| 603s | calling all heroes is back and we have |
| 605s | thousands of Heroes that are answering |
| 607s | the call I am tala joined by door and we |
| 610s | are so excited to bring you the day one |
| 612s | of Swiss sages of the radiant hero major |
| 614s | 3 and it is the last major where you can |
| 617s | earn |
| 618s | these for the Challenger that's right |
| 621s | we're playing in pretty much as |
| 623s | important game as ever as it's the last |
| 625s | chance for a lot of these teams to |
| 626s | really get in before the championship we |
| 627s | take a look at our calendar this has |
| 629s | been a long and arduous year but it has |
| 632s | led us up to you see right there in |
| 635s | December we're in major three the last |
| 637s | shot for these teams to get points and |
| 638s | qualify before the championship or maybe |
| 641s | they could try and get in before that |
| 642s | lcq but let's be real tala that is going |
| 645s | to be a blood |
| 647s | bath yeah and we have a lot of history |
| 650s | between these teams thus far six teams |
| 653s | are going to qualify off circuit points |
| 655s | and the last of them are going to be |
| 657s | decided today and you want to talk talk |
| 659s | a little bit about what we've seen so |
| 661s | far and how those points stack up yeah |
| 664s | so the points are really tricky because |
| 666s | the points are tracked by players and |
| 668s | the players all mix around and you only |
| 670s | count your two best majors and your two |
| 672s | best minors so some players are coming |
| 674s | in having played more Majors than others |
| 675s | some players can gain more points than |
| 677s | this from this particular tournament |
| 679s | than others it's a little bit of a mess |
| 681s | but I I last night I went I consulted |
| 683s | the ancient texts the ancient TOS of |
| 685s | calling all heroes and I went ahead and |
| 687s | did the math if you really want to look |
| 688s | into it check my Twitter I've got a |
| 690s | whole spreadsheet there of this but as |
| 692s | it stands these are the current point |
| 693s | standings between these teams ESS |
| 695s | ethereal Standing Tall Above the Rest |
| 698s | with |
| 699s | 10,600 having won the last three calling |
| 702s | all heroes events in the distance seems |
| 704s | to only be widening with them in the |
| 706s | rest of the |
| 707s | competition and I mean we have basically |
| 711s | five teams that are almost guaranteed a |
| 712s | spot unless some kind of Miracle is |
| 715s | pulled off between the places of 6th to |
| 717s | 11th there's still that chance of |
| 719s | players who aren't or teams that are not |
| 721s | on this graphic in the top eight just |
| 723s | yet and remember it's only the top six |
| 724s | so as it stands if this major didn't |
| 726s | exist nyxl Embers they would be in they |
| 729s | would be qualified but we never know and |
| 732s | like you said the top two major the most |
| 735s | points gained from the two of them some |
| 737s | people stand to uh gain more points so |
| 740s | it is definitely very very complicated |
| 742s | here and a lot is on the line yeah so |
| 745s | with that being said let's go ahead and |
| 746s | take a look at our format and what these |
| 748s | teams are fighting for as well because |
| 751s | there's a lot more on the line than just |
| 754s | circuit points and if you want to get to |
| 755s | those prize pools you've got to get |
| 757s | through this Gauntlet day one and two of |
| 759s | Swiss play six rounds are going on it is |
| 761s | six games at first to two that you got |
| 763s | to get through and I'll be real those |
| 765s | first twoes they go so quick tala you |
| 768s | have got to be on your toes when you're |
| 769s | playing games as fast as this yeah and |
| 772s | we also have that map order we are going |
| 774s | to be starting off with the uh control |
| 778s | map as all always going to hybrid and |
| 780s | then flasho so seeing a bit of that |
| 782s | flasho in competitive as well map poool |
| 786s | it's going to be Arctic Peninsula Busan |
| 788s | and Samoa for control hybrid Kings Row |
| 790s | and Midtown and flasho we're looking at |
| 792s | new junk City and surasa I do like this |
| 795s | map Pool though it's a it's a little |
| 796s | trim it's a little slim compared to |
| 798s | sometimes you'll normally see like you |
| 799s | three or four in each of these but with |
| 802s | the number of matches that these teams |
| 803s | have to play with the amount of prep |
| 804s | they need to do for now five different |
| 806s | map types I like it a lot it gives them |
| 808s | a very Focus idea and there's still |
| 810s | plenty of diversity here in terms of |
| 812s | comps that you can try to force on these |
| 814s | different Maps there's kind of something |
| 815s | for everybody in every map type so this |
| 817s | feels really really good to me but again |
| 820s | with all that said and done that's how |
| 821s | they get there let's take a look at what |
| 823s | they're actually playing for this |
| 826s | prizing it's good stuff it's good stuff |
| 828s | this time first place 5K second place |
| 831s | walking away with half that third and |
| 832s | fourth still walking away with their |
| 834s | pockets full down beneath that though it |
| 837s | is just circuit points but for some of |
| 838s | these teams that means life or |
| 841s | death yeah and we also have a bit of a |
| 843s | richer prize pull as well because of |
| 846s | that partnership with be quiet don't we |
| 848s | D yeah huge shout out be quiet they are |
| 851s | giving away two first place six PC cases |
| 853s | and six power supplies second and third |
| 855s | and fourth are not going away |
| 857s | empty-handed though some really sick |
| 858s | stuff so just some extra incentive to |
| 861s | perform well in this final |
| 863s | major it's definitely going to be a very |
| 866s | exciting one so now we are looking at |
| 869s | the two teams that we're seeing in the |
| 871s | first round of the Swiss stages and it's |
| 873s | going to be Fable a team that we saw on |
| 875s | that top eight graphic I think currently |
| 878s | in the fifth place spot versus meow for |
| 881s | pocket yeah meow for pocket I think are |
| 884s | here to show a good time and honestly I |
| 886s | think they can put up a pretty solid |
| 887s | fight looking at that roster but for |
| 889s | fable there's a lot on the line them and |
| 891s | wisp are kind of the only two teams that |
| 893s | even remotely reachable in terms of |
| 895s | points by some of those like you were |
| 897s | talking about seventh through 11th teams |
| 899s | so getting through Swifts stage clean I |
| 901s | think is very much uh the way that Fable |
| 903s | would like to do this because that kind |
| 904s | of guarantees them their spot by doing |
| 908s | so and looking at some of the viewer |
| 910s | incentives as well we will be giving |
| 913s | away some 10,000 free Chipotle Burritos |
| 917s | o along the course of the event so look |
| 919s | out for that and those shouts in the |
| 922s | chat I I feel like an OverWatch Oprah I |
| 924s | got I'm tossing burritos check on your |
| 926s | chairs there's Contender skins while |
| 929s | you're at it there's discounts for stuff |
| 931s | oh man it it feels good but of course |
| 934s | you can get those Contender skins |
| 935s | specifically far and Moira for watching |
| 937s | so all the more incentive to keep it |
| 939s | open in a separate tab watch get |
| 942s | involved we got Rising going on at the |
| 944s | same time on top of that of course the |
| 946s | the big the bad the main series is going |
| 948s | on but the rising series is also we've |
| 950s | got a competition here for all the same |
| 953s | people it's up slightly lower in terms |
| 956s | of the SR range that we're looking for |
| 958s | in terms of how the those teams are |
| 959s | competing and they've got kind of the |
| 960s | same |
| 962s | format yeah so you know we are just |
| 964s | looking at you get a skin you get a skin |
| 967s | maybe you get a burrito and also on top |
| 970s | of that we've got a lot of torney days |
| 972s | for you so looking at this wait day one |
| 975s | and two this weekend it's just round |
| 977s | robin the Swiss stages until we get into |
| 980s | the playoffs bracket next week which is |
| 982s | first |
| 986s | two yeah really important stuff winner |
| 988s | take all prising for that one less less |
| 990s | points less math to be worried about so |
| 992s | we keep things simple for the rising end |
| 994s | of things but like you were talking |
| 995s | about we got a match to get to now meow |
| 998s | for pocket versus Fable things are |
| 1000s | starting off on Antarctic Peninsula |
| 1002s | which means I think a lot of sick action |
| 1004s | with the composition that's been kind of |
| 1005s | brewing in the background as of late if |
| 1007s | you watch World Cup you got a little |
| 1008s | snippet of what's going on in terms of |
| 1010s | the |
| 1011s | meta now we're moving kind of into the |
| 1014s | sigma brawl Meta and it is going to be |
| 1016s | definitely really interesting Bastion |
| 1018s | has had you know his moment in the sun |
| 1020s | had a lot of that play honestly I think |
| 1023s | my cat has heard meow for pocket is |
| 1025s | playing and and now it's very over |
| 1027s | excited about the fact that we are about |
| 1029s | to see some cats on streen he's me |
| 1031s | meowing and it's all of a sudden just |
| 1032s | pawing but Fable like we said very |
| 1035s | experienced already in the top five |
| 1038s | practically guaranteed a qualification |
| 1040s | from how it stands unless we have some |
| 1043s | sort of upset some really big miracle |
| 1045s | being pulled off by the lower uh lower |
| 1047s | parts of this teams me for pocket mostly |
| 1050s | more of a Content creation team here I |
| 1052s | mean they have content creators on their |
| 1054s | team but I'm not sure that necessarily |
| 1055s | means they're here to create content |
| 1057s | outside of trying to set up an upset |
| 1058s | here it'd be really impressive but it's |
| 1060s | tough into Fable right because you're |
| 1062s | talking about D you talked about Sigma |
| 1063s | coming in you talked about Bastion kind |
| 1064s | of rotating out which is funny because |
| 1066s | like bastion's rotated out for everybody |
| 1068s | except for when you're playing against |
| 1069s | Winston then you just go back and |
| 1071s | install lock it and win the game so he's |
| 1072s | just keeping Winston in jail for the |
| 1074s | most part but that bastion's been for |
| 1075s | the most part swapped out to a sojourn |
| 1078s | and you talk about sojourn with these |
| 1079s | two rosters there's one player I'm |
| 1082s | really really scared of and that is Arya |
| 1084s | on Fable dear God do people fear arya's |
| 1090s | sojourn Arya definitely a player to |
| 1093s | watch out for and we're looking at Avery |
| 1097s | as well on the sigma and speaking with a |
| 1099s | few casters shout out to CB Avery is a |
| 1103s | very strong Sigma player and this meta |
| 1106s | does kind of favor uh playing right into |
| 1109s | their hands of their um of their picks |
| 1112s | so fables roster snar joining over from |
| 1116s | nyxl previously nyxl Academy and they |
| 1119s | also picked up Kopi as well also |
| 1121s | previously nyxl Academy so they have |
| 1123s | definitely have a lot of Heavy Hitters |
| 1125s | being added to this roster and not just |
| 1128s | in the player section but you check up |
| 1130s | there coach tensa well-proven coach |
| 1133s | along contenders calling all heroes and |
| 1135s | the like you talked about SN joining the |
| 1137s | team we had a we had a saying in |
| 1139s | contenders don't mess with the schn and |
| 1141s | it is absolutely going to run true today |
| 1143s | this roster is lined to the brim with |
| 1146s | experience in strong players but over on |
| 1148s | the other side we should not be snuffing |
| 1150s | our noses at them now for pocket despite |
| 1153s | the fun name it's here to take |
| 1157s | names we going to see how they play into |
| 1161s | this meta as well don't know too much |
| 1163s | about them in terms of scrims and |
| 1165s | competitive experience but definitely |
| 1167s | nothing to turn your nose up against and |
| 1170s | let's see what they can set up here with |
| 1172s | the team called meow for pocket against |
| 1175s | Fable some uh team that has proven |
| 1177s | themselves quite a bit thus far and have |
| 1179s | added a lot of Firepower yeah I think |
| 1182s | the big thing to watch here is |
| 1183s | specifically just being able to go even |
| 1185s | in that hit skan match up Kylie has her |
| 1187s | work cut out for Nemo same thing in the |
| 1189s | tank line being able to match Avery is |
| 1191s | going to be a bit of a tricky one and |
| 1193s | then Haley and M allian I think I'm |
| 1194s | really interested in in this backline |
| 1196s | right two people who are super involved |
| 1197s | in the community Haley doing the Social |
| 1199s | Media stuff Eman also streaming |
| 1202s | constantly I think she's actually live |
| 1203s | right now go sport go do all the good |
| 1206s | things especially if you want some good |
| 1209s | Baptist POV but I want to know looking |
| 1211s | at this roster looking at the heroes |
| 1212s | they've selected they kind of give us a |
| 1214s | little hint towards what they like to |
| 1215s | play towards what they want to play and |
| 1217s | this doesn't necessarily scream |
| 1219s | confidence staring at like a sigma brawl |
| 1221s | mirror with the heroes that they've |
| 1223s | teased with us I especially when you are |
| 1226s | playing like far they're kind of teasing |
| 1228s | like a far Mercy kind of composition |
| 1231s | which I think is very unlikely is |
| 1233s | actually going to get played especially |
| 1234s | since you have sojourn on that other |
| 1236s | side you have the rail gun and that one |
| 1239s | shot uh potential with the right click |
| 1241s | it is just going to be a really tough |
| 1242s | matchup in general to be playing against |
| 1245s | such consistent DPS when you are playing |
| 1247s | that flyer comp and considering that |
| 1249s | we're starting things off on Antarctic |
| 1251s | Peninsula which wasn't chosen by either |
| 1252s | team randomly chosen at the beginning of |
| 1254s | the tournament so we do get that going |
| 1256s | it is completely unbiased uh this I |
| 1258s | think both very well for fable if you're |
| 1260s | talking about Maps where that particular |
| 1262s | Sigma composition looks really really |
| 1264s | good all three of Antarctic Peninsula |
| 1267s | play fantastically labs to Icebreaker uh |
| 1270s | to the third one it is going to be a of |
| 1273s | a tough job getting past that Sigma |
| 1275s | shield in stopping the soj from taking |
| 1277s | those really powerful off |
| 1279s | angles yeah for sure and I'm definitely |
| 1282s | excited to see what comps we're going to |
| 1283s | see on the side of meow for pocket like |
| 1286s | what we were teased I'm unsure if that's |
| 1288s | going to come out but if it does it's |
| 1290s | definitely going to be an interesting |
| 1291s | matchup and not going to be quite |
| 1293s | playing in The Meta and I'm also |
| 1294s | wondering if we're going to see that |
| 1296s | doomfist come out we saw a little bit of |
| 1298s | it back in the World Cup as well a lot |
| 1301s | of that doomfist being played in the |
| 1303s | finals and I'm curious if that might |
| 1305s | come into play because they do doomfist |
| 1308s | does typically play very well into the |
| 1310s | sigma yeah and he plays pretty well on |
| 1312s | this map so if they want to dive I think |
| 1314s | that's the way that they want to do it |
| 1316s | is with the doomfist just with again the |
| 1317s | existence of Bastian and soj being |
| 1319s | decent enough into Winston Winston just |
| 1321s | struggles against the particular meta |
| 1323s | composition right now but should the |
| 1325s | opportunity arise I don't think meower |
| 1327s | pocket are going to deny that chance |
| 1329s | anytime soon but as we pop in let us |
| 1332s | know real quick in chat who you guys |
| 1333s | think this one is going to be taken by |
| 1336s | cam meow for pocket take Maps off of |
| 1338s | fable put some cracks in the armor or |
| 1341s | will it be a swift victory for a team |
| 1343s | that wants to set themselves up for a |
| 1345s | championship run yeah Fable definitely |
| 1348s | wants to put themselves in that position |
| 1350s | just locking themselves in very |
| 1351s | important matchup for them a lot more on |
| 1354s | the line than it meow for pocket |
| 1356s | currently in the 16th Place standing in |
| 1360s | terms of circuit points it's definitely |
| 1362s | going to take a huge miracle for them to |
| 1364s | be able to get into those top standings |
| 1367s | qualify for all those circuit points and |
| 1369s | be able to get into the qualification |
| 1371s | spots yeah I mean qualification spots no |
| 1374s | but I don't think 16th kind of tells us |
| 1376s | again with with the way the points where |
| 1378s | the story of like how close these teams |
| 1380s | are I think the aler pocket is certainly |
| 1382s | closer to Fable than 16 would have you |
| 1384s | believe given that some of the players |
| 1385s | on this team just don't necessarily have |
| 1387s | circuit points from maybe not competing |
| 1389s | or missing tournaments or having |
| 1390s | performed poorly in them in the past so |
| 1393s | they certainly got a shot here on |
| 1395s | Antarctic Pena but it really does come |
| 1396s | down to where we start I think that sets |
| 1398s | the tone for this because this map that |
| 1400s | we're staring at right now Labs I think |
| 1402s | does Bode pretty well same goes here |
| 1405s | underground things get a little bit |
| 1407s | trickier this composition as dive opens |
| 1409s | itself up more but should we start |
| 1410s | things off on Icebreaker the map with |
| 1412s | the big boat the big yellow ship I think |
| 1414s | the dive composition is kind of out of |
| 1416s | the question in terms of at least |
| 1418s | starting the series off and you know you |
| 1419s | always want to start off on the right |
| 1421s | foot so for me for pocket they're kind |
| 1422s | of praying to not start in that one |
| 1424s | particular |
| 1427s | place looking at these compositions as |
| 1430s | well we're really moving away from that |
| 1432s | Winston Tracer Sombra and the Sombra |
| 1434s | rework as just wait till next patch oh |
| 1437s | yeah wind oh no Trac is that Tracer buff |
| 1441s | is terrifying 5.5 to6 oh my God it it's |
| 1446s | daunting the only thing keeping that |
| 1447s | away is like Bastion keeping Winston off |
| 1449s | but who knows they'll probably just |
| 1450s | shove another dive tank in with it and |
| 1452s | call it a composition but for now we |
| 1454s | don't have to deal with it now all we |
| 1456s | have to figure out is what we're playing |
| 1457s | on this map which we've been teasing for |
| 1459s | quite a while the flythroughs are pretty |
| 1460s | but it's time to get into the game Fable |
| 1462s | versus meow for pocket opening up |
| 1463s | calling all heroes major three pogs in |
| 1466s | chat and I want your eyes to the screen |
| 1469s | we start our roll out don't even blink |
| 1472s | cuz blink and you might miss it these |
| 1475s | games go by incredibly fast especially |
| 1477s | with the pacing that we're seeing in The |
| 1479s | Meta thus far so starting off on is this |
| 1484s | Icebreaker the big yellow ship I don't |
| 1486s | know we're good we're not in a boat |
| 1487s | we're underground and this is where |
| 1488s | things feel very good from me for pocket |
| 1491s | there is a a pretty significant |
| 1492s | potential to dive here even when teams |
| 1493s | were playing things like ratra Rush the |
| 1495s | Winston was fairly notable but it looks |
| 1498s | like they want to throw a mirror into |
| 1500s | the mix that far Mercy that you T teased |
| 1503s | earlier though is certainly still alive |
| 1505s | Crystal rain as it popped up with Haley |
| 1507s | swapping off to the Lucio rain swapping |
| 1509s | in what looks like a May pick look like |
| 1512s | we're going full mirror here and I I |
| 1514s | love this from Fable actually if we look |
| 1515s | at the other side of our screen we see |
| 1517s | Lime Locking in a Bastion that might |
| 1519s | stay they're debating whether or not |
| 1521s | they want to run it because they know |
| 1522s | Nemo's on the other side and there is a |
| 1524s | potential for Winston out of me for |
| 1526s | pocket so if that line swaps over to |
| 1529s | Bastion let's do this would be |
| 1531s | interesting but it wouldn't be effective |
| 1532s | necessarily what Meer pocket are running |
| 1534s | they've got one of their own okay well |
| 1537s | sticking with the symmetra this is |
| 1538s | certainly good when you're going up |
| 1540s | against that Sigma on the other side |
| 1542s | getting early control of that High |
| 1543s | Ground lime with the symmetra taking |
| 1545s | down Crystal rain now without the |
| 1547s | immortality field cool down as well |
| 1549s | people uh are in a pretty good spot meow |
| 1552s | pet a bit more dangerous here and |
| 1554s | they're only able to get rid of that |
| 1556s | immortality field on the other side as |
| 1558s | they battle for that control as Point |
| 1560s | unlocks I got to say bit of a rock paper |
| 1562s | scissors win here for fable in terms of |
| 1563s | the DPS when you talk about sojourn when |
| 1565s | you talk about the symmetra in the |
| 1567s | Bastion rolling out on the Bastion kind |
| 1569s | of only wins if the other team is trying |
| 1571s | to run that dive into you meanwhile |
| 1573s | Fable aren't necessarily trying to do |
| 1574s | that the pick does bode well that is a |
| 1577s | really nice pick for mea pocket's side |
| 1581s | they're feeding a lot of that shield and |
| 1582s | sigma though as the Bastion from up top |
| 1585s | still contesting over on the point and E |
| 1588s | is able to find Avery now without the |
| 1589s | tank in the fight they have to kind of |
| 1591s | wrap around the symmetra trying to stay |
| 1593s | alive lime it's getting in from the back |
| 1595s | line nicely done to take down Nemo 200 |
| 1598s | hp has never looked so tanky that was |
| 1601s | the biggest pocket I've ever seen Z |
| 1602s | Panther charged up an entire |
| 1604s | amplification Matrix on lime's health |
| 1606s | bar alone just holding right click and |
| 1608s | preing on that symmetra how did Fable |
| 1611s | get through that I was getting ready to |
| 1612s | congratulate n for pocket on cleaning up |
| 1614s | a fight nicely after only getting one |
| 1616s | pick but last here we are another play |
| 1618s | playing into a deficit of Ultimus a |
| 1620s | significant one at that if they will |
| 1621s | play aggressively here there is very |
| 1622s | little meow for pocket can do to counter |
| 1624s | it yeah meow for pocket might be called |
| 1627s | meow for pocket but lime was definitely |
| 1628s | meowing with the way that they were |
| 1630s | getting healed amp Matrix now out from |
| 1632s | Fable over on The High Ground wild the |
| 1634s | blizzard comes through on arya's side |
| 1636s | two two ultimates already used from |
| 1638s | Fable while the an Matrix comes out a |
| 1641s | little bit later from emth Avery however |
| 1643s | finding Crystal rain Nemo quick to |
| 1645s | follow quick fight from Fable clean |
| 1647s | things up a pretty cheap one at that two |
| 1649s | ultimates to win a fight meanwhile the |
| 1650s | other team still managed to use the |
| 1651s | implication Matrix that's a trade you're |
| 1653s | happy with and the execution looks |
| 1655s | fantastic as well teleporting Arya into |
| 1657s | the backline to get that cleaner |
| 1658s | blizzard off is something that we're |
| 1660s | really looking for nowadays and Fable |
| 1661s | absolutely na it now though is meow for |
| 1664s | Pockets opportunity they've got |
| 1665s | ultimates but they don't want to spend |
| 1666s | all of them and they need to flip the |
| 1668s | point |
| 1670s | here trying so hard flip now they do |
| 1672s | have that blizzard in play they have |
| 1675s | both of the sound barriers it goes down |
| 1677s | and the blizzard as well onto that High |
| 1679s | Ground lime however still finding value |
| 1682s | Haley taking down Z Panther have to rely |
| 1684s | on fopi to try and keep the team up but |
| 1686s | that sound barrier is still in question |
| 1689s | they're still dancing around that point |
| 1690s | now the flux coming through in the sound |
| 1692s | barrier to take all of that over Health |
| 1694s | onto the team Arya comes in clutch just |
| 1697s | in time it doesn't look like meow for |
| 1699s | pocket is going to make it and they all |
| 1701s | go down like dominoes yeah Fable dealt |
| 1704s | with that really nicely meow for pocket |
| 1706s | I I like the order that they the |
| 1708s | ultimates I like that they soaked up |
| 1710s | that gravitic flux with the sound |
| 1711s | barrier to start things off but they |
| 1712s | couldn't follow up on their own blizzard |
| 1714s | properly Fable did a great job of |
| 1716s | pulling their Baptist away making them a |
| 1718s | really difficult Target to Target down |
| 1720s | with the immortality field and then |
| 1722s | simultaneously kind of diving the |
| 1724s | opposing side keeping players away from |
| 1726s | that blizzard zoning off the DPS from |
| 1728s | being able to follow up on it properly |
| 1730s | which yes made for a messy fight but a |
| 1732s | messy fight is better than a fight where |
| 1733s | your entire team just gets frozen up so |
| 1735s | Fable more than happy with that and then |
| 1737s | we're able to make maintain their space |
| 1739s | and use it to win the fight following |
| 1741s | now though we head on over to Icebreaker |
| 1743s | where that far can actually come out and |
| 1745s | I'm actually starting to think that me |
| 1746s | for pocket are going to be pretty happy |
| 1747s | about this given the availability of the |
| 1749s | far and they're seeming uh Inc content |
| 1752s | with the sigma |
| 1753s | composition yeah I mean actually lime |
| 1756s | sticking onto the symmetra here giving |
| 1758s | them a lot of free reign to play that |
| 1760s | far up because they don't have that hit |
| 1762s | scan DPS you only have that may that can |
| 1764s | kind of spam the right clicks up at the |
| 1765s | sky but otherwise it's basically un |
| 1767s | tested so now they have the mercy in |
| 1769s | play as well going up over the top far |
| 1772s | trying to find some damage but it's emia |
