773s welcome everybody to calling all heroes
776s it is the radiant Heroes major 3 The
779s Most Wonderful Time of the Year merry
781s Cosmos everybody my name is CB and I am
784s joined by the wonderful tiny shiny how
786s are you doing today tiny oh it is an
788s absolutely wonderful day for calling all
790s heroes as always Merry cosmas everybody
793s we have a ton of action to bring to you
796s on this lovely Sunday this will be the
798s conclusion of our Swiss stage today
800s we've had so much calling all heroes
802s action going on not only in just just
805s this calling Heroes major 3 this is the
806s third one after all this is the final
808s main event that we are going to have
810s before we get in to the LC Qs and of
813s course the Champions you're going to see
814s wayn down there in Rainbow in February I
817s said it's the most wonderful time of the
819s year it only comes around once every
820s year or approximately six to seven times
823s a season depending on whether or not
824s you're counting lcq championships but
826s it's been quite the tumultuous Road for
829s a lot of the marginalized gender talent
831s that we have coming at you today they've
833s been through quite a bit and it's time
835s to make it all worth something like you
837s said the last major event before for the
839s hellscape that's going to be lcq to try
842s and make it into championships right now
844s it's put up or shut up for so many of
847s these teams and even a couple of these
849s teams right now after uh after yesterday
851s we've got some updated standings as far
853s as uh circuit points will go Timeless
855s ethereal is sitting pretty at the top
858s there that is a wisps Cat by the way as
860s their logo I think we're going to switch
861s that back to the Timeless one so you
864s know say say hello to the cute baby uh
866s it's goingon to be gone after this one
868s uh but you know we also have time
869s Celestial the another like little sister
871s team going on with Timeless ethereal a
873s few other teams to keep an eye on here
875s though Michael wave Fable nyxl Embers
877s this is about where the cut off is going
880s to be is that sixth place spot right
882s there the top six are going to go to
884s Champs so VT blue and aith are knocking
886s at the door there yeah and you're going
888s to notice that especially where those
890s points are the closest ones are going to
892s be both aios and VT blue that they want
895s to get that top spot away nothing is
896s going to be secure until of course the
899s end of the day today that's going to get
901s you into those top eight spots we'll
903s figure out who is moving on to that
905s playoff bracket by the end of next
907s matches so and then we'll head over to
908s next weekend where those actual prizes
911s will be given out so we're going to go
913s ahead and take a look at that format too
915s just to give you guys a better idea of
916s that visual we have so much on the line
918s today not only qualification potentially
920s to those final CB but also some good old
923s cash prize and those circuit points it's
925s the circuit points by the way that I
927s think are going to be the most important
929s I mean you look at first prize you're
930s getting $5,000 like that's to each
933s player by the way 5,000 a pop and like
936s that's a fair bit right but the points
938s the points are where it's actually all
940s going to matter because like I like we
941s said this is potentially the last chance
943s for any of these teams to get any of
945s these points to really get themselves in
947s that top six and for teams you know like
949s Fable who we're going to be looking at a
950s little bit later today and by later
952s today I mean almost this once we're done
954s with the top of the show today it's
956s going to get a little bit scary you want
957s to make sure you're grabbing on to as
958s many point points as you possibly can
960s from top to bottom anything is better
962s than nothing right
963s now absolutely anything that you can
966s manage to get your hands on in this
968s event is going to be massive whether
970s it's for the sake of qualifying for
972s those championships or just getting
973s yourselves on the board for some other
975s incentives that we actually have going
977s on so not only are you looking at that
979s cash prize but also we have our lovely
982s gear provided by be quiet you'll get an
984s idea you got PC cases power supply units
987s and air cooler units for first through
989s fourth place of today that breakdown is
992s sitting there accordingly there's so
994s much on the line for today's games yeah
996s be quiet shouts out for sweetening the
998s pot just a little bit but again it's all
1000s about those circuit points you know the
1001s cash prize and a nice sweet PC case and
1004s a power supply you like I'd love that
1006s like absolutely any day of the week but
1008s if I'm one of these competitors I want
1009s to go for the big payday that's going to
1011s be Champs that's where all eyes are
1013s going to be on you that's where
1014s everybody is going to want to make their
1015s name and in order to get there you have
1018s to have to to have to get all of those
1020s circuit points that you possibly can and
1023s here is where it's all going to come
1025s down to this is our map Pool a quite
1027s narrow one for a lot of these teams and
1029s that might force a pretty strict meta
1032s outside of the uh the control there
1034s where we have Samoa joining the fry this
1037s time around that's kind of what you like
1039s to see though right is you're going to
1040s have Samoa and Antarctic Peninsula two
1042s of the newest maps that you're actually
1044s going to see here in today outside of
1046s flasho which will of course be joining
1048s the lineup so it'll be coming control
1050s all the way to hybrid and then flasho in
1053s our best of three formatting the map one
1055s will be set and then after from here on
1057s out it will be that first pick for not
1060s only just the challengers division but
1062s also for our Rising tournament which
1065s will be happening simultaneously along
1067s with this event so while they may not be
1069s on stream you still have plenty of
1071s competitors that are competing in a rank
1073s of diamond or below for some nice
1076s pricing themselves $1,000 goes over to
1079s the winners of the second event I I I
1081s know a lot of you guys are watching this
1082s and being like man these marginalized

1184s for our giveaway codes and how you will
1186s be able to maybe grab yourself a little
1188s bit of a snack but of course CB with all
1191s of that being said we got to get ready
1193s to head into our matches for today we're
1196s starting out Swiss round number four
1198s fable versus Vanquish Royals and I am
1200s really glad that we get to start off
1202s with this matchup because I have been
1205s pushing some pretty strong a propaganda
1207s so I want to get some uh some more Fable
1209s on my screen we saw a little bit of them
1211s yesterday but we also get to see
1212s vanquished Royals who didn't actually
1214s get to make it onto the broadcast but do
1216s have some interesting pieces that are
1217s worth putting under the microscope to
1219s see what it is that they're capable of
1221s see if they're able to try and overtake
1223s a team Like Fable who if we go to the
1225s overall standings remember Fable was
1227s sitting there at fifth place kind of you
1228s know near that bubble vanquished Royals
1230s right now they're sitting at 10th place
1233s and if you look at our overall Swiss
1234s standings I there's uh not quite as much
1237s daylight between the two only that one
1239s win and one loss separating them this
1241s could be one of those places where if
1243s you're vanquished Royals you close the
1244s gap and potentially you know put fables
1246s chances of qualifying for the playoffs
1248s in
1249s Jeopardy exactly and that's kind of
1251s where you want to annunciate Fable right
1253s is because they are very close to
1255s confirming a spot within those playoffs
1257s and you know if you start by winning
1259s this match today great you're one step
1261s closer to moving on to this top eight
1264s playoff bracket and it is an absolute
1266s must for this team because we saw those
1267s points you saw how close that this
1269s competition is going to get and if Fable
1271s were to miss out on that top eight I
1272s mean everything everything that they've
1274s worked for this entire season is going
1275s to be up in Jeopardy and looking at this
1277s roster today CB you know him you love
1279s them you got to highlight these guys
1280s Avery for starters on the tank they have
1283s been absolutely insane when it comes to
1285s the sigma Arya she's got a stellar
1287s Soldier and just sitting waiting to come
1289s on out partnered with snar kopy and
1292s panther I mean there's so much to look
1293s forward to the to Fable and the roster
1296s that they're going to put out today when
1297s we saw them in their matchup in their
1299s switch stage one they looked pretty darn
1302s strong especially when it came to this
1303s main meta composition yeah I mean sosler
1306s and Carol are both really strong pickups
1308s and they have definitely shown their
1309s Merit but I want to continue to
1311s highlight Avery it's my firm belief that
1314s Avery is the most underrated tank player
1316s in all of calling all heroes their Sigma
1318s is second to none and in a sigma
1320s dominated meta they are actually getting
1322s a chance to show what for we saw
1324s glimpses of it in the last minor
1326s tournament but Fable didn't really put
1328s up the results that we kind of wanted
1330s them to and kind of expected them to now
1332s it is up to this roster to be the
1334s authors of their own fairy tale write
1336s their own destiny and it starts by
1338s qualifying for playoffs and they have to
1340s show they have to show show their value
1343s show what it's all about show why
1344s everybody needs to pay attention to them
1346s but standing in their way will be the
1349s squad that we haven't seen quite a bit
1351s of yet but we're about to Vanquish
1354s Royals yeah Vanquish Royals coming on up
1356s we've seen a lot of these players in
1358s other coing o Heroes events of course
1360s just not under this title formerly
1362s stricks Bad Blood you'll have Sia dyamic
1364s and blobfish all pretty well-known
1367s players within the calling all heroes
1369s scene but you also need to stand the
1371s question are they ready to stand up to
1373s the m that is Avery and Fable who have
1376s been playing together for quite some
1378s time have a lot to work for in just this
1380s event alone going head-to-head with
1382s someone like Avery especially in a sigma
1384s meta is going to put a lot of the weight
1385s on blob vish's shoulders but I also kind
1387s of want to highlight dynamic because
1389s they were a standout player on bearclaw
1390s gaming last tournament and even though
1392s bearclaw gaming was another team that
1394s didn't quite post the results that we
1395s thought that they maybe should have
1397s Dynamic was still a standout and still
1400s one of the highlights of that roster I
1401s think having them come in here for this
1403s Vanquish Royal Squad is a huge pickup
1405s and I think that is going to you know be
1408s something is going to Bear a little bit
1409s more of the burden for this team but
1411s it's going to be it feels like it feels
1414s like it's going to be a fable uh favored
1417s matchup here today yeah and like that's
1420s kind of what we expect right Fable have
1422s been of course they've been have a
1423s little bit more that team Synergy
1425s they've been playing together longer
1426s plus their strongest Heroes just happen
1429s to be pretty darn good right now CV
1432s particularly when you look at this map
1434s of Antarctic peninsula where we'll be
1436s kicking off our Series this is a set map
1438s nobody body's choice in particular but
1440s if y'all were hanging around yesterday
1441s saw the first game of the day it was
1443s fael taking down uh I believe it was
1446s pocket uh no it was meow for a pocket
1449s for pocket exactly meow for pocket and
1451s they play play this
1454s Sigma they played this Sigma with the
1456s may symmetra they switch up to a soldier
1458s and Tracer there's so much adaptability
1460s within this team to counter out whatever
1462s their opponents run and honestly I think
1464s that's going to be one of their biggest
1465s strengths especially when you look at a
1467s map such as this one
1468s yeah uh antartic penisula is one of
1470s those Maps where you're going to see a
1471s lot more Rush especially on both um
1474s especially on both Su L and or not on Su
1477s level actually on both Icebreaker and
1478s Labs you're going to see a lot of the
1480s rush on Su level things might go a
1481s little bit more in the ways of a dive
1483s composition it has the tendency to do
1485s just that but I think you know it's
1488s still going to be a strong map for the
1490s sigma composition the sigma head-to-head
1491s regardless so we're going to have to see
1493s what ends up happening we're kicking
1495s things off here on Icebreaker and you
1497s know fable I don't think we're going to
1499s be sticking on the road hog we're not
1500s all about that base over here I I it's
1503s Avery it's Avery Avery is going to swap
1505s to the sigma I can almost assure it and
1507s we're seeing the other the same thing on
1509s the side of Vanquish royals here this
1511s composition by the way you know when we
1512s get a chance to kind of break it down a
1514s little bit I'll be sure to tell you what
1515s it is but you mentioned adaptability by
1517s the way for both these teams when it
1518s comes to this composition that is the
1521s name of the game yeah adaptability being
1524s able to make those changes and another
1526s thing is the speed that we're to see
1528s lime sticking onto this symmetra that
1530s gets you over to this little Center area
1532s that you're going to see on Icebreaker
1534s first allowing them to start the Poke
1535s phase the problem with this is that you
1537s need to find some way to play off a mayw
1539s Arya did get the nice one up yes but
1541s Avery keep of trouble teleporting out of
1543s the direction but they find themselves
1545s all off in a corner split can they
1546s manage to stay alive imortality thrown
1548s in from downtown it doesn't last long at
1549s all it's up to lime and Arya to come up
1551s big look how much charge that the aeter
1554s has right now that's a triple kill to
1555s Glow off you let the microwave beam go
1557s all the way up
1558s things are about to burn lime sticking
1561s with the symmetra here is kind of a
1562s surprise but when you consider the
1563s geometry of Icebreaker it's not a huge
1565s surprise actually it's quite favorable
1567s for fable when they actually get into
1568s that brawl phase when the May walls come
1570s up that's where the symmetra is going to
1572s outshine the likes of the soj soj has to
1574s try and stay at range and find you know
1576s that that one shot potential but she's
1577s not able to do that if everyone's
1579s already dead being melted down like
1581s butter with a microwave beam coming out
1583s from lme there and now as we rotate
1585s around trying to come from The High
1587s Ground or going to be a little bit of a
1589s mayw well there to segment off lob fish
1591s that's the main cool Downs coming out
1593s too was way out in no man's land on the
1596s other side of Mayall sure you had the
1597s ice block but that's just another way
1599s that Arya has done an excellent job to
1601s set up Avery and the rest of fable to
1604s secure these eliminations and it's one
1606s of those things where it's like you're
1607s kind of subjected to a Mayall no matter
1609s which way you approach this point
1610s there's just three different chokes that
1611s you're going to have to walk through and
1613s yeah vanish Royals they've had enough of
1614s this they're going to go ahead and reach
1616s for the loaded handgun that has been B
1618s this entire meta that's going to put a
1620s lot of pressure on Avery and potentially
1622s lime to get some teleports out of
1624s danger yeah that's what lime has been
1626s doing so good every single time if
1628s there's a main wall or something scary
1629s coming up you just get your team out of
1631s the way and now they have all of these
1632s insane ultimates to be able to play off
1634s of that the sound coming up blobfish
1636s turned into quite a frozen fish and
1638s Avery cleans up the rest of the squad
1640s that wasn't even a major commitment that
1641s they have to pull in three ultimates
1643s quick and done and finally C we're going
1644s to be Dar near flashight territory it's
1647s going to be that sound from Ni that's
1648s going to make all the difference there
1649s for Vanquish Royals because you're going
1651s to be looking on the other side and
1652s there's that gravitic flux blobfish has
1654s a chance to try and build up to one of
1655s their own but I you know it's going to
1658s be kind of a razor thin margin you know
1660s you Avery you got to know that they're
1661s going to be looking for that early one
1662s going to try and get all the follow-up
1664s damage that they can so is NI sound
1665s barrier going to be on point we'll have
1668s to find out they lost kopy though got so
1671s far up there and that's going to end up
1672s hting good but what where's it flopfish
1674s no the gratic FL wide and your turn down
1678s by the turrets what can a sigma do in
1679s this how painful it could be but the
1682s blizzard goes down maybe things are
1684s falling apart Vanquish roal droing
1686s everything that they can on this point
1688s but there's just one step ahead Fable
1690s can read The Playbook that langage roal
1692s pull out and it is a clean sweep to kick
1695s us off on Icebreaker so I I erroneously
1698s said that Avery would be looking for an
1700s early gravitic flux there this is why
1701s they're a better far better Sigma player
1703s than I will ever be they actually waited
1705s bed their time blobfish with the
1707s gravitic flux and vanish Royals invested
1710s the beat on that as well and they didn't
1712s find anything for that all that ulted
1714s like all those ults no purchase Avery
1716s comes in no more beat gravitic flux eats
1719s the blizzard on top of it near
1721s single-handedly just nullifies three
1724s ultimates on the other side and just
1726s slams everyone right back down to earth
1727s with one of their own GG's easy for that
1730s one fa will take ice breaker quite
1732s swiftly and as we go to Labs I mean I
1735s don't expect to see any change UPS on
1736s either side I think we're going to
1737s continue as we were Vanquish Royals
1740s still going to hang their hat on that
1741s soj composition but is prototype going
1744s to be able to find any purchase with it
1746s so far they haven't but we know that
1747s they can yeah like here's the thing
1750s though right is that Fable they're
1752s sticking onto this semetra they're
1754s playing the sigma comp as more of a
1756s brawl style rather than the Poke that
1758s fish Royals want to do they have a bit
1759s more of an option to do that but the
1761s problem is with how aggressive is
1763s allowing Avery to be and they're just
1765s stuck in the phase of a symmetra beam
1766s they're getting split up just like we
1767s saw there and you're getting sent back
1769s to spawn in such a quick fashion yes
1771s you're going to be able to take many
1773s fights but if you don't deal with lime
1775s you're just done that's it so generally
1778s speaking like the sigma composition the
1779s way that vanquished Royals are playing
1780s it it's kind of a hybrid between a poke
1782s and a brawl composition you're just
1783s playing the Poke until you either find a
1786s pick off with the sojourn or the May
1787s finds a big wall and at either point the
1789s two teams collapse on top of each other
1791s like long lost lovers but Fable are
1793s completely skipping that first step
1794s they're going all in on the brawl with
1796s the symmetra getting right up inish Ro
1798s face they can't comfortably make that
1799s transition and they look lost once Fable
1802s get in their face every single time and
1803s Fable as long as they keep this Tempo up
1806s they're going to be firmly in the driver
1807s seat yeah like that's the thing though
1809s right is that prototype is a very good
1811s soldier player but if you're not able to
1813s do anything because people are playing
1815s so close they are quite literally
1816s driving the bus with bers Royals they're
1818s getting trampled over time and time
1820s again so you look at them to make this
1822s next set up either need a wall or a
1823s window come out you're going to get both
1825s but guess what a is that flux up first
1827s everyone looking to stay alive excellent
1829s healing midair to come on through and
1830s Arya even ends up going down so Bish
1832s rules easily the best position that they
1835s have been in so far this entire team you
1837s know you're going to see the photon Bear
1838s yeah that's going to slow it down and it
1840s gives a chance to stabilize up on this
1842s High Ground have a bit more of an
1843s opportunity to do things before they
1845s back out the longer this goes the more
1847s percentage that they're going to be able
1848s to get but blobfish goes so far up
1850s beautiful sound barrier knife keeping
1852s the team alive but n is that even going
1854s to be enough prototype has to get in
1856s there finally lands the shot needed lime
1859s goes down Avery barely hanging on for
1861s dear life and was they just can't manage
1864s to close out this fight fast enough
1866s amount that able been able to Sol this
1867s out is absolutely insane they're making
1869s it expensive for the Royals to come back
1871s in and finally finally get themselves on
1874s the board the key thing there and at the
1876s tail end of all of that is that Arya
1877s holds on to the Blizzard there whereas
1878s vanish Royals are only going to have
1880s that overclock and again Fable don't
1883s want to give prototype the opportunity
1884s to find any of those flank angles any of
1886s those off angles where an like an
1888s overclock can be really valuable so
1890s expect Fable to again try and go quick
1892s with that blizzard it's up to prototype
1894s to use this overclock to Snuff that out
1896s but the teleporter is already out Fable
1898s are already looking for their way in
1901s like this is a terrible to go around the
1903s flank I'm actually loving this come on
1905s find it with both a May wall and the
1907s sigma Shield shoved up in protype face
1910s she doesn't have many options to work
1911s with all the meanwhile The Bard comes
1913s out on the other side people freezing
1915s the competition down to earth and oh the
1917s Vanquish Royals they had the plan
1919s prototype wanted to get in there but the
1920s counter play too good andu popped the
1923s ant Matrix on that as well and it didn't
1924s end up finding them a whole hill of
1926s beans Fable have one of their own
1927s they're coming up on a gravitic flux and
1930s a photon barrier of their own they've
1931s got all the tools they need to keep this
1933s one staggered out at least to 99
1935s Vanquish Royals they're coming up on a
1937s gravitic flux of their own but Avery has
1939s been getting the better of those
1940s exchanges quite consistently it's going
1941s to be a very very narrow window just
1943s like the one Avery slips through right
1945s past that mayalla the put on the grease
1949s there F on through and they manag to
1951s grab the FL yes that's the in the
1954s backline already throw on out foric flug
1956s on the other side W fish finally finds
1958s the mark that they wanted to but is it
1960s going to be enough for them to turn it
1962s around it is 99% right now and bble have
1965s all the shielding and the protection in
1966s the world to work with but as soon as
1967s this goes down you need to be a little
1969s bit scared heavily heavily outnumbered
1971s they are right now and Bor roals want to
1974s go ahead clean this one up IA once she
1976s comes out of the ice block this one is
1978s going to be set back over and vanish
1979s Royals are going to look to come on back
1981s for my money Annie resu is the hero of
1983s that fight using the using that
1985s immortality field to stay alive through
1986s the gravitic flux coming back with that
1987s early pickoff onto lime keeping
1989s everybody alive just great Baptist play
1992s top to bottom and that's the kind of
1993s thing that is going to keep Vanquish
1995s Royals in the fight right now but they
1996s only realistically have one fight that
1999s they can give up cuz Fable like I said
2001s did manage to get themselves up to 99
2003s they have a sound barrier they're coming
2004s up on a blizzard if they take their time
2006s and don't die on the way in this is
2008s going to be really scary for Vanquish
2010s Royals there's no more room for error on
2011s this sub point oh no I was just about to
2013s say prototype has to get early pick but
2015s it's that is Slim that gets prototype as
2017s the early pick oh this is terrible for
2019s Vanquish Royals they have the sound
2021s barrier in their back pocket it's going
2022s to have count to them later barely
2023s managed to hit on bra worm that's going
2025s to be one of your last ring to pull out
2027s to the at Matrix sure helps zone out the
2029s objective with that teleporter f are
2031s easily able to move on out of the way
2033s they take their time they find the Poke
2035s damage and it's line once again CV this
2037s happens every single time they will play
2040s the slow game until they get this pick
2041s off and just March straight over banging
2044s on the gates of Vanquish Royals and send
2046s them straight back to the spawn that'll
2049s be 99 hit hit for a second time a touch
2051s not happening one start for fable for
2055s those of you at home who might might be
2056s a little bit confused lime is sosler by
2059s the way they are one and the same and
2061s just like I said why they are such a
2062s great pickup for this team they're
2064s playing symmetra and consistently out
2066s dueling a soj who's supposed to be
2068s playing at range from a distance but
2070s lime consistently finding the better of
2072s those exchanges prototype not able to
2074s get the better of that exchange and then
2075s when you look at it like top to bottom
2077s like you know Z Panther getting play of
2079s the game just to outshine the one shout
2081s out to any resu that I gave it does look
2083s like from top to bottom at every role
2085s Fable on that map just out clashed
2088s Vanquish Royals there's still you know a
2089s lot of Talent on Vanquish Royals there
2091s still a lot of potential but right now
2092s this is Fable match to lose honestly I
2096s mean Fable looked so so darn good there
2098s they lost a total of two fights
2099s throughout that entire exchange which on
2101s a control map that's not something that
2103s you're going to see all that often I
2106s mean that really does show the prowess
2107s that they have on this composition Sigma
2109s one of Avery songers here as we can't
2111s talk about them enough and how good they
2113s did in that match against blobfish
2115s blobfish didn't do all that bad but when
2117s they're constantly either being burned
2118s down by a symmetra or walled off by ARA
2122s what are you even expected to do at that
2124s point the team is built around Avery
2126s slar and Ara being able to push on this
2129s oppression and it goes all the way back
2130s to that same P that you mentioned a
2132s little bit earlier C about how Avery and
2134s B they're in the driver seat where asro
2137s just looking at Bish Royals to have to
2138s react to that I mean we're going to keep
2141s talking about Avery at least I know I am
2142s because I want to make sure that they
2144s get the recognition they deserve cuz we
2145s always talk about the best tanks in
2146s calling all heroes and you bring up
2148s names like you know sniper moving fish
2151s all these other great Sigma players well
2153s Avery needs to be in that conversation
2155s and damn near the top of it and I feel
2157s like if Fable performs very well we're
2159s going to start seeing a little bit more
2160s of that and it's also going to be up to
2162s a lot of the other extremely talented
2164s members of fable to kind of pick that up
2166s a little bit help Avery write that
2168s narrative and also Forge their own names
2170s you know sosler again we mentioned how
2172s big of a pickup that is to come in from
2173s the championship team uh Timeless
2176s ethereal from the previous minor who did
2178s not drop a map and sosler was the soj
2180s player for the entirety of that they're
2182s playing symmetra and outd dueling a
2183s sojan they know the heroes so well they
2185s don't even need to play it in order to
2186s counter it and showing that you know hey
2189s I wasn't just being deadlifted by by a
2190s championship team like I was part of
2192s that championship team you they were
2193s successful in part because of me yeah
2196s and that has to be a scary thought right
2198s snar is playing a cetra often a hero
2201s that can be difficult to shine on to
2203s really stand out and that is exactly
2205s what SAR did in our map one and not to
2208s mention that even as we move on later
2210s into the maps hybrid of course being the
2211s next in either Midtown or Kings Row the
2213s fact that you're just sitting on a
2215s sojourn that you haven't had to pull out
2217s with which is arguably one of the best
2219s things we've ever seen out of snar
2221s that's going to be terrifying if you're
2222s vanquished Royals and and you know let's
2225s talk about that map pool by the way
2226s Midtown or King's Row pick your poison
2228s there both of those right now in the
2229s current landscape of OverWatch are very
2231s very strong Sigma Maps so you're not
2233s going to get to play something like
2234s maybe a Hollywood where you could
2236s theoretically Force Avery off of that
2237s Sigma onto something a little bit more
2239s dive you know hey Avery let's see how
2240s your monkey is let's see how your Diva
2242s plays like no you yeah you don't they're
2244s never going to have to swap never ever
2246s unless you are playing a dive
2247s composition that is so strong that it
2249s forces them off of that Sigma
2251s composition we'll talk about that a
2252s little bit later today if we do see
2254s anybody bust out that doomfist that we
2255s saw from time to time yesterday but if
2257s the name of the game is going to be a
2258s sigma mirror there are not many teams in
2261s this tournament that I would put that I
2262s would bet on over
2264s Fable no not at all I mean Avery you you
2267s say that they're underrated and yes I
2269s can agree with that I genuinely am on
2270s the boat of Avery is one of the best
2273s tank players and even one of the best
2275s Sigma players that you are going to see
2276s in this entire tournament The Meta could
2279s not have been in a better spot for fable
2280s right now and we are going to see them
2282s run through continue to run through that
2283s composition they're not happy about the
2285s game that they did end up losing
2286s yesterday they're at a two in one so
2288s going up to get a third on the board is
2290s going to be the best next step forward
2292s and speaking of next steps Kings Row is
2295s where we will be going to for our next
2297s map and you know when you think about
2299s that sigma's going to be fun this is
2301s where one of the places that you
2302s actually are going to do incredibly well
2303s and even more attuned to this more
2306s hybrid but bro style that Fable has been
2308s focused on yeah I I don't see this
2310s forcing any changes out of fable
2312s whatsoever I do say there is potential
2314s for a doomfist to come out here but we
2316s haven't really seen anything out of
2317s blobfish just yet to show that that is
2319s you know something that is in Vanquish
2321s Royals hero pool if that is something
2323s that that team is able to play
2324s effectively and with the way that they
2326s just kind of got outclassed by Fable I
2328s think their team coordination might be a
2330s little bit slippery it might be a little
2333s bit more a little too slippery to try
2334s and run something like a doomfist
2335s because doomfist it's a great
2337s composition plays in the sigma very very
2339s well but there is a lot that can go
2340s wrong and you know again we'll we'll
2342s talk about that if and when we see it
2344s but again it's a great map for a sigma
2346s brawl because you think of te row you
2347s think of a brawl you think you know
2349s that's where you know back in the the
2351s days of old when we had two tanks you
2353s know we were spoiled back then it would
2354s be like Ryan Zaria braw and then we've
2356s seen variations of Ryan brawl Zaria braw
2359s throughout the meta's past not as much
2361s Ryan brawl as I think some people would
2363s have liked I actually anticipated seeing
2364s a little bit more Ryan brawl this time
2366s around but Sigma is still the flavor of
2368s the past several months so no reason to
2371s swap
2372s now why why why change it up if it works
2374s stick with it yeah if it it broke don't
2376s fix it exactly I mean this is I don't
2378s expect Fable to switch anything if
2379s anyone's going to change here it is
2381s going to be Vanquish Royals and granted
2384s we don't have entirely a lot of
2386s information about their hero pool and
2388s Fable doesn't either so this is kind of
2389s the chance B Royals of course this is
2391s their map kick you do not want to be
2393s going down if you lose a third game here
2395s CB it's highly unlikely that you're
2397s going to be able to come back and be
2398s within that top eight so Bank Royals
2400s this is them fighting to stay alive in
2402s the third major to attempt to make it to
2405s those playoffs have a shot at that prize
2407s pool and those circuit points that we've
2408s been talking so much about and of course
2410s them thinking Kings Row is the best
2412s place for them to do it whether it is a
2414s comfort pick whether it's going to help
2415s them pull out something different in
2417s terms of the competition I don't know
2419s what it's going to be but what we just
2420s saw in Antarctic Peninsula something has
2422s to change whether it is in the hero
2424s composition or your play style what you
2426s just did did not work and we need to see
2428s something that's a little bit different
2430s the Synergy that Fable has right now is
2432s on another level and fish Royals have to
2434s recognize that what one thing I do kind
2436s of want to highlight is dynamic by the
2438s way brainworms 83 for those of you at
2440s home has a pretty strong Genji in their
2442s back pocket if I'm recalling correctly
2444s and that would loan itself quite well to
2447s a doomfist dive if Vanquish Royals do
2449s decide to bust that particular
2451s composition out but yeah again like we
2453s keep calling back to it Sigma I I want
