094s so we are going to see okay like
9096s stubbornly hold themselves here even
9098s though ykc is going to go down as now
9100s the UE ultimate is just going to try to
9103s pressure out AOW to Tom's ultimate so
9106s that he's not able to go after that
9108s kurumi before potentially the kurumi
9110s control and I would attach the tether
9112s onto the monk or just use the umbrella
9114s to be able to keep themselves a little
9115s bit more mobile and stagger out the
9116s players that chase them through however
9118s KLA used their UV ultimate earlier and
9121s AOW are going to still have an ultimate
9123s to be able to play with once oqgs and
9126s drops eyes as we can see he's taking a
9128s lot of pressure now coming through from
9129s the members of auw they were able to
9131s pick up that kurumi unfortunately
9133s despite his best efforts and it just
9135s becomes a Tiger game as AOW are going to
9138s be able to retain to the million Birds
9140s might they do lose their monks however
9142s so they are going to have to find
9143s themselves a soul alter but that could
9145s potentially actually pan out better for
9147s them in the long run because if they go
9148s towards assault and now they're going to
9150s run into a lot of players who lost that
9153s fight in the gate of Yang and have only
9155s just rags
9156s yeah you know I want to go back and talk
9159s about the Justina pick as well I don't
9161s think it's an absolutely terrible pick
9163s onto the Transformer comp the problem
9164s being is is again when you take that
9167s competit score and you remove that
9169s protection piece you remove the uh Sean
9171s you remove uh the Faria to be able to
9175s cover for the monk when it comes out of
9177s transformation uh you have to have to
9182s have a Healer coming through in that
9184s comp to buy any sort of protection for
9186s your Transformer like you said if the
9188s monk had been able to stay stationary
9190s and threaten that space it would have
9192s been a much different fight for the
9194s members of ewg speaking of much
9196s different fight we're turning now to
9197s team wolves going head-to-head here with
9200s oug that Tammy old coming through gonna
9202s buy wolves a little bit of space here
9204s immediately we're gonna see the
9206s repeating crossbow come through but
9208s unfortunately zeping just able to keep
9211s that massive amount of feeling coming
9212s through the slam from Rules 14 not able
9215s to buy the elimination on continue 14
9218s going to go extremely low and here we go
9220s we're going to see the repeating
9221s crossbow with the Venom tip coming
9223s through here I do believe that was team
9226s alliance with that repeating crossbow
9227s Eugene's the king will pick up
9229s elimination onto wolves but now it's oug
9232s who's gonna find themselves on the
9233s receiving end of some pain here from
9235s Alliance team wolves and oug forced out
9237s into the zone and the literal you know I
9241s hate to say it the Wolves of Team
9243s Alliance just going to be able to keep
9245s hounding them down Ouija is in you
9247s getting hounded down here by the member
9249s of Team wolves and this is very
9250s unfortunate sorrow goes down to the Yang
9252s depletion so even if lxx is able to pick
9254s up an elimination here it's not really
9257s going to matter and there it is lxx is
9259s going to go down oug is uh going to pick
9262s up two eliminations here but they have
9264s no recourse uh towards going back to
9267s pick up the king because the members of
9269s Alliance just waiting in the wings for
9272s them so oug going to be forced to take
9273s the scraps that they can get here from
9275s the two members of team goals and find a
9278s way back into the zone that doesn't have
9280s them running through all of the members
9283s of Team Alliance and it looks like an
9284s alliance is actually going to back away
9286s from that looking to go pressure onto
9288s the Gate of yank and it might be KZ and
9290s Alliance going ahead to head no it's
9291s going to be the members of KLA
9294s no wait hold on
9296s yeah KLA going head to head with
9299s somebody else Alliance going
9300s head-to-head with AOW as well
9303s um AOW going a to monk up immediately
9307s alliances Lynn going to do the same and
9309s we've got that more traditional gurmy
9311s cop versus a more traditional kermi Gump
9313s it's going to be very interesting to see
9315s who's able to come out on top here Shu
9317s Tong with that legendary long sword uh
9320s and look at this you see the repeating
9321s crossbows coming through this is exactly
9323s where we talked about how important
9325s those Soul Jades really are uh for these
9329s teams those repeating crossbows just
9330s putting in absolute work on to both of
9333s these Transformers we're gonna see Lynn
9335s looking it to try and find another
9337s regrab here unfortunately Sean Wukong
9340s not able to get back into their kurumi
9343s ultimate both of these for me ultimates
9344s on top of each other but Kung Wukong
9346s going to go down before he's able to
9348s take that step forward here as Alliance
9351s comes out on top in her first realm of
9354s Yang now turning to jail going ahead KLA
9357s yeah Jay Al unfortunately taking a lot
9359s of fire from KLA given the fact that as
9362s has already gone down they've still got
9364s one thing at least so there's still
9366s going to be a little bit of
9367s sustainability but Zu has been zoned out
9369s of this fight entirely as he now comes
9370s on through has to worry about that yui
9373s doesn't actually get hit by the UE users
9375s that assassins learned from the dagger
9376s to be able to dodge it but now that he's
9378s the only one left that is very quickly
9380s going to be a gay young Fight Win For
9383s KLA and sort of circling back to your
9385s lines as well Lynn has honestly really
9389s impressed me over the last couple of
9391s days because he plays that perfectly
9394s both monks go for the Altar and both of
9397s them just shove each other around to
9398s stop that monk from being able to go for
9400s the grab because obviously when as a
9402s monkey or shot backwards you don't
9404s actually get to try and find those
9405s players the second that he's able to
9407s scoop a player up immediately it changes
9410s to you have to keep shoving them to keep
9412s them staggered out so they don't find
9413s the slam and he doesn't find the Slam at
9415s first instead he finds a second player
9418s because they don't immediately go for
9420s the UE awesome
9422s anyway that is that is one of our
9424s biggest crates right if you don't use
9426s that secondary UE ultimate and deny the
9428s double grab it just becomes so much more
9430s dangerous when as a monk player you're
9432s not looking for grams from the other
9434s team you're using your ultimate to deny
9437s the damage from the Monk on the other
9439s side and it just becomes a game of time
9442s are you going to be able to keep them
9443s staggered out 24 7 until the ultimate
9445s drops if so maybe you're gonna be able
9447s to turn this around if not you're
9450s essentially screwed because you're not
9452s going to lose just one person you're
9453s gonna lose two as we can have a look at
9456s KOA now having that win over the Gate of
9459s Yang surprisingly a lot more teams
9462s actually went for that secondary gate
9463s fight a lot of the time we see teams
9465s like you said just give it up entirely
9468s and we're about to see the specific
9469s reason why these teams who lost those
9471s gate fights they're not going to be able
9474s to get their teammates back as easily
9477s they can't really do the trade that we
9478s see of sacrificing one player and then
9480s picking up one of those Reverb charms to
9482s make sure that you can keep your team
9483s and hopes alive in the lobby because of
9486s all of them already being used as wbg
9488s now trying to lock onto the members of
9490s aowpp coming in for gorgeous Viper
9492s ultimate to try and push on through as
9495s JL coming in for the third party are
9497s gonna make the fight a little bit too
9498s hot for their blood they're immediately
9500s going to be able to TP out and this is
9502s horrible timing for JL JL came in for
9505s the third party they'd lost the Gate of
9506s Yang fight and AOW have been spooked
9509s into running the good news is AOW have
9512s to run into the back of zone so jail no
9515s at some point that they're going to come
9517s to them the worrying thing is that AOW
9520s are also in that horrible position where
9523s AOW are also one of the teams that lost
9525s the Gate of young fight and as a result
9527s they have to keep putting this fight in
9529s and JL now is just a game of cat and
9533s mice and wbg or the toy in the middle at
9536s the moment both of these teams need the
9538s solvents to cancel out their young
9540s depletion and wbg are the one ones that
9543s are punishing they've got the kind of
9544s composition to both of the teams that
9546s are currently handing them down and Jing
9548s is going to be able to use that Euro
9550s ultimate to try and keep themselves safe
9552s does get grapple canceled by JL and
9554s immediately we actually see wbg more
9557s than content to just leave that you're a
9559s behind PP goes on to ballistic control
9561s throws down a window to allow that year
9563s to a little bit more cover and with the
9565s ballista pressure back onto the members
9567s of the teams on the low ground as JL try
9570s to get these kills to come through but
9572s enough time has passed now that another
9574s Viper ultimate is going to be available
9575s for PVP and still JL and AOW haven't
9579s been able to find themselves The Kills
9581s haven't been able to find themselves the
9582s soul blooms they're about to go down to
9584s Young depletion and another teams come
9586s in for third party this is horrible for
9588s these teams yeah I know this is an
9591s absolute terrible position to be in jail
9592s CU unfortunately with that Yang
9594s depletion forced to hide with only 60
9597s seconds uh before they're gonna find
9599s themselves eliminated GG waiting in the
9602s wings EU coming top side here trying to
9604s get their hands on to Fang able to get
9607s in and this could be huge for JL because
9609s Fang can come back in he was able to get
9612s rid of the Yang depletion unfortunately
9614s once Zu goes down that is going to be it
9616s for Zuzu going to monk up here 30
9619s seconds until the end depletion is going
9621s to kill them though so z u no real way
9624s for them to come back at this stage in
9626s the game it's highly unlikely that any
9628s of those Resurrection charms are still
9630s available uh in the shops here so JL
9633s going to be down to just a single member
9635s trying uh to keep things going for their
9638s team jdg here uh on the Move no
9641s eliminations here for the members of jdg
9643s yet a much slower game than we're used
9645s to seeing from this particular team as
9647s we take a look at the leader your board
9649s here wbg with 11 eliminations under
9652s their bail and KLA off to another tear
9656s with 10 eliminations for themselves the
9658s question is is will they do what they
9660s did last game uh and get to that final
9662s Circle and then not be able to take
9665s advantage of the eliminations that
9666s they've already put together for
9668s themselves jails Fang looking to head
9670s back towards the Zone here uh as we're
9673s getting ready to see that Yang depletion
9674s wipe another member of the team off the
9676s board KLA over here trying to secure
9678s themselves the Moore's blessing using
9680s the kurumi umbrella to block much of
9683s that damage coming through ykc able to
9685s get their hands on to that legendary
9687s armor a huge upgrade for them and
9689s they're just gonna leave that blood
9690s Ripper behind because ykc already has a
9693s legendary weapon to get that damage for
9695s those monk rabs to come through for the
9698s team here no reason uh to carry the
9700s gimmick weapon there and eat off another
9702s backpack space for the members of KLA
9705s yeah te gonna be pretty happy with
9708s themselves granted they're not coming
9710s with a lot of kills into this final Zone
9712s but they have the composition right A
9713s lot of the time when we talk about oh
9715s this is a compass and I turned into a
9717s mid to an early to mid composition tea
9720s hasn't quite got the memo they always
9722s pop off with this composition in not the
9725s final Zone but collapsing zone right
9727s they always pop off on Seventh Zone
9729s never sixth the thing for them however
9732s is that they just cannot make noise they
9735s can't paint a Target on their back they
9737s can't really open up a fight with
9740s ultimates instead they have to play
9741s smart they have to wait for
9742s opportunities to be handed to them quite
9745s literally by these other mon
9746s compositions right one a month goes for
9748s a grab te From The Far Side Of The Zone
9751s can swap two things like the cannon the
9753s repeating crossbow the musket and just
9756s make sure to try and put a little bit
9757s more damage onto that player to maybe
9759s poach away the kill to come through
9761s that's exactly what we're seeing te they
9764s don't like to play out in the open they
9766s don't like to play in the middle they
9768s like to find just an edge of the zone
9770s and hug it so they're a little bit
9771s further out of the way a little bit
9773s harder for those teams to be able to
9775s actively walk onto and pressure on
9776s because if you want to get to them a lot
9778s of the time you have to cross towards
9780s the middle and that's why at the moment
9781s as we can see a Morris blessing at
9782s spawning out they are absolutely nowhere
9785s near it they're not sitting on top of it
9787s they're not going to challenge it and so
9788s they're just going to challenge any team
9789s that dares to go after in the Hoops that
9791s it's going to pressure them into
9792s throwing ultimate odors we do still have
9795s 30 players left alive in this Lobby Rune
9798s so these final zones are about to get
9800s incredibly hectic because there's not a
9801s lot of space and there is a whole amount
9804s of teams who are looking to secure
9805s themselves a spot to be able to hide
9807s from all of the cannon damage that is
9809s about to rain down and now there is
9811s going to be that consistent Battle of
9813s comms of whether or not you want to try
9815s and find a high ground or whether or not
9817s you want to find a low ground and
9819s obviously it's a huge gamble because you
9821s don't quite know how the last zone is
9823s going to play out in these monk
9824s compositions they don't want to chance
9826s going onto the low ground and then it's
9829s actually a high Glen collapse because if
9832s the monk has to use the ultimate and the
9834s Zone forces them upwards they're going
9835s to have to drop the ultimate early and
9837s there goes your pressuring tool to be
9838s able to secure yourself the spaces jdg
9840s don't have a safe space to call their
9842s own jail he were taking so much damage
9845s coming through as we actually see the
9846s merciles Havoc just trying to cover him
9848s so that he's not going to be pressed
9849s upon by these other teams
9851s yeah jdg almost losing job will be there
9854s absolutely uh found themselves in a
9856s terrible position you know this
9858s particular final Zone always very very
9860s interesting for this team there's so
9862s much verticality you've got a a secret
9864s tunnel over here as well for some of
9866s these teams to collapse into to look for
9868s some of that safety but you have to be
9870s careful about uh heading down into
9872s secret tunnel uh not only because the
9874s Zone can cut you off in weird ways but
9876s you are completely cut off from the
9880s surface and if you're forced to try to
9882s go through one of those exits you're
9884s just forced to play into the other teams
9887s and it's not a position you want to find
9888s yourself in um and many of these teams
9891s like you said going to be struggling to
9893s find that sort of space to be able to uh
9896s find some safety from these ranged
9898s weapons and we saw jdg xiaohui suffering
9900s from that as he was able to take bow
9902s shots from both sides there GG in a
9905s really good position is they've got top
9907s side uh of the map here they've got that
9910s verticality they're looking for they
9911s just need to be careful about how these
9913s zones are going to collapse onto them we
9915s are zone five collapsing on to zone six
9920s with 30 players left remaining alive
9922s here in the lobby and so quite the
9926s slower game comparative to the first two
9928s games as uh coming into zone four into
9931s our other games we were down to about 22
9933s to 24 players so 30 players still quite
9936s the number of players left alive here
9937s for zone five and zone six JL here uh
9941s just trying to create a little bit of
9942s space but needs to be careful as they
9944s start to walk into the members of oug
9946s and the members of KLA coming in as well
9948s ykc feeling forced to pop the monkult
9951s here and this is exactly where you don't
9953s want to be uh if you're this Transformer
9955s comp we're gonna see lxm getting grabbed
9957s up here the slam going to come through
9959s but ykc really not in the greatest of
9962s places uh as he doesn't have cover from
9965s any side whatsoever yes he's got the
9967s rock here he's got that extra
9968s verticality to look for the grabs the
9971s problem being is so many teams able to
9973s avoid those grabs coming through oug
9975s going to find an elimination on the GG's
9977s 330 SS with the dagger KLA we're going
9980s to find one on to as miskia also going
9983s to go down to the members of jdg and all
9986s of a sudden GG who uh looked to be
9989s having another good game for themselves
9991s so if you get to final Circle find
9993s themselves being just grabbed out from
9995s multiple sides and getting eliminated
9998s here in the chaos of uh zone six as we
10002s see Cala trying to lock it together lxm
10005s just trying to hold on for his team no
10008s ultimate available yet for Alex and
10010s either only the 25 Old charge actually
10013s going to be caught out by Alliance is
10014s lucky that Phoenix Blast coming through
10016s and catching Alex M uh as they grapple
10019s down KLA going to capitalize on that as
10022s well as ykc is able to use those dual
10026s blades and that Soldier to catch on to
10029s the final member of Team gg gg gonna be
10031s sent back to the lobby here at the very
10034s end of game number three
10036s unfortunately going to lose qg as
10039s alliances Lin is able to grab him out of
10042s the pack and slam him down Swan is lost
10045s in the process but Kayla is losing that
10047s yui is going to be so detrimental for
10049s this one composition as you can see ykc
10051s now before he was confident to stand
10053s center now he's hugging the edges of the
10055s Zone he wants to make sure that he's not
10056s as much of a Target when the ultimate
10058s drops in the ultimate does drop now he
10060s isn't immediately going to be grabbed up
10061s and he's also not immediately coming
10062s through into the kill feed so using the
10064s Cavalry Bloom on the Dual Blade putting
10066s them to good use to make sure he secured
10067s himself a little bit of a safe corner
10068s but killer oh no he's grabbed out of the
10071s kurumi ultimate my man from bayona is
10074s able to grab two players one of which is
10077s ykc and he goes down in seconds and we
10081s can see immediately the kurumi tethering
10083s onto that can trying to get the
10084s resurrection there's a CXC Just Dances
10088s around these players on 40 won't be able
10090s to dance away out of another double grab
10092s to come through alliances Lynn back up
10094s in that monk form is really putting so
10097s much Havoc into these players using that
10099s final Zone as there is no natural cover
10101s to really be able to hide from the monk
10103s from Ultimate drops out now so he has to
10105s be careful uses the Bell gets the Parry
10108s to connect onto outh but oud's SS is on
10110s the Decatur uses the ultimate to keep
10112s the pressure on to learn as he tap
10114s Dodges his way out of that zone tick as
10116s ouija's the king now goes for a monk
10118s form of his own we can see the zip
10120s ultimate immediately being invested just
10122s to keep him topped up as well as the
10123s anime kurumi ultimate is going to calm
10126s down to make sure all of the players if
10127s they do get caught up can keep
10129s themselves alive and look for the
10130s pressure onto the king's feet without
10131s being grabbed as he is going to
10134s potentially go down doesn't entirely
10136s those he still has that zip healing him
10138s to make sure he's able to survive the
10140s mortal blow as bowed as lion TT comes in
10143s on the UE ultimate drops it early as we
10145s see a merciless have it come through but
10147s Lynn has somehow been able to build
10149s another Monk ultimate grab spiders
10151s meitan gets the slam to connect gets the
10154s kurumi server as well to keep himself
10155s healed up all the way through as he
10157s finds another player and finds another
10159s double grab Lynn is absolutely
10162s dumpstering all of the players around
10164s and there's the kurumi ultimate surely
10167s this is alliance's last hurray in this
10169s match as we can see badass Maytown is
10172s the only player left aligns with some
10175s gorgeous Focus fire even though they're
10178s missing that yui are able to keep Lin
10181s alive keep that mug alting up I would be
10184s extremely unsurprised if we see him take
10187s MVP and he has repair roll as a soldier
10189s because he bought those ultimates up
10191s incredibly quickly he didn't have any
10193s downtime for repairs when we were
10195s looking at all of the players around him
10196s so I'm guessing that was what was
10198s allowing him to keep that rage building
10201s again and again and again so that every
10203s single time we cut away from him when he
10205s drops out of the month form the second
10206s we got back to him he's got an overall
10209s yeah it's gonna be man Alliance you're
10213s really coming through in just absolutely
10215s impressing today Maxi this is a team
10218s that from the start of the season I've
10220s been keeping my eye on you know Alliance
10222s during season one and season two of nbpl
10224s was the team I think everybody had high
10226s expectations for coming in you know this
10228s is a very big word coming through from
10231s you know the UK everybody expects
10233s Alliance to do very well they definitely
10235s struggled in season one and season two
10237s they struggled in the world championship
10240s this new roster that they've been able
10242s to put together and now that it's been
10245s tested uh you know through the seasons
10248s has started to really find its stride
10250s here during our spring season uh for
10254s nbpl here they really have been coming
10256s through and impressing the Moxie they
10259s the communication has been so much
10261s better between the members of Team
10263s Alliance than it has been any season
10265s before I'm really proud of the work that
10269s this team's put in yeah I'm as well like
10271s we have to talk about obviously the monk
10273s like he is doing so much damage he's
10275s finding all of those double grabs that
10277s final Zone played out perfectly her
10279s Alliance there was very little natural
10281s cover if you wanted to try to tap those
10283s away from the lung cancer a lot of the
10284s time you'd be tap dodging either into
10286s other players around you considering
10287s there was this massive divide between
10290s Alliance they play that final Zone
10292s positioning wise perfectly and by final
10295s sign I'm talking about six not seven
10296s because when you look at it when you cut
10298s to their POV they make sure that they
10300s are standing on one side of the zone and
10302s then there's just middle there's a lions
10306s there's middle and there's everybody
10307s else so if you're everybody else and
10310s you're trying to run away from those not
10311s grabs you're running into other players
10314s an alliance they understand that if
10315s players are running into other teams
10317s because we're in 2K done that up we're
10319s in poles or meta we're in that metal
10322s where if you get close to other players
10323s you're immediately going to be pressured
10325s backwards into that zone tick these
10328s other teams have to make a horrible
10329s choice where if they ignore the monk
10332s they're going to get grabbed out but if
10334s they don't play around that monk they're
10336s going to take so much more damage from
10338s the other teams around them and Alliance
10340s they understand this they know that when
10342s Lin goes for the Mongols but he's not
10344s going to find as much pressure so even
10346s though we see things like the kurumi
10347s Teva come through early just in case
10349s something that the repeating crossbow
10350s starts to trunkling down they hold on to
10353s the kurumi ultimate until he takes
10355s active pressure from his feet as opposed
10358s to immediately dropping it in when he's
10360s about to hit 50 from rain shots coming
10363s through from other players and more and
10365s more and more now we're seeing that
10366s these teams when they're able to keep
10368s that monk sustained all the way through
10369s that sixth Zone A lot of it comes down