| 1773s | first of all this far though is going to |
| 1776s | have so much Zone control even though |
| 1778s | yes you lose that Baptist this is far |
| 1780s | from over like you said there's |
| 1781s | basically nothing to deal with it on the |
| 1783s | other side we've seen players in |
| 1784s | contenders turkeys yazon and the like |
| 1786s | absolutely tear through back lines with |
| 1788s | this and you see the pressure alone is |
| 1789s | forcing the supports to both have to |
| 1791s | look at this far which means that lime |
| 1793s | isn't getting healed which means that |
| 1794s | Avery isn't getting healed you're losing |
| 1796s | on both fronts of the this fight if |
| 1798s | you're Fable and they're forced Away by |
| 1801s | the sheer massive rocket being thrown |
| 1803s | out that was really nice from Crystal |
| 1806s | rain and they're going to flip that |
| 1807s | point very very quickly Crystal rain |
| 1810s | very close to the rocket barrage already |
| 1812s | just from the damage Boost from the |
| 1814s | mercy and Haley is really quick to |
| 1815s | follow up onto that Valkyrie as well not |
| 1818s | going to be as easy though now you've |
| 1819s | got the Tracer soj on the other side a |
| 1821s | lot more hit scan availability for fable |
| 1824s | still nothing that directly takes this |
| 1825s | far out though let's be real it's done |
| 1827s | Ash it's not a widow it's not a Hanzo |
| 1829s | something with burst damage that can |
| 1831s | instantly take it down in order to take |
| 1833s | one shot at this far you have to charge |
| 1835s | up an entire rail gun with the soj so |
| 1838s | those shots are kind of few and far |
| 1840s | between this doesn't necessarily solve |
| 1842s | the problem of Crystal rain to |
| 1844s | me yeah I mean it's also you could |
| 1846s | potentially take out the Cassidy |
| 1848s | potentially take out the ash here but |
| 1850s | it's not as much Mobility with those two |
| 1853s | and now the rocket barrage comes through |
| 1855s | immediately Crystal rain goes down the |
| 1856s | resurrection could come out with the |
| 1859s | valkyrie from Haley now the amp Matrix |
| 1862s | on Z Panther's side trying to force them |
| 1864s | through they're able to take down Nemo |
| 1866s | from Arya though and Fable is should be |
| 1868s | able to flip that point over off the |
| 1870s | back of it yeah a little bit of an |
| 1872s | optimistic barrage from Crystal rain I |
| 1874s | do like a good ground barrage uh and I |
| 1876s | think with the assistant of the sigma |
| 1877s | Shield it might have looked a little bit |
| 1878s | better than it did but nevertheless a |
| 1880s | failure and execution is not a failure |
| 1882s | of the idea in total now kaca still have |
| 1885s | plenty left to go as well and they |
| 1887s | didn't really spend too many ultimates |
| 1888s | in that previous fight but neither did |
| 1889s | Fable and the big thing that Fable have |
| 1891s | going for them because they're running |
| 1892s | that Lucio instead of the mercy is a |
| 1893s | significantly more powerful ultimate in |
| 1895s | their back pocket in that sound barrier |
| 1897s | they will have a counter to the flux |
| 1899s | meow for pocket will |
| 1901s | not flux should come through now from |
| 1904s | Avery just to hold them off lots of |
| 1906s | damage going on to Kylie but they're |
| 1908s | able to stay alive noi Now using that |
| 1910s | sound barrier to try and hold on to the |
| 1912s | point but it's flipped over by Mal for |
| 1914s | pocket now Crystal bra seeing if they |
| 1917s | can get some fre R over the skies neemo |
| 1919s | falling from Al for pocket though Avery |
| 1921s | on a tear with this Sigma now Arya is |
| 1924s | the only one to fall from Fable and the |
| 1926s | rest of the team for M for pocket being |
| 1927s | chased down by Avery okay keep going yep |
| 1931s | just stagger them out yeah again |
| 1933s | considering the situation that they were |
| 1934s | in M pocket didn't play it badly they |
| 1936s | almost got away from the flux on SK but |
| 1938s | Nemo's health bar never really recovered |
| 1940s | from that 50% damage that it took and |
| 1942s | now still a similar position to last |
| 1944s | fight having to attack in with this far |
| 1946s | a lot more difficult than defending |
| 1949s | using those High walls around the point |
| 1951s | for cover is not nearly as easy when you |
| 1953s | need to move past them at some point in |
| 1955s | order to gain that space you see now |
| 1957s | Crystal rain moves forward into no man's |
| 1959s | land and subsequently Fable start |
| 1960s | hunting her |
| 1962s | down like blizard immediately coming |
| 1964s | through from line trying to freeze out |
| 1967s | Nemo we see Crystal rain however taking |
| 1969s | down C Panther while Haley falls into |
| 1971s | support for us before the amp Matrix |
| 1973s | comes out right before Z Panther went |
| 1975s | down though and it's allowing the rest |
| 1977s | of fable to just get their picks on |
| 1979s | through emth falling and there is no way |
| 1982s | that they're going to be able to touch |
| 1983s | this point really well done by Fable I |
| 1985s | mean the space control I think was the |
| 1987s | big thing for me understanding where |
| 1989s | those power positions are on the map in |
| 1990s | both of the maps that we played showed |
| 1993s | their ability to focus on two three |
| 1996s | things at once at times especially |
| 1997s | playing into Chrystal re far which did |
| 1999s | do a lot especially at the start of the |
| 2001s | map they showed an ability to not get |
| 2003s | too distracted they can throw one or two |
| 2005s | players at this duel and meanwhile stuff |
| 2007s | up the entire rest of the pump of Meer |
| 2011s | pocket in a choke point stopping them |
| 2013s | from getting into any real supportive |
| 2014s | position for that |
| 2016s | far yeah this was really nicely done |
| 2018s | good adjustments at the start of |
| 2020s | Icebreaker when we saw Crystal rain |
| 2022s | first come out with the far and the |
| 2024s | mercy pocket it was so nicely done to |
| 2026s | try and get early control and they were |
| 2028s | able to flip the point quite a few more |
| 2029s | times when they were able to play that |
| 2031s | far but the adjustments coming out with |
| 2033s | the hit scan with the sojourn uh Tracer |
| 2036s | for a second but eventually going back |
| 2038s | to the may just really really strong |
| 2039s | Ground Control yeah and I do wonder what |
| 2042s | would have happened had they not lost |
| 2044s | that fight where the ground barrage was |
| 2045s | went for because honestly again the |
| 2048s | sojourn is solid into the far you get |
| 2050s | one shot every once in a while but on |
| 2051s | that map in particular building rail gun |
| 2053s | is kind of no small feet because you're |
| 2054s | shooting a sigma Shield or there's just |
| 2056s | a bunch of walls in your way stopping |
| 2058s | you from actually being able to charge |
| 2059s | it so how they not won that fight I do |
| 2062s | worry a little bit about what Fable |
| 2064s | would have actually had in terms of |
| 2066s | things that could deal with that far |
| 2067s | which very realistically could be a |
| 2069s | thing as we head over to our next map |
| 2070s | type I believe it's hybrid Kings Row and |
| 2072s | Midtown are on the table in terms of |
| 2075s | picks from ya for pocket what do you |
| 2076s | what are you thinking they want to lean |
| 2079s | towards on to that next map Kings Row |
| 2082s | versus m well I mean Kings Row does lend |
| 2084s | well into those longer range poke |
| 2087s | compositions and like you said Arya |
| 2089s | really good on the sojourn and Fable |
| 2091s | winning that last M I feel like meow for |
| 2093s | pocket might actually want to lean a bit |
| 2095s | more towards Midtown where you can play |
| 2097s | Closer brawl compositions that far might |
| 2099s | be a little bit more viable as well you |
| 2102s | can play it on Kings Row but I feel like |
| 2104s | on Kings Row you're really kind of |
| 2105s | looking at those poke compositions a |
| 2107s | little bit more especially on that first |
| 2108s | point capture yeah the opportunities I |
| 2111s | think here are are kind of similar for |
| 2113s | both Maps the difference that you see |
| 2115s | especially like the playability of far |
| 2116s | isn't much between the two of them |
| 2117s | there's like a little room on each map |
| 2120s | if you wanted to try it but I'm not sure |
| 2122s | it's something they want to really stick |
| 2123s | to they showed us that they were willing |
| 2124s | to play the Bastion I'm sure they've got |
| 2126s | a symmetra a soier a available to them |
| 2128s | if they want to swap over to that and I |
| 2130s | think that's more the route where we're |
| 2131s | going to end up going with these two |
| 2132s | maps being in the pool regardless of |
| 2134s | which one gets picked I think it's going |
| 2135s | to be a bit of a change of strategy from |
| 2137s | meow for pocket they've got the far they |
| 2139s | could lean into it if they really wanted |
| 2140s | to they did see some success but by and |
| 2142s | large I think they're going to try and |
| 2143s | find this mirror because they did find |
| 2145s | some Success With It on the first map |
| 2147s | and I do think that they have what it |
| 2148s | takes in terms of fight planning ability |
| 2150s | and execution to actually get it done |
| 2152s | it's just been that Fable or that one |
| 2154s | step ahead each time yeah the pacing has |
| 2158s | been a little bit good and I'm wondering |
| 2160s | if they're able to like snowball these |
| 2162s | Maps forward as well I feel like on |
| 2164s | Midtown it's really easy to lose that |
| 2166s | first point defense and all of a sudden |
| 2168s | you have that cart almost under the |
| 2170s | bridge and almost that second point so |
| 2173s | let's see what's going to come out from |
| 2174s | them it's going to be Kings Row so we're |
| 2177s | looking at that map pick for meford |
| 2179s | pocket of course it's going to be King's |
| 2181s | Row like midtown's pretty and all but |
| 2183s | it's Kings Row you pick it when you see |
| 2185s | it there's there there was no question |
| 2187s | ever about what map was being picked |
| 2189s | here and again it plays well for the |
| 2190s | sigma composition I think this map Pool |
| 2192s | in general just plays kind of into the |
| 2194s | metac comp particularly well so the |
| 2196s | switches that you can make aren't |
| 2198s | particularly significant there's a |
| 2200s | chance we see the kind of spaghetti |
| 2202s | thrown at the wall to see what sticks |
| 2204s | and we just see a dive composition I |
| 2206s | again this comes less to the map type |
| 2210s | less to the match and more to the actual |
| 2212s | format right now because best of Threes |
| 2214s | we were talking about at the beginning |
| 2215s | of the broadcast they go so so fast and |
| 2218s | I have seen teams that should make it |
| 2220s | far in tournaments get wiped off the |
| 2222s | face of the planet in a matter of like |
| 2223s | two Swiss rounds of best of three |
| 2225s | because if you don't make the |
| 2226s | adjustments quickly and drastically at |
| 2229s | that at the right times the series can |
| 2231s | go Ary really fast and so there's an |
| 2232s | opportunity from me for pcka to |
| 2234s | recognize hey look we don't think even |
| 2236s | with minor adjustments small switches in |
| 2239s | the DPS role that this Sigma thing is |
| 2241s | going to work out for us we're out of |
| 2242s | lives at the best of three you get one |
| 2244s | more chance at this they could just |
| 2246s | break out full d in a situation like |
| 2248s | this because their backs are against the |
| 2250s | wall so early on and I appreciate it |
| 2252s | when a team is willing to do that |
| 2253s | because again it shows an understanding |
| 2255s | of this best of three format that it is |
| 2257s | very different in terms of the |
| 2259s | adjustments you make to a best of five |
| 2262s | one thing about kings's row is that it |
| 2263s | is a hybrid map so we do have the |
| 2266s | possibility here of having a tie it |
| 2269s | technically is first to two quote |
| 2271s | unquote and a hybrid map it's very |
| 2274s | unlikely you don't see it very often but |
| 2276s | there's the possibility of having a draw |
| 2279s | and if we if we get a draw if we get a |
| 2282s | draw today tala I will come on on one of |
| 2284s | the other days that I'm not even |
| 2285s | supposed to be on it's been 10 minutes |
| 2287s | eating a Chipotle burrito on broadcast |
| 2289s | okay you're going to I will I will just |
| 2291s | sit there and eat a burrito in the back |
| 2293s | of the broadcast like I like promise if |
| 2296s | we see one draw today pinky swear it's |
| 2299s | been so I I pinky swear it's been so un |
| 2301s | prevalent in OverWatch 2 it took him |
| 2303s | what like 3 months or something to get |
| 2304s | one in the OverWatch League it took |
| 2305s | contenders oh my God it took contenders |
| 2307s | like 9 years to get a map draw but |
| 2310s | imagine if we get one today it would be |
| 2312s | a miracle but you know what that's what |
| 2314s | calling all heroes is all about so Kings |
| 2317s | bro will be the the site of our maybe |
| 2320s | final showdown here from meow for pocket |
| 2322s | unless they can pull off something |
| 2323s | drastic the more I think about it the |
| 2324s | more I just wanted to go dive I want to |
| 2326s | say screw it I want to say just but I |
| 2327s | feel like it's not the Winston dive |
| 2329s | though it's the doomfist dive that you |
| 2331s | have to watch out for because doomfist |
| 2333s | may be a little bit less survivable than |
| 2335s | Winston but if you have have that solid |
| 2338s | uh solid backline then you should be |
| 2340s | able to keep that wind uh that doomfist |
| 2342s | up and playing really well into the |
| 2343s | sigma as well which we know is Avery's |
| 2345s | pocket pick we know Avery is very |
| 2347s | comfortable on the sigma and Fable seems |
| 2349s | to be really comfortable just going |
| 2351s | around and playing around that Sigma |
| 2353s | composition with the sojourn Arya is so |
| 2355s | comfortable with and this backline from |
| 2357s | Fable also very very strong and very |
| 2360s | survivable on the Lucio and Baptist I I |
| 2363s | have to check the stats but I'm not sure |
| 2365s | if fopi and the panther have died like |
| 2367s | at all it's maybe one or two across the |
| 2369s | entire Series so far they've been |
| 2371s | virtually Untouchable |
| 2374s | at that's a bit of a problem for him but |
| 2376s | as we were talking about there is the |
| 2378s | opportunity for that far Crystal Reign |
| 2379s | easing it Haley could hello use this |
| 2383s | life Weaver instead of the mercy to |
| 2385s | pocket the far they're using it to get |
| 2387s | the sigma up to The High Ground oh cute |
| 2389s | little cute little shield for the |
| 2391s | Widowmaker I'm here for |
| 2392s | it yeah we're just going to we're going |
| 2395s | to take that Widow up well they they |
| 2397s | knew what was coming they're not going |
| 2399s | to risk that and it's just the Hanzo |
| 2401s | again I |
| 2403s | mean back to the mercy we saw the life |
| 2406s | Weaver just for a second to get up to |
| 2408s | that high ground but otherwise it seems |
| 2410s | like pushing past this choke point |
| 2411s | though very very rested from Al |
| 2414s | pocket I mean that's the name of the |
| 2416s | game right get the far up the hotel and |
| 2418s | then once far has the hotel she can use |
| 2420s | it for cover so you'll see now the |
| 2422s | statue the hotel both kind of serve as |
| 2425s | vertical covers for her to |
| 2427s | Mo Le right around need to find a way to |
| 2430s | get on top of this so though and that's |
| 2432s | the big problem they need to solve in |
| 2433s | these upcoming moments but Kylie doesn't |
| 2435s | make it any |
| 2436s | better oh my God wait Haley was just |
| 2439s | resurrecting inside of that |
| 2441s | so just the soj damage and dies to it |
| 2444s | instead of getting that Resurrection off |
| 2446s | Fable getting a lot more space now to be |
| 2448s | able to fully meow for pocket back into |
| 2450s | their spawn yeah the big thing isn't |
| 2452s | necessarily just the fight win it's not |
| 2453s | just the time it's the ultimate |
| 2454s | Advantage they've garnered in the |
| 2455s | meantime you see about 20 20 to 30% on |
| 2457s | average ahead of me Al for pocket save |
| 2459s | for that far that's building up a |
| 2461s | barrage relatively |
| 2467s | quickly now |
| 2469s | looking oh okay that was really nice |
| 2472s | shot and now Arya going down they have |
| 2475s | to find some way to get the damage out |
| 2477s | deal with this far up above but meow for |
| 2479s | pocket they have Kylie on the ti ground |
| 2481s | spam shot way and now contesting over |
| 2484s | the rocket barrage coming through |
| 2486s | Crystal r doesn't really get much done |
| 2488s | with that and it seems like they should |
| 2489s | be able to P going to come back for fun |
| 2492s | Arya Arya had what what I like to call |
| 2495s | losing the Hanzo Lottery there you just |
| 2497s | happen to be like crossing a sight line |
| 2499s | the Hanzo the Hanzo doesn't care Who's |
| 2501s | down there they're just lobing arrows |
| 2503s | hoping to hit something and Arya |
| 2504s | unfortunately caught it with their mouth |
| 2507s | which happens from time to time mfra |
| 2509s | pocket though now have a big opportunity |
| 2511s | to step in they've got a lot of |
| 2512s | ultimates but they need to kind of |
| 2513s | string them along pull out that sound |
| 2515s | barrier early from |
| 2519s | fopi fopi still building up to it while |
| 2523s | the valkyrie already available but a |
| 2524s | little bit less powerful of an Al really |
| 2526s | valuable for that is Crystal rainbow |
| 2529s | taking down Arya again once again the |
| 2531s | DPS line now the first fall and go for |
| 2534s | the gravitic flux there is no way to |
| 2536s | sustain fa through this bobia need to |
| 2538s | come in somehow with the sound barrier |
| 2540s | but it's going to be the amp Matrix this |
| 2543s | going to shred through the health Avery |
| 2545s | still able to take down Kylie they weave |
| 2547s | in and out through this barrier the |
| 2548s | regroup from B support line is just so |
| 2551s | strong Haley has to find a way to keep |
| 2554s | the health up emia going down and there |
| 2556s | is not a lot of strong feeling to come |
| 2558s | through from that Mercy Arya spamming |
| 2560s | down Nemo now and me for once |
| 2563s | again falling short of this tap again |
| 2566s | some really impressive stuff from Avery |
| 2567s | just like disengaging the blizzard all |
| 2569s | the way back on onar Peninsula when the |
| 2572s | flux came out when the aggressive play |
| 2574s | came in for me for pocket Avery comes in |
| 2576s | counter flug holds that space forward |
| 2578s | and then regroups with the supports to |
| 2580s | push through hotel and find the backline |
| 2582s | really amazing stuff but now they've got |
| 2584s | to deal with the rest of the ultimate of |
| 2585s | barage namely of which picks off two |
| 2587s | there's a chance to get back in with |
| 2589s | this overclock though yeah the disruptor |
| 2591s | shot trying to Zone off now getting rid |
| 2594s | of the immortality field already forcing |
| 2595s | the cool down they haven't quite gotten |
| 2597s | rid of Nemo just yet and Arya is low on |
| 2599s | The High Ground ging a lot of time |
| 2602s | though with the rail gun however kyy is |
| 2604s | going to make sure to clear out that |
| 2606s | choke point they should be able to get |
| 2607s | at least one tick here but there's a |
| 2609s | possibility of the re-engage especially |
| 2610s | since you still have bopi with the sound |
| 2612s | barrier in the back pocket blizzard |
| 2614s | comes through immediately and now so |
| 2616s | does the sound barrier Nemo no place to |
| 2618s | run no place to hide and we have already |
| 2620s | a tank down from the AL for pocket now |
| 2622s | the rest of them should fall apart like |
| 2624s | Domino's Haley falling right after |
| 2626s | Crystal rain and now it's The High |
| 2628s | Ground contention which lime is going to |
| 2630s | have no problem getting up to they have |
| 2633s | to try and keep the overtime alive |
| 2635s | there's a touch there but the team |
| 2637s | entirely falling there is no possibility |
| 2640s | it is zero ticks from meow for pocket |
| 2643s | and Fable have set them up quite win |
| 2645s | condition yeah and you see just the |
| 2648s | difference in terms of compositions that |
| 2649s | comes out there at the end right it's |
| 2651s | not just a a difference of oh we're |
| 2652s | we're running something different it's |
| 2655s | look the far Mercy comes at a cost and |
| 2657s | that cost is expensive sound barrier is |
| 2659s | one of the best ultimates in the game |
| 2660s | and meower pocket kind of being down a |
| 2663s | super powerful ultimate in terms of the |
| 2665s | ultimate economy all the time has hurt |
| 2667s | them a number of times already in in the |
| 2670s | factor of two maps and there at the end |
| 2672s | you see it that sound Berry blizzard |
| 2674s | engage is just brutal there's no way you |
| 2676s | get away from it now me out for pocket |
| 2678s | of try got to try and defend a |
| 2680s | 52.7% |
| 2682s | take it's a it's a Hail Mary for sure |
| 2685s | for the team in |
| 2686s | Orange it's a tough one for me out |
| 2690s | pocket for sure while Fable they are |
| 2692s | sitting so comfortably and map up all |
| 2695s | they need to do is get get those two |
| 2697s | ticks on the board and then they win |
| 2700s | this one over I said there was a |
| 2702s | possibility of a draw but I don't think |
| 2704s | that possibility is there anymore they |
| 2707s | want to win this one out clean I'm |
| 2709s | trying to ask everybody it's taking no |
| 2712s | prisoners for fa which honestly makes a |
| 2713s | whole lot of sense in terms |
| 2715s | of what this means for them this Swiss |
| 2717s | stage I was talking about if they just |
| 2719s | get to the bracket if they just get a |
| 2721s | little bit of the way through it they |
| 2723s | secure their spot in the |
| 2724s | championship they're looking at things |
| 2727s | quickly moving out on the soier May |
| 2729s | nothing new for this team but whether or |
| 2730s | not they're able to deal with this Hanzo |
| 2731s | far the immense amount of poke damage |
| 2733s | coming at them will be the question they |
| 2735s | have two options one poke against it try |
| 2737s | to duel out those DPS heroes or put all |
| 2740s | of the focus on Nemo and push this Sigma |
| 2743s | back where he came |
| 2746s | from line needs to keep this Sigma alive |
| 2749s | Arya already falling very low but Kylie |
| 2752s | taking down lime first apry forcing the |
| 2754s | position forward trying to get them back |
| 2756s | back and the immortality field comes out |
| 2758s | to save a now while the Shields coming |
| 2760s | through as they back off and disengage |
| 2763s | waiting for that next push as the cool |
| 2765s | Downs come back Arya however going down |
| 2768s | Z Panther should be able to get some |
| 2769s | damage down from the back line using the |
| 2772s | moon boots and lime now switching over |
| 2773s | the echo that was really nice stuff by |
| 2775s | Nemo absorbed the pressure at first |
| 2778s | waited for the rest of fable to go dive |
| 2779s | the back line and then pushed Avery off |
| 2781s | of the point perfect read of the ebb and |
| 2783s | flow of the fight and wi the focuses on |
| 2785s | that Sigma but it's not stopping anytime |
| 2787s | soon yeah now we have that Echo to put a |
| 2790s | bit more pressure up from above as well |
| 2792s | and Arya switching over to the ash |
| 2794s | instead dealing with this Fara quite |
| 2797s | well in the air when you have that hit |
| 2799s | DPS you already see Crystal rain having |
| 2801s | to go back valkur coming through as the |
| 2803s | amp Matrix from Emily looking to save |
| 2806s | off the pressure and force a bit of |
| 2807s | positioning as well they're trying to |
| 2809s | dive into the hotel noi going down |
| 2811s | that's going to stall out people a bit |
| 2812s | longer yeah the ash deals with the far |
| 2815s | but it doesn't deal with the h that kind |
| 2816s | of does the exact opposite but they |
| 2818s | don't have to deal with either of them |
| 2819s | it's the sigma going down Nemo's gone |
| 2821s | and the house of Cs begins to |
| 2823s | crumble yeah without Nemo this is such a |
| 2826s | tough fight suddenly the immortality |
| 2828s | field already out and we have lime just |
| 2831s | morphing into that far with the |
| 2833s | duplicate seeing if they can find a |
| 2835s | little bit of damage here we have |
| 2837s | Crystal rain trying to go for the rocket |
| 2839s | barrage but it is not enough Emily has |
| 2841s | taken out of the range of the |
| 2842s | immortality field Nemo looking to try |
| 2844s | and get something done with Ball but it |
| 2847s | is not enough a with a clean 20 two |
| 2851s | ticks on Kings Row are able to win out |
| 2854s | the first round of switch Swiss stage I |
| 2858s | mean it was a nice attempt at the ho |
| 2859s | they got a couple of clean fight wins in |
| 2861s | there and honestly I think again their |
| 2863s | their recognition of win conditions |
| 2865s | their plans coming into the fight were |
| 2867s | both really good for meow for pocket at |
| 2870s | the end of the day I just think it came |
| 2871s | down to execution and mechanics where |
| 2873s | Fable just Rise Above the Rest and let's |
| 2875s | be real with ourselves you look at Fable |
| 2876s | roster you expect them to out mechanic |
| 2879s | out execute most teams |
| 2882s | here they have a lot of added Firepower |
| 2885s | between last major and this one I mean |
| 2888s | Fable kind of not really the hugest name |
| 2891s | in the last major but in the minor we |
| 2893s | saw a lot of them playing together Avery |
| 2896s | especially being kind of the core of |
| 2898s | this Fable roster and now with the added |
| 2900s | fire power of Kopi and you have Arya |
| 2903s | obviously on a tear as well it is just |
| 2906s | really good really good stuff out of |
| 2909s | this roster and I'm really excited to |
| 2911s | see who is going to be our Chipotle MVP |
| 2914s | for this match we have one for every |
| 2917s | single match up of today now we'll find |
| 2919s | out who that mvp is coming up just after |
| 2921s | this break you guys stay |

| 3125s | welcome back we have just completed the |