2456s Sigma and Avery to be synonymous in
2458s people's minds I'm going to keep pushing
2460s that narrative until it becomes just
2462s what everybody think of they think of
2463s Sigma they think of either Toes or they
2465s think of Avery not necessarily in that
2468s order good good to clarify that always
2470s good to clarify that I mean hey good old
2472s space Grandpa himself is just an
2475s interesting spot in the meta a lot of
2476s people might call it boring call it slow
2479s personally I love watching this
2480s especially when it's Avery who just has
2482s this understanding of the hero and the
2484s mechanics that many other players canot
2486s not replicate so when you're pulling out
2489s this you always expect to see big things
2491s from a B2 set up play they are your
2493s person that you are going to be banking
2495s off of of course Fable will be kicking
2497s it off on the defense nothing too much
2499s changed so far as we expected and again
2502s you we talked about adaptability and
2504s that's kind of how this Sigma
2505s composition worked I mentioned how it
2507s like likes to flip the switch between a
2508s poke composition and a brawl composition
2510s and the way Fable are currently playing
2512s it they're not they're not messing
2515s around with any of that pokon sense they
2516s want to brawl and they're going to keep
2518s that up vanquished Royals they have to
2520s try and play something a little more
2521s Pokey I don't expect this Hanzo to stay
2523s but I do expect the ash to stick at
2526s least for a little bit there from Maple
2527s who does get subbed in by the way to
2529s play this specific hero look for Maple
2531s to be trying to take an angle that can
2533s circumvent Avery Shield get a big
2534s Dynamite pressure some of the members of
2536s fable back and Vanquish Royals can
2538s capitalize off taking space that
2540s way I do like to see it it's a different
2542s look but Maple has a big task on her
2546s shoulders right now and and mean look at
2547s the pressure that she's under that's the
2549s immortality heal out already just to
2550s keep her alive we B are nice and healthy
2553s all of the cool Downs in the world to be
2554s able to go off of and it's just trying
2556s to rer this V again she's on a very good
2559s off angle where she has to be positioned
2560s on the ash but the fact that we're not
2562s seeing any of these deciding moves it
2563s forces this composition to play much
2566s slower which fa we know them they like
2568s to keep the pace on up so thaner worlds
2570s end up waiting too long they're going to
2571s be the ones themselves that are gug on
2573s immortality out again to keep SW fish
2575s onto their feet but that's very
2577s dangerous for a squeaks around the
2579s corner of the hotel my goodness that
2581s amplification Matrix Anu ripped the door
2584s right open off of it anglish you can not
2586s asked any more from anaru to help Maple
2589s and brainworm get themselves in the
2591s fight he that's the second time this
2592s series that anaru has been the hero of
2594s the fight building up that ant Matrix
2596s very very quickly Z Panther had one as
2597s well but Fable opted not to use it I
2599s don't think they anticipated that the
2602s angle that that amp Matrix was at was
2604s actually going to get as much purchase
2605s as it did but maple found a huge
2607s Dynamite right through it that ended up
2609s helping seal the deal great play coming
2610s out from vanish Royals and now they want
2612s to try and push up and take some space
2614s but the TP is coming out from snaz going
2615s to make it real difficult as is that
2617s rock oh my gosh look at the amount of
2619s support that just went into blobfish
2620s even getting out of the blizzard but
2622s that is actually even if it doesn't
2623s catch anybody that orious blizzard it
2626s just prevented Vanquish Royals from
2627s pushing through that choke so now fa the
2628s opportunity to hold close and are going
2630s to have to pick more of their battles as
2633s they start to move on up Photon bar
2635s still holding them close the line way
2636s far out there but oh you're not flying
2638s in front of Avery blob finish expected
2640s that to get nailed with a rock that's a
2642s sigma di from Avery if I've ever seen
2645s one they just want to prove how good
2647s they are at this hero but maybe a little
2649s too good thought that they could 5 V1
2651s I'm sorry that is not going to happen in
2653s any realistic circumstance if Vish
2655s Royals yeah they're going to go ahead
2656s and punish Avery as good as that looks
2658s eie it got too far ahead I you called it
2661s out that that was a great individual
2662s play from Avery they are phenomenal
2664s especially when it comes to the sigma
2665s head-to-head but were focused on that
2667s there was so much else that was
2669s happening all over the board you had
2670s lime going in very deep and Z Panther
2673s having to use the immortality field just
2675s to try and keep lime alive you have the
2676s Bob coming out from Maple buying so much
2678s space for Vanquish Royals and they're
2680s able to win the fight off of all the
2681s chaos that surrounded it so yeah great
2683s play from Avery but you need more than
2685s that if you want to stop this Pain Train
2688s yeah you're going to need so much more
2689s this is the snow ball quite literally
2691s that you're working off of the
2692s teleporter helps yes but it doesn't save
2694s Avery and lime isn't going to be able to
2695s touch the so the snowball from the bay
2698s player is going to snowball into the
2700s third Point not even intended pun but
2702s I'm so glad that it is there I okay I I
2705s did say that it was a big teleporter but
2706s it just kind of teleported Avery you
2708s know slightly further out from the
2709s center of the blizzard but still very
2711s much so in it not so much out of The
2713s Frying Pan into the fire but slightly to
2715s the left of the frying pan like still in
2716s it and still very much so cooking they I
2720s mean they're not able to get close and
2721s execute this braw the way that they want
2722s to Vanquish Royals are doing a great job
2724s of keeping them but now we're getting
2725s close there's a huge wall coming up from
2727s Maria the Wall comes up but the wall
2730s isn't doing anything fa has been just
2732s scrambling backwards his whole squ
2734s people is the Super Sub coming in for
2736s this roster kills everybody you cannot
2739s ask for more from this player right now
2742s and the ash is paying huge dividends
2744s like I mentioned they're getting a lot
2745s better poke the dynamites are paying
2747s paying off huge they're even investing
2749s an re's ant matrices and finding a ton
2751s of value now Maple is in a place where
2752s no one really has the ability to
2754s dislodge her riic flux coming out from
2756s blish what is Fable going to do to
2757s respond here what can they do that has
2760s to be the actual question here sure
2761s Avery is going to be close to a but they
2763s have to stay alive and fight with the
2765s sound barrier that is coming out fish
2767s Royals they so close they can taste it
2769s and ay goes down before the ultimate can
2771s even make its Mark Maple has not been
2773s stopped She should not be allowed to be
2775s doing this much but F have let her get
2777s away with murder plus some and they're
2780s struggling here at the final couple of
2782s meters here on King's Row they don't
2784s have many options to work with the
2785s blizzard the what can even happen this s
2787s be doesn't even go off right now F
2789s Frozen up in the blizzard that one
2792s really has to hurt moving on because
2794s Vanquish Royals they're so close they
2796s absolutely know it and CB they're going
2799s to get it what a turnaround from our F
2802s number one Kings Row 3 minutes and 20
2804s seconds and a full completion I'm blown
2807s away I got to apologize Maple I was not
2809s familiar with your game here I thought
2811s that you were just an unhinged poster on
2813s Twitter but no turns out you're
2814s absolutely cracked out of your mind at
2815s the a 5k towards the end there and
2818s consistent pressure with the dynamites
2820s consistent angles and Fable You know
2823s despite having the Sim you might think
2824s like oh I can just TP onto the ash no
2826s she just coach guns away they're never
2827s able to adequately punish that and it's
2831s paying off huge rev Vanquish Royals you
2832s know I I wasn't expecting the ash to
2834s come out once I saw it I was like well
2836s yeah this is maple signature hero this
2838s is definitely going to stick there's
2839s value to this it does help with that
2841s poke phase and prevent Fable from
2842s transitioning effectively into the brawl
2845s which it never felt like they were able
2847s to do this is OverWatch 101 you know
2849s control the tempo control the pace and
2851s and speaking of pace Vanquish Royals set
2853s a blazing one 320 on the time bank good
2856s Lord fa will have a tall task in front
2858s of
2859s him can they even do it at this point
2862s would you look at what fish roals did
2864s sure maybe they had a little bit of
2865s trouble getting started but as soon as
2867s it as soon as that little spark was lit
2869s it burned and it kept Burning Ring
2871s Wildfire there could not tame and quite
2874s literally that spark was maple on this
2877s ash coming in maybe a rather
2878s unconventional hero That You Don't See
2880s as often in this meta but she is so darn
2882s good at this hero where she's positioned
2884s keep an eye on how she sets up
2886s throughout this defense the thing with
2888s Ash to right is that she kind of plays
2889s in a similar fashion to the soier they
2891s both excel at mid-range but Ash can put
2893s out a lot of damage much more quickly
2895s whereas soen has to kind of charge up
2897s she has very good sustained damage but
2898s Ash is just constantly hitting those
2900s bodies and those head shot and Fable
2902s they don't want to take it they're going
2903s to circumvent it eat a big Dynamite to
2904s try and do it the tel is actually just
2907s completely aborted that plan they have
2909s to go back and even then they're still
2911s split see a couple on multiple sides of
2913s the statue and down go Panther to none
2915s other than maple you got to be checking
2917s Maple this isn't going to happen the
2919s teleporters yes they look great from
2921s snar as always but this is just not
2923s working right now I I I almost kind of
2925s want to see them swap off of the
2926s symmetra here I don't think they're
2927s going to be able to get close enough and
2929s even if they're able to there's going to
2930s be those dynamites coming out Maple has
2932s it scouted she's constantly waiting for
2934s that teleporter to come out somewhere
2936s one to walk through it and whoever that
2937s person is they're going to have they're
2939s going to have a dynamite waiting for
2940s them at the other end of
2942s it going set on fire or you don't even
2945s need the fire Maple opens it up again
2947s this just can't keep happening line has
2949s to get in there make this symmetra start
2951s to work out but m is in the backline
2953s that's a second both supports and a
2955s third C how did she keep doing it I
2958s nobody is able to check her I like I
2960s keep saying like nobody from Fable
2961s really is equipped aside from maybe Kopi
2964s to try and deal with this ash play like
2966s she can just have a field day do
2967s whatever she wants take whatever angle
2969s she wants and as long as she doesn't get
2970s caught out with a May wall or lose a
2972s duel with a Lucio she's fine she has all
2975s the angles she could possibly want
2976s blobfish Shields are doing a great job
2978s of setting her up and enabling her and
2980s continually nobody can check her she has
2981s the Bob so no one's about to check her
2983s now and now it's a 6 fe5 with everyone's
2986s favorite robot Butler on the field
2988s people just back off they' run away
2990s understandably you need to get out of
2991s that situation because if they can
2992s stagger anymore you're in big trouble
2995s we're going to have have the photon
2996s barrier we're going to have the ant
2997s Matrix but we're walking into a gravitic
2999s flux and a blizzard and the gravitic
3000s flux going to come out early here sound
3002s barrier to respond and those blizzard
3004s quite to counter that one out and this
3006s going to be a big fight for f they'
3008s already expended both the for ultimates
3009s now the photon barrier on top of it the
3011s best chance they're going to have so far
3013s but I mean Vanquish Royals they're
3015s playing the patient game you're sitting
3016s on the window and of course the blizzard
3018s that could just be chucked out any
3019s moment there's no strict counter that
3021s you're going to see from Fable as soon
3023s as that ultimate decides to come out if
3025s it is even Neary Maple it has her eyes
3027s on another off angle this time she is
3029s checked out has to rotate more back over
3032s to that Central area and this fight has
3034s been going on for quite some time the
3036s resource bars are running low but the
3037s ultimate not at all sound be out for a
3040s gratic flux but this one has a blizzard
3042s underneath it we wanted to see the combo
3043s for Vish Royals but we're going to get
3045s it from Fable instead yes they have a
3047s pickoff but they're still down in
3049s numbers as far as this one goes are
3051s going to get a KCK maybe two out of it
3054s before we'll see a full contest start
3056s the key thing though they managed to
3058s take down blobfish so bble should have a
3060s way in here but they're having a
3061s struggle just to keep Avery alive cuz
3062s they lost both their DPS but Maple is
3064s still on the field wreaking havoc he
3066s takes down Z Panther dead push Fable are
3069s going to walk away with only one tick
3070s and 60 seconds to try and make something
3072s out of it they're going to have a couple
3073s of support holds to work with but you
3075s got a bob on the other side another ant
3077s Matrix Maple and Anu have been working
3079s in tandem phenomenally for the side of
3081s Vanquish Royals and Fable haven't had an
3082s answer for it Maple is already looking
3084s for something big a nice Dynamite there
3086s where is she going to place this bom
3089s it's straighten behind them if she needs
3091s to that's going to be the bomb putting
3092s out ARA has to try to run away can she
3094s get the S no but it forces out the sound
3096s barrier from Fable a Boer sound bar you
3098s take that trade any day of the week cuz
3100s now you're going to look at an even a
3102s gratic flux coming up you don't have a
3103s counter arus is going to have to back up
3106s graic flux up their own grabs a couple
3108s in the back line they're going to be
3110s able to stay alive they're on an angle
3111s that can't be followed up on and with it
3113s being near last fight something has to
3115s happen someone has to strike and Arya
3117s finally getting off of that symmetra
3119s seems to be the play onto the soldier
3121s the test looking highly unlikely took so
3124s much Fable to get there but the payload
3126s finally is on the move it it was not
3128s clean we expect a lot more cleanliness
3130s coming out from Fable it's a great clean
3132s up there from Arya speaking of being
3133s clean but Vanquish Royals they make it
3135s bloody they make it Scrappy they make it
3137s dirty it's ugly but it's effective I
3140s mean and the one ugly thing I'll say
3141s about it is again Maple has been the
3143s star of this roster here on Kings Row
3145s hands down you know give the assist to
3147s Anu for a lot of this but maple on this
3149s Ash has been paying off huge and Fable
3152s even though they cap the point it still
3153s doesn't feel like they found an answer
3155s to it they're going to play so far up
3156s right now that they're not going to give
3157s Maple a chance to set up anywhere nice
3159s and neat where she can perch and keep
3161s putting out those dynamites but they're
3162s going to eventually have to concede that
3164s in favor of continuing the cart push and
3165s that's where Vanquish Royals are going
3167s to push themselves right back up into
3168s the prey and now it's time for the brawl
3171s but with ARG being on the soldier you
3172s now have a counter out to Maple the
3174s blizzard one hits one doesn't and it's
3177s the one of fable that will land the mark
3179s and Arya takes it shooting fish and a
3181s barrel essentially in blobfish and now
3184s Fable they're the ones that are starting
3186s to get this snowball rolling on forward
3187s they need that momentum back Avery is
3189s hungry not just for making a name for
3191s themselves but also for blizzards
3193s apparently that's the second one that
3194s we've at least seen that they've eaten
3196s coming out from brain warms so I great
3198s play from Fable and you do kind of need
3200s more than that but that's such a Razor's
3201s Edge thing to be able to pull off even
3203s once to try and consistently rely on
3206s Avery shutting down these big ultimates
3208s you need to have more than that or
3210s Vanquish Royals you know they found
3211s their inch they're going to take a mile
3213s yeah like now you have a gratic FL so
3215s unless a loock manages to hit midair
3217s you're in trouble sound at least in
3219s place this time but it puts ARA exactly
3221s where she wants to be that's the
3222s overclock on The High Ground blob fish
3224s coming in with a little bit of a
3225s friendly assist graphitic block to seal
3228s the deal and Fa as floppy as this attack
3231s has been they're squeaking by each
3233s checkpoint to keep themselves alive that
3236s that did feel like a pretty fast streets
3237s phase for fable but me look at the time
3239s bank even making up for all that lost
3241s time they're still at a huge deficit
3243s where they're going to have maybe a
3244s minute if they're lucky if they do
3246s manage to finish this at all it's still
3247s not a guarantee especially if they lose
3249s this fight right now ARA nearly gives it
3252s ight there 10 HP was all that stood
3254s between Fable and potential disaster
3256s there if Vanquish Royals get the chance
3258s to set up it very well could be over
3260s this Bob from Maple is going to help
3262s them do just
3264s that Bob will be held on to for quite
3267s some time Maple doesn't want to use it
3268s until the opportunity is right you want
3270s to slow down the time because even if
3272s you get fabl out under a minute or to
3274s overtime me that is going to be huge for
3276s them so waiting for that moment to
3278s strike but beautiful accretion stops the
3280s bom from getting further everyone else
3281s is caught up in a blizzard B mortality e
3283s it in from downtown not enough to save
3286s blobfish unfortunately for them but the
3288s counter Blizzard from the other side
3290s allows FS a little bit of stability if
3292s Arya wasn't as good as she is at this
3295s soldiered we mentioned that we wanted to
3297s see it before has been sitting on it for
3299s so long waiting for that moment to pull
3301s it out and she just looks absolutely
3303s amazing but they lost Avery in that
3305s fight so you can see all this C progress
3306s but it's going to feel like just a few
3308s inches cuz they're going to have to
3309s concede all of it right now back up
3311s they're now under a minute we're looking
3312s at that situation where it might just be
3314s in overtime and that's an unwinable
3316s situation if you're Fable you have to
3317s come correct and you don't have a whole
3319s lot to do it no this is the fight that
3322s you have to win maybe sound barriers on
3324s both sides and is that that's going to
3326s be big absolutely Bish Royals they have
3327s to pop STS first just to save blockfish
3329s so the later souber here is going to be
3332s the winner but it doesn't matter if the
3333s sigma takes a dive off of The Foundry of
3336s Kings Row almost a second Bove coming on
3338s in this is absolutely insane for fable
3340s right now they have the opportunity
3341s there it's another one FY popping off on
3344s the L this roster so incredibly
3346s well-rounded they don't need one player
3347s to pop off they can all do it themselves
3349s CB this game is going the distance shout
3352s out to fipy I mean that that's two huge
3355s boobs and and it's the two most tanky
3356s characters literally the tank and may
3359s that end up getting booped off the side
3360s there those boops don't happen Fable
3362s does not complete with time in the bank
3364s this is still winnable very difficult
3367s and you know they're at a huge time
3368s deficit compared to Vanquish Royals but
3370s still winnable for fable and the only
3372s reason it's still winnable is because
3375s fipy single-handedly took away Vanquish
3378s Royal's ability to contest the point
3379s they really only realistically only
3381s would have been left with niff there on
3383s the Lucio but I think that I think ni
3385s had died earlier in the fight and wasn't
3386s able to get back in time Fable able to
3388s kind of walk it in but I kind of felt
3390s more like they were hobbling it in like
3391s they had just you know come out of a
3393s zombie apocalypse crawling back with
3395s bite marks all over their legs like help
3397s help I've made it back to safety but I'm
3399s going to turn any moment
3403s now you you couldn't have said that any
3406s better honestly I mean Fable brought
3408s that in beaten down and broken so now
3411s that they're once again on this attack
3412s starting out with a lower time bank yet
3414s don't have four minutes to get this
3416s point you need to do it fast you have
3417s one maybe maybe two options the one
3420s thing that we do like though is that
3422s orya will be starting on the soj there
3424s is not going to be a symmetra and that
3426s has worked out so much better for them
3427s as soon as that swap was made something
3429s that I want to go ahead and call out
3431s here though if you look at the
3432s Silhouettes right now where the ash is
3433s playing Maple is playing on the low
3435s ground and I feel like if you speed
3437s boost onto the ash there and at least
3438s Force the coach gun back you can take a
3441s lot of space and that puts a lot of
3442s pressure onto brainworms to hit a big
3443s wall to kind of stop that from happening
3445s if they're able to do so speaking of May
3447s WS though a couple ding ones come out
3450s wow limes May walls have been Stellar
3452s coming out on the May you got to love
3453s the flexibility but you don't love when
3455s your Lucio player has a head randomly
3457s rolling around in King's Row vanquished
3459s Royals still have maple sitting down do
3462s not let don't sleep on her at all Arya
3464s yes has a nice off angle to work with
3466s but as long as Maple is alive bble they
3468s are in a very tricky situation now all
3470s cowled up in the back end of King R how
3472s is pH even going to manage to meet up
3474s with them you only have one support and
3476s you got to tou the point there's 15
3478s seconds remaining Avery nearly dying
3480s there they have to try and put
3481s everything in to try and keep Avery
3483s alive this is Fable only chance they're
3485s going to have an ant Matrix they might
3486s just barely beat an reu to the punch but
3488s look at the gravitic flux charge
3489s Blobfish is coming up ahead in that it's
3492s going to be very very close but there's
3493s a narrow window for Vish Royals to shut
3495s this one out they have the chance I me
3498s fa this is all on them yes the ultimate
3500s is there and Oreo sitting behind the ant
3502s Matrix is beautiful and getting out mael
3504s you can't get value out ofish Royals at
3507s this time but they do have the faster
3508s graic Flex it's three up in the air but
3510s it gets shut down the blizzard no
3512s blockfish good frozen out of the one
3514s thing that was going to end this push
3516s right here now Vanquish Royals that is
3518s worst case scenario because you're going
3520s to have to stop this payload this is
3522s where it's all going to go Fable way
3524s they got to ride the wave keep that
3525s momentum going they have their own
3527s gravitic flux they they've managed to
3528s freeze blobfish out of theirs and now
3532s with that off the table Fable should be
3533s able to get at least one good clean
3535s fight here RMS is coming up on azard of
3537s their own so we'll have to see if that
3539s ends up manifesting if that pays off in
3541s any meaningful way but I mean Avery has
3543s been snacking on those like Chipotle
3545s burritos left and right just a nice a
3548s blizzard for lunch time and time again
3550s Fable they going to try and take a
3551s little bit of space not get too greedy
3553s wait for vanish Ro to fall into their
3554s trap and it has now been sprung there it
3557s is the zombie are all out players
3559s separated and split now it's on to Aran
3561s to find the final blows but in fact it
3562s is blobfish who gets their first
3564s everyone else is but a the third time is
3566s ice cream for watch ooh one of the best
3568s things other than Chipotle got to say
3570s big Royals right now this is their
3572s chance to start to stabilize but can
3574s they even do so fa have dumped so many
3576s resources into this fight alone and no
3579s one has seen or has been hiding off in
3581s the small little nook and cranny of
3583s King's Row and the S it has to stop
3585s somewhere CB I I don't see it stopping
3588s anytime soon I mean Vanquish Royals
3590s they've swapped Maple off of the ash
3591s over onto the sooden so now we've got
3593s the sooden duel that Arya is getting the
3594s best better of and you need to have that
3596s so on the field for this power slide for
3598s the quickness to get back into the fight
3599s get a good angle as quickly as you
3601s possibly can but in terms of tools to
3603s use B got an A Matrix you ain't got
3605s squat no absolutely not I mean this just
3608s zones them out this is forcing bable if
3610s they even decide to touch here it's not
3611s going to be in a pable position to do so
3613s at all you'll see that both anies from
3615s poish they're out here they have no team
3617s to support them the staggers this is one
3619s table wanted to happen split and
3621s dividing and conquering it needs to go
3623s happen now that's as Avery can man alive
3625s the Mayall has separated them out now
3627s with the at anaru that helps them push
3630s this down blockfish only getting the
3631s flux out with the tail end and this
3635s finally finally will be the time where
3636s Vanquish are up in players to shut down
3639s the push Fable we're making a fairy tale
3641s story of a run the blizzard even coming
3643s out this one's not done just yet Li is
3645s still fighting the elimination surely
3647s she can't close this one out no no we
3649s can breathe we can f everything is okay
3652s Fable they end the fairy tale run here
3654s but for minute TB this ain't too bad at
3656s all for a split second there I was like
3658s with the blizzard and with lime finding
3660s that kill like maybe there was a chance
3661s for Avery to come back on the Doom fist
3663s but they were far too too far away to
3665s really keep that stagger alive but
3667s that's for only a minute on the clock
3669s that's pretty respectable cart progress
3670s and it is indeed a win condition for
3672s both Vanquish Royals and for fable there
3674s is no longer a chance of a draw here
3677s we're either going to a map three or
3679s fable are going to write their names
3681s down in the history books here set
3683s themselves up go through one and swiss
3685s but I Vanquish Royals they they haven't
3688s made it easy and it's not going to be
3689s easy for fable to try and keep this
3691s defense going realistically all it takes
3694s is Annie resu getting an ampt Matrix or
3696s Maple finding a pick which is something
3698s that has happened as often as you know
3701s it happens like every time it feels like
3702s every time you breathe there's a chance
3704s of that can happen and Fable don't
3706s really get a chance to breathe
3707s themselves they have to try like that's
3708s Play Perfect there's really no other way
3710s to say it they have to play nearly
3712s perfect for almost four minutes yeah
3715s Royals look like a completely different
3717s team from what we saw on map 1 CB and
3718s Vel they're just now starting to realize
3721s that on now seeing that you have to
3723s defend this for four minutes this is
3724s completely winable for fish Royals right
3727s now this is the opportunity that they
3729s wanted to have and they might as well
3731s take it to a map three with how it's
3733s been going the momentum they've had is
3734s insane Maple though has been quieter
3737s since we've seen the Arya swap countered
3739s out a little bit more but now a
3741s different hero coming out the
3743s Archer yeah anguish Royals really
3745s shaking things up in terms of the DPS
3747s picks we haven't seen a whole lot of the
3748s Hanzo but it makes sense and oh my
3750s goodness there go line all right that
3752s might already be it fish Royals they can
3754s push in on this yeah Fable they rely so
3756s much on lme putting a May wall up to
3758s either save Avery or guarantee an
3759s elimination now you have neither of
3761s those Avery dies so v Royals you're Ving
3764s out here the Hanzo good switch to add
3766s that additional pressure and of course
3767s anaru a third DPS oh excuse me I mean
3770s support out here absolutely insane for
3773s Vanquish Royals I mean this is looking
3774s better and better for them every moment
3776s I mean okay so Arya finds the pickup
3778s there onto any re I'm not sure where
3780s Arya is lurking currently but she might
3782s be in a place where she can get a little
3783s bit of a contest try and stagger things
3785s out or if nothing else by Fable time
3787s doesn't look like she's going to be able
3788s to I think she just gets out we have to
3789s find out where she uh where she ended up
3791s going but if you're Fable right now your
3793s entire hopes of winning this map is
3795s going to rest on this Archway right here
3797s that you see before your very eyes who
3799s is going to be able to get the better of
3800s it that puts a lot of pressure on the
3802s maze to get some good walls try and
3804s section off the enemy sigas and for I
3806s mean the sigas and the supports to try
3807s and find a way to survive that Onslaught
3810s Maple though is going to just completely
3811s try and circumvent it with that off
3813s angle there keep taking that window keep
3815s forcing B to look in a different
3817s direction yeah like that's the thing you
3819s run the Hanzo for this one pick
3820s potential I Maple sticking true to her
3822s name chucking tree trunks down mid and
3824s vanage Royals yeah you're looking for
3826s that to come off but it's the mayol you
3828s need to be scared of that snar has been
3831s ridiculous when it's come to it so far
3833s and it has to commit the full ultimate
3834s doesn't even break the part of the wall
3835s that Blobfish is behind I mean this is
3837s what we're talking about from fa right
3839s now line has looked far and above at the
3840s main
3842s oh okay so that's an icicle yeah that's
3845s a that's not brain worms that's a brain
3847s icicle to the Dome there Arya Peak out a
3849s little bit too long that's a icicle
3850s through an ant Matrix and you know so we
3853s saw when blobfish went down Vish Royals
3854s backed up but with Arya off the field
3856s and blobfish back they have to do no
3857s such thing oh this hurts this hurts
3860s right now Fable they need to make
3861s something happen give the gra flux from
3863s that side now it's BL tur no oh it's
3865s cancelled again CB oh my gosh blobfish
3868s has not been finding anything with these
3870s gravitic Bloods and that right there is
3871s going to allow fa to stick in this fight
3873s they're committing the S barrier and the
3875s blizzard what am I watching right now B
3877s they've lost too many they got to
3878s regroup you need to stop it now but the
3880s overclock on top of this that's the four
3882s ultimate we're going to see in this
3883s fight alone and Arya I'm sorry but you
3885s need to back up I I mean I don't I don't
3888s knows about using that overclock I also
3891s don't know about using that blizzard for
3892s brainworms they had already lost blob
3893s fish and you know they wanted to press
3895s an advantage that they just didn't have
3897s and now you know they don't have they
3899s have nothing they have no more SS
3900s they're getting a little bit of ground
3901s off of some of the picks that they got
3902s but Fable is regrouping they're going to
3904s be able to come back up and aggressively
3905s push the Blobfish with the blizzard of
3907s their own and Blobfish is not nearly as
3908s hungry as Avery no not at all and off
3912s just can't get this one done sectioned
3914s off and somehow FIP gets anaru that bad
3917s that's bad for fish Royal you don't have
3919s a main support and you can see they're
3920s getting the heack out of that situation
3922s but if you're stuck between a mall and
3924s an
3925s o last spot that you want to be but at
3927s this point you just need to reset
3929s they're going to have maybe one more
3930s chance to push all the way through the
3931s remainder of second point and a blizzard
3933s would be really really nice right about
3935s now if your brain warms I would you know
3936s going back a couple fights I would love
3938s to have that back right now cuz we're
3940s looking at dueling ant matrixes and a
3942s very significant gravitic flux Advantage
3944s for fable this is where Fable can really
3946s start to push it into overtime or just
3948s shut this one out completely Anu comes
3950s out but it's May waled off duing one
3952s comes out from Z Panther and and
3954s Vanquish Royals they just have to kite
3956s it yeah just play around the corner do
3958s not be risking that rifle no no bad
3960s Maple bad that is going to hurt your
3962s team and even their chances coming back
3964s into third time you gave that one to
3965s orya for free ay SC F seals the deal
3968s back down onto their head and as good as
3971s they looked vanish Royals they came back
3973s they looked so gosh darn better on
3976s King's Row but they can't close it out
3978s Fable remain on top and will take their
3981s round of Swiss and they continue to give
3983s themselves an opportunity to write the
3985s next chapter of this fairy tale I'm
3987s going to keep pushing the Avery
3988s propaganda and at the end it's just a
3991s small thing from Avery that I think
3993s helps seal it holding that gravitic flux
3995s for as long as they did really really
3997s making Vanquish Royals sweat and buying
3999s every second as they ticked away knowing
4001s the Clock Was vanish Royal's worst enemy
4004s at that point in time that's just that's
4007s just Sigma 101 that's key Sigma play
4009s that's phenomenal stuff coming out we'll
4011s have to see uh you know who the MVP ends
4013s up being uh the Chipotle MVP but I have
