| 908s | let get it let's get it |
| 916s | guys hello and welcome one and all to |
| 919s | day number two of the OverWatch World |
| 922s | Cup |
| 924s | 20123 we are back again after one |
| 926s | amazing day of gameplay we got see most |
| 929s | of our teams and today we're going to |
| 931s | see some more I am as hyped as can be |
| 934s | and once again I am joined by my trusted |
| 936s | analyst and Friends Danny and |
| 938s | [Music] |
| 940s | Johnny Danny |
| 943s | I I'm excited day number two know we got |
| 947s | we had great matches yesterday we got |
| 948s | some good ones coming up today I'm |
| 951s | caffeinated as you guys can all tell |
| 954s | let's go I'm feeling good it's got to be |
| 956s | a good day i' be very worried if Danny |
| 958s | is not over over caffeinated at the |
| 960s | beginning of the show let's take a look |
| 961s | at the standings to see how some of our |
| 963s | teams fared yesterday quite frankly on |
| 966s | paper it looked like a bunch of |
| 968s | one-sided matches but I do feel like a |
| 970s | lot of teams actually played it a lot |
| 971s | closer than the score line would suggest |
| 974s | this is where we standing currently |
| 976s | there were some surprises looking at |
| 977s | Group D here Danny yeah I mean it was uh |
| 980s | I think the the most important one was |
| 982s | Japan beating France right I don't think |
| 984s | a lot of people expected uh Japan to |
| 986s | beat France because France had a lot of |
| 988s | big names but Japan they came in clutch |
| 991s | C loud Cloud I love |
| 995s | you yeah no they they've really put on a |
| 998s | show for us and we have so many great |
| 1000s | matches coming our way today quite |
| 1003s | frankly yesterday when we looked at |
| 1004s | today's schedule uh we realize that |
| 1007s | there are a lot of potential bangers |
| 1009s | Johnny you picked that one not two but |
| 1011s | four out of the six matches as your |
| 1012s | favorites to look out for yeah I'll do |
| 1014s | it again I pick all six I'll pick all |
| 1017s | six matches wow okay to look out for |
| 1020s | here we're leaving no team behind Okay |
| 1022s | six really good matches this is going to |
| 1024s | be an incredible week of OverWatch you |
| 1026s | know you know what I like Zoe I like |
| 1027s | OverWatch and we're getting so much of |
| 1029s | it okay we got six matches per day for |
| 1032s | today and two more days of group stages |
| 1035s | and then we get playoffs at blon too |
| 1038s | like there's so much OverWatch I love it |
| 1040s | this is the best I know and thus far |
| 1042s | they really did not disappoint uh we |
| 1045s | already touched a little bit on Japan |
| 1047s | and that group in general let's take a |
| 1049s | look at Group D because quite frankly |
| 1051s | after that Victory from Japan yesterday |
| 1054s | um it seemed like that group actually is |
| 1057s | going to be a lot more competitive than |
| 1059s | we initially expected yes we haven't |
| 1061s | seen the USA and Team Saudi Arabia play |
| 1065s | yet but we do have high expectations for |
| 1068s | both of those teams actually and uh of |
| 1071s | course one of the reasons why we're |
| 1072s | having high expectations for the USA is |
| 1074s | because they are the reigning Champions |
| 1076s | they have to defend their crowd |
| 1079s | this is the team which is currently |
| 1082s | getting the Target on their back do they |
| 1085s | have the same amount of synergy like |
| 1087s | what we expect from Japan uh as well as |
| 1089s | Saudi Arabia well that's going to be a |
| 1092s | tough question because while we have a |
| 1093s | few players coming from the same team uh |
| 1097s | this is a bit of a mix of a group of |
| 1098s | players right they really brought |
| 1099s | America's best but none of these players |
| 1101s | have previously participated in the |
| 1103s | World Cup except for super of course who |
| 1105s | is the one returning member from 2019 |
| 1107s | when USA won the entire thing right so |
| 1110s | the Synergy question is a good one but I |
| 1113s | you know these are all really good |
| 1114s | players and I expect them to come out uh |
| 1116s | having played lots of with each other |
| 1118s | they had a boot camp already going into |
| 1119s | this Tournament of course so I think |
| 1121s | that they'll come into this group stage |
| 1123s | feeling refined feeling like they've got |
| 1125s | the compositions figured out and pretty |
| 1127s | good chemistry already with each other |
| 1129s | so no worries about Team USA they did a |
| 1132s | little bit of trolling and I more than a |
| 1135s | little bit like a lot of trolling in the |
| 1136s | qualifiers um but they should be a here |
| 1139s | in the group stages and they are the |
| 1140s | clear favorite to win their group group |
| 1142s | D I know Danny you're super excited to |
| 1144s | see super back in Action no pun intended |
| 1147s | there yeah I mean Super like we I think |
| 1150s | everyone loves super right I mean he's a |
| 1151s | great player he has he has a very I mean |
| 1154s | very camera what's the word like camera |
| 1157s | friendly |
| 1158s | personality he's got he's good on camera |
| 1160s | he's good on camera there you go see |
| 1162s | he's got RZ as he's got oh wow that's |
| 1166s | that's a that's a use this correctly in |
| 1167s | a sentence that plus his skills as a |
| 1170s | player you know he's he's just a great |
| 1172s | guy I'm super excited I'm happy for him |
| 1174s | to be back uh with the Team USA and also |
| 1176s | I'm really excited to see him play yeah |
| 1178s | I actually I uh in my notes for this |
| 1182s | event I did uh write down that he is |
| 1185s | likely the player with the most |
| 1187s | accolades and I don't know if that's |
| 1189s | factually correct but it just feels like |
| 1191s | it because if you run down the |
| 1193s | list go go for it all right all he two |
| 1196s | times OverWatch League champion one time |
| 1198s | World Cup champion stage two champion in |
| 1200s | the O League M Lee Tournament champion |
| 1203s | rollstar Allstar and MVP runnerup yeah |
| 1206s | that's him that's him super that's a lot |
| 1209s | a lot and also isn't he isn't he the |
| 1210s | only and he's the only person that came |
| 1213s | back to the OverWatch World Cup after |
| 1216s | winning the World Cup in 2019 cuz no one |
| 1219s | else like team anyone no one from Team |
| 1221s | Korea came back only second OverWatch |
| 1223s | World Cup uh so in 2019 when they won um |
| 1227s | today so he showed up for the ones where |
| 1229s | they're winning so you know see how you |
| 1232s | can look we're seeing the accolay I |
| 1234s | think I think some of the some of the |
| 1236s | stuff that so mentioned is isn't on |
| 1237s | there but yeah this guy this guy's but |
| 1239s | it's definitely factually correct please |
| 1242s | don't please don't don't the check uh |
| 1244s | either way I'm super excited to see him |
| 1247s | and the USA Squad in action and so |
| 1251s | should you we get a first look at this |
| 1253s | and many more teams and they have a lot |
| 1255s | to play for that's right because this |
| 1258s | time for the first time in overw Esports |
| 1261s | history this is going to be crowdfunded |
| 1264s | that's right you can support your |
| 1268s | favorite players and I'm not just |
| 1269s | talking about the top 16s that are |
| 1271s | battling it out in the group stage now |
| 1273s | I'm talking about all the players of all |
| 1276s | the 43 teams who have embarked on their |
| 1278s | journey to Bisson earlier this year |
| 1280s | because every single one of them will |
| 1282s | get a share of this price pool so you |
| 1285s | can support and contribute by purchasing |
| 1287s | this world cup bundle which features |
| 1290s | those incredible skins you're currently |
| 1292s | seeing on your screens and so much more |
| 1295s | so it's well worth I I have answers for |
| 1299s | days you know the animal kingdom a lot |
| 1301s | right you know the animals I I do I do I |
| 1303s | do know the animals so is like water |
| 1305s | inspired right what's with the orange |
| 1307s | eyes do do do do a lot of fish and stuff |
| 1310s | have orange eyes like what why does sold |
| 1311s | have orange eyes I I think that was just |
| 1314s | a stylistic choice |
| 1316s | because in here goes well with orange |
| 1320s | okay I was just about to put on color |
| 1322s | theory actually because complimentary |
| 1324s | colors would be blue and orange right |
| 1326s | because they the opposite of the color |
| 1328s | wheel if you will so complimentary |
| 1330s | colors great choices there although her |
| 1332s | skin is more uh heading towards the |
| 1335s | purple and the blue but it's still |
| 1336s | what's a what's a color wheel s right |
| 1340s | get there we get there in the post show |
| 1342s | has uh yeah don't sleep on color color |
| 1344s | wheel yeah I know I know but also don't |
| 1346s | sleep on teams um sure perfect |
| 1349s | transition why not we talked about one |
| 1352s | of the favorites to win it all with Team |
| 1354s | USA but there's plenty of other teams we |
| 1356s | need to discuss and we need to keep our |
| 1358s | eyes on let's kick things off with you |
| 1361s | Danny which team do you think might be |
| 1363s | currently going under people's Radars I |
| 1366s | think I think an underdog or or team |
| 1368s | that we have to look out for is some a |
| 1370s | team from group d uh Saudi Arabia is a |
| 1373s | team that I'm looking out for you know |
| 1375s | uh they got great players uh they |
| 1376s | already have that pre-existing Synergy |
| 1379s | and you know how important that is from |
| 1380s | the matches that we saw yesterday these |
| 1382s | guys have been playing with each other |
| 1384s | uh in the Pro scene and also uh another |
| 1387s | big weapon for team Saudi Arabia I would |
| 1389s | say is their unique style they have a |
| 1392s | unique uh sort of play style and a |
| 1394s | composition they that they really like |
| 1396s | to use so on top of that with you know |
| 1399s | great DPS players as we're seeing quartz |
| 1401s | look at him look at him shoot yeah there |
| 1403s | you go one more is a great yeah I mean |
| 1407s | they got great players they got a unique |
| 1408s | composition that if you're not prepared |
| 1411s | then you know it could be tricky to go |
| 1413s | up against on top of that they also have |
| 1415s | surma Jed on uh on team Saudi Arabia as |
| 1418s | well so this is definitely a a you know |
| 1421s | a dangerous team I would say yeah agreed |
| 1424s | absolutely and now another team which I |
| 1426s | think people stopped sleeping on I think |
| 1428s | everyone woke up watching them yesterday |
| 1430s | is team Japan they have impressed in |
| 1434s | their match against France it quite |
| 1437s | honestly yes that first map on control |
| 1440s | it was close I could have gone either |
| 1441s | way it really came down to the last kind |
| 1443s | of fight but after that second map man |
| 1447s | like they were they were cruising Nico |
| 1449s | that sojourn he was having the upper |
| 1452s | hand against AO actually forcing him off |
| 1454s | of that Soldier more than just once we |
| 1455s | also saw KSG really stepping up on that |
| 1458s | doomfist it was impressive he created so |
| 1462s | much space for his team and then of |
| 1464s | course we have to talk about the |
| 1465s | backline there Cloud on that ilari he |
| 1468s | on that Anna but Q L indeed man like he |
| 1472s | was he was a real big Stand Out Ki as |
| 1475s | well I think overall this team has been |
| 1478s | exceeding most people's expectations we |
| 1481s | did expect them to have a lot of synergy |
| 1483s | uh of course because they are playing |
| 1484s | for verel together for quite some time |
| 1487s | so they are intimately familiar with |
| 1488s | each other but to play like this against |
| 1492s | Team France which is quite star studded |
| 1494s | that was a big surprise and that leads |
| 1497s | us to believe that this team could go |
| 1499s | pretty far now Johnny who you have your |
| 1502s | eyes on look if we're talking about |
| 1504s | underdogs one team with didn't see |
| 1506s | yesterday was team Spain who actually we |
| 1510s | didn't really expect to qualify for the |
| 1512s | group stages it was a bit of an upset |
| 1513s | honestly um you know we looked at a lot |
| 1515s | of really talented teams from the |
| 1517s | European region and Spain I mean they |
| 1519s | had a pretty tough group I mean you're |
| 1521s | competing with the likes of Denmark for |
| 1523s | example who who's got players like |
| 1525s | Shacks I mean you competing with the |
| 1526s | likes of France and Spain ended up |
| 1528s | second in their qualification group must |
| 1531s | you because players like h of course but |
| 1533s | uh really good surprise to see Spain |
| 1535s | here uh representing Europe in the group |
| 1537s | stages and hell you know this is a name |
| 1539s | a household name in European contenders |
| 1542s | spent some time on British hurricane of |
| 1543s | course which is uh a fan favorite it's a |
| 1546s | name many people out there watching will |
| 1548s | be familiar with so if you're not |
| 1550s | currently up to date with European |
| 1551s | contenders I mean he's spending that |
| 1553s | scene for quite some time and you can |
| 1554s | see the accolades as well you know |
| 1556s | always competing uh you know buying for |
| 1559s | that a top tier spot in OverWatch |
| 1561s | Esports essentially so H is a great tank |
| 1564s | player for Spain of course and also |
| 1566s | you'll be familiar with h of course Zoe |
| 1568s | because H competed for Switzerland in |
| 1570s | 2018 and 2019 so there you |
| 1573s | go convinced will are you going to |
| 1575s | support yourth of course I I'm |
| 1579s | supporting everyone because I just want |
| 1581s | to see good games honestly I feel |
| 1583s | because switzeland is not in it I don't |
| 1585s | have any I don't have any horse in this |
| 1587s | race I'm just enjoying some fantastic |
| 1589s | OverWatch and thus far the teams have |
| 1591s | delivered just that we want to know who |
| 1594s | you are cheering on at home as well |
| 1596s | which flag are you wearing loud and |

| 1846s | day two is about to start we are getting |
| 1848s | ready for our first match of the day we |
| 1852s | get a few new looks at some of those |
| 1854s | teams and other teams are getting a |
| 1856s | chance to redeem themselves off to their |
| 1858s | day one performance but first things |
| 1861s | first let me remind everyone that you're |
| 1863s | not just here to uh witness fantastic |
| 1866s | OverWatch no you will also be getting |
| 1869s | drops special drops for watching and |
| 1871s | lots of other cool things coming your |
| 1873s | way so make sure to you know get the |
| 1876s | back hey you should we talk about the |
| 1878s | Skins I love the weapon charms all right |
| 1881s | get me some of those weapon |
| 1883s | charms H weapon charm |
| 1885s | Enthusiast same actually same it's the |
| 1887s | little things drops and drops they do |
| 1891s | look nice you're doing great Danny keep |
| 1893s | it up that was good background noise I |
| 1897s | you know I was I was expecting some sort |
| 1899s | of you know someone to stop me or |
| 1900s | anything but you guys didn't so I just |
| 1902s | kind of went on and no you should keep |
| 1904s | yeah I think I think again you've you've |
| 1906s | been doing it really really good another |
| 1908s | team which has been doing it really |
| 1909s | really good has been team Thailand |
| 1912s | because Thailand yesterday were very |
| 1915s | very convincing in their 20 VI iory |
| 1918s | right I mean they look dominant |
| 1919s | yesterday against Hong Kong and |
| 1921s | yesterday I was the thing that I was |
| 1923s | looking out for was Tito because he you |
| 1925s | know all I mean other than Tito everyone |
| 1928s | else was you know they do play for the |
| 1929s | same team so I was sort of worried how |
| 1932s | he was going to perform with the rest of |
| 1934s | the team Thailand team but I mean he was |
| 1936s | fantastic along with you know the people |
| 1938s | like or you know players that we're |
| 1940s | seeing right now like Ace and all of |
| 1941s | these guys they have the Synergy they |
| 1944s | are so they they have the cohesion and I |
| 1946s | think you know |
| 1948s | against today's Spain I don't know I |
| 1950s | don't know Johnny I think I think |
| 1952s | Thailand has the upper hand I would say |
| 1954s | yeah I mean I expected more from Calin |
| 1956s | like we saw here on circuit Royale |
| 1957s | playing these slower Sigma compositions |
| 1959s | but Thailand being able to play doomfist |
| 1961s | as well I mean that's a great ad they |
| 1963s | can play different styles yeah and here |
| 1966s | is the Spanish lineup this is the first |
| 1969s | time we get to see them what do we know |
| 1971s | about these guys Johnny well they've had |
| 1973s | a couple of change UPS from the |
| 1974s | qualifier so they have two new damage |
| 1976s | players coming into this lineup as well |
| 1978s | uh crazy Dragon was on the r before of |
| 1980s | course but they've changed things up a |
| 1981s | little bit from the qualifiers so it is |
| 1983s | going to be a bit of a different look |
| 1985s | when it comes to the damage players but |
| 1987s | like you're seeing here hell on the |
| 1989s | Winston is going to be a main stay uh |
| 1991s | for these guys and so that is probably |
| 1993s | the player that I'm looking out for |
| 1994s | obviously I highlighted H earlier but it |
| 1996s | is it is kind of like the pivotal role |
| 1998s | for Spain here and it's really going to |
| 1999s | set the pace for this team so uh we'll |
| 2001s | have to see what Spain brings with this |
| 2003s | kind of like fresh identity when it |
| 2005s | comes to this team um but yeah I'm |
| 2006s | expecting pretty good things from Spain |
| 2008s | and look this is them essentially |
| 2011s | playing for the second spot in this |
| 2013s | group right because we all agree that |
| 2015s | China the the team from China is going |
| 2017s | to be the big favorite in this group |
| 2019s | right so if you're Thailand if you're |
| 2021s | Spain you kind of have to beat each |
| 2023s | other to get that second spot right so |
| 2025s | yeah this match is really important for |
| 2027s | both teams it really is and obviously |
| 2030s | Spain is coming into this with a bit of |
| 2032s | an advantage as they got to watch |
| 2034s | Thailand play yesterday they now know |
| 2036s | that you you know team Thailand they |
| 2038s | look really good on those doomfist |
| 2039s | compositions Etc so maybe they've done |
| 2042s | their homework we're looking at |
| 2043s | predictions I had to do it Johnny I had |
| 2046s | to do it got support got to support help |
| 2049s | of course the lore is coming in clge |
| 2052s | vamos hops but not really it's actually |
| 2055s | Spain but why not why not let's give |
| 2058s | this one to Spain two and one uh I I |
| 2062s | think I'm I'm pretty sure I went in |
| 2063s | Thailand I remember did I go two Z there |
| 2065s | you go you know they had a dominant they |
| 2068s | I don't know I I put it I put in my |
| 2070s | predictions wa like early in the morning |
| 2072s | I don't know what I said you don't know |
| 2073s | what done before coffee dude I'm I'm |
| 2075s | happy with that one you know two Z |
| 2077s | Thailand they look dominant yesterday |
| 2079s | and I think I'm going to I think they're |
| 2081s | going to take it again uh against Spain |
| 2082s | today as well yeah I I I went with |
| 2085s | Thailand too look there there's so much |
| 2086s | fun Thailand and Japan are like my two |
| 2089s | my my two teams that I just love rooting |
| 2091s | for so I'm going with Thailand in this |
| 2093s | match up as well they looked really |
| 2094s | clean yesterday and I think they'll come |
| 2096s | out as the second team from this group |
| 2099s | right on well there only one way to find |
| 2101s | out and that's to get the match started |
| 2104s | we ready the teams are ready so let's |
| 2105s | send it over to Moxy and Dustin for all |
| 2108s | the |
| 2110s | action hello welcome everybody back from |
| 2113s | the desk obviously today we having an |
| 2115s | exciting match up like the desk |
| 2116s | obviously previewed us for sorry guys |
| 2118s | for you know kind of going into today |
| 2121s | it's going to be exciting Moxy I mean |
| 2122s | what do you think leading into this |
| 2124s | match up between Spain and Thailand I |
| 2126s | mean I'm really excited like the desk |
| 2128s | talked about no one really expected |
| 2131s | Spain to make it for the qualifiers and |
| 2133s | they were able to make it second in |
| 2134s | group a because they were able to take a |
| 2137s | win against Team France so they're going |
| 2139s | to be feeling pretty happy Thailand |
| 2141s | however are not because we have Emily |
| 2144s | here with us to be able to give us a |
| 2146s | little bit more info on why exactly |
| 2149s | Thailand are feeling a little bit or |
| 2151s | tredition going up against team Spain |
| 2154s | these two have history in the World Cup |
| 2156s | right Emily |
| 2158s | yes um prior to this morning's match uh |
| 2162s | we got to speak to Thailand a little bit |
| 2164s | and they said that they face Spain every |
| 2167s | year in the OverWatch World Cup and |
| 2169s | Spain has always been their toughest |
| 2171s | enemy so they do hope to keep their |
| 2173s | momentum going like yesterday um |
| 2175s | yesterday was a great match for Thailand |
| 2178s | everyone showed their best performance |
| 2180s | and uh aside from tiad and opua who have |
| 2184s | had Land Experience the other three |
| 2185s | never had it before so they were a |
| 2187s | little bit |
| 2188s | nervous um but everyone just you know |
| 2191s | put their aame put their best foot |
| 2193s | forward and I think that's how they were |
| 2194s | able to get their win yesterday now |
| 2198s | speaking of Spain however kind of like |
| 2200s | reinforc mentioned earlier they also did |
| 2203s | see themselves as The Underdogs coming |
| 2205s | in from qualifiers but overall Spain's |
| 2208s | mindset is really positive and they have |
| 2211s | really young players in the roster |
| 2212s | especially their backline so they want |
| 2214s | all of us to keep an eye out for the |
| 2216s | best backline in Europe and um finally I |
| 2221s | think I want to throw this over to |
| 2222s | Dustin um Spain mentioned that they they |
| 2227s | have to keep their strats a secret right |
| 2230s | but the one thing they did tell us is |
| 2231s | that they're going to play their Spanish |
| 2233s | style Tiki taka like the Spanish |
| 2235s | national football team so what do you |
| 2236s | think that means how does that cross |
| 2238s | over to |
| 2239s | OverWatch uh they're uh going to do a |
| 2242s | hurricane uh pass I don't I don't watch |
| 2245s | soccer Emily what the heck what |
| 2248s | no do football I do not know soccer okay |
| 2252s | it's soccer first of all I mean we are |
| 2254s | in the European match up right now so I |
| 2255s | mean we'll see if uh you know they |
| 2258s | actually do manage to Bullet that secret |
| 2259s | strategy like Emily mentioned meanwhile |
| 2261s | Moxy obviously we're going to ilos first |
| 2264s | on ruins in particular I mean kind of |
| 2266s | interesting compositions already decided |
| 2268s | by both Thailand and Spain yeah it's |
| 2271s | really interesting that Spain did say |
| 2272s | that they were feeling that confident |
| 2274s | about that back line coming from the |
| 2276s | European tend we are very familiar with |
| 2278s | both canel and Gala and canel is one of |
| 2280s | those standout players who Roose to |
| 2283s | prominence in 2022 with Munich H however |
| 2286s | has been around the scene a lot longer |
| 2289s | and he's back on the orisa oh this makes |
| 2291s | my clock hook been DET in Nostalgia |
| 2293s | goggles incredibly happy rack on it with |
| 2297s | Punk also dting over towards that |
| 2299s | Bastion piland obviously playing a very |
| 2302s | aggressive composition with that |
| 2304s | doomfist ready to go for a dive |
| 2307s | realistically whenever but I mean Spain |
| 2308s | is taking full advantage of this point |
| 2310s | Ace over the top does have that full |
| 2312s | charge but only sees an Arisa meanwhile |
| 2314s | the rest Thailand actually's held |
| 2316s | potentially out of position as the |
| 2317s | immortality field was used to save the |
| 2319s | Bastion but he makes back to his team in |
| 2321s | time kind of foring Thailand's push for |
| 2323s | now also pushing tiat back towards that |
| 2326s | point however Ty still are the ones to |
| 2327s | capture it first however Punk across the |
| 2329s | map what aade on the pale p and also |
| 2332s | Gala finding T wat an amazing second |
| 2334s | pick to find however Ace does trade back |
| 2336s | canal and then he also finds Punk with |
| 2338s | some help from the Tracer of Thailand |
| 2340s | however two are immediately traded back |
| 2342s | for Spain and then they clean up on on |
| 2344s | high Visions as well to reclaim the |
| 2346s | point yeah but H is just a monster of |
| 2348s | sustain it should be noted however that |
| 2350s | because tent were able to take that |
| 2351s | first cap they were able to stall it out |
| 2353s | for 17% and Ace coming with those kills |
| 2356s | does mean he's pretty close to overclock |
| 2358s | but G is going to kick things off not |
| 2360s | allowing tyen any opportunity to try and |
| 2362s | engage cleanly for a fast flip going for |
| 2365s | that captive on just forcing that dive |
| 2367s | further back so that crazy dragon can |
| 2369s | look to invade this back line doesn't |
| 2371s | man to find a pulse bomb kill still |
| 2373s | keeps the BR away oh yeah nice pul from |
| 2375s | high Vision but imly counter by the |
| 2377s | immortality field SP going for that |
| 2379s | early engage might cost them here help |
| 2380s | goes so low with the healing from canale |
| 2383s | he lives but eventually Ace will kill |
| 2385s | him with that overclock Goa does trade |
| 2387s | back audo and Punk with a 3K so far in |
| 2390s | this fight almost a four as Spain holds |
| 2393s | after some early ult usage oh gorgeous |
| 2396s | amplification Matrix coupled up with |
| 2398s | Punk on that Bastion and Thailand they |
| 2401s | have a doomfist as a tank that's not a |
| 2403s | whole lot of absorption coming out from |
| 2405s | this composition something that |
| 2407s | immediately Spain have been able to take |
| 2408s | full advantage of high Vision now is |
| 2410s | going to go actually onto that Genji so |
| 2413s | be able to better infiltrate into this |
| 2414s | SP line try and bully a little bit more |
| 2417s | of those abilities coming through from |
| 2418s | that P namely that immortality fi so you |
| 2421s | can properly jump on the Bastion without |
| 2424s | having to worry about the threat of that |
| 2426s | transformation considering you're going |
| 2428s | to have the deflex to be able to keep |
| 2429s | yourself a little bit safer right well |
| 2432s | the paws will come through having a bit |
| 2434s | of an audio issue on one of the team |
| 2436s | side looks like the side of Spain but |
| 2438s | you know both teams kind of figuring |
| 2439s | that out with the admins uh surely will |
| 2442s | be back in pretty soon but obviously |
| 2443s | these first fights have been relatively |
| 2445s | close Moxy I mean what do you think so |
| 2446s | far between this game Spain has hold on |
| 2449s | held on to the point now at 50% margins |
| 2451s | but I mean they've kind of had some |
| 2453s | close calls yeah they're running a |
| 2455s | Bastion with a with this orisa so it's |
| 2458s | going to be really dicey for this dive |
| 2460s | to try and decide on a specific Target |
| 2462s | right because even if with the dive |
| 2464s | you're able to find kill if it's not |
| 2466s | onto the orisa she's just going to |
| 2468s | fortify stand on that point and use that |
| 2470s | 45% damage reduction to wait for a |
| 2473s | regroup from the rest of your team P |
| 2474s | strike from Punk Ry meanwhile T actually |
| 2477s | cancels it only got one off nice punch |
| 2479s | from him but then goes aggressive with |
| 2481s | his ultimate however H with the teras |
| 2483s | able to find High Visions who is looking |
| 2485s | to make a push here h just kind of |
| 2487s | sitting in the middle of Thailand as |
| 2488s | they're trying to do something here |
| 2490s | rallying against the ISA will eventually |
| 2492s | be able to kill him but I mean with that |
| 2494s | too much resources invested in just |
| 2496s | taking out help we'll see Punks on the |
| 2498s | point eventually be taken out by T crazy |
| 2500s | Dragon trades back P but the T have |
| 2503s | enough damage with the rest of his team |
| 2504s | here down really low HP and in fact Gala |
| 2507s | will find him Spain boasted about their |
| 2509s | incredibly strong support lineup with |
| 2512s | Gala and it's actually coming to |
| 2513s | fruition at the moment Gala oh my God |
| 2516s | captive son into a 3K to reclaim the |
| 2520s | point they gave it up for a second but |
| 2522s | they have it back under their control |
| 2524s | well if that isn't backing up the |
| 2525s | statement of best backline in Europe I |
| 2527s | don't know what is Thailand had even |
| 2529s | swapped P onto the KIRO to try and Swift |
| 2532s | step from Spawn to a player on point so |
| 2535s | that they could try and stagger it out |
| 2536s | because they have been able to find the |
| 2537s | flip off of The Kills earlier on in that |
| 2539s | fight but Gala immediately shuts them |
| 2541s | down and secures team Spain the win of |
| 2544s | the fight and and now we're in last |
| 2547s | fight territory High Vision so close |
| 2549s | that blade that it might be too far |
| 2550s | Dustin cuz he has to jump the Yari and |
| 2553s | girl is not going to go down without a |
| 2555s | fight no Spain just have to clean up |
| 2558s | Paulie now I they're going to win this |
| 2559s | first round and I can already see all |
| 2561s | the twitch chat comments allori by the |
| 2563s | way support by the way I mean it just |
| 2564s | always happens when it's a Baptist or an |
| 2567s | allari it just feels like nobody gives |
| 2568s | the support player credit but I mean |
| 2571s | that was awesome by Gala and the rest of |
| 2573s | Spain I mean it's it's so tough for this |
| 2577s | dive to try and formulate on any Target |
| 2580s | in that composition right you can't go |
| 2582s | for the orisa because I mean if you send |
| 2584s | the dest after even with things like |
| 2586s | power block it just gets disrupted |
| 2587s | entirely by the javelin throw you can't |
| 2590s | go for the backline because the arari is |
| 2592s | just going to be able to either one V |
| 2594s | one whoever you send jump away or the |
| 2597s | Bap is going to throw down immortality |
| 2598s | field at least if you go for the B |
| 2599s | you've baited out the ability but |
| 2602s | unfortunately because everyone from |
| 2604s | Spain is just so good in terms of |
| 2605s | sustain on that own Bing out immortality |
| 2608s | field is not the fight win condition |
| 2610s | that it is for some of these other |
| 2613s | compositions SP now Rock in that same |
| 2615s | composition except with Canal onto that |
| 2617s | Anna meanwhile Thailand they have that |
| 2620s | Diva out there with the echo this time |
| 2621s | and a tracer to follow through MOX they |
| 2624s | actually rotate expected it though |
| 2626s | they've got yeah they got punk on the |
| 2629s | ash crazy dragon as well that Tracer H |
| 2631s | is kind of the target here again but |
| 2632s | poly I mean kind of goes down for it did |
| 2635s | have some help from the Tracer |
| 2636s | eventually they take out he but I mean |
| 2638s | it might be you know it takes so many |
| 2639s | resources just to kill H where three |
| 2641s | members are already gone for Thailand |
| 2642s | before they kill him n Spain just has to |
| 2645s | rotate over to this point teok gets |
| 2646s | staggered into the pit and they CL they |
| 2649s | capture that point first Thailand's |
| 2651s | always had this game plan whenever |
| 2653s | they've played control point of just |
| 2655s | trying to bully the other team out of |
| 2658s | space so they can pick up that first |
| 2660s | point and it forces the other team into |
| 2662s | throwing in Ultimate even if you lose |
| 2664s | the fight you're still stacking up point |
| 2666s | percentage but Spain just does not allow |
| 2668s | that to happen again that sustain is |
| 2670s | absolutely insane even if you target the |
| 2672s | orisa crazy dragon and punk just have so |
| 2674s | much better mobility and Galler is |
| 2675s | absolutely Unstoppable at the moment |
| 2677s | Thailand may have the echo but they |
| 2679s | don't have the mercy pocket so Crossing |
| 2681s | into a position for the echo to get |
| 2683s | close enough to use that focusing beam |
| 2684s | is so hard to do G kind of playing that |
| 2687s | modern day Flex support just always on |
| 2689s | that rotate gets eventually back towards |
| 2691s | his team on the cage side as they rotate |
| 2693s | all the way around Thailand now halfway |
| 2695s | to capturing that point but Spain |
| 2697s | eventually comes on to the objective to |
| 2698s | contest it make sure it stays in their |
| 2701s | favor for now P Spa from crazy Dragon |
| 2702s | connects onto audo who was in the |
| 2704s | immortality field and bashed out of it |
| 2706s | so no that's terrible for Thailand and |
| 2709s | now in the main side it's just on ply to |
| 2711s | live and you can't save yourself from |
| 2713s | crazy Dragon who just killed three |
| 2715s | people in this fight a Stoke after |
| 2717s | getting his own pulse bomb came back to |
| 2719s | counter out crazy dragon and Tylan get |
| 2721s | the flip but they lose their Diva Mech |
| 2722s | off of Kat if they have enough help Nan |
| 2725s | boosted on to the point p goes to kill |
| 2727s | both Ace and Tian so even though they |
| 2729s | gave up the point for a second ESP or |
| 2732s | Spain get it back yeah that's not even |
| 2735s | really a wasted Nano you're able to find |
| 2737s | the flip you're able to shut out tyon |
| 2739s | before they can try and use the higher |
| 2740s | mobility of things like the diva and the |
| 2742s | echo to be able to stagger and off of |
| 2744s | all the damage that Punk's done you've |
| 2746s | bolt up Bob to be able to disrupt any |
| 2749s | spal zoning that Talent want to set up |
| 2751s | with this amplification Matrix |
| 2753s | canalo have some good ultimates but no |
| 2755s | they're back on line I mean poly dead |
| 2757s | again hyren traes back punk goes down so |
| 2760s | at least tyer getting trades in this |
| 2762s | fight becoming ultimate from Gala didn't |
| 2765s | really find a ton of value directly High |
| 2767s | missions in the copy just wants to take |
| 2768s | out Canal does so also gets the copy |
| 2770s | terer so that's going to be a lot of |
| 2772s | damage in the H and in fact it takes him |
| 2774s | out 91% on the board and climbing but |
| 2777s | tyan claim that objective back and look |
| 2780s | for stagger kills but look at what Spain |
| 2782s | did they recognized when those kills |
| 2784s | came through that they were going to |
| 2785s | lose that fight and they held on to a |
| 2788s | lot of ultimates off of purely the |
| 2791s | captive sun coming through from Gala |
| 2793s | Thailand got so scared that they had to |
| 2795s | throw in three ultimates now they've |
| 2798s | only got amplification Matrix and |
| 2799s | they're hoping that Ace is going to be |
| 2800s | able to buy themselves the time to be |
| 2802s | able to build up this pulse b as being |
| 2804s | try and push through but they're the |
| 2806s | ones that lose a player first yeah I |
| 2808s | mean it keeps happening Ty they keep |
| 2809s | losing one Member First Bob also out for |
| 2813s | Punk it seems like a Ty trying to find |
| 2817s | something here I mean they got to win |
| 2818s | this fight or at least wait for high |
| 2820s | Vision to come out they do find H again |
| 2822s | so I mean they keep getting at least |
| 2824s | trades and also Paulie finds crazy |
| 2826s | Dragon so Ty actually holding here even |
| 2829s | though they lost that first member of |
| 2831s | their team they're looking strong yeah |
| 2833s | but look at what Spain is going to be |
| 2835s | approaching H's going onto the Winston |
| 2837s | so that canel has a better Nano booster |
| 2839s | Target for this dive engagement Gala is |
| 2841s | going to be able to have a captive son |
| 2843s | Ace does have the pulse bom and because |
| 2845s | they don't have that bad it does me no |
| 2847s | immortality field this pulse PL has to |
| 2848s | be on |
| 2850s | point sting on this right side CL for |
| 2853s | the P Punk slow enough anyways though so |
| 2855s | they do kill him and eventually hell |
| 2857s | falls back to the main side but are they |
| 2859s | going to go for a soft reset here or at |
| 2860s | least go for trades I mean hell finds |
| 2862s | High Vision but dies late now Spain in a |
| 2864s | weird position Punk's going to swap over |
| 2866s | to Sombra Ace does he want to go for |
| 2868s | more no he's going to come back so this |
| 2869s | is going to give Spain another chance at |
| 2870s | this point this Sombra is a really good |
| 2873s | swap you can either try and Bully the |
| 2875s | Baptist and throwing out the immortality |
| 2877s | field only or you can melt the diva x t |
| 2879s | can't use the self-destruct to be able |
| 2881s | to stall out in this last fight also |
| 2884s | available for Gala now goes for a punk |
| 2886s | though will die on the engage and it |
| 2888s | doesn't look they have to follow through |
| 2889s | crazy Dragon Gets the pulse Gala still |
| 2891s | here as well comes back to the peel but |
| 2893s | they still down a person on the team T |
| 2895s | eventually will find Gala after coming |
| 2897s | down from the sky and Canal in Thailand |
| 2899s | kind of to make a comeback on well to |
| 2901s | bring us to round number three really |
| 2904s | good swaps coming for from Team Thailand |
| 2906s | love the diva love the fact as well that |
| 2909s | they gave up on the echo they were |
| 2911s | seeing that it wasn't getting value they |
| 2913s | were taking so much damage just on Entry |
| 2916s | to all of those fights not just from the |
| 2918s | hitan of the ash but also from Gala on |
| 2920s | that arari they knew that they need to |
| 2922s | find some distraction to allow Ace to |
| 2925s | start actually popping off and worming |
| 2927s | their way into the back line and that |
| 2928s | Diva and the Genji allowed them to do |
| 2931s | exactly that and it meant that Spain |
| 2933s | weren't able to put their game plan into |
| 2935s | motion we saw how swap onto the Winston |
| 2937s | to enable that Nano boost and every |
| 2939s | single time spin wanted to have the |
| 2941s | opportunity to use it they were |
| 2943s | disrupted they were having to turn |
| 2944s | around to all of the backline Frets that |
| 2945s | team Thailand were providing the |
| 2948s | disruption as you described it I mean |
| 2949s | Thailand really good at just coming back |
| 2951s | constantly running a very similar |
| 2953s | composition they did in the previous one |
| 2954s | as well meanwhile Spain locking to that |
| 2957s | Winston this time p through beh help I |
| 2960s | mean takes a ton of poke already very |
| 2962s | low 20% Health remaining on him will get |
| 2964s | healed up but that's a lot space gone |
| 2967s | for the likes of Spain pylon also goes |
| 2969s | down from high Vision as Gala obviously |
| 2972s | went for a bit of a flank angle on the |
| 2973s | top side nice easy grenade connects onto |
| 2975s | Thailand but it's tiat to find G on the |
| 2978s | backside Punk and crazy dragon come the |
| 2979s | other though and find three also tat |
| 2982s | will lose that Mech and then baby Diva |
| 2984s | for him so Spain will claim the |
| 2986s | objective first yeah gorgeous anony like |
| 2989s | you said coming for from Canal and |
| 2991s | immortality field had already been |
| 2992s | invested earlier before the anti |
| 2994s | actually hit so the second that that is |
| 2996s | gone Spain just pull the trigger and |
| 2999s | really initiate in with that dive |
| 3001s | composition H vision is actually going |
| 3003s | back to spawn probably SW back onto the |
| 3004s | Genji yeah there it is they tried the |
| 3006s | echo they wanted to try and control all |
| 3008s | of the lanes of high ground that punk |
| 3009s | wasn't getting just a shooting gallery |
| 3012s | to pick upart these players on rotation |
| 3014s | but it's just not working out because |
| 3016s | being were able to take that first cap |
| 3018s | Don't Go Over the Top as it needs to be |
| 3019s | contested and he goes down low without |
| 3021s | having a support there so excellent die |
| 3023s | from Thailand can pops the anab boost on |
| 3025s | H so they're trying to come back in this |
| 3027s | fight down a member of their team they |
| 3029s | do so Canal's able to find ply meanwhile |
| 3032s | High Visions trades back help so it is |
| 3034s | now actually in favor of Thailand to |
| 3035s | come back through after the nanab Boost |
| 3037s | was used on Spain's side as Thailand |
| 3040s | hold the hold the point for a little bit |
| 3041s | longer yeah TI just taking a little bit |
| 3044s | of a dive to be able to get that Mech |
| 3046s | back with the boosters he will be back |
| 3047s | in the fight before Spain are ready to |
| 3049s | regroup especially since e is just |
| 3051s | waiting for everyone to move past him so |
| 3054s | he can jump on this back line I think |
| 3056s | he's been spotted out however yeah H and |
| 3058s | punk will collaborate to push the Tracer |
| 3060s | away and keep Canal safe at least the |
| 3062s | dive isn't necessar on the back have |
| 3064s | pulse bom committed but a blocks it with |
| 3066s | the shield immortality fi still used |
| 3068s | however to negate the damage potential |
| 3070s | go still finds Ace on their dive as well |
| 3073s | so a lot of resources being used from |
| 3075s | Tyler to live here audo and ply come |
| 3078s | together to find crazy Dragon and also |
| 3081s | drop that window too so they want to win |
| 3083s | this fight even though they're missing |
| 3085s | one of the members of their team H will |
| 3087s | go down to H as well prop the Primal |
| 3089s | Rage understanding he kind of needed to |
| 3091s | because so many ult are being pop for Ty |
| 3092s | to commit the diva bomb and they still |
| 3094s | lose tawat towards the point perfect |
| 3095s | Shield usage from Gala and the rest of |
| 3098s | Spain kind of regroup on this point |
| 3100s | there's no tank here so not a lot of |
| 3102s | Point pres necessarily for Thailand |
| 3103s | they're just going to run in and stagger |
| 3105s | but it's stall yeah I mean they do get |
| 3106s | the stall down up to 70% so you're right |
| 3109s | I mean they they get some sort of |
| 3110s | Advantage |
| 3111s | there it is stole so like you said Team |
| 3114s | Talent have been able to put themselves |
| 3115s | up to 70% High vision is coming in with |
| 3118s | a blade they're not running the Anna so |
| 3120s | they're not going to be able to enable |
| 3121s | it with a nano boost but it does mean |
| 3123s | that punk is going to be forced to try |
| 3124s | and hold on to this EMP to shut the |
| 3126s | Genji down as quickly as possible but he |
| 3128s | goes back to the diva boosters that's |
| 3130s | the worst possible start to the fight |
| 3132s | because now High Vision has a free blade |
| 3134s | and he's hunting down Canal yeah it's |
| 3136s | tough the situation to be in there go |
| 3137s | does trade him back but yeah it might be |
| 3140s | bit too late and he's time to get that |
| 3142s | Point Flip as well I mean they do have |
| 3144s | to wait for high Vision to come back |
| 3145s | from Spa but Spain you know do they come |
| 3147s | back with that EMP nearly 80% on the |
| 3149s | board for Thailand and no ultimates |
| 3151s | either MOX I mean Spain have to go for |
| 3154s | an engage here hell goes so low on the |
| 3156s | back does get healed up by canel and |
| 3158s | also gets theab boost re-engage as well |
| 3160s | Punk over the top does have EMP |
| 3162s | available go for the back doesn't |
| 3164s | actually want to use it in fact he goes |
| 3166s | down with it Ace in the rest of his team |
| 3168s | come through to find Punk so that's the |
| 3171s | big ultimate for Spain gone now as |
| 3173s | Thailand understanding that maybe they |
| 3174s | just want to win right here now help |
| 3175s | gets the P rage though very low HP will |
| 3178s | pop it eventually the rally comes |
| 3179s | through from audo as well so tyon still |
| 3181s | healthy here on the objective Spain |
| 3184s | waiting for Punk to come back now he |
| 3186s | drops the EMP but it's after H is gone |
| 3188s | Diva bomb as well from tat to Zone at |
| 3190s | the point crazy dragon only able to find |
| 3191s | one Canal will find high Visions at the |
| 3194s | very least Theo so low too no more |
| 3196s | supports for Thailand at least Spain |
| 3198s | have Canal it's Ace on that point trying |
| 3201s | to find the support of Spain but he |
| 3203s | cannot and the rest of Spain on the |
| 3205s | outside do claim the objective and are |
| 3207s | looking for staggers on Thailand both of |
| 3210s | those teams were desperate to win out |
| 3212s | that sustain fight you actually saw hell |
| 3215s | try to go on the doomfist to be able to |
| 3216s | tap back in in time p as well went to |
| 3219s | the Lucio to try to regroup fast enough |
| 3222s | to be able to just wash over team Spain |
| 3225s | with numbers Advantage doesn't happen |
| 3227s | but they have been able to burn out both |
| 3229s | the N boost the Primal and the EMP from |
| 3231s | Spain and crazy Dragon B bomb didn't |
| 3233s | find anything now it's just going to be |
| 3235s | Spain trying to by themselves the time |
| 3236s | to build up these support ultimates so |
| 3238s | they can sustain on that point and take |
| 3240s | it to last fight H chased again but it's |
| 3243s | Park to come out on top taking out |
| 3246s | Highland support meanwhile also all of |
| 3248s | them are just kind of wiping slowly at |
| 3250s | the moment I mean the r here on the |
| 3252s | point two nobody's able to touch in time |
| 3254s | either and it was close but Spain are |
| 3257s | going to be the ones to win ilos yeah |
| 3260s | it's really unfortunate for team |
| 3261s | Thailand they do things like swap onto |
| 3263s | the echo to try and have that dive that |
| 3266s | jump onto the Winston be as punishing as |
| 3269s | possible they know that the ash from at |
| 3271s | the very start of the r has been removed |
| 3273s | swapped out for that new rework Sombra |
| 3275s | which means no hit scan it should be an |
| 3277s | absolute open season for the echo but it |
| 3280s | doesn't happen both of the supports are |
| 3282s | just so so close to both the Nano boost |
| 3285s | and the rally that by putting all of |
| 3287s | that threat onto the tank who just soaks |
| 3290s | up all of that damage and translates it |
| 3292s | into ultimate charge the team Spains |
| 3295s | back line suddenly they are gift wrapped |
| 3298s | the sustain tools that they needed to be |
| 3300s | able to keep that point anchored I mean |
| 3302s | so smart from the likes of Spain let's |
| 3304s | take a look at the highlights of the |
| 3306s | match or map number one in this first |
| 3308s | the two I mean obviously you got the |
| 3310s | captive Sun from Gala yeting it across |
| 3313s | the map into Ace I mean that's just the |
| 3315s | solo kill for this thing we're just |
| 3316s | running away you can't he's like look |
| 3317s | that he's like what do I do what do I do |
| 3319s | about that g that's not it though cuz |
| 3320s | then he catches a mid air because it's |
| 3324s | it's not just that captive sun damage |
| 3327s | that you have to worry about right it is |
| 3329s | the bird's eye view that thei is given |
| 3334s | as the alt continues see some fire there |
| 3337s | by the way Moxy in the cameras obviously |
| 3339s | from the lengths of Spain I mean it's a |
| 3340s | hype match up between these two teams |
| 3342s | obviously you know Thailand have a |
| 3344s | storied organization in their own side |
| 3347s | and also another jump up out of your |
| 3349s | seats I love that that's some good |
| 3350s | energy out of both teams for this |
| 3352s | matchup I mean that's truly I mean it's |
| 3355s | going to be a close one marxy between |
| 3357s | both of these teams at least on the next |
| 3358s | map there's a lot of energy for all of |
| 3361s | these players as you can see oh my |
| 3363s | goodness I love these player reactions |
| 3365s | so much they are so happy to be here |
| 3367s | like we've already talked about right |
| 3370s | some of these teams will not expected to |
| 3372s | be able to make it as far as they did |
| 3374s | and now that they are here they're out |
| 3376s | to prove not just to everyone watching |
| 3379s | but to themselves as well to their |
| 3381s | regions who are cheering them on behind |
| 3383s | the scenes that this is why OverWatch is |
| 3386s | such a beloved Esports all across the |
| 3389s | world Rialto will be our next map as |
| 3392s | chosen by Thailand but before we go to |
| 3394s | Rialto we have to go to a short break so |
| 3396s | guys don't go anywhere we'll be right |
| 3414s | back |
| 3418s | [Music] |
| 3432s | [Applause] |
| 3439s | let's |
| 3444s | go |
| 3453s | [Music] |
| 3474s | yeah |
| 3481s | [Music] |
| 3502s | 3 2 1 let's |
| 3504s | go |
| 3514s | [Music] |
| 3534s | oh |
| 3536s | [Music] |
| 3548s | [Music] |
| 3589s | welcome back everybody what a series |
| 3593s | what a game what a way to start off |
| 3594s | world World Cup yesterday was awesome |
| 3597s | today seemingly is going to be even |
| 3599s | better Moxy obviously between these two |
| 3602s | teams they're going to have a little bit |
| 3603s | of changes as well as I mean we saw the |
| 3606s | player cams earlier with all of the |
| 3608s | energy and all of the screaming from |
| 3610s | both teams I mean it's awesome to have a |
| 3612s | land back we're going to have bones come |
| 3613s | in po crazy dragons for the side of |
| 3616s | Spain a bit of a change up for them yeah |
| 3619s | and we're changing up the map as well |
| 3621s | team Thailand having lost that first |
| 3623s | control map are going to be taking |
| 3625s | taking us to their handpicked choice of |
| 3628s | Realto so this is going to be extremely |
| 3630s | fun to see both interactions between |
| 3632s | these two teams because there are so |
| 3634s | many different compositions that you can |
| 3636s | prioritize when you run into realta if |
| 3638s | you want to try and keep running that |
| 3639s | dive composition you absolutely can we |
| 3642s | have seen such a rise in Tracer value on |
| 3646s | the attacking side as they just push up |
| 3649s | all around that side area where the |
| 3652s | health pack is in gardens up into The |
| 3654s | High Ground on the bridge bridge where |
| 3655s | anas like to be able to sit back feeling |
| 3658s | a little bit safer but now that the |
| 3660s | tracers have find The flanks Not So safe |
| 3662s | anymore no no I mean it's it's hor it's |
| 3665s | horrific it's hard to deal with a lot of |
| 3667s | those flanks I mean but with the likes |
| 3669s | of Spain I mean they talked about it |
| 3671s | Emily mentioned it how they the team of |
| 3674s | Spain mentioned how they have a really |
| 3676s | talented backline and they do obviously |
| 3678s | with both gallet and Canal kind of |
| 3680s | boasting some of the best uh you know |
| 3683s | back lines in the entire of World Cup |
| 3686s | and they kind of proved it on that last |
| 3687s | map so Moxy you know if you're that |
| 3689s | flanking Tracer would you think you'd be |
| 3691s | a little scared of the likes of Spain in |
| 3693s | their support Duo absolutely I mean if |
| 3696s | Galler is on that |
| 3698s | arari we we've already seen he does not |
| 3701s | miss those shots you have to be on |
| 3704s | absolute fire if you want to be able to |
| 3707s | catch that back line when they're a |
| 3709s | little bit vulnerable and it's something |
| 3711s | that team Spain have been able to do to |
| 3713s | such a devasta impact because what they |
| 3716s | basically do is they know that the arari |
| 3718s | can keep herself safe so it allows he to |
| 3721s | be a lot more aggressive in terms of how |
| 3723s | long he's staying in those forward |
| 3725s | positions baiting out a lot of that |
| 3727s | Focus Fire coming through from Team |
| 3729s | Thailand which gives the DPS from Team |
| 3731s | Spain such a huge advantage in the |
| 3734s | amount of attention that isn't directed |
| 3737s | towards them and a DPS that isn't being |
| 3739s | looked at there's a DPS that's going to |
| 3741s | be coming up in the right side of the |
| 3743s | kill feed oh yeah I mean and there was a |
| 3745s | lot of that in the last one as well Punk |
| 3747s | and and crazy dragon as well but now |
| 3748s | bones coming in for a bit of a change up |
| 3751s | is this the first time we're seeing |
| 3753s | little bit of Ry or Jun of Queen Moxy |
| 3755s | potentially for them I mean please team |
| 3761s | no what what was he doing he was he was |
| 3764s | teasing the life Weaver oh jeez okay |
| 3767s | well the character's good right I mean |
| 3768s | has a ton of sustain but not enough |
| 3770s | offensive cap no no the Weaver the |
| 3772s | Weaver has left the building it has been |
| 3774s | replaced by Bria no surprises at the |
| 3777s | composition that team Talent have |
| 3778s | decided to field by taking us to Rialto |
| 3781s | they do set into motion all of these |
| 3784s | really long angles nice clear line of |
| 3787s | sights but something like a Widowmaker |
| 3788s | to try and win those One V on and set up |
| 3791s | a crossfire as well the high Vision to |
| 3793s | be able to play around with Ace are you |
| 3795s | going to go for a grapple shot do you |
| 3797s | really want to reveal your hand that |
| 3799s | quickly yep he's going for it but |
| 3801s | doesn't see anyone yeah a bit too late G |
| 3805s | looking to take that duel actually with |
| 3807s | him sure if that he be able to one shot |
| 3809s | that from this distance hell meanwhile |
| 3812s | just getting some free push as Thailand |
| 3815s | allowing them to take this first amount |
| 3817s | of space but at this first corner I mean |
| 3820s | obviously they're going to leave tiat |
| 3822s | towards the objective to stop it look at |
| 3824s | gala though on the far flank acting like |
| 3826s | a DPS Ace as well sitting at the back of |
| 3830s | the map kind of just poking down the |
| 3832s | front line hi Vis is able to find Gala |
| 3834s | on the outside side he went off screen |
| 3836s | for a bit of a flank by himself and that |
| 3838s | results in his death so now Spain they |
| 3840s | four versus five Thailand you don't have |
| 3843s | the advantage yeah bones used that may |
| 3846s | not to block line of sight from either |
| 3848s | the echo or the Widow but to enable hell |
| 3850s | onto that High Ground to try and contest |
| 3852s | TI Wad and it left them exposed and now |
| 3856s | that Crossfire that we were talking |
| 3857s | about came fully into motion look at |
| 3859s | what p is playing as well he is |
| 3861s | absolutely Untouchable given the fact |
| 3863s | that sping by running both the May and |
| 3865s | the Bastion the May to be able to just |
| 3867s | block and set the arist up to try and |
| 3869s | find isolation and the Bastion to chunk |
| 3871s | through as much damage as possible they |
| 3873s | don't actually have any flank potential |
| 3875s | other than Gala on The alari ampliation |
| 3877s | Matrix used but eventually given up on T |
| 3880s | or k wat will go down so fast as high |
| 3883s | Visions in the copy able to melt Punk so |
| 3885s | finds his copyed counterpart and also on |
| 3888s | the gala audo also came through with the |
| 3890s | nanab Boost is able to find a lot of |
| 3892s | damage and Spain gets team White Ty will |
| 3895s | hold the G yeah there is absolutely |
| 3898s | nothing that Spain can do to be able to |
| 3900s | take space if tyland are able to just |
| 3903s | kite out all of the threat potentials |
| 3905s | that Spain have and one huge thing that |
| 3907s | they had to worry about was the Bastion |
| 3909s | set behind that amplification Matrix it |
| 3911s | is now been removed and we go back yet |
| 3914s | again to the crossfire setup oh if that |
| 3917s | was old Widowmaker canel would have been |
| 3918s | dead there so now Ty obviously sitting |
| 3920s | back Ace kind of playing support of fire |
| 3922s | for his team will also give them that |
| 3924s | infrared sights also a nade connected |
| 3927s | onto Spain Rally from Auto they want to |
| 3929s | go aggressive with it but they're walled |
| 3930s | off for now canel also used the morality |
| 3932s | field Punk now actually commits an |
| 3934s | artillery strike defensively but I mean |
| 3937s | he's already lost Canal hell comes |
| 3938s | through with the terror surge over the |
| 3940s | top DEA bomb to Zone him out for now but |
| 3942s | hell will get that Mega health pack stay |
| 3944s | relatively healthy the C though not |
| 3945s | pushing by the way so wall Spain is |
| 3947s | looking for this off angle fight the |
| 3949s | objective isn't even moving an inch |
| 3951s | forward Kwa also finds Gala who went |
| 3953s | aggressive I mean seems like this is has |
| 3954s | been a constant for Spain Gala getting |
| 3957s | picked out in that fight in particular |
| 3959s | High Visions as well will find Punk and |
| 3961s | I mean Spain they're just going to |
| 3962s | slowly get Whitted down to literally |
| 3965s | nothing here at the moment T will come |
| 3966s | back for this may H just getting |
| 3968s | staggered eventually so bones but bones |
| 3970s | has that double pocket there at least |
| 3972s | he'll live bit longer now H Vision even |
| 3974s | eventually finds him goblet trades back |
| 3976s | Ace H Vision wants more can will be able |
| 3978s | to find him so okay DPS supports at the |
| 3980s | moment for Spain they found two yeah |
| 3983s | High Vision getting a little bit too |
| 3985s | over eager to try and jump into that |
| 3987s | back line and find more stagger pick to |
| 3989s | fade out as much time bank from Team |
| 3991s | Spain as possible now means that team |
| 3993s | town do not have the DPS to pick but |
| 3995s | Spain on entrance to these fights and |
| 3998s | this is when team Spain decides to try |
| 3999s | and make their presence vation Matrix |
| 4002s | immortality field to make sure you can |
| 4004s | actually set up behind it but it's |
