| 943s | hello hello everyone and welcome to |
| 946s | calling all heroes major 3 Radiant |
| 949s | Heroes major 3 I'm Ash your host for the |
| 952s | weekend and it's I'm feeling a little |
| 954s | bit like the new kid in town but of |
| 956s | course we've got your staple casters who |
| 958s | have been here here all season long with |
| 960s | you guys that being epitomes and CB CB |
| 964s | how are you doing today did you say |
| 965s | staple casters or stable casters because |
| 967s | I wouldn't describe myself as stable |
| 969s | typically I'm doing great I'm excited |
| 972s | you know last week uh we had all the |
| 974s | Swiss rounds and it really shook up for |
| 976s | like a really interesting playoff |
| 978s | bracket going forward I'm looking |
| 979s | forward to seeing how this all plays out |
| 981s | I can't wait love to hear it and |
| 984s | epitomes how are you feeling about this |
| 986s | weekend I know you were here last |
| 987s | weekend casting with door and whatnot we |
| 990s | had some really interesting games going |
| 991s | on within that swis stage yeah |
| 994s | definitely very exciting and how The |
| 995s | Meta is shaping up as well for a long |
| 998s | while Sigma was very very strong but now |
| 1000s | we're kind of leaning into some more |
| 1002s | edgy picks and some teams you know |
| 1004s | they're playing a lot of things that you |
| 1007s | might not expect especially on the tank |
| 1009s | pick so I'm really excited to see how |
| 1011s | they are going to take things out this |
| 1012s | weekend especially since we know that |
| 1015s | there are some teams that are looking to |
| 1017s | counter one another and there might have |
| 1019s | been some upsets over in the Swiss |
| 1020s | stages as well yeah well before we get |
| 1023s | too deep into the nitty-gritty about |
| 1025s | what's actually been happening and |
| 1027s | whatnot we got to remind you guys that |
| 1028s | it's been a year-long competitive |
| 1030s | circuit here within the regular season |
| 1032s | and this is the last regular season |
| 1034s | event that will be taking place as well |
| 1037s | here within the third major of the year |
| 1039s | the last chance to lock in those circuit |
| 1042s | points that have been adding up for the |
| 1044s | entirety of 2023 for those Championship |
| 1047s | points but don't forget there's also a |
| 1048s | lot chance qualifier for any teams who |
| 1050s | might not be able to make it within |
| 1052s | those points here that will be head |
| 1054s | later on in the New Year within January |
| 1057s | in |
| 1058s | 2024 so now heading back over towards |
| 1061s | these circuit point standings CB |
| 1065s | Timeless ethereal they've been at the |
| 1066s | top of the board for quite a while now |
| 1068s | yeah something interesting though I do |
| 1070s | kind of want to call out here is that |
| 1071s | number two pick right there Tim |
| 1073s | Celestial they didn't make it to |
| 1075s | playoffs they were just a little bit shy |
| 1076s | so this opens the door for someone like |
| 1078s | you know nyxl Embers to kind of solidify |
| 1081s | and for someone like VT blue to kind of |
| 1083s | sneak in it kind of feels like there's |
| 1085s | going to be an ongoing race between VT |
| 1087s | blue and Fable to see who's able to |
| 1088s | claim that spot and you know maybe |
| 1091s | another another Contender can Rise From |
| 1093s | Below and come in and claim that last |
| 1094s | number six |
| 1096s | spot it's a pretty scary time it's now |
| 1100s | or never everything has come down to |
| 1103s | this tala and we've also got to look |
| 1105s | forward towards the format so of course |
| 1108s | those to miss out on last weekend's a |
| 1111s | qualifying portion to the playoffs it |
| 1113s | was that Swiss play for days one and two |
| 1116s | six rounds of Swiss overall for heading |
| 1119s | into playoffs here where we have eight |
| 1121s | teams into a double elimination bracket |
| 1124s | lots of prizing that they're also going |
| 1126s | to be playing out for as well overall |
| 1129s | you've got those placement prizes of |
| 1131s | course overall the pot is 10K first |
| 1134s | place of course buying for that sweet |
| 1135s | sweet |
| 1137s | $5,000 and and then the points that |
| 1139s | range from 9900 points up at the top |
| 1142s | dogs and then all the way down to 12th |
| 1144s | and 16th still being able to earn 100 |
| 1147s | points for yourselves but it's kind of |
| 1149s | difficult to it to kind of break through |
| 1151s | those ranks again the top portion of |
| 1154s | calling all heroes right now is looking |
| 1156s | pretty |
| 1157s | solid yeah Timeless Celestial which is |
| 1160s | currently at the top they seem basically |
| 1163s | Untouchable with 10 over 10,000 circuit |
| 1166s | points with all of their players tallied |
| 1168s | up but at the same time you have time |
| 1171s | Timeless Celestial which was right |
| 1174s | behind them and they didn't make it so |
| 1176s | and 900 points for each player if you |
| 1178s | think about it to your top five players |
| 1180s | 900 Points each that is quite a bit of |
| 1183s | points and you can those tally up very |
| 1185s | quickly I'm not the greatest at math I'm |
| 1187s | going to admit that but I believe it is |
| 1189s | over 4,000 points so that can really |
| 1191s | shoot you up if you are one of those |
| 1193s | lower ranks like 7,000 plus 4,000 that |
| 1196s | can go up to 10,000 who knows fable you |
| 1198s | got a chance here exactly so much on the |
| 1202s | line there and we've actually have some |
| 1205s | extra prizing coming in for major 3 as |
| 1208s | well big shout out over towards be quiet |
| 1211s | for being able to provide some |
| 1213s | additional prizing for these teams this |
| 1215s | opportunity to get some premium German |
| 1218s | hardware for themselves six PC cases six |
| 1222s | power supply units as well if you guys |
| 1224s | want a little bit of a sneak preview I |
| 1226s | think when we come back to cam CB has |
| 1227s | some setup in her background there as |
| 1230s | well but overall a lot on the line and a |
| 1234s | lot that's helpful in a way like I don't |
| 1236s | know some of these players might need a |
| 1237s | little bit of that upgrade to their |
| 1239s | setups right but overall we also now |
| 1242s | have to move on over towards that map |
| 1244s | pool because for major 3 we do have |
| 1247s | flasho coming into the play here and |
| 1251s | tala I want to hear a little bit about |
| 1253s | how these maps have kind of been panning |
| 1256s | out I mean these control Maps they open |
| 1259s | the door for a lot of different team |
| 1261s | compositions last week we did see a lot |
| 1263s | of the Doom dive and I think that's a |
| 1265s | comp that has kind of been taking over |
| 1267s | in some teams over the sigma because |
| 1270s | Doom plays very well into Sigma but |
| 1272s | there's also a lot of technicalities |
| 1274s | that come into playing that team |
| 1275s | composition but I do like this map Pool |
| 1278s | I think it allows for a lot of these |
| 1279s | teams to really narrow their focus and |
| 1281s | on their scrims on their VOD reviews and |
| 1283s | see what they can improve here no yeah |
| 1286s | that is going to be something really to |
| 1289s | look out forward look forward to there |
| 1291s | and CB before we move on from the maps I |
| 1293s | want to get your overall thoughts on |
| 1295s | what's in play here for this event as |
| 1297s | well well for me it's not even like |
| 1299s | what's in Play It's kind of what's not |
| 1300s | in play you know we got some of the |
| 1302s | usual suspects in like kings Ro Midtown |
| 1304s | over in hybrid but push no asira that's |
| 1307s | usually a favorite for a lot of teams |
| 1308s | control you're not going to see a whole |
| 1310s | lot of Le GI Tower Nepal some of these |
| 1312s | like staple maps that a lot of people |
| 1313s | scrim it's a pretty narrow map Pool and |
| 1316s | I think it's going to you know like was |
| 1318s | saying kind of you know be a little bit |
| 1320s | more conducive to either that Sigma |
| 1322s | composition or that doomfist dive comp |
| 1324s | that we've seen a lot of yeah on top of |
| 1326s | that if we do get towards the later Maps |
| 1329s | as well an escort we are doing a first |
| 1332s | to two on these very first upper SE um |
| 1335s | upper quarterfinals so we aren't going |
| 1337s | to really be able to see escort unless |
| 1338s | we see a draw which um I don't think is |
| 1341s | going to happen in this first um in this |
| 1344s | first first to two but once we get to |
| 1346s | the escort Maps as well we have shali |
| 1347s | monastery and Route 66 which once again |
| 1351s | uh opens up the door for a lot of |
| 1352s | different team comps and I think Sigma |
| 1354s | can also be very strong on those Maps as |
| 1356s | well yeah that Broly composition has |
| 1358s | been uh at the Forefront of the metap |
| 1360s | for sure within calling all heroes but |
| 1363s | uh we've talked a lot about the |
| 1364s | challengers portion thus far of calling |
| 1366s | all heroes we also have to give a nod |
| 1368s | over towards our Rising event that is |
| 1371s | happening concurrently as well the |
| 1373s | format for the rising series was that |
| 1376s | round robin two group stages over in |
| 1379s | last week and then this weekend we've |
| 1381s | got the playoffs with six teams in that |
| 1383s | double elimination bracket where they're |
| 1384s | playing it out for $1,000 in Rising and |
| 1389s | I think what's really cool about Rising |
| 1391s | as well is we've doubled the amount of |
| 1394s | teams that signed up since the previous |
| 1396s | event last time I think it was about |
| 1398s | four now we got nine for this event that |
| 1400s | ended up coming through there CV yeah |
| 1402s | and one of the really cool things about |
| 1404s | it is you know at the at the end of the |
| 1406s | day today we're going to have one of |
| 1407s | those Rising series games on your screen |
| 1409s | and then we got another one coming at |
| 1411s | you tomorrow that's going to be Dustin |
| 1412s | and Moxy that are going to be bringing |
| 1413s | that to you a little bit later on today |
| 1415s | so definitely support the uh the calling |
| 1417s | all heroes Rising scene it's also a |
| 1419s | great thing to get involved with if you |
| 1420s | feel like maybe you know you're seeing |
| 1422s | some of the The Challengers players and |
| 1424s | you're like okay these these people |
| 1426s | they're all they're all insane like I C |
| 1428s | I can't play at that level well there's |
| 1429s | still a place for you to learn and grow |
| 1431s | and even get your name you know on the |
| 1433s | screen with the with the rest of the big |
| 1436s | boys out here yeah no it's really sick |
| 1438s | to have like this opportunity for these |
| 1440s | Diamond one blow players so they can |
| 1442s | have that grind and eventually get to |
| 1444s | the point where they're playing within |
| 1445s | the Challenger Series but not only are |
| 1448s | the teams playing for a lot of prizing |
| 1451s | today we've also got some initiatives |
| 1454s | here within chat for you guys as well |
| 1457s | some incentives if you will we've got |
| 1459s | the OverWatch 2 Contender skin drops in |
| 1462s | chat so you guys keep that in mind when |
| 1464s | you're watching on Twitch and looking |
| 1466s | out for these skins and then we've also |
| 1468s | got one of our lovely sponsors with in |
| 1470s | Chipotle who have been offering up 2,000 |
| 1473s | burritos today and tomorrow I believe it |
| 1476s | was 10K burritos over the entirety of |
| 1479s | the event CV has an awesome looking bow |
| 1483s | what did you end up ordering actually so |
| 1485s | so I mean just by the way shout out to |
| 1488s | Avery you know they told me to try the |
| 1489s | Barbacoa I did try that yesterday it's |
| 1491s | slapped but I went back to Old Reliable |
| 1493s | I just do you know a chicken burrito |
| 1495s | bowl double protein cuz you know when |
| 1497s | you when you get hungry later on and |
| 1498s | you're craving a snack it's cuz you |
| 1500s | didn't have enough protein so double up |
| 1501s | on the meat there I also want you guys |
| 1503s | to know that I ordered this like right |
| 1505s | when the stream went live and we had |
| 1506s | like the 15minute timer so this has been |
| 1508s | sitting in front of me and I haven't had |
| 1510s | breakfast so my mouth has been watering |
| 1512s | all day if you hear like the sounds of |
| 1514s | like someone slurping sour cream during |
| 1516s | a team fight that's me I apologize but I |
| 1519s | mean it's it's just that damn |
| 1521s | good hey you can't knock it right I mean |
| 1524s | we're also going to have to look towards |
| 1526s | the MVP of the entire tournament gets |
| 1528s | the opportunity to also win Chipotle for |
| 1530s | the entirety of the year but we also |
| 1532s | can't forget one last opportunity for |
| 1534s | everyone who is watching at home and |
| 1536s | supporting this stream Noble chairs are |
| 1539s | kind enough to give this opportunity to |
| 1541s | give away four chairs over the entirety |
| 1543s | of this weekend so you guys have to stay |
| 1544s | tuned for a bit more information on that |
| 1546s | later to find out how you're going to be |
| 1548s | able to enter that giveaway in |
| 1550s | particular but uh we actually don't have |
| 1552s | to wait too much longer I believe we are |
| 1555s | just about ready to hop into the oper |
| 1558s | recordss so now taking a look over at |
| 1561s | this |
| 1562s | bracket what can you tell me tala about |
| 1565s | the matches that we're seeing coming up |
| 1567s | I know the one that's coming up on |
| 1568s | stream being between drainers and |
| 1570s | Vancouver Titans blue is uh one of the |
| 1572s | tightest matches to anticipate here |
| 1575s | within the |
| 1576s | quarterfinals yeah well drainers they |
| 1578s | play a lot of interesting compositions I |
| 1580s | think they're very flexible in what they |
| 1582s | want to play we saw a with Vancouver |
| 1584s | Titans blue versus Vancouver Titans blue |
| 1586s | today but they playing yeah exactly |
| 1590s | they're playing a little bit of that um |
| 1593s | they're playing a little bit of the Doom |
| 1595s | dive we saw a little bit of Sigma out |
| 1597s | from them as well but I think they are |
| 1598s | very flexible uh CB you talk a lot about |
| 1601s | drainers being able to play the Rind |
| 1603s | heart as well which is a really |
| 1605s | interesting composition and I think how |
| 1607s | that plays into the sigma can also have |
| 1609s | a lot of connotations for how this map |
| 1611s | goes but Vancouver Titans blue on the |
| 1613s | other side it seems like they are very |
| 1615s | strong on the sigma I I I thought that |
| 1618s | drainers were going to come out last |
| 1619s | weekend on that Reinhardt composition |
| 1621s | because I saw them playing it in scrims |
| 1623s | I was like I mean if anyone's going to |
| 1624s | make it work it's going to be kindred |
| 1625s | she's the one who can pull this off so I |
| 1627s | thought that's what they'd come out here |
| 1628s | with but then they mirror the doomfist |
| 1630s | comp against Michael wave actually do |
| 1632s | pretty okay with it and so you know now |
| 1635s | I'm coming into this weekend and I'm |
| 1636s | like I don't even know what I don't even |
| 1638s | know if Kindred knows what she's gonna |
| 1640s | play I they how can they possibly |
| 1642s | predict us if we don't know what we're |
| 1643s | going to do I'm even hearing rumors on |
| 1645s | the streets that this team is running |
| 1646s | something a little bit more raat rushy |
| 1648s | these days so it could realistically go |
| 1651s | in like aund different directions with |
| 1653s | this team but they have a ton of talent |
| 1655s | sent us a phenomenal hit scan player har |
| 1657s | has been a wonderful surprise and the |
| 1659s | backline as solid as ever to enable that |
| 1661s | aggression that Kindred loves man and |
| 1664s | you'll love to hear a little bit about |
| 1665s | that Ram rush but we've also got to flip |
| 1667s | it over to who they're going to be |
| 1668s | facing up against Vancouver Titans blue |
| 1671s | here this squad has a lot to bring to |
| 1674s | the table they've been on the up and up |
| 1676s | here at tala improving very steadily |
| 1678s | over the entirety of |
| 1680s | 2023 yeah unfortunately we didn't see a |
| 1682s | lot of Vancouver Titans blue last week |
| 1685s | they were up against Timeless ethereal |
| 1686s | and they are an incredibly tough team |
| 1688s | Vancouver Titans they had these moments |
| 1691s | of Brilliance though Vancouver Titans |
| 1693s | blue they saw moments where they were |
| 1695s | able to go head-to-head with Timeless |
| 1697s | ethereal which is the top team in the |
| 1698s | bracket thus far and they were able to |
| 1701s | bring a lot of aggression they have |
| 1703s | really good ideas of what they're meant |
| 1704s | to do but sometimes they fall short on |
| 1706s | the execution however all of these |
| 1708s | players are incredibly talented and I |
| 1711s | think that they can potentially flip |
| 1713s | this on Diner's head despite being lower |
| 1716s | in the circuit point standings thus far |
| 1718s | well it's going to be intense that's for |
| 1720s | sure I believe this is the closest |
| 1721s | seated matchup that we have within the |
| 1724s | quarterfinals so I'm looking forward to |
| 1726s | getting straight into it I'm going to |
| 1727s | send you guys both off into the game |
| 1729s | while I get to kick back and watch all |
| 1731s | the |
| 1733s | action thank you very much Ash so we are |
| 1736s | kicking it off on antartic pen and this |
| 1739s | is one of those Maps where I think suble |
| 1741s | might lend itself to a doomfist dive but |
| 1743s | the other two are going to be very very |
| 1745s | Rush fa Rush favored but what flavor of |
| 1748s | Rush are we going to go with is it going |
| 1749s | to be Reinhardt is it going to be Sigma |
| 1752s | is it going to be ratra I suspect from |
| 1754s | the side of Vancouver Titans blue it's |
| 1756s | going to be a little bit more Sigma but |
| 1759s | again like what are drainers I I don't |
| 1761s | want to make it sound like like |
| 1763s | derogatory but what are drainers |
| 1766s | thinking yeah what is drainers thinking |
| 1768s | that is the question of the evening or |
| 1771s | of the morning I guess depending on |
| 1773s | where you are from but drainers they |
| 1776s | could play the Reinhardt I would really |
| 1778s | love to see the Reinhardt because the |
| 1780s | thing about it is maybe there are some |
| 1782s | weaknesses to the rart not being able to |
| 1784s | close as much space or take up as much |
| 1787s | space but at the same time who has |
| 1789s | scrimmed against the reinart how are you |
| 1790s | supposed to know what to do against it I |
| 1793s | mean well VT blue would definitely know |
| 1796s | what to do cuz they have phone who is a |
| 1798s | very well-known Bastion one trick and I |
| 1800s | you |
| 1801s | know personally angry about that I make |
| 1804s | sure to give phone a hard time every |
| 1805s | time you know we're in the VC together |
| 1807s | but you know having that loaded handgun |
| 1809s | that is the Bastion that anybody can |
| 1810s | reach for at any given moment does kind |
| 1812s | of deter people from wanting to jump |
| 1814s | over to that Reinhardt but if anyone's |
| 1817s | going to do it it's going to be drainers |
| 1819s | I don't like you know we were kind was |
| 1821s | flashing the wrecking ball there I don't |
| 1823s | think that's what we're going to see but |
| 1825s | yeah I think that's a troll we're TR |
| 1828s | that's a little bit of a troll but like |
| 1829s | you know she's making us wait until the |
| 1831s | last possible second before she reveals |
| 1833s | her her true hand here her true |
| 1836s | intentions yeah I think that's both of |
| 1837s | these teams actually every single time I |
| 1840s | think we've seen them basically hover |
| 1842s | random picks until the very last second |
| 1844s | and of course if there's a symmetra you |
| 1846s | never know if the symmetra is actually |
| 1848s | going to be going into the game or if |
| 1850s | it's just for that early TP I've seen |
| 1852s | some Surprises with the symmetra |
| 1854s | actually especially on the especially on |
| 1856s | the point with the big big Lifeboat |
| 1858s | where it's just a little closed corner |
| 1860s | and you kind of have so much control |
| 1863s | with the Sentry turrets as well yeah uh |
| 1865s | o over on Icebreaker it's a great thing |
| 1869s | using the turret to kind of like lock |
| 1870s | down any of the three various choke |
| 1872s | points that you have that you kind of |
| 1874s | have to go through in order to access |
| 1876s | the point it's a great use of the |
| 1878s | symmetra and symmetra's beam damage does |
| 1880s | pair very very well with any of these |
| 1882s | Rush compositions also pairs very well |
| 1885s | against a sigma composition you know he |
| 1887s | can't stop the beam damage with his |
| 1888s | biotic grasp there uh so it it just kind |
| 1891s | of becomes one of those things where |
| 1892s | it's like you know if your drainer is |
| 1894s | running the symmetra is beneficial to |
| 1896s | pretty much anything you want to do but |
| 1899s | Senna is also a phenomenal like ranged |
| 1901s | hit scan player she's she excels on like |
| 1904s | the Widowmaker the soier and the ash |
| 1906s | some of these you know mid to long range |
| 1908s | hit scan Heroes and if you can get her |
| 1909s | on that you know that's also going to |
| 1912s | greatly benefit you so you know the |
| 1914s | drainers have a lot of options here I |
| 1915s | would like to see the symmetra stick I |
| 1917s | would would also like to see you know |
| 1918s | maybe we go with that may |
| 1921s | sojourn yeah I've also seen par take out |
| 1924s | the Genji as well as the Tracer so |
| 1926s | something that can follow up really well |
| 1928s | on the Dives it seems like they are |
| 1930s | teasing AAR but I really doubt that they |
| 1934s | are going to take out the far because |
| 1935s | she can be a little bit weak without the |
| 1937s | mercy in the pocket yeah no yeah this is |
| 1940s | uh what drainers are showing right now |
| 1941s | is is is nothing just pretend you don't |
| 1943s | see it we'll wait until they actually |
| 1945s | walk out the door I am blind until they |
| 1947s | walk out door yeah let's have a look |
| 1948s | over on the left hand side of your |
| 1949s | screen where Vancouver Titans blue are |
| 1951s | playing almost exactly what I expect |
| 1953s | them to what should probably swap over |
| 1955s | onto the S towards the end of it but |
| 1956s | again you know it's Close Quarters here |
| 1958s | on all of the points on an artic |
| 1960s | Peninsula so the symmetric could stick |
| 1962s | but yeah no we're going to see dueling |
| 1963s | so on either side and it is actually |
| 1965s | going to be the ram Rush that comes out |
| 1967s | for drainers they want to go in super |
| 1969s | super quick here and take this High |
| 1971s | ground and VT blue already forced to |
| 1973s | vacate yeah cat going to have to take |
| 1975s | off The High Ground they are being w |
| 1977s | from The Retreat thus far but they're |
| 1979s | just able to stay alive peeking around |
| 1980s | the corner Center however with that |
| 1982s | opening kick onto what allows a lot of |
| 1985s | aggression from Kindred saved by the |
| 1986s | immortality field momentarily and going |
| 1988s | to go ahead and into the nemes form to |
| 1990s | try and get a little bit of extra damage |
| 1992s | but they should get |
| 1993s | first yeah they do get the first cap |
| 1995s | there but losing Zep turn means that |
| 1997s | they're not going to be able to hold it |
| 1998s | for very long they have to try and back |
| 1999s | up and give more space and BT blue can |
| 2001s | realistically just go for the flip here |
| 2003s | Sena can kind of save it if she's able |
| 2005s | to hit another early head shot but yeah |
| 2007s | she has no space to do so VT blue are |
| 2008s | going to flip it back in their favor |
| 2010s | draer now there on the outside looking |
| 2012s | in kind of good to have control of that |
| 2015s | high ground right outside the point |
| 2017s | they're getting quite a bit of damage |
| 2018s | onto the cat but going to go ahead and |
| 2020s | back off now they're just kind of |
| 2021s | coralled into this choke point looking |
| 2023s | for away in something interesting about |
| 2025s | drainers comp by the way usually when I |
| 2026s | see this Ram Rush being played it's with |
| 2028s | a MOA but they're still sticking with |
| 2029s | the Baptist and you'd love to have an |
| 2031s | immortality field right now to save |
| 2032s | Kindred she's got the Nemesis for him to |
| 2034s | stay alive and the aggression is being |
| 2036s | kept up here but see blue are still |
| 2038s | ticking up the point |
| 2039s | progress yeah part looking to try and |
| 2041s | solo take the point cat's trying to go |
| 2043s | on the way in there's the immortality |
| 2045s | field cool down already used immortality |
| 2046s | field out and try and get mitigate all |
| 2049s | of that damage z turn and getting a lot |
| 2050s | of healing in the blizzard coming |
| 2052s | through it seems like par can't stay |
| 2054s | alive from phones blizzard and it just |
| 2056s | going be able to save the point on BT |
| 2058s | Blue's side Kindred however now with the |
| 2060s | annihilation finding two without saona |
| 2063s | and CLA BT blue have no way back into |
| 2066s | this point and they flip it over yeah |
| 2068s | but I mean like that's 51% that |
| 2070s | realistically drainer should already |
| 2071s | have that VT blue just kind of snuck out |
| 2073s | from under them and you know they're |
| 2074s | going to come in with that gravitic flux |
| 2076s | you're going to be looking at Lane sound |
| 2077s | barrier to try and cancel that out but |
| 2079s | then what happens when what finally Pops |
| 2080s | that overclock is there going to be an |
| 2082s | angle for that overclock to find the |
| 2083s | value that we really need to I'm not |
| 2086s | really sure there's a lot of really |
| 2087s | tight Corners here and drainers are |
| 2089s | they're in no mood to give any quarter |
| 2091s | no angles that flux is forced out early |
| 2093s | there's the beat BT blue it's in your |
| 2095s | court now oo sna taken down what and |
| 2098s | that's what the overlock nearly built up |
| 2100s | so now they really have to rely on |
| 2102s | phone's damage here but it's just a |
| 2104s | disengage from this squad try and go |
| 2106s | back to the point and make sure that |
| 2107s | they can hold on to something here no |
| 2111s | there is no way for them to get around |
| 2113s | if V blue have about two more fights |
| 2115s | here they're going to have that |
| 2116s | overclock now it's a shame what wasn't |
| 2117s | able to get it in time for that previous |
| 2119s | fight but it's on the board now as is |
| 2120s | saffron a sound barrier so they're going |
| 2123s | to have to use it here to try and |
| 2124s | counteract this blizzard or maybe they |
| 2125s | just go for the kite and by the |
| 2128s | immortality yeah the immortality field |
| 2130s | both of the support ultimates coming out |
| 2133s | Zurn with the amplification Matrix to |
| 2135s | force the position and and it's going to |
| 2137s | be the sound Barry to save from the |
| 2139s | blizzard and now they still have two |
| 2141s | ultimates in BT bl's pocket they have |
| 2143s | that amplification Matrix and they have |
| 2145s | the overlock which is a lot of damage |
| 2147s | that can come out right at once there's |
| 2149s | the amplification Matrix the right click |
| 2151s | doesn't quite connect but Kindred still |
| 2153s | does go down to cat and now what able to |
| 2155s | connect another head shot onto z turn |
| 2158s | it's just going to be the May left on |
| 2159s | the point and potentially Lane trying to |
| 2161s | keep him alive the Lucio dances around |
| 2163s | for a second but BT blue flip the point |
| 2165s | over in this next fight I want to see |
| 2167s | what go ahead and Pop That overclock |
| 2168s | early to try and pressure out you know |
| 2170s | the Nemesis form from Kindred if they |
| 2172s | can or maybe pressure out the |
| 2173s | immortality field early if they can to |
| 2175s | try and follow up with phones blizzard |
| 2177s | here or vice versa you don't want to |
| 2179s | give Senna any angle because if she Pops |
| 2181s | that overclock with an angle heads are |
| 2183s | going to roll and I mean drainers might |
| 2185s | end up taking this first point here |
| 2187s | there's realistically only one more |
| 2188s | fight left for either side Senna on the |
| 2191s | flank is going to be the first one to |
| 2192s | draw blood is she able to find ahe |
| 2195s | though a this looking to be difficult |
| 2198s | it's actually BT blue with their own |
| 2200s | overclock that is finding so much damage |
| 2202s | here the rest of drainers just get |
| 2204s | shredded without Senna on their side and |
| 2206s | it's Lane and Senna that are the only |
| 2208s | two Left Alive up to 90% now for |
| 2212s | Vancouver Titans blue and it is last |
| 2214s | fight territory for the both of them LAN |
| 2217s | getting taken down can't build up the |
| 2219s | sound barrier and now the only ultimate |
| 2221s | realistically that they might have to |
| 2223s | save is the annihilation but that they |
| 2225s | just can't touch that was a critical |
| 2227s | error by Lane there that touch came in |
| 2229s | way too early you need to try and like |
| 2231s | you know get in that towards those last |
| 2233s | couple seconds where you can trigger |
| 2234s | overtime cuz VT blue made some mistakes |
| 2236s | as well they didn't really need to |
| 2238s | invest their gravitic flux but they did |
| 2240s | and they had no ults so if drainers had |
| 2242s | come in played for the sound Bearer and |
| 2244s | the annihilation they could have flipped |
| 2246s | it and ended up taking that whole point |
| 2247s | but I mean Lane just kind of you know |
| 2250s | inadvertently donates that point over to |
| 2252s | VT blue so early lead going in favor of |
| 2256s | uh of Vancouver Titans |
| 2257s | blue yeah I mean Lane was what they were |
| 2260s | really relying on with the speed boost |
| 2262s | to be able to get the last second touch |
| 2264s | and also being the closest to building |
| 2265s | up the sound barrier Kindred might have |
| 2267s | been able to chain that into the |
| 2268s | annihilation but now onto the second |
| 2270s | Point drainer making quite a few |
| 2272s | mistakes here and Vancouver Titans blue |
| 2275s | now having the upper hand in now I know |
| 2277s | Vancouver Titans blue have been |
| 2279s | scrimming and practicing a lot even |
| 2280s | against this specific composition that |
| 2282s | drainers are running so they do know how |
| 2283s | to beat it and you can't give them the |
| 2285s | opportunity to do so they're going to |
| 2287s | have to try and clean some things up |
| 2288s | they can't be making mistakes like that |
| 2290s | keep the point in contest keep the |
| 2291s | fundamentals of control you know in the |
| 2293s | back of their minds or at the Forefront |
| 2294s | of their minds right now they're doing a |
| 2296s | great job controlling BT blue |
| 2297s | controlling this High Ground they should |
| 2299s | be able to translate this into a first |
| 2301s | point cap especially if Senna is able to |
| 2303s | get an angle just like this one forces |
| 2305s | the ice block early yeah the ice blocks |
| 2308s | now out they're going to use that wall |
| 2310s | to try and escape from all the damage |
| 2311s | that's using the immortality field on |
| 2313s | Zan side though and Lane goes down |
| 2315s | having to rely on Zurn for some kind of |
| 2317s | sustain but cat takes down par anyway |
| 2320s | now it's all up to Senna to try and get |
| 2323s | the damage through but there is just so |
| 2325s | much upfront damage and what is doing |
| 2327s | such an excellent job on this sojourn to |
| 2329s | force the positioning and get all that |
| 2331s | damage out that was just a couple pixels |
| 2333s | away from phone losing a losing a skull |
| 2335s | there and I mean that would have been |
| 2336s | the point in the favor of drainers but |
| 2338s | having that ice block ready to go and |
| 2340s | then somehow being able to find Lane cat |
| 2342s | with a nice 2K to open that one up takes |
| 2344s | it for VT blue and again drainers they |
| 2346s | have to try and find a way in and they |
| 2348s | have to clean up some of these mistakes |
| 2349s | they're not in a good position to punish |
| 2350s | the ones that BT blue are making but you |
| 2352s | know on the contrary VT blue are |
| 2354s | punishing every little misstep that |
| 2356s | drainers make yeah drainers they were |
| 2358s | just all stuck in this little corner |
| 2360s | that's the immortality field cool down |
| 2361s | once again but they have Kindred on the |
| 2364s | other side of the wall they need to get |
| 2365s | their way through to make sure that |
| 2366s | they're tank stays up but phone with an |
| 2368s | icicle taking down Zurn and now relying |
| 2370s | on Lane not too close to that sound |
| 2373s | barrier so it's not going to be a great |
| 2375s | fight for drainers thus far already up |
| 2377s | to 40% with two fights down the drain I |
| 2380s | mean yeah I mean drainers they're going |
| 2381s | to have a lot of ultimates they're |
| 2382s | making a couple switches here off of the |
| 2384s | sojer and over onto the reaper off the |
| 2386s | Baptist and over onto the Moira this is |
| 2388s | the ram Rush comp that I've seen a lot |
| 2390s | more of I've seen it played in Korean |
| 2392s | flash Ops especially on maps like leang |
| 2394s | tower maps where you go turbo Uber |
| 2396s | aggressive aggressive now drainers have |
| 2398s | that and they should be able to pressure |
| 2399s | down cat with all of this damage and you |
| 2401s | can see they I was going to say they |
| 2403s | want do just that but it's no they're |
| 2405s | actually going to wrap around take the |
| 2406s | high ground and pressure off the |
| 2408s | backline yeah now forcing the back line |
| 2411s | to back very far away from cat and they |
| 2414s | still have this isolated fight now |
| 2415s | against the DPS and the tank going to go |
| 2418s | ahead and take out the Nemesis for him |
| 2419s | but what might be able to clutch this |
| 2421s | back with the help of the overclock |
| 2422s | hitting every single head shot possible |
| 2425s | this Reaper is not going to be long for |
| 2427s | life as Senna Goes Down And even with |
| 2430s | such good positioning right |
| 2440s | out not entirely sure okay just making |
| 2442s | sure it's not just me all right we're |
| 2444s | good is there going to be a touch here |
| 2445s | looks like Lane is going in for the |
| 2448s | touch no sorry that's par coming in and |
| 2449s | Kindred back on the doomfist but this is |
| 2451s | desperation mode for trainers oh my gosh |
| 2454s | yeah what is just doing so much damage |
| 2456s | to this back line there seems to be |
| 2458s | nothing that they can do they have no |
| 2460s | way of contesting what up on The High |
| 2462s | Ground and now they're going to go ahead |
| 2463s | with the gravitic flux the doomfist |
| 2465s | coming out from Kindra to take down and |
| 2468s | okay there is just no connection there |
| 2470s | from the ultimate on the sigma which is |
| 2472s | good for drainers to keep this overtime |
| 2474s | in contention cat trying to pressure out |
| 2476s | Senna but par going down to what once |
| 2479s | again now without the harass of the |
| 2481s | Tracer onto the back line and the |
| 2482s | blizzard coming through from phone going |
| 2484s | to pressure out Kindred and they just |
| 2486s | get melted there needs to be some way |
| 2488s | for them to keep on top fit Lane however |
| 2491s | can't escape from the freezing cold of |
| 2494s | ma ice gun and Vancouver Titans blue in |
| 2497s | a 20 fashion take that first map that |
| 2501s | looked decisive shout out Cat by the way |
| 2504s | for that accretion onto the coalescing |
| 2505s | Moira that's not an easy shot to hit a |
| 2507s | lot of Moira will you know hold on to |
| 2509s | their fade for specifically that cool |
| 2511s | down you know I I'm not actually I don't |
| 2513s | want to call it cuz I don't know if Zep |
| 2515s | turn did it or not but there is is like |
| 2517s | this new thing recently that a lot of |
| 2519s | Moyer players forget cuz you know she's |
| 2521s | never really meta that you can fade |
| 2523s | while in coalesence now so you can kind |
| 2525s | of Dodge those sort of things if that |
| 2527s | cooldown wasn't available and cat called |
| 2529s | that out and just went for that |
| 2530s | accretion that's a huge play that shuts |
| 2532s | down any Lifeline that drainers had but |
| 2534s | to put themselves in that position where |
| 2535s | they're relying on that Lifeline is |
| 2538s | already kind of an underperformance from |
| 2539s | drainers I expected them to come out a |
| 2541s | lot more aggressive a lot more Angry a |
| 2544s | lot more hungry you know I I expected |
| 2546s | them to come out uh gets get a little |
| 2548s | bit more value out of this CTI pick on |
| 2550s | the soj cuz she is phenomenal on the soj |
| 2553s | but it looked like what to be or what |
| 2554s | was the stronger soj in that matchup and |
| 2557s | I mean it's a little disappointing it's |
| 2559s | a great start for BT blue who like |
| 2562s | mentioned earlier are in kind of a |
| 2564s | pseudo race with Fable to see who can |
| 2566s | get the most points to try and secure |
| 2568s | that Championship spot but if you're |
| 2570s | drainers you know you want to make sure |
| 2571s | that you're not at risk of falling out |
| 2573s | of favor as |
| 2574s | well yeah I mean drainers they are not |
| 2577s | incredibly far ahead of the rest you |
| 2580s | know it's not a Timeless uh Timeless |
| 2582s | ethereal kind of position where you have |
| 2585s | that those 10K points to fall back on |
| 2587s | joiners especially after losing to |
| 2590s | Michael wave in the Swiss stages as well |
| 2592s | and kind of getting a worse seating |
| 2594s | overall it's definitely going to be a |
| 2596s | really tough one and you can see the |
| 2597s | head-to-head between phone and Par lots |
| 2600s | of damage done on phone side and Par |
| 2603s | kind of Falls a little bit short over on |
| 2606s | drainers so you can kind of see the |
| 2609s | differences in the amount of |
| 2611s | eliminations and damage being done only |
| 2614s | in the DPS line the the biggest the |
| 2616s | biggest takeaway here though is like one |
| 2618s | death versus seven I mean this just kind |
| 2620s | of shows like that that's the whole map |
| 2622s | across both points we only played two so |
| 2625s | it is what it is but it's like if you |
| 2627s | equate every death to a one or lost team |
| 2630s | fight that kind of equates to Vancouver |
| 2632s | Titans blue realistically only |
| 2634s | decisively losing one team fight whereas |
| 2636s | trainers they can't they can't seem to |
| 2638s | just buy themselves away into the point |
| 2639s | for free they're constantly losing their |
| 2641s | May or they're constantly losing their |
| 2642s | Lucio I there's a lot of like just |
| 2645s | General sloppiness on the side of |
| 2647s | drainers that they need to clean up and |
| 2648s | you know what it's it's a new weekend |
| 2650s | it's the first round we you know maybe |
| 2652s | maybe we're a little bit cold we're a |
| 2654s | little rusty we got to shake the nerves |
| 2655s | off we got to get back in the groove we |
| 2657s | got to play like the drainers that I |
| 2658s | know and love the drainers that I like |
| 2660s | to see the ones that you know are |
| 2662s | setting the tempo forcing the enemy team |
| 2664s | to adapt to react right now the practice |
| 2667s | that Vancouver Titans blue has put in |
| 2668s | has paid paid off in Spades and drainers |
| 2672s | look kind of out of |
| 2674s | practice Yeah I mean this was a really |
| 2677s | big contrast to the drainers that we saw |
| 2680s | last week as well even though they ended |
| 2682s | up losing in their match on stream |
| 2685s | against Michael wave even on that first |
| 2687s | map they looked so strong they looked so |
| 2689s | coordinated very aware of the |
| 2691s | positioning and the pitfalls of the comp |
| 2694s | that they were running and where those |
| 2695s | weaknesses were were and because they |
| 2697s | were able to identify them it was a lot |
| 2699s | easier for them to beat a Michael wave |
| 2702s | in the doomfist mirror but now on the |
| 2704s | remacha rush it seems like they are |
| 2706s | getting singled out a lot they're not |
| 2708s | able to contest what who looked like the |
| 2710s | stronger hit scan player in this matchup |
| 2713s | especially being able to get so much |
| 2715s | value from those overclocks time and |
| 2718s | time again now over on Kings Row I think |
| 2720s | this plays right into Vancouver Titans |
| 2722s | Blues hands since they do love that |
| 2725s | Sigma composition on the sigma seems to |
| 2727s | be so strong very aware of the weak |
| 2730s | points of Diner's composition I speaking |
| 2732s | of Diner's composition like I don't |
| 2734s | think that this map is like |
| 2736s | disadvantageous for them but I think |
| 2737s | they do need to play that more |
| 2738s | aggressive variant that we didn't see |
| 2740s | until like the very tail ends of |
| 2742s | antartic peninsula I think you know if |
| 2744s | you're going to play this you do want to |
| 2745s | have the reaper you need to have that |
| 2747s | constant threat of the burst damage on |
| 2748s | either your tank or your backline you do |
| 2750s | need to kind of play the Moira you can |
| 2752s | you know you're not riing entirely on |
| 2754s | the lamp cool down you know Reliant |
| 2756s | entire on whether or not you have |
| 2757s | immortality field you can kind of keep |
| 2759s | some of that consistent healing build up |
| 2761s | to those fast coal Essences and then |
| 2762s | continue to put out the aggressive the |
| 2764s | aggressive pressure that way the Baptist |
| 2767s | is great for keeping the tank alive yeah |
| 2769s | but the the ultimate ability and just |
| 2772s | the rest of the way that bapti plays in |
| 2774s | the neutral I don't think is nearly as |
| 2775s | conducive to the way that drainers |
| 2777s | should be playing this comp what value |
| 2778s | is the ratra getting that the sigma |
| 2780s | wouldn't be if you know drainer just |
| 2783s | mirror yeah I feel like the mirror is a |
| 2786s | ability here but they're going to try |
| 2787s | out the ratra once again just for a |
| 2789s | little bit longer to see if they can |
| 2791s | break through this first choke point |
| 2793s | getting a lot of damage just being |
| 2795s | mitigated by the wall already forcing |
| 2797s | out the immortality field cool down and |
| 2799s | an icing cold to the Dome is going to |
| 2801s | take down Zurn without Baptist where is |
| 2804s | the uh Kindred going to go the down and |
| 2808s | it's just a decisively one team fight |
| 2810s | the immortality field was used really |
| 2811s | really early there and like I said once |
| 2813s | that cool down is down it's so hard to |
| 2815s | keep that aggression up you don't have |
| 2816s | the ability to just keep your keep your |
| 2818s | tank alive the entire time drainers are |
| 2820s | actually going to make wh sale swaps |
| 2822s | over to the doomfist dive composition |
| 2824s | that we saw them play against Michael |
| 2825s | wave we know they know how to play this |
| 2827s | but I do have it on good authority that |
| 2828s | VT blue have also been practicing |
| 2830s | against this comp as well so they should |
| 2832s | in theory know how to beat it keep an |
| 2834s | eye on phone and Zep turn I mean that |
| 2837s | advice goes double for you right now yep |
| 2840s | phone just going straight after par over |
| 2843s | on The High Ground trying to get that |
| 2844s | Flank In zap turn is such such a sore |
| 2847s | point for drainers thus far constantly |
| 2849s | getting picked off by the DPSS of BT |
| 2851s | blue constantly getting focused and it's |
| 2853s | really hard to keep this burst healing |
| 2856s | into the team when you need it so badly |
| 2858s | for that for Kindred especially on the |
| 2860s | doomfist so what's going to happen here |
| 2862s | on the side of V blue typically is |
| 2863s | you're going to see phone trying to hunt |
| 2865s | down and mark the against you can even |
| 2866s | see that right now going in deep to try |
| 2868s | and get par they do saphrona should also |
| 2870s | be there to assist if phone needs it but |
| 2873s | it looks like y there we go there's the |
| 2874s | there's the duo they're going to try and |
| 2875s | pressure down Kindred and while Kindred |
| 2877s | is trapped in this corner she can't get |
| 2879s | anything realistically done and the rest |
| 2881s | of the team can't get through the choke |
| 2882s | so BT blue they just kind of hold for |
| 2885s | free yeah Kindra trying to really hard |
| 2888s | to follow up and protect R trying to get |
| 2890s | the two to pressure out the rest of |
| 2893s | Vancouver Titans blue but Kindred really |
| 2895s | needs some solid sight lines from zap |
| 2898s | turn to just keep themselves up without |
| 2900s | anyone else in the |
| 2902s | corner we'll have to see if she's able |
| 2904s | to get any value here that's a huge nade |
| 2907s | that comes out from z turn though that's |
| 2908s | going to force the sound barrier on it |
| 2910s | own yeah and now the sound barrier and |
| 2912s | the amplification Matrix alongside that |
| 2915s | trtic flux now the blizzard every single |
| 2917s | ultimate just being used by BT blue they |
| 2921s | only had that over clock left but they |
| 2923s | ultimate should be able to get them a |
| 2925s | decisive Fight Win and it does this next |
| 2927s | fight win though should be drers to win |
| 2929s | they do have the meteor strike so kendri |
| 2930s | can keep that aggression up if she needs |
| 2932s | to more importantly though they have the |
| 2934s | nanoade and that is the one thing that |
| 2936s | can beat BT Blue's comp especially |
| 2938s | without having that sound barrier on the |
| 2940s | field you know the fact that that was |
| 2941s | forced out in the previous fight that |
| 2943s | means this should be a free Fight Win |
| 2944s | For drainers look for either a big anate |
| 2947s | to open it up or just go in raw with |
| 2948s | that Dragon Blade never mind's dead well |
| 2952s | yeah par is gone and now they're just |
| 2955s | going to have to find some way to kind |
| 2957s | of sustain through this fight they have |
| 2959s | less than a minute left over to cap this |
| 2961s | first point and Vancouver Titans blue |
| 2963s | they are holding strong they still have |
| 2965s | that overclock we've seen what get |
| 2967s | insane value out of that overclock |
| 2969s | Kindred is going to go ahead and go in |
| 2971s | with the meteor strike now with the |
| 2973s | nanoblade to come through par looking to |
| 2975s | take down the DPS and does so a huge |
| 2978s | downo blade now only cat left over to |
| 2981s | contest but not for long and that's just |
| 2983s | the ultimate stack to take that first |
| 2986s | point that's I mean beautiful use of the |
| 2987s | nanoade that's a 5k for par that's |
| 2989s | exactly what you wanted to see it was a |
| 2991s | little bit scary there cuz it looked |
| 2992s | like Kindred got her meteor strike |
| 2994s | forced out early and it looks like draer |
| 2995s | actually don't even want to stay on this |
| 2996s | comp yeah they're going back over onto |
| 2998s | the ratra so you know okay at least it's |
| 3001s | you know that that Moira variant of the |
| 3002s | ratra comp so they can keep the |
| 3004s | aggression up a little more again |
| 3005s | they're not reliant on whether or not |
| 3007s | they have the immortality field |
| 3008s | available but you know VT blue the |
| 3010s | windows are starting to close they're |
| 3011s | about to start building up to the |
| 3012s | gravitic flux they're about to start |
| 3013s | building up to the blizzards some of |
| 3015s | these cool Downs where maybe now you |
| 3016s | would like to have an immortality |
| 3018s | field yeah the great thing about the |
| 3020s | Moira though is she builds up that |
| 3022s | ultimate incredibly quickly the |
| 3024s | coalescence could come through and could |
| 3026s | potentially sustain them through some of |
| 3028s | these bigger ultimates Theona goes down |
| 3030s | which is a huge pick from Senna to start |
| 3032s | things off and allows Kindra to push a |
| 3034s | little bit further now they have that |
| 3036s | gravitic flux come through looking to |
| 3038s | take down Kindred forces out the Nemesis |
| 3039s | form there's some of the healing to come |
| 3041s | through but it is not enough to stop the |
| 3044s | right click from the rail gun and what |
| 3046s | will take down the tank drainer is going |
| 3048s | to have to save off the pressure and |
| 3049s | back away it's a great wall that comes |
| 3051s | through from phone there by the way to |
| 3052s | section off and force the rest you know |
| 3054s | section off Kindred and force force that |
| 3056s | healing to just cease no no more no more |
| 3058s | access to your Moira that's going to be |
| 3060s | a decisive kill there onto Kindred and a |
| 3062s | dead tank is a dead push VT blue they |
| 3065s | can definitely Force out that Nemesis |
| 3066s | form for Kindred early and maybe get |
| 3068s | that Dead tank early especially with |
| 3070s | this uh with this oncoming |
| 3072s | blizzard yeah phone looking at the |
| 3074s | position already taken down zepter so |
| 3077s | doesn't even need the blizzard here just |
| 3079s | opening things up onto Kindred and |
| 3081s | leaves the rest of the team straggling |
| 3083s | trying to find some way back in and |
| 3086s | going to pressure them back into their |
| 3087s | spawn once again and they do have the |
| 3088s | coalescence this time and they're coming |
| 3090s | up on the sound barrier so I mean if |
| 3092s | phone Waits too long to pull the trigger |
| 3093s | on this blizard you will at least have |
| 3095s | that counter I think you want to open |
| 3096s | with the coalesence here early try and |
| 3098s | you know use that to just pressure VT |
| 3100s | blue back maybe make some space to hit |
| 3102s | with the overclock but you have to find |
| 3104s | some kills with |
| 3106s | it the overclock being built up very |
| 3109s | quickly by W as well but on drainer side |
| 3112s | they don't have a blizzard the blizzard |
| 3114s | comes out from foam the coalescent |
| 3116s | though Zep is going to be able to |
| 3117s | sustain the team throughout that |
| 3120s | ultimate now it's up to what to try and |
| 3122s | find some picks with the DBS ultimate |
| 3123s | but it's going to be the sound barrier |
| 3125s | from saona as soon as Senna decides to |
| 3128s | use that overclock to sustain them and |
| 3130s | they have to back off they have to save |
| 3132s | off some of this pressure hiding behind |
| 3133s | sigma's shield and it allows the point |
| 3136s | to push a little bit further but no |
| 3138s | further than that now it's the reengage |
| 3140s | to come through with the Blizzard from |
| 3142s | par and What needs to find some ways to |
| 3144s | use overclock cat go down needs to use |
| 3147s | something but it's just the immortality |
| 3150s | field that's already forced through what |
| 3152s | now finding Senna at the annihilation |
| 3154s | comes through can't back away just stuck |
| 3156s | on the wall stuck on a little bit of |
| 3158s | that texture and they're able to cap to |
| 3160s | the second Point yeah there was a very |
| 3162s | ambitious overclock from what there I |
| 3163s | think you know I I think BT blue thought |
| 3165s | they still had enough resources to where |
| 3167s | they could pressure out the uh the |
| 3168s | annihilation from Kindred try and make |
| 3170s | it so she can't go too aggressive with |
| 3172s | it but I mean d still at full strength |
| 3174s | all they have to do is stack point and |
| 3175s | push it the rest of the way through a |
| 3177s | minute and 17 to try and get it to the |
| 3179s | end of Point C here and only an amp |
| 3180s | Matrix to try and slow the pace down |
| 3182s | versus a coalesence on the side of Zep |
| 3184s | turn if you're drainers you want to keep |
| 3186s | this aggression going look for an |
| 3187s | opening to use another coalescence keep |
| 3189s | Kindred alive please oh there is the amp |
| 3193s | Matrix from overhead but saona goes down |
| 3195s | immediately pendred however is there for |
| 3198s | the trade and it's seems like BT blue |
| 3201s | with what's aggression and the rail gun |
| 3203s | is able to force out some of the cool |
| 3206s | downs from drainers including that |
| 3208s | coalesence what has looked really really |
| 3210s | good on the soier in these past couple |
| 3211s | of maps I'm loving what I'm seeing |
| 3213s | coming out of Vancouver Titans blue |
| 3215s | again aside from that one overclock that |
| 3217s | was a little bit ambitious it's been |
| 3219s | pretty much nothing but the good head |
| 3220s | shot nothing but beating out Senna in |
| 3222s | that duel and that's really really |
| 3224s | important because one of the easiest |
| 3225s | ways to shut down the aggression from |
| 3228s | any of these Rush comps is to just snipe |
| 3230s | somebody before they can get |
| 3233s | close yeah it it seems like what just |
| 3237s | has such a good hold on this Senna one |
| 3240s | to one cat just trying to be pressured |
| 3242s | out by the wall from May but is still |
| 3244s | going to go ahead contest that point |
| 3246s | make sure they can't push it any further |
| 3248s | overtime is incoming and the gravitic |
| 3250s | flux comes through right before however |
| 3252s | it does miss the immortality field from |
| 3254s | Zurn comes out quickly but what with a |
| 3257s | such a huge disruptor shot alongside |
| 3260s | phone's blizzard to close things out 38 |
| 3264s | M on 3 the combo T that was amazing that |
| 3269s | was so much more than just the disruptor |
| 3271s | shot too that was the gravitic flux into |
| 3273s | the ice box that was that blizzard |
| 3275s | coming out from phone and then the |
| 3276s | disruptor shot to just clean it up and |
| 3277s | you know I mean it's going to look |
| 3279s | really flashy what gets a 3K but |
| 3281s | realistically like everybody on the side |
| 3282s | of trainers they had like a sliver of HP |
| 3285s | have a look at the oims column by the |
| 3287s | way phone is paying dividends for this |
| 3289s | team right now phenomenal may play |
| 3292s | coming out from Vancouver Titans blue |
| 3293s | and a lot of the ways that they |
| 3295s | composition wants to play is contingent |
| 3297s | on phone performing well like I've |
| 3299s | mentioned you know if drers want to play |
| 3300s | the doomfist you got to pressure out the |
| 3302s | enemy Genji if they're going to play |
| 3304s | against an enemy rush you got to make |