| 3127s | first round of Swiss stages for day one |
| 3129s | of the radiant Heroes major 3 and we |
| 3132s | just saw a banger match from Fable |
| 3134s | versus meow vers for pocket where Fable |
| 3138s | were able to take it 20 on the first two |
| 3141s | maps of Antarctic Peninsula and Kings |
| 3143s | Row looking at the match replays |
| 3145s | definitely pretty intense on Fable side |
| 3148s | and there were some moments of |
| 3149s | Brilliance coming out from malur pocket |
| 3152s | as well but at the end of the day it |
| 3154s | just seemed like Fable they were able to |
| 3157s | claim the victory yeah the the |
| 3159s | coordination was there from y for pocket |
| 3161s | but it was as well for fable and that |
| 3163s | individual capability we see out of the |
| 3164s | dpsm tank line of fable really shown |
| 3168s | through today ARA Li and Avery were all |
| 3172s | immense problems in terms of damage |
| 3174s | output and creat pressure on the |
| 3176s | opposing side to the point that MEF for |
| 3177s | Paka just couldn't deal with it and of |
| 3178s | course you know credit where it's due to |
| 3180s | the support line of fable but I think |
| 3181s | their job was relatively easy today in |
| 3183s | terms of the fact that there was just no |
| 3185s | pressure on them thear was shooting at |
| 3187s | them every once in a while but outside |
| 3188s | of that it was a pretty straightforward |
| 3191s | help out with the damage for the Baptist |
| 3192s | to keep the team alive on Lucio but that |
| 3194s | leads us to our MVP quick little drum |
| 3197s | roll it is of course Avery I mean who |
| 3201s | else when you talk about raw damage |
| 3203s | output and maintaining I think what was |
| 3206s | basically Perfect Space against the |
| 3208s | opposing tank you saw every little bit |
| 3212s | of Sigma that you wanted to today out of |
| 3213s | Avery and I think they're going to be |
| 3215s | very scary moving forward in the |
| 3216s | tournament I mean one death in six |
| 3219s | minutes I mean credit to the support |
| 3220s | line as well here but it was such good |
| 3222s | spacing especially in that very first |
| 3225s | round when we saw the engage come |
| 3227s | through it looked like all was lost when |
| 3229s | the entire DPS line of fable went down |
| 3232s | Avery was able to disengage on that push |
| 3235s | on through from y for pocket even while |
| 3237s | separated from the support line from |
| 3239s | fopi and uh pan and they were able to |
| 3243s | get through the hotel and re-engage |
| 3245s | without even a single tick and that was |
| 3246s | just artfully masterfully done by Avery |
| 3249s | yeah they did it time and time again |
| 3251s | regardless of situation defending |
| 3252s | attacking on the map whether they were |
| 3254s | taking space or trying just to hold it I |
| 3256s | feel like there's a really great |
| 3257s | understanding of the ebb and flow and |
| 3258s | not just of the composition but also in |
| 3261s | terms of how the composition plays into |
| 3264s | other ones CU I think it's one thing to |
| 3265s | know the meta match up versus The Meta |
| 3267s | matchup it's another thing to be ready |
| 3269s | for a far to be thrown at you just |
| 3271s | completely at random and deal with it |
| 3272s | perfectly like Avery did so some real |
| 3274s | credit do but there were five amazing |
| 3276s | players on Fable side and one of them |
| 3278s | being Arya who we're going to talk to |
| 3279s | now in our Chipotle Real Talk |
| 3282s | interview so hello Arya are you with us |
| 3286s | how are you oh my God I'm with you guys |
| 3287s | in the room hello hello oh my God hello |
| 3291s | welcome so that was a great match that |
| 3294s | you just played how are you feeling |
| 3297s | pretty good uh we felt really confident |
| 3299s | going into it feeling confident for the |
| 3300s | for the next two |
| 3302s | weekends yeah I mean it seemed like you |
| 3304s | guys were pretty confident going in just |
| 3306s | because of the meta I think you of all |
| 3308s | people feel pretty comfortable with this |
| 3310s | thing shift towards soier and just as |
| 3312s | major three hits that's got to feel |
| 3313s | pretty good no yeah I mean people were |
| 3316s | playing Bastion still last uh last |
| 3319s | tournament and I was still playing |
| 3320s | sojourn and doing well so this is even |
| 3324s | better |
| 3326s | yeah for sure and I mean you said you're |
| 3328s | feeling pretty confident for this |
| 3330s | weekend and the next one I'm wondering |
| 3332s | is there anyone that you are really |
| 3334s | excited to see or really want to play in |
| 3336s | this tournament thus far uh yes it is um |
| 3341s | what is what they call themselves this |
| 3342s | tournament Michael wave I need them to |
| 3345s | go down I must defeat them they're |
| 3348s | evil Michel okay okay you're now mortal |
| 3352s | enemies we have it on broadcast don't |
| 3354s | worry yes |
| 3356s | okay so are you are you like the |
| 3358s | protagonist here or are they the villain |
| 3360s | or are did you hear that yes tala that |
| 3362s | was not a that was not a that was a very |
| 3364s | evil yes they are evil for sure evil |
| 3368s | mastermind okay |
| 3370s | okay no but I mean this tournament for |
| 3373s | fable I I think is very important it not |
| 3375s | only secures your spot in the |
| 3376s | championship I believe you have to do I |
| 3378s | think kind of just on par for what we |
| 3380s | expect out of you uh to get that |
| 3382s | qualification spot into the championship |
| 3385s | as well there's an amazing prize pool |
| 3387s | and a meta that suits you I want to know |
| 3389s | what drives you in particular Arya for |
| 3392s | this particular major is it the |
| 3393s | qualification is it the prize pool is it |
| 3395s | trying to play well in a meta where you |
| 3397s | feel like you can really show your |
| 3398s | skills off at their best what is it yeah |
| 3401s | I mean for sure I I love showing off and |
| 3403s | showing everyone what I'm capable of um |
| 3406s | but most of all I just like empowering |
| 3409s | um you know all of the underrepresented |
| 3412s | G genders through the tournament and so |
| 3414s | something like this is always really |
| 3415s | nice to to compete |
| 3417s | in that is really awesome to hear and is |
| 3421s | there anything that you would really |
| 3422s | love to play this tournament that might |
| 3424s | not be in the meta I know for your squad |
| 3427s | specifically you kind of have it playing |

| 5048s | bit of an extended break but no worries |
| 5050s | we are right back with the round two of |
| 5053s | Swiss stages over here in the radiant |
| 5056s | Heroes major 3 I am epitomes once |
| 5058s | against joined by door and we are so |
| 5060s | excited for this next matchup that's |
| 5063s | right I mean we're getting two of the |
| 5064s | top teams here at calling all heroes how |
| 5066s | could you not be excited for drainers |
| 5069s | versus Michael wave two teams that I |
| 5071s | think not only are exciting for their |
| 5073s | position in the standings but also what |
| 5075s | they bring to the table in terms of |
| 5077s | things we'll actually get to see in game |
| 5079s | this should be a whole lot of fun yeah |
| 5081s | you might have heard Michael wave's name |
| 5084s | over in the last matchup where we heard |
| 5086s | Fable win and Arya saying that she |
| 5089s | thought Michael wave they were the |
| 5091s | villains in this story so I'm excited to |
| 5093s | see what they're going to be bringing to |
| 5094s | the table drainers on the other side |
| 5097s | currently third place in the standings |
| 5099s | they made it very far as well in the |
| 5102s | last calling all heroes minor so this is |
| 5105s | an exciting one yeah no matter who you |
| 5108s | consider the the villains in the story |
| 5110s | both of these teams are kind of |
| 5111s | non-conformist when it comes to the meta |
| 5114s | as well on one hand a team that wants to |
| 5116s | play Ry and nothing else on the other |
| 5118s | hand a team that let's play something |
| 5119s | that is I mean arguably a Teensy bit |
| 5121s | more meta in the doomfist but still very |
| 5124s | far off from what we've actually gotten |
| 5125s | to see today which is Sigma Sigma |
| 5127s | Sigma yeah Sigma thus far but we're |
| 5130s | switching things up we're getting things |
| 5132s | really spicy for this second match up |
| 5134s | today looking at both of these rosters |
| 5137s | as well it's going to be a really |
| 5140s | exciting one they have so much Firepower |
| 5142s | on both sides but also the standings |
| 5144s | thus far in the Swiss stages let's go |
| 5147s | and take a look at the specific roster |
| 5149s | of microwave death on DPS Zoe back |
| 5152s | backing them up Maron tank is somebody |
| 5155s | to be feared maybe I I don't think |
| 5157s | there's any odds we get a look at the |
| 5159s | hog rework it's just not been proven |
| 5161s | particularly competitive but should it |
| 5163s | be there Mario's the person to watch |
| 5165s | ajmr and wi back that lineup up with one |
| 5168s | of the most impressive support lines I |
| 5170s | think in all of calling all heroes those |
| 5171s | two are going to be a Powerhouse |
| 5174s | backline yeah this is a really |
| 5176s | impressive support line and I actually |
| 5178s | remember when speaking to Mari before |
| 5181s | she said that she really enjoyed playing |
| 5183s | the sigma and like the hog I feel like |
| 5185s | is a little bit troll but this team |
| 5188s | they're definitely going to be bringing |
| 5190s | us a treat on the other side of drainers |
| 5193s | they are what we probably know as the |
| 5195s | Reinhardt team thus far they really are |
| 5199s | committed to that Rin braw yeah drainers |
| 5201s | recently put up a pretty solid |
| 5203s | performance in the flash Ops tournament |
| 5206s | got to watch a little bit of their run |
| 5207s | they did fantastically there lining this |
| 5210s | team up par Senna backing that up |
| 5213s | Kindred still supporting this team |
| 5216s | Kindred somebody you should absolutely |
| 5217s | keep your eyes on Zep and Lane oh my God |
| 5219s | that's a whole lot of hog oh wow did |
| 5223s | they I think they they were really |
| 5225s | trying it would have it would have |
| 5227s | looked really great if we could have |
| 5228s | just like you know Kindred like the |
| 5230s | junker Queen in the middle and you have |
| 5232s | like the hogs on all sides yep whole lot |
| 5235s | of Australia in that roster too you know |
| 5238s | they're all from junker town you know |
| 5240s | how it is yeah yeah the junker roster |
| 5244s | and drainers I mean this roster the |
| 5246s | heroes that they're teasing here a |
| 5248s | little bit troll but I think when you |
| 5250s | see what they are going to be actually |
| 5252s | running in the match it is going to be |
| 5254s | really impressive and definitely I mean |
| 5257s | it's not quite three Hogs and a junkrat |
| 5260s | and a junker Queen but is something that |
| 5262s | you probably will have the similar |
| 5264s | reaction to yeah and for me what I'm |
| 5267s | looking at we talked about the tanks |
| 5268s | being a little bit less than normal in |
| 5270s | this match up at times but when you have |
| 5272s | have powerhouses like Kindred and Mari |
| 5274s | tanking for these teams I start to look |
| 5276s | at the backline what can we offer up to |
| 5279s | those tanks to actually get them through |
| 5280s | these fights Zep and Lane are going to |
| 5282s | have their work cut out for them because |
| 5284s | again that backline for the opposing |
| 5286s | side especially with Wile on it going be |
| 5288s | real tough business to deal with yeah |
| 5290s | lots of competitive experience on both |
| 5293s | sides especially in the tank and when |
| 5295s | tank is such a powerful role in |
| 5297s | OverWatch 2 especially in this Sigma |
| 5299s | meta it's really so dependent on how |
| 5301s | well you can play quote unquote Sigma |
| 5304s | but then when you have these two teams |
| 5305s | both kind of wanting to switch it up |
| 5307s | it's a lot more tough a lot more |
| 5309s | competitive yeah and I think the map's |
| 5311s | going to bode pretty well for that we're |
| 5312s | starting things off on Busan here in |
| 5314s | round two of the Swiss stage and I think |
| 5316s | that just opens up all kinds of |
| 5318s | possibilities for fun compositions |
| 5319s | whether you want to run a dive whether |
| 5320s | you want to run a rush there's I I think |
| 5323s | plenty of flexibility brought to the |
| 5324s | table by Busan as well as map Variety in |
| 5327s | those actual submaps that offer |
| 5329s | abilities for you to run whatever you |
| 5330s | want or try and kind of focus on one map |
| 5334s | and maybe Flex on another over to the |
| 5336s | other team's |
| 5339s | composition just I think that Busan is |
| 5341s | such a good start for both of these |
| 5343s | teams and really seeing if you're going |
| 5345s | to be running that brawl composition and |
| 5348s | on the other side the dive and I think |
| 5351s | with definitely a backline like the one |
| 5353s | that you have for Michael wave you can |
| 5356s | play a dive so well especially since you |
| 5358s | know that backline is going to be well |
| 5360s | protected and very survivable it's not |
| 5362s | going to be as much of a weak point as |
| 5363s | it may be if you have a weaker support |
| 5365s | line yeah and I mean there is one one |
| 5368s | mild concern and it look look it's as |
| 5370s | mild as it comes here for microwave but |
| 5372s | I don't know if you've heard Legend |
| 5374s | exactly of wickah Wednesday but it isn't |
| 5377s | wiah |
| 5378s | Wednesday that's important Wick a 100% |
| 5382s | win rate on Wednesdays in contenders |
| 5384s | outside of Wednesdays total crap shoot |
| 5387s | nobody knows not wickle Wednesday so I |
| 5389s | think Michael wave may have a little bit |
| 5391s | of a tougher time here against against |
| 5392s | drainers and uh wiah in particular has |
| 5395s | got to make sure they've got their |
| 5396s | thinking cap on because she is going to |
| 5398s | be probably locking in a fair bit of |
| 5400s | Lucio here and is going to be important |
| 5402s | to actually keeping this team moving |
| 5404s | forward wo with Saturday W wo W water |
| 5408s | day W water day the W stands for w it's |
| 5413s | a stretch but may but maybe it |
| 5416s | works uh well it's raining so Wick a |
| 5419s | water day okay okay |
| 5423s | bars we're we're just bringing through |
| 5426s | all the all the days of the week okay |
| 5428s | any of them have the name starting with |
| 5430s | s let's just think for put our thinking |
| 5432s | caps on for a second w a one day I don't |
| 5435s | know like we could just put it at the |
| 5437s | beginning of all of them if we really if |
| 5438s | we really want to we can just make that |
| 5440s | happen exactly maybe you could also say |
| 5444s | maybe it's a w |
| 5445s | weekend oh oh that's a good one and then |
| 5449s | there's wi week days as well so now all |
| 5450s | the days just belong to Wi |
| 5453s | I think pressure we're letting her get |
| 5455s | too powerful we got to slow this down we |
| 5457s | yeah we got to just that's why she like |
| 5459s | government assigned |
| 5461s | Wednesdays oh we got big stuff coming up |
| 5463s | this map though wickah being one of them |
| 5465s | but of course alongside Busan got some |
| 5468s | special stuff in tuned if you guys are |
| 5469s | feeling hungry I know it's lunchtime in |
| 5471s | certain parts of the US make sure you |
| 5473s | get your free 2,000 Chipotle Burritos |
| 5475s | that's not 2,000 to one person you guys |
| 5478s | I need you to share appropriately but |
| 5480s | the bowls and burritos are out now |
| 5482s | texture R |
| 5484s | a232 to |
| 5486s | 888222 to get your shot at those 2,000 |
| 5489s | free Chipotle burritos and bus will be |
| 5491s | giving them out throughout the stream |
| 5493s | both today tomorrow the days in the next |
| 5496s | rounds as well of the actual bracket |
| 5498s | itself so do not miss out on any of the |
| 5500s | streams especially if you're feeling |
| 5502s | hungry and |
| 5503s | lucky I mean it's around lunchtime over |
| 5506s | here on the West Coast and if you're |
| 5508s | looking for a burrito lunch this is the |
| 5510s | perfect opportunity so go go ahead and |
| 5512s | text that as soon as possible so you can |
| 5515s | get your free burrito from Chipotle |
| 5518s | especially if you're a Chipotle lover |
| 5519s | this is like such a philanthropist |
| 5521s | OverWatch broadcast we're giving away |
| 5523s | Contender skins there's like the drops |
| 5525s | going on there's like battle pass XP I'm |
| 5527s | not sure if that's |
| 5528s | on and then you get a burrito check |
| 5530s | under your seats there's like keys to a |
| 5532s | car or something but there's no actual |
| 5533s | car it's just keys and now we actually |
| 5536s | get some good OverWatch to go alongside |
| 5538s | it I'm hoping for big stuff here as we |
| 5539s | start off on Bo on the question is of |
| 5541s | course what sub map we start on I don't |
| 5543s | think it matters too much for these two |
| 5545s | teams I think they are intent on running |
| 5547s | exactly what they are intent on running |
| 5549s | regardless of the the particularities of |
| 5551s | the situation but maybe we can change |
| 5554s | the texture of that in terms of the DPS |
| 5555s | run alongside it possibly the support |
| 5557s | line of may change depending on which |
| 5560s | map we get as well I think the big thing |
| 5562s | to look for is likely whether wika is |
| 5565s | running on luciao or possibly something |
| 5567s | to kind of support the other support so |
| 5569s | to speak in like a b is always a |
| 5571s | possibility as well well as we get a |
| 5573s | little pause here coming into game |
| 5574s | number |
| 5574s | one y pause right out the gate but |
| 5578s | giving us a lot more time to speculate |
| 5580s | about what these team compositions are |
| 5582s | going to look like but it seems like we |
| 5585s | are going to be starting out on no this |
| 5587s | is still just the flyover sorry I fooled |
| 5590s | myself but for the compositions if we're |
| 5592s | looking at dive I think we still are |
| 5594s | going to see that sojourn just because |
| 5596s | of how much teams are favoring that one |
| 5598s | shot potential but for the secondary DPS |
| 5600s | it's going to be have to be someone that |
| 5601s | is is going to be able to follow up on a |
| 5604s | dive if they're playing it so I don't |
| 5606s | think it's going to be that may as a |
| 5607s | secondary I would love a little bit of |
| 5610s | echo for either of these teams into the |
| 5612s | doomfist into Ryan into junker Queen and |
| 5615s | whatever your your brawl preference |
| 5616s | preference is eeko is fantastic at |
| 5619s | applying a ton of pressure to those |
| 5621s | tanks and the focusing beam is kind of |
| 5623s | the name of the game in that regard once |
| 5624s | they drop below half HP I don't care who |
| 5626s | you've got in your backline whether or |
| 5628s | not it's Wick a Wednesday that Tank's |
| 5630s | getting beamed down and it is a big |
| 5632s | problem if you've got a player who's got |
| 5633s | it in their back pocket Echo can |
| 5636s | basically shred down any tank at a |
| 5638s | certain HP thresold I think there's a |
| 5641s | possibility that we see the Genji as |
| 5643s | well but I don't know do you think that |
| 5645s | they're going to take out that good old |
| 5647s | Tracer Sombra at any point in time if |
| 5650s | they do stick with a hardcore dive I |
| 5652s | mean most teams haven't really liked the |
| 5654s | new Sombra all that much I mean we saw |
| 5656s | like some Effectiveness with it in the |
| 5658s | world cup and install situations and |
| 5660s | kind of when it's unexpected but I don't |
| 5662s | any teams are really implementing it too |
| 5664s | quickly right now but after those |
| 5665s | ultimate changes come through maybe they |
| 5668s | will starting things off though it's |
| 5669s | Sanctuary open things up I think a map |
| 5671s | that microwave were actually pretty |
| 5673s | happy with ready for battle well looking |
| 5676s | at the St propositions this is what |
| 5678s | we've been waiting for the doomfist on |
| 5681s | Mari and it is not troll it is not a |
| 5684s | troll but Kindred matching the doomfist |
| 5687s | that is a surprise because in the last |
| 5689s | minor we saw drainers play a lot of that |
| 5692s | Reinhardt composition with a symmetra to |
| 5694s | kind of close that Gap in between the |
| 5696s | teams that and make up for it in the |
| 5698s | brawl comp but now matching the doist we |
| 5701s | don't know how this is going to go yet |
| 5703s | yeah this is a map peculiarity right |
| 5705s | it's p on Sanctuary it's one of the |
| 5707s | longest range control points in the |
| 5708s | entire game playing Reinhard on this map |
| 5711s | even with the SIM TP is kind of just |
| 5712s | hellish right you're just like walking |
| 5714s | at the enemy team 24/7 it feels really |
| 5716s | bad so for this map in particular we get |
| 5718s | Kindred on the doomfist but I doubt |
| 5720s | it'll stay that way with Mari being more |
| 5722s | comfortable on this pick though you have |
| 5723s | to give a slight L up to |
| 5726s | Michael drainers they're time trying to |
| 5728s | around get that damage down sen with |
| 5731s | flank onari but so with the first KCK |
| 5734s | and Z that's going to leave a huge sword |
| 5736s | spot in the back line but it's actually |
| 5737s | just a trade between two supports death |
| 5740s | and Senna also trading one for one |
| 5742s | without the backline of Michael wave |
| 5744s | they're still able to keep alive and |
| 5746s | stay on that yeah despite the the lack |
| 5748s | in Anna they're managing to run drainers |
| 5752s | out of the point here at least get that |
| 5753s | first HCK going up and first tick in |
| 5755s | matchups like this matters so much |
| 5757s | because both these teams can keep that |
| 5759s | point tick going for so long even if |
| 5761s | they lose the fight the percentage gain |
| 5763s | by that first team is |
| 5765s | immense curious about this geni versus |
| 5768s | racer match up as well we see Zoe trying |
| 5770s | to go one to one with car here getting a |
| 5772s | bit of damage but now Mari going down |
| 5774s | early because biotic n that is amazing |
| 5778s | now we're looking at a team without a |
| 5781s | front trying to make a way into their |
| 5783s | point kindri just doing a lot of |
| 5786s | disruption here on the DPS line while |
| 5788s | the anti of microwave back I mean you |
| 5792s | lose your tank that's kind of just the |
| 5793s | fight even in dive competitions like |
| 5795s | this that can play those Messier fights |
| 5797s | actually M wave have to be careful they |
| 5798s | don't overextend here yeah they |
| 5799s | absolutely do it was a punch forward by |
| 5801s | Mari that sent him there and Keith just |
| 5804s | you know valiantly followed and caught a |
| 5806s | pulse bomb for their efforts to save |
| 5808s | their tank hello |
| 5810s | there um Nano in two of these a back |
| 5815s | pockets but in terms of ultimate economy |
| 5817s | trainers are a little bit of a leg up |
| 5819s | hreds almost onto that meteor strike but |
| 5822s | they're missing their DPS |
| 5824s | ultimates big Advantage for Mich wave in |
| 5826s | terms of having that DPS UL available N |
| 5829s | oade is a very scary threat the drainers |
| 5832s | have to deal with but like we said this |
| 5834s | is a very long map it is not so |
| 5836s | impossible to disengage nanoade just |
| 5838s | because of the distances that you can |
| 5840s | keep that Genji away at especially if |
| 5842s | you get a first pick on Mario again this |
| 5844s | is the doomfist player in the lobby and |
| 5846s | they can first pick two fights in a row |
| 5848s | now now they're just forcing the fight |
| 5850s | with the overclock though this is |
| 5852s | amazing this is so well done with the |
| 5854s | Nano overclock and now death just |
| 5856s | finding so much living up to their name |
| 5858s | with that rail gun and flipping that |
| 5860s | point over despite Mari going down first |
| 5862s | a really good clean up from Michael |
| 5865s | wave not a fight they should have won by |
| 5868s | any means but drainers I think just got |
| 5869s | a little cocky after their initial tank |
| 5871s | instead of holding the space to step |
| 5872s | forward and into the welcoming arms of a |
| 5874s | whole lot of ultimate microwave because |
| 5876s | they only spent two still have plenty |
| 5878s | left for this fight draer don't |
| 5879s | necessarily have a super combo to finish |
| 5881s | with but with Scarlet down becomes a lot |
| 5882s | more POS yeah Scarlet going down Keith |
| 5885s | the ab that vulnerable so now without |
| 5887s | the support line Michael wave how do you |
| 5889s | hold on to this Mari getting separated |
| 5891s | as the deist that is just never both |
| 5894s | well Senna looking to hold on in the 1 V |
| 5896s | one against Zoe getting a bit of that |
| 5898s | deflection but still can't stay alive |
| 5900s | and that's a bit of a stagger on top of |
| 5902s | it I feel like I'm witnessing like a |
| 5904s | wild west tool both teams have been |
| 5905s | holstered for like two fights yeah they |
| 5907s | spent the the Nano overclock but |
| 5909s | drainers they don't over invest either |
| 5911s | they get the first pick they only spend |
| 5912s | Nano so now we have two teams with |
| 5914s | ultimates holstered ready to let go a |
| 5917s | barage of abilities that realistically |
| 5919s | either team could fall |
| 5922s | to really careful with the positioning |
| 5924s | here when they're trying to agress on |
| 5925s | toi just making sure to stay in the Los |
| 5928s | and very aware of those Sidelines now he |
| 5930s | sleep onto Zoe as that Dragon Blade |
| 5933s | comes through the rally from Scarlet |
| 5935s | tries to keep Zoe alive and force them |
| 5937s | through flip that point over but a |
| 5939s | little bit later Zep turn throws out the |
| 5941s | rally of their own and that overhal is |
| 5944s | going to help that team a bit more par |
| 5946s | however getting stunned now the BG to |
| 5947s | One V one Z comes out on top such a |
| 5951s | messy fight break versus Doom Mari with |
| 5953s | 80 HP just lives through it Kindred |
| 5955s | comes in gets the pick it's Tracer |
| 5957s | versus Z on point 2v one now and zo's |
| 5959s | got a clutch we just buy time for the |
| 5961s | rest of team can they get the blinks |
| 5962s | onto the point to proc overtime no |