10372s to having the understanding of how to
10374s position when you're actually looking
10376s for that monk ultimate as opposed to in
10379s the past where it was you want to
10381s immediately go for that monk ultimate
10383s and look to grab as many players as
10384s possible potentially opening yourself up
10386s to be a Target but guaranteeing that as
10389s that monk player being in the ultimate
10391s form if you go into the center of the
10393s zone you have all of the control of all
10395s of the teams around you now that we've
10397s shifted towards zones being played
10399s around the edges as opposed to
10401s controlling that final Center a lot of
10403s these teams who are able to succeed
10404s teams like te seems like Alliance in
10407s that fight there find that it's a lot
10409s more value to control the edges rather
10412s than the middle like it was in the past
10413s and as a result they come in and drop a
10416s very clean 20 bomb
10419s yeah absolutely huge for lines a 20 bomb
10422s with first place finish that 37 points
10425s is just huge and I think we're only
10427s going to see the game scores continue to
10429s go up today you know is it game one we
10432s see a clean 30 coming through in our
10435s last game we see a 34 point this game
10437s we're gonna see a 37 point uh coming
10440s through consistency is going to be even
10443s more important for these teams going
10445s through the day here
10446s because teams like KLA who are
10449s consistently towards the top three side
10451s here are going to find it much much
10454s easier to overcome these huge pop-off
10457s games uh where there are these 30 you
10460s know 30 plus point games because that
10463s consistency is going to allow you to
10465s have one good game and find yourself at
10467s the top of the pack but Alliance here
10469s has also been one of those teams that's
10471s been doing consistently well today and
10474s again I really have to talk about how
10477s proud I am of this team because it's
10479s been a team that's struggled and has
10482s been able to find their footing this
10484s season and a lot of teams can't say that
10486s we see teams like Teen Wolves who have
10489s struggled in previous Seasons continuing
10491s to struggle in this season Alliance
10494s clearly has put in the work their coach
10496s has been talking to them and oh my
10498s goodness look at this Lynn 47
10503s 000 damage coming through uh from the
10506s monkey player lucky here though also
10509s doing 20 000 damage on the back of the
10512s kurumi here and quite honestly I mean
10514s lucky again really doing a massive job
10517s of keeping Lynn alive in this final
10519s Circle and like you said not just Panic
10521s popping the abilities either really
10523s looking for that position
10531s ing to be able to come through
10534s [Music]
10537s yeah Alliance I think definitely
10538s impressed like you said I'm incredibly
10540s proud of them too because I remember
10542s lastly where they were trying to like
10543s interviewers run this Matari composition
10545s and lucky as a result would be the only
10547s one left alive but we can have a look at
10549s how exactly that game panned out for
10552s these teams wbg having it seems a really
10555s clean start of the game being able to
10557s punish two teams who will own that yank
10559s depletion and as a result couldn't
10560s really run away but it was just at the
10562s end of the day alliances lend you can
10564s see him every single time we cut to his
10566s POV as well he's always full health
10568s every single time every single time he's
10570s always full help and that really does
10572s just go to the show he knows the moments
10574s to be able to pop that monk ultimate
10576s without taking too much damage there we
10578s see him fall below 50 and finally the
10580s kurumi ultimate is invested so he's able
10583s to keep himself in that monk form trust
10585s that lucky has its back keep himself in
10587s the alt keep controlling that final Zone
10589s and find the kills necessary to secure
10592s Alliance a win and no surprises it is
10595s going to be the Monk player coming
10598s through with that astonishing 47 516
10602s damage and ruin I get my smug moment I
10605s called that one of the soldiers use
10606s would be referral and absolutely no
10608s surprises that are nearly half of the
10611s damage that he puts out 17
10614s 596 of it is with the Canon and it's the
10619s pole sword that he's using as a
10621s secondary which is only
10624s 3419. the rest of that 47.5 K comes from
10630s skills and ultimate so he does 22
10634s 797 damage off grabs alone and that
10639s might be the most damage we've ever seen
10642s a monk player do in one game with
10645s ultimates alone that's that's insane
10647s look if you're able to get those grabs
10650s off you know we hearken back to season
10652s one where players like GG's 330 and uh
10655s Eagle were able to just pump out so much
10658s damage on grabs alone in these final
10661s circles and that's exactly what we see
10662s alliance's Lynn doing here and I again
10665s I'm so proud of this team for how much
10668s they've grown the spacing that they
10671s create for themselves and the decision
10673s making with the ultimates and abilities
10676s really being what buys this team so much
10680s of an advantage in this final Circle
10681s where they're not just throwing that
10683s ultimate in willy-nilly as it comes up
10685s off of cooldown they're waiting for the
10687s optimal moment spacing to pop that
10689s ultimate and then of course Lynn not
10691s just throwing the kurumi old out because
10693s they're they see the monk getting low
10695s from rain shots like you said waiting
10697s for those teams to come in and pressure
10700s that space to drop the ultimate forcing
10703s those teams to back away because it can
10705s be pretty hard for a monk once a team
10707s has able to close the gap onto you to do
10711s anything about the players at your feet
10712s yes you can grab at them but at this
10714s skill level it's very hard to catch a
10717s player out and not have them immediately
10720s use that tap Dodge and create those
10722s iframes to be able to get away from that
10724s grab but the threat of the Monk on top
10727s of the fact that they have that kurumio
10729s ultimate to buy their protection makes
10731s it very hard for teams to pressure onto
10733s you but we're gonna throw things over to
10734s Jaeger for an interview before we come
10736s back in and lock in for our fourth game
10738s of the night
10740s foreign
10801s foreign
10817s [Music]
10819s okay in my opinion I think the key point
10823s is that at the beginning of the game we
10826s killed our our player t Team te and
10830s because of them we really build
10832s confidence in the game three and because
10834s of the very excellent psychology that we
10839s have very good status in game three
10841s that's why we can won okay hi this is
10852s so let's move on to next part answer for
10855s treasure you guys can see a question on
10857s the screen and if you know the answer
10859s just type them in the chat box after our

11160s ladies and gentlemen welcome back to the
11162s Rock blade Point pro league I'm your
11164s host in your cast for this evening the
11166s Rune keeper and joining me uh is my
11169s second caster for the evening the lovely
11172s got Moxie as we bring you your Trio's
11174s action here in the fourth bi-weekly of
11177s the Season where's the season gone moxie
11180s where's the season gone time flies when
11183s you're having fun why did Gigi go oh my
11187s goodness I totally I told you doing the
11190s pre-code Circle factor and I will Circle
11192s back to it quite literally it's so
11194s unfortunate for GG that we were talking
11196s about well we didn't really know a lot
11197s of the teams like where they would want
11199s to set up because they don't know
11200s whether or not it's going to be a final
11201s thing that collapses onto the high
11202s ground or the low ground and obviously
11205s because GG are rolling that Yoto food
11207s chain and Viper composition even if they
11209s call it wrong they go for that High
11210s Ground Control they think well we've got
11212s the Witch and TP we're going to be able
11214s to escape safely and cleanly if it does
11217s to know to be somewhere else and
11220s unfortunately that doesn't quite work
11221s out for them as GG and unfortunately
11224s getting grabbed out by mug players mid
11226s ultimate name a more iconic duo in these
11229s six owners we can have a look at all of
11231s the teams currently competing and
11234s exactly where they've ended up in terms
11236s of that leaderboard wolves not having a
11239s brilliant day on fortunately it seems
11241s like they are just struggling again with
11243s that unparalleled aggression early in
11246s the game and as I was like combined off
11247s a little bit more that they can chew as
11249s we saw when they were downed in the
11252s edges of Zone tea however on top form
11255s this is a team that are going to be out
11257s for blood given the fact that they lost
11260s out on another bi-weekly finals win and
11264s we can see that whenever it's regular
11266s week they always perform at the top they
11268s always have these amazing just good
11270s inconsistent games where they come to
11271s something like 30.6 points and are able
11273s to retain a top spot off of that one
11275s amazing game but it does lead to a lot
11278s of challenging towards the other end of
11280s the leaderboard especially that second
11282s to seventh position
11283s especially if teams can put together a
11286s really strong game like lions who put
11289s together 37 points and then put together
11291s another strong or even just middling
11293s game a little bit later on in the day to
11296s challenge that inconsistency and maybe
11299s hop over the top spot the way that we
11301s saw in the bi-weekly finals last week
11304s yeah I mean that's really what it comes
11306s down to for team te right is the they
11309s have this sort of Legacy like you said
11311s where they're able to during the regular
11312s bi-weekly they absolutely dominate or
11315s pop off and they're always able to hold
11317s one of those top spots and I mean we
11319s talked about it uh in our second week
11321s because it was their sixth time going
11324s into a bi-weekly final with that first
11326s place seed and then they were finally
11329s able to take a bi-weekly final when they
11332s were a first place seed but it took them
11334s six tries to do it and they go in in a
11338s first place seed last week yet again and
11341s aren't able uh to walk away with that
11343s first place finish and you know we were
11345s talking about it meets up at the very
11346s beginning of the broadcast here that um
11349s you know they kind of choked on
11352s themselves last week with the decision
11354s making it was off the back of very poor
11357s decisions that they just give it to Jay
11359s team really and again they don't go out
11361s in a terrible position I think they went
11363s out and third place for the bi-weekly
11366s overall which is still you know eight
11368s placement points towards going to Worlds
11370s but the fact is is they had first place
11372s unlocked they just needed to not make
11375s bad decisions that I think you and me
11377s both gave te quite a bit of uh
11380s harassment over the fact that they you
11383s know had nine eliminations and chose to
11385s go into that second realm of Yang uh
11388s with a team composition that was poor
11391s for realm of Yang they risked it all on
11394s a realm of Yang they had no business
11396s going into when they could have taken
11398s those Nine Kills to the late game and
11400s gotten so much more out of them while
11402s playing a late game Heavy comp but
11405s instead they go into that second realm
11407s of Yang they cost themselves uh the back
11410s to back bi-weekly Victory and here we
11412s are with the same exact pattern forming
11416s again in the fourth bi-weekly this is
11418s something that team te needs to learn
11420s how to manage and overcome the fact that
11423s they get to the bi-weekly and end up
11425s throwing for some reason or another or
11428s you know it's just gonna come down to
11430s that everybody looks at Team te and goes
11432s yeah you won that one bi-weekly finally
11435s but really it's just a fluke you know
11437s because now you they've gone to seven in
11439s that first place seed and walked away
11441s with a single bi-weekly final
11444s championship it's just been a struggle
11446s for this team to make something happen
11448s when they get to finals whereas you look
11450s at other teams like team Alliance that
11453s we're taking a look at right now is a
11455s team that has shown a dramatic amount of
11459s growth again this was a team during
11460s season ones and season twos of nbpl last
11463s year that really struggled to find their
11466s footing and as we've seen even in Worlds
11469s they performed much better in Worlds
11470s than they did in season two obviously
11473s they didn't walk away the world
11474s champions or anything like that but
11476s during this season we've seen them
11478s continue to show a level of consistency
11481s and come out more than we've seen them
11484s any previous season right and if you're
11487s a team-like Alliance that's exactly what
11490s you want to see is that slow steady
11492s growth is how you're going to end up at
11494s the top of the pot and how you're going
11497s to end up one of those big contending
11499s teams unfortunately if you're a team
11501s like team te who continues to suffer
11504s from The Strain same problems yes you're
11506s a top tier team now but you're gonna see
11509s yourself falling slower and slower into
11512s these standings as other teams like
11514s Alliance find that level of consistency
11517s and talking as well about maybe teams
11520s that last year had a different
11522s impression to this wbg I think is one of
11525s the teams that has surprised me the most
11527s just for the fact that they haven't
11528s really been coming in in the top spots
11531s that they used to and I don't think
11532s they're playing worse I think it's just
11535s the fact that everyone's caught up to
11537s them right last year we were sort of
11538s talking about who the strongest
11540s multiplayers were and Sleepwalker was
11542s always in conversation even when we had
11544s to walked before it was proven if you
11546s could potentially be one of the Batman
11547s quotes if not the Batman player in the
11549s entire world but they haven't really had
11552s that impact which is very surprising
11554s given the fact that we are still no
11556s matter what monk is not only continue to
11559s remain one of the most picked heroes in
11561s all of the the pro league but also that
11564s were in a matter which allows him to
11566s have that safety cushion of being able
11567s to get into that barrier Max to be able
11569s to retain his health but surely there
11571s should be wbd's moment to shine but it
11574s feels like some of these monk players
11575s have just been able to catch up to worse
11577s than Walker was able to pull ahead
11579s previously like his performance in final
11580s learn was always what allowed to clutch
11582s wpg out for those wins and now it feels
11585s like a lot of these other monk players
11586s have been able to do just what
11588s Sleepwalker was able to pull off last
11590s year but wbg are going to be Fielding
11592s him on that monk position so hopefully
11595s we're going to see wbg return to form as
11598s well as they're yet to feel that farrier
11599s today I do believe they are sticking
11601s with this very traditional composition
11603s this is the composition that they went
11605s to Worlds with this is the composition
11607s between them a lot of success in a live
11609s scoopwalker the best potential to be
11611s able to exercise in his survivability
11613s into that collapsing final zone so this
11616s should set them up pretty decently JL
11618s gonna be running that zip as a support
11620s player happy to see looking across the
11623s board none of these teams I was gonna
11625s say another scenes running that just you
11627s know as a support but no kl8 are going
11630s to do just that and I just drank a
11632s little bit further down in my seat room
11634s because yeah I like usually I like the
11637s idea on paper it's just we've seen what
11640s happens to monk players when they don't
11641s have a Healer and it doesn't just dent
11643s on the Monk's ability but the monk is
11646s the figurehead of this composition we
11649s call it Transformers for a reason he's
11650s not going to find any value in that
11652s transform if he goes up against another
11654s Monk who has the safety net he doesn't
11656s have to fall onto
11657s yeah and again it's really interesting
11659s to see that they're replacing the
11661s Eurasian
11663s um and uh the Healer out of the comp
11666s right when you're bringing Justina in
11667s she just doesn't bring that level of
11669s safety and then you lose the healing on
11671s top of it as well and it's also very
11674s interesting as well because Justina
11676s actually brings some Synergy with kurumi
11679s right she's able to actually freeze out
11681s the heel Circle and with the changes
11683s that were made to kurumi last year
11685s kurumi gets to keep healing any players
11688s that would want to come threaten the
11689s monk while the monk is standing in that
11691s Circle are going to find themselves
11693s frozen out right so it buys Justina and
11696s kurumi the ability to step away if they
11699s combine their olds from the monk who has
11701s guaranteed safety inside of the old from
11705s the karuni so why would you not play the
11708s two together and come in with the temi
11711s the only rational ideal I can see coming
11714s out of that is that Justina is kind of
11717s counteracted by a temi ultimate she's
11720s not able to use the old to bypass that
11723s wind wall and you want to have a temi to
11725s cancel out the other potential temi old
11727s but at this point we've seen time and
11730s time again how poorly that serves these
11732s teams why would you continue to bring it
11735s to Bear Moxie yeah we've even seen some
11737s teams as well just put a just you know
11738s Anatomy together because they may
11740s counteract each other when they're on
11741s opposing ends but they also play
11743s together perfectly with the term
11744s ultimate locking downplays we've just
11745s seen the stuff they want to build just
11746s enough I'd rather they keep the Tammy
11748s just for that reason the loans we can
11750s have a look at Casey going toaster with
11752s oud Casey not wanting for ultimate and
11754s at the moment Lily might just be
11756s absolutely annihilated off of having to
11759s go for that stone form try and keep
11761s themselves safe when that Viper Sun
11762s comes through we'll be able however to
11765s get the transformation off onto the yui
11766s as we can actually see both ultimates
11769s have been used both the Monk and the UE
11771s have turned now on to the members
11773s punishing the fact that that Viper son
11775s did not find the kills they were looking
11778s for and as a result one of their best
11780s counters to the Transformer composition
11782s has now been removed you can go for the
11784s ultimates there's no chance of being
11785s stun locked and it being canceled out a
11787s little bit too early so even though you
11789s don't have the Looting to be able to
11790s scale into damage and sustainability
11792s you're still going to be able to find
11794s the kills necessary to come out on top
11796s as we move over to GG going head to head
11799s with OC analali unfortunately going to
11802s be grapple canceled into place by Gigi's
11804s miskia as they come in with the temi
11806s ultimate trying to lock those players
11808s down as we see the Viper try to use the
11811s ultimate pushing the members further
11813s away potential third party humming for
11817s from some of the teams around this
11818s overseas Slayer using that yodel I have
11820s to try and push these members of GG
11822s further away so they have that space to
11824s be able to use the euro ultimate tries
11826s to find the connection will be able to
11827s find one onto Alexander here comes the
11829s zip ultimate to be able to try and keep
11831s these members sustained and analali does
11833s go down three three oh is gonna be able
11836s to turn on them so they are now going to
11838s be removed from this here coming in with
11839s that long so just doing so much damage
11841s tearing through these members allowing
11843s as well that Pulsar to be able to
11845s connect the Stagger off of the long
11847s sword vertical connection allowing all
11850s of the room all the time for the pulse
11851s or to be able to find the kills as over
11854s towards Sun wings ewg and JL are locked
11858s in combat ewg unfortunately not really
11861s getting the room to be able to disengage
11863s if they do they go straight into that
11865s Bane's reference they actually are being
11866s surfing they are holding themselves in
11869s this fight you and somehow having the
11872s RNG to not get caught out by your veins
11874s represents in that tree waiting to see
11877s whether or not he's going to have to try
11879s and grapple away as we can see he gets
11881s caught out by the members pushed onto
11883s the ground and now JL will be able to
11885s claim the killers bioda in the distance
11887s wait for that Bane's rough to run out of
11889s this just about to and here comes that
11892s third party they're trying to lock onto
11893s these members of JL and we can see with
11896s the Viper ultimate they might be able to
11897s do just that they're looking to isolate
11899s one of the members you trying to use
11901s that Focus to be able to give himself a
11904s little bit more distance so even when
11905s the sun connects he's got the space to
11907s be able to survive and that's exactly
11908s what happens bite out with the Viper
11910s ultimate already used haven't been able
11912s to find the kill haven't been able to
11914s deny one of the numbers and as a result
11916s they witch in TP right out of there
11919s yeah about it says we don't want any
11922s part of that anymore they come in with
11924s that Viper like you said looking to lock
11925s down a member of the team but the Takeda
11927s able to utilize their ultimate Year from
11930s Team JL to actually buy Zu the safety uh
11934s that they needed to keep him from
11936s getting completely hyper focused down
11938s and unfortunately for team bound I feel
11940s like there was a little bit of a
11941s miscommunication as we see the repeating
11944s crossbow coming out from about uh trying
11946s to just Pummel as much damage onto the
11948s monk player as humanly possible and the
11950s team a little afraid to go in and start
11953s pumping out some damage onto the monk
11955s because they don't want to shove them
11956s out of the way of that repeating
11958s crossbow and just that moments of
11960s hesitation buying uh Zu and that team
11963s enough time to create some space to keep
11966s the monk player alive uh for themselves
11969s turning now to oug going head to head
11971s here with the KZ uh Jen having a massive
11974s Perry landed onto them but due to the
11976s terrain nobody able to follow up here so
11978s KZ going to get to keep Jen alive here
11982s we're gonna see easily starting to get
11983s separated from the group here and this
11986s is typically what you see right this is
11988s what we talked about with that Target
11989s selection OG trying to Target select on
11992s to hey Z and eliminate the Healer here
11995s for this group that's exactly what we're
11997s going to see happen here as OG is in you
11999s with the Yoda he may ultimate able to
12001s find the Healer there unfortunately the
12004s Grimmy had already used the ultimate so
12006s they're gonna get some mileage out of
12008s their healer here but KZ in a tough
12011s situation in a 2v3 scenario Jen trying
12014s to move back towards the body of hazy
12016s but we're gonna see SS look for the
12019s Viper stun here gonna see them forced to
12021s demuck there unfortunately just time it
12023s barely wrong and the stun will connect
12026s onto kz's gen is he down to a single
12028s member left remaining alive here as oug
12031s continues to stalk their prey we're
12034s gonna see them try to turn onto them
12037s with the pole sword there unfortunately
12039s it's not going to be enough they are
12041s able to find an elimination but they're
12043s not going to be able to find two as a
12045s Perry comes through from oug and oug
12047s will eliminate all three members of KZ
12050s and they're gonna find zinnu back into
12052s the game very quickly yeah Target Focus
12055s coming through just threatening that
12056s kurumi so that in just a dawned if you
12058s do don't if you don't snaro if you don't
12060s use that kurumi ultimate to try and keep
12062s hazy alive you're going to lose the
12064s fight because your room is not going to
12066s be able to be there to keep your monk
12068s topped up when he does go for that monk
12070s form and if you do use it you're still
12072s going to potentially lose that fight
12074s because when you Monk up you're not
12076s gonna have that kurumi heel to be able
12078s to keep them topped up when the pressure
12080s turns onto the monk player instead
12081s really good Focus coming through to deny
12084s easy that existence so that they can't
