904s it started as a promise
907s the promise of something different
909s a promise of Heroes
914s but the path to glory is never promised
918s this is a knock down drag out no holds
921s bad Paul
925s this is the largest mountain to climb
936s but someone a glimmer of hope persists
940s the promise of a new era the stakes get
944s ratcheted up a notch
949s are you not entertained
952s an era that celebrates where we came
955s from
957s at a place we call home
963s Heroes will fall
966s which Heroes will rise the OverWatch
969s League playoffs continue right now
977s welcome one and all to watch point it is
980s day number three of the OverWatch League
983s 2022 playoffs we are live from beautiful
986s Southern California at the Anaheim
989s Convention Center my name is zoik shrin
991s and joining me on this beautiful sunny
993s afternoon our Jonathan reinforced Larson
995s as well as Rosemary necra Kelly friends
999s it's been two days of exciting play
1001s already and uh I gotta admit that the
1004s first two days kind of feel like a very
1007s strange but Pleasant fever dream where
1009s we had so many upsets so many surprises
1012s I don't think I could have put that
1014s better myself I like what happened these
1017s last two days it's kind of a lot and I
1018s feel like when we look at what's ahead
1021s today I don't think any of us expected
1023s we would be here but this is this is
1025s exactly what we wanted to see oh yeah
1027s there's so many teams competing for that
1031s championship title we're seeing upsets
1032s everywhere teams surprising us and teams
1035s disappointing us there's so many
1036s interesting stories tied into today's
1038s elimination matches I can't wait to see
1040s the action go live nebuchane now well if
1043s you're anything like me you need a bit
1045s of a reminder of how things went down
1047s during those first what was it 16 or so
1049s hours of gameplay we've already been
1052s lucky enough to witness so let's take a
1054s look at the upper bracket first and I
1056s assure you I'll just be as surprised
1058s when I see it again yeah here it is
1060s surprise Pikachu face right happening
1062s right now but I mean this is not the
1064s bracket I think most people would have
1066s had well I don't think anybody had this
1067s because there's no perfect brackets left
1069s so everything did yeah everything is
1071s everything is dead are dead everything
1073s is dead
1075s like if I was Doctor Strange I'd be like
1077s oh I didn't even see this Dimension like
1079s I I didn't know this was possible Dallas
1081s fuel against the soul Dynasty they
1083s haven't played each other for over 1100
1085s days I mean this is a Bonkers bracket
1088s like who's counting
1090s now I mean okay after two days of Play
1093s We Now arrived in what I would call a
1096s heartbreak station as we get into the
1098s lower bracket and have to say goodbye
1100s already to some of our playoff teams
1101s let's take a look at the which teams are
1103s finding themselves on the brink of
1105s elimination and I think
1107s I mean dragons in shock what gladiators
1112s also what like I don't this is this is
1115s crazy this is bunkers what a what an
1117s incredible day lays ahead of us I don't
1120s know what's gonna happen today except
1122s that four teams are going home and
1124s they're all gonna be pretty big
1125s surprises just looking at the matchups
1128s we have ahead yeah massively surprising
1130s of course seeing the Gladiators a
1131s two-time stage Champion being down here
1133s Shanghai dragons the most recent summer
1135s Showdown champions in the Eastern region
1136s right so a lot of upsets in the days
1140s previous leading into this one and we're
1142s gonna have to send some of them home
1143s absolutely it's so crazy it's only been
1145s two days I feel like I aged 10 years in
1147s those two days watching those intense
1149s and awesome matches we still have four
1151s more days of matches to bring you before
1154s we are able to Crown the champion of the
1157s 2022 OverWatch League season now it
1159s seems like this hero almost more than
1161s any other year actually uh there is a
1164s possibility that the team no one expects
1166s will end up lifting the trophy so I
1169s think it is now time to declare for The
1172s Underdogs the shadow stallions you know
1174s the midnight mares I think it is time to
1177s pick our dark horses
1182s ah sound bites well it never gets old
1185s yeah it really doesn't now as our guest
1187s necra I would like you to go first uh
1190s what is a team that you feel like is
1192s flying under the radar which could
1194s potentially win it also well I feel like
1196s we have to look at the teams that are
1199s fighting it out in the lower bracket
1200s right now and so I'm looking at the
1203s Toronto defiant this was a team that
1205s surprised a lot of people going into the
1208s summer Showdown they performed really
1210s well On LAN after dropping really early
1213s in the lower bracket to the London's
1215s Spitfire and eventually getting a third
1218s place so I think that was a lot of
1221s surprise to a lot of people and maybe
1222s they'll be able to do the same thing
1224s with another land buff here at the
1226s playoffs and I'm looking at hisu the
1230s sojourn and I'm also looking at how that
1233s works really well in tandem with the
1235s Dives that get set up by Muse so that
1238s they really can go in to make these big
1240s plays but also gotta talk about chorong
1243s because chorong's Lucio has been really
1245s stand out this season and he's actually
1247s on the leaderboards for quite a few
1250s categories that make a good Lucio you
1252s know the hero damage so getting very
1254s aggressive but it's also the healing
1256s done and and in turn what that converts
1258s over to in sound barriers that he
1261s provides to save the team
1263s well this is awkward necra because as
1265s much as I like the Toronto to find uh
1267s they will be playing my choice for the
1270s Dark Horse
1275s yeah that's the team I think can make a
1278s really hot run through the lower bracket
1280s just based on what we've seen from them
1282s in the playoffs thus far yes the last
1284s two stages didn't look so hard but I
1287s really really turned it up and a lot of
1289s that was of course on the back of Shai
1290s being an excellent uh Soldier and I
1293s think he has the upper hand when it
1294s comes to that battle against tisu on
1296s that sojourn also I really feel like
1298s Alpha Yi he had a standout performance
1300s so far in the playoffs him on those
1302s Reaper I really feel like it kind of
1304s flew under the radar for a lot of the
1306s Season obviously playing in the shadows
1308s of a talented players such as shy but
1311s are for you really really carrying his
1313s own weight and Gucci even though if
1316s you're looking as direct stats
1318s comparison with news I think news May
1321s look a little better in a lot of metrics
1323s Gucci stays a lot alive a lot longer in
1326s fact I think she stays alive the longest
1328s as any Winston and you can do as much as
1331s you want if you're not staying alive
1332s then what good are you really
1334s is actually at the very bottom of those
1337s standings I think he's the 14th okay
1339s hold on now I'm just I'm just so crazy
1342s you know it's not great those are
1344s fighting words it's true so we battle it
1347s up I think I think we need to go to
1349s throw hands over by the fountain right
1351s and then we have to decide the winner
1355s yes of course absolutely uh well all of
1358s that a little bit later but first the
1360s reinforcer of course also want to hear
1362s who you got uh to make it all the way to
1365s the top today
1366s my Dark Horse
1370s it's like on demand can I own cue like
1372s Dark Horse
1375s I'm sorry your headphone users I don't
1376s want to bother you too much anymore look
1377s there is one team that is being
1379s massively disrespected this playoff
1382s tournament okay so we need to have a
1383s talk okay we need to have a bit of a
1385s chat all right all right
1388s talk about the Shanghai dragons in these
1391s playoffs all right the reigning
1393s Champions people are just jabbing about
1395s you know oh that was fueled you know I
1397s love the Dallas fuel they're great
1398s proper into San Francisco shock the
1400s Ellie glad here's a two-time stage
1401s Champions just Ellie Gladys they want
1403s stages you know before the summer began
1406s oh I love these theme songs Shanghai
1407s dragons they're the reigning Champions
1409s and this is the perfect conditions for
1411s them to succeed this is a similar meta
1414s to the one they had so much success with
1415s in 2021 and even in 2020 when they were
1418s so dominant as a team we've seen them go
1420s through lower bracket runs before for
1422s example the June jails in 2021 remember
1424s faith on the wrecking ball countering
1426s fearless and the Dallas view on that
1428s Winston composition to make sure that
1430s they won a stage Tyler for their team I
1432s think they have an absolutely stacked
1434s roster not only on fate who's one of the
1436s best winstons of all time in a Winston
1438s meta mind you but also this guy it slip
1441s on the soldier as well if we take a look
1443s at soldier's lip Soldier instead just
1446s take a look at yourself first in hero
1448s damage tied to first in front of those
1449s first in charge of kills first in
1451s overclock kills as sojourn this season
1454s whatever way you slice it lip is the top
1458s three sojourn in the entire league and
1460s if they start figuring out this meta if
1462s they start putting things together and
1463s mind you they've had a day off since
1465s their loss as well so they had time to
1467s reiterate and figure things out if they
1470s start going in the lower bracket I would
1472s not be surprised to see Sanger dragons
1473s make a top three spot and make it into
1476s that Arena back there because they are
1478s lethal they're the reigning Champions
1479s and we need to put some respect on this
1481s team that's just did he hit the brief
1484s when I'm asking for a dark horse and
1486s he's picking the reigning champion no
1488s one's talking about them no one's
1490s talking about them everyone's talking
1491s about Dallas shock Ellie Gladys Soul
1493s Dynasty Luna Spitfire what an amazing
1495s story she used to the ball fusional
1496s Shanghai dragons who's talking about
1499s Shanghai I think a lot more people are
1500s talking about Shanghai than you think
1505s I'm convinced
1507s I know again good salesman yeah I'm sold
1512s yeah let's let's get them them Dragon
1514s Stones
1517s okay well we'll be investing we've still
1519s got some time before the matches start
1520s now if you're wondering what defense's
1522s Dark Horses it do be the Los Angeles
1525s Gladiators
1527s 16.9 of brackets actually still have
1530s them winning it all he pulled a little
1532s bit of a face there don't agree with the
1533s fans
1534s that was a solid pick I just want to
1536s know what Shanghai dragons is like two
1537s percent we'll find out we'll send
1540s someone on that case so uh yeah uh I'm
1545s where do I want to go from there I yeah
1547s I guess we're just gonna find out which
1549s of the team is gonna make it through the
1550s lower bracket as we said four teams will
1553s stay in and four teams will be out but
1557s uh one of those teams we just mentioned
1558s could be making an unexpected win and
1561s get that ultimate price the OverWatch
1563s League Championship but before we get
1566s into that we do have individual prices
1568s which we still want to hand out so many
1570s players are deserving of roll star
1573s awards but only four will get the cover
1576s the title we'll announce the 2022
1578s support roll Stars right after this

1765s Star Wars for the best tank players in
1768s the league and today it is our utmost
1770s pleasure to announce the support
1774s All-Stars for at the oh league in 2022
1777s what a shame the Costa isn't here for
1779s this yeah
1780s he's probably like this close to his
1783s monitor at home
1785s yelling out names of things shouting
1787s names shouting names all the names of
1789s all the support that he thinks
1793s we might be hearing him here in Anaheim
1796s still but uh yeah let's uh let's dive
1798s right into it because our first support
1800s a roll star has excelled uh ever since
1803s they first stepped in the front of the
1805s league he's known for long range of
1808s sleeps and there was really sick
1809s animates it is Dallas fueled Fielder
1817s with the switch from OverWatch 1 to
1820s OverWatch 2 and the removal a lot of the
1823s shields in the game you can heavily feel
1825s the power that a good Flex support
1827s brings to your team and fielder is one
1830s of those playing for the Dallas fuel
1832s he's played a lot of Anna this season
1833s but is also more recently started to
1836s play the kiriko for the team and no
1838s matter what it is and feels like Fielder
1839s is always hitting those shots and always
1841s utilizing the pieces of his kit to
1844s really set up the team for success and I
1847s think in previous years in 2021 of
1848s course feel the worst ground a roll star
1850s as well but a lot of that was because of
1851s his honor and his Moira play so if we
1854s actually take a look at some of his
1855s honor stats for throughout the season
1856s you can see yourself first in healing
1858s done first in buyer grenade kills and
1860s first in defensive assist I mean the
1861s stats speak for themselves Fielder is an
1863s amazing honor but this year in
1865s particular in the 2022 season it's been
1867s what Fielder didn't do in 20 one that's
1871s really made me gain his respect for him
1873s as a player flexing over to the Zenyatta
1875s for example when necessary the Brigitte
1878s at times that helped them win the summer
1880s showdown at the stage title of course
1881s Fielder I think he's grown from previous
1883s years and at the level he's playing at
1885s he's one of the best four supports in
1887s the league definitely a roll star in my
1889s eyes yeah couldn't agree more now our
1891s next role
1894s every role they've been asked to step
1896s into and play capable of the defeating
1898s flankers and Duels and taking the fight
1901s to the enemy from the LA Gladiators it
1903s is shu
1906s foreign
1910s of the best supports we have in the
1912s entire league and this guy does things
1915s differently not only is it about helping
1917s the team getting the healing done and
1919s it's also about getting the Damage Done
1921s one of the most clutch supports we have
1923s in the league and I'm not talking about
1925s cutting out in the regular season I'm
1926s talking about clutching up when
1928s everything is on the line in 2021 she
1931s was an MVP candidate in 2022 she was an
1934s MVP candidate so consecutive years now
1936s with MVP nominees Shu that just speaks
1939s to the level of play he brings to the LA
1941s gladiers in my eyes he is the best
1944s support player in the entirety of the
1945s league he does things differently on the
1947s support role two definitely a roll start
1950s oh I mean the frags have just been
1952s absolutely insane from this player
1954s whether it's the Anna the Baptiste it's
1956s been so fun to see shoes just absolutely
1959s pop off here let's take a look at his
1962s Batiste stats this season and I feel
1964s like just like Fielder's honest stats
1966s speak for themselves shoes Batiste stats
1970s definitely speak for them they don't
1971s even have healing done on a support hero
1973s there's no healing done on the graphic
1975s no don't I don't you don't have to worry
1976s about that that's not what she was about
1978s you don't need to heal your team when
1981s the enemy team is dead yeah that the
1983s best yeah defense is the best offense
1987s not the best advice but it works after
1989s shoe but we're all about that now our
1991s next roll star is a menace in the back
1994s line always alive always annoying which
1997s is the best thing to be as a Lucio
1999s dropping the beat into roll stars is
2001s Chio from the Dallas fuel
2008s incredible to see not one but two
2012s supports here from the Dallas fuel
2014s getting a support roll star and Chio is
2017s ever deserving of this role I mean when
2020s you'd see him on the Lucio it's just a
2023s Non-Stop pressure onto the enemy team
2025s whether it's just him solo killing in
2028s the back line or it is just helping out
2031s enabling the front line to get that
2034s Damage Done such incredible work here
2036s coming in from Chio especially when it
2038s comes to the environmental kills that
2039s this polaire has been able to get in my
2042s eyes Geo is the best Lucio we have in
2044s the entire league and especially because
2045s he's a rookie in the league I think that
2047s just speaks to the potential of Chio
2049s moving into the future as well if we
2051s take a look at chios Lucio stats you can
2053s see first in final blows and first and
2055s offensive assists but he's not only
2057s doing it offensively he's also staying
2059s safe he only dies the third least in the
2061s entire league as well which is a
2063s standout kind of performance right being
2064s able to be aggressive tip but also sits
2066s back but this is not the Lucio Star
2069s Award this is the roll star award so the
2071s fact that chio's been able to come in as
2072s a rookie and play the Lucio to such a
2074s high level but flicks over to the
2076s Zenyatta at times for example when we
2077s have double Flex support metas
2079s um incredible performances from Geo
2081s throughout the entire season he's also a
2083s roll star in my eyes
2091s our fourth and final support roll star
2093s is a beast from the East whether it's a
2096s maze to the face or a volley of
2098s Destruction from the back line it is
2100s from the Shanghai dragons izayaki
2107s when you have to talk about the best
2109s zenyattas in the league isayaki is one
2112s of them you notice the ball is of
2114s Destruction and here you go just racking
2115s up the highlights on your favorite Flex
2118s support hero but also he's been able to
2120s take things differently this year
2121s filling in on the Brigitte in the summer
2123s Showdown led to the summer Showdown
2125s title for the Shanghai dragons in the
2127s Eastern region so an offensive
2129s Powerhouse but also now with added
2131s flexibility if you want to make a top
2133s four support list in the awards league
2135s isayaki is certainly one of them
2137s absolutely has to be on that list now
2140s these are your 2022 OverWatch League
2143s support and roll Stars let's once more
2145s take a look at those talented young men
2149s who are dressing us with some phenomenal
2151s play all season long it's been amazing
2153s to watch all of the support players this
2155s season and the impact that they've had
2157s within OverWatch 2 but shoe Fielder
2160s izayaki and Chio are incredible and
2163s congratulations to them for the roll
2165s Stars absolutely and you can see these
2167s stars in person as well as the voice
2170s actors who bring the heroes of OverWatch

2394s welcome back once again to watch point
2397s the eliminations for the 2022 OverWatch
2399s League playoffs start today we're gonna
2401s have eight teams entering and only four
2403s will live on in the play of a bracket so
2406s this is gonna be exciting what a day
2409s lays ahead of us in our first match of
2411s the day is the Philadelphia Fusion going
2413s up against the LA Gladiators and both of
2415s these teams have been uh perennial
2418s contenders but have never really
2420s achieved the glory that their fans and
2423s frankly the franchises expect for
2425s themselves so uh this time
2428s you know they could they could get it
2430s done but they do have to make it run
2432s through the lower bracket first and
2434s that's not going to be an easy feat now
2436s uh necra is our guest I want you to go
2439s first again who are you looking out for
2441s In This Very matchup well first I think
2443s that you just put very nicely that
2445s Philadelphia Fusion is always second and
2447s never gets it first oh he's the
2449s bridesmaid never the bride but they're
2451s looking good doing some they do they do
2453s look they do look quite good I will
2454s always be a Philly Fusion fan I'm also
2456s from Philly so I kind of feel no buys
2457s whatsoever no bias at all when I talk
2459s about this next point which is about the
2461s Winston versus Winston in this matchup
2463s Philadelphia Fusion did lose their match
2466s earlier this week to the London Spitfire
2469s and off the back of that one it just
2471s looked like it was really tough for
2473s Fusion to find their footing even with
2475s Bello suria at the Hound villasrea has
2477s been a standout rookie performer this
2480s year but unfortunately fell a little
2482s flat when it came to the Winston just
2483s kind of constantly getting bullied by
2485s backbones Reaper and then in you know
2488s hand fourth kind of scared of it and
2490s played scared of it so I hope to see a
2493s little bit more aggression coming out
2494s from bellatoria's Winston today but how
2496s is that going to match up against
2498s reiners Winston on the Los Angeles
2500s Gladiators because despite the loss
2504s which was also against London's Spitfire
2506s funny how that works out but despite the
2508s loss Reiner's stats on Winston still
2511s looked quite good just based on the eye
2513s test it didn't really pass that one
2516s yeah I mean it's so weird when you see a
2519s team lose and yet the stats look still
2521s good where you're like you didn't need
2523s to lose like you could have could have
2525s won it too myself every ranking no but I
2529s got it
2530s great yeah okay cool damage
2533s I got a cart look at me no no they see
2536s that they've removed the metal system
2537s you don't know anymore exactly you don't
2539s know unless you're taking too much time
2541s to figure it out that that will be him
2543s actually he's my favorite dude
2546s reinforced though I mean you had a lot
2549s of questions about La uh Gladiators
2551s yesterday
2552s um did you find some answers or not
2556s we'll find out in our next segment which
2559s is leveling up presented by
2560s Butterfingers so was anything answered
2563s or do you have more questions now I I
2565s have so many questions that is worth
2568s two-time stage Champions what are we
2570s doing here what what are we doing
2571s swapping around players on different
2573s Heroes to compensate for optimal
2575s conditions no no other team in the
2578s playoffs is actually swapping around
2579s their sojourn and the reaper Tracer
2581s player and so the LA gladiers I'm
2585s number for it yesterday in their match
2586s against the London Spitfire we saw happy
2588s play some of the soldier and later on in
2589s the series but it was kevster who
2591s started it off on that hero after some
2593s Tracer play himself happy as you can see
2595s he leads in final blows and charge shot
2598s kills per 10 minutes against kepster his
2600s partner in prime of course which begs
2602s the question who is going to play
2604s primarily the sojourn today in my
2607s opinion I want to see kevster on that
2610s Reaper because it lets him play the
2611s Tracer where as possible and you don't
2613s have to put additional pressure on happy
2614s to place around and play different
2616s Heroes happy he is the superior Soldier
2618s when it comes to the stats and I tend to
2619s agree with the stats so put him on that
2622s hero let him just play this hero all it
2624s needs to do visualizing the game going
2626s into the game all he needs to think
2627s about is how he should perform a soldier
2629s he doesn't need to prepare for his
2630s Reaper play he doesn't need to prepare
2632s for a soldier play as well just keep him
2634s on the sojourn hero I think it's the
2635s best way for the yellow glass to
2636s approach this series and kevster well
2639s maybe he can play the Tracer at some
2641s point if he doesn't feel comfortable
2643s playing the reaper for whatever reason
2644s on some points that's fine but recognize
2647s that happy is the superior sojourn in my
2649s eyes and I don't want to see them flicks
2651s around and swap around their preferred
2653s children player in this match if the LA
2654s players want to go deep in this
2656s tournament I think they need to set
2657s something in stone just commit to it you
2660s just need to commit and if it doesn't
2661s work out so be it alright but at least
2663s commit to something and don't like
2664s flip-flop when it comes to the roster to
2666s roster hero swaps I mean historically
2668s those kind of hero stops have not worked
2671s out in any of the seasons for any of the
2673s teams as soon as you start having those
2675s crucial roles switching players in and
2677s out on those roles not usually a formula
2679s for success or very rarely at least now
2682s uh one last thing that I want to look at
2684s is of course the new hero kiriko it's
2687s always interesting when a new hero comes
2688s out to really see who can you know adapt
2690s who can pick it up on on such a short
2692s notice as well and and play it to a high
2694s level now if we're looking at Gladiators
2696s kiriko player shoe I mean at their side
2699s he was more on the offensive side he is
2701s a very aggressive player he is known to
2703s get those headshots to go for those
2705s kills that can be punished too and I
2708s mean he is a wizard but he has to go up
2710s against an actual aim God what a clever
2714s pun however if we're looking at the
2716s numbers here Shu did look better uh in
2719s the playoffs on his kiriko that said
2721s though take these numbers with a grain
2723s of salt because quite frankly Gladiators
2726s did they they lost better if that makes
2730s sense I think Philly they had a more
2731s competitive series against London than
2734s what Billy did so yeah it's it's natural
2737s that if the last team fights you win the
2740s worse your stats look like so uh yeah
2743s Gladiators that's obviously looking a
2744s little bit better in direct comparison
2745s right now in the playoffs but that
2747s doesn't mean that the opposition can't
2749s get it done but uh yeah it is now a time
2753s to get some last thoughts in and I want
2756s to talk about the maps uh the first map
2758s in the series is going to be oh pieces
2759s and you have a little tid back for us
2761s yeah I think that's an interesting map
2762s Peak from Alexander's of course the
2764s higher seed they picked them up here so
2765s they're like letters they decided to go
2767s to Oasis statistically it's their second
2769s worst control map throughout the season
2770s but in this particular meta maybe some
2774s hidden picks are in order when it comes
2775s to the heroes of course on City Center
2777s you can see cavister flicks over to that
2779s Tracer maybe a preference of his also in
2782s the past we have seen Reiner play
2784s roadhog on City Center and Road dog is
2787s of course a pick that's come out from
2788s the Houston outlets for example maybe as
2790s well on University we'll see Reiner's
2792s Flex over to that doomfist Oasis an
2794s interesting map Choice from the LA
2796s gliders that perhaps allows some of that
2798s flexibility if you don't want to play
2800s the Winston meta we did did see Los
2802s Angeles Gladiators as one of the only
2804s teams to play like four or five
2806s different compositions and in this meta
2808s I think that's really unique because a
2810s lot of it is just around the Winston the
2812s kiriko the Lucio the very standard set
2815s pieces like we saw from junker Queen so
2818s I kind of like that and I think Oasis
2820s really does play to a strength like that
2821s yeah and I I do love that point because
2823s quite frankly that can throw the
2825s opposition for a bit of a loop because
2827s you're not quite sure what to expect
2828s you're not practicing against those
2830s wonky compositions so that could work in
2832s their favorite let's take a look at our
2835s press for this match just so we know how
2837s we can all get it wrong again
2838s potentially alright everyone goes with
2841s Gladiators I don't think that's a huge
2842s surprise they are they have to be the
2844s favorite heading into this matchup but
2846s that said I said the same thing about
2847s the Gladiators in the match they lost
2849s yesterday so what do I know really well
2851s I mean I prayed at London so so there
2854s was that exactly but we have we have
2857s some great matches coming our way four
2859s teams will unfortunately be going home
2861s four teams move one step closer to Glory
2864s the orange League 2022 playoff start
2866s right now
2875s the promise of something different
2877s a promise of Heroes
2882s but the path to glory is never promised
2889s what devastating loss Heartbreak City
2893s this is the largest mountain to climb
2899s foreign
2904s a glimmer of hope persists
2908s the promise of a new era this the stakes
2911s get ratcheted up a notch oh no way to
2916s deal with that that's what you want to
2917s say are you not entertained
2921s an error that celebrates where we came
2923s from
2926s at a place we call Hope
2931s which Heroes will fall
2933s which Heroes will rise
2936s the OverWatch League playoffs continue
2939s right now
2949s it may be for you welcome to another day
2953s of the OverWatch League playoffs as
2956s right now it is time to send some teams
2959s home I am a killios here alongside Avril
2963s and we will be the Arbiters of Doom as
2965s we look to send a couple squads packing
2967s and a couple teams stay alive in the
2970s tournament yeah it'll be us and Ryan it
2972s will be the three Albert as a doom you
2973s know Ryan played a little bit of Doom as
2975s well uh other than that I don't know
2976s that anyone else is going to get into
2977s the bit of a doom uh Heroes rise I like
2979s that because that's you know that's
2980s symbolizing all the early morning rises
2982s here us included getting ready to head
2984s into day three of layoffs here I mean we
2987s have one of the craziest lower brackets
2989s that I've ever seen you know the disc
2990s went over it already but we are going to
2992s get some heartbreak today 100 guaranteed
2995s um there are some potential fan
2997s favorites the fact they just aren't
2998s their favorites that will be eliminated
2999s no matter which way you slice it uh
3002s somebody's Journey does end today
3005s yeah I mean whenever you get to this
3006s stage of a playoffs it's always you know
3009s the point where people no matter what
3010s are going to be sad there's going to be
3011s people who are losing their favorite
3012s team there's going to be people who are
3013s losing maybe their second favorite team
3014s but given the way that things have
3016s shaken out right now oh boy there's a
3019s lot of fan favorites that are on the
3020s chopping block Philly Fusion La
3022s Gladiators notwithstanding so these are
3024s going to be the first two teams squaring
3026s off loser is out winner stays alive at
3029s least for a little bit longer and then
3030s of course our second series as well is
3032s another huge one with the Shanghai
3034s dragons and the shock going up against
3036s each other in another elimination match
3038s so this is going to be a day to shed
3041s some tears a terrible day for rain but
3043s it's Gotta happen and I'm happy to be
3046s here for it yeah absolutely and um you
3049s know it does create a very exciting law
3050s bracket has moved forward though because
3052s there's some great teams down here and I
3054s just think it speaks to the strength of
3056s this year's teams across the board both
3057s regions where it's like you know even in
3059s the lower bracket around one we've got
3060s to eliminate some teams it feels like I
3062s was like wow it's too early to let go of
3064s something seems it's too early to drop
3066s teams off where some of the teams are
3068s going to be going home are teams that
3070s would have uh you would have preferred
3072s to stay longer and in previous seasons
3073s have stayed longer in fact we've got
3075s returning Champions here three of our
3077s last four Champions here in the lower
3079s break I want to say three I mean three
3081s out of the Four Seasons there's only two
3082s champions in that the other Champion
3084s London spitfly from That season one
3085s roster uh that is still there
3087s franchise-wise they're selling up a
3089s break still enjoying that one uh in the
3091s lower breaker though you guys you said
3093s Philadelphia versus Gladiators I mean
3094s the last time these two teams even
3096s played was actually in the playoffs for
3097s last year with Gladius dropping fully
3099s down to lower bracket
3101s well speaking of Philly let's go ahead
3103s and have them walk out on this stage
3105s maybe for the last time here in the 2022
3108s season unless they can fight their way
3110s through this series and be victorious
3113s everything to play for for both of these
3116s squads the expectations especially for
3118s these first four teams are going to be
3120s seen but pretty much everybody in the
3121s playoffs the expectations is for these
3123s teams to go so much further I think
3125s Fusion made me come in here with a chip
3128s on their shoulder given that they have
3129s always kind of been the bridesmaid never
3131s the bride is so you're saying on the
3132s desk uh but that first initial showing
3136s from them not what we're used to seeing
3138s but this is a bit more in line with what
3140s we are used to seeing zest is going to
3143s be playing despite the injury he will be
3145s taking to the stage over Carpe once
3147s again I'm gonna rip the cost off the um
3149s it's time to Don the reap up maybe even
3151s a little bit of the other Heroes as well
3153s depending on map choices depending on
3155s how Philly Fusion is feeling today the
3156s possibility of a trace so we know Kevin
3158s said played that yesterday uh the
3159s possibility of even jumping on some
3161s other Heroes shown such as you know the
3163s potential of an echo that I've heard a
3165s rumored around there Genji is possible
3167s as well especially versus a sigma
3168s everything is on the table here and for
3170s the Philadelphia Fusion they're playing
3173s the standard starting lineup that
3175s they've mostly succeeded with this yet
3177s um and for the fusion as well I mean
3179s look it this is so far potentially like
3183s you said maybe them going home and this
3185s by the way was a team of the mid-season
3186s Madness that went the furthest of all
3188s the Eastern teams and now they could be
3190s the first Eastern team gone
3193s certainly is a possibility unless they
3195s can get through their opponents which
3197s will go ahead and look to the other side
3198s of the stage as they go ahead and walk
3200s out and also take their seats as the LA
3202s Gladiators team that has won multiple
3205s tournaments here throughout the 2022
3207s season incredibly high expectations on
3210s the squad a lot of people expecting them
3212s to be able to take the entire playoffs
3214s but now find themselves very much at
3217s risk but yeah the big thing is Ken on
3220s both of these teams frankly bounce back
3222s from their initial performances because
3224s neither team looked themselves they were
3226s very much out of sorts very much out of
3229s sync and in either of them can find
3231s their group can get back to the standard
3233s a play that we're used to seeing from
3235s them then this could be an absolute
3237s Banger of a series and I'm one of those
3238s guys right you said you know people
3239s people thinking that's exactly gladiates
3242s with this roster in this matter should
3243s be able to make it very far in the
3244s playoffs maybe even make it all the way
3246s I said that yesterday this is the kind
3248s of roster we're based on the success
3249s this year the two titles that they've
3251s had slowed down a bit the summer showed
3252s up but then as 6-0 perfect record in the
3254s countdown cup very high seat coming into
3257s the playoffs and a Winston medal which
3259s should really benefit a player like Ryan
3260s it whereas otherwise you know if we
3262s weren't on this current Winston patch
3264s and we won the previous patch before Zoe
3265s got nerved this might be a difficult
3267s player for the LA Gladius where you know
3268s everyone would have to be on the off
3269s tanks instead I'm sure his right his
3271s desire is fine but he'd prefer to play
3273s the main tank Heroes like a Winston like
3275s a doom doom not quite viable Winston is
3277s that right now I'm still curious as to
3279s how they're going to navigate this sort
3281s of DPS line to keep certain happy
3283s because yesterday it was a little bit
3284s over the show we had both players
3286s playing both the surgeon and the reaper
3287s at various times kefister played some of
3289s the other Heroes as well include the
3290s Tracer to some mixed results Great pulse
3293s bombs something neutral and Tracer
3295s wasn't fantastic not necessarily his
3296s fault just not a great place for Tracer
3298s to be in the meadow currently
3300s um but I think you kind of hit the nail
3302s on the head though both teams had some
3304s very disappointing performances so far
3306s and it wouldn't be out of the question
3307s for Philly to maybe get this upset
3309s whenever the Gladiators either because
3310s yesterday's performance from Gladiators
3312s versus London left a lot to be desired
3315s I think this is really about who finds
3317s their groove the fastest who can play to
3321s their top potential as soon as in this
3323s series they should be able to be the
3324s team that you know takes the lead and
3326s maybe even just takes the whole set both
3328s teams come out here firing on all
3329s cylinders that I'm just hoping for a
3331s back and forth brawl between these two
3333s squads because we were treated to an
3334s absolutely excellent five mapper just
3337s yesterday I'd love to see more of that
3339s here especially now that elimination is
3341s on the line the stakes are the highest
3344s that they've been so far here in the
3346s playoffs Oasis is our starting
3348s Battleground though as we get ready to
3350s go into control from there on out the
3353s loser will select as the higher seat
3354s this of course is the Gladiators map
3357s pick we'll see if they can get it done
3359s we'll also see yep who the hell is going
3361s to be playing the soldier that would be
3363s an interesting question to answer and it
3366s looks like capster so far as ultimate
3367s who knows at the end of the day I don't
3368s expect happy to actually play the Genji
3370s he'll most likely to come on the reaper
3371s last many of these teams decisive 3-1
3374s victory for Gladius that was the 2021
3375s Plus in the upper bracket now they find
3377s themselves the lower break with someone
3378s having to go home
3381s you said it comes down to the teams that
3383s improves the most well Philly Fusion at
3385s least have had the extra day to look
3387s over the games fix their problems for
3389s the Gladiators it is an overnight
3391s turnaround can they do it under 24 hours
3396s it looks like they're yeah
3399s he's there on the sojourn yeah I think
3401s that's what you want ideally you want
3403s half of the social we look to the Happy
3404s versus Captain social stats happily
3406s generally speaking even on the eye test
3408s way better close opening first Bloods
3409s and we get one straight away from that
3411s point
3413s Rico says thinking down nice headshot
3415s there from happy right off The High
3416s Ground drops down now onto the point
3418s properly
3420s this looks a Sprayway build up for
3421s another rail the spot ain't got coming
3423s off that street side and flanks sending
3425s out some of those good eyes trying to
3426s find a straight pick won't be able to
3427s get one yet but because we've been a
3429s decent bit of damage and for now we'll
3430s be keeping ahead of shoe or is that Rush
3433s charge
3447s quite a bit of damage but doesn't manage
3449s to stay alive we've got as well managing
3452s down flying an elimination next down
3455s happy that could be the opening here
3456s from Fusion to be able to rest control
3457s away from the Gladiators still have to
3459s get rid of a little bit of cancer here
3461s yeah we'll get backing out right now
3462s glad he is around the back page they're
3463s losing members they're losing space as
3465s well and I'm not talking about the play
3467s I'm talking about the physical space of
3468s the map itself it's gonna be a quick
3469s turnaround got the Philly Fusion here
3471s should be able to get under 40 moves
3474s excited
3476s somebody we haven't seen in a very long
3477s time happy gonna be picked off again
3479s right as he respawns good for Chase here
3481s for the fusion get that extra stagger
3482s they're getting control 40 though
3484s established for the Gladiators with alts
3486s on the way funny Astro already has a
3487s sound barrier shoe not too far off from
3489s the rush so they have some tools to
3491s utilize but she's gonna be taken down
3494s ain't gone live it up to the name finds
3496s the head shot gets the kill overclock
3497s does get popped here by mf3 if they look
3499s for a little bit more and they'll get
3500s captured a boon makes it slightly worse
3503s otherwise I think it probably would have
3505s been wasted like if he's got the one
3507s kill there probably ends up Bingo he'll
3509s give him the sensor okay well if you
3510s have aim God get an opening First Blood
3511s Gladius obviously back on out campus
3513s should get super hang on
3516s be there it's basically looking to spawn
3517s Camp right now military over seven for a
3519s moment now that's gonna Force out the
3520s Beats on either side the rushes as well
3522s being used by aim gotta shoot Primal
3524s Rage comes in from bellatria juggling
3526s Reiner around for a little bit there but
3527s now it's not a threat of getting taken
3529s down now the overclock from Happy comes
3531s in and with no more defensive move kit
3533s and it's a fusion holding back around
3534s the corner and this briefly now they go
3536s ahead they re-aggress That's goes in
3538s death Blossom comes down 20 after we're
3539s gonna be taken out that's gonna be this
3540s importance out of the fight zest follows
3542s up onto onto Reiner for three kills in
3545s the fight and fusion pilot this spawn
3547s Camp so perfectly now that they're
3549s completely out of tools out of ultimate
3550s scene alive it will play back a bit more
3553s but man what a hold from them they now
3555s have very much have the lead and that's
3557s exactly the kind of Turn and Burn
3558s gameplay that the LA Gladius lost to
3560s versus the London Spitfire yesterday
3561s right the civility for the opposing team
3563s for the fusion here just to pull push in
3566s use ultimates back on out and then turn
3568s the fight over zes using a dead boss and
3570s ain't gone once again getting a burst
3571s one
3572s man has his number ain't got clearly not
3575s happy that he was not on the list for a
3577s roll star is looking to steal it away
3579s from shoe if possible unfortunately his
3581s system doesn't work like that ain't God
3582s but I like what you put down and look at
3584s the lap right now that he has over
3586s shooting his shoe has been so much time
3587s respawning alts online shoes at 46
3590s percent
3591s and we nearly have the full cap yet
3593s Fusion looking for final fight Ellie
3594s Gladius still have owned that same death
3596s Blossom from Capstone to work through
3598s and they got a necklace work Ingot has
3600s another Rush
3606s ends up getting taken down the focus
3609s fire which is too damn good happy drags
3611s it back no message equalize all those
3613s Reapers finding one but now one funny
3615s answer down so much more pressure here
3617s on the shoe who desperately needs to get
3619s that Rush online nine percent left to go
3621s but happy is dead one of the biggest
3623s people who would have profited from that
3625s ultimate and now he's not even gonna get
3627s the opportunity to use it so one kitsude
3629s rush I believe built up by shoe in this
3631s entire round of control Fusion taking
3633s 100 to 40 percent cool and it's just an
3635s extra kills the Damage Done by aim God
3638s allowing them to get a final katuna Rush
3640s where you know what what shoes all
3642s charge it was like so roughly around the
3644s 50 60 Mark I mean that's really rough
3646s for the LA Gladius they were low on alt
3648s economy as well Kev sir trying to get
3650s that death blossom into action and just
3652s isn't gonna be enough he can shut down
3654s nearly instantaneously take a look at
3655s some angle shots again
3657s firing those two nights through
3659s Insurance a Hawking dead right into one
3661s effect he might have tped into one in
3663s the case it made me unlucky but aim God
3665s will take that kill any day of the week
3667s that puts Gladiators seriously behind
3669s wow that it does now move over
3673s University as Fusion look to close this
3676s out not gonna be seeing any adjustments
3678s on either side Gladiator on the reaper
3681s happy all that Soldier so how many picks
3683s he was able to get that first run is low
3685s oh my God this time the answer is no
3687s it's Reiner who is the first to fall mm3
3689s finds that first Blood now you should
3691s very well unpoise to get the initial
3693s locked up on this point especially with
3695s hamster getting taken out as well
3697s to do that he was pretty much Dental
3698s rights pushed forward trying to get as
3700s much charge towards that that's lost as
3702s possible but it is going to be the
3703s fusion Standing Tall at the end of the
3704s fight and this is such a good looking
3706s Philadelphia Fusion compared to what we
3707s saw in day one that looked a little bit
3709s lost on day one now they're getting
3710s extra kills some staggers here Kips
3712s looks like he's in trouble he'll get
3713s cleaned up as well and then like
3714s gladiers they can't stop bleeding right
3716s now Philadelphia Fusion they look
3718s reinvigorated
3720s that they certainly do
3722s um
3723s oh well there's some caveats I think
3725s we'll talk about at the end of this one
3727s because I think some people are gonna be
3728s pointing fingers that I don't want
3729s pointed but we'll focus in on the
3731s gameplay for now with the players that
3733s are in the lobby
3758s but as I say that happy strikes from
3761s behind the rail shot goes to the back of
3763s the skull finds the elimination yet
3766s again looks like Gladiators all gonna be
3767s able to trade up and pick some falling
3769s just a percent away from the sound
3771s barrier Platts should be able to get
3772s this flip Fusion however staying forward
3774s I thought maybe they'd be able to keep
3776s this contested before they did not
3779s happy keeping the team within contention
3782s to recover this map because the balance
3784s for your dead meant everything aim God
3786s had a 30 lead over shoe I believe and
3788s clients actually win that without
3789s popping a single they survived against
3791s the four man Rush no balestria though I
3793s think that's one hero that you really
3794s need you need that wins in there the
3796s extra bubbles you can get during the
3797s katuna rush as well where would you
3799s consider the the cooldown reductions
3801s that's why Winston is so good with this
3803s kariko
3804s a super awkward situation for the
3806s Philadelphia Fusion they could have
3807s snowballed that so effectively but
3808s balustria going down yeah that is a
3810s Difference Maker for short
3812s now okay okay
3815s look for some targets into the
3817s backlundors
3820s pop gets ripped to sudden there getting
3823s on top of him just with those shotguns
3825s absolutely annihilates the Winston
3827s they're looking for something to look at
3828s the force maybe some extra ultimate is
3830s just the Rush from the Gladiators to be
3832s able to win the fight they maintain
3833s control now look to take the lead unless
3835s you have to think of fusion just aren't
3837s threatening enough in these fights where
3838s they're losing to actually Force glass
3839s to over commit you want a one for two
3841s trade here now it's just gonna be a one
3843s for one trade balustria through the
3844s Primal there I think a situation where
3846s maybe zest will fix it could have gone
3847s for a play as what would a force players
3848s do more happy with the first one nice
3850s shot yeah the pop comes through get the
3853s second kill looks a little bit more and
3854s fix it open the sound barrier to this
3856s fight despite the early loss
3858s Clean Up Man 10 News
3861s yeah fix the sound barrier not even
3863s enough to save them and it's another
3865s one-on-one fight with the LA Gladius
3867s this is looking much better for glads
3868s now the road to recovery despite having
3870s a very tough start yeah I'm not just
3873s talking about this map but we have to
3874s look at Downtown City Center as well
3876s rather and for the fully double Fusion
3878s at least I get another shot at this
3879s katsune Rush he's got a hands within him
3883s okay some white fruit slightly awkward
3885s trajectory though that doesn't really
3887s reach fire enough
3889s everybody just backs away now the sound
3891s bigger does come in from funny Astro
3892s finds three Reiner still under Fire
3894s happy as well getting chipped away just
3896s manage to get away say alive the poop
3899s comes in divorcing campster back OT is
3901s forced out overclock there from mn3
3903s managing to find one gets happy as well
3905s to put some now the damage deal is down
3907s to the side of the Gladiators Reiner
3908s tries to turn the tide to the fight Pops
3909s that Primal finds it got juggles him
3911s around gets that elimination but Reiner
3913s now needs to exit just way too low on
3915s each Pace the fusion will be able to
3917s occupy the point long enough to get this
3918s slip back into their favor but they need
3920s to take it all the way to 100 if they
3921s want this map to end now because what a
3923s good way to shut down the glass alt
3924s usage there as well because alts up
3926s until this point we're getting very
3927s efficient flight wins but now it's the
3930s three-man off-right happy Kips to go
3932s down but still talking let's get spent
3933s without like that is trying to recover
3934s that situation not gonna work out this
3937s is probably going to go 99 both sides
3938s for the double Fusion to slow the game
3939s down wait for the next ultimate neither
3941s team company has one oh three out of
3943s position so far forward okay the system
3946s comes in the bubble is there as well to
3947s keep protected honestly
3949s could have been dead to right in that
3951s position say picks up falling love as
3954s well needs to stay alive that sound
3955s barriers seven percent away set getting
3957s taken lower and lower happy cleave down
3959s the final
3960s find that elimination Astro dead before
3963s he can get the sound barrier and now
3965s somebody needs to touch but Ryder is
3967s being zoned all the way back off of the
3969s point Fusion forced them they ship them
3972s away from the control point and then
3974s they take all the way up to a hundred
3976s percent beautifully piloted what a
3978s turnaround from this squad Fusion take
3981s the first map of Oasis yeah I mean look
3983s L.A Gladiators with the rough start we
3986s have City Center that did not go their
3987s way at all that was very one-sided for
3989s Fusion quite a bit more competitive
3991s after we got to the university but still
3993s it was like 50 go to the fusion with a
3995s multi-frag staggered kills as well a
3997s very quick katune Rush builder for aim
3999s God but it's a ballast real death that
4000s kind of costs him a little bit fusion
4002s though with that lead they still end up
4003s recovering they eventually get a really
4005s good fight Alex with three members alive
4007s a couple ultimates being used there they
4009s end up falling we go into the neutral
4011s balustry has the only ultimate and that
4013s Primal seals the deal for the Philly
4015s Fusion they lock up map number one Ellie
4017s cloudy is slow 16 total final blows
4020s there nine of them from Happy Happy was
4022s the guy keeping them alive that map so
4023s far
4026s well what a start here for the Philly
4028s Fusion looking very much reinvigorated
4030s Gladiators competitive at some points
4033s there but
4034s Fusion are able to just kind of play
4036s them like a fiddle at the end to both of
4038s those rounds on Oasis I know Fusion have
4040s that nice little one map lead start
4043s Gladiators up will have their map
4045s selection as we get ready to go into
4046s hybrid we'll have to see where they want
4048s to take us whether or not they can
4050s continue to clean up the play become
4052s even more competitive to tie up this
4054s series otherwise they're going to be
4055s staring down the barrel of a match
4057s pointed Philly Fusion so don't go
4059s anywhere guys the action continues we'll
4061s see what the map pick is going to be
4062s when we come back from the break
4066s the OverWatch league is brought to you
4069s by Upper Deck the official Trading Card
4071s of the OverWatch League and by TeamSpeak
4074s the official voice supplier of the

