444s	all heroes rise together minor 3 hosted
447s	by Toronto Defiance how fitting it is
450s	that the team that tells us we should
451s	rise together is giving a place for
453s	marginalized gender players and talent
455s	to do just that my name is CV and I am
458s	so excited to get to be here to kick it
459s	all off with you and I'm super excited
461s	to do it with my good friend and coaster
462s	Jag who I know is just as excited as I
465s	am oh I am so thrilled to be here CB I
468s	know you already got to experience
470s	calling all heroes earlier on during
472s	minor one now I get to be here for minor
474s	3 with you we're going to have an
476s	amazing set of games but most
478s	importantly this tournament this circuit
480s	is just so incredible it's a great place
482s	for underrepresented genders to be able
483s	to play at the highest level I can't
486s	wait to see what we have in store for us
488s	today I you said it I mean like I I will
491s	never stop touting uh you know how much
493s	I love calling all heroes and how
495s	important it is it's a great place for
496s	marginalized gender players
497s	underrepresented communities to come
499s	together have a place to cultivate you
502s	know get both talent and players on all
504s	sides uplift everybody a variety of
506s	roles and just make it a great place for
509s	these players to get together and have
511s	some sick competition like you love to
513s	see it right you love to have these
514s	players having a place to cultivate and
516s	grow as talent and I'll never stop
518s	singing its Praises I love this program
520s	so
521s	much you and me as well and as well as
524s	everyone who is joining us here today
525s	but it has been quite the journey to get
528s	here to minor 3 we've already had a year
530s	worth of competition I mean look at all
533s	these amazing events that we already had
535s	last month minor 2 of the Washington
536s	Justice and here we are now today minor
539s	3 uh it's getting down to the
540s	nitty-gritty there are not a whole lot
542s	of events left before the championship
544s	in the last chance qualifier this is one
546s	of the last chances teams have to be
548s	able to get those circuit points that
549s	are oh so important if they want that
551s	automatic spot to get into the
553s	championship tournament later on in
554s	February absolutely that that
557s	championship tournament is going to be
558s	the big paycheck that's the big money
560s	that's the big one that all these
561s	players are playing for but you know of
563s	course we do have uh we do have just
565s	today's tournament to focus on or sorry
567s	this uh this current tournament for now
569s	get there that's our current stop on the
571s	road to that championships where today
574s	we're going to kick things off with some
576s	of our Swiss rounds we're going through
577s	six Swiss rounds today that's going to
579s	be the first three today and the next
581s	three tomorrow and the top eight teams
584s	are going to qualify for that double
585s	elimination bracket next week where
588s	they're going to be playing for that
589s	cash prize and for like you said those
591s	all important circuit points that are
593s	going to be an increasingly short supply
596s	as time goes on yeah it means that there
598s	are some chances you can slip up here in
600s	the first the second round maybe even
602s	the third round and still have a
604s	possibility to qualify for that double
606s	elimination bracket that's going to be
607s	happening next week but it is going to
610s	be a first to two all day today so not a
613s	lot of room for error when it comes to
614s	those Maps you fall down one and you
616s	already are falling down a pretty big
618s	rabbit hole you're really got to start
619s	off strong to get going but there is a
622s	lot on the line as you said it's not
625s	just circuit points we also have some
627s	cash priz as well 20 ,300 Canadian for
631s	first $1,800 Canadian for second $1,400
634s	Canadian for third and then last but not
637s	least if you get fourth $1,100 Kon doll
640s	as well as the circuit points that are
641s	being assigned not per team but per
643s	player I I mean the cash prize is
645s	definitely going to be a big motivator
646s	for a lot of these players but the real
648s	motivator in my opinion does need to be
650s	those circuit points cuz you want to
651s	make sure that you have enough to
652s	qualify for the Championships lest you
654s	have to you know Brave your way through
656s	the hurricane that's going to be lcq to
658s	try and get there because that's where
659s	again the big the big tournament's going
662s	to be if you're not there you did it's
665s	cuz you didn't come correct it's cuz you
667s	didn't come correct when you had to and
669s	like we said there are fewer and fewer
670s	opportunities after this again only one
672s	more major tournament after today or
674s	after this weekend sorry yeah and there
677s	are some teams already that are looking
679s	great that are in great shape to make
681s	that Championship bracket in February
683s	Washington Timeless Valiant Guardians
684s	two of the teams that are really high up
686s	in those standings have a lot of circuit
688s	points to their names but there are some
690s	other teams Vancouver Titans blue Fable
692s	trainers you know they've been doing
693s	really well in these tournaments but
695s	they are kind of on that bubble where
697s	they could potentially get knocked out
699s	if they don't have some good upcoming
700s	tournaments like today tomorrow next
703s	weekend as well as major three upcoming
705s	so there is a lot on the line here yeah
708s	they're going to have to take the most
709s	of those opportunities to earn those
710s	those tournament points uh and to earn
712s	that cash prize but hey you as a viewer
714s	you can be earning some things as well
716s	if you're here especially on the
717s	OverWatch contenders Channel we got some
719s	skins for you you love skins chat if you
722s	stick around watch calling all heroes
723s	and support the stream on the OverWatch
725s	contenders Channel you can get yourself
727s	a lovely tier 2 Mercy skin there and uh
730s	you know later on we're going to have
732s	the Kido and the Hanzo ones available as
734s	well but stick around today and you can
736s	get your own personal OverWatch
737s	contenders guardian angel I want that
740s	skin I'm not going to lie I I I think
742s	Mercy very underrated hero I think it
744s	takes a lot of skill to play her at the
746s	highest level representing her for the
748s	path Pro for contenders is an awesome
750s	thing to do so I got to have the stream
752s	up myself so I can get it as well CB I
754s	don't know about you but as we WRA that
757s	up I'm probably just going to like you
758s	know speak to the tournament admins and
759s	be like hey I was casting can I like get
761s	the the Skins can you just like slide
763s	them my way yeah please can I can I
765s	please have some Contender skins please
767s	that is all I ask for but as we wrap up
770s	that uh we got to talk about our first
772s	matchup of the day it is Swiss so you
774s	know we're going to see a lot of
775s	different matchups based on kind of win
776s	loss throughout today and tomorrow but
778s	we got a bit of of a banger to start
780s	things off trainers versus yippy Cary I
782s	think this is going to be a very
783s	interesting match up one that we haven't
785s	necessarily seen on calling all heroes
787s	but we've seen these team two teams in
788s	performance um in some other tournaments
790s	recently yeah absolutely I I think this
792s	is going to be a great match to kind of
794s	get set the tone for how we're going to
795s	kick things off today drainers as a team
798s	has been uh you know they had a really
800s	strong performance in the last minor I
801s	think they placed third place in that
802s	one and between then and now had an
805s	absolutely Stellar performance in a uh
807s	another Community tournament the
808s	kunoichi fuffle where they played in
810s	both the na and EU brackets for that
813s	tournament and won both of them in the
815s	same day and there was a lot of other
817s	calling all heroes teams uh you know
819s	playing as a collective in that
820s	tournament as well as some of the talent
822s	being scattered about some of the other
824s	rosters there but that shows that this
826s	team is capable of showing up however
829s	they're showing up today with a slightly
830s	different DPS core than the one that
833s	made that incredible feat they no longer
835s	have peace they now have IES and Senna
838s	is going to be out this weekend so we
839s	have KJ stepping in but that's still a
842s	very competent DPS line I mean you still
845s	look at this roster and it's star set a
847s	kindred from New York exceler academy
849s	one of the best tank players that we
850s	have in the calling o hero scene uh
853s	previously going by wika now going by
855s	Scarlet on the support role also very
857s	very good and highly touted in that role
860s	so we're going to see a lot of former
862s	nyxl all over calling all heroes
864s	throughout this weekend and next weekend
867s	and like you said I mean they did really
868s	well and that was a tournament like you
869s	said even though it was a bit of a
870s	different roster they beat a full
872s	Valiant guardians or they at least
874s	placed above them in the North American
876s	tournament oh no no they they they won
878s	they they've won the the whole thing
880s	they're like yeah no this team is is
882s	quickly racking up a lot of the
884s	accolades and you know despite only
886s	coming together as a collective in the
887s	previous minor tournament making a big
889s	showing there you know making some of
891s	the other top tier teams sweat the ones
893s	that did eventually end up walking away
894s	with it and then coming through in that
896s	tournament and just wiping the floor
897s	with all of them in both Reg regions it
899s	says a lot but their opponents are a
901s	Mainstay of calling all heroes pretty
903s	much since day one team yippy carry and
906s	uh yeah they are grinders they've been
909s	around as a collective not making too
911s	many roster swaps since the Inception of
913s	calling all heroes and you know that's I
916s	mean drainers have to be the favorites
918s	but yippy Cary like they're a team that
920s	can absolutely surprise you especially
921s	if drainers come with a slow start today
924s	yeah absolutely and I think you look at
925s	this lineup you look at sunshine a very
927s	popular streamer in the OverWatch
928s	community has a huge falling very good
930s	hit scan player we'll see what she can
932s	do but I also kind of want to look at
934s	this organization as a whole you see up
935s	there their manager ocean GM for team
938s	Ireland in this world cup also
939s	previously owned a contenders team in
941s	Korea and then also this organization um
944s	you know yippi carry kind of a newer
946s	team overall not like the actual lineup
948s	but the brand but this is part of K
950s	Esports which has been around for you
951s	know about a year or two playing in
953s	other Esports titles usually in those
955s	tactical Shooters so they have this I
958s	would say infrastructure structure that
959s	some other teams may not have you know
961s	they have these managers they have these
962s	coaches they have a lot of resources at
964s	their disposal that even the best
965s	players might not have it's more of a
967s	pickup style team so even though they
970s	might be The Underdogs I'm very curious
971s	to see if that infrastructure if that
973s	organizational prowess that they have
975s	can give them a leg up potentially and
977s	help them get this upset they yeah they
980s	also they have that and the team
981s	cohesion again like I said from being
983s	you know around since the Inception of
984s	calling all heroes they're definitely a
985s	team that can make some noise they've
987s	been on the outside looking in for a lot
989s	of the playoffs throughout there but
990s	like I said they feel like a team on the
992s	rise they are grinders they are capable
994s	of bigger things but going up against
996s	drainers in the first round got to feel
998s	a little bit scary again you're kind of
1000s	hoping for drainers to have a really
1001s	slow start and maybe have sunshine to
1003s	have a big pop off game and hope that
1005s	that's enough to carry you to victory
1007s	either that or rely on the team cohesion
1009s	rely on the organizational structure
1010s	backing this team you know all of that
1013s	yeah you got to bring all of that to the
1014s	table and come correct here it's only
1016s	the first round but you still want to
1017s	make sure that you get out ahead of the
1019s	pack well if you're going to rise you
1020s	got to rise together and hopefully the
1023s	map Pool will be in their favor we're
1025s	going to see exactly what that looks
1027s	like in just a moment layout all the
1029s	potential Maps throughout the entirety
1031s	of the tournament we're going to be
1032s	starting out on control and the first
1034s	round it's already been predetermined
1036s	for this one it's going to be Oasis but
1038s	after that it's going to be losers pick
1039s	so we could see nabani Midtown ional it
1042s	goes to map three flash point new junk
1044s	City Casta and today it could be a a
1048s	four map pushed as a tiebreaker colosio
1050s	new Queen Street we're not going to be
1051s	seeing escort unfortunately until next
1053s	weekend for playoffs when there is a
1055s	first three format but still a pretty
1058s	solid map I'm very excited to see what
1060s	teams are able to pull out here we we
1062s	might see escort if one of these teams
1063s	manages to find a way to draw on either
1065s	control or flasho it hasn't been done
1067s	yet but these are some real Trailblazers
1068s	we have here surely someone can crack
1071s	that potential code and then also you
1073s	know maybe okay I haven't figured out
1076s	push yet they just leave the bot in the
1077s	center we could we could find way I
1079s	think it's possible no one touches it
1080s	just like they literally just don't
1081s	touch it throughout the entirety of the
1083s	10 minutes they just leave it they right
1084s	in the center I think that is the only
1086s	way that could work but it could happen
1088s	it actually could happen I don't think
1089s	it's going to happen but if it does we
1091s	this would definitely be a record
1094s	setting
1095s	occasion well as we uh as we kind of
1098s	shift into Oasis which I think is
1100s	impossible to draw I don't even know if
1101s	I can come up with a a hair brain scheme
1103s	for that one we're going to be looking
1104s	to see what maps come up first you know
1106s	we talked again about drainers in their
1108s	roster and highlighted Kindred and I'm
1109s	really glad you did because I tout her
1112s	as potentially the best junker Queen in
1113s	all of calling all heroes I say
1115s	potentially cuz there's always a couple
1116s	other contenders out there but I've
1118s	always been a huge fan of her junker
1119s	Queen play and I in my opinion it's one
1122s	of the best but she's also liked to play
1124s	a lot of the Reinhardt as of late along
1125s	with the rest of Team drainers they've
1127s	you know they've come out with some of
1128s	that like London Spitfire es Ryan Rush
1130s	from time to time that's kind of what
1131s	got them those victories in the kunoichi
1133s	Kur fuffle that and a little bit of
1135s	flexibility so whatever kind of Pain
1137s	Train the drainers come out here with
1139s	Kindred is going to be the one driving
1140s	it so whatever she's on pay close
1143s	attention absolutely and you know the
1145s	Jinger Queen gives you a bit more
1146s	Mobility because you your shout gives
1148s	everyone Shields and also some increased
1150s	movement also i' say a little bit more
1151s	upfront damage to stain ability with her
1153s	Jag and knife being able to heal her
1154s	Ryan I feel like plays a bit more
1156s	passively except when you're ready to
1157s	charge in full steam ahead you can also
1159s	go for some fire strikes from just God
1163s	knows where I mean we saw hottie in
1164s	OverWatch League playoffs hit some
1166s	insane ones basically was playing
1167s	Widowmaker with those fire strikes so we
1170s	I think that will really kind of show us
1171s	what kind of tempo or what kind of braw
1173s	they're playing either one that's a bit
1174s	slower Pace but more waight for your DPS
1176s	to do a lot of damage and then engage or
1178s	the junker Queen you're running in
1179s	straight ahead and she is just going to
1181s	be leading the full team but it is going
1183s	to be it looks like University to start
1186s	things off which is going to be very
1188s	good I believe for the side of drainers
1190s	because if they want to play this brawl
1191s	style this is potentially the best
1193s	submap on Oasis for it yeah I think if
1196s	we end up going to city center that's
1197s	going to be the one trying to keep it I
1198s	on it's going to be the most different
1200s	the biggest outlier cuz you know we talk
1202s	about the junker Queen we talk about the
1203s	Reinhardt and how they're both very in
1205s	yourface Brawl just one a little bit
1206s	more passive than the other but with
1209s	both Gardens and with University we are
1211s	actually starting out on Gardens either
1213s	of those can be favored on that potent
1215s	like on these
1217s	submaps yeah I think High Ground is a
1219s	lot more important here on Gans because
1221s	that is a big part of the point itself
1223s	in kind of taking control of the
1225s	objective early on I would say less so
1227s	on University but as you can see like
1228s	already
1229s	car they're going to rotate they're
1230s	going to try to take that High Ground
1232s	they're going to try set their Bastion
1233s	so the zarya going to be coming out to
1234s	play into a sigma so actually not what
1236s	we expected at all this be more of a
1237s	poke C that's coming out from trainers
1239s	but they'll have a big Shield to be able
1241s	to protect their Bastion where fora once
1243s	you run out of bubbles I mean you don't
1245s	really have anything that protect your
1246s	Bastion at all I mean this composition
1248s	from drainers was essentially the
1249s	composition that won Florida Mayhem the
1251s	championship so you know they've done
1253s	their homework they have scouted it all
1254s	out and they've already taken down
1256s	Kayla's immortality field and they've
1257s	knocked oh they lost KJ get booped right
1260s	off the map there by unlucky and Scarlet
1261s	going to follow that's what a two-piece
1264s	there to open it up unlucky man with two
1267s	environmental kills y be car going to
1269s	take first control off of that one and
1271s	now Kindred is just kind of left alone
1273s	on an island her and you are going to
1275s	follow and yippy carry taken for his
1277s	control Kayla they do have to use
1279s	immortality field to make sure no one
1280s	gets stagered but huge plays I mean
1282s	unlucky me they got to re they got to
1284s	change their name after that I think
1285s	they got to go by luckiest person or
1287s	just most skilled person in the lobby
1289s	after those very nice sound waves to Bo
1291s	off the support line from drainers but
1293s	they got the capture before that fight
1295s	was even over no luck that that was
1298s	right right place right time knowing
1300s	exactly where to be where they were
1301s	about to poke their heads out and making
1302s	them pay for it but now K going to go
1305s	ahead and take a different approach not
1306s	going to you know go through that choke
1307s	point and risk getting booped off again
1309s	this time just taking an approach from
1311s	Main but they can't really fully commit
1313s	though they don't have uh they don't
1315s	have KJ set up on the Bastion much of
1317s	anywhere z turn though with an early a
1319s	but they already lose Scarlet going in
1322s	they do manage to take down unlucky but
1324s	that's not a great trade to lose your uh
1326s	your you lose the support that early on
1328s	the way in gratic flux going to come out
1330s	from Kindred though but it whips and
1331s	yippy carry they're able to hold on
1334s	strong they take down KJ and it's once
1336s	again just Kindred that was a pretty bad
1340s	fight for the drainers there yeah they
1342s	lose two ultimates they only get one out
1344s	of Kayla now e car they're going to have
1346s	both DPS ultimates a sound barrier
1349s	almost a graviton surge they have
1351s	everything to put this away and the most
1352s	dangerous thing is that because they
1354s	lost that first fight took them so long
1355s	they got so staggered out this is
1357s	basically Last by territory they could
1358s	get 100 to zero here on the first point
1360s	of Oasis especially if y Car Cycle these
1362s	alss out rees's p is going to go ahead
1364s	and pop the Dragon Blade already two
1366s	down for the drainers it's looking like
1368s	YY car is just going to walk away with
1369s	this one and that's one ult invested for
1372s	a full one one team fight and less than
1374s	10 seconds for anyone from drainers to
1376s	touch KJ definitely not going to be the
1378s	the one to do it is they're going to go
1379s	ahead and Pop That artillery strike
1381s	Scarlet does sneak in the back door
1383s	she's able to trigger OT but is there
1384s	going to be a followup touch it looks
1386s	like it's going to have to be her again
1388s	actually Kindred pins in pitting Terra
1390s	but the sound barrier from unlucky means
1391s	she's going to be sitting pretty there
1393s	with that uh with all that over Health
1395s	unlucky pressuring Scarlet away and
1397s	drainers they don't have any ultimate
1399s	abilities they don't really have much of
1401s	anything they don't even have
1401s	positioning they don't have a tank any
1403s	longer they're able to pop that blizzard
1405s	there from evest but is anybody going to
1407s	get is anybody going to get caught up
1408s	and it looks like no sunshine and Terra
1410s	just mopping the floor with the
1411s	remainders of the drainers and that's
1413s	going to be Gardens going the way of
1414s	yippi Cary surely once they deal with
1417s	Scarlet down the drain they go not the
1420s	expected result whatsoever based on past
1423s	tournament performance yippi carry they
1425s	come out with the zarya composition it
1427s	works wonders I cannot understate how
1431s	good unlucky main was to open things up
1434s	if they don't get those S Wave kills
1436s	they don't get those boops off the map
1437s	this could have been a completely first
1438s	submap but they just completely Chang
1440s	the game and from there yippy carry they
1442s	take control literally and they never
1444s	let go I I thought actually it was a
1446s	little bit touch and go at the end the
1447s	charge in from Kindred it seems like y
1449s	car is a bit split they use the sound
1451s	barrier doesn't catch everyone um you
1454s	know the I think the gravit on search
1455s	also wasn't the most high value impact
1458s	but they get it done that's a great way
1460s	you said yourself they have to start
1462s	this out fast they got to start this out
1464s	and play excellent that is exactly what
1465s	they've done but can they keep that
1466s	momentum going now that we are at City
1469s	Center yeah this is going to be the one
1470s	to watch again because you don't have
1472s	the rush favored uh geometry you know
1475s	Kindred is still going to default over
1476s	to that junker Queen her Comfort pick
1478s	again I tout her is one of the best in
1480s	calling all heroes on this hero but is
1482s	she going to be able to find a whole lot
1483s	of purchase there with the space they do
1485s	actually manage to take down Reese
1486s	species and that's a great two-piece to
1488s	open things up there fores if they're
1490s	able to take down sunshine I think
1491s	they're pretty much set for life the
1493s	immortality field already blown from
1495s	Kayla off the field KJ takes down such
1498s	sunshine and that's it yeah that's it
1500s	that's the fight there drainers they
1502s	clap back after losing gens and take uh
1504s	take first cap on City Center you best
1507s	understanding purposly how to play this
1508s	Genji when you see someone weak you just
1510s	Dash and get that final blow you get the
1512s	reset and you keep going for more there
1514s	those Genji plays huge follow up it
1516s	seems like drainers despite losing that
1518s	first submap they have re awoken they're
1521s	looking for blood as no not a lot of
1524s	ultimates built up just yet but winning
1525s	that neutral fight and getting a lot of
1526s	point percentage right off the get over
1528s	looking really nice yipp car they're
1529s	going to find a way back in you can see
1531s	that trainers they're just playing
1532s	natural cover really well yeah they're
1534s	trying to bait yippy carry in and it's
1536s	looking like Reese's is taking a little
1537s	bit of the bait there doing a little bit
1539s	of limit testing though goes in a little
1541s	bit too deep and Reese's is there with a
1543s	punish and yeah drainers they might have
1545s	overextended just a wee bit and Y car
1547s	going to be happy to take advantage of
1549s	it the lamp comes out from Zep turn but
1551s	it's quickly dealt with and the
1553s	remainers of drainers are on the back
1554s	foot you see Zep turn getting taken down
1557s	there sunshine with the clean up a nice
1558s	little Dash and ypp carry at about 50%
1561s	going to clap
1562s	back must be putting in a lot of work
1564s	they have gotten their ant Matrix now
1566s	twice really quickly they're actually
1568s	the first one to get an ultimate here on
1569s	this second Point despite the fact that
1571s	they didn't win that first fight so they
1573s	must be doing some insane healing some
1574s	insane damage that is helping them get
1576s	these ultimates but that could be a huge
1578s	game changer here if they are able to
1580s	get that window off quickly this is
1582s	going to be where it gets really
1583s	dangerous ant M just come out but you
1585s	still have Sunshine set up on the
1587s	Bastion he's a very difficult hero to
1588s	dislodge and you can tell that drainers
1590s	don't want none of that but they're
1592s	going to go ahead and get an early pick
1593s	off there it's KJ taking down Reese's
1595s	and that's going to give him a window to
1597s	pop that overclock and hopefully take
1599s	down Sunshine but the grenade is there
1601s	with a little Boop to follow it up and
1602s	KJ overextends just a little a little
1604s	bit as well and I mean drainers they're
1606s	still able to find a fair bit but that
1608s	looked a little bit touch and go there
1610s	for a second it's going to be yippy
1611s	carry dropping the point at about 40% to
1614s	drainers who flip it back in their favor
1617s	yeah it's going to be the the flip back
1618s	immediately back and forth the point
1620s	continues to go but drainers overall the
1622s	ones in a better Al Bank position they
1623s	do use two there to win that one out but
1626s	I feel like this ultimate coming out
1628s	from the Jugger Queen could be
1629s	everything the Rampage especially cuz
1631s	there is no sound barrier on the other
1632s	side from unlucky M it's actually going
1634s	to be the Bastion artillery St that
1635s	start up it's going to force out the
1637s	sound beer because of the graviton surge
1639s	that was using
1640s	combination yeah the graviton surge was
1642s	thrown up on The High Ground but doesn't
1644s	look like there was anybody there to
1644s	follow up on it and yeah everybody just
1646s	Falls I mean scarlet and best the sound
1648s	barrier and the rest of drainers just go
1650s	aggressive those that aren't turn
1651s	currently tied up and a in a graviton
1653s	surge way up on The High Ground but yeah
1655s	drainers are able to just weather that
1657s	storm with a little bit of an investment
1658s	there and they are now swapping their
1660s	comp completely but they are keeping
1662s	their sound barrier they're keeping
1663s	their blade and they're going to have to
1664s	go quickly but drainers they do win that
1666s	fight but they use everything to get the
1667s	job done so they are not in a great
1669s	standing all Bank wise you carry they
1671s	should win this unless things go
1672s	horribly WR but they lose Terra yeah
1675s	that's a great way for it to go horribly
1676s	wrong losing your tank that early
1678s	Kindred is on the prow looking for the
1679s	backline Reese's pops the Dragon Blade
1681s	but is only able to find one for it the
1683s	sound barer comes out but the body
1684s	blocking from Kindred means nobody from
1686s	yippy carry can touch the point and the
1688s	drainers will take City Center and now
1691s	we're going to University where this
1692s	junker Queen can be a very scary pick oh
1696s	this is where it's going to be scary as
1697s	you combo with a may you block someone
1699s	off of the wall and they are absolutely
1701s	done for we'll see if that may comes out
1704s	into fruition but I want to go back to
1705s	that last fight really quickly maybe
1708s	care I really thought they had that in
1709s	the back it just feels like some
1710s	miscommunication there the Winston
1712s	jumping in a little bit too early as the
1714s	touch gets forced off that High Ground I
1716s	mean they had beat they had blade you
1719s	got to wonder if they played that a
1720s	little bit more patiently if that could
1721s	have gone differently but instead going
1724s	to University where drainers probably
1725s	feel the most confident it doesn't look
1726s	like that Ma to come out but it feels
1728s	like all of a sudden they're in the
1729s	driver seet they get 100 to Z go on that