12086s keep that multiplayer topped up and like
12088s you said having to use both the UE
12090s ultimate as well it does a moment where
12092s they almost are able to turn it around
12094s with the UE ultimate coming through in
12095s the extended stagger off of those UV
12097s strike connections allowing the monk to
12099s be able to come in with the full
12100s lockdown Dragon Slayers into nazarus if
12102s they'd find a kill off of that they
12104s might have been able to win but they
12106s don't because they don't pressure enough
12109s of the members of oud into using that
12111s which ntp to back off instead it's the
12114s Viper ultimate that comes through to
12115s carry on the fight because they've just
12117s seen both the monk ultimate and the UE
12119s ultimate invested and that's literally
12121s green light for that entire composition
12123s right if you bite off a little bit too
12124s more than you can shoot you have the
12125s weekend DP you can make it out of that
12127s even if you lose one of your players you
12129s have the ability to be able to disengage
12130s and take the can with you so there is
12132s very little punishment very little
12134s reason for why you would Retreat from
12136s that fight as OC now is going to be
12138s opening up with a Viper ultimate of
12140s their own analali making that space for
12143s Slayer to come in with the Yoda ultimate
12145s connecting onto the members of wolves
12147s one strike connects two strike connects
12149s they don't manage to find a kill analali
12151s still goes incredibly low as well so
12153s they actually do have to reach ntp right
12156s out of that the good news for them is
12158s that walls aren't running the
12160s composition which they're entirely based
12162s around countering the bad news is that
12164s the TP wasn't very far and as a result
12167s wolves know exactly where they're headed
12170s off to and now they have to hope that
12171s they run into another team to try and
12173s push away that attention that they've
12175s brought upon themselves onto someone
12177s else the problem is this is gate of Yang
12179s time so all of the teams aren't going to
12182s be around they are going to have to
12183s survive the chase until these gate of
12185s Yanks start to close on up as JL takes
12187s so much damage the EU drops the monk
12190s from Early times the tap Dodge makes
12192s himself available underneath that pillar
12194s to make sure doesn't match to find the
12196s grab onto him but one thing is taking so
12198s much damage Sleepwalker has to contest
12200s with as but he's not able to find the
12202s iframe on the tap Dodge and sleep
12204s him down buying himself a little bit of
12207s respite as the monk film has now dropped
12209s out with the Decatur ultimate trying to
12211s come through create that space But it is
12214s all going to be for not UE ultimate
12215s still going to be up for wbg and finally
12219s we're gonna be able to see them take
12221s that gate of Yang fight take that buff
12223s look for the million Birds might pick
12225s themselves up a legendary long sword as
12228s well Sleepwalker is going to be
12229s terrifying to run into in the next
12231s couple of minutes
12233s you know it's gonna be interesting if
12234s I'm that particular team I'm actually
12237s not putting the long sword uh on to
12239s Sleepwalker just because the vertical uh
12242s charge off of that long sword can
12244s actually catch out and damage players
12246s inside the Monk's hand right so it keeps
12248s the other players on your team from
12250s having the hot swap into a ranged weapon
12252s and allows them to continue to pump out
12254s that damage moving forward so it's going
12257s to be interesting to see whether they
12258s keep that long sword on him or decide to
12260s give it to another player so that they
12262s can assist while they have a player
12265s caught up in to grab their ougs in you
12267s here caught out completely by team te
12269s that F3 actually putting in work here
12272s but unfortunately zinyu really has no
12274s place to go as all three members from
12276s teamte just dog them down
12279s oug gonna be down to a single member
12282s left remaining alive te off to another
12284s good game here with the eight
12285s eliminations under their belt uh
12288s Alliance as well with six eliminations
12290s under their belt team GG on little bit
12293s of a back foot yet again in this game as
12295s we take back a replay here te going head
12298s to head here with the members of the
12300s team about uh inside the realm of Yang
12302s and quite honestly te making this fight
12305s look easy coming in Catching two players
12307s out uh with the long sword here vvv with
12310s that haptic attached doing absolute work
12312s for the members of Team te Lyon still
12315s alive here but only off the back of the
12317s damage reduction from the ultimate as
12318s soon as that ultimate goes down te very
12320s easily able to clean up that elimination
12323s and unfortunately uh during both of
12326s those realm of yank fights uh we missed
12328s a fight where team wolves was eliminated
12330s here from game number four by the way on
12333s a composition that we normally talk
12335s about nothing ideal for gate of yarn
12337s compositions but they're still able to
12339s win it as another Viper ultimate comes
12341s through from te opening that fight up
12343s looking for the Stan to land onto Hui
12345s finding that lockdown moment that they
12347s need this is what te does best this is
12349s that bread and butter right whether it's
12351s off of the Yodo F1 what for if it's the
12353s Viper coming through from VV they
12355s isolate out a member of the pack so they
12358s can just look for that kill and then we
12360s see the weapons come through and they
12363s just exchange staggers long swords there
12366s every single time one of them isn't
12369s finding a hit another is finding a hit
12372s they have such a good just trading of
12374s tempo when they're looking for those
12375s three versus ones of making sure that
12377s the player random doesn't get that
12378s opportunity doesn't get that window to
12380s be able to buy the time for Pure to come
12382s through from the rest of their teammates
12383s they're isolated in five seconds so that
12385s they're just gone as JL might be gone in
12388s the next one minute 36 seconds if
12390s they're not able to pick themselves up
12391s as Soul Bloom zero finds a grab onto
12393s Gigi's miskier who unfortunately is
12396s going to go down one thing comes through
12398s the repeating course but follow up and
12399s now Alexander's got out there's a long
12401s sword follow-up that you were talking
12402s about the vertical clicks come through
12404s from Air to connect on to the other
12406s members of GG and this is going to be JL
12409s off of a really successful monk grab
12412s finding them themselves two Soul blooms
12414s to counteract that young depletion 330
12417s on the zip is able to sustain themselves
12419s from will be able to try and disengage
12422s and as if at least is going to have the
12423s means to be able to go for especially if
12426s that looks like it was tuna then a free
12428s Frio is going to have access to problem
12430s is that you are currently in zone
12432s territory in zipulas unfortunately a
12434s little bit affected by that zone too
12436s because we can now see Alliance going
12438s head-to-head with ewg 2 tick on the
12440s receiving end of the Yoda ultimate
12442s coming through from Lucky staggering him
12444s down for one as lucky comes into the
12446s interception on the grapple catching
12448s them
12451s buy the team and he doesn't manage to
12454s find the kill goes incredibly low
12456s however Alliance are still able to push
12458s them into using and investing that which
12460s ntp and now Alliance are on full alert
12464s but ewg teleport backwards they're going
12468s to be found out we see the rain shots
12470s come through from zwan they know where
12472s they run off to but by teleporting
12474s backwards they've actually bought
12475s themselves a little bit of a window to
12477s be able to find that full reset as lucky
12479s who was also needing a moment to breathe
12482s is going to be handed out on a platter
12484s as both of these teams fight both of
12486s them invest a little bit and decide that
12488s it's better since the fight's gone on
12490s for so long and alternates have been
12491s invested to call the entire thing off so
12493s that you don't suffer a little bit
12495s further along the line like five seconds
12496s later when another team shows up and
12498s looks for that third party intrusion
12501s you know Moxie I I think I've decided
12503s I'm gonna stop talking about team GG the
12506s the second I even remotely mentioned
12508s them doing all right I didn't even say
12510s they were having a good game I said they
12512s were they were off to a start of a game
12515s and we immediately turned to cube GG
12518s losing two of its members it's like they
12520s really are cursed if you talk about the
12522s miscasters they just uh find themselves
12524s getting eliminated turning now to a
12526s replay between KLA and balda and
12528s unfortunately think I know where this
12530s goes because we see KLA getting
12532s eliminated on The Kill V lion TT here
12535s able to find some huge hits onto ykc and
12537s then the follow-up from about able to
12539s just lock that player down and we're
12541s gonna see here the pull sword coming in
12543s huge here against the Justina able to
12546s find the follow-up after the Justina
12547s comes out of the freeze pumping some big
12549s damage out as Baldock cleans up all
12551s three members of Team KLA and it's very
12554s unfortunate for a team like KLA who's
12556s been towards the top three in every
12558s single one of these games they've been
12559s able to find a lot of consistency today
12562s and unfortunately that consistency going
12564s to go down the drain here as they have a
12566s very poor performance in the game number
12569s four turning now to team JL going head
12571s to head here with the members of ewgzu
12573s able to find a grab here on to a member
12576s of ewg but unfortunately the Mongol
12578s going to go down immediately into a
12581s Viper they're able to use that stop to
12583s create some distance to get in the zone
12585s to avoid the stun but AES is going to go
12587s down in the meanwhile in ewg is going to
12591s secure themselves this Moore's blessing
12593s pick up that Draco storm as well and the
12596s members of this other team going to be
12598s forced away and as we talk in KZ finds
12602s their third elimination of the game and
12603s unfortunately it's on to GG's 330 and
12606s that's going to be it for team GG
12608s and by the way wbg was the only team to
12611s walk into a gate of young side and it is
12613s the second gate so no surprises there
12615s but it means that they're going to be
12617s able to pick up that Mystic mic for
12618s absolutely free it does mean however
12620s that all of these other teams aren't on
12622s that pressure cooker situation where
12624s they have four minutes of finding Soul
12625s blooms and throwing ultimates in so that
12627s they can pick those kills up as quickly
12630s as possible as ug's SS go and choose the
12632s Viper ultimate not going to be able to
12634s find a connection just using it to
12636s create a little bit more space for them
12637s to be able to breathe with so that they
12639s can use that great sword uh grapple up
12641s onto the tree create even more distance
12643s between themselves and ewg that zontec
12645s is going to start to hurt at the moment
12647s they've also got a bounty on their head
12648s too so they can't really disengage this
12651s Chase as easy as they would like because
12653s they just have to go a little bit
12654s further into the zone ewg are going to
12656s hunt that down every single day of the
12658s week unfortunately as we see the stone
12660s film just come through from SS hasn't
12662s really got any chance of being able to
12664s throw the blue back onto ewg as well
12666s because he doesn't have two teammates
12667s flanking him so there is no way that
12670s that is not just immediately going to be
12671s tap dodged backwards and then powery
12674s turned on to you by the players of ewg
12677s as te have been able to find themselves
12680s 11 kills I'm hoping that we're going to
12682s see them play just a little bit slower
12684s now just a little bit more passively
12685s waiting for some of these other teams
12687s around them to make those mistakes is
12689s going to be significantly harder however
12690s to find a monk composition to sort of
12693s play symbiote off of given the fact that
12696s we only have two monkas uh compositions
12698s currently left in the lobby as we can
12700s see txj actually has a bounty on their
12703s heads as it is going to be them just
12706s making sure that they don't get spotted
12708s in a position where they can be caught
12710s so much between two teams they do have a
12711s flamer however so if any team does get
12714s extremely close enough they're going to
12715s be able to talk to that and threaten a
12716s lot of space especially when we head
12718s towards those final zones and you want
12719s to find a little corner to keep your
12722s head underneath the power of pets so you
12724s don't raise it a little bit too early
12725s you don't have to throw the Viper
12727s ultimate in as a lot of time we do see
12729s the Viper ultimate the second that
12731s you've used it that opens the floodgates
12733s for all of the other teams around you to
12735s pressure in knowing that you can't
12736s really use the wu-chan all that
12738s effectively in those final zones given
12740s that you sort of panic you don't have a
12742s lot of time to figure out where you want
12743s to drop that or what you want to
12744s teleport to and a lot of the time when
12745s we see teams oh no I was going to say
12747s teleport they just teleport into further
12749s danger and that's exactly what's used as
12751s found runs right into the little Ambush
12753s coming through from OC who will wait in
12756s crouching the purple invisibility Bush
12758s to see whether or not some of those
12759s players would be caught out in the zone
12762s and he just walks straight into all
12763s three of them um
12765s oh that's super unfortunate you know
12767s sometimes those bushes really can be a
12769s death trap you never know when a full
12771s team's just gonna walk out and uh eat
12774s one of your players alive especially
12775s when you're solo like Zu was there uh
12778s there's not a whole lot you can too
12779s about that situation with the Zone
12782s pressuring on you like that you can't
12783s really uh look to play Super safe around
12786s all of those bushes you have to uh go
12789s with the information that you've got we
12790s see Zu find out that his uh information
12792s is a little incomplete OC picks up the
12795s elimination there you know down to 24
12797s players left alive surprisingly much yet
12800s again the pacing of these games
12801s continuing to heat up as typically you
12805s know 24 players is what we had left
12807s going into zones four and five the last
12810s couple of games and we're currently on
12812s zone three collapsing on to zone four
12814s right now these games getting hyper
12817s aggressive it sort of makes more sense
12820s though right we had significantly less
12821s monk compositions Comfort Windows Lobby
12824s and we've talked at La pumps on the fact
12826s that this Yoda vibe from which one is
12828s becoming more often than not early to
12830s mid game so all of these teams running
12832s that composition understanding they
12834s don't really have the means of
12836s succeeding in places like Gates of Yang
12837s want to eliminate the composite
12839s competition as quickly as possible so
12842s like you said the fact that we're
12843s already down to 24 players is definitely
12846s not something we're typically used to
12848s seeing but when you're playing this High
12851s progressively when you have the means to
12852s be able to play this High Progressive as
12854s well remember like Yodo doesn't have
12856s that same pressure that these monk
12858s compositions do with when you use an
12859s ultimate you have to have dilute to
12861s scaled up to make sure that it hurts
12863s Yoda ultimate does so much damage on its
12866s own especially when you're early in the
12867s game and you don't have that armor to
12869s chunk through significantly even the
12871s Viper ultimate if a stun connection is
12873s early the game as opposed to late final
12875s Zone where everyone's running around
12876s with purples and legendaries given the
12878s fact that we are playing Immortal War
12880s where that loot here is a lot more
12883s scarce than it is and in either normal
12885s ranks or just your unranked quick play
12887s games it's a lot harder for these
12890s players to be able to survive a Viper
12893s ultimate in those final zones than it is
12895s at the beginning of the game so a lot of
12897s the time for these teams when you throw
12898s an ultimate in you're able to find the
12900s kills very very quickly and we're seeing
12903s teams who use the switch ntps who have
12905s to carry the cans out get clapsed upon
12907s either by the team that they were
12909s currently fighting or teams waiting in
12911s the area to see that signal fly go up
12912s and understand okay it has Prime
12914s opportunity for us to slide in they have
12916s no means of Escape
12918s yeah you know there was a small change
12920s made to each and um before we came into
12922s the season as well where that Wu channel
12925s the visibility on the teleport was made
12928s vertically a little bit higher so that
12931s teams on the sort of flat ground were
12933s able to track down that ultimate just a
12936s little bit easier as well and that
12939s visual aid really showing its head here
12942s uh as lately as like you said
12945s um sort of many many of these wuchens uh
12947s teleporting out of the frying band Into
12949s the Fire uh finding themselves face to
12952s face with either another team or the
12953s team that they teleported away from very
12955s easily uh being able to track them down
12958s we are heading in here 35 seconds away
12961s from zone five being collapsed on two
12964s and kind of a mini version of this
12967s Buccaneer phase we haven't seen too much
12969s of this sort of uh Buccaneer phase in
12972s our last three games but some of these
12974s teams starting to take those pokes at
12976s one another here no surprise is either
12978s seeing a lot of that Canon coming
12981s through and we'll probably see yet again
12983s every single game thus far we've seen
12985s the MVP rolling up with that repair roll
12989s a soul Jade really starting to Define
12992s The Meta and again you know we could
12994s talk ad nauseum at length about how
12997s important it is to be able to maintain
12999s the uptime uh on those ranged weapons to
13003s be able to harass these other teams and
13005s keep them from pressuring onto you
13007s because the problem being uh with this
13009s sort of Buccaneer phase is that if
13011s there's a lull in your assault if
13013s there's a lull in the the damage the
13016s threat that comes from that range damage
13019s coming out of your team that lull is
13021s going to be the point at which these
13024s other teams are able to pressure onto
13026s you and evict you from the sort of space
13028s that you've been able to find for
13031s yourselves so if you're able to keep
13033s that repair roll your uptime is almost
13035s infinite you're able to uh repair three
13039s times as quickly and you've got iframes
13042s during that repair so you don't have to
13044s run off to somewhere and find a safe
13046s place to get that repair off you can do
13048s it in the face of the enemy team and
13050s continue to just Pummel down onto the
13052s moxie yeah legendary flamer can be
13055s picked up from ewg given the fact that
13057s they were able to open that model's
13059s blessing with some really good wind
13061s walls placed by year on tuna also going
13064s to be that are probably going to just
13065s trade between it so that they all have
13067s that tuna just consistent buff going
13069s through in case they do get pressured as
13071s we can see ewg trying to find themselves
13073s in a safe spot because now celestra has
13076s become a question do you want to paint
13077s yourself a Target and take that prior
13079s High Ground Control knowing that there
13082s are pros and there are cons the pros you
13085s can see so many players around you you
13086s can pressure all of these players in
13088s these small knit rooms especially with
13090s things like the Canon if you have found
13091s shell it's a death sentence but all of
13093s these players stuck inside room if this
13095s bone shell starts to come into play my
13096s goodness but you also paint a
13098s significant Target on your back you
13100s don't have those natural walls to be
13101s able to hide behind if you get pressure
13103s by things like Viper ultimate or a Yodo
13105s they have a lot more room to be able to
13107s maneuver into that fight as opposed to
13109s if you're playing in those small rooms
13110s where you're taking more pressure from
13112s the cannon sure when it comes to the
13114s actual players and abilities well a
13116s Viper's not just going to immediately
13117s grapple into a small room and try and
13118s use an ultimate because they're going to
13120s be significantly slowed down they're not
13121s going to be able to go over the
13122s windowsill too so if they try and come
13124s in and intrude in that space you're just
13126s gonna climb over the door and
13128s immediately just disengage and the Viper
13131s ultimate is going to do absolutely
13132s nothing but it seems like a lot that
13134s seems want that High Ground want that
13136s roof control want to be able to have
13137s that space where the Viper can charge
13139s the ultimate and then drop down to
13141s connect on the players below and more
13143s importantly they want that space to be
13145s able to keep these ultimates charged up
13147s for as long as possible which is why
13149s we're seeing te Vie for the roof over
13151s this Bell KZ live for the roof opposite
13154s as Boda have decided that they're going
13157s to have to just take the scraps off the
13158s space left behind kz's hazy using that
13161s kurumi Tabor trying to get this
13163s Resurrection to connect onto one of
13164s their members that's down gen even going
13167s for the monk form just to try and keep
13169s these players zoned away threatened by
13172s the monk if anyone one tries to push
13174s onto this kurumi until that tether has
13176s done its job the grabs are going to be
13178s waiting in the wings as hazy has been
13180s able to resurrect literally the
13182s unfortunate thing for Katie though is
13184s that they've had to use both ultimates
13185s gen using that cancel to get away from
13187s the Viper spinner coming through from te
13189s if they decide to move on to bioda who
13192s are going to be evicted the Witch and TP
13194s coming through and he immediately
13195s occupying that space and Casey have been
13198s handed a get out of jail free card the
13200s fact that they'd use both the Monk and
13202s the UE ultimate should have been their
13203s death sentence should have been them
13204s immediately out of this Lobby given the
13206s fact that all of these comms are
13208s literally engineered about punishing
13209s those comps when they don't have those
13211s ultimates even pushing onto the cons
13212s when they do have the ultimates but by
13214s te making that move on to baira TZ or
13217s entirely absent in the kill feed
13220s yeah KZ able to get away there and you
13223s know they weren't quite the terrible
13225s situation as well as there was a fourth
13227s team pressuring them from behind we see
13229s when they de monk their actually a Venom
13231s tip and a repeating crossbow starting to
13234s pump damage out uh on to their monk
13237s player and it's so fortunate that
13239s they're able to get away amidst all this
13242s chaos Bala really buying them the space
13244s to be able to actually position closer
13246s to te and get away from that sort of
13249s fourth party threat and then move away
13251s from all four of those teams uh through
13254s Central celestra here ewg uh getting
13256s picked up by the members of wbg
13258s Sleepwalker able to land a grab here but
13261s not able to find the follow-up grab or
13263s the double grab so Sleepwalker uh
13266s finding himself very vulnerable as uh
13268s ewg will be using that wu-chan old to go
13271s vertical and come out on top of them AOW
13273s also looking to come in here Ping Tao
13276s with the Viper not quite sure why they
13279s actually step away uh into the building
13282s here but they're not going to get any
13284s mileage out of the old they will be able
13285s to find wbg Sleepwalker though uh off
13289s the back of shoots on coming in and
13291s playing extremely aggressive to follow
13293s up with the yodohime ultimate ewg here
13296s uh all on the inside of this building
13298s wbg's Jing on the other side here and it
13301s looks like Xiao Liu trying to pressure
13302s on to Jing Jing just trying to keep it
13305s together for the members of wbg Xiao you
13307s uh being covered here by two tick with
13310s the F3 so that they can utilize
13313s um the sold Jade there to get a little