4315s spark had the numbers but balestry has
4318s the space
4321s shot through aim God he's looking for
4323s the elimination he goes on the offensive
4325s but he's got shuts him down
4328s everybody really loves something about
4331s itself okay
4336s and welcome back Philly Fusion able to
4338s take the first map the control map pick
4341s for the Gladiators as they come into the
4343s series is the higher seed they elected
4344s to take us to Oasis and fusion play it
4347s to a t a 2-0 victory from them and
4350s that's with zest starting back in the
4352s lineup and as you can see the injury
4353s still very much present for him that
4356s being said though we did get
4357s confirmation from Ross in the GM of the
4359s Philadelphia Fusion that zest is
4360s medically cleared to play and compete he
4363s has actually been cleared for a whole
4364s week but they wanted to give him the
4366s first match the Opening match and date
4368s one off I'll have a little bit more time
4369s to recover see if copper can get it done
4371s and uh well look if Fusion only have one
4374s more game if they don't have one more
4375s game they can actually win it here it's
4377s this time to come back into the roster
4379s he is an MVP candidate I think you
4381s started to prove why assault had some
4382s reasonable impact in that match the play
4384s that I was most impressed by that I was
4386s most surprised by it's actually aim God
4388s because I think they had been so bad
4390s criticism of ainggold in his kariko play
4393s in that Opening match as well we looked
4394s at Fusion on day one but today is a
4397s different story he really is living up
4399s to the name of his namesake aim God
4402s right he's hitting some crazy shots
4405s that it was an immense amount of impact
4406s pound and you can see I mean just
4408s continuously lapping shoe as we went
4411s through especially there on on City
4413s Center he was dominant constantly
4415s picking shoe off in particular in that
4417s kitty Kobe kiriko heads up so it was
4420s wonderfully done there by aim God we'll
4422s have to just keep our sights trained on
4423s him to see whether or not he's going to
4424s be able to carry on with his performance
4427s and just keep you know pouting through
4430s the series and trying to get Fusion as a
4432s win it's a great start for them but
4433s you're not out of the woods yet he's uh
4435s but AKA buff God check him on an
4437s Instagram you'll thank me later but uh
4438s look in terms of buffed up we're talking
4440s about the fact that he does pretty much
4442s equal damage to Shu 3800 to shoot 3 900
4445s but he's got about 3 000 more hearing
4448s than shoe in that previous map so not
4450s only is he doing the same damage as his
4452s counterpart at the other side he's got
4453s so much more here that's why his katuni
4455s rushes being built that much quicker
4457s that on top of the fact that he died a
4458s lot less than two as well but the map
4460s Choice has come through Seth it is going
4461s to be King's Road chosen by the LA
4463s gladiators
4464s and uh well the alley Gladiators as well
4467s just kind of double checking a couple of
4469s details here now they didn't play that
4471s yesterday they played I can ball the
4473s yesterday which was chosen by London so
4474s if they get to finally go towards their
4475s hybrid choice that they would preferred
4477s to go to
4480s all right we'll see if King's Row can be
4482s the Difference Maker for them to be able
4483s to put a map on the board and tying
4485s things up with the fusion and gonna be
4487s able to persevere obviously I you know
4489s everybody is so very familiar with this
4492s map one of the oldest ones that we have
4494s in the game and it's kind of always been
4496s a bit of a 50 50 as far as that
4498s attacking depending win percentage here
4500s I'm not sure what the updated stats are
4502s these days but it always still feels
4505s pretty damn neutral so it's all going to
4508s come down to execution like that
4510s bellatoria is hovering the ball as well
4512s we're not obviously going to get the
4513s wrecking ball today but that is probably
4514s his signature hero the Flawless rear to
4516s be balling
4517s for the Philadelphia Fusion don't expect
4520s anything in terms of uh I don't think
4523s you would want it though because you you
4525s know you'd like to see Fusion play to
4527s their best in terms of uh what the
4529s matter is and The Meta does dictate you
4531s know Winston surgeon Reaper et cetera
4533s you know the rest of the heroes already
4534s what Ellie gladiers are playing and
4536s we're going to confirm once all that
4537s happy will be starting on the sojin Kev
4538s start on the reaper have to regenerate
4540s that I think this is probably the right
4541s call to make happy just has so much
4543s higher value on those opening picks as a
4545s reminder nine out of the 16 total final
4547s blows that the LA Gladius got on that
4550s last map of oasis
4552s I like this M3 actually overstaying a
4554s bit with the Widowmaker
4556s you always expected to go away in those
4558s first you know three four seconds hey
4561s says okay I'll give it five six see if I
4563s can get a pick he does not
4565s and now battle can commence as Fusion
4568s start making their way over towards the
4569s points you play here on the low ground
4570s spots game got up top there for people
4572s the moment the heels coming through but
4573s it's not nearly enough Rider again first
4576s to fall much like we saw in University
4578s Fusion out for the major pick now turn
4580s the size up at the point it's gonna turn
4582s around though but mn3 instantly frags
4583s out against the trade so every single
4585s time to Ali Gladys think about maybe
4586s getting one bad Fusion keep that
4588s Advantage alive they saw the plus one
4589s and glad you saw if they want a retake
4591s it gets rubbed because you want all five
4593s alive finding Asher's still coming back
4594s in here's a loser though so there's a
4596s good opportunity that glads can touch
4597s final second here Make It Count
4601s okay zest going for the drop down play
4604s much like we saw from Striker just
4606s yesterday but this time they don't have
4607s the death Blossom and it seems like it
4608s doesn't matter because they still
4610s segregate two parts of the team Reiner
4612s out in the front the rest shoved back
4614s through the archway and that is more
4615s than enough to just go ahead and melt
4617s down the enemy wins and so Reiner gives
4619s his life for nothing the cap is there
4620s and it's five plus minutes in the time
4622s paying for the fusion as they start the
4623s street space and it's such a shame as
4625s all because she actually has a Kitsune
4626s rush so if they survive long he pops
4629s down the rush there's no response from
4630s Fusion I could see Gladius getting that
4632s successful retake the issue there is
4634s it's not really that Rhino goes and he
4636s has to touch somebody's gonna touch it's
4637s got to be a tank player Fusion cut him
4639s off they have a 4-1 split with the rest
4642s of the Gladiators are still stuck in the
4643s archway Ryan is the only one touching he
4645s can't get any help and the fusion just
4646s clean him up then get the rest of the
4648s Gladiators now they push into the
4649s archway and now they have to be able to
4652s get this hole right here they're going
4653s to wrench leads the charge shoot
4655s squirting them forward Fusion just back
4658s away they're more than happy to go ahead
4659s and wait this one out and now they can
4661s just use their own it's in a rush to buy
4662s even more space
4664s if they need it there it is they've
4666s gotten popping it falls low heels start
4668s coming through they keep alive Pips are
4670s going to be taking down him and three
4671s finds another headshot
4673s space is fun
4674s funny Astro not quite on for the sound
4676s barrier either that thing was about five
4678s percent off at 95 that would have been
4680s probably burned that fight fix it then
4682s burning as well now I'm in three to
4683s follow through the overclock no response
4685s from funny as you just yet either
4694s all right that's these penny pinching
4697s with the alts where they where they can
4699s which is good to see
4700s I still have those defensive tools so
4702s I'm not gonna be forced to use anything
4703s here but you should still also have a
4706s plethora of alts to use for themselves
4708s well happy Under Pressure clock gonna
4711s need to be big but yeah he is still
4712s under pressure now the final's gonna be
4714s coming through and that is enough to
4715s force out the sound barrier picks up
4716s matches Belgrade Dives back in
4718s responsive for a brief little moment
4720s once again on top of this Soldier the
4722s rapist he is playing quite slipperily
4724s here and then capture goes in dead plots
4726s up this time around gonna be finding
4727s some immense value cleans up too happy
4729s with the overclock got zest the bolstery
4731s it does get Astro in the end but that is
4734s the cleanup and fusion have to be sent
4735s packing back towards the spawner store
4737s so for now Gladiators they have control
4738s of the card I mean it was basically
4740s every single other ultimate burn right
4741s at that stage you're looking towards a
4742s rapist who's gonna break the stale mate
4744s no one's coming down here happy survive
4746s the belief shoe even zoosing him when
4748s Bella's real Dives on in funny Asher
4750s with the sound barrier timing to put the
4752s team up and this is what he was saving
4753s it for right for that clutch moment
4756s now Gladius 20 slowed things down
4758s forcing back to Fusion
4761s first big reset of the entire map so far
4763s of this attack so far it's gonna be
4765s Primal versus S on the den wasn't a shoe
4769s also finds the optimizer and bustle
4770s trying to catch up
4775s just damn this is 11 shy not too far off
4778s a couple more q9s through a little bit
4780s of healing there on that and then three
4781s and it'll have it there you go
4784s online does it even get to use it this
4788s gets absolutely blasted take it down TP
4791s up shoes and tries to stay alive but he
4793s can't see Pete far enough because Fusion
4795s are so far forward at the moment wow
4797s looking for a little bit more fixer
4799s holds the cart gets the cap money Astro
4801s but he does manage to make his way back
4803s into the spawner door so it will at
4805s least be grateful to have his life
4806s intact confusion nothing just pull away
4810s yeah that will mean that Gladius can't
4813s really make an early fight happen at all
4815s you should get a bit of a free push on
4816s this payload
4817s and the ability for Fusion that burned
4820s down Rhino so good and the guy doesn't
4821s even have time to pop the Primal it's
4823s like he's playing my bang
4824s and Philadelphia Fusion to Target damage
4826s so well played number three coming
4828s through with another overclock and
4829s Clarity is they've just got to run from
4831s this one for now but it's more free push
4832s look at what the payload is
4835s I just might not think there's no Hawaii
4836s flame this time around they are all on
4838s land Rider does get the Primal off goes
4840s into the back line the focus fire is
4841s looking too damn good and they take him
4843s down all the same the peel isn't there
4845s they can't keep them alive sound barrier
4848s now used to try to Shield up the
4849s remaining four members and he has to
4851s drop that one in fix it does get taken
4852s down he was five percent shy of his own
4854s sound barrier so for now the fusion will
4856s be staved off they pull back away
4857s they've got plenty of time in this Bank
4859s he's now up to three minutes they want
4861s to wait just one out oh wow Happy Feet
4863s with a nice rail shot takedown mn3 that
4865s buys up even more time and space yeah if
4867s the fixer kill wasn't enough that kill
4868s onto mn3 surely will be
4871s and happy once again
4873s he is going to be the one staving off
4875s the Philadelphia fusions Onslaught here
4877s that killed to fix it by the way earlier
4879s on really really useful as you mentioned
4880s only five percent off the sound barrier
4882s Fusion otherwise would have been able to
4883s stay in
4884s balustria going for the dive in he's
4887s taking a lot of damage though this has
4888s to be a beat it is
4890s overclock down from Happy shoe falling
4892s lower pops the rush instantly but then
4894s it's gonna be eliminated that possible
4896s for capster this time goes even bigger
4898s finds three from selfless for a little
4900s bit more put some damage down picks up
4902s for it nearly has the ace Reiner will be
4905s able to take the kill away there on AIM
4906s God now we should again falling shy of
4909s the mark Gladiators they expect
4910s everything look at that looking good on
4912s the hold so far so it's the casino Rush
4914s coming through from shoe in the end
4915s stick burn on that death blossom
4918s and fusion we're not prepared for that
4920s we're not ready for the ability for
4922s capsu just to turn that fight around
4923s glad you to survive once more time it's
4925s time to go a bit short here a little bit
4928s low for the Philadelphia Fusion a couple
4929s more good attempts but the resources
4931s start looking a little bit low as well
4933s we have to kind of manually Force the
4935s eye into these fights
4938s got the blossom at the ready forces the
4940s racewalk out of campster look through
4941s the TP up to opposite side we'll try to
4944s drop that bunny after goes up there to
4946s try to poop off nearly loses his light
4948s for it and then three in the meantime
4949s does get captures the blossom itself not
4951s gonna get too much but they still do
4952s find some opening picks jumping back
4954s down into the spawn room doors is the
4956s majority of the Gladiators Reiner's
4958s still trying to play out the sound
4958s bearing comes super funny Astro
4960s shielding up the remaining four caps are
4962s now in the respawn lower but then gets
4965s the Primal and he manages to stay alive
4966s asuzu as you say instrumental fellas
4968s real now celebrate HP remaining as we
4970s tucked down under a minute remaining for
4973s the side of the fusion overclock is at
4975s the ready
4976s afro in the chest they do not find the
4979s kill happy however does fellows real now
4981s eliminated and the odds of finishing
4983s this map are dwindling for the side of
4985s the Philly Fusion the last few moments
4987s the Gladiators have found their footing
4990s they've found their stride and they're
4991s shutting down the fusion every twist and
4994s turn I mean that could be it if you
4995s should have one more good shot to hit
4996s the capital has to be the OT double
4997s support ultimates online Airmen three on
4999s the tracks the Heroes all they need the
5000s speed they need the ability to touch
5002s that payload and aim God was just so
5004s close to responding the shoes shoe drops
5006s in the katsuna rush ain't got like three
5008s percent off something like that fixer as
5009s well the clients get aggressive
5012s Watson goes out forward remaining mn3
5015s take it down happy with a headshot punch
5017s the Tracer says he's on top of a funny
5018s answer they'll find the elimination now
5020s Reiner going to fall the two for one so
5022s far as the cart is pushing forward and
5024s someone needs to touch Kevin TP is up
5026s goes into the right walk just trying to
5027s buy some time for the Winston to rejoin
5029s the Frank if they can clear out the
5030s reaper they should be able to get the
5031s captain and the Astro comes diving back
5033s and Bell's real gonna be taken down now
5035s eliminated zest silver makes Pete take
5038s it down it looks at the Gladiators have
5040s just about Managed IT last shot not
5042s going to connect with this nothing more
5043s than in God can do they get in the
5045s contest within two meters of the finish
5048s and they managed to hold it out from
5050s there Gladiators have a win condition so
5052s clutch at the end there from there like
5053s Gladius multiple fights in a row they
5055s look like they could have been down
5056s great suzu say from shooter keep Ryan
5058s interrupt in one of those fights as well
5060s you have the fact that Shu and funny
5061s Asher just barely out takes aim gotta
5063s fix it in I think the second to last
5065s fight and then you actually get to the
5066s last fight despite the double spot
5068s ultimates being burned it's happy that
5069s finds the opening frag I mean what a
5072s shot what a play mm3 down five versus
5073s four Gladiators when they need in the
5075s most happy delivers
5081s now everything
5083s on the line for this attack for the
5085s Gladiators if they can just get to the
5086s end of the map we'll be able to tie this
5088s up and take their map pick of King's Row
5091s we know how heavily Dependable some of
5095s these points can be especially on that b
5096s stretch confusion if they can start
5098s things off on point a draining down that
5101s clock
5102s just a bit really weak in a Time bang
5104s for the next stretch they may be able to
5106s take it there but Gladiators definitely
5108s looking a bit more jazzed up yeah at the
5111s end of that defense well I mean it's not
5113s the same energy that same impact that oh
5115s boy they can steamroll on this attack
5118s you know so here we go this is uh
5121s the team coming into the last fight it
5122s is big boob oh fixer
5126s just off the side barely missed the lip
5129s I mean even if he stays alive I don't
5132s think you see the numbers were not good
5134s but anyway I was going to mention that
5137s I'm glad that Gladius got it together
5139s towards the end on C because A and B
5140s left a lot if you decide there
5142s especially a I mean it was just like an
5144s instant cap coming through there was a
5146s Recon tits Rhino dying twice in a row in
5148s terms of first Bloods
5150s I think it's funny went down
5151s there as well so a couple frags not
5153s going the way of La glad it's just
5154s something on the offense
5156s unhappy
5160s finds Juan caps here as well taken well
5164s raises his way out bubbles used Ryan are
5167s just providing some extra protection
5168s there for everybody else to pull back
5169s behind the bus
5172s but for now they will be all right him
5174s and three still so much fearlessly
5175s playing forward here at the opening
5177s Archway slides back around the opposite
5179s side playing More in towards that point
5181s well I thought I'd get the charge he's
5183s got the rail charge off the back of that
5184s one that's what you're looking for
5185s doesn't find a shot but
5187s okay because he realize the shoe is
5189s right above him they finally did at the
5191s very end Zuzu gone they know that cool
5193s down
5195s workable
5198s yeah I've got dick and he's finished off
5200s Bella three up finds that killed Brian
5202s just has to leave out safety trying to
5205s escape but the final rail shot will be
5207s good enough to kill and funny after it's
5208s gonna be an even later stagger now she's
5210s got nowhere to go
5211s it's gonna be a good pick it looks like
5213s wait you have a time mn3 gets an
5215s overclock before any of his supports get
5216s melted but he's the first player on his
5218s team to get an ultimate wow shooting
5219s funny ashraction to find this on the
5221s opposite end and the difference between
5222s him and three and happy so far is a good
5224s 31 maybe a little bit more so the
5227s opening damage and picks down in between
5229s swamps
5231s [Music]
5235s this time around
5237s he's back over the rest of the squad
5238s sound barrier in for fixed but they're
5240s still looking to hold this and she will
5241s get traded so it's gonna be the Killer
5242s goes down on either side this is going
5244s to beat the overclock Amelia available
5245s now has it available does he decide to
5248s pop it here and now we'll have to just
5249s wait and see he's down to 46 HP with the
5251s kills continue to be found for the
5253s Gladiators players happy with a final
5255s shot finishes off Bella Seria that
5256s should be them being able to get the cap
5258s without having to commit any further
5259s ultimate to the fight
5271s super close
5274s they barely get the touch I think
5276s contesting yeah Tesco's in he's the
5278s first one to find that touch the death
5279s Blossom is available here from Capstone
5281s right now just you can get out neutrally
5282s against sass low HPM and three taking
5285s down the final rage able to finish him
5287s off Belgian goes diving forward gets
5288s finished just fine shoot for his trouble
5290s but minor they will be clean up too
5292s Dixon tries to exit the Caps comes in
5294s you should just buy a little bit of
5295s extra time and they do take them down to
5298s below four minutes for this next phase
5300s of the backflip if the Gladiators have a
5303s very clean beat take they're gonna be
5304s sitting pretty that was worth for Fusion
5307s I mean they burned the extra death
5308s Blossom but they get to Ultimate
5309s response happy and Rhino pressure to use
5312s their alts to try and clean up that
5313s fight Fusion to get the retake and the
5315s retake while they don't win that fight
5316s it does again cause Gladiators something
5319s to count the point delays the point
5320s capture a bit more Burns to timer down
5324s now Fusion gearing up for the actual
5326s fight that they want to go through with
5327s as the cartoon rush comes up for aim God
5329s shu's still very far away funny ashra
5332s will be pressure to burn the sound
5333s barrier unless they can unless you can
5336s get a kill I was going to take disengage
5337s but they don't need to do that Kim's
5338s gonna go for two
5340s no they do not capster does find them
5342s and that's just gonna be a very Swift
5344s team kill shutting down any opportunity
5346s for the future to try and get that
5348s Archway control now it's going to have
5350s to be a last-ditch defense over in front
5353s of points being if they want to be able
5354s to train the time make it even further
5355s if not get a hole
5360s didn't get to use the uh ultimate there
5362s shoe now catches up so for the LA
5365s Gladiators that ends up being a gigantic
5367s fight when kevstrom wants more his death
5368s blossoms have been fighting from some
5370s pretty mad value of the course of King's
5372s Row so far multi-frags and multiple of
5374s those death was Final contests here in
5376s God waiting
5379s okay rush her Rush goes out
5381s me
5383s well built looking for a Target bubble
5385s comes down they break that one instantly
5387s gets the shot through the shoulder
5388s Amendment Three takes him low the beat
5390s now to be forcedure overclock here on
5392s The High Ground gonna be pop happy still
5394s under a bit of fire as well as Ria goes
5396s diving in I think they're trying to deal
5397s for the rest of the squad let's just
5399s focus back in over it towards that
5400s sojourn the death Blossom comes in
5402s possesses instantly shut down by happy a
5405s great headshot off the overclock finds
5407s the kill but mn3 with one of his own
5408s will get the punish on the happy so it's
5410s gonna be a damage to it more damage
5411s dealer in the end the card still
5412s contended in front of me but now that he
5414s begins taken away from the Gladiators
5416s with campster falling Ryder tries to
5418s trade him back and gets them in three
5419s with a Primal Rage it's the jungle wow
5422s to find the claim down takes down the
5424s Lucio now the rest of the fusion have
5426s their work cut out for them Reiner can
5427s still blow hovering around half HP but
5429s they need to be able to get the
5430s finishing blows looks like they might
5432s just make their exit Gladiators need to
5433s reset oh that was so impressive from
5435s Rhino though it was a kind of a risk to
5437s play through there could have been a
5438s really bad Primal Rage but he gets two
5440s it was a 3v Vibe situation Capstone to
5442s return now
5452s two minutes and 44 seconds the fusion
5455s needs to defend more if they want to
5456s walk away Victorious on the map yep they
5459s don't have the time back to play through
5460s here either there was no capture for
5462s Fusion on seat
5463s Gladiators they have the time they have
5465s the objective set in front of them win
5467s conditions a player as well funny ashra
5469s close to sound barrier the fixer is when
5471s we exchange the katsune rushes the extra
5473s sound barrier can make all the
5474s difference here unless Fusion can get a
5477s really good disengage they have to be
5479s prepared and the closer the payload gets
5481s the cap the less of an opportunity they
5482s can disengage
5483s let me
5485s okay rush for Rush again balance Rhea
5487s assassinated catch the fights to kill
5489s the nest Blossom layered in as well
5491s helps set up for the elimination onto
5492s zest and the fusion are just suffering
5495s losses at every twisted turn picks up
5497s the last one standing as the cart starts
5499s to advance getting ready to go into that
5501s purple box of Victory funny answer is
5504s still holding the sound barrier don't
5505s forget jumps for it he's Primal needs
5507s some heal doesn't have something but he
5508s can take it down three percent shy of
5511s the mark zest now the one who keeps the
5513s card contested for the moment but the
5515s rail is available and zest he's just
5517s going to fall mm3 sniped and there you
5520s have it the push comes through
5521s Gladiators on their map pick of King's
5524s Row make it happen they get to the end
5526s they tie it up one to one and all other
5528s things considered you know we look at A
5530s and B okay
5532s could have been better for that like
5533s glad he was dead but it comes down to
5535s the sea port of the sea defense they
5537s held the fusion solely not allowing the
5540s fusion to get any extra distance so many
5541s clutch plays in the defense from
5542s multiple members happy shoe kevser all
5545s the Fantastic things there even on the
5547s offense I mean I think you can't really
5549s overstate the fact that Rhino pulling
5551s through the 3v5 Primal to get two kills
5553s and then having the Alexius respawn
5555s regroup on that payload with capster
5556s then coming in for the cleanup that
5558s ended up being a humongous play that
5559s Captain B and an instant snipe on the
5561s seat that does not end a katsuna rush
5563s that heavily favors the Gladiators and
5565s got to shoot trade funny Astra doesn't
5567s even need to use the sound barrier there
5569s they just get the kills they just out
5570s Friday bellatria melted a mirror of what
5573s we saw from Rhino being melted
5574s previously when they were the ones
5575s defending and the clients just push it
5577s through great map Choice from the Ali
5579s Gladius and a great comeback as well
5582s fantastically done at the tie it up set
5584s and that's what we like to see No One's
5586s Gonna Be bombing out of this with a 0-3
5589s loss so the Gladiators successfully
5591s fight back now Fusion will have their
5593s map pick when it comes to escort so
5595s we'll see exactly where they want to go
5597s and whether or not they're going to be
5598s able to retake the lead and take it to
5600s match a point or if the Gladiators will
5602s now have the upper hand things looking a
5605s hell of a lot better for them compared
5607s to yesterday compared to even just that
5608s first map of Oasis Gladiators are here
5611s to play onto some fusion to answer back
5613s we'll see if they can get it done when
5614s we return from the break
5618s look every single game we saw today went
5621s to map number five so I don't even
5623s understand or know anymore
5635s with 30 seconds to go and the low health
5637s bars are shocked they're gonna have to
5639s play safe giving up even more ground
5642s a shark they have the spawn Advantage
5644s though as long as they start getting
5645s picks here Aztec
5648s he's going crazy give him a kick give
5651s him a punch two kills for the Zen a
5654s completion Insight another kick and
5656s another kill for Aztec he gets slept and
5658s finally put to rest but not before the
5662s Titans can get the payload in
5666s must be the end of it all right here
5667s right now six percent left to go
5670s continuing to tick up leave gonna be
5672s displaced off that High Ground the stick
5674s jinmill finds far away a massive pickup
5676s once more
5678s as the overclock is there developed
5680s trying to duck and dive could say one
5682s with the pulse bomb we'll manage to find
5683s leave it or upset now developing a
5686s unique argon jinmu starting to pop Crone
5688s gonna be emptied out cannot survive
5690s jinmu finds the elimination and that
5692s should basically be it
5694s there's a couple people left alive on
5696s the side of the charge trying to fight
5697s back but with choice they want far away
5699s dying the OT will bleed away it's a 2-0
5701s closed out on Oasis and a 3-1 victory
5703s for the side of the Chengdu Hunters
5707s flatter headshot too far forward and now
5709s Fates had to make a disengagement into a
5711s disasterous territory and it's still
5713s over time dragons have to fight this 4v5
5715s there's Furies grab flux it focuses down
5719s Fate it gets them low but Fusion didn't
5721s pop the bubble and they were playing far
5723s back as he got antibi easy Yaki lupus
5726s killed two and this is the performance
5729s you needed him to have the dragons are
5732s looking outstanding with him on the
5733s sojourn
5736s Gaga is looming above them ready to drop
5738s onto someone like lensa and Molly sashin
5741s is taking the space notice his Hunters
5743s on the left side and there's Dia with
5746s the range and the picks and finds even
5747s the second one they might not even need
5749s the ultimates but they're still gonna
5751s invest the graviton dragon strike and
5754s deal with the ace and monk heads for the
5756s Hills
5758s they cannot get rid of the echo on top
5760s of the point is Victoria as well Boston
5762s are gonna go for it this is their last
5763s shot sound barrier comes out so Martin
5765s has the coalescence he had to call
5767s lessons a valentine Burns him to the
5769s ground now that Mayhem have once
5771s supported no support ultimates to work
5773s with it's our Salters up to the point
5775s but the uprising of lost Crimson it's
5777s all on MCD to keep them going right now
5778s the point is flipped in over time the
5781s Mayhem have got to respond and they do
5782s so MCD is down and now Crimson has to
5785s come in on the Lucio no healers for the
5786s uprising but Valentine has a duplicate
5788s now he's doofus dropped him with a
5790s seismic slam takes a ton of damage and
5792s can't disrupt the mate him nearly enough
5794s margin comes back with a call let's
5795s instead of Vengeance but actually gets
5797s burnt down there's gonna be a touch
5798s Crimson gets to the point here and
5800s Valentine is trying to pressure from the
5802s outside as long as he can but the
5804s uprising they need reinforcements Here
5806s Comes MCD on the Moira the point is
5808s allowed to flip now but Valentine stays
5810s alive and you can't be serious the
5813s uprising can't get there three players
5817s but the broom comes out and the Mayhem
5819s sweeped them away unbelievable
5836s [Music]

5914s I'd be there but I have a wedding coming
5916s up the week so I can't travel right now
5918s you know what I'm just greedy I'll just
5920s go to both I I couldn't choose so why
5922s not but it's true that's for me you are
5924s doing that you have a wild travel
5925s schedule coming up this is pretty crazy
5929s uh before the players here for the teams
5931s I mean that'll all be postseason right I
5932s mean I said post something after the
5934s finals and for them it'll be a well
5936s awarded rest a Long Way to the rest for
5939s some teams or some play so they would
5941s like to have that rest after the finals
5943s if not before and for those teams only
5945s one of those teams will get to continue
5947s in this series today into the playoffs
5949s today and the other will be going home
5951s one to one in the series it's going to
5953s end up with a very close King's Row
5955s Oasis is a little bit more favored
5957s towards the fusion side
5959s now a third map Choice coming through
5961s the summit will come through from the
5963s Philadelphia Fusion
5964s and uh
5966s just so I can talk about it it's gonna
5967s be route 66.
5969s and I'll save everyone from the long
5971s speeches they had actually before we get
5973s to that talk about happy first and we'll
5975s get to Route 66 happy was already in a
5978s position that he was in my opinion kind
5979s of keeping the glads alive on Oasis
5981s despite them losing and then on King's
5984s Row he got even more heated up and on
5987s top of that he also started to see some
5988s other players come and kept some
5989s multi-fragon on that Reaper death
5991s Blossom primarily for the amount of
5994s frags they're happy had I mean even
5995s shutting down plays we didn't have the
5997s overclock shutting down inventory a
5999s couple times as well I mean that really
6001s gave Gladiators to Edge when they needed
6002s it
6004s I killed him in three in the last one
6005s yeah happy stuff like that Happy's been
6007s incredible and I I always will love
6010s seeing happy do well I was you know I
6012s had the The Good Fortune of casting that
6014s man in his debut all the way back in
6016s 2018 contenders and it's good to see
6018s that he is still in the scene still very
6021s much a force of nature when it comes
6023s down to that hit scan play
6025s so wonderfully done by happy there on
6028s King's Row can he maintain the
6029s performance can all be Gladiators
6031s maintain the performances my question
6032s you already mentioned it Route 66 is the
6035s map selection here for the Philadelphia
6036s Fusion let's see whether or not they
6040s will be able to go ahead and retake the
6042s lead from here where the map is gonna be
6044s moving up to match point from there
6047s there will be just one map away from
6048s keeping themselves in the tournament and
6051s eliminating their opponent
6054s just in case anybody doesn't know how
6056s best of Threes work their best and fives
6057s work that's the threesome
6061s and what do I say about this because
6063s Fusion because it's it's the kind of
6065s thing where like back in the midst of
6066s Madness there's a bit of tirade for me
6068s about like oh why did they go to Chicago
6070s Royale Jin what are you doing what is
6071s Jin cooking when they had that sort of
6074s situation where they got full hell but
6075s they didn't think they were able to get
6077s a fuller hold might have been versus
6078s Dallas can't remember
6080s um we're in a much different meta now
6082s much different patch I I fully
6083s understand uh teams maybe not wanting to
6085s go to a map like circuit uh but you want
6088s to keep Alice forget in if you'd like to
6090s just take fewer risks here you want to
6091s play more Winston comps uh but beyond
6094s that as well it just seems like across
6096s the board whenever Fusion get the chance
6098s to go for a map 3 pick on an escort man
6101s they almost always currently choose
6104s route 66 on both teams uh not bug teams
6107s one of these teams are fully Fusion
6108s actually did get to play a versatile
6109s under Spitfire they chose it versus them
6110s as well a 3-2 result they did not finish
6113s the map London did so Philly now trying
6116s to rewrite history a little bit now
6117s versus the gladi Gators
6121s here's my question do we see a forward
6123s hold zest right now going to be lurking
6125s within the train car I mean Ryan is
6127s gearing up for it with him he's ready
6129s for it okay one
6131s that's kind of what you do right you
6132s play The Hog out the gate to try and
6134s break out the spawn hold it is effective
6135s it is what teams find success though
6138s talk about success
6140s on the board
6143s yeah the instant swap they're gonna try
6144s to go three aggress here though are the
6147s fusions jumps forward does find half
6148s beat now tries to make his way out oh
6150s boy he's got about 15 days to be
6152s remaining that's actually grabbed the
6153s health pack because Vixen just hey well
6156s he would love to get all that all charge
6157s it's just not nearly fast enough healing
6159s to keep the Winston in this fight pulls
6161s back to Big Earls a one for one but the
6163s cart wrapped up here by the Gladiators
6166s good so far zest on the corner link it
6168s up with balance Regan out for the day
6170s the bubble breaks have to back on out a
6172s little bit away for a bit more charge
6173s from mn3 building it off that Shield
6180s but now mm3 just lurking around in the
6183s flank trying to find some targets to
6185s build up for the rail a couple shots in
6188s disrupting shot forces have to slide
6190s away he'll jump back up on top of me
6192s girls
6193s hasn't really been able to build up that
6195s rail charge to try to find an instant
6197s pick so far and that one's really that
6199s close ultimate yet aggressive in the
6200s back line could be shooting the name God
6202s I think that might be the first for the
6203s ultimates funny Ash we're actually
6204s really getting ahead now as well
6206s low Edge people Nolan's down below there
6209s it is that's the first one they're
6209s looking for
6211s the April shot not connecting but happy
6212s still forcing position here against the
6214s fusion members now Emmett three very
6216s much out of position ends up getting
6218s flipped fixer will manage to exit but
6220s they need Bell's ready to come back if
6222s they want to be able to defend this
6223s point a again I think there was a high
6225s likelihood if they don't give that kill
6226s to bellatory or anybody for the 5v4
6228s funny Asher goes for the tempo beat the
6229s Nelly Gladius use their advantage of
6231s having the first ultimate
6233s now the fusion getting ready for the
6234s read check this will be the katune rush
6236s coming on third more ultimates from the
6237s fusion as well once this fight goes
6239s longer
6240s [Music]
6250s now has the second beat Fusion the upper
6253s handy in the fight and Reiner gonna be
6255s the first one to get taken down they
6256s successfully retake the card for now
6259s 1.28 meters a left to go Gladiators get
6262s close but of course they have some more
6263s time to work through but half the time
6265s bank has been drained down
6269s despite the sound barrier now happy
6271s getting that frag that's got to be
6273s forcing the Philadelphia fusion into a
6274s really weird spot Zed pulls trigger it's
6277s not gonna be enough yep got the shot and
6279s the alley-oop is there on to fix
6280s something finds the kill as you say
6282s Seth's not getting anything at all with
6284s the death Blossom the cleanup comes
6285s through and it's gonna be just shy in
6287s four minutes now as we go into the
6289s second phase of Route 66 it's once again
6291s happily he does the job he gets the
6293s trick done finds the Frank required for
6295s the glass to get the cap
6297s starting one failed fight there roughly
6300s Nelly Gladius otherwise getting some
6302s decent pace coming through Route 66 it's
6305s Philadelphia Fusion now sitting on just
6306s a primal mirrored by Rhino also having
6309s that same primal
6311s Fusion Carly don't have any High Ground
6312s to work through though there's kind of
6313s flank
6316s fellas reinforce primal
6319s goes for it Brian are just I bought at
6322s The High Ground shifts away
6324s is the cart rolling as the Primal of its
6326s own if Bella three is not gonna be able
6327s to really find anything doesn't set up
6328s for any eliminations either if God's
6330s getting Dove on as the TP oh he's across
6333s but then it's instantly met with Dan
6335s chew he'll line up a kunai nicely set up
6338s mn3 dead once more happy with the head
6340s shot very much looking like himself now
6343s Belcher will find one but she was just
6345s absolutely right now
6348s watch a swift take on B they can
6351s definitely careful this as well there's
6352s not really many players alive for the
6354s fusion but it's really just respawns
6356s they can't touch they gotta give this
6357s one up it's done and Dustin what is that
6359s only one fight on B that is incredible
6363s from the LA gladiers I mean what Mastery
6365s showed her that offense You See Rider
6367s putting the pressure on towards aim God
6368s ensures that it receive the
6370s communication they're like yeah we've
6371s got a force Swift he knows he's not
6373s getting the kill but he knows one of his
6374s teammates will
6376s do you even call it a fight he was
6378s pretty much just a primal from Bella
6379s Surya and then everybody else one after
6381s the other he got taken down
6383s and then you look at the Gladiators they
6385s don't do anything because they don't
6386s have to they're chilling on the payload
6388s while balestry is trying to live just
6390s trying to fight for survival
6393s Gladiators are flying this to a t right
6395s now
6398s the rush comes in from shooting gun
6400s gonna be matching
6402s to the reaper is to try to find him
6404s the back line nice little Boop forces
6407s away the death block to fellow tree is
6408s still low on HP and the fusio shielding
6410s does expire catch the pushes into the
6412s bubble and there is just no peel no hope
6414s for the little scientists on the side of
6416s the fusion just take it down and the
6417s three however popsy overclock will find
6419s two quick kills him done and funny Astro
6421s drain it out
6433s look like they were going to handle that
6436s fight they were even pretty surprised I
6437s would say that Fusion managed to come
6439s through that many kills end up being a
6440s 2v3 the fusion has the three glad Johnny
6443s the two DPS plays alive no one else just
6445s gets away on one HP but now they have to
6448s fight up against half his overclocked
6455s to use that death Blossom and now
6457s they're being rerouted the car getting
6459s closer and closer but now he's not
6460s pushing still so damn close to the
6462s completion happy however because over a
6464s step goes a little bit too deep ends up
6466s falling as well Rider as fixa is filling
6468s the kill feed the battle Lucille making
6470s a return and he'll make his exit stays
6473s alive keeps the rest of the squad topped
6474s up as well nice little Boop the force
6476s funny Astro into the ceiling to get the
6478s kill
6479s another recovery from the fusion Arizona
6481s that was another 4v5 because so the
6483s happy pops over clark says gets Dome
6485s straight away as you say
6486s a fusion understanding there's two
6488s options that you back out into spawn or
6490s you go hard and heavy straight into that
6492s like Gladius 4v5 and that works out for
6494s them Multiplex fixer like you said as
6496s well getting Super Active surprise him
6498s for the loose joke but it works out
6501s Alex is losing quite a decent amount of
6503s time here that's uh Good Will being
6505s brought up from A and B in terms of how
6506s quickly the captain that's being
6508s shredded
6511s okay the rush is incest
6514s pick apart Reiner pops the Primal and
6516s actually just makes his exit so won't be
6517s able to utilize that altitude too much
6519s he's uses it as a bailout tactic
6522s sound barrier is there for fix it as
6524s well once you decides to pop his own
6526s consumeration
6528s zest has get lost some Captain so far
6531s has been getting mad value on that
6533s okay there it is zest is the only one
6535s that doesn't receive the shielding
6537s that's awesome even the back line mn3
6539s gonna be taken down the answering lots
6541s of shutdown that's unable to find
6543s anything fix it again the one coming up
6545s with a kill TP out from Aim God Bell's
6547s real down at half HP to contest touch I
6549s mean it needs to happen right now the
6551s push away a force picks up back and that
6555s is going to be the Gladiators getting to
6556s the end of the map but just 59 seconds
6558s remaining so we do have to give some
6560s credit over to fusion with a defense in
6562s the final stretch because I think this
6564s was widely absent on the first two
6566s points hey fella Sharia going down there
6568s not quite alive all in position to go
6570s for the final touch I think like you
6571s said fix it got booped away as well
6573s so if you can't quite continue that but
6575s Ali Gladius with that still I think a
6578s pretty reasonable time bank All Things
6579s Considered right C ended up being a bit
6581s more of a Slowdown than the glads would
6583s have been happy to receive
6585s but a full finish here is
6587s possibly more than enough if you
6589s consider how history is gone
6591s Fusion we're not able to finish the map
6593s versus London and they've got the three
6596s points here for the full cap
6598s ready actually when you really think
6599s about it both of these teams lost in
6601s London which is why they face up right
6602s now these uh the victims of the London
6605s Spitfire firing off
6606s the fusion needed to get more done than
6608s what they had versus that London 366
6610s match they need to actually finish it
6611s and hopefully with time as well so we're
6613s looking towards the A and B offenses
6615s which for the Gladiators were super
6617s quick for the fusion as well you need
6619s similar pace
6623s that they certainly do mn3 going to be
6626s looking to recreate some of that kebster
6627s magic with an opening pick but something
6629s tells me that Gladiators are going to be
6631s well prepared for it and The Chew is
6632s likely not gonna
6634s just tip his head out from around the
6636s corner
6642s this is only step one as well I mean
6644s yeah capsa managed to get the shot but
6646s then gladly it is further forward
6648s had that opening first blood as well I
6650s believe it was Bella's rear dying early
6653s together so multiple things working up
6655s without his offense on a
6657s let's see if anything happens with
6658s Fusion because so far they've sold to
6659s dislodge the Gladius brought home
6666s but now a lot of people fighting but
6667s Reiner again is going to get picked off
6669s funny Astro sliding in from behind not
6671s much that he could do needs to try to
6673s make his way out of here but fix us
6675s back so it's not going to be any Escape
6677s form and that's going to be a good
6679s amount of distance opened up here for
6680s the fusion but of course the glass will
6681s have enough time to get reset now
6683s prepared for a contest well the staggers
6685s are important here because as we reach
6687s the corner to get on top of big girls
6688s two members are still coming back from
6690s Spawn so instantly you see this balance
6692s rear the rest of the team they take High
6693s Ground Control this is something the
6694s Gladius could do earlier because when
6696s they had their same a attack they only
6697s got the one kill and fusion had a full
6699s wave of respawns there were no staggers
6701s yet with the staggers fusion of way more
6702s map control
6705s happy though off angle High Ground forum
6709s spotted and noted still when he's got
6711s that rail charged up have to be
6714s concerned about him both sides Gladiator
6716s just kind of Shifting yeah big girls
6718s conceded they'll take the tunnels
6721s picks up he's safe and the rail goes
6724s wide
6725s enough you should get payload controls
6727s also this works out pretty reasonable
6728s for them both teams on the low ground
6730s again Katrina Rush about 309 aim God
6732s soap right here shoe lagging behind
6735s yep there's the Raj coming through but
6737s look at the HP bars right now on the
6738s side of the fusion happy able to find
6739s one Astro had the beat dropped it in
6741s helps keeping them alive for now the
6743s Ryder still Falls bellezza is swiping
6745s away like a madman as he's rushed off
6748s absolutely insane just throwing the arms
6752s despite the initial kill
6754s it's still gonna be the fusion trade it
6756s brings something forward brings a new
6757s meaning to throwing hands right there
6759s he's got the Whirlwind arms gone I'm a
6761s good God and funny Astro I mean thank
6764s goodness L.A Gladys at least had that
6765s ultimate but you really need the cartoon
6767s of Russian shoe is so far behind he
6769s still doesn't quite have it yet he'll
6771s have it now for the retake this will be
6772s a very similar retake is what we saw
6774s refused the last time around him in
6776s three that looks like Hansen uses it
6780s yeah he was so damn close to having that
6783s Primal online that could be a big
6784s Turning Point unless the rest of the
6785s team can clutch out since Wilson from
6787s campster off screen not gonna be able to
6788s find anything I think he might have used
6789s it in that tunnel off of the left-hand
6791s side of the car right that's gonna be
6794s the cap coming in very similar time
6796s Banks here as we get ready to go into
6797s the second stretch I mean so well played
6800s there by him and three he Snipes down
6801s arguably the most important member if
6803s Rhino gets rival there I think that's a
6804s maybe successful defense you saw batting
6806s people towards campster's Deadpool
6807s system as well and the planets have a
6810s much more successful fight at minimum
6811s They delayed the cap for a much longer
6813s time
6814s at least the clients will get this
6815s respawn get active quickly they don't
6817s want to lose the speed
6819s part of the map the way that Fusion did
6821s which is with a bit of a whimper
6827s clock slide up over the top happy
6829s looking for a Target saw mn3 he saw
6831s session wants to try to eliminate one of
6833s them couldn't quite find him now the
6835s old's gonna expire Taylor but it's gonna
6837s start the king here pretty soon and as
6839s you say the payload has been locked into
6841s position for now Reiner playing just up
6843s above the members of the fusion
6846s but he's found picks up great punish
6852s more time fought that's plus that's not
6854s going to find too much of these findings
6855s near the Clark out Reiner
6858s shielding here from the sound barrier
6860s that push into the bubble trying to get
6861s the punish they still continue to take
6862s him well but it looks like he may be out
6865s of there bells Ria does hold the
6867s ultimate he's gonna continue to hold it
6869s doesn't need it gets the kill Ryan to
6870s take him down the cart now moving again
6871s for the fusion yeah Craig Cole there
6873s from Bella three had the opportunity to
6874s pull the prime but he knows he's got the
6875s kill to Ryan and now the Stag is coming
6877s through and boy are they big staggers as
6879s well the Ali Gladius lose multiple death
6882s as the final push comes on in however
6884s here's a key difference when glads were
6886s in this position they can't there was no
6888s final contest there should be now final
6890s contest from the Gladius given that the
6891s payload is not quite at the end a full
6893s five member respawn is their Reiner in
6895s position to go for the play
6898s after taking a lot of damage as he tries
6900s to get out of the door bell Street just
6902s holding it Ryan announce gonna be left
6903s down on that low ground alongside
6905s capster shoots joins him tping down to
6908s try to keep them alive while the fellas
6909s goes it deeper and deeper trying to
6911s wreak havoc trying to find these
6912s eliminations takes funny after down to
6914s about half can't make it happen but now
6916s needs to come back in with the rest of
6917s the teams in from shoe and they're
6919s looking to turn the fight now that
6920s they're split away from the tank Evans
6921s rate taken out fellas picked up in the
6924s back end who should have overstepped him
6926s overstayed and Gladiators now have
6927s control of the card once again what
6929s excellent juggle of the AdWords I mean I
6932s don't know if you paid attention to the
6933s HP Bots but so many members of the
6935s Gladius were super low but they would
6936s not go down Shu barely gets the katuna
6939s rush in time uses it speaking of juggles
6941s Bella Seria has a primal he was keeping
6943s two to three members at Bay the entire
6945s time from actually touching the payload
6946s and when the katuna Rush from shrew
6948s comes down only half the gladiers can
6950s actually use it but it's enough and the
6952s subsequent fight happy gets another kill
6953s another Gladys continue this B deepest
6956s look at the time whittled down Howell
6958s Fusion supposed to finish the map with
6960s this little time remaining
6963s still be on a man could happen but with
6965s time remaining certainly not
6969s we can get the cap right now would give
6970s them two and a half minutes and they
6971s would have to steamroll to try to get
6974s closer they're not matching the 59
6975s remaining they're definitely not
6976s matching collage 49 so it'll be an OT
6978s finish if anything
6981s okay
6985s so it's into the back that's awesome
6987s from kepster not gonna find anything he
6988s gets melted down and back not that
6990s blossom in from Seth just choose through
6992s the sound barrier shielding and money
6994s after offered up for his Squad
6996s and that will be the cleanup coming
6997s through Reiner wisely holds on to the
6999s Primal Rage for the next phase of the
7001s mountains there and finally start moving
7003s but yeah it's gonna be shy of two
7005s minutes now and then he snowballs in any
7007s big snowball potential here and they're
7008s currently out of ultimates they don't
7009s have anything really big coming online
7011s Reiner can always store this Primal have
7013s to really credit the fixer there for the
7015s well-timed sound barrier it just barely
7017s I think blocks up capsters uh gets wants
7021s him happy pops the overclock as well has
7023s to chew through that green HP
7029s down even further
7032s I love it it's perfectly played it's
7034s exactly what you want to do because even
7035s if you lose here you have plenty of time
7037s to recontest
7038s my time off the time thanks they've
7040s already guaranteed that they're going to
7041s have the superior one
7043s if not fully denied the fusion from
7045s having a time back at all happy gonna be
7046s taken out those we have finding one the
7049s Lionel Moore try to get this car rolling
7050s and now the Rival is going to have to be
7052s used beltran's fighting this place as
7053s best as possible to run committed to the
7055s fight by chill to put some targets here
7057s it makes it takes a little bit of a
7058s zapping but overall it's still going to
7060s be all right Maria jumping back in with
7062s the rest of the team he's trying to
7063s displace Reiner at all costs
7066s any shape should be helping for a little
7068s bit longer but aim God eventually finds
7069s that elimination but I mean glads are
7070s more than happy to just throw Corpus I
7073s mean that's so good for money there as
7074s well he saves to play more rage knows
7075s that this is not the critical fight they
7076s need to win shoot trades let's get tuna
7078s rush for Bella three years Primal race
7080s so even though Fusion get past an
7082s initial choke and they can't suspend
7083s ultimates for it and Gladius come out
7085s ahead because the 35 seconds remaining
7087s Fusion are under a lot of pressure here
7088s and glance from all the hits on the
7090s timings for their own ultimates by the
7091s time the fusion won a fight this might
7093s be good especially with that kill
7095s huge pick from Shield 23 seconds
7099s remaining need to tuck out of here as
7101s quickly as possible and picks has taken
7102s down as well Clash of Spawn can more
7104s time gone
7106s they could just chill they can sort of
7107s just chill the trophy and wait for the
7108s sports to come into Fusion have to go
7110s for the touch Zone 10 seconds remaining
7112s the car swap Heroes looks like a four
7113s ultimate to play through glad to
7115s actually back out a little bit this is
7116s gonna be the fight maybe in this Lane
7117s here aim God's positioning for this
7119s katuna Rush it's gonna be everything
7121s I jump over it Reiner goes into the back
7123s line the prime will now pop he's looking
7124s to isolated Target it's like everybody
7126s has been elusive though now the card
7128s starts moving forward Rush still held
7131s the sound barrier gone bloody Astros
7133s drops in the beat mn3 is taking down
7135s that's the overclock now completely
7138s unaccounted for in the fight Captain
7139s with the death boss I'm not gonna be
7140s able to find anything happy applying
7142s pressure from the back line slides away
7143s for a brief little moment that's as well
7144s not getting much of anything done for
7146s the blossom of his own ain't got
7148s headshot taken down the clap have this
7150s map in their hands and it looks like
7152s they are not trying to drop it down
7154s verbally grasping it the cleanup comes
7157s through Inman three finally gets used as
7158s overclock he gets a kill with it but not
7161s the map win the map pick for the fusion
7164s does not work out the Gladiators
7166s successfully defend the stop Extra
7167s Innings from coming through and now they
7169s move up the match point and the more
7171s things change the more things they stay
7173s in the same here once again the
7174s Philadelphia Fusion will choose route 66
7177s they will fail to complete the map
7179s they'll only get the two point set and
7181s when push comes to shove it and the
7182s Ellie Gladys Mastery of just stalling
7185s that payload plane for the time of the
7187s end that very early push out from the
7190s defensive side to get on the payload of
7192s the choke of C so masterfully played
7195s just wasting the time the future when
7197s Fusion actually have the superior
7198s ultimates as well too much pressure B
7200s took far too long there's all Gladiators
7202s considering how fast it got through A
7204s and B that was the key Difference Maker
7206s to allow them to fully punish the map
7207s for Fusion did not have the same time
7209s remaining
7211s now Fusion are on their last leg
7215s they will have their selection as we get
7217s ready to go get to push and I think that
7219s you and I could take a very good stab in
7221s the dark as far as what that map pick is
7223s going to be I'm expecting to see some
7224s new Queens straight unless they want to
7226s throw a curveball but they need to get a
7228s win there to think it's into a game five
7230s if they want to stay alive so don't go

7501s over there is nothing left in the
7502s Atlanta reign
7505s s
7507s the Gladiators stuffing out the fuels
7511s flame ladies and gentlemen give it up
7512s for your Los Angeles gladiators
7515s [Applause]
7522s a bit more to cheer for right now for
7525s the Gladiators and their fans as they
7527s have the lead in the series but before
7529s we go into what could be our final map
7531s of this set let's take a closer look at
7533s the kitiko showdown between aim God and
7535s Shu and that's my criticisms of shoot
7538s early on especially on Oasis but I think
7539s the last two maps you really start to
7541s catch up especially on King's Row I know
7542s we'll look at the Route 66 stats here
7544s but uh the King's Road stats I think
7546s were even better for sure here she was
7548s very competitive I think he got some
7549s really good shots up some really nice
7550s kills for one area that I think shoes
7553s still lacks and falls behind aim God is
7555s in the charge rate of the actual katuna
7556s Rush ultimate and some of that is
7558s represented by the healing statistics as
7560s well so in that last map on Route 66
7563s here we have engorg still healing about
7566s 3 000 more so 16 500 for aim God 13 500
7571s for shoe and those numbers do add up
7573s that you know roughly gets you a couple
7574s of extra ultimates definitely one extra
7576s ultimate and we saw some of those
7577s timings there where she was just
7578s slightly behind especially after the
7580s neutrals right where Shu was even I
7582s think up to 30 behind of Ang God in
7584s their opening neutral on a so that has
7586s the one area that she still needs to be
7589s looking at despite now catching up on
7590s the other other areas the uh statistics
7594s well we'll see if aim God is going to be
7596s able to you know maybe catch up in some
7598s of the other metrics where shoe will
7599s just fully Take the Lead
7602s it all comes down to this for the fusion
7604s as we get ready to go in to push this
7606s could very well be the last map that
7608s this Squad plays here in the 2022 season
7611s unless they can get a win and take us to
7613s another map of control I mean you think
7615s back to Oasis how one-sided an affair
7617s that was at the ends of those rounds
7619s with Fusion getting the 2-0 if we go
7622s back to control you maybe start to favor
7623s them a bit more in that regard but they
7626s still have to get through this next one
7627s and I think the good and useful Fusion
7629s is they've been pretty successful and
7631s consistently successful Rush team I want
7634s to say Rush team I mean push team we'll
7635s see if they're a good Rush team as well
7636s there and they'll be a good Rush team on
7638s a push map as part of the reason why
7640s Fusion go to so many map fives is
7642s because you know they can pretty
7644s consistently win push take us to a map
7646s five now whether to win that map five or
7647s not has been pretty 50 50 over the
7649s course the regular season
7650s well that'll Gladius as well they had a
7653s very shocking loss to London Spitfire on
7656s Coliseum I believe in that particular
7657s series over the course of four maps that
7659s was the least competitive map from the
7661s LA Gladius out of all the four they
7663s played it was a full capture for the
7665s London spit by 140 meters to only a
7669s 25.75 meter capture by the Alexanders I
7672s mean they barely got the play the
7673s payload at all and I know you were
7675s looting to a specific map Choice before
7677s we got to this point before the uh
7679s before the break there Killers you were
7680s mentioning maybe the new Queen Street
7682s pick however this is going to be another
7684s one of those moments where you know we
7685s kind of feel like there's been
7686s historically a very strong map for the
7688s fusion in the case of escort that has
7690s been circuit Royale Jin prefers Route 66
7693s in the history for push has been in
7695s Queen Street but today again Jim prefers
7697s Esperanza so what is he cooking we're
7700s about to find out
7702s I want to see I mean I'm expecting you
7704s know more of the same as far as the cops
7706s are concerned I don't think this pick is
7707s going to be coming through with any
7708s differentiation in that regard but they
7711s must be feeling pretty damn confident in
7713s their play here on this map we've
7715s already seen I think this is what the
7716s third time now that we'll have been
7717s seeing is in the playoffs yep so still
7722s getting a good sense of how teams are
7723s going to look to play this one out but
7726s somebody to keep your eye on I mean well
7728s as I say keep your eye on zest because
7729s he's usually the one stealing the the
7731s bot away but that's playing the Tracer
7734s um we could do it on other Heroes as
7735s well probably less effective on the
7737s reaper you get punished for it
7740s so
7741s as I sort of mentioned yesterday when we
7743s casted this map much more consistent for
7746s teams to get that initial checkpoint
7748s capture but the rest of the map can be a
7750s bit more dubious so
7754s is The Benchmark for
7756s what it takes to get a point capture
7759s and as you sort of mentioned no changes
7762s and comps here as well the early
7763s positionings I think will be also quite
7765s interesting right just the both teams
7767s just fight for payload control right
7769s away does a team want to opt for more of
7771s the bridge control
7772s would be on the left side of where glads
7774s are currently to the bottom side of the
7776s screen
7776s and it's just gonna be a raw neutral uh
7779s both teams taking the same angles here
7781s with balance first
7784s myself inserted right at the front line
7787s double in responses People Protected
7790s rail shot goes across knocking final
7792s elimination yes we wait for the box to
7794s unlock a couple seconds but Bellagio on
7796s the re-aggression this time is fine as
7798s she gets there finds the opening kill
7800s now work certainly cut out for the
7802s fusion members they go diving into the
7803s back line zest alongside aim God try to
7805s find something a desperate play to turn
7808s the tides but it comes up short cleanup
7811s is there Glides in control first the
7812s push comfortable first fight win
7814s balustria falling down early I mean
7816s earlier in the series we had mostly
7817s Rhino falling down earlier now
7820s is a Philadelphia Fusion that is unable
7823s to get any counter trades once balustria
7825s is gone our aim God's low here's all
7827s happy somehow gets him down and a
7829s disruptor shot will have to finish it
7831s out
7832s no suzu no Swift step not too short to
7834s happen there but will cost Fusion more
7835s time technically not a fight but watch
7837s the payload distance it's getting very
7839s close now
7842s we're gonna talk about that charge
7844s giving the kills aim God is a little bit
7846s further behind chill not by too much
7849s though so still that extra death he pays
7850s for the big difference is funny after
7852s versus mixer it's actually two dicks at
7855s a moment
7856s yeah
7857s not been a good start so far but it
7859s doesn't finally get locked in place well
7860s HP bar is there for some of the fusion
7862s members we missed the job longer for
7864s Bella three again Yap doesn't quite have
7867s it can't make his way into the window
7868s and the glads are just facing what
7871s that's gonna be kept us off easy cat
7873s three fight wins in a row snowballing
7875s now from Alexander they haven't used any
7876s ultimates right with the light kill to
7877s fix it this is going from bad to worse
7880s for the Philadelphia Futures take a look
7882s at the situation again
7883s aim God full HP and then uh hide all the
7889s shoes who doesn't land the Sousa must
7891s have been half second off and wants to
7893s swim step on cooldown maybe I think he
7895s might have used a Swift step out of
7896s Spawn to teleport to a player then get
7899s caught out doesn't have the suzu hit and
7901s that's it I'm gonna go train on the tuna
7903s Rush
7905s Okay jump into the background looking
7906s for habit the sound barrier does come
7907s out in response funny ass we're trying
7909s to keep him safe a rush you're not gonna
7911s get much done either Fusion able to
7913s persevere with a rush of their own so
7915s that is a much-needed fight for the
7916s Philly Fusion one alt concept they get
7918s two out of the Gladiators they now have
7920s control but they did let me say this
7921s still so monstrous this is important to
7924s note by the way angles die three times
7926s and yet he still has a consumer Rush on
7928s Pace with Shu who hasn't died has not
7931s died so that's what I'm saying shu is
7933s consistently still behind aim God and
7935s and ultimate build time the fact that he
7937s has three extra lives with anger he
7939s should have been way more released
7941s impacts are done keep me up onto The
7943s High Ground funny Astro doesn't get out
7945s of there with time ends up dying and
7947s then three and use the overclock as well
7949s comes up with two kills for himself
7951s cleanup continues the bot however still
7954s very far
7955s they go they need to tie this up yeah
7958s they need about uh two to three fights
7961s maybe here definitely one more fight to
7962s get the cap I think they can get the cap
7964s within one more given how far away glad
7965s he is up but Gladys have also used here
7967s they have plenty of resources in with
7968s three cops shot on his way in
7971s so if nothing else I mean Bell Street
7973s and pixel will have to pop ultimate here
7975s but the two DPS from the glad he is it's
7977s gonna be hard to get past
7980s three at first the Primal Rider now
7981s gonna be magic
7983s drops down keeps the bot locked in place
7985s just going back and forth here against
7987s overclock is that from happy looking for
7989s some targets gets jumped down to about
7990s half HP death blossom in from capster
7992s not gonna be able to find anything just
7993s zones back to Fusion for the time being
7995s locked does start moving but they'll
7997s catch it here in the underpass watch the
7999s strike coming up ain't gone 85 side but
8001s shoe 66 once again he will be outpacing
8004s shoot
8005s before
8010s I thought the drop down maybe was enough
8011s to save him but no funny Astro manages
8014s to get line of sight pitches him up with
8015s a nice little headshot that'll be the
8018s cleanup in one hand Gladiators in
8020s control the buck not even halfway what a
8022s bailout the distance right now if
8024s fiction doesn't go down and forget about
8026s the second player dies as well but
8028s consider the 5v4 first of all it's a
8029s weird situation for Fusion to be in
8031s because they want to use this katuna
8032s rush it would have been a really good
8033s situation but clients don't have a
8035s response but as soon as they lose one
8036s their ability to pull through that
8037s ultimate starts to Lane even if you do
8039s pull it through 4v5 doesn't feel good so
8042s Gladius with a very clutch kill I mean
8044s if they do not get that kill I don't
8045s even know if they realize how much
8046s trouble they could have been foreign
8057s ER leaps it to find the kill and the
8061s glads are going to be pushing once more
8062s right now they're not even paying
8063s attention to the bot somebody moves back
8065s to go ahead and bring it forward but
8066s this is looking very dire yeah 100
8069s meters is about to be online for the
8070s glads it will be and this is a lot of
8073s distance Fusion to try and catch up on I
8074s don't I don't even know if it's
8076s well it's certainly possible but uh
8078s probable unlikely they saw him in touch
8080s yet we're nearly at 110 this is free
8082s push Fusion
8084s are just not active enough to stop this
8086s I'm 111 that's too much
8088s overclocked from mn3 needs to find some
8091s value but with the sound barrier out of
8093s a funny answer it becomes that much more
8094s difficult to make it happen however
8095s still finds kebsters the shielding
8097s expires but happy will find Seth and
8099s they've got with taking down moments
8100s before bellisria narrowly builds up the
8102s Primal Rage Against the Palm on that one
8104s drives into this place Happy who sits
8106s pop the overclock a couple shots through
8108s he's getting juggled back over towards
8110s the fusion spawn room doors finer in the
8112s meantime taken down they will finally
8113s get the kill they've got again though
8115s respawn sets right back into the room
8118s and Shu finds that elimination the pot
8119s for now will be in control of the fusion
8121s but they're gonna maybe get that into a
8123s neutral position
8125s well yeah they do and it seems like Shu
8128s will be able to confirm the spawn guess
8130s he does he was the latest member dead
8131s and the payload not quite able to be
8133s shot back in Reiner instantly he's even
8135s contesting from The High Ground that's a
8137s bit cheeky
8138s there's a gladiators
8140s prevent the tailor from even denying the
8142s neutral uh the the force public it
8144s doesn't even hit the mid
8146s yeah
8147s start to move again
8149s he's gonna rush out some shoes sound
8151s barriers there from fixer to try to keep
8152s them safe money has to announce gonna be
8154s trying to build up for his own sound
8155s barrier to match eight guys Rush he's
8157s gonna be there in about 20 before it
8160s spawns now lost Reiner taken down death
8162s Blossom comes through casters trying to
8164s get on top of him in three but he can't
8166s make it happen three instead a couple of
8168s small three kills here in the fight
8169s can't quite get the fourth but yeah
8172s still Scrappy bloody okay I'm clean
8175s whatsoever and cleans what Fusion need
8176s and and they don't have enough players
8178s alive right and in fact they're not even
8180s really gonna be they're not gonna get it
8182s it looks like M3 is more concerned about
8184s final rail charge
8185s I mean part of me would have preferred
8188s him to go for the push but at the same
8189s time I fully understand right they need
8190s some Firepower in this next neutral they
8192s need a straight up kill and the fact
8194s that happy just gets double supports on
8196s his way out I mean even Shu gets a break
8198s that's far too much of the future to
8199s lose there's him in three though okay
8201s Instant Pop instant kill and then three
8203s finds happy
8204s a good start funny Astro about to have
8206s the beat now is online does he committed
8208s here to the rest of the fight I see
8210s Gladiators just kind of getting in
8211s behind the Philadelphia Fusion members
8213s and now the sounds barrier will have the
8215s trigger pulled and the three pulling
8217s back shoot pursuing looking for the kill
8219s a little bit of kill here for him and
8220s green goes down that disruptor shot
8222s don't try to buy some space but
8223s eventually Astro gets his Mark finds the
8226s kill
8227s ounce limited tools here for the fusion
8229s picks up aim God both down on slippers
8231s of HP but happy does get swiped fellas
8233s Rio with a Primal Rage finds him finds
8235s the elimination picks up nearly getting
8237s Zapped out of midair and stay alive for
8239s a little bit longer here but Seth does
8241s ball caps are getting the elimination
8242s brought forward gets closer and closer
8244s towards that checkpoint the confusion so
8246s desperately mean glance of all else to
8249s have those forward spawns but with bells
8250s Ria going down to the class once more in
8252s control and look at the alt and fusion
8254s just can't get a cap here no matter how
8255s hard they try 45 meters no dice M3 has
8259s to be careful not to get killed okay
8260s Ryan at one seven oh my goodness or even
8262s better Primal for it might get
8264s additional value here gets a secondary
8265s aim God is nowhere to go and this is now
8268s falling the pieces once more for the
8269s fusion
8271s I mean zest as well nobody else here's
8273s the blossom
8275s he used the blossom
8277s and then Shu instantly kills him he said
8279s dive once and then it was wiped off the
8282s face of the Earth and die he dead and by
8285s the way that 117 now 120 plus
8289s infusion all right risk of being capped
8292s out
8294s drop rushed Shield overclock now from
8298s happy as well looking for some targets
8300s that's gonna be the first one to fall
8301s funny after his hands push up around the
8303s corner
8304s and it is just not even close they
8307s absolutely sweep them under the rug the
8310s Gladiators will once again occupy the
8312s bot and start moving forward to Victory
8315s should be on first to the finish on his
8317s bronzo online
8319s touch comes through from zans for a
8320s brief moment bells for you able to join
8322s back in even at the future can win this
8323s fight there's just 38 seconds remaining
8325s sound barrier comes in now from bunny
8326s Astro bellastria he hits the floor he's
8329s so sliver and he has taken down shoe
8331s finds the headshot this is it that
8333s should just be the beginning of the end
8335s shoe with a second kill zest out of
8337s there happy finds em in three and that
8340s will do it the cleanup comes in the butt
8343s will complete the map and the Gladiators
8346s will stay alive a 3-1 victory for them
8349s in this series as they eliminate the
8351s Philadelphia Fusion from the 2022
8353s playoffs
8355s the Gladiators live on to fight another
8357s day the Arenas where their lifeblood is
8359s and they will come back for another
8360s Challenger in that lower bracket
8362s yesterday versus the London Spitfire
8365s they were capped out on coliseo a very
8367s disappointing look on that bush map
8369s today or Esperanza which is by the way
8371s the Philadelphia fusions map Choice the
8374s LA clarius will find our first ever
8376s OverWatch League Esperanza full map
8379s completion and with flying colors as
8382s well the Philly Fusion did not even get
8384s the checkpoint here and as you mentioned
8386s their season is over their Runners done
8389s at least zest got to play one more match
8392s of OverWatch before the season is over
8395s Beyond this as well the rest of the
8397s teammates here Carpe who played on day
8400s number one with his future uncertain
8402s unknown his contract expiring at the end
8404s of this year five years on the
8406s Philadelphia Fusion
8408s and next year we don't know what's going
8411s to happen What will car face Legacy say
8414s after season five for me still the best
8417s player to have never won a title
8421s I think you could definitely make that
8423s argument
8424s for sure but it's gonna be
8426s an unfortunate way to end things here
8429s for the fusion and make their way over
8431s to North America first land for a lot of
8434s these players I mean I guess we can
8435s count the one that happened here in
8436s South Korea as well so maybe second plan
8438s but we're given the stakes
8440s first big major tournament for them
8444s and unfortunately it ends in a zero two
8446s match record Gladiators however looking
8448s much more like the team that we
8451s anticipated coming into the playoffs
8453s more of a force to be reckoned with they
8455s they finally ride at the ship they say
8457s okay you know what happy on sojourn good
8459s Kev sir improved his creeper
8461s performances compared to what we saw
8463s yesterday and they very much found their
8465s stride but there was only one player of
8468s the match after all and that of course
8469s has to go to happy I think so I think
8472s it's just well played across the entire
8473s uh series and I think even for some
8475s other members and start the helium tools
8477s and like campuses they look a bit better
8479s shoes uh kariko definitely looked a lot
8481s better towards the end oh yeah uh it's
8484s been happy I mean you can see him from
8486s the early highlights on Oasis guess what
8487s those other guys didn't show up on the
8489s snap happy dead despite Glady is I think
8491s getting quite dipped on Oasis to be
8493s quite bare pampi was a one minute to
8495s keep it alive nine out of 16 final blows
8498s easily uh deadlifting for his team even
8500s though they lost and now when you look
8502s at the other highlights the other Maps
8504s sought to see his impact I mean the
8506s final blows the first Bloods everything
8508s he's been doing whether he's got the
8509s overclock or not but even on Esperanza
8512s as well where he's just finds these
8513s critical shots and his critical kills
8515s and that one trade sequence when it
8517s looks like Fusion of finally winning a
8519s fight guess what happy when Glides are
8521s down he still just kills the fusion
8523s support line by himself no issues
8526s unbelievable performance and this is
8528s exactly why as well we were so kind of
8530s boggled in the mind about what was going
8532s on with the the juggling of the two DPS
8534s players sometimes happens with surgeon
8536s sometimes he's a Reaper cam says playing
8538s both the heroes as well I think clients
8540s have figured it out I don't know why it
8541s took them the song to figure it out but
8542s happy is your soldier play he's got far
8545s more experience far more time with this
8546s hero far more consistent on his hero and
8548s the first Bloods and stats proven
8551s that they do I mean what a turnaround
8553s performance from everybody on the
8554s Gladiators is very much worth saying
8557s because I mean everybody looks
8558s completely out of sorts yesterday funny
8560s Astro wasn't finding good timing to the
8562s sound barriers they weren't being able
8563s to play off the back of those the
8564s Kitsune rushes were falling shy that
8566s this was very much just I I think we can
8568s now say that yesterday was a bit of a
8571s London performing incredibly well and we
8573s Gladiators just being off this was them
8576s fully turning up this was them showing
8579s the performances that we have come to
8580s expect from these players from this team
8582s they look damn good but their work
8584s obviously is not done yet they will have
8587s to play again tomorrow against whoever
8589s wins our next series which is still
8591s going to be two formidable uh two
8593s formidable opponents in their own right
8595s because oh boy we've got the San
8598s Francisco shock going up again
8603s this one's Gonna Be Wild I just hope
8605s that both teams can come out here and
8607s perform at their absolute best give me
8609s that five mapper we felt just shy of the
8611s Mark here on it in this first series of
8614s the day we can get the five in the
8615s second I'll be damn happy but we're
8617s gonna go to a quick little break here
8619s the desk will break down the action from
8620s our first elimination series of the
8622s playoffs and then we will return for
8624s that incredible rivalry match up the
8626s Shockers the dragon so don't go anywhere
8629s sorry