| 4006s | immediately burnt out by both the diva |
| 4008s | and the Bria and now it's just team |
| 4011s | Thailand who now have that Echo back |
| 4013s | into the fight they're just red through |
| 4015s | team Spain 17 seconds left Ace going for |
| 4017s | that one V one that was just a support |
| 4018s | versus support ultimate matchup I mean |
| 4021s | Baptist window really doing not a lot uh |
| 4023s | here at all Canal's going to swap over |
| 4025s | to that Anna because of it Nana a rally |
| 4027s | first by audo then Pauly dropped it with |
| 4029s | the Nana boost there's too much to deal |
| 4031s | with now we're going to overtime T to |
| 4032s | want touches that objective to make sure |
| 4035s | it's not moving any further into the Sky |
| 4038s | Hi vision goes gets that for the health |
| 4039s | pack as well stays alive Ace over the |
| 4040s | top sign with the full spa forces out |
| 4042s | the deflect now tries to find bones also |
| 4044s | an grenade onto him but can't connect |
| 4046s | with the pulse bomb meanwhile Punk gets |
| 4048s | slept on the outside after finding the |
| 4050s | Vita Ace will be able to find G of |
| 4052s | Primal Rage from H surley will be able |
| 4054s | to find this Anna off into the water and |
| 4056s | he does so but tiat also has found Canal |
| 4059s | so it's back and forth one to one high |
| 4061s | vision's out of the copy as well will |
| 4062s | fall back to the objective tiat lost the |
| 4064s | mech but drops the diva bomb it's just |
| 4067s | Punk now because Ace has been doing so |
| 4069s | much on Tracer though Punk able to find |
| 4071s | him in this last fight H vision's able |
| 4074s | to connect onto bones as well and nobody |
| 4077s | else can TCH too many members gone for |
| 4080s | the likes of Spain and Thailand looked |
| 4082s | amazing on that defensive hole yeah |
| 4084s | unfortunately for team Spain there were |
| 4086s | just no ultimates they're able to use |
| 4088s | H's bubble to block out the Fred of the |
| 4091s | self-destruct but because your Genji has |
| 4093s | just continued to be kept at Bay by team |
| 4096s | Thailand a doing such a good job of |
| 4098s | occupying bones' attention so the blade |
| 4100s | is not built up the Genji does not have |
| 4103s | the ultimate and team Spain even though |
| 4106s | they try and stag on to that point they |
| 4107s | have absolutely no ultimate to be able |
| 4109s | to Anchor their presence and Force Team |
| 4111s | Thailand into a full regroup I I mean |
| 4114s | you would think maybe for Spain you go |
| 4116s | back to the drawing boards a bit it |
| 4118s | could be also you know Thailand this is |
| 4120s | their map pick right Moxy I mean they've |
| 4122s | obviously practiced that strategy of |
| 4124s | just Auto go playay aggressive brigita I |
| 4127s | mean Auto was like a former DPS player |
| 4130s | right so I mean he's got that capability |
| 4132s | just to go ham on the Brigade right |
| 4134s | right yeah it wasn't just that it was |
| 4136s | also taking full advantage of this |
| 4137s | really open courtyard that we talked |
| 4139s | about right Spain they run a composition |
| 4142s | that relies on everyone sort of rolling |
| 4144s | as one ball all together there's no one |
| 4147s | who's really available to go look for |
| 4149s | those flanks which means that the |
| 4151s | crossfire is never being pressured the |
| 4154s | way that you want to deal with the |
| 4155s | crossfire you always have to try and |
| 4157s | keep attention on the two players |
| 4159s | involved in the crossfire rather than |
| 4161s | focusing your attention solely on the |
| 4163s | one because it means that the other DPS |
| 4165s | is then getting that free field that we |
| 4167s | talked about at the opening of this map |
| 4170s | Spain however deciding to stick with the |
| 4172s | exact same composition it is definitely |
| 4174s | better on the defense I would say given |
| 4176s | the fact that orisa is such a good |
| 4178s | anchor to be able to hold this position |
| 4180s | for as long as possible where it's going |
| 4182s | to get a little bit dicey as if they |
| 4183s | lose control of the first Corner because |
| 4185s | the map widens out and the M loses so |
| 4187s | much value as a result this is actually |
| 4190s | a very aggressive hold so far for Spain |
| 4192s | over the top but P are avoiding at the |
| 4195s | moment they're getting cart pushed |
| 4196s | though because they're ignoring them |
| 4198s | hully will go down it looked like their |
| 4200s | backman actually run ran up behind the |
| 4202s | side of Spain resulting in that Anna |
| 4204s | going down early so not a lot of heals |
| 4206s | now for tylon Ty actually swap over to |
| 4208s | the Baptist TI will also lose that Mech |
| 4211s | right after a support respawn theu also |
| 4214s | goes down tiat will jump into the water |
| 4217s | too so so far Spain have got him in it |
| 4219s | off the clock yeah but team tyon doing a |
| 4222s | very good job of forcing Spain into |
| 4224s | going for that drop down contesting the |
| 4226s | point and that payload is a lot closer |
| 4229s | to the full part of Courtyard where the |
| 4231s | May is going to lose the value because |
| 4233s | it's not immediately going to section |
| 4235s | off the entirety of alley yeah looks |
| 4237s | like they're a bit split at the moment H |
| 4239s | over the top looking for that pressure I |
| 4241s | mean he can constantly do it here cuz |
| 4243s | even if he get shot up eventually he'll |
| 4245s | be able to drop down like he is at the |
| 4247s | moment 2 minutes and 30 seconds left on |
| 4250s | the clock I going for a bit of a flank |
| 4252s | was walled off temporarily punk goes so |
| 4254s | oh low has the double pocket immortality |
| 4256s | burn too by high Vision amazing |
| 4259s | placement of the grenades and then Ace |
| 4260s | is there with that shot with the rail |
| 4262s | gun charge bti window by Canal to try to |
| 4265s | equalize it but no kills just yet |
| 4267s | Thailand avoiding that window for now |
| 4269s | they actually just take a very passive |
| 4272s | engagement here Callie comes back with |
| 4274s | his own window highish goes through it |
| 4276s | throws the grenades onto bones and he |
| 4278s | will go down copy onto High Visions 2 |
| 4281s | able to find H off of that want to go |
| 4284s | for the fast wi GA found one he's found |
| 4286s | two on a tatt and is still staying over |
| 4288s | the top side overclock won't be able to |
| 4290s | do much against the rally it's just too |
| 4291s | big of a shield too much health Ace |
| 4294s | trying to go for him but it might cost |
| 4296s | him his life eventually does have some |
| 4297s | help from high Visions there the rest of |
| 4300s | Thailand drop towards that payload don't |
| 4301s | want to push it they're just going to go |
| 4302s | for a soft regroup here and try to find |
| 4304s | these supports who have kind of just |
| 4305s | anchored over the top for feels like |
| 4307s | forever yeah punk trying to buy Spain |
| 4310s | the times to be able to regroup around |
| 4312s | this High ground with that artillery |
| 4313s | strike coming from from the Bastion and |
| 4315s | is going to be able to do exactly that |
| 4317s | the supports with G rally have been able |
| 4319s | to live through the bre but H does not |
| 4322s | live through that bones has to drop a |
| 4324s | defensive blizzard will be able to |
| 4326s | freeze up the diva but the self-destruct |
| 4328s | means that tto's immediately going to be |
| 4329s | able to get back into that Mech and team |
| 4331s | Thailand have a tank Spain don't they |
| 4333s | have to give up the space and play for a |
| 4336s | regroup that was a nice blizzard to get |
| 4338s | it through the defensive Matrix at least |
| 4339s | T doesn't have the menion mar but SP |
| 4342s | waiting for Punk to come back from Spawn |
| 4343s | he swapped over to so 76 help will go |
| 4345s | aggressive for the terror surge do |
| 4346s | anybody even caught it doesn't look like |
| 4347s | it so he's just going to cancel it also |
| 4349s | B pce Window used by Canal so two huge |
| 4352s | ultimates and get the kill eventually |
| 4354s | Punk will able to find a poodle help |
| 4356s | also on to Paulie High vision went for |
| 4358s | that flank but eventually Punk will run |
| 4359s | him down and Spain will hold 44 seconds |
| 4363s | left in the clock High Vision tried to |
| 4365s | go for the haulk drop down onto those |
| 4369s | supports didn't quite work out like you |
| 4371s | said he got caught by Punk who swapped |
| 4373s | onto that Soldier and this is great for |
| 4375s | Spain because with the Soldier's better |
| 4377s | Mobility you can get back into the fight |
| 4379s | super quickly but you now have a hit |
| 4380s | scan to keep the echo in check Health |
| 4383s | back on that High Ground is going to be |
| 4385s | such a stall War flanker to stop anyone |
| 4389s | pushing up onto this hrant as you can |
| 4390s | see tto wats the boosters immediately |
| 4393s | just shoved Away by the javelin spin as |
| 4395s | team Tal's going to invest the |
| 4396s | amplification Matrix and Gala uses the |
| 4399s | rally aggressively to push him out of |
| 4400s | the area of it yeah that's terrific I |
| 4402s | mean Ace with the overclock men to Vault |
| 4404s | to help to the rally too strong at the |
| 4407s | moment Spain against you know having |
| 4410s | such a horrible attacking side now on |
| 4412s | the defensive angle looks a ton better |
| 4415s | and in fact get the two victory over |
| 4418s | Thailand yeah you definitely didn't |
| 4420s | expect that to happen when you look at |
| 4423s | how that first round of Rialto played |
| 4426s | out team Thailand looked like they had |
| 4428s | it unlock this is very obviously a map |
| 4430s | that they feel incredibly confident on |
| 4432s | that they've been rehearsing that they |
| 4433s | they've been able to just choreograph |
| 4436s | this dive composition unfortunately team |
| 4438s | Spain have also choreographed a counter |
| 4441s | to that dive and a lot of it relies on |
| 4443s | just being able to Anchor in those |
| 4445s | positions I said that the Bastian and |
| 4447s | Arisa would find a lot more value when |
| 4450s | they anchoring space as opposed to |
| 4452s | trying to monopolize it away from a team |
| 4456s | already in control of it and that's |
| 4458s | exactly what happened every single time |
| 4461s | team Thailand tried to push into team |
| 4462s | Spain they had so many different |
| 4464s | abilities they were just able to hold on |
| 4467s | to that ground forcing team Thailand |
| 4469s | into just absolutely accelerating |
| 4472s | through their entire ultimate economy to |
| 4474s | try and buy that space back and |
| 4476s | something like a rally or even just hell |
| 4478s | of going for a fortify with the javelin |
| 4480s | spin me that all of those threats that |
| 4482s | the ultimate should provide immediately |
| 4484s | went up in smoke really smart stuff |
| 4486s | coming through from Team Spain this this |
| 4488s | is why they're one of these teams that |
| 4489s | you do not want to sleep on no I mean |
| 4492s | they look so good as you mentioned now |
| 4494s | obviously looking forward into this |
| 4496s | group we'll have to see if they have a |
| 4497s | chance at some of the other opponents |
| 4499s | but in that match up with Ty he was |
| 4501s | super close Mo you can't really call it |
| 4503s | Thailand either but we'll have to wrap |
| 4504s | it up or we'll have to see what the desk |
| 4506s | has to say about it in just a second |
| 4508s | desk what you think about that game |
| 4510s | Spain versus |
| 4512s | Thailand thank you so much we're back |
| 4515s | here uh to break down all the action we |
| 4518s | just got to witness between Spain and |
| 4520s | Thailand it was a close match it was an |
| 4522s | Explosive Performance and a great first |
| 4524s | look at Spain I personally never doubt |
| 4526s | it I don't know about you Danny and |
| 4528s | Johnny prediction game not not so good |
| 4532s | yeah my my prediction game hasn't been |
| 4534s | going that well ever since yesterday I |
| 4536s | mean also we just having fun with it |
| 4538s | like we were prediced with our hearts |
| 4540s | for this one yeah having fun with this |
| 4542s | one right it's not serious you know of |
| 4544s | course why do you sound so K around |
| 4547s | kidding around hey you know you win some |
| 4549s | I got Japan yesterday I took an L today |
| 4552s | with Thailand you know well you know who |
| 4554s | took the W Spain did and in what |
| 4557s | wonderful fashion there are so many |
| 4560s | players to highlight here so many things |
| 4562s | to point out so let's dive straight into |
| 4564s | the highlights and talk about how Spain |
| 4566s | got it done I mean this was a crucial |
| 4570s | win now for Spain uh like I mentioned |
| 4572s | going into the match of course that when |
| 4574s | you're in this group with uh the team |
| 4575s | from China of course they're going to be |
| 4577s | the favorite hands down to get the first |
| 4578s | seed so it really was a match up between |
| 4580s | two teams that are buying for that |
| 4581s | second spot and make it to the playoff |
| 4583s | at blon later this week I think that czy |
| 4587s | dragon has some really good performances |
| 4588s | here on the Tracer you know getting to |
| 4590s | the backline it was something we talked |
| 4591s | about what while we're watching the game |
| 4592s | just like wow p is struggling you know a |
| 4595s | bit for the Thailand here and nuto on |
| 4597s | the Bri as well not really making sure |
| 4599s | that his Flex support stays alive right |
| 4601s | so a bit of a struggle but it really |
| 4603s | felt like the dive and the the early |
| 4605s | picks in these fights came through from |
| 4607s | from Spain so that's a great first |
| 4609s | showing that you can play a lot of |
| 4610s | different you can play Dive compositions |
| 4612s | but you can also put hell on on the Ora |
| 4614s | uh like box also were you know try to |
| 4617s | point out several times throughout the |
| 4618s | series yeah I think I think we were |
| 4621s | highlighting H uh because he's a big |
| 4623s | name and and and it really showed like |
| 4625s | how great of a player he is right I mean |
| 4627s | not only is he Winston but his switched |
| 4629s | to the orisa like it did so much for uh |
| 4631s | Team Spain and I think yeah it was very |
| 4634s | impressive and I just loved these guys |
| 4636s | just taunting Thailand like the ban |
| 4640s | between these two was just so good it |
| 4643s | was so good it was so fun to |
| 4646s | watch you know have fun with this both |
| 4649s | teams obviously were having a great old |
| 4651s | time on the server Spain took the W |
| 4653s | Thailand Unfortunately today getting a |
| 4655s | loss that puts them at 1 as they did |
| 4658s | have a great first match yesterday |
| 4661s | against Hong Kong so you know not all |
| 4664s | hope is lost and it was a close match |
| 4668s | their initial hold looked really really |
| 4669s | good there on Rialto Unfortunately they |
| 4671s | got Fuller held uh so that's unlucky I |
| 4674s | think they have a lot of footage though |
| 4677s | to uh to review and a lot of takeaways |
| 4680s | from this particular match against Spain |
| 4682s | so I am looking forward to seeing them |
| 4683s | coming out strong in their next match |
| 4686s | and we of course will be getting ready |
| 4688s | for our second match of the day that one |
| 4691s | will be fought out between the Kingdom |
| 4693s | of Saudi Arabia and Japan so stick |
| 4695s | around for this one we're heading into a |
| 4697s | quick break and after that we're going |
| 4698s | to break down all the |
| 4702s | action |

| 4992s | keeping the Panic the absolute I heard |
| 4995s | every second of it so I don't know |
| 4996s | actually happened but I thoroughly |
| 4999s | enjoyed it yeah speakr of explosive uh |
| 5001s | situations and here are our current |
| 5005s | groups and the standings after all the |
| 5008s | games we already got to play and quite |
| 5010s | frankly I mean we had I would say pretty |
| 5013s | clear favorites for most of the groups |
| 5015s | uh as in which top two teams Advan |
| 5018s | Johnny has anything changed for you |
| 5020s | after one day of matches yeah I mean I I |
| 5023s | I don't know about you I I I'd say top |
| 5025s | one like I'm convinced about top one |
| 5027s | then as I say that I think about Group B |
| 5029s | and how I thought Canada would get |
| 5031s | through as first but uh I mean yeah you |
| 5034s | you'd probably have South Korea USA and |
| 5037s | the team from China as your favorites |
| 5038s | but apart from that like really it's |
| 5040s | wide open I don't know who's going to |
| 5042s | get second in all these groups and who's |
| 5044s | going to make it through the playoffs so |
| 5046s | a really fun rest of the group stage we |
| 5048s | have in front of us these next three |
| 5049s | days with lots of matches that could go |
| 5051s | either way |
| 5053s | true who's the who's the most unlikely |
| 5056s | yet the one you want to advance the most |
| 5059s | Danny unlikely the most unlikely but |
| 5062s | like with your heart like you need them |
| 5065s | to win listen no I think okay I'm going |
| 5067s | to say me I don't think they're I don't |
| 5069s | think they're unlikely I think they have |
| 5070s | a chance but I mean they did get the |
| 5072s | loss yesterday but I am rooting for |
| 5074s | Mexico you know VI Mexico vamos Mexico |
| 5077s | I'm still rooting for you guys that's it |
| 5080s | never give up can I say um Group B |
| 5082s | Brazil if Brazil makes it through over |
| 5085s | Canada and like Australia that would be |
| 5088s | like one of the biggest world cup upsets |
| 5090s | we've had in at least 4 years years so |
| 5094s | uh that that would be really funny I |
| 5095s | love that there are so many teams which |
| 5097s | previously in or World Cups they have |
| 5100s | not actually ever been able to get past |
| 5102s | qualifiers past preliminaries so for |
| 5105s | some of them like anything like coming |
| 5109s | out of the group stage would already be |
| 5111s | the best result they could have possibly |
| 5113s | had and that makes it all the more |
| 5115s | exciting you can't help but root for all |
| 5118s | of those teams now let's talk about two |
| 5121s | more teams we get to see to today Japan |
| 5123s | we've already seen but their opponents |
| 5125s | today this is going to be our first look |
| 5128s | but first let's chat about team Japan |
| 5131s | lots of standout performances across the |
| 5133s | board from this very team we expected |
| 5135s | the cohesion and they showed up yeah |
| 5137s | that that cohesion their team Synergy |
| 5139s | really came in clutch for them and you |
| 5142s | know not a lot of people expected them |
| 5143s | to be friends but I mean they did it you |
| 5146s | know it was two Z for Japan yesterday |
| 5148s | against France and they got you know I |
| 5150s | think there were a lot of players that |
| 5152s | Sur surprised a lot of us like people |
| 5154s | like KSG on that doomfist Nico as well |
| 5157s | was a was a standout player yesterday |
| 5159s | and of course I'm going to keep doing it |
| 5161s | Q loud baby I'm loud for |
| 5164s | cloud L for cloud I'm loud for cloud |
| 5167s | baby you know it's so you know they got |
| 5170s | they got a lot of things going for them |
| 5172s | and on top of that you know you can see |
| 5173s | that they're really hungry for this and |
| 5175s | they're you know they're eager to win |
| 5177s | yeah but so is their opponent opponent |
| 5180s | team I mean we know most of these |
| 5181s | players from Twisted mind and joining |
| 5183s | them is no other than Surman jat who has |
| 5185s | had a very successful year on Toronto |
| 5187s | defined in the OverWatch League Johnny |
| 5189s | what do you expect to see from this team |
| 5191s | well judging from the starting lineup |
| 5193s | and the fact that we don't see LDA in |
| 5194s | the starting lineup who you know usually |
| 5196s | specializes and uh plays uh some of the |
| 5199s | kind of like flying heroes I guess you |
| 5201s | can classify them as in this game but I |
| 5203s | think instead it's going to be about |
| 5205s | quartz right like we're seeing right now |
| 5207s | on the Widowmaker and some of these hit |
| 5208s | scan Heroes that is like really the |
| 5209s | pivotal player for this team obviously |
| 5211s | surma Jed as you said probably the most |
| 5213s | successful player on this team but that |
| 5216s | being said I mean it this team is |
| 5218s | essentially Twisted Minds from |
| 5220s | contenders Europe and they've been the |
| 5222s | best team in European contenders all |
| 5224s | year right so this is actually quite a |
| 5226s | Powerhouse with really skilled players |
| 5228s | um and I'm expecting a pretty good |
| 5229s | performance coming in here in their |
| 5231s | first match uh out of so many rest of |
| 5233s | this group stage and I don't know if I |
| 5235s | don't know if I remember correctly but I |
| 5237s | do feel like when Emily got some insight |
| 5240s | from Japan yesterday they did mention |
| 5242s | that they never been able to actually |
| 5243s | play against one of the European teams |
| 5245s | so while there is a lot of tape on the |
| 5248s | team from Saudi Arabia or rather on the |
| 5251s | uh Twisted Minds Ruster they've not had |
| 5253s | the firsthand experience of actually |
| 5255s | going up against them would make it very |
| 5257s | very interesting now we do have Emily |
| 5259s | once more for an inside scoop Emily what |
| 5262s | you got for |
| 5263s | us yes that's right Zoe they hadn't had |
| 5266s | a chance to scrim with any of the EU |
| 5268s | teams and um Believe It or Not team |
| 5271s | Japan has actually been nerfed by |
| 5274s | traveling um coming in from their win |
| 5278s | against France they're hoping to keep up |
| 5279s | their momentum and confidence and uh |
| 5283s | when I asked them if they felt like |
| 5284s | there were any challenges against KSA or |
| 5286s | USA they said no challenges per se but |
| 5289s | we believe we can win as we always do |
| 5292s | but the environment in the US is very |
| 5294s | different from Japan so there's still |
| 5296s | acclimating to travel and finally I |
| 5299s | asked what do you think is team Japan's |
| 5302s | greatest strength and they said our |
| 5304s | strength is that we have many fans in |
| 5306s | Japan even with the time difference |
| 5309s | between the US and Japan we get a lot of |
| 5311s | support from our fans and their support |
| 5314s | is our strength that's all I have for |
| 5316s | you guys back to the desk thank you so |
| 5319s | much love the wholesome answers there |
| 5321s | great Insight once again it's fantastic |
| 5323s | to have Emily getting us that inside |
| 5325s | scoop on team Japan and this is |
| 5327s | something we've discussed yesterday guys |
| 5329s | right like it's a big difference to play |
| 5331s | on land you're in a different |
| 5332s | environment the setup is different the |
| 5334s | food is different you're not sleeping in |
| 5336s | your own bed you know it's there is a |
| 5339s | lot of things which actually can affect |
| 5341s | your performance thus far it did not |
| 5344s | look like anything affected Japan |
| 5346s | however maybe day two it's going to look |
| 5349s | different if we're looking at |
| 5350s | predictions for this one I still have |
| 5352s | Japan winning this one I hope for a |
| 5355s | close match I'm very excited to see |
| 5357s | Steam uh Saudi Arabia uh taking the |
| 5359s | stage for the first time but I do think |
| 5361s | the w will go Japan's way what about you |
| 5364s | Danny yeah I think they had a very |
| 5366s | convincing Victory yesterday I also went |
| 5369s | uh with Japan uh I'm getting the victory |
| 5371s | today but I I do think it's going to be |
| 5372s | a close |
| 5373s | match I I can't believe I'm I I'm also |
| 5377s | uh predicting Japan to win this one I I |
| 5380s | I actually think like this is silly |
| 5381s | because Saudi Arabia should be the |
| 5383s | favorites like they're a really good |
| 5385s | team but Japan so much |
| 5389s | fun Japan to win it's so much fun that's |
| 5392s | that's what this is all about it's about |
| 5393s | having fun it is a competition of course |
| 5395s | but we're going to have so much fun |
| 5397s | along the way so we are getting ready |
| 5400s | for this next match first we're heading |
| 5402s | into a very quick break then afterwards |
| 5404s | Moxy and Dustin will bring you all the |
| 5421s | action |
| 5425s | [Music] |

| 5614s | welcome back everybody to the OverWatch |
| 5616s | World Cup 2023 my name is Dustin joined |
| 5619s | back by Moxy and we're here today with |
| 5621s | the second game of the day with Kingdom |
| 5623s | of Saudi Arabia versus the kingdom or |
| 5625s | not Kingdom of Japan just Japan playing |
| 5628s | in this incredibly close matchup |
| 5629s | according to our desk where they've all |
| 5632s | predicted for Japan when Kingdom of |
| 5635s | Saudi Arabia have been a team for like |
| 5637s | who knows how long and have been so good |
| 5640s | uh I mean what do you think Moxy coming |
| 5642s | into this game Ry down between these two |
| 5644s | teams what's going to happen I mean it |
| 5646s | is very much a contend this playoff |
| 5648s | isn't it we have the Kingdom of Saudi |
| 5651s | Arabia who as the desk have rightfully |
| 5653s | pointed out it's essentially twisted |
| 5656s | mindes and the last time that you and I |
| 5658s | were watching Twisted mindes we were |
| 5660s | casting the summer contend |
| 5662s | European finals where it was I think a |
| 5665s | free hour it was something like 2 hours |
| 5667s | and 59 minutes of a match a seven map |
| 5671s | series but swis Minds were able to |
| 5673s | defend their title and retain the |
| 5675s | championship of European contenders team |
| 5678s | Japan have also been playing in their |
| 5681s | region of contenders not as much success |
| 5683s | they came second in both the summer and |
| 5686s | fall Asia Pacific split in 2023 but this |
| 5690s | is a team that have been together for a |
| 5691s | very very very very long time under the |
| 5694s | umbrella of varl where a lot of their |
| 5696s | players joined in 2021 with the |
| 5699s | exception of Danny's absolute favorite |
| 5701s | cloud or as he calls it coud who joined |
| 5704s | in 2022 |
| 5706s | April you mentioned I mean Japan such a |
| 5709s | history lineup so same with the Kingdom |
| 5711s | of Saudi Arabia as you said Moxy I mean |
| 5713s | so with this match up in particular |
| 5715s | compared to maybe other World Cup games |
| 5718s | I would say there there is a little bit |
| 5719s | more history here at least in their own |
| 5721s | specific region and that's why I mean we |
| 5723s | talked about this off broadcast Moxy meu |
| 5725s | it's just awesome to have World Cup back |
| 5727s | to be back at a lande again where |
| 5728s | everybody's here you saw the energy in |
| 5730s | the last game with Thailand both players |
| 5732s | kind of just shouting each other getting |
| 5734s | excited so it's great to have these two |
| 5737s | teams playing today that are storied uh |
| 5740s | players like together they've they've |
| 5741s | continued to play on other teams |
| 5743s | together but also the fact that they're |
| 5744s | at Lan to have that energy together is |
| 5746s | exciting yeah very interesting actually |
| 5749s | that Saudi Arabia have decided to uh |
| 5752s | take out labda for this control map it |
| 5754s | is Busan and Busan does have two outside |
| 5757s | Maps downtown and Sanctuary where things |
| 5759s | like the far and the echo find a lot of |
| 5761s | value but it looks like they want to |
| 5763s | field both U and quartz and we know from |
| 5765s | firstand experience how devastating ub's |
| 5768s | may can be and quartz his hit scan Japan |
| 5770s | is going to have a real tough task ahead |
| 5773s | of them trying to shut KSA Sigma down |
| 5775s | yeah Nico was phenomenal yesterday not |
| 5777s | to confus him with Nico on France so you |
| 5779s | know it's pretty interesting that they |
| 5780s | play both Nik yesterday ni will come |
| 5783s | through with that tank transformation |
| 5785s | however immediately KSA will shut him |
| 5787s | down off of an aggressive push from |
| 5790s | Saudi Arabia just allowing KSA to get |
| 5792s | those 3ks now a 4K I mean obviously KSA |
| 5795s | a sigma main himself just showing off as |
| 5798s | K or as the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia |
| 5800s | claim the objective first yeah Kingdom |
| 5802s | of Saudi Arabia have the Lucio Haku does |
| 5805s | have that speed Bo Advantage for the |
| 5807s | second that team Japan had actually |
| 5808s | invested that immortality field s get to |
| 5811s | go so much aggressively forward and |
| 5813s | really put into motion you be doing so |
| 5816s | much damage with the IND for MC Blaster |
| 5817s | and the buff of 100 now we're going to |
| 5819s | see a dive from the echo Comfort cooki |
| 5821s | has been able to infiltrate into the |
| 5822s | back line but there it is again U's |
| 5824s | primary absolutely shreds the help yeah |
| 5825s | and obviously sa the Sai araban team |
| 5828s | just coming back for that peel yub goes |
| 5830s | aggressive with his with the rest of his |
| 5831s | team but I mean Japan shut out Yuki had |
| 5833s | that flank like you said Moxy but it was |
| 5835s | it was snuffed down and Kingdom of Saudi |
| 5838s | Arabia are literally just going to do |
| 5839s | the same thing again and again and again |
| 5841s | they have a choold they have the Lucio |
| 5843s | they can speed boost UB in 90% of the |
| 5846s | way to a blizzard team Japan are yet to |
| 5848s | come up to a single ultimate granted |
| 5851s | when they come into something like |
| 5852s | amplification Matrix Kingdom of Saudi |
| 5854s | Arabia are going to be kited into trying |
| 5856s | to disengage it but with the loo that's |
| 5858s | going to be so much more easier in |
| 5860s | comparison to team Japan artillery |
| 5861s | strike from cour Japan runs and hides |
| 5864s | from it for now but they could |
| 5866s | potentially lose somebody immortality |
| 5867s | field used at the very least that's a |
| 5869s | cool down out KSA dolin that gratic |
| 5871s | wants to get it before immortality cool |
| 5873s | down is available and could very well do |
| 5876s | so but they're just going to back up for |
| 5878s | now actually they know the rotate is |
| 5880s | coming out from Japan potentially but |
| 5881s | Japan fakes it out they come back |
| 5882s | through with the an Matrix the fzz in |
| 5884s | fact here no immortality bu to save them |
| 5887s | and everybody and Japan is going to head |
| 5889s | right back to the spawn door a wasted |
| 5890s | rally in this fight in particular Nico |
| 5893s | just stagger killed in basically last |
| 5895s | fight now for Japan U is just an |
| 5898s | absolute stand out he reads the team ja |
| 5901s | kind of Faking out so that they can come |
| 5903s | back in with the amplification Matrix |
| 5905s | and catch onto Kingdom of Saudi Arabia |
| 5907s | if they going to try and punch hold that |
| 5909s | other the choke he blizzards and then |
| 5911s | walls the amplification Matrix so anyone |
| 5913s | from Team Japan who' managed to |
| 5914s | disengage the blizzard doesn't get to |
| 5916s | use the amplification Matrix now we're |
| 5917s | in final fight territory team Japan have |
| 5920s | to try and use this Bastion artillery |
| 5921s | strike to be able to clear the space but |
| 5923s | if the bastion's in Ultimate Form he's |
| 5925s | not pressure in Kingdom of Saudi Arabia |
| 5927s | on catwalk with The High Ground hold oh |
| 5930s | no kill there actually through the |
| 5931s | accreate oh nobody even touched the |
| 5933s | point oh jeez Saudi Arabia 100 to0 over |
| 5937s | Japan on round number one yeah it it's |
| 5940s | so unfortunate like I said when the |
| 5942s | Bastion is in the AL you don't get to |
| 5945s | move so as a result the basan is not |
| 5948s | going to be able to put out that insane |
| 5950s | amount of pressure that's keeping |
| 5952s | Kingdom of Saudi Arabia in check the |
| 5954s | second that yui he is that Al line he |
| 5957s | knows that he has an absolute free field |
| 5960s | to be able to to farm as we head into |
| 5963s | Sanctuary however the map does open up |
| 5965s | significantly more so the May is going |
| 5968s | to lose a lot of that value being able |
| 5970s | to isolate some of those chokes but it |
| 5972s | looks like team Japan aren't actually |
| 5974s | going to stick with the echo they've |
| 5975s | decided that they're going to try and |
| 5977s | mirror with the slight cavat of cloud |
| 5980s | coming out on that arari to try to out |
| 5983s | damage Kingdom of Saudi Arabia's |
| 5986s | backline see what works out for them |
| 5987s | obviously Saudi Arabia looking really |
| 5988s | good thus far at least on Mega base |
| 5991s | could be be different in this map in |
| 5993s | particular they actually go all the way |
| 5995s | around understanding they have that |
| 5996s | speed Advantage we'll see if they want |
| 5997s | to take advantage of it Japan mean while |
| 5999s | have Cloud on the flank we've seen this |
| 6001s | out of pretty much every lari player so |
| 6002s | far always taking that off angle |
| 6005s | dropping their pylon where it could heal |
| 6006s | everybody constantly making sure back |
| 6009s | line is harassed ports goes down early |
| 6011s | to Cle but also KSA is able to find KSG |
| 6015s | again also the main player of Japan |
| 6016s | Define two Serge goes down also on the U |
| 6019s | will find his counterar KSA comes |
| 6021s | through to find him with the rock but is |
| 6023s | met with the rest of UK's team Japan |
| 6027s | amazing first fight for them they're |
| 6029s | going to get that point first KSG by the |
| 6031s | way is coming back on the doomfist this |
| 6033s | is something that we saw yesterday |
| 6034s | against Team France team Japan have used |
| 6036s | the doomfist to absolutely disrupt these |
| 6040s | Sigma compositions which requires so |
| 6042s | much order and coordination everyone |
| 6044s | playing behind the sigma so that you're |
| 6047s | safe behind the shield behind that grass |
| 6049s | and you have a to be able to stop any |
| 6050s | potential Dives coming through and team |
| 6052s | Japan now have this disruption let make |
| 6054s | sure the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia don't |
| 6056s | get to set the main place and what a |
| 6057s | fast blizzard there from Japan too able |
| 6060s | to get Quartz with the damage of it and |
| 6062s | the followup although it does cost Yuki |
| 6065s | his life thought Arabia regrouping on |
| 6068s | the inside angle just looking to sustain |
| 6069s | maybe force Japan to make a mistake here |
| 6072s | KSG understanding that he's a bit caught |
| 6074s | out will back up for now now Sai trying |
| 6076s | to move towards that point building |
| 6077s | towards their own ultimates will drop a |
| 6079s | blizzard will it hit anybody probably |
| 6081s | stuck in it but he goes into the sky |
| 6083s | with a captive Sun U shoots him out the |
| 6084s | air but it's after Cloud already shot |
| 6087s | his shot U did trade back F Cloud but |
| 6090s | the rest of Japan are still here on the |
| 6092s | objective and the Saudis are wiped yet |
| 6093s | again as Japan crosses the 50% margin it |
| 6096s | did cost both support ultimates but like |
| 6098s | you said Team Japan were able to retain |
| 6101s | control of this point and yet again |
| 6103s | they're going to try and disrupt Kingdom |
| 6105s | of Saudi Arabia's approach Nico just |
| 6108s | looking to try to charge up that Al fire |
| 6110s | on the rail gun on that soan as well as |
| 6112s | build up into that overclock to be able |
| 6115s | to match wi with ports but hu has the |
| 6117s | sound barrier Kingdom of Saudi Arabia |
| 6119s | can literally just get as aggressive as |
| 6120s | they want do K go solo on the point |
| 6123s | overclock over the backside beat drop |
| 6124s | just a the of time from Haku and |
| 6126s | eventually Nik melts down through U but |
| 6129s | he traded back from courts so Jordan |
| 6131s | still up for the likes of Saudi Arabia |
| 6133s | KY goes so low on the backside able to |
| 6135s | get his ultimate off just before he dies |
| 6137s | also waiting to land on the Baptist able |
| 6140s | to get the followup damage |
| 6141s | on the back side Jaan looking awesome in |
| 6143s | this fight until Court comes back with |
| 6146s | the overclock that's two for him can he |
| 6148s | find any more may out of ice block does |
| 6150s | have one shot left it's only a body shot |
| 6152s | into the regenerative burst as well |
| 6154s | Japan still have that point overtime |
| 6156s | taking down there is a sigma on the |
| 6158s | point his name is KSA it's going to be |
| 6160s | hard to take him out without your own |
| 6162s | tank player on Japan's side so they give |
| 6165s | up the objective the Saudi Arabians |
| 6167s | capture it back yeah it was just too |
| 6169s | many off angles for team Japan to be |
| 6171s | able to try and hold on to but the fact |
| 6173s | that they're able to force courts into |
| 6175s | throwing in the overclock is absolutely |
| 6178s | huge because team Japan are in final |
| 6179s | fight territory Kingdom of Saudi Arabia |
| 6182s | have absolutely no ultimate to last them |
| 6185s | through this next fight if they get |
| 6186s | caught out by the blizzard that Ki is |
| 6188s | trying to set up on the flank around |
| 6190s | drum this mind is done and we go to |
| 6193s | downtown you with that interesting swap |
| 6195s | to Soldier give the pans out without the |
| 6197s | May it is a more open map I suppose ant |
| 6200s | major is committed by K goes down |
| 6202s | through it in fact captive Sun Now by |
| 6204s | coud trying to equalize it they're able |
| 6206s | to get forarts with some nice maze shots |
| 6208s | fromy and oh my God goodbye see you guys |
| 6212s | back at spawn Japan have brought it back |
| 6216s | and with this final kill on the surma |
| 6217s | Jed they bring us to round number three |
| 6220s | yeah the soldier pick wasn't really |
| 6224s | voluntary unfortunately like you're not |
| 6227s | doing it to try and counter something |
| 6228s | specifically you pick the soldier |
| 6230s | because cuz he has the passive where you |
| 6232s | know you can run faster and regroup |
| 6235s | faster that is the reason why we saw |
| 6238s | Ubie off of the May onto the soldier it |
| 6241s | was purely for Kingdom of Saudi Arabia |
| 6243s | to be able to regroup as quickly as |
| 6245s | possible because they knew they didn't |
| 6246s | have ultimat they knew that team Japan |
| 6248s | had a lead in terms of that point |
| 6250s | percentage as well they needed to be |
| 6251s | able to regroup and pickart a player |
| 6253s | from Team Japan on the approach they can |
| 6256s | not just keep themselves ahead in terms |
| 6257s | of that point percentage but also buy |
| 6260s | themselves the time to be to build up |
| 6261s | those ultimates that did not happen now |
| 6264s | yet again we are going to see U on that |
| 6266s | may quartz on the Bas KSG decides to go |
| 6270s | out on the sigma cookie however hanging |
| 6272s | back wanting to get a read on the |
| 6273s | composition they're running into opts |
| 6275s | for the echo to try and dive into the |
| 6277s | back line but there's nothing really to |
| 6280s | buy himself the distraction to be able |
| 6282s | to find that attention especially since |
| 6284s | your sigas W off and that's lamp already |
| 6287s | but gets P MOX you talked about it with |
| 6289s | me they just use their Sigma as a bait |
| 6291s | there KSG they eventually have niik on |
| 6294s | the flank just getting all of those |
| 6296s | kills because so much so many of the |
| 6298s | eyes of Saudi Arabia just looking away |
| 6300s | from him teret does find q but can they |
| 6304s | find anything more U on the inside is |
| 6305s | eventually be tracked out by n who has |
| 6307s | been phenomenal quartz in the main side |
| 6309s | does kill him but Japan already have |
| 6310s | that point yeah this like you said it's |
| 6313s | exactly the thing that team Japan did |
| 6315s | against Team France yesterday on Samoa |
| 6317s | at downtown funly enough we're also on |
| 6320s | downtown |
| 6321s | ofan and they're using the exact same |
| 6324s | strategy they leave the sigma out they |
| 6326s | know that he's going to be safe with the |
| 6327s | morality field even if he gets W away |
| 6329s | and it provides both the Echo and the |
| 6331s | bashing control of The High Ground to |
| 6333s | jump on to a player of Kingdom of Saudi |
| 6335s | Arabia unnoticed now however the gig is |
| 6338s | up King of Saudi Arabia know to expect |
| 6341s | the bait they don't pull for it they |
| 6343s | wait for team Japan's DPS players to try |
| 6345s | to pressure and that's when they pce |
| 6348s | every every Bastion player just cracked |
| 6349s | now they come back capture that 33% and |
| 6352s | now Saudi Arabians are the ones that |
| 6353s | have to |
| 6354s | hold team Japan coming in pretty close |
| 6358s | to some of those ultimate courts also |
| 6360s | going to have that artillery strike but |
| 6361s | it's the blizzard that Kingdom of Saudi |
| 6364s | Arabia are going to be so happy to have |
| 6365s | because it monopolizes so much of that |
| 6368s | space wall off the main side where kg |
| 6371s | was coming through gets bashed well as |
| 6373s | he falls low toward the St with the rock |
| 6376s | to hit him meanwhile immortality field |
| 6378s | used from Japan so that no longer |
| 6381s | available artillery strike after that |
| 6383s | runs out is trying to find some kills |
| 6385s | but only finds a little bit of damage |
| 6387s | thean walks in with the ant Matrix Ki |
| 6389s | melts KSA with the help of the rest of |
| 6392s | his team no longer the Saudi Arabia have |
| 6395s | a tank here suret able to find one the |
| 6396s | rally on the point ub did drop that |
| 6398s | blizzard however doesn't look like |
| 6399s | they're finding enough kills the sustain |
| 6402s | is far too much for Japan here as well |
| 6404s | they find the St kill on the U fli the |
| 6406s | point team Japan actually have to Rally |
| 6409s | as well towards the tail end of that |
| 6411s | fight and now they're not going to have |
| 6412s | any support ultimates Kingdom of Saudi |
| 6415s | Arabia they've got the flux to drop the |
| 6416s | health bars low enough but they have the |
| 6418s | sound bar to be able to capitalize on |
| 6420s | that momentum and push forward |
| 6422s | aggressively that all goes out the |
| 6423s | window however if you don't have control |
| 6425s | of The High Ground K is able to find |
| 6428s | pick I mean go for a fast engage with |
| 6430s | this gri blocks waiting to beat as well |
| 6433s | off of it until KSG pops his own but |
| 6435s | they're not going to be able need to be |
| 6436s | dropped this case he just went down |
| 6438s | after sa just walked in no more for |
| 6441s | Japan now I mean they're just going to |
| 6442s | slowly Whittle way towards the point |
| 6444s | just look to stagger maybe find a kill |
| 6446s | kill on the outside looking for quartz |
| 6448s | maybe no he goes down so does Nico in |
| 6451s | the rest of Japan back to the spawn they |
| 6453s | go at |
| 6454s | 74% yeah Haku knew that he did not need |
| 6457s | to beat because mint had used the rally |
| 6460s | in the last fight there is no way for |
| 6461s | team Japan's toiles to rise and as a |
| 6464s | result he gets to hold on to it to be |
| 6465s | able to counter the flux coming through |
| 6468s | from KSG in the entrance of this next |
| 6470s | fight Min even going to go onto the |
| 6471s | mercy now try and pocket cookie on the |
| 6474s | echo so that they can find a pick |
| 6476s | without just ignoring any of the |
| 6478s | ultimate deficit between the two teams |
| 6480s | we've seen qus work his magic against |
| 6482s | Mercy players can he do it again today |
| 6485s | flux by KD be dro the counter from Haku |
| 6487s | they also have an ant Matrix to support |
| 6489s | them do they have the damage to find |
| 6491s | anybody Japan actually get us hide |
| 6493s | around this this is amazing team play |
| 6495s | for them to avoid both support ultimates |
| 6497s | quartz also still has that artillery |
| 6499s | strike available but will have the |
| 6501s | ultimate advantage in just a second 88% |
| 6504s | on the board Boop off the top from Haku |
| 6506s | artillery strike now comes back through |
| 6508s | cour be thought they would stuck back on |
| 6509s | The High Ground is going to slowly work |
| 6512s | those shrikes into the back of Japan |
| 6515s | Cofe comes through from Qi KD fall Sol |
| 6517s | low but he lives on the inside angle |
| 6518s | from some support but the blizzard here |
| 6520s | shuts him down for now quz is there with |
| 6522s | the fall up as well n's able to trade |
| 6524s | one but I don't know if anybody could |
| 6525s | even touch for Japan it looks like no |
| 6528s | Saudi Arabia will take map number one |
| 6531s | yeah team Japan tried the exact same |
| 6533s | strategy right the sigma drops down |
| 6535s | first forces out that immortality field |
| 6538s | from your side yes but he's also been |
| 6540s | isolated by the mayol the thing is for |
| 6542s | team Saudi Arabia they can afford to |
| 6545s | actually try to go for the sigma knowing |
| 6547s | that it's a bait play because they have |
| 6549s | the blizzard so even if they're going to |
| 6551s | start losing some of their players |
| 6553s | they're still going to be able to drop |
| 6554s | the blizzard and cut team Japan off from |
| 6556s | rotating onto point and even if they win |
| 6559s | the fight if they can't tap that point |
| 6561s | and keep it contested the map ends |
| 6563s | regardless it's great work from Saudi |
| 6566s | Arabia but the desk was probably right |
| 6568s | when this was going to be a close game |
| 6569s | where go back look at everything that |
| 6571s | happened in this map in particular I |
| 6574s | mean it was such a back and forth brawl |
| 6575s | besides Mecha base where obviously you |
| 6577s | know team Saudi Arabia had a really good |
| 6579s | game plan mhm I mean they had a really |
| 6582s | good composition to be able to hold on |
| 6583s | to those chokes yeah like that M just |
| 6586s | does so much work this captive son here |
| 6589s | is absolutely Ely devastating catching |
| 6592s | on to both of those players pushing them |
| 6594s | to hide behind the pillars they overlap |
| 6597s | as well in terms of those hit boxes so |
| 6599s | the captive Sun then passes on to |
| 6601s | another player and then detonates once |
| 6604s | an additional damage has been dealt like |
| 6606s | aari is so strong at being able to box |
| 6609s | those players into spaces they really |
| 6610s | don't want to be in and meanwhile quartz |
| 6612s | had some fantastic tracking there on |
| 6614s | Bastion on the third round and also sa |
| 6616s | the Saudi Arabian team put themselves in |
| 6618s | a great position team Japan however on |
| 6620s | the other side going to pick Route 66 |
| 6622s | maybe thinking that team Saudi Arabia |
| 6624s | will be a little bit lackluster on this |
| 6626s | map but we'll have to see after a short |
| 6628s | break for this map number two guys don't |
| 6629s | go anywhere we got a barn bur on our |
| 6649s | hands |
| 6651s | [Music] |
| 6666s | [Music] |
| 6725s | [Music] |
| 6736s | [Applause] |
| 6738s | [Music] |
| 6817s | [Music] |
| 6829s | n |
| 6830s | [Music] |
| 6840s | welcome back everybody we have a close |
| 6842s | series between team Japan and team Saudi |
| 6845s | Arabia in which Saudi Arabia obviously |
| 6847s | just won map number one you know in a |
| 6850s | pretty decisive Fashion on Mecha base |
| 6852s | but the other two rounds definitely were |
| 6853s | not that close I think the desk was |
| 6855s | right to believe in Japan but obviously |
| 6858s | you know team Saudi Arabia are in it to |
| 6860s | win it today Moxy and uh you know |
| 6862s | obviously both as you can see just on |
| 6864s | the screen some of the players are kind |
| 6866s | of swapping in and out we've got some |
| 6868s | subs kind of coming through for both |
| 6870s | teams in fact for the next map route 66 |
| 6873s | team Saudi Arabia first obviously are |
| 6875s | going to sub out Haku of all people for |
| 6877s | labda which is surprising considering |
| 6880s | labda is a fantastic phah player maybe |
| 6882s | not known for his support as much but |
| 6884s | maybe today I'll whip out something neat |
| 6887s | I don't know box what do you think about |
| 6888s | the lab do support pick |
| 6890s | I mean we've we've what we've seen the |
| 6893s | WAP tast for Del Moon we've seen the |
| 6896s | bone back for Anna what what do we going |
| 6898s | to call lab I mean we have to wait and |
| 6900s | see what support hero he's going to be |
| 6902s | playing but Kingdom of Saudi Arabia are |
| 6904s | not the only team with a couple of swaps |
| 6906s | coming through team Japan is also mixing |
| 6909s | up their roster mihawk has been woken |
| 6912s | from his snap he is now coming in to the |
| 6916s | lineup to you know shoot a couple of |
| 6918s | people cut up some boats and do you know |
| 6920s | what Dustin he's all out of boats this |
| 6922s | is sure to be a really good Showdown as |
| 6925s | we've also got Plankton coming into the |
| 6927s | tank lineup as we head over to our next |
| 6929s | map and since team Japan had lost that |
| 6932s | control map they get the advantage of |
| 6935s | taking us to this map that we go to next |
| 6938s | surely they've got a specific game plan |
| 6940s | in mind but you know what they might be |
| 6943s | a little bit frown a little bit |
| 6944s | flustered by the swap coming through cuz |
| 6947s | when we normally see lb he's like okay |
| 6949s | they going to be playing far or Echo so |
| 6952s | we're going to put our off tank in to be |
| 6953s | able to play something like the diva |
| 6955s | we're going to have our hit cam pick up |
| 6956s | something like Cy or an ash maybe even |
| 6959s | try and match projectiles with an echo a |
| 6961s | far of your own what do you do when lab |
| 6964s | do in the support rule I don't know like |
| 6967s | what maybe just win cuz he's not good at |
| 6969s | support I'm just we don't know we don't |
| 6972s | know maybe he is good at support Justin |
| 6973s | I'm I'm pretty sure that when we've |
| 6975s | actually seen DPS players Flex onto |
| 6977s | support roles in the World Cup so far |
| 6980s | they no they have a 100% win rate okay |
| 6982s | that's cuz they got carried by their |
| 6983s | team won his |
| 6985s | map |
| 6986s | W backone is like actually a good |
| 6989s | support player though that's like that's |
| 6990s | different all right that's he's a |
| 6992s | support player first isn't he like he's |
| 6994s | good he's a good support I don't know |
| 6996s | he's like a top 10 support in the world |
| 6997s | maybe even you know am I wrong wrong in |
| 7000s | saying that MOX he's good but listen lab |
| 7003s | this is it's it's more crazy Lambda |
| 7005s | switching over to support though |
| 7006s | wouldn't you agree oh absolutely because |
| 7009s | like we said lav is normally an echo and |
| 7012s | a far and that means projectiles that |
| 7014s | doesn't really cross over easily to |
| 7016s | something like an Anna or a Baptist but |
| 7017s | we'll have to see as it does look like |
| 7019s | we're probably going to get to see a |
| 7020s | couple of highlights coming through from |
| 7023s | the matches that have been played so far |
| 7024s | because Dustin we've seen a lot of |
| 7028s | really good plays coming through from |
| 7030s | both of these teams qu picking up that |
| 7032s | Bastion absolutely melting through with |
| 7035s | the help of that amplification Matrix |
| 7037s | and you can see as well KSA in the front |
| 7040s | line doing his job creating so much |
| 7042s | distraction that no one keeps an eye on |
| 7044s | the Bastion and as a result everyone |
| 7046s | falls down yeah courts is absolutely one |
| 7049s | of the best players one of the best hit |
| 7050s | scan players in the world and you know |
| 7052s | obviously proving it on the world stage |
| 7055s | today and you know that's why I mean |
| 7057s | they're doing some interesting Subs on |
| 7058s | both sides as well with Plankton coming |
| 7060s | through on the tank Moxy I mean what do |
| 7063s | you think the strategy is coming to |
| 7064s | Route 66 cuz obviously it's going to |
| 7066s | play quite differently than than the |
| 7067s | likes of Busan yeah normally from Team |
| 7071s | Japan we've seen KSG he's been very much |
| 7074s | their their forward tank player right |
| 7076s | he's been playing the doomfist who are |
| 7078s | really crazy degree as well as the sigma |
| 7081s | so very excited to see what exactly team |
| 7083s | Japan are going to be Fielding maybe |
| 7085s | this is when we're going to see them |
| 7086s | actually push towards something like a |
| 7088s | dive composition coming through |
| 7090s | something like a Winston or a diva if |
| 7091s | you think about how Route 66 is there's |
| 7094s | a lot of high ground you also have to |
| 7096s | remember as well we are playing on |
| 7098s | reworked route 66 which I am incredibly |
| 7102s | happy about because that means that the |
| 7103s | doors don't immediately close shot when |
| 7106s | I'm trying to line of sight all of my |
| 7108s | wonderful teammates in front of me as |
| 7111s | Anna we'll see what happens on this map |
| 7114s | in particular obviously Japan you know |
| 7116s | maybe going to play a bit of a different |
| 7118s | play style considering the fact that |
| 7121s | they have plankton in as well and you |
| 7124s | know I I don't know am I am I rocking |
| 7125s | the storyline a bit too much Moxy with |
| 7127s | the fact that labda on support is insane |
| 7129s | like i i Japan surely are going to take |
| 7131s | advantage of that right I mean that's |
| 7133s | unless there's a set strategy for Saudi |
| 7135s | Arabia I've never seen this guy Play |
| 7137s | support yeah it's definitely a cur for |
| 7139s | for sure and that is going to be |
| 7141s | something that is probably going to |
| 7142s | throw a lot of these players because I |
| 7145s | mean these teams these coaches these |
| 7146s | analysts everyone behind the scenes have |
| 7149s | been just screaming so much practicing |
| 7152s | watching through all of these bods like |
| 7154s | the desk talked about because uh Team |
| 7157s | Kingdom of Saudi Arabia is essentially |
| 7159s | Twisted Minds there is a lot of tape on |
| 7162s | this team on all of these different |
| 7164s | strategies that they use and that is a |
| 7167s | huge Advantage for these teams when |
| 7169s | they're coming into the World Cup |
| 7170s | looking to prepare looking to try and |
| 7172s | figure out how exactly they're going to |
| 7174s | try and take this team down and the one |
| 7177s | thing that you can do that immediately |
| 7178s | swerves all of that preparation is by |
| 7181s | throwing in such a curveball as having |
| 7184s | your Echo and farar player coming out on |
| 7188s | a support role |
| 7190s | I'm so curious to see how he does and |
| 7192s | you know on top of things Moxy you know |
| 7194s | both of these teams obviously preparing |
| 7196s | a lot for this tournament doing a lot of |
| 7197s | scrimmages and practices against each |
| 7199s | other right I mean a lot of the viewers |
| 7202s | of the stream maybe not understand that |
| 7203s | you know these players are always going |
| 7204s | through hours of scrims of practice to |
| 7207s | get ready for this to win the World Cup |
| 7210s | and get this trophy both of these teams |
| 7212s | all of these teams competing really want |
| 7215s | that baby in their pocket not their |
| 7217s | pocket it's a big thing huh I mean |
| 7218s | they'll probably have have it on their |
| 7220s | shelf hopefully not collecting some dust |
| 7221s | maybe showing off yeah at One World Cup |
| 7224s | you think any of the P trophy case you |
| 7225s | think Super does that you buy a trophy |
| 7227s | case if you pick up that trophy you buy |
| 7230s | a trophy case dedicated to it and you |
| 7232s | put it at like the front door like the |
| 7235s | second that you open the front door and |
| 7237s | walk into the hallway you want that to |
| 7239s | immediately be on display for everyone |
| 7241s | who walks into your house hopefully it |
| 7243s | won't be like the early days of uh of r/ |
| 7246s | double LIF tropy case but uh you know |
| 7248s | maybe it is maybe for both these teams |
| 7250s | obviously neither have won World Cup |
| 7251s | just yet so kind of looking like dl's |
| 7254s | trophy case Route 66 the second map work |
| 7257s | going to Moxy unfortunately it's not |
| 7259s | Icebreaker I would have like to see a |
| 7260s | boat and mihawk in the same frame |
| 7262s | huh I mean that boat already has a hole |
| 7265s | in it I I don't I don't know that's one |
| 7268s | that mihawk's already prepared earlier |
| 7271s | all right yeah maybe maybe defensive |
| 7273s | side Japan OB just rolling out with this |
| 7275s | composition with the sigma for Plankton |
| 7278s | instead uh interesting enough you know |
| 7281s | having that sub come through also mihawk |
| 7284s | on the Anna meanwhile Saudi Arabia |
| 7285s | obviously have a bit of time to decide |
| 7287s | what composition they want until we get |
| 7290s | to see the run it back of KSA on the |
| 7292s | road hog the last time we got to see |
| 7294s | this guy on the road hog we were |
| 7296s | literally moving into OverWatch 2 off of |
| 7298s | the back of OverWatch one and at the |
| 7300s | very beginning of junker Queen on |
| 7302s | release M at not there it is there we go |
| 7304s | I going to say he ran the road hog to be |
| 7306s | able to counter the Jun Queen given the |
| 7309s | fact that she has has no way of being |
| 7310s | able to block that hook unfortunately |
| 7312s | Sigma does have a shield that he's able |
| 7314s | to put out in front of him so KSA will |
| 7316s | mirror Plankton on that match up ran |
| 7320s | team moving towards that payload labda |
| 7322s | over the top on Baptist actually I think |
| 7324s | I have seen him as on Baptist before is |
| 7326s | a pretty good have keast in his own |
| 7329s | right A lot of these DPS players are |
| 7330s | like you mentioned Moxy uh sa ravan team |
| 7333s | actually moving forward underneath the |
| 7335s | bridge giv some space here meanwhile you |
| 7337s | be sticking towards that symmetra of |
| 7339s | picks under the gas station already just |
| 7341s | constantly spamming those right clicks |
| 7342s | which were believe just recently buffed |
| 7345s | H Cloud just drops down below near the |