| 3305s | sure that your walls are on point and |
| 3307s | you know while all of that's happening |
| 3309s | it's just helping to set up the shots |
| 3310s | for what whether it's the disruptor shot |
| 3312s | or whether it's a rail shot that Senna |
| 3314s | never saw coming it's enough to get VT |
| 3316s | blue the cap or get the get them the |
| 3318s | hold there hopefully it's enough to get |
| 3321s | them the cap if they want to you know |
| 3322s | keep their uh keep their hopes of |
| 3323s | getting as much circuit points as |
| 3325s | possible possible |
| 3326s | alive yeah also wanting to shout out how |
| 3329s | many deaths particularly the backline |
| 3332s | has from drainers but whoo there's that |
| 3333s | Reinhard to come through zepter has been |
| 3336s | pressured out quite a few times with |
| 3337s | four deaths to Claire's one so this |
| 3340s | bapti really has been taking on the |
| 3342s | brunt of so much of this damage that's |
| 3345s | coming through from Vancouver Titans |
| 3346s | blue because they know without Zurn and |
| 3348s | if there's no sound barrier online there |
| 3350s | is basically no way to keep your tank |
| 3352s | alive it's going to be a first shot from |
| 3355s | what going to Instead try and switch |
| 3358s | onto the soj instead without that first |
| 3360s | shot curious to see if this is going to |
| 3363s | work out in favor of drainers cuz like I |
| 3364s | said this is what I've seen them scrim I |
| 3366s | know they are very good at this comp but |
| 3367s | they're doing so without a symmetra so |
| 3369s | it might be a little bit harder to save |
| 3371s | their Reinhardt if Kindred ends up |
| 3373s | getting in trouble if a a big wall comes |
| 3375s | into play or if what just finds another |
| 3377s | opening pick oh okay what is just on |
| 3380s | fire just uncontested on The High Ground |
| 3383s | as well usually it would be par maybe |
| 3385s | turning around and trying to get this |
| 3387s | pressure onto The High Ground on Close |
| 3389s | Quarters but there is just nothing to be |
| 3391s | found here in a matter of seconds |
| 3393s | Vancouver Titans blue have won a team |
| 3395s | fight for strainers back into their |
| 3398s | spawn and should be able to get at the |
| 3399s | very least two ticks before the reengage |
| 3401s | come through from drainers and it does |
| 3403s | so the accretion however and now the |
| 3406s | walls come through there's still the |
| 3407s | contention there and using reinart to |
| 3409s | force themselves through the disruptor |
| 3411s | shot however CLA and that rail gun from |
| 3415s | what shredding through the shield |
| 3416s | without the tank to be the meat shield |
| 3418s | for the squad zpp you can weave in and |
| 3420s | out of those shots but there is no way |
| 3423s | you are going to stop this payload I I I |
| 3425s | really think that Senna needs to make a |
| 3426s | swap here if trainers are going to make |
| 3427s | this composition stick you know you need |
| 3429s | to have the Frontline pressure there's |
| 3430s | that Sim swap that's exactly what I want |
| 3432s | to see because you can see like Kindred |
| 3434s | she's forced to just hold up her Shield |
| 3436s | the whole time while taking a pounding |
| 3437s | from all five members of VT blue and |
| 3440s | it's only so long before that Shield |
| 3441s | cracks and two does the entire drainer |
| 3444s | defense now that you have that symmetry |
| 3446s | you can keep the front line pressure up |
| 3448s | you can burn down cat Shield try and |
| 3450s | burn through that grasp maybe even put |
| 3452s | out a bunch of pressure for some |
| 3453s | rotations out from either phone or what |
| 3456s | this is where it's going to get a lot |
| 3457s | more quick moving and a lot more |
| 3459s | coordinated for |
| 3461s | drainers yeah now drainers they are |
| 3464s | forcing themselves forward onto the |
| 3466s | payload they know that they have that |
| 3468s | amp Matrix behind them so the |
| 3470s | positioning has been just a little bit |
| 3472s | more defensive on the other side though |
| 3474s | the G flux comes out immediately they |
| 3477s | have the ant Matrix as well taking down |
| 3478s | the Sentry turrets on the way in and |
| 3481s | they're trying to get as much damage as |
| 3483s | possible immortality field they know the |
| 3484s | cool down is gone and with phone with |
| 3487s | the having the blizzard as well oh |
| 3490s | they're able to block the shatter from |
| 3492s | the Reinhardt almost nobody goes down |
| 3494s | and Theona finding Kindred Zenna is able |
| 3496s | to get a pick on to what but it's not |
| 3499s | going to be enough drainers they're |
| 3500s | falling apart as we speak sen however |
| 3503s | another pick on the phone it is just a |
| 3506s | consolation prize though it seems like |
| 3508s | they should be able to get this full |
| 3510s | capture if drers want to win the point |
| 3512s | this is where they should be holding |
| 3514s | they needed to win that fight but they |
| 3515s | don't it's going to get so so dicey |
| 3517s | their backs are going to be up against |
| 3519s | the wall and sure they have the ults for |
| 3521s | maybe one or two fights but you got 5 |
| 3523s | minutes to not even get halfway through |
| 3526s | this looks like Vancouver Titans Blue's |
| 3528s | map to lose here drainers I I if you're |
| 3530s | Kindred you definitely wish you still |
| 3532s | had that |
| 3533s | shatter yeah kindred having that shatter |
| 3536s | blocked it's just so devastating and |
| 3538s | immediately the overclock now forcing |
| 3540s | out the immortality field from zeptor |
| 3542s | the sound barrier from Lane has to come |
| 3544s | through and Senna is looking for some |
| 3547s | more damage saona goes down to Kindred |
| 3550s | now without the sound barrier from |
| 3552s | Vancouver Titans blue it's a disengage |
| 3554s | trainers they're holding on to this |
| 3555s | point holding on for dear life yeah for |
| 3558s | yeah holding on for de is a great way to |
| 3560s | put it they're going to have to ult |
| 3562s | cycle perfectly I mean you got to open |
| 3563s | with the ant Matrix try and force GT |
| 3565s | Blue Back Then go with the photon |
| 3566s | barrier hopefully use that to build up |
| 3569s | to a shatter cuz you don't really have |
| 3570s | much else you don't have the photon |
| 3571s | barrier anymore cuz phone just took it |
| 3573s | away from you phone immediately taking |
| 3576s | down Senna what a good opening pick |
| 3578s | however the immortality field forc out |
| 3580s | from CLA going to allow drainers a |
| 3582s | little bit more aggression as the |
| 3583s | gravitic flux comes through to save off |
| 3585s | that pressure and now it's just cat and |
| 3587s | Kindred in one another's faces now the |
| 3589s | photon barrier from Senna weaving in and |
| 3592s | out Shield dancing to try and get onto |
| 3594s | that payload make sure it doesn't get |
| 3595s | any further than that bone getting a lot |
| 3598s | of damage down and the the amp Matrix is |
| 3600s | going to force that fight Kindred goes |
| 3602s | down they were trapped with the back |
| 3604s | against the wall quite literally and now |
| 3606s | drainers how are you supposed to contest |
| 3608s | this Senna gets up onto The High Ground |
| 3610s | trying to drop down onto the point but |
| 3612s | immediately goes down and now the |
| 3613s | Blizzard from phone you cannot contest |
| 3616s | through this the ice block does come |
| 3618s | through maybe there is some of |
| 3620s | contention from car building up to the |
| 3622s | Blizzard throws it out but there is |
| 3624s | nothing to do done Vancouver Titans blue |
| 3627s | they are looking like this is just |
| 3630s | running over drainers second map into |
| 3635s | their pockets Vancouver Titans blue 20 |
| 3638s | fashion beating out trainers that is |
| 3641s | this is not what I expected at all like |
| 3643s | I we talked about how Vancouver Titans |
| 3645s | blue have been improving as a team I |
| 3647s | mentioned how much practice I have |
| 3648s | personally witnessed them putting in |
| 3651s | against the compositions that drainers |
| 3652s | like to play the prep work paid off but |
| 3655s | but I still expected a lot more from |
| 3656s | drainers they looked lost they looked |
| 3658s | like you know they didn't know what they |
| 3660s | wanted to play or how they wanted to |
| 3662s | play it and when they finally get to |
| 3663s | play something that is in their |
| 3665s | wheelhouse it's too late because the |
| 3667s | wheels have already fallen off it comes |
| 3668s | down to that last little fight there |
| 3670s | where the ant Matrix comes out Kindred |
| 3672s | wants to losos it but the perfectly |
| 3674s | placed wall from phone just shuts it |
| 3676s | down she can't back up she can't get |
| 3678s | away she can only sit there and tank all |
| 3681s | of the damage that comes her way and |
| 3683s | that health bar is only so beefy phone |
| 3687s | did wonders for this team what |
| 3689s | constantly hitting a bunch of these |
| 3690s | opening picks and being the Difference |
| 3692s | Maker but for me it's it's phone it's |
| 3694s | just phone yeah this DPS line from |
| 3697s | Vancouver's Titans blue I mean phone was |
| 3699s | just an excellent supported DPS as well |
| 3701s | when it comes up to the kill feed it's |
| 3703s | usually what that's named you see there |
| 3705s | but there is so much good support coming |
| 3707s | in from phone being able to slow things |
| 3709s | down and cat as well using the gtic flex |
| 3711s | to force the positionings into good |
| 3713s | places where it's so easy For What and |
| 3715s | phone to find those picks so Vancouver |
| 3717s | Titans blue with a 20 victory over |
| 3720s | drainers who are currently by the way |
| 3722s | third place in our circuit point |
| 3725s | standing so drainers this is a tough |
| 3727s | position for them to be and Vancouver |
| 3728s | Titans blue it could not be better I |
| 3731s | mean it could not be better and it's |
| 3733s | better than it seemingly has been for |
| 3734s | them for a very very long time you know |
| 3736s | they've placed either fifth or sixth in |
| 3738s | every major major or minor tournament up |
| 3740s | till this point so I mean this is a |
| 3742s | great performance from VT blue we talk |
| 3744s | about their their you know their |
| 3746s | Improvement this is where we're actually |
| 3748s | getting to see it we've actually got |
| 3749s | data to back it up now this very well |
| 3751s | might be their best performance and it's |
| 3753s | not done yet they still got a ways to go |
| 3756s | as for drainers though down to the lower |
| 3759s | bracket they go as for us though chat to |
| 3762s | a quick break we go we're gonna come |
| 3764s | back and break it all down for you on |
| 3765s | the other side of this don't go anywhere |
| 3767s | chat we'll see you in just a |
| 3773s | bit |

| 3949s | [Music] |
| 3956s | what's up everyone what a clean series |
| 3959s | coming out from Vancouver Titans blue |
| 3961s | that was absolutely insane some of the |
| 3963s | combinations that we saw going off paid |
| 3966s | off dividends there but we also got to |
| 3969s | throw it over to our Chipotle match MVP |
| 3973s | of the day and check out to see who |
| 3975s | that's going to be a little bit of a |
| 3977s | drum roll as we wait it's going to be |
| 3979s | phone and I believe we do have the |
| 3982s | opportunity to have an interview with |
| 3983s | them as well but CB before we hop into |
| 3986s | that I want you to talk a little bit |
| 3987s | about the impact that we saw from this |
| 3990s | player here within that last match up we |
| 3992s | saw some great ice walls going up uh to |
| 3995s | be able to just divy up the team Zone |
| 3998s | things out and isolate those fights I |
| 4000s | mean like in every sort of composition |
| 4002s | that VT blue are going to be playing |
| 4004s | against you know whether it's the ram |
| 4006s | Rush whether it is the doomfist dive |
| 4009s | it's going to be phone that's going to |
| 4010s | be the most important piece for this |
| 4012s | team because you're using the the made |
| 4014s | to either section off the Genji try and |
| 4016s | pressure pressure them out so there's no |
| 4018s | Genji to follow through with any of the |
| 4019s | doomfist slam damage or you're trying to |
| 4021s | set up those big ice walls so that your |
| 4022s | team can go aggressive on a on a |
| 4024s | sectioned off Target and when you when |
| 4026s | all else fails sometimes just throwing |
| 4028s | down a blizzard at the right moment |
| 4030s | catching the right people out is all you |
| 4032s | need to do and phone has gotten |
| 4033s | phenomenal at that has very much so |
| 4035s | stepped up to the level where you know |
| 4037s | you can trust phone to take care of |
| 4039s | business no matter what the job is yeah |
| 4042s | you absolutely love to hear and t i |
| 4044s | going have to get your thoughts on this |
| 4046s | player as well we saw incredible things |
| 4049s | C hyped them up a lot as well but I want |
| 4053s | to hear your set of things well I mean |
| 4056s | at the beginning of Antarctic Peninsula |
| 4058s | we were talking a little bit about |
| 4060s | trainers running the Reinhardt rush and |
| 4062s | how phone was a little bit of a Bastion |
| 4065s | one trick and was going to be able to |
| 4067s | take out the Bastion anytime that rinard |
| 4069s | came out but phone actually I lots of |
| 4071s | respect not sticking to their guns |
| 4074s | sticking to the may even into the |
| 4076s | Reinhardt composition and playing it |
| 4077s | incredibly well to the point where |
| 4079s | Kindred it felt like they were just |
| 4081s | being pressured out every single time |
| 4083s | even on the Reinhart if you look at the |
| 4085s | stats from Kings Row kred had died 12 |
| 4088s | times by the end of it and I think a lot |
| 4090s | of that had to do with the fact that her |
| 4092s | back was against the wall for a lot of |
| 4094s | it quite literally against that may |
| 4096s | wall quite literally but luckily it is a |
| 4099s | double elimination bracket right so for |
| 4101s | the side of drainers they're not out |
| 4103s | quite yet they have that opportunity to |
| 4104s | fight it out in lowers but we're going |
| 4106s | to phone in a friend and get a chance to |
| 4109s | actually talk to phone in just a second |
| 4112s | phone if you can hear me right now how |
| 4114s | are you doing um congratulations on this |
| 4118s | win thank you so much hello I am phone |
| 4120s | from BT blue uh I'm feeling gra to this |
| 4123s | win we our goal for this tournament like |
| 4127s | we're the fifth six curse Team every |
| 4129s | tournament we got like fifth six so |
| 4130s | we're just trying to get that top four |
| 4132s | that's our goal that's my goal at least |
| 4135s | well I mean this this matchup in and of |
| 4138s | itself means a lot to be able to break |
| 4141s | that curse for you guys as well right so |
| 4143s | did you what was the team sentiment I |
| 4145s | guess heading into this match up against |
| 4147s | trainers did you feel like there was a |
| 4149s | little bit of extra pressure on your |
| 4151s | shoulders knowing that you guys were |
| 4153s | reaching for the Stars yeah so we played |
| 4156s | drainers in Swiss I believe or a warmup |
| 4159s | or something so we knew they really want |
| 4161s | to play the the the ram comp they don't |
| 4163s | like playing Sig that much so it's just |
| 4165s | not uh Fable for them so we basically |
| 4168s | practiced all week like we even had some |
| 4170s | scrims like we had a day where we played |
| 4172s | against two really good Ram teams just |
| 4174s | playing Ram against us we went like 02 |
| 4176s | in maps but we learned a lot from it and |
| 4179s | uh we just hard practice against it and |
| 4181s | I think that we were able to execute |
| 4182s | when it came to game time and then it |
| 4185s | shows because they swapped off the The |
| 4187s | Ram to their comfort |
| 4189s | picks that's really awesome I think |
| 4191s | that's a big thing too is like you learn |
| 4193s | the most from your losses whether it's |
| 4195s | in scrims whether it's in officials as |
| 4197s | well that's the biggest opportunity to |
| 4200s | take away um information from those |
| 4202s | matches to be able to improve in that |
| 4204s | kind of sense and I just wanted to know |
| 4207s | as well like how do you feel about your |
| 4209s | growth as a team throughout this entire |
| 4212s | calling all Heroes season thus far |
| 4214s | because we have seen improvements since |
| 4217s | day one you guys have mid making that |
| 4218s | grind up and finally we're starting to |
| 4221s | see that paying off in actual kind |
| 4224s | numbers in results in that kind of |
| 4226s | sense yeah so um I feel like over the |
| 4230s | circuit we've definitely improved |
| 4231s | overall as a team we've got some new |
| 4233s | pickups they've been great additions to |
| 4234s | our team feeling in when they need to um |
| 4238s | like make like Nostalgia like our recent |
| 4239s | pickup of cat uh yeah they've been all |
| 4242s | doing great and I feel like as a team |
| 4244s | we've just been hard on the grindstone |
| 4246s | as Jay Venom would say and uh just tried |
| 4250s | to improve at any aspect we can I feel |
| 4253s | like it's showing off in our game |
| 4256s | you absolutely love to hear it and I |
| 4259s | also am curious kind of like who do you |
| 4261s | think is maybe the Dark Horse in this |
| 4264s | tournament right now you you can also |
| 4266s | say you guys you can say yourselves as a |
| 4269s | team if you want to like hype your |
| 4270s | homies up hype your team up in that kind |
| 4272s | of sense but curious on your thoughts on |
| 4274s | that as a |
| 4275s | player uh I think in this tournament oh |
| 4278s | that's actually interesting I got to |
| 4279s | think I think going in I think going in |
| 4282s | my Dark Horse was definitely to be fa |
| 4284s | um like I've I think that team is I |
| 4287s | think that team has potential to be |
| 4288s | really good especially with like snaza |
| 4290s | getting picked up um but if I had to say |
| 4293s | I think it's I think with us beinga |
| 4295s | drainers and beating in my mind going to |
| 4298s | theer what what was a top four team I |
| 4300s | think that we've become that dark that |
| 4302s | Dark |
| 4303s | Horse okay you'll love to hear it I I'm |
| 4305s | hoping to see you guys make that run |
| 4308s | this weekend um but I also want to give |
| 4311s | epitomes and CB a chance to ask their |
| 4314s | questions as well so tala why don't you |
| 4316s | head off first and then CB you can |
| 4318s | follow up afterwards well my question is |
| 4320s | really who are you really excited to |
| 4322s | face in this tournament because you guys |
| 4325s | have made it further are making it |
| 4327s | pretty far and is there somebody that |

| 4670s | welcome back everybody to calling all |
| 4672s | heroes major 3 we just saw an intense |
| 4675s | two and0 series there going over to the |
| 4678s | side of Vancouver Titans blue versus |
| 4680s | drainers but now we've got to head over |
| 4682s | towards those upper |
| 4684s | semifinals before we get on to that |
| 4687s | though I do want to give another shout |
| 4689s | out over towards Noble chairs and again |
| 4693s | you guys can win one of four gaming |
| 4695s | chairs from Noble chairs down in chat |

| 4703s | off if anyone is in the looks for |
| 4706s | something new to sit on while you game |
| 4709s | and grind over on OverWatch but now back |
| 4712s | to the game play so we're going to head |
| 4714s | over to that bracket to see how we got |
| 4716s | here so far how these other matches in |
| 4718s | the corner fals handed out off stream |
| 4722s | and CB how are you feeling about these |
| 4723s | results I mean two o's across the board |
| 4726s | I mean you might not have realistically |
| 4728s | expected that for the match that we had |
| 4729s | you know drers versus VC blue I think we |
| 4731s | probably thought that one would have |
| 4732s | been a little bit more close or maybe |
| 4733s | even gone in favor of drainers but hey |
| 4736s | in that one situation the lower seed two |
| 4738s | 's the top seed that's uh that's a |
| 4740s | little spicy right there but the rest of |
| 4741s | it seems kind of uh you know kind of |
| 4744s | expected I do want to give a shout out |
| 4746s | by the way to Fable you know VT blue |
| 4748s | phone we had uh we had them on the |
| 4749s | interview they mentioned Fable as a |
| 4751s | potential Dark Horse and I also have |
| 4753s | them pegged as one of the teams to watch |
| 4754s | but you know it's GNA have to be that |
| 4756s | lower bracket run that we've seen from |
| 4757s | Fable time and time again you know |
| 4760s | they're going to have to try and make |
| 4761s | that work once again if they want to try |
| 4763s | and get some of those points and again I |
| 4765s | I mentioned the race between them and VT |
| 4767s | blue this puts VT blue in such a great |
| 4769s | position right |
| 4770s | now yeah it really does and tala was |
| 4774s | this what you were expecting as far as |
| 4776s | these results go I know that again it |
| 4778s | was the last match up that we saw on |
| 4780s | stream was one we were anticipating to |
| 4782s | maybe go that distance it was only a |
| 4784s | best of three series of course so not as |
| 4787s | intense is the best of fives that we're |
| 4788s | heading |
| 4789s | into yeah well I mean I think basically |
| 4791s | what you would expect in most of of |
| 4793s | these brackets is the upper seed taking |
| 4796s | that 2 maybe not a 2 but even a 2-1 and |
| 4799s | winning it out so the Vancouver Titans |
| 4801s | blue they actually kind of upset |
| 4804s | drainers in this matchup and going ahead |
| 4806s | to face Michael wave which drainers had |
| 4809s | previously lost to anyway so the |
| 4811s | drainers Michael wave rematch in the |
| 4813s | potential in the semi-finals was there |
| 4816s | and drainers now dropping down to the |
| 4817s | lower bracket instead to face EP K so I |
| 4821s | think this is definitely not not what I |
| 4823s | expected but it is very welcomed now |
| 4826s | we're headed into the Timeless ethereal |
| 4827s | versus nyxl Embers matchup and I think |
| 4830s | this is going to be a big yeah it's |
| 4832s | going to be really exciting to see these |
| 4834s | upper semi-finals coming through here |
| 4836s | and we also have a chance to introduce |
| 4838s | these teams as well so heading over to |
| 4841s | the first roster that we're going to be |
| 4843s | seeing here for the upper semi-finals |
| 4845s | between nyxl Embers and Timeless is the |
| 4850s | Embers Squad CB I know that they don't |
| 4854s | need any further introduction some may |
| 4856s | remember that part of this squad was |
| 4859s | previously the group of missing it at |
| 4863s | the top of my head right now Valiant |
| 4865s | Guardians yes there we go there's so |
| 4867s | many names to think of but that team it |
| 4870s | was a scary one when they were a full |
| 4873s | Squad and now with the support of an |
| 4875s | organization yeah I mean and you know |
| 4877s | they were the runner UPS in the previous |
| 4878s | minor tournament now going to this major |
| 4880s | tournament they've picked up anun and I |
| 4882s | think that's a huge pickup alone she's a |
| 4884s | phenomenal Flex support player one of |
| 4886s | the best marginalized gender Flex |
| 4887s | support players in the entire world |
| 4890s | that's a coup for them to be able to |
| 4891s | pick up on you and there so taking an |
| 4893s | already strong roster and adding that to |
| 4896s | it means that this is definitely one of |
| 4898s | the other teams to watch you know them |
| 4899s | Fable those were two that I kind of had |
| 4902s | my eye on to make some noise now it's |
| 4904s | time to start you know banging those |
| 4906s | drums making that noise now you you know |
| 4908s | you got past the first round where you |
| 4909s | were expected to win now you're going up |
| 4911s | against somebody a little bit more |
| 4915s | scary yeah it's going to be pretty |
| 4917s | terrifying the beasts in Timeless |
| 4919s | ethereal everybody knows this squad this |
| 4923s | doesn't look so scary okay no it's just |
| 4926s | I know pretty friendly actually are you |
| 4928s | sure about that because a full Lucio |
| 4930s | Squad boops off the map Galore I don't |
| 4934s | know skirting around you all the |
| 4937s | time the question is does the speed |
| 4940s | boost stack if you have go |
| 4943s | Squad the question that we never thought |
| 4946s | we would have to ask un until fa with |
| 4948s | the Timeless ethereal roster sheet but |
| 4951s | Timeless ethereal they are a terrifying |
| 4953s | Team all of them are incredibly powerful |
| 4956s | in their own fright and then coming |
| 4958s | together they've had a huge win streak |
| 4960s | but CB last week we actually saw it |
| 4962s | being broken by Michael wave so Timeless |
| 4965s | ethereal might not be in as good of as a |
| 4967s | position as they thought they were |
| 4969s | coming into it since they were so |
| 4970s | dominant for so many maps in a row well |
| 4973s | we didn't actually see the record gets |
| 4975s | get because it wasn't it wasn't on the |
| 4977s | stream unfortunately I would have loved |
| 4979s | to see that I'm a little disappointed I |
| 4981s | mean the match we got to see instead was |
| 4982s | still a banger and I'm still glad we got |
| 4984s | to see that one but it would have been |
| 4985s | really big to get to see that 29 map win |
| 4989s | streak that Timeless atheria were |
| 4991s | boasting coming into this Tournament |
| 4992s | being snapped in half by Michael wave 20 |
| 4995s | by the way they kind of you know Michael |
| 4997s | wave kind of just ran away with that one |
| 4999s | and it didn't I I didn't get to see the |
| 5001s | codes because unfortunately we went to a |
| 5002s | new patch I really really wanted to try |
| 5004s | and contact the players get the replay |
| 5006s | codes for that one it just wasn't in the |
| 5008s | cards but I mean you know if you're |
| 5010s | Timeless atherial and you lose a win |
| 5012s | streak like that you're probably pretty |
| 5014s | pissed about it right like you want to |
| 5015s | come back yeah well when we're looking |
| 5018s | at what's going on now at the very least |
| 5020s | we got to get this series straight on |
| 5022s | into it here on control we're going to |
| 5024s | be heading over towards Samoa first |
| 5026s | without further Ado CB all take it |
| 5029s | away last time we saw Samoa from |
| 5032s | timeless ethereal we actually saw it |
| 5034s | against Vancouver Titans blue the team |
| 5036s | that was just on stream and it was a |
| 5039s | little silly they they were emoting in |
| 5042s | Vancouver Titans blue spawn they were |
| 5044s | definitely you could definitely tell |
| 5046s | that they had practiced it a lot even |
| 5048s | the roll outs right down to how quickly |
| 5050s | they were getting to the point it seemed |
| 5052s | like they were getting there somehow |
| 5053s | quicker than Vancouver Titans blue words |
| 5055s | so this is definitely a good map for |
| 5057s | Timeless ethereal I think I I think you |
| 5060s | could definitely say it's a good map for |
| 5061s | Timeless ethereal I also o do want to |
| 5063s | highlight that this is a good map for a |
| 5065s | lot of that ratra Rush that I've uh that |
| 5067s | I've alluded to we saw little glimpses |
| 5069s | of it being played not to great effect |
| 5071s | by drainers but you know this is also |
| 5073s | one of the maps where I've seen a lot of |
| 5075s | it coming out in both scrims and in the |
| 5077s | Korean flash Ops scene so it's |
| 5079s | definitely something that these teams |
| 5081s | can fall back on but you know barring |
| 5083s | that doomfist is also a great pick here |
| 5086s | Sigma will never not be a good pick in |
| 5089s | the current sandbox which by the way |
| 5090s | we're playing on opr previous patch so |
| 5093s | no malga no tank changes no trying to |
| 5095s | figure out what the meta is we still |
| 5097s | have that same idea you know we still |
| 5099s | have that previous preseason 8 patch but |
| 5101s | there's still so many options so many |
| 5103s | different ways that it could go and I'm |
| 5105s | also glad to see what moving fish is |
| 5107s | hovering over right now because I've |
| 5109s | even seen a little bit of monkey |
| 5110s | business here and |
| 5112s | there yeah and the monkey usually does |
| 5114s | come out as a sort of counter to the |
| 5117s | doomfist being able to protect the |
| 5119s | supports with the bubble but this going |
| 5121s | to be interesting if they stick on to it |
| 5123s | right off the bat going against the |
| 5125s | sigma it might be a little bit tough |
| 5127s | right at the beginning here we're |
| 5129s | kicking things off on down town here on |
| 5131s | Samoa I'm expecting to see ESS etheral |
| 5134s | on the sigma comp try and take that |
| 5135s | upper route there where is moving fish |
| 5138s | going to go for the dive actually no |
| 5139s | scratch that it looks like uh ESS theal |
| 5142s | going to split up just a little bit play |
| 5143s | a little bit more for the low ground and |
| 5145s | even try and get some of that Higher |
| 5146s | Ground on the southern side of the |
| 5149s | map with a very strong soj player very |
| 5153s | strong hit scan player and keeping on |
| 5155s | the low ground kind of contesting the |
| 5156s | point the dive kind of goes through from |
| 5158s | moving fish but not fully committed just |
| 5160s | yet they're just splitting this point |
| 5162s | right in |
| 5163s | half moving fish is in moving fish is |
| 5165s | out they're not able to stick around for |
| 5167s | all that long ESS with going to get |
| 5169s | first cap here but a big nade comes out |
| 5171s | from anun moving fish should be able to |
| 5173s | jump in on that maybe try and get Halo |
| 5175s | but oh they're |
| 5176s | working yep Halo is able to stay alive |
| 5179s | jumping back down onto the point to |
| 5181s | contest just a little bit h is looking |
| 5183s | for something on the par it's just this |
| 5186s | okay never mind X10 drops down and |
| 5188s | sniper immediately takes them down now |
| 5190s | HQ trying to find a way in nope just |
| 5194s | going to be accretion now a huge nade |
| 5197s | from nyxl Embers any though |
| 5200s | unfortunately doesn't find anything that |
| 5202s | that feels like a lot of Wast of time |
| 5203s | from nyxl Embers and they're still kind |
| 5205s | of wasting it you know waiting for xtend |
| 5207s | to try and get back in position here but |
| 5208s | it feels like moving fish is just |
| 5209s | dipping their toe in the water and |
| 5210s | jumping right back out but now the n on |
| 5213s | board can try and go for a full dive |
| 5215s | here yeah just going to go ahead try and |
| 5218s | zone out whis oh that's a lot of damage |
| 5220s | coming down right at once though tank |
| 5222s | now missing for nyxl Embers Timeless |
| 5225s | serial still holding on to that point |
| 5227s | and unable to pressure out whisp |
| 5230s | and Timeless ethereal they're already |
| 5232s | halfway home here grai Lu's going to |
| 5234s | come out the Sleep Dart was good to try |
| 5236s | and go for it but it whiffs just a |
| 5237s | little bit and I mean nyxl Embers the |
| 5240s | longer they fight this without getting |
| 5241s | any sort of comptitive Advantage |
| 5243s | especially if buns get to hit a 2K like |
| 5245s | that a beautiful pulse bomb like Embers |
| 5248s | have to get out they can't stay in here |
| 5250s | any longer Timeless ethereal have won |
| 5251s | this fight 70% we're already almost in |
| 5254s | one fight territory here it's spawn time |
| 5258s | for Timeless ethereal they're going to |
| 5260s | push them a little bit further back into |
| 5261s | a further choke point and now it seems |
| 5263s | like two fights in a row that need to be |
| 5265s | one HQ trying to build up to the blade |
| 5268s | as quick as possible and otherwise they |
| 5271s | have three ultimates now on the board |
| 5272s | for NYL Embers they could potentially |
| 5274s | stack for the point capture and an kind |
| 5277s | of getting pressured by this n uh by |
| 5280s | this disruptor shot but otherwise now |
| 5283s | with the Primal Rage to come through |
| 5284s | from moving fish looking to pressure out |
| 5286s | the back line Halo going down from xt0 |
| 5288s | that's a nice shot to try and get things |
| 5290s | started and now the rally from for you |
| 5292s | to force through the choke point moving |
| 5294s | fish however is going to dive onto that |
| 5297s | back line while followed up by H key now |
| 5300s | Z going down they have nowhere left to |
| 5303s | go they are able to capture that point |
| 5305s | 99% though they need to play this |
| 5307s | perfectly I they've at least got their |
| 5309s | feet underneath them which is good |
| 5310s | they're going to have the Bob and the |
| 5312s | blade as well if they wait a little bit |
| 5313s | anun will have that Nano you can go for |
| 5315s | the nanoade there and that should be a |
| 5317s | one fight or a forced sound barrier from |
| 5319s | Timeless ethereal I mean hell with the |
| 5321s | damage that nanoblade does it might even |
| 5323s | be both nyxl Embers the ball is in their |
| 5325s | Court they cannot fumble |
| 5328s | it now using that Nano onto moving fish |
| 5332s | instead setad up onto the blade kind of |
| 5334s | trying to hold on to the DPS ultimate |
| 5336s | from HT and it's at least pressuring out |
| 5339s | with the help of the immortality field |
| 5340s | cool down now being used bun very close |
| 5343s | to the pulse bomb trying to fish for it |
| 5345s | onto H ke here over on The High Ground |
| 5347s | or look for a big one onto that backline |
| 5349s | but the Bob comes through from X10 to |
| 5351s | contest on the point HQ is still holding |
| 5354s | on to that blade though they didn't |
| 5355s | combo that with a nano they did manage |
| 5357s | to buy themselves a bit of time with the |
| 5358s | Nano on moving fish but with a pulse |
| 5360s | bomb onto moving fish time may have just |
| 5362s | run out yeah now they have to use that |
| 5365s | blade but the sound barrier comes |
| 5367s | through and it's really difficult for |
| 5368s | them to get any damage with that |
| 5370s | ultimate on board still has to try and |
| 5372s | contest they are 64% to the 99 but it |
| 5375s | flips over onto Timeless ethereal they |
| 5377s | need to activate the overtime and are |
| 5379s | able to with the help of HQ but hqy goes |
| 5381s | down now moving fish comes in a second |
| 5383s | too late with the bubble and it's just |
| 5385s | going to be pressured out now it's up to |
| 5387s | pour you but they are going to get |
| 5389s | shredded and the nyxl Embers they are |
| 5392s | losing the first map I I I think there's |
| 5395s | a couple of misplays that come out there |
| 5397s | I I don't really agree with using the |
| 5399s | Nano onto the Winston there I mean all |
| 5401s | it really does is buy them a bit of |
| 5402s | space forces some coold Downs out but |
| 5405s | then you don't follow that up with a |
| 5406s | dragon blade you don't follow that up |
| 5408s | with much of anything else you use the |
| 5409s | Bob a little bit later and it very much |
| 5411s | so feels like nyxl Embers are just |
| 5413s | trying to stagger out so that they get |
| 5415s | themselves into that one fight territory |
| 5417s | you know make the fight last as long as |
| 5418s | possible but you have to close it out |
| 5420s | and you sacrifice ability that you have |
| 5423s | that has the ability to close it out |
| 5425s | especially going up against Halo's sound |
| 5427s | barrier if you can't take that off the |
| 5429s | field and get some value for it it's |
| 5432s | it's a lost fight there's just no way |
| 5433s | that you can possibly overcome Timeless |
| 5434s | ethereal so nyxl Embers as we move on to |
| 5437s | volcano the Winston is not going to come |
| 5439s | out again I like that I like that we're |
| 5441s | going to something a little bit more |
| 5442s | brawl heavy X10 still on the ash though |
| 5445s | I'm curious as to whether or not this |
| 5446s | ash is going to be able to find any good |
| 5448s | angles yeah I'm wondering what the ash |
| 5450s | play is maybe for the B B here right at |
| 5453s | the end but are contesting wh is just |
| 5456s | going to be really difficult because of |
| 5458s | the consistent damage that sojan can put |
| 5460s | out and there is a display of the |
| 5462s | consistent damage HQ immediately falling |
| 5464s | despite using the ice block despite the |
| 5466s | cool Downs being forced out they're able |
| 5468s | to take out the immortality field on |
| 5470s | nyxl ember's side and Timeless ethereal |
| 5473s | they are running through this scam th |
| 5475s | this again like I was saying looks like |
| 5476s | an angry Timeless ethereal they are mad |
| 5478s | about that winning streak being snapped |
| 5480s | in half they want to start another one |
| 5482s | with is hitting all the shots never mind |
| 5484s | H is going to go ahead and hit one on |
| 5486s | the but it's still fine it's still fine |
| 5488s | ESS ethereal get the first cap soj |
| 5490s | should get back relatively quickly |
| 5491s | especially with the Halo taxi service |
| 5494s | coming in Johnny on the spot to get you |
| 5495s | right back where you need to be but |
| 5497s | meanwhile the fight has kicked off on |
| 5498s | the point well it seems like they're |
| 5501s | just going to give this one away they've |
| 5502s | gotten uh 14% not quite a bit but |
| 5505s | without the help of a secondary support |
| 5507s | never mind whsp come back with the help |
| 5510s | of the Halo taxi service and immediate |
| 5512s | Ely just going to dome pour you now |
| 5514s | missing a support on the side of nyxl |
| 5516s | Embers looking to try and sustain |
| 5518s | through all of it but sniper and Bun are |
| 5521s | just going to shred through moving |
| 5522s | fish's Health back to the spawn hold for |
| 5525s | Timeless ethereal all right whis keep |
| 5527s | your head down while I say this this is |
| 5528s | an angry Timeless ethereal that are very |
| 5531s | upset about losing their uh their |
| 5532s | winning streak there and they're trying |
| 5533s | to start another one here and with the |
| 5535s | old bank that they built right now going |
| 5537s | to kick things off the gravitic flux |
| 5538s | they are primed to do it HQ just cannot |
| 5540s | stay alive yeah H is just getting |
| 5543s | shredded Time and Time Again by all of |
| 5545s | these ultimates all the damage that |
| 5547s | comes through I mean while you're up in |
| 5548s | the air what are you going to do as Wisp |
| 5551s | and Bun are spamming those right clicks |
| 5553s | icicles up into the air and now both of |
| 5555s | the DPS ultimates are available Halo |
| 5557s | very close to the sound barrier but for |
| 5559s | you is keeping Pace with the sound |
| 5561s | barrier of their own they have built up |
| 5563s | quite an ALT Bank on nyxl Ember side and |
| 5566s | they should be able to flip the point |
| 5568s | with it it's only up to 60% so already |
| 5570s | this sub map is looking a little B bit |
| 5572s | closer and they look more organized and |
| 5575s | Matrix is going to come out early the |
| 5576s | blizzard comes out from |
| 5578s | hqy blizzard looking to get a little bit |
| 5581s | of damage down it's actually anun that |
| 5583s | goes down though with the amp Matrix |
| 5585s | going through early as well nyxl Embers |
| 5588s | using the gravitic flux and looking to |
| 5590s | pressure out Z amp Matrix almost coming |
| 5592s | through and un and using the sound |
| 5595s | barrier as well to keep them alive |
| 5596s | they're forcing themselves through the |
| 5597s | choke point and now pressuring them back |
| 5600s | Halo didn't get the chance to use sound |
| 5602s | to save Z either so now Timeless with |
| 5604s | theal they do lose that point while nyxl |
| 5607s | Ember whip it over I mean they do still |
| 5609s | have get the chance to hold on to that |
| 5611s | sound barrier though and I think that's |
| 5612s | very important because the only ult on |
| 5613s | the side of nyxl Embers is that |
| 5615s | overclock they had to use everything |
| 5616s | else drain the entire drain the coppers |
| 5619s | dry early ice block for out from HQ as |
| 5621s | well that's going to get punished they |
| 5622s | put the wall up and whsp going to go in |
| 5624s | with that early overclock nyxl Embers |
| 5626s | have to try and vacate that's a good |
| 5628s | angle from whisp now the immortality |
| 5630s | field to try and save the soour and does |
| 5633s | so immortality field from anun isn't |
| 5635s | going to be able to save moving fishes |
| 5637s | the damage keeps coming through a little |
| 5638s | bit of shields from the sigma however |
| 5640s | X10 coming in from the back angle after |
| 5643s | the overlock Runs Out is just |
| 5644s | immediately punished for it now looking |
| 5647s | to take these supports off the map it's |
| 5649s | good Boop and anion goes down now okay a |
| 5653s | second one yep let's go Halo finding two |
| 5656s | in a row with the boops off of the map I |
| 5661s | I mean we're not sponsored by ziplock |
| 5662s | but this does feel like it's all but |
| 5664s | sealed up in a nice tight plastic bag |
| 5665s | for Timeless ethereal they're going for |
| 5666s | the spawn hold the gravitic flux the an |
| 5668s | Matrix comes out is anyone even going to |
| 5670s | be able to touch on the side of nyxl |
| 5672s | Amber moving fish swaps over to the |
| 5673s | doomfist just to try and get a touch but |
| 5675s | it feels like a token gesture at this |
| 5677s | point yeah doomfist definitely is a |
| 5680s | little bit slippery able to dance around |
| 5682s | their defenses and get onto that point |
| 5684s | but moving fish where is the backup |
| 5686s | where's the healing Halo immediately |
| 5688s | takes down that doomfish shredding |
| 5689s | through the health and now they need to |
| 5691s | find some way through H key onto the |
| 5692s | Tracer activating that overtime should |
| 5694s | still be able to get another touch but |
| 5696s | no it's that mayw well to block off any |
| 5699s | other entrance point and guarding all |
| 5701s | Sites with the |
| 5703s | DPS Timeless ethereal they take that |
| 5705s | first am and I mean like we look at the |
| 5707s | previous Series right when we talk about |
| 5709s | how important phone was on the may may |
| 5712s | is just as important especially in this |
| 5714s | Sigma mirror and you're going up against |
| 5716s | one of the best ma in the business that |
| 5718s | being bun she is second to none when it |
| 5720s | comes to this hero and HQ has no slouch |
| 5722s | but you can even see you know a lot of |
| 5724s | times where ice blocks being forced |
| 5725s | earlier H he's out of position and a |
| 5727s | wall goes up behind and it's like |
| 5729s | suddenly you know you're losing the may |
| 5731s | head to head that means you're losing |
| 5732s | the ability to control space you're |
| 5734s | losing the ability to isolate your enemy |
| 5736s | you're losing the whole map it's just |
| 5738s | kind of slipping away I do kind of like |
| 5740s | this Winston look from nyxl Embers cuz I |
| 5743s | think that the Winston is kind of a |
| 5744s | sleeper pick right now and if more teams |
| 5746s | try to catch onto this wave I think it |
| 5748s | has a lot of potential but nyxl Embers |
| 5750s | are not making it look like it's living |
| 5752s | up to their potential it's a little |
| 5753s | discordant it's not going in |
| 5755s | collectively as a dive the way that we |
| 5757s | really wanted to it's not succeeding at |
| 5759s | sectioning off the enemy uh the enemy |
| 5761s | supports and trying to pressure down the |
| 5763s | enemy tanks in the way that you really |
| 5765s | really wanted to the reason that you |
| 5767s | that you play Winston in the current |
| 5769s | sandbox yeah I mean we were talking |
| 5771s | about anun as well when we were looking |
| 5773s | at the roster for nyxl Embers and you |
| 5775s | were saying that she's one of the best |
| 5776s | Le supports here and I feel like the |
| 5778s | Winston dive really follows up onto the |
| 5781s | biotic n but we weren't seeing a lot of |
| 5782s | those being landed or followed up on and |
| 5785s | you were also talking a little bit about |
| 5786s | the uh the Nano boost also going onto |
| 5789s | the Winston rather than onto the blade |
| 5791s | so it was buying time rather than |
| 5793s | playing really aggressive and I think |
| 5794s | nyxl Embers maybe they're just missing a |
| 5796s | little bit of that aggression that |
| 5798s | Timeless ethereal seems to have |
| 5799s | throughout and it is just so consistent |
| 5802s | with every single play that they make |
| 5804s | they're always aggressive they're always |
| 5805s | hungry and searching for more picks it's |
| 5808s | kind of this thing right like I'm glad |
| 5809s | you bring up aggression because that's |
| 5811s | kind of what it it needs to be right |
| 5812s | yeah sure when you're playing when |
| 5813s | you're holding the point and you have a |
| 5815s | dive you're waiting for the enemy team |
| 5816s | to step into your trap and spring it but |
| 5818s | you have to be the one to actually pull |
| 5820s | the lever and spring it at the right |
| 5821s | moments and it feels like that's just |
| 5824s | not what nyxl Embers did they just kind |
| 5826s | of like let times atherial walk up they |
| 5828s | go to try and spring the Trap but it's |
| 5830s | not one that is actually going to like |
| 5832s | seal shut it's not one that's going to |
| 5834s | end up giving them the victory it's just |
| 5836s | that Nano boost onto the Winston it it |
| 5838s | only realistically buys time but you |
| 5840s | have to do something with that time and |
| 5842s | they just they were not able to they |
| 5844s | they weren't able to and then again we |
| 5845s | go back over to volcano where it's a lot |
| 5847s | more confined it's a lot more may |
| 5850s | Centric you're trying to get as much |
| 5851s | value out of the may as you possibly can |
| 5853s | well you know again bun is just like the |
| 5856s | best in the biz when it comes to that |
| 5857s | hero right like no I don't think there's |
| 5860s | anybody in calling all heroes that can |
| 5861s | touch bun on the May except for you know |
| 5864s | maybe phone and maybe hkey but hkey is |
| 5867s | not showing it right now yeah I mean |
| 5869s | hkey it felt like there was a lot of |
| 5871s | pressure being put onto them right at |
| 5873s | the very beginning and it also just |
| 5875s | seemed like they were being shredded a |
| 5876s | lot with the ice block being forced out |
| 5878s | early just so much focus and usually you |
| 5880s | see that Focus going to the backline but |
| 5883s | those immortality fields that were |
| 5885s | coming out it didn't seem like the most |
| 5886s | important cooldown that was being used |
| 5888s | it was really just trying to force out |
| 5890s | the may make sure the blizzard can't |
| 5892s | section off especially on these very |
| 5894s | closed points and that those May walls |
| 5897s | just allowing them to block off all the |
| 5899s | entrances you even saw it at the very |
| 5901s | end where the tracer was beinging taken |
| 5902s | out but she didn't have a way into the |
| 5905s | point because there was just there was |
| 5907s | just the May on one side and the May |
| 5909s | wall on another side and the Wisp was on |
| 5910s | the other side and then what are you |
| 5911s | supposed to |
| 5912s | do well uh what are you supposed to do |
| 5916s | is definitely the question I'm asking as |
| 5918s | nyxl Embers have opted to take us to |
| 5920s | Midtown and I suppose when the when the |
| 5922s | map Pool is literally just Kings Row and |
| 5924s | Midtown you know Midtown is a little bit |
| 5926s | more dive Centric especially on that |
| 5928s | second Point streets phase there but it |
| 5930s | still is a very heavily Sigma favored |
| 5932s | map and in that Sigma head-to-head if |
| 5935s | your May isn't getting as much value as |
| 5937s | the other may it just doesn't feel like |
| 5938s | you're ever realistically going to have |
| 5940s | a way in so what is nyxl ember's plan |
| 5943s | are they going to fall back onto that |
| 5945s | dive and if they're going to do that are |
| 5946s | they going to be able to execute it |
| 5947s | properly cuz if not this very well could |
| 5950s | just be timeless ethereal running away |
| 5952s | with this |
| 5953s | one yeah I mean it's all about that |
| 5956s | execution I think the ideas are there |
| 5958s | but it's like what is the intention |
| 5960s | behind making the play why are you |
| 5962s | putting the Nano onto the Winston what |
| 5964s | are you trying to do with this and it |
| 5966s | just wasn't quite up to the bar in that |
| 5969s | last map of Samoa now onto Midtown it is |
| 5972s | technically nyxl ember's pick so |
| 5974s | hopefully they know exactly what they're |
| 5976s | trying to |
| 5977s | ex I'm curious to see where whether we |
| 5980s | start on attack or defense but I would |
| 5982s | like to see a defensive dive from nyxl |
| 5984s | Embers and in that situation it would |
| 5986s | very much be coming down to whether or |
| 5988s | not they're able to protect Anu and keep |
| 5989s | her set up to hit some of those big |
| 5991s | biion Ates and then go in with the |
| 5993s | followup but again even then it does |
| 5994s | come down to ult rotation a lot of the a |
| 5996s | lot of the times especially once those |
| 5998s | all those check marks start to build up |
| 6000s | at the top of the screen and you know |
| 6001s | something's coming the sigma composition |
| 6003s | has a lot of big heavy hitting ults as |
| 6005s | well you know the blizzard the gravitic |
| 6006s | flux you got to be able to take the |
| 6008s | initiative and force those ultimates out |
| 6010s | at suboptimal times not let uh Timeless |
| 6013s | ethereal just run away with it play |
| 6014s | their game if it's your map pick and |
| 6016s | you're going with Midtown that's the way |
| 6018s | that I want to see it or if you're going |
| 6020s | to go with that mirror it has to be a |
| 6022s | lot more clean it has to be a lot better |
| 6024s | you can't have your your maze cool Downs |
| 6026s | getting forced early here so I I think |
| 6029s | oh seeing what it is that nyxl Embers |
| 6031s | come up here with compositionally is |
| 6033s | going to dictate a lot of this and I |
| 6035s | also want to pay special attention to |
| 6037s | that second point that street phace if |
| 6039s | either of these teams do opt for a dive |
| 6042s | comp if they can make it there because |
| 6045s | sometimes we get that far yeah sometimes |
| 6047s | Midtown can be really difficult on that |
| 6049s | first point if you're not able able to |
| 6051s | get through the top because it's just |
| 6053s | such a narrow and small choke point that |
| 6055s | if you're having icicles spammed at you |
| 6057s | the entire time you have that soj just |
| 6059s | spamming with the rail gun it's really |
| 6062s | difficult to get through and you will |
| 6063s | find you have to disengage a lot |
| 6067s | ready sorry I was still chewing on some |
| 6069s | Chipotle there give me one sec oh no I I |
| 6072s | have been eating my Chipotle this entire |
| 6074s | time weird I was saying I didn't e |
| 6077s | breakfast it's been sitting in front of |
| 6078s | me here all day I only have like 3 |
| 6080s | minutes at the time when we cut break to |
| 6081s | try and scarf this down I was hoping |
| 6083s | you'd carry that a little bit longer but |
| 6084s | it's good I've swallowed I've moved on |
| 6086s | we're good I can start talking about |
| 6088s | this nyxl Ember is going to be opening |
| 6090s | up on attack and it looks like they're |
| 6091s | flashing that dive composition versus a |
| 6093s | sigma May comp on the side of Timeless |
| 6095s | ethereal my question though is where are |
| 6098s | you going to be diving what is your |
| 6099s | target going to be is anion going to be |
| 6102s | able to hit any big nades from this |
| 6103s | angle and again X10 on the ash I like |
| 6106s | the ash pick I like how much of the ash |
| 6108s | we've been seeing lately but are you |
| 6110s | going to be able to find any angles as |
| 6112s | an attacking team with this hero pick |
| 6115s | yeah immediately this is such aggression |
| 6117s | fromal already right they're already |
| 6119s | building up the ultimate fun is up to |
| 6121s | 13% onto the blizzard and they know |
| 6124s | exactly what they're doing when they're |
| 6125s | going for these close holds very early |
| 6127s | HQ now forcing through the choke though |
| 6130s | looking to try and pressure out sniper |
| 6132s | just a little bit instead of going for |
| 6133s | that flank angle over top which I think |
| 6135s | we see a lot of Genji do but whisp |
| 6137s | opening things up on to X10 yeah and |
| 6139s | like I said X10 trying to find angle on |
| 6141s | the ash if you want to try and get your |
| 6143s | Ash into position she has to go through |
| 6145s | like that Alleyway on the side maybe go |
| 6147s | through the laat kind of area over on |
| 6149s | the you know the left hand side from an |
| 6150s | attacker and that's a very narrow choke |
| 6152s | where whsp can just put in all of this |
| 6154s | damage with the right clicks and then |
| 6155s | hit the big rail shots when it comes |
| 6156s | time and again I don't know if you're |
| 6159s | ever going to be able to get this ash |
| 6160s | set up especially not if she's dying in |
| 6162s | the spawn sniper almost claims that life |
| 6165s | x 10 able to hang on but I mean that's |
| 6167s | you know that's a token fight that's all |
| 6169s | for |
| 6169s | not yeah and and it's also just for the |
| 6172s | alt charge as well looking at the pacing |
| 6174s | of how quickly they're building up these |
| 6176s | ultimates I mean z it's at Matrix is |
| 6178s | kind of just a little bit of throwaway |
| 6180s | ultimate you can build that up really |
| 6181s | quickly anyway but still the fact that |
| 6184s | they already have it ready and it's only |
| 6186s | been a minute there's HQ dead early a |
| 6189s | nice May wall and then you sniper is |
| 6191s | there with the follow-up damage so you |
| 6193s | know the the push already dead before it |
| 6195s | even Begins for nyxl Embers cuz you |
| 6197s | could send moving fish in sure but then |
| 6198s | who's going to be there with them to try |
| 6200s | and follow up on the damage |
| 6204s | well they're trying to land these biotic |
| 6206s | nades but it doesn't seem like they are |
| 6208s | quite getting anywhere like the angles |
| 6210s | you said it is so difficult to land a |
| 6213s | nade when it's just the entire choke |
| 6215s | point is this little underpass and you |
| 6217s | can't really go up over top or anything |
| 6219s | you kind of just have to and sniper's |
| 6220s | doing a great job of blocking them by |
| 6221s | the way as well yeah exactly and now the |
| 6225s | blizzard already coming through from bun |
| 6226s | going to freeze moving fish shred |
| 6229s | it oh wow the Nano comes through from |
| 6232s | Anan and moving fish she yet spread |
| 6234s | through it so now the Bob comes through |
| 6236s | it's really important ultimate in this |
