| 1149s | wrecking ball you know he's supposed to |
| 1150s | be like an off-tank player right we got |

| 1173s | what that is there's something |
| 1176s | keep your eyes out for these wrecking |
| 1177s | ball players because they are going ham |

| 1202s | i'm laughing so hard that my stomach |
| 1206s | no |
| 1207s | or should i say pigsta i'm a little |
| 1209s | confused as to your attire for today |
| 1212s | because i don't think we've seen a |
| 1213s | single road hog in the tournament so far |
| 1216s | when we pitched this idea i thought we |
| 1218s | were talking about players not heroes so |
| 1220s | i feel like i missed the memo on this |
| 1223s | one but hey it works let's talk about |
| 1225s | piggy on the houston outlaws he's been |
| 1227s | absolutely incredible so far in this |
| 1229s | tournament we saw in the kickoff clash |
| 1231s | the houston outlaws were kind of one |
| 1233s | dimensional with that dante doomfist and |
| 1235s | it didn't feel like piggy was ever |
| 1237s | getting any legs but oink oink he's here |
| 1239s | in the mid-season madness tournament he |
| 1241s | has been playing everything as well he |
| 1243s | has been playing desire as you can see |
| 1245s | right here on the screen pretty good |
| 1246s | against that doomfist we've also seen it |
| 1249s | move over to the sigma on maps like |
| 1250s | circa royale he's even picked up the |
| 1252s | winston here on dorado he has been |
| 1255s | impressive on them as well like usually |
| 1257s | when we see some of these other off-tank |
| 1259s | players move over to the main tank roll |
| 1261s | it can be pretty hit and miss but piggy |
| 1264s | has been impressing me so far even on |
| 1266s | the reinhardt the the |
| 1267s | the pig heart if you will i don't know i |
| 1270s | i don't have as good of ones as you |
| 1271s | johnny but |
| 1273s | you can't it's the pink queen and you |
| 1275s | can't be |
| 1276s | too upset with what piggy has been doing |
| 1278s | so far in this tournament and you can't |
| 1280s | not love him either he's so animated in |
| 1283s | his camps he's such a funny personality |
| 1285s | to have in the league i'm the piggy fan |
| 1287s | that's why i got a piggy one john i love |
| 1289s | it okay well it's great from wrecking |
| 1290s | ball and roadhog but guys listen you |

| 1374s | hey |
| 1378s | [Music] |
| 1410s | [Music] |
| 1419s | [Music] |

| 1472s | [Music] |
| 1489s | [Music] |
| 1527s | welcome back to watchpoint |
| 1529s | although we weren't invited to hawaii we |
| 1531s | made up for it by harvesting a nice |
| 1532s | coconut harvest for ourselves |
| 1535s | in sunny irvine california also if you |
| 1538s | live near the blizzard campus and saw a |
| 1539s | girl in a monkey costume stealing |
| 1541s | coconuts from your trees no you didn't |
| 1545s | there's coconuts here it's california |
| 1547s | what what |
| 1549s | i'm pretty sure i've seen coconut trees |
| 1550s | i don't i don't think that's fruit palm |
| 1552s | trees don't they have coconuts in them i |
| 1554s | don't think so maybe are they |
| 1558s | you're asking a sweden in australia |
| 1560s | you're the one who's supposed to know |
| 1561s | this i thought |
| 1563s | boys regardless these are very special |
| 1565s | coconuts because inside each and every |
| 1568s | one of these are the teams which are the |
| 1570s | lower seeds in today's brackets now |
| 1572s | you're going to select a coconut without |
| 1574s | knowing which team is inside and then |
| 1576s | you're going to explain how that team is |
| 1578s | going to pull off an upset against the |
| 1580s | higher seeded team that they are playing |
| 1581s | against all in a segment that we like to |
| 1584s | call |
| 1585s | coconut set |
| 1587s | we didn't |
| 1589s | it was late when we had to come up with |
| 1591s | the name for that one so i feel like |
| 1592s | that wasn't our best i was not part of |
| 1594s | that conversation |
| 1595s | i really like it we were here until like |
| 1597s | i think one in the morning and i think |
| 1599s | that was our best |
| 1601s | i think that was our best idea |
| 1604s | but rainforest we're going to start with |
| 1605s | you first so pick your first coconut |
| 1607s | show us who you have and tell us how |
| 1609s | that team is going to pull off the upset |
| 1611s | and you get the that one yeah you start |
| 1613s | with that one |
| 1615s | you ready |
| 1617s | reveal its wonders |
| 1618s | what do we got |
| 1620s | it is |
| 1622s | the florida |
| 1624s | man |
| 1628s | do i have to say what lord are going to |
| 1629s | win now they're going to win |
| 1632s | but what if they can't |
| 1634s | no that's not that no |
| 1635s | you got this come on coconut florida |
| 1637s | they got upswings |
| 1639s | uh they're not too many ball players i'm |
| 1641s | lost uh |
| 1643s | florida mayhem yes of course the florida |
| 1645s | mayhem uh they have a chance to beat the |
| 1647s | philadelphia fusion here today uh i was |
| 1649s | impressed by the way they reverse sweep |
| 1651s | their own spitfire big mental big mental |
| 1654s | strength there being able to overcome |
| 1655s | the o2 deficit i like their first |
| 1658s | engagements here checkmate i think that |
| 1660s | he's a very tactical tracer player the |
| 1662s | way they took down hardy early on and |
| 1664s | gained themselves a man advantage big |
| 1666s | pull sponsor great by the way from |
| 1667s | checkmate that's a very hard you know |
| 1669s | looking downwards widowmaker shot if you |
| 1671s | played overwatch you know how hard it is |
| 1672s | those shots as well they have the |
| 1674s | strategical depth here for the florida |
| 1677s | miami to overcome the philadelphia |
| 1679s | fusion yeah |
| 1683s | what's the strategical depth that you |
| 1685s | like about them um i like their plans |
| 1687s | their compositions they're well thought |
| 1688s | out the shot calling the rotations the |
| 1690s | uh the team planning of course uh for |
| 1692s | example we could see that at nineveh |
| 1693s | point b yesterday the way they decided |
| 1695s | to approach the payload instead to draw |
| 1697s | the opponents away from the castle the |
| 1699s | high ground in a way to force player |
| 1700s | movement so i i like the strategical |
| 1702s | things from florida they're very smart |
| 1704s | very smart team so maybe they could |
| 1706s | outsmart their opponents in the fusion |
| 1708s | today so if they play smart that's how |
| 1709s | they could pull off the coconut set |
| 1712s | i did my best |
| 1713s | i like i just have to keep finding ways |
| 1715s | to say coconuts but custa you're up next |
| 1718s | to go ahead and choose your nut |
| 1721s | i feel it |
| 1722s | i think this one |
| 1724s | you say i have to choose this one's |
| 1725s | called the blue one i can tell that it's |
| 1727s | calling to you |
| 1728s | i got |
| 1730s | the overwatch league oh no wait a second |
| 1732s | i got the atlanta right um |
| 1734s | the atlanta rain this is an easy one |
| 1736s | actually i got yeah this is you guys you |
| 1738s | guys listen |
| 1740s | the atlanta reigns just beat the seoul |
| 1741s | dynasties this should be if they can |
| 1744s | beat the seoul dynasty they can beat the |
| 1746s | houston outlet the sole dancer did go |
| 1747s | out there yeah but seoul dynasty are the |
| 1749s | best and you know why because they got |
| 1751s | kai kai is one of the best hit scans we |
| 1753s | have in the world we're always like ooh |
| 1755s | is kai really the best the east have |
| 1757s | such great hit scans kai |
| 1759s | dominated fitz on their attack he was |
| 1762s | all over them we know that he has that |
| 1764s | prowess to take over games so he can do |
| 1766s | that then you look at this back line |
| 1767s | they have ultraviolet and og og is |
| 1770s | showing the ability to play these double |
| 1771s | flex support heroes if they need to do |
| 1774s | it so they're just this talented |
| 1776s | backline that is just starting to get |
| 1777s | into their own on the playoff stage and |
| 1780s | then you know venom on that tracer he |
| 1782s | went toe-to-toe with profit in map five |
| 1784s | in the final team fight of all time and |
| 1786s | won the traits of 1v1 you know how many |
| 1788s | other people have done that before |
| 1789s | nobody nobody nobody has ever been able |
| 1791s | to shut down playoff p in the moment |
| 1794s | atlanta rain they got this easier over |
| 1795s | the houston outlaws houston alola's |
| 1796s | going to choke as they always do that's |
| 1798s | pretty good oh well ouchy for all the |
| 1800s | houston fans who are watching us right |
| 1802s | now but uh johnny for you squeak squeak |
| 1804s | squeak squeak squeakums yes |
| 1807s | which means of course select your next |
| 1809s | coconut that one's just too far away no |
| 1811s | you don't get the pink one i you you get |
| 1813s | that one it's closer to you |
| 1816s | wow real real mom vibes today my guys |
| 1821s | you took |
| 1825s | [Laughter] |
| 1826s | for our next team is going to be |
| 1830s | the shanghai dragon |
| 1834s | you get an easy one the shanghai dragons |
| 1837s | i mean i don't even know who put this |
| 1838s | thing here number five against the |
| 1840s | number one san francisco shock but look |
| 1841s | okay the shanghai dragons they're going |
| 1843s | to win this one easy okay they are the |
| 1846s | 2021 champs they found their group they |
| 1849s | figured out the five versus five issues |
| 1851s | lip he is the best hitscan player in the |
| 1853s | world that's right he's better than shy |
| 1854s | lip is just a phenomenal player and he's |
| 1856s | going to dominate in today's game as |
| 1858s | well they have the experience they |
| 1860s | played so many playoff games together |
| 1862s | whereas san francisco shocked they're |
| 1863s | coming in with rookies san francisco |
| 1864s | shock of course they underperformed in |
| 1866s | the kickoff clash tournament this is |
| 1867s | just prime time for the dragons to come |
| 1870s | out on top and really show us that |
| 1872s | veteran experience being able to live up |
| 1874s | to the moment i think the shanghai |
| 1876s | dragons are looking so good right now |
| 1877s | whether it's void here playing sigma |
| 1879s | circuit real life on the widowmaker |
| 1881s | faith and his shot calling the way i |
| 1882s | approached the wrecking ball i think |
| 1884s | it's phenomenal yes the back line been a |
| 1886s | bit of a question mark but i'll be there |
| 1888s | question mark for the shanghai dragons |
| 1889s | it hasn't really been you know summer |
| 1890s | showdown 2021 levels but it's going to |
| 1892s | be completely fine the dragons they're |
| 1896s | going to come out on top on the san |
| 1897s | francisco show it's just way too much |
| 1898s | confidence going up against the number |
| 1900s | one seed i did it bad mouth you're |
| 1902s | atlanta rain pick but it's because i had |
| 1905s | i had they're playing against the |
| 1906s | houston outlaws |
| 1907s | but the san francisco shock are a |
| 1910s | phenomenal team and they look to be |
| 1911s | coming into their own i just i guess i |
| 1913s | feel like you're being |
| 1915s | too unfair to the shock but he's right |
| 1916s | shanghai dragons are the fact that |
| 1918s | they're even number five save this stuff |
| 1920s | yeah i mean didn't the san francisco |
| 1921s | shock have that one uh c9 moment so they |
| 1924s | aren't flawless everyone's having they |
| 1927s | can bleed oh no |
| 1929s | everyone's had a bad day |
| 1931s | all right well there's only one coconut |
| 1934s | left so scott i believe that is yours to |
| 1936s | select power of deduction my last one is |
| 1939s | going to be |
| 1941s | quicha |
| 1943s | i'm i've even i've even dressed up for |
| 1945s | the occasion oh you match the hongzhou |
| 1947s | spark are looking dominant this is a |
| 1950s | team that has always struggled to show |
| 1951s | up in the playoffs but they had a great |
| 1953s | first match knocking down the seoul |
| 1955s | dynasty into the low brackets so they've |
| 1957s | been incredible the los angeles |
| 1959s | gladiators i needed to be more |
| 1960s | convincing well okay just i'm ramping up |
| 1963s | johnny okay the los angeles gladiators |
| 1965s | we always talk about how great this team |
| 1967s | is but they just dominate the west the |
| 1968s | west schmest the east is where the real |
| 1971s | powerhouses are that's where shai is |
| 1973s | that's where alpha yi the valiant the |
| 1975s | guantanamo challenge yeah those great |
| 1978s | great teams that exist in the east |
| 1980s | the cheyenne after you though have been |
| 1982s | on a different level we always talk |
| 1983s | about shai but alpha yi on that tracer |
| 1985s | in that match against seoul was |
| 1987s | absolutely ridiculous he went toe-to-toe |
| 1990s | with the goat and came out on top but |
| 1992s | now has shown his flexibility so far and |
| 1995s | even gucci has come in to play that week |
| 1997s | and i i've been harsh on the goose way i |
| 2000s | think he's a little washed but he's been |
| 2001s | performing so well in the playoffs right |
| 2003s | now that i can't even you know be too |
| 2005s | upset about it and irony and super rich |
| 2007s | were able to deflect the dive the super |

| 2027s | little cup big hopes and dreams in that |
| 2029s | cup and he's sipping it every day and |
| 2032s | that's why they're going to get the win |
| 2034s | are you flicking all these cards he's |
| 2036s | flicking it you don't see that he's |
| 2037s | making i'm making a pile it's a very |

| 2346s | one fans that's explained so much where |

| 2351s | everything |
| 2352s | get that get him back out of his head |
| 2353s | get him back in all right guys well it |
| 2356s | may be the last match of the day but we |
| 2358s | couldn't wait to talk about the san |
| 2359s | francisco shock versus the shanghai |
| 2361s | dragons both of these teams have been |
| 2363s | dominant in the last few years of the |
| 2365s | league so this is the battle of the |
| 2367s | giants for the uninitiated let's take a |
| 2370s | look at what these teams have |
| 2371s | accomplished scott san francisco shock |
| 2373s | one of the best franchises that we've |
| 2375s | ever had in the league we don't talk |
| 2376s | about 2018 but uh they've been dominant |
| 2379s | since then the 2019 grand finals 2020 |
| 2381s | grand finals winners they were |
| 2383s | incredible they were just above everyone |
| 2385s | else by such a large margin they have |
| 2387s | had a bit of a stumble in the 2021 |
| 2390s | season they just didn't live up to the |
| 2392s | expectations with a couple of those |
| 2393s | newer players but they're back 2022 |
| 2396s | they've added a lot of new rookies they |
| 2399s | look to be a dominant franchise and |
| 2400s | they're currently undefeated in the |
| 2401s | regular season so |
| 2403s | shock you know poised to take a |
| 2405s | championship that's a pretty nice |
| 2406s | looking resume but johnny how are the |
| 2408s | dragons looking they're looking pretty |
| 2409s | good all things considered recently |
| 2412s | shanghai dragons have been on top so |
| 2413s | yeah san francisco shock might have two |
| 2415s | championships shanghai dragons have the |
| 2417s | most recent championship and they've |
| 2418s | been so dominant since the 2020 season |
| 2421s | of course dominating in the apac region |
| 2423s | separate from the shock winning all |
| 2424s | those stage titles there and then also |
| 2427s | winning the grand finals last year you |
| 2429s | know that'll fuel they started out a bit |
| 2430s | ahead i would argue last season of |
| 2432s | course winnie the main melee etc but the |
| 2434s | latter half of the season it was all |
| 2436s | shanghai dragons so this is really the |
| 2439s | battle of like the two most successful |
| 2440s | franchises in overwatch league history |
| 2443s | so uh we're in for a treat yeah now |
| 2445s | custom while the dragons have been |
| 2446s | winning and have looked good so far |
| 2448s | throughout the tournament you have some |
| 2449s | concerns about the backline yeah the |
| 2451s | back line has been a little iffy so far |
| 2454s | for me you know li jig on an iziyaki you |
| 2456s | know you just talking about the |
| 2457s | dominance of them recently they were |
| 2459s | really the pioneers of like the backline |
| 2461s | especially with izyaki on that zenyatta |
| 2463s | he is just an aggressive player likes to |
| 2466s | use that transcendence as a personal |
| 2467s | healing tool and a get out of jail free |
| 2469s | card but the rookie finn has been |
| 2472s | stepping up this season and in the |
| 2473s | mid-season madness qualifiers so far |
| 2476s | he has just been incredible look at him |
| 2478s | beating him in damage healing final |
| 2480s | blows def sorry offensive assists and |
| 2482s | has less deaths and i want to give |
| 2484s | credit to finn because he is a rookie |
| 2486s | the rookie is becoming the master but |
| 2488s | for me if the shanghai dragons are going |
| 2490s | to make this big comeback it needs to be |
| 2492s | back on the back of izayaki i think he |
| 2494s | has not been having those same level of |
| 2496s | performances on that zenyatta as he has |
| 2498s | in the past so |
| 2500s | you know come on izzy i believe in you |
| 2502s | now johnny throughout their history the |
| 2504s | shock have been dominant and a lot of |
| 2506s | that comes off the back of innovation |
| 2508s | and strategies that other teams just |
| 2510s | quite frankly don't run and they're |
| 2512s | doing it once again |
| 2514s | yeah uh the san francisco shock i mean |
| 2516s | we're about to show a staff card that is |
| 2518s | just like so crazy when you actually |
| 2520s | take a look at it they have been playing |
| 2522s | more diva than anyone else and i just |
| 2525s | don't mean like more diva like they've |
| 2526s | been playing all the diva |
| 2528s | what is this collusion with almost 30 |
| 2531s | minutes of play time on the diva so far |
| 2533s | in the mid-season madness tournament and |
| 2534s | meanwhile hanbin is second with one |
| 2536s | minute 15 seconds on route yesterday |
| 2539s | sorry what so of course a bit of an old |
| 2541s | pick here bringing out the diva in the |
| 2543s | mid-season madness tournament but i like |
| 2544s | it for the san francisco show the added |
| 2547s | defensive capabilities with the defense |
| 2548s | matrix it ensures that you can protect |
| 2550s | sam you can protect um kilo as well on |
| 2553s | those long range hitscan picks and it |
| 2555s | makes it difficult for the opponent to |
| 2556s | come in and get value you have the |
| 2558s | defense matrix you have an immortality |
| 2560s | field it gets hard to wrap up those |
| 2562s | final blows for the opponents and so i |
| 2563s | like this added defensibility for the |
| 2566s | core of their team which is the backline |
| 2567s | and their long-range hit scan and proper |
| 2569s | he can just you know blink around do |
| 2571s | proper things get a couple of picks and |
| 2573s | well there you have it you survived long |
| 2575s | enough to find yourself in a mad |
| 2576s | advantage so i like the diva pick coming |
| 2578s | out from the shop and it's an added |
| 2580s | extra a little bit of a quirk for the |
| 2581s | shanghai dragons to deal with |
| 2584s | unfortunately we didn't really have a |
| 2585s | diva onesie for one of us to wear as |
| 2588s | we're talking about you know the tank |
| 2589s | match-ups but i don't think i would do |
| 2591s | well in the diva onesie you know it's |
| 2593s | it's very tight i feel like i like the |
| 2595s | baggy piggy outfit a little bit yeah i |
| 2597s | heard that you pulled off a good mercy |
| 2598s | though my mercy cosplay was good yeah i |
| 2600s | committed i shaved the legs yeah no all |
| 2602s | don't google it content warning uh but |
| 2605s | yeah no no i mean again as we're talking |
| 2607s | about tanks we don't have the diva we |
| 2608s | also don't have uh |
| 2610s | i guess a tank onesie for the next |
| 2611s | player that i'd like to talk about |
| 2612s | because the tank matchup is getting very |
| 2614s | interesting because the dragons are |
| 2616s | throwing in some wrinkles as well yeah |
| 2617s | the shanghai dragons and fate most |
| 2619s | recently said in an interview yeah we |
| 2621s | have played a lot of wrecking ball but |
| 2623s | that's just been because that's what |
| 2624s | we've needed to do no one has really |
| 2626s | pushed us into our other strategies that |
| 2628s | we have in our back pocket and we most |
| 2630s | recently saw one of those strategies |
| 2632s | with that doomfist fate picking it up he |
| 2634s | hadn't played it at all so far this |
| 2636s | season but in the playoffs he picked it |
| 2637s | up and was very good at it and we know |
| 2639s | how great of a player fate is on this |
| 2642s | tank roll and he was able to step up so |
| 2645s | i think that might be an important thing |
| 2646s | you know you just talked about johnny |
| 2648s | the diva a different look coming from |
| 2650s | the team i was a little worried about |
| 2652s | the flexibility of the shanghai dragons |
| 2654s | coming into this you know playoff |
| 2655s | situation are they only going to be able |
| 2657s | to die on that wrecking ball hill but i |
| 2659s | actually think there's a lot more there |
| 2660s | than we give them credit for so i'm |
| 2662s | excited to see more from fate and the |
| 2664s | shanghai dragons and what they can show |
| 2666s | definitely excited again this is the |
| 2668s | final match of the day so we do have |
| 2670s | quite a few other games to get through |
| 2672s | before we get to see these two face off |
| 2674s | but gentlemen |
| 2675s | it's that time once again it's time to |
| 2678s | see predictions |
| 2680s | i'm leading i'm leading a prediction |
| 2682s | that's not true only me i think it is |
| 2683s | just me no ties just me don't fact-check |
| 2686s | that but let's go ahead and take a look |
| 2687s | at our predictions for today |
| 2692s | oh |
| 2693s | yes scott |
| 2696s | okay i want to defend oh wow that's |
| 2698s | that's a back and forth |
| 2700s | let me defend my juice and pick as well |
| 2701s | because it's completely something out of |
| 2703s | the server atlanta rain i know how short |
| 2706s | this turnaround is for them to play |
| 2707s | another match because we were also here |
| 2709s | late last night they only have like a 12 |
| 2711s | hour turnaround to recover get ready for |
| 2713s | the next match while houston should be |
| 2715s | rested i think that might weigh on them |
| 2717s | and i think that might be difficult for |
| 2718s | them to get back into the server but |
| 2720s | it's going to be a close match okay but |
| 2721s | kai tweeted that lebron gift i would be |
| 2723s | scared |
| 2724s | he did he's hecks i need a change |
| 2728s | before my handshake spark pick over the |
| 2731s | l.a gladiators |
| 2733s | i don't have anything to say |
| 2735s | oh oh what did they do that's cuz what |
| 2738s | are you doing is this how hamsters eat |
| 2740s | fruit no one wants to watch this anymore |
| 2742s | no one wants to watch this anymore we're |
| 2743s | going to go to a quick break because |
| 2745s | that's it for watch point day four of |
| 2746s | the mid-season madness tournament starts |
| 2748s | right now oh and stop it |
| 2752s | but i'll beat you to the finish line |
| 2754s | cause we ought to get it feeling fine |
| 2755s | keep it up and we'll be creeping up one |
| 2757s | another |
| 2759s | the team hits a shadow of his own and |
| 2760s | pins charon to the wall as long as he |
| 2762s | can the point is allowed to flip down |
| 2764s | the mayhem sweep them away unbelievable |
| 2768s | are you ready |
| 2778s | [Music] |
| 2782s | what the hell did i just win this uh |
| 2784s | pardon all right looks like pork's back |
| 2786s | on the menu boys leopard killed two |
| 2789s | and he jumps at sides three |
| 2794s | it's a double pulse and double pulse in |
| 2797s | overtime maximum opening is shy looks |
| 2800s | incredible mirror what |
| 2804s | where did that come from |
| 2807s | [Music] |
| 2816s | well i think we can all agree matthew |
| 2818s | that the mid-season madness so far has |
| 2821s | delivered and here in the lower bracket |
| 2823s | the stakes are continuing to get higher |
| 2825s | and higher it's elimination time for |
| 2826s | both these teams and hopefully somebody |
| 2828s | there is helping johnny out maybe giving |
| 2830s | him some counselling because what he |
| 2831s | just did to that banana that should not |
| 2832s | be allowed |
| 2834s | yeah i think i saw a soda pop and eat a |
| 2836s | banana once uh |
| 2838s | yeah i say no more man that doesn't |
| 2840s | really help johnny's case as far as i'm |
| 2842s | concerned yeah the desk is you know look |
| 2844s | it was a late night last night crazy |
| 2846s | games like we were just talking about |
| 2847s | okay like the games have been incredible |
| 2849s | this week uh for the most part like |
| 2851s | every game has been like relatively like |
| 2853s | even if it was like a 3-1-3-0 it's like |
| 2855s | been close like back and forth uh i |
| 2858s | think this first game is kind of set up |
| 2859s | to be something like that as well they |
| 2860s | talked about atlanta with like a quick |
| 2862s | turnaround uh from last night to today |
| 2865s | uh but it atlanta is a team that rise to |
| 2868s | the occasion i would not be |
| 2870s | shocked if they come in and you know |
| 2871s | look pretty fresh oh i love that you |
| 2872s | point that out because obviously the |
| 2874s | atlanta reign are coming off an |
| 2875s | incredible match against the seoul |
| 2877s | dynasty a team packed by so many to be |
| 2880s | the best or at least one of the best |
| 2882s | over in the eastern region they overcome |
| 2884s | that ridiculous challenge but their next |
| 2886s | match up it's super charged with emotion |
| 2889s | all right houston versus atlanta it's a |
| 2892s | classic matchup with the last time these |
| 2894s | two teams met it was an unreal c9 |
| 2897s | situation in map five uh an expression |
| 2900s | on hawke's face that will be |
| 2902s | immortalized the shock of what had |
| 2904s | happened to the atlanta reign they're |
| 2906s | here to run it back now not only for |
| 2908s | their survival here in the mid-season |
| 2909s | madness but also to settle an old score |
| 2912s | i think uh a lot of c9s this season is |
| 2915s | players just trying to figure out uh |
| 2917s | that's one lesson right diva diva or |
| 2920s | lucio right uh those would be the |
| 2921s | players that would get on and touch um |
| 2925s | you know this is kind of like where you |
| 2927s | would uh |
| 2928s | stay like they're |
| 2930s | they're definitely going to be up for it |
| 2931s | today like there's not going to be a |
| 2933s | uh situation where they forget to get |
| 2935s | onto the payload i also thought one of |
| 2937s | the the more interesting interesting |
| 2939s | things is like you know how they've |
| 2940s | committed to this setup with hawk is the |
| 2942s | tank now he's able to |
| 2944s | play against seoul dynasty last night |
| 2946s | against smurf like in winston and stuff |
| 2947s | like that which is like right up smurf's |
| 2949s | wheelhouse one of the best in the world |
| 2950s | and uh yeah it looked fine and took the |
| 2953s | win smoke is so similar in that regard |
| 2955s | he was hailed as the really flexible |
| 2957s | tank that you know was rotated he was |
| 2959s | super back in the heyday of that san |
| 2961s | francisco shock but he's the man on your |
| 2963s | screen a lot of investment into this guy |
| 2966s | to make the tank roll on this team |
| 2968s | indomitable let's throw have a look at |
| 2970s | the other side of the aisle here is |
| 2971s | again these two teams are in the same |
| 2974s | room now an inauspicious loss to the los |
| 2977s | angeles gladiators for the outlaws with |
| 2979s | some extra spice at the end on social |
| 2981s | media you'd better believe a fire in the |
| 2983s | belly for this team then they've had a |
| 2984s | day off to prepare themselves now |
| 2986s | fighting for their survival the winner |
| 2988s | of this game goes on and takes the win |
| 2990s | takes on the winner of what shock and |
| 2992s | the dragons the loser they're headed |
| 2994s | home |
| 2995s | yeah i mean that is uh |
| 2998s | this tour whoever wins this tournament |
| 2999s | like this is the uh hardest road right |
| 3002s | like they're you know turn them into the |
| 3004s | past you have like four teams even like |
| 3006s | you know eight but not international |
| 3007s | like |
| 3008s | just think about like oh well after you |
| 3009s | get past this round and losers you'd |
| 3011s | have to play the loser of shock dragons |
| 3013s | like it's not really a a great prize uh |
| 3017s | you know you could kind of go home with |
| 3018s | dante's starting here uh for the elbow |
| 3021s | so that tells you uh some doom fist here |
| 3023s | in map number one uh and it is the |
| 3025s | outlaws map pick |
| 3027s | yeah absolutely they'll be selecting uh |
| 3029s | oasis first up in this series spoilers |
| 3031s | uh as they come in as uh the higher seed |
| 3034s | not by much but again being able to |
| 3036s | select that control map makes a big |
| 3038s | difference especially when you're you're |
| 3040s | playing with a tank that we know dante |
| 3042s | doesn't play a ton of stuff outside the |
| 3043s | doomfist right this team this outlaws |
| 3046s | team they are opposite to the reign in |
| 3048s | that they're pretty telegraphed in what |
| 3051s | their composition choice is going to be |
| 3052s | based on what tank they've got in up |
| 3054s | until now oh we just got a smile out of |
| 3056s | kai hello you know uh one of the the |
| 3059s | first times ever i think got a little |
| 3062s | glimpse of why i |
| 3063s | think it was something uh funny one of |
| 3065s | the outlaws players did on their side of |
| 3068s | uh |
| 3069s | of the uh set up but |
| 3072s | i i think kai versus merits like a crazy |
| 3074s | matchup right when they uh when they |
| 3075s | were ranking the sojourns like a few |
| 3076s | weeks ago they were up there uh |
| 3079s | like really like near one and two uh |
| 3082s | both of them like a really strong |
| 3083s | argument for either of them being |
| 3086s | one of the best in the region uh in the |
| 3088s | west so excited to see that match up |
| 3091s | yeah i think that merit flew under the |
| 3093s | radar for for much of this season |
| 3095s | honestly until surgeon was playable and |
| 3097s | then we started to see him alongside a |
| 3099s | lot of other hitscans really make their |
| 3101s | mark something to look out for no one |
| 3103s | can take away uh that triple clap the |
| 3105s | triple kill with the one rail that we |
| 3106s | saw from maradona coliseum that was |
| 3108s | obviously an incredible moment but he's |
| 3110s | looking to add to that cache of memories |
| 3112s | here |
| 3113s | with some dominant play on oasis gonna |
| 3116s | be our first map in this series and |
| 3117s | again it's gonna be loser pick here in |
| 3118s | this first to three series and to |
| 3121s | reiterate ladies germs |
| 3123s | winner takes on the shock uh the sorry |
| 3126s | the loser of the shock and dragons and |
| 3127s | the losers goes home and what i'm what a |
| 3130s | match to have for an elimination match |
| 3132s | already trash talking the lobby there's |
| 3134s | trash talking in the room there's gonna |
| 3135s | be plenty of that from start to finish |
| 3138s | that's what i love about atlanta i know |
| 3141s | some people are like i don't really love |
| 3142s | the the trash talk right but i |
| 3144s | i mean i love it uh no |
| 3147s | coming from call of duty uh no it's kind |
| 3149s | of |
| 3150s | kind of just ingrained in you we all |
| 3152s | want something different out of this |
| 3153s | whole experience right but uh even even |
| 3156s | people that sort of don't like |
| 3158s | the vibes of the atlanta reign have to |
| 3160s | admit that this team has been impressive |
| 3162s | for quite some time |
| 3163s | i like trash talk i know you've been |
| 3165s | asking for years that they just had like |
| 3167s | a little pip in the bottom of the |
| 3168s | gameplay that's just you standing there |
| 3170s | casting do you remember what trump was |
| 3172s | at 20 dollars to make your dreams happen |
| 3174s | was that 2020 world cup where like they |
| 3176s | were able to pip ourselves |
| 3178s | because we were like |
| 3184s | they go back and watch those games that |
| 3185s | was uh it was a hell of a time uh that |
| 3187s | was acid with uh josh because he started |
| 3190s | a match and brent was in the bathroom |
| 3192s | yeah we just like picked a headset up |
| 3194s | and someone heard me getting angry |
| 3195s | because there's no watercolor branded as |
| 3197s | a diva forever uh |
| 3198s | damn tracer versus genji here uh that's |
| 3201s | really kind of the thing you look at |
| 3202s | from both of these teams that's the the |
| 3204s | difference where pelican he's had like |
| 3207s | you know some big moments with like |
| 3208s | blades i feel like but just uh kind of |
| 3210s | without that ultimate a little bit up |
| 3212s | and down performances on the genji so |
| 3213s | see how it works out his echo has been |
| 3215s | great especially against like the |
| 3216s | anti-winston or on the anti-winston plan |
| 3219s | it's a good start here though hawk |
| 3220s | eventually just kind of loses out in the |
| 3221s | neutral there if you could even say |
| 3223s | there's one with these compositions iris |
| 3225s | and merritt though merida is doing a lot |
| 3226s | of work here from the sidelines it's |
| 3228s | definitely an outlaws fight win to kick |
| 3230s | us off started off by pelican |
| 3232s | yeah he got in there there was a discord |
| 3234s | on to hawk and then they were able to |
| 3236s | put down some damage and i think that's |
| 3238s | a little bit more of the advantage of |
| 3239s | the genji versus tracer like i think the |
| 3241s | tracer can get in and finish those kills |
| 3243s | off but obviously takes a little bit |
| 3245s | with the blinks depending on how many of |
| 3246s | them you still have available right uh |
| 3248s | you have to get in there finish it off |
| 3250s | pelican just dashes on in just able to |
| 3252s | cut right through hawk and take him out |
| 3254s | pretty easy i'd suggest that this is the |
| 3256s | kind of game the venom really has to go |
| 3258s | above and beyond here it's a tough |
| 3260s | matchup at all times matching pelicans |
| 3262s | impact is going to be crucial and that's |
| 3264s | a great start take that caster curse |
| 3266s | down as venom finding an opening here in |
| 3268s | this fight by removing dante but again |
| 3270s | point could be hard to flip here you |
| 3271s | better believe the outlaws are gonna try |
| 3273s | and make this a little difficult but |
| 3274s | with errors going down they lack the |
| 3276s | infrastructure to mount a response |
| 3279s | yeah that's a nice long range sleep |
| 3280s | there from ultraviolet uh onto last year |
| 3283s | at long range and |
| 3285s | it's one that usually it will stall out |
| 3286s | for a little bit but like you mentioned |
| 3288s | the outlaws not able to hold on really |
| 3290s | there at all and you keep that one going |
| 3292s | uh you know they do come back though |
| 3294s | here with a nano blade available i know |
| 3297s | potentially all five ultimates available |
| 3299s | uh coming into this next fight so |
| 3301s | if they they're able to get a good blade |
| 3303s | here out of pelican they can flip this |
| 3304s | rather quick og drops off the high |
| 3306s | ground they're just concerned about |
| 3308s | we're getting picked off as he would |
| 3309s | have to wait for a bit for that passing |
| 3311s | to kick in yeah this is nano do for sure |
| 3313s | and it's in response to dante jump in |
| 3315s | hawk trying to deal with the enemy |
| 3316s | doomfist here as dante goes low but he |
| 3318s | gets a nano himself and he's gonna |
| 3319s | meteor strike on out of there oh my |
| 3321s | there is he's not ready for this medial |
| 3324s | strike and that is a flat armor |
| 3326s | unfortunately for the rain dante's be |
| 3328s | going to work on the back line himself |
| 3329s | it seems neither team's been able to |
| 3331s | stop the doomfist from getting in there |
| 3332s | but dante has a bigger impact |
| 3335s | yes |
| 3336s | we don't see a little bear because |
| 3338s | ultraviolet is in like a really nice |
| 3339s | spot he's trying to sit in the corner |
| 3341s | get a biotic grenade from behind but i |
| 3343s | think dante just kind of like shoots out |
| 3345s | of a cannon there on the doom face so |
| 3347s | the nano and he's able to just roll |
| 3349s | through |
| 3350s | players on the atlanta reign so just |
| 3352s | like that atlanta they do get up to 45 |
| 3354s | they make it close but houston able to |
| 3356s | flip it and with only using the meteor |
| 3358s | strike and the nano boost |
| 3360s | merit once again |
| 3362s | into the middle of the map and that's a |
| 3363s | big hit that venom just took discord or |
| 3365s | bottom there so he has to recall |
| 3367s | annoying for him to waste that so early |
| 3368s | on he'll have to hope it comes back |
| 3370s | online quickly but kai's found dante |
| 3372s | headshot with the rail and now he's |
| 3373s | looking for the backline doesn't respect |
| 3375s | the transcendence but doesn't see mirror |
| 3377s | coming with an overclock of his own |
| 3378s | that's two for merit now |
| 3380s | clearing the way for the rest of the |
| 3382s | outlaws here to continue to mount |
| 3384s | he's pretty nasty looking score 84 and |
| 3386s | counting matthew atlanta are struggling |
| 3388s | to keep in step yeah and that is one |
| 3391s | where it looked like atlanta potentially |
| 3393s | was going to be able to come in make a |
| 3395s | play for the point but mero with the |
| 3396s | overclock was just too strong there and |
| 3398s | now last year able to keep a teammate up |
| 3400s | using the transcendence hunting gets |
| 3402s | right on top of kai forces him out it's |
| 3404s | gonna be venom getting on the touch |
| 3406s | then i'm looking for last row oh the |
| 3408s | hulk goes down what a huge pick off |
| 3410s | lassro has time to flip the bird to his |
| 3412s | opponents and get a huge kill like that |
| 3414s | on a hawk that's ridiculous houston in a |
| 3417s | great spot now and pelicans really just |
| 3418s | trying to do this for insurance's sake |
| 3420s | who chase ochi down the kick is oh it's |
| 3423s | so frustrating as genji's he struggles |
| 3425s | to get to grips but pelicans done more |
| 3427s | than enough this round as the outlaws |
| 3428s | secure it |
| 3432s | i think just really first kills there |
| 3433s | you know marriott was able to pick up a |
| 3435s | few on the sojourn they did a nice job |
| 3437s | of discording hawk and making his life |
| 3439s | pretty difficult on the doomfist we'll |
| 3441s | see if they're able to |
| 3443s | replicate it yet again |
| 3444s | i'd also say for delano |
| 3447s | if you don't win this map uh it doesn't |
| 3449s | go your way |
| 3450s | you could really kind of force the |
| 3452s | outlaws into what composition they play |
| 3453s | moving forward right with your map |
| 3455s | selections as we know they kind of uh |
| 3457s | rotate those tanks around and have |
| 3459s | specific looks for each one yeah take a |
| 3461s | look from merits pov so got a kill |
| 3464s | earlier yeah and then one with a |
| 3465s | disrupter shot and then finishes off |
| 3468s | then a |
| 3468s | biotic grenade that's nice |
| 3472s | very tidy little finish there for |
| 3474s | houston but that really was about the |
| 3476s | first pick i think oj just ripped uh |
| 3479s | excuse me last row rip talk a new one at |
| 3480s | the start of that fight having no |
| 3482s | doomfist means you have |
| 3484s | minimal pressure on the enemy back line |
| 3486s | makes it even easier |
| 3488s | and we're going to see kylie come out on |
| 3490s | ash and something interesting is like we |
| 3492s | haven't seen a ton of ash |
| 3494s | uh |
| 3496s | in the world really for the western |
| 3498s | teams yeah we've seen it in the east but |
| 3500s | not exactly in the west as uh venom gets |
| 3502s | left there |
| 3504s | someone tried to surgically extract |
| 3506s | lastro's foot from venom's behind before |
| 3508s | they can respawn |
| 3510s | um yeah look and you can see how like |
| 3512s | the disadvantage at range that merits |
| 3513s | suffers against ash can be circumvented |
| 3516s | by uh power sliding forward |
| 3519s | and uh just trying to to belt uh that |
| 3521s | enemy ash before they have a chance to |
| 3522s | respond so that's a question from |
| 3524s | houston taking the space away from kyle |
| 3529s | maybe houston knows how important this |
| 3531s | match is for last row |
| 3536s | there's a lot on the line there's two |
| 3537s | friends that extra prize money |
| 3539s | he's gonna start uh |
| 3542s | at least |
| 3543s | we'll have a tally for you |
| 3545s | yeah maybe that's what he was trying to |
| 3547s | give his teammates more motivation like |
| 3549s | hey |
| 3550s | if only the outlaws have more scrim |
| 3551s | bucks to pay that off with |
| 3553s | unfortunate |
| 3556s | i mean he's uh he's earning his keep you |
| 3558s | know i mean i don't know if last year |
| 3561s | he had not been able to get anything |
| 3562s | going man |
| 3563s | like |
| 3565s | the outlaws just upping the pace like |
| 3568s | pushing atlanta back where |
| 3570s | like there's not even a lot to talk |
| 3571s | about from the planet's pov like let's |
| 3573s | see how they come in here like a nano |
| 3574s | maybe on a hawk but and look at houston |
| 3577s | you got the overclock you got a nano of |
| 3578s | your own you got a blade like now you |
| 3581s | win these fights in such dominant |
| 3583s | succession like you're going to end up |
| 3584s | like 70 on the point all the ultimates |
| 3586s | that you can |
| 3587s | dream of here i want to reiterate venom |
| 3590s | has to have a big impact here last time |
| 3591s | we did like he's stuck on really nice |
| 3592s | pulse for dante that's how you should |
| 3594s | start these fights hawk is getting shut |
| 3596s | down consistently oh then i don't know |
| 3598s | you know you're walking into that dji |
| 3600s | mate oh my pelican |
| 3602s | absolutely ripped limb from limb by og |
| 3604s | there who then has himself a quiet sit |
| 3606s | down with iris another atlanta reign |
| 3609s | back in control a little bit spay in |
| 3610s | that fight to be fair |
| 3612s | but again nice job there really setting |
| 3614s | og up to bring the paint |
| 3617s | yeah now you have a transcendence so uh |
| 3620s | no blade on the other side you use it |
| 3622s | pretty freely what they have to worry |
| 3623s | about though is like uh the last time |
| 3625s | they used it trying to keep ultraviolet |
| 3626s | alive it was uh here's a nice biotic |
| 3628s | grenade then you still have merit able |
| 3630s | to take him out through that is right |
| 3631s | now you have to be so careful going up |
| 3633s | against america he's able to like just |
| 3635s | build up this charge on the switch just |
| 3637s | make these railgun shots connect feels |
| 3639s | like almost every time |
| 3641s | here's under pressure transcendence |
| 3642s | aggressively from emoji goes forward but |
| 3644s | it's a bit of a non-boy because hawk |
| 3646s | actually got out of the fight as og was |
| 3648s | trying to go aggressive and there's |
| 3649s | ultraviolet failed by a rail gun kai at |
| 3651s | least is able to fire one back but it's |
| 3653s | just not enough and again it's dante |
| 3656s | having a way bigger impact than hawk has |
| 3658s | been able to so far there are a lot of |
| 3660s | things going right for the outlaws here |
| 3661s | in the atlanta right need to sort |
| 3663s | themselves out quick |
| 3665s | i also feel like uh you know they |
| 3667s | they've really made hawks life pretty |
| 3669s | difficult uh you know atlanta trying to |
| 3671s | play around him maybe not the best setup |
| 3673s | at the current moment because he went in |
| 3675s | and made an impact there and i know him |
| 3677s | i'm gonna chase down pelican here uh but |
| 3680s | they tried to follow it up with the |
| 3681s | meteor strike and the transcendence and |
| 3682s | it just wasn't enough the the atlanta |
| 3685s | rain may flip this year but everybody's |
| 3686s | alive for houston coming back no i don't |
| 3688s | know if they're flipping this at all |
| 3690s | they're down to two players before this |
| 3691s | fight really starts kyopp had to go and |
| 3694s | touch he had no choice but man the rain |
| 3696s | could have benefited from his firepower |
| 3698s | in a moment like that surely the houston |
| 3700s | outlaws a strong start here |
| 3703s | and looking pretty pleased to themselves |
| 3705s | well i mean the faces actually they |
| 3707s | normally pull so it's really up to your |
| 3708s | interpretation but i'm going to say for |
| 3709s | the sake of a good story that they're |
| 3711s | looking pleased smile on the face of |
| 3714s | last row there and a great start for |
| 3716s | houston matthew gotta be feeling pretty |
| 3717s | good about that first round |
| 3720s | yeah i do do think though atlanta rain |
| 3722s | with their map selection can really |
| 3723s | force what they want out of the outlaws |
| 3725s | that's what i'm interested to see moving |
| 3726s | forward yeah keep your eyes on that |
| 3728s | let's see what atlanta end up choosing |
| 3729s | and how the outlaws respond can we |
| 3731s | exploit the telegraph nature of |
| 3733s | houston's tanks we'll find out |
| 3741s | um |
| 3754s | [Music] |
| 3792s | [Applause] |
| 3794s | [Music] |
| 3835s | [Music] |
| 3847s | [Music] |
| 3857s | [Music] |
| 3888s | [Music] |
| 3927s | [Music] |
| 3935s | cool |
| 3940s | [Music] |
| 3948s | so |
| 3975s | [Music] |
| 3983s | is |
| 3985s | [Music] |
| 4008s | [Applause] |
| 4013s | having the highest seed in this match |
| 4015s | the houston outlaws make their selection |
| 4017s | of control map |
| 4018s | up first enough to take oasis away |
| 4020s | pretty comfortably |
| 4022s | now that the atlanta ranger to make a |
| 4024s | selection mat they're definitely looking |
| 4025s | to play to their strengths so what do |
| 4027s | houston have in response |
| 4030s | yeah so atlanta ends up picking king's |
| 4032s | row here for map number two uh i believe |
| 4035s | we saw them played this against the |
| 4036s | seoul dynasty the other night they ran |
| 4038s | hawk on the winston uh and dante will |
| 4041s | stay in for the houston outlaw so tells |
| 4044s | you you're gonna be dealing with the |
| 4045s | doomfist cops and i think if you're |
| 4047s | atlanta rain you kind of know like hey |
| 4048s | where can we take advantage of some of |
| 4050s | this uh stuff maybe you feel like it's |
| 4052s | getting through |
| 4054s | all right let's go a little deeper then |
| 4055s | how do the atlanta rain take advantage |
| 4057s | of presumably going up against the |
| 4059s | doomfist set up here for the outlaws |
| 4062s | and so oh what on kings road defense |
| 4064s | like you have like multiple options |
| 4066s | right like could they play a winston bay |
| 4067s | set up uh you know that's possibility |
| 4070s | for the atlanta reign here uh now that |
| 4072s | we've seen hawk play that sigma is |
| 4074s | available right where the houston |
| 4076s | outlaws don't really and we haven't seen |
| 4078s | dante play sigma i'm sure you know he |
| 4080s | can play it but just have what level |
| 4083s | uh a lot of different options here |
| 4086s | uh |
| 4087s | for the atlanta reign to play where |
| 4089s | houston is kind of just full committing |
| 4091s | here |
| 4092s | to the doomfist where yeah so on defense |
| 4094s | like i mentioned you can play the sigma |
| 4095s | winston |
| 4096s | uh they're gonna play sigma here to try |
| 4098s | and control some of the high ground now |
| 4099s | we've seen this matchup happen on a |
| 4101s | couple of different maps actually where |
| 4103s | a midtown is one i think of right where |
| 4105s | we see doomfist going up against the |
| 4107s | sigma often tries to unseat the sigma |
| 4109s | force them away from his back line or |
| 4111s | just deny him that like that handy off |
| 4113s | angle setup that those signals often go |
| 4115s | for |
| 4116s | again to what degree is hawk gonna be |
| 4117s | able to respond to you know dante's |
| 4119s | dives here |
| 4120s | that's probably a question for the |
| 4121s | atlanta reign to answer |
| 4123s | i do feel like there's better |
| 4125s | options for high ground control here |
| 4126s | than like midtown on the defensive side |
| 4128s | of things right when you're looking at |
| 4129s | midtown like you're just kind of set up |
| 4131s | by that subway and that choke they can |
| 4133s | just kind of run through like here |
| 4134s | you're just gonna allow them to move |
| 4136s | through the choke but once you're |
| 4137s | through right you have complete control |
| 4138s | of this high ground still |
| 4140s | so you can see how the rain has spread |
| 4142s | here along that top |
| 4145s | causeway |
| 4146s | and again the outlaws have a lot of |
| 4148s | checkpoints that need to pass if they |
| 4150s | want to get to the back line at all our |
| 4152s | first pick here would be huge obviously |
| 4153s | usually like a sojourn manufacturing a |
| 4155s | pick across the map can't count on those |
| 4156s | but they've been crucial in the past |
| 4158s | they pap on the kind of player that's |
| 4159s | been able to manufacture those |
| 4161s | but merit closes the gap already through |
| 4163s | the hotel wants to pressure venom down |
| 4165s | the orbs are coming in thick and fast |
| 4167s | and og claims what |
| 4169s | i was gonna say the supports for the |
| 4170s | atlanta reign up on the high ground uh |
| 4172s | no ultraviolet was able to hit a big |
| 4174s | biotic runny that hits dante and pelican |
| 4177s | the first go-around and you can see it |
| 4179s | at the top of the screen there's kind of |
| 4180s | like paying attention to you know |
| 4182s | dante's box in particular now he jumps |
| 4184s | to the high ground he got hit with an |
| 4185s | accretion discord orb on him constantly |
| 4188s | uh makes it very difficult to stand up |
| 4190s | there and kind of try and trade as a |
| 4192s | doomfist |
| 4193s | against the sigma based compositions and |
| 4195s | i think the supports especially though g |
| 4197s | getting to pick there on the zen even |
| 4199s | just kind of dealing with the players to |
| 4200s | his left dealing of players on the point |
| 4202s | doing a nice job |
| 4204s | knows he can barely interact with people |
| 4206s | in og's position unless he closes the |
| 4208s | gap somehow his primary fire is not |
| 4209s | built for that kind of range so the |
| 4211s | outlaws give it a tickle drop onto the |
| 4213s | point briefly now as pelican looks to |
| 4214s | try and isolate some play but always |
| 4216s | sees a sigma and an accretion |
| 4218s | immediately after he's able to back away |
| 4220s | and dante tries to dive again an og |
| 4222s | deflects another |
| 4224s | and they actually use the nano boost |
| 4226s | there onto dante but falls before he can |
| 4228s | get him uh yeah and i i don't even know |
| 4232s | if the actual impact made it there even |
| 4234s | like the damage direction or anything i |
| 4236s | think it was something where i know nano |
| 4238s | like you can kind of almost like |
| 4239s | it's a really weird like almost like in |
| 4241s | flight like you know kill somebody like |
| 4244s | and they don't get the effects of it |
| 4245s | that's what it kind of looked like so |
| 4246s | you don't have that uh big key ultimate |
| 4248s | here for the houston outlaws |
| 4250s | devastating because ultraviolet sure as |
| 4253s | heck holds under here that can go to og |
| 4255s | or hawk fork obviously got a great |
| 4257s | candidate for that in any case but |
| 4259s | still an option |
| 4261s | so dante takes the low ground here and |
| 4262s | he's hoping to fight venom in to the |
| 4264s | lightest side of merit presumably and |
| 4266s | the outlaws are still trying to maneuver |
| 4267s | trying to force the rain out of their |
| 4268s | hidey holes but so far not so great |
| 4270s | venom gets a nano but has to recall out |
| 4272s | so dante's able to get in position to |
| 4273s | protect iris against the nano tracer and |
| 4276s | then step towards the point here's the |
| 4277s | transcendence from last row though where |
| 4279s | providing flux might break this up |
| 4280s | though as pelican looks to try and get |
| 4281s | some free damage in midair and that's |
| 4283s | the bio to follow it up ultraviolet |
| 4285s | douses the outlaws in his concoction and |
| 4287s | houston nice back to the drawing board |
| 4289s | isn't it |
| 4290s | yeah that is three players here with |
| 4292s | that biotic grenade has played a landing |
| 4294s | there for the houston outlaws as that'll |
| 4296s | be a kill on the venom is outlaws still |
| 4298s | lingering around the point |
| 4300s | one minute left here is lastro |
| 4303s | is that on the point now dante moves |
| 4304s | into position |
| 4306s | kai |
| 4306s | the cogs turning in his head right here |
| 4308s | deciding whether or not it's time to go |
| 4310s | for the ultimate pressure on mirror but |
| 4312s | pelican has been coming |
| 4314s | he sees him and the transcendence is in |
| 4316s | place oh gee comes to the rescue just in |
| 4318s | time then pelicans are able to find any |
| 4320s | value from that blade he's a doomfist |
| 4322s | high being pressured oh get finds |
| 4323s | another one he's having such a big |
| 4325s | impact against the enemy tanks and now |
| 4327s | supports his last rose felt as well |
| 4329s | the the supports for atlanta reign have |
| 4331s | dominated this first half of play uh |
| 4334s | they have been tremendous being able to |
| 4336s | stay alive on the high ground i know |
| 4338s | some extra damage from og ultraviolet |
| 4340s | constantly hitting these big biotic |
| 4342s | grains pelicans gonna switch off the |
| 4343s | genji not working here but no tank |
| 4345s | switches of course from houston because |
| 4347s | they don't with this setup which means |
| 4350s | that the rain i don't know what they're |
| 4352s | going up against at any time |
| 4354s | pelican again wants to it hawk this time |
| 4356s | with the echo |
| 4358s | dante takes a health pack here venom |
| 4360s | there was no hell back for him to pick |
| 4361s | up so he has to recall instead |
| 4362s | frustrating for the tracers venom's out |
| 4364s | of the fight for a couple seconds but |
| 4366s | pelican finds kai the sticky bombs |
| 4367s | connect on the slow journal that's a key |
| 4369s | defender down until they come with a |
| 4370s | second and they should be houston |
| 4372s | finally breaking through kind of a |
| 4374s | little sleep there but it won't be |
| 4375s | enough |
| 4378s | watch break here from the outlaws as |
| 4381s | pelican on the echo made an impact right |
| 4384s | you know the sticky bombs being able to |
| 4385s | get a little bit more uh vertical like |
| 4387s | even above where land is setting up so |
| 4390s | elena looks like they're making some |
| 4391s | changes as you can see edge gets right |
| 4393s | into the window as kai is nothing you |
| 4395s | can do about that |
| 4397s | beautiful stuff pelican makes a switch |
| 4399s | at the last moment |
| 4400s | one of the pieces of this outlaws |
| 4401s | composition that is extremely flexible |
| 4404s | and they make use of that |
| 4406s | when and as they can so two minutes ten |
| 4408s | on the clock here atlanta reign have got |
| 4410s | to be happy you know i'm mean king's |
| 4411s | throat the long map plenty of pitfalls |
| 4413s | for the unwary here and they got a pulse |
| 4415s | bomb to work with |
| 4416s | venom |
| 4417s | not expecting that little stash |
| 4420s | and uh something of a change here for |
| 4422s | the atlanta rain they've actually |
| 4423s | switched ultraviolet off of the on it |
| 4425s | over to the batiste so |
| 4427s | having the immortality field uh being |
| 4429s | able to fight a little bit longer there |
| 4431s | nice pulse bomb |
| 4433s | that's going to connect on the ears |
| 4435s | no the houston outlaws they just push up |
| 4437s | right after that first pit yeah it's |
| 4438s | getting og at the start of that fight |
| 4440s | that's really impactful ultraviolet |
| 4442s | doesn't really have the chance to |
| 4443s | respond to rail guns with that |
| 4445s | immortality kill so if ochi is like |
| 4447s | if he's low enough and health if he |
| 4448s | takes enough poke damage ultraviolet |
| 4451s | can't save him and that's kind of what |
| 4452s | happens in that fight |
| 4454s | and this might be fast enough where |
| 4456s | you're gonna make up like you're not |
| 4457s | gonna make up all the time right but |
| 4458s | you're gonna make up enough time to give |
| 4460s | yourself an opportunity here at the end |
| 4462s | the outlaws are able to take the second |
| 4464s | checkpoint right now |
| 4466s | pelican waiting for them to come out he |
| 4469s | doesn't do anything he knows that he's |
| 4470s | just going to force a recall and not get |
| 4472s | a kill here's the gravity flux though |
| 4474s | lasts for affected by but w's |
| 4475s | transcendence pretty much immediately |
| 4477s | merit banking on piano build up that |
| 4479s | ultimate before this fight really gets |
| 4480s | hot and heavy it's gonna be dante down |
| 4482s | to start with this is great for the |
| 4483s | defenders here immortality field gonna |
| 4485s | force pelicans back in a way the hawk |
| 4487s | eventually falls both teams without |
| 4488s | their tanks and the transcendence in |
| 4490s | play here for og mirror trying to get |
| 4492s | value off the railgun here he'll |
| 4493s | eventually bring down the enemy zenyatta |
| 4495s | but it's gonna be a trade 3v3 pelican |
| 4497s | was in a dupe of sigma for a time but |
| 4499s | it's kind of stand up three for kai and |
| 4501s | counting that's four |
| 4503s | to really break this deadlock down but |
| 4505s | dante's back in the fight venom has a |
| 4506s | recall though he actually can't fight |
| 4508s | the doomfist right now he needs to wait |
| 4510s | for hawk and finally the cavalry's here |
| 4512s | oh they're able to hold on as that goes |
| 4515s | right down to the wire it's ultraviolet |
| 4518s | being able to use that jump from the |
| 4519s | batista get to the high ground there |
| 4521s | with kai as uh venom was able to contest |
| 4523s | that was clutch as i know atlanta rain |
| 4526s | you have this |
| 4527s | ant matrix you can use on the high |
| 4528s | ground pelican goes off of the echo now |
| 4530s | goes over to the genji |
| 4533s | all right what kind of value do you oh |
| 4535s | that's a great start dante lobe he gets |
| 4537s | netted immediately that's going to |
| 4538s | inoculate himself but now yep that's a |
| 4540s | classic isn't it that's just bloody |
| 4541s | brilliant |
| 4542s | the atlanta raid and outlaws no for the |
| 4544s | c9 there's another one for you |
| 4548s | well look at dante's low |
| 4551s | there's no tracer there |
| 4553s | no lucio right so i think team paints |
| 4555s | probably expect him with the nano to get |
| 4557s | onto it uh we didn't see it from his |
| 4560s | perspective like whether he used the |
| 4562s | seismic slam to maybe like i think he |
| 4564s | did |
| 4565s | get away or got stuck either way he |
| 4567s | wasn't doing it towards the card right |
| 4570s | yeah or he could have done it to like |
| 4571s | more of the the left or the right of the |
| 4573s | card and maybe he thought he's within |
| 4575s | like the hitbox radius of the cart but |
| 4578s | not actually but |
| 4579s | uh still pretty good defense there from |
| 4581s | the atlanta ring really good on uh point |
| 4583s | a |
| 4584s | uh |
| 4585s | you know all the way through that |
| 4586s | straight phase it was looking like the |
| 4588s | outlaws type of game but |
| 4589s | atlanta able to clutch up at the end |
| 4592s | yeah look i mean and like you said a lot |
| 4594s | of that is really set up by how stoic |
| 4596s | they were on that first point the sigma |
| 4598s | composition |
| 4599s | and like you mentioned a little bit |
| 4601s | harder to unseat the sigma or at least |
| 4602s | he has sort of more favorable defensive |
| 4604s | positions than a map like midtown where |
| 4606s | you sort of play by the train cart i |
| 4607s | hope you don't get knocked off here it |
| 4609s | is the anatomy of a c9 okay so |
| 4612s | so really you're kind of looking at from |
| 4614s | so the ant matrix nobody wants to walk |
| 4616s | into you oh the punch |
| 4618s | the punch on the genji was what got it |
| 4619s | pelican can't touch he tries to i think |
| 4621s | when he gets knocked back |
| 4623s | that's filth oh yeah |
| 4625s | that's a huge play from hawk there oh |
| 4627s | i'm going to be absolutely screaming at |
| 4628s | a replay sorry |
| 4633s | he'll scream at anything |
| 4635s | it was pretty crazy |
| 4637s | oh all right |
| 4640s | it's a huge play by hawk though right uh |
| 4643s | because they fully probably expect |
| 4644s | pelican to be the one that touches there |
| 4645s | it's a good uh good catch obviously not |
| 4648s | able to do so that ends their whole hand |
| 4650s | coming back from the doom big play dante |
| 4652s | nicely picked up ultra violet |
| 4654s | dove d for that one but he comes up with |
| 4656s | a good wonder if we i wonder if we see |
| 4658s | the batiste whis switch here for the |
| 4660s | atlanta ring pelican |
| 4662s | uh playing the tracer here not the genji |
| 4664s | um |
| 4665s | but you know if you're gonna be prone to |
| 4667s | this dive and and not be able to get in |
| 4670s | a |
| 4670s | really advantageous position you know |
| 4672s | maybe the batiste and play a little bit |
| 4674s | more defensive is the right way to go |
| 4677s | yeah hawk just trying to get his team in |
| 4678s | a position to poke down this sets og up |
| 4681s | right gives him a safe bodies to try and |
| 4682s | do this damage from get five orbs |
| 4685s | dude now coined the turret |
| 4686s | just dropped the shot there just uh |
| 4688s | between hawk and his back line so no |
| 4690s | huge impact there nice little rail |
| 4691s | connection oh gee |
| 4693s | getting hit markers dancing is extremely |
| 4695s | low it hasn't been topped up yet so |
| 4697s | almost two ticks now and counting |
| 4698s | houston they're playing this on hard |
| 4700s | mode and penny's asleep yep that'll be |
| 4702s | the finish venom finds him and kai |
| 4703s | brings dante down it feels like we found |
| 4706s | a critical mass here in this attack for |
| 4708s | the atlanta reign and they're gonna have |
| 4710s | a pretty smooth sail here to the rest of |
| 4712s | the map |
| 4712s | yeah that is a sick sleep with uh just |
| 4715s | so much pressure being put and look at |
| 4717s | this this is gonna be a uh |
| 4719s | pretty long stagger so you're going to |
| 4720s | be without your honor for a while but |
| 4722s | what sets that up is they just get dante |
| 4724s | so weak right at the beginning of biotic |
| 4726s | grenade the discord orb on him uh takes |
| 4728s | a ton of damage and not able to like |
| 4729s | really heal him up in time because it |
| 4731s | looks like everybody was quite low hey |
| 4733s | you're asking about the the potential |
| 4735s | batiste switch right but obviously that |
| 4736s | honest sleep against enemy doomfist is |
| 4738s | pretty crucial and if you hit a tracer |
| 4740s | then |
| 4741s | it's all over red rover at that point |
| 4744s | 435 that is a beefy |
| 4746s | beefy number |
| 4748s | and the outlaws don't it doesn't feel |
| 4750s | like they have the luxury of being able |
| 4751s | to come up here and fight uh pretty |
| 4753s | aggressively looks like they're gonna |
| 4755s | have to wait especially now losing last |
| 4756s | row they're in a world of trouble |
| 4760s | atlanta rain building up like an |
| 4762s | avalanche |
| 4763s | he's getting a bit hot in here though |
| 4764s | kyle wants to pressure down the pulse |
| 4766s | button locked there by pelican just |
| 4768s | hey i guess pelican trying to play safe |
| 4770s | and not to get too close but makes it |
| 4772s | impossible for him to guarantee a stick |
| 4773s | and this cart is still on the move oh |
| 4776s | man the outlaws under extreme duress |
| 4779s | right now and they need to come up with |
| 4780s | a way to break this surge in momentum |
| 4783s | merit that's what you want explodes |
| 4784s | forward and gets rid of venom |
| 4785s | immediately with a rail gun he also has |
| 4787s | plenty more up his sleeve with that |
| 4789s | overclock hawks able to pick himself |
| 4791s | back up and get a shield but he's in a |
| 4792s | very compromising position and |
| 4794s | desperately ultraviolet was trying to |
| 4795s | keep him alive but he just couldn't do |
| 4797s | it houston find the stop they need at |
| 4799s | the critical moment |
| 4801s | yeah and for atlanta you invest the |
| 4803s | transcendence there and obviously it |
| 4804s | doesn't work out still a ton of time uh |
| 4807s | kind of happy you don't really throw |
| 4809s | anything else at it right like don't try |
| 4811s | and throw your big flux at it you know |
| 4812s | if you would have gotten the overclock |
| 4814s | like save those uh because the outlaws |
| 4816s | are in a spot where they cannot hold on |
| 4818s | anything they're gonna have to use |
| 4820s | ultimates constantly to be able to hold |
| 4822s | this on defense and |
| 4823s | secure it and then eventually you'll |
| 4825s | figure you're gonna get an ultimate |
| 4827s | advantage at one point |
| 4830s | it might just be a matter of waiting for |
| 4831s | that to come around |
| 4833s | let's see how much patience atlanta are |
| 4834s | able to display here as lastro is |
| 4838s | all he's showing the strategy for the |
| 4840s | double birds right now where that blows |
| 4841s | up in his face what a huge mistake to |
| 4843s | have made here |
| 4845s | daddy |
| 4846s | but he's taking a ton of damage and kai |
| 4848s | he's already made short work of iris oh |
| 4851s | golly gee |
| 4852s | oh gee though can't get himself out of |
| 4854s | that situation no transcendence so |
| 4855s | pelicans might have put the alloys in a |
| 4857s | position where they can salvage this |
| 4859s | scuppered ship but there's three on the |
| 4861s | card that's moving awful fast here the |
| 4863s | outlaws have pelican to step up and he |
| 4866s | well he combusts |
| 4867s | yeah oh that's unfortunate uh maybe if |
| 4870s | you would have been able to get a touch |
| 4871s | there the accretion from hawk knocks |
| 4874s | dante back |
| 4875s | because you had transcendence rolling |
| 4877s | there for the outlaws maybe you're able |
| 4878s | to make something out of it but atlanta |
| 4880s | secures their map |
| 4883s | images taking moments before disaster i |
| 4885s | feel like on board with lassros zenyatta |
| 4887s | trying to flank play a cheeky angle and |
| 4889s | immediately getting absolutely ranched |
| 4892s | not what the outlaws were looking for |
| 4893s | there but it feels like they were always |
| 4895s | playing from behind with their |
| 4896s | composition so let's see how they try |
| 4897s | and play to their strengths |
| 4899s | we got a match on our hands so don't go |
| 4900s | far map three after the break |
| 4918s | [Music] |

| 5140s | when we in the zone don't play around i |
| 5142s | got strap put your back tell you now we |
| 5144s | laying it down yeah |
| 5146s | bands up trapped out i bring the doors |

| 5152s | clout think smart this crucial crucial |
| 5155s | we ain't no average usual nah |