| 7347s | billboard side Plankton able to find |
| 7349s | labda mihawk is well on the UV so |
| 7352s | immediately out of nowhere Saudi Arabian |
| 7355s | team get wiped by Japan for The High |
| 7357s | Ground angles yeah kie taking that jeel |
| 7360s | against Sigma punishing again just like |
| 7362s | Diva the fact that that shift does not |
| 7366s | burn out the focusing beam and as a |
| 7369s | result there's just so much pressure on |
| 7371s | KSA shoulders from the echo especially |
| 7373s | given the fact that U like you said |
| 7374s | scking on that symmetra trying to just |
| 7377s | cross out the mega health pack for team |
| 7379s | Japan to try and take advantage of if |
| 7381s | they do get pressured by some of this |
| 7382s | poke coming through from quarts |
| 7384s | teleporter on to the inside oh |
| 7386s | aggressive flank from suren n no it's a |
| 7389s | bit too thick hits the wall doesn't go |
| 7392s | through nanab Boost also still being |
| 7393s | built KSA does have control of that |
| 7395s | objective Japan realizing the situation |
| 7396s | they want to go forward Nico finds lapa |
| 7398s | again early two times in a row now the |
| 7402s | DPS player turn se4 has been picked now |
| 7404s | flanked it on the inside early pre the |
| 7406s | Sleep Guard from mihawk thinking |
| 7407s | somebody's going to take that teleport |
| 7408s | quartz though does trade back Nico who |
| 7411s | found his teammate earlier the cart's |
| 7412s | still being pushed by the way mihawk |
| 7413s | drops the an grenade onto courtz but is |
| 7415s | the damage there mihawk has the nanab |
| 7418s | Boost huki huge kill to find Sur able to |
| 7420s | find mihawk but it's after he got the |
| 7422s | nanab Boost captive Sun by surma CU |
| 7425s | buying the value on the low ground |
| 7426s | doesn't look like it just yet too loud |
| 7429s | his own KSA catches Q out in the sky as |
| 7432s | well but eventually in the sky Q out |
| 7434s | finds quartz amazing shot from him |
| 7436s | counter flux from the likes of Japan |
| 7439s | catches all of the side of Saudi Arabia |
| 7442s | they get wiped once more and we have a |
| 7444s | minute 45 seconds left on the claw great |
| 7447s | play from cloud as well he's actually |
| 7449s | able to use his pylon to negate all of |
| 7452s | that damage coming through from ksa's |
| 7455s | Sigma flux and as a result the allari |
| 7457s | stays standing and team Japan still have |
| 7460s | both of their supports online Kingdom of |
| 7462s | Saudi Arabia coming in with an overclock |
| 7465s | will have the symmetra wall to be able |
| 7466s | to block out some of this pke from both |
| 7468s | the Echo and the soan on the other side |
| 7469s | and they drop it immediately on the |
| 7471s | engagement there's that wall blankin |
| 7473s | waiting to use that gratic flux now he |
| 7475s | goes for it round the shield making sure |
| 7477s | no stun can come through courts able to |
| 7479s | find mihawk though UB go solo does have |
| 7482s | the double pocket on the back side as |
| 7483s | well with a minute left remaining UB |
| 7484s | goes to the mega health pack realizing |
| 7486s | it's gone but gartz over the top been |
| 7488s | able to do so much is able to find one |
| 7490s | but I mean you can't do much there when |
| 7493s | courtz is hitting the shots he is Saudi |
| 7495s | Arabia will capture point a and look for |
| 7497s | stagger kills on Japan oh yep that's |
| 7501s | going to be a stagger on toari that's |
| 7504s | really unfortunate team Japan now going |
| 7507s | to be lacking that ultimate that they |
| 7509s | wanted to be able to force Kingdom of |
| 7511s | Saudi Arabia to playing a little bit |
| 7513s | more defensively as you can see they |
| 7515s | know that thei is not in position |
| 7517s | they're immediately going to teleport |
| 7518s | onto the |
| 7520s | now quartz gets to be the one that fires |
| 7522s | first every single time these |
| 7523s | engagements occur right I mean just |
| 7525s | setting up quartz making sure he is in |
| 7527s | position to succeed Plankton walks out |
| 7531s | takes a little of that pressure Nico |
| 7533s | goes forward nice captive on from K out |
| 7535s | just the shut down course also Sher gets |
| 7537s | hit has the immortality field so even if |
| 7539s | that blows up he surely will stay alive |
| 7541s | KSA is able to find mihawk too so R |
| 7544s | actually dealing with the ultimates of |
| 7546s | Japan relatively well oh my God |
| 7548s | overclock by Nico can even find the kill |
| 7550s | on the L down he is eventually lavda |
| 7552s | will go down overclock is too much to |
| 7554s | deal for that Baptist player buto going |
| 7555s | aggressive into ub's beam they able to |
| 7558s | trade it back though Qi able to get one |
| 7561s | also on to KSA L courtz with the |
| 7562s | overclock of his own over the top gets |
| 7565s | the damage in Plankton also has surma |
| 7567s | jet there and we're getting a pause mid |
| 7569s | team fight twoo as it looks like Saudi |
| 7572s | Arabia are winning that team fight and |
| 7574s | Japan kind of going for a soft reset |
| 7576s | yeah so that was a very aggressive play |
| 7578s | yeah from Team Japan with that serjan |
| 7581s | power slide but it's actually incredibly |
| 7583s | similar to what they did with their |
| 7585s | Sigma both yesterday against France and |
| 7587s | also in the first map when we were |
| 7589s | seeing them use that Sigma to just bait |
| 7592s | out a lot of the aggression and forward |
| 7594s | positions coming through from Team Saudi |
| 7595s | Arabia cuz what it basically does is it |
| 7598s | dangles the sojan on a string saying |
| 7600s | okay you can get this player but the |
| 7602s | sojan before you go down actually does |
| 7605s | enough damage to push their health bars |
| 7608s | below 50 50% and that then gives the go |
| 7612s | sign for your Echo to come with the |
| 7614s | focusing beam because remember Echo is |
| 7617s | absolutely terrifying any time that your |
| 7620s | health is below 50% because it means |
| 7623s | that that focusing beam does 75 damage |
| 7626s | per second instead of 50 going back in |
| 7629s | now and you need see Japan at least for |
| 7631s | Japan side they need to really get a |
| 7632s | hold here look at Yuki yeah he's hiding |
| 7635s | he's hiding he's stopping the card |
| 7636s | actually so they should know he's there |
| 7638s | now he the back up because he's checked |
| 7641s | by the likes of Saudi Arabia courtz Over |
| 7643s | The High Ground as well just checking on |
| 7645s | the inside Plankton has to come back all |
| 7646s | the way from Spawn still allowing Saudi |
| 7650s | Arabia to kind of get this or momentum |
| 7652s | nades committed onto sured can't get the |
| 7655s | kill on him either has the heals over |
| 7657s | the top though so he's not punished |
| 7659s | perfect positioning from the ls of kuki |
| 7662s | also very close to an Ultimate N |
| 7663s | avilable for Japan goes for it on the |
| 7666s | echo Plankton goes so low and he falls |
| 7668s | Muki will trade back suret also an |
| 7670s | amazing sleep Dart from mihawk CI there |
| 7673s | with the follow up in the nanus courtz |
| 7675s | though able to get one does he have |
| 7678s | enough team help here he's got labed on |
| 7679s | the Baptista pocket him but there's too |
| 7681s | many shields in his face at the moment |
| 7682s | labed actually pops the ultimate kuki |
| 7684s | gets taken out of the copy and quartz |
| 7686s | gets the shot and KSA is putting this |
| 7688s | cart into the objective now they have 2 |
| 7691s | minutes and 45 seconds in the last phase |
| 7693s | and the Stagger kills on top of it |
| 7696s | there's that star power that we know I'm |
| 7699s | love from EMA contenders court on |
| 7702s | absolute fire at the moment with the |
| 7704s | soldier and L coming in absolutely |
| 7706s | clutch as well with the amplification |
| 7708s | Matrix as KSA is able to pick up that |
| 7710s | point and take us to point C UB again |
| 7713s | has that symmetra wall to make this |
| 7715s | engagement a little bit safer from all |
| 7717s | the Poke andest coming through from Team |
| 7719s | Japan is cloud unfortunately not going |
| 7723s | to be able to save kie from the sojan |
| 7726s | yeah I mean you're talking about before |
| 7727s | quartz nice shot from him now the card |
| 7730s | still pushing forward entering last F |
| 7732s | territory for likes of Saudi Arabia |
| 7734s | overclock also available and the shield |
| 7736s | this captive Sun's got to be huge for Q |
| 7739s | loud if Japan wants a chance they drop |
| 7740s | the shield first though Saudi Arabia |
| 7742s | into the overclock captive sun to the |
| 7743s | sky actually looks for the sojourn |
| 7745s | courtz gets hit looks like comes on the |
| 7748s | outside as well still healthy and takes |
| 7750s | down CI in the sky that was the carry of |
| 7752s | Japan planked gravitic flux from him |
| 7756s | it's the damage through Nico's able to |
| 7758s | take out U but Surs found cloud and |
| 7760s | Saudi Arabia still have that person |
| 7762s | advantage in this fight as well nanab |
| 7764s | still available from Japan they're |
| 7766s | healthy on the outside taking it slow |
| 7768s | but they lose Nico oh no that's a |
| 7770s | horrific pick for Japan n was still |
| 7773s | available they use it on Qi goes into |
| 7775s | the sky needs to find a kill cour is |
| 7776s | able to get one on the plank an |
| 7777s | immortality field here and anti hits but |
| 7779s | the peel is far too much surma with his |
| 7781s | own Captain Suns SP k out quartz finds |
| 7784s | mihawk Nigo comes in to do nothing at |
| 7787s | this point in Saia r cture out with a |
| 7789s | minute and 11 seconds yeah Kingdom of |
| 7792s | Saudi Arabia just forcing team Japan |
| 7795s | into trying to contest with that Nano |
| 7798s | boosted Echo and as a result that |
| 7799s | payload continues to move unfortunately |
| 7802s | there only respawning members who are |
| 7804s | going to be able to actually make it |
| 7806s | onto the payload and try and stop it |
| 7808s | from picking up that finish line and |
| 7809s | that just does not happen Kingdom of Sai |
| 7813s | Arabia will be able to full push with |
| 7815s | time still left in their Bank as well |
| 7818s | team Japan we're able to slow them down |
| 7821s | a lot of the way through a lot of it |
| 7823s | coming down to them being able to |
| 7825s | control all of those Lanes towards A and |
| 7828s | B so it was a lot of a faster push now |
| 7832s | team Japan have to be able to set a |
| 7834s | blistering Pace themselves cuz if they |
| 7835s | get slowed down at any point in this map |
| 7837s | Dustin it's not going to be a fun time |
| 7839s | for any involved yeah I mean you call it |
| 7842s | exactly what I think is that by the way |
| 7844s | we look back at the highlights quartz |
| 7846s | was doing so much work but you you can |
| 7848s | have as good of a point hold on a you |
| 7851s | know as any team like like Japan did |
| 7853s | Japan held for like 2 minutes on first |
| 7855s | point but if you can't even get a single |
| 7857s | team fight win on streets or last like |
| 7860s | it's just not going to go well for you |
| 7862s | it's obviously not going to go well for |
| 7863s | you against the ls of Courts doing what |
| 7865s | he did on soge yeah I mean a lot of it |
| 7867s | as well was down to yub just coming into |
| 7869s | the symmetra walls at the very very |
| 7871s | start right because it means that you |
| 7873s | don't get those poke kills coming |
| 7876s | through you don't have to worry about |
| 7878s | okay maybe going to get picked off by |
| 7879s | the echo on engagement maybe we're going |
| 7881s | to get picked off by an allari on |
| 7883s | engagement or sojan with that alt fire |
| 7885s | where you're constantly having to not |
| 7888s | just alt track but also alt gun fire |
| 7891s | track as well and whenever I talk to |
| 7893s | support players who were traditionally |
| 7895s | the players who are supposed to try an |
| 7897s | alt track and ALT fire track the thing |
| 7899s | that they say is the most annoying about |
| 7901s | running into a sojen is having to double |
| 7903s | up on those counts yeah you're right for |
| 7906s | sure and by the way we're having a bit |
| 7907s | of a pause here for looks like labda |
| 7911s | fixing his audio issue leading into this |
| 7914s | next M or this map I guess the half uh |
| 7917s | in which Saudi Arabia have that lead |
| 7918s | right on first point you would think |
| 7920s | Moxy do the likes of Saudi Arabia even |
| 7922s | mix things up I know symmetra maybe not |
| 7924s | as good on the defensive side but are |
| 7926s | you going to run it again if your team |
| 7927s | Saudi Arabia well it depends how you |
| 7930s | want to play your defense right if |
| 7931s | you're worried about that poke phase |
| 7933s | coming through then you can use the |
| 7935s | symmetra teleport to just side step a |
| 7937s | lot of it right the way that we UB on |
| 7939s | point a the time that Kingdom of Saudi |
| 7941s | Arabia took to actually try and put |
| 7943s | those pushes together was because they |
| 7945s | were waiting for things like the cool |
| 7946s | downs and also for yub to be able to |
| 7947s | teleport into a position that he can try |
| 7950s | and distract team Japan allowing and |
| 7952s | buying the rest of the team a little bit |
| 7953s | more freedom of movement and it looks |
| 7956s | like Kingdom of Saudi Arabia want that |
| 7957s | freedom of movement they don't have the |
| 7959s | Lucio if they want to be able to out |
| 7960s | rotate this Echo and the potential |
| 7962s | flanks coming through from Clyde on the |
| 7964s | arari and Nik on the sojan they need the |
| 7966s | teleport to be able to get themselves |
| 7968s | safely and quickly around the map P |
| 7971s | setting planked and up towards the upper |
| 7973s | cave side oh my God Nico gets chunk as |
| 7976s | soon as peing the corner a symmetra |
| 7979s | right click doing a ton of |
| 7981s | work they try to push that payload 30 |
| 7983s | seconds already off the clock Japan |
| 7986s | building towards those support ultimates |
| 7988s | because they're taking some of that poke |
| 7990s | thma Jet and quartz on the Left Flank |
| 7992s | just against Kow kuki comes through to |
| 7995s | try to help his support player but a lot |
| 7997s | of that help p is lost ni though comes |
| 8000s | through from the main side Ser gets |
| 8001s | poked down but showing that professional |
| 8004s | support prow West is almost able to keep |
| 8006s | quartz alive but Ki eventually will find |
| 8008s | it and on to sermet as well so nice 2K |
| 8012s | from Ki now it's just stagger clean up |
| 8014s | here I mean they've guard got the cart |
| 8016s | push Ki finds three could he find every |
| 8018s | single kill here potentially he does |
| 8021s | that's four for him in that fight and |
| 8022s | Japan looked awesome on that engage yeah |
| 8025s | and fast as well that's huge because |
| 8028s | both of the these compositions are |
| 8029s | trying to out poke each other to find |
| 8031s | those first picks whoever loses the |
| 8033s | fight especially the attacking team is |
| 8034s | going to be so much out of time in |
| 8037s | comparison and because they're able to |
| 8039s | find those picks and the Stagg is off at |
| 8041s | the back of it the think of Saudi Arabia |
| 8043s | have to give up point a and they're |
| 8044s | still getting stagger they wanted to try |
| 8046s | and recu met teleport and team Japan |
| 8049s | read it out go aggressive with the |
| 8051s | captive Sun from cloud and stop them in |
| 8053s | their tracks yeah SOLO aled C J there |
| 8056s | lab is able to take CI but it's after |
| 8059s | the point was captured 4 minutes and 40 |
| 8061s | seconds left here team Saudi Arabia got |
| 8063s | some ultimates for this one MOX they've |
| 8065s | got high ground as well we saw how |
| 8068s | important having that High Ground can be |
| 8070s | for the soan to be able to control the |
| 8073s | tempo of the defending team's |
| 8075s | engagements because Kingdom of Saudi |
| 8076s | Arabia have been able to claim it they |
| 8078s | are trying now to keep Nico in check oh |
| 8081s | TP into right click but huki after he go |
| 8085s | for that kill went for that kill |
| 8086s | grenades connect onto U so it's Ste one |
| 8089s | for one on the outside as well does have |
| 8091s | the copy so if he does go low can |
| 8093s | immediately do it C has not been stopped |
| 8094s | it now goes for the copy asori hit by |
| 8097s | the captain Sun as well but does have a |
| 8099s | lot of healing on the inside in fact |
| 8100s | surma dead goes low but oh my God the |
| 8103s | captain Sun took out cloud and then |
| 8106s | eventually about the copy as well of |
| 8108s | course after out of the copy Q ke came |
| 8111s | they able able to get that kill lab do |
| 8113s | wall on nio and yeah this is going to be |
| 8115s | a wipe now for the likes of Japan Saudi |
| 8118s | Arabia have a good hole here off of |
| 8119s | double support ultimate yeah full reset |
| 8122s | coming through from Team Japan Plankton |
| 8123s | off of the map to not give ultimate |
| 8125s | charge mihawk just standing still so he |
| 8127s | doesn't get staggered out from the rest |
| 8129s | of his team Kingdom of Saudi Arabia with |
| 8131s | this High Ground Control they've also |
| 8132s | got the symmetra turrets set up as well |
| 8135s | of Team Japan try and dive onto that |
| 8137s | High Ground to take it away from quartz |
| 8139s | this is going to be really tough for |
| 8141s | team Japan to break without using an |
| 8142s | ultimate they don't have the Nano boost |
| 8144s | they do have the captive F we've also |
| 8146s | got plankton with the signal qu is |
| 8148s | looking for that off angle he's been |
| 8150s | spotted out but he's still an absolute |
| 8153s | form in the side of Team Japan because |
| 8155s | there so much time that they're spending |
| 8158s | having to make sure he doesn't pick |
| 8159s | someone off and approach Jaan going for |
| 8161s | the flux above the building connects on |
| 8163s | to everybody but they have double lamp |
| 8164s | here or they have a lamp in a pylon |
| 8166s | rather KSA able to find ni 2 seret over |
| 8169s | the top able to get two with the |
| 8170s | overclock from quartz a lot of or at |
| 8173s | least the overclock committed in the |
| 8174s | symmetra wall with their grav glux for |
| 8177s | team Saudi Arabia giving them this fight |
| 8179s | win in a nice 4K for sur really smart |
| 8182s | stuff coming through from U using that |
| 8184s | symmetra to keep everyone safe when the |
| 8186s | sigma flux comes through it also means |
| 8189s | as well that s Jed's pylon is not |
| 8192s | immediately chunked down by KI on the |
| 8194s | echo who's been trying to send as many |
| 8196s | stickies as possible to take that pylon |
| 8199s | onto cool down as much as he possibly |
| 8201s | can because look court gets to play |
| 8203s | Super aggressively because the pylon is |
| 8205s | out of line of sight if he takes any in |
| 8208s | his he the P immedately heals him back |
| 8210s | up and he gets so much more space in |
| 8212s | comparison to ni oh my gosh he just ran |
| 8215s | onto Nico on the inside there too lavda |
| 8217s | does get his lamp off to avoid the |
| 8219s | follow through damage of the captive Sun |
| 8222s | negating Japan's engage since they're |
| 8223s | down Plankton at the moment this going |
| 8225s | to be rough mihawk does find lav at the |
| 8227s | very least but there's far too much |
| 8229s | healing here far many to far too many |
| 8231s | people for team Saudi Arabia ki's able |
| 8234s | to get one gets the copy too so he's |
| 8237s | going a little bit crazy at the moment |
| 8239s | does get taken out of the copy by Quartz |
| 8240s | and killed so CI is able to find quartz |
| 8244s | finally they shut him down but that card |
| 8246s | is so far back here team Saudi Arabia |
| 8248s | still have a solid defensive hold here |
| 8250s | they still haven't def that High Ground |
| 8252s | from Kingdom of Saudi Arabia's control |
| 8254s | either they do have the Nan boost to |
| 8255s | give on to kuki so that the echo can try |
| 8257s | and jump onto someone but p is pulling |
| 8260s | incredibly low kuki has to be able to |
| 8262s | pull this plank off and he's not able to |
| 8264s | bait out immortality field oh my god |
| 8266s | with the overclock ni's able to find one |
| 8268s | surma dead with the cap the sun does get |
| 8270s | mihawk and also U finds Q f is being |
| 8274s | pushed but a minute left so far forz |
| 8277s | gets The High Ground to has that pocket |
| 8279s | Plankton goes low needs that support so |
| 8281s | that's going to leave Nico exposed |
| 8284s | towards the make a health pack I mean |
| 8285s | he's going to have to run with some cool |
| 8287s | Downs in a second he does so but look |
| 8288s | who's coming up with the gravitic flux |
| 8290s | it's KSA and lapa finds two for free now |
| 8293s | they just run to the inside 47 seconds |
| 8295s | left gravitic flux available and they're |
| 8297s | up a remember Saudi Arabia looking to go |
| 8300s | on the inside make a health pack Cloud |
| 8302s | actually finds lavda so that's one NCO |
| 8305s | also gets a connection onto lavda or |
| 8307s | onto suret into the sky with the captive |
| 8310s | suncloud goes but courtz finds him in |
| 8313s | the sky even without using his overclock |
| 8315s | but he's the last one here for team |
| 8316s | Saudi Arabia as he just tries to live on |
| 8318s | the outside eventually Qi will find him |
| 8320s | do they recontest here Moxy with Al if |
| 8323s | they try and go through these alleys |
| 8325s | they play into planks and with the Hy |
| 8327s | he's going to be able to to use that to |
| 8329s | build into that gratic plux to stop them |
| 8331s | from trying to tap but with the S |
| 8333s | teleport can fake out this position and |
| 8335s | jum onto the back line yeah they |
| 8337s | actually use it to connect on Theo too |
| 8340s | goes down but cuki does find one |
| 8341s | overclock over the top from quarts here |
| 8343s | he goes cuki dead Plankton dead onto the |
| 8347s | rest of Team Japan they're out of here I |
| 8350s | mean it's just mihawk left and |
| 8352s | unfortunately no anime Powers today team |
| 8355s | Saudi Arabia 20 vict |
| 8358s | over Japan yeah not quite the power of |
| 8361s | friendship but definitely the power of |
| 8362s | rail gun the fact is even when you're |
| 8365s | using something like an ultimate where |
| 8367s | you think okay we're immediately going |
| 8368s | to have an advantage you gave quartz a |
| 8371s | bird's eye |
| 8373s | view on that soan and he gets to see |
| 8376s | everybody and you have to remember as |
| 8378s | well they're running the Anna not the |
| 8379s | Baptist so they don't even have any |
| 8381s | imortality field to be able to put down |
| 8384s | for themselves the second at the sigma |
| 8386s | Al goes out and Court just start |
| 8388s | shooting and doesn't stop until the map |
| 8390s | is done yeah and Moxy I want to see if |
| 8392s | you agree with me here I mean it feels |
| 8393s | like both of these teams obviously team |
| 8395s | Saudi Arabia got the 20 win but they |
| 8397s | have a very similar play style right |
| 8398s | it's like that awkward DPS carry kind of |
| 8402s | thing and it's happening with both teams |
| 8404s | obviously Saudi Arabia have a very good |
| 8405s | team but they both have kind of awkward |
| 8407s | play Styles right it's going to be a |
| 8408s | hard matchup yeah I mean like you said |
| 8411s | this is a team that very much know how |
| 8413s | to play around their DPS hyper carries |
| 8415s | you look at Twisted Minds the way that |
| 8417s | they give so many different leg UPS to |
| 8418s | either quartz U or labda and you were |
| 8421s | seeing it quartz was getting so so many |
| 8424s | abilities the fact that Pilon was |
| 8426s | basically reserved on cool down for that |
| 8428s | high ground on point B that was just |
| 8430s | allowing courts to go as aggressive as |
| 8432s | he wanted because of the absolute insane |
| 8435s | amount of reach that that pylon has all |
| 8438s | the way across the map and since it's |
| 8439s | always out of line of sight the only way |
| 8443s | that unfortunately team Japan were able |
| 8445s | to try and contest it was if they |
| 8446s | sacrificed the e shift and stickies to |
| 8450s | try and remove it with a high vantage |
| 8452s | point of their own yeah and I know the |
| 8454s | desk all predicted for Japan but we |
| 8456s | still had a close good series although |
| 8458s | it was a 2 for team Saudi Arabia desk |
| 8460s | what do you have to say about that |
| 8461s | series it was a fun one at the very |
| 8464s | least it sure was Dustin and Moxy thank |
| 8468s | you guys so much for calling all the |
| 8470s | action H great first look for team Saudi |
| 8474s | Arabia and that should make everyone |
| 8476s | who's cheering them on very excited for |
| 8478s | the matches moving forward what what |
| 8482s | explosive DPS performances on that team |
| 8484s | I mean quartz guys way left and right in |
| 8487s | front and center let's take a look at |
| 8488s | the highlights to see how uh Kingdom of |
| 8490s | Saudi Arabia got the victory here Johnny |
| 8493s | I mean this is kind of what we expected |
| 8495s | uh sure there was a little bit of opium |
| 8497s | here on the desk |
| 8499s | oh 100% I'm fuels I'm like I'm up on |
| 8503s | hopium is like 10% water 90% hopium yeah |
| 8507s | this fragrance fragrance of opium in the |
| 8509s | air at least in my room where I'm |
| 8511s | sitting over here I don't know about you |
| 8512s | guys but yeah quite a bit of hopium for |
| 8514s | Japan they were a little fun yesterday |
| 8516s | but I mean Saudi Arabia were the |
| 8518s | favorites going into this map I mean |
| 8520s | they've dominated in European contenders |
| 8523s | all year and they kind of keep that up |
| 8525s | in this match up right here as well |
| 8527s | quartz on the soier looking really good |
| 8530s | they didn't even care that they didn't |
| 8531s | get to play some of these very strong |
| 8533s | far Maps which is their kind of go-to |
| 8535s | style right like they can get it done in |
| 8537s | this kind of double Flex support with |
| 8539s | the lari soldier in style too right so |
| 8541s | great initial look for Saudi Arabia kind |
| 8543s | of as expected um I think they are the |
| 8546s | team that is expected to get through |
| 8548s | this group along with the United States |
| 8550s | yeah Team USA and I think Saudi Arabia |
| 8552s | are the favorites move out of the group |
| 8554s | you know Japan tried I love how uh |
| 8556s | Dustin at the end said that power of |
| 8558s | anime wasn't in love but hey we're still |
| 8561s | we're still rooting for Japan you know |
| 8562s | they're they're fun it's enough to to |
| 8565s | get us on board you know to to predict |
| 8567s | story Japan at least but yeah we |
| 8569s | expected this and so much more uh coming |
| 8572s | out of the game and I think both teams |
| 8573s | absolutely delivered now of course |
| 8576s | Kingdom of Saudi Arabia and Japan are |
| 8578s | both finding themselves with one W Japan |
| 8580s | taking their first L and uh that means |
| 8583s | we only are left with having to take a |
| 8586s | look at USA from that group so that is |
| 8588s | going to happen and we're very excited |
| 8590s | for that however for our next match |
| 8593s | we're heading back to group a so that is |
| 8596s | going to come up and also one once again |
| 8597s | I want to remind everyone to get |
| 8599s | involved you know join in on the |
| 8601s | conversation let us know who you're |

| 8918s | what's up friends we are getting ready |
| 8920s | for match number three of day two in the |
| 8922s | ore World Cup 2023 group stages there |
| 8926s | are being played in a round Rubin format |
| 8928s | so every team gets to face off against |
| 8930s | every team the two teams we see coming |
| 8933s | up have already had their first games in |
| 8935s | day number one unfortunately both of |
| 8937s | them had to take a l there so it will |
| 8940s | remain exciting to see which one gets |
| 8942s | the first W and here is what they're |
| 8944s | playing for we have of course a crowd |
| 8948s | funded price pool on the line this time |
| 8949s | around which means up until the very end |
| 8952s | we do not know how much money is on the |
| 8955s | line which is very very exciting you too |
| 8957s | can contribute and support your players |
| 8959s | by purchasing this wonderful bundle |
| 8962s | which includes the two skins you're |
| 8963s | seeing featured here uh weapon charms uh |
| 8966s | that's uh that's Johnny's favorite as I |
| 8969s | just learned oh the name cards are cool |
| 8971s | too the name |
| 8972s | cards any name cards uh enthusiasts in |
| 8975s | chat let us know uh I'm I'm just excited |
| 8979s | to rock those skins I'm a skin kind of |
| 8981s | person you know but I I'm excited I'm |
| 8983s | excited for everything I'm just an |
| 8985s | excited person I guess like that's is it |
| 8987s | I'm also excited for groups that's right |
| 8989s | here are the groups we have uh we nearly |
| 8993s | saw all the teams the only thing left |
| 8996s | for us to be seen is the team from China |
| 8998s | and of course Team USA everyone else has |
| 9002s | already played their first matches and |
| 9004s | those two teams that I just mentioned |
| 9005s | will be having a go at it today as well |
| 9008s | now heading into our next match as I |
| 9012s | already said Mexico and Colombia both of |
| 9015s | them took a l yesterday today but |
| 9017s | arguably against the two teams in their |
| 9019s | group which we all expect to come out on |
| 9022s | top so I very much hope that this is |
| 9023s | going to be a more even playing field |
| 9025s | for both of them let's take a look at |
| 9027s | the starting lineup starting with Team |
| 9028s | Mexico Johnny what have we learned from |
| 9030s | their match |
| 9031s | yesterday well I was going to come out |
| 9033s | there and just be like this is what they |
| 9035s | want to play this is what they can play |
| 9037s | this is what they prefer but honestly |
| 9039s | they played all kinds of stuff yesterday |
| 9041s | so we don't know quite exactly what |
| 9043s | we're going to expect from this team for |
| 9045s | example here we're seeing them play this |
| 9047s | a slower Ora make composition obviously |
| 9049s | really strong here on this specific |
| 9050s | Round Here on Busan but I do think that |
| 9053s | they want to lean towards the Winston uh |
| 9055s | kind of play that we've seen from that |
| 9057s | uh seen from them so maybe a bit more |
| 9059s | dive heavy I don't think they got to |
| 9061s | really play their game yesterday because |
| 9063s | Finland is such a tough opponent and |
| 9064s | obviously we talked about Finland how |
| 9066s | strong they are slowing things down with |
| 9068s | Vesta playing some of these off tank |
| 9070s | Heroes and their may play as well in |
| 9072s | particular so haven't seen the best |
| 9074s | shade from Mexico yet but maybe in this |
| 9075s | match up yeah Dan going up against colia |
| 9078s | and I mean speaking of not being able to |
| 9080s | put your best forward colia they were |
| 9084s | thrown wench wrench into the wheels |
| 9087s | because they had to replace their star |
| 9089s | player eqo heading into the group stages |
| 9091s | yeah I mean eqo unfortunately couldn't |
| 9093s | join the team so uh their their head |
| 9095s | coach uh Cersei had to fill in and we |
| 9097s | we're we're going to see Cersei again |
| 9099s | for this match as well hey but you know |
| 9101s | given the disadvantages and of course |
| 9103s | having to play a tough opponent South |
| 9106s | Korea you know I think they they had |
| 9107s | some bright moments they had you know |
| 9109s | they were trying different stuff they |
| 9111s | had a lot of different looks I think you |
| 9113s | know but this one it's against Mexico |
| 9115s | it's more evenly matched and one big |
| 9117s | thing that Colombia has they got the |
| 9119s | Vibes bro you know if you guys remember |
| 9121s | yesterday they were losing but they were |
| 9123s | having fun they were happy to be there |
| 9125s | you know I think that positive energy I |
| 9127s | think they could they could work with |
| 9129s | positive mental attitude Honestly though |
| 9133s | we talked about it yesterday I mean |
| 9135s | obviously going up against Korea that |
| 9137s | was not their match to win they knew |
| 9139s | that they still had fun with it they |
| 9141s | still it's not like they they just threw |
| 9143s | the towel in and like didn't try but |
| 9146s | they they had fun and you can clearly |
| 9148s | see that in the player cams afterwards |
| 9149s | they were shaking hands they were |
| 9150s | laughing they were discussing it in |
| 9152s | between RS as well so definitely they |
| 9154s | came with the PMA this one should be |
| 9156s | more evenly matched I'm very excited to |
| 9159s | uh see that team play again and you know |
| 9161s | what I'm all for the Vibes that's why I |
| 9163s | went with Colombia for this one I I I |
| 9166s | liked the attitude okay I I want them to |
| 9169s | win I want them to succeed I want them |
| 9171s | to keep those Smiles on the faces so I |
| 9173s | gave them a 2-1 yeah I'm I'm big for |
| 9176s | positive energy as well but I'm on the |
| 9178s | other side I went with Team Mexico I was |
| 9180s | rooting for them yesterday unfortunately |
| 9182s | they took the L but hey this time around |
| 9184s | I think it's a more evenly matchup uh |
| 9186s | even matchup so I'm going to go for uh |
| 9189s | Mexico I want be Mexico to in this one I |
| 9192s | really do think that you know it was not |
| 9194s | their best showing yesterday against |
| 9195s | Finland but I think today it's a new day |
| 9198s | the sun is shining here in California |
| 9200s | what's new like it always does but it's |
| 9203s | a good day it's a good day and so I |
| 9204s | really do think that today is different |
| 9206s | from Mexico and they're going to come |
| 9207s | out there and get their win here in the |
| 9209s | world cup so you really like hit me with |
| 9211s | the Michael bé new day new dawn kind of |
| 9213s | energy there so exactly you |
| 9216s | know I mean I know play South Korea but |
| 9220s | still appable still appable it's a new |
| 9223s | day for both teams true that's that's a |
| 9225s | fact it's a new day that is factual so |
| 9227s | let's see who can make it their own for |
| 9230s | all the action we're going to send it |
| 9231s | over to Mitch and |
| 9234s | Matt I mean there's really nothing more |
| 9236s | profound than pointing out the obvious |
| 9238s | passage of time yeah did you know you |
| 9240s | get a day older every time the sun comes |
| 9241s | out Matt with you as well I want you to |
| 9244s | ruminate on that I judge I judge how |
| 9247s | long time is moving by just uh the way |
| 9249s | that you look if I judged you by kusta I |
| 9251s | wouldn't I wouldn't know uh custa the |
| 9254s | guy hasn't aged at all I aged about 40 |
| 9256s | years when I had my second kid so I |
| 9258s | don't know if that's an accurate way to |
| 9259s | do it you're better off following the |
| 9260s | Mayan calendar Matt welcome back |
| 9261s | everybody of course with a lot of action |
| 9263s | going on here now in this Clash for |
| 9264s | Central America these two teams Colombia |
| 9267s | and Mexico respectively weren't put in |
| 9269s | the same groups all right there was |
| 9270s | group a actually had three teams Advan |
| 9272s | Group B had two Mexico had to go up |
| 9275s | against United States and Canada that |
| 9277s | was a really brutal group to try and |
| 9279s | play through they managed to get through |
| 9280s | in that third place whereas Colombia as |
| 9282s | we know actually had a pretty |
| 9283s | comfortable run through that America's |
| 9285s | Group B showed us OB obviously a lot of |
| 9287s | talent yes slightly different lineup |
| 9289s | there with eqo not so much of factor |
| 9292s | here but for these two teams M they're |
| 9294s | looking at the rest of their group here |
| 9295s | thinking wow it's South Korea it's |
| 9298s | Finland how do we get amongst this mix |
| 9301s | of teams now how do we give ourselves a |
| 9303s | shot of qualifying to the main event |
| 9305s | yeah it uh I mean it's it's going to be |
| 9308s | tough uh you just see know obviously |
| 9310s | both teams on your screen here you may |
| 9312s | uh notice on the left for uh Mexico uh |
| 9314s | no uh former uh know professional player |
| 9317s | really early on right uh inaugural |
| 9320s | season is their head coach now yeah |
| 9323s | which is fantastic II obviously has |
| 9325s | remained very much involved uh in the |
| 9327s | OverWatch Esports scene uh and still is |
| 9329s | a really consistent streamer as well I |
| 9331s | recommend you check him out always throw |
| 9332s | a host uh again great guy to have uh |
| 9335s | here and obviously the mentorship is |
| 9337s | very important I think for a lot of |
| 9338s | these teams which are showing up with uh |
| 9340s | you know some fairly young talented |
| 9342s | players having the guidance of know me |
| 9343s | there is pretty important let's jump |
| 9345s | into the series here obviously both |
| 9346s | these teams get to find wins in this |
| 9349s | group a one of them of course will come |
| 9351s | out looking a little bit better though |
| 9352s | as ilos is on the docket yeah and uh |
| 9355s | looks like it the first map actually |
| 9356s | will be Samoa so uh we we'll get that |
| 9359s | one uh changed up but uh it's a great oh |
| 9361s | we got a wave going on here all right |
| 9363s | here we go go little little Fan Fair |
| 9366s | early on feel like I feel like you you |
| 9368s | know you only see the wave at like like |
| 9370s | baseball games now I feel like it's kind |
| 9372s | of kind of dated we got we got players |
| 9374s | dancing I like this everybody's happy |
| 9376s | are refusing to be baited into these |
| 9378s | these hyinks at the start of the game uh |
| 9380s | they look a little bit more Focus I |
| 9382s | think Angel lado there's just giving a |
| 9385s | thumbs up across the table and and then |
| 9387s | it's back to business here so uh you'd |
| 9389s | be uh full for thinking this was uh |
| 9391s | Hades this of course is the volcano |
| 9393s | stage of Samoa where we will be starting |
| 9396s | this series after a quick pause of |
| 9398s | course yeah we'll get this one uh sort |
| 9400s | of looks like maybe uh audio issue or |
| 9403s | something there on the end uh players |
| 9405s | check my on Columbia like like bro I'm |
| 9407s | ready to play they've got all their |
| 9410s | dancing out I mean there's uh nothing |
| 9411s | else to do here is uh we saw Samoa uh |
| 9415s | yesterday we ended up uh you know |
| 9417s | casting it and uh really like how the |
| 9419s | map plays like way different in terms of |
| 9421s | each stage so uh curious to see it |
| 9424s | played with uh two different teams see |
| 9426s | the different types of comps we see yeah |
| 9429s | I I especially think in how it sort of |
| 9431s | changed some of the composition |
| 9432s | requirements for team Japan for example |
| 9435s | they started off with the sigma on on |
| 9437s | sort of uh on on downtown and then we |
| 9439s | saw things change up a lot when we got |
| 9440s | to beach which is obviously much more |
| 9442s | like Close Quarters point with less of |
| 9444s | that verticality but still longer sight |
| 9446s | lines and then volcano very different |
| 9448s | because we we have a point that is you |
| 9449s | know mostly covered uh you know by those |
| 9452s | barriers here so again you really want |
| 9454s | to try and Bully your way in we saw the |
| 9455s | doomfist used to great effect there and |
| 9457s | a lot of pressure being put on Poco |
| 9459s | primarily playing the sigma but also |
| 9461s | flexing to the Divas so there's a |
| 9463s | there's plenty of options here and we |
| 9464s | again have our eyes set on some some of |
| 9466s | these signature styles from from both of |
| 9468s | these rosters and see if they can make |
| 9469s | them work on this first map yeah you |
| 9471s | know we've obviously seen a ton of uh |
| 9473s | Bastion uh you know across the board uh |
| 9476s | here is the uh the map set where it |
| 9478s | stands now we don't have a loser so we |
| 9480s | don't have a map too yet uh s will be a |
| 9482s | map number one but uh we've seen a ton |
| 9485s | of Bastion uh early on here uh I know at |
| 9488s | OverWatch World Cup to be expected |
| 9489s | Bastion in a really strong State I was |
| 9491s | curious like if you're going to see |
| 9492s | Sombra like with the rework it seems |
| 9494s | like she's actually kind of like uh you |
| 9496s | know lost a little bit in terms of uh |
| 9498s | you know what makes her uh what made her |
| 9501s | really strong and viable so you bit us |
| 9502s | anyway you know she definitely still has |
| 9504s | obviously a lot of strength with what |
| 9506s | she can achieve with her virus and her |
| 9507s | focus on individual targets but perhaps |
| 9509s | that sort of uh you know overall team |
| 9512s | fight impact uh limited to some degree |
| 9515s | here Matt so we do see like a Broly |
| 9517s | setup which we kind of expect uh on |
| 9519s | volcano here castled already hovering |
| 9521s | that Arisa so this is a pretty |
| 9523s | straightforward composition for Mexico I |
| 9524s | like that look here columia do want to |
| 9526s | poke a little bit I guess with this |
| 9528s | Sigma setup what's your thoughts the |
| 9530s | orisa versus the sigma in terms of the |
| 9533s | comps really you know mirror matchups |
| 9535s | across the board outside of that for me |
| 9537s | I I actually think sigma's stronger like |
| 9539s | right now I I I think if you were to |
| 9541s | like say like who is the strongest tank |
| 9544s | in the game like overall I I think Sigma |
| 9547s | right now Takes the Cake but I'm curious |
| 9549s | your PE uh yeah look I think he does |
| 9552s | well with a lot of pressure being put on |
| 9553s | him here you see this first thrust from |
| 9554s | Mexico Castle so durable and still |
| 9557s | columia able to repel them I think |
| 9559s | immortality field plays a huge part in |
| 9561s | why Sigma is very strong up against the |
| 9562s | braw tank right the amount of time that |
| 9564s | you can buy yourself for that |
| 9565s | incremental damage and also the crack |
| 9567s | control via accretion is really |
| 9568s | important come here send Dr forward and |
| 9571s | pet they cannot handle the heat there it |
| 9573s | will be a good start but it's K being |
| 9575s | rosted yeah for for me if you have a |
| 9577s | like immortality field in the mix right |
| 9579s | and then you Sigma rotates their cool |
| 9582s | Downs like properly I mean he doesn't |
| 9584s | even need to do that properly right I |
| 9586s | mean with like a kinetic grass with some |
| 9587s | Bastion damage other stuff like he can |
| 9590s | just live it feels like forever where |
| 9591s | the Arisa like spear spin fortify and |
| 9593s | then like you're in a lot of trouble and |
| 9596s | M is up for both B players here look at |
| 9598s | how aggressively Columbia are pushing |
| 9600s | pushing Mexico away from that |
| 9601s | immortality F Mexico try and flip the |
| 9603s | fight with an air Matrix of their own |
| 9605s | pet they're going to be caught inside |
| 9606s | the graic pl and sub Gomez very |
| 9609s | comfortable there what a nice little |
| 9610s | threepiece for colia and they're |
| 9613s | brooming with confidence there's so many |
| 9614s | elements to sort of prolong this sigma's |
| 9616s | durability that lifespan to allow him to |
| 9619s | have great impact at creating space and |
| 9621s | they played aggressive they sped in with |
| 9624s | this Sigma set up behind the window yeah |
| 9626s | typically like a uh a sigma you wouldn't |
| 9628s | really kind of have like a Lucio with |
| 9630s | like a speed boost in right but start to |
| 9632s | cut down so much damage as we got an |
| 9634s | artillery early here remember EXO boots |
| 9637s | don't protect you from that Cannon |
| 9639s | barrage uh they just send you up into |
| 9642s | the path of those Mt shells but Mexico's |
| 9644s | going to have beat here so should have |
| 9646s | an advantage that may well here thrown |
| 9648s | out now the team really having their |
| 9650s | Advance prevented and the sound barer |
| 9652s | now going to come out from SOA this is |
| 9653s | where the pressure needs to start to |
| 9654s | build theity field for Columbia is |
| 9656s | already out of the pitch now the blizard |
| 9657s | also thrown down Mexico investing very |
| 9659s | heavily in this fight they'll get what |
| 9661s | they came for for sure but sound Mar and |
| 9663s | blizzard get expended yeah it's a nice |
| 9666s | speat right connects with everybody on |
| 9667s | the team the blizzard thrown in after |
| 9669s | that uh Colombia I feel like is going to |
| 9671s | be okay with this though right I mean |
| 9673s | you give up the point you get 80% uh you |
| 9676s | come back you're going to be able to |
| 9677s | build up like blizzard ant Matrix bead |
| 9679s | of your own uh you think you don't need |
| 9681s | to use all of those to flip the point |
| 9682s | back and then they're in a spot to win |
| 9684s | it but look at this it looks like Mexico |
| 9686s | getting a little bit sneaky I like this |
| 9688s | trying to catch colia coming out of |
| 9690s | Spawn this is how you buy from time |
| 9691s | anding that clock down drama taken down |
| 9694s | Angel Val able to connect there and here |
| 9696s | comes C pushing straight forward again |
| 9698s | hug can't even stand within an |
| 9700s | immortality field here we'll be shoved |
| 9702s | away colia they use the blizard here and |
| 9704s | maybe it's worth it maybe it's |
| 9706s | worthwhile here with a sound bear in the |
| 9707s | back pocket in case things go pearshaped |
| 9709s | colia have a chance to get back towards |
| 9711s | the point here they just speed the back |
| 9713s | te back with the rest of their team and |
| 9715s | yeah they'll have a player advantage on |
| 9716s | point yeah that's interesting that you |
| 9719s | catch a few players off guard this will |
| 9720s | be of a lot with an artillery here sound |
| 9724s | barrier comes in for colia connects with |
| 9726s | three almost overextending they able to |
| 9728s | get back just in time ice block |
| 9730s | absolutely crucial for choba there to |
| 9732s | stay in the fight mayw broken down |
| 9734s | pretty darn quickly here as we see |
| 9735s | Mexico want to get a piece at this point |
| 9736s | they still control it for the time being |
| 9738s | but that's a massive gravic flux three |
| 9740s | CAU in it and as they come down Cersei |
| 9743s | and Mixie able to finish the job another |
| 9745s | huge Sigma play from Super |
| 9747s | Gomez the immortality field will keep |
| 9750s | you alive right but it doesn't uh keep |
| 9752s | everybody topped up in terms of health |
| 9753s | people still drop down to the ground |
| 9755s | after that flux basically dead is looks |
| 9759s | like some trying to get on here to |
| 9761s | contest May Wall comes in oh comes from |
| 9764s | underground just get beating up well |
| 9767s | what goes up must come down man 99% here |
| 9770s | for Columbia in Mexico only have three |
| 9772s | players to work with castled under a lot |
| 9774s | of pressure now trying to find at least |
| 9775s | something on drum hug also staying alive |
| 9777s | and gets to regenerative burth just in |
| 9779s | time meanwhile super gome there more |
| 9781s | solo kills for him and a great start |
| 9783s | here for colia working the sigma |
| 9785s | composition and great defensive utility |
| 9787s | to give them enough time to win in the |
| 9789s | long game yeah it's interesting right |
| 9791s | the ARA don't feel like has the |
| 9792s | sturdiness to kind of like battle the |
| 9794s | sigma comp uh quite frankly I think like |
| 9797s | the one tank that you kind of I mean I |
| 9800s | was going to say like Doom right you if |
| 9802s | you want to play aggressive like |
| 9803s | circumvent the sigma like go around |
| 9806s | right the you think that could be the |
| 9808s | answer but you want to play Bastion may |
| 9811s | I think you got to play Sigma with that |
| 9813s | and it looks like Mexico to make the |
| 9815s | change understandably a little bit |
| 9818s | harder to brawl on a map like this right |
| 9820s | the point is not enclosed like it is on |
| 9822s | volcano so poking from long range and I |
| 9824s | want to keep an eye on uh Angel V here |
| 9827s | because we saw this the soj match up be |
| 9829s | really really important between France |
| 9830s | and Japan on this stage especially |
| 9833s | especially with these Sigma setups you |
| 9834s | can have a lot of space a lot of room to |
| 9836s | breathe here so you really need to be |
| 9838s | delivering on this soj if you're going |
| 9839s | to be facilitated to that degree the |
| 9841s | damage output though is so strong though |
| 9843s | from Colombia right the drummer on the |
| 9846s | the Bastion like the amount of Shield |
| 9849s | pressure and just you know o overall |
| 9851s | it's going to really you know test |
| 9853s | Mexico's healing resources right there |
| 9854s | drummer going to get that first pick |
| 9855s | Yeah you mentioned that damage output |
| 9857s | and uh yeah tactical grenade pretty |
| 9858s | nasty again Angel Val playing this off |
| 9861s | angle for most of that fight but the |
| 9862s | sideline isn't perfect and there's no |
| 9864s | ability to really manufacture those |
| 9865s | insta kills VIA Rail guns Columbia for |
| 9868s | the most part ignoring the sojun outside |
| 9869s | of sending mix back the check which is |
| 9872s | pretty frustrating you need your key DPS |
| 9874s | player from Mexico to have big impact |
| 9876s | here even early in the fight super Gomez |
| 9878s | maybe slight overextension there into |
| 9879s | Mexico's immortality Field Castle able |
| 9881s | to deal with Cersei and mix is on the |
| 9883s | run a good start for Columbia but |
| 9886s | Mexico bite them in yeah some really |
| 9889s | nice healing there able to keep castled |
| 9891s | up and I don't know if you caught it |
| 9892s | where castled was at like a little bit |
| 9894s | less than half HP start a kinetic grasp |
| 9897s | and like his health bar just jumped up I |
| 9900s | mean just ate up a ton of damage there |
| 9903s | as Mexico gets a flip and they'll have |
| 9906s | an a matrix here to work with Tak spot |
| 9908s | for as well pallet throws it down here |
| 9911s | ideally to boost that healing as |
| 9913s | fighting comes to aead drama comes out |
| 9914s | of that assault configure now looks to |
| 9916s | head to the lower ground but SE a sigma |
| 9917s | in the way they just want to Pile in on |
| 9919s | chock but the blizzard will catch him |
| 9921s | nothing you can do about that one and a |
| 9923s | beautiful gravitic flux from Castle to |
| 9924s | seal the deal that's two consecutive |
| 9926s | fight wins for Mexico yeah looks like a |
| 9929s | uh mix and Cersei were actually stuck in |
| 9931s | the blizzard in the flux like their |
| 9933s | bodies like didn't really go up that |
| 9935s | much but still took the damage uh from |
| 9938s | that flux and the blizzard was coming in |
| 9940s | so Mexico two quick fights in a row and |
| 9943s | they all jump up to |
| 9944s | 50% |
| 9946s | sound barriers here for both sides that |
| 9948s | ant Matrix really paying off by pallet |
| 9951s | they threw that down on the top of the |
| 9953s | point here and it was really important |
| 9955s | to deal with that Alpha strike damage |
| 9956s | that came through from columia they |
| 9958s | aggressively |
| 9959s | postured okay we have an off angle here |
| 9961s | with that overclock mayw comes out |
| 9962s | though Angel Val now and he has the one |
| 9964s | target to go for and that's probably not |
| 9965s | the one you want to face down at that |
| 9966s | range drummer looking imperious as the |
| 9968s | sound barrier came down so far um not |
| 9972s | sure what happened there not ideal here |
| 9974s | for Mexico super Gomez looks to try and |
| 9976s | pressure that point in chock from behind |
| 9978s | it's an accretion coming his way Sigma |
| 9981s | now want to face off here Mar in mind |
| 9983s | Mexico still have control the point |
| 9984s | after those key couple of fights |
| 9985s | Columbia need to try and close this out |
| 9987s | but Angel V still uncontested playing |
| 9989s | for that High Ground they'll get another |
| 9991s | one yeah I mean he can't take the fight |
| 9994s | against like drummer and the Bastion |
| 9995s | right but like in those off angles like |
| 9997s | he's able to put down significant |
| 9999s | amounts of damage as Mexico looking to |
| 10001s | tie it up the low ground at Cersei |
| 10003s | coming forward no blizzard available |
| 10005s | here |
| 10007s | a strike from drummer doesn't find any |
| 10009s | purchase and Cersei had to go andall |
| 10011s | that was the only option that Columbia |
| 10012s | had it's such a long walk back that |
| 10014s | accretion is perfect mix never had a |
| 10016s | chance to a light on the point and |
| 10018s | Mexico after a slower start looking much |
| 10021s | more comfortable here now in the sigma |
| 10023s | mirror yeah no Colombia did a really |
| 10025s | good job pushing the piece early on and |
| 10027s | then uh B Mexico got control at the |
| 10029s | point that was it they were never able |
| 10031s | to get in position as uh drummer at the |
| 10034s | start was able to get in get control of |
| 10036s | that like top Bridge area I would say |
| 10037s | and put down some damage but after that |
| 10039s | we're not able to get that Bastion back |
| 10041s | in position so see if there's any comp |
| 10044s | changes looks like Columbia they are |
| 10045s | fully committed Mexico potentially some |
| 10051s | changes okay we've seen this before |
| 10055s | obviously from Team Japan some teams |
| 10057s | just don't like opting into the sigma |
| 10058s | miror it's probably very positional it |
| 10060s | really requires you to control that High |
| 10062s | Ground And if you don't have a Lucio you |
| 10064s | just don't have the chance to really |
| 10065s | fight for it not nearly as quickly here |
| 10068s | come Mexico so I love this here the echo |
| 10069s | Trac we've seen this a bunch from some |
| 10071s | teams very different comps now and I |
| 10073s | think if you're going to play Echo |
| 10074s | Tracer the tank to play with it is the |
| 10076s | Doom uh specifically against these H to |
| 10078s | comps Doom has superior mobility uh |
| 10081s | really to even like Winston and ball at |
| 10084s | this point even Diva right being able to |
| 10086s | use the seis slam or the punch to get |
| 10089s | out of horms way Angel V's made his way |
| 10092s | around the backside here on that Tracer |
| 10093s | sleep on drummer looks like that was |
| 10095s | inside assault configuration as well so |
| 10097s | really limiting the DPS output of |
| 10099s | Columbia in that moment Cersei has able |
| 10101s | to poke freely but maybe doesn't realize |
| 10103s | the pressure is coming towards him over |
| 10105s | on the point and chbl is able to get in |
| 10107s | there and extract H with that focusing |
| 10109s | beam and D is so low just strong wind |
| 10111s | would blow him over this is a great look |
| 10113s | from Mexico they are attacking on |
| 10115s | multiple axes here yeah in in colia |
| 10118s | right they're kind of just playing |
| 10120s | pretty much together around the corner |
| 10121s | they're Mexico's totally okay with them |
| 10123s | playing that type of style because they |
| 10124s | want to like poke from every direction |
| 10126s | right they want to have Angel V on one |
| 10128s | side they want to have the EO on the |
| 10130s | other like castled you know just jumping |
| 10132s | in putting down some damage maybe |
| 10133s | getting a stun off now it'll be colia |
| 10136s | with a now we're going to get like a |
| 10137s | full-on mirror match up false bomb here |
| 10140s | for the brg easy decision to make but it |
| 10142s | comes up short and H's able to Shield it |
| 10144s | doesn't matter though cuz Angel WPS |
| 10145s | around the back and gets it done old |
| 10148s | fashioned way hug a hug a't going |
| 10150s | nowhere right now 28% en counting here |
| 10152s | for Mexico and good old fashioned trace |
| 10154s | of flank PS |
| 10156s | off yeah that could at least you know |
| 10159s | give him a heal or something little heal |
| 10161s | little heal yeah a little heal little |
| 10162s | turn a little shot maybe maybe a little |
| 10165s | bio grenade |
| 10166s | there at the same time super Gomez I |
| 10169s | think is gone in so mixv is looking |
| 10171s | absolutely elsewhere at that moment so I |
| 10173s | definitely left on an island there make |
| 10175s | no mistake probably like look if I El |
| 10177s | you there's a chance I die so you you |
| 10179s | figured that |
| 10182s | out all right drum now making the switch |
| 10184s | over towards the Tracer final so a go |
| 10186s | the dude bring this is a pretty scary |
| 10188s | Prospect the stri flattens the backline |
| 10192s | colia and getting up after that one |
| 10194s | that's going to hurt in the |
| 10196s | morning the meteor strike was massive |
| 10199s | not even going to be able to build up |
| 10200s | towards the rally because there's just |
| 10201s | nobody to attack as everybody falls for |
| 10205s | Colombia Mexico's really put it on with |
| 10208s | this dive count I mean you are reeling |
| 10210s | after that play you on one end it's a |
| 10212s | duplicated Brig who has absolutely no |
| 10214s | reason to worry that preservation and |
| 10216s | then from above the meteor strike that |
| 10218s | is disgusting Dr here in a trac du |
| 10220s | against Angel Val super Gomez pretty |
| 10222s | good purchase there with that with that |
| 10223s | seismic slam rather but might be caught |
| 10225s | here good biotic grenade but will that |
| 10227s | be enough the Rally's ticking Castle |
| 10229s | though is durable enough not to worry |
| 10230s | about theti heal and now a nano being |
| 10232s | handed over to the brri that's a scary |
| 10234s | Prospect indeed SOA wants to sege ahead |
| 10236s | here but realizes that duration is |
| 10238s | ticking down wants to stay in a position |
| 10240s | to benefit the rest of the team 99 play |
| 10243s | Zer there's a rally up for Clum they're |
| 10244s | going to pop it straight away you need |
| 10245s | to be looking out for the Tactical visor |
| 10246s | in this fight colia may not need it |
| 10249s | though getting rid of CHX early and |
| 10251s | they'll finally have a chance on the |
| 10253s | point tremendous job from the supports |