| 5964s | santic picks off Zoe as she blinks |
| 5967s | through a 100 to 74 a massive |
| 5971s | upset for microwave and drainers |
| 5974s | drainers taking away the doomfist M this |
| 5976s | was in all of Busan the one map where |
| 5979s | you would give microwave a significant |
| 5981s | Advantage because of their capability on |
| 5983s | the doomfist composition because the |
| 5985s | rinhart doesn't play well at all on |
| 5987s | Sanctuary Kindred even flexes over to |
| 5989s | the tank and yet it's a disaster for for |
| 5991s | Mich wave Mari gets first picked what |
| 5993s | three fights in a row on the doomfist |
| 5995s | you would never expect that out of Mari |
| 5997s | but nevertheless here we are we shift on |
| 6000s | over to Mecha base and Kindred staying |
| 6002s | on the doomfist I expected it on |
| 6005s | Sanctuary but to get a shift to the |
| 6008s | doomfist on on Mecha base is wild for |
| 6012s | drainers but I guess it might just be a |
| 6014s | stick to what's working mentality for |
| 6016s | them right if they're already winning |
| 6017s | the game there's no need to shift over |
| 6019s | to that signature composition quite yet |
| 6022s | yeah I mean it's also a part of not |
| 6024s | bling to reveal the cards a little bit |
| 6026s | too early they are well known to play |
| 6028s | that competition and maybe they just |
| 6030s | don't want too much of that VOD footage |
| 6032s | now starting off the second map it seems |
| 6034s | like drainers are looking to get that |
| 6036s | first point capture right as unlock Mari |
| 6042s | over forward Scarlet over extends though |
| 6046s | microwave getting kicked apart on this |
| 6048s | High Ground look at this they're taking |
| 6050s | bits off the turkey bone from |
| 6052s | Thanksgiving last week like this is pick |
| 6055s | after pick after pick for drainers |
| 6058s | Michael wave don't know where to look |
| 6059s | there's a Genji behind them a doomfist |
| 6060s | in front of them and and somehow like a |
| 6062s | brri ends up in their backline at the |
| 6064s | same time this is ridiculously |
| 6066s | impressive traded aggro by |
| 6069s | drainers have such good control right |
| 6072s | now and they're switching over to the |
| 6073s | Genji pick on far as well and it's |
| 6075s | already 80% up to the Dragon Blade this |
| 6077s | is such good pacing on the ultimate and |
| 6080s | we talked about the sigma Doom match up |
| 6082s | a little bit here and doomfist does play |
| 6084s | well into the sigma like we said before |
| 6086s | I mean Kindred gets a little bit of |
| 6087s | Health G down but there's just so much |
| 6090s | sustain coming from Diner's side par |
| 6092s | might be in a little bit of Danger |
| 6094s | trying to escape oh no par is fine yeah |
| 6097s | and again it's that long sideline for |
| 6098s | the Anna the traded aggro I was talking |
| 6100s | about when par is getting pushed out |
| 6102s | that's when Senna and kred look to dive |
| 6103s | in and then right as they go down it's |
| 6105s | the blade coming out again this rotating |
| 6108s | of the aggression from drainers allows |
| 6110s | them to tank that damage allows them to |
| 6113s | eat that aggression from Michel wave and |
| 6115s | completely absorb it firing back with a |
| 6117s | counter punch stronger than other yeah |
| 6120s | that was just so clean from par the |
| 6123s | sport right there from zepter as well |
| 6126s | keeping the sustain up making sure that |
| 6128s | Inspire is being pro it is just so well |
| 6131s | coordinated on this second duck map from |
| 6133s | trainers and their ultimate tasting Is |
| 6136s | So Good Michael wave they need to find |
| 6137s | something to counter they have that |
| 6139s | blizzard entally but immediately forcing |
| 6141s | out the immortality field from Keith and |
| 6143s | now view left once again that b piece |
| 6146s | vulnerable the dive goes down the meteor |
| 6148s | strike as well Keith Falls and now they |
| 6150s | have to rely on that on carlet on the |
| 6152s | Lucio but there's just no time they're |
| 6155s | just being walled out but they can't get |
| 6157s | into the point you you know the anime |
| 6159s | fights where like the person's basically |
| 6161s | just a line across the screen and |
| 6162s | they're like Ping ponging a million |
| 6164s | places that's what drers are and |
| 6166s | microwave just like trying to keep up |
| 6167s | but they they have no clue the five |
| 6169s | members of drainers rotate so so quickly |
| 6171s | and so often that microwave doesn't know |
| 6174s | where the target is at this time they |
| 6175s | zero in on that an in the backline but |
| 6177s | not before death is traded out on |
| 6179s | trainers cut off the rotation most of |
| 6182s | microwave but we'll see if they can |
| 6184s | actually capitalize if things get dirty |
| 6186s | the dive composition plays a lot better |
| 6189s | Diner's in a fantastic position here to |
| 6191s | finish off Mario he's only got 250 HP |
| 6193s | the bra just holding sheld for dear life |
| 6194s | Mario's able to pick them off before |
| 6195s | going down with 18 HP they are not long |
| 6197s | for life either draer and Kindred on the |
| 6200s | Doom is finish off the opposing side in |
| 6205s | no more than two maps on the compeition |
| 6209s | that they were touted de |
| 6211s | playing and I mean I there is just no |
| 6215s | way toate how well drainers played this |
| 6218s | second submap but that first map they |
| 6220s | were able to take it away Kindred I felt |
| 6222s | like had such good awareness of those |
| 6224s | sight lines of the length of that first |
| 6226s | Sanctuary map as well where the Anna was |
| 6229s | positioned and making sure to stay in |
| 6230s | within line of sight and that the |
| 6232s | brigita was always there to make sure to |
| 6234s | save off that pressure from the backline |
| 6236s | when both of them were playing that dive |
| 6238s | and it we talked a lot about the |
| 6240s | backline of Michael wave and how strong |
| 6242s | that could have been but I feel like the |
| 6244s | backline of drainers cannot be |
| 6246s | understated they did incredibly well on |
| 6249s | Busan yeah their positioning was dead on |
| 6251s | I mean you know they came in with a plan |
| 6252s | here but I have to give credit where D |
| 6254s | like you talked about the first sub map |
| 6255s | was like it was good but realistically I |
| 6257s | think you could put a lot of that down |
| 6258s | to overextensions by microwave and Mario |
| 6261s | in particular who again you expect to |
| 6263s | perform very well on the doomfist No No |
| 6264s | shade like normally extremely good but |
| 6266s | getting first pick three times in a row |
| 6268s | yeah that's going to lose a submap for |
| 6270s | you right and then you look over at the |
| 6271s | other side map number two completely |
| 6273s | different story fing Michael waiver came |
| 6275s | in with a strong plan they came with a |
| 6276s | good composition from the sigma and they |
| 6278s | got picked apart I mean drainers took |
| 6282s | them for a walk there there was no way |
| 6285s | that they could look that was the |
| 6287s | appropriate way to look when dealing |
| 6289s | with dive coming from this many angles |
| 6291s | incredible stuff from drainers I cannot |
| 6293s | overate it and I'm still honestly not |
| 6295s | even 100% sure this is what they would |
| 6297s | normally run on that map I think if they |
| 6299s | lost that first map decisively in the |
| 6300s | doomfist mirror I think there's a very |
| 6302s | strong chance that we saw something like |
| 6304s | a Reinhardt like a junker Queen on Mecha |
| 6306s | base but because they won that first map |
| 6308s | and they said hey look if we get |
| 6309s | mirrored here we we know we can win like |
| 6312s | there's no reason to go for this swap |
| 6313s | again because that doomfist composition |
| 6314s | does play so well into the sigma like we |
| 6317s | see here yeah I mean and they were able |
| 6320s | to force down the cool downs from the |
| 6321s | Baptist especially so effectively and |
| 6324s | when they were trying to rotate in with |
| 6326s | the gravitic flux and the sound barrier |
| 6329s | they just got cut off at the knees and |
| 6330s | then all of a sudden you have Mari |
| 6332s | trying to sustain into this doomfist and |
| 6334s | they were able to find one but the rest |
| 6336s | of the squad rotated in so quickly just |
| 6338s | really nicely done from drainers it was |
| 6341s | really impressive now we have some |
| 6342s | head-to-head death versus Senna s doing |
| 6345s | just a little bit more damage but the |
| 6347s | elims and the final blows that's really |
| 6350s | the sword Point here on Busan yeah I |
| 6352s | mean I think this is like it's a weird |
| 6354s | difference right because they're both of |
| 6356s | course doing the damage but one of them |
| 6357s | is doing a lot more damage into the |
| 6358s | backline Senna of course with those |
| 6360s | eliminations I think likely just pulled |
| 6362s | ahead in the second map more than |
| 6363s | anything it was probably pretty even |
| 6365s | coming out of Busan but the second that |
| 6367s | second map came up Inc Senna had |
| 6369s | basically Infinite Space to do whatever |
| 6371s | they wanted that's when things become a |
| 6373s | real problem with the soj because I |
| 6375s | imagine I mean death spent most of their |
| 6376s | time just like shooting a doomfist right |
| 6378s | that's a lot of that damage which unless |
| 6381s | the doomfist dies it's basically |
| 6382s | non-existent right so this is not |
| 6385s | necessarily a function of like who's |
| 6386s | better at soj so much as you see the |
| 6388s | effects of how much space each player's |
| 6390s | team respectively were making and just |
| 6392s | how much more there was for |
| 6396s | drainers is just going to be I'm I'm |
| 6399s | really interested to see what hybrid map |
| 6402s | they're going to pick onto this next one |
| 6404s | I mean you said is Midtown really an |
| 6406s | option we all love and know King's Row |
| 6409s | but seeing how that first map when maybe |
| 6411s | they want to I no I think it's Midtown |
| 6413s | actually like yeah Kings Midtown okay |
| 6417s | forw map but Midtown for Ryan cter curse |
| 6421s | I would say would have been a little bit |
| 6423s | worse for the Reinhardt but okay we're |
| 6425s | going King's Row I mean it look it's a |
| 6428s | classic Reinhardt map it is a very good |
| 6430s | Sigma map there there is of course that |
| 6432s | I thought Midtown was going to come out |
| 6433s | though because it kind of counterpicks |
| 6434s | drainers a little bit more effectively |
| 6436s | but if the reinhardt's not what you're |
| 6437s | worried about if you just want to play |
| 6438s | to your strength and your comfortability |
| 6440s | I do think Kings Row does make plenty of |
| 6442s | sense I think it was just shaky footing |
| 6445s | from Michael wave they weren't expecting |
| 6447s | to lose that first sub map and after |
| 6449s | that when they switch over to the sigma |
| 6450s | the Doom composition just plays so well |
| 6453s | into it and that backline felt like such |
| 6455s | a sore point they were always being |
| 6457s | isolated especially with the dive |
| 6458s | compositions and sigma just wasn't able |
| 6460s | to effectively protect them in that comp |
| 6463s | now moving on to Kings Row I'm wondering |
| 6465s | if we see something similar especially |
| 6467s | out of Michael wave because they are a |
| 6469s | team that has been playing a lot of |
| 6470s | doomfist in the |
| 6472s | scrims I I don't know man you've got to |
| 6474s | be so shaken up the second you lose the |
| 6476s | Doom head-to-head when you're the Doom |
| 6478s | team is like you you just start |
| 6480s | panicking you know so you pull out a |
| 6482s | sigma in the next map and then the sigma |
| 6484s | doesn't work and now you're like well |
| 6485s | what do we do now man like now they play |
| 6487s | the Reinhardt now they now they play |
| 6489s | Reinhardt over yeah that would be the |
| 6492s | real giggy Chad move come on Mari come |
| 6495s | on no it's back to the Doom okay I don't |
| 6498s | this do this junkrat real junkrat real I |
| 6501s | mean junk I I like junk on Kings I like |
| 6503s | Hanzo more Hanzo is just better junk to |
| 6505s | be mostly realistic but okay yeah so as |
| 6509s | expected drainers making SP this was the |
| 6512s | worry though with Kings Row and it |
| 6513s | always was right when you pick Kings you |
| 6515s | open up to the rinhart Midtown little |
| 6518s | bit longer ranges a little bit harder |
| 6519s | for the Reinhardt to properly get in in |
| 6520s | a lot of those |
| 6522s | situations but here on Kings drainers |
| 6524s | are kind of free to do whatever they |
| 6525s | want while they won that doomfist mirror |
| 6526s | prior and I'm sure they're probably |
| 6528s | comfortable running into that mirror |
| 6530s | they hear it on on the other side and |
| 6531s | they swap to what's comfortable for them |
| 6532s | after that map one is passed it is |
| 6534s | gloves |
| 6538s | off or not wait a minute wait why do |
| 6541s | they do this they swwa to like three |
| 6542s | different compositions and right at the |
| 6543s | last second back to the okay the |
| 6545s | justification here being we beat you on |
| 6547s | the doomfist before we'll beat you on do |
| 6550s | it is it is that straightforward as |
| 6551s | Larry the Cable Guy would say if it |
| 6553s | ain't broke don't fix it okay yeah let's |
| 6556s | go after that backline but par |
| 6558s | immediately gets slept this is really |
| 6560s | well done from Michael wave to defend |
| 6562s | that backline scarlet and Keith now |
| 6564s | already opening up the picks and this is |
| 6566s | what they expect to do again a large bit |
| 6568s | of the pain was just slight |
| 6570s | overextensions by Mari that were being |
| 6572s | punished by drainers really effectively |
| 6574s | if they have in between those Maps a |
| 6576s | quick little hey just reel it back in a |
| 6578s | little bit it's an easy fix it is an |
| 6581s | easy fix in theory and they can just |
| 6582s | peel away this drainer dive I feel a |
| 6585s | little bit like we know doomfist Buffs |
| 6588s | are coming we're practicing we're ready |
| 6590s | for the next next |
| 6592s | patch a traded oh Keith eats it is it an |
| 6596s | onog Gap does Keith go down oh Keith |
| 6598s | goes down it's an autogap santic wins |
| 6600s | that duel kred gets into the backline |
| 6602s | and now it's the problem I mean how does |
| 6603s | microwave ever come back from this 3v5 |
| 6605s | they're getting hunted down and I don't |
| 6607s | think there's any real recourse shot |
| 6610s | they they're just all in this little |
| 6612s | Corridor and what a whip shot that was |
| 6614s | just like a long rying yeah |
| 6617s | yep well they're they have pretty much |
| 6620s | have to let go of this point they don't |
| 6622s | really have a good way of getting back |
| 6623s | to it especially with the immobility of |
| 6625s | the back line thus far and that's very |
| 6628s | easily headed onto that second |
| 6632s | capture card unlocked on the second |
| 6634s | Point let's take a look at the ultimate |
| 6635s | charge because that's what really tells |
| 6637s | us the story of this one who has the |
| 6639s | ultimates to break or hold this choke |
| 6640s | point honestly it looks pretty even the |
| 6642s | big difference though is that the Nano |
| 6643s | is a lot closer for santic which means |
| 6645s | that the nanoade is a lot closer to |
| 6648s | being online though with this meteor |
| 6650s | strike Mari might be able to get |
| 6651s | something done by going far into this |
| 6653s | backline and trying to seek out someone |
| 6654s | like a setic like a |
| 6656s | Senna we're almost able to take down |
| 6658s | Kindred but the retreat was there now |
| 6660s | stuck into the choke seeing how they try |
| 6662s | and get through Zoe does have a dragon |
| 6664s | blade and they're going to go for it |
| 6666s | trying to get onto that backline par |
| 6668s | however with the Dragon Blade of their |
| 6670s | own taking down both death now Scarlet |
| 6672s | left over has the rally but isn't able |
| 6674s | to use it it's drainers all the way able |
| 6677s | to get the team kill and now push past |
| 6679s | that first |
| 6681s | oh it's really bad it so it came down |
| 6683s | ultimates who got to break that choke |
| 6684s | point it was like 10% ahead on Nano for |
| 6687s | santic that that did it that made the |
| 6688s | difference but on the other side |
| 6691s | microwave they spent they spent blade |
| 6693s | they don't have nanoade for this fight |
| 6695s | they don't get there like oh we get our |
| 6696s | one back after you use yours they're |
| 6698s | going to have to try and Nano overclock |
| 6699s | which again not always so easy but death |
| 6702s | looked good on it before Zoe down though |
| 6704s | now 45 it's more disasters falling apart |
| 6706s | here for Michael |
| 6708s | wave now kindri gets that high ground |
| 6711s | with the meteor strike I mean you get |
| 6713s | the meteor strike out of Kindred at the |
| 6714s | very least but look at the pacing |
| 6716s | they're still having that overclock they |
| 6718s | still have that rally on the other side |
| 6719s | both support ultimates but what are they |
| 6721s | supposed to Nano here especially now |
| 6724s | that the overclock goes through you see |
| 6726s | that Nano go through both support |
| 6727s | ultimates use saving off all that |
| 6729s | pressure but drainers they are just |
| 6731s | using that rally death is able to take |
| 6733s | down zepter now relying on santic for |
| 6735s | the sustain Santa goes through and |
| 6737s | drainers they're going to have to back |
| 6738s | off of this one lots of deflection but |
| 6741s | with that anti Michael way finally |
| 6743s | stopped the bleeding yeah bit of |
| 6744s | miscommunication on Diner's side they |
| 6746s | knew the Nano overclock was coming and |
| 6748s | it looked like most of the team tried to |
| 6750s | disengage but Zurn was like no we're |
| 6751s | rallying we're going in we're going to |
| 6753s | kill |
| 6754s | this and then it was just z turn and all |
| 6757s | of a sudden things got really awkward uh |
| 6760s | but theage idea was pretty good right |
| 6762s | try to make real quick yeah yeah exactly |
| 6766s | could have bashed out but again this is |
| 6768s | a minor missing play now an overclock |
| 6771s | forward from Senna looks to punish what |
| 6773s | they think is overextension on Mari and |
| 6775s | they do get Mari but nothing more oh my |
| 6778s | God wait trainers they were able to get |
| 6780s | one but the way that santic was dancing |
| 6782s | around with Senna in that little |
| 6785s | Corridor and was able to win that one |
| 6787s | out even with the overclock active |
| 6789s | nicely done by |
| 6791s | keep now as the dust settles from a very |
| 6794s | awkward fight actually get a couple open |
| 6796s | coming back online the Nano blade is not |
| 6798s | there for drainers the Nano boost is too |
| 6800s | far to make it a reliable combo so it's |
| 6801s | likely a dry blade in with a regular |
| 6803s | engage and there's no real response from |
| 6804s | microwave they're just going to have to |
| 6806s | try and deny this Blade the value that |
| 6808s | it probably deserves but if par can find |
| 6811s | one with the blade here it will be |
| 6813s | enough yeah par I mean has been really |
| 6815s | good on these blades Kindred first of |
| 6817s | fall that's going to be another stall |
| 6819s | though they don't want to engage this |
| 6820s | fight without tank the disengage comes |
| 6822s | through and the antibiotic nade already |
| 6824s | being used yeah a lot of random kills |
| 6827s | that I mean realistically shouldn't be |
| 6828s | happening just small overextensions in |
| 6829s | theal |
| 6830s | whether it be nerves or miscommunication |
| 6832s | it is errors but they're constantly |
| 6835s | being punished both teams are diligent |
| 6836s | and looking for opportunities to catch |
| 6838s | other players out but the name of this |
| 6840s | fight hasn't really changed it's all |
| 6842s | about that initial |
| 6844s | blade oh the anti lands onto the players |
| 6847s | and there's just the followup from Mari |
| 6849s | nicely done santic already down par |
| 6852s | looking to trade something back that's |
| 6854s | actually good Mari now falling drainer |
| 6856s | should be able to engage easily and |
| 6858s | there's par with the blade now being |
| 6860s | anti having to disengage a little bit |
| 6861s | further blad's going to run out without |
| 6863s | a pick but there's still that flank |
| 6865s | potential Scarlet however finding |
| 6866s | Kindred now without a tank as Mari is |
| 6868s | coming back from a closer spawn both |
| 6870s | rallies looking to try and force the |
| 6872s | fight forward it's a really messy fight |
| 6875s | now three players of ders this rally got |
| 6877s | no value I mean Zep popped it and just |
| 6880s | like was forced to back up the entire |
| 6881s | time they thought they had numbers but |
| 6883s | microwave with a spawn Advantage were |
| 6885s | the ones who had it in the end and now |
| 6886s | look at the ultimate situation it's |
| 6888s | desperate for drainers nanom meteor |
| 6889s | strike is is nothing in the face of Nano |
| 6892s | overclock meteor strike for the opposing |
| 6893s | side how do you win this fight you need |
| 6895s | to find a pick but it's not happening |
| 6897s | santic is the one getting picked off |
| 6900s | yeah santic falling with the Nano in the |
| 6902s | back pocket still 30 seconds left over |
| 6904s | death however raining Hellfire from |
| 6907s | above able to get a few lot of damage |
| 6909s | down with that overclock Kindred however |
| 6912s | as the rest of the squad is being |
| 6913s | separated Now using that meteor strike |
| 6916s | looking for the pick trying to chase |
| 6918s | down death can't find instead going for |
| 6921s | the re-engage now looking for death take |
| 6924s | down God oh take down the so but it's |
| 6928s | not enough they're stunned and now |
| 6930s | overclock or the overtime comes through |
| 6933s | they're trying to use zepter to try and |
| 6935s | get through they need some kind of sound |
| 6937s | barrier need some kind of sustain |
| 6938s | they're dancing around that point the |
| 6940s | team is coming back now now the |
| 6942s | overclock comes through from Senna finds |
| 6943s | Scarlet they're taking down one of the |
| 6945s | supports already now they just need to |
| 6947s | find Zoe Zoe is forced to back off and |
| 6949s | they should be able to capture at this |
| 6951s | point mari's coming back on through |
| 6953s | trying to dive onto that back line but |
| 6955s | there's no ultimates to come through |
| 6957s | it's just a dry fight and both sides |
| 6959s | Kindred is able to take down the tank |
| 6961s | without tank now Michael wave they have |
| 6962s | to find some way to force themselves |
| 6964s | forwards but there's no ultimates |
| 6965s | nothing in the back pocket and they're |
| 6967s | able to finally capture that second |
| 6969s | Point trainers have got it and they they |
| 6971s | got to be thinking Senna time and time |
| 6973s | again for that initial opener right the |
| 6975s | the so and was kind of your only chance |
| 6979s | at getting in there and boy did they now |
| 6982s | Michel wave set to defend a one minute |
| 6984s | time egg this seems very doable |
| 6985s | considering that they've been playing |
| 6986s | good OverWatch for pretty much the |
| 6988s | entire rest of the map I I have had very |
| 6990s | few complaints about the way this team |
| 6992s | has been playing but the swaps across |
| 6994s | the board are a plenty over to Winston |
| 6996s | for microw wave over to the junker Queen |
| 6998s | for Kindred a very powerful pick in |
| 7000s | their hands how do you out brawl this |
| 7002s | when they've got a sound barrier to |
| 7004s | engage on you with yeah Zep was able to |
| 7007s | build up that sound barrier so quickly |
| 7009s | and now santic building up the kitune |
| 7011s | rush as well they're forcing the tempo |
| 7013s | as far forward as they can with those |
| 7015s | two ultimate sound barrier immediately |
| 7017s | going down as Zoe Pops that Dragon Blade |
| 7019s | how are they supposed to find a pick |
| 7021s | here oh but Senna goes down and now you |
| 7024s | have Zoe in the back line trying to |
| 7026s | contend with these two supports and |
| 7027s | they're able to find all of them Zoe |
| 7030s | immediately clutching that back with the |
| 7032s | team kill it it's an ultimate disaster |
| 7034s | again I mean they spent sound barrier |
| 7036s | for a blade like that the Nano still |
| 7040s | there Nano monkey is now the problem |
| 7042s | that diners have to deal with and if you |
| 7044s | look at the the percentages at the top |
| 7045s | of their thing there's no check marks |
| 7047s | there's no shiny blue thing there's |
| 7048s | nothing to deal with this Nano Winston |
| 7050s | or the Nano oh overclock the Nano |
| 7054s | overclock comes through Mari immediately |
| 7056s | takes down par DPS line down Zurn goes |
| 7058s | down Kindred has nothing to sustain and |
| 7060s | they get 40 m in to third point this is |
| 7065s | not bad at all on Michael wave side you |
| 7067s | were kind of seeing them starting to |
| 7069s | come together they're try they're |
| 7071s | getting the coordination and it seems |
| 7073s | like they're getting a lot more space as |
| 7075s | well a few small overextensions on drer |
| 7077s | side heavily punished yeah I well I mean |
| 7080s | I think the difficulty is one of two |
| 7083s | things one is that the Nanos on |
| 7084s | microwave side have been insanely |
| 7086s | effective because death has just been a |
| 7088s | monster uh when they've been pocketed |
| 7090s | for a lot of this right but then on the |
| 7092s | other side drers just couldn't get a |
| 7093s | clean fight engage on B I mean it it I I |
| 7096s | think they would hold themselves to the |
| 7098s | fact that it probably shouldn't have |
| 7099s | taken them that long to get that one |
| 7100s | fight right they had blade they weren't |
| 7102s | proactive enough with it they got |
| 7103s | engaged on they got engaged on again and |
| 7105s | then they got picked in their time bank |
| 7107s | just got chipped down to nothing so B |
| 7110s | was just kind of a particularly ugly |
| 7112s | point for drainers and they know they |
| 7113s | can clean it up here because again there |
| 7115s | a team that we know has the capability |
| 7117s | to put up some really solid OverWatch |