| 6238s | six V5 kind of fashion but exent just |
| 6242s | takes gets taken down or the Bob does by |
| 6245s | wisp with the help of the M Matrix so |
| 6247s | they are just doing such a good job in |
| 6249s | this defensive h i mean but there was a |
| 6252s | pickoff there onto sniper Midway through |
| 6253s | sniper should be back with the gravitic |
| 6254s | flux here soon but I mean this is where |
| 6256s | nyxl Embers because of that pick off |
| 6258s | feel like they have to invest and |
| 6259s | they're going to go ahead and pop the |
| 6260s | old to try and make it happen but the |
| 6261s | response is there the overclock does |
| 6264s | come through from Wiis and you taken |
| 6266s | down bun that is huge pick moving fish |
| 6268s | Now using the Primal Rage to buy a |
| 6269s | little bit of time here it seems like |
| 6271s | the recontest comes through but it was |
| 6272s | disjointed sniper came in just a second |
| 6275s | too late not enough Mobility on that |
| 6277s | Sigma to get to the point fast enough so |
| 6279s | that was an excellent pick a little bit |
| 6280s | disorganized and a lot of ALS were |
| 6282s | cycled through but n nyxl m should get |
| 6285s | the cap yeah it it's very very sloppy |
| 6287s | and if not for that mid-fight kill onto |
| 6289s | sniper it would not have happen happened |
| 6291s | at all it was very Scrappy Time was |
| 6293s | ethereal had all the tools that they |
| 6294s | could have used to try and retake that |
| 6295s | the you know the overclock in the an |
| 6297s | Matrix did end up paying dividends but |
| 6299s | you know nyxl Embers with the spawn |
| 6300s | Advantage were able to get back in there |
| 6302s | as quick as they could end up getting |
| 6304s | the cap here but they have to try and |
| 6305s | snowball it and take this High Ground an |
| 6307s | early pick up onto bun is a great start |
| 6310s | yeah that is a really good start they |
| 6312s | had the anti onto sniper weren't able to |
| 6315s | quite finish it off but they are |
| 6316s | building up these ultimates very |
| 6317s | steadily they have the Nano once again |
| 6319s | they also have that blade so I'm |
| 6321s | wondering if they do go for the |
| 6322s | nanoblade this time around but instead |
| 6325s | it's just nyxl Embers they are wreaking |
| 6327s | havoc on the other side on the backline |
| 6329s | now Z and whis staggered from the rest |
| 6331s | of the team I I I think you do go for |
| 6333s | the nanoade here because Halo does not |
| 6335s | have the sound barrier it's a guaranteed |
| 6336s | fight win if you get even one kill with |
| 6338s | that ult combo I think you just go |
| 6339s | aggressive and let it rip I also kind of |
| 6341s | think this is like where everyone's |
| 6343s | positioned right now is a good |
| 6344s | opportunity for moving fish to try and |
| 6346s | section off sniper and maybe Focus down |
| 6347s | the enemy |
| 6349s | Sigma we see that amp Matrix coming |
| 6352s | through and H key goes over the top |
| 6353s | immediately takes down Halo Z goes down |
| 6356s | no support no back line and whisp should |
| 6359s | go down very quickly as well nyxl Embers |
| 6362s | guaranteeing themselves The Fight Win |
| 6363s | with those two ultimates and Timeless |
| 6365s | ethereal also expending the amp Matrix |
| 6368s | to get nothing in the last fight now |
| 6371s | that's that's dive 101 from nyxl Embers |
| 6373s | you send moving fish in bait out some |
| 6374s | cool downs and then suddenly you go in |
| 6376s | with the nanoade and there is nothing |
| 6377s | that Timeless ethereal could possibly |
| 6378s | have done to slow that one down even the |
| 6381s | ality field wasn't enough to slow it |
| 6382s | down and now moving fish with this very |
| 6384s | aggressive positioning means that sniper |
| 6386s | can't sit comfortably where they want to |
| 6388s | right now yeah it's like sniper doesn't |
| 6391s | really have a good way to get that |
| 6392s | Winston off The High Ground either |
| 6393s | without positioning The Shield up there |
| 6395s | but then you are faced with so much |
| 6397s | damage coming up up front now X10 forced |
| 6400s | off The High Ground so not as good of an |
| 6401s | angle but still that Bob in the back |
| 6403s | pocket and the prang will rage as well |
| 6404s | TR this ethereal just building up to |
| 6406s | that cortic FL on sniper and should be |
| 6408s | able to get a little bit of damage down |
| 6410s | but it doesn't actually connect so they |
| 6411s | are able to get out of all of it while |
| 6413s | whisk goes down in the backline moving |
| 6415s | fish still going for more with the |
| 6417s | Primal Rage coming through and Bun now |
| 6419s | switching onto the Tracer but the pulse |
| 6421s | bomb does not connect and moving fish |
| 6423s | still alive despite not having a sight |
| 6425s | line onto their backline no supports and |
| 6428s | still able to keep themselves up with |
| 6430s | the Primal Rage I the bun Tracer swap I |
| 6432s | do like the idea in theory but I think |
| 6434s | she needs to be a little bit more |
| 6435s | aggressive and try and focus down the |
| 6436s | supports a little bit more but she's |
| 6437s | actually going to reach for all reliable |
| 6439s | that Bastion she's not going to |
| 6440s | pressuring down any support she wants to |
| 6442s | make moving fishes like hell oh and now |
| 6445s | with the rally as well poru is able to |
| 6447s | keep moving fish up through all of that |
| 6450s | damage even with sniper right into their |
| 6451s | faces forcing out both the sound barrier |
| 6453s | and the immortality field cooldowns as |
| 6455s | well as the amplification Matrix but it |
| 6457s | doesn't even Force any positioning X10 |
| 6459s | is just taxing this payload all the way |
| 6462s | to the end and sniper is taking so much |
| 6464s | damage has to disengage and now goes in |
| 6466s | for the recontest but this is such a |
| 6468s | tough one trying to dance around the |
| 6469s | shield sniper go goes down H key has |
| 6472s | that Dragon Blade and is just going onto |
| 6474s | this backline bun how are you going to |
| 6476s | get into position there is no way and |
| 6479s | there is an round completion all the way |
| 6483s | to the end and it and it does come down |
| 6486s | to both again that early mid-fight |
| 6488s | pickoff there onto sniper on on point a |
| 6490s | that ends up giving the point over to |
| 6492s | nyxl Embers and then the fact that they |
| 6494s | were able to have the wherewithal to |
| 6495s | cycle their ults effectively snowball |
| 6498s | everything through point B and you can |
| 6499s | even look at the value that this Genji |
| 6501s | is actually getting from hkey now 15 and |
| 6504s | three that's a pretty good KD 14 and one |
| 6506s | for X10 that's uh yeah that's that's |
| 6509s | pretty good and then you know let's look |
| 6511s | at onun as well only one death that |
| 6513s | means that you know even when bun did |
| 6515s | make the swap over onto the Tracer there |
| 6517s | was no backline pressure coming out from |
| 6519s | nyxl Embers so all those bades are going |
| 6521s | to eventually start to find Pay Dirt all |
| 6523s | of that healing going on to moving fish |
| 6525s | means that they're going to be a lot |
| 6526s | more difficult to dislodge that's going |
| 6528s | to make more space for H key to go in |
| 6530s | you know potentially with the Nanos that |
| 6532s | anun has built up just from sheer value |
| 6534s | of being alive getting all of this |
| 6536s | healing done it's dive 101 and you know |
| 6539s | whatever happened on on downtown Samoa |
| 6541s | it's been thrown out the window nyxl |
| 6542s | Embers this is how you are going to have |
| 6544s | to keep playing if you want to play this |
| 6546s | comp I like what I'm seeing so far can |
| 6548s | we get a good defensive hold with it no |
| 6550s | I love the aggression that we saw come |
| 6552s | out from on Timeless with the oil |
| 6553s | initially their comp is a lot more front |
| 6556s | to back when they had that may when they |
| 6558s | had the sojourn like the sojourn can go |
| 6560s | for the flank but it's they're not |
| 6561s | really a flank hero now switching on the |
| 6563s | Tracer you have a little bit more |
| 6565s | pressure on the back line and this |
| 6567s | though still being able to protect and |
| 6569s | un it's going to be a good look and whis |
| 6572s | trying to shot out on the Widow now back |
| 6574s | onto soj I mean looking for an opening |
| 6577s | shot see if anybody was going to take |
| 6578s | the bait no one did so time to find a |
| 6580s | new fishing hole and we're going to swap |
| 6581s | over to the so to do it that's a great |
| 6583s | Dynamite spot though utilizing this |
| 6584s | choke now X10 has an advantageous |
| 6586s | position on this choke oh poru goes down |
| 6589s | to Z though and any you is a little bit |
| 6591s | vulnerable because of that but they |
| 6593s | nearly took down sniper they were able |
| 6594s | to get the immortality field cool down |
| 6596s | on NL ember's side and now bun is just |
| 6599s | really trying to pressure out X10 and |
| 6601s | make sure that they can't get the |
| 6602s | position time with ethereal they are |
| 6604s | finding their picks X10 going down and |
| 6607s | in a matter of seconds that's a point |
| 6608s | gap that's the value that the Tracer is |
| 6610s | going to provide if you keep harassing |
| 6611s | the backliners or even harassing X10 it |
| 6613s | makes it so hard for anyone to support |
| 6615s | moving fish's dive and then suddenly |
| 6617s | they can't realistically go in at all in |
| 6619s | any place where they're going to find |
| 6620s | significant value there's just not |
| 6621s | enough damage that comes out from the |
| 6623s | Winston if anun can't sit comfortably |
| 6626s | then moving fish is going to have a bad |
| 6628s | time so great play from bun there to do |
| 6630s | just that have that constant threat |
| 6632s | there now almost ethereal they want to |
| 6634s | try and keep up the snowball they don't |
| 6635s | want to give nyxl Embers this PGE from |
| 6637s | which to jump |
| 6639s | on well now we have moving fish trying |
| 6641s | to jump on sniper the anti gets a lot of |
| 6644s | damage whis just spams right through |
| 6646s | that bubble and takes down moving fish |
| 6647s | and NL Embers now left on their back |
| 6650s | foot once again they don't really have a |
| 6652s | leg to stand on without that Winson |
| 6654s | being the me Shield having so much |
| 6656s | damage and making space at the front now |
| 6658s | sniper can just Coral this entire Squad |
| 6660s | into a little room and even though they |
| 6662s | do have the anti-ad here they are able |
| 6664s | to keep themselves up and whis has such |
| 6667s | good position is being basically |
| 6668s | uncontested from that High Ground I mean |
| 6671s | yeah uncontested is Right nyxl Embers |
| 6673s | they're just going to vacate the |
| 6673s | premises especially with that ant Matrix |
| 6675s | up once that's down though be on the |
| 6677s | lookout for another push to come out |
| 6678s | here the nanoade combo is almost online |
| 6681s | as is the Bob they're going to need to |
| 6683s | invest at least half of that to try and |
| 6685s | retake this High Ground cuz that is all |
| 6687s | important right |
| 6690s | now this High Ground means so much for |
| 6694s | being able to make sure this point does |
| 6697s | not get through from under the bridge |
| 6698s | now they're going to go ahead with the |
| 6700s | Nano moving fish going up onto The High |
| 6702s | Ground they still have three ultimates |
| 6704s | left over to expend Now using the oh P |
| 6707s | bomb to take down anion now the Bob has |
| 6709s | to come through to try and eat even out |
| 6710s | the player disadvantage moving fish |
| 6712s | hasn't found a single pick despite |
| 6714s | having that Nano on top but Z does go |
| 6717s | down eventually how hello |
| 6721s | bun H key okay H key comes in with the |
| 6724s | blade and Bun goes down but they use the |
| 6726s | blade to do that and it's literally like |
| 6729s | less than a meter from the that's that's |
| 6733s | so awful I mean they used all three of |
| 6734s | their ultimates sure they build up the |
| 6735s | Primal Rage but the fact that they had |
| 6737s | to use the the Dragon Blade just to |
| 6739s | touch the point and stop the C9 from |
| 6741s | coming through that's I mean bun just |
| 6744s | gets value just by existing in the |
| 6746s | backline you can see po you doesn't want |
| 6747s | to take any chances now just holding |
| 6748s | this frig on the cart as close as |
| 6750s | possible we're not falling for that one |
| 6752s | fool me once fool me twice |
| 6755s | uh-uh yeah they are just not going to be |
| 6757s | taking any risk anymore whis trying to |
| 6759s | get a lot of damage down as this dive |
| 6761s | goes through the sound barrier comes |
| 6762s | down and whsp using the overclock to |
| 6764s | force themselves onto that High Ground |
| 6766s | HP looking to deflect but there is |
| 6768s | nothing to come overclock fully charged |
| 6770s | looking to take down moving fish and |
| 6772s | does so HQ still looking to contest |
| 6774s | trying to get some of that healing |
| 6776s | through but X10 going down and pour you |
| 6778s | quickly after there is just not much |
| 6781s | that anyone can do to stop this push |
| 6783s | from happening when you're playing a |
| 6785s | dive comp like this you live and die by |
| 6786s | your ultimate economy especially when |
| 6788s | you're going to like again we go back to |
| 6790s | having to use that Dragon Blade wouldn't |
| 6792s | would have been so nice to have that |
| 6794s | available right to slow down all of this |
| 6796s | pressure time atherial wouldn't it have |
| 6798s | been you know something just to be able |
| 6800s | to chunk through some of that you know |
| 6802s | all that Health you know maybe force out |
| 6803s | a couple more cool downs from ESS |
| 6804s | ethereal but they don't have to sweat |
| 6806s | time ethereal can just push up even P |
| 6808s | way up here on this corner are you |
| 6810s | actually going to make a swap over onto |
| 6811s | the kittyo so I'm curious as to what the |
| 6813s | game plan is with this I mean maybe just |
| 6816s | to try and go for one quick kunai shot |
| 6818s | onto |
| 6819s | bun okay well sniper had such good |
| 6821s | forward position but that just was |
| 6823s | immediately melted because there was no |
| 6824s | sight line from Z they're using that |
| 6826s | amplification Matrix to force a few |
| 6828s | positions and there is the anti |
| 6830s | antibiotic to come down but the Primal |
| 6832s | Rage onto moving fish get out of there |
| 6834s | Winston try and get a little bit of help |
| 6836s | before since that is connecting but I |
| 6839s | think foru is really just looking for a |
| 6841s | little bit more mobility and able to |
| 6843s | follow up on these Dives I mean you're |
| 6844s | definitely going to want some Mobility |
| 6846s | right now with that gravitic flux coming |
| 6847s | and you want to get the hell out of |
| 6848s | there moving fish gets slammed down half |
| 6850s | the HP bar taken down they going to |
| 6852s | force the Nano just so they can keep the |
| 6855s | aggression I mean this is a nice idea |
| 6858s | from them as well just being able to |
| 6859s | keep up their momentum and make sure |
| 6861s | that they're still being forth forward |
| 6862s | especially since Oru is building up to |
| 6865s | that katuni Rush as well both of the DPS |
| 6868s | ultimates on the board for nyxl Embers |
| 6870s | they just need to be able to cycle them |
| 6871s | well bun falling to X10 with one head |
| 6874s | shot is good though and sniper if |
| 6876s | they're able to land a good anti should |
| 6878s | be able to just shred through the health |
| 6880s | of the S even if they don't though look |
| 6882s | at the the ult economy for nyxl Embers |
| 6884s | they're cycling it through perfectly and |
| 6885s | because of that Nano boost that Anon |
| 6887s | used onto that gravitic flux they |
| 6888s | weren't able to secure the kill they |
| 6889s | have to play far back now they don't |
| 6891s | have space to operate X10 can keep going |
| 6893s | in for the shots you can even see how |
| 6895s | far forward sniper is playing to try and |
| 6896s | deny that angle but that just leaves |
| 6899s | moving fish with perfect access to the |
| 6901s | backline yeah sniper can't be there to |
| 6904s | try and protect the back line there's a |
| 6905s | bob to come through and it tears through |
| 6907s | the immortality field and now that |
| 6909s | backline has to use the sound barrier to |
| 6911s | keep themselves alive whis going to |
| 6913s | shred through the health of the Bob at |
| 6915s | the very least but takes the overclock |
| 6916s | to do so and now is so low Health as |
| 6919s | moving fish goes for the dive on they |
| 6921s | have the Ki Rush theyve used that blade |
| 6923s | as well and now the katuni rush to come |
| 6925s | through and allows for so much more |
| 6927s | damage to be put down by this DPS line |
| 6930s | for you trying to keep themselves alive |
| 6932s | and is able to do so however X10 getting |
| 6935s | very very low imortality field to keep |
| 6937s | sniper up and whis finds the first pick |
| 6940s | onto H key Now using the Nano to keep |
| 6942s | moving fish alive and keep up the |
| 6943s | aggression onto the back line but |
| 6945s | they're still going to have to disengage |
| 6946s | and whisp with that final rail gun shot |
| 6949s | find |
| 6950s | that's such a long fight and it's all |
| 6952s | because of anun being able to keep po |
| 6953s | you alive and being able to keep moving |
| 6955s | fish alive with the aid of the Nano but |
| 6956s | now it's starting to stagger it's all |
| 6958s | starting to fall apart Timeless ethereal |
| 6960s | are making some Headway here and with no |
| 6961s | ult to their name it's going to be |
| 6963s | stagger City for nyxl Embers they have |
| 6965s | to try and get on the point keep it in |
| 6966s | contest and build up to something |
| 6968s | surmountable with an ant Matrix coming |
| 6970s | through and with whis pumping in the |
| 6971s | damage it just might not be in the |
| 6974s | cards oh now they have X10 switching |
| 6976s | onto the Tracer just weaving in and out |
| 6978s | of the point able to get a little of |
| 6980s | that Health back and H ke finding whis |
| 6982s | so now for you and an and keeping their |
| 6984s | DPSS alive buying time for moving fish |
| 6987s | to come back in now on the doist loss of |
| 6988s | Mobility here and for you also just |
| 6991s | keeping that DPS up Halo and Z they're |
| 6993s | trading a little bit back though they're |
| 6995s | able to find both of the supports and |
| 6997s | now there is just no backline for |
| 6999s | anybody but less than a minute left over |
| 7001s | if they're able to full cap this on |
| 7003s | Timeless ethereal side they will have |
| 7004s | less of a Time Bank than nyxl Embers so |
| 7007s | nyxl Embers this is their map win I I |
| 7009s | mean that's all like for my money once |
| 7011s | again anun is the hero of that fight X10 |
| 7014s | no gets a little aggressive and sniper |
| 7016s | catches out catches catches them out are |
| 7018s | they going to be able to get back in |
| 7020s | time HQ needs to stay alive here the |
| 7021s | suzu is forced early time is ethereal |
| 7023s | they smell blood in the water and they |
| 7025s | need to attack |
| 7026s | it and now the kitsuna rush to come |
| 7029s | through just force that position through |
| 7031s | get that little bit of damage down |
| 7032s | there's the pulse bomb ready looking for |
| 7034s | a stick stick onto Wisp and now they're |
| 7036s | missing that overclock that potentially |
| 7038s | could have come through EX taking down |
| 7040s | that DPS and the Sleep onto sniper that |
| 7043s | is so good now sniper without that tank |
| 7045s | without that meat Shield how is they're |
| 7047s | going to force this forward they're |
| 7048s | using the sound beer getting that over |
| 7050s | Health getting that shield and hopefully |
| 7052s | it should allow them to stay on the |
| 7054s | point but moving fish Tak down Z now no |
| 7057s | sustain and nyxl Embers they are in the |
| 7060s | position to win it can they touch once |
| 7062s | again sniper activates the overtime but |
| 7065s | is shredded through the doomfist help |
| 7066s | whis has this power slid through but the |
| 7068s | overtime is gone on too soon nyxl Embers |
| 7072s | they win Midtown this is what I want to |
| 7074s | see from nyxl Embers I know that they |
| 7076s | are this good and I know they are |
| 7078s | capable of playing the dive composition |
| 7080s | to this extent HQ she's phenomenal on |
| 7082s | this Genji and X10 on the Tracer there |
| 7084s | with some of the hero plays toward the |
| 7086s | tail end you know I I highlight anun and |
| 7088s | of course I'm going to get back to her |
| 7089s | in a second just give me a moment HQ and |
| 7092s | X10 going in deep the pressure down whs |
| 7095s | and uh and Z you know we're playing |
| 7097s | behind that ant Matrix way far in the |
| 7099s | back getting a ton of value putting out |
| 7100s | so much damage onto the point making it |
| 7102s | hard for for nyxl Embers to even try and |
| 7104s | keep it in contest taking down that |
| 7106s | sojourn is the first Domino to fall and |
| 7108s | everything else just collapses from |
| 7110s | there and it also has to do with the |
| 7112s | focus fire that was going down onto anun |
| 7114s | and the fact that even in death she was |
| 7116s | able to get a Parting Shot onto bun take |
| 7119s | that Tracer out of the equation suddenly |
| 7121s | with no DPS there's no way that ESS |
| 7123s | athero can close that one out and just |
| 7126s | by the Skin of Their Teeth nyxl Embers |
| 7128s | hang on take Midtown and set us up one |
| 7131s | to |
| 7132s | one I think we have a series on our |
| 7134s | hands CV because remember this is the |
| 7136s | upper semifinals we have a first to |
| 7139s | three potentially five maps and with a |
| 7142s | one to one score line already we are |
| 7144s | guaranteed this fourth map I think nyxl |
| 7147s | Embers that first point on Midtown was |
| 7149s | definitely a little bit dicey Timeless |
| 7151s | Imperial basically bow them over like |
| 7153s | dominoes but as soon as they were into |
| 7155s | the streets phase they were able to hold |
| 7157s | on so well a little bit of an oopsy with |
| 7159s | the back C from bun but otherwise I |
| 7161s | think they were doing so incredibly well |
| 7164s | in keeping up the pressure keeping up |
| 7165s | the aggression and just melting down |
| 7167s | that time bank as well it was I believe |
| 7169s | more than four minutes headed onto third |
| 7171s | point and they were just able to |
| 7172s | completely get rid of it and it's going |
| 7174s | to sound very very stupid but I think |
| 7176s | the key to Victory here for nyxl Embers |
| 7179s | is the fact that they did not C9 sure |
| 7181s | they had to invest everything to prevent |
| 7183s | bun from bat capping there but they did |
| 7184s | not C9 that's the kind of thing that |
| 7187s | like when you're already down in a |
| 7188s | series can just completely boom you like |
| 7190s | your spirit's just broken like you're |
| 7192s | you're like I'm such a I'm such an idiot |
| 7194s | I can't believe I let that happen we're |
| 7195s | so stupid how did they you avoid all |
| 7198s | that right you still get to breathe you |
| 7200s | win the map hey you it was your map pick |
| 7202s | you win that means you know Timeless |
| 7203s | ethereal it's gonna be theirs next |
| 7205s | because they have the advantage from |
| 7206s | winning control but you stay alive you |
| 7209s | don't suffer a humiliating defeat on |
| 7211s | your map pick that's pretty big you you |
| 7213s | got to keep your mental up through you |
| 7215s | know to make it through a series that's |
| 7216s | like |
| 7217s | this yeah I mean I'm sure when it happen |
| 7219s | and they were just like oh my God what |
| 7221s | are we doing but then they were building |
| 7223s | up the alt Banks again they got their |
| 7224s | momentum back they were back into the |
| 7226s | aggression they were back into the swing |
| 7227s | of things and then all was well once |
| 7229s | again and now where is timeless ethereal |
| 7231s | going to take us over on the splash |
| 7233s | point and Timeless ethereal you |
| 7234s | mentioned that their map streak was |
| 7236s | broken last weekend and they're trying |
| 7238s | to build up another one but they were |
| 7240s | just denied that by nyxl Embers yeah no |
| 7242s | no map streak where was set the timer |
| 7244s | back down to zero maybe we'll start it |
| 7246s | again on new junk City but hey it's |
| 7247s | definitely not going to reach try again |
| 7249s | try again definitely not going to reach |
| 7250s | that 29 that we had before all right |
| 7252s | unless unless we make some big moves |
| 7254s | through uh through the Championships but |
| 7256s | hey you know that's assuming I mean it |
| 7258s | is got a pretty safe assumption but |
| 7259s | assuming Timeless ethereal make it that |
| 7261s | far they most likely will I don't see |
| 7263s | any any world in which they fall out of |
| 7265s | the top six here but you still want to |
| 7266s | make sure that you're high seated you |
| 7267s | know you still want to make sure that |
| 7268s | you're asserting your dominance and |
| 7270s | right now it's being challenged right by |
| 7272s | both Michael wave and now by nyxl Embers |
| 7274s | I like this dive composition from nyxl I |
| 7276s | want to see them keep playing it I want |
| 7278s | to see if you know if tyon ethereal |
| 7281s | adapt or if they're just going to stick |
| 7282s | to their guns just try and play that |
| 7284s | default Sigma composition as well as |
| 7286s | they possibly can are they going to be |
| 7288s | forced to make a swap I mean is their |
| 7290s | back going to be up against a wall are |
| 7291s | they going to be forced to I I don't |
| 7293s | even know if I've seen them make a swap |
| 7294s | for like you know last Point contesting |
| 7296s | I think they've just been sticking with |
| 7297s | the sigma pretty much you know till |
| 7299s | they're |
| 7300s | dead yeah I think that sniper switched |
| 7303s | to doomfist for all of 15 seconds |
| 7306s | according to the stats that we have here |
| 7309s | so at at the very end when it was |
| 7311s | overtime sniper switch doomfist but |
| 7312s | otherwise they were basically just |
| 7314s | sticking to their guns for most of the |
| 7316s | just most of the map they weren't really |
| 7318s | trying to adapt around these team |
| 7320s | compositions this is what they know this |
| 7322s | is what they're good at and they're |
| 7323s | going to stick to that but on the other |
| 7325s | hand we saw some adaptation coming |
| 7327s | through on the side of nyxl Embers we |
| 7330s | saw that they were trying things and |
| 7332s | they in the end decided to stick with |
| 7335s | the Winston dive and that really helped |
| 7337s | them out I what's interesting by the way |
| 7340s | is like you know I'm I'm asking if we're |
| 7341s | going to see any swaps that come out |
| 7342s | from the side of Timeless ethereal if |
| 7344s | they're going to make any compositional |
| 7345s | changes but realistically they don't |
| 7347s | actually have to cuz we did see glimpses |
| 7349s | of it in the previous Series where you |
| 7351s | can just have your May player Mark the |
| 7353s | enemy Genji and suddenly there's going |
| 7355s | to be no follow-up damage for the dive |
| 7357s | for whatever reason bun who I'm touting |
| 7360s | as potentially the best May in all of |
| 7361s | calling all heroes if not definitively |
| 7364s | the best May in C she doesn't feel like |
| 7367s | she has the ability to do that so we're |
| 7370s | not ever seeing a situation where nyxl |
| 7372s | Embers are really forced off of the dive |
| 7374s | unless the map is calling for it and it |
| 7376s | feels like here on new junk City the map |
| 7379s | very well might be calling for it I |
| 7380s | think flasho as a game mode is just a |
| 7383s | little bit more conducive to this Sigma |
| 7384s | composition with the May and with the uh |
| 7386s | the sojan on one side the Asher on the |
| 7388s | other scratch that no exent going back |
| 7390s | over to the |
| 7392s | soj well Soldier and a mirror I mean |
| 7395s | it's it's just a 100% mirror composition |
| 7398s | for both of these and I mean I think |
| 7400s | eyes will be on anun because you are |
| 7402s | touting her as one of the best flex |
| 7404s | supports in calling all heroes and as |
| 7406s | well as bun now on their comfort pick of |
| 7409s | that may so HP getting shredded a little |
| 7411s | bit early but it seems like NYL Embers |
| 7414s | they want to go for something very |
| 7416s | aggressive here it looks like bun got |
| 7417s | the first May wall out there that should |
| 7419s | force down a lot of cool Downs now she's |
| 7420s | going to go ahead and put up another one |
| 7421s | but it goes right back down Timeless |
| 7423s | ethereal they actually get pressured |
| 7426s | down that was such an excellent wall |
| 7428s | from H key and that takes down sniper |
| 7430s | and the rest of them are just going to |
| 7431s | fall like dominoes they should be able |
| 7433s | to get that first capture onto the flash |
| 7435s | point halow and Z falling up shortly |
| 7438s | after that that's a rare misstep there |
| 7440s | from bun the First wall was good cuz it |
| 7441s | forced down the coold Downs the second |
| 7443s | one though didn't stay up long enough |
| 7444s | for NYX or for Timeless ethereal to get |
| 7447s | any value out of it so nyxl Embers yeah |
| 7449s | they take first cap and now it's |
| 7451s | Timeless ethereal that have to try and |
| 7452s | find their way in nyxl Embers can just |
| 7454s | split play around this choke point wait |
| 7456s | for time that the to walk into their |
| 7458s | trap and then spray it all out of the |
| 7460s | dive comp but you know a little bit |
| 7461s | something a little bit more |
| 7463s | mirrored oh no PO you falling to whisp |
| 7466s | that is kind of devastating for their |
| 7469s | squad having that first pick go on one |
| 7471s | their supports extend maybe able to St |
| 7473s | it back so bun just was not expecting |
| 7475s | all that damage to come from the side |
| 7477s | sniper Falls to one HP and there is once |
| 7480s | again the immortality shield from Z |
| 7483s | however the amp Matrix is being built up |
| 7485s | very quickly on Timeless etherial side |
| 7486s | on the other side they already have an |
| 7488s | amp Matrix ready they could potentially |
| 7489s | Force the positioning but it is ticking |
| 7491s | up very quickly already up to 80% from |
| 7494s | nyxl Embers they need to get a touch |
| 7496s | quickly or just give this one up I mean |
| 7498s | the pick up on theoru is really all the |
| 7500s | time etheral have their name right now |
| 7501s | and sure losing the mobility kind of |
| 7503s | hurts but when you have the enemy pinned |
| 7504s | down you don't need Mobility it's |
| 7505s | Timeless ethereal that have to make the |
| 7508s | move yeah they have nowhere to go they |
| 7511s | have to get on to the point sniper going |
| 7513s | down the ice block comes through from |
| 7514s | bun but it is just nothing to be done |
| 7517s | overtime slowly fading away with are you |
| 7519s | going to go for the touch here and they |
| 7521s | do and fall immediately now without a |
| 7524s | leg to stand on Timeless ethereal they |
| 7527s | lose that first capture and we even go |
| 7529s | back to that pick off onto puu well puu |
| 7531s | is back and now the sound barrier old |
| 7533s | charge has matched up so you don't even |
| 7534s | have the advantage there because you |
| 7536s | weren't able to pull the trigger so you |
| 7538s | know Halo she's got to be worrying about |
| 7540s | like all right when do I use this it's |
| 7541s | got to be for hq's blizzard right you |
| 7543s | know that that's the the main logical |
| 7544s | time that you're going to want to use it |
| 7545s | meanwhile for you you know you use it |
| 7548s | for the gravitic flux use it for the |
| 7549s | blizzard use it for whatever comes out |
| 7550s | from Timeless ethereal but again it's |
| 7552s | nyxl Embers that they have the early the |
| 7554s | Early Point presence it's at Timeless |
| 7556s | ethereal having to come through a choke |
| 7558s | point here playing into nyxl's |
| 7561s | hand now nyxl Embers they're in such |
| 7564s | good position the gravitic flux from |
| 7566s | sniper does come through though it's |
| 7567s | going to be the immortality field that |
| 7570s | saves them and the Blizzard from bun now |
| 7572s | looking to get some aggression down and |
| 7574s | it does take down H key but they use the |
| 7576s | sound barrier as well just to get that |
| 7579s | overhal Timeless ethereal they're |
| 7581s | comboing their ultimates very well and |
| 7583s | moving fish doesn't have any supports to |
| 7586s | help him help them out they are going to |
| 7588s | go down well things uh have at least |
| 7591s | leveled out here ult wise we're in a |
| 7592s | fairly neutral save for the overclocks |
| 7594s | on either side but neither soier |
| 7597s | currently in position to make anything |
| 7598s | out of him I'm curious to see if X10 |
| 7600s | might try and go for a flank draw a |
| 7601s | little bit of pressure away from the |
| 7603s | choke point where there is currently a |
| 7605s | lot of pressure actually in the form of |
| 7606s | a couple of May walls you know what's |
| 7608s | those go down it might get a little bit |
| 7610s | more easy to move about the cabin here |
| 7612s | but there it is there's the |
| 7614s | flank yeah the flank from xn finding |
| 7617s | Halo I mean Halo didn't have a sound |
| 7619s | barrier but still that extra Mobility |
| 7621s | would have been nice he's going to trade |
| 7622s | that right back for foro but the rest of |
| 7624s | nyxl Embers they are running over the |
| 7627s | BPS line whsp is looking for a flank of |
| 7630s | their own fun almost going down oh it's |
| 7633s | actually X10 that's just gets found by |
| 7635s | the rail gun shot immortality field cool |
| 7638s | down used to keep moving fish alive and |
| 7640s | on the point able to weave in and out |
| 7641s | the shield for a few seconds longer but |
| 7644s | it seems like they're just going to be |
| 7645s | staying alive never mind whsp goes in |
| 7647s | for another rail gun shot and pumping |
| 7649s | out the BPS is this sojourn allowing |
| 7652s | Timeless ethereal to keep a hold on to |
| 7654s | this point overtime now activated as the |
| 7657s | once again try and re-engage H key just |
| 7659s | get shredded through though and I don't |
| 7661s | think foru can contest this I I I really |
| 7664s | did like the flank play from X10 but |
| 7666s | that initial rail shot with the |
| 7667s | overclock has to be a one two punch and |
| 7669s | the second punch from nyxl EMB just |
| 7671s | never came through you know moving fish |
| 7673s | was on the point living for a very long |
| 7675s | time but you take that if you're in |
| 7677s | control of the point it doesn't matter |
| 7678s | if the enemy tank is alive for forever |
| 7680s | if they never die who cares cuz you |
| 7681s | still at the end of the day capture the |
| 7683s | point once moving fish finally you know |
| 7685s | drops off the point and even drops off |
| 7687s | the face of the Earth finally gets |
| 7688s | cleaned up by that point the fight's |
| 7690s | already won Timeless ethereal in |
| 7692s | essentially one fight take that entire |
| 7695s | point now we move over here to this next |
| 7697s | point and Timeless a are now the ones |
| 7700s | who are in control early nyxl Embers |
| 7702s | once again having to find a way |
| 7704s | in and now zoned out by the May wall |
| 7707s | once again having a moving fish with |
| 7710s | their back against the wall but using |
| 7711s | the gravitic FX and actually catching |
| 7713s | the Baptist in it the immortality field |
| 7715s | does go down the Baptist is trying to |
| 7717s | escape while the blizzard comes through |
| 7719s | from bun and shreds through both of the |
| 7721s | DPS of nyxl Embers now without no one |
| 7724s | anyone to pump out any damage is going |
| 7726s | to be really hard to keep this |
| 7729s | tank up and the rest of them fall like |
| 7731s | Domino's it's a shame cuz the gravitic |
| 7733s | flux from moving fish captured exactly |
| 7734s | who they needed to they needed to get Z |
| 7736s | off the field there potentially maybe |
| 7737s | get a pick off there onto Halo as well |
| 7739s | but the supports had the cooldowns that |
| 7741s | they needed and had the follow-up damage |
| 7742s | from the rest of the Embers been there |
| 7744s | you know you got to believe that Z at |
| 7745s | the very least would have fallen but |
| 7747s | everybody was too busy dealing with bun |
| 7748s | and the blizzard on the point great ult |
| 7750s | play coming out from Timeless ethereal |
| 7752s | and it's only one ult that they use to |
| 7754s | win that one more fight and they're |
| 7756s | going to win it they're going to go and |
| 7756s | open up the gravitic flux here it looks |
| 7758s | like doesn't really catch |
| 7761s | anybody yeah they were just kind of all |
| 7763s | stuck under the door there and x 10 |
| 7766s | though finding fun is just traded right |
| 7768s | back it's the soldier in 1 V one |
| 7770s | head-to-head that they just keep getting |
| 7772s | so much value out of the x10 comes on |
| 7774s | top of wisp and they had that overlock |
| 7777s | in the back pocket so now Timeless |
| 7779s | ethereal they're trying to deal with the |
| 7780s | flank from X10 and that's going to get |
| 7782s | them out of position on the point so at |
| 7784s | the very least capture comes through |
| 7785s | from oxl Embers but now the re-engage |
| 7788s | from sniper first they have to find a |
| 7789s | way to shred through the health and do |
| 7791s | so with the May wall Halo doesn't have |
| 7793s | legs to sand on goes down that that's a |
| 7795s | 2K for Halo by the way I like she she |
| 7797s | almost single-handedly flips that back |
| 7799s | in favor of Timeless ethereal but being |
| 7800s | the last one standing it's no it's no |
| 7803s | way for El Lucio to be unless you're |
| 7804s | trying to really really stall for time |
| 7806s | you definitely don't want to give too |
| 7808s | much time over to nyxl Embers because |
| 7809s | they're going to start building up to an |
| 7810s | overclock to match your own they're |
| 7812s | going to start building up to a gravitic |
| 7814s | flux while you're trailing a little bit |
| 7815s | behind support alss aren't really much |
| 7817s | of a factor right now it's going to come |
| 7819s | down mostly to which sojourn is able to |
| 7821s | get the better of it with WIS having the |
| 7822s | early early overclock it just might be |
| 7824s | timeless |
| 7826s | ethereal a lot of damage going down |
| 7828s | that's the immortality field only taking |
| 7830s | down the immortality field here so great |
| 7833s | use of it from anion to keep the team |
| 7835s | alive and now the overclock does come |
| 7837s | through from X10 needs to find a lot of |
| 7839s | damage here doesn't look like they're |
| 7841s | connecting too many of the rail gon |
| 7842s | shots just yet but moving fish using the |
| 7845s | gravitic blux also not finding anything |
| 7847s | sniper trades it back but just |
| 7848s | immediately dies before it could even go |
| 7850s | off and un being the one to take down |
| 7853s | that tank Halo however looking to be the |
| 7855s | DPS Lucio that Timeless ethereal needs |
| 7857s | trying to find a hero but there is no |
| 7859s | hero for Timeless ethereal as they are |
| 7862s | pulled over nyxl Ember is taking second |
| 7864s | capture point so so X10 doesn't actually |
| 7866s | find a whole lot of damage with that |
| 7868s | overclock right but they don't actually |
| 7869s | even need to because everybody just |
| 7870s | tries to kite it losos and they shepher |
| 7872s | themselves into a nice convenient corner |
| 7875s | for moving fish to lift them all up by |
| 7877s | the Scruff of their neck with that vitic |
| 7878s | flux and slam them back down the |
| 7880s | followup damage does come through sniper |
| 7882s | tries to respond but you know there's |
| 7884s | not enough support there's not enough |
| 7886s | healing there's not enough for them to |
| 7887s | be able to get that ultimate off and |
| 7889s | they end up essentially just donating it |
| 7890s | over rather than holding it on for the |
| 7892s | junkyard point over here where now yeah |
| 7895s | they have a blizzard and they have a |
| 7896s | beat but look at nyxl Embers ditto for |
| 7898s | them and they've got the point |
| 7902s | presence yeah they already have good |
| 7904s | control good defensive positioning up on |
| 7906s | The High Ground as well which is |
| 7907s | incredibly important important but HK |
| 7909s | does get the ice Block Force pretty |
| 7911s | quickly it seems like they might be |
| 7912s | looking for a flank play on wisp side |
| 7915s | still trying to get onto that High |
| 7916s | Ground oh oh okay Oro does go down to |
| 7919s | Halo the Lucio 1 V one coming out on |
| 7922s | Timeless ethereal on top sniper finding |
| 7924s | HP as well and moving fish I'm not |
| 7926s | really sure what happened there I'm |
| 7927s | going to assume it was a boot from Halo |
| 7929s | so another big play from this Lucio |
| 7932s | player I a ton of big plays you know you |
| 7933s | take poru out that's the enemy sound |
| 7935s | barrier that's you know their their last |
| 7937s | resort their oh no we're going to lose |
| 7939s | if we don't pop this ult emergency abort |
| 7941s | abort pop the sound barrier you take |
| 7943s | that option away you're going to either |
| 7945s | Force some other ults out or force them |
| 7946s | to just give up the whole point and |
| 7948s | thankfully for nyxl Embers it is the |
| 7949s | ladder they can hold on to their ult |
| 7951s | advantage that said though is it really |
| 7953s | an advantage cuz times the theal have |
| 7955s | matched it and even in some senses |
| 7957s | overtaken it and again with control of |
| 7959s | the point nyxl Embers on the outside |
| 7961s | looking in just trying to find a crack |
| 7963s | in the Timeless ethereal |
| 7966s | armor yeah whis already having the |
| 7968s | overclock now the blizzard come out from |
| 7970s | H ke looking for that little bit of |
| 7972s | damage takes down bun at the very least |
| 7974s | but it's just traded right back both of |
| 7976s | the maze now out of the picture with |
| 7978s | both lizards out of the picture using |
| 7980s | the gra gravity surge now from moving |
| 7982s | fish as well as sound barrier to force |
| 7985s | them onto this point while time of theal |
| 7987s | are still taking up the contention does |
| 7989s | come through Halo now coming in after |
| 7991s | using the sound barrier oh now without |
| 7994s | anion they helped take down the |
| 7996s | immortality field and allow whis to get |
| 7999s | those two picks with the overclock that |
| 8000s | that's a coll collateral damage there |
| 8002s | for whsp that's two with one rail shot |
| 8004s | and you know it's it's Halo that's |
| 8005s | setting a lot of this up she's playing |
| 8007s | phenomenally right now finding a lot of |
| 8009s | value going aggressive with a lot of the |
| 8010s | boobs displacing moving fish or outright |
| 8013s | displacing the entire enemy team off the |
| 8015s | map if she has her way there is only one |
| 8017s | more Point left to go we're at two a |
| 8019s | piece and as we move in Timeless |
| 8021s | ethereal should be the one to dig their |
| 8023s | claws into it earlier but nyxl Embers |
| 8026s | X10 has to kind of go huge here with |
| 8028s | this uh with this overclock right nyxl |
| 8030s | Embers can completely flip this on its |
| 8032s | head if x10's able to hit one rail shot |
| 8034s | but that's pressure how do they Fair |
| 8036s | under this kind of |
| 8038s | pressure they have the amp Matrix as |
| 8041s | well treading through the May wall to |
| 8043s | try and get that damage through sniper |
| 8045s | already falling pretty low on time |
| 8048s | serial side but X10 finds whis and now |
| 8051s | without a DPS moving fish going down to |
| 8053s | Halo though Halo is making some huge |
| 8056s | plays for Timeless Imperial playing out |
| 8058s | of her mind to get them in a good |
| 8059s | position to have that first capture it's |
| 8062s | a good opening pick off there from X10 |
| 8063s | but you can't lose moving fish there a |
| 8065s | Timeless at the they're going to take it |
| 8066s | and X10 you know holds on to the |
| 8068s | overclock yeah is still probably going |
| 8070s | to need to invest it in the next fight |
| 8071s | because nyxl Embers don't have anything |
| 8074s | else to speak of they can maybe build up |
| 8075s | to a blizzard or a sound be if this |
| 8077s | fight goes long but you don't want it to |
| 8080s | you want this to be swift you can't |
| 8081s | donate any time over to time with |
| 8082s | ethereal especially when we're on the |
| 8085s | last Point here n yxl Embers how do you |
| 8087s | get in in this narrow narrow |
| 8090s | choke yeah they are trying to be |
| 8093s | decisive the gravity actually does find |
| 8096s | a few people but it doesn't do much |
| 8098s | damage here it's actually going to be |
| 8099s | the Blizzard from bun the followup |
| 8101s | coring them all into this little room |
| 8104s | that's allowing them for you uses the |
| 8105s | beat but it's a little bit too late they |
| 8107s | at least flip that point over but they |
| 8110s | can't hold on to it they're not going to |
| 8112s | be able to hold on to it for long that's |
| 8114s | just kind of some trash percentage being |
| 8115s | donated over but that does kind of keep |
| 8117s | it a little bit safe that gives them a |
| 8119s | little bit of a buffer to where once |
| 8120s | they regroup they should be able to cap |
| 8122s | again fortunately you know the last two |
| 8124s | Heroes that were contesting were the |
| 8125s | fastest ones in nyxl EMP comp and they |
| 8128s | have an ult advantage but it is do or |
| 8130s | die right now they either win this fight |
| 8132s | and do it with enough to to play for the |
| 8134s | next fight or they are going to go down |
| 8137s | in this series amp Matrix is coming out |
| 8139s | from Timeless ethereal who's going to |
| 8141s | fall first it's X10 the over oh the |
| 8144s | overclock from X10 was active too but |
| 8146s | NYL Embers they should be able to clean |
| 8148s | up the rest of they were so focused on |
| 8150s | trying to take that DPS with the |
| 8151s | overclock out that they weren't focused |
| 8154s | on what the rest of the team was doing |
| 8156s | and that was shredding through their |
| 8157s | health bars a team Kill from nxl Embers |
| 8159s | helps it flip the point over and now |
| 8162s | they are steadly ticking up but Timeless |
| 8165s | ethereal they are in last fight |
| 8166s | territory nyxl Embers they still need to |
| 8169s | win one or two fights and the problem is |
| 8170s | that they used both DPS ultimates |
| 8172s | ideally you want to use the gravitic |
| 8173s | flux bait out the support ultimates you |
| 8175s | want to bait out that that immortality |
| 8177s | field as well then you go in with a |
| 8179s | blizzard or then you go in with an |
| 8180s | overclock and clean up the damage but |
| 8181s | that's not there they're going to have |
| 8183s | to do it with just this ridic flux bait |
| 8185s | out the beat and then go entirely |
| 8187s | neutral here this should be the last |
| 8189s | fight this decides who goes up in the |
| 8191s | series who gets the next map picked |
| 8193s | where are we going from here here comes |
| 8195s | the amp Matrix from NYX L ERS to kick it |
| 8198s | off oh and now the amp Matrix it doesn't |
| 8200s | seem to be finding anything it forces a |
| 8202s | little bit of positioning though and now |
| 8204s | they're in last fight territory they use |
| 8206s | the gravitic flux and immediately used |
| 8209s | the sound barrier to counter and |
| 8211s | Timeless atherial they're finding so |
| 8212s | much accent trates it back but is |
| 8214s | immediately taken down by bun now H ke |
| 8217s | has to stay alive there's the ice lock |
| 8218s | to come through but the Blizzard from |
| 8220s | Timeless ethereal they cannot do |
| 8222s | anything with that moving fish switches |
| 8224s | over to doomfist but these flash points |
| 8226s | they are just too far Timeless ethereal |
| 8229s | by the Skin of Their Teeth win flash |
| 8231s | points by the Skin of Their Teeth by the |
| 8234s | accretion of sniper to shut down that |
| 8236s | gravitic flux Timeless a the |
| 8238s | they're able to take it but this is |
| 8240s | feeling so close about as close as we |
| 8242s | expected you know it didn't look that |
| 8244s | close on Samoa but ever since then it's |
| 8246s | been blow for blow back and forth and |
| 8248s | this is a great microcosm of it you know |
| 8250s | I was calling out how like you know nyxl |
| 8253s | Embers don't have a secondary damage ult |
| 8255s | to follow up on the damage coming out |
| 8257s | from the gravitic flux well there wasn't |
| 8258s | any damage from the gravitic flux and |
| 8260s | sniper made sure of that they are one of |
| 8261s | the best sigas in the business and you |
| 8263s | got one of the best sigas in the |
| 8264s | business coupled with one of the best ma |
| 8267s | in the business that I mean that's the |
| 8269s | kind of business I want to be doing here |
| 8270s | in K if I'm trying to go for the top |
| 8272s | spot if I'm trying to assert my |
| 8274s | dominance and make everybody forget the |
| 8276s | name Michael wave this is how I do |
| 8280s | it make everyone also forget the name |
| 8282s | nyxl Embers because they also took a map |
| 8285s | from them which has been unheard of in |
| 8287s | the previous I think three majors and |
| 8290s | minors so that is just incredible taking |
| 8293s | a map from them on |
| 8295s | stream yeah I mean like in front of an |
| 8298s | audience no that's unforgivable for |
| 8300s | Timeless ethereal I mean yeah we have |
| 8302s | now borne witness to the fact that |
| 8304s | Timeless ethereal can bleed but we have |
| 8307s | also shown that they can bandage |
| 8308s | themselves up pretty damn well and they |
| 8310s | can also draw a fair bit of blood from |
| 8312s | the enemy team and it's going to |
| 8314s | continue to get bloody as we go on |
| 8316s | forward it's going to be nyxl ember's |
| 8318s | map pick as now Timeless ethereal are on |
| 8321s | map point and you know like it's so |
| 8324s | close you know what do you do if you're |
| 8326s | if you're nyxl Ember how do you try and |
| 8329s | overtake it how do you try and make up |
| 8330s | that last little bit of difference we |
| 8333s | are going to have to find out we're |
| 8334s | going to throw it to a quick break and |
| 8336s | we'll be right back with the next map |
| 8338s | pick don't go anywhere this one's heaten |
| 8346s | [Music] |
| 8356s | up |
| 8361s | [Music] |
| 8398s | [Music] |
| 8446s | oh |
| 8460s | [Music] |
| 8476s | he |
| 8482s | [Music] |
| 8495s | after heated three Maps between nyxl |
| 8498s | Embers versus Timeless ethereal this is |
| 8502s | looking to be a series that Can Go the |
| 8505s | Distance we are currently two one Tim |
| 8507s | list e theal leading and they are on map |
| 8509s | point but it is |
| 8511s | NYX X nyxl ember's map pick glad you did |
| 8515s | the the tongue twister practice before |
| 8516s | we went live yeah it does look like a |
| 8518s | series that Can Go the Distance but in |
| 8520s | order for it to go the distance nyxl |
| 8522s | Embers have to win here on their map |
| 8524s | pick which easier said than done going |
| 8526s | up against Timeless ethereal you know |
| 8529s | and looking at these two teams and the |
| 8530s | compositions that they've played I kind |
| 8532s | of favor nyxl Embers by sheer force of |
| 8534s | flexibility but that said when it goes |
| 8536s | to the sigma mirror |
| 8538s | I mean ESS ethereal just a hair better |
| 8541s | at that Sigma mirror when it comes to |
| 8542s | the sigma play when it comes to the may |
| 8543s | play I like the dive composition and I |
| 8545s | like the flexibility that moving fish |
| 8547s | has shown us but is that going to be |
| 8549s | enough for them to topple the tyrants |
| 8551s | that have been Timeless we're going to |
| 8553s | have to go to coloso to find |
| 8555s | out hey on the push map of coliseo let I |
| 8560s | don't know what is actually going to |
| 8561s | come out here and honestly if you have |
| 8563s | noticed my cat walking across my desk |
| 8565s | it's because he's trying to eat chipot |
| 8567s | leg sh shout out to Chipotle for a |
| 8569s | Barbacoa bowl that I am currently trying |
| 8571s | out apparently cats like it too but do |
| 8573s | not feed it to your cats because I don't |
| 8575s | think that they can have Chipotle hey |
| 8577s | hold on Google is uh can hold on can |
| 8581s | cats have |
| 8583s | Chipotle uh okay unfortunately Google |
| 8586s | says you should avoid letting your cats |
| 8588s | nibble on spicy food because it upsets |
| 8590s | their tummies and leaves them feeling |
| 8591s | sick okay yeah don't don't don't let |
| 8593s | your cats anywhere near the Chipotle |
| 8595s | enjoy it all for yourself we've got uh |
| 8597s | you know we got plenty of spice going on |
| 8599s | in this map already in this matchup and |
| 8601s | I like the coloso pick because this is |
| 8604s | where it gets kind of interesting that |
| 8605s | high ground that you're see on your |
| 8606s | screen right now on either side of the |
| 8608s | point is what makes Kaliso so oppressive |
| 8611s | and so difficult to try and make |
| 8613s | significant progress on I don't know if |
| 8616s | this means that it's better for nyxl |
| 8618s | Embers to bust out the dive composition |
| 8620s | to try and contest that on the enemy |
| 8622s | side or to like you know jump from it or |
| 8625s | if it's going to you know favor Timeless |
| 8627s | ethereals they just hold that high |
| 8629s | ground with the sigma I think in the |
| 8631s | neutral that little hallway and the |
| 8633s | center this should favor the sigma |
| 8635s | composition but anything past that is |
| 8637s | realistically anyone's |
| 8640s | guess yeah and I think coloso what's |
| 8643s | difficult as well is that first initial |
| 8646s | capture of the robot it's literally just |
| 8649s | one long hallway and it's not really a |
| 8652s | lot of places for you to go you can kind |
| 8653s | of Corral yourself into these like |
| 8655s | little div divots into the side into |
| 8658s | between the pillars but then you kind of |
| 8660s | have put yourself in not the greatest |
| 8662s | position but this High Ground we've seen |
| 8664s | X10 play a little bit of that Ash and I |
| 8666s | think it might be favorable to be taking |
| 8669s | out that Ash composition once again at |
| 8672s | least as one of the DPS R than the soj |
| 8674s | when when you're on the ground staring |
| 8676s | up at that high ground it isn't it's not |
| 8678s | a very good position to be in for a for |
| 8679s | a t to try and win a team fight it's a |