1731s	first sub map but they have completely
1733s	turned the momentum around yeah I mean
1735s	going back to that fight I do think it
1736s	was the play there would would have been
1738s	to go in with the sound barrier but it
1739s	was just a little bit too late to save
1741s	terara so terara swapping back now over
1743s	onto Old Reliable for University going
1745s	back with that zarya hopefully she's
1747s	going to be able to get better use out
1748s	of the graviton surge when she gets it
1749s	there but Kindred going to go super
1751s	aggressive at immortality field to try
1753s	and help her out but they are able to
1754s	burst down sunshine and without that
1756s	Bastion on the field it should be a lot
1758s	more free to take more space but not
1760s	without Zep turn
1762s	Orest G kry going to go ahead and take
1764s	down to they can't really go too
1766s	aggressive though cuz kindred is still
1768s	on the prow and you know drainers it's
1770s	Scrappy they lose a couple bodies on the
1772s	way in but they do get first cap here
1774s	and it's another situation where you
1775s	have sunshine on the Bastion but you
1777s	can't really get her set up Zep turn
1780s	there with one of the plays of the game
1782s	she throws in the immortality field
1783s	that's what you got to do when you have
1784s	an aggressive tank like this you throw
1785s	it on to them as they fall weak you get
1787s	he them healed up they got the Jag NE to
1789s	heal themselves you also just throw in
1790s	the primary healing and they are able to
1791s	sustain throughout all of that unlike
1793s	Tera who unfortunately just doesn't have
1795s	the same sort of support when they try
1796s	to go in and because of that Diner's
1798s	able to win that first fight out you be
1800s	care they are not giving up they got to
1802s	stop they got to let them not go in like
1804s	that and Kayla is just obliterated yeah
1806s	the commanding shout comes out and
1808s	everybody from drainers just walks
1809s	forward on that yippy carry everybody's
1810s	low HP they don't really have a whole
1812s	lot of sustainability and they're
1814s	scattered as well and that's going to be
1816s	a late kill on unlucky main there like
1819s	at 40% it's going to be you know yippy
1821s	Carri they have a couple more fights
1822s	here but that was a pretty clean fight
1825s	there from drainers a drive fight too
1827s	they use absolutely nothing they're
1828s	getting ultimates online if they rotate
1830s	these well enough they could be reverse
1832s	sweeping the first map of the series of
1834s	this tournament on stream and it's
1836s	looking very very good for them I think
1837s	you be car they got to play a bit more
1839s	passive right now but how do you do that
1840s	when they keep running on top of you
1841s	like there's no room for breathing right
1843s	now this junker Queen they continue
1844s	Kindred continues just to run on top of
1846s	your backline you can't really be
1848s	passive you have to go aggressive to try
1849s	and get Sunshine set up but Kindred is
1851s	not going to let that happen with a
1852s	Gracie to the face takes down sunshine
1855s	and yippy carry they don't have a leg to
1856s	stand on right now cuz drainers just
1858s	kicked it right out from underneath them
1860s	Kayla even invested that amp mrix to try
1862s	and get sunshine in position but it's no
1864s	good and again it's a dry fight from
1866s	drainers they don't invest anything and
1868s	now they have everything they have an
1871s	ALT apocalypse as my good friend suin
1873s	coin a long time ago they're going to
1874s	use the first one the application Matrix
1877s	but it's going to be the blade in
1878s	response yeah but the sound barrier from
1880s	there is there from scarlet and that
1881s	blade is looking pretty dull there
1883s	Reese's even gets low and has to back up
1885s	to the immortality field KJ Pops that
1887s	over block takes down Terra now you got
1889s	no tank now you got no space it's a
1891s	token artillery strike coming out from
1893s	Sunshine but the rest of yippy carry
1895s	have fallen and drainers will take Oasis
1898s	in a clean 100 to zero on University
1901s	Gardens looked a little bit shaky but
1902s	the other two maps were all drainers all
1905s	the time it just seemed like they were
1907s	leveling up throughout the series
1908s	continue to get their power level up
1910s	higher and higher the second map of the
1913s	series a little bit more back and forth
1914s	we saw some you know the point being
1917s	flipped on City CER a bit but here they
1919s	answer getting Z to 100 with 100 to Z of
1922s	their own they never gave up control and
1924s	the tempo of their play we talked about
1926s	this at the very beginning of this map
1928s	if we saw Kindred playing the junker
1929s	queen versus the Reinhardt the junker
1931s	Queen had to be aggressive you had to
1933s	constantly be running in to their front
1934s	line their back line just anyone you can
1936s	that's exactly what they did at the end
1938s	you could see that Synergy that coercion
1940s	was getting better and better as time
1943s	went on and the the result is expected
1945s	the way they got there not so much I I
1948s	like how by the way how you called out
1949s	the aggressive use of the immortality
1951s	field there from Zep turn because like I
1952s	said you know Kindred she's one of the
1954s	best if not the best junker Queen in CA
1956s	and if you have the best junker Queen on
1958s	your team you're going to know how to
1959s	play in a way that's going to enable her
1961s	to be as aggressive as she wants to be
1962s	to get the value that she wants to have
1964s	she was constantly in Sunshine's face
1967s	not letting that Bastion set up and if
1969s	you play tank on live patch right now
1971s	you know you are terrified of that
1973s	little omnic thing and just the amount
1976s	of burst damage that he can put in down
1977s	he just melt you in in a second it makes
1979s	playing tank miserable but not if your
1981s	name is Kindred not if you have Zep turn
1983s	using the immortality fields to keep
1985s	that aggression in check going just
1987s	right into the eye of the storm and
1989s	taking down the Bastion over and over
1990s	again you don't let him set up he gets
1992s	no
1993s	value yeah it's very true and uh I I
1996s	mean I have some insight as the social
1997s	media manager for this Spitfire uh the
2000s	comms basically when we play Rin comps
2002s	is like literally hottie just yelling
2004s	for a lamp from Landon so I'm assuming
2006s	it's something like that like this slam
2008s	L like you know like I'm weak I'm going
2010s	in nothing can stop me this is either a
2012s	oneway trip you're going to save me and
2013s	we're going to win this fight that's
2014s	kind of how you have to play like pedal
2016s	to the metal you cannot give up any sort
2018s	of room because with that Bastion on the
2020s	other side if you give them that
2021s	Alleyway to shoot through they are just
2023s	going to melt you down so making
2025s	Sunshine uncomfortable forcing her into
2027s	a spot where she is getting run up on
2029s	where she can't really be as much of the
2032s	damage dealer she wants to be as they
2034s	were or just even going for the back
2035s	line right off the bat so there's no
2037s	healing when sunshine gets weak or when
2039s	Tera gets weak I mean that's just a
2041s	winning scenario every single time and
2043s	again like it was a bit of a slow start
2044s	I think we saw them try to play
2045s	something a little bit different you
2047s	know the sigma comp it did work for the
2048s	Florida Mayhem like you said but just
2050s	like every other team in playoffs I mean
2052s	they're playing what they're comfortable
2053s	at this meta isn't really a meta I would
2055s	say sure there are some like
2056s	pre-arranged comps but most teams are
2058s	just playing what they're good at and
2059s	they are making it work it's entirely
2062s	possible that that comp that they came
2063s	out with you know the Florida Mayhem
2064s	Sigma composition there was just them
2066s	like trying on a new pair of shoes to
2068s	see if they could walk see if they can
2069s	maybe run in them they stumbled they
2071s	could barely crawl with it but you know
2073s	it was a suboptimal map for that kind of
2074s	composition like Gardens is a lot better
2077s	for like something more dive Centric or
2078s	something braw the Poke comp with the
2080s	sigma that's not that's not where he
2082s	lives that's not where he likes to be so
2084s	you know just trying on a new pair of
2085s	shoes seeing if it fits it didn't we go
2087s	back to all reliable we go back to what
2089s	we're good at we go back to junker Queen
2091s	aggression that team cohesion having
2093s	faith in your backline to have that lamp
2095s	there for you when you need it and just
2096s	don't let yippy Cary get set up because
2099s	you know sorry I almost drop my apple
2101s	pencil you know how dangerous that
2104s	fastion could be once he is set up and
2106s	once he's able to melt out put out all
2107s	that damage I I can't stress enough how
2110s	much I hate playing tank against Bastion
2111s	right now like I'm a support main and
2113s	I'm always like I want to try other
2114s	roles maybe I'll try tank and then I
2116s	play one game and then I'm like I don't
2117s	want to try tank anymore I'm done the
2119s	other team swap Bastion ruined my fun no
2121s	one else in the lobby gets to have fun
2123s	Bastion is a fun ruer confirmed but we
2126s	will be moving on to to the next map in
2128s	our series we'll see if Bastion can ruin
2130s	the fun for that as well it is going to
2132s	be yippi car's pick I'm very intrigued
2134s	to see what they go with here because it
2136s	seems like they really want to commit to
2137s	that zarya composition if I was them I'd
2140s	go for Midtown I think Midtown gives you
2142s	the best opportunity to kind of run that
2143s	zarya take some High Ground doesn't
2146s	allow necessarily the junker Queen to
2148s	run into you I I don't know really if
2150s	there is a potential symmetri comp that
2152s	strainers could run because I feel like
2153s	that would make Midtown work for them
2155s	but if not I I feel like if they want to
2157s	stick to what they've been doing that's
2158s	the best bet uh I would not choose Nani
2160s	though I mean we we've seen these teams
2162s	not really go for dive just yet I can
2164s	both it be an interesting one I feel
2166s	like ien Wald would be more towards the
2167s	strengths what we've seen so far from um
2171s	draer so that's why my V would be for
2173s	Midtown if I was in y car's coaching
2175s	room right now Midtown probably makes
2177s	the most sense but I feel like you know
2179s	if you want to play to the enemy team's
2181s	weaknesses that maybe nubani might be a
2182s	good shout because you know Kindred
2184s	again very great on those brawl tanks
2186s	but how is she on the Winston we might
2188s	have to find out yeah I mean he's
2190s	Winston's kind of falling out of favor
2192s	but hey you know we are we're also
2193s	watching some of the uh some of the
2195s	matches from the previous minor and even
2196s	some of the matches that were played you
2198s	know ever since then from between then
2200s	and now there's also a lot of teams that
2202s	are playing something a little bit more
2203s	Rush Centric or a little bit more poke
2205s	Centric to try and just control The High
2207s	Ground on nubani rather than the the
2209s	dive compositions to challenge it so are
2212s	either of these teams going to try and
2213s	play the dive and if they do is that a
2215s	trap I think bring up a great point is
2218s	it's like do we play to our strength or
2219s	to our enemies weakness and I think here
2220s	they're trying to play to potentially
2223s	the whole team of drainers but
2224s	specifically potentially kindra's
2225s	weakness here where we saw the wind uh
2227s	we saw the sigma did not look great on
2229s	the other side we did see terara play
2230s	the Winston also didn't look that
2232s	fantastic in like the five seconds we
2233s	got to see of it because they
2235s	immediately got blown off the map
2236s	unfortunately just got blown up into
2237s	Smither but with this it could be a
2240s	chance for them to show that they can be
2241s	a Winson player or they just force more
2243s	of that poke uh style composition they
2245s	want to play Sigma into Sigma
2247s	uh I we haven't really seen Sigma at all
2249s	from the side of Yi carry but if they
2251s	can force that match up maybe that's one
2253s	that they favor uh you know maybe they
2254s	can get Sunshine set up in better
2256s	positions especially behind the sigma
2257s	Shield that can really be that
2259s	game-changing defensive utility that
2261s	helps them stay alive it means they
2262s	don't have to play you know as scared
2264s	they don't maybe have to play as
2265s	defensive they're not as worried about
2267s	someone running up on them because also
2268s	Sigma does have that accretion does have
2269s	that big rock they could just chunk at
2271s	someone that's going to crowd control
2273s	them into Oblivion where they get
2274s	stunned for a little bit so this could
2276s	be a bit more defensive and a bit more
2277s	in their favor speaking of defensive
2280s	when drers go on the defensive here I
2282s	kind of want to keep an eye on KJ
2283s	because I have a feeling that if she
2284s	goes for a hit scan Centric hero like
2286s	say Ash which is one of her signature
2289s	Heroes that uh it might be a very
2291s	dangerous thing for yippy Cary to try
2293s	and play into because she is lethal on
2296s	hit scan Heroes by the way you know we T
2298s	I talked about Senna being on this
2299s	roster as well being their starting hit
2301s	scan player the fact that KJ is on their
2303s	bench is absolutely insane you have two
2305s	incredible hit scan players ready to go
2308s	at a moment's notice and if you have
2309s	either of them set up on The High Ground
2311s	here on Nani you better keep your head
2313s	on a swivel or you're going to lose
2316s	it yeah I mean that just shows you the
2318s	talent that Jers has and that's why
2319s	they're a top four team right now we
2321s	talked about the top three finish in the
2323s	last minor but currently sitting at
2324s	fourth in the standings looking like
2326s	they're in a great position to
2328s	potentially qualify for the championship
2331s	event just straight out the gate they
2332s	continue to put on these strong
2333s	performances and it's off the back of
2335s	these DPS plays uh I think we've talked
2337s	a lot about Kindred um but I mean both
2340s	IES and KJ have been putting up some
2342s	great numbers thus far we'll see if they
2344s	could continue that it looks like we're
2346s	going to
2347s	see I believe a yii carry on attack
2351s	first it's going to be interesting if
2353s	they bring out the doomfist this would
2355s	be something that we haven't really seen
2358s	a lot of so far at least in the calling
2360s	o Heroes vods that I watched but playing
2362s	into aine I really like this uh
2365s	obviously there's the tank uh knock
2367s	knock back passive which makes them a
2368s	little bit more resistant to that but if
2370s	you can displace that Ry constantly I
2372s	mean it can work wonders we'll see what
2373s	Terra ends up doing right now they're on
2375s	road hog they're actually going to go to
2376s	Winston with all said done I'd love for
2377s	them to try the uh doomfist if this
2380s	doesn't work out but they're going to go
2381s	for that more traditional dive setup one
2383s	thing that I am intrigued about is
2384s	there's no mercy to uh pocket the echo
2387s	they're going to go for Speed instead
2388s	which makes me think they're going to
2389s	play a little bit more together with
2391s	this Lucio and try to take either The
2392s	High Ground or just the point and force
2393s	them to fight them there the problem
2396s	though is that that doesn't really give
2397s	Kayla an opportunity to you know have a
2399s	whole lot of agency in the fight she can
2401s	or they can maybe hit a couple of
2402s	grenades a couple of sleep darts from
2404s	afar but you know without sunshine to
2406s	pressure the backline it's not I don't
2408s	think you're going to be able to F find
2409s	much purchase off of any of those
2411s	grenades and I think they know it Kayla
2412s	not going to stick their head out for
2413s	too long the rest of yippi carry going
2415s	to just try and reassess here as this is
2418s	a very difficult nut to crack here with
2419s	Kindred up on The High Ground she's
2421s	going to go ahead and drop down and
2422s	pressure out Terra Big Sleep Dart coming
2424s	out and a lot of damage actually on
2426s	drainers but lamp from Zep turn is good
2428s	keeps everybody alive and now the
2430s	fight's happening on the low ground but
2432s	Tera going to go ahead and make the dive
2433s	up on to The High Ground but KJ finds
2436s	first blood takes down reason Tera yeah
2438s	you don't want to jump into that that is
2440s	the last place that you want your
2441s	Winston to be and Terra is just going to
2443s	head on out and if you're yippy Cary how
2446s	do you crack this doomfist go doomfist I
2449s	don't think the Winston is be able to
2450s	crack this code I mean Winston's great
2453s	at like challenging High ground but you
2454s	can see that ders they're playing a bit
2456s	they're just putting their r on the low
2458s	ground and then like saying like either
2459s	you can go for this tank that's just
2460s	never going to end up falling you're
2461s	going try to go for a squishier
2462s	characters but we're also going to do a
2464s	ton of damage with the echo I mean the
2466s	focusing beam the sticky grenades that
2467s	can melt someone bastion's primary fire
2470s	as well as the grenade can also just
2472s	melt someone so it's so hard to just
2474s	jump into them they're going to swap to
2476s	this Genji so this deflect maybe he's
2478s	able to get some relief a little bit
2479s	less damage at them maybe even Force
2481s	some damage back at them but this dive
2483s	doesn't have to be like perfect it it's
2485s	a full dive so you definitely want be
2487s	perfect and it looks like the intro to
2488s	that is perfect Reese's going in with a
2490s	2K that's pretty high value picks there
2492s	and kri going to fall as well so maybe
2494s	the dive comp is just what the doctor
2495s	ordered yippy Cary staking their claim
2497s	on the point they're going to get at
2499s	least two ticks here before anybody from
2500s	drainers is able to contest if at all
2503s	and I mean what a great couple of Entry
2505s	frags there once again it's Reese's
2506s	coming through with the big plays that
2508s	yippy car need to crack that defense
2511s	yeah the Genji swap is what they need at
2512s	the end of the day just able to be a bit
2514s	more aggressive I feel like this also
2515s	plays better with the Tracer because the
2517s	Tracer does a bunch of Chip damage you
2518s	go in with your dash you get that
2521s	followup and then you get the reset
2522s	after the elimination so a lot of just
2524s	kind of quick and calculated moves and
2527s	some good team coordination that help
2528s	them get that point and really nice
2530s	adjustment a lot of teams you know
2531s	they'll bang their head against the wall
2532s	constantly trying to force the
2533s	composition to work oh we almost have
2534s	ultimates let's just play for that but
2536s	instead they're going to go for the
2537s	stick and it's only going to get the
2539s	immortality field really nice from z
2540s	turn again they've been on fire she has
2543s	been Landing these all dayred with the
2545s	shatter there but she was and there was
2547s	no one alive to follow up everybody was
2548s	still looking at that pulse bomb that
2550s	came out from sunshine and that shatter
2552s	is just down the drain now and the rest
2554s	of drainers they have to go on the back
2555s	foot yippy carry they continue to March
2557s	this cart forward off the back of just
2559s	one little misplay there says I've had
2562s	enough playing passive I've had enough
2563s	of Reinhardt I'm going back to the
2565s	junker Queen We are going to run
2567s	straight into them once again the yiy
2569s	car they have some things to work with
2570s	here the blade is going to be without a
2572s	nano but still could find quite a lot of
2574s	value in the as well as I mean it's
2576s	going be actually the and Matrix first
2577s	but they're going to just knock him off
2578s	The High Ground with the Primal Rage
2579s	that's a great Primal from Terra but
2580s	they'll leave the pedal platform coming
2582s	out from Scarlet to lift Zep turn up
2584s	into the heavens away from the angry
2586s	monkey as she descends it's now just
2588s	going to be the Dragon Blade coming out
2590s	from Reese's but Kindred with a knife
2592s	just shuts that one down despite that
2594s	though yippy Cary the cart is very close
2596s	but drainers they're able to take
2598s	control Force the rest of yippy carry
2600s	back and stop the cart just shy of that
2602s	checkpoint we haven't even talked about
2604s	the fact that there's a life Weaver on
2605s	the field right now but that's not even
2607s	that important because I didn't want to
2608s	address it I wanted to pretend to ignore
2610s	it as long as I could yeah life Weaver
2613s	is not the real character don't worry I
2614s	mean scarl has been playing really well
2616s	the ultimate there comes out and gets a
2617s	lot of healing out throughout the Dragon
2618s	Blade which got shut down but again the
2620s	immortality field has zeter sh just been
2623s	Landing them at the perfect time the
2624s	timing on immortality field is like the
2626s	different like a second could be
2628s	difference between winning a team fight
2629s	and losing it and getting getting it out
2631s	right before the blade hits getting able
2633s	or getting your Kindred like just
2635s	keeping them alive is everything think
2636s	and that has just been helping them win
2637s	this over and over again uh speaking of
2639s	great immortality fields that was not
2641s	one from Kayla forced out early just to
2643s	try and keep themselves alive but it's
2645s	no good speaking of though Reese's Beast
2647s	is actually going to take down Zep turn
2648s	so a B for a b but it seems be a little
2651s	bit back and forth actually YY kry they
2654s	might be able to make something out of
2655s	this if they can keep Sunshine alive and
2657s	Kindred says nay to that Sunshine sent
2659s	back to spawn but no one was touching
2662s	with a bit of a back there you can see
2664s	yeah look at right there being like Oh
2666s	no we done it now and I was actually
2669s	going to comment that Kindred like had
2670s	to fall from the flower pedal at one
2672s	point to stop unlucky man from tapping
2674s	it but there at the last second I mean
2677s	you've gotest in the sky on the echo no
2680s	one's actually on the point keep be
2682s	carried they're given a Lifeline they
2683s	are given a bone because again this is a
2685s	first to two this is an elimination
2686s	match it is Swiss but being able to keep
2689s	this map alive potentially being able to
2690s	force M three at least getting a lot
2692s	more cart progress that is enormous keep
2695s	car our gifted so much there we'll see
2697s	what they can do with it Reese is
2699s	actually getting really close to another
2700s	blade as well and an early pick off onto
2702s	KJ means Reese is going to have plenty
2704s	of time to farm for one Kindred has to
2706s	go for an aggressive Rampage but the
2707s	lamp is good and she's going to fall for
2709s	it sunshine with two big pickoffs there
2712s	and there's not really an opportunity
2713s	for drainers to dig their heels into the
2715s	dirt yippy car they're going to get more
2717s	cart progress and even if the cart stops
2719s	here which it very well might with those
2721s	two pickoffs there even getting the cart
2723s	this far on numani sometimes is just as
2725s	good as
2727s	and it's not getting out the
2729s	amplification Matrix that's impressive
2730s	because that was a needed ultimate zip
2732s	turn had to use it there but it's
2733s	getting out the duplicate they don't get
2734s	to build up their own a matrix the
2735s	fight's already over trainers had to
2737s	throw out everything they had and
2740s	they're going to make some swaps now
2740s	they're going to go back to more of that
2743s	poke style comp Scarlet's going to swap
2745s	from the life Weaver to the lari so a
2747s	lot more damage output potentially if
2748s	they're hitting those head shots uh
2750s	we're going to see now the Genji as well
2752s	instead of the echo but I'm really going
2753s	to be looking at Scarlet she has to hit
2755s	like she has to do cons consistent
2756s	damage here is Zar they have so much to
2758s	work with here I mean they might just
2759s	end it right now they could combo any of
2762s	their DPS ultimates with the graviton
2763s	search and they could just wipe the
2764s	entire team speaking of DPS ultimates
2767s	we're going to kick it off there's that
2768s	graviton Surge and the artillery strike
2770s	right on top of it sunshine with a nice
2772s	2K and KJ was coming up on the only ult
2774s	that drainers had at their disposal
2776s	she's not able to build up to it yippy
2777s	carry can keep the pressure on and they
2779s	do just that reeces pops the blade Zep
2782s	turn is down a couple quick quick swipes
2784s	to take down Kindred and it's only Zep
2786s	turn and best to try and stay alive
2788s	though KJ comes out with the overclock
2790s	but nobody is showing their face she has
2792s	to try and slide in to go for the
2794s	contest but she only has the pylon to
2796s	keep her alive and it is doing a ton of
2798s	work there but as it falls KJ's life is
2801s	on the clock she's somehow able to slide
2803s	away but it seems all but done for Yip
2806s	for drainers as yippy carry continue to
2808s	March forward that's said you best takes
2810s	down reason it's still a little bit
2813s	touch and go terra's down drainers they
2815s	might have have found a Lifeline with KJ
2817s	staying alive just long enough the stall
2820s	is so impressed with the swap on to
2822s	doomfist the Tracer swop as well they do
2825s	everything they need to just deny that
2827s	last 1.2 M for the full cap for yippy
2830s	carry and I got to say I think the blade
2832s	was used a little bit preemptively it
2834s	was used when there was only one member
2835s	alive save that for when the rest of
2837s	drainers is respawning instead now they
2839s	still have another fight to go and this
2841s	is last fight territory they have no
2843s	more time left they do have an ant mrix
2845s	they to S very unlucky M they fall
2848s	there's no more Lucio ultimate that's
2850s	the best possible pick you could have
2851s	gotten you still have the window coming
2853s	up from Kaleb but they're going to fall
2854s	kri is going to punch right through it
2856s	has no problem breaking a few Windows
2858s	the meteor strike going to come down
2860s	with the captive sun to burst down Tera
2862s	Reese's still contesting finds two might
2865s	actually be able to pull this off if
2866s	they can just get rid of Kindred the
2868s	beat is back unlucky main comes back and
2870s	rez's still alive but Kindred has just
2872s	so much HP Zep turn on the kyone now
2874s	going to teleport in with the Swift Step
2876s	Falls but they still haven't dislodged
2879s	Kindred they have to try and get rid of
2880s	this doomfist and they just don't seem
2882s	to have the resources to do it do yippi
2883s	KY and with tayor gone unlucky man goes
2886s	in for a big pick off there but gets
2888s	cleaned up and Kindred is once again
2890s	able to keep the stall alive as the rest
2893s	of drainers swarm the point and evict
2895s	yippy carry from it this seems to be
2897s	where the cart will stop as terara with
2900s	their last breath is going to fall 1.2 M
2904s	away from the cap there for yippi carry
2906s	but drainers with some incredible last
2908s	minute clutch
2910s	stall I think that I mean can you think
2912s	about how this map could have gone if
2913s	they hadn't given up the point if they
2915s	hadn't Cen n that could have been a
2917s	secondo hold but instead they give up
2919s	almost everything until the very last
2922s	moment 1.2 meteors separated between
2925s	stalling them on second and the full
2927s	point or the full capture of the map
2929s	going to give you carry they gave it all
2931s	they had but drainers just too good too
2933s	clean in the clutch the spawn advantage
2936s	too much to overcome we're going to see
2937s	some replays of exactly how this C9 came
2940s	out so see the echo fly and Kindred oh
2945s	no I mean
2948s	ree Reese be feeling good about that one
2951s	like that that like could have purpose
2955s	exactly that was not on purpose they
2957s	were just trying to do damage and
2958s	they're like okay cool we got the point
2961s	good job everyone yeah there's just like
2963s	that little Echo do going on there or
2965s	the echo versus the uh the Genji there
2966s	and kindred's like you got this right
2968s	let me shout in and try and repel the
2969s	rest of the team like it was actually a
2970s	smart play from kred to do that but it
2972s	was just you know stepping off the point
2975s	and Reese's just kind of falling the
2977s	success just kind of falling in Yepi
2979s	car's lap there but also think of how
2981s	like yiy carry could have absolutely
2983s	capped it if not for that one Widow shot
2986s	onto unlucky M when unlucky was about 3%
2989s	away from the sound
2991s	barrier yep they could have gone the
2993s	full cap it wouldn't have been with a