| 7119s | when you're playing in these Doom |
| 7120s | mirrors you can't really take anything |
| 7121s | for granted okay I think they found out |
| 7124s | monkey was working so they're going to |
| 7126s | be sticking with the Winston pick here |
| 7132s | I like it on the attacking side on |
| 7133s | defense the problem is the attackers |
| 7135s | will just swap Bastion but on attack the |
| 7137s | Defenders don't really have that |
| 7138s | privilege so it does feel a little bit |
| 7140s | more warranted in this |
| 7143s | position yeah so-called freethinkers |
| 7145s | when they see a monkey as soon as they |
| 7147s | get that reset off it's going to be |
| 7148s | Bastion in but drainers they can't |
| 7150s | really be afford to let that go over on |
| 7153s | the defense Kindra still on the |
| 7156s | doomfist seeing if they can get |
| 7158s | something done early |
| 7161s | yeah the Poke battle again one that I |
| 7163s | I'm giving a slight Edge to death too |
| 7165s | because they've been so fantastic this |
| 7168s | mapers looking for the magic that made |
| 7170s | Mecha base work but I'm not sure they |
| 7172s | can find that consistent tradeoff of |
| 7174s | aggression in the dive that they were |
| 7175s | able to when the point was a little more |
| 7178s | circle |
| 7179s | shaped yeah with the walls to climb on |
| 7181s | over Senna however finding that pick |
| 7183s | Keith also taken down par as a trade but |
| 7187s | if you want to trade DPS for DPS they |
| 7189s | can do that they don't mind Mari still |
| 7191s | looking on The High Ground Keith having |
| 7193s | to peek out and away for a little while |
| 7195s | looking to get the sight lines onto the |
| 7197s | enemy Anna and get land that anti does |
| 7200s | so goes down oh that was nicely done I |
| 7203s | mean Keith ruined Senna the anti nade |
| 7205s | hit into the followup it was funny cuz |
| 7207s | Mari went to dive after the anti nade |
| 7209s | and it was dead before they hit the |
| 7210s | ground it was there was no recourse for |
| 7213s | the soj and a clean Fight Win does bode |
| 7216s | well for uh for Michael wave here I |
| 7218s | think a lot of that comes down to them |
| 7219s | that early pick right because that pick |
| 7222s | comes through you know you have spawn |
| 7223s | Advantage as the attacking side so they |
| 7225s | reset quicker they gain the space and |
| 7226s | then used it to find another pick on to |
| 7228s | Center there's not really too much else |
| 7229s | to it now it's about getting through |
| 7230s | that choke and trying to utilize the |
| 7232s | ultimate advantage that they've garnered |
| 7233s | because again they have that Nano they |
| 7235s | have that overclock drainers can't |
| 7236s | really step up here and microw wave know |
| 7238s | it ah that Kindred mirroring the Winston |
| 7242s | now but they weren't able to get the |
| 7243s | sight lines has Kindred dropped in and |
| 7245s | now santic goes down immediately to |
| 7247s | Keith this is just a support trade and |
| 7250s | the Stagger as well should allow them to |
| 7252s | get a lot of progress on this point he's |
| 7254s | a bit of a problem I'm not going to lie |
| 7256s | that's that's two really useful picks |
| 7258s | coming out from an an and it's only |
| 7260s | making the ultimate situation worse it's |
| 7262s | not like this damage is being healed up |
| 7264s | it's just picks right so the sports |
| 7266s | aren't really getting old charged |
| 7267s | drainers aren't moving towards any |
| 7269s | answer to what microwave are about to |
| 7270s | offer up whether it's on the soj or the |
| 7272s | Winston it will be |
| 7274s | dangerous yeah Senna and death in this |
| 7276s | one V one you have to give the edge to |
| 7278s | death I mean they are getting the Nano |
| 7280s | overclocks here as well but it's just |
| 7282s | the value that they're able to get from |
| 7284s | these overclocks Now Keith having that |
| 7286s | Nano in trying to keep death alive for |
| 7290s | the fight now using the overclock trying |
| 7291s | to shred through the health of the Nano |
| 7294s | Winston able to get out with the Primal |
| 7296s | Rage but still an ultimate expended for |
| 7298s | nearly no value and now you have an Anna |
| 7301s | just isolated oh my God Zurn comes in |
| 7303s | time death goes down though and the |
| 7305s | rally from both sides staving off the |
| 7308s | pressure there's the primal rage to come |
| 7310s | through as well and Par finding Scarlet |
| 7313s | still a very messy fight bubble goes |
| 7315s | down dancing in and out and drainers |
| 7317s | finally come out on top real nicely done |
| 7320s | by drainers I mean it was a defensive |
| 7321s | fight for them they wanted to just play |
| 7323s | a little proactive gain that space and |
| 7325s | then keep Kindred alive through the Nano |
| 7327s | because you're trading it for a nano |
| 7328s | overclock on the other side it is |
| 7329s | efficient for drainers now they're up |
| 7331s | two DPS ultimates to one yes there's a |
| 7334s | Primal Rage there for Mari but the DPS |
| 7335s | ultimate a little bit more impactful in |
| 7338s | this situation |
| 7339s | see if they can leverage that into |
| 7341s | another fight win |
| 7343s | here they really zeroed in on trying to |
| 7345s | get sanx out of that fight and Z came in |
| 7348s | just in time to take down death which |
| 7349s | really snowballed that fight for Diner's |
| 7352s | favor now looking for another defensive |
| 7354s | fight with both the ultimates in the |
| 7356s | pocket Mari has the Primal Rage to get |
| 7359s | things started but it's going to be |
| 7361s | death to once again start the engagement |
| 7363s | par needs to find some way to engage |
| 7366s | back but they cannot par immediately |
| 7368s | goes down to Scarlet and santic is only |
| 7371s | going to be able to trade back with a |
| 7372s | kill but it doesn't stop Michael W from |
| 7375s | pushing forward yeah I think santic |
| 7376s | going down here kind of kills any chance |
| 7378s | of a recontest save for maybe a absolute |
| 7381s | final second one is that a monkey going |
| 7382s | down oh I thought for sure that was an |
| 7385s | environmental now it's Mari continuing |
| 7388s | the storm forward for Michael wave a |
| 7390s | two3 time back at the end of be here and |
| 7392s | the jugle off absolutely no contest for |
| 7394s | you no sh 4 minutes on the clock two |
| 7398s | ultimates a nano and a Blade with |
| 7399s | Diner's name on it to send this card |
| 7402s | over the victory box yeah Michael wave |
| 7405s | they have such good Pace every single |
| 7408s | fight after fight they've just been |
| 7410s | snowballing and you have Kindred trying |
| 7412s | to peek in but they just get shredded so |
| 7415s | quickly especially with death on this |
| 7417s | ter it's not quite a Bastion but that |
| 7419s | soj can still put out the DPS at close |
| 7422s | range in these dive style compositions |
| 7425s | melave have got to be more proactive we |
| 7427s | can't we can't keep holding neutral we |
| 7429s | have had an ultimate Advantage alas they |
| 7432s | they wait they buy their time and it |
| 7434s | just means that they lose a player early |
| 7436s | s is able to step forward with the Nano |
| 7438s | boost microwave kind of miss an |
| 7440s | opportunity for an early nanoade along |
| 7443s | with that aggression I want to see a |
| 7444s | proper dive here unless they're trying |
| 7446s | to wait it out for like Nano overclock |
| 7448s | on death which has been really |
| 7449s | consistent for them I I see no reason to |
| 7452s | not be proactive in this |
| 7454s | instance yeah they I mean Zoe has also |
| 7458s | been doing some magic here and there is |
| 7460s | the Nano blade Zoe going in on the |
| 7463s | backline it is just immediate how does |
| 7465s | kindred stay alive how does kindred |
| 7467s | sustain the Primal Rage just a second |
| 7470s | too late and there is nothing to do for |
| 7473s | drainers Michael wave taken King's |
| 7476s | Row nicely done it was a bit of a slog |
| 7479s | at the end of the day to get that cart |
| 7481s | to where they want it to be it felt like |
| 7482s | neither team wanted to look for |
| 7484s | proactive fights which was kind of weird |
| 7486s | considering the way that the the first |
| 7488s | map went which is kind of both teams |
| 7491s | juggling claim over the proactive fight |
| 7495s | now on Kings roow there was a lot of |
| 7496s | situations where we saw teams with |
| 7498s | ultimate advantages being unwilling to |
| 7500s | kind of step forward and make that all |
| 7502s | in play on the dive composition but at |
| 7504s | the end of the day that's what it |
| 7506s | actually took to win the map that final |
| 7508s | play stepping up being the team to all |
| 7511s | in on the dive and send that nanoade in |
| 7513s | was what won it for Michael wave and |
| 7514s | honestly I think that's what won it for |
| 7516s | a lot of their fights they were |
| 7517s | proactive in their defensive B and I |
| 7519s | that was one of the best that we've |
| 7520s | actually seen them over the course of |
| 7521s | the series and then proactive with that |
| 7523s | final C take it's really nice to see |
| 7526s | yeah they really found their footing in |
| 7529s | this map and I think they might be |
| 7531s | running a lot more of the doomfist and |
| 7534s | the Winston and I mean the wind the |
| 7536s | doomfist really found the footing here |
| 7538s | as well Kindred felt like they were just |
| 7541s | a little bit of a step behind Mari she |
| 7543s | was able to get a lot of value on this |
| 7546s | doom vist and now headed on to the next |
| 7548s | one we looking at a flash point now yeah |
| 7551s | and flash point I think actually plays |
| 7553s | super cool because I think both these |
| 7554s | teams can actually run exactly what they |
| 7556s | wanted to if you want to play that Ry |
| 7559s | into the doomfist it's absolutely there |
| 7561s | the map plays well for Russia if you |
| 7563s | want to play the doomfist M plays great |
| 7565s | for doomfist as well and I'm sure that's |
| 7568s | exactly what Mari wants to go to Mari |
| 7571s | like you said uh a bit of a Redemption |
| 7573s | run on the doomfist and I have to give |
| 7575s | credit where it do it was a lot better |
| 7576s | than it looked on map number one yeah |
| 7579s | and the DPS of of Michael wave as well |
| 7583s | felt like they were on fire during Kings |
| 7585s | Row especially on that attacking side |
| 7587s | where they were given so much space just |
| 7589s | being able to follow up and the backline |
| 7591s | as well the entire of the entirety of |
| 7594s | Michael waves team they really shaped up |
| 7596s | during this map last map we were giving |
| 7598s | a lot of credit to the support line of |
| 7600s | drainers and I think that Michael wave |
| 7603s | maybe didn't like being shown up like |
| 7604s | that no in in map number three I think |
| 7607s | it's going to be even harder to to |
| 7609s | consistently throw that back in Michael |
| 7611s | wave's face because the map counter pick |
| 7613s | isn't necessarily a strong on flasho in |
| 7615s | all the talk that I've had with Pros |
| 7617s | with contenders players with calling all |
| 7618s | heroes players the general consensus |
| 7620s | with flasho is that getting M pick on |
| 7622s | flasho it it matters to some degree |
| 7624s | right there's some kind of change in |
| 7626s | play style across the maps but because |
| 7628s | there's so many points on each of the |
| 7629s | map and the points can play so |
| 7630s | differently and so varied kind of on |
| 7633s | average you're feeling pretty similar |
| 7635s | about most of them and so if I'm microw |
| 7637s | wave I'm saying okay yeah we won that |
| 7639s | and they get the map pick but it's not |
| 7641s | the end of the world whether we go |
| 7642s | surasa or whether we go junker toown |
| 7644s | kind of immaterial at this point for |
| 7646s | what comps are going to be played and |
| 7647s | how the map's going to kind of go down |
| 7650s | yeah Sasa we haven't seen the Reinhardt |
| 7652s | composition out of drainers yet and |
| 7654s | that's basically what they are known for |
| 7656s | so I'm wondering if we're going to see |
| 7658s | the uh the Reinhardt just yet serasa and |
| 7662s | these flash point in general those long |
| 7664s | rotations with the Reinhardt it can be a |
| 7666s | little bit difficult to close that Gap |
| 7668s | so you kind of need to bring out a few |
| 7670s | supplementaries you bring out the Lucio |
| 7672s | you bring out the Baptist yeah I I |
| 7674s | expect JQ a little bit more than I |
| 7676s | expect the Reinhard here just because |
| 7677s | the JQ has that better sustain has the |
| 7679s | range to deal with some of the trickier |
| 7681s | issues that surasa on certain points can |
| 7684s | offer up uh they could kind of swap back |
| 7686s | and forth depending on what point |
| 7687s | they're on but I don't see them |
| 7689s | realistically doing that but like you |
| 7691s | said whether it's the Reinhard whether |
| 7692s | it's the junker Queen I think this is |
| 7693s | where we go back to Our Roots if we're |
| 7695s | drainers and we try to get that brawl |
| 7697s | through yeah I'm wondering as well if we |
| 7701s | are going to see um if we are it's |
| 7704s | there's no way to tie on flasho if I'm |
| 7707s | correct so we are we are not going to be |
| 7709s | getting the burrito eating from this |
| 7711s | matchup at least we're done with the |
| 7713s | hybrid you're you're safe you're safe |
| 7714s | door this map can go very long though I |
| 7717s | I I did a bit on my stream when I was |
| 7719s | co- streaming where I put a marshmallow |
| 7720s | in my mouth while I was casting for |
| 7722s | every elim on a map and I I've done it |
| 7724s | for a couple map types now it's never |
| 7725s | fun right but doing it over the course |
| 7728s | of a fivepoint flash point map might be |
| 7731s | the most hellish experience I've had in |
| 7733s | my entire life okay it you look like a |
| 7735s | chipmunk by the end so it might not be a |
| 7737s | it might not be a draw but this map can |
| 7740s | go very very long and for honestly for |
| 7743s | the sake of this series for what these |
| 7745s | two teams have been putting up they |
| 7746s | deserve a whole match both of them have |
| 7748s | I I think had their shaky moments but |
| 7750s | adapted phenomenally to both their own |
| 7753s | play style and the way this this match |
| 7756s | is shaping up because it's a very |
| 7757s | unorthodox map adaptation |
| 7759s | is the name of the game and it's only a |
| 7761s | three map series normally we talk about |
| 7763s | adaptation on the scale of five map |
| 7765s | Series right over the course of a big AR |
| 7767s | but over three Maps we've seen what like |
| 7770s | a bajillion different compositions |
| 7771s | offered up we saw the sigma we saw the |
| 7773s | doomfist we saw the Winston various DPS |
| 7775s | changes behind them and we know the |
| 7777s | Reinhardt is still on the table and it's |
| 7779s | only been two maps so far there is so |
| 7782s | much this series so I hope we I hope we |
| 7785s | get all five here it deserves all five |
| 7790s | there |
| 7792s | [Music] |
| 7793s | was yeah well we are starting on surasa |
| 7797s | as soon as possible and these long |
| 7800s | rotations like we're talking about the |
| 7802s | adjustments that can come out from |
| 7804s | flasho it's a little bit shaky because |
| 7806s | neither team really has spawn advantage |
| 7809s | on these points it's more like if you're |
| 7810s | losing then you rotate to the next point |
| 7812s | a little bit quicker and it's harder to |
| 7815s | counterpick in these types of |
| 7817s | matchups yeah it well I think it's a |
| 7820s | little bit harder to counter pick just |
| 7821s | because you don't know your team is or |
| 7823s | what the opposing side's going to come |
| 7824s | out on both teams have shown so much |
| 7825s | flexibility and so much willingness to |
| 7827s | come out we talk about like okay to me |
| 7830s | in my opinion this is probably time to |
| 7832s | like look at something like the junker |
| 7833s | Queen and try and stick to your guns but |
| 7836s | for these teams and what they've been |
| 7837s | playing remember they played a match |
| 7839s | before this so that kind of plays into |
| 7840s | their psyche as well and what they think |
| 7843s | works today there is entirely the chance |
| 7845s | that drainers come back out on the |
| 7847s | doomfist right that they try to mirror |
| 7848s | that map composition again there's |
| 7850s | entirely a chance that we get the sigma |
| 7852s | composition coming out again it's all |
| 7854s | kind of up in the air at this point and |
| 7857s | it's not just the technicalities of |
| 7858s | what's good on this map what's good in |
| 7859s | this match up it's also what are these |
| 7861s | teams feeling comfortable on right now |
| 7862s | where do they feel that they're |
| 7864s | struggling the most and what can they do |
| 7866s | to kind of supplement that as much as |
| 7870s | possible I mean the junker Queen |
| 7872s | composition that we saw at the very end |
| 7873s | of King's Row where we saw the junker |
| 7875s | Queen come out with Lucio KIRO I think |
| 7878s | that was kind of a good shout to force |
| 7880s | that pacing forward that they needed |
| 7882s | they needed that kind of tempo but |
| 7883s | because Michael wave had already built |
| 7885s | up so much momentum especially Zoe |
| 7887s | already having the Dragon Blade and |
| 7889s | already in the backline just in the |
| 7890s | faces of the KIRO of the Lucio and there |
| 7892s | was no way for them to sustain through |
| 7894s | because they didn't have the ultimates |
| 7895s | up it was a really tough one for |
| 7898s | drainers to try and pull back at the end |
| 7900s | now headed on to this next one it's a |
| 7902s | symmetra to get them out and instead |
| 7906s | Tracer miror and it's a racer from |
| 7909s | drainers drainers relied pretty heavily |
| 7911s | on that nanoade to get them fight wins I |
| 7913s | I would understand it if it was Michael |
| 7914s | wave and Zoe swapping right because Zoe |
| 7917s | didn't really get many Nanos on the on |
| 7918s | the Genji you're not really playing |
| 7919s | towards it but they were playing towards |
| 7921s | pars Genji Now where's this Nano going |
| 7924s | off onto Senna now Senna wasn't getting |
| 7926s | them before so now it's a new test that |
| 7928s | they kind of have to pass to prove that |
| 7929s | they can use that ultimate |
| 7931s | effectively had dead fight a little poke |
| 7933s | fight see if one of these teams can get |
| 7934s | a pick far on the back foot getting |
| 7935s | forced away on the Tracer but Zep who |
| 7937s | goes down first |
| 7939s | and now once again Michael wave are able |
| 7942s | to get value onto the back line and the |
| 7944s | tank Santa finding a way to stay alive |
| 7946s | zoing getting so much healing from the |
| 7948s | back line and they have to find a way to |
| 7950s | make sure santic doesn't get isolated by |
| 7953s | this geni oh oh the deflection on the |
| 7955s | sleep that was so good from zoee I mean |
| 7958s | this Genji has been shaping up to look |
| 7960s | so good for Michael wave and I like it I |
| 7963s | I love a Genji that can play without |
| 7964s | Nano I I always talk about uh Sparkles |
| 7967s | Genji being kind of the originator when |
| 7969s | he was playing on the Dallas fuel of |
| 7971s | like throwing in naked blades and |
| 7972s | instead just ning somebody else on your |
| 7974s | team and like blad yeah if if you're if |
| 7976s | you're Genji gets one with the naked |
| 7977s | blade great if he just doesn't die and |
| 7979s | make space great like this is what zo is |
| 7982s | doing a lot of the time and doing it |
| 7983s | really effectively being a great |
| 7984s | supportive Genji player and setting up |
| 7986s | plays for the rest of the team I mean |
| 7988s | that's a bit of what we saw from par on |
| 7990s | Busan but ever since the attacking first |
| 7993s | point of King's Row we haven't seen Har |
| 7996s | have that same kind of brilliance and |
| 7998s | now we have the Nano boots already |
| 7999s | coming through from Keith it's on to |
| 8001s | Mari and it's just to make sure that |
| 8002s | they hold on to this point as rers |
| 8004s | funnel in through the choke trying to |
| 8006s | get rid of Zurn but they're going to |
| 8008s | stay alive Mari needs some sustain needs |
| 8010s | some way to get back into the losos of |
| 8012s | the supports and it's going to be the |
| 8013s | meteor strike from kred to take down |
| 8015s | Keith Keith goes down but it's not in |
| 8017s | time for the flash point they have to |
| 8019s | rotate to the next one instead and |
| 8021s | already they've already invested the |
| 8023s | rally into a point that they lost I'm |
| 8025s | going to like hesitantly throw out a C9 |
| 8027s | question mark but but I'm not 100% sure |
| 8029s | was I think it I think it was just a bit |
| 8030s | of a messy fight microwave though get |
| 8033s | first di at that next Point are we |
| 8035s | typing are we typing can I can we un |
| 8037s | chat did they type oh I always want to |
| 8038s | know I want the juice I'm I'm such a I'm |
| 8041s | such a a drama farmer I love I love |
| 8044s | seeing the smack talks but nevertheless |
| 8046s | a reality television host look man you |
| 8049s | seen these players you know them for so |
| 8050s | long you just you just want to know what |
| 8052s | they're saying you know Michael wave |
| 8054s | though got that double DPS all loaded up |
| 8056s | on the other hand though drainers have |
| 8057s | the Nano boost so see can use it more |
| 8059s | effectively or if the bri can disengage |
| 8061s | these ultim effectively with that |
| 8063s | rally yeah I mean it was just |
| 8065s | unfortunate in the in the rally fight as |
| 8069s | well losing it in the last one now Zurn |
| 8070s | are going to go ahead and Pop That rally |
| 8073s | force them through both support |
| 8074s | ultimates now coming as Kindred is the |
| 8076s | nanoboost target s is able to take down |
| 8079s | Keith and now death as well Mari going |
| 8081s | off the edge and now Michael wave they |
| 8084s | are falling over themselves like |
| 8086s | Domino's par looking to clean up the |
| 8088s | last pit yeah really nicely planned by |
| 8089s | drainers they knew they were playing |
| 8091s | into a team that wanted to dive them |
| 8093s | they knew they had the rally Advantage |
| 8095s | microwave pressing all their jump |
| 8096s | buttons the response Rally from Zep turn |
| 8099s | piece of cake the respond with a couple |
| 8100s | more ultimates to make sure the health |
| 8101s | bars go down and everything goes to play |
| 8103s | now it's about holding though and into |
| 8104s | that Zoe blade it's not so easily |
| 8109s | done fishing for some kind of damage |
| 8111s | here already sticking Mari however with |
| 8114s | the power block is going to save off a |
| 8116s | bit of that damage from the stick and |
| 8118s | Par unfortunate doesn't get a pick off |
| 8121s | of that but draer still in good position |
| 8123s | they're already on 50% on the point but |
| 8126s | Kindred getting very low okay yeah just |
| 8130s | isolated there's nowhere to go and this |
| 8132s | should be a pretty quick clean up here |
| 8133s | for Michael wave the nice part being |
| 8135s | that they ninja hold that blade so they |
| 8137s | have the opportunity to Nano blade but |
| 8138s | again I it seems like their prerogative |
| 8140s | is to just not right throw it on Mari |
| 8142s | throw it on death they prove equally as |
| 8144s | effective and just let Zoe try and play |
| 8146s | for the |
| 8147s | one |
| 8148s | four ultimates for Michael wave now both |
| 8151s | up into the next fight 50% on the point |
| 8153s | the progress is looking good and they |
| 8157s | are trying to extend forward and cut |
| 8159s | them off at a bit higher points the |
| 8161s | blade is here it seems like Keith has an |
| 8163s | agreement with Zoe we're going to go |
| 8164s | ahead go for that nanoade once that next |
| 8166s | fight starts and Mari looking to isolate |
| 8168s | out Kindred already getting very low |
| 8170s | there's the power block and the Dragon |
| 8172s | Blade comes through immediately Z goes |
| 8174s | down what a sleep from Keith such an |
| 8177s | effective Duo here and that's going to |
| 8179s | be a clean up for a second |
| 8181s | Point wasn't it wasn't even the sleep |
| 8183s | from Keith it was San's deflected oh my |
| 8187s | not again not again yeah it's another |
| 8190s | one I think we just I think we just |
| 8192s | unbind our shift button if we're uh the |
| 8195s | drainers on right about now unlucky |
| 8197s | stuff but nevertheless you know Zoe's |
| 8199s | feeling good about that first nanoade of |
| 8200s | the day finally getting such an |
| 8202s | important resource in being able to do |
| 8203s | so much with it imbus you with a |
| 8205s | confidence unlike any other Michael wave |
| 8207s | now |
| 8208s | two points to their name are one away |
| 8210s | from flipping this series after a |
| 8212s | disappointing first map they will have |
| 8213s | brought it all the way back for a |
| 8215s | reverse sweep and a first pick on a par |
| 8217s | bodes well for that |
| 8219s | narrative yeah par going down early now |
| 8223s | Senna has to be RI on to put out the |
| 8225s | deep but keep's going down to kred that |
| 8227s | is a good shout from trainers that the |
| 8229s | meteor strike going down Mari finding so |
| 8231s | much value santic and Z both going down |
| 8235s | what can drainers do against this power |
| 8237s | is the only one left alive and they're |
| 8239s | actually almost flipping that point over |
| 8241s | but Mari is able to chase him off |
| 8243s | wouldn't have seen combo from |
| 8245s | Mari the entire punch gets the power up |
| 8248s | on the Block the reset with meteor |
| 8250s | strike finishes everybody off credit to |
| 8252s | Zoe for timing the dash through as well |
| 8254s | to lap on even more damage on top of |
| 8256s | that but some really really impressive |
| 8258s | doomfist play again night and day from |
| 8260s | map number one for Mari what an |
| 8261s | incredible |
| 8263s | turnaround yeah I mean Mari it feels |
| 8266s | like it's like kind of a warm up you |
| 8267s | know and they've just been ramping up |
| 8269s | getting better and better every single |
| 8271s | map and she's doing well but now the |
| 8272s | anti she's in a little bit of trouble |
| 8275s | needs to try and get out get the support |
| 8276s | but Kindred is able to finish off Mario |
| 8278s | good stick from bar and now Keith goes |