| 10256s | on colia Mixie and hog they keep super |
| 10259s | Gomez alive even saw in his player cam |
| 10261s | he was like shocked he was alive he was |
| 10263s | like wait what so he ends up on the |
| 10265s | ground he's bioed for a little bit he |
| 10268s | power blocks like gets the Nano I mean |
| 10270s | just tremendous stuff able to keep him |
| 10272s | up he falls there I mean that is Mass in |
| 10275s | favor of Mexico colia now with some |
| 10277s | signs of life you have this T viser here |
| 10279s | up in The High |
| 10280s | Ground with the T here getting TR blocks |
| 10283s | out of the fight would be Crucible look |
| 10285s | at the pressure on the soldier and go |
| 10286s | for the ultimate way they're going to |
| 10287s | find the kill B grenade came in towards |
| 10289s | the backline of Columbia but Cersei |
| 10291s | unperturbed and that'll be enough the |
| 10292s | one kill that's going to have to be |
| 10294s | enough for now Cersei still has a lot of |
| 10296s | room to breathe Mexico may have a crack |
| 10298s | at this with |
| 10299s | four so you've lost mix here for |
| 10301s | Columbia so that's like your largest |
| 10303s | source of healing out of the way if |
| 10304s | you're IIA know you got to just sustain |
| 10307s | on through this for the next little bit |
| 10309s | yeah this really agressive wait where |
| 10310s | did the drummer go was a to turn the |
| 10313s | shield just in time drummer |
| 10316s | uh I don't know I don't know what |
| 10318s | happened to the Tracer that's not ideal |
| 10320s | colban are going to have to work without |
| 10322s | the Tracer and super Gman under a lot of |
| 10324s | pressure here the btic grenade came in |
| 10325s | but they're able to get the safety just |
| 10327s | in time castle now needs to respected |
| 10329s | good recall timing there from drama that |
| 10331s | would have been another early |
| 10332s | elimination as the focusing beam just |
| 10334s | came in from ch |
| 10335s | sub Gomez Mutual knock down here another |
| 10338s | one from that brri pressure is pretty |
| 10340s | scary but oh my goodness I don't think |
| 10341s | sub Gomez intended to fight Angel V with |
| 10344s | that they just walked into a random |
| 10345s | seismic slam what a huge turnar around |
| 10348s | here for columia and they're going to be |
| 10349s | a to stay in the |
| 10350s | fight but okay so Colombia will end up |
| 10354s | staying in the fight they're going to |
| 10355s | flip this but Mexico did end up flipping |
| 10358s | the point back towards them so like all |
| 10360s | of this which could have been like |
| 10361s | percentage and you know whatnot for |
| 10363s | Colombia could have got them probably up |
| 10364s | close to winning the game uh ends up |
| 10367s | know not earning anything right because |
| 10369s | Mexico had flipped the points so Mexico |
| 10371s | pretty fortunate there for that to be |
| 10373s | able to happen they have a rally and a |
| 10374s | nano coming in is they're in a fantastic |
| 10377s | spot to maybe flip this B BBS up for |
| 10380s | both sides and Val deploys his no good |
| 10383s | again an easy Brak kill would have been |
| 10384s | great The Shield too strong castled in |
| 10386s | deep trouble great body could response |
| 10388s | there from mixv in the rally for that |
| 10390s | extra durability so put pop stairs as |
| 10392s | well but this is dangerous territory for |
| 10394s | Mexico to be pal that is brought down |
| 10396s | colia might be able to make big old |
| 10398s | comeback here after being at 0% for so |
| 10401s | much of the round trock out of dup |
| 10403s | Cersei able to survive the sticky bombs |
| 10404s | and drop into the biotic field that is |
| 10407s | going to hurt in the morning we had a |
| 10408s | pause C in the final second that can't |
| 10411s | be real that that is utter BM I'm pretty |
| 10415s | certain that we had a resolution of the |
| 10418s | round wait what and a pause is still |
| 10421s | called I think by |
| 10422s | somebody oh World Cup never |
| 10425s | is somebody on Columbia I think uh maybe |
| 10428s | an audio issue or something we we'll see |
| 10431s | what's see what's going on here so we're |
| 10434s | about to have an end of around what is |
| 10436s | this it's like a we like ice in the |
| 10438s | kicker here you know |
| 10441s | like I would I don't know I would be |
| 10444s | absolutely about that if I was going to |
| 10446s | Loser round and I'd to stare at the 100 |
| 10449s | to 99 indicator on my scam for any |
| 10452s | length of time yeah you're like uh |
| 10455s | you're coming off the respawn right just |
| 10456s | sitting there staring at it 99 like as |
| 10459s | they're about to just win like so we'll |
| 10462s | figure out it's I think obviously like |
| 10464s | the I'm look I'm not 100% sure about |
| 10466s | this but a game admins have to actually |
| 10467s | action the paws oh we had a a quick a |
| 10471s | quick all tab there real quick tab okay |
| 10476s | yeah up they're queuing up the victory |
| 10478s | tunes on uh on YouTube or something oh |
| 10481s | yeah they just had to turn up the volume |
| 10482s | on the lowii uh Beast study and trol |
| 10484s | your opponent to this will be one of the |
| 10486s | more interesting hey we're coming back |
| 10488s | from a pause all right it's |
| 10492s | over it's like you're about to land a |
| 10494s | knockout punch and you just stop with |
| 10496s | your F in front of there oh okay well |
| 10498s | we'll see what happens here was boing |
| 10501s | they rigged the scores coming back in |
| 10502s | right I mean I'm so glad this is |
| 10504s | happening okay so Angel V can probably |
| 10506s | touch here they do okay we actually have |
| 10508s | our overtime love to see that here from |
| 10511s | Cersei though definitely wants to try |
| 10513s | and end this now but there are no |
| 10514s | targets anything but a Target Rich |
| 10516s | environment but look at that Helix |
| 10518s | rocket at the feet of Angel Val tough |
| 10520s | for mexo to come back from this one no |
| 10521s | support ultimates to work with TRX |
| 10523s | coming to the point in the soldier just |
| 10525s | for the mobility if anything else and |
| 10527s | it's uh yeah it's a tough one you're |
| 10529s | walking up to The Gallows if you Mexico |
| 10531s | after that pause cuz you know exactly |
| 10533s | what the riding on the wall says big |
| 10535s | comeback for Columbia there on downtown |
| 10537s | even though they teased us with it a |
| 10538s | little bit they'll take the first map |
| 10540s | yeah felt like we already got the |
| 10541s | celebration before it actually ended so |
| 10543s | now they're not even not even that happy |
| 10545s | but no really strong uh performance mean |
| 10547s | that last round right Columbia battled |
| 10550s | back I mean they were in a rough spot uh |
| 10553s | you know Mexico put together a really |
| 10554s | good lead it looked like they were doing |
| 10556s | fantastic with that like dive com uh |
| 10558s | Mexico and then Colombia just kind of |
| 10560s | switched to it and figured it out |
| 10562s | themselves so uh really good map number |
| 10564s | one yeah being a to do that on the Fly I |
| 10565s | think is a really big deal the Samoa |
| 10567s | games that we've seen so far have |
| 10570s | featured that that mix uh between Sigma |
| 10573s | and doomfist you got to see Columbia on |
| 10575s | a dime make the switch and come in and |
| 10577s | play that composition so effectively |
| 10579s | it's a big deal I think the soldier 76 |
| 10581s | from uh Cersei was pretty important |
| 10583s | there in that last map but let's go back |
| 10584s | towards a very interesting orisa versus |
| 10587s | Sigma match up on volcano yeah and and I |
| 10590s | think you see even you know Arisa is |
| 10592s | still a really strong tank I think you |
| 10594s | just see the power that Sigma brings |
| 10596s | right I mean just overall can do so many |
| 10598s | different things Mexico goes to it in |
| 10599s | round number two and they come out on |
| 10602s | top yeah again we see the great set set |
| 10604s | ups on The High Ground pallette they get |
| 10606s | a big uh amplification Matrix there that |
| 10609s | really just helps that healing through |
| 10610s | but this is what happened to Drama by |
| 10611s | the way oh buddy was a punch or a |
| 10614s | backwards blink map's new it's all right |
| 10617s | yeah that's right still got to get your |
| 10618s | SE legs on it even happened to Danny |
| 10620s | limb you happen anybody okay happened to |
| 10623s | Danny Lim I wouldn't feel bad about it |
| 10624s | at all but this is like this is the game |
| 10626s | State Midway through the round this is |
| 10627s | after Columbia Mak that switch up there |
| 10629s | and uh they're able to come back to take |
| 10632s | Samoa away 2 to one in rounds score very |
| 10635s | competitive match so far and I'm curious |
| 10638s | to see now what the Mexico pick is going |
| 10640s | to be because we do have data from these |
| 10642s | I was going to say uh Mexico that had |
| 10643s | some options right they looked pretty |
| 10645s | good on the Dive Right Colombia ends up |
| 10647s | coming out uh on a dive of their own |
| 10649s | ends up like winning it at the end uh |
| 10651s | they're probably looking at their |
| 10652s | success in you know map number two right |
| 10654s | in that Sigma V Sigma matchup and then |
| 10656s | saying hey let's take that as opposed to |
| 10658s | trying to go to another dive M pick and |
| 10660s | circuit yeah more poke comps coming up |
| 10662s | in circuit Royale map number two in this |
| 10664s | match up in group a between Mexico and |
| 10666s | Columbia don't go too |
| 10668s | [Music] |
| 10685s | [Music] |
| 10693s | far |
| 10711s | let's |
| 10723s | go |
| 10725s | [Music] |
| 10753s | yeah |
| 10773s | 3 2 1 let's |
| 10783s | go |
| 10786s | [Music] |
| 10800s | [Music] |
| 10807s | [Music] |
| 10813s | y |
| 10814s | [Music] |
| 10823s | [Music] |
| 10830s | [Music] |
| 10866s | from top to bottom this group a has |
| 10869s | looked like it's been delivering so far |
| 10871s | Colombia and Mexico featuring this |
| 10873s | particular match up two teams naturally |
| 10876s | struggling against Finland and South |
| 10878s | Korea respectively but when it comes to |
| 10880s | this rivaly here in Central America they |
| 10882s | are leaving it all out there and Samo |
| 10884s | was a great demonstration of this it was |
| 10886s | a little bit of a slow start I think at |
| 10888s | times for for Mexico but Colombia I |
| 10891s | would have put pressure on them here |
| 10893s | heading into the second map that's when |
| 10894s | things really got opened up in a sigma |
| 10895s | mirror let's talk Subs here matters |
| 10898s | hisia and Momo com in for Mexico yeah so |
| 10901s | uh two subs coming in for Mexico here on |
| 10903s | circus Royal so uh should tell you |
| 10906s | potentially maybe you know they want to |
| 10907s | have his and maybe they feel like he's |
| 10909s | the stronger Sigma of the two maybe |
| 10910s | that's also why we saw Castle come out |
| 10912s | on the ARA uh at the start uh then Mo |
| 10915s | maybe uh you don't feel like you need to |
| 10917s | play Lucio here you can play know a |
| 10919s | little bit more of a flex support based |
| 10921s | support |
| 10922s | l so MOA definitely got to show us at |
| 10925s | least what these two teams were capable |
| 10927s | of when it came to the the sigma play |
| 10929s | and I guess Mexico probably man maybe |
| 10930s | feeling a little bit forced into that |
| 10932s | position uh I did didn't seem to be any |
| 10934s | debate about it when we headed over to |
| 10937s | beach although of course volcano gave |
| 10939s | you an option to brawl it's got to be |
| 10940s | frustrating that that Arisa composition |
| 10942s | doesn't work out now in the past on |
| 10944s | circuit Royal we've definitely seen a |
| 10945s | lot of teams flirt with bwl compositions |
| 10948s | against the sigma setup more than happy |
| 10950s | to play like Jun Queen even a Arisa at |
| 10951s | times to try and get up in the enemy's |
| 10953s | face and you know deny a lot of that |
| 10955s | space again in the Australia versus |
| 10957s | Brazil match up we saw them play |
| 10958s | Reinhard into the sigma and Brazil gave |
| 10961s | Australia so much room Australia really |
| 10963s | got to push the battle lines up sort of |
| 10965s | essentially for free here but in a match |
| 10967s | up between two compositions that want to |
| 10969s | poke we're going to be looking at the |
| 10970s | DPS we're going to be looking at a long |
| 10973s | range hit scan if Mexico come out of the |
| 10974s | gates with it I do think uh the comp |
| 10978s | with the Reinhardt in the Sim like Lucio |
| 10980s | is really interesting against like the |
| 10982s | sigma Bas comps uh I think it's just way |
| 10985s | harder to execute that's why like you |
| 10986s | don't see like anybody really do it at |
| 10989s | like a you see a few teams obviously go |
| 10991s | to it but it's not like something that |
| 10992s | everybody can replicate right uh you |
| 10995s | think back to previous SM is like uh you |
| 10997s | know goats a lot of teams could throw |
| 10999s | together goats but like to play it at a |
| 11000s | really high level like pretty difficult |
| 11002s | right I think it's the same thing with |
| 11004s | the the Reinhardt base comp with the |
| 11006s | symmetra it's like ah yeah like in |
| 11007s | theory like yeah we can probably do it |
| 11009s | but you know you have to execute it |
| 11011s | really perfectly to be able to beat some |
| 11012s | of these comps where Mexico come out |
| 11014s | with double sniper here so this will be |
| 11016s | an interesting look I mean double sniper |
| 11020s | feels like a a kind of comp that's been |
| 11023s | like gone for a while uh I just don't |
| 11025s | think it has like damage output to be |
| 11027s | able to burst some of these targets |
| 11030s | down I be the issue here as well uh we |
| 11033s | we see the switch over toward towards |
| 11034s | the soier here |
| 11037s | Ang the backline this is extremely risky |
| 11042s | but again being out of out position of |
| 11043s | Sigma a poke composition is a huge part |
| 11045s | of the win condition when trying to you |
| 11048s | know break the powerful poke elements of |
| 11050s | it up into more manageable pieces but I |
| 11052s | mean you have |
| 11057s | their Hanzo is all the way at point two |
| 11059s | I mean uh if you're Columbia just leave |
| 11062s | him there and go yeah like mixi just |
| 11064s | look back and check and just push and |
| 11066s | just bully them right that's how much |
| 11068s | flexibility this Lucio setup gives you |
| 11070s | it's actually going to be a trade though |
| 11071s | hysteria goes down so Sigma out of the |
| 11074s | pitch now for the attackers means that |
| 11075s | super Gomez can sort of lean into this a |
| 11077s | little bit more TRX does nothing for the |
| 11079s | last 20 seconds and then gets kinetic |
| 11081s | grasp much of that damage is being shut |
| 11082s | down there |
| 11085s | event to ro andal with the problem of |
| 11088s | the Hanzo made the right choice but they |
| 11090s | have a Lucio in set so you can be |
| 11092s | flexible in that regard you have |
| 11094s | somebody turn kind of Mark that Hanzo |
| 11096s | push him away right you know Mi he gets |
| 11098s | right up in his face pushes him really |
| 11100s | far out uh then just speed around the |
| 11102s | corner and take a a |
| 11103s | 5v4 here comes the flux here from Mexico |
| 11107s | right wall there really makes it |
| 11108s | impossible to follow up on the players |
| 11110s | that are held aof and the immortality |
| 11111s | field is very straightforward for |
| 11113s | Columbia do they shrug off that ultimate |
| 11115s | yes they give up a little bit of ground |
| 11116s | here but Mexico's next power play |
| 11118s | involves this amplification Matrix what |
| 11120s | a nice meile there though from Cersei |
| 11122s | and that's going to be a sound barrier |
| 11123s | as Columbia wants to go that's two |
| 11125s | fantastic May walls that shut down big |
| 11127s | ultimates on the side of Mexico it |
| 11129s | doesn't look like much right the mall |
| 11131s | doesn't always sort of blow your socks |
| 11133s | off in terms of it impact in the fight |
| 11135s | but first Cersei shuts down the follow |
| 11137s | up on players held aoft inside the |
| 11138s | gravitic flux and then of course it |
| 11140s | blocks off that amp Matrix great play |
| 11143s | from the |
| 11144s | got to go get dber back in the fight |
| 11146s | scirt the Presidente back in So Bastion |
| 11150s | will have the artillery here for this |
| 11152s | next fight is and dude you're in a great |
| 11154s | spot if you're Colombia right uh you're |
| 11156s | going to have everything outside of beat |
| 11158s | here feel like you're in complete |
| 11160s | control able to you know dominate this |
| 11162s | corner you got Transcendence here |
| 11165s | probably for flux coming |
| 11167s | up uh I mean yeah you want to be inside |
| 11170s | the flux if you're not in it things can |
| 11171s | get a little |
| 11172s | awkward all right here comes theas old |
| 11176s | from |
| 11176s | drummer into the gravic flux excuse me |
| 11179s | there from Super Gomez P CAU there |
| 11182s | butasan alter perhaps they were just |
| 11184s | held in place Angel Val finally though |
| 11186s | turning up here it's going to be an |
| 11187s | overclock that yelds two kills blizzard |
| 11189s | was committed to the fight as W by |
| 11190s | Mexico and they come out second best |
| 11193s | after spending so much you can't be |
| 11194s | feeling good with less than a minute on |
| 11196s | the clock I like uh you know I love how |
| 11198s | we have the player cams and everybody on |
| 11200s | land you get to see some stuff where I |
| 11202s | know we're Ron with drummer for a little |
| 11204s | bit and he's you know looking over and |
| 11206s | he's looking over at Super Gomez's |
| 11208s | screen where he's going to flux and know |
| 11210s | exactly where they drop that artillery |
| 11211s | right on top and now have they're going |
| 11214s | to go over and play the Lucio here get |
| 11216s | back in the fight you already end up |
| 11218s | using that Transcendent so maybe get a |
| 11219s | little bit more speed in the mix one |
| 11221s | more fight that's it imortality already |
| 11223s | down his is going to be hit by the cre |
| 11225s | they do get drummer at the very least |
| 11226s | here can you keep super is healed up |
| 11228s | enough before he drops down the answer |
| 11229s | is yes but you don't have any morality |
| 11231s | heal from colia you take a ton of damage |
| 11233s | Baptist is desperately trying to work to |
| 11235s | keep you alive but eventually a great |
| 11238s | flux that's going to give Mexico a |
| 11239s | window into the rest of this map keeping |
| 11241s | yeah it looks like a a PO they had a |
| 11243s | really nice Boop there on the super goz |
| 11245s | like knocked him back towards uh Team |
| 11247s | Mexico they're able to finish him off as |
| 11251s | mexo barely gets over the line though |
| 11253s | pretty good defense there from Columbia |
| 11254s | on point |
| 11255s | a yeah I mean it just falls apart maybe |
| 11258s | like I think it was an early immortality |
| 11259s | field from hug because there was a fair |
| 11261s | bit of balling going on in the front |
| 11262s | line uh maybe like they aren't tracking |
| 11265s | a sigma ultimate from Hysteria there I |
| 11268s | mean you really want to have that |
| 11269s | available I think hug does a great job |
| 11270s | at actually direct hitting super Gomez |
| 11272s | in when he's in the flux to keep above |
| 11274s | 50% but just too much damage coming in |
| 11276s | after the fact here so zomb out set |
| 11279s | their feet behind this an Matrix M and I |
| 11282s | was going to say you you knew you could |
| 11284s | go with an Matrix there because you got |
| 11285s | the May walls out right both teams end |
| 11287s | up using the May wall uh it's actually |
| 11289s | really nice use of the kinetic R thereby |
| 11291s | from uh hysteria actually like used it |
| 11293s | over towards the side end of keeping the |
| 11295s | Mele you got to back away from that air |
| 11297s | Matrix here if you're Columbia yours |
| 11298s | doesn't quite pay off both teams able to |
| 11301s | avoid them here but ultimately it's |
| 11302s | Mexico gaining ground Cersei after such |
| 11305s | a fantastic start it's caught there by |
| 11307s | Chux and now Columbia have to try and |
| 11309s | make this defense happen with four they |
| 11311s | do have some key ultimates though sound |
| 11313s | barriers going to be there flux also |
| 11315s | available now with the blizzard also |
| 11316s | thrown at the start of the fight no |
| 11318s | chance for super Gomez to part with that |
| 11320s | ultimate fantastic preemption there from |
| 11323s | tro |
| 11324s | to set things up for a last push of the |
| 11326s | map yes Mexico finding some signs of |
| 11330s | life here and and really it's once they |
| 11332s | went over and brought the Lucio back in |
| 11334s | right uh know have that speed close the |
| 11337s | gap really if you survive so the thing |
| 11339s | is is like Columbia has like an |
| 11342s | advantage in terms of like Highest |
| 11344s | Potential damage output right you would |
| 11346s | say with the Bastion inside of uh you |
| 11348s | know Wheels mode uh if if bastion's out |
| 11351s | of that right then the damage output |
| 11353s | actually probably sways over more |
| 11355s | towards Mexico to about even where if |
| 11358s | you can survive this right like this is |
| 11359s | great right for Mexico drummer uses that |
| 11362s | early and then now maybe you can |
| 11364s | engage D barrier here for Mexico |
| 11368s | Columbia holding on to their maybe until |
| 11369s | a more opportune moment and this is it h |
| 11371s | doesn't benefit from it still able to |
| 11373s | stay alive with that immortality feeli |
| 11374s | but Angel Val has a shooting range at |
| 11377s | their disposal only the one kill though |
| 11379s | for Mexico and again this aggressive |
| 11380s | wrap around by DPS is going to fizzle |
| 11383s | valaro might not want to hang around and |
| 11386s | I choose not |
| 11389s | to a sold scream there is uh pretty |
| 11393s | dramtic jumps off the side yeah |
| 11395s | extremely |
| 11397s | dramatic and no fall damage so you think |
| 11399s | you would live that but you know kind |
| 11401s | crazy got to be lore reasons I mean |
| 11403s | trying to record those voice lines must |
| 11404s | be really tiring that just occurred to |
| 11408s | me you know all right we need you to |
| 11410s | scream like you're falling from 100 foot |
| 11412s | building again |
| 11414s | we've had enough of that for me over the |
| 11415s | last six years that's every other fight |
| 11418s | they a lot of footage on |
| 11420s | you the receipts have been kept and |
| 11422s | Matrix here up available for Momo |
| 11425s | substitution coming in for Mexico pet |
| 11427s | they have been moved onto Lucio so |
| 11430s | there's a question may Mexico thinking |
| 11431s | they didn't need Lucio or we didn't luo |
| 11435s | as well yep dring here from The High |
| 11438s | Ground that'll pressure that Sigma |
| 11439s | barrier away further slowing up Mexico |
| 11441s | we're again under 1 minute Columbia have |
| 11443s | done a really good job in these last |
| 11444s | couple of fights being able to save off |
| 11446s | the attackers but they don't have any |
| 11448s | ultimates to work with right now I know |
| 11449s | cerse is desperately trying to acrew |
| 11451s | another blizzard but there may not be |
| 11452s | enough time here look at the damage on |
| 11453s | super Gomez and well drama couldn't get |
| 11455s | inside the immortality field at all |
| 11457s | super Gomez though good kinetic grass |
| 11459s | that's going to be able to keep them up |
| 11459s | a little bit longer it's enough time for |
| 11461s | C to try and deploy the blizzard they |
| 11462s | fall after the fact though can you |
| 11464s | follow up with this it's just a s Lucio |
| 11467s | they caught in the blizzard and then the |
| 11468s | gravitic flux comes down hysteria takes |
| 11470s | an absolute battering at two versus |
| 11472s | three will it be enough drama is going |
| 11473s | to be burned down and hug now comes to |
| 11475s | the point on the KIRO one versus two |
| 11477s | won't get it done and Mexico looking to |
| 11479s | squeak in ch's back on the point on the |
| 11481s | reaper guy but uh no chance to touch |
| 11484s | there as the basan ultimate came through |
| 11486s | very close conclusion to that push but |
| 11488s | Mexico get home yeah I I actually |
| 11491s | thought know Mexico I mean they they |
| 11493s | come up super clutch right as colia does |
| 11495s | a great job on that first point uh and |
| 11498s | then they really just kind of know once |
| 11500s | they're able to get there they do a nice |
| 11502s | job completing the rest of the map so |
| 11505s | now ball in Colombia's Court here to try |
| 11508s | and answer you know uh typically we do |
| 11510s | see teams get stalled out there at the |
| 11511s | end of this map so that can be a pretty |
| 11514s | dangerous situation here for |
| 11517s | Colombia they're having time to spare |
| 11521s | after that push pretty impressive stuff |
| 11523s | there from |
| 11524s | Mexico like a two versus three blizard |
| 11527s | in a gravitic flux any other day would |
| 11529s | be absolutely |
| 11530s | devastating we got to hand it to Angel V |
| 11533s | there on the |
| 11535s | Bastion to seal the deal love that |
| 11538s | really been a competitive Series so far |
| 11540s | oh yeah but now Mexico have to convert |
| 11542s | on a really nice attack here to push us |
| 11544s | to a |
| 11545s | third I mean uh this is what world comes |
| 11548s | about right you get all these awesome |
| 11549s | like close match ups take a look at this |
| 11551s | here at the end is Angel I mean this is |
| 11555s | uh you say Bastion is strong this is why |
| 11560s | is man just then here comes the Reaper |
| 11563s | guy towards the end it already used The |
| 11564s | Wraith form to get out of the spawn |
| 11566s | nothing you can do there yeah it's like |
| 11569s | impossible for drama to stall I think |
| 11571s | they have to use all three blinks to get |
| 11572s | to the point so Ang just goes and blows |
| 11575s | them up |
| 11576s | instantly all right well could have gone |
| 11578s | either way that one I'll be honest with |
| 11580s | you Columbia now must finish the map as |
| 11583s | well and take it to some extra innings |
| 11585s | composition rise we actually have a |
| 11587s | mirror now bans from both teams May |
| 11591s | throwing up here to try and cut angel |
| 11593s | potential DPS output and it does put in |
| 11596s | an advantage here they get rid of that |
| 11598s | is Fallen Angel not in a position to |
| 11601s | putting pressure back you know Angel V |
| 11603s | did a really nice job we C in that |
| 11605s | replay there towards the end with the |
| 11606s | Bastion grenade uh not to just kind of |
| 11608s | like Get It eaten by that kinetic grasp |
| 11610s | of super Gus just kind of throws to the |
| 11612s | side and kills him with the splash |
| 11613s | damage that time you saw it uh from |
| 11615s | Mexico's POV the splash damage that |
| 11618s | comes in from drummer's grenade I mean |
| 11619s | just send like a few of them underneath |
| 11621s | the bridge up into the sky and chunks of |
| 11623s | HP they all crumble after |
| 11627s | that all |
| 11629s | right good stuff from Columbia there the |
| 11632s | M pretty devastating P of V but this |
| 11633s | time they just go straight on through it |
| 11635s | immortality F to keep the Vasan standing |
| 11638s | nicely done by Momo there a lot of |
| 11639s | healing to be done in those last couple |
| 11641s | of moments and cersi just gets |
| 11643s | caught might just see Columbia yeah |
| 11645s | completely reset here after losing the |
| 11647s | M yeah you don't have that may wall to |
| 11649s | block some of that damage almost as a |
| 11651s | second Shield yeah this is a |
| 11653s | it's a death reset here well feels like |
| 11657s | this is why Lucio is important even |
| 11658s | though you are playing a poke |
| 11659s | composition you maybe don't think about |
| 11661s | Mobility so much when you're defending |
| 11662s | with a sigma setup but being out a chase |
| 11664s | like that get that extra Al charge and |
| 11665s | also get some stagger is pretty crucial |
| 11667s | well if you have no Shield you have no |
| 11669s | May wall right no ktic grasp like you |
| 11672s | need something to know kite some of the |
| 11674s | damage right especially if they're kind |
| 11676s | of engaging with they just by time |
| 11680s | yeahia really reluctant to get this High |
| 11682s | ground up and this this is why graic |
| 11684s | flux comes in oh this is going to be a |
| 11685s | killer mix for yep they couldn't do much |
| 11687s | about that one they would have dropped |
| 11688s | and died either way Hyster now |
| 11690s | surrounded though the blizard may be |
| 11691s | unexpected Cersei deploys that but |
| 11692s | hesteria still able to find a kill on |
| 11694s | the M here this is going horribly wrong |
| 11697s | for colia they spent so much in that |
| 11699s | fight and again get |
| 11700s | repelled yeah I mean that's a huge sound |
| 11703s | barrier there that comes in there Po got |
| 11706s | a really nice map there on the Lucio uh |
| 11710s | Landing that sound barer pushing on up |
| 11712s | as yeah I mean this is not going well |
| 11714s | for Columbia right uh now you come back |
| 11716s | what you have a flux but you have the |
| 11719s | the immortality field to kind of like |
| 11720s | live through that as |
| 11723s | uhoh wall throwing up I see the idea |
| 11726s | behind there nothing I mean again when |
| 11728s | Columbia spend you know good money after |
| 11731s | B by throwing that blizzard into what |
| 11732s | end up being a lost fight you know you |
| 11734s | just have the advantage deploy it as |
| 11735s | soon as you can in that small room and |
| 11737s | there's no escape and I like even if |
| 11740s | Mexico loses this they're in a great |
| 11742s | spot right in terms of like this next |
| 11744s | fight so oh you lose that's pretty rough |
| 11746s | uh because you can in theory right if |
| 11748s | you are evenly matched you can play |
| 11750s | close up and force some of these |
| 11751s | ultimates out now look at Columbia I |
| 11753s | mean they know they have a player |
| 11755s | Advantage they're going to try and push |
| 11756s | that pace where you can't play as close |
| 11758s | as a spawn to or Force these ultimates |
| 11760s | out that's a huge pick not just player |
| 11761s | Advantage here they have that sound |
| 11763s | barrier Edge over Mexico coming to this |
| 11765s | next fight and if super Gomez can land a |
| 11767s | big clu it's got to be all over that's a |
| 11768s | devastating pick off there miby just |
| 11770s | firing into the void and finding a key |
| 11773s | elimination here comes the flux super |
| 11774s | gome is playing safe cuz they know |
| 11776s | there's an M Matrix in play can grass |
| 11778s | comes up and have a look at the |
| 11780s | overshield they got lot of damage |
| 11782s | mitigated there we still need to convert |
| 11784s | the plane needs to be landed here TR |
| 11786s | comes out of ice block and takes damage |
| 11788s | from both the sigma and the May |
| 11790s | simultaneously super Gomez wants to try |
| 11792s | and limit the effectiveness of the |
| 11793s | basting on The High Ground Angel B is |
| 11795s | getting so much done eventually they |
| 11797s | have to try and drop get closer they |
| 11798s | give up the point oh and it looks like |
| 11800s | actually got stunned out of the flux |
| 11802s | there there potentially is a hysteria |
| 11804s | win for that so it looks like super go |
| 11805s | has actually may have nailed him with |
| 11807s | the accre and stunned him out I think if |
| 11809s | you actually land that flux you probably |
| 11811s | consider using sound barrier there and |
| 11812s | fighting that that would have been a |
| 11813s | large chunk of damage maybe get a kill |
| 11815s | or two off of that really nice play |
| 11818s | there by super |
| 11820s | go columia they finally opening with |
| 11824s | that kill from mix had that not happened |
| 11826s | there still a distinct ultimate |
| 11827s | Advantage but you know things don't |
| 11829s | always follow that kind of Rhyme or |
| 11831s | Reason in this game |
| 11833s | o okay big chunk of damage there on |
| 11835s | Cersei I think that was the Tactical |
| 11836s | grenade coming in I like this okay Super |
| 11839s | G is trying to hit get an accretion here |
| 11840s | to lock people inside the effective |
| 11842s | radius of a Bastian ultimate the |
| 11843s | blizzard though is more than enough hisa |
| 11845s | was well extended onto the car here |
| 11847s | Columbia Paving the way to be really |
| 11849s | competitive here on circuit Royal yeah |
| 11851s | even with the sound barrier there you're |
| 11853s | not able to keep stereo up as now colia |
| 11858s | pushing forward they have Angel here |
| 11861s | potentially able to finish off this Kill |
| 11863s | smaro by superg doesn't want to get like |
| 11865s | baited in right you know go a little bit |
| 11867s | farther forward and then get taken out |
| 11869s | is it's going to be the second |
| 11871s | checkpoint you have a few players trying |
| 11872s | to get there towards the contest and now |
| 11874s | you're going to have some staggers I |
| 11875s | mean the only ultimate you had at the |
| 11877s | time was air Matrix H pops out as soon |
| 11879s | as they build it up and instantly Angel |
| 11881s | Val gets blown to Smither there's no |
| 11883s | time for Mexico to respond to that |
| 11885s | because they're already throwing |
| 11886s | themselves bodily at the cart 2 minutes |
| 11889s | 44 to work with now how good colia how |
| 11892s | good are they rather at taking that High |
| 11894s | Ground position with the window uh right |
| 11897s | here if they can maintain this control |
| 11899s | and also get they're in great shape they |
| 11901s | have to know I mean look at where Angel |
| 11904s | V and hysteria are think they know I |
| 11906s | mean does not look like |
| 11908s | it do we get two justes TRX get caught |
| 11911s | in that unclear Momo though going to |
| 11912s | have to go for a immortality field but |
| 11914s | still going to get taken they went for |
| 11916s | air Matrix as well Hyster at the very |
| 11918s | least find two quick kills and the |
| 11920s | blizzard thrown at the point might not |
| 11922s | be worth here hysteria really just |
| 11924s | stalling super Gomez has to wait for the |
| 11926s | grasp to expire eventually so will |
| 11928s | hysteria you've bought some time but you |
| 11931s | spent huge ultimates Momo and you're |
| 11934s | part it's not like it's not like you |
| 11937s | bought like you know you bought like a |
| 11939s | minute there I mean 20 seconds I mean |
| 11941s | that's not a a huge amount of time a |
| 11944s | hysteria in Angel blood I don't think |
| 11946s | had any idea that they had wrapped all |
| 11947s | the way up to that window already I |
| 11948s | think they no clue cuz they turn the |
| 11950s | corner and they go to challenge the car |
| 11951s | and there's like no |
| 11953s | there here having switch to the Genji |
| 11955s | hoping to put some more pressure on drum |
| 11958s | who starting to become a real issue Zur |
| 11960s | coming out in response there a lot of |
| 11961s | respect for the ultimate from Angel Val |
| 11963s | but meanwhile Cy trying to walk it in |
| 11964s | hysteria is so low but C super Gomez |
| 11966s | inside the gravic flux ice block won't |
| 11968s | be enough for Cersei buys a little bit |
| 11970s | of time but still Colombia will be |
| 11972s | repelled with a minute 20 left to play |
| 11974s | yeah you just jump off the side here if |
| 11976s | you're Columbia you come back you know |
| 11978s | blizzard here potentially uh you know |
| 11981s | artillery strike you you could kind of |
| 11983s | combo those you can maybe even uh know |
| 11985s | use an amp Matrix there to get some |
| 11987s | extra Bastion damage like force players |
| 11988s | around the corner uh you just need to |
| 11991s | get this fight over with fast you can't |
| 11993s | allow you know too much time here to let |
| 11995s | the payload creep backwards you can |
| 11997s | actually get it in a position where if |
| 11998s | you take this fight fast and you know |
| 12000s | win it you can actually probably you |
| 12002s | know score and win the game off of this |
| 12004s | barrier |
| 12006s | unsuccessful can Cersei guarantee a |
| 12009s | powerful blizzard to end the round here |
| 12011s | colia will only have a slim lead either |
| 12014s | way Trux here not really bothered by the |
| 12017s | Bas in ultim by the looks of things |
| 12018s | there's that bliz from Cersei but aeria |
| 12020s | fell in that fight able to break through |
| 12022s | the sigma is huge But Here Comes TRX |
| 12024s | with the Dragon Blade moo by the way |
| 12026s | finding both opposing supports and |
| 12027s | Mexico might have set themselves up to |
| 12029s | win the map outright yeah pette has |
| 12032s | Transcendence here coming up and there's |
| 12035s | nothing on the other side so you're |
| 12037s | going to be really healthy if you're |
| 12039s | Mexico with an opportunity send it to a |
| 12042s | final |
| 12046s | pretty key Dragon Blade there Momo |
| 12048s | though now showing us why they were |
| 12049s | subed in huge moment from them mix out |
| 12052s | of the picture your Lucio was gone and |
| 12054s | your ability to swarm over the card has |
| 12055s | now been diminished significantly as has |
| 12057s | your life forces pet they get to sit on |
| 12059s | a Transcendence coming into the last |
| 12061s | fight and Mexico even up the series |
| 12064s | making this interesting just as we were |
| 12067s | hinted at after seeing the game play in |
| 12069s | map one yeah and I thought map one was |
| 12073s | really close map one went down to the |
| 12075s | wire specifically you know on these |
| 12077s | Sigma based compositions that was the |
| 12079s | round that Mexico won right playing that |
| 12081s | some of that Sigma style and they end up |
| 12083s | know battling back here in a really |
| 12085s | close map here against Colombia now with |
| 12088s | the ball in Colombia's court right of |
| 12090s | what they decide to do here with this |
| 12092s | final map given the balance of power in |
| 12095s | this group a this is likely the best |
| 12097s | opportunity for either of these teams to |
| 12099s | show what they're made of and they've |
| 12101s | given us an in incredibly competitive |
| 12103s | Series so far circuit Royal could |
| 12105s | absolutely have gone either way got to |
| 12108s | say the Momo substitution even though |
| 12110s | pet they sort of forced to move over |
| 12112s | towards Lucio to facilitate for this you |
| 12113s | can see why it makes sense Mi here of |
| 12116s | course this is that sound barrier for |
| 12118s | Columbia in that sort of first half they |
| 12121s | really start to put pressure on Mexico |
| 12122s | we thought Columbia looking really good |
| 12123s | here until they get blown out further |
| 12125s | down the map yeah I thought even uh |
| 12128s | potential for uh you know a hold there |
| 12132s | that's a nice R see that's what I was |
| 12134s | talking about not not putting it into |
| 12136s | the uh kinetic grasp he had just droing |
| 12138s | it right before it's a obviously the |
| 12141s | sigma is low but still add is a lot of |
| 12143s | damage and then uh yeah Ser he get with |
| 12145s | a just a elbow drop there from the top |
| 12148s | row with the |
| 12150s | artillery I like this play as well TRX |
| 12152s | has to be super aware of that kinetic |
| 12154s | grasp making sure the blizzard doesn't |
| 12156s | get gobbled up and that's what we |
| 12158s | thought it was it was all happening for |
| 12159s | for the Defenders we thought the game |
| 12161s | would be over there the next fight |
| 12162s | though that's where columia shows a |
| 12163s | little bit of backbone here here's that |
| 12165s | sound barrier to really respect the Al |
| 12167s | from Angel Val but hysteria able to |
| 12169s | rotate down after the gravitic flux kill |
| 12171s | on their opposite number Sigma it is |
| 12173s | real nice what is the pick going to be |
| 12176s | here for Columbia we saw what they had |
| 12178s | for us on S we saw the flexibility in |
| 12180s | terms of tank pick circuit Royal doesn't |
| 12182s | really allow for that you're very much |
| 12183s | priced in to playing Sigma mirrors at |
| 12186s | least at this level so how do you |
| 12188s | emancipate yourself from restricting |
| 12191s | your tank player that's what I want to |
| 12192s | see from Columbia yeah I mean the the |
| 12195s | next uh map selection is definitely |
| 12197s | going to tell you how they feel in terms |
| 12199s | of where the the strength is and how |
| 12201s | they feel like they can end up beating |
| 12203s | uh Mexico I think it's been really close |
| 12205s | in those Sigma matchups uh where |
| 12207s | Mexico's gotten like the The Edge right |
| 12209s | uh you know you would say where uh |
| 12211s | Columbia looked pretty good you know |
| 12213s | using some of those doomfist base coms |
| 12216s | right that's what something I look |
| 12217s | forward to seeing a little bit more of |
| 12219s | because it really showed us their |
| 12220s | ability to actually fight a multiple fr |
| 12222s | we got to see like the Tracer Echo the |
| 12224s | doomfist look from them uh that that to |
| 12226s | me was quite exciting can you can you |
| 12229s | get a map pick I guess in in map three |
| 12231s | that really allows you to go for that |
| 12233s | yes you can new Queen Street is the pick |
| 12235s | here we've seen teams play The Rush |
| 12238s | Styles but also plenty of doomfist play |
| 12240s | even some Wrecking Ball uh over the time |
| 12242s | obviously at the top level of OverWatch |
| 12244s | I'm really excited to see what these |
| 12245s | teams formulate composition on new Queen |
| 12248s | Street we're going to have to wait |
| 12249s | though until after the break here it is |
| 12251s | Mexico and Columbia going all the way to |
| 12252s | Max |
| 12253s | [Applause] |
| 12255s | [Music] |

| 12390s | [Music] |
| 12430s | n |
| 12432s | [Music] |
| 12448s | after open and shut Affairs in both |
| 12450s | their first matches respectively |
| 12452s | Columbia and Mexico now finally have a |
| 12454s | chance to show us what they made of and |
| 12456s | to leave it all out there as we go all |
| 12458s | the way to our third map in this series |
| 12461s | the pick for Columbia was new Queen |
| 12463s | Street yeah and we've seen doomfist be |
| 12466s | pretty strong on new Queen Street uh in |
| 12469s | the past and I thinki has to be de in |
| 12471s | Mexico to be prepared for Colombia to |
| 12473s | come out with maybe something a little |
| 12475s | bit different a little bit more |
| 12476s | aggressive a dive oriented |
| 12479s | C again the push maps in the past we've |
| 12481s | seen teams try both approaches we've |
| 12484s | seen plenty of Rush compositions come |
| 12485s | out obviously involving your longer |
| 12487s | range hit scan pieces we had a a lot |
| 12490s | of Sombra Winston play as well but we |
| 12494s | may see a lot less of that going forward |
| 12496s | here doomfist though is definitely still |
| 12497s | a viable option especially with some |
| 12499s | players maybe considering SRA to be less |
| 12501s | of a sure thing she was often brought |
| 12503s | into really try and limit doomfist's |
| 12505s | Effectiveness shut down that power block |
| 12506s | and otherwise disrupt him in general and |
| 12509s | that's maybe why we started to see it on |
| 12510s | Samoa maybe why we might expect to see |
| 12512s | it here on beautiful new Queen Street |
| 12515s | and this is a match that basically |
| 12516s | decides you know which of Columbia and |
| 12518s | Mexico keep themselves off the bottom of |
| 12519s | this group they're both 011 having lost |
| 12522s | in 02s so win here would be great but |
| 12525s | map differential tough to claw back |
| 12527s | after you know facing a 02 here he'd |
| 12530s | definitely love to get two maps in the |
| 12532s | win |
| 12533s | column yes uh see potentially what these |
| 12536s | teams decide to do here early |
| 12539s | on what do it I I think they're probably |
| 12544s | just no it's not it's not bad I think |
| 12547s | they're just probably just meing a |
| 12549s | little bit though start things off uh I |
| 12552s | think sombra's like kind of fallen out |
| 12554s | of favor as Winston has just because of |
| 12556s | the damage output of uh fashion to not |
| 12559s | as easy to escape as Sombra anymore as |
| 12562s | uh both teams come out with that mirror |
| 12564s | matchup so we're going to see this Sigma |
| 12566s | mash and battle yet again as we've |
| 12568s | discussed uh we talked about it on Samoa |
| 12571s | Sigma definitely the the safest pick one |
| 12573s | of the most robust picks in the tank |
| 12575s | roll you can make right now cersi maybe |
| 12577s | not ready for all the damage coming from |
| 12578s | Angel Valu a very early ice Block Force |
| 12580s | but mix crucial environmental kill |
| 12583s | unfortunately it's going to take a lot |
| 12584s | more than that CHX is able to find two |
| 12586s | quick kills make it three and Mexico |
| 12588s | picking up where they left off super |
| 12590s | Gomez denied a kill on TRX by that wall |
| 12594s | yes I mean it seemed like columia they |
| 12597s | want to get quite aggressive I would say |
| 12600s | and push right on in and uh Mexico was |
| 12603s | more than Keen for the battle as few big |
| 12606s | kills early on the the kill on the |
| 12608s | Cersei is huge right getting the May out |
| 12609s | of the equation may just so much |
| 12612s | survivability for herself and the rest |
| 12613s | of the team and they'll get that bot mov |
| 12616s | and is uh going to get you know these |
| 12618s | fights like it kind of depends right |
| 12620s | like look at this wrapping all the way |
| 12622s | around like this fight goes pretty fast |
| 12623s | Mexico has a chance of taking checkpoint |
| 12625s | here I don't have that from colia |
| 12627s | responding very quickly with a May wall |
| 12628s | of their own as both teams actually pull |
| 12630s | back after extending their immortality |
| 12632s | fields are you ready for this though the |
| 12634s | air Matrix from Momo super go |
| 12635s | desperately trying to get back to safety |
| 12637s | and they do just in time enough time for |
| 12639s | mixfeed to get a sound Barry in play pet |
| 12642s | they're a little further behind in terms |
| 12643s | of that old charge here but this sound |
| 12645s | barrier might go for nothing if Columbia |
| 12647s | can't pick themselves up off the floor |
| 12648s | in this small room a big gravitic flux |
| 12650s | potentially there from Hysteria who gets |
| 12652s | dropped Cersei was below half when they |
| 12654s | hit the ground and that immortality |
| 12656s | field Was tantalizingly Out Of Reach |
| 12658s | drum able to find two that's important |
| 12660s | hug now on the back foot though that may |
| 12662s | makes it so hard to help out with super |
| 12664s | Gomez they're still able to hang on |
| 12665s | though and get rid of may now backed up |
| 12668s | by hug super Gomez should be able to |
| 12670s | hold their ground you know hysteria is |
| 12672s | still here uh still holding on put they |
| 12676s | find one H if this say if you could have |
| 12678s | kept hysteria alive you had some players |
| 12680s | coming off the respawn maybe you |
| 12681s | consider beating there uh and you're |
| 12683s | able to make that a a little bit more |
| 12685s | interesting but a decent first push of |
| 12688s | the barricade there for Mexico 27 m |
| 12691s | mightbe a little bit of a rivalry |
| 12693s | Brewing here between pet and |
| 12695s | mix both Lucio players have been gunning |
| 12697s | for each other in those previous fights |
| 12699s | after palad has send kining off the map |
| 12701s | for that environmental kill of that |
| 12702s | first fight crucially pet they have a |
| 12705s | sound barrier in Play here's a gratic |
| 12708s | flux from Super Gomez you pop inside the |
| 12710s | small room okay you've got the sound |
| 12711s | barrier comes out here great response |
| 12713s | pallet holding it just in time but oh |
| 12714s | you CAU inside the basti ultimate a |
| 12717s | Canon barage knocks you down and colia |
| 12719s | now starting to get out in front oh I |
| 12722s | mean that is huge there for colia as |
| 12725s | they're going to take the lead and not |
| 12726s | only are they going to take the lead a |
| 12728s | few know staggers here stagger on the |
| 12729s | Momo there towards the end you're going |
| 12731s | to get this first checkpoint potentially |
| 12733s | uh that is huge there for Columbia big |
| 12736s | ridic flocks from Super Gomez H combo is |
| 12739s | out of control because the gravitic flux |
| 12740s | comes in pet just sound barries it Dr |
| 12743s | goes okay I'm going to send three |
| 12744s | mortars into the same spot inside this |
| 12746s | flux your sound Barry isn't going to |
| 12748s | matter uh miscommunication there perhaps |
| 12751s | looks like immortality Feld deployed for |
| 12753s | drama they were full HP at the time |
| 12755s | Columbian are going to back away with |
| 12757s | now in play drum still has a che little |
| 12759s | flank angle and mix has a sound barrier |
| 12760s | so you can can recover from this |
| 12763s | especially if you get rid of chalu and |
| 12764s | so they do mix just Mi B rather just |
| 12766s | drop straight back down I don't think |
| 12768s | the May is ready for that at all had a |
| 12770s | slight blooper but Columbia still in a |
| 12772s | power position yeah a little bit of a a |
| 12774s | Custer there with the uh the immortality |
| 12777s | field look like you know just kind of |
| 12779s | could be wor could have been |
| 12782s | could imortality field basically |
| 12785s | is uh but does not matter does not |
| 12788s | impact the fight whatsoever as columia |
| 12791s | gets rolling blizzard here coming up |
| 12793s | nothing on the other side I mean you're |
| 12795s | in a Columbia's in a spot where they can |
| 12796s | finish the |
| 12798s | map blizzard here do you bait them into |
| 12800s | the small room and go for a blizzard yes |
| 12802s | you do c going to drop it down now it's |
| 12803s | not eaten up by Hyer at all there's |
| 12805s | going to be so many players caught in |
| 12806s | this there no way hysteria can back away |
| 12808s | from that there was a kinetic grasp but |
| 12810s | Cersei cleverly makes sure the blizzard |
| 12812s | is past the sigma's model and away from |
| 12815s | that hit box and now you have that |
| 12817s | massive combo yet again right you have |
| 12819s | that flux plus the artillery strike |
| 12823s | coming up here in a situation where |
| 12824s | Mexico may just need to like run onto |
| 12827s | the the barrier right just any type of |
| 12829s | star this has not been close so far |
| 12832s | speculative use here of the super Gomez |
| 12835s | oh there it is again and the immortality |
| 12838s | fill points save you because it is |
| 12839s | contacted by the mort strikes first it |
| 12842s | gets blown up and then the players |
| 12844s | trying to shelter under it are removed |
| 12846s | the Wombo Combo pays off and now mitv |
| 12848s | walks into the next fight with a sound |
| 12849s | barrier available |
| 12852s | so they're getting ready for uh Modern |
| 12853s | Warfare 3 artillery strikes coming down |
| 12858s | Mak a sound barrier here H doing a nice |
| 12860s | job there just staying alive on the |
| 12862s | outside trying to build that |
| 12863s | be's that here's that be coming up now |
| 12866s | at Matrix available for hug this is |
| 12867s | still very scary look how close the |
| 12869s | bodies and all of Mex getting forced |
| 12871s | into the back corner Angel going for a |
| 12873s | defensive m strike if I'm not mistaken |
| 12875s | and that is a stunning accretion |
| 12876s | catching aeria in midair hug in position |
| 12879s | to keep the rest of colia top po up now |
| 12881s | drama might be out of the piit but super |
| 12883s | Gomez is still looking fine the sigma's |
| 12885s | healthy But Here Comes pet H gets run |
| 12888s | down there mble to find the kill in the |
| 12890s | end and finally Columbia slowed up you |
| 12893s | can't get any closer to the end of the |
| 12894s | map though and it is a long this would |
| 12896s | be the runback of all run backs is uh |
| 12901s | 126 M for columia but you still got 4 |
| 12904s | minutes so still a ton of time available |
| 12908s | for Mexico as they go this is |
| 12910s | interesting cuz Mexico goes to a comp I |
| 12912s | mean I didn't think like Genji Tracer |
| 12913s | right but uh they go to a comp that I |
| 12916s | thought maybe Columbia would trying to |
| 12917s | do something a little bit more know Fast |
| 12919s | Pace with the Doom in the |
| 12922s | mix Mexico setting up in tube here the |
| 12925s | Tracer Genji play with the doomfist now |
| 12927s | Mexico realizing they cannot hang in a |
| 12930s | sigma mirror on this |
| 12931s | map St does at least have that medial |
| 12934s | strike available but another Cersei |
| 12935s | blizzard could really throw a wrinkle in |
| 12937s | this here comes the blade from trobo can |
| 12939s | you get purchased no immortality field |
| 12941s | is enough now but hisia drops on in gets |
| 12944s | rid of drummer will be the last one |
| 12946s | standing now as colia once more Tak an L |
| 12949s | yeah and Columbia ends up using their |
| 12950s | blizzard there right so uh end up |
| 12952s | throwing the blizzard in didn't get |
| 12953s | anything for it you'll have to have a p |
| 12956s | it they'll go back and bring trouble |
| 12957s | back into the |
| 12959s | fight ant Matrix here doesn't really do |
| 12962s | much for Mexico in the sense that like |
| 12964s | nobody else is really kind of like |
| 12965s | firing through it uh you know besides |
| 12968s | probably a little bit of a boost in |
| 12971s | healing resources but when here and you |
| 12973s | get this checkpoint you're kind of back |
| 12976s | in |
| 12977s | it Angel V |
| 12979s | looking the pulse bomb |
| 12981s | here dude there's no way Colombia can |
| 12984s | lose this I |
| 12985s | mean |
| 12987s | they the Trac does have to be respected |
| 12989s | but it's a gravic flux here oh the SI |
| 12991s | over the wall all right no connect there |
| 12993s | sound barer was in play for mix great |
| 12995s | response to what could have been a a |
| 12997s | frustrating Tracer Al Columbia now back |
| 12999s | in the hot sea |
| 13001s | and here's the brutal part with push in |
| 13003s | that like Columbia wins that one fight |
| 13006s | it basically erases those like two three |
| 13008s | fights in a row that Mexico had won like |
| 13010s | they're basically starting at scratch |
| 13012s | right it's just extremely punishing uh |
| 13015s | especially now you know right at 2 |
| 13017s | minutes off the clock from the last time |
| 13019s | Colombia had control of the bot as you |
| 13022s | Mexico you're going to need to win three |
| 13024s | four fights in a row to get back to you |
| 13026s | know a in a spot where you can seriously |
| 13029s | you know get that bot over the line no |
| 13031s | flux to guarantee connection with the |
| 13034s | basan ultimate so drama just throws it |
| 13035s | out sub Gomez under extreme pressure now |
| 13038s | and hysteria looking extremely healthy |
| 13040s | sound barrier from pet an attempt there |
| 13042s | and here is the power of Genji up |
| 13045s | against the Bastion great deflect there |
| 13046s | Trux just removing drama from the |
| 13049s | equation and they'll be switching over |
| 13050s | towards the Tracer now going for |
| 13051s | something a little bit different maybe |
| 13052s | Columbia hybriding up their composition |
| 13055s | to try and deal with this |
| 13057s | diet so Mexico will end up winning so |
| 13060s | let let's let's try and plot a course |
| 13062s | for Mexico to come back right you're |
| 13064s | going to get the bot all the way back |
| 13066s | here you don't have that first |
| 13067s | checkpoint here uh you're looking at |
| 13070s | potentially winning a fight off of |
| 13072s | nanoade right you know potentially uh |
| 13074s | know ideally you win it with just the |
| 13076s | blade right you can kind of like save |
| 13078s | that Nano but nanoade potential here |
| 13081s | okay get this one out get a kill here |
| 13083s | this is huge getting Super G versus |
| 13085s | massive the extra kills all really just |
| 13087s | a garnish there for Trux so there's the |
| 13090s | now we're plotting I guess our course |
| 13092s | here that's a big fight win for Mexico |
| 13093s | they only have a pulse for the next |
| 13095s | though yeah and they end up using the |
| 13097s | meteor strike is that like a you know |
| 13098s | metor strike with like a pulse spot |
| 13100s | maybe slow some players down like you |
| 13102s | know an interesting way to kind of use |
| 13103s | it but really |
| 13106s | oh gets a pick but he actually I think |
| 13108s | got hit with an accretion there uh when |
| 13111s | we're on that overhead map for just a |
| 13112s | brief second it said stunned so looks |
| 13114s | like he actually got hit with the |
| 13115s | accretion I mean that is brutal because |
| 13117s | the the win condition there is to |
| 13119s | actually have him get a kill with a |
| 13120s | pulse bomb like anybody is good enough |
| 13123s | uh so to not get anything and then have |
| 13126s | the the bot now head back into the the |
| 13128s | other side of the map that is brutal |
| 13130s | like worst case scenario you have |
| 13131s | everything now of your Columbia gtic |
| 13133s | flux both support ultimates and a |
| 13134s | blizzard to play with 20 seconds a very |
| 13137s | unlikely scenario for Mexico but this is |
| 13139s | where the climb begins if they want to |
| 13141s | stay alive in this series good a crean |
| 13142s | connection on CHX but instantly healed |
| 13144s | up here comes the gravitic flux and Momo |
| 13146s | was the only target for that ability |
| 13148s | Anna wiped off the face of the Earth |
| 13151s | here still no blade to work with pet |
| 13152s | able to definitely avoid the accretion |
| 13154s | but you don't have the staying power |
| 13156s | left if you are this team Mexico squad |
| 13158s | and it's just palad attempting to try |
| 13160s | and stall things out some presence |