| 5160s | [Music] |
| 5172s | and there's no better time than now it's |
| 5174s | the mid-season madness global tournament |
| 5176s | rages on submit your arts celebrating |
| 5178s | the team or region you'd like to see win |
| 5181s | it all on the overwatch league fan art |
| 5183s | gallery and if you're looking for a game |
| 5185s | to draw some inspiration from this match |
| 5188s | is already establishing itself early as |
| 5190s | a bit of an instant classic the rain on |
| 5193s | the outlaws again locked in this |
| 5194s | seemingly endless struggle this time it |
| 5196s | is for survival and they've gone back |
| 5199s | and forth matthew in these first couple |
| 5201s | of maps |
| 5202s | yeah when i when you're just reading |
| 5204s | that for the art gallery i just thought |
| 5205s | about uh you know the desk for their |
| 5206s | predictions being able to just like draw |
| 5209s | them out tomorrow or something like that |
| 5211s | like |
| 5212s | they've just been going wild there in |
| 5214s | the truck |
| 5215s | with the hangzhou |
| 5216s | by the way that's gigantic that was |
| 5218s | spicy that was spicy but you know you |
| 5221s | know how johnny selects you know if he's |
| 5222s | if he's wrong he's like i was just you |
| 5224s | know just trying to be under there's |
| 5226s | content he's right he's like see i told |
| 5227s | you guys yeah well you know it's a he |
| 5230s | makes a |
| 5231s | loose situation you know yeah so that's |
| 5233s | the point uh piggy and for dante houston |
| 5236s | outlaws matt pick |
| 5237s | uh they picked dorado here so |
| 5240s | uh we've seen piggy play a little bit of |
| 5242s | winston uh recently um you know |
| 5245s | obviously piggy a very good sigma player |
| 5248s | uh so maybe you want to bring that in to |
| 5249s | try and match hawk in that type of role |
| 5252s | maybe we get like a really |
| 5254s | i mean some really bizarre right because |
| 5256s | it's kind of what you're going to see in |
| 5257s | like overwatch 2 obviously in 5v5 but |
| 5259s | like |
| 5260s | a battle of two players who are |
| 5261s | traditionally off tanks playing main |
| 5263s | tanks possibly |
| 5265s | uh i also think uh potentially setting |
| 5268s | up for a really good uh you know |
| 5271s | long-range hit scan battle for between |
| 5272s | kai and merritt |
| 5275s | that's definitely going to be exciting |
| 5276s | on a map like this neither team i mean i |
| 5279s | don't feel like atlanta really prefer to |
| 5281s | play that much we don't make her right i |
| 5283s | definitely seem more comfortable having |
| 5285s | kai on the sojourn hey he dubs it up |
| 5287s | quote unquote boring hero |
| 5290s | when you see him play it looks uh i mean |
| 5292s | nothing but exciting so |
| 5293s | that's definitely something to be |
| 5294s | looking forward to and we've seen that |
| 5296s | match up already over the course of this |
| 5297s | series but |
| 5299s | like you said man dorado is the kind of |
| 5300s | map where that particular head-to-head |
| 5304s | gets amplified that head-to-head really |
| 5306s | comes under the microscope here is we |
| 5308s | see teams often leveraging that longer |
| 5310s | range hitscan uh potential to create |
| 5313s | space or at least to pave the way |
| 5314s | forward for attackers i'm excited to see |
| 5317s | this battle of tanks especially |
| 5319s | and merit is actually a really good |
| 5321s | series so far uh so if you are the |
| 5323s | outlaws like you'll put your faith in |
| 5325s | him and start making some plays even |
| 5328s | further uh so it'll be the outlaws and |
| 5329s | defense and look at this so uh pelican |
| 5332s | he's been kind of going back and forth |
| 5333s | between like tracer genji a little bit |
| 5335s | echo there |
| 5336s | on king's row but he'll come out with |
| 5338s | tracer here to start uh and then you're |
| 5340s | gonna have merit on the ash so |
| 5343s | not like a widowmaker here or no sojourn |
| 5345s | you're gonna play the ash at long range |
| 5347s | uh the ash pretty good in combination |
| 5350s | with the sigma right being able to kind |
| 5352s | of stand behind the shield i know put |
| 5354s | some damage down with the zen uh players |
| 5356s | come in you got coach gun you have the |
| 5358s | biotic grenade right to kind of like |
| 5360s | stop that dive |
| 5362s | uh lana rain obviously with some options |
| 5364s | here as soon as uh the door opens and |
| 5367s | they get a look at what is gonna be on |
| 5369s | the other side uh for me does hawk end |
| 5372s | up staying hawk is asleep uh does hogg |
| 5374s | end up staying on the winston i think |
| 5376s | this is like a another big test for hawk |
| 5378s | because i know trying to play some more |
| 5380s | winston he looked pretty good on it |
| 5385s | again you know |
| 5386s | the rain |
| 5387s | will look to leverage a bit of a |
| 5388s | difference in tank styles here this time |
| 5390s | she's on the other foot right i already |
| 5392s | saw hawk on the on the signal beforehand |
| 5394s | but this hardly |
| 5395s | i mean hardly any presence here from the |
| 5397s | outlaws early they really just want to |
| 5398s | play this choke man |
| 5400s | yeah they're gonna they're gonna back up |
| 5402s | but this choke is where like space opens |
| 5405s | up and the winston can you know get in |
| 5407s | get behind make a make a play here in |
| 5409s | combination with venom |
| 5412s | well we'll see pelicans got to be super |
| 5413s | careful here with the sojourn discord |
| 5416s | orbs coming down that staircase every |
| 5417s | time he peeks his head out he takes a |
| 5419s | you know and all voices incidental |
| 5421s | damage from somewhere |
| 5423s | pelican good purchase on venom so far |
| 5425s | he's been able to stave him off but the |
| 5426s | pressure is mounting the atlanta reign |
| 5428s | are definitely |
| 5429s | trying to force an error |
| 5431s | there are no kills being happened here |
| 5432s | but atlanta is just getting so much |
| 5433s | space like hawk like i mentioned was |
| 5435s | able to just jump into the back stay |
| 5437s | alive inside of his winston bubble and |
| 5439s | that just forces yellows to keep backing |
| 5441s | up backing up backing up like eventually |
| 5443s | look at this i mean you're gonna get |
| 5444s | this payload pretty close to getting on |
| 5446s | in it's gonna be a nano boost built up |
| 5448s | already is gonna give that on the hawk |
| 5450s | as a pretty odd first point here if the |
| 5453s | cap goes across the line yeah a lot that |
| 5454s | sleep down on hawk there makes it harder |
| 5456s | to get value out of the nano boost and |
| 5458s | the outlaws have some players back in |
| 5459s | position to defend venom looking at the |
| 5462s | fringes and he's found last row now can |
| 5463s | he deal with this then oh flying foot |
| 5465s | came his way before he recalled pulse no |
| 5467s | good last draw comes out on top |
| 5470s | and he gives the reign |
| 5471s | uh another gesture this one chewing them |
| 5474s | away far less you know far less against |
| 5476s | the rules this one won't get fined for |
| 5478s | yeah it's uh |
| 5480s | houston battles back there at the end uh |
| 5482s | they end up using the nano i believe |
| 5484s | that is actually on the last show and i |
| 5486s | think it probably just in response to |
| 5487s | the pulse bomb uh no iris probably |
| 5489s | doesn't know at that point kind of uh |
| 5491s | whether it's been stuck or what not so |
| 5493s | ends up just kind of like firing it off |
| 5495s | uh but you won't have it here |
| 5497s | and this is what i was uh looking |
| 5498s | forward to at the beginning of this map |
| 5500s | potentially we get a piggy winston |
| 5502s | versus hawk winston battle |
| 5505s | they're nice to see that switch back |
| 5506s | there houston realizing or deciding |
| 5508s | they'd like to be a little bit more |
| 5510s | proactive here instead of |
| 5511s | kind of hoping that the rain overextend |
| 5513s | in some manner or another |
| 5515s | so with that said |
| 5517s | still the outlaws currently take the |
| 5519s | high ground they've given up a lot of |
| 5521s | map control already kai is safely |
| 5523s | embedded here and obviously you'd still |
| 5524s | need to get through hawk and code before |
| 5526s | you did anything like that |
| 5528s | trying to punish pelican there for that |
| 5529s | positioning pie not able to |
| 5534s | pelicans still here lurking behind enemy |
| 5536s | lines this would be big |
| 5538s | yeah ultraviolet hatch that one like an |
| 5540s | egg matthew pelican has to recall again |
| 5542s | because it's just pointless to commit |
| 5544s | i'll do a |
| 5546s | but still it looks like the outlaws get |
| 5547s | what they came for here in a big way |
| 5550s | yeah it outside of that odd first push |
| 5553s | it's really been all outlaws since |
| 5554s | they've been able to stand strong on |
| 5556s | defense here is |
| 5558s | og not in a position to be able to like |
| 5560s | save ultraviolet there i know from a |
| 5562s | pulse bomb stick is atlanta they're |
| 5564s | going to bank on having all five |
| 5566s | ultimates coming in this fight |
| 5568s | kai trying to keep that charge nice and |
| 5570s | high |
| 5571s | an early pick here would be |
| 5573s | immensely helpful |
| 5575s | whether he does with the rail or with |
| 5577s | the ultimate |
| 5579s | not so relevant primal rage here from |
| 5580s | hawke i'm here and bob on the scene |
| 5583s | yeah they're going to let that one go |
| 5584s | here piggy taken down by a pulse bomb |
| 5586s | they're going to land together i mean |
| 5587s | they build up those alternates man they |
| 5589s | kind of let them go here all could have |
| 5591s | been a bit more work still to do when |
| 5592s | last year wants to pressure him down he |
| 5594s | has the transcendence in place so now he |
| 5595s | transitions that towards the card itself |
| 5597s | this gives pelican the ability to be a |
| 5599s | bit more aggressive but eventually that |
| 5600s | zed ultimate is going to be over and kai |
| 5603s | nails him there with that rail |
| 5605s | over the top comes picking here trying |
| 5606s | to buy a little bit more time here and |
| 5607s | he's mindful of the card he's pressuring |
| 5609s | kyber who's on the card well there is a |
| 5612s | player there for the outlaws but they're |
| 5613s | eventually felled as well |
| 5615s | and the rain a lot of low numbers on |
| 5617s | that top left there matt they had to |
| 5618s | spend big to get that point |
| 5621s | yeah i was gonna say uh |
| 5623s | not really too surprising there |
| 5624s | considering you come in and you're able |
| 5626s | to use every single ultimate to be able |
| 5628s | to take down but the outlaws though they |
| 5630s | invested pretty heavy into that fight as |
| 5632s | well uh now they come out the other side |
| 5634s | of it with just a pulse bomb so |
| 5636s | i will see now if atlanta rain can get |
| 5638s | this high ground control get some more |
| 5640s | payload progress uh |
| 5642s | i think it'll be i think you know |
| 5644s | obviously atlanta on offense here we're |
| 5646s | going to see where their push ends up |
| 5648s | i'm really kind of more fascinated about |
| 5650s | like what the houston outlaws offense |
| 5652s | looks like uh especially like you know |
| 5653s | are you going to run this winston are |
| 5655s | you going to play a sigma based setup a |
| 5657s | lot of questions as we go into that next |
| 5658s | half good chance of the contending with |
| 5660s | potential winston high ground defense as |
| 5662s | well so we'll see how they respond kai |
| 5664s | finds very early on here there's that |
| 5666s | early pick that we alluded to earlier on |
| 5668s | great sleep that does hawk in easily |
| 5670s | yeah pelicans just gonna scoop that one |
| 5671s | up and take it all the way to the banks |
| 5674s | kyle's still a threat though and pelican |
| 5676s | picks his head around the corner just |
| 5677s | long enough to have a steaming hole |
| 5679s | board through it the rain is still on |
| 5681s | the move here even without hawk he'll be |
| 5682s | back in a moment the outlaws need to |
| 5685s | make a decision |
| 5688s | uh well you just have piggy like jumping |
| 5689s | down contesting the cart then backing up |
| 5692s | you're not going to get a lot of |
| 5693s | progress here with just venom but uh now |
| 5695s | maybe a little bit more seriously in the |
| 5697s | fight he jumps out yeah he gets slipped |
| 5698s | right away special delivery for hawk |
| 5701s | he'll be topped up though as he tries to |
| 5702s | go after pelican maybe hoping the pulse |
| 5704s | would blow up on him but still him |
| 5706s | surviving |
| 5707s | is enough gonna be an anaboost on piggy |
| 5709s | though this could get dangerous and |
| 5710s | pelicans gonna bring kai down before he |
| 5711s | can let that rail go in the direction we |
| 5713s | liked transcendence here for ochi but |
| 5716s | doesn't feel great for the atlanta |
| 5718s | raiders they are extremely split hawk a |
| 5720s | long way away and they land around have |
| 5722s | to regroup without their support |
| 5723s | ultimates at all |
| 5725s | oh yes this is going to be tough it's uh |
| 5728s | the last show getting close to a |
| 5730s | transcendence you don't really have |
| 5731s | anything here for the outlaws uh maybe |
| 5734s | hawk with a primal able to kind of like |
| 5736s | uh you know displace lastro if they're |
| 5739s | gonna use transcendence don't get the |
| 5740s | best use out of it here |
| 5743s | now low 20 seconds |
| 5747s | 15 and counting kai finds pelican early |
| 5749s | on here good signs for the attackers but |
| 5751s | merritt has a pretty powerful spot up |
| 5753s | here |
| 5754s | can they pressure him away extreme |
| 5757s | long-range railgun action here but |
| 5758s | piggy's gone lower that's a double bite |
| 5760s | of great connection lastro's |
| 5761s | transcendence is for nothing the outlaws |
| 5763s | could have held there surely but that |
| 5765s | hernik the healing gets turned off |
| 5767s | and the rain hurdle towards that second |
| 5769s | checkpoint primal here this should deal |
| 5771s | with the zen |
| 5772s | master i can top himself up eventually |
| 5775s | venom will converge |
| 5776s | dealing with pigging out the primer |
| 5777s | right he's buying some time and there's |
| 5779s | an orb of discorder i'm here to make it |
| 5780s | harder to hang around |
| 5781s | beautiful pick from pelican oh gee goes |
| 5783s | down there's four up for the atlanta |
| 5784s | rain though where they have the numbers |
| 5786s | to pressure and i get that checkpoint |
| 5788s | man |
| 5788s | ah man in the clutch the atlanta reign |
| 5792s | comes up yet again where uh no it's the |
| 5796s | first pick there from kai is huge right |
| 5798s | you're able to get pelican uh who's |
| 5800s | obviously got to play pretty aggressive |
| 5801s | to get any value out of the tracer able |
| 5803s | to catch him off guard a little bit |
| 5805s | land a shot and that opens the door for |
| 5807s | them to take that second checkpoint not |
| 5809s | a lot of time here left though at the |
| 5811s | end i mean what you know a minute on the |
| 5813s | clock you're looking at two maybe three |
| 5815s | pushes here depending on how this goes |
| 5818s | yeah three's definitely uh |
| 5821s | gonna be a bit of a struggle still |
| 5823s | though good early progress as the |
| 5824s | outlaws weren't really able to slow |
| 5826s | atlanta rain down at that choke just |
| 5828s | based on how |
| 5830s | the last fight ended and where it ended |
| 5831s | specifically |
| 5833s | bob here for merit |
| 5835s | can't really interact too much until he |
| 5837s | goes to the high ground now with uh of |
| 5839s | course that coach gun great pressure |
| 5840s | here on kai hits him with a dynamite |
| 5842s | which is huge and then they have to |
| 5844s | finish the job |
| 5845s | trade though is |
| 5846s | iris is down for the outlaws they need |
| 5848s | that that nano boost here for piggy |
| 5851s | and i'm not sure if he sent that bobbin |
| 5852s | to contest but he runs like all the way |
| 5854s | through he actually goes through that |
| 5856s | like tunnel there and ends up hitting |
| 5858s | the wall so i'm not able to contest so |
| 5861s | you got a little bit more progress there |
| 5862s | from uh the atlanta reign not a ton but |
| 5865s | final fight territory transcendence |
| 5867s | available for atlanta it's got to work |
| 5869s | for roji so the outlaws had their plans |
| 5871s | ruined by by the grenade this cannot be |
| 5872s | the same pikachu with that but uh that |
| 5875s | mana booster is going to be put to sleep |
| 5877s | woken almost immediately but the discord |
| 5878s | orb is a problem he has to back away and |
| 5881s | just fight his time and that causes that |
| 5883s | nano to expire here we go though |
| 5885s | transcendence in play merit trying to |
| 5886s | pressure down he's hitting the biotic |
| 5887s | grenade |
| 5888s | but venom's not able to take advantage |
| 5890s | of that while that's in place still the |
| 5892s | atlanta reign muscled their way through |
| 5893s | heliken is down and hawke has a primal |
| 5895s | now lastro is not going to be touching |
| 5897s | the car so piggy is the only issue and |
| 5899s | he'll be knocked away he gets knocked |
| 5901s | away |
| 5902s | and that is a that is some nice play |
| 5904s | there on the winston from hawk right |
| 5906s | using the primal you know knocking last |
| 5908s | show out of the way just in case he had |
| 5910s | like a transcendence or something right |
| 5912s | and then able to obviously venom |
| 5914s | probably a little bit worried right as |
| 5916s | his tracer on the card uh gets back to |
| 5918s | it and then they just knock back uh |
| 5920s | piggy and get him out of the way |
| 5924s | yeah i mean with lastro was |
| 5925s | too far away from the cart to do |
| 5927s | anything i think clever from hawk to |
| 5928s | sort of identify that and all they |
| 5930s | needed was |
| 5932s | such a small amount of progress on the |
| 5933s | cart so it goes back |
| 5935s | and buys enough space to get the job |
| 5936s | done so all things considered matt |
| 5940s | pretty decent result here for the |
| 5941s | atlanta reign uh you know we saw houston |
| 5943s | they ended up switching to like a |
| 5944s | winston nero we saw that piggy is |
| 5946s | very capable uh i think for the most |
| 5948s | part in in making that pick work i'd |
| 5950s | also suggest that uh iris shutting hawk |
| 5952s | down with you know frequent sleep darts |
| 5955s | was a huge part of the outlaw's ability |
| 5957s | to buy time defensively hawke seemed to |
| 5959s | run into some trouble with that crowd |
| 5961s | control |
| 5963s | kai comes out on sojourn here so no ash |
| 5967s | for the atlanta rain on defense but |
| 5969s | obviously a much different setup right |
| 5970s | when you're going to play the winston |
| 5972s | sojourn uh with the dash and then the |
| 5974s | jump can be a little bit more aggressive |
| 5977s | than let's say an ash would be ash i |
| 5978s | think |
| 5979s | kind of combos better with sigma for a |
| 5981s | little bit more they uh |
| 5983s | they don't want to say like a bunker |
| 5984s | comp but one that's going to be a little |
| 5985s | bit more static so |
| 5986s | uh the out walls see pelican yeah maybe |
| 5989s | he stays on this echo i think he's |
| 5991s | talking about |
| 5992s | i think echo is pretty good against |
| 5994s | winston right there's some risky yes |
| 5995s | there's some risk here and obviously |
| 5996s | pelican having to cross this expanse so |
| 5998s | you notice he's very |
| 6000s | mindful of just how much altitude he's |
| 6001s | gaining and how vulnerable he would be |
| 6002s | to like a whale from kaya but he can he |
| 6004s | can sort of deny positioning on top of |
| 6006s | these buildings pretty effectively right |
| 6007s | there's nothing all can do about this |
| 6009s | poke damage that's gonna constantly come |
| 6011s | in so by the time piggy jumps up there |
| 6013s | hawks already half hp great way to deny |
| 6015s | like a high ground hold here no |
| 6017s | guarantee it works fully though |
| 6020s | and also if the if hawk gets uh a little |
| 6022s | bit low |
| 6024s | right you always have to have the threat |
| 6026s | of the pelican coming in on the echo |
| 6028s | with the focusing beam and just kind of |
| 6029s | burning him down right |
| 6031s | yeah it's a great point which means hawk |
| 6033s | effectively has half the hp that he |
| 6034s | thinks he has in situ what he had to |
| 6036s | play as if he did you know what i mean |
| 6038s | oh look he doesn't know what was coming |
| 6040s | from behind him but it's still very low |
| 6042s | and here we go that high ground that |
| 6044s | obnoxious high ground defense has |
| 6045s | basically been watered and pelican is in |
| 6047s | the back line getting rid of og first |
| 6049s | ultraviolet second the dps of the |
| 6052s | outlaws converge on their prey |
| 6054s | yeah and i wonder if you stay on like |
| 6056s | the sojourn if you stay on this |
| 6058s | composition here for the atlanta rain |
| 6061s | just kind of figuring out how worried |
| 6062s | you are about this echo pick |
| 6065s | it's uh it looks like at this at least |
| 6068s | for now atlanta going to stay you're |
| 6069s | going to have a nano boost here |
| 6071s | available for hawk |
| 6073s | so you'll be able to get another fight |
| 6075s | at this i'll try to open a ferrari |
| 6078s | yeah that's so big hawk though discord |
| 6081s | all but i'll see with the fighting |
| 6081s | grenade and to sleep down first this is |
| 6083s | what i'm saying iris just unleashes |
| 6084s | everything he's like khajiit with the |
| 6086s | words he just throws them all at hawk |
| 6088s | and shuts him out of the fight but |
| 6089s | kaiser with a headshot on piggy both |
| 6091s | tanks being down and again top stuff for |
| 6093s | the outlaws there is the dps of the rain |
| 6095s | come alive especially venom standing up |
| 6097s | in a key moment |
| 6098s | yeah and that's unfortunate uh for you |
| 6100s | know iris and the outlaws because that |
| 6102s | started off pretty good right when hawk |
| 6104s | gets the nano uh he's a little bit low |
| 6106s | and hit with a biotic grenade pretty |
| 6107s | much like a second before he gets the |
| 6109s | nano boost so doesn't get any of that |
| 6111s | health from it gets a little bit of the |
| 6113s | damage reduction right but not enough to |
| 6115s | keep him alive for long |
| 6117s | and out but the time |
| 6120s | finished the job he got it done he |
| 6121s | didn't have the focusing beam that now |
| 6123s | he's uh |
| 6124s | which is great obviously by grenade |
| 6125s | impactful in these situations but the |
| 6127s | barrier was a problem for him to get |
| 6128s | through i mean that is beautiful stuff |
| 6130s | and this is something that not every |
| 6132s | team can do |
| 6133s | i mean you i think you you might even |
| 6135s | need to bring nero in if if you're |
| 6137s | atlanta and you want to play this way |
| 6139s | and that's why you asked about the ash |
| 6141s | right is kai gonna play that it can it |
| 6143s | can be good at shutting down the echo |
| 6145s | there needs to be something leveraged to |
| 6147s | deal with pelican isn't he's a menace |
| 6149s | right now |
| 6150s | yes oh look at this he's going to ch |
| 6154s | that is |
| 6156s | [Laughter] |
| 6164s | [Music] |
| 6169s | he's like come on man |
| 6171s | like really |
| 6172s | oh man dad has to hit him or it hurts |
| 6174s | though doesn't he |
| 6176s | all right |
| 6178s | well uh pejoratives aside |
| 6181s | three minutes 18 on the clock there |
| 6183s | hawks gone uh gone digging by the looks |
| 6186s | of things here they're trying to drop a |
| 6187s | pulse off at the door but the wrong |
| 6188s | address apparently |
| 6190s | now he'll turn his eyes towards piggy |
| 6192s | while he can it's a transcendence from |
| 6193s | last row here to try and again inoculate |
| 6195s | the outlaws from the impact of hawks |
| 6197s | primal rage he'll head back upstairs now |
| 6200s | and they are trying to keep tabs on |
| 6201s | pelican if they can |
| 6203s | yeah hawk does drag a few players back |
| 6206s | right so both supports merit there and |
| 6208s | then piggy had to come back now piggy |
| 6210s | we're gonna get to see his uh primal |
| 6212s | rage and he's he's out he's getting him |
| 6214s | getting flamboyed on the high ground man |
| 6216s | he lost 500 hp in a matter of seconds oh |
| 6220s | oh yeah go on kai put it in chat again |
| 6222s | mate |
| 6223s | merritt huge pick there he gets |
| 6225s | snattered okay see i like to use the |
| 6227s | ultimate no he doesn't need it |
| 6228s | apparently hawk goes down that |
| 6229s | transcendence from og's looking |
| 6231s | extremely sad you may have entered the |
| 6233s | iris sir but the rest of your team is |
| 6235s | stranded outside of it |
| 6238s | the payload is still moving though |
| 6239s | somebody is on the payload here for the |
| 6241s | outlaws |
| 6242s | as |
| 6243s | it's going to be piggy so piggy was |
| 6245s | actually still here with pelican they |
| 6246s | gotta get out yeah i was gonna say you |
| 6248s | hang around here for a little bit longer |
| 6249s | you're gonna end up uh |
| 6251s | you know dead is |
| 6253s | will be the outlaws probably trying to |
| 6255s | get some high ground here uh with merits |
| 6257s | overclock they don't exactly have to |
| 6259s | push like pretty standard you see right |
| 6260s | here coming around this outside oh |
| 6262s | that's beautiful oh thanks right it look |
| 6264s | like he hit like the echo's wing there |
| 6268s | yeah pelican |
| 6269s | obviously not really airborne there so |
| 6271s | it's a valuable opportunity for tracer |
| 6273s | to get a pulse bomb stick and now that |
| 6275s | outlaws time makes been cut in half |
| 6277s | since they got that second checkpoint |
| 6279s | still a one fight sort of situation here |
| 6281s | for able to win it but we've had some |
| 6282s | real scrappy engagements man kind of |
| 6284s | like early five versus five |
| 6288s | and uh you know for atlanta you don't |
| 6289s | really have anything here to work with |
| 6291s | right you're gonna have a duplicate in |
| 6292s | the overclock on the other side so |
| 6293s | you're just trying to find maybe a |
| 6294s | support a little bit further off on |
| 6296s | their own at this time oh yes the |
| 6298s | intellectual choice once again from |
| 6300s | pelican |
| 6301s | extra healing on board for now for the |
| 6303s | houston outlaws |
| 6304s | you just have to wait this out uh if |
| 6306s | you're atlanta you're going to get the |
| 6307s | nano now it's probably going to go on |
| 6309s | the hawk yeah |
| 6310s | what can he do from here iris has that |
| 6312s | orb of harmony on him but that's it |
| 6313s | that's all the healing he can get he |
| 6314s | didn't have a body grenade available |
| 6316s | pelican's still able to trade and get |
| 6317s | rid of venom of all people and there it |
| 6319s | is that's how scary it is it's winston |
| 6321s | to deal with echo as soon as hawk goes |
| 6323s | slightly low pelican just lazes the limb |
| 6326s | off |
| 6327s | yeah and i think if you would have had |
| 6329s | ultraviolet alive it would have been a |
| 6330s | little bit more of an interesting fight |
| 6332s | there uh because hawk was getting like |
| 6334s | he was three percent towards primal rage |
| 6337s | i know you have the ana alive there a |
| 6338s | little bit more healing output than just |
| 6340s | the zen solo uh he might be able to get |
| 6343s | that and keep that fight going |
| 6346s | transcendence here for the outlaws so |
| 6347s | the rain need to be wary |
| 6350s | if they're tracking this they'll know |
| 6351s | that any dive would be extra dangerous |
| 6355s | helicopter a bit of pressure here that |
| 6356s | discord stuck to him he's able to shrug |
| 6358s | that off though and he wants to get pork |
| 6359s | out of the way he wants to guarantee the |
| 6361s | high ground control but |
| 6362s | so far not so great on that plan |
| 6367s | he can be pretty aggressive oh yeah that |
| 6370s | head comes in huge |
| 6372s | it's uh you can be pretty aggressive on |
| 6373s | the echo because you have the the |
| 6375s | ability to just fly out of the way there |
| 6378s | not using it to kind of access that high |
| 6380s | ground that part of the map so be able |
| 6383s | to use this an escape tool where |
| 6385s | yellow's roll in here this last part of |
| 6386s | the map yeah we're looking at extra |
| 6388s | innings at this rate look at those our |
| 6389s | ultimates the outlaws have been able to |
| 6391s | bank here venom can he break the |
| 6392s | deadlock with a big pulse bomb is the |
| 6394s | question but piggy's gone with the |
| 6395s | primal so venom cleverly is stalling on |
| 6397s | his own right now he knows that the rest |
| 6398s | of his team have been waylaid by the |
| 6400s | frenzied scientists so he stands his |
| 6402s | ground for now iris pulse no connection |
| 6404s | there he should be able to step away |
| 6405s | from it so he does merit punishes |
| 6407s | enemies he tries to get away in a cringe |
| 6409s | from venom there as merritt hits the |
| 6411s | mark once more the cart tantalizingly |
| 6414s | close here but outlaws have lost pelican |
| 6416s | can they get it done without give they |
| 6418s | have a nano boost here still america pop |
| 6420s | off but it's kaia's moment right now to |
| 6422s | go for the overclock |
| 6424s | yeah there's gonna be a nano boost |
| 6425s | coming in on to piggy he gets actually |
| 6427s | put to sleep hawk comes out on diva here |
| 6429s | for a little bit of a stall here at the |
| 6431s | end |
| 6431s | merrick can't find anything here at that |
| 6433s | moment in time then gonna find a venom |
| 6435s | on this floor big biotic grenade there |
| 6438s | huge one from ultraviolet isn't it |
| 6439s | enough to break the deadlock here |
| 6441s | a sleeping target i like this hawk so |
| 6443s | defensively oriented on this particular |
| 6445s | pick right now and pelican tried to to |
| 6447s | imitate him unfortunately it was a a |
| 6449s | cheap approximation he tries to get a |
| 6452s | remake on hawk as well the audacity of |
| 6454s | it but the rain hold this is getting |
| 6456s | scary for houston |
| 6457s | well we talk about how good diva is in |
| 6459s | like these one-on-one scenarios and oh |
| 6461s | you see why flies right in with the |
| 6463s | missiles discord or be able to try and |
| 6465s | they're gonna try and finish off the |
| 6466s | earth as well that's gonna be both |
| 6467s | supports down for houston |
| 6470s | you a man that can do everything hawk |
| 6472s | with another switch to one of his old |
| 6475s | i guess he's old flames see if the diva |
| 6477s | comes out and he's able to control space |
| 6479s | play defensive and shut piggy down |
| 6482s | that one's gonna be frustrating for the |
| 6484s | outlaws that's them after they you know |
| 6485s | sub piggy in for they feel confident |
| 6487s | after switching to a winston mirror |
| 6489s | but man pelican geez pelican almost gets |
| 6492s | them there man incredible echo play but |
| 6494s | it's not enough |
| 6496s | yeah i mean that's the that's the |
| 6498s | pelican of last year right on the echo |
| 6500s | play but man the switch to the diva at |
| 6502s | the end with getting the nano and just |
| 6504s | being able to really just brawl out with |
| 6506s | targets on the payload paid off for the |
| 6508s | atlanta reign now we're starting to get |
| 6510s | to the business end of this series the |
| 6512s | houston outlaws need to have an emphatic |
| 6514s | response on the other side of the break |
| 6515s | don't go anywhere because map number |
| 6517s | four is sure to be a doozy |
| 6549s | do |
| 6552s | [Music] |
| 6607s | [Music] |
| 6650s | [Music] |
| 6658s | do |
| 6662s | [Music] |
| 6667s | [Music] |
| 6673s | [Music] |
| 6702s | [Music] |
| 6708s | [Music] |
| 6717s | [Music] |
| 6770s | i can read it in korean you know |
| 6776s | hey not funny |
| 6783s | [Music] |
| 6792s | who's the biggest prankster on the team |
| 6794s | i'd say nero |
| 6796s | hulk and nero it's definitely it's |
| 6798s | definitely me or hawk i'd have to go to |
| 6800s | pelican this guy's just always up to |
| 6802s | something |
| 6804s | 100 felican |
| 6806s | maybe |
| 6807s | piggy and me |
| 6817s | always doing something to mess with |
| 6818s | people feel like they like making people |
| 6821s | mad sometimes me or hawk just trolls the |
| 6823s | team like everyone on the team no one's |
| 6824s | safe |
| 6833s | probably how i don't i guess it would be |
| 6835s | me i like pulling everyone's leg a |
| 6836s | little bit he'll go up and change |
| 6838s | someone's wallpaper or something while |
| 6840s | they're not looking |
| 6841s | or if someone's mad just making them |
| 6843s | more mad just for their own |
| 6845s | entertainment it's just something that |
| 6846s | we do and we find it funny |
| 6849s | who has the best fashion in the league |
| 6851s | to be honest i don't know how any of the |
| 6853s | other players dress so i'm just going to |
| 6854s | assume it's me |
| 6855s | hydron i think |
| 6861s | oh |
| 6889s | i don't think our team got dripped we |
| 6891s | we're not drift |
| 6899s | in the league i think |
| 6901s | shu has the best fashion and i think on |
| 6903s | our team it's probably kai and kevster |
| 6905s | actually yeah |
| 6908s | what teammate always likes your back no |
| 6910s | matter what barley my judd |
| 6912s | it's my saudi brother i think they all |
| 6914s | have my back |
| 6916s | you know we trust each other a lot and |
| 6918s | you know we're a team or a unit and i |
| 6920s | don't think there's any like barriers |
| 6921s | between us |
| 6928s | i'd say everyone on the team we're all |
| 6930s | friends we help each other through |
| 6931s | everything probably pelican maybe |
| 6934s | dante |
| 6938s | okay |
| 6945s | [Music] |
| 6950s | so it comes down to this two to one in |
| 6953s | the series the atlanta reign lead the |
| 6956s | houston outlaws a frustrating map for |
| 6958s | houston they select dorado when they |
| 6960s | cannot get across the line it's |
| 6962s | it's close it looked like the outlaws |
| 6964s | would even finish with some time but in |
| 6966s | the last minute or so the wheels fell |
| 6968s | off the cart |
| 6970s | and now they're gonna have to try and |
| 6971s | find a way to stay in this series on an |
| 6973s | iconic map for this team matthew coliseo |
| 6975s | has had some some huge moments uh for |
| 6977s | the houston outlaws in the past |
| 6980s | yeah uh we'll see dante come back in for |
| 6983s | piggy here uh on this map selection uh |
| 6986s | for the houston outlaws so |
| 6988s | gonna go back to running some of these |
| 6990s | doomfist based compositions man the last |
| 6992s | two maps have really been close even |
| 6994s | think back to king's row uh |
| 6997s | dante almost able to get back to the |
| 6999s | cart uh on defense like right when |
| 7001s | atlanta wanted they had a transcendence |
| 7003s | rolling not able to do so some big plays |
| 7006s | from the atlanta rain late here on |
| 7008s | dorado make this a game point scenario |
| 7010s | for them |
| 7011s | great point it's been like the last |
| 7013s | minute of each map where it's really |
| 7015s | been decided and it's been atlanta ryan |
| 7017s | finding an extra reserve of energy in |
| 7018s | those moments to to give their team |
| 7021s | enough to make the difference |
| 7023s | they're just a team that seems to be |
| 7024s | coming up clutch pretty consistently |
| 7026s | right like whenever they need a play to |
| 7027s | happen |
| 7028s | uh they're able to get it and work it |
| 7030s | out in their favor in some way uh no |
| 7034s | can you win all of the time that way |
| 7038s | probably not you're gonna see some kind |
| 7039s | of like results or don't want to win all |
| 7041s | the |
| 7043s | uh i time no not really but |
| 7046s | uh you know you need some of that like |
| 7049s | big game play making where you know |
| 7052s | things don't look as good all right well |
| 7053s | here goes like no ultraviolet hits a |
| 7056s | massive biotic grenade right turns a |
| 7057s | tide in a fighter here comes you know |
| 7059s | hawk and he's able to switch over to the |
| 7061s | diva and come up clutch right uh it just |
| 7064s | seems like they constantly come up with |
| 7065s | that |
| 7066s | shout out to the |
| 7067s | obviously uh you know the doom switch |
| 7069s | from hawk to sort of knock pelican away |
| 7071s | to sort of make it not a c9 and actually |
| 7073s | legitimate hold your shout out to the |
| 7074s | nerd on twitter got mad about that |
| 7076s | but uh that was incredible switch as |
| 7078s | well so the rain in a pinch always |
| 7080s | seemed to have the right answer what on |
| 7082s | earth is this approach |
| 7085s | yeah so uh atlanta they'll actually go |
| 7088s | with a doomfist of their own so they're |
| 7090s | gonna play the doomfist with the lucio |
| 7092s | and they want to go fast oh that's they |
| 7094s | want to up the tempo even more |
| 7096s | two for one trade they'll take those |
| 7097s | pelican also looking awful haggard there |
| 7100s | merritt able to pick og out of the mix |
| 7101s | here this one is going to go to the wire |
| 7103s | in this fight but venom and kai are |
| 7105s | loose ends here late and all of the |
| 7107s | atlanta right taking an extremely |
| 7109s | roundabout literally figurally approach |
| 7111s | to winning that first fight |
| 7119s | uh the last time we did see the atlanta |
| 7121s | rain play against like the doomfist set |
| 7123s | up i thought dante and code did a really |
| 7125s | nice job i think specifically on oasis |
| 7127s | right getting uh into the back line and |
| 7129s | making a trouble for og who's playing |
| 7131s | the zen at that time so the lucio's a |
| 7132s | little bit i know better in terms of |
| 7134s | defensive setup too right uh no the |
| 7136s | boobs a little bit harder to hit |
| 7138s | obviously than is in you still get a uh |
| 7140s | you know support alt alt-right to keep |
| 7142s | teammates alive again you lose hawk here |
| 7145s | but kai with another shot on the belly |
| 7146s | again israel got headshots on genji's |
| 7149s | they're unlikely even them in the best |
| 7151s | of situations but ty is stringing them |
| 7153s | together like they're nothing |
| 7154s | like the macaroni necklace |
| 7157s | that is not what you want to see if |
| 7158s | you're the houston it was because when |
| 7160s | kai starts to heat up and like get going |
| 7162s | like |
| 7163s | there is a there is nothing like |
| 7164s | watching him play the hitscan heroes |
| 7166s | when he is starting to click like that |
| 7168s | so a few times in a row he's come out |
| 7170s | hit some big shots and that keeps |
| 7172s | continuing you can see you see this go |
| 7174s | pretty far for the atlanta raid |
| 7176s | yeah that's when it starts to get a |
| 7178s | little breathtaking |
| 7181s | right now atlanta be satisfied with that |
| 7183s | early lead they've been able to |
| 7184s | to dig out here they're also playing |
| 7187s | sort of along the outside of this area |
| 7189s | at the moment not wanting to expose |
| 7191s | themselves to too much of this poke |
| 7192s | damage |
| 7193s | if you think they can be happy |
| 7196s | they don't want to play where their |
| 7197s | barrier is because of that high ground |
| 7200s | uh |
| 7202s | just deletes venom as he takes it a |
| 7204s | little bit |
| 7206s | sorry i think i'm done to get knocked |
| 7208s | down twice in quick succession once |
| 7210s | asleep and once a punch and still matt |
| 7212s | the outlaws are able to come out on top |
| 7214s | merit huge fight from him |
| 7217s | get the first kill on to venom uh and |
| 7220s | then they're just putting down |
| 7222s | enough damage on the hawk to finish him |
| 7223s | off losing some charge here on the uh |
| 7225s | sojourn it's gonna go back to zero but |
| 7228s | it's still a decent amount though for |
| 7230s | the outlaws to make up it doesn't seem |
| 7231s | like a lot of like meter push from the |
| 7233s | atlanta right at the start but they've |
| 7235s | gotten it like a little bit around the |
| 7237s | corner where |
| 7238s | you know you're gonna have to fight this |
| 7239s | high ground here if you're houston |
| 7241s | pushing forward |
| 7243s | or happy with that that's his staging |
| 7245s | grounds he tries to drop into a virus |
| 7246s | but it's fighting grenade sleep dad all |
| 7248s | of it hitting him |
| 7249s | crucial timing from og finds the sound |
| 7251s | barrier but still the owl is able to |
| 7253s | find a kill off dante's meteor strike |
| 7255s | and then pelicans there for the |
| 7256s | follow-up beautiful stick it's so clean |
| 7259s | from the houston outlaws |
| 7261s | they will be run away |
| 7263s | at this rate looking to get into the |
| 7265s | lead |
| 7266s | again look they had to take that fight |
| 7268s | in the disadvantageous position but they |
| 7270s | turn it around |
| 7272s | yeah and they'll take the lead now in |
| 7273s | terms of push as og will go over to the |
| 7276s | zen feel like you maybe need a little |
| 7278s | bit more damage this time you capitalize |
| 7279s | on a sleep so |
| 7281s | houston going to have to hightail it out |
| 7282s | of there without dante |
| 7284s | that's where the outlaws push ends but |
| 7287s | they've got to be happy enough with |
| 7288s | getting a lead there especially from |
| 7289s | winning a fight from the low ground |
| 7292s | it's scary |
| 7294s | that's true it is close |
| 7297s | nicely done pelican lands that one on |
| 7299s | kyle |
| 7300s | sometimes he hits a little bit different |
| 7301s | when you're playing in the same room huh |
| 7305s | then am i going to get much done in the |
| 7306s | back line oh that's dirty iris chases |
| 7309s | him with |
| 7312s | yes it doesn't look like you're going to |
| 7313s | be able to find anything here if you're |
| 7315s | atlanta you're just trying to back up as |
| 7317s | using the power block to friend |
| 7319s | escort og is actually find a player off |
| 7321s | to the side i believe that was last row |
| 7323s | so you're going to be able to get a pick |
| 7324s | off of this |
| 7326s | by getting some value there out of that |
| 7328s | railgun iris another big sleep on hawk |
| 7330s | but can he handle this kind of here the |
| 7332s | answer is no atlanta |
| 7335s | seeing a little bit of extra ground in |
| 7336s | that fight but it's time now to get back |
| 7338s | to neutral |
| 7339s | there have been a few times where |
| 7341s | atlanta has been able to catch like last |
| 7343s | row off kind of like on his own right |
| 7345s | we've seen hit uh no remember king's row |
| 7346s | right he was going on that like |
| 7348s | trying to make a play from behind didn't |
| 7350s | work out they've caught him a few times |
| 7352s | i know in an off angle right there |
| 7353s | they're able to capitalize on it and it |
| 7355s | kind of turns the tide there's a lot of |
| 7357s | volatility that's predicated on these |
| 7359s | sojourn picks |
| 7361s | i'm going to see these early head shots |
| 7362s | from merida from kai and it really paves |
| 7364s | the way for a fight win for your team if |
| 7365s | you can get one oh gee |
| 7367s | pressured pelican trying to chase this |
| 7369s | ultraviolet he ends up coming out with |
| 7370s | because origin was flattened by dante |
| 7372s | kai finds another consistent whale |
| 7374s | connection but the outlaws have some |
| 7376s | momentum there look at the leverage now |
| 7378s | they're still behind the rain |
| 7381s | houston hoping to put this to a stop |
| 7382s | this is a very defensive play the wall |
| 7384s | takes too much damage has to get out |
| 7386s | hell's pack but no healers to top him up |
| 7388s | so this is a little scary for atlanta |
| 7391s | yes venom is just trying to stay here to |
| 7393s | prevent the bot from going so far back |
| 7395s | right so we're a bit more than halfway |
| 7398s | through this game |
| 7400s | both support also be online for the |
| 7401s | atlanta rain hawk you know he was doing |
| 7403s | some big damage in that last fight you |
| 7405s | give him the nano boost here and same |
| 7406s | type of part of the map maybe he's able |
| 7408s | to make a big play |
| 7410s | another pulse from pelican would be |
| 7412s | just what the octa doctor would never |
| 7414s | order |
| 7414s | because he's trying to preserve lives |
| 7416s | but |
| 7417s | could be on the cards here is this nano |
| 7419s | for oh okay he gets a hit there but |
| 7421s | hawk's able to finish the draw on |
| 7422s | pelican all right so the atlanta reigns |
| 7424s | by the way come into this fight with |
| 7425s | what one ultimate one and they're able |
| 7427s | to push up here this is huge |
| 7429s | transcendence comes online for og and |
| 7430s | dante falls for the outlaws they've got |
| 7432s | to be furious they have six ultimates |
| 7435s | here matt |
| 7436s | and a few kills towards the end here is |
| 7438s | gonna be huge for the atlanta reign and |
| 7440s | that's why venom you know stalling that |
| 7441s | bot there was so important because if |
| 7444s | the yellows were able to get it back to |
| 7445s | 50 like yard line to the map |
| 7448s | the atlanta reign are not gonna be able |
| 7449s | to take the lead off of this fight but |
| 7450s | they are now right those are meters not |
| 7452s | your ridiculous freedom units |
| 7455s | 60 meters now for the atlanta reign |
| 7457s | and that puts them you make a great |
| 7458s | point right like keeping that bot at |
| 7459s | neutral at worst is what allows the rain |
| 7462s | to get into the lead here now can they |
| 7464s | capitalize can they follow up venom |
| 7466s | dueling on the barrier for now possible |
| 7468s | throwing down but looks like vulture |
| 7470s | violence able to get away from it or |
| 7471s | currently sleeping here's a |
| 7472s | transcendence now for the houston |
| 7474s | outlaws ultraviolet blowing up there and |
| 7477s | that bot's already been moving this |
| 7478s | whole time by the way |
| 7481s | yeah just a little bit further uh now |
| 7484s | for the atlanta rain they don't get to |
| 7486s | that uh no infamous butt scratch right |
| 7489s | so |
| 7489s | houston outlaws gonna try and |
| 7492s | get there here first is hawk back off |
| 7494s | spawn probably going to want to try and |
| 7496s | contest this as soon as possible do not |
| 7498s | want to give up the lead here |
| 7500s | both these teams fighting for |
| 7502s | incremental leads |
| 7504s | back and forth |
| 7506s | no pulse connection this time from |
| 7507s | pelican although dante looks to go |
| 7508s | deeper your wrist is taken down low the |
| 7510s | atlanta right now but a stave off |
| 7512s | for houston this is devastating they're |
| 7514s | in a position to really start to |
| 7515s | pressure and get an advantage with their |
| 7517s | attack |
| 7518s | it just collapses on itself |
| 7521s | yeah now atlanta will get going the |
| 7522s | other way and this is a scary moment |
| 7524s | here for the houston outlaws you're |
| 7526s | going to be coming up on this defense |
| 7528s | right before you know the infamous about |
| 7530s | scratch that first checkpoint unlocked |
| 7535s | you're going to have a nano boost |
| 7537s | available here and an overclock you lose |
| 7540s | this fight uh no this is going to get a |
| 7542s | significant amount of progress for the |
| 7544s | atlanta reigns that you may not be able |
| 7545s | to come back from |
| 7547s | dante and kai just fight to pick on |
| 7548s | aries this is all going wrong for |
| 7550s | houston the lead for atlanta is going to |
| 7552s | continue to increase and now we're under |
| 7554s | the two-minute mark and we've hit the uh |
| 7556s | uh we've hit the butt scratch because |
| 7558s | that's huge |
| 7559s | well and you can't fight here either |
| 7561s | right like if you could fight here for |
| 7563s | the houston outlaws stop it there we've |
| 7565s | seen games end in that type of capacity |
| 7567s | uh you're not able to kind of play |
| 7569s | defense here directly on that checkpoint |
| 7571s | so you're gonna get a forward spawn from |
| 7573s | hawk he'll be back a little bit sooner |
| 7575s | uh then oh |
| 7577s | normal |
| 7578s | jittering in his chair |
| 7581s | the barrier is still moving though like |
| 7583s | now we open it alone and yeah |
| 7585s | i feel like atlanta might have just |
| 7587s | gotten a free |
| 7588s | five to ten nieces there even in a |
| 7590s | losing scenario |
| 7593s | and because of the way you know they |
| 7594s | kind of win that fight they're in a spot |
| 7596s | where they get past that checkpoint uh |
| 7598s | that this is this is huge for houston |
| 7600s | this is the push all five ultimates |
| 7602s | obviously if you're the elena reign |
| 7604s | there's a good chance you have an idea |
| 7606s | that they have all these ultimates you |
| 7607s | want to take a fight early which is |
| 7609s | exactly what they're doing you want to |
| 7610s | take this fight early get some of these |
| 7611s | ultimates out and then play for a last |
| 7613s | second fight because the the bots are |
| 7615s | not going to move fast for the outlaws |
| 7616s | right because it has to stop at that |
| 7618s | checkpoint |
| 7619s | pelican tries to fly inside kai but it's |
| 7621s | him |
| 7622s | that falls foul of hawk |
| 7624s | pelican drop pork eventually going to go |
| 7626s | down here saw a 4v4 |
| 7628s | great pulse down dante as soon as he |
| 7630s | comes back down to earth reality hits |
| 7632s | hard |
| 7633s | and the atlanta rain are not going to |
| 7635s | allow houston to control it so now he |
| 7636s | should have the full scale retreat they |
| 7638s | have to group up for one interrupted |
| 7639s | push to win this it's all on the line |
| 7641s | here houston this has to be the push |
| 7645s | and they have |
| 7647s | four of the ultimates available |
| 7649s | atlanta does not want to push it much |
| 7651s | further than this right they don't want |
| 7652s | to run into the high ground because |
| 7654s | that's a fight they most likely lose |
| 7656s | and houston doesn't have to use anything |
| 7657s | for it is uh houston will have to get |
| 7660s | touch on the bot keep it moving |
| 7664s | said atlanta trying to build up to malt |
| 7665s | here |
| 7666s | hopes on the line here mid-season |
| 7668s | madness |
| 7670s | is in the air for the outlaws now it has |
| 7672s | to be an uninterrupted push if they want |
| 7674s | to stay alive and it's tournament that's |
| 7676s | a good start og falls belly good |
| 7678s | pressure and dante goes overhead both |
| 7680s | backliners to the atlanta reign are down |
| 7682s | so that's the first tick in the box for |
| 7684s | the outlaws but there's many more that |
| 7686s | must be satisfied |
| 7687s | uh and you only had to use the nanoboost |
| 7689s | there for the houston outlaw so that is |
| 7691s | massive only use the nano |
| 7694s | the bot is gonna hit the barrier here |
| 7696s | shortly uh and then you see at the top |
| 7698s | of the screen it's gonna stop now at |
| 7700s | that checkpoint it's gonna have to |
| 7701s | unlock that this is where maybe atlanta |
| 7703s | can make a play right if you can get kai |
| 7705s | up on that bridge with the overclock |
| 7707s | shooting down |
| 7709s | maybe that's where you can get a hold |
| 7710s | here get in the bus crash with a biotic |
| 7712s | grenade yep he backs away looking |
| 7714s | playing inside of his own disruptive |
| 7715s | shot |
| 7722s | outlaws looking to make magic again but |
| 7724s | kai ain't about that life last through |
| 7727s | the last one standing in overtime and |
| 7729s | two extended middle fingers won't be |
| 7730s | enough to keep the outlaws alive they're |
| 7732s | going home as the rain continue their |
| 7735s | lower bracket run |
| 7738s | so man what a play from kai comes around |
| 7741s | the corner with the overclock i was |
| 7743s | mentioning you can come from the high |
| 7744s | ground use that ability slides down |
| 7747s | connects with a few shots |
| 7750s | and that kind of seals the deal there |
| 7752s | for the atlanta reign as they stay alive |
| 7755s | in the tournament |
| 7756s | i mean more than just stay alive we talk |
| 7758s | about survival and that is on the line |
| 7760s | here but the atlanta right now starting |
| 7761s | to flourish a victory against the seoul |
| 7764s | dynasty and went all the way this time |
| 7766s | they handily dispatched the houston |
| 7768s | outlaws and let's not forget multiple |
| 7771s | houston picks are won by the atlanta |
| 7773s | reign and they're showing us that maybe |
| 7775s | maybe they're onto something hawk has |
| 7777s | played so many different tanks across |
| 7779s | this series and many times they've been |
| 7781s | able to exploit the outlaws lack of |
| 7783s | flexibility in that way the back line |
| 7786s | for the atlanta raid is showing that |
| 7788s | sort of you know incredible power they |
| 7790s | had in the first few weeks of this |
| 7792s | season returning to that height sort of |
| 7794s | og and ultraviolet phase this is |
| 7796s | incredible stuff in the atlantic rain |
| 7797s | and i got a feeling there well they're |
| 7799s | far from done |
| 7801s | yeah yeah i think that commitment to |
| 7802s | hawk and really giving him the time to |
| 7804s | play all these other tanks it's a huge |
| 7806s | difference for the atlanta reign not |
| 7809s | just uh overall in the season but in |
| 7811s | this series right you kind of see what |
| 7812s | houston has to do in terms of swapping |
| 7814s | out tanks trying to get the exact kind |
| 7816s | of composition they want uh and |
| 7818s | rightfully so because dante is so good |
| 7819s | on the doomfist and then piggy's so good |
| 7821s | on the sigma but man |
| 7823s | hawk was the player of the match today |
| 7826s | for all the things we just talked about |
| 7827s | being able to play the sigma play the |
| 7829s | winston the doomfist right uh diva right |
| 7832s | we saw so many different tanks from him |
| 7834s | today and he was a huge difference maker |
| 7836s | i mean i feel like on king's row there's |
| 7837s | almost a sense of inevitable |
| 7839s | inevitability whatever it was guaranteed |
| 7842s | that the atlanta reign were probably |
| 7843s | going to win that because of how they're |
| 7845s | able to exploit uh you know the opponent |
| 7847s | tank like hawks ever played whatever he |
| 7849s | likes you know the sigma looked huge |
| 7850s | even on attack he plays it and they |
| 7852s | sequentially take this space obviously |
| 7854s | returning to the doofus dog colosseum a |
| 7857s | great series incredible series here from |
| 7859s | hawk and we're continuing to understand |
| 7862s | now why it's so important for that one |
| 7864s | tank player to have so many options |
| 7867s | yeah it is |
| 7868s | it's something that i think a lot of |
| 7870s | teams are going to look at how atlanta |
| 7871s | handled this i know pretty early here in |
| 7873s | our season and i imagine they're going |
| 7876s | to try and copy some of this format |
| 7878s | right there's a nice break i know after |
| 7880s | this before we start our third |
| 7882s | tournament of the year uh where i think |
| 7884s | a lot of teams gonna look at their |
| 7885s | roster and say like is there one tank we |
| 7887s | can focus on who can play a lot of these |
| 7888s | different things because i know junker |
| 7891s | queen ray coming in like there's a lot |
| 7892s | of tanks now that they're going to be |
| 7893s | able to utilize and you want to utilize |
| 7896s | as many as possible map to out yeah |
| 7898s | fantastic result here for the rain the |
| 7899s | outlaws of course a bit to work on |
| 7901s | they're definitely sitting well within |
| 7903s | the pack but they need to break through |
| 7905s | later on in the year so they'll have a |
| 7906s | break now as matt mentioned we're gonna |
| 7908s | have one too i'm gonna learn how to say |
| 7910s | words while we go to the desk and help |
| 7911s | him wrap this one up of course we'll |
| 7912s | come back with our next very spicy badge |
| 7915s | after the break |
| 7920s | yeah i'm coming |
| 7921s | soon |

| 8213s | of all tanks jack of all tanks you just |
| 8216s | yeah jack of all tanks so i mean it's |
| 8218s | been going around the western players |
| 8219s | people calling everyone jokes but |
| 8221s | i guess today i had a flex i had to flex |
| 8223s | around the tank roll and you know jack |
| 8225s | of all tanks today is there is there a |
| 8226s | limit on like how many uh tank heroes |
| 8229s | you have to use in order to acquire that |
| 8231s | term uh i think it's mainly just having |
| 8234s | one tank like always in the lineup like |
| 8236s | if you're flexing around tanks then uh |
| 8238s | you're not a joke apparently but you are |
| 8240s | definitely a joke i guess i guess so you |
| 8242s | are a joke yes okay |
| 8244s | all right yeah i'm talking to the jolt |
| 8246s | of atlanta rain everybody oh yeah let's |
| 8249s | talk about this uh this match a little |
| 8250s | bit i mean i think you guys atlanta rain |
| 8252s | were very dominant this whole match but |
| 8254s | other than the first map oasis so what |
| 8256s | were some of the problems that you guys |
| 8258s | had in the first map and how are you |
| 8259s | able to turn things around at the end um |
| 8262s | the first map uh pelican was just taking |
| 8265s | a lot of space on genji just hit orb and |
| 8267s | he just like pretty much he was pretty |
| 8269s | much playing like a second tank just |
| 8270s | walking up and we just didn't poke them |
| 8271s | out that well but on the second third |
| 8273s | map we were able to abuse their uh their |
| 8276s | tank |
| 8277s | player that was in and um |
| 8279s | able to pretty much |
| 8281s | uh |
| 8282s | just worry about that he would have to |
| 8283s | go to echo and then we didn't worry |
| 8284s | about the echo so it's complicated but |
| 8286s | yeah sorry every time every time you |
| 8288s | talk about tank players now i just think |
| 8290s | about that joe turman |
| 8292s | sorry guys all right i mean we were |
| 8293s | talking a little bit about houston you |
| 8294s | were talking a little bit about houston |
| 8296s | uh i mean so my second question is |
| 8297s | actually about houston uh i mean |
| 8300s | how were the houston outlaws today in |
| 8302s | your perspective were they sort of |
| 8303s | better than uh your expectation um well |
| 8306s | last time we played them there was a |
| 8308s | complete tragedy what happened on uh in |
| 8310s | the well so um |
| 8313s | yeah yeah |
| 8314s | so uh |
| 8316s | the comics they're slow team they like |
| 8317s | to play very slow and um |
| 8320s | it's it's a different environment here |
| 8322s | everyone's face to face and uh it's also |
| 8324s | tournament so you get to pick your map |
| 8326s | and um |
| 8328s | yeah just a different environment if you |
| 8329s | get to pick your map and we just want |
| 8330s | our map so yeah yeah and you guys did a |
| 8333s | great job and last but not least uh |
| 8335s | apparently |
| 8336s | your next match is going to be up |
| 8337s | against either san francisco shock or |
| 8338s | the shanghai dragons the loser of that |
| 8340s | match will be going up against the |
| 8341s | atlanta reign uh who would you want to |
| 8343s | see in your as a next opponent um |
| 8347s | would i want to see i'd rather see shock |
| 8348s | but i |
| 8349s | think we might see shanghai because i'm |
| 8352s | not sure yet though we'll see how it |
| 8353s | goes but uh |
| 8355s | i think we might see shanghai why why do |
| 8358s | you want to go up against shock i mean |
| 8360s | we were pretty much up against them in |
| 8362s | tournaments and uh you know happened |
| 8364s | last year in grand finals so and now but |
| 8366s | it's a different game so anything that |
| 8367s | happened a little bit a little bit of |
| 8369s | revenge that little revenge on both ends |
| 8372s | all right well hawk that is it for the |
| 8373s | interview thank you so much uh for your |
| 8374s | time and again big congratulations on |
| 8376s | the win with that being said let's go |
| 8378s | back to the desk away take away take it |
| 8380s | away |
| 8384s | thank you so much danny and hawk the |
| 8386s | joke is this a term that this is a new |
| 8388s | one this is that |
| 8389s | yeah it's a new one coming around we're |
| 8391s | making history here exactly yeah right |
| 8393s | you called me the boat back in my day |
| 8395s | what's that i don't know i haven't |
| 8396s | figured out yet |
| 8398s | someone else may have figured out |
| 8399s | everyone guess what that could possibly |
| 8401s | be in the chat because i don't know what |
| 8403s | it is so hopefully the chat is a little |
| 8405s | bit more uh in june |
| 8407s | the pot i don't know man are you |
| 8410s | pointing out i'm gonna call you the |
| 8411s | point from now on |
| 8413s | this can go on for what does it mean |
| 8417s | but again congratulations to the atlanta |
| 8419s | three and one over the houston outlaws |
| 8421s | destroying my predictions i believe |
| 8422s | yours as well you predicted that yes you |
| 8425s | predicted them though i am dominating |
| 8428s | because of this tournament yeah no i've |
| 8430s | gotten a little spot i think it's you i |
| 8431s | think you're the problem you are rubbing |
| 8433s | off on me the analytical person is so |
| 8435s | converted to predict this would have |
| 8437s | been atlanta like |
| 8438s | is always better in the playoffs houston |
| 8440s | always kind of struggled but you i don't |
| 8443s | know |
| 8444s | i was think i was looking at like the |
| 8445s | bigger picture because atlanta rain they |
| 8446s | were the last |
| 8448s | match yesterday they could be a little |
| 8450s | bit tired they're on hawaii time a |
| 8452s | little bit of relaxation and then to be |
| 8454s | the first game the next morning that's a |
| 8457s | pretty quick turnaround johnny it's a |
| 8458s | pretty quick turnaround |
| 8460s | but it didn't matter because stuff |
| 8461s | because atlanta rain are just that much |
| 8463s | better in this one uh no for real though |
| 8466s | like these are pretty too evil teams |
| 8468s | then i mean i think it was a bit of a |
| 8469s | coin flip going into it i started with |
| 8471s | the atlanta rain because like purely |
| 8473s | historical narratives really i mean |
| 8475s | they've been the better team so far this |
| 8477s | season in general houston outlaws |
| 8479s | they've struggled to get over these kind |
| 8481s | of playoffs humps so far and i do feel |
| 8483s | like we've seen a couple of standout |
| 8485s | players for the atlanta reign kai didn't |
| 8487s | even have the greatest of games in this |
| 8490s | one specifically and i'd say it was one |
| 8492s | of the weakest players honestly the way |
| 8493s | kai got picked many times but |
| 8495s | ultraviolet even yesterday the way he |
| 8498s | impacted the game with his sleeps with |
| 8499s | his violence og is finding picks on the |
| 8501s | senate hawk as well the flexibility as |
| 8504s | they talked about he's been impressive |
| 8506s | on so many different heroes but the |
| 8507s | venom venom specifically |
| 8510s | has been a standout player on this |
| 8512s | tracer and in many ways stepped up from |
| 8514s | his regular season performances and this |
| 8516s | is a rookie keep in mind i think venom |
| 8518s | is having a bit of a breakout |
| 8520s | performance here in this very tournament |
| 8521s | they're starting to make a name for |
| 8522s | themselves uh crucial pulse bombs |
| 8524s | crucial picks here in the duels and even |
| 8526s | though pelican isn't the strongest racer |
| 8528s | player i feel like venom is very much in |
| 8530s | charge of the game he's not put on the |
| 8532s | back foot he's not trying to peel off |
| 8534s | for his team he's going aggressive he's |
| 8536s | aggressively finding picks he's being |
| 8537s | proactive these are great traits for a |
| 8540s | tracer player so liking what i'm seeing |
| 8541s | from venom and if he can keep up this |
| 8543s | momentum that's going to be a huge boon |
| 8545s | for that mountain range rest of the |
| 8546s | tournament yeah on the other hand though |
| 8547s | the houston outlaws their woes continue |
| 8549s | in the playoffs they literally a mirror |
| 8551s | matchup of what happened in the kickoff |
| 8553s | clash they go to the lore bracket early |
| 8556s | they beat the toronto defiant only to |
| 8557s | lose in the next round and you know i i |
| 8560s | there's a couple of things that really |
| 8561s | stood out to me in this match is lastro |
| 8564s | i understand that the flanking has |
| 8566s | catches people off guard but the atlanta |
| 8568s | reign was so ready for this and he was |
| 8569s | punished time and time again and it just |
| 8572s | felt like they were just kind of relying |
| 8574s | on individual performances rather than |
| 8576s | playing as a team and you could see that |
| 8578s | in their ultimate usage but bringing it |
| 8580s | back around the venom i completely agree |
| 8582s | venom on this tracer has been |
| 8584s | exceptional so far not just in these |
| 8586s | matches but over the entirety of the |
| 8588s | season and you can understand why he is |
| 8590s | playing over a great player like nero |
| 8592s | just on this tracer so excited to see |
| 8595s | more from him you know |
| 8596s | we just heard they're going up against |
| 8598s | the shanghai dragon |
| 8599s | or the san francisco neither of those |
| 8601s | teams are going to be easy so i'm |
| 8603s | excited to see how long this atlanta |
| 8605s | rain run can go in the playoffs because |
| 8607s | you know you're new here but they do it |
| 8609s | every single time like literally they |
| 8611s | did it in the 2021 finals like this team |
| 8613s | they went to the grand finals no one |
| 8615s | expected them that no one did a kickoff |
| 8617s | clash they did the same thing again so |
| 8618s | i'm curious to see where the train is |
| 8620s | going to stop definitely we'll see if it |
| 8621s | just keeps on a chug in but with that |
| 8624s | game come to a conclusion let's go ahead |
| 8625s | and take a look at our updated lower |
| 8627s | brackets |
| 8629s | and you know as you said atlanta rain |
| 8630s | going to move on take on either the |
| 8632s | shock or the dragons i believe he said |
| 8634s | that he preferred to try to take on the |
| 8636s | shock but probably could see the dragons |
| 8638s | as well there was the atlanta rain |
| 8639s | moving on uh and then we will see the |
| 8641s | philadelphia fusion take on florida |
| 8644s | mayhem that's going to be our next match |
| 8646s | so gentlemen going into there you know |
| 8647s | that i'm biased you know i'm a fusion |
| 8649s | fan i predicted them you predicted |
| 8651s | fusion |
| 8652s | yeah we all predicted fusion so we're |
| 8655s | all in agreement there's no analysis |
| 8657s | that we need to jump into |
| 8659s | i'm just playing the game |
| 8661s | going into this match what are your |
| 8662s | anticipations |
| 8664s | yeah i i for me i don't know i can't |
| 8665s | speak for johnny philadelphia fusion |
| 8667s | they haven't been the most impressive |
| 8669s | team in this tournament but the |
| 8670s | philadelphia sorry the florida mayhem |
| 8672s | were lucky to come out of yesterday's |
| 8673s | match reverse weeping the london |
| 8675s | spitfire they did start to have that |
| 8677s | sort of realization and someone said |
| 8679s | that in his interview if we lose this |
| 8680s | match we're going home and they sort of |
| 8682s | flipped that switch someone xe checkmate |
| 8685s | really sort of hit a fifth gear and they |
| 8687s | started coming through if they are going |
| 8688s | to beat the fusion they need to start in |
| 8690s | 5th year they need to be coming out and |
| 8692s | relying on that dive and that hitscan of |
| 8694s | hexy yeah i mean florida mayhem so far |
| 8696s | i've said it many times already now that |
| 8698s | the past couple of days i like the |
| 8700s | compositions that florida man were |
| 8701s | bringing out i like the playstyle they |
| 8703s | have got going but the philadelphia |
| 8705s | fusion i mean i i think their individual |
| 8707s | skill is just so ridiculously high um |
| 8711s | mm3 of course had a bit of a break-up |
| 8712s | performance against seoul dynasty we |
| 8714s | just like you know made waves like |
| 8716s | really everyone was just like wow mm3 he |
| 8718s | popped off in such a dramatic way cest |
| 8721s | has been like a consistent carry |
| 8723s | performer for the fusion so that's a |
| 8724s | great damage to you you got already fury |
| 8727s | is one of the best tanks of all time on |
| 8729s | the philadelphia fusion as well and |
| 8730s | belas ria he's had some nice wrecking |
| 8732s | ball tech you know navigating around the |
| 8734s | map so the philadelphia fusion i feel |
| 8736s | like |
| 8737s | they have this rookie roster you know a |
| 8739s | bit inexperienced they did have a nice |
| 8741s | kick of clash run but really in these |
| 8743s | global tournaments like the fusion they |
| 8745s | could really impress people here and you |
| 8748s | know |
| 8748s | elevate their reputation a little bit |
| 8750s | because i do think that people think of |
| 8752s | them as a bit of you know a middling |
| 8753s | kind of team and they could really like |
| 8756s | make a name for themselves and really |
| 8757s | elevate that to a top tier contender |
| 8759s | yeah for me as well with philly i i this |
| 8762s | match isn't as much of are they going to |
| 8763s | win it or they're going to lose it i'm |
| 8765s | curious to see the form that they're in |
| 8766s | are they going to be firing are their |
| 8768s | individual performances going to be up |
| 8769s | there because how far can they go |
| 8771s | they're a team that always does seem to |
| 8772s | show up in the playoffs and they can |
| 8774s | just like all of a sudden just be like |
| 8775s | if zest mn3 aim god all start hitting |
| 8778s | peak performances they can start |
| 8780s | knocking out teams that we wouldn't |
| 8781s | expect to be knocked out by them so i'm |
| 8783s | really just sort of getting a vibe check |
| 8785s | and if they get knocked out then you |
| 8786s | know that's the vibe right there they're |
| 8788s | not going to be very good really quick |
| 8790s | i'm going to add on top of the |
| 8791s | predictions i think they're going to go |
| 8792s | 3-0 for fusion i i think they're gonna |
| 8795s | go through as well i think they're gonna |
| 8796s | come out firing and i i expect fusion to |
| 8799s | hit that fifth year uh i'm gonna go with |
| 8801s | a 3-2 for the fusion error oh you think |
| 8803s | they i think i think florida mayhem have |
| 8805s | some good stuff off their sleeve you |
| 8806s | can't underestimate someone's |
| 8808s | flexibility on the tank roll like even |
| 8810s | bringing out some reinhardt stuff that |
| 8811s | could be a good matchup for the florida |
| 8813s | mayhem so i like the strategies and |
| 8815s | compositions from the mayhem so maybe |
| 8816s | they can you know catch |
| 8818s | not lose anymore just don't play losers |
| 8823s | you're gonna break poor reinforces heart |
| 8825s | but spicy predictions hopefully going to |
| 8827s | lead us into a even spicier match |
| 8829s | everyone we're going to be taking a |
| 8830s | quick break but don't go anywhere |
| 8832s | because when we come back we're going to |
| 8833s | see florida take on the philadelphia |
| 8835s | fusion |