13315s bit of yelling here shall you
13316s trying to come in with those nunchucks
13318s that dragons are trying to create space
13320s for the members of the team as we turn
13322s back to KZ gen top side here with that
13326s monk transformation going to be making
13328s KZ a Target and we're gonna see Lily
13331s down yet again KZ trying to find that
13334s tether he easily had the tether on to
13336s Lily but will be losing it Jen just
13339s trying to buy some damage out here Lily
13341s using that vertical long sword slash we
13343s talked about to pump out enough damage
13345s for Jen to be able to pick up the
13347s elimination here Jen needs to be careful
13349s though with a huge yo you may ultimate
13351s coming up from underneath of them they
13353s can find themselves on the receiving end
13355s of some pain but te luckily focused on
13358s to the members of ewgte going to find
13360s their 15th elimination here in this game
13363s and surprisingly with all the chaos
13365s going on Alliance is uh quite quiet we
13368s haven't seen them pop into the kill feed
13370s uh in a hot minute Here aow's Pink Tau
13373s able to find a massive stun but then
13375s stunned him back onto by TSB vvv and te
13378s gonna start coming in looking for quite
13380s a few eliminations here and almost as if
13383s to come out of nowhere Alliance finds
13385s themselves popping on the kill feed but
13386s not the way they were hoping to is they
13388s find themselves eliminated here from a
13390s game number four just so close from the
13393s very end of the circle OC also going to
13395s go out as KZ starts to find some
13398s eliminations this game KZ finally
13400s finding themselves alive in some sort of
13403s space in a bi-weekly the first time that
13406s they've uh hit six kills in almost three
13409s weeks here kz's gen looking to try to
13412s find anything here wants to continue to
13415s extend this lead that they've been able
13418s to create for themselves here extend
13420s some more kills here and see if they
13422s can't finally climb up this leaderboard
13424s just a little bit t-e's txj though gonna
13427s come in here onto the otagine ultimate
13429s not going to be able to find a grab
13430s cases Jen gonna find himself stunned out
13432s by multiple Viper holds and that's gonna
13434s be it for Jen as they're eliminated and
13436s it's easy Leo who continues to find
13438s mileage for team te here as they find
13441s multiple eliminations vvv gonna find one
13443s on to aow's Pink Tau as well t e going
13447s to find the pop-off game that they've
13449s been looking for the back to back I'm
13453s going to find the elimination but te
13455s gonna be walking away your MVPs for game
13457s number four Moxie T again every single
13460s time we see them when it just is them
13462s controlling that final Zone they have
13465s such good awareness too throwing in that
13466s witch and TP to buy themselves a little
13468s bit of iframe and a little bit more time
13470s so that they're not taking Zone tick
13472s damage they're also not putting
13473s themselves into a fight against the yui
13475s by the time that the Witch and TP uh
13478s pays off the UV ultimate is about to
13480s drop so they're able to secure the kill
13481s into that too and no surprises either
13484s they're able to just continue to
13485s pressure those players outside of that
13488s zone into that zone tick this is exactly
13490s what te does best that's so aggressive
13492s early on and then on their good games on
13495s their good games they play a little bit
13497s more conservatively until we see that
13499s zone collapse and then they make that
13501s move however I do want to talk about
13503s Casey because this team oh they went for
13507s a couple of UPS they went for some
13508s significant irons but they identify what
13513s they're lacking in terms of when they're
13515s actually taking those fights especially
13517s when they take that fight uh up over the
13519s archway itself Haisley is actually
13521s having to use the tether to revive Lily
13525s who went down again but Jen is still
13528s holding onto the monk form so they make
13530s sure that Jen is actually monked up on
13532s the archway itself so that he is out of
13535s line of sight of a lot of those players
13537s and if they do want to openly contest
13539s them they're going to have to use either
13541s a grapple where they're going to be
13542s susceptible to the grab or more likely
13545s the Yoda ultimate the problem is if they
13547s use the ultimate to find out verticality
13549s to pressure the Monk on that High Ground
13551s they've already used that first opening
13554s slash and exhausted the golden phone
13556s where you cannot get grabbed out to
13559s climb onto that high ground and they're
13561s going to be in a space where they can
13563s easily get plugs out of the ultimate
13565s early and grabbed down by Casey's gen
13568s it's really smart play coming from this
13569s team identifying what they're lacking
13572s what they're not going to have what they
13573s normally need to keep that monk topped
13576s up given the fact that he is surrounded
13578s he is in enemy lined by yodos and Vipers
13581s and Wu Chans who are his mortal enemies
13583s this is a composition created to counter
13586s everything Casey run with but they're
13588s still able to find Value
13590s yeah no I mean Casey does a really good
13592s job here unfortunate for Casey it's not
13595s what they need this is a team that's
13597s been down all season they haven't really
13599s been able to find any sort of space
13601s whatsoever and I hate to say it this
13604s might possibly be the best game that
13606s they've had all season and given the
13609s fact that they were only able to put
13610s together six eliminations and then find
13612s themselves going out relatively early in
13614s the final Circle that says a lot about
13617s this team Casey really
13619s um hasn't just been able to find any
13622s sort of space for themselves uh in this
13624s given season and this is a team that
13627s even though they struggled last year
13629s typically found themselves in the middle
13631s of the pack whereas this season they are
13633s typically in last place every time we
13636s see this team uh whether it be for the
13638s match or the overall standings for the
13640s week so KZ has a lot of work to put in
13644s this season as we take a look at the
13646s leaderboard for this game it's gonna be
13647s te with 20 eliminations and a second
13650s place finished it's going to be walking
13651s away with a 35 game score wbeg with 12
13655s eliminations and a third place finish
13657s will be taking a 20.5 and AOW with their
13661s six eliminations at a first place finish
13662s we walking away with a 14.6 yeah it's a
13665s circle as well like when AOW pressure
13667s onto wbg would
13671s slide past
13674s pretty close in the area I think they
13677s knew because wpg had already lost that
13679s kurumi that they didn't really need to
13682s have the stunts connect onto the monk as
13684s well given the fact that WBT Sleepwalk
13685s had just used the ultimate and they
13688s instead wanted to stop that uh third
13690s party potentially coming for what
13691s they're going to be called Arnold was
13693s and just make sure that that building is
13695s isolated and secure for them which is
13698s the Smart play like you I was a little
13699s bit like huh you open up this fight with
13702s a Viper ultimate and then you just walk
13704s right past the monk that you're trying
13705s to look down okay but I think they were
13707s just using that monk ultimate to that
13709s Viper ultimate rather to Spook wpg
13711s because they were about to stick that
13713s revive in the kurumi and if the kurumi
13715s comes up they're immediately going to
13717s drop the ultimate they're immediately
13718s going to be topped almost back up to
13720s full and then they have the means of
13722s sustaining WBT Sleepwalker into being
13724s able to build the ultimate back up
13726s that's your most uh concerning factor in
13729s that fight right we even see the F3 from
13731s the Yoda come through to make sure that
13733s he's pushed off of that body and isn't
13734s able to find the revive for wbg the team
13737s that I talked about heading into this
13739s game doing significantly better than
13742s we've seen them I've said like all
13744s series they've been quietly finding
13745s these skills here and there but they
13747s haven't really had the pop-off games
13748s that we've come to associate with this
13750s team
13751s yeah no wvg is very interesting you know
13755s we're talking about a team that
13756s absolutely dominated the first season of
13758s the nbpl and a team that has quite
13761s potentially one of the best monks in the
13764s league or somebody who's always been in
13766s contention for one of the best monks in
13768s the league and this is just a team that
13770s this season
13772s um like you said I don't think they're
13774s playing worse than they've played in
13777s other Seasons I think it's that the
13779s other teams have really started to catch
13781s up to the skill level of wbg and wbg
13786s themselves have done no growing to
13790s accommodate for the skill level increase
13792s of these other teams and that's a
13794s problem and that's exactly what we were
13796s talking about just before the start of
13797s this game that if you're a team like te
13800s that's finding yourself resting on your
13802s laurels as these other teams start to
13805s improve you're going to find yourself
13806s starting to fall lower and lower on
13809s these leaderboards and that's exactly
13811s what wbg seems to be suffering from
13814s right now as a team they haven't really
13817s lost the skill level that they've been
13819s bringing they just haven't
13821s improved any and you can't continue to
13824s play the same way at the same skill
13826s level while all the other teams continue
13829s to get better and again we're going to
13831s turn back and look at Team Alliance as
13833s an example of the team that has been
13835s doing much better you know we talk about
13837s teams you know like KZ that were
13840s consistently in the middle of the pack
13841s finding themselves at the bottom of the
13843s pack it's because teams like team
13845s Alliance who were typically at the
13847s bottom of the back during our last two
13848s seasons are now finding themselves
13850s towards the middle and top of the pack
13853s almost every single game because of the
13856s improvements that come through gonna
13857s take a look here and of course our MVP
13860s is going to be txj this time the
13862s yodohime player coming through
13865s look at this Sky Force Heart Stopper
13866s kick and armor Pierce and of course we
13869s see that armor pure slow shot combo
13871s almost always coming through together
13873s for these players who are looking to use
13875s the musket and we're going to see txj
13877s here able to put together 6 000 damage
13880s off of the musket alone moxie
13882s and again no surprises either of the
13884s selected skills like txj instead of
13887s pioneered
13890s trios I love it I love the early
13893s aggression I love that te sort of use it
13895s like almost a miniature Viper ultimate
13897s what they just use it to be able to
13900s force these players away from that team
13902s likely so this is what PE does best they
13905s look to isolate teams I they like to
13907s make sure that they're able to pick from
13909s one person and then move together as a
13911s unit playing off of weapons daggers and
13913s the fact that they have three players as
13914s the first one to just continue to be
13916s able to win these fights and move very
13918s quickly from one player to the next I
13921s however want to talk about GG because
13924s Gigi unfortunately had another bit of a
13928s rough performance today like this is the
13931s thing I think for Gigi a lot of these
13932s teams are very sort of emotionally based
13936s I think Gigi is probably one of those as
13938s well we don't see it as much because
13939s Unfortunately they don't tend to make it
13941s into the finals on when they're having
13942s those Rock the days but I've seen the
13945s fact that when they get grabbed out
13947s seemingly randomly by some of these monk
13949s players that they don't even know know
13950s they have to watch out for because
13952s that's so far away like Gigi just kind
13954s of snap they hit this point where they
13956s decide okay we know we're supposed to
13958s layer ultimates but we're just gonna
13959s throw both Transformer ultimates in so
13961s we don't potentially get crapped out
13964s into the middle of nowhere and lost a
13966s little bit earlier on and unfortunately
13968s for GG it's a monk comp that they run
13971s into and it's monk comp that they just
13974s continued to be grabbed out by and
13976s counted by and it feels like this team
13978s just has a nightmare when they run into
13980s that particular composition and I don't
13983s know why because mechanically we know
13985s that they have the prowess to be able to
13987s beat the monkamp we've seen miskier on
13989s Yodo absolutely dumpster mung con
13992s positions with the ultimate making sure
13994s that they're playing around about those
13996s teleports they're not getting grabbed
13998s out and cancel out of the ultimate early
13999s that they don't give that space that
14001s they're creating for the other two
14002s teammates or way too much and today and
14006s as of late in 2023 it just feels like
14008s Gigi are lacking a little a little bit
14010s of something a little bit of that spark
14012s occasionally we see it showing through
14013s but a lot of the time it's just not
14015s there
14016s you know it here here's the thing with
14018s Team GG and this is this is something
14020s I'm gonna call this team out on uh in
14022s doing and you know 330 has always been
14026s in you know we talk about the contention
14028s for the top three monks in the league
14030s 330 is one of those players the problem
14033s for team GG is they're not building this
14036s composition around 3 30 and we've given
14039s teams in the past a little bit of grief
14042s for kind of building their comps around
14044s a single player but this is the meta to
14048s do that in we're in a very very monk
14051s heavy meta where there's multiple
14053s different compositions being run for
14055s month you can almost play A variation of
14057s the monk uh you know comp every single
14061s game this would be the meta to build
14064s around a player like GG's 330 but it
14067s feels like they've kind of thrown that
14069s to the wind they're playing this more
14071s hit and run strategy that suits a player
14074s like Gigi's mistia much better but it
14077s leaves 3 30 in this sort of awkward
14079s situation where he's used to being the
14082s front runner for the team he's used to
14084s being able to get to those final circles
14086s and pop off in that final Circle but
14088s Gigi's plan is not to play around him
14091s and not to play around those final
14092s circles it's more to look for those
14094s early to mid game kills with these sort
14096s of Hit and Run tactics and they're kind
14098s of leaving their best chess piece if you
14101s will Exposed on the board 330 is not
14104s able to get to those final circles which
14106s is where he has typically thrived in the
14109s previous seasons and because of that
14112s it's costing team GG quite drastically
14116s sing a pattern emerged for a lot of
14118s these teams who were carried over from
14120s 2022 like if you're a little bit too
14122s stuck in the past if you're sticking to
14125s what works in 2022 it's not quite
14128s working over you in 2023 and I think a
14130s good example of a team who didn't have a
14133s brilliant start of 2022 but towards the
14136s latter end of it really started popping
14138s off and innovating a whole lot more is
14140s JT and J team have sort of identified
14144s that there has been a significant shift
14145s not just in how we approach like early
14148s game mid game and final game they've
14150s also identified that there is a little
14153s bit of a gap in terms of matter and what
14155s was defined as matter and they decided
14158s to just keep experimenting and from
14160s these compositions in innovating these
14162s comps the way that we saw them do
14164s towards the later half of 2022 where
14166s they won this ticket on Morris Isle
14169s instead of holleruff because of the
14170s fireflies and it forces the other teams
14173s around them to adopt that strategy and
14176s have to practice more time taken away
14179s from quote unquote the more comfortable
14180s comps where they might find better
14182s pop-off games to being able to learn an
14185s entirely different composition that
14187s they've never really had to field and J
14189s team have continued to do that and
14191s continue to put on the table all of
14192s these ideas of what could potentially be
14194s matter and I think a brilliant example
14196s of that is the debate between this
14199s Justina in the the monk Transformer
14201s composition because we've seen teams try
14204s to make do of it and it's always
14206s affected them negatively and it means
14208s that they're giving up these games
14210s they're giving up these points that
14211s don't allow them to keep up with some of
14214s these other teams who might not have
14215s amazing pop-up game moments but
14217s consistently they're able to put decent
14219s amounts of points on the board and as a
14221s result qualify it by playing safely they
14224s make it into the bi-weeklies they keep
14225s adding to that tally to not have to go
14228s for a rep Calgary
14230s yeah you know again it's
14233s I think you hit the nail on the head
14235s right J team is the team that sort of
14237s comes in and Pioneers uh these comps and
14239s typically it's the rest of the league
14241s kind of following suit we've seen teams
14244s like jjh starting to experiment with
14247s Justina in particular comps and finding
14249s success but like you said this
14251s particular monk comp that's using
14253s Justina here really not buying these
14256s teams the dividends that they were
14258s hoping to find with maybe trying to
14260s Pioneer this sort of new comp and it
14263s really comes down to a lack of
14265s understanding of how some of these comps
14267s work right at the end of the day I think
14269s some of these teams very well understand
14273s how to not only pilot these comps but
14276s why these comps work the way that they
14278s do and it's teams that are starting to
14280s experiment with comps that don't
14283s understand uh why the comps work the way
14286s that they do that are starting to slot
14288s Heroes uh into weird positions in these
14290s comps and those teams are going to
14292s suffer for that experimentation rather
14295s than find themselves flourishing
14297s I think GG has sort of struck world with
14300s the fact that while they can keep free
14302s through on this monk they also have to
14304s now incorporate this barrier and that
14306s throws off a lot of the tempo of pacing
14309s of how you would treat it because no
14311s longer are you using that sort of UE
14313s player to cover put them on with their
14315s own body with their own ultimate the
14317s fairy just drops the pillar and the monk
14319s when he's pressured after dropping the
14321s ultimate gets to hop into it and find
14323s that space to recover so that little bit
14325s of dynamic shift is having a significant
14328s impact but here's here's a trick te I've
14332s decided that they're going to try and
14334s make this Justina work and they actually
14336s I'm fine with this like I'm a little bit
14338s concerned that there is not going to be
14339s any healing so txa consistently because
14342s no zip no kurumi however they're keeping
14345s lyd on this Tammy so if you get
14347s pressured by range five or things like
14348s repeating crossbows you've got the Tammy
14350s ultimate to fall back onto and more
14352s importantly there is synergy there is
14354s lockdown capacity with lyd and vvv
14357s because vvv obviously with the Justine
14359s around you can still move around freely
14361s as opposed to the tummy when you drop it
14363s it's static it's going to stay there but
14366s you're still going to be able to have a
14367s lot more control of the players around
14369s you when they're fighting into the
14370s Minecon my only concern is that lack of
14374s healing are they going to be able to
14376s survive to make it into final Zone where
14378s you're finding the most amount of eye
14380s with this composition where both the
14381s Timmy and Justina have an absolute
14383s Smorgasbord of players to be able to
14386s choose between to lockdown
14388s yeah I don't really agree with the pick
14390s coming through here again I think that
14392s if you're going to be running this
14393s particular comp
14394s I I get the mentality right you're
14397s worried about Justina finding value
14399s into these other teams that are running
14401s to Mulk
14402s because Justina not able to utilize her
14405s old to cross the barrier of those
14406s temiolts so you're thinking okay let's
14409s bring a temi of Our Own in that way if
14411s we you know get a Tamil popped out we
14414s can just trade temi Olson or Justina can
14416s still find Value like you said though
14418s not having that healing available to
14421s come through for your team is a massive
14424s detriment when you're removing uh that
14428s key component that other Transformer
14430s who's going to be able to cover uh for
14433s your Tian high as he's de-transforming
14435s so t e is going to be interesting to see
14438s if they find any value out of this comp
14440s is we immediately turn to uh Team wolves
14443s here ironically uh Team wolves being
14446s destroyed by a former member here jails
14449s one Fang of course being a former member
14451s of the original team wolves and uh one
14454s thing tearing through his uh old team
14457s composition here as JL is able to pick
14460s up three eliminations off the bat of the
14462s very beginning of this game here and AOW
14464s gonna find the same on to team Bow Down
14469s think they've identified
14474s they know that they are going to be
14475s vulnerable one that ultimate drops out
14477s happy to see that the moon bin is going
14479s to be coming from the very early on the
14481s problem is AOW is also going to purchase
14483s that and only one team can have a pain
14485s strut going on at once so if AOW
14489s actually dropped the bains breath when
14491s tea you want to use it they are going to
14492s be denied the ability to do so so I'm
14495s just really hoping that he don't hinge
14498s too much of a plan of action on being
14500s able to throw that voucher in as oud
14503s ring that Bell see that no one is in the
14506s area it's going to be looted so they do
14508s know that they're replaced potentially
14510s Orion to have moved up towards plumed as
14513s we can see aligns and jail are those two
14515s teams that have moved up towards plume
14517s as with a gorgeous Yoda ultimate catches
14520s the first one to land holds that third
14522s will be able to find the connection and
14524s the kill as it is going to be Lynn with
14526s that staff just using that charge up to
14529s elongate the distance between themselves
14531s and the Viper ultimate and Escape that's
14532s done however they are going to be chased
14534s down as lucky also fell in The Fray and
14537s it is just a matter of whether or not
14539s they can survive the chase coming
14541s through from as one thing going to be
14543s camping that body making sure no
14545s Shenanigans are a fact that there's
14547s going to be no double tracking towards
14549s those bodies to get a little bit of a
14551s cheeky revive out from under the team's
14553s nose but this is still going to be
14555s unfortunately a really bad start for
14558s reliance
14559s yeah unfortunately a line's not going to
14562s be finding the same level of favor that
14564s they've been finding throughout the rest
14565s of the day here uh in a game at number
14567s five turning your attention over to team
14569s GG as if to talk about teams that
14571s haven't been able to find the same level
14573s of traction all day uh we immediately uh
14577s turned to look at the boys here from
14579s Team GG now back to OC and AOW looking
14584s to go head to head here OC just trying
14586s to hold on to the space threaten it with
14589s the scale rushes as they try to lock
14591s down this member of AOW coming through
14593s but AOW like you said having purchased
14596s the Bane's breath earlier actually gonna
14597s find themselves in quite the good
14599s situation they can continue to take this
14601s fight inside and have no worries as OC
14604s can't break away from this uh we're
14607s immediately gonna see Zen men go down
14609s and now a Yoda he may slash coming
14610s through the wall as well is just going
14613s to buy so much space for the members of
14615s AOW as they also have that Bane's breath
14618s to continue to cover over the bodies for
14621s them here AOW gets to pick up two
14623s eliminations and walk away scot-free
14626s from that fight and I really like the
14629s utilization of the Bane's breath if you
14631s know you've got an enemy team trying to
14633s hold the space like that and you can
14635s turn that Advantage into a detriment you
14637s absolutely do that AOW able to find a
14641s lot of value off of just that one's
14643s Bane's breath as we turn to KLA now