4016s a feeling and I am at least going to be
4018s lobbying for a certain someone but you
4021s know had Vanquish Royals come out with a
4023s victory here it would be Maple for me I
4025s mean Maple Maple did everything that she
4028s possibly could have on that Ash pick to
4030s try and buy Vanquish Royals back into
4032s this series and it at times looked like
4034s more than enough but it turns out at the
4036s Midnight Hour it just wasn't no I if
4040s you're Maple right now you put her in
4042s you expect something different to happen
4043s we haven't seen Maple and you know you
4045s you have to be optimistic right and
4047s clearly they thought it was the right
4048s move and yes it was Maple did God's work
4051s out there she looked absolutely insane
4053s all the way through that attack and
4055s helped almost St fa on this defense but
4058s they couldn't keep it up he switched
4059s Arya over to the soj and of course Avery
4061s just doing Avery things and there's only
4063s so much one player can do and that's
4065s kind of what we want to look at is able
4067s they're just go the roster every single
4069s player knows what they can do and how to
4072s pull their own weights and that's not to
4074s say we don't see the same thing for Bish
4075s Royal there's just a different level of
4077s syy from Fable that they're able to pull
4079s out and just assort their dominance on
4081s certain points of this series and this
4083s map as close and exciting as kings Rose
4086s was we will not get that third map today
4089s and you know what else Fable have shown
4090s us today I mean they they've shown us
4092s Synergy they've shown us skill across
4094s the board their tanking ability you know
4096s snaza and Arya both being phenomenal DPS
4099s players but they've also shown us as a
4101s collective the ability to adapt Under
4103s Pressure I can't think of anything you
4105s know more pressuring than an overtime
4107s scenario where the enemy team has nearly
4109s four times as much time in the bank to
4112s make something happen and they're able
4114s to keep calm under that situation find
4116s the picks they need to force the
4117s mistakes out of Vanquish Royals that
4119s they need to and you know cause Vanquish
4120s Royals to essentially blow their entire
4123s lead where they just don't have anything
4124s left in the tank there's no ultimates
4126s they no longer have an advantage they
4127s can't force positioning they're having
4129s to play through that that Archway which
4130s is a very very lethal choke point on
4132s Kings Row potentially the most dangerous
4135s not one of the most dangerous in the
4136s game but definitely an underrated one
4138s one that people do need to start to
4139s respect and that they do need to uh you
4141s know start to think about a little bit
4143s more when they pick this map and hey
4145s there's only so many in the map pool
4147s that we have to look forward to and I'm
4148s very glad that we got this Kings Row
4150s today we got to see the true strength
4152s that Vanquish Royals can and putting
4154s themselves up against as good of a team
4156s as Fable but we are not done with this
4158s series just yet we still have an
4160s interview on the match MVP for this game
4162s to come up so don't go anywhere we be
4164s back in just a few
4169s [Music]
4186s [Music]
4193s minutes

4342s he
4347s [Music]
4351s welcome back everybody we just came off
4353s the tail end of fable versus Vanquish
4356s Royals and it it was a 20 in favor of
4359s fable but when you watch Kings Row back
4361s it really didn't feel like it it
4363s definitely felt like that was a lot
4364s closer than it had any right to be we
4367s are back with the Chipotle Real Talk
4370s interview coming up here we've got Avery
4373s on the horn here
4374s here uh but first let's talk about the
4378s Chipotle MVP and you know we talked a
4380s lot about on the side of Vanquish Royals
4382s Maple and what she was doing and how
4384s much of a threat she was well part of
4385s being calm under pressure is being able
4387s to win out those duel and Arya on the
4390s sojourn did just that yeah Arya was
4394s incredible whether it was on the May or
4396s the sojourn most notably on Kings Row
4398s things were looking dire for when we saw
4400s Fable and you know what caused it it was
4402s Arya making the correct swap over to the
4404s soj countering out Maple forcing her
4407s onto mirring a souljour and it just
4409s didn't look nearly as good because Arya
4411s always has this hero in her back pocket
4413s ready to pull out and she chose just the
4416s right moment to go ahead and do that so
4418s congratulations to her for beinging our
4420s Chipotle match MVP for today and we get
4424s to go and take a bit of a journey back
4425s because not only was she on the soldier
4427s CD but the incredible work she did on
4428s the may as well I mean also you know you
4430s know I was looking at that stats card
4432s and I was looking at only five death
4434s which you know for as bloody of a game
4436s as Kings Row was to only die five times
4438s like that's pretty insane you know a lot
4440s of these other players were having you
4442s know a lot more like eight nine 10
4444s deaths like it's really really hard to
4446s not only stay that calm Under Pressure
4448s but stay alive under that much pressure
4450s and that is what makes you the Chipotle
4452s MVP Arya congratulations but we got a
4455s teammate of yours to talk about he side
4458s note yesterday for fables game Avery was
4460s the MVP and I believe we interviewed
4462s Arya this time reversed AR is the MVP
4465s and we've got an interview with Avery
4467s Avery how are you doing today
4469s congratulations on the win hi how's it
4473s going going going quite well I want to
4476s go ahead and start off by asking you you
4478s you know we're mutuals on Twitter we see
4480s each other interacting from time to time
4482s one thing that I can definitely attest
4484s to uh with you specifically is that
4486s you're a very hungry player you seem
4488s very very eager to prove yourself so if
4491s you could go ahead and kick things off
4492s by letting us know what is it exactly
4494s that you want to prove to
4497s everybody uh it's a lot of you know I
4499s gotta I want to prove myself to
4501s everybody but I also want to prove
4502s myself you know to myself I want to um
4506s just show that I am always working to be
4509s the best player I can be and that I'm
4511s not even there yet and uh I just want
4513s you know people to start putting some
4515s respect on my name and um yeah that's
4518s about
4519s it and hey I intend to make sure that
4522s that that that happens I'm leading the
4524s propaganda train right now thank you I
4526s app and if you ever get the chance to
4528s watch this back later after you're done
4529s with your games today you'll know that
4531s how much we respect you as a player and
4533s how much that you do deserve to be
4534s talked about your Sigma was a major part
4537s of Fable Journey within this series and
4538s a big reason why you guys are currently
4540s sitting at 3 and one as you're getting
4543s ready to move on to your other games
4545s today I I want to talk a little bit more
4547s game specific with you being kind of on
4550s this Sigma Ro how much has that really
4552s affected you like your position within
4554s the team what's kind of your main job
4556s there uh yeah so I obviously Sigma is my
4559s best hero it's what I'm most experienced
4561s on so um we had the option to Pivot and
4565s play a lot of different comps but um we
4567s just kind of landed on playing Sig
4569s mostly just because that is my comfort
4571s and I think uh the team is pretty
4573s comfortable with it too um I don't know
4575s as Sigma in these comps you have you're
4577s kind of just the punching bag for a lot
4579s of it you're just taking space you're
4580s trying to take all the resources for
4582s your teammates so your teammates can be
4583s set up for success and that's kind of a
4585s style I like because I I trust my
4587s teammates obviously I've been playing
4588s with a million um Panther for a long
4592s time now and uh then obviously limey and
4595s Carol are both great so I just want to
4597s be able to set them up because I know
4599s they're going to be able to succeed and
4601s if I do my job then they're GNA get the
4602s kills
4603s so be in the punching bag that's tanking
4606s baby that's tanking 101 you get to be a
4608s punching bag you just spoke for every
4610s single tank player in the entire world
4612s right there and hey we appreciate it but
4614s I do want to talk a little bit more
4616s about the event as a whole of course
4618s we've seen you participating in every
4620s single one of our calling all heroes
4621s events previously and you've looked
4623s absolutely outstanding but I kind of
4624s want to talk and hear from you about
4626s what kind of the whole idea of calling
4628s out Heroes and having this competition
4629s what that means to
4631s you uh calling all heroes for me is just
4633s like a super great space and Community
4636s uh ever since the start of the year when
4637s I started competing uh in calling all
4640s heroes I've met so many great people and
4642s it's just been a really friendly
4643s environment and everyone uh at least
4646s almost everyone obviously there's a
4648s little bit of rivalry but um you want to
4650s build each other up and and everyone's
4653s like got each other's back so I've just
4654s really appreciated the community and
4656s it's been unlike anything that I've uh
4658s experienced before in Competitive
4661s Gaming love to hear I mean it it does
4664s very much so feel like a community here
4666s well we're coming up towards the end of
4668s the Chipotle Real Talk interview so I've
4670s got a personal question if you're ready
4671s for it are you ready go for it was the
4673s question that was just me at checking
4675s before I asked all right we're going to
4676s get personal here what is your Chipotle
4679s order uh I usually go for like a like a
4682s Barbacoa
4683s burrito um I don't know some sour cream
4687s cheese lettuce uh black beans white rice
4691s it's all good okay I was Barbacoa is a
4694s pretty good shout actually I was
4696s expecting like you know carneada because
4697s I think like I think steak is like the
4699s go-to for a lot of us meat eaters out
4701s there but barboa is a pretty good very
4703s interesting but yeah I'm a big bar bar
4706s is that right yeah great great great for
4710s the you can't go wrong with any of the
4711s toppings any any any meat any protein
4714s hey or no protein you can go for you
4716s know all veg and it' still be delicious
4718s but that's going to be it for the
4719s Chipotle Real Talk interview thank you
4721s very much for joining us Avery congrats
4723s on another win and we look forward to
4724s seeing a little bit more of you in the
4725s tournament going on uh going forward
4727s from here yeah thank
4731s you all right well
4734s you know Barbacoa I I'm GNA have to try
4736s that next time I don't know if I've had
4738s Barbacoa I usually go for chicken
4740s personally that's my that's my go-to but
4742s you know we'll have more opportunities
4743s to talk about that spoiler alert I'm
4745s going to ask literally everybody that we
4747s interview that question if uh you know
4749s as long as they're from a place where
4750s there's a
4751s Chipotle if we if we interview like a a
4754s player that just so happens to be in
4756s like an EU country where Chipotle may or
4758s may not exist I don't want to put them
4759s on the spot and be like uh quickly
4762s Google the menu anything like that you
4764s know but those of us we know and we love
4766s it and we're here to try and await those
4768s burrito codes but uh you know any uh any
4771s other thoughts that you have on on map
4773s one or you just looking on to uh to our
4776s match two oh I'm always looking on I
4778s mean this series might as well have been
4780s three maps with that King's Row coming
4782s into play it was long it was grueling
4784s and it was beautiful to be able to watch
4786s Fable yes they will be moving on to a
4789s greater record three and one for now
4791s vanish Royals yeah they're still going
4792s to be in it and so are these several

6033s welcome back everybody to calling all
6036s heroes it is radiant Heroes major 3 my
6039s name is CB I am joined Again by the
6041s lovely tiny shiny in chat we just
6044s witnessed a pretty a fireworks display
6048s of a match and while that fireworks
6049s display between Fable and roals was
6052s going off a tactical nuke was dropped
6054s elsewhere in the standings bracket I
6056s think I want to take a look at that
6057s really quick because something happened
6059s chat off stream that has not happened in
6063s 29 Maps I you know I told dor yesterday
6066s I fed him the line that it was 26 and
6068s then 27 if they beat BT blue but it was
6070s a 29 map win streak for Timeless
6073s ethereal that has been snapped clean in
6076s half by Michael wave wow all you can say
6079s right there is wow you are looking at
6082s Timeless ethereal to be the team to come
6085s out on top how many events have they R
6086s in a row past three if I'm not mistaken
6089s I mean they are absolutely ridiculous
6091s when it comes to these calling all
6093s heroes events and the fact that they are
6095s on the brink of going undefeated to be
6097s snapped by Michael wave 20 nonetheless
6101s that is absolutely insane and you know
6104s what CB this feeds us perfectly into our
6107s next matchup team one team two you see
6111s the top of the
6113s standings and we've got nyxl Embers
6116s versus Michael wave that is going to be
6118s our next matchup of the day like you
6121s said numbers one and numbers two both
6123s currently undefeated in this Swiss
6125s bracket but only one of them can
6127s continue that undefeated streak and
6129s start forging one of their own we'll see
6130s if they're able to build up one that uh
6132s Stacks up against the one that Timeless
6134s at the aiel is going to be picking up
6136s the pieces of from here on out this
6138s changes a lot of the narratives and a
6139s lot of the story surrounding this tour
6141s you know last minor it was okay who can
6144s even take a map off of Timeless now it's
6146s okay who's the new top dog going to be
6148s is it going to be that polite little
6149s fellow you see on your right or is nyxl
6153s Embers going to light this whole damn
6154s tournament on fire they've been lighting
6157s it on fire the whole time and that's the
6159s thing right both of these squads are up
6161s for contention for the Championships the
6163s fact that they're facing off here in the
6164s Swiss stage only one is going to come
6166s out of this with an undefeated record
6168s that is physically impossible for both
6170s of them to remain at no losses from this
6173s point on and granted both of them are
6175s pretty comfortable at least you have to
6177s say when qualifying for the playoffs but
6178s getting a higher seat here CB that's all
6180s that it's about 100% speaking of comfort
6185s yeah this is going to bring up a lot of
6186s things about the meta and Michael waves
6188s composition that they like to play likes
6190s to make the enemy team feel very very
6193s uncomfortable we've got death we've got
6196s Zoe we have Mari who has been uh a bit
6200s of a standout of amongst the tanks in
6202s this uh in this whole tournament because
6204s Mari is leading the charge as far as the
6206s doomfist composition goes that's what
6208s Michael wave has done best we saw them
6210s yesterday besting drainers utilizing
6213s that composition and my pet theory is
6215s that it plays very very well into the
6218s sigma composition something that
6219s Timeless ethereal has been one of the
6221s best at and if it's played well it can
6224s just run right over a sigma composition
6226s which is exactly what apparently
6228s happened off broadcast because that was
6230s a 20 in of Michael wave and if they keep
6233s this momentum up I somebody's going to
6235s have to find a way to either stop this
6237s doomfist composition or match it and
6239s that's the thing right is they've
6240s already taken down one of the top dogs
6243s they're one step away from becoming that
6245s Top Dog themselves the alpha of the pack
6247s and they might as well be at the rate
6248s that they're going this is going to be
6249s one of those few matches that we will
6251s see conflicting compositions at least
6253s from what we've seen previously so now
6255s you're looking at Mari zor death and of
6257s course the supports to synergize
6259s themselves well enough to go against the
6261s well-oiled machine that has been nyxl
6264s wisp Embers I don't want to call you out
6267s but you said you you were talking going
6268s to say Mari Zoey but you said Mari Zari
6270s and I thought that was kind of funny I
6272s I'm I appreciate you found my
6273s misspeaking funny CD this is why we work
6275s great together I look I just like baby
6278s speak it's a great it's like a way to
6279s Jingle keys in front of me like a
6280s toddler it's hilarious but anyway
6283s something not hilarious at all is how
6285s serious nyxl Embers have been in in this
6289s whole tournament thus far we haven't
6290s seen them on broadcast but they have
6292s been undefeated and they're forging a
6294s legacy all their own you know now
6296s associated with nyxl last tournament
6298s most of these pieces that you see here
6300s were part of the Valiant Guardians one
6302s of the one of the top teams in fact the
6303s runner up but they've added a couple of
6306s very very interesting pieces in that
6308s backline I'm looking at anun and poru
6311s specifically anun they said you know
6313s they said to Timeless they're like you
6315s got some OverWatch the league caliber
6316s Talent we want a piece of that let's
6319s pick up one of the best Mar Iz gender
6321s flexx supports to ever touch the game
6324s yeah I mean Anan has proven herself when
6326s she was in OverWatch League 2 and the
6328s fact that she can now come back to
6330s participate in calling all heroes
6331s rounded out with moving 10 who is right
6334s up there with Avery when it comes to
6336s this Sigma I mean that has got to feel
6339s pretty darn good to have this roster
6341s that you're walking in with and you know
6343s as we ready to you get ready to start
6345s off this series that that is going to be
6347s the big question that we post today we
6349s know that mari's going to run the
6350s doomfist we don't doubt that moving fish
6352s though has a little bit more options we
6354s have seen them fear that direction in
6356s the past but the sigma has just been
6358s their comfort zone and it's really going
6360s to come down to are they going to be
6361s forced out of that to play something
6363s that maybe isn't just as well practiced
6366s once upon a time moving fish playing for
6368s red birds Esports was known as the sigma
6370s player that would frequently come out on
6372s circuit Royale like that's kind of what
6373s it was for contenders and even OverWatch
6375s league for a very long time is where you
6377s have this whole team with like two tanks
6380s you'd have your main tank player who's
6381s usually going to play the Winston but
6382s when we go to Circuit Royale you always
6384s want to have a sigma because Sigma that
6386s was just where he lived up until he
6387s became the meta now so you have all
6390s these players like moving fish like
6391s sniper who have Once Upon a Time been
6393s that one trick that are now they are
6395s they are the tip of the spear now in
6397s fact they are the whole damn spear as it
6399s often feels like but you know it's a
6402s great time for a player like moving fish
6403s to show either some flexibility or show
6405s the value in that Sigma pick and I think
6408s they are going to be able to do just
6409s that but it we talked about Comfort
6411s early it's not going to be comfortable
6413s it's not going to be particularly easy
6415s but speaking of comfort I think chat
6417s it's time for you guys all to get
6418s comfortable and what could be more
6420s comfortable than snuggling up with a
6422s nice Chipotle burrito which you can
6424s claim right now because we got 2,000
6426s free Chipotle burritos and Bulls that
6429s you can claim right now by texting the
6431s number on your screen right now go get
6434s yourself a burrito and you're going to
6436s want to get it fast because I don't
6437s think you're going to want to tear your
6438s eyes away from the screen here for this
6440s one oh not at all keep an eye on this
6443s match but also of course get your
6445s burritos nothing better than sitting
6446s back watching some good old OverWatch
6448s and Munch it on a Chipotle burrito the
6450s wild I would know this is one of my
6451s favorite things to do when it comes to
6453s games just like this so hope you guys
6455s can enjoy that te experience and I I
6458s can't say that the players are
6459s necessarily going to enjoy this match
6461s it's going to be sweaty CB and that
6462s might as well be an understatement these
6464s squads they know how important it is to
6466s come out on top and how much influence
6468s that this match is going to have on the
6469s remainder of calling Heroes major 3 and
6473s you know I I I think you know we've had
6474s the map fly over while we're talking
6475s about Chipotle burritos and how how
6477s delicious they are how much we love
6479s Chipotle Burritos which isn't a lie like
6482s real talk like whenever I go to the gym
6484s like I would go and get like a double
6485s meat chicken Chipotle burrito bowl that
6487s was like my go-to post JY meal try and
6489s you know get that protein up let's talk
6491s a little bit about the map now here
6493s we're going to Busan and you know it was
6495s either this Samoa or Antarctic Peninsula
6497s but of the three I think Busan is
6501s downtown and Mecha base are going to
6502s play very very well into the doomfist
6505s composition if that's what Michael wave
6506s is going to stick to yeah I mean this
6509s map in particular it's very interesting
6511s with how it's going to play as you
6513s mentioned downtown great for a doomfist
6515s comp but then you look at other areas
6517s like Mecha base and even Sanctuary that
6520s can go either way and this map is going
6523s to set the PA it's going to set the tone
6525s for this series moving fish yes can be
6527s flexible if they so choose to do but we
6530s know that the Sigma but you know that
6531s the sigma is their comfort and how the
6533s rest of the team likes to play along you
6535s have two Star level squads ready to Duke
6538s it out here and I I genuinely am looking
6541s forward to seeing what they're going to
6543s pull out just because of the options
6545s that they have and understanding the
6547s caliber of the opponent speaking of
6549s flexibility by the way I think we need
6550s to talk a little bit more about Mari who
6552s is again like we said leading the charge
6554s on this doomfist composition she has
6556s been shown to be quite a flexible player
6559s in her own right a very flexible tank
6560s player kind of a someone so to speak in
6563s uh in calling all heroes cuz you know
6564s again in the previous tournament where
6566s there wasn't a whole lot of doomfist
6567s being played there wasn't a whole lot of
6569s variation it was go Sigma or go home
6572s Mari was another one of those top Sigma
6574s players that we kept seeing and in the
6575s past we've even known her to be a very
6577s very strong junker Queen it feels like
6579s every tournament she's coming out here
6581s with a new tank that she is one of if
6584s not the best at this time around it's
6586s the doomfist the answer is can anyone
6588s either shut her down or keep up
6591s yeah I mean it is going to be his Pace
6592s setting Mari is the one that is in
6595s charge of this game and and yxl Embers
6597s if you're running the sigma as the
6599s health pools so tell me right now then
6601s you are going to be need that to shut it
6603s down that doesn't look like Sigma
6604s actually good try good try it had in my
6607s defense there were Shield health in that
6610s I you know CB
6612s CB get down with me here doomfist The
6615s Shield
6617s health I don't I don't know if I agree
6620s well look I saw the I saw the pat not
6622s that they put out with like doomfist new
6623s CH have you seen the change they're
6625s making I about had a panic attack as a
6627s support player when I saw that I was
6629s like no no shot uh anyway you know
6632s speaking of panic attacks hey you know
6635s both of the backlines are about to have
6636s one we're actually going to get a
6638s doomfist mirror here which from nyxl
6640s Embers is a little bit unexpected this
6642s is going to put never mind I was about
6644s to say this is going to put a lot of
6645s pressure on I either Brig but I guess
6647s most of the pressure is currently uh on
6649s Zoe who uh didn't see X10 there with
6652s that Widowmaker having this uh this High
6654s ground and yeah and R Embers with one
6656s shot pretty much just sealed first point
6658s for themselves anytime you see X10 you
6661s know by this point that as soon as X10
6663s picks up the Widowmaker someone's losing
6664s the head and in that scenario it was
6666s Michael wave they're going to roll back
6667s to the point the one thing you don't
6669s have you don't have much point contest
6670s these fights more often than not are
6672s going to be happening on the
6673s outskirts and that's where uh that's
6675s where x10's going to be lurking as well
6677s we'll see if anybody's able to put any
6678s pressure onto that Widowmaker but seem
6680s right now that Michael wave are the ones
6682s who are feeling the most pressure
6683s they're just locked over this movie
6684s theater area but they take down Anu and
6685s that is massive yeah that's and like
6687s that's what you're talking about right
6688s is that you're looking for the support
6689s and if exended moving fish take the
6691s later game here that's all it is Scarlet
6693s and he wall where the fact that PO you
6695s managed to stay alive that is the
6697s biggest thing that n Embers had to work
6699s off of this comp not to dis energize
6701s that was actually a Raaz with thin
6702s margin for nyxl Embers to win that you
6704s know if you have this Doom with the brg
6706s and the Anna as long as the Doom keeps L
6708s of the Anna he theoretically should
6710s could never die taking out anun that
6712s early for Michael wave was huge but
6715s while that was all happening there was
6717s that big degree of separation you had
6718s moving fish and I believe chado also
6720s just sitting in the way where Keith and
6722s Scarlet couldn't really help Mari out
6724s and they ended up getting pressured down
6726s and now Michael wave they're trying to
6728s find a way in Mar's down first of all
6730s the player Theus is the most escapable
6733s you saw how much Focus was put down onto
6736s her and N still EMP they no that's the
6737s win condition as soon as the Tank's out
6739s of the way the L for their backline so
6741s players like chado just Dash slice and
6743s dice going on in does get booed back for
6745s a little while but I mean the Stagger
6747s here from Michael wave is absolutely
6748s brutal they got to change something up
6750s and they do to the good old Winston
6753s OverWatch yeah Winston is uh is making a
6755s comeback here I mean we're seeing a
6757s little bit of uh a little bit of Winston
6758s coming into the Forefront to try and
6760s counteract some of these doomfist
6761s compositions but I think it's very
6762s telling that this early into the match
6764s Michael wave on their signature doomfist
6767s composition already don't feel
6769s comfortable enough playing against nyxl
6771s Embers on the mirror match nyxl Embers
6773s you know they're just keeping Michael
6774s wave at Bay they can't find any sort of
6776s way in with the sights coming out from
6778s X10 Michael wave whatever move they want
6780s to make it's going to be well scouted
6782s they're going to open up with a nano
6783s onto Mari but there's a blade on the
6784s other side oh yeah check your flanks
6787s everybody cuz chado is slicing it down
6790s to Sid regardless of the N that went in
6792s you just leave the supports high and dry
6794s let Mori be distracted by them that's
6796s the rest of the team down and I can't
6797s believe I'm saying this CB but nyxl they
6800s made that look like a
6802s breeze it it didn't even feel like a
6804s fight it didn't even feel like a match
6805s it kind of felt like you know Michael
6807s wave weree asleep at the wheel the whole
6809s time and nyxl Embers they just drove the
6811s bus the whole time they never once felt
6813s like they were not in the driver's seat
6815s there was that one moment where you know
6817s they take they lose anun but they're
6819s able to you know zone out Mari prevent
6821s the supports from getting any sort of
6822s value pretend prevent anything from
6824s happening any followup from that pick
6826s coming out from Michael wave
6828s continuously zoning out Scarlet to the
6830s point where you know they just can't
6832s sustain a doomfist anymore and they've
6833s made the swap over onto the Winston
6836s which it looks like they're going to
6837s stick with as we move on to Sanctuary
6839s here this is kind of worrying already
6841s for Michael
6842s wave Winston's just is in a weird spot
6845s right now the guy might as well be a
6847s balloon because of how much the monkey
6849s just pops right I mean there's so much
6850s pressure out of range sure you can put
6852s pressure onto ex and an on PO you but
6854s look where the frig is right now ex
6856s literally has a shield from a support to
6858s be able to work with
6860s it's going to make it all the harder to
6862s try and keep her in check but there's
6863s not really anybody on the side of
6865s microwave that's going to do just that
6866s death might risk it if they're able to
6868s get themselves that charged rail shot
6869s but even that's not necessarily a
6871s guarantee whereas X10 can just continue
6873s to be a threat continue to Zone people
6875s out the threat of that head shot it's
6877s got to be Zoe getting close and Death on
6879s the flank that death went way out there
6881s nobody really expected to see the
6883s soldier out of that point and that's the
6885s pressure that you need to keep applying
6886s to X10 and M wave they've learned that
6889s they're making the adjustments to their
6890s composition and so far it looked really
6892s good can they get more eliminations for
6894s staggers off of it moving fish the only
6896s one that's really out there but they're
6897s find to get out I mean that was pretty
6900s dangerous for moving fish they're able
6901s to keep the cool Downs alive but being
6902s on the other side of that barrier does
6904s effectively Zone you out from your
6905s supports and death going to go ahead and
6906s Zone X him support from their shoulders
6909s though with a 2K just kept getting away
6911s from this if you saw that stat card at
6913s the beginning of the match 15
6914s eliminations zero death chado is the
6917s Highlight player for this team I'm sorry
6919s I
6921s rip Keith said no no no that's enough of
6923s the Genji in our backline at least
6924s moving fish has got to cover the Revenge
6926s blow coming on in nxl EM are able to
6928s regroup regardless of their Genji or not
6931s looking to get themselves a percentage
6932s here on to Sanctuary but they're still
6935s struggling to deal Death from Above
6937s quite
6938s literally I mean not death not just from
6941s above we're surrounded by death it's a
6943s nice a Dance of Death going on all
6945s around but it is finally nyxl Embers
6947s that keep enough bodies on the point and
6949s Zone enough out from M wave to finally
6951s find the flip at 48% they've got a nano
6953s and a rally this is looking pretty good
6955s if they open with a nano here they might
6957s actually just wait for chado to get that
6959s blade going with an nanoade and force
6961s Michael wave to try and adapt they're
6962s not going to have anything too defensive
6964s of their own actually no they're going
6965s to pop on moving fish and yeah that
6966s works out yeah Ming fish goes in yeah
6968s slam a couple people down into the
6970s ground I'm sorry pancake I like burritos
6972s a little bit better especially if your
6974s Michael waiver right now they do manage
6976s to get just off the back of it his of
6978s course being dive will be a bit gra here
6980s but being down just a small members
6982s looking at the resources that Mich wave
6984s have to work with there's plenty of
6985s reason for them to continue on pushing
6987s up they'll get the capture essentially
6988s for free just by the sheer force of the
6990s rally that's a great play from Scarlet
6992s to pop that rally to keep everybody
6994s alive but also to get that whip shot to
6996s kill chado before they're able to use
6997s the blade and to Zone away moving fish
6999s from the point here the Nano going out
7002s onto zoee but they're not really doing a
7004s whole lot with it our Michael wave it
7005s looks like they're mostly just trying to
7006s zone out great deflect though way just
7010s doesn't get the elimination the healing
7011s is there death should have been death
7014s thems and now that they're okay to go
7016s out of this just has to dash on out and
7018s now the overclock coming into play and
7020s as good as nyxl looked right in that
7022s moment they got to regroup and it's
7024s going to be one final fight and they're
7026s not going to have
7027s X10 I they're they are going to have
7029s that nanoade composition if they're able
7030s to keep themselves alive in the fight
7032s here they're going to go and top the
7033s blade there's no Nano to speak of though
7035s it's entirely naked it's just not can't
7037s do anything with it either you don't
7038s have the damage you don't have the
7039s support so you're getting in and out but
7041s who needs that if your support
7043s themselves are the one getting the
7044s eliminations and Shadle is fine to work
7046s without a blade we've seen them do it
7048s time and time again overtime now X10
7050s back on The High Ground overclock even
7052s being popped May argue the necessity of
7054s that one but you know what you pop two
7056s heads all right move
7057s on yeah it is kind of a desperation
7060s overclock that you need to kind of close
7061s out that fight there but now you're only
7063s going to have the Nano boost to try and
7065s stop the onslaught for Michael wave
7067s they're about to have a they're about to
7068s have a blade of Their Own it's going to
7070s be a naked one it's going to be a nano
7072s versus a dragon blade I mean two ults
7074s that you would like to see on the same
7076s side of the field but they're on
7077s opposing sides who is going to get the
7078s better at this exchange if it's Michael
7080s wave we go to point three yeah Michael
7082s wave right now they do have Bladen oh
7085s but that moving fish Nano boost coming
7087s in once again that's Keith down on noas