8904s welcome back everybody to game break I'm
8906s Danny Lim here joined by player of the
8908s match happy just uh getting the win
8910s against the Philadelphia Fusion happy
8912s congratulations on the win now I gotta
8915s first start off asking you know
8916s yesterday uh you guys had a you know
8919s unfortunately you guys lost the London
8920s Spitfire but you guys look to be
8922s improved today so uh what sort of
8924s adjustments did you guys make coming
8926s into today's match
8929s um
8941s [Music]
8949s [Music]
8953s oh all right I don't think happy is
8956s hearing me happy do you do you hear me
8959s hello
8960s Maybe
8965s nope
8967s hello
8973s happy
8976s all right sorry guys all right sorry
8978s guys I'm so sorry guys um we're having
8980s some technical issues so we're gonna go
8982s back to the break so we take it away
8985s so much Danny we tried we tried is that
8989s he tried yeah we might come back to that
8992s one a little later definitely uh Gonna
8994s Keep on at it thank you so much Daddy uh
8996s let's talk about the match we just got
8999s to witness the Gladiators did end up on
9002s top but looked a little scary there at
9004s the very beginning however reinforced I
9006s mean heading into this match there was
9008s just one wish on your list and that was
9011s uh to actually see happy on that sojourn
9014s and that's what you got that's what I
9016s got and it worked out for the LA
9018s gladiers obviously I'm not going to
9019s print the tent that that was like the
9020s entire thing like oh my God they swapped
9022s the players and like oh my god it worked
9024s but no it did help the consistency and I
9026s think we can both agree that capster did
9028s play well on the reaper overall and
9030s happy on that sojourn this is what we
9031s like to see him on and he has some real
9033s impact moments on that hero but to kick
9036s things off Jaws I mean we saw the
9038s Philadelphia Fusion come out and win the
9039s first map this is a roster that improved
9041s himself they look pretty good
9042s considering you know they're relatively
9044s poor performance Spitfire that was a
9046s good toss Johnny I like that
9048s no it was good um look it it's I think
9051s it's a bit strange with the Guardians
9053s coming into this matter because you
9054s don't really you don't really have too
9055s many questions about shoe and funny
9057s ashra in the back line playing kiriko
9058s and Lucio that's kind of you'd expect
9059s you to be an absolute God gamer on that
9061s pick
9062s um how's your show just like exceptional
9064s level performances of the Caraco but you
9066s know maybe with a slower start there
9068s although I don't think the peak of the
9070s hero has been reached of course but it
9072s was a bit of a question with uh kepster
9073s and happy but just getting happy on a
9075s hit scan role like sojun who starts off
9077s a lot of fights and sets the tempo for a
9078s lot of games just getting those Rogue on
9080s headshots is uh super important so it's
9082s good that glads find that fitting and
9083s honestly this loses bracket is crazy
9086s like what is this loser's bracket like
9089s no team wants to be playing in here
9091s right now like like Philadelphia Fusion
9093s it's very unlucky that they went out but
9094s would you want to play any other teams
9095s in here like uh
9097s fans I mean they have to play the
9099s gladiator's first round in loose
9100s brackets yeah
9102s that's not supposed to happen in the
9104s business
9105s uh yeah it's a it's a little unlucky if
9108s you find Awards maybe about the
9109s Philadelphia fusion and what we've seen
9111s much as in this match but also of course
9113s throughout the entirety of the 2022
9116s season as this was their last showing
9118s yeah I mean this has been a team that
9119s impressed us throughout because I think
9121s going into the season we talked a lot
9122s about the rookies coming in obviously
9124s they refurbished there was their fixes
9125s rookie mn3 says but Los Realties are all
9128s rookies coming into the league but they
9130s impressed us throughout with all these
9131s tournaments right they made the finals
9133s of the kickoff clash in the Eastern
9135s region they were the Apec team in the
9137s mid-season man as they went the furthest
9139s further than Shanghai dragons the Seoul
9141s Dynasty and now they go out the first
9142s round in the playoffs obviously
9144s massively disappointing for this team
9146s um but you can't understate what an
9148s amazing season overall they've had and
9151s I'm really looking forward to seeing
9152s more of rookies like zest for example in
9154s 2023 absolutely anything you want to add
9156s yeah we'll probably see mm3 and zest
9159s back again like there's no way if they
9161s don't stick on the Philadelphia Fusion
9162s they'll probably be on another team like
9163s M3 has already shown up to be a very
9165s cracked hit scan player it's pretty hard
9167s to be a correct hit Sound Player and
9168s stand above the rest because of how many
9170s there actually are in the league right
9171s now so there's uh yeah there's more hope
9174s in the future for them absolutely so uh
9176s once again thanks to everyone from the
9178s Philadelphia Fusion for putting up a
9180s show for us throughout the season sad to
9183s see you go but you made it to the
9184s playoffs so that is a win in in itself
9186s now we do have Danny standing by once
9189s again with happy so let's give this one
9190s another try
9194s thank you so much soy all right let's uh
9196s give this a try one more time happy can
9198s you hear me down
9202s all right guys we got it I got it oh
9206s happy congratulations first of all uh on
9208s the win and I just want to say uh after
9211s you know losing to London yesterday you
9213s guys look to be improved today so my
9214s first question was you know what sort of
9216s adjustments did you guys make coming
9217s into today's series uh
9227s um
9234s foreign
9238s [Music]
9257s I think the only problem that we had uh
9260s from yesterday's match was I think the
9263s teamwork there were a lot of little
9264s kinks that we needed to work on the
9266s teamwork wasn't there so that was a
9268s major problem so coming into today's
9269s match we really wanted to focus on that
9271s and to sort of work out our teamwork
9274s better and I think that's what really
9276s helped today and what really showed
9277s today
9278s um I completely agree as well and I
9280s think another big thing for you guys
9282s today what I saw was you playing that
9284s sojourn uh while yesterday it was you
9286s and Kev to sort of going back and forth
9288s playing the surgeon but today you stuck
9289s on that main uh Soldier roll so how did
9291s the Gladiators come up with that
9293s decision to oh ships
9317s oh it's done
9321s tonight
9333s [Music]
9343s all right uh tldr I I honestly don't
9346s really know uh why I have to play the
9348s soldier uh role today but I think it's
9350s really up to the coaches but from my
9353s understanding you know Capstone is a
9354s really good player he's a really good
9356s DPS player uh he's an MVP candidate but
9359s I guess and sojin sort of has to has
9361s that carry potential so I think I really
9364s don't know why I was stuck on the
9366s surgeon roll all right well uh hopefully
9369s we'll get to hear from the coaches maybe
9371s near in the future but happy again big
9373s congratulations on the win and thank you
9375s so much for your time and good luck in
9377s your next match history
9388s all right Zoe back to you thank you so
9391s much Danny thank you so much happy
9392s congratulations to the Gladiators I see
9394s some smiles from that corner of the desk
9396s here it's like happy doesn't know why
9398s he's stuck on that yeah okay what the
9400s hell pick yourself up happy come on man
9403s I love the conversation though you know
9405s without getting too analytical and the
9407s data the data you know but like surgeon
9410s has room for a little skill expression
9411s as well so you know if you want
9413s expressions of that Johnny if you have
9415s uh like carry potential players like
9417s profit on the soul Dynasty for example
9418s proper on the San Francisco shock you
9421s know proper has been an amazing you know
9422s hit scan when it comes to Tracer Reaper
9424s stuff like that but now with Striker in
9426s the mix for the shock we'll be talking
9427s about later
9428s um they put proper on that role instead
9429s because they realize that proper has
9431s more potential to carry and take us
9432s further on that surgeon roll so
9434s interesting conversation as we dive
9435s deeper into the playoffs absolutely now
9438s uh we do want to not quite like go off
9441s the match we just got to watch yet
9443s because reinforced I'd like you to break
9445s down a few plays here uh specifically
9447s gladiators way of punishing the
9450s aggression coming out from Philadelphia
9451s Fusion yeah I think in our first match
9453s against a lot of Spitfire we saw the
9454s like letters struggle a bit with
9455s aggression and being synchronized you
9457s know happy he mentioned the teamwork
9458s we're struggling with the teamwork so
9460s one way to sort of play around that is
9462s being less proactive and more reactive
9464s and we saw that really come out against
9465s the Philadelphia Fusion so I want to
9467s take you through a few fights here so
9468s this is the first one of the last fights
9470s on Oasis the first map rather and you
9472s can see this battlesria with the Winston
9474s bubble is taking space here for the
9476s Philadelphia fusion and dialect that is
9477s they're forced to react here and but
9479s this time they weren't really put in a
9481s position to succeed because they gave up
9483s so much space so mf3 are going to close
9485s things out and fusion much to this fight
9487s are going to take the win on Oasis King
9489s stroll however this is another example
9491s of the LA Glarus playing more reactive
9493s like they're doing some Harry Potter
9494s impression in here they're just playing
9495s in this closet but they're going to
9497s fight their way through this so the
9498s kitchen Network comes out from shoe
9499s before it goes down and then kevser with
9501s the death spell some capitalizing on the
9503s fusion extending into the LA Gladiator
9505s so you can see many times here that the
9507s alligator L.A gladiers they prefer to be
9509s reactive because they acknowledge that
9512s velostria he committed a lot of mistakes
9513s against a lot of Spitfire maybe this is
9515s something we can abuse we go over to
9516s routing to six our third map and once
9518s again put us real he's like Primal
9519s raging you know I'll never start the map
9521s over there so the eleg ladies they wait
9523s for these mistakes to come through from
9525s the fusion the philosophia he's locked
9527s away from this fight then Shu he's going
9529s to drop the kids tuna Rush onto the card
9530s and now when the fusion are already in
9532s an offensive position that is when the
9534s LA Glide is going to react that is when
9536s they're going to capitalize on the
9537s positioning of the Philadelphia fusion
9539s and perhaps minimize their mistakes as
9541s well I think it was interesting Reaper
9542s for Daniel Gladys hero they struggled on
9544s perhaps a little bit right but one of
9547s the biggest Parts about Reaper one of
9549s the biggest mistakes you can commit
9551s is when you're rate forming away right
9553s you go in for an engage and maybe the
9554s engage doesn't work out and then you
9556s have great format we saw Striker commit
9557s the mistakes a lot for the San Francisco
9558s shock yesterday well let's just not like
9561s go aggressive let's stay on our side of
9562s the court and then when the opponents
9564s push into us that's when we'll
9565s capitalize and that's what we saw a lot
9567s from the gliders today I think it was
9568s interesting maybe once they figure out
9570s the team Works they'll be able to be
9571s more aggressive in the future I think
9573s that's a perfect point it's actually
9574s Johnny with the Bell Australia like
9576s jumping in and that reactive style works
9578s really well in this meta because the
9579s bubble from Winston is so important and
9581s if you lay that bubble Down super early
9583s oh you're just gonna get a roll like
9585s it's a lot like Lucio beat or like
9587s support ultimates the one to use it
9589s lasts normally has it coming out on top
9590s and it's exact same the Winston mobile
9592s you can't go too aggro as the Winston
9593s you need to help your team and like
9594s separating healing away from the kiriko
9596s from the enemy team is crazy good and uh
9599s yeah funnily enough when you don't hear
9600s what you die so that's pretty sick who
9601s would have thought
9603s now heading into our next match I can't
9606s believe I'm saying that and people might
9608s be confused now thinking that we're
9609s somehow in the upper bracket at last it
9612s is not the case our next match is gonna
9614s be fought out between the Shanghai
9616s dragons and the San Francisco shock
9618s we're talking two Champions that is the
9620s reigning champions in the dragons and a
9622s two-time champions in the shock and
9623s those two will now actually fight it out
9626s about who will go home and who can stay
9629s and that is that's crazy unbelievable I
9633s can't actually believe that this is
9634s about to happen now I have first things
9636s first in leveling up presented by
9638s Butterfinger I want to know who can't
9640s afford to I guess drop the beat drop the
9643s spaghetti so that's there there was a
9645s joke somewhere
9647s please
9649s drop the Beats not the spaghetti in our
9651s Lucio Head to Head yeah
9653s yeah like yeah that's don't they Jack
9655s the spaghetti I like that what's that
9657s don't Ajax the spaghetti don't age
9658s that's the spaghetti is that what you
9660s said we're too deep we're too deep no
9662s it's not through with Joss what kind of
9663s spaghetti do you like Lucy has though
9665s Butterfinger
9667s please save us please save us some
9669s spaghetti talk do you like fusely or do
9671s you like the shell pasta that's the
9673s question because they're not changing
9674s the screens
9675s yeah I like that from you actually
9677s ravioli is pretty good too yeah so like
9679s if you look at the Lucio headset between
9680s Violet and Legion gone it's kind of
9682s crazy to think that Violet was once
9683s obviously this is like old history at
9685s this point where he was stepping in on
9687s the Lucio for the San Francisco shocks
9689s they needed one and he didn't look back
9690s great but now he's going toe-to-toe with
9694s some of the best lucios we have in the
9696s league and obviously in the world like
9697s Lee Jacob is known as a God on the Lucio
9700s Pig and violet is just kind of
9702s dominating in the stats like it doesn't
9704s matter it's a little bit ridiculous and
9706s you are right Zoe too like the shock and
9708s the dragons being down here is just
9710s absurd it's actually going to be kind of
9711s sad honestly
9712s um seeing one of these teams go home and
9714s a lot of the playing you can kind of
9716s relate it back to the Winston Point
9717s Johnny and the way that the bubbles are
9719s used later B obviously always kind of
9720s better but the Winston Bob was also kind
9722s of key there was actually a few
9723s situations in the last series where we
9726s saw Lucy goes kind of go in with the B
9728s but the Winston was just either in their
9729s face near them or on top of them with a
9731s Winston bubble and
9734s you're just blocking off the entirety of
9735s the sound bar and if you don't get it on
9737s like your people like your surgeon your
9739s Reaper you get dominated like there's no
9741s if and or butts about it you will get
9743s focused out like super quick so getting
9744s good timings on the beats and like
9746s forcing out bubbles and destroying them
9747s and stuff like that is like what you
9749s need to be looking for right now if you
9750s lose here yeah and I mean uh the good
9752s news is both of those teams at the
9753s talent is there so let's see who can
9756s make the best use of it let's take a
9757s quick look at our predictions to know
9759s where the desk is going with this
9763s oh all right all right all right just go
9765s over the shock we are sticking let's go
9768s Johnny I thought I'd be alone with the
9769s Dragons I'm gonna be honest no man that
9771s that flip excuse me for lip alone are
9774s you surrendering on proper U7 shock
9776s would win the tournament
9778s yes and now you're abandoning them
9780s they're out if they lose they're out
9782s sewing I know and I hate it I hate it
9785s for them but also dragons pretty good
9787s imagine how
9789s poo poo you'll feel if the shop lives
9791s right here now and you just or would
9792s they win rather
9794s we don't feel bad we die for them like
9796s all season long it's time to make I
9798s can't believe you betrayed them like
9799s that just it's just proper honestly I'm
9801s betraying like the rest of the shock is
9803s a b so if proper was on the dragons
9804s you'd be like oh left and proper like ah
9807s yeah
9809s all right well but anyway there's only
9812s one way to find out what's gonna happen
9813s that is starting the game the casters
9816s are ready the players are ready we are
9817s ready so let's send it over to Avril and
9819s angelios
9821s foreign
9822s [Music]
9827s and the rest of the desk yes it is time
9830s to go in to our next elimination series
9834s the second out of four here on the day
9836s whether this one's gonna be going up
9838s against the Gladiators tomorrow so
9840s another Swift turnaround for the squads
9843s that's why it's beneficial to stay in
9845s the upper bracket but what a clash this
9848s is going to be the Shanghai dragons
9849s going up against the San Francisco shock
9852s a tail As Old As Time really at this
9855s point this rivalry kind of starting all
9857s the way back in stage three of the 2019
9859s season a stage final that I was
9861s fortunate to cast and it went the
9863s distance uh best of four all the way to
9865s seven maps and uh Shanghai were able to
9868s stand Victorious at the end of it all
9869s the question now pegs is it going to
9872s happen again here in an elimination
9873s Series in a best of five or will the
9876s shock be able to keep themselves in the
9878s tournament and of all the recent matches
9880s you know you bring up that uh that seven
9882s map series and stage three all the way
9884s back then we often get Shanghai versus
9887s uh the shock in these sort of playoffs
9890s Tournament final type of games and we
9892s get them in the playoffs here and you
9894s know if you're tuning in you're thinking
9895s oh this must be really deep we look at
9897s the winners final here not quite we're
9898s actually the losers bracket first round
9900s which is what's so shocking about it all
9902s um that specific win on uh you know
9906s stage three 2019 that was one of the
9909s only two times that dragons have
9910s actually ever beaten shock
9911s franchise-wise the other time was in the
9914s 2021 playoffs when Moon shows the shock
9917s right off the rip and beat them 3-0
9918s those are the two times the dragons
9920s actually beat them crusty eventually got
9922s his revenge of the mid-season Madness
9923s when the shotgun 3-0 versus the dragons
9925s that has been the most recent result and
9927s that was the last time that these two
9929s teams actually played
9931s well the dragon's likely gonna be buying
9933s for some Revenge we'll see if they're
9934s gonna be able to achieve it but first
9936s we'll go ahead and welcome the players
9937s out onto the stage starting with the
9938s Shanghai dragons they make their way to
9940s their seats and get ready to have battle
9942s commence like you say the record not too
9945s great for them but in these playoffs
9947s moments they can get the upper hand they
9950s can go absolutely nuclear in the lobby
9953s just need to see that hive mind fully
9955s come online
9956s and that's probably you know one thing
9958s that has been a little bit missing this
9960s year at times and it's a little bit
9961s weird because when you talk about
9962s Shanghai normally you know they're
9964s referred to as the Shang AI because
9966s their teamwork especially from the 2021
9969s season after dive compositions was
9971s phenomenal was unlike any other team
9972s that's why they had so much success last
9974s year why they easily had that
9976s Championship locked down now coming into
9978s the 2022 season you know 5v5 change the
9981s team shifting from uh you know to the
9984s new base in Shanghai with early internet
9986s issues all that kind of stuff as well
9987s they've had a slow start but it's been a
9990s season of up and downs they did actually
9992s win the summer show down as well but
9993s that was with Boyd in playing the Jungle
9995s Queen they're back onto fake now playing
9996s Winston foot is back for the starting
9998s lineup playing the regular here as well
9999s they can't use who are you here because
10001s Genji has been nerfed and who are you
10003s gave most the success to the dragons for
10005s this year but even without who are you
10007s the other member that has also been
10008s giving more success is lip and as we saw
10010s from the desk early on in the pre-show
10012s lip actually holds the number one
10014s position for a lot of these very
10016s important Soldier stats hero damage
10018s final blows child shot kills and
10020s overclock kills all at number one with
10022s second tide for fewest deaths that's
10024s insane for a surgeon player and
10026s absolutely on par actually forgot like
10029s well saw him begging at the near the end
10032s of his stream when the shock lost just
10033s yesterday the question now begs has
10036s super flown out to Los Angeles to
10037s Anaheim to join in with the rest of the
10039s team he was saying put me in Krusty I'm
10042s ready to play we'll find out as they
10044s walk out onto the stage whether or not
10045s he is with them but something tells me
10047s that uh that's not gonna be the case but
10049s we'll go ahead and welcome to San
10050s Francisco shock all the same and also
10052s see who the starting tank is going to be
10055s yesterday we had a bit of a swap hot
10057s Mikey starting out and then kalluch came
10059s in so one small to start things it is
10062s going to be Mikey on the opening control
10064s map that actually seems like a bit of a
10066s standard thing for shock now right they
10068s like to play Mikey to start things out
10069s within collage comes in for map two
10071s onwards
10073s and tickle shock as well I mean they had
10074s a very intense five map Series yesterday
10077s versus the Houston Outlaws went the full
10079s distance with Houston pull it through at
10081s the end
10082s Dante even on the arrest said it was too
10084s much for Houston and glitch played four
10086s out of five map sister even we talk
10087s about control Mikey plays the first
10089s control map but he wasn't there for the
10091s second control map so I mean even that
10093s considered the shock still unfortunately
10096s could not pull the series too they did
10099s win Esperanza they did win King's Royal
10100s versus Houston I think the thing about
10103s the shock versus dragons now is dragons
10105s lost 0-3 versus Sparks so they've
10107s actually yet to take a single map in
10109s this playoffs at least a shock F2
10113s we'll see if this can be the turnaround
10114s Point here for the dragons
10117s never in our wildest imagination coming
10119s into the playoffs did we anticipate that
10121s this was going to be a lower bracket
10122s matchup maybe an upper final maybe a
10124s grand final of the dragons found their
10126s form but right now both teams suffering
10129s some Hefty losses need to recover yeah I
10133s I think this man on the screen as well
10135s work days today
10137s has got to step off on this Reaper also
10139s because Striker coming on this here that
10141s will solve this is Norton was very
10143s strong for the team even when other
10145s members were not quite flying with marks
10146s when the shock were in maybe losing
10148s scenarios Striker pulls up results big
10150s time in that flank on Esperanza we know
10152s that we saw beautiful stuff and that's
10154s what you need to see how to flatter as
10155s well I have no doubt in my mind that
10157s lip's gonna perform proper versus lit by
10159s the way the surgeon heads up it's gonna
10160s be super exciting as we go up to take on
10162s Lee Jong Tower
10164s foreign
10166s Tower first map here
10171s it's best of Five series who will be
10173s able to take it in the end Shanghai
10175s dragons they have that home field
10177s advantage on the map you could say let's
10179s see whether or not it's going to be good
10180s enough to get through the San Francisco
10182s shock and as you mentioned Striker
10184s definitely somebody that we have to keep
10185s our eyes trained on Striker I think for
10188s the side of the shock you know huge
10190s stand-up performance with that reap a
10191s great timing with a lot of those death
10193s blossoms finding value pretty much
10195s consistently despite the loss and then
10198s of course the chiangai dragons as the
10200s desk was picking them up is lip who's
10202s basically been leading in every single
10204s metric as far as the sojourn is
10206s concerned had the team on his back but
10208s yeah this wasn't quite enough to be able
10209s to get that initial win and had his team
10211s on his back for the Spock series as well
10212s I mean Super competitive I actually
10214s don't think dragons played poorly in
10216s that spot series but they're definitely
10217s oil on the back end fate not quite of
10220s the same you know standard as goo
10222s straight and that will need to change
10223s here as well he'll be up against Mikey
10225s first and foremost yep it is the same
10227s compositions coming on through uh shock
10229s not gonna try anything different here
10230s trying is taking indoor so far shot
10232s wanted to meet them
10238s is Mikey starts moving forward leaning
10240s to the rest of the squad up Shanghai
10242s dragons do have that inside track right
10244s now over towards the point which is
10245s going to be unlocking third but Violet
10246s swoops his way into the back lines and
10248s assassinates Limp from the Flames what a
10251s play from him a violet one of the things
10253s that we were talking about with him just
10255s yesterday with him another one time on
10257s those sound barriers and yeah he gets a
10259s second elimination now he's halfway to
10261s the beat first locked up the point goes
10263s away the shock I mean that's just great
10264s kill confirmation right because proper
10266s finds the rail shot until it puts him on
10267s a 1hp it's not the one shot that proper
10270s gets but it is available it is what
10272s allows behind it or maybe Mike or
10273s somebody else in this case it was fine
10275s but to add the extra damage and find the
10277s final blow
10278s the shock now in control ultimates
10281s coming online very shortly dragging
10283s still have a window to play through
10284s especially if he does that oh okay huge
10287s opening kill proper gonna be taken down
10289s Shanghai dragons occupied the point they
10291s have the shot Force off the opposite a
10294s couple of them looking like they were
10295s gonna go off the side of the map I think
10296s it might have been and take me back in
10298s either way does die into the end the
10300s cleanup is Swift It's relatively clean
10302s here from the side of the Dragons they
10304s pick it up they get the flip 29 for the
10306s shock incredible kill coming through
10307s he's yucky really setting the stage
10309s recently named support roll star as well
10312s the 2022 regular season
10314s Roofing is worth it but it is still
10316s vital who playing the first ultimate is
10319s it going to be a temperament you might
10320s want to save this one Victory dead
10321s didn't flammal by the way
10322s oh
10324s yeah taking down no problem to be found
10326s like he does get traded by Blood but
10328s there's so much more than that if they
10329s want to be able to turn the tide to this
10331s then he's online he's gonna dive in with
10333s it the flip has come through from the
10334s side of the shot but now it's gonna be
10335s the rush committed to the fight as well
10339s of HP remaining on that getting help he
10342s does stay alive for a little bit longer
10343s and straighteners incredible slippery
10345s I don't like it should have died well
10347s before that but now Primal comes in
10349s strike against the dead Blossom across
10350s and they look at the whole this point
10352s not get them flipped back over to the
10353s dragons
10354s that's the beat taken away the final is
10357s out here from the face that's off the
10359s side of the map I do believe either way
10361s cleave down might have found the kill
10362s like he himself will also be eliminated
10364s but now proper he's got his overclock
10366s ready to go the beat comes in from
10368s Legion in exchange Fate's gonna be taken
10370s down the head shot looking good looking
10372s for a bit more dragons in the meantime
10373s they sneak the point away where's left
10375s shock they're still in a rough position
10376s they need fake to enjoyable very quickly
10379s overclock again from left gets the body
10381s counter on a violence knock himself in
10383s the kill and Limp gets shut down Striker
10385s moves up right into his face finds the
10387s kill Point still held by the dragons 42
10389s taking up iziaki playing forward here
10391s trying to keep alive as he leads to the
10393s sides and we'll both go down the shock
10395s once more we'll regain control huge
10398s shutdown lip going down mid overclock
10399s that's everything you need the San
10401s Francisco shot will maintain control 70
10403s and still climbing the Shanghai dragon
10405s is to try to keep that one alive with
10407s face Primal after two members went down
10408s Legion left died in that fight very
10410s early on so no sound barrier no
10412s overclock until they could come back in
10414s by the time they did come back him as I
10417s mentioned lips shut down Legion did keep
10419s the team alive for a little bit longer
10420s but no fire and power there San
10422s Francisco shocked now looking for that
10423s double sound barrier plus katuni Rush
10426s combo yusiaki has it legal does not
10428s anything oh yeah doesn't have anything
10431s he's completely is utterly destroyed
10433s Violet drops the beat and the Russians
10435s haven't missed the argue for the damage
10436s he's not really being found right now
10437s the HB bars on the side of the shot
10438s relatively strong that's far push into
10440s the corner gone low gets picked off but
10443s it gonna be taken down as well and
10444s there's nothing more that lift can do so
10446s I'm getting shut down even with the
10448s overclocking in hand the final pop here
10450s for proper doesn't have any more targets
10452s there's a I'm over here and we'll go
10454s ahead and take it down 146 percent yeah
10456s dragons I mean a really nice extended
10458s fight to get themselves back in control
10460s of the point briefly the shock retake
10462s and they don't let go 75 charged shot
10465s accuracy proper over the course of that
10467s round band and a brilliant two-piece
10468s towards the end that gets the kills
10470s required a first one into Lee Jay gone
10472s denying flutter from using the death
10474s Blossom as well he kills Planet when
10475s he's on 99 he was the only member left
10477s that could maybe still clutch up for the
10478s dragons at that 4v5 a lot of low HP
10480s members would have flitter pops off on
10482s the death Blossom that could save the
10483s point but unfortunately for them proper
10486s is there to shut him down a shock have a
10489s 1-0 lead so far on the opening map on
10491s Lee's young Tower looking over towards
10493s control center now still the same comps
10495s yesterday we did see some variation a
10497s little bit of Ryan coming on through
10498s that was from the glass
10501s possibility of maybe playing a recipe
10503s here as well but for these two teams
10504s here we're gonna stay true to what the
10506s meta is let's see who defines it
10514s okay here on control center
10518s we will agree
10520s able skirmishing now opening up Mikey
10522s chunks down about half HP
10524s rail shot goes across right here tagged
10527s low takes the race walk out
10529s and move away from the point which is
10530s now unlocked Shanghai dragons inside
10532s track there might be able to get the
10533s lockdown now with Mikey falling
10535s certainly looks a hell of a lot better
10536s for the rail from Robert as well not
10538s going to get the connection they're
10539s looking forward to find the kill but it
10541s goes Sports looking for a kill but
10542s Striker
10552s I think that's super important as well
10554s because the shock we're gearing up to be
10555s able to maybe get that fight before as
10558s Mikey comes back up on life but it goes
10559s down you know some reason flooded dinos
10561s because they traded aggler right fate
10562s initially had the eggo who's too low he
10564s jumps back flitter tries to hold the
10565s front line can't do it forever goes down
10567s announcement into the next fight to
10569s support up but it's about to come along
10570s easy hockey leads
10572s again
10575s lip starting to look alive finds the
10578s shot pilot going to be good for stopped
10580s out of there
10581s this little Chase making sure that Lucio
10583s can't knock keep his life intact the
10585s kill slip goes on the plank looks for
10587s the shot he's got striker in the head as
10589s well as van is just gonna go tumbling
10590s and Shanghai dragons look very well in
10593s control for now great staggered kills
10595s there just allowing the shock even
10596s further as proper comes up alive two
10598s extra members go down
10600s another consideration from the Shocker
10602s they've got to try to try and just break
10603s through front doors here through the
10604s choke they'll need the katsune rush to
10606s do so double support ultimates of the
10607s live online for both teams Mikey like in
10610s the playable
10611s oh my God
10613s and he gets him ahead of the sound
10615s barrier as well crucially what a pick
10618s lift
10620s absolutely crushing it right now here on
10622s control center
10623s overclock still gonna be held that was
10626s just the Kitsune Rush committed to the
10627s fight to go ahead and get the win now
10628s it's 70 last fight territory here for
10630s the dragons they can win this one out
10631s they should be taking this over the
10632s garden so many first blood so high
10635s impact as well and another one that's
10636s three first ones in a row
10638s and he still hasn't even had to use the
10641s alt he keeps it in his pocket proper as
10643s well not getting the opportunity to try
10645s to use his overclock brunch goes out
10647s from Ben that Blossom dropped in Striker
10649s will find bait all right as the Primal
10651s Flyers make their way over the point now
10653s he's looking desperately for the flip
10655s the beat gonna be layered in for the
10656s Shanghai dragons but again the shutdown
10658s is there Mikey gets on top of left he
10660s finds that kill and that certainly gives
10661s them a chance to go ahead and gain
10663s control and maybe still win out this
10665s round
10665s close-up comes through there's the flip
10667s at 99 percent San Francisco shot with
10670s one old can they hold it's extremely
10671s important that Mikey does that because
10673s if lip is going demon mode the way that
10674s shy was doing up against the Dallas feel
10676s Fearless shut down shy here Mikey has to
10679s shut down lip in the same way he does
10682s that when lip overclocks but three first
10684s bloods in her lip in a rope for lip
10686s outstanding stuff puts dragons at 99
10688s forces shock to come back from zero to
10691s 99. draw for now this time has the other
10693s block he needs the same impact
10701s just magnetized these rails to his head
10704s that's bought the fight too and that's
10706s gonna be the round done and Dustin has
10707s been to last one to fall no chance to
10709s stagger this one out Striker's still so
10711s very far away so the OT will just tick
10713s down and we are going to Gardens man to
10716s settle this first map this is Lee Jake
10719s on stomping grounds and I'd start being
10721s a little bit worried if I was shocked
10723s well the thing about Shanghai dragons is
10725s everywhere is apparently the stomping
10727s grounds for lip talked about the stats
10729s for lip on the surgeon earlier on number
10731s one leading in all the most relevant
10734s stats that you want for a play I mean
10736s outstanding and then he backs it up
10737s straight away versus proper versus
10739s Striker especially who died multiple
10741s times to let the only time that shock
10743s really found success was when Mikey just
10745s jumped on top of him killed them removed
10747s the overclock that was the one fight for
10748s the shock one take a look at some of
10750s these again
10753s lip is able to do here I mean you're
10757s just looking at you're following the
10759s Royal shot coming on through and as you
10761s mentioned live during the castle Striker
10763s dies just before the sound barrier
10766s catches them to give them that green HP
10775s the guard and see who's walking away
10777s with the win
10779s the rail is charged shocked hiding back
10782s around the corners for now lift waiting
10784s for a moment Striker fearing for his
10786s life he is violent yeah
10789s God however we'll be the first one to
10791s fall I thought about his stomping
10792s grounds he did stop by finding a kill
10794s shot this time it does hit Violet but
10797s it's not in the head so it's the second
10798s lease on life see what I'm gonna be
10801s rejoining here as quickly as he possibly
10802s can but looks like shock should have the
10804s first lockdown before but it gets tagged
10806s up and yep they will go ahead and take
10807s him tell you what dragons play that well
10809s though they lost to play Early they just
10810s back on out slow the pace of the Kappa a
10813s little bit and now they're coming back
10815s as five getting ready
10817s I'm taking a bunch of damage here under
10818s pressure Maybe
10821s pulls back I'll pick out the left clicks
10823s as much as you possibly can Striker will
10825s finally find some much needed Revenge
10827s you don't have to put it as well so now
10828s the GPS with Shanghai dragons trying to
10831s persevere the fight the Leap Forward
10832s maybe God's gonna be taken down faith
10834s will find one for his trouble but now
10835s it's proper time to shine picks up three
10837s kills in the fight shock maintained
10839s controlled 30 locked in let's keep that
10841s little lip as much as possible for you
10843s at the San Francisco shock that is the
10844s game plan right now Striker like to
10845s shake up there and kill proper the final
10847s three
10848s shop because I already have that early
10850s lead on the cap the lead will just
10853s extend further with the student rush now
10854s you see how he looks amazing there it is
10857s oh but he's dead they've uh they've
10860s figured it out they found the win
10861s condition kill left first and foremost
10862s and then things come tumbling down the
10864s rush not gonna lead to too much of
10866s anything here they're gone eventually
10868s just gonna fall let's have that beat to
10870s try to match Pilots
10873s and this is the thing right when the
10875s katuna rush comes down for Finn uh Mikey
10878s just gets to Jump On In he has the speed
10879s to work through he knows what his Target
10881s is gives a safety back to the Primal so
10883s if he does get low and he does get
10884s punished he can get himself out alive
10886s very well played that shock learning
10889s quickly after losing our control center
10891s what it is required to take this map
10893s still
10896s sound very basically going to be matched
10898s violence a little bit later Mike goes
10900s into white room juggling limp around and
10902s there is no free for him no hope of
10904s getting out we'll find Violet he's
10906s making a DPS for a support his face is
10908s trying to do much of the same but he
10910s desperately needs some healing Striker
10911s could be taken out that is going to be
10912s the main threat to fate so he does man
10914s stay alive now Mike's gonna be taken
10916s down Dragon sets down in the flip there
10918s in control 86 set up here for the shot
10920s now dragons look to maintain next number
10923s of kills coming through inflated there
10924s so despite lib coming down the rest of
10926s the Dragons come up big that's what you
10927s need right if your big carry player is
10929s gone the rest of the players have to
10931s step up they certainly do with Mikey out
10933s of the pick ship dragons will lead the
10935s length
10936s Strikers are like a sort of mention with
10937s him going down allows fate so much more
10939s extra room to play through a bit of a
10941s catch-up still requires the 60 deficit
10944s flip out clocks
10946s 12 o'clock has popped that sets sends
10949s the shots packing here for the moment
10950s he's trying to Pound Down Violet gets
10953s him at the very end and with that kill
10954s leader got he killed Violet prior you
10956s see the old charge right now the
10958s Difference Maker well out and by the way
10960s that sound barrier
10961s shark is still semi-committed here
10963s they're in white room I don't think
10964s dragons will push this one I think
10965s they'll give the respect over waiting
10967s for Violet to see the silhouette of the
10969s left side so it has rejoined the team
10970s well 5v5 here no it's not Liv takes him
10973s down again
10974s Violet now he's the one getting the
10976s striker treatment is punished over and
10979s over again he's got five percent old
10981s charge in the last 30 seconds that's
10982s just basically God he hasn't gone he
10985s hasn't even gotten a Cheerio to connect
10986s onto an enemy player
10988s did you see lips ping there's like oh I
10991s know who I want I know who I am let's
10993s back on it
10995s shuts them down to consideration still
10996s committed to the fight here by Finn
10998s hoping desperately if they can find
11000s something but izayaki also gets involved
11002s finds a headshot connection on the
11004s proper and that might just be enough
11006s Shanghai dragons will certainly take the
11007s lead now on this map
11009s against violent once again
11013s 28 of a beat in the last two and a half
11016s minutes not allowed to play the game Lee
11018s chigon has a sound barrier now the one
11020s that Violet wants 50 behind one Bucks
11022s yeah Primal available for player so
11024s Mikey rather sweater just goes on in
11027s can't quite get himself up onto the high
11029s ground but it might not matter point is
11030s being content of it out Mikey fighting
11032s too because gonna be taken down Striker
11034s is here has a death Blossom of his own
11036s the dragons have they overstepped knock
11038s off the side of the map that should be
11039s Legion gone dead waiting lady see unless
11041s he's got a wall ride back in either way
11043s the shock have gained control of the
11045s point 90 to work with they might have
11047s just stolen us away the unlikely hear
11049s that Mikey knows his talk he's got to be
11050s the ones killed it but no one else can
11051s do it then Mikey has to
11053s apart
11059s the overclock is popped here by proper
11061s the diving in Striker still holding on
11063s to the death left and getting it juggled
11064s around bench got shut him down proper
11066s finds flutter takes him down for fate
11068s not really being able to get too much
11070s done he's just trying to clear the point
11071s for now gets the shutdown there on the
11072s striker much needed the beat comes in
11074s from violent Shields up the remaining
11075s four members but fate will fall iziaki
11078s taken down left he's got the overclock
11080s but he needs to go absolutely crazy with
11082s it and it just does not seem like it's
11084s gonna happen it doesn't the Shanghai
11087s dragon say over pursue they over commit
11089s they lose the point in the follow-up and
11092s then San Francisco shock it feels like
11095s they steal the win away but man what a
11098s way to kick off this series now to tell
11099s you what despite all of the pressure on
11102s Violet they're dying multiple times
11103s there are barely building all charge he
11106s gets that legendary sound barrier right
11108s at the end when they actually do need it
11109s San Francisco shocking the final fight
11111s that missing sound barrier Finds Its way
11113s into the fight and it makes a big
11115s difference Shanghai dragons do not shut
11117s down proper fate is not able to get on
11119s top top of the surgeon the way that
11120s Mikey is on top of lip and that's a big
11122s difference maker for me because when
11124s left doesn't have that pressure he
11126s destroys the shot but when Mike is on
11127s top of him that's when the shot can
11129s succeed and we never saw proper getting
11131s shot down the same way that lip had been
11135s I mean Violet the slowest buildup of a
11138s beat in the playoffs that we've seen so
11140s far from him but it arrives precisely
11143s when it needs to his beat is a blue
11146s shell lobbed in
11149s when it strikes it's absolute perfection
11151s and it allows them to get across the
11153s line he can already see Clues making his
11154s way out to the stage so it seems like
11156s Mikey's work here is done but man what a
11159s way to start off this set between two
11161s Titanic teams in this lower bracket
11165s matchup one of them is going home for
11166s now the shock have the upper hand with a
11168s 1-0 lead Shanghai dragons have map pick
11170s on hybrid don't go anywhere because I
11172s mean if you were paying any attention
11174s whatsoever you know that you do not want
11176s to miss the rest of this action

