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

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
4329s	you really want to see or go up
4332s	against I mean our next match up
4335s	microwave uh I'm pretty sure they won
4337s	yeah against epari but next match up is
4339s	going to be against Michael wave and we
4342s	love them like we're good friends I'm
4344s	just ready to have a fun match against
4346s	them and then go on and see who we face
4348s	next but microwave definitely we're

4357s	to be a really fun match up for you guys
4359s	I I'm looking forward to seeing that
4361s	match up I want to see you guys take on
4362s	Michael wave because I know all the
4363s	practice that's been going in but it's
4365s	paid off thus far because we get to have
4367s	you here for the Chipotle Real Talk
4368s	interview which means I have the honor
4370s	of asking you what is your Chipotle

4389s	Chipotle order yes government assigned a
4391s	Chipotle order what's my myand assigned

4468s	on so we're going to be swinging over to
4470s	a quick little break before we head into

4475s	seeing New York exceler Embers versus
4478s	Timeless ethereal on the other side of

4660s	[Music]
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
4698s	and don't forget to try and use that
4700s	radiant discount code there for 10% %
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]
11352s	then
11354s	[Music]
11377s	[Music]
11399s	[Applause]
11399s	[Music]
11406s	[Applause]
11411s	[Music]
11418s	[Music]
11440s	[Music]
11444s	[Applause]
11450s	[Music]
11463s	[Music]
11472s	la
11474s	[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
11895s	they you bladed yeah they had to get you
11898s	bladed I need to know what the conss
11899s	were like was it like bun was making the
11901s	call like okay I'm back capping and
11903s	everyone's chaotic in the sense of okay
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
11924s	whole distraction I feel like that makes
11927s	it even better yeah just not saying
11929s	anything about it it okay well tala I'll
11932s	give you the last St for the last
11934s	question before we get sill to sign off
11936s	because I know they have a lot of games
11938s	to go okay well sill I'm just really
11940s	curious if there is anyone in the
11943s	bracket that you are really excited to
11944s	play perhaps a rematch perhaps a first
11947s	time match or just any team that you
11949s	think is really fun to play against uh I
11951s	mean uh our next match against Michael
11953s	wave I'm like excited to play them again
11955s	because we lost in Swiss and I think
11957s	it's time we get our
11959s	revenge very nice very nice okay so last
11962s	question before I give you a chance to
11963s	say your thank yous and shout outs um

12090s	taunting me throughout this entire
12091s	series and uh with that tah it's up to
12095s	you yeah I mean I'm definitely really
12097s	excited to see what we see next I'm
12100s	definitely going to be watching Keeping
12101s	a very close eye on these upper finals
12104s	because like we heard in the interview
12105s	it's going to be a grudge match it's
12107s	going to be a rematch it's going to be
12108s	time for revenge for Timeless aerial and
12110s	I'm wondering if they can get it and of
12113s	course you can't get rid of me you can't
12114s	get rid of CB we're going to be back
12116s	tomorrow for more OverWatch and thank
12119s	you so much to Ash for hosting us today
12122s	and we hope that you have a great
12125s	time I'm sure I definitely will if that
12127s	last match up says anything about what
12129s	we can expect for the remainder of the
12131s	day but thank you guys for being on the

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

17761s	[Music]
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
22885s	night