7089s are traded out the Sleep coming in and
7091s zo doesn't get anything it's still
7093s relatively it the tanks the only ones
7095s really saying anything at least within
7096s the kill feed right now moving fish
7098s versus Amari the Battle of the decade
7101s and right now it's moving fish coming in
7103s to save the backline as much as they
7106s possibly can but they know that they're
7107s down all of their friends are currently
7109s dead you need to get yourself back on
7110s the objective so as long as you can and
7113s just keep punching Scarlet out into
7115s Oblivion but the problem is there's
7116s nobody to keep a Winston safe nice Boop
7118s to keep him off the back liit the sa is
7120s there the is there the Winston has been
7122s working wers as soon as Mari went ahead
7125s and picked up the good old gorilla and
7127s who needs to dive if you have a Bina
7128s marching into the back time stunned out
7130s of it and just and X10 they're making it
7133s happen Michael wave they got too
7134s aggressive and they're being punished
7136s hard for it seeing they had the
7137s opportunity to close it out but they
7140s flip and Tumble at the final second that
7143s was almost a great play for Michael wave
7145s there the ant went out onto moving fish
7147s and Mari used the Winston bubble to zone
7148s out the exact area that the supports
7150s should have been to try and keep moving
7152s fish alive once that uh anti wore off
7154s but I there wasn't enough followup
7156s damage to get that doomfist taken care
7157s of he's able to sustain moving stays
7160s alive they're able to recollect
7161s themselves get the better of the trades
7163s and Michael waves to try and
7164s overcompensate go super super aggressive
7166s which now they have to if they want to
7168s stay alive at all 99 to
7169s 99 the blade at the last moment chado
7173s you know what you have to expect it from
7175s this player but it's death on the point
7177s even trades out so far but the supports
7179s unavailable for nyxl EMP only an ad soj
7182s to keep them up and if it's x0 it's
7184s always always winable as long as they
7186s are still alive have to make a last
7188s second effort though to get on to that
7190s objective doesn't have any other support
7192s now CB this is the match that we
7194s expected to see yeah this is a lot
7197s closer than downtown this is the point
7199s that you you're looking at and you're
7201s like this is what I expect from the top
7202s two dogs number one and number two in
7204s the Swiss standings right now and it's
7206s going back and forth seemingly based on
7209s which DPS is able to get the better
7210s picks we're constantly calling out X10
7212s or chisato's blades but when you blink
7215s and you miss it death is just taken down
7217s too and suddenly you don't have any you
7219s don't have any legs to stand on anymore
7221s your composition crumbles because death
7223s just crept in knocking on your back
7226s door quite literally in that situation
7228s and Michael wave right now and that's
7231s got to feel good the Winston yes it
7233s worked out but welcome to the Oddball of
7235s all of our maps of boosts on Mecha bit
7238s this is much more close quarters and
7239s you're going to see swamps this is what
7241s I this is what I expected to see we've
7243s got the segma composition coming up for
7245s nyxl Embers and Michael wave riding that
7247s new wave that is the doomfist
7248s composition this is where we're going to
7250s actually get the raw data which
7252s composition is better which team is
7254s better at their signature composition
7255s and death going to a little too long
7258s that's a great May yeah beautiful
7260s beautiful even more from X10 on this
7262s cross angle entirely banking the entire
7265s side of the map I that was a little
7266s overzealous I'm going to give you that
7268s but hey you know what you got two can
7269s you really be too mad at X10 for what
7272s they've accomplished getting the
7273s first yeah I mean yeah you definitely
7275s can't be upset about that one if you're
7277s death you're probably a little bit upset
7278s about not being able to get out alive
7280s there was a lot of follow damage and I
7282s mean it wasn't able to get to the heals
7283s in time and that's just one pick that
7285s ends up sealing the deal that's how this
7287s composition plays out you find a May
7288s wall you get the pick that comes from it
7290s and then you just collapse on top of the
7291s enemy team and it works out wonders for
7294s nyxl Embers but now Michael wave they
7296s want to take the brawl right to nyxl
7298s ember's front door but the May wall
7300s again from chado two players zoned out
7302s in an elimination secured You could
7304s argue that scoret a much more valuable
7306s in elimination now than chado if moving
7309s fish Li Bo fish did not live and yxl ERS
7312s you're gone Michael wave have all the
7314s speed in the world to be able to work
7315s off those and take you down yeah I mean
7318s you will losing a support definitely
7320s sucks but in this kind of composition
7322s losing your tank sucks all the more
7324s because that Sigma a rock that's the
7325s only real crowd control you have to try
7327s and keep the doomfist in check that
7329s accretion and if that's not even a
7330s factor if that's not on the field Mari
7332s can just run rampant across this entire
7334s map does just that gets the clean up and
7337s Michael wave do find the flip and not a
7339s whole lot of ss coming up on the board
7340s except for anun ant Matrix we'll have to
7342s see how they decide to use that but they
7345s might want to take a take a mulligan on
7347s that one maybe wait a little bit longer
7348s Zoe with a nice deflect kill on to chado
7351s nyxl Embers they're not going to be
7352s looking for any way in just yet no
7354s they're going to wait and just just hold
7355s off you have the ant Matrix like you
7357s previously mentioned CB and they're
7359s going to regroup push off towards the
7360s far side more towards the clip of Mecha
7363s base and while this is great I see a
7364s nanoade just like that nade the re
7367s strike and the overclock what there's so
7369s many that can go wrong so manyl ERS but
7372s getting the Dragon Blade through an at
7373s MX all right Rock for breakfast rip Zoe
7376s Michael wave now they still have plenty
7378s of resources to work off of but do they
7380s decide to commit them being down a
7381s player I would and Mari is all here for
7384s it looking for the back te but the stom
7386s the counter play is insane forcing out
7387s the meteor strike but that one uh-oh
7389s it's going to be painful X10 goes down
7391s with Mari knocking them all out there is
7393s no escape with the utter fear of death
7397s so I mean a couple things to break down
7399s there one that early deflect kill onto
7401s chado buys microwave enough time to
7402s build the nanoade uh combo they don't
7405s actually get to use it because chado has
7406s a nice wall to zone out the supports so
7408s they don't actually get losos of Zoe
7410s when she goes to try and pop the blade
7412s that means they get to keep the Nano use
7414s it on Mari and Mari just goes wild with
7417s it now nyxl Embers though they have a
7419s significant ultimate advantage and they
7421s are going to leverage it to try and buy
7422s back some of this space they have to
7424s leverage it this is going to be last
7426s fight as much as you like to conserve
7428s your resources well if if you don't do
7429s it now then game is over you lose the
7432s map both overclocks have been popped
7435s neither coming to too much value in
7437s effect death loses their life in that
7439s course no The Rock The Rock that can
7441s take it out Mari one whip that can turn
7444s the tables potentially of this fight and
7446s Exel ever you better come out of it now
7447s if use the blizzard in general yes you
7449s get the point capture over but it was
7451s not pretty Scarlet used the rally there
7454s though I don't think I like that I mean
7456s it's great that nyxl or sorry it's great
7458s for Michael wave nyxl emers leveraged
7460s nearly their entire old bank but they're
7461s managed to hold on to the gravitic flux
7464s and Michael wave you definitely would
7466s have liked to have a rally to try and
7467s save off whatever pressure nyxl Embers
7470s have you are running out of time as
7471s we're going to start matching up on
7473s these percentages 60% in counting after
7475s this next fight it should be an even
7476s 9999 you need anything that you possibly
7479s can to swing this in your favor and all
7482s you really have is a metor strike you
7484s need so much more yeah it it's got to be
7486s some Stellar play for Mari to set up
7488s either death or Z or a shot maybe a v
7491s thrown in there but it's not going to be
7492s anything too flashy but for NX compl
7495s total opposite at Matrix on the Kei
7498s that's no Anna you don't have the
7499s sustain necessarily pet out plus their
7501s early meteor strike here Michael wave
7503s they have one more chance to
7505s regroup that might that might just be it
7507s Michael wave might have might not have
7509s any way in here there's gravitic flux
7510s Mario is forced to use the gravitic flux
7512s just to stay alive to not keep the
7513s Stagger going further the only hope
7515s Michael wave has if they can stagger
7517s long enough to build up to a dragon
7518s blade oh sorry a nanoblade that has to
7521s be it but the gratic flux is going to
7522s shut that down if moving B has anything
7524s to say about right onto the geni as well
7526s zo keep both the nanoblade elements are
7529s out of the equation and yxl Embers they
7531s knew what was coming they read the
7534s Playbook and they had it back in control
7536s of the objective death one of the last
7538s people still alive everyone else low in
7541s health right now and it's Don Mich wave
7543s they made a valiant effort but in the
7545s end the fire continues to burn as nyxl
7548s take map one
7549s I mean Mari was trying to find the flip
7551s on the point there I think she could
7553s have tried to go for a punch to stun
7554s moving fish out of that gravitic flux it
7556s caught it caught the Dragon Blade gave
7559s no value out of it Keith died before
7561s they were able to build up to the Nano
7562s so they couldn't even save the Genji and
7564s use the Nano boost def defensively there
7567s so it just kind of all goes wrong for
7569s Michael wave they had to spin too many
7571s plates try and flip the point and keep
7573s overtime alive try and keep themselves
7575s alive so they had any hope of trying to
7577s turn the fight in their favor it just
7579s wasn't in the cards there was just too
7580s much thrown at them at one point in time
7582s and it goes back that fight there where
7584s Keith dies and Mari had the meteor
7586s strike forced out she definitely would
7588s have liked to hold on to that and even
7590s the fight before that where Scarlet used
7592s the rally and I really don't know if she
7594s needed to there I didn't see what forced
7596s that or what caused that but any of
7597s those ultimates would have given them
7599s some ability to if nothing else keep
7601s that Dragon Blade alive and give them
7603s some sort of stopping power that could
7605s have helped them punch through yeah I
7607s mean it really does come back those
7609s minuscule things like you mentioned CB
7611s some of this smaller ultimate usage we
7613s don't doubt these guys ability to play
7615s as a team they're so good at synergizing
7618s regardless if it's doomfist Winston
7620s whatever the heck you may be doing they
7622s understand where each other will be
7624s positioned and how to play off that but
7626s once you actually get there it's the
7628s matter of the execution ultimate
7630s management has been better whsp Embers
7633s for the most part they've been doing it
7635s particularly on Mecha base and it came
7636s back to bite them in the butt later
7639s Mari and scet both had opportunity in
7642s that previous map but you can
7644s acknowledge it comes down to those two
7645s instances other than that see were there
7647s really other any flaring red flags red
7650s flaring red flags under that initial map
7652s of
7653s downtown I mean they're definitely going
7655s to be kicking themselves for giving up
7656s downtown so quietly over to nyxl Embers
7659s I think I I think if Michael wave had
7660s put up more of a fight on that one
7662s potentially even managed to win out that
7664s point they wouldn't be feeling quite so
7666s like you know they were this close to
7667s taking it like you had to do a little
7669s bit more on that map you know you can't
7671s give that one up so easily and have the
7673s other two be so so narrow so razor thin
7676s on the margins where you come out ahead
7678s on Sanctuary but can't quite do it
7680s because of a couple of those those
7682s errors that were that were forced on
7684s mechab base you put yourself in a
7685s position where those few errors are what
7687s ends up costing you the entire map but
7689s realistically they didn't even need to
7691s be there if they had just played better
7693s on downtown and that's the hard part you
7695s as much as we would like to say downtown
7697s didn't happen if you were with my W I
7699s would like to say that but uh yeah guess
7701s what it did happen y'all got swept 100
7703s to zero not even close we saw maybe two
7706s full flights out of that whole time
7707s otherwise it was just moving fish and
7709s the Embers pushing them back into the
7711s spawns it wasn't close and honestly I
7713s expect that game to end in sanctuary the
7715s fact that Michael wave made it as close
7717s as it did makes you think all right
7718s we're going to write that off as more of
7720s a warm-up map getting used to what nyxl
7722s Embers are doing so you can bring that
7724s in to Kings Row and Kings Row like we
7728s mentioned very prominent Sigma matchup
7730s but we did see that flexibility coming
7732s out from moving fish and from nyxl
7734s Embers and that might be why they are
7737s you know among the top dogs right now
7738s maybe the doomfist composition is really
7740s really really strong but nyxl Embers
7742s they can play that one too we could see
7744s the dive bra or the dive mirror again on
7746s Kings ra we might see nyxl Embers fall
7749s back onto Old Reliable that Sigma rush I
7752s feel like we're definitely going to keep
7754s seeing dive coming out of Michael wave
7756s that's what they've practiced that's
7758s what I feel that their best at I've also
7759s you know done a little bit of sleuthing
7761s been a bit of an underground detective
7763s there looking uh through all the scrim
7764s vods all the scrim codes I could you
7766s know I've seen some other looks coming
7768s out from Michael wave but nothing has
7770s stuck to the degree that the doomfist
7772s composition has and you know you have to
7774s be able to get the better of the enemy
7776s team with that and like that that's what
7778s you're playing for is having that speed
7781s that Mobility to just disrupt them with
7783s the doomfist and when you're seeing one
7786s team have a little bit more of that con
7788s connection that communication between
7790s one another then well that that's
7792s essentially how it goes you can be the
7794s most mechanically talented doomfist
7796s player in the world but if you do not
7797s have a team to back you up in those
7799s situations then that's what's going to
7801s be a bit of a problem and that that's
7802s kind of what we saw back on Busan right
7804s is that whenever moving fish went in
7806s chado was right behind them bringing
7809s extra all that damage with the shurikens
7811s and if you're going to have that here
7813s things yes they can change a little bit
7815s more but is that even really going to be
7817s a problem when we saw the sigma look and
7820s you know it turned out just fine for the
7821s Embers one of the things that I was like
7823s trying to allude to before I was rudely
7825s interrupted by an X10 decapitation was
7828s uh in a in a doomfist composition mirror
7830s it's going to put a lot of pressure onto
7832s the Bita specifically to hit the whip
7834s shots and deny the doomfist from getting
7836s successful slams because any of those
7838s big slams gives the Genji an opportunity
7840s to go in with a dash follow up with some
7841s big damage or gives the opportunity from
7843s a sojourn at an off angle to even get a
7845s kill with a body shot if they're in a
7847s position to do so you have to try and
7849s hit those whip shots and deny that while
7852s simultaneously keeping losos of your
7854s doomfist so that you can keep him alive
7856s in the fight if for any reason your Anna
7859s can't see your doomfist he is as good as
7861s dead or your Anna might be as good as
7863s dead the the back lines have to be
7866s perfect they have to play very
7867s defensively and simultaneously be be
7870s good enough be in the right position to
7872s keep up the aggression from your own
7874s side that's a lot to ask a support
7876s player to do that's a lot of
7878s responsibility
7879s that's on Scarlet shoulders that's on
7880s poru shoulders as the respective Bri
7882s players on either side mhm and that's
7884s where I think Michael wave might start
7887s to struggle a little bit because they
7888s have a phenomenal backline Keith and
7889s Scarlet are you know very storied
7892s players very strong players indeed but
7895s they haven't really played against a lot
7897s of other teams that can match them in
7899s the doomfist dive they might not be
7900s prepared to deal with that kind of
7902s pressure cuz against the sigma comp you
7904s really don't have to no right was you're
7907s not you're not looking for those mobile
7909s targets the sigma they're they're right
7910s in front of you you don't need to do
7912s anything too crazy versus if you're
7914s playing into this doomfist then you
7916s yourselves have to be more concerned and
7919s you against the sigma like all you have
7920s to worry about is like a sojourn like
7922s finding an off angle and like taking
7923s your head off like that's that's your
7925s biggest fear in the world but now you
7926s have to worry about that and a Genji and
7928s a doomfist and all of the chaos that
7931s they're going to sew yeah and like now
7932s that you're trying to switch things up a
7934s little bit more than what really is
7937s going to be the question moving fish
7938s found Keith and Scarlet more often than
7940s we can say the same for Mari and with
7943s the respective supports of the nyxl ERS
7945s how are they going to approaches
7947s understanding that their supports are
7948s going to be vulnerable I like that
7949s they're playing it slow allowing them to
7950s rotate on up to The High Ground the
7952s problem with that is no one else is
7954s going to be able to support them if they
7956s start to take that Journey you just saw
7957s moving fishal flying on up towards the
7959s top adding that additional pressure onto
7961s them but it's really going to be waiting
7963s for that perfect moment for these teams
7964s to strike and in this scenario de
7966s hanging on to a sliver of HP alive
7968s somehow can't see the same for Mari so
7972s what Mari wants to do and the reason why
7973s Michael wave are playing this hello
7976s actually I think we should probably go
7977s back because Zoe has a few more things
7978s to say we're not done with this just yet
7981s all right no tank needed Zoe goes in
7983s does it nice and dry with that Dragon
7985s well not Dragon Blade the shurikens
7987s doesn't need a dragon blade Genji flashy
7989s on her own and know ERS they're not
7992s ready for that Michael wave regrouped
7994s perfectly fine without their tank and
7995s they plenty of point presss to work off
7997s those all right so anyway what I was
7999s trying to say never mind nyxl Embers
8001s they still want to try and come back in
8002s here they actually yeah they're going to
8004s have to punch out there Michael wave
8006s they're going to get the cap there so
8008s it's also going to be a bit of stagger
8009s going out here for Michael wave they
8011s keep finding more bodies they're going
8012s to take more space and get through that
8014s choke that's bad that's bad those spawns
8016s are so far away right now
8020s CB very very far okay now if I can
8023s finally break down Michael wave's
8024s composition so like I said if the
8027s doomfist loses l of their supports he's
8029s as good as dead right you leverage the
8031s bubble from the Winston to do just that
8033s with one fewer cools you don't have to
8035s disrupt them you don't have to annoy
8036s them you just put a bubble between them
8038s and the guy they're trying to keep alive
8040s and that doesn't necessarily work out so
8042s Zoe just goes in and you know clocks in
8045s Works overtime gets a couple of those
8046s easy kills there that's a great pick off
8048s onto Anu and Michael wave they can keep
8050s this momentum going and they have a
8051s nanoade def live and well you don't have
8055s it so you you need to be holding at SK
8058s ke and going backwards no thought out of
8059s your mind but Tado didn't do that and
8062s guess what you're down to nothing these
8063s stagers are absolutely terrible for the
8066s emers this payload is moving it's
8067s chugging along and getting quite close
8069s to this point and no one in the game has
8071s hit Q yet this much progress for Michael
8073s wave has been entirely dry it's about to
8075s get quite moist though as nearly every
8077s Ultimate ability in the game is behind
8079s jado's a little bit behind on that uh
8082s you know on that Dragon Blade but
8083s everyone else has theirs up or nearly up
8086s but it's going to be Michael Wade taking
8087s the initiative going first and that is
8089s the best thing you can ask for Onan
8090s regardless the rally or not that's a lot
8092s of damage that you're dealing with the
8094s pita zoning off Zoe at least for now but
8097s there was no supports for nyxl ERS that
8099s retire time even if they're alive this
8101s point rolls on through we're looking at
8102s over a 5 minute time bank CV Michael
8106s wave they're grinding that wave from
8108s their previous game even if they managed
8109s to lose it they understand how to
8111s councel out nyxl yeah and the wave just
8114s keeps on rolling on in nyxl Embers they
8117s have a dragon blade but and you pop the
8119s Nano I think on support you just to try
8121s and stay alive in the previous fight so
8122s they no longer have that that
8124s combination you know Scarlet can pop her
8126s own uh can pop her own rally and just
8129s sustain throughout it if jado pops this
8131s blade it's seriously that's what you
8133s need right I mean just doesn't have the
8135s support behind them to be able to do
8137s anything with this Dragon Blade and
8139s you're not even going to use it before
8140s Zoe gets three including to Zoe she's
8144s been insane this entire map log I don't
8146s know what's gotten into her but 5K is
8149s what Michael wave need to do we're not
8151s talking about a wave we're talking about
8152s a tsunami CB chado pops the Dragon Blade
8156s and then Zoe gets a 5k without a dragon
8159s blade if that's not a Genji Gap I don't
8161s know what is Zoe has this entire Point
8164s not done head and she is not done X10
8167s pops the overclock but he's going to get
8168s popped herself with a primal range for
8170s Mari this is bad I mean I'd like
8172s Emperors they have one more chance to
8173s get their feet back under him but the
8175s ground is crumbling they're falling
8177s through the gaps as Amari tickles them
8179s all back down Zoe went wild Michael wave
8183s are getting a full completion with
8185s 349 on the clock this is an insane
8189s turnaround from our previous game
8191s they're here to play I'm starting to get
8193s Echoes of our Fable game from before the
8195s first round you know felt a little bit
8197s one-sided but then suddenly it's like oh
8200s oh no it's not nearly it was you know
8203s our our our control for this one was a
8205s little bit closer but this is quite
8207s surprising uring from Michael wave you
8209s know like we even said that I couldn't
8211s even get out like the win condition for
8213s the Winston composition cuz Mari was
8215s dead before they were able to ever
8216s actually execute it but you don't need
8218s to execute your plan when you have an
8220s executioner for a DPS Zoe just going in
8223s with the shurikens most of the time did
8225s not even need the blade the one time we
8227s actually saw the nanoade comes out of
8229s course she finds the most valuable
8231s Target the Anna with the Nano shuts down
8233s the potential of a a nanoade coming out
8235s from the other side with that one
8236s pickoff alone forces to either lose it
8239s entirely or use it defensively which is
8241s not the situation that you as an Anna
8242s want to be faced with especially going
8245s up against an enemy dive composition
8246s with a Genji of their own and there's no
8249s other way to like we can't stress this
8250s enough Zoe doesn't need a dragon blade
8253s she just needs to hurt you are you
8255s seeing that stat are you seeing those
8257s stats right now CB zero deaths zero
8259s deaths 11 final blow Zoe needs to be
8263s stopped if nyxl emers want to have a
8265s chance at coming back in this Zoe needs
8267s to to be
8269s stopped yeah and uh it looks like X10
8271s going to swap over to the ash that might
8273s be how they decide to pressure Zoe out
8275s maybe just try and hit some dynamites
8277s for sort to think twice before dashing
8278s in cuz you know health bar is going to
8280s be ticking a little bit lower than is
8282s ideal but I mean that's still a very
8284s vulnerable Target for Zoe if she decides
8285s to take that duel it's up to nyxl Embers
8287s to not let her do that don't let her
8290s have access to your Ash because that's
8292s where all your poke is coming from yeah
8293s but they're moving on up that's a bate
8295s out onto chado who the back out during
8298s that time so EMP you're put it in a very
8300s narrow Corridor which with both a Bita
8303s and the doomfist up there you got to be
8305s cautious right I I I think that was like
8308s a bait I think they had Scarlet up there
8309s specifically to try and bait them into
8311s that narrow Corridor so they could hit a
8312s big nade there and it does kind of pay
8313s off they don't find any kills for it but
8315s they are able to repel the push for now
8317s but X10 has finally struck gold took a
8320s page out of Maple's book from our
8322s previous game and X10 on the ash huge
8325s amounts of damage that you're able to
8327s output for here and just that the
8329s dynamite hitting those plain old shots
8332s that's enough for nyxl emers to
8333s eventually break through this Rock Solid
8336s wall that's been M wave you know in a
8339s lot of the scrims that I've been seeing
8340s I've been seeing like little glimmers of
8341s Ash poking her head out every now and
8343s then and I'm like wondering what value
8345s it's it's bringing like why you don't
8347s just run the sojurn and I think I'm
8348s starting to get it I think it is those
8350s big dynamites the ability to just coach
8351s gun away and the constant pick potential
8354s that one shot potential where you can
8356s just get someone down to crit HP with a
8357s single head shot and suddenly you know
8359s they either perish before your very eyes
8361s or they're forced to try and play a lot
8362s safer whereas soj like yeah you get the
8365s sustain damage but it's only when she
8367s has the rail shot that she has that same
8369s potential as the ash so it's proving to
8371s be a great alternative if you're losing
8373s out in the so 1 V one or indeed if you
8375s need to try and keep a Genji in check
8377s especially since death doesn't have like
8379s these big chunky targets to farm up
8381s these rail shots on either you're not
8382s getting them frequently where you
8384s essentially you're just every single one
8386s for X10 right now and you'll see that
8388s difference in at least the old charge
8389s right now nyxl Embers they got tons of
8391s things to work with so many options to
8393s pull out but if Zoe is still on a run
8397s that's one less option on the table yeah
8399s one less chado on the table more like
8401s yeah she's been uh she's been taken out
8403s and that's again just showing the Genji
8405s Gap right now Zoe is firmly in control
8408s of this head-to-head I do also kind of
8409s want to point out though that X10 has
8411s built up to the Bob and the Bob actually
8413s can be a pretty solid answer to a dragon
8415s blade they're going to go and pop the
8417s Bob early though Zoe doesn't have to use
8419s the going to go into the back line yeah
8421s you you go back there right I mean if
8423s moving fish is so focus on the front
8424s line you're drawing their attention away
8427s from using that nle so they don't get
8428s the same value in those few stackers The
8430s Flicks that they've managed to get yes
8432s they're enough but just has absolutely
8434s assaulted the backline of Michael wave
8437s both teams have given up on trying to
8438s save them it's just a Chase who can find
8440s a more successful hunt I saw Zoe go deep
8443s and get punished for it I don't know why
8445s Scarlet was that far back there she
8446s found a whip shot kill on to an un and I
8448s was like how the hell is the Bita in
8450s position to get a whip shot onto the
8451s enemy Anna and then it's like oh wait no
8454s she's like in the enemy spawn too I
8455s don't know what that was all about it's
8457s a you know typical wick weekend things
8460s Michael wave though they have a ton of
8461s ults but they don't have that
8464s Nano you don't have that tool but you
8466s know who does have a good old CH not
8468s pulling out the blade now pulling it out
8470s there it is f Zoey AC on up finally
8473s shutting down the Genji star has had
8475s enough of getting the diff wants to make
8476s a name for them here as well nearly find
8480s enough with it but it buys plenty of
8481s space mov fish to pushing on forward but
8484s death has to make it happen with the
8486s overclock not the result that she wanted
8489s at all everyone can just back off the
8490s position friendy ex ver is
8492s Stellar use the rally and the overclock
8495s there for Michael waven they're still
8496s going to get staggered mari's going to
8498s have to go into try and touch but if
8500s she's not able to find a kill or Zone
8502s everybody else back I mean they lose
8503s death this is a terrible fight for
8505s Michael wave it's done I don't know why
8507s they tried to take this fight you down
8509s so many I maybe you could potentially
8511s for resources out of the ESS but what
8513s resources do they even have that was the
8515s rally on the blade that we used not too
8517s long ago and you have a full task
8521s this yeah it's it's it's getting pretty
8523s disorganized pretty sloppy here from
8525s Michael wave I don't like those ult
8526s Investments and I don't like the way
8528s that they are forced to try and stagger
8529s to keep anything alive cuz you know at
8531s the tail end there it's just Mari and
8533s the supports and if they just Zone off
8534s the supports Mari she can't get anything
8536s done and they can just
8539s Zoe zo not going to be a to find any
8541s good FL angles to L any any good to
8545s harass backline X10 has The High Ground
8549s and is pumping out death onto death 10
8551s out of 10 on that shot my goodness X10
8555s this is beautiful I mean you even are
8556s forcing death to swap over to the Ash
8558s and even better dive Target You could
8560s argue for somebody like moving who
8562s likely is going to be getting a Nal
8563s boost in the near future for now it will
8566s be Mari with that tool clearing off the
8568s ey but he doesn't really have the cool
8570s Downs to continue engaging he's all just
8571s buying time hoping for a regroup and why
8575s they just played that's a huge anti
8576s though they need to follow up on that
8577s but the Sleep Dart means Mari can't she
8579s has to pop the meteor strike to try and
8580s stay alive she just got to get out with
8582s that one and oh that is worst case
8584s that's both the Nal boost and the meteor
8586s strike G for Michael wave and it's what
8588s maybe 10 seconds that you ended up
8590s saving from it and my ERS they got all
8592s the gas in the tank to pump it out and
8594s moving fish woohoo we know that they can
8597s dish out that damage trait even thus far
8600s nobody really in the way of the doist
8602s every he just kind of looked around and
8604s was looking for somebody to poke their
8605s head out but nobody did understanding
8606s how much of a threat that they can be
8608s and it allows Michael wave to engage on
8610s the backline I I think while while
8613s moving fish went with that Nano Mari was
8615s in the enemy backline took out both Anon
8616s and puu and everybody else was trying to
8618s deal with Mari so there just wasn't
8620s enough follow up for moving fish to find
8621s any purchase with that Nano boost so now
8623s that's off the field Michael wave have
8625s their heels dug into the dirt and
8627s they're starting to build up to an old
8628s bank that they can use to leverage this
8629s to lead off more time make sure they
8632s have the better time bank if we go into
8634s OT you have to at least try to get
8637s yourself on the board right and yxl
8639s Embers at this point if you can complet
8640s have great but bomb I love hey you know
8643s what we're back to a 5v5 that makes me
8645s very happy good old robot Butler Bob dip
8648s but chado said Genji dip on to Zoe
8651s that's actually a deflection kill for
8653s the nyxl Amber that is an elimination
8655s you will move up on top of now dragon
8657s into play no n no n needed death is
8661s going down Scarlet matching to stay
8663s alive wly bionade from Kei to actually
8665s shut down chados nyxl emper this was
8668s their fight but it may not be anymore
8671s they have to give up some space to try
8672s and deal with that Dragon Blade but
8673s because they're able to dispatch chado
8675s there they're able to try and take it
8676s right back with the spawn Advantage so
8678s again they can't get around this corner
8680s they take down Zoe but the Nano comes
8682s out on to
8683s Mari more as the Nano to stay alive it
8685s means you have to meteor strike out
8687s almost immediately after that all the
8690s xent get the better of again once more
8692s so nyxl 're moving up with a punch oh
8695s Mari absolutely beautiful pull out it
8698s keeps Michael wave in the fights they've
8699s been hanging on by a thread this entire
8702s time for the entire 4 and a half minutes
8703s we've been here and you know even when
8706s X10 is finding head shot it's almost
8707s always traded out and the longer Michael
8709s wave keeps that up the more time they're
8712s going to bleed off the clock for nyxl
8713s Embers it needs to be a decisive fight
8715s and they haven't been able to find that
8717s and they keep investing ultimates to try
8719s and find it and not getting it here