2994s	lot of time but it would have been the
2996s	the full cap nonetheless despite that
2997s	though still got a lot of push still a
3000s	lot of map to play a lot of meters to go
3002s	for drainers if they want to take the
3004s	clean two Z and clean out or clear out
3007s	the first round of this Swiss stage and
3009s	they're going to be trying to run this
3012s	Sigma poke comp once more have not
3014s	really found any success on it take that
3017s	High Ground see if they can do a little
3018s	bit of poke there's no Bastion this
3020s	time um on their side at all so KJ going
3023s	to have to get it done with Zan which
3024s	they have been doing very well going to
3026s	be Reese's yeah who needs a backline
3028s	when you just have sticky bombs that can
3029s	just blow up your soldier in there and
3031s	yeah that's a lot of your damage now
3032s	taken off the field and that's going to
3034s	be make it all the all the harder to try
3036s	and hold this High ground but despite
3038s	that trainers with both supports alive
3040s	and with Kindred up there do want to
3041s	hold it and Tera can't really contest it
3044s	right now is she doesn't have a she
3045s	doesn't have any any agency over this
3047s	right now they're just waiting for
3048s	everything to go here we go great Rock
3051s	there from Kindra to take down Reese's
3052s	and once again Tera repelled and
3054s	drainers hold this High Ground but they
3056s	have to come down eventually and they
3057s	are going to do just that Kendry going
3059s	to push forward to try and make it an
3061s	unsafe place for the rest of yippy carry
3063s	to be unlucky main going to get quite
3065s	unlucky there a couple of those Spears
3067s	from Kindred and Kindred is just
3069s	charging forward with the rest of
3070s	drainers following her that should be
3072s	the cap for drainers and they play that
3075s	so well on the side of drainers they
3076s	don't give up The High Ground despite
3077s	losing one right away they continue to
3079s	hold it and Y be car is too scared they
3081s	don't want to go in they don't want to
3082s	overplay their hand they don't want to
3083s	overextend so they just play it safe
3085s	they play the low ground and they allow
3087s	for drainers to regroup and I saw
3089s	actually what was a very good attempt
3091s	from Kayla to throw in the anade they
3094s	throw it in I don't know where it hit it
3095s	might have been too high maybe it hit
3097s	the roof it might have hit the sigma
3098s	Shield it just never landed so the
3100s	timing actually there from M car was
3102s	good Tera goes in as well as reesus goes
3104s	in off of what they assume is going to
3105s	be a huge biotic n that's going to anti
3107s	everyone make them unhealable but it
3109s	never lands and instead they just get
3111s	blown up in that fight they give up the
3112s	first point with lots of time for
3114s	drainers to move on and now they're
3116s	taking over the second point on the
3118s	map where is sunshine currently lurking
3121s	commanding sha going to come out from
3122s	Terra the amp Matrix from zpp turn to
3124s	try and repel the oncoming Onslaught and
3126s	it does seem to have at least rerouted
3128s	them yippy carry going to go through
3129s	this little room over here the amp or G
3131s	mortality field forced out rally going
3133s	to come up from scarlet and sunshine has
3135s	been plucked off in the backline by Zep
3137s	turn so no longer do the backline have
3139s	to worry about that pesky little Tracer
3141s	pressuring them from behind and the rest
3143s	of yippy carry are slowly forced back as
3145s	they don't have to check their backs
3147s	anymore they can just keep on going KJ
3149s	with a nice 3K she's going crazy there
3152s	and the night a little bit of sticky
3154s	bombs to top it off drainers a clean
3156s	team Fight Win tertis trying to take
3159s	them to the wastelands and it didn't
3160s	actually go off they get eliminated in
3163s	the middle of their ultimate that would
3164s	have been the big fight winner
3166s	potentially or at least something to
3167s	turn it around and now that's going to
3168s	be second point for free they can't no
3170s	C9 needed this time no C9 needed at all
3172s	we just walk this one right in I mean
3175s	who to C9 when you just win the fight
3177s	that cleanly when you force them to back
3178s	up drainers they are absolutely
3180s	asserting dominance they're finally
3182s	making the sigma poke composition work
3184s	it is working wonders they're going to
3186s	use the gravitic flux and this time it
3188s	is going to land they're about to do a
3189s	whole lot more than poking a little bit
3191s	of slamming back down to the Earth the
3192s	am Matrix the an Matrix comes out and
3194s	the immortality field was good but every
3195s	but for Meep carry their HP is just so
3198s	low and drainers are happy to take the
3200s	last little bit there as they March the
3201s	payload on towards that golden box of
3203s	Victory the attack from yippy Cary
3205s	looked pretty good A little shaky at
3208s	times but their defense they're running
3210s	out of
3211s	time I think Kendra just plays every
3213s	character the same at this point there
3214s	is no SK key on her keyboard just
3216s	running in on the sigma creating plenty
3218s	of space KJ still has the overclock
3221s	which could do D of damage especially
3223s	because of where they're playing they
3224s	might not see it is going to be a s
3226s	barrier s barrier is used though so they
3228s	do have the overshield yeah that's going
3230s	to make it really difficult for KJ to
3231s	find any purches she's on 5 HP but just
3233s	playing Ring Around the Rosie with
3234s	unlucky man but that takes time and that
3236s	ultimate is now down the drain great use
3238s	of the of the sound barrier there from
3240s	unlucky man and that's going to repel
3242s	any hope of an attack that drainers had
3244s	but Scarlet popping the rally it looks
3246s	like she wants to keep IES and Kindred
3248s	in the fight they want to keep the
3249s	pressure up I'm not sure how smart this
3251s	is without your Baptist there but they
3253s	can at least hold what ground they have
3255s	and help and help try and keep yippy kry
3258s	on the back foot here playing around
3259s	this corner Ekko going to pop the
3261s	duplicate there onto the Tracer going
3263s	into the backline trying to Route Around
3265s	car who seems to be seems to have
3267s	flanked the drainers but they just put
3269s	themselves into this little hallway of
3270s	death the pulse bomb comes out it's good
3273s	Kayla Falls gravitic flux from Kindred
3275s	lifts them up in the sky but they're
3277s	nowhere near the cart the only one left
3278s	alive to touch his sunshine and her life
3280s	is done that's going to be it drainers
3283s	take Nani and take the series
3286s	2 you have to have some serious
3288s	confidence to be in a 3v5 and continue
3290s	to hold position not back off the cart
3293s	they use the rally and it seems crazy at
3295s	the time but GP carry can't jump in
3297s	there's there's too much overheal they
3299s	have too much I would say crowd control
3301s	with the sigma to really like again you
3302s	don't overextend don't want to risk you
3304s	know just giving up the fight for free
3306s	but they just don't push when they have
3308s	the numbers of advantage and because of
3309s	that drainers again they stabilize on
3312s	the C they run back in they use the
3314s	duplicate they create chaos it looks
3316s	like they actually swapped who on attack
3318s	and defense if car was playing on the
3319s	stairwell like completely out of
3321s	position for Defenders I would say there
3323s	or at least not where you'd expect to
3324s	hold as a Defender
3326s	and from there it just seemed like their
3327s	number had been called they put up a
3329s	great fight especially I mean they kept
3331s	it close both Maps honestly were both
3333s	very very close came down to the wire
3335s	but drainers this is why they're one of
3337s	the top teams they get that two Z and
3339s	they start off this Swiss stage so so
3341s	strong it it did end up being
3343s	potentially closer than I think a lot of
3345s	people seeing this match up would have
3346s	initially thought you know all
3348s	throughout though gy carry they held
3349s	their own had some great plays Zep turn
3352s	constantly on point with a lot of those
3355s	uh mortality fields to help keep Kindred
3357s	alive help keep that aggression it helps
3359s	save you know helps save KJ when she
3362s	gets pulse bomb there like we saw in
3363s	that early replay a couple of misplays
3366s	from drainers and a couple of weird
3368s	positional routing from gy carry but the
3371s	team cohesion still feels like it's
3372s	there I have a feeling that yippy Cary
3374s	still has potential to get a couple wins
3375s	under their belt as we progress through
3377s	the Swiss rounds here but drainers are
3379s	going to be a team to watch out for
3381s	throughout the entirety of the Swiss
3382s	rounds and if they play like this and
3384s	clean up a few of those plays almost
3386s	certainly in the playoffs yeah I could
3389s	see ypp Cary as a dark horse I could
3391s	absolutely see them making the playoff
3392s	stage of how they play St I mean they
3393s	kept it close I I think especially on oh
3397s	this last point the third point on their
3399s	attack they could have gone for the full
3400s	cap this could have been extra rounds
3402s	just a few things to clean up and that's
3404s	the thing about a Swiss stage you know
3405s	you have so many games to play every
3406s	game you get a little bit stronger a
3408s	little bit more coordinated a little bit
3409s	more in the zone so they can keep this
3411s	momentum going even though it's a loss
3413s	you say hey like look at how well we
3415s	played such a good team drainers who are
3417s	I would say not guaranteed necessarily
3419s	but definitely expected to be in the
3420s	playoff like we took them to the Limit
3422s	we went 100 to zero them on the first
3424s	point of control that is not a statement
3427s	that a lot of teams can make in calling
3429s	all heroes so they can definitely keep
3430s	it going and make that playoff push they
3432s	got at least five more rounds in the
3434s	Swiss stage to make it happen so I'm
3436s	excited to see what they can do but
3437s	drainers again like they are a team to
3439s	watch out for absolutely it's like I
3441s	said yippy Cary they're Grinders you can
3443s	even see like Reese's fees here with
3445s	some incredible numbers on the Genji and
3447s	time and time again was coming up with
3449s	just what the the team needed to try and
3451s	stay alive to try and keep the push
3453s	alive to try and get that cart that last
3455s	extra little bit also to get the C9 but
3458s	also you know to open up fights a very
3460s	key player for yippi carry and I said
3462s	the again this team is full of Grinders
3464s	they've been together for a long a long
3466s	time reesei is one of the newer players
3468s	that has slotted in on this roster as of
3470s	late seems to be a real Boon for this
3473s	team and even though they lose 20 here
3475s	still still a team to watch out for
3477s	because we're seeing improvement from
3479s	this team they might not be on the
3480s	outside looking in for forever but drers
3484s	not letting him in today not just yet
3486s	going to have to go through the rest of
3487s	the Swiss rounds to see if you're able
3488s	to make it there drainers congrats on
3491s	the 20 a great start for the Swiss stage
3494s	there but yeah what else is there to say
3497s	what else is there to say but draer is
3498s	doing what was expected of them and
3499s	yippi carry looking pretty solid but not
3502s	quite there we can hear exactly what
3505s	drers has to say in just a few moments
3507s	we'll be doing an interview of one of
3509s	their players before that we're going to
3510s	be taking a short break to going your
3512s	folks because we have the interview

3914s	[Music]
3922s	welcome back everybody we have lane from
3925s	drainers joining us here for an
3927s	interview you one of their uh substitute
3929s	players but still definitely a key part
3932s	of their success Lan I want to go ahead
3934s	and hit you with an easy question right
3935s	out of the gate how does it feel to be
3937s	back for another calling all heroes
3939s	tournament um yeah it's great I like
3942s	playing even though I'm not playing
3944s	right now you know it's uh it's great I
3946s	like to compete I'm sure the other
3948s	people like to compete but I haven't
3949s	really spoken to them yet this weekend
3951s	so you
3953s	know well compete beting your team is
3955s	thus far you guys come off a two Victory
3959s	however a bit of a close one um I mean I
3961s	got to ask like what are your opinions
3963s	on how um Oasis went especially like
3965s	losing that first submap 0 to 100 uh I
3969s	don't know I didn't really watch the map
3971s	so uh I don't know just just like just
3974s	guess just like just like imagine what
3976s	happen and give us your Feb well I'm
3979s	going to imagine that we trolled because
3981s	we're that's probably pretty true
3982s	actually I I
3985s	all right well you know in theend end of
3988s	the day we won the map and that's all
3989s	that really matters so yeah it's true I
3992s	mean I got to say I think the mental
3993s	fortitude from you know losing a submap
3995s	like that to come back and then 21 and
3997s	then also get 100 Zer on the third one
3999s	is very very good it's very strong
4001s	mental fortitude um I got to ask you
4004s	know you guys drainers as a whole are
4006s	one of the top teams I would say in
4008s	calling all heroes at the moment are
4009s	there any teams that you're looking
4010s	forward to playing at throughout this
4011s	tournament or just watching your team
4013s	play uh uh uh Valiant because last time
4017s	we we like lost to them but that was
4019s	kind of fraud watch that wasn't really
4020s	real that didn't happen and this time
4023s	they don't have X10 to carry them and
4025s	Halo as well so it's kind of different
4026s	you know so yeah I'm I'm gu to go
4029s	against them all right all right calling
4031s	him out a little bit ahead of time
4032s	hopefully we do get to see that match
4034s	and you know you know I actually
4036s	honestly I hope that we uh we get to see
4037s	you slotted in there to get a little bit
4039s	of uh your taste of things there are you
4041s	uh are there any other teams that you're
4042s	looking forward to playing or are you
4043s	just dead set on uh face and Valiant
4046s	Guardians making it all the way to the
4048s	playoffs I don't know what other teams
4049s	are in the tournament I haven't checked

5060s	welcome back everybody to calling Heroes
5063s	the Toronto defiant rise together minor
5066s	3 I am CB joined by Jag and we have a
5071s	very very high well a high octane
5074s	matchup setup for the Swiss round two
5076s	we're right in the middle of the Swiss
5077s	rounds but before we get to that let's
5079s	have a quick little look at the standing
5081s	see how everyone's performing see uh
5083s	where things are shaken out after that
5085s	first round of wins and
5087s	losses yeah I think the most interesting
5089s	thing is that Valiant Guardians in a
5091s	despite getting that first round round
5093s	win did struggle had to go to that map
5095s	three had to go all the way to push to
5097s	get the job done not something you'd
5099s	exactly expect especially from Valiant
5101s	Guardians who are one of the top teams
5103s	at this event finished second at the
5105s	last event but overall I would say it's
5108s	about what I'd expect I mean we haven't
5110s	seen Jerry nightmare just yet they did
5112s	get a buy one team gets at least at
5114s	least one team gets a buy every round
5116s	just because we have an odd number of
5117s	teams here at this event other than that
5119s	I think this is about what I would
5121s	expect after the first round of the swis
5122s	state
5123s	there's there's a couple teams down
5124s	there in the lower end like bad blood or
5126s	as a thought that you might expect to be
5128s	a little bit higher but you know we're
5130s	only one round end and sometimes your
5132s	first Swiss round doesn't go as planned
5134s	you get a slow start or you get to go up
5135s	against a Washington Timeless or a
5137s	valiant guardians or potentially a
5138s	drainers and it just doesn't pan out but
5141s	there's still plenty of time to shape up
5144s	which makes it all the more interesting
5146s	that we're going to kick things off with
5148s	Washington Timeless versus Valiant
5150s	Guardians as our next game up potential
5153s	playoff finals caliber matchup and we're
5155s	getting it in Swiss round two I mean
5158s	this is one heck of a banger match up
5162s	right out of the get-go second round and
5164s	we're getting the two teams that were
5165s	finalists in The Last minor the not only
5168s	in the grand finals but also in the
5169s	upper bracket final and I mean there's
5171s	some tea there uh Valiant Guardians
5173s	actually knocked Washington ESS to that
5175s	lower bracket and then Washington
5176s	Timeless beat them in that Grand Final
5178s	so these two teams have you know been
5180s	sharing blows they've been taking Maps
5183s	series off each other there's no real I
5185s	would say favorite coming out of the
5187s	gate which is what makes this so
5188s	exciting and like this is not just for
5191s	like obviously you want to go as
5193s	undefeated as you can in the Swiss stage
5194s	but there is so much more at stake this
5196s	is for Pride this is for bragging rights
5198s	and this could be for momentum later on
5200s	when they eventually were assuming uh
5202s	rematch in that playoff bracket and this
5206s	match it's an onion right there's layers
5208s	to this because not only is it a playoff
5210s	caliber match not only have these two
5211s	teams met before not not only have they
5213s	traded blow for blow they've also traded
5215s	a couple of players we have players like
5217s	Halo who previously played for Valiant
5219s	Guardians now playing on Washington
5221s	Timeless I believe as a starting
5222s	position on that roster you have you
5225s	know Washington Timeless making some new
5226s	changes you have Valiant Guardians also
5228s	making some roster changes but a lot of
5230s	the core pieces of both of these teams
5232s	are still in play and still just as
5234s	dangerous and just as deadly as they've
5237s	ever been and I mean we might just be
5239s	getting a little bit of a preview of
5241s	what the grand finals of this tournament
5242s	and up looking like I I fully expect
5245s	both of these teams to make it to play
5246s	off so the lookout for these two teams
5248s	to get an early uh you like you said
5250s	bragging right just a little bit of a
5252s	get one over on the other one we haven't
5254s	seen a lot of all chat yet but like I I
5256s	just want to see the all chat fly I want
5257s	to see the ha we beat you earlier on you
5259s	know we beat you in round two of Swiss
5261s	can't beat us now yeah it's GG's it's
5263s	over it doesn't matter if we see you
5264s	again later on but we're going to see
5266s	exactly what those lineups look like and
5268s	I know you hinted at it just a little
5271s	bit but there is H Halo in the starting
5273s	lineup and I mean this is a player
5275s	absolutely look out for I love that
5277s	sniper also they put Mercy as their
5279s	favorite player as well as sosler you
5280s	know just we got a lot of Mercy lovers
5282s	out here as again you can get their skin
5284s	by watching the stream but I think Halo
5286s	is like the big name to look out for
5287s	former OverWatch League player uh was
5289s	just recently A New York exeler
5291s	previously but before that the Boston
5292s	Uprising as well um and now that they
5295s	swap teams like this could like really
5297s	tilt this like I would say rivalry in
5298s	their favor I do love me a little bit of
5301s	tank Mercy that's my preferred of
5302s	playing Mercy is to Front Line take as
5304s	much damage as possible yeah run out
5307s	just with the the Blaster out trying to
5309s	do as much damage as possible before my
5310s	short life expires I don't think that's
5313s	what snipers going to be played they're
5314s	known a little bit more as one of the
5316s	better sigmas in all of Washington
5318s	Timeless or sorry in all of calling all
5320s	heroes but for Washington Timeless
5322s	they're going to be a huge Boon they've
5324s	had such a successful run with this
5326s	roster and if Sigma is shaving out to be
5328s	a little bit more and more meta like we
5330s	saw from the grand finals of Florida
5332s	Mayhem at OverWatch League like we saw
5334s	drainers hint at just a little bit like
5336s	I said trying on that new pair of shoes
5339s	this could be a very dangerous roster
5341s	and snaz and BN as a DPS core definitely
5344s	nothing to sneeze at there's a lot of
5345s	Talent on this roster and I'm just
5347s	curious to see how the addition of Halo
5349s	shapes this whole rounds this whole
5351s	roster out I feel like New York exceler
5354s	Academy is the gift that just keeps on
5355s	giving to other teams it was such a
5356s	stacked lineup they were one of the
5358s	favorites in calling all heroes and Bun
5360s	now moving over to that roster we're
5362s	going to see what she can do I mean
5363s	she's one of the best DPS in the scene
5365s	by far we got to cast her during thr of
5367s	uh defiant Pride cup a few months ago
5369s	and she was absolutely fragging out in
5371s	that one but now Valiant Guardians we're
5373s	going to see what they bring to the
5375s	table moving fish S one of my favorite
5379s	tanks and not only Callo Heroes but all
5380s	of kleich love seeing what they do on
5382s	red birs actually got to cast them on
5384s	land for the Intel inspires kle
5386s	Championship just a few months ago uh I
5388s	don't think they took the W there but
5391s	still they played out out of their mind
5393s	and again like this is another lineup
5395s	like whips also very talented in that
5397s	hit scan role yeah he's a pretty great
5400s	hit scan player and if given space to to
5402s	make some plays with there can be one to
5404s	watch out for might be popping up on the
5405s	kill feed from time to time and again I
5407s	like that you bring up moving fish a
5409s	well-known player from that red Bird's
5410s	roster was typically slotted into that
5412s	roster to play some of the off tank
5414s	roles which I think makes it kind of
5416s	interesting because moving fish also was
5418s	typically slotted in you know back in
5420s	the day when they were playing for red
5421s	birds often tank basically meant you
5423s	come in to play Sigma on circuit Royale
5425s	so Sigma might be like the key thing
5428s	that both of these players you know
5429s	moving fish versus sniper that they're
5431s	going to try and bust out and you know
5433s	we'll see who gets the better of it or
5434s	we'll see if I'm just completely wrong
5436s	and one of these other players has
5437s	something better that they have in their
5439s	back pocket that they want to come out
5440s	here with but regardless that's the
5442s	head-to-head that I want to see but you
5444s	can look at any position on either of
5446s	these rosters and pick the head-to-head
5447s	and it's probably going to be a banger
5449s	either way support for support DPS for
5451s	DPS hit scan for hit scan where do you
5454s	even
5454s	begin I think we got to talk about
5456s	coaches really quickly I mean Le now the
5458s	coach of valiant Guardians I do not
5460s	believe that they were the coach at the
5462s	time of their last matchup uh during the
5465s	Washington Justice minor so this is a
5467s	whole new mindset you know coaches can
5469s	completely change of strategy it's also
5471s	you know there's a little bit of a
5472s	difference in the support lineup as we
5473s	talked about Halen moving from Valiant
5474s	Guardians to Washington Timeless but I
5477s	really want to see what Le does how you
5479s	know these compositions are molded
5481s	because you know as a former player for
5482s	New York sucel here for the Houston
5483s	Outlaws they have a lot of experience at
5485s	the highest level of play and that
5486s	brings a lot of knowledge into that
5489s	coaching role so that could actually be
5491s	the biggest difference here today yeah
5493s	the coaching staff the management staff
5495s	on both these team is also an integral
5496s	part of their success and I'm looking
5498s	forward to seeing what they've all
5500s	cooked you know what's really sad is
5501s	that both of these teams can't have
5503s	Flawless Swiss stages because we have
5505s	this matchup here one of them is going
5506s	to have a blemish on their record at
5508s	least one because there's still four
5509s	rounds after this that they could
5511s	potentially amass another loss or two
5513s	you know again with teams like drainers
5515s	waiting in the wings you never know that
5517s	team did in fact best both of these
5519s	teams in that kunoichi Kur fuffle
5520s	between the last minor and now but that
5523s	does not mean that these two teams are
5525s	not deadly are not dangerous we'll see
5527s	who the more deadly of the two is when
5529s	we go in to our first map here yeah and
5533s	it is going to be le Jong Tower again
5535s	this was predetermined already uh next
5538s	round is going to be Antarctic Peninsula
5539s	if you want a little sneak peek at that
5541s	but here on Le Jong Tower I think this
5543s	one is going to be very very interesting
5545s	I feel like Le Jong Tower is one of the
5547s	control Maps where it has kind of the
5548s	most unique set of compositional play
5551s	Styles like I feel like each kind of
5552s	submap plays a little bit differently
5554s	control center very brawl Centric we've
5557s	seen a lot of symmetra on I'm just going
5559s	to call it Market because it really
5560s	depends on you know the map filter and
5562s	the day filter now Night Market date
5564s	Market yeah one of the two I feel like
5566s	you it's kind of more of a poke comp and
5567s	then Garden has always been a bit dive
5569s	heavy but as we've seen these teams you
5571s	know on the bond in the last series
5573s	didn't really do that much dive there
5575s	was some attempts but overall it was a
5577s	lot of poke a lot of brawl is what we
5579s	saw and I'm curious to see if that Trend
5581s	continues we are going to be starting on
5583s	day Market it is the day so that will
5586s	give us a really nice sneak peek of I
5588s	mean I'm expecting Sigma comps like I'm
5589s	expecting like either like they TP
5591s	through and try to set up on point or
5593s	maybe they just try to fight out kind of
5594s	in the courtyard um away from the point
5598s	but I'm expecting Sigma yeah I I I've
5600s	talked at ADN and will contines to do so
5603s	until everyone is sick of me about the
5604s	prevalence of Bastion in the current
5606s	climate of competitive OverWatch and you
5608s	know both of these teams are going to be
5609s	teams that are ahead of the curve that
5611s	are at the Forefront of that playing
5613s	what is best for them and you looking at
5615s	Washington Timeless this looks like
5617s	exactly the kind of composition that I
5618s	would expect that's that Florida Mayhem
5620s	composition though with the May there
5622s	Valiant Guardians I don't know how I
5624s	feel about coming out here with a
5626s	doomfist though round it can work I mean
5629s	especially with the far Pharmacy like
5631s	you create chaos the pharmacy just Rains
5633s	Down from above one thing that I forgot
5634s	to mention is that aramore actually
5635s	isn't able to play uh this week so this
5638s	is a bit of a different maybe supporting
5640s	lineup That Valiant Guardians would want
5642s	to run in general um so they might be
5644s	trying to play some more Comfort picks
5645s	like maybe they want to go for the
5646s	pharmacy because they prefer Mercy just
5648s	with who they're running here so you
5650s	know making those adjustments we'll have
5651s	to see if it works well there I it can
5654s	work but they can't get run up on like
5656s	if the sigma gets too much space or the
5658s	Bastion gets too much space like there's
5659s	not much Val Guardians can do but they
5660s	get the first pick yeah that's quite a
5663s	bit of value right there chis with a
5664s	nice two-piece there takes down bun as
5666s	well with the the mercy pocket from KO
5668s	playing dividends but she flies a little
5670s	bit too close to the Sun and Orion is
5672s	more than happy to make that Icarus fall
5674s	back down to Earth but that said valot
5676s	Guardians even despite losing chado in
5679s	that fight look to take this first point
5682s	pretty cleanly she gets res right back
5684s	up and this is where I'm a little bit
5686s	worried for Washington Timeless they
5687s	don't have a true hit scan player except
5689s	for orian on the Baptist at I do like
5692s	these swaps they're actually going to
5693s	swap the diva which can just kind of fly
5695s	up into the pharmacy but BN sosler yeah
5698s	yes hit scan technically but they're
5700s	such short range hit G they really won't
5701s	be able to deal with this far in this
5703s	guy so it's going to be up the trumu to
5705s	continue to run into them or they might
5706s	just try to avoid them completely take
5708s	the objective I think Guardians they got
5710s	to make a move where they might get this
5711s	up for free yeah they're playing a very
5713s	scattershot composition where they want
5714s	to be all over the place and try and
5715s	swarm Washington Timeless and Washington
5717s	Timeless have fallen right into that
5719s	trap and they're going to lose Halo as a
