What they do instead is recreate the game from the start and replay all of the inputs from the players and system - with you acting as functionally a new 'live' spectator.

However, jungle clearing is lower stress and time dependant. Additionally the worst case scenarios tend to only happen once as you can pretty easily adjust your positioning to avoid the pr...

Please take care of yourself first and foremost.
And congrats on Gold! I'm really happy you got to hit such a meaningful milestone before leaving!