| 13161s | maintain over the bot but not nearly |
| 13163s | enough an Val forced to Blink away there |
| 13166s | no recall available hysteria coming in a |
| 13167s | try and give it a tickle Cersei wants to |
| 13169s | move up power block here for the |
| 13170s | doomfist to buy a bit of extra time |
| 13172s | overtime still being held on to but |
| 13174s | Angel Val's out of blinks they can't get |
| 13175s | away D eyes out there for the Tracer and |
| 13178s | aor again wants the stall TR is back |
| 13180s | here genus ter least is able to find the |
| 13182s | kill on the M but it's not enough Here |
| 13185s | Comes Lucio once more palet throws |
| 13187s | himself at the objective but it will be |
| 13189s | Colombia prevailing and moving on to |
| 13192s | take a win here in this matchup of |
| 13194s | Central American teams oh man as this |
| 13197s | goes right down to the wies now Colombia |
| 13200s | obviously an extremely impressive like |
| 13203s | long distance push I do I feel like |
| 13205s | Mexico had a chance man like Angel he |
| 13208s | doesn't get hit with that accretion and |
| 13209s | ends up dying there I mean you have a |
| 13212s | you're a PO spom away uh from being like |
| 13216s | what like a junk fight at the end of the |
| 13218s | the map from completing it in the result |
| 13221s | going the other direction so uh although |
| 13223s | Columbia wins it feels like these two |
| 13224s | teams so evenly matched so interesting |
| 13227s | as well we thought that Colombia might |
| 13228s | actually stray away from a map that |
| 13230s | necessitated a s comp and you can play |
| 13233s | different things on new Queen Street but |
| 13235s | right now on this particular patch that |
| 13236s | seemed to be the way to go and bizarrely |
| 13239s | this time it was Mexico who struggled in |
| 13241s | the mirror who ended up switching off |
| 13243s | trying to go for the doomfist approach |
| 13245s | fascinating interplay between these two |
| 13247s | rosters and it's a tough loss especially |
| 13249s | for for Mexico I think because they've |
| 13251s | already gone up against Finland their |
| 13253s | next opponent is going to be South Korea |
| 13255s | very very hard to now come out of this |
| 13257s | group with a win yeah difficult team |
| 13260s | obviously to go up against there with |
| 13261s | your uh final match if you're Mexico but |
| 13265s | uh put up a really good fight here uh |
| 13267s | against Columbia although off to a |
| 13269s | really uh rough start there on Queen |
| 13271s | Street give up 127 M I think or 126 like |
| 13274s | still uh had an opportunity to |
| 13277s | potentially get this one really close |
| 13279s | towards the end uh it's just push like |
| 13282s | if you give up that much push of the |
| 13284s | barrier early on you you need to win |
| 13286s | like four fights in a row to get that |
| 13288s | back and they just couldn't do it and |
| 13289s | the road ahead for Colombia includes a |
| 13291s | matchup against Finland that might be |
| 13293s | one to decide second place Colombia will |
| 13295s | have to step it up in a big way though |
| 13297s | if they want to have any chance of |
| 13299s | qualifying for blz on we're can head |
| 13301s | over to our desk to break this one down |
| 13302s | a fantastic competitive matchup between |
| 13305s | Mexico and Colombia sees an exciting |
| 13309s | [Music] |
| 13313s | conclusion all right welcome back |
| 13314s | everybody so is so Frozen again so it's |
| 13317s | going to be me and |
| 13319s | Johnny oh all right it's it's all good |
| 13322s | all good you and me Danny let's break it |
| 13323s | down yeah no yeah yeah we got this we |
| 13325s | got this I mean this was uh of course uh |
| 13328s | Colombia getting the win but I mean it |
| 13330s | was it was I I would say it was a very |
| 13332s | close M I think Mexico put up a very |
| 13334s | good fight but at the end it just wasn't |
| 13336s | enough uh for them to get the win right |
| 13338s | I mean look this was this was the first |
| 13340s | three map series we' had so far in the |
| 13342s | World Cup group s right so it was really |
| 13345s | entertaining it was kind of what we |
| 13346s | wanted to see right we wanted to see a |
| 13348s | back and forth match up and both teams |
| 13349s | battling it out and it was a really |
| 13352s | entertaining match I mean they were |
| 13353s | really evenly matched you know starting |
| 13355s | off on Samoa um it okay well I I can't |
| 13361s | see soe so she's just talking into my |
| 13363s | head but look coming out coming out here |
| 13366s | I do think that it was uh a really good |
| 13367s | showing from Colombia playing the sigma |
| 13369s | composition I think that super gas has |
| 13371s | some great fluxes you know here and then |
| 13373s | later on push as well combining with |
| 13375s | drummer on the Bastion uh you know |
| 13378s | that's a very powerful combination you |
| 13379s | combine the flux with Bastion uh you |
| 13381s | just ensures getting some kills right so |
| 13384s | I think it was a good showing from |
| 13386s | Colombia there really there was no |
| 13387s | player that really stood out by |
| 13388s | themselves it was a team effort was a |
| 13390s | team coming together playing a May |
| 13392s | composition with the sigma and getting |
| 13394s | the job done so a great showing from the |
| 13396s | entire team to be honest yeah also I |
| 13398s | from what I saw I think Colombia just |
| 13399s | came out with fors like they they |
| 13401s | weren't scared you know they they wanted |
| 13403s | to keep the pace moving and like they |
| 13404s | were like really committed to every |
| 13406s | fight and I think that really made a |
| 13408s | difference uh for throughout the whole |
| 13410s | series as well and of course uh the very |
| 13413s | last map this map uh new Queen Street |
| 13416s | you know they made it all the way to the |
| 13417s | end I don't know how far they got was it |
| 13420s | they're like literally at the very end |
| 13422s | when Mexico somehow yeah somehow stopped |
| 13425s | them but then after that they had to win |
| 13427s | so many more uh Team fights but they |
| 13429s | just couldn't uh close it out so it was |
| 13431s | Colombia getting the win at the end yeah |
| 13435s | that was a that was a good beat as I |
| 13436s | think Columbia just the team in general |
| 13438s | they it was a team effort Johnny like |
| 13440s | you said yeah definitely roll s great |
| 13444s | job to Columbia Mexico unfortunately uh |
| 13448s | you know two losses right now yeah soe |
| 13452s | are you are you back I was back through |
| 13454s | the through the entire thing I just |
| 13456s | didn't want to you know throw anyone off |
| 13458s | uh by surprise speak I can I may speak |
| 13461s | and so I shall no but honestly one thing |
| 13464s | I just keep on wanting to hammer home |
| 13466s | about this Colombian team is just |
| 13469s | imagine you're playing throughout the |
| 13472s | qualifier with eqo you have that star |
| 13474s | power on your Ruster and then your head |
| 13476s | coach has to sub in last minute to |
| 13479s | actually |
| 13481s | you know take that space and yet that |
| 13483s | team still looks like such a well-oiled |
| 13485s | machine they are on the same page |
| 13488s | they've been performing so so very well |
| 13490s | once again of course shout out to Mexico |
| 13492s | love what we saw from them on New K new |
| 13495s | Queen Street that would have been the |
| 13496s | run back of all run backs if they would |
| 13498s | have done that one so very exciting |
| 13501s | until the very end but it just could not |
| 13503s | get done in at the very end so yeah |
| 13507s | tough L loss for Mexico but a great |
| 13509s | performance and another great showing |
| 13511s | from Team Colombia they're passing the |
| 13513s | vibe check they are getting the victory |
| 13515s | today as well which is so exciting and |
| 13518s | now our next match will feature the team |
| 13520s | from China and Hong Kong and we will |
| 13522s | break it all down for you after this |
| 13528s | break |
| 13531s | first any deals any |

| 13747s | hello beautiful people this is day two |
| 13749s | of our round robbing group stage and we |
| 13752s | are getting ready for our fourth game of |
| 13755s | the day welcome back one and all Zoe |
| 13758s | here as well as Danny and Johnny and we |
| 13761s | are embarking on the journey during this |
| 13763s | group stage to find out which eight team |
| 13766s | will make it to Bisson forward at the |
| 13768s | playoffs not only are they fighting for |
| 13771s | the honor and Glory no we are also |
| 13774s | looking at a price pool which is |
| 13777s | crowdfunded so up until the final day we |
| 13780s | do not know what uh what size this bag |
| 13784s | is going to take on and what the winner |
| 13786s | will be taking on but one thing we know |
| 13788s | is that every single player |
| 13789s | participating in the O World Cup that |
| 13792s | means every single player out of those |
| 13794s | 43 teams will get a share of it which is |
| 13796s | just so exciting let's take a look at |
| 13798s | our standings so we can get a better |
| 13801s | picture of what happened thus far it's |
| 13803s | only been one day of play yes but each |
| 13806s | day is stacked we had six matches |
| 13809s | yesterday this is the fourth for today |
| 13812s | and the only teams we have yet to see is |
| 13814s | a team from China and Team USA and you |
| 13817s | know what we're in for a treat because |
| 13819s | the team from China will be playing next |
| 13822s | as they are going up against the team |
| 13825s | from Hong Kong this is going to be very |
| 13827s | exciting because both of these teams are |
| 13829s | featuring veteran players we all know |
| 13831s | and love so let's dive in let's take a |
| 13834s | look at those starting rusters starting |
| 13837s | with Hong Kong they unfortunately took a |
| 13839s | loss in their first match yesterday what |
| 13842s | did we learn from their performance yeah |
| 13845s | it was a tough matchup yesterday for |
| 13846s | them against Thailand I do think that |
| 13849s | they played a bit too passively and they |
| 13850s | couldn't really get going they had some |
| 13852s | some individual great moments on Samoa |
| 13854s | for example but they're obviously |
| 13856s | changing things up here a little bit um |
| 13858s | I were expecting them to play kurami |
| 13860s | here on the soour like we're seeing in |
| 13862s | these highlights right here but instead |
| 13863s | they're going to sub in despair let's |
| 13865s | see what they got cooking in that regard |
| 13867s | but if they come out you you look at |
| 13869s | these highlights like shaan and Kumi |
| 13871s | having like pretty good moments um I do |
| 13873s | think that if they play a bit more |
| 13874s | aggressively and they take some space |
| 13876s | and free up their damage players they |
| 13877s | could put out the pretty good |
| 13878s | performance today and Danny they will be |
| 13880s | playing against a team from China we |
| 13882s | have been very excited to get a first |
| 13884s | look at this team who do you have your |
| 13885s | eyes on oh I mean team from China has |
| 13889s | always been a Powerhouse in the |
| 13890s | OverWatch World Cup right I think and |
| 13891s | they're filled with so many great |
| 13893s | players if I had to choose one I don't |
| 13895s | know this is hard chai Le guu monk links |
| 13898s | that they're all great I'm going to have |
| 13900s | to say guy I'm a big gu fan he made he |
| 13903s | made a he made a name for himself with |
| 13904s | this Winston and his Primal blade right |
| 13907s | uh in OverWatch World Cup so I'm looking |
| 13908s | out for |
| 13909s | GU I think you're not alone on this uh |
| 13912s | as you said historically uh the team |
| 13915s | from China has been placing in that top |
| 13918s | Echelon in the O World Cup they came |
| 13920s | second two years in a row so obviously |
| 13923s | they're going to be so very eager to |
| 13925s | take the trophy home this time around |
| 13927s | let's see if they can get it done first |
| 13929s | thing first though let's look at our |
| 13931s | predictions for this one I had to go |
| 13934s | with the team from China I do think I |
| 13937s | know exactly what I can expect from |
| 13939s | those players they've all had an |
| 13941s | incredible year in their professional |
| 13943s | careers and I think they're going to |
| 13945s | round it out with that OverWatch World |
| 13947s | Cup placement maybe number one this year |
| 13950s | uh I'm on the same page as soe I with a |
| 13953s | team from China you know they got big |
| 13954s | names it's a lot of players that we've |
| 13957s | seen uh and I think I'm you know I I |
| 13960s | think it's going to be China team team |
| 13962s | from China yeah I agree with you guys I |
| 13965s | mean they are one of the favorites to |
| 13966s | win the entire tournament uh we have |
| 13969s | we're playing this week so um I do think |
| 13971s | that in this matchup they have to be |
| 13973s | favored absolutely let us know what you |
| 13976s | think of course on socials #w c2023 |
| 13980s | we're now heading into a quick break as |
| 13982s | we are getting ready for this next game |

| 14413s | welcome back everybody to the 2023 |
| 14415s | OverWatch World Cup our group C here |
| 14418s | it's starting to take shape we've |
| 14420s | already seen plenty from Thailand now |
| 14421s | after their couple of games but as a |
| 14423s | team in this group that we've yet to see |
| 14425s | take the field the M might be the most |
| 14428s | most known quantity for us here in the |
| 14430s | World Cup based on previous performance |
| 14433s | yeah it's uh the team from China right I |
| 14435s | mean they have some tremendous players |
| 14437s | who have really you know made their name |
| 14439s | in just the history of OverWatch right |
| 14441s | not even you know outside of OverWatch |
| 14443s | World Cup and the pro level so uh |
| 14445s | excited to see them play today and as |
| 14447s | was pointed out on the desk we have two |
| 14449s | consecutive second place finishes for |
| 14451s | the team from China they've been so |
| 14453s | close each and every time uh we expect |
| 14456s | to see this roster go a long way this |
| 14457s | year last time of course it was a a |
| 14459s | tough loss back in 2019 at the hands of |
| 14461s | the United States there live at BlizzCon |
| 14464s | incredible atmosphere the crowd was |
| 14466s | really behind that game and of course if |
| 14468s | make it there this year expect it to be |
| 14470s | no different Hong Kong on the other side |
| 14472s | of things didn't show us a whole lot |
| 14473s | from Thailand right a very one-sided |
| 14475s | game in which as it was also noted on |
| 14477s | the desk they were pretty passive pretty |
| 14479s | reluctant to take the initiative up |
| 14480s | against a team like this team from China |
| 14482s | you had better be ready to take some |
| 14484s | control over the game or it will be over |
| 14485s | before you can blink yeah and uh Hong |
| 14488s | Kong with IRP in the starting lineup |
| 14490s | right now they also have mango on the |
| 14493s | team which a lot of uh people from |
| 14494s | previous World Cups for remember this is |
| 14496s | fourth OverWatch World Cup it's got to |
| 14498s | be like one of of the the most uh |
| 14500s | represented players out of all of you |
| 14502s | know the OverWatch World Cups we've had |
| 14503s | to be on a team for four times is a a |
| 14506s | huge accomplishment yeah I mean on the |
| 14509s | side of the team from China shy leave |
| 14510s | and gue are attending their third |
| 14513s | OverWatch World Cup again this team is |
| 14516s | uh very well proved at the top levels of |
| 14518s | OverWatch to expect to see them come out |
| 14520s | strong here seeing Shai on hit scan |
| 14523s | makes me happy in the Widowmaker again |
| 14525s | it's not the riskiest pick we've seen |
| 14526s | quite a few teams go for this here and |
| 14528s | Kong had better have a way to put |
| 14529s | pressure on this position yeah and and |
| 14532s | gue is known really for like his Winston |
| 14534s | play right pretty good Reinhardt as well |
| 14537s | uh if they want to play aggressive |
| 14538s | Winston's not really the meta right now |
| 14539s | with a lot of the high you know damage |
| 14541s | heroes in the meta so we'll see how he |
| 14543s | goes on Doom Hong Kong looking to try |
| 14545s | and close the gap here with this junker |
| 14547s | Queen base composition one of the few |
| 14548s | teams looking to leverage that here shy |
| 14551s | now will be accosted break Le and El |
| 14553s | leave has already dealt with despair so |
| 14554s | it's just the Traer up for Hong Kong IP |
| 14557s | they're having to try and fight away |
| 14558s | coping a lot of pressure as guay comes |
| 14560s | in with that doomfist and yeah it is |
| 14562s | pretty one-sided to start off this map |
| 14564s | first team to control ruins will be the |
| 14566s | team from CH yeah and the pressure is |
| 14568s | really difficult to deal with right |
| 14570s | because uh Shai you have to deal with |
| 14573s | him on the Widowmaker but you have leave |
| 14575s | in your backline on Tracer you know one |
| 14577s | of the best players in the world where |
| 14580s | uh splits your team can't really focus |
| 14582s | on one of them uh makes it pretty |
| 14585s | difficult and we're going to have a |
| 14585s | Genji swap I like this to get a little |
| 14587s | bit more verticality to train challenge |
| 14588s | that Widowmaker yeah but how much backup |
| 14592s | is Shion going to have here what a |
| 14593s | biotic grenade there from monk with some |
| 14595s | of the most filthy plays we've seen this |
| 14598s | year on that particular hero nothing |
| 14601s | really that Hong Kong can do to answer |
| 14602s | that here pretty tough for the Jun of |
| 14604s | Queen will just get surrounded and Shai |
| 14606s | has layers upon layers upon layers of |
| 14608s | abstraction and protection here they can |
| 14610s | just take their time and find shots like |
| 14612s | that that's a head shot on enemy Genji |
| 14614s | by the way te from China are having a |
| 14616s | comfortable start yeah in the comp Army |
| 14618s | I mean a really nice shot there and he's |
| 14620s | got the infight the comp here from uh |
| 14622s | you know Hong Kong like they they have |
| 14623s | to play group together right in in it's |
| 14626s | very difficult especially here on ruins |
| 14627s | when you're trying to make your way back |
| 14629s | towards the point it's like just like |
| 14630s | really close corridors and that allows |
| 14633s | guwe to get big value out of seismic |
| 14635s | slam get those big empowered punches uh |
| 14637s | makes it difficult for them to even come |
| 14639s | out the last time they tried to make a |
| 14640s | push and we actually saw like a real you |
| 14641s | know fight uh it looked like gu had got |
| 14644s | like two or three players with a stun |
| 14646s | finally some from Hong Kong sh gets |
| 14648s | caught out by a biotic or but Le was |
| 14650s | waiting in the wings with a pul fromom |
| 14651s | the whole time and never really had to |
| 14653s | make use of it Hong Kong finally get |
| 14655s | themselves into a position at least to |
| 14657s | dictate the pace of play but end up |
| 14659s | losing out when it comes to overall |
| 14660s | coordination Goose finishes arri K off |
| 14663s | here and H Kong again evicted they're |
| 14665s | going to have one more chance to have a |
| 14666s | crack at this they never could flip yeah |
| 14669s | a Shai goes over to the 76 to get back |
| 14671s | in a little bit faster but also he can |
| 14674s | feel a lot of that pressure that's |
| 14676s | coming on in where now now you have |
| 14678s | Genji in Doom all making a play okay big |
| 14682s | solo call Essence play fromp here |
| 14684s | looking at pressure back towards the |
| 14685s | point bit of extra healing for r3k after |
| 14687s | the doomfist switch here Shai looks |
| 14689s | completely unbothered by the Doom right |
| 14690s | in front of them going a medial Strike |
| 14692s | Up To The High Ground for GU way and |
| 14693s | Shion has been taken down IP trying to |
| 14696s | keep some capture pressure on the point |
| 14698s | but eventually has to get involved with |
| 14699s | the healings needed most shy that was |
| 14701s | ready to receive there's no fade |
| 14703s | available for IRP whatsoever and the |
| 14705s | team from China with a very strong way |
| 14707s | to open this series 100 to zero Hong |
| 14710s | Kong tries to make some adjustments |
| 14712s | there comp wise to you know make a play |
| 14714s | for shy and uh really you know gets uh |
| 14718s | they weren't able to really access him |
| 14720s | in the backline anyway even when he |
| 14721s | switched from uh know the Widow right uh |
| 14724s | know maybe got him a little bit scared |
| 14725s | got him uh know going over to the 76 and |
| 14728s | once he was on Soldier there was nothing |
| 14731s | they could uh really do to really access |
| 14732s | him right has that Sprint the ability to |
| 14734s | just get out of Harm's Way I did like |
| 14736s | there was a moment there from Hong Kong |
| 14737s | where they were able to comeand shout |
| 14738s | push in I don't know how shy Force foul |
| 14741s | of a biotic or sometimes that happens |
| 14744s | awesome all skill fromp but essentially |
| 14747s | you know the team from China are able to |
| 14749s | leave leave so entrenched as Hong Kong |
| 14752s | try and push out of Spawn he doesn't |
| 14754s | really have to part with the pulse for |
| 14756s | at all there he's just able to focus the |
| 14757s | individual players down as they sort of |
| 14759s | trickle out Hong Kong really have to |
| 14760s | play as a unit here they're going to |
| 14762s | stay with the juner queen setup yeah |
| 14764s | it'll be Echo for both sides uh which no |
| 14766s | Echo obviously pretty strong hero in the |
| 14769s | we see a lot here on well asly nice |
| 14773s | focusing beam is uh the one hero that's |
| 14775s | usually obviously really had to be |
| 14778s | really strong against the echo is Tracer |
| 14780s | so you see both teams also bringing in |
| 14782s | that Tracer try and pest through these |
| 14784s | Echo out of the sky but the team from |
| 14786s | China taking the point first and me it's |
| 14788s | important right for leave to try and |
| 14789s | zero in on shion's position pretty early |
| 14792s | on H you offload those cool Downs get |
| 14794s | the burst damage out and this is yeah |
| 14797s | this is getting rough here for Kong |
| 14798s | trying to make their way out of Spawn |
| 14800s | but the team from China take a really |
| 14801s | far forward position and able to |
| 14803s | leverage like a ptic grenade thrown into |
| 14805s | Hong Kong spawn it's tough to play out |
| 14808s | from yeah and I wonder if uh you maybe |
| 14811s | have to switch off the queen here to try |
| 14812s | and uh know get out right because uh |
| 14815s | Queen you know you have the shout right |
| 14816s | to be able to kind of like speed |
| 14817s | yourself up give yourself a little bit |
| 14818s | of help but can't really peel or you |
| 14821s | know do anything for the rest of the |
| 14822s | team so might have to make a change here |
| 14824s | in terms of |
| 14825s | tank shy constantly in here and crazy |
| 14829s | tries to go for a bit of a bash there |
| 14831s | shy not too bothered by it plenty of |
| 14833s | healing coming in again monk has a |
| 14835s | really safe |
| 14837s | perch attempt there I think link are not |
| 14840s | feeling the bite of that ax though r3k |
| 14842s | is forced back once more tries a pulse |
| 14845s | bomb here throws it on it oh my goodness |
| 14847s | it looks like uh looks like gue actually |
| 14849s | uh you know and M crazy actually like |
| 14852s | collided into each other there uh and |
| 14854s | then the pulse bom actually just lands |
| 14856s | in him crazy on the ground |
| 14858s | uh yeah yeah being knocked down there |
| 14860s | wasn't much that could be done cuz from |
| 14861s | Shai's perspective I'm not even sure |
| 14863s | where he's trying to stick that pulse |
| 14864s | from um perhaps on the pita so I think |
| 14867s | sh probably gets what he came uh what he |
| 14869s | wanted anyway n here for M that's going |
| 14872s | over towards Goose some serious |
| 14874s | aggression now and again trying to make |
| 14875s | it harder for I'm crazy |
| 14876s | to swag can't be serious was it the |
| 14880s | knife that threw him off course that's |
| 14882s | unclear either way leave dupes the |
| 14883s | junker Queen and now going to take the |
| 14885s | fight straight to r3k definitely |
| 14887s | avoiding |
| 14889s | Rampage oh oh wait Rampage coming in |
| 14891s | here from Le does he connect yeah with |
| 14893s | r3k mean that is huge right you're going |
| 14895s | to have the break here with rally not |
| 14897s | going to be able to kind of Fight You |
| 14899s | know the remaining players you know |
| 14900s | links are keeping everybody topped up |
| 14903s | yeah this is uh probably how we drew it |
| 14906s | up a little bit Matt the team from China |
| 14907s | are season veterans at the highest |
| 14909s | levels of OverWatch that you can find |
| 14912s | and we knew that it would be tough for |
| 14913s | Hong Kong to put a scratch on them here |
| 14916s | couple of interesting moments over the |
| 14917s | course of these two Rous but is very |
| 14919s | very much the show for the team from |
| 14921s | China Jalan again feeling the rough end |
| 14924s | of that focusing beam and will be an |
| 14925s | overtime here there won't be much more |
| 14927s | to be said about Elios as the team from |
| 14929s | China start with a 1 to zero lead yeah I |
| 14932s | think it's really difficult because you |
| 14933s | want to match the speed of that type of |
| 14935s | composition right especially like |
| 14937s | doomfist uh you know Echo Tracer uh but |
| 14941s | if you you really can't kind of play at |
| 14943s | that speed it becomes very difficult to |
| 14946s | contend with that especially when you're |
| 14947s | not running something like that's a |
| 14949s | little bit more dive oriented of their |
| 14950s | own so uh gue and Shai go crazy there in |
| 14953s | that first map yeah let's look back over |
| 14955s | for a briefly not a whole lot to see but |
| 14957s | I kind of want to ask the question gu |
| 14959s | leave shy monk Linka how do you how do |
| 14961s | you sort of beat this you know what I |
| 14963s | mean where do you even start because |
| 14965s | it's not just like you know great |
| 14966s | coordination great individual uh you |
| 14968s | know prowess great calling great |
| 14971s | awareness great you know I mean so you |
| 14973s | either need to you either need to match |
| 14975s | the pace of play which would be like a |
| 14977s | doomfist space composition or really |
| 14980s | slow it down and play like some like |
| 14981s | Sigma you know maybe you do like Sigma |
| 14983s | Baptist with the the uh Lucio in the mix |
| 14986s | right I know give yourself a little bit |
| 14988s | of Mobility there but I I feel like kind |
| 14989s | of like ending somewhere in the middle |
| 14991s | where like I feel like queen sits where |
| 14993s | queen wants to like brawl out a little |
| 14995s | bit more right can't really can't really |
| 14997s | poke can't really dive I feel like |
| 14999s | that's where you'll see pretty poor |
| 15000s | results yeah fair enough maybe that sort |
| 15003s | of rush composition finds itself in the |
| 15005s | mid-range between the sigma setups and |
| 15007s | the D compositions with doomfist and |
| 15009s | you're not doing either of those things |
| 15012s | uh nearly as well uh as what the team |
| 15015s | from China can do I like that maybe |
| 15017s | focus on one sort of end of the spectrum |
| 15019s | or the other if you're Hong Kong I mean |
| 15021s | they have a chance to pick a map that |
| 15023s | might lend and might give us a bit of |
| 15024s | insight into what their strategy will be |
| 15027s | again uh it's their last map pick so |
| 15029s | they're going to have to they're going |
| 15031s | to have to make it work and find a way |
| 15032s | to stand even on an individual |
| 15034s | fundamental level against these |
| 15036s | incredible players from the team from |
| 15037s | China Yeah by I think this is a great |
| 15040s | map pick right uh being able to |
| 15042s | potentially slow the game down here you |
| 15044s | know with some Sigma base compositions I |
| 15046s | think uh you really challenge that dive |
| 15049s | that's going to come out of yeah like |
| 15051s | that circuit Royal being chosen here by |
| 15053s | Hong Kong after a slow start in this |
| 15055s | series perhaps they'll find a way to |
| 15057s | start to put some pressure on their |
| 15058s | opponents as the team from China look to |
| 15060s | be pretty strong out of the |
| 15063s | [Music] |
| 15063s | [Applause] |

| 15217s | [Music] |
| 15227s | [Music] |
| 15233s | [Music] |
| 15247s | it's the raw pace of play from the team |
| 15250s | from China that really stuns Hong Kong |
| 15253s | as we see a very quick first map of ilos |
| 15256s | gushr on the doomfist and again we had |
| 15258s | both leave and Shai take turns at tracer |
| 15261s | on every level it looked like the team |
| 15262s | from China was just a little bit |
| 15264s | stronger yes as uh they play at a really |
| 15266s | fast pace you know with that doomfist |
| 15269s | composition uh we do have some subs here |
| 15271s | so mango ji like I was talking about |
| 15273s | earlier right know fantastic player |
| 15275s | who's played in a bunch of the over |
| 15277s | watch World Cups in K come in for Hong |
| 15280s | Kong all right mango G looking to lend |
| 15283s | that veterancy here to a team that's |
| 15285s | definitely found themselves in in hot |
| 15287s | water pretty early on we haven't seen |
| 15289s | anything from the team from China so far |
| 15290s | in this group but we knew their players |
| 15293s | so well having seen them play at the top |
| 15294s | level already but we discussed about how |
| 15297s | you play against this right we saw a |
| 15299s | rush style composition from Hong Kong on |
| 15301s | ilios you know a comp that's you know |
| 15303s | neither very very slow neither super |
| 15305s | fast all our dive so C Royal might see |
| 15308s | Hong Kong go for something a little bit |
| 15309s | more on the slower side of the spectrum |
| 15311s | and maybe give an opportunity to find |
| 15313s | some advantages here but they're going |
| 15315s | to be attacking first I think the team |
| 15317s | from China are elected to defend so |
| 15319s | we're going to have to see some real |
| 15320s | prowess from Hong Kong to see them move |
| 15322s | out of the gates so uh looks like we got |
| 15325s | a little bit of a pause here potentially |
| 15327s | know mango GI just getting getting the |
| 15329s | VC working here uh but the thing that'll |
| 15332s | be interesting is is like typically he's |
| 15334s | like a uh you know very good Flex |
| 15336s | support player where where uh you look |
| 15339s | like are you going to play Baptist like |
| 15340s | we've seen teams play Zen here where I |
| 15343s | think the Zen gives like a a pretty |
| 15345s | static dive Target there uh for you know |
| 15348s | guu and shy and leave to really go after |
| 15351s | which like might be a bit dangerous so |
| 15353s | I'm curious to see what uh they have |
| 15355s | mango ji pilot would you like to see |
| 15357s | that would you like to see the team from |
| 15358s | China play Dive on a map like this I |
| 15361s | mean they're already they already look |
| 15363s | like they're you know pound-for-pound a |
| 15365s | much stronger roster maybe can ignore |
| 15367s | the sort of normal conventions when it |
| 15369s | comes to comparing compositions on a map |
| 15371s | like circuit Royal which we know is more |
| 15373s | commonly uh lends itself to those po |
| 15376s | well what I mean we've seen uh you know |
| 15378s | from them in the past where even When |
| 15381s | dive is not the best and even when |
| 15383s | Winston's not the best right they kind |
| 15385s | of have gue you know pilot that hero so |
| 15388s | like would it surprise me to see them uh |
| 15390s | you know play play uh like doom and |
| 15394s | whatnot probably not um looks like |
| 15396s | though at least here at the start uh |
| 15398s | coming out with guwe on Sigma so uh guwe |
| 15403s | historically is like a main tank player |
| 15405s | right you know not somebody who kind of |
| 15407s | like Pilots a lot of those like off |
| 15409s | tanks or you know however we you know |
| 15411s | used to kind of think they were off |
| 15412s | tanks now everybody in the just a |
| 15413s | regular main tank rooll uh leave and shy |
| 15416s | though on like a double you know long |
| 15418s | range hit scan damage uh should be quite |
| 15422s | effective |
| 15423s | though |
| 15424s | hello yeah I me we saw |
| 15428s | I mean the finals this year shy on the |
| 15430s | soj was just absolutely cracked it was |
| 15433s | incredible make we already saw a little |
| 15434s | bit of that from Shai on ilios it was it |
| 15437s | was frightening so Hong Kong here might |
| 15439s | look to again try and sort of match this |
| 15441s | going with you know double sniper here |
| 15444s | hitting a lot of these players in |
| 15445s | individual one versus |
| 15447s | ones yeah and uh me really tough task |
| 15451s | right coming off the bench playing the |
| 15452s | Widowmaker here going up against Shai |
| 15454s | one of the uh best hit scan players |
| 15456s | we've like ever seen in OverWatch right |
| 15458s | as uh get a jump shot there put some |
| 15461s | damage on the GU doesn't hit karumi |
| 15463s | being very careful about this angle not |
| 15465s | really swinging this widely at all just |
| 15468s | grappling up here shion's been allowed |
| 15470s | to make some decent progress here and |
| 15471s | is's able to play from the bridge for |
| 15472s | the time being as long as you know he |
| 15474s | respects the DPS from the team from |
| 15476s | China he's in a good spot to allow this |
| 15478s | Camp to move up can put a lot of Shield |
| 15481s | pressure down with that Hanzo right |
| 15483s | Force G way back and maybe just create |
| 15485s | some space where you can get top Bridge |
| 15487s | control which it looks like they've |
| 15488s | done jion still playing for that bridge |
| 15491s | here shy and leave both looking at that |
| 15493s | same angle here and G is taking a ton of |
| 15495s | damage in the front line the Discord orb |
| 15498s | there something to bear in mind |
| 15499s | obviously both tanks wearing it for the |
| 15500s | time being Shan takes a gling blow it's |
| 15503s | going to be Kumi getting the better of |
| 15504s | the shy okay now we have a five versus |
| 15506s | four Kumi starting to get a little bit |
| 15508s | more confident moving up it's only leave |
| 15510s | on the soone here monk may have to |
| 15512s | leverage some of that damage to even the |
| 15514s | score yeah well he knows that no unless |
| 15517s | yeah unless he kind of closes the Gap |
| 15519s | right you know that is a large distance |
| 15521s | advantage that the Widowmaker has over |
| 15523s | the soldier so oh some really big shots |
| 15527s | here is it's going to be a few that |
| 15529s | should give them first point yeah |
| 15531s | starting to build some confidence here |
| 15533s | are Hong Kong winning in some of those 1 |
| 15535s | V ones we're dealing with Shai and Le by |
| 15538s | the way such celebrated DPS players yeah |
| 15540s | FX here from Goose Kumi gets caught in |
| 15543s | that one so there's actually a chance |
| 15544s | for China to move up I guess team Hong |
| 15546s | Kong able to really apply enough |
| 15549s | pressure off the back of all those picks |
| 15551s | from karumi that's that's hard to watch |
| 15555s | yeah I mean really nice stuff from KY |
| 15557s | able to find a lot of those pcks but |
| 15559s | just not enough to get that first |
| 15561s | checkpoint is uh it's going to be M |
| 15564s | crazy using the amrix here just trying |
| 15565s | to back them up a little bit maybe they |
| 15567s | thought they could catch a few players |
| 15568s | you know getting quite aggressive around |
| 15570s | the corner but they don't end up getting |
| 15573s | anybody there so uh that's huge for the |
| 15575s | team from China they're going to have |
| 15576s | double support now down to a minute and |
| 15579s | 40 Kumi again takes to the skies link is |
| 15581s | going to be caught inside the FL shy |
| 15583s | response though mango dry gets taken |
| 15585s | down inight here for both Widow makers |
| 15588s | yeah mango J ended up having the |
| 15589s | Transcendence there which would have |
| 15590s | been huge right as uh they end up |
| 15592s | getting L up with that R they take him |
| 15595s | out oh sh so aggressive Ki in deep |
| 15598s | trouble leave up catching it with a head |
| 15600s | shot absolute filth here from Le the soj |
| 15603s | now starting to leave more than just a |
| 15605s | mark and Hong Kong down to 1 minute and |
| 15608s | 10 |
| 15609s | seconds double infight out from those |
| 15611s | widows here at least there's a |
| 15612s | Transcendence to work with for mango |
| 15614s | driver but that doesn't do Squad if shy |
| 15616s | is going to be hitting those heads same |
| 15617s | for leave yeah they just got to I think |
| 15619s | that'll be the hardest part right is |
| 15621s | getting him near the fight without him |
| 15622s | taking significant damage and |
| 15624s | potentially either forcing out the |
| 15626s | transcendant or taking him out right Zen |
| 15628s | such a glass Cannon of a hero charion |
| 15631s | again wants to quickly reassume that |
| 15633s | bridge position I'm quite sure he feels |
| 15636s | the pressure now as the is ticking down |
| 15638s | to 40 seconds a dragon strike here this |
| 15639s | is going to provoke some movement r3k |
| 15641s | trying to a goose Ray inside of it |
| 15643s | looked like it worked there's the sigma |
| 15645s | down charion now can take this off angle |
| 15647s | but still needs to respect leave it's |
| 15648s | going to be monk though striking again |
| 15650s | charion is down but Monk Is punished for |
| 15652s | playing such an advanced position Sho |
| 15655s | may be in a spot here to slow things |
| 15657s | down for Hong Kong they realize this is |
| 15659s | their best chance to get this first |
| 15660s | checkpoint and chai getting zero targets |
| 15663s | being served up to him Kumi able just |
| 15665s | grael to that High Ground we a meter and |
| 15669s | change away and gu's back yeah guwe |
| 15671s | makes it back into the fight and has |
| 15673s | Acra flux in play here dangerous for |
| 15676s | linga able to use those exo boots to |
| 15677s | stay alive for the time being Goose |
| 15679s | takes Shion down and here's a flux from |
| 15680s | goose someone has to touch the oh it's |
| 15684s | shades of San Francisco versus Atlanta |
| 15687s | mat they give up the checkpoint as Hong |
| 15689s | Kong get an extension yes gu goes for |
| 15692s | the flux there and sometimes the sigma |
| 15695s | right when you use that gravitic flux |
| 15696s | obvious L want to go up in the the the |
| 15699s | sky you get a little bit out of the sky |
| 15701s | box there of the payload contest and it |
| 15703s | just probably happens in a game of |
| 15705s | inches there is uh that'll be first |
| 15707s | point |
| 15709s | taken okay 2 minutes to work with here |
| 15712s | Hong Kong though not a lot else outside |
| 15715s | of that time bank to give them |
| 15718s | confidence M close to a Transcendence oh |
| 15721s | there it is |
| 15722s | mango turned into scrap shy as well |
| 15726s | might be just holding on to this infite |
| 15728s | here waiting for Kumi to build it up |
| 15729s | it's going to be a little while though |
| 15730s | monk taken down but chalion picked off |
| 15733s | there is a flank Happening Here for Hong |
| 15735s | Kong we'll see if it pays off because |
| 15737s | the rest of them are struggling in the |
| 15739s | main fight as goes over to the Genji |
| 15742s | here uh went over to Z last dude Shai's |
| 15745s | aim is so sick uh you got to have like a |
| 15748s | you know if you're not going to play |
| 15749s | like a Lucio o nice deflect there is uh |
| 15752s | not going to play like a Lucio to get |
| 15753s | the speed up to that High Ground you got |
| 15755s | to give the a hero that can challenge |
| 15758s | that where the Genji fits right |
| 15761s | in all right once to that scary minute |
| 15764s | Mark Shan hoping to build a blade in the |
| 15766s | next few moments has to respect though |
| 15768s | the potential for shy and Le to |
| 15769s | immediately take him out of the fight he |
| 15772s | has to be careful while also taking the |
| 15774s | opportunity to get this longrange |
| 15775s | shuriken damage monk with the |
| 15777s | transcenders that would be bad news for |
| 15779s | a dragon blade that's for sure this is |
| 15780s | going to be a very explosive fight with |
| 15782s | a lot of ultimates leverage yes it looks |
| 15784s | like uh you know both teams just trying |
| 15786s | to build oh look at that look how fast |
| 15788s | they're able to capitalize that right |
| 15789s | it's a really nice cretion there from gu |
| 15793s | and then Lee finishes off with the nice |
| 15795s | shot love this from karumi though really |
| 15797s | standing Toe to Toe with shy lead now |
| 15799s | trying to get rid of the Widowmaker but |
| 15800s | there's a lot of pressure ACC comes in |
| 15801s | and karumi takes down both DPS from the |
| 15803s | team from China there's still the issue |
| 15805s | of the gravitic flux to deal with though |
| 15807s | karumi hoping to put some pressure on |
| 15808s | monk but they get back around the corner |
| 15810s | and good is down graffic flux that comes |
| 15812s | out from r3k and Hong Kong have a real |
| 15814s | crack at this yes karum has hit some |
| 15817s | really impressive shots on the |
| 15819s | Widowmaker especially coming in as a sub |
| 15821s | for this map right you know uh the team |
| 15824s | from China obviously no Subs coming into |
| 15826s | this one I keep everybody in shy one of |
| 15828s | the best widows in the world and karumi |
| 15830s | has put on a really nice performance and |
| 15832s | unanswered in sight here all the info in |
| 15834s | the hands of the team from China shalan |
| 15836s | interrupted as he tries to go for the |
| 15838s | Dragon Blade ACC sends him off course |
| 15840s | leave going to get involved now with the |
| 15841s | overclock the Transcendence is fine but |
| 15843s | it's not going to stop the first damage |
| 15844s | and shy take shion's head CLE off the |
| 15847s | team from China use the information |
| 15850s | behind infight and the overclock to |
| 15852s | retake yeah really uh really nice uh you |
| 15856s | know play there from Hong Kong even to |
| 15858s | get it that close right know towards |
| 15860s | that second checkpoint where know team |
| 15863s | from China they had built up a ton of |
| 15865s | ultimates and karumi hadit some nice |
| 15867s | shots start to get the payload moving |
| 15868s | they get that Dragon Blade but uh China |
| 15870s | able to cycle through all their cool |
| 15872s | Downs do a nice job of holding on there |
| 15874s | at the end I like how you pointed out |
| 15876s | just how quick leave is able to follow |
| 15877s | up on this accretion that hits Shion in |
| 15880s | midair he's lying prone right so we |
| 15881s | stand in mid a and leave just instantly |
| 15883s | flicks over and finishes the Genji off |
| 15886s | with a rail gun really hard to play |
| 15888s | under those circumstances because it's |
| 15889s | not just that particular combo that's |
| 15891s | hostile to you is playing Genji you're |
| 15893s | dealing with uh Zen that can kick the CR |
| 15895s | out of you Transcendence that shuts down |
| 15897s | Your Dragon Blade the constant threat of |
| 15900s | either shy or leave just picking you off |
| 15901s | here if this is the comp we get from the |
| 15903s | team for what's up I mean this would be |
| 15906s | uh interesting right aari with a aari |
| 15910s | with a junker queen and a hero that's a |
| 15914s | you know interesting setup potentially |
| 15916s | uh leave of the geni pretty strong so |
| 15922s | of yeah |
| 15925s | KY nice head shot there looks like |
| 15928s | potentially lost Mitch for a little bit |
| 15930s | he must be having the same thing that |
| 15932s | so's G going on oh you're back I am back |
| 15935s | yeah bring you back I mean I would have |
| 15938s | been happy for you I was I was having |
| 15941s | fun all alone and then they took all the |
| 15942s | fun away come on man come on bro I need |
| 15945s | this man come on bro please it's my |
| 15947s | Master's promo game just one |
| 15949s | more all right team from China here they |
| 15952s | put shy on soj that's going to light my |
| 15954s | eyes up and leave on the Genji oh my |
| 15956s | goodness here's the cage and I don't |
| 15958s | just mean the ax wi Goose W pushing up |
| 15960s | towards our 3K who's able to get a |
| 15961s | little bit of durability off of that |
| 15963s | kinetic grasp but the pressure is |
| 15965s | immense the team from China making great |
| 15967s | strides with this Rush yeah they want to |
| 15970s | play aggressive they want to play Fast |
| 15971s | right having Theo in the mix with a |
| 15973s | Lucio as well as uh the junker Queen if |
| 15976s | you can get past that Sigma Shield right |
| 15978s | start uh you know hit hitting those big |
| 15980s | ax Swings with the Carnage really start |
| 15982s | to just ramp up those heels as I know |
| 15984s | legs are doing a nice job there getting |
| 15986s | the payload moving yeah this is a real |
| 15988s | winds moment here for L riding it |
| 15992s | straight on in and it's going to be very |
| 15994s | very hard for Hong Kong to unse this |
| 15995s | position for gu you're kidding me the |
| 15998s | kunai across the map Jalan out and |
| 16000s | injured by Theo and that immortality |
| 16003s | field yeah might prolong things for |
| 16005s | r3k but he can't really afford to back |
| 16007s | out of it so he's stuck playing further |
| 16009s | forward than the rest of his team gu |
| 16012s | shows mang what a real knife is and |
| 16014s | karumi can't do much from here monk |
| 16017s | playing Super aggressive definitely |
| 16018s | briming with confidence yeah and once |
| 16021s | you get this Kitsune Rush right know |
| 16023s | kitsun Rush plus a lot of the other |
| 16025s | Heroes that they have uh just in the |
| 16027s | lineup right like the queen where you |
| 16029s | start to get a lot of those axes and |
| 16031s | whatnot everything just becomes even |
| 16034s | stronger just Amplified as r3k now will |
| 16037s | go over and play a queen of their own |
| 16040s | and try and match |
| 16042s | here okay the issue is with the switches |
| 16044s | though Mitch is that you've already |
| 16046s | given you know the team from China a |
| 16048s | huge lead in terms of like ultimate |
| 16049s | economy right so like you may now have a |
| 16051s | good comp to kind of match them it's |
| 16053s | just you're so far |
| 16054s | behind wants to push them ahead here |
| 16057s | with that ksun rushing oh my goodness is |
| 16060s | the Rampage three players hit with that |
| 16062s | one no way of keeping R3 K alive |
| 16064s | apparently the suzu just not an option |
| 16066s | here and Hong Kong here again crumble |
| 16069s | under this immense pressure and remember |
| 16072s | the team from China just really have to |
| 16074s | get to the end of this phase of the map |
| 16075s | that means Hong Kong have one more |
| 16078s | fight yes it's going to be an overclock |
| 16081s | here from Shai as they push up they |
| 16083s | don't even want to let them get out and |
| 16084s | try and contest the C here |
| 16087s | oh karumi tries to make it out with a |
| 16089s | nice Dash as ki's had a a pretty good |
| 16092s | map just coming on in but still I mean |
| 16094s | the the amount of pressure right the the |
| 16096s | aggression that the team from China |
| 16098s | plays with with this dive comp gets |
| 16099s | right in your face gets really |
| 16101s | aggressive a rush style of play and they |
| 16103s | all end up taking the series yeah we |
| 16106s | said we hadn't yet seen what the team |
| 16108s | from China have been working on coming |
| 16110s | into this this World Cup match but we |
| 16112s | knew they'd be confident we knew the |
| 16114s | rest of the group would have a reason to |
| 16116s | to fear them and just again the |
| 16119s | explosiveness that we saw the team from |
| 16120s | chy to come out with there on that |
| 16122s | attacking side playing the junker Quin |
| 16124s | comp but also what they're able to get |
| 16125s | done with the double hit scan in that |
| 16127s | Sigma mirror you've got a handed to Hong |
| 16129s | Kong uh really tough battle from the |
| 16132s | outset karumi got to show off some |
| 16133s | incredible individual moments there |
| 16135s | that's definitely something they can |
| 16136s | take away from this game yeah and it was |
| 16138s | great to see mango com in there for that |
| 16141s | second map play some zenyata play some |
| 16143s | of the flex reports so uh really uh know |
| 16147s | interesting stuff on both sides but man |
| 16149s | the team from China just looked really |
| 16151s | good in terms of like their coordination |
| 16153s | the dive like how fast they play they're |
| 16156s | going to be difficult for just about any |
| 16157s | team I mean let's think about it moving |
| 16159s | forward right Spain and Thailand both |
| 16161s | stand in the way of the team from China |
| 16164s | it's very hard for me to see the game's |
| 16166s | going any differently than what we just |
| 16168s | saw this is a team that's achieved |
| 16170s | Second Place Silver medal finishes in |
| 16172s | 2018 and 2019 respectively and this year |
| 16175s | they gone for gold |
| 16177s | yeah I mean uh look that they they have |
| 16179s | the roster to do it they have the roster |
| 16180s | to go all the way uh in a few more |
| 16183s | performances like that they very do it |
| 16186s | all right much to talk about after that |
| 16188s | game even though it was quite short a |
| 16189s | lot of individuals putting themselves |
| 16190s | either back on the map or putting on |
| 16192s | there for the first time it's head to |
| 16193s | our desk to break down the action |
| 16195s | between Hong Kong and the team from |
| 16198s | China thank you Mitch and Matt yeah this |
| 16201s | is exactly the kind of convincing |
| 16203s | performance that we expected to see from |
| 16206s | the team from China so let's break it |
| 16208s | down what are your main thoughts after |
| 16210s | this match concluded um for me I think |
| 16213s | this was a great showing from Team from |
| 16215s | China they are definitely one of the |
| 16216s | favorites to win it all in the OverWatch |
| 16218s | World Cup 2023 along with what South |
| 16220s | Korea and USA and this was sort of a |
| 16223s | proof for them right I mean it was not |
| 16225s | only the coordination but every single |
| 16228s | player on the on team from China team |
| 16230s | you know they really showed an |
| 16232s | outstanding performance I I quickly want |
| 16234s | to shout out monk as well this support |
| 16236s | player he had a fantastic performance uh |
| 16239s | today so I think you know I think I'm |
| 16241s | more now I'm even more excited to see |
| 16243s | more from uh Team from China yeah I |
| 16246s | agree with that I mean they remain one |
| 16248s | of the favorites to win the entire |
| 16249s | tournament right and they look really |
| 16251s | strong uh in this game as we watch it |
| 16254s | right here and they did lose that first |
| 16256s | point here on circuit Royale but I think |
| 16258s | that was more of a mistake of stepping |
| 16260s | off the objective right more so than um |
| 16263s | you know misplaying by the means so I |
| 16265s | wouldn't be too worried about that uh |
| 16267s | the team from China is still one of the |
| 16269s | favorites in this entire tournament when |
| 16271s | it comes to Hong Kong for the remainder |
| 16272s | of the tournament uh they they are |
| 16274s | playing Spain in our fourth uh day here |
| 16278s | in the group stages so if you can |
| 16281s | potentially win that match in a two-o |
| 16284s | fashion maybe you can hope for some kind |
| 16286s | of three-way tie to make it out of |
| 16288s | groups obviously they haven't really |
| 16290s | been that strong uh so far in this group |
| 16292s | stage but I don't necessarily want to |
| 16295s | count them out because it's been two |
| 16296s | pretty tough matches for them so far |
| 16298s | against both the team from China that of |
| 16301s | course have a lot of synergy and time |
| 16302s | playing with each other and that goes |
| 16304s | for the same from uh Thailand right who |
| 16306s | also have a lot of experience playing |
| 16308s | with each other in in Asia Pacific |
| 16309s | region right so Hong Kong one more |
| 16311s | opportunity here against Spain uh in day |
| 16313s | four that's going to be |
| 16315s | Wednesday yeah and we're looking forward |
| 16317s | to that very much so let's once more |
| 16320s | take a look at our updated group |
| 16322s | standings oh actually we just did that |
| 16324s | never mind I just can't get enough |
| 16326s | groups we love love groups I love I love |
| 16330s | Graphics I love stampings I love promos |
| 16333s | and you know what that's how we get them |
| 16335s | again here they are so with this ma uh |
| 16339s | match concluded that means there's only |
| 16342s | one single team that we have not seen |
| 16344s | thus far and that is Team USA and this |
| 16348s | will come up right after this break so |
| 16350s | don't go |
| 16354s | anywhere |
| 16360s | [Music] |
| 16371s | [Music] |
| 16384s | n |
| 16389s | [Applause] |
| 16396s | let's |
| 16402s | [Music] |
| 16411s | [Music] |
| 16414s | go |
| 16444s | you |
| 16459s | 3 2 1 let's |
| 16466s | [Music] |
| 16474s | go |
| 16493s | [Music] |

| 16534s | me |
| 16537s | [Music] |
| 16555s | our next match is going to feature Team |
| 16557s | USA and Team France this is going to be |
| 16560s | our first look at Team USA and this is |
| 16562s | an opportunity for Team France to redeem |
| 16564s | themselves it was a surprise Rising loss |
| 16566s | I think most people expected France to |
| 16567s | come out on top in their matchup against |
| 16570s | team Japan which looked so very crisp |
| 16573s | and clean so France back to the drawing |
| 16575s | board trying to figure out how they can |
| 16577s | take down uh the rest of their groove |
| 16581s | this is their chance but they are going |
| 16583s | up against one of the favorites to win |
| 16584s | it all but let's chat about this very |
| 16587s | lineup guys what did we learn from their |
| 16589s | match yesterday where do we see room for |
| 16592s | improvement I mean they are I think |
| 16594s | making some adjustments we had we were |
| 16595s | seeing Ben best uh coming into the |
| 16597s | lineup uh yesterday we saw po play uh |
| 16600s | get more Play Time against Japan so you |
| 16602s | know like like you said I think they |
| 16604s | went to the drawing board uh see what |
| 16606s | they needed to fix and I think one of |
| 16607s | the things was putting trying them best |
| 16609s | right as as a main tank I think you know |
| 16612s | I think all of us were surprised when |
| 16613s | they lost to Japan but I mean the talent |
| 16616s | is there right guys France has a lot of |
| 16619s | great players so I think you know I for |
| 16622s | right now France you know they just have |
| 16624s | to not think about their lost yesterday |
| 16626s | focus on this match because this is a |
| 16628s | big one if they lose this they're going |
| 16629s | to be 02 and things are going to look a |
| 16632s | lot more difficult for team friends yeah |
| 16634s | maybe they maybe they overdid it maybe |
| 16636s | they overcooked you know with the 11 |
| 16638s | people on there coming you have six |
| 16640s | assistant coaches one head coach that's |
| 16641s | a lot of voices to be heard they going |
| 16644s | they need a little bit more exactly or |
| 16646s | maybe they need more who knows uh either |
| 16648s | way they need a lot of things to go up |
| 16650s | against this USA roster a mixture of old |
| 16654s | and new a lot of star power in this very |
| 16656s | lineup yeah I think some people were |
| 16659s | expecting super to come out as a tank |
| 16661s | player for this team but if we're being |
| 16662s | realistic I mean kou he has played at |
| 16666s | the highest level OverWatch like |
| 16667s | recently right and um his Sigma has been |
| 16669s | phenomenal so if we're truly in a sigma |
| 16671s | meta then kouo is going to be the than |
| 16673s | player you're going to see for most of |
| 16674s | this tournament so they had did a little |
| 16676s | bit of trolling as we'll see throughout |
| 16678s | these highlights you know ultra violet |
| 16679s | playing ratra for example K Moira uh |
| 16682s | this was how Team USA Advanced through |
| 16684s | the qualif |
| 16686s | uh this one they're actually playing |
| 16687s | seriously on this one this is what we |
| 16688s | want to see more about right um maybe |
| 16691s | not more coing here in the back these |
| 16693s | highlights are thrilling they really |
| 16694s | entertaining but it is going to be |
| 16696s | interesting to see what Team USA brings |
| 16698s | out here because it has been some months |
| 16699s | since the qualification stage so the |
| 16701s | meta is obviously shifted um and |
| 16703s | obviously we didn't see a ton of matches |
| 16704s | when they actually played their real |
| 16706s | match up the real players on the |
| 16708s | appropriate roles right so this is going |
| 16710s | to be the first time we're actually |
| 16711s | seeing USA in action here in the group |
| 16713s | stage and so I'm curious to see what |
| 16715s | will see when it comes to their |
| 16716s | compositions and what they have planned |
| 16717s | later down the tournament because quite |
| 16719s | frankly while we talk about South Korea |
| 16721s | the team from China and USA being the |
| 16723s | three favorites to win the entire thing |
| 16726s | we didn't really get a great look of any |
| 16728s | of the teams except for maybe team from |
| 16730s | China of course going into the |
| 16731s | tournament so this is the first time we |
| 16732s | get to really see okay USA can you stack |
| 16735s | up against Korea and the team from China |
| 16738s | yeah and we're about to find out so |
| 16739s | let's take a look at our predictions to |