8720s comes the dragon blade from Zoe and
8722s there's nothing that can possibly stop
8723s it no there's not except for this oh the
8726s Boost the Bo on back but you walk into
8728s the dragon pleas pleas don't walk into
8729s Dragon blades not advised at least it's
8731s a Genji for Genji trade sure but you're
8733s now looking on the possibility of you're
8735s not finishing this with slim on the clck
8737s so right now for nyxl emers it's Lose or
8740s Draw whether they lose here or
8741s potentially draw later that is all that
8744s they can do that's all the power that
8745s they have left in the choice of this
8747s series whereas Michael wave they have so
8749s much left to say now over onto the
8752s Winston can they get the payload
8754s absolutely fish manages to stay alive
8756s Mor can KN bobbert coming back in X10
8759s says Bob dip at least to the tank but
8762s also to the Genji it's not going to be
8764s contested death can throw the Bob onto
8766s the point yes that's going to help
8767s contest but moving fish has plenty of
8770s Health to be able to work with no one
8771s can get a touch NYX ERS they're going to
8774s squeak away with it but it's not the
8775s result they wanted
8777s so we are going to a map three no matter
8780s what happens here we're either getting a
8782s draw or we're getting Michael wave going
8785s up or sorry matching it at one to one
8788s and you know looking at the time bank I
8790s think that's the more likely opportunity
8792s here I I think that's more likely
8794s situation because realistically all it
8795s takes is for death or for Zoe to find
8798s one of those opening picks and The
8799s Dominoes for nyxl Embers are going to
8802s crumble it feels like when nyxl Embers
8805s are able to play their game when they're
8806s able to get those ultimate compositions
8808s off uh those ultimate combinations off
8810s sorry and able to play their composition
8812s to its fullest potential you know
8814s they're firmly in the driver seat but as
8815s soon as the trades start to come out and
8817s it starts to go a little bit back and
8818s forth Michael wave despite even making
8820s some ultimate mistakes are still able to
8823s get the better of it find at least
8824s enough trade at least enough values to
8826s our nyxl Embers they can't push their
8828s advantage anymore they can't keep their
8830s pedal on the gas they have to pump the
8831s brakes a little bit regroup and slow
8834s down and in that time but WS back to
8837s full strength and we're just right back
8839s where we started mhm and that's that's
8841s what we're seeing is that NYX Embers
8843s they they love to go forward they have
8845s their foot down on the gas the entire
8847s time but if you don't back off you don't
8850s know when you're going too far and that
8852s happened so many times that they were
8853s punished for and now you literally have
8855s one opportunity to stop them one tick
8858s all microwave needs Sim TP going out
8861s from Zoe looks like she's going to swap
8863s over onto the Genji this gets some
8864s support over safely through the choke
8866s and up onto this High ground but you got
8868s to imagine there's going to be either a
8869s slam or a dash waiting for them once
8872s they are called out here the bait the
8874s bait of all time Keith positioning
8877s themselves like hey come get me guys I
8879s dare you to come on over Scarlet being a
8881s nice bodyguard at least for the A and
8884s Myers they're not going to engage look
8885s how defensive they're playing they're
8887s afraid of being punished just like they
8889s did on their own attack and that's what
8891s you got to do if they rely on X10 to hit
8893s the shots and when are consistently
8895s getting the better of death all right
8896s that good condition to make off of if
8899s you can manage to keep them alive the
8901s health bars are struggling but even more
8903s in the side of Michael wave anun Falls
8906s that is disaster for nyxl EMB remember
8908s it's only one tick for Michael wave and
8910s they're going to get their their
8910s supports back online in no time there's
8913s no Lucio taxi anun back you only have
8915s Brig heals look at how far back nyxl
8918s Embers have to play they can't send
8920s moving fish in without an Anna there to
8922s heal them up so they're going to have to
8923s try and rely on just the pressure from
8926s X10 on high and until anun gets back it
8927s looks like she's coming through the
8928s archway now but Michael wave are already
8931s kicking the fight off even then onan's
8932s not in a good position she can easily be
8934s Dove out on just like X10 on The High
8937s Ground that's the followup the CL Gat
8939s they've been opened all Michael wave
8941s need to do is to crash down onto nyxl
8944s Embers knowing that they're not afraid
8946s the looming threat on the flank Keith is
8948s in an Untouchable position ends up
8950s dropping down cuz it's okay they know
8952s that they've won today supports are gone
8954s the fire has fizzled out out Michael
8957s wave they're claiming King's Rose CB we
8960s are all tied up on that first approach
8964s there where I said that you know the
8965s supports are going up on The High Ground
8967s there should be either a slam or a dash
8968s or something waiting for them no that's
8970s a very dangerous proposition for Michael
8973s way or sorry for nyxl em to just give
8975s that up for free give that level of
8977s positioning they rely entirely on X10 to
8979s hit Ed shot on the Ash and yeah sure as
8982s long as they're able to keep that up
8983s that's all well and good but the second
8985s something goes wrong they don't have the
8987s space to try and correct and losing anun
8989s is about the worst possible thing that
8991s can happen in that situation like I said
8993s you lose losos of the Anna as the
8995s doomfist or indeed you lose the Anna
8997s herself you're as good as dead and
8999s moving fish knows it they can't go in
9001s they can't retake that space by the time
9003s they are you know regrouped and able to
9005s try and go back in Michael wave has
9007s already taken the fight onto the point
9009s and it's Do or Die time for nyxl Embers
9012s it's too chaotic you can't bounce back
9013s from that you need a miracle play from
9015s X10 or a miracle play from anun and
9017s there's even that moment right where
9019s Mari gets the Nano boost she jumps in
9021s puts down the bubble right in that
9022s Archway suddenly anun once again even
9024s though she's back doesn't have Los over
9027s anybody that is fighting on the point to
9029s try and keep it alive and at that point
9031s it's it's as good as done it's as good
9032s as done Michael wave they understand the
9034s win condition on this composition and
9036s they execute it to Perfection by
9038s executing the
9040s backline that's that was serious right
9044s over to the even if it was the
9047s partially they made this Bo right you
9049s move over to the W you can deny those S
9051s you have more consistent sides a little
9053s bit more Point presence and support your
9055s overall team and by taking away those
9057s resources of your and it looks so darn
9060s good all the way through nyxl empor they
9063s didn't look like the same dominant Squad
9065s that we saw back on Mega base this was
9067s definitely more of a fumble from them
9069s and now that this is all tied up that
9071s title of being that undefeated team
9074s within our current swis stage it is
9075s completely up to grab and this could go
9078s either way and both teams like we said
9081s were undefeated coming into this but
9082s only one of these teams can come out of
9084s it still being undefeated and you know
9087s if you're one of the top dogs you know
9089s speaking of dogs shout out to Michael
9090s wave and their adorable polite profile
9092s picture there love that if you still
9094s want to be Top Dog there's no other like
9096s you got to fight for it and being one
9098s one taking us into flasho that's the
9100s only way that you can go down right you
9102s got to make sure that even if you lose
9104s this one you're staking your claim as
9105s one of the top teams and you know with
9107s the with the demise of Timeless ethereal
9109s and potentially their rebuild going
9111s forward this is where one of these teams
9114s gets to claim that top spot it's going
9116s to be nyxl ember's pick they get the
9118s benefit because they won control is
9121s really only two options anyway but
9122s they're gonna go ahead and take us to
9124s surasa okay and what this kind of says
9127s when you when you look at these these
9128s flash points right there aren't too many
9130s differences when you really want to talk
9132s about them I guess you could say it's a
9134s little bit more Close Quarters it's a
9135s little bit more you don't have to worry
9137s about the high grounds nearly as much
9139s and I think that's the biggest thing
9140s right is that you're setting yourselves
9141s up so you're playing for the most part
9143s on an even level so you're not having to
9146s worry about oh we got to jump up onto
9148s these like ceilings these walkways no
9150s not at all I me most of the points
9151s they're relatively flat just the
9153s approach is the most challenging part
9156s that you are going to see here on Sasa
9159s which really kind of starts to tell us
9160s here that they're going to want to stick
9162s with this doomfist something I noticed
9164s in my scrim VOD reviews by the way did
9166s you know know that that Fountain when
9167s you cap that point the fountain like
9169s erupts like that top part of the
9171s fountain starts to spout water too at
9173s least I think I mean I might be
9174s misremembering that I hope that happens
9176s if not they should definitely add that
9177s cuz I think that's a really cool touch
9179s uh regardless though there is also
9181s something else I want to highlight about
9182s surasa there's a couple of points here
9184s towards the northern edge of this map
9185s where there is a potential of
9187s environmental uh kills where some of the
9190s lucios can start to shine if they do
9191s decide to bust out Lucio Lucio Centric
9194s compositions or where whip shots could
9196s come into play in fact I think the
9197s gardens uh point is it also does have
9200s that same potential that said though you
9203s know that's only a small thing that may
9204s or may not come into play we'll have to
9207s see it's looking like both these teams
9208s are hovering over that doomfist
9210s composition though so yeah lots of
9212s environmental potential coming out for
9214s both sides yep punches and boots are
9217s going to go flying hope everyone can
9219s swim today otherwise uh yeah you're
9221s going to be meeting a nice watery death
9223s and you know we're going to get ready to
9225s rock out here Market of course always
9227s the same on every map but what we do
9231s need to look at is I'm seeing something
9233s a little interesting within the the DPS
9236s lines depending on who ends up swapping
9237s all right complete and total mirrors
9239s even even playing Ground even playing
9241s Ground CB this is the miror looks like
9244s moving fish is actually going to be able
9245s to get to the point first though so be
9247s on the lookout for them to find the
9248s first slam but it's actually going to be
9250s Mari using the slam to try and take The
9252s High Ground here and nyxl Embers they're
9255s kind of playing a little bit
9257s yeah they're biting their time and
9259s ideally they can do that they're
9261s confident in what X10 can do on the so
9264s even if it rail shot doesn't confirm an
9266s elimination it does enough damage to
9268s give the moving fish the opportunity to
9270s move in and confirm that elimination so
9273s Michael wave they're the ones that are
9274s playing a little bit more aggressive
9275s poke oriented especially Scarlet who you
9278s just saw off over on the flank who is
9280s trying to get rail shots in onto The
9282s High Ground And the hard part with this
9283s is that because NY EMP they've waited so
9285s long they build up these ultimates but
9288s because there's no strict engages they
9290s don't have many options to work with and
9293s so a bod like that comes in on on an X10
9296s hit on up but they can't live they
9298s actually everyone's still alive the fact
9300s that we are so far into this point CB
9302s there's no elimination blows me away and
9304s finally it will be the death strike
9307s first both doomfists are they're kind of
9310s stuck in this eternal Loop where they're
9312s like I know I have to be aggressive but
9314s I also have to wait for the right
9315s opportunity to present it cuz I can't
9317s just go in and be Reckless end up
9318s feeding and dying so you see both of
9320s them like going for a slam getting hit
9322s with like a bionade or something and
9324s just punching themselves right back out
9325s they don't stay for too too long it is
9327s that bionade from Keith and then the
9329s followup one from anun on the other side
9331s that does end up kind of changing the
9333s tide and through it all nyxl Embers they
9336s give up just a little bit too much
9337s ground Michael wave marched a little bit
9338s too far forward for nyxl Embers to clap
9341s back and now it's Michael wave finally
9343s in the driver's seat and already nearly
9345s about halfway to that
9347s first like they have all the support
9349s ultimates to work with most notably this
9351s rally anytime it's been it helps their
9354s team move towards a victory you have the
9356s Nan boost to sleep though on zo beer
9358s coming crashing down that is the worst
9360s spot what wait she lives she lives no
9363s freaking shot she this are going to be
9366s complaining about that one on Twitter I
9368s I can already it I can hear it oh boy
9372s that hurts that really hurts right now
9374s Zoe is still alive and she's just so
9376s good and it gets exent off the back of
9378s it well if only she went down too bad
9380s for you and lxl ERS Michael wave are
9383s cleaning up Market they used all of
9385s their resources to do so and got them a
9388s big momentum boost yeah you're a little
9391s Huff of copium if your nyxl Embers is
9393s that you did hold on to both of your DPS
9394s ultimates but you don't have a nano to
9396s pair with either of them you don't have
9397s the meteor strike from moving fish to be
9399s able to you know play as aggressively as
9401s they want to to try and find some space
9403s for the overclock or for the Dragon
9405s Blade without the aid of the Nano to
9406s find the value that they need to find
9408s here so you know Michael wave they're
9410s going to take an early positional
9412s Advantage here try and play this slow
9413s and build up to something but nyxl
9415s Embers they got to find an optimal way
9417s to press what little Advantage they
9419s currently have what really is that going
9422s to be you want to get X10 at the spot
9424s The High Ground or just out on moving
9425s fish in the back line you go ahead take
9427s that two options of death you choose the
9429s one of X1 now Michael wave though
9432s they've used all of their resources and
9434s that's going to come back to fight them
9435s badly here
9438s and nyxl Embers they invest only the
9441s overclock they hit a great sleep Dart
9443s there on tamari follow that up with some
9445s of the damage from the overclock and an
9446s anate to confirm that kill and now have
9449s a look at Anna yun's old percentage
9450s she's up to 91% this is going to get
9453s closer and closer to where they're going
9454s to have that nanoade available and
9456s that's a one fight on its own if it's
9458s executed properly and you know Michael
9460s wave what do you do to deny it you could
9462s really realistically only displace that
9465s Genji with a whip shot or with the punch
9466s but you know that comes down to the whip
9468s shot or the punch versus the dash is
9469s just still going to have it available
9472s when it's needed like that's that's kind
9475s of correct resources and no there it is
9477s the dash will time scarlet and death
9480s taking the L and Keith onto that pile
9483s and now it's Michel wave they're the
9485s ones that are struggling to come back
9486s they still haven't built up any of those
9487s ultimates just yet n Embers they're on a
9489s tear I that was by the way like a hair
9492s away from the Nano being like too late
9497s got it the frame she got it it went down
9499s onto that was a great Fight Win there
9501s and you know you know just winning with
9503s just that ult combo means Michael wave
9505s they didn't get any work done they're
9506s building up to supportal of their own
9508s kind of passively but they don't have
9510s them online there's the rally available
9512s now and that's going to be forced out
9513s but a huge nade might be the condition
9515s for Michael wave but they get on the
9517s point yes that is a great start for them
9519s it toss both support Al they have to do
9522s it though their ult manag yes it's been
9524s strange but at least they're still in
9525s the game
9526s house that could have been disastrous KZ
9529s anun also hit a big bionade there and a
9531s couple members of Michael wave almost
9533s died Great Rally from Scarlet almost a
9535s disastrous one had they lost that point
9538s there but now they have a dragon blade
9540s of their own they have an overclock they
9542s are going to have a meteor strike it's
9544s the same situation as when nyxl Embers
9547s walked into it but this time nyxl Embers
9549s they have something to say about it they
9550s got a rally of their own to fight back
9552s with and that's going to be the big
9553s difference here is death yes that's
9555s going to be popped early but way too
9557s early and that one almost got the killed
9559s as a matter of fact and wow that is not
9562s good at all that's a main tool that you
9564s needed to pull off it does get you down
9566s to final fight territory on Palace sure
9568s that's something but now nyxl ERS
9570s they're coming back with a overclock of
9572s their own and there's no key their head
9575s ripped right off of their shoulders and
9577s this is just free territory for nyxl to
9580s keep moving up unless Zoe comes out with
9582s absolutely something ridiculous on this
9584s Dragon Blade right now that's going to
9585s be health point is decided 99 to 99 on
9589s both ends it's just the team who decides
9590s to commit more and right now it's n yxl
9593s Ember Zoe is finally getting back in the
9595s fight but at this point you're not using
9597s the Dragon Blade what could have gone
9599s the way of Michael wave switches to the
9601s other side the fountain did explode I'm
9603s not a liar additionally though Zoe like
9605s you don't you don't you invest that
9607s Dragon Blade there you just try to play
9608s the point long enough for some more
9609s bodies to get on to maybe find an
9611s opportunity an opening to use it but
9613s there was never a chance where she was
9615s going to be able to pull off of 5v1
9617s there there was just too much momentum
9618s in favor of nyxl Embers we're going up
9621s to 1 so you hold on to that dragon blade
9623s for the next point but you're still
9624s miles away from a nano boost to try and
9626s you know bolster that one nyxl Embers
9629s they've got one of their own they're
9630s going to go ahead and invest that
9631s overclock early from X10 on an off angle
9634s here and that's going to split everybody
9635s off from Mari you're getting all the
9637s value in the world even if it's not
9638s necessarily an eliminations here so nyxl
9641s ERS they're in Prime position for the
9643s setup on this point they slow down
9645s Michael wave just enough to get that
9647s first little bit of capture Point still
9650s debating on the pokon all right there we
9652s go Michael wave they can't move up the
9654s Dragon Blade still waiting in the CH for
9656s Zoe to pull that outfit it's been there
9658s for so long you need to expect big
9660s things from this player but she we know
9662s very well she don't need no blade she's
9664s too fancy for him she can do it with PL
9667s old a raw geni skill that she's not even
9669s going to end up using it
9673s here this is one of those situations
9675s though where we talk talking about nyxl
9676s emers having the ult advantage they kind
9678s of needed to press it there I think they
9680s might have been waiting for chado to
9681s build up to the blade so they can go for
9683s their own nanoade composition but they
9685s wasted too much time they've lost the
9686s point yeah they take 31% but Michael
9689s wave is going to match that they have
9690s their own nanoblade now and a rally
9692s coming up and an overclock and nyxl
9695s Embers you know they again they only use
9697s their overclock you need to invest more
9700s that's the thing if you're looking at
9701s what Mich wave has right now you know
9703s what the best for is investing first
9705s chado takes it up puts it to three kid
9707s Zoe even managed to match that the rest
9709s of the team is back trying to keep them
9711s alive and Zoe held on to it for so long
9713s was waiting for the Nano CB and that is
9716s worst case scenario right now every uh
9719s every Diamond OverWatch coach will tell
9721s you go first and I mean honestly
9723s sometimes it's true nyxl Embers they go
9725s first with their their nanoblade and by
9727s the time Zoe's able to pop hers there's
9729s just nobody alive to help bolster that
9731s help capitalize off of the big
9732s distraction that's going to cause in
9734s fact they don't even really need to
9735s trouble El with it do nyxl Embers
9737s because I mean they Michael waves
9738s already lost their supports they've
9740s already lost their backline death's
9741s going to go ahead and Pop That overclock
9742s to try and engage but boing fish going
9744s to Zone death out not allow that soj to
9747s find any favorable angles and yeah that
9749s ultimate going to pet her out the over
9751s clock been so poor but not that real
9754s shot that was an absolute spectacle to
9757s go ahead and watch there you go Zoe
9759s moved on in yes she's going to go down
9761s plenty for Michael wave still attempt at
9764s at this point and the ultimate economy
9766s finally back to a more imaginable State
9768s you're fine yeah it it's 99% though for
9771s nyxl Embers and they have the tools they
9773s need to try and buy their way back into
9775s it we got a tank go and a rally on
9776s either side you're kind of relying a lot
9778s on the DPS on either side to make the
9780s plays in these dive compositions and a
9782s lot of the times it's either Zoe or it's
9785s chado we got to keep an eye on both
9787s Genji that's a huge though that comes
9789s out from Keith wow that n just saves the
9791s entire point the rally yes that's going
9794s to come out but so did it you that's
9797s just great that is great for Michael
9798s wave winning that off of an ability
9801s alone to carry this ultimate Advantage
9803s into the next point is the best thing
9805s that they could have asked I mean you
9808s know I was talking about the DPS we got
9809s to highlight the supports as well
9810s because Keith and anyon have both been
9812s hitting phenomenal bades that are
9814s cracking some of these fights wide open
9816s when we're in a stalemate all you got to
9818s see is when someone turns purple they're
9820s about to turn black and blue if the DPS
9822s or the tanks have anything to say about
9823s it Michael wave go up 2-1 on Sasa one
9827s point away from staking their claim as
9830s the top dogs in Swiss stage for now we
9833s still got another round after this only
9835s tankles on either side but Keith nearly
9838s has that Nano and Zoey and chado neck
9841s and neck in terms of Dragon Blade
9843s charge now you got to be looking at the
9848s coming up that's antra option to work
9849s but either way the fireworks are about
9851s to go off back to the idea how much do
9854s striking first really matter will be
9856s Molly first button that will be pressed
9858s the meteor strike popped early moving
9859s fish needed that one to stay on the map
9861s nice sleep coming in no more Angry winon
9864s winon go napnap and winon go bye-bye
9866s moving fish putting them down into the
9868s dirt and proceed to punch and swing
9871s their way through the remainder of Micha
9874s wave so it was a great play for Mari to
9876s use that Primal Rage stay as long as she
9878s did and even Force out the meteor strike
9880s by nearly knocking moving fish off the
9881s point but it all gets flipped right on
9883s its head with just one sleep Dart from
9885s from anun and the followup damage coming
9887s through once Mari Falls so do do the
9889s rest of the dominoes and nyxl Embers
9892s they get first cap here and they only
9894s had to use that meteor strike to do it
9896s the old banks are getting pretty beefy
9898s on either side though but that's going
9899s to favor nyxl Embers a lot a big old
9902s bank usually is going to mean a longer
9904s more drawn out fight and that's going to
9906s mean more cap percentage as they surpass
9908s Michael wave of course you need to look
9909s at the M blade so far it's a nice whip
9911s shot keep zoy up in the air but if you
9913s can just dash dash slash and Dash even
9916s more then that's all you need but just
9918s entering on the other side this one
9919s still even Zoe has to stay alive right
9922s now he'll back up to full health and
9924s driving Aion oh that's done Michael wave
9926s best elimination that they could have
9928s gotten in this entire situation would
9929s have liked to hold on to the rally but
9931s if it gives you that fight win and gives
9933s nyxl Embers the chance to go through you
9935s take it 75% 76% sorry for nyxl Embers if
9940s they manage to find the flip here this
9942s would be the cap Michael wave they have
9944s to be perfect the rest of the way
9945s through if they want to close this one
9946s out otherwise we're going to five on map
9949s three only death's overclock versus x10s
9952s and death is going to have the
9953s positional Advantage being that they
9955s have the cap here or you is holding on
9958s to that rally that might be the
9960s Difference Maker for these two teams
9961s just trying to keep the fight going long
9963s enough for nyxl Embers simultaneous
9965s overclocks being popped X10 doesn't
9967s really have a great shot such a strange
9970s angle to work out and I mean J you're on
9972s a flank pressuring the ANUK he's not
9974s going to heal anyone but you don't have
9976s a doomfist x needs to kill Keith right
9978s now but they live how much that's got to
9980s be like a singular Health Point to pull
9982s through and that play right there CB
9984s that's it this is done it's only the BR
9987s on to the point pressured under three
9988s people moving fish guarantees the touch
9990s NY members they get in this he's flying
9993s off the map it's going to come down to
9995s the wire this is going to be the last
9996s fight on the point regardless of the
9998s results coming through the ultimate yes
10000s they're going to be kicking up Mari
10001s comes back with that Primal Rage in toe
10003s but that's if she has a team to able to
10005s support her exad is stealing friends one
10008s by one nyxl Erse never count them out of
10012s a fight because this one's still going
10015s Mari went super super deep to try and
10017s pressure the members of nyxl Embers from
10018s being able to support that overclock
10020s that came out from X10 sure the
10022s overclock doesn't find anything but when
10023s they find the pickoff onto Mari and they
10026s have the meteor strike and they have the
10028s rally to try and buy their way back into
10029s the fight they find a couple of picks it
10031s suddenly becomes Do or Die time and it
10033s just once again it is Mario go ahead and
10035s pop the Primal Rage to try and keep this
10037s fight alive try and keep Michael waves
10039s hopes alive but she's all that they have
10041s right now that's it I mean as soon as
10043s that Primal R is done Mari is quite
10045s literally just a punching bag for this
10047s team where so ends up going down just 2%
10049s away from that Dragon Blade and yxl ever
10052s they want to close this out knowing at
10054s this point they want to take it all the
10056s distance but they need to do it very
10058s quickly the Nal boost and the r
10059s everything out of Michael wave they have
10061s to win this fight now with how much they
10063s poured into it the support's gone
10065s they've limited crowd to stand under but
10067s all they got is chado and chado is going
10069s to do it all Michael wave they used all
10071s of their resources and they're going to
10072s be in trouble in moving forwards not all
10075s of their resources cuz they didn't have
10077s the Nano and they didn't pop the blad so
10079s they are going to have that but I mean
10081s they did sink a lot of cost into that
10083s point which did end up being a losing
10084s fight I think if they would have hold
10085s held on to that overclock you know you
10087s invest the rally to try and keep the
10088s fight alive and see if maybe you can
10090s close it out that way but you know throw
10092s that one down the drain I think I would
10093s like to have the overclock here just to
10095s give myself that extra edge here but now
10097s Michael wave they have positional
10098s Advantage they're going to pop the
10099s nanoade what does nyxl Embers do and
10102s they got to run away they want to try to
10103s get whip up before you gets a good old
10104s whiff out of that one Zoe gets the one
10106s elimination plenty for them to work off
10109s of the rest of nyxl Ember should crumple
10111s like Domino but as long as alive this
10114s one is still very good to continue
10116s fighting on Michael wave they get the
10118s first cap and at this point we expect
10121s regroups they do have to invest that
10123s nanoade I mean nyxl emers they had a
10125s pull spawn they Ed that they're still
10126s holding on to a meteor strike here but
10128s you know Michael wave this is where it's
10129s going to get really really tricky cuz
10131s death is going to have the positional
10132s advantage to try and charge us with
10133s these rail shots moving fish has to deny
10135s some of these angles and that's risky
10137s that's one of those positions where
10138s they're going to lose sight of their
10139s supports and that leaves them oh moving
10141s fish is so low does have the meteor
10143s strike so I understand wanting to overc
10145s commit here but with Mari being on this
10147s win cutting yourself off is not what you
10150s wants to be doing holding on the meteor
10151s stri as long as possible caught it out
10152s nowo getting very dicey there removing
10155s fish the meteor strike back on over to
10157s safety but with all of these flashy
10159s things going on by the way they're still
10160s sing up percentage 65% and counting that
10164s that's an ult used a fight not one and
10166s time blood off the bank we still haven't
10168s found any blood on either side but you
10171s know if you're Micha wave you don't need
10172s any blood you just need time and there's
10174s not a whole lot of it left for nyxl
10176s Embers Nan going to come out the Sleep
10177s Dart misses sleep Dart misses that's it
10179s that's it moving P right now has a point
10180s to engage this full supports taken down
10183s and EM that get them so long to finally
10186s confirm those eliminations and even then
10188s they're not out of the waters yet
10190s ideally looking to get that swap out but
10192s it was not easy it cost them the Nano to
10195s do it but Keith whiffing that sleep Dart
10198s by just a hair is all that they need if
10200s they had landed that onto moving fish
10201s this will be done that would they just
10203s wait out the Nano punish the doomfist
10205s force out more cool Downs take more
10206s space they're able to stay alive
10208s throughout all that great pulse bomb on
10210s the Scarlet even more time and now it's
10213s starting to get a little bit more scary
10215s if you're Michael wave sure you have the
10217s SS but are you going to be given a
10218s chance to use them that's a whole fight
10220s that's a whole fight right there Michael
10222s wave should be able to get a contest in
10224s but with how well nyxl Embers have been
10226s initiating CB they got to move quick oh
10231s really Andel want to go quick oh they're
10233s in and jado is deep too deep what could
10235s argue that is a devastating error coming
10238s on in so Michael wave they're free to
10240s pop the 1 2 3 four ultimates that they
10242s have Zoe all the Time in the World to
10244s pull this one through the nade and Mari
10246s working hand in hand to push Michael
10249s wave closer and closer they're going to
10250s get the flip back nyxl Embers they're
10252s not even going to get a touch in on this
10255s it's just that nade that comes out from
10256s Keith and no one is able to help save
10258s chis and no one is able to touch Michael
10261s wave are your top dogs here in the Swiss
10265s rounds thus far they continue their
10267s undefeated streak and listen they're
10270s taking down some Heavy Hitters along the
10272s way in fact all the other Heavy Hitters
10274s are now part of Michael W's body count
10277s this one puts them over nyxl Embers one
10279s of the sleeper picks that a lot of
10281s people were talking about as one of the
10283s potential favorites they've slain the
10285s dragons the seemingly Unstoppable
10288s Timeless ethereal and they have even
10290s bested drainers Michael wave a surprise
10294s to be sure this doomfist composition oh
10297s it holds some water wow how many of you
10300s actually expected Michael wave to come
10302s out on top of this today you are looking
10304s at an nyxl roster that has been
10308s ridiculous throughout this tournament
10309s you have some of the best players that
10310s you are going to find in calling all
10312s heroes where players like Mari are often
10313s swept under the rug hasn't had too many
10315s notable results but this win right here
10318s maintaining your undefeated record with
10320s only one more Swift stage to go through
10322s not only if you guaranteed yourselves in
10324s a playoff spot but you are now the top
10326s dog you are now that team that players
10328s are afraid to face up against I mean I
10331s would be afraid to face off against Mari
10333s because she is so flexible so talented
10335s not just on this doomfist like I said
10338s last tournament she was a standout Sigma
10340s player as well and we've known her to be
10341s a strong junker Queen player in the past
10344s she's even showing pretty strong Winston
10345s play going forward I don't know if there
10347s is a tank that Mari can play that won't
10350s be at like the top level right now this
10352s doomfist is at the top level they are
10355s the top team they are the team to beat
10357s and you know props to nyxl Embers for on
10360s vsan seemingly getting the better on
10363s this doomfist composition of Michael
10365s wave but on covasa and on Kings Row it
10368s wasn't enough no not at all and good as
10372s they looked this series was close we
10375s went all five maps in flash point 99 to