5721s	result there that's a great early
5722s	pickoff there a lot of the speed a lot
5724s	of the maneuverability now taken off the
5726s	field as will the rest of the team be if
5727s	jado has anything to say about it she's
5730s	on the hunt and still has that pocket
5731s	Mercy Carol actually does get cleaned up
5734s	there so that pocket Mercy now off the
5736s	field but doesn't really matter because
5738s	I think enough work has already been
5740s	done for Valiant Guardians to hold on
5742s	tight to not only the point but to a
5744s	Full House of ultimates and this stagger
5746s	On A TRU is so impressive just does get
5749s	hacked out but she's able to run away
5751s	they're going to have everything
5752s	including n in just a few moments I
5754s	Guardians are playing this to Perfection
5756s	I really think they need a cidy and Ash
5759s	maybe even a solder 76 just something
5761s	that's a little bit more long range DPS
5762s	because shado is just running around for
5764s	free right now and as long as Val
5766s	Guardians don't use like everything here
5768s	they should be able to to win the next
5769s	two fights on ultimates alone I mean
5771s	speaking of ultimates here comes a nano
5772s	potentially with a barrage but don't
5773s	even need it Halo gets a little bit too
5775s	close to shado again and the rockets
5777s	just going to take that Lucio out I mean
5779s	I don't even know if Halo's going to
5780s	have a chance to build up a sound
5782s	barrier this entire match here but
5784s	Washington Timeless they find the flip
5785s	there but doesn't really matter moving
5787s	fish is taken down too and like another
5791s	easy hold coming out for valian guard or
5793s	not hold but going to be a flip 16% for
5795s	Washington Timeless that's going to be a
5796s	little bit annoying and prevent this
5798s	from going into one fight territory but
5800s	now that's about where we are I mean
5802s	they actually have a chance to win this
5803s	now that flip could be huge the EMP is
5805s	ready to go but they lose the ksun rush
5808s	orian is taken Offline that is disas
5812s	they still do have you know potential to
5815s	out for a bit especially self you get on
5816s	the point you just use it there and then
5817s	you get the REM so there are wions still
5820s	even without the K rush but they got to
5822s	move quickly and EMP going to come out
5824s	from bun and they do take down moving
5826s	fish they do also have presence on the
5827s	points they might actually be able to
5828s	find the flip there that's a great heads
5831s	up EMP there and a nice back cap there
5832s	from sosler and Washington Timeless with
5835s	the aid of the EM do seem to be winning
5836s	the fight Sombra hasn't had that rework
5839s	yet doesn't have virus so you know
5840s	Valley and guardian to worry about bomy
5842s	Buddy being stalled on their computer
5844s	but they do have to worry about Orion
5846s	and trumu going in deep there just
5849s	making a swap over onto the Genji yeah
5852s	it was just you know it was just for fun
5853s	I mean that was definitely on purpose to
5855s	get rid of the ultimate because it looks
5857s	like the whole team is making a swap
5858s	everyone has swapped so they've
5859s	completely changed his composition
5860s	around but I I have to wonder they had
5863s	ultimates at their disposal still and
5864s	now they have nothing Wasing Timeless
5866s	have completely flipped the script it's
5867s	99 to 46 and now they have everything in
5870s	their disposal and you can see already
5872s	they're going to be using that ksun Rush
5873s	the P Spa from sosler goes wide though
5875s	but a nice 2K there from Halo the Boop
5878s	taken down M and whisp and that is a
5880s	great way to kick off this fight 60% for
5882s	Washington Timeless and Counting as they
5884s	just mop the floor with Valiant
5886s	Guardians a great play from
5889s	Halo and this felt personal I was going
5892s	to say Halo actually felt like she was
5893s	getting targeted early on I noticed she
5894s	was falling a lot she definitely was
5896s	yeah that's your you know that's my ex-
5898s	teammate I got to show them up now going
5899s	to make them wish they were still
5900s	playing for us but
5902s	that sound wave the double sound wave
5903s	gets two boops right off the map that is
5905s	a huge fight win and they still have
5907s	self-destruct they still have sound
5908s	barrier they're going to use up to go
5910s	aggressive super super aggressive and
5912s	that looked like it might have been
5913s	another Boop there but doesn't quite get
5915s	any much of anything that said though
5917s	mean Pops that uh immortality field it's
5920s	going to fall Carol gets the better of
5921s	Halo in that exchange but sniper going
5922s	to go ahead and invest that
5924s	self-destruct it's just going to amount
5926s	to a whole bunch of charge there for
5927s	moving fish who is trying to beam down
5930s	anything that D shows face but Orion
5932s	with a nice little kunai head shot there
5934s	we're at 9998 but chado on the Genji is
5937s	finally paying dividends and valan
5939s	Guardians they flip the point they've
5941s	taken it and it's just Orion to try and
5943s	contest Halo goes in for the touch but
5945s	Orion dies to the Swift step there and
5947s	Halo to the blade Valley and Guardians
5950s	at a close one are going to take day
5953s	Market that was only one submap I feel
5955s	like we just went through all of Le Jong
5957s	Ty with how back and forth how close
5959s	that was I want four maps of this give
5961s	me the time Breer this is exactly why
5963s	these two teams were in the last grand
5965s	finals they play to each other so well
5968s	Washington ESS with an insane comeback
5970s	with valali guardians make the swap it
5973s	was such a risk but a calculated race
5975s	they did the math CB and the numbers
5977s	came out in their favor the comp swamp
5980s	it takes a while to build those
5981s	ultimates but they get them just in time
5982s	for that last fight and it is such a
5985s	Difference Maker such a well read change
5988s	that they made that could have not you
5990s	know that could have gone horribly wrong
5991s	for another team that maybe isn't as
5992s	disciplined isn't as well prepared but
5994s	they take that first submap now we're
5995s	moving to gens they're going to be going
5997s	actually for a Jugger Queen and Tru is
6000s	going to be bringing out doomfist
6001s	themselves I'm interested to see that
6003s	Halo is not going to be going back to
6005s	the Lucio cuz this feels like the Lucio
6007s	map here on on leang Tower but instead
6010s	opting for the brg and I think they
6012s	might have expected Valley and Guardians
6013s	to come out with a doomfist of their own
6015s	and try and play a little bit of counter
6016s	dive I'm curious if any swaps are going
6018s	to happen as the two teams are still
6020s	just kind of in the Poke phase right now
6021s	not really engaging all that much sniper
6023s	going in to try and bait out a little
6024s	bit of cool downs and see if there's an
6026s	opportunity to go in a little bit more
6028s	aggressive but valan Guardians have
6030s	their feet firmly planted on the point
6032s	and no one from Washington Timeless is
6034s	primed to dislodge them just yet sniper
6036s	goes in again pops up the power block
6038s	and not getting a whole lot of damage
6040s	there gets that power up punch but goes
6042s	a little bit wide and yeah this should
6044s	be valali and Guardians C in the first
6046s	point
6047s	here surely right but sniper able to get
6050s	out they do get bumped on and the point
6052s	goes way so it's a 44 a huge an on the
6054s	point that forc out immortality field oh
6057s	I mean this is so back and forth right
6059s	now yeah I mean the fact that trumu is
6062s	able to stay alive is kind of everything
6063s	there if you had lost them you wouldn't
6065s	have been able to go back in but they do
6067s	go back in and that is a lot of players
6069s	onto one moving fish feeling quite Out
6071s	of Water there and as might be
6073s	Washington Timeless starting to uh make
6074s	a case but flipping the point here some
6076s	nice sticky bombs from bun and the
6078s	follow up there to take down Caro and
6080s	yeah this is like all Washington
6082s	Timeless in the kill feed right now the
6084s	flip comes through only 28% to kick it
6086s	off for Valiant Guardians they swapped
6088s	from the juger queen to the zarya right
6089s	away was just using the sh to get out of
6091s	spawn a little bit more movement speed
6093s	the zarya into the doomfist is a very
6094s	interesting match up and I'm honestly
6095s	not sure who wins I think if you have
6097s	your bubbles generally as zarya like you
6099s	can stop like the CC the crowd control
6100s	from coming through of the punch but you
6102s	can see that like sniper just living for
6104s	free just able to get out of some insane
6106s	situations and that's a big part of why
6108s	washing are able to win that one out now
6109s	they have a lot of uls atos the over how
6111s	do he feel the thr out again really
6112s	early on and so is the sound
6126s	barrier Koo with a nice Boop there onto
6128s	sosler that's a great opening there for
6130s	Vali and Guardians after all the ults
6132s	that they invested to try and come
6133s	through here it's got to amount to a
6135s	little bit more though because the more
6137s	this the longer this fight takes the
6138s	more percentage valali and guard or
6140s	watching time are going to get the
6142s	dragon blade comes out from bun and
6144s	trumu goes in for a nice little
6146s	two-piece and despite the investment
6147s	from valali guardians Washington
6148s	Timeless hold strong it's very expensive
6152s	though the dramatic pause leads up to an
6153s	epic fight and they use three ultimates
6155s	there it takes a lot for watching
6157s	Timeless to sustain there that guards
6158s	are actually in a great spot they have
6160s	the graviton as well as the blade ready
6163s	to go so as long as they can lock down a
6164s	few people there's no immortality bu
6166s	that can really stop them from getting a
6167s	lot of value immediately they're going
6169s	to use the overclock to try to create
6170s	some distance get some damage in it's
6173s	not going to really amount to much
6174s	besides stalling killing some time off
6176s	the clock which is better than nothing
6178s	but now Guardians like they got to go
6180s	for this fight Now quickly now that
6181s	that's offline and they're going to do
6183s	just that graviton surge comes out whisp
6184s	with a nice two-piece right into that
6186s	and chado has the blade if she needs it
6188s	but snaz takes her down and Valley and
6190s	Guardians despite losing that one don't
6192s	have a whole lot of players left they
6193s	can stall this out to 99 but tru's life
6196s	is on the clock not going to last all
6198s	that much longer 96 is where it's stop
6201s	and Valiant Guardians flip the point
6202s	back in their favor and that's such a
6204s	good discipline like my thought is use
6206s	the blade confirm that fight when move
6208s	the gravit H they just use the graviton
6210s	and that's it they just go in
6211s	aggressively they have a very high
6213s	charge moving fish who's just running in
6215s	with them with the primary fire as well
6217s	as the alternate fire and they might
6218s	able to get a huge blade
6220s	flank what a what a dragon blade there
6223s	that one was just for sosler but with
6225s	that out of the way bun takes down wisp
6228s	we have a little bit of a DPS for DPS
6229s	trade but you got to think that with the
6231s	positioning that's going to favor
6233s	Valiant Guardians they also have support
6234s	ultimates if they need to withstand but
6236s	bun melts down chado and there wasn't a
6238s	sound barrier or an immortality field to
6241s	try and keep her alive and now
6242s	Washington Timeless they have a way in
6244s	sound barrier comes out from Carol but
6246s	doesn't catch much of anything it's
6248s	definitely not enough to save mean who's
6249s	going to fall sniper going in deep but a
6252s	little bit of a trade support for
6253s	support with Halo still alive to keep
6255s	watching them Timeless up in the fight
6257s	meteor strike comes down just to keep
6259s	sniper alive it's still back and forth
6261s	but this favors Valiant Guardians as
6264s	long as they're able to keep it going
6265s	but Washington Timeless they get the
6266s	flip and at 96% there has to be a touch
6269s	can anybody come in it's not going to be
6271s	moving fish especially if Halo has
6273s	anything to say about it she pops the
6274s	rally so much over health so much the
6277s	chunk through and I don't think it's
6278s	going to be enough for Valiant Guardians
6280s	to chunk through this is going to be
6282s	Washington Timeless holding strong on
6284s	Gardens Halo showing her old team who is
6287s	boss right there I I don't know if we
6290s	have an angle of it but I'm pretty sure
6292s	that they just used the whip flail
6293s	straight into moving fish as they were
6295s	trying to jump across the barrier with
6297s	their punch knock them straight into the
6299s	water let them sleep with the fishies
6301s	and then the rally on top of that the
6303s	sustain with the over Health as well as
6306s	the shield B actually hitting a stun in
6308s	the ultimate form just all Halo all the
6311s	time in that last engagement helps them
6313s	Force now what is going to be our third
6314s	point of control it's going to be
6318s	control center yep here it is yeah yeah
6321s	if you if you know that enemy you know
6322s	exactly what they're going to try and
6324s	Pull and Halo was not born yesterday she
6326s	knows that team well she knows exactly
6328s	what moving fish wanted to go for there
6330s	and said no we're holding strong this is
6333s	a Washington Timeless Point here and
6335s	hopefully so will be control center as
6337s	they go back to that Sigma composition
6339s	that didn't work out too well for them
6342s	on night market and vant Guardians are
6344s	pulling out the uh the Boston Uprising
6346s	comp from playoffs running that orisa
6348s	maybe expecting a Ry or a juner queen
6350s	they can run into it's going to be Sigma
6351s	which I think makes this a little bit
6352s	more difficult to execute but you can
6353s	still play very aggressively and in
6355s	their face yeah moving with the spear
6358s	spinning there the wall though they
6359s	might get caught up but they do that's
6361s	such a great wall there from bun and
6363s	that's going to be enough to melt down
6364s	moving fish and the rest of valiant
6366s	Guardians have to be on the back foot
6368s	they're scattered as Washington Tim just
6370s	March forward and should take the first
6372s	cap here almost for free one cool down
6375s	one Dead tank one easy capture and that
6379s	t so much moving fish orisa is one of
6381s	the best tanks in the game at surv have
6383s	to swap to match yeah they do they have
6386s	to go for a m themselves they're still
6387s	going to stick with the orisa so they're
6388s	probably going to try to use it as a
6389s	counter wall more so than as an
6390s	engagement wall if they get caught off
6393s	uh like that exactly like they get
6394s	caught off by the walls they're going to
6395s	use it to create separation but now they
6397s	finally get some push in Oran though
6400s	very close to the ant Matrix I'm
6401s	assuming it's going to fly momentarily
6403s	as soon as they get it online it's very
6405s	difficult for Washington Timeless to try
6406s	and play into this because you have
6408s	moving fish just moving right at you
6409s	like a snowplow with those ja avin and
6411s	with those amp Matrix coming up for mean
6413s	they're going to go ahead and match it
6414s	but sosler with the early pickoff there
6416s	onto whsp and Valiant Guardians are
6418s	following left and right that amp Matrix
6420s	not getting them a whole lot of purchase
6421s	and that's another easy Fight Win for
6424s	Washington Timeless Shield beat spinny
6427s	thing that's all I'm going to say the
6428s	sigma Shield is so huge in this scenario
6430s	as well as the ktic grass you eat a
6431s	bunch of damage and sure I mean withis
6433s	you can do that as well but it's just
6435s	not nearly as much whis just doesn't
6438s	have that same sort of safety that same
6440s	tank to really protect them as much
6441s	usually mov is to be going in all the
6443s	time they don't have that same
6444s	protection it's going to be now the
6446s	artillery strike out as well as it's
6448s	such a lethal combo we'll see if it
6450s	finds much with anything KO pops the
6451s	sound barrier to try and make sure that
6453s	it doesn't but Tado was just a little
6455s	bit too low and Halo clean that one
6457s	right up Bun not going to let moving
6459s	fish get out 70% and Counting and valali
6461s	and Guardians have yet to find a way to
6464s	get in the door cuz Washington Timeless
6466s	just keeps slamming it right back in
6467s	their face oh that could have been a
6470s	great dagger on the a great first pick
6472s	over extension if they were able to get
6474s	that but instead they're going to have
6475s	to find a way to the point 15 seconds
6476s	they got to speed through this and hope
6478s	they can get as many people there
6479s	they're going to find the bast hello
6481s	sosler what are you doing my friend wh
6484s	just going to go ahead and melt down
6485s	sosler but that was like blizzard
6487s	invested for just that kill but I think
6488s	to get rid of the Bastion that is
6490s	probably worth it is that's going to
6492s	really hinder Washington timeless'
6493s	ability to take space and speaking of
6495s	taking space Valiant Guardians are going
6497s	to do just that Force the remnants of
6499s	Washington time was back flip the point
6501s	in their favor and Matrix coming out
6503s	from Orion to try and keep the fight
6505s	alive but having flipped the points they
6507s	have to be swift here the terch comes
6509s	out from REM moving fish it does a lot
6510s	of damage but not as much as trumu does
6512s	in return but wisps still alive still
6515s	kicking and still kicking Washington
6517s	Timeless off the point you only have
6519s	this Sigma and Halo just trying to keep
6522s	trumu alive not able to do so Valiant
6524s	Guardians have finally stti their claim
6526s	and gotten on the board chisato
6529s	dedicates the blizzard to only one
6530s	member but if you can get the
6531s	elimination off of that it's worth I
6532s	think a lot of people like overestimate
6535s	like the value that like Earth shatter
6537s	or blizzard like these AOE abilities
6538s	need to get if you can lo down one kill
6540s	and win the fight off of that that is
6541s	all you need and there they do it to
6543s	Perfection it was desperate times it's
6544s	even more desperate times they lose
6545s	moving fish again bun sets up her team
6548s	for just amazing fight wins it's such a
6551s	good wall chado has to go for one as
6552s	well but it's just not the same it just
6554s	doesn't work out and the rest of to
6556s	Wasington Timeless just going to March
6558s	forward and completely evict Val and
6560s	guard from the point aside from that one
6562s	little fight there control center was
6564s	all Washington Timeless all the time
6567s	they never once well only once but
6570s	nearly never once took their foot off
6573s	the gas firmly in the driver's seat the
6574s	whole time and Washington Timeless run
6577s	it back and take Le Jang Tower two to
6579s	one what a performance you said
6582s	hopefully it's their map it was
6584s	definitely their map yeah they give up
6586s	the point I mean they give up 50% which
6588s	is honestly more than they probably
6590s	should have because that flip happened
6591s	way before that fight ended but other
6593s	than that very Flawless they had a
6595s	strategy of using that maywell and Bun
6598s	executed it to absolute perfection I
6601s	mean every time they needed a wall to
6603s	cut off moving fish it was there and
6605s	every time they were able to cut off
6606s	moving fish moving fish die it's just
6608s	that simple it's a two-step plan and it
6611s	was just every time it worked out that
6614s	was I mean that was the game plan for
6615s	Washington timeless it was just put up
6617s	the wall and push go but when the game
6619s	plan didn't go according to plan it was
6621s	Halo that actually ended up being the
6623s	clutch player for Washington Timeless
6625s	that helped win them some very key
6627s	points on leang Tower what a steal to
6630s	take Halo from Valiant Guardians bring
6632s	her to your own roster and then come out
6634s	with those big boops like that you know
6636s	we're obviously looking at her getting
6638s	you know direct impacted by chisato's
6639s	Rockets but as soon as she was given the
6641s	opportunity to clap back she went
6643s	absolutely massive shouts out to Halo
6646s	for that one but all of Washington
6647s	Timeless for just having it all together
6650s	on Le Tower and if they keep up this
6652s	Tempo can valali and Guardians you know
6655s	find their way back into this series or
6657s	is Washington Timeless just primed run
6658s	away with this one I think there's
6661s	plenty of opportunities for them to get
6662s	back this I'm expecting flash point at
6664s	the very least like I was saying before
6665s	give me push give me map four I could
6667s	absolutely see it happening but we got
6670s	to get there first I think the biggest
6671s	thing for Valiant Guardians is it seems
6673s	like they had a lot of different comps
6674s	up their sleeves I mean both teams in
6676s	Washington Timeless as well pull out a
6677s	few different looks but that Pharmacy
6680s	was not something I expected to see
6681s	whatsoever the far Mercy In The Sky did
6684s	so much for that first point and even
6686s	when they swap PS like they already had
6688s	99% we didn't really see that same sort
6690s	of I would say perfection right out the
6692s	gate like later on like we didn't see
6694s	them be able to just like take the first
6697s	cap take that first fight win it seemed
6698s	like they really struggled outside of
6699s	having that Pharmacy so I'd love to see
6701s	them get a little bit weird with it try
6703s	to go for some more funky sort of stuff
6704s	that's like more in their wheelhouse
6706s	because that was a really big reason why
6709s	they were able to win out on um day
6711s	Market from the Geto and it seems like
6713s	on control center on Gans uh not as much
6716s	success and I was actually really
6718s	surprised they didn't run the pharmacy
6719s	on Gardens I feel like that's a great
6721s	map for it we see a lot of time you go
6722s	for like that bridge play where you try
6724s	to knock them off um with the Boop
6726s	ability that she has but none of that
6728s	like ever came into our screens it's
6731s	it's interesting if we want to talk
6732s	about like compositions I did like the
6734s	doomfist look from Valiant Guardians
6736s	with the Farmery but there might not be
6738s	a whole lot of other Maps where you can
6739s	realistically get away with that and I'm
6741s	a little bit worried because when it
6742s	came down to what we kind of expect the
6745s	meta to fall into currently again that
6747s	that grand finals championship winning
6749s	Florida Mayhem composition Washington
6751s	Timeless look a lot more well-versed in
6753s	it they seem to have the pieces together
6755s	they're playing that Sigma to Perfection
6757s	they've got the uh you know they got the
6758s	Bastion the May and even the sojourn
6760s	looks that they can throw in there and
6762s	you can have a look at the Bastion play
6765s	coming out on uh on either side here it
6767s	was definitely snoer getting the better
6769s	of whis there not by much but especially
6772s	when you get down to the bottom of that
6773s	list there the eliminations and the
6775s	eliminations per 10 good Lord the elims
6778s	per 10 snaz was putting in there oh my
6780s	goodness what wait wait what what what
6783s	am I looking at I don't think I've ever
6784s	seen eliminations per 10 that high but I
6787s	mean it's not just the tank we talked
6788s	about the tank not having fun with
6789s	Bastion no one's having fun in this
6791s	Lobby except the Bastion player when
6793s	they are just putting out that much
6795s	misery and damage and eliminations I
6798s	mean it's it's eliminations it's not
6799s	final blows when you're pumping out that
6801s	much damage as a Bastion and things are
6802s	falling left and right of course you're
6804s	going to be pading your elimination stat
6806s	there just a little bit and I think
6808s	sosler might have a chance to continue
6810s	to do just that cuz like I said you know
6812s	Washington Timeless they have this
6814s	really really strong composition that
6816s	they seem to be better versed in than
6818s	Valiant Guardians you can even see when
6820s	Valiant Guardians tried to mirror it for
6822s	their own their own sake they went with
6823s	the Arisa variation of it which you know
6825s	like you said Boston Uprising tried that
6827s	as well but it didn't work out for them
6829s	in the end it wasn't quite good enough
6831s	and when you're playing like Washington
6833s	Timeless is it's a tough nut to crack
6835s	it's so difficult to overcome it's like
6837s	that Ryan Rush comp but you just can't
6839s	get close to it cuz the sigma gives you
6841s	more range yeah Commander x one of the
6844s	coaches for spinfire made a really good
6845s	video kind of describing um how the
6848s	orisa comp is better than the Ryan comp
6849s	and it's like like you just play Corners
6851s	better but doesn't matter how many
6852s	corners you play better if there is a
6854s	May wall in your way and you know even
6856s	wave golden even with the spino ability
6858s	that orisa has just can't Escape just
6861s	didn't have enough survivability and now
6863s	Washington Timeless they are up one zero
6864s	which means Valiant Guardians it's going
6865s	to be their map pick for number zero and
6868s	we're going back to Nani this seems to
6870s	be a favorite so far at calling all
6872s	heroes at least what we've seen so far
6873s	on stream all the teams want to play
6875s	this and I'm expecting more of the S
6877s	what we saw before I think we're going
6878s	to see a lot of Sigma once again
6881s	potentially so that might so this might
6883s	be the same question is last time where
6885s	I was like you know maybe they want to
6886s	play some of the dive compositions but
6888s	is that a trap and it very well might be
6890s	because we saw moving fish come up with
6891s	the doomfist and it kind of worked we
6894s	saw shado on the far and it kind of
6895s	worked with the mercy pocket we see a
6897s	lot of echo we see a lot of dive
6899s	compositions on numani this could be
6900s	something that Valiant Guardians have up
6902s	their sleeves something that can play to
6904s	their actual strengths here but I do
6906s	also kind of want to caution again you
6908s	know when you have snaz on that Bastion
6910s	when you have as much of a lethal
6912s	composition as uh as Washington Timeless
6914s	does on that High Ground especially if
6916s	they're going to go for the sigma
6917s	variation again it's not going to be any
6920s	easier to crack you have to try and
6921s	leverage your flyers and try and
6923s	leverage your Dives and hopefully the
6924s	doomfist to displace the sigma get him
6926s	off of that High Ground bait out the
6928s	accretions and go in and take space that
6930s	way but it's not like it's it's not easy
6932s	like I'm describing it as like as though
6934s	it's easy it's not easy it's just like
6936s	riding a bike easy peasy anyone can do
6938s	it but I think you bring up a great
6940s	point which is kind of like do you play
6941s	for just lodging them which is more of
6943s	what you try to do for dive or you try
6944s	to take over that high ground and which
6946s	is more of like the pope comple you
6948s	literally just like play a sigma you
6949s	like just run and say hey this is our
6950s	high ground now where like Winston
6952s	doomfist Diva even wrecking ball we've
6954s	seen in past some calling all Hero
6956s	miners trying to like play this first
6958s	play in them Bonnie you're just really
6959s	trying to get them to move and force
6961s	them into uncomfortable spots whether
6962s	it's The High Ground you force them to
6964s	rotate to the other High Ground all the
6965s	way across you know whatever the way it
6968s	is that's kind of like the two different
6969s	trains of thought you have here and
6971s	whatever composition you run is really
6972s	going to determine how you actually play
6973s	that out I I I think I think you have to
6976s	opt for the dive here because poke
6978s	versus poke it seems like Washington
6979s	Timeless are
6980s	more well-versed but you know I might be
6982s	eating my words here cuz it is attacker
6984s	spawn and I don't necessarily want to
6985s	take the bait but that looks like a
6986s	pretty coherent team composition to me
6988s	one very similar to the one Washington
6990s	Timeless is running but I want to go
6992s	ahead and highlight Halo right now
6994s	because we're seeing a little bit of
6995s	Yari here yeah ilari I mean that's also
6998s	very interesting because Halo more known
7000s	as a main support player and I feel like
7001s	ilari kind of goes more into that Flex
7003s	support role uh very heavily aim
7005s	intensive not saying that main supports
7007s	can't aim but you know just kind of just
7008s	not generally the hero they get to play
7010s	but this is a great time to flex that
7011s	aim I mean if you hit head shots if you
7013s	get those dinks allari is so useful and
7016s	I mean that healing pile on you put it
7017s	in a nice little safe Nook it's going to