| 8280s | down drainers they should be able to |
| 8282s | clean up this point and flip this point |
| 8284s | over y nice little fight for drainers |
| 8287s | they're a little bit more efficient with |
| 8288s | their ultimates now coming to next one |
| 8289s | though it is back to dead even rally up |
| 8292s | against the Nano boost and again that |
| 8294s | Nano boost we saw it last time go on to |
| 8296s | Kindred was a Target for it but in a |
| 8298s | very very different position they were |
| 8300s | the ones with rally now that microwave |
| 8302s | have rally throwing the Nano boost onto |
| 8303s | Kindred likely isn't going to kill |
| 8304s | anything because of that extra armor |
| 8306s | coming from The Brak so they have to be |
| 8308s | very careful with their application of |
| 8310s | this ultimate if your drainers if you |
| 8312s | want to find Effectiveness with |
| 8317s | it or not or or you just get a that |
| 8320s | works too okay yeah sure I was going to |
| 8323s | say maybe a good anti could get them to |
| 8325s | pick here but they're just going to |
| 8327s | start things off Mari how for taking |
| 8328s | down T is not too much value especially |
| 8331s | when you kind of have basically your |
| 8333s | entire support line missing while |
| 8336s | drainers they do have both of these |
| 8338s | support |
| 8339s | ultimat that double support ultimate now |
| 8342s | they're feeling pretty comfortable they |
| 8343s | can throw that nanab boost in without |
| 8344s | feeling bad about leaving their backline |
| 8345s | alone the anti- is huge the rally |
| 8347s | response from drainers is absolutely |
| 8349s | there though and now zep's getting in on |
| 8351s | the action oh that was such an all in |
| 8355s | from Michael wave immediately staved off |
| 8357s | by the port line nicely done now they |
| 8359s | finally secure their point and they can |
| 8360s | breathe a little bit more now but it is |
| 8362s | not over yet still match point for this |
| 8365s | next flash point for Michael wave |
| 8367s | drainers they need to hold on to this |
| 8369s | momentum I like this for Michael wave |
| 8371s | though in in trading their rally in that |
| 8373s | fight they got rally and Nano boost now |
| 8375s | a significant ultimate Advantage for |
| 8377s | Michael wave and they're they only need |
| 8379s | one point it's not like they need their |
| 8380s | ultimate advantage to extend beyond that |
| 8382s | they have nanoade to take this and first |
| 8384s | tick on flash point is so important so |
| 8386s | if they win that if Zoe pulls off |
| 8387s | another 3K it is a desperate situation |
| 8390s | for trainers oh zo close to getting seta |
| 8393s | and goes down Mari now finding so much |
| 8397s | value Kindred is the only one to take |
| 8398s | down death and they have no support here |
| 8402s | Kindred going to be taken down |
| 8404s | immediately first capture chicken dinner |
| 8406s | there for |
| 8407s | Zoe and now microwave are in a beautiful |
| 8410s | position yes trainers can come in with |
| 8412s | ultimates but by the time microwave come |
| 8413s | to retake it will be last fight if |
| 8416s | microwave find a pick God forbid in any |
| 8418s | of these situations drainers while their |
| 8420s | hopes of winning this one might just go |
| 8422s | down the drain Kindred pops up looks for |
| 8423s | an |
| 8425s | engage oh now the anti is so good the |
| 8429s | meteor strike comes down santic Falls z |
| 8432s | has to find some way to sustain this |
| 8434s | squad Kindred falling as well no tank |
| 8437s | and trainers this is looking like last F |
| 8439s | territory for them Michael wave such |
| 8441s | good picks good use of the ultimates but |
| 8444s | this is kind of a neutral for the next |
| 8445s | one death might be having an overclock |
| 8447s | coming up but otherwise they don't have |
| 8449s | anything Senna has an overclock of their |
| 8451s | own and it's really going to be the |
| 8452s | Battle of that soers s's got to get it |
| 8454s | done but death starts up with the opener |
| 8456s | s now needs to pull off a miracle in |
| 8458s | this fight tries to respond an anti- |
| 8460s | gives them an opening now slowly |
| 8462s | extending for they have to be careful |
| 8464s | not to go too far or else they enter the |
| 8465s | realm of trainers but now we enter |
| 8468s | solely the realm of death and |
| 8470s | destruction overclock means even more so |
| 8473s | is picked out of the sky a win for |
| 8476s | Michael wave and first sweep on the |
| 8480s | series Michael wave what a win and death |
| 8484s | what a play living up to their name they |
| 8487s | are indeed death the angel of death you |
| 8490s | might say if you see their name up in |
| 8492s | that kill feed you know they're coming |
| 8494s | for you next this was an excellent combo |
| 8497s | by Mari you can see why they were called |
| 8499s | the doomfist team as we were heading |
| 8502s | into this one why Mari is the doomfist |
| 8504s | tank of this tournament calling all |
| 8507s | heroes be sure to see more of Michael |
| 8509s | wave you heard them say that they might |
| 8511s | have been the villains of this |
| 8513s | tournament they're evil as they said |
| 8515s | playing the doomfist as Fable said and |
| 8517s | you can see exactly why they're evil |
| 8520s | masterminds I'm not sure I've ever seen |
| 8523s | such an anime Arc over the course of |
| 8525s | only three Maps like what a return to |
| 8528s | form for microwave they played three |
| 8531s | different compositions they showed tons |
| 8534s | of different stuff they played it all |
| 8536s | fairly well and on top of trying all of |
| 8539s | those things over the course of only |
| 8540s | three Maps which again that's that's |
| 8542s | like crazy these days to have swapped |
| 8544s | comps that many times in just three Maps |
| 8546s | like that to have started off let's be |
| 8550s | real floundering it was it was like they |
| 8552s | got rolled in map number one to then |
| 8555s | turn around and have this degree of form |
| 8557s | by map number three to have the ability |
| 8560s | to pull your team back to mentally stay |
| 8562s | in it that long over having tried that |
| 8565s | many things and bashed your head into |
| 8567s | the brick wall wall that many times only |
| 8568s | to finally see it crumble at the end of |
| 8571s | s of a my God the the sheer Constitution |
| 8576s | this team must have mentally in order to |
| 8578s | stay in it that long yeah I honestly |
| 8581s | feel like I just saw this team power |
| 8583s | crawl back into the just back into the |
| 8587s | light you know because they were like |
| 8588s | coming into it they were kind of we knew |
| 8591s | that they were going to play the |
| 8591s | doomfist we weren't really sure which |
| 8593s | one of them was going to come out on top |
| 8595s | this is very close after all overall |
| 8597s | standing third and fourth this might |
| 8598s | even be considered a little bit of an |
| 8600s | upset from Michael wave considering they |
| 8602s | are fourth in the standings while |
| 8603s | drainers is third it's a very small |
| 8606s | marginal difference but the difference |
| 8608s | is still there and now Michael wave |
| 8610s | they're going to pull ahead I don't |
| 8612s | think anybody's uh upset about that |
| 8615s | match and haven't gotten to see at least |
| 8616s | all three Maps maybe one of the teams is |
| 8618s | but you know what we only get to talk to |
| 8620s | the victors right now when we get back |
| 8621s | it's your Chipotle match MVP in your |

| 8806s | for |
| 8808s | [Music] |
| 8853s | after such a banger series we know you |
| 8856s | can't wait to find out who the Chipotle |
| 8858s | match MVP is for this one and I am |
| 8861s | really excited to announce it is Zoe we |
| 8864s | saw Zoe play a lot of that Genji and it |
| 8867s | was so good and so solid especially in |
| 8870s | that last match with some really |
| 8873s | exciting plays to come through I feel |
| 8875s | like this is the kind of Genji as well |
| 8876s | that can go so hidden under the radar I |
| 8879s | love talking about supportive DPS |
| 8881s | players it it they've throughout history |
| 8883s | I think gone underappreciated but being |
| 8885s | able to play Genji without having Nano |
| 8887s | for your blades being able to find those |
| 8888s | right dive timings with your tank and |
| 8890s | back up your sojourn at the right time |
| 8892s | Zoe was there constantly she was a real |
| 8896s | issue for the opposing decided to deal |
| 8897s | with even if she wasn't necessarily |
| 8898s | always in the kill feed which absolutely |
| 8901s | she was in that final map what a |
| 8903s | performance from the Genji to close |
| 8905s | things out deflex left right and Center |
| 8907s | as well two deflected sleeps for a |
| 8910s | couple of style points as well I I think |
| 8912s | there may be a boat in here somewhere in |
| 8914s | this little replay package for that be |
| 8916s | quiet silent play of the |
| 8918s | day I mean Zoe just did so well on these |
| 8922s | Maps the deflected sleeps were just the |
| 8924s | cherry on top of the cake that allowed |
| 8927s | them to reverse sweep this and we also |
| 8930s | have a few head-to heads for you we |
| 8932s | cannot understate the value that the |
| 8935s | entirety of Michael wave was having |
| 8937s | especially their DPS line you saw their |
| 8939s | name in The Kill feed quite a bit and I |
| 8942s | mean if you look at the head-to-head |
| 8943s | between death and Senna death getting a |
| 8945s | lot of those overclocks a lot of value |
| 8948s | from the Nano boost as well you know I |
| 8950s | want to cast our minds back after the |
| 8952s | first map we pulled up this exact same |
| 8954s | graphic and it was flipped around the |
| 8956s | enti entire different way right it was |
| 8959s | sna getting the brunt of it and it was |
| 8961s | largely because again the space that |
| 8962s | their team was making for them lot of |
| 8964s | credit to the team but of course the |
| 8965s | sojourn backing up did well death on the |
| 8968s | other hand felt more like the tip of the |
| 8970s | spear for their team and that's what I |
| 8973s | feel like was so impressive about |
| 8974s | putting up numbers like this was that |
| 8976s | death was the one engaging death was the |
| 8977s | one getting the end boost there was a |
| 8978s | lot of pressure on death shoulders to |
| 8980s | hit those shots because they 100% would |
| 8982s | not have had the the same position to |
| 8984s | follow up on had death not not put in |
| 8987s | the performance that they did in those |
| 8989s | aggressive situations and having to make |
| 8990s | the first |
| 8992s | move now we are going to have time for |
| 8995s | the interview as well we get to speak to |
| 8998s | one of these lovely players that we see |
| 9000s | on screen right now and it's going to be |
| 9002s | death on the line with us to see what |
| 9005s | they were thinking what the thought |
| 9006s | process was going into that last match |
| 9008s | so hey there death how are you |
| 9011s | feeling hi I'm good uh how are you for I |
| 9014s | guess how are you all doing we're doing |
| 9017s | great it's it's w a water day you know |
| 9020s | yeah it's always a good day to cast some |
| 9022s | calling on Heroes uh death I imagine |
| 9024s | that was either fun or or really |
| 9026s | strenuous for you to be completely |
| 9027s | honest I think I want to start this |
| 9029s | interview off and and take kind of |
| 9030s | chronologically because it was a ride |
| 9033s | for us but I imagine it was even more so |
| 9035s | for you guys so let's start off with map |
| 9036s | number one because I think we can agree |
| 9038s | it it was a bit of a rough one to start |
| 9041s | things off on Busan start me off with |
| 9043s | the first submap because you guys go |
| 9044s | doomfist into doomfist you guys are |
| 9046s | known for bringing that doomfist |
| 9047s | composition out and to get beat out with |
| 9049s | it pretty readily not once but after |
| 9051s | swapping over to the sigma composition |
| 9052s | as well getting beat on that how is that |
| 9055s | for you guys mentally and where were you |
| 9057s | at following map number one were you |
| 9059s | floundering looking for a solution or |
| 9061s | did you still have some confidence that |
| 9063s | you could pull it back despite getting |
| 9064s | beat on what it's to be perceived as |
| 9066s | your signature |
| 9068s | composition um so first map we kind of |
| 9070s | like just went into it thinking uh we're |
| 9072s | going to play like default we're going |
| 9074s | to keep our Tempo the same blah blah |
| 9076s | blah blah blah just like kind of play |
| 9077s | our game uh and then we realized |
| 9079s | drainers was playing a lot faster than |
| 9081s | us taking a lot more angles and we uh |
| 9083s | decided that if we want to beat drainers |
| 9085s | because drainers is a really good team |
| 9087s | uh if we want to beat drainers we're |
| 9088s | gonna have to play better we're gonna |
| 9089s | have to play faster and uh be proactive |
| 9091s | uh so in first map we kind of were lazy |
| 9094s | LAX uh didn't really know what to expect |
| 9096s | um and we kind of like almost beat |
| 9098s | ourselves in a way uh and then for the |
| 9100s | second and third map uh of course we |
| 9102s | started playing faster we started being |
| 9104s | more proactive taking angles calming a |
| 9105s | lot more um I think the environment of |
| 9108s | the team was like really kind of like |
| 9110s | almost like wow that just happened uh |
| 9112s | for the first map like we just got beat |
| 9114s | um and how do we come back from that uh |
| 9116s | we saw Molly's dad typing in the chat |
| 9119s | and we all kind of giggled about it and |
| 9120s | that was kind of like our spark almost |
| 9122s | um and uh so he was like go Molly uh |
| 9126s | with a whole bunch of hearts and we all |
| 9128s | kind of giggled about it and laughed and |
| 9129s | said like you know what we're gonna do |
| 9131s | this and we're gonna we're gonna hunker |
| 9132s | down and we're gonna beat this adversity |
| 9134s | and we're gonna uh we're gonna win this |
| 9136s | game so |
| 9137s | I that's the kind of thing you only get |
| 9139s | in calling on Heroes I swear I mean |
| 9141s | following that you guys did pull off the |
| 9143s | turnaround and by map number three you |
| 9145s | guys were in control of the series did |
| 9146s | you did you know it at map number three |
| 9148s | or were you not taking anything for |
| 9150s | granted um I mean when we got to map |
| 9154s | three we was like we tied it up and we |
| 9156s | knew that it's either go like do our die |
| 9158s | here um and we just put our foot on the |
| 9160s | pedal and didn't let go um we tried to |
| 9163s | run drainers for everything that way we |
| 9164s | could and uh we got away with a lot of |
| 9166s | it and so um I mean yeah just pedal to |
| 9169s | the floor |
| 9171s | so that is really impressive I mean we |
| 9174s | basically we were saying we were |
| 9175s | watching an anime Arc you know from that |
| 9177s | team that was basically got beaten right |
| 9179s | at the beginning and then all of a |
| 9181s | sudden you have the power crawl in map |
| 9183s | two slowly gaining more ground and then |
| 9185s | in map three you are just a fully |
| 9187s | powered team and that was really amazing |
| 9189s | to watch so thank you for such a good |
| 9190s | series on stream and headed forward |
| 9193s | going into this tournament a little bit |
| 9195s | further we know that on our last |
| 9198s | interview with a member of fable Arya |
| 9201s | she was saying that you guys are evil |
| 9203s | you have any response to |
| 9205s | that |
| 9206s | um H I want to say that while we may be |
| 9212s | evil in the eyes of some people in the |
| 9214s | eyes of other people we might be you |
| 9215s | know like the protagonists and like the |
| 9217s | good guys or the good girls or good th |
| 9219s | and thems um but in general uh I think I |
| 9224s | don't think we're evil I think we got |
| 9226s | some there's some internet uh internet |
| 9229s | opposition on the other other side of |
| 9231s | fable but I think all in all I think |
| 9233s | it's good fun so yeah so is there anyone |
| 9237s | that you are really excited to play |
| 9239s | against in this tournament anyone you |
| 9241s | want to potentially think that you want |
| 9242s | to beat or think you can |
| 9245s | beat um I'm excited to play against wisp |
| 9249s | um I really the Wisp Embers team uh I |
| 9251s | know a lot of those people I was on the |
| 9252s | team with them during Rift or bumblebees |
| 9255s | the prior uh and just excited to play |
| 9258s | them and see how it turns out um I think |
| 9260s | Molly fish7 is going to beat moving fish |
| 9262s | s but that's just my prediction so |
| 9267s | okay well I mean it's big predictions |
| 9269s | for the future of the tournament but you |
| 9271s | guys got more games to go so go ahead |
| 9273s | and get on to him congratulations on the |
| 9274s | win it was a hard fought one but |
| 9276s | unfortunately fortunately depending on |
| 9278s | how you look at it there's more |
| 9279s | OverWatch ahead of you thank you have a |
| 9282s | good day you as well you as well all |
| 9285s | right tala that leaves us with a very |
| 9287s | long series having been played but the |
| 9288s | good news for that is because it was |
| 9290s | such a long series that means that all |
| 9292s | the other games have kind of been played |
| 9293s | out by now let's go and take a look at |
| 9295s | the standings and see how the Swiss |
| 9296s | stage is starting to shake out for most |
| 9298s | of these teams unsurprisingly to |
| 9300s | literally everybody Timeless ethereal is |
| 9302s | sitting at two and zero alongside four |
| 9305s | other teams at Vancouver Titans blue uh |
| 9307s | kunoichi cgl nyxl Embers also known as |
| 9311s | wisp you heard them talking about it |
| 9312s | right now with death Michael wave as |
| 9315s | well at 2 and0 but those one one teams |
| 9317s | do not take them for granted these |
| 9319s | onetoone teams I mean every single Squad |
| 9322s | in this tournament is such a force to be |
| 9324s | reckoned with but coming out on top |
| 9326s | Vancouver Titans blue we were talking |
| 9328s | about it a little bit earlier with those |
| 9330s | circuit point standings they're kind of |
| 9332s | right on the edge of qualification so |
| 9334s | definitely a very good start for them |
| 9336s | here in the Swiss stage yeah for the |
| 9338s | name of any team wanting to get in over |
| 9341s | top of fable over top of nyxl Embers |
| 9343s | you're looking at their head to head so |
| 9344s | VT blue versus nyxl Embers versus Fable |
| 9347s | there two very important matches that |
| 9349s | can go on in the Swifts stage and we'll |
| 9350s | keep our eyes peeled for him you guys |
| 9352s | should as well though cuz like I said |

| 9803s | comfortable maybe even pull out some |
| 9805s | popcorn for the last Swiss Sage matchup |
| 9808s | for day one of radiant Heroes major 3 I |
| 9811s | am incredibly excited for this one we |
| 9813s | saw a great best of three series and now |
| 9816s | we're going to see another one Timeless |
| 9818s | ethereal versus Vancouver Titans blue |
| 9821s | and I swear this is the exact same |
| 9823s | picture that they use for Michael wave |
| 9826s | it's a it's a great cat no it's a great |
| 9829s | cat are you kidding me regardless of the |
| 9832s | the seriousness or lack thereof of the |
| 9834s | the team pictures Timeless ethereal |
| 9836s | don't don't let them fool you this is |
| 9838s | the most dangerous team in col they |
| 9840s | don't mess around they have won they do |
| 9842s | three calling all heroes events back to |
| 9845s | back to back that is two minors and a |
| 9847s | major and the gap between them and |
| 9849s | everybody else is only widened and you |
| 9851s | bear up against this team that seems |
| 9852s | like a wall that seems like a mountain |
| 9855s | and you look at them like their monsters |
| 9856s | and then they pick all Lucio for their |
| 9858s | hero portraits and you're wondering dear |
| 9860s | God what is going on in their |
| 9862s | minds all they do is mess around but |
| 9865s | when it comes down to the game they are |
| 9867s | not messing around at all they are so |
| 9870s | serious about winning this one out and |
| 9872s | Vancouver Titans blue we talked about it |
| 9874s | a little bit before the break they are |
| 9876s | right on the cusp of being in that |
| 9878s | qualification cut off they're currently |
| 9880s | seventh in the standings and the top six |
| 9883s | qualify so this is incredibly important |
| 9886s | matchup for them while Timeless ethereal |
| 9888s | it's almost as if they basically have |
| 9890s | their spot secured the last three |
| 9892s | calling all heroes events Timeless |
| 9894s | etheral won every single one I mean it's |
| 9897s | really tough for any team to even touch |
| 9899s | them even the team in second place |
| 9901s | points wise is kind of calculated not |
| 9903s | necessarily out of it but for the most |
| 9905s | part nobody can touch this team not to |
| 9907s | mention you've got to beat him if you |
| 9909s | want to touch him and nobody can beat |
| 9910s | this team either the last team this or |
| 9912s | the last time this team showed up in |
| 9913s | bracket they went undefeated not a |
| 9916s | single map dropped through the entirety |
| 9918s | of the bracket stage so like you got to |
| 9920s | be very very careful with how you take |
| 9923s | them on but I think there's no greater |
| 9924s | test for Vancouver Titans blue who need |
| 9928s | a massive Victory they are sitting |
| 9929s | outside of that top six right now the |
| 9931s | top six that qualify to go on to the |
| 9933s | championship if they want to do so it |
| 9936s | will take placing somewhere along the |
| 9938s | lines of second or third and beating |
| 9940s | both Wisp and at least one of these |
| 9942s | other top teams while they're at it and |
| 9944s | this is absolutely a start to proving |
| 9946s | that they can do that that they can hang |
| 9948s | with the best of the best that they |
| 9949s | deserve to go to that |
| 9951s | championship and Vancouver Titans blue |
| 9953s | with what they're teasing right now it |
| 9955s | seems like they're leaning into that |
| 9957s | Sigma M we we literally just can't make |
| 9959s | predictions with the hero tease that we |
| 9961s | got from from Timeless ethereal because |
| 9964s | they were like yeah we're all we're all |
| 9966s | Lucio but we know from this that |
| 9968s | Vancouver Titans they can lean into this |
| 9971s | very Pokey meta or kind of play that |
| 9973s | Sigma brawl yeah I think both these |
| 9976s | teams are at the point where they have |
| 9977s | the flexibility to kind of lean into |
| 9979s | whatever it is that they want to do I |
| 9980s | think most of that change comes in the |
| 9982s | DPS line but I'm scared if anything of |
| 9985s | that Timeless DPS line bun and wisps oh |
| 9989s | goodness gracious you have your hands |
| 9991s | full if your Vancouver Titans blue I |
| 9993s | think trying to play a pokey style is |
| 9995s | asking for a death sentence you need to |
| 9997s | take this team head on and you need to |
| 9998s | fight them as a team because |
| 10000s | mechanically I think they can outclass |
| 10001s | virtually everybody here yeah Timeless |
| 10004s | ethereal also just so so much tournament |
| 10006s | experience between the roster that they |
| 10008s | have it feels like it's so impossible to |
| 10010s | touch them but we're going to see what |
| 10012s | comes up on this very first map and I'm |
| 10015s | curious what compositions we're going to |
| 10017s | see come out of Timeless ethereal we saw |
| 10019s | a little bit of that doomfist maybe a |
| 10021s | little bit unique in The Meta control on |
| 10023s | Samoa is that first M yeah Samoa I think |
| 10026s | again doesn't change too much control is |
| 10027s | going to play out pretty well for Sigma |
| 10029s | compositions and the brawl kind of no |
| 10030s | matter how you want to shake things down |
| 10033s | but it comes down to the teams and how |
| 10034s | they want to play it the big things that |
| 10035s | we want to point out we'll kind of do it |
| 10036s | on a map by map basis again Samoa is |
| 10039s | relatively new and each of the points |
| 10040s | does Play Pretty differently but each of |
| 10042s | them also has an analog over on another |
| 10045s | map somewhere the one that we're looking |
| 10046s | at right now that High Ground over on |
| 10048s | the far side kind of what we're looking |
| 10050s | at then there's of course the kind of |
| 10051s | City centeres circular point that is |
| 10054s | also available to these teams both of |
| 10056s | which the signal composition has the |
| 10058s | opportunity to play at range play a |
| 10059s | little pokier on I think what we're |
| 10061s | looking at though is the tanks on this |
| 10064s | particular map to be able to shift their |
| 10066s | game plan depending on the architecture |
| 10068s | of the map and also depending on what |
| 10070s | the team wants to do whether they want |
| 10072s | to get in aggressively or play further |
| 10074s | back with poke starting off here we get |
| 10076s | to go to that circular point I was |
| 10078s | talking about earlier be playing more |
| 10080s | towards the coastal side of this map if |
| 10082s | they want to play the Poke game and more |
| 10083s | towards that interior far side if they |
| 10086s | want to get things a little bit more |
| 10088s | down and dirty if they want to brawl |
| 10089s | things |
| 10091s | out okay well everyone on Timeless |
| 10094s | ethereal has a named bu except for V |
| 10097s | just the fun fact of the day as we get |
| 10099s | things started over here Timeless |
| 10101s | ethereal from what they're teasing us at |
| 10103s | the beginning it seems like it's going |
| 10105s | to be the Sigma versus Sigma composition |
| 10108s | but it's going to be more Broly with the |
| 10109s | may as a secondary and what I can only |
| 10112s | assume is going to switch over to the |
| 10114s | sojourn after they get the initial |
| 10116s | symmetra CP and so it's exactly what I |
| 10118s | was talking about I like this from |
| 10119s | Vancouver Titans blue I was talking look |
| 10121s | trying to dual bun and wisps on |
| 10124s | DPS for virtually anybody look Von and |
| 10126s | what you're you're you're great you |
| 10127s | probably can hold your own but there's |
| 10129s | no need to risk it they can fight as a |
| 10131s | team and they will both teams move |
| 10133s | towards that Brer side of the map that I |