10377s 99 and several parts us on not to
10379s mention the King's Row game that we
10381s really start to saw where it came alive
10384s right I mean that is where the change
10386s started to happen you're looking at
10388s Players like Mor come up and set your
10391s team up for Success the Winston not a
10393s pick that you're going to conventionally
10394s see especially at the top levels of
10396s gameplay but with how well Mari knows
10398s how to play it on a macro and micro
10400s level this is what you need to be scared
10402s of the te op team now has been assorted
10405s and you need to be watching these guys
10407s as they continue their Journey Through
10408s the tournament quite deceptively though
10410s the doomfist composition that Mari likes
10412s to play is kind of a one-w punch you've
10414s got the initial punch from the doomfist
10416s and the even heavier hits that come out
10418s from Zoe on that Genji what phenomenal
10421s play across the board and this is a
10422s scary team to go against when you know
10424s that they can play all of these
10425s different compositions they can play two
10427s different flavors of the dive best you
10428s on it and potentially even swap over to
10431s that Sigma comp and mirror you on that
10433s or play something else who even knows
10435s maybe Mari has just a phenomenal Road
10437s Hog that we haven't seen yet and maybe
10438s she bust that out and and you know maybe
10441s that's what we see in Grand finals but
10443s hey if you want to see something like
10444s that there's only one way to do that and
10446s that's to stick around and continue
10448s supporting calling all heroes we're
10450s going to cut to a quick break real quick
10451s we'll be right back with the Chipotle
10453s MVP and the Chipotle Real Talk interview
10456s we're going to have to get someone from
10457s Michael wave to uh explain just what
10459s makes them so dominant we'll see you
10461s right after
10467s [Music]
10483s this
10489s [Music]
10513s I
10525s [Applause]
10529s [Music]
10537s [Applause]
10552s [Music]
10561s [Applause]
10562s [Music]

10635s [Music]
10659s [Music]
10674s [Music]
10687s [Music]
10697s it would seem as though the entire
10698s landscape of calling all heroes has
10700s changed with just the past two swis
10702s rounds and it's been Michael wave that
10705s has made waves with two key victories
10707s first snapping the win streak of
10710s Timeless ethereal and second shutting
10713s down the upstarts nyxl Embers that a lot
10716s of people expected a lot of big things
10718s from but it's been it's been Michael
10720s wave they are the new wave here in
10722s calling o Heroes wow
10725s the new wave of hype maybe a tsunami if
10727s you really want to go that far they have
10729s been stepping it up every single time
10731s that we get to see them on broadcast
10733s because not only have they taken down
10735s nyxl Embers but also Timeless ethereal
10738s in their previous match that was played
10740s off stream I mean if nobody can stop
10742s this team then I mean they're looking
10744s clean for a run all the way to the
10747s Championships in CB we got to highlight
10749s the individuals in this match and one
10751s individual in particular I'm going to go
10753s ahead and you know set it up by saying
10754s there's two individuals here it's you
10756s know if you've ever played dodgeball are
10758s you familiar with the lob and drill
10759s technique it's where someone throws a
10761s dodgeball straight up in the air and
10762s then a second one comes at you and
10764s drills you say hello to the drill your
10767s Chipotle MVP Zoe on the Genji here she
10771s doesn't need a dragon blade folks she's
10773s able to pump out this much damage this
10775s many eliminations and final blows you
10779s without a dragon blade 90% of the time
10780s sure when she does have it oh you need
10782s to respect it but when she doesn't have
10784s it it pretend she does anyway exactly
10787s you never know what is going to be
10788s coming next for Zoe most notably you got
10792s to talk about King's Row she played a
10794s crucial role when it came to her attack
10797s with Michael wave got 5K without a
10799s dragon blade opened up the battle time
10802s and time again you physically cannot ask
10804s Zoe to do anymore but you know what she
10806s did TB she continued to deliver she did
10809s more than anybody even thought was
10810s possible for a single Genji player in
10813s the highest skill level that we have of
10815s this match up here today she she
10818s delivered I mean and the only thing that
10820s could possibly I would enjoy being
10822s delivered more so than a performance
10823s like this this from Zoe is a Chipotle
10826s burrito right about now but we'll talk
10827s about that a little bit later we
10830s actually have Zoe on here for an
10832s interview we're gonna we're gonna talk
10834s with her we're gonna see exactly you
10837s know what this all what what this all is
10839s see see how how she's feeling I mean Hey
10841s Zoe how are you feeling how are you
10843s doing uh hello hi um I'm very excitic I
10848s my hands are shaking uh it was a fun
10850s game uh
10852s yes I
10855s yeah sorry I don't know we're both a
10858s little bit a little bit flustered here I
10859s mean yeah it was a fun game but like you
10861s know we didn't even see it uh you know
10863s on you on the stream because it happened
10865s off stream that you guys beat Timeless
10867s ethereal 20 and then you come and you
10869s take out nyxl Embers you were coming for
10872s all of the top dogs here and you have
10873s now State your claim a top the Swiss
10876s bracket so far so how do you feel you
10878s know taking on all these big
10879s names uh I feel great I'm actually
10882s pretty new to the scene I fought from
10884s console on January and I've just been on
10886s the riseing grind and I feel I'm so
10888s happy I can actually see like you know
10890s the potential like my I'm able to show
10893s what I what I made
10895s for that's awesome hearing that from a
10897s fellow console player myself it's great
10900s to hear those console players start to
10902s rise through the ranks here especially
10903s in and calling all heroes and Ian we saw
10906s everyone saw your performance today and
10908s my mind is absolutely blown as with the
10910s entirety of the audience particularly
10911s there on King's throw can you talk about
10914s just kind of what was what was the plan
10916s what was really going through your head
10917s when it came to that map understanding
10919s that you guys had to
10920s win I'm not gonna lie I saw uh the death
10924s my seant just shoot something and then
10926s they were like they're tagged and I just
10928s dashed and hope for the best and I kept
10930s doing that and doing that and it just
10931s kept working it was actually so fun like
10934s the amount of like one V one Del I take
10937s I took there like across the map and won
10939s it was just like so exhilarating I love
10941s taking those DS they're so fun hey and
10944s we love watching you take those DS an
10947s absolute spectacle of a play that you
10949s put on for us today and you know I want
10951s to talk a little bit more about the
10952s event similar questions we asked earlier
10954s of course you've been playing in this
10955s tournament for quite some time you've
10957s been rising through the ranks and now
10959s find yourselves here at currently the
10961s top of the calling all heroes major 3
10962s Swiss stage tell us a little bit about
10965s what calling o Heroes the event itself
10966s means to
10967s you um I'm not going to lie I wasn't
10971s really interested in to the pro scene
10972s when I SW to PC but I saw calling heroes
10975s in I believe it was Major one on January
10977s and I was just like Amazed by it and I
10979s was like I want to play in here I want
10981s to play with these people I want to play
10982s with people I can relate to and I I
10984s found I found friends I found a lot of
10986s friends here and I'm

11081s that was actually really great to hear
11082s from Zoe and and some of the Insight
11084s that she had into kind of the team how
11086s it's been operating and of course
11087s hearing about these players Journeys up
11089s to calling all heroes that's probably
11091s got to be like one of the my personal
11092s favorite things when it comes to these
11094s interviews and overall this tournament
11096s yeah for I mean calling all heroes for a
11099s lot of these players is not going to be
11100s the end goal but it's going to be an
11102s important step in their growth and
11103s development and it's something that I am
11105s so grateful that I get to be here and be
11107s a part of and I'm very thankful that all
11109s of you in chat get to be here and
11110s support it and enjoy it with us but
11112s unfortunately chat we have to cut you
11114s loose for a quick break before we come
11116s back we've got a third map we're not
11118s quite done yet today but it's going to
11120s be a little bit we'll you know we'll get
11121s some more heated spirited debates about
11124s uh waffles versus pancakes in the chat
11126s here burritos clear them both we'll see

11435s for all the armchair analysts out there
11438s let's go ahead and uh have a quick look
11440s at Noble chairs thank you very much for
11442s sponsor ing calling all heroes if you
11444s want to get the best armchair in the
11447s business use the discount code radiant
11449s for 10% off thank you again to Noble
11451s chairs for the sponsorship get yourself
11454s one they're comfy I love them and uh you
11457s know you might want to get comfortable
11459s because we still got one more game to go
11462s and this one it's gonna be a good one um
11464s feel it we have Timeless Celestial
11467s taking on eer zazaki versus ten Goku for
11471s the sixth and Fin final round of Swiss
11474s stage today which we're going to have
11475s those standings up for you right about
11477s now so just as a reminder those top
11480s eight teams those are the ones that are
11481s going to be qualifying to move on to our
11484s double elimination playoff bracket next
11486s weekend now if you take a little look at
11489s eth and 10th respectively we have
11491s Timeless Celestial and iraki so
11493s essentially whoever wins this game is
11496s basically guaranteed a spot within the
11498s playoffs and it's going to get a little
11501s bit scary cuz you saw some of those
11502s other teams that there's a lot of three
11504s and twos down there some of those are
11505s going to become four and twos some of
11507s those are going to become three and
11508s threes if you're one of the three and
11510s threes your playoff spot is not
11512s guaranteed so you know for either of
11514s these teams it has massive playoff
11516s implications and again you want to be in
11518s the playoffs for this major because you
11520s want to get as many points as you
11521s possibly can so you do not have to Brave
11524s the hellscape that is Last Chance
11526s qualifiers if you want to buy your way
11528s into the Championships in February time
11531s is running out you know speaking of not
11534s having time let's have a look of at
11536s Timeless Celestial and their roster
11538s finally a Timeless roster named after an
11541s ed Sheran song they've been receiving my
11543s uh my letters in the mail for months now
11545s I've been begging and pleading and
11547s they've picked up a pretty solid roster
11549s to fill that out okay okay I'm liking
11552s what I'm seeing out here other than the
11554s double Moira but we'll revisit that if
11556s we do see a double Moira Aur will be
11559s coming in onto this roster a well-known
11561s DPS player within the calling all heroes
11563s seen Gom as well has seen their fair
11566s share of competition throughout the
11570s entire duration of these calling old
11571s Heroes events and fun fact everybody
11574s they hear
11576s camels I kid you not that is what they
11578s have written down as their fun fact
11580s about them is they hear camels anyone
11581s know what that means they hear camels
11584s what oh I mean
11587s okay all right well you know what I'm
11590s going to swiftly move on from that cuz I
11592s don't know what to do with that
11593s information that's another you know
11595s Garchomp is one of those tank players
11596s that I would kind of put in the same
11598s conversation as someone like Avery who
11601s uh you know is a little bit underrated
11602s but a very very strong tank player a
11604s very strong Sigma player was among the
11606s crop of extremely talented Sigma players
11608s in the previous uh the previous minor
11611s tournament for this major though I'm
11613s wondering if that's what they're going
11614s to come out here with or if Garchomp has
11616s another look and what is this team's
11618s identity as a whole because you know
11620s they've got their their big brother team
11621s you know Timeless ethereal who's you
11623s know still doing pretty strong not as
11625s hot as they once were but some uh
11627s something big to live up
11629s to yeah I mean Timeless just having that
11631s title over your head makes it seem like
11634s you have to perform right and getting a
11636s spot in that playoff that's where you
11638s want to be but with this squad standing
11640s in your way we'll get a look at the next
11642s five players coming on in yeah it's
11646s going to be an araki X10 Goku which I've
11649s been informed is a highq ship I haven't
11651s actually watched highq but I do love b
11653s ball so you know this team is ready to
11655s serve up some big plays hopefully we'll
11657s be seeing some of this dive composition
11659s that this is kind of uh kind of alluding
11662s to but a lot of these are kind of
11664s unknown names people who haven't really
11666s made as big of a splash in the scene as
11668s some of the other players especially you
11670s know on the other side of time of
11671s celestial like we you know we know azire
11673s we know garchon but we haven't really
11675s seen as much from names like monarch
11677s like Blissful there is definitely a lot
11680s for this team to prove and hey a win
11682s over a story team like Timeless
11684s Celestial can indeed you know put you
11686s over that edge and also punch your
11688s ticket to playoffs that's a great way to
11690s start making an name for yourself yeah I
11692s mean looking at this team is like you
11695s said it's people that want to prove
11697s themselves taking down a very notable
11699s opponent plus potentially qualifying for
11701s the playoffs all right now we're talking
11704s and of course it's going to start in an
11706s unfamiliar territory well I say
11708s unfamiliar it's been out for a little
11709s bit Samoa will be where we be starting
11712s our journey for the sixth and final
11714s round of the Swiss stage today and I I
11717s do really love this map being an
11719s addition to the game of OverWatch it
11721s offers some level of familiarities with
11724s some points looking similar to other
11725s controls in the past tense downtown or
11728s if we look at other areas that are
11730s completely brand new yeah I mean volcano
11733s has a lot of identity to it it's a kind
11735s of its own real thing here sometimes
11737s plays a little bit like Oasis University
11739s but you know has that jump pad with the
11741s hole in the middle there and also lava a
11743s new introduction into OverWatch I mean I
11746s really like Samoa as a map and I think
11747s it's the first time that we get to see
11749s it uh you know at least today and it has
11752s a lot of points where it might very well
11754s favor again a doomfist dive if they want
11756s to go with that I believe this point in
11757s particular is going to be phenomenal for
11759s that but it does also serve the sigma
11762s composition well so which direction are
11764s these two teams going to go in it seems
11768s both
11770s both there you go that's the strong
11772s answer what kind of expected from our
11773s last match up we're going to actually
11775s get it here with Garchomp rolling out
11777s with the
11779s sigma no no NOP too soon too soon I got
11781s to wait 10 seconds and then we can
11783s revisit this conversation CB I I really
11786s okay I I always say don't get baited by
11788s the attack resp spawns but I really hate
11790s when you have like a whole coherent
11791s composition and then you just like n
11793s you're troll get get ja baited nerd
11795s switching all over to a doomfist dive
11797s but anyway like we said in this doomfist
11799s mirror a lot of the pressure is going to
11801s be on either brig try and hit the big
11803s whip shots keep their backline you know
11805s keep some of the pressure off of their
11807s backline so they can maintain that Los
11809s on the enemy doomfist a lot of pressure
11811s on the anas as well to not lose losos
11813s and to not get too distracted by some of
11815s the Dives we've got tracers on either
11817s side we haven't seen as much of her
11819s coming out in this composition no not at
11821s all but I wish we see more if this is
11823s how Blissful wants to start off the day
11825s snagging oion chin though firing fight
11828s back and that's going to be the thing
11829s here the Timeless they're going to have
11830s a tank me to push off of not the sustain
11833s to keep them alive though so inaki
11836s getting a strong start here with that
11838s wonderful play from BL andar and it's
11841s the pickoff onto Orion you can tell
11842s Garchomp had you know Azu had a a
11845s bullseye on their forehead and Garchomp
11847s wanted to try and capitalize on that
11848s knowing that they didn't have the hon to
11850s sustain tried to make a quick play but
11852s got punished for it but speaking of
11853s getting punished kuna gets punished for
11855s peeking out a little bit too far iion
11857s takes advantage you got to be respecting
11859s your opponents and same can be said for
11861s Monarch saw Orion sitting there nice and
11863s juicy for the fing but sleep dark you
11865s got it back on out and in the matter of
11867s time you saw the same thing come out or
11869s chop attempted that but he see the
11870s assist com through that a sleep and a
11872s bionade onto the tank player the counter
11874s play has been Stellar thus far by inaki
11877s Blissful in particular picking up a
11879s casual triple kill Blissful Tracer is
11881s already you know showing why we're not
11883s going with the Genji variant here that's
11884s a great pulse bomb the all right
11887s mutually assured destruction I go down
11889s you're going down with me says Orion but
11891s you will take that if if you are in our
11894s in araki X10 Goku cuz your Tracer is
11896s going to get back a hell of a lot faster
11898s than the enemy Anna is and you get to
11900s keep the percentage ticking up early
11902s Nano boost to keep the advantage Nano
11905s boost coming out just to buy more space
11907s to go on through T Celestial they
11909s haven't been that close to their
11910s ultimate so far that will really be what
11912s this fight is all about for them and
11914s they're not going to have too many
11916s coming out afterwards so time of
11918s celestial it's on them to start to make
11920s a move but ran got the Nal boost in oh
11923s assuming that they're going to be able
11924s to live through this onslaught of damage
11926s of ending do another sleep onto G chop
11929s forces that n just a little bit earlier
11930s doesn't really have the cool Downs to
11932s push on up auno Prime for the picket
11935s there time of celestial finally them
11937s coming up big but you have to
11939s acknowledge B is still alive and K doing
11942s way more than that to the backline and
11944s now G moving in on a down Vita that
11947s should be falling shortly after this is
11950s what still need it I mean in all the
11952s fights that in inarizaki have been
11954s winning it's been that they've been able
11955s to isolate and take down Garchomp first
11957s and they're showing why Garchomp is such
11959s a threat you leave them on the field for
11961s too long they're going to just pick up a
11962s 3K but it does take a lot of a lot of
11965s time for that to manifest 97% for
11967s inarizaki x and Goku and ESS Celestial
11970s yeah sure they have S to try and stagger
11971s this out but they don't really have a
11973s whole lot of room for error
11975s anymore no and that's kind of what
11977s you're pushing out is knowing that
11979s you're on one fight territory how well
11981s can you pace yourself self with this
11983s ultimate usage and time cesal if they
11986s start to get clar with they're going to
11988s come right back in and strike blackful
11990s has yet another pulse bomb to be able to
11993s pull art partner with so many other
11995s tools but it'll actually be time of
11996s celestial to pull the trigger first
11998s overclock in FL no heads in sight so
12001s that one look rather down to R so see
12003s that they understand that they have time
12005s to work with B doesn't find much but
12007s Bion on the other side gets the soier
12009s counterpart once again kuna keeps
12011s overextending Bliss will being shut down
12013s here this has to be a regroup yeah and
12016s that's a heavy investment for Anar Zaki
12017s X1 Goku especially using that rally
12019s there where time Celestial able to hold
12021s on to their own there I mean they have a
12023s pulse bomb they have a nano coming up
12025s this is getting pretty scary for araki
12027s it's going to be kind of up to kuna or
12029s Blissful to find an early pick here if
12031s Azu gets that Nano up you know you have
12034s something but you still kind of have to
12036s like buy your way into that you still
12037s have a lot going on on the other side
12038s Orion's going to have a nano of their
12040s own uh-huh yeah and last time that this
12041s came out Garchomp worked wonders with it
12044s so whether you gu with Garchomp or
12046s somebody else you're going to be totally
12048s fine to win another day especially the H
12050s looking for sneak back catches onto the
12052s wall oh so close no one was expecting it
12055s to come out through and that just the
12057s resource didn't get the N boost or get
12061s opportunity to use the metor strike that
12062s is terrible for time celential Jingo
12065s gets blown to bits and inaki they're
12067s coming back in at the final time seal
12069s they ran out of time themselves there
12071s the one that are rather Timeless here
12073s inaki striking back getting that flip
12076s over 99% about to hit last second touch
12079s gar will have a little bit of an
12080s opportunity to stall this one out I see
12082s Gino rounding the corner to recall
12085s already forc the main resources are gone
12087s this just trickles of players coming
12089s back in hoping for some sort of Miracle
12092s which we are simply not going to be
12094s seeing here today inaki and Goku looking
12098s pretty darn good out here for a squad
12100s that we first returned to as nameless we
12102s need to be paying attention to I I would
12104s pay greater attention to Blissful or
12106s maybe if you're the backline you pay
12107s less attention to Blissful I'm not sure
12109s but every single fight that inarizaki X
12112s and Goku are winning it's because
12113s they're putting Garchomp in the dirt
12115s first and what I like what I feel like
12118s is happening here is they're afraid of
12120s blissful on the Tracer who's going to be
12122s constantly pressuring them but has the
12123s blinks to dip and Dodge out of cover
12125s just be a distraction and while their
12127s backs are turned a guard chomp is
12129s falling all the punish is there from the
12131s other side it's just the Tracer
12133s variation of this composition getting
12134s the better it's a little bit different
12136s from what we see when we see the Genji
12137s right we see with the Genji it's the
12139s slam and then the followup or it's the
12141s sojourn rail body shot and the followup
12143s with the dash it's a completely
12145s different variation of this composition
12146s but we're seeing a new way for it to
12148s play out and Yeah guard Chom I think has
12150s had enough of it understandably
12152s understandably if you're getting shut
12154s down that much you switch it up go over
12156s to the hero with the GLE classic Boulder
12158s just Chuck it in Monarch's face and B B
12161s bada boom right should be that simple oh
12163s it is not these play are going to be
12165s fast they're going to be swarming around
12167s Timeless Celestial so they're going to
12168s have a big tactic ahead of them to slow
12171s down the pace of the game with all of
12173s these stuns the CC that they have at
12174s their disposal and get a cack there's a
12177s nice wall to section off Monarch there
12179s and they do actually confirm the kill
12181s there that's going to be massive that's
12182s going to be ESS Celestial take in the
12183s first half here and the First Advantage
12186s and that's what we need right is you
12187s need to use the CC to your advantage you
12189s only get one accre as Maye is going to
12191s help it close range slowing down what
12193s iraki want to do not allowing Bliss to
12195s set up and finding a good May wall
12198s against an enemy doomfist is really
12199s really difficult you really have to pin
12201s him down into like a corner and also
12203s wait for him to bleed out all of his
12205s cool Downs to where he only has the
12206s power block if that Jingo is able to do
12209s just that Monarch nearly survives with
12211s the damage resistance from the power
12213s block and the healing that comes through
12214s but without like a Baptist immortality
12216s field on the other side like once that
12218s wall comes down you know there's still a
12219s lot of damage that's going to come
12221s through such a small bit of opportunity
12223s to work with but kincho has been
12225s striking a back that's head with an ICI
12227s hole in it Andi there they're out
12230s they're not able to play the Su the way
12232s that they wanted to time of celestial
12234s res it perfectly with the swaps that
12236s they've made and looks so much better
12238s as one great way to keep Bliss under
12241s control I guess is icicle labotomy and
12243s Jingo dealing out just that almost has
12245s that Bard but G chop is taking so much
12247s damage so much pressure 20 hp what okay
12251s there we go I was like there's no way
12252s that our toop managed to live as good as
12254s a Ryan and the mer are that's pushing
12256s your luck right now and time Celestial
12258s down on their tank but may essentially a
12261s second tank so Jingo has the ability to
12263s close this out not only with the
12264s blizzard but the May walls coming in all
12266s the health in the world Celestial
12268s they're going to S this out and they're
12270s even grabbing ASU with her going down
12272s this is very much winable it has to take
12274s some super Stellar play to come on back
12277s that's Monarch's meor strike into the
12278s backl the rally on overclock coming on
12280s in this better be a fight then iaki
12282s comes out on top of because they're not
12284s going to get another one like this
12285s anytime soon Muno they know that and are
12289s finally confirming the I I feel like
12291s they waited too long to KCK that fight
12293s off though did in arzak X10 Goku they
12295s had the advantage with Garchomp but
12297s Monarch took a lot of damage and there
12298s was a May wall in the face I they needed
12300s to try and heal up their doomfist and by
12302s the time they actually go in mer can use
12304s the sound barrier by into the fight
12306s Orion can pop that uh that amp Matrix to
12308s try and see if maybe Timeless Celestial
12309s have another way back in but I mean
12312s aside from the sound barrier that's an
12313s Expendable ultimate and an early pick
12315s off like that means now you can press
12316s your ult advantage and go in and araki
12318s they have to respond and ha the on to
12321s Mar isn't be able to do anything
12323s especially with your other support stuck
12325s up in the sky and Timeless Celestial
12328s they took that opportunity relatively
12329s for free right now and they've looked so
12332s good here on this map moving over to the
12334s sigma they've slowed down the pace and
12335s now it's onizaki to attempt to touch
12338s kuna is going to touch I don't know if
12340s that was in the in the window to trigger
12341s OT but a being is going to be able to
12344s are they they do okay they do find the
12346s Lucio there but it's just stagger City H
12349s pick off on the biome though maybe there
12350s is something here yeah okay now it's
12353s done unless mon manage to manage to skip
12355s out of the barrier a rock that is a take
12357s treatment if I ever seen one Timeless
12359s Celestial changed the game completely
12362s now they're the ones that are driving
12364s the bus straight to a third point and
12366s like you know if you're a doomfist
12368s composition you need to be driving the
12370s bus right over the enemy composition
12371s pressing your advantage you take down
12373s the enemy Sigma if you're not in a
12374s position to capitalize off that you're
12376s going to waste too much time trying to
12377s reset and you know that buys Timeless
12379s Celestial near like all the way up to
12381s 97% where you know they're able to flip
12383s the point and then it's suddenly like
12385s okay we have to trigger OT just to try
12386s and even stay into this they find the
12388s pick off onto Bion great but like you're
12391s you're just bleeding resources left and
12393s right we're tied at one all here and
12394s we're going to this downtown uh Point
12397s here on Samoa and you know we're going
12399s to keep seeing the Sigma versus the
12400s doomfist composition
12402s and we've seen in inaki get the better
12404s of the doomfist mirror but this Sigma
12406s composition for Timeless Celestial they
12408s just feel a little bit more practiced on
12410s it yeah and I don't I'm not sure why we
12412s saw the Doom before perhaps they were
12415s expecting just to play that map a little
12416s bit different course quarters but when
12418s you look at other things like the C
12420s Center here you're looking darn good to
12423s pull this together your top right now
12425s has all of the shields to set up on come
12428s through mon guide in while expect a May
12430s wall at your back ESS they have all
12432s bases covered except maybe the one that
12434s includes a bionade right now Tracer
12437s tempted to pick one of those off but L
12439s will recall out of danger the off angle
12442s slowly they're starting to be surrounded
12444s lovely head shot kuna opening this one
12446s wide open finally Monarch can dive on in
12449s with bliss to look for a little bit more
12453s get and just all the life from Timeless
12455s Celestial gets squeezed out of them from
12457s every angles at one side you've got
12459s Blissful pumping in damage on your
12460s backline from the other you got a
12461s bionade and a followup doomfist and from
12464s a third angle you've got an off angle
12465s kuna with that uh charged overshot
12468s that's going to find your the pickoff
12469s onto the mer and you know once you lose
12472s your Lucio there you can't really weasel
12474s your way out of that corner that you've
12476s trapped yourself into there great play
12478s overall from inar Zaki X1 Goku they have
12480s to try and pin down time of celestial
12482s approach here keep doing that Monarch
12484s takes a bit of damage and has to get out
12486s should get healed up and should be
12487s looking for an opportunity to go back in
12489s here H Le he trying to leverage High
12490s Ground to prevent it
12492s they're going to get themselves on the
12493s Hy Bion now has the angles to work with
12496s but what's interesting about this map CB
12497s is it can be stalled out for so long the
12500s fact that Yaki are in control have that
12502s shot down onto Orion and they don't even
12504s need to stall they know that they have
12506s very much won that fight so far gingo
12508s maybe a little ice FL to the Dome on the
12510s way out the Nano boost onto Monarch
12512s though little bit later in the fight but
12514s if gingo keeps hitting head shot all
12515s right I can see why this may have been I
12517s mean the Nano boost is I mean I think a
12519s little bit Superfluous but yeah finding
12520s that pickoff is is kind of uh you know
12522s kind of good kind of good there you get
12524s to buy yourself a little bit more time
12525s get yourself a little bit more staggers
12527s there realistically they won that fight
12529s off the back of just the pulse bomb and
12531s you know they still have a wealth of Old
12532s Miss deal with this blizzard that should
12534s be coming out here from Jingo yeah Jingo
12537s a lot of power with this Bard there
12539s isn't necessarily going to be a counter
12540s the hardest part be catching people into
12543s that trap especially if you don't have a
12545s team CA overclock to the backline Bion
12548s goes down looking for the m to
12550s imortality had to be committ into that
12552s one as well theer doesn't get anywhere
12554s out oh I believe it even got Capell as a
12556s matter of fact inar here's colors moving
12560s through this battle we're not even going
12561s to see time on Celestial get percentage
12563s on this point if this the way that it
12564s keeps on going I really don't like that
12567s immortality field that came out there
12569s from Orion they Ed the immortality field
12571s to try and keep mer alive but mer had
12573s the beat could have survived that
12575s without that Aid and ends up investing
12576s it anyway and now time of celestial they
12578s have nothing and AR Zaki they take this
12580s one hand
12582s 100 to zero what a roller coaster ride
12586s of Samoa three different looks three
12589s different results and this is really has
12592s to leave you to question what in the
12593s world is the rest of the series going to
12595s entail you've searched big highlight
12597s moments as we're going to see from Monch
12599s on this doomfist really getting
12601s themselves into a situation where they
12603s can dominate with the Doom setting up
12605s the team wonderfully but you also need
12607s to remember the results of volcano this
12608s Sigma comp had the ability to shut them
12611s down completely as soon as they went
12612s tight quarters that is where Timeless
12614s Celestial was able to sign understanding
12617s that there weren't as wasn't as much
12618s space physically for neraki to move
12620s about in those little tunnels that we're
12622s going to see on that map volcano was a
12625s was a very interesting point for for all
12627s multitude of reasons I think it's
12629s overall Samoa is kind of showing us the
12631s parody that goes back and forth between
12632s this Sigma and the doomfist compositions
12634s when we're trying to go head to-head I
12636s feel still like the doomfist composition
12638s is superior but there is still a lot
12640s that can go wrong and we did see on
12642s volcano some things did go wrong you
12644s know some advantages that weren't