| 16740s | see where we're going with this one I |
| 16743s | had to give the dub to team us I I just |
| 16746s | I'm just very excited for this lineup uh |
| 16748s | they're not just the reigning champion |
| 16750s | and of course a lot of those players |
| 16752s | this is their first o World Cup showing |
| 16754s | right so it's not the same Ro that we've |
| 16756s | saw winning it all in 2019 but there's |
| 16759s | so much talent there's so much talent |
| 16762s | each of those players has shown us so |
| 16764s | much great stuff in the OverWatch um |
| 16766s | League this very uh past season or this |
| 16769s | year rather so I have a lot of faith in |
| 16771s | that roster what about you Danny same |
| 16773s | and with USA uh I mean Team France does |
| 16775s | have the talent but I mean USA I think |
| 16778s | has more Talent simple as that I think |
| 16780s | I'm going I'm going with a USA 20 yeah I |
| 16784s | went with the us as well uh I mean |
| 16786s | France didn't have the best showing |
| 16788s | yesterday against Japan so that's |
| 16790s | already something that doesn't make me |
| 16792s | super confident in the game play going |
| 16793s | into this one but given that they |
| 16795s | changed two players in their starting |
| 16797s | lineup you know could be map dependent |
| 16799s | or it could be France saying hey we're |
| 16801s | doing some last minute changes we're |
| 16802s | we're just going to throw stuff at the |
| 16804s | wall and see what sticks uh this could |
| 16806s | be a different French team we're saying |
| 16808s | I mean all those players in team friends |
| 16811s | they know what's up you know like they |
| 16812s | they know how to recover from a loss |
| 16814s | like that so exactly they're |
| 16816s | professionals they've been around the |
| 16817s | block so they got lot of coaches no they |
| 16820s | do have a lot of coaches no reason to |
| 16822s | despair just yet but it is going to be |
| 16824s | an uphill battle going up against the |
| 16827s | team from the USA however we got some |
| 16830s | inside scoop so maybe we're going to |
| 16832s | regret our predictions here Emily you |
| 16834s | talked to both of those teams what you |
| 16835s | got for us yeah I mean speaking of |
| 16838s | coaches I was able to talk to both the |
| 16840s | coaches from Team France and Team USA |
| 16843s | and uh F from Team France said we need |
| 16847s | to go back to fundamentals and focus on |
| 16849s | our own game in order to take on Team |
| 16851s | USA and I asked well your opponent is |
| 16854s | full of high-profile players so is there |
| 16857s | anyone from the other team that you're |
| 16859s | especially concerned about and F said we |
| 16862s | don't focus on one player especially and |
| 16866s | it is indeed an a Very high-profile team |
| 16869s | but um we just need to play our aame |
| 16872s | today and uh super Genji is pretty scary |
| 16877s | though as for Team USA Coach Gator said |
| 16881s | you know the first impressions that he |
| 16883s | had from day one of OverWatch World Cup |
| 16885s | was very surprising he expected stronger |
| 16888s | performances from the European teams and |
| 16891s | then I asked well was there a dark horse |
| 16893s | team um either from from your group or |
| 16895s | other groups and he said a dark horse |
| 16899s | team for me would be Japan from |
| 16901s | yesterday's |
| 16902s | performance um I think our toughest |
| 16905s | opponent would be team Saudi |
| 16907s | Arabia but our team has spent a lot of |
| 16910s | time together out of the game as well as |
| 16911s | being friends for many years and we have |
| 16913s | a very open communication and comfort |
| 16916s | level that few teams can ever achieve so |
| 16919s | yeah there's some great players but uh |
| 16921s | our toughest opponents in our group is |
| 16924s | ourselves |
| 16927s | that's right thank you so much Emily |
| 16930s | there you have it back to the drawing |
| 16932s | board for France and general Impressions |
| 16935s | there from Team USA I think we're very |
| 16937s | much aligned with their Impressions uh |
| 16939s | there were some surprises day won but |
| 16941s | you know that was just one day we have a |
| 16943s | lot more games to play so any of these |
| 16945s | teams can come out and redeem themselves |
| 16948s | with some standout performances in their |
| 16950s | upcoming matches I am super excited for |
| 16952s | this one let's see uh let's get a second |
| 16955s | look at Team France and a first look at |
| 16957s | Team USA But first we're going to head |
| 16959s | into a quick break and after that we're |
| 16960s | back with all the |
| 16977s | [Music] |
| 16983s | action |
| 17002s | let |
| 17013s | go |
| 17017s | [Music] |
| 17043s | go |
| 17058s | [Music] |
| 17073s | welcome back everyone to the OverWatch |
| 17076s | World Cup we hop over to Group D to get |
| 17078s | our first look at USA and we get to see |
| 17080s | also if France have a comeback in them |
| 17082s | after yesterday yeah obviously taking |
| 17085s | that initial loss to Japan was not how |
| 17087s | they wanted this group stage to start it |
| 17089s | was a very close game back and forth |
| 17093s | Japan threw this very strange strategy |
| 17095s | of playing a lot of doomfist and I think |
| 17096s | it caught you know Team France off guard |
| 17099s | so I'm curious to see going up against |
| 17100s | USA especially with collusion the lineup |
| 17102s | we might see more of a sigma Sigma |
| 17105s | mirror that Team France might feel a |
| 17107s | little bit more comfortable with yeah |
| 17109s | it's interesting that France maybe |
| 17111s | feeling like they have to change their |
| 17112s | composition up and at least their |
| 17113s | players around Nico won't be starting it |
| 17116s | it's pack who very very new player to |
| 17119s | the scene has experienced in contenders |
| 17121s | Europe uh wondering what her his hero |
| 17123s | pool is going to be I was very much |
| 17125s | expecting Nico today but a lot of World |
| 17127s | Cup experience across the board besides |
| 17130s | you know a few new players like AO and |
| 17132s | pack and Nat loocks and then they're |
| 17134s | going to need as much experience as they |
| 17136s | can get because they're going up against |
| 17138s | Team USA which has a very experienced |
| 17141s | roster as much as in 2019 it was a |
| 17144s | completely different set of players |
| 17146s | other than super who came out of |
| 17147s | retirement for this one everyone in the |
| 17149s | lineup that you see right here is a |
| 17151s | first time in the OverWatch World Cup |
| 17154s | but they are no slashers they are great |
| 17155s | players within the OverWatch league and |
| 17157s | that's why everyone is saying Team |
| 17159s | France they have their work cut out for |
| 17161s | them against this squad because USA they |
| 17163s | have a lot of depth and they have a lot |
| 17164s | of skill |
| 17165s | now USA are one of the big favorites |
| 17168s | along with South Korea but USA just that |
| 17170s | they had public trouts which were so |
| 17173s | incredibly competitive like they have |
| 17175s | what three three tank players quote |
| 17177s | unquote if you count that Dante could |
| 17179s | come in as doomfist maybe but we start |
| 17181s | on bu on downtown with some junker Queen |
| 17185s | out of benb best we don't get to see |
| 17186s | that too often usually back on is what |
| 17188s | Washington Justice days it was a lot of |
| 17189s | Reinhardt yeah so Benz is in that lineup |
| 17192s | I must have missed that one so that |
| 17193s | means they're playing completely |
| 17195s | differently to what we saw from them |
| 17196s | yesterday they're going to want to play |
| 17198s | fast with this Jun of Queen speed boost |
| 17199s | in with the sh there they go there they |
| 17202s | go but AO probably why you sub him in |
| 17205s | that hit scan although maybe he wasn't |
| 17207s | in the OverWatch league is such an |
| 17209s | important hero to play on downtown if |
| 17211s | you can dominate the top of that |
| 17212s | building you got Sidelines on around the |
| 17214s | map it's difficult to maneuver seems |
| 17217s | like USA haven't been affected too much |
| 17218s | the first cap goes to France and using |
| 17220s | that speed they Dash on right to hydron |
| 17223s | forcing out his jump us they don't have |
| 17225s | a lot of well space until Kia decides to |
| 17228s | go to the point by himself now has |
| 17230s | reinforcements but is below 50% Health |
| 17233s | doesn't have a lot of armor but with |
| 17235s | that immortality Rupal wasn't sure how |
| 17237s | kou was going to do either and France |
| 17239s | now rotating behind and they're Jing for |
| 17241s | a position both teams neither wanting to |
| 17243s | make a move but pack once again with a |
| 17245s | first pick on the ruple that's a lot of |
| 17246s | healing out for |
| 17247s | USA yeah France oh they just collapsed |
| 17251s | after that initial take us say I mean |
| 17255s | they just kind of played this CAD Mouse |
| 17256s | running around the staircase and I don't |
| 17259s | think pack is going to get out but good |
| 17261s | retake by USA yeah they didn't have the |
| 17263s | healing but they didn't need it they got |
| 17265s | the picks they had the positioning in |
| 17266s | that moment and you're going to see a |
| 17268s | switch out from benb best as well |
| 17269s | doesn't want to play the junker Queen |
| 17271s | into the Arisa it's a unfavorable match |
| 17273s | up so they go back to their Sigma style |
| 17275s | that they were known for you know just |
| 17277s | recently yesterday and then AO also over |
| 17279s | to the |
| 17280s | Ser USA now have the ant Matrix so |
| 17284s | France kind of hope that they can cross |
| 17285s | quickly to that mega pack side and a |
| 17287s | half of them managed to do so but France |
| 17289s | are all split up and USA Converge on the |
| 17292s | ones that made it through now the sound |
| 17293s | bear from FD God does rally the troops |
| 17295s | in France Hing to maybe use this Dragon |
| 17298s | Blade but pack is hesitating and France |
| 17300s | are losing bodies USA haven't really had |
| 17302s | to use their DPS ultimates but let see |
| 17305s | what poou can do good Terror surge |
| 17307s | really splits up France even more |
| 17309s | fantastic spear in USA haven't lost |
| 17312s | anyone at this point they'll take the |
| 17313s | lead and USA just used all of their |
| 17316s | ultimates slower the sound barrier went |
| 17318s | out from FD God ultraviolet not known |
| 17320s | for his Lucio uses that bit a little bit |
| 17322s | later and that gives USA the advantage |
| 17324s | they have control of the room there's |
| 17326s | nothing France can really do but now |
| 17328s | there's a window here for Team France |
| 17329s | packed he has that Genji Blade no sound |
| 17332s | barriers on either side but sugarfree |
| 17334s | can match with his blade of his own and |
| 17336s | we know how good sugarfree is on the |
| 17339s | Genji Grant unsure if they wanted to |
| 17341s | take that Coast side but decided to |
| 17343s | speed on through attack with the Dragon |
| 17345s | Blade dashes in didn't get the reset |
| 17347s | maybe worried about hydron who has got |
| 17349s | the overclock plenty of space to work |
| 17351s | with even has a speed of ultraviolet |
| 17353s | jumps back on top tries to dodge the |
| 17355s | accretion up the sigma here's sugarfree |
| 17357s | shining bright and that's more than |
| 17359s | enough work for USA now within one fight |
| 17362s | territory of winning the first round |
| 17364s | yeah and at 85% in County USA they're |
| 17366s | going to try and punish benb best |
| 17368s | they're trying to get him early if they |
| 17369s | can get this pick Team France might even |
| 17371s | get another opportunity oh no how are |
| 17373s | they going to get to the point now AO |
| 17375s | switches over to the Tracer to touch but |
| 17377s | it's going to be a difficult route to |
| 17378s | get you God |
| 17380s | is Not uh thinking about touching at |
| 17383s | least okay last minute there from FD |
| 17386s | God next pack on top and France behind |
| 17389s | after what you thought was an early good |
| 17392s | take and they had the rotations they had |
| 17394s | USA fleeing the fight at all times but |
| 17397s | as soon as USA retook it was just a wall |
| 17401s | that France couldn't break through yeah |
| 17403s | and USA just using their ultimates |
| 17405s | better and better and better than Team |
| 17406s | France it just feel like they had a |
| 17408s | little bit more Synergy and coordination |
| 17410s | and you know we just heard from Emily |
| 17412s | talking about Team USA they have a lot |
| 17415s | of experience playing together a lot of |
| 17417s | them are friends so there is that |
| 17419s | Synergy that they have from just playing |
| 17421s | the OverWatch league but also just |
| 17423s | understanding and being able to be |
| 17424s | honest with each other to be able to |
| 17425s | play as a whole unit now we're going to |
| 17427s | see switches coming out from France and |
| 17429s | we're going to see Benz go over to what |
| 17431s | I would consider his signature hero over |
| 17433s | to the Reinhardt |
| 17435s | yeah that's what I remember him being |
| 17437s | subbed in for but there's so many good |
| 17439s | options I mean orisa I think is more |
| 17441s | flexible when you can have the range |
| 17442s | damage more sustain yeah if that's what |
| 17445s | kou has been known to play too it's a |
| 17447s | good matchup but with the may I wonder |
| 17449s | how well this can enable Ben Bast and |
| 17452s | pack on the May should give France an |
| 17454s | advantage cuz Genji is nowhere near as |
| 17455s | good yes you can play to a high level if |
| 17457s | you can get those Dash resets but may |
| 17459s | with the wo you can isolate your players |
| 17461s | just like kou here oh hydron letting |
| 17464s | loose immortality is keeping France up |
| 17466s | and hydron will not be stopped and not a |
| 17468s | lot of attention is being given over to |
| 17470s | him really just France is overwhelmed by |
| 17473s | Team USA and with Mecha base being such |
| 17476s | a defendable map um or I should say |
| 17479s | round this is going to be Troublesome |
| 17481s | for France to attack it again yeah |
| 17483s | because it gets difficult here for the |
| 17485s | team trying to reclaim the point because |
| 17487s | there's two very small chokes that |
| 17488s | you're coming out of and they can see |
| 17490s | you coming you can see USA waiting at |
| 17492s | the top of the stairs waiting for Team |
| 17493s | France they're going to have to use so |
| 17494s | many resources just get out the door |
| 17496s | they use the wall to cut off the |
| 17497s | sidelines that's a great play from |
| 17498s | France an Matrix I wonder how much space |
| 17501s | is going to be created but this neutral |
| 17502s | fight is also decided by the bastions |
| 17505s | you can punish these rotations as |
| 17507s | someone out in the open it was sugar |
| 17509s | free FD got able to chase it down and |
| 17511s | Matrix here from The High Ground of |
| 17513s | France spraying and praying as USA |
| 17515s | caught in the open here hoping to keep |
| 17517s | defend keep defending this point but |
| 17520s | they decide to retreat in France cap |
| 17522s | again that's a great play Drops Out wall |
| 17524s | that just sort of scatters USA coll went |
| 17526s | forward but the rest of the team wasn't |
| 17528s | there from from there France just |
| 17530s | finding their advantages find the |
| 17531s | initial pick get sugarfree down but now |
| 17533s | ultimates are starting to come online |
| 17534s | rupo has the amplification Matrix USA |
| 17537s | are going to rotate to the right side |
| 17538s | drop that one early to give them some |
| 17540s | space hey at Matrix this scares the heck |
| 17543s | out of France go back to The High Ground |
| 17545s | in USA chasing them down and Hydra maybe |
| 17548s | even getting them low here with the |
| 17549s | artillery strike and so L and he popped |
| 17552s | up to USA taking fight after fight and |
| 17555s | committing more SS here's the Dragon |
| 17557s | Blade but the terror surge not ideal but |
| 17559s | benb at least wanted to go for the trade |
| 17561s | but didn't Channel it long enough to get |
| 17563s | sugar |
| 17564s | free will be USA capping the point again |
| 17567s | and taking the lead just perfect |
| 17569s | position of the artillery strike by |
| 17571s | hydron FD God does pop the sound barrier |
| 17573s | but it's just a second too late then |
| 17575s | benos Ben best sorry also using the |
| 17578s | terror surge incredibly late so now they |
| 17580s | don't have big ultimates to get back |
| 17582s | into this fight it's going to have to be |
| 17583s | unpack with this blizard to try and |
| 17585s | isolate some of the players from Team |
| 17586s | USA yeah USA came in with a plan at |
| 17589s | Matrix artillery and France what do they |
| 17592s | have cooked up at least getting out of |
| 17593s | the doors is good but the C surge has |
| 17595s | everyone low France still live and they |
| 17598s | place the Blizzard at their feet this |
| 17600s | does solidify USA a little bit but with |
| 17602s | the sound bear of ultraviolet USA march |
| 17605s | on here's the artillery strike from |
| 17606s | France maybe finish off some of those |
| 17608s | targets USA are down by two and France |
| 17610s | with the five versus three just have to |
| 17612s | finish off what they started and Ben |
| 17614s | best gets to just Gallop towards USA to |
| 17616s | look for those staggers to buy time that |
| 17619s | they desperately need just a great Play |
| 17622s | Once Again by France you can see they |
| 17624s | understand how they want to get into |
| 17625s | these retakes and USA because they |
| 17627s | aren't running the May of their own they |
| 17629s | don't have ways to limit France's |
| 17630s | ability to step into them so once again |
| 17632s | USA they're actually going to fake it to |
| 17634s | the right they've actually caught France |
| 17635s | France give them the opening they jump |
| 17636s | through with the amplification Matrix |
| 17638s | again yeah you also got to keep |
| 17640s | sugarfree in check he's looking for |
| 17641s | flanks here's the artillery strike from |
| 17644s | drawn there a lot of Targets in these |
| 17646s | Close Quarters and at least they're |
| 17647s | making them dance around maybe expose |
| 17649s | themselves out in the open USA have them |
| 17652s | trapped in this small room and USA are |
| 17655s | also trying to flip the point but |
| 17657s | somehow as kou was doing that he's |
| 17659s | removed and France don't have a tank |
| 17661s | standing in their way so they'll use the |
| 17663s | speed of FD God to at least leave the |
| 17665s | room see if they can match USA on The |
| 17666s | High Ground and France have all the |
| 17668s | advantages right now they have three |
| 17670s | ultimates on line pack coming up to the |
| 17671s | Blizzard they should be able to deal |
| 17673s | with the sugar free blade and take this |
| 17674s | round and Matrix ready see Nat loocks |
| 17677s | placing it down USA want to break |
| 17679s | through with the Dragon Blade to scare |
| 17681s | them away from but the sound bear is |
| 17683s | used and the terror surge that is a lot |
| 17685s | invested there by France but only a few |
| 17687s | more seconds left for them to defend and |
| 17689s | USA race the touch it's up to kou but |
| 17692s | he's only one man and France seconds |
| 17695s | away from taking round two and forcing |
| 17698s | the decider and you can see France |
| 17700s | feeling a lot more comfortable on this |
| 17702s | composition they understand to play |
| 17704s | around each other bu it down late they |
| 17706s | need to keep Ben best alive because |
| 17707s | spawners are going to come in from Team |
| 17709s | USA sugarfree Falls Ben best does but |
| 17711s | they do get hydron and close out the |
| 17713s | second round and we have a match going |
| 17715s | on right now lemon yeah I was wondering |
| 17718s | how France we just going to get through |
| 17720s | these chokes using speed I think the |
| 17723s | blizzard was something they were able to |
| 17725s | defend themselves well with it was good |
| 17727s | coordination and also just the bastions |
| 17729s | being able to kick off these fights it |
| 17731s | was I would honestly say that was a |
| 17732s | close round between the the two yeah and |
| 17736s | now we're going to see potentially Team |
| 17737s | USA switching over they are playing |
| 17740s | double Flex supports with ultra violot |
| 17742s | and ruple in this lineup very mechanical |
| 17745s | players and if they go over to the sigma |
| 17747s | with the high damage output of the |
| 17748s | supports they're going to try and spread |
| 17750s | themselves out and make it impossible |
| 17752s | for France to move around the map seems |
| 17754s | like France have a very similar idea of |
| 17756s | how they want to play this round as well |
| 17758s | this time though FD got on the Anna and |
| 17760s | a on the soldier of all picks as well |
| 17762s | hydron actually mirroring |
| 17765s | it's important how those first picks go |
| 17767s | for pack a lot of pressure on this new |
| 17769s | player shoulders up against hydron |
| 17772s | already on the pack side taking initial |
| 17774s | damage may give up this position now the |
| 17776s | sigas will have to duel for this drum |
| 17779s | position for the point where he can |
| 17781s | defend this for a long time pack gets |
| 17782s | that head shot that we were talking |
| 17784s | about against hydron on that left side |
| 17785s | that was an important duel this a power |
| 17787s | position that looks over the point USA |
| 17790s | can also counter rotate to the opposite |
| 17791s | side where the mega pack is but they |
| 17793s | seem to still want to push pack away |
| 17795s | who's now got his Flex supports by his |
| 17798s | side and the shield of Ben best and USA |
| 17800s | want to get around them and first flip |
| 17803s | over to Team France and now because they |
| 17805s | have the numbers Advantage they're |
| 17806s | trying to push away Team USA but ao's |
| 17808s | the one who gets punished then best |
| 17810s | rocked but back on his feet but very low |
| 17814s | FD got to is wanting to stay involved |
| 17816s | but he was 1 HP and Hy drawn takes him |
| 17819s | down USA just held this position they |
| 17822s | were stubborn and it paid off even |
| 17823s | despite losing hydron early you only |
| 17825s | give up 22% that's that's winnable for |
| 17828s | USA absolutely hydron comes back on the |
| 17831s | off angle just able to pick at Team |
| 17833s | France and they just couldn't hold up to |
| 17835s | the amount of damage that was coming |
| 17836s | through it's a very greedy pick of the |
| 17839s | Hanzo from pack here because hanzo's |
| 17841s | inconsistent damage and you're really |
| 17843s | live and die by the value you get from |
| 17845s | the Hanzo AR obviously got a very |
| 17847s | important opening pick but because of |
| 17849s | the Hanzo they also weren't able to |
| 17851s | close out the fight against Team USA oh |
| 17853s | and that's great from hyr on FD just one |
| 17856s | two punch with the left cck and the |
| 17857s | rocket and that's that Niche that |
| 17859s | Soldier has of how quickly you can |
| 17861s | rotate around but that is a thre man |
| 17863s | flux Nat loocks down and so is the rest |
| 17865s | of France caught off guard by USA taking |
| 17868s | these early positions yeah and USA |
| 17871s | really starting to get in their groove |
| 17873s | now this is where they should feel most |
| 17875s | comfortable on these hero cus is are |
| 17877s | self-proclaimed best Sigma in the world |
| 17879s | we're starting to see glimpses of that |
| 17881s | right now on this round look how for |
| 17883s | where hydron is and there's not really |
| 17886s | not really any punishing that AA will be |
| 17888s | on the soldier but you don't want to |
| 17889s | chase that down USA especially fdot has |
| 17893s | to be careful and Mark these locations |
| 17895s | Now France will head to that left side |
| 17897s | drum it's a lot more protected better |
| 17900s | walls and pack hoping with the deflect |
| 17902s | of these arrows maybe he'll get a random |
| 17904s | pick but he was lucky before uses the |
| 17906s | dragon strike to flush them out here's |
| 17908s | the captive Sun from ult TRV violate up |
| 17910s | against ha and I think that looks the |
| 17912s | immortality is only keeping the up for |
| 17914s | so long ultraviolet versus pack U |
| 17917s | doesn't care he's going to 1 V2 okay |
| 17920s | well he's got some help now from sugar |
| 17921s | call one V2 we'll give it to him yeah |
| 17924s | we'll give it to him sugar free wasn't |
| 17925s | even there but 80% plus this is getting |
| 17928s | to last fight territory Ben best going |
| 17929s | to do his best with the grab flux but |
| 17932s | not putting too much of a dent into USA |
| 17934s | and now all of a sudden Ben best is |
| 17936s | caught in no man's land doesn't have |
| 17937s | anywhere to go does manage to take down |
| 17939s | R Paul as well so some big individual |
| 17941s | plays coming from Team France are they |
| 17943s | to be able to touch has be a heroic play |
| 17946s | from AO takes down his counterpart of |
| 17949s | hyron and at least scares USA away which |
| 17952s | is the presence of the visor now spots |
| 17954s | UV on the right this is not even a duel |
| 17956s | he's confident in taking especially with |
| 17958s | the mechanics that UV has BR still |
| 17961s | trying to rotate but USA can contest for |
| 17964s | so long sugar free with the over claw |
| 17966s | jumps into the heat of the action and |
| 17969s | France just can't hold on for much |
| 17971s | longer map number one goes sa team |
| 17974s | USA it was interesting to see benb best |
| 17976s | coming into this lineup considering he |
| 17978s | played Sigma on two of the three rounds |
| 17980s | that's something that you would imagine |
| 17982s | Poco coming in maybe his leadership and |
| 17984s | experience as of late that's why they've |
| 17986s | decided to go with benb best but Team |
| 17988s | USA as much as it was wasn't that close |
| 17991s | on the second round you know France |
| 17992s | really started to show some Life USA |
| 17994s | showing the dominance that they have in |
| 17996s | this roster with just so many skilled |
| 17998s | players on every single |
| 18000s | role it's been cool to see just Ben Bez |
| 18003s | versus illusion USA have a lot of |
| 18006s | options too if they want to go towards |
| 18007s | super maybe on another map you thought |
| 18010s | maybe the Reinhardt would work there but |
| 18012s | clearly kou has proven to be just that |
| 18014s | Flex God when having to be that solo |
| 18016s | tank for Toronto defiant back in that |
| 18018s | day but here are the highlights of map |
| 18019s | number one it went all the way to round |
| 18021s | three yeah and it was very close a lot |
| 18024s | of people had USA as pretty clear |
| 18026s | favorites heading into this one but you |
| 18028s | know Team France really showing that |
| 18030s | they have what it takes when you have FD |
| 18031s | guard on a signature hero like Lucio Ben |
| 18033s | best able to play those front line tanks |
| 18035s | and then you Nico when they come in to |
| 18038s | play the may there's obviously Signs of |
| 18040s | Life there in France can feel a strong |
| 18041s | team but USA just a little bit too much |
| 18044s | and I do I am going to say it I do want |
| 18047s | to see super come into the lineup I want |
| 18049s | to see the super Reinhardt it almost |
| 18051s | needs to be done at some point that's |
| 18054s | what France to worry about the super |
| 18055s | Genji as Emily said is very scary but |
| 18058s | also pack I think was able to hold hold |
| 18060s | his own against hydron with the Hanzo |
| 18062s | versus Soldier match up that went pretty |
| 18064s | back and forth we're waiting for the map |
| 18066s | pick by the way from Team France as USA |
| 18070s | are on Match Point and I wonder |
| 18072s | depending on this pick is NI going to |
| 18075s | come back into the lineup are you |
| 18077s | confident in the AO pack DPS line |
| 18080s | against hydron and |
| 18081s | sugarfree we'll see I think France did a |
| 18083s | good job at keeping also sugarfree more |
| 18086s | in his place when he was on the Genji |
| 18088s | flanking yeah exactly right when when |
| 18090s | sugarfree wants to play on that off |
| 18092s | angles the problem that have if you're |
| 18093s | France is that there aren't really any |
| 18095s | clear weaknesses of the way USA wants to |
| 18097s | play because they have such a deep |
| 18099s | roster they can go to the Super geni if |
| 18101s | they need to they have Dante waiting in |
| 18103s | the wings to play doomfist or Sombra or |
| 18105s | any of those Heroes USA really does have |
| 18107s | a wealth of opportunities to play |
| 18109s | anything at this point yesterday we |
| 18112s | actually saw France go over to Circle |
| 18114s | Royale I believe it was and it was close |
| 18117s | they very almost closed out that map and |
| 18120s | they are going to go there again |
| 18122s | actually I'm going to uh correct myself |
| 18123s | they went to Blizzard blood yesterday |
| 18125s | that they were very close so actually |
| 18126s | going away from the map that they chose |
| 18128s | yesterday maybe thinking they'll have a |
| 18129s | better chance on circuit |
| 18131s | Royale and I wonder if that means Poco |
| 18133s | will come back into the lineup as their |
| 18135s | signature Sigma player but we'll find |
| 18137s | out what those substitutes will be on |
| 18139s | the other side of this |
| 18143s | [Music] |
| 18152s | break |
| 18154s | [Music] |
| 18177s | [Music] |
| 18182s | n |
| 18187s | [Music] |
| 18194s | [Music] |
| 18242s | yeah |

| 18301s | me |
| 18304s | [Music] |
| 18331s | me |
| 18334s | I can't wait to be in person with |
| 18335s | everyone cuz I can already hear the USA |
| 18338s | chance going on they're on match point |
| 18341s | get Team France don't worry if you're a |
| 18343s | French fan even if they go 0 and2 |
| 18345s | there's still a chance to qualify it |
| 18346s | just means the journey gets rougher from |
| 18348s | here on out there's always a chance and |
| 18351s | you can see the handsome man taking his |
| 18353s | spot in the middle of the team Poco has |
| 18356s | come in to play the sigma on Circle |
| 18358s | Royale this is what we expected to see |
| 18360s | but that's the only sub we're going to |
| 18362s | see coming out from Team France and they |
| 18364s | must be confident in taking this Sigma |
| 18366s | mirror they're going to take them to |
| 18367s | Circuit Royale yeah cuz we only saw Nico |
| 18370s | play May and I know that's his best hero |
| 18372s | but maybe they feel like they have more |
| 18373s | flexibility and would rather take the |
| 18375s | risk on pack and AO and yesterday we got |
| 18379s | to see AO play a pretty good soldier |
| 18381s | pretty good Bastion even today too so I |
| 18383s | wonder how pack is going to fit in this |
| 18385s | when you have probably going to play two |
| 18387s | hit scans here on circuit Royale who's |
| 18388s | going to take that Widow was it AO I |
| 18391s | believe on downtown either way but going |
| 18393s | up against hydron who when I started |
| 18395s | casting him in contenders he was the |
| 18398s | Widow back in the day I'm pretty sure |
| 18401s | hydron has called himself hron multiple |
| 18403s | times in postmatch interviews like he |
| 18405s | says sometimes he just sort of |
| 18406s | transcends himself and just like hits a |
| 18409s | different level especially on the |
| 18411s | Widowmaker he is a terrifying hit scan |
| 18413s | to have to go up against but this is |
| 18415s | this is the path that the team France |
| 18417s | has chosen so you have to believe that |
| 18419s | there is a reason that they have |
| 18420s | confidence in themselves but another |
| 18422s | thing that France is sort of playing |
| 18424s | into is once again te USA playing the |
| 18426s | double Flex support they can play the |
| 18428s | allari and the Baptist and both players |
| 18430s | are very comfortable on those Heroes |
| 18431s | ruple was just recently an OverWatch |
| 18434s | League champion playing bapti so that's |
| 18436s | a difficult thing that you're going to |
| 18437s | have to face it's been cool to see Rupal |
| 18440s | just grow as a player in terms of |
| 18443s | skill-wise and also as his whole career |
| 18445s | just so fast like he's blown up along |
| 18448s | with ultra via who has been always just |
| 18449s | the most respected player like if you've |
| 18451s | watched contenders if you support tier |
| 18453s | two like ultraviolet has been the goat |
| 18455s | for so long then you got you know |
| 18457s | sugarfree rookie to the air no big deal |
| 18459s | like this roster is so stacked it's |
| 18461s | insane France got to hope that they can |
| 18464s | put a good dent now they got that leader |
| 18466s | of Poco in the lineup we see on this map |
| 18468s | Choice how it'll go oh that was a just |
| 18471s | shooting into the flock of players |
| 18473s | hoping for something doesn't end up find |
| 18474s | anything but Pac is actually leaving the |
| 18476s | spawn on the symmetra so there seems to |
| 18478s | be an idea here of what they're going to |
| 18480s | do first of all it's going to allow them |
| 18482s | to TP onto this left side and boom there |
| 18485s | you go instant value sugarfree down |
| 18487s | they're going to try and push to see if |
| 18488s | they can find anything else but it |
| 18490s | doesn't look so so USA because they're |
| 18493s | playing the sojan and the Widow they're |
| 18495s | looking for picks they're not looking to |
| 18496s | go in they're just looking for the DPS |
| 18498s | players to hit shots while France |
| 18500s | because they're playing The Bash and the |
| 18501s | symmetra they have to go in they have to |
| 18503s | utilize their speed their movement to |
| 18505s | get on top of Team USA and there they go |
| 18508s | it's a little trickier for Sigma to take |
| 18510s | the space you constantly have to |
| 18511s | readjust that Shield this FR composition |
| 18513s | has become a brawl composition with the |
| 18516s | Lucio the symmetra that can move them |
| 18517s | around that's how they caught USA off |
| 18520s | guard knowing that maybe these double |
| 18521s | hit scan especially that widow's going |
| 18523s | to come out not as mobile as the rest |
| 18525s | and that's a free point a cap from |
| 18527s | France USA didn't even want to contest |
| 18530s | phenomenal game plan from Team France |
| 18531s | they obviously came in knew what they |
| 18533s | wanted to do and they caught Team USA |
| 18535s | off guard I don't even think many shots |
| 18537s | have even been taken from Team USA maybe |
| 18539s | one of the F fastest first point |
| 18541s | captures I've seen on Circ out in a very |
| 18543s | long time see how far this momentum can |
| 18546s | take them hydron on the flank spots out |
| 18550s | the support and maybe even pack and now |
| 18552s | he's exposed himself and USA have to |
| 18554s | head back hope to defend the end of |
| 18557s | point B and not much contest coming out |
| 18560s | of kou to maybe stall out maybe around |
| 18562s | this corner but they'll be down to this |
| 18564s | a matrix from Nat loock he has it early |
| 18566s | this is a long Lane that USA have to |
| 18569s | hide in they'll take shelter on the left |
| 18571s | side but they've lost Violet they'll |
| 18573s | respond with their own a matrix here |
| 18575s | from RuPaul but that's an easy disengage |
| 18577s | from France yeah France are more than |
| 18578s | happy to take that they pushed the card |
| 18580s | so far on this second Point as well now |
| 18582s | they can set themselves up for a |
| 18584s | Teleport play with pack on the symmetra |
| 18586s | Pack's going to go in alone put some |
| 18588s | pressure on the Widowmaker we need to |
| 18590s | see some shots get hit from hydron he |
| 18591s | hasn't found any purchase so far in this |
| 18593s | map there's the graph relux from poo |
| 18597s | Poco and USA barely able to contest here |
| 18600s | at the end of the day they are having to |
| 18602s | to force their way through this Photon |
| 18604s | barrier placed there by pack and USA |
| 18607s | haven't stood a chance so far haven't |
| 18610s | had a stop it's France that have been |
| 18612s | controlling this entire game Photon |
| 18615s | barrier perfectly placed I said hydr |
| 18617s | needs to hit a shot he can't hit a shot |
| 18618s | if there's a wall of Shield sitting in |
| 18621s | front of his face and right now Team USA |
| 18623s | are getting absolutely run over with |
| 18625s | just this FAS composition and that's why |
| 18628s | you're going to see the switch from |
| 18629s | hydron goes over to the Bastion realizes |
| 18632s | I can't get anything done with how fast |
| 18633s | France is playing on the Widowmaker I |
| 18635s | need to match the damage even the random |
| 18638s | bashad that sticked here have been just |
| 18640s | forcing hydron to be a lot more |
| 18643s | careful this is a good swap USA have the |
| 18645s | grappl of their own and France are all |
| 18647s | grouped up together maybe he could try |
| 18650s | and teleport out of USA get too |
| 18653s | aggressive the France look at how much |
| 18655s | space the USA are giving up they've |
| 18657s | given up the first corner and the second |
| 18658s | corner now France they're just going to |
| 18660s | teleport onto The High Ground all the |
| 18662s | grou the uh flare was eaten by Poco so |
| 18665s | there's nothing that Ultra is going to |
| 18666s | get from that ultimate yeah FR are just |
| 18668s | taking all the positions that they want |
| 18669s | out the Matrix is pulled and while |
| 18672s | they're all grouped up kou slams them |
| 18674s | down with the ground flux and finally |
| 18677s | USA get their first fight win all map |
| 18680s | and like you said they just gave so much |
| 18683s | space that it was one fight for point B |
| 18685s | one quote well not even a fight for |
| 18687s | point a like this is going by very fast |
| 18690s | yeah and Team USA they have to use a lot |
| 18692s | of ultimates to sort of slow that push |
| 18694s | just there as well the flux the |
| 18695s | overclock and the Alli ultimate now they |
| 18698s | have absolutely nothing only rupo with |
| 18701s | this amplification Matrix so France how |
| 18703s | are they going to maneuver they've been |
| 18704s | so smart with their TP so far they're |
| 18706s | going to teleport underneath Team USA |
| 18708s | take the positioning and get control of |
| 18709s | the cart once again good turret |
| 18711s | placement from the symmetra there of |
| 18713s | pack in case USA do decide to drop down |
| 18715s | now the sound barrier and the artillery |
| 18718s | USA getting overwhelmed again now using |
| 18720s | the healing of the pylon to hold their |
| 18723s | position and use the at Matrix to fire |
| 18726s | back it's just chaos and USA just have |
| 18729s | better focus fire at the end France were |
| 18732s | hiding and maybe weren't able to deliver |
| 18734s | as much damage and either way France |
| 18736s | will have to reset a much better |
| 18738s | response there from Team USA realizing |
| 18740s | that France are trying to maneuver |
| 18742s | around them so they actually push into |
| 18744s | them don't give them the freedom of just |
| 18746s | sitting in that room and pack actually |
| 18747s | got himself split off next to the stairs |
| 18750s | they just couldn't keep him alive so now |
| 18752s | all of a sudden the clock starts to |
| 18754s | dwindle that's 2 minutes off the clock |
| 18755s | but France still has 3 minutes remaining |
| 18757s | because of how quick their first two |
| 18759s | points were Now France can teleport but |
| 18762s | they also have the photon barrier oh and |
| 18764s | they just decide to speed right into USA |
| 18766s | while hydron is in tank forn Foreman |
| 18769s | he's the first to drop he's so immobile |
| 18771s | in that state and France knew and they |
| 18773s | pounced the 542 USA escaped without |
| 18777s | having to lose any more bodies but |
| 18778s | France are teleporting into them grab |
| 18780s | flux only focusing down kou and he's |
| 18783s | just getting pummeled to death but |
| 18785s | somehow kou still lives on rupall and |
| 18787s | UltraViolet great support and ultra |
| 18790s | violet holds on to that window position |
| 18793s | and he can free fire on that backline |
| 18795s | great disengage out of USA yeah |
| 18798s | ultraviolet showing a little bit of a a |
| 18800s | flick there onto the aggressive FD God |
| 18802s | Lucio and now all of a sudden you're |
| 18804s | going to see a switch over Pac goes over |
| 18806s | to the Genji poo over to the diva a very |
| 18809s | different look it's more of a dive style |
| 18811s | now they're going to play as a unit and |
| 18813s | try and get on top of Team USA which is |
| 18815s | going to be difficult with how much |
| 18816s | damage is coming out you see FD God |
| 18818s | almost Falls just trying to cross that |
| 18820s | distance oh yeah it's a lot of Po coming |
| 18823s | out of Team USA and look how forward cou |
| 18825s | is playing to stop them all in a corner |
| 18827s | that the artillery artillery strike from |
| 18830s | hydron H knocked down and the Poke is |
| 18833s | just so strong too you can't even |
| 18834s | discount what the flex supports of USA |
| 18836s | are doing and USA they're just sitting |
| 18838s | on this High ground waiting for France |
| 18840s | to get in and without the teleport is |
| 18842s | how do they close that distance they |
| 18844s | need to go together as a unit use the |
| 18846s | Genji deflex Poco can sort of mitigate |
| 18848s | some of the damage on the diva but right |
| 18851s | now it feels like they're just an uphill |
| 18853s | battle literally that they're never |
| 18854s | going to be able to get close the |
| 18856s | distance unless they start getting some |
| 18857s | ultimates online at least France were |
| 18859s | able to start that snowball which turned |
| 18860s | into an avalanche but USA seem |
| 18863s | stabilized here is hydron with the at |
| 18865s | Matrix plus spraying and praying a |
| 18868s | sprance burst into flames and they'll be |
| 18871s | back into spawn yet again with only |
| 18874s | being able to get one kill or zero in |
| 18877s | these fights it's tough for France to |
| 18879s | just even scratch the surface of this |
| 18881s | defense and USA have cycling their |
| 18883s | ultimates very well ultraviolet now has |
| 18886s | the allari ultimate so if France group |
| 18887s | up all of a sudden they could end up |
| 18889s | getting hit by that big AOE damage so |
| 18891s | poco's going to need to be focused on |
| 18893s | eating that one but even if they get |
| 18895s | through that K is coming up to the graic |
| 18897s | flux so many threats they have to deal |
| 18898s | with for Team France and it's tough to |
| 18901s | forward pH right FD got did he just did |
| 18903s | he just h no it's so tough to have that |
| 18908s | front-facing tank as I said with poco |
| 18910s | only having just limited amounts of |
| 18912s | Matrix so France are just way more |
| 18914s | exposed to damage than they previously |
| 18917s | were there that hurts right there for FD |
| 18920s | God they needed that extra Health that |
| 18922s | over Health Silver Lining they do have |
| 18924s | three ultimates on they're going to need |
| 18926s | some individual Brilliance from both of |
| 18927s | the DPS players pack with the Genji |
| 18930s | blade AO with the over over clock they |
| 18932s | need to find some |
| 18934s | picks all right the last fight for |
| 18936s | France after several minutes they're |
| 18937s | going to just go on the other side and |
| 18939s | force just try to get as much meterage |
| 18941s | as possible while Poco takes the |
| 18943s | attention and pack pressures them back |
| 18945s | USA are on the coast side and France now |
| 18947s | have the C contested it's up to pack to |
| 18950s | really pull through for France once and |
| 18952s | for all and France have so many |
| 18953s | ultimates that they can maybe even make |
| 18955s | the full push with they have to use two |
| 18958s | of their DPS ultimates but they are |
| 18960s | getting an advantage NW cannot full here |
| 18962s | needs to be very careful takes down hyr |
| 18965s | and the carts moving in overtime the |
| 18967s | spawns are going to be so long for Team |
| 18968s | USA they might close this out for Team |
| 18970s | France yeah the Nano and Poco |
| 18973s | self-destruct just for that second life |
| 18975s | the Nano's given over to pack and with |
| 18976s | FD go they hope to close the doors for |
| 18978s | the spawn once and for all but USA with |
| 18981s | the at Matrix couldn't support cou |
| 18983s | through the losos the artillery strike |
| 18985s | only weak against France but USA seem to |
| 18988s | have enough damage to maybe get a few |
| 18990s | kills but only sugarfree is there to |
| 18992s | contest a car one last time and Rupa |
| 18994s | will be there to assist but with the |
| 18996s | sound Barry that FD God was able to |
| 18997s | generate at the last second France |
| 18999s | should have enough sustain they just |
| 19001s | need to focus on these last two members |
| 19003s | here of USA and France will be able to |
| 19005s | cap but it's taking too long for France |
| 19007s | to finish the fight and now USA are |
| 19010s | almost back at full force oh the spawn |
| 19012s | doors are just too close for Team USA |
| 19014s | France can't get the members down the |
| 19016s | diva gets ultraviolet maybe they can do |
| 19018s | it |
| 19019s | still I oh my God that head shot but |
| 19022s | France pull through also with the swap |
| 19024s | of the Tracer of Alo and Poco that has |
| 19027s | been that French anchor that they have |
| 19029s | needed they will full cap after several |
| 19032s | minutes several attempts just to get |
| 19034s | through the initial part of Point C |
| 19036s | turned into a great momentum push for |
| 19038s | them the most drawn out overtime fight |
| 19041s | I've ever seen lots of first Happening |
| 19043s | Here on Circle Royale but Team France |
| 19046s | just able to Cap all three points and |
| 19049s | circle Royale as a whole is a very |
| 19051s | difficult map to full cap there's a lot |
| 19053s | of issues you can have on the first |
| 19055s | second and the third Point as you just |
| 19057s | saw from Team France so now Team USA yes |
| 19060s | they did manage to get the time bank |
| 19062s | down but at the end of the day they have |
| 19064s | a Monumental task to get all the way to |
| 19066s | the end to even take it into an overtime |
| 19069s | it's difficult to cap this map now we |
| 19072s | get to talk about that more what was it |
| 19073s | only once in OverWatch league history |
| 19076s | that we've had like a second round of |
| 19078s | attack or sorry a third round of attacks |
| 19080s | but um it is difficult to cap this map |
| 19083s | just with how that last point is just so |
| 19087s | good for the defense and you even saw |
| 19089s | the initial part of Point C can be very |
| 19092s | defendable too it's how really Team USA |
| 19095s | can create the same snowball that France |
| 19097s | did but that's still a winnable push for |
| 19100s | France absolutely and if you're Team USA |
| 19103s | now you have to be thinking what A Team |
| 19105s | France going to play the symmetra isn't |
| 19107s | going to work anywhere near as well on |
| 19109s | defense because it's hard to sort of |
| 19110s | push your objective they could could do |
| 19112s | it but it would be a lot more difficult |
| 19114s | than it was on offense and right now I'm |
| 19116s | just going to say it hydron hasn't been |
| 19118s | hitting the shots he needs to hit on the |
| 19120s | the Widowmaker so do they make a change |
| 19122s | of their own and sort of move towards |
| 19124s | just playing the more traditional |
| 19125s | Bastion and sigma and just playing the |
| 19127s | fundamentals better than Team France I |
| 19130s | think France had an edge just based on |
| 19132s | the surprise Factor right of teleporting |
| 19134s | into them you had the immediate Bastion |
| 19136s | nade which sticks to you they couldn't |
| 19138s | get away USA couldn't get away in time |
| 19140s | and then they were able to make that |
| 19142s | snowball push where Team USA were maybe |
| 19144s | still in a planning phase hesitating the |
| 19145s | fact that they didn't contest that point |
| 19147s | B Highway at that halfway point to |
| 19149s | create more fight opportunities it came |
| 19152s | down to just uh France having more |
| 19154s | ultimates at point B which created just |
| 19156s | this long push with what four minutes |
| 19158s | for Point C but once Team USA stabilized |
| 19161s | when there was more of a neutral fight |
| 19163s | yeah Team USA were the better team |
| 19165s | absolutely and I I think you have seen |
| 19168s | right spots for both teams so far in |
| 19169s | this series I think a lot of people were |
| 19171s | worried for Team France after their loss |
| 19173s | yesterday against Japan even though it |
| 19175s | was a close series people I guess have |
| 19177s | high expectations for Team France |
| 19179s | because of the history that they've had |
| 19180s | in OverWatch but they're taking it to |
| 19183s | one of the teams that we consider to be |
| 19184s | the favorites right now in the OverWatch |
| 19186s | World Cup and Team USA so some bright |
| 19188s | spots here for Team France and maybe if |
| 19190s | you're a USA fan maybe a little bit of |
| 19193s | like ooh this is a little bit closer for |
| 19194s | Comfort than I would like it's just cool |
| 19197s | that France clearly came in with |
| 19198s | different strategies I've seen like some |
| 19200s | teams that basically run this same |
| 19201s | composition where they don't have time |
| 19203s | to scrim or this is what works if it |
| 19205s | ain't broke don't fix it France has |
| 19207s | shown different signs of creativity even |
| 19209s | when the Nico sub didn't work out in the |
| 19212s | first match they brought in pack and AO |
| 19214s | who this is what World Cup is all about |
| 19217s | to feature new players to have that |
| 19218s | chance to travel to BlizzCon to face |
| 19221s | OverWatch League caliber Talent on the |
| 19224s | other side like that is a once in |
| 19225s | a-lifetime Opportunity um and well that |
| 19229s | opportunity is going to have to wait a |
| 19230s | little bit longer we have a technical |
| 19232s | pause coming out of one of our players |
| 19233s | so we're going to take a break we'll see |
| 19235s | you on the other |
| 19242s | [Music] |
| 19249s | [Music] |
| 19260s | side |
| 19265s | [Music] |
| 19283s | [Music] |
| 19320s | a |
| 19325s | [Music] |
| 19350s | oh |
| 19353s | [Music] |
| 19375s | oh what is a timer what is a kilometer I |
| 19377s | have so many questions nobody |
| 19379s | knows uh unbranded search engine is free |
| 19382s | but I'm busy casting right now cuz uh |
| 19384s | we're going to be getting into game very |
| 19385s | soon technical issue is all resolved and |
| 19387s | will be France defending up next yeah |
| 19391s | and Team USA have their backs against |
| 19393s | the wall right now all full capture |
| 19395s | three points there from Team France |
| 19397s | playing a very smart symmetra style but |
| 19399s | now we have to pose the question once |
| 19401s | again how do things change now that the |
| 19403s | sides are swapped could we see sugarfree |
| 19406s | going over to the Genji we've seen |
| 19407s | players try to do that uh in the past oh |
| 19410s | never mind we are we are unfortunately |
| 19412s | paused again so what is a pause there's |
| 19415s | a lot of questions being posed right now |
| 19417s | well when the game has halted |
| 19420s | um well kind of going back to our |
| 19423s | previous Point like France I think had a |
| 19425s | lot of success because they were able to |
| 19426s | surprise USA and have these creative |
| 19429s | strategies and we were thinking during |
| 19431s | the prank like what could France do on |
| 19433s | the defense to surprise USA there's |
| 19435s | playing in that corner room we saw uh |
| 19437s | well I guess benb best was in playing |
| 19439s | Queen now it's Poco which still they |
| 19441s | were playing that cor of kind of Speedy |
| 19443s | brawl so the Lucio and the sigma could |
| 19445s | still be in the cards or they could just |
| 19447s | stick to a more traditional defense to |
| 19450s | force as many fights as |
| 19452s | possible yeah it's it's impossible to |
| 19454s | know and honestly one of the things that |
| 19456s | I've really like from France they said |
| 19458s | it in the interview with Emily saying we |
| 19460s | just want to play our style I think |
| 19462s | yesterday they kind of got sucked into |
| 19463s | everything that team Japan was doing |
| 19465s | where they were playing doomfist and |
| 19467s | they just didn't look as coordinated in |
| 19469s | this match against Team USA they say we |
| 19471s | don't don't care what you're going to do |
| 19472s | we're going to play our style and make |
| 19473s | you play our game and so far it's |
| 19475s | working if they can find a way to do |
| 19477s | that once again then all of a sudden |
| 19479s | Team USA they might not be able to close |
| 19481s | out this map I wasn't even sure if |
| 19482s | France could close out that last attack |
| 19485s | um I don't know if we have I heard that |
| 19487s | we had a replay of that it was just all |
| 19489s | out chaos oh it looks like our teams are |
| 19491s | ready so we don't have to Banter over |
| 19492s | the the replay but yeah it didn't even |
| 19495s | look like France had enough bodies I |
| 19497s | think it was Poco and FD God I think the |
| 19499s | ones to hold it all down and you USA had |
| 19501s | respawns coming back I I'm surprised |
| 19503s | France captain at all kou lived for so |
| 19507s | long on that doomfist I thought it was |
| 19509s | going to be enough time for the rest of |
| 19510s | his team to consolidate but with how |
| 19512s | long the overtime spawns are just too |
| 19515s | hard for the rest of the players to get |
| 19516s | there so great play from France and now |
| 19518s | we're actually are going to see it |
| 19519s | France rolling out with pack on that |
| 19521s | symmetra once again so we actually have |
| 19524s | seen some a lot of different strategies |
| 19525s | from teams playing uh playing close as |
| 19528s | we're actually going to get some replays |
| 19529s | of the last attack from Team fr |
| 19531s | [Music] |
| 19534s | yeah this was when uh is this the oh |
| 19537s | right before the FD God Ajax I'm not |
| 19539s | sure but you see how Poco is not able to |
| 19540s | front face a lot of that damage he |
| 19542s | always has to go around look for boobs |
| 19544s | and I think kou was able to take a lot |
| 19546s | more pressure and I think that's why USA |
| 19548s | were able to hold on for that long yeah |
| 19551s | an important flux unfortunately for kou |
| 19553s | to miss in that moment so now Team USA |
| 19555s | they are going to move away from the |
| 19556s | snipers like I said they're going over |
| 19558s | to hydron on The Bash and sugarfree on |
| 19560s | the May this is is a very traditional |
| 19562s | way of playing the sigma composition |
| 19564s | you're just high damage output you can |
| 19566s | wall up behind the opposition opposition |
| 19568s | Sigma to cut them off from the rest of |
| 19569s | the team and hopefully get the damage to |
| 19571s | take someone out but France once again |
| 19573s | still playing that symmetra so they have |
| 19574s | the advantage of a |
| 19576s | teleporter see France or maybe hiding |
| 19579s | around this corner to surprise them once |
| 19581s | again are they going to want to teleport |
| 19582s | on top of this bridge it is a bit of a |
| 19585s | scary situation you don't want your |
| 19587s | Bastion to be in the middle of five |
| 19589s | people but the teleport I think onto |
| 19592s | ruple takes him out okay I was like |
| 19594s | where did they go they kind of Blended |
| 19595s | in with the white stairs there for a |
| 19596s | second so France all split up but |
| 19599s | managed to remove Rupal as you said and |
| 19602s | USA know that they can't take that fight |
| 19604s | without that support and that's what |
| 19606s | France need to keep doing they they have |
| 19608s | the Lucio they have the teleporters they |
| 19609s | need to be proactive and teleport onto |
| 19611s | the backline of USA find some punishers |
| 19613s | so that's a minute off the clock already |
| 19615s | for Team USA it's about building up |
| 19617s | these ultimates and eventually finding |
| 19618s | picks for Team USA so far this match |
| 19621s | they haven't been able to do it much |
| 19622s | Poco goes through the teleporter uses |
| 19624s | the the grass but this time Team USA saw |
| 19627s | coming he's got the speed of FD God I |
| 19629s | like that FD God's also looming on that |
| 19630s | wall to try and boot people out of that |
| 19632s | Shield but France of L at first corner |
| 19635s | now ready to fire back with the ant |
| 19637s | Matrix there from Nat loocks but the |
| 19639s | timing was a bit off us would say |
| 19640s | weren't even there yeah I think they |
| 19642s | were hoping to catch someone who was |
| 19644s | wide peing from Team USA but great |
| 19646s | discipline from Team USA see it coming |
| 19648s | fall back and now that's an ultimate ADV |
| 19650s | Koo goes up in the air from the gravitic |
| 19651s | flux can they keep him Alive looks like |
| 19653s | they can and now it's Team France who |
| 19655s | are losing members I think France are |
| 19657s | really desperate to confirm the kills |
| 19659s | that Poco set up off the flocks and then |
| 19660s | the ant me from Rupa was beautifully |
| 19662s | placed to defend kou in that moment and |
| 19666s | as France got desperate USA took |
| 19668s | advantage and that'll be the first cap |
| 19670s | which maybe slightly slower than France |
| 19672s | but still the card is rolling it didn't |
| 19674s | cost them very much that's the important |
| 19676s | part all of a sudden they have a |
| 19678s | gravitic flux Advantage which is very |
| 19680s | valuable especially when you're playing |
| 19681s | the Bastion you can combo the gravitic |
| 19683s | flux everyone goes up in the air they |
| 19685s | have to come back down and the Bastion |
| 19686s | can drop the artillery right where |
| 19688s | they're trying to land so keep an eye |
| 19689s | out for that one right here it's kou up |