11396s doesn't strike twice has never met the
11399s San Francisco shocks
11402s just a depth of Talent on their roster
11404s that can't be denied some of the most
11406s hardcore carry performances that I've
11408s ever seen this is going to be a wild
11410s ride
11412s 's gonna come the rest you get a double
11414s kill until he says how about that one
11417s see you later
11419s his aim is so crispy
11426s mix let's speak on Hardy Frank is able
11428s to bring the Titan down Sir Mr Right to
11431s the back line insta kill him
11433s [Music]
11437s San Francisco the greatest team in
11441s OverWatch
11444s and we are back in just one map into
11447s this absolutely crazy colossal series
11451s between the San Francisco shock and the
11453s Shanghai dragons dragons looking like
11455s they had the upper hand there the second
11456s or the third round I should say of an
11458s unleash Tower Gardens they had it in
11460s hand but they overstepped one little
11462s moment and the shocks swoop in to steal
11464s it away and I think a lot of that comes
11466s down to Mikey you know for whatever
11469s performance he had yesterday he makes up
11470s for it today right he comes in does his
11473s job refuses to elaborate leaves about
11475s luge comes on in seven Primal Rage kills
11479s for my key to the four from fake I know
11482s it's not all about that for you know
11483s Winston comparisons but specifically who
11486s does Mikey kill how does he get on his
11488s targets he gets on top of lip he shuts
11490s down left lip was the guy putting shots
11492s in the dirt and Mikey was the one taking
11494s the shot back out
11497s well a bit of vindication for him
11500s coluge does come back through though as
11502s we get ready to go into hybrid as
11504s mentioned Shanghai dragons they have
11506s their selection so I'll have to see
11507s where they opt to go to and whether or
11510s not they can tie things up because I
11511s mean like we are we have our I have all
11513s of my fingers crossed right now toes is
11515s included uh that this is going to go to
11517s five so
11519s you know again as per usual Avril and I
11522s we don't care who wins we just want some
11525s good honest OverWatch and between these
11528s two squads we should be able to have
11529s that achievement I want the best team to
11531s win at the end of the day
11536s no I do want the best team to win at the
11538s end of the day I'd also like to see just
11540s like just for fun because like we saw
11542s the rhino versus uh collage standoff for
11545s mid-season Madness I want to see a
11546s little bit of back to back with colus
11548s rocking up the lip you know lip is eight
11550s foot nine so we'll see what goes on
11551s there I think they're the the two Chad
11553s games we have in the venue
11556s the Titans on the battlefield on and off
11558s the battlefield I should say is the ship
11561s of dragons now choose I convolved up
11562s there's a map Choice moving forward
11566s just taking a look at past matches here
11568s we did not get to see I can follow
11570s yesterday it was a King's Row that the
11572s shot ended up playing
11575s so Shanghai dragons on their end they
11578s also played King's Rivals so they're
11579s gonna be the first I can build up
11581s players for both teams
11584s alrighty
11586s who can get the win
11589s think about I mean we didn't get to see
11591s too too much of it I guess there was a
11592s couple kills there on to Violet not sure
11594s if Legion got those with you know by
11595s setting him off the side of the map or
11596s if it was just a straight up kill but
11599s you think about that bridge where Toby
11602s used to dominate back during the days
11604s the era of lunatic high and in the early
11606s stages I suppose would be Seoul Dynasty
11608s Legion gone as well around the bridge
11613s [Laughter]
11615s so the flashback's right there uh Good
11619s Times back then I could have Alder was
11621s still uh you do a good you do a good
11624s like nerd voice
11626s and an old one can you do that I could
11629s do like an older like change voice is
11631s seriously it is quite good a Chase okay
11636s that's what that's what the chat sounds
11638s like this is that's a Timmy voice
11646s can't quite line up the second one
11649s it takes a bit low close but no cigar
11651s good rotation from shot go ahead swoop
11653s around the back pit does get picked
11655s however lead Ford finds that kills now
11658s they have a good decent hit but they
11660s have already surrendered away a tick now
11661s lip gonna be taken down colludes he is
11664s following the puck he saw when Mikey was
11666s laying down he is picking it up proper
11668s down low 38 HP remaining for him but
11670s it's under zero pressure for the moment
11673s and this is just a bloody Brawl on the
11675s shots
11677s one coming through that was 5v4 but
11680s guess what you're right calooch
11681s instantly steps on top and left gets rid
11683s of him first fate was also low HP
11685s easyaki unfortunately does not say left
11687s twice say fate does for some time and
11690s while they try and trade proper guess
11692s what they can't proper out deals EJ gone
11694s he slides away from Fate on 30 HP I even
11697s believe
11698s it's a slide and shark will get that
11701s first point cap despite losing Finn
11703s nearly straight away
11706s the Shanghai dragons really overthinking
11708s their positioning here trying to play
11709s this out a bit more aggressively once
11712s more and the objective gets away from
11714s them TP to The High Ground izaki is
11716s going to be first by a fairly large
11718s metric towards this could soon rush so
11720s it's an opportunity for them to be able
11721s to regain control here of the Ford
11722s collus proper slides into the castle
11724s rail at the ready but collusion left out
11727s all of his Lonesome ends up falling down
11730s and that will be a reset I think shot
11732s otherwise the cycling foolish dying
11734s actually disengage well from that you
11735s can see from probably most of the
11737s members got inside the castle collusion
11739s was still stuck outside and that was the
11740s one member the dragons got down you'll
11742s say that's a successful fight dragons
11743s don't get much more out of it
11745s DJ calm down that does not feel good
11748s no it does not expect to find the kill
11750s the overclock is here it's looking for
11752s the shot but it doesn't literally manage
11754s to TP out okay lip will get the punish
11756s making sure they don't find the
11757s follow-up but for now the card is going
11758s to be moving forward by the shock which
11760s are gone in 99 here we'll finally have
11762s that sound barrier available Finn's
11763s still yet to use is consuming Rush
11766s ultimate the shock have double support
11767s odds available now lift the pop is over
11770s no what a shot of violet dead
11774s yep could just do that left I suppose I
11776s mean it really is just like a flowchart
11779s Islip alive yes lose the fight he is lip
11783s dead you know if you win the fight if
11785s you're the shark there's a secondary
11786s flowchart there's is a tank on top of
11789s the level
11790s and yeah if collusion is not on him if
11793s Mike is not sitting on left then lip
11794s just goes off time and time again two
11797s back-to-back first ones here
11800s all right it's just so incredibly
11802s consistent
11805s what a player
11806s what a shutdown and this is slowed the
11809s shock up granted these still have a very
11811s healthy timing for now but they need to
11812s get this cart rolling so they can get
11814s the punish on the lip they'll be looking
11815s good for it all right now it's pushing
11817s down below the ramparts jump in push
11820s away fake trying to get the stop not
11821s even do so the rush comes out from Finn
11823s kalu's falling low pumps at Primal Rage
11825s gets a couple smacks around over on the
11827s lip can't quite get the elimination just
11829s yeah check on holding more people to
11831s join in gonna finish him off Jim is he
11833s going he's still holding the beat is
11835s ayaki nearly with a rush of his elves
11836s the Cardinals starting ready to make its
11838s way across the bridge the Beats to come
11839s in first now from Violet BJ gun's gonna
11841s be matching that Blossom out from
11842s Striker payload eliminations I believe
11844s he actually there you go the side of the
11845s mountain no it looks like you might have
11846s been back in yeah he's working hounded
11848s down what it finds the kill spin dead on
11851s the back end as well the payload it gets
11853s close but not close enough but this does
11855s split the attention of the Shanghai
11856s dragons now they can't play rightward
11858s side the entire time because they have
11860s to be worried about a back cap now
11861s that's the one mistake for the Shanghai
11863s dragons right they were otherwise
11864s winning that fight for the San Francisco
11865s shock we're running away with that
11866s Baylor the cat really Force the
11868s attention of the Dragons these yucky
11869s finally Pops in is Rush ultimate and
11872s we'll be able to stop the shot with
11873s Pluto leading away very fast forwarding
11876s out by shot this problem he doesn't get
11877s away I thought he was about but it does
11879s get punished
11880s Pete has found the script the shot we're
11883s using reading from kills off proper
11885s finally I think gets what three in that
11887s fight it's not four and there he goes
11889s three
11891s clean up once more two minutes about to
11892s be remaining now
11897s hold otherwise from the dragons I mean
11898s look the payload might get close to the
11900s beat Finish Line but if it doesn't cath
11901s out V then it does not matter
11904s as it will be profits turn to overclock
11905s next and the flight can fate get on top
11908s of proper is there going to be
11909s employable in time probably not but you
11911s don't need it you don't need it let's
11912s we'll get the kill again
11915s I mean how do you even approach this do
11917s you just have to use the Souza every
11918s time you push a corner just in case you
11920s get a head shot but no what you got to
11922s do is Striker has to kick over his PC
11923s and swap it out again and then the 20
11925s minute break will weak into Shanghai
11927s dragons that's all you gotta do that
11928s could work that could work all right
11931s that feels much WoW
11934s what a start diving again
11940s with wall riding he was boosted up he
11942s was sliding across and lift just says
11944s now it's an easy track for me Striker is
11947s trying to get on top of him but he's got
11948s no HP so he just dies his fate joins in
11950s holds the door making sure they can't
11952s get on top of him this is ridiculous
11954s this is ridiculous
11957s he can't keep getting away with that top
11959s of the castle
11960s slides and shuts proper down
11963s and lift is just absolutely changed my
11968s mind I changed my mind shy is not the
11970s best Sergeant in the world it's left it
11972s is definitely left no question in my
11973s mind now I've changed my mind it's like
11976s 100 and right now the dragons that look
11978s to maybe even spawn Camp a little bit
11979s here shock might have to burn off but
11981s just gotta spawn
11982s I mean this is this is such a
11985s performance I'm thinking mn3 on that new
11987s Queen straight the town can lose their
11991s way to away and he's just going forward
11992s right now the overclock pop slides over
11995s and just proper misses the shot one more
11997s rail off the back of the alt they're
11998s gonna go wide but he's still managed to
12000s just go ahead and try him down with the
12002s left click gets that kill collusion not
12004s able to do a damn thing flutter finally
12006s wants to get involved I think it's over
12007s what claims the second and yeah that has
12010s to be it Striker Dead one of the only
12013s people who maybe could have tped away
12014s tried to get in touch with the card
12016s instead it is rolling back steadily look
12018s how far back it has rolled that is how
12020s long it has been since they have touched
12021s this damn card
12023s it's coming down the ramp it's made
12026s across the bridge and violet cannot get
12028s there in time what an absolutely
12032s beautiful hold from the Shanghai dragons
12035s the shock very well can turn around bull
12037s hold this and still win the map but that
12038s takes nothing away from the efforts of
12041s lip on this defense he absolutely
12043s dominated at every twist and turn I mean
12046s this level of control on a game a single
12050s player
12051s single-handedly dictating how the game
12054s is going to be played by sheer force of
12056s will
12058s this is the 2021 Finals MVP player lip
12061s coming in
12063s and he does not want to finish things
12065s again he would like to win here and
12066s continue on
12067s after day one after they lost the
12070s Hangzhou Spark
12072s lip puts out onto what he says I don't
12074s want finish now verbatim those words I
12077s don't want finishing out they lose the
12079s 100 spot the lip says no it does not end
12081s here my season does not end here and
12084s he's coming in versus shock today and
12086s pulling that level of force through now
12088s on to San Francisco this is the rage
12090s pent up from that hunger spark loss
12093s now shock of feeling it
12096s God damn well can we get an update Mr
12099s Avril share with us one of your fun
12101s facts here in a moment as far as lip
12103s statistics because it feels like he's
12105s got to be deadlifting uh
12108s uh 10 out of 26 10 out of 26. he's a few
12112s more to be fair I think that speaks well
12114s to the rest of the team being able to do
12116s some stuff here I can say he is the only
12118s player in the server with 10 000 plus
12121s damage per 10. everybody else is well
12123s below ten thousand uh the next highest
12125s is proper 8.8 so lift is clearing part
12128s proper by about 2k because Little's on
12130s 10.8 versus 8.8
12132s there's that 70 percentage about like 70
12135s accuracy
12138s all right well let's see what that looks
12140s like at the end of the map
12141s and Shanghai make their way over the
12143s point Legion gonna be the first one to
12144s fall proper able to find the kill rail
12146s does connect but Violet avoids taking it
12148s to the face so stay safe proper sliding
12150s back over towards the attacker spawn now
12152s does find a second elimination turns the
12154s sides over towards face you need to
12156s break down the bubble but fade by two
12157s that's cool
12158s violet Under Fire leading comes back
12161s into the fight matches to find the
12162s elimination of Shanghai dragons might
12164s still yet be able to get the cap and
12165s they will AJ gone picks up a second this
12169s is right here next to proper finishes
12171s them off
12172s and there you have it the Cap's gonna be
12174s coming through unless they go for a
12175s cheeky last second and by the way
12176s collusion he's just gonna situate
12178s himself on The High Ground let's take a
12179s look at the time 5 26 to get where part
12181s way through b I think they do need to
12183s push the end to be so say part way it's
12184s actually to the end it looked like part
12187s way because by the time we got to the
12188s end to be the payloader went from the
12190s end of the bridge all the way back to
12192s this first corner
12194s so yeah oh yeah so this is where you
12197s know you do you do give credit to shots
12198s and they actually snuck the payload that
12200s distance they give themselves a win
12202s condition still and icon that's the good
12205s news that's a silver lining
12207s sure at the defendant for about five
12209s minutes so roughly you know what the
12212s Shanghai dragons were able to do
12214s I for one have always kind of had the
12216s opinion that I think that the court
12217s distance should be aware of it that
12218s rolls back to rather than if you've
12220s heard the push
12222s but that's just me maybe
12224s who's now going to be topping down off
12225s the Top bait swapping positions with him
12227s goes up to try to pressure the nice
12229s Blind Side away from proper overclock is
12232s online not using it yet consider wrench
12234s comes up to the Yaki bid matches but
12236s gets on top of profit finds the kill
12238s Finn as well going to fall asleep
12240s continues to find these kills on the
12242s opposing support fit with a primal just
12244s juggling around absolutely anybody that
12246s he can find he wants to get rid of
12247s delusion and he does strike your TP
12249s strike from the front of him then until
12250s he has the right walk away look at the
12252s position this will be final fight now
12254s Violet proper of ultimates collusion
12255s nearly there Striker not that far away
12257s as well for the Shanghai Dragons It's
12258s lip time getting on high gun overclock
12260s ready Crawford result on the opposite
12262s end this is gonna be overclock battle to
12263s decide it legon desperately needs to
12266s speed as well payload is nearly there
12268s one last shot
12275s needs to find some value he needs to
12277s find picks
12278s damn soon flies around the side he spots
12282s left the rails go out collusions after
12283s the alley-oop he gets on top of lip
12285s right as the rail connects managed to
12286s find that kill
12293s desperately trying to get himself out of
12295s here scraps the health pack and I mean
12297s he's just so very elusive when he wants
12300s to be
12301s wolves that frog life intact but still
12303s three minutes I'll tell you what these
12306s are gone yeah okay okay Violet took a
12308s rail shot from him wasn't a headshot but
12310s the close matches lip got the first shot
12312s off and if he had killed Violet there no
12314s sound barrier Shanghai might cap Violet
12317s was so threatened by that one rail he
12319s pops feet almost instantaneously doesn't
12321s want to lose it doesn't want to die and
12324s also I respect the dangerous spot to be
12325s in
12349s [Music]
12355s you absolute Madman
12358s the shock they completely lose sight of
12360s the objective in Legion says thank you
12363s very much grabs the card slides it into
12366s the wind and that is a tilter the way to
12370s lose a map we are tied up one to one oh
12372s my God shades
12376s of mid-season Madness finals the payload
12379s just caps and the Shocker nowhere to be
12381s found
12385s he just sneaks it through and the shark
12388s don't even realize unbelievable finish
12391s that's wild
12393s they get so tunneled in saying we need
12396s to take the fight we need to get some
12398s picks to buy more time off this time
12401s bank that they completely forget about
12403s the objective itself
12405s and that is definitely a feels bad
12408s moment for the shock but they are still
12411s in this it is now tied up one to one
12413s Chuck we'll once again have a map pick
12415s as we get heading into escort see where
12418s they want to go and whether or not
12420s they're going to be able to recover from
12422s this loss
12423s all I know is I'm all about it what an
12427s absolutely
12429s can I say I'm gonna say bat map
12431s from these two teams I'm fully invested
12434s I know you guys are as well he'll be
12436s back after the break don't go anywhere
12438s if you leave this stream there's
12439s something wrong with you get checked out
12441s we'll see you guys at the other side of
12442s the break oh man
12446s foreign
12450s [Music]
12451s stepping into the fold a few new maps
12454s too yeah it's going to be so exciting
12456s [Music]
12465s canister keeps pelican in check and
12467s makes sure that he doesn't get close to
12469s ons which is really good awareness from
12471s the Gladiators who forced Pelican back
12473s and now Houston's back backs are against
12475s the wall but Gladiators are not healthy
12478s and they're locked into a fight that
12479s they can't escape in Pelican finally
12481s closes the gap between himself and oh is
12483s it Barrett kills three he is having an
12486s incredible series
12488s usually want to save that sound barrier
12490s to counter the opposing Dragon Blade but
12493s it wouldn't hurt to have that extra
12494s sustain
12496s about when does Yaki want to find that
12497s opportunity especially after the shell
12499s but shouts been used by Doge here's the
12501s rally from last show Houston push into
12503s Newark but it's the sound we have the
12504s last second from on2j that gives the
12506s York a breath of fresh air as yaki's
12509s blade is finally slicing through all the
12510s extra health and you're come out ahead
12513s what's all the resources of the Houston
12515s Outlaws have been expended
12518s they have the Rampage feels like they're
12520s just trying to bait the shock into them
12522s so they can use a rampage and get it
12523s onto the back line that gets pulled in
12525s with that knife there's the Rampage
12528s comes out hits four that's good Target
12530s priority right now is kilo and proper
12532s they take him down with ease a perfectly
12535s timed Rampage from mag
12538s maybe that's what they were doing maybe
12539s I caught it correctly there just baiting
12541s the San Francisco shock down to low
12542s ground to set up for that Rampage and
12544s look at this four horse push I mean yeah
12547s there's no hope for you unfortunately
12548s property kilo straight back to the spawn
12553s we go to the court and it's five on four
12555s for the Gladiators this could be
12558s winnable for Houston the 3-0 one of the
12560s best teams in the league and it's
12562s starting to fall their way glads are
12564s down too no Rider no skewed but you have
12568s campster and you have a dream to keep
12570s this alive the DPS do it all and it's
12573s just over who canceled
12576s Gladiators are still alive
12581s a spy used to overclock super early I
12584s beat from the Titans in fact they just
12585s want to go have they're going to go in
12587s touch the spawn maybe Master gets the
12589s better of tree drone the little Lucio
12591s 1v1 and a spy claims two the Vancouver
12594s Titans they're looking they're hunting
12596s the payload moving a couple of meters to
12599s go and this will just be it geridro used
12601s to be at the last moment of the
12603s Vancouver Titans have done it they found
12605s their first win in over a year they are
12609s now 1 and 13. August 14th was the day
12612s many were counting down to and the
12615s Vancouver Titans can let out a sigh of
12618s relief I mean look Rome wasn't built in
12620s a day and neither is a legacy but maybe
12623s the Titans have started one right here
12625s today
12630s all right
12641s [Music]
12646s [Music]
12654s [Music]
12661s [Music]
12664s the dragons teach us that if we want to
12666s climb high we must do it against the
12668s wind the Shanghai dragons are your 2021
12671s OverWatch League champions that's the
12674s GoPhone overclock triggered takes one
12676s shot beat from Egypt gone Smurf goes
12678s down doesn't need the head shots the
12680s body
12682s [Music]
12684s oh lip the blade comes in fixer hits the
12688s ground aim God joins him who are you two
12690s quick kills if he can come through now
12693s he's gonna be taken down he slapped they
12696s shut him down asleep dirt from iziaki
12698s puts zest on the ground nullifies the
12700s entire Dragon Blade Faith though goes
12703s back in for it fired comes down he's
12705s gonna be Angie for the part will gets
12706s popped he wants he finds shy and here is
12708s the Primal clave as well the problem
12710s blade from fate as he will just scoop up
12712s three kills it's looking for a little
12714s bit more the dragons will wait no more
12716s they continue to stand as kings of this
12719s meta
12724s oh boy are we back tied up one to one
12728s let's take a closer look at limp who
12730s just went crazy in our second map of
12734s this already incredible exciting series
12736s what a performance
12739s and if you remember you asked me at half
12741s time for some stats so when we swap
12743s sides there I said that lip had 70
12745s charge shot accuracy which means we
12747s finished the map and he only dipped by
12749s two percent that's insane so the
12751s consistency on his accuracy for right
12753s click is unbelievable only dipped by two
12756s percent after half time and I also
12758s mentioned at half time he was the only
12760s member that held a five figure plus ten
12763s thousand damage uh per 10. by the end of
12768s the map he finished on 9778 so he dipped
12772s a little bit but he was still the only
12774s member almost at 10K at the end with
12776s everyone else definitely trading behind
12777s he was still the only member above 10
12780s 000 on total damage done though so he
12782s ended up with 31 of the team damage 10
12784s 186 nobody else in the entire server not
12788s any of the other nine players reached 10
12790s 000 total Damage Done only left
12793s all right well in case you just recently
12795s tuned in because you saw Twitter
12797s exploding or whatnot uh let's go ahead
12799s and take a look at how that map 2 lost
12800s in case you didn't get to see it and
12802s also maybe just rub some salt in the
12803s wounds from some of the shock fans out
12804s there because I'm sure they're going to
12805s want to turn away in a moment Lee Jay
12807s gone
12808s with the back cap just go ahead and take
12811s this one right out from under the nose
12812s of the shot
12815s and let's see how he does and by the way
12816s his survivability has been circled we
12817s commented about how much he just gets
12819s away he notices no one's on payload he's
12821s like oh look at this
12822s is that a free payload
12824s Omega LOL it indeed is in the shock
12826s realize far too late collage sees it
12830s doesn't have the capability on the
12832s payload and Legion Smiles all the way
12834s from down the end you see it he loves he
12836s knows that he just won the map for his
12838s team
12840s well what a way for the second map to go
12844s down now again shock have them pick in
12848s their pocket for escort we'll see where
12850s they want to take us and whether or not
12851s it's going to work a tree because again
12852s they need to be able to bounce back but
12854s we do also have a new base for the
12857s playoffs coming out here for the side of
12859s the shock as kilo will be subbing in for
12861s Striker
12862s very curious I I wonder what this is all
12865s about because Striker comes into the
12867s rust of late this season
12869s and replaces both kilo and Sam and he
12873s kind of takes at the time proper's hero
12875s of Tracer to allow them proper to go
12877s over towards sojin so with kilo coming
12879s back in is kilo here to play a Reaper or
12882s is he going to play his Soldier pick
12883s again because kilo has spent the most of
12885s the year playing the hit scan playing
12886s the sojin which prophet currently has if
12889s kilo is just here to play the reaper
12892s what does that mean okay actually this
12894s answers a lot of questions because we
12895s got a circuit Royale it's double hit
12897s scan kilo wouldn't make it proper sojin
12900s that's the game plan glued Sigma
12901s obviously I actually we talked about
12903s this yesterday uh Houston versus Shark I
12906s did mention there was this kind of extra
12907s Ace up the sleeve for the San Francisco
12909s shot where coluge his best hero segment
12912s that's a signature hero he probably is
12914s one of if not the best signals that we
12915s have in the league this is a very good
12917s matchup for him and by the way dragons
12918s did not make a substitution there's no
12920s void here dragons will not match Sigma
12923s they're gonna stick to the Winston
12925s [Music]
12926s well let's see what happens circuit
12929s Royale I think this may be the first
12930s time that we've seen it in the playoffs
12931s if memory does serve
12934s so a bit of a different little bit of
12936s scenery for us for the escort map spent
12939s a lot of Route 66. uh that's been
12942s showing up some Dorado in that mix as
12943s well
12947s [Music]
12948s how these teams fare it's gonna be
12950s personally attacked with the Shanghai
12951s dragons the San Francisco shock is set
12953s up for the defense he already mentioned
12954s the Widowmaker proper's got it right
12956s there
12958s well one of them will have it I expect a
12959s kilo to plant given that uh sojourn has
12962s been mainly proper's other hero but uh
12964s maybe some viewers a little bit confused
12967s as to why proper is playing whatever
12968s maker he has wanna make it as hero pool
12970s he played a lot in contenders over the
12972s two years uh plus he was on O2 blast
12974s alongside Keeler by low who was his
12976s teammate so he's going to be the one
12978s picking up that role now as kilo fills
12980s in for the soldier that is quite curious
12981s but you know what I'm here for it we're
12983s gonna take our surgeon players off that
12985s hero and now onto automaker you saw how
12987s good luck was on sojin now let's see on
12989s the water maker as well
12995s one shot only
12998s seems like this like there's gonna be a
13000s lot of stock put into fleta on that
13001s Genji to be able to get on top of proper
13003s and find the punish
13004s let me get some cheeky deflect headshots
13006s coming through
13008s the barriers come up yeah I mean
13010s Shanghai I mean they have the full idea
13012s of what the shock is running but they
13014s are not down the party they don't want
13016s to try to match this I gotta say as well
13018s with this cop teams do I had heard
13020s Memories the teams do want to play the
13022s Genji versus Sigma has a maybe soft
13024s counter pick uh dragons don't put who
13026s are you in though and I think the reason
13027s for that is because collusion can still
13028s Flex over towards the Winston if we
13029s claim better again you want player in
13031s for the reaper so this makes a little
13033s bit more sense a little bit safer even
13034s though you would probably give you more
13036s value on the Genji step to this and uh
13039s makes a place pop this first pick off
13043s there he does the car itched up around
13046s the first the second corner I did say
13049s proper nicely peels back the Shanghai
13052s Dragon to wait for Legion on to rejoin
13054s you can see him just swooping across the
13056s map right there with the silhouette
13058s see how they try to pile this one but
13060s yeah I mean also could have seen Boyd
13061s come in to try to match on the Segway he
13063s kind of anticipate that that is going to
13064s be the tank the problem there is is
13067s again collusions and flexibility to go
13069s between Sigma and Winston whereas for
13071s fake he just plays Winston and for void
13072s if he win he just played the sigma so
13074s you wouldn't be able to flex between
13075s both that's the strength of the shark
13077s composition here fake wants to get in
13079s deep
13080s okay well it's gonna be kilo we're gonna
13082s take it down Atlanta
13084s just carbs up three with relative ease
13087s looks like pops goes around the corner
13089s finds the fourth proper dead maybe you
13091s can even get the A's here if he finishes
13092s off kalues he will not that's gonna be
13095s the Breakthrough and the cap on a
13097s well played and live with the opening
13099s for I go to kilo here resolving that's
13100s the badge spawns for a few of the shock
13102s members yeah probably will respond but
13104s you can see the Silhouettes some of them
13105s are still kind of caught and spawned
13107s right now including from the baitlin low
13108s HP has to respect it and leave so the
13111s dragons they want to punish further but
13112s they can't actually attract oh okay
13115s Violet and proper I think landing on a
13117s fake there but it's going to mention if
13119s Dragons got more kills and sharks bad
13120s storms there they would have been able
13122s to snowball this one a lot more
13123s effectively so now the shot could fully
13124s respawn together they can actually play
13125s for side run properly
13128s okay gonna get picked up as well Finn
13130s finding that kill
13133s Ed pushing back out to get over to the
13135s court get improved rather difficult here
13136s on doing what's he doing oh oh boy he
13141s could just go down okay okay
13146s I think dragons
13148s I don't think dragons actually make any
13150s moves while these beside us up they will
13151s respect the ultimate but it does mean
13152s the payload is significantly slow I mean
13154s look at the payloads actually rolling
13155s backwards they've made no progress on me
13157s at all
13158s yeah that hit shot pop over the top
13161s there's the tank on the bait takes him
13163s down low Primal almost online for him
13165s this will be a good amount of charge for
13167s kiziaki just
13169s healing back up that Winston so it's
13170s getting the rush nearly there tacked up
13173s three should not gonna connect it's
13175s actually been waiting for home for a
13176s moment dragons are waiting for Allstate
13178s pushing the payload waiting for all but
13179s he's getting rid of the strikes
13182s we go now okay overclock is in
13184s Connecticut's gonna be used collusion
13185s now can't better get any more damage and
13187s the headshot connects he goes out then
13188s if you're gone drops to feed fifth gonna
13190s be cleaved down Violet dead as well
13192s tequila did commit the overclock
13194s actually to the fight ends up losing it
13196s doesn't find any value nothing Clark can
13197s move forward maybe there should be
13199s enough time here for shock to go for one
13201s there is yes and I think the question is
13203s is like okay well why doesn't shock just
13205s use ultimate staff fin was on one
13206s doesn't trance they know the payload
13208s positioning is not good for the dragon
13209s so they are waiting for one more
13210s opportunity to come back again and they
13212s can force this fight window up from
13213s Violet to get positioning
13216s there it is
13218s right it's used
13221s for the dragons blocks now gonna be
13224s going in gets to pick up Honda izayaki
13227s he can drop down proper dashes forward
13228s and I'm swapping over to the Tracer does
13230s find that elimination kilo going to be
13231s created people to find one bin down low
13233s immortality kills to come alive now the
13235s Transcendence is going to be coming in
13236s keeps the other four picked off and that
13238s should be the upright for the side of
13241s the shock near the blade not gonna be
13242s able to come through look at the trance
13244s out so he's got a bit more use for I
13246s suppose or a bit more opportunity for
13248s that fine immense amount of value in
13250s this in this next fight but the time
13251s bank is still going to be dragging down
13252s that was clutched by the shock of violet
13255s specifically because if they don't kill
13256s Plato once the trance is gone Plato goes
13258s for the play that was the one thing that
13259s was missing dragons were holding the
13260s blade because they wanted to pressure up
13262s the trance they get the trance but they
13263s can't use the blade because Violet gets
13265s the kill so well played by shock to
13267s recover there
13268s and now we've reset payload's in a good
13269s position but the time is not good
13275s Robert with the pulse can he find
13277s anything blade comes in he's gonna be
13279s Legion on his Yaki limp actually who
13280s finds the elimination the proper will
13281s get one plate still held flat up taking
13284s Downs to kill but without him falling
13286s the chance of the hold seems like it
13288s dwindles down recall use Robert not
13291s gonna be able to get out of it perfectly
13293s they find the kill yeah and that will be
13295s the cap coming in so just try three
13297s minutes here for the side of the
13299s Shanghai dragons as they go on to the
13300s final stretch I mean it would have been
13301s legendary for probably to live even
13303s longer there but it probably actually
13304s lives for maybe like two to three
13305s seconds longer the rest of the shocks
13306s show up in terms of respawns so he
13308s actually nearly got that one up big time
13310s for the team it took so long from
13311s dragons to actually get proper down and
13313s they'll think really limit testing there
13315s a little bit doesn't end up popping the
13317s point which is good he wouldn't have
13319s wanted to wasted that
13324s changing the card forward now this next
13326s Corner gonna be another breaking point
13328s for them
13329s like widely though the shock are playing
13331s back
13332s maybe they can even get to the final
13334s Corner relatively for free collusion
13335s just gonna have to back pedal here
13336s sooner rather than later just hold on to
13338s the flux
13339s would be a decent opening but of course
13341s the catches
13342s in that mix the season can't go ahead
13344s and keep them alive through the drop
13346s damage blocks down like a one and gets
13349s one
13350s but against the shielding there from
13352s Legion who had dropped the beat but
13354s still gonna be fit kilo taken down
13355s violence on the side of the map no way
13357s to recover from that one faint excellent
13359s juggle and a big opening once again here
13361s for the shot his collusion gonna be the
13363s last one to get dropped that was a good
13365s delay though 40 remaining super
13367s important conclusions
13369s they gotta get a final fight here comes
13372s back in a win so this is pretty winnable
13374s for the shock if they can get value on
13375s Transcendence lip can go off the lip has
13377s overclocked big fines openly frag
13380s that would be the cap
13382s High Ground Control now found by the
13384s dragons
13385s proper nearly on the pulse as well
13389s so reliable for these opening kills the
13393s whole last map Shrunk the time charge
13396s we do it now overclock is popped it goes
13399s up over the top pit has to pop the trans
13401s okay goes out and then it's gonna be lip
13404s stuck by proper
13405s finds the kill the rest of the team will
13407s follow shot go ahead and clean him up
13409s and clean team Fight Win with 55 seconds
13411s remaining Shanghai dragons now in danger
13413s of not finishing the map I was so ready
13415s for that to be a Kill from lip but it
13416s was just the immortality field but now
13418s changing over towards the reaper as we
13420s head towards the final contest from
13421s dragons and
13423s that's dubious as to whether they can
13426s actually finish the map one up now
13427s because they've run out of resources so
13428s you know I said previously if look can
13430s get a shot well now he has to that'll be
13432s one of the only ways he can actually get
13433s this done 30 seconds and I think izaki
13436s might still find a consume rush and that
13437s will be
13438s the final ultimate that will come online
13440s for the dragons as they once again will
13442s force The High Ground clutch by the way
13444s stays on the Winston he got some up
13446s charged here he does not have the blue
13448s shirt and the karika to play through
13449s though
13455s everybody moves up onto The High Ground
13457s kilo have to touch wrap around the sides
13460s to greet them here touch does need to
13462s come through
13463s two seconds Somebody's gotta get there
13465s okay they barely managed to make it
13466s happen
13468s playing it close
13470s in proper into the back line but trying
13473s to find the lock down there but finally
13474s gets the head shot across little league
13475s on opening kill goes the way the San
13477s Francisco shock down to a sliver of HP
13479s lift rail charged up misses the shot
13482s Finn strikes him down out of the air the
13484s cleanup comes through just in front
13488s Point C is where the cargo rests so the
13490s shock have a very winnable condition in
13493s their pocket here if they can get a
13495s strong push going honestly well played
13496s then a shock especially on B I think
13498s played that b point so spectacularly a
13500s lift a bit to be desired that Shanghai
13502s dragons pushed through with a little bit
13504s of slow down but ultimately they'll find
13506s the frags San Francisco shock end up
13508s vacating
13509s but straight from the first moment to be
13511s where shock come out from the a side
13514s spawns they didn't lose the a cap and
13516s usually you know the a attacking team
13517s would rush up get some extra kills in
13520s that case I think dragon's got the one
13521s but they couldn't get further kills
13523s shock recover Hold Up On The Higher
13525s Ground delay the payload by a long long
13527s time really shaving that time down and
13530s we get to see
13531s really clutch uh kaluge plays in the
13534s sigma to keep the payload locked up dies
13537s allows the rest of his team to respawn
13538s comes back into Winston make hold they
13540s hold strong trance from Finn ends up
13542s working out flip does not get a kill
13544s great timing by Violet on the
13546s immortality field by the way as hard to
13547s stop them
13549s we get towards the end easy architors in
13551s the katsune rush but the suzu comes down
13554s so early I mean doesn't save or do
13556s anything for his team and that could
13558s have been used I think in a better space
13560s to maybe save Lee jig on to someone
13561s else's life
13564s Ben how about a nice little
13567s relaxing play of the piano
13572s try it or yeah try to rip people apart
13574s goes back over to the Zenyatta so it
13576s looks like proper off the rip he's gonna
13578s try to open with the Widowmaker just go
13579s straight to the Tracer
13581s stop the pain which is interesting
13583s because the
13585s Tracer well actually I see why the trace
13587s is working he's just stealing the
13588s payload
13589s I got a four Strikers back no matter
13591s what happens here dragon is gonna get
13592s forced back
13593s they can't stay here oh never mind never
13595s mind they do kill collude but fate does
13597s go down
13598s there's a cost and now the rest of the
13600s cleanup starts to come in with trying to
13602s escape all right popper is here waiting
13605s counts them down sets up for the kills
13606s here for kilo finds another one and now
13609s things get opened up they find one pick
13612s they lose everybody the cart now
13613s advancing and shock actually win that
13615s they wouldn't that 4v5 or so because
13616s remember profit wasn't part of that
13617s fight until the very end it was a fight
13620s before the dragon spawn camping
13622s and the payload ever so slowly or
13625s quickly moving away from the San
13627s Francisco shock spawn and dragons are
13629s going to responded and by the time
13630s they're actually respawning here it's
13631s already final fight final corner
13636s well built up trying to get flatter but
13639s he just seeks into the corner
13643s he's back on the opposite side kilo
13644s collusion of his old shot hits limp at
13647s the accretion's there for the alley-oop
13648s they find the kills and again it is just
13651s so clean from the shock point a grabbed
13655s over five minutes now for this next
13657s straight I think that's cleanup I think
13658s that's even cleaner than what Shanghai
13660s dragons got on their eight
13662s I don't know go over towards the Genji
13664s which means that Shanghai dragons they
13666s all hold on and actually win this map
13667s their B Point defense has to be solid
13669s now
13670s also part of the reason why lip is not
13672s having the same impact on this map space
13674s with kilo just sniping him here is
13676s because the extra shield the extra
13677s compositional difference it's harder for
13680s lip to actually find these angles okay
13681s you can Farm some energy off the shield
13684s but calculus headshots not much okay
13687s they do get on top of him they managed
13689s to find that punish and splatter has
13690s since swapped back over onto the catchy
13691s but kalluge picks up two of the
13693s stealing off the arc he's made dying
13694s moments before and again it's just a
13697s cleanup basically a team kill his lip
13699s was dead right before the fight even
13701s started four and a half minutes just
13702s about a shock are at the top of the ramp
13704s today only had to use one alt to get
13706s here and they can play full range here
13708s Vita can hold back play for the Game
13709s Matrix Finn has Transcendence for safety
13712s ends
13716s yeah again he's managing to find him
13718s Spain instantly tagged low despite the
13720s sound barriers she'll be coming into
13721s blue jay gone and he's going to die kilo
13723s able to track him as he tries to LEAP
13724s out the safety and the San Francisco
13726s shock are just storming their way
13728s through the street in circuit Royale
13729s that's gonna be a cap on point B and I
13732s mean nearly what five and a half minutes
13734s put them on the final stretch yeah I
13737s think it's done I think this is this
13738s would have to be the most gargantuan
13740s it's a muscle I asked defense coming
13742s through from Shanghai dragons
13745s and they've Fallen completely flat on
13747s this map and you really owe credit to
13749s the map Choice election compositional
13751s selection from the San Francisco shock
13753s yet
13754s as is this the first circuit Royale
13757s we've actually played in playoffs
13759s can't quite remember but it might be
13760s certainly the first time himself seeing
13762s some actually it's not the first time
13763s we're seeing serious Sigma play we
13764s actually got that a little bit of that
13765s yesterday as well but
13767s yeah it's working wonders for collusion
13771s that it is looking well at home Robert
13773s into the back line almost ready still
13775s holds on to it doesn't feel that the
13777s moment is Right a lot of Dash is in
13778s trying to force his position proper
13781s continuing to push straight behind them
13784s to continue to poke his rod
13787s they know that he has this stick kilo in
13789s the meantime does get taken down Bane
13790s caught the Primal off screen not on top
13792s of the enemy soldier but the card
13793s collusion just walking this one in
13796s uh hello there you go
13799s look at the Charlie Knight of this
13800s themselves I have to get in the back cap
13802s but Lim's still going to crumple and the
13805s HP bars right now dangerously low to the
13807s side of the Shanghai dragons both of
13808s them goes into the corner Peyton leads
13810s away up into The High Ground and manages
13811s to avoid the blast colush take it down
13814s maybe a separates of stability found
13816s here for the side of the Dragons It's
13818s still so much time to work with if they
13819s want to win this custom a consuming Rush
13822s ultimate to do so as well probably pulls
13823s into pulse bomb
13825s which is kind of free because you can
13826s just charge that one back up so quickly
13828s and you got dragons to actually reset
13830s shock I think maybe the first time so
13831s far on this entire defense
13833s split it with the blade difficult to get
13836s value here though also by the way
13837s Fitness 82 so there's a very specific
13839s timing window full Planet it's about to
13841s close
13844s like we need to use this soon to try to
13846s force out that Transcendence perhaps
13847s with an overclock they dig on feet to
13849s get the speed up window comes down lip
13852s taken out and he pops the overclock he
13854s loses the old now it's desperation as
13856s planner pulls the place he's looking for
13858s a Target but he's down low the trance is
13859s there kilo the only casualty thus far
13862s lady gone Falls is a Yaki stunned by the
13864s accretion the cart Glides in and the
13867s shock they managed to rebound what a
13870s return to form from them absolutely
13872s crushing their way through circuit
13874s Royale after that heartbreaking loss
13876s over on eichenbola they make it look
13878s easy they now have the lead 2-1 the
13881s series in their hands that was so
13883s political I mean the entire way through
13885s you'll give credit for Shanghai to even
13887s get to the end of the map but for San
13888s Francisco shock the entire attack they
13890s might have only lost I think one flight
13892s total
13893s and the way they outplay all of the
13895s resources coming on through all the
13897s weapons coming on through from the
13898s Shanghai dragons right the blade doesn't
13900s do enough lip gets shut down
13902s instantaneously when he pops the
13903s overclock players consistently forced
13905s appointment too early well earlier than
13907s you'd like to
13909s and it costs dragons you know plenty to
13912s even try and defend them easy ideas to
13914s fall through a continent Rush ultimate
13916s because collusion's back capping all of
13917s this kind of stuff uh San Francisco shot
13919s a fantastic map pick once again shout
13921s outs to Christ in the team because this
13923s one was masterful
13925s yeah absolutely impeccable from the
13928s entire Squad here on the shock now the
13929s series is in there hence two to one the
13931s lead one more map for them to see
13933s whether or not they are going to be
13935s eliminating the Shanghai dragons or if
13937s we will be going into a game five either
13940s way the action does not stop yet we will
13943s have Push coming up Shanghai dragons
13944s have the map pick we'll see where they
13946s decide to take us when we come back for
13948s the break

14192s thank you
14194s and it all comes down to this you can
14196s feel the momentum the fifth season is
14199s coming to an end and it's time to Crown
14202s our next OverWatch League champions to
14206s be back with such a fresh game I'm here
14208s for it for the first time in a damn long
14210s while we have land it has been a long
14213s time coming and it feels great to be
14216s back this is something magical about a
14218s global tournament finally pitting the
14221s West and East regions together
14222s completely different environment out
14224s here Atlanta this is where Legends are
14226s born
14228s I feel like we have seen the ceilings go
14231s even taller come at me bro let's see
14234s what you got this one's for all the
14236s marbles this is the last battle the
14239s stakes are continuing to get higher and
14241s higher it's supercharged with the motion
14243s I can't do it every upset every
14246s tournament every Victory is led to this
14249s moment this is the big International
14251s Event this is the playoffs so you got to
14255s give it all you've got one last
14257s cataclysmic fight
14260s this is the place where mn3 stuck his
14264s flag why did they beat him today that's
14266s legendary stuff was that triple Collette
14269s the Pelican comes out of nowhere
14272s [Music]
14277s all profit sees his fear and dead men
14280s beautiful stuff what is more satisfying
14283s than that
14284s one man army under front one man four
14288s foes of one flip of the point
14293s everybody fighting to the nail here it
14295s is two all died this guy's a real deal
14298s we are going all the way today is about
14300s maximum OverWatch are you not
14309s and we are back the Shanghai dragons
14312s backs up against the wall they need to
14315s win out this next map of push to extend
14318s their series all the way to a map five
14319s if they want to stay in the playoffs one
14321s of these teams is going home at the end
14324s of this and right now shock have the
14325s upper hand
14327s and again you really have to credit how
14329s well chosen that circuit Royale map was
14332s the flexibility I could lose to go
14334s between both a sigma and a Winston
14336s something that the Shanghai dragons
14337s you'd have to pick one of your tanks for
14339s not both
14340s you can't have both fate and void at the
14342s same time and also didn't get to speak
14344s about it much but kilo coming in four
14346s Striker playing the soldier while proper
14348s goes over for Widow for Tracer and kilo
14351s actually pops off really hard he had
14353s some great impact on that match plenty
14355s of final blows even out playing lip at
14358s certain times as well something they
14359s probably struggled to do on uh like
14362s involve the map
14363s and as we move forward here San
14365s Francisco shocked winning that beautiful
14367s Circle real we are going to get off the
14369s escort Maps head over towards push
14371s Striker comes back in as well over kilo
14374s to play the Reaper
14375s prop will be back on that surgeon
14378s and likely that means we're back into
14380s the Winston mirror as well this is going
14382s to be far more comfortable for the
14384s Shanghai dragons in terms of playing the
14385s mirror they can ideally on their end go
14388s back to what was working on ikevalder
14390s which is a lot of actually just left in
14392s the first blood can you do that again he
14394s struggled to do that versus a glitch in
14395s the sigma but lacking that Sigma shield
14397s now that can maybe get more success
14400s [Music]
14402s nothing just wait and see but yeah the
14404s sigma very much through a spanner in the
14406s works for all of the Shanghai dragons
14410s being a bit out of sorts I mean the
14412s attack going decently for them but
14413s couldn't get to the Finish shock just
14416s making it look easy breezy on the attack
14419s of their own but it will be Esperanza
14421s once more as this map continues to pick
14423s up some popularity among some playoffs
14425s themes it would seem yeah coming through
14428s can this be the staging ground we saw
14430s the fusion electing to go to this map
14431s rather than new Queen Street Brewery on
14434s today and it did not work out for them
14435s whatsoever the glads managed to give us
14437s our first Eve the first ever push to
14440s completion on Esperanza so we'll see how
14443s the dragons now fare we haven't seen
14446s dragons on a push map so I found the
14447s playoffs because well they got three
14449s owed by the hunger spark in round one
14452s San Francisco shock they narrowly beat
14455s the Houston Outlaws on us but onza the
14457s scoreline was 86.62 meters versus 86.61
14461s meters so literally just you know they
14463s basically got that last flipping map
14465s ended remember how that happened so no
14467s overtime in that particular map
14469s yesterday
14471s so I think shock don't mind running it
14473s back they're pretty happy with it given
14474s that they had success on it previously
14476s we have no idea what Shanghai dragons
14477s put into the table here and how they
14478s will perform don't get baited by The
14480s Echoes this will definitely be the
14482s surgeons
14482s [Music]
14485s or for Striker to be the Reaper
14488s everything now for the Shanghai dragons
14491s one
14493s fairly new territory for them to be in a
14495s lower bracket at least this early on in
14497s the tournament
14498s now are at risk of being eliminated
14502s cannot leave anything on the table as
14504s they rush out now I think the shots
14506s flying Legion getting tagged up but
14508s wildly's gonna be okay I'll occupy the
14510s Box first and foremost drag is a little
14512s bit quicker though it's shot playing
14513s towards the bridge side and better
14515s damage
14517s you'd pick off and start things off
14519s could that just be the beginning of the
14520s end
14521s still nine and a half minutes of plays
14523s broken so we'll have to just wait and
14525s see Yaki trying to get some shots across
14527s right now he is gonna be ahead of hit by
14528s about five percent but then violence
14530s gets on top and finds the follow-up kill
14531s legally got nowhere to go melted down by
14534s the maid faith will just try to get any
14536s charge that he possibly can but it's not
14537s much of anything at all as proper mind
14540s trips straight out of the respawn doors
14543s once again that headshot is Chris it's
14545s clean and it's devastating and it's a
14547s smile on proper space as well he knows
14549s he's turned on the heat now
14551s putting left to the sword
14553s all the damage all the kills they're
14556s shocked suffered against lip early on
14557s eichenbold has now been turned around
14559s dragons quickly now needs it can test
14562s this payload as one more bite for the
14563s shot can they get the cap and I will
14565s fits up for anybody just yet proper does
14567s lead
14569s okay they go ahead they grab the bottom
14571s can be held with the choke here
14573s proper builds up looks for another
14575s instant execution sends it towards left
14578s takes him low the follow-up
14579s nearly there but he does manage to stay
14581s alive this time around
14584s showing us some of that magic that was
14586s Ultimate but I can probably anyone turn
14587s this already 40 meters set up on one
14589s bite it now overclock comes in proper
14593s finds fake takes him out lip will answer
14595s back with one canceling the rest of the
14596s ultimate a lot more than that if you
14598s want to try to get this Buck moving lip
14599s finds a second
14601s to Third and that's what we're talking
14603s about
14605s The Kills fit will fall final shot pilot
14609s will go down Lee Jacob picks up both the
14611s supports and now the Shanghai dragons
14612s can finally start getting some distance
14613s for themselves no cap for shock they did
14616s not get that first checkpoint second
14617s look at the replay here again Watch how
14620s well protected lip ends up being
14622s naturally down to 37 I just saw there
14625s as everybody's on him he knows three
14627s ain't ready by the way everybody knows
14630s that lip is the target so Shanghai drag
14632s is throwing everything on lit to try and
14634s keep him up and shot throw everything on
14636s him to try and get him down
14637s about halfway to match the rushes come
14639s out on either side colush Parts the
14640s Primal rates are not going to be stolen
14642s away Shanghai dragons need to try to get
14644s back over on top of it to Die For in
14646s here for fake oh man in place left
14648s overclock comes in violence gonna be
14649s eliminated that's gonna be the beat now
14651s out of the pipe for the side of the
14652s shark unless they get along in the fight
14653s but we've been following as well that
14655s should be the end of it dragons
14662s they would rather have him still alive
14664s here but they should be able to get some
14665s good distance lip goes from 3K to 4K
14668s alrighty
14670s should get some decent distance here
14672s they might get a flip but oh wow
14675s oh okay yeah we're back we are back on
14678s ikebola
14680s shocks don't need a contest this one
14681s otherwise it will be the cap the flip is
14683s now coming on through
14684s just up a few tens of meters remaining
14687s here before the shark violets now
14688s respawn
14689s speed required here shot gotta kill on
14691s this payload fast
14693s feels like limp and proper playing horse
14695s against each other having a MAG on cap
14697s gets the shot out of the spawn room
14699s yeah the captain is there the board's
14701s blocks established for the side of the
14702s chicken High dragons but they don't want
14703s to be done quite just yet beats out from
14705s either side death Blossom thrown in by
14706s Striker will find Iz cooking himself out
14708s of there to safety Legion gone now also
14710s in a bad spot down the low on HP Baden
14713s does hold on to the Primal since it's
14715s okay we've got the checkpoint we got
14716s that out of the way I'll just die save
14718s the final for the next fight yeah so
14720s that was a very obvious choice there
14722s from fake given that he was a critically
14723s low HP obviously not Primal would have
14725s been a folding five I wouldn't have
14727s hated them for going for the Primal I
14728s think it would have been an okay
14729s decision but they'll hold playing for
14731s the future fight playing for the future
14732s opportunities here as we're about to
14734s train consume rushes Ben has one first
14736s proper pulls through instantly gets shot
14738s for it now he's thinking about it though
14741s and it takes about a little bit too much
14743s because I'm getting taken down that's
14745s gonna be the shotgun but he collides
14746s [Music]
14748s should be another flip captain
14751s and that's the dragons you know
14752s unfortunately when you kind of get
14754s ripped apart very quickly there's proper
14756s wants to get the same early spawner's
14758s been getting the proper also got a lip a
14760s little bit earlier on
14761s we're actually dead tie it up we tied up
14763s but we do have a capital so dragons yeah
14767s they want to contest they have the
14768s ultimate Superior ultimate as well
14792s foreign
14812s great timing by Violet the sound barrier
14815s will be the Difference Maker when all
14816s rest is sold up lip does not find the
14819s rail shot Violet will push it over the
14821s edge for the shark as we now hit above
14822s 80 reaching towards 19. contestant lead
14825s Dragon builds a sound barrier up himself
14829s violent dead that's a huge pick here for
14831s the dragons
14833s proper still going on the offensive
14835s slides up tries to get behind lip to
14836s find that elimination still has them at
14839s risk bubble comes down perfectly time to
14841s go ahead and block that rail shot which
14842s otherwise might have taken down fled as
14843s life because that mirror has to be used
14845s by Legion to ensure that they win out
14846s the rest of the fight they will do so
14848s cleanly but again gonna be shipped back
14850s but it's nearly a 40 meter Advantage now
14852s for the shot let's take a look at that
14854s early shot coming from iziaki
14856s okay yeah just saw
14858s sends it through or at a long range
14862s barely finds the head but we'll get it I
14864s heard two dinks in there as well
14866s so the midpoint Recaps for the dragons
14868s Ford spawn denied well I'd say denied I
14870s mean it's taken away the smallest one
14872s has been claimed by shockingly swap
14873s sides actually
14876s dragons are on the shock end
14879s dragons will have to spend ultimate
14880s smooth now he burns it but if you have
14884s that Rush they're going to use it
14886s immediately Falls low shots flying
14888s Robert trying to line somebody up here
14890s with the overclocking oh man this is a
14893s brief little clips of Lee Jay gone and
14895s he strikes within that window what a hit
14897s from him fake now popular the Primal
14899s race try to keep them in this one but
14900s iziyaki is all by himself he's got no
14902s one else to try to heal him up and he
14903s can take it down planet now dead and
14905s Striker will claim too they only pick up
14908s about five meters here still at a
14909s disadvantage of 32. the block once more
14911s in the hands of the shock three minutes
14913s remaining and it costs dragons an extra
14916s fight every single time they get a reset
14917s like this
14919s well it's going to go back for a couple
14921s of uh taxiing players so we're not going
14924s to see a ton of distance being pushed up
14926s by shock in terms why people they're
14928s gonna try and shove it as much as they
14929s can but they're not going to increase
14930s the 92. this ends now
14935s they're looking for Value take it away
14937s Primal gets popped by colush try to stay
14940s alive
14944s it's just the witness that spots one
14947s there for just a brief moment but has
14948s not took the rail out quite just yet
14950s just continues to hold it as the bot is
14952s locked in place
14953s Sun's running out it's on dragons here
14956s to move things forward we're currently
14958s getting stuck in shock with more
14959s ultimate here as well dragons need to
14961s build they need a rail they need
14963s something Violet he's got the sound
14966s barrier he's gonna be taken down face
14967s able to play off the back of that shot
14969s proper as well down low 50 since
14971s appealing over his way plenty used to
14973s the death Blossom they fall right into
14975s his trap pulls the trigger on that
14976s cleans up the kills the body can control
14979s to get distance on this push otherwise
14981s the shock it might as well just go ahead
14984s and close out this map now I think
14985s there's split spawns here if I'm not
14987s mistaken Cluj did not get up no okay
14990s they all got to spawn together back in
14991s never mind it's just looking out to see
14993s if they were getting that midpoint
14995s quote-unquote cap in time for the
14996s dragons
14997s but a lot of distance still remaining
14999s here about 30 right so they need a win
15000s I'd say about two flights here
15004s let's try for getting low but despite
15006s the strike they have the ultimate Tempo
15007s B coming up through both teams
15009s if he comes through Rush nearly
15011s therefore he now has it alive he's gonna
15012s pop it instantly shielding take it down
15015s Striker because plus four it's over
15017s towards and the boot comes in they knock
15018s away the dead blossom
15020s for any losses from that one but the HP
15022s bars continue to get shredded down
15023s Violet nearly giving his life to get the
15026s kill on the left but Stills does stay
15027s alive but it doesn't stand a chance only
15029s fights one three meters gain Shanghai
15032s dragons again reset one minute left on
15033s the clock and they'll get the fullest
15035s one here as although at least be able to
15036s take a very quick fight but they
15037s basically can't lose from now we're
15038s gonna head into OT if Dragons can turn
15041s this around and win the map take us to a
15042s man five they gotta do it in the
15043s overtime backs against the wall their
15047s season on the line dragons will be
15049s falling the playoffs zero and two if
15051s they lose this map now and they need
15053s ultimates they need something they have
15054s but control at least there's a shock
15057s start building up for more kalues
15059s looking towards Primal he'll get it
15060s before face
15062s proper he's got the overclock
15066s pushing around the back puts a little
15068s bit of damage there he's tickling as a
15069s Yaki overclock now poppy he swings
15071s around the corner the bubble blocks it
15073s doesn't get the hit there on the left
15074s great timing there from fate albeit
15076s likely heated Gardens hit the Block
15078s they'll take it by the shock and
15079s continue to ship it back to the opposite
15081s side oh my God he gets the assassination
15083s shoots them right in the back gets the
15085s melee Hit List knocked out of the park
15087s what a Play Drunk proper that might just
15089s be game winning Primal does get built up
15091s fate alive the bottom contestant for now
15094s can lose at the same time Primal is
15096s rolling he's got the juggle going
15097s through is a Yaki needs to get a PP the
15099s hell out of here splitter barely manages
15101s don't escape flooded with an unpleasant
15102s not gonna be able to find anything the
15103s bubble blocks it out he can take it down
15105s the beat gets dropped the shotgun
15108s looking to end it please take on a
15109s declaration uses it the rush comes
15111s through lip rejoins the overclock pop he
15113s does get proper they need so much more
15115s he'll find a second does he find a third
15117s slide up onto The High Ground Blue's
15120s still here still healthy the Close
15121s Quarters contents from them the rush is
15123s nearly available he's down to a sliver
15125s of AP lip slides in to keep the butt
15127s contested but he gives his life for it
15128s the cleanup is there the OT pleads away
15131s and then shock have done it three to one
15134s they did 9 the map five and they
15137s eliminate their long time Rivals of the
15139s Shanghai dragons
15141s somebody had to go home today and it
15143s will be the Shanghai dragons
15145s Esperanza goes the way of the San
15148s Francisco shock the early lead they had
15150s has been kept 92 meters and the Shanghai
15153s draggers do not get more than 63 it has
15156s been a hard season
15158s a lot of difficulty in their ups and
15160s downs the entire way through they won
15162s the summer Showdown off the back of void
15164s the middle shifts away from off tank so
15167s which was Winston void can no longer
15169s play in this manner for the playoffs he
15173s already announces retirement basically
15175s after the summer Showdown saying he's
15176s going to go to the military next year
15178s and for the Shanghai dragons as well so
15180s many contracts I'd imagine ended after
15183s being signed his rookies in the 2020
15185s season remember Lee Jay Gone live in all
15187s of them
15188s no matter what happens the Shanghai
15189s dragons will look a little bit different
15191s next year this might be the last time
15193s that we see them as this exact unit
15196s between retirements and contracts the
15198s Shanghai dragons they already won the
15200s 2021 season I mean their legacy is
15202s protected they are the final team took
15204s one a championship and I've watched one
15206s but in OverWatch 2 it just wasn't their
15208s year
15211s no it was not an unfortunate end here to
15215s the Shanghai dragons unable to pick up a
15216s single Series in the playoffs looking a
15219s hell of a lot better we must say though
15220s in this set versus the shock but just
15223s not quite good enough to be able to take
15225s us all the way to five and then try to
15227s close it out proper what a final map
15229s from him
15231s throughout that map of circuit Royale as
15233s well just firing on all cylinders the
15236s dragons
15236s seems like they just ran out of gas at
15238s the end lip still putting up some solid
15240s figures for a brief little Pullman I
15241s thought maybe he was going to make it
15243s happen with that overclock at the end to
15244s keep them in this map but not to be they
15246s get the shutdown in the end and the San
15249s Francisco shock will hold their heads
15251s high as they stay alive for the 2022
15253s playoffs
15255s the man on your screen walking towards
15256s the left caluge is going to be the
15258s player of the match there as well and I
15260s think in some ways you know a big shout
15262s out to Mikey already gave him one off
15264s the back of Legion Tower but it's the
15266s tank plays I think coming through from
15268s the San Francisco shop that ultimately
15269s puts the pressure onto the lip and
15271s that's the only way you're gonna really
15273s shut down the dragons right because
15274s otherwise we've seen what lip can do
15276s when he takes command to the game he
15278s becomes Unstoppable and it has to come
15280s down the Windsor play but I also got to
15281s say this map impressed me so much from
15283s the shot the lose coming on the sigma
15285s yeah I had teased and hinted that maybe
15287s we would see this that maybe they would
15289s even bring it out versus Houston wasn't
15290s to be the case but versus the Shanghai
15293s dragons Boom the sigma finds value and
15296s he absolutely carried on that map and
15298s had a stunning performance on Esperanza
15299s as well proper of course getting a
15301s number of important frags there I think
15303s when you see the final fight coming on
15305s through and proper gets their rail shot
15306s on to let you know at that point shocker
15309s in the driver's seat and with Colusa
15310s back the mud play the match today on
15313s Winston on Sigma they get the 3-1
15315s victory over the dragons and as you
15318s mentioned they stay alive and at this
15320s point they are going to be playing the
15322s LA Gladiators in the next round
15326s statistics versus the dragons I mean
15329s already nearly 7 000 damage per 10 as a
15332s Winston that's pretty damn good he
15334s almost had average two eliminations a
15337s minute
15338s playing this one out
15340s fantastic performance here from
15342s collusion the man's Jack he's out of his
15344s mind and he has helped his team pick up
15348s this win so the San Francisco shock they
15350s keep their heads above the water but
15352s they are still at risk they are gonna
15355s have to play tomorrow again fast
15357s turnaround against our previous Series
15359s winners in the Gladiators and I got us
15361s you know one last I think send up for
15363s the Shanghai dragons just because you
15365s know they are defending Champions a
15366s super important team as well as I said I
15368s think the last time that we see this
15370s specific team of Shanghai dragons
15371s together
15372s um if you know if there was a crowd I'm
15374s sure a standing of evasion for lips
15375s performance again verbatim on Twitter he
15377s says I don't want finish now I know it's
15379s heartbreaking to see that the dragons go
15382s 0 into lip specifically did not want to
15384s bow out this early but I gotta say for
15385s his individual performance he really
15387s gave a resolve he put all the chips on
15389s the table and he performed the best he
15390s could and that's all you could really
15391s ask for
15392s foreign
15397s everybody honestly just playing their
15399s hearts out there on the side of the
15400s Dragons but it's those my new mistakes
15402s that kind of caught up with him in the
15403s end that over extension on Gardens on
15405s lijiang Tower that allows shock to get
15407s back into the point they could have
15408s started this series off up 1-0 rather
15411s than having to fight back and pick up a
15412s win on hybrid
15414s um it's just you know something that
15415s we've seen from them time and time again
15417s throughout the season which is why they
15418s haven't been as dominant this year as in
15420s this year the seasons prior but still a
15423s you know a great series for them to go
15425s on out on I wish that it went all the
15426s way to five but still very much a
15429s smorgasbord what we got from them uh but
15431s GG's to those guys will hope to see a
15433s lot of those faces again next season for
15436s the shock congratulations looking
15437s forward to seeing if they can continue
15438s to run it back that's going to do it for
15439s myself and April here today though uberX
15442s will be jumping into guys through the
15443s last two series of the evening because
15444s yeah we're just at the halfway point
15445s there's so much more action there's
15446s still two more teams to be sent home but
15448s before they take over we'll go back over
15450s to the desk after a quick little break
15452s to break down the action from this
15453s absolutely crazy series I won't say the
15455s word again I don't want to get fined
15456s twice but uh yeah it was a wild one see
15459s you guys tomorrow