14645s going head to head here with the members
14647s of Team t-e-t-e running this Justine
14649s among comp we've been talking about
14651s we're gonna see if they're able to find
14653s any sort of value out of it here KLA
14657s trying to get in position to make
14658s something happen with these monkey robs
14660s txj trying to do the same on behalf of
14662s Team te here Ugg is just gonna start
14664s pumping out some big damage onto txj
14667s though with that pull sword txj trying
14670s to come in here te will be popping that
14672s Bane's breath trying to utilize it to
14675s buy some space before the team here KLA
14677s will find one of their members actually
14679s getting caught out in this brainsboro
14680s cxz will be eliminated here to the pull
14684s sword in the lockdown inside the Baines
14685s breath t e able to find what they want
14688s to do with the purchase of that Bane's
14690s breath KLA though uh actually finding a
14693s little bit of value with that long sword
14695s they're not able to find the elimination
14696s they were hoping for GGG going to be
14698s forced out of that as the Bane's breath
14700s comes down and te will find their first
14702s three eliminations of the game off the
14705s back of the strength of the Bane's
14706s breath tea actually doing a very good
14709s job of positioning before that fight
14711s Begins the exchange is about to drop out
14712s of Mongol but he still looks for that
14714s engagement to tease onto the members of
14716s KLA and they actually fall for Kirkland
14718s and sinker one of the players of Kelly
14720s goes for the feet attack on the Monk and
14722s that's when we see vvv come through with
14725s the Justina ultimate to catch on to the
14727s player knowing that they're going to be
14728s able to connect that phrase knowing that
14730s they're going to be able to cover for
14732s their monkas lyd who'd hung a little bit
14734s further back before the engagement began
14736s Pops that Bane's wrath allows them to be
14738s able to have a lot more control of the
14740s space in KLA because they've already
14741s gone for that melee fight against
14742s amongst feet are too far in to be able
14745s to cleanly disengage when the Bender
14746s falls through jdg now going to be trying
14749s to survive kurumi ultimate comes from
14751s Kopi but they might have to cope just
14754s with a fight loss as LSR is down the
14757s kurumi already broken out of the armor
14760s the pause that comes through from
14761s xiaohui just trying to Zone these
14763s players away so they can hold themselves
14765s in their current ultimate for as long as
14766s possible Jack would be trying to use the
14768s door frame to line outside the vipestone
14770s but ping Tower is able to dock him down
14773s will be able to just Chase his footsteps
14776s and be able to find that stunning
14778s connection as JL and t e are going
14781s toe-to-toe in the zone itself lyd
14784s baiting that power to come through a s
14787s not gonna get that Focus however as he's
14790s immediately going to crouch cancel it
14791s and now they go for that immediate
14793s re-engage witch and TP out to turn back
14796s in with the Yoda ultimate coming from AF
14798s but he uses it too early Tes txj goes
14801s for the monkful knowing that the viperal
14803s or whatever the Witch and TP has been
14805s committed they have to stay in this
14807s fight now is the Viper ultimate comes
14808s through from JL the stun does connect
14810s onto txj he holds himself in the
14812s ultimate however so even once the sun
14814s has won through he's still going to be
14817s potentially able to find those grabs
14818s onto these players and then we can see
14820s that Justina Rossman now coming through
14821s from vvv but without that healing
14824s without that kurumi without that txj
14826s goes down
14829s VV not able to find the phrase to
14831s connect onto these players uses that
14833s freestyle bomb to get a little bit of a
14835s respite immediately though is going to
14837s get canceled out of it and turned on to
14840s by the players of JL and this is what we
14843s were concerned about our own this
14845s composition it works sometimes if you
14848s can beat some of these teams into
14849s falling but going for the melees going
14852s to put themselves into a position where
14854s one the monk from drops out the Justina
14856s ultimate can push onto those players and
14858s create the same zoning capacity of
14860s something like a UE ultimate but what
14862s happens when you run into the anti-month
14863s comp well just that you get absolutely
14866s decimated without any healing
14868s yeah unfortunately them not having the
14870s healing they're really actually coming
14872s to sort of bite them you know not only
14874s that you know they lose a player early
14876s into that fight and because they don't
14878s have the gurumi to uh tether on to that
14881s player once the other team uses that
14883s wu-chan old to go out they're
14885s unfortunately
14887s having to try to resurrect that Karen
14889s from Full basically that Karen almost
14892s goes completely depleted and they're not
14894s even able to find the resurrection in
14896s time before that team that uses the Wu
14899s channel to disengage completely comes
14901s back in and re-engages onto them so
14903s they're forced to continue to take that
14904s fight uh basically at a loss right in a
14907s 2v3 scenario whereas if you have a
14910s kurumi to tether through the kurumi can
14913s continue to try to keep that Karen up
14915s and even if you hadn't gotten the
14917s resurrection prior to the Wu Chen old uh
14919s going out the Karen would have been so
14921s close to Resurrection that when two
14923s people come in uh to tap the body
14925s afterwards it would have been quite the
14927s easy Resurrection for the members of
14929s Team te turning now to GG hunting down
14932s some of these stray members from jdg
14934s where to see the F come through here
14936s from miskia to silence out LSR trying to
14939s keep LSR from popping that ultimate solo
14942s uh miskey gonna be forced to back off
14944s though as the pole sword comes through
14945s and connects on to miskiomisky though
14948s going to use that pillar to launch LSR
14951s back LSR wanting to keep the assault
14953s coming through though uh trying to
14955s pressure on damiscus going to go ahead
14957s and pop into the mech now that some
14959s safety coming through from the remaining
14961s members of jdg that tether from Kopi
14964s starting to pressure uh miskia away from
14968s this fight healing LSR LSR looking for
14971s an opportunity to get some of those
14972s Shield pots back up misky is still
14975s completely separated from the other
14977s members of Team GG here as jdg is able
14980s to find most of the reset that they're
14983s looking for turning now back to JL who
14985s was able to eliminate the members of
14987s team EE and looking to find another
14990s fight to come out on top of and it's oug
14993s who's going to suffer the effects of JL
14995s here on this anti-monk comp doing
14997s exactly what the anti-month combat does
15000s best oug jinyu trying to create some
15003s distance here trying to get away while
15005s they have the Eurasian obligational
15007s going to timeout and JL will pick up
15009s another three eliminations and JL goes
15013s to 14 eliminations before zone three
15015s yeah Gigi's still not coming up in the
15018s kill feed but neither or jdd so it feels
15020s like they've sort of run into just a
15021s spell mate with both of their teams
15023s losing one player on this is it is going
15026s to be by without taking a lot of damage
15028s from OC but obviously also in a raw spot
15030s of their own going to have to pop that
15032s witch ntp and book it as we see the rib
15035s of trump come through from jdg so they
15037s can try and buy that secondary member
15040s that third member back as they're going
15042s to use it immediately as badart going to
15044s be hunting down these members of OC that
15046s was what we were talking about right
15047s then Wu Chen TP the visibility has been
15050s such a detriment for these teams who use
15052s that which ntp as a means of escape and
15055s you can actually even see obviously they
15056s understand when they throw that reaching
15058s TP in because it's so visible now they
15060s can get one pot off and then they have
15062s to just immediately grapple if they're
15063s not even back to full and by there on
15065s the other hand they are they've been
15067s able to split one of the members of OC
15070s away from their team Iron Man
15071s unfortunately losing Annalee around the
15074s cliffs still gonna be able to isolate
15076s them from their team as we see that
15078s dragons might be doing so much extra
15081s damage on connection has anally takes oh
15084s so much damage the Witch and TP from
15086s biodar to try and get away from the
15088s Viper stun but unfortunately man still
15091s gets connected onto as a Lucy might be
15094s able to turn around man goes down at the
15096s same time as metian takes down zeming
15097s and this might just be them coming out
15100s on top but ewg other ones laughing at
15103s the moment they come in for such a
15105s successful third party they look for the
15107s lockdown they're able to find the kill
15109s onto Slayer and they're also going to be
15111s able to pick up a number member of
15113s Baroda at the same time the wuchen TP
15117s and the Viper ultimate just made the
15118s fight too visible it'd been gone on for
15121s too long but I will be able with the
15123s intrusion from ewg to make it out with
15126s one player remaining lion the problem is
15129s they weren't the ones holding the money
15131s they have
15132s 1460 coins that is not gonna be enough
15136s for a rebirth charm as a result they're
15138s gonna have to try and sneak their way
15139s onto one of these boxes
15141s yeah speaking of rebirth terms I can't
15143s believe that team te here after losing
15146s two of their members completely able to
15148s buy not one but two rebirth charms and
15152s we're gonna see all three members of
15153s Team te coming back in strong here this
15156s could be huge for team te the problem is
15158s now they're gonna have to find some gear
15161s as they are extremely far behind and we
15164s do see these first Realms of Yang
15165s starting to come through and they are
15167s not going to be able to participate here
15170s uh on this particular comp because they
15173s do not have the gear to go in and try to
15175s take these fights te also now finding
15178s themselves in quite the rocky situation
15180s both KZ and AOW blocking them from being
15183s able to push in from the Zone here
15186s and they need to find some gear for
15189s themselves but with all of the teams
15191s that are here uh in his side plumed
15194s Castle the odds of there being any gear
15197s left for the members of Team te to uh
15199s sort of scavenge here very very low
15202s Moxie I mean not just that as well but
15204s there's a lot of bells right there's a
15206s bell towards the middle Courtyard of
15208s plumed and then there's like one two
15210s three around the actual structure itself
15215s too so you can be found out very very
15218s quickly by all of these teams in the
15220s area it is going to be incredibly risky
15222s and like you said a lot of teams when
15223s they actually just drop off of the the
15226s rip they like to push up into plume
15228s Castle first and then down into
15229s salvation Podium when they're equipped
15231s to be able to survive the fight that
15233s goes over for that Podium for that
15236s puzzle for potentially the red armor
15238s that these compositions to be able to
15240s equip them monks with as we can see it
15242s looks like it's going to be a weather
15244s effect coming through I believe that's
15245s ghostly missed going to be hovering over
15248s one of those Morris blessings as that's
15251s going to make it a little bit harder for
15252s some of these themes who rely on those
15254s skills to be able to play around with
15255s especially if the monk comps have been
15258s drawn to that significant area if they
15259s get hit by those hands and they get
15261s signs down oh they're not going to be
15263s able to find the grabs they're not going
15264s to be able to find the slams and a lot
15265s of those Yodas are going to be very very
15267s happy given the fact that they're going
15269s to be able to play up some verticality
15270s they're going to be able to use the
15272s affability as well as it is going to be
15274s a gate of Yang spawning on up AUD
15276s immediately sliding their way into it a
15278s long slide jdg to come through hopefully
15282s we're not going to see te try and answer
15284s one of these they're going to use that
15285s damn time to look for Luke to be able to
15287s restore that armor and weapons that
15290s they'd lost off of the Soul altar as
15291s jdg's LSR immediately going for the
15293s transformation or Eugene's the king also
15296s going to go for an all he has a little
15297s bit of an advantage given the fact that
15298s he's got a legendary weapon as opposed
15301s to lsr's purple and he does immediately
15302s find a grab to come through tell me
15305s ultimate gets dropped Ella looking to
15307s find the slam is going to be pushed back
15309s the kurumi ultimate now coming through
15311s to try and keep him topped up but he
15312s actually has to exit it to try to push
15315s on to ouija's the king who'd been able
15317s to find Kopi the grab comes through he's
15321s Force out of the kurumi healing and this
15324s is just ug now dealing with the lone
15327s member of Zhao Hui absolutely gorgeous
15330s gate fight coming through from oud
15332s denying the monk the ability to sit in
15335s that karumi ultimate forcing him to
15337s chase after the king so he's not able to
15339s find that slam onto Kopi still able to
15341s find the slam onto the kurumi as well
15343s and as a result they just don't find any
15345s traction
15346s yeah really really unfortunate turn of
15349s events there and you know sometimes
15351s that's just how those fights break out
15353s you get separated uh in that particular
15355s way and the monk can't buy you that
15358s level of protection because he's forced
15360s to take the fight in the premium because
15362s your teammate uh presses in the opposite
15364s direction away from the ultimate it's
15366s just you know a darned if you do darn if
15368s you don't sort of situation you either
15370s have to press out of the kurumi ultimate
15372s and give up the healing to try to do
15374s something for your teammate or just
15376s sacrifice your teammate and in that
15378s given situation you know it's really
15382s hard to make the right call and
15384s unfortunately it just doesn't come out
15385s the way that they were hoping it was
15387s going to come out for them ewg though
15390s here uh giving Chase two team wolves
15392s team wolves in a situation we're very
15395s used to seeing team wolves behind in
15397s gear uh heading into the mid game and
15400s late game here and of course we're going
15402s to see that Viper stun come out
15403s absolutely massive for ewg but they're
15406s gonna be forced to break Focus away from
15409s the members of Team wolves as another
15411s team starts to pressure deep into this
15413s Ravine it's going to get 14. the
15415s opportunity to get a grab and the
15417s re-grab now with the double grab coming
15419s through will he be able to find any more
15422s value out of it unfortunately he doesn't
15423s look like he's going to be able to as we
15425s see the wuchen olds come through benchu
15428s trying to get the resurrection onto
15429s sorrow will find it
15431s wbg and ewg both pressuring Wolves at
15435s the exact same time and wolves just not
15438s able to escape from it we're going to
15441s see sorrow getting picked up by uh wbg
15444s Sleepwalker here Sleepwalker trying to
15446s get his hands on to benju and 14 as they
15449s both feel forced to come back in and try
15451s to make something happen here but benchu
15453s going to get grabbed up going to take
15455s multiple shots from that long sword here
15458s and wolves just falling apart as ewg
15462s comes back in for the third party on to
15465s wbg a single member of wolves will live
15468s to fight another day but that single
15470s member the most vulnerable of all of the
15473s members of Team wolves is ewg continues
15476s their pressure onto the members of wbg
15479s they also have that crucial 25 damage
15482s reduction coming through from the Mystic
15485s might turning now to jdg the team who we
15488s just watched uh uh suffer those
15491s unfortunate circumstances inside the
15493s realm of Yang and they are going to find
15494s themselves suffering yet again as AOW
15497s continues to come out on top of this
15500s fight and that is going to be it for the
15501s members of jdg yeah being one of the
15504s members that goes fine first but AOW
15507s I've been drawn together to potentially
15509s fight the members of ewg KLA in the
15513s distance looking for an engagement onto
15515s AOW at the same time CXC gonna be pushed
15518s off of that ballista control so that
15520s it's now going to be occupied by AOW
15522s trying to put a little bit more pressure
15524s onto some of these teams also buy
15526s themselves a little bit of dying time to
15528s be able to build back into those
15530s ultimates as we can see a Tamil comes
15532s out in the distance wbg and ewg have
15535s found each other wbg dropping that semi
15537s ultimate trying to buy themselves a
15539s little bit of spaces too tick now go to
15541s Ariel trying to chase after wg's PVP who
15544s unfortunately is going to be one of the
15546s remaining members of this Trio who's
15550s looking to just hold himself on the
15551s cliff hoping that they're going to go
15552s past him and nope see Rick checks a
15555s little alcove will be able to find the
15558s kill and that is unfortunately going to
15560s be wbg just reduced down to jinx the
15564s good news is PP may have been spotted
15565s out but he was very very much a
15567s distraction by playing in with Jing
15570s still being alive that's still gonna
15572s have that UE that's still going to be
15573s able to build back into that ultimate to
15575s be able to use things like the jumps to
15577s keep themselves a little bit further out
15579s of Rachel's Jing is able to survive the
15583s team that was pushing after him goes
15585s into the zone to the store will be able
15588s to pick up a group of charm potentially
15590s to find a soul Altar and get his
15592s teammate back the problem is it's not
15593s the million birds so they are going to
15595s have to find their loot a new as KLA
15597s look to just police some of the teams if
15600s they're struggling out towards the outer
15602s edges of that zone if they're going to
15604s have lost some of the Gate of gang
15605s fights and looking for the soul Alters
15606s this is one they're probably gonna make
15608s their moves there's Morris blessing
15609s spawns up GG immediately going to be
15612s pushing for that spaces JL start to
15615s drift towards the area look like they
15618s just want to have a little bit more of a
15619s scout eye to see whether or not they are
15621s going to be fully contested ewg
15623s absolutely no illusions of uh trying to
15627s push onto that one though they sniff
15629s towards it see okay there's a team
15630s already here we're just gonna back out
15632s we're not gonna put ourselves into that
15634s potential position of being caught in
15636s the middle between other teams who start
15638s to drift drawn by the bait of that
15640s Morris blessing towards the area as wbg
15644s Sleepwalker oh oh no teasel they're
15647s doubling back they know that there's a
15648s player in the zone and the hunt begins
15651s Sleepwalker just using that Katana with
15653s the horizontal to carry his momentum off
15655s with the grapples and give himself more
15656s distance but out of The Frying Pan Into
15658s the Fire o u g are in the area and they
15663s might have seen Sleepwalker too he goes
15666s into the purple Bush now he has such a
15669s horrible decision to make I think oh you
15671s do like they know that there's a player
15672s around they're gonna know that there's a
15674s team around because T here potentially
15675s gonna run straight into them and that
15678s Crossfire might actually catch the king
15680s out in that purple Bush if a single hit
15684s connects onto him in that position
15686s they're going to know that he is that
15688s and he is just going to be chased after
15691s relentlessly as both of those full teams
15694s look for an easy picking
15696s yeah it's gonna be a tough position for
15699s them unfortunately wolves 14 that last
15701s solo player being caught out by the
15703s members of AOW here and that's going to
15705s be it for team wolves here in game
15707s number five JL looking to continue to
15710s dominate this game 14 eliminations under
15712s their belt ever since the beginning of
15714s zone two here looking to pressure ewg we
15718s are down to 27 players left remaining in
15720s zone four gets ready to collapse onto
15722s zone five in the next 10 seconds JL also
15726s able to get their hands on a Morse
15728s blessing here picking up that first set
15731s of legendary armor as they continue to
15734s create space for themselves here this
15736s could be the game that jl's been looking
15738s for JL came into the beginning this
15740s season looking very very strong and ever
15742s since the first bi-weekly I've sort of
15744s struggled and today has been no
15746s different for them so for them to be
15748s able to find a 14 eliminations and
15750s continue to keep the pressure going here
15753s in game at number five they've got to be
15756s abs absolutely ecstatic with their
15759s performance here as now they continue to
15761s pressure on a two Alliance here looking
15764s to trade these cannon shots Fang here
15766s with that uh meteor for the cannon
15769s trying to create some of those sort of
15771s sniping shots across the map there on to
15773s the cannon is on on the other hand uh
15776s forced to try to throw those range shots
15779s with The Arc and uh not able to find the
15782s shots that he's looking for gonna come
15784s into the Zone here to do just a little
15786s bit of shopping uh trying to find some
15788s soul Jades and some much needed pots for
15790s themselves wbg's Jing going to be got
15793s out by the members of KLA and
15796s unfortunately that's gonna be it for wbg
15798s also OC's Annalee gonna be picked off by
15801s oug's SS and that's gonna be it for the
15804s members of OC as well Moxie yeah
15807s unfortunate for both those teams they
15810s are going to be knocked out of the lobby
15811s and they're not going to be able to
15812s potentially post any more kills on the
15815s board as ew G see KLA who run a little
15818s bit more of an aggressive position
15820s chasing after those kills have been able
15822s to make it towards those Cliffs so to be
15824s able to navigate away from some of those
15826s cannon shots looking to rip that armor
15829s off te still by the way on Blues
15832s immediately investing the Tammy ultimate
15834s to play claim to this Morris blessing
15837s absolute no-brainer that they have to
15839s make a move for that one since it has
15841s immediately Allied themselves to upgrade
15843s from Blue to Legendary it's the best
15845s magic trick in the rocket that you can
15846s pull off other than maybe gray to
15848s Legendary they're going to be very happy
15849s that txt is going to have that safety
15851s cushion to fall back onto as Gigi's free
15854s free oh absolutely accosted by repeating
15857s crossbow bolts already gonna have Ben
15859s and tick propping on him as well has to
15862s drop out of the monk form into the temi
15865s ultimate covered by Alex and miskier
15867s even throwing in the mech for free free
15869s oh to be able to retreat into that's the
15872s only way they were able to keep the monk
15873s up and it might have come at the cost of
15876s LA like some they lose their tummy
15878s they're going to have to just keep free
15880s free oh out of Arms Reach until that
15883s reach is built up enough for the cannon
15885s shots to come through from the neck
15886s we'll be able to land two connections
15888s doesn't however manage to pick up a kill
15890s but with the boosters charged up through
15892s Frio can at least try and relocate and
15894s take themselves aerial as miskier left
15897s alone by their monk player is
15899s unfortunately fed to the wolves on the
15902s low ground ewg are able to come in with
15905s that kill galui does go extremely low
15907s because of it as we are going to see the
15910s Viper still not being able to find
15912s moment to be able to fully heal as it is
15915s going to be oud chasing after them but
15917s they lose
15919s jails want us in you in the process
15921s jails one thing hunts them down as the
15923s Viper ultimate that connects on the
15925s members of oud who are caught up on that
15927s Cliffside stunning them into taking so
15929s much zone 6 damage with the follow
15931s through coming out from the members of
15933s JL so that the flamer can just chunk
15936s through the health that fire stick's
15938s doing so much damage to the players
15941s caught below as te now decide to make
15943s their move Justina ultimate trying to
15944s freeze up these players on the low
15945s ground so they take that zone tick for