| 19691s | too did he just whiff that flux is that |
| 19693s | another whiff flux coming out of cou I |
| 19695s | believe it might have been yeah I didn't |
| 19697s | see that hit anyone the artillery strike |
| 19699s | from AO right behind USA forces them |
| 19702s | into a fight and now the photon beer was |
| 19704s | placed France have a lot of protection |
| 19705s | including the sound be this is a huge |
| 19707s | investment but that was just the counter |
| 19709s | the blizzard plus the artill strike from |
| 19712s | hydron what a combo from Team USA to |
| 19716s | make up for kind of the start of the |
| 19718s | fight that didn't work out now the cart |
| 19720s | will keep rolling maybe a point B cap in |
| 19722s | sight yeah I believe France should get |
| 19725s | another opportunity to capture us to |
| 19727s | defend this second Point sorry they do |
| 19729s | have the amplification Matrix once again |
| 19731s | if they use this a little bit better but |
| 19732s | rupo will also on the other side have |
| 19735s | the ability to match it can be very |
| 19737s | difficult to fight back into this if you |
| 19738s | are Team France cuz your entire team is |
| 19740s | stuck in this choke you're actually |
| 19741s | going to see p teleport over to the left |
| 19743s | side and USA actually going to concede |
| 19745s | the positioning a little bit and just |
| 19747s | sort of step back but they're coming |
| 19748s | back in with the ant Matrix I like this |
| 19750s | ant Matrix from RuPaul you were hoping |
| 19751s | to catch for ants Crossing in front of |
| 19753s | the car to help Poco out who's kind of |
| 19755s | on his own Island there on the left side |
| 19757s | Nat loocks placing the ant Matrix to |
| 19759s | help France fire back against USA The |
| 19761s | Shield still alive and well from kou but |
| 19764s | he need to defend sugarfree while he's |
| 19765s | in that ice block form he can't |
| 19767s | reposition in that moment and USA are |
| 19769s | still alive now they've separated France |
| 19772s | and Poco away from the rest of his team |
| 19774s | that's a May from sugarfree yeah to |
| 19776s | block off the healing from that tank and |
| 19779s | France will just have to dump bodies to |
| 19781s | contest and reset as a team but USA |
| 19784s | continue on and you can see why Team USA |
| 19788s | they're wanting to play the slower |
| 19789s | composition you can see if France aren't |
| 19791s | able to get into the fight and sort of |
| 19792s | apply pressure with the Lucio and the |
| 19794s | symmetra they will lose the long drawn |
| 19796s | out fight they don't have as much |
| 19798s | healing the Lucio doesn't do anywhere |
| 19799s | near as much healing as the |
| 19801s | and the symmetra doesn't do any range |
| 19803s | damage so it feels like right now France |
| 19805s | need to go back to what was working for |
| 19807s | them they need to get back to playing |
| 19808s | their own game that's why they're trying |
| 19810s | to Route Around the left side right here |
| 19812s | and USA already have The High Ground |
| 19814s | France are on the coast side and that's |
| 19815s | not really where they want to be |
| 19817s | especially everyone is grouped up and |
| 19819s | fluxes are coming online for Poco and |
| 19822s | kou just using the fashion the tried |
| 19825s | breakr ultraviolet is insane with this |
| 19828s | captive Sun Brock son most of sprits and |
| 19831s | they just burst USA take the fight they |
| 19834s | still 3 minutes and half a point C to |
| 19837s | complete they still have one more fight |
| 19840s | they need to win France are going to |
| 19841s | have the closest spawns they will get |
| 19842s | another fight and they have a lot of |
| 19844s | ultimates to combo they have the |
| 19845s | gravitic flux and the basion artillery |
| 19847s | strike once again and you're going to |
| 19848s | see Team USA they're trying to play it |
| 19850s | Loy play around their own advantages oh |
| 19852s | that's a huge flux most of Kia's team is |
| 19855s | hit the ice block comes out and the |
| 19858s | artillery strike from AO just to send |
| 19860s | you stay back a little bit for now USA |
| 19863s | just relying on this amp Matrix but |
| 19865s | France not inside of that strike from |
| 19869s | hyron to maybe force some different |
| 19870s | positions out of France now they're on |
| 19872s | the left side the blizzard of sugarfree |
| 19874s | to try and stop anyone from contesting |
| 19877s | from the France side the sound bear from |
| 19879s | FD God should be enough sustain to push |
| 19881s | back USA in this fight such a small play |
| 19884s | from pack realizing that they they need |
| 19886s | to touch the point uses the symmetra |
| 19889s | teleporter to touch it slow down down |
| 19890s | the cart and then teleports out right |
| 19892s | before they get frozen so that's just |
| 19894s | great heads up play understanding how to |
| 19896s | play around the symmetra and deal with |
| 19897s | that sugar-free C9 blizzard that we just |
| 19900s | saw and now it gets difficult for Team |
| 19902s | USA we saw how difficult it was for |
| 19904s | France to close out this third Point USA |
| 19906s | is going to have the exact same issue |
| 19908s | they don't have any ultimates up lemon |
| 19910s | either it's only kou with the flux who's |
| 19912s | been questionable at best so far with |
| 19914s | this |
| 19915s | ultimate USA wanted to take positions |
| 19917s | around pool side and Poco has spotted it |
| 19919s | out France are going to give it up USA |
| 19924s | are they going to want to drop the card |
| 19925s | they're going to be forced to with this |
| 19926s | Photon barrier upack and even with the |
| 19928s | teleport I don't even know where that |
| 19930s | went but France are on the chase thanks |
| 19932s | to this Lucio of God France can force |
| 19934s | the fight even if USA aren't ready but |
| 19937s | it's currently USA who are up now one |
| 19939s | two and three kills as France couldn't |
| 19941s | finish off the targets when it felt like |
| 19943s | France had USA up against the wall it's |
| 19945s | USA that will be capping shortly with |
| 19948s | time to spare that's great play from the |
| 19951s | USA supports ultraviolent rup somehow |
| 19954s | keep kou alive he was getting chased by |
| 19956s | the entire team of Team France keep him |
| 19958s | alive long enough drops the gravitic |
| 19960s | flux and then all of a sudden it was a |
| 19962s | trap for Team France it will go into |
| 19964s | overtime and France will get another |
| 19966s | opportunity to attack because we are on |
| 19968s | escort but Team USA they're going to |
| 19970s | have a minute and 16sec |
| 19973s | advantage that's a difference of what a |
| 19975s | fight or two and with how difficult it's |
| 19978s | been for both of these teams to get |
| 19979s | through points see you're going to need |
| 19981s | all the time you can get but with one |
| 19983s | minute France I think my expectations is |
| 19986s | can you at least get point a with that |
| 19988s | one minute yes on their last attack they |
| 19991s | made that very Swift but it was off of a |
| 19994s | teleporter play that maybe USA weren't |
| 19995s | expecting so now that are you going to |
| 19998s | want to rinse and repeat that strategy |
| 20000s | France are going for yes but how are USA |
| 20002s | going to adapt to that yeah the jig is |
| 20004s | probably up for Team France I believe |
| 20006s | Team USA are going to expect the |
| 20008s | symmetra come out they're going to be |
| 20009s | more prepared for these teleporters so |
| 20011s | their backliners can play a little bit |
| 20013s | smarter and we can see trying to sort of |
| 20015s | handle this one and this is how they |
| 20016s | kept alive look at how far that lamp was |
| 20018s | from the supports were nowhere near kou |
| 20020s | where they needed to be but then kou |
| 20022s | just able to live long enough just able |
| 20024s | to stay up with both supports and then |
| 20027s | boom CL lives long enough drops the flux |
| 20029s | USA close it out that's tough I can't |
| 20032s | count the amount of times I've missed |
| 20034s | just jumped out of immortality just |
| 20036s | there's so many colors so many people in |
| 20037s | front of me you don't notice that |
| 20039s | barrier but either way France broken out |
| 20043s | of their spawn room doors USA keeping |
| 20045s | eyes on them to see well I guess there's |
| 20047s | not going to be a teleporter playing up |
| 20050s | they they want to just play the may I |
| 20052s | think realizing that the symmetra is |
| 20053s | probably not going to work a second time |
| 20054s | around just go to the may give |
| 20056s | themselves a little bit more of an |
| 20057s | advantage so the only difference right |
| 20059s | now is the allari for ultraviolet versus |
| 20061s | the Lucio of FD God so how are France |
| 20063s | going to use this speed boost from FD |
| 20065s | God to give themselves an advantage good |
| 20067s | May wall to behind kou would be huge and |
| 20070s | that kind of Misses kou manages to |
| 20072s | escape in that left fashion show room |
| 20075s | France got to hope that they can build |
| 20077s | up this ampt Matrix and for Nat locks |
| 20078s | it's been significantly quicker than |
| 20080s | Rupal and this could be what decides |
| 20082s | this last fight yeah this is going to be |
| 20085s | a make it or breaker 14 te France sugar |
| 20087s | free is getting very close to a blizzard |
| 20088s | they need to keep an eye on that one |
| 20090s | goes under the C so it's moving oh and |
| 20092s | hydron Peaks too much sugar Free's in |
| 20094s | trouble as well oh this might be falling |
| 20096s | apart for Team USA unless they can |
| 20097s | stabilize such a big brain air from that |
| 20100s | as you said it's moving so it manages to |
| 20102s | get around the corner and sugarfree was |
| 20104s | hoping to ice block on the cart to buy |
| 20106s | USA some time and France it was all up |
| 20110s | to Nat loocks in that amp Matrix to win |
| 20112s | them the fight and with that one minute |
| 20114s | we were hoping that they got the point a |
| 20115s | cap so they did but now how far do you |
| 20117s | go from here in overtime and importantly |
| 20120s | ruple trying to turn that fight around |
| 20122s | used his own amplification Matrix so |
| 20124s | they don't have an advantage in that |
| 20126s | respects and we're in overtime in |
| 20128s | overtimes on escorts if Team USA loses |
| 20131s | one fight they'll lose the second point |
| 20132s | and they'll likely only get one maybe |
| 20134s | two fights on the third point so every |
| 20136s | Ultimate matters they need to stop this |
| 20138s | push right now otherwise their time |
| 20140s | Advantage isn't going to matter well AO |
| 20143s | is going to force USA back this |
| 20146s | ultimate seems like USA want to be ready |
| 20148s | to engage off of this blizzard trigger |
| 20150s | free can even go through this right side |
| 20151s | if he wants to catch France off guard |
| 20153s | but just decides to go through Fran in |
| 20155s | front sugar free dies he's not able to |
| 20157s | use the blizzard the stound bear from FD |
| 20159s | got to is more than enough Su stain |
| 20161s | France have to send the house and USA |
| 20164s | are around the corner hoping to play as |
| 20166s | conservatively as possible so that they |
| 20168s | can contest again from the May wall and |
| 20170s | theard at the door pack does he win this |
| 20174s | fight for France point B it's Captain |
| 20177s | USA can't do anything about it that was |
| 20180s | so smart from Team PR they realized they |
| 20183s | have the player Advantage just drop the |
| 20184s | blizzard keep everything moving they're |
| 20186s | trying to find another pick can hydron |
| 20188s | get out no he falls as well it's getting |
| 20190s | from bad to worst just cascading effect |
| 20192s | of just finding more and more Advantage |
| 20194s | for Team France and USA they don't |
| 20197s | really have that many ultimate to handle |
| 20199s | this as well they gave up their flux and |
| 20201s | they're moving in and they're going to |
| 20202s | have to deal with a Poco flux of their |
| 20203s | own as long as they can stay on the C |
| 20206s | versus this sugar-free blizzard they |
| 20207s | should be in a good spot yeah Francis |
| 20209s | fight planning has been so good at |
| 20211s | removing sugarfree earlier on artillery |
| 20213s | strike from hyr right on top of he's |
| 20216s | in the immortality field he jumps down |
| 20218s | into the Blizzard or at least was going |
| 20219s | to be Frozen either way lot of damage |
| 20222s | went into USA it's three versus three |
| 20225s | and it's up to Poco but with this may |
| 20227s | all up in his SP it's so difficult for |
| 20229s | France to live on through but still with |
| 20232s | the one minute that they had this is a |
| 20234s | winable push for France can't be unhappy |
| 20237s | with that push that was great play about |
| 20239s | halfway through that third point just |
| 20241s | there regardless of the two and you know |
| 20244s | 2 minutes and a quarter the Team USA |
| 20246s | they're going to have to find some |
| 20248s | similar type of push where they find |
| 20250s | advantages and they're able to snowball |
| 20252s | it Circa Royale positioning is king So |
| 20255s | if they're able to just continue to hold |
| 20257s | that position and find their advantages |
| 20259s | they can do the same thing but it is |
| 20261s | difficult if France stay composed they |
| 20263s | should be able to close out this map and |
| 20265s | take us to map |
| 20268s | three I like the switch up from France |
| 20270s | too the fact that this may worked out |
| 20272s | and when it's maybe Nico's gone as a |
| 20275s | coach you know it's just okay this is |
| 20277s | how you play May and I think just the |
| 20278s | fight planning we've highlighted from |
| 20280s | France the May wals the wind conditions |
| 20282s | realizing what USA have with that |
| 20284s | sugar-free blizzard which felt like USA |
| 20286s | were hesitating on when to really throw |
| 20289s | that blizzard they almost wanted to |
| 20290s | react and counter what France were doing |
| 20293s | but the initiative from France is what |
| 20295s | ended up winning them so many fights so |
| 20297s | wish that sugar-free blizzard came out a |
| 20298s | bit earlier well I have to give props to |
| 20301s | Poco that that accretion rock onto |
| 20304s | sugarfree he was trying to drop that |
| 20306s | blizzard on the second point and Poco |
| 20307s | actually rocks him off the off the side |
| 20310s | of the I guess you know uturn and |
| 20313s | sugarfree Falls and from there that big |
| 20315s | tool that they needed to close out the |
| 20316s | fight was no longer there so Poco we |
| 20318s | know him for the Poco bombs but we're |
| 20320s | getting to see some Poco Sigma right now |
| 20321s | making big plays as |
| 20323s | well all right just a one minute or so |
| 20326s | Advantage from Team USA but here's that |
| 20327s | corner play I was talking about with |
| 20329s | France with a teleporter so they can |
| 20331s | jump to both sides of Team USA USA are |
| 20334s | trying to run as much as they can and |
| 20335s | pack is generating DPS but so many |
| 20338s | targets of USA were low but France could |
| 20340s | not coordinate to finish them off it's a |
| 20342s | 4K for kou as USA march on I like the |
| 20347s | idea there from France they just weren't |
| 20348s | able to execute that was a great Rock |
| 20350s | from kou instantly hits pack on the way |
| 20352s | out of the door but that's what France |
| 20354s | wanted they wanted to take an early |
| 20355s | fight because they know they can take a |
| 20357s | better fight at the back end of this |
| 20358s | first point the one thing that they are |
| 20360s | going to have to be worried about |
| 20361s | because kou got that 4K he's already 60% |
| 20364s | to a gravitic flux if he gets that one |
| 20366s | way earlier than France expect it could |
| 20368s | close up this first point very quickly |
| 20369s | and because that fight wasn't extended |
| 20371s | the ant Matrix of nlock was a big win |
| 20373s | condition for France and they're both |
| 20375s | around the same percentage it'll be that |
| 20378s | grab flux coming up soon hydron is |
| 20380s | getting brought from behind because Pack |
| 20382s | teleported France behind USA But USA |
| 20385s | decided to just focus on the Frontline |
| 20387s | battle and then turned to deal with the |
| 20389s | low HP targets behind USA are dealing |
| 20392s | with the chaos very very well and with |
| 20395s | AO gone France don't have the DPS to |
| 20398s | even make this winnable so us say will |
| 20400s | be capping a because of that great |
| 20402s | sugar-free wall nlock gets picked off |
| 20404s | and from there France just don't have |
| 20406s | the healing and that should be a first |
| 20407s | point capture and if you're Team France |
| 20409s | you need to not panic right you have |
| 20411s | time you still only need to really win |
| 20413s | one fight okay never mind they're going |
| 20415s | for the last second contest this is a |
| 20416s | dangerous |
| 20418s | play he captive Sun but nlock probably |
| 20421s | has immortality now that you spot that |
| 20423s | out well USA actually winning without |
| 20425s | ultimates what a drop France maybe |
| 20427s | weren't expecting it France know how to |
| 20430s | get out of that situation mainly keeping |
| 20432s | pack and Appo safe which are the most |
| 20433s | vulnerable members on that team I wonder |
| 20436s | almost if team France's idea there is to |
| 20438s | rush into Team USA and hope they use a |
| 20440s | lot of ultimates because Team France |
| 20442s | didn't commit anything to that fight |
| 20443s | they just wanted to fight early so we |
| 20445s | are going with 10 seconds remaining into |
| 20447s | overtime if France wins one more fight |
| 20449s | they will win the map and they have a |
| 20450s | lot of ultimates but so does Team |
| 20453s | USA all right the grab flux from kou FD |
| 20456s | God holding onto the sound barrier and |
| 20458s | you got nowes by himself using the ant |
| 20460s | Matrix maybe ABA wanted a piece of it |
| 20462s | repositions the BW still in his face and |
| 20464s | France are still getting organized and |
| 20467s | this captive sun is just all over AO but |
| 20469s | France still did a good dent into USA |
| 20472s | it's not over yet it's three versus |
| 20474s | three it's up to UV and Poco is the |
| 20477s | anchor for France but for no longer as |
| 20480s | USA only have a few more members and |
| 20481s | point B inside it's overtime too it's do |
| 20484s | or die that was absolute chaos and USA |
| 20487s | used absolutely everything as well FD go |
| 20490s | with the sound barrier pack with the |
| 20491s | photon barrier you have to believe that |
| 20493s | Team France has a big advantage in this |
| 20495s | fight especially because Team USA |
| 20496s | players are still trying to reinforce |
| 20498s | the point while Team France they're all |
| 20499s | together here's the speed teleport fake |
| 20503s | from P Photon barrier splits up uh at |
| 20506s | least keeping their half of the cart |
| 20508s | Team USA can just hold their own as this |
| 20511s | will kind of stalemate out the fight FD |
| 20513s | got holding onto the sound bear this |
| 20514s | will be the sustain that they need and |
| 20517s | there is the engage France running after |
| 20519s | USA having ultraviolet isolated is huge |
| 20522s | too USA cannot continue on the fight |
| 20525s | planning just too good out of France as |
| 20528s | they will even up the series one to one |
| 20530s | team France played very composed they |
| 20532s | understood that they didn't need to just |
| 20534s | blow the sound barrier and the photon |
| 20536s | barrier off the bat they both do the |
| 20538s | same thing they keep them up they keep |
| 20539s | them sustained drop the wall on the cart |
| 20542s | get kou very low because he has to keep |
| 20544s | contesting the point and then after kou |
| 20546s | gets low engaged with the sound barrier |
| 20548s | there's nothing Team USA can do |
| 20550s | great team play from Team France taking |
| 20552s | it to Team USA an unlikely match up |
| 20554s | people didn't have Team France pushing |
| 20557s | Team USA this close to the edge huge |
| 20560s | change UPS from France going from losing |
| 20562s | to to Japan to now taking a map from |
| 20565s | everyone regarding Team USA is being one |
| 20567s | of the best in all of World Cup so huge |
| 20571s | turnarounds from France and we talked |
| 20573s | about just good leadership on this team |
| 20575s | and I wonder if that's the difference |
| 20576s | that Poco makes too yeah Poco he's |
| 20579s | always been being a cool K and |
| 20580s | Collective player you know all the way |
| 20582s | back from his days with the Philadelphia |
| 20583s | Fusion he was he was just known to |
| 20585s | always be a very I don't want to say |
| 20587s | monotone but just a very calm person in |
| 20590s | those coms and you can see that coming |
| 20592s | through on this team he has a lot of |
| 20593s | rookies to play with aop Pac nlock |
| 20595s | they're not as experienced players on |
| 20597s | the international stage yet they were |
| 20599s | able to keep their call against some of |
| 20600s | the best players in the |
| 20602s | world sometimes it's not as much about |
| 20604s | the mechanics but more about your |
| 20606s | positions your rotations and good |
| 20608s | placements of those cool Downs when to |
| 20610s | use the Matrix Nat loocks had a perfect |
| 20612s | play to even place it on top of the card |
| 20614s | at some moment to win them point a to |
| 20617s | poco's grab flux is being followed up |
| 20619s | with and FD got always these well time |
| 20621s | sound bearers with you know the one ax |
| 20623s | is one thing but 90% of the time these |
| 20626s | sound beers have made a huge difference |
| 20628s | for the sustain of Team France to live |
| 20630s | on in these extended fights now we await |
| 20633s | the Team USA Choice a map of either |
| 20635s | flash point or |
| 20636s | push I wonder where that's going to go |
| 20639s | where where USA is going to go because |
| 20641s | obviously in the head-to-head matchup |
| 20643s | where they weren't playing the sigmas |
| 20645s | USA looked you know they look like they |
| 20647s | have that flexibility to be able to do |
| 20649s | it so you could go to flasho it plays |
| 20651s | very similarly to control push can |
| 20654s | sometimes be I don't want to say a coin |
| 20656s | flip but anything can happen you win a |
| 20658s | couple of Team fights you snowball |
| 20659s | things anything can happen and new Queen |
| 20661s | Street is going to be the choice for |
| 20663s | Team USA I feel like H with push a lot |
| 20667s | of teams like uh to play Lucio and |
| 20670s | France already having kind of that Sigma |
| 20672s | Lucio brawl May bode well for them too |
| 20675s | but USA have been one of the most |
| 20677s | confident teams probably in all of World |
| 20678s | Cup but especially in their group they |
| 20680s | think they're number one and France want |
| 20681s | to prove them wrong and we'll see who's |
| 20683s | right or wrong after this |
| 20684s | [Music] |
| 20698s | break |
| 20715s | [Music] |
| 20728s | oh |
| 20735s | [Music] |
| 20788s | yeah |
| 20791s | [Music] |
| 20809s | [Music] |
| 20818s | a |
| 20844s | [Music] |
| 20848s | let's |
| 20852s | [Music] |
| 20878s | he |
| 20879s | another game three today it's a close |
| 20882s | battle between France and USA and woo |
| 20885s | what a turn around for France first look |
| 20888s | at Team USA they they look pretty |
| 20890s | beatable yeah they and that's really the |
| 20893s | big takeaway that I've had from this |
| 20894s | series like we know that Team USA has |
| 20897s | strength but the question no not not |
| 20900s | just this series in general but is Team |
| 20902s | USA going to be able to go the distance |
| 20904s | can they repeat what they did in 2019 |
| 20906s | because they are the reigning Champs we |
| 20908s | all saw the picture of super sitting in |
| 20910s | the The Throne AKA gaming chair in front |
| 20913s | of the trophy and they're trying to |
| 20914s | defend their title yet still here super |
| 20917s | fans punching air because super is not |
| 20919s | coming in for map three on new Queen |
| 20921s | Street but there are some subs here for |
| 20922s | Team France as Nico comes in to replace |
| 20925s | pack which indicates to me lemon that |
| 20927s | they're going to be playing more may |
| 20929s | less symmetra yeah I think that the |
| 20932s | symmetra had some cool ideas to get to |
| 20934s | certain positions on the map that are |
| 20936s | difficult to rotate to if you're exposed |
| 20937s | to a lot of poke and maybe that surprise |
| 20939s | factor that France use to win a couple |
| 20941s | of fights against us Photon barrier very |
| 20943s | very strong but it's a difficult uh |
| 20947s | Brawl character to play in the middle of |
| 20949s | all that chaos she's very vulnerable so |
| 20951s | I like that if you're going to May seems |
| 20953s | to be their plan B option and if Nico |
| 20955s | that is his bread and butter then you go |
| 20957s | with someone who is more confident more |
| 20959s | experience because May is very cool down |
| 20961s | dependent if you miss that may wal that |
| 20963s | is a big win condition that you're |
| 20965s | creating right the ice block if you ice |
| 20967s | block at the wrong position that could |
| 20969s | just kill the fight for you and really |
| 20970s | kill your uh kill your may as well so |
| 20974s | like to see Nico back in yeah yeah no |
| 20977s | absolutely like I think there's so many |
| 20979s | intricacies that comes with May and I |
| 20981s | think the best maze in the world really |
| 20983s | show how it's done and Nico historically |
| 20985s | when he played in the OverWatch League |
| 20986s | he was known for his his may play he |
| 20989s | played on the Paris Eternal he came in |
| 20991s | to be sort of that may pinch hitter from |
| 20993s | time to time let's see if he can do that |
| 20995s | once again here for Team France but on |
| 20997s | the other side for Team USA |
| 20999s | I think you are starting to see some of |
| 21001s | the weaknesses of having the ultraviolet |
| 21003s | ruple support setup because they are |
| 21006s | trying their best to move away from |
| 21008s | playing the Lucio they didn't come with |
| 21009s | three supports they decided to not pick |
| 21011s | up a primarily Lucio player and at some |
| 21014s | points it felt like they weren't able to |
| 21015s | keep up with the pace of Team France I |
| 21017s | wonder if that will be a common thing as |
| 21020s | we go further in the tournament yeah OG |
| 21022s | did end up trying out and I thought he |
| 21024s | did very well but yeah the lack of Lucio |
| 21027s | means the double Flex you thought was |
| 21028s | going to be meta with maybe Sigma coming |
| 21030s | in and you have a lot of poke and that's |
| 21031s | where Rupal and UltraViolet were best at |
| 21034s | um but with the speed that FD God brings |
| 21036s | and his experience on that character |
| 21038s | France can dictate a lot of these fights |
| 21040s | and sometimes just overwhelm United |
| 21043s | States just in all the chaos that is |
| 21045s | being surrounded by a bunch of people so |
| 21048s | Poco I think was a really good leader |
| 21050s | for France I'm glad that he's staying in |
| 21051s | the lineup and he front lines very well |
| 21054s | and he made some big plays not only on |
| 21057s | this you know diva in this final push to |
| 21059s | get you know Team France across the edge |
| 21061s | but you know playing the sigma he took |
| 21063s | Toe to Toe with Kio who's a great Sigma |
| 21066s | player and he hit some important rocks |
| 21068s | right that big rock onto sugarfree in |
| 21069s | the overtime push and you know kou we |
| 21072s | also saw great plays from him on the |
| 21074s | sigma but also the doomfist like this |
| 21076s | very narrowly was enough to close it out |
| 21078s | but he just had nowhere to go from here |
| 21080s | goes down to 11 |
| 21082s | Health yeah that circuit Royale was so |
| 21085s | so close and we go to our map decider of |
| 21088s | new que treat which is team USA's Choice |
| 21092s | with a substitution from France where I |
| 21095s | thought pack and AO were doing really |
| 21097s | well despite being sort of contenders |
| 21099s | level players or at least they don't |
| 21100s | they lack that OverWatch League |
| 21101s | experience going going up against Hydra |
| 21103s | and sugarfree you thought that this was |
| 21105s | going to be the hugest DPS Gap but it |
| 21107s | was about fight planning when you have a |
| 21109s | leader that can calm your new players |
| 21110s | down maybe this is your first time at |
| 21112s | the World Cup nerves are there and you |
| 21115s | just have a stable team it doesn't look |
| 21118s | like a mixed uh experienced team on the |
| 21120s | France side and that's something that |
| 21122s | makes OverWatch World Cup in general |
| 21124s | special you have some of the teams of |
| 21127s | the best players in the world and some |
| 21128s | players that would potentially never get |
| 21130s | the opportunity to play against these |
| 21132s | guys are able to do it and show what |
| 21134s | they have and what they can do right not |
| 21136s | a lot of people had sort of slated Team |
| 21138s | France to be able to go and step up but |
| 21141s | you said it AO and pack have really |
| 21142s | stepped up in a big way and taken it to |
| 21144s | the likes of players like sugarfree and |
| 21146s | hydron like you just said and right now |
| 21148s | I I think they either are going even |
| 21150s | with him or potentially even getting a |
| 21151s | slightly better edge of the stick at |
| 21153s | least on circuit Royale because right |
| 21155s | now sugarfree and hydron they are this |
| 21156s | DPS Duo that's supposed to be a |
| 21158s | Powerhouse they haven't shown up that |
| 21160s | way so far in this series and if things |
| 21162s | don't go well for USA and they drop 0 |
| 21165s | and one it's just going to make Group D |
| 21167s | even crazier like everyone's been saying |
| 21169s | Group D is feeling like the group of |
| 21171s | death with with KSA Japan who have been |
| 21175s | sort of that dark horse that Underdog |
| 21177s | that everyone's been talking about out |
| 21178s | after how well they performed against |
| 21180s | France USA being you know that world |
| 21183s | champion to France also having a good |
| 21185s | roster like who knows who's going to |
| 21187s | come out of group D if USA don't pull |
| 21190s | through in game three absolutely I like |
| 21192s | I completely agree I would say France is |
| 21195s | definitely a stepping stone for Team USA |
| 21197s | tomorrow they go up against KSA like you |
| 21199s | just said and that's going to be an |
| 21201s | interesting match cuz KSA plays a very |
| 21203s | different style they more than willing |
| 21205s | to go over the Farah but just today we |
| 21207s | saw KSA play and they played up against |
| 21209s | Japan it was pretty close but KSA |
| 21212s | definitely with a dominant performance |
| 21213s | and if they can get that you know win |
| 21216s | over you know some of these other teams |
| 21218s | all of a sudden it starts to be like |
| 21220s | well can Team USA match team KSA and |
| 21224s | we'll have to see so everything on the |
| 21226s | line for Team USA they need to close it |
| 21227s | out on their map pick of new Queen |
| 21229s | Street well least Team USA don't have to |
| 21231s | worry about a random Symetra teleporter |
| 21233s | and having to keep your eyes behind you |
| 21234s | too because France were good at |
| 21236s | teleporting behind USA and creating |
| 21239s | these pinch scenarios where that are |
| 21241s | often successful for France eventually |
| 21242s | USA were able to crack that and hold |
| 21245s | their focus a bit better in those |
| 21246s | moments but now that Nico is in you're |
| 21248s | not going to see the symmetra they cfd |
| 21251s | got in the lineup that's been mostly |
| 21252s | Lucio that we've seen out of France so |
| 21255s | USA as long as they respect that spacing |
| 21257s | they know how to disengage which they've |
| 21259s | been really good at on circuit Royale I |
| 21260s | think USA can handle these fights a lot |
| 21262s | better absolutely and the player that I |
| 21265s | want to keep my eye on in this map is |
| 21266s | hydron so hydron is going to play the |
| 21268s | flanking Soldier hyr going to play their |
| 21271s | completely own game they're just going |
| 21272s | to try and be a constant thorn in the |
| 21274s | side of Team France trying to get these |
| 21276s | angles put out damage and try and find |
| 21277s | picks onto the backline while the rest |
| 21279s | of Team USA is just going to try and |
| 21280s | hold their ground see hydron to at the |
| 21284s | bottom of that tunnel France are a |
| 21286s | little bit split up FD God is assisting |
| 21288s | Nico to rotate to mainly dual |
| 21291s | ultraviolet who's sitting at that top |
| 21292s | window so sort of Min fights taking |
| 21295s | place at different areas and France can |
| 21297s | do that because they're playing a |
| 21299s | USA having ultraviolet play at these off |
| 21301s | angles with the pylon is a good idea too |
| 21304s | Hy Dr with the speed that Soldier |
| 21306s | provides as you mentioned can just keep |
| 21308s | rotating around USA but look at his aim |
| 21311s | she's managing to take down Appo that is |
| 21313s | a bulk of Fran's damage gone they have |
| 21315s | to rely on Nico Poco is stunned up cuse |
| 21318s | is low and this is all about Focus fire |
| 21321s | and USA just being better at that and |
| 21325s | you can see why Kus is playing the Arisa |
| 21327s | collusion sugar live for so long with |
| 21330s | the entirety of Team France running them |
| 21331s | down and that just gives hydron time to |
| 21334s | find those Pi ultraviolet as well to |
| 21336s | find those picks also playing in the off |
| 21337s | angle with the allari and you can see |
| 21339s | these two different strategies they're |
| 21341s | going to be going back and forth France |
| 21342s | once again need to be the initiators and |
| 21345s | USA are they going to be able to hold on |
| 21347s | and is hydron going to be able to find |
| 21348s | picks like that that tracking was |
| 21350s | Flawless from hydron to take downo in |
| 21353s | that at the start of that fight Matrix |
| 21355s | and Rupal just evaporates immediately |
| 21358s | the rest of USA managed to run away but |
| 21360s | kou is in no man's land sugarfree should |
| 21363s | just try to die on the bot too and at |
| 21365s | least get a contest out of it but hydron |
| 21367s | wherever he is is getting random picks |
| 21370s | he's over on the Statue side and ultrav |
| 21371s | Violet's also on that off angle so |
| 21373s | despite USA maybe not winning this fight |
| 21375s | you slow France down with these picks |
| 21377s | and it's not bad for USA and it's so |
| 21380s | difficult for Team France to be able to |
| 21381s | punish either Ultra VI all hydron they |
| 21383s | both have great tools of escaping with |
| 21386s | their Heroes so if you try and run them |
| 21388s | down they just just going to run away |
| 21389s | and then all of a sudden threats come |
| 21390s | from all over the place so USA really |
| 21392s | putting on a master class of how you |
| 21394s | play what has been dubbed shooter comps |
| 21396s | where you just sort of spread around and |
| 21397s | just shoot the opposition and don't give |
| 21399s | them any options to run you down yeah |
| 21401s | USA are forcing these isolated duels |
| 21403s | where maybe they believe in the more |
| 21404s | individual prowess of their players |
| 21407s | versus maybe the more team chemistry |
| 21409s | that I'm seeing out of France for now |
| 21411s | though USA playing around the corner but |
| 21413s | hydron he's going unseen he has a |
| 21416s | tactical visor but France quite far away |
| 21419s | and the gra flx from Poco used to zone |
| 21421s | out this Soldier and the captain the |
| 21426s | explodes France and USA continue on to |
| 21429s | get the forward spawns and that was just |
| 21432s | so many ultimates Team USA threw a |
| 21434s | France they tried to engage with that |
| 21436s | gravitic flux but it just was not enough |
| 21439s | to hold up even FD God using the sound |
| 21441s | barrier so now Team France they because |
| 21443s | they don't have the same symmetra they |
| 21445s | can't do the TP plays like we saw them |
| 21447s | do on Circle Royale so right now it just |
| 21449s | feels like they're being constantly |
| 21451s | surrounded and peppered with damage and |
| 21453s | so far they're just getting picked |
| 21454s | before the fight even |
| 21455s | begins pretty forward blizzard to saw at |
| 21458s | least get a kill onto Poco but this is a |
| 21461s | momentum push for USA to say the least |
| 21464s | 75 M and more this is going to be tough |
| 21468s | for France to retake of course there's |
| 21469s | plenty of time but USA haven't been |
| 21472s | stopped yet I'm worried yeah it it's |
| 21474s | getting a little worried the only time |
| 21476s | things halted for a little bit was when |
| 21477s | Nico get that great right click through |
| 21479s | the amplification Matrix but other than |
| 21481s | that it feels like they've just been |
| 21483s | Chasing Ghosts unable to find a single |
| 21485s | pick you see fdgard and AO running down |
| 21488s | the flank trying to get a pick here onto |
| 21490s | I believe that's ultraviolet yeah |
| 21492s | ultraviolet and the others but they |
| 21493s | weren't even to F anything and Ultra |
| 21495s | Violet's the one who gets the pick how |
| 21497s | does that happen ultraviolet and hydron |
| 21500s | are menaces on this backline France are |
| 21502s | trying to do a better job of marking |
| 21504s | that because that's how France have been |
| 21506s | losing they lost a grab flux just to |
| 21509s | scare hydron they didn't even hit him |
| 21511s | with it and France are continuing to |
| 21513s | struggle by because they're getting |
| 21514s | surrounded by USA and they're panicking |
| 21518s | ultraviolet has so much confidence right |
| 21520s | now you can see playing aggressive not |
| 21522s | afraid of anyone from Team France NCO |
| 21524s | was still holding on to this blizzard |
| 21526s | hasn't found a good opportunity who do |
| 21528s | you blizzard on the side of Team USA you |
| 21529s | can't just throw it at the backline |
| 21531s | doesn't work on on Arisa doesn't work on |
| 21533s | a May and FD God's dead before the |
| 21534s | fights even begun once again mechanics |
| 21537s | on this play by Team USA we had |
| 21539s | criticisms about the double Flex support |
| 21542s | but they're showing us why it works |
| 21544s | ultraviolet is just simply the third DPS |
| 21548s | as Team USA looks to full cap at one of |
| 21550s | the fastest times I have ever seen Team |
| 21554s | USA take the |
| 21556s | series some of those concerns that |
| 21559s | myself and maybe others were having |
| 21560s | about Team USA they seem to get squashed |
| 21562s | a little bit as we went onto new Queen |
| 21564s | Street that was just great play from |
| 21567s | Team USA individual mechanics and |
| 21569s | Brilliance being shown right there from |
| 21572s | every single player popping off in each |
| 21574s | moment in Team France with with them not |
| 21577s | playing the symmetra anymore it just |
| 21578s | didn't feel like they had an answer and |
| 21580s | that's that confidence showing through |
| 21582s | from Team USA to have ultraviolet and |
| 21585s | hydron constantly on the flank and with |
| 21588s | the aim too that hydron had the kind of |
| 21591s | low bursts of damage at Soldier you know |
| 21593s | why people don't like Soldier as much as |
| 21595s | other choices of hit scan hyon proves |
| 21597s | that with good enough aim you could |
| 21598s | still get picks with it and just be such |
| 21600s | a nuisance even with arari from |
| 21603s | ultraviolet the 3K captive Sun easily my |
| 21607s | MVP of the match has to be UV yeah |
| 21609s | absolutely I think there were individual |
| 21611s | pop off plays from lot of them but UV |
| 21612s | really stepped up when it mattered most |
| 21614s | in certain situations especially in that |
| 21616s | third map but also we see USA go one |
| 21619s | and0 in the group the group of death |
| 21621s | Group D but Team France goes 0 and2 |
| 21624s | they're not completely out but it's |
| 21625s | going to be a hard path forward if |
| 21627s | they're going to make it to Blue gone |
| 21628s | yeah and France's next opponent is going |
| 21631s | to be KSA so that is a that's a tough |
| 21634s | one all of group all everybody in that |
| 21637s | group of Group D is is a team that are |
| 21639s | very capable of qualifying can't believe |
| 21642s | we had another game three today so |
| 21644s | excited to hear what the desk thinks so |
| 21646s | over to |
| 21648s | soe thank you guys so much yeah what a |
| 21652s | game France got all of our hopes up just |
| 21655s | to be crushed on that third a convincing |
| 21659s | Shing from Team USA let's discuss how |
| 21662s | they got it done because uh quite |
| 21665s | frankly initially France looked a lot |
| 21668s | better I think they they really made the |
| 21670s | right changes heading into day number |
| 21672s | two uh let's discuss what changes those |
| 21674s | were and how Team USA still came out on |
| 21677s | top yeah I mean look for France right |
| 21680s | swapping over to Poco uh playing in this |
| 21683s | matchup uh playing with the sigma it it |
| 21685s | is one of the best compositions in the |
| 21687s | game currently at the pro level right so |
| 21689s | um it did uh unlock things for them |
| 21692s | playing this Lucio bati with the Genji |
| 21694s | lineup early on upping the pace being |
| 21696s | able to play the Lucio on this team um |
| 21697s | is obviously something that's going to |
| 21699s | help them off the pace against a team |
| 21700s | like USA this was a great point that you |
| 21702s | know custa made of course as well um and |
| 21705s | that I know that Danny wanted to touch |
| 21706s | on as well so I'm going to let you do |
| 21707s | that um no no go ahead no talk about it |
| 21711s | well I thought it was a great Point |
| 21712s | raised by custa that there is you know a |
| 21714s | double Flex support backline with |
| 21715s | ultravalet and repal for USA um and so |
| 21718s | that kind of like limits the pace in |
| 21720s | which they can play you know you can't |
| 21721s | bring out that Lucio as much because |
| 21722s | you'd ra probably rather play the double |
| 21724s | F support right you ra rather play the |
| 21726s | lari with the B for example maybe even |
| 21728s | bring out the KIRO right rather than try |
| 21730s | to match France when they're when |
| 21732s | they're playing the cetra and the luo so |
| 21734s | that was you know a big kind of like |
| 21736s | scary circuit real if for a Team USA fan |
| 21739s | but then when kou swapped over to the to |
| 21742s | the orisa and custa uh as he labeled it |
| 21745s | the quote unquote shooter comp shooter |
| 21747s | comp flank around and shoot and make it |
| 21751s | difficult for France to like really |
| 21752s | reach someone like you can you can speed |
| 21754s | up all you want with your May walls and |
| 21756s | your Sigma shield and you know you can |
| 21757s | try off the pace but they're just going |
| 21759s | to be spread out all around you and |
| 21760s | that's what we saw from hydron um in the |
| 21762s | OverWatch League um you know games |
| 21764s | earlier this year so um there was really |
| 21766s | just a compositional difference there on |
| 21768s | the very final map but a bit scary still |
| 21770s | for USA like I'm not completely sold |
| 21774s | after some weaknesses being spotted |
| 21776s | there in that matchup so |
| 21778s | wo their first match and I'm like |
| 21780s | already like whoa USA |
| 21783s | like any losses sweating winds here |
| 21785s | playing Saudi Arabia this week it felt a |
| 21787s | little bit Danny I think you said that |
| 21789s | whilst we were watching the match it |
| 21790s | felt a little bit uh like like USA needs |
| 21793s | to warm up yeah I mean I mean they are |
| 21796s | still a a strong team right but and also |
| 21800s | they did be friends but judging by what |
| 21802s | we saw and also what Johnny and custa |
| 21804s | was saying about uh their backline they |
| 21806s | have two support players and not having |
| 21808s | a main support you know it could maybe |
| 21811s | possibly be a problem for them in the |
| 21813s | future right and you know so it's sort |
| 21815s | of a limitation that they have to work |
| 21817s | with so we'll just have to wait and see |
| 21819s | I one thing can be said about this group |
| 21821s | though I I do think it uh may very well |
| 21824s | now be the most stacked group but France |
| 21827s | turning it up today and making uh the |
| 21829s | changes needed to be more competitive |
| 21832s | with Team Japan surprising us all on day |
| 21834s | one coming out on top and of course with |
| 21837s | theing of Saudi Arabia being exactly |
| 21839s | what we thought they would be which is a |
| 21842s | cohesive well-oiled machine who is |
| 21845s | looking very very dominant in their |
| 21847s | match Team USA got their work cut out |
| 21850s | for them it's going to be so excited to |
| 21852s | see which two teams will advance out of |
| 21854s | that group now heading up into a break |
| 21857s | and after that we will be talking about |
| 21859s | the last match of the day to fill our |
| 21862s | daily quota of Commonwealth battle we're |
| 21864s | going to have Canada facing off against |
| 21866s | Australia all this and more after |
| 21868s | [Music] |
| 21874s | this I got you I'm here here train TR |
| 21878s | push push push nice |
| 21882s | holy you baby yeah |

| 22089s | we are getting ready for our last match |
| 22091s | of day number two in the OverWatch World |
| 22094s | Cup 2023 group stages played in a round |
| 22097s | Rob and format we've had exciting |
| 22100s | explosive matches thus far and I'm sure |
| 22101s | this last one will not disappoint as |
| 22104s | Australia will face off against Canada |
| 22107s | two teams which a lot of people had |
| 22109s | highly rated in fact this is one of the |
| 22111s | groups where we all felt like it's going |
| 22112s | to be very difficult to predict the |
| 22115s | outcome so maybe after this match we're |
| 22117s | going to find some answers or not we'll |
| 22119s | find out very soon as they will be |
| 22121s | playing in just a few minutes for now |
| 22123s | let's take a look at their rosters |
| 22125s | starting with Canada Canada |
| 22127s | Unfortunately they are coming off of a |
| 22129s | loss from their first match yesterday |
| 22131s | Danny yeah I mean they did take the elf |
| 22134s | against Great Britain yesterday and |
| 22136s | Johnny and I you know got our |
| 22137s | predictions wrong but hey I think they |
| 22139s | had some signs of life I they it wasn't |
| 22141s | all doom and goon for them right because |
| 22143s | they had some great players such as |
| 22145s | Seeker that we're seeing right now this |
| 22146s | guy made a name for name for himself uh |
| 22149s | in the Pro scene great uh DPS player he |
| 22153s | was pop he was popping off yesterday on |
| 22155s | the fashion as we're seeing right now so |
| 22157s | players like him you know Canada has a |
| 22159s | lot of those so I think that's a |
| 22161s | starting point we saw France you know |
| 22163s | they take an L yesterday too but they |
| 22165s | came back of course they lost again to |
| 22167s | USA but they made a lot of improvement |
| 22169s | so I'm hoping that Canada sort of did |
| 22172s | the same thing you know take the loss |
| 22174s | and then make some improvements for |
| 22176s | today's match against Australia yeah the |
| 22178s | opposing team however is riding the high |
| 22180s | of their first Victory against Brazil |
| 22182s | what did we learn about team Australia |
| 22184s | from their match yesterday Johnny that |
| 22186s | they they play the the the the fun |
| 22188s | Heroes all right they played around of |
| 22191s | solid you know Tracer EO Winston this is |
| 22195s | like a solid composition like who |
| 22196s | doesn't like watching Trace Reco always |
| 22198s | fun Winston solid gameplay you know this |
| 22201s | is entertaining work of this want see |
| 22203s | but this right here coming out with the |
| 22205s | Reinhardt hitting the big shatters speed |
| 22207s | boosting with El luo and teleporting |
| 22209s | with nand symmet course this is what we |
| 22211s | really want to see here in the World Cup |
| 22212s | right am I the only one am I the only |
| 22214s | one who really wants to see this this is |
| 22215s | entertainment to me so Australia they |
| 22218s | just came out the gates and they were |
| 22219s | like we're not we're not going to play |
| 22221s | Sigma you know we're not going to play |
| 22223s | orisa like slowing the thing no we're |
| 22224s | going to go out with Pace we're going to |
| 22226s | push the Tempo and that's what it's all |
| 22228s | about okay loving the Reinhard action |
| 22231s | coming in from Australia I hope we get |
| 22232s | to see more of it today yeah I mean the |
| 22235s | made it hard for Brazil really although |
| 22237s | there were some moments where Brazil |
| 22238s | looked competitive in the end it was |
| 22240s | Australia taking it handedly let's see |
| 22242s | if they can you know continue their |
| 22244s | winning waste or if Canada is going to |
| 22246s | redeem themselves in their second match |
| 22247s | let's take a look at our predictions I |
| 22249s | went with Australia I think they just |
| 22252s | they looked spot on yesterday I I don't |
| 22255s | think there is much that I felt like was |
| 22258s | egregious or anything they needed to |
| 22259s | improve they had fun they played with |
| 22261s | Tempo it was exciting I want to see more |
| 22264s | of that what about you Danny let's go |
| 22266s | Australia you guys all know I love a |
| 22268s | team that uses Ryan Rush cob I've been |
| 22270s | supporting Ryan Rush cobs all throughout |
| 22272s | the year and as soon as I saw Australia |
| 22275s | playing it I was like all right this is |
| 22276s | my team Australia let's go I'm in with |
| 22280s | with Australia as well uh 2-1 here of |
| 22283s | course I it's really entertaining to |
| 22284s | watch them play but I also feel like for |
| 22286s | Canada you know Canada was hyped up |
| 22288s | going into the World Cup here we know |
| 22289s | they have great players on their team |
| 22291s | and Canada historically always does |
| 22293s | perform pretty well in the World Cup you |
| 22295s | know they always feature at blon in |
| 22297s | these later stages and try to feel their |
| 22299s | best roster I just I'm excited to see |
| 22301s | what they can do today I don't think |
| 22303s | they're too proud of yesterday's match |
| 22305s | up against Great Britain so I want to |
| 22306s | see the best foot foot put forth from uh |
| 22309s | Canada and just see what we know these |
| 22311s | players can do they're a really good |
| 22312s | team let's see the best game play uh we |
| 22314s | can for them absolutely yeah as you said |
| 22317s | historically of course Canada has been |
| 22319s | featuring up in the top 2017 they placed |
| 22321s | second 2018 they came third 2019 we |
| 22324s | don't talk about that one but other than |
| 22327s | that a lot on the line for both themes |
| 22329s | I'm excited for a good showing uh we of |
| 22331s | course always want to know everything |
| 22333s | there is to know about the team so we |
| 22334s | need to get the inside scoop and once |
| 22336s | more detective Emily has been on the |
| 22338s | case to find the truth let's hear it |
| 22340s | from |
| 22341s | her thank you so much Zoe yes prior to |
| 22345s | prior to today's match able to catch up |
| 22347s | with Coach Danny from Team Canada who is |
| 22350s | able to share some insight he said that |
| 22352s | every team is beatable given the right |
| 22354s | strategy and depending on the map |
| 22356s | selection including the top dogs like |
| 22359s | Korea and Dean from China everyone has a |
| 22362s | chance if you play well personally for |
| 22364s | Team Canada it's important for us to |
| 22366s | stay relaxed and composed during the |
| 22368s | match we wouldn't have made the same |
| 22371s | mistakes in scrim but given the pressure |
| 22373s | of the match we forgot some basic |
| 22374s | reminders and autop piloted which which |
| 22377s | cost it Us in the end I also asked well |
| 22380s | are there any interesting stories from |
| 22381s | your time in Anaheim that you could |
| 22383s | share with the fans and he said on the |
| 22385s | first day of our arrival in Anaheim we |
| 22387s | went out for dinner and Magic mate ball |
| 22391s | as you can see from the photo that we're |
| 22393s | about to provide was wearing a wolf |
| 22396s | shirt it was a full moon and he did a |
| 22398s | pose he's really chaning his interner |
| 22400s | wol to make him play |
| 22402s | well um I yeah incredible photo shoot I |
| 22405s | think that's the start of his side |
| 22407s | hustle so just seeing all the players |
| 22410s | from the other team was fun eating |
| 22412s | together at breakfast and um having a |
| 22414s | teams in the practice area was also |
| 22416s | really fun it's different and much more |
| 22419s | personal than just talking online and uh |
| 22423s | lastly he wanted to say that magic is |
| 22426s | also their secret weapon today versus |
| 22428s | Australia now sending it over to your |
| 22431s | Canadian and Australian casting Duo |
| 22432s | Levan and |
| 22435s | custa thanks so much Emily oh yeah we're |
| 22438s | here it's lemon kanuck in KAS Australia |
| 22442s | here to cast the match of the day |
| 22444s | easily you're going down okay this is a |
| 22447s | battle for the Commonwealth right here |
| 22449s | you know everything's on the line it's |
| 22450s | honestly the group for the Commonwealth |
| 22452s | because we you know we also have Great |
| 22454s | Britain in here as well so everything to |
| 22456s | fight for you guys went down 01 Canada |
| 22458s | went down 01 yesterday to Great Britain |
| 22460s | we're riding on a high 10 up against |
| 22462s | Brazil so honestly everything to fight |
| 22464s | for for both of these teams yeah well we |
| 22466s | got the wolf pack okay whatever that |
| 22468s | magic b ball put up on the screen that |
| 22471s | was the worst edited photo I've ever |
| 22474s | seen they literally put a moon in front |
| 22476s | of the palm tree ah it was you know if |
| 22479s | if you're going to put that level of |
| 22480s | performance into today's match you know |
| 22481s | we're not we're not even going to break |
| 22482s | a sweat yeah that's cuz all of our |
| 22484s | talent isn't OverWatch okay it's yeah |
| 22489s | well look at that pose okay he's that's |
| 22492s | hard to fo tall at least and he's the |
| 22495s | the magic weapon or whatever they said |
| 22498s | so hey hey it's going to be hard to take |
| 22500s | down an alpha like that but magic mapall |
| 22502s | apparently the secret weapon heading |
| 22504s | into this series I'm excited to see what |
| 22507s | that what that is going to be to show uh |
| 22509s | they're going to have a lot to deal with |
| 22510s | Team Australia uh I think we saw |
| 22511s | yesterday that they're more than happy |
| 22514s | to move over to the Reinhardt and play |
| 22516s | like a rush composition and just run you |
| 22517s | down how are Canada going to be able to |
| 22520s | handle and adapt to that oh well Canada |
| 22522s | started 0 and one Owen I barely know him |
| 22525s | this is how we go one and one magic |
| 22528s | mapall if you've been under a rock you |
| 22531s | wouldn't know this player but if you've |
| 22532s | been watching contenders North America |
| 22534s | you know exactly who this player is won |
| 22536s | the contender summer series with wisp we |
| 22538s | have some of the best North American |
| 22541s | talent when it comes to tier 2 on this |
| 22543s | roster including Cal who got second in |
| 22546s | contenders North America with Team |
| 22548s | Timeless I'm really stoked of course we |
| 22550s | have OverWatch leag caliber players too |
| 22552s | like false from Vancouver Titans and |
| 22554s | Seeker from La Valiant so we're no we're |
| 22557s | no pushovers yeah but we got a good |
| 22560s | bunch of lads that are about to run you |
| 22561s | down with Reinhardt you can you can have |
| 22564s | all of these you know accolades to your |
| 22566s | name we got the power of friendship and |
| 22568s | the boys are coming so let's see what |
| 22570s | we're going to see looks like Australia |
| 22572s | potentially going to start on this |
| 22573s | Reinhardt it does work very well against |
| 22575s | the symmetra but Canada potentially |
| 22577s | seeing this one coming looks like false |
| 22579s | is going to roll out on the Arisa as |
| 22580s | well but for the most part these teams |
| 22582s | are going to run at each other it' be |
| 22584s | interesting to see who comes out on top |
| 22586s | yeah who's who's going to come out on |
| 22587s | top the lads or the buds false versus |
| 22591s | Kaa see if Kaa has what it takes on this |
| 22594s | Reinhardt false I'm The Unofficial coach |
| 22597s | blow up his shield with your left click |
| 22599s | Seeker go tankle bir I was at a show |
| 22602s | match with you I know you can aim here's |
| 22604s | the thing we're just going to yell |
| 22605s | coaching advice that's going to be the |
| 22607s | entire car so if you if you're expecting |
| 22609s | something different you're out of luck |
| 22610s | Aki goes down first which is a terrible |
| 22613s | start for team Australia gets caught off |
| 22615s | by noxious and that's a quick d kill |
| 22617s | Team Canada oh noxious he's been so |
| 22620s | passionate and vocal on Twitter about |
| 22622s | just how excited he is to be playing for |
| 22624s | his region he's very well known in the |
| 22626s | Collegiate scene playing for top schools |
| 22628s | like Harrisburg and St Clair so you |
| 22630s | might think look at this roster like oh |
| 22631s | not a lot of OverWatch League uh uh |
| 22633s | players that have experience in the |
| 22635s | OverWatch league but hey we have good |
| 22637s | players that's all that matters yeah |
| 22639s | OverWatch league is overrated we have no |
| 22640s | OverWatch league players either but we |
| 22642s | do have lots of contenders players we're |