15734s welcome back to another game break I'm
15736s here joined by the player of the match
15738s kalush from San Francisco shock clutch
15740s uh big congratulations on the win how
15742s are you feeling right now I'm feeling
15744s good I I'm in that match was a lot
15747s closer than I thought I should be but
15749s you know we poked her so
15752s yeah and you guys did clutch out the win
15754s so I wanna I wanna start this interview
15755s by just asking you uh about the San
15758s Francisco shocks tank subbing Strat I
15759s guess you could say because uh it seems
15761s like Mikey is the one uh coming in for
15765s like when the beginning of the match uh
15766s in I guess math one and then you sub in
15768s after that so how does that subbing
15770s Strat work for the team
15772s uh Mikey he's better at like cough Maps
15775s like the play style on cloth Maps is a
15777s lot faster you need to be more like a
15779s space taking Winston like know where the
15781s rotates are he's a lot better at that
15784s than me I'm more like slower playing on
15786s the pay the payload like forcing our
15788s resources and then going so that's like
15791s the difference in our play Styles and I
15792s feel like it works pretty well
15795s okay so it's just it's sort of just like
15797s difference in play cells and that's how
15798s the events are like subbed in depending
15800s on like mapping the play style got it
15802s okay awesome thank you uh all right and
15804s not only that you know uh this was this
15806s match was your first time going up
15808s against a Eastern region team and for
15810s the playoffs specifically do you think
15813s there's like a big stylistic difference
15815s between the East and the west west right
15817s now
15818s uh yeah I think so I think that the the
15822s East kind of plays like a slower type of
15824s game and they're more resource and
15825s tattoo I feel like the the West we kind
15829s of just go in and we don't really think
15830s about it too much if there's five people
15832s doing one thing at one time I mean if it
15835s works it works if it doesn't whatever I
15837s feel like they they like slow down the
15838s game a lot and try to outplay the
15840s opponent
15842s okay so do you think you think the
15844s Western teams are more aggro yeah a lot
15847s faster playing Style versus the east
15849s teams are a lot slower place though
15852s would you say that that's sort of better
15854s uh in a way because right now the comps
15857s are sort of real they're pretty much
15858s similar they're pretty much the same do
15860s you think going aggro is more beneficial
15862s or do you think it's just the Eastern
15864s region style is better oh I think the
15866s West style is better I mean I don't
15868s think the East is going to do too hot in
15870s this tournament in my opinion but I I
15872s could be wrong I think if you look at
15874s the Dallas play style they're they're
15875s really fast sometimes and then other
15877s times they're really soaked so they kind
15878s of take parts from both sides and mix it
15881s into their their uh Team Style
15885s all right interesting collusion uh
15888s that's all unfortunately that's all the
15889s time we have thank you so much for your
15891s time again big congratulations on the
15893s win okay thank you
15895s all right thank you let's head back to
15897s Zoe and rest of the desk thank you so
15900s much uh Donny yeah I am back with rest
15902s of the desk and we are here to break
15904s down all the action reports
15906s I have reinforced and of course Josh are
15909s joining me to break it all down
15911s interesting opinions here from colush
15913s would you generally agree with the
15915s assessment of place die and a playstyle
15918s and which of those uh might be better
15921s for the current meta yeah I mean I think
15923s that you can't really classify some of
15925s the themes like aggressive and reactive
15927s when it comes to the region per se
15928s because for example like the
15930s Philadelphia Fusion we see them two
15931s times now and they've been very
15932s aggressive but we do have other teams
15934s like the Shanghai dragons for example
15935s that said a bit more far back in that
15938s regard so there are definitely
15939s distinctive Styles Hydro spark is
15941s another one for example they have done
15942s pretty aggressive with usually at times
15944s right so I don't really think it
15945s pertains to the region as much I will
15948s say though that some of these western
15949s region teams like the San Francisco
15950s shock for example especially with Mikey
15952s in the mix they are being more
15953s aggressive and I think Dallas fuel is a
15955s leading candidate when it comes to those
15957s aggressive teams that are finding a lot
15958s of success with that play style also I
15961s mean look I'm biased all right I'm a
15963s super aggressive Winston so I'm always
15965s going to say that being proactive is
15966s better than being reactive but also the
15968s early Gladius they want to match just
15969s recently playing that reactive style so
15971s I'm not going to Crown One Superior
15973s Styles but I love seeing you know people
15975s being aggressive like lip was just there
15976s with the way they're gonna shots as well
15978s man Liv just went kind of crazy in this
15981s game someone tried to carry it it was oh
15984s damn he was he was trying his best yeah
15986s and made his back rest in peace
15988s unfortunately it was just not enough
15989s yeah that was actually insane the
15991s performance lit put up like ridiculous
15993s levels of carrying on the sojourn like
15996s um we were kind of looking at the statue
15998s in the game and we were surprised that
16000s his final blows weren't as high as we
16002s thought but like it wasn't necessarily
16005s like how many Thunderbirds he had it was
16007s more like the impact of them especially
16009s in the icon model uh map it was
16010s ridiculous um I was trying to make a
16013s small point on the kalush
16014s um topic too I think it's really
16015s interesting way of looking at it like a
16017s slower paced star in the Eastern region
16018s western style is a little bit more
16020s fast-paced
16021s um and I'd also kind of agree with you
16023s Johnny like it's you know a little mixed
16025s bag here and there but it's quite
16027s traditional I think to have slower teams
16030s in the East we've seen that over the
16031s last couple years
16032s um and then faster teams in the west
16034s although this meta man you have to play
16036s quick yeah I mean you just have to I
16038s think you have to play both Styles
16039s depending on who is your opponent right
16042s like you you you kind of have to be able
16044s to have that ebb and flow which you
16046s broke down so well yesterday reinforced
16047s like you need to know when it is
16049s desirable to be more aggressive versus
16051s when you want to play reactionary to
16053s like counter it just like the Gladiators
16055s did in their previous match uh now I do
16058s I want to take a quick look at the
16059s little highlight and or low light both
16063s it depends I mean every highlight is a
16065s low light for someone that is very true
16067s how poetic it is but this one in
16069s particular it's uh very much a highlight
16072s for Lee jaegon and the Shanghai dragons
16073s but also a bit of a low light for the
16075s San Francisco shock but I mean shock
16077s they won the match you know I'm not
16079s bagging on the shock here all right
16080s because they want the match you advance
16081s to the next round let's celebrate that
16083s and also a bit of a funny moment here
16084s for to San Francisco joke of course I'm
16086s talking about the legion back cap here
16089s on Nike model so let's break it down how
16090s it actually happens right here we have
16093s Shanghai dragons on the offense and
16094s they're going to try to contest this
16095s card so we can play this clip forward
16097s and what we're going to see is how these
16099s teams are like vying for positioning so
16101s checking out another card right now so
16102s we can see if we pulse it right here
16104s that the San Francisco shock they're
16106s going to pursue when they find that
16108s opening that I talked about yesterday
16109s right on this Winston so you can see now
16110s if we play this out the Shanghai dragons
16112s they're going to commit Earth the
16114s brothers Ashoka got to commit they go
16115s forward they are pushing in and we see
16117s the lead backwards from fate now if we
16119s go ahead and pause right here the
16121s Shanghai dragons they've actually
16122s rotated into the castle flada has just
16125s used the raid form or Reaper we broke
16127s that down as well great form that's an
16128s opportunity to engage but all while this
16131s is happening in shock are seeing that
16132s some things like they can win this fight
16134s look on the left it's Lady Gaga Lucio
16137s just abandoning his team so while we
16139s play this out we can see that shock they
16141s are so focused on trying to win this
16142s fight but Lee Jay gone he immediately
16145s rotates to the card and it's a bit of a
16147s C9 from the San Francisco shock
16149s obviously stating cloud nine that's a
16150s historical theme that stepped off the
16152s card way too many times and earned
16153s themselves a name for it not what you
16155s want to be known for but once again
16156s let's look at it from DJ gong's
16158s perspective they have to disengage here
16160s but notice like the immediacy when he
16163s gets into this cattle
16165s into the cars like straight away not
16167s even second guess
16168s the shocked they're caught off guard
16170s because they're trying to win this fight
16171s and Lee jaegon with a beautiful back cap
16173s this is one of the best plays I've seen
16175s all year because of the presence of mind
16177s there's no hesitation there's no second
16179s thought leads are gone he recognized how
16181s close they were to capping the payload
16183s there on ikeval there and it paid huge
16184s dividends they win a very close map just
16187s because of that small play yeah what you
16188s didn't see actually in the time Green
16190s Room is Johnny flipping over an entire
16192s sofa on top of me that was very on top
16195s of you yeah yeah it was pretty you
16197s didn't see he was in a blinding rage
16199s like pure red
16202s through him literally and he split the
16204s sofa over almost hit the TV it crushed
16207s me it wasn't a good time yeah no this is
16209s totally not made up this is exactly what
16211s happened in that green room
16214s one quick second before we are
16217s previewing the next match a few final
16219s words to the Shanghai Dragons Who
16221s unfortunately are now officially out
16224s they are the current reigning Champions
16226s and they will not be able to get that
16228s back to back trophy yeah it's insane uh
16231s having them go out this early but we
16233s were talking about at the very top of
16234s the day this loses bracket is ridiculous
16236s like how many top tier teams we have in
16238s losers bracket right now like glads of
16239s course we have Shanghai dragons and the
16241s San Francisco shark who thought we'd be
16243s here in losers with some reigning
16246s Champions I think obviously a lot of the
16248s uh Shanghai dragons can Pat themselves
16250s in the back lip especially after that
16251s performance was ridiculous like heads
16254s should be held uh highest it could ever
16257s be I don't know how high you could
16258s really get those guys are pretty tall
16259s anyway but um at the end of the day the
16262s Shanghai dragons they're going to come
16263s back stronger next year you can imagine
16264s it's just this playoffs has just been
16266s disgusting like how much talent we've
16268s had new and old coming in well that is
16270s the big question right will they come
16271s back stronger because in many ways I
16273s look at this loss right here this is the
16275s closing of a chapter for the Shanghai
16278s dragons of course it started with a
16279s horrific 0142 run for this franchise but
16282s they clawed themselves back with the
16283s help of gamsu for example they want to
16285s Stage time in 2019 and then committed to
16287s this roster that pretty much have now
16289s sudden story in 2020 they found massive
16291s amounts of success they won a title in
16293s 2021 but tons of rumors about a lot of
16296s these players retiring now after this
16298s year avoid as everyone said pretty much
16300s confirming that he's retiring to join
16302s the Korean military of course mandatory
16304s in Korea
16305s um so in many ways this is the closing
16306s of a chapter I'm very appreciative of so
16310s many awesome highlights and moments this
16311s franchise and this roster has brought us
16313s here in the OverWatch league and I can't
16315s wait to see what all these players
16316s pursue whether it's in the awards League
16318s or in real life I'm very grateful thank
16320s you so much yeah and that does uh you
16322s know open up room for some new dragons
16323s dragonlings dragon the hatchlings are
16326s coming actually to play let's let's see
16328s how it goes in the next season for now
16329s we say goodbye to the dragons thank you
16331s so much everything Jonathan just said he
16333s summed it up just so nicely now we are
16336s looking at our next match and that's
16338s gonna be a rematch already from day
16340s number one of course I'm talking about
16341s the Atlanta rain facing off against the
16344s Florida Mayhem Florida knocked at the
16346s Atlanta Reign into the losers bracket on
16348s day number one were you smiling I think
16351s it's hilarious that like Atlanta we're
16354s like oh we got swapped by the Florida
16355s Mayhem let's go to the losers track yet
16357s oh it's Florida mayor again come on like
16359s we gotta play this game this is this is
16361s Halloween moment right here yeah but
16363s like looking into that first match the
16365s the big question we have for the Atlanta
16366s rain was like who's gonna pick up that
16368s main tank Winston uh we we had a lot of
16371s questions now looking at the starting
16373s lineups for this one we actually see a
16376s change coming in because Gator there he
16379s is back in reinforced how does that make
16382s you feel well actually what's a coming
16385s out it does make me feel pretty good we
16387s haven't seen gator in the lineup since
16389s about the kickoff clash and the big
16391s story was of course that out down the
16393s rain they put all their faith behind
16395s Hawk as their tank you know named us a
16398s joke the the Jack of all tanks because
16400s he's able to play so many of these tanks
16401s but now we're heading into a Winston
16403s meta and I think was quite clear that
16405s maybe Hawk struggled to you know pursue
16407s that Western specialty we've seen other
16409s teams around the league struggling when
16410s it comes to this pick so relying on your
16412s main tank instead Gator or of course
16415s known for the reinert and the Winston
16416s pick maybe this will suit them better I
16418s think this will be a jolt of energy like
16420s hey we lost 3-0 to the Florida Mayhem
16422s maybe you're a bit like you know
16424s disenfranchised and a bit you know on
16426s not confident in yourself after that
16427s loss well Gator different circumstances
16430s new roster in the for the Atlanta Reign
16433s here maybe that will be like a jolt of
16434s energy of like hey we can do this with
16436s gatorian as our Winston player maybe
16438s this will lead to a victory here for the
16439s Atlanta Reign I mean you've seen it once
16441s the Dallas fuel didn't play a whole lot
16443s of fearless throughout the entire season
16444s right and now he's coming in and kind of
16446s dominating for the fuel so like what's
16448s the better time to bring in your main
16449s tank player well right now uh and yeah
16451s the loss is gonna hurt for sure maybe
16453s bring some bad memories back against
16455s Hydra and sojin but look gate is still
16458s we haven't seen a place in Skipper class
16460s so it's it's hard to really tell because
16462s you haven't seen footage of it but he's
16463s probably still as good as he's ever been
16464s like they were the dynamic duo in the
16467s Atlanta Reign last year uh playing on
16469s OverWatch one like they're off tank and
16471s Main tank play was just so Sublime
16473s um I can't imagine they've lost any of
16475s that kind of pizzazz I'm super excited
16476s to get it honestly and I think this is a
16478s kind of a perfect metaphor obviously
16479s because of the Winston but um just that
16481s refresh big jolt of energy like you were
16484s saying Johnny yeah it's gonna be a good
16485s time I think for a lot of rain friends
16486s yeah and NADA we talked about Winston we
16487s also have to check the soldier unboxing
16489s for that we're heading over to our
16491s leveling up segment presented by
16492s Butterfinger and we want to take a look
16494s at the search on head to head between
16495s those two teams because this one is
16497s going to be pretty spicy you can be
16499s quite explosive we have to phenomenal
16502s players I don't be so interested to see
16504s who's coming out on top but if you're
16505s looking at the statistics here so far
16508s hydron is looking really good in the
16510s majority of metrics Kai of course with a
16513s little bit more damage output here
16514s though yeah a little bit more damage but
16516s you're looking at charge shot kills
16517s that's what you're really looking at the
16519s majority of the final blows are coming
16521s from just those railgun headshots
16522s whether it's overclock whether it's just
16524s a regular charge shot uh even overclock
16526s kills hydron's kind of beating him there
16528s just a tad this sets are fairly close I
16531s mean final blows is uh more for hydron
16533s right now but this is obviously in
16535s playoffs too it's kind of worth keeping
16536s in mind that Atlanta rain did end up
16539s losing 3-0 so you're still thinking yeah
16540s of course your sojourn's going to be
16542s behind on stats everybody's going to be
16544s behind on stats because you end up
16545s losing so you kind of shrugging there
16547s just a little bit I think but hydrange
16549s has been unreal like sojourn plays
16551s stepped up to another level I don't know
16552s if it's Lan or like Something Else
16554s Something In The Water Swimming in The
16555s Breakfast uh in the hotel
16560s and on that note we are ready for
16563s another match and for all the action
16564s we're going to send it over to Uber and
16566s Mr X
16567s [Music]
16575s as the sun has sets over Anaheim so has
16578s it set over the campaigns I have two of
16581s our OverWatch League playoff teams and
16583s two more are to follow today in our
16587s lower bracket matches ladies and
16589s gentlemen welcome back to the OverWatch
16590s League playoffs I'm Mitch Leslie joined
16592s by Matthew Morello residing over first
16595s up a rematch these two teams have
16597s already had what a couple of days in
16599s between the last time they played each
16601s other and that last Head to Head was the
16603s first time this season that the Florida
16606s Mayhem was able to win a series against
16609s the Atlanta Reign and they're here to
16611s run it back so nice they're gonna have
16612s to do it twice
16613s yeah it's funny that uh you know these
16616s two teams made up two days ago I think I
16617s saw Noah or uh stats guy on Twitter was
16619s saying the last time our next uh match
16621s up for this Hong Jo uh versus Toronto it
16624s was like 1300 days uh between their
16626s matches uh I'm excited I I look I love
16629s elimination matches it's sad to see
16631s people go but this is where you see the
16633s best out of teams I feel like uh in
16635s Atlanta making a huge gamble I would say
16638s here uh you know putting gator in uh we
16641s don't know how much screen time he's had
16642s I imagine uh they're just in general
16644s right with the game being live he's been
16646s able to play more we know he's a
16648s fantastic main tank player uh what will
16650s it be like seeing him in the lineup
16651s today yeah I've been interesting season
16653s for Gator right for a large amount of it
16655s you sort of designated young for this
16656s team the the Atlanta Rider fighting for
16658s survival after frankly and lackluster
16661s showing earlier on in these playoffs the
16664s pieces are there on this team and this
16666s redundancy and we've seen much of you
16668s know the speedily and uh venom look from
16670s these again added to that list man he's
16672s known for a couple of Tanks right but
16675s come bringing him in a Winston situation
16677s is interesting given that we knew that
16680s sort of Hawk was being groomed to be the
16683s tank player that kind of does it all so
16685s I'm really interested to see what I come
16686s out with today let's not waste too much
16688s time let's get him out on the stage here
16689s let's start to put the microscope on the
16692s Atlanta rain
16695s and like you mentioned right when the
16697s kind of meta ships here going in the
16699s playoffs prior to this the Atlanta Reign
16702s are playing obviously Hawk all of the
16704s time it's really been like that since
16706s stage one ah they were playing a ton of
16709s uh speedily Venom uh you know and
16712s vigilante uh who they acquire from the
16715s Washington Justice uh and with this meta
16717s swap they've decided to kind of like
16718s change things up it's completely so to
16721s speak and now even further seeing gator
16724s in the game uh and look we talk about
16726s Gator like you know some kind of like
16728s crazy move they're making here he is a
16729s fantastic player let's be clear we just
16732s have not seen him playing in a very long
16734s time
16736s you know data's best looks were like
16738s from Reinhardt for example he played a
16740s lot a lot of Arisa for this team back
16743s when obviously she deployed a shield and
16745s flipped towards that bunker kind of
16747s style we have seen Gator play in Winston
16750s this season at times and it part of the
16753s eye test I think by all accounts even at
16754s The Players joked about in that very
16756s match so he was sort of playing the
16758s Winston but yeah we did this subverts
16760s our expectations we thought that uh you
16762s know Hawk was going to be the guy the
16764s one to play all the tanks for this team
16766s and that's what Brad rajani had the
16768s right sort of said so now you have to
16769s wonder why this big course correction do
16773s the Atlanta area have something else up
16774s their sleeves right Nero and coyote see
16776s Nero comes in here and there's playing a
16777s lot the reaper this is something he did
16779s a bunch for San Francisco as well uh
16781s back when he was on that roster in what
16782s we coined at the time the zombie cop
16784s very much up his alley that Reaper
16787s picked
16788s yeah and you gotta Wonder like is this
16790s more instead of just the Winston pick
16792s right for Gator he has more experience
16794s playing these more Rush uh you know how
16797s Scott kind of refers to it as like
16798s zombiecom style of play right where you
16801s know he's a main tank by heart
16802s traditionally he can probably pick up
16804s that role as the tank in that type of
16806s composition pretty quick and now let's
16809s bring out their opponents running it
16811s back once more after a victory
16814s against this little team it is the
16817s Florida Mayhem
16822s and I really like this team I think
16824s they've been ascending really through
16826s the plans and whatnot uh hydron secures
16829s his spot you know in this lineup about
16831s uh you know probably a little bit
16833s through the countdown cup that's kind of
16835s when we start to see you know XC moving
16836s out hydron being in all the time sermon
16839s gen being fantastic on the kariko and
16841s then also now having the kind of Veteran
16843s experience of Animo in I think this team
16845s has been one where you know they've been
16847s trending upwards for a while now uh
16852s it looks good otherwise
16855s yeah I know that about a tough match up
16857s against the Seoul Dynasty for the
16859s Florida Mayhem but I think something
16861s that Gunther sort of said he said you
16863s know if we are winning Maps against
16865s teams that have had that extra time to
16867s practice to prepare obviously teams that
16869s didn't have to compete in the play-ins
16870s that's pretty embarrassing for them but
16872s I think we've established now that the
16874s Florida Mayhem have the pedigree to
16876s allow them to overcome that lack of time
16878s when it came to scrimming when it came
16880s to Preparing I mean Christ they said
16882s RuPaul came in and played a map on
16883s kiriko uh I think just randomly I don't
16887s know if they submitted the roster wrong
16888s for that or whatever and he paid really
16890s well so it's quick clear to see that
16891s we're dealing with five players who are
16894s adaptable or extremely flexible and on
16896s the Fly they can make the changes that
16897s they need to it's a whole of a great
16899s team the first map Choice here is going
16901s to be ilios now we kind of talked about
16904s this off air Matthew may be expected to
16906s see Legion based on how well the Mayhem
16908s did on that map last time they played
16910s this team but now we'll have to see what
16913s they bring on ilios and it does still
16915s feel like a map that lends itself pretty
16916s well to their stock
16919s you're a little bit more comfortable
16921s which is I I assume the ilios here uh
16925s going into the first map in the series
16926s someone with an opportunity to you know
16929s play a little bit more of an aggressive
16931s Winston style play depending on which
16932s kind of maps and points you get here uh
16935s I also think it's not the same team you
16938s can't really kind of treat it as the
16939s same Atlanta Reign right with a new tank
16941s in the mix
16942s absolutely that's why our expectations
16944s kind of need to be set for a different
16947s look team there's Atlanta right Atlanta
16949s Reign team rather already hydron uh
16952s making some intimations in the match
16954s chat
16955s definitely the expectation of the
16956s Florida May can continue to come out
16958s strong Atlanta had better hope that this
16961s mix up this last minute change is
16963s conducive to some more success for them
16965s because after the season they've had we
16967s expected Landon to have gone a little
16969s bit better a little bit earlier on in
16970s these playoffs but the Mayhem are not a
16972s team to ever doubt and we expect to see
16975s Matthew hear pretty standard
16977s compositions right shouldn't be anything
16978s up so far I would be shocked if
16982s we see some kind of like large shake-up
16984s uh maybe you see the Arisa come out uh
16987s we see in the Outlaws with Dante used
16989s that at times but kind of fully expect
16991s this mirror matchup to continue to play
16993s out through the majority of the playoffs
16995s okay already hydron gets identified as
16997s playing in off angle and Gator wants to
16999s cut that to the quickest soon as
17001s possible but hydron's able to find Kai
17003s already after repositioning his zeroes
17005s in on the enemies sojourn and removes
17007s him from the map it already fares little
17009s better lingering a little too long in
17011s those crosshairs himself
17013s all right
17017s you know the Florida Mayhem hydron is so
17020s good on this soldier that you know he
17022s starts to get rolling you know it's kind
17024s of like how Kai is on the other side
17025s when Kai gets rolling he's so difficult
17027s to stop uh you don't want to see hydron
17029s start to pop off
17030s well so far so good for the Mayhem and
17033s hydron here
17034s Atlanta already back to start another
17036s flat March Ed a little bit of an
17038s extension there he's able to Swift
17040s we walk away to his Winston and look if
17043s he's just made him responding very well
17045s to these pros from the Atlanta range
17046s Jada just gets caught amongst all of
17048s them
17049s yeah so I mean really no nothing that
17053s they can do to get back towards the
17054s point right 30 counting here for the
17057s Florida Mayhem death Blossom here for
17059s the Atlanta Reign so maybe they can
17061s actually make a play for this is someone
17063s not close to Primal just yet yeah good
17065s opening here we saw hydron full fairly
17067s early in that fight and a successful
17068s death Blossom there from Nero good way
17071s to come alive in this round as he is
17072s accounting for four out of the six final
17075s blows from this Atlanta rain Squad wow
17077s good way to turn up and start to get
17079s some percentage on the board here for
17080s Atlanta of course Kitsune rushes are now
17082s online for both these teams things are
17084s about to get a little hairy
17086s yet online for both teams but you're
17088s gonna have someone with this Primal Rage
17089s and then also Animo with the sound
17091s barrier a little bit earlier so I think
17092s you can play a little bit more
17093s aggressive here to take the point back
17094s if you're Florida tech fights TPS on the
17096s backside here trying to get behind these
17098s could soon Rush is coming out a lot of
17100s roads being paced so far and the
17101s checkmate's gonna be the first to fall
17103s he's discovered in the back load and now
17104s the Primal race from someone really
17106s pressuring Kai he waits and catches the
17109s falling Kai like a damsel and that's it
17112s for Jim the Atlanta right now struggling
17114s as they push in the middle of the map
17115s and someone just kisses jump online able
17118s to clamber back out of the pit and now
17119s look to pressure the remainder of the
17120s Atlanta Reign they still hold the point
17122s right now we're losing hydron here again
17124s less than ideal
17126s okay you teach for that brief moment
17128s there from ultraviolet he drops
17130s immortality the protection Suzy there
17132s just keeps Gator himself and OG alive
17134s for a split second but not good enough
17136s to win that fight someone
17138s incredibly able to live throughout that
17140s entire period of time already halfway up
17143s to another Primal Rage I kind of just
17146s see how awesome he is on that Winston
17149s but also I think kind of like one of the
17150s new breed or potential new breeds of
17152s Tanks as we see moving forward in
17153s OverWatch too right a tank that can
17156s truly play everything he's only got one
17158s death so far three final blows to his
17160s name and to compare I mean gaida has
17162s three deaths I mean guy who's getting
17163s picked on pretty badly by the Mayhem
17165s when he tries to engage speaking of
17167s which that's happening right now bubble
17169s gonna be thrown down here by someone but
17171s hydron has his side pocket to play in
17172s with a fully charged rail he's in a
17174s pretty decent spot guy to realize is
17176s that oh no the slide gets interrupted by
17178s hydron he can't believe it
17181s oh you can see on his face he was
17184s absolutely stunned because that's where
17186s he ended up as slow players here from
17188s Florida who are going to be able to
17189s contest you just got to get this up to
17191s like that 90 95 because oh they actually
17194s get pushed back off the point you see
17195s animal and a few others still here he's
17198s having a long hero into the pit somehow
17199s I mean OG tried to give him the same
17201s kind of send-off but he's able to
17203s clamber out naturally hydron was
17205s actually booped into the pit by Og
17207s there's what happened you sooner rush
17208s now comes out straight away from both
17210s sides here the Mayhem trying to use it
17211s to engage someone for the primer rage
17213s looking for Kai at the moment sound
17215s barrier now expiring off the Atlanta
17217s Reign someone wants to try and track his
17219s Quarry but there are five people turning
17221s towards him he has to go for the Mega
17223s health pack and double back now
17224s Checkmate has a death Blossom but he's a
17226s little exposed in this position and
17227s miro's gonna go for an hydron gets
17229s riddle with bullets here Checkmate wants
17231s to reciprocate his battle to Violet but
17233s that's all he's gonna have the Atlanta
17234s Radar up to 93 and Counting the Mayhem
17237s decimated
17239s yeah as you see it mayhem they're gonna
17240s go with those some desperation picks
17242s here towards the end the Doom the Tracer
17245s but it doesn't matter not able to get a
17247s touch where the Atlanta Reign take round
17249s number one Leroy has an unbelievable
17252s round Matthew nine final blows two
17255s deaths out of a total kills of 16 for
17257s his team his Reaper really on another
17260s level early a lot of pressure being put
17262s down on the Mayhem especially someone
17264s who could see trying to play
17266s aggressively trying to look for Kai and
17268s is getting thwarted by Nero multiple
17270s times
17271s and Atlanta's got to be such a scary
17274s team to play against uh especially in
17276s this type of scenario we can take a look
17278s of all trailers all the protection there
17281s right onto Nero
17283s he's able to pick up a few kills then
17285s just use the rate to just back up away
17286s from Checkmate really nice sequence
17289s there someone locks himself inside a
17291s lethal snow dogs with miros yeah try and
17294s prevent that damage but it was already
17295s too light
17298s do you get a Vibe Mitch right like you
17300s know putting gator in I thought Gator
17301s looked you know good there on the the
17303s Winston to kick things off ah it's also
17306s like Atlanta is just a scary team in
17308s these you know lose and go home
17310s scenarios right it seems like they
17312s always you know pick up their play in
17314s moments like this where they're not
17316s gonna be it's like almost like Florida
17318s at the Rio even the other day just gives
17320s them like a little bit of false
17321s confidence going into this series it'll
17323s be the same thing where I think it's a
17325s much different team they're playing
17326s today got a lot to be doubted they'd
17328s love to be on adult they thrive on that
17330s negative energy uh and you can see it
17331s because they kind of invited a lot of
17333s the time Matthew tied to The High Ground
17335s invites company of Winston right now and
17337s someone will break on in there and
17339s remove him from the equation might run
17341s now to get a bit more aggressive not
17343s worry about being kicked off after 12
17344s nothing across the map frustrating uh
17346s yeah healing overclock there from OG is
17348s able to bring him down eventually data
17351s looks to be on the way out here is
17352s neither team has capped early it will be
17354s Florida who starred with the lead
17357s yeah which is pretty similar to what we
17359s just saw in that previous round uh you
17361s know on well so Atlanta will have to you
17364s know bounce back you see Gator making an
17366s actual uh really strong attempt
17368s constantly to just get in hydron's face
17370s you know put that bubble down block the
17372s line inside towards the sojourn off of
17375s those positions up on The High Ground
17376s getting close to katsune Rashi for
17378s ultraviolet he's gonna be ahead but
17379s they've lost Kai already Checkmate is
17381s able to isolate that she targets
17386s with four players that have to make
17387s their way through the left-hand side to
17388s throw katuna rush down that's going to
17390s help ultraviolet's healing output and of
17392s course that Ace buff here always looking
17394s to make good use of it but it's a
17395s disengage by the Mayhem and the sound
17397s barrier defensively the rain moves
17399s there's a little bit later now when they
17400s actually have to fight the Mayhem of a
17402s hide in their durability count but they
17403s have Point control looks like the rain
17405s are backing away from that kutsune Rush
17409s yes Kai's got an overclock though so
17411s maybe right after this Primal Rage
17413s you'll start to see the Atlanta Reign
17414s press forward is you see someone on the
17416s boat getting both real slow oh my
17418s goodness it takes two to tango they say
17420s but uh I think Vera had the right idea
17423s there Checkmate just throws himself into
17425s that one both Reapers went into right
17426s four we knew that was coming pretty
17428s messy fight so far but the rain are able
17430s to cap it in the background so despite
17433s having lost Kai again
17435s yeah and you can kind of see what
17436s Florida was you know Dave and engaged in
17439s that fight right and someone is using
17441s Primal I know the sound barrier and the
17443s casino Rush is worn off like they start
17445s to have players getting quite weak and
17447s Checkmate ends up using the death boss
17448s for trying to like save the day as they
17449s try and exit but Atlanta just kind of
17452s played that 50 50 stalemate for so long
17454s it's so good and then they were able to
17456s get away but look at this sermon jet
17457s opens up with a headshot pick Yeah
17459s medium range shot there with the kunai
17460s great connection but Checkmate also will
17462s fall to longer range damage Tenkai now
17465s has that overclock you're asking for an
17466s automotive up in the air he is and Kai
17469s just picks him off the Atlanta rain are
17471s gonna be able to maintain control for
17472s now and that guy pick is a big part of
17474s it
17477s you don't have to push forward anymore
17478s they can back up play from the point
17480s here as if you're Atlanta you're gonna
17482s get I know probably about even in terms
17485s of a percentage off of this this fight
17487s should at last for a decent amount on
17489s the point but you have that continuing
17490s Rush here to use yeah ultraviolet we're
17493s gonna let that one go pretty much
17494s straight away here what's the pressure
17495s for the front line needs to be careful
17497s because if he's not healing then there's
17498s not gonna be a ton of it going on python
17500s gets caught out again though this is
17501s looking good for the Atlanta Reign now
17503s they move into the lead behind that
17504s kiriko ultimate and they have to hook
17506s the sound barrier from OG's enough to
17508s answer my chair he'll be back with a
17509s vengeance
17511s yeah this will be the next uh you know
17513s really probably the last difficult test
17514s for them so actually Peter goes in over
17516s the top they're gonna sound better try
17517s and catch them off guard a little bit
17518s some unseen better days but he's been
17520s topped back up Anonymous gonna have the
17521s latest sound barrier if the Mayhem won a
17523s fight now might be the best time
17525s overhead again goes Gator hydron aware
17527s of it so he repositions now towards the
17529s point hoping to try and pressure down
17530s but yeah protection Susan was in play
17532s checkmates able to pull clay out of the
17534s mix regardless and hydron is everywhere
17537s at once Miron doesn't realize he's crept
17539s up on him the overclock's doing some
17540s serious work with the bubble dance
17541s doesn't end up so well for hydron Gator
17544s eventually is able to bring him down and
17546s out of the summer with his Primal Rage
17547s you might you've got the point under
17549s your control
17551s uh yeah but Gator's gonna actually
17553s Primal that's the one that I was talking
17555s about as he's knocking players back all
17556s over the point here now in favor of the
17558s Atlanta Reign he's gonna have some
17560s teammates coming back off the spawn this
17562s long drawn out fight it could be
17564s difficult for Florida panther didn't
17565s have a protection suzu available he also
17567s couldn't switch them he's brought down
17569s by gaita but Checkmate and Hydra on him
17571s back and it's now 85 and Counting the
17574s Atlanta Reign make it close but we're
17576s into last fight territory here
17579s and I kind of like the idea that from
17580s Gator you both you know you get both
17582s primals out and you at that time you had
17584s Kai and Nero alive with you on the point
17586s he's got both of them now and they both
17588s have their alts going in this final
17590s fight checkmight shot himself into the
17592s back line well and truly early looking
17594s for an opportunity now for a dead
17596s Blossom nothing going for Nero no he
17598s just takes it to the face Leroy blossoms
17600s first and actually catches Martin
17601s somehow perhaps he switched steps into
17604s that fight regardless the Elena Reign
17606s they managed to flip the point back here
17607s and maybe just maybe Checkmate is
17610s punished for holding onto that Reaper
17611s ultimate too long the first lap of this
17613s series goes to Atlanta
17616s and you can see a little a little bit
17619s cleaner there I think with gator in the
17621s game gator just making you know the
17622s consistent plays you know jumping right
17624s on a hydron making his life very
17626s difficult all throughout the Primal Tech
17628s is good and I think it you know Florida
17631s probably came in here Mitch like hey you
17633s know we get the same opponent as the
17634s other day it's gonna go just like it how
17636s it went in Atlanta making a statement
17639s right off the bat that it is not gonna
17640s be an easy series can't ask for much
17643s more than that from the Atlanta rain
17644s data comes in on the Winston looks
17646s really quite solid eye test and stats
17649s included miro's Reaper though Head and
17651s Shoulders Above the Rest so important to
17654s have that consistent piece of damage
17656s firing on all cylinders and you better
17657s believe Miro was in the thick of the
17659s action more often than not good start
17661s here for the Atlanta Reign to make him
17663s now need to recalibrate themselves for
17665s this different lineup their opponent's
17666s upbringing