| 10135s | was talking about though Timeless |
| 10136s | ethereal get a bit of a better position |
| 10138s | as they can play off the mega pack |
| 10140s | that's in the Polynesian League |
| 10142s | building yeah cat already falling very |
| 10144s | low early into this first brawl and |
| 10146s | having to kind of disengage around the |
| 10148s | point falling just weaving in and out of |
| 10151s | this Shield while the disruptor shop |
| 10153s | comes out from Timeless ethereal and you |
| 10155s | can see from the health bars that |
| 10156s | they're basically almost all full health |
| 10158s | sniper getting isolated a little bit |
| 10160s | they're going to need some help whsp |
| 10161s | it's able to take down phone and all of |
| 10162s | a sudden all that damage that was coming |
| 10164s | through is just shredded now bun zoning |
| 10167s | out that Sigma able to force out the |
| 10169s | immortality field and that cool down |
| 10171s | goes through CLA Goes Down clean for a |
| 10174s | Fike from Timeless ethereal I think you |
| 10176s | can actually attribute a lot of this to |
| 10177s | the roll out of the teams Timeless |
| 10179s | etherial got to that Polynesian League |
| 10180s | building like 5 10 seconds before VT |
| 10183s | blew both of them CTP to which I'm not |
| 10186s | sure what VT blue did that made them |
| 10189s | that much slower getting there but times |
| 10190s | theal were very quick and they got a |
| 10192s | much better position for it now they get |
| 10193s | to hold this spawn this is something |
| 10195s | that is uh becoming fairly common on |
| 10197s | this map it's a good spawn hold |
| 10198s | opportunity forces the team to take two |
| 10199s | fights if they want to take that point |
| 10201s | and time has plenty of room to disengage |
| 10203s | things like this amplification Matrix |
| 10205s | should they |
| 10206s | want yeah they I mean they force the |
| 10208s | positioning force them a little bit far |
| 10210s | back and they gain a bit of ground oh |
| 10211s | the gravitic flux this hits so many of |
| 10214s | them that is so good they have to force |
| 10216s | out the immortality field here but they |
| 10218s | also get to take the space so far back |
| 10220s | and they have nowhere to run this wall |
| 10222s | is so good it's the sigma 1 V one but |
| 10224s | sniper just had more Health to begin |
| 10226s | with and sniper once again oh s almost |
| 10230s | back into the spawn oh don't emote don't |
| 10232s | emote no oh no |
| 10234s | stop Halo chill out please oh no she and |
| 10239s | they're making a Snowman in their spawn |
| 10242s | KN knock it over Vancouver Titans blue |
| 10245s | your it's your Canadian right to not |
| 10247s | have a snowman built on |
| 10249s | you going oh God it is a nightmare now |
| 10252s | for cat who backs away a sound barrier |
| 10254s | set by BT just trying to keep themselves |
| 10256s | alive in their own spawn but it is a |
| 10259s | nightmare of a fight yeah the |
| 10261s | immortality field does come through whsp |
| 10264s | has to pick out the overlock and sniper |
| 10266s | actually finally does get shredded a lot |
| 10268s | of damage being done here but saona is |
| 10270s | able to get over the top of that mayw |
| 10272s | and try and Chase down with not going to |
| 10274s | have to get done here but still going to |
| 10277s | go back and Bun still trying to harass |
| 10279s | them back into their spawn not going to |
| 10280s | work now the overtime activated on the |
| 10282s | point at 99% waiting for the regroup |
| 10285s | from sniper it's actually a hamster ball |
| 10287s | that comes through trying to see what |
| 10289s | the Hammond can get done the disruption |
| 10291s | onto the backline but Halo going down |
| 10294s | they need to not get distracted too much |
| 10296s | otherwise you might get shot in the side |
| 10297s | of the head by so but instead they do |
| 10299s | deal with it beautifully Vancouver |
| 10301s | Titans blue they they smack back no you |
| 10305s | may not Build a Snowman in our spawn |
| 10307s | they say we draw the line there Halo |
| 10309s | though doesn't care flare and now it's |
| 10313s | just about getting a clean engagement |
| 10314s | off time etheral which they do with the |
| 10315s | help |
| 10316s | of oh bun that was really nice but K |
| 10319s | down saona and now where is the backline |
| 10322s | for VT blue they are nowhere to be found |
| 10324s | chase down the May yep and whs takes |
| 10327s | that one down there should be able to |
| 10329s | clear this first |
| 10332s | point over time down and okay time are |
| 10335s | uh making some work of this map so far |
| 10339s | but I will say the spawn advantage of |
| 10341s | the spawn Camp thing that they were |
| 10343s | doing less effective on some of the |
| 10344s | other Maps here on |
| 10346s | Samoa that was definitely a tough watch |
| 10348s | for the first one Vancouver Titans blue |
| 10350s | I Hope they've got more in store here on |
| 10352s | this map this one a little less uh |
| 10355s | symmetra focused on the first roll outs |
| 10357s | this High Ground that we're staring at |
| 10359s | on the back side of the point is vitally |
| 10361s | important whichever team can gain |
| 10362s | control of that and get their DPS or |
| 10364s | support set up there is going to feel |
| 10366s | pretty good about their odds of winning |
| 10368s | that first fight BT blue though may try |
| 10370s | and circumvent that with a doomfist pick |
| 10372s | and cause him havoc in the backline yeah |
| 10374s | whis's already getting a lot of damage |
| 10377s | down very early and this is just so |
| 10380s | nicely done thus far but I mean bun has |
| 10382s | already gotten a lot of damage as well |
| 10384s | for anyone who's curious 3,600 which is |
| 10387s | quite a bit now rolling out onto this |
| 10390s | map they're already on that High Ground |
| 10392s | over on the right side of the map |
| 10394s | getting into that little room but FN |
| 10395s | being taken down early by phone and now |
| 10397s | sniper isolated from the rest of the |
| 10399s | squad not sure sniper can get out nice |
| 10401s | start for Vancouver Titan okay Vancouver |
| 10404s | tit blue yes they win the fight I want |
| 10405s | to say great job because it's important |
| 10407s | for them how did Timeless get to the |
| 10409s | roll out point so much quicker again |
| 10412s | just go check the map because it's |
| 10414s | really important how quick to make that |
| 10415s | roll it happen and they're so |
| 10416s | significantly quicker every single time |
| 10419s | I I don't know it's a point cap for VT |
| 10421s | blue though and we can talk about the |
| 10422s | roll outs later this is uh a little bit |
| 10425s | iffy for Timeless now as the percentage |
| 10427s | begins to tick up no they were |
| 10429s | practicing their roll outs for sure it's |
| 10432s | important that you do you should yeah V2 |
| 10435s | blue now have a choke point to hold they |
| 10437s | get walled off but cat gets pick on bun |
| 10439s | and this is the advantage of getting |
| 10440s | this High Ground early did do get to |
| 10442s | hold the opposing team to these choke |
| 10444s | points etheral is going to have their |
| 10445s | work cut out for them trying to push |
| 10448s | up this is really good from BT blue thus |
| 10452s | far does get a little bit low and |
| 10455s | they're trying to isolate out sniper |
| 10457s | once again able to get a little bit of |
| 10458s | that Health back as they regroup with |
| 10460s | the support line and now we're going to |
| 10462s | have cat back off a bit more still not |
| 10464s | quite the ultimate but Claire has that |
| 10466s | amp Matrix from Vancouver Titans blue to |
| 10468s | potentially force a little bit of |
| 10470s | positioning and there's the am matx come |
| 10472s | through the gravitic flux from cat to |
| 10474s | follow up on the rest of them and now we |
| 10476s | know exactly where bun is hiding in that |
| 10480s | little corner not really many places to |
| 10483s | go just okay in a corner a little over |
| 10487s | all right that SI by by VT blue what |
| 10489s | they actually called for there was back |
| 10491s | up from the choke point so that Timeless |
| 10493s | etheral had to walk into the choke point |
| 10495s | where they're more susceptible to the |
| 10496s | flux from cat and then that game plan |
| 10498s | just went basically perfectly for them |
| 10500s | now time to the on the back foot VT blue |
| 10502s | won that fight with only one ultimate |
| 10504s | and now you have to play on |
| 10505s | amplification Matrix on The High Ground |
| 10507s | and a blizzard as you walk their choke |
| 10509s | what a nightmare for |
| 10512s | Timeless yeah I mean the pasting of the |
| 10514s | ulates is so good the grick flux does |
| 10516s | come through from sniper to try and come |
| 10519s | uh force them through but sound barrier |
| 10520s | immediately just negates all that damage |
| 10523s | the blizzard both of them coming out and |
| 10526s | look at sniper or cat just being |
| 10528s | isolated by the blizzard whsp with the |
| 10531s | overclock is able to get so much value |
| 10533s | off the back of buns blizzard and the |
| 10535s | DPS line from Timeless ethereal finally |
| 10537s | clean things up right as it hits 98% I |
| 10540s | mean that's a play you only get to make |
| 10542s | If You're Timeless ethereal only |
| 10544s | timeless get to make that play cuz they |
| 10546s | had nobody they had a blizzard and a |
| 10548s | souljour in a prayer against like five |
| 10550s | people but because you have bun Whispers |
| 10552s | on your team it's just like you can try |
| 10554s | that you can do that that's like not |
| 10555s | unreasonable VT blue had the upper hand |
| 10557s | the entire rest of the fight but |
| 10559s | fortunately they still do have 98% to |
| 10561s | work with in an overclock of their own |
| 10563s | if they can just get past this sound |
| 10565s | barrier yeah sound barrier is out by |
| 10569s | Halo and it's going to allow so much of |
| 10571s | them survive that was such a good save |
| 10574s | from Halo to keep Timeless ethereal in |
| 10576s | the fight and now the overclock from |
| 10578s | what finds no value IM mortality field |
| 10580s | has been forced out that cool down is |
| 10582s | gone and seona just overextends over the |
| 10584s | wall and gets shredded by bun Halo |
| 10587s | looking to try and push a few of them |
| 10589s | off further away from the map and it |
| 10591s | seems like the point isn't going to be |
| 10593s | touched at all nicely done from Timeless |
| 10596s | superial no dude z z man's my goat did |
| 10599s | you see that amplication Matrix shoved |
| 10601s | in the inches between the May wall and |
| 10603s | the building's wall that save that's |
| 10605s | what saves sniper not the sound the |
| 10607s | sound barrier came after yes it help but |
| 10609s | the emmo was put into the smallest of |
| 10612s | crevices to have Los on that Sigma that |
| 10613s | was insane now they've got more |
| 10616s | ultimates to actually take on BT blue |
| 10617s | Here and Now BT blue I mean you can |
| 10619s | engage with the flux you can engage with |
| 10621s | the implication Matrix but those both of |
| 10623s | those can be disengaged if time let play |
| 10624s | their cards |
| 10626s | right BL from cat try and start things |
| 10629s | off it forces them out of the choke |
| 10631s | point but we still have ultimates coming |
| 10633s | through sniper now having the G of clut |
| 10635s | there's the immortality field as well |
| 10637s | but the blizzard is going to finish |
| 10639s | everything off where is player going to |
| 10641s | go it seems like they might be able to |
| 10643s | escape for a second but whisk comes |
| 10645s | through just in time with the overclock |
| 10647s | and now it's the spawn hold time they're |
| 10649s | at 92% they want to fight this forward |
| 10652s | operation stop all touches is a go cat |
| 10655s | looks like they may have skimped past |
| 10658s | the majority of time is oh my God that |
| 10660s | close H the large hit box of wrecking |
| 10662s | ball though does Bode over the time not |
| 10666s | sure it buys any more than that though |
| 10668s | for a team that has been put down by |
| 10670s | Timeless ethereal relatively un |
| 10672s | ceremoniously but you got to get through |
| 10674s | kind where 2 here there is a chance with |
| 10676s | that sound barrier and the somra coming |
| 10678s | back here for BT BL T have overend but I |
| 10680s | think they've recovered quite nicely by |
| 10682s | utilizing that High Ground yeah saona |
| 10685s | came in clutch with the sound barrier |
| 10687s | but I don't think it's going to be |
| 10688s | enough what gets taken down and then |
| 10691s | Timeless the seral they are going to |
| 10693s | finish off some no in a 2 |
| 10697s | fashion I'm just glad the second map |
| 10700s | didn't look like the first Vancouver |
| 10701s | Titans blue got a really solid hold in |
| 10703s | there utilize The High Ground some |
| 10704s | awesome fight planning going down the |
| 10707s | fact that this play here is what it took |
| 10710s | in order for Timeless to bring it back |
| 10712s | like that's good that means you're |
| 10714s | pushing Timeless to the brink when you |
| 10715s | make them make plays like this in order |
| 10717s | to be get yeah when they are forced to |
| 10720s | play to that level I mean Vancouver |
| 10722s | Titans they definitely had timeless |
| 10724s | ethereal for a moment on the back foot |
| 10727s | on that second submap and it looked for |
| 10729s | a while like they were going to be able |
| 10730s | to make it to the third submap but |
| 10732s | unfortunately or fortunately that was |
| 10735s | quite a play from the DPS line and we |
| 10737s | already talked about how they have such |
| 10740s | good raw mechanics and so much |
| 10742s | tournament experience bun and wisp it's |
| 10744s | so hard to get past the two of them yeah |
| 10746s | and you're going to have to try it for a |
| 10747s | second map remember it's a first to two |
| 10750s | there is very little time to figure out |
| 10751s | exactly what you want to do Kings Row |
| 10753s | and Midtown are the picks of choice here |
| 10756s | for Vancouver Titans blue I look I've |
| 10758s | been wrong every time I've predicted |
| 10760s | this map granted the differences between |
| 10761s | Kings and Midtown are they play somewhat |
| 10765s | similar for the most part but I do |
| 10768s | suspect it's probably Kings just for |
| 10769s | comfortability sake and also I think the |
| 10771s | opportunity to go back to that symmetra |
| 10773s | is not unwelcome for Vancouver Titans |
| 10775s | blue I think they can play it pretty |
| 10777s | well it's just been a matter of roll |
| 10779s | outs ironically being the difference and |
| 10782s | then on top of that just not being in |
| 10785s | winning positions always having to |
| 10786s | attack in on Timeless but if they can |
| 10788s | play that smra composition come off on |
| 10790s | the front foot for a fight come off |
| 10792s | ahead for a little bit they're great at |
| 10794s | holding that |
| 10796s | position yeah I mean that was just |
| 10799s | really it was we talked about the roll |
| 10801s | outs as well when you're both kind of |
| 10803s | coming from the same place and it's like |
| 10805s | there's the same amount of distance but |
| 10807s | somehow you they come out faster even |
| 10809s | though you're playing the same |
| 10810s | composition what's going on there and |
| 10812s | that's not really going to be as much of |
| 10814s | problem on a hybrid map because you have |
| 10816s | so much time to get in position if |
| 10817s | you're on the defense so at the very |
| 10819s | least there is that yeah that issue has |
| 10821s | been solved I don't know I don't want to |
| 10822s | like dive too deep into it because it is |
| 10825s | like it's a niche topic it's not the |
| 10826s | most important thing ever but like they |
| 10829s | were just weirdly like significantly |
| 10831s | faster I have no clue what it was but |
| 10833s | nevertheless we take a look at the |
| 10834s | head-to-head here Z versus Claire in the |
| 10838s | Damage Done DPS Baptist yeah I mean to |
| 10842s | be fair we say we say d DPS but did you |
| 10845s | see that immortality field I I need a |
| 10847s | replay on that at the end of the series |
| 10849s | or something just something in slow mode |
| 10851s | that was one of the best Emos I've seen |
| 10853s | in a tournament in a fat minute not to |
| 10855s | mention the DPS to back it up but let's |
| 10857s | be real when your team's holding that |
| 10858s | far forward you expect a little bit of |
| 10860s | DPS to come out of your B yeah the B I |
| 10863s | mean especially the amp Matrix that were |
| 10865s | being charged out up quite a bit being |
| 10868s | able to just Spam so much damage through |
| 10870s | that and the amount of space that was |
| 10872s | given to that backline now headed on to |
| 10875s | map two it is going to be uh it's going |
| 10879s | to be Vancouver Titans blue map pick and |
| 10881s | were you saying Kings Row do I have a |
| 10883s | Kings Row I'm thinking Kings I don't |
| 10885s | think the difference matters all that |
| 10887s | much to be honest like the the game |
| 10888s | doesn't change I think we're saying |
| 10889s | Sigma V Sigma for this and the |
| 10892s | adjustments that Vancouver Titans need |
| 10893s | to make are largely in just kind of |
| 10895s | patching a couple holes in the ship but |
| 10897s | none of those holes were going to sync |
| 10898s | it on their own at the very least right |
| 10901s | it's mechanical differences it's slight |
| 10903s | positioning alteration |
| 10904s | but by and large time I think have |
| 10906s | ridden on top of a lot of their |
| 10907s | mechanical prowess and then also the |
| 10909s | tank play has been so so good from |
| 10912s | sniper who has I think positionally |
| 10915s | gotten some very very good positions |
| 10916s | especially playing into a May that was |
| 10918s | doing a great job of Walling them off |
| 10920s | doing that is |
| 10922s | tough yep headed on to Kings Row three |
| 10925s | kings rows in a row going into the next |
| 10929s | one and seeing that Sigma I'm not going |
| 10931s | to be surprised seeing a lot of that |
| 10932s | sojourn as well may as the secondary DPS |
| 10936s | I'm thinking might be switched over to |
| 10938s | something more dive heavy maybe we're |
| 10940s | going to see a little bit of that Ekko |
| 10942s | or the Genji which we saw on the last |
| 10944s | map of Kings Row but I am not entirely |
| 10947s | sure if these DPS players are going to |
| 10950s | be want to switch more to something that |
| 10952s | seems like a dive rather than a brawl |
| 10955s | yeah I mean for once I you I have been |
| 10958s | known to be the proprietor of like |
| 10959s | pulling the red lever and going for the |
| 10961s | the big swap sooner rather than later |
| 10964s | especially in best of Threes right but I |
| 10967s | don't for once I don't think it's time |
| 10970s | like I know Vancouver's blue just showed |
| 10972s | me enough in that one map for me to |
| 10976s | think that like okay this is probably |
| 10977s | the best comp for them to do this on |
| 10979s | when they're playing well when they're |
| 10980s | on the front foot they know exactly what |
| 10982s | they need to do to win the fights it's |
| 10984s | just come down to aim and space and the |
| 10988s | smaller bits of the EB and flow of the |
| 10990s | fight for Sniper being able to make |
| 10992s | maybe a little bit more space for their |
| 10994s | team to get some action with but by and |
| 10996s | large I do think this is kind of the |
| 10998s | Prime edition of Vancouver Titans blue |
| 11000s | they're just going up against an |
| 11001s | opponent that kind of has no equal at |
| 11003s | this point in time yeah I mean Timeless |
| 11006s | ethereal they have been so dominant in |
| 11009s | the calling all Hero circuit thus far |
| 11011s | like we said winning the last three |
| 11012s | calling all heroes events and it's not |
| 11015s | even just winning the events it's |
| 11016s | winning them dominantly on a 26 map win |
| 11020s | streak if you consider them a |
| 11022s | continuation of Washington Timeless so |
| 11026s | if they win this once again 27 map win |
| 11033s | streak only gets bigger yeah imagine |
| 11035s | they make it through imagine they make |
| 11037s | it through this bracket clean oh man |
| 11039s | yeah I mean as if they weren't a big |
| 11041s | enough problem already I'm not sure who |
| 11043s | can actually put a dent in the armor |
| 11045s | again like VT blue they made them make |
| 11049s | that overclock play which I think is a |
| 11051s | good sign but with the best of three |
| 11054s | there's only so much time to pull this |
| 11055s | thing back they're going to try it again |
| 11057s | this time with the same composition so |
| 11059s | again like I said they feel like it's |
| 11061s | working I feel like the the puzzle |
| 11063s | pieces are there for it to work all they |
| 11065s | need is a little bit more of that junis |
| 11067s | W all they need is a a little sprinkle |
| 11069s | of some magic from the DPS from the tank |
| 11071s | line finding those picks finding those |
| 11073s | smaller advantages that kind of snowball |
| 11076s | over the course of the map if they want |
| 11077s | to get it done little opener shot though |
| 11079s | from whis will be the start there not |
| 11081s | somebody you want to Peak |
| 11084s | just ignoring the sigma at the very |
| 11087s | first moment actually seeking for the |
| 11089s | Widow a little bit longer why not let's |
| 11091s | force it forward but sniper is actually |
| 11093s | going to be the one to get that first |
| 11095s | honestly sniper switching over to that |
| 11098s | DPS and Bun now on the tank as well so |
| 11101s | we're seeing some M play out of sniper |
| 11104s | and now they've already forced them off |
| 11106s | the point okay B two for Titans blue |
| 11108s | they had good defensive positioning they |
| 11110s | had everything they needed but they are |
| 11112s | just falling apart I think the fact |
| 11114s | alone that bun is on tank here is |
| 11116s | probably just stun locked VT blue out of |
| 11118s | the a point like you see that and you're |
| 11120s | just like okay you can have it we got to |
| 11122s | we got to take some time to react to |
| 11123s | this |
| 11125s | one should be |
| 11127s | yeah yeah they're trying to recover from |
| 11130s | it they're forcing them very far forward |
| 11132s | and there's some overextensions from |
| 11133s | Timeless material for sure but they |
| 11135s | should still be able to cap the point |
| 11137s | fully that's the payload and they should |
| 11139s | be onto the street space now grapple up |
| 11142s | from whis who look at the create a quick |
| 11144s | little clip here put some people to |
| 11147s | sleep make a bid towards that be quiet |
| 11149s | silent play of the day but a last VT |
| 11152s | blue back up to the choke the nice part |
| 11153s | here for Timeless is that well I was |
| 11155s | going to say they have to break choke |
| 11156s | but if this Sigma gets walled off like |
| 11158s | that I don't think they're uh they're |
| 11159s | going to have nearly as hard a time of |
| 11161s | doing so especially with Wisps in on the |
| 11163s | flank wait is that a that's the craziest |
| 11166s | ant Matrix I've ever seen they zman |
| 11170s | amplification mat passed the enemy team |
| 11172s | so that the flank Widow could use |
| 11174s | it yeah that was I mean there is some |
| 11177s | crazy coordination happening on Timeless |
| 11179s | etherial side whis unfortunately doesn't |
| 11181s | get that pick off the flank going for a |
| 11184s | really sneaky play you know trying to |
| 11186s | snatch away that silent play of the day |
| 11188s | but they do see that bapti and aren't |
| 11190s | able to get the pick here now with saona |
| 11192s | toting down the sound barrier as this |
| 11194s | lizzard comes through and the gravitic |
| 11196s | flux right as the sound barrier Runs Out |
| 11199s | fun is actually getting very low and now |
| 11201s | wall off there is nowhere |
| 11204s | bu to |
| 11205s | go did did the grapple go off then they |
| 11208s | got rocked the I don't know that was |
| 11210s | awkward for whis but nevertheless make |
| 11213s | Titans blue I I only offer up one word |
| 11215s | of warning is that is don't overextend |
| 11216s | in Timeless they will punish you but for |
| 11219s | now they've got a choke point to hold |
| 11221s | which is fantastic for them into the |
| 11222s | Widowmaker the Widowmaker has a way |
| 11224s | harder time breaking this than something |
| 11225s | like the sojin that can kind of |
| 11226s | overclock and slide through no well my I |
| 11230s | have I don't have a cat named butt but |
| 11232s | my cat is currently griefing me and I do |
| 11234s | not know what is going on but now back |
| 11236s | into the game we're looking at Vancouver |
| 11238s | Titan slooh still holding this point |
| 11241s | Timeless theal trying to force their way |
| 11243s | through bun on the other side of the |
| 11244s | choke but whis's unable to find the |
| 11246s | finishers right now can't really find |
| 11248s | the picks out cat getting very low saona |
| 11251s | has to go ahead and get the amp it up |
| 11253s | from Lucio to try and keep the tank |
| 11255s | alive while phone is locked into this 2v |
| 11258s | one with sniper not a lot of places to |
| 11261s | go ice block already used but sniper is |
| 11263s | able to find saona and without the |
| 11265s | support that may goes down yeah time the |
| 11267s | will now finally break that choke point |
| 11269s | Titans BL took some some decent time off |
| 11271s | the bank but now things get a little |
| 11273s | easier for the widowmakers these |
| 11274s | Sidelines are far far more favorable for |
| 11280s | wisps Street space finally locked out of |
| 11283s | that choke point and they're able to get |
| 11285s | through inching closer the second |
| 11290s | Point sound can't deal with both Lu and |
| 11294s | the blizzard is a bit of a problem here |
| 11295s | for VT blue or rather th etheral so the |
| 11298s | blizzard comes out they try to disengage |
| 11299s | it but the wall alongside it is |
| 11301s | fantastic another blizzard though it's |
| 11302s | bit of a winter wonderland and here on |
| 11304s | King's Row cat drop low the immortality |
| 11306s | field keeps everyone up it is the same |
| 11308s | game we started out on except now Halos |
| 11310s | down sand sound barrier BT blue hold the |
| 11314s | weapons in their holster namely that |