15947s even more damage as JL want to keep
15950s themselves on the slow ground the zone
15951s at least has stopped they have this
15953s little pocket of safety to be able to
15955s heal up from the Zone deck it's not safe
15957s from cannon shots from the players on
15959s The High Ground however is free free oh
15961s out of Mech out of Monk is going to be
15964s caught by T E's txj who did put
15966s themselves into a potentially dangerous
15968s position by painting that Target on
15970s their back to secure that kill but the
15972s grams to come through isolate the other
15974s teams out from around them and it's only
15976s rain shots that come down aside from
15979s another Monk on the other side of the
15981s map t-e's txa is able to return with a
15984s grab onto kla's qgg from seemingly
15987s nowhere him from out of actual
15990s space and as a result now he looks to
15992s try to push back onto the members of
15994s kaylea but it's not gonna be in time l
15996s ID goes down to the pull sword follow-up
15998s from CXC and te are just going to have
16001s to let it go they don't have the kurumi
16003s they don't have the tether to be able to
16005s pull that Resurrection off safely in vvv
16007s now has to hope that he doesn't get
16009s grabbed out by alliances Lynn until he's
16012s able to make it to where that bodies
16013s gone no way does he stick this revive
16015s his iron foreign
16022s oh my goodness the revive comes through
16025s JL here actually gonna pick up a member
16027s of Team te as well with the flamer
16029s coming through txj trying to go Airborne
16031s keeping the game alive for Te if at all
16034s possible because we see jlsas look to
16037s come top side with that flame breath yet
16039s again trying to pump out damage wherever
16042s they can find it JL all the way to 19
16045s eliminations here finally finding the
16048s success they've been looking for All
16051s Season 10 JL continue to keep the
16054s eliminations coming as they come in
16055s looking to lock down this elimination on
16058s to bound on but it's gonna be alliances
16059s lucky who finds that elimination on the
16062s lion TT as trying to find a little bit
16065s of a reset in the other members uh from
16067s their team here trying to buy them that
16069s sort of space ug is the king going very
16071s very low put into the corner and it's
16073s going to be JL who's able to find that
16074s elimination and go to 21 eliminations
16077s but you can be sure they're not done yet
16079s they are thirsty for some more
16081s elimination is gonna find it the double
16083s Perry all for these members of Alliance
16085s on gonna take a ton of damage coming
16087s through as we see the Wu Chen holds come
16089s through to buy JL just a little bit of
16090s space unfortunately the temi old uh
16093s gonna catch out jails a s but able to
16096s avoid going down to the ground and oh my
16098s God look at this as just pumping out the
16100s damage here on to Alliance with that
16103s flame breath from above Lynn taking a
16105s ton of damage we're gonna see the Viper
16106s old coming through from jails One Bank
16109s looking to lock down alliance's Lin Lin
16111s will get locked down getting forced to
16113s de-monk to buy themselves a little bit
16115s of space here jails in you going
16117s extremely low alliance's lucky able to
16119s pick up tees vvv and that's gonna be it
16122s for Te is JL continues to look for space
16126s to lock down as many eliminations as
16128s they can and that placement points for
16130s their team as they have 21 eliminations
16131s they're down to just their Yodo you may
16134s Alliance at AOW fighting for dominance
16137s in the final Circle Zhang Wukong able to
16139s pressure in onto lucky not able to find
16141s the Yoda you made slashes they're
16143s looking for Wukong gonna try to change
16145s targets but not able to find the
16147s connection onto anybody we're gonna see
16149s as still looking to pump out some damage
16152s here with that flame or just trying to
16155s find the space to look for a reset any
16158s damage that they can any potential kills
16160s that they can using that flamer to
16161s create as much face as possible here
16163s going to find a Perry as well go into
16166s the building onto the body to find that
16169s Soul Bloom but it's not going to be
16170s enough as JL will finally go down to the
16173s members of AOW looking to clean up this
16176s final member from Team alignments on
16178s going to be able to find that uh Channel
16181s looking to find anything that they can
16183s they're going to come back in onto it
16186s that Alliance is on going to be able to
16187s find two more eliminations for team
16191s Alliance but it's all going to come up
16193s team JL 21 eliminations a third place
16196s finish this is going to be a massive MVP
16198s for the members of tjl
16201s over here are actually the ones that
16203s take it because auw come in uh and take
16206s 20 kills if my mouse is correct either
16208s 19 or 20 kills picked up from this team
16211s and unfortunately for JL they do not
16214s survive long enough to be able to come
16217s out with the MVP even though like you
16220s said it feels like on paper it's already
16222s written right when we cut over to them
16225s and they're coming with so many kills
16226s towards that final Zone before it even
16228s collapses properly through and they just
16230s have that that control over the space
16232s they've got that little building to be
16234s able to buy themselves a little bit of
16235s safety the fact that even though they've
16237s lost two members they've still got the
16238s Yodo up and running with that flamer
16240s with the ability to drop the aquarium by
16242s themselves that little bit of downtime
16245s that little bit of breathing rooms to be
16247s able to try and backtrack towards some
16248s of those bodies pick up some of those
16250s Soul blooms look for the resets the way
16251s that we saw them try to play in that
16253s last engagement but unfortunately it is
16255s not enough enough kills come through for
16257s AOW and they're able to poach it from
16261s right in leave the noses of jail and
16263s that has got to feel
16264s so
16266s so so bad as we can cut over and have a
16269s look at the reactions because like you
16271s said there was right there this was one
16273s of their best games this was showing us
16275s what JL is capable of this is a team
16278s that we had so much expectations for
16280s coming through from their performance
16281s onwards where they almost almost pushed
16284s ATM out of being able to claim that
16286s title JL were almost able to steal it
16288s away from the team but it was not to be
16291s and once again unfortunately for jail
16293s that mvp is not to be AOW they knock so
16298s many members of the team away it's JL
16301s who actually are able to go down against
16303s aow's pink Tower who's just running
16305s around with the dual blades pushing onto
16307s the members punishing when uh jail
16309s looked to try and create those openings
16310s use those ultimates look for even more
16312s kills to be able to keep themselves over
16314s those teams even if they're not the last
16317s team standing it punishes that
16319s aggression the dual blades come through
16320s and whether it's Cavalry Bloom whoever
16322s it's pedal for flurry it is just
16324s constantly pressuring those members of
16327s jail from being able to group up and
16328s play the comp the way you want to
16330s yeah very very unfortunate you know you
16333s get so locked into like you're watching
16336s JL try to just continue to keep it alive
16339s there with the yonohime and you don't
16341s realize that AOW you know they were
16343s going head-to-head uh with the members
16346s of another team there and it was just
16347s kind of just constant back and forth
16349s between them and Alliance and you're
16351s like oh yeah they're picking up a couple
16352s of eliminations here but man do they
16355s really creep up fast they come into that
16356s circle with nine eliminations and walk
16358s away with so many eliminations that they
16361s find themselves coming out over top of
16363s that dominating lead that JL was able to
16366s establish for themselves and jail not
16368s really lacking in the final Circle
16370s either they came in with 14 eliminations
16372s and were able to climb all the way to 21
16375s but unfortunately finding themselves
16377s down to a final member in the end they
16379s just can't clean up the way they want to
16381s and it's AOW who just barely edges them
16385s out there with 20 eliminations in a
16386s first place finish that multiplier
16388s putting in work as well as the extra 2.5
16392s ranking points they walk away with a
16394s game score of 37 JL unfortunately not
16398s quite getting it there as they walk away
16401s with a game score of 34 which they still
16403s can't be disappointed in oug with eight
16406s eliminations we'll be walking away with
16407s a 12.2 and Against All Odds te goes out
16410s with four eliminations they're down to a
16412s single member and I'm not quite sure how
16414s vvv is just able to buy back the rest of
16418s the team here and then get them into
16420s late game where they're able to find a
16421s couple of eliminations and go out in
16424s like fourth or fifth place here a huge
16427s comeback for team te in the end I mean I
16430s I have to talk about it I have to
16432s acknowledge it t e I surely said okay
16436s I'm gonna do a dumb
16444s it's not in a room it is out in the open
16448s and literally if you 180 you were like
16451s nose to nose
16452s with alliances button
16455s who is mid monk ultimate and they they
16458s pull the Revival they pull the revive
16460s off and I I mean I kind of question it
16463s because lyd immediately goes down again
16467s because even though you pull the revive
16468s off you're not you're not kurumi right
16470s even when kurumi gets the revive with
16473s the Teva a lot of the time you run out
16475s of that tablet you don't have the
16476s ability to be able to top their heels
16478s off with it once the revives come
16480s through and your health is an absolute
16482s that works when you've used things
16484s like a witch and TP or when there were
16486s so many players around you that everyone
16488s is just focusing on other fights the
16491s problem is lyd gets revived he has like
16493s 10 of his health and he is out in the
16497s open and it's hunting season and every
16499s single player is looking for those ones
16501s looking for the weaknesses and then very
16503s shortly afterwards he actually actually
16505s goes down off screen as well because
16507s he's in that prior forward position to
16509s pull that revive off and we talked about
16512s it we said the te running without that
16514s kurumi without that traditional healer
16515s for that monk would unfortunately cost
16518s them and it cost them just maybe not in
16520s the way that we're expecting they don't
16522s lose txj when he's made monk Dave Blues
16525s off of having to go that deep to pull
16526s the revive off by face
16529s well they get they get very very lucky
16531s let's be honest I first of all I want to
16533s acknowledge pink down here the MVP here
16534s for AOW absolutely massive game for them
16536s we see the armor Pierce coming through
16539s yet again this musket starting to be
16542s heavily favored here uh in the trio is
16544s that Calvary Bloom also putting in
16546s massive amounts of work here uh for our
16549s boy Ping Tao but back to talking about
16551s team te and I you know I don't I
16555s hesitate to use the word luck when we
16557s talk about you know how skilled these
16560s players are and things but a lot of
16562s things falling in team te's favor so
16566s that even though this is a bad game for
16568s team te a lot of that bad was mitigated
16572s you know they go out in mid game down to
16575s a single player and not only do they
16578s lose that fight they lose that fight as
16580s Zone one is transitioning into zone two
16583s so that they lose
16586s um two of their players uh to the
16590s ability to resurrect so they go down to
16592s just a single player who had time to
16594s resurrect before the swap into zone two
16598s um when they get there
16601s somehow they luckily have enough dark
16604s tide coins
16605s where they're able to find enough dark
16607s tight coins to get double resurrections
16610s and you're talking about a player that
16611s had to go back to zero dark tide coins
16614s where they were able to go and come
16617s together with enough dark tide coins to
16619s be able to buy double resurrections I
16622s have zero idea the only thing I can
16625s think of is that we we didn't cut to
16627s them opening a stash at some point and
16630s they got very lucky and they were able
16631s to find a dark tide coin stash where it
16634s was nothing but Dark Side coins and off
16637s the back of that they were able to go
16638s buy the double resurrections and again I
16641s hesitate to use the word luck but that
16644s comes down to quite a lot of luck and
16646s things aligning perfectly for them and
16648s then again in the end where they're able
16650s to get that Resurrection out in the open
16653s in the face of alliances Lynn munked up
16656s right there I hate I hesitate to say it
16658s but it really comes down to a lot of
16661s luck for the members of Team te and
16663s while this is still a poor game for team
16666s te a lot of what could have been a very
16669s very bad game for them mitigated by the
16672s amount of luck that they run into I
16674s still don't agree with this Justina
16677s tummy pink pick coming on to this monk
16679s comp it just doesn't really seem to
16682s perform well for any of these teams but
16685s we've got a short video for you guys
16686s before we come back and lock in for game
16688s number six and see if any of these teams
16690s are going to risk their luck with a
16691s Justina pick yet again
16706s thank you
16751s foreign
16786s we're five games deep in our day one of
16789s trios for our fourth and final bi-weekly
16792s of our spring split season a year and uh
16796s what an interesting day it has been
16798s coming out but um no surprises to see
16801s Team te on top uh I think the biggest
16804s question that we really have
16806s when it comes to team te is when they go
16809s into the bi-weekly in that sort of first
16811s place position again will they choke yet
16814s again for the ninth time coming forward
16818s uh and will they continue the same Trend
16821s that we've seen out of Team te uh it's
16824s going to be very interesting to find out
16826s uh but this last game you know
16829s I I we talk about it and I I want to see
16833s some teams adapt I'm all four teams
16835s coming in and going okay we've practiced
16837s this calm you know I was talking with
16839s somebody in twitch chat earlier and you
16841s know this was a comp that team te has
16843s been practicing but I think you need to
16845s sort of address the elephant in the room
16847s being that taking the temi over the
16850s healer is clearly not working out for
16853s any of these teams not a single team has
16855s found any amount of success here yes
16858s they were able to string together six
16860s kills this particular game but I don't
16862s think we could call this a successful
16864s game for team te whatsoever and if it
16867s hadn't been for quite a bit of luck uh
16870s teamte would have been gone almost
16873s immediately at the start of zone two as
16875s they were down to a single player who
16877s was all white armor and just able to
16881s somehow find enough money to buy both of
16883s those resurrections back uh before we
16885s harp on that anymore though uh we have a
16887s quick question for you guys chat and
16889s that was which team has the most kills
16891s in game number five was that a team te B
16893s Team AOW
16894s c-o-u-g or D J L and this is a little
16899s bit of a tricky question uh for those of
16902s you at home
16904s um I'm I I don't want to give away too
16906s much here
16908s um
16911s we'll just say that it's uh not quite
16914s who you would expect to be the easy
16916s answer for this particular one here but
16918s yeah no I I think I would love to see
16920s some adjustments from these teams if
16923s they're gonna keep running this Justina
16925s pick we've seen three teams now run the
16928s Justina pick with the temi to no sort of
16932s advantage for these teams whatsoever and
16933s you know we talk about the temi old
16935s being able to buy you space but again
16937s the combination of the Justina and the
16939s cremio buys you not only the healing
16942s that you need for your monk but also
16944s buys you that same sort of space that
16946s dropping a Tamil old does because the
16948s freeze coming through for that alt means
16951s nobody can step to the feet of your monk
16953s without being frozen out and if you get
16956s frozen out at the freed of a month he's
16958s just gonna turn around and pick you up
16959s and there's nothing you can do about it
16962s so why these teams haven't made that
16964s adjustment yet is a little baffling I
16967s feel like they're afraid to make that
16969s sort of on the Fly adjustment they
16971s practice it with Hemi and they feel like
16974s okay we practiced it with Demi so now
16977s we're sort of forced to run it with femi
16979s even if it's not going to work out the
16981s way we want it to work out I mean
16983s honestly like I'm fine with Justina
16985s intros we saw last year that Justina
16987s pedal with Takeda can work really
16990s effectively
16991s active my biggest question is that like
16993s why aren't we seeing that pivot towards
16996s the composition that they were on last
16998s year has monkeys Fallen to such a high
17001s position in NADA that you just want to
17003s try and jigsaw peace force him into
17006s every single composition possible
17008s because of just how much control he
17010s brings to the table because you don't
17011s want to take a gate of Yang fight
17012s without that monk as an anchor to fall
17015s back onto the second that the gate opens
17017s up and the fight begins you go for the
17019s ultimate you have that control you force
17020s the other team to play around things
17023s like the pillar line of sights that they
17024s don't get grabbed by by the monkey that
17026s just limits so much of the space that
17027s they have to play around with but again
17029s like Justina and Takeda can work really
17032s well with that and if you want to say oh
17033s well maybe it's because they don't want
17035s to throw too many ultimates in because
17037s last time when we saw that uh
17038s composition board for last year it was
17041s prone to being third-partied because you
17043s have to use the Justina freeze ultimate
17044s and the educator ultimate at the same
17046s time so you would get third party you
17048s would get punished to overcoming too
17050s many ultimates and for a fight one I
17051s literally argue that it's a gate of
17054s young even if you win even if you lose
17056s you're gonna get your ultimate refreshed
17058s and it literally prevents any
17060s opportunity the third party which is why
17062s the monk players and compositions slowly
17064s commit all of their ultimates into just
17065s that one final one like I'm final
17067s adjusting the sticking around I just I
17069s want to see different Heroes alongside
17071s her or if they continue to force this
17073s casino monk like you I'm in agreement
17075s Rune I want to see a support hero that
17077s can actually heal as opposed to their
17079s support being utility
17081s you know you say like the monk comps who
17084s go into realm of Yang and spend all
17087s their ultimates because they're going to
17088s get them back and all I can hark back to
17091s is J team during uh our week one who
17095s absolutely refuse to pop their uh tunnel
17097s and continue to find themselves caught
17099s out uh time and time again but we're
17101s gonna take a look here as we lock in for
17103s game number six at these particular team
17105s comps and uh I'm gonna say no surprises
17107s here at the fact that we're not seeing
17109s Justina come through anymore for any of
17112s these teams we but it's the exact cop
17116s that you talked about
17118s very exact conversation
17121s we just sucks thank you Casey for
17126s answering my prayers I I hope that you
17129s do well and that other teams look at
17131s this composition I go oh yeah we run
17134s that last year this this can still work
17136s you know what I'm really interested
17138s about as well is when we originally
17141s started to see Justina come back in
17144s to the comp for trios here it was on the
17147s Viper comp replacing Yodo we saw it
17151s three times we saw it only three times
17154s and of those three times we saw it twice
17158s the comp got MVP why are we not seeing
17161s this comp come back again why are we
17163s seeing them trying to force Justina into
17166s other comps when we saw it two times out
17169s of three be so successful that teams
17172s walked away with MVP Moxie I I don't
17175s know I don't know that's the question
17176s that I'm sure we could maybe pass along
17179s to Italia or Jaeger to ask the players
17181s for us but what we do know is that it's
17183s game number six it's the last game of
17186s the day these players have absolutely
17188s nothing to hold back onto some of these
17190s teams are going to be keeping a close
17192s eye on JL I'm sure are going to be just
17195s a little bit more than peeves that they
17197s got that mvp stolen away from them by
17199s AOW but if they have anything like the
17202s performance they had last game they are
17204s going to be on absolute fire from start
17206s to finish because te not gonna be
17209s running immediately off of the rip into
17211s engagement I like this the adaptation
17212s coming through from te we used to
17214s criticize them for going for the hot
17215s Drop immediately and it seems like
17216s they've milled out that aggression
17218s towards the star does JL have not
17220s mellowed out in the slides they're
17222s immediately going to be taking on bioda
17224s as KZ could potentially come in for that
17227s third party he's going to be grapple
17228s canceled but the peel comes on Peru the
17231s members in close enough in position to
17233s be able to push back onto the players of
17235s jail so no stagger lock coming through
17237s from the team as an opening is okay
17239s stone form just internally clanging off
17242s of the members as te now took a little
17245s bit of downtime look for some of that
17246s loot now coming in with a pull sword
17249s from txj to look for that third party
17251s opportunity ewg gonna be taking down jdg
17254s but unfortunately on our screens it's KZ
17257s who even with the composition that we
17259s wanted to see come through with didn't
17261s have the ultimate free ball didn't land
17263s towards weren't able to find themselves
17265s fireflies so as a result don't have the
17267s sustainability that this composition
17269s hinges upon nor they're just in a
17271s lockdown that it looks to use to deny
17273s that third-party opportunity and as a
17274s result they are going to be dispatched
17276s very quickly two of their members down
17278s Jen looks like they might be able to get
17280s the resurrection as bioda and tea are
17282s still fighting with the Yoda ultimate
17284s coming through from line TT buying that
17286s little bit of space for that revive to
17288s potentially come through hazy actually
17289s has to cancel it out early as Boda see
17293s that it's going on turn their
17294s peripherals to the one lone player and
17297s then push back on to the members of JL
17300s with that Viper ultimate locking them
17302s down there's one thing and as are forced
17305s on the Run
17306s you know I I have to talk about this at
17309s the end of the day you know we talked
17311s about the recognition from some of these
17313s teams to understand why comps work the
17317s way that they work and why they work
17319s well together and that those teams
17322s particularly do very well I want you to
17324s take a look at Team Casey at the very
17326s bottom of the leaderboard yet again
17328s they're trying to bring in this sort of
17331s Justina pick that these other teams are
17334s pioneering but they clearly just don't
17337s understand how to Pilot the comp or why
17341s a comp like this works together so well
17343s why if you're the only Justina in the
17346s lobby are you spawning into sun wing
17348s into a hot Drop where you have no access
17351s to fireflies and you're running two
17354s Ultimate Heavy dependent Heroes like
17358s Justina and Takeda together it makes no
17362s sense 4K Z to drop their team where they
17366s drop them into a hot Drop with no access
17369s to fireflies on a map that has so many
17373s fireflies available for these teams to
17376s come in on KZ it just improving my point
17380s for me that some of these teams that
17382s find themselves at the bottom of the
17383s leaderboard are just trying to copycat
17386s some of the other comps that these teams
17389s are pioneering and don't understand why
17392s those comps work the way that they do
17395s I think like the idea of the Justina is
17398s is just so prevalent
17400s that a lot of these scenes like you said
17402s are just trying to copycat because they
17404s think that it's going to work they think
17406s like okay well we're gonna lock it just
17407s you know we're going to immediately get
17409s that zoning potential but just you know