7019s	get so much healing over time the one
7020s	thing I'm worried about is that there's
7022s	so much speed for Valiant Guardians with
7023s	that Lucio they can just run at you and
7025s	thenar I mean she can kind of Just Dance
7028s	away she does have that jumping ability
7029s	that also knocks you back but like this
7031s	is what they're doing they just run
7032s	right into them yeah the speed good Lord
7034s	Orion never saw it coming and sosler I
7036s	mean you never saw the second one coming
7038s	Val and Guardians who even needs the
7040s	Poke composition this is more of a
7042s	Haymaker just a punch straight to the
7044s	teeth they knock all of all of
7046s	Washington timeless' bers out and that
7048s	should be a pretty Swift point
7050s	cap every composition is brawl if you
7053s	wanted to as long as you have Lo speed
7055s	boost to help you get to where you need
7056s	to go you could just fly right into the
7058s	they had no idea was coming now Halo
7061s	they did get an elimination so
7062s	definitely they could have made thei
7063s	work but I think they see like hey like
7064s	we're going to run over so she's going
7066s	to make that swap right away she's going
7068s	to now go to you know I I think the
7070s	right choice here so now they can either
7072s	re they can engage aggressively
7073s	themselves or they can use it as a
7074s	disengage to run away these vant
7076s	Guardians they already have the
7077s	amplication Matrix so they're going to
7079s	need that speed boost to run away
7080s	potentially if it's used right around
7082s	this corner I'm wondering though how
7084s	Washington timus are going to play this
7085s	like where are they actually going to
7087s	set up because I mean street phas is not
7089s	nearly as optimal for a sigma poke as it
7091s	is as is point a you can see the walls
7094s	coming out from bun but it's not really
7095s	able to isolate moving fish the Street's
7097s	just a little bit too wide they're able
7099s	to just
7100s	the slide right out behind them
7101s	meanwhile sniper is in no man's land
7103s	right now getting just focused by
7105s	everyone able to again kind of slip out
7107s	there with the ant MRI coming out from
7108s	mean you don't want to stick around all
7110s	that much longer that's a lot of hurt
7112s	that's going to be coming through that
7113s	window there chado cleans up a kill onto
7115s	bun and there goes the ability to
7117s	segment off any members of valiant
7119s	Guardians as Washington Timeless are
7121s	still on the back foot and ant majes of
7123s	their own to try and save off some of
7124s	the pressure and taking down whis is a
7126s	great way to release that pressure valve
7128s	just a little bit chado going to fall as
7130s	well and Valiant Guardians might have
7132s	stalled out a little bit here as
7134s	Washington Timeless take control that's
7136s	an insane hole the fact that they get
7138s	that defense despite being completely
7141s	split after losing one it just seems
7143s	like they're able to get whis and then
7145s	gisado had to like Dash past the amp
7148s	Matrix because they were completely um
7150s	like in like just the middle of nowhere
7152s	like no one is able to heal them so they
7154s	get displaced then they actually make
7156s	Valiant Guardians displace themselves
7157s	but there are so many offensive Valiant
7159s	Guardians and they're going to be using
7160s	the artillery strike right off the bat
7162s	here he going to force an ant matri or
7163s	not an sound barrier o but the sound
7165s	barrier was not enough Orion still Falls
7169s	takes down CH what was that what even
7171s	was that anyway okay moving fish just
7174s	moving around going on a flank to try
7176s	and dislodge whatever's left of
7177s	Washington Timeless but that was just
7179s	such a great play from Valiant Guardians
7181s	there to open up with that combo and to
7183s	follow it up and they're just taking so
7185s	much space here moving fish just got out
7188s	the gravitic flux
7190s	and like all they needed was an
7191s	accretion to cancel it just so well
7194s	played they will there will be a
7195s	recontest but bun immediately gets
7197s	melted and that's going to be it's a
7198s	token we canest if anything yeah that's
7201s	actually a gift if anything that's
7202s	sosler and Bun going down this is free
7204s	this is free real estate for Val
7205s	Guardians they're getting everything
7207s	they've wanted in more ultimates Point
7209s	captures they're what else could you
7211s	want you got 5 minutes 440 to be exact
7214s	in the time bank this is looking so good
7216s	for them noar has to make the swap back
7218s	over to the Bastion I think there was a
7219s	swap onto a tracer to get a touch there
7222s	I'm not actually sure I you know was
7224s	kind of focusing on other things and
7225s	that being Valiant Guardians marching
7227s	forward chado going to go ahead and pop
7229s	the Dragon Blade to take more space bun
7231s	tries to split the rest of valiant
7232s	Guardians with the blizzard and does
7234s	seem to have at least forced chado back
7236s	so a great play there from bun despite
7238s	it not showing up in the kill feed that
7240s	is a great use of the blizzard there to
7241s	slow things down that gives Orion time
7244s	to pop the amp Matrix and once again
7245s	valy and Guardians they can't commit
7247s	there is just too much damage
7249s	threatening to come their way now that
7250s	the window is down now it's time to go
7252s	in but what tools do they have left they
7254s	have to build up to this gravitic flux
7255s	here from moving fish they're one
7257s	percent away they finally have it it's
7259s	going to come out but sosler has taken
7261s	down mean already so this if anything is
7264s	going to be a token fight as valant
7266s	Guardians their health bars looking very
7268s	anemic there the pick off on to bun
7270s	isn't going to amount to much as trumu
7272s	is just in the backline melting everyone
7274s	down and Valley and Guardians have once
7276s	again stalled out going say it again I
7279s	mean the blizzard I said before like you
7281s	get wet elimination it's worth it but if
7283s	you get a zoning ultimate like no joke
7285s	that's worthwhile there they're able to
7287s	zone out for long enough where they get
7288s	the ant Matrix they build enough time
7290s	overall V Guardians just have to
7291s	continue to kind of poke and prod they
7292s	don't find anything and they finally get
7294s	that Al They think that's going win in
7295s	the fight they end up losing members
7297s	before it ever gets off they do have a
7300s	sound barrier watching Timeless SS are
7302s	going to use that artillery strike let's
7303s	see if it finds any value it does force
7305s	out immortality field so that is
7308s	actually some great utility off the
7310s	board now for Valiant Guardians
7311s	especially with trumu now coming up onto
7313s	that gravitic flux the early sound
7314s	barrier from KO comes out but as long as
7316s	trumu holds the flux for just a little
7318s	bit that over health is going to be gone
7320s	by the time everyone hits the ground but
7321s	despite that there's not enough damage
7323s	whsp just a little bit too chy a little
7326s	bit too healthy there to finally fall
7328s	and Valiant Guardians are able to
7329s	weather the storm another immortality
7331s	field comes out from miman and is
7333s	quickly dispatch the amp Matrix from
7335s	Orion still for forcing a lot of
7337s	positioning and Valiant Guardians are
7338s	split right now and again they can't
7341s	really commit here and even if they can
7343s	there's another blizzard and another
7344s	sound barrier waiting for them yeah and
7346s	Matrix going to be used as s be get used
7348s	as a counter yes it does they also use
7350s	the bliard they use everything they have
7351s	and try to force this out it's going to
7352s	force rotations but they are able to get
7354s	the DPS again the accretion from trumu
7357s	onto jado there and just all of the
7359s	followup bun takes down whisps and it's
7361s	all just clean up for here and a little
7363s	bit of a stall out there on too that's I
7365s	mean they definitely could have
7365s	staggered him out a little bit later if
7367s	they wanted to but heavy investment for
7369s	Washington Timeless but for bleeding the
7371s	time off the time bank you absolutely
7373s	take that they had 5 minutes like
7375s	actually 5 minutes when they started
7377s	this push on third point is down now to
7379s	less than 2 minutes a minute 52 and
7381s	Counting if they don't have any
7382s	ultimates like you said but all that's
7384s	on the other side is going to be that
7385s	gratic flux at least for now so you keep
7388s	your immortality work Halo Halo gets
7390s	caught off the wall this is disastrous I
7393s	I'm not sure what she was doing up there
7394s	and I don't know if Valiant Guardians
7396s	are either but regardless she ain't
7397s	doing it up there anymore and Valiant
7398s	Guardians with the speed of their own
7400s	can continue to March back forward they
7402s	have to be on the look out for this
7403s	gravitic flux from trumu and actually
7405s	trumu going to go and take down chado
7407s	and moving fish has the gravitic flux
7409s	should be able to pop it here and might
7411s	even have to just to stabilize and
7413s	Valiant Guardians without just there
7415s	have to back up moving fish goes the
7417s	wrong way gets split off and has to pop
7418s	the gravitic flux to get back but Halo
7420s	finds me and trumu takes down Wiis and
7422s	that gravitic flux removing fish doesn't
7425s	find anything and now they're just
7427s	getting hard Focus melted down five on
7430s	one there and that is a horrible fight
7432s	there for Valiant Guardians and with
7434s	only a minute
7436s	left yeah it's not a lot of time Halo
7439s	does die first as we talked about but
7441s	you know it's spawners advantage and
7442s	like playing Lucio you're going to get
7444s	back quicker than anyone else generally
7446s	any trade that you get a one for one is
7448s	going to be in the defender favor at
7449s	this point just because of where the
7450s	spawn is and there they take advantage
7451s	of it again they force out these weird
7453s	long fights dant Guardians to get split
7456s	moving fish tries to use the G Flex
7458s	again after they've already lost members
7460s	but now it's going to be the quick ant
7461s	Matrix behind the wall yeah they're
7463s	trying to press the advantage or
7464s	Washington Timeless and they do just
7466s	that they take down Caro and with only
7467s	30 seconds left Val and Guardians cannot
7469s	afford to lose another body they have to
7471s	go on the aggressive here to force
7472s	Washington Timeless back the amp Matrix
7474s	and the wheels down from whisp just to
7476s	try and do so and they are able to get a
7478s	little bit of space back and buy some
7480s	time to get some ultimate with only a
7481s	sound barrier and an artillery strike
7484s	online what are they going to be able to
7485s	find for it they can't even use the
7487s	artillery strike SN is behind them don't
7489s	even see sosler on the flank the am the
7492s	the sound B comes out from Halo and Bun
7494s	going to go and follow it up with the
7496s	blizzard Orion takes down Caro and there
7498s	is nobody from Valiant Guardians that's
7500s	able to really find much purchase of
7502s	anything snar with the flank just takes
7504s	all of the space right out from under
7506s	Valiant Guardians pulls the rug out from
7508s	under them and there's just nothing left
7510s	that they can do the cart will stall out
7512s	there on point c not able to fully cap
7517s	I'm guessing snower just literally ran
7518s	like up and then jump down I don't think
7522s	like we can understand how important
7524s	that pick was that was one of the only
7525s	ultimates online for Valiant gain was
7527s	that artillery Stak so when whis is
7529s	taken out by their counterpart and
7530s	sosler like one of their biggest tools
7532s	is just gone it's done in dusted and Val
7535s	Guardians have no more time on the clock
7537s	they had five minutes and they just
7539s	consistently got stopped over and over
7541s	and over again Washington Timeless did a
7544s	great job of constantly using that
7545s	aggression to split them up they got
7548s	like run over which is ironic think
7550s	that's what Valiant Guardians did in the
7551s	first two points to get such a good time
7553s	bank but Washington Timeless they
7554s	adapted they were able to adjust their
7556s	own play style and they make it work
7559s	it's going to be still quite a bit of
7561s	map to go they got to go all the way
7562s	till basically the very end if they want
7564s	to win this one out but that was an
7567s	amazing hold at the last hour spawn
7569s	Advantage is a hell of a thing to
7571s	overcome especially when Washington
7572s	Timeless have such a solid game plan and
7575s	such a great ability to cycle ultimates
7577s	out and like you said finding the pcks
7578s	that they need to find at the moment
7580s	that they need to find them not letting
7581s	wisps build up to that artillery strike
7584s	which even still is kind of like you
7585s	know sometimes a throwaway ultimate just
7587s	used to bait out immortality field but
7589s	you don't if that's your only tool and
7591s	you don't even have that then you just
7593s	don't really have any way in there is no
7595s	key to unlock the door that Washton
7597s	Timeless put ahead of you but you know
7599s	as we go in we're seeing a little bit
7600s	more of that Sigma versus Sigma
7602s	interesting though wisps on the
7605s	soldier also KIRO going to be on the
7607s	Bita I like this actually the L flil can
7609s	do a lot it can really disjoint someone
7612s	it can stop any sort of push they're
7614s	going to have to leave yeah the wall is
7615s	going to come up immediately and oh car
7617s	going to get a taste of their own
7618s	medicine so how was that about whip
7620s	shotting the push there didn't really
7621s	come through KO just gets run over there
7623s	but a couple good picks though from
7625s	chado sosler is down Orion is down
7628s	that's a lot of ability for Washington
7630s	timers to control space and Bun both for
7632s	cool down Force down but hello from The
7634s	High Ground true Moon nobody saw them
7636s	coming and that accretion takes down
7638s	whis
7639s	I mean the remnant of valiant Guardians
7641s	are currently surrounded and they've got
7643s	moving fish forced back into this little
7645s	Alleyway and a nice little May wall to
7646s	keep them comfy there and this might
7648s	actually be Washington Timeless able to
7650s	recover they've already got a tick
7651s	they're going super super aggressive
7653s	here deep into the enemy spawn to take
7655s	down moving fish and they do just that
7657s	just unbridled
7659s	aggression I really like this the this
7661s	aggressive play that we saw at the end
7663s	of third Point continues and even though
7664s	they get that first pick like they
7665s	continue to push the the message the
7667s	entire they push for elimination they
7669s	don't just hold the point say all right
7671s	well now you can come to us for the
7672s	recontest and then we'll try to win that
7673s	fight no they're going to go one by one
7675s	stagger by stagger and find that first
7678s	point with T's giv a heart he giv a
7681s	little bit of a heart on the cart it's
7683s	uh giving me flashbacks to World Cup
7685s	with France but yeah they are they are
7687s	taking such aggressive positioning
7689s	Halo's the payload princess right now
7690s	while the rest of Washington Timeless
7691s	are pushed super far up to try and hold
7693s	space and Valiant Guardians have finally
7696s	come back out of hiding to try and
7697s	challenge them for it but a gravitic
7698s	flux going to come out from trumu we'll
7700s	see what if it's able to find it doesn't
7702s	look like a whole lot but it is going to
7704s	also Force out that duplicate from gado
7706s	but not able to build up with the
7707s	blizzard before being forced out and
7709s	whis takes down snaza bun forced to
7711s	invest the blizzard of her own and
7713s	Washington Timeless despite losing
7715s	sosler are still going turbo aggressive
7717s	Valiant Guardians aren't really able to
7720s	find a way to dig their heels into the
7722s	dirt oh there creado is lucky to be
7724s	alive right now this card continues to
7726s	roll as this fight is breaking out
7728s	everywhere on on the car off the car on
7730s	the side where you can fall off of the
7731s	map is going Every Which Way but this
7734s	gravitic flux from fish might put an end
7736s	to it oh it's a great sound barrier from
7738s	Halo but it doesn't catch Orion so the
7739s	Baptist now off the field and without
7741s	that healing your Sigma is not long for
7743s	this world and this might be valant
7745s	Guardians finally taking some agency in
7748s	their own destiny stopping the push from
7750s	Washington Timeless and getting
7751s	themselves a strong defensible position
7754s	statistically this is one of the most
7756s	difficult points to full hold like I
7757s	think professionally it's like generally
7759s	it never happens but if you get a full
7761s	like a hold TI on second point it would
7763s	be huge I mean the the more time you can
7764s	kill off the clock I think is the most
7766s	important thing here so V Guardians fact
7767s	they able to like actually get a stop to
7769s	this push after what was a great
7771s	aggressive attacking round from
7772s	Washington Timeless on the first point
7774s	is nice and now we're going to have a
7776s	pause to get a little bit more time to
7777s	discuss this but this is the time they
7779s	got to dig in their heels especially
7780s	getting that sound barrier out that is
7783s	priceless because now you have a huge
7785s	Advantage you have your own sound
7786s	barrier that KIRO has tucked away you
7788s	can use it aggressively you can save it
7790s	for potentially uh gratic flux on the
7792s	either side you can save it maybe from
7794s	another sort of more offensive s side at
7796s	ultimate Valiant Guardians are in a
7798s	great spot maybe not to like hold this
7800s	point completely but I think they at
7802s	least win one more fight and the more
7804s	time they can get off the clock
7805s	especially because they didn't get the
7806s	full cap themselves the better I mean
7809s	you you talk about getting that sound
7810s	barrier out and it was a great sound
7811s	barrier from Halo I love where she was
7814s	positioned to be able to get that out so
7815s	she wasn't caught in the gravitic flux
7817s	but was still able to help those that
7818s	were caught in it but while that was all
7820s	happening Orion just got segmented off
7822s	from the rest of the team and ended up
7824s	getting melted down didn't get the sound
7826s	barer and again without your Baptist
7828s	able to help sustain everybody else that
7830s	over health is going to melt away fast
7833s	and when it's gone it doesn't come back
7835s	and neither does the rest of your team
7837s	it's a great fight for Valiant Guardians
7839s	to finally you know finally get their
7841s	claws back into this game and find
7843s	themselves a defensible position at the
7845s	end of point B there where you know
7848s	sometimes it takes a C9 to be able to to
7851s	cap it other times other times it takes
7853s	just that pure unbridled aggression but
7855s	if you stop the momentum of Washington
7856s	Timeless you know you kind of have to
7859s	force them to like put on the brakes a
7860s	little bit reassess themselves and feel
7863s	out the room before they put their foot
7865s	back down on the gas again and if you
7866s	don't give them the chance to do that
7868s	you can realistically hold or at the
7869s	very least bleed a lot of time off the
7872s	clock and with how far the cart didn't
7874s	actually get you need to bleed off as
7876s	much time as you possibly can did it
7879s	even get around that bend I don't think
7880s	it got around the like Bend or the
7882s	second Bend um of that third point so
7885s	the like golden box of Victory if you're
7887s	able to get to the third Point as
7888s	Washington Timeless is not that far away
7891s	like the capture point is very
7892s	obtainable so Val Guardians like you
7895s	said they just need to continue to kill
7896s	that clock as much as possible the pause
7898s	is luckily coming to an end it looks
7901s	like everyone is
7903s	regrouping wh has to be careful they're
7905s	falling super low I me time to get your
7908s	hand in your hands back on the keyboard
7909s	and mouse there buddy you definitely
7911s	don't want to take too much damage going
7912s	in able to sustain just a little bit
7915s	there but bun finds a nice Isle to the
7917s	Dome there but it's traded out trumu
7919s	getting taken down there by moving fish
7921s	and bant Guardians I mean they have to
7922s	invest the sound barrier to stay alive
7924s	but I think picking off trumu there
7926s	that's all they really
7928s	needed yeah I mean it it gets rid of I
7930s	guess the advantage we just talked about
7932s	the sound barrier Advantage because now
7933s	you don't have a counter except for the
7935s	immortality field for that g when it
7936s	comes in but this could be
7939s	I mean this could be a huge stagger if
7940s	they do trade they're actually going to
7941s	commit the blizzard here this is this is
7944s	either the biggest brain thing I've ever
7946s	seen or this is going to cost Washington
7948s	Timeless so so with Matrix Orion finds
7952s	two what I I I don't even know how that
7954s	I actually happened there I mean snaz
7956s	went in with a flank there and had Halo
7958s	there to help them out a little bit and
7960s	you know it bought a lot of space in the
7961s	absence of trumu and then while
7963s	everyone's got their back turn trying to
7964s	deal with that sojourn Orion just pops
7966s	the M Matrix and melts down too
7969s	noler B so much time for the rest of the
7971s	team to get back also helped with a few
7974s	eliminations there they just could not
7975s	take that soj down now they swap to the
7977s	Bastion so they're going to even do more
7979s	damage and you can see that box of
7980s	Victory it's not golden is going to be
7982s	purple for Washington Timeless but this
7984s	is looking closer and closer like it's
7986s	going to be the end sooner than later
7988s	there's no sound beers we just talked
7989s	about this should be free for trumo just
7991s	to let it fly and there it goes oh and
7993s	the accretion is no good moving fish not
7995s	able to stop it but the ant Matrix
7997s	coming out from mean might be enough but
7999s	trumu does not care we walk right
8000s	through that window going to do a little
8002s	bit of window shopping and maybe is
8004s	going to find some bang for their Buck
8006s	there but mean not going to let it
8007s	happen actually going to take them down
8009s	and Valiant Guardians might just be able
8011s	to stabilize here and boy do they need
8013s	to yeah because again that wi con that
8017s	golden box that keep purle box and
8019s	victory it is so close like it is inches
8021s	away right now it is there's not any
8024s	room for error literally or figuratively
8026s	right now for the side of B Guardians
8029s	they do have a great bicux to their name
8030s	so they do have a slight ultimate
8032s	Advantage Wasing Timeless like they've
8034s	got the sound Bearer ready to go so they
8035s	could just fight through this they could
8036s	over Shield through it and they be able
8038s	to win the fight after thetic flux is
8041s	their only tool and they have to cycle
8042s	their ult perfectly but it goes wide
8044s	andler takes down jado that is
8046s	catastrophic for Valiant Guardians and
8048s	Wasing the Timeless they can smell blood
8050s	in the water it's just a March the drums
8053s	beating as they all March forward and
8055s	take the cart into the golden box of
8057s	Victory that's a two for Washington
8059s	Timeless and what was a incredible
8061s	series from Valiant guardians but it
8063s	just wasn't enough to pump the brakes
8066s	and stop Wasing him Timeless from
8068s	running them right over like Lambs to
8071s	the slaughter it was touch and go at
8073s	some moments but when the Washington
8075s	Timeless got a little Edge they ran with
8078s	it I still can't believe that won that
8080s	fight on second point I I would love to
8082s	see a replay of that if possible because
8085s	that was absolute Insanity that they
8087s	were able to win that one went out but I
8089s	mean we were expecting a close match
8091s	overall I would say it was pretty close
8094s	uh it is again a 20 score line but I
8096s	don't think that really reveals just how
8098s	back and forth the series was overall we
8101s	got to look like at they how they did
8102s	the best Valiant gargin 3-1 in that
8104s	upper ret final last time and then a 3-2
8107s	in that Grand Final between the two
8109s	teams that Washington Timeless did end
8110s	up taking and I think you know we can
8113s	point to those changes in support as
8114s	maybe one of those big factors Halo
8116s	moving over to Washington timeless
8117s	aramori again not able to be in the
8119s	starting lineup this weekend due to some
8121s	personal stuff hopefully we'll be able
8122s	to see next week in the playoff bracket
8125s	but just not able to bring that same
8127s	sort of fight that they did last time
8129s	around still good fight but not the same
8131s	one I I'm curious to see what the Halo
8134s	and armore backline is capable of but
8136s	what the scary thing is is they just
8137s	took down one of the top teams in this
8140s	entire tournament 20 with Orion one of
8143s	their substitutes coming in to play Flex
8145s	support which is a very highly impactful
8147s	role and it feels like the team didn't
8149s	even miss a beat having that substitute
8151s	in there they were still able to play
8153s	full octane pedal to the metal Non-Stop
8156s	and sure a couple times did get stalled
8158s	out by Valiant Guardians because they're
8160s	just that good but Washington Timeless
8162s	were just better just cleaner
8164s	specifically on this Sigma composition
8167s	the composition that won the Florida
8169s	Mayhem the grand Champions the grand
8171s	championship at Grand finals and if this
8173s	is the meta if this is where things are
8175s	going and Washington Timeless are this
8177s	far ahead of the Curve and Valiant
8179s	Guardians couldn't stop them who can and
8182s	I think one thing they did really well
8184s	and I want to give a big shout out to
8185s	bun may not the flashiest of DPS
8187s	characters I mean if you hit those head
8188s	shots across the map obviously that
8190s	looks great but the wall placement there
8191s	were just so much good displacement the
8193s	blizzards were pretty good too A lot of
8195s	the time not used for those big team
8196s	fight wins but trying to get someone
8197s	zoned out in particular and then winning
8199s	the fight off of that or just creating
8201s	space like that is what you need from
8203s	your may they need to be one of the
8204s	biggest brain players in the r and Bun
8206s	she played it to perfection she created
8208s	so much separation we're going to look
8210s	at the stats for the tanks and see some
8211s	of the sigma differences um but overall
8214s	I got to give like a shout out um
8216s	especially to bun and how she played I
8219s	mean yeah bun playing was B Bun's play
8222s	there was definitely one of the things
8224s	that helped put Washington Timeless over
8225s	the edge and you can even kind of see
8227s	that picture being Illustrated when you
8229s	look at just the Sigma versus Sigma
8231s	stats you see the spike in damage and
8233s	damage block for moving fish but the
8235s	team coordination just favored trumu so
8238s	much more that they were able to just
8240s	roll right over they didn't have to do
8241s	as much damage didn't have to block as
8243s	much damage just had to be as effective
8245s	as they were hit the big fluxes when
8247s	they needed to get the eliminations when
8249s	they needed to and trust that your team
8251s	will be there to follow up on the damage
8253s	and more often than not they definitely
8255s	were I mean they definitely were it I
8258s	what else can you really say about it
8260s	besides Washington Timeless looked to be
8262s	one of the favorites to go all the way
8263s	and with performances like that you got
8265s	to be scared no matter who you are
8267s	especially if if you're a valiant
8268s	Guardians cuz you have now traveled into
8270s	the belly of the Beast and did not like
8272s	what you saw again this is switch stage
8275s	so it's not like we're eliminating them
8276s	to lower bracket or anything they still
8277s	got plenty of games it will be a blemish
8279s	on that record so it's not going to be
8281s	that 5-0 report card they were hoping
8283s	for on the side of valiant Guardians
8284s	it's going to be a 4-1 at best but still
8287s	very reasonably decent record if they're
8290s	able to obtain that I'm expecting them
8291s	honestly to be able to get a 4-1 I I
8293s	think they're like definitely top three
8295s	in this tournament even with some
8296s	differences in their support lineup for
8298s	this iteration of calling all heroes but
8300s	I'm expecting great things from them
8301s	regardless but we're going to be talking
8303s	to a member of Washington Timeless just
8305s	momentarily so don't get anywh folks we
8307s	got a break before that interview but
8309s	it's going to be a good

8481s	after a banger of a match that we had in
8483s	Swiss round two a a potential
8485s	foreshadowing for what the playoffs
8487s	might look like Washington Timeless take