| 9081s | our second match of the day features |
| 9083s | another lower bracket head-to-head |
| 9085s | between two teams that used to play |
| 9086s | pretty frequently now it's been quite a |
| 9089s | while matt what ties both the florida |
| 9092s | mayhem the philadelphia fusion together |
| 9093s | is that both teams that turned up but |
| 9095s | they could kick off clash and there was |
| 9096s | some hype about that early on they |
| 9098s | suffered at the kickoff clash in their |
| 9099s | respective regions and they've been |
| 9101s | trying to rebuild some form since then |
| 9103s | on the florida mayhem side right we're |
| 9105s | very excited about their new support |
| 9106s | line seeing how hydra fits in maxie were |
| 9108s | waiting on him to see and come into the |
| 9110s | roster on the philadelphia side of |
| 9111s | things there was absolutely a honeymoon |
| 9113s | period with this rookie laden team but |
| 9116s | getting back in the kickoff clash |
| 9118s | they're still looking for the glory that |
| 9119s | seemed within arms reach at the end of |
| 9122s | that first tournament and they're gonna |
| 9123s | have to get through the mayhem to keep |
| 9125s | going |
| 9127s | i think for |
| 9128s | philadelphia like they have the higher |
| 9130s | ceiling of the two teams right like if |
| 9132s | you were to look at just kind of like |
| 9134s | skill across the board like kind of |
| 9135s | where they could potentially go as a |
| 9138s | team i think you would definitely say |
| 9139s | the philadelphia fusion i know if |
| 9141s | everything goes right they could you |
| 9143s | know find themselves up there with some |
| 9144s | of the best in the league uh florida |
| 9147s | mayhem i think what you're looking for |
| 9148s | going into this match is that like |
| 9150s | they're not just like content with |
| 9152s | yesterday's result then it's like oh |
| 9154s | yeah we we reverse we blunden we're |
| 9156s | still in like that's great like you know |
| 9158s | a win like that can almost feel like |
| 9160s | you've just like you kind of completed |
| 9162s | your mission and you're just done uh |
| 9165s | where it could be a little bit hard to |
| 9166s | kind of get up into like game |
| 9169s | form today so i think looking at how |
| 9171s | florida mayhem starts uh that's what i'm |
| 9173s | looking at in this series well speaking |
| 9175s | of that matthew we got our starting |
| 9177s | lineup here for the mayhem featuring |
| 9179s | rupal alongside sir margins so we're |
| 9181s | expecting to see uh potential double |
| 9183s | flex support action we've seen so much |
| 9184s | it on the lucio before we've seen it on |
| 9186s | illios before as well it's incredibly |
| 9189s | aggressive not unlike super margins |
| 9192s | every other hero to be honest with you |
| 9194s | matt xe is the superstar uh of this |
| 9197s | mayhem team after what we saw against |
| 9199s | the london spitfire what a reverse sweep |
| 9202s | an incredible back end of that series |
| 9204s | from the mayhem and xe was the one that |
| 9206s | really put uh i feel the spitfire bet in |
| 9209s | those last couple of maps this team is |
| 9210s | riding a hype but it was a long day |
| 9213s | yesterday yeah absolutely i think xe has |
| 9216s | definitely |
| 9217s | made a huge impact since coming over and |
| 9220s | joining the florida mayhem |
| 9222s | uh |
| 9222s | it's a little bit unfortunate i think |
| 9224s | hydro is actually playing quite well but |
| 9225s | i think when you have a player like xc |
| 9227s | and you're able to get your |
| 9229s | hands on a a player that before he kind |
| 9231s | of uh retired took a break uh whatever |
| 9234s | you want to call like due to injury um |
| 9236s | he was one of the best hitscans in the |
| 9238s | league so being able to acquire him is |
| 9240s | huge uh philly we can take a look at |
| 9242s | their starting lineup coming into today |
| 9245s | and like the desk mentioned i think the |
| 9247s | sky is the limit for this team uh you |
| 9250s | know mn3 we've seen what he's been able |
| 9252s | to do i know aim god really you know |
| 9254s | with uh what carpe and fury like the |
| 9255s | veterans of this squad uh |
| 9258s | but if if they can get everything |
| 9260s | clicking and i think use this tournament |
| 9262s | you know maybe you get past florida here |
| 9265s | maybe you can even give the next |
| 9266s | opponent right you know you come in play |
| 9267s | well run for their money uh you start to |
| 9271s | i think scott's it like kind of just |
| 9272s | like make more of a name for yourself |
| 9274s | but i think just more give your team |
| 9276s | confidence that you can contend with |
| 9278s | those top teams and build even further |
| 9281s | right going into the future with this |
| 9282s | squad will you talk about this philly |
| 9284s | fusion roster having a high ceiling but |
| 9286s | the question for this team is how long |
| 9288s | can they operate at that level for the |
| 9290s | issue for them is that consistency right |
| 9292s | such an explosive start in the league |
| 9294s | they slowed down in a big way sort of |
| 9296s | following that into the kickoff clash |
| 9297s | finals but this is the team that is you |
| 9299s | know it's it's a couple veterans like |
| 9300s | you mentioned surrounded by these |
| 9302s | rookies here it's gonna be aim god |
| 9304s | obviously being the old head in this |
| 9306s | permutation of the roster with bella's |
| 9307s | rear coming in and playing uh main tank |
| 9309s | here or other tank i've got to say |
| 9311s | though mn3 and zest there's a reason why |
| 9313s | everyone's talking about them at first |
| 9315s | it was zest it was the genji and later |
| 9317s | the tracer play that really uh really |
| 9319s | excited us this comes in to the |
| 9321s | mid-season madness tournament tied for |
| 9323s | first on solo kills per 10 as tracer |
| 9326s | pretty important we see a lot of teams |
| 9328s | just try and have their traces without |
| 9330s | support go and try and hit these back |
| 9331s | lines hard and it's so hard to get those |
| 9334s | solo kills now with zenyatta being as |
| 9335s | powerful as he is zest is overcoming |
| 9337s | that particular issue in a lot of |
| 9340s | situations so it's a real boon to the |
| 9341s | fusion when he can get rolling in that |
| 9343s | way the team's really exciting uh but |
| 9346s | again people are not really sure where |
| 9347s | to put them i went against the dallas |
| 9349s | fuel though dallas looking a little bit |
| 9351s | weaker in this current meta game to be |
| 9353s | fair but that's still a huge patch to |
| 9355s | put on their shoulder as they try to |
| 9357s | advance here through this lower bracket |
| 9359s | it's still a huge win i know it del |
| 9362s | i guess like an unoptimal meta or an |
| 9364s | ideal meta for the dallas fuel uh |
| 9366s | they're still a very talented they'll |
| 9369s | still be on a lot of teams uh in that |
| 9371s | state and uh you can see this uh |
| 9373s | tracer's stats so far this season uh |
| 9376s | very impressive all around uh in terms |
| 9378s | of it really just kind of in the top |
| 9381s | what seven across everything pretty much |
| 9384s | uh |
| 9385s | top half of the league that's really |
| 9386s | impressive to kick off the season yeah |
| 9388s | and i think that now in a 5v5 format |
| 9391s | those solo kills are something you |
| 9392s | really can't rely on right especially |
| 9395s | with back lines you know starting to get |
| 9397s | patched in such a way that they become a |
| 9398s | little bit more self-sufficient so being |
| 9400s | like i said being able to achieve those |
| 9402s | these are the stats that matter right |
| 9403s | pulse one kills awesome is you know is |
| 9405s | pretty important but again if you have a |
| 9406s | player that can truly be a low economy |
| 9409s | high impact individual it releases |
| 9411s | reduces the pressure on your team in |
| 9413s | other areas of their game that's |
| 9415s | something to keep an eye on here as we |
| 9417s | you know want to see more from zesters |
| 9418s | this team really needs someone to push |
| 9421s | them over the line here the desk says |
| 9424s | they expect a 3-0 uh between the fusion |
| 9426s | to make him here that's pretty high |
| 9428s | praise for philly when they had their |
| 9430s | shakiness as well |
| 9432s | well i think if you are |
| 9435s | the florida mayhem and you come into |
| 9437s | this series expecting to just you know |
| 9439s | whoa |
| 9440s | maybe we'll kick it off you know |
| 9442s | and fall down too low and then you kind |
| 9444s | of like wake up say i don't know if |
| 9446s | you're going to be able to |
| 9448s | do that against this philadelphia fusion |
| 9450s | team right |
| 9451s | uh you're able to get by the london |
| 9453s | spitfire with it but philadelphia it |
| 9455s | just has a lot more firepower right i |
| 9457s | imagine you know if they're clicking to |
| 9459s | the point they're up too oh they're |
| 9460s | going to put you to sleep |
| 9461s | the bellas rear wrecking ball something |
| 9463s | we're seeing more of lately has been a |
| 9464s | pretty good look for philly fusion and |
| 9466s | mm3 if he comes out on that ash |
| 9468s | obviously one of the sort of earlier |
| 9470s | adopters of that pick in that eastern |
| 9471s | region we always talk about how we |
| 9472s | really see in the west uh definitely was |
| 9475s | it was incubated in that in the eastern |
| 9477s | region and m3 one of the core proponents |
| 9480s | of that pick if we get an xc widow |
| 9482s | though that's going to make this pretty |
| 9483s | spicy because i mean mm3 has some of the |
| 9486s | best widow stats in the entire league |
| 9488s | and it's not particularly close so |
| 9490s | that'll be fun if we get that but out of |
| 9491s | the gates here on elio someone will be |
| 9493s | on the wrecking ball the back line of |
| 9495s | rupaul and sir major here but i think |
| 9496s | it's interesting we've actually got brig |
| 9498s | zen for philly |
| 9500s | yeah he brings in has been pretty |
| 9502s | popular with the wrecking ball uh in |
| 9504s | combination so you have the harmony orb |
| 9507s | at range for the wrecking ball you can |
| 9509s | also kind of protect some of these |
| 9511s | players in the back uh with the brig but |
| 9514s | surma jet finds an early pick off okay |
| 9516s | both teams able to get key eliminations |
| 9518s | on the superstars of |
| 9520s | either side i'm in the fusion that move |
| 9522s | up to try and set up on the point here |
| 9524s | velocira wants to try and pressure |
| 9526s | margins direction |
| 9528s | yeah he's in trouble here they're very |
| 9530s | my mind very aggressive zen play but |
| 9531s | also both sort of highest deaths per 10 |
| 9533s | in the league because of that play style |
| 9534s | so it's a double double-edged sword here |
| 9536s | from belazaria he takes that one |
| 9537s | upstairs |
| 9539s | yeah it makes it look easy getting up |
| 9541s | there to the high ground as he's gonna |
| 9543s | chase uh xe as well |
| 9545s | doesn't want to give that |
| 9546s | widowmaker any sight lines it'll be the |
| 9548s | philadelphia fusion getting in control |
| 9550s | first the wrecking ball also really good |
| 9552s | against the widowmaker right uh being |
| 9554s | able to just |
| 9555s | constantly put pressure on dexy |
| 9560s | like immaculate |
| 9561s | bone structure and aim |
| 9563s | for rexy but getting around the wrecking |
| 9565s | ball in his face is |
| 9567s | no mean feat for even |
| 9568s | the greatest of our hit scan players in |
| 9570s | the league and nxt is trying to |
| 9572s | he's trying to worm his way around a |
| 9574s | little bit here oh my mn3 gets a free |
| 9577s | haircut he didn't he didn't want that |
| 9578s | one that's what happened |
| 9580s | yeah he was he was i think looking at |
| 9582s | the brig maybe for a second the brick |
| 9584s | shield went down and mn3 just kind of |
| 9586s | walked right into that one |
| 9588s | absolutely nice job there yeah you see |
| 9591s | zesty you know through the outline right |
| 9593s | just kind of |
| 9594s | holding in that position allowing bella |
| 9596s | tree to come from the side and put down |
| 9597s | some damage and look at how much they're |
| 9599s | trying to get xc out of the way yeah i |
| 9601s | mean execon i mean he struggles to do |
| 9603s | much from this position right that's so |
| 9604s | close recall there from zestimate |
| 9606s | through pressuring no grapple available |
| 9609s | and bella sorry sings them over the edge |
| 9610s | of the font farewell |
| 9611s | getting rid of some of these proximity |
| 9613s | mines here is remember it's the mayhem |
| 9614s | who flipped the point back and forth |
| 9615s | relax the background to get the thing |
| 9618s | done freebie on rupaul though and hang |
| 9620s | on philly are back on the point |
| 9622s | yeah a little bit of a cross mapper |
| 9624s | there |
| 9626s | not able to stay alive uh |
| 9629s | it's like what is it like a modern |
| 9631s | warfare where you throw the tomahawk up |
| 9633s | yeah |
| 9637s | yeah |
| 9638s | it's kind of like murdered them right |
| 9639s | yeah it's more of that |
| 9641s | all right xc with the infrasight he |
| 9643s | would love to handle mn3 and three knows |
| 9645s | he can't contend a long long range here |
| 9648s | with xc |
| 9649s | but the the latter is forced to place in |
| 9651s | these awkward close angles while he's |
| 9652s | under duress from the wrecking ball and |
| 9654s | such |
| 9656s | zest versus checkmate here |
| 9658s | [Music] |
| 9659s | zest forced away the pack |
| 9662s | a little too far off but i ain't got |
| 9663s | opens up the account nicely here without |
| 9664s | bella's rear the philly fusion |
| 9666s | just gonna try and get aggressive with |
| 9667s | their dps there and that oh my okay |
| 9669s | immortality feel forced there from |
| 9671s | rupaul i think you're happy enough with |
| 9672s | that here as the mayhem can't play on |
| 9674s | the point they can't get to the point |
| 9676s | with immortality they use it already not |
| 9678s | a good sign |
| 9679s | yeah name god has the transcendence in |
| 9681s | case they just kind of jump onto the |
| 9683s | point start a brawl someone will try and |
| 9685s | contest there yup he'll get it for a |
| 9687s | second now he's gonna get stunned and |
| 9689s | knocked out of that animation again |
| 9690s | bella's real ryan x his face forces him |
| 9692s | away marcia decides to try and come to |
| 9694s | the rescue with the transcendence i'm |
| 9695s | sure he keeps the widow in the fight but |
| 9697s | what else can they make him achieve with |
| 9698s | that ultimate someone can't even be kept |
| 9700s | alive but that's a big problem checkmate |
| 9702s | kind of lifts the pulse bomb there |
| 9704s | nothing doing in there's an immortality |
| 9705s | field in play but it's looking a little |
| 9706s | bit lonely nobody's basking in those |
| 9708s | rays margin eventually is removed and |
| 9710s | the philadelphia fusion |
| 9712s | really kicked the pace up a notch zest |
| 9714s | is limbering up for what may be a spicy |
| 9716s | series |
| 9718s | i was gonna say they had no answer for |
| 9720s | zest there early is |
| 9722s | he is able to just cause havoc for the |
| 9725s | supports of the florida mayhem |
| 9728s | so even though like are you playing the |
| 9730s | widowmaker there too so not like any a |
| 9732s | ton of like dps help like checkmate can |
| 9734s | kind of try and shadow him a little bit |
| 9736s | but |
| 9737s | man that is uh tough to deal with if |
| 9739s | you're in florida we'll see how they |
| 9740s | handle it here going into well |
| 9743s | so here's rupaul taking a elegant swan |
| 9746s | dive |
| 9747s | onto a bed of spikes |
| 9752s | yeah |
| 9753s | okay |
| 9755s | unlucky for rupaul they're not able to |
| 9756s | clear the way for himself before he |
| 9758s | dropped down had other things to worry |
| 9759s | about dog is unamused by that yeah hugo |
| 9762s | not a fan yeah |
| 9764s | yeah hugo is not a fan you tell him yeah |
| 9766s | you tell him |
| 9768s | it's a big fusion 3-0 believer so you |
| 9770s | can go on a walk |
| 9773s | close running matt is at home alone with |
| 9775s | the dog so much responsibility for this |
| 9776s | man still finds time to chop it up with |
| 9778s | me on the cast |
| 9780s | axis oh man he's feeling the pressure |
| 9782s | hey well you know what we tried to get |
| 9784s | everybody else to work with you but i'm |
| 9786s | the only one who will do it |
| 9798s | like |
| 9800s | basically instantly so like this is a |
| 9801s | really good start for florida right like |
| 9803s | as a bounce back maybe a little bit of a |
| 9804s | wake-up call in that first round |
| 9808s | yeah i could open it for them they i |
| 9809s | mean xc was so low on the high ground |
| 9811s | bella three was making good inroads |
| 9814s | they won't take the point now |
| 9815s | philadelphia is like kind of coming back |
| 9817s | and |
| 9818s | well yeah a lot of that fights were like |
| 9820s | happening off of the point nobody |
| 9821s | actually takes it there i don't want to |
| 9822s | cast the curse this again matt but we |
| 9824s | discussed this last time it could be |
| 9825s | hard to get like a complete cap on this |
| 9827s | point when there's a couple players |
| 9828s | still standing portraying ellen proves |
| 9830s | us wrong there this time |
| 9832s | so philly gets demonstrated back in the |
| 9834s | fight |
| 9835s | like you really need |
| 9837s | you know like three on threes especially |
| 9839s | with like howl mobile and survivability |
| 9841s | uh being huge for some of the heroes |
| 9843s | that are played in these compositions |
| 9845s | like even a three on three is probably |
| 9847s | not good enough to you know be able to |
| 9849s | or even like a four on three good enough |
| 9850s | to flip the point right i know tracer |
| 9853s | immortality field uh you know the |
| 9855s | ability to just roll on his wrecking |
| 9856s | ball roll off like a recall right like |
| 9860s | there's so many different things that |
| 9861s | you can just stall this out for |
| 9862s | teammates to get back |
| 9864s | you really need to pick up a few kills |
| 9866s | uh he sees me in the corner here pulse |
| 9868s | now he can recall out of that he knows |
| 9869s | his opponent will recall the same |
| 9871s | location though yeah zest debt to rights |
| 9873s | there got spotted out early by checkmate |
| 9875s | still a decent lead for philadelphia and |
| 9877s | four players to maintain this stall with |
| 9879s | but they're going to wrap around and aim |
| 9880s | god's direction here nobody mn3 is close |
| 9882s | by with bob available the transcendence |
| 9884s | is gonna be forced here here goes ain't |
| 9886s | got trying to support bella sorea in his |
| 9888s | attempt to pressure that background and |
| 9890s | he does force the transcendence from |
| 9891s | margie but elsewhere mn3 is filled by |
| 9894s | axi across the map philly now might be |
| 9896s | in store protocol |
| 9899s | yeah as we'll see so two players on the |
| 9901s | point here for philly they're gonna drop |
| 9903s | their ant matrix here is uh not able to |
| 9905s | get anything out of that as maybe they |
| 9907s | thought they can still fight it but zest |
| 9908s | you see this recall you know able to |
| 9910s | dive around a little bit that's gonna |
| 9911s | buy about i know five to eight percent |
| 9914s | so 72 for philadelphia fusion right off |
| 9917s | the rip they end up using a lot there |
| 9919s | towards the end i mean they use the |
| 9920s | transcendence in the minefield and then |
| 9922s | they also threw the ant matrix in |
| 9924s | from fix it after that so |
| 9927s | just to let the bob to work with here i |
| 9929s | mean bob's not there's no sleep right uh |
| 9932s | but bob you can just burn him down |
| 9933s | pretty quick |
| 9935s | plenty of opportunities to lose him |
| 9937s | unless he's placed in a particularly |
| 9938s | obnoxious place on point here's the ball |
| 9940s | from both sides transcendence okay |
| 9942s | immortality feel from fixer there living |
| 9944s | up to his name that could have been |
| 9945s | dangerous for the fusion mn3's bob |
| 9948s | though is summarily dispatched |
| 9951s | now the fighting will occur probably in |
| 9952s | that sort of low room on the left-hand |
| 9953s | side as zest is on the creep |
| 9957s | thanks now to vex his position so margin |
| 9959s | might be a tasty morsel here with a |
| 9961s | pulse |
| 9962s | remember zest has a extremely solid |
| 9965s | pulse bomb kill ratio and that's the |
| 9966s | stick he's looking for plus l plus |
| 9968s | didn't ask |
| 9969s | actually back to spawn now |
| 9971s | someone getting pressured a little bit |
| 9973s | but philly's still not in control yet |
| 9974s | and they may have managed to build up |
| 9976s | over 50 percent |
| 9978s | who is checking this pulse bomb doesn't |
| 9980s | connect oh someone's trying to roll good |
| 9982s | but doesn't get the contest yeah so it |
| 9984s | will flip to the fusion you still have a |
| 9986s | few players here split for the florida |
| 9988s | mayhem where they got to come up with |
| 9989s | kills here they got to go big |
| 9992s | margin |
| 9993s | okay that aggressive play style that's |
| 9995s | exactly what we want from him right now |
| 9997s | philly did flip the point back though so |
| 9999s | florida lose the chance to extend their |
| 10000s | lead in a winning fight |
| 10002s | drawn out as it may have been |
| 10005s | someone |
| 10006s | well that's a haitian pancake |
| 10009s | i gotta say the the the kills here for |
| 10011s | marchette was huge because if he doesn't |
| 10014s | come up with those two no you're at like |
| 10016s | 80 plus percent you have a few players |
| 10018s | still lingering around you lose those |
| 10020s | players like your last fight territory |
| 10021s | here for florida mayhem and it does not |
| 10023s | look good in that scenario so those two |
| 10026s | kills for surma jet huge |
| 10029s | someone hoping to continue to pressure |
| 10031s | here |
| 10032s | a lot of health on that wrecking ball |
| 10034s | but i ain't got opens up the account as |
| 10036s | xc down both ash players struggling here |
| 10038s | to have a real big impact |
| 10040s | he's called on balance for him but also |
| 10041s | someone who still goes forward despite |
| 10043s | that the transcendence comes in just a |
| 10045s | little too late from marjet still though |
| 10048s | the backlines are doing their job mn3 is |
| 10050s | brought down here florida still control |
| 10052s | the point |
| 10053s | and philly don't look any closer to |
| 10054s | taking it back ain't got to have the |
| 10056s | transcendence here now can they turn |
| 10057s | that into a kill opportunity on margin |
| 10059s | the immortality field from rupaul is |
| 10060s | gone and so margin tries to back off but |
| 10062s | fix it won't let him get away bellatria |
| 10065s | hopes to flip here and he gets it the |
| 10067s | minefield assisting with that and |
| 10068s | someone had his eyes turned elsewhere |
| 10070s | mn3 is back in the fight but philly have |
| 10072s | control they can go to 99 themselves now |
| 10076s | yeah and you've lost someone and you've |
| 10077s | lost checkmate so who's gonna stall it's |
| 10078s | gonna be bob as he runs right into |
| 10080s | another bob and gets pushed back bumpy |
| 10082s | bob action you'll have to see it but |
| 10084s | crucially it's still filling with |
| 10086s | control right now |
| 10088s | checkmate's looking for a location for |
| 10090s | this pulse bombers rupaul's the |
| 10091s | mortality field is removed but he was |
| 10092s | able to get the wrecking ball with that |
| 10094s | timer checkmate sticks it mn3 forced to |
| 10097s | tip the king is he'll continue to |
| 10099s | pressure this back line further this is |
| 10101s | good looks to the mayhem and now xc gets |
| 10103s | involved in a big way |
| 10105s | tracer stalls for just a moment but what |
| 10107s | can zest do not a lot we've gotta even |
| 10110s | game here only leos |
| 10114s | fbi every time we're on with a tracer |
| 10115s | it's just a pulse bomb that |
| 10118s | connects with these ashes for both teams |
| 10121s | it's uh i feel like you know xc and mn3 |
| 10123s | it's been a little bit of a rough go to |
| 10125s | start things off right uh you know how |
| 10127s | much pressure they're under the wrecking |
| 10129s | balls the tracers in the mix right |
| 10131s | that's |
| 10132s | really difficult because you know |
| 10133s | actually picks up a few at the end but |
| 10134s | this is where i think the game turned uh |
| 10136s | because you look at the type of |
| 10137s | situation they're in they're down there |
| 10139s | tracer the point just flips over you |
| 10142s | have players all over the place and yeah |
| 10144s | i mean those are two sick kills |
| 10146s | so madrid leads his team seven final |
| 10149s | blows to his name on that zen |
| 10152s | very much a third dps just when the |
| 10154s | mayhem needed him much |
| 10158s | he really does play like a third dps i |
| 10160s | mean you talk about a progression right |
| 10161s | we see like last show in the last series |
| 10163s | gonna go on some of these blanks and |
| 10164s | take these off angles uh you don't see |
| 10167s | the same type of like flanks from the |
| 10168s | surmajit but you do see him take lots of |
| 10171s | fights and be very aggressive in terms |
| 10173s | of uh you know chasing down kills and |
| 10176s | not being afraid to duel out with some |
| 10177s | dps yeah like look at this so like he's |
| 10179s | not flanking oh man but he's taking |
| 10181s | aggressive sight light so trying to give |
| 10183s | himself kills yeah at longer ranges xe |
| 10186s | okay |
| 10187s | barely able to stay alive bella freya |
| 10189s | says okay that's an immortality field |
| 10190s | i'll take that |
| 10191s | oh dear that's gonna have to be a recall |
| 10194s | good is causing so many problems here |
| 10195s | for the makeup and they've got to do |
| 10197s | something about bellatria |
| 10199s | yeah i was gonna say he is getting so |
| 10200s | close to getting like an environmental |
| 10202s | kill but while he's doing that someone's |
| 10204s | serving and i believe checkmate push on |
| 10206s | forward and they're able to get two |
| 10208s | players so now that you don't have the |
| 10210s | point for philadelphia this is going to |
| 10211s | be an advantage for the florida mayhem |
| 10213s | and they should be able to get control |
| 10214s | first i mean you're gonna be so |
| 10215s | frustrated if you're bella three are |
| 10217s | here for the fusion you really you cause |
| 10219s | a lot of disruption make it hard for the |
| 10220s | mayhem to execute their plans but the |
| 10222s | rest of your team gets flattened at |
| 10224s | range no less |
| 10231s | for philly now how do you try and |
| 10233s | approach this you want to try and take |
| 10234s | some of the high ground as you see |
| 10236s | fellas three and zest up here they tried |
| 10238s | this earlier though it didn't work oh |
| 10240s | it's gonna be some legit with a pick |
| 10242s | long range on m3 it's a lot of damage |
| 10244s | out of the way with the ash another pick |
| 10245s | from sir majid here early in the fight |
| 10247s | these are first picks |
| 10248s | continuing to lead the way for the rest |
| 10250s | of his team so below tries to shut down |
| 10252s | that amplification matrix there to some |
| 10254s | degree it works but so marcia's not |
| 10256s | using it he's playing elsewhere |
| 10259s | no and having a zen who can play |
| 10263s | this offensive i know and damage dealing |
| 10265s | focus and being able to come up with |
| 10267s | some huge pick-offs especially first |
| 10268s | picks to game changers uh fellas real |
| 10271s | dropped the minefield on the point over |
| 10273s | towards the florida mayhem side so we |
| 10274s | have pulse bomb that connects right bus |
| 10276s | down philadelphia they know it's dire |
| 10279s | they had to get so much i mean yeah no |
| 10281s | team no philly no no one else knows how |
| 10282s | to play against a third dps like this i |
| 10285s | don't know how anybody is supposed to |
| 10287s | deal with this fix of those able to get |
| 10288s | his opposite number across the map here |
| 10290s | there's a duel between zest and xc the |
| 10292s | latter who is very very low and that |
| 10293s | discord on someone makes him an easy |
| 10295s | mark but bob comes bustling in all of |
| 10297s | the point |
| 10299s | and now i'm not going to be able to take |
| 10300s | this minefields plus bob on the point |
| 10303s | how do you get in there and make a play |
| 10304s | after the philadelphia fusion the |
| 10306s | florida mayhem you know after that first |
| 10308s | point they bounced back in a big way |
| 10311s | really kind of dominating here in |
| 10312s | lighthouse |
| 10314s | so far it's been an absolute shutout in |
| 10316s | this third round |
| 10317s | fellas three are under pressure |
| 10320s | fix it keeps him topped up but again xc |
| 10321s | wins the duel he beats mm3 man to man |
| 10324s | like the third fourth time in this round |
| 10326s | maybe who's counting it doesn't matter |
| 10327s | to make him the only number they care |
| 10329s | about is the one at the top it's 98 and |
| 10331s | it's going up someone eventually goes |
| 10333s | down but he's able to get fixer for his |
| 10334s | troubles here would be checkmate trying |
| 10336s | to stay zest off at the point a bit of a |
| 10338s | tracer duel here and they're going to be |
| 10339s | a recall force from zest that means this |
| 10342s | overtime gets precariously low zest has |
| 10344s | to now stand and deliver without that |
| 10345s | defensive cooldown and a discord orb |
| 10347s | makes this all the harder checkmate |
| 10349s | decides instead they go for aim god but |
| 10350s | that might have actually been his |
| 10351s | undoing as the zen slaps him down |
| 10354s | and says to get out with a touch and |
| 10356s | recall he's doing some serious work for |
| 10358s | his team now and finally they get to the |
| 10359s | point but fixes set a light immediately |
| 10361s | zest eventually finds his mark it's |
| 10363s | margin going down and better sprays |
| 10364s | having to deal with xc now someone |
| 10366s | hiding in the corner rupaul now going on |
| 10368s | to offensive mode and he finds a second |
| 10371s | now an air matrix in play and mm3's in |
| 10373s | dire straight beautiful stuff from the |
| 10375s | mayhem and there's a zen gap in the chat |
| 10378s | love to start a series like that in |
| 10379s | florida looking good |
| 10382s | and they needed a start like this |
| 10386s | what we talked about was yesterday |
| 10388s | against the london spitfire took them a |
| 10389s | little bit to wake up i realized hey we |
| 10391s | don't want to go home just yet and come |
| 10394s | out today here no they lose that first |
| 10396s | turn to philadelphia but the next two |
| 10398s | all florida mayhem they're they seem to |
| 10400s | be kicking in all cylinders yet again |
| 10402s | you know taking some of that late series |
| 10404s | heroics from london into today's matchup |
| 10406s | which is scary for philly oh yeah |
| 10408s | they're just looking good xc magic just |
| 10410s | beautiful stuff so far florida with |
| 10412s | every reason to be pleased right now but |
| 10414s | it's a long series and there's much more |
| 10415s | to be played so don't go too far it's an |
| 10418s | elimination match between the mayhem and |
| 10420s | the fusion |
| 10438s | [Music] |
| 10459s | [Music] |
| 10528s | [Music] |
| 10567s | [Music] |
| 10598s | yay |
| 10611s | [Music] |
| 10642s | a hotly contested back and forth map one |
| 10645s | on elios sees the mayhem come out on top |
| 10647s | and some heroics here in the final |
| 10649s | stages from rupaul who not only deals |
| 10651s | with a lot of aggression in his |
| 10652s | direction but he helps someone clutch |
| 10655s | the round out here |
| 10657s | yeah massive start here for the florida |
| 10659s | mayhem i know you hear everybody on the |
| 10661s | desk fully expect uh philly to come in |
| 10664s | get a 3-0 |
| 10666s | uh in florida |
| 10668s | squashes that right off the rip right |
| 10670s | and see some of the healing done on the |
| 10672s | batiste i wasn't even playing batiste |
| 10673s | the entire time right i know there was a |
| 10675s | little bit of change up there you know |
| 10677s | playing uh some breaks so just i believe |
| 10680s | they're |
| 10681s | on lighthouse these are massive numbers |
| 10683s | yeah rupaul obviously uh you know played |
| 10685s | the baptism that first round uh and had |
| 10687s | a bit of a slow start on ruins right so |
| 10689s | the fact that his stat card looks that |
| 10691s | impressive uh after such a slow sluggish |
| 10694s | start from the flow to mayhem |
| 10696s | well that means a heck of a lot here got |
| 10698s | some substitutions coming in though so |
| 10699s | the uh the double-edged sword of sir |
| 10701s | majid comes out here sheath for the time |
| 10704s | being is artemo the veteran comes back |
| 10706s | in we have a substitution here for the |
| 10708s | philadelphia fusion fury talking about |
| 10710s | veterans fifth year in the overwatch |
| 10711s | league will replace rookie bellasria |
| 10714s | yeah and it'll be going to king's row |
| 10716s | will be the philadelphia fusion pick uh |
| 10719s | you bring in fury uh you know able to |
| 10721s | play the really you're kind of looking |
| 10722s | at sigma probably right here uh no sigma |
| 10725s | at a very high level i know we've seen |
| 10727s | him play diva in the past really just |
| 10729s | one of the more mechanically talented |
| 10731s | tanks that we've seen in overwatch |
| 10733s | history now also he kind of mentioned |
| 10735s | right he's like one of the only players |
| 10737s | still remaining right from the inaugural |
| 10739s | season i mean fury's been around for |
| 10740s | ages i mean he and carpe they're you |
| 10742s | know two five-year veterans on the same |
| 10744s | team but uh not many of rosters can can |
| 10747s | boast that same achievement uh fury also |
| 10749s | credited with one of the most uh |
| 10750s | freakish moments of premonition as a |
| 10752s | diva player with a uh you know |
| 10754s | season one season two maybe a a |
| 10756s | unnatural flick with a uh you know a |
| 10759s | pulse bomb heat from the defense matrix |
| 10761s | on gibraltar just really impossible |
| 10763s | things yeah we it's definitely up there |
| 10764s | with like that triple collat of merit |
| 10766s | just these astounding moments from star |
| 10768s | players so fury really wrote the book on |
| 10770s | that that flex tank that off tank play |
| 10772s | in overwatch one and he's here to |
| 10774s | continue his legacy man let's see if he |
| 10777s | can get a double fusion who frankly |
| 10779s | again uh show us two sides of a a coin |
| 10782s | there in that first map getting shut out |
| 10784s | in that last round not a good look |
| 10787s | and i worry |
| 10789s | i think you worry really if you're the |
| 10791s | fusion if you lose this map |
| 10793s | right all kind of like you say mostly |
| 10796s | like a rookie lineup right now you do |
| 10798s | have some veterans on the squad but |
| 10800s | do you lose the confidence right florida |
| 10803s | now they're starting to click right that |
| 10804s | would be what uh |
| 10806s | five maps in a row right i know the |
| 10809s | reverse sweep yesterday is like let's |
| 10810s | say the first two today like that's team |
| 10812s | it's on fire right now |
| 10814s | uh |
| 10815s | you'd be really worried about philly |
| 10817s | potentially going home in a |
| 10819s | pretty commanding fashion by florida |
| 10822s | i mean yeah that would be uh pretty |
| 10825s | incredible considering i think |
| 10826s | expectations for the mayhem aren't |
| 10827s | exactly |
| 10828s | sky high right well we saw them at |
| 10830s | kickoff clash we we sort of felt like we |
| 10833s | we took their measure pretty accurately |
| 10835s | the team has definitely evolved a lot uh |
| 10837s | since then though i feel like we're |
| 10838s | seeing obviously rupaul's edition uh you |
| 10840s | know smoothed out a lot of the rougher |
| 10842s | edges and also someone showing us a |
| 10843s | deeper |
| 10844s | tank pool like the wrecking ball their |
| 10846s | reinhardt player on that's like colosseo |
| 10848s | there's much more to this team than |
| 10849s | meets the eye and actually adds that bit |
| 10851s | of star power here that it's been pretty |
| 10853s | mind-blowing and how he's been able to |
| 10855s | just win those first pick duels against |
| 10857s | mn3 on the ash versus ash consistently |
| 10859s | in that last map it it's like two |
| 10861s | completely different um |
| 10864s | style of teams you would say right we're |
| 10866s | like philadelphia we talk about how much |
| 10868s | of like potential and like the |
| 10869s | individual skill of each of these |
| 10871s | players right and like if they can reach |
| 10873s | their highs like they can be one of the |
| 10875s | best teams in the league |
| 10877s | uh but sometimes it doesn't happen right |
| 10878s | sometimes like they'll have a fantastic |
| 10880s | game sometimes you have a little bit of |
| 10881s | an off game you know kind of like |
| 10884s | as weird as it sounds like you know how |
| 10886s | you feel in that day kind of uh scenario |
| 10889s | uh where florida |
| 10892s | they're just like they're not super |
| 10894s | flashy they're consistently good right |
| 10896s | uh and you feel like you know some of |
| 10898s | their more impactful players like |
| 10900s | someone exe sir majed they they are |
| 10903s | pretty consistent with their performance |
| 10904s | right uh to where |
| 10907s | if a team like philadelphia let's say |
| 10909s | you would look on paper maybe say hey |
| 10911s | you know they do have a little bit more |
| 10912s | you know talent they're able to hit a |
| 10913s | higher level |
| 10915s | if they don't come in and hit that |
| 10916s | higher level florida is skilled enough |
| 10919s | that they will just win a series like |
| 10921s | that right because they play pretty |
| 10923s | consistently gaming and game out |
| 10925s | and uh you are now looking at the source |
| 10927s | of our it's like delay here as we're |
| 10930s | getting animals oh we give that away and |
| 10932s | uh yeah the baby the people standing |
| 10934s | around sort of is it is it like |
| 10939s | might need some uh some some surgery |
| 10941s | here |
| 10942s | and you're uh |
| 10944s | you're pretty you know seeing that |
| 10946s | entire room and being able to figure out |
| 10948s | or |
| 10949s | figure out what the problem is i mean |
| 10951s | it's not even that impressive i'm |
| 10952s | actually just seeing the one shot of a |
| 10953s | player and figuring it out so i would |
| 10955s | say i have even less information to make |
| 10956s | that inference on making it even more |
| 10958s | impressive here's uh here's someone |
| 10960s | pretty darn impressive on illios here 10 |
| 10962s | points but |
| 10964s | sports awards probably do they let you |
| 10966s | do that ring this is that how i'm gonna |
| 10968s | get the edge over like some random |
| 10970s | league of legends or cod guy the real |
| 10972s | all right all right we'll get maybe |
| 10973s | maybe uh but all right i'll hit up your |
| 10975s | uh |
| 10977s | let's talk about this though i mean uh |
| 10979s | again we saw a lot of those first kills |
| 10981s | the first kills don't always manifest on |
| 10983s | these on these stat boards right they |
| 10984s | they usually just fall under like |
| 10985s | another one or whatever but look over |
| 10988s | 10.6 on ash that's pretty huge uh |
| 10990s | especially and i think this would be |
| 10991s | even more damning if it was side by side |
| 10993s | with mn3s ash on elos because a lot of |
| 10996s | the time these two players are seeking |
| 10997s | each other out early so they don't have |
| 10999s | to worry about getting right on the |
| 11000s | headshot they get rid of the ash and |
| 11002s | then they go to work |
| 11004s | i think it's also like we've seen so |
| 11006s | many players kind of come |
| 11008s | uh and go with like really explosive |
| 11010s | performances since xc like we've seen |
| 11012s | him at his peak right but you think back |
| 11014s | to like when he was on paris eternal and |
| 11016s | like the stuff he was pulling out |
| 11018s | like he was one of the more exciting |
| 11021s | promising players in the league right uh |
| 11024s | and when like he's not able to play for |
| 11026s | dallas fuel uh that kind of leaves a |
| 11028s | huge hole in their lineup like |
| 11031s | obviously i think still kind of getting |
| 11032s | a little bit more into like uh you know |
| 11035s | not like maybe like game shape so to |
| 11037s | speak right uh like kind of getting back |
| 11039s | to like the level of pro play |
| 11042s | but |
| 11042s | man like he is a scary player like a |
| 11045s | type of player who can take over games |
| 11048s | against the best and like what felt so |
| 11050s | tragic is that like actually was played |
| 11052s | by injury right it was actually physical |
| 11054s | limitations that prevented him from from |
| 11056s | playing uh and he had like must be so |
| 11058s | hard because he wasn't like reinforced |
| 11060s | where he just got lazy it was |
| 11062s | he had an actual issue |
| 11064s | i mean listen being being windsor's |
| 11066s | charge monkey can only you can only go |
| 11069s | so long doing that you know like you |
| 11070s | just jump in with his eye bubble and die |
| 11072s | so your other tank can get charged i |
| 11073s | don't think you want to do that in the |
| 11074s | long term i don't blame johnny i was in |
| 11076s | china with him i saw how that went down |
| 11078s | but in in the next case right like |
| 11080s | you know you want to try and you know do |
| 11082s | all this while you're young a lot of pro |
| 11083s | players like really want to fit this |
| 11084s | kind of experience in their lives and |
| 11086s | when you take a year off for an injury |
| 11088s | you have to have such dedication to get |
| 11090s | back to that same form you're talking |
| 11091s | about matt so this is a huge achievement |
| 11093s | for xe now he's going to deliver in the |
| 11095s | in the team format you know |
| 11097s | yeah because i'm sure in like |
| 11099s | seriousness if you are to speak to like |
| 11100s | you know custer johnny or any like pro |
| 11102s | player like |
| 11104s | yeah there's really nothing like it uh |
| 11106s | so to be able to kind of like bounce |
| 11107s | back from injury get back into it it has |
| 11109s | to feel awesome for xc's now it doesn't |
| 11112s | feel awesome is probably some of those |
| 11113s | you know damage boosted shots from zest |
| 11115s | on top of his head as it'll be a |
| 11117s | reinhardt base comp here uh kind of |
| 11119s | gives you a little bit when animo comes |
| 11121s | in you know you're gonna see some kind |
| 11122s | of like lucio type play uh and they're |
| 11124s | gonna play it with the may here so |
| 11126s | interesting setup philadelphia fusion |
| 11128s | are bringing out |
| 11129s | oh until zest brings the spice that |
| 11133s | damage boosted echo something that again |
| 11135s | we see some echo in the west drive but |
| 11137s | the mercy to invest even more heavily |
| 11140s | into that role man i mean it's it's like |
| 11142s | a unicorn out there so the mayhem have |
| 11144s | got to figure this out and i'm gonna |
| 11146s | have to do it quickly |
| 11148s | man i i'm just thinking about someone's |
| 11150s | pov of playing reinhardt into this and |
| 11152s | it is brutal he just gets punched |
| 11154s | right away chase goes for a charge and |
| 11156s | fury just dodges it and now he's kind of |
| 11158s | just stuck on the point yeah it feels |
| 11160s | like you're at like a zed concert as the |
| 11161s | reinhardt looking down there's like |
| 11163s | lights at all and everything flying |
| 11164s | around rail guns as well as mn3 makes it |
| 11167s | to |
| 11168s | someone |
| 11169s | forced to stand behind the shield and be |
| 11171s | more of a prop than anything else |
| 11173s | has the philly fusion whacked them by |
| 11174s | him for point eye |
| 11177s | so we'll see what the florida mayhem |
| 11178s | decided to do uh in terms of composition |
| 11181s | uh |
| 11182s | i think that reinhardt has a better |
| 11183s | chance a higher success rate at this |
| 11185s | part of the map than the first one |
| 11187s | against this type of comp because the |
| 11189s | street is so narrow uh and i think |
| 11191s | you're able to use the speed boost to |
| 11193s | get on top of you know aim god a little |
| 11195s | bit easier but |
| 11197s | man that first part of the map it is |
| 11198s | tough for someone |
| 11201s | tough for anyone if they're playing ryan |
| 11204s | so here aim god is the one |
| 11207s | shepherding forward someone there okay |
| 11209s | briefly knock down fury trying to make |
| 11211s | something happen there is someone |
| 11212s | classically tried to charge backwards |
| 11214s | but it's enough the mutual knock down |
| 11215s | with fury in the enemy territory is the |
| 11217s | perfect response from someone so it's a |
| 11218s | free doom kill right there |
| 11221s | yeah the damage boost in the mercy is |
| 11223s | also a little bit |
| 11225s | off-putting probably and just a little |
| 11227s | bit odd for someone as well and that'll |
| 11229s | be echo duplicate probably just to live |
| 11231s | there as the push is coming in |
| 11233s | from someone onto zest but |
| 11236s | just knowing like how much damage your |
| 11238s | shield is going to take and then a break |
| 11240s | right but when the the damage boost |
| 11241s | comes in and like there's extra damage |
| 11243s | coming through it's definitely going to |
| 11244s | be a little bit odd so you talk about |
| 11246s | not knowing how much damage is coming in |
| 11247s | combine the fact that you can't tell |
| 11248s | when sojourn is fully charged with her |
| 11250s | being damage boosted right that's pretty |
| 11252s | volatile for you as defenders i love |
| 11254s | that punch from fury that is just on |
| 11256s | point knocking someone forward into mn3 |
| 11258s | forcing him to drop the shield for just |
| 11260s | long enough there and fury's trying to |
| 11262s | do that a lot here matt you'll notice |
| 11263s | he's just trying to dive in and just |
| 11264s | separate the rhine make everyone more |
| 11266s | subject to this damage coming in |
| 11268s | especially from zest oh yeah i mean what |
| 11270s | what is he gonna what is someone gonna |
| 11272s | do turn like a rally with his shield |
| 11274s | yeah like charge the dude while he's |
| 11275s | punching |
| 11277s | right but you know then he's gonna have |
| 11279s | a mercy pocketed echo behind him put a |
| 11282s | few shots into and then just focus ah |
| 11284s | immortality field is the thing bro don't |
| 11285s | worry about it rupaul's got him |
| 11287s | trust in the homies |
| 11291s | that's a shadow mn3 |
| 11293s | knocked to the ground and someone with a |
| 11294s | very quick charge follow-up so quick in |
| 11296s | fact that even zest first couldn't |
| 11297s | answer it there's xe coming out now with |
| 11299s | an overclock and he'll claim |
| 11301s | the skyborne zest that'll be enough for |
| 11303s | the mayhem here to hold on he can invest |
| 11304s | a sound barrier |
| 11306s | yeah i i'm trying to figure out why |
| 11308s | invested the sound barrier maybe they |
| 11310s | thought that fight was still going to go |
| 11312s | on a little bit longer and fury is |
| 11314s | actually using a meteor strike and i |
| 11315s | believe checkmate was on the ground |
| 11316s | sleeping so maybe they thought i know |
| 11318s | trying to be able to keep him alive uh |
| 11320s | that was that impactful probably to be |
| 11322s | able to counter some of the echo play |
| 11324s | but |
| 11325s | you don't have that a positive sign |
| 11327s | though is that like the the philadelphia |
| 11328s | fusion don't have like a massive support |
| 11329s | all to use here either so |
| 11331s | not at a huge disadvantage |
| 11334s | checkmate trying to keep tabs on zest as |
| 11336s | a disrupts to the shot will make it a |
| 11338s | little bit hard possessed to pass |
| 11339s | through this area at all constantly |
| 11341s | being pocketed by fixer though means |
| 11342s | that zest can be a sticky threat |
| 11344s | resilient and hard to shift and mn3 |
| 11347s | commands the higher ground here sending |
| 11348s | animo to an early grave and someone's |
| 11350s | gonna have to charge to get out of this |
| 11351s | little snafu and matrix thrown up there |
| 11353s | so the healing coming in from rupaul is |
| 11355s | good but it's not enough to keep someone |
| 11356s | up and eventually zest will claim the |
| 11358s | baptiste as well checkmate though is an |
| 11360s | issue he's going after fury there next |
| 11362s | he's able to fend him off here this |
| 11364s | could be big for the mayhem they have a |
| 11365s | couple players left but mn3 is gonna dig |
| 11367s | deeper and go more aggressive until he |
| 11369s | gets what he wants and that's the |
| 11370s | checkpoint |
| 11372s | the and they actually get a res off |
| 11374s | during that on to aim god so aim got |
| 11376s | able to hit a sleeping a biotic grenade |
| 11378s | after that so |
| 11379s | the mercy is paying off finally |
| 11381s | someone's like can i please stop playing |
| 11383s | right right guys uh it gets on to the |
| 11386s | winston so uh winston with the lucio in |
| 11389s | the mix so |
| 11390s | i wonder if this is a situation where |
| 11392s | like man you wish you had like a majed |
| 11394s | in is you know potentially play the zen |
| 11396s | against this fury when he sees the |
| 11398s | winston come out he's going to end up |
| 11400s | going over to diva |
| 11401s | oh man |
| 11402s | the image the way these dps are playing |
| 11405s | to play you play anything |
| 11407s | with the way you know that you're |
| 11408s | playing |
| 11409s | the soju and hitting a little diff |
| 11411s | though i mean mm3 is getting the better |
| 11412s | of xc quite often here on this map a bit |
| 11415s | of a mirror image of what we saw with |
| 11417s | the ash match up with ilios here's a |
| 11418s | valkyrie matt coming from saying that |
| 11420s | 2023 |
| 11422s | in the the zarya swat just for someone |
| 11424s | and the zarya is actually |
| 11426s | pretty good against the diva obviously |
| 11427s | as you've kind of known in the past is |
| 11430s | that so that they duplicate here he's |
| 11432s | going to get a graviton sir just yuri |
| 11434s | comes up with two |
| 11437s | dominants from philadelphia this is |
| 11439s | overkill philly going so fast i thought |
| 11441s | you were in next year already |
| 11443s | nice dupe there from zest to zayas |
| 11446s | now one of them accompanying the dv here |
| 11448s | we're throwing it back for philly |
| 11450s | good looks there in general the mayhem |
| 11452s | aren't able to come up with the answer |
| 11453s | in time i don't think we've seen much of |
| 11455s | someone's eye or at all so it's pretty |
| 11457s | clear to see that florida are being |
| 11458s | forced to explore some alternate |
| 11461s | strategies to try and answer first it's |
| 11463s | the sort of the echo mercy set up and |
| 11465s | then fury making that diva switch |
| 11467s | it's tough out there you've got to be |
| 11468s | quick on your feet to deal with these |
| 11469s | teams from the east |
| 11471s | yes uh you know the the reinhardt pick |
| 11473s | we talked about uh pretty difficult to |
| 11476s | make work there i know with animo in the |
| 11479s | game you don't have the option for like |
| 11480s | double flex support um |
| 11483s | so you're really kind of trying to build |
| 11484s | stuff around like lucio and brigitte for |
| 11487s | like his hero pool and kind of what do |
| 11488s | you make work with that |
| 11490s | uh philadelphia fusion you know just |
| 11492s | dominant on offense they'll have you |
| 11494s | already pick up the sigma here on |
| 11496s | defense which i mean we know from the |
| 11498s | past how good he is on sigma one of the |
| 11500s | best in the world |
| 11502s | yeah definitely one of his more |
| 11505s | well-known hero onslaught the diva which |
| 11507s | we got to see earlier on there so |
| 11509s | someone has shown us uh a fair bit here |
| 11511s | obviously florida that favored the |
| 11512s | winston play a lot earlier on in the |
| 11513s | kickoff clash so here's fury |
| 11517s | just very present in this fight |
| 11521s | what's even backed up by zest makes a |
| 11522s | big difference here but again i mean |
| 11524s | this guy's right at home on the diva |
| 11526s | shutting down |
| 11531s | the checkmate on genji here so this will |
| 11534s | allow them to access that high ground a |
| 11536s | bit better xc on the sojourn because you |
| 11538s | want to play that it's a little bit more |
| 11540s | dive aggressive with the winston they do |
| 11542s | not waste any time they are right in |
| 11544s | yeah and it works someone gets aimed |
| 11546s | straight away the fusion we're not ready |
| 11547s | for this level of aggression they are |
| 11549s | going to collapse in a screaming |
| 11551s | in three at least hold up but not much |
| 11553s | left here if you're making a late fight |
| 11555s | come back that was huge how philly it |
| 11558s | down two players there to bounce back |
| 11560s | that is a big deal |
| 11562s | it's crazy right because they use the |
| 11564s | immortality field up on the high ground |
| 11566s | they're still able to take out aim god |
| 11568s | it just doesn't seem to matter |
| 11571s | you get no progress on the point after |
| 11573s | this but they want to keep fighting fast |
| 11575s | here for florida as someone comes right |
| 11577s | over the top of anima comes right in |
| 11579s | they want to go challenge that high |
| 11580s | ground deny it from philadelphia yet |
| 11582s | again so i guess the issue becomes okay |
| 11584s | you can start the fight off but getting |
| 11585s | rid of mn3 is a big issue they do that |
| 11587s | right in the beginning here but it's a |
| 11589s | long range |
| 11590s | yeah it's a long range accretion to the |
| 11592s | high ground there and he's able to trade |
| 11594s | that that is a massive and then takes oh |
| 11597s | maybe three for fury here |
| 11599s | yeah philly started to take |
| 11602s | uh some liberties here with the miami as |
| 11603s | they dive in and they're doing it |
| 11605s | shortly they're doing it short-handed |
| 11607s | mn3 went down first in that previous |
| 11609s | fight there but the response from fury's |
| 11611s | fury was so quick that they may as well |
| 11612s | not have been a player disadvantage at |
| 11614s | all that is just scary to watch here so |
| 11616s | many threats for the fusion who do you |
| 11618s | target first |
| 11620s | and that is a really tough accretion to |
| 11621s | hit because fury is down on the low |
| 11623s | ground and axia is up on that top right |
| 11625s | platform like right above where someone |
| 11627s | is currently |
| 11628s | uh |
| 11629s | in that kind of angle and hitting a |
| 11631s | sojourn who has like a very small hitbox |
| 11633s | that is such a difficult thing to do |
| 11636s | all right aim god |
| 11638s | otherwise known as jeff |
| 11639s | having a back up there a little bit |
| 11641s | someone accretion didn't go towards him |
| 11643s | as this was enough to get rid of the |
| 11645s | winston |
| 11646s | and that looked awkward for the mayhem |
| 11647s | right looks like their rotation plan was |
| 11649s | a little unclear getting a freebie on |
| 11651s | zest there is nice do they have staying |
| 11653s | power they're waiting for someone again |
| 11657s | and you're gonna have sound barrier here |
| 11659s | like |
| 11661s | you can speed in |
| 11663s | with the sound barrier trying to use it |
| 11664s | that way you know a little bit more |
| 11666s | survivability uh |
| 11668s | just kind of kicks someone off of the |
| 11670s | high ground that'll be an ant matrix and |
| 11671s | it's going to be a gravity blocks uh |
| 11673s | that's a sound barrier but you you've |
| 11675s | had two people die already so you're |
| 11677s | really not going to get much value and |
| 11678s | transcendence if they need a map they |
| 11680s | just don't though oh m3 finishes the job |
| 11682s | there i mean hats off to fix a huge |
| 11685s | immortality field there against that |
| 11687s | dive |
| 11688s | yeah and i wonder when the sound barrier |
| 11690s | goes down it sounds like the gravity |
| 11691s | flux is coming out i wonder |
| 11692s | uh if it just like doesn't connect with |
| 11694s | the people in the sky or if they're too |
| 11696s | low that it doesn't really matter uh |
| 11698s | someone now goes over to the doomfist is |
| 11700s | florida just searching for answers but a |
| 11702s | brief switch here from fixer unclear |
| 11704s | what that is attempt it's supposed to |
| 11706s | anticipate here |
| 11707s | so a little bit less of that first |
| 11708s | healing the doom swap well i mean that's |
| 11711s | that's beautiful because i don't know |
| 11712s | how we got that telegraph to him |
| 11715s | rupaul down to a pulse so this fight's |
| 11716s | already over |
| 11718s | and yet |
| 11719s | okay |
| 11724s | we've seen florida get a few first picks |
| 11726s | but it has not resulted in anything |
| 11728s | right no i mean to be fair |
| 11730s | it's almost always traded back |
| 11732s | pretty quickly yeah fury gotta be |
| 11735s | careful this is very dangerous for the |
| 11736s | sigma armor finished with the job there |
| 11738s | but m3 sends the bob |
| 11740s | to control that high ground so now that |
| 11742s | my him again without the mechanisms to |
| 11744s | to make a substantial push here and |
| 11746s | animo he's hanging around that's fine |
| 11748s | but yeah just you know he throws himself |
| 11750s | out into m3 skyline after having that |
| 11752s | high ground denied that that's a huge |
| 11754s | stagger very punishing |
| 11757s | and nano blade a possibility here but |
| 11760s | target's just going to be everywhere |
| 11761s | from philadelphia fusion you go for the |
| 11763s | supports they have the transcendence |
| 11765s | last chance for the mayhem |
| 11767s | yeah nano blade might be the answer here |
| 11769s | xe |
| 11770s | doesn't have the sidelines here |
| 11773s | thought he had might have had something |
| 11774s | there but no rupaul's gonna go down |
| 11775s | another pulse on to ana from zest that's |
| 11777s | huge he is absolutely delivering that |
| 11780s | tracer position inside the blade yep no |
| 11782s | chance checkmate goes down before it |
| 11784s | happened again it's the pulse bomb on |
| 11786s | rupaul that denied the possibility to |
| 11788s | set up with the genji |
| 11790s | zest with the easy in chat and why not |
| 11792s | philly look vastly superior on king's |
| 11795s | row |
| 11796s | oh and actually goes to easy agree it's |
| 11799s | uh there's really nothing you can say |
| 11801s | there from the florida mayhem side |
| 11802s | philadelphia fusion they pick king's row |
| 11805s | they show why this one was as one-sided |
| 11808s | as it gets sad man mn3 and zest really |
| 11812s | came to life i also feel like florida |
| 11814s | they were in a tough spot |
| 11815s | compositionally i feel like they didn't |
| 11816s | have uh the best tools to fight back |
| 11819s | against fulfill he was thrown at him you |
| 11820s | might be right looks like fury on the |
| 11822s | sigma was a bit of a hard one to shift |
| 11824s | there so dig deeper into the metal mine |
| 11826s | here for the florida mayhem let's see |
| 11828s | what they can come up with as they'll |
| 11829s | have a map pick after the break |
| 11842s | [Music] |