12645s pressed some cool Downs that were forced
12647s and you know some really clutch May
12649s walls and clust icicles that came out
12651s from Jingo but overall I really really
12655s like the Tracer look with the the Doom
12657s dive coming out from anaraki I like
12659s Blissful trace of play I think it's been
12661s phenomenal been getting a lot of value
12663s and Monarch is looking pretty solid on
12665s the doomfist this wasn't a player that
12667s you know I was you know looking at their
12668s hero pool and being like oh this is a
12669s doomfist player we got to be on the
12670s lookout for but you know maybe now it
12673s is I mean honestly though Monarch right
12676s now has been a wonderful person to help
12679s the rest of their team succeed kuna and
12681s Bliss they're not doing this all by
12683s themselves even if dupus might not be
12685s the most flashy character when you look
12686s at the kill feed you'll see that little
12688s tiny box next to it those assists those
12690s are the stuns coming in the level of
12691s displacement to allow these shots to
12694s come through that is what they're able
12695s to do Monarch is able to do for their
12697s team leading them as a true Monarch in
12699s that example and you know it's it's got
12701s to be something that Timeless Celestial
12703s has to be acknowledging even if the
12704s doomfist may not be the problem in your
12707s eyes at least in terms of who's getting
12708s the eliminations is the thing that
12710s setting them up the reason you can't
12711s work your own plans is because the pure
12713s existence of Monarch and it's not even
12716s just Monarch too like again it is also
12717s Blissful on one side you know you got
12719s Monarch you got Blissful and then again
12721s you've got the soj on the other side and
12722s when you've got like all of these parts
12724s surrounding you it's chaotic it's hectic
12726s it's really hard to find you know which
12728s way do I go where do I turn my attention
12730s what do I capitalize on and that forces
12732s mistakes like that immortality field
12734s from Orion again like there had to be a
12737s better place that you could have put
12738s that someone that needed it more I think
12739s a Lucio who's holding on to a sound
12741s barrier isn't the best use because I
12744s mean he's gonna wall ride his way right
12746s out of the immortality field anyway and
12747s then come back with that ultimate
12748s ability and you know those are your two
12750s biggest sustainability tools though that
12752s that ultimate and that ability and if
12754s those are both gone it's just a field
12755s day for the enemy team especially as a
12757s dive composition that lamp it's the most
12760s important cool down in the entire
12761s entirety of the composition you force
12763s that out you live to tell the tale you
12765s win the fight and now we're going to go
12767s ahead and start off on another fight a
12770s new Battleground has emerged and when I
12772s say new it's the oldest Battleground in
12773s the book how how new really is Kings Row
12777s maybe if we saw Midtown then we could
12779s say but no we we don't get Midtown and
12780s honestly looking at how that past map
12782s went I think this is the best selection
12784s you when we saw time of celestial start
12786s to succeed is was when you could
12788s physically pull the Reigns in on a team
12790s that was running this St business High
12792s paac comp you are therefore giving them
12795s less room to work with you know you're
12797s not worried about them flying Every
12798s Which Way the corridors of King's Row
12800s play very well to a sigma and a May if
12803s that's what they want to pull out once
12804s again K Thompson looked terrible on the
12806s doomfist but you're not seeing the same
12808s level of followup like we're seeing from
12810s Kuna and Blissful and that comes to the
12812s superior positioning that they've been
12814s pulling out that's arguably been the
12815s most impressive thing that we've seen
12816s for them their ability to Sur and take
12818s these off ankles Staying Alive all the
12820s meanwhile
12822s I I would kind of like to see anaki X10
12824s Goku pull out a May composition here
12825s just because Garchomp is four times weak
12827s to ice type moves I made that same joke
12829s last tournament and I'm going to keep
12830s doing it until somebody laughs please
12832s chat I need this funny very funny we did
12836s also see a lot of like dive compositions
12838s coming out on either side in the past
12839s you know the the Michael wave matchup uh
12842s from before where we saw a lot of
12843s doomfists still being played a lot of
12845s Winston still being played so you know
12848s running that Sigma composition with the
12849s May for the side of timeless celesti
12851s might you know play well to the map
12853s geometry but it doesn't really fully
12855s disqualify inarizaki from getting value
12858s with their doomfist
12859s composition no there's still plenty of
12861s room to be able to work as you saw our
12863s last match doomfist was the name of the
12866s game so that's not really all it comes
12867s down to will it be a little bit more
12868s challenging perhaps it depends on the
12870s answer that Timeless Celestial decide to
12873s come out with since they picked the map
12875s it will be up to their opponents to
12877s select whether they attack or defend
12880s first so
12881s often more times than not they will
12883s choose on to be just on that defense so
12885s you have the opportunity to kind of shut
12887s that one down and hybrid fully comes
12889s down to that momentum type based game
12891s playay so when you're seeing this when
12893s you're seeing teams start to snowball
12895s we've seen it in both of our matches
12896s today that if you fall over they're
12898s struggling to get back up they're
12900s already down and beaten might as well
12901s just go punch them into the ground a
12902s couple more times and well uh we're at a
12905s point where if your time is Celestial
12907s you can f like but up till now it's fall
12909s as many times as you want as long as you
12911s keep getting back up well I mean you
12913s can't fall anymore there's you don't
12914s have the time to get back up because
12915s this is the last round of Swiss and you
12918s want to make sure that you are not in
12920s that danger zone where you're putting up
12921s a 3-3 record and just hoping and praying
12924s for the best because a lot of these
12925s other teams are going to be putting up
12927s the 4-2 record the winner of this one
12928s walks away with a 4-2 record and all but
12932s guarantees that they will be amongst the
12934s playoff conversations once we get the
12936s full shakeup once we see where all the
12937s Swiss standings land but give yourself
12940s the best possible the best possible
12943s footing the best possible way forward if
12945s you're timless Celestial yeah if you get
12947s knocked down again you might not get to
12949s get back up no this is quite literally
12953s their last chance the fact that they've
12954s already lost a map two in this series
12956s and you're not guaranteed a spot to go
12959s to the playoffs at all you saw how many
12961s teams were at three and two as we
12962s started into this game so knowing that
12965s your chances are even Slimmer than
12967s before it quite literally is do or die
12970s in isaki they're primed to continue
12972s running away with this map on Kings Row
12974s if you don't have an answer for this
12976s doomfist it needs to be more consistent
12978s style of gameplay not only for Monarch
12981s but as well as a blissful and C all
12984s right tiny I'm going to put you on the
12985s spot right now uhoh all right which
12987s composition do you think is just the
12989s better composition doomfist or Sigma
12991s from what we've seen all tournament long
12993s which one do you feel is the strongest
12995s one the strongest one I'm going to give
12998s an interesting answer to this I think
13001s that the doomfist has the higher
13003s probability to do well but the also a
13008s higher probability to do worse the sigma
13010s is an overall middle Baseline if you can
13012s learn how to counter it out then you're
13014s fine but it's not easy to do which is
13016s why I'm going to go with the Doom comp I
13018s think you having this greater level of
13020s Mobility you're baiting out these very
13022s few cooldowns and isolating disrupting
13024s then I think that isaki koku running
13026s this doomfist comp that's going to get
13028s them much better places than what we'll
13029s see from the sigma
13031s I I'm tempted to agree I think there is
13034s potential for the doomfist composition
13035s to be the stronger one I firmly believe
13037s that if played well it is the best
13039s composition out there right now but the
13042s problem is yeah there is a lot of margin
13043s for error there's a lot of things that
13045s can be punished especially the
13047s vulnerability that is your backline or
13049s any situation in which your doomfist
13050s loses losos of of the backline and the
13054s teams that have been practicing that
13056s this composition understand that quite
13058s well and they know how to play around
13059s that and I think that's what makes it
13061s dangerous going up against a team like a
13063s Michael wave or indeed now A Team like
13065s an anaraki X10 Goku who is I mean if
13068s they make it into playoffs they're going
13070s to be another one of those threats one
13072s of those looming threats that has the
13074s knowledge to play the doomfist
13075s composition
13076s effectively there's so few in out of the
13079s so when you see a team like that you
13081s need to be
13082s scared and the rest they're sticking on
13086s they're going to be more consistent with
13087s that what else is consistent is kuna
13089s knocking the head off of Gino and a
13092s beautiful thing to see from inaki Goku
13094s there's not really anyone from time
13096s Celestial that's going to contest The
13097s High Ground so Gino takes a completely
13099s different
13101s approach it's it's not entirely clean
13104s Blissful has to try and be the spearhead
13106s right now is Monarch isn't available to
13108s be just that Jingo has been sitting in
13110s spawn as the Widow this whole time and
13113s they weren't able to get a whole lot of
13114s purchase with it they do find that
13116s pickoff there but Monarch is back ESS
13118s Celestial they've taken some presence on
13119s the point but they've swapped their
13121s composition the doist of their own
13123s they've taken a bit of positioning here
13125s yeah you got now on The High Ground this
13128s they can come back in and contest they
13131s to do so that's exactly the plan coming
13133s on today but that bade on to Gom so
13136s incredibly low has to look for the mer
13138s and Orion a little bit of healing and
13140s just like that they're backing off that
13142s percentage has stopped ticking up and
13145s both teams they're waiting for the other
13146s to make a decisive move and it's once
13147s again kuna to strike first and Blitz
13150s will be DPS Duo has been ridiculous for
13153s their team coming up as soon as they we
13156s see these fights come to a stand still
13157s they're usually the ones to find the
13159s that was really really slow and
13161s methodical from both sides which is not
13163s something that you typically see when it
13164s comes to these doomfist versus doomfist
13166s compositions and time the celestial has
13168s decided no we're going to go back over
13170s onto the sigma but the backline isn't
13172s equipped to keep Sigma alive the same
13174s way that they're equipped to keep a
13176s doomfist alive so now they're playing it
13177s because they have the Nano boost in the
13178s rally but who do you use that on or do
13181s you even need it if Jingo just finds a
13182s kill yeah I mean Jingo getting that one
13185s off that's excellent and maybe a boost
13187s onto that can help a little bit further
13188s but the rest of the team they're locked
13190s up at the choken it has to be Jingo to
13192s keep these eliminations the power that
13195s noaki has they have all the ultimates to
13197s pull out and work with BL gets one and
13199s two cut down and time on Celestial that
13202s was their Prime opportunity but their
13203s competition once again is so slow inaki
13207s they have this doomfist again all these
13208s fastpac Heroes to just keep p it in
13211s never giving up never surrendering and
13213s what look like it would be the chance
13214s for them to work with time of celestial
13216s they're back at the choke everything
13218s that gingo found which was a fair bit
13220s the Timeless Celestial composition is
13222s just too slow to capitalize on it like
13223s you said and you know sure they're
13224s finding all this positioning on Statue
13226s they still have the threat of that Nano
13228s boost and that overclock out but they're
13230s going to go ahead and just kite it play
13232s back there we go there's a nano
13233s overclock and kuna is going to fall yep
13236s kuna is going to fall along with the
13238s rest minaki X to Goku here T Celestial
13242s that took them so much to break through
13244s the choke and it see it brings back to
13245s that question is the doomfist better in
13248s this scenario I mean I think in this
13250s scenario where ESS Celestial are very
13251s compositionally just in the weeds I
13253s would like to see the switch up here for
13256s from the backline like go onto the the B
13258s and the Lucio so you actually have the
13260s ability to play you know play something
13262s else or maybe switch gcha back over onto
13264s the doomfist it's it feels very
13266s discordant here where we are because we
13268s don't have to worry about the
13269s immortality field sure we kind of have
13271s to worry about the Sleep Dart but I mean
13273s if you sleep Dart a doomfist nine times
13275s out of 10 he's going to wake right back
13276s up and be really really cross about it
13278s so that doesn't really work out all that
13281s well like time of celestial they have to
13283s try and keep the momentum going leverage
13284s the angles with the sigma here and see
13285s if they can find something Jingo has
13287s been the master of finding something his
13289s team no but search too deep a little bit
13292s too deep more like way too deep that was
13294s three players that Jingo was trying to
13297s distract throughout that time and going
13299s down there don't have that same front
13301s line pressure as you said time Celestial
13303s they're in the weeds when it comes to
13304s compositions it has to be up to decisive
13307s booves make it happen you got them all
13308s bait hook and Zer within that small
13312s bookstore easy pickings for kop that
13314s graphitic flux massive I gravitic flux
13317s is just such a insanely valuable
13319s ultimate in Gara I'm showing exactly why
13321s right there they managed to bait
13323s everyone from in araki X10 Goku into
13325s that bookstore without even the abil
13327s like the use of a may they didn't even
13328s need a May W to do it they just bait
13330s them in there and then struck while the
13332s iron was hot and now they're at risk of
13334s capping here great accretion to put
13335s Monarch in check but Monarch has that
13337s meteor strike the meteor strike and
13340s likely a Nal boost coming out onto
13342s either themselves or a blissful should
13344s they even need it theal and now a blade
13347s to be more specific BL stunned back up
13349s wants to get the pita out and the BR
13352s Never Dies there we go finally gets the
13354s strike that they wanted to do so and
13356s inaki they're making it quick clean and
13358s simple using their resources the
13361s good use of the map geometry there from
13362s mer Blissful careful there
13366s almost that's uh that's a little bit
13368s unlucky I think blissville should be
13370s back in time before the fight kicks off
13371s and losing guard chomp there means
13372s Timeless Celestial is going to take a
13373s while to regroup that Dragon Blade
13376s almost didn't kill the brg in time to
13379s still be able to kill Orion as well so
13381s it was you know great play there from
13383s Mer but wasn't quite enough being able
13386s to find that backline is all you can
13387s really ask for a uh a nanoblade
13389s situation but n Zaki they're going to
13391s have to rely entirely on the's uh rally
13395s here coming up they don't have anything
13397s else the coer is running pretty dry and
13398s they've lost Monarch that's terrible you
13401s don't have much else to work with plus
13402s the nle bait all right that good old
13404s cherry on top getting that out in a
13406s fight that you are already set to lose
13408s is not bad at all for inaki T Goku the
13411s time bank is low and you only are going
13413s to be looking at a 2 minute
13415s defense we've got another gravitic flux
13417s coming out for Garchomp that rally for
13419s FES are already or not already finally
13423s uh about to come online and there could
13424s be a little bit of counterplay there but
13426s the timing on that is going to be a
13427s little bit dicey timel Celestial you
13429s know making uh making wine out of water
13431s with this composition so far that's a
13433s great accretion try and deny some of
13434s that High Ground presence take it for
13437s themselves and keep holding this corner
13438s don't allow inarizaki to get comfortably
13441s past this
13442s corner this is the best spot that you're
13444s going to have to hold on to and buy him
13446s shut down with the overclock beautiful
13449s for Timeless cel sh as long as they deal
13451s with jino they should be okay to get a
13453s nice stop we know how difficult that
13455s this little S curve of King Row the
13457s final to can
13460s be it's pretty clean for inaki I mean
13463s they utilize that rally but they still
13464s manage to hold on to the Nano boost that
13466s they're building up to they've got the
13467s meteor strike they've got the overclock
13469s they still have to worry about that
13471s gravitic flux but they're going to have
13473s a lot more to deal with it if they
13474s should need to I mean it'll probably
13476s Force out that meteor strike from
13477s Monarch but you take that trade gravitic
13480s flux is such a high value ultimate if
13481s you can bait that out and not know make
13484s it bloodless you take that wa or getting
13486s out open backl beautiful Boulder coming
13489s up through but this is exactly where
13490s Cuda want to be that's three that's far
13493s no 5K for you Cuda but a four piece plus
13496s n overclock not too bad in the eyes and
13499s it ends up being kind of a clean fight
13500s for Timeless Celestial they don't invest
13501s anything into that they kind of just you
13503s know fall over and die which is you know
13507s all you can really ask for when you're
13508s going with against the Nano overclock
13510s that's a ton of value coming out from
13511s that Old combo and you know and our Zaki
13513s X1 Goku now they only have the meteor
13515s strike so maybe Timeless Celestial can
13517s make something out of this the problem
13518s though is they're running out of time to
13520s do it 20 seconds on the clock this might
13522s be an overtime cap if a cap comes at
13525s all that's really going to be it you are
13528s it is an overtime cap there is no other
13530s option getting as far as you can that's
13532s got to be it s a Celestial they have all
13534s the ultimates in the world to work off
13535s of but being afraid of course of Monarch
13538s in your backline blisful coming up onto
13540s this Dragon Blane nothing's going to
13541s happen and B takes their time with this
13543s that's full supports down never
13545s committed to that meteor strike and lost
13547s two of those big tools to come on
13548s through suddenly an overtime push
13550s looking much more practical so Monarch
13553s wanted to go in and use the meteor
13554s strike offensively to try and take out
13555s the enemy backline but realized that
13557s their own backline was in danger and
13559s tried to go all the way back for it and
13561s that was a critical mistake because now
13562s the gratic flux comes out there's no
13564s tools that they can use to stop it
13566s Timeless Celestial continue to press
13568s their advantage they had all of the
13570s ultimate heading in to this final fight
13573s here on their own attack and have
13575s exploited them perfectly when you want
13577s to look at that was it sloppy yes but at
13581s the end of the day you made it to the
13582s finale of King's Row and have set the
13585s task out for Zaki to complete the map I
13588s I think that was holdable there I think
13590s Monarch fumbled the bag I think you
13591s commit to that meteor strike on the
13593s enemy backline you're probably going to
13595s lose your own they were definitely
13596s scared of Jingo and you know for how
13598s much of a threat Jingo has been on this
13600s Genji of course you would be but you
13602s don't have to peel all the way back
13604s bring your meteor strike from one end of
13606s the point to the other just to try and
13607s deal with that threat I I definitely
13610s think the better choice there was to try
13612s and keep the pressure up onto the enemy
13613s backline try and stop the followup that
13615s would inevitably come through because if
13617s Jingo builds with that Dragon Blade sure
13619s you kind of deal with that you take it
13621s as it comes you're gonna have your
13622s support ultimates when you come out of
13624s the spawn or any support abilities
13626s anything you can use it's it's very
13629s scary there that's a critical error
13631s there and Ian if we end up going into
13633s extra edings and and araki don't put
13635s time up on the bank on their attack I
13637s think they're going to be kicking
13638s themselves for that one and I mean it's
13641s hard right because inarizaki and Goku
13643s they looked so darn good throughout the
13646s majority of this map to just making
13648s these tiny little errors tripping over
13650s your own feet you could even say that
13652s it's what caused them in the long game
13654s Timeless Celestial are a team that will
13656s exploit your smallest weaknesses those
13659s tiniest things that they can can pick
13660s apart they'll flip it the script and
13662s turn it into something that they can
13664s work off of and that's really what we
13666s ended up seeing there on that third and
13668s final point you would have loved to see
13669s more of a defensive hold especially
13671s given how well inaki have looked thus
13674s far in this series and now they're
13677s they're in a spot that they need
13678s themselves to get that momentum up and
13680s going going to a map three here actually
13683s CB would isn't going to guarantee either
13685s one of these squads a top a spot within
13687s that top eight it's yeah it's uh it's
13690s really scary you know being being on
13693s this thin of a margin you know being
13695s trapped right in the middle of the
13696s standings where yeah you could make
13697s playoffs or you might be forced to sit
13700s on the sidelines and watch not get those
13702s circuit points and end up having to go
13703s through lcq if you ever want to see the
13705s light of day in Champs that's rough
13708s that's scary that's a lot of pressure
13709s and it feels like right there inar Zaki
13712s X10 Goku maybe cracked under the
13714s pressure second guess themselves when
13715s they really didn't need to and timel
13718s Celestial get that cap hand to them
13720s granted it is an overtime so you know
13723s it's not perfect there's still room for
13724s anaraki to come back if they're able to
13726s get the cap with over a minute that puts
13729s themselves back firmly in the driver's
13730s seat where it's either a win or Draw
13732s situation that Timeless Celestial wants
13734s no part of but Timeless Celestial
13737s they've set themselves up for Extra
13738s Innings you can't really ask for more
13740s with that narrow of a time bank no this
13743s is close right this is real real dang
13745s close even if Timeless get it full cap
13748s it's possible but it can't even be over
13750s minute so it's going to be down to the
13752s wire in this map and of course they're
13754s going to be sticking with that Sigma but
13756s again you look at that backline still
13758s Orion and the merer on the Anna and
13760s break themselves doesn't really have the
13762s pace to keep up like you said CB we'll
13765s have to see what these teams come out
13767s here with Timeless Celestial interesting
13770s that they're going with the Ana Bri and
13772s keeping the keeping the sigma I
13775s definitely feel like they should be
13776s going a little bit more in favor with
13778s you know what we've seen out of of the
13779s meta typically Azu maybe what uh that
13785s that should not have happened gar does
13787s not have that range where in the world
13789s was Azu positioned where that happened I
13791s mean you'll go ahead and take those any
13793s day of the week but now isaki to Goku
13796s that's just a almost a full 30 seconds
13798s bought off the clock yeah you will
13800s absolutely take that for free as
13802s Defenders here and you know time of
13803s celestial they can keep their positional
13804s Advantage keep the pressure up keep
13806s Garchomp up at that uh up at that choke
13808s lead even more time off the clock
13811s here yeah that's that's just a critical
13813s mistake you don't want to make and I
13815s mean that's going to start to mount up
13817s if we keep seeing those critical erors
13818s coming up from
13820s anaraki no you can't have that as we've
13822s said before the doomfist comp is great
13824s when you're all working together it it's
13826s very easy to do things wrong on that
13828s biggy that Jingo finding themselves in a
13830s bit of a tricky situation has the dash
13832s to get out but just barely this
13835s positioning from Orion it's not going to
13836s last much longer now that they know
13838s exactly where they are position that
13840s inaki they want to go in but F goes down
13843s first inaki somehow they're losing their
13845s supports because Garo does marches
13847s straight towards them and and it's also
13849s a huge bionade from Orion from way up
13851s there on high that ends up setting that
13853s up and the follow through damage that
13854s does come through from both Jingo and
13856s guard chomp to close that one out and
13857s there's not really a way that they can
13859s effectively dislodge Orion up there so
13861s it's a great play for to keep for them
13863s to keep the Anna up on The High Ground
13865s there you're going to be looking at Kuna
13866s to maybe try and pressure the Anna out
13868s or maybe blissful to go in with a dash
13871s but at that point you're committed if
13873s you go in with that cool down you can't
13875s like you're at risk of falling to an
13876s accretion you're at risk of baiting out
13877s cool Downs yourself you got to go in as
13879s a
13880s collective and they've been yet to do
13882s that so far now just Dash in by
13885s themselves get so dang low and has to go
13888s out to be feel in here aaki they're so
13890s split and uncoordinated this is so
13892s strange considering how well they've
13894s appeared to be synergized in this past
13896s couple of maps yeah it's it it feels
13898s like the wheels might be falling off
13900s here but there's still time for them to
13901s come up with something Blissful may have
13903s just found it but they can't confirm the
13905s kill onto Jingo and I mean we're still
13907s position kind of all over the place for
13908s naraki but we're still alive and that's
13911s something there we go they're inching
13912s forward step after step and with a Nal
13914s boost built up that is how you break an
13917s entry smashing the door to bit even just
13920s BP and a small room elimination would be
13923s great sure but if there's a Nal unleash
13925s on your back line it doesn't even matter
13926s if the take is alive or not triple kill
13929s for the Genji looking for even more and
13931s what looks so good in Zaki and Goku they
13934s still appear to be crumbling under the
13935s pressure they they look so lost right
13937s now they have no access to Orion the
13939s only time that they're able to get
13940s access to the backline yeah they find
13942s the pick up there onto uh onto Bion but
13944s the nanoade still comes out there's
13946s nothing they can do about it they don't
13947s have the ults cuz they haven't gotten
13948s enough work done ults are now starting
13950s to come online there's the Dragon Blade
13952s but there's no Nano it's a naked blade
13954s and yep just a shield bash away this
13956s Blade's going to find nothing that's it
13958s and bful thankfully gets to keep their
13960s life for the sake of isaki but you're
13962s looking at a graffic flux and an
13964s overclock on the side of Timeless
13966s Celestial and it's only going to take
13967s one of those things the shot Sho down
13969s it's going to be Bion hit that first
13971s shot everyone else is stuck up in the
13973s sky even if Gom may not get that certain
13976s value this is still final flight and
13977s that was five ultimates in the past two
13980s from inner isaki yeah rally overclock
13984s and Dragon Blade all invested and you
13986s don't get squad for it they're going to
13988s make some compositional swap they're
13989s swapping over onto the sigma this is a
13991s more traditional composition but this
13993s feels too little too late they're not
13994s going to have any time to build up to
13996s anything their only real hope here is if
13998s Bliss gets a big wall onto Garchomp
14001s oruna finds some sort of pick somewhere
14004s one of those two things needs to happen
14005s or this is game over and we go to map
14008s three the main was already placed out
14010s onto the spuna there we go magic pickoff
14013s they need to go toward a second for Cuda
14015s maybe the composition Swap all that they
14017s needed fora to finally have the support
14020s to land and charge these shots
14022s necessarily inasaki Against All Odds
14025s squeak their way past the first point of
14027s King ideally this should force swaps out
14029s from Timeless Celestial because now in
14031s araki X and Goku just have a firm
14033s compositional Advantage they're able to
14034s find the pickoffs on tuna and yeah you
14036s can see ESS Celestial they're going to
14037s pull out a May of their own I imagine
14039s we're going to see mer or Orion swap
14041s eventually maybe they feel like they're
14043s too close to their ults to do so and
14044s they know they don't want to go back and
14046s stagger and waste time so I would I you
14048s know try and build to a nano throw it
14050s out win a fight swap to the Baptist
14052s otherwise in araki X10 Goku they should
14054s just win off the you know off the
14056s compositional advantage and off the
14057s snowball from capping that first
14060s point they they have the ultimate
14062s Advantage right nowo recently swapped on
14065s over and even the support line now it's
14067s going to be much more of a problem for
14068s Timeless Celestial not having the speed
14070s and this nle it's got to be worth it for
14072s Ryan that's your reasoning for sticking
14074s onto the support composition it needs to
14077s do something the bionade of course is
14078s nice to look at purple certainly my
14080s favorite color but it's not enough time
14083s to do enough damage and The Bash into
14085s the backline H Celestial they're playing
14087s fully on The High Ground right now the
14090s dive attempt coming on in just strange
14092s to say look at the only person who's
14094s practically contesting them is going to
14096s be kuna and the rest of them just get
14097s beaten up on the low I mean that's a
14100s pretty good fight for Timeless Celestial
14101s being able to win that off of just the
14103s rally I me I still would like to see
14106s compositional swaps here but you have a
14107s pretty beefy old bank to match Zak X10
14110s Goku's here I think this next fight is
14112s going to determine just about everything
14113s and with only a minute left it very well
14115s might be we've got a flux for a flux a
14117s blizzard for a blizzard potential
14119s dueling overclocks and a nano for a beat
14122s who's it going to be is the is the Pain
14125s Train going to keep going isn't already
14126s Zach X1 Goku going to keep marching
14127s forward to do Timeless Celestial put a
14129s halt to it right
14131s now starting us off both sides gingo
14134s versus Blitz and it's Blitz that shall
14136s be falling the players Frozen up on
14139s either end but having this gratic flux
14141s that's going to be the name of the game
14142s but it's slipped Monarch takes a thatp
14144s mid FL L that you want to see from your
14147s tank player and now time of celestial
14149s they're wiping the floor clean of aizaki
14152s and Goku 20 seconds to get a contest and
14155s nothing to work with it's going to be
14157s entirely neutral unless mer is able to
14159s build up to a rally or Azu is able to
14161s build up to an ant Matrix but you're not
14163s going to have a positional Advantage
14164s where you can use that ant Matrix
14165s effectively kuna nearly dies just even
14167s trying to get in I don't even know if
14169s there's going to be a touch that comes
14171s through with the May walls coming in no
14173s and and Goku they can't touch and
14175s Timeless Celestial take us to a map
14178s three oh Baby Stevie we knew it was
14181s coming it is a map three coming our way
14185s wouldn't have it any other chance I this
14189s was wonderful this is what the change of
14190s pace that we wanted to see our chop
14193s going over to this Sigma they took
14194s advantage of the sloppiness that we saw
14197s from inaki and it was something that
14198s they never never could recover from
14200s after that small time bank they made the
14203s proper Swap sure but with the small like
14206s what maybe like two minutes max that
14208s they had on that Sigma composition is
14210s not nearly enough to force the good
14212s fights to actually take and just
14214s suffered by pure compositional diff and
14216s towards the tail end there you know I
14218s highlighted how great of a sigma player
14219s Garchomp has been in the past they
14221s showed a lot of discipline as well when
14222s it came to utilizing that gravitic flux
14224s we came into that situation where it was
14226s nearly identical old Banks across the
14228s board but on one side you had a Lucio B
14230s and the Lucio had a sound barrier on the
14232s other side you had an anab Bri that had
14234s nothing that sound barrier very well
14236s could have turned it for an araki X10
14238s Goku but that got forced out and G chop
14240s waited until that over Health had
14242s depleted before letting the gravitic
14244s flux rip and there was nothing left to
14247s try and weather that storm because it
14248s had all been used to try and keep
14250s everybody alive throughout the blizzard
14252s and I don't even know how Timeless
14254s Celestial were able to withstand the