8489s	it 20 over Valiant Guardians and we have
8492s	sill from Washington Timeless here to
8494s	help celebrate with us sill how are you
8497s	doing and how does it feel to be back
8499s	for another calling all heroes
8501s	tournament everyone uh I'm doing great
8504s	and it feels nice to see my team win
8506s	feels nice to um you know have been
8508s	practicing and it looks like it's paying
8510s	off and I'm just like happy to have
8512s	started another
8513s	tournament we've been practicing a lot
8515s	and we think we'll do well this time
8517s	well it's definitely looking like that
8518s	practice is paying off a two win a sweep
8522s	over you know team i' consider
8524s	Washington timeless' Nemesis Valiant
8526s	Guardian how does it feel to take that
8527s	win in such a dominant fashion squirrel
8529s	line wise well honestly like it was
8532s	pretty much expected I'm not going to
8534s	lie I I think we were pretty prepared to
8536s	just come in and win the dominant I mean
8540s	last time kind of a fluke not going to
8542s	lie we're a lot better now we've had a
8543s	lot of practice and I think uh we're
8545s	going to keep showing that kind of
8547s	presence for the rest of the tournament
8549s	I got to say I love the heat that
8550s	calling Heroes is bringing there are no
8552s	words mins whatsoever I mean everyone is
8554s	just saying exactly how they feel and
8556s	that's great for the spirit of
8557s	competition uh I got to ask now that you
8560s	know your team has knocked off at least
8562s	for now one of the more I would say like
8564s	highly rated teams in the competition is
8566s	there any other team that you guys have
8567s	your sight set on any other team that
8569s	you're looking forward to playing and
8571s	hoping to beat as well um I I'd say the
8574s	only team other than Guardians that
8576s	we're kind of looking at is drainers uh
8578s	cuz we played them in a couple
8579s	tournaments before and we've had like
8580s	mixed results against them but I think
8582s	this time around we'll do really well
8584s	against them and pick the series I'm I'm
8587s	looking forward to seeing if you guys go
8589s	head-to-head with drainers hopefully we
8590s	get the we get a good playoffs match
8592s	between the two of you going down the
8593s	line there but you know speaking of the
8595s	practice that you guys have been putting
8596s	in I'm like what I'm seeing with these
8598s	Sigma compositions that we're seeing
8600s	very uh reminiscent of the grand finals
8602s	winning composition that Florida Mayhem
8604s	came out with is that you know the team
8605s	strategy is to just you know go with
8607s	what is the meta and be ahead of the
8608s	curve and how do you feel about uh the
8611s	way your team is playing this
8612s	composition well I'm going to be honest
8614s	our comp we're kind of just sandbagging
8616s	right now like these aren't our real
8617s	comps this is just Swiss and we're just
8619s	like mirroring everyone cuz we know
8620s	we're better but we have some real stuff
8622s	cing cooking up for the playoffs that's
8623s	when I come in I don't know if I I don't
8625s	know if I believe you like if cuz you
8626s	look so prac practiced on this
8628s	composition the coordination just feels
8629s	there like bun puts up a wall and
8632s	somebody just dies like you've practiced
8634s	this
8635s	surely uh we we've dabbled here and
8637s	there in it yeah a little bit okay well
8640s	maybe a little bit but maybe you are
8642s	just that good and if you are just that
8644s	good it's going to be scary for any
8645s	other team that goes against you going
8647s	forward but that is going to be it for
8649s	our interview sahill uh thank you for
8651s	having or thank you for being here uh do
8654s	you have any shout outs you want to give
8655s	before we send you off uh yeah shout out
8657s	to our coach SNR cooking up some crazy
8660s	stuff in scrims shout out to our two
8663s	managers debbit and Lily one of them
8665s	might be a better manager than the other
8666s	they know which one they are and yeah
8669s	that's about it thank you for having me
8672s	I love a little bit of managerial shade
8673s	thank you so much for coming in giving
8675s	us a little bit of insight and we look
8677s	forward to seeing saw Hill as we go
8679s	forward but we still have one more game
8681s	for you guys chat as much of a banger as
8683s	that one was I do wish we could have
8685s	gone to flasho on that one but just
8687s	wasn't in the cards today but there
8689s	might be uh there might be a three
8691s	mapper in the cards for our third Swiss
8692s	round you never know yeah I'm I'm
8695s	praying for it I I think I mean I I
8697s	might be not in the majority of this I
8699s	actually really like flasho as a game
8701s	mode I think it's like controlled to a
8702s	whole new level it adds some really
8704s	interesting versatility especially with
8706s	the maps that we have so far um in it
8708s	but we're going to take a look at the
8709s	standings first before we get to that
8712s	third round match we're not sure exactly
8713s	who's going to be on stream just yet but
8715s	we do know who's going to two thus far 1
8719s	and then unfortunately 02 uh Vancouver
8722s	Titans blue you and I had actually
8723s	talked about this off stream we were
8725s	kind of hoping this is a team that would
8726s	show up a little bit more they've been
8727s	around since the beginning of calling
8729s	all heroes one of the first I would see
8730s	OverWatch League partner teams in the
8732s	scene definitely the longest lasting one
8734s	after the unfortunate demise of New York
8736s	exceler Academy so to see them start off
8738s	this strong I really like to see because
8740s	I feel like generally they haven't
8741s	necessarily shown like the best overall
8743s	standing results I mean we want to talk
8745s	about Vancouver Titans blue really quick
8747s	I do want to you know I met some of
8748s	their players at uh at Grand finals and
8751s	I can confirm that a couple of them did
8753s	walk away with that Grand Final sickness
8755s	so I mean they're having their Michael
8756s	Jordan flu games over there and they're
8758s	they're flying pretty high able to keep
8761s	that Flawless map win record get
8763s	themselves the top spot for now that's
8764s	really impressive and I'm hoping to see
8766s	them uh stick around at the top I want
8767s	to see them make a deep playoffs run but
8769s	they got to get there first it's only
8771s	round two of Swiss we have the third one
8774s	coming up here just after this once we
8776s	get the rest of these Gam sorted out and
8778s	we get it all figured out and we're
8779s	going to throw to a quick little break
8781s	while we figure this out be on the
8782s	lookout for round three coming up after

9561s	welcome back everybody to calling all
9563s	Hero rise together minor 3 hosted by
9567s	Toronto Defiance and if you're just
9568s	joining us we have just completed round
9571s	two of our Swiss stage going into round
9573s	three here but in round two we had
9575s	Washington Timeless and Valiant
9577s	Guardians going blow for blow and
9578s	showing us just what this level of
9581s	competition means to these marginalized
9583s	gender players these underrepresented
9584s	players and talent what it all means and
9587s	just how much we all love and support
9589s	calling all heroes the action speaks for
9591s	itself but chat what if you don't just
9593s	want to watch and support calling out
9595s	Heroes what if you want to get involved
9597s	Jag how how could chat do that well
9600s	there are plenty of ways to get involved
9602s	of calling all heroes first of all you
9603s	can head to the website calling all
9605s	heroes. to learn more about exactly what
9608s	this is a gender inclusivity program and
9611s	exactly how it works you can also go to
9613s	the start. g/c calling all heroes pages
9616s	all current and upcoming competitions
9618s	like this one that you are watching
9620s	right now and last but certainly not
9622s	least if you want to get involved as a
9624s	player participate yourself join the
9626s	official calling all heroes Discord for
9628s	a chance to either form or join a team
9631s	there's still plenty of time to get
9632s	yourself in there as a player get
9633s	yourself maybe some of the cash prizes
9635s	with major three around the corner who
9636s	knows maybe get yourself some circuit
9638s	points make a name for yourself so when
9640s	calling all heroes comes around again
9642s	people are going to want you on their
9643s	team there's plenty of room to grow and
9645s	cultivate as a player and as a talent
9647s	any part any role there's so much room
9650s	for you to grow and learn and it's a
9651s	wonderful experience and I can safely
9653s	say that I wouldn't be where I am
9655s	without calling all heroes and I'm so
9656s	thankful that this program exists and
9658s	that we have a place for assult to learn
9660s	and grow and that you guys can get
9661s	involved cuz that is absolutely
9663s	incredible but speaking of incredible we
9666s	just witnessed an incredible matchup and
9668s	we've got one more for you comeing at
9670s	you it's going to be Fable versus Aegis
9673s	to close out the night here we got these
9675s	two teams and there's a lot of moving
9677s	Parts on both of these teams some very
9679s	well-known players on some newer rosters
9681s	we'll see how they end up shaking
9683s	shaking things out here yeah and this is
9686s	a big statement game I do believe they
9688s	are both two and 0 in the standings
9691s	currently so two of the top teams
9693s	currently through the first two rounds
9695s	of competition and only one of them
9697s	again can go undefeated something's got
9700s	to give one of these teams going to fall
9701s	out of that perfect score line that
9704s	perfect series line and I I got to talk
9707s	about Fable really quickly I feel like
9709s	just from experience like from what
9710s	we've seen from them already they are
9713s	probably the team to beat I mean they
9714s	did really well in the last minor finish
9716s	7 to eth making it all the way to that
9718s	playoff recet is an accomplishment in
9720s	itself um in Avery the their tank player
9724s	uh has been in the scene for a long time
9725s	I believe I have casted them through
9728s	like initiatives like this other areas
9730s	of path Pro as well as Collegiate so
9732s	they have been a nam State and
9734s	competitive OverWatch and they have
9735s	always been a standout performer and you
9738s	know what they also helped me edit my re
9740s	so shout out to Avery for that one not
9742s	just a great player but also you know a
9744s	great editor a true homie yeah a true
9746s	homie what what can I say thank you so
9748s	much for that but hey that's not what
9749s	we're here for today today we're here to
9751s	see how well you perform with your team
9754s	on the stage here and of course you know
9756s	Avery is no slouch Avery is definitely
9758s	very capable of holding their own and
9760s	along with this backline I'm interested
9762s	to see what the Fable backline has to
9764s	offer we got Gusty and we got Panther
9767s	coming in and I know Panther from
9769s	several other teams is a very capable
9771s	support player can pop off especially on
9773s	that kidy go so I want to see what Fable
9775s	comes out here with it's an interesting
9776s	team potential lots of potential for
9778s	some interesting looks here it anyone's
9781s	guess what they're going to come out
9782s	here with and anyone's guess what AIS is
9784s	going to come out with as well yeah
9786s	we're going to have to see that lineup
9787s	pulled up momentarily and see what they
9790s	can bring to the table I'm already
9792s	loving the doomfist just give me more
9794s	doomfist please like there's not even a
9796s	really specific reason I'm not even
9798s	saying like that doomis is the best tank
9799s	to play I just think it's the most fun
9801s	tank to watch and commentate on but
9803s	going like we know this is going to be
9805s	an Antarctic Peninsula first map and you
9807s	know obviously these are just favorite
9808s	Heroes these aren't necessarily Heroes
9810s	they're going to play but I feel like
9812s	Antarctic Peninsula is a very brawl
9814s	Centric map like I'm expecting like
9816s	orisa Ry juner Queen so we're have to
9819s	see if agus can kind of play to that
9821s	style if they're going to try to do
9822s	their own thing I'm glad you mentioned
9824s	junker Queen specifically cuz remember
9826s	at the top of the show when I touted
9827s	Kindred is potentially the best junker
9829s	Queen in all of calling all heroes I say
9831s	potentially because there is another and
9834s	if she decides to come up with it Mari
9836s	is a very very capable junker Queen
9838s	player that can take control of the
9840s	entire game into her own hands and with
9842s	a team like this to support her that is
9844s	definitely something to be on the
9845s	lookout for and like you said Antarctic
9847s	Peninsula it does indeed play into that
9850s	junker Queen style that Rush style
9851s	something that she's going to be really
9853s	really good at I don't expect we're
9854s	going to see the doomfist I would
9855s	probably expect to see the junker Queen
9857s	come out and if so I would watch out if
9859s	I'm
9860s	Fable yeah this can be I I feel like
9863s	this is a very interesting control map
9865s	versus the others I feel like there's a
9866s	lot of high ground on the other Maps I
9868s	don't really feel like that except for
9870s	one submap on Antarctica Peninsula but
9872s	generally it is like almost always an
9873s	allout brawl just on the center of the
9875s	map right on that objective right on
9877s	that point so doomfist can work
9880s	potentially but I feel like doist works
9881s	way better into something like our
9883s	Reinhardt because Reinhardt doesn't have
9884s	a lot of St ability he just kind of gets
9885s	knocked around he's an old German man
9887s	you know there isn't much you can do
9888s	juner queen young Australian woman she's
9891s	just running around carving people up
9893s	throwing knives at them so it's a very
9895s	different match up depending on what we
9896s	see Mario come out with old German men
9898s	known for being quite topheavy you push
9900s	them down they'll just topple right over
9901s	but Australian women yeah they uh they
9903s	stand tall they've got the knives like
9905s	you said they're very difficult to
9906s	dislodge especially if you're playing a
9908s	dive hero junker Queen is a Great
9910s	anti-dive Hero so if we do see that
9912s	doomfist come out yeah I expected junker
9914s	Queen to counter it uh but like you know
9917s	I think like you mentioned there's only
9918s	one map on antartic Peninsula that is is
9920s	even a little bit conducive to a dive
9922s	play style I believe that's sub levels
9924s	uh and even then I would probably expect
9926s	Winston to come out more than the
9927s	doomfist cuz you want to dive and pounce
9929s	on the targets less about like the
9931s	disruption and dislodging them but I
9934s	just don't think that's where the meta
9935s	is like we haven't really seen a whole
9936s	lot of teams coming out here with the
9937s	dive even on maps like numani they're
9939s	opting to play more of the sigma poke or
9941s	that Sigma Rush hybrid composition that
9943s	we've seen a lot so I I think I'm
9946s	thinking queen I'm thinking Queen here
9948s	I'm always thinking about junker Queen
9949s	but right now I'm thinking junker Queen
9952s	I mean who is it honestly just a fun
9954s	character to play and that is the only
9955s	thing I'm thinking about of course but I
9957s	I mean I think he bring up a great point
9959s	about like Winston and dive it just
9960s	doesn't really make sense we've seen it
9962s	very sparsely I think really the only
9963s	team we've seen it play at least on
9965s	stream is yippi Cary and was for you
9967s	know a brief moment of time didn't work
9969s	out got blown up for like 5 seconds and
9971s	then we never saw it again and I do want
9973s	to point out they actually did win their
9974s	second match so you know you and I were
9976s	saying that we think they could make
9977s	playoffs the one in one still in great
9979s	standing to make that happen but um yeah
9981s	I think like Labs Icebreaker are very
9984s	much just like two teams just running at
9985s	each other head-on so again like Jer
9988s	queen I am expecting we could see some
9990s	variation of it but like I I think Ryan
9993s	honestly is not that strong unless you
9995s	can really utilize like the symmetra
9996s	play that we've seen in OverWatch League
9998s	playoffs that really is what enables him
9999s	to get around because again old German
10001s	man very slow even with his charge
10003s	beyond that he can't really do much Yer
10005s	Queen she just shouts everyone's like
10007s	okay like we'll follow you like don't
10009s	please we're scared of you but yeah uh
10012s	and she just has so much Mobility that I
10013s	think it's just a better thing or a
10015s	better character to run here I I I tend
10017s	to agree if you have that level of
10019s	coordination though with the SIM play a
10021s	Reinhard composition can be quite lethal
10023s	but that comes down I think more to team
10025s	cohesion rather than just you know
10027s	playing to the hero's strengths just you
10028s	know everyone coming together as a
10030s	collective to be one big death ball that
10033s	just rolls over the enemy team and if
10034s	that's what either these teams come out
10036s	with then you know that's a it's going
10039s	to be a little bit of a difficult thing
10040s	to dislodge cuz you can't really account
10041s	for just playing against someone who's
10043s	that well coordinated that much of a
10044s	hive mind and with that in mind we've
10047s	predicted a lot about the compositions
10049s	what do you feel about the score line of
10051s	this match we've had two backtack two
10053s	despite them being close is this another
10055s	2 or are we going to finally get the
10057s	elusive flash point give me map three I
10060s	want to see map three give it to me let
10062s	let me cast aasa or new junk City please
10065s	that that is all I'm asking for also I
10067s	just want like a cool like a I want a
10069s	really great series to end the day off
10070s	on these two teams are two and0 so
10072s	there's a lot at sake here like we talk
10073s	about like one of these teams going to
10075s	go down to two and one that is a blemish
10076s	on your report card you do not want only
10079s	a handful of teams I think actually
10080s	maybe only one team at the end of the
10081s	day can actually finish with that
10082s	undefeated score line so getting you
10084s	that one like step closer to it is so
10087s	important we're not going to see Jer
10088s	Queen at all we talked about this for
10089s	like 10 minutes for nothing it's going
10091s	to be Sigma it's always going to be
10092s	Sigma but there is variation in the DPS
10094s	which I think is is really important we
10096s	see the May Bastion which is like I
10097s	guess the more meta like we saw Florida
10099s	Mayhem on the other side though is going
10101s	to be a Genji as well as a soldier yeah
10103s	I'm curious to see how this ends up
10105s	playing out for fable because you see
10106s	how much space Aegis has already taken
10108s	and they've got control of The High
10109s	Ground and that's just what the benefit
10111s	of the Lucio the damage that's coming
10112s	out from Death quite an appoo name
10114s	especially if you're Arya right now
10115s	who's feeling yeah feeling how aoo it is
10118s	feeling a little bit of death for
10119s	themselves and yeah now a just is going
10121s	to go ahead and drop down right on top
10123s	of Avery and they don't have a whole lot
10124s	of support to stand on especially once
10126s	that immortality field gets melt down
10128s	death dishing out all the more of it
10130s	wheels go down AIS are going to take the
10132s	first point raining Death from Above
10134s	indeed living up to their namesake
10136s	causing it everywhere and this makes
10138s	sense because we we're going to get some
10139s	mile out of that we're going to get some
10140s	mileage out of death but we were just
10142s	talking about like Su level like this
10143s	probably wouldn't make sense to run the
10145s	brawl so it does make sense for more of
10146s	a poke comp but they are both running
10147s	Lucio so there still is some speed some
10149s	quickness and rotation that's involved
10150s	with it but a is playing so aggressively
10152s	they're playing the spawn they get the
10153s	wall too they force out the lamp
10156s	yeah and again once that lamp is done
10158s	Avery's life is on the clock and Mari
10160s	going to go ahead and take it away and
10161s	Fable they can't even really get out of
10163s	their own spawn without AIS giving them
10165s	a hard time for it that's 30% and there
10168s	hasn't even really been much of a fight
10170s	just Avery getting melted down twice
10172s	Arya once again getting caught out and
10175s	it's so hard not to get caught out when
10176s	you can't even poke your head out of
10177s	your own front door and feel safe about
10179s	it this might be a spawn camp in calling
10181s	all heroes oh they're going to back off
10183s	okay so they're going to play natural
10184s	cover which is the smart thing to do but
10186s	him into their trap there you ra the ant
10188s	Matrix yeah and the Dragon Blade going
10190s	to come out from Zoe we'll see if it's
10192s	able to find much of anything it does
10193s	find Keith that's a great way to take
10195s	the wind out of ais's sails and now
10197s	Fable can finally March forward get
10199s	themselves some presence on the point at
10201s	58% they're able to clean up Aegis and
10203s	Fable have finally gotten themselves on
10205s	the board and that's so unfortunate Jay
10208s	they were so close to that s that could
10209s	have turned the fight but didn't get it
10211s	online until just now and I'm going to
10213s	say it if they wait for the spawn camp
10214s	and if they play in their spawn they
10216s	wouldn't have lost that point so quickly
10217s	that fight would have gone on longer
10218s	they would have had to go a longer
10220s	distance just more reason for the spawn
10222s	Camp to come out eventually but egus now
10224s	they're going to have to try to flip
10225s	this point once again they did get out
10227s	some or at least only it's actually only
10228s	the blade that feels like not that much
10230s	for all the value fa got now they're
10232s	going to use um Artic flux yeah that's
10235s	going to force out not only the ice
10236s	block but also the sound barrier and now
10238s	that that over health is all gone Fable
10239s	can clap back with one of their own
10241s	Gusty hits everybody with theirs but the
10244s	the blizzard coming out from and AIS
10246s	they're able to just leverage his ult
10247s	advantage to get themselves some
10248s	positioning and Fable they're scattered
10250s	they're all over the place Arya popping
10252s	the overclock but is that is there even
10254s	going to be a potential Target there's
10256s	only one it's Jay that falls but Aegis
10259s	they are able to withstand and once they
10261s	dislodge Zoe here it should be the flip
10263s	coming through but taking down death
10265s	might actually mean there could be a
10267s	recontest coming out kind of early in
10268s	this next fight yeah that could be huge
10271s	I mean Jason have to make a decision do
10273s	they go back and try to get death or do
10275s	they just try to flight this out in the
10277s	numbers that they have and hope that
10278s	they can sell out the good news for Aus
10280s	is that they got a lot of ultimates out
10282s	from Fable despite using a lot of them
10283s	themselves the bad news is that Zoe has
10286s	that Dragon Blade almost online and that
10287s	was the big fight Turner last time
10289s	around they've got to find some sort of
10290s	counter now that their sound barrier is
10292s	gone immortality Field's not going to
10294s	like Su throughout all of it they do
10295s	have an AM they got to use it now they
10297s	actually have to use the immortality
10298s	field early that's an interestingly
10300s	placed a matrix there it seems to be
10302s	mostly for heals right now and to try
10303s	and put out a little bit of damage from
10305s	death but Fable can just losos that
10307s	they're totally fine they do lose Arya
10308s	though as Jay goes in a little bit
10310s	aggressive there and Zoe going to fall
10311s	as well they're not able to pop that
10313s	Dragon Blade and that is catastrophic
10315s	Aegis just going to go ahead and March
10316s	forward knowing all threats have been
10318s	cleared they just have to get rid of the
10320s	bodies and they're going to be able to
10323s	take sublevels here if Fable has
10325s	anything left to say about it Avery with
10327s	a gravitic flux finds Keith that could
10329s	be absolutely massive and takes down J
10331s	as well Fable they're able to flip this
10333s	courtesy of that gravitic flux down is
10335s	still there though still melting
10337s	everyone else down Arya going to deal
10338s	with that Zoe is back and Fa will find
10341s	the flip and they still have the blade
10343s	that was almost disastrous I thought for
10345s	sure Zoe went for the like smart play
10348s	tried to take Z Panther offline but
10350s	ended up costing their life but now it
10352s	all works out they have the blade for
10354s	this fight Jade does have the sound beer
10356s	almost online they could actually try to
10358s	use even like a blizzard to try to just
10359s	lock him down freeze them up as a
10361s	counter so he's got to be careful they
10362s	don't get melted down yeah a little
10365s	dicey a little dicey but they get out
10367s	this is going to come down to who can
10368s	just execute their ultimat better and
10370s	Aus they have more at least for the time
10372s	being Zoe going to go ahead and pop the
10374s	Dragon Blade that's going to force out
10375s	the sound barrier from Jay and Zoe they
10377s	know they don't even really have to go
10378s	all that aggressive to try and get a lot
10380s	of value just getting that ult is all
10381s	they really need because now Mari going
10383s	to go ahead and come in with the
10385s	gravitic flock death with the artillery
10386s	strike and this is all Aegis in the kill
10388s	feed Fable they had a great run there
10391s	for a second but it's time to pack it up
10392s	and go home suevel belongs to
10395s	Aegis I was watching gusty's ultimate
10400s	and you want to know what happened was
10403s	it a was it an Ajax it was an Ajax they
10406s	were in the middle of their sound
10407s	barrier lifted up into the gtic flux and
10410s	they never got it off that is so painful
10413s	that could have completely changed the
10416s	course of this fight I mean the fact
10417s	that Fable battled back at all like
10419s	again ien some crazy close control Maps
10422s	every series it seems like it's going
10424s	the full distance going all three
10425s	submaps everyone is like going to 9999
10427s	for the most part with some 100 Zer
10429s	sprinkled in but that is so unfortunate
10432s	Gusty could have completely changed how
10434s	that fight went instead Aus able to rely
10438s	on that early lead they built up take
10440s	that first sub map and if Aus is able to
10441s	get a two Z here you're going to be
10444s	looking back at that moment and Fable
10446s	they could have capitalized but that
10447s	ultimate not going off it's just so
10450s	punishing it's such a high value
10452s	ultimate that it is just such a shame to
10453s	lose it that you know it it's a
10456s	potentially just a fight Ender if you're
10457s	not able to get the sound barrier off
10459s	successfully I mean got to be looking at
10461s	Gusty to try and clean that one up and
10463s	not get caught out like that again but
10464s	that was a great tic flux from Mari to
10466s	cause that and AIS they're going to keep
10468s	the momentum High they're going to keep
10470s	going taking this High ground and you
10472s	know it does feel like two brawl teams
10474s	just slamming into each other over and
10476s	over again but if you have control of
10477s	this High Ground it makes it all the
10479s	easier to be the one doing the slamming
10481s	versus being the one that just has to
10482s	kind of sit there and figure out what to
10484s	do with all of it is AIS they've already
10486s	taken down Z Panther that's death taken
10488s	down Avery as well that fastion is just
10491s	so lethal it's so hard to be a tank
10492s	player when there's a Bastion on the
10493s	field it's so hard to be in anything
10496s	when you don't have a tank on the field
10497s	and that's the value that Bastion brings
10499s	to the table yeah I'm starting to think
10501s	that I mean you do get the trade but and
10503s	you actually do get the first point cap
10505s	but other than that you're not going to
10506s	get much of anything in that fight I'm
10507s	starting to think Fable might want to
10508s	try to swap up their DPS lineup at least
10511s	maybe the soj I'd love to see maybe a
10513s	Bastion or a me just something else the
10516s	sjun on its own I mean Ario is playing
10518s	it well like no quals there I just don't
10520s	know if it's enough damage to really go
10521s	Toe to Toe with the Bastion from Death
10523s	on the other side death is just putting
10524s	in so much damage consistently and AR is
10526s	kind of relying more on building up that
10528s	rail gun and trying to go for that full
10529s	charge shot to actually get that same
10530s	sort of effect not being able to find
10532s	that same success at least through this
10533s	first fight and now AES not only do they