| 12091s | royalty is in our midst the mid-season |
| 12094s | madness legendary skin royal night mercy |
| 12096s | is on sale now through august 19th for |
| 12099s | just 200 league targets so get yours |
| 12102s | today great time to snap that skin up it |
| 12104s | is i mean it's pretty sick mercy skins |
| 12106s | always kind of kind of hit this this one |
| 12108s | no exception to that one but hey what's |
| 12110s | royalty to a god here his aim got on the |
| 12112s | rest of the fusion to make short work of |
| 12114s | the florida mayhem on that second map |
| 12117s | king's row is uh who win it like you |
| 12119s | said it matt doesn't get much more |
| 12120s | one-sided than that |
| 12123s | no as uh |
| 12125s | there's really nothing uh really nothing |
| 12127s | that the florida mayhem did there that |
| 12129s | like |
| 12130s | made it remotely close uh it's pretty |
| 12134s | pretty much all philadelphia fusion |
| 12136s | there |
| 12137s | yeah look really solid obviously that |
| 12138s | you know a lot of those first doors |
| 12140s | getting won out by mn3 that sojourn |
| 12142s | popping off in a big way and it |
| 12144s | definitely seemed like while the dives |
| 12146s | started off well for the mayhem right |
| 12147s | they were getting like a kill on |
| 12148s | zenyatta straight away eventually as the |
| 12151s | fight went on you know with the baptiste |
| 12152s | play of course from the fusion they're |
| 12154s | able just to push back and and make it |
| 12156s | impossible uh for the mayhem to win so |
| 12158s | very impressive stuff |
| 12160s | this is just mn3's attack round on |
| 12163s | king's row now bear in mind they |
| 12164s | finished they did finish the map on that |
| 12166s | one so 12 final blows though six of |
| 12168s | those obviously coming from railguns and |
| 12170s | yeah pretty nasty railgun accuracy there |
| 12172s | up by 63 |
| 12174s | just the attacking round bear that in |
| 12176s | mind |
| 12177s | yeah no it's uh it's crazy the way that |
| 12180s | uh mn3 play there just the one death |
| 12182s | there on king's row |
| 12184s | i know the 12 final blows uh i mean just |
| 12188s | there was no answer and you were |
| 12189s | wondering like you know is he gonna come |
| 12191s | alive uh definitely bounce back there in |
| 12193s | king's row |
| 12195s | i mean you know bear in mind the winner |
| 12197s | of this matchup will go up against the |
| 12199s | loser of hangzhou and the gladiators so |
| 12202s | i mean no easy matches going forward |
| 12204s | from either |
| 12205s | either of these two so they'd better get |
| 12207s | used to it at this stage |
| 12210s | no easy matches from here on out i was |
| 12212s | gonna say there's really no easy matches |
| 12214s | throughout the entire tournament but man |
| 12216s | that's why it's just damn good overwatch |
| 12218s | like oh man it's been it's been a i mean |
| 12220s | again look both regions obviously have |
| 12222s | teams that are really dominant teams |
| 12223s | that are still finding themselves here |
| 12224s | but these are opportunities to kind of |
| 12226s | you know get your snapshot your two |
| 12228s | regions at their best and i'm excited |
| 12230s | about this next map peak map for one |
| 12232s | reason and that is gibraltar with like |
| 12235s | the top widow in the league |
| 12236s | statistically mn3 and actually who we |
| 12239s | know will pick that even in compromising |
| 12240s | scenarios there is potential for quite |
| 12243s | an explosive matchup of snipers here |
| 12247s | yeah and you're going to have uh with |
| 12249s | the gibraltar pick you're going to have |
| 12250s | a animal state in the game so |
| 12253s | uh no double flex support option here |
| 12256s | for the florida mayhem uh you know you |
| 12258s | can still if you want to play like |
| 12260s | wrecking ball right you could |
| 12262s | um |
| 12263s | but you're probably just going to play |
| 12264s | like that winston lucio stuff yet again |
| 12266s | right that's kind of what you're |
| 12267s | thinking about |
| 12268s | yeah it's good chance of seeing that |
| 12269s | there |
| 12270s | philly obviously have multiple avenues |
| 12273s | uh available to them i'd like to see the |
| 12274s | ball from them there's a there's a fun |
| 12276s | game right now where you can't see it |
| 12278s | but it's in the lobby i want to explain |
| 12279s | it basically when the admins are taking |
| 12281s | us in the game they they type in chat |
| 12283s | going in right and when everyone's ready |
| 12284s | yeah so what xe is doing is he just |
| 12287s | randomly just types going in out of |
| 12288s | nowhere to try and you know stress the |
| 12291s | fusion out thinking that an admin is |
| 12292s | trying to take the game in he's just an |
| 12294s | absolute troll |
| 12295s | uh this time though we are actually |
| 12296s | going in |
| 12298s | i i think he's just more just trolling i |
| 12300s | don't know if it's like a psychological |
| 12302s | war no he's just trolling but he's |
| 12303s | telling telling the admins to give him |
| 12305s | their job actually i think you're in the |
| 12307s | i'm not gonna yeah i'll i'll ask you |
| 12308s | over and see what they think but i think |
| 12310s | like the the hot shot superstar pro |
| 12312s | player job might be the better one to |
| 12314s | have right now |
| 12316s | don't i |
| 12317s | haven't worked either of those jobs |
| 12318s | personally |
| 12321s | yeah i mean |
| 12322s | we'll see what happens i mean if you |
| 12324s | kind of you're going up against mn3's |
| 12326s | widowmaker here and it doesn't go well |
| 12328s | it might not be better |
| 12329s | so we'll see |
| 12331s | uh |
| 12332s | on defense here with the wrecking ball |
| 12334s | uh we got a pause here quick so we'll |
| 12337s | figure out uh what's going on |
| 12340s | particularly devastating he did troll |
| 12342s | yeah maybe trolled him so hard that |
| 12344s | philly weren't actually ready for this |
| 12346s | uh we'll have uh confirmation the reason |
| 12348s | for that as well obviously of course |
| 12349s | know yeah there's a pause in affiliate |
| 12350s | game where that the face games just |
| 12352s | don't exist so like it's not like we can |
| 12354s | just throw philly up on the screen and |
| 12356s | show you what's going on there they are |
| 12357s | uh they are about a collection of pixels |
| 12360s | uh that don't move to us right now |
| 12362s | i believe it was uh rupaul called for |
| 12365s | the uh pause there uh so i believe it |
| 12367s | comes from the florida side so |
| 12369s | uh should be getting that sorted out and |
| 12371s | then right back in again it's his mouse |
| 12373s | wow it seems like they're ready already |
| 12374s | yeah all right so maybe just making sure |
| 12377s | that was connected he had that flipped |
| 12378s | over and spun it around briefly |
| 12381s | you see here that uh animo |
| 12383s | got some wrist apparatus going on of |
| 12385s | course |
| 12386s | exe with the the double sleeves that |
| 12388s | guy's just |
| 12391s | all right it's clean philadelphia fusion |
| 12393s | here on the rollout again we don't get |
| 12394s | the widowmaker match up off the bat mm3 |
| 12396s | opting to play arguably the more |
| 12398s | conservative the safer option in the in |
| 12399s | the sojourn yeah |
| 12401s | and i think uh also when you combo this |
| 12404s | is james and the giant peach |
| 12411s | there should be some some collision |
| 12413s | there |
| 12413s | [Laughter] |
| 12415s | that's what happens to the hamster |
| 12418s | as uh |
| 12420s | you can play the sojourn with the tracer |
| 12422s | and the ball right it's like a really |
| 12423s | aggressive setup |
| 12425s | south florida probably just a roadhog |
| 12427s | hook here off the off the bat see if you |
| 12430s | can get anybody from the high ground and |
| 12431s | then |
| 12432s | a little bit of a switch you got to do |
| 12434s | it it's your due diligence on a map like |
| 12436s | this just like a hanzo sonic is on route |
| 12439s | 66 |
| 12442s | on winston now |
| 12444s | winston the ball |
| 12446s | and maybe you wanted uh more of the |
| 12448s | brookie to play from animo uh being in |
| 12450s | the game because |
| 12452s | you're a little bit worried about like |
| 12453s | how good like zest has been on the |
| 12454s | tracer and then |
| 12456s | also the dive from the ball |
| 12458s | uh |
| 12460s | obviously i think you do lose out on a |
| 12462s | bit of damage not having the zenyatta in |
| 12464s | the mix and it's so strong right now |
| 12468s | we saw what major did for the team in |
| 12470s | that first map i understand there's |
| 12471s | protocols you don't just throw him in |
| 12472s | because he had a good map but |
| 12476s | obviously tough to see him go without |
| 12477s | him |
| 12478s | actually hardly perturbed by that |
| 12480s | disruptive shot there |
| 12482s | no collision so m3 had to basically |
| 12485s | estimate where that would stop |
| 12487s | pretty clever |
| 12489s | so they may have taken up this high |
| 12490s | ground residence with limited resistance |
| 12492s | from the fusion really uh happy to give |
| 12494s | that space up now and let's see how they |
| 12496s | may have made use of it |
| 12500s | yeah but the card is not like made |
| 12501s | enough progress right like you usually |
| 12503s | see like the high ground really make an |
| 12504s | impact when the cart's made up with |
| 12506s | weight through the tunnel but it hasn't |
| 12507s | made it just yet |
| 12510s | those rear going around and right until |
| 12511s | he gets put to sleep now a world of |
| 12514s | trouble doesn't have anything to use |
| 12516s | here but he's gonna get healed right |
| 12517s | back up i mean the one thing you should |
| 12518s | take note of is the fact that rupaul is |
| 12519s | not getting looked at by anyone he got |
| 12522s | the heel up someone entirely and he's |
| 12524s | under no dress whatsoever philly's i |
| 12526s | guess their target priority they're not |
| 12528s | really where it has to be i guess fellas |
| 12529s | ready to have backup whichever way you |
| 12531s | slice it too much space before it is |
| 12533s | honor and rupaul makes extensive use of |
| 12535s | it |
| 12537s | yes i'm really odd first point here like |
| 12540s | it was just trying to kill fusion |
| 12543s | not entirely sure uh as you know maybe |
| 12546s | this is something where philly's gonna |
| 12548s | have to change up a little bit is uh |
| 12549s | felicia is |
| 12551s | pretty far behind look at the picks up |
| 12552s | on the high ground there |
| 12554s | that's right great disruption but it's |
| 12556s | not enough to stop fix it from getting |
| 12558s | caught out there so the mayhem are |
| 12559s | definitely on the way |
| 12561s | perhaps this is just a map that they're |
| 12562s | much more comfortable with from a |
| 12564s | strategic standpoint mn3 though cares |
| 12567s | little for those things |
| 12573s | we know maybe it's something that |
| 12574s | they've watched uh the philadelphia |
| 12576s | fusion play and figure you know they're |
| 12578s | not |
| 12579s | they're not playing the right comps or |
| 12581s | maybe you don't have the you know right |
| 12583s | person i'll do it on this map as uh it's |
| 12585s | gonna be two kills for |
| 12587s | zest yeah i mean sometimes you can put |
| 12590s | him on tracer yeah you're in a good spot |
| 12593s | i think they got bailed out pretty big |
| 12594s | time there by uh mn3 incest did the |
| 12596s | fusion especially with bella freya's |
| 12598s | you know less than impactful positioning |
| 12600s | and allowing them to just hand over the |
| 12602s | fixer elimination so early in their |
| 12603s | fight |
| 12604s | can't afford that too often here |
| 12607s | checkmate under pressure here zest |
| 12610s | keeping him honest and again aim god |
| 12611s | going down here so another support |
| 12612s | picked off early |
| 12614s | the mayhem again started the fight on |
| 12616s | the right foot |
| 12618s | the end someone gets right on top of |
| 12619s | them and then three takes him out |
| 12622s | so it looks like you're gonna give this |
| 12623s | up a little bit if you're florida just |
| 12624s | this fight not this entire point you're |
| 12626s | gonna back out you know minefield |
| 12628s | transcendence overclock to be able to |
| 12630s | fight |
| 12630s | as the payload gets close to that second |
| 12632s | checkpoint |
| 12635s | it's kind of hard to see how bellasriya |
| 12636s | is linking up with the rest of his team |
| 12638s | here uh in some cases i just point out |
| 12640s | the fact that obviously a lot of |
| 12641s | pressure on the back line for the mayhem |
| 12642s | and that's kind of part of it pulse bomb |
| 12644s | from zest no connection and then three |
| 12646s | though nail someone and that's huge |
| 12649s | that'll relieve a lot of that pressure |
| 12650s | from philadelphia now maybe they can |
| 12652s | retake this high ground actually falls |
| 12653s | back by the disrupter shot him in three |
| 12655s | low |
| 12656s | valeria trying to get an etsy's face but |
| 12658s | doesn't have the staying power to shift |
| 12659s | him from there so |
| 12661s | i mean philly get elimination but |
| 12663s | florida's still able to jockey for good |
| 12664s | position |
| 12666s | yeah and florida will come back they'll |
| 12668s | have their nano boost here potentially |
| 12670s | to use on to someone or even animo so |
| 12672s | that'll be the rally use up here on the |
| 12674s | high ground as philly wants to get |
| 12675s | aggressive they don't want to allow |
| 12676s | florida to set this pace i mean that's a |
| 12678s | punish there in three punished for |
| 12680s | power sliding aggressively there is |
| 12681s | someone had the nano and of course a |
| 12683s | jump pack cooldown available now it gets |
| 12686s | a little bit dangerous fix it playing |
| 12687s | inside this small room of course you |
| 12689s | want your brick to be uh running in all |
| 12691s | cylinders here and someone with a |
| 12692s | discord or bottoms gonna make it very |
| 12694s | very hard for him to get out without |
| 12695s | that primal so he uses it nice plaster |
| 12697s | over there from bellator to slow someone |
| 12699s | down but it will still be a force |
| 12700s | transcendence out of ain't gonna |
| 12701s | actually still has this pole position |
| 12705s | yeah you're still controlling the high |
| 12706s | ground here for the florida mayhem uh |
| 12708s | you see feliciario trying to get up |
| 12710s | there into the ship but |
| 12712s | not able to finish anybody off just big |
| 12714s | damage coming down from florida mayhem |
| 12715s | and it looks like some kills gonna |
| 12716s | happen over time here but still another |
| 12719s | trade is |
| 12720s | you know philly has not been able to |
| 12721s | dislodge florida from the high ground |
| 12723s | but also florida hasn't really done |
| 12724s | anything with the high ground we're |
| 12725s | gonna sat here in this neutral state for |
| 12727s | a bit yeah or at least like it's been |
| 12729s | like a trade of kills just like this one |
| 12731s | checkmate goes deep here to try and |
| 12733s | group up with someone but it's a trade |
| 12734s | again |
| 12735s | that's lovely from bellazaria perfect |
| 12737s | use of the minefield and knocking the |
| 12739s | manhattan into them here i've got to say |
| 12742s | despite bella's three for all |
| 12743s | appearances playing a solo i also like |
| 12745s | that he's they're sort of trying to |
| 12747s | potentially body block something there |
| 12748s | donna's very very very good at using |
| 12750s | power driver to disrupt the rhythm of |
| 12752s | the maiden see like every time someone |
| 12753s | tries to dive matt he gets sort of |
| 12755s | knocked up and disrupted midway through |
| 12757s | that cooldown it's very frustrating for |
| 12758s | winston in that situation |
| 12761s | i like the ash swap here |
| 12763s | really good at long range and when we've |
| 12765s | been seeing a lot of these fights |
| 12766s | there's such close quarters that if |
| 12769s | you're able to get a good dynamite in |
| 12770s | that close quarter just a lot of damage |
| 12772s | no built up the other team's gonna have |
| 12774s | to run puts you in your better sight |
| 12776s | line is |
| 12777s | see that's a that's a kill again for the |
| 12780s | flight about him can they capitalize on |
| 12782s | this though i love that timing from |
| 12784s | someone he knows that from the high |
| 12786s | ground your mn3 is gonna be ejected so |
| 12787s | he links up perfectly with that |
| 12789s | displacement and philadelphia will have |
| 12791s | to see the checkpoint the mayhem with |
| 12793s | only about two minutes to work with so |
| 12794s | we'll see if this ash switch is the |
| 12797s | difference maker because just in terms |
| 12798s | of how x he's looked |
| 12800s | definitely been a better pick for him so |
| 12801s | far this series |
| 12804s | yeah i think the the ash has been really |
| 12806s | uh i think for the western region teams |
| 12808s | been something that they've started to |
| 12810s | use a little bit more we've seen it in |
| 12811s | the east but the teams in the west have |
| 12814s | been pulling out the ash it's been |
| 12815s | pretty effective in certain situations |
| 12817s | and certain parts of the map i feel like |
| 12819s | right here this is kind of like almost a |
| 12821s | part of a map that like ash was like |
| 12823s | designed for right like the perfect |
| 12824s | sight lines perfect distance |
| 12828s | elevation really good wind velocity yeah |
| 12831s | humidity |
| 12833s | all right check my pulse here as |
| 12835s | veloceria makes a strafing run |
| 12839s | just waiting for the dive here oh no |
| 12841s | pulse bomb connect but doesn't matter |
| 12842s | because he has the the damage that just |
| 12844s | ruined xc with the pulse pistols |
| 12846s | someone's primal rage here now i wonder |
| 12847s | how he tries to use this he wants an |
| 12849s | environmental kill but he realizes it |
| 12850s | might be too risky especially with a |
| 12852s | player down here |
| 12854s | that's still pretty good payload |
| 12856s | progress here you're going to get it |
| 12857s | under this bridge |
| 12859s | see it looks like you're waiting here |
| 12860s | just to get everybody back at full |
| 12862s | strength you can see axis outline coming |
| 12864s | on back |
| 12866s | chimney takes so much damage going in |
| 12868s | with that pulse bomb 35 seconds he's out |
| 12871s | of sync with someone someone's diving |
| 12872s | back at the same time his checkmate |
| 12874s | tries to commit for a kill so even if he |
| 12875s | gets something |
| 12877s | yeah because the minefield tap in here |
| 12880s | mm3 wants to start this one himself oh |
| 12882s | rupaul can't do much about that one |
| 12884s | these rails are hidden hard |
| 12888s | not a whole lot to be done there that |
| 12889s | was a great pc grail from mn3 didn't get |
| 12891s | kills for those but the damage was big |
| 12893s | this is bad news for the mayhem now |
| 12895s | their odds of a map completion starting |
| 12898s | to get away from them |
| 12900s | yeah and someone is going to switch over |
| 12901s | to the doomfist it's going to be a pulse |
| 12903s | bomb from zest on to rupaul but uh yeah |
| 12906s | fix it here using the rally not able to |
| 12909s | make it back towards the payload but |
| 12912s | pretty decent progress there for florida |
| 12914s | mayhem you get both checkpoints and you |
| 12915s | get about halfway uh towards the end of |
| 12918s | the map i think it's been a really |
| 12919s | interesting map so far because both |
| 12920s | teams are like evidently being faced |
| 12923s | with you know different struggles right |
| 12925s | philadelphia are obviously uh giving up |
| 12927s | a lot of ground at the start of that |
| 12929s | round and bella's real with that sort of |
| 12930s | weird play inside server room with no |
| 12932s | backup and we're watching rupaul just |
| 12934s | basically sip cocktails and throw |
| 12936s | grenades and look very comfortable and |
| 12938s | then florida getting slowed down towards |
| 12940s | the end of that map there and finally |
| 12941s | the disruption from philly starting to |
| 12943s | starting to take hold seeing a little |
| 12945s | bit of uh you know out of sync plays |
| 12948s | from the mayhem here so quite |
| 12949s | fascinating but philly the ones that end |
| 12950s | up recovering like in the round and hey |
| 12953s | i'm at completion |
| 12954s | and maybe a widowmaker out of the gates |
| 12956s | could be on the cars for philly |
| 12959s | that would be exciting seeing this |
| 12961s | widowmaker battle so maybe xc expects it |
| 12964s | to happen here |
| 12965s | that this is so huge |
| 12968s | yeah the anakila i'm pretty sure |
| 12970s | and probably not even expecting that to |
| 12972s | happen right |
| 12974s | well and that by i mean i think such a |
| 12976s | kill doesn't happen i don't think that |
| 12978s | someone can touch in time anyway well he |
| 12981s | probably got slowed down i guess by like |
| 12982s | half a second by having to maybe like |
| 12984s | die backwards and not get blown up but |
| 12986s | he would have died to the pulse anyway |
| 12987s | so still |
| 12988s | it was very nice and it would have made |
| 12990s | it impossible for florida to win a fair |
| 12991s | fight there |
| 12998s | finally get a philly game are you doing |
| 13000s | me like that okay i'm in three on the |
| 13001s | sojourn once more |
| 13003s | johnny was on the edge of his seat |
| 13004s | probably seeing the the moyra zen hover |
| 13014s | [Applause] |
| 13021s | actually yeah 80s wheaties apparently |
| 13026s | ah bella in the back line uh he just got |
| 13029s | hit with everything |
| 13032s | really nice sleep dart and then the |
| 13034s | biotic ready to follow it |
| 13041s | is such a |
| 13042s | tremendous hit scan player that |
| 13046s | you know he can just take over these |
| 13048s | games sometimes and starting off here on |
| 13049s | the widowmaker |
| 13051s | i mean he has looked phenomenal thus far |
| 13053s | and it's going to force the switch mn3 |
| 13055s | is going to try and play the widow to |
| 13056s | match it yeah fair enough xc is a real |
| 13058s | terror on this widow |
| 13060s | and there it is |
| 13062s | and then three opens up and gets that |
| 13064s | counter widow kill |
| 13065s | now a fusion have the ability to advance |
| 13070s | yeah it's like uh |
| 13072s | but i would love to see that shot it had |
| 13073s | to be a grapple and a really interesting |
| 13076s | spot is a bow supports your stuff for |
| 13078s | florida mayhem |
| 13080s | that par driver would have been lethal |
| 13081s | to animo he would have been popped up |
| 13083s | into mn3's purview these head shots on |
| 13086s | someone are coming consistently enough |
| 13087s | to keep the winston out of the fight and |
| 13089s | god follows up i mean you've got to ask |
| 13092s | the question why we haven't seen widows |
| 13093s | so far from him in three or before he |
| 13095s | just headshot a bloody tracer off screen |
| 13099s | it also helps that zest gets right up in |
| 13101s | excess girls he's trying to come out to |
| 13103s | spawn |
| 13104s | and he does it yet again here just uh |
| 13107s | oh and he's gonna be like hey everybody |
| 13109s | is here |
| 13110s | florida they're in a tough spot do you |
| 13111s | try and i tell it you have the wrecking |
| 13113s | ball behind you uh it's gonna be a |
| 13115s | difficult spot to get out of |
| 13117s | the pressure from zest makes it hard for |
| 13118s | the mayhem to coordinate on the |
| 13120s | following up on that sleep dart on |
| 13121s | bella's rear so the wrecking ball gets a |
| 13123s | stay of execution for philly and they |
| 13125s | continue to advance |
| 13127s | xc pops the infrasight here |
| 13129s | and philly know that trying to advance |
| 13131s | through this is inadvisable |
| 13136s | yeah you're wondering like how are they |
| 13137s | going to stop this potential you know |
| 13140s | fast push from philadelphia fusion the |
| 13142s | infrasight's just so scary i know you |
| 13145s | play like xc that vision he's going to |
| 13146s | be able to knock down those shots pretty |
| 13148s | easily |
| 13150s | three not taking widowed angles right |
| 13152s | now because he knows |
| 13154s | i think he actually someone want to jump |
| 13156s | up top and he actually hit his head on |
| 13158s | the overhang no value from the nano |
| 13160s | still the primal on the horizon and |
| 13162s | pressure being applied now to mn3 |
| 13165s | pressure of the simian kind looks good |
| 13170s | someone gets right back in the mix here |
| 13173s | uh you're not even worried about having |
| 13175s | to protect xc bella austria can't get in |
| 13177s | close enough to |
| 13179s | really make you sweat if someone can |
| 13181s | control this high ground can mm3 keep |
| 13183s | forcing the widow from this position do |
| 13184s | you think |
| 13187s | it's going to be tough right because |
| 13189s | well what is what are your options uh |
| 13191s | i mean you move off of the widow |
| 13195s | axey is gonna what stand on the ship and |
| 13197s | you know just kind of click heads to the |
| 13199s | rest of the game |
| 13200s | you need the widow to kind of keep them |
| 13201s | honest but if someone can just control |
| 13203s | the high ground like we see him doing |
| 13204s | currently |
| 13206s | i mean he may just kind of play the rest |
| 13208s | of the the round looking like this |
| 13210s | without a primal someone likely would |
| 13212s | have died there |
| 13213s | there was enough players i think on that |
| 13214s | high ground to follow up on the |
| 13216s | immobility the pile driver would have |
| 13218s | imposed on someone |
| 13221s | better mind swatted away in midair okay |
| 13223s | easy as you like |
| 13226s | you go like that because you can't play |
| 13228s | i mean what are you gonna do play ash |
| 13229s | here right |
| 13231s | i mean |
| 13232s | you'll be able to survive the winston |
| 13234s | but |
| 13235s | you're not going to be able to go in |
| 13236s | against these widowmakers oh he's done |
| 13238s | he's absolutely cool nice position from |
| 13240s | someone with the body block and |
| 13243s | i would love to see from x's pov like |
| 13245s | what does the pressure look like that's |
| 13246s | being put on him because |
| 13249s | you know he's been at like full hp the |
| 13250s | entire time we've seen his outline like |
| 13253s | zest is able to get a kill on the honor |
| 13254s | there well where is this pressure coming |
| 13257s | in he might |
| 13258s | the philadelphia fusion on x i think the |
| 13260s | issue is if x is playing on top of the |
| 13261s | shuttle how does tracer really get there |
| 13262s | would you like to try you can't really |
| 13264s | blink across like you have to go to the |
| 13266s | bridge |
| 13267s | you don't have verticality as tracer you |
| 13269s | need to go the old-fashioned way and |
| 13270s | then maybe he just runs into rupaul |
| 13272s | first |
| 13273s | in the shuttle and says well i have to |
| 13274s | pulse this or i'm going to get ranch |
| 13276s | there it is xe gets him in three and |
| 13278s | philly are stumped matthew |
| 13281s | yes they cannot figure this out |
| 13284s | and what do you do with your wrecking |
| 13285s | ball right okay so this time they |
| 13287s | actually knock they knock him into mines |
| 13289s | but i don't know if it's going to be |
| 13290s | enough for like a fight win here his aim |
| 13292s | guard's going to use the transcendence |
| 13293s | going to try and keep everybody alive in |
| 13294s | this closed corridor the bio big one |
| 13297s | fixer |
| 13298s | gasping ferreira is checkmate |
| 13300s | trucks the life out of him |
| 13303s | pulse bomb there for check might as well |
| 13304s | plus yeah |
| 13306s | yeah when you go to the high ground |
| 13307s | mitch as the wrecking ball like just |
| 13309s | think about it from like this point of |
| 13310s | view right uh you're most likely playing |
| 13312s | the anna like up there with the |
| 13313s | widowmaker |
| 13314s | it's not like you have a winston shield |
| 13316s | to kind of like throw down and block a |
| 13317s | sleep dart coming in or something like |
| 13318s | that right like or even if the brig is |
| 13320s | up there with a uh i know a a whip shot |
| 13323s | right to just force you back like you're |
| 13325s | just flying up there and like what you |
| 13327s | get slapped by a grenade you have to run |
| 13328s | away like the tracer can't get up there |
| 13330s | with you it's pretty difficult |
| 13333s | zest and then three are both having |
| 13335s | issues getting through |
| 13337s | someone |
| 13338s | quite the door man if i must say so |
| 13341s | this knows he can't stand still for too |
| 13342s | long otherwise he loses his head to the |
| 13344s | enemy widow this is how he gets onto the |
| 13346s | shuttles we can double blink across |
| 13349s | but again rupaul always stands in his |
| 13350s | way in between him |
| 13352s | and axey and someone is constantly |
| 13354s | pressuring |
| 13356s | and that's just brilliant a headshot on |
| 13357s | the enemy tracer philly don't have an |
| 13358s | answer |
| 13360s | and someone's not even like |
| 13362s | worried about having to get back and |
| 13363s | like peel for the team like everybody is |
| 13365s | totally fine there |
| 13367s | as a |
| 13369s | man three he's got the hard wire but |
| 13370s | that's gonna be a biotic grenade yes |
| 13373s | and someone's even got primal here so |
| 13375s | you're not you're not really worried at |
| 13377s | all man these are fundamentals though |
| 13379s | that philly are stumbling on going up |
| 13380s | against uh you know a winston widowmaker |
| 13382s | set up on gibraltar it's been like this |
| 13384s | since the game is released 5v5 or 6v6 |
| 13387s | but the fusion cannot figure this out |
| 13390s | florida looking very very good setting |
| 13392s | up exit for success here and zeskin's |
| 13395s | pulse |
| 13396s | pulse right checkmate |
| 13397s | what a dab on him at the end of this |
| 13399s | round in philadelphia fusion i mean |
| 13401s | they'll be hanging their heads after |
| 13402s | that one devastating loss of momentum |
| 13405s | here on gibraltar |
| 13407s | well we talked so much about this like |
| 13408s | epic widowmaker battle right |
| 13411s | we like hardly even saw it uh |
| 13414s | because |
| 13415s | someone just dominated there like as |
| 13417s | soon as we got to the second part of the |
| 13418s | map he was absolutely dominant there on |
| 13421s | the high ground uh mn3 was non-existent |
| 13424s | once they got to that part of the map |
| 13427s | and it's really because someone just |
| 13428s | controlled that entire choke |
| 13430s | these two rookie lineups are trading |
| 13432s | blows and this series is about to get |
| 13434s | pretty scary for philadelphia they do |
| 13436s | have a map pick here that it better be a |
| 13438s | good one otherwise florida are gonna run |
| 13440s | away with it and lock them out of the |
| 13442s | tournament stick around everybody this |
| 13443s | is not the series you want to be missing |
| 13445s | map number four is right around the |
| 13447s | corner |
| 13491s | [Music] |

| 13688s | [Music] |
| 13694s | florida mayhem are showing us a |
| 13695s | multitude of different looks and someone |
| 13697s | is helming all of them this guy can do |
| 13700s | anything |
| 13703s | already |
| 13705s | [Music] |
| 13720s | someone has to eat the spaghetti |
| 13722s | someone was just able to follow up clean |
| 13724s | him up indeed someone's gonna flatten |
| 13726s | yurio here and dallas field get |
| 13728s | absolutely |
| 13732s | [Music] |
| 13734s | someone trying to clear a few minds he's |
| 13736s | very very low but he catches violence |
| 13737s | still somehow |
| 13741s | when it comes to rookies i think someone |
| 13743s | is someone that we're really gonna have |
| 13745s | to start heavily considering as one of |
| 13747s | the best |
| 13754s | yeah no doubt about it someone man of |
| 13756s | the moment and if you heard me say the |
| 13758s | spaghetti no you didn't someone though |
| 13761s | keeping it all very much in hand that |
| 13763s | was an incredible winston defense |
| 13765s | admittedly admittedly bellas ray on the |
| 13767s | wrecking ball kind of just you know |
| 13769s | living his best life out there |
| 13771s | it looked like the game plan for the |
| 13772s | philly was kind of non-existent but i've |
| 13774s | got to say this guy really really shut |
| 13776s | them down |
| 13779s | he was he was tremendous there on |
| 13780s | gibraltar uh |
| 13782s | really huge difference maker going |
| 13784s | through that highlight package i mean |
| 13785s | he's got so many like celebrations |
| 13787s | dances you know everything he's super |
| 13789s | animated uh |
| 13790s | he's our poster i think |
| 13793s | yeah i i was going to say you know |
| 13795s | well last year's got to use some of his |
| 13797s | moves right you won't get fined you |
| 13798s | still look cool |
| 13800s | and he's got to start copying someone's |
| 13802s | stuff |
| 13807s | i love it it's a high jun will come in |
| 13809s | here for exe uh and then you'll have a |
| 13811s | sir majid in fort animo so |
| 13813s | uh like some of the largest moves we've |
| 13815s | seen from the florida mayhem so far |
| 13817s | obviously uh xc coming up for hydra is a |
| 13820s | interesting one |
| 13822s | uh i wonder if this means uh you want |
| 13825s | like could check may play genji here |
| 13827s | right and you want maybe a tracer look |
| 13829s | as well and haidron comes in but we see |
| 13831s | nexi play tracer but look it's it's |
| 13834s | pushed so i'd be surprised if you get |
| 13836s | full dive bear in mind yeah like florida |
| 13838s | are very capable of playing like |
| 13839s | reinhardt based compositions on this map |
| 13842s | that's true um you maybe you get like a |
| 13844s | who knows i mean like a baptized zen set |
| 13847s | up without without lucio though the |
| 13849s | reincomp doesn't seem as great right so |
| 13851s | that might rule that out it's all gunbar |
| 13853s | there as well just behind sumatra a |
| 13854s | couple of words of encouragement here to |
| 13856s | you know this young player who's you |
| 13858s | know definitely playing the most high |
| 13860s | stakes match of his overwatch career i |
| 13862s | think that's sort of safe to say now |
| 13863s | elimination match they've really made a |
| 13866s | decently deep run here in the mid-season |
| 13868s | madness after a disappointing campaign |
| 13869s | in the kickoff clash |
| 13871s | and he delivered him map number one |
| 13872s | right we talked about uh you know just |
| 13874s | how involved he was and so many of those |
| 13876s | final blows and really really doing just |
| 13878s | a lot of the heavy lifting in terms of |
| 13880s | just eliminating the enemy team he's |
| 13882s | been he's faced criticism before for |
| 13885s | being reckless or dying frequently but |
| 13887s | you know you take that in hand with his |
| 13889s | offensive power and i think you still |
| 13891s | say that's a fair compromise |
| 13893s | absolutely i think for philadelphia here |
| 13896s | mitch |
| 13896s | uh no subs on their side |
| 13898s | uh i think you learned a little bit |
| 13900s | about like |
| 13901s | hey what's this team made out of right |
| 13903s | like they're kind of going toe-to-toe |
| 13905s | with florida right i think philadelphia |
| 13907s | probably the favorites for most people |
| 13908s | coming into the series um |
| 13911s | you find yourself behind |
| 13913s | like how do you bounce back out of this |
| 13915s | right |
| 13916s | uh |
| 13917s | because you know to go far in some of |
| 13919s | these bigger tournaments of the year |
| 13921s | right you know the the mid-season the |
| 13922s | playoffs uh |
| 13924s | you're gonna need to battle out of |
| 13926s | situations like this um |
| 13929s | i i think it's it'll be really telling |
| 13931s | how they come out and look here at this |
| 13932s | start |
| 13933s | on push because you know with zest and |
| 13935s | m3 they have that firepower like we |
| 13937s | talked about uh to really take it to |
| 13939s | florida and we've seen it at moments but |
| 13942s | uh you got to get everybody on the team |
| 13944s | kind of like on that same page right i |
| 13945s | think uh you know specifically i think |
| 13947s | like you know bellatria versus someone i |
| 13949s | think someone's had a tremendous game |
| 13951s | where you know bellatria has some |
| 13952s | moments but uh you know he can play |
| 13955s | better than what we've seen today |
| 13957s | again our issue was more with the game |
| 13959s | plan i think um yeah you know like i |
| 13962s | think that part of gibraltar the shuttle |
| 13964s | phase can be really oppressive |
| 13966s | especially because the attacking widow |
| 13968s | can only come from tougher ball yeah |
| 13970s | yeah exactly but the attacking we can |
| 13971s | only come from like one of four |
| 13972s | directions and most of them are kind of |
| 13974s | covered |
| 13975s | she usually doesn't want to play from |
| 13976s | the low ground so that rules out half of |
| 13978s | those options right and |
| 13980s | if defenders can get to a rhythm it can |
| 13981s | be punishing so philly have to like try |
| 13983s | and they have to manufacture some |
| 13985s | momentum here new queen street pick of |
| 13988s | theirs so let's see if they've got what |
| 13989s | it takes |
| 13991s | i mean that dominant king's row is not |
| 13993s | it's not that long ago |
| 13995s | uh |
| 13996s | he knows like |
| 13998s | philly could easily come out and put |
| 14000s | together a dominant performance here on |
| 14001s | push uh |
| 14003s | although when you do have to like select |
| 14005s | a push map right we only have a two in |
| 14007s | the pool like i feel like all teams are |
| 14009s | like pretty good at both of them now at |
| 14011s | this point right but you at least have |
| 14013s | something you can fall back to on either |
| 14015s | of them uh where |
| 14017s | you know it's not as huge an advantage i |
| 14019s | think it's like picking a map like an |
| 14020s | escort or a hybrid right but |
| 14023s | still we know we just saw in king's row |
| 14025s | what this team's capable of uh against |
| 14028s | florida |
| 14029s | i'm more interested now of like one can |
| 14031s | philadelphia reach that and kind of |
| 14033s | force us to a game five |
| 14036s | and what does florida have planned with |
| 14037s | this lineup that you got in right uh you |
| 14039s | sub in hydron uh you sub insert majed i |
| 14042s | think we know what's gonna happen in |
| 14043s | terms of the supports |
| 14046s | okay so maybe the sombra player this |
| 14048s | would be fascinating he would obviously |
| 14049s | have checkmate on yeah okay would have |
| 14051s | had him on like a less you know known |
| 14054s | hero of his |
| 14056s | so i think florida have maybe identified |
| 14058s | that bellis rear is a potential weak |
| 14060s | point here for the fusion if you exploit |
| 14061s | that wrecking ball and you know place |
| 14063s | sombra into it you might be able to |
| 14065s | derive some form of advantage there but |
| 14066s | it doesn't mean that there's no one to |
| 14067s | contest mn3 on those longer sight lines |
| 14069s | here |
| 14071s | yeah just think about though that the |
| 14073s | discord orb with the sombre hack onto |
| 14075s | the wrecking ball i mean |
| 14078s | that's going to be tough even onto the |
| 14080s | tracer right if you're able to get a |
| 14081s | hack off with that damage amp that's |
| 14083s | going to be tough yeah he's not going to |
| 14085s | mend three the dive oh it's sublime mn3 |
| 14089s | sent cartwheeling into the wall |
| 14091s | and the florida mayhem game plan is |
| 14093s | revealed in spectacular fashion |
| 14096s | you see from uh mn3's pfp like just kind |
| 14100s | of looking everywhere right he's got the |
| 14101s | tracer coming out from one way uh he's |
| 14103s | got the sombra from another uh it looks |
| 14106s | like that'll be hydra on here |
| 14109s | so uh something on the floor to mayhem |
| 14112s | side but |
| 14113s | uh man that sombra looked uh really |
| 14115s | strong there early on able to come out |
| 14117s | and get that first pick they also have |
| 14118s | control of the bot currently right so |
| 14120s | the bot is uh about 10 meters nothing |
| 14122s | too significant but still moving a bit |
| 14124s | so again you know we kind of hinted that |
| 14126s | this composition might be leveraged to |
| 14128s | punish the wrecking ball but all the |
| 14129s | mayhem did there was identify him in |
| 14131s | three's location and dive on him right |
| 14134s | they opted out of a neutral because |
| 14135s | they're not playing a poke composition |
| 14137s | philly don't get the luxury of sitting |
| 14138s | back and and trying to you know draw a |
| 14140s | beat on their opponents with mn3's ash |
| 14144s | it's still this like um |
| 14147s | you're not so in the last map right when |
| 14149s | we saw actually play the widowmaker uh |
| 14152s | especially on that second point like |
| 14154s | zest and uh bellatria is like a duo |
| 14157s | we're not able to really give a lot of |
| 14159s | trouble to the back line |
| 14161s | maybe you feel like hey bring surma jet |
| 14162s | in the mix right you get some extra |
| 14164s | damage on the zen harmony orb onto the |
| 14167s | ana right and being able to heal each |
| 14168s | other make it even harder right for that |
| 14170s | back line and then also your dive is |
| 14173s | going to be even strong like your |
| 14174s | aggression is going to be even stronger |
| 14176s | right with someone on the doom and then |
| 14178s | a tracer sombra combination and take |
| 14181s | advantage of the philadelphia backline |
| 14182s | right because they're getting no appeal |
| 14184s | no type of support uh in which you feel |
| 14186s | like maybe that's where you can kind of |
| 14188s | find a little bit of a hole a little bit |
| 14189s | of an advantage so you are countering |
| 14191s | the wrecking ball without actually |
| 14192s | focusing the wrecking ball you're just |
| 14194s | trying to exploit some of the weaknesses |
| 14196s | of bellasreya's hero choice here by just |
| 14198s | sort of working around him and you and |
| 14200s | you trust himself |
| 14201s | to stave off zest and bella |
| 14203s | with the help of rupaul in many of these |
| 14204s | situations |
| 14206s | yeah exactly uh because we've seen him |
| 14209s | be able to do that you know with some |
| 14210s | help uh in the past then also even in |
| 14213s | this series of time so uh right back |
| 14215s | into the game |
| 14217s | someone oh he's a problem isn't he |
| 14219s | zest absolutely ruined fair and |
| 14221s | meanwhile i'm god |
| 14223s | brought to his knees by hydra |
| 14228s | and they got the philadelphia fusion |
| 14230s | back it up now so someone's taking a |
| 14232s | little bit of damage that's going to be |
| 14233s | mn3 |
| 14235s | potentially the huge pick off there on |
| 14237s | sir magenta so |
| 14239s | just back in the fight i mean keen has |
| 14241s | been throwing himself into the fray |
| 14242s | against someone once more |
| 14245s | really fighting a couple of these you |
| 14246s | know kills mn3 now i mean like he's you |
| 14248s | can't touch him really here |
| 14250s | that was a fast kill though onto him i |
| 14253s | mean he is out of the equation so |
| 14255s | fastest |
| 14257s | that's a summer call back |
| 14259s | yeah they'll go in favor of the philly |
| 14261s | fusion uh they'll get the bot moving |
| 14263s | they'll kind of cross at |
| 14265s | midway point so they'll get their |
| 14267s | barrier moving at least |
| 14270s | but i'm interested to note i'm more |
| 14273s | looking at like what is kind of the |
| 14275s | deaths for the florida mayhem supports |
| 14277s | from like the tracer |
| 14280s | in the |
| 14281s | ball combination so that's a full spawn |
| 14283s | that goes on to someone so you get the |
| 14284s | tank from the florida mayhem out of the |
| 14285s | way should be able to move that barrier |
| 14288s | even further up see the hydrant got shot |
| 14290s | out of the fight completely there if you |
| 14291s | hit if you hit sombra with dynamite she |
| 14293s | cannot hack until the top stops taking |
| 14295s | damage it interrupts that channel |
| 14297s | obviously so i don't just like i'm |
| 14298s | bugging this i'm out of here i'm just |
| 14299s | gonna go heal up |
| 14301s | nice little bit of tech there from mn3 |
| 14304s | intentional or otherwise |
| 14305s | hydrant returns to the frey soon enough |
| 14308s | gets the hack on zest and splats and |
| 14310s | look at that that is a discord the hack |
| 14313s | and then the nano boosted doom right on |
| 14315s | top uh there's nothing he can do means |
| 14318s | zero |
| 14319s | time to react |
| 14321s | and again the hack duration is shorter |
| 14324s | but even a short window can be exploited |
| 14325s | there by the fusion mm3's bob is slipped |
| 14327s | everything's going wrong for philly |
| 14328s | right now |
| 14331s | the hack duration |
| 14335s | is short yes but |
| 14337s | now right there when you get that damage |
| 14339s | down and then also amp the damage of |
| 14341s | sombra being able to finish some off |
| 14343s | some of these kills |
| 14344s | you see someone |
| 14346s | got in trouble |
| 14348s | someone hydron and checkmate just like |
| 14350s | as a three-person unit just |
| 14353s | roaming the map just searching for |
| 14355s | players who are a little bit too split |
| 14357s | no supports in sight |
| 14359s | they want to pick up those kills so this |
| 14361s | is always a test of rookies in game |
| 14364s | can you can you adapt mid-round without |
| 14367s | coaches input or interaction because |
| 14369s | they need to come up with an answer to |
| 14370s | this software composition they may even |
| 14372s | get to pick and choose their target and |
| 14373s | more often than not they're able to |
| 14374s | dispatch it with this excellent |
| 14376s | coordination they're displaying another |
| 14378s | hack another death |
| 14379s | again got down rather fighting three |
| 14381s | from that high perch was able to find a |
| 14383s | key kill on someone |
| 14385s | and god provides |
| 14387s | yeah now before aim god goes down he's |
| 14389s | actually able to kill checkmate which is |
| 14391s | huge |
| 14392s | they jump on aim god and within this |
| 14394s | second of being uh able to take him out |
| 14396s | he's not actually able to use that |
| 14397s | transcendence so |
| 14399s | uh |
| 14400s | looks like he'll have fellow stream fall |
| 14402s | here towards the end hydron's still |
| 14404s | alive i was gonna say is there a chance |
| 14406s | like hydra like tries to spawn camp |
| 14407s | another high oh they get a hack |
| 14409s | yep |
| 14410s | now if there's old enough to get the |
| 14411s | recall if there's more than three |
| 14413s | players maybe that's a kill on zest but |
| 14414s | he's able to escape because you pointed |
| 14416s | out |
| 14418s | still i mean |
| 14420s | puts the fear of whatever deity you |
| 14421s | serve uh in your opponent when you |
| 14423s | hacked him like that and just jumped |
| 14426s | test again got a full foul the hack |
| 14428s | again he's just having a recall that's |
| 14429s | dude i like that check mate doesn't |
| 14431s | quite make the prediction though |
| 14433s | a little late i think you dropped it a |
| 14434s | little earlier i think it would have |
| 14436s | been uh |
| 14436s | it's one of those situations where |
| 14437s | better late than never doesn't really |
| 14439s | apply |
| 14440s | much down though better is able to find |
| 14442s | the zenyatta here |
| 14443s | someone always in the mix to try and |
| 14445s | trade with the wrecking ball starting |
| 14446s | now to have some impact |
| 14448s | what is moving forward i still have to |
| 14450s | leave but someone is |
| 14451s | believed to say the least |
| 14454s | yes it's gonna be the philadelphia |
| 14456s | fusion bouncing back for the fight when |
| 14458s | able to take the lead |
| 14460s | they're gonna get to the checkpoint here |
| 14462s | they have to use all their ultimates to |
| 14463s | do it they have fixed a nail on the brig |
| 14467s | let's see if the emp could come in here |
| 14470s | hydrangea trying to figure out |
| 14472s | the best targets the best times a few |
| 14474s | players up there at the high ground |
| 14476s | yeah i mean obviously aim god dies |
| 14478s | instantly basically if hydra is able to |
| 14480s | shoot him after the emp |
| 14484s | someone here |
| 14485s | actually just trying to get a bit of |
| 14486s | information for the time being |
| 14488s | he sees bella's rear at the back here |
| 14491s | you'll know there'll be a wrapping flank |
| 14493s | here on that right-hand side for the |
| 14494s | ball do mayhem definitely need to make a |
| 14496s | move though they are behind we're in the |
| 14498s | halfway point of the round just past it |
| 14499s | here hydra is still holding his emp man |
| 14502s | yeah i think they're actually trying to |
| 14504s | with someone there what we were seeing |
| 14505s | he's just trying to find a target i |
| 14507s | think and |
| 14508s | a little bit scarier to go after that |
| 14510s | zen when the brig is in the mix now |
| 14512s | right |
| 14513s | yeah i mean not that it wasn't scary |
| 14515s | enough already that's it mn3 picks up |
| 14517s | hydron at a distance that emp gives you |
| 14520s | nothing mn3 starting to control that |
| 14522s | higher ground this is something we |
| 14523s | highlighted right there's no long range |
| 14525s | opposition for mn3 so how will it be |
| 14527s | kept in check well mate's got it |
| 14530s | philly though |
| 14531s | want to keep advancing here and another |
| 14533s | wrecking ball inclusion from bellatreya |
| 14535s | bot is still going for the fusion |
| 14539s | do you switch off of this if you're the |
| 14540s | florida mayhem like what are your |
| 14542s | thoughts you don't have an emp here you |
| 14544s | don't have pulse bomb i think you |
| 14545s | probably a tracer seems to be like the |
| 14549s | the one consistent pick against like all |
| 14551s | compositions uh |
| 14553s | do you consider trying to throw |
| 14554s | something else in the mix here |
| 14557s | this may well be like their |
| 14558s | anti-wrecking ball protocol |
| 14560s | on this map |
| 14562s | or anti-doom as well as we've often seen |
| 14564s | it used against teams like atlanta and |
| 14566s | houston |
| 14569s | doesn't look like he's really inclined |
| 14570s | to make that switch promise he can't |
| 14571s | really contest so if he's like the last |
| 14573s | player he has to just watch the bot go |
| 14576s | i don't take a ton of damage there |
| 14578s | potentially from burn it's unclear |
| 14579s | there's damage over time either way |
| 14582s | florida are a little bit disarray right |
| 14584s | now good pressure but they someone can't |
| 14586s | break through here great hold by this |
| 14588s | back line as aim god gets rid of him |
| 14591s | and they now know sir machete and he |
| 14592s | just like |
| 14594s | there's a bunch of players dead at that |
| 14595s | point she kind of jumps down from that |
| 14598s | high ground getting sloppy |
| 14600s | yeah i wonder if it was like maybe even |
| 14602s | meant for someone and you know up in the |
| 14604s | high ground just kind of someone walked |
| 14605s | into a uh someone's head walked in the |
| 14607s | line of scientists |
| 14608s | yeah this is |
| 14610s | this is starting to look like the philly |
| 14611s | fusion we saw in king's row right where |
| 14614s | they were just putting up a tremendous |
| 14616s | performance |
| 14618s | philadelphia are recovering here the |
| 14619s | mayhem again three is yep again not he's |
| 14622s | not contested |
| 14623s | might have been a big error |
| 14625s | you know going towards a sombra instead |
| 14627s | of trying to match longer range hit scan |
| 14628s | because philly is starting to make this |
| 14630s | a bit of a blowout now |
| 14632s | zest |
| 14633s | he's hunting |
| 14637s | even when he doesn't really need to |
| 14638s | you're getting close to finishing the |
| 14639s | map and this will be the rally oh what |
| 14641s | is to give some over health everybody |
| 14644s | okay clearly over 100 here this is |
| 14647s | dangerous for the mayhem with only two |
| 14648s | minutes left in the round i ain't got |
| 14649s | hack though so i can chase him down |
| 14651s | getting value out of the sombra here is |
| 14652s | imperative |
| 14656s | what's terrible for florida as well is |
| 14658s | they don't have the checkpoint currently |
| 14659s | right so when the bot goes all the way |
| 14661s | the other way |
| 14662s | it's gonna stop for a period of time |
| 14663s | yeah so like even if i'm contested here |
| 14666s | you're looking to start to get to your |
| 14667s | barrier |
| 14668s | with probably what like a minute and ten |
| 14671s | a minute a minute on the clock right uh |
| 14675s | you know best case right here's some |
| 14676s | kind of stall coming to hydra |
| 14679s | yeah so you're in a real top spot you |
| 14681s | need a faster oh |
| 14683s | this is enough |
| 14684s | the window is so slim hydrant hacked aim |
| 14686s | god if i'm not mistaken and then emp but |
| 14689s | i ain't got managed to get a |
| 14689s | transcendence in between oh yeah mm3 |
| 14691s | still goes down but that's quite |
| 14693s | remarkable you know itself the robot |
| 14695s | still needs the button |
| 14697s | he moved back i pushed the other way |
| 14698s | though zest was on it like the ball was |
| 14701s | about like towards the mid point here |
| 14703s | and zest actually got on it and pushed |
| 14704s | it back a little bit so that bites |
| 14706s | philadelphia even some more time |
| 14710s | all right the minefield could be a |
| 14711s | problem in overtime for florida as well |
| 14713s | hydron down him in three picks him off |
| 14716s | pulse bomb though is a good one on a |
| 14717s | fixer and someone you're gonna go |
| 14718s | aggressive with this one mm3 there's no |
| 14720s | escape |
| 14721s | so it looks like |
| 14723s | something i'm saying this butt scratch |
| 14724s | on the menu |
| 14726s | is bellasria |
| 14728s | not advised to try and stall here |
| 14731s | yeah it's uh just let it go |
| 14733s | let's get this checkpoint 30 seconds to |
| 14735s | go |
| 14736s | aim god gonna switch off of the zen and |
| 14738s | go to ana so maybe feel like uh you |
| 14741s | could get a sleep here on to whether |
| 14743s | it's someone or hydrant the biotic |
| 14745s | grenade could be big it's like a |
| 14748s | defensive use oh they're gonna try and |
| 14750s | nano sir majed here on the flank i love |
| 14752s | that he's the distraction though and |
| 14753s | then someone comes in from a different |
| 14755s | angle and disrupts the backline of the |
| 14756s | fusion in a huge way and yet it's still |
| 14758s | going to be a trade event three is able |
| 14759s | to deal with checkmate that might end up |
| 14761s | being a huge kill and here's the nano |
| 14763s | sir my jet looking for his next target |
| 14765s | but |
| 14766s | down to presenting themselves trying to |
| 14768s | chase ballistria down but he's gonna try |
| 14769s | and break line aside and someone's under |
| 14771s | a lot of pressure right now special |
| 14773s | delivery possessed it's air mail |
| 14775s | straight to rupaul's forehead and have |
| 14777s | all claimed the honor someone's in a lot |
| 14779s | of trouble burning down now and the |
| 14780s | overtime scenario goes as we feared as |
| 14782s | the philadelphia fusion they're forcing |
| 14785s | a map five |
| 14787s | so that is the philadelphia fusion i |
| 14789s | think people expected to see in this |
| 14791s | series today they saw it on king's row |
| 14794s | you see it here on toronto to force this |
| 14797s | game five |
| 14799s | i just don't think the florida mayhem |
| 14800s | really got things clicking with that |
| 14802s | sombra composition a bit of a gamble |
| 14804s | here |
| 14805s | doesn't pay off excited to see what they |
| 14807s | bring into this fifth game though cool |
| 14808s | man way to make it spicy so many of |
| 14810s | these elimination games are going all |
| 14812s | the way and we wouldn't have it any |
| 14814s | other way stick around everybody it's |
| 14816s | time to decide the fate of the mayhem |
| 14818s | and the fusion only one can advance in |
| 14821s | this lower bracket |
| 14848s | [Music] |
| 14885s | [Music] |
| 14892s | [Music] |
| 14906s | [Music] |
| 14920s | [Music] |
| 14937s | [Music] |
| 15039s | [Music] |
| 15046s | well here it is four maps of incredible |
| 15050s | and rather swingy overwatch later we're |
| 15053s | here in our map number five and the one |
| 15055s | question is |
| 15056s | who's got more left in the tank to make |
| 15059s | him losing that fourth map they get to |
| 15061s | select map five but whichever way you |
| 15063s | slice it it's gonna be a control map |
| 15065s | and i'm just gonna put it out there |
| 15067s | philadelphia map fives |
| 15069s | not exactly a match made in heaven uh |
| 15072s | that's putting it lightly so it's time |
| 15074s | to break the curse if they want to |
| 15075s | advance |
| 15077s | and you see some subs coming in here |
| 15079s | before the florida mayhem and i think |
| 15081s | they're quite interesting so xc coming |
| 15083s | back i think uh you know if you're not |
| 15085s | going to play the sombra that seems like |
| 15086s | what they kind of have hydra and working |
| 15088s | on now |
| 15088s | that makes sense animo comes in for |
| 15090s | sermon jet uh their map selection is |
| 15093s | also legion tower uh |
| 15096s | does i mean this kind of like at least |
| 15098s | to me uh seems like are we gonna see |
| 15101s | like some rhinos |
| 15103s | uh lucio type action uh or maybe |
| 15108s | yeah i mean some decision-based stuff i |
| 15110s | mean you can still play like maybe they |
| 15112s | want the brigitte in the mix uh on some |
| 15114s | of these compositions as well |
| 15116s | uh |
| 15116s | i think it's a really interesting call |
| 15118s | here |
| 15119s | do we get that from philadelphia orion |
| 15122s | lucio based |
| 15124s | rush looking styles |
| 15126s | again uh we've seen a lot of teams on |
| 15128s | control center especially offer genji |
| 15130s | that's absolutely hero |
| 15132s | in both checkmate and zest's wheelhouses |
| 15136s | both of them have actually displayed |
| 15137s | really impressive performances on them |
| 15139s | and xc comes back in right so we know |
| 15141s | we're probably not going to see any sort |
| 15142s | of sombra-esque strategy it's probably |
| 15145s | going to be hard hitting dps coming out |
| 15148s | from both of those longer range hits |
| 15149s | again here's the road ahead for the team |
| 15151s | fortunate enough to to advance here so |
| 15154s | obviously loser goes home and like i |
| 15156s | said for the winner it's a match up |
| 15158s | against the loser of hangzhou |
| 15161s | and the gladiators |
| 15163s | i mean that is uh |
| 15167s | these matchups are just insane like uh |
| 15171s | you know johnny actually picks the spark |
| 15173s | in that match yes |
| 15174s | i love it it |
| 15176s | it's a it's a little bit of a wild card |
| 15179s | pick but you know |
| 15181s | i'm just saying |
| 15182s | shy versus padapod that's some spot |
| 15186s | shy is crazy good uh |
| 15190s | you know another type of player like we |
| 15191s | talked about like xc and mn3 that could |
| 15193s | just dominate |
| 15194s | a lobby uh |
| 15197s | we'll see what the florida mayhem have |
| 15198s | cooking up here for this final map this |
| 15200s | was their map selection |
| 15203s | control center first if you were trying |
| 15205s | to play some reinhardt lucio stuff i |
| 15207s | mean you could not |
| 15208s | get a better map here first and yeah it |
| 15210s | looks like that's what they're hovering |
| 15212s | out here early on so interesting enough |
| 15215s | that they go back to this when it did |
| 15218s | not work on king's row uh king's row |
| 15221s | obviously very very different uh fury |
| 15224s | was able to play the sigma be on the |
| 15225s | high ground a lot of the time |
| 15227s | uh |
| 15228s | you know |
| 15229s | it was just he was just dominant |
| 15231s | domination from philadelphia |
| 15235s | can you run this wrecking ball set up |
| 15237s | here against this |
| 15239s | florida mayhem |
| 15241s | brian heart based composition it's yeah |
| 15243s | maybe it's more of a matter of will you |
| 15244s | want you as bellasreya the acquiesces |
| 15247s | it's going to be a wrecking ball versus |
| 15249s | reinhardt match up |
| 15250s | philly with the baptist zen look here |
| 15252s | florida with a pretty classic uh the |
| 15254s | composition that london really pushed |
| 15255s | right reinhardt rush with the may in |
| 15257s | there as well baptiste |
| 15259s | and lucio |
| 15262s | this is going to be a background sojourn |
| 15264s | yeah soldier seems to fit into any |
| 15266s | composition is |
| 15269s | not here he's being snuck up on |
| 15272s | jay mate holds it upon down |
| 15274s | aim god falls there to the endothermic |
| 15276s | blaster and zest is very hardly any |
| 15278s | better but i know he's under a lot of |
| 15279s | pressure bellatoria drops in this is |
| 15281s | going to be a scrappy affair but florida |
| 15284s | may have come out on top as that dust |
| 15285s | starts to settle a little bit but that's |
| 15287s | right able to find checkmate late in the |
| 15289s | fight but it's just it is too late |
| 15291s | hello |
| 15292s | yeah definitely too late so emma and |
| 15295s | three up there just kind of firing shut |
| 15296s | someone someone was quite low i actually |
| 15298s | thought he was going to fall first and |
| 15299s | philly was going to come out on top but |
| 15301s | a speed boost around the corner and |
| 15303s | check right up in his face solo |
| 15305s | one clip solo kills zest |
| 15308s | leads the league in lows and now you're |
| 15310s | seeing why trying to force the ice block |
| 15311s | out of check mate but he's a little too |
| 15313s | canny for that apparently someone though |
| 15314s | might be a decent candidate for this |
| 15316s | delivery and there it is that's another |
| 15317s | possessed someone goes down and animals |
| 15320s | in better days oh that discord made it |
| 15323s | awful hard to stick around what a way to |
| 15325s | open the fight for zest |
| 15327s | yes his tracer has been clean all series |
| 15330s | long like you know and mn3 has had some |
| 15334s | he's had a lot of good moments in the |
| 15335s | series like you kind of think back to |
| 15337s | gibraltar when it was really slowed down |
| 15340s | uh you know that's kind of the |
| 15342s | consistent player for the philadelphia |
| 15344s | fusion throughout is they'll have a |
| 15346s | minefield here set up so could be pretty |
| 15349s | good against this comp right florida |
| 15350s | needs to play close together |
| 15353s | just again hunting |
| 15355s | florida clumping up as their composition |
| 15357s | allows for |
| 15359s | constant pressure but that's going to be |
| 15361s | relieved by a nice kill to the cranium |
| 15364s | checkmate's effort to stave obsess and |
| 15365s | then destroy fix it this is a great look |
| 15368s | from florida right now someone may have |
| 15370s | gone down let's see how key he is to the |
| 15371s | planet at this point in the fight but |
| 15373s | the fusion don't really have the |
| 15373s | personnel to force anything to be back |
| 15376s | to the mayhem |
| 15378s | yeah i feel like at that point the |
| 15379s | damage is done right as florida will get |
| 15382s | the point back in their favor philly not |
| 15384s | even able to get up to 50 percent uh how |
| 15387s | do you get used to blizzard here |
| 15388s | like i i find this to be |
| 15392s | difficult uh you know maybe it's just to |
| 15394s | try and get the back line uh you're just |
| 15396s | gonna try and go after the zen rig |
| 15398s | uh with the blizzard because those are |
| 15400s | really the two like stationary targets |
| 15402s | everybody else has tons of mobility |
| 15404s | that was really lucky to get away there |
| 15406s | the main wall almost |
| 15408s | claimed him would have trapped him in |
| 15409s | there with his enemies checkmate has to |
| 15411s | ice block there he had a discord on him |
| 15413s | as well animo gets the sound barrier |
| 15415s | it's not interrupted but who's |
| 15416s | benefiting from it's just checkmate |
| 15417s | really that's a big investment to make |
| 15419s | in one teammate and checkmate eventually |
| 15421s | is failed anyway and then three's gotta |
| 15423s | connect those but actually shuts him |
| 15424s | down with a rail of his own bellasreya |
| 15426s | though dealing with the offending |
| 15427s | sojourn it's a big slam bella knocked to |
| 15431s | the ground and someone cleaned him up |
| 15432s | and the may have moved to 75 to 47. |
| 15437s | they have to use everything to do it but |
| 15440s | the fusion with some of the switches |
| 15441s | they've made you know you had the |
| 15443s | transcendence you haven't been able to |
| 15444s | build up like a secondary support office |
| 15446s | no rally nowhere close to being online |
| 15448s | and what are you relying on right now |
| 15450s | zest to make a play as someone gets |
| 15452s | taken out that's a discord with some |
| 15454s | extra damage coming through someone |
| 15455s | trying to follow up with the blizzard |
| 15457s | apparently but actually loses this |
| 15458s | sojourn duel mn3 comes out on top and |
| 15461s | philly are able to kind of swap through |
| 15463s | the mayhem and they'll have to flip as |
| 15465s | well below has to respect check mate he |
| 15467s | tries to store with an ice block on the |
| 15468s | point but it comes a second too late and |
| 15471s | that will give philly the advantage for |
| 15472s | the time being but all florida need is |
| 15474s | one fight win |
| 15477s | so what are you looking at here for this |
| 15478s | next fight uh ant matrix probably comes |
| 15481s | down do you do like a minefield near it |
| 15483s | right to force people out of |
| 15485s | uh you know that area so you're not able |
| 15487s | to get the big you know damage buff from |
| 15489s | that could be crucial |
| 15491s | probably what you're looking at here |
| 15493s | maybe just kind of like around the |
| 15495s | corner and you hit the sand matrix |
| 15497s | goddess rave is passing through for the |
| 15499s | time being |
| 15500s | animo okay zest in his way he's worried |
| 15502s | about where that trace is going he takes |
| 15503s | the mega himself seth doubles back but |
| 15505s | now that i have a split they are split |
| 15507s | up by bellatreya they're trying to |
| 15508s | regroup here you can see |
| 15510s | the checkmates left on his own |
| 15512s | so all the main have to back away |
| 15513s | because they realize you're in such a |
| 15514s | weak position |
| 15518s | yes this has taken so long to develop it |
| 15520s | like florida's speeding around the |
| 15521s | mountain |
| 15522s | and now it's actually taking out aim |
| 15524s | guard that's a big opening here zest can |
| 15526s | still equalize but he eats a fire strike |
| 15527s | from someone that's all falling apart |
| 15530s | for the fusion here to make him a fourth |
| 15532s | place to work with banners for his |
| 15533s | minefields having at least claimed |
| 15534s | arnhem over wearing the fusion a stick |
| 15536s | of root pile he couldn't get away from |
| 15537s | it though we mortality field for him now |
| 15539s | obsessed having to go against three |
| 15541s | trying to stay alive but it's just not |
| 15543s | going to be enough the maywall will |
| 15545s | compound the issue further and the |
| 15547s | mayhem take the first round in this |
| 15549s | fifth map |
| 15552s | it still comes down to the wire where |
| 15554s | now you're playing this composition for |
| 15556s | the philly fusion |
| 15557s | pretty much like the entire series right |
| 15560s | and you've been banking on it and |
| 15562s | i know right now here at the end i |
| 15563s | actually think this map's probably the |
| 15565s | best draw they could have gotten uh |
| 15568s | you know as the next stage i think |
| 15571s | you can use the wrecking ball here and |
| 15572s | be a little bit more effective uh lucio |
| 15576s | moira composition here potentially for |
| 15578s | the florida mayhem |
| 15580s | uh |
| 15581s | i don't love the combo uh i i think you |
| 15584s | just miss out on a ton of utility with |
| 15586s | like anna with the sleep the biotic |
| 15589s | grenade the nano boost |
| 15591s | but if you're going to play as like a |
| 15594s | you know suit of death ball right and |
| 15595s | run around with the doomfist uh moira |
| 15598s | does provide a lot of just healing you |
| 15601s | gotta strike first and strike hard with |
| 15603s | this setup |
| 15604s | so the mayhem take point |
| 15606s | first the lucio speed boost giving them |
| 15608s | the natural leg up there |
| 15613s | [Music] |
| 15616s | already picked fix it out with a |
| 15617s | beautiful rail headshot |
| 15619s | what a start for the mayhem here to try |
| 15621s | and end the series |
| 15624s | oh no |
| 15626s | oh it's knocked off the side but |
| 15628s | you know time and time again on the |
| 15630s | sojourn he's able to come up with these |
| 15631s | first picks is |
| 15633s | now ash obviously really good for the |
| 15635s | consistent damage |
| 15637s | just and also has like one shot |
| 15639s | potential right but not to the level of |
| 15641s | sojourn and i also think with surgery |
| 15643s | you just don't know how charged up the |
| 15645s | rail is at any time right you could be |
| 15647s | going in and you can yeah you don't |
| 15648s | really save not a lot of damage or you |
| 15651s | know it's a fully charged up rail and |
| 15652s | you're just gone love that switch of |
| 15654s | focus there is aim god is identified as |
| 15656s | a great target but someone ends up |
| 15658s | having to give up his life for that is |
| 15659s | it gonna be worth it checkmate is trying |
| 15661s | to make sure it is but he eventually |
| 15662s | goes down to mn3 |
| 15664s | actually knocked into mn3's part so has |
| 15667s | to very quickly try and rectify that as |
| 15669s | zest moves in to start the cap close to |
| 15671s | a pulse bomb he is here but he's |
| 15673s | unwilling to fully commit |
| 15675s | the maim are playing for the fringes now |
| 15676s | as their doomfist returns to the fight |
| 15678s | and they're going to solidify their |
| 15679s | control for now |
| 15681s | yes you're actually able to get back to |
| 15683s | full strength here for the florida |
| 15685s | mayhem is name gone back now for the |
| 15687s | philly fusion |
| 15690s | 50 percent it seems like they're just |
| 15692s | trying to figure out where to attack |
| 15693s | this from |
| 15694s | that's perfect i mean a little bit of a |
| 15696s | a different route there to make him |
| 15697s | leave the point in order to dive mn3 but |
| 15699s | they get the ash out of the picture now |
| 15702s | they can go forward platinum was taken |
| 15703s | down by a minefield though as bellas |
| 15705s | reyes trying to get some defensive |
| 15706s | structures in lieu of his opponents on |
| 15708s | the point and it's looking good for |
| 15709s | philly exits brought down bella's ray |
| 15711s | now just rolling around the edges here |
| 15713s | someone is low and checkmate has to |
| 15715s | recall here and long fight not good for |
| 15717s | the moira compositions as we see |
| 15720s | mayhem brought down it's really moved |
| 15722s | into residence here but at 74 already |
| 15724s | for florida matt yeah |
| 15726s | it took a long time to develop uh they |
| 15730s | are finally able to just kind of like |
| 15732s | outlast |
| 15733s | uh the florida mayhem and their |
| 15735s | composition is |
| 15736s | and now all the pressure on florida how |
| 15738s | would he break back in a few ultimates |
| 15740s | online for philly |
| 15742s | you know |
| 15743s | looks like someone like one tight over |
| 15744s | the top and you're gonna follow this up |
| 15746s | yeah has to be a transcendence here x he |
| 15748s | doesn't care about that of course |
| 15749s | bob in play for m3 so actually doesn't |
| 15752s | want to fully commit now as bella's real |
| 15753s | rolls through and someone is failed bob |
| 15756s | gets the john job done for him and three |
| 15757s | and that's two for him in this fight |
| 15759s | a lot of ultimates had to be spent but |
| 15761s | the mayhem had their fair share of them |
| 15763s | too |
| 15765s | yeah it's uh as soon as someone dies |
| 15767s | that pretty much all falls apart there |
| 15769s | and didn't want to use the overclock he |
| 15771s | actually got fixed pretty low didn't |
| 15772s | want to use the overclock because the |
| 15773s | transcendence was still rolling you pick |
| 15775s | up kills through but just really risky |
| 15778s | so you end up using the sound barrier |
| 15779s | there rally for some over health gonna |
| 15782s | be able to come in for the philly fusion |
| 15783s | is someone gets in there real fast yeah |
| 15786s | big guy but a pulse bomb will send |
| 15788s | someone packing almost as quickly as he |
| 15790s | arrived now that may him are in an |
| 15792s | awkward spot if this gets dragged out |
| 15793s | any further |
| 15795s | they might be in trouble 65 and counting |
| 15797s | that fight will bring philly even with |
| 15799s | the mayhem |
| 15801s | this next fight the most important |
| 15804s | and this is where like you know them |
| 15806s | the moira provides the healing but like |
| 15808s | you know the biotic grenade or a nano |
| 15810s | right if you get hit with a pulse bomb |
| 15812s | for the damage reduction to you know |
| 15814s | trying to live through it |
| 15816s | it's sort of the honor makes a big |
| 15817s | difference right look at zest constantly |
| 15820s | hurrying |
| 15820s | like a hornet |
| 15823s | xc has not used that ultimate yet |
| 15826s | still sitting on it it's time to go |
| 15827s | though overclock fired off him in three |
| 15829s | a little bit lower aim god takes a big |
| 15831s | head he'll charge forward and claim mn3 |
| 15833s | with a headshot that was unnecessary at |
| 15834s | that point fixer also going down but |
| 15837s | he's off the map bella's rear gets rid |
| 15839s | of the hot shot xc but philly don't have |
| 15841s | the players they may try and regroup but |
| 15842s | sisters snuck onto the point now while |
| 15844s | they dive and it comes up behind |
| 15845s | checkmates philly here at 99 here the |
| 15847s | mayhem lose control the round is over |
| 15850s | really not worried about the point get |
| 15852s | clearly a zest backs away they have a |
| 15854s | buffer and they're allowing the mayhem |
| 15855s | to get some percentage but now it's |
| 15857s | trying to hit the point if someone's |
| 15858s | down |
| 15859s | yeah someone pushed up it was mn3 it's a |
| 15861s | headshot hits a hedgehog on a rupaul as |
| 15863s | well this is going to be a flip they |
| 15865s | have lucio in play the mayhem animo can |
| 15867s | dip on and keep that over time going and |
| 15869s | he does so checkmate's forced to recall |
| 15871s | early and the bob is going to be |
| 15872s | deployed here by mn3 someone's on the |
| 15874s | scene but xc goes the other way ships in |
| 15876s | the night they pass each other as |
| 15877s | teammates and it's gonna be the |
| 15879s | philadelphia fusion cleaning up bob |
| 15881s | throwing to the point of rupaul barely |
| 15882s | touches the ground |
| 15884s | philly just bring it back in overtime |
| 15887s | and it wouldn't be a philly game if we |
| 15888s | didn't go all the damn way |
| 15892s | long as you can possibly go |
| 15895s | in the series |
| 15898s | so we will i i do not want to see the |
| 15903s | moira uh lucio combo again yeah i i much |
| 15907s | prefer |
| 15909s | what we're seeing the florida mayhem |
| 15910s | hover with this |
| 15912s | anna and brick setup |
| 15916s | yeah this is uh yeah see someone comes |
| 15918s | in to try and |
| 15919s | get okay uh get a kill there on uh he |
| 15923s | was actually looking for zest there |
| 15924s | because this was quite low didn't have |
| 15925s | recall oh uh but did not expect mn3 to |
| 15929s | be right there there's a lot of |
| 15930s | disruption there bellasreya fixer on the |
| 15932s | brigitte as well coach gunn to knock |
| 15934s | someone back it's hard out there |
| 15936s | for the doom to connect |
| 15938s | and it all comes down to this the final |
| 15940s | round on lee young tower only one of |
| 15942s | these teams can advance in our |
| 15944s | mid-season madness tournament |
| 15947s | you got a god tell him to take the wheel |
| 15952s | they go through this gruelling series |
| 15953s | just to play the loser gladiator spark |
| 15957s | as uh that'll be xe |
| 15960s | opens things up |
| 15961s | on the sojourn with a nice rail shot on |
| 15963s | mn3 is |
| 15965s | i feel like when you have the sojourn in |
| 15966s | this type of scenario and you can play |
| 15968s | more aggressive right i think this is |
| 15970s | where it was really working out well |
| 15972s | for the florida mayhem as fellow trying |
| 15974s | to get on the point contest this will be |
| 15976s | florida able to take it first says a lot |
| 15978s | actually when philadelphia's dps are the |
| 15980s | the first two players would drop there |
| 15981s | and fellas ray is not able to |
| 15983s | interpose himself in between florida and |
| 15985s | the rest of his team |
| 15986s | so a great start for the mayhem here |
| 15989s | bouncing back after a bit of a chaotic |
| 15990s | previous round and now xc can get |
| 15993s | entrenched in a pretty safe spot zest |
| 15995s | really has to go hunting here she wants |
| 15997s | to pressure any of these backliners |
| 15999s | and also like you know rupaul can play |
| 16002s | from a safer position and if you wanted |
| 16004s | to you can follow up |
| 16005s | someone with a biotic grenade like when |
| 16007s | he kind of comes out collapses down on |
| 16009s | some of the players on the other team |
| 16011s | he's so piled down |
| 16013s | someone wanted to call and dive there |
| 16014s | but realize now that's not possible so |
| 16017s | rotates to a defensive position while |
| 16018s | still being able to contest the point |
| 16019s | here |
| 16020s | mayhem gonna try and drag this out |
| 16022s | actually somehow have to get a lie away |
| 16023s | alive rather but bella runs him down |
| 16026s | someone probably realizing now that the |
| 16028s | odds of being a hole here a low so stall |
| 16031s | it is for the mayhem 48 and counting now |
| 16033s | outermost shield |
| 16034s | allowing him to staunchly hold the point |
| 16036s | for a time |
| 16038s | but eventually this will be a philly cat |
| 16041s | that's still you're getting good |
| 16042s | percentage here from this stall from the |
| 16044s | florida man finally goes over |
| 16047s | uh |
| 16047s | not an insignificant amount of time |
| 16049s | there or there |
| 16051s | they're just kind of stalling it out |
| 16052s | philly now gains control yay like you |
| 16054s | mentioned someone was trying to call a |
| 16055s | dive but |
| 16057s | nobody died nobody coming out |
| 16062s | fellas right again |
| 16064s | keeping tabs on check mate the mines |
| 16066s | could be devastating here rallies in |
| 16067s | play always let the mines go good |
| 16070s | heavens |
| 16071s | the mayan i want to shrug them off for |
| 16072s | the most part though animals rally in |
| 16074s | play and aim god is failed to make him |
| 16076s | reach their intended target to someone |
| 16078s | rip some limb from limb it's only m3 |
| 16080s | able to stand up now and that's just not |
| 16082s | going to cut the mustard |
| 16084s | because rupaul backs away he's able to |
| 16086s | hold on to that nano good to see you i |
| 16088s | mean sick play from him but just look at |
| 16090s | how more effective like that on it is |
| 16091s | right about putting shots at distance |
| 16094s | right into someone right some damage |
| 16096s | down into bel belseria yeah you have |
| 16099s | zest coming in right and he gets right |
| 16100s | in his face there's a biotic grenade at |
| 16102s | the ground puts a shot into him like |
| 16104s | uh didn't even have to use the nano |
| 16106s | there i also hit his sleep so just like |
| 16108s | tremendous utility with ana in the |
| 16110s | mixers |
| 16112s | uh i i think if you're a florida mayhem |
| 16114s | fan you'd love to see this more than |
| 16115s | kind of some of the moira comps |
| 16118s | what about safe positioning here rupaul |
| 16120s | still being pressured from this spot |
| 16122s | wait did they hit bob |
| 16124s | unclear if they actually slept him or |
| 16125s | not rupaul's gonna fall to aim god |
| 16127s | either way at long range but it's 90 and |
| 16129s | counting to mayhem though are in trouble |
| 16131s | this transcendence really makes it |
| 16132s | harder to get anything going after |
| 16134s | losing a player so they'll have to |
| 16135s | concede here and |
| 16136s | theoretically not commit any more to |
| 16138s | this fight |
| 16140s | that's totally fine though if you're the |
| 16141s | florida man they had to use a ton of uh |
| 16143s | stuff to get in the door you come back |
| 16145s | you have a pulse bomb which is in you |
| 16147s | know an ability that can just open the |
| 16149s | game up for you just on its own |
| 16151s | you also have the ability to nano |
| 16153s | someone and he can go make a play as we |
| 16155s | see many doomfists do |
| 16157s | you're still in a really good spot here |
| 16158s | if you're the florida mayhem really have |
| 16160s | to hold the point indefinitely if they |
| 16161s | want to advance good start though zest |
| 16164s | tasting initiative and removes arnimo |
| 16167s | from the equation |
| 16168s | from the mayhem don't fancy working |
| 16170s | through that kind of calculus oh wait a |
| 16172s | time i'll check mate looks to flank |
| 16174s | if you lose another player here though |
| 16176s | like that's going to be like a solid 30 |
| 16178s | percent probably |
| 16180s | over to the philly fusion check my pulse |
| 16181s | doesn't just offer that pulse bomb |
| 16184s | nothing for checkmate though |
| 16186s | 76 and counting this he's getting a |
| 16188s | little dicey |
| 16190s | [Music] |
| 16192s | this is where legends are born matt |
| 16195s | mc3 with two crucial headshots now it's |
| 16198s | philly lose control the point though |
| 16199s | they need to keep an eye on that |
| 16202s | big kill from mn3 and he's controlling |
| 16203s | this face now someone it's nobody |
| 16206s | dropped to the ground affiliate now in |
| 16207s | control and this is now |
| 16209s | last ditch territory for the mayhem xc |
| 16212s | switches to the castle you'd better be |
| 16214s | enough |
| 16216s | yeah and you know you uh rupaul downing |
| 16218s | at the end here is he's gonna go to the |
| 16220s | lucio is coming even though he'll be on |
| 16221s | checkmate to get a touch just check my |
| 16223s | recalls here |
| 16225s | where are the rest of them though |
| 16226s | someone needs to make the push and he |
| 16227s | does he's on the point zested with the |
| 16229s | seismic slam dynamite throwing out |
| 16231s | that's a lot of good damage and badass |
| 16232s | three is going to threaten on the |
| 16233s | outside xe marks the spotted mn3 finds |
| 16236s | the treasure it was the frag rally the |
| 16238s | castle he's out of the picture now and |
| 16239s | m3 finds another one but someone's |
| 16241s | keeping his team in it two kills for the |
| 16243s | mayhem's doomfist now and zest has to |
| 16244s | respect |
| 16246s | but there's no chance either of these |
| 16247s | teams are leaving the point now rupaul a |
| 16250s | little off bellas reyes looking okay bob |
| 16252s | sent off the map but that's the pulse to |
| 16253s | end them all sas fights rupaul knows |
| 16256s | that no lucio in the fight at all here |
| 16258s | for the make him an m3 has a safe |
| 16259s | position to play from artemo falls |
| 16262s | bullet between the shoulder blades and |
| 16263s | actually finds one between his eyes |
| 16265s | the philadelphia fusion have done it in |
| 16267s | overtime |
| 16269s | three to two victory and they will |
| 16270s | advance in the mid-season madness |
| 16273s | tournaments |
| 16275s | oh |
| 16276s | some |
| 16277s | absolutely clutch plays there at the end |
| 16281s | from the philly |
| 16282s | [Music] |
| 16284s | as |
| 16285s | you know florida they they they put |
| 16287s | together a really good series |
| 16289s | better than i think a lot of people |
| 16291s | thought but just come up a little bit |
| 16293s | short and |
| 16294s | i think if you're in florida you go back |
| 16296s | look at some of those compositions and |
| 16298s | yeah maybe you can work on some of those |
| 16300s | and |
| 16301s | man just i feel like at the end there |
| 16303s | specifically though |
| 16305s | like zest and mn3 just took over |
| 16308s | like you know when you have those fights |
| 16310s | and they get chaotic and they get |
| 16312s | separated |
| 16313s | and |
| 16314s | you know dps can make an impact find you |
| 16316s | know an opening |
| 16317s | you know mn3 at the end was able to get |
| 16319s | like two three head shots like you know |
| 16321s | zest coming up with pulse bomb kills i i |
| 16323s | think actually probably the biggest kill |
| 16324s | that round like it's gonna sound super |
| 16326s | bizarre is the solo pulse bomb stick on |
| 16329s | the animal yeah uh |
| 16331s | because that gives them about like 20 |
| 16332s | percent extra extra point probably i |
| 16335s | mean that was three that might have been |
| 16336s | i think was that was that rupaul on the |
| 16338s | on the uh lucio actually he switched |
| 16340s | over to try and touch the point at the |
| 16341s | end yeah and we talk about these mn3 |
| 16343s | solo kills incredible that he's able to |
| 16346s | provide so many of those at uh crucial |
| 16347s | moments but zest there in in that in |
| 16350s | that moment as the tracer we talked |
| 16352s | about how leads the league in those solo |
| 16354s | kills per 10 and |
| 16356s | he found it when he truly needed it |
| 16357s | let's talk about our player the match |
| 16358s | here matt uh so many to choose from the |
| 16360s | on the fusion side they're already |
| 16361s | floundered midway through the series but |
| 16362s | they're dps that really carried them |
| 16364s | forward and in those last moments in my |
| 16366s | opinion player of the match is going to |
| 16368s | have to be mn3 what a legendary moment |
| 16371s | there in those final seconds |
| 16373s | kill after kill |
| 16375s | what a way to finish off an incredible |
| 16377s | series of overwatch |
| 16379s | and it's not even just the |
| 16381s | like first picks from mn3 that are like |
| 16384s | super impressive it's you know |
| 16386s | philadelphia fusion starting off a fight |
| 16387s | down a player and then he just like |
| 16388s | comes up with three uh and you know just |
| 16390s | landing these headshots out of nowhere |
| 16392s | especially at the end there on lichen |
| 16394s | tower but |
| 16395s | uh him and zest is a combo and you got |
| 16398s | zest rolling on the tracer and this |
| 16400s | level of pressure and you know hit scan |
| 16403s | dominance back there |
| 16404s | uh you get the rest of the team kind of |
| 16406s | right |
| 16407s | they're gonna be a tough out for anybody |
| 16409s | uh i mean the skill of mn3 and zes is |
| 16412s | crazy oh yeah it is ridiculous i mean |
| 16415s | zest operating is the solo killer that |
| 16417s | people were hoping that decay could kind |
| 16419s | of be right on that justice team and |
| 16420s | everyone sort of hailed him as like that |
| 16422s | an individual that could really turn the |
| 16423s | game on its head but the best part for |
| 16425s | zest is that he sat next to this guy uh |
| 16427s | mn3 who really of the course this match |
| 16429s | was was great you know we talked about |
| 16431s | uh the ash duel he was taking with xc |
| 16433s | early in the series he didn't look good |
| 16434s | for him when it moved to sojourn he sean |
| 16437s | the widowmaker matchup on gibraltar a |
| 16439s | tough one for him but it was really had |
| 16441s | a lot to do with the map and how good |
| 16442s | someone was at controlling those spaces |
| 16445s | but he gets his revenge he gets his come |
| 16447s | up it's in that final map |
| 16449s | and his ash is the one that shines |
| 16450s | brightest philadelphia fusion always |
| 16452s | know how to make it exciting and they |
| 16454s | set themselves a date with the loser of |
| 16456s | the hung show spark in los angeles |
| 16458s | gladiators there's more incredible games |
| 16460s | on the way not only for the fusion but |
| 16462s | for us tonight we're already halfway |
| 16464s | through we're gonna go to a break i'm |
| 16466s | going to wait till i get off cam to you |