| 8681s | great position to hit up that gelotti |
| 8682s | cart over there I I'm a big fan of |
| 8684s | gelotti you know some uh some Italian |
| 8686s | Delicacies here very good stuff but I |
| 8689s | mean that's not what's going to win your |
| 8690s | Maps that's not what's going to win your |
| 8691s | tournaments that's definitely not what's |
| 8693s | going to get you the rest of the way two |
| 8695s | championships and that's what it's all |
| 8697s | about for these two championship caliber |
| 8699s | teams we know what they are both capable |
| 8702s | of playing I think we know what Timeless |
| 8704s | ethereal is going to play and with it |
| 8707s | being nyxl ember's map pick and with |
| 8709s | them being the more Dynamic of the two |
| 8711s | teams that we've seen the ball could not |
| 8713s | be more in their Court they have to slam |
| 8716s | dunk it though cuz they don't get any |
| 8718s | more opportunities at least in this |
| 8719s | series they's still the lower bracket of |
| 8721s | course but if they want to go ahead and |
| 8722s | make this statement really really make |
| 8724s | Timeless aeal hurt for it this is where |
| 8727s | they have to do |
| 8729s | it yeah now that we see that Timeless |
| 8732s | ethereal they like to stick to just the |
| 8735s | sigma composition I mean you said they |
| 8737s | have one of the best sigmas in the biz |
| 8738s | so why would you switch when the ball is |
| 8740s | in your court but now nyxl Embers they |
| 8742s | need to find some way to adapt here and |
| 8745s | I think that just taking the map off |
| 8747s | Timeless ethereal off stream that is |
| 8749s | especially in the manner that they did |
| 8751s | with a full map capture and they were |
| 8753s | also able to ensure that they didn't get |
| 8756s | the full capture had a huge time bank to |
| 8758s | let leave over Midtown seemed so |
| 8761s | favorable for nxl Embers and they're |
| 8763s | taking out a very similar composition |
| 8765s | here coru instead of the bergita is |
| 8767s | going onto the CUO which was really |
| 8769s | clutch in that third Point push from |
| 8771s | Timeless ethereal and X10 going on to |
| 8774s | the Hanzo I I I think the Hanzo pick is |
| 8776s | interesting we see if this sticks I kind |
| 8778s | of expect a couple of swaps here but |
| 8781s | yeah no nyxl Embers they are indeed |
| 8783s | walking out with this okay the Hanzo is |
| 8785s | an interesting pick here I think you're |
| 8786s | playing mostly to try and utilize the |
| 8788s | sight lines contest the enemy sojourn |
| 8790s | try and you know maybe use the Sonic |
| 8792s | arrows and the sheer burst damage you |
| 8794s | can put down to maybe burst down some of |
| 8796s | the May walls but I I I don't know it's |
| 8798s | going to it's going to be interesting |
| 8799s | here we're going to have to see if it |
| 8801s | ends up bearing any fruit here time is |
| 8803s | ethereal actually going to try and take |
| 8804s | a flank angle put the pressure onto X10 |
| 8806s | so they might actually not get any value |
| 8808s | at all with this |
| 8811s | pick immediately you have that anti that |
| 8814s | goes onto sniper it does force them to |
| 8817s | back up a little bit but moving fish is |
| 8819s | really trying to find a way in here |
| 8821s | immediately has to go out and whis that |
| 8822s | rail gun shot finds moving fish and NYL |
| 8825s | Embers that should mean that they lose |
| 8827s | the first capture of this robot and |
| 8829s | indeed they do Timeless etheral forcing |
| 8831s | them back onto that high ground and |
| 8833s | retreating I mean and you have a lot of |
| 8835s | healing on the side of nyxl Embers right |
| 8836s | with this with this Kido anacom but it |
| 8838s | doesn't really amount to much if you |
| 8840s | can't losos your Winston and if he just |
| 8842s | gets bursted down all too quickly so I |
| 8844s | mean you just pressure the enemy |
| 8845s | supports and suddenly this Winston is |
| 8847s | very very vulnerable especially without |
| 8848s | a bubble the jump actually going to be |
| 8850s | forced out as well and with no bubble no |
| 8851s | jump for the time being booing fish is |
| 8853s | just kind of stuck |
| 8855s | here yeah I'm curious that they ever |
| 8857s | break out the doomfist version of this |
| 8860s | dive composition but HQ taking down |
| 8862s | sniper that's an excellent start and now |
| 8865s | they need to find bun alongside it there |
| 8867s | is the immortality field and the anti |
| 8869s | even in the ice block what are you going |
| 8871s | to do M should come out very quickly and |
| 8874s | just go down and that's the power of The |
| 8876s | High Ground right you have X10 and you |
| 8878s | have the supports just up on The High |
| 8879s | Ground with moving fish and H key being |
| 8881s | the pressure on the front line it's so |
| 8883s | difficult for Timeless ethereal to find |
| 8885s | any way to try and crack that and that's |
| 8886s | actually going to force a couple of |
| 8887s | swaps the Tracer might be able to you |
| 8889s | know circumvent around go on a flank |
| 8891s | maybe put a little bit of pressure there |
| 8893s | but you're also going to have to play to |
| 8895s | try and hold this particular High Ground |
| 8896s | here as well and if your nyxl Embers you |
| 8899s | got the Nano you almost have the blade |
| 8900s | you can even put the Nano into moving |
| 8902s | fish you have a way to break this |
| 8904s | hole oh okay and whis just Falls X10 |
| 8908s | hiding behind that little tiny Corner |
| 8910s | the antibiotic nade is so good now the |
| 8913s | anti oh my gosh the immortality field |
| 8915s | comes through the gravitic flux from |
| 8917s | sniper to try and save things but it |
| 8919s | does nothing now Z slowly falling after |
| 8923s | with X10 shots this Hanzo pick is |
| 8925s | excellent so far that that Sigma flux |
| 8928s | there is is just so bad there's like |
| 8930s | again you already lost whips there's no |
| 8932s | follow-up damage I don't know why sniper |
| 8935s | opted to pull the trigger on that one |
| 8936s | but they're definitely going to wish |
| 8937s | that they had that one back cuz nyxl |
| 8939s | Embers have now broken past this High |
| 8941s | Ground hold and have taken up residence |
| 8942s | on the bridge and they did it with only |
| 8944s | a nano which means now they have the |
| 8945s | katsune rush to make even more |
| 8948s | progress yeah boru is just able to get |
| 8951s | so much forward positioning with the |
| 8953s | help of the ksun rush bun is trying to |
| 8954s | get a little bit of extra damage onto |
| 8956s | the curo but kuo is so slippery now with |
| 8959s | the dragon strike forcing even more |
| 8961s | positioning there's no way for them to |
| 8962s | get sight lines onto this bot there is |
| 8965s | basically no contention here they've |
| 8966s | already gotten that first checkpoint and |
| 8968s | now the butt stack does come through so |
| 8970s | wi is given a bit of free reign to do |
| 8972s | their thing and find that damage onto |
| 8974s | anun but okay buns comes in with the |
| 8977s | pick onto H and that flips the point but |
| 8979s | you got the scratch and that's really |
| 8981s | all you need if you're nyxl emers that |
| 8983s | end alone could be a win condition and |
| 8984s | could be the deciding factor because now |
| 8986s | as the bot swings back over nyxl Embers |
| 8989s | will have The High Ground advantage and |
| 8990s | sure time e the will have SS to try and |
| 8992s | contest it but you don't really have |
| 8994s | that like big bang ultimate that like a |
| 8996s | gravitic flux would be you have a pulse |
| 8998s | bomb and you know Bun's lurking she's |
| 9000s | going to be looking for someone to |
| 9001s | attach it to but if it goes wide or if |
| 9003s | it you know doesn't get the right target |
| 9005s | it might not be enough it's going to go |
| 9007s | on to anun it's good all right Timeless |
| 9009s | ethereal they have a way in now can they |
| 9012s | capitalize on this lack of healing on |
| 9014s | the side of nyxl Embers cuz the forward |
| 9016s | pressure is still there |
| 9017s | I mean the cury coast can still output |
| 9020s | that kind of healing into this next |
| 9022s | fight but not quite as much as anun and |
| 9024s | they're really trying to capitalize off |
| 9026s | the anti-at as well so without them it's |
| 9028s | going to be more difficult for NYX |
| 9030s | Embers to follow up and find picks |
| 9031s | there's the gravitic luux now onto a few |
| 9033s | of the players but the suzu is good |
| 9035s | doesn't do any damage and the biotic |
| 9037s | nade comes through as well doesn't quite |
| 9039s | land the purple though as they are |
| 9041s | headed under the bridge this High Ground |
| 9044s | X10 should have free rain over the top |
| 9046s | of it but it seems like they're so far |
| 9049s | they are unable to stop the bot from |
| 9051s | pushing forward never mind they flip it |
| 9053s | over sniper takes down H key so the |
| 9055s | Nano's going to go out onto moving fish |
| 9056s | but with the katun rush as well that |
| 9058s | overhal from Halo that's going to be |
| 9060s | gone and so is sniper n yxl Embers they |
| 9063s | utilize The High Ground Advantage build |
| 9064s | an ult advantage and they take it right |
| 9067s | back nyxl Embers they have that bot in |
| 9071s | their control once again bun looking for |
| 9074s | the damage onto the back line just gets |
| 9076s | punched in the face by for you and has |
| 9078s | to retreat a little bit further while |
| 9080s | wisps is looking for the damage onto |
| 9081s | moving fish but has to power slide right |
| 9083s | out the anti comes in a little late bun |
| 9086s | once again has the pulse bomb and again |
| 9087s | she's going to be looking for anun is |
| 9090s | she going to be able to find I mean |
| 9091s | she's already been pressured out by puu |
| 9092s | a little bit so she's going to have to |
| 9093s | go extremely wide and that's going to |
| 9095s | take time for ESS ethereal to be able to |
| 9097s | go in you know she's going to have to |
| 9098s | just chill out there until they're all |
| 9100s | set up once they're in position to where |
| 9102s | this pulse bomb can actually find Value |
| 9104s | poru is not going to let it poru just |
| 9106s | goes back and use the |
| 9108s | pressure yeah and it just feels like oh |
| 9111s | ESS ethereal that that's a good pick |
| 9113s | onto HQ once again that Dragon Blade not |
| 9115s | finding any kind of value here and |
| 9117s | that's just an ultimate down the drain |
| 9119s | but they still have the brother of the |
| 9120s | Genji as well as a monkey in their |
| 9123s | pocket and that's the Primal Rage to |
| 9124s | find Wiis and sniper just Goomba |
| 9127s | stomping right on top of the sigma's |
| 9129s | head and leading that robot right back |
| 9131s | to their wall and that kind of just |
| 9133s | comes down to PO you being able to |
| 9135s | pressure out bun the pulse bomb that |
| 9136s | comes through in fact the damage can't |
| 9138s | even come through the supports don't |
| 9140s | ever have to worry you know onion can |
| 9142s | sit pretty continue to pocket moving |
| 9143s | fish moving fish can get an even bigger |
| 9145s | value kill in zman and then come through |
| 9148s | with the Primal Rage follow it up |
| 9150s | translate it into a fight win and now |
| 9152s | they can continue on the cart progress |
| 9154s | and honestly nyxl Embers don't have to |
| 9156s | make a lot of progress here and that's |
| 9159s | just as well cuz they're not going to be |
| 9160s | able to without without that poor you H |
| 9163s | key but with a huge P spawn there but |
| 9165s | the bot still has to go so far to even |
| 9167s | match the progress that nyxl Embers |
| 9169s | have yeah buns uh buns pulse bombs have |
| 9172s | been very good this map thus far always |
| 9174s | getting the stick always getting some |
| 9176s | kind of value from it and but in this |
| 9178s | case it really just slows nyxl Embers |
| 9180s | down because on push Maps it's really |
| 9182s | about who's getting that early advantage |
| 9184s | and if you don't have it then you have |
| 9185s | to work twice as hard to try and get a |
| 9188s | win out of it well I mean this this |
| 9191s | Advantage from The High Ground is |
| 9192s | everything right now gravitic flux going |
| 9193s | to be coming out to try and break up and |
| 9195s | moving fishes in the backline pumping |
| 9197s | out the pressure and with the Nano as |
| 9199s | well allowing moving fish to stay for a |
| 9202s | little bit longer there's the anti on to |
| 9204s | whisp as the overclock comes out you |
| 9205s | don't really want to be in with sight |
| 9207s | lines and H key does fall X10 has that |
| 9211s | dragon in the back pocket but moving |
| 9213s | fish going down is going to be tough for |
| 9216s | nyxl Embers to find a good place to eat |
| 9218s | it oh a good sleep though biotic n no no |
| 9221s | followup there Halo however does fall I |
| 9224s | mean and this might actually give |
| 9225s | Timeless ethereal if it might actually |
| 9227s | give nyxl Embers already the opportunity |
| 9228s | to go and contest before the butt |
| 9229s | scratch they do send H ke to do just |
| 9231s | that Dragon strike and the consun rush |
| 9233s | coming out nyxl Embers don't want to |
| 9235s | give this up yeah they do not want to |
| 9238s | allow them to get the point but the butt |
| 9239s | scratch is there they able to take get |
| 9241s | the checkpoint but nyxl Embers |
| 9243s | eventually |
| 9244s | does roll over the rest of time with |
| 9247s | ethereal despite getting a checkpoint |
| 9249s | however the forward spawn is still going |
| 9251s | to see something that they have to worry |
| 9252s | about and even more so the fact that |
| 9255s | that was a very costly hold there they |
| 9257s | don't have a whole lot of bols left to |
| 9258s | try and keep this pressure up we're |
| 9259s | going to something fairly neutral here |
| 9261s | where a Halo sound Bearer or a bun pulse |
| 9263s | bomb can put it all to bed again for you |
| 9266s | has to have you got to have your head on |
| 9267s | a swivel right cuz that that Tracer |
| 9269s | could be lurking anywhere and once she |
| 9271s | has the pulse bomb she is very much so a |
| 9273s | threat one that's going to have Anna's |
| 9275s | name on |
| 9277s | it yeah anun needs to walk their back |
| 9280s | here Halo going around with the sound |
| 9282s | barrier with the beat looking to take |
| 9283s | down for you or to find something on and |
| 9286s | they have two ultimates in the pocket |
| 9288s | but moving fish getting their health |
| 9290s | taken down very quickly might want to |
| 9292s | force out the Primal Rage here and |
| 9294s | Timeless etheral are able to do so now |
| 9296s | without that ultimate but still getting |
| 9298s | a lot of pressure onto this backline |
| 9300s | Halo keeping team up from the back and |
| 9303s | that beat just in case they need an |
| 9305s | ambulance I I really like where she's |
| 9307s | playing because yeah she's holding on to |
| 9308s | that beat and she knows that HQ has that |
| 9310s | blade she has to be ready to pop that |
| 9312s | when H goes in but now that H's been |
| 9313s | dealt with she can hold on to it forever |
| 9316s | yeah anun falling because the gravity |
| 9319s | graviton surge in just a little tiny |
| 9321s | room where they had nowhere to go and |
| 9323s | the team kill for Timeless ethereal they |
| 9325s | are catching up at a break neck Pace |
| 9328s | nyxl Embers they have barely been able |
| 9330s | to push for the last 2 minutes and with |
| 9332s | less than a minute left over and |
| 9334s | Timeless ethereal now able to push past |
| 9337s | progress they are in the lead it's all |
| 9340s | going to come down to this fight nyxl |
| 9341s | Embers they have to win this one and |
| 9343s | then they're going to have to win at |
| 9344s | least another one to try and get it they |
| 9345s | can't lose moving fish early the suzu |
| 9347s | actually gets forced out here ht's going |
| 9349s | to go in with the blade but the beats in |
| 9351s | the response and so is the |
| 9353s | accretion yeah HQ can't deflect The Rock |
| 9356s | apparently and now poru has the kitsun |
| 9358s | rush to perhaps Force this fight forward |
| 9360s | and there's an anti onto a few of the |
| 9362s | players of Timeless material but there |
| 9364s | is no follow up with h ke down and X10 |
| 9368s | they this pick initially had so much |
| 9370s | value but it seems like it seems to be |
| 9372s | falling off without the good angles x 10 |
| 9374s | falling and Bun has that pulse bomb |
| 9376s | looking for a stick fishing for it |
| 9378s | before you does take bun down they need |
| 9381s | the contention the overtime comes into |
| 9383s | play their alts are not in a good state |
| 9386s | right now Timeless ethereal they have |
| 9387s | that pulse bomb but other than that it |
| 9390s | doesn't seem like they have much nyxl |
| 9392s | Embers though they don't have much in |
| 9393s | the back pocket either but with all the |
| 9395s | progress that the bot made Timeless |
| 9396s | etheral have bought themselves at least |
| 9398s | one more potential fight here and this |
| 9400s | one still isn't done so even if they |
| 9401s | lose this one which with the death of |
| 9402s | sniper it looks like they should they |
| 9404s | still have potentially two more fights |
| 9406s | to go it's all up here from here for for |
| 9409s | nyxl Embers they have to be perfect from |
| 9411s | here on out and time is ethereal |
| 9413s | realistically speaking can just build up |
| 9415s | to a big six-man old bank and just hit |
| 9417s | nyxl Embers across the face with it I |
| 9421s | what do you do you're going to have to |
| 9422s | invest the Nano here maybe try and build |
| 9424s | that Primal Rage get some extreme value |
| 9426s | out of the dragons and hope to God that |
| 9428s | you can build to a dragon blade before |
| 9430s | Halo builds up to that sound |
| 9434s | barrier hun has that Nan no it's the |
| 9437s | Primal Rage that moving fish might be |
| 9439s | able to combo with it but bun coming in |
| 9442s | doesn't get the stick though apparently |
| 9443s | misses and Z goes down that's going to |
| 9446s | be a tough one a very tough loss for |
| 9448s | Timeless ethereal as whis Falls as well |
| 9450s | FN being chased down by the monkey here |
| 9453s | while sniper is contesting the point but |
| 9455s | it's just sniper going down to hkey now |
| 9457s | it seems like they have free reign get |
| 9459s | this they're just coming up they need |
| 9461s | the mobility they need a touch to come |
| 9464s | in the Dragon St yeah it could |
| 9468s | completely lock them out they already |
| 9469s | have the immortality field cool down |
| 9471s | there's the dragon strike to come |
| 9472s | through which just shreds through whsp |
| 9474s | and now the doomfist come out they're |
| 9476s | trying to shred the back line X10 does |
| 9478s | fall but still both supports in play and |
| 9481s | they need to find a way to keep this |
| 9482s | doomfist up just weaving in and around |
| 9485s | the wall around this cart they are very |
| 9487s | low but the sleep is so good there is no |
| 9489s | anti follow up but the doomfist doesn't |
| 9491s | have enough to stop anything and with |
| 9494s | the blade to come through NYX LM they |
| 9496s | should be able to push past and they do |
| 9499s | Timeless ethereal they fall just short |
| 9502s | NYX L Embers they are forcing themselves |
| 9505s | through and now a 22 series there wasn't |
| 9508s | enough cart pressure when there needed |
| 9510s | to be I mentioned that you Timeless |
| 9512s | ethereal they had maybe two more fights |
| 9514s | to go but I think that first fight that |
| 9517s | they could have taken they didn't put |
| 9518s | enough they didn't have enough presence |
| 9520s | on the point to try and contest it so so |
| 9522s | much bot progress was made for free for |
| 9524s | nyxl Embers in the last fight ends up |
| 9527s | being a staggered fight one that |
| 9528s | Timeless ethereal actually almost win |
| 9531s | but it comes down to a sleep Dart onto |
| 9533s | sniper if sniper had not been slept in |
| 9536s | that moment there would have been enough |
| 9537s | damage to kill moving fish and |
| 9539s | potentially kill the entire push but |
| 9541s | because of that sleep Dart and because |
| 9543s | the healing was there because moving |
| 9545s | fish lives and the pressure goes forward |
| 9547s | you build enough time for X10 to pop |
| 9550s | that dragon blade or sorry for HQ to pop |
| 9552s | that Dragon Blade you build up enough |
| 9554s | time for the rest of the team to a |
| 9556s | coales and just brute force it that last |
| 9559s | couple of meters through and nyxl Embers |
| 9561s | on their map pick they do it they take |
| 9564s | us to a map five it was so slim they're |
| 9568s | just basically flying by the seat of |
| 9570s | their pants at this point now Timeless |
| 9572s | ethereal they have the advantage in |
| 9574s | picking the map that we go to here on |
| 9576s | escort it's between shambali monaster |
| 9579s | and Route 66 and I think both of those |
| 9581s | can play into the sigma well maybe not |
| 9584s | as much as a dive but the upward |
| 9585s | Mobility |
| 9586s | can definitely be helpful on any map |
| 9588s | here I just think that this is such a |
| 9591s | good series and nyxl Embers the switch |
| 9594s | on to the CUO really was interesting |
| 9596s | because I think it was really for that |
| 9598s | gravon Surge and ensuring that there |
| 9600s | wasn't Damage Done when they were just |
| 9602s | slammed back into the ground but and you |
| 9604s | as well Landing so many crucial sleeps |
| 9606s | when it really mattered and that's the |
| 9608s | mark of a great Flex support player |
| 9610s | right is not just being able to like hit |
| 9612s | hit a number of sleeps it's when you're |
| 9614s | hitting those big sleeps it's when |
| 9615s | you're hitting those big it's is in the |
| 9617s | moments that swing fights and again that |
| 9619s | sleep Dart onto sniper that swung the |
| 9621s | fight right there it was already very |
| 9622s | much in nyxl ember's favor Timeless |
| 9625s | ethereal almost snatched it but anun |
| 9627s | sing almost single-handedly snatched it |
| 9629s | right back I say almost single-handedly |
| 9631s | because everybody on the side of nyxl |
| 9633s | Embers is playing phenomenally and if |
| 9635s | that weren't the case we would not be in |
| 9636s | the situation where we are in now where |
| 9638s | we are going to see our first map five |
| 9640s | we're gonna see escort for the first |
| 9641s | time in this tournament and |
| 9643s | realistically it could go anybody's way |
| 9646s | I kind of feel like you know if you're |
| 9647s | Timeless ethereal you want to play |
| 9648s | shambali Monastery because it's a little |
| 9650s | bit less dive friendly and you kind of |
| 9652s | feel like you have the at the advantage |
| 9654s | in that Sigma mirror but as the maps all |
| 9656s | pop up one by one down here at the lower |
| 9659s | part of the screen all the the tension's |
| 9662s | killing me what did they choose what is |
| 9664s | the map pick here we are just being drum |
| 9668s | roll please like just at the very end |
| 9670s | let's see it Route 66 66 interesting I |
| 9675s | mean okay so 66 a lot of people have |
| 9677s | still been leaning heavily into the |
| 9678s | sigma composition but I feel like the |
| 9681s | streets phase of that one does play very |
| 9683s | well into a Winston composition here the |
| 9685s | third point though is going to be |
| 9687s | heavily heavily Sigma favored so like I |
| 9691s | don't really know I don't know what this |
| 9692s | means I I think it's I I don't think |
| 9695s | it's a bad pick I don't think either of |
| 9696s | them would have been a bad pick but this |
| 9698s | kind of does make me question like what |
| 9700s | are they cooking over on the Timeless |
| 9702s | side yeah I mean I think they want to |
| 9706s | stick to their guns bun has found value |
| 9708s | on the Tracer but I feel like every time |
| 9710s | we've seen bun switch over to the Tracer |
| 9712s | they've lost because we saw the Tracer |
| 9715s | on Midtown we saw the Tracer on uh |
| 9718s | coloso and on both of those times they |
| 9721s | found value with it I mean they were |
| 9723s | able to also back cap a few times as |
| 9725s | well and that allowed a little bit more |
| 9729s | um a little bit more wiggle room over on |
| 9731s | Midtown but other than that I feel like |
| 9733s | they've lost but that could also be |
| 9735s | lending to the fact that nyxl Embers |
| 9738s | know what they're doing when they pick |
| 9739s | these Maps I well I it was it was |
| 9742s | Timeless ethereals map pick here just |
| 9743s | nyxl Embers I mean well I mean you do |
| 9746s | bring up a good point like do they know |
| 9747s | what they're doing on this map cuz I |
| 9749s | don't even know if I know what they're |
| 9750s | doing on this map I feel like you know |
| 9752s | first couple points on the attacker side |
| 9754s | you do maybe want to go for that dive |
| 9755s | composition but what does po you play do |
| 9757s | we play the bits to try and protect our |
| 9759s | Anna or are we getting more value out of |
| 9760s | the Kido it feels kind of like you know |
| 9763s | we're we're leaning more into that Kiko |
| 9765s | for now at least it feels like that's |
| 9767s | what they're getting a little bit more |
| 9768s | value out of but is that what going to |
| 9770s | be what sticks uh one thing that's not |
| 9772s | sticking is uh sniper is not sticking |
| 9774s | around to see the end of this map up uh |
| 9775s | this match here sniper is actually going |
| 9777s | to be swapped out for sa Hill and I |
| 9779s | think that kind of tells me what I need |
| 9781s | to know here cuz sa Hill is more of |
| 9784s | their main tank player you you sub sa |
| 9786s | Hill in to play like the doomfist or to |
| 9788s | play the uh to play the Winston so I |
| 9790s | think and I like don't quote me on this |
| 9793s | but I think this means that Timeless |
| 9794s | ethereal want to match Dives what are |
| 9798s | they cooking and I mean if it's the |
| 9800s | doomfist or the Winston we talked a |
| 9803s | little bit about the Winston and the |
| 9804s | doomfist matchup and how Winston can |
| 9806s | kind of bubble your supports to protect |
| 9808s | from the dive and just shred through |
| 9809s | that doomfist but if it's Winston |
| 9812s | matchup then I think is really on the |
| 9813s | DPS is you see hkey playing a lot of the |
| 9816s | Genji does whis switch onto the Genji |
| 9819s | does buns play the Genji or some other |
| 9822s | dive Centric hero I feel like bun might |
| 9824s | be playing on the Tracer I I I do also |
| 9826s | think by the way that if you do have ESS |
| 9828s | a the you'll go onto a dive composition |
| 9830s | or you can't really play the Kido |
| 9832s | anymore I think you kind of need to have |
| 9834s | you know your other support be playing |
| 9836s | the Bita to try and protect anun because |
| 9838s | you need to keep your Anna alive because |
| 9839s | your Anna needs to keep your tank alive |
| 9841s | because your tank needs to keep the |
| 9842s | whole damn fight alive and if you can't |
| 9844s | do any of those steps if if the wheels |
| 9846s | fall off anywhere you end up blowing the |
| 9848s | whole fight there you can't be having |
| 9850s | that so this might be just trying to |
| 9851s | force them off the kico it might be |
| 9853s | because this is just what they've |
| 9854s | practiced on this map who knows if it's |
| 9857s | just they feel more confident with saw |
| 9859s | Hill coming in I have my concerns though |
| 9862s | about you know a map five sub I I I I |
| 9864s | feel like this does put a lot of |
| 9866s | pressure on to saw Hill to perform to |
| 9868s | show why we're seeing this swap happen |
| 9870s | what is the justification again yeah |
| 9872s | what what are they cooking on the |
| 9873s | Timeless ethereal side and if you like |
| 9876s | you you have to perform right you have |
| 9877s | to close it out here that's a lot of |
| 9879s | pressure how is saw Hill going to tackle |
| 9881s | that |
| 9882s | pressure yeah and it's also the fact |
| 9884s | that who is going to start on the |
| 9886s | defense because if you have nyxl Embers |
| 9888s | starting on the defense and they decide |
| 9890s | to come out the bat with the CUO it's |
| 9892s | going to be a lot harder for them to go |
| 9895s | around and switch back to the Bita if |
| 9896s | they see a dive composition coming out |
| 9899s | would you believe that even after this |
| 9900s | map we still have two more matches to |
| 9902s | play today would you would you believe |
| 9904s | that I I mean it's not going to be us |
| 9906s | we're going to we're going to you know |
| 9907s | send it over to another another casting |
| 9909s | Duo foreshadowing but I mean you know |
| 9911s | for those of us in the chat and those of |
| 9913s | us who love to see some good OverWatch |
| 9914s | we're being we're being spoiled by this |
| 9916s | series and the fact that there are two |
| 9918s | more Banger games that could potentially |
| 9920s | be coming up right after this one we |
| 9922s | have a lot of unanswered questions and |
| 9925s | as we get even deeper into the |
| 9926s | tournament even if we get the answers to |
| 9928s | some of those questions we might end up |
| 9930s | with more questions down the line you |
| 9932s | know imagine a world where nyxl Embers |
| 9935s | do in fact take this what does that say |
| 9937s | about Timeless ethereal dropping two SE |
| 9939s | or dropping to two different teams you |
| 9941s | know they they go from being potentially |
| 9943s | the the top the top team to maybe |
| 9945s | falling to number three does someone |
| 9947s | overtake them in the circuit points does |
| 9949s | does somebody is will there be a new |
| 9952s | king yeah the I mean dominance is a |
| 9954s | blessing and a curse because the more |
| 9956s | dominant are you are the more maps you |
| 9958s | play the more VOD review material there |
| 9960s | is you can pick out what each player's |
| 9962s | weaknesses are you can pick out their |
| 9964s | patterns what they like to do and then |
| 9966s | it becomes easier to figure out ways to |
| 9968s | find cracks in the armor to counter them |
| 9970s | and I think that uh you are seeing a lot |
| 9973s | of that from Timeless as well because |
| 9975s | they have sucked together for such a |
| 9977s | long time and because they have so much |
| 9979s | material on what their strategies are |
| 9982s | how they like to play and this meta the |
| 9984s | sigma meta they are trying to it plays |
| 9986s | into their hands because they have such |
| 9988s | good players that lend itself to this |
| 9990s | kind of to this play style but they are |
| 9994s | still getting beat by a dive you do |
| 9997s | mention like yeah they they have a lot |
| 9998s | of tools in their toolbox du Timeless |
| 10000s | ethereal and you know I I'll go ahead |
| 10002s | and acknowledge the elephant in the room |
| 10003s | chat that was a very long pause we were |
| 10005s | kind of waiting for a ready up I imagine |
| 10007s | you know Timeless ethereal were going |
| 10008s | through all of their tools trying to see |
| 10010s | exactly what was going to be the best |
| 10012s | fit discussing some strategy discussing |
| 10013s | all of their uh all the various things |
| 10015s | that they can play if you're putting saw |
| 10017s | Hill in for this last this last Point |
| 10019s | here you want to make sure everybody is |
| 10021s | on board with the plan because there are |
| 10023s | going to be no doovers there are going |
| 10025s | to be no Second Chances up here in the |
| 10028s | upper bracket it's either win or you go |
| 10030s | down to the lower bracket and you don't |
| 10033s | want to have your back up against the |
| 10034s | wall trying to make a trying to make a |
| 10036s | lower bracket run just to get yourself |
| 10037s | back to the finals just to get yourself |
| 10038s | the Champs when you are a team as as |
| 10041s | historically dominant as Timeless |
| 10043s | ethereal yeah nyxl Embers so they're |
| 10045s | starting on the defense and they're |
| 10047s | coming out with a CUO and this is |
| 10048s | something we mentioned if saw Hill's |
| 10050s | playing the Winston if what we're being |
| 10051s | teased right now by Timeless ethereal is |
| 10053s | what they're actually playing then it's |
| 10055s | going to be really difficult for Anan to |
| 10057s | stay alive and poru really needs to find |
| 10059s | some ways to peel for anun as soon as |
| 10061s | that dive comes through especially with |
| 10063s | the echo to be able to come over top and |
| 10065s | follow up so well it does appear though |
| 10067s | that I was correct you know subbing saw |
| 10069s | Hill in does mean that they are going to |
| 10071s | mirror the Winston but how much practice |
| 10073s | has Timeless ethereal gotten on this |
| 10074s | composition because I only know of a |
| 10076s | couple of teams that have occasionally |
| 10078s | busted this Wiston composition out one |
| 10080s | of them being and yxl Embers the other |
| 10083s | we have yet to see you know busted out |
| 10084s | on the stage too too much how are ESS |
| 10087s | ethero going to play this well I mean to |
| 10089s | start off with not very well well saw |
| 10091s | Hill going down early is definitely |
| 10093s | devastating blow but you know four |
| 10095s | minutes for that four point captured |
| 10097s | they're just getting into the swing of |
| 10098s | things they're breaking into the shoes |
| 10100s | and honestly it when all is said and all |
| 10102s | is done OverWatch fans are being fed |
| 10105s | well today both by Chipotle and this |
| 10107s | series now the anti onto saw Hill to try |
| 10109s | and get things started not quite a pick |
| 10111s | this time around so he'll knows to |
| 10113s | retreat but otherwise very well done |
| 10116s | that's a great Whip Shop there onto Halo |
| 10118s | though there was a sleep from anun that |
| 10119s | came out onto saw Hill to try and keep |
| 10120s | herself alive but I mean while she was |
| 10122s | looking that way no one was looking at |
| 10123s | hkey that whip shot cleans it up up and |
| 10125s | ESS ethereal that's their way in they |
| 10127s | can start to try and make a little bit |
| 10129s | more progress here they're taking some |
| 10131s | Ford presence here trying to capture big |
| 10133s | Earls for themselves but the cart is |
| 10134s | going to be moving slowly I believe not |
| 10136s | even around that first Corner yet |
| 10137s | actually just now rounding it saw Hill |
| 10139s | gets hit with a bigade has to pop the |
| 10141s | bubble just to stay |
| 10142s | alive yeah and now backing up regrouping |
| 10145s | with the supports for a little bit of |
| 10146s | that extra sustain and now knocking whsp |
| 10150s | off The High Ground as well there's a |
| 10152s | lot of High Ground Control from this |
| 10153s | Timeless ethereal Squad with the bun and |
| 10156s | Wiis combo and X10 might have a little |
| 10158s | bit more trouble dealing with the flyer |
| 10160s | and the echo I mean but we're seeing the |
| 10163s | the advantage of playing as far forward |
| 10164s | as nyxl Embers did they're going to go |
| 10166s | ahead and get that early that early |
| 10168s | second contest there but with the nanab |
| 10170s | Boost onto saw Hill oh all right yeah no |
| 10173s | that's a huge nade that just denies that |
| 10175s | entire ult right there and you can see |
| 10177s | nyxl Ember just continuing to charge |
| 10178s | forward they know they have the ball in |
| 10180s | their Court the early pick off and all |
| 10181s | the pressure yeah I mean z completely |
| 10184s | loses out on that boost saw Hill can't |
| 10186s | build up to the Primal Rage nyxl Embers |
| 10189s | completely dry without expending a |
| 10191s | single ultimate have still held the the |
| 10193s | the cart here around this first Corner |
| 10195s | time as ethereal just can't seem to find |
| 10197s | a way in there don't appear to be any |
| 10199s | cracks in nyxl ember's armor right now |
| 10202s | yeah the I mean the Sleep anti combo |
| 10204s | from anun Saw Hill there was really |
| 10206s | nothing to be done there and then just |
| 10208s | shredded chased down by moving fish now |
| 10210s | starting the dive once again but it's |
| 10211s | not started off the back of the Nano |
| 10213s | it's just saw Hill going in dry with the |
| 10215s | now you see the Nano has gone onto Z but |
| 10218s | it's moving fish with right clicks that |
| 10220s | finds whsp and knocks them off The High |
| 10222s | Ground 99% to be overclocked by the way |
| 10224s | so this fight is not looking to be a |
| 10226s | great one saw hill using that Primal |
| 10229s | Rage to try and keep themselves alive |
| 10231s | and still charging onto moving fish but |
| 10233s | now the regroup comes through however |
| 10235s | they are able to save off the pressure |
| 10237s | and they have to back off I mean the |
| 10239s | fight's not quite over yet but I want to |
| 10240s | give props the moving fish who had so |
| 10242s | much faith in their supports that they |
| 10243s | knew that once that anti-heal wore off |
| 10245s | that they would get the healing they |
| 10246s | needed to stay alive it wasn't quite |
| 10248s | enough because the pressure from the |
| 10250s | duplicate and from Saw Hill's Primal |
| 10252s | Rage coming out from times ethereal is |
| 10253s | going to keep pushing the cart forward |
| 10255s | nyxl Embers it looks like they do have |
| 10257s | hkey in position to go for a contest so |
| 10259s | they might be able to go for it here oh |
| 10261s | is she going to get pressured out she |
| 10262s | does get the touch but is she going to |
| 10264s | stay alive for long no the bubble comes |
| 10267s | in just a second too late whis this able |
| 10269s | to shred through hq's health and now |
| 10271s | anion has to find a way to stay alive |
| 10273s | but after missing that sleep it's not |
| 10276s | going to be in the cars however sleep |
| 10279s | onto sleep onto saw Hill instead but |
| 10282s | Halo with a Whip Shop on to X10 they are |
| 10284s | able to get the T now the hold might not |
| 10286s | be in the cards and in fact the entire |
| 10287s | house of cards seems to have crumbled |
| 10289s | cuz nyxl Embers they invested a lot into |
| 10291s | that fight and that's a late kill onto |
| 10293s | moving fish right there look at all the |
| 10294s | positioning that Timeless ethereal can |
| 10296s | take essentially for free without that |
| 10298s | other monkey trying to trying to keep it |
| 10300s | for themselves you know they're going to |
| 10301s | be able to take this High Ground on top |
| 10303s | of the saloon have sights over this |
| 10305s | choke you can even set zman up over on |
| 10307s | the far left side up on The High Ground |
| 10309s | to go for a big setup when nyxl Embers |
| 10311s | inevitably come through this little |
| 10313s | Tunnel right here and the emers only |
| 10315s | have this dragon blade from from H ke |
| 10318s | how does she go in on this especially |
| 10319s | when you have a rally and a nano and |
| 10321s | everything you can ever want on the |
| 10322s | other side except for a tank to hold it |
| 10324s | all together yeah I mean this Echo is |
| 10328s | doing a lot of damage from over top but |
| 10330s | without the sustain onto saw Hill whisp |
| 10332s | however taking out the overlock is just |
| 10334s | going to make up for lost time with his |
| 10336s | rail gun xan where are you supposed to |
| 10339s | go eeko being the bane of existence of |
| 10341s | basically everyone but especially the |
| 10342s | tanks with the help of the focusing fire |
| 10345s | and just shredding through the purple |
| 10346s | health I the good news is because you |
| 10348s | kill sill there you do Force Timeless |
| 10350s | with eal to expend a couple ults you |
| 10351s | know no longer having that overclock no |
| 10353s | longer having that Nano but they still |
| 10355s | have plenty I mean it it's pretty even |
| 10357s | match now you're going to want to look |
| 10359s | to try and make some value out of this |
| 10360s | nanoade if you can even find a way in |
| 10362s | moving fish has to go in for the touch |
| 10364s | but already just melted down yeah it's |
| 10367s | that focusing fire once again now using |
| 10370s | the Dragon Blade to come through Z does |
| 10372s | go down immediately a little bit stunned |
| 10374s | by The Shield bash but HQ after finding |
| 10376s | Z should be able to get a lot of |
| 10378s | pressure for nyxl Embers for you now |
| 10381s | headed up with the brigita it's going to |
| 10383s | be Bun's own dragon blade but it is |
| 10385s | immediately pressured out with the whip |
| 10388s | shots from the from po you and able to |
| 10391s | back them off of the objective so so |
| 10393s | moving fish does kind of like aneous |
| 10395s | combust there as soon as they touch the |
| 10396s | point but they buy just enough time to |
| 10398s | get that nanoade off and they get the |
| 10399s | only kill that matters and that's the |
| 10401s | one onto the Anna no more ability to |
| 10403s | sustain the entire fight and even though |
| 10405s | you know the rest of it gets kind of |
| 10406s | grief The Shield bash comes through to |
| 10407s | stop the bleeding a little bit from time |
| 10409s | ethereal they already had lost a crucial |
| 10411s | Limb and now nyxl Embers they've got |
| 10413s | their heals dug in we're under a minute |
| 10416s | they can try and stagger this out X10 |
| 10418s | has a pulse bomb where's it going to go |
| 10421s | oh looking for the brigita but has to go |
| 10423s | up onto the other High ground retreating |
| 10426s | with all the health that goes down and H |
| 10428s | key also falling and that's just going |
| 10429s | to be Domino's for nyxl Embers Timeless |
| 10432s | theal they topple them they're able to |
| 10434s | get that final point and now like you |
| 10436s | said this is a sigma Centric point but |
| 10439s | it seems like both of them are going to |
| 10440s | stick to the dive here I I I think with |
| 10442s | that pulse Spa that uh that X10 had |
| 10444s | there you kind of needed to get either |
| 10446s | Halo or Z out of the picture there but |
| 10447s | they blink in see Halo with the shield |
| 10449s | up just have the fear of God put in them |
| 10451s | and have to recall out they end up |
| 10453s | sticking it on top the saw Hill it |
| 10454s | doesn't really work out cuz it just |
| 10456s | doesn't do nearly enough damage and |
| 10458s | Timeless ethereal they have the damage |
| 10460s | you know they got all the damage they |
| 10461s | could ever want they get to keep their |
| 10462s | supports alive Zill is getting pretty |
| 10465s | close to death there X10 cleans it |
| 10467s | up yeah and now whis being pressured off |
| 10470s | The High Ground but anion going down |
| 10471s | early is devastating for nyxl Emperor's |
| 10474s | hold they have the Nano in the Timeless |
| 10476s | Cals tool kit but X10 does take down |
| 10479s | Halo it stalls out their push a little |
| 10481s | bit more more as Sal pill is attempting |
| 10484s | to get get back in position onto the |
| 10486s | payload moving fish dancing around and |
| 10488s | has to regroup with the supports and now |
| 10490s | the overclock ready for whisp I like the |
| 10493s | the Hanzo swap from X10 the one shot |
| 10495s | potential is definitely going to make |
| 10496s | Timeless ethereal sweat but you know |
| 10498s | they can wipe that sweat off their brow |
| 10499s | and flick it right back in the direction |
| 10501s | of nyxl Embers the Nano overclock going |
| 10503s | to come out going to force out the |
| 10505s | Primal Rage from moving fish and moving |
| 10507s | fish going to move zman away from the |
| 10509s | fight |
| 10510s | entirely yeah overclock does trade X10 |
| 10513s | but I mean you really want that support |
| 10515s | in this fight now pressuring a lot with |
| 10517s | the Tesla Cannon moving fish eventually |
| 10519s | does fall however bun from overhead now |
| 10521s | using the duplicate into the Genji and |
| 10524s | almost getting the blade but not quite |
| 10526s | it's a bit of force positioning from the |
| 10528s | dragon but with the rally they're able |
| 10530s | to get that full capture nyxl Embers |
| 10533s | they were just too staggered in that |
| 10535s | last fight so much Focus from moving |
| 10536s | fish onto the support onto zman to try |
| 10539s | and get them out of the fight but in the |
| 10541s | end of the day the rest of the team was |
| 10543s | just getting pressured and toppled and |
| 10546s | let's talk about moving fish right cuz I |
| 10548s | mentioned that late stagger onto moving |
| 10550s | fish after Timeless ethereal had |
| 10551s | captured the first point there I think |
| 10553s | the snowball that came out from that was |
| 10555s | what ended up you know essentially |
| 10558s | screwing nyxl Embers over because they |
| 10560s | never really felt like they were in |
| 10561s | control of point B that's where if |
| 10563s | you're playing a dive comp you want to |
| 10565s | have the advantage but they just never |
| 10567s | seemed to get it they never had the |
| 10569s | space to operate with and the one you |
| 10571s | know couple fights that they did they |
| 10573s | had to win it off of old and the old |
| 10575s | cycling for the side of Timeless |
| 10576s | ethereal was just better top to bottom |
| 10578s | they never invested more than they had |
| 10579s | to and they always had something to go |
| 10582s | for the next fight whether it was a win |
| 10583s | whether it was a loss there was always |
| 10585s | going to be a plan B whereas nyxl Embers |
| 10588s | they were already operating on plan Z |
| 10591s | they just kind of run out of options at |
| 10592s | that point in time right like and the |
| 10594s | fact that Timeless ethereal cap at all |
| 10596s | on escort is massive that gets really |
| 10598s | scary for nyxl emers because it means if |
| 10600s | they want to win this series which you |
| 10603s | know theyve put in so much work to put |
| 10604s | put themselves in the position to win if |
| 10606s | they want to win this series it's got to |
| 10608s | go to extra endings and even that isn't |
| 10610s | a |
| 10612s | guarantee yeah 25 seconds left over for |
| 10615s | Timeless ethereal no adjustments just |
| 10618s | yet from either |
| 10620s | side I mean this Echo feels like it's |
| 10623s | been a problem thus far for Timeless |
| 10625s | atherial but XM taken down whp I guess |
| 10628s | no problem no sweat we're just going to |
| 10630s | wipe off the brow and clean off whatever |
| 10633s | happened in that last round start over |
| 10635s | good first pick and sill gets uh the |
| 10638s | health pretty low bun from overhead |
| 10640s | though once again X10 going down anion's |
| 10643s | going to be the one that deals with the |
| 10644s | echo overhead while moving fish is |
| 10646s | trying to pressure out the sports from |
| 10648s | getting the sa onto sill and something |
| 10651s | interesting by the way is that Timeless |
| 10652s | ethereal didn't go for the spawn hold so |
| 10654s | while this fight is going they have to |
| 10656s | try and win it here and you know NY lers |
| 10659s | get all this cart progress essentially |
| 10660s | for free even though they don't win the |
| 10662s | fight yeah they're going to back out |
| 10663s | vacate the premises entirely but they |
| 10665s | essentially got where you know it took |
| 10667s | time ethereal like a full minute to even |
| 10669s | get to bun falling to x 10 once again |
| 10673s | saw Hill just dancing around the corner |
| 10675s | and the cart is going to go backwards a |
| 10678s | little bit but nyxl Embers they're here |
| 10680s | for the re-engage they're trying to |
| 10682s | shred through the health of moving fish |
| 10684s | and actually not doing much here as H ke |
| 10686s | comes in just in time now theano onto |
| 10689s | saw Hill as the Primal Rage comes |
| 10690s | through zman finds pooru and anion is |
| 10693s | left pretty V able because of it but |
| 10695s | just one support is enough for them saw |
| 10697s | Hill doesn't get too greedy until the |
| 10699s | Primal Rage comes up and Yun has nowhere |
| 10702s | to go and x0 just gets stomped on and |
| 10706s | that's just coming down to some good |
| 10707s | oldfashioned Blue Collar support play |
| 10709s | from Z it's not it ain't much but it's |
| 10711s | honest work you just continue to hang |
| 10713s | back stay alive pumping the heels onto |
| 10715s | your Winston and hey ho what do you know |
| 10717s | suddenly we get the first Nano boost we |
| 10719s | go in with that we build up the first |
| 10720s | Primal we convert that into our first |
| 10722s | fight win excellent play from Z but nyxl |
| 10724s | ERS weren't forced to mash the Q buttons |
| 10726s | just yet they're going to have something |
| 10728s | to say about this one and it might just |
| 10729s | be a nano winon of their own or maybe if |
| 10731s | they play slow and Nano |
| 10734s | blade bun already having duplicate on |
| 10737s | the other side but not much more than |
| 10739s | that using the dragon to contest The |
| 10741s | High Ground as H ke goes up the blade |
| 10744s | almost ready but the duplicate |
| 10746s | immediately going through now |
| 10747s | duplicating the Anna bun takes down |
| 10749s | anion and they have to rely on the rally |
| 10751s | which has been mashing the Q keys to get |
| 10753s | them through and there's the Primal Rage |
| 10756s | as well finding zman and finally Halo |
| 10759s | falling now they should be able to get |
| 10761s | the capture there's so much pressure |
| 10763s | that they put in down onto anun just to |
| 10764s | try and get her out of the picture and |
| 10766s | sure they do and she's not even able to |
| 10767s | pop the Nano but they you know they sent |
| 10769s | saw Hill all the way in with the bubble |
| 10771s | on top they sent bun in to use the |
| 10773s | duplicate just to try and get that |
| 10774s | pressure out even just to avoid the |
| 10775s | Sleep Dart that came out and it was all |
| 10777s | for not because at the end of the day |
| 10779s | their backline was the one that was |
| 10781s | truly suffering and you know NYL Embers |
| 10783s | they capitalized moving fish is getting |
| 10784s | caught out in an island here though |
| 10786s | they're just going to get melted there |
| 10787s | that's a little bit of a feed there |
| 10789s | nanoade going to come out though |
| 10792s | nanoblade finding Halo looking for more |
| 10795s | finding Dem oh the SE fle sleep we love |
| 10798s | those plays we love to see them every |
| 10800s | single time and yep climbing up you're |
| 10802s | in danger Anna I don't have anywhere to |
| 10804s | go and they're able to topple them over |
| 10807s | despite moving fish having that early |
| 10808s | stagger pick now nyxl Embers they have a |
| 10811s | good momentum moving forward but not a |
| 10814s | lot of Al in the bank Timeless ethereal |
| 10816s | on the other side they've got two and |
| 10818s | they seem to be building up halo swaps |
| 10821s | off I mean she did use the she did use |
| 10823s | the rally she swaps to the Lucio I think |
| 10824s | to maybe try and get back to the fight |
| 10825s | quickly but she's going to swap back |
| 10827s | over onto the briza here early Dragon |
| 10829s | strike going to come out from X10 that's |
| 10831s | going to lock the rest of time with in |
| 10833s | that little Cavern there and saw Hill is |
| 10835s | suddenly on an island by themselves now |
| 10837s | yeah saw Hill doesn't really have places |
| 10839s | to go but whis taking down anion an HP |
| 10842s | just going to follow sahill with a |
| 10844s | really nice start and the overclock |
| 10846s | finish things off and Timeless ethereal |
| 10848s | they are able to team kill and and again |
| 10851s | that just kind of comes down to having |
| 10852s | faith in your supports having faith in |
| 10853s | your team to back you up as soon as it |
| 10855s | all as soon as the doors open as soon as |
| 10858s | we don't no longer have to worry about |
| 10859s | that Dragon strike just erasing us from |
| 10862s | existence once we can come out of that |
| 10863s | Cavern to support our Winston hey saw |
| 10865s | Hills got the Primal Rage now they were |
| 10867s | able to live long enough bleed out some |
| 10869s | of the ult from nyxl Embers and take a |
| 10871s | forward position here where nyxl Embers |
| 10873s | are going to struggle to even get their |
| 10874s | hands on the cart again yeah sill has to |
| 10877s | retreat however after the anti goes |
| 10880s | through the bu will now down and FN with |
| 10882s | a second Winston on the map x 10 goes |
| 10885s | down Anan how are you going to survive |
| 10887s | this one has the anti to come through |
| 10889s | from Zan in the back line and Bun now |
| 10891s | with the Primal Rage it is just |
| 10894s | excellent Al cycling from time with |
| 10896s | etherial two ultimates used and a |
| 10898s | decisive Fight Win under two minutes |
| 10901s | left over and and more importantly they |
| 10903s | kill P you before the of the rally ends |
| 10904s | up becoming a factor as well so I mean |
| 10906s | time the theal their old bank is looking |
| 10908s | pretty dry right now but they're still |
| 10910s | able to buy time off the clock get a |
| 10911s | Fight Win there because they take that |
| 10913s | potentially fight winning defensive |
| 10914s | ultimate off the field now though as it |
| 10917s | starts to mount up for nyxl Embers when |
| 10919s | anun build this Nano boost what's the |
| 10921s | response going to be never mind just a |
| 10923s | big nade and all the follow up the |
| 10925s | sticky bombs no response needed we're |
| 10927s | not even to give you a chance to get a |
| 10928s | word in edge rise as a matter of fact |
| 10930s | yeah bun has been a problem for yl |
| 10934s | Embers on this Echo thus far on Route 66 |
| 10937s | I mean that first point was pretty |
| 10939s | Speedy but now the second one and it's |
| 10941s | starting to get really dicey moving fish |
| 10943s | taken down with 2% left to build up to |
| 10945s | the Primal Rage it might be time for |
| 10947s | nyxl Embers to smash Q buttons but oh |
| 10950s | nice from that could be a really really |
| 10952s | big pickoff there especially with nyxl |
| 10954s | Embers about to have five ultimates but |
| 10955s | Timeless ethereal have bought themselves |
| 10957s | time to catch up they're going to have |
| 10958s | an overclock a nano and a rally suit of |
| 10960s | their own so NYL Embers have to act fast |
| 10963s | they have to try and smash that q key |
| 10965s | right the heck now or try and get |
| 10967s | another pickoff here Nano going to come |
| 10969s | out onto HQ but she doesn't quite have |
| 10970s | the blade yet now she does but the rally |
| 10972s | is there still able to take down one at |
| 10976s | the very least Z does fall bun as well |
| 10980s | right after the rally does come through |
| 10981s | to keep Halo themselves alive and find |
| 10984s | HP but now with the anti it should be a |
| 10986s | team kill a little bit staggered from |
| 10989s | Timeless theal as they pick up the |
| 10991s | second Point coru still Diamond hands on |
| 10994s | that rally it hasn't been forced out yet |