17947s than Meats of the eye a roster mix up
17951s coming into this survival match and
17954s Gator turns up in a big way on that
17956s first map playing that Winston pretty
17958s darn impressively
17960s and I guess if you're Atlanta because uh
17963s we were talking a little bit about this
17964s morning and you know just kind of when
17966s we got the lineups and it was like is
17968s this the right type of move right
17969s because you announced ages ago now Hawk
17972s is going to be your tank for the rest of
17974s the season We're Gonna Roll with him on
17976s every tank right he Hawk plays
17979s tremendous throughout the entire season
17980s right uh it's not like we ever saw like
17982s real dips and Hawks play uh and then
17986s make the swap at this moment uh I think
17990s if you're kind of just like you know the
17992s viewer right you probably just have to
17993s you know keep faith in that Atlanta
17994s coaching staff and Brad like they know
17996s what they have in their players they
17998s also think uh the gator it's kind of
18001s like a no lose scenario right because
18003s you've already lost to this team 3-0 uh
18005s so so like what would happen yet again
18008s right like what's the worst case
18009s scenario uh is you know maybe this meta
18011s just wasn't for you and you're kind of
18013s out but put in a player who nope
18016s historically has always played those
18018s main tanks and played them in
18019s compositions in Meadows like this and
18021s see how it goes and maybe a little bit
18024s of a change up after you know the other
18025s day gives some momentum to the team
18027s right uh you know a little uh little
18029s jump start so to speak absolutely
18031s something a little fresh here as well
18033s maybe just to allow them to recalibrate
18035s a little bit after a very tough start to
18038s these playoffs for automate him they
18040s lose that first map so they turn around
18042s they select I converter for our hybrid
18045s Battlefield and again you know we're
18047s talking about tank selection we may see
18049s Hawk later in the series if we head to
18051s something like circuit Royale for
18052s example where Sigma may be more
18054s desirable San Francisco for example but
18058s for now no changes to either of these
18060s rosters Gator as you saw in the stage
18061s there remained in you can tell he's
18063s serious because the blue Cap's off his
18064s head and on his table he's here to gain
18066s [Music]
18068s is that how you know where he takes his
18070s hat off yeah he's won that dancing all
18072s season
18076s oh okay sure whatever you say so how how
18080s scared do you think Florida is right now
18082s maybe that's scared but like worried
18084s right uh in the sense that you beat this
18087s team the other day uh now you come in
18090s they got a new player in the mix and you
18092s lose map number one in an Eliminator how
18095s worried are you if you're Florida well I
18097s think you're less worried maybe more
18099s frustrated because you can't you
18101s probably can't get a real Reef on this
18104s rain Squad right now especially hydron
18106s is constantly being in check by Gator
18108s you watch him we've seen the POV in that
18110s first round he's forced to slide early
18112s and often sometimes into OG's Boop into
18114s their well sometimes assisting to
18116s enemies in general he's being forced to
18119s put himself in some risky positions to
18121s avoid just getting flattened by Winston
18123s and shut down by the bubble Gator's done
18125s a great job of just neutralizing him
18127s he's Florida Mayhem he's one of their
18129s biggest weapons here but if he can't
18130s function it's hard for them to stay in
18132s step with this rain's got especially
18134s with Kai smiling from here to year on
18135s the other side
18137s yeah I wouldn't say Gators doing
18139s anything flashy right uh no not not like
18142s kind of uh coming in and looking like
18144s Smurf per se but like just playing the
18147s the Winston role in a way that he's just
18149s trying to take or make hydron's life
18151s extremely difficult and you think if you
18154s can neutralize the Soldier's defect you
18156s have a pretty good chance in this series
18157s Florida having to fall back a little bit
18159s here his guide has been probing you can
18161s see his health bar he's actually having
18162s to Get Out Alive which is huge that's
18164s great for ultraviolet he'll top him up
18165s and get him back in The Fray and hope to
18167s build to that first katsune Rush when
18170s things start to get a little bit hectic
18171s hydron as well okay he's on a thank you
18173s and he's using mobility and he's in the
18175s perfect spot to catch Gator Checkmate
18176s also runs into that Winston's able to
18178s pick him off hydron again finds himself
18180s yeah in a sticky situation Kai
18182s roundhouses him
18184s I was wondering if you could fight this
18187s you know if you're the Atlanta rain but
18189s now that you've lost your Reaper I don't
18191s think I don't think you can as
18192s effectively I think if you would have
18194s had Nero stay alive there you actually
18195s could have came back rather quickly and
18197s maybe you're actually able to kind of
18198s catch them you know further up at the
18200s choke and make a play for it but soon it
18202s runs already here I'm surprised someone
18204s gets spice even with that Reaper on the
18206s battlefield right now but maybe it's all
18207s part of his playing because he's
18212s for the second time in a row Ultra
18215s Runner tries to run away but that's the
18216s Lion's Share of the healing now take it
18218s away from the Atlanta Reign but someone
18219s gets caught inside the PC shop that's
18222s not what we mean we say check in PC
18223s ladies and gentlemen Florida able to
18225s outlast though because Checkmate and
18227s marching stand
18229s yeah and even with that continue Rush
18230s coming right around the corner from
18232s ultraviolet and Atlanta actually making
18234s uh you know a pretty good play for the
18236s point no progress gain
18240s it's pretty slow here for the Atlanta
18242s Reign at the start at this you know
18244s Florida Mayhem you know you'll have your
18245s sound barrier here and you'll have your
18248s death Blossom that'll be the overclock
18249s early makes the first jump
18252s the position as we see someone like the
18254s counter engagement they might have a
18256s waiting for game to try and go after
18258s hydron and that's when they strike Hydra
18260s being pressure Once More by the
18261s aforementioned this time gives him a
18263s party gift that's right railgun catches
18265s him and he refines two into the hunting
18267s lodge he tries to go but hydron
18268s posthumously is able to catch him inside
18270s there disrupt the shot now client needs
18272s to make the flanking play but his team
18273s is gone he's gonna find himself up
18275s against the wall
18276s hi and Checkmate is gone you know he has
18280s gone unmarked by the opposing team is it
18283s feels like every kill in the feed for
18285s the Florida Mayhem is Checkmate just
18287s running around now kill after kill just
18289s finding these targets low the DPS
18291s passive is like massive for Reaper right
18294s uh you know Reaper really struggles with
18295s like that movement speed and you know
18297s being able to reload faster and get a
18299s little bit of a movement speed buff you
18300s can see how the reaper start shaming
18301s these kills together not good for
18304s Atlanta it's going to be Kai dropping
18305s off the rip Byron flips the script and
18308s actually gets the first pick this time
18309s Florida winning the fights even losing
18311s him first beforehand the animal getting
18314s caught there not great but with the
18315s mobility not as important for Florida
18316s because they're backed up against the
18317s back of the point as it is oh to getting
18319s zoned Away by hydron that's a fantastic
18321s disrupter shot and look at Gator he's
18323s caught away from the rest of his team
18324s easy to drag down by the rest of the
18326s Mayhem
18331s Atlanta Reigns so split from each other
18333s right Gator on like a little bit of a
18335s you know a flanking off angle he gets
18337s taken out just like that 30 seconds on
18340s the clock here for the Atlanta Reign
18341s they mean no progress here on point a
18343s it's been all dominance from the Florida
18345s Mayhem all the coordination we saw in
18348s that first match seems to have
18349s evaporated for the Atlanta Reign they
18351s cannot get Gator matching up with the
18353s rest of their Dives and there's a
18354s consumer Rush on board for both sides
18356s look to the Reapers here to make the big
18358s impact in this fight Frontline standing
18360s tall is gonna be crucial man did trying
18362s to play for the back line here the
18363s healing on someone as good when he drops
18365s it removes Gator Checkmate launching
18367s four but Mira catches him there while
18369s he's in that dead Blossom Nero getting
18371s close to his open it may not be a factor
18372s in this fight Hydra needs to double back
18374s here going for the overclocked and what
18376s a connection OG Falls straight into that
18378s railgun the sound barrier definitely
18381s helps the Mayhem hold out it is a
18383s shutout of the range here on eichenvault
18386s yeah it's uh not able to get in front of
18389s Hydra and you see how much space he has
18391s when we go to his first person POV and
18394s then also Checkmate able to just pop off
18396s on the reaper now there was one uh there
18398s was one moment where we were talking
18400s about Gator using the Primal raging he
18401s actually had to use the Primal Rage a
18403s little bit earlier than I think he would
18405s have liked because what happens is he's
18407s like around the corner by the pillar and
18409s then Checkmate comes flying around and
18411s uses death Blossom and Gators got a you
18413s know one of two options right it's
18415s either pop Primal live and get out or
18417s you know uh just kind of stand there and
18420s dive right I mean he's just gonna
18421s eventually die to the death boss of the
18423s damage he actually uses the Primal and
18425s like starts to try and almost like get
18427s him out of the way but doesn't have the
18428s Primal that didn't knock around hydron
18430s in the back line and that's what hydron
18432s is able to pick up like two kills during
18434s that fight and win it for Florida so
18436s just those little things like that you
18437s know Primal is such a a big ability uh
18440s from the winstons right the ultimate to
18442s be able to just displace the enemy
18444s sojourn or Force cooldowns out and
18446s whether it be
18448s not to have it at that moment in really
18450s one of your only two you know options to
18453s have her that ultimate during an attack
18455s there is really difficult for Atlanta
18457s it's bad beats for Kai as well Matt the
18459s first two fights for the rain he's the
18461s one that serves them up that elimination
18462s on hydron he finds the first pick in
18465s both those engagements and still the
18467s rain can't leverage their player
18469s Advantage into any capture progress
18471s whatsoever no tips no nothing now the
18474s Florida mayhem's win condition is so
18475s clear just one tick they'll be taking
18478s this map away very quickly the tables
18480s seem to have turned and hydron is on the
18482s hunt if he wants Kai he wants his bad
18484s look out he appears into the belly of
18485s the Beast he goes and he gets away with
18487s it protecting Susan throwing up there
18489s Hydra now face to face with Gator who
18491s picks up Margin maybe a little overrated
18494s for the Mayhem in that fight yeah yeah I
18497s would say so right uh you know coming
18499s flying around the corner uh he does get
18502s Kai weak but he slides in they use a
18506s protection suit like you have to use so
18508s many different big abilities there to be
18510s able to land that kill and they don't
18511s get it and then they're just kind of
18512s stuck with absolutely nothing so uh
18515s Florida getting really aggressive
18516s earlier huge shot there from Khan has to
18520s get healed up basically from death but I
18522s know first fight goes fast for the
18524s Atlanta Reign see someone he jumps there
18525s but he's not engaging right he takes
18527s some space but hydron is still taking
18529s him to deformation trying to take it off
18531s angle to the left of Kai right now he
18533s just gets picked off and once you let
18535s Kai get started you're in a lot of
18537s danger the Mayhem now scrappling to get
18540s back in the sword
18542s yeah it is a I think Florida needs to be
18544s careful right you're taking these fights
18546s fast maybe you're trying to build up
18547s some ultimates you're not accomplishing
18549s that uh you haven't really gotten any
18552s Target in in a Zone where you would say
18555s they're like you know extremely weak or
18557s near death rates where you would be a
18559s little bit alarmed if you're the Atlanta
18560s Reign uh outside of that first fight
18562s with uh you know kai but other than that
18563s it's been just dominance you can see in
18566s terms of the ultimate charge game here
18567s Kai goes still very safe very
18570s conservative he's not playing this left
18572s angle that he's standing in right now at
18573s the start of the fight right he's only
18574s transitioning there once the Mayhem are
18576s fully committed he's sitting right in
18578s the back of his entire formation not
18580s wanting to get picked up for free
18581s disrupt the shot thrown down on the make
18583s him looks like they're pretty clear
18585s about wanting to stay around here margin
18587s doesn't have the casino Rush yet
18588s ultraviolet he's gonna use straight away
18590s sound barrier from animal is it gonna be
18591s enough Primal race inside a computer
18593s shop here hydron eventually brought down
18596s and Checkmate in a compromising spot to
18598s say the very least here well under two
18600s minutes left and Checkmate tries to go
18601s for the death of the
18606s now he's in a position to do some real
18609s damage Kai goes down Ultra violent
18612s follows the Atlanta Reign tip the king
18614s because they've seen Checkmate come in
18616s hot and heavy
18617s and I feel like Checkmate is really the
18620s big difference between these two teams
18622s on this map because Atlanta's D was
18625s looking pretty good there for a bit
18626s Mitch and then once the reaper for the
18628s Florida Mayhem he'll got in position
18630s right here we see him being Primal Rage
18633s like basically to death in a corner uses
18635s raid form to get out and then once he
18637s gets in towards that back line I know he
18639s is just dominant Sarah from Checkmate in
18641s a matchup of Superstar sojones
18644s incredible hit scan players so far it's
18648s been all about the reaper guy both Nero
18651s and Checkmate in back-to-back Maps
18653s having outsized impacts for their teams
18656s and that's not even counting playing
18658s inside those kiriko ultimates what a
18660s crazy run there for checkmate at the end
18662s of the round when his team was well
18664s behind it looked like the hairbrained
18666s attempt to go for the death Blossom but
18668s it paid off and that's why he's there
18669s and that's why I'm here ladies and
18670s gentlemen and you need to stay there
18672s we're gonna be back with map number
18673s three after this
18676s one
18681s [Music]
18684s time
18686s [Music]
18692s [Music]
18698s it's time for week two of the summer
18701s Showdown qualifiers everybody's been
18702s beating everybody the upsets have been
18704s in full swing
18711s foreign
18714s to walk forward though because even if
18716s you want a blade here first of all he's
18718s out Pace the sports which is very nice
18719s not just Becky here importantly you have
18721s to get past the rally in the sound
18722s barrier but you need to make sure the
18723s valley are committed in a way that you
18724s can chase them down
18725s okay this time he does not wait to pull
18727s the blade he pulls it immediately and
18729s it's four Swift kills in the blink of an
18731s eye
18732s possessed to shutting them down that's
18734s half the time being now drained away is
18736s he nearly with the team kill and oh
18739s they're looking for some more
18744s right back out into the open
18747s Monk's gone
18749s this has to be anyone to take them out
18750s there's Furious doomfist coming into the
18751s fight league with the overclock
18755s I don't think they're gonna have to do
18756s anything here I have to expand that wait
18759s Jim you just took out aim God
18761s Jimbo again finds Fury Jim who's keeping
18763s the team alive cess takes out leave 20
18766s seconds remaining there's gonna be one
18768s hell of an assault coming in from the
18769s hunters they got Gaga's Rampage if Gaga
18771s goes down this is going to be the gym
18773s move is back in this fight again
18777s they didn't even have to use that
18779s pivotal ultimate and they're back on
18781s their points I mean goodness Jimmy
18784s really clutched that fight
18786s I figured out how to break the meta even
18788s further in terms that all you need is a
18789s profit on Regina blade now gonna be
18791s pulled out Nisha taking down
18794s the coach gun the takeout jinmu and it
18797s is such a swift cleanup did you see a
18800s sound barrier because I didn't I think
18801s that was an Ajax from Nisha sadly
18806s and what the hell was that the name
18812s dragging down just give him the trophy
18814s just just just they win they win the
18816s season it's over we don't need the
18817s playoffs
18819s is the Rookie of the Year
18823s rally out from irony the ante from the
18825s Rampage only catching two Bernard a
18827s little bit of pressure but now can be
18828s healed an architect finds fits blade
18831s pulled out immediately gets in finds
18833s profit finds smart but it seems like we
18835s are not done yet architect huge picking
18837s up four eliminations with the blade
18839s itself otherwise I believe just
18841s completely Aces the squad and that is
18843s going to be the case now on to point B
18847s when the sigma comes for a thing you
18849s would either take two fights like fight
18850s on the first corner and then fight on
18852s the loss but a lot of teams just held on
18853s this last Corner before this point oh
18856s Victoria 13 HP is the one packing please
18858s oh no that's something I feel like this
18860s uh dude this man look at him go I mean
18862s like
18863s look at this guy go like five kills just
18866s like that a blink of an eye quick team
18868s kill
18869s this guy's just he's a freak on the
18871s sticks man take a look at uh proper from
18873s his POV one dash through two yeah I mean
18876s this is just
18878s that's just filthy stuff
18887s [Music]
18892s [Music]
18906s foreign
18908s [Music]
18932s the American tornado spins up and gets
18935s those Houston Outlaws out of here you
18937s can go all in but I hope you've got
18938s insurance against the weather baby
18943s foreign
18947s [Music]
18955s [Music]
18962s comes out of the Mayhem sweep them away
18965s unbelievable
18967s [Music]
18974s well everybody looks like we have a bit
18976s of a game on our hands now perhaps we
18979s were singing the Praises of this
18981s slightly retooled Atlanta Reign Squad a
18983s little too early because the like
18985s involved there was a whole lot of
18986s nothing
18988s yeah I mean it was uh it was a strong
18991s showing from the Florida Mayhem on their
18994s map pack I also think a little bit of a
18996s wake-up call right uh the losing map
18998s number one like hey this is not the same
19001s Atlanta Reign we played the other day
19002s this is a win or go home scenario we
19005s need to turn up and Checkmate definitely
19007s did in map number two
19009s this was Unreal 10 final blows for three
19012s deaths I know a good portion of those
19015s coming in that very last fight check may
19017s not really putting himself in the
19018s spotlight early on in the round but
19020s absolutely helping punish Gator who is
19023s trying to engage trying to continue this
19025s trend of pressuring hydron but it's a
19027s different map hydron has much safer
19029s Pockets to retreat to on defense I can
19032s follow and sometimes Gator would find
19034s he's just jumped and all of a sudden
19035s someone's gone over his head with the
19037s rest of the make him and are engaging on
19039s the Reign Florida on the same page when
19042s it came to their counter Dives in a big
19044s way that's so crucial when you're
19046s playing Winston comps on defense you
19049s have to be on the same wavelength in the
19051s Florida Mayhem they look like a
19053s well-oiled machine there this is what I
19056s mean this is really the fruits of this
19057s team's labor all through the season a
19060s team that was doubted by so many they've
19062s come together at such a crucial time
19063s they've evened up the series now as
19065s Route 66 will be the Phoenix pick
19068s I mean look at it look at the team like
19070s the Florida Mayhem and London Spitfire
19073s right
19074s like nobody was picking these teams at
19076s the beginning of the season to go deep
19077s uh you know into our playoffs I mean
19080s hell even qualify for the playoffs right
19082s uh just tremendous showings from you
19085s know those two teams uh we got one of
19087s them in the series here with you know
19089s Florida Mayhem starting to get things
19091s going in the right direction roots six
19094s an interesting map Choice here from the
19095s Atlanta rain uh a little bit more space
19098s a little bit more open maybe they feel
19100s like this allows Kai to get things going
19101s a bit more
19103s Atlanta definitely looking to leverage
19105s that part of their Arsenal as it was
19107s pretty critical on I can folder at least
19110s in terms of starting off the fights it's
19112s a matchup we get really excited about
19113s seeing Kai and fitted against hydron two
19116s players ever spent many years holding
19118s their craft as long range skip scam
19119s players sojour and fits their Styles so
19122s well and we've seen them quite often go
19124s to battle with each other at the start
19125s of these fights I mean let's kick back
19127s to back one of those fire that first
19129s fight and I convolver with a Florida
19130s Mayhem descent Hydra he dove into the
19134s Atlanta Reign backed up of course by
19135s Martin on the kiriko it didn't work out
19137s but you can kind of see the game plan
19139s take Kai down at any cost
19142s and and what's your opinion here on this
19145s because I think this is a map that it's
19146s probably a lot harder to play the reaper
19149s on uh I mean you're still gonna play it
19151s right but uh just harder than a map like
19153s Ike involved right like I can involve a
19155s lot of different you know area of the
19157s map that you can kind of get behind
19159s cover you know use different routes the
19161s TP Route 66 is no obviously not junker
19164s town in terms of wide open but uh it is
19167s pretty open the areas where the fights
19169s take place are more likely uh you know
19171s choke points where I think it could be a
19173s little bit harder to get value out of
19174s Reaper in the same way yeah I mean the
19175s flanking routes aren't exactly as
19177s plentiful on a map that's more sort of
19179s uh you know singular level of course big
19181s girls there's a factory here but trying
19182s to obscure your position as Reaper can
19184s be difficult sometimes that's why teams
19186s don't play forward and actually hold the
19188s girls to give a decent plank angle to
19190s their Reaper who can head up to them on
19192s their right hand side or flank behind
19194s that side hydron hears this he hears
19196s Nero teleport into what we believe is
19198s the lower level of big girls we see them
19200s there in the wireframe so I've been very
19202s aware of when the reaper may come
19204s knocking
19205s yeah a Reaper enough the uh the most
19208s silent sneakiest flank hero uh with his
19211s teleport just screams like what gives
19212s that away yeah exactly
19214s uh just keeps right off right on the
19217s other side of big girls but uh nope
19219s Atlanta's gotten a decent amount of
19220s payload progress uh you know before this
19223s fight is kicked off like Florida's had
19225s to back up numerous times where you know
19227s you lose this it's gonna be a one fight
19229s point eight mate which is great for the
19230s Atlanta range if I'm looking for the
19232s countertive here from Florida right
19233s they're giving a bit of crown they're
19234s allowing the rain to potentially orbit
19236s itself I mean there it is they almost
19238s have the pale at home but there it is
19239s they eventually able to carve Gator away
19241s from the rest of the Atlanta rain so
19243s their patience really pays off there man
19247s I I I'm more of a fan of seeing that
19250s earlier fight I mean here's gonna be the
19251s continuing Rush here from the Florida
19252s Mayhem so you have to actually have to
19254s use this ultimate I know just to be able
19256s to live and maybe solidify the fight in
19259s your favor they're gonna have to back up
19260s now I mean uh how do you like that
19262s passive play now that you've burned that
19264s ultimate right they're coming back with
19265s you know both support ultimates and the
19267s payload is very close to completion oh
19269s that would have been a big shot this is
19270s a problem big problem python has to now
19272s face Nero one versus one for a time yeah
19275s the entirety of the Mayhem or at least
19276s half of them have to double back and
19277s that allows Kai to find Checkmate
19279s amongst the thinning mass of Mayhem
19282s players now they're being stretched
19283s across the map here Atlanta can now
19285s start to poke at some of these weaker
19287s extremities and start to punish this
19290s okay Kai looking like a very nasty mural
19293s on the wall of the girls there
19295s oh and this is massive for the Florida
19297s bit Yeah so you're able to stay alive on
19300s the payload while someone is juggling
19302s Kai inside the big girls gets him out of
19304s the fight I believe he had onamo and
19306s Checkmate they are able to do so stay
19308s alive for a period you know if you're
19309s able to hold this here it's because you
19311s were able to just stall that out for a
19313s while all right OG down the crucially
19315s gator is still in play here it can be
19317s healed up by ultraviolet Deadpool
19321s dead for fall perfect he catches him
19324s with open arms and the Hellfire shotguns
19326s go to work great turnaround there
19328s considering that you know Margie's not
19329s really in the picture through much of
19331s that fight someone gets picked off
19332s because there's not enough healing and
19334s still to Mayhem hang on
19336s it it's so difficult I mean you see uh
19339s no it's really just Kai in someone
19341s inside of a girl so there's a few
19343s Fighters alive for the Atlanta rain
19344s still in the cart trying to get it over
19346s the line it's so close but you know
19348s Reaper in terms of like obviously he
19350s gets a lifesteal from doing damage uh
19353s race form to be able to live for a
19355s little bit uh no longer being vulnerable
19357s and then onamo on the Lucio is so
19359s slippery and he hit they're not able to
19360s get those players off the point it's
19362s foxy is on the Mayhem are on the rush
19364s here Paving the pink Road as they charge
19366s ahead and again his check might leading
19368s the charge where's guy they're gonna go
19370s I mean down to the end of the Chasm by
19374s the looks of things an hour 23 seconds
19375s left the Atlanta Reign have to come up
19377s with something real quick these two
19379s support alts are gonna be absolutely
19381s essential
19383s yeah I mean you're gonna have sound
19385s barrier for Florida Mayhem and Animo I
19388s wonder if you decide to like get
19389s aggressive behind this or are you trying
19391s like you know Force this fight Atlanta
19393s Reign trying to go in they're gonna
19394s sound barrier first yeah both teams
19396s actually end up getting the beats off
19397s there OG really wants to get this fight
19399s started up katuna wraps thrown down and
19401s a disengage for the Mayhem look at them
19402s spread out here trying to wait it out
19403s he's might expose them though they're
19405s getting picked off but Hydro uses the
19406s space to find a kill on OG not too Chevy
19409s but ultraviolet turns up and though
19411s kunai are going to work shredding
19413s through the Florida Main camp and it
19415s looks like those double support
19415s ultimates are the Difference Maker in
19417s the end
19418s yeah have that extra support ultimate
19421s was key uh Florida Mayhem I actually
19423s really like how they played that though
19424s they end up disengaging like you
19426s mentioned and they actually Jump Right
19428s In And I think what they're trying to
19429s play for I mean you lose uh I believe
19431s you lose Animo really early you hit the
19433s hands of ultraviolet uh what they're
19434s trying to play for is someone getting
19436s that Primal Rage uh as we see this from
19438s a few of these yeah he's able to get
19441s checkmate and Automotive uh but they're
19443s trying to play for there and see like if
19445s those two players can live uh now those
19447s who have two players key installing the
19448s previous one out if those two players
19450s can live someone gets Primal and they
19452s keep that going that's what they're
19454s really trying to do with that disengage
19455s oh that was dangerous lining up on the
19457s stairs like that it's an easy Royal gun
19459s shot it's in the killer checkmate's gone
19462s down in Primal Rage here from someone to
19463s what end I've gotta ask he goes deep
19466s should be able to climb back out and
19467s join the rest of his team but Gator is
19469s sowing disarray in the back line himself
19473s someone has to fail I mean he is so low
19476s he actually goes back and gets the mega
19477s help he's almost like behind Big Earl
19479s sir
19480s both teams oh that is clean
19485s fantastic Hydro was probing for
19486s something just like that for Nero
19491s as he spins to win Checkmate though he's
19494s gonna get away with this I can't believe
19495s it makes out like an absolute Bandit
19498s slams down that Reaper ultimate and the
19500s brain do not have the ability to get
19503s away
19504s uh Checkmate is so happy he is now
19507s playing tank anymore for the Florida
19508s Mayhem so he is able to just do stuff
19511s like that looks like Nero so he gets
19513s that one kill looks like he's gonna you
19514s know make it out with his life he's got
19516s raised for he's just staring down
19517s checkmate with the death Blossom there
19519s it's uh nothing he can do not able to
19521s survive long enough past that but
19523s Lana trying to see like a little bit of
19525s a you know they're trying to like be a
19527s little bit sneakier right they get in
19528s towards the saloon and give some options
19529s to go out the backside and come back out
19531s the front she's making Florida guess a
19533s little bit it doesn't take much to slow
19534s the rain down though disrupt the shot
19536s throw the doorway to make him a Savage
19539s what the Raider trying to pull off here
19542s already used here by ultraviolet so the
19544s rain have to come up with something and
19545s do it do it too
19547s might have been trying to like beat you
19549s know uh whether like if someone would
19550s have jumped down they could have
19551s consuming rush and just charged him down
19552s really quick I think they were trying to
19554s bait them in there how do they line up a
19555s good continue rush now look at the make
19557s and they're playing The High Ground here
19558s they're playing really it's quite
19559s sparsely and safe they're gonna go for
19560s it anyway though sound barrier here for
19562s the Florida major but hydron is King of
19564s the Hill for the time being and he looks
19566s down upon his subjects with a Clint in
19568s his eye ultraviolet will join Gator Up
19571s On The Higher Ground Suzy deployed now
19573s the sound barrier comes out for the
19574s Atlanta Reign that's a huge Advantage
19575s for them in this fight but they can't
19577s get to someone heidel's able to pick up
19579s Gator because Gander eventually has to
19581s leave him alone on The High Ground this
19583s guy a consistent Thorne in the side for
19585s the Atlanta Arena superheated ONE of
19588s course as those whale guns ring out and
19590s the Florida Mayhem stop the rain in
19592s their tracks
19594s is it just me or it's a really bizarre
19598s School offense they are from the Atlanta
19600s Reign and and I say that because
19604s they actually almost like get that
19605s second checkpoint
19606s it just felt like they didn't really win
19608s any fights right I mean Florida gave up
19610s so much payload progress for absolutely
19612s nothing uh at the start and then just
19615s kind of held it right before for the
19617s entire time pretty much uh it's one
19619s fight that goes Atlanta's favorite there
19621s uh and then once the gate opens it's
19623s basically one fight that goes with
19625s Atlanta away there and then it's just
19626s all Florida Mayhem just uh you know when
19629s you see a uh an offense that's so one
19633s side in terms of fights typically you
19634s don't see the payload obviously go that
19636s far like you would have seen it you know
19637s just in before that a checkpoint uh but
19639s Atlanta is able to get a lot of free
19641s payload progress and then take advantage
19643s of that
19644s well you kind of hinted at this map
19646s selection maybe being something
19648s to try and cater to Kai
19650s but usually I would have impacted all we
19652s should check my tone of this fight
19653s around by the way look at how low his
19654s health is look at how low it is
19657s unreal
19658s oh
19659s talk about yeah flipping the script on
19661s the Atlanta Reign there they thought
19663s they had Checkmate six feet under at
19665s that point
19667s he was awesome on hike involved here
19670s again
19671s service do you have to
19673s ah they look like Teeth yeah you can't
19677s see it you cannot unsee it now I mean
19679s I've seen it and I cannot see it from
19682s how we just reminded though I get Kai
19684s it's one final blow five deaths on that
19686s attacking side he isn't able to find the
19688s angles to punish hydron having a lot
19691s more success on the sojourn having a lot
19692s more space to work it
19702s the cart makes it like all the way
19704s around big Earls uh it's not like there
19706s was like some you know Fight Win early
19709s on like in a scenario like from Atlanta
19711s and then movement yeah I mean this is
19713s going to be Florida they're gonna get
19715s the payload moving right away uh
19717s so I I don't expect anybody on Atlanta
19720s to have like amazing sense because
19721s really it was like just two fights that
19723s went in their favor uh Florida really
19725s otherwise in complete control of the
19727s game here on route 66. really odd
19730s engagement there from Atlanta uh I think
19732s after they lose the first play I think
19733s it was Clyde that fell uh you see Gator
19735s is pretty much residing the fact the
19737s fight's over he's like A.D straight
19738s thing trying to right click
19740s from like medium range you're like oh
19742s God he gets caught here
19745s so much damage I I think like he doesn't
19748s want to jump right in towards hydron uh
19750s and but he ends up just getting right in
19752s like checkmate's face and takes a ton of
19754s damage has to back out and then Nero is
19756s like kind of left the No Man's plan he
19758s died that is things not looking good for
19760s the rain anamo is kicker brain he
19763s actually positioned himself so we can
19764s redirect Gator on that dive there Gator
19766s cannot touch hydron hydron again his
19769s teammates allowing him to keep Gatorade
19770s arms length where surgeon really thrives
19772s you watch Gainer you watch how much he
19774s is struggling to get on his Target so
19777s it's not because of a mechanical
19778s deficiency or anything like that is it
19779s the Mayhem noise game they know exactly
19781s how to protect hydron for this constant
19783s Winston pressures
19785s yeah so Kai gets a huge pick there uh
19788s you know summer jet had to continue rush
19789s so you're not gonna have that here for a
19791s fight at the choke and Barta looks like
19793s they want to press the issue anyway
19794s check bite hiding his death Blossom does
19797s enough could use it there the rain are
19798s forced apart with the key ultimate here
19800s I was gonna say is that is that a
19802s birthday thing for Florida right you
19804s know they end up using nothing and just
19806s pushing in and you're just a threat of
19808s them continuing to fight that it was
19811s really just uh when we're watching from
19812s kinds he'll be just someone in Checkmate
19814s who actually like kind of like push
19816s forward and look like they're going to
19817s get aggressive and that gets the casino
19818s rush out right away uh where now I feel
19820s like Florida has a big Advantage uh they
19823s really need what two fights and that's
19824s it
19826s Gator quickly takes to the skies to the
19828s Mayhem again Mass their troops Hydro
19831s there actually getting a bit of a state
19832s of execution there is it seems like they
19834s were backed away Kai goes down before
19836s the sound barrier can even be a factor
19838s here and that's a Swift step away by
19840s ultraviolet leave someone free now to
19842s find anybody and start to give him a
19845s little bit tickle this is very good for
19847s the floor to make him here they do use
19848s both of those support ultimates but it's
19850s house money put them after it after the
19852s Atlanta Reign had made use of their
19853s support just prior they have a ton of
19856s time to a ton of time here for the
19858s Florida Mayhem to be able to take this
19860s point and that'll be the shot right in
19862s the choke and an overclock from hydron
19864s on high ground skater Primal Rage
19866s doesn't really offer him uh very much
19869s Solace at the moment as much of that
19870s Hill already Stripped Away and someone's
19873s able to connect with Kai looks like that
19874s was at range after hydron had done much
19876s of the groundwork there and Gator
19878s unfortunately is going to be lifeless as
19879s he touches down for Nero now trying to
19881s make the game but only the one kill from
19883s him with that dead Blossom and
19884s eventually he'll be brought to heal as
19886s well the Florida Mayhem light years
19888s ahead of the Atlanta Reign and now
19890s snatch this one up comfortably Florida
19893s go up two to one yeah and although the
19896s Atlanta rain almost get that second
19898s checkpoint I know they make good
19900s progress it still feel like that entire
19902s map was all Florida Mayhem uh you see
19905s you know some nice shots from hydron at
19908s range and then the follow-up from
19910s someone with the the Winston right
19912s clicks you know being able to do some
19913s long range damage and then Checkmate
19915s getting in the mix three players playing
19917s lights out for Florida 12-4 for
19920s checkmate 10 and three for hydron again
19922s it's the elite DPS line on the Florida
19925s Mayhem that pumps out some serious
19927s numbers but he gotta hand it to this
19929s squad they are on the same page getting
19931s away with a Winston composition on
19933s defense is hard for even the best teams
19935s but they may have had it on Lock and
19938s they're threatening now to send Atlanta
19939s Reign home

20200s this guy can do anything
20204s what someone already excuse me
20208s what is this Cool Runnings sorry someone
20211s just slurped up proper on the way
20214s through there's like someone's just
20215s bolted a bloody hyper power Dyson to the
20217s front of him as he charges through the
20219s middle of the map
20220s so if someone has to eat the spaghetti
20225s absolutely
20229s [Music]
20233s foreign
20242s when it comes to Rookies I think someone
20244s is someone we're really gonna have to
20246s start heavily considering as one of the
20249s best
20254s hopes for high for the Atlanta Reign at
20256s the start of this season this infusion
20258s of talent really getting people excited
20260s but on the other side the Florida Mayhem
20262s definitely underrated by everybody and
20266s of course now the error of our ways has
20268s been exposed look at this someone pretty
20271s insane play on Route 66 backing up his
20275s DPS actually in a huge way opening up so
20278s many opportunities for checkmate for
20280s Hydra to get in there this team is
20282s absolutely stacked and I can't believe
20284s it's taken us so long to realize
20286s it's crazy right uh he's been such a
20289s talented player for the entire year uh
20292s it's like when you do the roll Stars
20293s right you like you wish you had like
20295s just more brawl stars to give out uh but
20298s I I think someone is mcgravy's already
20303s ammo yeah I mean well or not it's more
20307s fun to get the green where am I let him
20308s go crazy on Twitter ah is someone's a
20310s player who he's gonna be in that
20312s conversation for you know his entire Ron
20315s as a player uh he's just being able to
20318s pick up all of the different tanks in
20320s the new 5v5 way that you know OverWatch
20323s is played and be at that level
20325s consistently I mean how many teams have
20327s we seen that it's really kind of hurt
20329s their season not being able to do that
20331s right Florida uh they have no worry with
20333s him in that slot that's something that
20335s the Atlanta Reign were touting uh that
20338s Hawk was going to be able to bring to
20339s this team and yet for this entire series
20341s including this next map Port has been
20346s somebody who's been thrust into the MVP
20348s conversation the Royal Star conversation
20349s you name it over the course of the
20351s season is not present on this team right
20353s now and he land around a hoping that
20356s Gator is their ticket forward but
20358s they're going to win out from here
20359s Esperanza is going to be our next map in
20361s this series and this is the last chance
20363s for the Atlanta Reign to show us the
20366s fruits of a long season of hard work
20368s [Music]
20369s wow it's you know how we just talked
20372s about how uh you know someone is able to
20374s fill all those slots right where it's
20376s derailed a lot of teams is that gonna be
20379s kind of the story of the Atlanta rain
20380s right I know they they kind of make this
20382s play where uh Hawk is going to be their
20385s tank the entire year uh and maybe just
20388s at this time with this particular meta
20390s it's just not working out and it put
20392s gator in last minutes kind of top uh now
20396s I actually agree with the decision the
20398s Atlanta range uh made earlier on I
20401s actually think that was the right
20402s decision to make uh it's just maybe at a
20405s time like this you know is there a way
20408s you could have got Gators and more run
20410s or more scrim time or you know a little
20411s bit more experience with the team
20413s throughout the year just in case right
20415s uh because you never know but uh still a
20419s really rough scenario for the Atlanta
20421s Reign to be in this type of position uh
20423s like how he mentioned you know the
20425s countdown cup it's a lot of speedily a
20427s lot of uh vigilante uh Hawk Venom uh The
20431s Meta doesn't really dictate towards that
20432s type of lineup they have to change
20434s things up completely coming in here and
20436s go up against a Florida am team who
20438s already has their number in this
20440s tournament the Mayhem said that their
20442s purpose in coming to Anaheim was to
20445s chill and have a good time and eat some
20447s Korean barbecue but now it looks like
20448s flaming chicken might be on the menu
20450s after all this team had three days to
20453s prepare and only a handful of teams as
20454s willing scrim partners and they've
20456s turned up now to threatened Atlanta's
20458s run in this playoff bracket already our
20461s teams are clashing our course around the
20462s bottom
20465s preemptively just make me a move there
20467s to make it harder for Gator to draw a
20468s bead on him he will be scrutinized
20470s heavily and here he goes again
20474s how healthy someone is someone just
20475s playing inside of that doorway there and
20478s just inviting Gator and the rest of the
20480s Atlanta Arena around the corner getting
20482s so low but nice movement able to get out
20484s High looking dangerous in the back line
20486s but animal is able to bring him down
20487s Force feeding him those Cheerios and the
20490s Fordham am come out on top in this fight
20492s they'll clean up and they'll get on the
20494s board early it's a long map Matthew it's
20496s a slog but it's a great way to start
20499s here
20500s yeah it it's getting control of that
20503s little doorway early right someone is
20505s able to put himself in there so he
20507s doesn't have to play around that corner
20508s you can put down a bubble and you can
20509s use it to kind of strafe around if
20511s you're high drum uh and Gator is no
20513s choice but to go in try and make a play
20514s he goes into a big headshot and at that
20517s time it's someone's opportunity to go he
20519s knows he's got a massive HP Advantage
20521s Glides down five times having to find
20523s him with a royal gun there check Mike's
20525s on crucially abstinent hydron doesn't
20526s get this sound barrier he's Ian James
20528s though the rain trying to push him out
20530s gets in that Rush also deployed by
20531s ultraviolet who really values that extra
20533s healing that it can give over someone
20535s Sports to go for the Primal Rage here
20537s Maja does have his kiriko ultimately
20539s online as well and he lets it Go someone
20541s needs to be attended to right now though
20543s trying to stumble away from the Atlanta
20546s Reign barely Clinging On That healing
20548s coming in picking fast for Martin
20549s they're kicking the Winston in the fight
20551s Gators Primal though is on the horizon
20553s yeah the kids here Rush is awesome for
20555s DPS but you also see just how much
20557s healing pump down I mean someone was
20559s really weak throughout a lot of that in
20561s a nice headshot there from Kai is I
20564s should be able to get the bot going
20566s this is what Atlanta Wright want they
20568s don't give up too much ground to the
20569s Mayhem early kit Nero here he goes
20571s trying to spin the Checkmate Cuts him
20573s down the Venn diagram of murder just
20577s in the Florida Mayhem are back in
20578s control
20584s even in terms of players Kai gets that
20587s head shot you got to be able to you know
20589s secure those fights it's kind of how we
20591s see a lot of teams end up winning uh you
20593s know engagements right with the sojourn
20595s opening things up with an early pickoff
20599s those are the fights you absolutely have
20601s to win
20602s 45 meters now that checkpoint looms
20605s large in front of the Mayhem
20607s just need to punctuate the sentence and
20609s there it is hydron
20611s that is beautiful full stop if I've ever
20614s seen one Kai silence instantly then the
20617s Florida Mayhem can double back the block
20619s does get away from them from a moment
20620s here cheekily the impitched Reign have
20623s three players to try him get it away
20625s from that checkpoint but it will swiftly
20627s move back into position
20629s enemy down
20631s every time it feels like the Atlanta
20632s Reign getting a little bit of an opening
20634s it's just the Florida man they bounce
20636s right back look how far they've actually
20638s pushed up through this choke and just
20639s letting the bot yeah sorted by one
20641s person get the checkpoint on the other
20642s side they're gonna get a large lead here
20646s Mitch which no we're not even halfway
20648s through the game but it looks very
20650s difficult to be able to bounce back from
20652s make no mistake this is a sick can lead
20655s to lead to hats so early in the game and
20656s the Mayhem look too extended now
20658s consumerous deployed but ultraviolet
20660s finds so much it brilliant headshot
20662s there with that kunai Checkmate is four
20665s step back up a little bit there right
20666s walk defensively used but someone is
20668s still showing Discord in the ranks and
20670s it looks like Kaya might have an
20671s audience with the King but someone gets
20673s taken down there is able to chase him
20675s Clifton with a Hellfire shotguns as he
20677s hastily tries to beat a retreat the
20679s Mayhem may have over extended themselves
20681s here but Checkmate again comes out of
20683s the oil hits him with the RKO and
20686s somehow Nero has to try and find a way
20688s to survive absolutely dominated uh it is
20692s always Checkmate and anima like alive it
20695s was like Route 66 he didn't end up
20697s winning that one fight uh that they were
20698s alive forever but uh man this time it
20703s feels like Atlanta they clear house
20704s outside of animal and animal just
20706s bouncing around on the bar there's a
20708s Lucio and you know scoring Checkmate
20710s around letting them just kill everybody
20712s he'd later Raiders short on options back
20714s they had to throw themselves in and hope
20716s Nero can find some value with the death
20718s Blossom of his own
20720s power Telegraph will they speak is the
20722s question Nero walking up he sees someone
20724s already try and put himself in between
20725s the two halves of the rain and that's
20727s the death Blossom they were looking for
20728s high trans gets his slide forced early
20731s there
20732s hey bro I I ain't seen a fight is done
20734s until I see chick needs body on the
20736s ground all right yep there we go Atlanta
20737s rain they win that fight right check
20740s check his pulse I'm not sure
20743s uh but now what you're gonna get the bot
20746s to just back around you know almost like
20749s the the middle of the the field kind of
20751s back to neutral and then you're gonna
20752s have another fight I mean you're you're
20754s like three four fights in a row away
20757s here for the Atlanta Reigns taking a
20760s lead or getting close to one a guy does
20762s Primal rights forced to travel but no oh
20764s Daddy's that's devastating you lose a
20767s Winston for hardly any reason it looks
20768s like gate is trying to go in but the
20769s rest of his team has a completely
20771s different plan he's isolated brought
20772s down ultraviolet massively able to pick
20775s hydron off here what must be at least
20777s medium range to at least keep the rain
20779s in this fight throws it to their Rush
20781s down and someone's gonna get picked up
20783s here oh the Atlanta Reign lucky they've
20785s got the talent to make up for the
20786s blemish at the start of the fight
20789s but how but but with what we've seen
20791s from them right they've actually gotten
20792s the first pick in some of these fights
20794s and lose them that time they actually
20795s win with the fight I know it's harder
20797s hold the phone Checkmate got a 9-1-1 but
20800s it is for him this time apparently only
20802s OG falling
20804s Atlanta right have a chance to get that
20806s first checkpoint here finally getting in
20808s the game
20810s and this is massive right being able to
20812s get that checkpoint now maybe it starts
20814s to get Florida a little bit uh you know
20817s anxious they end up using the death loss
20819s there they get nothing for it you know
20821s you got double support all coming in
20822s here for the Florida Mayhem so this is
20824s probably the most difficult scenario for
20826s the Atlanta Reign uh you know for the
20829s moment right you know 3 30 on the clock
20830s you're gonna see those come up again but
20832s you can win this fight somehow it would
20835s be huge for Atlanta oh the kitchen Eros
20837s gives them all they need and more look
20839s at those Elena Rand support ultimates
20840s nothing to work with not even two sticks
20843s to rub together that's the Mayhem to
20845s bring the fire in Fury and they keep a
20847s sound barrier into the next fight which
20849s may be the antidote to a katuna rush
20851s from the rain they need to watch out for
20853s Nero though they're dead Blossom
20854s something to be wary of
20858s yeah you do me good progress though for
20859s the Atlanta Reign uh and you get both
20862s support off well you have one support
20863s alt out so alamo's still with that sound
20866s barrier it's just this Bath's Gonna Keep
20868s ending up back in your territory on your
20870s side of the maps
20873s sorry he just turns Kai into a bouncy
20875s castle great there by Majid as well
20878s joining his Winston getting that final
20880s blow isolating kite at the start of the
20882s fight is a big deal he's gonna be a 2K
20883s death Blossom from Nero can it stem the
20886s blow
20887s looking unlikely now zero has to trudge
20889s away and there is no safe haven for this
20892s bringer of death
20894s and now you knew a scenario man where if
20896s you're Florida you can actually complete
20897s the maps Prime sound barrier overclock
20900s you probably this fight goes long enough
20902s where you get a death blossom
20904s uh you know there's a real opportunity
20907s with where you are in terms of meters
20909s you can finish the map but look at this
20910s Florida actually just moves the bot as
20912s far as possible and then just backs off
20914s they're totally downhill in Atlanta be
20916s the more aggressive they'll be the one
20918s who has to be you know proactive in
20920s these fights
20922s High awkward angle here getting
20925s pressured can I get enough damage down
20926s on someone unlikely now the sound
20928s battery room play this is
20930s a bit of a murder hole erected by the
20932s Florida Mayhem the Miro is down at this
20934s Primal raid kite about to get set to the
20937s circus Circa to see you later mate
20946s all right
20948s Cirque to see you later
20952s run out of budget for your ghost writer
20955s here later
20960s for my Ghost Rider let's go heavens
20964s oh
20966s that is sick that's quite a greeting is
20969s that common opportunity not sure
20970s Checkmate now it's gonna just fling
20972s himself in into this mess and doesn't
20974s even have to use a sound barrier Gator
20976s go to the wrong side of this one getting
20978s plugged with those shotguns guys are the
20981s Widow sometimes exciting this time maybe
20983s smacks again shot at their headshots Or
20986s Nah so that's uh that's the wrong clip
20990s yeah if you hide that Ghost Rider no
20991s okay bro yeah I I I I do actually pick
20995s though like oddly like the widows that I
20996s call here like with this like it's just
20998s a straight shot down the middle
21004s that is a difficult shot to hit
21007s Checkmate looks like he wants to get
21008s this done now that is brutal three kills
21012s with the death Blossom and the Bots he's
21014s about to get home the Florida Mayhem
21017s will persist to bring their brand of
21019s chaos to the lower brackets
21024s Big Win here for the Florida Mayhem the
21027s Atlanta rainbow they made it tough right
21029s playing a different roster here today uh
21032s than what we've seen through them
21033s throughout a lot of the regular season
21035s uh but still a really good showing a
21038s better showing than the other day
21040s absolutely tough match up against the
21042s Seoul Dynasty their opponents were
21044s definitely prepared for the Florida
21045s Mayhem but it's got to feel vindicating
21048s and definitely a proof of concept for
21050s this team
21051s said it a few times I'll say it again a
21053s very limited amount of time for the
21055s Mayhem to prepare themselves for this
21057s patch than their opponents so they
21060s really have to work from that
21062s disadvantage and they didn't expect all
21064s that much from themselves coming into
21065s this but they are still alive in this
21068s lower bracket overcoming the Atlanta
21069s Reign a Plucky team to be sure twice and
21073s they've sealed the fate of the rain
21074s don't know how many more times he could
21075s write on the ashes this season this time
21077s they're going home
21079s and typically we see Florida you know
21081s some really strong play from I know
21084s someone obviously shrunk play for the
21085s whole team
21086s um but like pop-off moments from someone
21088s and hydron but check they was
21090s unbelievable in this series on the
21092s reaper I mean constantly time and time
21095s again able to turn the tide in a lot of
21097s these fights is uh you know that that is
21099s a that is another dimension that this
21101s Florida Mayhem team will have as they
21103s move forward I know his Checkmate is
21105s going to be a scary opponent for a lot
21108s of teams on that Reaper I mean talk
21109s about a playmaker we've already talked a
21111s couple times about Reaper maybe lacking
21113s the same level of skill expression then
21115s Checkmate would find on something like
21117s Genji but my God he piloted it with
21119s great finesse considering the Brute
21120s Force approach that it often requires
21122s and of course Checkmate for talking
21124s about standout players is our player of
21127s the match incredible stuff and what more
21129s could you ask for in your Reaper to be
21131s dominated against the team who are
21133s shaking with their Winston use right or
21135s at least in terms of how they link up
21137s with Gator at multiple points across the
21139s maps I mean if there's anything that's
21141s going to punish that it's gonna be this
21143s guy
21144s oh and if they can keep him playing at
21147s this higher level with the type of play
21149s they get from hydron which I think
21151s hydron had moments especially you know
21153s in our final map here
21155s um but really you know him and Tyron
21157s kind of go at it you know Toe to Toe for
21159s a lot of the series yeah you know if you
21161s start to get like the high drone we've
21162s been seeing over the countdown cop this
21164s version the Checkmate I think this is a
21165s team that can make a deep loser bracket
21167s run doesn't matter what DPS this guy is
21170s on he is absolutely rocking his
21173s opponents before to make him and
21175s obviously want to recoup after that lost
21176s to Soul this is going to help them a
21178s heck of a lot in terms of maintaining
21180s some momentum into the next round of
21181s lower bracket play have a look at this
21184s north of 10 final blows per 10 from
21186s Checkmate but many of these kills are
21188s coming all at the same time and in
21191s situations when the Florida Mayhem are
21194s short-handed in terms of players that's
21196s what stands out about this guy you don't
21198s get to see play making potential in the
21200s numbers but you saw it by the eye test
21202s today this guy is the real deal
21205s a big value out of death Blossom as well
21207s like uh an ultimate that we don't really
21209s see a ton of value from but I think at
21212s the moment where you needed you know a
21214s player to step up and make a big play
21217s Checkmate did that consistently
21219s throughout this series whether it was
21220s Route 66 Esperanza Ike involved really
21224s just an overall great series from him uh
21227s and I think as we send off the Atlanta
21228s Reigns uh I think the Elena rain had a
21230s really good season this was a team that
21232s I think a lot of people were worried
21233s about like how are they going to adjust
21234s to five on five uh we didn't see him
21236s here today but I thought Hawk had a
21238s really tremendous year you know as he
21240s was kind of playing all different tanks
21242s throughout you know we saw speedily and
21243s Venom come in I know old G and
21245s UltraViolet you know really strong as
21248s some uh you know rookie support player
21250s so I think the future is still bright
21251s with the Atlanta Rings absolutely a lot
21253s of young Talent Matt excited to see
21255s where they go from here but for now two
21257s more teams awake judgment on this first
21259s of our elimination day stick around
21261s everybody for the Hangzhou spark and
21263s Toronto to find in their elimination
21265s game right after this
21289s the OverWatch league is brought to you

21540s welcome back to game break everybody I'm
21543s here with someone from Florida Mayhem
21545s for the post-match interview someone
21546s congratulations you guys did it how are
21548s you feeling right now
21561s all right after I lost yesterday I was
21563s feeling a little bit down and nervous
21564s but I'm just super happy right now to
21565s get the win against Atlanta Reign and
21567s you guys did it in an amazing fashion
21569s congratulations again now this match
21571s against the Atlanta Reign was a rematch
21573s of your first match of the playoffs so I
21576s mean this was the second time meeting
21577s the same team right so did you guys do
21579s anything differently coming into the
21581s match to secure a win against the
21583s Atlanta Reigns
21589s um
21621s foreign
21628s very first match that we had against the
21630s Atlanta Reign uh we sort of used the
21632s same cup and that was when Hawk came in
21634s uh to play the tank for the Atlanta
21635s Reign but we still beat them in sort of
21638s the comp mirror match but today
21639s different uh something different
21641s happened Gator came in but even when
21643s Gator came in we predicted that we're
21644s going to be that we're going to see the
21646s same exact thing so you know we didn't
21648s really lose hope we were kind of getting
21649s excited because we knew that we're gonna
21651s get the win and I guess we really wanted
21653s to push the tempo uh to really bring the
21655s fight to the Atlanta Reign and that is
21657s how we got the win uh against the
21659s Atlanta Reign all right uh next you know
21662s although this match was a 3-1 victory
21664s for the Florida Mayhem I do believe that
21666s Atlanta Reign really brought a good up
21668s good fight and really definitely give
21670s you guys run for your money so if you
21671s had to choose a player from Atlanta
21673s Reign that gave you the hardest time in
21676s this matchup who would it be and why
21677s what's up
21682s foreign
21718s all right uh I would definitely have to
21720s say it was um Nero from Atlanta rain
21723s because wherever I go wherever I was on
21726s the map he was always following me and
21728s whether it was my cheek or my butt he
21730s was slapping either one of those two so
21732s it was definitely a hard match for me uh
21735s to fight against Nero all right someone
21737s that is it for the interview thank you
21738s so much and again big congratulations on
21740s the woman says
21749s all right dusk back to you thank you so
21751s much Danny thanks a lot someone
21753s congratulations to Florida Mayhem yeah
21756s well Mira can slap all he wants it
21759s wasn't enough to take the Mayhem down
21760s unfortunately but let's discuss the
21763s match we just got to witness I also
21765s someone what a character I absolutely so
21768s animated so entertaining so fun in and
21771s out of the game so I very much hope to
21773s see much more of him and that Squad but
21775s yes I will say I will say we on our
21778s Bingo board over there we're not gonna
21779s show it right now we're not being a
21780s board we have silly walkouts all I'm
21783s missing from someone is a silly walkout
21785s all right and he would be like the
21786s perfect over Street character so that's
21788s all I ask I love you someone please give
21790s us a silly walk out give it Advanced
21791s we're very happy about that right that's
21794s that's all we need from you now uh
21795s gentlemen this was a rematch once again
21798s the Mayhem came out on top as a person
21801s someone's interview just now we found
21802s out that they didn't really need to make
21804s any adjustments any changes they brought
21806s the aggression to the Atlanta rain is
21808s there anything you felt looked different
21810s or was this literally just a repeat
21811s match dude
21813s well that was an answer
21815s um
21816s Checkmate clapping some Cheeks is what I
21819s felt this guy was going crazy like
21821s hydron of course was seeing a lot in the
21823s clips here the railgun shots were insane
21824s it's kind of what we expect from hydron
21826s at this point but checkmate's Reaper was
21828s kind of Thrones question just a little
21829s bit he started off the series kind of
21831s slow and then he just started dominating
21833s like a Nero on the opposite end of
21836s things he got a nice to play uh death
21838s bottom there it's also a fantastic
21840s Reaper like his Reaper playing his
21842s understanding of positioning and like
21843s how to force cooldowns from other
21845s players is exceptional
21846s um Checkmate he kind of had checkmate's
21848s number for a little while and then Jimmy
21850s just kind of took over the game his
21851s neutral play like
21853s um just leveled up and then his
21854s positioning his death blossoms which is
21856s so good like this one here specifically
21858s was crazy
21859s um I was talking a little bit actually
21861s in the Green Room about this it's
21862s sometimes difficult to tell when those
21864s healing cards from kiriko are gonna hit
21866s you so you see him go super low and then
21869s you see the flurry like a whole deck
21871s being thrown at the dude to keep alive
21873s and um just enabled by the rest of his
21875s team to just pop off I was super to try
21877s my desserts yeah I completely agree with
21879s that especially in this meta as well
21880s where Reaper can be so impactful these
21882s are late that blossoms like right here
21883s as well like this is like mid fight and
21885s Checkmate comes in during the fight out
21887s of nowhere with a huge death button for
21889s the rest of his team the Atlanta Reign I
21891s could definitely tell that of course
21893s they haven't had the easiest time
21894s adjusting to this Winston meta
21896s considering the fact that Gator hasn't
21898s been their primary tank player for the
21900s majority of this season that being said
21903s though I still think they put up a good
21904s fight here they want to map and they
21906s brought it pretty close at some point as
21908s well so the Atlanta Reign we know
21910s they're a very skilled team but in many
21911s ways like the Florida Mayhem like
21914s they're almost like course corrected the
21916s Atlanta Reign they took like what they
21917s had going with Kai and you know greatest
21919s gameplay and you know a good overall
21921s kind of like understanding of the game
21922s and then for the man came in it's like
21924s well we have hydron and like we're
21926s really mechanically skilled ourselves
21927s and we're super aggressive like I said
21929s going into the playoffs someone had the
21931s most eliminations and the most final
21933s blows per 10 minutes on this Winston and
21935s you can really tell when you watch the
21937s foreign play they have so much
21938s aggression and then they back up that
21940s offensive Winston aggression with
21942s amazing hitscamplay from hydron and now
21944s Checkmate as well so for the man they're
21946s looking really good heading into them
21948s yeah they're starting to look like a
21949s really scary Contender and might be a
21951s reason why none of the top City teams
21953s wanted to pick them in their first round
21955s as well they were thrown at Seoul at the
21957s very end and I don't know if so was
21959s super happy about that our last Soul
21960s came through and now Mayhem is fighting
21962s it through the lower bracket let's see
21964s how far they can take it but I do want
21966s to take a few moments to see off the
21968s Atlanta Reign what a season that's been
21970s for that Squad so many absolutely
21972s talented players on that team which made
21975s it all the way to the playoffs yeah I
21976s think I think it really speaks to the
21978s Florida Mayhem being able to take down
21980s the Atlanta Reign right here because
21981s whenever we talk about Atlanta rain we
21983s think about a team that is really excels
21985s in the lower bracket make these deep
21987s lower bracket runs but this time stops
21990s at the front door the first round of
21991s lower brackets but before this let's
21993s remain remember before the summer
21994s Showdown about the rain they made top
21996s three in six consecutive stages right so
22000s this has been a really successful team
22002s and I'm looking forward to seeing more
22004s from Atlanta rain going into next year
22005s of course I think they had some really
22006s good moments when it comes to their hits
22008s gameplay Kai for example early on in the
22010s year he was like an MVP candidate to
22011s kick things off in the kickoff Clash
22013s right unfortunately as the season
22015s progressed starting with the jokes
22016s matter it's sort of fellow for the
22018s Atlanta Reign and this was not the
22019s performance they wanted to show off of
22021s course but I'm really happy about their
22023s play overall this season I'm looking
22024s forward to seeing more from the Atlanta
22025s reign as we add in to the next year they
22027s have such a well-rounded roster like the
22029s back line the downstairs super stacked
22031s so yeah I would love to see more like
22033s late next season maybe but Hawk is just
22035s an absolute Beast like more from him
22038s place every uh every single day of the
22039s week like there's no tank he can't
22040s master no no there really isn't I mean
22042s there's a lot of bright spots on that
22043s roster so I hope to see more from
22045s everyone across the board thank you for
22048s all the entertainment you provided
22049s Atlanta rain and we hope to see much
22051s more of that now we are ready for the
22054s last elimination match after day this
22056s one will will be battled out between the
22058s Toronto Divine and a Hangzhou spark
22060s spark has been looking really really
22062s really strong and I mean they did the
22064s team they fell to in the end was the
22066s Dallas fuel they knocked him to the
22068s lower bracket that's nothing to be
22070s ashamed of because the Dallas fuel
22071s definitely one of the teams which
22072s everyone considers the absolute top at
22074s the moment so uh yeah I mean spark must
22079s be the favorite heading into this yeah I
22080s mean they're the biggest hard course the
22081s tournament right now I don't think
22082s anybody expected a 12th seed team to
22084s come in and explode onto the Lan
22087s environment as well as sparked it it's a
22089s little bit ridiculous like we we spoke
22091s about it on day number one but the first
22093s seed facing the 12th seed you're like
22095s okay it's a blowout not really like no
22098s Spock showed up I'd be a little bit
22100s nervous if I were trying to find right
22101s now uh the level that they're playing is
22103s just something we've not really exceed
22105s from them I mean I guess we've had
22106s little bright Sparks
22108s um from them in this season dude it's
22111s the easiest one in the world you don't
22113s expect me to hook my own sink in that
22114s one you gotta defy the with the ponds
22118s anyway
22121s for leveling up I thank God thank
22124s goodness responses to to like steer away
22127s from whatever was happening over there
22129s on the desk I do want to take a look at
22130s that win snare to add in this one that
22132s could be a big one and of course our our
22134s Winston extraordinaire from the desk and
22136s we'll break this one uh down Muse and
22139s Gucci who will have the upper hand yeah
22142s I wanted to break this down because
22144s we've given Gucci so much props here in
22146s the playoffs and he stepped up massively
22148s for his team and showing us some like
22149s real Nostalgia moments of course on this
22152s Wednesday you see fourth and hero damage
22153s tied for fifth in knockback kills but if
22155s we look on Muse Winton as well this
22156s season per 10 minutes second in final
22159s blows tied for third in Primal Rage
22161s kills not going to talk about the death
22162s stat which as he dies 14 both in the
22165s league
22167s out of 15. that is the second most in
22170s the league oh that one hurts but if you
22174s ignore the deaths the offensive stats
22177s it's a really good and as I think as I
22180s reflect on this Winston matchup I was
22182s quite disappointed Honestly by Muse's
22185s Winston performance in the previous
22186s match because I we know that he's
22188s capable of so um such amazing Winston
22190s play early on in the season that was
22192s like the Toronto defiant like Hallmark
22194s play like they were leaning on Muse to
22195s play Winston a lot of the time so I'm
22197s hoping to see better performances from
22199s Muse because I know what he's capable of
22200s on that Winston going up against some of
22202s the best winstons in the world
22204s but usually what a playoff season
22207s those two matches yeah yeah no it's
22216s it's a price if someone goes for Toronto
22217s Define not to say bring it up there
22219s isn't a possibility no wow Joss I
22223s thought you'd go with Toronto look I'm a
22225s Toronto defiant fan man you're a sin I'm
22228s a Toronto defiant fan only fan just a
22231s fan I'm a hop a big fan I'm okay but but
22234s spot look good look Goose way he kind of
22237s crazy like one of the best Winters we
22238s have in the league
22240s you're looking at those DPS players Rafi
22243s which shy like it's it's real yeah it's
22247s really hard to fight against the spark
22249s here at last we've seen a lot of upsets
22250s this could be another one let's see
22252s which team will stay in and which one
22254s has to go home and for all the action we
22256s hand it over to Matt and Mitch
22261s thank you very much Zoe yes
22265s 1333 days have elapsed since the last
22268s time the Toronto defiant faced off
22271s against the hung Jones Park and to say
22272s much has changed would be an
22274s understatement but the one thing that
22276s ties these two teams together they both
22278s had to fight to even make playoffs
22280s that's right both of these teams tooth
22283s and nail through the players to have a
22285s shot here at glory and so it has
22288s occurred that the hunger spark have
22289s emerged it just feels like The Meta
22293s really suits the players that they have
22295s on the roster uh seeing Gucci and he's
22298s just a master of that Winston role and
22300s then they'll shy up the soldier two of
22302s The More impactful Heroes we have in the
22304s meta uh them and then for Toronto uh
22307s they show the graphic of news right like
22309s we hadn't seen him for a while uh this
22311s team has really started to get on track
22313s and play their best when Hotpot was in
22315s in that tank roll uh so it'll be
22318s interesting what we see from them today
22319s absolutely that's not waste any time let
22322s us bring forth the Toronto defiant
22326s let's see what they've been working on
22327s Matthew
22329s come on you know they have another ton
22332s of time to work on something different
22333s uh Raiders hey who's that no I think we
22336s don't see a lot of variations so hot but
22338s will be in the starting lineup today uh
22340s which is interesting like do we see
22342s Harper pick up the Winston uh if he does
22345s like why did you play Muse the other day
22347s uh although he is like your Winston
22350s player quote unquote right uh this team
22352s has performed really good chemistry uh
22354s with Harper in the game so uh it'll be
22357s Harper finale chorong in Twilight as uh
22360s for me it's always been the supports for
22362s this team that's been the uh you know
22364s best part of it absolutely chorong and
22367s Twilight together just incredible we
22369s talk a lot about our All-Stars right I
22371s mean both these guys I'll be also I
22373s voted Patrol uh specifically I really
22375s thought that he had an incredible year
22377s we know that many teams wanted to draw
22381s this year they want to bring him onto
22382s his roster he was spoiled for options
22385s and so did a fire managed to snap him up
22387s this team's run through this season
22389s they've had some high Highs but in
22391s aggregate very much uh you know I mean
22394s midis are putting a little bit lightly
22395s but this team obviously wins and losses
22397s they've not been able to take it to the
22399s top teams when it counts outside of that
22401s incred incredible outing they had in
22403s front of a home crowd in Toronto they
22406s fight through the play-ins it's a scary
22408s opponent in the Florida Mayhem they go
22410s up against they don't find success there
22412s but they do come in second through that
22414s little tournament we underrate finale a
22416s lot we've done it for a fair while we
22418s talked about although in Finale the
22419s dichotomy of those two DPS to come in
22421s alongside tisu but when accounts finale
22424s has really stepped up in a big way very
22426s exciting Tracer play the Genji play has
22428s also been spot on not expecting to see
22430s that but their opponents today have
22432s emerged as a legitimate threat in this
22435s tournament let's bring out the Hangzhou
22437s Spark
22441s so I think this team has gotten uh you
22444s know a lot of hype after we originally
22446s saw them uh in this tournament I don't
22449s think anybody really knew what to expect
22450s then as soon as you started to see this
22451s roster you started to you know hear
22453s Whispers of what the meta was going to
22455s be you could start to see like hey this
22457s team can put it together and they can
22459s maybe make a run in this tournament uh
22462s interesting enough there will be no
22463s Alpha e in the starting lineup today so
22465s actually a pineapple we've seen play a
22467s ton of the Tracer in the past uh that'll
22470s be the only sub they make but
22472s interesting decision yeah I mean
22474s pineapple was really solid when it did
22475s come to the Tracer play uh you know
22478s getting uh you know starting to build up
22480s a little bit of a name for himself a lot
22481s of people were sort of surprised on his
22483s traces they ended up being seventh in
22484s the league and hero Damage Done per 10
22487s and awesome attack rate six that was on
22489s Tracer we might be seeing this team just
22491s pivot to a different Reaper player as
22493s these skill set you know he's
22495s encompassed by many many different
22496s players but Hangzhou are exciting for a
22499s couple of reasons shy
22501s absolutely a contender for one of the
22503s most destructive long-range hits game
22505s players in the league Tara was emerged
22508s as a real flanker someone on a kitiko
22510s that wants to play aggressively and
22512s actually use that Swift step to get back
22514s to his team when the fight begins and
22516s he's doing this while gooseway has the
22519s lowest depth per 10 of any uh Winston
22521s player in the playoffs so the fact that
22523s he's getting away from with leaving his
22525s team for a Time coming back and keeping
22527s kushway alive I don't know how you
22529s balance offense and healing so
22531s effectively but tarot is doing it
22533s I I also think it just usually is
22536s tremendous uh being able to use his
22538s movement in bubble and just kind of play
22540s around cover and get back to his team on
22543s the Whitson a way that not many other
22546s players in the world uh can do it's uh
22549s the first map in the series will be
22551s Oasis uh not sure how much like Maps
22554s actually are like super dependent right
22555s because the The Meta seems to have just
22558s formed around this Reaper Winston uh no
22561s kariko Lucio so Jordan comp uh so don't
22564s really think other than like Circle
22566s Royale you'll see like any deviations uh
22568s but with hop in the lineup with
22570s pineapple you never know
22572s so that's the question right not unlike
22575s the Atlanta Reign there's a tank change
22577s for the Toronto to find and the question
22580s is does Hopper hang with someone like
22582s gushway on the Winston or does he opt to
22584s play his more signature brand of you
22586s know what we used to know as off tanks
22590s I would say there's not many players in
22592s the league who can kind of like hang
22594s let's say with Gucci in terms of you
22597s know Winston play uh and for Toronto
22601s defiant like you know maybe Muse is like
22604s the better mechanically skilled Winston
22606s player out of the two I think that would
22607s be fair to say considering he's like a
22609s historical main tank player we've seen
22611s him play Winston and you know hot but is
22613s not uh but do you gain uh just in terms
22616s of like the teamwork and coordination
22618s with having hop in the game well he's
22621s called himself the big boss that's the
22623s title he wanted he's coming for it and
22625s he's going to be coming out on the
22626s Winston from somebody else I mean that's
22628s for a whole other conversation I will I
22630s will allow him to have it if he turns up
22632s here and is able to match Goose Ray on
22633s the Winston I'll make an allowance for
22635s that finale impression pretty heavily
22637s early on as both teams looks to control
22638s this High ground but in chai always
22641s seems to be opening up the fight for the
22642s Hangzhou spot
22643s [Music]
22645s get it can they bring in pineapple we
22647s were wondering for what uh specific
22649s reason we were like oh do they go for
22651s like a tracer variation no it's actually
22653s just for for a straight up Reaper swap
22655s so maybe you just kind of saw something
22657s the other day and the way that Alpha e
22658s was playing the reaper that they would
22660s have liked to see something a little bit
22662s different a different style of play uh I
22664s feel like that pineapple can better uh
22666s better bring that to the tape
22668s trading in that front line with hot bath
22670s for a moment there some repositioning
22672s from Reapers he needs to be a little bit
22674s careful gotta point out he obviously on
22676s that repeat here finale on the soldier
22679s finale does well here pineapple is
22681s filming this way Falls finale hang about
22683s this guy is anything but average what a
22686s turn up yeah yeah it comes through with
22689s a few big kills there as uh to you know
22692s what he Sue's been playing the sojourn
22693s for like a lot of the Season like a
22695s majority of the season so to see him
22697s swap a little bit different but we do
22700s know in the past right from like time on
22702s the Philly Fusion What Not Like Jesus
22703s Reaper is actually really strong I know
22705s playing
22706s uh playing that in the past so be the
22709s Toronto defiant take in the lead here
22711s shy getting close to this overclock he
22713s is so deadly with this ultimate
22715s so they're just trying to make you line
22717s this up set up a blank
22719s off angle here for shy pretty risky for
22721s Hopper to try and dive him from gear so
22723s guys allowed to persist in this position
22725s I'll take your Twilight my goodness
22728s descends upon shy can sooner Rush
22731s ostensibly you're only cues to really
22732s push him as he charges down the sojourn
22735s Terry though dips as good as he gets
22736s both soldiers falling to kunai in this
22738s fight the Thomas Bible rapes out and
22740s trying to disperse the spark but he soon
22742s is already brought down Tara with his
22745s second bear hung shows maneuvering now
22747s to retake the point
22749s yes they're gonna be able to do so but
22752s Toronto does get you know close to 60
22754s percent so usually is going to be able
22756s to make it back is hot best in a nice
22759s job so far right I know you were like oh
22761s like can he go Toe to Toe with Gucci I
22763s think you know hapa's looked fine on the
22766s Winston thus far I think it just kind of
22767s speaks to just how versatile of a player
22769s he is he actually takes pineapple out
22771s right away but that's gonna be finale
22773s falling at the hands of shine yeah you
22774s foreshadowed this over the clock you
22776s know to be scary and Shy's hands he's
22778s able to find finale but not much outside
22779s of that he's definitely posturing there
22781s for a death blossom little Telegraph by
22783s the looks of things there's the spark
22785s we're ready for it out of the picture
22787s now things get a little bit nastier for
22788s Toronto he's soon trying to stay on the
22790s other side of that just dropped the
22791s shuttle look at him come forward now
22793s posturing inside's Direction trying to
22795s threaten him here pineapple attempted to
22797s do the same thing but Hotmail has found
22798s Teru now and the Toronto to find
22801s starting to find their reinforcements
22802s Return To The Fray the big boss finds
22804s three
22806s it's uh it really makes you think like
22809s you know uh and he was obviously a very
22811s good player the main thing player but no
22814s uh a hotba that's really kind of spin
22816s where they've been the most successful
22817s throughout the season seeing Hoppa play
22819s uh for this team so you get hot but back
22822s in the lineup you start to see Good
22823s Things Early here against the team in
22825s the spark but everybody on the desk just
22826s picked the the spark right uh you know I
22829s was talking a little bit earlier I was
22830s like maybe this is what Toronto can win
22832s uh we'll say keep playing like this
22834s absolutely drop this as well you talked
22837s about it in the first time our playoffs
22838s take fights early and often and the
22840s defiant try and leverage that sound
22841s barrier to get an early lead in this
22844s engagement doesn't pan out though it's
22846s the spark rabbit or disengage they'll
22847s come back in with both their support
22848s ultimates in a matter of seconds where
22851s does Hillary go with these whoopsy
22852s cooking All Right Paving some roads is
22854s the play and pineapple finds chorong
22856s admits that can suit their Rush
22858s all right Reaper gets him speed boost
22860s gets right in in the face of Toronto
22864s there's nothing you do at that point
22865s right uh death blossom takes him out as
22868s we get to 99. take a look as uh you know
22871s super rich able to hold on to this sound
22873s barrier could be massive because it
22875s really looks like we're just gonna have
22876s one fight left uh in this round
22880s we'll have a kitiko ultimate for the
22881s defiant sound barrier for Super Rich
22884s here
22885s they're out of sync right now so I'm
22887s curious to see how they interact
22888s Twilight has to be careful takes a bit
22890s of damage before the fight starts super
22891s rich on the menu for hot buck so far
22894s he's able to Stave off the Winston
22896s hot by yeah discretion better part of
22898s Valerie knows he's people now to catch
22899s to the point in this after the spark to
22900s make their move super reaches sound
22902s barrier has all been expired but Hoppers
22904s life forces headed the same way as
22906s Terry's able to bring him down he's he
22908s wants to try and close the gap but he's
22909s knocked back super which has to give up
22911s the ghost though but shy is there able
22913s to find hisu now over clock is activated
22917s Twilight climb the walls to get away
22919s from him and it's not gonna be enough
22921s and it'll be a spa control this is scary
22923s finale can't quite get away chorum can't
22926s stall and it will be a hungjo round to
22929s start us off
22931s I mean you gotta feel that uh no that
22935s right there I I feel like the spark did
22937s not play up to the level we've seen them
22939s play right throughout the uh the week
22942s thus far ready I think if you're a
22944s Toronto uh knowing that you know you
22946s kind of I feel like leveled up your game
22948s a little bit but still falls short there
22950s at least in round one
22952s can't feel too great
22954s uh you imagine the spark are gonna you
22956s know
22957s it bring it even more as the series goes
22959s on right I think they can I think the
22961s spark can kind of like level up and hit
22963s a ceiling and maybe Toronto can I think
22966s just like the pace may actually be the
22968s thing that really does Toronto in but
22970s Toronto what I think with this swap the
22972s hot butt in a tank yet again I think
22975s this is a the right call uh but
22978s is it enough against spark this comp
22980s fits the spark like a club where it's a
22982s defiant have had to patch things up
22984s basically overnight Matthew
22987s shy getting the spark through most of
22989s the rocky ground in that previous round
22990s he goes five final blows for those three
22993s deaths
22994s here we go into that room in the
22996s left-hand side again it's shy he soon
22998s gets cut short as he tries to advance
22999s upon the spark and Mal Hangzhou realizes
23002s time to go
23006s Toronto they're just gonna stuck up
23007s there on The High Ground right he's
23009s gonna get ugly yeah trying to reposition
23013s not too shabby finale on the drive-by's
23015s able to find super rich but
23017s now losing turong there both sojourns
23019s giving a good account of themselves so
23021s far the spark still control the point
23023s and now they're corralling the defiant
23025s on it itself with finale going down shy
23028s doing his best work from The High Ground
23029s they're defined eventually must succumb
23033s ER there is no way they were going to
23036s win that rage it just kind of lurked
23037s there up on that high ground and
23040s if anything the sparkler just stabbed
23042s him there was like no way like they
23043s didn't have to be the team that had to
23046s engage like they're trying to find what
23047s had to cross the entire open area of the
23050s point to get to a spot where it's
23052s terrible for a Winston to fight in uh so
23055s Toronto not setting himself up in great
23057s position to fight early on look at this
23059s sideline from shy pretty punishing here
23062s of course he's going up that's so good
23064s ultimate already finale behind by a good
23066s old 20 percent
23068s you do not want to walk in this room
23069s while shy commands this space get tuna
23071s Rush may be an exception to that rule
23073s the shy is forced to give up that space
23075s but Hopper Dives in takes an absolute
23077s licking and Won't Get Out Alive
23080s you can look where the rest of the team
23081s is
23087s to live in I mean now they're just gonna
23089s are they just gonna stagger I mean look
23090s at this usually chase the players down I
23092s mean
23094s this is a bad luck for the Toronto to
23096s find on this round uh I would say is
23098s that now you got five ultimates here for
23100s the spark as they have played this
23101s perfectly here thus far Shai is
23103s accounting for 12 of his team's 21 final
23106s blows pineapples only had to pull one
23108s kill to put on show in this position
23110s very aggressive though and that is
23112s devastating now the defiant are losing
23115s their grip on this map
23117s and quite a uh quite an impressive
23120s fashion an absolute capitulation now as
23122s they are unable to assemble themselves
23124s in a way to challenge
23126s they didn't even need the Primal or the
23128s overclock they just pop on the
23130s celebration here at the end oh he's made
23132s out of the point got that sound barrier
23134s going as uh he will fall as man the
23137s first point very close the second Point
23139s not at all is the Hong Kong spark just
23142s dominant there the Defiance their woes
23145s are laid bare before you see ladies and
23147s gentlemen they've had to make some
23148s slight adjustments to their roster and
23151s it doesn't come out with a sterling
23153s result the spark of becoming an inferno
23156s right before our very eyes a very
23158s commanding second round in that Matt
23159s Matthew they're trying to find have to
23162s feel pretty boomed by that in fact they
23165s really didn't participate shy 17 final
23168s blows three deaths of a total of 23 for
23172s his team absolutely taking this game
23174s over Houston now sat on the reaper who
23176s is going to challenge this guy for now
23177s Ollie is gonna have to step up otherwise