17411s zoning potential comes off of the
17412s ultimate and like that's why we see
17415s these teams when they have Justina MVPs
17417s they land secret tunnels if it's not
17419s dust they immediately land where they
17420s know that fireflies are going to be so
17422s that they can just get that old mod
17424s online as quickly as possible and even
17426s if there's another team dropping into
17427s secret tunnel to look for that lockdown
17429s as well because of the way that secret
17431s tunnel is actually designed and
17434s developed in the game a lot of the time
17436s you actually throw yourself into a
17438s disadvantage when you're going up
17439s against and Justina who has the ultimate
17440s because there's far less room to be able
17442s to tap Dodge the free strikes they come
17444s through from her right and if one freeze
17446s connects onto you you're as good as done
17448s in that fight so early on that's PE and
17451s bioda are still scrapping it out he gave
17454s them a little bit of time to be able to
17457s try and find some loot wind walls now
17459s coming through from te so that buyer
17461s aren't able to turn this back on to them
17462s txj coming in with that pole sword we
17465s talk about pole sword matter developing
17466s towards the end game but it feels like
17467s TV just use it continuously all the way
17470s through as line TT uses the Yoda
17472s ultimate by from the space for that
17475s which ntp to come through from moon but
17477s unfortunately they're not able to
17479s actually get the revive Moon however
17481s with that Katana able to finish off vvv
17484s after line TT with the vertical charge
17487s click from the long sword connects and
17489s lets the Stagger hit so that the katana
17491s can find the kill and that is actually
17493s going to force te into taking a little
17496s bit of a backstep as the third party
17498s Knight comes through from JL which ntp
17500s from te so they can get their downed
17502s member revived and then surely they're
17505s going to look to turn back into this
17506s engagement bioda has to deal with JL as
17508s quickly as possible or vice versa
17510s otherwise te and just immediately going
17512s to turn back onto them maybe a little
17514s bit more cautious given the fact that
17516s they are going to be running into a
17517s Matari and te no they're still running
17520s vvv on the Viper if the Viper's done
17523s tries to improve from the ultimate the
17524s Matari is just gonna all to cancel it
17526s and then they're in a really rough spot
17530s uh I I sigh heavily as we turned to team
17533s wolves taking an aggressive fight in the
17536s zone against AOW in the middle of a
17540s Bane's breath and this is exactly what
17542s we talked about uh with Team wolves not
17546s learning uh from their aggression and
17548s they continue to suffer from it and
17551s almost as if to prove my point yet again
17553s while that fight going on team KZ the
17557s very first team completely eliminated
17559s from the lobby here in game at number
17561s six Moxie now turning to ewg going head
17565s to head with the members of uh jdg jdg's
17568s Kobe trying to lock down an elimination
17571s here for jdg not quite able to find it
17574s though but able to get away uh from the
17578s massive Viper stun coming through but
17579s Kopi gonna be thrown into the building
17581s here locked down as ewg is able to pick
17584s up an elimination off of one of the
17587s members of jdg ewg trying to use this
17590s building to find some sort of value in
17592s terms of getting a reset here but a
17594s massive alt coming out from the members
17597s of jdg followed with a massive hit from
17600s the pole sword on LSR going to buy them
17603s enough threat that ewg feels the need to
17606s use that Wii channel to get out of Dodge
17609s and while that fight's going on te able
17611s to pick up the members of JL and JL
17615s going to be completely eliminated from
17617s the lobby as well as they follow KZ back
17620s to the scoreboard jdg unfortunately
17623s losing copy as OC's Anna Lee going to be
17627s going for the monk film has to spend a
17629s lot of it navigating touch scenery and
17631s actually cancels it early so still
17634s taking this fight in the zone only
17636s trying to create that little bit of
17637s space to be able to turn on to the lone
17640s member of jdg's LSR will be able to find
17643s the Kill from Slayer with the Polson so
17645s they will be able to get zeming back
17647s with that revive as the gun still in
17650s this song this is potentially
17652s problematic for this team given the fact
17654s that we've seen a lot of teams wait
17657s around the edges of where the Zone
17658s actually ends up collapsing too and
17661s given the fact that and and lay actually
17664s used that monk ultimate in that fight
17667s put very little other than just zoning
17670s purposes they're not going to have it
17673s but when these next teams that they run
17676s into pop up wbg and GG going to be going
17679s toes toe for a gate of young fight they
17681s don't have to have any restraint they
17683s can go straight for these monk forms
17684s hopefully we're gonna see just that
17686s Sleepwalker going for that grapple
17688s trying to just jump through the members
17690s of Duty pressuring them into using that
17692s kurumi ultimate earlier before they can
17694s use it to keep that monk chopped up he's
17696s just holding it he's not using the
17698s ultimate at all and we're actually
17699s seeing him throwing in the kurumi
17701s ultimate to come through now Sleepwalker
17703s uses the ball still doesn't go for the
17706s ultimate and I'm a little bit concerned
17708s about how wbg up approach that fight
17711s room they use the kurumi ultimate before
17713s Sleepwalkers monk halted Gigi just drop
17715s it tell me ultimate and keep him
17717s isolated away because they know that the
17718s kurumi can't help him as the the kurumi
17722s ultimate is invested that's that school
17726s boy hours coming through from wbg I
17728s think they got just a little bit
17729s overconfidence given the fact that they
17730s weren't running into a monk composition
17733s on the other side you know I think wbg
17736s tries to make an adjustment here right
17738s they see that Gigi's not running the
17740s monk comp so they go oh hey we don't
17742s have to blow our monk transformation as
17745s soon as possible so they instead use the
17748s UA Shawn alt uh to try to create the
17751s pressure uh for them to pick up an
17754s elimination but they forget that they're
17756s playing into a z-ping and even if
17758s they're able to separate one of the
17760s members uh of the other team from Team
17762s GG that as soon as they get low that
17765s z-ping all is going to trigger and knock
17767s them all back and that's exactly what we
17770s see happen and then after that the olds
17772s just continue to come out in the wrong
17774s order the monk of old being the last old
17777s to come out is not where you want to be
17778s you really want to have that and the
17781s rational to cover things for the monk if
17784s things go wrong unfortunately the
17787s adjustment the wbg tries to make is the
17789s wrong adjustment you know maybe if they
17791s had been into a Viper comp right you're
17795s trying to get the Viper old to come out
17797s before the monk oh yeah it makes sense
17800s go ahead and use the UE old first to try
17802s to put pressure onto the enemy team but
17805s unfortunately the zeping team is not the
17808s team to make that adjustment on and wbg
17810s learns that the hard way is now they
17812s find themselves engaged with Team KLA
17814s trying to get their hands onto those
17817s precious Soul blooms that they're gonna
17818s need to stay in the game so they can get
17820s rid of this Yang depletion KLA finding
17823s themselves on at the back foot here they
17825s actually are going to be able to
17826s separate ykc out and get themselves one
17829s of those Soul blooms that they are
17831s desperately looking for cxz now caught
17833s out by Sleepwalker as well as they
17836s continue to keep the pressure off onto
17838s KLA wbg does make a mistake in the realm
17842s of Yang but they're able to come back
17844s from it as they are able to find KLA and
17848s find two of those Soul blooms that they
17850s need unfortunately
17851s qgg going to be able to get away from
17854s the group as the rest of the members of
17856s KLA are separated and wbg cannot afford
17860s to let qgg get away because they still
17863s have a member with that Yang depletion
17866s wbg is going to be forced to chase KLA
17869s wherever they might go and qgg is going
17872s deep into the Zone Moxie yeah but wbg
17875s know that he's going to go down
17878s in the next next if he doesn't find
17880s because both of those seems like she
17882s chose the Same Soul so both of them knew
17884s that they were in that same situation so
17886s they can continue to hang someone down
17888s they have been able to pick up two of
17889s those solvents to be able to guarantee
17891s at least two of their players survive
17892s there's Alliance and ewg go Toe to Toe
17895s Parry comes through nanto is going to be
17898s on the ground as the legendary dual
17900s blades just mince through the health
17902s bars of ewg lint still not able to
17906s actually use that ultimate however as
17908s they are fighting in an anti-alt Zone as
17911s Gigi and I looked to come in for that
17913s third party pushing on to the members
17915s Alliance do have a million Birds might
17917s so they can't try and hold themselves in
17918s this fight a little bit longer if they
17921s do so choose ewg not gonna have that
17924s luxury so unfortunately for them they
17926s are going to be potentially losing all
17928s of those players who are down on the
17930s ground as GG Smith is just playing
17931s perimeter towards Celestron making sure
17934s that no one is going to be able to come
17936s back through us we can see how Alliance
17937s were able to win their gate of Yang
17939s fights against KOA Lin and ykc both in
17942s the monk form and taking a little bit of
17944s damage because one actually gets in the
17946s neck and pumps so much additional damage
17950s onto white facing you can see him just
17951s hopping around trying to use that pillar
17954s but it's a little bit too late this one
17955s has already been able to pull the fury
17957s necessary to go into the Cannon Mode and
17959s cannon shots with their AOE damage have
17962s enough range to hit players especially
17964s monk players behind the pillar and still
17967s connect onto their health so
17969s unfortunately for KLA what should have
17970s been that big Advantage what should have
17972s been this one player creating so much
17974s space for them and guaranteeing them
17975s growing to stand onto becomes their
17977s biggest detriment and just a moving
17980s walking Target that they have to
17982s continuously keep on the go really good
17985s decision making and adaptation from
17987s Alliance to be able to see that okay we
17990s can just keep applying this pressure
17991s onto the monk there's no farrier on the
17993s other side we're going to whip that Mech
17995s just do so much damage that they're not
17997s going to be able to put themselves into
17998s a position to find that win condition
18000s and Alliance are able to come out on top
18003s yeah turning now to take a look here at
18006s GG we see wbg able to find uh multiple
18009s Resurrection terms for themselves here
18011s uh which is absolutely huge for the
18013s members of wbg the problem is that uh
18015s they are gonna need to find some loot as
18018s we are heading into zone three and the
18019s second set of uh the Realms of Yang
18022s getting ready to come through and it
18025s looks like many of these teams opting to
18027s just not go for the Realms of Yang as
18029s we've seen that adaptation coming
18031s through that second set of Realm of gang
18033s just so so dangerous for these teams who
18036s do go in yes you do have a little bit of
18038s a safety net coming out of it if you are
18040s the losing team because you get to
18043s resurrect and go look for another fight
18044s the problem being typically when you are
18047s in that desperate situation where you
18049s have to take any fight that comes your
18051s way to get rid of that Yang depletion
18053s the odds of you coming out on top of
18056s that fight with all three of your
18058s members not having you know died even
18061s once very very low the odd that you are
18064s going to lose a member and there's no
18067s way to resurrect them if they die with
18069s Yang depletion they're Karen
18071s automatically completely dissipates and
18074s you cannot go and just res their care
18077s and back up you're forced to find a
18079s resurrection charm somewhere and this
18081s late in the game typically you're not
18083s going to find those coming through
18084s wolves here able to find the grab on the
18086s uh bout of lion TT here but the stun
18089s coming through from the Viper on team
18091s bowed up Gonna Keep 14 from getting any
18093s sort of value out of it whatsoever
18095s Chrissy bowdock continue to keep the
18097s pressure here but sorrow from Team
18099s wolves here able to turn the pressure
18102s back onto team bound on thou not going
18104s to be forced to use that wu-chan old to
18106s get away and wolves going to secure that
18110s very precious Morris blessing that their
18112s team desperately in need of they're
18115s going to find their second set of purple
18117s armor here team wolves with a single
18119s elimination to their name and they don't
18121s even have 10 points put together weather
18123s for the entire day thus far moxie
18128s they're able to escape
18129s because it was the Morris blessing that
18131s those two teams are strapping over so
18133s even the wolves come out on top and
18134s force out that region TV early they're
18137s not going to be haunted after that's
18138s always te gonna be knocked out txt we're
18142s going to have to go for the Panic yodel
18143s ultimate might get stunned out of it buy
18146s a Viper beautiful the teleport to be
18149s able to iframe the stone and as a result
18152s te are able to turn it on to JL txj
18156s using that F1 from the Yodo to lock down
18160s jails one thing and then transitioning
18162s into that pole sword off of the Stagger
18165s and keeping them in the uppercut this is
18168s what we say when we see that F1 come
18170s through from te every single time DHA is
18173s able to isolate the player with that
18175s knock-up it always always results in a
18178s kill really good utility opening coming
18180s through from te to turn that situation
18182s around because they were starting off on
18184s a rough back foot at that one and like
18188s we say like we see ete like they have
18189s have such good micro macro in the free
18192s versus freeze they're so good at being
18194s able to play on the back foot then it's
18196s just the macro of playing on the back
18197s foot as a whole where they seem to
18199s suffer a little bit as wolves going to
18202s be trying to keep a lockdown on kla's
18205s movements they've isolated CXC all the
18208s way towards that massive Zone tick
18211s damage that they're going to be taking
18213s as that zone just continues to put even
18216s more dense in cxe's health there's a
18219s bounty on the kurumi's head as well
18222s they're just trying to make it to the
18224s salt and buy one of their players back
18226s and they will be able to do just that
18228s but it is not going to be safe to walk
18231s out of that zone qgg is going to have to
18233s Loop for scraps of the area wolves going
18236s to be keeping an eye as well to see
18238s where exactly those two players pop out
18240s from and what they might have done just
18243s now is just add another kill to the
18246s table that wolves could eventually stop
18248s from as they're going to have that
18249s Mystic might they're going to have those
18251s constant things in players locations but
18253s oug are of the exact same mind cxe
18256s taking so much damage has to use the
18259s Umbrella Just to teleport forward will
18261s go down on the edges of the Zone qgt
18263s trying to get the pull off in time will
18265s be able to keep herself topped up
18267s somewhat and look for that revive onto
18270s his kurumi but the second they walk out
18272s into any position they're going to
18275s immediately be spotted out by all of
18277s these teams in the area the fact that
18278s the Empire has already been exhausted if
18280s they want to watch shipwreck they are
18282s signing their death warrant so many
18284s teams are in this area waiting to see
18286s when those two players walk out from
18288s Zone I mean look at this point I'd have
18291s to say that kla's death warrants already
18292s been signed it's just a matter of when
18295s it gets filed Moxie has this team
18298s drastically far behind in loot where the
18301s stage in the game where there's
18302s basically just scraps uh left available
18305s on the map and they're down a player
18307s it's really not a situation you want to
18309s find yourself in if you're KOA at this
18311s point you're you're trying to just make
18314s the most of a bad situation you're
18316s trying to survive for as long as
18317s possible you have three maybe four
18320s eliminations under your about and you
18322s know the longer that you last the more
18324s points that you get KLA hasn't had the
18326s best day for themselves but they know
18328s they get to play another day uh going
18331s forward so every single point that they
18333s can scrap together in this last match is
18336s going to make the world of difference
18338s when it comes to qualifying for the
18340s bi-weekly final and KLA has yet to not
18343s qualify for one so they desperately want
18346s to make sure that they are able to do
18348s just about and unfortunately the reaper
18352s waiting around the corner for that death
18355s warrant to get filed because te
18358s sitting top side just above KLA and as
18362s if uh you know it wasn't enough that the
18365s reapers are waiting nearby we're getting
18366s a little bit of that Silent Hill fog
18368s rolling in as well here in shipwreck uh
18372s just being ominous for the members of
18374s KLA but KOA CXC actually finding a
18377s rebirth charm uh here there's still one
18380s left this late in the game quite
18382s impressive uh for us to see a rebirth
18386s turn still available in the game here
18387s KLA Against All Odds is going to find
18389s both of their members uh resurrected
18391s here on this altar OC doesn't see them
18395s down below it looks like uh as they are
18398s trying to pressure up and get a
18400s resurrection but oug going to be keeping
18402s them from getting to that Soul Altar for
18405s the resurrection so the members of KLA
18407s here looking to find that other Soul
18409s altar in the very middle of the town and
18412s shipwreck and that's where highlighting
18413s right now but unfortunately again
18416s they're gonna be drastically behind in
18419s terms of Gear 30 players left remaining
18421s alive here Zone 3 completely collapses
18423s on to zone four we're gonna get a peek
18426s at where zone 5 is going to collapse and
18428s this is going to be a very interesting
18429s final Circle as we're going to close
18431s tight down on all the Huts in the very
18434s middle of shipwreck Moxie yeah t already
18437s got their hands on merciles Havoc for
18439s that staff but now they want to get
18441s their hands on this Osmos blessing wind
18443s tools going to be dropped to the GG
18444s coming to apply that little bit of Crash
18447s of vvv trying to stick the opening txj
18449s chiming into hell but they're taking a
18450s lot of range damage because now we're
18452s going to see that sword come through
18453s from the Yodo to provide a little bit of
18455s additional cover and vvv has been able
18458s to open it legendary armor going to be
18460s available for that Viper as well as a
18463s legendary long sword seems like going to
18465s be that for Leo on that Wu Chen just to
18469s be able to play off of the space created
18471s by that Yoda when the ultimate comes
18473s through when you get hit by the yodel
18474s ultimate you do get started and that
18476s could potentially open you up for those
18478s long sword charge clicks to come through
18480s more importantly for the Witch and you
18482s can do it from range as well so you're
18483s not putting yourself into too aggressive
18485s position where once the Stagger wears
18487s out you can potentially go down before
18489s you can TP your team out of safety
18490s really good
18492s funneling coming for from te as K like
18496s have been able to get that third player
18498s in because they went to that different
18499s soul altar now however we can see the
18503s next problem that arises for them
18504s they've got blue armor there's one
18507s purple weapon for the team that of
18509s course is going to be funneled towards
18510s oh no not towards the month player as
18514s they run straight towards te and now
18517s comes the Han vvv with that legendary
18521s armor and long sword going to be an
18523s absolute monster if you run into them
18526s the good news is that you don't actually
18527s look for the engagement I don't know
18529s whether they saw Kayla or whether the
18530s fog was able to obscure the player's
18533s outline so they didn't actually see that
18535s there was a team that close them because
18537s if they did and they saw that loot
18538s disparity they absolutely haunt that to
18541s the ends of the Earth as wolves set
18543s themselves up on this High Ground
18545s they're still running this traditional
18547s Transformer composition to come through
18549s so 14 is going to feel pretty happy with
18551s pencils they can afford to take a little
18553s bit more of a primed position towards
18555s the central belt of that zone since they
18557s have the kurumi to be able to fall back
18558s onto when the monk goes for the ultimate
18560s the problem is that not the only monk
18562s composition so you have to make sure
18564s that you stag your ultimate type
18565s perfectly otherwise you're potentially
18568s going to just be creating openings for
18570s other teams around you especially these
18572s yodocoms they're going to be looking to
18575s just move in for the kill the second
18577s they see these mon comes already
18579s investing that monk form and not finding
18582s a whole lot of value for it as GG could
18584s potentially get caught in the middle
18586s they are running the full sustainability
18587s composition though with that zip and
18590s Takeda so if any team gets properly
18592s close enough physically they will have
18594s the Decatur ultimate to force them back
18596s with the Tammy ultimate to drop as well
18597s to be able to immediately gain
18599s themselves some grain back and obviously
18601s the zip ultimate to make sure that even
18603s separated even isolated away from your
18605s team you're still going to be able to
18606s stay standing as Alliance want this
18609s Morris blessing immediately drop the
18610s Tammy ultimate aren't going to get
18612s contested over at no second time you're
18613s going to be stepping up to the plate and
18615s dropping a temi ultimate over it and as
18617s a result the loot upgrade is their blood
18620s rip is left behind but let legendary
18622s armor more than happy to been out
18624s you know I think zon actually just ended
18627s up picking that blood Ripper up so gonna
18629s be interesting to see uh if we actually
18632s get that coming through uh from the
18634s ferrier here but at the moment they look
18636s content to just take pop shots with the
18639s bow Alliance man again really really
18642s interesting to see how well they're
18645s performing today and the growth that
18647s this team has had going forward uh as
18651s they are in the top three today and you
18654s know I I think we're in a position where
18655s nobody can take top position away from
18658s te for the day but you know some of
18661s these teams you have to look at and just
18663s really appreciate how much they've grown
18666s and Alliance is definitely one of those
18668s teams wbg over here trying to come to
18671s the Box looking to pick up some of those
18673s scrap Sleepwalker feeling forced into
18675s that monk transformation as we see the
18678s Feria magnet come through on the other
18680s side here and Alliance looking to see if
18683s they can get some grab together as well
18686s and this not really a great final Circle
18690s for these monk players whatsoever
18691s there's so many places uh for these
18693s players to hide
18695s so much cover coming through and so much
18698s fog you know typically when you're gonna
18700s see a lot of these grabs coming through
18702s for some of these monk players they're
18704s sort of these long range grabs from one
18706s side of the circle to the other but with
18708s so much fog here uh given the daytime of
18712s the map and where we are in shipwreck
18713s it's gonna be very hard for many of
18715s these monk players to make those sort of
18717s long range grabs hopping for themselves
18719s so we're going to see less and less
18721s grabs coming through because of the
18722s terrain and that fog as we see here uh
18725s GG starting to rip through the members
18727s of wbg and GG has been that team today
18731s that came in on an absolute tear and has
18735s not been able to find a follow-up game
18738s anywhere near as good as their game won