| 10996s | the Nano rally was forced out just to |
| 10998s | try and keep the backline alive through |
| 11000s | that nanoade but it wasn't enough Halo |
| 11002s | once again swapping over to Lucio and |
| 11004s | then back over onto the Bita I I think |
| 11007s | she's feeling like you know she trying |
| 11008s | kind of has to make a play right now |
| 11010s | she's trying to make these swaps because |
| 11012s | she feels a little bit behind the |
| 11013s | eightball nyxl Embers are starting to |
| 11015s | melt the pressure they still have some |
| 11016s | ult they can clear some space with this |
| 11017s | Dragon strike if they decide to go for |
| 11019s | but the nade might just shut it down |
| 11022s | yeah the anti completely shut down that |
| 11024s | push and was able to take down so much |
| 11026s | of the back line an un following with |
| 11028s | the overclock and now they're building |
| 11030s | up to the Primal as well as the |
| 11032s | duplicate Timeless Imperial they are |
| 11034s | being very disciplined with the way |
| 11035s | they're using these ultimates and it's |
| 11038s | only one minute left for nyxl Embers to |
| 11040s | try and cap here and this is so so |
| 11042s | difficult especially with the dive |
| 11043s | composition CU it's very narrow you're |
| 11045s | not really going to get an opportunity |
| 11046s | to contest High Ground very very well |
| 11048s | that said times ethereal they already |
| 11050s | hold The High Ground they can jump right |
| 11051s | on top of them and they're going to do |
| 11053s | just that coming right on top of the |
| 11054s | backline and you under so much pressure |
| 11056s | but she lives yes saw Hill just |
| 11059s | overextended and completely shredded |
| 11061s | through that huge health bar bun forced |
| 11063s | out and X10 taken down the echo now able |
| 11066s | to get the cart progress anti should be |
| 11069s | doing a lot but X10 stays alive through |
| 11071s | it all whis going over the top with the |
| 11073s | power slide but the whip shot |
| 11075s | neutralizes And Trades Back Revenge for |
| 11077s | x0 getting shredded by that sojourn now |
| 11080s | with only under 20 seconds left over |
| 11084s | this is going to be an overtime push |
| 11085s | this is so difficult for nxl Embers |
| 11088s | that's a great little micro play there |
| 11090s | from whs to go for the power slide there |
| 11091s | take out X10 forcing the swap onto the |
| 11093s | Widowmaker and even dying on cart just |
| 11095s | to get that extra little bit of meterage |
| 11097s | in nyxl ember's favors the overtime Wick |
| 11099s | is about to come up and with a Reaper on |
| 11101s | the field now moving fish might not be |
| 11103s | able to build up to anything |
| 11105s | substantial yeah this is the blade now |
| 11108s | coming out from HQ looking for a pick |
| 11110s | but doesn't find anything just here to |
| 11112s | contest the cart and WRA around and now |
| 11114s | you know the reaper is coming through b |
| 11116s | that doesn't have an ultimate but saw |
| 11118s | Hill is just jumping onto X and Diving |
| 11120s | onto that Widow that overtime Fades away |
| 11123s | Timeless ethereal they are able to get |
| 11127s | nyxl Embers to stop the push they stop |
| 11131s | the bleeding and are able to take it 3 |
| 11133s | to two and it's back and forth from the |
| 11136s | top of the series all the way to the |
| 11138s | bottom of it from Samoa all the way out |
| 11140s | here to Route 66 it was blow for blow |
| 11142s | map for map one for one but because of |
| 11145s | that early that early win on Samoa and |
| 11148s | because of the early pickoffs here |
| 11149s | because of just the way that time is |
| 11152s | ethereal able to play on this map pick |
| 11154s | of Route 66 they are still just that |
| 11157s | much further ahead of nyxl Embers who |
| 11160s | will be going down to the lower bracket |
| 11162s | and I feel very confident in saying that |
| 11164s | this was potentially one of the closest |
| 11166s | matches we're going to see all day |
| 11168s | potentially all tournament long and I |
| 11170s | feel very confident in saying that the |
| 11172s | Difference Maker was just the sheer |
| 11175s | skill of individual Talent on the side |
| 11177s | of time ethereal the big plays made by |
| 11179s | players like Halo or by wisps or by bun |
| 11182s | in some of those clutch moments drops as |
| 11184s | well to saw Hill I mentioned how much |
| 11186s | pressure they were going to be under |
| 11187s | coming in for a map five and needing a |
| 11189s | guaranteed Victory well pressure makes |
| 11191s | diamonds and pressure might very well |
| 11194s | make a championship out of this team yet |
| 11198s | again they are able to clutch this one |
| 11202s | out at the very last second second and I |
| 11204s | mean this was incredibly close Timeless |
| 11207s | ethereal this is not the dominance that |
| 11209s | they knew for so long this is definitely |
| 11212s | just so much contention everywhere they |
| 11214s | turn first from Michael wave now from |
| 11216s | nyxl Embers sure they win this one out |
| 11219s | but the you're usually so much more |
| 11221s | dominant it's usually three O's two o's |
| 11223s | you never see them drop Maps like this |
| 11226s | and even on the maps that they are |
| 11227s | playing it's not really that close it |
| 11230s | feels like they're just running over |
| 11231s | some little kindergartener kids but nyxl |
| 11234s | Embers they put up such a good fight and |
| 11236s | I feel confident in saying that we |
| 11238s | probably are going to see nyxl Embers |
| 11240s | once again almost definitely I this |
| 11243s | didn't necessarily feel like they were |
| 11244s | running over kindergarteners I would say |
| 11245s | nyxl Embers were at least sixth graders |
| 11248s | in this uh in this sense right here at |
| 11250s | least I I'd probably even put them up as |
| 11252s | being you know fullon high schoolers |
| 11253s | here I think it felt a lot more close |
| 11255s | than that right yeah aside from Samoa |
| 11258s | and I think that's going to come back to |
| 11260s | bite you if you're nyxl Embers but you |
| 11262s | know for Timeless ethereal in the past |
| 11264s | they've shown dominance but in this |
| 11266s | tournament they can no longer |
| 11267s | realistically show that because there |
| 11269s | are other Challengers like Michael wave |
| 11271s | or like nyxl Embers that can push them |
| 11273s | to the limit so they have to show us |
| 11274s | something else and today they have |
| 11276s | they've shown us clutch Factor they've |
| 11278s | shown us tenacity they have shown |
| 11280s | calmness under pressure and the ability |
| 11282s | to adapt and that I think is what might |
| 11285s | carry them to yet another championship |
| 11288s | but it doesn't get any easier from here |
| 11290s | because there's the lower bracket you |
| 11291s | might see nyxl Embers come back to bite |
| 11293s | you yet again you might see a team like |
| 11295s | drainers shape up you might see |
| 11297s | Vancouver Titans blue show you know more |
| 11299s | than we expect out of them we might see |
| 11301s | them compete an underdog sword we might |
| 11303s | see Fable be the dark horses here and |
| 11305s | they're still the threat of Michael wave |
| 11308s | and that disastrous doomfist composition |
| 11310s | that they can do just throw a wrench |
| 11312s | into any equation you might have |
| 11314s | congratulations to Timeless ethereal and |
| 11316s | I know they are up for the challenge but |
| 11318s | a challenge it shall be and we are going |
| 11321s | to see who that MVP is for this amazing |
| 11326s | best of five all five Maps they went the |
| 11328s | distance after this very quick break see |
| 11331s | you |
| 11349s | [Music] |

| 11534s | what a nailbiter of a series here for |
| 11536s | the upper semifinals of calling all |
| 11539s | heroes Challengers series um we've also |
| 11542s | got that chipotle MVP of the match to |
| 11546s | show you guys so that's a big W over |
| 11549s | towards the support on the one of the |
| 11551s | supports actually on the side of |
| 11554s | Timeless it's going to be Halo she went |
| 11558s | absolutely insane in value there in that |
| 11561s | last match up tala |
| 11563s | I definitely feel like we saw Halo |
| 11565s | making a lot of these plays setting up |
| 11567s | so much for these squads on the Lucio on |
| 11570s | the Vita I mean especially this one that |
| 11573s | we saw in Samoa I mean Samoa was |
| 11576s | definitely Timeless serial map they were |
| 11578s | very dominant here but even after that |
| 11581s | Halo was able to set up a lot of the |
| 11583s | plays by putting players in key |
| 11585s | positions and allowing them to combo the |
| 11587s | ultimates allowing them to be able to uh |
| 11591s | put in so much damage with lizards with |
| 11594s | the gravitic fluxes it was just amazing |
| 11597s | what we |
| 11599s | saw yeah no was pretty incredible there |
| 11602s | coming out from Halo overall big big MVP |
| 11606s | here for the side of Timeless Eternal |
| 11608s | that's Triple A match MVP but we also |
| 11611s | can't not talk about the team overall |
| 11614s | there CB the supports are the reason why |
| 11617s | everyone on the front line can keep up |
| 11619s | in the game and overall I mean I feel |
| 11623s | like I mean this was the closest match |
| 11625s | of today thus far but you cannot deny |
| 11629s | how difficult almost of a match it was |
| 11632s | for the squad it it was the closest |
| 11634s | match thus far and we only had two |
| 11635s | matches by the way it doesn't feel like |
| 11637s | it like it feels like we've been through |
| 11638s | like six yeah it really like we've been |
| 11640s | through hell together right no we've |
| 11642s | actually only been through like one |
| 11643s | pretty Swift easy series and then a best |
| 11645s | of Five series or sorry a uh yeah best |
| 11647s | of Five series and you know the support |
| 11650s | play on either side was phenomenal and I |
| 11651s | look back I think back to especially new |
| 11654s | junk city right where Halo is setting up |
| 11656s | so many of these plays with the boops |
| 11657s | with the environmental kills whether it |
| 11659s | was on the Lucio or the Bita she was |
| 11661s | definitely holding her own even |
| 11662s | sometimes swapping back and forth |
| 11664s | between the two just to try and you know |
| 11666s | do whatever the moment called for and |
| 11668s | she na she knocked it out of the par she |
| 11669s | nailed it her positioning was phenomenal |
| 11671s | just playing very far back with you know |
| 11673s | trying to bait out the Dragon Blade and |
| 11675s | be ready to not Ajax it to make sure |
| 11677s | that sound barrier goes off when they |
| 11679s | need it and you know we talk about again |
| 11682s | about the whole team how having that |
| 11683s | good a support play means that your |
| 11684s | whole team is going to have that much |
| 11686s | more confidence sniper and saw Hill as |
| 11688s | your front line if they know that that |
| 11690s | sound barrier will be there when they |
| 11691s | need it if they know that their you know |
| 11693s | their Anna their Baptist will still be |
| 11695s | alive when they need him to be and it's |
| 11697s | all thanks to Halo that's you know |
| 11699s | that's good that's good team play that's |
| 11701s | good team play that's confidence that |
| 11702s | allows them to all play better as well |
| 11704s | yeah it really does just enabling to |
| 11707s | keep your front line up in those |
| 11708s | situations but we actually have a |
| 11710s | frontliner that we get to talk to in |
| 11713s | just a second now we're going to say |
| 11714s | hello to sill on the side of Timeless |
| 11715s | Eternal and sill big congratulations for |
| 11719s | that W there it was a long series I know |
| 11722s | you just came in at the end subbing in |
| 11724s | and I was wondering well how are you |
| 11726s | feeling in general and also on top of |
| 11728s | that how did it feel to have to come in |
| 11731s | on that last map in particular with so |
| 11734s | much pressure writing on the series well |
| 11737s | to start I think we're all feeling |
| 11738s | pretty good about the win like obviously |
| 11740s | no one likes to lose we all like to win |
| 11743s | and uh I felt pretty confident going |
| 11745s | into the map because I said at the start |
| 11747s | of the series like if we go to map five |
| 11748s | I'll make us win I'm the map five |
| 11750s | Merchant that's what I said at the start |
| 11753s | and I just came in I played my game I |
| 11755s | think we were getting it a little into |
| 11756s | our heads like in some of the maps when |
| 11758s | we were losing so I just came in we we |
| 11759s | got a like a mental reset and we just we |
| 11761s | played our game in |
| 11762s | one that's really awesome I love like |
| 11765s | the the forethought that goes into that |
| 11767s | as well the fact that you're just so |
| 11768s | confident in making that call but I'm |
| 11770s | also curious I know that as far as when |
| 11772s | we're looking at which Heroes you're |
| 11774s | playing compared to sniper do you |
| 11776s | typically just kind of sub in for those |
| 11779s | dive Heroes for this team or is it more |
| 11782s | of like a mental reset situation like |
| 11783s | you were just talking about uh um I feel |
| 11786s | like when we do play Dive uh yeah I |
| 11788s | usually play it's just I feel like I'm |
| 11790s | more comfortable more of the dive |
| 11792s | characters that are like meta right now |
| 11794s | for example like Winston and stuff like |
| 11795s | because Diva and ball aren't that great |
| 11797s | right now but yeah uh mostly when we're |
| 11799s | when we're not playing like Sigma comps |
| 11801s | because sniper is just the best Sigma in |
| 11802s | the world I can't lie and yeah |
| 11807s | just I I I agree sniper does make a |
| 11809s | pretty solid case for you know being one |
| 11811s | of the best segas in the world and then |
| 11812s | you coming in and having to try and play |
| 11814s | some of those more dive Centric Heroes |
| 11816s | you know like you said you you have to |
| 11818s | try and you know be uh you have you're |
| 11820s | under a lot of pressure coming into that |
| 11822s | situation right because you like you |
| 11823s | mentioned you're getting in your own |
| 11824s | head right because uh your your team's |
| 11826s | getting your own heads because you're |
| 11827s | losing how does it feel to have to adapt |
| 11829s | to that is that like a new feeling you |
| 11831s | know having to scratch and for some of |
| 11833s | these games whereas before you just kind |
| 11834s | of ran away with it I mean yeah I feel |
| 11837s | like a lot of the mistakes we're making |
| 11838s | are like we're we're just making really |
| 11841s | big mistakes it's not like on the enemy |
| 11843s | team well no no flame to them but I feel |
| 11844s | like we're just making really big |
| 11845s | mistakes that we can definitely work on |
| 11847s | so I think it shouldn't be like this |
| 11850s | again theoretically but I feel |
| 11854s | like I I think I think we've like we've |
| 11856s | lost enough in scrims and stuff to be |
| 11858s | able to play from behind you know like I |
| 11860s | think we're used to |
| 11861s | it |
| 11864s | well you absolutely love to hear the |
| 11865s | fact that you guys are you know aware |
| 11866s | and uh looking towards making those |
| 11869s | improvements and whatnot and just uh |
| 11872s | being conscious of all of that in |
| 11875s | general um I have a bit of a fun |
| 11877s | question to ask I kind of want to know |
| 11878s | what the comms were like um specifically |
| 11882s | during that near C9 situation all the |
| 11886s | way back um I believe that was on |
| 11890s | Midtown and I that that was one |
| 11893s | hilarious oh is it the the one where |

| 11905s | let's keep them as distracted as |
| 11907s | possible okay I think our team didn't |
| 11909s | even notice that bun was doing that she |
| 11910s | was just silent on the cart and everyone |
| 11912s | was fighting and then they bladed and |
| 11915s | Bun just said well they bladed for me |
| 11916s | and we just went to the next fight |
| 11919s | like that's pretty such a me was I was |
| 11923s | so curious if it was like yeah that |

| 12877s | welcome back everybody to calling all |
| 12879s | heroes and again I'm your your host Ash |
| 12881s | but I'm joined with some new casters |
| 12883s | this time around but they definitely not |
| 12886s | new to you guys in the OverWatch scene |
| 12887s | we've got Dogman and got Moxy on the |
| 12890s | desk with me and Dogman how are you |
| 12893s | feeling today I'm feeling good Ash I |
| 12895s | mean there's been some fun games today |
| 12897s | what's it what's it like coming back to |
| 12898s | the radio I know throwing back a |
| 12900s | question to you but I'm I'm doing good |
| 12901s | and I mean how have you how have the |
| 12903s | games been today for you to watch kind |
| 12904s | of throughout the series and we've had |
| 12906s | two really fun Series so far yeah we |
| 12908s | really have I would say the first series |
| 12911s | was a little bit surprising the fact |
| 12912s | that it didn't go all the way to that |
| 12914s | third map but the last one that we just |
| 12917s | saw between nyxl Embers versus Timeless |
| 12920s | ethereal was an absolute Banger and I |
| 12923s | feel like it's a bit nerve-wracking we |
| 12925s | heard from Saw Hill in that interview as |
| 12928s | well saying that okay we knew that we |
| 12929s | were making some mistakes that we don't |
| 12931s | normally make but I feel like the |
| 12933s | competition has been growing closer |
| 12935s | there |
| 12936s | Moxy yeah speaking about growing close I |
| 12938s | feel like this next match is going to be |
| 12940s | Incredibly Close because Timeless aerial |
| 12942s | they looked incredibly solid on that |
| 12944s | first map but then when nyxl's ambers |
| 12947s | started running that Genji it became a |
| 12950s | lot more problematic and something that |
| 12952s | microwave have been running throughout |
| 12954s | the entirety of this major is Zoe on the |
| 12957s | Genji so I'm expecting T aeral to |
| 12960s | potentially have a little bit more of a |
| 12962s | struggle against this team than if they |
| 12964s | were rocking against someone like |
| 12966s | Vancouver Titans blue M it's a big |
| 12969s | rematch coming in as well considering |
| 12971s | that Michael wave managed to 20 Timeless |
| 12973s | ethereal last week within the Swiss |
| 12976s | stage on top of that a team that Barely |
| 12978s | Used to even drop Maps when calling all |
| 12981s | heroes had initially started so uh we're |
| 12984s | going to say hello to the rosters as |
| 12986s | well we'll kick things off with I |
| 12989s | believe the side of Michael wave on that |
| 12991s | first end there for the roster graphic |
| 12994s | but overall tell me a little bit about |
| 12996s | this team dowin well I mean they've |
| 12998s | they've so far been very good right |
| 13000s | incredibly consistent consistent team |
| 13001s | throughout this major and that's really |
| 13003s | what you're looking for for a team that |
| 13005s | can potentially upset Timeless ethereal |
| 13007s | especially since you know previously at |
| 13010s | least like we said last game with timeo |
| 13012s | versus nxl Embers it was incredibly |
| 13014s | close so out of every single team that |
| 13016s | could potentially upset it's it's these |
| 13018s | guys right soe has been very very |
| 13020s | talented their tank player as well and |
| 13022s | obviously a very strong backline too |
| 13024s | especially with wi rocking that brigita |
| 13026s | in a lot of the main support |
| 13028s | roles well we're going to see have we're |
| 13030s | going to have the revisit also who |
| 13032s | Michael wave will be facing up against |
| 13034s | as well of course this team that they've |
| 13036s | been able to knock down once before but |
| 13040s | we also know that Timeless ethereal Moxy |
| 13042s | have it in them to be able to bring |
| 13044s | things back in that kind of sense and |
| 13046s | also bring their sixth uh player in yeah |
| 13050s | and I mean the five lucios as as well |
| 13052s | has become very much a staple of the |
| 13053s | Timeless aerial hero cards I'm a huge |
| 13057s | fan of this team I love how flexible |
| 13059s | they can be right bum being able to play |
| 13060s | play both the tank and also DPS wisps |
| 13063s | actually locking in the Widow Maker |
| 13065s | against Vancouver Titans blue on King's |
| 13067s | Row getting so much support from the |
| 13069s | rest of the team I absolutely adored the |
| 13071s | play that they made where wisps actually |
| 13073s | just went up on the Widow on Cinema and |
| 13076s | got the amplification Matrix from Zed |
| 13078s | and with that they would have just |
| 13080s | absolutely clapped every single head of |
| 13083s | every player that walked through the CH |
| 13084s | because it's something that you're not |
| 13086s | expecting and I think that's something |
| 13087s | that time really are able to bring to |
| 13089s | the table right that |
| 13091s | unpredictability coming up against one |
| 13093s | of these teams where they do know |
| 13095s | exactly what they're going to be going |
| 13096s | up against Michael wave have been very |
| 13098s | open about the conversations that they |
| 13099s | like to lock Mario is going to be |
| 13101s | playing a lot of the doomfist even |
| 13103s | though this is going to be played on |
| 13104s | oppr client not live so it's thankfully |
| 13107s | not going to be a regenerating 75 Health |
| 13110s | per second while up in the air Doom |
| 13113s | first but still a terrifying do this |
| 13115s | nonetheless absolutely as a reminder to |
| 13118s | everyone we are again within the upper |
| 13119s | finals of the challenge series here as |
| 13122s | well for the last major within the |
| 13124s | regular season of calling all heroes we |
| 13126s | got to head into this first map though |
| 13128s | and it's going to be Antarctic selected |
| 13131s | here for control picked here by Michael |
| 13134s | wave there Moxy yeah no surpris is this |
| 13137s | is one of the best control maps for the |
| 13139s | Doom to find so much value there is a |
| 13141s | lot of high ground so a lot of the time |
| 13142s | if you try and run that Sigma you can |
| 13144s | actually find yourself being stunted by |
| 13146s | the mobility to the to the point of |
| 13147s | actually having to run something like a |
| 13149s | symmetra on one of those DPS slots a lot |
| 13152s | of those fights are going to be taking |
| 13153s | place in incredibly cramped spaces which |
| 13155s | means the dest punching in is going to |
| 13156s | be hitting and disrupting multiple |
| 13158s | people this is the best possible choice |
| 13160s | that they can |
| 13162s | make it absolutely is but we're about to |
| 13165s | head into the game before we do you guys |
| 13167s | have some things to cop down in chat as |
| 13170s | well we've got the codes to come in here |
| 13173s | for that chipotle drop so you guys get |
| 13175s | your burritos as I send Dogman and Moxy |
| 13179s | into the game thank you Ash and it's |
| 13182s | good to be back right back in the |
| 13184s | radiant Heroes where every single season |
| 13186s | it feels like the talent level just |
| 13188s | keeps increasing Moxy you know obviously |
| 13190s | today has had some incredibly fun |
| 13193s | matches really really good so far and |
| 13196s | you know for a team like Michael wave |
| 13197s | Moxy you know what is their kind of win |
| 13200s | condition leading into antar Peninsula |
| 13202s | because obviously like you said this is |
| 13203s | a good map for them you kind of touched |
| 13204s | on him with a doomfist but maybe what |
| 13206s | are some I get some specific points of |
| 13209s | why this team could pop off on this in |
| 13211s | particular I mean like we've already |
| 13213s | talked about right the doomfest being |
| 13214s | able to come in and disrupt so many |
| 13216s | players is really good because it allows |
| 13219s | the Genji that sort of chaotic factor of |
| 13221s | coming in entirely unnoticed looking to |
| 13225s | infiltrate into the back line and bait |
| 13226s | out an awful lot of those really |
| 13228s | important resources whether or not |
| 13230s | you're playing something like the |
| 13231s | Baptist and you find yourself using |
| 13233s | immortality field a little bit too early |
| 13235s | before a fight properly kicks off that's |
| 13236s | going to have a major impact in how |
| 13238s | aggressive your tank gets to play to try |
| 13241s | and create |
| 13242s | space yeah that's a some good points and |
| 13246s | obviously Icebreaker going to be our |
| 13247s | first sub map and both of these teams |
| 13250s | obviously have been consistent so far |
| 13252s | specifically microwave where obviously |
| 13254s | last game and we saw Timeless theal |
| 13256s | earlier today you know maybe a little |
| 13258s | bit dicey Moxy do you think that was |
| 13260s | more to Timeless ethereal not playing up |
| 13263s | to their typical level or was that match |
| 13265s | up versus zenway really really just a |
| 13268s | strong match up from them I mean you |
| 13270s | can't really say that TS weren't playing |
| 13274s | up to what they normally are because I |
| 13276s | mean everyone was popping up on that |
| 13278s | team right bun coming with some really |
| 13280s | sneaky Tracer players almost getting the |
| 13283s | C9 on Midtown wisps absolutely popping |
| 13286s | off on hit gun as well we're going to |
| 13288s | see however the first map type come |
| 13290s | through and it is going to be ice |
| 13291s | breaker wisps going for that symmetra |
| 13294s | the for swapping over to the sergeon to |
| 13296s | be able to power slide back in microwave |
| 13298s | not on the Doom first running something |
| 13300s | very similar to what we've actually seen |
| 13302s | previously ajmr going to be on the |
| 13304s | Moira definitely a very brawl heavy |
| 13307s | composition however death already took |
| 13308s | some poke early on resulting in a lot of |
| 13311s | those heals go into them but in this |
| 13313s | find about even in terms of health Co |
| 13314s | until wi in the rest of Michael wave |
| 13317s | collapsed onto Timeless Imperial not |
| 13318s | giving them any positioning any room to |
| 13321s | work with although a nice creation from |
| 13322s | sniper was absolutely beautiful however |
| 13325s | far too much pressure towards the |
| 13326s | objective and at this point the Baptist |
| 13328s | is just going to get delayed in |
| 13329s | microwave but first to take the point |
| 13332s | yeah W coming in on that Lo here to |
| 13334s | enable Mari not having to worry about |
| 13336s | getting walled off and separated away |
| 13338s | from the rest of the team this is |
| 13340s | actually a really nice uh conversion of |
| 13342s | that support lineup right normally when |
| 13344s | you see that tank getting walled off by |
| 13346s | the may you want to have the Baptist to |
| 13347s | be able to use the exer boots and jump |
| 13349s | over the wall and for the immortality |
| 13351s | field but agmon knows they're |
| 13352s | potentially going to be picked off by |
| 13354s | whs or BN so goes onto the Moira for |
| 13356s | that better survivability with the fade |
| 13358s | in case you get pressured whisp now on |
| 13360s | on that Bastion looking to try and Shred |
| 13362s | Mari out of the Nemesis for death goes |
| 13365s | down to yeah bu with the perfectly |
| 13368s | placed wall however maybe the ultimates |
| 13369s | are too much at the point the Baptist |
| 13371s | window does keep everybody sustained as |
| 13374s | it is even into this fight another |
| 13376s | perfectly placed wall by bun gives Halo |
| 13378s | the kill on to soe so fantastic work on |
| 13380s | the re-engage on Timeless Imperial now |
| 13383s | Michael wave looking to make it even |
| 13385s | however now they're in gravitic flux |
| 13387s | into the sky they go wi is able to find |
| 13389s | the bti and some this Moira has been |
| 13391s | able to survive all of this fight |
| 13393s | however eventually far too much ultimate |
| 13396s | pressure with buns blizzard towards the |
| 13399s | point though they're having to back up |
| 13401s | Michael wave I mean they've lost too |
| 13402s | many people towards this |
| 13405s | point oh yeah that too man now into this |
| 13408s | next fight Moxy they're going to be |
| 13409s | against |
| 13411s | Halo well here's the thing sniper used |
| 13414s | uh the flux Bon also used the blizzard |
| 13416s | to be able to just stop microwave from |
| 13419s | being able to contest has that point for |
| 13420s | as long as possible with the stall on |
| 13422s | the Lucio as a result they don't have |
| 13424s | the B to counter that Nemesis coming on |
| 13427s | in from Mario who's immediately going to |
| 13428s | move forward with the raater ultimate |
| 13431s | trying to find the lock in on these |
| 13432s | players they get the blizzard off the |
| 13434s | beat was there however the blizzard |
| 13436s | caught too many people from Timeless |
| 13438s | Imperial out now Mich wave can continue |
| 13440s | this pressure up sure they gave up the |
| 13441s | point for a little bit interesting as |
| 13443s | timate of all things but now Michael |
| 13445s | waiver in last fight territory Timeless |
| 13446s | etheral backs against the wall Halo's |
| 13449s | going to go on the we we're going to |
| 13451s | yeah see it just being used to reset |
| 13453s | that Lucio as de coming in with the |
| 13455s | death L and they have to spot where the |
| 13457s | reaper is going to be as microwave get |
| 13459s | Bry they're going to hold time with a at |
| 13461s | the choke to stop them from being able |
| 13463s | to even contest the point and there's |
| 13465s | the death awesome Dustin it's all |
| 13467s | falling apart for Timeless yeah I mean |
| 13470s | that was that was the right play I mean |
| 13472s | perfectly coordinated there for for |
| 13474s | Michael wave and now rotated to the |
| 13476s | point I mean bun Last One Alive just |
| 13478s | going to get staggered that's beautiful |
| 13480s | that's that's pretty much Premier |
| 13481s | OverWatch gameplay right there for |
| 13482s | microw wave Halo tries to touch but just |
| 13485s | can't I mean that was that was beautiful |
| 13487s | Moxy yeah microwave coming in looking |
| 13490s | really strong Zoe had such a stellar |
| 13494s | wall even though microwave at the |
| 13496s | beginning of one of those fights they |
| 13498s | lose death they're actually able to |
| 13499s | trade it out Zoe finds the wall onto |
| 13502s | every single player on Timeless aerial |
| 13505s | agmr follows up with the coalescent so |
| 13508s | everyone can get incredibly aggressive |
| 13510s | and directly into the team while still |
| 13513s | being able to heal through that Moira |
| 13515s | ultimate and as a result Timeless AAL |
| 13517s | just feels so pressured that they throw |
| 13520s | in both the flux and then the blizzard |
| 13523s | and as a result they just have no |
| 13525s | ultimate to be able to power and Barrel |
| 13527s | through any of the choke holds that |
| 13530s | microwave |
| 13532s | control microwave now up one interesting |
| 13536s | comp two here now they're walking with |
| 13537s | the doomfist that you were talking about |
| 13538s | earlier monster yeah they're going to be |
| 13540s | able to use that higher Mobility Zoe |
| 13542s | going to be going in on that Genji wisps |
| 13545s | sticking with the Bastion trying to |
| 13547s | shred this doomfest who doesn't have a |
| 13549s | shield to his name the power block very |
| 13552s | very little in the face of that Bastion |
| 13554s | and as a result we going see atmr on the |
| 13556s | Anna wicker having to play bodyguard on |
| 13559s | that Bria as they've noticed the Anna |
| 13561s | vulnerable and there it is that's the |
| 13563s | trade off the brings so much |
| 13565s | sustainability but the tank just has no |
| 13567s | he yeah I mean that was nice Ro around |
| 13570s | from Timeless aerial I mean that's how |
| 13572s | you deal with right Marx you just kind |
| 13573s | of rotate around you AJ got cut |
| 13576s | out yeah AJ got CAU out immediately |
| 13579s | everyone from time will see the Anna |
| 13581s | jump on them they've got Halo on the |
| 13583s | lucier to be able to speed boost |
| 13584s | everyone on the team and to be able to |
| 13587s | punish that mistake and unfortunately |
| 13588s | agmr the only defense that you're going |
| 13590s | to have is either wicker staying right |
| 13592s | by your side or Mari getting incredibly |
| 13594s | aggressive and rolling but Timeless F do |
| 13597s | not have a full team's attention on the |
| 13600s | Anor zo we want to kill onto whiz I'm |
| 13604s | not even did he deflect or did she |
| 13605s | deflect the deflect she deflected oh my |
| 13608s | God and then bring it into a 3K soy |
| 13611s | beautiful Genji gam playay out of |
| 13614s | Michael Wes Genji player and they want |
| 13616s | even more I mean just looking to push |
| 13617s | back sniper at the very least in the |
| 13619s | rest of Timeless ethereal got them off |
| 13621s | the point without having to use a single |
| 13623s | ultimate andmr going to be coming into |
| 13626s | this next fight with the Nano Zoe she is |
| 13628s | so close to that BL whisp off of the |
| 13631s | Bastion onto thean to be able to try and |
| 13633s | take these off angles and punish the |
| 13635s | Anna a lot more easily than the Bastion |
| 13637s | has to play so much closer to |
| 13640s | sniper plux engaged but has the anapo |
| 13643s | their perfect work from microwave |
| 13645s | support line now Zoe goes in with the |
| 13647s | blade gets one on the Tracer of all |
| 13649s | players eventually they're able to find |
| 13651s | it through some fantastic B piece play |
| 13653s | however the pressure is already there |
| 13655s | the damage might already be done in this |
| 13657s | fight off the map you go goodbye snip |
| 13660s | also wh see you later it was a bait it |
| 13664s | was a bait Zoe goes for the blade and |
| 13667s | pulls everyone on time cerial side onto |
| 13670s | cliff and the nanoboost doesn't go to |
| 13672s | the Genji it goes to Mari on her Doom |
| 13675s | first she has all of the damage |
| 13678s | reduction to be able to hold that |
| 13679s | position and find the environmental |
| 13682s | knockoffs onto Timeless |
| 13685s | aerial so in that fight in particular so |
| 13688s | we just kind of tried to fight the |
| 13689s | Tracer I like the aggression like the |
| 13691s | confidence there however results in you |
| 13694s | getting picked off early and giving up |
| 13696s | the point so now they can't even use any |
| 13698s | ultimates here microwave they're back to |
| 13699s | the spawn Timeless with the point yeah |
| 13702s | unfortunately you can't deflect rocks |
| 13705s | and sniper comes in with a creation and |
| 13707s | bodies the Genji bun now looking for a |
| 13711s | flank what is she going to find she |
| 13713s | finds the pulse B did she manage to get |
| 13715s | a kill no and she didn't even Bait wi |
| 13717s | into using the rally to stop her |
| 13720s | Timeless theal trying to get these kind |
| 13723s | of perfect positioning to make sure that |
| 13725s | they're on this Anna as soon as they |
| 13727s | walk out overclock coming up in a second |
| 13729s | M wave have easily a great op to work |
| 13732s | with here though on their re-engage |
| 13734s | however now ESS actually get picked off |
| 13736s | soy going for those aggressive plays is |
| 13738s | able to find bun that's a huge opening |
| 13741s | pick for Michael Wayne however death |
| 13743s | will eventually fall trade back sojourn |
| 13746s | still and eventually this Baptist is |
| 13749s | eventually going to run out of utility |
| 13750s | so no more after use some Timeless theal |
| 13753s | they're going to have to lay of this |
| 13755s | objective just kind of stall out the |
| 13756s | point get a r test later and microwave |
| 13758s | again win a fight without any |
| 13761s | ultimates th zal use the sound barer as |
| 13764s | well they've got the amplification |
| 13765s | Matrix to try and buy themselves some |
| 13767s | space unfortunately you're up against a |
| 13769s | composition that's so mobile Mar is |
| 13771s | going to have absolutely no respect |
| 13772s | she's just going to punch directly |
| 13773s | through it they might have to combine it |
| 13776s | with whis of overclock but then you have |
| 13777s | to out your death just so many |
| 13781s | ultimates in the bank at the moment for |
| 13783s | both teams no still available Mich |
| 13786s | playing slow 93% of the board now comes |
| 13788s | that overclock with an anab boost called |
| 13789s | it Moxy that goes on to wh I mean what |
| 13792s | do you do about that counter gratic blux |
| 13794s | tried to stop it but there's too many |
| 13796s | heals for Micha wave at the moment also |
| 13798s | amplification m to the main he but shut |
| 13800s | down by Mari and at this point I mean |
| 13803s | what do you do if your Timeless ethereal |
| 13805s | besides touch the point really this |
| 13807s | might just be a go next map kind of |
| 13808s | situation because microwave looked |
| 13811s | amazing on a lot of their fights 20 on |
| 13814s | an Antarctic |
| 13816s | Peninsula yeah Timeless aerial they're |
| 13818s | coming in with amplification Matrix |
| 13820s | normally if you're up against a team |
| 13821s | that likes to brawl you can drop the |
| 13822s | amplification Matrix As you move in from |
| 13825s | choke onto the point unfortunately |
| 13828s | they're up against a heavily mobile team |
| 13832s | as a result everyone just gives it |
| 13834s | absolutely no minders that's how the |
| 13836s | deflect got wisps and this is how Zoe is |
| 13839s | able to find the kills afterwards |
| 13841s | sleeped out onto B the May incredibly |
| 13844s | vulnerable and this is actually |
| 13845s | something that I really wanted to talk |
| 13847s | about Genji was almost soon as |
| 13849s | unplayable on the last contenders patch |
| 13851s | because of how strong May was buffed as |
| 13854s | a result a lot of those players who |
| 13856s | wanted to field into the Genji ASI got |
| 13858s | spooked away from the pick entirely |
| 13860s | because you can't deflect all of the |
| 13862s | damage coming through from the Main's |
| 13864s | endothermic Blaster but Zoe was doing |
| 13866s | such a good job of just allowing the |
| 13868s | rest of her team to be able to deal with |
| 13870s | the May picking fights knowing that she |
| 13872s | doesn't have to worry about being |
| 13874s | shredded by all of that damage coming |
| 13876s | off of that may being that she's not got |
| 13879s | anything to actually have equipped to be |
| 13881s | able to deal with herself and as a |
| 13884s | result microwave were just finding so |
| 13886s | much value off of the Genji Pi yeah it's |
| 13889s | it's looking good at the moment I mean |
| 13891s | Genji really like you said has has made |
| 13893s | that kind of had a Resurgence in the |
| 13896s | meta and you know maybe maybe they talk |
| 13898s | as well about the whole team right and |
| 13900s | also if we looked at microwave support |
| 13901s | line there MOX I mean they were doing a |
| 13903s | good job keeping soe alive and and |
| 13905s | really enabling her yeah I mean we only |
| 13909s | really saw ajmar getting CAU out of |
| 13911s | position once and that was in the first |
| 13914s | fight where everyone from microwave is |
| 13915s | not really working with all of the |
| 13917s | information they're trying to figure out |
| 13919s | what ESS the fial are they're trying to |
| 13921s | figure out where the uh sigar is going |
| 13923s | to be rotating into because as we saw |
| 13925s | the Genji does not want to go directly |
| 13926s | into the middle of the composition with |
| 13929s | little inform because that means that |
| 13930s | you're going to be rising the respawn |
| 13932s | room a lot earlier than you were banking |
| 13935s | on ever since that moment however they |
| 13938s | were able to make sure that their |
| 13939s | backline was protected that no one was |
| 13941s | able to infiltrate and drop onto agmr a |
| 13944s | little bit too early a lot of it did |
| 13946s | come down to the the fact that they were |
| 13948s | able to control the point for as long as |
| 13950s | they did right it's a lot harder to be |
| 13951s | able to as an attacking and approaching |
| 13953s | team try and find an off angle on an |
| 13956s | Anna that has been nestled up in some of |
| 13958s | those High Ground cor is kept safe by |
| 13960s | that Brigida and you also have to worry |
| 13963s | about a Genji and a doomfist pushing |
| 13965s | into your backline and trying to find |
| 13967s | those kills on every single approach and |
| 13970s | I think as well specifically for |
| 13972s | Timeless right they they've shown to |
| 13974s | kind of struggle versus these dive |
| 13976s | compositions so far in the tournament |
| 13977s | right I mean it's just even I would say |
| 13980s | against lesser teams they still somehow |
| 13982s | you know will struggle in a lot these |
| 13983s | team fights and I don't know if that's |
| 13985s | due to a lack of coordination |
| 13987s | potentially or maybe mechanical |
| 13989s | differential to dealing with the Dives |
| 13991s | maybe like players don't do as good |
| 13993s | versus these dive comps Moxy what do you |
| 13994s | think it is that really is the weakness |
| 13996s | of Timeless ethereal versus these dive |
| 13998s | teams specifically like microwave looks |
| 14000s | really clean but also Timeless maybe |
| 14002s | some of that has to do with their I |
| 14004s | don't know preparation or or something |
| 14006s | versus the |
| 14007s | dimes yeah it feels like they've |
| 14009s | definitely been preparing more for the |
| 14010s | mirror right when you look at how they |
| 14012s | would dispatching a lot of these other |
| 14014s | teams a lot of the time it was when they |
| 14016s | were going into the sigma mirror with |
| 14018s | that main Soldier and it's a matchup |
| 14020s | that they know incredibly well it's a |
| 14022s | matchup that they're very good at being |
| 14024s | able to do in fact you can even see how |
| 14026s | much preparation they put into being |
| 14027s | able to run that Sigma as often as |
| 14029s | possible given the fact it's not just |
| 14031s | sniper who plays the sigma they also |
| 14033s | have bum being able to flexs onto the |
| 14036s | tank as well so they're putting a lot of |
| 14039s | forward and resources into learning that |
| 14042s | composition and unfortunately we saw the |
| 14045s | problems coming through from that |
| 14047s | composition if you are being accosted by |
| 14049s | a dive team you don't really have a lot |
| 14052s | of peel for multiple dive targets right |
| 14056s | once the sigma uses the accretion it's |
| 14058s | sort of a one and done if it doesn't |
| 14060s | immediately find a connection especially |
| 14063s | if you get punched out of it by a |
| 14064s | doomfist mid cast animation it still |
| 14067s | goes on coold down and you don't get |
| 14069s | that opening to immediately be able to |
| 14070s | jump a low Health Target as a result |
| 14073s | they sort of have to make this decision |
| 14075s | of whether or not they want to play |
| 14076s | incredibly aggressive and try and go for |
| 14078s | the back line to deny the resources and |
| 14081s | stop the Genji and the doomfest feeling |
| 14082s | like they have the absolute run of the |
| 14084s | map as a result or if they want to play |
| 14087s | too defensive and they give up too much |
| 14089s | space and unfortunately there's not |
| 14091s | really a winning strategy when you try |
| 14093s | and figure between both of them every |
| 14094s | single time you're giving something up |
| 14096s | and on control you never want to be at a |
| 14099s | disadvantage before the fight even |
| 14101s | starts and I was thinking as well Marx |
| 14103s | you know what map does Timeless take us |
| 14105s | to considering what just happened in |
| 14107s | that one on antartic Peninsula looks |
| 14109s | like it's going to be Midtown um |
| 14111s | obviously you know I think these Sigma |
| 14112s | compositions can do well on Midtown Moxy |
| 14115s | but you know versus a team like |
| 14118s | microwave with how clean they're playing |
| 14119s | at the moment I I don't know are you a |
| 14121s | little worried potentially for Timeless |
| 14124s | considering the fact that you know hke |
| 14126s | has been playing or not hke sorry um |
| 14128s | this this whole team has been playing |
| 14129s | Super well around the Genji I mean I I |
| 14132s | can't help but feel that Midtown you |
| 14134s | know I'm sure is a is a good pick in |
| 14136s | them for them in scrims and stuff but |
| 14138s | like you said maybe this preparation for |
| 14139s | you know the mirror or something is |
| 14141s | resulting in you know different map |
| 14143s | picks potentially coming out for them so |
| 14147s | I could actually see this as time aeral |
| 14149s | trying to put buns Echo into play |
| 14151s | because that is the thing that they were |
| 14153s | able to use in the last matchup when |
| 14155s | they were struggling against the Genji |
| 14157s | because Genji into Echo always favors |
| 14160s | the echo a vast majority of the time as |
| 14163s | long as you don't throw your stickies |
| 14164s | into the deflect you should be a okay |
| 14167s | because deflect does not affect uh |
| 14171s | focusing beam so as a result if the |
| 14172s | Genji tries to close up the distance or |
| 14174s | use the deflect when he's looking for |
| 14176s | that dive the echo is still able to a |
| 14178s | lot of the time deal enough damage to |
| 14180s | either kill him outright or chase him |
| 14182s | away and if he uses his Dash he's going |
| 14184s | after the echo you know that that's |
| 14186s | immediately going to give your backline |
| 14188s | a sort of bubble of safety and it was |
| 14190s | something that we saw time with aeria |
| 14192s | when they went to Route 66 bun ran onto |
| 14196s | the echo we could potentially see it |
| 14198s | here as Michel wave on the defense are |
| 14201s | immediately going to be putting that |
| 14203s | hero into play we do get to see an echo |
| 14206s | but it's not from the team that Timeless |
| 14208s | aerial were |
| 14209s | hoping no yeah I mean really interesting |
| 14213s | pick considering I mean it does feel |
| 14215s | Moxy like Ekko is kind of like has a |
| 14217s | main stay on on Midtown does feel like |
| 14219s | we see this character specifically on |
| 14221s | this map and I guess like like you said |
| 14222s | you pointed it out like most of these uh |
| 14225s | of these payload Maps the echo can kind |
| 14226s | of R free but you know it does seem to |
| 14229s | me Moxy that the Ekko doesn't carry as |
| 14231s | hard as the Genji I mean is that is that |
| 14233s | a fair opinion you think or do you think |
| 14235s | the Ekko has that potential that Genji |
| 14238s | does I mean she definitely has the |
| 14240s | potential especially got the mercy |
| 14241s | pocket Zoe however going to be running |
| 14243s | out on the echo AGM on the Anna to |
| 14246s | sustain Mari on that tank without a |
| 14249s | shield only power block to her name ESS |
| 14251s | fa now have an entirely different win |
| 14253s | condition if they're able to keep the |
| 14255s | echo in check off of wisps or Z they're |
| 14257s | going to have a much easier time being |
| 14258s | able to cross through these ches and if |
| 14260s | they take too long however mari's going |
| 14262s | to be able to cyle through those cool |
| 14263s | Downs a lot faster than sniper who's |
| 14266s | already had to receive immortality field |
| 14268s | yeah sniper kind of just sat in a very |
| 14270s | aggressive position there towards the |
| 14271s | fire truck and poke from basically |
| 14274s | everywhere however Michael wave does |
| 14276s | have a lot of low players on their team |
| 14278s | if they can heal up maybe they can |
| 14279s | stabilize towards the point two and |
| 14281s | actually they force off Timeless |
| 14282s | Timeless do not capitalized on anything |
| 14284s | I guess they set a bun towards the flank |
| 14286s | there so that could be big in this |
| 14288s | upcoming |
| 14289s | fight yeah Bun's definitely looking for |
| 14291s | that flank you can see wigger being a |
| 14293s | lot more aware of this space around to |
| 14296s | make sure the AG mod does not have to |
| 14297s | deal with that Tracer as Mari once again |
| 14300s | going to jump onto sniper and try and |
| 14302s | separate the signal from the team the |
| 14303s | time we going to walk in Halo contest |
| 14306s | towards The High Ground the result in |
| 14308s | both back lines losing their Flex |
| 14310s | support sniper however find sewing after |
| 14313s | the heals were removed and just |
| 14314s | continues that pressure up right on to |
| 14317s | support and soj of Michael wave I mean |
| 14320s | what do you do against that fantastic |
| 14322s | work from Timeless on that engaged |
| 14323s | sniper popping off |
| 14326s | there yeah really good stuff coming |
| 14328s | through from that Sigma an absolute |
| 14329s | anchor to this composition microw wave |
| 14332s | could potentially try and recontest you |
| 14333s | can actually see the tal DPS just moving |
| 14336s | forward making sure that that does not |
| 14338s | happen they know how close death is |
| 14339s | going to be to the overclock wicker to |
| 14342s | that rally as F does have the pulse bomb |
| 14344s | if agma plays too close to Wicker this |
| 14346s | time around is actually a detriment |
| 14348s | because the |
| 14349s | potentially catch both of them but it |
| 14351s | does come through and unfortunately it |
| 14353s | does not secure a kill what it has been |
| 14355s | able to do though is push Michael wave |
| 14356s | away from the chokes so sniper can move |
| 14358s | forward and take Mari down mari's kind |
| 14361s | of been the sacrificial lamb for Michael |
| 14363s | wave see if they can get the kills and |
| 14366s | oh my gosh W was almost gravitic flux |
| 14369s | but was pulled back into it however |
| 14371s | Michel wave even though they lost their |
| 14373s | brigita are still in a solid position |
| 14375s | here they're going to back up give a bit |
| 14377s | of that space but they've got the gtic |
| 14379s | out of Timeless etheral at the very |
| 14380s | least they've got The High Ground as |
| 14383s | well so even though both surgeons are |
| 14385s | going to have the overclock they in a |
| 14386s | much better position to be able to use |
| 14389s | it Zoe on the echo going to get the |
| 14391s | naners this is something we've seen time |
| 14393s | and time again in contenders has to deal |
| 14396s | with the lamp but takes too long the bad |
| 14398s | CL from time with the S able to take the |
| 14400s | E down there's a reason why Halo has |
| 14403s | been an MVP of the tournament so far for |
| 14406s | this team Wile also falls to them too |
| 14409s | perfect work from the Lucio player of |
| 14411s | time superial expertly time beat drop |
| 14414s | and then the engage overclock also to |
| 14416s | continue Timeless etheral engage wh able |
| 14418s | to find AJ and then the wh is there to |
| 14420s | save them too continuing the rain is |
| 14423s | timeless |
| 14424s | ethereal really good stop from time back |
| 14427s | like you said c just using the |
| 14428s | immortality field to enable with with |
| 14431s | the aggression on that overclock we're |
| 14433s | going to see the attempt contest come |
| 14435s | through from microwave but immediately |
| 14437s | Mario is going to fall the amplification |
| 14439s | Matrix not going to let the Doom first |
| 14441s | punch through that one instead it's |
| 14443s | going to be microwave punching their |
| 14444s | ticket to respawn this Timeless of |
| 14447s | ferial get aggressive and try and buy |
| 14449s | themselves as much space as possible on |
| 14451s | the payload by holding microwave in the |
| 14453s | SP as long as they can 4 minutes and 20 |
| 14457s | seconds bu's got a p spomb ready to go |
| 14459s | so swaps over to the Genji that's that |
| 14461s | swap that has been interesting |
| 14462s | throughout the tournament death also has |
| 14464s | an overclock ready to go as we cross |
| 14466s | this first |
| 14467s | Corner yeah onto that Genji going to try |
| 14470s | and close up the distance between |
| 14471s | themselves and Z so that she can pull |
| 14473s | out that immortality field that's been |
| 14476s | enabling sniper so much more forward |
| 14478s | momentum in comparison to what Mari has |
| 14480s | been able to do bun however with that |
| 14482s | pulse bomb makes her presence no Zoe |
| 14485s | brought low enough that the old fire |
| 14487s | from the Sian takes it down yeah nice |
| 14490s | opening pick from whis Death has the |
| 14492s | counter use the overlock just to |
| 14494s | stabilize versus this team on the |
| 14497s | offensive front but I Cal playing |
| 14499s | patient they're ready to go Bun over the |
| 14500s | top of the pulse bomb waiting for it and |
| 14503s | still looking for this poke R Block some |
| 14505s | sniper buns able to find the pull bomb |
| 14507s | to soe of all players n boost on to Mari |
| 14510s | Michael wave trying to find the kills |
| 14512s | but it's a it's a doomfist right tank |
| 14514s | player doesn't have the damage to find |
| 14516s | the kills without soe in this fight now |
| 14518s | the rally from wi they're trying to find |
| 14520s | more but bun finds Mari on the engage wi |
| 14522s | now potentially caught out has to back |
| 14524s | up use the shield to kind of play as a |
| 14526s | pseudo tank at least micheler izing now |
| 14529s | the very least they can get back f with |
| 14531s | Mari to yeah huge need coming through |
| 14534s | from agmr he lands on to Z who was on |
| 14536s | critical how de able to get into |
| 14539s | Position will be able to take down the |
| 14540s | soldier and then follows it up with the |
| 14543s | Baptist what a play coming through now |
| 14546s | trying to take down BN time aeral make |
| 14548s | the call back on out Retreat regroup 2 |
| 14551s | minutes and 47 seconds can disappear in |
| 14553s | the blink of an eye however when you're |
| 14556s | on Midtown and your back is up against |
| 14558s | against that |
| 14560s | choke now coming back have that window |
| 14562s | this why I love that sojourn meta Moxy I |
| 14564s | mean it's just so fun to watch two |
| 14566s | evenly match sojourns go head-to-head |
| 14568s | Sombra for bun yeah that's an |
| 14570s | interesting swap to do both teams kind |
| 14572s | of both the Genji and the |
| 14576s | Doom both of those Heroes rely on a lot |
| 14578s | of that mobility and Som all of it yeah |
| 14581s | you're right let's see if it pans out |
| 14583s | for Timeless sniper it's a they trade |
| 14586s | back wi that's a trade you'll take any |
| 14588s | day weak of your Michel wave right you |
| 14589s | have this support you still have the |
| 14592s | Anna here and no tank for they in they |
| 14597s | cannot they can't take advantage they |
| 14598s | can't put whisp into a position to be |