| 16734s | hey everyone welcome back to watchpoint |
| 16737s | that was oh |
| 16739s | my god |
| 16742s | that was the most stressful game or most |
| 16745s | stressful series that we've seen this |
| 16747s | entire week i think all of us were just |
| 16749s | kind of at the edge of our seat just |
| 16750s | going like oh my gosh there's no way |
| 16752s | they take this can they take this can |
| 16754s | they take this mn3 comes in at the end |
| 16755s | and we're all just oh uh it was just too |
| 16758s | much i like i i was like yelling because |
| 16760s | i'm with i'm on the philadelphia fusion |
| 16761s | train because you brought me here it's |
| 16763s | awful here it's awfully it's stressful i |
| 16766s | we're like yelling at zest and mn3 to |
| 16768s | kill more people you know we have we |
| 16771s | have xc just going like crazy and just |
| 16773s | popping heads i don't know that was just |
| 16775s | it was just too much that was the |
| 16776s | epitome of the awards league yeah just |
| 16779s | like fifth map |
| 16780s | last round last fight and just like two |
| 16783s | three people struggling on the point |
| 16785s | like even seth's point of view like i |
| 16787s | understand that he's like a professional |
| 16789s | player but he looked lost like in the |
| 16792s | moment and i don't blame him i mean that |
| 16794s | was just craziness uh |
| 16796s | absolute you know it was a barn burner |
| 16798s | gigabyte whatever you have uh amazing |
| 16801s | match and here's the uh the final |
| 16802s | moments you're leaving tower oh god oh |
| 16805s | man three he's so talented and handsome |
| 16808s | i it's it's just it's crazy like how |
| 16810s | many shots he hits like he kills xe gets |
| 16813s | the double tap in there in there and |
| 16815s | then you have zest this is when johnny's |
| 16816s | like he's lost like there's just so much |
| 16818s | going on in this position |
| 16821s | oh my god there was so many clutch plays |
| 16825s | that came out there for philadelphia |
| 16827s | fusion even in those final minutes where |
| 16829s | florida was able to recap the point and |
| 16832s | then fusion had to get back on because |
| 16834s | there wasn't a single second to lose |
| 16836s | with that overtime |
| 16837s | sorry johnny like i was like they did it |
| 16839s | and they were like wait philly had the |
| 16841s | point for the last 10 seconds like oh no |
| 16843s | i got the rally lucio was there as well |
| 16846s | like florida mayhem they had 99 on like |
| 16849s | all three points i believe like they |
| 16851s | were one fight away on so many different |
| 16853s | times right so |
| 16854s | i mean that would |
| 16856s | literally the wire |
| 16858s | the thinnest wire possible |
| 16861s | i mean yes it we went all the way to map |
| 16863s | five and it was well played on both |
| 16865s | sides otherwise we wouldn't have had you |
| 16866s | know this long and this intense of a |
| 16869s | final match so i mean just to speak to |
| 16872s | florida yeah yeah i mean in many ways |
| 16875s | they you know they won map one so they |
| 16876s | came out uh on top here and sir my jet |
| 16878s | had an incredible zenyatta performance |
| 16880s | here you know ended the map with the |
| 16882s | cendiff in the uh in the all chat you |
| 16885s | love to see that um but again like so |
| 16887s | many people for the florida mayhem |
| 16889s | turned up to this one so much out here |
| 16890s | on the senora but also checkmate has had |
| 16893s | a really good mid-season madness |
| 16896s | tournament um i think checkmate has |
| 16898s | played some of the best overwatch she |
| 16899s | ever has in this very tournament xc as |
| 16902s | well had a reputation for being this |
| 16904s | elite hitscan player when he was on the |
| 16906s | dallas fuel of course and before that um |
| 16908s | and he he fired on all senators too so |
| 16911s | this was |
| 16912s | the ending of this match was the |
| 16914s | culmination of two teams being |
| 16916s | incredibly competitive over the course |
| 16918s | of five maps and so i'm just really |
| 16919s | grateful for the from am they go out |
| 16921s | here in the losers bracket but they put |
| 16923s | up one hell of a performance and they |
| 16925s | should be really proud of that |
| 16926s | performance yeah but you know i i've had |
| 16928s | enough of being nicer philadelphia |
| 16930s | fusion right now because yes they got |
| 16932s | over the line yes they got there but one |
| 16934s | of the biggest issues for them as a team |
| 16936s | is they're relying too much on |
| 16938s | individual brilliant they do they're not |
| 16939s | they're not playing as a team they're |
| 16941s | not having this massive synergy and you |
| 16943s | saw that issue become |
| 16945s | massively highlighted here on this watch |
| 16946s | point gibraltar where when bell's rears |
| 16949s | just can't get any traction zest is |
| 16950s | being hunted down mn3 has someone on him |
| 16953s | at all times there's just nothing |
| 16954s | happening for them at any moment and |
| 16956s | then like even as you go further into |
| 16958s | the maps like obviously they had a great |
| 16960s | new queen street but even there on that |
| 16962s | lee zhang tower that wasn't great |
| 16964s | teamwork that really got over the line |
| 16966s | that was zest and mn3 just going |
| 16969s | absolutely crazy so |
| 16971s | looking forward to them as a team |
| 16973s | because they do have somewhere to go |
| 16974s | they have to play the loser of spark and |
| 16976s | the gladiators individual brilliance |
| 16978s | will not get them across the line they |
| 16980s | need to find some form of coordination |
| 16982s | and synergy if they are going to beat a |
| 16984s | great team like them so if i was to ask |
| 16986s | you to put on your coach custa hat for a |
| 16988s | second and sit down with the fusion what |
| 16990s | would you tell them how would you |
| 16992s | inspire uh teamwork rather than just |
| 16994s | waiting for mn3 or zest to pop off one |
| 16996s | of the big issues that i think i'm |
| 16998s | seeing from them is moving aimgod and |
| 17000s | fixer around the map without losing them |
| 17002s | because it feels like aim god fixer and |
| 17004s | mn3 sometimes are on different pages and |
| 17007s | bella's rear and zest need to start |
| 17009s | linking up a little bit more because it |
| 17010s | feels like at times they're going in |
| 17012s | individually and they're just unable to |
| 17015s | execute as a unit right and that's what |
| 17017s | makes them rely on individual brilliance |
| 17019s | especially in the back line like fixer |
| 17021s | didn't have a great series here dying |
| 17022s | first a lot of the times that leaves aim |
| 17024s | got exposed so just tidying up some of |
| 17027s | those bolts getting that synergy going a |
| 17028s | little bit better and they can go far |
| 17030s | because the gameplay is there just not |
| 17032s | as a team listen speaking of synergy all |
| 17034s | three of us on the desk found that |
| 17036s | synergy because we all predicted fusion |
| 17038s | to take the win but johnny extra points |
| 17040s | to you because you called the 3-2 that's |
| 17042s | right called the 3-2 |
| 17044s | and look i'm just saying i predicted the |
| 17046s | atlanta ring i put it to the 3-2 |
| 17049s | and i predict the heinz part |
| 17056s | we're going to talk about that in just a |
| 17058s | second but the first thing that we need |
| 17059s | to do is look at our updated lower |
| 17061s | brackets again congratulations to the |
| 17063s | fusion for moving on in that lower |
| 17066s | bracket that we see uh the winner |
| 17068s | they will be playing the winner of as we |
| 17071s | said match 16 where is it sorry the |
| 17073s | loser yeah it's in the upper bracket |
| 17075s | yeah i'm lost sometimes you know there's |
| 17076s | so many brackets around here but yes |
| 17078s | this is the |
| 17079s | the fusion are not winners uh obviously |
| 17081s | you know what they're winners in my eyes |
| 17083s | right now |
| 17086s | don't take this away from me we don't |
| 17088s | know how long it will last |
| 17091s | but i think that they are going to go |
| 17094s | the distance but yes they are going to |
| 17095s | play the losers of this next match which |
| 17097s | is of course the spark versus the |
| 17099s | gladiators i know you two started |
| 17101s | getting into it so one of you want to |
| 17103s | start well i want to hear that hongdro |
| 17105s | spark hopium first before i come in with |
| 17107s | the gladiators kicking down the door |
| 17109s | you're calling this hopium is the |
| 17111s | definition of hoyp like like it's just |
| 17113s | some gas just evaporating within the air |
| 17116s | or no what no this is substantiated all |
| 17120s | right this is substantiated analysis and |
| 17123s | to counter my own very argument i'm |
| 17125s | going to bring up a stat card that makes |
| 17126s | me look ridiculous and it's kempster |
| 17128s | versus alfie on the tracer where kevster |
| 17131s | of course he's only played 38 minutes so |
| 17134s | far this tournament you know it was a |
| 17136s | pretty dominant performance and 68 |
| 17138s | minutes for alpha who's obviously played |
| 17139s | a bit more some more matches here but |
| 17141s | you can see the stats yourself alfie |
| 17143s | comes down on top when it comes to the |
| 17144s | hero damage and the pulse bomb kills per |
| 17145s | 10 minutes but kevster's final blows |
| 17148s | reduce this i i think this is the match |
| 17150s | up to watch for both teams here really |
| 17152s | because i think when it comes to you |
| 17153s | know shy of course someone we talked |
| 17154s | about a lot i think he'll be the best |
| 17156s | soldier and player you compare it to |
| 17158s | potiphan but kevster has been such a |
| 17160s | dominant force of nature and no one has |
| 17163s | really been able to seemingly stop him |
| 17165s | so alfie i think he's like great |
| 17167s | tournament so far alfie another player |
| 17169s | who's playing some of the best of what |
| 17170s | she's ever done and if anyone's going to |
| 17172s | bring it to kepster it could be alpha yi |
| 17174s | so that's a head to head i'm watching in |
| 17176s | this match but for me it's not yes alpha |
| 17178s | yi and cancer are important but it's the |
| 17180s | they're partners in crime and that's the |
| 17182s | main tanks and that's the person i'm |
| 17183s | looking at for the gladiators and that's |
| 17185s | where i think the major differential is |
| 17186s | going to come in rainer has been a joke |
| 17189s | jack of all trades maintain coming in |
| 17191s | for this league he has been able to play |
| 17193s | everything especially on that doomfist |
| 17195s | and when he synergizes the dive with |
| 17196s | kevster that seems to be that next level |
| 17198s | that the gladiators have been at and i |
| 17200s | just don't see the spark being able to |
| 17202s | hit that yes they have the great hitscan |
| 17204s | in shai who does pop off consistently |
| 17206s | but for me overall the gladiators are |
| 17209s | just a better team and we haven't even |
| 17211s | talked about shoe in the back line we |
| 17214s | got funny astro to come play that lucio |
| 17216s | super rich in my teacup all right all |
| 17218s | right |
| 17220s | that's where the opium's in it's in that |
| 17221s | teacup right now chrysanthemum hopium |
| 17224s | that's actually the main ingredient but |
| 17226s | honestly uh reiner kind of won my heart |
| 17228s | over with his trash talk that we had |
| 17230s | earlier in the week but i want to keep |
| 17232s | the ball rolling okay i really wanted to |
| 17234s | make a hamster joke there but you're not |
| 17235s | wearing the lindsay anymore all right |
| 17237s | i'm going to keep the prediction ball |
| 17239s | rolling i want to get your match |
| 17240s | prediction how do we think that this is |
| 17242s | going to go |
| 17243s | i'm going to go gladiators 3-1 3-1 for |
| 17246s | gladiators |
| 17247s | all right |
| 17248s | so you think they'll win on push that's |
| 17250s | a pretty good bet right there yeah um |
| 17253s | the dive is good look i i respect the |
| 17255s | alec letters i do okay so i'll say i'll |
| 17257s | have to say three two hunch of spark all |
| 17259s | right |
| 17260s | yeah we're going the distance we're |
| 17261s | going to control once more uh and it's |
| 17264s | gonna be a great series you know more |
| 17266s | giga bangers we all want more giga |
| 17267s | bangers yeah so bring it up here for the |
| 17269s | long haul we're coming to midnight again |
| 17271s | oh you know but hear me out hear me out |
| 17273s | spicy three oh gladiator oh |
| 17276s | three the disney no that is that is |
| 17278s | baseless all right taking my entire |
| 17282s | overwatch league career on this |
| 17284s | prediction okay and there's only one way |
| 17286s | to find out if me obvi will be |
| 17288s | successful in all my future predictions |
| 17290s | oh wait i already messed up my first one |
| 17291s | today dang it jake |
| 17294s | all right well we have to take a quick |
| 17295s | break but stick around because when we |
| 17296s | get back we are going to see that match |
| 17298s | between the spark and the gladiators |

| 17537s | so |
| 17545s | and welcome back it is time to get into |
| 17547s | our last two matches of the evening i'm |
| 17549s | achilles once more joined by avril we'll |
| 17551s | be guiding you guys through the rest of |
| 17553s | the action here today we'll be your |
| 17555s | ushers please take your seats and let |
| 17557s | battle commence once more it's gonna be |
| 17558s | the hangzhou spark going up against the |
| 17560s | la gladiators let's see who is gonna be |
| 17563s | moving forward |
| 17565s | officially in the top six now with our |
| 17567s | upper bracket teams here these are the |
| 17569s | top four as well uh still a couple lives |
| 17571s | to play through but my goodness we're |
| 17573s | finally getting into what i truly |
| 17574s | believe is like you know this is top |
| 17576s | tier n a versus top tier a pack it's not |
| 17578s | going to be salt danish but i think |
| 17580s | hondro spark the way they defeated seoul |
| 17582s | just not even that long but the 3-0 |
| 17584s | anyway this is looking like one of the |
| 17585s | top teams now so pink versus purple this |
| 17588s | is gonna be epic |
| 17589s | it absolutely could be to see what |
| 17591s | happens once we get into it you know |
| 17592s | what the rosters and whatnot are going |
| 17593s | to look like but |
| 17595s | uh a hell of a lot of potential here for |
| 17596s | some showdowns obviously you know alfie |
| 17598s | looking incredible patty pan here in his |
| 17600s | first season of the overwatch league as |
| 17601s | well also looking utterly impeccable so |
| 17603s | those two clashing is a very exciting |
| 17606s | prospect shy as well and hit scan can |
| 17608s | have some stiff competition there from |
| 17610s | the side of the gladiators we'll see if |
| 17611s | that comes to fruition but here's our |
| 17613s | starting five for the side of the |
| 17614s | hangzhou spark while we did see them |
| 17616s | experiment a little bit with the roster |
| 17618s | at the end of the qualifiers widely have |
| 17620s | been sticking to this core right here |
| 17623s | no surprises i mean you're probably not |
| 17625s | going to see goose way until we get to |
| 17626s | an escort type map maybe something like |
| 17627s | a gibraltar where it's very winston |
| 17629s | focused but |
| 17631s | even without the crucial i think |
| 17632s | bernard's just been fantastic so far |
| 17634s | this tournament cycle i mean he's really |
| 17635s | impressed this was a play that last year |
| 17637s | people were really down about but |
| 17639s | currently spark are having their best |
| 17641s | ever season in my personal opinion led |
| 17644s | mostly by this dps like shy and alfie |
| 17646s | alfie probably one of the most |
| 17648s | overlooked rookies coming in there was |
| 17649s | some notable hype surrounding guys like |
| 17651s | proper i mean that's deserved and |
| 17653s | respected um but alpha yi has kind of |
| 17656s | swept the table and he's really come |
| 17658s | into his own he |
| 17659s | kind of |
| 17660s | got a very deserved play of the match |
| 17662s | versus sol dynasty as well i mean this |
| 17663s | guy has been tearing things up on the |
| 17665s | tracer we've also seen him on the genji |
| 17666s | his echoes up there as well sharks |
| 17668s | looking like one of the best hit scans |
| 17669s | once more his trojan is right at the top |
| 17672s | of my list |
| 17673s | yeah way up there making a name for |
| 17676s | himself for sure on that newest pick but |
| 17678s | here is the starting five for the side |
| 17680s | of the gladiators kevster patty pan |
| 17682s | reiner shoe and skewed try to maintain |
| 17686s | some n a dominance and see if they can |
| 17688s | take down the hangzhou spark |
| 17690s | and rhino has been super impressive on |
| 17692s | this tank position as well you know i |
| 17693s | think the disc is starting to talk about |
| 17695s | this kind of new term the jolt right |
| 17696s | there |
| 17698s | what is it again i think hawk even came |
| 17700s | up with it maybe but uh jack of all |
| 17702s | trades kind of tank we're starting to |
| 17703s | get in there you still need to see you |
| 17705s | know before hawk he's still trying to |
| 17707s | move into those main tanks for reiner as |
| 17708s | well |
| 17709s | will be a question mark in terms of |
| 17710s | whether he ends up playing any sort of |
| 17712s | off tanks this is not really an off-tank |
| 17713s | meta so we're not releasing zarya yet um |
| 17715s | only kalu seems to be running diva we'll |
| 17717s | get into that in the future match but |
| 17719s | for now you know expecting typical ball |
| 17722s | doom winston kind of stuff coming |
| 17723s | through from rhino the interesting pick |
| 17725s | is actually going to be that skewed |
| 17726s | starts over funny astro on our opening |
| 17728s | map or for the control typically we have |
| 17730s | seen a lot of funny astro uh but i think |
| 17733s | those would normally be you know that |
| 17734s | would be your roster choice if you're |
| 17736s | going to something more like a lee jung |
| 17737s | tower we're about to head into oasis |
| 17739s | here which is the gladiators map pick so |
| 17741s | they're going to be looking at something |
| 17742s | more along the lines of a skewed brig |
| 17745s | with shoes in all the double flex |
| 17747s | support as well both really strong |
| 17748s | options for glads in this map |
| 17752s | see if they can get a win here a lot of |
| 17754s | teams been taking us to oasis as their |
| 17756s | map picked to begin and have not been |
| 17757s | able to put up the numbers so will that |
| 17760s | happen once more or can the gladiators |
| 17763s | close it out cleanly start things off |
| 17765s | the right foot forward and get the w we |
| 17767s | are about to find out as we are moments |
| 17769s | away from jumping into the action and |
| 17771s | carrying out this incredible week of |
| 17774s | games |
| 17776s | and these two teams you know we talked |
| 17778s | about rare matchups yesterday |
| 17780s | when the atlanta ring took on the salt |
| 17782s | dynasty this is a pretty rare one here |
| 17784s | as well only three times the ali |
| 17786s | gladiators have met with the hangzhou |
| 17788s | spark and tell you what they haven't |
| 17789s | seen each other in three years the last |
| 17792s | matchup between la and hangzhou was in |
| 17794s | 2019 for the playoffs so it's been a lot |
| 17798s | of years yeah but these two squads have |
| 17800s | not met brand new rosters here i don't |
| 17802s | even think there's a single returning |
| 17803s | player from either side from that 2019 |
| 17806s | squad as well so |
| 17808s | franchises squaring up here pink versus |
| 17811s | purple map number one shred on gardens |
| 17815s | there we are gates opening up and hey |
| 17817s | look at that police pause immediately |
| 17819s | into the chat |
| 17821s | oh this is just what happens when i uh |
| 17823s | show up to cast i suppose but hopefully |
| 17824s | it's gonna be a quick issue here for the |
| 17826s | side of the gladiators to get dealt with |
| 17828s | obviously having those admins right |
| 17830s | there on standby in venue is going to |
| 17832s | make for a pretty i thought uh |
| 17835s | i thought you started you know shoving |
| 17836s | some of that curse over towards jaws and |
| 17838s | necro they obviously had that long pause |
| 17840s | of toronto and shanghai |
| 17842s | on the uh i think was the first day |
| 17843s | mildly contagious |
| 17846s | it is it is |
| 17847s | but let's talk about a little since we |
| 17849s | do have opening line |
| 17851s | rather line up so we have the opening |
| 17853s | compositions as well |
| 17854s | uh which i'll go through very briefly i |
| 17856s | don't know if anyone caught that but it |
| 17857s | was going to be the main difference is |
| 17858s | going to be burner on the ball versus |
| 17860s | rhino on the doom so |
| 17862s | not super unexpected from either side |
| 17864s | super rich brig irony zen shu coming |
| 17866s | through on the back skewed on the brakes |
| 17867s | so scooter is going to be playing the |
| 17868s | brig first and foremost with the bat |
| 17871s | option for shoe he'll he might consider |
| 17873s | going towards the anna after he sees the |
| 17875s | ball here i think the anna's gonna have |
| 17877s | a lot more defensive utility to mis |
| 17880s | display spurners born also support |
| 17881s | reiner so that might be something that |
| 17883s | the gladiators look towards uh if they |
| 17885s | get a reset reiner just checking if his |
| 17887s | camera is working padded pan and shy |
| 17888s | coming through on the surgeon as |
| 17890s | expected alpha yi versus kefster on the |
| 17892s | tracer now alfie took down profit |
| 17894s | kevster is another one of those top tier |
| 17896s | tracer players that alfie will be tested |
| 17898s | again now |
| 17900s | well we'll see how these match up and |
| 17902s | whether or not there's adjustments that |
| 17903s | you're talking about you know the ana |
| 17904s | swap perhaps if that does come through |
| 17906s | if the gladiators are still gonna at |
| 17908s | least give it a fight or two and see how |
| 17910s | uh it goes piloting this comp but |
| 17912s | we'll have to just wait and see has been |
| 17914s | a big amount of uh trash talk coming out |
| 17917s | from the side of the gladiators runner |
| 17918s | in particular uh you know really trying |
| 17921s | to make a name for himself and uh say |
| 17923s | yeah i am you know one of the best if |
| 17925s | not the best tank in the league right |
| 17926s | now and it's also you know rookie season |
| 17929s | yada yada uh has been looking utterly |
| 17931s | incredible for the squad |
| 17934s | well you know he |
| 17936s | wants to face up against well there's |
| 17937s | there's been a bit of the back and forth |
| 17939s | between him and fate sort of from afar |
| 17940s | via different interviews |
| 17942s | uh smurf's out of the picture now so you |
| 17944s | know currently there's burn on screen |
| 17946s | gucci maybe a little bit later on which |
| 17947s | would be a fantastic matchup as far as |
| 17949s | winston's go because we're looking at a |
| 17950s | situation where you know right as a |
| 17953s | rookie gooshway is i think the origin of |
| 17956s | the primal blade that he |
| 17958s | he is like the first person that really |
| 17960s | displayed the primal play back in 2018 |
| 17962s | world cup i believe it was so that'll be |
| 17963s | a big test for rhino you're seeing stats |
| 17965s | right now right up there in terms of |
| 17967s | doomfist he's been one of the top |
| 17968s | doomfist players uh certainly you know |
| 17970s | from the na side of things he kind of |
| 17973s | pioneered that alongside dante alongside |
| 17975s | hawke those are probably my top three uh |
| 17977s | so you know ryden has been fantastic |
| 17979s | throughout and i'll be interested to see |
| 17981s | if we go to circuit royale as well |
| 17983s | because that's the one map that space |
| 17984s | does come in for to play that sigma |
| 17987s | bernard's obviously going to be |
| 17988s | comfortable with that as well so uh |
| 17990s | that'll be an interesting pick that we |
| 17991s | can sort of look into later on i'm sure |
| 17994s | that ons would love to get sniping m |
| 17995s | that actually might end up being a |
| 17996s | weakness for 100 spark they didn't look |
| 17998s | very comfortable with that uh matchup |
| 18000s | between shy and mn3 look shy's been |
| 18002s | dominating on the sojourn but |
| 18004s | his widow has maybe taken a bit of a hit |
| 18006s | negatively in a recent game so that |
| 18007s | might be one area that glides if we get |
| 18009s | you know once we get to map three |
| 18011s | depending who gets the pick circuit is |
| 18013s | one i'm looking forward to |
| 18014s | well looks like everything should be |
| 18016s | good to go the ready checks coming out |
| 18018s | in the chat we should be underway once |
| 18021s | more and we can finally see these teams |
| 18023s | clash and see who's going to be able to |
| 18024s | draw first blood get that initial lock |
| 18026s | down here on guard in an oasis i'm not |
| 18029s | sure exactly what the issue was but it |
| 18030s | seems like it's all taken care of and |
| 18031s | she was ready to party |
| 18034s | as always a little bit more time to |
| 18036s | think about where things are going to go |
| 18038s | all right well back into action pretty |
| 18040s | much you'll notice that burner is taking |
| 18042s | control of mega so it seems like hunter |
| 18044s | spark will not be coming through from |
| 18046s | the side rooms playing straight from |
| 18047s | main gladiators touch point first 15 |
| 18049s | seconds to unlock |
| 18053s | all right slow and steady gladiators the |
| 18055s | inside track now it's going to be |
| 18057s | occupying the point they say yep we're |
| 18058s | more than happy to have the hunger spot |
| 18060s | captain come to |
| 18061s | us building up for a rail |
| 18064s | looking for a decent enough target |
| 18066s | trying to swing around the corner and |
| 18067s | there you go he finds shot and catches |
| 18068s | him completely off guard irony as well |
| 18070s | going to be taken down she ends up |
| 18071s | getting traded bernard picking that one |
| 18073s | up trying to keep the honking spark in |
| 18074s | the fight but with super rich out |
| 18076s | there's no supports here for the side of |
| 18077s | the hunger spark gonna have to concede |
| 18079s | this as the cap is there and gladiators |
| 18081s | are starting to pick up |
| 18083s | yeah first on the cab first on the kill |
| 18085s | feed as well there great pick from paddy |
| 18087s | pan on towards shy that's the majority |
| 18088s | of the damage going from the hangzhou |
| 18090s | spark i believe they did get one trait |
| 18092s | in there with shoe going down but |
| 18093s | otherwise guys with their presence |
| 18095s | already being on the cat looking very |
| 18097s | fast picking on the second fight shy |
| 18099s | response to padding the rail not quite |
| 18101s | connecting but still does a good amount |
| 18102s | of damage there on to skewed and alpha y |
| 18105s | manages to get on top of them they find |
| 18106s | the kill they answer back shoot falling |
| 18107s | lower and lower the immortality field |
| 18109s | already burned and cleaned up it's a |
| 18111s | quick little turnaround here for the |
| 18112s | side of the hangzhou spark 32 set up for |
| 18114s | the gladiators as they take control |
| 18117s | clean as well don't think anybody from |
| 18119s | spark died this look at the full setup |
| 18120s | now yeah |
| 18122s | first ultimate stunt to come online it's |
| 18123s | both tracer players probably shouldn't |
| 18124s | be too much of a surprise there kepster |
| 18126s | versus alfie a matchup that we've been |
| 18128s | really looking forward to again it's the |
| 18130s | brand new rookie of alfie that's been an |
| 18132s | absolute terrorist so far it's not up |
| 18134s | against a player that is capable of |
| 18136s | being a role star and kept saying |
| 18137s | hiccups pulse lands onto irony gets that |
| 18140s | one it's a rerouting there for alpha he |
| 18142s | wanted to do pretty much the same exact |
| 18143s | thing there's they were fumbling through |
| 18145s | the choke managed to make it happen jump |
| 18147s | in shine now going to be taken down to |
| 18148s | trade out on the sojourn this is still |
| 18150s | going to be oh i was going to say it two |
| 18151s | for one but now it's a two for two |
| 18152s | overall is the spark still in control of |
| 18154s | the flip getting ready to come through |
| 18156s | bernard scratching across the point |
| 18157s | keeps the contest for a little bit |
| 18158s | longer super rich taking so much damage |
| 18161s | point blank there from kepster they |
| 18162s | managed to find the final blow in the |
| 18164s | end bernard trying to escape grabs the |
| 18165s | mega pack and use the ball lower and |
| 18167s | lower the orb of harmony steadily |
| 18168s | putting some healing down onto the |
| 18170s | wrecking ball and he will be able to |
| 18171s | make it out with his life intact but the |
| 18172s | point has to be conceded gladiators now |
| 18174s | back in control getting ready to retake |
| 18176s | a lead |
| 18178s | no super rich their brilliant sleep |
| 18179s | coming through or just you know maybe |
| 18181s | start or something oh he went down into |
| 18183s | the case and we'll burn out low hp also |
| 18185s | can't really go in there it's shy once |
| 18186s | again though opening things up on the |
| 18187s | rail get off the batting |
| 18189s | he's the one who's walking into the |
| 18190s | point first before pretty much anybody |
| 18192s | else and he finds these eliminations |
| 18194s | driving to the back there that's right |
| 18195s | from ryder looking to take this a little |
| 18197s | bit more aggressively |
| 18199s | gives him a little bit of green hp |
| 18200s | overclock now out though and reiner ends |
| 18202s | up diving into the minefield nicely set |
| 18204s | up there from bernard they get the |
| 18205s | punish to get the kill onto the enemy |
| 18206s | tank how do you practice managing to |
| 18208s | find alfie bernard take it down by a |
| 18209s | pulse definitely still fightable here |
| 18211s | for the side of the gladiators |
| 18213s | they look to maintain control but the |
| 18215s | spark have cleared them off the point |
| 18217s | just enough to be able to get that put |
| 18218s | back into their favor |
| 18219s | a little bit of fire there from the side |
| 18220s | of irony going lower lower down to about |
| 18222s | half hp the rally coming oh dude however |
| 18224s | helping to keep alive it's shy once more |
| 18226s | finds paddy pan in the head the rail |
| 18228s | accuracy from shy continuing to look |
| 18230s | utterly phenomenal gets that punish and |
| 18232s | the spark will be able to win out the |
| 18233s | extended fight |
| 18235s | super important picks coming through now |
| 18237s | big clean up here as well i'll just |
| 18238s | fight to be able to overtake the 72 |
| 18240s | percent in just a few moments |
| 18242s | late stag is always good for the hunger |
| 18244s | spy planet is trying to get their own |
| 18246s | trades in but at this point they just |
| 18247s | need to reset they need to get some |
| 18248s | respawns in |
| 18250s | kevstep that was his first death by the |
| 18251s | way losing out too shy so hadn't |
| 18253s | actually died before then he spoke about |
| 18255s | shy israel gone actually was 75 percent |
| 18257s | in that previous fight has killed powder |
| 18259s | pen a number of times now gladiators |
| 18261s | looking to come in for this 99 contested |
| 18264s | hunger spark |
| 18267s | keeping tabs on the members of the |
| 18268s | gladiators they spawn capsule reiner |
| 18270s | diving forward falls a little bit low |
| 18271s | the healing comes pumping through to |
| 18272s | keep them alive |
| 18274s | shoot tries to get that next window |
| 18276s | online |
| 18277s | pulse bomb |
| 18278s | held by both the tracers we'll see if |
| 18280s | they can find any primary targets trying |
| 18282s | to open things up and ryan are now stuck |
| 18283s | in the corner of the immortality field |
| 18284s | gonna be cleared out he tries to make |
| 18285s | his exit the healing comes in he will be |
| 18287s | able to stay alive for a little bit |
| 18289s | longer pulse pump goes out gets the |
| 18290s | stick i believe in a skewed shield so it |
| 18292s | doesn't find an elimination but as they |
| 18293s | push up onto the high ground shy helps |
| 18295s | set up the kill on a shoe they find the |
| 18296s | kill paddy band gonna be taken down as |
| 18298s | well two for one now but this time the |
| 18299s | hong kong spark as he looked to close |
| 18300s | this out and it's looking damn good for |
| 18302s | him hopefully he finds one the brakes |
| 18304s | both gone on either side of the ot |
| 18306s | bleeds away they managed to get a touch |
| 18307s | back through for just a brief moment but |
| 18309s | reiner cannot stay here he puts the |
| 18311s | fists up trying to buy some space kevin |
| 18313s | kepster rather dashes out |
| 18315s | every time starts plummeting once more |
| 18317s | now the transcendence popped by irony |
| 18319s | it's trying to keep everybody else alive |
| 18321s | pull back away from the floor again |
| 18322s | moment the minefield's gonna be dropped |
| 18323s | in as you say 5v5 but it's quickly |
| 18326s | taken right back into the hands of the |
| 18327s | hangzhou spark in their favors the |
| 18328s | minefield clears out one shy gets you |
| 18331s | and there you go the ot bleeds away at |
| 18333s | long last 172 percent as spark will take |
| 18335s | garden |
| 18338s | a really long final contest they're |
| 18339s | coming on through ellie glady is doing |
| 18341s | their best to survive and eyes on rhino |
| 18343s | there who actually did live for an |
| 18344s | extremely long time great healing coming |
| 18346s | through from the supports of the la |
| 18348s | gladiators but speaking of which shoe |
| 18350s | tries to go for a window on high ground |
| 18352s | which usually can be quite successful |
| 18354s | shy they're sliding directly in taking |
| 18356s | down shoot denying any sort of value |
| 18358s | that the window could have had |
| 18359s | and even though they do kill shai with |
| 18362s | skewed down no supports gladiators can |
| 18364s | only just try and have reiner still |
| 18365s | touch the point a couple times allows |
| 18367s | you to come back onto lucio continue the |
| 18369s | touch the end of the fight and the final |
| 18371s | completion of the round comes through |
| 18373s | for the fact that shai did actually have |
| 18374s | an overclock comes back and there's |
| 18375s | enough time for sparks to be able to |
| 18377s | wait for as well while holding the point |
| 18379s | the overclock's gonna be enough so |
| 18380s | moving on to the next round now shy with |
| 18382s | the ash and this is gonna be the apac |
| 18384s | special |
| 18385s | the roadhog control |
| 18386s | health on the mega pack side and the |
| 18388s | roadhog like you sort of mentioned here |
| 18390s | is going to be trying it to be a direct |
| 18391s | counter to burn osmol |
| 18393s | see what he can get done already taking |
| 18395s | quite a hefty chunk of damage obviously |
| 18397s | don't mind it too too much as a roadhog |
| 18399s | because as long as you're not dead you |
| 18401s | can take a breather get a good amount of |
| 18402s | charge or just let those orbs of harmony |
| 18404s | sit on you to really build up towards |
| 18405s | the transcendence for skewed hook not |
| 18407s | going to connect super rich has the |
| 18408s | shield raised keeps himself protected |
| 18410s | i'll be already though finding the first |
| 18412s | kill gladiators they might get the first |
| 18414s | cap but could quickly go back over into |
| 18416s | the hands of the hangzhou spark here and |
| 18418s | skewed waits to respawn reiner this cool |
| 18420s | door about onto him |
| 18422s | down a little bit lower now just |
| 18423s | currently hiding up the center of the |
| 18424s | point picks up three they're trying to |
| 18426s | get himself up back up actually shy |
| 18428s | gonna be taken down as he swings the |
| 18429s | corner ryder finds the elimination but |
| 18430s | irony gets some revenge very quickly |
| 18432s | thereafter now she's gonna be dead so |
| 18434s | ask skewed looks to rejoin the fight his |
| 18436s | cohort in support ends up falling i'm |
| 18439s | just spark should be able to convert |
| 18440s | this into a point flip but it hasn't |
| 18441s | happened yet |
| 18443s | well that's the thing right and |
| 18444s | gladiators despite losing this fight |
| 18446s | actually have the point control first |
| 18447s | it's because they are playing the road |
| 18448s | hog spark have to dance around and they |
| 18450s | have to tiptoe they don't want to fight |
| 18451s | rapidly into the hog rider swapping off |
| 18454s | now and you're right they don't have it |
| 18455s | just yet but it is a five before we are |
| 18457s | expecting the spark flip it just it's |
| 18458s | coming in really slowly yeah i mean this |
| 18460s | is so much later there's so much more |
| 18462s | percentage to the side of the gladiators |
| 18463s | than you would have anticipated given |
| 18464s | the kills and the spark were able to |
| 18465s | find at the very beginning of the fight |
| 18467s | rider once more just falling low hides |
| 18468s | out behind the center pillar crashes |
| 18470s | back through here onto bernard as they |
| 18471s | look for the elimination that's actually |
| 18472s | going to be alpha he diving into the |
| 18474s | back to assist his tank they do get the |
| 18476s | kill on the flip will finally be there |
| 18477s | but i don't think the gladiators are |
| 18478s | going to be too not up about that |
| 18480s | they managed to get the 52 percent |
| 18482s | i mean the only thing that's about |
| 18484s | negative for the gladiators is that ryan |
| 18485s | it does start late at the ball so he's a |
| 18487s | bit behind in the old charge towards the |
| 18488s | mines |
| 18489s | and you know the opening hog gamble is |
| 18491s | just that i'll say that they actually |
| 18492s | gambled pretty you know |
| 18495s | they got the payout here in terms of the |
| 18496s | 52. so if you're gonna go for a roadhog |
| 18498s | gamble which doesn't allow you to fight |
| 18499s | for high grade at all which is why |
| 18500s | gladiators are playing so close coast |
| 18502s | side towards the cars |
| 18504s | uh but they had 52 right they managed to |
| 18506s | hold on to the point which is really |
| 18507s | important for progress |
| 18513s | staying safe looking for another target |
| 18515s | bob going to be open to the shy best |
| 18517s | that goes right over towards the |
| 18518s | gladiators entry point to the side but |
| 18520s | he is now going to be taken down out |
| 18521s | being gone as well stick comes through |
| 18523s | super rich out of there gladiators |
| 18525s | looking like they're going to be able to |
| 18526s | retake this before the sport can even |
| 18528s | tie up the percentage bernard is the |
| 18529s | last one standing but with the discord |
| 18530s | orb not long for this world gets cleaned |
| 18532s | up they're five percent shy of tying it |
| 18534s | up is the gladiators regain control |
| 18536s | i mean look at the spark ultimates i |
| 18538s | mean that that probably could have been |
| 18539s | a five for the spark to actually try and |
| 18540s | commit into but a couple players got |
| 18542s | bursted down quickly they did kill shoe |
| 18544s | mid window but the rest of the players |
| 18546s | including pader pen finding kills via |
| 18548s | the window spark |
| 18549s | thought about maybe playing for a |
| 18550s | minefield which would have been great |
| 18551s | counter towards the window thought about |
| 18553s | playing the transcendence from irony as |
| 18554s | well but it's just too late because well |
| 18556s | oh batman's already down speaking off |
| 18558s | down it's great damage i think from shy |
| 18560s | in the alpha value alfie gets himself at |
| 18562s | the perfect position to find that |
| 18563s | elimination there's the stick excuse |
| 18565s | transcendence gonna do not to do it not |
| 18567s | do a damn thing is what i'm trying to |
| 18568s | say since the explosion will take him |
| 18570s | down now |
| 18571s | trance expires bernard does fall finding |
| 18574s | kebster however minefield could be |
| 18576s | dropped in from ryan or trade it out |
| 18578s | quickly thereafter in the minefields not |
| 18579s | going to be finding any additional value |
| 18581s | so the flip is there for the side of the |
| 18582s | hangzhou spark and they only have to |
| 18583s | invest a pulse bomb yeah |
| 18586s | and it all comes down from an opening |
| 18587s | headshot from shy but at long range so |
| 18589s | pedopec is taking down a 1 hp great |
| 18591s | communication or use of pings there to |
| 18593s | allow alfie to again get that alley-oop |
| 18595s | kill force to five versus four another |
| 18597s | alley gladiators lose the point off of |
| 18599s | one frag so |
| 18601s | being able to consistently get better |
| 18602s | man down certainly has been paying |
| 18604s | dividends for the hunger spark over the |
| 18605s | course of two rounds |
| 18606s | that overclock at the ready thrown out |
| 18609s | just clearing out some of those lines |
| 18610s | for now not finding any kills oh it's |
| 18613s | gonna be the spark who are finding so |
| 18614s | much value patty and shoe now skewed |
| 18616s | gonna be taken down ryder i believe out |
| 18617s | into traffic ends up going down |
| 18619s | and that is gonna be final fight coming |
| 18621s | up now gladiators with one last attempt |
| 18623s | to get this flip back into the favor and |
| 18624s | if they can win it they will take the |
| 18625s | round the hangzhou spark are looking to |
| 18627s | hold it most likely trance |
| 18629s | yeah they really need nano here as well |
| 18631s | if they can you actually have kefsta on |
| 18633s | the flank coming through so that's a |
| 18634s | play that is unaccountable for the |
| 18635s | hunger spark |
| 18636s | one transcendence to try and block out |
| 18638s | as much as possible paddy has to be one |
| 18640s | to end this one the overclock there it |
| 18641s | is and he instantly finds out for ye |
| 18644s | great head shot off the rip super rich |
| 18646s | as well dangerously low hovering up |
| 18648s | above the point for the moment tried to |
| 18649s | get a body shot as well bernard comes |
| 18651s | crashing through the flip is there |
| 18652s | however gladiators managed to take this |
| 18653s | from right out beneath the spark |
| 18656s | left a point just a little bit too much |
| 18657s | elevation trying to keep it contested |
| 18658s | now they had to put it back into the |
| 18659s | favor as we go into double overtime |
| 18661s | shots coming through but are falling |
| 18662s | lower and lower the transcendence is in |
| 18664s | response irony just trying to keep the |
| 18665s | tops up the need comes down over on the |
| 18666s | stairwell pulled punch from kepster not |
| 18668s | gonna find a damn thing alfie still |
| 18670s | holding on to one of his own cue taken |
| 18672s | out shy traded a one for one so far |
| 18674s | support for a dps i'll be could still be |
| 18676s | a bit of an x factor here for the side |
| 18677s | of the spark of cot bleeds down they |
| 18679s | manage to touch back through keep it |
| 18681s | contested the piledriver kill fire |
| 18683s | reports are now out of the fight already |
| 18685s | gonna be taken down but does it matter |
| 18686s | we'll have to just wait and see the |
| 18688s | super rich is still here ryder moves up |
| 18690s | the top side of the point falling lower |
| 18692s | and lower goes to the mega pack the |
| 18693s | health pack it's not there |
| 18695s | it's lower and there's the pulse pump |
| 18696s | stick out he takes him down the flip is |
| 18698s | there and the hongzhou spark will claim |
| 18700s | the round they'll claim the map oasis is |
| 18703s | there's a 1-0 start |
| 18706s | a 2-0 score line on oasis as well it was |
| 18709s | damn close as we got to multiple ninety |
| 18711s | nines there little gladiators really |
| 18713s | pushed the hundred spike extremely hard |
| 18715s | but opening pick coming through from |
| 18717s | hungary spike multiple times whether |
| 18718s | it's shy alfie or somebody else |
| 18720s | exceptionally good ella gladius near |
| 18723s | heroics coming through from paddy pan in |
| 18724s | the last fight see the overclock said |
| 18726s | that he needed specifically to pop off |
| 18728s | and open things up he does that onto |
| 18729s | alpha yi |
| 18731s | but once nano comes on through they're |
| 18733s | unable to get any further kills than |
| 18734s | that hunger spark delay the point with |
| 18736s | the bob |
| 18737s | eventually find both shu and skewed |
| 18739s | skewed tries to comes back tries to come |
| 18741s | back with the transcendence but he's |
| 18742s | about one percent off so that really |
| 18744s | makes a big difference glads can't hold |
| 18746s | on to the point skewed can't trance and |
| 18747s | it's all over |
| 18749s | slim margins for the victory here for |
| 18751s | the side of the hangzhou spark but a 2-0 |
| 18753s | on oasis nonetheless gladiators now will |
| 18756s | have a map pick once more like i said |
| 18757s | people are picking oasis and they're not |
| 18759s | winning on an april hong show spark |
| 18761s | managed to take it away from them but |
| 18762s | now for hybrid gladiators will have |
| 18764s | their map selection once more we'll see |
| 18766s | where they want to take us and whether |
| 18767s | or not they can get a win on it when we |
| 18768s | come back from the break |

| 18983s | alpha yi as he goes in his bound for |
| 18985s | rookie of the year i think he basically |
| 18987s | the equivalent of three people it would |
| 18988s | seem the guy's been putting up such |
| 18990s | significant numbers how does this man do |
| 18992s | it on every single hero |
| 18995s | high ground as they go ahead and take |
| 18996s | the fight up towards super rich alfie |
| 18998s | managing to fight two oh no they have |
| 19000s | over stepped their pounds in got now |
| 19002s | they're alpha rather into the back there |
| 19004s | finds fix up |
| 19005s | cleans up the kills and i mean he is on |
| 19006s | a terrorist though he's gonna fight man |
| 19008s | damn he nearly had all the |
| 19013s | yeah man just kills away he comes up |
| 19014s | with two quick kills yucky and lip both |
| 19016s | falling seems like this is fine at the |
| 19018s | moment for the for them to break through |
| 19020s | i was looking for who are you waiting |
| 19021s | for the deflection double rockets |
| 19023s | greeting him as he hits the floor and |
| 19025s | seems to stay alive though |
| 19027s | the meantime managing to find pixa |
| 19029s | follows up gets a second elimination |
| 19031s | gets a third healthy okay starting to |
| 19034s | pop i think he heard what i was saying |
| 19035s | he says okay let me show you some uh |
| 19037s | some magic on the tracer |
| 19045s | and alpha yi looking |
| 19047s | impeccable at the start here already |
| 19049s | putting up some solid numbers on the |
| 19050s | first map of oasis here's his stance |
| 19052s | with the tracer a sixty percent pulse |
| 19054s | bomb attach right radia it's pretty good |
| 19057s | it's pretty good |
| 19059s | very good in fact and 15 final blows as |
| 19062s | well which was top fragging in the |
| 19064s | server across the board for everybody |
| 19066s | for those that are curious kevs on the |
| 19068s | other side had eight so it's a |
| 19069s | difference of seven but it is nearly |
| 19071s | double here uh the curious thing about |
| 19073s | the two players so far and you know i i |
| 19075s | am drawing comparisons between these two |
| 19076s | is alpha e is really coming up to fight |
| 19079s | up against kepster in this particular |
| 19080s | match up pat geff's actually had more |
| 19082s | damage there but only by about 400 |
| 19084s | there's a lot of elims for alpha y as |
| 19086s | well he did less damage with higher |
| 19088s | final blows what that really says to me |
| 19089s | is that alfie had a lot of opportunities |
| 19091s | where he was able to capitalize on low |
| 19093s | hp members where damage was done by |
| 19095s | somebody else and that to me is |
| 19097s | evidenced by one specific kill that i |
| 19099s | want to highlight again the shy headshot |
| 19100s | on the panapan into the alpha yi allyu |
| 19103s | from the low ground things like that |
| 19104s | between cheyenne alfie and even burner |
| 19106s | is how hunger spark able to find these |
| 19108s | picks picks specifically as well a lot |
| 19110s | of them actually off the shoe who had 12 |
| 19113s | deaths in that game that is the highest |
| 19114s | across the board for any member the only |
| 19116s | player with double digit deaths he was a |
| 19118s | key target for the hunger spark and if |
| 19120s | that continues gladiators will struggle |
| 19123s | well now on midtown |
| 19126s | secondary map pick here for the side of |
| 19128s | the gladiators after not getting their |
| 19129s | win on oasis let's see how they fare |
| 19131s | whether or not they can in fact tie this |
| 19133s | up it's gonna be the hong show spark |
| 19135s | first on the defense |
| 19137s | gladiators |
| 19138s | not the gates on the attack we'll see |
| 19140s | what they can get done alfie for now |
| 19142s | showing that torbjorn which was in the |
| 19144s | highlight package that we did play but |
| 19145s | we'll swap off he's gonna go over to the |
| 19147s | echo instead |
| 19149s | well there was a highlight as well that |
| 19150s | was actually on this map i think it |
| 19152s | might have been versus fusion but i'm |
| 19153s | honestly forgetting a little bit it was |
| 19154s | alpha yi genji wow and he had that |
| 19157s | brilliant dragon blade on b where i |
| 19158s | think one slash hits four members |
| 19160s | something like that just ridiculous |
| 19162s | stuff it was one of the most impressive |
| 19163s | genji plays i think i've seen so far in |
| 19165s | this season but you know for a lot of |
| 19166s | north american fans this is probably |
| 19168s | your first time seeing alpha yi and well |
| 19170s | you're in for a treat because this man |
| 19171s | has completely kicked down the door in |
| 19173s | terms of rookie of the year discussion |
| 19174s | speaking of people in that discussion of |
| 19176s | course reiner is still here thought that |
| 19178s | maybe doom would have been the pick |
| 19180s | obviously with shoe and skewed in we're |
| 19181s | not looking towards ryan there's no |
| 19182s | funny asher for the lucio |
| 19184s | this is also a map where burner can play |
| 19186s | sigma their own double flex so |
| 19188s | gladiators moving into midtown you know |
| 19189s | this has to be an expectation that it |
| 19192s | you can be going up against a sigma on |
| 19193s | the other side let's love that stat that |
| 19195s | we just had up there though |
| 19197s | as far as you know highest match final |
| 19199s | blows records said the last time that |
| 19200s | these two teams did square off which was |
| 19202s | in 2019 so records that have now stood |
| 19205s | the test of time for a significant |
| 19206s | period and you know with some fairly |
| 19209s | familiar and missed names in surefour |
| 19211s | and bazzy |
| 19213s | let's see if anyone will be able to |
| 19214s | maybe break those numbers here in this |
| 19216s | season |
| 19218s | at some point patty though chunked out a |
| 19220s | little bit slides back stay safe for now |
| 19222s | he's shy |
| 19223s | just outside of the train card would |
| 19225s | love to displace him but just has his |
| 19227s | attention pulled to too many sides right |
| 19228s | now |
| 19230s | i mean they have good map control you |
| 19231s | can look at this patter pan already has |
| 19233s | fire station as long as he has teammates |
| 19234s | around him he does right it's also there |
| 19236s | as well get some kills |
| 19238s | he went downstairs to grab a snack just |
| 19241s | much fun kevster right there took him |
| 19242s | down gets the follow up on the paddy pad |
| 19244s | and the fire station no longer occupied |
| 19245s | by the gladiators there right back into |
| 19247s | the respawn room |
| 19249s | or well played by alfie getting the |
| 19251s | initial pick up on the padded pan but |
| 19252s | also surviving against reiner as well so |
| 19253s | he doesn't get staggered he doesn't die |
| 19255s | well rather he just doesn't die at all |
| 19257s | which would have been awkward because |
| 19258s | ali gladiators could potentially use |
| 19259s | that window |
| 19261s | but also you look at irony as well kind |
| 19263s | of pocketing there they just play the |
| 19264s | 2v1 against reiner who would love to get |
| 19266s | a kill to anybody in that sort of |
| 19267s | situation anna now the bushes online |
| 19269s | from shu so this is going to be the nano |
| 19270s | coming through onto rhino to open up the |
| 19272s | fight |
| 19274s | i'll be getting pressure just a bit here |
| 19276s | as he just hovered down on the ground |
| 19277s | kept there looking for the kill oh he |
| 19279s | takes the skies |
| 19280s | bring some distance between them trying |
| 19282s | to answer back with a little bit of |
| 19283s | damage but has to land go into the |
| 19284s | window try to stay a little bit safer |
| 19286s | here just taking a while to get the |
| 19287s | diving |
| 19288s | and it is trying to get the pincer |
| 19289s | maneuver there onto him ryder joining in |
| 19291s | as well still haven't quite been able to |
| 19293s | find him but one for one shy goes down |
| 19294s | but shoot gets traded that's going to be |
| 19295s | the nano potentially out of the fight |
| 19297s | and now both supports are gone i'll be |
| 19299s | fighting that kill finding ryder the |
| 19301s | door will go down i'll be hitting the |
| 19303s | ground the pulse bomb stick is good oh |
| 19306s | turn the sides over here the |
| 19310s | he managed to stay in it and that shut |
| 19312s | down everything from the side of the |
| 19313s | gladiators that was their moment their |
| 19315s | chance to be able to get in onto the |
| 19317s | point and it completely gets reversed |
| 19319s | fantastic play from alfie |
| 19321s | yeah he dodges the pulse bomb using the |
| 19323s | eye frames for the dubai let's take a |
| 19324s | look at that again boom he has |
| 19326s | milliseconds of time to react to that |
| 19328s | one then then he outplays powder pen as |
| 19330s | well what an absolute guard in the flex |
| 19332s | dps and super rich and irony both died |
| 19334s | irony maybe threatened to play |
| 19336s | transcendence doesn't even do it they'll |
| 19337s | have to do it now though the window is |
| 19339s | up paddy pat nearly getting a double |
| 19341s | there looked like he was gonna have to |
| 19342s | collat does not instead just gets super |
| 19344s | rich gladiators finally able to occupy |
| 19346s | the point after some good initial kills |
| 19347s | and skew we'll go ahead and swap the fly |
| 19349s | so with alfie out of the sky this could |
| 19352s | very well just end up being the cabin |
| 19353s | i'm just spark they're close by but it |
| 19356s | looks like they don't want to try to |
| 19356s | contest this one so we'll just go ahead |
| 19358s | and let it go yeah they take them down |
| 19360s | below a minute so it's only gonna be |
| 19361s | three minutes and 20 seconds in the time |
| 19362s | bank but glad nearly have five volts in |
| 19364s | the push well |
| 19365s | i have to kind of speaking of ultimates |
| 19367s | i have to kind of ask where the ironing |
| 19368s | transcendence was in that last fight we |
| 19369s | did see super drop down the window but |
| 19371s | would have liked to have seen further |
| 19372s | support maybe a couple members got blown |
| 19374s | up too early then ironing he's like wow |
| 19375s | we just caught the lost here three |
| 19377s | versus two don't want to burn the trance |
| 19378s | you are going up against fourth place on |
| 19380s | the other sides of those so very |
| 19381s | difficult situation for the hunger spark |
| 19383s | to me this has to be an aggressive move |
| 19384s | from shai you might not want to burn the |
| 19386s | trans but the overclock needs to come |
| 19387s | through here to at least force ultimates |
| 19388s | out of the early gladiators |
| 19392s | right back into it finding kepster who |
| 19394s | does nearly have that pulse bomb online |
| 19396s | to complete the fifth and final piece of |
| 19397s | exodia for the gladiators |
| 19400s | they got it |
| 19402s | what do you do we often joke |
| 19404s | there's the dash forward shot gonna be |
| 19406s | taking down the pulse bomb looking great |
| 19407s | patty as well going to be getting super |
| 19408s | rich with the overclock |
| 19410s | drops down rotates wraps around behind |
| 19412s | him |
| 19413s | just looking for a target won't be able |
| 19414s | to find one until lb shows his head |
| 19415s | right here managed to dash away for a |
| 19417s | brief stagger but kevin gets on top of |
| 19419s | him yeah it's a nice stagger reiner as |
| 19421s | well narrowly surviving means that she |
| 19422s | was going to be able to build up towards |
| 19423s | that next nano |
| 19425s | well look at this with the paler is |
| 19427s | nearly at the finish line now so you |
| 19428s | actually need to see spark go they had |
| 19430s | opportunities to start a fight this was |
| 19431s | so slow the tempo is off from the hunter |
| 19433s | spark finally the transcendence comes in |
| 19435s | through the barely touch |
| 19437s | answering overclock auntie was there for |
| 19439s | just a moment shy does stay safe they |
| 19441s | push him back down here into the |
| 19442s | underpass bernard leading the charge |
| 19443s | goes crashing |
| 19445s | a little bit lower and as you say |
| 19447s | the payload it is crested over the |
| 19450s | finish line of point b so a bump up with |
| 19452s | the time bank and now the port spawns on |
| 19453s | the side of the gladiators i'm joe spark |
| 19455s | they're looking for some eliminations |
| 19457s | but it's uh just kind of putting them in |
| 19459s | a bad spot bernard |
| 19460s | just having a wet noodle fight with |
| 19462s | reiner but oh boy tragedy has struck |
| 19466s | that is definitely |
| 19468s | such an unfortunate situation for the |
| 19470s | 100 spot but super avoidable as well |
| 19472s | they they needed to start fights very |
| 19474s | quickly on b they allowed a lot of free |
| 19476s | pushing me that should have been more |
| 19477s | than a one fight 400 400 spike in terms |
| 19480s | of how many fights are available on b |
| 19482s | they've realistically only had a single |
| 19483s | fight there instead of two |
| 19486s | so now |
| 19486s | this is the bet that they have to lie in |
| 19488s | already on towards c barely defended the |
| 19491s | last two sections of the map so far a |
| 19492s | was decent but uh pretty invisible on b |
| 19495s | if that comes back to bite them and |
| 19496s | loses them in the map they're gonna be |
| 19498s | kicking themselves over it |
| 19500s | maybe we'll get a replay of it as well i |
| 19501s | believe it was probably kepster able to |
| 19503s | go ahead and drag that one across point |
| 19504s | b but |
| 19505s | patty already finding two alvey and |
| 19507s | bernard both gonna be taken down it's |
| 19508s | the sights of the super rich he's got a |
| 19509s | shield bash away shy will level playing |
| 19512s | field just a little bit but now he's |
| 19513s | sucking the corner the nade there the |
| 19515s | head shots fly in paddy pan really |
| 19517s | starting to come into his own was a bit |
| 19519s | of a rocky start for him |
| 19521s | looking a hell of a lot better than the |
| 19522s | latter half this map |
| 19524s | okay well this is gonna be the first |
| 19526s | reset on b and c we'll just talk about c |
| 19528s | now as the hunger spark desperately |
| 19530s | needed to find a kill there the rally |
| 19532s | being traded through so glad we'll take |
| 19534s | that on what one away and screw up for |
| 19536s | the next round now or the next round of |
| 19538s | fights okay powder pan going down to |
| 19540s | another 10 seconds lost and this is what |
| 19541s | hundreds is trying to make up for |
| 19542s | last time occasionally a lot of payload |
| 19544s | distance found though which doesn't feel |
| 19546s | good for spock and they need the mines |
| 19548s | to defend this next point as well |
| 19550s | yeah even having the win condition if |
| 19552s | they can stop the car from finishing |
| 19553s | this is still a good amount of distance |
| 19555s | but the gladiators have built up |
| 19558s | so |
| 19559s | definitely just need to be playing to |
| 19561s | halt this in place make sure that they |
| 19563s | do not get that completion so they can |
| 19565s | try to play away from those extra |
| 19567s | innings don't be playing down wrapping |
| 19569s | around the backhand side here looking |
| 19571s | for that flank angle padding that's |
| 19572s | super annoying |
| 19575s | very difficult to deal with as well we |
| 19576s | have all the plugs about to be online |
| 19577s | now this is where the glass want to go |
| 19579s | trade out one of the supports a piece |
| 19582s | gonna be taken down i'll be dashing |
| 19584s | forward helps finish off ryan doesn't |
| 19586s | even need to use the pulse bomb here |
| 19587s | hold it now for the follow-up point in |
| 19588s | all likelihood is paddy pan yeah just |
| 19590s | gonna be taken out shoot trying to |
| 19591s | escape down below half hp looks like he |
| 19593s | may be okay at the very end here |
| 19597s | 50 seconds remaining for the gladiators |
| 19599s | multiple ultimate once more getting |
| 19601s | ready to be online |
| 19603s | so just a short skirmish there see if |
| 19604s | you can poke out a few members of spark |
| 19606s | it was an initial pick up i believe it |
| 19607s | was from powder pad but if ali glad he |
| 19610s | does want to start dropping members it |
| 19611s | is going to be the reset they don't want |
| 19612s | to overspend ultimates pulse bomb gone |
| 19614s | but the other four |
| 19615s | it's gonna be pretty large here nano |
| 19617s | clock available as well between powder |
| 19618s | better shoot which would be pretty |
| 19619s | decent out on the hot spot it goes that |
| 19621s | wide it's the pulse bomb not able to get |
| 19624s | that stick now it's gonna be the nano |
| 19625s | clock coming through from patapan |
| 19626s | transcendence is matched on either side |
| 19629s | but our here for the mom and paddy |
| 19630s | desperately trying to get a head shot |
| 19632s | with these rails but has not happened |
| 19634s | doesn't find too much of anything there |
| 19636s | the shy under pressure however tries to |
| 19637s | slide away but it definitely gets taken |
| 19639s | down campuses they're scooping multiple |
| 19640s | kills in the fight skewed gonna be the |
| 19642s | only casualty on this at the gladiator |
| 19644s | so far kepster still here holds on to |
| 19646s | the pulse pop is alpha he gets taken |
| 19647s | down the delay tag thinks it's all on |
| 19649s | bernard but he's got no hp now super |
| 19651s | rich tries to occupy the card for a |
| 19652s | little bit longer but it's not gonna |
| 19654s | happen they managed to take it down into |
| 19656s | overtime but the gladiators will make it |
| 19658s | to point c |
| 19660s | that's the silver lining for the |
| 19661s | hangzhou spark right they are at least |
| 19663s | able to defend until the overtime it |
| 19665s | comes down to and unfortunately miss |
| 19666s | pulse bomb from alfie lurking on the |
| 19668s | back end so effectively but just in the |
| 19670s | final moments you see shoes strafing |
| 19673s | right side alpha you thought he'd go |
| 19674s | left |
| 19675s | it's one of those free kicks you find |
| 19677s | you know in a football match it's like |
| 19678s | which way is the goalie going to go |
| 19680s | and offer you is going to swing wide |
| 19682s | unfortunately he's not going to land |
| 19683s | that ball into the net that could have |
| 19684s | made the big difference there as well as |
| 19686s | i said they had been very much targeting |
| 19688s | shu on oaxis shu's had a much better |
| 19690s | game so far on the attacking side of |
| 19693s | midtown |
| 19694s | i mean a lot of this to me still in |
| 19696s | terms of how this map has gone down |
| 19698s | comes down to how poorly hungry spark |
| 19700s | played on b not prioritizing the fact |
| 19702s | that they were down on ultimates for the |
| 19703s | initial defense which means to |
| 19705s | effectively economic to trade |
| 19707s | economically you have to be the ones |
| 19709s | throwing yourselves at the allegations |
| 19710s | to burn their ultimates and even if you |
| 19712s | do lose team fight |
| 19714s | i mean they're going to push anyway so |
| 19715s | you're either just going to sit there |
| 19716s | doing nothing if they're going to push |
| 19717s | or you're going to be active maybe |
| 19718s | you're losing their push but at least |
| 19720s | you get to win economically so you got |
| 19721s | to do something there if you're the |
| 19722s | spark on top of the c9 it was just a bit |
| 19724s | of a disaster they'll at least be able |
| 19726s | to make a small comeback on c but this |
| 19727s | is gladiators i think drawing the line |
| 19730s | in the sand in terms of having their win |
| 19732s | conditions set |
| 19733s | and looking like a very winnable map now |
| 19735s | for la |
| 19737s | it really is if they can match that |
| 19741s | attack or at least you know parts of it |
| 19743s | with their defense here they should be |
| 19746s | feeling pretty all right about it |
| 19747s | super rich swapping out the lucios with |
| 19749s | brigitta bernard goes crashing forward |
| 19751s | on the wrecking ball looking to scout |
| 19756s | looks like no swaps to be had though |
| 19758s | we'll just be sticking through with this |
| 19762s | ultra spark as well i mean no real |
| 19765s | obvious win conditions out of sight of |
| 19766s | charge maybe getting a peculiar very |
| 19767s | pick focused kind of composition between |
| 19770s | ball tracer and sojourn |
| 19772s | so that alley cloudy is here building |
| 19775s | nanos until towards the back really |
| 19776s | effective caps are also on the genji |
| 19777s | here so no tracer but their dive |
| 19779s | potential is really strong with the game |
| 19782s | well shield headshot |
| 19784s | big opening kill it's patty trying to |
| 19786s | stay safe the roll through he's looking |
| 19787s | for the pile driver he makes it around |
| 19788s | the corner does keep himself protected |
| 19790s | for a little bit longer but are |
| 19791s | inevitably joe's man should get on top |
| 19792s | of the enemy soldier and finds that kill |
| 19794s | a couple openings here but however he's |
| 19796s | going to be training for 12. |
| 19797s | yeah it's just a bloody mess it's cute |
| 19800s | finds the second one pulls up both dps |
| 19802s | rather gonna be taken down by him finer |
| 19804s | here in the stairwell duking it out |
| 19806s | skewed arrives makes it a bit of an |
| 19808s | unfair fight they find the elimination |
| 19810s | they will hold firmly no ticks given up |
| 19813s | i mean that's almost exactly what we saw |
| 19815s | earlier with alpha yi and irony playing |
| 19817s | on the high ground as well with ryder |
| 19818s | tries to chase this time it's going to |
| 19820s | be burner trying to chase rhino can't |
| 19821s | quite get the kill so despite the |
| 19822s | heroics from shai opening on to shu they |
| 19825s | couldn't translate that into further |
| 19826s | kills outside of just padded pan |
| 19828s | and gladigate is off the back of skewed |
| 19831s | to get a number of amazing trades that |
| 19832s | keeps them in the fight bernard's dead |
| 19834s | already |
| 19835s | somewhere off screen trying to dive a |
| 19837s | back line perhaps and shu gets the |
| 19839s | better of a maybe a sleep into an ante |
| 19841s | with people corralled around him |
| 19843s | either way |
| 19844s | it's a big pick here for the side of the |
| 19846s | gladiators half the time bank getting |
| 19848s | ready to be drained down joe's spark |
| 19850s | first alt coming online the pulse bombs |
| 19851s | there oh what is that |
| 19853s | oh my goodness right between the legs |
| 19855s | gets stuck |
| 19856s | mid air |
| 19857s | great stick from lpe and that's going to |
| 19859s | be the break open they make your way |
| 19860s | over to the point and also allows for |
| 19862s | irony to try to catch up |
| 19865s | ernie's dead though okay that's gonna be |
| 19866s | a decent pick coming through from glads |
| 19867s | i mean they can come back here now they |
| 19868s | have nano they're about to have the |
| 19870s | transcendence as well but you're right |
| 19872s | this is a small cap coming in he's |
| 19873s | trying to he's looking for the |
| 19874s | elimination he takes him low but oh |
| 19877s | yeah sure he pops in the need he gets |
| 19879s | that healing buff he manages to keep |
| 19880s | skewed alive they can't force the |
| 19882s | transcendence though |
| 19883s | now he's out of there no ticks |
| 19885s | established chemists are dead but with |
| 19887s | bernard this disconnected from the team |
| 19888s | they can't really play off the back of |
| 19889s | this pick now kevin kepster's respawn |
| 19891s | he's coming back into the fight |
| 19894s | and that was a perfect reset from glass |
| 19895s | they saw like five ultimates by the way |
| 19897s | they haven't had to spend anything that |
| 19898s | should have been the camera spark they |
| 19900s | got skewed down they nearly had a |
| 19901s | successful spawn camp as well but again |
| 19903s | they can't translate into anything |
| 19905s | useful with that pick coming through |
| 19906s | spark half the reset and this is |
| 19908s | disastrous for the spot because |
| 19910s | economically again glads are massively |
| 19912s | in the lead |
| 19913s | spark despite shining out for you |
| 19915s | getting these kills they're just not |
| 19917s | able to find any success |
| 19918s | trying to look once more bernard goes |
| 19920s | forward the minefield coming down but he |
| 19921s | knocks you away from it rather than into |
| 19923s | it so he can't find any kills captain |
| 19925s | gonna be shut down no kills to be found |
| 19927s | with the dragon blade skewed falling |
| 19930s | that's gonna be a two for three hundred |
| 19932s | spark |
| 19933s | winning out it's petty weights take shot |
| 19935s | at the ready tries to send it through |
| 19937s | tries to get a head shot he cannot but |
| 19938s | the hunger sparks still taking the damn |
| 19940s | time getting their way over onto the |
| 19942s | point it comes down that'll zone them |
| 19943s | back for the moment the overclock he's |
| 19944s | going to slide forward look for an |
| 19945s | elimination but the rails do not connect |
| 19948s | first tick finally gonna be grabbed |
| 19950s | so nearby skewed transcendence |
| 19953s | ready to use it was get escort the |
| 19955s | forward should they feel in the fight as |
| 19956s | winnable shoot now going to be taken |
| 19957s | down alfie gets him with the pulse bomb |
| 19960s | a major pickup again they went up |
| 19962s | this point in this fight |
| 19964s | dive in reiner down to a sliver |
| 19966s | healing going his way the manager keeps |
| 19968s | this thing for a little bit longer but |
| 19969s | eventually shy and bernard have them |
| 19971s | surrounded to get the kills and the cap |
| 19973s | will be coming through for the side of |
| 19974s | the hangzhou spark but the time bank is |
| 19976s | significantly weakened they have to |
| 19978s | absolutely pop off during the street |
| 19979s | space if they want to finish the map |
| 19981s | it's another perfect disengage from ali |
| 19984s | gladiators because they're able to get |
| 19985s | all their members back in scavengers |
| 19986s | comes back on a tracer |
| 19988s | however the sticker from alpha yi once |
| 19990s | was take a look at this one it's on |
| 19992s | towards shoe just loves it in there |
| 19994s | skewed doesn't even matter if he turns |
| 19996s | around for sure because that is gonna be |
| 19997s | a perfect kill so eventually alfie he |
| 19999s | actually got two kills there is going to |
| 20001s | help spark get it over and it's actually |
| 20003s | five office burn for gladiators so |
| 20004s | sparks not only get the cap but they |
| 20006s | make it incredibly expensive as |
| 20008s | expensive as possible |
| 20011s | pretty much |
| 20012s | leveling up the playing field as far as |
| 20013s | the old economy is concerned shu a bit |
| 20015s | of a lead towards that nano boost |
| 20018s | already gonna be trying to catch up as |
| 20019s | best as possible but gladiators just |
| 20021s | occupying the high ground they're more |
| 20022s | than happy to go ahead and give up a |
| 20024s | little bit of distance and then try to |
| 20025s | stop the card waiting for nano top of |
| 20026s | this underpass ramp |
| 20029s | shoe's nearly there as well so kind of |
| 20031s | delaying here it's all keeping tabs on |
| 20033s | the payload they don't want it to get |
| 20035s | past the sort of underpass here it's |
| 20036s | just been slowly pushed in and as we |
| 20038s | stall out further further gladiators are |
| 20039s | looking for wind conditions via |
| 20041s | ultimates they're nearly there that's |
| 20042s | when things get difficult longer sparks |
| 20044s | so time for alpha inside to find that |
| 20045s | opening again before gladiators can move |
| 20049s | spark skirmishing they do manage to take |
| 20050s | this high ground for now alfie just |
| 20052s | going to be itching the cards forward a |
| 20053s | little bit more nano goes through goes |
| 20055s | out of the ryan or kemp's are trying to |
| 20056s | drop down the pulse bomb and shy he |
| 20057s | doesn't move away from it he has a |
| 20059s | falling skewed down to a sliver of hp |
| 20060s | once more but you will be able to keep |
| 20062s | him |
| 20063s | alive no kills to be found super rich |
| 20065s | dead as well i'm just sparking i have to |
| 20067s | reset and go once more but they do not |
| 20069s | have time on their side they need to win |
| 20071s | on this next fight or else this is going |
| 20072s | to be the gladiators tying up the series |
| 20075s | well no stick from kevster but the aoe |
| 20077s | of the pulse one that's just enough to |
| 20078s | clip shy's legs i believe so still |
| 20080s | enough for a kill alfie you tried to |
| 20081s | trade for skewed as we saw did not |
| 20083s | commit the pulse bomb nearly got the |
| 20084s | kill |
| 20085s | unfortunately at the recall away |
| 20087s | couldn't quite survive in the situation |
| 20088s | the only silver lining here for the |
| 20089s | sparks they did get a one for zero and |
| 20091s | alt trade but we'll see how much that |
| 20093s | ends up counting for them i think oh |
| 20094s | sorry actually uh two ultimates out |
| 20096s | because they're the nano and the pulse |
| 20098s | bomb so economically they look good time |
| 20100s | is such an unfortunate situation for the |
| 20102s | sparks so yeah they have to cap here |
| 20104s | they need to cap this and they need to |
| 20105s | do it cheaply |
| 20107s | jump forward man out bernard gets on top |
| 20109s | of a shoe as well they find an opening |
| 20111s | kill transcendence now |
| 20113s | clearing out the minefield spider-man |
| 20115s | around the back overclock rolling he's |
| 20117s | looking for another target pushes up |
| 20118s | over the ball |
| 20121s | now looks for a little bit more he will |
| 20123s | get pressured out however super rich |
| 20124s | finds that elimination already taken |
| 20126s | down reiner saying alive drops down he's |
| 20128s | looking for a semi-aggressive meteor |
| 20130s | strike either way won't be able to |
| 20131s | connect onto anybody the touch is there |
| 20133s | alfie forcing out the overtime recalls |
| 20136s | back the pulse bomb not gonna find an |
| 20137s | elimination |
| 20138s | now they need bernard |
| 20140s | to try to clear this out |
| 20141s | pile driver goes through gonna be taken |
| 20144s | down shy taken out as soon as he pops |
| 20145s | the overclock as well and this is |
| 20147s | looking like a wash of ot bleeds away |
| 20150s | the gladiators with a great defense will |
| 20153s | be able to take their map pick up |
| 20154s | midtown and tie this series up one to |
| 20156s | one |
| 20157s | that's a fantastic turnaround coming |
| 20159s | through from the la gladiators you see |
| 20161s | the humongous pick from powder paint |
| 20163s | towards the end there the only serious |
| 20165s | wind condition left for the spark was |
| 20166s | shy also popping his overclock and maybe |
| 20169s | getting a few picks to turn around for |
| 20170s | the spark and actually can't be but kept |
| 20172s | a killing shy just before that's allowed |
| 20174s | to happen is everything the glads need |
| 20177s | to finish things off on this particular |
| 20178s | map still have to kind of rewind and |
| 20180s | address the fact that spark to me really |
| 20182s | threw away their opportunity on defense |
| 20184s | on that b point completely invisible if |
| 20186s | it wasn't for that maybe spot could have |
| 20187s | made it really competitive gladiators |
| 20190s | capped the map completely don't allow |
| 20191s | sparks to get past b and it's gonna be a |
| 20193s | one on one |
| 20195s | there we go we have as we often say a |
| 20197s | series on our hands which is exactly |
| 20199s | what we want to see between these two |
| 20201s | squads so matt pick working well for the |
| 20203s | side of the gladiators now the hongzhou |
| 20205s | spark they will get a selection of their |
| 20207s | own as we set our sights over towards |
| 20209s | escort shy and you know could expect |
| 20212s | maybe something to play a little bit |
| 20213s | more towards the widowmaker potentially |
| 20215s | draw out odds we'll have to just wait |
| 20217s | and see what they land on when we come |
| 20218s | back |