| 22644s | actually going to see cuffer switch over |
| 22646s | to the sigma the orisa versus Reinhard |
| 22649s | match is very in favor of the orisa but |
| 22651s | the sigma favors against the orisa so |
| 22654s | we'll hopefully get an advantage from |
| 22655s | kaer as we see but now they're going to |
| 22657s | want to poke and sort of stay in that |
| 22659s | mid-range with the Bastion and the sigma |
| 22660s | just poking out damage against Canada |
| 22662s | the issue that they have though is that |
| 22664s | they don't have the point so all this |
| 22665s | time they're losing percentage but false |
| 22667s | goes down yeah the bigger issue is the S |
| 22669s | Matrix plus aasan but somehow The Kills |
| 22671s | are going to Australia they're |
| 22673s | teleporting to both sides of Canada and |
| 22675s | they don't even know what no should to |
| 22676s | look at anymore that'll be Australia |
| 22678s | taking back to point clean play I think |
| 22681s | B just gets a little aggressive doesn't |
| 22683s | isn't able to be healed by crimo on that |
| 22685s | Rush we're actually going to see them |
| 22687s | sticking with his composition so |
| 22688s | Australia Australia sorry taking control |
| 22691s | and now ultimates are starting to come |
| 22693s | up Nanda has that Photon Barrack gives a |
| 22695s | huge advantage and Aki is coming up to |
| 22697s | that amplification Matrix and crimo |
| 22699s | doesn't have his because he used it in |
| 22700s | the Lost |
| 22701s | fighton barrier ready to split up this |
| 22704s | point do you want to keep your half do |
| 22705s | you want to split up the fight into two |
| 22707s | halves there's different ways to place |
| 22709s | this and Australia trying to defend the |
| 22711s | point and KNX just using that ice block |
| 22714s | puts him in such a precarious situation |
| 22715s | and I don't think Canada can save their |
| 22717s | buddy so Australia are going to continue |
| 22719s | to try to run them |
| 22721s | over confirming these kills quite yet |
| 22724s | Australia are are really struggling and |
| 22726s | now getting pushed away by the noxious |
| 22729s | blizzard will be also Canada during that |
| 22732s | yeah moment flipping the point yeah |
| 22734s | Australia used all of their ultimate try |
| 22736s | and win that one Aki then falls on the |
| 22738s | reagg sound barrier out from Magic Maple |
| 22740s | to counter the gravitic flux and that |
| 22742s | will be Canada winning a pretty decisive |
| 22745s | fight I like the idea from Australia to |
| 22748s | try and go proactive against the Canada |
| 22749s | Squad but it did not execute in the same |
| 22752s | way that they planned it out yeah it |
| 22754s | took a while to get this done for Canada |
| 22757s | but the job is done 70% on a don't sound |
| 22760s | so smug I don't I don't want to hear |
| 22762s | that from you don't sound so smug 75% |
| 22765s | Counting we can make it back we have no |
| 22767s | ultimate but we have a dream we'll see |
| 22770s | if the dream dies though |
| 22772s | Australia good disengage from the |
| 22774s | artillery strike against the |
| 22777s | passion looking for The teror Surge you |
| 22779s | can see he's just waiting for them to |
| 22780s | step Up's going to go all the way to the |
| 22783s | beach it looks like they know it Canada |
| 22786s | hoping to meet them halfway there where |
| 22788s | is Australia now teporting on the other |
| 22791s | side of the bo even Canada is UN sure |
| 22794s | Terror surge at the ready 99% for and |
| 22796s | overtime yeah losing crims was huge not |
| 22799s | a lot of healing now none at all for |
| 22801s | Canada when they felt like they were |
| 22803s | going to be taking the initiative in |
| 22805s | this fight it's Australia that just out |
| 22807s | rotated them yeah you know Australia |
| 22810s | we're known for our beaches we |
| 22811s | apparently found a teleporter on the on |
| 22813s | the outside of this map and made it to |
| 22814s | behind Canada FSE was just confused you |
| 22816s | could see him setting up to go for the |
| 22818s | flank Terror surge but by the time they |
| 22820s | found Australia they were already on the |
| 22821s | point and crimo had already fallen so |
| 22823s | big plays from Team Australia |
| 22824s | considering they had no ultimat to go |
| 22826s | with and now they're starting to charge |
| 22827s | them up as well so Australia potentially |
| 22829s | back in the driver seat of this round |
| 22832s | yeah Matrix from AI could be starts off |
| 22834s | the fight for Australia and Canada |
| 22836s | choosing to go down this long Lane could |
| 22837s | hurt them in the end but the teleporter |
| 22839s | as Nanda tries to meet Australia halfway |
| 22841s | with Canada Terror surge though |
| 22843s | Australia just walk into pain and Canada |
| 22847s | though it's not looking too good they've |
| 22849s | only lost one though can they finish off |
| 22851s | the remnants of Australia the spear |
| 22853s | misses now cuup up is a believer |
| 22856s | apparently with the grab flux getting |
| 22858s | Seeker low enough but noxious and crimzo |
| 22861s | will protect him well now the Blizzard |
| 22862s | from noxious is thrown a try and lock |
| 22864s | down burlock who just speeds around it |
| 22866s | thanks to the sound beer Australia will |
| 22868s | sustain through it it is just such a |
| 22871s | crazy last fight yeah it's just |
| 22873s | desperation mode for Australia everyone |
| 22874s | switch we got a Moira we got a tracer |
| 22876s | and they are managing to hold on for |
| 22878s | just long enough artillery strike coming |
| 22880s | out of Seeker is it going to find any |
| 22881s | value Nami Falls it's going to be hard |
| 22883s | for Australia Australia are only down by |
| 22887s | two but the lack of damage hurts a lot |
| 22890s | magic M ball two with the sound barrier |
| 22892s | we're just going to run down Australia |
| 22895s | once and for all in this round one |
| 22897s | although Australia have been known to |
| 22898s | turn fights before a while going I can't |
| 22902s | believe still going burlock gets one but |
| 22904s | with Aki falling nami's going to need to |
| 22906s | go nuclear to be able to win this gets |
| 22908s | the pulse bomb he could turn this whole |
| 22909s | thing around with the big p b chasing |
| 22912s | down these Speedy Heroes of |
| 22915s | Australia finally they're gone and |
| 22917s | Canada will take round one 100 to 81 but |
| 22920s | that that was that was hard to follow |
| 22923s | that was an allout brawl there was no |
| 22925s | Rhyme or Reason honestly both teams |
| 22927s | doing a great job of entering back into |
| 22930s | these fights finding Avenues and both of |
| 22932s | the Baptist were struggling to stay |
| 22934s | alive they were usually the first ones |
| 22935s | going down so now we head over to beach |
| 22937s | kuff is going to looks like start on the |
| 22940s | sigma I think if you know that the |
| 22942s | Canada Canadian team is going to play |
| 22944s | the Arisa into you if you try and play |
| 22946s | the Reinhardt I think this is the right |
| 22947s | decision just put kaffa on the sigma he |
| 22949s | was doing work with the sigma they just |
| 22951s | weren't able to close out the |
| 22953s | round see if he kuffa will still live |
| 22957s | with a Bastion of Seeker I played in a |
| 22959s | show match with that guy he's pretty |
| 22961s | good and now he's pretty good we got the |
| 22963s | the stage nerves out of the |
| 22965s | way see sea honestly this is unfair |
| 22968s | because sea has Advantage because he |
| 22970s | played s more earlier in a show match so |
| 22972s | feel like that's an unfair advantage |
| 22973s | that team Canada has but you know I'll |
| 22975s | take it up with the refs |
| 22976s | okay crimo died crimo down again wow |
| 22979s | that is the best Canadian talent we'll |
| 22982s | ever have he better not leave but he's |
| 22985s | dead so he he is left for now but he'll |
| 22986s | be back'll be back and Australia |
| 22989s | utilizing the symmetra very well it |
| 22991s | feels like they that's how we keep |
| 22993s | finding picks on a crimo Australia |
| 22995s | they're teleporting into an off angle or |
| 22997s | behind in a crimo and crimzo is just |
| 22999s | struggling to deal with it and stay |
| 23000s | alive so first capture goes over to |
| 23002s | Australia so already in a much better |
| 23004s | spot than they were last round |
| 23007s | now no one really taking a lot of damage |
| 23008s | cuz that fight was so quick you don't |
| 23010s | have ant Matrix as that ultimate that |
| 23012s | could usually start that second fight |
| 23013s | look at this teleporter that goes behind |
| 23015s | Canada now they just hope to chase them |
| 23018s | down false front lining quite well but |
| 23021s | uh slowly running out of juice |
| 23023s | immortality has to be brought out by |
| 23024s | crimo both team trading blow for blow |
| 23027s | Canada are up by one and Seeker has been |
| 23029s | let loose and he's hunting down this is |
| 23032s | what the wolf pack does the wolf pack |
| 23034s | does they hunt they Hound honestly |
| 23037s | Australia and great play by Canada they |
| 23039s | dropped the amplification Matrix seekers |
| 23041s | in the wheels mode just does so much |
| 23042s | damage in a short amount of time |
| 23044s | Australia just evaporates from the map |
| 23047s | so that is going to be a Point Flip |
| 23048s | coming back over to Canada but now |
| 23050s | Australia they're the ones who have the |
| 23051s | amplification Matrix they have to become |
| 23053s | the wolf pack Channel your wolf pack |
| 23056s | Australia got to get your a ready oh I |
| 23059s | have Matrix right there from Australia |
| 23062s | catches noxious and the rest off guard |
| 23064s | Canada couldn't find shelter in time |
| 23067s | before the storm arrived and Australia |
| 23070s | we'll keep their lead and we'll get the |
| 23071s | point back the bashing grenades through |
| 23074s | the amplification Matrix do like |
| 23076s | something north of 200 damage you have |
| 23078s | to be so careful if you get stuck by it |
| 23080s | you're just going to instantly die so |
| 23082s | such an important tool and it gets |
| 23083s | charged up so quickly so great play by |
| 23085s | Australia they have to use the photon |
| 23087s | barrier as well to get into it so now |
| 23090s | gravic flux basion ultimate coming here |
| 23093s | for Australia it's such a good combo |
| 23094s | because people can avoid it if they get |
| 23096s | picked up in the flux good thing |
| 23098s | Australia didn't take that teleporter |
| 23100s | what how does AI die to that even with |
| 23104s | the immortality and everything great |
| 23105s | first pick by Canada sound beers |
| 23107s | exchanged Canada in a 54 also a back cap |
| 23110s | tube by Canada has Australia's Focus all |
| 23113s | over the place as they hope to escape at |
| 23116s | least keep shelter inside of this |
| 23117s | building very early sound from burlock |
| 23120s | trying to keep them in that fight but as |
| 23121s | soon as magic b Mo responds with his own |
| 23124s | there's nothing you can do so now tanks |
| 23127s | blizzard here for noxious it's going to |
| 23129s | be hard for Australia to deal with they |
| 23130s | do have the teleporter to sort of |
| 23131s | manipulate their movement around it but |
| 23134s | you can see them struggling to find any |
| 23135s | positioning actually they're teleporting |
| 23137s | behind C once again kuffa on the |
| 23139s | backline just floating into space Kaa |
| 23142s | looking for Seeker isolates him with the |
| 23144s | grab flux and the artillery St on 3K |
| 23148s | Terror surch by false as he just surges |
| 23151s | into Australia and buries him 6 feet |
| 23153s | under oh that's not good that's not good |
| 23157s | great play by false just you could see |
| 23159s | kuffer just got caught wasn't able to |
| 23161s | get through the teleporter from there |
| 23162s | false had a free run into the backline |
| 23165s | of Australia and now 80% final fight |
| 23168s | territory here for Canada Australia |
| 23169s | needs to find something to get into this |
| 23171s | fight noxious is hiding hoping that |
| 23174s | Canada gives up a bit of space Maybe |
| 23176s | baits Australia into a blizzard or just |
| 23179s | sees who is going to touch out of |
| 23180s | Australia but by the way Australia are |
| 23182s | just distancing themselves because of |
| 23183s | the at Matrix there of crimo but Canada |
| 23186s | a few seconds away from taking map |
| 23188s | number one here's a response there from |
| 23189s | Aki with the amrix good zoning by Canada |
| 23191s | but maybe not able to escape in time the |
| 23193s | Bastion damage is simply too much Nami |
| 23196s | 3K 4K almost the ace and crimo won't let |
| 23200s | it happen good |
| 23202s | boy n is bloodthirsty still going for it |
| 23205s | for almost kills crimo with the right |
| 23207s | clicks but now all of a sudden it's |
| 23209s | Australia they have control they have |
| 23211s | the photon barer noxious is still |
| 23213s | holding on to this blizzard he was |
| 23214s | anticipating aele play by Australia that |
| 23216s | just never came so didn't get the |
| 23218s | opportunity to drop it so fortunately |
| 23220s | still holding on to that one but last |
| 23222s | fight Australia needs to win this one to |
| 23224s | keep the map going Seekers already so |
| 23226s | low by the Symetra place man just to |
| 23229s | heal back up AI stunned Nami brought |
| 23232s | back to almost full health the |
| 23233s | protection of the photon barrier helps |
| 23236s | Australia out a lot as they as Canada |
| 23238s | still hoping to flip but without magic |
| 23240s | mall they won't have the speed but they |
| 23242s | have an ant Matrix noxious holding on to |
| 23244s | the Blizzard hoping Australia get a bit |
| 23246s | closer hiding from the rain of damage |
| 23249s | here comes more it's Nami with the |
| 23250s | artillery strike hoping to flush out the |
| 23253s | Rats of Canada 99 to 99 almost the flip |
| 23257s | though but not quite yet Australia still |
| 23258s | have the point the flux from Kaa kind of |
| 23261s | zones him himself off from the point |
| 23263s | Canada will cap but they really don't |
| 23265s | have bodies to keep protecting it it's |
| 23267s | just seeker and Australia will be |
| 23269s | forcing round three and Nami just going |
| 23272s | nuclear on this Bastion right now |
| 23274s | putting out so much damage in pair with |
| 23276s | the amplification Matrix just finding |
| 23278s | kill after kill and right now we talked |
| 23281s | about how strong seeka has been as a |
| 23282s | player in the OverWatch league right now |
| 23284s | nami's taking it to him ready for battle |
| 23287s | everyone's been saying this was you know |
| 23290s | our bias said that this was going to be |
| 23291s | the match of the day but really this was |
| 23294s | going to be the closest in terms of |
| 23296s | skill this is the terge we saw off |
| 23298s | screen it's just he's just going to let |
| 23301s | it happen yeah it's just like well I'm |
| 23304s | going down may as well shoots some |
| 23305s | bullets on the way out doesn't find |
| 23308s | anything and wow that was great play by |
| 23310s | false but now we're tied up we head over |
| 23312s | to volcano as both teams stick with the |
| 23314s | same |
| 23315s | compositions this is a pretty close-nit |
| 23318s | Point |
| 23320s | too now it's orisa versus Sigma fals has |
| 23324s | been good at just running them down |
| 23325s | that's exactly what orisa needs to do as |
| 23327s | long as you protect Seeker some biggest |
| 23330s | source of damage but Australia is trying |
| 23332s | to counter rotate away come knocked into |
| 23335s | the PIP bounces back up nothing to see |
| 23337s | here nothing to worry about Australia |
| 23339s | does have first point control so it's |
| 23341s | going to be Canada who are going to have |
| 23342s | to run into Australia Zer and WIS Nami |
| 23344s | canot get caught great teleport out by |
| 23346s | the team I love the creativity out of |
| 23349s | Australia and how they can get away from |
| 23350s | Canada Canada got to be careful with how |
| 23352s | desperate they become to finish off |
| 23354s | these targets they get them so low it's |
| 23356s | been some great kind of cheeky |
| 23358s | positioning from Canada to go around |
| 23359s | these Corners Australia did cap earlier |
| 23361s | on Canada's going for the flip an Matrix |
| 23364s | Australia are not even going to contest |
| 23366s | and somehow only just now has there been |
| 23368s | a death Nanda removed and Canada and |
| 23371s | that 54 what a maywa from noxious and |
| 23375s | Kaa just going to reset with the |
| 23378s | team and that's the issue you run into |
| 23380s | when you're playing the Sigma versus the |
| 23381s | Arisa the Arisa can walk forward with no |
| 23384s | fear because she has so many defensive |
| 23386s | tools while the sigma you're trying to |
| 23388s | poke from mid-range so even though |
| 23389s | Australia got you know capture Point |
| 23391s | first they eventually got pushed off by |
| 23393s | Canada and then all of a sudden |
| 23394s | Australia gets a little sporadic and |
| 23396s | they're the ones who get picked first we |
| 23398s | are seeing AI come up to this |
| 23399s | amplification Matrix they could do the |
| 23401s | same thing that Canada did step onto the |
| 23402s | point drop the an Matrix force their |
| 23404s | opposition team away they have good |
| 23406s | shelter though on this High ground and |
| 23408s | they're really not letting Australia get |
| 23409s | set up a at all the May from nox just |
| 23413s | kind of broke things up the Matrix came |
| 23414s | through but as Australia were just |
| 23416s | squeezing this tight area Canada just |
| 23418s | blew them up can Canada will hold on to |
| 23421s | this lead but it feels like austr are |
| 23422s | fighting back all thanks to Kaa what f |
| 23425s | and that wait one man sound late sound |
| 23428s | bear from btlog trying to keep copper |
| 23430s | alive oh one he definitely is going to |
| 23432s | want back and that's that's such a huge |
| 23435s | tool to go by the wayside because Canada |
| 23437s | still holding on to so many of their |
| 23438s | ultimates crimzo coming up to another |
| 23440s | amplification Matrix at 65% in counting |
| 23442s | and close to five ultimates this is |
| 23444s | going to be very difficult for Australia |
| 23446s | to come in they need some |
| 23448s | magic going big forand and friend splits |
| 23450s | up the fight but Canada have already |
| 23452s | arrived artillery strike two from Seeker |
| 23454s | was get Australia low Canada were |
| 23456s | looming to see what they could get out |
| 23458s | of that fight sound barrier engag Canada |
| 23460s | Rush In And a great spear hits nand and |
| 23463s | a terror sege is more than enough for |
| 23465s | false and friends the wolf pack of |
| 23468s | Canada to take down Australia again ah |
| 23471s | just rushing some of their ultimates not |
| 23473s | completely in sync and it just feels |
| 23475s | like Canada was able to withstand |
| 23477s | everything that team Australia threw at |
| 23478s | them doesn't look like they'll get |
| 23480s | another touch in Team Canada going to |
| 23483s | potentially take the first map B look |
| 23485s | get pinned against the wall by the |
| 23487s | javelin from |
| 23489s | false damn hey you come back next map |
| 23492s | you get your map choice and now you've |
| 23494s | you've fallen for our trap lemon now you |
| 23497s | get to deal with the wrath of kafer |
| 23499s | Reinhardt it's too bad we're remote you |
| 23501s | got to go tell the lads that it'll be |
| 23503s | okay map choice for Australia is coming |
| 23506s | up match point for Team Canada I think |
| 23509s | this is this group was it Group B yeah |
| 23512s | with Australia uh Great Britain Brazil |
| 23515s | Canada is going to be one of the most |
| 23516s | difficult ones to predict I think it's |
| 23519s | the interesting thing about Group B is |
| 23521s | there isn't one team that everyone |
| 23522s | expects to just be a standout right |
| 23524s | obviously we have the team from China we |
| 23526s | have Team USA and Team South Korea who |
| 23528s | have been doing very well in their group |
| 23530s | so far while everything's up for grabs |
| 23532s | in this team be obviously Canada lost |
| 23535s | that first match to Great Britain which |
| 23537s | was you would say an important one for |
| 23539s | you guys so that is why this is an |
| 23542s | important first map win cuz you need to |
| 23543s | win this series if you're going to make |
| 23545s | it out of this group well Samoa went the |
| 23548s | distance still I think the teleporter |
| 23550s | plays from Australia were were really |
| 23552s | fun they really trying to confuse Canada |
| 23554s | for a while and see after Canada had |
| 23556s | used cooldowns if Australia could kind |
| 23558s | of surprise them taking a different |
| 23560s | position and with that early engage see |
| 23562s | if Australia could get early picks from |
| 23564s | it and I was entertained I thought I |
| 23566s | have fun yeah Australia seems like a |
| 23569s | four fun team in the way that they play |
| 23571s | right like they they want to have and |
| 23572s | play their own style it feels like they |
| 23574s | they have a bunch of wacky strats that I |
| 23576s | feel like un's been cooking up in the |
| 23577s | background and they utilized it well |
| 23580s | somewhat but as soon as Canada sort of |
| 23582s | wisened up to some of their strategies |
| 23583s | it felt like it's began to fall flat so |
| 23586s | potentially Australia if they are going |
| 23588s | to continue to face against this orisa |
| 23590s | might need to make some |
| 23591s | changes see I think yeah the the onean |
| 23594s | sound be from btlog I think would have |
| 23596s | maybe salvaged the next fight if that |
| 23598s | wasn't used but hey maybe Australia can |
| 23600s | salvage the series they decide to go to |
| 23601s | Circuit Royale oh yeah this is |
| 23604s | absolutely going to be a cup of |
| 23606s | Reinhardt special we saw them do it just |
| 23608s | yesterday against team Brazil Symetra |
| 23609s | teleports Reinhardt shatters it's going |
| 23611s | to be a good time oh see if that |
| 23613s | Reinhardt Will Survive and we'll see you |
| 23615s | all on the other side of this |
| 23633s | break |
| 23644s | [Music] |
| 23651s | [Music] |
| 23684s | [Music] |
| 23700s | [Music] |
| 23752s | [Music] |
| 23753s | n |
| 23770s | [Music] |
| 23783s | oh |
| 23788s | [Music] |
| 23813s | oh |
| 23815s | [Music] |
| 23817s | winter is coming nah the north is here |
| 23821s | first snow has hit Canada and that's |
| 23823s | just the buff we |
| 23825s | needed yeah you honestly you got a buff |
| 23828s | but honestly I thought we would have |
| 23829s | something when we went over to Beach and |
| 23831s | that is the one that we actually won |
| 23833s | because we are right at home and the |
| 23834s | Patriotic paraphernalia is right here |
| 23837s | honestly we have to represent our |
| 23838s | countries I actually had to get it get |
| 23840s | it off the wall I actually got stabbed |
| 23841s | by a pin but honestly I think I got |
| 23843s | outdone by Lemon here you you are very |
| 23845s | Canadian right now yes I even very |
| 23849s | specifically dyed my hair this color |
| 23851s | just to be supportive you're getting |
| 23854s | stabbed by your jersey so that's just |
| 23856s | the type of Vibes that are going on cuz |
| 23859s | you're also getting stabbed in game |
| 23860s | Australia dropped game one we did lose |
| 23864s | game one but honestly we love a good |
| 23865s | Underdog Story down in Australia so I'm |
| 23868s | all about it I'm all about it you want |
| 23869s | to have your backs against the wall and |
| 23871s | honestly I think control is a map type |
| 23873s | that I think Australia the way that they |
| 23875s | like to play isn't very conducive they |
| 23878s | you know also struggled against team |
| 23879s | Brazil in the matchup against them you |
| 23881s | know having to play some other things so |
| 23883s | now they get the map pick they get to go |
| 23885s | over to Circa Royale and I think they |
| 23887s | should feel a lot more at home uh is |
| 23890s | Canada going to try and play the sigma |
| 23891s | into it we've seen teams struggle |
| 23893s | against the Reinhardt and the symmetra |
| 23894s | teleporters you know we just saw that in |
| 23896s | the last series so I'm curious to see |
| 23898s | what both teams are going to do and with |
| 23900s | Fs in the lineup yeah that traditional |
| 23902s | off tank I feel like this is his bread |
| 23904s | and but when it comes to the meta |
| 23906s | difference between Canada from yesterday |
| 23908s | today well one Canada's winning but also |
| 23910s | two magicball is playing over Cal |
| 23914s | yesterday Cal was playing Lucio he's |
| 23915s | more known as that Flex support magic |
| 23917s | mball is the North American Lucio and |
| 23920s | well now he's not playing it right now |
| 23922s | but maybe maybe that'll change but um |
| 23925s | the L kind of teams are discovering that |
| 23926s | the Lucio Sigma seems to be kind of this |
| 23929s | really aggressive brawl composition that |
| 23930s | is taking up a lot of space and does |
| 23932s | well yeah hey I think the Lucio just |
| 23935s | gives you a lot more options of how you |
| 23937s | want to play the game obviously there |
| 23938s | are times that you want to play the |
| 23940s | double Flex support and it wouldn't be |
| 23942s | the craziest thing if we saw magic Maple |
| 23943s | come out here on the Anor but |
| 23945s | interesting adjustment here for |
| 23946s | Australia they aren't actually going to |
| 23947s | play the Reinhardt to my disappointment |
| 23949s | they're going to go back to the sigma |
| 23952s | unfortunately we don't have Punk to be |
| 23953s | able to come in to play the sigma he is |
| 23955s | obviously the Australian OverWatch |
| 23957s | League player probably the best overwat |
| 23958s | league player that we've ever had come |
| 23960s | out of the region and he's given the |
| 23962s | opportunity to cuffer to be able to play |
| 23964s | on this International stage to be able |
| 23966s | to play against some of these world |
| 23967s | class players so I want to see how CU is |
| 23969s | going to match up in this Sigma mirror |
| 23971s | yeah lowkey only think it's close cuz |
| 23973s | Punk isn't here thanks for giving us a |
| 23974s | chance so charitable but Canada are just |
| 23979s | speeding right on in have Australia |
| 23981s | trapped in a tiny room and as Australia |
| 23983s | try to break out they may lose some |
| 23985s | bodies in the process but they use the |
| 23987s | teleporter of nand to get to The High |
| 23989s | Ground to try and put damage above fse's |
| 23991s | shield and they kill CS they constantly |
| 23994s | just targeting my man's crimo what's up |
| 23996s | with that yeah honestly you got to you |
| 23998s | got to attack the carry crimso has been |
| 24000s | such an exceptional Baptist in the past |
| 24002s | and they are doing a great job of like |
| 24004s | playing their strategy and then |
| 24005s | teleporting in a way that is catching |
| 24007s | crimo off guard and honestly the |
| 24008s | entirety of Team Canada it looked like a |
| 24011s | bad strategy of all of Australia backing |
| 24012s | into that room but you can see the |
| 24014s | communication and the uh coordination |
| 24016s | really coming out in Spades for team |
| 24018s | Australia that's a great first point |
| 24020s | hold Canada going to the top left now |
| 24024s | and trying to get a better angle Above |
| 24025s | This Shield Kaa adjusts nai's trying to |
| 24028s | go maybe behind that but no maybe just |
| 24030s | shielding himself from the damage and is |
| 24033s | doesn't probably know where he is might |
| 24034s | have missed the teleporter and he's by |
| 24036s | himself AI trying to support and |
| 24038s | Australia got kind of mixed up with the |
| 24040s | teleporter play there and Canada took |
| 24042s | advantage yeah I just complimented them |
| 24044s | and sang their praises about how foess |
| 24046s | that was that second attempt was nowhere |
| 24048s | near as fless and now cuffer is actually |
| 24050s | getting staggered even though he gets |
| 24051s | both of the backliners oh he is going to |
| 24053s | die later as well so that should give |
| 24055s | Canada an opportunity to step up and |
| 24057s | take position before cff can get back to |
| 24059s | this point but honestly that's two you |
| 24062s | know minute and 40 seconds off of the |
| 24064s | clock for team Australia holding close |
| 24066s | spawn if they get an effective you know |
| 24068s | fight at the back end of this fight that |
| 24069s | was a perfect play Australia have a |
| 24072s | chance to recontest help the amp me from |
| 24073s | AI but has to get the right angle on it |
| 24077s | even nand could get some P the CET right |
| 24079s | click can be pretty deadly at range |
| 24082s | Canada the sound barrier to who's going |
| 24084s | to pull P the trigger it's Australia |
| 24085s | with the m Matrix walled off from |
| 24087s | noxious but it buys Canada enough time |
| 24089s | to round this corner and not face the |
| 24091s | damage head on false is getting bullied |
| 24093s | noxious has his back and Australia will |
| 24096s | have to rely on Plan B yeah even though |
| 24098s | magic mall is down if you try and push |
| 24100s | into that small room there's so many |
| 24101s | things that could go wrong just take |
| 24103s | that time advantage that you got from a |
| 24104s | great amplification Matrix and grenade |
| 24106s | from Nami early flux comes out from |
| 24108s | Falls followed up by the blizzard ooh |
| 24110s | Kaa is very low too and burlock Frozen |
| 24113s | up kill not able to drop the sound bar |
| 24115s | which could have maybe salvaged that |
| 24117s | fight for Australia the photon barrier |
| 24119s | is a good defense but I think Australia |
| 24122s | want to get this over with so Canada |
| 24124s | will cap point a yeah I think burlock |
| 24126s | just not able to get the sound barrier |
| 24128s | off to deal with the flux blizzard combo |
| 24130s | so not a bad hole definitely took a lot |
| 24132s | of time off the clock but Canada has |
| 24133s | managed to roll through and that only |
| 24135s | cost them the flux and the blizzard |
| 24136s | smartly held onto some of their other |
| 24138s | ultimates so now they're able to |
| 24139s | snowball are they going to be able to |
| 24141s | hold aggressively like you've already |
| 24142s | seen them FSE stepping up does doesn't |
| 24144s | want to give Australia the |
| 24146s | positioning artillery strike from Seeker |
| 24148s | forces out the immortality which is |
| 24149s | still very valuable Australia are quite |
| 24152s | low and btlog is late with the sound |
| 24153s | bear to save nand and Ka up just Falls |
| 24156s | over to the a matrix plus Bastion when |
| 24159s | you're caught out in the open like that |
| 24161s | is just death and that feels bad berl |
| 24164s | just not able to get it off in time and |
| 24167s | can just able to clean up almost you |
| 24169s | freely it did cost them everything they |
| 24171s | have in Australia will get another fight |
| 24173s | and they do have the big combo once |
| 24175s | again the sigma gravitic flux with the |
| 24177s | Bastion ultimate if you time that |
| 24179s | together but you can see Canada they're |
| 24180s | going for a flank they don't want to let |
| 24181s | them use these ultimates free noxious is |
| 24183s | just getting away with putting so much |
| 24185s | damage on so many Heroes at once already |
| 24188s | has the blizzard Canada hit by the grab |
| 24190s | flux and the artillery strike was a nice |
| 24192s | attempt at the combo there from |
| 24193s | Australia and noxious feels like he has |
| 24196s | to commit the blizzard just to end this |
| 24198s | quickly in Canada cap point B oh was |
| 24201s | that a love hog that was nice thank you |
| 24202s | noxious I wasn't sure |
| 24205s | and but that's just great heads up plate |
| 24207s | from Canada they recognize the |
| 24208s | disadvantage that they have in ultimates |
| 24210s | and then take an early fight that caught |
| 24212s | Australia off guard and now we're going |
| 24213s | to see the switch out of cuffer |
| 24215s | realizing ah Sigma isn't really working |
| 24217s | let's go go back to the tried and true |
| 24219s | and heads over to the Reinhardt oh the |
| 24221s | issue with Reinhardt which I know like |
| 24223s | hottie and others have proven on the |
| 24225s | contrary is that the Reinhardt Shield |
| 24227s | can get bust it up quite quickly and |
| 24229s | then you're a Sitting Duck not the best |
| 24231s | tank to play out range but Australia are |
| 24233s | trying to Gap close as much as they can |
| 24234s | but they can't seem to get to that High |
| 24237s | Ground Canada are holding them at Bay |
| 24239s | there's the May wol from noxious it's |
| 24242s | great to invest these walls to allow |
| 24243s | Canada to rotate into a safer position |
| 24245s | Australia haven't been able to punish |
| 24247s | that until this moment magic mball is |
| 24249s | now the target of those F of that Focus |
| 24252s | Australia also stay stable on the cart |
| 24254s | they got noxious right where they want |
| 24256s | him somehow he gets away that's a huge |
| 24259s | flux too with the artillery strike |
| 24261s | Australia fall to the floor they |
| 24264s | scattered the Canadian Squad but they |
| 24266s | just weren't able to find any other |
| 24267s | picks they just struggled to take down |
| 24269s | noxious they will get another fight but |
| 24271s | it's going to be desperation mode btlog |
| 24274s | with the sound barer has had a couple of |
| 24275s | them go by the wayside needs it to be |
| 24277s | perfectly timed to help his team no does |
| 24279s | not care he wants this blizzard as soon |
| 24281s | as possible sound be Photon barrier is |
| 24284s | just a lot of sustain a lot of Defense |
| 24286s | from Australia and Australia have |
| 24290s | removed that backline that flanker of |
| 24292s | noxious and hope to bulldoze the rest of |
| 24294s | the Canadians it's an important time to |
| 24296s | hold because of how far the card has |
| 24299s | pushed it's a difficult point to assail |
| 24301s | Canada has to get positioning they have |
| 24303s | to move through and you're going to see |
| 24304s | false actually recognize this as well |
| 24306s | switches over to the Arisa I talked |
| 24308s | about it earlier in the series in |
| 24309s | general when they play Reinhard if you |
| 24311s | switch to Arisa that's a counter but |
| 24312s | then cupper instantly makes a SWAT over |
| 24314s | to the sigma so that he's in a better |
| 24316s | spot in this matchup so you can see the |
| 24318s | tank mind games and swaps happening in |
| 24320s | real |
| 24321s | time okay I've never seen someone would |
| 24324s | get flown off that side that cool down |
| 24326s | that would have been hilarious not well |
| 24327s | I would have been crying but Canada hope |
| 24330s | to let it rain here with the blizzard |
| 24332s | magic mball is just pushing people into |
| 24335s | the blizzard no one is frozen though but |
| 24337s | here's the sound of magic mball to give |
| 24339s | them a bit more time to really solidify |
| 24342s | Canada in this fight there's no healing |
| 24344s | for Australia so all damage from Canada |
| 24347s | will be permanent has to hope that he |
| 24349s | can contest as much as he can 2K might |
| 24352s | have just saved this fight I didn't |
| 24354s | think Canada was that low and kada still |
| 24357s | hoping to cap as they itch their heads |
| 24359s | and wonder what they can do in the next |
| 24361s | fight we have some Canadian observers in |
| 24363s | the production truck as well they're |
| 24364s | like okay run it down no can Canada won |
| 24366s | you know they're trying to wrap this up |
| 24368s | early but no Australia with an |
| 24370s | exceptional hold with nami on The Bash I |
| 24373s | don't know how he comes up with a double |
| 24374s | kill with the artillery strike but it |
| 24376s | came in right the nick of time so |
| 24378s | Australia are able to hold minute |
| 24380s | remaining here for Canada Australia once |
| 24382s | again not many ultimates answer back |
| 24384s | with so how is Canada going to utilize |
| 24386s | the amplification Matrix so far it feels |
| 24389s | like Australia's been trying to |
| 24390s | disengage from every single |
| 24391s | amplification Matrix are Canada going to |
| 24393s | recognize that and throw it out a little |
| 24395s | bit later than they usually do yeah |
| 24396s | crimo smart he won't use it here |
| 24398s | Australia have a great moment to round |
| 24400s | this corner and avoid it the mayw is |
| 24402s | trying to isolate someone from Australia |
| 24404s | with the speed of B log they managed to |
| 24406s | get out but that cost B log's Life 5 42 |
| 24409s | with the crimo at Matrix up top now |
| 24411s | they're down low but the photon bar |
| 24413s | Australia is a good point to defend on |
| 24416s | they can just stay on their side of the |
| 24418s | field and Canada got to wait it out |
| 24419s | around the |
| 24420s | corner yeah and that's once again Nami |
| 24423s | seems to be the player who's coming up |
| 24425s | with all the picks when they need it |
| 24426s | most his Bastion has been exceptional so |
| 24428s | far in this series and now final fight |
| 24430s | territory f with a terror surge is a |
| 24432s | scary Prospect if you watch map one but |
| 24434s | kapper can respond with the uh gravi |
| 24436s | flux of his own yeah Risa can take |
| 24439s | pressure really well just the tankiest |
| 24442s | of Tanks all also anyone who gets close |
| 24445s | the terrce surge will end them crimo |
| 24448s | being down a lot of healing is gone |
| 24450s | there's no sound no hope for Canada to |
| 24454s | complete circuit Royale what a defense |
| 24456s | out of Australia yes great play from |
| 24459s | Australia able to just hold on by the |
| 24462s | the Skin of Their Teeth so because |
| 24465s | they're able to hold there they don't |
| 24466s | have to worry about getting to overtime |
| 24468s | it's a simple strategy all you got to do |
| 24469s | is get it to the end of the third point |
| 24472s | the question that I have for Australia |
| 24473s | now is because FS can't make those |
| 24475s | retroactive swaps over to the Arisa do |
| 24478s | they decide to come out on the Reinhardt |
| 24480s | and try and run down the sigma of fals |
| 24482s | or they just going to try and take that |
| 24484s | Sigma mirror because when they were in |
| 24485s | the sigma mirror it felt like Canada had |
| 24487s | the edge it's also been a you're looking |
| 24490s | at the tanks I'm looking at the bastions |
| 24492s | too not going to lie Nami kind of saved |
| 24494s | that fight for Australia with that 2K |
| 24497s | still don't know how that artillery |
| 24498s | strike U Got the 2K like that and even |
| 24501s | Seeker has caught Australia off guard |
| 24503s | just catching them in the open with the |
| 24505s | ant Matrix that's really well timed with |
| 24507s | crimzo and with magic mball in the |
| 24509s | lineup Canada just look a lot more |
| 24511s | decisive on these Lucio pushes yeah |
| 24513s | absolutely I I think Canada is doing a |
| 24515s | better job of adapting on the fly in the |
| 24518s | middle of these fights while Australia |
| 24519s | can it's getting scattered a little bit |
| 24520s | too much if they can start tighten that |
| 24523s | up a little bit there's potential that |
| 24525s | they will you know be able to start |
| 24526s | turning some of these fights because |
| 24527s | right now it feels like Canada they're |
| 24529s | really determining the flow of the game |
| 24531s | but if Kaa does come out on this |
| 24533s | Reinhard was saying that might put the |
| 24535s | ball back in their cour yeah the rinard |
| 24537s | would be great at dueling close range |
| 24539s | but now seeing maybe the the sigma come |
| 24541s | out again does he want to mirror it or |
| 24544s | not and with the te teleporter that's |
| 24546s | going to be a great Gap closer option |
| 24549s | along with the Lucio Australia are out |
| 24551s | the gates in a quick teleport Canada are |
| 24554s | already speeding away nami's in tank |
| 24556s | form and good grasp too from false to |
| 24559s | eat up a lot of that pressure as |
| 24561s | Australia kind of I've already used |
| 24563s | their cool Downs now so I have to take a |
| 24565s | second and obviously the big advantage |
| 24567s | of Sigma is that you can shoot from |
| 24569s | mid-range and you have bullets while |
| 24570s | Reinhardt you have to be in their face |
| 24572s | if you're going to offer absolutely |
| 24573s | anything so they need to keep going in |
| 24575s | with these teleporters if they're going |
| 24577s | to play this Reinhard composition the is |
| 24579s | just so from the rest of the team whoa |
| 24581s | getting very low yeah you're going to |
| 24583s | have to talk to him about that one uh I |
| 24585s | thought he was charging into his own |
| 24586s | death there and who is teleporting |
| 24589s | behind there I don't know but Australia |
| 24592s | having issues with the Bastion but |
| 24594s | Canada got so desperate to finish off |
| 24596s | these kills they found themselves in a |
| 24599s | pickle so Australia somehow get get |
| 24601s | through in this fight yeah we were |
| 24603s | questioning that symmetra teleport flank |
| 24605s | and we were trying to work out where |
| 24606s | they were going because they were so |
| 24607s | split from the rest of the team but it |
| 24608s | it was just ay who was just shooting |
| 24610s | into the back of the head of the |
| 24611s | Canadian team drops the amplification |
| 24613s | Matrix and is able to trade out some of |
| 24615s | those kills and the card starts moing |
| 24617s | for Australia that was great play but |
| 24619s | you can see kaffa at 31% all charge Nami |
| 24621s | at 40% all charge they have not been |
| 24623s | able to do anything so far in this match |
| 24626s | up oh oh that's a bad death as well yeah |
| 24630s | just a random IES at |
| 24632s | range a lot of the supports are are kind |
| 24635s | of getting first blooded and I'm not |
| 24636s | even just targeting btlaw crimzone magic |
| 24638s | mate ball two and that's made a huge |
| 24640s | difference in these fights yeah and now |
| 24643s | all of a sudden it gets more difficult |
| 24644s | for the clumped up composition of |
| 24645s | Australia they're going to be running |
| 24647s | into a gravitic flux from false noxious |
| 24649s | is going to have the blizzard as well so |
| 24651s | there's going to be so many threats that |
| 24652s | they're just going to have to avoid Aki |
| 24653s | Falls now as well you spoke to It Lemon |
| 24657s | just support are falling left and right |
| 24659s | oh later wa I don't even know how that |
| 24661s | happened teleport behind somebody and |
| 24664s | pin them in fun little r strats sound |
| 24667s | bear from Canada they think this is |
| 24668s | winable especially with Calo and Canada |
| 24671s | are now playing kill confirm and |
| 24674s | Australia have half their time bank on |
| 24676s | this is getting very messy all of a |
| 24677s | sudden AI goes up in the air sound |
| 24679s | barrier Photon barrier everyone's just |
| 24681s | throwing ALS left and right to stay in |
| 24683s | this fight finally counter is going to |
| 24685s | disengage but A's got to be careful they |
| 24687s | can't get a head full of steam you can |
| 24688s | see noxious waiting there wants to drop |
| 24690s | the Bard does he manage to get it off he |
| 24693s | got St but the blizzard is still active |
| 24695s | the artillery strike from Seeker double |
| 24697s | kill and Australia are just sitting |
| 24700s | ducks sitting kangaroos I don't know but |
| 24702s | man Australia they can pull through |
| 24705s | sometimes in these chaotic moments yeah |
| 24707s | and honestly it feels like Australia |
| 24709s | wants to keep it a little messy it feels |
| 24710s | like where they're right at home but |
| 24712s | they kind of got baited into that |
| 24713s | noxious blizzard he was stuck in the ice |
| 24715s | block you saw cuffer just waiting for |
| 24716s | him to come out maybe hoping with the |
| 24718s | Earth shatter that he'd be able to |
| 24720s | cancel the blizzard before it came out |
| 24722s | but it just wasn't enough and as soon as |
| 24723s | that blizzard comes down comboed with |
| 24725s | the artillery strike there's just |
| 24727s | nothing Australia can do and now minute |
| 24728s | remaining for Australia to get through |
| 24730s | here at Matrix from |
| 24732s | primmo almost caught Australia there and |
| 24735s | they're kind of split from each other |
| 24736s | using the barriers as cover Naki placed |
| 24739s | his own amp Matrix which kind of scared |
| 24741s | Canada back to this corner |
| 24743s | Hillary strike now from Nami you got |
| 24746s | some pretty close members there of |
| 24747s | Canada they're hoping to stay alive |
| 24749s | through all of this fire 37 seconds and |
| 24752s | Australia can see the end of point a and |
| 24754s | Ka almost saw life flash before his eyes |
| 24757s | finally he's finished off he can't keep |
| 24759s | getting away with that and Canada know |
| 24761s | to punish Kappa when he doesn't have |
| 24763s | that shield and there's nothing else he |
| 24765s | can do without it Australia just aren't |
| 24768s | able to find the picks right now it |
| 24769s | feels like they're just constantly |
| 24771s | running into the endless amounts of Dage |
| 24773s | damage that Canada is throwing at them |
| 24775s | they'll have one last fight no ultimates |
| 24777s | to speak to and false has a gravic flux |
| 24780s | this is going to be difficult you're |
| 24781s | going to need something special from |
| 24783s | somebody all right last fight for |
| 24785s | Australia or will it be Canada taking |
| 24788s | the series Australia now hoping to run |
| 24792s | away from this grab flux you know Kaa is |
| 24793s | going to get killed by the rest of the |
| 24795s | team let's go for the most important |
| 24797s | ones the supports Aki is just getting |
| 24799s | backhanded by false as Australia are |
| 24802s | just scuff scuffling through the car not |
| 24805s | able to contest it for much longer and |
| 24808s | Canada take the series to oh I had |
| 24811s | something meaner to say but you know |
| 24813s | GG's |
| 24816s | man how honestly you know as much as |
| 24820s | there were some good moments from |
| 24821s | Australia team Canada definitely showing |
| 24823s | to be the better team in this series I |
| 24825s | think the way that they play coordinated |
| 24827s | they played to their strengths you could |
| 24828s | really see and I think the adaptation of |
| 24830s | putting magic Maple onto the Lucio |
| 24832s | definitely help you guys like you looked |
| 24834s | where you were disjointed yesterday I |
| 24835s | feel like the Lucio fi in some of those |
| 24837s | holes and that's I feel like we got a |
| 24840s | better explanation of the meta as as the |
| 24842s | days go on in the group stage a lot of |
| 24844s | teams are looking better almost with a |
| 24846s | Lucio Sigma or a Lucio Arisa of course |
| 24849s | this is depending on |
| 24851s | preferences like that seeker and nox is |
| 24853s | and everybody are throwing up the uh |
| 24855s | number one or L I don't know what |
| 24856s | they're throwing up but yeah well you're |
| 24858s | not number one because you also lost to |
| 24860s | Great Britain so we're both equally |
| 24862s | losers unfortunately |
| 24864s | so |
| 24865s | we Australia will take down Great |
| 24867s | Britain and it'll all be fun and we'll |
| 24868s | all have our good time and then the |
| 24870s | group will really be busted wide open |
| 24872s | but so far Australia just not able to |
| 24874s | hold up to what was against them the |
| 24876s | Reinhardt not working out like I had |
| 24877s | hoped it |
| 24879s | would oh it's a tight group be oh I |
| 24882s | don't even know who's going to come out |
| 24883s | of it maybe both of us can I don't know |
| 24886s | we we both have to beat down great it's |
| 24888s | going to be up to you but also let's go |
| 24890s | check in with the desk and how |
| 24893s | predictions when I appreciate your |
| 24898s | predictions you you know all uh Casta |
| 24902s | took that L with a lot of Grace just |
| 24904s | saying that they're now equal |
| 24906s | [Music] |
| 24907s | losers can Canada lost so much yesterday |
| 24911s | sure why not phrase it like that very |
| 24914s | graceful uh gracefully done here Costa |
| 24916s | let's talk about how they got it done |
| 24919s | Canada they definitely made the right |
| 24921s | adaptation settings the match today that |
| 24923s | a very good idea of what they want to |
| 24925s | play and how their win conditions are |
| 24927s | going to look like and they look |
| 24929s | dominant |
| 24930s | honestly look I I I predicted austral I |
| 24933s | said Ryan or Danny I don't know about |
| 24935s | you but same I me I no I want entire |
| 24939s | plan |
| 24940s | the I said I said in the prediction I |
| 24942s | was like hey I love I love a good R rush |
| 24944s | but you know Australia we only saw a |
| 24947s | glimpse of that I think towards the end |
| 24949s | uh but I mean fantastic job from Canada |
| 24952s | right I mean yeah like but before going |
| 24954s | into the match I was like I said you |
| 24956s | know they are going to be making some |
| 24957s | adjustments and I think those |
| 24958s | adjustments came in clutch like having |
| 24960s | made Magic mball on that Lucio I think |
| 24962s | helped a lot for Team Canada plus they |
| 24964s | seemed a lot more organized they seemed |
| 24967s | a lot more synchronized I think the |
| 24968s | whole team in general looked a lot |
| 24970s | better uh today compared to yesterday |
| 24973s | when they were uh fighting against Great |
| 24974s | Britain I I mean they they they CH they |
| 24977s | they p a they p a fast one on Australia |
| 24979s | really they did cuz they were like okay |
| 24981s | well we're going to agree kind of that |
| 24983s | Sigma is meta but when you play Sigma |
| 24985s | we're going to play orisa and we're just |
| 24986s | going to push the tempo and make life |
| 24988s | really difficult for kafa and then kafa |
| 24990s | was like well I'm done with your |
| 24992s | shenanigans we're going to play rinard |
| 24993s | well the problem is Kaa as much as I |
| 24995s | love you and as much as I love rinard it |
| 24998s | just ain't it currently for the most |
| 25000s | part RH not just ain't it it's very |
| 25002s | difficult to make happen against you |
| 25003s | know the likes of or and sigma for |
| 25005s | example so uh it's it's tough it was a |
| 25007s | tough match up for Australia but you |
| 25009s | know given the fact that they already |
| 25011s | got um one win against Brazil maybe you |
| 25013s | know they get a dub against Great |
| 25015s | Britain and you're looking pretty so |
| 25017s | it's not it's not it's not over yet no |
| 25019s | uh this group is still wide open |
| 25021s | honestly the only uh team which is uh |
| 25025s | currently in the best possible spot is |
| 25027s | of course the United Kingdom but that |
| 25028s | can change as well here are the current |
| 25030s | standings and man it's close in a lot of |
| 25034s | those groups I absolutely love to see |
| 25036s | that I love when our predictions are |
| 25037s | absolutely got off wrong and uh the team |
| 25041s | surpris us because why not this is what |
| 25044s | the O World Cup is all |
| 25047s | about um I I I'm going to say it I got |
| 25051s | four predictions wrong and two right |
| 25053s | today I'm still winning I got two right |
| 25054s | what a day I got two right yeah let's go |
| 25057s | woohoo been the same honestly to be fair |
| 25061s | though again we're predicting with our |
| 25062s | hearts we're just cheering those players |
| 25064s | on man just excited we're just vibing |
| 25067s | we're just vibing speaking of Vibes it |
| 25070s | is fun speaking of fun you make me |
| 25072s | change by transitions takeaways of day |
| 25075s | two there was a lot of great matches a |
| 25077s | lot of highlight worthy moments so I |
| 25079s | want to pick you guys' brain to find out |
| 25081s | what got you going starting with you |
| 25084s | Danny what's your personal highlight for |
| 25086s | me personally it was seeing team from |
| 25089s | China play we haven't seen them |
| 25090s | yesterday today was their debut and it |
| 25093s | was it was just a joy to see they were |
| 25096s | amazing you know some of these players |
| 25098s | or all of these players Shai Leaf gu |
| 25100s | monk Linka we all know them and love |
| 25102s | them and so we were I was actually very |
| 25105s | excited to see them perform today and |
| 25107s | they delivered you know so um honestly |
| 25110s | after seeing their performance I |
| 25111s | honestly think along with South Korea I |
| 25114s | think a team from China definitely is |
| 25116s | another team that could really make a |
| 25118s | Deep Run uh in the tournament I've been |
| 25120s | telling you telling you I've telling you |
| 25122s | yeah yeah you know what CH be the year |
| 25125s | you know what Johnny you you know you |
| 25127s | also told me yeah you also told me the |
| 25129s | uh the uh Prim Primal platter but uh it |
| 25133s | did yeah we didn't see that much huh we |
| 25136s | yeah he had a he had a sleep up there |
| 25137s | calling gu prival bladder uh we tried to |
| 25141s | save it with he's definitely having a |
| 25143s | lot of drip on the server but I don't |
| 25145s | think there are no recordings of this |
| 25147s | there is I you are just coming up with |
| 25149s | stuff out of thin air now it's out there |
| 25151s | it's just there there's no evidence that |
| 25153s | this was you can't just make stuff up |
| 25155s | Danny can't just do that sure yeah I |
| 25158s | just made it up I mean I I'll take |
| 25160s | credit I think that's a that's a very |
| 25161s | funny line Primal gu Primal |
| 25165s | bladder well |
| 25166s | regardless gu got his eyes on the prize |
| 25169s | so the of course leaf and Shai all three |
| 25172s | of these players have been participating |
| 25175s | in the last three o World Cups and they |
| 25177s | are eager to finally get that first |
| 25179s | placement so let's see if this is the |
| 25181s | Year Johnny what was your highlight for |
| 25184s | day number two magic mball I'm a fan |
| 25188s | that's all I'm a fan all right this |
| 25190s | picture is everything to me the fact |
| 25192s | they photoshopped in a massive Moon you |
| 25195s | mean that's a beautiful moon look at |
| 25197s | that Moon that moon is massive and look |
| 25199s | at that that W also in front of like the |
| 25202s | palm tree which means that would be the |
| 25205s | largest palm tree possible if it wraps |
| 25207s | around the moon but yeah this picture is |
| 25210s | everything so magic made ball uh you you |
| 25212s | got a new fan in me today and surely a |
| 25215s | lot of others especially the way you |
| 25217s | dominate Australia Honestly though like |
| 25219s | yes it may or may not be photoshopped |
| 25221s | but that night it it was the full moon |
| 25223s | it was the hunters Moon wolves are |
| 25225s | Hunters coincidence I last full moon uh |
| 25228s | at the 28 it was the hunters moon really |
| 25230s | yeah do you keep track of this stuff |
| 25232s | yeah because I can't sleep during full |
| 25233s | moon oh wait like really I genuinely |
| 25236s | struggle I don't know what because of |
| 25238s | the light or because like you just vibes |
| 25241s | okay the energy so I hate so magic |
| 25244s | mapall is a werewolf I can't sleep |

| 25251s | to be professional |

| 25256s | said I will not retract my statement um |
| 25261s | yeah Vibes it's all about the Vibes we |
| 25262s | had a lot of good vibes on the server |
| 25264s | and out of the server uh player cams |
| 25266s | were my personal highlights especially |
| 25269s | during the game of Team Spain and team |
| 25273s | Taiwan look at H go look at him go and |
| 25276s | TI is like you what |
| 25279s | mate you |
| 25281s | go and uh Spain they brought it today |
| 25284s | they brought it today and this is |
| 25285s | exactly the energy I want Mexico and |
| 25288s | Colombia they were also having fun with |
| 25291s | it getting the wave started there |
| 25295s | nice yeah know it's it's great to see |
| 25298s | these players you know they're literally |
| 25299s | in the same room they're they're playing |
| 25301s | the game that they love and they're you |
| 25302s | can see that they're enjoying it it's |
| 25304s | it's fun yep no that's that's what we |
| 25307s | want to see that's what we want to see |
| 25308s | have fun with it you know give it your |
| 25310s | best but also don't forget to actually |
| 25313s | just enjoy the process the journey being |
| 25315s | there on landine with those other teams |
| 25317s | and playing against some of the best in |
| 25319s | the world what a joy what a joy for them |
| 25322s | to do it what a joy for us to watch and |
| 25323s | we have much more of that coming our way |
| 25325s | tomorrow let's take a look at the |
| 25327s | schedule for day three of our group |
| 25328s | stages got some more bangers on the line |
| 25331s | here any of those standing out to you |
| 25333s | guys KSA versus USA that's going to be a |
| 25336s | good one for sure mhm right this are you |
| 25340s | going are you going to pick all the all |
| 25342s | the other the rest of all the matches no |
| 25344s | got to pick mention one I can only pick |
| 25346s | one today that I I I think I have to go |
| 25350s | with Australia against Great Britain |
| 25351s | though it's obviously a crucial match up |
| 25353s | now for Australia if they want to make |
| 25354s | it out of the groups um but then again |
| 25357s | like as we've said many times this week |
| 25360s | Group B is the toughest group and so |
| 25363s | we're go I think we're going to see some |
| 25365s | good matchups from Group B so I got to |
| 25367s | stick with the theme Here Australia |
| 25369s | Canada Great Britain all competing for |
| 25371s | two spots making out of group b uh |
| 25373s | that's the one to watch out for I |
| 25375s | generally think that group D and Group B |
| 25377s | uh manag to somehow make it equally |
| 25380s | competitive within their group I do |
| 25382s | think based on the performance from |
| 25383s | Japan and of course Saudi Arabia this is |
| 25386s | going to be tough and now France looking |
| 25388s | improve but the USA did they look shaky |
| 25391s | or or was France just a lot better like |