23420s this is the absolute highest tier
23422s OverWatch that you really can get
23425s the hunters parking through the point
23427s they get it 70s but our questions for
23429s two to get the elimination
23435s four members in that fight shy is a
23439s one-man Army find Fifth wave pulled out
23442s immediately finds profit finds smart
23444s architect huge picking up four
23446s elimination with the blade itself
23448s managers go in it comes up with two
23449s quick kills ziziaki and lip both fall
23451s and gets a third for the Hangzhou spark
23453s they can absolutely contend with the
23455s best the best
23460s whatever changoon is cooking up Matthew
23462s I'll take seconds the Hangzhou spark
23465s settle into a very comfortable second
23467s round there on Oasis showing us that
23469s even with throttle's attempts at mixing
23471s things up they are behind the eight ball
23474s I love seeing uh you know the the video
23476s for the spark it just reminds you how
23478s many players on this roster man we make
23481s the we made the roster sides you know a
23483s little bit bigger I mean reinforced that
23486s happens they have a soccer team on their
23488s roster yeah
23490s acquire and acquire and talent
23492s everywhere is uh they kind of they
23494s dominate that number one I think about I
23496s think the first point was like pretty
23497s competitive back and forth I think after
23499s that uh it was all spark uh like how did
23502s the defiant bounce back from that
23504s because it seems like with the way the
23505s meta currently is it's really not like a
23507s thing you can go to right uh like
23509s another type of composition or uh you
23512s know variation that seems to be popular
23514s enough and successful enough that you
23516s can kind of Veer off well it seems like
23518s you're kind of stuck in this
23519s head-to-head battle can we can we go
23522s back to fundamentals for just a moment
23523s right because shy is 17 out of 29 final
23527s blows of his team over Oasis how are you
23530s how are you shutting down the surgeon
23531s like that how in general even because he
23534s has so much space to move he's having
23536s such a ridiculously outsized impact on
23539s the game
23541s it's difficult because
23544s like you're you're also trying to deal
23546s with gooshway who is extremely
23548s aggressive on the Winston can get into
23550s your back line seems to always be able
23552s to make it out uh so you're in this kind
23555s of pickle of trying to have to defend
23557s your back line uh you know from the
23559s enemy Winston by but also trying to put
23561s enough pressure on to shine uh that it's
23564s not just a firing rage just a shooting
23567s gallery out there
23569s very tough for the defiant to close the
23571s gap I mean we're on board with shy for
23573s much of that round especially in that
23574s second round University and he's just
23576s sort of playing got a left-hand side
23577s room and no one really wants to walk up
23579s on him no wants to try and close the gap
23581s because he basically always has a
23583s Charged whale at all times are going to
23585s be the second match selected here by the
23587s Toronto to find I've seen a ton of it uh
23589s so far in his playoffs here and there
23591s and again the same same issues are going
23593s to be present here for the Toronto to
23595s fight so a change of location isn't
23597s necessarily going to alleviate our
23599s concerns about them in that first map
23600s much like the Atlanta rain getting hot
23603s by in a position to to pressure the
23605s enemy backline and finding a way to shut
23606s shy down is going to be number one on
23609s the agenda
23610s great and and are the able to do that
23614s because I feel like it's not
23616s this could potentially be a fast series
23618s as I think the I think for Toronto like
23621s sometimes like you just end up in a meta
23623s like this where what you can't really
23625s play the way you would ideally like to
23628s it doesn't seem like Muse is the answer
23630s after we saw him the other day and then
23632s now not today right back with hot bomb
23634s uh you're just trying to make like the
23636s best out of the situation right uh where
23638s you're going up against the team who has
23642s all the mechanical skill in the world in
23645s the Hunger spark uh but it's sometimes
23648s they just have not been able to put it
23649s together but this type of meta you know
23651s you get those insanely mechanically
23653s talented players on like their some of
23655s their best roles and it's just a really
23658s tough draw
23660s cycling has been really exciting to
23662s watch us how Twilight has taken the
23663s Kirito uh he's looked very effective
23665s when it's come to you know that those
23668s solo play aspect right we even saw it on
23669s the first map he alts himself in Shy's
23672s Direction then he just ruins him so that
23675s was a really good look from him have to
23676s see if he can leverage that even more I
23678s thought we might see pineapple Tracer
23679s variation here but the reaper makes
23681s plenty of sense Twilight will probe
23683s early and then return to safety Well for
23686s now
23687s yeah just firing off a shot or two of it
23690s just getting back to the rest of the
23691s team is
23692s spark just put some pressure up in The
23694s High Ground and uh pineapple just a
23697s little bit too long
23700s Tara was the spy from TF2 there
23703s he is just a bit to the throttle
23705s Defiance yeah look at him like we got
23708s pink schemes now wait a minute The
23711s Imposter gets caught out
23716s oh man I feel like we need like a new uh
23719s I feel like we need a new term for when
23721s somebody is so far behind the Enemy
23722s Lines are just terribly okay he's always
23727s there oh not good finale yeah they
23730s actually die finale specifically this
23731s time as opposed to going out for info so
23733s I wonder if that first four raid just
23735s tips the spark off to where the sojourn
23738s was kind of playing on that high ground
23739s it could be hard to see from the low
23740s angle
23741s losing our players here though so
23743s Hungary should gain information but
23744s they're paying very dearly for it here
23746s pineapple get dispatch hotline there
23748s will be reinforcements on the way it's a
23750s matter of keeping pineapple standing for
23751s now while Terry was on his way back yeah
23754s that was I think they would have
23755s actually stayed and fought that a little
23756s bit longer but it was a really nice
23757s Follow by Gucci that blocks off some
23759s damage going into pineapple you don't
23760s want to push directly into that because
23761s you have the supports coming back so
23763s maybe this opens up a little bit of
23764s space here for the spark as uh the shine
23768s here up on the bridge trying to get some
23770s charged on the soldier in the land a
23771s shot upper takes a long way over gives
23774s hung show a fair bit of time to organize
23776s themselves before the Winston touches
23777s down
23778s but a Primal Rage already built by Alpha
23780s pretty solid early round from him leads
23783s his team in damage
23786s two minutes
23787s because uh because he did have finale
23790s and Charon both really low so you need
23792s to jump up there with like the bubble
23793s and get it Shy block that line and say
23796s for a sec where does hop a jump Primal
23798s has to be used there yeah he's probably
23800s feeling pretty exposed
23803s off on The High Ground
23805s rail did not connect by finale he just
23807s left sharp here out into the open a
23808s little bit more look for something of
23809s his own he also comes up empty-handed
23812s both teams building these ultimate so
23814s Goose way the Primal played on deck in a
23816s few moments here this could be dangerous
23818s it's gonna be super rich sound barrier
23819s now as pineapple tries to get a death
23821s Blossom off here no one's there to see
23822s but finale's already fallen
23825s oh an etp's right now still have this
23827s Sunil Rush here from the spark if needed
23829s in Gucci holding on to Primal oh okay
23834s tissue really forced the issue there
23837s shines out with just a just to park away
23839s from him there without the slide we'll
23841s have that available now some of these
23842s ultimates are just being thrown away by
23843s the defiant and here comes the katsune
23845s rush now finale forced to bait in that
23847s for the time being with T2 getting rid
23848s of his opposite number finale trying to
23850s lose over the Primal blade has been
23852s drawn in Finale can't do a dance thing
23855s about it batter's improves he sent back
23857s to spawn in pieces and Goose Ray will
23860s still let it fly this box cap
23862s get it yeah and yeah Twilight stuck here
23865s they'll fall
23867s come back rather quickly though
23870s and go get the payload start to get it
23873s moving here through the streets phases
23875s you know shy pineapple and Gucci you see
23877s that angle you know Shy's just trying to
23879s play from that I know staircase maybe
23881s actually get some damage down pick a
23883s player off give themselves a big
23885s advantage and a lead
23888s not too bad though from Toronto right my
23891s first point definitely shaving yeah
23892s healthy amount of time off the clock and
23894s decent rotations from hotbine finale
23896s especially
23899s when and where you drop down from this
23901s high crowd it's almost like the definer
23903s playing as if they're expecting the
23904s spark to flank left yet camping on top
23907s of this building
23908s yeah should I just jumping up and down
23910s putting in damage looking for this rail
23913s Junction trying to line up a kill Regina
23915s rushes their shot oh mate you're asking
23917s for it yeah he's not getting out of this
23919s 101 piece not a chance
23922s yes uh everybody from the rest of the
23924s team goes back towards the spawn he kind
23926s of veers off to the opposite side and
23928s Toronto realizes they just chase him
23930s down so
23932s you should put some pressure on Twilight
23934s forces the TP out
23936s so Hangzhou they will wait for Shai to
23938s come back in where they'll have a sound
23941s barrier for both teams here I know the
23943s overclock from Sean uh you know coming
23946s up much earlier than finale are you able
23948s to use the overclock and maybe just buy
23950s yourself some space right you know get
23951s the card around this corner open it up a
23953s bit
23955s hard for trying to find a great angle
23957s that's not on top of the building but
23958s that's an invitation for Hopper try and
23961s flat him
23962s okay this way goes up everybody the
23964s hunch responsible
23965s organize themselves on top of these
23966s buildings but is pineapple ready for
23968s this though his range walk is forced
23969s here but he's in the midst of it now
23971s protection Zuzu perfectly timed great
23973s delivery by Twilight means that he sees
23975s inoculator from any crack back of damage
23977s gets a nice little 3K
23980s how do you deal with some of these death
23983s blossoms that come down right uh the
23985s protection suits you the bubble uh you
23987s know giving you the uh you know
23989s invulnerability for a brief period of
23991s time in the Bob hold of just block
23993s damage at rain from going in and as the
23996s reaper is also knew using his ultimate
23998s and getting the life seal it's just uh
24000s actually almost impossible to kill the
24002s reaper in some of those situations well
24004s we're back in the Beyblade murder Matt
24005s of years and years ago yeah Isis desire
24008s bubble really whoa oh my goodness finale
24011s gets a face adjustment there is Teru
24013s materializes in front of him so easy I'm
24017s so filthy man
24020s like that that is that is extremely
24023s difficult to do on Korea like uh TP is
24027s up to The High Ground consuming rush and
24029s then just you know just domes him right
24031s in front of him I mean before finale you
24032s can even look towards him uh he's dead
24035s yeah again that's uh sort of rate of
24038s fire increase makes it much easier to
24040s guarantee against with those uh with
24042s those knives
24044s finale trying to wrap around here over
24045s Fox active but who's he going for not
24048s exactly a wealth of targets
24051s if this gate is big but hunter have to
24053s go now
24054s this has been all really good some
24055s classic play but they've got to finish
24056s the round
24058s with where to stop a sound barrier to
24059s use here and they're just gonna sit on
24060s the car they're gonna say come to us he
24062s Sue obliges great form gets him close
24064s without taking any damage but he takes a
24065s baseball immediately and hotpad's gonna
24067s get grilled on the cart jorong has to
24069s try and get there and so the spark play
24072s it safe and slow get the sound barrier
24073s when it counts and they'll have that
24075s second checkpoint
24076s that is so disciplined from the spark
24078s though like they saw the rush come out
24081s from Twilight they decided to back up
24082s not fight it there they know exactly how
24084s much time they have left once it ends to
24087s be able to go back and fight that they
24089s use the sound barrier they get right
24090s onto the payload uh they force the raid
24093s format of Easter straight away and he's
24094s the one who actually has to contest the
24096s payload at that moment they take him out
24098s everything else starts to fall for the
24099s defiant Matt Goose plays nine final
24102s blows and zero deaths out of a total of
24104s 19. almost dead lifting on the Winston
24106s with a perfect run so far and that's
24110s take into account how back and forth
24111s some of the fighting has been over the
24113s last couple of points I don't know how
24114s he does it he's having a huge impact
24116s right now and again Hopper are keeping
24118s up is just not an option it's about
24120s treading water at this point Jai
24122s aggressive play wrapping around he might
24123s have to wait out the sound barrier a
24124s little bit there as Hopper hasn't found
24126s him quite yet High Crown being
24128s controlled by hunger and of course
24129s kitsuna rash drops on the ground this is
24131s a fertile ground for the spark to plant
24133s the seeds of Victory trying to give a
24135s little bit of space as hot but still
24136s chasing shy but he is being healed up
24138s quite nicely a ton of pressure
24140s eventually he's gonna have to give up
24141s though so where's the follow-up gonna be
24143s will it be pineapple no Terry's brought
24145s down as well in the spark are repelled
24147s yeah you're gonna have to back up here
24149s if you have a spark is uh I never
24152s thought about able to make it out
24152s Twilight it's actually going to connect
24153s with the headshot
24155s so it's gonna be just gushway probably
24157s the one who's gonna have to get a touch
24158s your tuna rocks used
24160s sort of defensively here and then the
24162s fight able to push gushway back the
24164s Primal Rage he's gonna have to try and
24166s touch somehow and the spark are brought
24169s to a screeching halt here the last phase
24171s of part of his own credit to the defiant
24173s really I have to ride the lightning in
24175s order to stay in step of the spark
24177s across this map it's Furious fighting
24179s but great job by he shoot out eight and
24181s four on that Reaper keeps his team in it
24189s uh Force there you know to use the
24191s Primal just to get the touch then they
24193s force him out and like they know exactly
24195s the variety is going to take to get back
24196s they finish him off and they battle
24198s through really uh now a good Toronto
24200s defense you know on first point and
24202s second point they dwindle the clock to
24203s where it's about a minute and 30 or so
24206s uh for the spark to attack this final
24208s point which can be difficult to get
24210s because the defense has that High Ground
24212s able to hold can they do it on offense
24216s though in the scenario where the defiant
24218s have to be the more aggressive team can
24220s they take it to the spark
24223s for the matchup between Shire finale
24225s he's a little bit closer this time but
24226s it still doesn't really flatter finale
24228s again see him come out here on the
24230s sojourn definitely feels like a last
24231s minute adjustment he's only able to find
24233s two final blows over the course of the
24234s map
24235s a little bit tough for him and it's
24237s really going to be a matter of setting
24238s finale up for Success something I really
24240s liked about the Define in the past is
24242s that they were very good at creating a
24243s safe pocket fajita to operate in
24245s especially against teams who were less
24247s Adept at aggressive fast-paced kind of
24249s play they need to offer finale that same
24252s uh sort of space while dealing with like
24255s a dive cops not easy it's a very
24256s different matter I understand that but
24257s finale is not able to be set up for
24259s Success here so far
24263s maybe he's trying to find a shot here a
24266s little bit of damage nothing big though
24269s uh he'll go back to the reaper and I
24272s agree with you I also think it's really
24273s difficult because well one shy can do
24275s things like that but also like Terror
24277s has been cast like he's always like in
24279s the back line like right up in the
24282s sojour in space it's really difficult to
24285s deal with it's aggression
24288s so far so good though so fast in those
24290s scenarios oh yeah okay absolutely
24293s especially if you close that Gap somehow
24297s though getting a bit of breathing room
24299s now almost 45 seconds off the clock Here
24301s Comes
24303s kind of shooting into play Spike was
24305s hoping to rather shy was hoping just to
24307s line someone up there but the rail
24308s doesn't connect though from sends him
24311s packing love that aggression from the
24313s defiant here taking away humjo's safe
24315s pocket blowing them out on this first
24317s point
24319s yeah this should be a point a take for
24322s the defiant they just blow the rain out
24324s of the water and maybe it's a little bit
24326s of the spark being a little bit too
24327s aggressive that the Defiance are able to
24329s take advantage of I know you
24331s overextended so many different
24332s situations eventually uh you're gonna
24335s get God as that'll be that first point
24337s taken five minutes plus all right
24339s there's some fighting anything there's a
24341s fight of this defined team yeah man this
24342s is a fantastic recovery Jesu really
24345s still commanding a lot of attention and
24347s respect from the spark
24348s but they're on the white they're the
24350s finest uh don't even have to finish the
24352s map here keep this pressure on they'll
24354s be in good shades
24359s if they've set these set themselves up
24360s for you know an opportunity to do so
24362s right because now the Sparks they need
24364s to you know waste time and they need to
24366s burn clock here they need to play close
24368s they need to play aggressive win a few
24370s fights in a row in Toronto they come in
24372s with some ultimate advantages right off
24374s the rip and oh he falls right as he gets
24376s Primal he's probably playing for the
24378s Primal bear I'm gonna pop it but not
24380s able to do so before he drops we're
24383s waiting for The katune Rush maybe hoping
24384s for an extra healing output to make sure
24386s gooseway could hold up under that
24388s Onslaught that's out of sync as well and
24390s a couple of mistakes starting to muddle
24392s the mixture here for the spark they've
24394s given up an extremely large amount of
24396s space on the second phase of the map so
24398s much so that the defiant can now play
24399s from The High Ground that's gotta hurt
24402s feel like this is a must-win fight for
24404s the spark did you lose here and you give
24407s them like almost five minutes to just
24409s get that payload to the golden box of
24410s Victory this is one will be difficult
24412s for the defiant to lose all right finale
24414s knew it was coming from a come through
24416s us all I guess
24417s Gooseberry runs him down very quickly
24419s there's finale tried to make the play
24420s with that over the clock so here's the
24422s staging ground now a handhold has been
24424s carved out by the spark they have to
24426s spend for it though
24428s I mean you lose that fight you have to I
24430s mean if you lose that fight if you're
24431s the spark I mean you've lost this map uh
24434s it would be almost impossible in the
24436s scenarios uh four that's trying to
24439s Define to kind of beat it that bad right
24441s where the payload is not far towards
24443s that third checkpoint they'd have so
24446s many ultimates about five minutes
24449s pineapple yet to make a real name for
24450s himself on this map so far may not be
24453s required to be the Difference Maker as
24454s hop has already been filmed
24456s and solidify this defensive
24458s position she usually returns to the
24461s safety of his team
24463s this is burning more time off that clock
24466s you know you lose heart for that early
24468s now everybody's got to sit here they
24470s gotta wait Harper back to the fight I
24472s mean now we're like 30 40 seconds and
24475s they come right around the corner and
24476s here's another scenario where you now
24478s see all they had to use was death
24480s Blossom there get through that choke
24483s point you're gonna get down I know about
24485s a little bit above two minutes before
24487s this next fight kicks off I mean that's
24489s a full two minutes basically down the
24491s drain there for the defiant yeah hungry
24493s making up for the pretty average hold on
24495s that first point pineapple there is the
24497s proverbial Boulder in the uh the Indiana
24499s Jones Corridor you know it's such
24501s through a ruin all sort of Boulders
24502s rolled down at him completely ruins the
24504s Divine and trying to force himself to be
24506s fair through a choke a bit of a
24508s different approach to him but more
24509s Securities as they try and snatch up
24511s shine he's able to slip away sound
24513s barrier now coming later for the sparkle
24514s now rush in reserve Twilight no bones
24518s skip right to your finale's reduced to
24520s the PC needs to make the difference here
24521s but he gets shot down Shai is able to
24523s pick him off and that hot plus stands
24525s inside his bubble another attack foiled
24527s by the spark
24530s this is looking like a worst case
24532s scenario for the defiant
24535s both teams dump both support Alton to
24537s that hisu ends up with a death Blossom
24539s doesn't get anything
24540s in a in a scenario where he had above
24543s four minutes on the clock we're gonna be
24544s at like you know man 10 when this next
24547s fight kicks off Primal end over clock
24550s available for the spark also uh I don't
24553s know if you caught that the spark didn't
24554s even get Goose way with the sound
24556s barrier there he's not only three times
24558s and they didn't and they didn't like
24561s take advantage of it right I mean he's
24562s on the payload with the reaper the the
24564s win oh no they don't take advantage of
24566s it that's not a good hiding spot buff
24569s well he is now in a dormant uh for that
24571s door frame shy pins into it
24575s and now fighting through the streets and
24577s skews as the spark once again slapped
24579s the hand that reaches to the cookie jar
24580s of the defiant not having to get started
24582s there and they don't have a lot of
24583s resources to work with right yeah Hopper
24585s Primal maybe deny some of this High
24587s Ground away but he has to be very
24588s careful because there's a ton of damage
24589s that will come back at him in doing that
24590s finale how much can you
24593s how much can you rely on the Harper
24594s primer I mean we haven't seen a ton of
24596s hop on the Winston like can you
24598s guarantee these primals are gonna be
24600s you know Winston main kind of a mask
24602s right I mean
24605s also to consider pineapple he's just
24607s started popping off in the last two
24608s minutes now ten and six Hoppers having
24610s to get shy how about a battering him
24612s into the ground here the man keep up his
24614s life pretty he needs to be careful he
24615s spaces wall from Pineapple hoof he's
24618s dealing with an onslaught from behind
24619s him they're gonna wait who's my Primal
24621s Parker gonna wait here they're gonna
24622s wait here they're gonna have douche
24624s there it is with Primal and they're
24626s gonna have the consumer Rush buys a lot
24628s of time Goose way goes low pretty early
24630s pineapple with the death Blossom though
24631s the reaper copter has landed and has put
24634s out a commission pretty much straight
24635s away finale punches one of the
24637s gooseway's face and here's the defiant
24639s making a stretch for it reaching out for
24641s some victory 90 seconds left in the
24644s round and they're still in it
24646s it's about the same amount of time that
24648s the spark had at this moment uh the
24650s Defiance not capitalize on an awesome
24653s attack on point a the spark put up
24656s tremendous defense on point B and look
24658s at this uh you know a minute 30 on the
24660s Clock Team could both support all tier
24662s at this moment in time uh this may be
24664s just like one big Grand fight and that
24667s could be it double consumer Rush on this
24670s Higher Ground most likely God knows
24672s where terror is going to turn up and all
24674s that mess
24675s finale getting some tickets across the
24677s map here it's go time for the Hangzhou
24678s spark or at least it will be here we go
24680s sojourn crosses over Hopper like ships
24682s in the night and shy gets caught he's
24684s not slippery enough to evade capture
24685s here Goose wave Drives By the card he's
24687s gonna have the job and here it comes
24689s sound barrier now for the huncho sparkle
24691s he's to his hunting that dead possum
24693s available he'll wait out the sound
24694s barrier for as long as he can the
24695s gooseway back on the card finale okay
24698s the spark now have the numbers advantage
24700s and he's he might have to pull the
24701s trigger sooner rather than later he
24703s wants the pressure into the front of the
24704s fight but the kissing gate is so good
24706s from the spot and they keep contesting
24708s but they've lost two foreign
24710s put them in a lose-lose situation there
24713s and they'll snatch away a hotly
24715s contested second match
24717s and I think hotba really came alive
24720s towards the end there that the one when
24722s we were talking about like what kind of
24723s Primal are you gonna get you actually
24725s gotta kill onto shy and how do things
24727s open up there at the end hot but able to
24729s find shy uh I I was getting a little bit
24732s worried there but you're not gonna lie
24734s when super rich found finale and we were
24736s still a whole lot of that death Blossom
24737s on with ISU I was like oh you know when
24739s are we gonna see this happen you know
24740s it's getting down to the wire but they
24742s pull it out in the end as Toronto ties
24744s it up this is that great that composure
24746s that the defiant are gonna have to lean
24748s on for this entire series pretty
24750s important to find a map early here to
24752s shut up the spark who again with
24755s gooshway leading the way have been
24757s pretty indomitable so far gotta hand it
24759s to it this team has been one that's you
24761s know Fallen under criticism before for
24762s not being able to keep that strong
24763s mental they're doing it right now when
24765s it really counts map three everybody is
24768s coming up after this
24775s thank you
24791s qualification into tournament number
24794s three is still completely in the open
24805s now hawk in trouble separated from the
24808s rest of his team not before vigilante
24810s and OG get through that war is Hawk
24812s already dead Kai also falls and the iron
24816s terrain it may be Scrappy is double
24817s supports versus the tank or saying that
24819s not a supportive speedly Kai ends up
24821s falling and it's just a slug face
24824s the way Yoji gets two poops there both
24827s backbone and Harry sent to the drink
24829s what what is with this quarter just
24831s ridiculous plays by the way the Atlanta
24833s rain OG gets a double Boop an
24836s unbelievable amount of all charge for
24838s that beat plus extra meter Ridge ah the
24840s swing of the tempo of that fight
24844s yeah now I'm gonna jump over to the
24847s point itself just keep it locked in the
24849s middle for now zest with a HP and lip
24851s for his Carpe he used the debug command
24853s again after all someone needs to take
24855s away the admin privileges because they
24857s fight two for one trade void the only
24858s person going down so far for the dragons
24861s but that's enough
24862s [Music]
24864s it's too much he's gonna be fine just as
24867s well
24868s oh man it's fragging once again
24873s San Francisco don't have too much left
24875s so they do not want to be reactive here
24877s it's about setting the pace for San
24880s Francisco Toulouse tries to do something
24882s he takes so much damage it has to be an
24883s early commanding shot that only affects
24884s him Rampage is going to catch on a two
24886s from Kellerman properties there oh my I
24888s don't know how he gets Flora sevens the
24890s Achilles from below and that's four for
24892s proper fantastic blade kellen's really a
24895s footnote at this point he can't achieve
24897s anything on his own in San Francisco
24899s convert get a losing fight in a spawn
24901s Camp scenario into a huge win
24908s and there's the blade to seal the deal
24910s double knifing coming in for krong etu
24913s Brute
24915s because they will now have been Dane
24917s following up on his kills and pushed all
24919s the way back to the spawn room again wow
24921s this is the song Classic at the moment
24923s amount of Lucia popping up on the kill
24925s for you just a little bit there
24927s rampage versus Rampage again Mary's is
24930s pretty big a counter Rampage from Dante
24932s aimed it straight at mirror King and
24933s mirror in trouble blade pulled from
24936s Pelican straight to the back his fancy
24938s footwork looking like whoops out here 4K
24941s for Pelican well 5K in fact 4K with the
24944s plane Pelican getting it just a random
24947s solicit at the very start of the fight
24948s oh
24950s this guy's pretty good
24955s [Music]
24961s [Music]
24981s foreign
24985s [Music]
25009s [Music]
25014s foreign
25015s [Music]
25039s being rewarded after a steadfast hold on
25043s defense the Toronto defiant are finally
25045s able to break through the Hangzhou spark
25048s and claim the second map of the series
25051s to say it was close may be an
25053s understatement it went down to the wire
25055s and the spark do let it slip but it got
25057s ahead of Toronto to Toronto rather for
25059s managing to pick up the slack they
25061s demonstrated in that first map now
25063s they're here to play
25066s yet now this gets interesting right uh I
25069s think Toronto you gain a whole lot of
25072s confidence being able to win that map uh
25075s battle through some really tough
25076s scenarios uh even in this area where it
25078s didn't look good right where they had
25079s about you know five plus I think or you
25082s know a little bit close to five minutes
25084s to get that second checkpoint and we go
25086s all the way down to like almost OT and
25088s then they're able to battle out in the
25089s end uh can they win on a spark map pick
25092s as a sparkle pick Route 66 so a little
25096s bit more of a an open area maybe it'll
25098s punish Hoppa a bit more
25101s you can see how paraizo makes it a
25103s little bit hard at times for sojourns to
25105s to bring the same value with some of
25106s those more open maps right both finale
25108s shy relatively quiet
25111s like I mentioned a couple times this way
25113s was you know at 1.9 and one we're
25115s leading his team in those final blows
25117s definitely being able to have an impact
25119s but really a whole team performance from
25121s the defiant wind them down it's gonna
25123s take more of that again is the Spiker
25125s gonna look to get their High Flyers in
25126s position to pop off and Toronto need to
25129s make use of what they have here yes it's
25131s been hurried as far as we can tell the
25133s reassignments that have occurred on
25134s their roster but it's good enough to get
25136s that last map it's good enough to give
25137s the winds here if they can maintain the
25140s momentum they've just built
25142s and I think you go here if you're the
25144s spark because you can force Hopper to
25147s play Winston on a map that can be pretty
25149s punishing at times right really long
25151s sight lines now no
25153s ranged healing I mean kariko but it
25156s takes a little bit in terms of travel uh
25159s where it can punish half of her being in
25161s the wrong spot a lot of times and if you
25163s trust that you have blue shway I mean we
25164s saw the stats guy basically Never Dies
25166s uh yeah he has a it's just fantastic
25170s track record on wins being able to live
25172s and get out of really difficult
25174s situations so come here to a map like
25176s this and you know force force hot better
25178s level up but I will it's kind of scary
25180s man like Hoppa hoppa's like such a
25183s what's up uh we have no player like him
25185s in the lead right I mean what season one
25188s you can think back when
25189s he's on Billy you're seeing him play
25191s like Tracer and stuff at times like uh
25194s you know just then he goes to New York
25195s playing like all the types of Tanks
25197s comes in this season he's picking up
25199s main tanks like whatever right I mean
25202s just
25205s so talented uh a hot box so many
25207s different Heroes so talented OverWatch
25210s player really absolutely
25212s real generalist I guess now picking up
25214s the Winston which makes a big deal Goose
25215s race very much a specialist right
25217s Bernard uh piloting a lot of the tank
25220s play for the spark up until this point
25221s but gooseway knows he's just well suited
25223s for this kind of metagame so for Hopper
25225s to stand up against him he's a big deal
25227s he doesn't need to have the same stats
25228s doesn't even have the same killer death
25230s ratio it's about impact
25231s Hoppers had one so far make no mistake
25234s this map though is going to test you
25236s fundamentals when it comes to the dive
25237s coordination
25238s already he's with hot bro take a little
25240s bit of damage as they try and make the
25241s dive Hopper injects
25244s so they do not get the spark off of the
25247s top of big girls they'll actually not be
25249s able to move the payload okay now Harper
25251s gets on he's gonna play from a little
25252s bit underneath and two three season
25254s players in the back thinks he can dive
25256s in that shy caught out of the play
25257s entirely there a nice little bubble uh
25259s by hopra I think obscuring is it Vision
25261s as crucial tries to cut off the defiant
25264s as they attempt to make a bit of a plank
25266s doesn't work at all great way for the
25268s Defiance to unravel hungjo go for goose
25271s way first
25273s so that I mean that is best case
25275s scenario right like rarely
25278s are you able to capitalize on Gucci you
25281s know maybe making it a little bit of an
25282s error as hot but jumps up
25284s fires a shot just to check and then
25286s deter them from coming in but they want
25288s to come in try and contest anyway
25291s good position there for
25296s more innovating the enemy Reaper he also
25298s tends to evade the objective and that's
25300s a tough one for the spark now caught in
25302s a position where it's uh fight or die
25304s maybe a bit of both pulling shoes this
25307s match just you know and when you can
25309s feel a little bit of silly coming along
25311s I feel like this this one's about to get
25313s designed this match is about to get wild
25315s I feel like we're about to be here for a
25317s while is uh right there the spark they
25319s decide they want to try and take a bite
25320s they wanna they wanna contest they just
25323s get off for a split second and Toronto
25325s is able to you know cap that first point
25327s four minutes plus in the time bank look
25329s at this I mean they didn't really it
25331s didn't cost anything to do it I hope I
25333s can play pretty aggressive because
25333s that's gonna be Twilight with a consumer
25335s so look at that uses on the rooftop
25336s there yeah he knows that everyone's
25338s lined up coming out of the tunnel match
25340s so you just Spam that choke exactly that
25342s increased kunai fire rate makes a big
25344s difference especially if he's connecting
25345s headshots now that's not really the
25347s story of that last fight getting rid of
25348s again he's targeted again he's brought
25350s down first
25353s that's why you want to free fire that
25355s doorway because shy just rounds the
25357s corner and just takes finale's head off
25359s got home available here for Hotspot
25361s though too lots of payload progress
25363s console moving right now though instead
25365s of mine Goose way I think he's been able
25366s to beat the cat amongst the pigeons so
25368s to speak and already get rid of Twilight
25369s now Hopper feels a little bit out of
25371s position but getting to shy out
25373s of the mix is a big deal here then if I
25375s can return to the car and get a movie
25377s once more
25379s they don't usually stuck at the top
25381s there and that's gonna be the sound
25382s barrier from both teams it's only going
25384s to connect to three players from the
25385s spark we need a big Primal plane we need
25387s it now for the spark
25393s slowly a bit of contest now Bruce Ray
25396s gets away again and pineapple brings
25398s finale down
25400s well without Super Rich that hurts a
25401s little bit for the sparkle to have a
25403s consumer Rush here in reserve and
25404s pineapple if you can play with that
25405s ultimate but it goes down he's who drops
25408s out of absolutely nowhere brings him to
25411s his knees
25413s he comes a little bit on the on a flank
25415s where you're not able to see him the
25417s Sunni rushes drop by Teru but they do
25419s not see hisu coming from that backside
25421s with that death Blossom comes right in
25424s behind the kariko
25426s uses the reaper alt is Toronto seems to
25429s have a caught on fire here after map
25432s number one second point on map number
25434s one was so dreadful for the defiant uh
25436s you were like how do they bounce back in
25438s this series but they're looking strong
25440s over these last two thus far yeah what's
25443s not as a gentle stream starting to turn
25445s into a rush of rockets and Sparkle
25447s losing their grip on this game little by
25449s little it's absolutely happening three
25451s minutes 50 on the clock for the Toronto
25453s defiant they come on this High Ground
25454s for now despite Goose Ray's attempts to
25457s claim some space he's been staged off
25460s Time After Time
25462s China trying to make the play again
25464s overclock in play in the Defiance I
25467s don't have to see much of it here
25471s the Toronto they decide to back out so
25475s gonna hold on for a split second okay
25477s get an idea where everybody's at I'll
25479s pineapple excuse the race point right
25480s away look at the timing they use that
25482s window that are flying to come forward
25483s with the katuna rush the spark very
25485s quickly grouping up super rich cleverly
25487s had that uh had that Crossfade available
25489s to speak them away
25491s the sparkle look how much spice they've
25493s just given up they're sitting in the
25494s back room right now you're so weak a red
25497s sacking they're sitting room fanatic get
25499s rid of shy there is absolutely huge
25501s shine nullified over the last map and a
25503s half and here comes in a fire for their
25505s last push with three minutes on the
25506s clock a blistering Pace this spark don't
25509s even have a sound barrier to answer this
25510s that a fight are starting to run away
25512s with it pineapple trying to stop this
25515s somehow with a death loss of at least
25516s able to force them to find a way and shy
25518s finally gets involved Matt
25521s I mean for all that that is a must win
25523s scenario uh Route 66 is a difficult map
25526s to complete historically to finish that
25528s with like 240 on the clock
25532s
25534s ing Twilight
25536s Zone
25541s I appreciate the irony here he's waiting
25545s for a 1v1 or maybe I don't know Ops
25547s against it he had the opportunity to do
25548s so many facts that number's Brewing
25551s that's for sure
25554s two minutes and seven
25557s yeah
25561s Gotta Give the moment the appropriate
25563s parameters
25586s Godzilla trying to hide behind a fire
25588s hydrant
25589s sir
25591s two good defenses there from the spark
25593s here towards the end of the map
25597s don't concealing a rush from either side
25598s super rich but hold on the sound barrier
25600s for a bit so that'll benefit the spark
25602s here later in the round uh can you get
25605s kisu like on a flank possibly maybe
25608s that's your kind of play he's been able
25609s to do so uh a few times here on Route
25612s 66. yeah how many Shadow steps across
25614s that Gap in order to prevent himself
25616s from getting kicked off by shy but also
25617s to hide his food pretty clear when
25620s Reaper comes to play kind of announces
25622s it
25623s finale's overclocked here most of it
25625s again trying to be used to nullify this
25626s way's impact key though he's pretty
25629s discreet about this jumping back to the
25631s rest of his team here hung show
25632s disengage
25633s well gooshway takes a ton of damage and
25635s then as he's going back here's the
25636s overclock cop that uses the Primal just
25638s to make sure he doesn't die during that
25640s DC model like the range walk off the
25642s back uh a rather deathless mother back
25644s in the right walk but not too I think
25646s outside the bubble a little bit there as
25648s he's forced to play from its extremities
25650s pineapple runs it down eventually as
25652s he's who had no more ability
25654s maybe not the worst thing though for the
25656s Defiance uh you know there's just gonna
25658s be a death Blossom here the payload's
25660s still very close to completing the map
25662s the defiant Gonna Come Back
25664s sound barrier primal
25666s death Blossom three very strong
25668s ultimates uh you know combination with
25670s each other so you'll have the sound
25672s barrier to combat the death Blossom
25674s through pineapple here this is so
25676s important for pineapple he needs to
25677s White out the sound barrier or get in
25679s before it comes down I don't know about
25681s that one shot gets his bell wrong there
25683s and Hawkman jumps on in pineapple at
25685s least that would have bait out the death
25686s boss of hoppers in Primal right now and
25688s pineapple's in a bit of a rough spot if
25690s he gets knocked back towards his
25691s opponents he could be dead to rights
25692s here in the plank for finale he's pretty
25694s scary pineapple surely not going to go
25696s for this he can't comes out of rape walk
25698s he's very low in hell but finale's down
25700s shy is starting to fire up again
25702s I I we gotta get a replay of that I
25704s actually believe that that could have
25706s been a game-changing play there from
25708s gooshway so the sound barriers going
25710s down I believe kushmate bubbles it and
25712s it actually only hits chorong I believe
25714s they don't actually get any benefits of
25717s that sound barrier let's take another
25718s look at it but uh you know that big
25721s sound barrier we were talking about
25722s where the Defiance were you know holding
25724s on to that for a little bit believe
25726s gushway actually jumps right on top of
25728s him gets it with the bubble and
25730s obviously the the Winston bubble blocks
25731s that line of sight uh it looks like
25733s that's why it only connected with like
25735s you know I think it was just Char on
25737s there in that final moment as I know
25740s that's a huge game-changing play I mean
25742s that is
25743s subtle right as we're in the midst of
25746s this you know pretty intense fight but
25748s could change the whole direction of this
25750s entire series what a moment from Goose
25752s way there yes let's take a look at it so
25756s time
25764s [Music]
25766s oh my goodness oh that is so good uh it
25769s in like it's not a large jump in the air
25772s to put the bubble down right because it
25773s wouldn't have gone down fast enough the
25775s the barrier would have actually just
25776s kind of been like Falling Towards the
25778s ground uh he actually just you know just
25781s drops the bubble uh instantly right over
25783s the top of them I mean just the reaction
25785s time there from Goose way is just sick
25789s jurong there
25790s a player who has really been on our
25793s radar all season for being incredible in
25795s this Lucio role absolutely shut down and
25798s the one ultimate the spark we're
25800s depending on for victory three two is
25803s not an issue anymore
25805s it's ridiculous
25807s love to see that from Jewish way all
25809s right the spark have a chance to back up
25810s that showing now on offense
25813s which Again In fairness parries a little
25815s bit shaky I think it's safe to say
25817s yeah
25819s what's up
25822s see how the spark go about on their
25824s offensive side as they feel like the
25826s momentum is all spark early on in the
25828s series it just feels like Toronto is
25830s just like flipped it completely so
25835s he used to really low has to back out so
25838s I'm not trying to make a play for The
25841s High Ground here this far I almost just
25842s kind of like play in this corner maybe
25844s allowing shy to just get some space
25847s now they're scaling up their control of
25849s this part of that really slowly but they
25851s have that high ground right I think
25852s they're the fact you wanted to
25853s re-establish that kind of control
25855s maybe a little bit out of sync for the
25858s rest of his team there takes a ton of
25859s damage Force the suzu now
25861s we might see the defiant drop off and
25863s try and punish the sparking up inside
25865s big girls here
25866s finale's rail goes through his way but
25868s shy
25869s well he's found to issue already make it
25872s to that space that the spark are trying
25874s to create for sure really start to pay
25876s off now
25878s yeah because they don't want to play
25880s that aggressive with that win so they're
25881s in that scenario the way they wanted to
25882s play that was
25884s literally creep around the corner right
25886s exchange damage and then shy gets around
25889s the corner and does what he does right
25891s land some big railgun shots
25894s are they going to be able to even
25895s recontest here so Hopper gets on but he
25897s takes a huge shotgun shots England he's
25898s too he's really low that just dropped
25900s the shot a big play there as well hard
25901s for Homer to repossess when he slowed
25903s down like that he's lined up finale he's
25906s going to be in trouble as well Hunter
25907s putting it together really nicely in the
25909s last couple of moments pineapple being
25911s the man of the door there couldn't ask
25913s for a better person to call that role I
25914s think already a headshot a close range
25916s on Hopper before he gets to peek out at
25918s all
25919s yes I mean well hotba has to do like uh
25922s you're been in that situation where
25923s you're Winston right you kind of can't
25924s get like the whole leap like he kind of
25926s has to LEAP his head almost like hits
25928s the ceiling and then kind of like just
25930s ends up uh coming straight down right on
25932s top of the card like he has to do that
25934s type of you know leap right out
25936s basically into this
25940s area this is the spot that we saw
25942s Twilight in right where he was able to
25944s sit up here on the high grounds
25947s just to get out of that spawn door it's
25950s uh not the ideal scenario but you feel
25952s like it's a one you have to fight here
25954s if you're the defiant coffee stuff will
25956s help my mechanically bold and proficient
25958s there in the Winston now to get away get
25960s in that jump reset after the Primal Rage
25962s pretty important if I want to keep the
25964s stage around here in the second phase of
25966s the map but they have been forced to par
25967s with much of this real estate
25969s pineapple can't do much out of the open
25972s right now it needs to wait for his team
25973s to close the gap
25978s might have been there from drawing but a
25980s little bit premature he's not in a great
25982s position to find much more than shy but
25983s that might be the Difference Maker
25984s anyway I think Subaru sends him
25986s careening in a different direction
25987s pretty good what he came for he got the
25989s sojourn the defiant are able to
25991s capitalize
25993s from pineapples POV with the death
25996s Blossom through the air looked like a
25998s little a Reaper helicopter just flying
26000s on by it's uh looks like it was just
26002s like a boot possibly from Subaru just
26004s sent him up in the air but still good
26005s enough for the defiant to get a hold uh
26008s interesting from the spark they actually
26009s you know Gucci jumps up with a TP the
26011s same time as pineapple Terry Swiss steps
26015s to them and then drops the casino rush
26017s like on the ramp and Twilight just
26018s answers with his own uh so kind of can't
26022s use a lot of your movement abilities get
26024s up in that position for really uh
26026s nothing you can actually fight out oh my
26028s goodness what is this Turing sound
26030s barrier not enough there is that a Brian
26032s actually filtered themselves into this
26034s Corridor shiny they were coming through
26035s he's throws down uh he throws out the
26038s disrupt the shot like a bag of dumpling
26039s lit on fire on a doorstep
26042s took the Spock announced some regroup up
26044s here and a second there committed to
26046s that they're defined how to clear plan
26047s that's obvious oh finale
26052s hello a long way final Warfare 2 spawn
26055s Camp yeah he's a he's a little bit uh
26057s you know it's in the Terry Zone I would
26059s say is uh he's gonna slide he's actually
26062s gonna get out
26064s that's crazy oh my goodness
26068s absolutely ridiculous finale comes down
26071s to disrupt the shot pineapple doesn't
26072s quite know where he is but Goose right
26073s now is on the Rampage finale in Twilight
26076s get their heads knocked together
26078s in the spark despite those hijinks or
26081s having to take an advantage here in this
26082s fight with his way out of the pitcher
26083s you have to think they're looking to get
26085s this checkpoint here with a minute 46 on
26087s the clock
26089s so you slept hard for their uh yeah
26091s you're not going to use Primal not gonna
26092s try and fight that I won't say though
26095s this has been a good offense from the
26097s spark I still think this is going to be
26099s really difficult to do I mean you
26101s essentially have to get a full map
26103s completion which is really hard on this
26105s map especially with how close that
26107s defender's spawn is there towards the
26109s end uh
26111s even even three minutes plus is like
26115s really difficult to complete this map on
26117s so if you're the defiant you're probably
26120s like you know what we're not gonna hold
26122s here on checkpoint B let's just try and
26124s save some ultimates and then fight again
26126s who's always being tracked constantly
26128s it's so hard for him to do just be doing
26130s over the last couple of matches
26135s these for him they do expand the
26137s consumeration in order to win that fight
26138s but they're more than happy to solidify
26140s their positions here up on this High
26142s Ground
26144s you you invest early here right if
26146s you're the defiant keep the payload at
26148s this corner and you start to dwindle
26150s some of this clock down right a minute
26152s 30 kind of creeps up soon
26154s here for the spark no this fight's gonna
26156s probably kind of either kick off on that
26158s or end around that uh and if you're in
26161s this spot you're in a position where you
26163s have to use these ultimate sometime
26165s again I mean that is a sick takeoff
26166s there right at the start it's this
26168s double pink right around the corner
26169s pineapple pulls the right Hulk here they
26172s are not giving up the chase here super
26174s rich falling as well he too realizes
26176s he's playing inside close confines and
26178s goes for the ultimate Justin Lucio
26180s though looks like the spark can probably
26181s bounce back from this but Terry
26183s reluctant to go for katuna Rush here
26184s he's wanting to patch up some of these
26186s wounds
26187s and that's what I was talking about like
26190s you're gonna get exactly to that minute
26191s in 30. and you're forced to use these
26193s ultimates in this type of situation long
26195s flank from finale very long one can it
26198s get into the fighting time to make a
26199s difference and children who swear as he
26201s tries to return turns his head towards
26203s the soldier and flanking and pineapple
26204s is happy to commit the whole ultimate to
26206s get rid of finale pop announced in deep
26209s trouble know where to go who would hide
26211s the hunger sparked now with balls in a
26213s minute and within Striking Distance off
26215s this third map
26217s I don't feel like you needed to invest
26219s some ultimates there if you're the
26220s Defiance like the you could have held on
26222s and fought here at the end with those
26224s ultimates because you need a map
26226s completion now you give them Primal
26228s sound barrier and an overclock to get it
26230s done away he's just gonna make it a
26232s nightmare for the Defiance to actually
26233s get in position to adequately defend an
26236s inside sport finale is put to bed
26238s doesn't even set foot outside of his
26240s house and the Hunsley spark snap your
26243s way route 66. oh it's another hard four
26246s one make no mistake but shy comes out
26248s with 19 final flows and eight deaths
26251s just going monster mode in that second
26253s half
26255s it and I feel like that is one where the
26257s defiant you'll go back and re-watch that
26260s and you'll you'll wish you had played it
26261s a different way uh in that type of
26264s position it's so difficult to complete
26266s this map you have some ultimates here
26268s you don't need to kind of get in that
26269s position where you train right you need
26270s to get the spark to deplete their
26272s ultimate Reserve then come back and
26273s fight again and right at that final
26276s point they end up using everything and
26278s then nothing to fight at the end with it
26280s ends up burning them
26282s coming alive key moment there towards
26285s the end of that map this is definitely
26286s the kind of Series where the fatigue is
26289s going to set in so who at last see is
26291s the Toronto to fight must win the next
26293s map to stay alive in this elimination