| 20474s | and welcome back we are tied up here in |
| 20476s | our third series of the evening |
| 20478s | gladiators able to answer back with a |
| 20480s | win on their map pick up midtown now we |
| 20483s | could look forward to hangzhou's pick of |
| 20485s | escort see where they want to take us |
| 20487s | and whether or not they can go ahead and |
| 20488s | move forward in this series up to match |
| 20490s | point |
| 20492s | i think the |
| 20493s | real options here for the spark were |
| 20495s | going to be gibraltar or dorado i didn't |
| 20497s | mention earlier before we got into the |
| 20499s | series that going towards circuit royale |
| 20501s | might not be the correct choice for the |
| 20503s | spot given that shia struggled in the |
| 20504s | water uh match up ons you actually do |
| 20507s | see just down the tattoos is coming in |
| 20510s | i'm yeah that's that's the key right |
| 20512s | there |
| 20512s | who's got the middle who's got the |
| 20514s | better tad drip is it going to be xc or |
| 20515s | ours you decided to chat but uh ons is |
| 20517s | nonetheless going to come in for the |
| 20519s | escort and you know it is going to be |
| 20520s | dorado so we're going to get some |
| 20521s | sniping in it's going to be really nice |
| 20523s | to see um |
| 20524s | still has to be something that shy comes |
| 20526s | up against in terms of giving the |
| 20528s | hangzhou spark something to work with |
| 20530s | for a map like this |
| 20532s | uh and the other substitution that we've |
| 20534s | talked about is that bernard's been |
| 20536s | subbed up for gucci so we are moving |
| 20537s | towards a more winston sort of favored |
| 20539s | map which is why i was thinking either |
| 20541s | gibraltar or this dorado because they're |
| 20543s | both really winston favored rhino |
| 20545s | obviously doesn't mind he's going to be |
| 20546s | flourishing here regardless and |
| 20548s | um yeah i mean a brilliant map from |
| 20551s | gladys we saw some fantastic macro |
| 20553s | strategies the decision making that |
| 20554s | disengages i mean |
| 20556s | that really is |
| 20558s | the most immaculate |
| 20560s | i think decision making in terms of how |
| 20561s | they're disengaging when they're using |
| 20563s | ultimates all that kind of stuff on that |
| 20564s | midtown that's masterclass to me |
| 20567s | it's absolutely excellent to watch now |
| 20569s | we'll see how they fare as we move into |
| 20571s | dorado hangzhou spark |
| 20574s | bringing us here to see if they can take |
| 20576s | the lead once more |
| 20577s | trying to close things up with a 3-1 |
| 20579s | gladiator cell looking very much alive |
| 20582s | playing a hell of a lot more uh |
| 20586s | together i suppose |
| 20588s | convincingly as well and not only that |
| 20590s | but like |
| 20591s | any team that can survive situations |
| 20595s | but you can still but you can still sort |
| 20597s | of make that comeback and i'm not just |
| 20599s | talking counter frag because counter |
| 20600s | frag is like the most straight up way to |
| 20602s | try and make that comeback happen but |
| 20603s | just regrouping while sort of keeping |
| 20606s | objectives contested you know that sort |
| 20608s | of disengage we saw in midtown where |
| 20610s | they're down multiple members alfie gets |
| 20611s | that vertical stick which by the way is |
| 20613s | exceptionally difficult to do |
| 20615s | um which is why it was so impressive to |
| 20617s | see but even despite that spark couldn't |
| 20619s | find a single tick on on a and you know |
| 20621s | that stuff really makes all the |
| 20622s | difference but as we move over towards |
| 20624s | escort focus maps |
| 20626s | is coming through versus shai we'll see |
| 20629s | what shai wants to do here there's |
| 20630s | actually the surgeon first and foremost |
| 20632s | not even going to look at the water yet |
| 20634s | uh interesting to see that will come |
| 20635s | through maybe on the b point instead |
| 20638s | but rhino versus goose ray i think is is |
| 20640s | the key battle here for us because we |
| 20641s | sort of noted that in the |
| 20642s | pre-show as well about how good goose |
| 20645s | was winston has been historically versus |
| 20646s | now the rookie of rhino |
| 20648s | oh didn't spot him out he was right on |
| 20651s | the opposite side of that wall i'm |
| 20653s | surprised he didn't put any damage into |
| 20654s | ons but |
| 20655s | by the way on's not finding too much |
| 20657s | just a shot into the shield of super |
| 20659s | rich swish weight jumping across the |
| 20661s | opposite side for now carter's gonna be |
| 20663s | inching forward by reiner good choice |
| 20665s | slept on the high ground can they get a |
| 20667s | punish is the question kevster moves up |
| 20668s | the bionate comes down gishway gonna be |
| 20670s | making his exit leaping back in with the |
| 20671s | rest of the squad |
| 20672s | as alfie and kepster duke it out a |
| 20674s | little bit here on the high ground push |
| 20676s | up for months he's looking for the god |
| 20678s | so very close hasn't quite been able to |
| 20680s | nail it yet though bubble comes down |
| 20682s | goose way stays protected as he eats yet |
| 20683s | another ante |
| 20685s | continuing to get chipped away out needs |
| 20686s | to get jumped back in with the rest of |
| 20687s | the team he's got a little bit of hp |
| 20689s | someone get this man some heels |
| 20692s | we'll be able to do the cut kefsta is on |
| 20695s | the genji so he can't just blink it as a |
| 20696s | tracer he's playing for verticality here |
| 20698s | the good news that gladiators with |
| 20699s | effective damage of the goose ray still |
| 20701s | get this push in you know this is even |
| 20703s | including the fact that they dropped the |
| 20704s | member to shy so |
| 20705s | a 4v5 that guys don't really care about |
| 20707s | they'll just play the situation slowly |
| 20709s | wait for the reese for the shot once |
| 20710s | again picking up the opening frag that's |
| 20712s | two now coming through from shy can |
| 20714s | spark get more ground off the back of |
| 20715s | this one gladiators have a lot of paler |
| 20717s | push so far yep this is the archway push |
| 20719s | without a single kill coming through but |
| 20721s | then shy he rectified that kept the |
| 20723s | ticket down now the dive comes in we're |
| 20725s | looking for the cleanup and all these |
| 20726s | kills they can find |
| 20728s | gonna be pretty devastating from the |
| 20729s | side of the gladiators in the time bank |
| 20730s | that they lose |
| 20732s | some extended |
| 20734s | little pickups here for the side of the |
| 20735s | hangzhou spark |
| 20737s | not only the giant staggers but that's |
| 20739s | actually going to be a lot of old farms |
| 20740s | as well specifically rhino dying i was |
| 20742s | kind of you know had major compliments |
| 20744s | for the early gladius macro up until |
| 20745s | sort of that point but you know i won't |
| 20747s | be grilling them too hard for that one |
| 20749s | you know those kind of things happen and |
| 20750s | typically they've been playing pretty |
| 20751s | damn good so far the fact that they had |
| 20753s | zero kills by the way and still managed |
| 20754s | to push the payload under archway is |
| 20756s | phenomenal i mean that that is really |
| 20758s | exceptional stuff to have zero kills and |
| 20760s | that much push really good just great |
| 20762s | pressure being applied forcing gucci's |
| 20764s | position really opening up to the push |
| 20766s | there capture now it's going to be man |
| 20767s | up as the blade comes through so far |
| 20768s | kind of slashing it air and oh boy |
| 20771s | ironing weights it out manages to get |
| 20772s | asleep and he's woken back up i wonder |
| 20774s | if that was super rich coming through |
| 20775s | the minds swinging the flail |
| 20777s | who does uh |
| 20778s | lead to his supports death but the |
| 20780s | cleanup is still looking good for the |
| 20781s | side of the hangzhou spark as the health |
| 20783s | packs come flying through as quickly as |
| 20784s | he possibly can |
| 20786s | as well and shy he does finally get |
| 20788s | cleaned down this bridge just rerouting |
| 20790s | trying to avoid reiner as much as |
| 20793s | humanly possible alfie off screen got a |
| 20794s | pulse bomb stick on the shoe found that |
| 20796s | elimination now with the transcendence |
| 20797s | expiring skewed he's got to pull way |
| 20799s | back away |
| 20802s | spark though still waiting for members |
| 20804s | you see that glads actually have area |
| 20805s | control ryan is healed back up he's |
| 20806s | going back in the rally was decent from |
| 20808s | super rich but because they lose sight |
| 20810s | unfortunately gooseberry going down |
| 20812s | after primal |
| 20813s | the hunger really in trouble could be |
| 20815s | catastrophic for him shot he's gonna pop |
| 20817s | this the overclock just now built up |
| 20819s | looking for a target and there it is |
| 20821s | back to back headshots odds and shoot |
| 20823s | full taking out of the fight reiner |
| 20825s | trying to play around the bubble but |
| 20826s | eventually falls |
| 20828s | absolutely massive from shy i thought |
| 20830s | maybe he was going to save it because it |
| 20831s | looked like all hope was lost in this |
| 20833s | fight for the hong kong spark but shy |
| 20834s | says uh-uh it's winnable and he makes it |
| 20836s | happen |
| 20838s | yeah people keep talking about merit |
| 20840s | they talk about kayak |
| 20841s | i'm number one baby this is what the |
| 20843s | best soldier in the world is supposed to |
| 20844s | look like and hunger spark will be able |
| 20846s | to rescue themselves shy with opening |
| 20848s | two first blood kills on previous fights |
| 20850s | will save this payload and this point as |
| 20852s | well with heroics on the overclock and |
| 20854s | now down to 30 seconds that's disastrous |
| 20856s | for the hailey gladius but they have |
| 20857s | another blade coming on through no real |
| 20859s | defenses on the hunger spark so they |
| 20861s | need to survive against him okay the |
| 20863s | blade once more sleep duck goes out the |
| 20864s | deflect was used captain you're gonna be |
| 20866s | sniped out of the air super rich take |
| 20868s | him down the cart started the inch |
| 20869s | forward someone's gonna contest it and |
| 20870s | they do |
| 20871s | two meters left to go gooshway going to |
| 20873s | be anthony here for the moment the nano |
| 20874s | comes through he dives into the back |
| 20875s | line finds ons taken out skewed under a |
| 20879s | little bit of fire the support holds |
| 20880s | nearly there for the side of the |
| 20881s | gladiator shoe nearly playable finally |
| 20883s | the primals gonna come through ryder |
| 20885s | dives in the back he manages to find |
| 20886s | irony this time no sleep start there and |
| 20888s | try to shut him out of this detroit |
| 20889s | gonna be matching with the discord orbs |
| 20891s | applying so much pressure and he's got |
| 20892s | to make his exit without irony there the |
| 20894s | healing is just so very slow and steady |
| 20896s | from the side of super rich who has now |
| 20897s | fallen skewed cleaning up some kills |
| 20900s | gets those eliminations through and they |
| 20902s | will finally be able to break into point |
| 20903s | a get that two and a half minute time |
| 20905s | bump but oh boy the hangzhou spark they |
| 20908s | made them dig deep |
| 20910s | yeah that was a hard stopping moment |
| 20912s | there for the ali gladiators they had |
| 20913s | kept says play to get shut down by shy |
| 20916s | but the back line of the alley gladiator |
| 20918s | stands strong shoe and skewed did not go |
| 20920s | down the healing throughput onto ryan to |
| 20922s | allow him to stay on the payload gucci |
| 20924s | trying to bounce back between two |
| 20925s | different fights the same time he wants |
| 20927s | to go after the supports of the |
| 20928s | gladiators but at the same time he needs |
| 20930s | to help his team contest the payload so |
| 20932s | he couldn't really focus on either of |
| 20934s | the two engagements happening and spark |
| 20936s | just don't get the kills alpha you |
| 20937s | missed the pulse bomb as well and the |
| 20939s | gladiators stay in the game |
| 20941s | dynamite out flips on the goose way |
| 20943s | that's gonna give on the first bomb |
| 20946s | it's alfie |
| 20948s | noted |
| 20951s | kepster's just calling for him saying |
| 20952s | yeah yeah can we please deal with this |
| 20954s | guy kempster deals with him oh my |
| 20956s | goodness |
| 20958s | puts him right on the ground a huge play |
| 20961s | from him in the cart once more making a |
| 20962s | good distance with a relatively low time |
| 20965s | investment from the side of the |
| 20966s | gladiators but now is the cleanup oh |
| 20968s | gonna be a little bit more costly ryder |
| 20970s | jumped up over the top was slept once |
| 20972s | more gonna be woken up as he looks for a |
| 20975s | little bit of value with this ultimate |
| 20977s | but widely he's not going to be finding |
| 20978s | a damn thing now needs to try to make |
| 20980s | his way out to safety the shot's coming |
| 20981s | his way and i don't know if he quite |
| 20983s | realizes |
| 20984s | behind him but there's the cleanup he's |
| 20986s | taken |
| 20987s | out in either case i mean i think he was |
| 20990s | he was pretty comfortably dead there and |
| 20992s | that was a a fight for the hungry |
| 20993s | sparkler that went through draw picks |
| 20995s | alone because alex glady has put |
| 20996s | themselves in an interesting situation |
| 20998s | they have payload control they also have |
| 21000s | the ultimates in spark the only owning |
| 21001s | where they're committed to engage hard |
| 21003s | find those picks and then you're |
| 21004s | shooting your arms or you're confused do |
| 21006s | i pop the outfits here or not shoe pops |
| 21008s | to the nano but arms here's the tapes on |
| 21009s | the bob so the clarity is they have to |
| 21011s | accept their loss there and now spark |
| 21013s | are the ones looking at five volts alfie |
| 21015s | playing solo low ground just keeping the |
| 21016s | car hauled to the bottom gonna be coming |
| 21017s | through instantly delete super rich on |
| 21020s | finding an elimination in that regard |
| 21021s | but everybody else piles in around him |
| 21023s | they get the elimination shy once more |
| 21025s | finds you finds scooty gets right |
| 21027s | against every damn person on the side of |
| 21029s | the glass just about and there's the |
| 21030s | ocean god cleans up kebster to boot and |
| 21033s | it's a team wipe with no time left in |
| 21036s | the time saying |
| 21038s | i don't know i don't know what you think |
| 21040s | the highest railgun accuracy you've ever |
| 21042s | seen this but shy's on 85 85 |
| 21046s | he's only missing 15 |
| 21048s | it takes the cake the math checks out |
| 21050s | utterly incredible the touch is there |
| 21052s | they will force out over time the |
| 21053s | gladiator still now such a significant |
| 21055s | amount of distance to try to close if |
| 21056s | they want to get that extra minute and a |
| 21058s | half the hong kong's parked the old |
| 21059s | economy is still so damn healthy for |
| 21061s | them |
| 21062s | skewed holding onto the transcendence |
| 21063s | for now pulse pump from caspers they're |
| 21065s | not gonna find a kill ons once more |
| 21066s | under fire goes low nearly gets |
| 21068s | eliminated but we'll lift the fight |
| 21069s | another day would see |
| 21071s | take him down low because alfie trying |
| 21074s | to track doesn't have a recall available |
| 21076s | for a couple more seconds dips around |
| 21077s | the corner throws out the pulse it |
| 21078s | sticks to the wall and it's not going to |
| 21079s | get a kill irony in the meantime |
| 21081s | eliminated reiner finding the pick off |
| 21084s | hope he has to make his exit to jump |
| 21086s | back over here onto the car goose way |
| 21087s | trying to keep it contested but again |
| 21088s | the kill discord orbs the target |
| 21090s | focusing from skewed is so good they |
| 21093s | find the elimination 1.75 meters left to |
| 21095s | go now 0.37 they have to keep it |
| 21098s | contested without b dying they cannot |
| 21100s | the gladiators continue to scrape by and |
| 21103s | get these caps by the skin of their |
| 21104s | teeth |
| 21105s | a minute and a half to try to finish |
| 21107s | this map it's not looking great for them |
| 21110s | yeah shy could get staggered here as |
| 21111s | well but now he'll finish off ryan and |
| 21112s | that is going to be at least a number of |
| 21114s | a number of trades coming through for |
| 21115s | the hong kong spot so many times from |
| 21118s | that fight by the way how low shy was |
| 21119s | gladius know that he's the key target |
| 21121s | they are running out of trying to keep a |
| 21122s | lid on that guy and because he was |
| 21124s | literally on one hp from just way too |
| 21126s | extend over time for the hunger spot |
| 21128s | they didn't heal them up in time |
| 21129s | the damage wasn't enough alex gladys |
| 21132s | when push comes to stop we get |
| 21134s | twice in a row now brilliant opening |
| 21135s | shot from arms as well by the way |
| 21137s | it's going to be the ot push on a the ot |
| 21139s | push on b reiner staying alive boot |
| 21141s | straight going down alpha you missed the |
| 21142s | pulse bomb and now the snow |
| 21144s | uh the snowball coming through from the |
| 21146s | la gladiators with a few more important |
| 21148s | kills |
| 21149s | oh irony in a bit of a rough position |
| 21151s | now |
| 21152s | appeal they're attempting it to get the |
| 21153s | sleep dart out on the right or the ante |
| 21154s | down as well and shy will be able to |
| 21156s | finish him with the rail look at the |
| 21157s | distance however is free pushing right |
| 21158s | now with 30 seconds left to go and it's |
| 21160s | nearly at the finish line but shy once |
| 21162s | more he comes back through instantly |
| 21164s | finds two kills the nano had gone out oh |
| 21167s | shy reception as well the overclock |
| 21169s | popped spot shoot over here in the flank |
| 21171s | room gets him in the end with the rail |
| 21173s | kept her dead gladiators once more |
| 21176s | suffering heavy losses with just 10 |
| 21178s | seconds remaining but they do get such a |
| 21180s | significant amount of distance here |
| 21182s | should be able to get a final touch here |
| 21183s | from ryan who nearly has the play more |
| 21185s | it's not looking like no it should be |
| 21186s | careful shy he just destroys a mid-air |
| 21189s | shot as well get out of the server spark |
| 21191s | i definitely gotta be to hold this one |
| 21193s | but |
| 21194s | i have to put an asterisk on that one |
| 21196s | don't celebrate too early for the spark |
| 21198s | gladiators |
| 21199s | the heroics to be able to cap that |
| 21201s | amount of distance |
| 21203s | especially under duress again a point ot |
| 21207s | push spark wanted the full hole didn't |
| 21209s | get it |
| 21210s | b point ot push spark wanted to hold on |
| 21212s | b did not get it look at this distance |
| 21214s | on c as well that's disgusting for 130. |
| 21217s | glads are happy with that look i think |
| 21219s | it's |
| 21220s | it's a pop-off moment for spark in |
| 21222s | various cases but the glads as a team |
| 21225s | in terms of the objective they get it |
| 21227s | done 80 46 |
| 21229s | this is a blue collar day for the l.a |
| 21230s | gladiators it's not pretty they |
| 21232s | definitely got their hands dirty but the |
| 21233s | job is done that's a winnable position |
| 21235s | for the gladiators that they can't be |
| 21236s | mad at but uh i repeat again |
| 21239s | spark here |
| 21241s | uh mechanically |
| 21243s | off the back of shy especially |
| 21245s | hitting some of the most disgusting |
| 21246s | shots that we're looking at |
| 21248s | see it here once again |
| 21254s | the only kill that he was not able to |
| 21256s | net for himself |
| 21258s | i just |
| 21259s | slides in for utterly peace |
| 21263s | jesus christ oh yeah you finish him off |
| 21266s | finish him off the mid blink again |
| 21272s | yeah so |
| 21273s | start line coming through here |
| 21275s | shy currently sitting on 20 final blows |
| 21277s | the entire l.a gladiators only have 23 |
| 21280s | final ones they say only it's a decent |
| 21282s | amount but shy is three final blows away |
| 21284s | from matching the entirety of all five |
| 21286s | members of the gladiators is he dead |
| 21288s | lifting currently because it |
| 21290s | kind of feels like it he is 20 out of |
| 21293s | 33. he's he's more than deadly we've |
| 21295s | heard of flinder deadlifts welcome to |
| 21297s | shy deadlift |
| 21299s | that is uh just so |
| 21301s | 20 out of 33 |
| 21305s | uh just casually picking up nearly 66 of |
| 21309s | your team's skills |
| 21312s | oh it's a normal day for shia ricken |
| 21314s | it would seem like it |
| 21316s | jump up here gets himself in on the high |
| 21318s | ground sends out the nade this time the |
| 21320s | rail not gonna connect |
| 21322s | accuracy takes a hit |
| 21324s | so does reiner so he makes his exit back |
| 21325s | up on the high ground |
| 21328s | i mean he's just got free range right |
| 21330s | now no one's punishing him |
| 21332s | look how far forward he's live |
| 21335s | i can't get that kill |
| 21336s | just take him to the chest man just to |
| 21338s | survive trying to not diving forward |
| 21340s | good weight once more just these discord |
| 21341s | or this cord orbs are just sitting on |
| 21343s | him excuse me yeah we just got to get |
| 21346s | rid of the monkey if we can do that |
| 21347s | but we're going to be sitting pretty so |
| 21348s | just keeps them on good way constantly |
| 21353s | there's a scary moment as well 100 |
| 21354s | charge being held |
| 21356s | doesn't want to burn on rhino or iron |
| 21358s | strikes first so that can be the risk |
| 21360s | you take take too long to fire no one's |
| 21362s | is putting their head out for display |
| 21373s | a little minor assist from irony who |
| 21374s | does end up getting dropped at the back |
| 21376s | end of that kepster falling low and |
| 21378s | nothing to do to mitigate the damage |
| 21380s | yeah three kills for him trying to get |
| 21382s | sights over towards reiner who can just |
| 21383s | grab that health pack and exhale over |
| 21385s | the wall back into the market area |
| 21391s | and now this is real distance coming |
| 21392s | through nano should be coming on to ryan |
| 21393s | in the next little bit we'll maybe even |
| 21395s | say for kevs that the blade is nearly |
| 21396s | there that could be a win condition now |
| 21398s | on the other side nearly here for irony |
| 21400s | expect a big old fight coming on through |
| 21402s | arn's desperate for a pick that would be |
| 21403s | brilliant for the helicopters a single |
| 21405s | pick from irons but he gets killed that |
| 21407s | he does shy once more because out aiming |
| 21410s | him with the rail takes his head off |
| 21412s | kepster he pulls the blade he's added up |
| 21414s | but he is so very low has to make his |
| 21416s | exit and this one's just right just |
| 21418s | slicing there ryan are in the meantime |
| 21420s | dead now they know where kevin's at and |
| 21422s | they're just gonna wave at him as the |
| 21424s | car goes gliding by and he gives up he |
| 21426s | just sits there kevin says yeah just go |
| 21427s | ahead kill me i need to reset |
| 21429s | yeah he will do so well thank you |
| 21431s | i i i understand kev still but ryder had |
| 21434s | an option for primal there maybe they |
| 21435s | just accept the fact ally gladius as the |
| 21437s | whole the call from the team is give it |
| 21439s | up we'll play for b instead |
| 21441s | saddest nano blade in the world there |
| 21442s | just a 40 hp cancer running for a health |
| 21445s | pack with his nano blade ryan with the |
| 21446s | primal obstacle not blow it |
| 21449s | we'll now go for the b defense |
| 21451s | we're talking about irons needing to |
| 21452s | open up for a frag that side against |
| 21454s | arms from a long range alpha you pick up |
| 21457s | with the shoe as well now high ground |
| 21459s | being contested very early by the hunter |
| 21461s | spark it's a few and far in between |
| 21463s | where we're seeing these shots coming |
| 21464s | through from on dude it keeps happening |
| 21466s | keeps happening shy gets another one now |
| 21468s | the infrasights up but |
| 21470s | doesn't have too many great targets to |
| 21472s | choose from ryan are going to be taking |
| 21473s | a nap and he does get woken up he's |
| 21474s | trying to take down shy but look at all |
| 21476s | of the resource allocation and just keep |
| 21479s | him alive |
| 21480s | reiner has barely managed to make it out |
| 21482s | of there |
| 21484s | as well under fire will get taken down |
| 21485s | by gucci |
| 21487s | push continues hangzhou spark breaking |
| 21490s | open his point b stretch |
| 21493s | look out just the shy's ability just to |
| 21495s | pressure down the glass they can barely |
| 21497s | even walk out of spawn they're just |
| 21498s | taking so much damage i will take the |
| 21500s | opposite side that's a shot coming |
| 21501s | through that connects as well really see |
| 21503s | onto who overclock available this is |
| 21505s | going to be deadly |
| 21506s | we're actually just going to transfer it |
| 21508s | so the transfers force cushion for |
| 21509s | stretch yeah he's just popping it he's |
| 21511s | all the way out into the back the pulse |
| 21512s | pump in offers up a hell of a lot of |
| 21514s | damage onto the rest and skews is an |
| 21516s | easy cleanup kill now the support's gone |
| 21518s | ryanair auntie dead |
| 21521s | it's just kepster and there's just not a |
| 21523s | damn thing he can do here he'll build up |
| 21524s | the pole oh my god a few seconds but |
| 21526s | four minutes |
| 21528s | they just didn't even really have to |
| 21529s | finish the map |
| 21532s | does get a return frag but i don't think |
| 21534s | you know |
| 21535s | yeah the split spawns coming on through |
| 21537s | some bad spots for a few players there's |
| 21538s | shy slow down here but still moving on |
| 21540s | through nano clock available watch out |
| 21542s | for that one 195 rails will be shy he's |
| 21544s | been accurate on the head shots this |
| 21545s | time just a breath of wind on a couple |
| 21547s | players plus the body shots enough for a |
| 21549s | kill |
| 21550s | nano online for shoe in just a hot |
| 21551s | second here but it's three and a half |
| 21553s | minutes to get to the end of see they |
| 21554s | don't have to finish them out but they |
| 21556s | do have to get to the end |
| 21560s | drop down there's the stick very nice |
| 21562s | little real play from kepster |
| 21564s | making it look flashy |
| 21566s | made comes out from shy just to keep |
| 21568s | them zoned back |
| 21569s | for now hong sho spark will just wait |
| 21571s | for the reset |
| 21572s | for irony to rejoin they do have time on |
| 21574s | their side for the moment overclocking |
| 21577s | already |
| 21578s | deleted |
| 21581s | to close the sun there is my boy |
| 21584s | yeah he was looking for the very |
| 21585s | aggressive |
| 21587s | peak |
| 21588s | so his ego gets checked at least a |
| 21589s | little bit there good to know the |
| 21590s | gladiators about that all right at least |
| 21593s | allowed to be able to get that frag on |
| 21594s | him |
| 21596s | the previous one by the way |
| 21598s | where i'm strongly actually who died |
| 21600s | there but in either case gladys you know |
| 21602s | two picks ago reset the hyundai spark |
| 21604s | and that's very important as far as map |
| 21606s | control goes because otherwise spock |
| 21607s | will look at the snowball there's irony |
| 21609s | i believe |
| 21611s | oh and then forward shoot take it down |
| 21613s | good way moving in rails now flying and |
| 21615s | odds got nowhere to go but the respawn |
| 21617s | room taken out recall used by kev to |
| 21620s | just try to keep himself protected |
| 21622s | reiner pops the prime old does juggle |
| 21624s | around irony quite a bit and eventually |
| 21626s | gets the elimination enough cheyenne |
| 21628s | has to slide out of the corner there |
| 21630s | however manages to trade it back now |
| 21632s | caps are going to be taken down i'll be |
| 21633s | fine with the kill that pulls pop let |
| 21634s | loose not gonna find a kill |
| 21637s | keeps them at an arm's length continues |
| 21639s | to poke and prod |
| 21640s | back up but yeah he built it at the very |
| 21642s | last second |
| 21643s | so very low his max skewed over towards |
| 21646s | the cart that's gonna be the |
| 21646s | transcendence and the nano boost both |
| 21648s | used onto the zenyatta just so he could |
| 21650s | try to stay alive |
| 21652s | rejoin over back towards the car |
| 21654s | reiner falling lower and lower pull |
| 21656s | pumps and kept they're not going to find |
| 21657s | anything anthony goes out of the two |
| 21659s | irony getting chipped away at now |
| 21661s | eliminated shoe finds that kill but |
| 21663s | ryder and skewed have both fallen |
| 21665s | ons along the bottom |
| 21666s | is gonna be invested it goes through but |
| 21668s | super rich is gonna sit in front of it |
| 21670s | they focus fire take out the bob clean |
| 21672s | up the rest hans will fall the cart once |
| 21675s | more gliding forward skewed with a |
| 21676s | desperate swap over the lucio just |
| 21678s | cannot stay in this and reiner can't |
| 21680s | arrive in time with a pile driver just |
| 21682s | too far up into the air |
| 21684s | the old tizzy play |
| 21686s | from apex season four and there you have |
| 21688s | it hangzhou spark will be able to finish |
| 21690s | the map they will get the win and move |
| 21692s | up to win one |
| 21695s | take |
| 21696s | take a bow shy as well i think the |
| 21698s | single greatest sojourn performance |
| 21700s | we've seen this entire season hands down |
| 21702s | yes tell me if there's a better one |
| 21705s | never talk about merit or kai in the |
| 21707s | same sentence as shy ever again that was |
| 21709s | unbelievable in terms of what the output |
| 21713s | was again as a reminder |
| 21715s | i literally saw the stat line come up |
| 21718s | at the b point defense for the hundred |
| 21721s | spot before they lost |
| 21722s | 85 |
| 21725s | railgun accuracy for shy 85 8 5 |
| 21730s | he's he's just nasty |
| 21732s | absolutely incredible play from shine |
| 21735s | from the hang show spark collectively |
| 21736s | because everybody was sharing in that |
| 21738s | wind gucci with some fantastic moments |
| 21740s | as well but that is the hangzhou spark |
| 21742s | now bringing in this two match point |
| 21744s | with a win gladiators have their choice |
| 21746s | for push see whether or not they can tie |
| 21749s | it up once more and give us yet another |
| 21750s | map five |

| 22047s | of a weekend i'll tell you right now you |
| 22048s | get kai set up it is gonna be just like |
| 22051s | that the rest of the game back on their |
| 22053s | side of the map that's a stink oh |
| 22055s | checkmate |
| 22056s | a widow player potentially without equal |
| 22059s | that is some filthy stuff where did that |
| 22061s | come from a triple death blossom but |
| 22064s | pelican comes out of |
| 22071s | dragons just continue to play right out |
| 22073s | in front of the spot there's the blade b |
| 22075s | can be used nice pin long pin two alpha |
| 22078s | into the back there managing to fight |
| 22080s | two basically the equivalent of three |
| 22081s | people he nearly had all the kills seoul |
| 22084s | dynasty have not defeated the shanghai |
| 22085s | dragon since the 2020 playoffs i think |
| 22087s | these are the top two teams in apac mc3 |
| 22090s | goes absolutely monstrous they take down |
| 22093s | the dragons i swing the best widowmaker |
| 22096s | in all of apac no he fell onto it |
| 22099s | chester who has been frightening ever |
| 22101s | since he joined this team smurf knows |
| 22103s | what it feels like to win everything |
| 22105s | hungry to experience that feeling once |
| 22108s | more |
| 22109s | [Music] |
| 22111s | edison is locked in ready to go and |
| 22113s | awesome with a 5k |
| 22116s | that's what you want to see they might |
| 22117s | just pull the trigger here they do but |
| 22119s | i'm unreal from |
| 22121s | now the stakes get ratcheted up |
| 22124s | unnotched yeah this two or three pops |
| 22127s | the recall is looking for the target |
| 22128s | that comes in he's gonna might fit him |
| 22129s | probably the meantime found two with the |
| 22131s | pulse bomb |
| 22132s | han bin is the best sire in the world |
| 22134s | right now shu has absolutely taken |
| 22137s | matters into his own hands |
| 22139s | but |
| 22140s | free firing on the fuel and after so |
| 22144s | very long the dynasty will be able to |
| 22146s | best the dragons playoffs profit has |
| 22149s | certainly arrived the script riders |
| 22150s | they're not messing around today you |
| 22152s | step up to the plate son with a |
| 22154s | victorious war the gladiators are just |
| 22156s | tearing them apart sword dynasty will |
| 22159s | dominate their way and secure the |
| 22161s | kickoff flash title |
| 22168s | and we are back and oh boy this series |
| 22172s | has been absolutely insane so far 2-1 |
| 22175s | the lead here for the side of the |
| 22176s | hangzhou spark after just putting on a |
| 22179s | clinic on their map pick of dorado |
| 22183s | turns out to be really really good for |
| 22184s | the hunger spark you know guru schwein |
| 22186s | coming in for a map that he's very |
| 22188s | confident on you get to see the goose |
| 22189s | right uh winston again but as we move |
| 22192s | forward to a push map here this is where |
| 22194s | bernard rejoins the team likely to be |
| 22196s | playing some like a ball here which has |
| 22198s | been pretty popular on coliseum that is |
| 22199s | going to be the map choice from the l |
| 22201s | gladiators pedophile also coming in for |
| 22203s | arms as well to be taken over sergeant |
| 22205s | duties funny astra for skewed gives you |
| 22208s | a few options for playing potentially |
| 22210s | reinhardt this is gonna be the one thing |
| 22212s | i want to focus on uh the possibility of |
| 22215s | ali gladiators playing a london style |
| 22218s | rhine brawl composition with the ryan |
| 22220s | man himself rainer the funny guy is |
| 22222s | specifically on the lucio for that it's |
| 22224s | an option i don't know if they're gonna |
| 22225s | go for it but this is the test because |
| 22227s | we have had this conversation multiple |
| 22229s | times with the uh other personalities |
| 22232s | and the you know broadcast talent as |
| 22233s | well which is to say can the eastern |
| 22236s | division teams from apac play up against |
| 22238s | the best of north america's brian brawl |
| 22241s | if this does happen |
| 22242s | then that question will be answered |
| 22245s | we will see gladiators up gonna need the |
| 22248s | dig deep see if they can take this into |
| 22251s | yet another map five scenario |
| 22254s | fusion were able to persevere in one |
| 22256s | just before this long joe spark they |
| 22259s | want to avoid it though they want to |
| 22260s | look like a little bit of a cleaner |
| 22261s | representative here in apac is one of |
| 22263s | the last two remaining and uh they want |
| 22265s | to be able to take this with a 3-1 loser |
| 22267s | of this series of course will be falling |
| 22269s | down and playing up against the fusion |
| 22272s | in their next series |
| 22275s | see who it's going to be the gladiators |
| 22277s | need to get a victory right here right |
| 22278s | now |
| 22280s | and i'll tell you what no matter what |
| 22281s | the result of this right now is |
| 22283s | you know i think we all win as viewers |
| 22284s | because this is the absolute highest |
| 22287s | tier overwatch that you really can get |
| 22289s | between what is now in my mind because |
| 22292s | seoul have dropped out of the tournament |
| 22293s | sparker arguably the best apac team |
| 22295s | coming in still pending what |
| 22297s | shanghai dragons and shock do a little |
| 22299s | bit later on glads have been arguably |
| 22301s | the best north american team coming in |
| 22303s | again pending what shock do later on as |
| 22305s | well |
| 22306s | so really no matter what you're getting |
| 22308s | the very best of both regions clashing |
| 22310s | here |
| 22310s | and |
| 22311s | spark being up 2-1 at this very moment |
| 22313s | in time with gladiators looking to maybe |
| 22315s | bounce back this to a map fly by winning |
| 22317s | their map pick on to coliseum i mean the |
| 22320s | very top of both regions squared off |
| 22323s | very impressively even across the board |
| 22325s | any team can win |
| 22326s | well the gates have opened on coliseum |
| 22329s | as you can see gladiators moving forward |
| 22332s | over towards fountain |
| 22334s | joe spark seemingly expecting this |
| 22336s | positionings they hang back a bit |
| 22338s | waiting for the bot to go ahead and |
| 22339s | unlock and allow for bernard to use this |
| 22342s | person ball to go ahead and do some |
| 22343s | scouting and kepster doesn't he doesn't |
| 22346s | know how to turn right he didn't see him |
| 22348s | so they don't know where the ball is he |
| 22349s | wouldn't have expected that he probably |
| 22350s | would never expect that burner was there |
| 22352s | but you see that you know hundreds |
| 22353s | they're ready for it obviously because |
| 22354s | they spotted him but ironing even had oh |
| 22356s | okay and instantly kev drops on top of |
| 22358s | shy with the help of rhino |
| 22360s | uh very nice |
| 22362s | early kill to kick things off different |
| 22364s | side of the gladiators and get this spot |
| 22366s | moving irony gonna be taken down as well |
| 22369s | lasted a little bit longer than i might |
| 22370s | have anticipated for zenyatta but |
| 22372s | it does end up falling all the same |
| 22374s | thought he's going to be contested for a |
| 22375s | moment but they've already gained 10 |
| 22377s | meters here and with these kills coming |
| 22379s | through they've broken open the map and |
| 22381s | can now |
| 22382s | now start to get this push going |
| 22385s | yeah that's a really strange situation |
| 22387s | as well where spark had knowledge that |
| 22388s | it was going to be a big flank from |
| 22389s | kepster and yet they seem to be somewhat |
| 22391s | prepared in in some ways but also |
| 22393s | unprepared in other ways because the |
| 22395s | combination of reiner punching shy first |
| 22396s | again they know who their main target |
| 22398s | here is with caps also coming in for the |
| 22399s | early kill |
| 22401s | is going to be the 4v5 that gets |
| 22402s | snowballed heavily |
| 22405s | there's the stick |
| 22406s | that's the shield super rich he had to |
| 22408s | drop but just the frame |
| 22410s | captures manages to weave that one throw |
| 22413s | gets the kill now chasing forward love |
| 22415s | to get that punish on the alpha yi for a |
| 22416s | little bit of additional stagger but |
| 22418s | doesn't want to pursue too terribly deep |
| 22420s | healthy he does |
| 22422s | gets on top of him but now shy caught up |
| 22424s | at the crossfire ends up going down lpg |
| 22426s | lobbing in the pulse pawn but it doesn't |
| 22428s | get the stick doesn't get the connection |
| 22429s | in the gladiator lately unhindered right |
| 22431s | now bernard slows it up in just a moment |
| 22433s | but he's by himself and realistically |
| 22434s | can't do anything here super rich will |
| 22436s | finally find kevster leaving in a bit of |
| 22438s | the pressure but the pot continues to |
| 22440s | advance forward the checkpoint may just |
| 22441s | be able to be taken |
| 22443s | here that was the first kill by the way |
| 22445s | coming through from spark that's their |
| 22446s | second on the shoot |
| 22447s | funny ash with the sound barrier it's |
| 22448s | not gonna end up saving shoot but they |
| 22450s | can still cap this one just a few more |
| 22451s | kills required backline gone for the |
| 22452s | spot now |
| 22454s | broken down shy taken out as well |
| 22456s | bernard rearriving to stop the bot from |
| 22458s | moving forward and taking his little |
| 22460s | break |
| 22461s | starts hinging forward once more with |
| 22462s | the cleanup of the bernard there you go |
| 22463s | the checkpoint achieved gladiators |
| 22466s | in |
| 22467s | i want to say like record time managed |
| 22469s | to get all the way here 65 meters away |
| 22471s | start pushing again yep |
| 22473s | two and a half it's insane and you know |
| 22474s | you see the gladiators back out now this |
| 22476s | is more that fantastic glides macro you |
| 22477s | see not going to over commit for further |
| 22479s | push sneak up to 70 meters it's enough |
| 22482s | you want to regroup with shoe here bit |
| 22484s | of a quiet start for the hangzhou spark |
| 22485s | only two frags one from burner one from |
| 22487s | super rich and ella gladius after sort |
| 22489s | of reviewing what happened on dorado |
| 22490s | they're putting all their attention on |
| 22492s | killing shy and he's died three times so |
| 22494s | far but here's the overclock quick |
| 22496s | damage over towards paddy will be able |
| 22497s | to shut him down a nice response here |
| 22499s | for the side of the hong kong show is |
| 22500s | sparking shy gets another kill as well |
| 22502s | with reiner falling his own overclock |
| 22504s | now at the ready funny astro will be |
| 22506s | sniped so some crucial kills to be found |
| 22508s | but the healthy gladiators they set |
| 22510s | themselves up so nicely at the start of |
| 22512s | this map that the hong kong spark have |
| 22513s | their work cut out for them if they want |
| 22514s | to be able to tie this up |
| 22516s | yeah and they have the time advantage |
| 22518s | here as well for the alley gladius and |
| 22519s | the fact that they have so much to play |
| 22521s | with to try and defend rp good stick |
| 22524s | coming through that's going to be a |
| 22525s | hundred spark 5 versus full now glides |
| 22527s | have the option of just trying to play |
| 22528s | aggressively here to go for trades |
| 22529s | because if they do get trades their |
| 22531s | respawn advantage helps them out but |
| 22532s | their call is going to be to wait for |
| 22533s | the respawns play the proper five versus |
| 22535s | five the issue is they don't have |
| 22537s | ultimate spark are still technically |
| 22539s | snowballing too well to mitch the play |
| 22541s | through riley could be pretty huge here |
| 22545s | jumping into the back looking for irony |
| 22546s | picks him low bernard slept |
| 22548s | looks like he will get eliminated there |
| 22551s | in the end maybe for just a brief moment |
| 22552s | he's going to be able to survive but |
| 22554s | kepster gets on top of him reiner |
| 22555s | narrowly surviving looks for alpha he |
| 22558s | forces the recoil the punch is perfect |
| 22560s | time to read from him but outfit he |
| 22562s | still manages to shut him down funny |
| 22563s | astro however hovering nearby gets that |
| 22565s | kill then we'll have a sound barrier |
| 22567s | online i'll go spark in the meantime |
| 22569s | continue to push a little bit as they |
| 22570s | get slowed up here can't count four |
| 22572s | meters but they're not gonna be able to |
| 22574s | make it to the cap |
| 22576s | there's just not enough members alive so |
| 22577s | the gladiators are gonna be able to |
| 22579s | trade effectively i mean ryan even just |
| 22581s | forcing the one |
| 22582s | he doesn't get the kill himself but |
| 22584s | funny ashrae cleans it up right xalphi |
| 22585s | he was on one hp and like you said an |
| 22587s | insane read on the recall coming from |
| 22589s | alpha yi stops his rampage spark without |
| 22591s | the help of all their members alive they |
| 22593s | have to back on out 44.76 is all the |
| 22595s | spark will get brilliant defense by |
| 22597s | clouds |
| 22599s | looking great so far in the old economy |
| 22601s | really in their favor alfie he sends on |
| 22604s | the pulse bomb the only open they did |
| 22605s | have at the disposal and it doesn't find |
| 22606s | any purchase so no kill ironing dead |
| 22609s | shot not taking down as well but they |
| 22611s | our day answer back who's gonna be |
| 22613s | invested in the chemistry super rich |
| 22614s | finds that kill he'll be able to clean |
| 22616s | up bernard as well after he swaps over |
| 22618s | onto the zarya |
| 22619s | continues to chase forward alfie just |
| 22621s | and diving away does stay safe |
| 22624s | but once more the gladiators get the |
| 22625s | push going for themselves |
| 22627s | they're just going to sneak meters |
| 22628s | though again the goal isn't to try and |
| 22630s | finish the map or to hit 100 they'll |
| 22632s | obviously take that if the opportunity |
| 22633s | presents itself it ends up being a nano |
| 22636s | to i guess |
| 22637s | confirm the fight win sneaking like what |
| 22640s | three-ish kind of four-ish meters there |
| 22642s | just to make things a bit more difficult |
| 22645s | for the spark burner now swallows off |
| 22646s | zara back onto the ball you got it |
| 22647s | behind the shield |
| 22649s | and irony was tucked in behind them |
| 22651s | they both |
| 22652s | go boom big opener here from kepster |
| 22654s | gets himself a third kill in the fight |
| 22656s | why not a fourth |
| 22658s | cleans them up and once more the bot |
| 22660s | just continues to remain on this side of |
| 22661s | the map the hong joe spark |
| 22663s | yeah really able to ship it back across |
| 22666s | and this will be |
| 22667s | as well because glads actually have |
| 22669s | members alive now there's they're not |
| 22671s | just kind of skirmishing for slight |
| 22672s | payload theft they're actually going to |
| 22674s | go for a proper push that can go up to |
| 22675s | 90 or more |
| 22677s | and this is a master class from campus |
| 22678s | so far he has been indomitable on this |
| 22680s | racer |
| 22681s | okay well a good pick off bernard |
| 22683s | finding shoe gets with the pile driver |
| 22684s | reiner exiting with the meteor strike |
| 22686s | not using it aggressively either just |
| 22688s | getting himself out of the safety is |
| 22689s | paddy will get cleaned up |
| 22691s | runner just gonna be i thought he's |
| 22692s | gonna drop off the high ground but i |
| 22694s | think he's more than happy to just go |
| 22695s | ahead and die because they know they |
| 22696s | have such a significant advantage as far |
| 22697s | as the distance is concerned yep |
| 22700s | every reset every reset is extremely |
| 22702s | costly for the spot because you're going |
| 22703s | to see another fight come through from |
| 22704s | the neutral now because we're up to 19 |
| 22706s | meters spark push one back to mid four |
| 22708s | spawns will end in a second but the |
| 22710s | force points allow them to take this mid |
| 22711s | fight right that's the important thing |
| 22713s | the flank's been covered by kefs so |
| 22714s | alpha you can't take that rope they |
| 22716s | still have it reiner locks the bot in |
| 22718s | place |
| 22719s | starts moving forward it's just a couple |
| 22721s | meters away from |
| 22723s | locking out those forward spawns but now |
| 22725s | we'll still be holding on |
| 22727s | he looks for target oh man what a turn |
| 22729s | of his attention spot shoe at a glance |
| 22732s | double dashes forward finds the kill a |
| 22734s | big opener he was gonna have the nano up |
| 22736s | in this extended fight now they will not |
| 22738s | have it ironing going to be taken down |
| 22739s | at the back and the pulse bomb from |
| 22740s | kepster but beyond the grave will still |
| 22742s | find super rich i'm not sure if the |
| 22744s | shield was destroyed or not either way |
| 22746s | he goes down so a bit of a bloody brawl |
| 22748s | but it's one that the spark will be able |
| 22750s | to win out on and start moving the bot |
| 22751s | forward a little bit |
| 22753s | and by the way that was a very light cap |
| 22755s | on the mid by as well and what i mean by |
| 22757s | cap is you have to push the bot past the |
| 22759s | midway point to deny the fourth spawn so |
| 22761s | alex has actually got a full wave of i |
| 22763s | think four spawns there mine is fighting |
| 22765s | astro which is why they get to reinforce |
| 22766s | so quickly we're gonna have another |
| 22767s | fight in the mid despite huntress spot |
| 22770s | winning their fight it's just they |
| 22771s | couldn't capitalize in time and they |
| 22772s | also lost both their supports |
| 22775s | down two and a half minutes now ryder |
| 22777s | going in deep the meteor strike coming |
| 22778s | through super rich puts the shield up |
| 22780s | gets punched shut down diving to the |
| 22781s | back they are looking for the kill here |
| 22783s | on iron if you think of lower load for |
| 22784s | the rally helps keep him alive shy dead |
| 22786s | as you said but one for one overall so |
| 22789s | far but now alfie joining him in the |
| 22791s | grave both of the dps on the side of the |
| 22793s | hung hangzhou spark gonna have to try to |
| 22794s | rejoin the fight a little bit late but |
| 22796s | the health bars from the side of the |
| 22797s | hangzhou spark which is so damn low |
| 22799s | they're gonna remain that way with irony |
| 22801s | dying as well |
| 22802s | it's a bridge trying to keep the rest of |
| 22804s | the team and himself in this fight but |
| 22806s | it's just so much pressure being applied |
| 22808s | right into city of the name doesn't care |
| 22811s | eats the damage all about sunny |
| 22812s | charge over towards his teammates |
| 22814s | disaster finds shy once more |
| 22817s | yes the second kill in a row on towards |
| 22818s | side actually shut down it's overclock |
| 22820s | so they're doing a much better time a |
| 22822s | much better job of actually putting the |
| 22824s | little shot again this is their target |
| 22825s | focus they want to get him down shy |
| 22828s | currently got eight deaths tied with |
| 22829s | super rich on eight as well for the |
| 22830s | highest amount of death so gladiators |
| 22832s | are just diving on top of shot whether |
| 22834s | it's the lucio player funny astro or |
| 22835s | somebody else like reiner and kepster |
| 22837s | they have to get those kills and they |
| 22838s | are hundreds is struggling it's |
| 22840s | foreign spawns once more as bernard goes |
| 22842s | back over to zarya for the second time |
| 22844s | capster playing out right in front of |
| 22845s | their spawn several members contained oh |
| 22847s | they're not paying attention there's the |
| 22849s | and super rich is just magnetized for |
| 22851s | these right now catcher gets them once |
| 22854s | more follows up for irony the supports |
| 22855s | are out of the fight how depends gonna |
| 22857s | be taken down by alvin here the back end |
| 22858s | kept her dead as well so the dps dealt |
| 22860s | with but with a minute remaining |
| 22862s | nearly 60 meters that they have to go |
| 22864s | ahead and cover this is looking done and |
| 22867s | dusted |
| 22870s | and ryan looking for more kills here i |
| 22872s | mean this is all slow rider doesn't care |
| 22873s | if he dies |
| 22875s | here and he's just going to go for this |
| 22876s | one |
| 22877s | yeah it slows the spark |
| 22879s | at the deal with them okay they do sleep |
| 22882s | him he almost gets out for you |
| 22884s | put him in there to the wall they will |
| 22885s | finally be able to deal with them but in |
| 22886s | the meantime the bodice just sat here on |
| 22888s | the bridge continuing to make its way |
| 22890s | across the hangzhou spark have not been |
| 22892s | able to rest control away from the |
| 22893s | gladiators whatsoever patty pat now |
| 22894s | gonna be |
| 22895s | nanoed up |
| 22896s | overclock nearly at the ready to manage |
| 22899s | to pile up find the enemy sojourner |
| 22900s | finally can start moving the bot away |
| 22902s | i'm gonna one day miraculous ot push |
| 22904s | this would be the bot for now not being |
| 22906s | occupied by the hot the side of the |
| 22907s | hunger spark they're actually trying to |
| 22908s | play forward |
| 22909s | selfie falls lower and lower has to kick |
| 22911s | back |
| 22913s | i mean this is all about done i mean |
| 22914s | you're ready to load up map number five |
| 22915s | already hungry spark will go for the |
| 22916s | miracle push at this point if the alec |
| 22918s | ladies kill even one person the map is |
| 22920s | done called it finished hunger sparked |
| 22923s | with another man picked to go forward |
| 22924s | and it's just not a good pulse at all |
| 22926s | funny astral builds up the sound barrier |
| 22927s | drops the beat keeps everybody shielded |
| 22929s | paddy pants gonna be dead however before |
| 22930s | he can use the overclock rider slept |
| 22932s | falling lower and lower and okay the |
| 22934s | fight they do win this one out kevin |
| 22936s | recalling |
| 22937s | still holds on to the fourth bomb and |
| 22938s | likely will and yeah doesn't want to let |
| 22940s | it loose funny answer is going to go |
| 22942s | ahead and forward gets the reason off |
| 22945s | three more fights question mark left |
| 22947s | forward |
| 22948s | to actually do anything here |
| 22950s | yeah maybe four considering that to push |
| 22952s | 60 meters and ot again |
| 22954s | the key thing here is one death hunger |
| 22956s | spot literally can't die not a single |
| 22958s | member i mean they haven't got the |
| 22959s | checkpoint yet right |
| 22961s | at least wait for that they're still oh |
| 22964s | then it's over okay that should |
| 22965s | basically be it |
| 22966s | well shy he does have his own overclock |
| 22969s | puts a chest shot there on a paddy pant |
| 22970s | now if he manages to scoop it try with a |
| 22973s | head shot we'll find shoe reiner getting |
| 22975s | super rich however as he falls lower and |
| 22976s | lower but with no supports now in the |
| 22978s | fight this is looking |
| 22979s | so very hopeless for the side of the |
| 22981s | hangzhou spark especially with shy dead |
| 22983s | the cleanup comes through it's all |
| 22984s | announced |
| 22985s | no hp to speak up and there you go ot |
| 22988s | bleeding away the gladiators they will |
| 22990s | win on coliseum they will extend this |
| 22993s | into a fifth and final map |
| 22995s | not going down without a fight hangzhou |
| 22998s | spark they have their pick of the litter |
| 22999s | but whether or not it's going to be good |
| 23000s | enough to deal with the gladiators after |
| 23002s | what we just saw especially from kevster |
| 23004s | on this tracer |
| 23006s | this is a scary position to be in |
| 23009s | it's carry performance after carry |
| 23011s | performance we're shy in the previous |
| 23012s | map kefstar will bounce back now |
| 23015s | on this trace is so phenomenal in terms |
| 23017s | of the pulse bomb sticks the kill |
| 23019s | pressure it starts with a one-two punch |
| 23021s | from rhino first and kept coming in for |
| 23023s | the kill onto shai in the opening minute |
| 23026s | and then from there it's done |
| 23028s | an impeccable performance from him from |
| 23030s | the rest of the gladiators the hong kong |
| 23032s | spark now being pushed to the brink |
| 23034s | can't close that out cleanly can they do |
| 23036s | what the fusion just did moments before |
| 23038s | them and win in the map five we'll have |
| 23039s | to see and we'll see where they take us |
| 23041s | for our last round of control when we |
| 23042s | come back from the break |
| 23045s | [Music] |
| 23065s | [Music] |
| 23067s | so |
| 23070s | [Music] |
| 23085s | [Music] |
| 23122s | [Music] |
| 23133s | [Music] |
| 23199s | um |
| 23203s | [Music] |
| 23210s | [Music] |
| 23213s | um |
| 23217s | [Music] |
| 23224s | [Music] |
| 23231s | so |
| 23237s | [Music] |
| 23248s | [Music] |
| 23257s | and we are back the action continues |
| 23260s | with yet another map five hong kong |
| 23262s | spark unable to clean it out |
| 23265s | unable to get a victory on the map pick |
| 23267s | of coliseum from the gladiators they |
| 23269s | take it now we set our sights on ilios |
| 23272s | as the final map in this series |
| 23275s | really good mad pic choice from |
| 23277s | gladiators to go towards colosseum |
| 23279s | playing to the strengths of the |
| 23280s | gladiators that this sub in from funny |
| 23282s | ashrae made a big difference as well to |
| 23283s | their speed and pacing their ability to |
| 23285s | get onto the back line funny asher |
| 23287s | really getting active the kill feed as |
| 23288s | well have to remind everyone that you |
| 23290s | know shy was a big problem on dorado and |
| 23292s | gladiators made it a point to try and |
| 23294s | shut them down as hard as possible on |
| 23296s | coliseum and they did that through a |
| 23298s | multitude of different ways every single |
| 23299s | player contributed to getting spark down |
| 23303s | getting the win conditions away and |
| 23304s | having the early leads you know 19 |
| 23306s | meters at the start they're even |
| 23307s | sneaking an extra push to get to 100 |
| 23309s | even further see reina basically spawn |
| 23311s | camping but that just delays 100 spark |
| 23313s | further gladiators are sneaking even |
| 23315s | more meters in all of those small things |
| 23317s | really lead to gladiators taking away |
| 23320s | the map and what i believe a dominant |
| 23322s | fashion i don't get baited by those ot |
| 23324s | pushers i think once you get to a |
| 23326s | certain map state in a certain game |
| 23327s | state once ali gladius have set that up |
| 23329s | um |
| 23330s | from a macro perspective it it really is |
| 23332s | all but one like kung ju spike would |
| 23334s | have to play |
| 23335s | better than they did on dorado which i |
| 23336s | don't think is possible to really have a |
| 23337s | chance there so we go to map five now it |
| 23339s | is spark's map pick and so far the team |
| 23342s | that picked the map has won the maps so |
| 23346s | spark an opportunity here maybe outside |
| 23348s | of oasis we should say |
| 23351s | that's the one that right yeah fell |
| 23352s | spill through the |
| 23356s | yeah has been a big boon for the squad |
| 23358s | but with control it always is a little a |
| 23361s | little less cut and dry when it comes |
| 23362s | down to you know what kind of advantages |
| 23364s | you can really gain for yourself so |
| 23366s | we'll see if it does work a treat for |
| 23367s | the side of the hangzhou spark because i |
| 23369s | mean just a reminder to set the stakes |
| 23370s | here winner from this series advances |
| 23372s | forward to play against the winner from |
| 23373s | our next series in the day and then the |
| 23376s | loser falls down to that lower bracket |
| 23377s | that has to go through the philadelphia |
| 23379s | fusion if they want to stay in this |
| 23381s | tournament so everything to play for not |
| 23383s | an elimination match but obviously you |
| 23386s | don't want to be making that lower |
| 23387s | bracket run |
| 23390s | and i'll repeat myself here again you |
| 23391s | know really no matter who wins we all |
| 23393s | win because this has just been the |
| 23394s | highest level overwatch that we've had i |
| 23396s | mean it is incredible how well these two |
| 23398s | teams are playing the mechanics being |
| 23400s | shown the macro play the decisions being |
| 23402s | made as well the strategic plays from |
| 23404s | both teams i think especially glad it is |
| 23405s | in some cases has just been phenomenal |
| 23408s | so |
| 23409s | uh whether n a wins or apac wins or |
| 23411s | whoever loses it's going to be a three |
| 23413s | and two results you really don't get |
| 23414s | overwatch better than this this is about |
| 23416s | as close as you can get as well no it |
| 23418s | absolutely is and you know i |
| 23421s | i made the mistake after our second map |
| 23423s | of goalie and ceiling how's how's the |
| 23425s | chat doing today go ahead give it a |
| 23427s | little sniff did a little investigation |
| 23429s | you have some people saying like wow |
| 23430s | these these apac casters are so biased |
| 23431s | for the hong kong spark guys we're not |
| 23434s | map three i guess it was escorted after |
| 23436s | dorado we're not they just played really |
| 23438s | really well on dorado so we sang them |
| 23440s | praises and then we're saying praises |
| 23441s | for the gladiators and coliseum because |
| 23443s | they played really really well so just |
| 23444s | use some critical thinking put your |
| 23446s | heads together and you can come to uh |
| 23448s | you know a conclusion as far as what's |
| 23449s | actually going on |
| 23451s | here good overwatch we are not here for |
| 23453s | anybody in particular for any region to |
| 23455s | win this |
| 23457s | it's crazy team winning gets compliments |
| 23459s | team losing |
| 23461s | gets criticism and uh no matter who it |
| 23464s | is that stays consistent imagine that so |
| 23466s | uh we'll see who wins and loses here and |
| 23468s | who gets the compliments and the |
| 23469s | criticisms as we move on forward |
| 23472s | as elios being the map choice |
| 23475s | chosen by the hangzhou spark uh i think |
| 23478s | the most important thing here is that |
| 23479s | funny astro is staying in yeah so pace |
| 23482s | for the gladiators |
| 23483s | boost it up to 11 here speed is going to |
| 23486s | be important their dives have looked |
| 23487s | immaculate off the back of finding out |
| 23488s | your rhino and kept the playing together |
| 23492s | i wonder what kind of comps we'll see as |
| 23493s | well because this is a pretty bold |
| 23494s | favorite map which is what burner wants |
| 23496s | to play he wants to play the wrecking |
| 23497s | ball here is rhino going to match that |
| 23499s | or go back towards doom because he's |
| 23500s | been phenomenal on the doom well as we |
| 23502s | can see on our screens and you guys will |
| 23504s | see in just a moment it is going to be |
| 23505s | well drawn for the first round of illios |
| 23508s | so i mean funny answer if you physically |
| 23510s | wanted to could stick with the lucio but |
| 23511s | we'll have to just wait and see what the |
| 23512s | overall composition looks like |
| 23514s | this is the could be a brilliant |
| 23516s | ground for lucio's |
| 23519s | i will say that if they do want to play |
| 23520s | brig skewed probably would have been the |
| 23522s | right call here from a substitution |
| 23524s | standpoint so if you do see funny astro |
| 23526s | it really should be the lucio otherwise |
| 23529s | again |
| 23530s | putting skewed here for this particular |
| 23531s | map so it is going to be the lucio in |
| 23533s | reiner currently hovering the winston |
| 23537s | uh this is well is it not so well pretty |
| 23539s | damn good for i think i think doom would |
| 23541s | even be preferable to a winston for |
| 23542s | rider and it does look like he's gonna |
| 23544s | stick on through about a couple seconds |
| 23545s | left here to maybe decide ball is |
| 23548s | definitely the preferred choice if not |
| 23550s | doing so right we'll have to see if this |
| 23551s | one works out |
| 23554s | and here we go the gates opening for the |
| 23556s | last map the first round of elios |
| 23559s | tp forward echo for alfie once more has |
| 23561s | been a staple pick from him and it's |
| 23563s | been very few and far between where he |
| 23565s | gets punished on this pick see how he |
| 23567s | fares again |
| 23569s | the shoe under some early fire spots |
| 23571s | kepster up over top by windmill just |
| 23573s | turns his sights over to the supports |
| 23578s | larry is rotating through it but rpe |
| 23579s | trying to get in as much damage as |
| 23580s | possibly super rich on the high ground |
| 23582s | there as well they're looking to |
| 23583s | collapse onto this burner on the sides |
| 23586s | finally barely getting out with his life |
| 23588s | get the beam unable to connect otherwise |
| 23589s | maybe i'll be would have been all over |
| 23591s | him down diving forward though funny |
| 23592s | astro receiving quite a minute here |
| 23594s | those sticky bombs they'll stay alive |
| 23596s | shoe just rapidly building up towards |
| 23598s | this nano 28 left to go and decided the |
| 23601s | hangzhou spark not much to speak of as |
| 23603s | far as the old charge is concerned for |
| 23604s | their supports and it's gonna be irony |
| 23606s | eliminated first and foremost she does |
| 23608s | get traded out super rich however under |
| 23611s | too much pressure ends up crumbling the |
| 23612s | gladiators have broken up but they |
| 23614s | should be able to get this first cap |
| 23616s | yeah this double supports down spark now |
| 23618s | are definitely in trouble they have to |
| 23619s | rely on health packs should be the cap |
| 23621s | coming through in just a few moments |
| 23623s | without you falling there really isn't |
| 23624s | much hope for the 100 spark anymore ryan |
| 23626s | making a little bit of a whippy play |
| 23627s | there believe he went off the map |
| 23629s | it would seem like it gladiators do lock |
| 23632s | down this point for how long is the |
| 23634s | question put with bernard out of the |
| 23635s | fight i'm just sparked looking like |
| 23636s | they're just going to sit back go for a |
| 23637s | reset |
| 23639s | gladiator should be quick as well i want |
| 23640s | to highlight shoe because |
| 23642s | schumer has a nano available but he also |
| 23644s | opened up that fight he does die but he |
| 23646s | enables to come to irony because he |
| 23647s | landed a long where he sleeped up on top |
| 23649s | of irony which allows ryan to get the |
| 23650s | kill so that's how things start for the |
| 23652s | glads boss is available now for both |
| 23653s | teams |
| 23655s | scored gets the stick it's on the rider |
| 23656s | though and he's going to be nanoed up so |
| 23658s | doesn't find two too much damage |
| 23659s | kempster in the meantime he gets an |
| 23660s | elimination with his killing irony now |
| 23663s | super rich again gonna be taken down no |
| 23664s | support in the fight for the side of the |
| 23665s | hangzhou spark is alfie |
| 23667s | broken out of the new by funny astro and |
| 23668s | he's just trying to kite back 39 hp |
| 23671s | drops down grabs the health pack will |
| 23673s | manage to stay safe the flip is there |
| 23675s | for the side of the hangzhou spark with |
| 23676s | this many members of the side of the |
| 23677s | gladiator still playing far forward they |
| 23679s | could get a quick flip rhino he's going |
| 23682s | lower and lower but are trying to play |
| 23683s | forward to get something done here they |
| 23684s | can't get the punish onto the enemy |
| 23685s | winston but they'll keep him at arm's |
| 23687s | length for the time being but funny |
| 23688s | astro again as soon as irony rearrives |
| 23690s | tim's like he's right back into the drop |
| 23692s | ship |
| 23694s | yeah rhino saved that just got the |
| 23695s | primal available bernick is taken down |
| 23696s | by shoe mid ultimate so the mines might |
| 23699s | be out in play but gladiators should |
| 23700s | have this one they lose shoe |
| 23702s | still four |
| 23703s | though |
| 23705s | jumping into the back they're looking |
| 23706s | for super rich he's just stuck in a |
| 23707s | corner with nowhere to go no one appeal |
| 23708s | for him |
| 23709s | he dies i'll be in shy will manage to |
| 23711s | find one a piece but it's just not going |
| 23713s | to be good enough for them in this fight |
| 23715s | still waiting on the supports the reason |
| 23716s | why he joined the fight the primal does |
| 23718s | come through from ryder looks for a |
| 23719s | target spots shy but can't quite get on |
| 23722s | top of the tracer with a relative ease |
| 23724s | so widely the primal just gonna be |
| 23726s | keeping him alive rather than doing |
| 23727s | damage |
| 23729s | well keeps the point alive as well so |
| 23731s | gladiators don't lose control there they |
| 23732s | get all their five members back waiting |
| 23734s | for the blade to come through for the |
| 23735s | next fight under spark looking for a |
| 23737s | rally shy opportunity for the |
| 23738s | possibility while kips will get it first |
| 23740s | he gets another one another support |
| 23742s | taken down and i stick there from shield |
| 23744s | or onto you rather from shy these sh |
| 23747s | names gets that pick but shooting his |
| 23749s | dying breath got a shot across on the |
| 23750s | super so once more his building supports |
| 23752s | go on the side of the hangzhou spark now |
| 23753s | alfie out of the fight as well and |
| 23755s | that's a hell of a lot of the firepower |
| 23756s | here |
| 23757s | shy having to pull away the flip not |
| 23759s | there 90 percent online for the side of |
| 23760s | the gladiators paddy could be coming |
| 23762s | back through with the blade ready to be |
| 23763s | pulled out should he need it |
| 23766s | right now that's even unlikely let's |
| 23767s | just use it all the same though crowley |
| 23769s | rolling super rich |
| 23772s | trying to keep him up and as you say the |
| 23773s | beat is available from funny astros he |
| 23775s | doesn't get picked mid-drop he's still |
| 23776s | very low |
| 23778s | get the kill alfie finally beams him |
| 23779s | down |
| 23780s | a big opening but they have to win out |
| 23781s | the fight they have to get this flip and |
| 23782s | even then they are still not out of the |
| 23784s | woods |
| 23785s | point so very far away |
| 23787s | from being one from the side of the hung |
| 23788s | just park the kills finally flying |
| 23790s | through they should be able to clear |
| 23791s | this one out as they deal with kepster |
| 23793s | they will gain control but they're |
| 23794s | starting at 17 |
| 23797s | and i'm so surprised it's been difficult |
| 23799s | for the hunger spot to kill ryan because |
| 23801s | that's winston has much more difficult |
| 23802s | time surviving than a doom would on this |
| 23804s | map than a ball would on this map the |
| 23805s | lack of mobility right the shoe and |
| 23807s | funny astro keeping rhino up his own |
| 23809s | winston mechanics as well keeping him up |
| 23810s | staying alive via the primal rage ryan |
| 23812s | has actually only died twice this map |
| 23814s | which is incredible for winston in this |
| 23816s | sort of matchup |
| 23817s | on the other side that should just beam |
| 23819s | you down right yeah so uh glads have |
| 23822s | about five ultimates they they might |
| 23823s | have lost their fight but they're in |
| 23824s | position to take the round |
| 23826s | okay sound barrier dropped in from funny |
| 23828s | astro bernard antique but that'll expire |
| 23830s | pulse bomb at the ready once more from |
| 23832s | capture paddy diving into the back of |
| 23833s | the blade but he's gonna be focused |
| 23834s | fired up he comes through with that beam |
| 23836s | cuts them down to size now the supports |
| 23838s | are gonna be out of the fight as well |
| 23839s | and reiner wisely holds on to the primal |
| 23841s | rage they know that they still have a |
| 23842s | couple more fights in this before |
| 23844s | they're really in a dire situation it's |
| 23846s | patty it's gonna be swapping over |
| 23849s | and look at this as well hunger spark |
| 23850s | held onto three ultimates there where |
| 23851s | was the nano from shoe paddy goes for |
| 23853s | the play but either shoe was under |
| 23855s | pressure or he just couldn't see paddy |
| 23857s | but that was |
| 23858s | some sort of miscoordination from the |
| 23859s | gladius a very rare moment where you |
| 23861s | beat in you're obviously playing for a |
| 23863s | blade the nano was required doesn't get |
| 23865s | played and the rest of the players like |
| 23866s | well we lose this fight hold on to the |
| 23868s | ultimates come back for another day |
| 23870s | sombra just to get him quick i'm out of |
| 23873s | here final fight now of 99. |
| 23875s | that it is |
| 23876s | down to a wire a major reversal here |
| 23878s | from the side of the hangzhou spark to |
| 23879s | get this far can they close that out of |
| 23881s | the question |
| 23882s | alfie |
| 23884s | oh no oh he's jumping |
| 23888s | back out of there in time ends up going |
| 23890s | down it will be a one for one shoe and |
| 23891s | design breath offering up the nano boost |
| 23893s | to try to keep his team in this fight |
| 23894s | but he has to run to the wall who's down |
| 23896s | for hp he still stays alive he actually |
| 23898s | gets irony as well he's doing such |
| 23900s | genetic amount of work here the flip |
| 23902s | still not there however for the side of |
| 23903s | the gladiators i'm joe spark fighting |
| 23906s | tooth and nail to keep this point |
| 23907s | occupied to make sure the flip cannot |
| 23909s | come through but now |
| 23911s | that is the delay tactics widely dealt |
| 23913s | with bernard still hovering near five |
| 23914s | the flip is coming in |
| 23916s | bernard three arrives gets back in keeps |
| 23918s | it contested down below half hp need |
| 23921s | some tlc they clear the point that's the |
| 23923s | gladiators now in control alfie taking |
| 23924s | down shoe returning to the moira comes |
| 23927s | up with two kills and it's good enough |
| 23928s | to get the cap |
| 23930s | the first round goes to the gladiators |
| 23933s | my goodness daniel hathaway go to the |
| 23935s | sticks that is a performance on the |
| 23937s | lucio and a half the boot kill on to |
| 23939s | alphagee when he comes out of duplicate |
| 23942s | form cannot fly out in time the kill |
| 23944s | into irony as well he got three kills in |
| 23946s | the middle of that fight and he's been |
| 23948s | doing so much over the course of the |
| 23949s | last two maps i mean he gets subbed in |
| 23951s | for carlos ceo |
| 23953s | has the ability to shut down cheyenne |
| 23955s | multiple times sprit says keep play |
| 23957s | sombra i think let's take a look at this |
| 23959s | again that's one boob on to alfie was |
| 23962s | massive if alpha he gets to fly out of |
| 23964s | there as an echo that could be |
| 23965s | game-changing because you have the rally |
| 23967s | available hundred spike would have sold |
| 23968s | five |
| 23969s | players it would have been big funny |
| 23971s | astral puts them in the pit well reiner |
| 23974s | answering back saying who are you |
| 23976s | he's on a different team and probably |
| 23978s | won't play but |
| 23980s | either way he's keeping up with the |
| 23981s | trash talk here where are you i mean |
| 23983s | super rich has widely been absent in |
| 23985s | these last two maps |
| 23987s | consistently getting picked off by the |
| 23989s | likes of kepster |
| 23991s | see how he fares now is honjo sparker on |
| 23993s | their last legs need to win |
| 23995s | here on lighthouse extend this to ruins |
| 23997s | if they want to be able to take the |
| 23998s | series otherwise the gladiators |
| 24000s | looking like they may just be able to |
| 24002s | move forward |
| 24003s | irony taken down dealt with off the rip |
| 24006s | shoot does fall as well |
| 24009s | hp but somehow he still manages to come |
| 24011s | up with a kill shine collapses it gets |
| 24013s | that elimination on him a little bit of |
| 24016s | a trade up here as paddy will go down to |
| 24017s | the back end of the fight funny astro as |
| 24018s | well under some duress does get cleaned |
| 24021s | up super rich making his name known |
| 24023s | the cap was there for the hong kong |
| 24024s | spark so they begin ticking up oh and |
| 24027s | the easy drop down there as well sip |
| 24028s | some p |
| 24030s | stole that t baby all right super rich |
| 24032s | like you said you want to see a little |
| 24033s | bit more that's four final blows coming |
| 24034s | through so far |
| 24035s | not like gladiators funny astra though |
| 24037s | getting that opening pick again super |
| 24039s | impressive from funny asteroid to be |
| 24041s | able to do that i think it's on plays |
| 24043s | like irony most importantly and ryan |
| 24045s | being able to trade himself shoot with |
| 24046s | the only pick now though |
| 24048s | dealt with |
| 24050s | good sniping from chill |
| 24052s | flip nearly there again bernard moving |
| 24054s | forward keeps the point contested recall |
| 24056s | gonna be burned by shy pulse bomb goes |
| 24058s | out clips on the rhino but it's not |
| 24059s | gonna be enough for a kill the |
| 24060s | gladiators they managed to take the |
| 24062s | point in all the chaos fourth pump at |
| 24063s | the ready they're super rich stuck once |
| 24065s | more |
| 24066s | and kepster |
| 24067s | knocks him right back into obscurity |
| 24070s | a great kill and i i can't see it |
| 24072s | because of the chat yeah he said easy as |
| 24074s | well i was gonna say his camera's |
| 24075s | blocking but now i can see it |
| 24080s | we know when the trash talk comes on |
| 24081s | through and this is by the way like map |
| 24084s | number five uh loser goes down a lower |
| 24086s | bracket |
| 24088s | gladiators have double support ultimates |
| 24090s | online trying to control the points |
| 24092s | should be the 37 online pretty soon for |
| 24094s | themselves as well alphae |
| 24096s | in a lot of trouble actually showers are |
| 24098s | dead |
| 24102s | good from funny astro continues to look |
| 24104s | absolutely excellent |
| 24106s | i'll be getting right on top of shield |
| 24108s | nothing that realistically he could have |
| 24109s | done all that wow you know maybe nailing |
| 24111s | his sleep dark but two kills coming in |
| 24112s | funny answer does drop the beat offering |
| 24114s | up that shielding to the three members |
| 24116s | of the live on the side of the |
| 24117s | gladiators and so far they still do |
| 24118s | maintain control of this point as super |
| 24120s | rich was sent back to the squadron once |
| 24122s | more bernard cut off |
| 24124s | he's getting out in front of him finds |
| 24125s | that elimination and spark |
| 24127s | doesn't seem like they're gonna be able |
| 24128s | to get onto the point this time |
| 24131s | boss goes out again this time it will go |
| 24133s | wide but the nanoblade is about to be on |
| 24134s | live had it been nine away from it after |
| 24136s | you copy over towards the tracer one of |
| 24137s | his key heroes double tracers on board |
| 24139s | now for spot |
| 24140s | can you get a pulse bombing if it builds |
| 24142s | it up can he find a nice target to stick |
| 24143s | paddy pan pulling out the blade man it |
| 24145s | up shoe fighting the opening kill shy |
| 24147s | goes down |
| 24148s | i'll be here he did get a pulse but |
| 24150s | didn't get anything with it right before |
| 24151s | he gets a second |
| 24152s | does get taken out |
| 24154s | back into the raw echo form beam comes |
| 24156s | through does fine reiner patty pan low |
| 24158s | the whip shop from super rich we'll |
| 24159s | finish them off they continue to look to |
| 24161s | contest this point and get this flip |
| 24162s | into their favor super rich continues to |
| 24164s | clean them up look for a little bit more |
| 24166s | now with funny answer going down they |
| 24167s | should be able to get this but |
| 24168s | gladiators are thinking about ninety |
| 24169s | percent this is still dire straight for |
| 24171s | the hong kong spark |
| 24173s | well alpha yi is able to get a number of |
| 24175s | kills there i mean just a little while |
| 24176s | before you see him floating down |
| 24178s | something about floating like a |
| 24179s | butterfly singing like a bee i'm sure to |
| 24181s | get the kill to shoo in more |
| 24183s | hunger spark like you mentioned it's |
| 24184s | gonna be a bit of a hill to climb they |
| 24185s | are behind quite significantly so i |
| 24187s | would love to get a stick there but |
| 24188s | we'll miss |
| 24190s | doesn't get the connection good auntie |
| 24192s | out on the two slows up the supports a |
| 24193s | little bit buys them some spaces kepster |
| 24196s | looking for the back cap look nearly |
| 24198s | there shy has to contest he moves |
| 24199s | forward this chemistry just plays around |
| 24201s | the winston bubble to keep himself |
| 24202s | protected |
| 24204s | does now expire |
| 24205s | force the recall it's right here back |
| 24206s | here on the point half the dash out |
| 24208s | the flip is through gladiators back in |
| 24210s | control all right they're going to be |
| 24211s | taking it out for the moment she going |
| 24212s | to be taken down kev's there pulse bomb |
| 24214s | nearly at the ready jumps forward he's |
| 24216s | looking for irony but he cannot get that |
| 24217s | elimination falls low manages to stay |
| 24219s | alive 99 now in for the side of the |
| 24222s | gladiators the flip nearly there once |
| 24223s | more from the side of the hanzo's part |
| 24224s | they clear the point they get it 70 |
| 24226s | percent as bernard crashes through two |
| 24228s | to get the eliminations they're back in |
| 24230s | control and it's gonna be final fight |
| 24231s | territory once more for both teams |
| 24234s | south bear plus primal though i mean |
| 24235s | this one can go the distance gladiators |
| 24236s | have a lot of resources left to play |
| 24238s | through rally plus mines and duke for |
| 24240s | the hundreds you need to see a good |
| 24241s | dupe out alpha yi would really not want |
| 24243s | to see the dupe onto funny ashes lucio |
| 24245s | again ideally after he gets either |
| 24247s | kepster or powder pan for a trace or |
| 24249s | genji those are ideal picks because he |
| 24251s | has signature picks on those |
| 24252s | bernard waiting gets a slight poop there |
| 24254s | they're looking for shoes out there |
| 24255s | comes in from funny astro keeps diana |
| 24257s | alive auntie out on the rider falling |
| 24260s | slow pops the primal the flip getting |
| 24262s | ready to come through back over onto the |
| 24263s | point so far the recontest has not |
| 24266s | happened lp dips in manches |
| 24269s | to lock it in the dupe comes through |
| 24271s | this is more gonna be over onto the |
| 24272s | tracer the point cleared out the |
| 24274s | gladiators they step back through they |
| 24276s | give the flip to merch now gonna be |
| 24277s | taking down funny astro breaks it open |
| 24278s | once more shoe gonna be eliminated funny |
| 24281s | after down to about half hp continues to |
| 24282s | get whittled away at the pulse bomb from |
| 24284s | shy not gonna find anything |
| 24286s | sedan was out of luck he's looking to |
| 24288s | clean him up and rider gonna be taken |
| 24289s | down bunny astro now looking to delay as |
| 24291s | much as he possibly can stop this foot |
| 24293s | from coming through sticky bombs offered |
| 24295s | up over the side does get kept in the |
| 24296s | blade pulled by patty pan dashes through |
| 24298s | cuts down bernard looks for a little bit |
| 24300s | more he's gonna get shy he gets super |
| 24301s | rich he gets absolutely everybody |
| 24304s | they clear them off the point the |
| 24305s | gladiators will manage to take it |
| 24308s | a 2-0 on illios a 3-2 in the series they |
| 24311s | stay in the upper bracket |
| 24315s | pop off there from panapan on the genji |
| 24317s | towards the end they're massive |
| 24318s | celebrations they know how hard this |
| 24320s | game was |
| 24322s | spark put up a monstrous performance but |
| 24324s | when it comes down to the end a |
| 24326s | brilliant colosseum map leading to an |
| 24327s | elios 2 and 0. powder pan with a play of |
| 24329s | the game selected in the game there as |
| 24331s | well a genji blade to save the day and |
| 24334s | prevent the third round from being |
| 24336s | executed by the hangzhou spark denying |
| 24339s | that tracer dupe as well that could have |
| 24342s | been everything for the spark but it |
| 24344s | doesn't end up doing much for them and |
| 24345s | the la glady is i think the funny astro |
| 24347s | sub in on maps four and five was so damn |
| 24351s | impactful for this team |
| 24354s | right when they needed him the most |
| 24355s | patty coming up with a big blade after a |
| 24357s | couple botched ones from that first |
| 24359s | round of ilios the hangzhou sparked this |
| 24362s | is not the end of the road for them but |
| 24363s | this is definitely going to be a very |
| 24365s | bittersweet moment because now they have |
| 24368s | to fall down and try to knock out their |
| 24370s | cohorts from aipac in the philly fusion |
| 24373s | yeah so apac will be eliminating itself |
| 24375s | come tomorrow i suppose but the |
| 24377s | gladiators they stick around now they |
| 24380s | have to just sit back relax wait and see |
| 24382s | who their opponent is going to be after |
| 24384s | we get through that next series between |
| 24385s | shanghai and the shock our player of the |
| 24388s | match though i think uh after the last |
| 24390s | couple maps there could really only go |
| 24392s | one way it's gonna be kevster picking it |
| 24394s | up that coliseum performance from him on |
| 24396s | the tracer was just absolutely gorgeous |
| 24399s | and it didn't stop on coliseum either |
| 24401s | because we saw how impactful he was on |
| 24402s | elias as well yeah just really had a |
| 24404s | field day on that tracer i mean kepster |
| 24406s | came up so massively on those last two |
| 24408s | maps |
| 24409s | uh it's the funny extra substitution |
| 24411s | it's the caps the tracer the paddy blade |
| 24413s | right at the end there as well reined |
| 24415s | actually performing super well on that |
| 24417s | winston on a map that i think |
| 24418s | traditionally would be better suited for |
| 24419s | the doom and the the ball but you know |
| 24421s | rhino kept it up he didn't have that |
| 24423s | many deaths especially on that opening |
| 24424s | well |
| 24425s | kevin's at the end of the day though i i |
| 24427s | think coliseum would not have gone as |
| 24428s | clean for this team if it wasn't for how |
| 24430s | damn good kefstar was on the straights |
| 24432s | for the sticks with everything else with |
| 24433s | lining up the dives the rest of the team |
| 24436s | uh really was just a brilliant |
| 24437s | performance coming through from the |
| 24438s | gladiators yeah very well-rounded i mean |
| 24441s | funny astro stepping in uh for those |
| 24443s | lasting maps and he looked absolutely |
| 24445s | phenomenal still incredibly well |
| 24447s | practiced on the lucio and one of the |
| 24448s | best in the world in that regard but |
| 24450s | kevster |
| 24451s | absolutely putting up figures here for |
| 24453s | his squad was just |
| 24456s | such an incredible uh performance from |
| 24458s | him on the tracer he just took over and |
| 24460s | did not like you said he did not back |
| 24462s | down going into illios he maintained |
| 24463s | that level of performance from kozio |
| 24466s | and i gotta say as well i think that the |
| 24468s | key map for me in this particular series |
| 24469s | is actually midtown we have to kind of |
| 24471s | rewind that second one because that was |
| 24472s | the one that i felt like uh was |
| 24475s | blundered massively from the spark right |
| 24477s | that b's like defensive c9 has to be one |
| 24480s | that you revisit because i think the |
| 24482s | rest of the series was very close very |
| 24483s | competitive but the one part of the |
| 24485s | series it does stick out like a sore |
| 24487s | thumb that's um you know was just |
| 24490s | not good overwatch i mean if we say that |
| 24491s | the overall game was great overwatch |
| 24493s | that one piece unfortunately was not |
| 24495s | that's something that sticks out for the |
| 24496s | spark really poorly the rest of it was |
| 24498s | very competitive and very enjoyable to |
| 24500s | watch but midtown uh is going to be an |
| 24502s | unfortunate position for the spark to be |
| 24504s | in and i think for the gladiators as |
| 24505s | well if you want to see |
| 24507s | just what i consider to be perfect macro |
| 24509s | on the defense especially that a side |
| 24510s | defense gladiators executed beyond what |
| 24513s | i've seen any team do just brilliant |
| 24515s | tactics uh they knew exactly how to play |
| 24517s | that map yeah it was perfect and it's |
| 24519s | something about midtown just always has |
| 24521s | incidents occurring but this time it's |
| 24522s | the hongsho spark who fall victim to it |
| 24524s | like i said who's gonna come back to |
| 24526s | bite them in the rear if they lost this |
| 24527s | series and i think that that one is |
| 24528s | gonna be weighing on their minds for a |
| 24530s | little bit but it's about shaking loose |
| 24532s | you know not focusing on those mistakes |
| 24534s | from this series being able to clear |
| 24536s | heads and move forward for that series |
| 24537s | tomorrow against the fusion so we'll see |
| 24539s | if the hogs just spark you know how they |
| 24541s | can bounce back from this and see |
| 24542s | whether or not the gladiators can |
| 24543s | maintain this dominance but we have to |
| 24545s | figure out first who they're going to be |
| 24546s | playing against that's going to be in |
| 24548s | our next series with the shanghai |
| 24549s | dragons taking on at the san francisco |
| 24551s | shock but first we'll have the desk |
| 24553s | break down the action from this |
| 24554s | incredible five map series after the |
| 24555s | break |