| 14600s | able to use the overclock that's the |
| 14601s | trade-off when you run the Sombra right |
| 14603s | you deny a lot of abilities from the |
| 14605s | other side but it also puts so much more |
| 14607s | pressure onto wisps on that soan because |
| 14609s | the Z just doesn't do enough damage |
| 14612s | we're going to see the dot take down Zoe |
| 14616s | is that enough for tal to feel actual |
| 14618s | confidence to try and take this push it |
| 14620s | looks like it is it is but you know |
| 14622s | already 2 minutes off the clock and |
| 14623s | microwave still have ultimates Nano |
| 14625s | plate available but they Nano overclock |
| 14626s | instead in that resulting two deaths |
| 14629s | immediately make it three goodbye FN no |
| 14631s | more Sombra for you halo goes down 4K |
| 14635s | for death and true to their name they're |
| 14637s | doing it |
| 14639s | today time very much feeling like they |
| 14642s | are up against death itself right now |
| 14645s | zo's going to have the blade too Halo |
| 14647s | tried to use the barrier to counteract |
| 14650s | the overclock as a result even though |
| 14652s | Zoe doesn't have the Nano boost you're |
| 14654s | still going to have the damage to be |
| 14656s | able to cut through those Health bus you |
| 14657s | don't have to worry about the Lucio |
| 14659s | ultimate pushing tal into being able to |
| 14661s | sustain through it it's all going to |
| 14663s | come down to this push ter are coming |
| 14665s | into so many ultimates but D there so |
| 14667s | many fights that they have to win |
| 14669s | afterwards the microwave do exactly what |
| 14671s | Timeless did on Antarctic push Timeless |
| 14674s | to the absolute Brink to force their |
| 14676s | hand into using as much as as soon as |
| 14678s | they possibly can always going to want |
| 14681s | to die here just to get back to the team |
| 14683s | 35 seconds left Moxy I mean this is such |
| 14685s | a close intense fight and Timeless have |
| 14687s | built up some |
| 14688s | good Timeless didn't use them that's |
| 14691s | huge microwave would try with that |
| 14693s | engagement on the blade from Zoe to push |
| 14695s | time aeral into burning those ultimates |
| 14696s | too soon tal are able to get through the |
| 14699s | spawn and choke with damage alone and |
| 14702s | now they have every single one of those |
| 14703s | ultimates except s barrier to deal with |
| 14705s | the medor strike huge EMP massive EMP |
| 14709s | wi's got to hope they stay alive but |
| 14711s | they just can't 6 seconds left can they |
| 14713s | even get overtime no 4.8 seconds that |
| 14716s | means that even if microwave cap out |
| 14719s | they with over a minute left there'll |
| 14721s | still be a chance for Timeless on their |
| 14724s | attacking side so you know Moxy even |
| 14726s | though there was such insane plays from |
| 14728s | Michael wave and it was really clean |
| 14730s | from them eventually they got whle down |
| 14733s | and that's that's got to feel a little |
| 14734s | rough for Michel wave at this point I |
| 14737s | mean the Sombra pick is huge like the |
| 14739s | Sombra pick it did so much here's the |
| 14742s | thing when you run Sombra and you're |
| 14744s | running into a problematic tank right if |
| 14747s | it's something like a sigma or a ratra |
| 14749s | or a Reinhard they have the ability to |
| 14751s | block the hack with the shield doomfist |
| 14755s | doesn't get that so every single time |
| 14757s | that Mario or Zoe takes a hard |
| 14759s | engagement into Timeless |
| 14761s | aerial she both knows that she's not |
| 14764s | going to be able to stop the hack |
| 14766s | whoever is the target is going to get |
| 14768s | hacked out by bun lose a lot of that |
| 14771s | Mobility Tak so much more damage from |
| 14773s | the dock coming through as well and as a |
| 14775s | result time AAL basically got thrown a |
| 14779s | safety line an emergency blanket for the |
| 14782s | back line to just feel safe enough to be |
| 14784s | able to walk through and the second that |
| 14786s | they banked four ultimates off of the |
| 14788s | back of an EMP Michael wave a |
| 14790s | composition that requires so much |
| 14792s | Mobility so many of those engagements |
| 14795s | and disengagements rely on you having |
| 14796s | your abilities and cool down online and |
| 14799s | Sombra denies all of it yeah I mean I I |
| 14803s | defin personally I was questioning it |
| 14804s | but you know after you described that I |
| 14806s | I think it was clean you're right and |
| 14807s | now mhm I almost rocking the Tracer on |
| 14811s | their offensive side or sorry defensive |
| 14814s | sign maybe the deal with soe as well I |
| 14816s | mean so's going to be back on that Genji |
| 14818s | again yeah there's going to be a lot of |
| 14820s | Mobility coming through from microwave |
| 14821s | so bun has to go on Tracer GD to be able |
| 14823s | to control those alleys and make sure |
| 14825s | that microwave aren't able to slip |
| 14827s | through there she is as you can just see |
| 14829s | up in that High Ground currently a |
| 14831s | sniper with the sigma Shield has the |
| 14833s | presence of being able to just hold |
| 14835s | underneath train |
| 14836s | Carriage yeah working so far stopping |
| 14839s | Mari from walking in a little bit of |
| 14842s | pressure from the flank angles from |
| 14843s | Michael away Bun's there to match it |
| 14846s | right just consistently dealing with |
| 14848s | them however you know the heals coming |
| 14849s | through from wi wi's there to support |
| 14850s | Zoe on the flank so kind of the split |
| 14853s | engage for microwave now they kind of |
| 14855s | want to go for this engage have SE |
| 14856s | towards the fire trunk go towards sniper |
| 14858s | they decide to go for the tank player of |
| 14861s | Timeless but it doesn't work out yeah |
| 14862s | too many supports helping sniper wave at |
| 14865s | the moment and Mel wave really are kind |
| 14867s | of stuck in an awkward neutral fight at |
| 14868s | the moment as Timeless are building up |
| 14869s | good |
| 14870s | olds yeah they did mat to burn out IM |
| 14873s | motality field but unfortunately by |
| 14875s | waiting for those ultimates to come |
| 14876s | online microwave have not been able to |
| 14878s | actually take advantage of the opening |
| 14880s | of that un cool down huge anate Landing |
| 14882s | onto both sniper and Halo but bun finds |
| 14884s | the kill first sniper does fall after |
| 14887s | amplification for a nano boosted Mari |
| 14890s | yet again slams her way through the |
| 14892s | window and ensures that it stays open |
| 14895s | yeah I mean I completely misread that |
| 14896s | fight it was beautiful work from time or |
| 14898s | from Michael wave you know that drawn |
| 14901s | out fight worked in their advantage with |
| 14902s | the Nano engage and Timeless really |
| 14905s | probably should have made an earlier |
| 14907s | engage Moxy it looks like they're going |
| 14908s | to rec contest here |
| 14909s | coming yeah that anti was huge and it's |
| 14912s | hugee again sniper gets hit on the |
| 14913s | inside forces them to do to that point |
| 14915s | Mari just ready to dive on the supports |
| 14917s | make sure they have to use the lamp in |
| 14919s | the backline graic plock some sniper |
| 14921s | does it find any value buns able to find |
| 14923s | death and a great opening pick but now |
| 14925s | the blade from soe is here and it's huge |
| 14927s | both Halo and the Baptist tal |
| 14930s | immediately fall nobody else to touch |
| 14932s | now far too many ultimates for Michael |
| 14934s | wave and Bun's going to get staggered |
| 14936s | out |
| 14937s | too oh that is tragic Halo was |
| 14942s | 97% away from |
| 14944s | s when Zoe pulls out the Dragon Blade |
| 14948s | oh a couple of seconds of delay and |
| 14951s | Timeless aeral would have been able to |
| 14953s | sustain through it given the fact that |
| 14955s | agmr did not have the Nano to be able to |
| 14957s | match it does mean however that ESS F do |
| 14959s | have the S Bar to try and hold on and |
| 14961s | remain on this High Ground for as long |
| 14963s | as possible to deny de the opportunity |
| 14965s | of being able to set an overclock up off |
| 14968s | of the back of it as whisp is going to |
| 14970s | get aggressive and try and push Michael |
| 14972s | way back yeah whenever whis drops this |
| 14974s | overclock you have to be worried but |
| 14975s | they're able to just take some body shot |
| 14978s | shots on the side of Michael wave |
| 14980s | however they still lose soe oh I I don't |
| 14982s | know if so miss R the situation but they |
| 14985s | trying to go back in resulting in their |
| 14987s | demise and now Michel wave have to play |
| 14989s | back they've got the Nano overclock |
| 14991s | engage at the very least but they have |
| 14992s | to stabilize here Mar Incredibly Close |
| 14995s | to the metor strike they have to make |
| 14996s | sure however that Bon isn't able to pick |
| 14998s | up both of the supports coming through |
| 15001s | on the pulse bomb with that tra to there |
| 15003s | the pulse bom directly onto Zoe who's |
| 15005s | able to double jump away now we can see |
| 15007s | the n there Halo going to swap it out |
| 15009s | with that sound bar to try and sustain |
| 15011s | all the way through it and here's the |
| 15012s | thing death did not have sound control |
| 15015s | of the high time superal quite around |
| 15017s | theion ultimate does mean however that |
| 15020s | they've alive microwave |
| 15022s | foror now meteor strike from Mari help |
| 15025s | go a bit more space ATI also over the |
| 15028s | top side but are they able to find the |
| 15029s | kill through the immortality field it |
| 15031s | doesn't look like it ability is far too |
| 15033s | strong the Timeless are able to stay |
| 15035s | over the top side however the giving up |
| 15038s | cart space so it's a tradeoff probably |
| 15039s | willing to take it Timeless they can |
| 15041s | re-engage with a git of clux whenever |
| 15042s | they want yeah microwave trying to force |
| 15045s | the drop down ESS not running that |
| 15047s | symmetri if they go off The High Ground |
| 15048s | they have to give it up entirely as |
| 15050s | we're going to see the sigma Flex being |
| 15052s | used Sniper able to pick up so many no |
| 15055s | immortality field no Baptist on |
| 15057s | microwave side that is straight death |
| 15060s | this ESS superial with the ultimate know |
| 15062s | that they're going to translate it into |
| 15064s | kills and now Timeless obviously use all |
| 15066s | all those ults 2 minutes left now |
| 15068s | Michael wave and set up their engage |
| 15071s | right that rally has been big for them |
| 15072s | so far and also Zoe with the dry blades |
| 15074s | has actually been very |
| 15076s | good I mean they could potentially use |
| 15078s | that rally to give Zoe the over armor |
| 15081s | necessary to make the jump from low |
| 15084s | ground to high ground with the blade you |
| 15085s | know that Halo does not have her sound |
| 15087s | barrier back you know that sniper does |
| 15089s | not have the flux to connect onto the |
| 15092s | Genji as microwave posturing up who's |
| 15095s | going to be the opener they're |
| 15096s | definitely waiting for Zo coming with |
| 15098s | that BL confir death at wait a minute |
| 15100s | off the disruptor shot and maybe a body |
| 15102s | shot on the Halo able to find Halo early |
| 15104s | that's extremely detrimental for |
| 15106s | Timeless who were desperately needing |
| 15108s | speed to be make sure these rotates |
| 15111s | around or potentially even make an |
| 15112s | engage but M wave ready to go one minute |
| 15114s | 20 seconds left they're actually not |
| 15115s | even on the card they're just looking to |
| 15116s | get kills here and get some elims |
| 15118s | waiting for the engage over the top side |
| 15120s | but whisp tries to go for the shot but |
| 15122s | no shot hit right Nano building up |
| 15124s | actually melave playing patiently from |
| 15126s | that Timeless knows that it's coming |
| 15128s | maybe thought it's already ready so |
| 15129s | that's why they're kind of posturing for |
| 15131s | but now nanoade so he goes in finds the |
| 15133s | lamp and then immediately onto whisp and |
| 15135s | then onto Z two kills for so and then |
| 15138s | onto the sigma as well Force the sniper |
| 15141s | back but Timeless will take this dry |
| 15142s | fight maybe they'll get a |
| 15144s | recontest they're definitely going to be |
| 15146s | able to have a recontest Halo is so |
| 15147s | close to the sign whereas he's going to |
| 15150s | have amplification Matrix to buy them |
| 15151s | the space as well to get through the |
| 15153s | choke the question is can someone touch |
| 15155s | sniper still on the sigma will be able |
| 15157s | to walk forward and find the cont AGM to |
| 15160s | soon where oh my God over gives them the |
| 15165s | kill they desperately need with 1.9 M |
| 15168s | left in 26 seconds that was clutch from |
| 15171s | Timeless oh and Dustin Michael wave gave |
| 15174s | everything in that fight death is going |
| 15177s | to have overclock but you can see the |
| 15179s | desperation coming through from this |
| 15180s | team wicker off of the BEDA not thinking |
| 15184s | about peeling for the Anna just needing |
| 15185s | to be able to have the speed of the |
| 15188s | to be able to tap death no choice but |
| 15191s | open with the overclock and sniper shuts |
| 15193s | it down sniper is a sniper in the |
| 15196s | building amazing shot on the death now |
| 15200s | microwave have to touch the objective |
| 15202s | sure sniper graic Fu got cancelled but |
| 15204s | it might not matter snipers able to find |
| 15206s | Mari I mean who else is there to touch |
| 15208s | from microwave AJ Falls Lucio coming |
| 15212s | into the delay fortunately for microwave |
| 15214s | nobody else here and it looks like today |
| 15217s | Moxy in the upper finals we're going to |
| 15218s | have it yet again another exciting match |
| 15221s | as Timeless ethereal will bring us one |
| 15223s | to one well you have to remember they |
| 15226s | got to choose the map they got to take |
| 15228s | us to Midtown and they do it because |
| 15230s | they know when we move into point B it |
| 15234s | just becomes so much harder for that |
| 15235s | Genji to be able to find Value on the |
| 15237s | attacking side having the defensive team |
| 15239s | being able to control all of those |
| 15241s | chokes and having The High Ground to be |
| 15243s | able to B on to as well where you're |
| 15245s | able to distort line of sight back your |
| 15247s | or backline entirely away if you're |
| 15250s | running that Baptist alongside the Lucio |
| 15252s | and as a result every single time that |
| 15255s | we saw these fights begin from microwave |
| 15257s | side it was off of a lot of seconds |
| 15260s | drained away with them having to posture |
| 15262s | up and build into Al fire for the serier |
| 15265s | or try and find an initial pick to Spook |
| 15268s | everyone from timless aeral side off of |
| 15270s | The High Ground and push them into |
| 15271s | disengage mode where having the abbility |
| 15274s | of the dest and the Genji massively |
| 15276s | benefits Michael wave because they have |
| 15278s | the speed and the mechanical press to be |
| 15281s | able to collapse in on the disengagement |
| 15283s | but time aerial what a play for time |
| 15286s | they're able to make aerial indeed they |
| 15289s | forc Michael wave into throwing so much |
| 15292s | out in a second to last fight Dustin |
| 15296s | there's nothing left in the tank when we |
| 15298s | head into that overtime fight and as a |
| 15301s | result it's just death trying to come in |
| 15304s | the heroic play of the overclock sniper |
| 15307s | with the accre just immediately |
| 15309s | connecting onto the sojan slammed any |
| 15312s | opportunity of a turn around straight |
| 15314s | shot yeah that that's definitely the |
| 15315s | main thing that was keeping microwave |
| 15317s | alive was death on the sojourn and |
| 15320s | Timeless by the way on this push you |
| 15321s | know that was a very clean offense and |
| 15324s | we go back to Michael waves offense you |
| 15326s | know at points they did stall out and |
| 15329s | maybe that was due to them you know not |
| 15331s | really like maybe over committing |
| 15332s | ultimates in that fight in particular |
| 15333s | but also this counter engage the macro |
| 15336s | from Timeless was truly perfect |
| 15338s | especially with support ultimates you |
| 15339s | saw the beat there and Matrix and then |
| 15342s | sniper at the very end was absolutely |
| 15344s | clutch for |
| 15345s | Timeless I mean you saw right the fact |
| 15348s | that they very quickly realized okay |
| 15350s | there's another fight afterwards we're |
| 15352s | going to try and take this fight as dry |
| 15353s | as possible we're going to come back in |
| 15355s | with all of our ultimates available and |
| 15357s | we're just going to be able to body |
| 15359s | through all of that potential dive |
| 15362s | coming through from the Genji and the |
| 15364s | doomfest who in a fight when you're |
| 15365s | going up against things like this Sigma |
| 15368s | doesn't have a lot of kill potential you |
| 15370s | don't do a whole burst of damage it's |
| 15372s | very slow chips over time it's why Genji |
| 15374s | is so good to being able to just either |
| 15377s | push Target low enough that the D is |
| 15379s | able to find a kill or vice versa and |
| 15382s | unfortunately in that fight they were |
| 15383s | just going up against way too much |
| 15385s | damage burst they were yeah I mean and |
| 15387s | if we look at the stats too here Mony I |
| 15389s | mean whs was sure getting out damaged |
| 15392s | but obviously in terms of the elim |
| 15394s | department were really kind of coming |
| 15396s | through for their team there I mean an |
| 15398s | extra three final blows too same amount |
| 15399s | of ultimates less deaths I mean what do |
| 15402s | you think about this like soj matchup in |
| 15404s | particular Moxy is it the the damage |
| 15407s | that you really need a bit more or |
| 15408s | obviously those elims are kind of the |
| 15409s | bigger deal for this team I would say |
| 15412s | elim it's very easy to sort of distort |
| 15415s | serjan stat stats right because a lot of |
| 15418s | the time serons are just trying to poke |
| 15420s | away to be able to build up the alt fire |
| 15422s | so you're going to be doing a lot of |
| 15424s | damage and you also have to remember as |
| 15425s | well de is shooting into a Sigma which |
| 15428s | means that you're going to be able to |
| 15429s | accumulate damage on that Shield |
| 15432s | pressure as opposed to wisps every |
| 15434s | single time whisp is hitting anything |
| 15436s | there is no shield on the other side |
| 15439s | right so as a result every single time |
| 15442s | your suron is connecting it's actually |
| 15444s | dealing damage directly to health as |
| 15447s | opposed to Dev who first has to chunk |
| 15448s | through not only Sigma Shield but also |
| 15451s | then bait out that Sigma shift which was |
| 15453s | a huge sort of hinging plan of Michael |
| 15456s | wave for all of the sigma cool down so |
| 15458s | the lamp comes out and immediately opens |
| 15461s | the door for the Genji and the doomfist |
| 15462s | to be able to jump on the sigma find the |
| 15464s | kill deny the tank from being able to |
| 15466s | Anchor a composition and immediately |
| 15468s | chaos is Unleashed and that something at |
| 15470s | the Genji and the dest riv and now Marx |
| 15472s | we will be going to surasa you know this |
| 15475s | is a map where you know in flasho in |
| 15477s | general I I think a lot of teams like to |
| 15479s | favor those dive compositions however we |
| 15481s | still see Sigma still do pretty well |
| 15484s | here I mean is flasho in general kind of |
| 15487s | this like hybrid between both you know |
| 15489s | King of the Hill AKA control and then |
| 15491s | payload because the maps are so big I |
| 15493s | mean what favors what like what which |
| 15495s | composition you think is favored more is |
| 15497s | it going to be those dive compositions |
| 15498s | on surasa or do you think it's going to |
| 15500s | be those |
| 15501s | sigmas I mean I think it depends on the |
| 15503s | team's identity right like you've said a |
| 15506s | lot of flasho is about having the |
| 15507s | mobility on these Heroes to be able to |
| 15510s | take advantage of all of the different |
| 15511s | angles that open up some of these points |
| 15514s | so that you can out rotate your enemy |
| 15516s | but if you pick a comp position that is |
| 15518s | really good into dive and you have |
| 15521s | control of the space and you're able to |
| 15522s | win the first fight and then bunker up |
| 15525s | on that point a lot of the momentum of |
| 15527s | those dive compositions entirely gets |
| 15529s | taken apart because it becomes very |
| 15531s | obvious which angle you're approaching |
| 15533s | from and if you decide voluntarily to |
| 15535s | split the team you're leaving yourself |
| 15537s | incredibly vulnerable because a huge |
| 15539s | part of the dive composition is that you |
| 15541s | try and buy each other the space to St |
| 15544s | on those fights a lot |
| 15546s | longer curious to see which one actually |
| 15548s | comes through I like how you mentioned |
| 15549s | that the team identity really matters a |
| 15552s | lot here as well in surasa I think that |
| 15554s | um you know both of these teams have |
| 15556s | been playing pretty consistent |
| 15558s | throughout the tournament and you know |
| 15559s | especially for for a team like Timeless |
| 15561s | to come back on Midtown you're right |
| 15563s | that was a big M pick for them um but |
| 15565s | you know really to deal with things like |
| 15567s | death popping off so Jordan right that |
| 15569s | overall macro play this team looks kind |
| 15572s | of revitalized especially after map one |
| 15574s | where if you lose 20 Moxy me you know |
| 15576s | that could definitely kind of impact the |
| 15577s | mentals a little bit moving forward |
| 15579s | right yeah what ESS ofil are also doing |
| 15582s | by the way is making sure that they're |
| 15584s | not predictable and how are they're |
| 15585s | going to counter this composition if you |
| 15587s | think about it they've gone up against |
| 15589s | this Genji composition multiple times |
| 15592s | but they've never taken the same |
| 15593s | approach and this is what I was talking |
| 15595s | about when we were breaking down the |
| 15596s | rosters before how their flexibility is |
| 15599s | one of their biggest strengths because |
| 15601s | if you're trying to run this composition |
| 15603s | if you think okay terop have struggled |
| 15605s | with this in the past we're going to run |
| 15606s | it into them you also want to know how |
| 15608s | this team is going to react but |
| 15610s | sometimes they've gone for the echo |
| 15612s | other times they've gone from the Sombra |
| 15613s | both times they found value and as a |
| 15616s | result in the matches after this no |
| 15618s | matter what happens it's not going to be |
| 15620s | an easy adjustment for a lot of these |
| 15622s | other teams to go okay they struggled |
| 15624s | against this so we'll just run it yeah |
| 15626s | that's that's really unique I think like |
| 15628s | to specifically to the radiant |
| 15630s | tournament like it feels like mhm you |
| 15632s | know compared to other tournaments we |
| 15634s | definitely don't see those like counter |
| 15635s | picks kind of coming through right like |
| 15636s | I know know I always talk about this |
| 15638s | with people like about the you know the |
| 15640s | the intricacies of OverWatch and you |
| 15642s | know the the brain power acquired when |
| 15644s | it comes to just like counter picking I |
| 15646s | feel like at the at like the very |
| 15648s | tippity top like a lot of the you know |
| 15650s | OverWatch um Pro like a lot of the a lot |
| 15653s | of the top top tier one Talent like it |
| 15654s | feels like they don't even make those |
| 15656s | swaps right it feels like they're not |
| 15657s | even using their brain it's like we're |
| 15658s | just going to play this composition and |
| 15661s | if it doesn't work it doesn't work and |
| 15662s | we change it next tournament but we're |
| 15664s | just going to lock to this but it feels |
| 15666s | like today like with these two teams |
| 15668s | Moxy you're right they're making those |
| 15669s | swamps there really is a lot of cereal |
| 15671s | gameplay going on outside of just the |
| 15674s | mechanical gameplay but more so just |
| 15676s | like the macro of it and I think that is |
| 15678s | very unique in particular to the radiant |
| 15680s | Heroes |
| 15680s | major mhm I mean I'm just really happy |
| 15683s | that we're seeing a lot of these teams |
| 15684s | locked toward something like the |
| 15686s | doomfist even though in the past a lot |
| 15688s | of people have said doomfist isn't in |
| 15690s | that great a position for a tank he's |
| 15692s | incredibly selfish we've seen that |
| 15694s | running that doomfist where you do get |
| 15696s | that pressure you have to make that |
| 15698s | decision at 50/50 do use all of your |
| 15701s | cooldowns to be able to punch back and |
| 15703s | bail your team out thus giving way too |
| 15705s | much space up to the other side or do |
| 15707s | you just have to cut your losses except |
| 15709s | that your back line is going to get |
| 15710s | sacrificed and you still need to be able |
| 15712s | to play aggressive and keep retaining |
| 15715s | that aggression so that even though your |
| 15717s | backline is gone you're still retaining |
| 15719s | the space that you've already created |
| 15721s | for your DPS to work off |
| 15723s | of we're waiting into surasa here as we |
| 15726s | get some nice shots Moxy you know this |
| 15729s | map has such a beautiful sky box it's a |
| 15730s | shame that you don't see it half it's |
| 15732s | very pretty it's it's a shame you don't |
| 15734s | see it half the time cuz you're looking |
| 15735s | all the other buildings in the game |
| 15736s | right it's just like they made such a |
| 15738s | big beautiful map and then I'm just |
| 15740s | trying to kill this Genji in the point |
| 15741s | like I can't even see it like look at |
| 15742s | this one like this the walls are too big |
| 15744s | how am I going to see the Skybox here I |
| 15746s | can't see all the work that I like the |
| 15748s | fact that these walls are so tall cuz I |
| 15750s | love playing arari on Sarah rasa I will |
| 15753s | admit I am one of those horrible support |
| 15756s | players that this second that we win a |
| 15757s | fight I'm like okay swap toari put my |
| 15760s | pile on as high and as unreachable as |
| 15763s | possible and let everyone just |
| 15766s | immediately get bodied if they try and |
| 15768s | walk forward and into a choke because I |
| 15771s | don't think we're going to see anyone |
| 15772s | lock something like an Arisa to be able |
| 15774s | to use fortifi to push through those |
| 15776s | chokes and take that cool down off of |
| 15778s | the table I'm just glad a l is not like |
| 15781s | in The Meta at the moment because of the |
| 15782s | fact that um you know usually people in |
| 15785s | chat are like oh my God you support by |
| 15787s | the way support by the way whenever a |
| 15788s | Baptist gets a kill lar gets to kill |
| 15790s | somebody chat types support by the way |
| 15792s | it's like this is just like people are |
| 15794s | just ridiculous with their comments |
| 15796s | about about like support players that |
| 15798s | can get kills it's like oh you surprise |
| 15800s | surprise Baptist whose entire kid is |
| 15803s | based around you know dealing DPS and |
| 15805s | healing can get kills guys I mean |
| 15806s | amazing you know great you got killed by |
| 15808s | support and then you just blame the |
| 15810s | support for being good anyways that's |
| 15811s | just a personal gri regardless Michael |
| 15813s | wave sticking with that doomfist in on |
| 15815s | the side of timeless etheral I think we |
| 15817s | saw this coming Moxy they're going to be |
| 15818s | sticking with that so alongside the |
| 15821s | sigma yeah it's really going to benefit |
| 15823s | whoever wins this first fight Michael |
| 15825s | wave with that higher Mobility |
| 15827s | composition time with SE if they win |
| 15829s | this fight and can just bunker up on |
| 15830s | that point they're going to find it a |
| 15832s | lot easier to deal with that dive but a |
| 15834s | gorgeous anade immediately capitalized |
| 15836s | upon so he gets a huge Dash onto Halo |
| 15839s | that's been consistent for Michael W is |
| 15841s | ajmr hitting those antes now with that |
| 15844s | main advantage here they're just going |
| 15845s | to be able to push on in |
| 15847s | Timeless zal who have to play it slow |
| 15849s | right however microwave prioritizing the |
| 15851s | objective first before they go on that |
| 15852s | engage and now looking towards Timeless |
| 15854s | the time was backed up and look at that |
| 15855s | another thre person in grenade from agmr |
| 15858s | amazing work from that Anna build |
| 15860s | towards that ultimate however doesn't |
| 15862s | result in a kill so because of that |
| 15864s | waiting for that cool to come back Zoe |
| 15866s | playing so aggressive this has also been |
| 15867s | a consistent for microwave and that |
| 15868s | results in them getting picked oh no |
| 15870s | that's terrible for this team who needs |
| 15872s | their Genji player alive and now ajar |
| 15875s | back in a corner has to play their lives |
| 15878s | microwave maybe they were on different |
| 15879s | pages there Moxy Zoe potentially want to |
| 15881s | go for that engage but nobody else was |
| 15884s | ready well look at what that aggression |
| 15886s | has done however agmr so close to the |
| 15889s | Nano boost I think Zoe wanted to play |
| 15891s | aggressive as a result to try and build |
| 15893s | up the blade a little bit faster to be |
| 15895s | able to keep Pace with the Anna |
| 15897s | unfortunately she sticks around in the |
| 15899s | disruptor shot coming through from wisps |
| 15901s | a little bit too long goes incredibly |
| 15902s | low has to use the deflect and then try |
| 15904s | and get back to the rest of the team |
| 15906s | time will see the opening deny the |
| 15908s | Genji's disengagement deny the Genji's |
| 15910s | existence and then move on to agmr after |
| 15912s | buns being able to infiltrate the |
| 15914s | backline and bait that sleep onto cool |
| 15916s | down as time aeral sniper getting |
| 15918s | punched into by Mari doesn't result in a |
| 15921s | kill but has got melave potentially the |
| 15923s | opportunity to close up the distance but |
| 15925s | so much pressure on tamari she goes down |
| 15928s | I mean that's so good with the ant |
| 15930s | Matrix from Z eventually Timeless able |
| 15933s | to get that kill sniper with that damage |
| 15935s | in the through but now 80% on the board |
| 15938s | Moxy this is going to be either a really |
| 15940s | hard R test or not at all it it has to |
| 15943s | be just save in next point unfortunately |
| 15946s | a huge part of flash point is |
| 15947s | identifying when a point is lost and |
| 15949s | holding on to those ultimates so they |
| 15950s | don't go to waste and you can see |
| 15952s | Michael wave that they're not anywhere |
| 15954s | near they're going to give up the point |
| 15956s | they're going to let time AAL keep that |
| 15957s | one and posture up to be able to cut |
| 15960s | time superial off where the sigma |
| 15962s | composition hits the most it's Mobility |
| 15964s | if they're able to catch Halo sniper is |
| 15966s | absolutely dead in the water with the |
| 15969s | lack of mobility and ability to move |
| 15971s | forward and try and pressure L backless |
| 15974s | sitting on the |
| 15975s | point back microwave setting up their |
| 15978s | engage Toby's close towards that blade |
| 15981s | just trying to get a little bit of poke |
| 15982s | before they're ready to go for it and |
| 15983s | Timeless are completely aware of that |
| 15985s | situation maybe they could build up |
| 15986s | towards Halo's beat drop as well |
| 15989s | potentially counter that engage but they |
| 15990s | don't have it just yet now the N blade |
| 15991s | comes up Point unlocks but I mean oh my |
| 15994s | two kills for soe in that fight by make |
| 15996s | it three on the whisp two for one and |
| 15998s | then immediately adds whsp onto the |
| 16001s | table Unfortunately they didn't counter |
| 16003s | that engage there for Timeless Imperial |
| 16005s | maybe due to the point unlocking it was |
| 16007s | a little awkward but now M well they |
| 16009s | wanted to but Mari jumped in at the same |
| 16012s | time everything that th aeral were |
| 16014s | planning to use to counter the Genji got |
| 16016s | Beed out by the doomfest |
| 16018s | forest yeah you know ESS andal have some |
| 16021s | solid ultimates as well unfortunately or |
| 16024s | sorry to rec contest with now Michael |
| 16026s | you know what do they do here on their |
| 16027s | hold this |
| 16029s | time what are you doing oh she's getting |
| 16032s | in the back line wer and AAR playing |
| 16035s | from The High Ground so it's a lot |
| 16036s | harder for the Tracer to be able to jump |
| 16038s | onto the back line and yeah is just |
| 16039s | going to be contesting that point and |
| 16041s | trying to find the flip and they do |
| 16043s | Tyler superial bit microwave into a |
| 16046s | fight off the point and flip the point |
| 16049s | that was clean from bun in Timeless to |
| 16051s | go on that engage with the beat drop too |
| 16053s | so win that fight and got that point |
| 16056s | like you said said early on that should |
| 16057s | surely help them in the Mac of this game |
| 16060s | yeah because now they've met that win |
| 16062s | condition right they've got control of |
| 16063s | the spacing microwave have to dive into |
| 16066s | them and we're going to see the exact |
| 16068s | same occur as that first point Bon is |
| 16070s | well going to keep harassing the back |
| 16072s | line stopping microwave from being able |
| 16074s | to construct a solid dive with just the |
| 16077s | Frat of the pulse bomb look at how far |
| 16080s | microwave are having to rotate look at |
| 16081s | the amount of players they're having to |
| 16083s | leave behind to try and figure where |
| 16084s | this Tracer is in a perfect position to |
| 16087s | deal with them too here we go or here |
| 16088s | they go whs the P spom unfortunately but |
| 16090s | that's still the pressure from bun kind |
| 16093s | of just poking them through the back as |
| 16094s | well forces wi to go for that 80% on the |
| 16096s | board too f is dealing with the Doom |
| 16099s | dive Mari still has that ultimate as |
| 16101s | well to sustain going to hold on to it |
| 16103s | now though walks back towards that point |
| 16105s | towards the rent of their team but Z |
| 16108s | consistently doing a lot of work for |
| 16110s | Timeless at the moment just really |
| 16111s | waiting for that ATM play so patient |
| 16113s | perfect lamp as well then two kills for |
| 16115s | them too over time taking down nobody |
| 16117s | else here I mean microwave just has to |
| 16120s | stagger towards that point as timeus |
| 16122s | etheral go up two they have one more |
| 16124s | objective to complete flash |
| 16126s | point they lost that fight off of just |
| 16130s | the paranoia from where bun was playing |
| 16132s | as Tracer if a dive composition isn't |
| 16135s | taking a fight then you're not face |
| 16137s | tanking to build Nano boost for ajmr as |
| 16140s | a result when the fight actually kicks |
| 16142s | off they don't have the ultimates to be |
| 16143s | able to chunk through it time on out yet |
| 16147s | again leaving bun behind to try and find |
| 16149s | infiltration into the back line so he's |
| 16151s | so close to the blade if they can find a |
| 16153s | kill on AGM they're going to deny it |
| 16155s | entirely especially if they that close |
| 16156s | to S barrier r on the front |
| 16160s | line towards that blade wh gets booped |
| 16163s | away Mari 2 so almost pressured off the |
| 16167s | angle they want to find at whis already |
| 16168s | used that cool down to leave so he kind |
| 16170s | of wants to go for it but then regroup |
| 16171s | towards the rest of the team well |
| 16172s | Timeless already is here on the |
| 16173s | objective so they get the flip nanoade |
| 16175s | comes out now onto sniper is a beaten |
| 16178s | there in time no it's not unfortunately |
| 16180s | Halo could not save sniper nor could an |
| 16182s | immortality field though with does trade |
| 16184s | back death so that's something here to |
| 16186s | disrupt death with the overclock as well |
| 16189s | wh goes but it's s to immediately |
| 16191s | Landing now as Mari to find a bit more |
| 16193s | buns able to find the pulse bomb off of |
| 16196s | very good re-engage now for Timeless |
| 16199s | however Mari still here towards the |
| 16200s | point trying to contest the objective |
| 16203s | Halo's able to find them he will go down |
| 16205s | to |
| 16207s | able to trade that back though and Bun's |
| 16208s | able to find one two I mean this is so |
| 16210s | far brutal for Michael wave is timeless |
| 16212s | get now up to |
| 16214s | 60% yeah cuz they had control of that |
| 16216s | point the entire way through that's why |
| 16219s | we saw the sound bar come through from |
| 16221s | Halo even though she'd lost sniper |
| 16223s | already and yet again bun is there to |
| 16226s | stop microwave from being able to rotate |
| 16229s | there is one last fight and time will |
| 16231s | know they're going to be able to win it |
| 16233s | as long as they can keep microwave off |
| 16234s | that point coming to touch 90% on the |
| 16237s | board here sniper yeah already going for |
| 16239s | that back line just go for the solo flux |
| 16241s | oh actually double in that ultimate AJ |
| 16243s | Mark goes down sniper just has to |
| 16245s | disrupt Mari now can't even use or death |
| 16247s | can't even use the overclock for next |
| 16249s | fight that's already two kills just off |
| 16250s | the back of perfect Sigma gameplay I |
| 16253s | mean Timeless ethereal now looks like |
| 16256s | there's nothing microwave can do to stop |
| 16258s | them from winning this map and going up |
| 16260s | one in the series to potentially bring |
| 16262s | us to two to one and they do so one more |
| 16266s | map now for Timeless to win that was |
| 16268s | awesome for them on |
| 16270s | zasa Yeah clean Mechanicals but such |
| 16273s | smart macro play coming through from |
| 16275s | them they identify really quickly that |
| 16277s | even though all of those off angles and |
| 16280s | amount of approaches that are open to |
| 16282s | microwave should benefit that dive with |
| 16284s | the surprise element it plays perfectly |
| 16287s | into bun Fair Factor we start playing |
| 16289s | over watch Dustin the second that we |
| 16291s | move on to Second point we start playing |
| 16293s | a horror |
| 16294s | game yeah yeah we do I mean what do you |
| 16297s | do versus that right that's that's why |
| 16298s | tank players are are so freaking strong |
| 16300s | is that they could just sit in your face |
| 16302s | as well with you know obviously sniper |
| 16305s | that opposite in their last fight by the |
| 16306s | way not living up to them there more |
| 16308s | more like just like Melee prep hero from |
| 16310s | aob I like just disgustingly shutting |
| 16313s | down anything microwave could do it's |
| 16314s | it's it's tough for ajmr too because I |
| 16316s | feel like they're playing fine and |
| 16318s | they're trying to do as much work as |
| 16319s | possible but there's a weird disconnect |
| 16321s | right now for them it feels like Moxy |
| 16323s | between Zoe and ajmr right it seems like |
| 16326s | agmr is pressured by the tank player and |
| 16328s | there's not much that so could do on the |
| 16330s | front line right trying to play as |
| 16331s | aggressive as they can I don't know is |
| 16332s | that the desync there that's setting up |
| 16334s | Michael wave kind of for a bit of a |
| 16336s | disaster or is a matter of Timeless |
| 16338s | ethereal kind of just going a wrench him |
| 16340s | into their plans right now I mean it's a |
| 16343s | huge thing of Timeless aerial just |
| 16344s | stopping Michael wave from having the |
| 16346s | comt factor into running dive as we've |
| 16349s | talked about right even When dive was |
| 16352s | first initially a composition in |
| 16353s | OverWatch the entire strategy if you |
| 16356s | think back to when we had 2 CP and we |
| 16358s | were coming into places like AIS if you |
| 16361s | were attacking you would run the Winston |
| 16363s | you would have the Anna you would send |
| 16364s | your Winston onto The High Ground |
| 16366s | initially on the platform that the |
| 16369s | Defenders had the Anna would be able to |
| 16371s | heal up the Winston who would face tank |
| 16373s | for the Nana boost and only when you had |
| 16374s | the Nana boost would you actually commit |
| 16376s | to the fight and it's something that |
| 16378s | Timeless saer will know incredibly well |
| 16380s | again because of how flexible this |
| 16382s | composition are they've played dive they |
| 16385s | know how sets up they know it's wind |
| 16387s | conditions so what they're doing is |
| 16389s | essentially seeing that potential |
| 16391s | disconnect between the Genji having to |
| 16392s | play a lot more aggressive to keep up |
| 16394s | with all of the old charge that the Anna |
| 16396s | is picking up from the Poke coming |
| 16398s | through the sigma composition on the |
| 16399s | other side and they know that it's going |
| 16402s | to be forcing y Genji into having to |
| 16404s | play a lot more aggressive potentially |
| 16406s | out of position to be able to match the |
| 16409s | ultimate charge up with the Nano boost |
| 16411s | and they're pushing as much pressure and |
| 16414s | applying all of it on on to both the |
| 16416s | Genji and the Anna separately to |
| 16418s | intentionally drive a wedge between them |
| 16420s | because they have seen and witnessed and |
| 16423s | struggled against the nanoblade matchup |
| 16426s | for every single time we've seen them |
| 16428s | before this match they know that the win |
| 16431s | condition for the other side is the |
| 16432s | nanoblade and they are doing everything |
| 16435s | in their power to stop it from aligning |
| 16437s | it's so smart coming through from this |
| 16439s | team well we'll have to see if they can |
| 16441s | keep it up obviously at that map point |
| 16444s | but before we see that next map before |
| 16446s | we see if Timeless can make that 3-1 |
| 16448s | Victory we're going to go to a short |
| 16449s | break so when we come back we'll see you |
| 16451s | guys for map number |

| 16639s | welcome back everybody to the radiant |
| 16640s | Heroes major three upper bracket finals |
| 16643s | at the moment we have Michael wave |
| 16645s | versus Timeless theal and microwave back |
| 16648s | backs are against the wall after surasa |
| 16651s | that last game went all Timeless |
| 16653s | ethereal just absolute dominant |
| 16655s | performance for them they're looking to |
| 16656s | close it out right here on this map |
| 16658s | number four |
| 16659s | Moxy yeah it's definitely going to be a |
| 16662s | little bit of an uphill battle as well |
| 16663s | because microwave like they have been |
| 16666s | able to beat Timeless aeral in the past |
| 16668s | but a lot of it was off of Timeless |
| 16670s | aeral struggling against this Genji and |
| 16672s | doomfist mixup you can see that they |
| 16675s | have seen some of these teams picking |
| 16677s | that composition and they have been |
| 16679s | working at being able to counter it not |
| 16682s | just one way but by multiple we've seen |
| 16684s | the echo we've seen the somra we've seen |
| 16686s | BN go on to Tracer and just decide to |
| 16689s | entirely disrupt the cycle that the |
| 16692s | Genji and Anna are trying to put up |
| 16695s | together this next map is going to be |
| 16697s | coloso it's really interesting to see |
| 16699s | what exactly time aeral are going to opt |
| 16702s | into because surely they know that |
| 16705s | potentially they're going up against |
| 16706s | that dest Genji once again yeah and you |
| 16710s | know if you're them I mean you you got |
| 16712s | to feel solid about it too right it |
| 16714s | feels like Timeless are kind of |
| 16715s | countering the composition I don't know |
| 16716s | if it's due to soe potentially not |
| 16721s | getting the value that she wants out of |
| 16722s | the Genji like what what do you think |
| 16724s | the reasoning is behind this stom fist |
| 16726s | comp not working as well because you |
| 16727s | know obviously it's tough right like |
| 16729s | so's got to be that carry Genji but also |
| 16732s | your backline needs to play aggressive |
| 16734s | and then if they're getting shut out by |
| 16735s | sniper like what do you do you know well |
| 16738s | it was working for them if you remember |
| 16740s | they'd won the first fight on surasa the |
| 16744s | problem is they're just not really able |
| 16746s | to OU any of the kills afterwards |
| 16748s | because time aeral they see okay we've |
| 16750s | lost the first fight we don't have the |
| 16752s | Lucio we're going to back off gracefully |
| 16754s | we know that we can't afford to try and |
| 16756s | keep applying this pressure because the |
| 16757s | sigma without that Lucio is going to be |
| 16760s | way too easy for the dive to be able to |
| 16762s | jump on and as a result they play the |
| 16765s | long con it feels a lot of the time like |
| 16768s | wave when they see those instances they |
| 16771s | sort of have a lot of understanding on |
| 16774s | when to go right we saw the ant need |
| 16776s | come through from agmr it was hitting |
| 16778s | multiple people the reaction and |
| 16781s | coordination from Michael wave as a team |
| 16783s | was instantaneous which is exactly what |
| 16785s | you wanted to be nari would punch in zo |
| 16788s | would go for the dash either of them |
| 16790s | would be able to pick up some of those |
| 16792s | kills onto Timeless aeral side but the |
| 16795s | problem was after that initial kill |
| 16797s | there was never really any followup and |
| 16800s | a huge part of that was time with saal |
| 16802s | just coming through and disrupting any |
| 16804s | coordination afterwards now that we head |
| 16806s | on to push if Timeless aeral are able to |
| 16809s | continue disrupting this coordination |
| 16811s | cycle between microwave it's going to be |
| 16813s | really hard for this team to recover I |
| 16815s | like that that was great analysis I |
| 16817s | think Timeless theor re was kind of |
| 16819s | playing like uh maybe like this like |
| 16821s | defensive boxer like purposely playing |
| 16823s | the range it was so smart from them and |
| 16826s | and now Timeless zero going to have bun |
| 16827s | back on that Tracer a consistent Factor |
| 16829s | then however you know difference for |
| 16831s | microwave here Moxy they're having Mari |
| 16832s | run the winst yeah Mari on the Winston |
| 16835s | going to have a little bit more |
| 16836s | protection right when she Dives in it |
| 16838s | puts a little bit less pressure onto |
| 16840s | agmr to always hold line of side onto |
| 16843s | tank Halo going incredibly low the |
| 16845s | target of that dive they're trying to |
| 16847s | bait Z into using that immortality field |
| 16849s | a little bit too early but as a result |
| 16851s | microwave able to get a lot of distance |
| 16853s | already picked up as de trying to build |
| 16855s | up the AL fire on the soan racing |
| 16858s | against wisps try and find that first |
| 16860s | yeah they're lagging behind the heels at |
| 16862s | the moment right I mean wi and agmr are |
| 16863s | going to have to really carry this team |
| 16865s | back into it and they're doing so so |
| 16868s | far also utility used from sniper so |
| 16872s | maybe AAR can go for an anti grenade |
| 16874s | onto them and find the kill Nano Winston |
| 16877s | though Nano Winston that's why Mari is |
| 16879s | going in aggressively yet again like I |
| 16882s | said it's the Temple of anua strategy is |
| 16884s | that a creation from sniper almost did |
| 16887s | ajm directly Inari going forward Z's |
| 16890s | able to find the kill as well on to whsp |
| 16893s | I mean that was perfect for Michael wave |
| 16895s | they played patient able to find the |
| 16897s | re-engage and through that they're able |
| 16899s | to win this fight I mean they played |
| 16901s | aggressive originally but came back |
| 16903s | you're able to fend off |
| 16904s | Timeless but because they played |
| 16906s | aggressive agmr got to rock it up to |
| 16908s | that Nano charge Mari knows that she can |
| 16910s | go that aggressive because she has the |
| 16912s | bubble to be able to fall back on if |
| 16913s | time was aerial try and chase after the |
| 16916s | winon knowing that the cool down is |
| 16917s | going to be off they run directly into |
| 16920s | death sign of sight and you do not run |
| 16921s | directly into middle of coloso because |
| 16924s | that's is set up and looking to snipe |
| 16927s | Michael wave got the Nano and as well as |
| 16930s | the overclock coming up a consistent |
| 16931s | play for them has been that Nano |
| 16933s | overclock however Halo's able to find |
| 16935s | dead off of I'm assuming some assistance |
| 16938s | but there's no assistance in the kill |
| 16939s | feed so whisp gets dwia as well I mean |
| 16942s | microwave their planes are just falling |
| 16944s | apart off of a nice rail gun shot from |
| 16946s | wisp secondly but also Halo with the |
| 16949s | opening kill yeah and Bun yet again |
| 16952s | making sure that none of microwave are |
| 16955s | able to infiltrate into that back line |
| 16957s | patrolling with that pulse bomb to deter |
| 16959s | any potential dive and forward |
| 16961s | aggression coming through from either |
| 16963s | the Winston or the Genji as a result |
| 16965s | time zal are able to post whisps up onto |
| 16968s | The High Ground to stop microwave from |
| 16970s | being able to contest and they're going |
| 16971s | to be able to pick up the maximum |
| 16974s | distance they take the lead because Halo |
| 16976s | keeps pushing the objective and it's a |
| 16977s | trade to one for one on the top side no |
| 16980s | ultimates Ed besides that P spawn both |
| 16983s | teams giving each other a ton of respect |
| 16984s | here right |
| 16985s | space has been given Timeless back up |
| 16988s | overclock from Death able to find Halo |
| 16990s | on the retreat soie also finds bun so |
| 16992s | even though Timeless were able to find |
| 16994s | an edge it appears they're going to lose |
| 16996s | it unless something crazy happens but oh |
| 16999s | my God what a shot from death and the Z |
| 17001s | coming back from Spawn that's why you |
| 17003s | don't just waste your Exo boost sadly |
| 17005s | for Z going down there results in kind |
| 17008s | of becoming a bit of a feeder as Michael |
| 17010s | wave now take the edge potentially Z was |
| 17012s | trying to use the exibit to get an angle |
| 17015s | snip no there was nothing there was |
| 17017s | there was no reason the sigma was |
| 17020s | separated okay there was no |
| 17022s | reason I have TR Michael coming into |
| 17026s | this next fight with four ultimates Nano |
| 17029s | boost and blade available for this team |
| 17031s | but Halo can immediately shut it down |
| 17033s | sound it comes no it doesn't come |
| 17036s | through Zoomie with the dash points |
| 17038s | soluo and Halo just doesn't have the |
| 17040s | time she can't commit to the sound |
| 17041s | barrier yeah now going to have to come |
| 17043s | back from Spawn |
| 17045s | it's a great opening kill now whis |
| 17047s | trying to come back eiz with the |
| 17048s | overclock able to find wi who is |
| 17050s | rallying in that fight sniper also finds |
| 17052s | AJ and through the ant Matrix surely |
| 17054s | they have the damage and they do so they |
| 17057s | reclaim that robot even though they're |
| 17059s | down in meters they're going to have a |
| 17060s | neutral fight again against Michael way |
| 17063s | they've got sound barrier as well Silver |
| 17065s | Lining that Genji blade all of its focus |
| 17068s | was directed onto Halo to stop the Sound |
| 17070s | fire as a result Timeless aeral had the |
| 17073s | time to be able to scatter keep an eye |
| 17074s | on Bon she's looking for that |
| 17076s | infiltration yet again playing an off |
| 17078s | angle to keep the pressure on the back |
| 17080s | line one is pressured out though a |
| 17083s | microwave that's a lot of resources |
| 17084s | committed just to go deal with on so |
| 17087s | could give them an edge here as we're |
| 17089s | nearing that 5 minutes halfway through |
| 17091s | the map angle bun again over the top W |
| 17094s | just immediately goes to deal with it |
| 17095s | uses all cool Downs against this Tracer |
| 17098s | seems like there's leaving wick on an |
| 17099s | island versus Tracer be drop engaged as |
| 17101s | well from Halo Timeless want to go |
| 17102s | aggressive with it foring that for Mari |
| 17105s | is the objective of Timeless at the |
| 17107s | moment because that's a lot of the kill |
| 17108s | potential for M butn as well with this |
| 17110s | poke able to get even more damage |
| 17112s | through and Mari d goes down oh my God |
| 17114s | before they can even use the Primal wage |
| 17116s | but can now drops down thinking they can |
| 17117s | maybe get some kills here but the |
| 17119s | disruptor shot just deletes the so the |
| 17121s | brigita of Michael wave and now Timeless |
| 17125s | ethereal pushed the robot in they now |
| 17127s | have the edge they also up three people |
| 17129s | in this fight Zoe dashes in why would |
| 17131s | you do that be in this fight again |
| 17134s | microwave yeah oh my gosh that's stagger |
| 17138s | it's stagger they're trickling into |
| 17140s | these fights one by one time of saer |
| 17143s | going to continue it as long as possible |
| 17145s | because they're getting so much free |
| 17147s | distance and time removed off of the |
| 17150s | back of it with the power slide able to |
| 17153s | cut Michael wave off before they're able |
| 17154s | to disengage Mario now jumping in has |
| 17156s | that Primal still available death |
| 17158s | getting the nanab boo with the overclock |
| 17160s | goes into the back when aggressively |
| 17162s | finds one finds two both supports remov |
| 17164s | this is a fight one for microwave but at |
| 17167s | what costs Dustin they lost so much |
| 17170s | distance they had to use so much to be |
| 17172s | able to brute for the W spawn at least |
| 17175s | they've still got the Primal to sustain |
| 17177s | this next fight long enough yeah that |
| 17179s | that's going to be ultimate I think that |
| 17181s | uh microwaves got to be happy they held |
| 17183s | on to at least and you're right they did |
| 17184s | commit a lot with that one with the Nano |
| 17186s | and then the overclock Timeless still |
| 17188s | have some good old to work with too but |
| 17190s | they you can use the Primal to to sort |