| 11316s | flux and the overclock but they don't |
| 11318s | want to overextend now having played |
| 11320s | their cards too close to their chest |
| 11321s | means that bone goes down to a flanking |
| 11323s | whis and it gets |
| 11326s | worse sniper able to |
| 11330s | finda still can't build up to that sound |
| 11333s | barrier and now you just has Whisk on |
| 11335s | the Widow flank spamming down the shots |
| 11338s | from behind and all of a sudden VT blue |
| 11341s | they crumble it seems like this should |
| 11344s | be a second Point capture but they |
| 11346s | should be able to re-engage at the last |
| 11348s | second they're not going for it though |
| 11351s | Al's having a bit too much fun with the |
| 11352s | Emos this game |
| 11354s | yeah Halo is uh I I love it I love it |
| 11357s | she's great Halo's payload |
| 11359s | princess she's been playing a good game |
| 11361s | on L like all jokes aside Downes play FL |
| 11365s | out no response Rock and the most of the |
| 11367s | damage eaten by the kinetic grass oh not |
| 11370s | the drink oh God into the with cat cre |
| 11373s | right off the edge oh cat losing cat |
| 11376s | early is so devastating for Vancouver |
| 11379s | Titans blue especially with the amount |
| 11380s | of uh momentum that Timeless Imperial |
| 11382s | has for already build up what is trying |
| 11385s | to answer overclock has already gone and |
| 11387s | not able to find a pick with it D Man |
| 11390s | however the DPS bapti of the game is |
| 11392s | able to find so much value and just |
| 11395s | spamming away at the shots amp Matrix |
| 11397s | still in the back pocket can force the |
| 11399s | positioning forc them inside of their |
| 11401s | spawn and whis has such a good high |
| 11403s | position now with the gravitic Lu there |
| 11406s | is nowhere for VT blue to go where are |
| 11409s | they supposed to go and with sound |
| 11411s | barrier now through this is the only |
| 11413s | thing that can get them out of their |
| 11414s | spawn and force them past choke point |
| 11416s | but wisp is just left unchecked |
| 11420s | above jump in whis wants a piece of what |
| 11423s | right now oh we get the duel we get the |
| 11425s | Widow duel this is what really matters I |
| 11427s | don't care about the map results I don't |
| 11428s | care about the series results who wins |
| 11429s | the Widow duel he get what he get no no |
| 11434s | duel instead just a map finish the |
| 11437s | Timeless score yeah I can't get to it in |
| 11441s | time I mean what was pretty scared as as |
| 11443s | soon as they heard one of those shots |
| 11444s | from whis headed their way now a full |
| 11448s | capture with 2 minutes left that is so |
| 11451s | good for Timeless ethereal and it seemed |
| 11453s | like Vancouver Titans they were having |
| 11455s | this moment of Brilliance in the straet |
| 11456s | space when they were able to keep them |
| 11458s | in their choke point for so long despite |
| 11460s | the ultimates despite the amp Matrix for |
| 11462s | the flanking Widow Timeless seem to be |
| 11464s | stalled but then all of a sudden the |
| 11466s | momentum goes and it goes and it goes |
| 11467s | and it's a snowball rolling down the |
| 11469s | hill and it's an avalanche and VT blue |
| 11471s | just get buried |
| 11475s | now good luck you have to match that |
| 11477s | smile a tall out for VT blue but again |
| 11480s | there' have been good fights moments of |
| 11482s | Brilliance for |
| 11483s | them time etheral stay on the Widowmaker |
| 11486s | which I think is actually really good |
| 11487s | for VT blue it's one thing on the |
| 11488s | attacking side to say hey you know what |
| 11490s | we can just like keep respawning in |
| 11492s | taking pot shots at you on the |
| 11494s | Widowmaker but in defense if the |
| 11496s | Widowmaker dies like she's not coming |
| 11498s | back for the next fight you basically |
| 11500s | have one death on attack you can die and |
| 11502s | then like try again at the shots a |
| 11505s | little bit riskier here so whis is going |
| 11507s | to be have to be very on top of the |
| 11510s | Staying Alive game more so than the |
| 11512s | finding picks game though with a May |
| 11514s | being the other DPS and there being a |
| 11516s | lack of General damage per second I do |
| 11519s | think there is some pressure to also hit |
| 11521s | shots at the same exact time so just a |
| 11523s | lot of weight put on this Widowmaker |
| 11525s | shoulders and slightly unreasonable |
| 11526s | amount especially considering that VT |
| 11528s | blue yes you're pushing them over but |
| 11530s | they are no |
| 11532s | pushovers yeah they're already through |
| 11534s | that first choke point they're headed on |
| 11536s | they do not care about the damage that |
| 11538s | they are taking and trying to get into |
| 11540s | the good position on The High Ground |
| 11541s | whsp is just spamming done quite a few |
| 11543s | shots and Venom mine also doing a little |
| 11545s | bit of damage get letting them keep an |
| 11547s | eye on that Lucio but now whis having to |
| 11550s | reposition already there's that |
| 11552s | immortality field from Timeless aerial |
| 11554s | that's been destroyed they need to keep |
| 11555s | bun up somehow and they're just hiding |
| 11558s | leaving in and out of the shield making |
| 11559s | sure to continue contesting now walled |
| 11562s | off pacify away through and sustain that |
| 11565s | tank still bun is staying alive wellcat |
| 11568s | it's a different story Z man eventually |
| 11570s | takes down that Sigma and now they're |
| 11572s | going to clean up the rest of |
| 11574s | them yeah I mean once the Baptist went |
| 11578s | down that was the real problem for them |
| 11580s | I think a lot of the onus right now |
| 11581s | though is on cat what and phone you need |
| 11584s | to be just utterly destroying bun bun |
| 11587s | has no damage to throw back at catw and |
| 11590s | phone is up to the Widowmaker to find |
| 11592s | pix and you know what here's a little |
| 11594s | quiet play head shot get the |
| 11596s | amplification again on the first shot |
| 11599s | though in a great wall to deny the |
| 11601s | Widowmaker any space now this is the Go |
| 11603s | Button they need to move forward in time |
| 11605s | but they don't nobody gets forward |
| 11607s | enough the wall cuts off half the team |
| 11609s | in rotation in time with etherial |
| 11611s | completely circumvent the plans that V2 |
| 11614s | have yeah this is just a widow 76 from |
| 11617s | whisps as well I mean that was such a |
| 11620s | good amp Matrix once again trying to get |
| 11621s | the SEI plays whis does whiip a little |
| 11624s | bit at the very beginning but they're |
| 11626s | still able to get the shot on the |
| 11627s | Baptist and then it's where you supposed |
| 11629s | to go the disruption shot is going to |
| 11631s | stop whis from being able to get a lot |
| 11633s | of value from that high ground but this |
| 11635s | still another stinky flank play seeing |
| 11638s | if they read into this one but it |
| 11639s | doesn't seem like they do especially |
| 11641s | since cat goes down they don't want to |
| 11643s | force themselves out of Spawn we should |
| 11645s | remind ourselves buns on tank snipers on |
| 11647s | me she they're emoting is That's Not |
| 11651s | Your Spawn you're not allowed to do that |
| 11654s | we finally down but cat falls for it |
| 11657s | they don't have a tank it's 45 it's |
| 11659s | still not a great fight here for BT blue |
| 11662s | you have a Widowmaker emoting in Your |
| 11665s | Spawn and you still don't win the fight |
| 11668s | still they're able to take down bun |
| 11670s | finally and it seems like Timeless |
| 11671s | etheral are going to be punished for |
| 11673s | their for their troll |
| 11677s | actions |
| 11679s | unless there is a a recontest here is it |
| 11682s | good I'm not not exactly sure about that |
| 11684s | one they could R contestant third points |
| 11687s | they going for |
| 11691s | second I mean Halo's here to speed in |
| 11693s | bun it was it was really iffy they W |
| 11695s | they didn't taxi bun which is why I was |
| 11697s | so confused but nevertheless go in an |
| 11700s | application is available on the backside |
| 11702s | to kind of supplement this push losing |
| 11705s | too many players early I don't think |
| 11706s | it's something they're going to go yeah |
| 11708s | that fight was very messy for Timeless |
| 11710s | ethereal and it felt a little bit |
| 11711s | disjointed between the front and back |
| 11713s | line just a bit of Mis unication here |
| 11716s | and Timeless AAL they they flew too |
| 11717s | close to the Sun with the with the |
| 11719s | emoting in the spawn hold it was it was |
| 11722s | a little |
| 11724s | messy now 308 on the Block for a second |
| 11727s | Point hold with still playing with fire |
| 11730s | still running this |
| 11732s | Widowmaker on a massive DPS for them |
| 11734s | they hit they rely on those picks coming |
| 11735s | out from whis if they want to get |
| 11737s | anything |
| 11738s | done but it still seems to be working |
| 11740s | out pretty well for him first Corner |
| 11742s | fight steps up implication Matrix |
| 11743s | available for CLA as well as a blux |
| 11746s | following it if they want to go for it |
| 11747s | and there won't be any sound barrier to |
| 11750s | counter when C presses that Q |
| 11753s | button yeah now there's that lizard from |
| 11756s | sniper and it's just going to allow di |
| 11758s | theia to go on a tear there is nowhere |
| 11761s | for a cat to go really well done from |
| 11763s | Timeless etherial to just completely |
| 11765s | stop VT blue in their tracks they were |
| 11768s | not expecting that play from sniper yeah |
| 11771s | it was an instantaneous response to the |
| 11776s | matrix's to opportunity beactive maybe |
| 11780s | you can't spend time hunting down this |
| 11781s | Widowmaker you just have to avoid her |
| 11783s | sight which they do beautifully taking |
| 11785s | that side lane I love how whis has like |
| 11787s | a personal Lucio as well to help with |
| 11789s | rotation into further flank positions |
| 11791s | this is insane the Bastion out from BT |
| 11794s | blue though now starts to move forward |
| 11795s | on the time of the serial and they flip |
| 11797s | the map using the flux do so even more |
| 11799s | The Rock connects with a little bit too |
| 11801s | late yeah and now Halo taking down saona |
| 11805s | after that sound barrier has already |
| 11807s | been used wh finding the head shot onto |
| 11809s | what this should be the nail in the |
| 11811s | coffin cat is just getting shredded and |
| 11814s | even though the Bastion is putting out |
| 11815s | damage so much is being sucked in giving |
| 11818s | Sigma those Shields out the immortality |
| 11821s | field now for Claire they are in danger |
| 11823s | CLA falling without the B piece where's |
| 11825s | the sustain for the tank it is nowhere |
| 11827s | to be found Timeless ethereal with |
| 11830s | another fight win toppling VT blue feel |
| 11833s | like this is a horror game for vtv like |
| 11835s | they move forward through these tiny |
| 11837s | dark hallways getting poked at from side |
| 11839s | to side then eventually they just get |
| 11841s | like shout out ASP in Five Nights at |
| 11843s | Freddy's jump scared from like some |
| 11845s | angle that wisps isn't supposed to be on |
| 11847s | by wisps it like what do you do yeah you |
| 11849s | just like peekaboo and then you run away |
| 11852s | and then now The Horde is chasing you |
| 11854s | this is a |
| 11855s | nightmare like Halo is really trying to |
| 11858s | go in for like the Goomba stomp on this |
| 11860s | entire team another map flip on on this |
| 11863s | squad look at this you just have Halo |
| 11865s | looking for a flank as a Lucio and now |
| 11868s | CLA only has the amplification Matrix |
| 11870s | they do have that Bastion Alti the |
| 11872s | artillery strike and there's the |
| 11873s | artillery strike to come through but bun |
| 11875s | so much value from the gravitic BL what |
| 11879s | can BT blue do at 30 seconds left on the |
| 11883s | clock and another team Kill from |
| 11884s | Timeless bual I feel like we need a |
| 11886s | counter for them I mean into amp Matrix |
| 11888s | and blizzard when you're just trying to |
| 11890s | I'm just trying to make it out of Spawn |
| 11891s | man in time theyel say n no no no no you |
| 11894s | you pay the troll toll you got to you |
| 11896s | got to walk through the blizzard first |
| 11898s | you got to kill whis you got to find |
| 11900s | some way in not easy oh God that'll do |
| 11903s | it at least there's Revenge at the end |
| 11906s | of it all everyone's trying to touch |
| 11908s | Point does anybody actually two one |
| 11911s | saona did they touch they did overtime |
| 11914s | out from cat immortality Fields four on |
| 11916s | to the man but Timeless ethereal are |
| 11918s | just too good nobody can match this team |
| 11921s | now 27 and0 and in the last 27 Maps they |
| 11924s | Kine themselves towards the top of this |
| 11926s | whis |
| 11928s | stage this is insane I mean we were |
| 11930s | talking a little bit about how the Widow |
| 11933s | on the defense if she died once it's |
| 11935s | unlikely that we see heren out again but |
| 11937s | whis doesn't care whisp knows their |
| 11939s | limits and they are able to play to them |
| 11942s | beautifully and especially on this |
| 11944s | defensive half we we saw a little bit of |
| 11946s | trolling they did a little bit of that |
| 11947s | emoting right outside their spawn and it |
| 11949s | cost them that first point but they |
| 11951s | recovered it from it so well and VT blue |
| 11953s | they were just getting knocked over like |
| 11955s | Domino's time and time and time again |
| 11959s | and I I think we we set the stage for |
| 11960s | this match right and we were talking |
| 11962s | about what it means for VT blue and how |
| 11963s | important it is to try and put something |
| 11965s | up against Timeless which for anybody is |
| 11968s | a monstrous task right but it's not |
| 11971s | necessar like yes they take a hard loss |
| 11973s | but this isn't the end for VT blue there |
| 11974s | are plenty of other teams that they can |
| 11977s | take on to try and get again to that |
| 11978s | like fifth sixth position is I think |
| 11980s | where it's mostly contentious in order |
| 11982s | to try to qualify for championships so |
| 11985s | it's certainly not out yet they're 2-0 |
| 11987s | for a reason coming into this match |
| 11989s | unfortunate it went the way it did I |
| 11991s | think Timeless had a fair bit of fun |
| 11993s | with it though a roll swap for bun and |
| 11995s | sniper uh who was It Bun building a a |
| 11999s | Snowman in their spawn we got I think |
| 12001s | everything you could ask for in terms of |
| 12003s | at least showing off uh the the fancy |
| 12005s | emotes you can get in the |
| 12007s | store yeah just go ahead look in that |
| 12010s | OverWatch store if you want to be cool |
| 12011s | like ESS aeal and emote in other |
| 12014s | people's spawns because you're just that |
| 12016s | good then why not go for it and I think |
| 12018s | that whis was really trying to go for |
| 12020s | the the sneaky play of the day the quiet |
| 12022s | play but with the amp Matrix as well I |
| 12025s | think zman did such an excellent job |
| 12028s | keeping this team alive and trying to |
| 12030s | set up plays for the rest of the squad |
| 12032s | as well yeah it was a solid series for |
| 12035s | Timeless again just showing us how |
| 12037s | monstrous they can be I feel like we |
| 12038s | have to remind ourselves at the start of |
| 12040s | every one of these broadcasts and then |
| 12041s | we just end up checking back up in on |
| 12043s | them during finals after they've thoed |
| 12045s | virtually everybody in their path but |
| 12047s | we'll see if any of these teams have |
| 12049s | built themselves up to be good enough to |
| 12050s | properly take them on or if it's going |
| 12052s | to take a whole tournament to knock this |
| 12054s | team down we'll see you guys in a |
| 12066s | [Music] |
| 12071s | bit |
| 12074s | [Music] |
| 12091s | [Music] |

| 12221s | down |
| 12222s | [Applause] |
| 12222s | [Music] |
| 12245s | Timeless ethereal proving to us time and |
| 12248s | time again how dominant they are in the |
| 12250s | calling all heroes circuit and we are |
| 12253s | back to announce the Chipotle MV match |
| 12257s | MVP of that last best of three and you |
| 12260s | know I have to say it was a tough one |
| 12263s | every single one of them were popping |
| 12265s | off but got to give it to zman got to |
| 12267s | give the support some appreciation can't |
| 12269s | be thankless here lots of healing done |
| 12271s | and on top of that lots of damage yeah I |
| 12274s | mean some of the weirdest and coolest |
| 12276s | amplification Matrix I've seen in a |
| 12278s | minute and on top of that hit like the |
| 12281s | most amazing immortality field normally |
| 12283s | for an MVP thing I wouldn't be talking |
| 12285s | about like an individual player or |
| 12288s | individual plays rather but with in a |
| 12290s | match this short you kind of have to you |
| 12292s | know so that that immortality feel for |
| 12295s | me yeah sick highlight and then as well |
| 12297s | every amplification Matrix they were |
| 12298s | enabling whis they were across the map |
| 12301s | uh making sure that bun was able to take |
| 12304s | all this pressure was actually pretty |
| 12305s | impressive considering that they didn't |
| 12306s | have much damage to throw back on top of |
| 12308s | that while outputting damage of their |
| 12310s | own it was a great performance all |
| 12311s | around them |
| 12313s | yeah just using the cool Downs really |
| 12315s | well in general and I think Z man did an |
| 12318s | excellent job of enabling the squad |
| 12320s | solid support line just the backbone of |
| 12323s | the squad so far and Timeless ethereal |
| 12325s | they are just doing so good and we have |
| 12327s | an interview ready for you guys coming |
| 12331s | right up it is going to be whsp we saw a |
| 12334s | lot of really good DPS play oh my God is |
| 12337s | that your cat let's |
| 12339s | go uh her name's Chevy uh she was a |
| 12342s | stake in that I found inside like an old |
| 12345s | Corvette like |
| 12347s | bumper and we like took her in and she's |
| 12350s | actually our like logo for the the call |
| 12353s | for our te oh that that is her |
| 12356s | yeah she's she's adorable is that is |
| 12359s | that what lets you is she like |
| 12360s | whispering in your ear go on the flank |
| 12362s | is that yeah that the bence she's the |
| 12364s | voices she's the |
| 12368s | voices so you actually have two cats on |
| 12371s | Timeless at the Cal you have the cat |
| 12373s | named bun and you have the cat you have |
| 12375s | in your lap exactly |
| 12377s | yep so uh run me through real quick |
| 12380s | what's that series like for you cuz for |
| 12383s | us it was I mean roller coaster is like |
| 12385s | a weird word to use for it it wasn't so |
| 12386s | much up and down but it was definitely a |
| 12388s | lot of One Direction and that was you |
| 12390s | guys running at their spawn what what |
| 12393s | are comms like in that like what is this |
| 12395s | tournament to you guys considering that |
| 12396s | you guys have a million qualification |
| 12399s | points I know there's still of course a |
| 12400s | prize pool there's still plenty of |
| 12402s | reason to play but you guys seem to be |
| 12404s | having a lot of fun with it before |
| 12406s | Championship uh yeah we definitely today |
| 12408s | were a lot more chill like first day of |
| 12410s | Swiss |
| 12411s | um uh honestly comms today were kind of |
| 12414s | just fun people are kind of just like |
| 12415s | messing around and like vibing with each |
| 12418s | other this team's like one thing I |
| 12419s | really love about this team is like |
| 12420s | everyone is like friends like we we |
| 12422s | don't even use our team server to scrim |
| 12424s | half the time sometimes we're just like |
| 12425s | in our friend Discord that we were |
| 12426s | already in before everyone's like we |
| 12429s | just have |
| 12430s | fun yeah that's pretty awesome and I |
| 12433s | mean you guys have won a lot of the |
| 12435s | calling all heroes events before is |
| 12437s | there a team that you think might stand |
| 12440s | up to you this time give you that little |
| 12442s | bit of a challenge that you might not |
| 12443s | have seen in the previous |
| 12444s | events uh I'm definitely excited to go |
| 12447s | up against wisp uh I would that roster |
| 12449s | is like a lot of what my team was last |
| 12452s | call um and they have like a new roster |
| 12455s | with like anun now um so it'll be really |
| 12457s | fun to go up against them I think |
| 12458s | they're a really good team um I'm |
| 12460s | friends with a lot of people on that |
| 12461s | roster I'll defin be a fun match and I |
| 12462s | definitely think a hard match too but |
| 12465s | should be pretty |
| 12466s | fun yeah I think a lot of people see him |
| 12468s | going pretty far but for you guys what |
| 12471s | lengths what do you consider success in |
| 12473s | this tournament for you are you just |
| 12474s | trying to have fun before the |
| 12475s | championship are you looking for a |
| 12477s | fourth win in a row in a calling all |
| 12479s | heroes tournament to to give to the |
| 12481s | Timeless Empire uh what is it for you |
| 12484s | what is the goal here uh we're |
| 12486s | definitely going for the win and and I |
| 12488s | definitely think we can do it uh I think |
| 12490s | everyone's been working pretty hard |
| 12492s | uh I think we have a really good team I |
| 12494s | think we all trust each other I |
| 12496s | definitely think we can go for another |
| 12498s | another Crown another Victory Royale for |
| 12500s | the |
| 12503s | ogs yeah and looking even a little bit |
| 12506s | further ahead you guys are basically |
| 12508s | locked in to qualify for the |
| 12510s | championship do you think that that's |
| 12512s | going to be like typical of what calling |
| 12515s | all his Heroes events that you've seen |
| 12517s | before or do you think it's going to be |
| 12519s | a lot more challenging for you uh I'm |
| 12522s | not sure I mean it'll be like relatively |
| 12524s | the same teams I think the only |
| 12525s | difference it'll be like less of like |
| 12527s | the Swiss stage where you go against |
| 12528s | like a lot of teams and more so you're |
| 12530s | just going against like a lot of like |
| 12532s | the better teams because they've like |
| 12533s | proven themselves and qualified but I |
| 12535s | think it'll be pretty similar maybe like |
| 12537s | higher stakes and whatnot but that |
| 12539s | should be really |
| 12540s | fun yeah before we let you go any any |
| 12543s | notes that you want to give any last |
| 12545s | messages before we send you on and I |
| 12547s | mean it seems like we're just likely to |
| 12549s | see you again in the finals so I don't |
| 12551s | think it's necessarily goodbye forever |
| 12553s | so much as for now but any notes you |
| 12554s | want to leave us on before then um not |
| 12557s | really one thing I want to say is that |
| 12558s | the team we just played uh we scrimmed |
| 12560s | them we put bun in on tank which we did |
| 12562s | the last map and they uh called the |
| 12564s | scrim and forfeited it because we were |
| 12566s | off rolling so maybe they should have |
| 12568s | practiced against the bun Sigma you know |
| 12570s | she she's pretty good at it she was |
| 12573s | actually like under a lot of like when |
| 12576s | you're playing with the with the Widow |
| 12577s | instead of having like a major damage |
| 12578s | hor like a soan that's a a tough Sigma |
| 12580s | match up to play so yeah credit words |
| 12582s | it's do bun did do well and maybe the |
| 12585s | scrim should have gone on but |
| 12586s | nevertheless congratulations wisp on the |
| 12588s | win we hope to see you in the future |
| 12590s | thank |
| 12594s | you well we know what's cooking over |
| 12596s | there they're just a bunch of lads |
| 12598s | having a good |
| 12599s | time and they're just like a bunch of |
| 12601s | friends and it's really nice to see that |
| 12603s | they are going for the win once again |
| 12605s | building that Timeless Empire and we are |
| 12609s | just going to look at the Swiss |
| 12610s | standings as far that was kind of a |
| 12612s | quick one so not everything might be |
| 12615s | ready just yet I think yeah Swiss has |
| 12618s | not finished this was a really quick |
| 12619s | match I think it was how long was it |
| 12621s | it's probably probably the first one |
| 12623s | done if we're being honest with |
| 12624s | ourselves we we bought some time there |
| 12625s | at the end but nobody can catch up |
| 12627s | that's all right though because we've |
| 12628s | got more important things to do we've |
| 12630s | been talking about MVPs we've been |
| 12632s | talking about oh you know who's going to |
| 12634s | take it for the tournament but more |
| 12635s | importantly we've got the be quiet |
| 12637s | silent play of the day to give away and |
| 12639s | I this is what excites me this is not |
| 12641s | just about the biggest play that |
| 12643s | happened in the day but the play that |
| 12645s | said sh more than any other in this one |
| 12648s | from Zoe the deflected sleep into Zep |
| 12652s | turn we can get it one more time oh my |
| 12655s | God nothing says be quiet take a little |
| 12658s | nap for me while I 3K the rest of your |
| 12660s | team like Zoe does with this deflect |
| 12664s | yeah just keep that clip on replay that |
| 12666s | is definitely one of the highlights that |
| 12668s | we saw today and I mean Timeless they |
| 12670s | basically ran over Vancouver Titans blue |
| 12673s | but I definitely really love to see the |
| 12675s | doomfist compositions come out I would |
| 12677s | have loved to see a Reinhardt and there |
| 12679s | was a little bit of Winston play and |
| 12681s | it's nice to see that there's a variety |
| 12683s | here too as well yeah I mean I I think |
| 12686s | it's just been a really fun tournament |
| 12687s | in terms of the meta it's nice to get |
| 12689s | that variety sometimes in tournaments we |
| 12691s | can stick to one thing I was worried we |
| 12693s | might get a bit too much of the sigma |
| 12694s | but seeing things like Kindred come out |
| 12696s | and play a really good doomfist open |
| 12698s | series up made things super duper fun |
| 12700s | Timeless getting wacky with things is |
| 12701s | always a good time and I I think in |
| 12703s | general it's been a lot of fun and |