18741s today so maybe they'll be able to find
18744s that game they're looking for here in
18746s this sort of final Circle space where
18747s you see AOW pickup elimination onto OC
18750s Slayer and that's gonna be it for the
18751s members of ocgg also going to find
18754s another elimination on to KLA wolves uh
18758s somehow still in this Lobby is going to
18761s find their third elimination on to oug's
18764s the king Gigi back here with so much
18767s cover here Kayla's wakey C gonna be
18769s picked up by team wolves as well KLA
18772s finding themselves in quite the terrible
18775s situation here trying to get back down
18777s to that kurumi ultimate ykc goes
18779s extremely lows and his Wolf's sorrow
18781s who's going to capitalize on that
18783s elimination KLA down to a single member
18785s left remaining alive qgg's just trying
18787s to keep it going on a single tick of HP
18790s Venom tip coming through and starting to
18793s rip through alliances Lynn Lynn of
18796s course with that legendary armor though
18797s going to have quite the health bar but
18800s unfortunately you see just how quick
18802s those Venom tips can come through and
18805s pressure these monk players as Lynn
18807s feels forced to jump down up bot side
18810s and D Monk and Ting Tao more than happy
18813s to follow up on that takes up the
18816s elimination onto alliance's Lin
18819s well if it's still Leading The Kills at
18822s the moment in this Lobby 15 players left
18824s te already claiming 11 lives Gigi's
18827s composition still got all three of its
18830s players working despite getting a little
18831s bit of pressure from AOW when they
18833s identified that there was a Decatur
18834s hanging towards the edges of that zone
18836s trying to play that position and force
18838s those players into that Zone tickets PE
18840s turn on to the members of AOW vvv pose
18843s extremely low has to use that Viper
18845s ultimate behind the Witch and windwards
18847s to be able to get that safety blanket
18849s when the ultimate charges through we'll
18851s be able to connect the stun as well onto
18853s wolves 14 as txa takes advantage of the
18856s opportunity left there for that Viper
18859s comes in with the kill finds both sorrow
18862s and 14 in one euro ultimate coming
18865s through from te and then immediately
18867s using that wuten TP to make their way
18870s out of being that focused Target in the
18872s middle after using both the Viper and
18874s the yodel wall of GG now make their move
18877s earthshaker comes from Miss Gear with
18879s the great sword connecting onto the
18881s members of TST XJ g g four more kills
18885s and they'll have surpassed what te sat
18888s benchu Falls another kill to Gigi's
18890s tally as we're going to see free free
18893s Oak pushing onto these members try to
18895s keep everybody away from the center of
18897s that zone so that when the Decatur
18899s ultimate comes through it's going to
18900s spiral them into that Zone tickets vvv
18903s with the Viper ultimate finds the stun
18905s but they don't have the members alive to
18908s be able to capitalize onto it Leo will
18910s be able to take down three three oh but
18912s it's not the fight when the team needed
18914s right now there's a vvv swaps to that
18917s pole so tries to push these players back
18919s wbg pull out the blood rippers to Zone
18922s that players around them from pushing on
18925s to Jing for as long as possible vvv does
18928s take a little bit of damage for matching
18929s making his own to The High Ground looks
18931s for that recent opportunity to get a
18933s little bit of Health back as Gigi are
18935s still locked into this fight against
18936s t-e-t getting a window now with that
18939s wuchen to be able to offer him for some
18942s of the damage and survive a little bit
18944s longer but they're going to lose Leo
18946s it's just vvv who throws out the blue
18949s and gets married Gigi's misky now from
18952s the top rugs with the Earth Shaker
18954s charged up comes in authenticator off by
18956s connecting on to the members as we see
18959s the attempted Viper ultimate coming
18961s through from vvv but mystia on the
18964s cicada with the great sword Earth Shaker
18967s combo is able to Pummel the members of
18971s The Players a random swapping over to
18974s that Decatur ultimate as well to just
18976s keep everyone staggered around them
18978s plays it perfectly for that seventh and
18981s collapsing Zone and unfortunately for
18983s vvv even though they've got the Viper
18986s still there they just don't have the
18987s follow-up damage when the stunts connect
18989s to be able to lock close members of GG
18992s down fully you know I've got to give it
18995s to GG's misky in here commit
18998s commit over and
19000s oh did that Earth Shaker knowing how
19002s risky it is but me
19005s wrist every single time having the
19008s patience to wait for the perfect moment
19010s to strike finding elimination after
19013s elimination for team gg gg gonna cap the
19017s day out half our games off with a dub in
19021s game number one and game number six Gigi
19024s says look we can do it again you can
19026s talk all that you want about us not
19029s being able to find the Repeat
19031s Performance but we're gonna show you
19033s you're wrong as they come in and lock
19035s down game number six for their second
19037s MVP of the day Moxie yeah they played
19041s that composition like we said I
19042s absolutely perfectly like you are
19045s playing to get to final zone so your
19047s Takeda just survives and that was
19050s honestly something that really impressed
19051s me the way that Gigi would trade spaces
19054s so that when the Takeda was coming under
19056s Fire one of the other two teammates
19058s would step up and take that damage
19060s instead and a lot of the time when we do
19062s complex Gigi are always very in tune
19064s with each other they will always be like
19065s Oh I'm stunned or I'm stag a lot can
19067s someone step in front of this and body
19069s block it for me and that's exactly what
19072s they do they lose free free a very early
19074s on unfortunately that's one less body to
19077s be able to absorb that damage from the
19078s Takeda but it's still enough to have
19080s that second teammate to be able to call
19082s in on something that unfortunately some
19085s of those other teams don't have
19087s availability to so when we see wbg it's
19089s Jing still running around with the blood
19091s Rippers and he takes that Focus fight he
19093s doesn't have someone to take the focus
19095s away from him Gigi understanding even if
19098s they lose their other two teammates as
19100s long as the Decatur is still standing
19101s with the ultimate bolt up and ready to
19104s go they've still got enough kills to be
19106s able to come in with that win
19109s you know I actually want to mention
19110s something about wbg's Jing and I'm a
19113s call out Jing just a little bit here he
19115s pulls the blood Ripper out he connects
19118s onto vvv and all he has to do is commit
19121s to continue to shove vvv into the zone
19125s and he can pick up another elimination
19128s for his team but you can see the fear
19132s where he turns the blood Ripper away
19134s because he doesn't want to walk into the
19137s zone and because of that vvv gets to
19140s break free and then they're able to lock
19142s down Jing together because all of the
19146s members of te are there to capitalize on
19151s the fact that Jing lets go of the blood
19153s Ripper and I just want to look Jing in
19155s the face and be like look you've got bvv
19157s locked down in this your top three just
19160s take the kill like you're in top three
19163s already you have evv locked down they
19166s don't have their F available there's no
19168s golden Focus for them to break out of
19170s the blood Ripper you're in the pro
19172s league you've caught somebody out in the
19174s blood Ripper play for the clip play for
19177s the extra kill wbb G wbg's Jing I expect
19181s better of you
19182s I mean at least he's able to survive and
19185s given some of the situations that wpg
19188s find themselves in earlier in that game
19190s to pick up still a fourth place decent
19193s decent for the team they can be not
19195s quite happy with that but I I guess
19197s satisfied Gigi however gonna be picking
19200s up another first place finish tea and
19202s Alliance both continue to impress like
19204s tea that's very familiar form Alliance
19207s like we've said all day really happy to
19210s see that this team is is stepping up and
19212s improving like you can tell that a lot
19213s of work has gone in to make sure that
19215s they're able to cover a lot of their
19217s weaknesses that they had in previous
19219s iterations where they would very similar
19221s to wolves just push aggressively forward
19223s and go out very early on never really
19225s finding momentum of tempo to be able to
19228s play off of but GG you can see it there
19230s with the Takeda with the Tammy zip just
19232s having that sustainability having that
19234s control of the fights around them Alex
19236s and being able to come for Tammy just
19238s lock players down with that Timmy
19240s ultimate but also the Whisk controls
19242s that you get evil a more space just
19244s pushed away from these teams pushing
19246s them even closer than this here on that
19249s cicada and you can see it's a team
19250s effort no one really ever had in terms
19252s of damage that that done both lxm and
19255s Missy are on the tummy and the cicada
19258s are very close in terms of numbers that
19260s they do because the dynamic of who leads
19263s the charge changes based on what you've
19265s got if the Tammy with the Wisp was able
19268s to find why he's normally in that Ford's
19269s position he's no middle one starting off
19271s that damage and looking to find the kill
19272s but then when the Decatur ultimate is up
19274s that damage burst is done enough
19277s yeah absolutely and you you love to see
19281s like you said I think you called it best
19283s right GG they're just so clean on the
19286s comms right they know how to sort of do
19289s this swap in position between one
19292s another to not only be able to buy hits
19294s off but to be able to maximize the
19296s amount of damage that they're pumping
19298s out and make sure that they're securing
19300s kills and you see it in the end gear
19302s right with Gigi's miskia who can is
19305s constantly committing to letting that
19307s Earth shaper Shaker rip and that's
19309s something that you know in trios yes you
19313s can use Earth Shaker but it's very scary
19315s to let it go because anybody at any
19317s point can walk up beside you or behind
19320s you and let a Parry rip and you can find
19322s that great sword out of your hand and
19323s you can find yourself dead very very
19326s quickly but no fear coming out from
19329s misky here as he continues to let that
19331s Earth shake earthshaker rip time and
19334s time again in the final Circle because
19335s he knows that his team's there to lock
19337s the players down and set him up for
19339s success and no surprises that it is GG's
19342s miskia who will be coming out our MVP
19344s for game number six yeah
19346s interesting too that
19348s that Grace I'm just continuing to cycle
19350s for this oh Shaker child jobs lxm is
19354s also letting the full right click on the
19356s pulse order to go so every single time
19359s Gigi are constantly making sure that
19361s they have just area denial for the teams
19363s and so if you're running away from the
19364s pole sword and expending energy to tap
19366s Dodge out of that one because you don't
19367s want to try and find the pirate timing a
19370s lot of the time you're actually being
19372s baited into the Earth Shaker swings
19374s coming through from this gear and that's
19375s continuing to build that cicadas rage up
19379s to generate the ultimate as quickly as
19381s possible so he has it to full on to when
19384s that zone collapses and you're also
19386s putting a lot more pressure on to that
19388s Timmy people want the temmie end of the
19390s way they want the pulse are gone so they
19391s don't get right clicked into just that
19393s one two tap of being shoved into Zone
19395s tick so they're gonna turn on him as
19397s opposed to someone who's swinging a Nerf
19399s Shaker and again that goes back to
19401s Gigi's Columns of understanding if we
19403s can throw more focus on the player who's
19405s not a Decatur we absolutely should do
19407s that because tell me when collapses is
19410s nowhere near as valuable as Takeda when
19413s final Zone collapses
19415s absolutely and I I agree with your your
19418s analysis 100 the fact that they were
19421s just able to stagger back and forth uh
19423s between using that pulled Sword and the
19426s Earth Shaker to threaten space and then
19428s again it you know we talk about Target
19430s acquisition and how important that is
19433s time and time again it's just as
19434s important to understand which player on
19437s your team is going to be leading the
19439s charge but speaking of leading the
19441s charge we're gonna Jaeger take away and
19443s lead the charge straight into an
19444s interview
19448s hey guys this is
19453s Jaeger here with vvv and let him say
19455s hello to our audience hello as always
19461s have fun so first I have a question
19464s because it's like this week we came to
19467s the new match patch and we think that
19470s maybe Echoes will be in the matches but
19474s um it seems like we didn't see today in
19476s trolls game and I would like to know why
19478s yeah
19485s [Music]
19502s okay so in the latest match in the like
19506s ranking we think Echoes have more
19508s ability to do something in the matches
19511s and I think maybe for the next match
19514s patch we will use the echo's intros game
19517s okay let's move on to next part answer
19520s for Treasure
19523s scientists
19528s okay so you guys can see a question on
19532s the screen and if you know the answer
19534s just type them in the chat box after our
19536s player counting three two one we will
19539s take a screenshot and the lucky guy will
19541s be whispered so let's see today's
19543s question
19545s which team is leading the scoreboard now
19550s in guys
19574s so I just asked him because I know that
19577s they have an ambition for the regular
19579s game so what is that and vvv just said
19583s they want like four bi-weekly final they
19586s all want to be the leading the
19588s scoreboard and enter to buy weekly final
19591s okay I think you guys already know the
19593s question and I think it's time for us to
19595s counting and let's start it
19597s [Music]
19599s three two one screenshot okay it's time
19604s for us to find out the correct answer
19611s the correct answer is DTE
19614s and also I know that for this week it's
19618s also a very big day for the team te
19621s because like your teammate is going to
19623s have the birthday so would you please
19625s share the plan with us
19643s foreign
19653s camping and picnic and barbecue together
19656s and restful one day and also we would
19659s like to say happy birthday to Leo happy
19661s birthday
19663s always
19671s thank you for today's interview and we
19674s will get back to our casters
19676s foreign
19680s [Music]
19682s [Laughter]
19691s the full six games to be able to to
19693s watch through but the desk had a little
19696s bit of a baton pass today so I I got two
19699s last games than I'm used to and as well
19701s it feels like everything's just gone so
19703s much faster but I'm super happy that I
19705s got to be here that I got to see Gigi
19707s stepping up to the plate that uh the
19710s good old emea crew representation in
19713s Alliance are able to to find themselves
19715s a little bit of a pudding and show that
19718s they they are able to to stand in mvpr
19720s that they can go toe-toe some of the
19721s best and still come out on top but yeah
19724s I'm absolutely so proud of Team Alliance
19727s this season the amount of hard work that
19730s they've really put in sense worlds
19732s really has shown this season and it's
19736s it's these steady increments that really
19738s start to separate over the you know the
19741s years and the seasons teams that are
19744s going to be you know these sort of top
19747s end teams versus teams that are here now
19751s but aren't going to be here later again
19754s wbg being one of those teams that really
19756s needs to step up I think we kind of hit
19758s the nail on the head with that
19760s particular team today being a team that
19762s is still just as good as they were day
19765s one the problem being that that's not
19767s good enough anymore this is a team that
19771s needs to look themselves hard in the
19773s mirror after their performance today and
19776s their performance throughout the season
19778s thus far for the spring split and go
19781s okay hi we can't just continue to ride
19784s on our Laurels and the sort of
19786s performances that we've put out you know
19789s wbg Sleepwalker used to be one of the
19792s best monks in the league anymore we're
19794s not in that sort of space anymore so
19797s many players have improved and we
19799s haven't improved alongside of them they
19803s need to take a stop back they need to go
19804s back to the drawing board and their
19806s coach needs to you know kind of ride
19809s them a little bit and be like hey look
19811s you you guys were the best of the best
19814s before you're not there anymore you're
19817s still just as good as you were but you
19819s haven't improved with everybody else and
19822s that's something that you know really
19825s starts to separate some of the great if
19828s you will away from some of the not so
19830s greats at the end of the day I mean
19832s these are teams that are going to have
19836s to either grow with the rest of the
19837s league or they're going to find
19839s themselves being left behind and that's
19842s where wbg is that's what they're facing
19844s right now and Alliance is a team that
19846s has shown the exact opposite of that
19848s that they're not willing to continue to
19851s be a team that always shows up at the
19853s bottom of the leaderboard or in the
19855s middle of the pack they want to show
19857s that they can you know hang with the big
19860s dogs at the very top of the pack and
19862s that's the sort of space they're finding
19864s themselves in Te on the other hand I
19866s also have to give them a round of
19868s applauses consistency was something that
19871s that they struggled with you know they
19873s were able to find themselves these big
19876s pop-off games and end up at the top of
19878s the leaderboard uh bi-weekly after
19880s bi-weekly and then getting into the
19882s bi-weekly finals not able to have that
19885s same sort of performance whereas today
19886s not only did they have their big pop-off
19889s games but they were always in top three
19891s they've been able to find that sort of
19894s consistency and is much crap as we like
19898s to give team te that's a drastically big
19901s change for them they still have stuff to
19902s work on you know we look at the
19904s bi-weekly last week where they start to
19906s make some very big mistakes in the
19907s bi-weekly finals because games don't
19910s start to go their way after game number
19912s three so they're not a perfect team but
19916s they are a much better team than we have
19918s seen them be in the past Moxie yeah I've
19920s feel like it's the same to you like
19922s they're still running the same thing
19923s because when we see that Yoda
19924s composition system on the F1 it's just
19926s now this is like change is that when
19928s they drop off of the rip they're not
19931s really taking fights immediately they're
19933s taking just a little bit of time like
19934s even if it's just 20 seconds to loot
19937s around and find some gear before looking
19940s for those engagements before looking for
19941s third parties and as a result like you
19943s can see 14.6 30.6 1.8 a little bit of
19947s rock in one game three but every team I
19949s think just runs into a spot of bad luck
19951s unfortunately 35 9.9 26.5 like this is a
19955s lot more consistently good scoring than
19958s we're seeing from te a lot of the time
19960s they'll swing between like a 1.8 game or
19963s a 30.6 game or sometimes even like 40.3
19967s that they're able to pick up but seeing
19970s that consistency I'm hoping it's going
19972s to carry through I'm hoping that same
19974s level of aggression just tempered to the
19977s right form for the right situation is go
19980s going to be something we continue to see
19982s from this team as we head into the next
19984s couple of matches which are going to be
19986s groups A and C going Toe to Toe yeah
19989s we're gonna be coming in I'll be back
19990s tomorrow for solos as well I'll be here
19993s uh to bring you guys through these six
19996s games uh unfortunately Moxie will not be
19998s but Raven will be joining me as my
20000s co-caster tomorrow and these games are
20002s shaping up to be quite well I think a
20005s lot of eyes including yours as well
20008s Moxie are gonna be on Master demo I
20011s think all of us are looking for him to
20013s perform well in the nvpl and he sort of
20017s struggled uh earlier this week to find
20019s his footing and during the bi-weekly
20021s last week as well considering how well
20023s he performed during the regular weekly
20026s so hopefully uh he's made some
20029s adjustments as coach has given some
20031s advice and we'll see him come in
20032s tomorrow and perform much much better
20034s yeah unfortunately I'm not going to be
20036s that like you said but I'm going to be
20037s back on the 23rd I believe for the
20040s truest actions so I'll be once again
20042s performing through your TV I believe
20044s with Jake alongside me so we'll get to
20047s see whether or not some of these
20048s adaptations from some of the teams have
20049s carried through whether or not Alliance
20051s are going to be able to continue to play
20054s this more aggressive more consistent
20056s style I'm hoping so I'm also hoping that
20058s we can see Leicester sceners or less
20060s just in this alongside monks like I I
20062s hate that I saw the composition that I
20064s wanted to see come through that it shows
20066s that these teams still think about last
20068s year in the fact that it did work last
20070s year the problem is that like you said
20072s Casey like they identified what
20075s composition what Heroes they needed for
20077s that composition they just didn't quite
20079s work out how to pull it off most
20081s importantly they didn't work out why you
20084s need to drop like you need ultimates for
20086s that uh comp right you really need the
20089s ultimates and if you're looking for
20090s third party you were special need the
20091s ultimates because the Justina can use
20093s the free shelf on but that's only Gonna
20094s Save Us a lot of the time as well when
20096s you use that free shelf on you're
20097s putting yourself into more danger you're
20099s drawing attention to the fact that you
20100s just use your best defensive toolkit and
20103s that you are going to be essentially
20105s extremely vulnerable the second you fall
20107s out of that form because if you time it
20108s right like even if you're trying to
20109s cancel it early a lot of the time you
20111s just go straight into a charger Blue
20112s from some of the other teams I've seen
20114s oh cool you're a mobile great well we're
20116s all just gonna cluster around you and
20118s all three of our players are going to
20119s stagger lock you into absolute Oblivion
20122s yeah you know and the other thing you
20124s know we mentioned talking about the hot
20125s drops and you mentioned specifically
20127s secret tunnel one of the other big
20129s things about running Justina and why
20131s secret tunnel is such a good drop is not
20133s only the ability to land those hits much
20136s easier but the fact that it forces the
20139s other teams to be grouped together and
20141s if you're running the V1 version of that
20143s Justino and you're able to hit multiple
20146s targets with the freeze you actually get
20149s a reset on that F ability and every
20151s single time you can hit multiple targets
20154s with it you can find that reset we've
20156s actually seen in the past in Old Seasons
20159s when Justina was meta in Trio's teams
20162s getting locked down in secret tunnel to
20164s you know seven eight sometimes nine
20167s charges coming out of that ultimate and
20169s just keeping them locked down and Frozen
20171s in place I don't so much mind uh the
20175s Justina pick coming through for these
20177s monk comps I think they need to make
20179s that adjustment where they dropped the
20181s 10 me they're too worried about running
20184s into these sort of other comps that are
20186s running temmies and it's shutting down
20188s the Justina but that comes with decision
20192s making right at the end of the day you
20193s need to look at other comps you go okay
20195s they have a temi you need to bait the
20197s temi old out or find a way to engage on
20201s that team once the temi old has been
20203s baited out by another team so Justina
20206s yes she might have weaknesses into the
20208s Demi but you can't just lock another
20209s attemi to try to show that up at the
20212s detriment of not bringing in a Healer
20214s for these monk compositions but ladies
20216s and gentlemen that is unfortunately
20217s gonna be it from me and Moxie tonight
20219s here at the nbpl it is a time for us to