| 24840s | gladiators patty |
| 24842s | what a match what a match and that last |
| 24844s | uh team fight and that clutch moment can |
| 24847s | you just briefly tell us what was going |
| 24848s | through your head when you were playing |
| 24850s | uh pulling out that genji blade with a |
| 24852s | with funny astro by her side i mean yeah |
| 24854s | i was betting the entire team i was |
| 24857s | betting shoe betting right there rating |
| 24858s | everybody um |
| 24860s | but i wouldn't be able to pull pull that |
| 24862s | off against a like better team such as |
| 24865s | chalk or something like |
| 24867s | i think |
| 24868s | it's not me being good it's just |
| 24871s | it's just it's a shot it's just it's a |
| 24873s | spark just |
| 24874s | not that good yeah yeah |
| 24877s | so if it was any other team it wouldn't |
| 24878s | have worked like good good team it |
| 24880s | wouldn't work but it worked because |
| 24882s | because they are bad okay you guys can |
| 24883s | fill in the blink i mean yeah i mean |
| 24885s | that was that was great um about the |
| 24887s | spark though because they did really |
| 24889s | give you the run for your money and were |
| 24891s | there anything that sort of surprised |
| 24892s | you going up against the spark i mean |
| 24895s | did this surprise me from a minor region |
| 24898s | um |

| 24918s | spark i mean i would like to shout out |
| 24920s | to shai um |
| 24921s | i used to play against him like on like |
| 24924s | four years ago on world cup |
| 24926s | 2018 |
| 24928s | i was playing against china team and |
| 24930s | i don't think he improved that much but |
| 24934s | he's still a good player like he didn't |
| 24936s | surprise me he improved a little bit a |
| 24938s | little bit a little bit i lived i left |
| 24940s | this game for two years and then he came |
| 24941s | back and won him like i don't know |
| 24943s | all right and my final question for you |
| 24945s | fatty is um you guys will be going up |

| 24948s | which is san francisco shark versus uh |
| 24950s | shanghai dragons who do you think is |
| 24952s | going to win |

| 24957s | good because shark is good i believe my |
| 24959s | boy flopper |

| 24975s | i'm weak |
| 24979s | thank you very much danny what was that |
| 24981s | i i'm reading between the lines here |
| 24983s | paddy pan is being held hostage by |
| 24985s | hunter to trash talk the eastern region |
| 24988s | johnny how are you feeling about |
| 24990s | everything that |
| 24991s | he said like spark is bad not cool and |
| 24994s | shy is bad as well hasn't improved in |
| 24996s | years i mean i you know on if he wants |
| 24999s | to say that i think that reflects more |
| 25000s | poorly on him |
| 25003s | then it does shine |
| 25007s | is real and everyone is being real for |
| 25009s | recognizing shai besides party pond so |
| 25014s | i don't know what's going on polyphant |
| 25015s | come on |
| 25016s | it was on top antu is holding him i |
| 25018s | think we blame the australians contrast |
| 25019s | them yeah yeah australians yeah no |
| 25022s | powderpoint is actually a very nice kid |
| 25023s | yeah he's very good he did seem very |
| 25025s | nice he couldn't even trash talk and |
| 25026s | hold a steady face |
| 25028s | keeling over hitting the floor going |
| 25029s | like no no no just kidding just back |
| 25031s | pedal back pedal but |
| 25033s | don't don't backpedal communicate with |
| 25035s | yeah commit to do it with vigor uh it's |
| 25038s | a work in progress |
| 25039s | home grand finals it'd be great you need |
| 25042s | reiner to come back and then teach him a |
| 25044s | little bit and get him to you know tea |
| 25046s | bag dab whatever it was that reiner |
| 25048s | pulled off before but guys let's start |
| 25049s | talking about this series because again |
| 25052s | another five map game gladiators really |
| 25055s | came out and especially on that final |
| 25058s | map there was only one person's name |
| 25059s | that we were absolutely screaming from |
| 25061s | the rooftops and scott who was it my boy |
| 25064s | funny astro came in clutch i like that |
| 25067s | sort of pinch hitter because he did the |
| 25069s | same thing on coliseum as well he came |
| 25070s | in he played that lucille and i really |
| 25072s | like what they did because opposed to |
| 25074s | what patty fans say shy absolutely |
| 25077s | dominated them in like the first couple |
| 25079s | of minutes not even close not even close |
| 25080s | he was deadlifting |
| 25082s | the best team in the world he was |
| 25083s | absolutely dominating but my boy finding |
| 25084s | astra comes here on illios look at these |
| 25087s | stats six final blows five deaths but |
| 25089s | look at the healing done and the damage |
| 25091s | done on lucio he got so many important |
| 25094s | frags going absolutely crazy really |
| 25096s | getting the gladiators over the line and |
| 25099s | honestly it just enables everyone else |
| 25101s | to play their game so i wanted to give |
| 25102s | him a special shout out because i think |
| 25104s | you know he came in clutching the |
| 25106s | kickoff clash he's done it once again in |
| 25107s | the mid-season tournament there were so |
| 25109s | many points throughout that series as |
| 25110s | well where you had like all the stats in |
| 25112s | front of you and you're going like funny |
| 25114s | astro has the same amount of damage as |
| 25116s | such and such and he's actually like |
| 25118s | well it's funny because you know patty |
| 25120s | pen just did a lot of trash talking but |
| 25121s | like i'm at the end of this helios mouth |
| 25123s | i'm looking at the stats i'm like funny |
| 25124s | astro has more damage than paddy pan |
| 25127s | and i'm like |
| 25129s | funny astros doing a lot of work |
| 25130s | hey hey he won the game with the blade |
| 25132s | right now he carried he totally carried |
| 25135s | yeah that was great come out with it at |
| 25137s | the end i think we have like a couple |
| 25138s | highlights from that series that we |
| 25140s | could go ahead and take a look at but |
| 25141s | again gladiators really coming out and |
| 25143s | showing up in that final map where it |
| 25145s | mattered most but unfortunately spark |
| 25146s | just |
| 25148s | what happened all right so is this my |
| 25150s | therapy session now like what was going |
| 25151s | on here i mean look okay i |
| 25154s | you know i do think that wow i'm just |
| 25156s | immediately jumping to the cope here we |
| 25158s | go |
| 25159s | was like the better team when it came to |
| 25161s | like the neutral battle when they were |
| 25162s | able to play the zenyatta tracer um the |
| 25165s | shot was able to play the ash and the |
| 25166s | soldier like this performance here on |
| 25169s | oasis was like amazing like they ran |
| 25172s | circles around the l.a gladiators uh |
| 25174s | whether it was with the wrecking ball |
| 25175s | the tracer alafaye had like a |
| 25178s | mind-blowing game on tracer as well just |
| 25181s | keep finding these picks and then shy on |
| 25182s | dorado like these guys popped off like |
| 25186s | the stuff i haven't seen since like |
| 25188s | shanghai dragons like last year in |
| 25190s | dallas field when they were like at the |
| 25191s | very peak of the game it was an |
| 25193s | unbelievable series but what was even |
| 25196s | better like what made the series so |
| 25198s | complete it's like what we talked about |
| 25199s | it was the funny astro substitute the |
| 25201s | lucio pic to speed up the tempo and |
| 25204s | prevent tangjon spark from being able to |
| 25206s | play their style i mean we're going to |
| 25208s | the dorado highlights here like |
| 25211s | i mean just enjoy it like really |
| 25214s | this was an unbelievable performance |
| 25216s | from shai um this might be like a top |
| 25218s | three top five carry performances we've |
| 25220s | ever seen in the overwatch league on a |
| 25223s | map this dorado so you gotta give credit |
| 25225s | to where credit is you um but you also |
| 25228s | have to recognize that it's so hard to |
| 25230s | make these on-the-spot substitutions |
| 25232s | that the ellicott did with funny astro |
| 25234s | because we always criticize on the desk |
| 25236s | we always criticize like you know |
| 25237s | they're subbing this guy in for map five |
| 25239s | and it doesn't make any sense and it's |
| 25240s | because these teams they stick to their |
| 25242s | regiment they stick to their game |
| 25243s | planning what they've practiced but |
| 25246s | this almost certainly i mean we don't |
| 25248s | know but this almost certainly was like |
| 25249s | an undefined decision to sub in funny |
| 25251s | astro and speed it up and i have to |
| 25253s | recognize like the brilliance the |
| 25255s | strategic brilliance of that and how it |
| 25257s | paid off beautifully to beat the spark |
| 25258s | who in my mind was the better team from |
| 25260s | the start of the match well i think |
| 25262s | towards the end you really saw the |
| 25263s | differences in the coordination and as |
| 25266s | you said the adaptation because on the |
| 25268s | other hand we credit the gladiators for |
| 25269s | that funny astro lucio swap on coliseum |
| 25272s | bernard went from wrecking ball to zaya |
| 25274s | for 30 seconds to wrecking ball to zaya |
| 25277s | in the last little second was not better |
| 25279s | teams but they had the better pop-up |
| 25281s | players they had the better |
| 25282s | team |
| 25283s | yeah but i think that's something that |
| 25284s | spock has always been known for it seems |
| 25286s | like they're starting to fill in those |
| 25287s | holes a little bit and it hasn't been as |
| 25289s | bad in the playoffs but definitely in |
| 25291s | this match when they got pushed against |
| 25293s | the wall when all of a sudden the |
| 25294s | gladiators like you can't just keep |
| 25295s | relying on try to pop off they sort of |
| 25297s | fell apart but you know this shy |
| 25299s | performance is really the standout thing |
| 25301s | and i i always worry about the spark of |
| 25302s | like if shy can't do that every time we |
| 25305s | see shy not pop off in the way that |
| 25306s | we're about to say like it's just |
| 25308s | it's kind of hard to watch a little bit |
| 25310s | because after he has been stepping up |
| 25312s | but |
| 25313s | if without shy if you take shai out of |
| 25315s | the game and he doesn't show up that's |
| 25316s | what happens in these last two maps that |
| 25318s | we saw from the gladiators but |
| 25320s | yeah i mean at the same time though like |
| 25322s | i i completely agree with you that like |
| 25324s | liars have the better team synergy and |
| 25326s | you know teamwork but also like this is |
| 25329s | hangzhou sparkle recognizing how |
| 25331s | powerful sojourn can be when you put so |
| 25333s | many resources into sojourn yeah it was |
| 25336s | not just like shy just like popping the |
| 25337s | overclock and just like oh i'm just |
| 25338s | gonna shoot all these people like yes |
| 25340s | that was obviously like what you see but |
| 25342s | it's also super rich with a really good |
| 25344s | brigitte performance it's like the armor |
| 25346s | packs the inspire like rotating all |
| 25348s | these supportive cooldowns to put that |
| 25350s | resources into shy like that's the |
| 25352s | reason why they beat seoul dynasty the |
| 25354s | other day because their backline was so |
| 25356s | efficient and so good at taking care of |
| 25357s | each other so you really saw that at |
| 25359s | like the highest level in this series |
| 25361s | too so |
| 25363s | you know what just came to my mind no i |
| 25365s | know just reminded me of the 2018 |
| 25368s | shanghai dragons when they put all of |
| 25370s | their resources into undead and just |
| 25372s | tried to pop off but now they actually |
| 25374s | have shy so it works so honestly the old |
| 25377s | 40 shanghai dragons are under something |
| 25379s | they don't have shy you are cool |
| 25385s | how dare you i'm just saying maybe they |
| 25387s | had merit that is cursed we should get |
| 25389s | out of here |
| 25391s | with the correct predictions right now |
| 25392s | mr three and two sparks okay all right |
| 25395s | you know what makes me feel better |
| 25398s | you're a fusion fan so enjoy you know |
| 25400s | your little parade |
| 25402s | about the rain houston that was a great |
| 25404s | match here today good pick there right |
| 25406s | yeah houston yeah dang it jake |
| 25410s | anyways that being said this game coming |
| 25412s | to its conclusion gladiators are |
| 25414s | continuing onwards in that upper bracket |
| 25416s | we could go ahead and take a look at all |
| 25418s | of our updated brackets as it is and |
| 25420s | remember the spark is still in it |
| 25421s | they're just going to be dropping down |
| 25423s | lower so here we go we have the winner's |
| 25425s | bracket and there as you see the |
| 25426s | gladiators moving on to that next match |
| 25428s | you can also take a look at the lower |
| 25430s | bracket and see where the spark are |
| 25433s | falling down into |
| 25434s | and that's right i said oh wait oh no no |
| 25437s | way |
| 25451s | don't worry everything we just saw it's |
| 25452s | not gonna happen to philly it's fine you |
| 25454s | have said some things |
| 25456s | me and the spark and the teacup were |
| 25459s | coming for you all right |
| 25461s | i'm so scared of script shy don't worry |
| 25463s | philly always pull through in the end |
| 25466s | super rich i'm putting on the cattle |
| 25468s | let's go |
| 25470s | rebuild oh i don't feel good about this |
| 25472s | at all but guys we still do have one |
| 25474s | more all right oh my god |
| 25476s | one more prediction for us to |
| 25478s | potentially all get right or wrong and |
| 25480s | that's going to be the shock taken on |
| 25481s | the shanghai dragons now as we get into |
| 25483s | that game i know we heard about the |
| 25485s | resumes i heard we heard about a lot of |
| 25487s | uh thoughts in the pre-show which was |
| 25489s | like |
| 25490s | very long oh very long i'm not even |
| 25492s | wearing a watch that's how |
| 25495s | long of a time ago it was but just quick |
| 25497s | thoughts before we get into that game |
| 25499s | uh i think i went for the shock and you |
| 25500s | went for shanghai right yeah yeah i i |
| 25503s | think it's going to be an interesting |
| 25504s | match it was |
| 25506s | i i honestly have the shock i'm pretty |
| 25508s | confident in them i really like what |
| 25510s | they've been doing with colluge with |
| 25511s | proper and all that kind of stuff |
| 25513s | shanghai dragons they've looked shaky |
| 25515s | you know fate says he has tricks up |
| 25517s | their sleeve but i'm not sold |
| 25518s | i just need lip to pop off |
| 25520s | [Laughter] |
| 25522s | we can just change the names honestly |
| 25524s | just change the names that's honestly |
| 25526s | like that's kind of what it's shanghai |
| 25528s | they played pretty similar to angel |
| 25529s | spark yeah they put all their faith in |
| 25531s | lip being able to pop off on the sojourn |
| 25535s | and then san francisco shocked a |
| 25536s | strategic team play well not really but |
| 25539s | you know they they pay diva so that's a |
| 25540s | strategic thing i guess |
| 25542s | look lip just pop off all right that's |
| 25544s | all i ask i couldn't do it but |
| 25546s | apparently i'm an apex synth now so here |
| 25548s | we are all right that's totally fine |
| 25550s | being a simple is fine now i do have to |
| 25551s | ask |
| 25553s | thank you |
| 25554s | no we shouldn't think we shouldn't stay |
| 25555s | on broadcast |
| 25556s | exactly what he just said i'm just |
| 25558s | repeating it as a new kid here |
| 25561s | i want to get your predictions before we |
| 25562s | get into this uh fourth and final game |
| 25564s | of the day so custo let's get you i hope |
| 25566s | we go to another map by banger honestly |
| 25568s | i i like quick pause before we move on |
| 25571s | this has been some of the best overwatch |
| 25572s | we've seen one of the best tournaments |
| 25573s | we've ever had there's been so many |
| 25575s | close matches i hope this one goes the |
| 25577s | distance as well they're all great teams |
| 25578s | and great players so you're back uh map |
| 25580s | five san francisco show wins yeah quick |
| 25583s | three-year-old dragons |
| 25585s | i'm gonna be honest i don't remember |
| 25586s | what i predicted but i do want to see a |
| 25588s | full five maps as well so you know 3-2 |
| 25591s | with whatever i wrote this morning |
| 25592s | everyone we're gonna take a quick break |
| 25594s | but stick around because when we get |
| 25595s | back we're gonna get into that final |

| 25847s | and we are back it's time for the final |
| 25849s | series of the evening and oh boy have we |
| 25852s | been saving the best for last a long |
| 25855s | standing rivalry between these two |
| 25856s | organizations it's the shanghai dragons |
| 25858s | going up against the san francisco |
| 25860s | shock it's been a good long while since |
| 25863s | we've seen these two clash now it's here |
| 25864s | and overwatch too different roster on |
| 25866s | the opposite side shanghai dragons |
| 25868s | widely looking the same now it's time |
| 25870s | for them to make battle and see who |
| 25871s | comes out on top |
| 25873s | it's crazy that you're saying saving the |
| 25875s | best for last is what we just got is |
| 25876s | going to be hard to top look |
| 25878s | usually |
| 25879s | five minute fridays uh today is actually |
| 25882s | friday for the two of us so five bet |
| 25884s | friday officially activated we're gonna |
| 25885s | take this all the way again |
| 25888s | this is going to be epic though it |
| 25889s | should be but uh look san francisco |
| 25891s | shock shanghai dragons |
| 25892s | two championship teams two of the best |
| 25894s | teams in overwatch history with london |
| 25896s | gone now because the only two |
| 25898s | championship teams franchise wise that |
| 25900s | remain in this tournament now clashing |
| 25902s | in the upper bracket |
| 25904s | we had glads versus hangzhou being so |
| 25906s | damn good yeah i think this uh this |
| 25908s | match has got to deliver us all it has |
| 25910s | to |
| 25910s | yeah i mean so many people saying like |
| 25913s | that was you know maybe one of the best |
| 25914s | series that we've we've had so far in |
| 25916s | overwatch league here in 2022 uh let's |
| 25918s | say you know oh that last matchup goes |
| 25920s | up into the the top matches of all time |
| 25923s | i think this one could absolutely take |
| 25924s | the cake and if it doesn't honestly it |
| 25926s | feels like we will have been robbed |
| 25928s | because these two teams this absolutely |
| 25930s | should go to the distance it should be |
| 25931s | an incredible match between the two |
| 25933s | here's the starting five for the side of |
| 25935s | the shanghai dragons you and i were |
| 25937s | talking a little bit earlier when we're |
| 25938s | hanging out with mr uh uh connor prince |
| 25941s | and uh you said we're probably not gonna |
| 25943s | see lee j god but here he is from the |
| 25945s | outset |
| 25947s | i was joking though because they were |
| 25949s | they were they were meaning on him but |
| 25951s | they forget that lee jay gone uh and the |
| 25953s | map one versus dallas fuel absolutely |
| 25955s | carried on that break |
| 25956s | but the man that you have to worry about |
| 25958s | is left we talked about sergeants which |
| 25959s | saw how good shai was lip is also an |
| 25962s | absolute freaking not just on the |
| 25963s | solution but also on that water maker so |
| 25965s | there's an opportunity especially on |
| 25966s | that map free of escort whatever it ends |
| 25968s | up being if lip can play the water maker |
| 25969s | again |
| 25970s | it could get very interesting kilo's got |
| 25973s | his work cut out for him but these two |
| 25974s | teams in 2022 cannot be more different |
| 25978s | you have the shanghai dragons with not a |
| 25980s | single rookie on this team as a team for |
| 25982s | the veterans a team for the champions a |
| 25984s | team for the mvp candidates roll stars |
| 25986s | you name it and on the other end |
| 25989s | are some of the top rookies in the |
| 25991s | entire world all coalesced onto a single |
| 25993s | roster led by violet really is uncle |
| 25996s | violet and i think it is the count now |
| 25998s | six rookies on the squad with violet the |
| 26002s | prime of them being obviously proper |
| 26004s | second left on the screen this is the |
| 26005s | guy you gotta talk about um desk is |
| 26008s | again contractually obliged to talk |
| 26010s | about him at all times and probably for |
| 26011s | good reason i think he is still the top |
| 26013s | rookie that we have had so far and has |
| 26015s | been the top performer every single time |
| 26016s | that shot get into trouble this guy |
| 26018s | bails them out he is phenomenal |
| 26022s | yeah he's just been taking the league in |
| 26024s | north america by storm now gets to try |
| 26027s | his hand against the current reigning |
| 26029s | champions who have been getting back |
| 26031s | into form as of late obviously an |
| 26033s | incredibly rough start to the season for |
| 26035s | the side of the shanghai dragons they |
| 26036s | were playing under incredible you know |
| 26038s | circumstances given the lockdowns that |
| 26040s | they were undergoing but still did |
| 26042s | manage to put up some solid numbers now |
| 26044s | that they are back in the team house now |
| 26045s | that they're back on camera they have |
| 26047s | really been tapping back into that 2021 |
| 26051s | potential that we saw from them that got |
| 26052s | them the championship victory we'll see |
| 26055s | how they fare now going up against the |
| 26057s | two time |
| 26059s | and there's a seven match win streak for |
| 26062s | the san francisco shop that has not been |
| 26064s | broken |
| 26065s | their last loss was actually versus the |
| 26067s | dallas field in the kickoff clash |
| 26068s | tournament in dallas itself live since |
| 26071s | then |
| 26072s | seven straight wins |
| 26074s | haven't lost |
| 26075s | looking phenomenal shanghai dragons |
| 26077s | though might prove to be the toughest |
| 26079s | competition for the shock yet the last |
| 26082s | time that these two teams met it was in |
| 26084s | that playoffs run when moon picked shock |
| 26087s | in the opening round and 3-0 then krusty |
| 26090s | didn't want to pick dragons this time |
| 26091s | but the dragons will find you anyway |
| 26093s | let's kick things off here back on oasis |
| 26096s | it's going to be university key thing to |
| 26098s | note is that colluge and kilo and |
| 26100s | usually you see mikey on this map |
| 26102s | playing the ball you get sam in here |
| 26103s | playing bit of sojourn as well but it is |
| 26105s | going to be a different look for the |
| 26106s | shock they've been holding this in their |
| 26107s | sleeves |
| 26110s | let's see so far the teams who have been |
| 26112s | electing to take us to oasis haven't |
| 26114s | been coming up with wins on it can it be |
| 26116s | a different story for the side of the |
| 26118s | shock come into this as the number one |
| 26121s | seed overall |
| 26123s | gates have opened up |
| 26125s | minor differences here in the |
| 26127s | compositions no sojourn for the side of |
| 26128s | this shock you look |
| 26130s | here with the ash |
| 26133s | it's usually the airpack team that plays |
| 26134s | the the ash right into the team plays |
| 26136s | social but today we're gonna get a bit |
| 26138s | of an opposite experience flip feeling |
| 26140s | himself with the rails oh he survives he |
| 26142s | doesn't collusion |
| 26145s | diving in off the back of the dynamite |
| 26146s | finds that elimination now looks for a |
| 26148s | little bit more faith trying to make his |
| 26149s | exit but proper gets on top of him |
| 26152s | two quick kills here for the side of the |
| 26154s | shock the point lockdown goes their way |
| 26155s | with relative ease |
| 26158s | the proper as well on defletting me |
| 26160s | that's gonna be a very interesting match |
| 26161s | up |
| 26162s | flat out one of our historic best races |
| 26164s | that we've had on the mvp lip being |
| 26166s | taken down grandfather's mpp from last |
| 26168s | year |
| 26169s | shocked looking pretty good so far |
| 26172s | then just sat way back playing this off |
| 26174s | angle |
| 26175s | towards coast side |
| 26177s | lobbing in those right-click charge ups |
| 26178s | his fate under some pressure it does |
| 26180s | fall low is a yaki he'll just go ahead |
| 26182s | and nom up that healing though |
| 26184s | yeah go ahead keep getting chunked out |
| 26186s | long as you don't die i don't mind i |
| 26187s | want to get this nano up as quickly as i |
| 26188s | can right now looking to contest that |
| 26190s | high ground has to drop back down he's |
| 26191s | instantly evaporated great focus fire |
| 26194s | the discord orbs flying across finn the |
| 26197s | target selection in this regard has been |
| 26198s | utterly impeccable |
| 26201s | enemy in sight yeah slept there as well |
| 26203s | could have ended up with a kill but to |
| 26204s | get woken up very quickly |
| 26206s | very very slow start with the shanghai |
| 26208s | dragons zero kill so far not a single |
| 26210s | final blow yet to find an opening |
| 26213s | and four four the san francisco shock |
| 26214s | allowed them to get fifty percent okay |
| 26216s | dive into the battle first kill faith |
| 26218s | heard you talking smack shuts down kilo |
| 26220s | who's gonna be taking a nap and you're |
| 26222s | standing outside was able to go ahead |
| 26223s | and scoop the kill |
| 26225s | fade as well now going to be |
| 26226s | anti-sleeping it's uh not woken up but |
| 26228s | won't be taken down stay safe the flip |
| 26231s | is going to be there 63 locked in for |
| 26232s | the shock three times |
| 26234s | yeah just uh you know no opinions |
| 26236s | inserted there for me just stating the |
| 26237s | raw effects of it and the raw facts will |
| 26239s | have the shanghai dragons go from zero |
| 26241s | to five kills gonna be the entire san |
| 26243s | francisco shock taken down starts with |
| 26245s | fate and it ends with a cap 63 to catch |
| 26248s | up on though it is a bit of a distance |
| 26250s | to go in san francisco shock still have |
| 26252s | ultimates to play through they haven't |
| 26253s | really had to alt yet so here we go |
| 26255s | both teams looking to play through bob |
| 26257s | to probably open up this as well |
| 26260s | i think you being a similar mind to me |
| 26263s | off to hold that thought actually huge |
| 26264s | damage going through the nade comes in |
| 26266s | kilo and pilot |
| 26267s | getting a battle in as they look for the |
| 26269s | rest of the cleanup shot unable to |
| 26270s | create any kills |
| 26272s | what is gonna say you should know by now |
| 26273s | that people don't like to listen to |
| 26274s | facts they'll fight back against them |
| 26279s | he said shanghai are doing poorly he |
| 26281s | must be any bias there you go keep up |
| 26283s | make sure the energy is consistent at |
| 26284s | least make sure the energy is consistent |
| 26285s | guys shanghai dragons four ultimates now |
| 26288s | shock on five the catch-up is here so |
| 26291s | the |
| 26292s | opening kills from the dragons doesn't |
| 26293s | allow them to hold onto the point so far |
| 26295s | always finally big stick though violet |
| 26298s | out the nano boost did go forward on the |
| 26299s | collusion is now up into the air with |
| 26300s | the meteor strike bait going to be taken |
| 26302s | down aquila finds him once more |
| 26304s | they see it up collusion getting back up |
| 26305s | towards the point gets the punch there |
| 26306s | knocking limp away does come back in |
| 26309s | though gets a great head shot onto the |
| 26310s | enemy ash with the overclock rolling |
| 26312s | now shanghai dragons have taken the |
| 26315s | proper down as well |
| 26317s | making his presence known after kind of |
| 26319s | getting farmed in the early days but |
| 26320s | this is the lift we were anticipating a |
| 26322s | bit |
| 26323s | double kill after kill gets violent on |
| 26325s | the back end of the fight i believe |
| 26327s | that's four total throughout for him as |
| 26329s | they will maintain this control now |
| 26331s | shock last fight for them no wants to |
| 26333s | work with |
| 26336s | they have to come in collusion entering |
| 26337s | first and |
| 26338s | hope that they can keep them alive |
| 26339s | shanghai dragons they can just make this |
| 26341s | dive onto the back line lip is already |
| 26342s | still |
| 26343s | really far out look at the initial kill |
| 26345s | fake goes in |
| 26346s | there he does kilos out of him doing low |
| 26349s | kilo gonna be taking down fate finding |
| 26350s | the elimination over time forced out |
| 26353s | dive forward kalooz trying to take down |
| 26355s | lip 12 hp now down to seven proper |
| 26357s | manages to make his way forward gets |
| 26359s | that kill in the end shock having some |
| 26361s | presence here on the point but widely |
| 26363s | it's just colluge proper joining in once |
| 26365s | more the pulse bomb 23 percent away gets |
| 26367s | knocked back from the whip shot clutch |
| 26369s | emptied out has to make his exit for a |
| 26370s | brief moment fade as well so low and |
| 26372s | proper as it will chase he gets the |
| 26373s | melee hit they finish them off and that |
| 26375s | kill alone is enough for them to get the |
| 26376s | flipper they're back in control aj gone |
| 26378s | having to get his weight back |
| 26380s | everybody in an arm's length and now the |
| 26382s | shanghai dragons they're the ones who |
| 26383s | have to retake |
| 26385s | really clutch coming in from the shock |
| 26387s | assaulting you talk about retakes they |
| 26389s | lost kilo early on they still contest |
| 26391s | and still grinded out there fights a |
| 26392s | shark signs on life importantly that |
| 26395s | could have been disastrous for them but |
| 26397s | major plays especially proper result |
| 26398s | that we saw getting fake down putting a |
| 26401s | blink into the mega lake flatter on the |
| 26402s | hunter has been spotted dodges asleep |
| 26404s | though the pulse goes out into the wall |
| 26407s | but finn still gets dropped then it was |
| 26408s | now going to be used collusion the |
| 26410s | recipient once more |
| 26411s | profit the proper rather on the hunt the |
| 26414s | stick is good lift knocked out of the |
| 26416s | fight meteor strike going to be used |
| 26418s | staying safe the flipping of the |
| 26418s | meantime has been there for the side of |
| 26420s | the dragons they retake control of the |
| 26421s | point |
| 26423s | they still need a hell of a lot more if |
| 26424s | they want to win this one the t's |
| 26425s | bleeding away no one's able to touch |
| 26427s | flutter cleaning up two in the back end |
| 26429s | the shanghai dragons will nearly walk |
| 26431s | away with a win on university |
| 26434s | a c9 i'm going to call that right now uh |
| 26436s | everyone was basically dead on the shark |
| 26438s | probably had to recall away kilo and |
| 26440s | finn not really expected touch there |
| 26441s | when college dies in proper recall it's |
| 26444s | basically done five alive on dragons |
| 26446s | versus three and dragons will finish |
| 26448s | things off a very slow start |
| 26450s | exceptionally low start there for |
| 26451s | dragons i believe it was first 50 for |
| 26453s | the shock that they had capped out |
| 26455s | dragons had zero final blows not a |
| 26457s | single kill from dragons when shotgun 50 |
| 26460s | on the cap |
| 26461s | dragons will end that round with 19 |
| 26463s | frags from zero to 19 |
| 26465s | in quite a quick fashion you know |
| 26467s | shanghai |
| 26468s | usually called you know the shang ai |
| 26471s | they take a little bit of time to |
| 26472s | download the stretch from the other team |
| 26473s | download what the other team are doing |
| 26475s | once that download has started we'll see |
| 26477s | where it ends san francisco shock now |
| 26478s | rolling out pretty much the same |
| 26479s | composition as before dragon's now |
| 26481s | playing ball with fletter on the echo |
| 26484s | and a little lip tracer as well |
| 26487s | leaching on |
| 26489s | instantly knocked down low stays alive |
| 26493s | just goes rolling across the point here |
| 26496s | well a little ring around the rosie |
| 26497s | rotating around the map a little bit of |
| 26499s | a scenic route for him as the point gets |
| 26500s | ready to unlock |
| 26502s | shock do have a little bit more of an |
| 26504s | inside track dive into the back the |
| 26505s | stairwell it's a massive pile driver |
| 26507s | here but it's gonna be flutter who |
| 26508s | actually gets taken down trying to play |
| 26509s | off the back of fate setup |
| 26512s | debated him by his tank follow-up kill |
| 26514s | they're on the lip as the point lockdown |
| 26516s | will once more be there for the side of |
| 26518s | the shock first and foremost |
| 26520s | well played by violet there you see the |
| 26521s | anti-man coming through off the planet |
| 26523s | mocks them up with the purple |
| 26525s | chances to get too much done after that |
| 26526s | so |
| 26527s | yeah you're just seeing uh the shock |
| 26529s | trying to get further kills to stagger |
| 26530s | out the shanghai dragon is not going to |
| 26532s | happen fake will be there to protect |
| 26534s | and now fled will be the one taking the |
| 26536s | traces so a bit of a swap here two |
| 26538s | player swapping does hurt for the |
| 26539s | dragons as far as looking at alt economy |
| 26542s | goes that's two players resetting back |
| 26543s | to zero |
| 26547s | dragons they're gonna get this flip so |
| 26549s | far |
| 26550s | too much of a contention from the side |
| 26551s | of the shop |
| 26553s | then you rotate down now |
| 26554s | slippery joins the sojourn in hand |
| 26558s | pulse bomb at the ready limp going low |
| 26560s | and there's the chase proper gets on top |
| 26561s | of him once more |
| 26563s | he's able to play off these setups from |
| 26564s | his teammates so perfectly well |
| 26567s | and has been traded but now fate gonna |
| 26568s | be taken down it looks like the shock |
| 26570s | should be able to hold this for a while |
| 26572s | once more auntie out on the two there's |
| 26574s | the pulse pop just for good measure |
| 26575s | proper cleaning up the supports |
| 26577s | 50 percent now crested |
| 26580s | when we talk about good rookies this |
| 26582s | year so far we've seen alfie versus ryan |
| 26584s | but here we go proper |
| 26586s | every single time another rookie looks |
| 26587s | good probably says no no i am leading |
| 26589s | this rookie the year race currently and |
| 26590s | he is going to keep the shock |
| 26592s | continually in the lead here 63 and |
| 26594s | counting nano still available bob coming |
| 26596s | up for kilo dragons |
| 26598s | finally looking at some important |
| 26599s | ultimates again lip and flinders |
| 26600s | severely behind and alts because they |
| 26601s | swapped like |
| 26605s | they're trying to play catch up here |
| 26607s | you can do it quickly shock right now |
| 26610s | looking great on pace for a hundred and |
| 26611s | zero on the round |
| 26613s | gonna be nattered up but it doesn't |
| 26615s | matter |
| 26616s | they just get right on top of him the |
| 26617s | back of the |
| 26619s | get the elimination flip moving up onto |
| 26620s | the high ground now going to be taking a |
| 26622s | nap violet putting him in the bed for a |
| 26623s | little bit and there's the kill |
| 26625s | for the charge up takes him down but |
| 26628s | proper was dealt with in the meantime |
| 26630s | bob going to be occupying the point |
| 26631s | keeping this contested legion just |
| 26632s | trying to poop him off we'll be able to |
| 26634s | get enough distance there faint touches |
| 26637s | in forces out the ot flat ticking down |
| 26639s | taken down |
| 26640s | then finding a kill once more now has |
| 26642s | the transcendence ready to go cluj gets |
| 26643s | the hit on the lee jaegon maybe even |
| 26645s | setting off the side of the map didn't |
| 26646s | quite get to catch it is the yucky dead |
| 26648s | as well no supports no tank lift dead |
| 26650s | there's the closeout shock with a |
| 26652s | fantastic reply an incredibly close |
| 26654s | first round now they just absolutely |
| 26656s | sweep them one garden |
| 26659s | so they don't give any opportunity for |
| 26660s | the dragons to make that comeback right |
| 26662s | it's not |
| 26663s | uncommon for the dragons to be down by |
| 26665s | quite a lot of percentage points when |
| 26666s | you go back to toronto versus dragons |
| 26668s | matchup as well dragons are uncanny in |
| 26670s | their ability to make a comeback right |
| 26671s | toronto started at 99 i believe it was |
| 26673s | illegal as well shanghai come back 099 |
| 26676s | doesn't matter they get the zero to 100 |
| 26678s | here shock just go don't give them any |
| 26680s | breathing space which is exactly how you |
| 26682s | need to be playing against the shanghai |
| 26683s | dragons from start to finish |
| 26686s | proper collusion i mean that sleep down |
| 26687s | as well multiple sleep thoughts from |
| 26688s | violet that connects beautifully |
| 26690s | allowing for kills lip sleeping there |
| 26692s | he's thinking it's one of the worst |
| 26693s | situations you're thinking maybe i'll |
| 26694s | wake up i'm probably alive when you see |
| 26697s | finn walk up with a fireball clean you |
| 26699s | up |
| 26700s | there it is the shock wall actually come |
| 26701s | out with the same strat as the alley |
| 26703s | gladiators it's going to be the road hog |
| 26705s | from colluge in a very similar fashion |
| 26707s | to the clyde's trying to counter |
| 26708s | bernard's ball |
| 26710s | wants to try and get facebook but he's |
| 26711s | yucky it's the first one quick first |
| 26713s | blood at that still 12 seconds until the |
| 26715s | point lock uh unlocked so finn will have |
| 26717s | an opportunity to rejoin |
| 26719s | let's set them up nicely to posture |
| 26720s | forward though and try to go for that |
| 26722s | initial control pile driver in gets the |
| 26724s | knock off the charge |
| 26725s | not going to be able to connect there |
| 26727s | from busy yucky goes to the hook trying |
| 26729s | to drag fate in but there's just too |
| 26731s | much pressure being applied to the |
| 26732s | roadhog so ends up going down |
| 26734s | point unlocked this time the dragon's |
| 26736s | able to establish control off the rip |
| 26738s | we'll see if kaluj wants to flip away |
| 26740s | and yeah he's gonna go over to that diva |
| 26743s | which has been kind of his signature |
| 26745s | pick so far i'm personally still just |
| 26747s | waiting to be more convinced by the diva |
| 26749s | he kind of showed this versus london as |
| 26750s | well usually waits until i get bald to |
| 26752s | pull it out but here we go straight away |
| 26754s | on oasis city center the devil will make |
| 26757s | an early appearance is it gonna be good |
| 26759s | enough |
| 26760s | so fresh swap as well kilo as well zero |
| 26763s | ultimate charge dragon said 700 hp worth |
| 26766s | of roadhog to build up holds |
| 26769s | speed kind of getting beaten and |
| 26771s | battered as he looks for an opening |
| 26774s | pops the adaptive shield doesn't get too |
| 26775s | much shielding there stick comes in and |
| 26777s | hit the two on one special proper takes |
| 26780s | out flutter takes out lip in one fell |
| 26782s | swoop |
| 26783s | fate i don't even know what happened |
| 26784s | there went off the side of the map i |
| 26785s | don't know i don't care |
| 26787s | all i know is the shock absolutely |
| 26790s | pounded in the fight kilo cleaning up |
| 26792s | two on the back end as well and now |
| 26794s | they're in control |
| 26796s | proper so phenomenal on this tracer |
| 26800s | the double kills coming on through what |
| 26802s | he did on the previous round in gardens |
| 26803s | as well |
| 26804s | more than keeps |
| 26806s | shock into this plate now they finally |
| 26808s | get the percentage up 20 and counting |
| 26810s | dragons still working over towards some |
| 26811s | of their own outfits flirting about to |
| 26812s | hit that pulse bomb as well let's |
| 26815s | flatter versus proper matchup has been |
| 26816s | super super exciting but profit |
| 26819s | he's made this one he's trying to make |
| 26821s | this one as one side as possible that he |
| 26822s | can |
| 26825s | lose just eating that damage from behind |
| 26826s | widely stay safe but for the discord orb |
| 26828s | invested as well he will get demect |
| 26832s | looking for the kill on the baby diva |
| 26833s | take him low haven't finished him off |
| 26835s | yet but he's also not gaining too much |
| 26836s | as far as that pistol is concerned |
| 26838s | trying to get back into his mech but |
| 26840s | proper tequila still just doing the line |
| 26842s | share the work here for the side of the |
| 26843s | shock lipidly take on are taken out izzy |
| 26846s | yucking pressure being applied and he's |
| 26848s | actually going to pop the trans he |
| 26848s | commits it here to the fight after |
| 26850s | taking down finn i feel like they can |
| 26852s | turn this but |
| 26853s | i don't know if i'm fully convinced yet |
| 26855s | pulse bomb lobbed in proper not gonna |
| 26856s | find the hit takes the recall out back |
| 26858s | up the full hp makes his exit grabs the |
| 26859s | mini pack |
| 26861s | that's a little bit of damage there on |
| 26862s | the faith by dragons they use that |
| 26864s | trance they haven't been able to make |
| 26865s | their way over to the point they're |
| 26866s | trying to get this flipping now izzy is |
| 26867s | gonna be taken down it's just league |
| 26868s | left alive shield raised trying to |
| 26870s | survive the pressure being applied he |
| 26872s | cannot they break it down proper finds |
| 26874s | the kill in the shock looking to run |
| 26876s | away with this map |
| 26878s | beautiful stuff from proper there just |
| 26879s | staying alive putting the pressure on |
| 26880s | forcing the trance and he might not be |
| 26883s | able to kill yuziaki well they'll |
| 26884s | eventually get izyaki down but the |
| 26886s | dragons are just struggling to put a lid |
| 26888s | on properly going down now they have to |
| 26890s | use a rally 99 coming up now for the |
| 26892s | shark dragons would have to make the |
| 26894s | comeback kilo also getting some |
| 26895s | brilliant opening picks |
| 26897s | looking to see if lift can do the same |
| 26898s | thing |
| 26901s | overclock the overclocked pin with the |
| 26903s | transcendence about to be up rallies is |
| 26905s | well available for either side |
| 26907s | limp searching for a target spots a few |
| 26910s | there's the rally going through he gets |
| 26911s | kilo in the head |
| 26912s | shuts him down and that's gonna be a |
| 26914s | pause called in the middle of the action |
| 26920s | okay |
| 26921s | deep breaths in 99 up |
| 26924s | remember |
| 26936s | [Music] |
| 26945s | [Music] |
| 26953s | [Music] |
| 26959s | alrighty well |
| 26961s | uh huge kills going through looks like |
| 26963s | everyone might be having a little bit of |
| 26964s | an issue as well as we have this pause |
| 26966s | so it's all right you guys just hang |
| 26967s | tight with me |
| 26969s | and uh we will see how this all develops |
| 26972s | not sure exactly what the issue is seems |
| 26974s | to be on the shock side of things but |
| 26976s | hopefully we can get this taken care of |
| 26977s | we'll go right back into the game as |
| 26979s | this is a very tense moment what avril |
| 26981s | was trying to say is that |
| 26983s | uh given the situation right now for the |
| 26985s | shock even if they do lose out on this |
| 26987s | fight should be in a comfortable |
| 26989s | position and since they are already at |
| 26991s | 99 percent of the dragons have to start |
| 26993s | from 40 try to build all the way back up |
| 26994s | to the top but we'll see if they can |
| 26996s | even win this one out because the shock |
| 26998s | have been incredibly clutch so far |
| 27001s | see |
| 27002s | what occurs and if i get any updates |
| 27003s | obviously i will share that with you |
| 27005s | guys but for now we're just going to be |
| 27006s | hanging out |
| 27007s | and getting ready to go back into this |
| 27008s | and i can't hear you i'm not sure if |
| 27010s | you're prepped on stream or not but uh |
| 27012s | hopefully okay seems like we are good |
| 27014s | apple's back and uh yeah we're still in |
| 27017s | a boss |
| 27020s | [Music] |
| 27028s | [Music] |
| 27032s | okay |
| 27033s | looks like he's looks like he's still |
| 27035s | having a couple of issues so it's okay |
| 27039s | this is what happens you got sometimes |
| 27040s | the online productions and uh this can |
| 27043s | occur but it's fine |
| 27046s | i'm here and i will i will keep you guys |
| 27048s | company as we uh |
| 27051s | uh get our way through these bosses of |
| 27053s | course this is just things that happen i |
| 27054s | i've been cursed for so very long ever |
| 27057s | since contenders of 2018 and whatnot |
| 27059s | even before then some of the other games |
| 27060s | that i cast the long pauses have come |
| 27062s | through and it's just uh it's something |
| 27064s | that continues to follow me you know |
| 27066s | it's just uh it is what it is but you |
| 27068s | get used to it at a certain point you |
| 27069s | just have to sit back and uh relish the |
| 27071s | pauses and now you get to have a little |
| 27072s | bit of a podcast moment normally i have |
| 27074s | somebody accompanying me but hopefully |
| 27075s | we can get avril back into this and get |
| 27077s | everything worked out on his uh side of |
| 27079s | things so that we can carry on and i |
| 27080s | have somebody to converse with otherwise |
| 27082s | you guys are just going to be listening |
| 27083s | to the ramblings of a madman as i |
| 27085s | steadily decline into insanity uh |
| 27087s | sitting here in a pause by myself so |
| 27090s | either way whichever way you know it you |
| 27092s | know transpires it should be uh |
| 27094s | entertaining at least for you guys uh |
| 27096s | because if the game starts up then we're |
| 27097s | really excited and if it doesn't then i |
| 27099s | keep talking you get to watch me go |
| 27100s | crazy so there we go uh entertainment |
| 27103s | value no matter which way you slice it |
| 27104s | once more i think i'm hearing apple |
| 27106s | we'll see if his uh connection |
| 27108s | situation has leveled out and if we're |
| 27111s | gonna be good uh but yeah still waiting |
| 27114s | on the pause hopefully taken care of |
| 27116s | i don't know what's going on |
| 27118s | so how are you guys doing |
| 27121s | i hope chad's uh hanging in there doing |
| 27122s | well |
| 27123s | so |
| 27125s | you know |
| 27128s | i can't read the chat it's not going to |
| 27130s | and then if i did you guys would be like |
| 27131s | a minute behind so it's kind of |
| 27133s | difficult to have a a conversation but i |
| 27135s | hope that you guys are hanging in there |
| 27136s | alongside me and i have been enjoying |
| 27138s | the matches so far today because it has |
| 27140s | been a pretty crazy day as we have had |
| 27143s | kind of |
| 27144s | each and every day in this tournament |
| 27145s | which is great this is one of the things |
| 27147s | that we've been lacking for a while and |
| 27148s | i've been really looking forward to |
| 27149s | obviously is international competition |
| 27151s | and i'm really glad to see that so far |
| 27153s | all of the teams are very much |
| 27155s | delivering we haven't really had too |
| 27156s | many one-sided affairs uh in this |
| 27158s | tournament series and everything has |
| 27160s | been |
| 27161s | pretty damn awesome to watch so |
| 27164s | i for one is super excited to continue |
| 27167s | things and just uh see how everything uh |
| 27169s | keeps going |
| 27171s | so i hope that you guys are enjoying it |
| 27173s | as well i know that it's it's you know |
| 27174s | depending on where you are in the world |
| 27176s | it's late it's early it's in the middle |
| 27177s | of the afternoon uh so for those of you |
| 27180s | guys who are waking up early or staying |
| 27181s | up late to be able to watch these |
| 27182s | matches we appreciate all of you i |
| 27184s | personally appreciate and love all of |
| 27186s | you |
| 27186s | so |
| 27187s | keep fighting the good fight which is |
| 27189s | you know fighting against your |
| 27191s | needing to have to sleep |
| 27193s | and stay in here with us because you |
| 27194s | know if i could if i can do this if i |
| 27195s | can get up at five in the morning for a |
| 27197s | tech check-in and then start casting |
| 27199s | like seven hours later and try to keep |
| 27201s | you guys entertained then uh |
| 27203s | it should be uh you know |
| 27205s | it should be all right |
| 27207s | i think you guys can hang in there but i |
| 27209s | think we're gonna be getting things |
| 27210s | underway in just a moment so hopefully |
| 27213s | we'll be going back into the action and |
| 27214s | i will be |
| 27215s | uh |
| 27216s | i i will be your guide i will be your |
| 27218s | ferryman taking you through the rest of |
| 27219s | this map it would seem as we just |
| 27220s | continue to work on avril's side of |
| 27222s | things so it's all good you're in good |
| 27225s | hands as it turns out |
| 27227s | so hopefully we'll just get this |
| 27229s | resuming here pretty quickly reading uh |
| 27232s | in the chat league on saying uh |
| 27234s | or no collusion saying please don't kill |
| 27236s | me so it seems like he thinks he might |
| 27237s | be in a bit of a rough spot as we get |
| 27239s | ready to go out of the pause and here we |
| 27241s | go the action's gonna resume lift the |
| 27242s | overclock now expiring looking for |
| 27245s | another target had just taken down kilo |
| 27246s | moments before we had that pause come |
| 27248s | through |
| 27249s | probably getting tagged up as well this |
| 27250s | rail still being held transcend it's |
| 27252s | going to be used by finn |
| 27254s | you'll be very alive for the moment |
| 27255s | proper pulse pop nearly online he finds |
| 27258s | fleta takes him down to about half hp |
| 27260s | the ot starts to bleed away rapidly |
| 27261s | violet gets on top of the legion god |
| 27263s | finds that elimination and they can't |
| 27264s | get on to the point fleta steps off for |
| 27267s | just a moment and all that build up all |
| 27269s | that weight to see what was gonna happen |
| 27272s | and it all comes to an end so the kill |
| 27274s | on kilo be damned the shock they brush |
| 27277s | it off they get the win they spam the |
| 27280s | chat with some c9s and they draw first |
| 27282s | blood over the shanghai dragons moving |
| 27284s | up 1-0 in the series |
| 27299s | i'm like i'm not gonna lie i can't hear |
| 27301s | apple he's he's coming in really choppy |
| 27302s | every now and then i wasn't sure if he |
| 27304s | was back he's not so uh you guys are |
| 27306s | just still with me for the time being |
| 27308s | but there we go a great lead for the |
| 27310s | side of the san francisco shock and a |
| 27311s | fantastic showing they're going to be |
| 27312s | feeling great after getting this win a |
| 27314s | team finally won on their pick when they |
| 27316s | selected oasis to start off a series |
| 27318s | that's something to celebrate all by |
| 27320s | itself but now it's gonna be the |
| 27321s | shanghai dragons who do have map pick at |
| 27323s | their disposal we'll see where they want |
| 27326s | to take us for hybrids been a hell of a |
| 27328s | lot of kings row as of late so maybe |
| 27329s | we'll get some more of that i don't know |
| 27332s | all i know is that we are going to take |
| 27333s | a little break see if we can get avril |
| 27335s | uh right back in here alongside me but |
| 27337s | either way i'll be here and i can't wait |
| 27339s | to resume we'll go to a quick little |
| 27341s | break and we'll see what the shanghai |
| 27342s | dragons land on for their map pick |