26552s to this final elimination match for the
26555s day at the OverWatch League 2022
26558s playoffs and let's highlight Terry there
26560s a key component I'd like to say of the
26563s Spark's success happily there's eight
26565s final blows some of those unlikely
26567s eliminations the final blows and
26569s situations you just don't expect terror
26571s is delivering really showing us both
26573s sides of the coin when it comes to what
26574s kiriko offers offensively
26577s dude he has been sick on this hero as uh
26580s we've seen multiple ways I think players
26583s have uh adapted and played karika uh
26585s throughout the playoffs thus far uh
26588s Terror we just see he gets right up in
26590s the mix I no fear from him uh I think
26593s back to uh Paraiso right where he uh
26595s tp'd up to The High Ground just
26597s two-shotted finale you have to continue
26600s to rushed right after it uh just such an
26603s aggressive style I'll play on the heroes
26604s really fun to watch
26606s absolutely uh you know a playstyle that
26609s looks kind of risky on the outside but
26612s of course with Swift step available
26613s perhaps it's much safer than we realize
26616s at first glance here is Terry's quite
26618s often sort of rejoining the rest of his
26619s team I will say Goose Ray is getting
26622s harder and harder to keep alive because
26624s the Toronto defiant with their season on
26627s the line are starting to zero in on this
26630s Winston threat Matthew he has a much
26632s quieter map fortunately for the spark
26634s shy comes alive again as only shy does
26637s I'm getting mice mostly most of his
26640s final blows in like the last couple of
26642s fights they're really turning up
26644s yeah they're just uh the spark I feel
26646s like are just such an explosive team I
26649s know at any moment Goose way uh shy Teru
26653s can come up with these like crazy
26655s game-saving plays I do feel like though
26658s looking back at that map like Toronto
26660s had a really good chance to win that
26662s like that map could have gone either way
26664s uh as we go into push uh
26668s you know the the team that wins the
26670s first fighting gets uh you know the the
26672s bot always has a pretty good uh
26674s Advantage I believe the team that
26676s actually uh you know caps that first
26678s checkpoint uh the team that does it
26680s first so we get a you know Terry with a
26683s little Flex there uh team that caps that
26685s first checkpoint has above a 70 win rate
26688s of the entire path uh so really crucial
26691s to get that first checkpoint
26693s close to like 80 or was before yeah it
26696s was it was extremely high although
26698s that's changed so not remains to be seen
26700s Esperanza of course is the Toronto
26703s Defiance Matt picked their last chance
26705s to select the battlefield to stay alive
26708s and now circling back maybe to the
26709s Mercury conversation right in almost
26711s every metric almost every stat Arturo is
26714s out doing Twilight by a very large
26716s amount more than double the final blows
26718s per 10 uh more healing way more damage
26721s uh by like a factor of I mean like by 33
26724s so pretty considerable here
26726s squeezing every last ounce of utility
26729s and impact out of here because
26730s especially when so many players are
26732s still getting into grips with her is
26734s extremely important because in a match
26735s that's this close map it's the little
26737s things that make a huge difference
26739s [Music]
26740s and I also feel like from the support
26742s position
26744s like the extra damage is so important
26746s right like Lucio Lucio does a a
26748s reasonable amount of damage right uh
26750s it's why you don't see like any Percy
26753s really in kind of even even ranked right
26755s like uh not a ton because there's no
26757s real damage output and amp damage but no
26760s like actual damage output from that roll
26762s where kariko I think is really feast or
26765s famine in terms of damage right because
26766s you need to land the headshots to be
26768s able to do so yeah I would do some
26770s bubbles often getting in the way you
26772s don't feel like you can really break
26773s through you have to go around 40 damage
26775s you can just understand the standard on
26777s headshot uh you know kunai feels
26779s terrible you're not going to sit there
26780s trying to throw them out to break a
26782s Winston bubble you're gonna get around
26783s it you're gonna try and you'll get more
26785s aggressive and get towards your target
26786s so you know Finding value despite those
26788s obstructions quite often being players
26790s gonna be important and like you said the
26793s first checkpoint well on these push Maps
26795s is so critical
26797s yeah and that's that was not great if
26799s you're a spark fan uh one in four uh I
26802s think uh one and five uh in terms of
26806s your uh push map record in tournament
26808s play not ideal
26812s support the history books here keep
26816s themselves alive not a great start
26818s finale's having a pin shot to the Mason
26821s rings
26823s but we'll be in favor of the Toronto
26826s defiant first is uh
26828s it kind of like wraps around here
26832s it's a really odd spot for the fight to
26835s be kicking off uh Hey smart they're
26837s going the other way yeah we're not done
26839s yet
26840s it's pretty easy for the ball to get
26842s away from you on this map as well
26845s especially when uh the Bots retreading
26847s ground it's already been on uh you get
26849s away from you real quick so spark have
26851s to try and find some success here in a
26853s very weird fight for chive he's able to
26854s get into the pocket sure wrong maybe
26856s none the wiser there is that bubble just
26858s comes up to save Hopper's Life In Time
26860s giant tries to throw down and just drop
26861s the shot to protect and he himself from
26863s any rugby pursuers doesn't pay off still
26866s the sprocket someone of a stalemate
26868s which is broken now his finale is
26869s brought down by Teru don't just start to
26871s make some progress
26873s and That Kill by terror is huge right
26875s because if you still have the reaper and
26877s whatnot in the mix and you can play
26879s around there on the bar maybe you can
26881s kind of keep it
26882s at least in a position maybe middle of a
26884s map right falling back a little bit make
26886s it a little bit difficult on goose way
26887s to push up hello but those kills by
26890s Terror proven to be impact
26894s still spark behind in terms of that
26897s progress so getting past this bridge
26899s show gonna be absolutely crucial it's
26901s gonna have a sound barrier coming into
26902s it that most important ultimates out for
26904s four little flying because there's
26905s Freddie but a primer rage comes out
26907s instantly and again finale finds a
26908s crucial kill he's stepping up to shine
26910s another big early pick
26914s and you can see how difficult it is to
26916s like level change the fight's still
26918s going on Harry gets really high on that
26920s wall climb Nano Swift step is he's
26923s trying his hardest to stay alive but
26926s when we watch it from shine's
26928s perspective uh it can be very difficult
26931s in shooter games to like look directly
26933s up and then have another Target it's
26935s like off of your screen because he's
26936s looking up at hotba and finale's not
26939s even in his like camera shot right uh
26941s from the first person POV that's a shot
26943s that finale it's really kind of like
26945s unanswered to not have to worry about
26946s any damage being returned it's line it
26948s up knock it down I just go to college
26950s the map office allows you to play
26952s outside of your opposing surgery makes a
26955s big difference my car really cool it's
26956s correct quickly and up there's no bubble
26958s there for HotBox not one then why Now
26962s quickly having to get this ground up
26964s as soon as you saw Hapa take like a shot
26967s the overclock was pop
26969s yeah you knew he was a goner uh sad that
26972s is just too much damage to take before
26975s that impact goes down but the defiant
26977s get ever closer towards that checkpoint
26979s talking about how important it is to get
26981s that checkpoint first
26984s definitely can't do when it comes to the
26986s DPS
26987s he's really standing up now matching
26988s China's impact if not exceeding it so
26990s far one of the kid reasons to Define are
26993s still operating from a position of power
26995s here on Esperanza
26997s he's shooting down to The High Ground
26999s looks like that'll be holding contested
27000s as he opts to drop off here the spot I'm
27002s done he's trying to progress here we'll
27005s see an overclock from finale what can he
27007s do here can he command his High Ground
27008s position it looks like the spark again
27009s backing up
27011s he connects with shine connects with
27013s usually a little bit earlier but is he
27016s not enough to finish off a kill but he's
27017s actually going to take Shy out now you
27018s can go if you're the defiant and this
27020s may result in their first checkpoint
27022s finale accounting for five of seven of
27024s the Defiance final blows so far so good
27026s aim has been crisp Kenny continue it now
27029s that board is getting awful close and
27031s remember that first checkpoint's a key
27032s metric they're determining success with
27034s these teams gonna have roads laid down
27036s by both Kirito series he's trying to
27038s benefit from the fire rate increase then
27039s it pays off brilliantly Terror goes up
27042s and apart from smoke at the defiant run
27044s over the spot I'm here
27046s so this will be the first checkpoint
27049s taken from the defiant so that is huge
27053s okay mention the first checkpoint really
27055s dictates uh you know how often these
27058s teams you know win in push is it is a
27061s huge indicator if you're able to get
27062s that first checkpoint you have a
27064s fantastic opportunity to win the map
27066s Sidelines initially going to favor The
27068s Defenders here as shy can heal towards
27070s that left-hand side get a decent off
27072s angle we're gonna find quickly when I
27074s move up here take that space away Goose
27076s way trying to thwart this particular
27077s endeavor
27079s double jump over the top I don't know if
27081s they expect him to come from this
27082s direction finale under a heck of a lot
27083s of pressure for goose ways lost that
27085s extra help from Primal he's gonna find
27086s wisely up to back away but now they're
27089s playing inside an enclosed space
27091s the thing the Defiance are fine taking
27093s these types of fights Mitch because they
27095s have such an advantage in terms of the
27097s push that they don't have to feed the
27099s team that kind of like runs in and makes
27100s a play and a finale with another one but
27103s I'll use that guy right now man what a
27105s step up getting rid of pineapple is big
27107s but there's no Reapers to play right now
27109s should I at least have a reciprocate if
27111s it's a finale and still the spark off to
27114s give up round they are being forced back
27116s quite the Ferocious approach from the
27117s fire but they may have to respect this
27119s two guys overclock will force him to
27121s turn tail
27122s yeah they have to I mean it's the only
27125s thing you can do is actually finale they
27127s push up a little bit he actually pumps
27128s his overclock he's so weak though and
27130s he's now lost Twilight while I was
27131s hiding behind enemy Alliance hoping to
27133s make a flank with pineapples able to
27134s stick him out get rid of that would be
27136s flanker
27138s that's the Defiance plans now starting
27141s to crumble away her wrongs are likely to
27143s get away with this lap he's gonna bring
27144s him down to the spark need to find that
27146s first checkpoint themselves they need to
27148s get an even footy
27150s still a long way to go though to be able
27152s to match this progress here from the
27154s Defiance early on as you're gonna have
27156s both support ultimates here for the
27158s spark uh you're gonna get close to that
27161s death Blossom so see if they're able to
27163s execute his TP so that High Ground then
27166s just gets knocked right down disruptor
27168s shot through the choke so not gonna be
27169s able to move through there either hope I
27171s find it there and forced shy to slide
27174s away but respect made off into the
27176s Winston right now Jerome is in pineapple
27178s sites
27179s and the pink brick road is gonna be what
27181s the spark used to get himself in
27183s striking position Goose Ray finds his
27185s second here spark when he multiple
27187s fights in a row is a big deal especially
27189s with the tuner up being used by Twilight
27191s here there's lots of scary though Super
27193s Rich gets caught inside that storm but
27195s pineapple's got one of his own
27197s Hopper has to run away not much he can
27199s do from here now out of position trying
27201s to get back to his team
27203s yeah what the Divine we're trying to do
27205s there Mitch is they were actually trying
27206s to use that Primal in their death boss
27208s and they get super rich to use that
27210s sound barrier so you remember like the
27211s first kill in that fights chorong so
27213s he's out of that fight for an extended
27214s period uh if you can get that sound
27216s barrier from super red you can come
27218s right back if you're the defiant have
27219s that sound barrier Advantage they're not
27221s able to do so look at this you haven't
27223s taken that first checkpoint yet this is
27225s Rock the shot for shy going a little
27226s more left than I thought it would be but
27228s finale picked up early shy now doesn't
27230s need to worry too much about the threat
27232s of pop back
27233s yeah
27234s float above the Carnage and the spark
27237s get that first checkpoint themselves now
27239s putting himself again closer to being
27242s within Striking Distance of the Defiance
27243s total 85 plays 53. this is not looking
27247s good for the defiant
27249s it's a few fights lost in a row it seems
27252s like the Spark's starting to come to
27253s life here
27255s it's this next fight and what you're
27257s gonna be very close to tying this game
27259s Papa drops down he's got to be real
27260s careful yeah let's get the karma ripped
27262s right off that's some spice giving up
27264s there already I'm sure all they had to
27265s do was turn and look at the Winston
27267s finale needs to be the guy once more to
27269s step up if I'm not mistaken
27270s so far seven and five Final close to
27273s deaths
27275s I think both teams are going to play for
27276s their career goals here like just kind
27279s of like yeah you see just letting
27281s Twilight just game that healing yep Farm
27284s the healing up you see no damage going
27287s down uh for the defiant not giving an
27289s opportunity really for Terror to get it
27290s fast is now some damage goes down Trump
27294s terror is he's got this ultimate let's
27296s see how both of them decide to play now
27298s Twilight this is what both teams have
27300s been waiting for
27301s out
27309s they're the ones the position of the bot
27311s right now playing around this choke so
27313s carefully
27314s both teams are searching for an opening
27317s PCS
27318s yeah good damage
27323s way back to the client here and recorded
27325s amidst the fighting is the spark very
27327s quickly back away if we took too much
27329s damage and another fighter in the
27330s position to strike at them they're gonna
27332s charge forward super evading certain
27334s Doom this finale can't finish the job
27336s the spark with five had to recruit
27338s finale he's in trouble low ground
27340s disadvantages placing him there but he's
27342s kept alive
27344s yeah 40 seconds on the clock but the
27346s Defiance did move the bot a little bit
27348s further back towards that middle of the
27349s map so they give themselves a little bit
27351s of a cushion here without fighting
27353s Papa's gonna let everyone go straight
27355s away and there it is finale steps up
27357s juice way is down pineapple's very close
27360s to a dead Blossom though he might try
27361s and Salvage the situation but this is
27362s bad for hunk joke I like this for
27365s Toronto though uh who cares if they're
27367s up here on the bridge on this High
27368s Ground just get the bomb moving the
27369s other way the sound barrier this unreal
27371s shark doesn't benefit from it either so
27373s hopefully descends upon him now Super
27375s Rich doubles back with pineapples
27376s brought down again finale he finds
27378s another key kill five seconds left in
27380s the round the spark of falling apart he
27383s suits it's good dancing his way forwards
27384s as they know their prices Within Reach
27387s Goose way Force for a Primal Rage here
27389s but it definitely seems an attempt in
27391s vain to keep this game going we're in
27393s overtime but the Defiance pack the
27395s players Goose Ray barely touches the
27397s ground before being dispatched and now
27400s it'll be trickling here this Mark
27402s realized they've let this one get too
27403s far out
27407s he's gonna have to find more though
27409s playing safe around the corner since
27411s John but Hopkins and more person threat
27413s and present he takes a hit himself now
27415s and has to respect finale who again
27416s comes alive this man could do it all and
27419s then a fire and stay alive
27423s oh we got a game five here between the
27428s spark and the defiant
27431s one map to decide the seasons for these
27435s teams one will keep playing one will go
27437s home and I tell you what Toronto they
27440s looked pretty good on Route 66 even in
27442s that loss and then here obviously they
27444s take it they look really good the
27446s decision making very smart there towards
27448s the end a lot of the momentum sits with
27451s the defiant
27452s finale dusts off his hands and pulls off
27455s the deadlift unbelievable 13 of if I'm
27458s not mistaken 25 final blows for the
27461s defiant
27462s unbelievable performances now their fate
27465s rests in their own hands Toronto versus
27466s Hangzhou goes to a map five

27698s with a punch this day that was close
27700s Okay
27702s [Music]
27707s massive play at the very end to clutch
27710s the round
27714s Valentine draws the blade but it's him
27717s that needs an ambulance at the end Papa
27719s with the commanding show now wants to
27720s back out
27722s that's a big one for Toronto Defiance
27725s take the W
27730s in the hour of greatest need the Toronto
27734s to find find the finale has answered the
27737s call 13 final blows out of 23 for five
27742s deaths he takes over Esperanza and puts
27745s the defiant in a position to have a say
27748s in the result of this match that's right
27751s they've taken us to a tiebreaker
27753s and with the way obviously the uh game
27757s on Route 66 goes to Spark's favorite but
27760s if you kind of like just look at that
27761s final Point like of the defense like
27763s this the the defiant had an opportunity
27766s to win that uh you know I think they
27768s just kind of like played the ultimate
27769s game a little bit wrong there uh push
27772s though uh they were fantastic able to
27774s get that checkpoint first like we talked
27776s about a huge thing uh in push to really
27779s kind of signify if you're going to win
27781s or lose the game uh they're able to do
27784s that first finale able to match shine in
27787s that sojourn battle
27789s they push us to a game five uh in this
27792s series which I don't think anybody
27793s really expected
27795s well this is it no Second Chances no
27798s redos no takes these back seats the
27801s spark have made the move to bring Alfie
27803s back into the lineup in this decider map
27807s it's all on the line for this team and
27809s they have put their hopes On this man's
27811s shoulders returning presumably to the
27813s reaper roll
27814s right we've seen Alpha Yi uh throughout
27818s this tournament they decided to play
27819s pineapple today which we were a little
27821s bit kind of called off guard is uh yeah
27823s maybe they thought Alpha e wasn't the
27824s answer but then hey this is such a hard
27827s situation to bring him back into uh what
27829s he finds out today like hey you're not
27831s gonna start we're gonna play pineapple
27832s and then just oh game game five seasoned
27836s on the line like ah you know what why
27838s don't you get back in there uh I mean
27840s just just be able to get in there and
27842s play in that position so difficult uh
27845s you see everybody in the spark trying to
27847s regain trying to refocus
27852s tea totaling Super Rich here trying to
27855s find a moment of Solace admits the churn
27858s but this is the business of Esports this
27861s is the business of the OverWatch League
27863s times like this when it's all on the
27865s line you've got to dig deep and you've
27866s got to leave it all out there
27868s both teams preparing themselves now for
27870s legs young Tower the last map in this
27874s series
27875s and I mean goodness we really were high
27878s on the hunger spark coming into this
27879s series we said the Toyota fire looked
27881s they looked a little bit sloppy and then
27884s trying to come in with these changes
27886s right they put finale in the sojourn
27887s position it's hotba coming in a set of
27889s muse and they turn up they give as good
27892s as they get in this series and hung Joe
27894s spark found themselves on the back foot
27896s pretty darn quickly in this match
27899s that's it none of that matters now
27901s Matthew one more map to decided one of
27904s these teams advances in the lower
27905s bracket the other will go home
27908s and if you think back to game one uh in
27911s this series the control uh the defiant
27914s uh in it was kind of even in that first
27917s round the second round they got blown
27919s out
27920s uh
27922s but I feel like they've looked much
27923s better they started to kind of come into
27925s their own I know with some of these
27927s changes and substitutions they've had in
27929s the series thus far
27932s I I do think you're gonna see that same
27934s Defiance from map one in this one I
27936s think you're gonna see them kind of
27937s continue this strong play it's a hata
27940s starting to figure things out on the
27941s Winston absolutely and the Defiance
27944s starting to figure out how to unravel
27945s gooshway
27947s many of these fights he's being forced
27949s back very early they snap to attention
27952s and they after the threat of the monkey
27954s in their front lines and All Eyes now
27956s are on out for you it is gonna be the
27958s reap up as he's brought in Spotlight on
27960s him now to stand tall and get his team
27962s across the line
27965s TP straight across here at the start
27967s you're gonna have a little bit of an
27968s advantage for the spark and now the big
27970s one is
27971s shy will take out Jesus
27974s without that Reaper you see they start
27976s to back up right away nothing they can
27978s do Gucci Parks is really aggressively at
27980s the start of that fight he touched a ton
27981s of damage but it pays off Shai has the
27983s room to move
27985s the kill happens so fast though that it
27987s like the point doesn't even open up yet
27989s so you can actually kind of like push in
27991s a little bit here if you're the defiant
27993s flip this fast how does he find a man
27995s like you I have no idea
27997s he's like his arms his bends
28000s and they only get nine percent so I mean
28003s that first kill happens so fast uh if
28006s you weren't able to actually get like a
28008s huge percentage on the points or even
28009s stabilize really
28011s I don't know about I'm feeling the
28012s Throne of the flying today you've got a
28014s fire in their bellies right now Twilight
28015s getting into Valkyrie there while the
28017s fire already we're in a strong position
28019s now they look to solidified it's kind of
28021s wild right nine percent is all 100 Come
28023s Away with despite finding such a crucial
28025s pick at the start of that fight gotta be
28027s frustrating now as they look to find a
28029s way to get back in
28030s but look at the advantage in terms of
28032s support Ultra for the defiant as well I
28035s think it start to rack up some serious
28036s percentage
28040s try again decent angle here for long
28042s range to play but look at this hop by
28044s surges forward straight away the spa are
28047s the ones that are getting a lot of this
28048s ground here but he still extends too far
28050s to the firing line and out piggy brings
28051s him down now Advantage for the Hangzhou
28054s Spike then look to try and exploit it
28055s this shot's gonna slow them down for a
28057s moment but off to the point they go do
28058s Straight goes it over the top that's an
28061s overclock from finale shy holding on the
28062s hits for the time being as South Barry's
28064s applied Toronto are using all of their
28066s ultimate here to try and hold on to the
28067s point but torok is still going to be
28069s brought down Alfie now draws a beat on
28072s hot back looking to bring the Winston
28073s down but shy gets him first now he's
28076s trying to hang on the Defiance spin
28078s everything and still lose
28082s that both teams dump just about
28084s everything into that one though
28087s finish off finale it's uh right up
28089s finishes up with that right click Primal
28092s and overclock still available from the
28095s spark
28096s so you know what it was interesting
28097s mentioned that right at the beginning
28099s when he's who actually gets uh killed by
28100s Alfie it looks like he uses The Wraith
28103s form uh but then cancels out of it maybe
28105s he thinks he's actually like kind of
28107s safe or there's like bubble going down
28109s and help he's not there but gets killed
28112s instantly so not great timing there from
28113s ISU
28115s and a rough one for the defiant but they
28117s build such a nice lead early here
28119s should be fairly conservatives that make
28121s their approach here but Primal from
28122s Goose way this is definitely got a list
28124s of the response from them now what are
28126s they doing here soon okay finale able to
28127s find out for Geek crucial drawing out of
28129s the pitch of the only dead Blossom from
28130s he still gets cuts off by shy who pops
28133s off there fighting two off the overclock
28135s and the spark will extend their lead
28139s shot is just always able to nail some of
28143s these shots on the surgeon that's three
28144s in that fight for him to secure the
28146s point
28147s they'll now end up taking the lead off
28150s of the back of that but Twilight guys
28152s did a lot of work in that fight ninja
28153s he's gonna have the city of Russia right
28155s away and I and I wonder if they they
28158s have an idea because you know it's just
28159s been one fight since he's seen at last
28161s they have an idea where a terror's at
28163s this is a really fast buildup Twilight
28165s laser grounds worth here for a
28167s successful fight by the to find the
28168s stock are out of it everybody disappears
28170s yeah
28172s when do they come back here's the
28173s question Alfie is not able to get away
28175s with the rest of his team jorom catches
28177s him out there the spark will play this
28179s advantage of Netflix definitely not
28180s gonna be able to get much done here
28181s Gerald has to suzu himself now draws the
28184s attention to finale the spot getting
28185s bundled out of here unceremoniously
28189s oh yes Terry Shire really low it's gonna
28192s be a Primal Rage from hot but now he's
28194s trying to get back to the rest of the
28196s team doesn't need to force the issue
28200s to about that now after the defiant
28202s double support Altier for Hangzhou you
28204s gotta have a big sound barrier here for
28206s the defiant then also finale to lay out
28208s some shots of the overclock and today
28209s rocks here for the spot
28211s okay it's dead forward now finale having
28213s to play pretty close to sound barrier
28214s giving some good measure of confidence
28216s to the defiant he'll play safe around
28218s the pillar but the points flips of
28219s finale now has to back away Sean catches
28221s him in mid-air now let's mark out the
28223s advantage and then pick it up 97 and
28226s counting but who's the minified he's
28227s going to be able to stand up here piece
28229s who has to turn tail then break walk and
28231s play around the point but chorong is
28232s brought down and that over time it takes
28235s away and the spark have an early lead
28238s they're not able to touch is that's as
28241s close of an opening round as we could
28243s have there is just seemed like the the
28246s spark for people to you know always have
28248s that double support old combo and the
28251s defiant they needed to use one of them
28252s to get the point back they kind of only
28254s had the other and eventually you know
28256s you're just gonna lose out in that game
28257s but sustain right with not having that
28259s extra support alt in the mix
28262s but look at how these last few moments
28263s went this is shine with a big shutdown
28269s hi
28270s right around the corner
28274s oh that is filthy now the way to snow he
28277s doesn't need a fully charged rail to
28279s guarantee the kill he doesn't have to
28280s wait for that to build up he just goes
28282s for it impressive round eight one for
28284s shy
28286s what a time to come alive
28291s spark will take the side of the point
28293s first
28295s kind of like play this dance over by the
28297s stairs so actually just kind of play
28298s from the point now that they've kind of
28300s flip sides here
28302s pop-ups reposition there as Alfie he's
28305s kind of in the midst of it but he's able
28306s to take the Winston down finale though
28309s from a safe position really getting
28310s worked on taru now a non-factor in this
28313s fight Jai wants to hang around and maybe
28314s try and turn this jorong has fallen he
28316s knows where he's gonna come from great
28317s walk is available but where does he go
28319s pooped away detection suzu in their
28322s finale chiming in once more Hopper
28324s returns to the freight and then a fine
28325s half the numbers hello
28328s big time in this series I mean how many
28332s sojourns in the league you go Toe to Toe
28335s with the shine inside he is he is taking
28338s it to another level on the hero as of
28341s late is uh Alfie with the TP straight
28343s across selfie comes in here for stain
28346s five as
28347s bubble down move up a little bit for the
28350s spark trying to take some space moving
28352s their way back towards the point china
28353s has a better sideline and finale trying
28356s to play enough angle of his own is
28357s punished for that the spark paves the
28359s way they get on in there with a
28360s disruptor shot and they make full use of
28362s that real estate Twilight they're trying
28365s to slap back again shy he's a scary
28366s threat to be sure Shiloh Place insane
28371s he's a he's a beast I mean we I just
28374s talked about finale and he just comes
28376s right around the corner and he reminds
28378s him like Kim play can't play that uh you
28382s know free and lose against me is he even
28384s finale here trying to like get some
28385s damage on the choke just takes a ton of
28387s shots and shy with a headshot on ahisu
28390s before things even begin so
28392s this is dangerous because you know
28395s coming through the choke against a
28397s soldier is level right uh it almost
28402s feels like shy is bound to kill one
28404s every single time you'll see a fortune
28405s if you're able to make it in I mean he
28407s has done that man 11 final blows two
28409s dance Terror trying to fight through
28412s these trucks very oppressive against
28413s this long range kind of pressure the
28415s defiant have no choice but to wait they
28417s need their key piece in this fight
28422s what's up
28425s here we go
28426s [Music]
28427s slow them down as they try and move
28429s through as well just make them easier
28431s targets save the casino
28434s at the very least but he goes down what
28437s does the spark do with this now they
28438s have a bit of a lead to work the pieces
28439s cut down Alpha he's able to use the dip
28441s Blossom inside that that's ridiculous
28444s making use of the parish terror's
28446s ultimate and he punishes the defiant
28448s once more now you're up against the wall
28451s Toronto they need to figure this out
28453s both teams using a lot of ultimate so
28455s it's gonna come down to finale's
28457s overclock
28458s yes the thing that ends up saving Alfie
28460s there is a sound barrier from super rich
28463s is
28464s sound barrier connects and it's good
28466s enough to keep him alive
28471s now able to stay alive Asher is Keen
28474s forward takes a faithful his finale's
28477s over clock this is what we were
28478s foreshadowing
28479s a perfect targets though
28483s yeah they get them off the point that's
28485s massive just buys him some space now it
28487s forces the spark to be the team that's
28488s running into this fully charged sojourn
28492s okay the spark regained this right hand
28494s side of the map right the Close Quarters
28496s area is there guy has to get away from
28498s hot bar who will not give up the chase
28499s try to charge up though Susan will
28502s employed we're looking for an insta kill
28505s here but the awkward angle for the
28507s Sojourner to play with now he swings out
28508s and Twilight and puts her bed not a
28510s great start here with the defiant able
28512s to flip the point back it may not matter
28513s though the spark up charging straight
28515s back in it's easy to try and throw a
28517s spanner in the works if he's unable to
28519s get much done just the one kill and here
28522s it is this will be the last fight for
28524s the trolley to find and they all end
28526s here
28527s who is going to be able to touch it
28529s looks like finale on the side here with
28532s Twilight they're gonna be the ones that
28533s have to get to get on the floor
28535s he gets surrounded finale tries to go
28538s for the Gambit but it blows up in his
28539s face four players left Patrona now what
28542s can they get done taking a lot of damage
28544s he needs to get that sound barrier
28545s online he stays alive but can't keep hot
28547s for standing here comes out for you the
28549s death Blossom might seal the deal it's
28551s shy finding two and another finale
28554s falling as well and the man of the
28556s moment comes alive he's anything but as
28559s the hung Joe Sparks stay alive in his
28561s lower bracket finally vanquishing the
28565s Defiance who live up to their name in
28567s more ways than one
28569s that is such a close back and forth
28573s series
28574s the spark just owned control at the
28577s front and the back so I got a feel for
28580s the defiant players they had a a very
28583s good season
28584s tremendous run at their own home stand
28587s but the overall season playoffs they
28590s fall just a bit short but if I'd make
28593s sure they were close to every major
28595s event in the western the OverWatch
28596s League hung show really had their ups
28599s and downs but no one can argue that the
28601s time is right for this team shy 20 final
28605s blows two deaths on Lee Jong Tower
28609s should be clear that that's a deadlift
28611s but what a moment for him finale keeping
28614s him under the thumb every other map
28616s having to adapt to a new threat from the
28618s Toronto to fight
28620s with the spark they strike goal to the
28622s key moment this team is electrifying
28626s and I I think if you are like a viewer
28631s of some of the other teams in this
28632s tournament you were probably rooting so
28634s hard for the defiant there at the end uh
28637s just to get this spark team out of here
28639s because they they look so scary and
28642s dangerous I mean shy he's like deadlift
28644s in every other map Goose way is
28646s tremendous on the Winston Terrace
28648s causing so many problems on the koriko
28650s uh this is a team that I don't think
28652s anybody wants to see in the loser
28654s bracket just because their players have
28657s so much pop off potential that uh you
28660s know all that you're playing the right
28661s way you're doing everything all of a
28663s sudden shine pops an overclock kills
28664s four people uh I mean it's so difficult
28668s and crazy the game plan against and play
28671s against uh it's scary for a lot of the
28674s teams still in the field that sparker's
28676s still in
28677s yeah we lay with him as a dark horse
28679s threat but we've got ahead of the
28681s defiant we didn't expect them to put up
28682s such an incredible fight that team who's
28685s had to adapt on the Fly extremely
28687s quickly with some big changes to the
28689s team but let's talk later the match
28690s should be pretty darn obvious with two
28691s deadlifts across the course of the
28693s series the other player of the match is
28695s none other than shy what a player what a
28699s talent
28703s I mean some player he just did not want
28705s to go home today regardless of uh who
28708s the opponent was he was going to come in
28710s and just put on a show because it feels
28712s like every time with the overclock he
28714s means dude headshots like crazy man and
28717s like look at this I mean he's been
28719s juggled by a Winston and just Nails the
28722s head shot like
28724s just makes it look so easy when you have
28726s a soldier player that's this good you
28728s can't go straight on that Winston I mean
28730s the sky really is the limit
28732s I mean this is going to go down I think
28734s is one of the most intense playoff
28736s matches we've seen in quite some time
28738s the the pure amount of grit and
28740s determination that gets displayed by
28742s both these teams shy wasn't on who
28743s wasn't popping off every map he
28745s definitely had some quiet ones but you
28747s end with a series with north of 13 final
28749s blows for 10 those charge shot kills as
28751s well so crucial both sojourns had you
28754s know upwards of 66 accuracy for the most
28757s part with those charge shots they were
28759s taking a real Front Runners role in this
28761s series and let's not forget I mean if
28764s you're out for you right now you'll
28766s breathe your side relief in that map
28768s five and you're expected to deliver just
28770s to add water and deliver here dear man
28773s and I gotta say it's all like the thing
28776s that impresses me the most about shine
28778s is that uh you know you see these
28782s performances from him in the biggest
28784s moments right in the biggest games
28786s against the toughest opponents uh you
28790s know not beating up on everybody in the
28791s regular season in the seating right and
28793s then you know coming here coming to a
28795s tournament just kind of you know not
28797s having those like big game changing
28799s performances like doing this in the
28801s biggest moments against the best teams
28803s we have in the league uh that's what I
28805s love about it uh it does not seem like
28808s there is a fight he will not take a
28811s battle he does not think he can win uh
28814s you just love seeing that type of play
28815s there's never been a bit of time to be a
28817s fan of OverWatch Esports one of our most
28819s competitive playoffs of all time and
28822s what a way to cap off the day of games
28824s we're not done of course we're gonna
28825s head over to the crew down in Anaheim to
28827s cap today off incredible stuff we'll of
28829s course see you later for more playoffs

29101s welcome to watch Point Post show
29104s everybody Danny Lim here joined by tarot
29106s from hongzhou spark Terror
29107s congratulations on the win I want to
29109s start off this interview by just asking
29111s you uh because we saw something
29113s interesting today unlike the previous
29114s two matches where Alpha e uh came into
29117s the lineup playing the reaper today we
29119s saw something different we saw pineapple
29120s play The Reaper for the team and then
29122s Alpha joining it towards the end of the
29125s match so what was the reason for having
29127s pineapple play over Alpha Eunice
29133s foreign
29188s thank you
29200s foreign
29206s all right sorry guys that took a quite a
29208s bit a long time because I couldn't hear
29210s a couple words that uh that Tara was
29212s saying so basically what he was saying
29213s um after they had to make that they had
29215s to make some some sort of switch after
29217s they had their first loss in the
29219s playoffs against the Dallas Fuel and of
29220s course there are uh difference uh the
29222s way they played pineapple Alpha there's
29224s a huge difference in how they play so
29226s that those were sort of the
29227s consideration considerations that the
29230s team uh had thought of and more
29232s importantly but we did see Alpha e
29234s towards the end uh mainly because the
29237s main character in any in any story sort
29240s of appears towards the end so that's we
29242s got to that's how we got to see Alpha e
29244s towards the end all right and uh last
29246s but not least my final question for you
29247s tarot is
29249s tomorrow it's going to be uh the battle
29251s of the pinks I guess it's a Florida
29252s Mayhem versus the Hanzo spark uh tarot
29256s how confident are you that you could
29257s defeat the float of mayhemisms
29280s all right uh I would like to say that
29281s you know there is no one better when it
29284s comes to kiriko I am the best kiriko
29286s currently so I think it's too early for
29288s me to leave Anaheim just yet all right
29291s Tara thank you so much for all of your
29293s answers and again big congratulations on
29295s the windows
29301s [Music]
29303s all right Zoe back to you thank you so
29306s much Danny thank you so much tarot tiny
29308s Hearts back to you and congratulations
29310s to you and your team for making it one
29312s round further into the playoffs now
29315s let's talk about this much funny enough
29317s looking at the entire schedule for
29319s today's matches I think that was the
29321s match I least expected to go all the way
29324s being like very very close but that was
29326s the one which really took us all the way
29329s on an emotional roller coaster and that
29332s makes it a very heartbreaking loss for
29333s the Toronto Define because they got so
29336s close to making it one step further alas
29339s it shall not be let's discuss how the
29342s spark got it done uh they already just
29344s discussed there there were a few changes
29346s that were made from the spark side
29349s there's a pineapple in suddenly overall
29351s for you for the beginning of the series
29353s about what were your initial thoughts
29355s when you saw the lineup
29357s I mean I think when I saw the lineup for
29359s Dr spark I was quite surprised because
29361s obviously we saw pineapple back in the
29362s mix but this is something they've done
29363s throughout the season as well when it
29365s comes to the Tracer play uh notoriously
29367s Alfie was a bit more of a solo artist
29369s racking up the solo kills for his team
29371s and going on these big flanks on Tracer
29373s whereas pineapple historically in the
29374s Tracer played more with the team and
29376s maybe this is something they implemented
29377s when it came to the reaper as well maybe
29380s pineapple has more Tendencies to stick
29381s with fuchsia for example and sticking
29383s with the team making for more of a team
29385s worker kind of effort but in this series
29387s though it was back and forth the big
29389s story for this one was drawn to the lion
29390s they used something hotba and off tank
29392s player historically an off tank player
29394s onto that Winston role instead and they
29395s swapped around the reaper and the
29398s soldier player so he so he played the
29399s surgeon for the Thunder fight yesterday
29401s in their loss and now today it was
29403s finale on that Soldier roll and Jaws
29405s knowing you're you're a draunted defiant
29407s fan here what did sort of you make of
29409s the two uh damaged player swaps here
29411s but wait what team for Toronto
29415s what are you saying I don't know bro
29417s it's been a long day it was a long
29418s Series yeah no it's um
29420s it was interesting to see how it's
29422s wanted to find did tackle this Meadow
29424s because ideally you would have hisu on
29427s the on the sojourn historically has been
29429s played certain for a lot of Toronto
29431s Defiance um game time but
29434s we were kind of talking about this in
29435s the Green Room a little bit earlier on
29436s today like Reba requires such like an
29438s interesting playstyle this matter but
29439s maybe he's who has that kind of grasp in
29441s it more than finale does in the way that
29443s the Reap is there just to kind of force
29446s out cooldowns from the Winston from
29448s kiriko or like from the other DPS and
29451s maybe he's who just has the bigger brain
29453s in that aspect and he just lets finale
29454s just sit up there and eat I mean um it
29456s wasn't very close Series in the end I
29457s think both hisu and I had pop-off
29459s moments individually uh yeah
29462s yeah I think as well as someone who's
29464s you know played in moments like this it
29465s can be this is something I mentioned
29467s about the Atlanta rain series as well
29468s like summy and Gator for example on the
29470s tank roll it can be a bit of a
29471s confidence boost sometimes just making a
29473s change for saying to sake of making a
29475s change I mean so many of the viewers
29476s watching right now like sometimes we'll
29478s just change up our sensitivity at home
29480s just like oh I aim better when I says
29487s you're like oh I saw my sensitivity I'm
29488s like oh my God
29490s that's right and actually that can sort
29492s of be applied to the roll swap sometime
29495s itself I'm not saying this is a smart
29496s thing to do right because the LA Gladius
29498s for example put Happy on the sojourn put
29501s cancer on the reaper that makes the most
29502s sense right but for example the Toronto
29504s defiant they had a really rough game the
29505s other day and now you get into this
29507s series and maybe you change things up a
29509s little bit here by making this change
29510s and honestly they like looked quite good
29513s um I want to rap though on the Hunters
29514s Park yeah obviously you want to map five
29516s this is not something we expected from
29518s the hunter sport because we expected
29519s them to be dominant but I do think it's
29521s noteworthy going into the playoffs when
29523s it comes to the escort Maps pintos Park
29525s is the worst performing playoff team we
29527s have on escort maps and they're the
29529s second worst team we have on push Maps
29531s as well that kind of inconsistency is
29533s not going to fly if you want to go deep
29535s in the playoffs because then you're
29537s essentially reliant on just winning
29538s control and winning hybrid maps all the
29540s time but then like you look at the
29541s Hybrid scores here L.A gladiers they win
29544s hybrid Maps 75 of the time so if you're
29546s a huncho spark is your win conditioned
29548s to just come in there and beat people on
29549s the hybrid Maps I'm really worried about
29551s this inconsistency from the hunter spark
29553s you need to be able to find a way to win
29555s push Maps maybe as Branch out the new
29556s push map would be one of those win
29558s conditions for spark but a bit worrisome
29560s going to map five against this one's
29562s refined here I think they would should
29563s be expected to be better I mean one
29565s thing which does stand out if you're
29567s looking at that roster yeah yeah okay
29568s some statistics might work fast and the
29571s stats say otherwise I'm just looking at
29572s the eye test here I mean shy he
29574s deadlifted not once but twice in that
29577s series and in fact I don't know the
29580s stats here because quite frankly you
29581s don't need him he's dead lifted okay
29583s yeah but no I I mean if you're looking
29585s at how many deadlifts per match we have
29588s oh yeah exactly because this match at
29590s three is that that has to be I feel like
29593s that's gonna be a record
29595s we're making up stats again Zoe I think
29598s I mean yeah I'm not making it up I'm
29600s questioning someone out there has the
29602s answer so please provide them to us here
29605s because I would really like to know uh
29607s Shai managed to deadlift twice finale on
29609s that sojourn really stepping it up for
29611s his team so it's never been free which
29614s just uh just word from production uh
29618s this is a first yeah yeah what a way not
29620s made up it's real I didn't make it up
29622s wow epic that's actually really epic
29624s yeah yeah it is epic there's no way yeah
29626s map five three deadlifts like you know
29630s these players are fighting tooth and
29632s nail to stay in the competition like you
29633s can just see it there yeah and to have
29635s one of those deadlifts done by finale
29637s who had to pick up that sojourn role for
29640s today after not playing the soldier for
29642s the last two days that is huge so let's
29644s send Toronto off with some kind words
29647s their season obviously has been
29651s I don't want to say mid but it wasn't
29654s it's been hot that it's been cold you
29655s know they've got the moments where they
29657s haven't but they made it all the way to
29658s the playoffs and I think a lot of people
29659s did not expect that but they deserve to
29661s be here for sure it's definitely been
29663s the right step in the right direction
29665s for this franchise and I think the
29667s Toronto defiant themselves you know if
29669s you consider compare this to the 2019
29671s roster the 2020 roster for example they
29673s had karive in the lineup for some quite
29675s some time agility is formerly part of
29676s the LA Valiant but now like they have
29678s this roster right here I think they're
29680s on to something I think choring and
29682s Twilight has been a standout in the back
29684s line for them and obviously they've been
29685s hot and cold at some point throughout
29687s the season but it's important to
29688s remember we had the Toronto homestand in
29690s the summer Showdown they got third in
29692s their very own homestand and like I know
29694s some Throne to defiant fans who are down
29696s home you know cheering for their own
29698s team and they were so rewarding for them
29700s to really see this franchise succeed in
29702s the summer Showdown and make their fans
29704s proud so I hope the Toronto findeth I
29706s hope they can build on this season I
29707s think they got something going in the
29709s right direction build on this roster
29710s improved next year and maybe you'll be
29712s better off in the playoffs next year
29713s absolutely absolutely so much talent on
29715s that roster so it was really
29717s heartbreaking to see them go out but
29718s they went out with a bang it was an
29720s amazing last showing for that Toronto
29722s Define Squad and we can't wait to see
29724s more so thanks a lot Toronto Define for
29727s everything you've provided throughout
29728s the 2022 season now uh with that uh that
29732s double triple deadlift actually we
29734s actually got some double triple the
29736s double triple deadlift we got some we
29738s got some work to do on our Bingo board
29740s so of course our guests head on over
29743s it's my job today I don't want to trip
29745s over the cable though and unlike Costa
29747s you actually have a mic too so yeah he's
29749s got long gangly legs I got I'm a bit
29751s shorter than Scott so we can cross off
29754s the deadlift yeah let's see where we're
29756s at we're very close we're really close
29758s to Bingo on the left side left with the
29760s Winton jump it's gone um so wait Winter
29764s jump okay did that happen how do you
29766s define this well
29768s there's no honor yeah so no you can't
29771s now yeah I guess you can't we can't nap
29773s like that
29795s we're gonna remind Fusion fast every
29797s time we bring up the Bingo he's like oh
29798s Fusion got at last so um but do we have
29801s a bingo across the middle well yeah we
29804s do free Fields
29807s the free one who's that free there we go
29810s we did it yeah
29814s and our reference
29831s worst case scenario will will uh
29834s what we have to do with this Bingo now
29838s I don't think you have to do it yourself
29839s no we don't have to do anything I don't
29841s think I've had bingo I never played
29843s Bingo people living at home they've been
29846s waiting for us to bingo all week long
29848s now for like three days and we finally
29849s do Bingo and there's nothing at the end
29851s of the tunnel I
29860s but I don't know what it means it's like
29863s me making Sports references I just make
29865s them hope no one tries to follow up
29869s I love sports I will move it on we did
29873s the Bingo thing and I had his time for
29874s the best of the days those I know how to
29876s do okay those I'm very familiar with and
29879s I'm gonna start us off with an absolute
29881s Banger this one is coming from Gucci he
29884s uh we're gonna call it the cone of
29887s silence he he decided to put down a
29889s noise canceling headset over his feet
29891s nothing coming through this is so this
29894s is so good
29896s the entire beat nullified with a Winston
29900s beat it's amazing
29905s yeah like the presence of mind to do
29908s that is unreal I I don't want to be that
29913s guy I'm gonna be that guy okay
29915s be that guy was it was it was it
29916s intentional it's a bad play from shorong
29919s to beat the literally on top of the
29920s Taylor no I don't know
29922s lose your sound barriers like hey I'm on
29924s the card hey I'm on the court no but
29927s like did you not no he no so the Lucio
29929s did the tech right he uses beat up hill
29932s shorter travel distance I don't think he
29935s expected gooshway to react so I'll play
29937s the outplay he outplayed the outfit a
29941s five head turning into a ten head if we
29944s do multiplication
29946s keep on going
29948s just like Mitch's head it's yeah and 10
29950s head means more wrinkles so much more
29954s wrinkles and that's what it's all about
29956s not on this desk no we're too young and
29958s useless young oh thank you
29961s I'm trying to be nice so that's my verse
29964s of the day there you go
29966s um what was yours what tickled you fancy
29968s well it was the easiest best of the day
29970s ever which was the one of the better c9s
29974s we've had of all time
29976s um of course it was the decounter
29978s Shanghai the anti-shang nine I don't
29981s know what you really want to call it but
29982s Lee Jay gone hit him with the back cab
29984s real quick this was just unreal
29989s exactly that was the funniest part about
29992s it no hesitation and you the San
29994s Francisco shock at that point were
29995s expecting Shanghai dragons to fight them
29998s in that small room they were like all
29999s just eating towards them and you expect
30002s um the rest of the dragons to be kind of
30003s escorted by oh you know doing a little
30005s Bitcoin and the legion's like oh wait we
30007s can just win the game the payload is
30009s like two pixels away from the completion
30012s well okay I'll just go over there I
30013s think that's probably one of the better
30014s c9s we've we've had in history when you
30017s say better it's awesome one of the most
30018s most egregious yeah it is better but it
30021s is also rather agreement but it's weird
30023s it's like a skillful C9 it's like we
30026s don't typically the back cap is a result
30028s of just like logic's laughs and you're
30029s like oh wait we forgot about the payload
30031s that was like skillful back cap it
30033s looked like it looked like they baited a
30036s fight just to enable the loser to back
30038s up like it looks like
30040s yeah where it's like okay we're gonna
30042s bet a C9 we're just like ginormous level
30046s I love it I mean it's the best it was
30048s honestly one of my favorite moments of
30050s today and look the playoffs is already
30053s ridiculous having their C9 like that it
30055s was going to come it was it was a cherry
30057s on top for sure Jonathan what got you
30060s excited today this was one of my
30062s probably favorite moments of the
30064s playoffs right here and I'm so happy
30065s that Florida Mayhem did it as well I've
30067s never seen anything like it let's just
30069s jump straight into it okay is the
30071s Atlanta Reign defending their spawn by
30074s Kai picking the Widowmaker and suddenly
30076s you're like oh there's a sniper there's
30078s a sniper on the map hide hide from the
30080s sniper but but we gotta push the butt
30082s and so they just the Florida Mayhem team
30084s they organize themselves in a row to
30087s push this bot and they're going to make
30088s a choo-choo train behind the boat soon
30090s it's coming Lucio he's hiding behind the
30093s boat and then someone comes in and we'll
30096s line up they're just gonna line up
30097s behind the box hide from the Widow and
30099s they're just a little train lucky not
30101s playing Tetris bro yeah they'll just
30103s disappear it's like one of those one of
30105s those little things you know take it out
30106s then it gets smaller and smaller and
30108s smarter I don't know what this is called
30109s nesting dolls I like that so go from Big
30113s to smaller to smaller I just like I I
30116s have a
30117s cool reaction to the frustration of the
30119s Widowmaker you're like I'm ready for the
30120s shots and it's like
30125s but uh yeah I know that was that was a
30127s fantastic Play We nailed the verse of
30129s the days today yeah three three really
30131s tops what's the best best of the day
30132s this was this might have been on the
30134s board but another segment in the house
30136s of the day is that how it works I don't
30138s know brackets though let's take a look
30140s at the brackets because we got some
30142s updates for all of you starting with the
30143s losers bracket we will be seeing the
30146s Gladiators taking on the San Francisco
30148s shot loser goes home yeah number two a
30152s number three seed who would have thought
30154s that this is what we can expect from the
30155s losers bracket and then the Battle of
30157s pink as Danny adopted there can only be
30160s one pink team remaining one of them will
30163s be going home never played with these uh
30165s pink colors because Florida Mayhem in
30167s 2019 they were yellow and red so we've
30169s never had the pink one this is the first
30171s pink bottle the first pink battle ever
30173s how exciting 22 playoffs right here yeah
30176s uh also exciting of course is our
30178s winners bracket uh they will not be sent
30180s home but into the losers bracket we're
30182s gonna see the huge The Outlaws and the
30184s Spitfire so excited to actually see that
30186s match up and of course the Dallas Fuel
30188s and the Dynasty and this is the order
30190s we're gonna play it all in we're
30192s starting with the lower bracket the
30193s Gladiators and San Francisco shock after
30195s that we're gonna see the Hangzhou spark
30197s taking on the Florida ma'am then we're
30199s heading into the Buenos bracket Soul
30201s Dynasty and the Dallas Fuel and the last
30204s match of the day will be fought out
30205s between the London Spitfire and the
30207s Houston Outlaws both those teams
30209s unlikely candidates to actually end up
30211s in the winners bracket and I feel like
30213s both those teams are already playing
30214s with house money because they already
30216s went further than a lot of people would
30217s have expected the winner of that match
30219s is going to be in the top three yeah
30220s either London or Houston in the top
30223s three after 2022 playoffs yeah what that
30227s is nuts exciting as can be it's a crazy
30231s matchup and like long Spitfire
30232s considered the worst team going into the
30233s league now they have a chance to make
30234s top three but also can I just spend like
30237s 15 seconds before we go home to just
30238s talk about Nostalgia because that tell
30240s us that Dallas Fuel and sold dinosaur
30242s match up in 2018 2019 do you remember
30245s the hype when these two franchises came
30248s into the league Dallas fuel envious the
30250s best team in the western region Seoul
30251s Dynasty with lunatic high of course we
30253s haven't seen Seoul Dynasty versus Dallas
30255s fuel for over 1100 days and now finally
30261s wow we're going to see this matchup
30262s between these two legendary franchises
30264s once more and I looked the lineups are
30266s not the same at all but it's traditional
30268s Sports you know it's the Dallas fuel
30270s versus the Seoul Dynasty you're just
30271s like just seeing that graphic makes my
30274s heart wants this is a league it's about
30275s the franchises the players play for
30277s those franchises exactly it's about
30279s history it's about creating storylines
30283s we have history no no we're not what I
30287s mean you're not you're a baby we've been
30290s around since 2016. we're half a decade