| 17193s | of face tank the over block coming |
| 17195s | through from wisps it was a play that a |
| 17197s | lot of winstons actually used when so |
| 17198s | was first released yeah now Mari goes in |
| 17201s | get some space to AJ to go for that an |
| 17202s | grenade he sniper but the Shield's there |
| 17205s | he's immediately or they immediately met |
| 17207s | on the top side Mori has to back out of |
| 17209s | there too so Primal Rage not getting a |
| 17210s | ton of value now the rally engage but |
| 17212s | they lose Zoe again BN what a critical |
| 17215s | Kill from them and the rally is not able |
| 17217s | to find the damage wi's side robot still |
| 17221s | trying to get forward I mean they know |
| 17223s | they're in a really rough fight at the |
| 17225s | moment so they're just trying to get as |
| 17226s | much space r bit as possible bun is |
| 17228s | there to stop it right I mean the macro |
| 17230s | from Timeless is too clean the soour |
| 17233s | Falls death Falls in that fight bun that |
| 17236s | also whis with the overclock able to get |
| 17238s | WIA so they actually don't even have to |
| 17239s | use too much to clean up microwave H |
| 17243s | yeah they pin the microwave position |
| 17245s | amplification Matrix on one angle with |
| 17248s | with the overclock attached on the other |
| 17251s | and microwave there are two doors |
| 17253s | available to them but un fortunately |
| 17254s | both lead to death Timeless a like you |
| 17257s | said able to hold on to Ultimate in that |
| 17259s | fight as well bun still with the pul |
| 17261s | plum still in the infiltration on the |
| 17263s | off angle pulse bom comes through and |
| 17265s | picks up wicker ajmr too far from the |
| 17268s | Nano boost to save the brck oh my God I |
| 17271s | mean what do they do at this point right |
| 17274s | they got a Dry Blade close to the Nano |
| 17276s | but death is down so with the Nano boost |
| 17279s | or ajmr with the Nano boost ready to go |
| 17281s | in with zo but they lose again more |
| 17283s | targets they're going to have to back up |
| 17284s | 2 minutes left |
| 17286s | here so much distance the time AAL are |
| 17289s | picking up they're still holding on to |
| 17291s | the flux they're going to be able to use |
| 17292s | it to connect on the Genji but Halo now |
| 17295s | gets enough time to be able to utilize a |
| 17297s | sound barrier Mari goes off of the |
| 17299s | Winston onto the Doom to be able to get |
| 17301s | back into these fights a little bit F |
| 17303s | potentially for some of these players |
| 17305s | time F off of the Hy we see the blade we |
| 17307s | see the Nano what does it find so he |
| 17309s | gets |
| 17310s | nothing maybe is expecting Z there to be |
| 17313s | in the back line but finally able to get |
| 17314s | some kills due to Timeless playing from |
| 17317s | so split I guess that goes to sh that |
| 17319s | you really can't counter the nanoade |
| 17320s | engage without a support Al there Halo |
| 17323s | holding on to that they at least get to |
| 17324s | come back through and they still have a |
| 17326s | big Advantage with that meters those |
| 17328s | meters timel aerial hold on to the alts |
| 17330s | they know that they have the advantage |
| 17332s | in terms of distance they know that |
| 17333s | they've pressured microwave enough into |
| 17336s | utilizing the ultimate combo that aeral |
| 17339s | have historically in this tournament run |
| 17342s | struggled against and they're going to |
| 17345s | have Sigma flux B and sound bar for |
| 17348s | sustain and aggression all they have to |
| 17351s | deal with is a rally overclock is f with |
| 17353s | the pulse bomb delays microwaves contest |
| 17356s | even longer that's at least the takeway |
| 17358s | that microwave could be happy with |
| 17360s | pushing the cart gives soe that space to |
| 17362s | take out whisp one trying to deal with |
| 17366s | the Tracer of bun or sorry Wicked trying |
| 17368s | to give the Tracer bun meanwhile on the |
| 17369s | outside and they still have a lot of the |
| 17371s | space right Zoe got that opening kill |
| 17374s | can can they find any more sniper on the |
| 17375s | low ground they just able to back up |
| 17377s | right it doesn't seem like microwave is |
| 17379s | able to take advantage here death with |
| 17381s | the overclock can they find the kills |
| 17383s | just an immortality field for now do |
| 17385s | they take that just an overclock her |
| 17387s | immortality field that's not got to be a |
| 17388s | good trade doesn't know what BN is yeah |
| 17391s | can't find B not like 50% of the |
| 17393s | overclock was being utilized to make |
| 17395s | sure the Tracer wasn't flanking crew and |
| 17396s | as a result they don't have it to play |
| 17398s | aggressive and stop time playma blocks |
| 17402s | towards the K already drops down but |
| 17404s | balls to sniper the Poke too much 7 |
| 17407s | seconds left Michael wave without |
| 17408s | doomfist what do they do n boost on to |
| 17411s | Zoe but it's against a beat drop in the |
| 17413s | rest of Timeless committing the every |
| 17415s | single ultimate I don't think there's |
| 17417s | much microwave could do at this point |
| 17418s | Timeless ethereal have cemented |
| 17420s | themselves in this upper bracket finals |
| 17423s | they're going to beat Michael wave three |
| 17425s | to one and move to the Grand |
| 17428s | finals sniper honestly really impressed |
| 17431s | has to be the MVP for me coming in with |
| 17433s | that s |
| 17434s | able to find the accretion in the second |
| 17436s | to last fight microwave are posturing up |
| 17438s | for a dive they've got Zoe going through |
| 17441s | the underneath of the building to try |
| 17444s | and push off of all of that disruption |
| 17446s | cus by Mari but NRE actually connects |
| 17449s | onto the doomfest and as a result the |
| 17451s | Genji isn't able to commit in and has to |
| 17453s | back on off and that hesitation never |
| 17456s | helps a dive composition if you're |
| 17458s | hesitating but you're already in an off |
| 17460s | angle to try and jump in off of |
| 17462s | something created by the rest of your |
| 17464s | team you're entirely split away from |
| 17467s | them and as a result Timeless ofal even |
| 17469s | though they didn't find kills off of the |
| 17471s | stun they still get to take a fight |
| 17473s | where they have a numbers advantage and |
| 17475s | they just steamroll over that dive it |
| 17478s | looks entirely different to the match up |
| 17481s | when we saw these two teams go |
| 17482s | head-to-head last time yeah I mean that |
| 17484s | was really fantastic from Timeless |
| 17486s | ethereal really good team overall right |
| 17489s | I mean this these guys have been |
| 17490s | performing at such a high level for so |
| 17493s | long right I mean even though Mich wave |
| 17496s | were always throwing that counter punch |
| 17497s | right consistently coming back keeping |
| 17499s | it close eventually the dam just broke |
| 17501s | MOX in Timeless cerio were just able to |
| 17503s | rush on |
| 17505s | through a huge part of it was fun with |
| 17507s | this one angle every single time she |
| 17511s | would be playing on the underside of |
| 17513s | ramp and like you said Michael wave |
| 17515s | would commit three out of five plays to |
| 17519s | try to deal with this Tracer and it just |
| 17521s | left Mari absolutely no sus |
| 17524s | even though you're on the Winston and |
| 17525s | you have that bubble to give yourself a |
| 17527s | little bit more downtime to be able to |
| 17529s | drop in and try and find that safer |
| 17531s | disengagement or stick in the front line |
| 17533s | a little bit longer so your Anna doesn't |
| 17535s | feel that same insane amount of pressure |
| 17537s | if you don't have a support to be able |
| 17539s | to fall back on to that bubble is not |
| 17542s | going to be lasting long especially |
| 17544s | against all of the burst potential that |
| 17546s | we've already talked about right you're |
| 17548s | running into a sojan if that alt fire is |
| 17551s | available and that Winston bubble is |
| 17553s | removed that Winston is going to be |
| 17555s | following very shortly after Timeless |
| 17558s | aerial a very smart team going to show |
| 17561s | that they may have struggled in the past |
| 17563s | against the Genji but they've gone back |
| 17566s | to the drawing board and they've worked |
| 17567s | out multiple solutions to it now and |
| 17570s | they have I mean they got to feel good |
| 17571s | going to the Grand finals um but we have |
| 17573s | one more match for you guys later today |
| 17575s | also we have some more around the corner |
| 17577s | in the me time we're going a short break |
| 17579s | when we come back we'll break everything |
| 17580s | down see you guys in just a |
| 17583s | bit |

| 17779s | welcome back everybody that was an |
| 17781s | interesting matchup there for Timeless |
| 17783s | ethereal versus likes of Michael wave I |
| 17786s | think it was interesting because there |
| 17788s | were expectations here right Michael |
| 17790s | wave last time these two teams faced off |
| 17792s | their dog wi was able to take take them |
| 17794s | two and0 within the Swiss stage but it |
| 17795s | seems like thess ethereal have |
| 17797s | definitely done their homework oh yeah I |
| 17799s | mean it it was a little worrisome I |
| 17800s | think map number one after we watched it |
| 17803s | however coming back through they just |
| 17804s | kind of found their their groove after |
| 17808s | after Midtown and it was just so |
| 17810s | consistent from there on out I don't |
| 17811s | think there was much microwave could |
| 17812s | have done with that composition and |
| 17814s | that's got to feel pretty hard |
| 17816s | especially since now they're going to |
| 17817s | have to make that lower bracket |
| 17818s | run that's a it's a difficult one to |
| 17821s | make I think the lower bracket's going |
| 17823s | to be pretty interesting I know that |
| 17824s | Vancouver Titans blue actually finally |
| 17826s | made their way through and broke that |
| 17828s | fifth sixth place Cur so exciting for |
| 17829s | them but focusing back on this match up |
| 17832s | here what was the key piece I know |
| 17834s | sniper went absolutely mad on the sigma |
| 17837s | there Moxy within this previous series |
| 17839s | but previously we saw difficulties last |
| 17842s | time these teams faced off where time |
| 17843s | was ethereal couldn't really break down |
| 17845s | that dive composition coming out from |
| 17847s | Michael wave this time a different |
| 17849s | story yeah they were really smart they |
| 17852s | actually had multiple solutions to to |
| 17853s | the same problem and as a result |
| 17855s | microwave never really got to fully feel |
| 17858s | comfortable in predicting how they would |
| 17861s | be counted if you become too predictable |
| 17863s | and OverWatch it becomes a huge |
| 17864s | detriment because a lot of the time the |
| 17866s | teams have such a good understanding of |
| 17867s | where you're going to be playing what |
| 17868s | your win conditioners they can |
| 17870s | immediately as soon as a match begins |
| 17872s | take just moves to be able to counter it |
| 17875s | entirely but this time the shoe was on |
| 17877s | the other foot microwave were the ones |
| 17880s | being incredibly predictable you knew |
| 17881s | that you were running up against the |
| 17883s | Genji you knew that you were running up |
| 17884s | against the Doom firstest they didn't |
| 17885s | have any of the information that |
| 17888s | Timeless aerial had and as a result you |
| 17890s | saw Bond every single time we went to |
| 17892s | that overhead map view she was moving |
| 17894s | into position she was harassing she was |
| 17896s | making sure that Michael wave were just |
| 17898s | losing more and more time and having to |
| 17900s | commit more and more resources just into |
| 17902s | dealing with just fighting the ghost of |
| 17904s | a tracer's presence a lot of the time |
| 17906s | she wouldn't actually be there you even |
| 17908s | saw the entirety of the overclock just |
| 17911s | being held in position with definitely |
| 17912s | like the Tracer here the Tracer there |
| 17914s | where's the |
| 17915s | Tracer and as a result all of the |
| 17917s | momentum that the dive composition was |
| 17919s | looking to be able to put forward and |
| 17922s | take into Advantage because dive is a |
| 17925s | very uh momentum based composition where |
| 17927s | you're able to find one kill and roll it |
| 17929s | into a second iner until you're able to |
| 17931s | just steamroll over a lot of those |
| 17933s | bunker style playes none of that ever |
| 17936s | got off the starting blocks it's uh it's |
| 17939s | important to run uh run those Tracer |
| 17941s | distraction tactics for sure to be able |
| 17942s | to pick apart that back line and uh keep |
| 17944s | that chip on your shoulders but we've |
| 17946s | also got the Chipotle match MVP speaking |
| 17949s | of chips if you guys are thinking about |
| 17951s | nachos let's see who it's G to be here |
| 17953s | for the side of uh the side of uh oh my |
| 17957s | goodness |
| 17958s | Timeless I can't even speak right now e |
| 17963s | ethereal wisps went absolutely mad |
| 17967s | especially on that sojourn we saw so |
| 17969s | much poke happening so much damage so |
| 17972s | much value coming from this place docman |
| 17974s | yeah I 100% wisp is I mean you could |
| 17977s | really get give it to anybody on this |
| 17978s | team you know we were talking about bun |
| 17980s | earlier sniper wisp is well had such |
| 17982s | consistent performances with their |
| 17984s | overclocks and then also just having the |
| 17986s | support of Z and Halo is another |
| 17988s | additive bonus this this soj player for |
| 17991s | Timeless has been so good and so |
| 17994s | consistent to the tournament I think |
| 17995s | that death really was doing their |
| 17997s | hardest to to match them and they were |
| 17999s | at points but realistically whis is one |
| 18002s | of the best sojourn if not the best in |
| 18004s | the entire tournament so consistent of a |
| 18007s | srum player we saw it just the final |
| 18008s | blows has been an absolute important |
| 18011s | stability piece for this team that's a |
| 18014s | big part of it but we also get to call |
| 18016s | into an interview here again with |
| 18018s | another player on Timeless ethereal it's |
| 18021s | gonna be Z this time around Z |
| 18024s | congratulations on this win and uh |
| 18027s | managing to find yourselves in the grand |
| 18028s | finals as the first Grand finalist here |
| 18030s | for the last major here within coling |
| 18033s | all heroes how are you |
| 18035s | feeling uh thank you thank you I'm |
| 18037s | feeling good uh we played two pretty |
| 18039s | good teams today and they weren't easy |
| 18042s | series by any means but I feel like we |
| 18044s | learned a lot as a team and we kept |
| 18046s | talking and second series especially we |
| 18048s | really locked in and were able to like I |
| 18052s | think play some really good OverWatch so |
| 18054s | I'm happy yeah no you guys definitely |
| 18057s | played some bang and OverWatch within |
| 18059s | this series I'm kind of curious about |
| 18061s | how things went for the team how |
| 18064s | discussions went leading up to this |
| 18066s | weekend within playoffs because you guys |
| 18068s | did fall to Michael wave during the |
| 18070s | Swiss stage last week and was it |
| 18073s | discussions throughout the week about |
| 18075s | okay this is how they like to play they |
| 18077s | like to play a little bit more divy and |
| 18079s | counter strating that or were you guys |
| 18081s | more so going on the Fly and just seeing |
| 18084s | how they're playing today in |
| 18087s | particular uh so yeah I think that loss |
| 18090s | during Swiss stage kind of rattled us |
| 18093s | and we were like wow you know this |
| 18094s | season is going to be harder we need to |
| 18096s | lock in a little bit more and we also |
| 18098s | made in my opinion a pretty big error |
| 18100s | when we played them in Swiss we matched |
| 18101s | them on Doom comp when we had never |
| 18104s | practiced Doom comp as a team uh we kind |
| 18106s | of just were like oh we're better |
| 18108s | players we can just beat them through |
| 18109s | like you know learning on the Fly and I |
| 18112s | think that like ego kind of costed us |
| 18115s | during the Swiss so yeah this week we |
| 18118s | really practiced against Doom comp and |
| 18119s | you know how |
| 18121s | to like live as Sig comp cuz we didn't |
| 18124s | want to we didn't want to uh switch up |
| 18126s | our Sig comp because we're all on you |
| 18128s | know like our best heroes you know so uh |
| 18131s | just that practice really |
| 18133s | helped no I'll noted on that I mean it's |
| 18136s | all about being able to play your game |
| 18138s | at the end of the day when you're |
| 18140s | playing OverWatch ensuring that you guys |
| 18141s | are comfortable and able to adapt more |
| 18144s | on the fly in that kind of sense but uh |
| 18146s | I think justtin has a quick question for |
| 18148s | you as well while we're here oh yeah I |
| 18150s | mean see you played perfectly I think in |
| 18152s | that series and for you I think you |
| 18154s | changed up your play style throughout it |
| 18156s | on that segma like I think on colosio |
| 18158s | you played like aggressive and at one |
| 18160s | point Zoe like lost you was that on |
| 18162s | purpose were you like mixing and |
| 18164s | matching how you played that Baptist |
| 18165s | throughout the series because on top of |
| 18167s | that your cooldown usage was really |
| 18169s | really good just trying to deal with |
| 18170s | also uh the Winston Dives was this on |
| 18173s | purpose your overall play style and the |
| 18175s | changes that |
| 18176s | happened um like not intentionally but |
| 18179s | I'm sure subconsciously like especially |
| 18181s | on Bap you have to |
| 18184s | um into dive comps you have to like take |
| 18186s | every inch that's given to you you have |
| 18188s | to use all your cool Downs uh |
| 18191s | defensively and then once you live their |
| 18192s | dive you can start like shooting back |
| 18194s | basically and so as soon as we live |
| 18196s | their Dives that's when I start looking |
| 18197s | for aggressive opportunities and I think |
| 18201s | I don't know I think I just got lucky a |
| 18202s | lot of times uh my cool Downs were |
| 18204s | hidden I didn't really miss any lamps |
| 18206s | but um yeah I |
| 18209s | think I I think it's just |
| 18212s | subconsciously |
| 18214s | well speaking then about using a lot of |
| 18217s | like defensive cooldowns what is your |
| 18219s | communication with sniper like because |
| 18222s | obviously that dive composition if they |
| 18223s | see the sigma they're going to want to |
| 18225s | run through both of your cool Downs as |
| 18227s | quickly as possible but a lot of the |
| 18229s | time we would see sniper getting that |
| 18230s | pressure and potentially even going down |
| 18233s | but the team would still be able to win |
| 18234s | the fight |
| 18236s | overall so into Doom comp uh they |
| 18240s | basically either have to look at me or |
| 18242s | look at sniper and I think a lot of the |
| 18244s | damage that they do to sniper as long as |
| 18247s | he's in my line of sight so I can heal |
| 18248s | him with like my biotic launcher as long |
| 18251s | as I can do that it's like fake damage |
| 18253s | basically like they aren't going to kill |
| 18254s | him you know they're kind of wasting |
| 18256s | their time and so it just forces their |
| 18258s | hand a lot and I think |
| 18262s | uh yeah I think it's just really easy to |
| 18264s | play a game like that I always tell |
| 18267s | sniper whenever I don't have cooldowns |
| 18269s | and then make sure that he's always in |
| 18270s | my losos and basically what he just has |
| 18272s | to do is hold off their backline with |
| 18274s | Shield um because as soon as the Anna |
| 18276s | can't heal their Doom it's really easy |
| 18278s | to shoot him and like that's when the |
| 18280s | damage is permanent you |
| 18283s | know good stuff good stuff overall you |
| 18285s | love to hear about all the calms that go |
| 18287s | on within the team and whatnot um we're |
| 18289s | not going to keep you here too much |
| 18291s | longer I know it's been a long day for |
| 18292s | you guys within the tournament thus far |
| 18296s | but one last question before we end up |
| 18298s | heading out I actually got to know I'm |
| 18300s | not sure which part of the world that |
| 18302s | you're situated in right now but uh for |
| 18305s | the Chipotle Real Talk interview I |
| 18307s | wouldn't be wrapping it up unless I |
| 18308s | asked you what your typical Chipotle |
| 18310s | order is or would |
| 18312s | be uh so I like to get rice no beans |
| 18316s | chicken queso some veggies shredded |
| 18319s | cheese and then like green salsa is like |
| 18322s | my go-to sometimes I'll switch it up a |
| 18324s | little bit but that's like the |
| 18326s | standard very solid order yeah that |
| 18328s | sounds good I'm hungry now to be honest |
| 18332s | but um and then one last thing here Z if |
| 18335s | you're still here I just wanted to give |
| 18337s | you one last chance to give any thank |
| 18338s | yous or shout outs here before we head |
| 18341s | off um I just want to thank my team you |
| 18343s | know always learning not really getting |
| 18345s | tilted at each other even though it's |
| 18347s | like a harder season uh like learning |
| 18350s | and developing as players is always so |
| 18352s | fun especially in a cohesive unit so I |
| 18354s | just want to thank them for playing |
| 18356s | really strong and playing really hard |
| 18358s | the entire |
| 18359s | day well it's awesome just to be able to |
| 18361s | see you guys adapt from last week to |
| 18364s | this week even though the competition is |
| 18366s | starting to get so close between all |
| 18368s | these teams here within calling all |
| 18370s | heroes Radiance Heroes but a big thank |
| 18372s | you Z for taking the time to do this |
| 18374s | interview with us rest up tonight and |
| 18376s | good luck on tomorrow's games thank you |
| 18379s | so much see you |
| 18382s | then okay what a nice interview |
| 18388s | yeah I mean it's really nice to hear |
| 18390s | that there's a clean line of |
| 18391s | communication between the Baptist and |
| 18393s | the sigma a lot of the time if there's a |
| 18395s | disconnect between the two running dead |
| 18397s | Sigma whose sole job a lot of the time |
| 18399s | is hold off the dive so everyone else |
| 18401s | gets to survive without any of its |
| 18404s | attention diverted its way does mean |
| 18406s | that the team can crumble between that |
| 18408s | Deus and the Genji so lovely to hear |
| 18410s | that they identified very quickly okay |
| 18413s | we can't go into this match up with egos |
| 18415s | we have to play what's comfortable to us |
| 18417s | so that we can stop what's comfortable |
| 18418s | to |
| 18419s | them no that is for sure but we do have |
| 18423s | some more calling all heroes pending for |
| 18425s | you guys Challengers might be done for |
| 18427s | Saturday thus far but Rising is still |
| 18431s | pending here within the stream so you |
| 18434s | guys can stay tuned because we will have |
| 18435s | the upper finals between Fable Rising |
| 18437s | versus lfs |
| 18439s | 4.5k right on the other side of this |

| 18753s | welcome back everybody to calling all |
| 18754s | heroes radiant Heroes major 3 we've |
| 18757s | wrapped up with Challengers upper |
| 18759s | bracket for today but heading into the |
| 18762s | rising bracket we're going to take a |
| 18763s | look to see how that's panned out as |
| 18766s | it's been going on concurrently as today |
| 18768s | has and for this final that we're going |
| 18771s | to be seeing here on stream Fable Rising |
| 18773s | versus lfs |
| 18775s | 4.5k I mean Dogman how are you feeling |
| 18777s | about how this bracket has actually |
| 18779s | played out I mean it it seems like it's |
| 18781s | been pretty close throughout the entire |
| 18783s | time right and that's what you like to |
| 18784s | see out of this you know Rising Heroes |
| 18786s | tournament it's it's so much fun |
| 18788s | watching you know these players that |
| 18790s | don't usually get the opportunity to |
| 18791s | play at a at a high level you know |
| 18792s | compete in these tournaments for a prize |
| 18794s | pool um you know we could talk about |
| 18796s | that all day but you know I do think |
| 18798s | this match up between table Rising lfs |
| 18799s | is going to be very good and it's always |
| 18801s | such a unique perspective on the game |
| 18803s | that we don't get otherwise it really is |
| 18806s | and I love the fact that it's just the |
| 18807s | amount of teams doubled since the last |
| 18810s | time that Rising had come to yeah last |
| 18812s | time it was like four teams had signed |
| 18814s | up I think and this time around it was |
| 18816s | nine teams that actually signed up for |
| 18818s | Rising so it's it's big things like it |
| 18820s | doesn't seem like a lot maybe but |
| 18823s | realistically it's the opportunity to |
| 18825s | again get those reps in and then |
| 18827s | hopefully eventually grind up to the |
| 18829s | point where you're able to play Within |
| 18831s | the main Challenger circuit there |
| 18833s | Moxy yeah I mean having that upwards |
| 18835s | puff is is really good for a lot of |
| 18837s | these players it gives them that sort of |
| 18839s | confidence as well as sense of security |
| 18841s | lovely to as well not just the amount of |
| 18844s | teams that is increased we're also |
| 18845s | getting to see a lot of these teams |
| 18847s | having Academy teams coming through from |
| 18849s | our major teams in the Challenger Series |
| 18851s | so already you can start to see the sort |
| 18854s | of path to Pro establishing itself here |
| 18857s | in calling all heres which is great |
| 18859s | because it means that you're already |
| 18860s | connected to those teams being able to |
| 18861s | make the jump from the rising series |
| 18864s | into the official Challenger Series is |
| 18865s | going to be a lot easier for a lot of |
| 18867s | these players absolutely massive to have |
| 18869s | those pipelines but to introduce the |
| 18871s | first froster here with within Fable |
| 18872s | Rising I mean this squad has looked |
| 18876s | pretty consistent throughout the event |
| 18878s | thus far Dogman yeah they have been and |
| 18880s | they're going to have to keep that up if |
| 18882s | they want to win today obviously right I |
| 18883s | mean by the way look the managers of |
| 18885s | fable is is wi one of the one of the |
| 18887s | players that we literally just watched |
| 18889s | that's that's really fun too because I |
| 18891s | mean I I was running a team at one point |
| 18893s | not well hopefully wi is actually doing |
| 18894s | a lot of work helping out fa Rising so |
| 18897s | this team has like you said been |
| 18898s | consistent and I'm just looking forward |
| 18900s | to watching them and casting for the |
| 18902s | first time because they're really you |
| 18904s | know a potentially unique team compared |
| 18905s | to everything we've watched so far today |
| 18907s | especially since it's all been |
| 18908s | Challenger Series no for sure um not |
| 18911s | gonna lie I am rooting for fable Rising |
| 18913s | a bit more here this time around Casey |
| 18916s | on the DPS one of my friends from the |
| 18919s | Esports scene in general she does like |
| 18921s | observing for multiple games within the |
| 18922s | scene and it's really cool to see her |
| 18924s | actually like now get this opportunity |
| 18926s | to compete but we've also got to flip it |
| 18928s | over to the other team who they're going |
| 18930s | to be facing off against LF s |
| 18933s | 4.5k tell us a little bit about this |
| 18935s | squad |
| 18936s | Moxy yeah I'm honestly really hoping |
| 18938s | that we're going to see some insane |
| 18940s | Niche matchups coming through from all |
| 18942s | of these players something that we do |
| 18944s | have to talk about is the fact that this |
| 18946s | is going to be played on live as a |
| 18949s | result that doomfist that sandwich maker |
| 18951s | is currently teasing she could very well |
| 18954s | be logging on to it although I feel like |
| 18957s | since it is going to be live we need to |
| 18958s | sort of ever so slightly edit the symbol |
| 18962s | of role that doomfist has and you know |
| 18964s | just just give it a little bit of a half |
| 18965s | shield and a little bit of a half |
| 18967s | support cross because he now heals in |
| 18970s | the ultimate and that is absolutely |
| 18973s | terrifying to think about for how long |
| 18975s | you can be up there 75 heels per second |
| 18978s | is insane no yeah I just can't believe |
| 18982s | how how much they buffed tanks in the |
| 18984s | recent patch I mean this is going to be |
| 18986s | as you said this is the tank gig I hate |
| 18988s | it I hate it as a support player what |
| 18991s | the heck man like what we doing out here |
| 18992s | buff buffing tanks this much it's just |
| 18994s | my slight rant doesn't we we've had our |
| 18997s | patches okay we we've had KIRO we've had |
| 18999s | a lot |
| 19000s | not I'm not disagreeing supports AR op |
| 19003s | but we don't need to buff tanks man like |
| 19005s | Jesus I don't know hey're the different |
| 19009s | T that they buffed you know tra traca |
| 19012s | got a a Nifty little buff too so yeah I |
| 19015s | mean that that character is always like |
| 19017s | you know a patch or two between being |
| 19018s | broken and and underpowered right yeah |
| 19021s | you're not wrong you're definitely not |
| 19022s | wrong but we got to move on to the maps |
| 19024s | here you guys have all the time to talk |
| 19026s | about these Heroes within the game |
| 19027s | itself but heading over to control it's |
| 19030s | going to be Busan coming up next year |
| 19032s | Moxy how are you feeling about the map |
| 19034s | pick I'm anticipating a lot of dive I'm |
| 19036s | I'm very happy I'm anticipating a lot of |
| 19039s | dive even at Challenger Series when |
| 19040s | they're not playing on live they've |
| 19041s | still been running the doomfist on buan |
| 19044s | and a lot of it I feel is anticipation |
| 19046s | of this moment because doomfist as |
| 19049s | Dustin has said has been significantly |
| 19051s | bed |
| 19052s | well I'm G to have to say goodbye to you |
| 19054s | guys and I'm excited to see how going on |
| 19056s | to this live patch ends up handing out |
| 19058s | here for these Rising squads you two |
| 19060s | take it |
| 19061s | away thank you Ash I appreciate it I'm |
| 19063s | sure she's also glad to leave us too |
| 19065s | because uh you know obviously we're bit |
| 19067s | on his we to just start up an entire Dev |
| 19069s | talk we we are I mean I feel I feel like |
| 19072s | me and you have a lot of like good |
| 19073s | disagreements about patches in this game |
| 19075s | and it results in um some it's really |
| 19078s | funny so cuz we're both support Ms yeah |
| 19081s | I mean it it's it's it's very I mean |
| 19084s | supports are really strong in this game |
| 19086s | too because I mean the main thing the |
| 19087s | main thing is Moxy like the the selfield |
| 19090s | right I mean that is huge that that that |
| 19092s | pass it's so strong it's I think is it |
| 19095s | the strongest passive in the game it |
| 19096s | must be right I mean I would say the |
| 19099s | tanks uh getting less knock back is also |
| 19102s | pretty significant right if you think |
| 19104s | about the amount of times that you have |
| 19105s | to sort of approach a lot of these |
| 19107s | tricky chokes that have environmentals |
| 19110s | especially since we have so many |
| 19111s | characters that have |
| 19113s | knockbacks we're seeing the dog again I |
| 19115s | love I love seeing that dog by the |
| 19117s | way as the front I know is bit |
| 19119s | distraction but yeah both teams like you |
| 19122s | said we're probably going to see some of |
| 19123s | that dive coming through um you know and |
| 19126s | in depending on you know obviously the |
| 19128s | ranks of the players it can really |
| 19130s | change how you play that dive right it's |
| 19131s | I feel like depending on the level of |
| 19134s | OverWatch that we're playing it always |
| 19136s | can change to be a bit more |
| 19137s | individualistic compared to you know |
| 19139s | maybe some of the higher rank players |
| 19141s | that play |
| 19142s | very very coordinated together and if |
| 19144s | you're not then it can get really scy |
| 19147s | yeah especially if we're going to see |
| 19148s | both of these teams lock the May there |
| 19150s | are a lot of fights that you can take on |
| 19152s | downtown buan in the open where if |
| 19154s | you're able to kite the other team the |
| 19156s | May loses a lot of that power okay yeah |
| 19158s | there we go we're seeing the M because |
| 19160s | it's not downtown I got baited by the |
| 19163s | overhead view it's actually going to be |
| 19166s | Mecha base as a result every fight that |
| 19168s | you take here becomes a lot harder to be |
| 19171s | able to Dodge around the strength of the |
| 19173s | mayol with how this map has |
| 19175s | been the left |
| 19177s | side able to setting up their |
| 19181s | dojour building up towards those rail |
| 19183s | gun shots nice wall from duck from lfs |
| 19187s | still walled off in fact just waiting up |
| 19189s | the full cool down both may walls really |
| 19192s | doing a lot of work there meanwhile lfs |
| 19193s | are the on to go aggressive first s |
| 19195s | maker going aggressive hit by the but |
| 19197s | nice imortality to keep him healthy but |
| 19199s | again those those May walls get so so |
| 19201s | much value willowron and the rest of fa |
| 19204s | Rising just able off that amazing May |
| 19207s | wall to just run over lfs and get the |
| 19209s | objective first it was not just the M |
| 19212s | it's also the fact that Willow was able |
| 19213s | to pressure with the endic Blaster and |
| 19216s | force Lam into using the immortality |
| 19218s | field a lot earlier than Fable Rising as |
| 19222s | a result when Sage maker gets walled off |
| 19224s | yet again with it cycling back into cool |
| 19226s | down no one on lfs is able to peel for |
| 19229s | the remates well was just waiting for |
| 19231s | lfs has to walk through the choke are |
| 19233s | they going to spot the maze position |
| 19235s | otherwise it's going to be another dead |
| 19237s | for a match because that choke the |
| 19239s | ceiling is so low you can't use the EXO |
| 19241s | boots to jump over the wall and lamp on |
| 19243s | top of it look lfs is splitting up they |
| 19246s | sent actually the Lucio and soour an off |
| 19248s | angle so oh there's the May wall they |
| 19252s | break through it this time though Sage |
| 19253s | maker gets the immortality field after |
| 19255s | it now the gratic flux comes through |
| 19257s | perfect Al rotation I don't think lfs |
| 19260s | can deal with it they do find one soer |
| 19263s | move for fable Rising however it just |
| 19265s | might be too far too late leel is able |
| 19268s | to find the followup kills and Fable |
| 19270s | Rising now across the 50% margin you can |
| 19272s | definitely see the influence coming |
| 19274s | through from a player like wicker right |
| 19275s | like you said the cycling of those |
| 19277s | abilities from Fable is perfect Willow |
| 19279s | with the wo forces lfs into using all of |
| 19282s | the burst damage maker already having to |
| 19283s | use the nesis form to be able to block |
| 19285s | and sustain for the damage immortality |
| 19287s | field gets invested as a result sleepy |
| 19289s | eel knows that they're free to use the |
| 19290s | sigma plug as LFX will drop in the |
| 19293s | amplification Matrix but Willow another |
| 19296s | huge play comes in with the blizzard to |
| 19298s | stop any momentum the great beat |
| 19301s | re-engage damage Staying Alive getting |
| 19303s | the heals from their |
| 19305s | supports as well they're able to go |
| 19307s | aggressive off B it did Force the beat |
| 19309s | drop out of that go was a bit delayed |
| 19311s | and Willow hits the head shot what a |
| 19313s | shot from them no longer they have a Lo |
| 19316s | in this fight so the speed ain't there |
| 19317s | and lfs are just going to wipe but |
| 19319s | they're dying with ultimates 90% on the |
| 19321s | board |
| 19322s | this is going to be a weird West or it |
| 19323s | just might not happen oh and they |
| 19327s | stole they had blizzard we're going to |
| 19330s | see the overclock invested from Fable |
| 19332s | the amplification Matrix yeah lfs just |
| 19334s | weren't able to |
| 19336s | touch no I communication potentially |
| 19339s | being an issue there is you have to use |
| 19342s | something it was a lost team fight |
| 19344s | regardless but maybe you want to toss |
| 19346s | out something I mean at this point |
| 19348s | you're saving ultimates for next map and |
| 19350s | it doesn't work like that in this game |
| 19352s | oxy no when you swap a hero on you know |
| 19355s | the map that you're playing you do |
| 19357s | retain all charge but unfortunately not |
| 19358s | when we swap map TPS as we can have a |
| 19360s | look at the stats Willow coming in doing |
| 19362s | only 1,900 damage but here's the thing |
| 19365s | eight eliminations one death because |
| 19367s | Fable Rising were able to win the first |
| 19369s | fight they immediately get all of the |
| 19371s | Power with the m composition and just |
| 19372s | holding choke that's crazy two they only |
| 19375s | had two deaths yeah two deaths Moxy that |
| 19378s | entire round I mean you could believe it |
| 19380s | but that's still crazy |
| 19381s | think about how much lfs had to invest |
| 19384s | just to break through the choke |
| 19385s | everything was immediately used before |
| 19387s | the fight had even started as yet again |
| 19389s | Fable Rising with the May looking to wo |
| 19391s | lfs off I mean all that damage coming |
| 19395s | through on lfs they have to walk out low |
| 19397s | HP immortality field keeping them alive |
| 19399s | it seems to be a consistent factor is |
| 19402s | that immortality |
| 19404s | field |
| 19406s | lammer Willow rotates around this left |
| 19408s | side walled off away from sleepy but |
| 19410s | nice immortality field on their front |
| 19413s | line from the Baptist keeps them healthy |
| 19415s | for now his ultimates are been built up |
| 19417s | on both sides no D just yet whole team |
| 19421s | kind of just trading off damage damage |
| 19422s | goes low and sleepy heels with the |
| 19424s | accretion finds the opening blow duck |
| 19427s | Falls to knowing things are pretty much |
| 19429s | just lost at that point rest the fa will |
| 19432s | rotate towards that point and are surely |
| 19433s | going to C here the interesting thing |
| 19436s | lfs should be finding way more value |
| 19439s | with dark on the May in comparison to |
| 19440s | Willow when you look at the tank match |
| 19442s | up right we've talked about it Sigma the |
| 19445s | kinetic grasp does not actually stop the |
| 19448s | May primary but fa Rising are doing such |
| 19450s | a good job at controlling the distance |
| 19452s | with the Poke coming through from the |
| 19453s | soier main Sigma that duck is never in |
| 19456s | the forward position to be able to use |
| 19457s | the primary and precious |
| 19461s | CPS Point holding Rising ready and they |
| 19464s | don't even need it e was able to find |
| 19466s | samage off of some damage from the soj |
| 19470s | and now L just this back up for now Mark |
| 19472s | it was the wall yet again Sage maker |
| 19474s | move for a choke did not have the Lucio |
| 19477s | speed boost caugh wed off from the rest |
| 19479s | of her team and Fable Rising yet again |
| 19481s | win a fight with one cool down still |
| 19485s | holding on to this choke lamth again hav |
| 19487s | CH am just to get through yeah they are |
| 19490s | in they're able to do so but all that |
| 19492s | damage coming through imortality get far |
| 19494s | back they're able to stay alive surely |
| 19496s | going to need to be pop to stay alive |
| 19497s | but the soor overclock is here from |
| 19499s | KitKat can't go aggressive because they |
| 19500s | don't have the heals and duck able to |
| 19502s | get taken out by Eko where was the where |
| 19506s | was the counter beat for maybe Anna in |
| 19508s | this fight because now daggers come |
| 19510s | through 60% being built on the board at |
| 19511s | least they getting some ultimates out |
| 19513s | now but able rise and continue the rain |
| 19515s | counter beat was being held for Sigma |
| 19518s | flux for next fight it's a loose lose |
| 19520s | situation you're taking so much damage |
| 19522s | you're immediately forced to use the |
| 19523s | immortality field you don't get any |
| 19524s | value off of your amplification Matrix B |
| 19527s | Rising still with control of all of this |
| 19529s | spacing duck even try to build up to a |
| 19530s | blizzard because Willow's already got |
| 19532s | one built to counter |
| 19534s | it walk out as well with the bur pop so |
| 19537s | they need this speat drop and it comes |
| 19538s | out but after duck is gone Lam able to |
| 19541s | pop the immortality but the Frozen and |
| 19543s | so is the rest of their team two members |
| 19546s | of Ls both died to just the passive from |
| 19548s | the blizzard and 94% on the board 95% |
| 19552s | the beat drop not even required nobody's |
| 19553s | going to be able to touch for lfs fable |
| 19555s | Rising will go up one map in this first |
| 19558s | to three yeah you can tell that Fable |
| 19560s | Rising have been listening to Wi |
| 19563s | listening to a lot of the coaching and |
| 19565s | experience coming through from some of |
| 19567s | these players already on that challenges |
| 19569s | level because they have that cycling and |
| 19571s | space when is absolutely down path swe |
| 19574s | eels on the sigma able to come in using |
| 19577s | the sigma flux after the rest of the |
| 19579s | team have already bullied your opponent |
| 19581s | into investing that lamp really good |
| 19584s | stuff coming through from them |
| 19585s | controlling all of the chokes great |
| 19588s | accretions as well to be able to land |
| 19590s | and connect on to all of the players |
| 19592s | coming through from lfs so every single |
| 19594s | time one of them maybe closes up the |
| 19596s | distance maybe didn't get holded off |
| 19598s | survived that initial rotation on |
| 19601s | approach instantly a cretion straight to |
| 19604s | the face you're sent back a meter right |
| 19606s | into a May wall and you have no cool |
| 19608s | Downs to be able to keep yourself |
| 19610s | standing that was so clean from them and |
| 19614s | maybe for the side of Ls the coaching |
| 19616s | there Moxy I mean by the way yeah we |
| 19618s | just get to look at sleepy eels who just |
| 19620s | having such a dominant performance on |
| 19621s | the sigma such a strong hero like you |
| 19623s | said and then also just in a really good |
| 19626s | hands for them but you know maybe if |
| 19628s | you're talking to lfs Moxy for their |
| 19630s | coaching you would think okay maybe just |
| 19632s | try to use your ultimates right I know a |
| 19634s | lot of these fights like aren't really |
| 19635s | winable but I mean you got to think to |
| 19638s | just use those ultimates right yeah I |
| 19640s | think unfortunately for lfs right the |
| 19643s | coms are coming through and you're |
| 19644s | trying to figure out we've already |
| 19645s | dropped one or two players we know that |
| 19647s | they're going to have things like the |
| 19649s | sigma flux and the blizzard for next F |
| 19651s | so even if you invested the sound bar |
| 19653s | you're potentially still going to be |
| 19654s | picked off and then you're going to lose |
| 19657s | the next fight as a result of lacking |
| 19659s | the S barrier because the other team get |
| 19660s | to be incredibly aggressive with things |
| 19663s | like the flux and the bar the blizzard |
| 19665s | knowing barri is not there to stop it |
| 19667s | unfortunately I think that sort of |
| 19669s | hesitation where the team was sort of |
| 19670s | split down the middle on whether to |
| 19672s | invest whether not to immediately got |
| 19675s | punished Fable were very good at |
| 19677s | identifying where players were out |
| 19679s | position or whether there was maybe a |
| 19681s | moment of indecision and as a result |
| 19683s | they were able to use that sort of |
| 19685s | hesitation to turn lfs's team entirely |
| 19688s | against them and unfortunately even when |
| 19690s | they immediately dropped those abilities |
| 19692s | in right lamp came out super fast from |
| 19695s | lfs's side because they identified our |
| 19698s | tank is incredibly weak they've been |
| 19700s | walled off they've been separated we |
| 19702s | don't have anything to be able to peel |
| 19703s | for them we have to throw lampin but the |
| 19705s | second it was gone it was immediately |
| 19708s | removed from play because everyone from |
| 19710s | Fable saw it come out and just zero |
| 19712s | focused it down yeah I mean it's so |
| 19714s | clean from them now Moxy the next map |
| 19717s | we're going to which I'm excited because |
| 19718s | I haven't watched this map in Pro play |
| 19720s | in such a long time we're going to Kings |
| 19721s | Row for the second game I mean that's a |
| 19724s | great pick just to see for a personal |
| 19726s | fan of OverWatch to see the map again |
| 19728s | you know maybe against this Sigma do you |
| 19730s | think Kings Row is a solid map pick to |
| 19733s | potentially go against them or is that |
| 19735s | Sigma still going to get a lot of work |
| 19736s | done I mean we've seen Sigma find Value |
| 19739s | on Kings Row in current meta Zoom fist |
| 19741s | also can work really nicely there's a |
| 19743s | lot of high ground areas that you can |
| 19744s | roll out onto whether you're attacking |
| 19746s | or defending you can slip in and out of |
| 19748s | fights incredibly quickly and be |
| 19750s | incredibly hard to be able to catch and |
| 19752s | pin down with all of the twists and |
| 19754s | winding Alleyways uh Reinhardt if you |
| 19757s | want to grab something like a symmetra |
| 19759s | teleporter still finds a lot of value as |
| 19762s | well playing with that Rin Rush style |
| 19764s | where you sort of work around the |
| 19765s | symmetric cooldowns so that you don't |
| 19767s | burn through that Rin Shield before the |
| 19769s | fight even begins May is my biggest |
| 19773s | concern for this map however with lfs |
| 19776s | deciding to take his here they struggled |
| 19778s | against the mayw whether or not they |
| 19780s | lost players because of the wall |
| 19782s | separation or whether or not they were |
| 19784s | forced into burning cooldowns a lot |
| 19786s | earlier than they desired off of May War |
| 19789s | being able to separate it really did |
| 19791s | feel like Fable Rising had how to play |
| 19794s | that may perfectly down yeah I mean in |
| 19799s | like you said on King's Row I think |
| 19800s | that's just going to |
| 19801s | that might that might potentially you |
| 19803s | know hurt lfs on this map too so you |
| 19806s | know well that's why I would love to see |
| 19807s | something like a doom because then you |
| 19809s | have the mobility to be able to play |
| 19810s | around it even if you get wed off by the |
| 19812s | May you're still going to be able what |
| 19815s | is this well I promis TV she will do a |
| 19818s | sick 360 for her and she has zero |
| 19821s | confidence she |
| 19822s | can oh no why they got to throw in that |
| 19825s | extra bit I I appreciate she's humble |
| 19827s | she can do it I believe I believe in a |
| 19829s | 360 m |
| 19831s | MOX Moxy I think a big thing with the |
| 19832s | doomfist is you know in in diamond in |
| 19836s | these ranks as well like I don't think |
| 19837s | doomfist is a hard character I think |
| 19839s | it's underestimated like Doom is |
| 19840s | probably one of the hardest characters |
| 19841s | to play a lot of hours yeah committed to |
| 19845s | be able to to with those roll lights |
| 19848s | yeah exactly it is very much like |
| 19850s | wrecking bullets Nila is going to be |
| 19852s | running the first allari that we've |
| 19854s | gotten to see today there you go Dustin |
| 19858s | get get ready just to support in |
| 19861s | chat as that is going to be a lot of |
| 19863s | burst damage coming through from this |
| 19865s | back line as well as |
| 19866s | survivability I wonder I really wonder |
| 19868s | why we haven't seen a lot of the Lor in |
| 19869s | the recent meta just because of the |
| 19871s | sigmae being so strong with the speed |
| 19873s | and stuff right it's not really you need |
| 19874s | the Lu here for |
| 19876s | rotations yeah well they're in a |
| 19878s | defensible position at the moment so |
| 19880s | maybe they can just poke down lfs |
| 19882s | sigma's also great at that really been |
| 19885s | great Flex character in general able to |
| 19886s | play oh my God ignore everything I've |
| 19888s | just said Willow hits the head shot on a |
| 19890s | Kit Kat no 360 sadly but still opening |
| 19893s | pick and with that lfs right |
| 19895s | everything's trly just going to crumble |
| 19896s | unless they can find another kill here |
| 19898s | that may wall was was definitely |
| 19900s | something but I guess it forced out the |
| 19901s | immortality fi scared them for now lfs |
| 19904s | it pushed them back into the building |
| 19906s | yeah that's the thing Fable with the |
| 19908s | sigma they know without that loser they |
| 19909s | have to just pick a spot and anchor on |
| 19911s | it so they've given up High Ground |
| 19913s | Control knowing that the soan can |
| 19914s | poweride up there in case lfs try and |
| 19917s | pressure and as a result they've |
| 19918s | anchored points blue wall from |
| 19923s | Willow that's face May oh my gosh duck |
| 19925s | just goes down immediately immortality |
| 19926s | not to save them in time sleepy e |
| 19929s | meanwhile gets there Queen B you'll take |
| 19932s | that train into the week of your Fable |
| 19933s | Rising because there's no man the side |
| 19935s | end Blaster there's that damage you |
| 19937s | always talk about Moxy the r lfs just |
| 19940s | crumbles to it with a minute and 20 off |
| 19941s | the clock yeah may may as well be |
| 19944s | wielding a flamethrower end ofic plaster |
| 19947s | does so much damage that's one fight and |
| 19950s | and Willow is 88% to Blizzard that's |
| 19954s | insane I mean at least lfs are taking |
| 19957s | enough hul damage that aror is pretty |
| 19959s | close to sound barrier but unfortunately |
| 19961s | a couple more head shot coming through |
| 19963s | on that secondary Willow is going to be |
| 19965s | sitting incredibly pretty fa Rising is |
| 19968s | going to be incredibly comfortably on |
| 19970s | that point lfs at least have The High |
| 19972s | Ground to |
| 19974s | pop flam Popp it they do 33 HP as well |
| 19978s | but no regener bur to heal up everybody |
| 19979s | low on F now Kit Kat trying to find the |
| 19982s | shot on the backline but just can't too |
| 19984s | many heals there from Fable now |
| 19985s | overclock pop the side beat dro the |
| 19987s | counter it amazing for lfs now there's |
| 19990s | the gravitic flux into the sky everybody |
| 19992s | goes Sage Falls but may doesn't fall |
| 19995s | just yet however the blizzard here is on |
| 19996s | the other side B Rising able to stack |
| 19999s | these ultimates on top of each other |
| 20001s | nothing really anms can do and they only |
| 20004s | have a minute 30 seconds left now that's |
| 20006s | very much a game plan that fa wising |
| 20008s | have had they stacked both the blizzard |
| 20011s | and the flux to bait out the cool Downs |
| 20013s | earli on on and as a result lfs are |
| 20016s | going to lose their supports late on 1 |
| 20019s | minute and 23 seconds left not a single |
| 20022s | point of percentage picked up for lfs on |
| 20025s | their attack they're going to have |
| 20026s | Annihilation they're going to have the |
| 20029s | overclock but nil is going to have |
| 20030s | captive sun to be able to instantly slow |
| 20033s | all of that momentum down see how early |
| 20035s | decided to pop that I like the decision |
| 20037s | making for lest going through the low |
| 20039s | ground instead of all in the flank but |
| 20041s | that results in L so |
| 20043s | low but there's the overclock Pig cat |
| 20046s | could go big that's the opening pick |
| 20048s | they needed 55 seconds left can they get |
| 20050s | any more a plays back they want to wait |
| 20053s | for the team member to come back out of |
| 20054s | Spawn looks like no they just want to |
| 20056s | fight Here and Now captive Sun now comes |
| 20058s | through where do they go with this |
| 20060s | waiting for that ice block to come out |
| 20062s | it connects onto two which the the |
| 20064s | follow up damage Willow's able to find |
| 20066s | lammer another one is found but nobody |
| 20068s | else can get kills rest of lfs are on |
| 20071s | the objective and by this point Sage |
| 20073s | maker damage is done wait they're |
| 20075s | committing ultimates wait it's the |
| 20077s | blizzard and oh my God they're able to |
| 20079s | come back Fable with that ultimate Ono |
| 20081s | just going to stagger out 20 seconds |
| 20083s | left they live with their lives no what |
| 20086s | a clutch from the DPS is a fable but |
| 20088s | ducky want to get one on the reengage |
| 20090s | they're going to come back in this fight |
| 20092s | Moxy yeah but they woed the corner so |
| 20094s | the m not in position to be able tool |
| 20096s | that point they're going to have to |
| 20098s | throw blizzard immediately as dark makes |
| 20100s | her approach you can see lfs looking for |
| 20102s | that contest good wall blocks fa back |
| 20105s | off there we go now they could use it |
| 20109s | out of the points Le de goes has the |
| 20110s | support there but the blizzard stop |
| 20112s | Queen D from getting any more |
| 20114s | advancement towards the point overtime |
| 20116s | taking down now lfs just have that |
| 20118s | defensible position now fa Rising have |
| 20121s | to regroup for that street phace a is |
| 20123s | going to have as well the sound bar to |
| 20126s | try and snowball because it took so long |
| 20128s | for lfs to pick up point a they need |
| 20130s | this next fight to be clean that's |
| 20132s | exactly what they needed Kit Kat takes |
| 20135s | down her mirror and lfs have been able |
| 20137s | to push their way through one of the |
| 20140s | hardest chokes in game that's huge it |
| 20141s | means they don't have to worry about the |
| 20142s | May coming through from |
| 20144s | Willock shot that's two so far for kick |
| 20147s | out by the way after the overclock so |
| 20149s | maybe they built some confidence needed |
| 20150s | to continue their rain however Fable |
| 20152s | Rising here Moxy I mean they've got olds |
| 20154s | ready to go I mean we've already seen |
| 20157s | the stack of the flux and the blizzard |
| 20158s | we could well see the stack of the flux |