10537s	have the capture now they also have ant
10539s	Matrix they probably looking to use
10541s	right now it's the pick potential of the
10543s	soldier that you're going for but that
10544s	only only really matters if someone
10545s	pokes their head out and Keith does just
10547s	that to illustrate my point that's a
10549s	great pick off there from Arya and with
10550s	all the healing gone Fable they found
10552s	themselves away in Avery going to take
10554s	down death facing down death itself and
10556s	taking them down and AIS they're evicted
10559s	from the point there great play from
10561s	Arya to open it up and Fable have gotten
10563s	themselves on the board here pretty sure
10565s	Arya heard me say those things and
10567s	immediately was like no no no no this is
10569s	why the sojurn works and when you have
10570s	that rail gun charge up and you hit
10572s	shots like that especially onto an
10573s	important Target like he you just win
10575s	the fight outright the sound be being
10576s	committed also is a huge win they try to
10578s	use that to sustain throughout the fight
10579s	but they still don't have the healing on
10581s	top of it and now that's going to be a
10583s	free blade I mean fa should have a free
10585s	Fight Win here unless things go horribly
10587s	wrong you got to look at Gusty and the
10589s	sound barrier coming out there Zoe going
10590s	to go ahead and pop the Dragon Blade
10591s	immortality field to try and keep death
10593s	alive but the immortality field is all
10595s	death is able to find with the artillery
10597s	strike of their own and Zoe takes down
10599s	Keithan with just that Dragon Blade and
10600s	the sound barrier to boot Fable are
10602s	putting in the pressure but they keep
10604s	investing at actually they're going to
10605s	pop the overclock and they're getting
10606s	some value for it but I got to wonder if
10608s	that's an overc commitment that was
10610s	everything they had I didn't even see
10612s	the sound beer but it came out I think
10614s	that was in retaliation to the artillery
10615s	strike which isn't necessarily the worst
10617s	idea in the world but using the
10619s	overclock after you won that fight it's
10622s	important to get Sager because it's
10623s	important to force Aegis into
10624s	uncomfortable position where they this
10626s	is their last fight but now there's
10628s	nothing left like that sound bear could
10629s	have been huge into what's going up be
10631s	an upcoming Blizzard from Fifi they have
10633s	nothing except the brutality field death
10635s	makes a swap you no longer have to worry
10637s	about the Bastion you also don't have to
10638s	worry about Zoe though because death
10640s	just goes right in with a rail shot
10641s	takes down the sideboard ninja there and
10643s	it's going to be Avery getting melted
10644s	down but the the immortality field is
10647s	good being able to weather the storm
10649s	through the May wall but it's just not
10651s	enough it doesn't last forever there's
10653s	too much pressure and AIS put on the
10655s	pressure and flip the point back in
10656s	their favor but 92% for fable and they
10659s	do have a way in we're playing a game of
10662s	anything you can do I can do better
10663s	death makes a swap immediately gets the
10665s	first pick they save the the blizzard
10667s	they also now have an a matrix of their
10669s	own like I said AIS is completely back
10671s	in this they are completely changed
10673s	their fate they are in the S things the
10674s	AL Advantage they're going to have sound
10676s	barrier to there's no blade in sight and
10679s	there's only two fights left I mean if
10681s	this goes long for fable if they get Ted
10682s	out too much this might be last fight
10683s	right here I'm looking at Avery with
10685s	this gravitic flux they pulled out a
10687s	miracle out of a hat before but can they
10688s	do it once more amp Matrix for amp
10691s	Matrix both teams not wanting to show
10693s	Too Much face take too much d early on
10695s	just going to kite those ultimates out
10696s	until they expire and now it's gravitic
10698s	flux for gravitic flux sound barrier for
10700s	sound barrier fi though is holding on to
10702s	the Blizzard and they're going to go
10703s	ahead and let it rip the sound barrier
10705s	from Gusty to try and keep everyone
10706s	alive but that should mean a free gratic
10708s	flux and Avery isn't able to use their's
10711s	Mari going to pop the gravitic flux
10713s	sound barrier comes out from Jay and
10714s	there is nothing that Fable can do to
10716s	withstand all of the health bars all of
10718s	the damage all of the ultimates that AIS
10720s	came out here with and despite a close
10722s	performance here on Labs AIS will take
10724s	Antarctic Peninsula two to zero that's
10728s	our first two Z of the day here on
10730s	control uh I'm not feeling so great
10732s	about what my personal Hope was that we
10735s	go to a third map with performance like
10738s	that again it was close it was neck and
10740s	neck but ages it just seemed like they
10742s	had that clutch Factor every time they
10744s	needed something to go their way it did
10746s	the swaps the positioning the alt Bank
10749s	just being a bit better it all worked
10751s	out for them and I I'm just going to go
10753s	back to kind of that first fight death
10756s	on that Bastion I feel like has been a
10757s	big difference maker but even when they
10759s	swap the sojourn immediate impact that
10762s	first pick was like a statement
10763s	elimination saying hey I've swapped I'm
10766s	mirroring you now and I'm still going to
10768s	be the one who's doing better and what a
10771s	statement it was being able to just run
10773s	the rest of that uh submap all the way
10775s	to 100 and take it two zero in order to
10777s	really get value out of the soldier like
10779s	I said you do have to either catch
10780s	someone out of position and get that
10782s	rail shot onto them or you have to try
10783s	and take off off angles and if you're
10785s	doing that you're not putting out the
10787s	same amount of pressure onto the enemy
10788s	tank as the Bastion is the enemy tank
10791s	can't play as safely as they want to
10792s	they have to try and be safe and with
10793s	that being the case the rest of your
10795s	team just doesn't really have space so
10797s	you have to come up huge with some of
10799s	those rail shots and both sojourns were
10801s	able to do just that but it ended up
10803s	being death that got the better of that
10806s	Exchange in that fight which is I
10808s	honestly excuse me honestly I think what
10811s	actually dictated the whole thing
10812s	because if you look at the sigas back
10814s	and forth both Sigma players Avery and
10816s	Mari are playing near flawlessly with
10818s	each other but it's just who is forcing
10821s	errors from the rest of the teams around
10823s	them and it's Fable that are making a
10825s	little bit more of those mistakes forced
10826s	or unforced and AIS that are
10828s	capitalizing on them death comes from us
10831s	all one way or another right now it is
10833s	going for fable backline but I also want
10835s	to go back to a play we had talked about
10837s	a bunch when it happened the very
10839s	unfortunate Ajax that happened back on
10841s	map one and I was saying you know if you
10842s	lose map 2 you're going to be kicking
10844s	self for this because that was your
10846s	opportunity to win if they hit that
10847s	sound Bearer and it's not like I'm not
10849s	going to like call anyone like obviously
10851s	it's un very unfortunate if you're the
10852s	Lucio player Gusty but there's so many
10854s	factors go into it you're in the
10855s	graphitic flux you're being focused fire
10857s	down everyone hears you cast the
10859s	ultimate and that sound that that voice
10861s	line goes out before you actually land
10862s	on the gun or actually use the ultimate
10864s	and it has one of the longest cast times
10866s	in the game too but that could have been
10868s	a complete change we could have seen you
10870s	know submap 3 that could have been it
10872s	going fa's way but it did not and just
10874s	as you were saying like near Flawless
10876s	from both of these sigmas putting out
10878s	pretty similar numbers except when you
10880s	look at eliminations I think that's the
10882s	big thing we noticed this in the last
10883s	series too it's not about damage
10885s	necessarily or even damage blocked it's
10888s	about helping your team get those
10889s	eliminations my eyes personally
10892s	gravitate down more to the damage blocks
10894s	and the deaths on the side of Avery
10895s	because if you look at like like the
10897s	damage is is pretty similar throughout
10899s	and I feel like if you're on the winning
10900s	team that eliminations is going to be
10902s	just a little bit higher but that shows
10904s	how much pressure Avery was under
10906s	especially from the Bastion they can't
10908s	exist comfortably they have to block so
10910s	much damage and eventually they're going
10912s	to crumble because Mari is just not
10914s	under the same pressure she can just go
10916s	ahead and dish out all of the all of the
10918s	hurt that she wants continue to take all
10920s	of the space continue to push Avery and
10922s	the rest of the gang back and there's
10923s	not a whole lot that they can do about
10925s	it I am a big believer that Bastion is
10927s	kind of the major driving force in The
10930s	Meta I am begging and pleading for a
10933s	Bastion to make the rest of the Tank
10935s	cast playable let I mean I'm glad they
10937s	killed dive meta cuz Winston was
10939s	lingering around for just a little bit
10940s	too long in the meta but like did they
10942s	have to like not only kill it but just
10945s	like Nuke nuke it entirely at a
10947s	subatomic level by having Bastion become
10950s	this now driving force between every
10952s	team composition like come
10955s	on well unfortunately that is going to
10958s	be the current met of the current patch
10959s	notes still in favor of Bastion for the
10961s	time being I think it's interesting
10963s	though because you can notice notice
10964s	like the deps was way lower on the side
10967s	of Mari and I think a big part of that
10968s	is because of that Bastion like you said
10969s	like it's not fun to play tank into
10970s	Bastion but you don't have that answer
10972s	on the other side it doesn't work and
10974s	sojourn is great at picking off
10975s	squishier characters supports uh other
10978s	DPS because of that rail gun like fully
10980s	charged in the headshot capability but
10982s	it feels like when you shoot into a tank
10984s	as sojourn you're kind of just like
10986s	firing like a Nerf gun at them it's just
10988s	like kind of bouncing off and if they
10989s	can get healed up it doesn't really
10990s	matter the rail gun shots I I think with
10992s	an overclock if you like consist L just
10994s	hit like head shot after head shot after
10996s	head shot then you could find value of
10997s	the so into a tank but in general not so
11001s	much we are going to be moving on to map
11003s	2 and for the third time today it's
11005s	going to be numani I'm I'm really
11007s	wondering what it is about numani these
11009s	like teams like so much but we've seen
11011s	it every time I I so what I think it is
11013s	and this is just my kind of tinfoil hat
11015s	theory about it I don't know it might be
11017s	it might be a complete misread of the
11019s	meta right now but because a lot of
11020s	these teams are playing like that Sigma
11021s	poke composition they want to play the
11024s	hybrid map that lets them have the most
11025s	control over High Ground on the
11027s	defensive there where they know that
11029s	they can just melt down a dive
11030s	composition I think a lot of these teams
11031s	are playing for that defensive hold and
11034s	if they're not able to get it then
11035s	they're just playing what they've been
11036s	practicing what's been their biggest
11038s	strength what are they able to get out
11039s	of it that said you know having it be
11042s	the one that has this High ground and
11044s	where it does kind of seem to favor dive
11045s	on the attack that's always something
11047s	that we could see and we do know again
11049s	yeah Mari likes to pop out with that
11051s	doomfist every now and then she's great
11052s	at it but she's also really really good
11054s	at the sigma and that might be what they
11056s	decide to go for on the defense it's
11058s	really anybody's ball game here but I
11060s	think just because Sigma is like the The
11062s	Meta when it comes to hybrid right now
11064s	this is where everybody is currently
11066s	practicing and also ba like just Bastion
11069s	it's a great map for Bastion and chat I
11072s	want you all to do something like when
11073s	the show when the show's over here if
11074s	you don't believe me load oh we got time
11077s	okay cool I can go off on this tangent
11078s	we're going for a pause real quick if
11080s	you don't believe me go into even just
11082s	the quick play game after for the show
11084s	today boot it up pick W pick tank in
11087s	roll Q pick Winston and see what happens
11090s	after you have one good fight what's
11093s	going to happen is one of the enemy DPS
11095s	is going to play Bastion and suddenly
11097s	the tank rock paper scissors doesn't
11099s	mean diddly squat anymore because you
11100s	now need your DPS to either match or
11103s	shut down the Bastion or you just simply
11105s	don't get to play the game you get to
11107s	find a corner to peek get real
11109s	acquainted with the paint on that wall
11111s	peek out maybe take a little space and
11113s	then get forced back with your tail tuck
11115s	between your legs get the Primal Leap
11117s	back to spawn basically is what you're
11118s	saying and you go in and you're out
11121s	immediately back into the gray screen
11123s	it's like the H po you put your you put
11125s	your left foot in Bastion takes it off
11127s	so you take your left foot
11130s	out you swap the Jer Queen and you use
11132s	commanding shout that's what it's all
11134s	about let's go that was a really good
11137s	rhyme you know whoos to you that was
11138s	very well thought out we got we got to
11140s	make a parody of that someone got to
11141s	make a parody of that one day but
11144s	hear the cringe coming out from all of
11145s	chat for that one good the cringier the
11149s	better but what we're going to see is
11150s	that Fable is actually going to be
11152s	running the Bastion themselves something
11153s	that we did not see at all on Antarctic
11155s	Peninsula and Aus does not have AIS does
11158s	not have it at all they are actually
11159s	going back to the so going to Genji so
11161s	they running the same line for DBS
11163s	lineup That Fable ran and lost on yeah a
11166s	little bit of a Miss Elliot flip it in
11167s	reverse it but Fable just walking right
11169s	over them Mari dead Jay dead death able
11172s	to clean up Gusty but I don't think
11173s	think that's going to be all that much
11176s	when you have already lost so many
11177s	resources and a just yeah they uh
11180s	they're about done this fa will just go
11182s	ahead and walk forward and take point a
11184s	and this is again where we were talking
11186s	about where if you can't hold The High
11188s	Ground effectively with this composition
11190s	it just kind of crumbles and now the
11192s	momentum is in Fable favor absolutely
11195s	they get the swap they're they get the
11197s	uh the point they are now going to force
11198s	AIS to swap so they've gone back to the
11200s	May Bastion and I think the most
11202s	interesting wrinkle of this is the Yari
11204s	so a lot of damage a lot of potential
11205s	healing as long as that pylon is up up
11208s	online and there it's taken off so not
11209s	as much healing capability it doesn't
11211s	allow them to speed in though which is
11213s	something that we've seen a lot of these
11214s	Sigma comps do despite it being more of
11216s	a poke based style they have no really
11218s	way to engage they have no way to
11219s	disengage and they can get run through
11221s	just like they are right now yeah once
11223s	you scout out that composition and you
11224s	realize that thear is not great at or at
11227s	close range you go in and you close the
11228s	distance but it might have been too a
11230s	little too late because Fable already
11231s	had the captive Sun Z Panther puts out
11234s	so much damage and so much healing that
11236s	they already have that ability and sure
11238s	Aegis might have tried to run and close
11240s	the distance but they just ran into a
11241s	brick wall captive sun is one of the
11244s	least expensive ultimates in the game
11246s	because you do so much with you get alt
11248s	percentage firmer healing pylon as well
11250s	as the damage that she's outputting so
11252s	it's the best of both worlds it's a very
11253s	powerful ultimate if you can land it
11255s	there it does it helps get two off the
11257s	board now Aegis they are scrambling they
11259s	are trying to find a way back in they're
11261s	going to use an an Matrix to try to make
11262s	it happen it's a great place an Matrix
11264s	but the wall kind of works a little bit
11266s	against them there from fi they can't
11268s	really you know commit too much and
11269s	Fable are able to duck and Dodge it but
11271s	the remaining members of a just drop off
11273s	The High Ground weed out those that were
11275s	ducking in the trenches from Fable and
11277s	Fable they don't expend any ultimates
11278s	but they are still forced to back out
11280s	and AIS have found themselves that
11282s	defensible position on the at the end of
11284s	point B it's going to come down to J I
11286s	think I mean they are still 25% away
11289s	right now from that sound barrier so
11291s	there is still a lot of room to go
11294s	before they actually get up to it and
11296s	there's so many ultimates from Fable
11297s	everything except from that Captain son
11299s	but they lose Arya yeah and there's that
11302s	all that aggression coming out from
11303s	Aegis they invest the gravitic flux and
11305s	they Splat Avery back down to earth and
11307s	B they're not able to do a whole lot
11309s	when they don't have the space this is
11311s	again that arari versus the Lucio that
11313s	we're seeing where Aegis have the
11315s	ability to go aggressive and take space
11317s	where Fable they have to rely on Panther
11319s	hitting those shots yeah and it's easier
11321s	said than done I mean there's a lot of
11323s	amazingly talented Flex supports in
11325s	calling all heroes butan one of even
11328s	with that being the case it's just
11330s	there's who do you even take out on the
11331s	side of Aegis I mean it's really Baptist
11333s	or bust because Jay can run around the
11336s	sigma is tanky May is tanky Bastion is
11338s	literally a tank so the I mean you can
11341s	create some space now and like this is
11342s	huge because now you can do a lot of
11344s	like damage and they're really worried
11345s	about you firing through the an magic
11346s	but other than that like if they run
11347s	into you you're going to be much less
11349s	useful that's a little bit of BM for
11351s	Arya to go for death there with that uh
11352s	that artillery I guess both bastions
11354s	popped it but Fifi going to go ahead and
11356s	pop the blizzard and the captive Sun
11357s	comes out from Z Panther but it's not
11359s	enough to get much of anything as AIS
11361s	they're looking pretty strong here I
11363s	take it back actually the captive sun
11364s	takes down Keith and Fable they're still
11366s	in this and they're still pushing the
11367s	cart AIS they might have just fumbled it
11371s	they get the blizzard and Z Panther's
11373s	actually caught in it but despite that
11376s	they still get the elimination now
11377s	they've swapped onto the Lucio and
11379s	that's a four minute time they is so
11381s	much time to work with on the Bonnie
11384s	and it as you can see them like they're
11385s	they're struggling they're trying to
11386s	find something that works they've
11387s	swapped death to the ash now after the
11389s	bashing just wasn't enough and aable
11392s	still has such a healthy Al bank they
11393s	are so close to that duplicate not too
11395s	far away from the gravic flux they are
11397s	making some great great time we've seen
11398s	so many teams get Sall out here on this
11400s	final Point especially around this B can
11402s	they be the Difference Maker or will it
11404s	be the same story we've seen thus far
11406s	death made a swap over onto the ash but
11408s	I don't know if there's really a good
11409s	angle to play here I think you're
11410s	essentially just playing for the
11412s	dynamites there but speak of dynamites
11414s	there's going to be a dynamite play
11415s	coming out from Aegis they're going to
11416s	go and pop that sound barrier trying to
11419s	go aggressive and trying to take some
11421s	some space but Avery does not want to
11423s	let them do it another gravitic flux and
11424s	Z Panther going to just snipe Jay out of
11427s	the sky like SK shooting and with the
11428s	duplicate from Zoe fa can just keep the
11431s	pressure on Mari pops the gra clock and
11433s	takes down Avery so AIS are still
11436s	lingering around but I think they've
11438s	taken too many casualties Fable are just
11440s	going to keep marching forward they do
11442s	lose ARA though so they should get at
11444s	least a little bit more progress they
11445s	won't get stuck on this first Bend but I
11448s	think that's about all you can get now
11449s	it's time to completely back off will
11452s	they get found out it looks like they
11454s	will just barely get out it's a nice
11455s	Shield placement by Avery to help make
11457s	sure the rest of the team is able to
11458s	survive through that and they still have
11460s	captive Sun they still have uh the ant
11463s	Matrix and yeah you you're right death
11465s	use bum I didn't even see it on the
11466s	field and they got really no value from
11469s	it I mean it it buys them just a little
11471s	bit of time to get this corner position
11472s	back which is you want this is where you
11474s	want to hold if you're AIS but as far as
11476s	SS the coffers are running quite dry for
11479s	AIS and Fable they have everything they
11481s	could ever want they can just go ahead
11482s	and throw away this artillery strike
11484s	realistically use it to force out some
11485s	ultimates and force some positioning and
11487s	they're going to get all the positioning
11489s	the captive sun goes in Zoe goes in with
11491s	the cleanup Keith is down Jay is going
11493s	to follow and Fable they press the
11496s	advantage they invest where they need to
11497s	and they are Marching In towards the
11499s	checkpoint is there even going to be
11500s	anybody left alive to touch the body
11502s	block onto Mari they don't want to let
11504s	her get the touch she does get a little
11506s	bit of those toes on the point and takes
11508s	down Z Panther but is going to fall for
11510s	it and now it's just stagger City the
11512s	Lucio and the Tracer to try and stall
11515s	Avery with the gravitic flux to remove
11516s	them from the payload and that's going
11518s	to be Fable capping numani and that is a
11522s	statement map minute 43 on the clock
11527s	plenty of chances to hold on defense and
11529s	at least are guaranteed to force extra
11532s	rounds and they did that especially
11534s	after getting two zeroed on control
11535s	especially the way it went down when
11537s	they were so close to that first point
11539s	but again the least ultim didn't out and
11541s	even on the second point a very back and
11543s	forth engagement that just ended up
11545s	going the way of Aegis when it was all
11546s	setting done fa they bounced back they
11549s	answer back and now the ball is all in
11550s	aegis's court and they showed us a
11553s	different look like they they made the
11554s	Bastion from Arya work which really
11556s	makes me question why it didn't come out
11558s	on antartic PO maybe they just thought
11560s	because of the geography of the map
11561s	didn't make sense maybe if their play
11563s	style didn't make sense but they adapted
11565s	here I mean they swapped off of the
11567s	Lucio they went uh at least for a little
11569s	bit they went um like they started with
11571s	thei but they did go for the Lucio at
11572s	least for the recontest I do think the
11575s	arari is actually Ena enabling them a
11577s	bit more you can see like kind of that
11579s	consistent damage coming in from the
11581s	backline a bit more than the speed but
11583s	now that they're on defense I'm a bit
11584s	worried because they are going to get
11586s	run over if they're not able to push
11588s	them back yeah it's going to be up to
11590s	Jay on the Lucio there I mean I I've
11593s	read a couple fables in my day I'm
11595s	familiar with the hero's journey you got
11596s	to have the struggle and boy was there
11598s	the struggle on Antarctic Peninsula
11600s	there's now a mountain to overcome and
11603s	it starts here on numani and with that
11605s	attack they do seem primed to be able to
11607s	do just that but the next task the next
11610s	step in the hero's journey is to play
11612s	defense and we'll see if Panther is able
11614s	to keep it up see if they're able to
11616s	keep getting some of those big shots on
11618s	the I was very impressed and if they
11620s	continue to Leverage The High Ground
11622s	they might be able to to keep that
11623s	momentum up but as Aegis approach here
11626s	wheels go down speed boost comes out and
11628s	everybody from Fable getting run over
11630s	Avery and Gusty are so low Avery is
11632s	going to fall Gusty going to go down as
11634s	well and AIS take this High Ground
11637s	essentially for free and yeah you can
11639s	leverage the other High Ground get all
11640s	the pick potential all the damage you
11642s	want but it doesn't amount to anything
11643s	if you don't have a tank to hold
11645s	space with how many games on Nani I'm
11647s	wondering if we're finally going to see
11649s	a team just try to play the opposite
11651s	High Ground instead of trying to hold
11652s	this first one of the split approach cuz
11654s	it has not worked so far every team
11656s	unfortunately for on their defense is
11658s	just going to absolutely run over even
11660s	without the LC I mean we saw Fable do it
11662s	themselves now they're going to get run
11663s	over a little bit themselves it's that
11664s	first one was given up very quickly and
11667s	again this is like they take out be
11669s	that's huge but this the circle that I'm
11670s	worried about is like with that Lucio
11671s	speed they can just continue to push and
11673s	push and push on the side of Aegis
11675s	they're going to keep pushing though
11676s	despite losing Fifi there and they do
11678s	indeed push back as Avery gets fed as
11681s	does Gusty and panther
11683s	Fable they're going to keep falling they
11685s	have to continue to fall back as Aegis
11687s	just keeps Maring on forward and you
11689s	keep talking about you know the Lucio
11690s	versus the Yari as good as Panther is
11693s	the the Lucio just enables that March
11696s	forward it makes it so hard for fable to
11698s	even have a minute to
11700s	breathe yeah the L really enables you as
11703s	a player to hit those head shots and get
11704s	eliminations but the Lucio enables the
11706s	entire team just to run in and
11707s	absolutely run over your opponent so
11710s	that team based style has been working
11712s	for ages th far they're taking The High
11714s	Ground they're only leaving J on the
11715s	card so they're trying to really play
11717s	aggressively here maybe try to zone out
11718s	the people that are caught in here they
11720s	actually might be able to get them but
11722s	it's going to be an immortality field at
11723s	least saving the day for a bit but Zoe
11724s	not able to get out it's a great
11726s	immortality field that comes out from
11728s	Gusty but it is not enough as Zoe does
11730s	fall like you said and Gusty she's going
11732s	to follow and the rest of fable are just
11734s	collapsing like Domino's being
11736s	suffocated under the pressure that AIS
11738s	is mounting right now and this is a
11740s	blazing fast time 54 seven in the time
11743s	bank to try and cap Point C I feel like
11746s	we might be heading for Extra Innings
11747s	unless Fable is able to dig their heels
11749s	in deep it's going to have to be the
11751s	defensive hold of a lifetime maybe swap
11753s	them some things up they do have the
11756s	captive Sun as well as the ant Matrix
11757s	and shortly the gravitic flux butan AJ
11760s	still has so much to work with artillery
11761s	strike gravitic flux their own sound
11764s	barriers right around the corner they
11765s	might just get run over here even with
11767s	Fable having some ultimates here they're
11769s	going to be just oh they get one right
11770s	off that they get two yeah that's a
11773s	great play there from Avery and they
11774s	still have the gravitic flux if they
11775s	need it Mari went ahead and popped hers
11777s	and took down Gusty for it so a little
11779s	bit difficult for fable and a is not
11781s	actually able to get the gravitic flux
11782s	off but doesn't even really need to
11784s	because the rest of fable come through
11786s	and they're able to stabilize at least
11788s	for the time being they now have control
11790s	over this corner and with that gravitic
11792s	flux can potentially start an ult cycle
11795s	that keeps them in this map and Jay used
11798s	the sound barrier that is massive there
11800s	there's nothing to counter the blade the
11803s	uh gratic flux I mean there is a