14256s blizzard that came out from the other
14257s side but they did and because they did
14259s and because guard chomp waited for the
14262s exact right moment to pop that gravitic
14264s flux even if it didn't look flashy it
14266s was clutch it was key and it helped seal
14269s the win and we're going to a map number
14273s three yep that's it this is the series
14275s that it's going to go to a map three
14277s qualification for the top playoff
14280s bracket is on the line right now maybe
14283s it's not a guarantee since we're going
14284s to game three CB but it's exactly where
14287s these squads want to do time of sesal so
14289s they are not going down without a fight
14291s they're keeping themselves in it all the
14293s way to flas point unfortunately no
14295s matter how much of a fight you put up
14297s one of these two teams is going to go
14300s down and the other very well may have
14302s punched a ticket to playoffs but we'll
14304s have to see I bet there is going to be a
14306s fight and it's going to be a bloody one
14308s potentially five fights because we're
14310s going to be taking it to flas point
14313s we'll have to see which map they end up
14315s choosing new junk City or surasa I
14317s suspect surasa because uh you know that
14320s does favor the doomfist composition a
14322s little bit more and verar Zaki X10 Goku
14325s having the advantage yeah it is going to
14327s be surasa I think of the two that's
14329s definitely the one that you go with here
14331s yeah as you said much better for that
14334s doomfist of course the sigma is an
14336s option but if if you don't get set up
14338s you're not getting anywhere that's kind
14340s of where you're sitting right is I I I
14342s mentioned this a little bit earlier too
14344s is like when you're running this
14344s doomfist comp you're running it with
14346s more mobile heroes and those more mobile
14349s Heroes allow you to take more fights you
14351s have greater uptime in the battle so as
14354s you're looking at a sigma composition
14356s you have slower you have less
14357s opportunities to work with and
14359s especially when you need to be on an
14360s objective for a certain amount of time
14362s the ability to stall out move quick is
14365s just so dang good especially on Sasa I
14369s do also kind of like the composition you
14370s know I I I kept calling for
14371s compositional swaps uh out of the side
14374s of Timeless Celestial in the previous
14375s game I do also kind of like though that
14378s as long as the doomfist is out they're
14380s not really going with the May because
14381s the window to try and find one of those
14383s good walls was that a pun I don't I
14385s don't I don't even know to find a good
14387s wall on an enemy doomfist is very very
14389s narrow you're not going to find those
14391s all too often so going for something
14392s that can harass his backline and
14394s something that can you know be a little
14396s bit of a constant nuisance make him a
14397s little bit less comfortable give less
14400s access to that enemy backline with the
14402s Genji I kind of like that against the
14404s doomfist and I do kind of like that
14406s timel Celestial identified that I still
14408s feel like there's uh you know some value
14410s to the Bap Lucio but if they're going to
14411s go that way that is a great way that
14413s they can find some value with that onor
14415s break back back line and sorry aor break
14418s backline and you still still run the
14421s sigma composition against the doomfist
14423s just to kind of play into into guard
14425s chomp strengths here but I mean speaking
14427s of strengths these are two very strong
14430s teams and it's going to be a shame if we
14431s don't get to see one of them in playoffs
14434s on one side we've got Monarch and the
14435s Gang looking to etch themselves as the
14437s new Kings here on the other side
14440s Timeless Celestial looking to write
14442s their name in The Stars if you want to
14444s do either of those two things you got to
14446s get to playoffs and you got to win here
14448s on surasa to make that happen andak next
14452s to Goku this is their chance this this
14455s is their chance to make that name for
14457s themselves and get to the playoffs have
14459s a shot at claiming these points and cash
14462s prizes and everything else that goes
14464s along with it courtesy of be quiet so
14468s this map this map is everything for them
14470s it's everything for Timeless Celestial
14472s to have that opportunity to continue
14474s their composition we know these players
14476s we love them and for them to end their
14478s Journey here is one that's something
14480s that they do not take lightly this will
14482s be going all steam ahead when it comes
14486s to this map of Sasa rolling out on
14489s Market not going to say anything about
14491s compositions until these Gates truly
14493s open but let's just say things are
14494s cooking in the kitchen have we finally
14496s learned our lesson to not try and
14498s predict predict what's going to happen
14499s based on attacker spawns when
14501s everybody's still in the spawn room
14503s watch them keep it though I will
14504s honestly I'm here for it do they keep it
14506s yeah there's no shot in AR STI with a
14508s ball comp I would there's no shot yeah
14510s they're going to swap back over to that
14512s dive comp Timeless Celestial though this
14514s is interesting they're going with the
14515s traditional uh Sigma composition but
14517s they are forsaking the May in favor of
14519s the Genji but the Genji is not going to
14521s have as good a healing with the Bap
14523s Lucio as he would like to when you have
14525s like a brg that can constantly D throw
14527s you packs or an Anna that can spare a
14529s heal shot here and there so in a time of
14531s celestial they're going to get the first
14532s uh you know first positioning here but
14534s Monarch with a slam looking to take that
14536s away Monarch with a slam Monarch
14539s slamming to the ground 6 fet under to be
14541s more exact Timeless Celestial them
14544s switching over to this this support
14546s composition I think that's actually a
14547s very good decision for them when you see
14549s where Orion is now much safer to be able
14551s to play and that's going to you know
14553s kind of force like some sort of
14554s compositional uh you know misplay here
14556s where someone's going to have to try and
14557s dedicate themselves to dislodging Orion
14559s up there and there's not really anybody
14561s on in Zari Zaki X Goku that can
14563s realistically do that say for maybe kuna
14565s but you have to try and invest that
14567s slide there Monarch could do it if he
14569s wasn't de Monarch's the first one to go
14571s down a second time in a row Jingo is
14574s doing a very similar thing just taking
14575s advantage of the damage the team go as
14577s they're call out low then guess what
14578s slice dce shk into the face goodbye inar
14582s Monarch they're going to go ahead and
14583s swap over onto the sigma here so I don't
14586s feel like they think they're getting as
14588s much value out of the doomfist as they
14589s would have liked to we saw this same
14591s compositional swap coming out from them
14593s towards the end of King's Row but it was
14594s too little too late I think they've just
14596s decided you know we better not wait
14598s until the last possible second to make
14600s this Swap and we should match this now
14602s so now we are back where Timeless
14604s Celestial are going to be at a
14605s disadvantage the Genji for the May and
14607s this composition the May should get more
14609s value in theory yes but it depends on
14612s can anybody stop Jingo you don't really
14614s have that Genji to kind of chase after
14616s them and that's going to give timeless
14618s feel a bit of an advantage here they
14620s have been on this composition for quite
14622s some time that inaki and Goku it's going
14624s to take them so long to catch up I mean
14626s and that's entirely clean from time to
14628s Celestial they use the ant Matrix and
14629s yeah sure it does get walled off but
14631s really who cares because you know you
14633s still get to hold on to everything else
14634s Under the Sun you're going to have a
14635s blade you're going to have a flux and
14637s araki X10 Goku yeah they made all those
14639s compositional swaps so they are not even
14641s in the same zip code as any of those
14643s ultimates right now there's a blizzard
14644s that might come up eventually but by the
14647s time that's up time should have already
14649s won this next fight between both blade
14652s flux hopefully only one of the two that
14655s s immortality going on out nice boo to
14657s keep back and it ends up working out
14660s defensive immortality field thrown on in
14663s be Blissful the fall off the black and
14664s the blade itself doesn't do too much but
14667s jino perfectly capable on their own the
14669s Genji today have all been phenomenal you
14671s know we saw Zoe earlier Jingo is
14674s definitely going to be in that
14675s conversation especially if timeo
14677s Celestial walk away with the Dub here
14679s and just like I said the blizzard is now
14681s online for narak X10 Goku they have a
14683s lot of ultimates online sure but in the
14685s time it took them to build them Timeless
14686s Celestial they've already won the fight
14687s they're already taking it up and they've
14689s got plenty in the coffers to deal with
14691s anything in our Zak ex and Goku can
14693s throw at them they've got the beat
14694s they've got the flux they've got an
14695s overclock of their own how do you
14697s approach if how do you approach this if
14699s you're narazaki
14701s narazaki right now they have four
14703s ultimates make that five as a matter of
14705s fact if they can just live through this
14706s gravic block then they're going to okay
14709s CH out the and maybe the M on it is
14711s absolutely wonderful they gate a lot of
14713s this damage so time Celestial they're
14715s still in investing two of their big
14717s ultimates maybe it's a what four for two
14720s trade but as long asaki can start to get
14722s some of that momentum back on their
14724s shoulders fine but the mow picks up two
14726s they no they can't lose the C they can't
14728s they use four ultimates and still go
14731s down this is unacceptable that is a a
14733s hero play from the mer there so naraki X
14736s and Goku even if they had lost that
14737s fight as as long as they got the flip
14739s they would have been sitting pretty
14740s there and there was a couple players
14741s that were sat back trying to make that
14743s happen mer goes and deals with them
14745s themselves and just dispatches them 2V1
14748s takes him down and now time of celestial
14751s yeah like you said they made an araki ex
14753s and Goku invest all those ult into the
14754s fight and still not even win it and now
14757s look at Jingo got another blade and we
14759s got dueling overclocks on either side
14760s but time of celestial they're already in
14762s position they're already letting it rip
14764s and speed they're going on in B knocking
14766s down these shields s they're not going
14768s to get anywhere near this objective for
14770s the first capture and that in on itself
14773s is enough for testial to be able to work
14776s off of unless kuna can find an
14778s opportunity to strike on back from the
14780s highw may put in their face chop trying
14782s to sneak on away but the space graa two
14784s slow float away from bis's Ice Beam the
14788s brave went in two from gingo all right
14790s time of celestial that is not what you
14792s wanted to get out of your DPS ALS and it
14794s allows inaki to come back in in a fight
14796s that they arguably should not have won
14798s that's the value of the May that's why
14800s you're going to see Jingo make the swap
14802s over onto the May after investing that
14803s uh that Dragon Blade that's great play
14805s there but it's bliss's wall that ends up
14807s winning that fight for naraki the the
14809s fight was taken so far up by ESS
14811s Celestial that when that overclock came
14813s out they knew they had to K it and they
14814s kite themselves right back to the point
14816s but guard Cho gets split off and now
14818s here comes the blizzard blank the sneaky
14820s Blizzard from behind that's on from
14821s Blissful it gets onto Garchomp plenty
14824s the tank out of the way the rest isaki
14827s is free to push up and just grab these
14829s eliminations making them easy bolstering
14831s their
14834s ulate nice uh nice little accretion
14836s there kuna going to go and snag the kill
14838s there and now in araki bre they can
14840s breathe a size a sigh of relief as they
14842s can finally you sit a little bit
14844s comfortable get themselves set up that
14846s was a great blizzard there from Blissful
14847s they take down guard chomp and that's
14849s what you want to do that's the value
14850s with the m you either use the wall or
14852s use the blizzard whatever you can to
14854s section off the enemy Sigma and and now
14856s guard chomp they can't even really find
14858s a way in that ant Matrix is just going
14860s to buy time time celes have to kite it
14862s around there might be a touch from the
14863s Mer but no there's too much pressure
14865s that's anak ex and gokou taking the
14867s point w I was just about to say that
14869s inaki they're going to have to reverse
14870s sweep this map but the fact that they
14872s denied that last fight all together is
14876s massive for them they get to hold on
14878s those will be back up in no time and
14881s it's just going to be a matter of can
14882s they get to that next Point Orion uses
14884s the Atrix so early just to prevent them
14886s from rotating I mean yeah that's an
14889s ultimate down in the drain I mean you do
14890s have the positional Advantage if your
14892s Timeless Celestial the point is behind
14893s where they're positioned right now
14894s they're going to take first capture on
14896s it but now you got some ult from manari
14898s Zaki that you're going to have to worry
14899s about and here comes the first one yep
14901s blocks going on out not willing to keep
14903s their head around the corner the
14904s morality field though still in play you
14906s didn't get a key cool down out of the
14908s picture and even then you still end up
14910s losing out on Cho this is what I'm
14911s talking about with that positioning kuna
14913s is always on this off angle ready to
14915s fire those shots at anybody who is UNS
14918s expecting I mean that that ends up being
14921s an okay fight for Timeless Celestial cuz
14923s in araki yeah they invest that gravitic
14925s flux you don't invest anything you're
14926s going to have nearly a Full House of
14928s ultimates here but I mean inarizaki
14930s they're not completely without a tool
14932s themselves they're going to have another
14933s blizzard Stone they're going to have an
14934s overclock as long as they don't let
14936s Jingo get value with their blizzard
14938s first and our Zaki ex and Goku should be
14940s sitting pretty here on this point and
14941s might be looking to tie things up ends
14944s now I mean they're vibing right now Zion
14946s opening is up with the overclock nice
14948s slowing down a little bit of that
14949s progress but a on the other side jino
14951s loock players into place committed that
14955s sound barrier that's not going to be
14956s enough to keep your tank alive and and
14958s this is a heavy heavy investment kku and
14962s the hard part with this too is that you
14964s just don't have the time to turn this
14966s one back around that's two big old down
14968s the drain it's a heavy investment but I
14970s think it's worth it they really really
14972s wanted to keep Monarch alive and if they
14974s were able to keep them alive that would
14975s have you know kept them in the fight
14977s long enough to maybe build up to that
14978s blizzard but it just wasn't in the cards
14980s there was too much Focus fire the wall
14982s the blizzard the just about everything
14984s you could have asked for on the side of
14986s Timeless Celestial and guard chop gets
14988s to hold on to their gravitic flux now so
14990s if you're narak ex and Goku you got to
14992s try and take a fight and you got to get
14993s that ultimate out no matter what and
14995s hopefully take another fight after that
14997s you don't really have an answer to this
14999s gravitic clux so jom can just initiate
15001s it whenever that they would like to i'
15004s really getting the immortality out of
15005s the way to find Value but holding angles
15008s is rather risky Monarch's going to have
15009s one on their own and the ball no sound
15012s barrier in sight either comound this up
15014s with the Buzzard as well just double the
15016s damage the deadliness that this is going
15018s to have somehow someway The Shield of
15021s Tom man just to keep them alive the
15023s point flip back over araki they're the
15025s ones that are pushing those double keys
15027s don't even know how to back up because
15029s they don't need to 95% and Counting CV
15032s they're looking on the brink of a
15033s reverse sweep of this map I mean it it
15036s all has to come down to this that's a
15038s great gravitic flux forar to open that
15040s fight up by the way very sneaky to use
15041s the fly to go around the backside where
15043s Timeless Celestial were not looking
15045s guard Chom didn't get the chance to use
15047s there so they still have it but I mean
15049s if you're in arak ex Goku you need to
15051s make that change you need to make that
15053s investment you need to make that happen
15054s to keep yourself in this fight get
15056s yourself the early position on Gardens
15058s here this is where it's all going to
15060s come down to one of these teams could be
15062s playoff bound the other may very well be
15064s going home who's it going to be
15068s Celestial blocks coming on
15071s Up of a valley immortality field forced
15073s out and narazaki they were grouping
15076s behind Matrix can easily Force out
15079s players like who was just stuck out in
15081s no man land working on magic on the May
15085s as always that's what we're talking
15086s about the May versus the ski here
15088s especially in points like this DB it's
15089s going to be all the difference I I've
15091s actually only just now realized that
15092s tyless Celestial made that swap back to
15094s the Genji like that's I don't like that
15096s I don't agree with that you're giving up
15099s so much value if you're not running the
15101s May in this miror composition because
15102s you can't section off the enemy tank you
15104s can't get you know deny the enemy and
15106s matrixes you just have to kite your
15108s whole deal is you know you try to harass
15110s the enemy backline but you're
15111s susceptible to a cre you're susceptible
15113s to the may freeze you're going to be
15115s susceptible to an overclock coming
15117s outa beautiful head shot did J goes down
15121s and like that's the thing you don't have
15123s the may could take that just saying and
15125s right now inaki and Goku they're looking
15127s down the barrel of one more fight to
15130s complete this map one more fight the ult
15132s advantage is in favor of time of
15134s celestial sure but I mean one pick could
15136s just nullify that entirely I'm looking
15138s at Jingo to try and come up on that
15140s Dragon Blade make this Genji pick worth
15143s something Bion going to pop the
15144s overclock is it going to find anything
15147s it has to there can't be a question it
15149s has to find something right now to
15151s Celestial there on their last Li and
15152s they're not going to have jino blade is
15154s down it's only support ultimates to be
15156s able to go with the Blissful that's the
15158s blizzard it's getting Frosty out here we
15160s know it's getting close to winter and it
15162s might as well be one Timeless Celestial
15164s they are falling one after One Nails the
15167s coffin shut and the reverse sweep to
15169s come back on Ser of faki Goku move on
15175s Timeless Celestial look to etch their
15177s names in the stars but inarizaki X10
15179s Goku Spike them right back down to earth
15182s and Blissful really really shows the
15184s value of this m pick I don't agree with
15188s gingo swapping off of the May over onto
15190s the Genji I mean they may have been able
15192s to make it work you know timeo Celestial
15194s could have maybe gotten some value out
15195s of it but be falling before that Dragon
15197s Blade comes up is crucial and Blissful
15200s living to get the blizzard is the final
15202s death nail in the coffin and that might
15205s be the entire tournament run put to bed
15207s for Timeless Celestial it was a great
15209s fight they looked phenomenal on Kings
15211s Row they looked clean but in our isaki
15213s X10 Goku they bounc back and they they
15216s look interesting they're going to be an
15218s interesting team to follow here
15220s potentially very scary interesting as a
15222s word to put it but we know who they are
15224s we know that this is a team that you
15226s want to keep an eye on because of their
15228s level of unpredictability they're one of
15230s those squads that can look good on
15232s either one of these compositions and
15233s that is going to be one of their strong
15235s points as we look forward to seeing them
15237s potentially qualify for those playoffs
15239s of course we're not going to know that
15240s final Swiss stage until all of these
15242s teams wrap up their matches and get a
15245s better idea of that after this break but
15248s before we look at that we want to see
15249s what really went on in this final this
15252s final map that we kind of saw here Jingo
15254s again an excellent Genji player we don't
15256s doubt that at all but the value that's
15258s being lost between the May between the
15260s Genji it's enough to turn an entire map
15263s and lose an entire Series yeah and it's
15266s just kind of this compositional thing I
15268s don't think Genji and sigma work all
15271s that well together I like especially
15273s going up against an enemy Sigma anim if
15275s you're playing against the doomfist
15276s composition sure cuz you're not going to
15278s get as much value out of the M you want
15280s to try and put some pressure onto
15281s doomfist backline but against the sigma
15283s composition that's going to be playing
15284s this tightly that you're going to have
15286s you know a Lucio a Baptist an
15287s immortality field you have to you have
15289s to go against you're going to have the
15290s the boobs coming out from the the Lucio
15293s in the entire time your backline doesn't
15295s have access to heal you to try and keep
15297s that pressure up they don't care about
15298s you they don't you are Genji we don't
15301s care we don't even need to deal with you
15304s you know even at Genji as strong as
15305s Jingo couldn't get as much value and I
15308s think that is a compositional misstep
15310s that happened from Timeless Celestial at
15311s the absolute worst time and an araki X10
15315s Goku are able to reap the benefits that
15318s has been a uh a phenomenal game a lot of
15321s back and forth and a new name that we
15324s might need to keep on the tip of our
15325s tongues as we go into next weekend and
15327s our Zaki X10 Goku very mer well H may
15331s very well have punched their ticket to
15333s the playoffs we're going to have to see
15335s how things shake out we'll take a look
15336s at that as as well as have archip pootle
15339s MVP and real talk interview on the other
15341s side of this break chat don't go
15343s anywhere we'll see you on the on the
15344s other
15348s [Music]
15366s side
15369s [Music]
15399s [Music]
15412s [Music]
15448s [Music]
15462s [Music]
15465s [Applause]
15467s [Music]
15501s [Music]
15539s welcome back everybody I hope you guys
15541s all took a deep breath cuz I know I had
15543s to that was a very tense moment there
15545s it's not often that it comes down to the
15547s last point on flash point on the last
15550s map of the series for it to be decided
15552s and when you're in that kind of
15553s situation there's a lot of pressure on
15555s your backs and anaraki X10 Goku did show
15558s that they can bounce back from that
15559s pressure and at the Forefront of that is
15562s going to be ar Chipotle MVP can you
15564s guess it's
15565s kuna kuna coming in big throughout the
15570s series on the so the amount of fights
15572s that they were able to open up just by
15574s snagging an elimination hitting a rail
15576s shot allowing Blissful or their tank on
15579s Monarch to engage was absolutely massive
15582s they had a such a big impact on the
15584s overall series and are welld deserving
15587s for pootle
15588s MVP and like I've you know said time and
15591s time again you know the the sigma
15592s composition one of the things that
15594s forces the transition from the Poke comp
15596s or the Poke style into the raw style is
15598s when you find an opening pickoff as a
15600s soier and Kuno was doing more than just
15602s that was sometimes even being a dive
15604s sojourn you know with the help of a nano
15606s boost you take that but when you're able
15607s to find opening pickoffs like this time
15609s and time again other teams they can't
15612s safely transition they can't comfortably
15614s transition into the brawl style that the
15616s way that they want to when you got a
15617s so's lethal is kuna it's impossible it's
15621s just impossible to ever sit comfortable
15623s you're gonna be worried about poking
15624s your head up behind every corner because
15626s kuna very well might be lurking and
15628s might be looking to take that head clean
15630s off we have kuna here for an interview
15633s hello welcome congratulations on the win
15637s how are you feeling thank you I'm
15639s feeling great excited shaky all the
15645s above a little a little shaky okay this
15647s first question might make you feel a
15649s little bit nervous but it might be a
15651s little bit tight we're still working out
15653s the playoff or the uh the playoff
15654s standings to see who's in the top eight
15656s four and two do you think you guys did
15658s enough do you think you
15659s qualified uh I hope
15662s so all those hours
15665s SC
15668s see that's 100% Fair especially with
15670s with that map coming on through that was
15671s a very close series that you guys had to
15673s fight through and especially after we
15675s saw those two first two rounds I'm not
15676s going to lie to you I thought it was
15677s done I thought it was J after that and
15680s it's like ERS were looking so good but
15681s you guys made the swap to that Sigma
15683s composition which I kind of want to talk
15685s about because you guys are one of those
15686s teams that CB and I really like to see
15689s because you have the ability to both
15690s pull out kind of this doomfist this dive
15692s and also that hybrid style with the
15694s sigma is that something have you been
15696s practicing both of them have been
15697s leading into one more than the other
15698s what's that look like so we've only been
15702s practicing Doom comp like exclusively
15704s scrimming Doom comp on every map
15706s regardless but we came into the match
15708s today after our last match versus the
15710s other Timeless team and we kind of came
15712s to the conclusion that on certain points
15713s in certain Maps especially on that last
15715s flash point serasa that it's impossible
15718s sometimes to get our doomfist set up in
15720s time and our backline setup so we
15722s decided let's just go Sig count and
15724s mirror
15725s it and honestly hey you guys looked
15728s great for not practicing that really at
15730s all we would not have guessed that
15732s whatsoever and it it was really great to
15734s see you kuna especially shine on that
15737s soier in particular and uh I kind of
15739s want to ask you can you walk us through
15741s kind of what your journey is to get
15742s yourself to calling all heroes on this
15744s stage
15746s today so I I mean I used to play a lot
15749s back in OverWatch one but then I kind of
15752s I kind of quit and took a break for a
15753s while and I came back for the released
15755s OverWatch 2 and I joined a team called
15756s Neco Cafe and got like a top 16 prum
15759s Open qualifier and then um I heard about
15763s Kongo Heroes and I then applied and
15766s joined my team with friends that I
15767s previously played in open divisions and
15769s stuff like that and we decided to form a
15771s team and play in Callo Heroes and just
15773s try our
15774s best I your best definitely seems to be
15777s pretty damn good your it's paying
15779s dividends so far it's been a it's been
15780s great to get to see you guys playing I I
15783s we definitely haven't seen the last view
15785s I shouldn't say definitely we're still
15787s working out the Swiss standings but
15788s let's assume right let's go ahead and
15789s assume that you guys did make playoffs
15791s CU I'm feeling pretty good about that
15792s right do you have a message you want to
15794s you want to send to any of the other
15795s teams that might have made it are you
15796s coming for them you coming for their
15799s titles well we're gonna try our best you
15801s know I like to stay
15802s humble but definitely gonna shoot for as
15805s many wins as I can
15808s get keep playing like this and you
15810s probably net at least a good few more I
15812s I I I believe in that all right
15814s congratulations on being archip MVP this
15817s has been the Chipotle Real Talk
15819s interview but I got one more question
15821s for you before we send you off I think
15822s chat knows what's coming what is your
15825s Chipotle
15827s order so it depends when I'm on a cut I
15830s get a Chipotle bowl with chicken
15833s rice pinto beans I
15837s get light lettuce and light cheese and
15840s then if I not really care at all I get a
15842s burrito but the same thing but a
15844s burrito if I yeah if I if I don't care
15847s whatever I'm not cutting whatever yeah
15849s give me the carbs I don't care that
15851s burrito I got to say yeah the chicken
15852s burrito bowl that's my go-to as well we
15854s are kin we are one I love to hear it
15856s well thank you very much for sharing
15859s that with all of us thank you so much
15861s for joining us for the Chipotle Real
15863s Talk interview and congratulations again
15864s on being our MVP thank you so much
15867s thanks for having
15870s me well that uh that should just about
15874s conclude it uh We've uh you know we've
15876s had a pretty a pretty spicy day a pretty
15879s spicy day where all of our games I mean
15881s even the ones that weren't two's or that
15883s I did we have a two at the top I don't
15885s even remember was our first M okay it
15888s didn't feel like it at all it felt like
15889s we had three you know map threes that
15892s all went the distance and and and
15894s honestly might has well been that way
15896s today and you know that that's what
15898s happens when you get to these later
15899s points in the Swiss stage is that you're
15902s matched up with opponents that have the
15904s same record of you and eventually you're
15905s going to get to a spot where you're on
15908s the same skill level right and you're
15910s battling back and forth to get within
15912s that top eight which hopefully we'll be
15915s able to announce for us later here
15916s tonight but before we get there we want
15918s to highlight some of our individuals
15920s some stars from the day and and kind of
15923s some of the big plays that we've really
15924s seen CV uh and speaking of big plays
15928s let's go for the be quiet play perhaps
15931s the uh you know the biggest play of them
15933s all that sleep Dart there onto Zoe
15935s nearly resulting in her death I am very
15937s surprised that that didn't happen
15939s there's a lot of a lot of support play
15941s going on here the sleep is one thing
15944s five HP is as low as it gets there and
15947s then the support to help keep Zoe alive
15951s so every support in the game really
15954s really popped off that one I mean that's
15956s what it's all about you know we we're
15958s not always the flashiest we don't always
15960s make the biggest plays but according to
15961s Twitter we the most overpowered role and
15963s maybe that's why maybe that's why
15965s supports get so black is because we made
15967s sure that that Genji did not die but uh
15971s you know some things did unfortunately
15972s die today and that would be the hopes of
15975s the playoff dreams of some of these
15977s teams let's have a look at where things
15979s shook out there's our top eight that do
15982s qualify and right out there on the tail
15985s end Timeless
15987s Celestial right at the cut off did not
15990s make
15991s it that that's so close it had to have
15994s come down to map differential in order
15996s for Timeless Celestial not to qualify
15999s today and you know they are a very good
16001s team they've shown that they can compete
16003s with a lot of the squads within the top
16004s eight and to be shoved out in ninth just
16007s like that it's it's not a Feelgood at
16010s all but you got to look at these teams
16012s right and you need to be scared looking
16014s at Michael wave still undefeated mind
16016s you and Timeless ethereal nyxl Embers
16019s and drainers being right behind them
16020s those are really the top four that you
16022s want to look at but of course not sleep
16024s on any of the others this is a pretty
16027s good you know a pretty good standing for
16029s VT Blue by the way I don't know if they
16031s have ever come into a playoffs placing
16032s this High I think it's usually six or
16034s below so that's a really great showing
16036s for them so far our winners of the last
16038s match and our Zaki X10 Goku they've made
16040s it as well as has Fable like I said
16043s that's what they got to do that's step
16045s one they want to earn those points they
16046s want to earn their stake keep their
16048s claim as all these dogs are nipping at
16050s their heels they want to make sure that
16053s they qualify for Champs and this has
16055s been step one unfortunately we have to
16058s say sayara to the teams 9 through 16 as
16061s well as those that didn't quite make the
16062s cut for the leaderboard here it has been
16065s quite the Swiss weekend here and a lot
16067s of story lines coming out especially out
16069s of that top eight and there's only one
16071s way to follow those story lines and
16073s that's to stay tuned in and come out and
16075s support us again next weekend yep still
16077s plenty more calling all heroes action to
16079s happen you saw the top eight teams and
16081s guess what they'll be returning for that
16082s double elimination playoff bracket not
16084s only competing for 10 $1,000 but an
16088s opportunity to qualify for our
16090s championships coming up on fairy plenty
16092s of action you are not going to want to
16094s miss throughout the day thank you so
16096s much to calling cares and of course
16098s radiant putting on this lovely broadcast
16100s making us look pretty pleasure to work
16101s with you as always csb it's been tiny