| 27753s | me |
| 27756s | [Music] |
| 27776s | [Music] |
| 27781s | [Music] |
| 27789s | the only thing that matters in this comp |
| 27790s | is the ryan so |
| 27800s | alrighty we are back and hopefully |
| 27802s | everything is uh good to go moving |
| 27804s | forward we've got avril back in the |
| 27805s | driver's seat alongside me and we are |
| 27807s | going to carry forward with this series |
| 27809s | shock able to take the first map their |
| 27811s | pick of oasis they lock it in it looks |
| 27814s | good now the dragons as we move forward |
| 27816s | to hybrid they're gonna be taking us to |
| 27817s | eichenball |
| 27819s | two on one finish there from the shock |
| 27821s | there as well dragons could not bring it |
| 27823s | back on city center |
| 27825s | and i don't know if we got this one in |
| 27827s | the broadcast a little bit earlier on |
| 27828s | but i was saying that that is actually |
| 27830s | the first map loss of the shanghai |
| 27832s | dragon so far this entire tournament |
| 27834s | they are actually zero they're actually |
| 27835s | six and zero in map wins across their |
| 27837s | two matches so |
| 27839s | they had looked pretty indomitable but |
| 27840s | shock coming through |
| 27842s | and prove that the dragons can indeed |
| 27844s | bleed |
| 27846s | they have the dragons though the |
| 27848s | question is has this angered them or |
| 27850s | weakened them will they be able to reply |
| 27853s | get into form and look to shut them down |
| 27855s | and tie up the series as mentioned i can |
| 27857s | both gonna be the map pick for hybrid |
| 27860s | we'll be moving forward |
| 27861s | seeing if the shock can take a stretch |
| 27863s | lead i mean what a statement it would be |
| 27865s | if they are able to get a 2-0 start and |
| 27867s | force the shanghai dragons into a |
| 27869s | reverse sweep |
| 27871s | position |
| 27873s | and really set themselves up for success |
| 27875s | to move forward here in this tournament |
| 27877s | shanghai dragons yeah we know what can |
| 27879s | happen when they are pressed we know |
| 27880s | that even if they do get into that |
| 27882s | position they are fairly reliable and |
| 27884s | you cannot count them out if a reverse |
| 27886s | sweep is necessary uh but obviously you |
| 27888s | want to avoid that they want to be able |
| 27890s | to come back into this wii and gain |
| 27892s | control in the series |
| 27894s | i mean we expected that this is going to |
| 27895s | be competitive series right a two and |
| 27897s | one finish on oaxis dragons finally |
| 27898s | losing their first map |
| 27900s | the san francisco shark now also |
| 27901s | bringing sam in over kilo so we have the |
| 27904s | eye convolved or actually did sort of |
| 27906s | tease this map uh while we were going |
| 27908s | through oasis when collusion brought up |
| 27909s | the diva right this is actually a map |
| 27911s | that cluj has specifically been running |
| 27913s | the diva on |
| 27914s | to be very clear this is definitely what |
| 27917s | i would consider off meta even from |
| 27918s | talking to you know some of the other |
| 27920s | coaches as well to get their thoughts on |
| 27921s | where diva's place is in the middle uh |
| 27923s | it's pretty unanimous across the board |
| 27925s | uh well minor shock here that uh diva |
| 27928s | definitely isn't really one of the main |
| 27930s | picks on tank that you would expect so |
| 27932s | shock have definitely been the one team |
| 27934s | that want to do as much of this as |
| 27935s | possible dragons now tasting their first |
| 27938s | little bit of defeat in the mid-season |
| 27940s | madness tournament see if they can |
| 27941s | bounce back |
| 27943s | well here we go |
| 27945s | doors opened up same on the echo up in |
| 27947s | the sky proper of course just gonna be |
| 27948s | on the tracer why would you put him on |
| 27950s | anything else given the performance that |
| 27951s | he's put up already in this series let |
| 27953s | alone the whole tournament in season |
| 27956s | long |
| 27958s | making their way forward now on the |
| 27959s | attack shanghai dragons getting ready to |
| 27961s | assault the point fate hanging back |
| 27962s | because the moment leader got out in the |
| 27964s | open shield bashes away to break line of |
| 27966s | sight still falling low and the shield |
| 27968s | is down he's swinging |
| 27970s | instead of keeping himself protected the |
| 27971s | healing throughput ferments izzy is |
| 27973s | nowhere near high enough |
| 27975s | save his cohort lyft doesn't manage to |
| 27976s | find one though putting proper in the |
| 27978s | dirt |
| 27979s | good headshot from him but let's control |
| 27980s | it off the back if it wants to just wait |
| 27982s | and see lee jiang is gonna be rushing to |
| 27983s | try to rejoin |
| 27985s | yeah it's five before currently proper |
| 27986s | still needs to get back here from spawn |
| 27988s | they're trying to dive on top of colluge |
| 27990s | if dragons cannot kill they can force |
| 27991s | the fight before once more already one |
| 27994s | tick a second one getting ready to come |
| 27995s | through conceded by the side of the |
| 27997s | shock dragons seemingly satisfied with |
| 27999s | that go ahead pull back away from the |
| 28001s | point |
| 28002s | sure that everybody is nice and safe |
| 28004s | topped up on the hp bars and look to |
| 28006s | re-aggress |
| 28010s | there's the roll out very big ring on |
| 28012s | the tampon i mean we saw the two ticks |
| 28014s | coming on through it so i haven't had |
| 28015s | any ultimates online for either squad so |
| 28017s | this is just going to come down to |
| 28018s | neutral picks we find one easy twice i |
| 28021s | mean they just rotate away from proper |
| 28022s | he still will get his yaki on the end |
| 28024s | but not before |
| 28025s | he claims two big pickups now but it |
| 28028s | finds violet paint dropped proper still |
| 28030s | alive pulse bomb at the ready this is |
| 28032s | still turnable for the side of the shock |
| 28033s | jump over to the side grabs the health |
| 28035s | pack but with clues broken out of the |
| 28036s | mech that is going to be the cap coming |
| 28038s | in but maybe robert was able to commit |
| 28040s | on that fight |
| 28041s | could have turned it around but it is |
| 28043s | not here's the z |
| 28044s | like to do |
| 28046s | yeah so you know you see the dragons |
| 28048s | actually a multi-man dive easy aki part |
| 28050s | of the dive with both lip and fate i |
| 28052s | mean she's looking from easy people he's |
| 28054s | he goes through that sort of left side |
| 28055s | and then instantly lip slides in fate |
| 28058s | rolls in and they roll two members of |
| 28060s | the shock instantaneously the shock dude |
| 28062s | respond with a couple of frags but it's |
| 28063s | not gonna be enough to save the point |
| 28064s | proper did not get to use that pulse one |
| 28066s | still has an available filler flitter as |
| 28068s | well together in i'll be looking for his |
| 28070s | own pick |
| 28073s | from now |
| 28075s | forward choked surrendered by the shark |
| 28077s | not looking to contest it yet as the |
| 28079s | cart moves up to the first corner this |
| 28081s | is when they'll start getting involved |
| 28082s | kalu's dropping down to the low ground |
| 28084s | instantly chunked out to about half |
| 28085s | rotates up top stay safe get some long |
| 28088s | range coming through |
| 28090s | you know is available pulse not flip |
| 28092s | flooded not gonna find anything though |
| 28095s | no opening kill to be found so the cart |
| 28096s | still widely gonna be locked into |
| 28098s | position as |
| 28099s | dragons are looking to retake the castle |
| 28101s | here |
| 28103s | yeah this is likely maybe a defensive |
| 28104s | nano because there's no great now to |
| 28106s | tigers you could be narrowing sam but he |
| 28107s | doesn't have the ultimate mana gets a |
| 28109s | kill though or you just hold onto i need |
| 28111s | to burn the ultimate at this stage yeah |
| 28113s | don't just keep it held on inches the |
| 28115s | card forward a little bit more but now |
| 28116s | with this yaki going down it's gonna be |
| 28117s | further staggers |
| 28119s | but in deep antenate out onto two the |
| 28121s | chase ford is there proper trying to get |
| 28123s | that execution |
| 28124s | can't quite get it but does force them |
| 28126s | back |
| 28127s | three minutes 20 seconds now |
| 28131s | low all trade game here as well because |
| 28133s | you see that one pulse one for flatter |
| 28134s | but the other nine members are holding |
| 28136s | on as more and more ultimate start |
| 28138s | piling in and this is probably what you |
| 28140s | expect right a dragons member will dive |
| 28141s | on top of a shark invite will probably |
| 28143s | use the now defensively unlike finn if |
| 28145s | he gets into trouble |
| 28146s | dragon's trying to take a little bit of |
| 28148s | high ground control here you see them |
| 28149s | rotating around the map they've |
| 28150s | abandoned the car they just want mass |
| 28152s | control |
| 28154s | rally opened up from legit gone proper |
| 28157s | looking to shut somebody down with this |
| 28159s | pulse there's quite a bit of damage |
| 28160s | there from mizuyaki |
| 28162s | now they're aware of property's position |
| 28163s | nano goes forward out on the step |
| 28166s | no overclock yet using the transcendence |
| 28168s | both support ultimates burned into the |
| 28170s | fight here but as the rally expires the |
| 28172s | pilot on top of the legion go on the man |
| 28173s | to find that elimination overclock pop |
| 28175s | by lift we'll find one |
| 28177s | takes the head off looks for more |
| 28180s | some damage through onto collusion now |
| 28182s | let's loose with that self-destruct goes |
| 28184s | it up into the air but actually explodes |
| 28186s | just behind this castle walls so it's |
| 28188s | not able to catch anybody doesn't manage |
| 28190s | to make it back into the neck safely |
| 28191s | however |
| 28192s | a chance for a re-contest plena on the |
| 28194s | hunt nothing |
| 28196s | though he might even die to his own |
| 28200s | makes it easy |
| 28201s | rail to the head flutter out of the |
| 28203s | fight cart still being brought forward |
| 28205s | by legion caught but now the high ground |
| 28207s | is taken by the side of the shot he's a |
| 28208s | yaki he's left on the drive no one there |
| 28210s | to peel for him gets taken down to quick |
| 28213s | cleanups here a lot of the supports the |
| 28214s | dragons once more back into the squadron |
| 28217s | and that was nearly disastrous from the |
| 28219s | san francisco shock as well but what you |
| 28220s | do see is the self-destruct from college |
| 28223s | actually buys time for both college and |
| 28225s | proper to regroup with the rest of the |
| 28227s | team usually the self-destructs are not |
| 28228s | particularly useful in this particular |
| 28230s | matter you'll use them to reset your |
| 28231s | mech that's a situation where dragons |
| 28233s | were probably gonna look for the cleanup |
| 28234s | on the last two members but they can't |
| 28236s | get the kills because of the deeper bomb |
| 28237s | oh man |
| 28238s | it's just getting bullied right now |
| 28240s | doesn't manage to survive but the lip |
| 28242s | cannot say the same |
| 28245s | and another kill another |
| 28248s | slow up |
| 28249s | spade |
| 28250s | keeping the cart locked by the bridge |
| 28252s | resetting the rollback timer |
| 28255s | everybody else is just getting picked |
| 28256s | apart izzy i can take it down probably |
| 28258s | with a sliver of hp still holding on |
| 28261s | pin cleans up flat out it'll slip |
| 28264s | loosely take off |
| 28266s | again |
| 28266s | does the damage okay yeah they see that |
| 28268s | they see that they are going to be there |
| 28269s | in time yeah |
| 28271s | just in time it looks like feedback |
| 28272s | stuff i think fake should have committed |
| 28274s | there's a real small window that would |
| 28275s | maybe if they just said a little bit |
| 28277s | longer but you'll get out with his life |
| 28278s | i think he does want to value the fact |
| 28280s | that he has a flank going for him i |
| 28282s | wanted to mark him you see that violence |
| 28284s | even maybe looking behind proper could |
| 28285s | be chasing but they don't want to over |
| 28287s | chase this one they want to focus on the |
| 28289s | front lines here |
| 28290s | fake doing a lot of work though to keep |
| 28292s | dragons in final fight churchill 30 |
| 28293s | seconds remaining couple ultimates there |
| 28295s | for the dragons but real it is about |
| 28297s | fade if he can maybe find a way to flank |
| 28299s | 30 seconds i mean he's just trying to |
| 28301s | keep him busy he's buying attention he's |
| 28303s | pulling the shots back towards the point |
| 28304s | b finish rather than forward where they |
| 28307s | can try to cut down the approaching |
| 28308s | members of the shanghai dragons say i'm |
| 28310s | still looking to do that though as they |
| 28311s | take on the shield just fractured ball |
| 28314s | low and he dies lit will find finn |
| 28316s | before he can use the trance |
| 28318s | just trying to keep everybody else alive |
| 28319s | now in the fight |
| 28320s | six seconds remaining the touch still |
| 28322s | needed to come through to force at the |
| 28324s | overtime someone's going to go for it |
| 28325s | flutter low on hp makes his way forward |
| 28328s | gets it ot forced |
| 28330s | they're finding an opening kill colluge |
| 28332s | down a half but holds on |
| 28334s | actually he's going to open up within |
| 28335s | the rail will manage to take one down |
| 28336s | but lip has got nowhere to go ends up |
| 28338s | getting dropped fate |
| 28340s | limited by the pulse bomb as well |
| 28342s | transcendence now to keep everybody else |
| 28343s | pinned here to the cart finn just |
| 28345s | ushering them forward keeping this |
| 28347s | contested they want to end it right here |
| 28348s | right now and have a win condition under |
| 28350s | their belt |
| 28352s | rather than give them access to the |
| 28353s | castle itself is a yaki eliminating |
| 28355s | there's an explosion of death comes back |
| 28357s | on the doom cleans up too and there you |
| 28360s | have it shanghai dragons cannot make it |
| 28362s | to |
| 28365s | be just like the damage there i mean the |
| 28367s | biggest thing that we see is the fact |
| 28369s | that self-destruct once again is able to |
| 28370s | buy space |
| 28372s | no remake for college lift will get that |
| 28375s | mid-air rail shot however because lip |
| 28377s | had nowhere to run the self-destruct |
| 28379s | kills him what we even see there towards |
| 28380s | the end is lip actually had an overclock |
| 28383s | so had lip stayed alive or if he didn't |
| 28386s | die to the self-destruct which at this |
| 28387s | stage didn't really look possible right |
| 28389s | like he was dead to rights given the |
| 28390s | angle and trajectory of that diva bomb |
| 28393s | that could have been a different fight |
| 28394s | for the shanghai dragons you had the |
| 28395s | legion rally popped as well but the |
| 28397s | damage was not available only fleta |
| 28400s | could really get more damage in san |
| 28402s | francisco shock buying time for closure |
| 28403s | return divided with a major double i |
| 28406s | think even maybe triple and teenage hit |
| 28408s | combined with colludes punching a couple |
| 28410s | members that it's instant death in the |
| 28411s | dragons did not have time to play any |
| 28413s | further it's all done |
| 28417s | i mean what a return |
| 28419s | instant punch pinned against the wall |
| 28423s | taken down fantastic return |
| 28428s | and a great swap you know already fine |
| 28430s | found value with the self-destruct and |
| 28433s | is able to go over to the doomfist and |
| 28435s | shut them down even further |
| 28439s | the shanghai dragons a bit of a struggle |
| 28441s | on that attack i mean i think the a |
| 28443s | eventually got there which is decent but |
| 28445s | that entire b offense seemed very shock |
| 28448s | favored |
| 28449s | proper made it difficult colludes while |
| 28451s | staying alive in the deep at a very |
| 28452s | critical moment in the middle |
| 28454s | of that uh offensive phase where you |
| 28456s | know again two of them are live proper |
| 28458s | on one hp but shanghai dragons cannot |
| 28460s | clean them up and if it wasn't for fate |
| 28462s | sort of back capping |
| 28464s | that may not have even been that much |
| 28466s | distance either |
| 28473s | dragons now |
| 28475s | all into the defense you have a strong |
| 28477s | performance |
| 28479s | but lip is taken down off the rim fin |
| 28481s | just catching him in the head |
| 28484s | great opening kill here shocking out |
| 28486s | very much feel comfortable posture |
| 28488s | as well discord is out of the hand but i |
| 28490s | believe it's gonna be proper who's |
| 28491s | chasing forward trying to get that kill |
| 28493s | legit gone |
| 28494s | he's trying to peel for him he ends up |
| 28496s | getting caught up in the crossfire balls |
| 28498s | that's the point capped five and a half |
| 28500s | minutes in the time bank his flight |
| 28502s | dives in the back end |
| 28503s | they can't find a damn thing the shock |
| 28506s | break through and there you see they're |
| 28507s | very much hungry for this |
| 28510s | i mean they might get to kill the lip |
| 28511s | again if that happens and that's just |
| 28512s | going to be a long stagger dragons would |
| 28514s | love to beat the regrowth properly but |
| 28516s | that certainly not going to happen with |
| 28517s | lip down twice fired opens that one up |
| 28519s | big though he lands a double bar on it |
| 28521s | which hits both lip and i believe it |
| 28522s | might have been legit gone at the |
| 28523s | beginning lip couldn't get healed up and |
| 28525s | then finn finds that kill |
| 28527s | pulse bomb now into easy action it just |
| 28529s | doesn't stop prophets pressure on the |
| 28531s | shanghai dragons is phenomenal this |
| 28532s | giving san francisco shockwave should be |
| 28534s | giving them free push they're actually |
| 28535s | on the payload at the moment that needs |
| 28536s | to change so finally pushing that |
| 28538s | payload up |
| 28540s | making it |
| 28541s | push forward but i mean it doesn't even |
| 28543s | matter honestly right now the way that |
| 28545s | this is going it feels like they could |
| 28546s | leave the payload there for three |
| 28547s | minutes and then just come back to it |
| 28548s | comfortably and be able to push time and |
| 28551s | time again the picks are just coming |
| 28552s | through and shanghai dragons just |
| 28554s | aren't playing together and they can't |
| 28556s | play individually versus this pressure |
| 28559s | they don't have memphis they're always |
| 28560s | down one they haven't been able to reset |
| 28562s | properly because plays like proper and |
| 28564s | you know finn collusion always in their |
| 28565s | face payload's been pushed onto the |
| 28566s | bridge now fake got slipped at it maybe |
| 28568s | dragons can actually get a fight go with |
| 28570s | five up |
| 28571s | what a falling glow nearly take it down |
| 28572s | by the maid there |
| 28574s | does have a pulse getting ready to come |
| 28576s | through builds it up there by shooting |
| 28577s | spin but izzy aki once more picked off |
| 28579s | the nano who's goes through tim finds |
| 28581s | the kill violence gonna be traded though |
| 28583s | look with a nice headshot trying to even |
| 28585s | it up but now lip is gone you have a |
| 28587s | clock as he searches for yet another |
| 28589s | target sees the recall whips the jump |
| 28590s | but in the meantime here's the card no |
| 28592s | one can contest fate down below half hp |
| 28595s | and it's just yeah there's just not |
| 28596s | going to be a touch |
| 28598s | there's just not going to be a touch |
| 28601s | too far away fate was still coming back |
| 28603s | from spawn he's yaki's too slow on the |
| 28604s | zen |
| 28606s | fledera was dead |
| 28607s | so not a single person could actually |
| 28609s | touch and that just comes through from |
| 28610s | excellent snowballing on the san |
| 28612s | francisco shock |
| 28613s | again credit divided for finding early |
| 28615s | bioneed connections on towards a that |
| 28618s | the shock will be able to get picks from |
| 28620s | finn as well getting some really good |
| 28622s | damage and they never let that pressure |
| 28624s | go the foot of the neck of the dragons |
| 28626s | the entire way through b which was the |
| 28628s | biggest struggle for the shanghai |
| 28629s | dragons now on both the offense and the |
| 28631s | defense you barely saw a fight from the |
| 28633s | dragons at all on b this now has to be a |
| 28636s | reverse sweep we were hoping that this |
| 28638s | one was going to be a banger spark and |
| 28639s | glads really showed what the top level |
| 28641s | gameplay could be but currently dragons |
| 28643s | are struggling |
| 28645s | uh i think struggling is is putting it |
| 28647s | lightly honestly i think you just need |
| 28649s | to go all in this is a visible look for |
| 28651s | them right now this is the dragons doing |
| 28653s | their best dynasty impersonation in this |
| 28655s | tournament |
| 28656s | they are not showing up in this matchup |
| 28658s | now again as i was saying before they |
| 28661s | are in a position where they have to |
| 28662s | reverse sweep they've been good for in |
| 28663s | the past but they have never looked this |
| 28665s | out of sorts |
| 28666s | work cut out for them we'll see if they |
| 28668s | can dig deep enough to get a map win on |
| 28670s | the board once more they will have their |
| 28671s | selection we'll see where they take us |
| 28672s | for escort when we come back for the |
| 28674s | break |

| 28899s | stock |
| 28903s | some of the most hardcore carry |
| 28905s | performances that i've ever seen just a |
| 28906s | depth of talent on their roster that |
| 28908s | can't be denied i mean what more can you |

| 28932s | san francisco has cemented themselves as |

| 28938s | [Music] |
| 28940s | and the san francisco shock looking |
| 28942s | incredible just like our new legendary |
| 28944s | skin the royal night mercy on sale for a |
| 28947s | limited time so make sure you guys grab |
| 28948s | it while you can it's on sale |
| 28951s | until august 19th just 200 league tokens |
| 28954s | you earn it by watching the stream you |
| 28956s | should have enough pick it up while you |
| 28957s | still can |
| 28959s | anyway i think even better when as uh |
| 28962s | i'm pretty sure you know the winning |
| 28963s | team will get their own flavor of the |
| 28965s | skin as well which at the |
| 28967s | moment between shock and glad still in |
| 28970s | the upper bracket i mean shocked |
| 28971s | definitely leading the series |
| 28973s | it's |
| 28974s | the final moments here for dragons to |
| 28975s | try and pull something through they are |
| 28976s | going to make substitutions we're seeing |
| 28978s | void and baby come on in you're probably |
| 28979s | wondering what that's about we're going |
| 28981s | to an escort map circuit royale did tee |
| 28983s | this one up a little bit earlier in |
| 28985s | terms of |
| 28986s | a bit of a teaser for what we can expect |
| 28987s | moving forward this was |
| 28990s | an incredible map from the dragons |
| 28992s | versus the dallas field |
| 28993s | earlier on in this tournament lips do we |
| 28995s | make here void obviously here to play |
| 28997s | the segment baby an easy argument for |
| 29000s | the double flex support a comfortable |
| 29002s | matchup i think for a player like |
| 29004s | colluge on the shot because sigma is his |
| 29006s | best hero the big test now will be if |
| 29009s | kilo can match the water maker of lift |
| 29011s | now that happens |
| 29012s | the dragons are likely to topple because |
| 29016s | for the rest of it been invited been |
| 29017s | phenomenal proper as well well proper |
| 29019s | does as proper does right that's uh very |
| 29022s | standard stuff from proper the way he |
| 29023s | was carrying on that last map |
| 29026s | yeah i mean it's just been |
| 29028s | a perfect performance the whole way |
| 29030s | throughout from him and i mean widely |
| 29031s | from everybody on the side of the shock |
| 29033s | very little to ridicule at all |
| 29035s | the shanghai dragons just have the |
| 29037s | pressure mounting against them time and |
| 29039s | time again we'll see if the swap in here |
| 29041s | from bay bay and void is gonna be good |
| 29043s | enough for them to get the victory as we |
| 29045s | do get ready to go into circuit royale |
| 29046s | for escort but yep i mean it's |
| 29049s | everything to play for from here on out |
| 29050s | need that reverse sweep you cannot |
| 29052s | afford to |
| 29054s | you know fall off for even a moment |
| 29056s | because even while the dragons are |
| 29058s | driving the dam this the shock are just |
| 29059s | shutting them down time and time again |
| 29060s | so they need to level up and they need |
| 29062s | to maintain that performance the whole |
| 29064s | way throughout |
| 29066s | there would be a pretty comprehensive |
| 29067s | win for the shock as well if they can |
| 29069s | sort of defeat every |
| 29071s | version of the dragons what should say |
| 29073s | that okay we're going to an escort map |
| 29075s | the other players from dragons come on |
| 29077s | in and so if this isn't going to be a |
| 29080s | dragon's win well first of all they're |
| 29081s | definitely going to go down 0-03 but |
| 29083s | shock would certainly be cementing |
| 29084s | themselves on the top and we talked |
| 29086s | about the fact that this is a rookie |
| 29087s | versus veteran battle where |
| 29089s | you know |
| 29090s | you can look at the shock you can look |
| 29091s | at some of their previous match wins |
| 29093s | you're thinking you know why you know |
| 29094s | they're just kind of beating up on some |
| 29096s | of the lower n8 teams you know they're |
| 29098s | sort of winning against the i don't have |
| 29100s | to name them you can just look at the |
| 29101s | standards in a and just |
| 29102s | confirm for yourself who they've been |
| 29104s | beating but the point is now it's not |
| 29106s | just those teams that they're favored to |
| 29108s | be we're talking about |
| 29109s | the shanghai dragons here the champions |
| 29111s | of 2021 and shock coming through with an |
| 29114s | entirely new squad minus violet |
| 29117s | and currently 2-0 leading on match point |
| 29119s | i mean that's uh that's a big statement |
| 29122s | absolutely is now we'll get ready to |
| 29124s | jump into this map and see if it's all |
| 29127s | going to come to a very fast conclusion |
| 29129s | or if the shanghai dragons can in fact |
| 29131s | fight back because as you mentioned at |
| 29133s | the top of the show on top of this match |
| 29135s | rather shania dragons have not tried had |
| 29138s | not dropped maps |
| 29139s | up until this point and now they |
| 29142s | themselves are in threat of being swept |
| 29144s | which would just be |
| 29145s | i suppose poetic justice at the hands of |
| 29147s | the san francisco shock but very much |
| 29149s | disappointing |
| 29150s | for shanghai as well as just all of |
| 29153s | their fans and everybody who is hoping |
| 29155s | for a much closer series including |
| 29157s | ourselves |
| 29159s | i've been saying watch the piano of |
| 29161s | course we had uh some thin piano playing |
| 29164s | when |
| 29165s | when was it last time was it during the |
| 29167s | kickoff clash i believe |
| 29168s | [Music] |
| 29170s | and uh uber said beautiful when that |
| 29171s | happened shotgun here we go |
| 29176s | [Music] |
| 29180s | pretty good |
| 29181s | [Music] |
| 29184s | a nice finish i get a little scared |
| 29186s | though if it's too good we might get |
| 29187s | dmca so credit defender for at least |
| 29189s | just you know a little bit at the end a |
| 29190s | bit of |
| 29191s | freestyle just gonna start playing |
| 29193s | freebird on the piano something like |
| 29194s | that |
| 29195s | get us in trouble |
| 29198s | licensed music only |
| 29199s | [Music] |
| 29205s | he's doing a good job of it though |
| 29207s | but now with the timer ticking down |
| 29211s | swap over to the zenyatta as the gates |
| 29213s | open up kilo here with the widowmaker |
| 29215s | looking for a pop shot from blimp |
| 29219s | and this is going to be the lip platter |
| 29220s | special as well where flanna can also |
| 29222s | play the sergeant but the interesting |
| 29223s | thing is we look towards the sharp side |
| 29225s | that's also something proper does says |
| 29227s | time to be picking that one up |
| 29229s | early couple of uh shots coming through |
| 29231s | from kilo and let's actually see the |
| 29232s | differential in the uh what is it the |
| 29235s | ultimate charge there kilo has done the |
| 29237s | significant about more damage but no |
| 29239s | final blows obviously |
| 29241s | not yet |
| 29242s | a couple chest shots |
| 29244s | it's on the hunt though |
| 29248s | a little bit of a back and forth here |
| 29249s | between them the barrier are going to be |
| 29250s | broken down to the front lines is yucky |
| 29253s | that absolutely could have been yellow |
| 29255s | it's not a pop shot now but everyone's |
| 29256s | pulled back comfortably around the |
| 29258s | corner breaking line of sight but this |
| 29259s | is a good amount of space offered up for |
| 29262s | free by the shanghai dragons |
| 29264s | they know that they are in dire straits |
| 29266s | but lip he does manage to open things up |
| 29268s | with a nice head shot looks for a |
| 29269s | follow-up there but |
| 29271s | no proper sliding away keeps himself |
| 29273s | safe there it is once more and it's |
| 29275s | actually going to be proper he gets the |
| 29276s | connection |
| 29278s | yeah it has to be considered there |
| 29279s | because the problem has a headshot he |
| 29280s | can't actually dive at little play that |
| 29282s | spirit arranged it |
| 29284s | and uh proper won't be able to land that |
| 29285s | rail shot that leaks not to the head |
| 29287s | still got the pressure on the luge |
| 29289s | has taken down the immortality field |
| 29291s | which now both teams and gets to kill |
| 29292s | the baby it was just kind of trapped in |
| 29294s | the corner there flooded as well |
| 29296s | eliminated kilo this time getting some |
| 29298s | revenge that's point a broken open with |
| 29300s | relative ease |
| 29302s | now one kill from lips |
| 29304s | making it look a little bit decent |
| 29306s | providing some hope |
| 29308s | it all comes tumbling down maybe for now |
| 29311s | just sat inside of his body i think he's |
| 29312s | trying to stay quiet around the corner |
| 29314s | but here's the hunt |
| 29316s | and uh this is not gonna end well |
| 29318s | and that's a good that's a good read as |
| 29320s | well in terms of looking at the respawns |
| 29322s | understanding that baby probably got a |
| 29323s | bad spot in which he did and they'll be |
| 29326s | able to clean that one up lips response |
| 29327s | is going to give shanghai dragons the |
| 29329s | opportunity to maybe push on out if san |
| 29331s | francisco shock actually falls a |
| 29332s | dragon's alt here just for them to leave |
| 29334s | spawn that'll be huge currently free |
| 29336s | pushing payload and shock claiming a lot |
| 29339s | of foreground |
| 29344s | flux does come through but i don't know |
| 29346s | if boyd actually really caught too many |
| 29348s | people there maybe colluge by the way |
| 29350s | was set up he isn't a bad spot though |
| 29352s | boyd gets the accretion stun they get |
| 29354s | the punish |
| 29355s | they open it up just a little bit the |
| 29356s | cart still however steadily making its |
| 29359s | way around this final corner towards b |
| 29361s | the alts in the meantime he's getting |
| 29362s | banked up from this out of the shock |
| 29365s | and it looks like when dragons actually |
| 29367s | use their flux from boyd and push on out |
| 29369s | collusion cut off from his team the rest |
| 29370s | of shock had to back out and collude |
| 29372s | still very far forward and nowhere to go |
| 29374s | proper with the brittley sniper the lip |
| 29375s | can this be the push from dragons or |
| 29377s | rather from shock he's gonna look to |
| 29378s | make it happen and there it is proper |
| 29381s | look gets himself the 4k can he get the |
| 29384s | ac absolutely can |
| 29386s | what a shutdown and what a time bank |
| 29389s | five minutes plus here for the side of |
| 29391s | the san francisco shock at the final |
| 29392s | approach |
| 29394s | matt pick be damned oh hopper can not be |
| 29397s | stopped |
| 29398s | yeah he's still going nearly down take |
| 29401s | him |
| 29402s | was still happy about that though |
| 29404s | signature little smile plus the head |
| 29406s | wave tiny dance to the seat it's not |
| 29408s | going to pop off the way someone does |
| 29410s | but doesn't need to yeah it's got the |
| 29411s | pop-up in the game instead flutter going |
| 29413s | down tequila the swap now from proper |
| 29415s | onto the genji |
| 29417s | kilo could potentially look for another |
| 29419s | swap as well it is often that you see |
| 29421s | the widowmaker player actually swap off |
| 29422s | from the sea offense but oh that'll be |
| 29424s | proper going towards the genji first |
| 29425s | he'll be the dedicated car pushing out i |
| 29427s | mean given the shots that he's hitting |
| 29429s | right there i mean doesn't get the head |
| 29430s | shot on the lip but still |
| 29432s | chunks him out |
| 29433s | he might just be feeling it enough to |
| 29435s | stay |
| 29436s | on this pick |
| 29440s | blue just flux by the way |
| 29442s | no one see him |
| 29446s | respecting lip |
| 29448s | wise thing to do even if he has had the |
| 29450s | upper hand for the most part |
| 29453s | barrier out now gone kinetic grasp |
| 29456s | absorbing quite a bit |
| 29457s | boy dropped pretty hefty shield there |
| 29460s | yeah |
| 29461s | boyd does look to contest now as the |
| 29463s | card is so very close |
| 29465s | around the corner though hold it from |
| 29466s | here as the window comes through |
| 29469s | the knee based window |
| 29471s | he's dead the now picking him up |
| 29473s | in the corner is a he goes forward with |
| 29475s | the transcendence trying to keep |
| 29476s | everybody alive head shot there's a |
| 29478s | proper get slipped not sure if it wasn't |
| 29479s | effective just the shark is either way |
| 29481s | it's a massive breakthrough |
| 29483s | mortality field is out the cart once |
| 29485s | more pushing forward boyd gonna be taken |
| 29486s | down |
| 29487s | such a one-sided affair |
| 29490s | an absolute explosion at that the entire |
| 29492s | team evaporates |
| 29493s | three minutes and 19 seconds for the |
| 29495s | shock |
| 29496s | they are hungry for the 3-0 win |
| 29499s | yeah they look like they're about to get |
| 29501s | that one as well shanghai dragons have |
| 29503s | not really shown up on this defense or |
| 29505s | indeed maybe over this entire series so |
| 29507s | far only four final blows across that |
| 29508s | entire defense three of which came from |
| 29511s | lip |
| 29512s | initially the shanghai dragons when push |
| 29514s | comes to shove and we get towards the |
| 29516s | final moments there |
| 29518s | collusion proper pushing the payload |
| 29520s | along |
| 29521s | lip can't find that pick violet will |
| 29523s | drop down the amplification matrix to |
| 29525s | seal the deal and dragons do not have a |
| 29527s | response that one colludes flux that |
| 29529s | we've been waiting for the entire |
| 29530s | offense |
| 29532s | comes through in a pretty decisive |
| 29534s | manner and will allow the shark to |
| 29536s | completely clean up the shanghai dragons |
| 29538s | defense and get that kill and like you |
| 29540s | sort of mentioned while proper shutting |
| 29541s | down |
| 29542s | lift towards the end there flutter |
| 29543s | getting first flooded yeah there's just |
| 29544s | not a lot to say about the shanghai |
| 29546s | dragons in terms of that defense |
| 29548s | i just |
| 29550s | felt like they're not really even loaded |
| 29552s | up into the lobby right now |
| 29567s | the whiffy at the end is is actually i |
| 29570s | would say technically better for the san |
| 29571s | francisco shot because they're actually |
| 29572s | staggering izaki slightly it's not |
| 29574s | probably going to amount to anything |
| 29575s | that they can use but i'll take it |
| 29578s | there's uh no piano playing from the |
| 29580s | shanghai dragons here they've got to |
| 29581s | square up and get serious because they |
| 29583s | uh you know to say they're in dire |
| 29584s | straits would be an understatement |
| 29586s | flip has tried his best he's got some |
| 29587s | frags in there but it's not been enough |
| 29589s | to carry them |
| 29598s | slow and steady now |
| 29600s | on this push there's the shots complying |
| 29602s | with the widowmakers neither finding too |
| 29604s | many hits |
| 29607s | one shock also do you need to see |
| 29610s | you do need to see flint up kind of come |
| 29612s | into his own hair a little bit as well |
| 29613s | because he was very invisible on that |
| 29615s | defense yes no final blows half of |
| 29617s | prophet's damage |
| 29619s | in this range so look you might say |
| 29622s | maybe the side does matter while dragons |
| 29624s | are playing the other side now |
| 29625s | so no more excuses he has to show up |
| 29630s | boyd |
| 29630s | having a rough go of it there's one up |
| 29632s | okay there's one involved gets one |
| 29634s | proper take it down |
| 29635s | hug out behind the statue |
| 29638s | good kill try to open things up now he's |
| 29640s | sliding forward aggressively during the |
| 29641s | nape trying to cut off escape but kilo |
| 29643s | on the back of that gets the shot gets |
| 29645s | slipping the follow-up now looks for a |
| 29647s | little bit more |
| 29649s | and will be eliminated |
| 29650s | mortality field coming through the |
| 29652s | window as well built up rapidly by baby |
| 29654s | has him at the ready throws it down but |
| 29655s | kaloosh gets void |
| 29657s | push still going through but proper |
| 29659s | returns get to zayaki the shock you're |
| 29661s | gonna be able to hold this |
| 29663s | yeah |
| 29664s | decisively as well and that one |
| 29667s | hold here on a specifically let's take a |
| 29669s | look at kilo actually first and foremost |
| 29672s | really |
| 29674s | and then boom i mean barely a pixel a |
| 29676s | micro second there just to peek on |
| 29678s | through and find lip but knew the angle |
| 29680s | that he was playing at this is now |
| 29683s | dragons unable to match the 390. we |
| 29685s | probably didn't expect them to be able |
| 29686s | to match 319 anyway just very difficult |
| 29688s | to be able to match but that'll confirm |
| 29690s | it a single loss fight means that |
| 29691s | dragons now just play for any sort of |
| 29693s | map completion no longer fighting for |
| 29695s | 319. |
| 29698s | now looking trying to retake the card |
| 29700s | for themselves there's the flux to start |
| 29702s | void picking up violence drops them down |
| 29704s | immortality kill comes out hp bars |
| 29706s | however are still quite low but points |
| 29708s | is even lower and it's non-existent now |
| 29711s | the head shot comes in |
| 29713s | lift trying to jiggle around this statue |
| 29715s | to challenge |
| 29716s | it just can't do anything he's going to |
| 29718s | try to grapple away and he's still out |
| 29720s | in a dangerous spot proper takes |
| 29721s | advantage |
| 29722s | gets the kill and it's just such a wash |
| 29726s | that's the infrasight advantage i mean |
| 29728s | lip can't see kilo kilo sees everything |
| 29730s | including taking down void as well |
| 29733s | and there's a flux coming online for san |
| 29734s | francisco shock i mean forget about |
| 29736s | finishing the map dragon's just gonna |
| 29737s | focus on capping a cause this could be a |
| 29739s | disastrous full hold what's us for the |
| 29741s | dragons to be celebratory for the shock |
| 29743s | look at the ultimates three of them |
| 29744s | lighting up |
| 29747s | it'll be an ot push of nothing else |
| 29754s | overdrive at the ready the transcendence |
| 29756s | the flux everything to work with flutter |
| 29758s | popping his overclock |
| 29760s | looking for some targets flux there from |
| 29762s | colluge |
| 29763s | not gonna find any |
| 29765s | eliminations flutter |
| 29767s | same can be said |
| 29769s | no one playing close enough christian |
| 29770s | doesn't get the stun here |
| 29772s | he's continuing to play forward discord |
| 29774s | is out of me |
| 29777s | transcendence out of the clock that's |
| 29778s | going to expire violent getting stunned |
| 29780s | for a brief moment and stay alive proper |
| 29782s | get the head shot taking down lift pilot |
| 29784s | gonna be taken out as well now the |
| 29786s | overclock rolling seeking a target the |
| 29788s | barrier broken down |
| 29790s | shot goes through it's quite a bit of |
| 29791s | damage in can't finish the kill |
| 29794s | shanghai dragons will hold on by a |
| 29795s | thread they get the cap for 30 seconds |
| 29796s | remaining |
| 29798s | yeah so they have a slight window to |
| 29800s | play through now to |
| 29801s | give themselves an opportunity to push |
| 29803s | on towards c this has to be clean they |
| 29805s | have to get b as cleanly as shark got it |
| 29808s | and that's considering the fact that |
| 29809s | shark should actually technically lose a |
| 29811s | single fight when crews got caught out |
| 29812s | here so it wasn't a hundred percent |
| 29813s | clean but dragons they have to make up |
| 29815s | for lost time a lot of lost time |
| 29818s | i absolutely do |
| 29820s | i mean even coming up to flux even if |
| 29822s | they can just steady push through here |
| 29824s | uh you know matching the time bank |
| 29826s | it's not impossible for him by the way |
| 29829s | is okay |
| 29830s | that's actually huge |
| 29832s | emphasis now surely as they push through |
| 29834s | the final quarter that's the perfect |
| 29835s | timing for another site to be about now |
| 29837s | he hasn't gone for it but he nails the |
| 29838s | follow-up |
| 29840s | huge place from lift that's what they've |
| 29841s | been lacking |
| 29843s | now he finds it looks for violent |
| 29845s | catches |
| 29847s | he still doesn't even use the |
| 29848s | infrastructure he's just holding on to |
| 29849s | it |
| 29850s | boyd take it down his problem |
| 29852s | rejoins carte steadily advancing forward |
| 29854s | probably proper moves up |
| 29856s | let's keep this contestant for now kilo |
| 29859s | comes back |
| 29861s | mortality field use just to exit safely |
| 29863s | wrap back around with the rest of the |
| 29864s | team and the shock they're taking the |
| 29865s | fight to the dragons they're pushing |
| 29867s | forward shock stabilized dragons |
| 29869s | couldn't proceed i mean they had |
| 29871s | payload control they were looking for |
| 29873s | that cab but then they slowed down on |
| 29874s | the kills or rather i don't know i guess |
| 29876s | slowed down but the rest of the dragons |
| 29878s | watches back in on out gloosh now has |
| 29879s | flux advantage infrasight finally coming |
| 29881s | through kevin will be up to match a hot |
| 29883s | second there it is |
| 29884s | pops |
| 29886s | they see each other through the wall |
| 29887s | there |
| 29888s | now they're really swinging out kilo now |
| 29890s | taking a more aggressive position trying |
| 29892s | to put some shots down on the board pop |
| 29893s | shot |
| 29895s | blocked by the mirror |
| 29898s | there it is man can't just lift that |
| 29900s | rules the timing of the dragons dragons |
| 29902s | want a window there but now because they |
| 29903s | lose slip they have to reset they |
| 29905s | actually can't make this play happen |
| 29906s | they're just losing way too much time |
| 29908s | this is going to be another ot push |
| 29910s | potentially remaining even if they |
| 29912s | finish the point right now they would be |
| 29914s | starting with two and a half minutes |
| 29916s | 50 seconds shy of the shocks finishing |
| 29919s | time right now they're just going to be |
| 29921s | as soon as baby windows |
| 29922s | is going to hold |
| 29924s | the luge is going to counter the window |
| 29925s | straight away |
| 29926s | they might have the double support just |
| 29928s | to get through this and even that's not |
| 29929s | a guaranteed push whatsoever trying to |
| 29931s | push up onto the corner instantly met |
| 29933s | with some damage offers a bit back over |
| 29935s | towards proper just hugging in behind |
| 29936s | this pillar |
| 29938s | keeping himself safe there's the flux as |
| 29940s | the window comes through as you |
| 29941s | predicted the transcendence in response |
| 29943s | keeps them alive and now they need to |
| 29944s | win out the fight lifts gonna open |
| 29945s | things up against kilo once more the |
| 29948s | window fire |
| 29950s | back behind the corner violet caught mid |
| 29952s | jump lift once more comes up with three |
| 29954s | this time surely they can win out the |
| 29957s | fight and get the push completed |
| 29959s | the push forward pin going on the |
| 29961s | offensive but flat out will mention |
| 29963s | pitch tomorrow but with 10 seconds |
| 29964s | remaining the cap wannabe will be there |
| 29966s | but it's a minute and 35 seconds they |
| 29968s | start this final pushing kilo comes |
| 29970s | right back in and takes down flutter |
| 29972s | the only mistake there from the shock |
| 29974s | was that finn actually used the |
| 29975s | transcendence if he wanted to trance he |
| 29977s | needed to do that while violet was alive |
| 29979s | so they could play together they're |
| 29980s | probably going to go for the overclock |
| 29982s | to be fair they finally did die to a |
| 29983s | snipe so maybe the trains wouldn't have |
| 29984s | helped that much but neither case that |
| 29986s | ends up being one wasted ultimate still |
| 29989s | shock extremely favored to win this map |
| 29991s | considering the time left remember 30 |
| 29992s | seconds remaining for dragons when they |
| 29994s | kept a only 10 remains of the dragons on |
| 29996s | b and now about a minute left as they |
| 29998s | have to push through the entirety of c a |
| 30000s | very difficult position to push on |
| 30002s | through especially when they can't |
| 30003s | snowball due to the fact that kilo got |
| 30005s | an opening effect |
| 30007s | could have matching infras here in a |
| 30008s | moment it's kilos just 11 off so |
| 30011s | one two shots |
| 30013s | connecting and he'll have it ready to |
| 30017s | roll use his before kilo can get it |
| 30019s | available |
| 30020s | drops down |
| 30022s | looking for a target everyone widely |
| 30023s | just breaking these lines of sight and |
| 30025s | there it is |
| 30026s | seize one for just the moment of mine |
| 30027s | it's the mind taken down |
| 30030s | looks for him over at the stairwell |
| 30032s | can't get him is it for sight now |
| 30034s | expired kilo uses his own window out |
| 30036s | from violet |
| 30037s | his lip gets picked violet finding the |
| 30039s | kill |
| 30041s | barrier with not much hp point |
| 30043s | playing back not escape |
| 30045s | dragons are stuck in such a bad position |
| 30047s | proper looking to make his way forward |
| 30050s | they play into the room and as a yaki |
| 30052s | finds the upside kill spider-man finds |
| 30054s | the opening kill onto zayaki |
| 30056s | mortality kill does get cleared out |
| 30058s | here's the flux drops him down to the |
| 30059s | floor but proper immediately top back up |
| 30061s | boy taken down kilo out of the fight |
| 30063s | someone's gotta punch the cart and |
| 30064s | nobody can and there it is the san |
| 30067s | francisco shock |
| 30070s | they put their foot down they say okay |
| 30072s | you're coming into this series you |
| 30074s | haven't dropped the map yet we're gonna |
| 30075s | make you drop three consecutive they |
| 30078s | sweep |
| 30079s | the defending champions |
| 30082s | and move forward knocking the shanghai |
| 30084s | dragons down |
| 30087s | that seven match win streak now |
| 30090s | adds up to eight but i gotta say this |
| 30092s | eighth one |
| 30093s | this is the one that takes the sweetest |
| 30095s | take down the defending champions a full |
| 30097s | team of rookies and right on the end |
| 30100s | they had everything to play with |
| 30103s | kilo as well playing with the venom mine |
| 30105s | positioning i mean that is an exact spot |
| 30108s | that he knows that if he gets head shot |
| 30110s | it'll hit the venom mine and not his |
| 30111s | head so played that situation perfectly |
| 30114s | violet coming down the window getting |
| 30116s | the kill into the lip and that ends up |
| 30117s | being the beginning of the end |
| 30119s | catching shanghai dragons in the side |
| 30122s | room shanghai dragons had no escape they |
| 30123s | had to commit they can't reset no time |
| 30126s | remaining they had to use all their |
| 30127s | ultimates in shock were not perturbed |
| 30130s | perfectly played gotta see a flawless |
| 30132s | run through all three maps that was a |
| 30134s | brilliant |
| 30135s | bit of overwatch big play from the shock |
| 30137s | but really can't say the same for |
| 30138s | dragons disappointing in for them all |
| 30140s | right incredibly disappointing not |
| 30142s | showing up at really any point a couple |
| 30145s | moments obviously there on oasis did |
| 30147s | make that a two for one uh for the shock |
| 30150s | to be able to take it but then from |
| 30151s | there on out they found no purges no |
| 30154s | ground to stand on whatsoever the shock |
| 30157s | absolutely manhandled them at every |
| 30160s | twist and turn and from the outset while |
| 30162s | this was very much a team effort we saw |
| 30164s | a hell of a lot of great plays from kilo |
| 30166s | but from the outset the guy who really |
| 30168s | was just lighting up the kill feed time |
| 30170s | and time again is our player of the |
| 30171s | match and it's proper |
| 30174s | who else could it be i mean i think |
| 30176s | everyone did show up in some cases but |
| 30177s | this guy just farms mvp awards he farms |
| 30180s | play of the matches he |
| 30182s | really just gets all the attention for |
| 30184s | all the right reasons it's hard to not |
| 30186s | just give proper all the compliments and |
| 30189s | i mean look at this |
| 30191s | so many situations where shanghai |
| 30193s | dragons would love to get some players |
| 30195s | going they'd love to be able to do |
| 30196s | anything here but proper shuts them down |
| 30198s | this ace plus one towards the end i mean |
| 30201s | proper is just even egoing the shanghai |
| 30203s | dragons on this particular map on the |
| 30204s | golf fence and he can because he knows |
| 30206s | he's dominating he knows he's got the |
| 30208s | shanghai dragons tightly in his iron |
| 30210s | grip |
| 30211s | and proper is coming in fresh as a |
| 30213s | rookie but i think deservedly so is the |
| 30215s | most hyped rookie that we've ever had |
| 30218s | and he's living up to that hype and then |
| 30219s | some |
| 30221s | oh absolutely i mean |
| 30223s | an impeccable performance from him |
| 30224s | whether it was on the tracer on the |
| 30225s | sojourn just incredible but this was |
| 30228s | again i you know if not for his hard |
| 30231s | carry performance that we were seeing |
| 30232s | you know on oasis and whatnot i think |
| 30234s | that you could kind of throw a dart at |
| 30235s | the dartboard and no matter which member |
| 30237s | of the shock you hit you kind of could |
| 30238s | make a solid argument for him everybody |
| 30241s | played to absolute perfection |
| 30244s | um |
| 30245s | and it's just |
| 30246s | so rough to see this is not the series |
| 30248s | that we |
| 30249s | were anticipating that we wanted we |
| 30251s | sometimes throw around the term |
| 30253s | entertainment thieves usually for when a |
| 30255s | team just uh you know doesn't do well at |
| 30257s | all the shanghai dragons they robbed us |
| 30259s | of what could have been a fantastic |
| 30261s | match what could have been the best |
| 30263s | series of overwatch that we've had so |
| 30264s | far in 2022 they didn't show up in this |
| 30266s | one and uh it doesn't look anywhere near |
| 30269s | close |
| 30270s | yeah and then this is kind of reminding |
| 30272s | me of the the early 006 shanghai dragons |
| 30275s | at the beginning of the mid-season |
| 30276s | madness qualifiers where they couldn't |
| 30278s | really sort of find their footing yet um |
| 30280s | and they did seem to be able to i don't |
| 30282s | know get a grasp on the meta and start |
| 30284s | to come on through and improve you know |
| 30285s | things around shanghai were improving |
| 30287s | for them logistically as well uh but |
| 30289s | coming into this one you know didn't |
| 30290s | drop a single map shot came through can |
| 30292s | entirely sweep them and i did say as |
| 30293s | well if shark actually beat them on |
| 30295s | circuit royale then they have |
| 30296s | comprehensively beat them because they |
| 30298s | beat every single different look from |
| 30299s | the shanghai dragons and it's not even |
| 30301s | just the substitutions but we had the |
| 30302s | question that wouldn't make a part as |
| 30303s | well kakilo outsniped lip he ends up |
| 30306s | doing that pretty impressive uh proper |
| 30308s | absolutely outplay flitter there that |
| 30310s | was not the best that was absolutely not |
| 30312s | the best we've ever seen plato uh had an |
| 30314s | entirely invisible defense zero final |
| 30316s | blows half of proper damage it's uh |
| 30319s | baffling i think for the shanghai |
| 30320s | dragons and you know they are probably |
| 30324s | at least glad they have another life to |
| 30325s | try and figure it out but it's going to |
| 30326s | need to be a majorly quick turnaround |
| 30328s | they go to the lower bracket now and uh |
| 30331s | they go up against i guess the atlanta |
| 30333s | reign is it so that'll be a fun rematch |
| 30335s | for them but we are guaranteed a shock |
| 30337s | versus glads in a upper break final |
| 30339s | which means at least one in a team is |
| 30342s | gonna make the grand final yeah i mean n |
| 30344s | a right now putting up great figures |
| 30346s | saying you know what we are the superior |
| 30347s | region and right now they're able to put |
| 30349s | their money where their mouth is there's |
| 30350s | still a chance for that lower bracket |
| 30352s | run to come through but |
| 30353s | uh it just doesn't get very easy for the |
| 30355s | apac fans at all because you also have |
| 30357s | to watch two impact teams clash against |
| 30359s | each other one of them's gonna be going |
| 30361s | home so they have to eliminate |
| 30362s | themselves we'll see what happens of |
| 30364s | course as the action continues tomorrow |
| 30366s | that does it for myself and avril but of |
| 30368s | course we will have the desk breaking |
| 30370s | down everything that occurred today and |
| 30371s | setting the stage for some more matches |
| 30374s | coming up tomorrow so make sure you guys |
| 30375s | stay tuned for that |
| 30395s | hey |
| 30417s | do |
| 30437s | [Music] |
| 30531s | [Music] |
| 30545s | [Music] |
| 30571s | let's go |
| 30625s | let's go |
| 30637s | welcome to the watchpoint post show |
| 30638s | everybody i'm here with finn uh from san |
| 30640s | francisco shock for the post match |
| 30642s | interview fit finn congratulations on |
| 30644s | the win that was a clean 3-0 victory for |
| 30647s | the san francisco shock uh did you |
| 30649s | honestly believe that this was going to |
| 30651s | be such a |
| 30653s | one-sided affair |
| 30660s | but |
| 30667s | [Music] |
| 30691s | all right i mean i did actually expect |
| 30693s | this to be a very very easy win for the |
| 30695s | san francisco shock um i it was |
| 30697s | unfortunate that we gave them a round uh |
| 30699s | on the first map uh we could have gotten |
| 30701s | it we could have ended this match way uh |
| 30703s | way earlier than that um aside from that |
| 30705s | um i remember i don't remember if it was |
| 30707s | a san francisco shock last year that |
| 30709s | picked shanghai dragons or if it was the |
| 30711s | other way around but i just remember uh |
| 30713s | before going into the mess that uh our |
| 30715s | head coach krusty was very angry at the |
| 30717s | shanghai dragon so before going into the |
| 30719s | match uh we as a team told krusty that |
| 30722s | we will get that revenge and that's how |
| 30724s | it went down all right uh looking |
| 30726s | forward i mean based on how you guys |
| 30727s | played today um you guys are going to be |
| 30730s | going up against the los angeles |
| 30732s | gladiators uh is there anyone from the |
| 30734s | gladiators that you are sort of worried |
| 30736s | about for tomorrow's match |
| 30764s | because you know he's pretty good as |
| 30765s | well but i'm not too worried because we |
| 30767s | also have someone that's pretty good |
| 30769s | it's proper so i think we're going to be |
| 30771s | pretty strong as well all right finn |
| 30773s | that is it for the interview thank you |
| 30774s | so much for your time and again big |
| 30775s | congratulations on the win |
| 30782s | all right let's head back to the desk |
| 30783s | everybody |
| 30786s | [Music] |
| 30787s | thank you danny and finn danny are you |
| 30790s | wearing a romper because custa needs to |
| 30792s | know i i was looking at it it has a |
| 30794s | drawstring so it might be a two-piece |
| 30795s | but it definitely has romper vibes to it |
| 30798s | so |
| 30800s | johnny have you ever worn a romper |
| 30801s | before |
| 30803s | it's like a one-piece jump suit kind of |
| 30805s | thing but it has shorts |
| 30808s | one kind of one piece |
| 30810s | and it says animals |
| 30812s | [Music] |
| 30814s | oh you thought oh you thought i'm at the |
| 30816s | anime no i'm not you meant the anime |
| 30818s | what are you saying the anime suits we |
| 30820s | were at the in the pre-show that's a one |
| 30822s | z not a one piece one piece is a anime |
| 30825s | slash manga that apparently i'm from |
| 30827s | sweden all right |
| 30828s | all right all right you know what that |
| 30829s | that does it it's a global phenomenon |
| 30832s | anyways anyways before i get too angry |
| 30834s | congratulations again to the shock 3-0 |
| 30836s | uh guys we went into today saying that |
| 30839s | this was going to be the banger of all |
| 30842s | bingerist matches and it was a clean 3-0 |
| 30845s | sweep and finn even saying oh yeah i |
| 30848s | feel bad that we even gave him a point |
| 30849s | because i felt like we could have ended |
| 30850s | this a whole lot earlier |
| 30852s | yeah honestly that's just i don't know |
| 30854s | if the west is just bleeding into all |
| 30857s | these players but the west is really |
| 30858s | toxic these days and honestly i get |
| 30860s | behind it and when you play a match like |
| 30862s | this can you really blame them this was |
| 30865s | just straight up not close shanghai get |
| 30867s | this first point here on oasis but from |
| 30870s | there it was just the san francisco |
| 30872s | shock show they just it just didn't feel |
| 30874s | like the dragons had an answer to the |
| 30876s | double flex support of finn violet and |
| 30878s | then that just allows proper to move |
| 30880s | around the map sam came in to play that |
| 30882s | sergeant dominated kilo came in also |
| 30885s | dominated it just |
| 30887s | i don't know it felt like the shanghai |
| 30888s | dragons and the issues that they were |
| 30890s | having earlier in this stage really came |
| 30892s | to fruition here as they start to play |
| 30894s | against better teams yeah i think the |
| 30895s | tank flexibility of the shanghai dragons |
| 30897s | is proving to be quite the problem and i |
| 30899s | think i think the san francisco shock if |
| 30901s | i had to guess their game plan was to |
| 30903s | bring out the diva early with kalooz of |
| 30905s | course because they knew that fate he |
| 30907s | would be restricted to play the main |
| 30909s | tank calls you know winston wrecking |
| 30911s | ball he's not really a player you like |
| 30913s | to see on the doomfist or preferably the |
| 30915s | zarya into a diva of course because you |
| 30917s | can't you know shield yourself from the |
| 30919s | soil damage so i think the shanghai |
| 30921s | dragons they're once more suffering from |
| 30922s | this tank flexibility issues and when |
| 30925s | you have these very flexible teams from |
| 30926s | the west like the show like the |
| 30928s | gladiators because of a beautiful 5k by |
| 30930s | the way from proper but when you have |
| 30932s | those tank flexibility issues |
| 30934s | the elite teams are going to expose you |
| 30935s | and take advantage of that so it was a |
| 30937s | very strategic uh |
| 30939s | move from the shock and i mean it paid |
| 30941s | dividends here so i i also kind of want |
| 30943s | to like question some of the decisions |
| 30945s | by the shanghai dragons as well going |
| 30947s | under agavold that's a map the shock |
| 30948s | have not lost this stage and it has not |
| 30950s | been close like collusion on that diva |
| 30952s | has been a massive problem for every |
| 30954s | team and shanghai dragons just kind of |
| 30956s | walked into that one then they go over |
| 30958s | to circle royale yes |
| 30960s | they have lip and he has dominated some |
| 30962s | of the some of the west c or sorry the |
| 30964s | east teams playing that but you're going |
| 30965s | into double flex support you're playing |
| 30967s | into the zen baptiste that we have for |
| 30969s | the show yeah i mean i guess you're |
| 30970s | scared of rude because kalush is going |
| 30972s | to play deeb on the route 662 and then |
| 30973s | like dorado dorado maybe um |
| 30976s | you know |
| 30978s | yeah either way hopefully this sweep is |
| 30980s | a wake-up call for the dragons as they |
| 30982s | drop into the lower bracket and we'll be |
| 30983s | able to take a look at the bracket in |
| 30985s | just a bit but first we've got to talk |
| 30987s | about best of the day let's do it so |
| 30990s | many clips this was a day filled with |
| 30992s | you know |
| 30993s | multiple map 5 games but i'm going to |
| 30996s | bring up mine first and this is actually |
| 30998s | probably my favorite defensive uh play |
| 31000s | of the day and honestly like it was a |
| 31002s | very aggressive opponent i know one that |
| 31005s | came in |
| 31006s | really strong and as you can see right |
| 31008s | here here is winston minding their own |
| 31010s | business trying to eat their bananas and |
| 31012s | peanut butter and just road hog tries to |
| 31014s | come in for the gank and here we see it |
| 31015s | in slow motion you see the extension uh |
| 31018s | almost like right in front of the miata |
| 31020s | kick yeah of sorts so really oh and then |
| 31023s | of course we have the coconut break and |
| 31026s | uh unfortunately uh you know this this |
| 31029s | offense was strong enough to break open |
| 31031s | that coconut |
| 31033s | but you know what was strong enough |
| 31035s | the shock sweep because we do have this |
| 31040s | and there is our flying uh you know |
| 31043s | little flag right there the lower third |
| 31044s | is covering it there you go oh there we |
| 31046s | go that was our prediction coconut oh it |
| 31048s | was always like that yeah exactly |
| 31051s | it knew that the shock was going to win |
| 31052s | i don't think it thought 3-0 but we |
| 31054s | always knew it was always written in the |
| 31056s | coconut yeah it took us seven hours to |
| 31058s | open that coconut that's coconuts |
| 31060s | but those were my plays uh custa how |
| 31062s | about you um i also had a very |
| 31064s | aggressive play but this was uh actually |
| 31066s | in the server this time mn3 uh i'm gonna |
| 31069s | go back to the philadelphia fusion map |
| 31071s | five banger just it's like it happened |
| 31073s | today you know sometimes you think back |
| 31075s | to it and the great moments that happen |
| 31076s | this is mn3 putting a exclamation point |
| 31079s | at the end of this series putting the |
| 31081s | florida mayhem away with just some great |
| 31084s | plays this was the one before that i |
| 31086s | thought they had won with but follower |
| 31088s | mayhem had the point flipped so m three |
| 31090s | just had to do it again comes in in 99 |
| 31093s | 99 gets a great pick on the xe stays |
| 31096s | alive |
| 31097s | dinks out uh checkmate with a double |
| 31099s | dink and it just it's just clean and you |
| 31102s | know i saw someone say this on twitter |
| 31104s | it's like it it gave me shades of carpet |
| 31107s | philadelphia fusion's cafe 28 i'm just |
| 31109s | throwing back to 2018 this year this |
| 31111s | show apparently but 2018 you know that's |
| 31113s | gotta be the winner also when i thought |
| 31114s | of my player days okay you get over it |
| 31116s | am i getting old johnny |
| 31118s | it's all right |
| 31120s | well you used to be a player |
| 31121s | yeah i was pretty good oh i didn't know |
| 31124s | that wow |
| 31126s | brutal |
| 31128s | uh move along anyway uh johnny you have |
| 31131s | a play |
| 31132s | yeah |
| 31134s | i was way more enthusiastic about this |
| 31136s | play before my predictions were proven |
| 31138s | wrong where alfayi was just an absolute |
| 31141s | chad and popped off in the server |
| 31144s | usually he did not trace of course but |
| 31146s | this echo play |
| 31147s | to dodge |
| 31149s | the pulse ball |
| 31151s | he gets stuck i like to believe here |
| 31153s | here he goes and then he duplicates in |
| 31156s | the frames i mean oh my god we we we |
| 31159s | need to go frame by frame here because i |
| 31161s | mean |
| 31164s | i haven't seen this stuff since the |
| 31165s | smash days yeah i mean there's like |
| 31167s | invisible frames |
| 31170s | you know it's unbelievable so i i just |
| 31172s | love that i mean the timing was |
| 31174s | impeccable really but you know then they |
| 31176s | went on to lose the match and everything |
| 31177s | but that moment was |
| 31179s | yeah and actually guys i think we have a |
| 31181s | bonus best of the day from our newest |
| 31185s | member of watchpoint oh baby |

| 31199s | watchpoint desk they they probably won't |
| 31201s | be here but i'm excited for sorry over |
| 31203s | 40 hours that's wow |
| 31206s | amazing job by so and i'm so happy for |
| 31208s | her and her family of course uh |
| 31210s | welcoming this beautiful baby into the |
| 31211s | world yeah think about it for a second |
| 31214s | while we talked about overwatch all day |
| 31217s | so we created life |
| 31219s | well we created a narrative and that is |
| 31222s | just as impressive |
| 31225s | we were dressed up in one season |
| 31227s | absolutely well speaking of which we |
| 31229s | gotta know where the story goes so let's |
| 31231s | go ahead and pull up our brackets to see |
| 31233s | how everything has shaken up with all of |
| 31235s | the results that we've seen from today's |
| 31238s | game since we can see our friday match |
| 31241s | san francisco shock taking on the l.a |
| 31244s | gladiators wow white of california uh on |
| 31248s | for our upper bracket friday match and |
| 31250s | then looking at the losers bracket we do |
| 31253s | see shanghai dragons taking on atlanta |
| 31255s | reign and the hangzhou spark taking on |
| 31258s | philadelphia fusion and of course this |
| 31260s | isn't the order that they're being |
| 31261s | played in we'd have to look at the |
| 31262s | schedule for that so the first match |
| 31265s | that we're gonna see is the rain taking |
| 31266s | on the dragons then we're gonna see the |
| 31268s | rematch of fusion taking on spark then |
| 31271s | of course the la gladiators taking on |
| 31274s | the shock and then that is going to be |
| 31276s | our uh fourth and final game of a |
| 31278s | mystery of whoever loses i think no it's |
| 31281s | whoever wins i think it's the one |
| 31283s | or losers don't coin me on this but it's |
| 31285s | probably the winner of atlanta shanghai |
| 31287s | and philadelphia yes kids are the |
| 31289s | winners |
| 31291s | the colors threw me up i didn't know |
| 31292s | where we were anymore but yes that is |
| 31294s | our bracket and our schedule for the |
| 31296s | rest of the week uh does atlanta beat |
| 31298s | shanghai after that performance |
| 31301s | gentlemen we have an entire pre-show |
| 31303s | tomorrow where we can |
| 31306s | no spoilers there's plenty more coconuts |
| 31308s | to crack open and plenty more oh no i |
| 31310s | think we ran out of onesies our producer |
| 31312s | burned them as soon as he saw us we're |
| 31314s | the best i think oh it's very |
| 31316s | unfortunate but final thoughts before we |
| 31318s | say goodnight |

| 31320s | for the last one there were that was |
| 31322s | some crazy overwatch i'm excited to see |

| 31326s | the west is just the best who would have |
| 31328s | thought eastern eastern teams in |
| 31330s | shambles i don't know how i'm gonna go |
| 31331s | over my preds really |