11805s	mortality field but that can be
11806s	destroyed so there's nothing that is
11807s	like going to be as powerful as that
11808s	beat and that's going to be the G flux
11810s	being used yeah there's no immortality
11812s	field needed Keith very confident that
11813s	they don't need it Jay does fall though
11816s	and the rest of fable can go ahead and
11817s	March forward with there like you said
11819s	no sound barrier to save off the
11821s	pressure so the pressure does Mount and
11823s	Fable they're sitting pretty right now
11825s	and they still have that beat or sorry
11826s	they still have that blade and they can
11828s	just kill time I mean that's what
11829s	they're doing they go for one pick they
11831s	back up the am isn't thrown into their
11833s	face see what they can do the blade it's
11835s	not going to be able to come out Arya
11837s	pops the overclock though but Zoe is not
11839s	able to pop that Dragon Blade and the
11841s	overclock has just clocked out Arya
11844s	Falls and Aegis have finally gotten
11846s	themselves back into this and Fable on
11848s	the back foot it's going to be a almost
11850s	a team kill there a little bit staggered
11852s	there Zoe going to be the first one back
11853s	with that Dragon Blade but AIS they are
11856s	now once again primed to suffocate Fable
11859s	and entirely snuff out what little flame
11862s	they were able ble to stoke there on
11863s	their defense Avery coming out to try
11865s	and get the touch put a little bit of
11867s	damage out but there's going to be a lot
11868s	of damage coming their way here comes
11870s	the captain Sun death is going to fall
11872s	though that is great news if you're if
11874s	you're Fable Dragon Blade going to come
11876s	out and there's still no sound barrier
11878s	from Jay to stop it so Zoe going to find
11880s	a 3K with it Fable
11882s	stabilize they do stabilize but for how
11885s	long that was a lot I mean they used the
11888s	overclock in the last fight plate as
11890s	well as Capon in this one they do have
11891s	an an Matrix that can potentially stay
11893s	off pressure but if Jade gets that beat
11895s	often time if they're able to get the
11897s	sound barrier they can just like run
11899s	straight at them they can run past the
11901s	amrix it's not even a problem they'll
11903s	have all the overshield in the world
11904s	that they'll ever need to get through
11906s	that and they might be actually able to
11907s	catch some of the members of fable off
11909s	on high ground it looks like they get
11910s	out just in the nick of time that almost
11912s	happened for the second time we saw that
11913s	happen previously on that second point
11916s	they're going to be able to drop from
11917s	here this is going to be great
11917s	positioning All Eyes for me right now
11920s	are on Gusty and the way that she's able
11922s	to use
11923s	the uh the immortality field because AIS
11925s	have that Wombo Combo that gravitic flux
11927s	and that artillery strike but death
11929s	Falls before they're able to use it Arya
11931s	with a great heads up pickoff there they
11932s	got to invest their gravitic flux
11934s	without that artillery strike and turns
11935s	out they don't even need it as they turn
11937s	Arya into a pancake there on the
11939s	pavement Panther getting the pick off
11941s	there onto Jay and there's still members
11943s	of fable able to keep the cart in
11945s	contest for Now Zoe takes down Fifi and
11947s	it's so back and forth and it's just
11949s	Mari Le for AIS not able to get enough
11952s	to get the cart fully Capp the spawn
11954s	Advantage just too much too
11956s	insurmountable AIS still not able to
11958s	complete and Fable still cling to life
11961s	and this is where you see thei really
11963s	pay off because there's nowhere to run I
11965s	mean the speed boost as a Defender does
11967s	not matter here you were already backed
11968s	up all the way in your spawn when you're
11970s	able to get the like the tap on to J you
11972s	get the head shot able to take them
11974s	offline and then even if you fall just
11975s	enough building enough time for this uh
11978s	for your team to re-engage it's all you
11980s	could need and more that's huge so with
11982s	the pick off there on to Fifi and Zoe
11984s	has that Dragon Blade if they're able to
11985s	use it able to get back up to full HP
11987s	and Aegis they have to try and play safe
11990s	they're going to go route around the
11991s	corner here and pop the ant Matrix but
11992s	Fable they just kite it they're going to
11994s	go ahead and pop the uh the artillery
11996s	strike as well to try and force people
11997s	back but they're bleeding resources and
11999s	they haven't found any kills and Fable
12002s	they have everything they need they
12003s	still have the blade they still have the
12005s	gravitic slocks Mari with a huge
12007s	accretion to take down Gusty though
12008s	cvitic flux comes down as does the
12011s	captive Sun it takes down death it's so
12013s	Scrappy either way but it looks like AES
12015s	are getting the better of it and that
12017s	might be the cap Fable still have a
12019s	couple of resources but are they going
12021s	to be able to stop this cart the
12023s	blizzard they need the blizzard on the
12024s	point that is the ultimate wi con they
12026s	do get Zoe they need it on the cart
12028s	right now they're going to finally use
12030s	it that's going up at least take out
12032s	Arya and this should eventually finally
12035s	be the capture unless things just
12037s	somehow flip but I don't see that
12039s	happening dragon blade from Zoe comes
12041s	out there is actually potential Zoe with
12043s	two and Gusty had taken out one earli on
12044s	in the fight Gusty hangs on or Zoe hangs
12047s	on sorry but gets just a little bit too
12049s	far away from the cart and Mari is able
12052s	to get the cap there that was there was
12054s	potential there for fable to turn that
12056s	back in their favor but just not enough
12058s	bodies to keep it on the pay or keep
12061s	themselves on the payload and keep it in
12063s	contest yeah I'm not going to call that
12065s	a C9 just cuz I feel like that's just
12067s	unlucky like you're dashing through you
12069s	just miss the point by a sliver it's you
12072s	know you think you're there you're not
12074s	there it's very unfortunate because I do
12076s	think there that was full holdable but
12079s	even so like the fact that Fable it was
12081s	540 when they just got to that third
12084s	point they killed five 4 minutes and 40
12087s	seconds off the clock that is insane now
12091s	they actually tier picks and ult cycling
12093s	that's all all you have to do especially
12095s	once you have that spawn Advantage you
12096s	use the ults you press your advantage
12098s	and find the picks you need to when you
12100s	need to find them and I think the most
12102s	important thing from all that is that
12103s	now they actually have the time make
12104s	Advantage they have almost double the
12106s	time almost 2 minutes that gives you a
12108s	lot more time this is a very far
12110s	attacker spawn it takes you quite a
12112s	while to get there we're going to look
12114s	at Zoe stats as Genji did a great job in
12116s	that final fight keeping things alive
12118s	especially with that blade but like you
12120s	lose this first fight as Aegis and you
12122s	don't take it quick enough that might be
12123s	it like you might only get one
12125s	opportunity to go as a full team there's
12127s	a lot more pressure now on Aegis to like
12128s	win this first fight get that first
12130s	point capture and get that cart moving
12132s	it doesn't seem though that Fable have
12134s	learned their lesson cuz they're still
12136s	going for that split approach I mean you
12138s	know they have they have the Genji they
12139s	are not playing the ash anymore but they
12141s	do have Arya on that sojer and it's
12143s	still that split High Ground approach
12145s	you got to believe AIS just going to go
12146s	for what works what brought them to the
12148s	dance so far and that is speed boosting
12150s	right in and they take down Gusty that
12153s	again all your healing gone you can't
12155s	sustain a tank for all that much longer
12157s	so Avery's life is it's it's numbered
12160s	their days are numbered fa they have to
12162s	back up a little bit as Aegis have The
12164s	High Ground here but Zoe the hero of the
12166s	story going in taking down death has to
12168s	try and get the mega to try and stay
12170s	alive but while they dip away the rest
12172s	of the bodies fall and Aegis are going
12174s	to cap point
12176s	a they are Zoey not going to be long for
12179s	this world immediately he going to be
12181s	taken out I thought there might be a
12182s	chance where they contest it so out a
12183s	little bit longer but honestly it
12185s	doesn't even matter because this is now
12187s	going to be overtime no matter what he
12189s	just always has to have someone on the
12190s	cart they step off it for just a little
12192s	bit B too long it's going to be lights
12193s	out for them to be really careful about
12195s	their positioning you see them playing
12196s	very aggressive they did this last time
12197s	they took this High Ground very quickly
12199s	and it worked out pretty well but I'm a
12202s	little bit worried of how far away the
12203s	card is if they lose this fight 4v5 here
12206s	like this is it this is the a over for
12207s	them here on Nani you got to try and
12209s	stop this card as quickly as you can if
12212s	you're Fable you can't let this start to
12213s	spiral out of control ant m going to
12215s	come out from Keith try and start that
12216s	spiral but Fable they don't have to show
12219s	their faces they don't have to check it
12220s	too much they can just let it expire but
12222s	that's cart progress you take that if
12224s	you're Aegis but the immortality field
12226s	being forced out means if Zoe gets
12227s	healed there might be a way in for the
12230s	Genji but Avery gets so so very low the
12233s	May wall to isolate them they're able to
12235s	hold on just a little bit longer the
12237s	captive Sun comes out but Avery Falls
12239s	the captive sun doesn't find any kills
12242s	gravitic flux comes out from Mari death
12244s	has fallen so there's not going to be a
12246s	whole lot of followup for the damage
12247s	that comes out Arya popping that
12249s	overclock is going to be able to find
12251s	much of anything it does does find that
12253s	immortality field Zoe with a kill there
12255s	onto J and Fable are buying their way
12257s	back into this they have to invest
12259s	everything they have but it might just
12261s	be enough to finally stall the cart out
12262s	and indeed it is halfway through point B
12265s	is where that cart will stop and with 2
12267s	minutes Fable they have a win condition
12270s	if they're chasing that that story book
12272s	ending that is where the next chapter
12275s	begins you got to remember this is Aegis
12278s	in the series leate it's only a first to
12279s	two so this is a very important for
12282s	vable if they want any chance of getting
12284s	that undefeated record uh exiting the
12287s	day the first day of this Swiss stage
12289s	this is the last game of the day the
12290s	last round of the day they have to win
12292s	here to give themselves a chance Aegis
12295s	not exactly in the driver's seat but
12297s	still a very good I would say a solid
12299s	push overall of only a minute to spare
12301s	they get half with the point B so really
12303s	AIS has to hold like the first point for
12305s	a little bit longer like they got to
12306s	kill some time off the clock the second
12308s	point it almost always goes the way with
12310s	the attacker eventually so it's going to
12311s	be about how they hold this first point
12313s	down and I really want to see not the
12315s	same exact hold that every team has
12317s	tried on defense and every team has
12319s	fallen using it doesn't have to
12321s	necessarily be like on the other H or
12322s	just anything else you know I I'd like
12324s	to see a successful defense just once on
12326s	point a please just a crumb of
12328s	successful defense don't just get run
12330s	over by a Lucio and a Bastion on The
12332s	High Ground and be forced to like vacate
12334s	the
12335s	premises death this Bastion put in quite
12339s	a bit of work has helped get their team
12341s	into this poti potential series clining
12343s	scenario but still some more work to be
12345s	done I think with this may they have to
12348s	like you got to wall someone off but
12349s	there's going to be a bash on the side
12351s	there's going to be an echo flying
12352s	around so this oneall might not be
12354s	nearly as useful as you would expect it
12355s	to be because you think you w someone
12356s	off oh it's an instant kill but with all
12358s	this like burst damage it might not
12360s	really amount to much they might just
12362s	get run over again there's still no
12364s	Lucio though so you have to be careful
12366s	Panther has to be able to keep the heals
12368s	up and hit the shots and Zoe has to come
12370s	in from behind and get the big sticky
12372s	bombs but Avery is there with the damage
12375s	and Fable they're able to stabilize
12377s	they're able to just bait Aegis into
12379s	their trap and that's a team kill and if
12381s	that is on a point a cap I don't know
12383s	what is it's not looking good for Aegis
12386s	getting the two but it's looking pretty
12388s	good that we might be going to flash
12390s	point it's a little bit more push from
12391s	Fable to get it across the Finish Line
12393s	here's the most important thing with how
12394s	quickly they took that point they could
12396s	actually potentially lose a fight here
12398s	and still have time to recontest it
12400s	really depends on where like they got
12401s	got to lose it basically at this corner
12403s	and still have like 20 30 seconds left
12405s	but it's possible so they've given
12407s	themselves you know like a condition
12409s	where they can lose and still lose a
12411s	fight and still potentially win out the
12412s	map so there's a lot on the line here
12415s	because they cap so quickly though AIS
12417s	did actually get really good spawn so
12418s	you can see how close they're able to
12419s	hold right now Fable has to find a kill
12422s	and hopefully do it close enough to
12424s	overtime so they can start to leverage
12425s	those OT spawns they got to try and go
12427s	in and make this fight quick a nice wall
12430s	there from FiFi to try and segment off a
12432s	but it's not able to confirm the kill
12434s	but they do find Gusty but the gravitic
12436s	flux comes out is it going to find
12438s	anything it looks like everybody from
12439s	Fable is still alive and healthy the
12441s	gravitic flux from Mari isn't able to
12443s	find anything Avery is just killing
12445s	everyone right now that's a 4K for Avery
12447s	and Fa they keep their feet on the gas
12449s	they're still alive one more fight and
12451s	they may have bought themselves into map
12453s	three Avery really s that you look at
12456s	those stats 44 elim 7 17,000 Damage Done
12461s	really showing that you can be a DPS on
12463s	a tank and here we go final fight this
12466s	will be a reg they swap to the emergency
12468s	reinard just to charge back in the
12470s	Reinhardt and the Moira they're on Fast
12472s	Heroes they only hope they really have
12474s	is that sound barrier but Jay get gets
12476s	ajaxed they're not able to use the sound
12478s	barrier in the captive Sun from Panther
12479s	comes out all the damage coming in the
12481s	kills are going fa's way Keith is able
12484s	to find Gusty though and panther is very
12486s	low has to try and take a little bit of
12488s	a dip behind cover for good measure but
12490s	Bei with the blizzard and everyone from
12492s	Fable they're falling at the final
12493s	hurdle that pick off on Dusty was
12495s	everything and Aegis they're able to
12497s	stabilize they're able to stay alive
12499s	there're still just a couple of members
12500s	to try and dislodge you've got Panther
12502s	taking a timeout in the corner just to
12504s	keep the payload in contest Gusty is
12506s	back on the Lucio Avery back in on the
12509s	doomfist but there is no taking Aegis
12512s	off of this payload right now they are
12513s	glued with Gorilla Glue onto the top of
12516s	it that duplicate comes out from Zoey
12518s	are they able to find anything with it
12519s	Avery Falls the shatter isn't able to go
12522s	off Arya with the overclock finds a kill
12525s	but it's not enough there's not enough
12527s	bodies and it was so close but Aegis are
12530s	able to hold on with the emergency rush
12533s	pick the emergency Reinhardt and Moira
12535s	they broke the glass brought it out and
12537s	despite heroic plays from Fable AES take
12540s	this series two to zero that is
12543s	heartbreaking that is a heartbreaking
12545s	way for this series to end it looks like
12548s	Fable had cracked the code they get such
12550s	a good first attack they win this fight
12553s	pretty Solly but I think the issue is
12554s	they just used too much to win that
12556s	fight there they had time on the clock
12558s	they could have lost it they lick their
12560s	wounds backed up gone for another fight
12563s	after but instead they allow for this
12566s	swap to come out they Ry bra with MOA
12568s	Moira and it works they just swing for
12571s	the fences they get all the damage in
12573s	that they need they sustain so well
12574s	Moira everyone thinks about Moira is
12576s	like oh just you know DPS just like
12578s	completely does damage the entire time
12580s	no aim no brain etc etc but her healing
12583s	orbs are crazy they do so much healing
12586s	and you saw it come out at the very end
12587s	it's what kept Mari alive and it's what
12589s	kept their team in the fight AES W
12592s	taking one of the most amazing back and
12595s	forth first and two series I've ever
12597s	seen in my career and they are punching
12599s	their ticket to three and0 they are now
12601s	one of the teams to beat looking very
12603s	very good throughout this swis stage
12605s	absolutely I love the pick from uh the
12607s	Reinhardt pick from Mari there Fable I
12609s	mean my heart goes out to them because
12611s	that was so close that is a very
12613s	crushing way to lose numani if they're
12615s	still chasing that fairy tale ending
12617s	luckily we're only in Swiss stage so
12619s	there's still a chance they still have a
12620s	winning record we may still be seeing
12622s	more of them in playoffs and I want to
12624s	see more big plays coming out from Avery
12626s	if that's the case because that 4K was
12629s	absolutely everything to play like that
12631s	and for it to be that close it's
12633s	crushing it just it there's no other
12635s	words to describe it to feel like you
12637s	did everything you could and to come up
12639s	just an inch short there are more
12642s	chapters to this story for fable but
12644s	today was not their day the heroes of
12646s	this story are
12648s	AIS yeah their enemies their villains
12651s	AIS they win this round but the heroes
12654s	always rise up once again and I'm sure
12656s	Fable will find some good footing later
12658s	on as we continue on here in Congo
12661s	Heroes minor 3 I just got to say like
12663s	you could see the heart and soul from
12664s	these competitors I think you know we
12666s	could say oh maybe we saw a little bit
12667s	of trolling earlier on but this was just
12670s	all out con like top performance level
12673s	play everyone was giving it their all
12675s	and mistakes happen it's just you know
12677s	this not the best decisions happen but
12680s	everyone gave it their all all the time
12683s	and that's all I can ask for you can
12684s	just you don't even have like player
12686s	cams or anything but I can just tell
12687s	like you know from the way they're
12688s	playing the way they were setting these
12689s	fights up the the rotations the alt
12691s	management all of it everyone was giving
12693s	it 110% and that is exactly why we're
12696s	here yeah it is it is called calling all
12698s	heroes for a reason we put out the call
12700s	and these two teams damer picked it up
12703s	and answered and they came to play and
12705s	again just so close for fable there all
12708s	of the serieses today that we've had
12710s	today have been super super close the
12712s	score lines don't reflect it despite
12713s	being 20 I cannot wait to see what these
12716s	teams do for the rest of the tournament
12717s	cuz we still have another day of Swiss
12719s	play plus the playoffs next weekend and
12722s	I want to see I want to see all the
12724s	teams that we saw today go the distance
12727s	but AIS is definitely going to be a big
12730s	threat someone that might just go the
12732s	distance still boasting that perfect
12734s	record coming out of a barn burner
12737s	against Fable it's pretty crazy you know
12740s	uh never not going to say like on NE
12743s	they don't look good because they have
12744s	some very strong players as you
12745s	mentioned but I don't think looking at
12747s	the initial like draw of the swis stage
12748s	I would have said like this is a team
12749s	that's going to be 3 and0 after day one
12751s	this is a team that's going to be
12752s	undefeated after day one but they are
12754s	proving me they're proving the doubter
12756s	is wrong and they're going to March
12758s	forward at least like at worst they
12760s	finish three and two which is huge
12761s	because that's not necessarily going to
12763s	lock up a spot in the playoffs but it is
12765s	going to get you very very close to one
12768s	look at the difference the difference
12769s	that the Bastion makes that we kept
12771s	alluding to look at the damage that
12773s	death put out and sure that's you know D
12775s	a little more than double the damage for
12776s	roughly double the time played but it's
12779s	value this hero is driving the meta and
12782s	you know he's not a must pick but if you
12784s	pick Bastion and you put the enemy tank
12786s	under that much pressure it just equals
12788s	winds it just puts so much pressure in
12790s	forces so many errors so many misplays
12793s	out of the enemy team that they're just
12794s	scrambling to try and find a solution
12796s	trying to find a way to deal with you
12798s	and sometimes there were glimmers where
12801s	Fable was able to do just that and they
12803s	even did indeed Force death off of that
12804s	Bastion time and time again we saw that
12806s	you know kind of high death count but
12808s	despite the death count the value was
12811s	there AIS got so much value out of that
12813s	pick and Fable just weren't able to
12815s	match it and I my personal belief is
12818s	that what that's what it comes down to
12820s	but you could also say that it comes
12821s	down to how close that that last fight
12823s	was how close it all came down to in the
12826s	very end but we have we're going to have
12828s	an interview with one of the members of
12830s	Aegis to see how they feel once they
12833s	take it a minute to breathe unclench for
12835s	a little bit cuz that was a that was a
12836s	clencher there towards the
12839s	end yeah we're going to be taking a
12841s	break so interview right after
12846s	[Music]

13039s	welcome back everybody I uh I went a
13042s	little hard there my voice is still
13043s	recovering from that last fight there so
13045s	thankfully I get to be joined by Mari
13048s	coming in from Team a just the winner of
13051s	that last matchup there to help uh help
13053s	take some of the pressure off me and
13054s	hopefully he got a little bit of
13056s	pressure off of her after that one it
13057s	was a very close fight but Mari how are
13059s	you doing are you excited to be back for
13062s	another calling all heroes
13064s	tournament I'm spectacular I'm so
13066s	excited I I love playing calling Heroes

13071s	every couple months it's it's it's it's
13074s	what I live for calling all your is is
13076s	in my
13078s	blood we love to hear that Y and you put
13082s	on one heck of a performance definitely
13084s	show that it runs in your veins because
13087s	wow I mean your team as a whole ages has
13089s	been doing incredible far 3 and0 after
13092s	the first day of Swiss I got to ask you
13094s	know with some of these more well-known
13096s	team names some of these really popular
13097s	and famous players in streamers were you
13100s	guys expecting to be doing this well
13101s	early
13102s	on
13104s	100% uh yeah I mean we we I I knew I
13110s	knew I was going to do good my team knew
13112s	they were going to do good
13114s	um I'm I'm I'm not surprised with how
13117s	today was uh we just we just got to keep
13120s	it going into tomorrow and into next
13122s	weekend absolutely well I love the
13125s	confidence it definitely showed in your
13127s	play I wanted to talk about that last
13129s	fight though I mean CB's talking about
13131s	how her voice is gone from it I was in a
13134s	like I was just amazed that you guys
13135s	were able to turn it around and let's
13137s	talk about it you SWA to the emergency
13138s	Reinhardt you swapped to Moira the carts
13141s	almost at that box of Victory they were
13143s	so close to capturing it how was your
13145s	team able to pull off that fight win and
13147s	win the map and the
13149s	series
13152s	um to be totally honest I I don't know
13156s	that's a good answer that's a really
13158s	good answer cuz we don't either I don't
13160s	know I when I go Reinhardt I don't know
13162s	what's happening like I
13163s	I I I don't play that character so it's
13166s	like I I'm just trying to live for as
13168s	long as possible I I didn't swing on a
13170s	lot I I just held right click and then
13173s	hoped my team would kill them and also
13175s	not die um I
13179s	just I was playing for fun essentially
13181s	at that point I I I was letting letting
13185s	the dice roll letting the letting the
13186s	coin
13187s	flip sometimes all it takes is just a
13190s	big rectangle and a ton of faith in your
13192s	team and it's I mean it's clear in those
13194s	in those moments where it mattered the
13195s	most that you did have faith in your
13197s	team and speaking of your team not many
13200s	of the other teams in this tournament
13201s	might have been looking at your team to
13202s	be a Potential Threat but now that
13204s	you've gone 3 0 you have to be
13206s	considered one of the favorites to make
13208s	it to playoffs and potentially make a
13209s	Deep Run so call your shot which teams
13211s	are you looking at who is next on the
13213s	chopping block for
13215s	Aegis
13217s	um I think everybody I think I think we
13220s	beat everybody no prisoners let's go I
13223s	mean I mean I think I beat everybody but
13225s	I need my team to think they can beat
13227s	everybody
13228s	too just a Mari diff that that's all it
13231s	is Mari diff like I said if you got
13233s	faith in your team I believe in you to
13235s	be able to motivate them to uh to bring
13237s	that level bring that level of play and
13239s	hey if you play like you guys did today
13240s	today able to clutch it out in those key
13242s	moments I don't think that there's
13244s	anybody that you can't beat so I I
13246s	believe I'm an agis believer
13248s	now I appreciate
13251s	it but uh I mean that's gonna that's
13253s	going to pretty much do it for the

13312s	a pleasure to get to say hi to Mari and
13314s	check in and see how you're doing
13316s	welcome back and uh again everybody
13318s	you're going to want to keep your eyes
13319s	on Aegis cuz this looks like one of the
13321s	teams to beat you know we talked about
13323s	teams like Valiant guardians or you know
13325s	Washington Timeless that we saw in the
13326s	previous matchup you know that might be
13328s	potential favorites we talked about
13330s	teams like drainers that we saw at the
13332s	top of the evening that could also be
13333s	potential favorites but AIS has to be in
13335s	that conversation after today and you
13337s	love to see it I mean I think there's
13338s	some big names some big team names out
13340s	there but when you see a team like this
13342s	just play this well they really become
13345s	that Dark Horse they really become that
13347s	Underdog Story that we'd love to see and
13350s	we're going to actually see exactly how
13351s	the standings look after our first full
13354s	day of play to see where they are oh
13356s	first place let's go AIS just right
13359s	above the Wast Timeless Vancouver Titans
13362s	blue as well as drainers two teams that
13364s	we've seen one on stream drop actually
13366s	to two and one this is really exciting
13369s	GRE nightmare also have only played two
13371s	matches but like also undefeated like I
13375s	did not expect the top eight to look
13377s	like this whatsoever but that's what
13379s	makes it so much more fun there's so
13380s	many different possibilities of how this
13382s	could all end before we actually get to
13384s	that playoff
13389s	bracket
13393s	unfortunately it looks like we're having
13394s	some production issues hopefully we can
13396s	get CB back in here in just a moment I
13400s	mean looking at the standings I mean bad
13401s	blooded team that we mentioned earlier
13402s	on in the day uh they were one of the
13405s	teams on the bubble for making it into
13408s	that top six and in that guaranteed spot
13410s	at that Championship Finals that will be
13412s	happening later in 2024 and finding them
13414s	at one and two a bit surprising but
13418s	that's just how it is in calling on
13419s	Heroes anyone can ride and be the hero
13421s	they want to be and with that we want to
13424s	remind you that tomorrow we're going to