| 20161s | into the overclock so that the soan is |
| 20163s | able to rip through those low Health |
| 20165s | targets oh no almost gets her head clean |
| 20169s | off by peeking that off angle on STS but |
| 20172s | Kat's still able to find the kill so the |
| 20174s | flank Lucio was unsuccessful Kit Kat |
| 20177s | still on the low ground able to find the |
| 20178s | kill and they're actually winning in |
| 20179s | terms of cool Downs right now overclock |
| 20181s | now from Kit Kat to continue their rain |
| 20183s | jumps over the top side and oh my God |
| 20186s | they're able to hit so many good shots |
| 20187s | in this one three for them sleeping Feld |
| 20190s | just has to back up around the corner |
| 20191s | play for their lives but they definitely |
| 20193s | could get staggered here they have so |
| 20196s | see the power of this remat though |
| 20198s | Vortex into overclock to slow all of the |
| 20200s | players from Fable Rising so clean kiat |
| 20203s | able to line up her shots as a result |
| 20205s | however Fable Rising coming in with the |
| 20207s | over contest they've got five ultimates |
| 20209s | and D they're going to use them there's |
| 20211s | that captive Sun it doesn't do anything |
| 20214s | against damage maker like you said just |
| 20215s | getting so much value on the ratra Kit |
| 20217s | Kat as well through that able to get the |
| 20219s | kills wizard on the point but it's far |
| 20221s | too late Willow I mean you've got no |
| 20223s | teammates as much as you've clutched |
| 20225s | earlier now it's not winnable and lfs |
| 20227s | Moxy against the odds now have two |
| 20229s | minutes in third phase after their |
| 20230s | overtime take first yeah but fa Rising |
| 20233s | coming in with that contest they did |
| 20234s | trade for ultimates but they have slowed |
| 20237s | lfs and burnt them out of getting to |
| 20239s | play aggressively with the space off of |
| 20241s | either the overclock the annihilation or |
| 20244s | the sound barrier as a result if we go |
| 20246s | back to that default setting the |
| 20247s | defensive team's always going to have |
| 20249s | that advantage unless Kit Kat can try |
| 20251s | and find these opening |
| 20253s | shots cat drops to build those shots and |
| 20257s | eventually the N mat it to run out a |
| 20260s | rising look to re-engage with their |
| 20262s | ultimates immediately popping their |
| 20265s | overlock now goes aggressive but takes |
| 20267s | those pumes to the facee and no heals |
| 20268s | are there the immortality field where |
| 20271s | was it no soour in this fight now for fa |
| 20274s | Rising they're able to trade one Willow |
| 20276s | has been just as good with the right |
| 20278s | clicks as having a rail gun shot that |
| 20281s | actually gives them the edge and with |
| 20282s | that Queen be is able to find Sage maker |
| 20284s | kick C Falls and with the carries down |
| 20286s | of lfs everybody's just going to get |
| 20288s | staggered now a minute and 12 seconds |
| 20290s | left now for lfs lfs unfortunately tried |
| 20293s | to use the blizzard as well to turn a |
| 20295s | couple more kills into their favor so |
| 20297s | fav Rising W able to hold on to this |
| 20300s | Main Road approach Sage maker now off |
| 20302s | the raater onto the Reinhardt well |
| 20304s | coverage with that shield on the |
| 20306s | approach but it also means a lot more |
| 20308s | pressure when it breaks |
| 20310s | finger walks in there's the net Matrix |
| 20312s | like you said that Shield goes down so |
| 20314s | fast blizzard to follow it up but it was |
| 20316s | after everybody's moved |
| 20318s | up caught out though they were a bit too |
| 20321s | close and then Willow hits the shot oh |
| 20324s | my God that was nearly a 360 but it |
| 20325s | wasn't a blizzard necessarily however |
| 20326s | that's still two for fable |
| 20328s | Rising huge coming through from Willow |
| 20331s | and now she gets to move up play |
| 20333s | aggressive Sage maker at least knows |
| 20335s | that you've been able to walk forward |
| 20336s | and very quickly burn out the |
| 20338s | amplification Matrix so fa won't have it |
| 20340s | for overtime which is the most crucial |
| 20342s | point for lfs to be able to keep that |
| 20344s | presence on C daker walks in just trying |
| 20347s | to get a lot of that swing damage the |
| 20349s | deals understanding that backs up kit |
| 20351s | kat again in the clutch able to find |
| 20353s | those rail gun shots want a little bit |
| 20355s | more as overclock like you said go |
| 20358s | aggressive with it got the immortality |
| 20360s | field duck has the follow up off the |
| 20361s | body shots it doesn't matter if they're |
| 20363s | body or head shot they're able to get |
| 20365s | the kills regardless 3K for kitat in |
| 20368s | this fight and over time they do it |
| 20370s | again I mean sleep stagger it out as |
| 20374s | well I mean who's going to do a touch |
| 20375s | now for fable Ry yeah captive Sun but |
| 20377s | hasn't been able to do anything else in |
| 20379s | the past Captain Sun comes back but |
| 20381s | immortality field is here it only gets |
| 20382s | onto the Lucio if Anna can separate it |
| 20385s | won't get much value AO Falls but it |
| 20387s | doesn't matter Sage maker with the |
| 20389s | pressure on the cart gets it done lfs |
| 20392s | against all the odds they're able to C |
| 20394s | full out on Kings Row so it's a huge |
| 20397s | gamble going for the Reinhart without |
| 20399s | that symmetra especially when you know |
| 20401s | you're playing into a team that has so |
| 20402s | much poke pressure coming out with both |
| 20405s | a Baptist and a lari and a soan but the |
| 20408s | arari is actually a huge reason why |
| 20410s | sandwich maker decides that she's going |
| 20413s | to make Swap and that's because captive |
| 20416s | sun gets entirely blocked by a Reinhard |
| 20418s | Shield it does catch onto the Lucio yes |
| 20421s | but it does actually stop the connection |
| 20424s | onto anyone else on the team and when we |
| 20426s | do see that confidence for lfs to be |
| 20429s | able to walk forward knowing that they |
| 20431s | have the blanket of the Reinhard Shield |
| 20432s | which has so much more Health than the |
| 20435s | ratas they have the confidence to put |
| 20437s | kiat into angles to try and take on her |
| 20440s | mirror and if you noticed too MOX I mean |
| 20443s | Sage maker was getting a ton value out |
| 20446s | of just Rin swings in general and then |
| 20448s | also in the like you said pumping out |
| 20450s | that damage and you also saw the |
| 20452s | supports were really taxed as well right |
| 20453s | I mean on on Lam both had a crazy amount |
| 20456s | of healing compared to fa Rising |
| 20458s | supports so you know that could be a |
| 20460s | Difference Maker holding in this and |
| 20462s | Moxy look they have the same composition |
| 20463s | that they ran on their offense well you |
| 20466s | have a m you want to try and take |
| 20467s | advantage of it right if someone gets |
| 20469s | walled off a rising if they don't run |
| 20471s | that Baptist they don't have immortality |
| 20473s | field to throw onto whoever gets pined |
| 20476s | on out Fable Rising however going to be |
| 20479s | currently just teasing that Wier |
| 20481s | definitely not locking in with it fully |
| 20482s | just wanting to see with the damage |
| 20483s | pleas whether or not they can pick |
| 20485s | someone off out of position before |
| 20487s | swapping to the compeition they're |
| 20489s | actually going to roll |
| 20490s | wh and now early wall from lfs damage |
| 20494s | maker trying to play around the statue |
| 20496s | wants to try to maintain that space wall |
| 20498s | is there but can easily walk around it |
| 20500s | understanding that sandwich maker Tri |
| 20501s | the whole close though really just |
| 20502s | trying to buy a lot of time for kick tat |
| 20505s | that's been their main carry K goes get |
| 20507s | get thrown in there for sleepy don't |
| 20509s | have that now towards the point for the |
| 20510s | team to rotate continually using it now |
| 20513s | deciding to dle it sandwich maker also |
| 20515s | has pretty much an evenly healthy Shield |
| 20518s | immortality there for sandwi maker get |
| 20519s | some pressure off but it doesn't matter |
| 20521s | because they're just walked down from fa |
| 20523s | Rising the pressure far too much from |
| 20525s | the sigma and Fa Rising supports nobody |
| 20528s | else in L FS is going able to touch the |
| 20530s | point they're all going to get staggered |
| 20531s | out now Tech use of the sigma Shield to |
| 20534s | stop the r getting healed from lammer |
| 20538s | every single time sleepy e just throws |
| 20539s | it out disconnects the r from that |
| 20542s | Baptist as a result lammer is pressured |
| 20544s | into using the lamp in the second that |
| 20546s | cool down is removed cable Rising get to |
| 20548s | properly commit into that fight and lfs |
| 20551s | of no choice but to back on off with |
| 20553s | this right now in street phace it's |
| 20554s | going to be even harder try an approach |
| 20557s | into this fight since you don't |
| 20558s | originally have control |
| 20561s | oftion shot at that choke point s walks |
| 20564s | around it this time but that Shield |
| 20565s | pressure is just a lot May wall but the |
| 20568s | cers runs through it cancels that |
| 20571s | morality field side of lfs so they |
| 20573s | sustain through a lot of the damage that |
| 20575s | put R is putting down but oh my God what |
| 20577s | a shot the soj able rising and then with |
| 20580s | the captive Sun they're able to find the |
| 20582s | Mur as well stagger comes through duck |
| 20584s | will able to find Queen B on the Stagger |
| 20586s | however a rising will keep this payLo |
| 20588s | pushing forward unless just being |
| 20590s | annoying eventually will fall kit cat |
| 20593s | going to be coming into this next fight |
| 20595s | with the overclock but Sage maker |
| 20596s | unfortunately just not able to build the |
| 20598s | shatter this Reinhard has been so |
| 20601s | heavily pressured by all of that poke |
| 20603s | potential coming through from Fable |
| 20604s | rising and as a result it's playing into |
| 20606s | the amount of space that duck and Kit |
| 20608s | Kat have to be able to set these Halls |
| 20610s | up dou not able to find any of these |
| 20612s | cheeky little angles that we see Willow |
| 20615s | taking I would like to see Willow hide |
| 20618s | there potentially but it doesn't matter |
| 20619s | because they're just dead to the |
| 20620s | Blizzard damage Falls immediately |
| 20623s | fantastic from them K Kat tries the |
| 20625s | equalize it goes over the top with the |
| 20626s | overclock that could be huge but they |
| 20628s | need to find the kills and they're not |
| 20629s | able to Willow hit those shots oh my |
| 20632s | gosh what an icicle and with that Fable |
| 20635s | Rising able to just keep pushing forward |
| 20637s | lfs going to give up the objective and |
| 20639s | five minutes and 20 seconds now for |
| 20640s | fable Rising on the third what a |
| 20642s | blizzard coming through from Willow they |
| 20644s | know that this Reinhard everyone from |
| 20646s | Fable Rising they understand this |
| 20649s | Reinhard is the anchor for the |
| 20650s | composition without the Reinhard |
| 20653s | everyone from Fable Rising gets to play |
| 20654s | incredibly aggressive they don't have to |
| 20656s | worry about being pinned and immediately |
| 20658s | killed they don't have to worry about |
| 20659s | burning lamp out early because of the |
| 20661s | post pressure always forcing Al into |
| 20662s | using de first saage maker without the |
| 20665s | shadow not able to move past the amp and |
| 20668s | shot Fable rising down down yeah the |
| 20671s | beach drop unfortunately just going to |
| 20672s | go absolutely nowhere this rail gun shot |
| 20676s | towards the very end could give lfs a |
| 20678s | re-engage they have shattered a second |
| 20679s | and Matrix to sustain towards the point |
| 20682s | May wol for now slows down that but |
| 20684s | there's that Blizzard from Duck to the |
| 20687s | catch but out to catch his sleepy eels |
| 20689s | and the immortality field isn't there so |
| 20690s | it's all for sage |
| 20692s | maker and back to the spawn Fable Rising |
| 20694s | goes but Moxy that's a massive time B |
| 20697s | for them to work with well minutes and |
| 20700s | 20 seconds like you said that is a lot |
| 20703s | of time Fable Rising can just continue |
| 20705s | applying that's pressure forcing elest |
| 20707s | to throwing an ultimate into every |
| 20709s | single fight to try and hold on to this |
| 20712s | High Ground for as long as possible |
| 20714s | saage maker trying to play around that |
| 20715s | corner not getting spotted out are you |
| 20717s | going to be able to land that shadow |
| 20719s | you're looking for no the sigma |
| 20721s | Caesar that that that is a very |
| 20723s | interesting angle to hold shatter up the |
| 20725s | high that potentially but doesn't to get |
| 20727s | it off Miss go for the flank shatter |
| 20729s | though |
| 20730s | that inside angle waiting for it just |
| 20732s | decides to play it straight up |
| 20733s | immortality kill used to sustain them |
| 20735s | goes for the shatter and it's massive |
| 20738s | basically a Kaiser shatter Forte the |
| 20740s | rest of AEL Rising just have to jump off |
| 20742s | the map and that could start the |
| 20744s | comeback LS huge shatter and like you've |
| 20747s | said that could very well start the |
| 20749s | comeback for lfs is going to have |
| 20751s | overclock for the next fight if it |
| 20753s | doesn't find kills all is going to have |
| 20756s | the sound barrier to use the Sleepy eels |
| 20758s | tries to turn |
| 20759s | that fight into their favor with the |
| 20761s | sigma flux lfs now putting themselves |
| 20764s | into a position for the Reinhard to be |
| 20765s | able to find the V to good wall separate |
| 20767s | sleepy eels away from that team the fire |
| 20769s | strike forcing out the shift |
| 20772s | early they try to walk in captive Sun |
| 20774s | here to maybe follow up on this gravitic |
| 20776s | flux but they don't use it just yet beat |
| 20777s | drop Force now towards the back trying |
| 20780s | to deal with so on the top K hits the |
| 20781s | shots come back come back through they |
| 20784s | lose both their teammates though and |
| 20785s | then there's the captive Sun beautiful |
| 20787s | follow up Duck will trade back sleepy |
| 20789s | eels at the very least so potential |
| 20791s | recontest is here but what a captive son |
| 20793s | reengage table RIS yeah L's so close to |
| 20796s | has amplification Matrix but a huge wall |
| 20799s | coming for from Willow forces lfs into |
| 20802s | going wide the just able to tap in time |
| 20805s | getat with the kill onto the soan and |
| 20807s | might have turned the fight into lfs's |
| 20809s | favor yeah that's what I'm worried about |
| 20811s | I mean these spawns are so close that |
| 20814s | really a lot of these teams have a hard |
| 20816s | time closing |
| 20817s | out lfs stabilized but they have a |
| 20820s | wrecking ball don't know if that's |
| 20822s | really what they |
| 20824s | want I mean the wrecking Ball's going to |
| 20826s | be able to disrupt every single time F |
| 20828s | Rising try and get into position you can |
| 20830s | send the racking ball through especially |
| 20832s | when you want to have amplification |
| 20833s | Matrix it might not find kills but it's |
| 20834s | still delaying fa rising from being able |
| 20837s | to make that move I mean this this could |
| 20839s | be weighing on fa Rising like you said |
| 20841s | Matrix now for que be engaged overlock |
| 20843s | here as well when they go with it damage |
| 20846s | gets rid of the Pilon over the top but |
| 20848s | there's that an m Tri and there's the |
| 20849s | overclock to follow up on up BS |
| 20852s | immortality field down really there's |
| 20854s | not a lot of sustain here for lfs so |
| 20856s | it's all inage maker to create a lot of |
| 20857s | space in which they're doing so at the |
| 20859s | moment cat's able to find Queen Beast so |
| 20861s | a lot of the heals gone still have the |
| 20863s | pylon though will is able to find duck |
| 20864s | and no more Tracer now for lfs it's all |
| 20867s | on kit cap but there's no heals for them |
| 20870s | sleepy heels will get the followup kill |
| 20873s | Anna comes to the Lane breing ball to |
| 20875s | just stall they need to get this down |
| 20879s | they want a chance here lfs on their |
| 20882s | attack to have a potential to attack |
| 20883s | they need to get now below 14 seconds |
| 20886s | there's nobody else here blizzard as |
| 20888s | well Lucio comes into touch captive son |
| 20890s | and yes they do it with a minute in wait |
| 20893s | no oh my God the rucky balls here five |
| 20895s | four three can anybody else touch the |
| 20897s | mines out 1 second oh no way they do it |
| 20901s | with a second on top of a minute lfs |
| 20904s | they don't get a chance now because of |
| 20907s | it oh no |
| 20910s | oh 1 minute and 1 second oh are you |
| 20914s | kidding me are you kidding me I've not |
| 20917s | seen it that close ever I don't think |
| 20920s | yeah that's that's crazy that's actually |
| 20924s | crazy it's really sad too cuz lfs off of |
| 20927s | the Hammond mines coming through from |
| 20929s | sandwich maker it really look like they |
| 20931s | we're going to be able to push him into |
| 20934s | OT I'm just |
| 20936s | impressed I mean you said it yourself |
| 20938s | King row defensive spawn points on C are |
| 20942s | incredibly close and so many of these |
| 20945s | Heroes like lfs when they swap to all of |
| 20946s | those really mobile heroes they know |
| 20949s | they have amplification Matrix they know |
| 20951s | that they're sacrificing being able to |
| 20953s | poke through amplification matrix by |
| 20955s | going for that longer store potential so |
| 20957s | when amp comes through it's not for lfs |
| 20960s | to try and find kills for it's literally |
| 20961s | just to try and burn the clock down that |
| 20963s | Fable Rising have access to and once amp |
| 20966s | is gone it just becomes coordinating |
| 20968s | players to be able to on that coton like |
| 20971s | you said it is so impressive that |
| 20973s | they're able to do |
| 20975s | that a lot of it comes down to Target |
| 20978s | focus and mechanics and all these |
| 20980s | different things that I'm sure these |
| 20981s | players are focusing on learning Widow |
| 20983s | shop by the way ready to go but |
| 20984s | obviously nobody's going to fall for the |
| 20985s | Widow spawn these days in this together |
| 20989s | all of us yeah it's not quite 2017 it is |
| 20993s | 2023 and as a result we're going to be |
| 20995s | seeing the sigma sandwich maker yet |
| 20997s | again on that Reinhardt trying to find |
| 20999s | Value cut off from the team by the S |
| 21001s | Shield again yeah immortality buil |
| 21003s | immediately there to keep him healthy at |
| 21005s | the very least F that cool Down's now |
| 21007s | gone they're going for more though I |
| 21008s | like this from lfs the aggression is |
| 21011s | perfectly |
| 21013s | timed so they ever so slightly change up |
| 21016s | the positioning Sage maker moves forward |
| 21018s | to bait sleepy eels into taking the 1 V |
| 21020s | one with the tank and also to force |
| 21021s | Willow into using that wall but duck |
| 21024s | sticks close to the R's flank sees her |
| 21027s | tank getting pressured pops out and |
| 21029s | using the primary rips through the sness |
| 21033s | health they want to walk in ba |
| 21037s | around but immediate counter from duck |
| 21039s | that's nice for now but duck stun |
| 21040s | immortality FS force on both sides |
| 21043s | actually event they'll be taking down fa |
| 21046s | Rising able to get the opening pick and |
| 21047s | duck Falls to and in overtime Fable |
| 21049s | Rising are doing it off of some |
| 21051s | fantastic so and blade 3K in that fight |
| 21055s | nobody else now for lfs can touch and B |
| 21058s | Rising up two in this first to three |
| 21061s | yeah Fable Rising even though that first |
| 21063s | push fell a little bit apart really good |
| 21065s | stuff from alfs to identify why they |
| 21067s | lost point a so quickly why that |
| 21069s | Reinhardt is going to be such a biger |
| 21071s | gamble to run in comparison to the sigma |
| 21075s | but in that last fight fa Rising with |
| 21077s | the composition just have so much |
| 21078s | sustainability and so much aggression |
| 21080s | right they know they're playing into a |
| 21082s | Reinhard they can run the allari they |
| 21083s | know that the pylon is potentially going |
| 21085s | to be sticking up in that fight for as |
| 21087s | long as possible since you can put It |
| 21089s | Out Of Reach of the Rin Hammer if you're |
| 21091s | running into something like a ratra or a |
| 21092s | sigma with the range that they have a |
| 21095s | lot of the time that pylon goes down |
| 21096s | because the tank is in the forward |
| 21097s | position to be able to dispatch it |
| 21100s | however having baptized allari sojan May |
| 21103s | and all of the additional pressure with |
| 21105s | the sigma heaped on top just means |
| 21108s | unfortunately that if lfs aren't able to |
| 21110s | build the ultimate in that one minute |
| 21112s | which already is going to be such a huge |
| 21114s | ass they just don't have the sustain nor |
| 21117s | damage bur potential to find any of the |
| 21120s | kills when fa Rising take the |
| 21122s | fight that was so clean from them and |
| 21126s | you know besides Willow sorry if I |
| 21128s | pronounce this right it's Casey casy |
| 21129s | honey Cris right I mean such good sojor |
| 21132s | play know to counter K Kat who was also |
| 21135s | playing well right I think at points Kat |
| 21136s | was the star of the show but you know |
| 21138s | consistently in the clutch Kat was |
| 21140s | coming through however at the very end |
| 21142s | the very last fight the one that |
| 21144s | mattered especially since lfs built up |
| 21146s | the old in the previous one I mean |
| 21148s | really just clean work out of a rising |
| 21150s | and a consistency has in there yeah Nila |
| 21154s | as well really impressing on the allari |
| 21156s | pylons will put into really good and |
| 21158s | inconvenient spots for lfs to deal with |
| 21161s | here we can see that insane stor coming |
| 21162s | through from lfs identifying from Fable |
| 21166s | okay they're not going to be playing for |
| 21168s | pick potential we just have to be able |
| 21169s | to build up ultimates and stop them from |
| 21171s | being able to contest and they do a very |
| 21173s | good job just as we see lfs able to |
| 21175s | cycle through the time bank oh my |
| 21178s | goodness |
| 21179s | we |
| 21182s | 12,584 |
| 21185s | eliminations what an insane performance |
| 21188s | coming through from her she may not have |
| 21189s | done a 360 but I think she made up for |
| 21192s | it in terms of damage and kills that she |
| 21195s | finds that's insane that is a whole four |
| 21198s | more blizzards built up off of the |
| 21200s | damage that she's able to dispatch yeah |
| 21203s | I mean she she 360 La duck in the race |
| 21205s | so I mean yeah that was lit you said 7, |
| 21208s | was more damage that's crazy or not |
| 21211s | 7,000 was it 6,000 basically 6,500 but |
| 21213s | yeah I mean really insane work from |
| 21214s | Willow like you said and this may player |
| 21217s | has been so good she's really been a |
| 21219s | standout player for this team and you |
| 21221s | know a lot of these players Moxy are |
| 21223s | trying to you know go you know improve |
| 21226s | through the ranks win the tournament and |
| 21227s | I know learning has been a big um you |
| 21230s | know the biggest thing that a lot of |
| 21231s | players have talked about even in the |
| 21232s | Challenger Series they'll talk about how |
| 21234s | they're really trying to improve and |
| 21235s | learn and you know work on some things |
| 21237s | if for this team if if they could build |
| 21239s | around Willow right if they can |
| 21240s | consistently do what they just did in |
| 21242s | this series and maybe have a little bit |
| 21244s | better follow-up damage right the only |
| 21246s | reason that they didn't fully cap out on |
| 21248s | Kings roow with a lot of time is because |
| 21250s | you know they were getting a little |
| 21251s | maybe panicked right towards the very |
| 21252s | end if they can reel that in maybe calm |
| 21255s | the enage down a little bit focus on |
| 21257s | targets and really just hone in on those |
| 21259s | kills they'll they're in a great spot |
| 21261s | this team looks great yeah I would say |
| 21263s | honestly this team is the epitome of |
| 21265s | what calling all heroes is trying to |
| 21267s | build as well right these are players |
| 21268s | who are maybe not quite ready to make |
| 21270s | the jump into challenges but you can |
| 21272s | definitely see that given enough time |
| 21276s | and given enough sort of notice and a |
| 21279s | lot of help and experience from some of |
| 21281s | these other players coming from the |
| 21282s | Challenger Series they will be ready to |
| 21285s | make that jump between rising and push |
| 21288s | on up into the challenges series the |
| 21290s | foundations for an incredibly strong |
| 21292s | team and strong players as a result are |
| 21295s | already being laid and it is wonderful |
| 21298s | to see because not only is it there for |
| 21300s | us to see but it's very obvious that |
| 21302s | Fable and all of their players and |
| 21303s | coaches and staff have picked up on it |
| 21306s | as well they have and speaking about |
| 21308s | picking up the they're going to pick up |
| 21309s | a map surasa is going to be the next one |
| 21312s | obviously picked by LS because they are |
| 21315s | down to in the series this is the map |
| 21318s | decider flash point of all things Moxy |
| 21321s | what do you think this has been like the |
| 21322s | consistent map 3 in the in tournaments |
| 21325s | in the in the scene generally in |
| 21326s | OverWatch right what do you think about |
| 21328s | I mean CU it was recently like in these |
| 21331s | first the threes a lot of the time it |
| 21332s | was like push right like now now it's |
| 21334s | moving M back over to flash point |
| 21336s | instead I mean do you like that decision |
| 21338s | maybe instead of just have flash point |
| 21339s | for that M number three it's kind of |
| 21342s | interesting right yeah I feel like the |
| 21345s | two map types are sort of Polar |
| 21347s | Opposites right flasho is so many fights |
| 21351s | in one map and a lot of the time it's |
| 21353s | sort of identifying okay when is best to |
| 21356s | save ultimate when is best to to cutle |
| 21359s | losses and give up one of those points |
| 21360s | that're heading into the next fight |
| 21361s | we're going to be at an advantage and in |
| 21363s | that vein it does share a huge |
| 21365s | similarity with push but the difference |
| 21368s | is flasho is one off of multiple fights |
| 21371s | a lot of the time push is one off of |
| 21373s | like two original fight to see who wins |
| 21378s | that first push and gets the initial |
| 21380s | distance and then the fight afterwards a |
| 21382s | lot of the time is for the other team to |
| 21385s | decide where to keep that objective for |
| 21387s | as long as possible so they have the |
| 21389s | more favorable ground to start those |
| 21392s | fights off of so I can definitely see |
| 21394s | players being a lot happier that flash |
| 21396s | point is where they actually go on the |
| 21398s | third map because like I've said when |
| 21400s | you have an entire map being one off of |
| 21403s | two fights the first of which you're not |
| 21405s | going to have any ultimates because it's |
| 21407s | literally the first fight of the map |
| 21409s | that puts so much more pressure on |
| 21412s | players like your DPS to find those |
| 21414s | opening picks first and if it doesn't go |
| 21416s | well that puts even more pressure on |
| 21418s | them to being able to turn the entire |
| 21420s | thing around great point I mean all that |
| 21422s | is going to be on both AC honey crisp |
| 21425s | and also Willow meanwhile Kit Kat and |
| 21427s | duck obviously trying to equalize it |
| 21429s | obviously KitKat was doing a lot of work |
| 21431s | on King's Row but for duck you know this |
| 21433s | is really a prove it or lose kind of |
| 21435s | situation while sleepy eels is going to |
| 21436s | start on the junker Queen for fable r i |
| 21439s | mean if you get wed off they're going to |
| 21440s | be able to have access to things like |
| 21442s | that shout you can see duck already |
| 21443s | coming under a lot of pressure as Willow |
| 21445s | finding the wall trying to isolate Sage |
| 21449s | nice nice block from Willow to stay |
| 21452s | alive for now Sage walks towards that |
| 21454s | point without the immortality field is |
| 21456s | there enough healing so much pressure is |
| 21458s | on the supports |
| 21460s | unfortunately Force damage maker they |
| 21462s | fall to KC money grit and now aable |
| 21464s | Rising just going to walk forward no |
| 21466s | pick offs either I mean that was |
| 21467s | basically a Flawless |
| 21469s | engage pable Rising have identified the |
| 21472s | sandwich maker on this ratra is able to |
| 21474s | be pulled out of position and they've |
| 21476s | doubled down on it sleepy eels with the |
| 21478s | jagged blade is going to be displacing |
| 21480s | this remat and yanking them after things |
| 21482s | like immortality field have already been |
| 21484s | bullied out of lfs's side by Willow with |
| 21487s | these walls already you can see the |
| 21489s | difference as well in terms of damage |
| 21490s | below 71% of the blizzard in comparison |
| 21492s | to duck who's just not being able to |
| 21494s | find an angle or get close enough for |
| 21496s | fear of being yanked in by the |
| 21498s | jum talk about pickapp being a carry |
| 21501s | they've got the overlock for this fight |
| 21502s | 6% nearly on the board and you mentioned |
| 21504s | only two fights this is the second one |
| 21506s | so LS lose this |
| 21508s | pretty much all but over on this first |
| 21510s | point over blocking kiit cat pop |
| 21511s | immortality able to keep s maker alive |
| 21513s | can they find the kill s maker Falls |
| 21516s | Queen on the other side low will fall |
| 21518s | into the midair shot from Kit Kat that's |
| 21519s | an amazing equalizer but no more rail |
| 21522s | gun shots left right you burnt that |
| 21524s | overclock and Willow with the defa |
| 21526s | icicle able to find one make it two 92 |
| 21529s | 93% on the board now and with those |
| 21531s | shots from Willow they don't even need |
| 21533s | to use ultimates the overclock was |
| 21535s | popped for lsf but they don't even win |
| 21537s | the first point and now they Rising win |
| 21540s | round or Point number one there's just |
| 21543s | so much suain and damage even lacking a |
| 21545s | tank fa Rising have just all of the self |
| 21548s | heuel with the may all of the mobility |
| 21550s | of the power slide coming through from a |
| 21552s | honey crisp and as a result they're |
| 21555s | still going to have things like the |
| 21556s | blizzard and an overclock to take this |
| 21559s | next fight lfs not able to rotate in |
| 21561s | time either because they died late as a |
| 21564s | result Fable Rising with control of the |
| 21566s | spacing which gives them a such a huge |
| 21568s | Advantage yet again all those ultimates |
| 21571s | especially coming into Jun the queen Al |
| 21573s | that's going to be scary amplification |
| 21575s | matri there from lamr at least they have |
| 21577s | a beat to potentially counter but |
| 21578s | overclock KC on the other side able to |
| 21580s | get rid of the immortality field also |
| 21583s | poke Down sandwich fortunately misses |
| 21584s | the second chop we hit that last one now |
| 21586s | ant Matrix you beat drop re-engage |
| 21589s | counter aggression but that is |
| 21590s | immediately misplaced because KY money |
| 21593s | chip able to or honey chip able to hit |
| 21595s | that shot of the sandwich maker the rest |
| 21597s | of lfs fall and really good all usage |
| 21600s | for fable Rising only had to use two |
| 21602s | there yeah the fact that sleepy eels is |
| 21605s | able to hold on to their Rampage and |
| 21607s | Onna invested sound barrier in that |
| 21611s | fight Dustin that anti-heal is going to |
| 21614s | potentially connect onto every single |
| 21615s | member of lfs if they try and take that |
| 21617s | same rotation on side angle and as a |
| 21620s | result they're having to mix up how they |
| 21623s | rotate to this point and that means more |
| 21624s | percentage for fa Rising for |
| 21627s | free |
| 21629s | now have to set up this fight matters |
| 21632s | again just like the previous point where |
| 21634s | Kit Kat tried to clutch up with the |
| 21636s | overclock it's going to be a very |
| 21637s | similar situation they don't have that |
| 21639s | overclock this fight they've got duck |
| 21640s | blizzard but nice disengage from Fable |
| 21643s | rising to give up that space temporarily |
| 21645s | allows them to potentially come back but |
| 21647s | duck was able to find the kill counter |
| 21649s | Blizzard from Willow that's one and they |
| 21651s | get a second oh no it's into the ratra |
| 21653s | ultimate T just so low able to find s |
| 21656s | sleepy but echo's there with the trade |
| 21658s | Willow still here on the point |
| 21659s | eventually will be taken out by Duck |
| 21661s | luckily for lfs in the clutch flight |
| 21664s | fight they're able to Win It 99% Fable |
| 21667s | Rising were able to build however lfs |
| 21668s | are now in control cost them two |
| 21671s | ultimates Kit Kat going to have to make |
| 21672s | the heroin play this next fight it's |
| 21676s | Fable Rising they've got the sound |
| 21677s | barrier they're going to be able to use |
| 21679s | it to play counter aggression to the |
| 21682s | overclock to get sleepy eels into |
| 21683s | position to use that Rampage the |
| 21686s | difference is LF has winning that fight |
| 21687s | now can position themselves so they |
| 21689s | don't all get hit by it both Lucio's |
| 21692s | beat drops have been so well timed that |
| 21694s | maybe even kick cat overclock could be |
| 21695s | negated so the eeld ready to go with |
| 21698s | that oh so low fall on the 20 hp but |
| 21701s | able to get it back with her own healing |
| 21703s | abilities and then also with the beat |
| 21705s | drop through that damage output lfs gets |
| 21708s | deleted nobody else here besides Anna |
| 21711s | Kit Kat I mean sure potentially could |
| 21713s | come back in touch but no it's not going |
| 21715s | to be here and Fable Rising will capture |
| 21717s | the point overtime slowly going to get |
| 21720s | ticked down Fable Rising now have two of |
| 21722s | the three one point left now they need |
| 21725s | to capture to win this map so here's the |
| 21727s | thing it didn't matter how many Rampage |
| 21729s | hit in that fight it just needed to |
| 21732s | connect onto one and it connected onto |
| 21734s | kiad as the overclock came through b |
| 21737s | Rising saw the anti-heal effect knew |
| 21739s | there was no stand barrier jumped on the |
| 21742s | oan to shut down the ultimate and as a |
| 21745s | result are able to win out the fight |
| 21747s | entirely |
| 21748s | not going to be able to rotate onto the |
| 21750s | point to be the first ones there IA oh |
| 21753s | that is going to be incredibly |
| 21755s | detrimental to getting duck into |
| 21756s | position for the de to the left |
| 21760s | side Hing out R an swing find the find |
| 21765s | the damage necessarily just yet also do |
| 21767s | have a lot of heals because of it now |
| 21769s | has to back away from the an Matrix |
| 21771s | can't do so damage will find them but |
| 21774s | took a lot of damage in the meantime |
| 21776s | able to heal up however Willow able to |
| 21777s | hit a shot on the kick Kat after kick |
| 21779s | Kat found one so lfs still has the |
| 21782s | person advantage in this fight has to do |
| 21784s | with the blizzard though from Willow I |
| 21785s | think they can win it beat drop here to |
| 21787s | sustain the Boop actually would make |
| 21789s | things awkward because Sage can't get |
| 21790s | head shot there after that Boop so now |
| 21793s | lfs will actually slowly get staggered |
| 21795s | out still the blizzard got its value |
| 21798s | even in this fight now duck does tra it |
| 21800s | back though lfs trying to continue on |
| 21803s | the point with other tank player Willow |
| 21804s | will get found by Kit Kat AA is found by |
| 21807s | sleepy though because their back |
| 21808s | immortality fi also the delay and B RIS |
| 21811s | could still win this coming back yeah |
| 21813s | they're stoling out the delay comes |
| 21815s | through from Sleepy heels amazing work |
| 21818s | from this junker Queen bab ring now 25% |
| 21822s | left oh not only do you stall to almost |
| 21826s | 80% in one fight you win it as a result |
| 21829s | you now have control of Choke lfs dck |
| 21831s | might have this m lizard to be able to |
| 21834s | brute force your way back in time to |
| 21836s | actually come in with that over |
| 21838s | time I mean what s maker do all he can't |
| 21841s | even live there he able to get two off |
| 21844s | that overclock eventually the Rampage is |
| 21846s | here and really nobody else can touch |
| 21848s | for lfs the blizzards here from Duck get |
| 21850s | it nothing can be done at this point FS |
| 21854s | it's pretty much over Fable Rising what |
| 21858s | a game from them an absolute amazing |
| 21861s | series 3fs and move forward into the |
| 21864s | grand finals what a performance coming |
| 21866s | through from this team definitely my |
| 21868s | favorite uh in terms of who's probably |
| 21871s | going to be walking away with that |
| 21874s | Rising title sleepy eel picking up play |
| 21876s | of the game on the Jun Queen this is |
| 21877s | going to be the Rampage there it is |
| 21880s | straight into the back line and |
| 21881s | immediately you can see Willow knows |
| 21883s | okay exposion anti- healed |
| 21886s | cool pushes onto that space denies the |
| 21889s | overclock that was the one thing that |
| 21891s | lfs had to be able to turn the fight in |
| 21894s | their favor if they'd opened up and used |
| 21896s | the overclock you might not have been |
| 21898s | able to find kills but you would have |
| 21899s | been able to store a percentage and also |
| 21901s | maybe find a pick off to just push Fable |
| 21904s | Rising away from being able to find that |
| 21906s | approach and put themselves back onto |
| 21908s | the point because that is your concern |
| 21910s | right if the Jun Queen is able to close |
| 21911s | up the distance you need to deal of her |
| 21914s | in the Poke phase you need to burn |
| 21915s | things like the shout out as soon as |
| 21918s | possible so the rest of the team don't |
| 21920s | have it to get to play incredibly |
| 21922s | aggressively and push all of that space |
| 21924s | that your so and may are trying to |
| 21926s | control and swipe it out from under your |
| 21928s | feet and unfortunately that just |
| 21929s | continues to happen from the very |
| 21930s | beginning of this map yeah you know what |
| 21933s | I I definitely was very surprised to |
| 21935s | even see so in the first place Mo but it |
| 21938s | got it got a lot of the value done right |
| 21939s | I mean there was like you said not much |
| 21940s | that lfs could do against it but also |
| 21943s | the overall team play I would say is a |
| 21945s | big reason that Fable Rising succeeded |
| 21947s | right obviously you had the May player |
| 21949s | of Willow just honestly being an |
| 21951s | absolute star for this team getting a |
| 21954s | ton of damage I I don't think we usually |
| 21955s | see ma with that high of damage stats |
| 21957s | either |
| 21958s | well because Willow wasn't well |
| 21960s | sometimes she was playing traditionally |
| 21962s | but a lot of the time because she knows |
| 21964s | that she's going to have so much St to |
| 21965s | be able to play with she sort of ran May |
| 21968s | on this map especially like a pseudo |
| 21971s | Tracer she would throw herself off of |
| 21973s | The High Ground jump into the back line |
| 21976s | and pressure the Baptist into burning |
| 21979s | immortality field and as a result even |
| 21982s | if like you have the coms you have the |
| 21984s | space and your tank player is in that |
| 21985s | forward position looking to try and |
| 21987s | finds a pick or duwel the other tank out |
| 21990s | of having control of their own space |
| 21992s | that's going to Dent the confidence of |
| 21994s | your tank player and make them not want |
| 21996s | to stick around in the fight as long as |
| 21998s | possible they're going to immediately be |
| 22000s | looking to try and find an exit and |
| 22002s | disengagement and as a result every |
| 22004s | single time it felt like lfs were just |
| 22006s | divided by that may that cat amongst the |
| 22009s | pigeons coming in and pushing everyone |
| 22012s | out of |
| 22013s | position yeah and for lfs that means |
| 22016s | they're going to drop down meanwhile |
| 22017s | Fable moving forward we're going to have |
| 22019s | to talk to one of the members of their |
| 22021s | team in a little bit of an interview |
| 22023s | after short break guys so don't go any |
| 22025s | we'll be back with Ash after the |
| 22031s | [Music] |
| 22046s | break |
| 22060s | [Music] |
| 22073s | [Applause] |
| 22076s | he |
| 22081s | [Music] |
| 22084s | [Applause] |
| 22099s | [Music] |
| 22108s | [Applause] |
| 22110s | [Music] |
| 22121s | [Music] |
| 22136s | yeah |
| 22148s | [Music] |
| 22165s | [Music] |
| 22196s | he |
| 22212s | what a wild matchup there an insane win |
| 22215s | for the likes of fable Rising that we |
| 22217s | just saw here within the upper finals |
| 22219s | they solidified themselves and cemented |
| 22221s | that Grand Final spot for tomorrow but |
| 22224s | we've got to talk about the Chipotle |
| 22227s | match |
| 22228s | MVP heading into this one it was a crazy |
| 22233s | game and I think without a doubt it is |
| 22236s | going to be willowron there |
| 22238s | Moxy I mean yeah you you hit the nail |
| 22241s | right on the head is there any TI I |
| 22243s | don't think anyone can argue this is |
| 22246s | insane Willow died |
| 22248s | twice on Sasa and came in with 20 |
| 22254s | eliminations that's numbers that we |
| 22256s | don't know link C even for a hero that |
| 22259s | has so much sustainability on that main |
| 22261s | it really goes to show even though she |
| 22263s | was playing Uber aggressive and full on |
| 22266s | diving head first into the backline a |
| 22268s | lot of the time she was still getting so |
| 22270s | much space created by the rest of her |
| 22271s | team that she survived the encounter |
| 22274s | yeah we were talking about it a little |
| 22275s | bit in the green room as well about the |
| 22277s | fact that she was playing in a |
| 22279s | non-traditional almost M play style in a |
| 22281s | sense where she was going for those |
| 22283s | flanks going for those isolation plays |
| 22286s | and the wall |
| 22287s | in the micro plays coming out for her |
| 22290s | from her were out of this world like |
| 22292s | something that you don't expect within |
| 22294s | this Rising division here Dogman the |
| 22297s | fact that overall I think the |
| 22299s | communication on this squad is at a |
| 22302s | different kind of level it really is and |
| 22304s | if you have a m player popping off as |
| 22306s | much as Willow was you're going to have |
| 22307s | a good time so yeah fantastic work from |
| 22310s | them yeah but we have an interview ready |
| 22312s | so we're going to get a chance to talk |
| 22314s | to njila here on the side of fable |
| 22317s | Rising how are you doing Nila |
| 22319s | congratulations on your win and |
| 22320s | cementing yourselves within the grand |
| 22322s | finals um yeah I mean that was an insane |
| 22326s | game from you guys yeah thank you so |
| 22328s | much um first of all I I really love |
| 22331s | playing with this team will definitely |
| 22333s | deserves the match MVP there she she |
| 22335s | really pops off for us pretty much every |
| 22337s | game and playing with her is always a |
| 22340s | pleasure I want to hear a little bit |
| 22342s | about how you guys have been able to |
| 22344s | take points away from the main Fable |
| 22346s | Squad within Challengers and uh in that |
| 22349s | kind of sense of relationship that you |
| 22351s | have with that team because I think |
| 22352s | everyone not only the audience us on |
| 22355s | desk as well could very much so tell |
| 22357s | that your team coordination and Synergy |
| 22360s | you're able to focus on Heroes within |
| 22362s | the game and really just like nail it |
| 22366s | down was above the level of this |
| 22370s | division in a sense yeah um I'm friends |
| 22373s | with some of the people on the main |
| 22374s | Fable roster I love all of them uh but |
| 22377s | our biggest thing is we scrim a lot we |
| 22380s | practice a lot and we work on playing |
| 22384s | together as a team all the time you know |
| 22386s | our our coaches are always talking to us |
| 22388s | about communication and talking to our |
| 22391s | teammates and you know uh for me like |
| 22394s | the biggest thing when I first started |
| 22396s | was we do we do the three2 split |
| 22398s | sometimes and you know talking to the |
| 22400s | person on the two with me and that was |
| 22403s | you know that was a big thing for me to |
| 22404s | overcome but clearly we we've we've |
| 22407s | gotten a lot better at it so I'm really |
| 22409s | proud of proud of all of |
| 22411s | us andil I mean you specifically on |
| 22414s | Baptist I think have a lot on your |
| 22416s | shoulders right I mean it's just like at |
| 22418s | least when when you guys were playing I |
| 22419s | noticed that the immortality field was |
| 22421s | like living such a long amount of time |
| 22423s | and you were really holding it for the |
| 22425s | perfect timing what does it feel like in |
| 22427s | these tournaments to have like probably |
| 22428s | one of the strongest abilities just |
| 22430s | cooldown wise in the game is there a lot |
| 22432s | of pressure on you as a Baptist player |
| 22433s | to use that at the right time or are you |
| 22435s | feeling relatively cons with it I feel |
| 22438s | pretty consistent with it um honestly |
| 22440s | there's there's not too much pressure |
| 22442s | when it comes to my lamps when I get |
| 22443s | them off I get them off and you know if |
| 22446s | I don't we'll make up for it in another |
| 22447s | ways we're not too worried about it my |
| 22450s | my favorite thing about the lamp though |
| 22451s | is just throwing it on the May wall when |
| 22453s | our tank gets walled off and it's |
| 22455s | perfect it just it covers them and they |
| 22458s | just the other team never thinks to look |
| 22460s | up and shoot it on the May wall so yeah |
| 22464s | it's I mean there there's some pressure |
| 22467s | playing Bap Lucio I mean you have to |
| 22469s | Output a lot of healing and the ammo |
| 22471s | Nerf for Bap really hurt this patch um |
| 22475s | oh yeah but yeah they took away like |
| 22478s | three whole bursts and it's pretty rough |
| 22481s | but we make it |
| 22483s | work love hearing that you guys are able |
| 22485s | to |
| 22489s | working playing on the live patch |
| 22492s | obviously Rising is sort of separate in |
| 22494s | terms of that challenges challenges |
| 22496s | playing on the opr client and playing on |
| 22498s | the previous patch other than running |
| 22501s | into some unfortunate troubles with the |
| 22504s | Baptist Nerf was there sort of anything |
| 22506s | else that came alongside this patch that |
| 22508s | the team was sort of concerned about |
| 22510s | potentially running into or were happy |
| 22512s | that had changed because they thought |
| 22514s | they sort of enabled some more of your |
| 22516s | compositions um I would definitely say |
| 22519s | that we would have preferred to play on |
| 22520s | opr but being on live doesn't change |
| 22523s | anything we're here to play and we're |
| 22524s | here to win so we're going to deal with |
| 22527s | whatever changes we get thrown at |
| 22530s | and we'll we'll make it |
| 22533s | work um the the B ammo Nerf really sucks |
| 22538s | I know may also got an ammo Nerf and |
| 22540s | there was a few Buffs that to other |
| 22543s | characters namely in the tank Department |
| 22545s | that we don't really enjoy but uh you |
| 22548s | got to do what you got to do and I think |
| 22551s | that we're going to come into Grand |
| 22552s | finals and we're going to take it |
| 22554s | home who I absolutely love hearing that |
| 22558s | confidence from you guys I mean it's |
| 22561s | really exciting to see you guys play and |
| 22563s | I think that the fact that a team like |
| 22565s | yours that is putting in that effort |
| 22567s | within scrims does have that coaching |
| 22569s | backing you up definitely brings another |
| 22572s | another level of competition to the |
| 22574s | rising scene where it's going to force a |
| 22576s | lot of your competitors to learn and I |
| 22578s | think that just helps so much with the |
| 22579s | growth overall um so I also want to know |
| 22582s | kind of what does rising mean to you as |
| 22585s | far as calling on Heroes go I want to |
| 22587s | hear from you as a player what having |
| 22589s | this opportunity to compete me you guys |
| 22593s | yeah so I only started playing OverWatch |
| 22595s | a few months ago |
| 22597s | actually um yeah I've been playing |
| 22600s | OverWatch for maybe three and a half |
| 22601s | months I've played you know 20 hours of |
| 22604s | OverWatch one um so this is really the |
| 22607s | first time that I'm getting to get out |
| 22609s | there and compete and it feels great I |
| 22612s | mean first of all it's amazing to have |
| 22614s | such a welcoming space for everybody to |
| 22617s | come compete and to grow as |
| 22619s | players um and I just I think it's a |
| 22621s | wonderful opportunity but for me |
| 22624s | personally it's it's a really big deal |
| 22626s | uh I love I love the fact that we have |
| 22628s | rising and I definitely think that you |
| 22631s | all will see me playing in Challengers |
| 22633s | soon |
| 22634s | enough oh okay well I can't wait to see |
| 22638s | that um we do have to unfortunately R up |
| 22640s | the wrap up the Chipotle Real Talk |
| 22642s | interview though and before we go I'm |
| 22644s | going to ask you one your Chipotle or |
| 22646s | order if you do order Chipotle and then |
| 22649s | two to give any thanks and shout outs |
| 22651s | before we end it off yeah okay um I get |
| 22655s | the chicken burrito with white rice |
| 22657s | black beans squa and the queso sauce |
| 22660s | it's pretty good and then I always get a |
| 22662s | side of chips and queso just because you |
| 22664s | know you gota um as for shout outs you |
| 22667s | know my family and my friends I love all |
| 22670s | of them so much and of course my |
| 22672s | teammates I I wouldn't be here without |
| 22674s | them at all um our coaches and our |
| 22678s | lovely lovely manager uh always finding |
| 22681s | us good scrims and making sure we're |
| 22684s | staying on topic and off |
| 22689s | tilt well thank you so much for taking |
| 22691s | the time to |
| 22693s | have and GG's today good luck on |
| 22696s | tomorrow and we'll hopefully see you |
| 22698s | again soon thank you so |
| 22701s | much |
| 22703s | oh guys but uh the day is is about to |
| 22707s | wrap up so why don't we take a peek over |
| 22709s | towards the bracket just to see how |
| 22710s | today ended up panning out as we lead |
| 22713s | into tomorrow so when we're looking at |
| 22716s | the challengers series I know we were |
| 22718s | just on Rising so we're backing up a |
| 22721s | little bit to what happened earlier |
| 22722s | today uh just a series before this Moxy |
| 22726s | tell me a little bit about your |
| 22728s | expectations as far as like did you |
| 22730s | expect the bracket out to pan out this |
| 22732s | way I did not expect timless laeral and |
| 22736s | y EXL Embers to go to a five map series |
| 22739s | especially with how close some of those |
| 22743s | games really did become it definitely |
| 22745s | looks like t s have been able to get |
| 22747s | over the difficulty of that Genji but |
| 22749s | it'll be interesting to see moving |
| 22751s | forward whether or not nyxl Embers is |
| 22753s | going to change up that composition to |
| 22755s | deal with it too but I'm not going to |
| 22757s | lie I hope when they run into microwave |
| 22760s | that they run it so we get to see the |
| 22762s | mirror match |
| 22763s | up but I what your thoughts there Jan |
| 22765s | were you expecting this because I know |
| 22768s | again that besty was really a big |
| 22770s | surprise between nyxl and Timeless yeah |
| 22773s | I mean I think leading into to the |
| 22775s | tomorrow's games really we just have to |
| 22777s | see what happens with nyxl Embers right |
| 22780s | and how could how they could do versus |
| 22781s | vver Titans blue that's going to be a |
| 22783s | massive game and you know after that one |
| 22786s | potentially if I know I don't want to |
| 22788s | count out necessarily Vancouver Titans |
| 22789s | blue but depending on if nyxl Embers |
| 22792s | wins that game against Michael wave that |
| 22794s | would also be a fun matchup so |
| 22796s | realistically how anything goes tomorrow |
| 22798s | I think it's going to be a good day it's |
| 22800s | going to be a fire day regardless but we |
| 22803s | do have a little bit more left as we |
| 22805s | wrap up this post show for you guys so |
| 22809s | we know that OverWatch 2 games are a |
| 22811s | symphony of chaos but there's always a |
| 22813s | moment of silence before the Beat Drops |
| 22815s | in any bangers let's see what the bee |
| 22817s | quiet play of the day is okay we got |
| 22820s | some Tracer gameplay so things are |
| 22821s | looking good here so far Moxy oh what's |
| 22824s | the pulse 100 it's the sneaky F bomb |
| 22827s | there it is right on the |
| 22830s | Anna it's a slow oh my |
| 22833s | God bun I mean bun is really just one of |
| 22836s | those players they have to watch out for |
| 22837s | right mhm without an absolute doubt she |
| 22841s | has been quite the star throughout the |
| 22843s | entirety of calling all heroes but |
| 22846s | overall we got tomorrow to look forward |
| 22848s | to we've already shown you guys the |
| 22850s | bracket it's going to be an |
| 22851s | action-packed day I think every single |
| 22853s | match is going to absolutely heat up so |
| 22856s | again Dogman Moxy thank you so much for |
| 22859s | joining me on the stream and joining me |
| 22861s | on the desk big shout out also to C and |
| 22863s | tala who are with me earlier today and |
| 22865s | of course a big thank you to you guys at |
| 22867s | home who tune in and help make this all |
| 22869s | possible alongside the players and teams |
| 22871s | who compete so we'll see you guys |
| 22874s | tomorrow but for now good |
